Send me a Text Message!In this episode, Mike breaks open the truth behind emotional storage, nervous system release, and the real work of personal freedom: Shadow Work. This isn't about coping. It's about healing the unprocessed emotions that are still running your life from the inside. If you're ready to stop reacting, stop holding it all in, and start releasing what's not yours to carry — this episode is your how.Key TakeawaysShadow Work Is About Releasing What's Stored, Not What's New Most emotions aren't new — they're old wounds triggered again. Shadow work clears the internal pressure.You Can't Think Your Way Out of Stored Emotion You have to feel it. Amplify it. Breathe through it. And release it with presence.The Nervous System Stores Emotional Residue Unprocessed experiences live in the body until they're moved through consciously.The Drill Method Is the Tool Drop into the body. Recognize. Inquire. Listen. Let go. It works because it goes beyond mindset.Letting Go of Low-Level Energy Raises Your Reality Peace, power, and overflow are on the other side of clearing shame, guilt, fear, and grief.Notable Quotes“Shadow work will help you do that. You put yourself into the experience that you're trying to avoid. You visualize the experience. You feel the experience. And then as you feel and amplify, you begin to breathe and release all the emotion that you've just dredged up.”“Emotion is like an orange and a knife. The knife doesn't create the juice. The knife just reveals it.”“You don't reach for the higher levels. You let go of the lower levels.”“You just allow yourself to go deeper into it and explore and allow yourself to let it go.”“Every single time I do shadow work, something amazing happens.”Call to Action

Send us a textWhat if one of the most devastating, life-altering experiences isn't visible from the outside but silently shatters someone's identity, relationships, and sense of control?As a Harvard-trained fertility specialist, Gabriela Rosa, has spent over 20 years working with individuals and couples whose lives were flipped upside down by the heartbreak of not being able to conceive. She's walked beside thousands through the silent trauma of repeated loss, the mental health fallout of failed attempts, the breakdown of marriages, and the overwhelming isolation that comes when your body doesn't do what it's “supposed to.”The pain is real - even though the world often dismisses it. And the recovery? It requires an entirely new way of relating to your body, your dreams, and your definition of self-worth.Gabriela comes with the collective stories of the people she's helped through their darkest, most vulnerable moments. She believes that behind every fertility challenge is a human experience of trauma, and she has powerful insight into what healing looks like when life doesn't go as planned.

What is consciousness actually doing?In this episode of Mind-Body Solution, neuroscientist and theorist Dr Adam Safron joins Dr Tevin Naidu to explore one of the most ambitious frameworks in contemporary consciousness science - Integrated World Modeling Theory (IWMT).IWMT unites leading theories like Integrated Information Theory (IIT), Global Workspace Theory (GWT), and the Free Energy Principle (FEP) into one powerful vision: that consciousness is the brain's model of its own embodied relationship to the world.Together, they examine:- How consciousness might function as a control system for adaptive intelligence- Why embodiment and emotion are essential to conscious experience- Whether consciousness is truly causal, and how this reframes free will- How psychedelics, meditation, and altered states reveal the structure of the self-model- And what IWMT tells us about AI, evolution, and the universe itself Bridging neuroscience, philosophy, and cybernetics, this conversation invites you to rethink what it means to be aware.TIMESTAMPS:(00:00) – Introduction (02:15) – Why Consciousness Matters in the Universe(05:24) – What Is Integrated World Modeling Theory (IWMT)?(09:03) – Modeling the Self, Modeling the World(12:12) – Consciousness as Embodied Simulation(16:38) – Is Consciousness Causal?(20:25) – Agency and the Active Inference Brain(24:30) – Free Energy & Free Will(29:17) – The Hierarchy of Minds(34:42) – From Computation to Experience(39:28) – Why Consciousness Defies Reduction(43:05) – The Psychedelic Brain and World Modeling(47:56) – The Role of Emotion in Consciousness(52:12) – Consciousness and Causation: The Recursive Loop(57:20) – Evolution, Embodiment & the Origins of Mind(1:02:00) – Artificial Minds & Synthetic Consciousness(1:07:25) – The Cybernetic Universe Hypothesis(1:12:38) – Psychedelics & AI(1:24:45) – Engineering Artificial Consciousness(1:27:10) – Toward an Integrated, Compassionate Understanding of Mind(1:44:00) – ConclusionEPISODE LINKS:- Adam's Website: https://www.adamsafron.com/- Adam's X: https://twitter.com/adamsafron- Adam's Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@AdamSafron/- Adam's Publications: https://scholar.google.com/citations?user=dZOoilgAAAAJ&hl=enCONNECT:- Website: https://mindbodysolution.org - YouTube: https://youtube.com/@MindBodySolution- Podcast: https://creators.spotify.com/pod/show/mindbodysolution- Twitter: https://twitter.com/drtevinnaidu- Facebook: https://facebook.com/drtevinnaidu - Instagram: https://instagram.com/drtevinnaidu- LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/drtevinnaidu- Website: https://tevinnaidu.com=============================Disclaimer: The information provided on this channel is for educational purposes only.

