Podcasts about Distress

Do you ever wonder if the quietest voice in the room can truly lead—and win—in a world built for extroverts? This episode of Do Good to Lead Well is a refreshing, insightful journey into that very question, as I sit down with Benjamin Friedman, author of “Silent Strength: The Introvert's Guide to Building Successful Startups.”The conversation opens with Benjamin's “me-search;” his personal and professional quest to understand how introverts can succeed when the business world often favors extroverted traits. Can an introvert be authentic and ambitious, all while driving top-tier results? Absolutely, says Benjamin, but it's all about leveraging your way of being, rather than trying to fit someone else's mold.Listeners will come away with practical advice for managing meetings, leveraging networks, and navigating self-doubt. He also shares tools for raising our self-awareness, the power of a “challenge network,” and the importance of aligning values with the people you build alongside. When fear or imposter syndrome strikes, Friedman reframes those moments as evidence you care and offers ways to harness uncertainty as fuel for growth.The common thread throughout this episode is one of curiosity and vulnerability. It is about questioning our assumptions and beliefs while building a roadmap to authentic success. What You'll Learn- The power of the quiet leader.- Self-awareness as a foundation.- Leveraging a Challenge Network.- How to harness fear and navigate uncertainty.- Reframing networking.- The secret sauce of vulnerability.Podcast Timestamps(00:00) – Silent Strength: The Origin Story (06:01) - The Universal Value of Introvert Insights (11:42) - Self-Awareness as a Foundation for Success (18:44) - Reframing Imposter Syndrome & Building Presence (22:29) - Empowering Introverted Voices in Meetings (28:56) - The Power of a Challenge Network (36:15) - Getting Useful Feedback (40:29) - Navigating Fear, Uncertainty & Opportunity (45:32) - Thriving as an Introvert in Sales & Networking (50:25) - Co-Founders, Relationships & Final InsightsKEYWORDSPositive Leadership, Self-Awareness, Feedback, Personal Growth, Vulnerability, Leading with Intention, Curiosity, Startup Founders, Introverts in Leadership, Challenge Network, Networking Strategies, Sales (for Introverts), Eustress vs Distress, Leveraging Strengths, Authenticity, Managing Meetings, Inclusive Environments, Managing Fear, CEO Success

On this episode of the CMAJ Podcast, Dr. Mojola Omole and Dr. Blair Bigham examine the issues raised in a recent CMAJ commentary on Alberta's Compassionate Intervention Act, which explores the ethical and clinical implications of this approach to involuntary treatment. As governments across Canada turn to coercive measures in response to the overdose crisis, the episode considers what these policies mean for patient autonomy, clinical practice, and the role of physicians in enforcing care.Dr. Bonnie Larson, a family physician and addictions medicine specialist at the University of Calgary, joins the conversation to unpack the legislation. She explains how the Act allows individuals to be detained and treated even when they are deemed capable of making their own medical decisions. Dr. Larson describes how this represents a substantial departure from established principles of consent and autonomy, placing physicians in ethically complex positions and reshaping their role in care.The discussion then turns to Massachusetts, where involuntary treatment for substance use has existed for decades under Section 35. Dr. Keren Ladin, a bioethicist and health services researcher at Tufts University, reveals the experiences of clinicians working within this framework. Drawing on her research, she describes how Section 35 has shaped clinical practice, contributed to moral distress among healthcare providers, and often resulted in people being treated in carceral rather than therapeutic settings.Together, the guests reflect on what these policies reveal about how societies respond to addiction, the limits of coercive care, and the risks of prioritizing control over evidence-based, patient-centred treatment.Comments or questions?

What if the way we approach mental health is quietly making things worse? Psychiatrist and psychotherapist Sami Timimi joins Michael Shermer to examine some of the core assumptions behind modern psychiatry. Why have diagnoses such as ADHD, autism, anxiety, and depression expanded so dramatically—and why hasn't increased access to treatment led to better outcomes at the population level? Timimi describes how diagnostic categories have broadened over time and questions whether psychiatric labels function in the same way as medical diagnoses elsewhere in healthcare. Without clear biological markers, he argues, definitions can expand to include forms of distress that were once considered part of ordinary human experience. The conversation also considers the role of meaning, identity, and culture in shaping how people understand psychological suffering. Timimi reflects on the limits of medication and therapy, the unintended consequences of the "mental illness as physical illness" model, and how social media may contribute to the spread and reinforcement of certain diagnostic categories. Dr. Sami Timimi is a child and adolescent psychiatrist, psychotherapist, and Fellow of the Royal College of Psychiatrists. He has published more than 150 academic papers and authored or edited over a dozen books, including Naughty Boys, Liberatory Psychiatry, and The Myth of Autism. His new book is Searching for Normal: A New Approach to Understanding Mental Health, Distress, and Neurodiversity.

