Season 7, Episode 4: How does a firm managing $17 billion navigate global real estate through high interest rates and a "hope-driven" market? Today, we sit down with Tim Mooney, partner and global head of real estate and Jim Dunbar, partner and head of real estate lending at Värde Partners.

This sermon centers on Psalm 50:15 as a profound call to authentic faith, contrasting hollow religious ritual with heartfelt dependence on God. It emphasizes that true religion is not about offering sacrifices to satisfy God's needs—since He owns all things—but about recognizing our profound need for Him and responding with humble prayer in times of trouble. The passage presents a gracious command to call upon God in distress, a great promise of divine deliverance, and a glorious result: the believer's inevitable glorification of God, reflecting the ultimate purpose of salvation. Rooted in the reality of human sin and brokenness, the message affirms that God's rescue is comprehensive, restoring not only circumstances but the soul's relationship with Him, and it calls believers to both receive and extend this hope to others in need.

In this thought-provoking episode, host Gabe Howard sits down with child psychiatrist and author Dr. Sami Timimi to challenge some of the most widely accepted ideas in modern mental health care. Drawing from his latest book, “Searching for Normal: A New Approach to Understanding Mental Health, Distress, and Neurodiversity,” Dr. Timimi explores why diagnoses like ADHD, depression, and anxiety may be less about biology and more about cultural context. The conversation dives into how labeling distress can sometimes obscure the real drivers of human experience—life experiences, relationships, and environments. Listeners will learn: the risks of viewing mental health challenges as lifelong disorders how context, development, and adversity shape emotional experiences what a more humane, supportive approach to distress could look like This episode invites listeners to reconsider what it means to be “normal,” and whether our current mental health framework is helping — or limiting — our understanding of the human condition. If you've ever questioned the labels, wondered about overdiagnosis, or wanted a deeper conversation about mental health beyond the surface, this episode is for you. “We have this fantasy that we can live lives that are devoid of any sort of emotional suffering, but that creates a really artificial idea about what life should be like." ~Dr. Sami Timimi, author of Searching for Normal Our guest, Dr. Sami Timimi, is a practicing consultant child and adolescent psychiatrist and psychotherapist in the UK's National Health Service. He has contributed to over forty books on subjects related to critical psychiatry, childhood, psychotherapy, depression, behavioral problems, and cross-cultural psychiatry; authored six books, including “Naughty Boys: Anti-Social Behaviour, ADHD, and the Role of Culture” and “Insane Medicine: How the Mental Health Industry Creates Damaging Treatment Traps and How You Can Escape Them”; co-edited four books, including “Liberatory Psychiatry: Philosophy, Politics and Mental Health with Carl Cohen”; and co-authored two others, including “The Myth of Autism: Medicalising Men's and Boys' Social and Emotional Competence” with Neil Gardiner and Brian McCabe. His most recent book is “Searching for Normal: A New Approach to Understanding Mental Health, Distress and Neurodiversity.” Our host, Gabe Howard, is an award-winning writer and speaker who lives with bipolar disorder. He is the author of the popular book, "Mental Illness is an Asshole and other Observations," available from Amazon; signed copies are also available directly from the author. Gabe is also the host of the "Inside Bipolar" podcast with Dr. Nicole Washington. Gabe makes his home in the suburbs of Columbus, Ohio.

