Michael Mosbacher in The Telegraph posed a controversial question: “Are we spending too much educating those who do not want to learn?” The question was linked to the ‘Highjacked High Streets' study undertaken by the Centre for Social Justice, a think tank established by former Conservative leader Sir Iain Duncan-Smith. The study reported that a small minority of young people are demonstrating anti-social behaviour which terrorises local areas. This was then aligned with behaviour in classrooms, where learning can be repeatedly disrupted by a small handful of students. The article highlighted the high level of truancy since Covid, demonstrating that students are voting with their feet, and recognised that huge amounts of effort are being expended to return students to the classroom. However, do we need to look at the bigger picture? Is attendance against all odds really the holy grail? Where are these problems originating: a curriculum not fit for 21st century learners or a change in the approach to discipline? Should all students be forced to attend school or should we be looking at alternatives? On the panel: JP, Ollie Bayliss, Liz Webb, Maud Waret.

THE HOMEOPATHY HEALTH SHOW Beyond the Smile: Integrating Homeopathy into Modern Dentistry Featuring Dr. Samantha Jugdev Episode Summary Can a visit to the dentist become a more holistic, compassionate and healing experience? In this fascinating episode of The Homeopathy Health Show, Atiq Ahmad Bhatti and Naila Cheema welcome Dr. Samantha Jugdev, an award-winning dental surgeon, homeopath and educator, to explore the powerful relationship between oral health and whole-body wellbeing. Drawing upon her unique experience as both a dentist and Fellow of the Faculty of Homeopathy, Dr. Jugdev explains how homeopathy can work seamlessly alongside conventional dentistry to support healing, reduce anxiety, improve recovery after dental procedures and provide truly patient-centred care. Sharing remarkable clinical experiences, from her early days as an Army dentist to leading homeopathic education for healthcare professionals, she demonstrates that dentistry is about far more than teeth; it is about understanding the person behind the smile. The conversation explores dental anxiety, gum disease, root canal treatment, tissue salts, teething, orthodontics, holistic dentistry, fluoride, oral health and the exciting future of integrative dental care. It is an inspiring discussion showing how conventional excellence and homeopathic philosophy can work together to achieve the very best outcomes for patients. In This Episode We Explore From Army Dentist to Homeopath Dr. Jugdev's journey from military dentistry into homeopathy. How a single clinical case transformed scepticism into conviction. The remarkable patient cases that inspired a lifelong passion for integrative care. The Mouth as a Window to Whole-Body Health Why oral health reflects the health of the entire person. Looking beyond individual teeth to understand the patient as a whole. The relationship between physical, emotional and systemic wellbeing. Homeopathy Alongside Modern Dentistry Supporting conventional dental procedures with homeopathic remedies. How homeopathy can reduce pain, swelling, inflammation and anxiety. Why integrative dentistry benefits both practitioners and patients. Managing Dental Anxiety Naturally Understanding why so many people fear visiting the dentist.

