What do you get when you take some of the classic Enlightenment values like reason, fairness, and justice, and substitute them with opinion, privilege and power: The Dark Enlightenment — a movement that is a deliberate oxymoron with a vision to dump democracy and replace it with start-up cities run by CEOs. American blogger Curtis Yarvin, also known by the pen name Mencius Moldbug, is the founder of this movement that advocates for the return of traditional hierarchical societies and monarchy-like governance.
In this episode, Jon unpacks the moment every parent dreads—when a child looks at you and says, “You can't make me.” Rather than framing it as defiance or disrespect, he explores what's actually happening in a child's nervous system when power struggles show up. Parents will walk away with a calmer lens, a clearer understanding of why control battles escalate, and practical ways to lead with confidence, reduce friction, and protect connection—without giving up boundaries.

In this special New Year's Eve solo episode, Dr. Mark Bonta steps away from the guest format to reflect on a landmark year for Ditch the Labcoat and to share where the show is headed next.After surpassing 50 episodes and approaching episode 100, Dr. Bonta looks back on how the podcast evolved in 2025. What started as a more traditional interview-style medical show has grown into deeper, more philosophical conversations about performance, longevity, mental health, neuroplastic symptoms, and the human side of healthcare.Using a surprising year-end analytics insight from his recording platform, he explores why the word “athlete” became one of the most frequently used terms on the show, and what that reveals about how healthcare, high performance, parenting, and recovery intersect. He also shares a candid and self-aware resolution for 2026, including how small environmental changes can shape better habits both personally and professionally.Looking ahead, Dr. Bonta outlines meaningful shifts for the podcast in 2026. Expect fewer episodes, greater depth, clearer thematic focus, and more intentional preparation to better honor guests and their work. He also highlights future areas of exploration, including neuroplastic and invisible illnesses, long COVID, chronic fatigue, high-performance mindsets, and the role of technology and AI in improving care.The episode closes with a deeply personal reflection on caregiving. A simple moment at home caring for his daughter leads to a broader meditation on touch, nursing, administrative burden, burnout, and why “caring” remains the most essential and fragile element of modern healthcare.This episode is both a thank-you to listeners and a statement of purpose for the year ahead.Mark Bonta's Links : https://ditchthelabcoat.com/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/mark-bonta-/ Episode Takeaway 1. Healthcare as Performance: Why the Athlete Mindset Keeps Appearing — Recovery, sleep, nutrition, and training principles apply far beyond elite sports.2. Filler Words Reveal Thinking: What “So” Says About Deep Conversation — Pauses often signal reflection, curiosity, and cognitive processing, not incompetence.3. Behavior Change Starts at Home: Environment Shapes Outcomes — The easiest habits are the ones your surroundings make unavoidable.4. Longevity Is Not Biohacking: It's Consistency Over Intensity — Sustainable routines outperform extreme interventions every time.5. Quality Over Quantity: Fewer Episodes, Deeper Impact — Better preparation and focus create more meaningful learning for listeners.6. Invisible Illnesses Are Real: When Scans Don't Explain Suffering — Neuroplastic symptoms demand credibility, nuance, and evidence-based care.7. Administrative Burden Erodes Care: Documentation Steals Time From Healing — Systems often pull clinicians away from the bedside.8. Burnout's Red Flag: When Caring Disappears — Loss of empathy is a warning sign that support and reflection are urgently needed.Episode Timestamps05:08 – Why “Athlete” Became One of the Most Used Words on the Show07:27 – The Most Commonly Used Word on Ditch the Labcoat (And Why It Matters)09:44 – Setting Yourself Up for Success: Habits, Environment, and Behavior Change11:39 – Longevity Lessons from Athletes and Everyday Life14:02 – Quality Over Quantity: How the Podcast Evolves in 202617:25 – Neuroplastic and Invisible Illnesses: What Medicine Still Misses19:25 – Caregiving, Touch, and the Administrative Burden of Modern Medicine24:15 – Burnout, Red Flags, and the Importance of Never Stopping CaringDISCLAMER >>>>>> The Ditch Lab Coat podcast serves solely for general informational purposes and does not serve as a substitute for professional medical services such as medicine or nursing.

If you've ever felt overwhelmed by New Year's resolutions—or abandoned them by February—this episode is for you. As a busy Christian working mom, the pressure to “do it all” can be exhausting, and resolutions often leave us feeling like we've failed before the year even begins. In today's episode, we explore a different approach: setting intentions instead of resolutions. Intentions focus on purpose, not perfection, and help you align your daily life with God's guidance, your family priorities, and your personal growth. You'll learn: The difference between resolutions and intentions, and why intentions are more sustainable. How to set faith-centered intentions that guide your year without guilt or pressure. Practical steps to create your own intentions that fit your family, work, and spiritual life. How to maintain your intentions even when life gets messy—without feeling like you've failed. By the end, you'll feel empowered to step into this year with clarity, peace, and confidence, letting God's guidance shape your growth rather than societal expectations.
How do I shop online without getting scammed? And is shape wear actually comfortable now? This week, celebrity stylist Donny Galella joins Leigh Campbell to answer the questions we’re all too afraid to ask. He explains why you should ignore "colour analysis" charts, the one item every busy mum needs for instant polish (it’s not activewear), and why you need to treat fashion brands like Taylor Swift and embrace their "new eras." If you’re stuck in a style rut, Donny’s "blind shopping" challenge might be exactly what you need to break free.

