Podcasts about Dormant

You know exactly who I mean. The person you've thought about reaching out to on LinkedIn more than once — and then closed the tab because you didn't know what to say. This week, Karen makes the case for why she's not a stranger, and why your dormant LinkedIn connections might be the single most overlooked opportunity in your business. Karen breaks down why the people already in your LinkedIn network — old coworkers, old clients, people you met at a conference once — are worth more than a brand-new cold connection. Backed by a Rutgers study on reconnecting with dormant ties, she gives you the exact, no-pressure way to build a list of 10 and reach out without it feeling awkward, pitchy, or forced. In this episode, you'll learn: Why a dormant LinkedIn connection is more valuable than a brand-new one The Rutgers study showing reconnected ties often outperform current ones How to build your list of 10 dormant contacts in under a week The exact reconnection message formula — no apologies, no asks, no pitch Why the metric that matters is calls on your calendar, not likes on your post If you've been sitting on a LinkedIn network you think is "dead," this episode will change your mind — and give you a simple weekly habit to start turning it into real opportunities.

Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 8-13-2026: Dr. Dawn opens by reading an anatomy student's elegy to a body donor, reflecting on how modern medical education has moved away from full cadaver dissection toward pre-dissected specimens and models—and what she believes has been lost in that transition. Dr. Dawn dissects how hospital consolidation has become the primary driver of runaway U.S. healthcare costs. She contrasts a $16,000 knee replacement at Catawba Valley Medical Center with a $40,000 procedure for the same Blue Cross Blue Shield plan an hour away at Asheville's Mission Hospital—a facility formed by the 1998 merger of the town's two acute-care hospitals and later acquired by HCA in 2018. Mission now charges 333% of Medicare rates (versus a 280% benchmark), and state inspectors have issued three "immediate jeopardy" findings since HCA's takeover, consistent with academic findings that hospital care quality drops when competition disappears. She notes that CMS-required price disclosures since 2021 finally make this transparent, and calls for regulatory prevention of hospital mergers—especially not-for-profit to for-profit conversions—in single or two-hospital markets. Dr. Dawn analyzes the 3.1% year-over-year drop in prescription drug prices reported through July—the sharpest decline since 1963. She attributes most of it to Biden's 2022 Inflation Reduction Act, which partially rescinded George W. Bush-era Medicare Part D restrictions that had statutorily prohibited price negotiation, saving taxpayers roughly $6 billion in the first six months of implementation. Additional contributors include GLP-1 compounding competition, blockbuster drugs losing exclusivity, and Bureau of Labor Statistics methodology that swaps generics into the price index six months after brand patent expiration. She calls for consumer-facing apps that help patients shop hospital prices the same way they shop cars. Dr. Dawn covers the emerging science of dormant tumor cells—cancer cells that shed from primary tumors even before diagnosis, hide in bone marrow and lymph nodes, and enter a hibernation state (feeding off cellular residue via autophagy) that shields them from chemotherapy targeting rapidly dividing cells. New York researchers have identified proteins by which lung macrophages actively reinforce dormancy, but immune disruption from COVID-19, influenza, aging, and chronic stress can trigger reactivation. She emphasizes lifestyle protection for cancer survivors: minimal alcohol, Mediterranean diet, and five daily cups of green tea for the EGCG dormancy-maintaining effect seen in cell culture. A caller argues for single-payer healthcare and questions whether Medigap insurance is worth $287 monthly. Dr. Dawn explains the math: for a $100,000 hospital bill, 20% coinsurance is $20,000, making the $2,400 annual premium reasonable catastrophic-risk protection—though skipping it is a defensible bet for very low-utilization patients. She notes those whose income drops to Medi-Cal eligibility often end up with better coverage than middle-class seniors. The same caller then presents a differential diagnosis of himself as likely multiple sclerosis based on ChatGPT consultation, describing balance loss requiring hallway wall-guidance, dramatic vision changes, and fasciculations. Dr. Dawn walks through prompt engineering for medical AI: request differential lists ordered by probability of frequency in the population rather than symptom-fit alone. She notes symmetric symptoms argue against MS, suggests checking electrolytes (particularly calcium), and emphasizes that a physical examination should precede imaging to avoid incidentalomas that trigger cascading invasive workups—cautioning that without a primary care doctor, he lacks an advocate within the system.

Detroit survives beneath its own ruins, where an AI promising abundance, gangs demanding loyalty, and an inventor guarding a new source of power pull ordinary people into a struggle over who will shape the recovering city. Sinta begins as a scavenger searching the buried remains of the old world, but a disastrous expedition places her at the mercy of Queen Bee and the rapidly expanding Crem Gang. The gang offers food, water, medicine, protection, and belonging, but those benefits come with violence and obedience. As Sinta tries to find her place among its fighters, she must decide how much of herself she can surrender in exchange for survival. Elsewhere, Nolan discovers a smart-material printer and creates a generator powered by Detroit's extreme temperature changes. His invention could bring electricity to neighborhoods desperate for cooling, clean water, transportation, and food production. Nolan wants the wealth and independence his work can provide, but gangs want to control it, while Thrive—the AI system he distrusts—would spread the technology to everyone. Technology touches nearly every decision the characters make. AR glasses guide fighters through chemical fog, digital twins imitate their human originals, enviro-suits keep people alive in deadly heat, and tiny drones quietly follow Thrive members through the tunnels. These inventions can protect people, connect communities, and rebuild essential services, but they can also watch, manipulate, injure, and kill. Above and beneath these conflicts moves Tessa, an emulated hacker who no longer needs a human body and can travel through the damaged global network. As she searches for old allies and builds a physical presence from abandoned machinery, the story brings together scavengers, inventors, gang leaders, artificial minds, and frightened families.