The Future of Integrative Dentistry Why more dentists are beginning to explore homeopathy. Educating healthcare professionals through the National Centre for Integrative Medicine (NCIM). Creating a future where conventional dentistry and homeopathy work side by side to improve patient care. About Our Guest Dr. Samantha Jugdev Dr. Samantha Jugdev is a General Dental Practitioner, Fellow of the Faculty of Homeopathy (FFHom) and one of the UK's leading advocates for integrating homeopathy into modern dental practice. After beginning her career as a dentist in the British Army, she developed a passion for homeopathy following remarkable clinical experiences that transformed her understanding of healing. She became a Member of the Faculty of Homeopathy in 2015 before progressing to Fellowship and now serves as Education Lead for Homeopathy at the National Centre for Integrative Medicine (NCIM). She also represents NCIM on the Faculty of Homeopathy's Academic and Examining Board and is Chairperson of the British Homeopathic Dental Association, where she continues to promote education, research and the integration of homeopathy within dentistry. Through her clinical practice in Oxfordshire, Dr. Jugdev offers patients an approach that combines evidence-based dentistry with compassionate, holistic care - demonstrating that the healthiest smiles begin by treating the whole person, not just their teeth.
Send us Fan MailWhat if the parts of yourself you struggle with most are not meant to be destroyed, but redirected?In Lesson 13 of Kabbalah for Everyone, Rabbi Yisroel Bernath moves beyond simply identifying the Nefesh HaBahamit, the animal soul and discovers the deeper Kabbalistic vision: the goal is not to become less human, less passionate, less ambitious, or less emotional. The goal is to educate the enormous energy already inside us.Drawing from Tanya, we explore itkafya, the ability to create space between an impulse and our response; the inner “courtroom” of the beinoni, where a feeling may make its argument without being allowed to issue the verdict; and ultimately the possibility of redirecting the animal soul itself toward holiness.The ox is powerful. Unharnessed, it can destroy a field. Harnessed, that very same strength can produce a harvest. Your stubbornness can become loyalty. Your ambition can become service. Your sensitivity can become compassion. Your appetite for life can itself become part of your relationship with G-d.The goal is not spirituality despite being human. It is spirituality through being human.Key PointsA voice is not a verdict. An impulse, emotion, or thought may speak loudly without being given authority over what you think, say, or do.The beinoni is not someone without struggle. Spiritual greatness can exist right in the middle of an ongoing inner battle.Itkafya creates freedom. Sometimes holiness begins with the ability to say, “I want this, but I do not have to obey it right now.”Don't kill the ox. Harness it. The raw energy behind difficult traits may contain tremendous spiritual power.Same ox. Different plow. Stubbornness can become persistence. Competition can become self-improvement. Pleasure can become beautiful Shabbat. Ambition can become service.The Nefesh HaSichlit is the translator. Our rational mind can help translate the G-dly soul's truths into language the animal soul can actually understand.Dirah BiTachtonim happens inside us too. G-d wants a dwelling not only in the obviously holy parts of life, but in our bodies, appetites, personalities, passions, and physical energy.Transformation does not mean sanctifying harmful behavior. We reject what is destructive while asking what healthy, holy power may exist underneath it.Do not confuse recurring struggle with failure. Needing to choose again today does not erase yesterday's victory.The ultimate question is not, “Why am I not somebody else?” It is: “What am I going to do with the soul and temperament G-d gave me?”Tonight Wednesday September 2 at 7:30pm EST on Zoomhttps://www.jewishndg.com/civicrm/event/register?reset=1&id=110September 16th at 7:30pm EST on ZoomThe Forgiveness Experiment: LIVEhttps://www.jewishndg.com/civicrm/event/register?id=109The School for Sensitive Soulshttps://www.kabbalah4everyone.com/checkout/sensitive-souls#Kabbalah #kabala #Jewish #Judaism #KabbalahForEveryone #Rabbiyisroelbernath #Tanya #chassidus #chabad #ChabadChassidus #JewishWisdom #NefeshHaBahamis #AnimalSoul #Beinoni #Itkafya #DirahBiTachtonim #JewishSpirituality #SelfMastery #Transformation #purpose Rabbi Yisroel Bernath's New Book The Forgiveness Experiment is Available now:Paperback: https://www.amazon.com/Forgiveness-Experiment-What-Would-Your/dp/1069217638Kindle: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FR2QNJL6Audiobook: https://bit.ly/4tPFZhVSupport the showGot your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

