Send us a textSeason 11 closes with a conversation that defines what true creative commitment looks like at the highest level of gastronomy.In this season finale of the Chef JKP Podcast, Chef JKP is joined by Carmen Rueda Hernandez, Executive Pastry Chef of Bricks Dessert and one of the most quietly influential pastry chefs working today.From a small village in the mountains of Spain to the kitchens of El Bulli and The Fat Duck, Carmen's journey is not driven by titles or shortcuts, but by curiosity, discipline, and an uncompromising respect for craft.This conversation traces her evolution from a young cook obsessed with meat and fish to a pastry chef who found her voice through chocolate, research, and storytelling. Carmen speaks candidly about unpaid stages, 14-hour days, creative pressure at the world's most demanding kitchens, and the mental resilience required to grow without losing yourself along the way.She reflects on working during El Bulli's final season, rebuilding The Fat Duck's menu from scratch, leading experimental research kitchens, and why pastry is not about sweetness but about balance, texture, memory, and emotion.The episode also dives deep into her work in Dubai, where she built Bricks as the Middle East's first dessert-only fine dining restaurant. Carmen explains how storytelling shapes every menu, why education is still the biggest challenge, and how trust, repetition, and patience are essential when introducing new ideas to diners.At its core, this is a conversation about mastery. About staying curious. About knowing when to push, when to listen, and why greatness is built slowly, choice by choice.A fitting end to a season focused on growth in all its forms.WHAT YOU WILL HEAR IN THIS EPISODE• Growing up in rural Spain and developing curiosity through observation• Choosing culinary school over economics on instinct• Discovering pastry through chocolate and laboratory kitchens• The reality of unpaid stages and long working hours• Working at El Bulli during its final season• Discipline, structure, and calm at the world's top kitchens• Rebuilding creativity at The Fat Duck through research and psychology• Leading experimental kitchens under extreme pressure• Competing at the World Chocolate Masters• Why dessert is about balance, not sweetness• Building Bricks as a dessert-only fine dining concept• Advice for young chefs on repetition, patience, and masteryCHAPTERS00:00 Season finale introduction04:10 Childhood food memories and curiosity09:30 Choosing culinary over economics15:20 Early kitchen realities and work ethic22:10 Discovering pastry through chocolate30:40 Moving to France and classical training42:00 Joining El Bulli55:20 Lessons from the world's top kitchen68:10 The Fat Duck and experimental research86:40 Competition mindset and pressure104:30 Creating Bricks in Dubai136:20 Final reflections and advicePROUDLY BROUGHT TO YOU BY POTATOES USAPotatoes USA represents America's potato growers and champions chefs, home cooks, and food lovers across the world.

What does it really mean to walk in spiritual authority? In this episode, I sit down with my Aunt Ruth — pastor, counselor, and teacher — to talk about identity, intimacy with God, and living with confidence rooted in Christ. We explore why authority isn't about performance or perfect prayers, but about knowing who you are as a daughter of God. This conversation touches on unanswered prayers, singleness, disappointment, and learning to trust God even when life doesn't unfold the way you expected. If you're longing to walk boldly in your faith without striving, this episode will encourage and ground you.