Melody Wright, author of M3 Melody Substack, returns to the show for an in-person episode to discuss the frozen spring selling season and reveals disturbing signs of distress bubbling beneath the surface, including mortgage delinquencies rising at the exact time of year they should be falling. She exposes the "rage delisting" phenomenon where stubborn sellers refuse price cuts despite a massive inventory buildup, explains why the housing shortage narrative is a myth perpetuated by builders seeking a bailout, and warns that prime mortgages are now showing weakness for the first time. Melody argues that a 35-50% price correction is needed for median household income to afford median home prices, with the first wave of 10-12% likely over the next couple years. She reveals a massive shadow inventory wave from boomers that could add 20% more homes each year for the next decade, discusses how investors are fire selling (one investor dumping 300 rentals in a single market), and predicts the back half of 2026 could be "really ugly" as forbearance programs expire. Her advice: sellers should cut prices quickly to avoid cutting further, while buyers should stay patient because "the supply is coming."Links:YouTube; https://www.youtube.com/@m3_melodyX: https://x.com/m3_melodySubstack: https://m3melody.substack.com/Timestamps0:00 Introduction - Melody Wright returns, spring selling season1:59 Housing market assessment - "Take three of another year frozen"5:28 Distress bubbling under the surface8:15 Why the shortage narrative is so pervasive11:46 Tracking 86 markets now 15:05 Most worrisome areas - The delusional northeast16:11 Boomer stubbornness and shadow inventory wave16:38 How big is the shadow inventory? 20% increase for next 10 years18:22 How far do prices need to correct? 35% to 50%20:42 Warning signals24:25 Most important thing overlooked27:36 Base case - 35% to 50% correction over significant time28:46 Spring season warning 29:54 Back half of year could be really ugly30:17 Shortage of affordable homes because they're mispriced30:58 Advice for sellers - Get real appraisal, cut quickly32:36 Advice for buyers - Stay stubborn, wait for math to work33:04 How does this feel different from 2008?36:45 Who's buying now if institutionals are fire selling?37:57 Parting words - Patience for buyers, supply is coming 

Lo stress è una riposta psicofisica che il nostro organismo mette in atto quando percepisce una situazione o un compito importante, pericoloso o urgente.  Tutti ne soffriamo, ma pochi sanno cos'è davvero. In questo video esploriamo la scienza dello stress: perché il nostro cervello si comporta come quello di una zebra in pericolo nella savana anche quando siamo semplicemente davanti a una scadenza di lavoro? Dall'adrenalina al cortisolo, vedremo come questo meccanismo biologico può aiutarci a dare il massimo (Eustress) o, se fuori controllo, danneggiare il nostro corpo e la nostra mente (Distress).

To prevent this, healthcare practitioners must use strategies such as cultural humility to help patients navigate healthcare. Come find the best ways to deliver culturally sensitive care in any setting.

I'm pretty sure you've been in this situation: you're in a group setting of consequence and importance. Maybe it's at work, maybe in school, but something is on the line. In that place are people different from you. They're of a different race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, and you begin to worry about how you are being perceived. Are you an individual in everyone's eyes or are they seeing you for the group you represent? Does your behavior match the stereotype that exists for people like you in the eyes of these other folks? Claude Steele, distinguished social psychologist, calls this churn in his new book, Churn: The Tension That Divides Us and How to Overcome It. He says it can have an effect on your mental health, particular in the areas of depression and anxiety. Steele explains the fascinating research and experiments that led him to explore the idea of churn and offers ideas on how to stop feeling it and establish yourself as an individual.

This sermon centers on David's transformation from a man driven by survival to one defined by faith, as he responds to God's call to rescue Keilah despite fear and uncertainty. Through the repeated inquiry of the Lord—highlighted by the use of the ephod as a symbol of divine access—David exemplifies a life rooted in continual dependence on God, contrasting sharply with Saul's pride and paranoia. The narrative reveals that God uses hardship and risk to shape character, calling believers beyond comfort and safety into trust, prayer, and obedience. The preacher emphasizes that, like David, Christians are not bound by ritual or intermediaries, but can boldly approach God's throne through Christ, the ultimate High Priest, with confidence and gratitude. Ultimately, the message calls the audience to reject the instinct to retreat into spiritual caves, embracing instead a posture of persistent prayer, faith, and reliance on God's will, even when the path is unclear.

The Blasters & Blades PodcastForget the “Damsel in Distress”—we're talking about the women who bring the distress. From Ellen Ripley and Sarah Connor to Molly Weasley and beyond, motherhood in speculative fiction is often the ultimate catalyst for heroism. Join our panel as we celebrate the mothers who fight, lead, and sacrifice across worlds of magic and machines. We're discussing why “Motherhood as a Superpower” is one of the most compelling tropes in the genre and which fictional moms we'd want in our corner when the monsters come knocking.