This week on EMS One-Stop, I sit down with Liz Harney, almost a year after I first walked into a classroom at EMS World Expo looking for another session to report on and found what I later described as “the keynote I didn't know I needed.” Liz's presentation was built around a part of EMS education we routinely acknowledge but rarely give equal billing: the affective domain — empathy, communication, professionalism, self-awareness and the ability to connect with another human being in what may be the worst moment of their life. But the real power came from Liz herself. Before she was a paramedic, educator and EMS leader, she was the patient. At the lowest point of a decade-long struggle with addiction, one paramedic looked beyond the overdose, the circumstances and the judgement, and treated her as a person who still mattered. Liz credits that interaction not simply with helping save her clinically, but with changing the trajectory of her life. She recovered, entered EMS and ultimately became the kind of paramedic she had encountered that day. It is a remarkable journey from patient to paramedic, and in this conversation, Liz explains why that experience now sits at the heart of everything she teaches about the human side of EMS. | MORE: Liz Harney — the affective domain is the heart of EMS, so why aren't we teaching it? Our discussion also catches up with where Liz's thinking has evolved since. In her recent EMS1 article, “Shiny Happy People,” she takes that same belief in people and applies it to EMS leadership, challenging professionals that is exceptionally good at identifying everything that might go wrong not to let that instinct extinguish every new idea before it gets moving. Together, we connect those themes: the provider who changed one patient's life, the importance of deliberately teaching the affective domain, turning cynics into champions, recognizing burnout through QA and QI, and creating leadership teams with enough optimism and emotional intelligence (EI) to make change happen. At a time when EMS is increasingly consumed by another form of intelligence (AI), the conversation comes back to a proposition I think matters more and more: if we are going to get good at AI, we first need to get much better at EI. Additional resources: Liz Harney: Shiny happy people. The leadership power of optimism Rob Lawrence: The affective domain is the heart of EMS — so why aren't we teaching it? Inside EMS: Tactical empathy: The leadership tool you're not using enough Colby Davis: Can emotional intelligence be taught? Shannon L. Gollnick: The paradox of progress — emotional intelligence as the differentiator in an AI-augmented workforce Key quotes “It truly was a paramedic that not only saved me in a clinical sense, but she saved me in a human sense.” — Liz Harney “Everybody has a story and they're all a little the same, but they're all very different at the same time.” — Liz Harney “It's our role as educators and program directors to be able to ensure that we are instilling, improving the affective domain, just as we are the cognitive and the psychomotor.” — Liz Harney “You created from the cynic, turned them into the champion, and then the champion then took that back to their own service.” — Rob Lawrence “I am the dreamer, probably because I have forged myself out of the depths of hell.” — Liz Harney “Look at me, anything is possible. Like there is never a ‘no' in my language.” — Liz Harney “In order to build, in order to make change, in order to move the needle, you have to have folks that are strong in EI to make that happen.” — Liz Harney “There's always room for improvement.” — Liz Harney “I may not be able to teach everyone to care, but I absolutely think you can teach people what caring looks like in practice.” — Liz Harney “No one's ever complained about the gauge of needle that we used, but they've certainly complained that the medic was mean.” — Rob Lawrence “People underestimate the power of storytelling, but I'm here to tell you that is what creates the change into someone, that changes their perspective.” — Liz Harney Episode timeline 00:00 — Harney on surviving addiction, being written off and the potential EMS providers have to influence another person's future 01:02 — Rob welcomes listeners to EMS One-Stop and introduces Liz Harney 02:14 — How Rob first encountered Harney at EMS World Expo and why he describes her presentation as “the keynote I didn't know I needed” 02:40 — Liz Harney 101: critical care paramedicine, organizational leadership, Baptist Health, Kentucky EMS workforce initiatives and Paramedic Pathways 04:10 — Harney reflects on the rapid growth of her speaking platform and why sharing her story remains difficult but necessary 05:32 — The human side of EMS: affect, emotional intelligence and why clinical competence alone is not enough 08:10 — AI versus EI: why Lawrence argues that increasingly intelligent technology makes human emotional intelligence even more important 09:00 — From patient to paramedic: Harney recounts the interaction with the paramedic who changed the direction of her life 18:33 — Revealing her past to colleagues and students, and how that story changes attitudes toward people experiencing addiction 22:08 — Why simply telling EMS students to care does not work — and how Harney began using clinical rotations and direct patient interaction to build the affective domain 23:18 — “Everybody has a story:” students hear directly from people in addiction recovery 25:23 — The cynic-to-champion story: a student's dismissive attitude toward patients with addiction is transformed through one clinical rotation 31:00 — Educating not simply for cognitive and psychomotor competence, but for the clinician the student is becoming 32:15 — Harney moves from education into leadership and begins seeing the same issues around decision-making tables 33:19 — The case for optimism: Harney describes herself as a dreamer and explains how persistent negativity can kill innovation 34:04 — Lawrence's rule: “If we do what we always did, we'll get what we always got” 36:27 — Why potential barriers matter — but introducing every possible objection too early can destroy an idea before it develops 38:02 — “Shiny, happy people:” the discussion turns to Harney's article on optimism, innovation and assembling teams capable of making change 39:02 — Harney describes Kentucky's EMS workforce committee and what happened when a group of optimistic problem-solvers started building ideas without immediately saying “no” 41:00 — Choosing the right people for decision-making groups: why names, titles and tenure should not outweigh emotional intelligence 41:59 — Harney defines EI: self-awareness, self-regulation, communication and empathy 45:00 — “You can teach people what caring looks like in practice.” 45:15 — Lawrence asks whether EMS can genuinely change the affect and attitudes of a generation of clinicians 46:39 — Protecting the workforce: recognizing behavioral changes, cumulative exposure and the early warning signs of burnout 47:41 — QA/QI as more than clinical oversight: documentation can expose frustration and changes in provider behavior 48:07 — The leadership question: “What can I do for you?” 49:27 — The power of storytelling to challenge judgment and change perspectives 49:49 — Harney returns to her own experience: addiction, being cast off and ultimately demonstrating that recovery and transformation are possible 51:10 — Harney's closing message: “You don't have to understand someone's life to understand your responsibility to them.” 52:41 — Turning QA/QI from a fault-finding function into a mechanism for recognizing providers, celebrating success and checking on people carrying heavy cognitive and emotional loads 54:10 — Lawrence recommends seeing Harney speak: “You will come away emotional but enlightened.” Enjoying the show?