Today’s Bible Verse: "He brought me out into a spacious place; he rescued me because he delighted in me." — Psalm 18:19 Psalm 18:19 reminds us that God’s rescue is not only about deliverance from danger—it’s about being brought into freedom and security, rooted in His love. David celebrates that God doesn’t just save His people out of obligation; He saves because He delights in them. “Want to listen without ads?

Any person in any part of the world can take up this simple process of chanting Hare Kṛṣṇa and using resources to help expand the Saṅkīrtana movement; and Prabhupāda showed how successful that can be. Caitanya Mahāprabhu also taught that it's important to avoid offenses while chanting, and one of the ways to avoid offenses is to take shelter of Lord Nityānanda and Lord Caitanya, because Lord Nityānanda is adoṣa-darśī—He doesn't see anybody's faults. Do you know anybody like that? It's pretty rare. But there's a description by Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura in the Śrīmad Bhāgavatam about different classes of people in this world who find faults. He says that some people are professional fault-finders.They're so expert at finding faults in others that even when there are no faults in somebody, they're able to find one and bring it up. That's a professional fault-finder. If you ask somebody what they do for a profession, they could say, 'I'm a professional fault-finder.' I said something about, 'Don't find faults in others,' and somebody wrote something back saying, 'This is a faulty conclusion; you should try to find fault with people.' Then he talks about someone who is adoṣa-darśī—that even when there is an obvious fault, the person doesn't see any fault. Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura gave an example: He said if somebody is very charitable, then the person who is a fault-finder might say, "Oh yes, he's charitable, but he's going to become very puffed up because he's giving charity. Actually, probably then people will start giving him money too and making him famous, and then he'll accept it all, and then he'll fall down—so it doesn't amount to much." Then he gave an example of somebody who doesn't find faults. He mentioned a householder. One night a burglar came in, and when the residents of the house woke up, the burglar had a weapon and said, "Give me all your riches." So they started handing over the riches. When he left, the householder said, "Oh, he's very pious! First of all, he really needed the money, because otherwise, why would he even come in here? And second of all, he had a weapon and he didn't harm any of us. Such a pious, nice person." Anyway, he gave these examples, but Lord Nityānanda is exactly like that. The śāstra says He is adoṣa-darśī; He doesn't find any fault. Sometimes we're the worst fault-finders of ourselves because, although we're trying to make advancement on the path of devotional service, we may compare ourselves to others and imagine that everyone else is doing okay except for me—and then we may discourage ourselves from advancing in devotional service. We definitely need Lord Nityānanda's help.

To discuss her companies: Hand in Hand Counseling Services – addressing mental health disparities in Black communities. Vitamin C Healing – building trauma-sensitive, wellness-centered workplace cultures. To educate on stress, burnout, compassion fatigue, and financial equity in the mental health field. Key Takeaways Hand in Hand Counseling Services Founded with college roommate Tess Kenny in Pittsburgh. Created a safe space for mental health support in underserved communities.

Advocated therapy as normal: “I’m a therapist who has a therapist.” Education on what therapy is and isn’t. Understanding Stress Eustress (positive stress) vs. Distress (overwhelming stress). Physical signs: sweating, rapid heartbeat, tense shoulders, jaw clenching. Stress can lead to depression and anxiety—seek professional help. Impact of COVID-19 Isolation amplified mental health issues. Introduced concept of co-regulation—healing through community and connection. Vitamin C Healing Originated from her book Vitamin C Healing for the Mind, Body. Evolved into a brand offering workshops, consultations, and burnout assessments.