What do you do when your kid is scared?Tell him not to be scared?What do you do when you're mad?Yell at the person?Tell yourself you shouldn't feel that way?The problem with this kind of response is that it doesn't let the emotion move through and out of you.Emotion means to move out.Step 1 in tending to emotions is to acknowledge it's there, and that it has a good reason to be there.Do this with yourself and others and your relationships will improve immediately.Step 2 is to let the emotion move you.Learn more in today's episode.Listen on the Strong Men Strong Marriages Podcast. https://strongmenstrongmarriages.buzzsprout.com/Watch on YouTube here.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QpHZWdoEVv0Dr. Mike P.S.

If you want to connect and influence others authentically, you need to understand the part of the brain that makes every decision. In this episode, I sit down with Tim Ash, bestselling author of Unleash Your Primal Brain and co-author of Primal Dating, to explore how our primal brain still runs the show in business, marketing, and leadership today.Tim shares why emotion, not logic, drives every choice we make, and how this understanding can help us lead, market, and communicate with more empathy and purpose. We also talk about culture, belonging, and the importance of purpose as a compass for every decision.Key Takeaways:Emotion always wins. Every decision starts with feeling; logic only justifies it later.Inaction is the brain's default. To move people, create emotional urgency, not pressure.Culture is built through connection. True culture happens in shared challenges and genuine modeling.Purpose guides direction. Having a bigger-than-you purpose clarifies your yeses and nos.Relationships are everything. We are wired to bond through shared experiences, not transactions.Tim's thoughtful, science-based approach to influence reminds us that connection begins where emotion lives. Understanding the brain helps us build trust in ways that are natural, ethical, and deeply human.Connect with Tim:Website: timash.comLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/timashIn appreciation for being here, I have some gifts for you:A LinkedIn Checklist for setting up your fully optimized Profile:An opportunity to test drive the Follow Up system I recommend by checking this presentation page - you won't regret it.

Dans un monde où tout va trop vite, où chaque minute doit être rentabilisée, le droit au repos semble presque subversif. Pourtant, se reposer n'est pas une faiblesse : c'est un acte de leadership. Dans cet épisode du podcast Sensées, nous explorons pourquoi et comment ralentir devient aujourd'hui un levier essentiel pour le bien-être au travail, la santé mentale et la performance durable des femmes leaders.À travers des exemples concrets et une réflexion puissante, Jenny Chammas, mastercoach certifiée, vous montre que le droit au repos n'est pas une récompense accordée “quand tout est fini”, mais une condition nécessaire à votre équilibre et à votre impact. Car sans repos, la fatigue mentale s'installe, la clarté s'érode et le risque d'épuisement professionnel augmente.Ce que vous saurez faire après écoute :– Identifier les six raisons invisibles qui vous empêchent de vraiment vous reposer.– Reconnaître les signaux physiques et émotionnels de la fatigue mentale avant qu'ils ne s'aggravent.– Apprendre à ralentir sans culpabilité pour préserver votre énergie.– Redéfinir la réussite en intégrant le bien-être au travail comme pilier de votre leadership.– Mettre en place des micro-actions simples pour prendre soin de vous au quotidien.Dans un environnement où la performance est souvent confondue avec la productivité, cet épisode vous invite à revisiter vos croyances sur le repos et à poser un regard neuf sur votre rapport à l'action. Le droit au repos est un acte de puissance : il vous reconnecte à votre corps, à vos limites et à ce qui compte vraiment. Il vous permet de prendre soin de vous tout en nourrissant votre ambition de manière durable.Écoutez l'épisode et (re)découvrez la force du repos : celle qui nourrit votre lucidité, votre créativité et votre impact.

My guest is Dr. Jennifer Groh, PhD, professor of psychology and neuroscience at Duke University. She explains how our brain encodes sights and sounds and integrates them so we can navigate and understand the world around us. She explains what thoughts really are and how what you focus on determines your thoughts, not just in that moment but your future thoughts too. We discuss this in the context of how to improve your level of focus and happiness and how to complete tasks and task-switch more effectively. We also discuss how you can rewire the neural circuits that underlie your default patterns of thinking and attention.

