Podcasts about disconnected

In his fourth appearance on The 1000 Hours Outside Podcast, Thomas Kersting—licensed therapist, author, and former school counselor—returns to share what he's witnessed over 25 years on the front lines of youth mental health. From skyrocketing anxiety levels since 2012 to rising oppositional behavior and sleep deprivation, Kersting explains how screens, social conformity, and parental fear have reshaped childhood—and not for the better. But he also offers hope: the solution is far simpler than most realize. With deep warmth and clarity, Kersting makes a powerful case for play, silence, movement, and in-person connection. He affirms that parents should set limits, should pull back from tech, and should fight for childhood as it once was. And yes—he says it loud and clear—parents are absolutely right to nag their children to go outside. This episode is a wake-up call and a rallying cry for families who want something better.

Many of us ask ourselves the honest question: Why is making friends as an adult so hard? At this Talkback, Ben Sciacca, Redeemer's Local Ministry Coordinator, dove into how God created us to live in meaningful community with one another. While the desire for friendship is part of God's good design, the reality is that we live in a time of prevailing loneliness and isolation. Ben was joined by Janet King, Founder of The Gathering Lab. Together, they discussed how to move past small talk into something deeper. They explored what barriers keep us isolated and what fears prevent us from moving beyond our comfort zones. As image-bearers of a loving God, we are hardwired for community, and we hope you'll fight against the digital age that keeps us disconnected.JOIN THE NEXT STEPAt the end, Ben and Janet announced our Summer Circles, which are opportunities coming later this summer to meet and build meaningful friendships right here at Redeemer. If you want to join these gatherings, sign up at The Gathering Lab now. ABOUT TALKBACKSOur Talkbacks are great opportunities to see how our faith engages with the world around us. This summer, we're excited to have four evenings that discuss how the gospel changes how we think about race, politics, the world, and our stories.Each Talkback, we get a chance to hear from a speaker for about 45 minutes before spending about 45 minutes in a Q&A.

“I'm not at all concerned about inflationary pressures – I'm actually worried about the opposite.” Lucas Lloyd says we are in a deflationary environment because tariffs, higher oil prices, etc. hurt the economy, slowing growth. “I think the Federal Reserve is disconnected, and a little arrogant.” He thinks AI will displace jobs more than it creates them.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

In this episode of A Really Good Cry, Radhi Devlukia dives into the trending idea of “romanticizing your life”—and why it’s so much more than an aesthetic.

In this impactful solo episode of Getting There, Brogan delves into the pressing issue of children's mental health in today's digital age. Highlighting the growing disconnect despite increased connectivity, the episode explores how excessive screen time is linked to serious attention issues, with children spending more than two hours a day being significantly more likely to be diagnosed with ADHD. The conversation emphasises the dangers of seemingly harmless gaming and kids' apps, which are designed to profit from children using manipulative psychological techniques similar to those found in gambling. With shocking statistics revealing that advertising firms can collect up to 72 million data points on children by the age of 13, the host underscores the urgent need for awareness and action to protect our children from the hidden costs of digital engagement.