In this episode of Doodoo Divas: Smells Like Money, we wrap up our three-part series on geothermal energy by shifting the focus to where the impact is accelerating fastest—the private and industrial sectors. This conversation explores the moment when cooling towers go quiet, and what that silence means for water conservation, operational savings, and the future of industrial infrastructure.As water scarcity, water rights challenges, and regulatory pressure continue to intensify, manufacturers, data centers, refineries, and large-scale commercial facilities are being forced to rethink how they manage heat and water. In this episode, we break down how geothermal systems can fully replace traditional evaporative cooling towers, eliminating millions of gallons of water use, removing chemical treatment requirements, and delivering long-term return on investment that often exceeds energy savings alone.Building on earlier discussions around municipal utilities, this episode dives into real-world private-sector applications. We explore hyperscale data centers consuming millions of gallons of water per day for cooling—and how geothermal solutions are eliminating that demand entirely while repurposing waste heat for agriculture and greenhouses. We also examine manufacturing and pretreatment facilities that are reducing chemical treatment, lowering energy demand, and easing the burden on municipal sewer systems.The conversation extends into oil refineries now facing water curtailment for the first time in decades, resorts and mixed-use developments using recovered heat to power year-round swimmable lagoons, and large commercial facilities discovering that water savings can outweigh energy savings in overall ROI calculations. These examples demonstrate how geothermal is no longer experimental—it is a scalable, proven strategy already reshaping industrial operations.We also discuss why private-sector adoption is accelerating despite upfront capital investment, how typical ROI timelines play out, and why integrated thinking across water, energy, and infrastructure is unlocking new value streams instead of wasting heat through evaporation.The key takeaway from this episode is clear: geothermal energy is not a niche technology or a future concept. It is a practical, available solution delivering water conservation, regulatory resilience, operational efficiency, and new revenue opportunities for organizations willing to challenge long-standing assumptions about cooling and infrastructure design.Connect With Jay Egg:President & Founder: Egg GeoEmail: jay@egggeo.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/egggeothermalairconditioning/Website: egggeo.comI hope you find this episode as informative and as exciting as we have.Please let us know your thoughts about the episode!Connect with Suzan Chin-Taylor, host of The DooDoo Diva's Smells Like Money Podcast:Website: www.creativeraven.com | https://thetuitgroup.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/creativeraven/Email: raven@creativeraven.com Telephone: +1 760-217-8010Listen and subscribe here to your favorite platform:Apple Podcast - Google Podcast - Cast Box - Overcast - Pocket Casts - YouTube - Spotifyhttps://creativeraven.com/smells-like-money-podcast/ Subscribe to the Podcast:https://creativeraven.com/smells-like-money-podcast/Be a guest on our show:https://calendly.com/thetuitgroup/be-a-podcast-guestCheck Out my NEW Digital Marketing E-Course & Coaching Program just for Wastewater Pros:https://store.thetuitgroup.com/diy-digital-marketing-playbook-for-wastewater-pros#GeothermalEnergy #CoolingTowers #WaterConservation #IndustrialInnovation #SustainableInfrastructure #WastewaterIndustry #WaterEnergyNexus #PrivateSectorSolutions #EnergyEfficiency #WaterSavings #IndustrialSustainability #InfrastructureInnovation #CleanEnergy #FutureOfUtilities

How can you build savings and invest if you're not earning much? Hosts Sean Pyles and Elizabeth Ayoola discuss how your relationship with money shapes your financial behaviors and what you can do to change that narrative. Joined by Shannah Game, host of Everyone's Talkin' Money and author of Unraveling Your Relationship with Money, they begin with a discussion of how money beliefs form in childhood, how your body gives clues about financial stress, and how weekly “money dates” can help shift your mindset, spending, and long-term financial outcomes.

They discuss how to build an emergency fund with irregular income, when and how to roll over 403(b) accounts into an IRA, and how to invest small amounts without feeling discouraged.

Diet culture has never really been about health. Yet it's shaped how we think about food, bodies, and worth, often without our consent, and it keeps getting rebranded as something new. From calorie counting and purity culture to influencer wellness and weight-loss drugs, the message stays the same. In this conversation, Ryann, Joyce, and Chloe break down where diet culture actually came from, how it shows up today, and why shame, restriction, and thinness have never been reliable markers of health. They talk about language, marketing, social media, postpartum vulnerability, and what it actually looks like to opt out without giving up on performance, aesthetics, or long-term health.