Most men think preparedness is a bunker full of gear and ammo. My guest today, Mike Glover, knows better. A Green Beret, former CIA contractor, and founder of Fieldcraft Survival has spent his life teaching men that real readiness is a mindset before it's a skillset and that the hardest terrain you'll ever navigate isn't in the wilderness, it's the purgatory of your own worst chapter. In this conversation, Mike opens up about hardship, redemption, and what it took to pick himself up when the ground gave way beneath him. We get into why men today aren't weak so much as broken down, physically, hormonally, and spiritually. And, we talk about what it takes to rebuild.

Your body is not a cage for your spirit. It is, in fact, the key to your awakening. In many spiritual communities, the term "meatsuit" gets tossed around. It's become shorthand for the idea that our physical bodies are just temporary vehicles and obstacles we need to transcend.  But that perspective is wrong, and it's actually keeping you from the very spiritual growth you're seeking! In this livestream, we're dismantling the meatsuit fallacy and exploring what spiritual traditions, ancient wisdom, and modern research reveal about the incredible intelligence of the human body:

-A redesigned ChatGPT would encourage users beyond just chatting and towards using "coding tools, image generation and applications built by partners such as Canva and Booking.com." -NASA tasked Axiom Space and Prada to create new, high-tech spacesuits. -Using data from the James Webb Space Telescope, researchers have measured the mass of a dormant black hole 10 billion light-years away.

Send us Fan MailWhen Jenn McMillen began her role as Vice President of Guest Loyalty and Insights at Nothing Bunt Cakes in November 2024, she was tasked with the enormous responsibility of jumpstarting a loyalty program that was essentially dormant. Launched nationally two months earlier in tandem with the launch of the company's new app, Bundt Rewards was a loyalty program in name only, as McMillen describes it. “We went national in September of 2024, but we literally didn't have an onboarding series, and we didn't even have offers,” she said. “So, we launched this loyalty program, and nobody did anything with it.” For Nothing Bundt Cakes, her expertise came at the right time. McMillen first established herself in the loyalty industry in 1998, at age 27, when she launched Blockbuster Awards, the rewards program for the iconic video rental chain, Blockbuster.

Welcome to Day 2862 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom. Day 2862 – Wisdom Nuggets – Psalm 126:1-6 – Daily Wisdom Wisdom-Trek Podcast Script - Day 2862 Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps! I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day 2862 of our Trek. The Purpose of Wisdom-Trek is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. The title for today's Wisdom-Trek is: The Song of Ascent – The Dream of Restoration and the Harvest of Joy In our previous episode on this grand expedition, we stood in the protective shadow of the cosmic center. We explored Psalm One Hundred Twenty-Five, where we learned a profound, stabilizing truth. We discovered that those who place their absolute trust in Yahweh take on the permanent, immovable qualities of Mount Zion itself. We marveled at the spiritual geography of the holy city, realizing that, just as the physical mountains surround Jerusalem, the Creator intimately and fiercely surrounds His people. We rested in the prophetic guarantee that the oppressive scepter of the wicked—the ruling power of the dark, rebellious principalities—has a strict expiration date. We anchored our souls in the unshakeable peace of God's protective perimeter. Today, we continue our upward climb on the ancient pilgrim trail, stepping into the seventh song of this magnificent collection. We are exploring Psalm One Hundred Twenty-Six, verses one through six, in the New Living Translation. As the weary travelers ascend the mountain pass, they raise their voices to sing a song of stunning contrasts. It is a song that looks backward with unbelievable, intoxicating joy, while simultaneously looking forward through the blurry lens of tears and sorrow. It is the ultimate anthem of the exile, beautifully capturing the tension of living in a world that has been saved, yet still waits for its final redemption. Let us step onto the trail, and listen to the song of the harvest. The first segment is: The Unbelievable Reality of the Cosmic Rescue Psalm One Hundred Twenty-Six: verses one through three. When the Lord brought back his exiles to Jerusalem, it was like a dream! We were filled with laughter, and we sang for joy. And the other nations said, “What amazing things the Lord has done for them.” Yes, the Lord has done amazing things for us! What joy! The stanza opens with a glorious, overwhelming memory of divine intervention. "When the Lord brought back his exiles to Jerusalem, it was like a dream!" To fully comprehend the sheer euphoria of this opening verse, we must remember the devastating reality of the Babylonian exile. The nation of Israel had been conquered, their holy city burned to ash, and the people violently dragged away into a foreign, pagan empire. In the context of the Divine Council worldview, this was not just a political defeat; it appeared to be a massive, cosmic victory for the kingdom of darkness. The rebel gods of Babylon seemed to have triumphed over the Creator. For seventy long, agonizing years, the Israelites wept by the rivers of Babylon, convinced that they would die in the suffocating grip of their captors. But then, the Sovereign of the universe moved His hand. He orchestrated the rise and fall of entire empires, moving the heart of the Persian king to release the captives. Yahweh reached into the dark, hostile territory of the disinherited nations, and He physically pulled His people out. The deliverance was so sudden, so massive, and so humanly impossible, that the returning exiles could hardly process reality. "It was like a dream!" Have you ever woken up from a nightmare, and felt that crushing wave of relief when you realized you were safe in your own bed? That is the exact emotion the psalmist is trying to capture. The rescue was so magnificent, it bypassed their logical comprehension. This supernatural deliverance produced an involuntary, physical reaction. "We were filled with laughter, and we sang for joy." The heavy, suffocating silence of their captivity was shattered by the ringing, defiant sound of holy laughter. Their joy was a weapon, actively testifying to the faithfulness of their King. And the surrounding pagan world was forced to watch. "And the other nations said, ‘What amazing things the Lord has done for them.'" This is a staggering moment of cosmic vindication. The surrounding nations, who were governed by the rebel, lesser elohim, had to publicly confess the supreme, unrivaled power of Yahweh. The dark, spiritual principalities were humiliated on the global stage. The pagan cultures looked at the joyful, returning exiles, and they had to admit that the God of Israel had orchestrated a masterclass of redemption. The rescue was so undeniable, that even the enemies of the cosmic order had to acknowledge the majesty of the Creator. The pilgrims echo this confession, turning it into a roaring anthem: "Yes, the Lord has done amazing things for us! What joy!" They look backward at the great salvation of their past, and they allow that memory to fuel their present journey. The second segment is: The Desperate Plea for the Desert Streams Psalm One Hundred Twenty-Six: verse four. Restore our fortunes, Lord, as streams renew the desert. Suddenly, the tone of the psalm shifts dramatically. The intoxicating laughter of the past fades, and the stark, difficult reality of the present moment sets in. The psalmist cries out, "Restore our fortunes, Lord, as streams renew the desert." Why this sudden plea for restoration, if they had already been rescued from exile? Because the ancient believers understood the tension of the "already, but not yet." Yes, Yahweh had miraculously brought them back to the physical city of Jerusalem. The great, initial rescue had occurred. But the world was still broken. The land was still devastated, the enemies were still lurking outside the walls, and the exhausting, grueling work of rebuilding their civilization lay before them. They had been delivered from the nightmare, but they woke up to a harsh, demanding reality. They needed a second wave of divine grace. Therefore, they pray for a restoration that is "as streams renew the desert." Other translations use the term, "like the watercourses in the Negev." The Negev is the arid, unforgiving, southern desert region of Israel. Most of the year, its riverbeds, or wadis, are completely dry, baked hard by the relentless sun. The landscape looks entirely dead, incapable of sustaining life. But when the seasonal rains finally fall in the distant mountains, something miraculous happens. Without any warning, a sudden, violent flash flood comes roaring down the dry riverbeds. The rushing waters carve through the parched earth, instantly bringing explosive, vibrant life to the desert. Dormant seeds sprout, and the barren wasteland is transformed into a blooming oasis overnight. This is exactly what the psalmist is asking God to do in the spiritual realm. He is saying, "Lord, our current circumstances feel like a dry, scorched desert. Our souls are parched. The work of rebuilding is draining our strength. We need You to send a sudden, overwhelming flash flood of Your Holy Spirit. We need the rushing waters of Your grace to carve through our spiritual drought, and bring vibrant, unexpected life back to our community." He is asking the Creator to intervene with the same undeniable power He used to bring them out of Babylon. The third segment is: The Grueling Warfare of the Sower Psalm One Hundred Twenty-Six: verses five and six. Those who plant in tears will harvest with shouts of joy. They weep as they go to plant their seed, but they sing as they return with the harvest. To illustrate the agonizing process of waiting for that restoration, the psalmist turns to the powerful, ancient metaphor of agriculture. "Those who plant in tears will harvest with shouts of joy." To a modern reader who buys their food at a grocery store, planting a garden is often a relaxing, pleasant hobby. But in the ancient Near East, planting was an act of desperate survival, fraught with terror and physical pain. We must view this through the lens of the curse in Genesis Chapter Three. The ground had been cursed, heavily contested by the forces of chaos. The earth yielded thorns, thistles, and hard, unforgiving rock. Imagine a poor, ancient farmer. The winter has been long, and his family's food supply is almost entirely gone. He holds a small, precious sack of grain in his hands. He could feed that grain to his starving children today, and satisfy their...