In the two decades between the First and Second World Wars, Jewish parents in Poland faced a proliferation of choices when it came to educating their children. Each choice offered a vision of what future Polish Jews desired, what they expected, and the gap between the two. State schools taught in Polish (sometimes with a schedule to accommodate traditional religious observance), secularist Yiddish schools with strong ties to Jewish socialism and the labor movement, Hebraist schools promoting political and cultural Zionism, and religious schools that retained--or innovated upon--traditionalist educational models reflected different opinions for what Jewish children in interwar Poland would need in the present to secure their future. In this lecture, Elena Hoffenberg draws upon materials held by YIVO to explore how projections about the future in terms of work, culture, and politics guided parents, educational activists, and young people themselves. Choices as reflections of competing political and religious commitments, as well as material constraints, to better understand what Polish Jews expected for their individual and communal futures.

What would change in your real estate business if you stopped trying to look perfect online and focused instead on consistently showing people something genuinely useful?

She loved your energy.She opened up about her birth. You connected instantly. The conversation felt easy. You hung up thinking, there's no way she's not booking.Then comes:"I need to think about it.""I need to talk to my husband."Or worse... silence.And your first instinct might be to blame your price or the other doula she's interviewing.But what if you're losing the sale somewhere completely different?In this episode, I'm breaking down five mistakes I've repeatedly spotted while auditing real doula consultations- and most of them look like things you're supposed to be doing.Building rapport. Educating. Explaining your value. Giving her options. Giving her space to decide.You know that connection is one of your greatest strengths..But connection without leadership creates hesitation. And hesitation doesn't convert.We're getting into the tiny moments that can completely change the outcome of a consultation, what happens after you say your price, why giving a mother more options can actually make the decision harder, and the place I see doulas unknowingly abandon the sale altogether.And if your immediate thought is, "But Lisa, I just need more inquiries..."Listen to this episode before you spend another minute trying to create them.Because more leads won't fix a conversion problem.And you may be much closer to consistent $10K months than you think.

What would happen to your business tomorrow if you suddenly could not personally handle every task you handle today?? In this episode of the Real Estate Excellence Podcast, Tracy Hayes sits down with Angela Stancil. Angela Stancil is a Northeast Florida REALTOR whose career began in education, first in the classroom and later in school administration, before an unexpected relocation to Florida opened the door to real estate. Working behind the scenes with Team Davidow gave Angela an unusual introduction to the industry. Instead of beginning by chasing transactions, she first learned operations, client communication, negotiation, marketing, organization, and the systems that make a productive real estate business work. Angela shares how relationships became the foundation of her business and why listening carefully to buyers and sellers creates better outcomes than simply trying to make a sale. She explains the importance of consultations, transaction support, assistants, CRMs, customer appreciation events, vendor relationships, and delegation. Her experience also demonstrates why a business needs systems strong enough to continue when life becomes unpredictable. Angela's story ultimately shows that sustainable success comes from relationships, preparation, communication, and building a business that does not depend on one person doing everything. If you are building a real estate career, take Angela's advice seriously. Strengthen your systems, stay connected with your clients, delegate the work that keeps you away from relationships, and build a business capable of serving people consistently through every season.

Back to school is in the air, on our minds and all over social media. Why? Because our kids' education is a big deal. As we launch into a new year of academics and extra-curricular activities, let's stop and take a step back and look towards the future. What does a successful education look like? Are we taking the right steps toward that goal? How can we keep the right perspective about our kids' education and make sure we are equipping them for real success?