In this bold and necessary conversation, Keshia challenges the rise of "princess culture" in modern dating, the belief that love means being rescued, provided for, and spared from responsibility. While the fantasy may feel comforting, it often leaves women vulnerable, burned out, and disconnected from their own discernment. This episode is not anti-femininity or anti-provision, it is anti-infantilization. If you want peace, safety, and a truly healthy partnership, this message is for you. What You'll Learn Why "princess culture" is a quiet trap, not empowerment How Disney-style romance conditions women to outsource responsibility The difference between being taken care of and being controlled Why discernment matters more than chemistry The hidden costs of "stay-at-home girlfriend" culture How infantilization sabotages safety, stability, and self-trust What it actually means to show up as a grown, feminine woman Need Support Along the Way?

【欢迎订阅】每天早上5:30,准时更新。【阅读原文】标题:Ditch textbooks and learn how to use a wrench to AI-proof your job?正文:JACOB PALMER knew little about skilled manual jobs growing up, save that they were “dirty, sweaty” and “definitely seemed like lowbrow”. But it took only a year of remote learning during the covid pandemic for Mr Palmer to realise that university wasn't for him. He dropped out after his freshman year, spent the next two years training as an apprentice electrician, and started his own business in 2024.

This fifth episode of the Habits Series spotlights the “just do it” mindset and why ditching all-or-nothing thinking is non-negotiable if you want habits that truly stick. Lesley breaks down how tiny actions create momentum, why immediate celebration rewires your brain, and why failure is simply feedback. She also shares real examples from her Tarot routine and coaching experience to show how experimentation leads to clarity, confidence, and consistency.If you have any questions about this episode or want to get some of the resources we mentioned, head over to LesleyLogan.co/podcast https://lesleylogan.co/podcast/.