"Your feelings aren't the problem. They're the guidance." What if the real reason relationships hurt so much isn't who you're with, but how you relate to yourself? In this profound and eye-opening conversation, Dr. Margaret Paul, bestselling author and creator of Inner Bonding, joins Kute Blackson to dismantle some of the most common  and damaging myths about love, relationships, self-worth, and responsibility. This episode goes far beyond romantic relationships. It dives into the invisible emotional systems we carry into marriage, parenting, friendships, spirituality, and even our sense of purpose. You'll discover why chemistry is often confused with love, why "being nice" can actually be self-betrayal, and how many of us unknowingly abandon ourselves; then, wonder why relationships feel exhausting, painful, or empty. Timestamps (00:02:30) - What a healthy relationship really is (getting love vs. sharing love) (00:05:18) - Why we're attracted to the wrong people (00:08:26) - Emotional responsibility in relationships (00:11:56) - Self-care vs. true self-love (00:14:59) - What the inner child actually is (00:19:54) - How to work with anger, desire, and intense emotions (00:28:49) - Perfectionism, control, and false beliefs (00:37:29) - Relationship systems that sabotage love (pull,resist, compliance) (00:40:35) - How self-betrayal affects health and vitality (00:42:11) - Discovering if relationships heal after infidelity (00:45:07) - "I did nothing wrong" and hidden dynamics (00:46:32) - Why compliance is not love Questions I Ask What actually defines a healthy relationship? Why do we keep choosing the same kind of partner even when it hurts? If no one is responsible for our happiness, what is our responsibility to each other in love? Can relationships truly recover from infidelity? And how?  How do parents raise emotionally healthy children without creating dependence? Is compliance really a form of control? What advice would you give your younger self if you could start again? In This Episode, You'll Learn… Why love alone isn't enough to make a relationship work The difference between sharing love and needing it Why chemistry can feel powerful and still be destructive How self-abandonment silently sabotages intimacy Why being "nice" and compliant kills desire What emotional responsibility really means (and what it doesn't) Whether trust can be rebuilt after betrayal How learning to love yourself changes every relationship Get in Touch: Email me at kuteblackson@kuteblackson.com Visit my website: www.kuteblackson.com   Resources with Kute Blackson: Purpose Summit: www.purposesummit2026.com Register now!   Kute's Life changing Path to Abundance & Miracles : https://www.8levelsofgratitude.com   Free masterclass: Learn The Manifestation secret to Remove Mental Blocks & Invisible Barriers to Attract The Life of Abundance You Desire.

Alex is an associate professor of psychology at Vanderbilt University where he heads the Maier Lab. His work in neuroscience spans vision, visual perception, and cognition, studying the neurophysiology of cortical columns, and other related topics. Today, he is here to discuss where his focus has shifted over the past few years, the neuroscience of consciousness. I should say shifted back, since that was his original love, which you'll hear about. I've known Alex since my own time at Vanderbilt, where I was a postdoc and he was a new faculty member, and I remember being impressed with him then. I was at a talk he gave - job talk or early talk - where it was immediately obvious how passionate and articulate he is about what he does, and I remember he even showed off some of his telescope photography - good pictures of the moon, I remember. Anyway, we always had fun interactions, even if sometimes it was a quick hello as he ran up stairs and down hallways to get wherever he was going, always in a hurry. Today we discuss why Alex sees integration information theory as the most viable current prospect for explaining consciousness. That is mainly because IIT has developed a formalized mathematical account that hopes to do for consciousness what other math has done for physics, that is, give us what we know as laws of nature. So basically our discussion revolves around everything related to that, like philosophy of science, distinguishing mathematics from "the mathematical", some of the tools he is finding valuable, like category theory, and some of his work measuring the level of consciousness IIT says a whole soccer team has, not just the individuals that comprise the team.

In this heartfelt replay episode, we dive deep into the often-unspoken challenges of living in the swinging lifestyle, particularly the persistent stigma that can make even the most confident couples feel isolated or judged. We share raw, personal stories of navigating societal misconceptions, family reactions, and internal doubts, while reflecting on how these hurdles ultimately strengthened relationships and sense of self. It's a candid conversation that reminds us that embracing the lifestyle isn't always easy, but acknowledging the struggles is the first step toward true freedom. What makes this episode truly special is the uplifting focus on community, the lifeline that transforms isolation into belonging. From discovering supportive online groups to attending events where deep connections are forged, we highlight how finding “your people” in the lifestyle provides validation, friendship, and an unparalleled sense of home. Whether you're new to the scene or a seasoned couple, this episode will leave you inspired, reassured, and reminded of the incredible power of shared experiences in overcoming stigma and building lasting bonds.