message me: what did you take away from this episode?  Ep 113  (http://ibit.ly/Re5V) Wendy Foster on moral distress in midwifery and how safer birth starts with listening#PhDMidwives #research #midwifery #moraldistress #saferbirths #magnesium #diabetesresearch link t.ly/Gy3Y4A midwife can do everything “right” and still walk away feeling like they've failed, not because of skill, but because the system makes the right care impossible. That feeling has a name: moral distress. We're joined by Wendy Foster, a midwife, educator, researcher and union advocate, to unpack how moral distress shows up in Australian maternity care and why it matters for burnout, workforce retention, and women's experiences of birth.We trace Wendy's path from direct-entry midwifery to rural and regional practice, then into education, where she starts noticing how training structures can pull students away from woman-centred care. We talk continuity of care requirements, the hidden workload of “chasing numbers”, and why the real costs land as time, fatigue and money. Wendy also shares how an unexpected health detour sparked an honours deep dive into magnesium and diabetes links, and how research skills still pay off even when a study can't be completed.From there, the conversation moves into the research that helped shift national thinking on placement payments, and into the work she now does with the Australian Nursing and Midwifery Federation (ANMF), including enterprise bargaining issues like workload recognition and the push for fairer professional conditions. We finish with the simplest (and hardest) reset: start by finding out what's important to women, then rebuild policy and service design around choice and relationships.If you found this valuable, follow the podcast, share it with a colleague, and leave a review so more people can find these conversations.

