Do you struggle with feeling like your happiness lives ‘out there' in the future – in the next partner, the next job, the next milestone?  In this episode of the Healing + Human Potential Podcast, I sit down with Dr. Judith Joseph, a renowned psychiatrist and researcher, to explore the difference between the happiness we chase and the joy we cultivate. Together, we unpack why so many high performers confuse burnout with depression — and how to rediscover a grounded, internally sourced sense of aliveness. Dr. Joseph shares the subtle signs of high-functioning depression, how unprocessed trauma can hide beneath busyness, and practical ways to reconnect with yourself. You'll learn her Five V's framework — Validate, Vent, Values, Vitals, and Vision — plus the 5-4-3-2-1 sensory practice to return to the present moment and healthy ways to release emotion without “trauma dumping.” We also dive into her latest research on joy in the digital age — including why two weeks without a smartphone can lift mood as powerfully as an antidepressant. You'll walk away with simple, science-backed tools to reset your nervous system, protect your mental health, and design your own blueprint for lasting joy and wellbeing.   0:00 – 1:20 Setting the frame: Why we chase happiness externally and how science tallies “points of joy.” 1:20 – 3:40 Joy vs. happiness: cultivating an internal resource for resilience (presence over postponement). 3:40 – 6:20 Burnout or depression? The stigma, the “always on” brain, and signs of high-functioning depression. 6:20 – 8:05 Inner restlessness, anhedonia, and why “I can't relax” persists even away from stressors. 8:05 – 10:15 The 5-4-3-2-1 practice: a sensory ritual to reclaim presence (mindful eating, savoring, connection). 10:15 – 12:05 Make it routine: how predictability settles your nervous system (Dr. Judith's coffee ritual). 12:05 – 14:30 “Pathologically productive:” succeeding on paper, suffering in silence — a 2020 wake-up call. 14:30 – 16:35 Why prevention matters: studying high-functioning depression before a full breakdown. 16:35 – 18:30 Not all trauma is “capital-T”: neglect, scarcity, and the invisible experiences that shape us. 18:30 – 21:05 Scarcity trauma vs. scarcity mindset: epigenetics, inherited behaviors, and overworking on autopilot. 21:05 – 23:00 Distinguishing love of learning from fear-driven achievement; checking the operating system. 23:00 – 25:10 The Five V's (part 1): Validate (name what's true) and Vent (without trauma dumping). 25:10 – 27:00 Healthy venting: emotional consent, reciprocity, journaling, prayer, and crying (90-second waves). 27:00 – 28:40 The Five V's (part 2): Values—prioritizing the priceless over the performative. 28:40 – 30:35 Collective & vicarious trauma: protecting your brain in a 24/7 news cycle. 30:35 – 32:10 RESET method: Realize, Educate, Strategy, Expectations, Thoughtfulness (boundaries with tech). 32:10 – 34:10 Smartphones & joy: why a “flip-phone fortnight” can feel like an antidepressant (more sleep, nature, connection). 34:10 – 35:10 The self-scrutiny trap: always seeing our own face, rising criticism, and lost social joy. 35:10 – 36:30 Digital age sanity: sleep hygiene, light exposure, and device boundaries that restore your brain. 36:30 – 37:35 “Understand the science of your happiness”: mapping your bio-psycho-social fingerprint. 37:35 – 39:00 The Five V's (part 3): Vision—plan your joy and celebrate small wins daily. 39:00 – 40:00 Closing: Joy heals communities; permission to feel good now + where to connect with Dr. Judith.   === Want to go deeper on healing trauma?