More households in low-income countries own a mobile phone than have electricity or clean water. So why is education one of the last places it has been put to work?Jenny Aker (Cornell) and Noam Angrist (Oxford) are the academic leads on a J-PAL Policy Insight that reviews 30 studies of mobile phone programmes in education. They tell Tim Phillips that the cheapest option, blasting out SMS messages, is usually the one that fails. But put a real person on the other end of the line, and that's an effective and inexpensive way to improve education. The phone is a platform, Angrist points out, not a pedagogy.The research behind this episode:Abdul Latif Jameel Poverty Action Lab (J-PAL). 2026. "Leveraging Mobile Phones for Learning." J-PAL Policy Insight. Academic leads Jenny Aker and Noam Angrist; insight authors Jessica Williams and Demitria Wack.To cite this episode:Phillips, Tim, Jenny Aker, and Noam Angrist. 2026. "Using mobile phones to support teachers, parents, and students." VoxDev Talks (podcast).About the guestsJenny Aker is the Daniel G. Sisler Professor of Development Economics at Cornell University. She is also a non-resident fellow at the Center for Global Development and co-chair of the Digital Identification and Finance Initiative at J-PAL Africa. Her research spans mobile technology and agricultural markets, adult literacy and numeracy, financial inclusion, and the design of cash transfers and social protection in Africa.Noam Angrist is Academic Director of the What Works Hub for Global Education and Senior Research Fellow at the University of Oxford, and co-founder of Youth Impact, one of the largest NGOs scaling health and education programmes backed by randomised trial evidence. His research spans distance education, the measurement of implementation, and how programmes that work in a trial can be made to work at national scale.Research and concepts cited in this episodeOne Laptop per Child. The plan to put a cheap laptop in the hands of every child in the developing world, launched in 2005 and abandoned as evidence of its effect on learning failed to appear. Angrist raises it as the cautionary tale for anyone introducing a device: the schools could not absorb it, the software was an afterthought, and nobody planned for charging or breakage. Phones avoid that problem because they are already there, so the marginal cost of adding good pedagogy is low. A long-term follow up from rural Peru found no positive effect on educational outcomes.Mobile coverage. GSMA. 2025. "The State of Mobile Internet Connectivity 2025." Around 95% of the world's population now lives within range of a broadband network. In sub-Saharan Africa coverage is about 80% and adoption about 60%, and what people mostly hold is a simple handset rather than a smartphone.Phone tutoring in emergencies. Angrist, Noam, Micheal Ainomugisha, Sai Pramod Bathena, Peter Bergman, Colin Crossley, Claire Cullen, Thato Letsomo, Moitshepi Matsheng, Rene Marlon Panti, Shwetlena Sabarwal, and Tim Sullivan. 2023. "Building Resilient Education Systems: Evidence from Large-Scale Randomized Trials in Five Countries." NBER Working Paper 31208, revised 2025. Weekly maths texts combined with live tutoring calls raised test scores by 0.30 to 0.35 standard deviations at an average cost of US$11 per child. SMS on its own moved the needle only where access to learning was already very low.Scaling up without the drop. The first Botswana phone tutoring trial produced an effect of about 0.12 standard deviations; by the fifth replication, in Uganda, Angrist says the effect was over 0.8, and implementation fidelity data improved in step with the order of the studies. He sets this against the voltage drop described by John List in The Voltage Effect (2022), the tendency of programmes to lose their punch as they scale. Common, Angrist argues, but not inevitable.A/B testing the tutoring call. Angrist, Noam, Claire Cullen, and Janica Magat. 2025. "Cheaper (and More Effective) by the Dozen: Evidence from 12 Randomised A/B Tests Optimising Tutoring for Scale." What Works Hub for Global Education Working Paper 2025/001. Roughly half the cost of a tutoring programme goes on scheduling rather than teaching. One call of 40 minutes every fortnight, instead of 20 minutes every week, delivered the same dosage for less. Handing the call to a parent partway through doubled to tripled the effect; motivational nudges to parents did nothing.Monitoring teachers by phone. Aker, Jenny C., and Christopher Ksoll. 2019. "Call Me Educated: Evidence from a Mobile Phone Experiment in Niger." Economics of Education Review 72: 239 to 257. Weekly calls to the teacher, the village chief and two students raised maths and reading scores. The counter-example comes from Côte d'Ivoire, where nudging parents and teachers at the same time left the most motivated teachers turning up less; too much scrutiny, the authors suggest, corroded the motivation the programme depended on.Platform and pedagogy. Angrist's phrase for the distinction the review keeps returning to. The phone carries an intervention; it is not the intervention. Targeted instruction and early childhood stimulation both travel down the line, but somebody still has to decide how often to call, who picks up, and what happens on the call. The same traffic makes the phone a good instrument for research, since the data is traceable and the units of randomisation are well powered.Education Cannot Wait. The United Nations fund for education in emergencies and protracted crises. Its 2022 global estimate put 222 million crisis-affected children and adolescents in need of urgent education support, up from about 75 million in 2016. Angrist uses the same figure in the five-country paper, and cites it here to make the point that the humanitarian structures for education in emergencies exist while the evidence base underneath them barely does.More VoxDev Talks episodesHow AI can put 20 years of development evidence to work.