Otherwise, you should do none of it. Lesley Logan 0:04 Welcome to the Be It Till You See It podcast where we talk about taking messy action, knowing that perfect is boring. I'm Lesley Logan, Pilates instructor and fitness business coach. I've trained thousands of people around the world and the number one thing I see stopping people from achieving anything is self-doubt. My friends, action brings clarity and it's the antidote to fear. Each week, my guest will bring bold, executable, intrinsic and targeted steps that you can use to put yourself first and Be It Till You See It. It's a practice, not a perfect. Let's get started.Lesley Logan 0:46 Hi, Be It babe. Welcome back to our series on habits. We are working our way through. We are now on the other side of the half, and I am so excited. If this is your first time listening to us, I recommend going back to the beginning of the habits. You have to go back to episode one, about the beginning of the habits, just so you're not lost. And this is really where I just want to give you a pep talk, because when I was coaching people through their habits during, like, to do my habits coaching, training, years ago, I had to coach people for a couple of weeks, and no matter how much they were told by the expert himself that they need to make it smaller, that they need to make it they can't be all or nothing, that they're in experimentation mode, I found a lot of people being hard on themselves because they were unable to do the thing that they wanted to do. But they they didn't make it very small. They said, okay, for example, the habit was like, oh, I want to run five days a week, and I'm going to run a mile. And then the first day they didn't have enough time for a mile. The second day they did it, but then they were sore the third day, so they couldn't, then something happened on the fourth day, then on the fifth day, they didn't have enough time. All of a sudden, like, I'm not good enough. And that it, it doesn't even, insert your desired habit here. You know that's why it 30, 21, days, 30 days, 70 days, to make a habit isn't a real thing, because it's not about the the consistency every single day. Consistency really is a heartbeat. It's about actually making sure the thing that you want to have it's a habit is first of all something you want to do, right? It's really easy for us to have habits of other people's. Second, it's important that not only is it to have something you want to do, but we are putting it in an achievable bite size situation so that you can actually do the thing, so you can actually, like, check the box, right, from my perfectionist and my my achievers here, but a lot of you are overachievers and have an all or nothing mindset when it comes to things. And if you are going to do something, you should do all of it. Otherwise you should do none of it. And we come across this a lot at OPC. We have people who are like, oh, I only logged in once a week, and so I'm going to quit this. And it's like, once a week. That's what like, are you doing something else the rest week? No, well, then, isn't once a week better than nothing? Yeah, you're not wasting your money, right? You're not wasting your money at all. So we have to be kinder to ourselves. And I think one of the reasons, I think that, like this podcast, exists, is just to remind people that you're doing a great job and the thing you want to have and the things you want to have and the person you want to be, all that is possible, but doesn't come because you, like, snapped your fingers and woke up that day the next day, like, confident and put together with all the accolades. No, it comes together little by little, step by step, one brick at a time. Sometimes a brick falls, sometimes the brick is a little crooked, and then you learn how to be a better brick builder, or layer, brick layer. You know, you learn. You learn you can go faster, right? You know, the first time I, like, ran up a flight of stairs as a runner, like, I had to, like, look at every single step I was doing, right? There's these stairs in Santa Monica, they're like, super famous, oh, I kind of, I wonder if they're still there actually. They're in the,they're in the Palisades area and we would run from the top of the bluffs in Santa Monica down to Palisades and back up, right? And these really cool stairs, and the first, like the first set, first couple times, I couldn't even go all the way up the stairs, and then going down the stairs, I had to have my hand on the rail, right. And so, you know, but then I kept going, and it became easier to get all the way up the stairs. Came easier to just go down the stairs without touching the handle. Became easier to go two steps at a time. I got faster. Started timing myself. I got faster, right? In fact, let me tell you about these stairs. There was this guy who was going up them on a single leg all the way up, and then running down, then a single the other single leg all the way up. We're talking like so many flights of stairs. The fire department uses this to train and it happened to be like an Olympic speed skater. So anyways, all this to say, you actually don't get where you want because you snapped your fingers, you get there one step at a time, slow, slower, like, oh, you missed a step. Oh, you tripped up the step to toe. Oh, okay now you're getting faster now, now you're getting a straight line now, oh, now it's gonna be you could do with your eyes closed. Now you can do it in a single leg. So the all or nothing mindset is actually not a single person you admire in this world did anything with an all or nothing vibe. Every single one of them failed, hit their like literally had a door slammed in their face, fell to the ground, landed in mud, got up and did it again. So habits are not built on all or nothing mindsets, they will it will never happen. You will never have the habit you want. Another mindset you do need to have is a just do it mindset. Like, a just be it mindset. And that's hard. Like, it's easy to go, I can't do it right, so I'm not gonna do it today. I slept in. I'm not gonna do today. So today, for example, on the day we're recording this, I actually barely have enough time to do any of the things that I really wanted to do. I, like, I said in the last episode, I'm, like, really enjoying this, like, studying (inaudible). I was like, oh, I'm gonna do a card today. And I'm sitting on my desk and I'm gonna just do one card, and I'll open up my emails, right? And the truth is is, like, I sat down, I had seven minutes between when I sat down and what I had to do next. And so it's like, well, I'll do seven minutes of this thing. Just do it, right? Not an all or nothing thing, because I would, if I had that mindset, I wouldn't have done it yet. And what I can say right now is I might not be on card number three, right? I just started this yesterday, but I am halfway through card number two, and it's quite possible that I will have seven more minutes later today, and I can actually work on it, but the having a more just do it, just be it, like, do do what you can imperfectly is actually going to make your habits more successful. It's why a lot of people are so successful. It's why a lot of people who like, fail and fail and fail until they get it like they learn so much from the failure. Exactly, for example, today, like when I did the first day, it took me, like, 20 minutes, and I was like, because, because I was reading a bunch of different things, I had to get a bunch of different stuff together, like I was trying to connect the dots. So as of right now, as the time of recording this, I actually don't know how long it takes me to do one card with all the different questions that they ask. Does it take me 20 minutes? Does it take me 15 minutes? Does it take me? Doesn't take seven. Takes longer than that. So because I don't know that, I have to just do what I can do, and then celebrate that I did do it. And by the way, I did celebrate. I was like, oh, checked out a page, worked out, really did a great job. It's