In deze diepgaande aflevering van Techzine Talks duiken Coen en Erik in de complexe wereld van sovereign cloud oplossingen. Ze ontleden hoe Microsoft, Google Cloud en AWS vergelijkbare beloftes doen over datasoevereiniteit en onderzoeken de cruciale vraag: kan Europa wel zonder deze Amerikaanse hyperscalers? De podcast biedt een kritische analyse van datacenters, encryptie-oplossingen, key-management, confidential computing, Europese partners en personeel, maar ook de praktische en financiële uitdagingen van een echt Europees cloud-alternatief.Aanleiding voor deze discussie was een Microsoft AI-event waar CEO Satya Nadella sprak over sovereign cloud, wat Coen inspireerde om dit maar eens te duiden in een Techzine Talks aflevering. Terwijl steeds meer Europese organisaties en overheden zorgen uiten over datasoevereiniteit, investeren Amerikaanse cloudgiganten miljarden in Europese datacenters en sovereign cloudoplossingen.Hoofdstukken:00:00 Introductie en aanleiding voor het onderwerp 02:15 Wat is sovereign cloud en waarom is het zo belangrijk geworden?04:20 De Amerikaanse Cloud Act en de implicaties voor Europese data07:30 Key-management en encryptie als beschermingslaag 10:15 Confidential computing uitgelegd 12:40 Disconnected en air-gapped oplossingen voor kritieke omgevingen15:30 Microsoft 365 Local en de beperkingen met Copilot 18:45 De AI-paradox: innovatie versus soevereiniteit 19:20 Transparantie en groeiende Europese zorgen (ICC-case) 23:45 Waarom een volledig Europees alternatief praktisch onhaalbaar is28:15 De enorme investeringen van hyperscalers in Europa 31:50 Is het realistisch om zonder Amerikaanse cloudtechnologie te opereren? 34:00 Conclusie en praktisch toekomstperspectiefDe podcast belicht hoe sovereign cloud oplossingen worden aangeboden door de grote Amerikaanse cloudproviders, maar legt ook bloot waarom een volledig Europees alternatief praktisch en financieel onhaalbaar lijkt. Coen en Erik bespreken de mogelijkheden van key management door Europese partijen, air-gapped oplossingen, en hoe organisaties toch veilig gebruik kunnen maken van Amerikaanse cloudtechnologie zonder hun soevereiniteit volledig op te geven.Een must-listen voor IT-beslissers, beleidsmakers en iedereen die betrokken is bij strategische cloudkeuzes in een steeds complexer geopolitiek landschap.#SovereignCloud #CloudComputing #Microsoft #AWS #GoogleCloud #DataSoevereiniteit #GDPR #CloudAct #Encryptie #AirGapped #TechzineTalks #Cybersecurity #CloudSecurity #EuropeseCloud #Hyperscalers #ConfidentialComputing #ITInfrastructuur #DataPrivacy #TechPodcast #Datacenter #CloudStrategy #DigitaleSoevereiniteit #Microsoft365Local #Copilot #GeneratieveAI #CloudRegulering #GAIA-X #EUCloudInitiative #DataResidentie #KeyManagementAbonneer je op Techzine Talks via Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube of je favoriete podcast-app voor meer diepgaande analyses van enterprise technologie en blijf op de hoogte van de nieuwste ontwikkelingen in de IT-wereld.Bezoek www.techzine.nl voor meer artikelen, analyses en achtergronden over dit en andere enterprise IT-onderwerpen.

Send us a textIn today's solo episode 205, you're invited into an honest and tender conversation about one of the most common—and quietly painful—experiences in long-term relationships: the slow fading of intimacy and sexual connection. If you've ever found yourself asking, “Where did the passion go?” or “Why don't we feel close anymore?”—this episode is for you. This isn't about shame or blame. It's about truth. And it's about love. Together, we'll explore the myth of everlasting passion, the neuroscience behind why desire shifts over time, and the emotional, spiritual, and relational factors that influence our connections.We'll also dismantle one of the most harmful misunderstandings in modern relationships—the belief that sex and intimacy are the same. I'll share real-life client stories that illuminate the path from disconnection to devotion, and how grief, identity shifts, unspoken resentments, and the pace of daily life can quietly create distance. You'll learn why desire doesn't disappear—it gets buried. And with gentle, intentional tending, it can be rekindled. Not as it once was, but as something even more soulful, embodied, and alive.This episode is not just an invitation to reignite your relationship—it's a call to come home to yourself. Whether you're navigating a season of emotional silence, longing for deeper connection, or simply wanting to understand what love needs to grow, I'll offer reflections, practices, and presence to help guide you back to what's sacred because intimacy isn't lost.