In this episode of The Way of the Wolf, Sean Barnes sits down with entrepreneur James Rasmussen to unpack the real story behind building, scaling, and exiting a business in the oil and gas services industry. James shares how he and his brothers launched a company out of necessity, scaled revenue aggressively in the first year, and navigated the realities most entrepreneurs are never warned about, including cash flow strain, slow-paying customers, payroll pressure, and the emotional weight of being responsible for employees' livelihoods. The conversation goes deep into hard-earned lessons on saying no to customers, structuring credit, building trust with buyers, negotiating an exit without ego, and why timing can matter more than valuation. James also reflects on leadership during downturns, the impact of COVID, and what he would do differently if he were building again today. This episode is an unfiltered look at entrepreneurship, leadership, and exit planning from someone who has lived it.   Podcast Show Notes – Episode 262 | 12.30.2025 Episode Title: Why Giving Matters More Than You Think!   Key Moments 00:00 – Sean introduces James Rasmussen and why he respects his character 01:05 – The real reason James started a business: “We were tired of getting laid off.” 02:12 – Discovering a market gap: API standards and non-destructive testing 03:16 – Educating the industry and building a niche with little competition 04:53 – The bank story: asking for $80K and getting a $17K line of credit instead 06:30 – Bringing family in: James hires his mom to get the books right 07:32 – The certification grind and becoming “unstoppable” once trained 08:36 – Integrity moment: choosing people over money because his brothers use the equipment 09:41 – Six months in: ramping to $150K–$200K/month revenue 10:08 – How he scaled fast: part-time help, hiring smart, and paperwork discipline 11:25 – The cash-flow reality: customers dragging payments out to 180–190 days 12:42 – The hard skill: saying no and setting credit limits 13:33 – Sean's “worst customer” story and why cash flow is survival 14:58 – “It's a gift until they pay you.” (game-changing mindset) 16:18 – Corporate vs field tension in oil & gas—and why it hurts vendors 18:06 – Exit wasn't planned: how the opportunity “fell in their laps” 19:48 – Trust builds the deal: friendships formed before negotiation 21:23 – Negotiation: low offer vs “I want $10M” and then getting serious fast 23:32 – Why it worked: alignment, not greed, and they really wanted the people 25:17 – The hidden stress of leadership: 15 families depending on you 29:26 – Biggest lesson: buy assets to increase valuation 30:29 – Exit advice: negotiate employee contracts like your future depends on it 31:02 – Timing matters: sold in Nov 2019, COVID hit months later 33:44 – COVID layoffs + whiplash rehiring: brutal leadership reality 38:09 – Final advice: be goal-oriented, be fair, and make sure both sides win   Key Takeaways Scaling a business quickly without losing integrity Managing cash flow and receivables under pressure Why relationships matter more than leverage in an exit Leadership responsibility and the weight of payroll Lessons learned from selling at the right time   Guest: James Rasmussen LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/james-rasmussen-374847257/   Host: Sean Barnes Website: https://www.wolfexecutives.com   https://www.seanbarnes.com LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/seanbarnes/ https://www.linkedin.com/company/wolfexecutives https://www.linkedin.com/company/thewayofthewolf/ LinkedIn Newsletter: https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/7284600567593684993/ The Wolf Leadership Series: https://wolfexecutives.com/wolf-leadership-series/ YouTube: youtube.thewayofthewolf.com Twitter: https://x.com/the_seanbarnes https://x.com/wolfexecutives Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/the_seanbarnes https://www.instagram.com/wolfexecutives https://www.instagram.com/the_wayofthewolf TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@the_seanbarnes Email: Sean@thewayofthewolf.com Audible: https://www.audible.com/pd/The-Way-of-the-Wolf-Podcast/B08JJNXJ6C Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2BTGdO25Vop3GTpGCY8Y8E?si=ea91c1ef6dd14f15

She founded her practice, Restoring to Health With Homeopathy, in 2022 to help individuals restore wellness naturally, with a special focus on autoimmune disorders. Kelley's journey into homeopathy is deeply personal, inspired by her own healing experience, and she now brings that same hope and dedication to every client. She is passionate about supporting people from all walks of life, with a particular compassion for those navigating chronic illness and immune dysfunction, believing that homeopathy can be a powerful tool on the path to true restoration. Angela Pierce-Jones began her homeopathy journey straight out of high school at 17 and went on to complete a Master's Degree in Homeopathy in Durban, South Africa, in 2002. She has been dedicated to learning and practicing homeopathy ever since. A mother of two teens, she has lived in Perth since 2013, bringing both personal and professional experience to her practice. Elaine Macdonald studied homeopathy at the Centre of Homeopathic Education in the UK and moved from Ireland to Perth in 2011. Her personal journey with homeopathy began when she used holistic approaches, including the GAPS diet, chelation, and homeopathy, to help her son, who was diagnosed on the spectrum, ultimately regain his health. Elaine now focuses on hormones, peri-menopause, thyroid health, heavy metal toxicity, and men's health, combining her expertise with holistic movement as a Gyrotonic® trainer. She practices both online and in-person in Currambine and is passionate about helping others find natural and holistic paths to wellness.