If you have ever finished a round of tapping and felt more upset than when you started, you are not doing it wrong. In fact, when you feel worse after tapping, it usually means something productive is happening underneath the surface. This is one of the most common questions I get from listeners, and the answer changes how you interpret every round of tapping you will ever do. Key Takeaways Feeling worse after a round of tapping is common, and in most cases it signals that you are closer to real change, not further from it. Any tapping round has only three possible outcomes: you feel better, nothing changes, or you feel worse. Each outcome tells you exactly what to do next. When intensity rises during tapping, it usually means one of two things: you have tuned in more fully to an emotion you were already carrying, or a deeper related issue has surfaced. A rising SUDS number (Subjective Units of Distress, the 0 to 10 scale used in EFT) is diagnostic information, not a failure signal. Rising intensity is good news about direction, but it also raises the question of whether what just surfaced is safe and appropriate to continue tapping on alone. Why Feeling Worse After Tapping Is Actually Common Feeling worse after tapping is one of the most misunderstood experiences in EFT, and it happens to almost everyone who taps regularly. The discomfort you notice after a round usually is not new discomfort. It is discomfort you were already carrying that has become easier to feel because you stopped distracting yourself from it. This is closely related to sadness showing up after tapping, which follows the same underlying pattern. In 18 years of working with clients, I have watched this moment land the same way again and again. Someone taps for 10 minutes, opens their eyes, and says, "I feel worse now than when I started. This isn't working." What is almost always happening is the opposite. They have turned their attention toward something they had been quietly ignoring, and attention has a volume knob. Key insight: "Just because it feels worse, it doesn't actually mean things are getting worse. It just means they feel worse." That distinction matters because most people quit tapping at exactly the moment it is starting to work. If you have ever stopped mid-session because the feeling got bigger, this is the pattern you were caught in. The Three Possible Outcomes of Any Tapping Round Every round of tapping produces one of three outcomes: you feel better, nothing changes, or you feel worse. Recognizing which outcome you are in is the single most useful diagnostic skill in EFT, because each outcome calls for a different next move. Outcome one is the one most people hope for. You tap, the emotional charge drops, and you can get on with your day. At that point the only question is whether you are done or whether there is more to clear. If a little frustration still hums in the background but it is not blocking you, you can stop. If it is still getting in the way of being productive, you know you are on the right path and you keep going. This is part of how tapping progress actually accumulates, usually in layers rather than in one dramatic release. Outcome two is when nothing changes. This is not failure. It is a signal that the specific angle you chose is not the right entry point for this issue right now. The fix is simple: change something. Tap on a different aspect of the problem, name a different emotion, go after the body sensation instead of the story, or extend the round so the setup statement has time to do its work. Outcome three is the one this article is really about. The intensity climbs. You feel more upset, not less. That almost always means one of two specific things is happening, and both of them are good news in disguise. Why You Feel Worse After Tapping Reason #1: You Are Tuning In The first reason you feel worse after tapping is simple: you stopped turning the volume down. When you were busy with the day, the emotion was background noise. Now that you have given it your full attention for five minutes, it is foreground, and foreground always feels louder. I am dealing with a foot and ankle injury right now, and the physical version of this plays out every single evening. All day I barely notice my ankle because I am moving through meetings, answering messages, recording episodes. Then I sit down at the end of the day, relax, and my right ankle starts pulsing in pain. The relaxation did not cause the pain. The relaxation let me notice the pain that was there all along. The same mechanism runs the emotional version. When you start tapping on frustration, you are not manufacturing fresh frustration. You are reconnecting with the details of the experience, and the emotion follows the details. This is also why talking through a bad memory can make you angrier as you go. You are not building new anger. You are rejoining the old anger in higher resolution. Key insight: "As I tune in, the rising just means I'm having more detail, which means I'm actually closer to creating transformation." More detail is what lets tapping actually land. A vague "I feel bad" does not release the way "I felt humiliated in that specific meeting when that specific person said that specific thing" releases. The intensity bump is often the sound of specificity arriving. Why You Feel Worse After Tapping Reason #2: A Deeper Issue Surfaced The second reason you feel worse after tapping is that clearing the surface emotion has revealed a second issue sitting underneath it. This is one of the most common patterns in EFT, and once you can spot it, you stop mistaking it for a problem. Here is a version I see constantly. You start tapping on frustration because a project did not work out. A few minutes in, the frustration begins to lift, and you suddenly realize you are not really frustrated, you are hurt. Someone made you a promise and did not keep it, and underneath the frustration is a sense of betrayal. The frustration was real, but it was also a lid on something bigger. The first emotion often blocks your view of everything else. When frustration is loud, you cannot clearly