Quote: “Feel the fear and do it anyway.” Notable Quotes “We can care deeply and earn abundantly.” “I’m a therapist who has a therapist.” “Feel the fear and do it anyway.” “We heal when we are in community—it’s hard to heal in isolation.” “Compassion fatigue isn’t just a feel-good topic; it costs companies millions.” “Betting on myself was the best investment I ever made.” #SHMS #STRAW #BEST #AMISee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20260103dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion In all their distress he too was distressed, and the angel of his presence saved them. In his love and mercy he redeemed them; he lifted them up and carried them all the days of old. Isaiah 63:9 In Distress The “damsel in distress” is a character often found in books and movies. She is usually helpless, in a dire predicament, and unable to save herself. Tied to the railroad tracks with a train barreling toward her or locked away in some tall tower, her only hope is for someone to come and rescue her. The hero rides in on his white horse and, with superior strength, he wins the day, many times with little effort or cost. Jesus is a different kind of hero. While Jesus won the day, he didn’t do it by coming in on a white horse. Rather, Jesus saved us in our distress by becoming distressed. Yes, Jesus came to rescue us by putting on flesh and being made like us in every way. He knows what our distress is like. He saved us because he knows what it is to cry and to be hungry. He saved us because he knows what it is to have friends leave and to be disappointed with others. He saved us because he knows what it means to be tempted to sin, and he knows what it takes to resist sin. He knows what it takes to have Satan come after him and what it takes to send him running. Most of all, he saved us because he knows what it takes to pay for our sin, as he still bears those marks in his hands and feet. This is how Jesus redeemed us and how he lifted us up and carries us. Yes, he came to earth as true God, but also came as true man. Not on a white horse nor a show of strength, he suffered to save us from suffering. Both as a powerful savior and a suffering servant, he came to rescue us. By being distressed for us, he saved us from all distress. Prayer: Father, you sent Jesus to be distressed in our distress. By his coming to earth and through his life and death he lifted us up. In our distress may we always look to his love and redemption. Amen. Daily Devotions is brought to you by WELS.

Thanks to our Partners, NAPA Auto Care and NAPA TRACS Watch Full Video Episode Becca Zanders, Certified Exit Planning Advisor, explains why most auto repair shop owners are unprepared for an exit—and how to change that. Only 20–30% of businesses that go to market actually sell, and nearly half of those sales are forced by the “Five Ds”: Death, Divorce, Disability, Disagreement, or Distress. Becca introduces the Value Acceleration Methodology, which reframes exit planning into three stages: Discover the business's true value and the owner's readiness, Prepare the leader, finances, and organization to accelerate value, and Decide whether to grow or sell. A key distinction is the difference between a profitable lifestyle business and a business built for value. The conversation stresses the importance of closing the “wealth gap,” as most owners underestimate retirement needs and have the majority of their net worth trapped in their business. Personal readiness is equally critical, with many sellers regretting the sale because they failed to define their purpose beyond ownership. Advice to shop owners: build the right advisory team and start advancing your business today, long before a sale is forced.

In a world that often feels heavy and uncertain, we’ll gather to see and celebrate the comfort of His presence—the Light who enters our darkness, the Peace that steadies our hearts, and the hope that never fades. Discussion Questions: In Isaiah 9:1–2, Isaiah describes a movement from deep darkness to light. Based on the text, what is the source of this shift? What does Isaiah want us to see as the turning point from doom to hope? Isaiah calls the Messiah the “Prince of Peace” in verse 6. Looking at verses 6–7, where does this peace come from, and what kind of peace is Isaiah describing? What clues do we get that this peace is rooted in God’s rule, not our circumstances? In 2 Corinthians 5, Paul says we are reconciled to God through Christ and calls people to “be reconciled to God.” How does peace with God serve as the foundation for every other kind of peace Isaiah points toward? Jesus says in John 14:27, “My peace I give to you… not as the world gives.” How does Jesus’ definition of peace differ from what we usually think of when we talk about peace? How does this help us understand why inner peace can exist even when life feels unsettled? Pastor Jon talked about peace in four directions—peace with God, peace within, peace with others, and peace that is still to come. Which of those do you feel most drawn to or most lacking right now, and how does Scripture invite you to take a step toward peace there?