From the GOP's lack of fight to the Left's ideological takeover, this episode exposes what these election results reveal about America's political decay and what it means for the future. Episode Highlights: Democrats dominate in NYC, NJ, and VA  Why apathy and surrender have become the GOP's biggest weaknesses, and the warning signs for the Republican Party How progressives have hijacked the Democratic Party and what it means for America's future as New York City begins to embark on its socialist experiment

Send us a textHow hunger, hormones, and brain wiring make animals switch between parenting and aggression.Episode Summary: Dr. Johannes Kohl explains instinctive behaviors in mice, focusing on how hunger and estrous cycle hormones interact in the hypothalamus to toggle between parental care and pup-directed aggression in virgin females; he also details how pregnancy hormones rewire the medial preoptic area for robust maternal behavior before birth, revealing multi-timescale neural integration of internal states.About the guest: Jonny Kohl, PhD is a group leader at the Francis Crick Institute in London, heading the State-Dependent Neural Processing Lab.Discussion Points:Instincts are pre-wired, robust yet modifiable by experience and states like hunger.AGRP “hunger neurons” in the hypothalamus regulate hunger state and respond to environmental cues related to food.Hunger regulates parental care neurons in medial preoptic area (MPOA) via inhibitory peptides.Estrous cycle (4-5 days) in mice comes with fluctuations in estradiol & progesterone; their ratio, not absolute levels, gates aggression probability.Hormone ratio sensed in MPOA neurons via nuclear receptors altering gene expression of HCN ion channels, changing excitability.Pregnancy (20 days) boosts parental circuits in MPOA via hormone surges before pregnancy ends, enabling instant care at birth.Hormone fluctuations enable adult brain plasticity.Humans disrupt natural cycles (e.g., hormonal contraceptives, GLP-1 drugs) that have broad, poorly understood brain effects.Reference Paper:Study: Integration of hunger and hormonal state gates infant-directed aggressionRelated Episode:M&M 89: Neuroscience of Aggression, Sex, Behavior, Hormones, Emotion & Consciousness | David Anderson*Not medical advice.Support the showAffiliates: Seed Oil Scout: Find restaurants with seed oil-free options, scan food products to see what they're hiding, with this easy-to-use mobile app. KetoCitra—Ketone body BHB + electrolytes formulated for kidney health.

What strange thing happens when a neuron is left alone? Are there ways to moderate stress and anxiety, and even channel them into productive and helpful signals there to assist you in making good decisions? How can you develop initiative, and what has to change in today's education landscape to accomplish this? Angus Fletcher is a Professor of Story Science at Project Narrative of Ohio State University. He also teaches screenwriting and is a screenwriter, as well as the author of several books including Primal Intelligence: You Are Smarter Than You Know, Storythinking: The New Science of Narrative Intelligence, and Wonderworks: The 25 Most Powerful Inventions in the History of Literature.Greg and Angus discuss the intersection of story science and philosophy, emphasizing the importance of mythos and narrative thinking as opposed to logos, the purely logical, data-driven approaches in areas like decision-making and leadership. Angus outlines how neurophysiology and the brain's natural restlessness contribute to human intelligence and explores the practical applications of narrative cognition in fields ranging from military operations to education and business. He highlights the role of literature in developing imagination, perspective, and emotional intelligence, arguing for its integration into educational systems and other training programs to cultivate better leaders, thinkers, and problem-solvers.*unSILOed Podcast is produced by University FM.*Episode Quotes:Why fear and anger are the two most powerful emotions41:50: I worked a long time with operators on this, and we particularly worked on fear and anger because those are our two most powerful emotions. Those are our fight-or-flight responses. Fear is flight, and anger is fight. And you know what is going on there? Well, what is going on there is your brain has a bias to action. Your brain always wants to be doing something. The moment that your brain is sitting still, it feels extremely vulnerable, so it always wants to have a plan. And when your brain experiences a severe threat and it realizes this threat is so new, so different, that it does not have a plan that it has confidence in, it does not know what to do here—that is when your brain starts to feel scared. That is when you feel fear. So the question is, why is fear the emotion that your brain evolved? Why did it not evolve some other emotion, like curiosity or whatever? And the answer is just because fear makes you incredibly susceptible to outside influence. The more scared you are, the smarter other people's suggestions sound.Emotion is the smartest thing in your brain41:06: Emotion is the smartest thing in your brain. If you're not using your emotions, you're severely limiting your intelligence. And the reason that we know emotion is the smartest thing in the brain is it's the oldest form of intelligence in the brain, so it's been keeping you alive for hundreds of millions of years.Stories help us imagine alternatives13:11: When you tell someone a story effectively, it allows them to imagine themselves in that position. And then what they do in that position is they imagine, what could I do? And when that's done effectively, what it allows them to do is imagine alternatives—not just alternatives from what they themselves are doing in their own lives, but alternatives to what the individuals did in that situation.Why modern life produces so much anxiety46:21: Why is it that so many people are experiencing over-anxiety in our modern world? Well, the first thing is that too many people spend their time inside these artificially stable environments where they're just not used to anything being unstable. If you spend all your time in the suburbs, and bananas are always there, even in the middle of the winter when you go to the supermarket and the whatnot, you know, then you're not ever coping or having to engage with even a mild amount of instability or volatility. So the moment you encounter any of it, you immediately freak out and think that something must be wrong.Show Links:Recommended Resources:MythosLogosDaniel KahnemanDual Process TheoryI. A.