She has a particular interest in mental health, grief and trauma, fears and phobias, female hormonal health, and supporting neurodiverse individuals, using remedies to gently stimulate the body's natural healing abilities. Her own experiences with homeopathy, including navigating personal loss, have deepened her empathy and shaped how she supports her clients today.

Jagoda Salewska is a homeopath with a background in pharmacy, blending her clinical knowledge with holistic healing.

She has trained and worked internationally, including at Ainsworths Homeopathic Pharmacy in London, and has explored therapies like applied kinesiology, Bach Flower remedies, and Craniosacral Therapy to enhance her practice. Jagoda provides consultations for both humans and animals, addressing acute and chronic issues, and takes a deeply intuitive, personalized approach to each case. Her practice is grounded in listening, analyzing, and guiding patients toward holistic wellness.

In this special episode of Midlife AF, I guide you through the first part of my three-day Festive alcohol reset designed especially for the wild, wobbly space between Christmas and New Year. I share how I went from looking “fine” on the outside - successful career, running half marathons, oysters and champagne - to feeling utterly broken inside, waking at 3am gripped by shame, anxiety, and promises to myself I couldn't keep. I introduce a different, deeply compassionate way to change your relationship with alcohol - one that doesn't rely on willpower, punishment, or labels, and doesn't even require you to stop drinking to begin. We explore grounding, awareness, and self‑trust, and I explain why you drink for very valid reasons, how dopamine hijacks your brain, and why self‑compassion (not self‑criticism) is the heart of sustainable change. You'll also hear about my work with women in midlife, my own journey through burnout, bullying at work, neurodivergence, and parenting quirky teens, and how becoming alcohol free has allowed me to become the calm space in my family's chaos. This is an invitation to pause, get curious, and start gently repairing your relationship with alcohol - and with yourself. Episode Highlights I created this three‑day Festive Reset as a gentle space between Christmas and New Year to repair, reconnect, and refresh your relationship with alcohol. You absolutely do not need to stop drinking to start this work; you can change your relationship with alcohol while still drinking. My approach goes deeper than “top 10 tips” and willpower - it's built on neuroscience, psychology, and compassionate inquiry. I share my own story: from high‑functioning, overachieving, “healthy” drinker to burned‑out, anxious, and waking at 3am full of shame. On the outside I looked like I had it all together; on the inside I felt like a terrible mum, partner, and person constantly failing herself. Alcohol was my off‑switch from a life crammed with caregiving, a demanding corporate job, neurodivergent kids, and zero bandwidth. Discovering my own and my children's neurodivergence reframed so much of my past drinking as a coping strategy, not a moral failing. Today I'm happily alcohol free, and far more able to be the “calm space” in my world - even when life is still messy and hard. We start this episode with grounding and breathwork to show how regulating your nervous system can give you what you're seeking from that first drink. A key goal is rebuilding self‑trust after years of making and breaking promises to yourself about when and how much you'll drink. Awareness work (like my awareness worksheets) helps you see your triggers, patterns, routines, and the real reasons you drink. Everything you do with alcohol, you do for a reason - usually to escape suffering (loneliness, stress, overwhelm, boredom, pain). Self‑compassion is the core of this methodology: we swap judgment for curiosity and punishment for kindness. I lean on Kristin Neff's three components of self‑compassion: self‑kindness, common humanity, and mindfulness (you have experiences; you're not your experiences). Shame and willpower‑based approaches often keep people “white‑knuckling” sobriety for years without real freedom. Dopamine is a survival chemical: your brain thinks alcohol is vital because it delivers a fast, powerful dopamine hit when you're dysregulated. When you “slip,” instead of spiraling into blame, you can ask, “What was going on for me? How was I feeling? What did I need?” Community - especially among women who “get it”—is incredibly healing; you realize you're not uniquely broken, you're completely human. The ultimate aim is a take it or leave it relationship with alcohol and a much more loving, trusting relationship with yourself.