Depression and anxiety are widespread in long-term care—but they often go unrecognized and untreated. In this episode, Teepa Snow explores how environmental stressors, lack of meaningful engagement, staffing pressures, and unmet needs all contribute to low mood and distress for residents, families, and professionals alike. Teepa and Greg discuss why quick fixes fall short, what meaningful change requires, and how leadership and staff can work together to build a community where well-being is possible. You'll also hear how PAC™ supports organizations through training experiences, mentorship, and sustainable culture-change initiatives.Teepa's discussion of widespread low mood in care facilities underscores that meaningful change – not quick fixes – is needed to improve quality of life. For those looking to foster a better care environment, the Culture Change Bundle (DVD) is an excellent fit. It includes Dementia Care Provision: Reducing Risk by Changing Care Strategies, a training video showing how adjusting staff approaches and routines can dramatically reduce distress behaviors and accidents in professional care settings. Teepa's methods teach leadership and staff to address unmet needs through non-pharmacological skills, rather than defaulting to medication or restraint. By equipping your team with these positive strategies (along with the bundled PAC Skills DVD), you'll be empowered to start transforming your community's culture – building the kind of engagement and emotional support that Teepa describes as being essential for true well-being.

As 2025 comes to a close, multifamily investors are facing a market defined by shifting interest rates, slowing construction, and emerging distress—especially across the Sun Belt. In this episode of Kiss My Assets, Kyle Macdonald and Neighborhood Ventures CEO Jason Manwaring break down what's happening beneath the surface of the Phoenix multifamily market. They discuss SOFR versus the 10-year Treasury, why rate cuts haven't translated to lower long-term borrowing costs, and how government debt is influencing the bond market. The conversation also examines two notable Phoenix deals—a high-profile office-to-multifamily conversion at Central and Camelback and a $100M ground-up development breaking ground despite a sharp drop in permits. Finally, they explore why short-term softness in Sun Belt markets may be creating long-term opportunity for disciplined investors heading into 2026.

The Fathers do not flatter us here. They speak with a severity that at first wounds, then heals, if we allow it. They do not treat resentment as a minor flaw of temperament or a passing emotional reaction. They name it for what it is: a poison that slowly erodes the soul's capacity to remember God. Abba Makarios goes straight to the heart of the matter. To remember wrongs is not simply to remember events. It is to allow those events to take up residence within us, to become a lens through which everything is filtered. The tragedy is not primarily that we remain hurt. It is that the remembrance of God grows faint. The mind cannot hold both rancor and divine remembrance at the same time. One displaces the other. When resentment is cherished, prayer becomes difficult, then hollow, then distorted. The heart turns inward and begins to feed on its own injuries. The Fathers are unsparing here because they know how subtle rancor is. Other sins shock us into repentance. A lie, a fall, a moment of weakness often leaves the soul groaning almost immediately. But rancor settles in quietly. It eats and sleeps with us. It walks beside us like a companion we no longer question. Abba Isaiah and the Elder of the Cells both know this danger. Resentment does not merely coexist with spiritual life; it corrodes it from within, like rust consuming iron. The soul grows hard while imagining itself justified. And yet, alongside this severity, there is a startling tenderness. The Fathers do not say that healing comes through argument, vindication, or emotional catharsis. They prescribe something far more humbling and far more powerful: prayer for the one who has wounded us. Not a feeling of goodwill, not an internal resolution, but the concrete act of standing before God and interceding. Again and again the teaching is the same. Pray for him. Pray for her. Force yourself if you must. Obey even when the heart resists. The story of the brother who obeyed the Elder and prayed is quietly miraculous. Nothing dramatic happens. There is no confrontation, no apology demanded, no psychological analysis. Within a week, the anger is gone. Not suppressed. Extinguished. Grace works where the will yields, even reluctantly. The healing is not self-generated. It is given. The account of the two brothers under persecution reveals just how serious this is. One accepts reconciliation and is strengthened beyond his natural limits. The other clings to ill will and collapses under the same torments. The difference is not courage or endurance. It is love. Grace remains where love remains. When rancor is chosen, protection is withdrawn, not as punishment, but because the soul has closed itself to the very atmosphere in which grace operates. St. Maximos names the interior mechanism with precision. Distress clings to the memory of the one who harmed us. The image of the person becomes fused with pain. Prayer loosens that bond. When we pray, distress is separated from memory. Slowly, the person is no longer experienced as an enemy but as a suffering human being in need of mercy. Compassion does not excuse the wrong. It dissolves its power. What is perhaps most astonishing is the Fathers' confidence that kindness can heal not only the one who was wounded, but the one who wounds. Be kind to the person who harbors resentment against you, St. Maximos says, and you may deliver him from his passion. This is not naïveté. It is spiritual realism. Demons feed on mutual hostility. They lose their dwelling place when humility and gentleness appear. Foxes flee when the ground is no longer hospitable. St. Ephraim's image is unforgettable. Rancor drives knowledge from the heart the way smoke drives away bees. The heart was made to gather sweetness. When bitterness fills the air, nothing can remain. Tears, prayer, and the offering of oneself like incense clear the space again. This teaching is beautiful because it is honest. It does not minimize the pain of insult or harm. It is challenging because it leaves us without excuses. We cannot claim prayer while nursing grudges. We cannot claim suffering for Christ while secretly rejoicing at another's downfall. The path offered is narrow and costly, but it is also liberating. Resentment chains us to the past. Kindness loosens the chain. Prayer opens the hand. Grace does the rest. --- Text from chat during the group: 00:04:55 Fr. Charbel Abernethy: Page 332 Section B Hypothesis XLII Volume II 00:11:28 Fr.