Bienvenue sur Sensées, le format audio de ma newsletter hebdomadaire.Chaque semaine, je vous partage avec authenticité des réflexions sur le leadership féminin, le bien-être au travail et la prévention du burn-out, pour avancer avec confiance et sérénité.Cette semaine : Burn-out féminin – ces freins invisibles qui vous épuisent à petit feu.Je connais peu de femmes leaders qui n'ont pas, un jour, frôlé la ligne rouge.Dans mes accompagnements, je retrouve les mêmes schémas : perfectionnisme, peur de décevoir, hyper-responsabilité et culpabilité de ralentir.Ces mécanismes, profondément ancrés, mènent peu à peu à l'épuisement professionnel.À travers les histoires de Caroline, Sophie, Amel et Julia, je décrypte comment ces dynamiques s'installent, pourquoi elles sont si difficiles à repérer et surtout, comment les désamorcer avant qu'il ne soit trop tard.Vous comprendrez pourquoi le problème n'est pas vous, mais le système — celui qui valorise la performance, la disponibilité et le don de soi, mais oublie la santé mentale et la joie.Un épisode essentiel pour toutes celles qui se reconnaissent dans la fatigue émotionnelle, la charge mentale, ou le besoin de tout gérer.Parce qu'éviter le burn-out, ce n'est pas “tenir bon” : c'est apprendre à se préserver, à poser ses limites et à choisir une réussite qui ne coûte pas votre énergie.****Rejoignez la newsletter Sensées : elle vous donne accès à un concentré de coaching, d'inspiration et à un workshop offert chaque mois.

Diese Transformation zeigt sich bei jedem Menschen individuell im jeweiligen Leben. Um dir diese historische Zeit und dein individuelles Leben leichter zu machen, schauen wir uns heute wieder ein spezielles Thema an: Immer wieder kommt es in Coachings und im Leben vor, dass das Visualisieren und Konkretisieren des Traum-Lebens und der Traum-Persönlichkeit von einem tiefen Down unterbrochen bzw begleitet wird. Das Ziel des Videos ist daher genau diesen Zusammenbruch/ Weinkrampf/Aussichtslosigkeit/Sinnlosigkeit des derzeitigen Lebens  zu Normalisieren ihm Raum und Namen zu geben ihn ins Verhältnis zu setzen dir darin Halt zu geben und den Kopf mit der Information zu füttern, dass dieser Zustand vorüber geht Wozu ich dich daher einladen möchte: Annehmen, was ist -  Du bist auch in dieser Emotion sicher, wundervoll und liebenswert Es ist eine Emotion, Frequenz, die sich irgendwo im Körper gelöst hat Es ist wie Muskelkater, wenn du für einen neuen Sport trainierst Es ist wie der aufwirbelnde Staub, wenn du Frühlingsputz machst Nimm es wahr, lass es fliessen, gönn dir eine Auszeit. Trau dich, bewusst durch schmerzhafte und harte Zeiten zu gehen. Dein Traum-Ich ist durch diesen Reinigungsprozess gegangen. Es geht vorüber. Es sind sich lösende Blockaden. Es sind aufgewirbelte Staub-Wolken, die dein Leben anschliessend umso mehr strahlen lassen. Du bist damit nicht allein. Wir alle gehen durch solch bewegende Zeiten. Sei dir wichtig. Du bist unendlich wertvoll.

In der zweiten Folge der fünften Staffel dreht sich alles um Moral. Genauer gesagt um die Frage, ob Sprache einen Einfluss darauf hat, wie wir uns bei moralisch schwierigen Dilemmata entscheiden. Eine Eigenschaft solcher Dilemmata ist schließlich, dass sie gut durchdacht und ausgewogen überlegt werden müssen, bevor wir zu einer Entscheidung kommen – da sollte die Sprache, in der wir ein solches Dilemma durchdenken, doch keinen Einfluss auf unsere Entscheidung haben … oder etwa doch?In dieser Folge tauchen wir in den „Moral Foreign Language Effect“ ein und schauen uns an, wie stark Sprache unsere moralischen Entscheidungen beeinflussen kann. Und Spoiler: Diesen Effekt gibt es wirklich! Ob du zweisprachig aufgewachsen bist oder gerade erst eine neue Sprache lernst – wir besprechen, wie deine sprachliche Umgebung deine Entscheidungen subtil lenken kann und welche Ursachen für diese Beobachtung diskutiert werden.Ein Podcast von Jakob und Anton.Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sprachpfade ---Zitierte Studien:Čavar, Franziska & Agnieszka Ewa Tytus. 2018.