amazing, right? So, so it's really important to and ditch the all or nothing. And said, go for the like, you know, done is better than perfect mindset. Okay? And then I have mentioned this before, but I actually want to talk about, like, the celebration part of how the habits are created, because it is the thing that is so key. And then I found that a lot of people had a hard time doing, right? They, they almost had a harder time doing this, and they did making things smaller, but it was a close, close touch right, like I could, for example, if I'm in my experimentation mode of this new habit, if I find that a couple days, like a card a day is really hard, maybe I can do one card like each day I open the book, but I do one page of the book, right? Like that might be where I have to do it, rather, because each card has about three pages. So maybe I have to go one page, maybe I have to go to just one question. Maybe I have to just, maybe the habit actually becomes just opening the book, and anything I do is extra credit. Do we see how we can make it I can make it so small that I end up just getting to pick up the book, right? We talked about that in episode one. Just pick up the book. So you got to make it super small, and you have to celebrate. So celebrations are the thing that I find that perfectionists have the hardest time with, like, what? Because it's like, well, is it really worthy of celebration if I just picked up the book? Yeah, it is. If you want to keep picking up the book, it is very much worth it. It is so important. So there's over 100 different ideas of celebration that BJ taught us, but I will tell you his really fun activity for figuring out how you like to celebrate. So take a bunch of different ways you can celebrate the moment. A song you like to play, a dance you like to do, a kid you want to high five. Hopefully it's your kid. You know, like, maybe put on your favorite lipstick and go amazing, maybe high five yourself, right? All these different ways you could celebrate and then set a timer for five minutes and go into a room in your house that's messy. Every time you put something away, try one of the new things on your celebration list so you find one that feels easy, authentic and totally you. That's the way you figure it out. So when you figure it out, right? So for me, I actually do say it out loud. It's, if you're around me, you'll hear me do it. And it's because, one, we all need a pep talk, sometimes, from time to time, like, yes, people are lovely, and I get lovely DMs about how amazing I am and what they love. But like, the truth is, is that, like, I have to love what I do, too, and that, in fact, my voice is louder than the other voices. So I'm negative of myself, I don't even hear the compliments. But if I'm positive to myself, I can totally receive those compliments. So I celebrate verbally, and it's usually something amazing, but sometimes, if it's something that's a little harder, a little more challenging for me, something I'm like, I am struggling to enjoy, I turn on the music like, our house doesn't have music going on 24/7 I wish it did. I kind of, like, I'm like, how do we get a Sonos type of thing? Can, Sonos, do you want to sponsor me? How do I have because I would love this music playing in the whole house while we're working. It would definitely cover the fact that I can hear my husband in his office. But I put music on and I put on, like, songs that, like, I just absolutely love, like, sometimes that's my way of celebrating. It really helps me, like, brightens the mood, sometimes the best way. So, you know, figure out, figuring out the way you like to celebrate. And it cannot, we talked about this in earlier series, or the series, cannot be a reward later on. It has to be in the moment, in the moment, and you need to do it, even if you think about doing the habit and you miss it. So like, if tomorrow I think about doing the Tarot book, but I don't get to the Tarot book, I have to celebrate that I thought about it in that moment, because it will help me continue to build that habit. I'm going to go on tour. I'm recording this before I go on tour. And so, you know, I am bringing on tour, and I how it will take. This experiment will continue to go because it's like, okay, when on tour is it easy for me to grab this book? Is it beginning of the day? Is it at the end of the day? Is it, you know, when I'm eating dinner? Is it before I leave the van to go the gym? Like, when is it? Right now, I can tell you right now, it's not gonna happen in the morning. As much as I would love it to like, it would just like, start the day there, it's not easy, because I have to turn on a light. My husband's in the van. Dog has to pee. I have a limited time to work out and get my, get ready for the day, so I already know that that's not gonna be when I do it. So at the home, it's like before I when I sit down at my desk to work, I will do my Tarot like it's gonna, on the tour, it's gonna have to be like every day before I go to bed I will do the Tarot, right, like it might have to be like that. I don't know, I might like it more. It might become part of my nighttime routine, that we will find out. Lesley Logan 11:26 And so I just want to wrap this up by saying you're allowed to, in your process of implementing habits, get it wrong. Get the time wrong, get the prompt wrong, get the location of when you want to do it wrong. Get the size of how tiny it needs to be to get started, you're allowed to get it wrong, because every time you do, it's feedback and information about how you operate better, how what makes you tick, what makes it easier for you to build habits and and truly putting in the right spot so you're not overwhelmed, so that it's, it's, it's in the part of the day that actually fuels you. And also sometimes, as you're working through a habit, you realize you don't want it, like, I, there are some habits I really have wanted to create, or I thought I did, and then in the effort of putting through it, some of the habits that I thought would get me to the goal that I wanted weren't the thing that did it at all. They weren't the thing that did it at all, right? And I just want to share that with you, because you're not always going to get the exact right habit down. Not not only like, like as a habit, but it might not. It might even like, in the process of experimenting, might be like, you know what? I actually love doing this in the morning, but I don't want to do this in the morning. It needs to be something else. Like, I thought that running would help me feel like the health goal that I had, and it's actually not running, it's boxing, like you're the you're allowed to fail, because it's just feedback that helps you get to know yourself more. And the more you do this, the more you work this series, the easier it is for you to actually add in new habits. You start to be quicker going, oh, I know that's gonna be hard for me. I'm not gonna do it. Oh, I know that's going to be a little easier for me, and I want to do it right? Or, you know, I have this feeling of myself that I don't want to do it. Last time I felt this feeling, I should have listened. So I'm gonna listen right now. You just get to know yourself more. Failure is feedback, and I really wish we could give failure like a better there should be another word for failure, like being in process, right, is what you're trying to do. So whether you get like you nail the habit today and you don't tomorrow, it's just information on, do I have the right prompt? Is this tiny enough? Is it? Is it something that I am I enjoying it, right? Am I enjoying it? And then, most importantly, let yourself be a beginner, right? You're new to this habit. You're new to, even if it's something you used to do and you got out of the habit, you unraveled it, right? You're it's new to you and the person you are today. And so it just takes time. So ditch all or nothing. Take the messy action, celebrate what you did do and reflect, correct and continue. You got this. You're amazing. Have an awesome day.