All throughout this past month we've dedicated our focus to each of the elements—Fire, Earth, Air, and Water—and in that time we've been exploring literal and metaphorical examples of them in an individual sense. And yet, another branch of the conversation began to organically take form: how the elements compare and come together. Inspired by the amazing conversations inside That Witch School, and in my own personal experience moving through the Elemental Magick series, today I'm bringing you an episode that serves as an important bridge from this series into our next. Blending and distinguishing the different elements is a perfect way to practice and hone in on your energetic practice, intuitive abilities, and spirit work.★|| T H E  N E I G H B O R H O O D ||Watch full episodes on my YouTube channel!Join us in That Witch School

At the Heart Failure Society of America (HFSA) Annual Scientific Meeting 2025, hosts Muthiah Vaduganathan, MD, MPH, a cardiologist and codirector of the Center for Cardiometabolic Implementation Science at Brigham and Women's Hospital, and Stephen Greene, MD, an advanced heart failure specialist at Duke University School of Medicine, discussed the evolving role of oral diuretic intensification as a potential endpoint in heart failure clinical trials. Historically, endpoints progressed from all-cause mortality to cardiovascular mortality, then to composites that included heart failure hospitalization and urgent outpatient visits. Recent trials have gone further, considering changes in oral loop diuretic therapy as signals of worsening disease. The rationale for including oral diuretic intensification is its frequency, prognostic value, and potential to increase event capture in trials. Data from real-world cohorts and secondary analyses demonstrate that escalation of oral diuretics is associated with increased risks of hospitalization and death, suggesting it is not a benign event. Incorporating these events could enhance trial efficiency by substantially increasing the number of captured endpoints, allowing for smaller and shorter studies while maintaining clinical relevance. However, challenges remain. Definitions vary across studies, raising questions about what constitutes a meaningful intensification—dose doubling, drug class switching, or short-term use of additional diuretics. Distinguishing heart failure–related changes from adjustments for comorbid conditions such as kidney disease or obesity further complicates endpoint validity. Concerns also exist that clinician-driven medication changes may introduce variability or bias unless standardized symptom-based criteria are applied. Despite these complexities, retrospective analyses suggest consistent findings across different statistical approaches, reinforcing the prognostic importance of oral diuretic changes. Broader adoption would require consensus definitions, regulatory acceptance, and frameworks to account for overlapping events, such as escalation followed by IV diuretics or hospitalization. The speakers concluded that oral diuretic intensification represents an important step toward more inclusive and globally applicable trial endpoints that better capture the continuum of worsening heart failure.

Come to a Dehoarding Accountability Zoom Session: http://www.overcomecompulsivehoarding.co.uk/ticket Subscribe to the podcast: https://www.overcomecompulsivehoarding.co.uk/subscribe Podcast show notes, links and transcript: http://www.overcomecompulsivehoarding.co.uk/  Today I'm talking about how being intentional - basically doing things on purpose rather than on autopilot - can genuinely reshape how we deal with hoarding and our stuff. I'll share how intentionality helps us pause, make better decisions, and treat ourselves with more compassion, rather than reacting on impulse or out of habit. Plus, I'll look at how setting small boundaries and choosing to rest on purpose can all be important aspects of real, lasting change. The transformative power of intentionality. Setting the stage: How being intentional relates to what we keep, acquire, or discard. What is Intentionality and Why Does it Matter? Definition: Acting with purpose, consciousness, and awareness. Impact on self-perception: How intentional actions can improve self-esteem and self-compassion. Increasing the distance between stimulus and response. Agency and empowerment: Transition from reactive to deliberate decision-making. Examples (nature walks, acquiring possessions): Using intentionality to shape experiences and choices. Intentionality vs. Reactivity in Hoarding-Related Decisions Reactive behaviours: Impulse acquisitions and the resulting feelings of regret. Intentional decision-making process: Steps and self-questioning (e.g., Do I need this? Does this fit my values?). Intentionality in Dehoarding Emotional barriers: Overwhelm, panic, and high-stakes feelings in hoarding/dehoarding. The value of starting small: Engaging in micro-decisions with thoughtfulness. Shifting mindset: Moving from resentment (“I have to") to choice ("I choose to”). Language and self-talk: The impact of words on perception and action. Boundaries: Establishing and maintaining intentional rules for oneself (e.g., only buying clothing in your current size). Intentional Habits, Rituals, and Boundaries Creating structure: Using rituals (tea, meditation, rewards) to make dehoarding sessions purposeful. Habitual vs. intentional choices: Challenging default behaviors (e.g., always keeping old birthday cards). Self-reflection: Using intentionality to question long-standing personal rules. Intentional Inaction: Choosing Not to Act Recognising when rest is necessary: The difference between intentional rest and giving up. Personal example: Planning for difficult days by intentionally not scheduling activities. Self-compassion: Allowing yourself to rest without self-judgment. Rest, Self-Care, and Challenging Productivity Myths Importance of rest in the decluttering process. Distinguishing between caring rest and avoidance. Encouraging self-compassion and recognising limits. Navigating Grey Areas in Intentionality The challenge of self-deception: When “intentionality” masks hoarding justifications. Tools for discernment: Grounded vs. anxiety-driven decisions. Value alignment: Considering whether choices support personal values and goals. Managing Setbacks and Self-Compassion Responding to slip-ups: Viewing mistakes as data, not failure. Problem-solving: Analysing triggers and adjusting future behaviour. Avoiding all-or-nothing thinking: Reframing setbacks and maintaining momentum. Building an Intentionality Practice The ongoing nature of intentionality: It's a skill developed over time. Practical applications: Small daily decisions (e.g., washing dishes immediately). Mindfulness: Checking in with thoughts, emotions, and physical sensations. Encouragement: Be patient with yourself - progress, not perfection. The cumulative power of intentional decisions.