It's Thursday, and we're back with a guest conversation built for leaders who want practical psychology without the fluff. Today: how to feel better, think clearer, and lead smarter with Dr Ryan Martin — The Anger Professor. Guest intro Dr Ryan Martin is a psychologist and emotion researcher known as The Anger Professor. In this conversation he explains why emotions are information, not emergencies, and how small, upstream decisions shape how you feel hours later. His new book lays out 50 research-backed “emotion hacks” that anyone can use at work and at home. Episode summary We start with a classroom exercise that reveals our brains still run ancient threat software. Ryan's Why We Feel model shows how stimuli, mood, interpretation, feeling, and expression combine to create what we experience as emotion. He shares practical in-the-moment tools, then challenges leaders to address root causes: sleep, hydration, nature, worldview, and daily choices. We finish with a manager's checklist for mapping emotional incidents and a simple mantra method for tough moments. Key takeaways Treat emotions as signals. They give you information and energy to act. Most regulation happens upstream. Sleep, hydration, nature, movement, and digital boundaries set your baseline. Worldview matters. Beliefs about people, self, and the future can drive anger, anxiety, or resilience. Use in-the-moment tools wisely. Breathing, grounding, and naming the feeling help you de-escalate and think clearly. Leaders need a map. Diagram the stimulus, mood, interpretation, feeling, and behaviour for yourself and for your team before you act. Practical tools mentioned Grounding: 5 things you can see, 4 you can hear, and so on. Mantras: a short phrase to anchor attention and guide the next step. Nature with attention: unplug and actively notice what you see to reduce rumination. Recognition over suppression: acknowledge the feeling, then choose the response. Worldview audit: do I trust people, see myself as capable, and view the future as hopeful?

“Innovation isn't just about process—it's about emotion. If you're not feeling resistance, you're probably not stretching far enough.” — Brianna Sylver In this episode of Uncorking a Story, host Michael Carlon sits down with nationally recognized innovation strategist Brianna Sylver, founder of Sylver Consulting and author of Leading Through Freefall. Brianna shares the deeply personal and spiritual journey behind her book, which explores the emotional undercurrents of innovation and change. From automatic writing during the pandemic to running a marathon she never thought possible, Brianna's story is one of surrender, resilience, and transformation. Whether you're a leader, changemaker, or simply navigating uncertainty, this conversation offers tools and insights to help you lead with love and clarity. Key Takeaways: Innovation is emotional: Brianna's book focuses on the emotional journey of change, not just the process.  Automatic writing as a spiritual practice: Her daily journaling became a channel for divine guidance and creative clarity. Running a marathon as a metaphor for writing: Both required surrender, discipline, and showing up consistently.  Highly sensitive leadership: Brianna discusses how being highly sensitive can be both a gift and a challenge in professional settings. The grief curve of change: Leaders must recognize and navigate emotional resistance in teams to drive transformation.  Collaborative creation: Brianna leaned on her network to finish her book, proving that writing doesn't have to be a solitary endeavor. Practical tools for leaders: Each chapter includes actionable guides to help navigate emotional dynamics in innovation.

In dieser Folge erwähnter Link: Level me Up! CLUB Manchmal reagieren wir viel stärker, als es die Situation eigentlich rechtfertigen würde.

Crafting donor experiences that feel like art, because emotional intelligence is the new campaign currency.SHOW NOTES:November 6, 2025 – Episode # 206The Color of Giving: Painting Fundraising with Emotion & Intelligence Peeling back the curtain on the true art of fundraising, this episode of Raise Nation Radio invites you into a bold, brainy, and beautifully human conversation with Bill Crouch, Founder & CEO of BrightDot. Host Dawn Lego unpacks how the most effective fundraisers today are leading with emotional intelligence, leveraging donor psychology, and tapping into creativity to deeply connect with high-wealth individuals. This isn't your typical fundraising talk. Bill challenges fundraisers not only to know their donors but also to feel with them, think creatively, and train with intention. From the power of visual storytelling to the resilience needed after rejection, this episode is both a masterclass and a motivational nudge for anyone seeking to raise more by connecting deeper. Guest Reflection: “You don't ask people to give because of what you need; you ask because of what they believe in. Every gift is a reflection of how deeply you've made them feel that they matter.“ — Bill CrouchEpisode Highlights: Exploring the difference between data and wisdom in fundraising. Why emotional intelligence is the secret sauce in donor engagement. The psychology behind why high-wealth donors give, and why they don't. How visual communication outperforms text when influencing major gifts. Strategies to recover emotionally after a ‘no' and stay mission-driven. The importance of creative coaching and personalized training for nonprofit success.