Some Canadians are changing their travel plans and heading to international destinations outside of the United States. We speak with two Canadian snowbirds, one who decided to travel to Mexico, rather than make their annual trip to Texas. While another returned to their Florida home, but not without some hesitation, only to find fewer Canadians around. And we hear from Wayne Smith, the Director of the Institute for Hospitality and Tourism Research on the latest numbers, what's driving them, and what that means for local economies.

Today's Headlines: Trump escalated toward open conflict with Venezuela by labeling the country a “foreign terrorist organization,” blockading sanctioned oil tankers, and laying groundwork that looks a lot like a path to war — even as U.S. oil companies quietly signal they're not interested in going back. Abroad, Britain's MI6 chief warned that tech billionaires and algorithms are reshaping global power faster than politicians, while Putin doubled down on threatening Ukraine with either invasion or “negotiation,” plus some nuclear saber-rattling for flair. Back home, Trump expanded his travel ban, House Republicans briefly rebelled to pass a doomed healthcare bill, and Jack Smith told Congress he found proof Trump tried to overturn the 2020 election and obstruct justice. The FCC chair openly claimed the agency isn't independent from the president — then removed the word “independent” from its website mid-hearing — as the Senate confirmed Elon Musk's friend to run NASA. Meanwhile, Dan Bongino announced he's quitting the FBI, Alan Dershowitz floated a very “it depends” take on a third Trump term, Ghislaine Maxwell moved to toss her conviction, and the DOJ is legally required to release the Epstein files tomorrow. On the crime front, the Brown University shooter is still at large, an MIT professor's killing is now a homicide investigation, Nick Reiner appeared in court for his parents' murders, and — in truly end-times energy — the Oscars are leaving ABC for YouTube.

You know that feeling when you spend half your day chasing trends, tweaking hashtags, and wondering why your brilliant post is showing up three days late in someone's feed? Yeah, me too. That's why I sat down with Alice Seba, a content marketing pro who's been helping online publishers turn persuasive content into real revenue for more than twenty years. She's sold millions of dollars' worth of content — and she swears the secret isn't outsmarting the algorithm. It's out-connecting it. As Alice put it, “You don't need the algorithm to notice you if your community does. When you connect, collaborate, and share stories, you build something the algorithm can't touch — real relationships.” And that's the magic. When you stop trying to please the algorithm gods and start showing up for actual humans, you get noticed by the people who really matter — even when the social media winds shift. Here are a few big takeaways from our chat: Stop chasing the algorithm. Your business isn't with code; it's with people. Spend your energy on conversations — comments, DMs, collaborations — the kind that build real community and loyalty. Build your own audience. Social platforms change faster than fashion trends, but your email list is forever. Offer something useful, keep it conversational, and land in their inbox where you actually belong. Make your offers sound human. Ditch the sales pitch. Mention your freebie or toolkit the same way you'd share a good book recommendation with a friend. Helpful, not pushy. Use social time wisely. Ten intentional minutes beats an hour of doom-scrolling. Pop in, connect, and get out before you start comparing your breakfast to someone else's curated lifestyle. When you strip away all the noise, the algorithm might be unpredictable, people aren't. They remember who shows up, who listens, and who actually cares. Because no algorithm can replace a genuine connection — and honestly, that's the best kind of marketing there is.
On today’s jam-packed show, Josh breaks down the president’s primetime address—what he thought the president got right, and the key points he believes were missing. He also calls out the bad actors who completely misled the public about what the speech would actually cover. Josh then gives the latest on the Brown University murders and the increasingly botched investigation into finding the suspect. Finally, he takes aim at the voices on the Left who refuse to confront the threat of radical Islam, insisting instead that Donald Trump is somehow a bigger danger to America than the extremists committing real-world terrorism.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The old playbook of "buy ads, rank for keywords, and wait for patients" is failing. According to Paige Velasquez Budde, CEO of Zilker Media and author of The Strategic Business Influencer, we've entered an era of "corporate suspicion." Trust in institutions is at an all-time low, while trust in individuals is skyrocketing. For health and wellness organizations, you can no longer rely on your company brand alone. AI Search Demands Leader Visibility Patients now find health providers through AI platforms like ChatGPT, not just Google. Budde calls this Generative Engine Optimization (GEO). Unlike traditional SEO, AI platforms prioritize trust and credibility over keywords. "You've gotta earn trust, people to people. It's no longer people to logo," Budde emphasizes. When AI aggregates answers about wellness clinics, it searches for verified, authoritative sources—leaders who are visible, cited, and trusted. "If you are thinking you can pay your way to AI discoverability, that is not the case right now," says Budde. If you hide behind a corporate logo, AI platforms may overlook you entirely. A lack of personal visibility "is actually hurting you." PR Outpaces Traditional SEO Today, "It's no longer the loudest one that wins, it's the most trusted." While SEO remains relevant, Public Relations and Micromedia build trust faster with both AI algorithms and human patients. You don't need CNN. Niche channels carry more weight. Budde distinguishes between "Name Brand" media like Forbes and "Micromedia"—industry podcasts, niche blogs, and influencers. She estimates "about 60% or more [of AI citations] come from true journalistic content." Without media coverage, you're invisible to the algorithms defining search's future. When featured on a respected podcast or blog, you borrow their trust through "Authority by association." Health practice owners get discovered and trusted faster than by publishing on their own blog alone. Audit Your Digital Presence You don't need a million followers. You simply need to influence the right 500 people. Treat your digital presence like a passport—verified and accurate. Google yourself in Incognito Mode. Search your name in ChatGPT and ask, "Who is [Your Name]?" If AI doesn't know you or the information is wrong, you have a discoverability problem. Ditch stock photos. Authenticity builds trust. "Throw stock images out the door as much as you can," Budde advises. Use photos of you in action—leading a class, speaking to patients, or teaching. Think Like an Editor Stop thinking like a marketer and start thinking like a media outlet. Budde suggests a specific content mix to keep audiences engaged without burning them out on sales pitches: 40% News-Driven: Commentary on headlines and new health studies 40% Relationship-Driven: Interviewing peers and partners (creating a "win-win") 20% You-Driven: Your personal story and promotional material Don't build your house on rented land. Social media algorithms change constantly. Use your social media and PR wins to drive traffic back to assets you control: your website, your email list, or your podcast. In this podcast you'll learn: Why AI search and GEO make individual leader visibility critical for health and wellness organizations How PR, micromedia, and thought leadership strategies can help wellness and health practice owners Actionable steps health and wellness leaders can take to elevate their credibility and create a durable reputation EPISODE RESOURCES: Website LinkedIn ZilkerMedia