Every veterinary team has faced it: a client gets angry, raises their voice, and everyone wonders whether or not we should fire them. In this week's episode of The Veterinary Viewfinder, Dr. Ernie Ward and Beckie Mossor, MPA, RVT, unpack one of the most difficult decisions veterinary professionals face: when to dismiss a client and when to repair the relationship. Using a real-life scenario, our hosts explore a situation where a client waited over an hour, understandably became upset, and complained, but didn't threaten or use abusive language. When the client voiced their frustration, the team's immediate response was, “Let's fire them.” Dr. Ward and Beckie discuss why this reaction is becoming more common post-COVID and how practices can avoid over-firing by improving communication, scheduling systems, and team resilience. Listeners will learn practical strategies like: * Distinguishing understandable frustration vs. true abuse. * Using empathy-driven scripts to de-escalate tense situations. * Scheduling tactics, including reserving 10–25% of slots for urgent care. * Coaching CSRs to handle conflict without escalating to dismissal. If your team has ever debated whether to fire a client after a bad interaction, this episode offers a thoughtful framework for protecting your staff, your clinic's reputation, and the client relationships that matter most. #VeterinaryPodcast #VetMed #VeterinaryProfession #VetTechLife #VetClinicLife #VeterinaryMedicine #VeterinaryCommunity #ClinicCulture #VeterinaryLeadership #TeamCommunication #PracticeManagement #ClientCommunication #VetTeamwork

Distinguishing speech from force is essential to eradicating violence in America.

Our study In Matthew chapter 9 continues with verses 10 thru 17. In these verses our Lord is confronted by the religious leaders concerning His social interaction of eating and drinking with the tax collectors and sinners. Jesus said in response, Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick. He then quotes Hosea 6:6, "I desire mercy rather than sacrifice". For I came not to call the righteous but sinners to repentance. Repentance being a change of mind so as to acknowledge Jesus as the Messiah. He desires a relationship with you and me and our fellowship.

1 Corinthians 16:13-14 Let me know what you think of this weeks topic?  The Tightrope Walk: Christian Masculinity in 2025 As a Christian man in 2025, navigating masculinity can feel like walking a tightrope between cultural pressures and biblical truth. Society's expectations and changing norms create unique stigmas, challenging how men express strength, manage emotions, and live out their faith. The real struggle lies in defining a "strong man"—is it the stoic image promoted by culture, or the Christ-like example of servant leadership?   Breaking the "Man Code" Modern culture often prescribes a restrictive "man code" that demands emotional suppression and self-sufficiency. Being a Christian man can clash with this code, leading to stigmatizing judgments from both inside and outside the church.   "Too soft": The biblical call to be gentle, compassionate, and loving can be mislabeled as "soft" or weak by a culture that equates masculinity with aggression and dominance. Christian men can face pressure to be "harder" in their interactions, conflicting with Christ's example of humility and grace. Stoicism vs. emotion: Stoicism, with its emphasis on emotional control, can be an attractive but unbiblical model for men pressured to hide their feelings. However, biblical examples show that genuine strength includes vulnerability and righteous emotion. Jesus, for instance, wept openly and expressed deep sorrow. True strength is found not in suppressing emotions, but in engaging with them in a godly way.   The embarrassment of being counter-cultural As society becomes increasingly secular, Christian men may feel embarrassed or hesitant to openly share their faith. Growing secularism: The pressure to conform to secular values can make Christian beliefs seem outdated or irrelevant. Topics like traditional marriage, gender roles, and biblical authority are often viewed as controversial, making open discussion challenging.   Standing firm vs. fitting in: This tension can lead to a quiet, private faith rather than a bold public witness. The Bible, however, warns against being ashamed of Christ's testimony. Courage is needed to be counter-cultural while remaining gracious and loving. The evolving landscape of roles   Changing cultural norms regarding gender roles also impact how Christian men are perceived in the family, church, and workplace. Balancing roles: Christian men must balance traditional biblical commands with modern societal shifts. For example, a man might need to support his wife's career while still serving as the spiritual leader in the home—a collaborative effort grounded in love and biblical principles.   Leadership and servanthood: The biblical model of leadership is not dominance, but Christ-like servanthood. A Christian man is called to protect, provide, and guide his family with humility, mirroring Christ's sacrificial love for the church.   