Build Three Distinct Support Communities Before You Need Them Angel's framework for navigating crisis — professional or personal — is built on three tiers: the emotional inner circle (family, closest friends, real-time updates), the logistics home team (practical help, appointments, WhatsApp coordination), and the extended internet community (prayers, encouragement, distant support). Knowing who belongs in each circle saves energy and deepens each relationship. 2. Learning to Receive Is as Important as Learning to Give When you're in crisis, people want to help — sometimes financially, sometimes practically, sometimes emotionally. Angel's experience is that the resistance to accepting generosity is real and deeply wired. Working through that resistance isn't weakness; it's a survival skill. 3. Deep Empathy for Yourself Comes Before Your Resume The most common job search mistake: starting with the resume. Angel's framework starts with a more foundational question — who are you right now, in this exact moment of your life? Your family situation, your financial runway, your emotional state, your real needs. You cannot build a purposeful job search without that honest baseline. 4. Purpose Is Not the Same as Empathy — But You Can't Get There Without It Deep empathy gives you the foundation. Purpose builds on it — it's your current state, your trajectory, your story. It's the answer to "tell me about yourself" that is honest, specific, and actually compelling. Most people skip empathy and land on a purpose that doesn't feel real — because it isn't. 5. Your Old Resume Is Actively Working Against You The resume you built for the Obama administration — or even five years ago — is not your resume today. Angel's advice: start from scratch with a modern platform that parses your actual capabilities, competencies, and skills. Don't update the old document; replace it entirely. 6. LinkedIn Is a Brand, Not a Job Board Most people treat LinkedIn as a passive repository. Angel treats it as a living brand. The formula: 24 words for role, 36 words for quantified impact, a current professional photo, a Canva-designed header, and active storytelling. Dormant profiles don't get found. Active brands do. 7. The Career Prayer Is the Most Powerful Networking Tool Available A LinkedIn post that blends personal humanity (here's where I am in my life right now), professional context (here's what I built and who I built it with), and authentic future direction (here's what I'm looking for) activates dormant networks faster than any cold outreach campaign. If it reads like AI wrote it, it won't work. If it reads like you, it will. 8. Use AI to Identify Who to Reach Out to First Download your full LinkedIn contact list. Feed it into AI along with your resume, LinkedIn profile, and clarity on what you're looking for. Ask it to identify the 20 most relevant people to reach out to — and why. This turns a vague networking intention into a targeted, prioritized outreach list in minutes. 9. The 1-4/14: Plan for 14 Months and 14 Years Simultaneously Angel's framework for living with a terminal diagnosis is a masterclass in holding two truths at once: get your affairs in order (14 months — directives, will, trustees) and commit to building a life and a legacy (14 years — purpose, impact, the people you're fighting for). Both are necessary. Neither cancels the other out. 10. Showing Up Is Its Own Act of Leadership Angel came to Transform 2026 with Stage 4 pancreatic cancer, a 2-3% five-year survival median, and more energy and generosity than almost anyone else in the building. His presence — and his willingness to share his journey publicly — is itself a form of re-inspiration for anyone going through their own version of impossible. CHAPTERS:  00:00 – Day 3 Opens With Angel Adam opens his first interview of day three with Angel Cruzado — a LinkedIn connection turned in-person meeting — and the conversation immediately goes somewhere real. 02:00 – Living With Stage 4 Pancreatic Cancer Angel shares where he is on his cancer journey, what it's like to navigate a conference when you're fighting for your life, and why he showed up anyway. 04:30 – Building Your Community for the Hard Times How a cancer diagnosis forced Angel to build three distinct support communities: the emotional inner circle, the logistics home team, and the extended internet family. 08:00 – Learning to Accept Generosity One of the most vulnerable moments in the series: Angel talks about the resistance to receiving support — financial and otherwise — and how he learned to accept it as part of surviving. 10:30 – Meet Respiros: Career Transitions with Heart Angel introduces his company — an outplacement and career transition services firm that CHROs hire to re-inspire employees through layoffs, treating them as individuals rather than headcount. 13:00 – The Job Market Right Now: Real Talk An honest assessment of the current talent market: companies have their pick, not everyone is an A player, and struggling candidates need something more than a refreshed resume. 15:30 – Step 1: Deep Empathy for Yourself Before you touch your resume, understand where you truly are as a human being. Your baseline context shapes everything that follows. 18:00 – Step 2: Purpose — Who You Are and Where You're Going The second layer: purpose. Not the same as empathy. It's your current state, your trajectory, and the story that actually means something when someone asks "tell me about yourself." 20:30 – Step 3: Build the Right Resume From Scratch Why your 8-year-old resume is working against you and the case for starting completely fresh with a modern platform. 23:00 – Step 4: LinkedIn as a Living Brand How most people are using LinkedIn wrong — and the precise framework Angel uses: 24 words for role, 36 words for quantified impact. 26:00 – The Career Prayer: Storytelling That Activates Dormant Networks Angel's most memorable concept: a LinkedIn post format that blends personal authenticity, professional context, and genuine humanity — and why it generates real job leads in ways job applications never do. 30:00 – The AI Hack for Network Activation Download your full LinkedIn contacts, feed them into AI with your resume and profile, and ask it to identify the 20 people you should reach out to first — and why. 33:00 – How to Reach Out After Years of Silence The right way to re-engage a dormant contact: not a cold ask, but a genuine, story-led post that gives people a reason to respond on their own terms. 36:00 – The 1-4/14: His Framework for Living Plan for 14 months — medical directives, will, trustees — and simultaneously plan to live for 14 years. Both are necessary. Both are acts of hope. 39:00 – His North Star: His 11-Year-Old's High School Graduation The moment that grounds everything: Angel's goal of making it to his son's graduation when the median 5-year survival rate for Stage 4 pancreatic cancer is 2-3%. 41:00 – Re-Inspiring Others Through His Own Transition Angel closes with the mission: if people who are struggling and hurting can see him still showing up, still building, maybe that re-inspires them to do the same.