How many times have YOU recommended a movie to a friend or colleague and got a response the next day to the tune of "what the hell did you tell me to watch?!  Why do you like this?!" There's nothing like showing a film you like that has a poor critical reputation, to your brother who has never seen it and hoping for the best.   Did he like it? Yih, nah, you'll have to listen to find out. This week we tackled Arnie's End of Days, which plays sort of like Commando meets Rosemary's Baby, with a regularly randy Satan (surprising that when he pees later in the movie, he doesn't have to arch his back in a triangular shape...) a constantly screaming Robin Tunney who puts the "shut up dammit" in Damsel in Distress, Kevin Pollack with a character name out of a 70's cop show and Hector Salamanca in a wheelchair sans the bell.  And, of course, Arnie making a smoothie out of old pizza from the floor.  He didn't even wash it first.  Animal. It's all here and more! What are you waiting for?  Listen!   Join us on Discord after listening to discuss, suggest our next movie or just to chat! https://discord.gg/3wAkRxeW

This episode of the collaborative podcast between Oncology on the Go and the American Psychosocial Oncology Society (APOS), hosted by Daniel C. McFarland, DO, features Michelle B. Riba, MD, and focuses on integrating psychosocial care into oncology for clinicians. The discussion emphasizes that psychosocial issues profoundly impact both quality of life and cancer-related outcomes, making their assessment an integral part of care, not merely ancillary. The distress thermometer was developed by the NCCN in the late 1990s as a 0-to-10 scale, dubbed the "fifth vital sign". The term "distress" was chosen over psychiatric labels to capture the wide array of patient concerns, including pain, fatigue, sleep, spiritual, practical, and family issues. Distress screening is now mandated at regular appointments in all cancer centers in the US. Clinicians are encouraged to screen for more specific issues like depression (linked to poor adherence and survival), anxiety (which can impede treatment adherence), and substance use. Oncologists are the doctors most able to consider a patient's totality of symptoms, and their role is integral to supporting psychosocial referrals. To address the practical delivery of care, the collaborative care model is being advocated as a public health, population-based approach. Key components include: Use of a standardized screening tool. Management by a dedicated care manager. Weekly consultation between the care manager and a consultant psychiatrist for triage and treatment advice. The model allows oncologists to bill for care and learn more about these issues while ensuring patients receive evidence-based treatments. The clinicians concluded that fundamentally, mental health needs to be aligned alongside cancer care. McFarland is the director of the Psycho-Oncology Program at Wilmot Cancer Center and a medical oncologist who specializes in head, neck, and lung cancer, in addition to being the psycho-oncology editorial advisory board member for the journal ONCOLOGY. Riba is director of the PsychOncology Program, a clinical professor, and the associate chair for Integrated Medical and Psychiatric Services in the Department of Psychiatry at the University of Michigan Rogel Cancer Center, and psycho-oncology editorial advisory board member for the journal ONCOLOGY.