Have you ever woken up feeling like your life doesn't fit you anymore—even though, from the outside, everything looks “fine”? In this deeply personal solo episode, Lisa McGuire speaks directly to the soul of the high-achiever who is feeling disconnected, foggy, and flat. If life has started to feel like a copy-paste routine and the spark is gone, this isn't a breakdown—it's a breakthrough. Lisa introduces the concept of identity evolution, a sacred invitation to leave behind the version of yourself built on expectations, and step into the version you were always meant to become. You'll learn why overthinking may be blocking your clarity, how to interpret emotional signals as allies, and discover tangible grounding techniques like breathwork, nature immersion, and somatic awareness to help reconnect with your true self. This episode isn't about performance, hustle, or more doing—it's about remembering who you are at your core. Tune in, exhale, and prepare to come home to yourself. Key Takeaways: Identity evolution is not a crisis—it's a sacred call to realignment. Feeling numb or foggy is often a symptom of energetic overload, not personal failure. Overthinking isn't always the answer—sometimes, the mind is the noise. Your emotions are messengers, not enemies. Grounding techniques reconnect you with your body, intuition, and truth. The life that once impressed others may no longer inspire you—and that's okay. “More” isn't about status, it's about being fully alive. Transformation begins with honoring rest, presence, and emotional truth.

Send us a textIn this episode, we flip the script and discuss how the story would change if Harry was sorted into Slytherin. Enjoy!Topics/Summary:·      Listen to episode 285 about the new cast for the trio here!·      2:13 Harry and Draco are going to become friends. They both have difficult families, and are somewhat alone in the world. They can connect with each other, because the one thing they both want more than anything is a relationship. Harry has no friends or family, and Draco's family doesn't care for him. This would create the perfect environment for them to become friends.·      10:47 Dumbledore and Voldemort's strategies would have been different. Dumbledore has Harry in his circle in the original story, so it is easy for him to reach out. Voldemort is far removed from Harry and spends his time trying to get at him. If Harry was in Slytherin, Voldemort might try to make a relationship with Harry and Dumbledore would have to work hard to get messages and ideas across to Harry. ·      17:52 Harry would feel more disconnected from his parents. Being in their same house is really how he can feel close to them, but if he isn't in the same house, that wouldn't be the case. The people he meets as a Gryffindor can tell him what they were like, but without them, most of his parents is lost to time.·      23:11 Harry's relationship with Sirius would be very different. If Harry is basically a Death Eater, he would be thrilled with Sirius when he breaks out. When he learns that that supporter of Voldemort is his godfather, that would be the best day of his life. Learning that Sirius wasn't a supporter of Voldemort would be a nasty shock. For Sirius, he would be devastated to learn that James and Lily's son is in Slytherin and part of a Death Eater family.Having anything you want to hear or say?

We live in a world where connection is everywhere—our notifications buzz with likes, comments, and DMs. And yet, why does it still feel like something's missing? Why do we scroll through highlight reels, surrounded by digital admiration, yet still feel unseen at the end of the day?   Here's what we rarely admit: we don't need more people in our lives; we need deeper connections. The type of connections where you can be yourself—messy bun, tired eyes, no filters—and feel confident in being loved. The kind where you're not performing or proving, just existing—and that's enough.   Today, let's drop the pressure and talk about genuine relationships. The kind that refreshes your soul instead of draining it. Because you don't just deserve friendships—you were made for them. So, let's dig in and find the ones that remind you that you belong.

Shoes have obvious benefits — but how would our thinking change if we walked barefoot in the woods? Lyanda Lynn Haupt is the author of "Rooted: Life at the Crossroads of Science, Nature, and Spirit." She's coming to Rochester as a guest of the Western New York Land Conservancy. We discuss her feelings about the disconnect that many people feel: disconnected from nature, from the planet, from anything other than a screen. And we explore ways to get reconnected, even in small ways.