You think your posture is just muscles and bones. But what if the “scaffolding” that holds you together is also storing your emotions, shaping your face, and quietly dictating how you move through the world?This week on Live Well Be Well, Jason Van Blerk - biomedical physiologist, kinesiologist, and co-founder of Human Garage - joins me to explore fascia: the body's intelligent, water-rich network that connects everything. We unpack how rotation, breath, and vibration can unwind tension, release emotion, and restore flow - often in minutes.Jason shares his journey from injured athlete to fascia educator, the simple daily maneuvers he teaches, and the surprising science that links stiffness, mood, and the nervous system. We also talk barefoot living, grounding, and why “be the change” is more than a quote - it's biology.Here's what we dive into:How fascia functions as an intelligent, water-based organ that sends and receives information.Why emotions like fear and desire shape movement, posture, and even facial structure.How counter-rotation and breath unwind restrictions more effectively than linear stretching.What a living fascia looks like under magnification, and why dead-tissue dissections miss the point.Why stiffness in the neck/upper back correlates with low mood, and what one session can shift.How daily micro-manoeuvres (15 minutes) restore flow, reduce stress, and change how you see the world.What vibration and sound do at a cellular level, and how your words “program” your body.How barefoot walking and grounding re-charge cellular voltage and improve whole-body mechanics.Why self-care comes first: the limits of quick fixes, and the power of simple, repeatable practices.How to start today with one shoulder release and a gentle rotation sequence you can do anywhere.Love,Sarah Ann

You're the parent, or stepparent, who wants less conflict and more connection. But a child's resistance, sarcasm, isolation, or hurtful words, such as: “you're not my dad,” can derail plans and result in hurtful interactions. We've been there.In part 2 of this mini-series, you'll discover how to respond well in tough moments of pushback by using John Gottman's 5 steps of Emotion Coaching. You'll hear us role-play around real-life pushback when a child is competing for a parent's love, making accusations and threats, and behaving oppositionally toward a stepparent.We'll offer a better way to manage those moments with words that help kids feel seen, heard, and understood.  We'll also show you the best approach for addressing poor behavior and setting boundaries. The plan is simple: notice the emotion, treat it as an opportunity, listen and validate, help label feelings, then set limits while exploring solutions. Practice this, and you'll be surprised at how you can lower the tension, build relational safety, and strengthen your connection with a struggling child. When pushback hits, it is possible to move away from reacting in ways that don't help and instead, create an atmosphere of mutual trust, respect,  and real connection in your home.You'll Discover:The 5 Emotion Coaching steps from John Gottman (with wording you can steal) and why each step matters. How to decode what's going on underneath pushback and respond in a way that helps your child move through pain, loss, anger, sadness, and confusion. When and how to set behavioral boundaries so that kids are more open to receiving and responding well. A simple script for stepparents to defuse “You're not my dad/mom” moments while building mutual respect and understanding. When and how to engage in problem-solving with your child and foster real buy-in, confidence, and trust.Resources from this Episode:Raising an Emotionally Intelligent Child by Dr. John GottmanEpisode 222.

À vous comme à moi, on a appris que pour réussir, il faut donner plus : plus d'énergie, plus d'heures, plus d'efforts. Mais à force de toujours faire cet “effort de plus”, beaucoup de femmes leaders s'épuisent, se perdent ou finissent par quitter le jeu à cause d'un burn out. Dans cet épisode, je vous propose un nouveau paradigme : celui de l'effort juste.Vous découvrez : pourquoi je reviens sur la notion d'effort de plus - à laquelle je croyais vraiment il y a quelques annéescomment l'effort juste vous permet de calibrer votre énergie pour qu'elle serve vos ambitions sans vous épuiser et aller jusqu'au burn out, et comment juger le niveau d'effort pour ne pas franchir la ligne qui fait passer de l'exigence au perfectionnisme, Tout cela pour pouvoir incarner un leadership humain et durable, c'est-à-dire qui ne retire rien à votre impact mais respecte votre écologie intérieure.Un épisode essentiel pour toutes celles qui veulent continuer leur croissance professionnelle et éviter l'épuisement et le burn out.****Rejoignez la newsletter Sensées : elle vous donne accès à un concentré de coaching, d'inspiration et à un workshop offert chaque mois.

-More than 30 years after the practice was thoroughly debunked as fake, universities and "providers" for autistic people are still using "facilitated communication." It's literally human ventriloquist dummy puppeteering. Come see. -Once we invest in an Inspirational Story That Everyone Loves, Americans lose the ability to think the story through.

Episode Summary: In this episode of The Advancing Women Podcast, Dr. Kimberly DeSimone explores the science and social conditioning behind women's emotional sensitivity, and reframes it more accurately…as a strength, not a flaw. Research shows that women, on average, have lower baseline serotonin levels than men; but the story doesn't end there. This biological difference interacts with hormonal cycles and cultural expectations to shape how women feel, respond, and are perceived. Dr. DeSimone reveals how emotional responsiveness, so often dismissed as being “too emotional”, is actually a powerful form of emotional intelligence, leadership, and adaptive strength. From boardrooms to families, women's ability to read the room, sense tension, and lead with empathy is not “soft,” it's strategic. This episode offers both a scientific and empowering reframe that helps us honor our depth, protect our energy, and lead from emotional authenticity without apology. In this episode, you'll learn: Why women's serotonin levels affect emotional sensitivity — and what that means for mood and connection. How cultural conditioning distorts emotional intelligence into “overreaction.” The “gendered emotion hierarchy”, and how bias defines which emotions are labeled as strength or weakness. Why empathy and sensitivity are forms of data gatheringand leadership. How to protect your emotional energy through mindful boundaries and self-compassion. Key Takeaways: Sensitivity is strength. Emotional attunement is intelligence. Emotion is data, not drama. Boundaries protect your empathy. Reframing emotional intelligence is revolutionary leadership. Mentioned concepts: Serotonin and hormonal influence on mood Gender socialization and emotional labor Emotional intelligence and leadership Patriarchal bias in emotion valuation Mindful self-protection and boundary-setting #AdvancingWomenPodcast #EmotionalIntelligence #WomenInLeadership #SensitivityIsStrength #GenderBias #EmotionalIntelligenceAtWork #EmpathyInLeadership References: Don't Call Them Soft Skills: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/dont-call-them-soft-skills-with-communications/id1569849100?i=1000606194105 Brain and Behavior Research Foundation (2024).