Have you had one of those consults in which you're thinking, huh, sounds like the patient's goals are clear, it's really that the clinician consulting us disagrees with those goals?  To what extent is it our job as consultants to navigate, manage, or attend to clinician distress?  What happens when that clinician distress leads eventually to conflict between the consulting clinician and the palliative care team? Today our guests Sara Johnson, Yael Schenker, & Anne Kelly discuss these issues, including: A recent paper first authored by Yael asking if attending to clinician distress is our job, published in JPSM. See also the wonderful conversation in the response letters from multidisciplinary providers (e.g. of course  that's our job! And physicians may not be trained in therapy, but many social workers and chaplains are, and certainly psychologists). A SPACE pneumonic for addressing clinician conflict developed by Sara Johnson, Anne Kelly and others. They presented this at a recent AAHPM/HPNA meeting. See below for what SPACE stands for. We referenced a prior episode on therapeutic presence and creating a holding space with Kerri Brenner and Dani Chammas, and this article by Kerri.  We talked about the role of the consultant, including this classic paper on consultation etiquette by Diane Meier and Larry Beresford.

In this episode, we perceive an alternate proposal of action, as depicted in Sangam Literary work, Aganaanooru 148, penned by Paranar. The verse is situated amidst the rocky paths of the ‘Kurinji’ or ‘Mountain landscape’ and describes an astonishing historic moment. பனைத் திரள் அன்ன பரு ஏர் எறுழ்த் தடக் கை,கொலைச் சினம் தவிரா மதனுடை முன்பின்,வண்டு படு கடாஅத்து, உயர் மருப்பு யானைதண் கமழ் சிலம்பின் மரம் படத் தொலைச்சி;உறு புலி உரறக் குத்தி; விறல் கடிந்து;சிறு தினைப் பெரும் புனம் வவ்வும் நாட!கடும் பரிக் குதிரை ஆஅய் எயினன்நெடுந் தேர் மிஞிலியொடு பொருது, களம் பட்டென,காணிய செல்லாக் கூகை நாணி,கடும் பகல் வழங்காதாஅங்கு, இடும்பைபெரிதால் அம்ம இவட்கே; அதனால்மாலை வருதல் வேண்டும் சோலைமுளை மேய் பெருங் களிறு வழங்கும்மலை முதல் அடுக்கத்த சிறு கல் ஆறே. In this little trip to the mountains, we get to hear the confidante say these words to the man, when he arrives to tryst with the lady by day: “Having a thick, beautiful, sturdy and curving trunk, akin to a palmyra tree, expressing a fierce strength with killer rage, flowing with bee-buzzing musth, and bearing upraised tusks, an elephant dashes and ruins a tree, in the cool and fragrant mountain slopes, pierces and overpowers a tiger that opposes it, and then snatches small millets in the huge fields of your land, O lord! When Aay Eyinan, the possessor of speedy horses, clashed with Mignili, the owner of tall chariots, and perished in the battlefield, unable to go visit him in the harsh time of day, an owl felt much shame. Even more than that owl's suffering is hers, during the day. And so, you must come to that narrow, stone-filled path through the mountains,  frequented by a huge elephant that comes to graze on bamboos in the grove, only in the evening hour!” Let’s tread those mountain paths at different times of the day and learn more! The confidante starts by describing the man’s mountain country, bringing into spotlight an elephant in rut, with a thick trunk and upraised tusks. This pachyderm is on a rampage, destroying a tree, most probably a Kino tree, no doubt, mistaking it for its arch enemy. Then, finding the real deal, it fights and kills a tiger, and then devours millets in the fields. After this animated portrait of a being in the man’s land, the confidante turns to history and describes an incident from the battle between two kings, Aay Eyinan and Mignili. In this clash, Aay Eyinan was killed, and at that moment, birds seemed to soar in the sky and shield Aay Eyinan from the harsh sun. The reason for this action of the birds is attributed to the nature of this king. Apparently, he was a great protector of birds, and at the moment of his death, the birds with their superior perception had arrived to pay their respects.  Returning, the confidante continues by saying at that time when all the birds of this land arose to shield this bird-lover of a king, one bird was not able to come there, and that was an owl, and though it very much wanted to arrive there, owing to its inability to move about in the day, it remained where it was, filled with shame. Now, the confidante turns to the lady’s state and connects it to the angst-ridden owl, saying that the lady too is in a terrible position of being unable to see the man by day. This is possibly because of the soaring gossip in town about the lady’s relationship with the man. So, the confidante concludes by telling the man that he should choose the evening hour to come tryst with the lady, treading those narrow paths, traversed by huge, fearsome elephants, seeking bamboos to graze on! It’s a seemingly simple thought asking the man to not come by day but to come by night. However, concealed in that last line about dangerous elephants in his path, the confidante seems to be hinting that even a tryst by night would not be remain suitable and the best thing for the man to do would be to seek the lady’s hand in marriage. Even within that scene of the elephant thrashing about trees and tigers and then feasting on the millets, the confidante places a metaphor for how the man should put an end to the slander in town and then feast on the lady’s company. Leaving these concerns of that past moment aside, when we turn to that exquisite comparison of the lady’s suffering with an owl’s distress of being unable to visit that famous king in his moment of death, and perceive the kindness to birds that this king must have shown to evoke such a reaction, we can see how this oft-repeated portrait is streaked in the timeless hues of what’s best in humanity!