What is a strong Christian man? Ultimately, a strong Christian man isn't defined by cultural "man codes" but by his commitment to biblical principles. Rooted in Christ: True strength comes from relying on God's power, not one's own. Biblical manhood is Christ-likeness, not a human-made ideal. 1 Corinthians 16:13-14: The Apostle Paul's words offer a powerful summary of biblical masculinity: "Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong. Let all that you do be done in love". This call is not to cultural machismo, but to a courageous faith lived out with integrity and love.   Servanthood and humility: A strong Christian man rejects worldly measures of success and instead prioritizes serving others with humility, just as Jesus did. In 2025, Christian men are called to reject cultural distortions of manhood and embrace the biblical vision: a masculinity defined by Christ, marked by humility, and expressed through courageous, loving action.     would Jesus be considered soft today?   That's a complex question because "soft" is a culturally loaded term that has changed over time. While Jesus's gentle and compassionate nature might be labeled "soft" by some today, the full picture of his ministry shows a powerful, assertive, and challenging figure who would not neatly fit modern categories of masculinity.   Here's a breakdown of how different aspects of Jesus's character would be perceived in today's world: Aspects that might be perceived as "soft"   Compassion for the outcast: Jesus consistently associated with those on the margins of society—tax collectors, prostitutes, the sick, and the poor. In a world that often prizes social status and separates people, this counter-cultural acceptance could be perceived as weak by those who favor exclusivity.   Emotional vulnerability: The Gospels describe Jesus weeping, such as at the death of Lazarus (John 11:35). In some modern contexts, where men are pressured to suppress emotion, this vulnerability might be misunderstood as "soft" or unmanly.   Teachings on humility and non-retaliation: Jesus's sermon on the mount, which teaches turning the other cheek and being meek, directly opposes worldly aggression and pride.   This would clash with modern "man codes" that emphasize a dominant, "alpha male" persona. Servant leadership: By washing his disciples' feet (John 13:1-17), Jesus demonstrated that true leadership is rooted in service and humility. A society that rewards and idolizes power might find this model of leadership to be "soft" or naive.         Confronting hypocrisy: Jesus was not afraid to call out the religious and political leaders of his day for their hypocrisy, pride, and greed. His public rebukes of the Pharisees would still be seen as a bold and unsparing challenge to authority today.   Cleansing the Temple: This is one of the most famously assertive moments in Jesus's ministry. He physically drove out merchants and money changers who were exploiting the faithful. His anger, often called "righteous indignation," was a fierce defense of God's house and an act of holy confrontation.   Authority over spiritual forces: The Gospels describe Jesus casting out demons and commanding unclean spirits with a power that left people amazed. In any era, this kind of supernatural authority would be seen as a display of immense strength, not weakness.   Clear and uncompromising message: Jesus was unwavering in his message about repentance, salvation, and the Kingdom of God. He wasn't a people-pleaser, and his "hard sayings" often caused followers to turn away. His uncompromising nature would be seen as rigid and polarizing in a modern culture that prioritizes relativism and tolerance above all else.   Ultimately, the idea of Jesus being "soft" is a fallacy rooted in a limited or sanitized view of his life. His character was a dynamic blend of radical compassion and unwavering strength. He was gentle and humble, but also fierce and challenging. He was a paradoxical figure who defies simple labels, especially a superficial one like "soft".   what is alpha male The term "alpha male" describes a man who is traditionally viewed as dominant, confident, and a natural leader. However, the concept is highly controversial and is not based on sound scientific or psychological principles. Characteristics associated with the "alpha male" Historically, the alpha male archetype draws on simplistic ideas of animal pack hierarchies and includes traits such as: Dominance: Taking charge in social situations and having a commanding presence. Confidence: Possessing high self-assurance and not being easily swayed by others. Assertiveness: Clearly expressing one's opinions and standing firm in arguments. Competitiveness: Being driven to win and succeed in both personal and professional contexts. Traditional masculinity: Prioritizing traits like physical strength, emotional control, and career ambition. The problematic origins and critiques of the term The entire concept of the "alpha male" is largely debunked and criticized for its flawed