Tribe Sober - inspiring an alcohol-free life! This week my guest is tribe member Clive Vanderwagen. Clive is a business and leadership coach who is also a wine expert! In this Episode Clive's father offered him a taste of wine at quite an early age in an effort to make it “less exciting” but looking back Clive feels this was a bit naïve and if he was ever a parent he would probably share with his kids that he had struggled with alcohol himself and that it should be treated with caution. Educating our kids about alcohol is SO tricky but one thing is for sure – it's easier to do it if we don't drink – it's no good saying one thing and then modelling another as we open our nightly bottle of wine! Like many of us Clive felt invincible when he was younger and the fact that he became dependent on alcohol took him by surpise. Alcohol dependency tends to sneak up on us over the years and its only when we try to cut down or give up that we realise we have a problem! That's why regular breaks are so important – if you want to try 21 alcohol free days with online, community and audio support then just sign up for Accelerate I could really identify with Clive when he said he went to AA to see everyone chain smoking and talking about their rock bottoms and just didn't feel he fitted in! He just didn't feel like an alcoholic because he wasn't drinking in the morning, crashing cars, losing jobs etc The thing is we don't have to wait until we hit “rock bottom” before we make a change Like most of us Clive tried “moderation” and we agreed that our “drinking neural pathway” will always be there so once you've crossed a line with your drinking moderation is no longer an option. Clive talked about being triggered by a sunny day and the thought of drinking rose – he has a sensible approach to his triggers – he just recognizes them, gets a bit curious about them and then lets them pass without acting on them One way of dealing with those triggers is to create another ritual to replace it – for example if Clive started enjoying a glass on AF bubbly everytime he sat drinking in the sunshine then his subconscious would gradually create a new and less harmful trigger. Clive's Madonna Story was a classic example of how we expect alcohol to enhance our experiences – in Clive's case he ended up almost blacking out and missing most of a concert he'd been looking forward to for months! Clive has made the joyful discovery that “Clive doesn't need alcohol to be Clive” – he can still be the life and soul of the party when stone cold sober! 11 months into his sobriety Clive feels he's regained control of his life and reduced his anxiety -he feels strong and is proud to be alcohol Clive ended our interview by reading his stunning Goodbye to Alcohol letter which he found a powerful and cathartic experience Just go to tribesober.com and hit the "join our tribe" button to read more about the benefits of membership More info Subscription membership for Tribe Sober join up HERE To access our website click HERE If you would like a free copy of our "Annual Tracker" or our e-book "66 Days to Sobriety" please email janet@tribesober.com If you would like to come to our Saturday afternoon Zoom Cafe as a guest and meet our community just email janet@tribesober.com Help us to spread the word!