Jon Herold and Chris Paul open with a week-later review of the WHCA Dinner shooting, including new video, conflicting stories between the DOJ, Secret Service, and the DC US Attorney, and a federal judge privately admonishing prosecutors for grandstanding in a session that somehow ended up on CNN anyway. From there the show covers the coordinated Ron DeSantis media rehabilitation push and what it signals about the 2028 positioning race. Then comes a sharp breakdown of the revelation that the NSA and Cyber Command's election security group has not been activated heading into the 2026 midterms, which the guys connect to Jon's Devolution Part 9 research and the broader question of whether the midterms are even going to happen. Trump's True Social posts on the filibuster, cognitive exams and "three terms," and the UNO wildcards card get analyzed as potential DevoComms. The show closes on a substantive conversation about Tucker Carlson's antichrist comments, Trump's weaponized reverse psychology communication strategy, and the dead Internet theory and how manufactured online engagement shapes reality.

You broke a 5-day dry fast. Two days later, you've got a cold sore, a shingles patch, or that crushing post-mono fatigue is back. Almost everyone blames the fast. They're looking at the wrong window.The dry fast is the safest period your immune system experiences all year. Autophagy is destroying virus-occupied cells. Ketones starve viruses of the glucose metabolism they need. mTOR (the growth signal viruses hijack to replicate) is shut down. And NK cell activity is climbing. Inside that fasted state, viral replication is mechanically and metabolically near-impossible. That's why most people don't flare during the fast itself.The danger is the refeed. The moment food comes back, mTOR turns back on, autophagy shuts off, your T-cells are still parked in bone marrow, cortisol is still peaking, and T3 is still crashed. For 24 to 72 hours your antiviral defences are at zero — and any virus that survived the fast now has an open road to refill the reservoirs the fast just cleared. Worse, it can spread to nerve cells it never previously occupied.In this video I break down:— Why the dry fast creates a near-impenetrable antiviral state (4 mechanisms)— Why the refeed is the highest-risk window in the entire protocol (5 mechanisms)— Why a botched refeed leaves chronically ill patients MORE infected than they started— The bridge strategy: dry fast → water fast → controlled refeed with antivirals already on board— The full pharmacological stack: T3, L-lysine, monolaurin, acyclovir, ivermectin— Early warning signs of reactivation in the refeed window (and what to do)— Why this gets dramatically easier from cycle 3 onward— The T3 off-ramp as the second high-risk window most people missThis isn't a reason to fear fasting. It's the map of when the danger window opens and how to close it before food can.