Harmful fats can be incredibly damaging to your health! Find out about the most dangerous fat to remove from your diet immediately and which healthy fats to replace it with. Ditch the unhealthy fats today! 0:00 Introduction: The worst fats for health0:19 Unhealthy fats explained0:53 Monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats2:02 What are hydrogenated fats?3:11 Saturated fat3:50 Side effects of unhealthy fats 8:57 The most dangerous fat11:48 The benefits of healthy fatWhat are the unhealthiest types of fats? Let's take a look. Saturated fats are very stable and don't react much to oxygen because they don't have double bonds.Fats with double bonds are more unstable and react more readily with oxygen, resulting in increased oxidation. Monounsaturated fats have one double bond, while polyunsaturated fats have many double bonds. More double bonds mean more oxidation. Avocado and olive oil are monounsaturated fats, so they're moderately stable. Polyunsaturated fats, such as corn oil, sunflower oil, safflower oil, soy oil, canola oil, and cottonseed oil, contain many double bonds, so they're unstable and prone to significant oxidation. Hydrogenated oils are unsaturated fats that have been chemically turned into saturated fats. Saturated fats such as lard, tallow, and butter are solid at room temperature and are very stable. Although they are unsaturated fats, fish oil and cod liver oil have potent anti-inflammatory benefits and omega-3s, but can sometimes be rancid due to their instability. Be careful where you source them!Heat and light create toxic byproducts in unsaturated fats called aldehydes. These toxic compounds destroy your DNA, lodge in your cell membranes, and damage the insulin receptors on the surface of your cells. They can also make your cells stiff and fragile. For years, saturated fats have been demonized, and unsaturated fats have been recommended! This has also occurred with other foods, such as red meat and grains. Check out this comprehensive list, which ranges from the most harmful fats to the healthiest. Number 1 is the most dangerous! 1. Partially hydrogenated fat2. Hydrogenated fat3. Reused PUFA frying oil4. Soy oil5. Corn oil6. Sunflower oil or safflower oil7. Cottonseed oil8. Canola oil9. Grapeseed oil10. Rice bran oil11. Peanut oil12. Refined avocado oil13.

I'm about to make life coaches mad at me. Smart goals? I think they're stupid. And I've tried them. Specific, measurable, achievable, realistic, time-bound. Sounds great on paper. But two of those letters are killing your dreams before you even start. If you know you can achieve it, your goal is too small. If it feels realistic, you're not thinking big enough. I break down why big ass goals beat smart goals every time and why science backs up going bigger than you think possible. Featured Story I used to be just like everyone else. Read all the books. Watched all the videos. Tried every framework and acronym some guy like me made up. Smart goals included. I dove right in because I'm that person. You tell me to do it, I'll go do it. But something didn't add up. When I weighed myself every morning (before the BCI—body crap index), I could measure progress. But the goals that actually changed my life? They were never realistic or achievable when I started. This podcast wasn't realistic 20 years ago. I couldn't even see what it would become. The goals that fire you up make everyone around you wonder what you're thinking. Plot twist: You're wondering the same thing. Important Points You're hardwired for goal setting—your eyes triangulate targets with every step you take, making you a natural goal-setting machine. If you know you can achieve a goal, it's not really a goal—it's a to-do item, and your dreams deserve bigger than that. Your mind achieves goals the moment you set them, which is why they get hard to finish—you've already arrived in your head. Memorable Quotes "If you know you can do it, that's not really a goal. That's a to-do thing, right?" "The best goals in the world, the ones that really fire you up, everybody around you is like, what are you thinking, right?" "Big ass goals need to be a little bigger than you." Scott's Three-Step Approach Make it specific and measurable—if you can't see it clearly and track progress, you're setting yourself up to drift. Ditch achievable and realistic—the person you need to be to reach your goal doesn't exist yet, so stop playing small. Go big enough that you can't not do it—when a goal excites you so much you'll figure it out no matter what, you've found the sweet spot.