In this heart-opening convo, Amy is joined by Dr. Mark Rittenberg as they dive into the radical idea that “Leadership is Love”

Tired. Unmotivated. Disconnected. It's not just your job. It's not just stress. It's your brain—burnt out by overstimulation and the X screen.In this eye-opening video, Dr. Trish Leigh breaks down why so many men feel numb, tired, and emotionally checked out. You'll also hear the story of one of her clients—once angry, flat, and disconnected—who rewired his brain and reclaimed his life.

We are constantly connected to our phones, jobs, networks. Eventually, we get drained, tired, lacking patience. We are connected to an abundance of mundane elements, but neglect the most important aspect of life: our relationship with God.

Dr. Glenn and Phyllis Hill sit down with certified Connection Codes coaches Tanya and James, a couple whose journey into emotional healing began in an unexpected place—deep in a remote part of British Columbia. What started as a midnight podcast listen became a life-altering pursuit of authentic connection. Tanya and James open up about their transformation from emotional shutdown and chronic pain to a marriage bursting with joy, purpose, and practical tools. From ordering the book late at night to leading small groups in their home, launching initiatives in their church, and becoming certified coaches, they share how simple—yet not easy—the journey of emotional fluency has been. Their story is an invitation to bring the tools of Connection Codes into your home, your marriage, your community—and to experience the life-changing impact for yourself.Links and Resources:Download the Core Emotion Wheel: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.connectioncodes.co/cew-podcast⁠⁠⁠Find out how to become a Certified Coach:⁠ ⁠⁠⁠https://connectioncodes.co/certified-coaching⁠⁠⁠⁠Find a coach:⁠ ⁠⁠⁠https://connectioncodes.co/all-coaches⁠⁠⁠⁠Chapters:00:00:00 - Kicking Off the Journey: Meet Tanya & James00:01:11 - A New Chapter Begins: Who Are Tanya and James?00:02:10 - The Moment That Changed Everything: Discovering Connection Codes00:04:34 - Turning Insight Into Action: Bringing Connection Codes to the Community00:06:52 - Real Growth, Real Struggles: Their Personal Transformation Unfolds00:08:48 - A Ripple Effect: Teaching, Leading, and Inspiring Through Change00:09:33 - From Pain to Power: How They Faced Trauma and Chronic Struggles00:11:02 - Unlocking Emotional Power: The Gift of Processing Feelings00:16:36 - Redefining the Classroom: What Happens When You Connect First00:21:25 - From Hurt to Healing: Connection as the Bridge00:23:22 - Ready to Grow?

Marketing technology is meant to simplify growth, but too often, it creates more problems than it solves. Disconnected systems, clunky integrations, and AI tools that require constant tweaking leave businesses buried in inefficiency. Instead of freeing up time, the tech stack becomes another hurdle, demanding more effort just to keep things running. The real advantage isn't just having AI—it's having a system that actually works together, turning data into action without the extra headache. Robert Douglass, a seasoned technologist and founder of Open Strategy Partners, has over 20 years of experience in software and open source. He authored the first Drupal book, spoke before the European Parliament on copyright reform, and produced the Open Goldberg Variations. Today, he introduces the Model Context Protocol, explaining how AI can integrate across platforms to streamline marketing workflows and boost productivity for businesses. His insights highlight the future of AI-driven efficiency in tech and entrepreneurship. Stay tuned! Resources: Open Strategy Partners | Your tech is complex. Your message shouldn't be.

But the sports world, even in a state of group-hate, provides lessons for a fundamental human need that is currently all too absent: connection. Roy Wood Jr., as one of our most prolific comedians, has a million miles of experience at kicking the tires on The Real America. And his rules of the road will surprise you, because they exist less with Obama at the batting cage and somewhere more between Ted Cruz on the sidelines... and the porn gun range. • Watch Roy Wood's new special, "Lonely Flowers" https://www.hulu.com/movie/0bdefff9-def5-4e22-96d9-94fd899f0f83 Learn more about your ad choices.