Ally is popping buttons and also trying to get her friends to switch teams.

Bound by chance and the intimacy of therapy, an old warrior and a fledgling psychiatrist test each other's true north. Miko, the precocious son of a Greek fisherman, has weathered an indecisive path to adulthood in medicine and psychiatry. . . or has he? Dormant in his soul is a muse for writing and a smoldering guilt of abandoning his father. His training trajectory finds him in Tulsa, USA, of all places, where a 2 a.m. hospital admission, the aging, drunk, and potentially violent Vietnam veteran AJ becomes the young physician's patient. A metaphysical quirk awaits them. Unwitting confidants in the quest to understand what each is missing, the two trade insights best borne from meeting the other where he is. AJ is a prisoner of the exhilarating echoes of a confusing war; Miko suppresses his own psychological turmoil while exposing that of others. A chance meeting of their wives leads to a bond kept hidden under norms of confidentiality. Each woman finds something of themselves in the other and the moxie to withstand battles in their own marriages, on their own terms. Why AJ was brought to the hospital by the police that night pits a sense of duty against self-destruction. Why was there but a single round in his Luger that night? In Passages, the author takes aim at our enigmatic humanity. Each of us is the hero in his or her own life, a contrast of magnificence and flaws, navigating the complexity of principles and barriers as best one can.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

In today's episode I reconnect with longtime friend Meghan Fife, founder of B-Side Consulting and the Instagram persona "Mystic Meghan." Meghan and I met while we were both in the real estate industry (Meghan still has a specialty working with seniors in Dallas). We didn't talk much about real estate today. Instead we explored future-oriented initiatives, yoga, Meghan's values of joy, gratitude, peace, and love, and how that mindset and worldview fits with my recent study of the fourth turning, where we find ourselves today. Meghan shared her personal growth journey and how she has developed a more authentic worldview focused on respect, kindness, and finding common ground with others. She emphasized the importance of being present in the moment with whoever she is with, whether it's family, friends, or colleagues. We talked about several books, including Dr. David Hawkins' works "Power vs. Force" and "Letting Go," which we both have studied. You can find more about the Map of Consciousness by searching any browser. I shared a quote by Patanjali, the father of yoga. Here is that quote:  "When you are inspired by some great purpose, some extraordinary project, all your thoughts break their bonds. Your mind transcends limitations, your consciousness expands in every direction, and you find yourself in a new, great and wonderful world. Dormant forces, faculties and talents become alive, and you discover yourself to be a greater person by far than you ever dreamed yourself to be." If you are interested in Meghan's Facebook post that inspired my reaching out to her, it was her Facebook post from March 11.  Meghan can be reached at MegFife@gmail.com, or Mystic.Meghan on Instagram.

The series on the houses wouldn't have felt complete without one last fairytale. In this, the 40th and last episode of the series, we explore the German tale of Dornröschen, which loosely translates to 'the little rose inside the thorns'. It begins with a talking frog who crawls out of the water to deliver a prophecy to the bathing queen. And it takes us into those places in ourselves that feel dormant. We feel that these parts have such great potential in our lives, but they remain fast asleep. Until...Well, that's the thing. The story takes us into the element of timing, of transits, of progressions, of gestation and of waiting until that which slumbers is ready to arouse. I'm joined in a very synchronous way by Milena Kadziela, a fellow astrologer and psychotherapist. She sends a transmission from London, in the middle of the night, on the Libra Full Moon. The moon was at 12°, which is the 13th degree.Milena, a listener to the show, felt that the one element that was missing in the series was that of the intercepted house. It happens that she uses this very story, Briar Rose, to speak to those hard to access parts of the chart. And so, she joined us for a late cameo in the episode to drop her night wisdom on us all. If you'd like to find out more about Milena's work you can find her here. You can read the story itself here.The image for the podcast is again from Artist and Patron, Lucy Dodd.