origins and harmful impact. Flawed animal research: The term originated from an outdated and mistaken mid-20th-century study of captive wolves. The researcher who coined the term, L. David Mech, later recanted his findings, explaining that the aggressive dominance hierarchy observed was a result of housing unrelated wolves together in an artificial environment, not natural behavior. Wild wolf packs are led by a breeding pair, which are simply the parents of the other wolves in a family unit. Oversimplifies human behavior: Applying this concept to humans forces complex human personalities into rigid, oversimplified boxes like "alpha" and "beta." In reality, people's traits and social positions vary based on context and individual personalities, not a fixed hierarchy. Promotes toxic masculinity: The stereotype encourages men to suppress emotions, avoid vulnerability, and prioritize dominance over empathy. This can lead to anxiety, stress, and relationship issues, while discouraging qualities like emotional intelligence, kindness, and collaboration. Reinforces harmful stereotypes: The idea can be used to excuse negative behavior, such as controlling, aggressive, or dismissive attitudes. It creates a false hierarchy that makes men who don't fit the mold feel inadequate, even though qualities like empathy and kindness are highly valued in both personal and professional settings. The modern perspective Many contemporary discussions of masculinity aim to move beyond the simplistic "alpha male" archetype. Modern leadership and personal development trends emphasize a more balanced approach that combines traditional strengths with a high degree of emotional intelligence, empathy, and humility. A truly effective and respectable leader is often characterized by their integrity, respect for others, and genuine self-worth, rather than their ability to dominate.   what is toxic mascalinity "Toxic masculinity" refers to a set of traditional attitudes and behaviors associated with manhood that are harmful to men themselves, to women, and to society in general. The term does not suggest that all masculinity is inherently bad, but rather that certain narrow, regressive, and extreme aspects of it can be dangerous. Core traits and behaviors Common traits and behaviors associated with toxic masculinity include: Emotional suppression: The belief that men should be stoic and not show emotions like sadness, fear, or vulnerability. The only emotion typically deemed acceptable is anger. Aggression and dominance: Valuing physical aggression, dominance, and a controlling nature as essential indicators of power. Anti-femininity: Rejecting anything perceived as feminine, including certain hobbies, behaviors, or even acknowledging the value of women. This often leads to misogyny and the devaluation of women. Hyper-independence: A refusal to accept help or seek support, viewing reliance on others as a sign of weakness. Sexual aggression and entitlement: Viewing women as sexual conquests and promoting objectification, which can contribute to harassment, sexual assault, and rape culture. Risk-taking behavior: Taking unnecessary risks, often to prove one's toughness or masculinity, which can lead to substance abuse, reckless driving, or dangerous physical activities. The harm of toxic masculinity Toxic masculinity has significant negative effects on everyone it touches, both directly and indirectly. Harm to men Mental and physical health: The suppression of emotions and reluctance to seek help for issues like depression, anxiety, or illness can lead to serious health problems and even contribute to higher rates of suicide among men. Unhealthy relationships: A focus on dominance and emotional insensitivity can prevent men from forming deep, meaningful relationships with partners, friends, and family. Limited personal growth: Adherence to rigid gender roles can hold men back from exploring interests, hobbies, or career paths that are not traditionally masculine. Harm to others Violence: The connection between toxic masculinity and aggression is well-documented, contributing to interpersonal violence, domestic abuse, and broader societal issues of violence. Gender inequality: By valuing dominance and devaluing femininity, toxic masculinity reinforces a patriarchal system that disadvantages women and perpetuates harmful stereotypes. Reinforcing prejudice: It promotes homophobia and discrimination against anyone who doesn't conform to rigid gender norms, creating a hostile environment for LGBTQ+ people. Distinguishing toxic masculinity from healthy masculinity It's crucial to understand that toxic masculinity is not the same as masculinity itself. Positive, healthy masculine traits are often the opposite of toxic ones and can include: Leadership Courage Compassion Integrity A strong work ethic Taking responsibility The concept of toxic masculinity encourages people to acknowledge and address the harmful behaviors that stem from a restrictive and unhealthy view of what it means to be a man, while still celebrating positive masculine attributes.     