see the sadness, the grief, the disappointment, or the old memory attached to the current event. The moment the first layer releases, the deeper layer becomes visible, and the intensity you feel is not the tapping making things worse. It is your system finally letting you see what was actually driving the reaction. This is one of the deeper layers healing reveals as you work through an issue over time. This is why I treat a spike in intensity as a green light, not a red one. When the number goes up after a round, I have usually just found the more important thing to work on. The frustration was the door. The betrayal is the room. What to Do When Tapping Makes You Feel Worse When tapping makes you feel worse, the next move depends on which of the three outcomes you are actually in, and the decision tree is short. In most cases you keep going, but with a small adjustment based on what you just noticed. If the intensity rose because you tuned in more fully (Reason #1), stay with the same target. Keep tapping on the specific details that brought the feeling into sharper focus. You are doing the right work on the right issue, and the rise is a sign the release is closer, not further. If the intensity rose because a deeper issue surfaced (Reason #2), switch targets. Write down what just appeared so you do not lose it, and start a fresh round on the new layer. Trying to tap on the surface frustration when what is really present is betrayal will not move the needle. Follow the bigger emotion. If nothing is changing, change one variable. This is often what is happening when EFT seems to stop working: the tool is fine, but the angle needs a small adjustment. Here are the most reliable things to adjust in order: Change the aspect. Tap on a different facet of the same issue (the person, the place, the moment, the body sensation, the thought). Change the emotion you are naming. Instead of "anger," try "disappointment," "hurt," or "the sense that it should have been different." Extend the round. Keep going through all eight points two or three more times before judging whether anything shifted. Go to the body. Drop the story entirely and tap on the physical sensation, where it lives, and what it feels like. None of these require you to start over. They are small tweaks to an approach that is already working better than you think. When Rising Intensity Means You Should Call a Practitioner Rising intensity during tapping is usually good news, but it comes with a responsibility: you need to ask whether what just surfaced is safe and appropriate for you to keep tapping on by yourself. Not everything that appears should be processed alone. I might feel completely comfortable tapping on frustration by myself at my kitchen table. I might feel much less comfortable tapping alone on a sense of betrayal tied to a close relationship, or on a memory with real trauma attached to it. Both are legitimate targets. They are not both legitimate solo targets. Knowing the difference is a core part of tapping safely on your own. Key insight: "Just because I can doesn't mean I should. Just because it's popped up doesn't mean I do it next." A simple rule: if the thing that surfaced feels significantly bigger than what you sat down to work on, pause before you chase it. Ask yourself whether you have the emotional bandwidth, the privacy, and the support to work with it right now. If the answer is no on any of those, note what you found, tap to soften the edge so you can put it down safely, and bring the deeper issue to a practitioner or therapist who works with EFT. Rising intensity is a sign you are close to something important. That is exactly why it deserves your care, not just your momentum. Frequently Asked Questions Is it normal to feel worse after tapping? Yes, it is normal and fairly common to feel worse after tapping, especially when you are working on a layered issue. Rising intensity usually means you have either tuned in more fully to an emotion you were already carrying or uncovered a deeper related issue. Both are signs tapping is working, not failing. Why do I feel worse after EFT instead of better? You likely feel worse after EFT because tapping has shifted your attention fully onto the emotion, so what was background discomfort has become foreground discomfort. Less often, the surface feeling has cleared enough to expose a deeper issue underneath, and the new layer is more intense than the one you started with. Does rising intensity mean tapping is not working? No. Rising intensity during tapping almost always means you are on the right path, because you are either getting more detail about the original issue or finding a deeper issue that was hidden by the first one. The fix is to keep tapping, not to stop. What should I do when a round of tapping makes me feel worse? Identify why the intensity rose. If you have tuned in more fully, stay with the same target and keep tapping. If a new issue has surfaced, write it down and start a fresh round on the deeper layer. Never force yourself to continue on something that feels too big for a solo session. How do I know if I should stop tapping and see a practitioner? Stop tapping on your own if what surfaced feels significantly bigger than what you sat down to work on, if it involves trauma or a charged relationship, or if you do not have the privacy and support to sit with it. Tap lightly to soften the edge, then bring the issue to an EFT practitioner or therapist. Can tapping surface memories or emotions I was not expecting? Yes. Tapping often surfaces emotions, memories, and connections that were sitting underneath the issue you named at the start. This is a normal part of how EFT uncovers the roots of a reaction, and it is usually why a seemingly small starting issue leads to a much bigger insight. Why does nothing change when I tap sometimes? If nothing changes when you tap, the tool is not broken. The specific angle you chose is not the right entry point for this issue in this moment. Change the aspect you are targeting, name a different emotion, extend the round, or drop the story and tap on the body sensation instead.