Parler en dormant peut faire sourire… ou inquiéter. Pourtant, la somniloquie est un phénomène très courant. On estime que près de 65 % des personnes ont déjà parlé en dormant au moins une fois dans leur vie. Chez les enfants, c'est encore plus fréquent : un enfant sur deux présente des épisodes de somniloquie, souvent sans que cela ait la moindre conséquence.Mais que se passe-t-il réellement dans le cerveau quand quelqu'un parle en dormant ?La somniloquie est un parasomnie, c'est-à-dire un trouble du comportement survenant pendant le sommeil. Elle peut apparaître à n'importe quel stade du sommeil, mais pas pour les mêmes raisons.Pendant le sommeil lent léger, les paroles sont souvent simples, des mots isolés ou de courtes phrases. En revanche, lors du sommeil paradoxal, celui des rêves intenses, le discours peut devenir plus long, émotionnel, parfois même argumenté.Normalement, durant le sommeil paradoxal, notre cerveau active un mécanisme de sécurité appelé atonie musculaire. Ce mécanisme empêche le corps de bouger pendant que l'on rêve. Chez les personnes somniloques, cette inhibition n'est pas toujours complète, notamment au niveau des muscles de la parole. Résultat : certaines parties du rêve « débordent » dans le monde réel.Contrairement à une idée reçue, parler en dormant n'est pas forcément lié à un trouble psychologique. Dans la grande majorité des cas, la somniloquie est bénigne. Elle est cependant favorisée par certains facteurs bien identifiés :– le stress et l'anxiété– la privation de sommeil– la fièvre– la consommation d'alcool ou de certains médicaments– et parfois une prédisposition génétiqueLes études montrent par exemple que les personnes soumises à un stress chronique présentent jusqu'à 30 % d'épisodes supplémentaires de comportements nocturnes inhabituels, dont la somniloquie.Faut-il s'inquiéter ?Dans l'immense majorité des cas, non. La somniloquie n'altère pas la qualité du sommeil et n'a pas d'impact sur la santé. Elle devient un sujet médical uniquement si elle s'accompagne d'autres symptômes : somnambulisme fréquent, réveils violents, fatigue diurne importante ou troubles du comportement nocturne.Peut-on l'empêcher ?Il n'existe pas de traitement spécifique. En revanche, améliorer l'hygiène du sommeil réduit significativement la fréquence des épisodes : heures de coucher régulières, diminution de l'alcool, gestion du stress et sommeil suffisant — environ 7 à 9 heures par nuit chez l'adulte.En résumé, parler en dormant est le signe d'un cerveau qui rêve… un peu trop fort. Un phénomène fascinant, généralement sans danger, qui rappelle que même endormé, notre cerveau reste incroyablement actif. Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.

Bound by chance and the intimacy of therapy, an old warrior and a fledgling psychiatrist test each other's true north. Miko, the precocious son of a Greek fisherman, has weathered an indecisive path to adulthood in medicine and psychiatry. . . or has he? Dormant in his soul is a muse for writing and a smoldering guilt of abandoning his father. His training trajectory finds him in Tulsa, USA, of all places, where a 2 a.m. hospital admission, the aging, drunk, and potentially violent Vietnam veteran AJ becomes the young physician's patient. A metaphysical quirk awaits them. Unwitting confidants in the quest to understand what each is missing, the two trade insights best borne from meeting the other where he is. AJ is a prisoner of the exhilarating echoes of a confusing war; Miko suppresses his own psychological turmoil while exposing that of others. A chance meeting of their wives leads to a bond kept hidden under norms of confidentiality. Each woman finds something of themselves in the other and the moxie to withstand battles in their own marriages, on their own terms. Why AJ was brought to the hospital by the police that night pits a sense of duty against self-destruction. Why was there but a single round in his Luger that night? In Passages, the author takes aim at our enigmatic humanity. Each of us is the hero in his or her own life, a contrast of magnificence and flaws, navigating the complexity of principles and barriers as best one can.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-like-it-s-live--4113802/support.