You're doing everything "right." You're eating less. You're moving more. You're cutting carbs. You're even breastfeeding, which is supposed to "melt the weight off," right? Yet the scale isn't budging. Your energy is tanking. Your mood is suffering. And honestly? You're starting to feel like your body is broken. Here's what nobody tells you: The advice you've been following isn't wrong for everyone… it's just wrong for YOU right now. Your body isn't the same as it was before having kids. Your hormones are different. Your metabolism is different. Your needs are different. But the weight loss rules? They're still the same old "eat less, move more" nonsense that's actually working AGAINST you. In this week's episode, Brooke breaks down: Why the "eat less, move more" rule backfires for moms (and what actually works) The real reason breastfeeding alone won't melt the weight off Why cutting carbs is sabotaging your mood AND your milk supply How strength training beats cardio for long-term results Why the scale is lying to you (and what to focus on instead) How to rebuild your metabolism instead of restricting it The truth? Weight loss after baby doesn't have to feel like a battle. When you shift from restriction to rebuilding, everything changes, your energy, your mood & even your metabolism.

Ian sits down with Stacey Epstein, CEO of Magnetic, where she helps brands create clear positioning and go-to-market strategies that drive lasting demand. She talks about how to succeed in interacting with the board, outlining do's and don'ts, and providing advice around defensiveness and preparation. Key Takeaways:The board is there to help you succeed. Treat them like advisors and go to them with questions and issues that you are trying to solve. Don't try to hide problems, do demonstrate your wins.There is an art to defending yourself without being defensive. Defensiveness often results in a board member feeling unheard and pushing harder. Take the note, even if you can't take the proposed solution. Ditch the slide decks and excel spreadsheets, and tell the story for board members. A unified board letter from the leadership team is a great way to do this and increases alignment before a meeting. Quote: “ We're all on the same team. We all wanna win. Like we're here together in this board meeting because we want the company to be successful and we want to win. And, . There should be no hiding of issues. In fact, that's what the board is there for. The board is there to help you get through the challenging times.”Episode Timestamps: 00:53 The Role of the Board in Marketing02:20 Navigating Board Interactions03:06 Performance and Authenticity in Board Meetings04:29 The Complexity of Marketing Roles08:51 Aligning Marketing and Sales16:56 The Importance of SDR Feedback19:13 AI and Marketing Technology Decisions21:44 Navigating Board Dynamics as a CMO21:59 Building Relationships and Credibility23:11 The Importance of Authenticity in Marketing24:22 Handling Investor Feedback Tactfully29:16 Defending Your Marketing Strategy36:03 Effective Board Communication Strategies39:10 The Value of Board LettersSponsor:Pipeline Visionaries is brought to you by Qualified.com.

In this week's episode, we're covering a mix of personal milestones and major industry shifts. First, Ryan reflects on turning 30 — what it means, what's changed, and how your thirties feel different from your twenties. Then we dive into the big question for real estate agents going into 2026: What content strategies should you finally leave behind? We break down the posts, trends, and habits that aren't moving the needle anymore — and what to replace them with if you want real results. Finally, we unpack the massive news coming out of Australia: social media accounts belonging to users under 16 are being shut down. We explore what this means for the future of online platforms, how governments are responding to digital addiction, and why adults may not be as far removed from the problem as we think.
In this episode of Coin Stories, Natalie Brunell sits down with Keonne Rodriguez, CEO of Samourai Wallet, for a wide-ranging — and tough — conversation ahead of Keonne beginning a five-year prison sentence after pleading guilty to one count of conspiracy to operate a money transmitting business while knowing the business transmitted criminal proceeds. Natalie asks Keonne on the government's case, including prosecutors' claims that Samourai's coin-mixing tools amounted to "money laundering," and allegations that he encouraged criminals to use the platform. Keonne responds with his philosophical and practical defense of financial privacy, the distinction between self-custody and the traditional banking system, and what's at stake if privacy tools are effectively outlawed. We discuss: Why financial privacy is a human right — and where the line is drawn Bitcoin self-custody vs surveillance finance What coin mixing is, and why prosecutors call it "money laundering" The allegations that Samourai facilitated or encouraged illicit activity What the loss of privacy means for freedom in a digital world Petition: https://www.change.org/p/stand-up-for-freedom-pardon-the-innocent-coders-jailed-for-building-privacy-tools ---- Order Natalie's new book "Bitcoin is For Everyone," a simple introduction to Bitcoin and what's broken in our current financial system: https://amzn.to/3WzFzfU —— Coin Stories is powered by Gemini.