How to Market to Cybersecurity's Most Elusive Buyers: AI, Emotion, and the Human Touch - Interview with Gianna Whitver and Maria Velasquez | Cyber Marketing Con 2025 Coverage | On Location with Sean Martin and Marco CiappelliCyberMarketingCon 2025 In Person & Virtual https://www.cybermarketingconference.comDec 7-10, 2025 in Austin, Texas Why Cybersecurity Marketing Demands a Different PlaybookThe cybersecurity industry presents a paradox for marketers. While practitioners work with cutting-edge technology, traditional marketing approaches consistently fall flat. Gianna Whitver and Maria Velasquez, co-founders of the Cybersecurity Marketing Society, have spent six years understanding why—and they're sharing those insights at CyberMarketingCon 2025 this December in Austin.The challenge begins with the audience itself. Security professionals operate under constant pressure, actively preventing threats while juggling competing priorities. This stress creates an environment where patience for marketing noise evaporates instantly. Unlike other industries where buyers might browse vendor websites or respond to cold outreach, cybersecurity practitioners have both the technical sophistication to evade tracking and the motivation to control their own buying journey."Our buyer is highly elusive," Whitver explains. "They're saving the world and their companies from threats. When vendors reach out, it's an interruption to critical work." This dynamic forces marketers to rethink fundamental assumptions about how business gets done.The numbers tell part of the story. With over 5,000 cybersecurity vendors flooding the market, standing out based solely on technical specifications has become nearly impossible. Many solutions address similar problems with comparable features. The differentiator, Velasquez argues, isn't in the technology itself but in how that technology transforms the buyer's daily experience."We have to shed that technical layer and go for the emotion," Velasquez says. "If they buy our product, how is it gonna make them feel? Are they gonna get their weekends back with family? Are they actually gonna go to sleep without stress?" This human-centered approach represents a fundamental shift from the feeds-and-speeds messaging that dominated cybersecurity marketing for years.The industry is witnessing what Velasquez calls an "evolution slash revolution" in marketing tactics. Humor, entertainment, and authentic storytelling are replacing dense whitepapers as the first touch point. The goal isn't to dumb down complex technology but to create space for meaningful engagement by first addressing the emotional reality of a stressful profession.Trust remains the currency that matters most. Peer recommendations carry exponentially more weight than any advertising campaign. Security professionals rely on trusted networks to validate purchasing decisions, making community building and genuine thought leadership more valuable than aggressive outreach. Word-of-mouth referrals from colleagues who have seen real results trump even the most sophisticated demand generation campaigns.The emergence of AI as a marketing buzzword presents both opportunity and risk. Whitver notes that countless vendors now position themselves as "AI-native" or "agentic AI" solutions without articulating meaningful differentiation. "If that's what you remember about their product, what do you actually do?" she asks. The challenge for marketers is communicating AI's business value without contributing to the noise.CyberMarketingCon 2025 addresses these challenges head-on. Running December 7-10 in Austin, the conference brings together more than 550 marketing professionals for hands-on workshops, peer learning, and practical strategy sessions. Dedicated tracks cover brand, demand generation, operations, communications, and product marketing, with special summits for CEOs and sales leaders.Hands-on AI workshops represent a conference highlight. Attendees can build marketing agents using n8n, explore Clay for go-to-market planning, or participate in a marketer-focused capture-the-flag hacking exercise. The "Marketing Time Machine" theme balances timeless fundamentals with forward-looking innovation, acknowledging that effective marketing requires both solid foundations and experimental thinking.What sets CyberMarketingCon apart is its community-first philosophy. Despite 40-50% year-over-year growth, organizers prioritize maintaining an intimate, reunion-style atmosphere. Many CMOs bring entire teams for what becomes a working offsite, with different members attending specialized sessions then synthesizing insights into unified strategies.The conference's success metric reflects this philosophy. "Our KPI is: is it worth your time?" Whitver says. In an industry where time represents the scarcest resource, that might be the most important question of all.For cybersecurity marketers navigating an increasingly complex landscape, CyberMarketingCon offers something rare—a chance to learn from peers facing identical challenges, build practical skills, and remember that even in a technical industry, it's humans talking to humans. CyberMarketingCon 2025 In Person & Virtual https://www.cybermarketingconference.comDec 7-10, 2025 in Austin, Texas GUEST:Gianna WhitverCo-Founder & CEO, Cybersecurity Marketing Society | Cybersecurity GTM Industry Resource | Cybersecurity Marketing | Bees & Cybersecurity | Podcast Host | Community | (I like to build things & laugh a lot & tell jokes)Maria Velasquez