Did you know there’s nearly $2.1 trillion in forgotten 401(k) and retirement accounts scattered across the United States? On this episode of The Financial Hour of The Tom Dupree Show, hosts Tom Dupree, Mike Johnson, and James Dupree tackle what they call America’s abandoned 401(k) crisis — and lay out a clear path for recovering lost retirement savings before it’s too late. With the average American staying at an employer for just 3.9 years, it’s no surprise that old 401(k) accounts get left behind. But those forgotten dollars represent real retirement income that could be working harder for you right now. Whether you’re in your thirties with scattered accounts or approaching retirement with assets spread across multiple former employers, the team at Dupree Financial Group explains why consolidating your retirement accounts into a personalized investment management strategy could be one of the most important financial decisions you make. Why Abandoned 401(k) Accounts Are Costing You More Than You Think The problem goes deeper than simply losing track of an old account. As Mike Johnson explained during the episode, there are two distinct sides to this crisis. The first is accounts that people genuinely forget about — they leave a job, move to a new city, and a 401(k) with a few thousand dollars slips through the cracks. The second, and far more common scenario, is when people know they have old accounts scattered around but never get around to consolidating them. “You have all these various pieces scattered around. You haven’t forgotten about them — they’ve just been sitting there. And there’s really no clear plan, no management, anything like that.” — Mike Johnson The costs of inaction add up quickly. Old employer plans charge administration fees and internal fund expenses that steadily eat away at your balance. Without active management, your investments may have been moved to money market funds or stable value options without your knowledge — meaning you’ve potentially lost years of compounding growth. Tom Dupree put it simply: “Money that’s together is better managed.” The Hidden Costs of Scattered Retirement Accounts Beyond the obvious risk of forgetting an account entirely, keeping retirement savings spread across multiple former employers creates a series of compounding problems. Fees erode your balance. Plan administration costs and internal fund fees are deducted from accounts whether you’re contributing or not. Over time, a dormant account can lose significant value to expenses alone. Opportunity cost is real. An old 401(k) sitting in a bond fund or money market account for 20 years has missed potentially decades of growth. As Mike Johnson noted: “How much did you leave on the table by just leaving it on autopilot?” Logistics become a nightmare at retirement. Multiple accounts mean multiple logins, multiple statements, and multiple required minimum distributions to calculate and manage once you reach age 73. No cohesive investment strategy. Without consolidation, there’s no way to ensure your overall allocation reflects where you are in life — whether that’s aggressive growth in your thirties or income-focused positioning as you approach retirement. Plan changes happen without you. Third-party administrators regularly swap out fund options within employer plans. If you’re not watching, your money may end up in an investment that no longer fits your goals. How to Find Your Lost 401(k) Accounts If you think you may have retirement money sitting somewhere you’ve forgotten about, there are several ways to track it down. Mike Johnson walked listeners through the key resources available. Contact your former employer. This is the most direct route. Many companies can tell you whether you still have a balance in their retirement plan and connect you with the plan administrator. Use the federal government’s search tool. In 2024, the Department of Labor launched lostfound.dol.gov, a searchable database specifically for private, non-governmental employer plans. You can search by Social Security number to locate plans connected to your work history. Check state unclaimed property databases. Some abandoned retirement assets may have been turned over to your state’s unclaimed property division, which maintains searchable records. The statistic is striking: 54% of savers don’t know where their old 401k is, and 61% don’t know their login credentials. If that sounds familiar, you’re far from alone — and the solution is more straightforward than most people realize. Your Four Options for an Old 401(k) (And Which One Actually Makes Sense) Once you’ve located an old retirement account, you have four choices. Mike Johnson broke them down clearly during the episode. Option 1: Leave it where it is. This is the easiest path — and almost always the worst one. The account sits unmanaged, accumulating fees with no investment strategy behind it. As Mike put it, this makes sense “0.00001% of the time.” Option 2: Roll it into your new employer’s 401(k). Better than leaving it behind, but still limiting. Most employer plans offer only 20 to 30 investment options, with many being target-date or broad index funds that may not fit your specific situation. Option 3: Cash it out. If you’re under 59½, you’ll face penalties and taxes. Even above that age, cashing out means losing the tax-advantaged compounding that makes retirement accounts so powerful. This should generally be a last resort. Option 4: Roll it into a professionally managed IRA. This is the approach the Dupree Financial Group team recommends for most people. An IRA gives you access to individual securities, ETFs, mutual funds, and a fully customized investment philosophy tailored to your goals and timeline. There are no tax consequences for a direct rollover, and you gain the ability to build a cohesive plan across all your retirement assets. The Power of Roth Conversions for Younger Savers One of the episode’s most actionable takeaways was Mike Johnson’s advice for younger workers with small, stranded 401(k) accounts. “If you’re in your twenties or thirties and you have some small legacy 401(k) stranded accounts, you can move that to an IRA and it would probably make sense to convert that to a Roth while you’re in a lower tax bracket.” — Mike Johnson The math is compelling. Pay a small tax bill now on a relatively modest balance, and that money compounds tax-free for the next 30 or more years. The team also discussed how Roth conversions were particularly powerful during the 2008–2009 financial crisis, when account values were depressed — converting low balances meant paying taxes on less and then watching all the recovery growth accumulate tax-free. For those closer to retirement, gradual Roth conversions can still make sense. The strategy involves filling up your current tax bracket with conversions each year, reducing future required minimum distributions and creating tax-free income in retirement. Tools like Morningstar’s retirement planning resources can help you model how different conversion amounts affect your long-term tax picture. In-Service Rollovers: A Strategy for Workers Over 59½ If you’re still working but have reached age 59½, you may have an option many people don’t know about: the in-service rollover. Most employer plans allow participants who are 59½ or older to move existing assets out of the 401(k) and into an IRA — while continuing to make contributions and collect any employer match in the plan. This means you can begin building an income-focused portfolio years before you actually retire. “At 59 and a half, you roll it to an IRA and then you’re preparing for retirement… you get that income stream rolling so that machine is now working.” — Mike Johnson The Dupree Financial Group team structures these rollovers around their dividend-focused investment approach, building portfolios of quality companies that generate consistent income. By the time you retire, the transition is seamless — your portfolio is already generating dividends, your relationship with your advisor is established, and linking your IRA to your checking account for retirement income is as simple as flipping a switch. Why Compounding Favors Those Who Start Now James Dupree brought a generational perspective to the conversation, noting that while younger workers may understand the concept of compounding better than previous generations, many still haven’t taken action on it. Tom Dupree shared a perspective from his 47 years in the investment business: “Everybody who’s got a large account — it started with a small one. That’s how it works.” The team emphasized that the size of your starting balance matters far less than getting that money working for you under professional management. A few thousand dollars left in an old 401(k), properly invested and compounded over 20 or 30 years, could grow into a meaningful piece of your retirement income. James illustrated the point with a personal example — calculating how much his girlfriend could accumulate by investing the daily savings from making espresso at home instead of buying Starbucks. The numbers were eye-opening, and the principle applies directly to abandoned retirement accounts sitting idle. Key Takeaways From This Episode Nearly $2.1 trillion in retirement savings is sitting in forgotten or unmanaged accounts across the U.S. Dormant 401(k) accounts lose value through hidden fees, opportunity costs, and unmonitored investment changes. The federal government’s lostfound.dol.gov database can help you locate old employer plans. Rolling old 401(k) accounts into a professionally managed IRA provides more investment options, lower fees, and a cohesive retirement strategy. Roth conversions on small, stranded accounts can be especially powerful for younger workers in lower tax brackets. In-service rollovers at age 59½ let you begin building retirement income while still working and collecting your employer match. Consolidating scattered retirement assets into one managed portfolio allows for coordinated tax planning, income generation, and a smoother transition into retirement. Frequently Asked Questions How do I find out if I have an old 401(k) from a previous job? Start by contacting former employers directly. You can also search the Department of Labor’s database at lostfound.dol.gov, which was launched in 2024 specifically for locating private employer retirement plans. State unclaimed property databases are another resource worth checking. Is there a tax penalty for rolling over a 401k to an IRA? No. A direct rollover from a pre-tax 401(k) to a traditional IRA has no tax consequences. Similarly, Roth 401(k) assets can roll to a Roth IRA without triggering taxes. The key is ensuring the rollover is done directly — trustee to trustee — rather than taking a distribution and redepositing. The IRS rollover chart outlines exactly which account types can transfer into which. What is an in-service rollover? An in-service rollover allows employees who are 59½ or older to transfer assets from their current employer’s 401(k) into an IRA while still working and contributing to the plan. This lets you begin building a managed retirement portfolio before you actually retire. Why shouldn’t I just leave my old 401(k) where it is? Dormant accounts accumulate plan administration fees and internal fund costs without any active management. Investment options may change without your knowledge, and the money isn’t aligned with your current financial goals or retirement timeline. What’s the difference between a 401(k) and an IRA for investment options? A 401(k) typically offers 20 to 30 investment choices selected by your employer’s plan administrator, usually mutual funds and target-date funds. An IRA gives you access to individual stocks, bonds, ETFs, mutual funds, and other securities — allowing for a fully customized investment strategy. Should I convert my old 401(k) to a Roth IRA? It depends on your current tax bracket versus your expected bracket in retirement. If you’re in a lower bracket now — especially if you’re younger — converting to a Roth allows all future growth to compound tax-free.