Welcome to Design Business Freedom. I'm Melissa Galt, and in this fan-favorite episode, you'll hear the personal story behind my journey from an unfulfilling career and overwhelming debt to building a successful interior design business in Atlanta. You'll discover how passion, persistence, resourcefulness, education, and smart business systems can help you create opportunities even when your circumstances are far from ideal. Building a profitable interior design firm does not require a perfect beginning, unlimited capital, or complete confidence. This episode explores how I overcame imposter syndrome, started my business earlier than planned while $70,000 in debt, generated visibility through teaching, and eventually developed the marketing engines, systems, and processes that helped my revenue outperform that of many of my peers. In This Episode You Will Learn: Recognize when you are following someone else's expectations instead of pursuing the career and business you truly want. Reframe selling as educating clients about value so you can confidently recommend the right design solutions without pressure or manipulation. Use teaching, community involvement, and strategic visibility to attract potential interior design clients and build name recognition. Create systems, processes, and marketing engines that allow your interior design business to operate more efficiently and profitably. Apply the lessons from Design Business Freedom to move beyond imposter syndrome, take decisive action, and build a business around your creative strengths. While one word can truly grow your profits, mastering more will lead to a full business and personal transformation. Get them all in my book "The Language of Success: 35 Words to Boost Your Worth and Wealth". You'll be pleasantly surprised at the effectiveness of these word swaps and the increased confidence you'll feel in business and life.

What keeps a faith vibrant after four decades of ministry? That unexpected question, asked by a young church leader in Baltimore after a discussion on archaeology and the early church, became the catalyst for one of the most important chapters I've written in Missiological Theology. In this episode of The 10-Minute Ephesiologist, I explore what I have come to call missiological spirituality—a way of life that begins not with spiritual practices alone, but with the Triune God who continually speaks and acts. Rather than reducing spirituality to knowledge, experience, or ministry activity, I propose a rhythm of curiosity, discovery, reflection, wonder, and participation that draws us ever deeper into God's perichoretic life and mission. If you've ever wondered why some faith grows stale while other faith remains vibrant, this conversation may help you ask two life-changing questions: What is God saying? What is God doing? Keywords: missiological spirituality, missiology, Triune God, Trinity, perichoresis, perichoretic mission, missiological theology, curiosity, discovery, reflection, wonder, participation, spiritual formation, Christian spirituality, theology, archaeology, New Testament archaeology, archaeology and the Bible, ecclesiology, mission of God, missio Dei, discipleship, church planting, theological education, discernment, God speaks, God acts, Kingdom of God, early church, Ephesiology, Michael T. Cooper Key Takeaways Why one simple question in Baltimore reshaped my understanding of spirituality. Why spirituality must begin with the missionary nature of the Triune God. How God's self-revelation through His words and His works forms the foundation of Christian spirituality. The fivefold rhythm of Curiosity → Discovery → Reflection → Wonder → Participation. Why theology without wonder becomes intellectualism. Why wonder without participation becomes emotionalism. Why ministry itself can become mechanical if it is no longer sustained by ongoing curiosity about God's activity. How archaeology, Scripture, culture, and everyday life continually invite us to discern God's presence and mission. Why the Christian life is best understood not as a ladder to climb, but as a lifelong spiral into deeper communion with God and fuller participation in His mission.

Pick up Dr. Cooper’s latest book Religions, politics, and education shaped the cultural world of Asia Minor where a new faith emerged that would change history. Gods, Emperors, Philosophers, and a New Movement uncovers how the earliest Christians navigated—and often disrupted and adapted—the dominant forces of their age. Drawing on decades of research, fieldwork, and teaching, Michael T. Cooper takes readers beneath the surface of Ephesos, Smyrna, Pergamon, and other cities to reveal how temples, inscriptions, and civic spaces illuminate the missionary impulse of the first Christians. Far from being silent, the archaeological record testifies to their resilience, creativity, and bold proclamation of the gospel in a world saturated with competing loyalties. This is more than history. By examining how the early church encountered powerful religious traditions, political ideologies, and systems of education, today's missionaries and church leaders gain fresh vision for gospel engagement in their own pluralistic and contested contexts. The dynamics that shaped mission in the first centuries—identity, power, worldview, and cultural disruption—remain central to how the good news advances today. This book is an invitation to rediscover the mission of God in the archaeological record and to discern its enduring relevance for faithful witness in the twenty-first century.

In this winsome study, Ephesiology offers readers a comprehensive view of the empowering work of the Holy Spirit in the most significant city of the New Testament, and compels us to ask the question: how can we effectively connect Christ to our culture? “Masterfully handling the book of Ephesians and using its content as a definitive guide, Michael Cooper lays a theologically strong foundation that is both corrective and directive to disciple making movements. The principles he gleans from the book of Ephesians and related texts, help to ensure the on-going multiplication and maturation of a movement.