In this powerful episode of The Alpha Male Coach Podcast, Kevin breaks down the core framework of transformation used within the Academy for Consciousness Expansion: the Five Phases of Awakening. This system represents the primary logos of the Academy - a deliberate and structured path that leads men from unconscious survival-based living to conscious, self-authored creation.Kevin begins by revisiting three major analogies he has taught in previous episodes: the holographic reality, the 1% vs. 99% shadow and light expression, and the natural versus matrix world. While each analogy offers a different perspective, they all point to the same truth - human beings live through layers of perception that obscure their access to the deeper reality of consciousness. These analogies serve as the backdrop and context for understanding each phase in the awakening process.The journey starts in Phase One: Awareness. Most people never reach this stage - the recognition that thoughts exist, that thoughts are not facts, and that thinking is observable. Kevin explains how metacognition initiates empowerment and breaks the automatic conditioning of the survival-based “beta condition.”Once awareness is established, Phase Two: Observation of Emotion teaches men that emotions are not emergencies. Kevin explains emotions as biochemical indicators of thought rather than signals of truth or danger. Instead of resisting, reacting to, or buffering emotional discomfort, listeners are encouraged to allow emotions to move through the body while gathering the valuable data they reveal about internal beliefs.Phase Three: Ownership of Action marks a shift from reaction to pro-action. Here, a man learns to stop waiting for motivation and start acting from intention - showing up in discipline, speaking truth, and behaving in alignment with his standards, regardless of how he feels. This is where courage and confidence take form.In Phase Four: Choosing Conscious Thought, identity intentionally shifts. Kevin emphasizes the transformational nature of belief work: changing language from hope to decision, try to commitment, can't to will. As thoughts change, vibration changes - leading to radical shifts in perception, behavior, and results.Finally, Phase Five: Embodiment and Integration represents mastery as a way of being. Standards become internalized. Fear becomes an invitation. Discomfort becomes proof of purpose. The work is no longer something practiced - it is lived. Yet, even here, the enemy of complacency remains, reminding listeners that the path continues and devotion is ongoing.Throughout the episode, Kevin reminds men that awakening is not a destination but a lifestyle - a continual recalibration toward the alpha state. The Five Phases of Awakening provide a clear, logical, and repeatable path for dissolving conditioning, reclaiming self-authority, and elevating one's life to the highest potential.

Send us a textHello you beautiful souls, welcome back...In this episode, we continue our journey through the chakras by moving upward into the Sacral Chakra, or Svadhisthana— the center of emotion, creativity, pleasure, and flow. This energy governs how freely you express yourself, how connected you feel to your desires, and how deeply you allow yourself to experience joy and intimacy.When the Sacral Chakra is balanced, life feels fluid, inspired, and full of color — but when it's blocked, you may feel emotionally stuck, disconnected from your body, or closed off from pleasure and creative energy. Together, we'll explore what causes these imbalances, how to release emotional stagnation, and how to reconnect with your inner flow through movement, creativity, and self-expression.This is an invitation to soften, to feel, and to remember the beauty of being alive in your body — allowing energy to move freely again, with ease and joy.Love Always, Hannah xoxo

Philosophy has spent thousands of years trying to teach us how to live well. But the deeper you go, the darker it gets. So what's the point? What can we take from all that heaviness—and how do we find beauty in the darkness to make our own lives better? Expect to learn if philosophy always meant to be practically applicable, or if that is that a modern reinterpretation, which ancient schools have been most unfairly ignored, which branches of philosophy should be jettisoned entirely, why everyone hate philosophy of mind, the differences between academic and practical philosophy, the darkest philosophies you've probably never heard of, why modern discourse always feel ironic and why no one speaks earnestly any more and much more… Sponsors: See discounts for all the products I use and recommend: https://chriswillx.com/deals Get Free Travel Packs, Free Liquid Vitamin D, and more from AG1 at https://ag1.info/modernwisdom Get $100 off the best bloodwork analysis in America at https://functionhealth.com/modernwisdom Get 35% off your first subscription on the best supplements from Momentous at https://livemomentous.com/modernwisdom Get a Free Sample Pack of LMNT's most popular flavours with your first purchase at https://drinklmnt.com/modernwisdom Timestamps: (0:00) Can Philosophy Actually Help You Live Better?