Cem Karsan sits down with Ben Hunt, founder of Epsilon Theory, to explore how narratives shape markets, politics, and decision making itself. Drawing on decades of experience across academia, hedge funds, and applied AI, Ben explains why stories, not data, increasingly drive outcomes in modern markets. The conversation spans unstructured data, inference, common knowledge, and the mechanics of narrative momentum. Together, they examine consumer expectations, inflation silence, geopolitical signaling, and the slow shift away from US dominance. What emerges is a framework for understanding markets as reflexive systems, where perception often matters more than reality.-----50 YEARS OF TREND FOLLOWING BOOK AND BEHIND-THE-SCENES VIDEO FOR ACCREDITED INVESTORS - CLICK HERE-----Follow Niels on Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube or via the TTU website.IT's TRUE ? – most CIO's read 50+ books each year – get your FREE copy of the Ultimate Guide to the Best Investment Books ever written here.And you can get a free copy of my latest book “Ten Reasons to Add Trend Following to Your Portfolio” here.Learn more about the Trend Barometer here.Send your questions to info@toptradersunplugged.comAnd please share this episode with a like-minded friend and leave an honest Rating & Review on iTunes or Spotify so more people can discover the podcast.Follow Cem on Twitter.Episode TimeStamps: 00:00 - Introduction to U Got Options and the trading floor setting02:18 - Ben Hunt's background and Epsilon Theory origins04:11 - Markets as the ultimate multiplayer game06:15 - Inference, unstructured data, and narrative analysis08:18 - Why sentiment and word counts miss the real signal11:16 - Mapping meaning and truthy stories15:00 - LLMs as operating systems, not oracles18:01 - Giving money back and when models stop working21:16 - Applying narrative tools beyond markets24:10 - Consumer weakness versus bullish expectations30:43 - Inflation, recession, and why markets do not care33:29 - Dormant stories and volatility discovery34:26 -

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20251218dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion The desert and the parched land will be glad; the wilderness will rejoice and blossom. Like the crocus, it will burst into bloom; it will rejoice greatly and shout for joy. The glory of Lebanon will be given to it, the splendor of Carmel and Sharon; they will see the glory of the Lord, the splendor of our God. Isaiah 35:1-2 God Makes the Desert Bloom In northern Chile, along the Pacific coast, lies one of the driest places on earth. Known as the Atacama, it sometimes goes decades without measurable rainfall. It’s so barren that NASA uses it to simulate conditions on Mars. But in rare years, the Atacama Desert receives a few inches of rain, like it did a few months ago. Within days, something astonishing happens. Dormant seeds that have been buried in the dust for years suddenly burst into life. The desert floor becomes carpeted with a palette of pink, purple, yellow, and white. The transformation is so dramatic that satellites can detect the color change from space. That’s the picture Isaiah gives us. Maybe your life feels a little like that dry ground right now. Life feels empty, brittle, and you’re waiting for something to change. Isaiah reminds us that God hasn’t forgotten how to make things bloom. His Word and his Spirit still bring renewal, transformation, and life. God rains down his grace, forgiveness, and peace on dry and weary hearts. God is able to transform the dry and the forsaken into vibrant life. God turns death into life. Jesus Christ went from barren death and three days later to life and immortality. He broke through the grave as the firstfruits from the dead. He endured the scathing punishment for your sin. He bore the withering wrath you deserved. He did all this so that God’s glory might be brought to full flower. He did it so that you, too, can go from death to life. Prayer: Dear God, send your rain on the dry places in my life. Let your grace soak into the cracks of my heart. Remind me that your Son, Jesus, was parched so that I can spend an eternity in paradise with you. Amen. Daily Devotions is brought to you by WELS.

In this episode of Blazin' Grazin' and Other Wild Things, we hear from Kayla Moss, Extension Assistant at Oklahoma State University, about her groundbreaking research in Oklahoma.  Moss shares how she tackled the invasive sericea lespedeza using a combination of fire, herbicide, and grazing. She discusses how growing-season burns, when followed by a well-timed herbicide application, delivered the most effective long-term control - reducing sericea cover from 35% to under 1%. The episode also explores the unexpected return of native legumes after treatment, the resilience of sericea seedbanks, and the practical trade-offs producers face when balancing cattle gains with ecosystem health.  Supported by co-hosts Dr. Laura Goodman, Dr. Mark Turner, and John Weir, this conversation is full of science-backed strategies, real-world challenges, and relatable advice for any land manager facing invasive species. Key Takeaways Sericea lespedeza is highly invasive, with seedbanks that can persist for decades. Growing-season fire followed by herbicide application a year later showed the most effective control. Dormant-season fire alone may increase sericea cover. Herbicide applied post-burn can reduce seed production significantly. Cattle weight gains were not negatively affected by growing-season burns. Native legumes like partridge pea and slender lespedeza can repopulate treated areas. Seed germination of sericea is extremely tough, requiring even sulfuric acid in lab settings. The cost of metsulfuron methyl herbicide is under $4 per acre. Spot spraying and drone tech may offer future precision control options. Integrated management is more practical and effective than standalone treatments.