In this short Flex Diet Podcast episode, I share a reminder that the PhysFlex Surge enrollment closes Monday, April 27, 2026 at midnight PST, and I give more context on what's inside the PhysFlex Certification. I explain how Level 1 (Flex Diet Cert) covers nutrition and recovery basics, while Level 2 (Physiologic Flexibility) focuses on becoming more robust and resilient by improving the four pillars of homeostatic regulation: temperature, pH, fuels (including ketones), and air (managing oxygen and CO2).  I walk through my eustress vs distress model, why most interventions work better with lower intensity and higher frequency, and how misapplying tools like cold immersion, sauna, or breathing methods can backfire without the right context.

ALS and ketamine therapy are at the center of this conversation with psychiatrist Dr. Michael Alpert and Peter Alberding, who was diagnosed with ALS in late 2023. Alpert is a Boston-area psychiatrist with experience in MDMA-assisted therapy research for PTSD and a private practice that includes ketamine-assisted psychotherapy. Alberding shares what it has been like to face a fatal neurodegenerative illness while working with ketamine in a structured clinical setting. Alberding explains that he was not looking for a casual psychedelic experience. He wanted help facing fear, grief, loss of function, and the reality of death. Over time, ketamine-assisted psychotherapy became a tool for processing those changes more directly than talk therapy alone had allowed.