In this episode of the Smart Real Estate Coach Podcast, I'm hanging out with someone who's been in the trenches in some of the toughest rental markets and came out retired on a Florida beach — Ron Faraci. Ron has owned and managed several hundred low-income rentals, transformed ugly, problem portfolios into highly profitable ones, and ran CT REIA, the fifth-largest real estate investors association in the country. He's also the author of Confessions of a Landlord and creator of the now-famous 31-page "Bulletproof Lease."     We unpack how Ron quit his job, cashed out his 401(k), and went all-in on class C/D "ghetto-adjacent" properties, why he cares more about terms than price, and how he used forced appreciation and systems to retire in his mid-40s. He shares real-world landlording tactics—no garbage disposals, painted "magic handles," orange-coated copper, even canine-unit letters to chase off drug dealers—plus why he runs his business with "no mercy, no quarter" and a lease tenants initial 80+ times.   If you're a landlord, property manager, or aspiring buy-and-hold investor who wants cash flow, control, and fewer headaches, this conversation is a masterclass in how to make tough rentals profitable without losing your mind.   Key Talking Points of the Episode   00:00 Introduction 01:03 Who is Ron Faraci?  02:30 Semi-retired in St. Augustine, FL (and why the beach isn't "enough") 03:13 Blue-collar beginnings, LA sales job, and a fear of losing it all 04:34 Quitting the job, cashing in his 401K and burning the boats 05:05 Discovering creative financing early in his real estate career 06:02 Finding his tribe in CT REIA and buying it 07:11 Selling CT REIA and realizing that there's no finish line 08:45 Why joining your local REIA is key to getting started 10:20 Macro curveballs & building your "pivot muscle" 11:16 The pivot during COVID: Zoom meetings & over-delivering value 12:44 The money in tough, low-income areas 13:30 The million-dollar "worst two-family" example 14:02 No mercy, no quarter: If you want a friend, buy a puppy 15:16 The importance of knowing your fastball and letting someone else run your business 19:17 Appreciation vs. forcing NOI with cap rates as multipliers 20:38 What doesn't belong in low-income units 22:24 Magic handles, dirty copper & fly-free trash cans 25:30 Clearing out drug dealers with a single letter 27:57 The story behind The Bulletproof Lease 28:31 Where to find a copy of the Bulletproof Lease   Quotables   "You grow up with no money, you're stressed about having no money.

#726 Former corporate lawyer turned creative entrepreneur, Shinah Chang shares the real (and refreshingly honest) journey of building a business that actually feels aligned. In this episode hosted by Kirsten Tyrrel, Shinah breaks down how she went from a risk-averse, straight-line “traditional success” path to bootstrapping a calligraphy brand — first through custom client work (weddings, luxury events, brand activations), then by shifting into teaching and scalable online courses. Shinah talks about the mindset shift from hobbyist to business owner, how to market a premium creative service, why you don't need to be “years ahead” to teach, and what it looked like to scale to nearly $1M in revenue during the pandemic — only to step back, reset, and rebuild a leaner business with more freedom. If you've ever wondered whether entrepreneurship will really make you happier — or just bring your old patterns with you — this conversation is for you! What we discuss with Shinah: + Corporate lawyer burnout + Leaving with no plan + Discovering calligraphy as an outlet + Bootstrapping creative income + Crooked Calligraphy niche + Landing premium clients + Networking over viral marketing + Teaching before feeling “ready” + Scaling with online courses + Redefining success and alignment Thank you, Shinah!

40 Trips to France: Plus a French Christmas Feast with Annie & Elyse opens with host Annie Sargent welcoming back longtime traveler Janice Chung, who has now visited France 40 times. This episode explores why France keeps calling people back and how repeat travel changes the way you experience the country. Listen to this episode ad-free Janice explains why France feels like home to her. She talks about slowing down, speaking French even when it's imperfect, and choosing experiences over checklists. She shares how she plans trips around things that excite her. Sometimes it's a race, like the Adidas 10K in Paris. Sometimes it's a scenic train ride in the Ardèche. Other times it's simply walking for hours and letting the day unfold. Annie and Janice discuss favorite regions, especially lesser-known places like the Aveyron. They talk about beautiful villages, local food like aligot, and why these areas remain less touristy. Janice also explains how she mixes trains, rental cars, biking, and walking depending on where she goes. This episode also looks at how France has changed over the decades. Janice remembers dirtier streets, heavier smoking, and more car traffic. Today, she notices cleaner cities, contactless payments everywhere, and easier trip planning thanks to technology. Prices have gone up, especially in Paris, but great value still exists outside major cities. The episode ends with a festive magazine segment. Annie Sargent and Elyse Rivin talk about French Christmas traditions. They cover chocolate, foie gras, oysters, cheese, bûche de Noël, and how bakeries prepare for the holidays. It's practical, warm, and very French. If you love real conversations about travel, food, and life in France, this episode is for you.