Why does fulfillment feel so hard to define, and even harder to maintain?In this episode, Kevin and Alan break down why personal development without alignment eventually stalls. Fulfillment is not a reward for working harder. It is the result of consistent decisions, honest self-awareness, and staying committed to meaningful work long after the excitement fades.

In this episode, we perceive the hope in a man’s heart, as depicted in Sangam Literary work, Aganaanooru 144, penned by Madurai Alakkar Gnaazhalaar Makanaar Mallanaar. The verse is situated amidst the blooming wild jasmines of the ‘Mullai’ or ‘Forest Landscape’ and presents dual perspectives from the home front and the battlefront. ‘''வருதும்’ என்ற நாளும் பொய்த்தன;அரி ஏர் உண்கண் நீரும் நில்லா;தண் கார்க்கு ஈன்ற பைங் கொடி முல்லைவை வாய் வால் முகை அவிழ்ந்த கோதைபெய் வனப்பு இழந்த கதுப்பும் உள்ளார்,அருள் கண்மாறலோ மாறுக அந்தில்அறன் அஞ்சலரே! ஆயிழை! நமர்” எனச்சிறிய சொல்லிப் பெரிய புலப்பினும்,பனி படு நறுந் தார் குழைய, நம்மொடு,துனி தீர் முயக்கம் பெற்றோள் போலஉவக்குநள் வாழிய, நெஞ்சே! விசும்பின்ஏறு எழுந்து முழங்கினும் மாறு எழுந்து சிலைக்கும்கடாஅ யானை கொட்கும் பாசறை,போர் வேட்டு எழுந்த மள்ளர் கையதைகூர் வாட் குவிமுகம் சிதைய நூறி,மான் அடி மருங்கில் பெயர்த்த குருதிவான மீனின் வயின் வயின் இமைப்ப,அமர் ஓர்த்து, அட்ட செல்வம்தமர் விரைந்து உரைப்பக் கேட்கும் ஞான்றே. A little of the forest and more of the fierce battlefield in this trip, as we listen to the man say these words to his heart, as his charioteer listens, at the moment the man’s returning home after his mission: “Saying, ‘The day he had marked for his return has turned out false; Tears stop not from these beautiful, kohl-streaked eyes with red lines; The pointed, white buds of green-vined wild jasmines have burst into bloom because of the cool rains; He thinks not of how my tresses that used to be clad in garlands, have lost their lustre; If he, who does not fear righteousness, no longer wants to render his grace to me, so be it, O maiden clad in well-etched ornaments!', she would be expressing a little and lamenting a lot. As thunder soars in the skies and resounds aloud, standing opposite, wild battle elephants reflect that sound in equal measure in the battlefield. Here, desiring war, soldiers rise with sharp swords in hand. Blunting these sharp edges, they have scattered much blood, which gather in the pits made by hooves of horses, and twinkle hither and thither, akin to stars in the sky. O heart, may you live long! When our kin rush to her and tell her about how I quelled enemies in this battlefield and heaped wealth, she shall delight, as if crushing her dew-covered, fragrant garland, she has attained a flawless union with me!” Let’s trot along with the man on his way home through the jasmine-clad forest and listen in! The man starts by expressing the thoughts that would be passing through the head of his lady just then, about how the man was not back when he promised he would be, about the way her eyes were overflowing with tears, and how the wild jasmines have bloomed in the rains and yet her tresses cannot be adorned with garlands, owing to his absence. She may even wonder if the man’s love for her has changed and call him an unjust person, the man says aloud. He tells his heart that for sure the lady would be worrying a lot in this manner. While that may be so, the minute she hears their relatives talk about how the man vanquished enemies in that fierce battlefield, and brought back great wealth, the lady would forget all her laments and would feel the same delight she does when she attains a sweet sleep in his embrace, the man concludes.  The man’s subtle way of pressing his charioteer to speed the horses and hasten home! In the thought that his actions would bring happiness to the lady in spite of the pain he has inflicted by his parting, the man echoes the same hope each of us carry, when we give up pleasures in the short run and yearn for greater things. Just like this ancient ancestor of ours, all we can do is hope, wishing that no matter how they seem now, things will turn out well in the end!