Redefining Strength: Biblical Manhood in a Shifting Cultural Landscape Navigating the tightrope of Christian masculinity in 2025 As a Christian man, it often feels like you're walking a tightrope. On one side are the expectations of modern culture—the shifting social norms, the pressure to conform, and the constant redefinition of what it means to be a man. On the other side is biblical truth—a timeless vision of manhood that is often misunderstood or outright rejected today. The real struggle is in defining what a "strong man" truly is. Is he the stoic, emotionally repressed image promoted by cultural "man codes"? Or is he a humble, compassionate, and courageous servant leader, modeled after Christ? Breaking the unwritten "man code" Today's culture often pushes a rigid "man code" that demands emotional suppression and self-sufficiency. For a Christian man, this creates an uncomfortable and often painful clash. "Too soft": The biblical call to be gentle, compassionate, and loving is often mislabeled as weak. In a culture that equates masculinity with aggression and dominance, living out Christ's humility and grace can leave a man feeling judged as "soft." Stoicism vs. Godly emotion: The stoic ideal of emotional control is an unbiblical one. The Bible shows that genuine strength includes vulnerability and righteous emotion. Jesus, for instance, wept openly and expressed deep sorrow. True strength isn't found in suppressing emotions, but in engaging with them in a way that honors God. The pressure to be counter-cultural As society becomes more secular, Christian men can feel a growing sense of embarrassment or hesitation when it comes to openly living out their faith. Fitting in vs. standing firm: The pressure to conform to secular values can make Christian beliefs feel outdated. Issues like traditional marriage or biblical authority are often viewed as controversial, and this can push men to a quiet, private faith rather than a bold public witness. Courage in love: However, the Bible warns against being ashamed of Christ's testimony. It takes courage to be counter-cultural while remaining gracious and loving, but that is precisely the calling. Would Jesus be considered "soft" today? To understand biblical manhood, we must look to the ultimate example: Jesus. Would the world today call him "soft"? The answer is complex, because Jesus defies simplistic labels. Aspects that might be perceived as "soft": Compassion for the outcast: Jesus consistently associated with those on the margins of society—tax collectors, the sick, the poor—a counter-cultural acceptance that some might perceive as weak. Emotional vulnerability: He wept at the death of Lazarus (John 11:35), displaying a vulnerability that clashes with the modern standard of emotional suppression. Servant leadership: By washing his disciples' feet (John 13:1-17), Jesus demonstrated that true leadership is rooted in service and humility, a model a power-hungry society might call naive. Aspects that would be perceived as powerful: Confronting hypocrisy: Jesus boldly and unapologetically called out the hypocrisy of religious leaders. Cleansing the Temple: This assertive moment shows his righteous indignation and fierce defense of God's honor. Authority over spiritual forces: He cast out demons and commanded spiritual forces, demonstrating immense strength. An uncompromising message: Jesus was unwavering in his message about repentance and the Kingdom of God, an uncompromising stance that would be seen as rigid and polarizing today. Ultimately, Jesus was a paradoxical figure who combined radical compassion with unwavering strength. He was gentle and humble, yet fierce and challenging. He defies the superficial label of "soft." A vision beyond the "alpha male" The concept of the "alpha male" is a highly flawed and damaging model. Rooted in flawed animal research and oversimplified human behavior, it promotes aggression, dominance, and emotional suppression. This is not the standard for Christian men. Instead, a strong Christian man isn't defined by worldly codes but by his commitment to biblical principles: Rooted in Christ: True strength comes from relying on God's power, not one's own. Biblical manhood is not a human ideal; it is Christ-likeness. A balanced perspective: A Christian man leads with Christ-like servanthood, protecting and guiding his family with humility. He rejects the toxic parts of masculinity while embracing positive traits like courage, integrity, and responsibility. Courage and love: The Apostle Paul's words offer a powerful guide: “Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong. Let all that you do be done in love" (1 Corinthians 16:13-14). This is a call to a courageous faith lived out with love. A call to courageous servanthood In 2025, Christian men are called to reject the cultural distortions of manhood and embrace the biblical vision: a masculinity defined by Christ, marked by humility, and expressed through courageous, loving action. This is not the easiest path, but it is the one that leads to true strength and a life that honors God.