Titanic distress signals were seen from a nearby ship—but no rescue came. Why didn't they act? This true story reveals how uncertainty, not distance, changed everything.________________________________________ On April 14th, 1912, the RMS Titanic struck an iceberg and began to sink.Less than twenty miles away, another ship—the SS Californian—was stopped in the ice.Its crew saw the rockets.They watched for hours.And they did nothing.In this episode of An Ounce, we explore one of the most unsettling aspects of the Titanic disaster—not what people missed, but what they saw… and didn't understand.This is not a story about negligence.It's a story about uncertainty.Because sometimes, the difference between noticing something… and acting on it… isn't distance or darkness.It's doubt.________________________________________ If you value clear, honest storytelling about real events and the patterns behind them, consider subscribing—and share this with someone who appreciates history that makes you think.________________________________________ 

The more we fear, struggle with, and try to avoid any form of distress, generally the worse that distress gets. Distress intolerance remains due to certain beliefs they have developed about experiencing negative emotions. These beliefs tend to centre on the notion that negative emotion is bad in some way, unbearable, unacceptable, or will lead to disastrous consequences. These beliefs tend to make any negative emotion that we may feel, become a highly distressing emotional experience. Today's resource is accessible here.

If you have been tapping for any length of time, you have probably asked yourself: when am I actually done? You get some relief, the intensity drops, but the issue is not completely gone. Knowing when to stop tapping on an issue is one of the most common questions I hear, and the answer is simpler than most people think. TL;DR: Key Takeaways Knowing when to stop tapping is not about reaching a SUDS (Subjective Unit of Distress) level of zero; it is about reaching the functional outcome you defined before you started. Before every round of EFT tapping, ask yourself one question: "What is the goal of this round of tapping?" and name a specific, measurable outcome. You do not need to eliminate fear or resistance completely to take action; you only need to reduce the emotional intensity enough to do what you need to do. For complex, layered issues like negative self-image, the same goal-and-metric framework applies across multiple tapping sessions over days or weeks. The three-step process for knowing when to move on is: name the outcome, name the metric, and stop when you reach it. Why Knowing When to Stop Tapping Matters Most people who learn EFT tapping go through a predictable arc. First comes the honeymoon phase where you want to tap on everything and you try to get everyone in your life to tap with you (I am speaking from lived experience here). Then the enthusiasm settles and you are left staring at a giant laundry list of things you could work on. That laundry list creates its own kind of overwhelm. What do I tap on first? How long do I stay with it? When is it "enough"? Without a clear framework for knowing when to move on, many people either keep grinding on one issue long past the point of diminishing returns or they hop between issues so quickly that nothing gets meaningful traction. Key Insight: "It's not about completely eliminating something. It's about putting ourselves in the position so we can think, feel, believe, and act in the ways that we want to." This reframe changes everything about how you approach your tapping practice. The finish line is not the absence of all discomfort. The finish line is functional freedom. What Is a SUDS Level and Why It Is Not the Finish Line SUDS stands for Subjective Unit of Distress, and it is a zero-to-ten scale used to measure emotional or physical intensity before and after tapping. If I have a pain in my shoulder, I rate it: zero to ten, how intense is this pain? I do a round of tapping, then I check again. If the number dropped from a seven to a five, I know the tapping is working. SUDS is an excellent tool for tracking your tapping progress. The problem is that most people were taught to treat zero as the only acceptable endpoint. And the reality is that some issues will never reach a zero. Even when they could, chasing zero is not always the best use of your time and energy. Key Insight: "There are some issues we are never going to get to a zero. And there are some issues where, even if we got it to a zero, it isn't necessarily the most useful thing for us to do." Think of SUDS as a speedometer, not a destination. It tells you how fast you are moving, but it does not tell you where to stop. The One Question to Ask Before Every Round of Tapping Before every round of tapping, I ask myself what I call Question One from my Tapping Mastery Blueprint: What is the goal of this round of tapping? Not "how much distress am I feeling" but "what is the outcome I want right now?" This single question transforms the entire tapping experience. Instead of an open-ended session with no clear endpoint, you have a specific target. The goal might be to reduce frustration enough to get back to work. It might be to lower resistance enough to send a difficult email. It might be to shift the internal story that runs through your head when you look in the mirror. When the goal is clear, you will recognize the moment you reach it. That recognition is how you know when to stop tapping and move on with your day. How to Set a Measurable Tapping Goal A useful tapping goal has three parts: the outcome you want, the metric you will use to measure it, and the action that proves you have arrived. Here is how this works in practice. Reducing frustration to refocus. If my frustration is sitting at a seven on the SUDS scale, I cannot concentrate. But if I can bring it down to a three, the moment I engage with my next task, I will be so focused on what is in front of me that I will forget what I was frustrated about. My metric is: can I clearly think about the work in front of me? When the answer is yes, I stop tapping. Clearing resistance to take an action. The goal is not to feel zero fear. The goal is to feel safe enough to take the action with the energy and engagement it requires. My metric is: am I actually doing the thing? I have had clients working through resistance who, 23 minutes into a 30-minute session, suddenly say "I need to get off this call because I need to go do the thing right now." That is success. The tapping round is done because the goal was the action, not the absence of fear. Key Insight: "The goal was not to get rid of the fear. The goal was not to get rid of the resistance. The goal was to take the action." You Do Not Need to Be Fearless to Take Action I want to share a story that illustrates this perfectly. About 16 or 17 years ago, I was making my very first real offer to my email list. I was asking for the princely sum of (97 or )147, which at that point in my life felt like asking for $100 million. I had the email written. I had it loaded into my email software. I was sitting in a Starbucks in Charles Village in Baltimore. And I hit send. The moment I hit send, I slammed my laptop shut and went for a 90-minute walk on a beautiful spring day because I was terrified of what was going to happen next. When I got home, one or two people had bought and one or two people had unsubscribed. That was the entire consequence. I did not need to be fearless. I just needed to reduce the fear enough to press the button. And here is the important part: even if the fear had come rushing back 20 minutes later, it would not have mattered because the action was already taken. This is why outcome-based tapping goals are so powerful. Once the email is sent, the conversation is started, or the decision is made, the fear and resistance become irrelevant to that particular action. What About Issues That Take More Than One Session? Not every issue resolves in a single round of tapping. Some struggles, like the story you tell yourself when you look in the mirror or a deep pattern of self-doubt, require sustained work across days, weeks, or even months. The framework stays exactly the same. You name the outcome: I want to change the internal narrative I hear when I see my reflection. You name a metric: what words do I hear in my head when I look in the mirror right now versus what I want to hear? You tap, check in, and notice whether you are closer to the outcome than you were before. If you are closer, that session was a success, even if you are not all the way there yet. If you are not closer, that is useful information too. It might mean you need to approach the issue from a different angle, address a deeper layer of resistance, or simply give yourself more time. The trap to avoid is treating these longer-term issues with the same urgency as an in-the-moment frustration. You would not expect one gym session to transform your body. Give your tapping practice the same patience. How to Know You Are Done Tapping on an Issue Here is the simple three-step framework you can use every time you sit down to tap. Name the outcome. What do I want to think, feel, believe, or do differently as a result of this tapping session? Name the metric. How will I know I have reached that outcome? What will I notice in my body, my thoughts, or my behavior? Check and move on. When you reach the metric, stop tapping on that issue. If you have not reached it and you have run out of time, note where you are and come back to it next session. This process works whether you are tapping for five minutes on midday frustration or working through a years-long pattern of self-criticism. The scale changes but the structure does not. Frequently Asked Questions Do I always need to get my SUDS level to zero? No. A SUDS level of zero is not required for a successful tapping session. The goal is to reach the functional outcome you set before you started, whether that is being able to concentrate, take a specific action, or shift an emotional pattern. Many highly effective sessions end at a three or four on the SUDS scale. How long should a single tapping session last? There is no fixed time requirement. Some sessions take five minutes and others take thirty. The length depends on the complexity of the issue and the specific outcome you are working toward. Focus on reaching your defined goal rather than watching the clock. What if the emotion comes back after I stop tapping? That depends on whether you completed the action you were tapping toward. If the goal was to send an email and you sent it, the fear returning does not undo the result. For longer-term patterns, returning emotions simply mean there is more work to do in future sessions. How do I choose what to tap on when I have a long list of issues? Start by asking which issue is most affecting your ability to function right now. Tap on the issue that is blocking the most important action or causing the most immediate distress. You do not need to resolve your entire list before you get relief. Can I tap on the same issue every day? Yes, especially for deep or layered issues like self-image, grief, or long-standing patterns. Use the same goal-and-metric framework each session and track your progress over time. You should notice gradual shifts even if individual sessions feel incremental. What is the Subjective Unit of Distress (SUDS) scale? SUDS is a zero-to-ten self-rating scale used in EFT tapping to measure emotional or physical intensity before and after a round of tapping. Zero means no distress at all and ten means the maximum intensity you can imagine. It is a progress-tracking tool, not a mandatory endpoint. What should I do if tapping does not seem to be working? First, check whether your tapping goal is specific enough. Vague goals like "feel better" are hard to measure. Second, try approaching the issue from a different angle or addressing a related emotion that might be underneath the surface issue.