In this episode we talk about wiring the brain so that we get the credit for anxiety passing. Distress tolerance teaches the brain that we can cope and don't need "saving". It's part of wilful tolerance - an essential skill.

We know that black maternal health is a huge issue in the United States. But to see real-life videos that went viral in November 2025 on 2 black women literally about to give birth being carelessly dismissed by medical personnel makes this important issue undeniable and palpable. In this episode, we passionately talk about the struggles that black birthing moms face, how medical personnel need to address and take care of birthing moms, potential ways of addressing this problem in tangible ways, and sharing our fury and compassion on this issue that needs to be acknowledged and seriously addressed. I am joined with my co-host and good friend, Touseef Mirza.

Gwendolyn Dolske and Rudy Salo welcome Psychology Professor Dr. Bruno De Oliveira to unpack the real problems with the modern self-help industry. Why does self-help culture thrive despite offering oversimplified advice? How does it ignore the structural forces that shape mental distress? And what does evidence-based psychology actually say about wellbeing? We discuss the rise of pseudo-psychology, the limits of mindset-based advice, and how institutional practices, social inequality, and lived experiences contribute to mental distress. A thoughtful conversation for listeners interested in critical psychology, philosophy, ethics, and the science behind wellbeing. Drawing from critical community psychology, critical realism, and interdisciplinary research, Dr. De Oliveira explores how institutional practices, social inequality, and lived experiences, especially among those facing homelessness or welfare systems, challenge the myth that personal mindset alone determines success. We examine:  limits of positive thinking, pseudo-psychology in the self-help space, the wellness industry vs. scientific psychology, how social economics shape mental distress, and why individualistic advice often fails marginalized communities.

Nick Bienstock joins host Brandon Sedloff on The Distribution for a detailed conversation about his path into real estate, the evolution of Savanna, and what he is seeing across the New York and West Palm Beach markets. He reflects on early experiences that shaped his investing philosophy, the formation of Savanna's vertically integrated platform, and the strategic discipline required to operate in complex urban environments. Nick also offers a ground-level view of today's office landscape, including the bifurcation between high-quality assets and aging buildings, as well as the emerging opportunities driven by market repricing and renewed demand. The discussion closes with an exploration of Savanna's major new development in West Palm Beach and the long-term demographic and economic trends fueling the region's growth. They discuss: • Nick's early exposure to real estate, his education, and foundational career experiences • The creation and long-term partnership behind Savanna, including its vertically integrated model • How New York's office market has repriced, recovered, and bifurcated since COVID • Why institutional investors are slowly returning to office and how transactions are shifting • The development story and long-term thesis behind Savanna's West Palm Beach residential project Links: Savanna - https://savannafund.com/ Brandon on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/bsedloff/ Juniper Square - https://www.junipersquare.com/ Topics (00:00:00) - Intro (00:01:32) - Nick's background and early career (00:12:24) - Founding and growth of Savanna (00:17:54) - Savanna's business model and strategy (00:22:16) - Vertical integration and market focus (00:26:41) - Current market trends and office sector insights (00:29:31) - New York's resilient recovery (00:32:25) - Challenges and strategies in the office market (00:47:22) - West Palm Beach: a new frontier (00:53:39) - Conclusion and final thoughts

Ernest Hemingway's short story The Killers was memorably adapted and expanded for the big screen by director Robert Siodmak and an incredible cast. We'll hear the stars of that film - plus a radio recreation - as our "Noirvember" series continues. Ava Gardner slows down for a hitchhiker with murder on his mind in "Lady in Distress" (originally aired on CBS on May 1, 1947). Edmond O'Brien is a streetwise reporter out for the story of the year in "The Argyle Album" (originally aired on CBS on September 4, 1947).