In this episode, Travis is joined by his producer, Eric, to explore one of the most difficult questions in business, creative work, and personal finance: is it time to double down or to walk away? Using viral memes, classic motivational stories, and plenty of real-world examples, Travis breaks down the difference between grit and the sunk cost fallacy. If you've ever wrestled with whether to keep going or to cut your losses, this conversation gives you actionable strategies—and permission—to make your next decision with confidence. On this episode we talk about: The “three feet from gold” story and why it's not always as motivational as it seems Distinguishing persistence from stubbornness in business and creative pursuits The sunk cost fallacy and how it can keep you on the wrong path for too long Timing, luck, technology, and other factors that determine real success The importance of intuition and asking honest questions when deciding to persist or pivot Annie Duke's book "Quit: The Power of Knowing When to Walk Away" and actionable frameworks for tough decisions Top 3 Takeaways 1.  Legendary persistence stories are rare because so few people actually strike gold—sometimes quitting is the healthiest, wealthiest move. 2.  Set clear metrics and timelines: if you're not where you need to be by a set date, give yourself permission to step back and reassess. 3.  Intuition is a powerful guide, but so is honest self-inquiry; journaling and brutal self-questioning can reveal when it's time to change lanes. Notable Quotes "Persistence is great advice—until it's not. The sunk cost fallacy never made anybody wealthy." "You have to be willing to pivot… sometimes persistence is just a fear of letting go and not knowing what comes next." "Set up a metric in your mind… and then if you're still banging your head against the wall at the end, you gotta be willing to pivot." ✖️✖️✖️✖️

An expansive volume featuring over two decades of incisive reflections on race, art and pop culture by one of the greatest artists working today This long-awaited and essential volume collects writings and interviews by Glenn Ligon, whose canonical paintings, neons and installations have been delivering a cutting examination of race, history, sexuality and culture in America since his emergence in the late 1980s. No stranger to text, the artist has routinely utilized writings from James Baldwin, Zora Neale Hurston, Richard Pryor, Gertrude Stein and others to construct work that centers Blackness within the historically white backdrop of the art world and culture writ large. Ligon began writing in the early 2000s, engaging deeply with the work of peers such as Julie Mehretu, Chris Ofili and Lorna Simpson, as well as with artists who came before him, among them Philip Guston, David Hammons and Andy Warhol. Interweaving a singular voice and a magical knack for storytelling with an astute view of art history and broader cultural shifts, this collection cements Ligon's status as one of the great chroniclers of our time. Glenn Ligon was born in the Bronx in 1960. He began as an abstract painter but shifted to text-based works which often incorporate quotes from Black authors. His work can be found in the collections of the Art Institute of Chicago, the Baltimore Museum of Art and the Museum of Modern Art, New York. Learn more about your ad choices.

Listen in as Nick is joined by Darren Clifford, the Founder of Adapt [us] Capital, a new venture capital fund and venture builder focused on investing and building companies at the intersection of climate adaptation and scalable, profitable businesses. In this episode, Nick and Darren discuss how the climate change, climate investment, and climate mitigation “moment” in 2025 requires new conversations, narratives, and solutions, including more focus on and concerted capital allocation to promoting adaptation-focused efforts alongside other mitigation strategies and innovation. Nick and Darren also explore: Demand Adaptation vs. Resilience Adaptation: Drawing distinctions between "demand adaptation" (businesses and technologies that profitably fulfill emerging needs in a warming world, like air conditioning, cold supply chains, and climate-resilient vacation options) and "resilience adaptation" (efforts to avert loss, price risk, and enhance society's coping mechanisms).Getting creative on narrative reframes: Darren and Nick reframe prevailing climate narratives, such as "net zero," advocating instead for optimizing humanity's overall quality of life and letting go of concepts and targets that no longer serve. They also discuss the need to balance environmental priorities with social connectivity, economic opportunity, resilient infrastructure, and many other components that ladder up to well-being, recognizing that trade-offs between maximum sustainability and human quality of life are often unavoidable, if not necessary.Venture capital's role in scaling adaptation: Nick prompts Darren to answer the “why venture” question, particularly with respect to how venture capital can support a more focused approach to, resource allocation for, and successful scaling of adaptation-focused businesses. This conversation also explores business model innovation, anticipated market sizes for climate adaptation solutions, and the evolving nature of deal flow in the digital and AI-powered world.