Rikk Agnew, James McGearty, and David Glass share stories about Rozz Williams & Christian Death, the making of Only Theater of Pain, and completing his final recorded wish with the new song Flowers. Tickets for April 18 movie premiere and music reunion event Topics Include: Rikk Agnew, James McGearty, and David Glass remember Rozz Williams together. Rozz described as mysterious, enigmatic, and a deeply misunderstood artist. Rozz excelled across poetry, music, visual art, and assemblage work. He scratched images into 8mm film cells as experimental art. Rozz was a chameleon, constantly reinventing his look and sound. Christian Death began as a punk band before Rikk joined. Rikk's arrival catapulted Rozz's darker, more mystical artistic vision. Much of Only Theater of Pain was created spontaneously in-studio. Rozz unveiled his poetry to the band for the first time recording. A violent storm set an eerie tone during the vocal sessions. Rozz recorded in a candlelit booth — a truly otherworldly performance. The vocal track was lost; nobody could explain why it didn't record. The released vocals paled against what was actually performed that night. The entire album artwork and layout was hand-drawn by Rozz himself. Lisa Fancher of Frontier financed the record; the band were teenagers. Catastrophe Ballet launched in Europe first; Death Wish emerged mysteriously unauthorised. Only Theater of Pain's influence grew gradually, now considered truly seminal. Rozz's final wish was a full-band studio recording of Flowers. Rikk, James, and David completed Flowers separately, finding it deeply emotional. Romeo's Distress documentary premieres April 18th with a live reunion performance.

This week, in an episode that first ran in July of 2024, Kevin debunks a viral Instagram fallacy claiming that humans, like plants, require hardship to stay rooted.

You'll learn the crucial difference between eustress (the positive stress that motivates growth) and distress (the chronic stress that leads to burnout).Get-Fit Guy is a Quick and Dirty podcast, hosted by Kevin Don.

Chris Lopez is back with Paul Shannon for this month's PassivePockets Pulse Check, catching up on why Paul stepped back from co-hosting, what he's focused on now, and what both of them are actually doing with their own portfolios. They get into the real-life tradeoffs that don't show up in an OM: liquidity vs. deployment, concentration risk vs. investing where you have an edge, and why relationships with operators matter more than ever coming out of the last cycle. From there, Paul drops a data-heavy market update across multifamily and beyond- where supply is still pressuring rents, which markets are already seeing rent growth again, and how the maturity wall is forcing distressed (and motivated) sellers into the market. Chris shares what he's seeing in Denver and the Midwest, why he's leaning toward cash flow and debt for diversification, and how both of them are thinking about positioning for the next 12–24 months without trying to “time” real estate. They wrap with a quick preview of the 2026 PassivePockets Summit in Denver (April 30–May 2), why the event is built for LPs, and what they're most excited for- from the small, high-quality attendee base to hands-on learning opportunities like the hotel-to-multifamily conversion property tour. Key Takeaways Why Paul stepped back from co-hosting and what he's prioritizing in business and family life right now Liquidity as a strategy: when “good deals” still aren't the right move because cash matters Multifamily's bifurcated market: rent growth winners vs. laggards, and why national headlines can mislead The maturity wall and distress: what refinances look like in a 6–7% rate world and what LPs should ask sponsors Summit preview: LP-focused networking, sponsor access, and the Denver hotel-to-multifamily conversion tour Disclaimer The content of this podcast is for informational purposes only.