… and much more.Timestamps:00:01:37 - Introductions00:05:41 – Distinguishing between demand adaptation and resilience adaptation00:09:25 – Reframing outdated climate narratives like net zero00:15:02 - Sustainability and human quality of life: intersections and trade offs00:26:03 - Fund launch and investment strategy00:28:12 - Market opportunities in demand-driven adaptation00:36:05 - The future of demand-driven adaptationLearn more about Darren's work and keep up to date with Adapt [us] Capital on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/adapt-us-capital/+ https://www.linkedin.com/in/djclif/If you love listening to The Keep Cool Show, please leave a 5-star review on Rate My Podcast: https://ratethispodcast.com/keepcoolThank you so much.Plus, you can stay up-to-date on all things Keep Cool here: https://subscribe.keepcool.co/ and follow Nick on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nicholasvanosdol/

Class: Edwards Distinguishing Marks #2

Sometimes saying “yes” too much can really take a toll on you. In this episode, Jill chats with Dr. Sunita Sah, a bestselling author and Cornell professor, about her book Defy: The Power of No in a World That Demands Yes. They break down how constant compliance can affect your emotions, mind, and body, and share strategies for recognizing when it's time to push back. Sunita introduces the concept of a ‘Defiance Compass' to help guide people in acting according to their values. You'll also learn about the difference between going along with something and truly giving consent, how anxiety can arise in difficult situations, and why practicing small acts of defiance can prepare you for bigger, high-stakes moments. Listen and Learn: How can redefining "defiance" from a negative act of resistance to an alignment with true values help us better understand the balance between compliance, consent, and social pressure?Why is defiance better understood as a staged process on a continuum rather than a simple yes/no choice, and how does recognizing tension help us navigate compliance?Distinguishing between true expert intuition and bias-driven gut feelings when making decisions in uncertain situationsWhy is it so difficult for people to resist compliance and obedience in high-pressure situations, and how can practicing defiance help us prepare to say no and prevent harm?How can we recognize the difference between true consent and mere compliance, and what essential elements are needed to ensure a genuine "yes"?Navigating situations where we technically have the freedom to say no, but psychological pressures like insinuation anxiety or fear of consequences make it difficult to speak upHow do insinuation anxiety and the sales pitch effect interact to increase pressure to comply, even when consent is technically present?Overcoming the tension and fear of non-compliance to act in alignment with our values using tools like the Defiance CompassHow you can practice defiance as a skillResources:Defy: The Power of No in a World That Demands Yes: https://bookshop.org/a/30734/9780593445778Sunita's Website: https://www.sunitasah.com/Connect with Sunita on Social Media:https://www.instagram.com/drsunitasahhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/drsunitasah/https://www.tiktok.com/@drsunitasah About Sunita SahDr. Sunita Sah is a national bestselling author, an award-winning professor at Cornell University, and an expert in organizational psychology.

An expansive volume featuring over two decades of incisive reflections on race, art and pop culture by one of the greatest artists working today This long-awaited and essential volume collects writings and interviews by Glenn Ligon, whose canonical paintings, neons and installations have been delivering a cutting examination of race, history, sexuality and culture in America since his emergence in the late 1980s. No stranger to text, the artist has routinely utilized writings from James Baldwin, Zora Neale Hurston, Richard Pryor, Gertrude Stein and others to construct work that centers Blackness within the historically white backdrop of the art world and culture writ large. Ligon began writing in the early 2000s, engaging deeply with the work of peers such as Julie Mehretu, Chris Ofili and Lorna Simpson, as well as with artists who came before him, among them Philip Guston, David Hammons and Andy Warhol. Interweaving a singular voice and a magical knack for storytelling with an astute view of art history and broader cultural shifts, this collection cements Ligon's status as one of the great chroniclers of our time. Glenn Ligon was born in the Bronx in 1960. He began as an abstract painter but shifted to text-based works which often incorporate quotes from Black authors. His work can be found in the collections of the Art Institute of Chicago, the Baltimore Museum of Art and the Museum of Modern Art, New York. Learn more about your ad choices.
