Send me a DM here (it doesn't let me respond), OR email me: imagineabetterworld2020@gmail.comToday I'm honored to have back on the show for a special joint episode: Humanitarians, warriors of injustice, systemic child abuse whistleblowers and survivor advocates, podcast regulars, my dear friends, and heroes to humanity: Dr. Juliette Engel and Kevin AnnettAs many of you know by now, Juliette and Kevin stand as towering figures in the fight for justice and healing for survivors of systemic abuse, their lives interwoven by a shared mission to expose hidden atrocities and empower those silenced by trauma. Both have faced personal and professional trials, transforming their own experiences of adversity into powerful platforms for advocacy. Through their courage, compassion, and unrelenting dedication, they have become beacons of hope, challenging institutional corruption and amplifying the voices of survivors worldwide.A little recap about our guests and their overlapping missions that we will be discussing more about today: While Juliette and Kevin's paths differ - Juliette's rooted in personal survival of mind control and trafficking, Kevin's in uncovering institutional genocide - their advocacy converges in a shared commitment to exposing systemic abuse and empowering survivors. Both have confronted powerful institutions, from intelligence agencies to churches and governments, revealing how these entities perpetuate cycles of child and human exploitation. Juliette's hands-on rescue efforts in Russia complement Kevin's legal and public advocacy in Canada, each tackling different facets of the same global issue: the trafficking and abuse of vulnerable populations under the guise of institutional authority. Their work is unified by a compassionate approach to survivors. Juliette's Angel Coalition provided tangible escape routes, offering safety and repatriation, while Kevin's tribunals and writings amplify survivors' stories, fostering healing through truth-telling. Both recognize the multi-generational nature of trauma - Juliette tracing her family's involvement in intelligence operations, Kevin's exposing the historical roots of colonial abuse. Their courage in facing personal danger, from Juliettes's brushes with Russian mafia to Kevin's ostracism, underscores their shared belief that silence enables abuse. Their personal sacrifices fuel a unified mission: dismantling oppression and fostering healing. Through books, tribunals, and grassroots efforts, they inspire hope, urging communities to protect the vulnerable and demand justice.CONNECT WITH JULIETTE: Website: https://julietteengel.com/CONNECT WITH KEVIN: Email: angelfire101@protonmail.comPhone: 289-680-8724 Websites: -Republic of Kanata: https://republicofkanata.org/-Radio Free Kanata: https://bbsradio.com/radiofreekanata-'Murder by Decree' & other books published by Kevin: https://murderbydecree.com/#books -'Unrepentant' Documentary: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Czej73SfYJcCONNECT WITH THE IMAGINATION:EMAIL: imagineabetterworld2020@gmail.comMy Substack: https://emmakatherine.substack.com/BUY ME A COFFEE: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/theimaginationAll links: https://direct.me/theimaginationpodcastRIFE TECHNOLOGIES: https://realrifetechnology.Support the show

Feeling exhausted and can't figure out why? The answer might be hiding in your gut and mitochondria. In this eye-opening episode of Menopause Mastery, Dr. Betty Murray sits down with functional medicine expert Laura Frontiero to uncover the real root causes behind midlife energy crashes. If you're tired of being told "it's just your age" or searching for that one magic solution, this conversation will change everything. Laura shares her journey from 20+ years in traditional healthcare to becoming a detective for chronic health issues, revealing why your energy problems aren't just about hormones—they're about your gut terrain, mitochondrial function, and toxic load that's been building for decades. Discover why that trendy carnivore diet might be helping you now but could backfire later, how infections like Candida and H. pylori are actually trying to protect you from heavy metals, and why you absolutely must support your detox pathways BEFORE trying to kill off bad bacteria. Plus, Dr. Betty and Laura tackle the controversial topic of when to start hormone therapy (spoiler: you don't have to "earn" your hormones!) and why the order of healing matters more than you think. If you're a woman in midlife struggling with fatigue, brain fog, or mysterious symptoms that conventional medicine can't explain, this episode gives you the roadmap to reclaim your energy and health. Key Topics Covered: Why your gut terrain matters more than which bacteria you have The hidden connection between toxins and chronic infections Mitochondria: your cellular powerhouses and why they're failing The right order for healing (hint: start with pooping!) When and why to start hormone therapy Why detox is a marathon, not a weekend cleanse Links: Get Laura's FREE Midlife Energy Crisis Report: https://midlifeenergycrisis.com/ Menrva Telemedicine: https://gethormonesnow.com/ FREE Hormone Quiz: https://bit.ly/3wNJOec Living Well Dallas: https://www.livingwelldallas.com/ Hormone Reset: https://hormonereset.net/ Betty Murray Website: https://www.bettymurray.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BettyAMurrayCN/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drbettymurray/   Connect with Dr. Betty Murray: Website: https://www.bettymurray.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BettyAMurrayCN/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drbettymurray/   Connect with Laura Frontiero: https://www.instagram.com/laura.frontiero https://laurafrontiero.com/   Thank you for listening to Menopause Mastery.

Start Your Transformation Now  In this episode of the Jim Fortin Podcast, Jim shares an intimate and powerful conversation with Don Xavier, a sorcerer and spiritual teacher, about the concept of cosmic seniority. Through personal anecdotes and ancient wisdom, Jim explains that we are not just passive beings in a chaotic world—we are divine co-creators with the universe itself. Drawing from a dinner dialogue with Don avier, this episode explores the immense creative and healing power that lives within us, and how we unknowingly give it away to external forces like fear, ego, and the 3D world. Jim breaks down what it means to reclaim our seniority—the energetic authority we carry as conscious souls on this planet. He dives into how dis-ease begins in the mind, how modern medicine often strips us of our power, and why it's vital to recognize that we are in charge of our reality. Whether you're navigating a health crisis, financial difficulty, or spiritual confusion, this episode will remind you that you already have everything within you to transform your life—if you learn to manage your energy and remember who you truly are. If you've ever felt disconnected from your purpose, your health, or your power—this episode is your call to remember. It's time to stop giving your energy away and start living from your cosmic seniority. What You'll Discover in This Episode:  Don Xavier on Disease and Divine Intelligence (03:00) Illness begins in the mind and manifests in the body—your health is a reflection of your harmony with the universe.  The Power of Seniority and Energetic Responsibility (10:00) Your energy is your power, and reclaiming it is the key to healing, creating, and living fully.  Why You Are on This Planet but Not of This Planet (13:30) Understanding your divine origin shifts how you approach life, fear, and your sense of belonging.  How Modern Medicine Can Strip Away Your Power (18:00) Jim shares how giving seniority to doctors and institutions can limit healing and keep us in “mediocrity.”  We're Always Creating—Even as Newborns (16:30) You are a creator from birth, and your energy impacts others and yourself from the start.  Matter Creates Matter—And Why That's Empowering (26:00) You can shape your physical reality when you consciously co-create with the universe through your energy.  Listen, apply, and enjoy!  Transformational Takeaway  You are not here to surrender your power to external forces—you are here to master it. The universe lives within you, in your organs, in your consciousness, and in your ability to choose. Every moment, you're either evolving or devolving. The difference? Your awareness of your seniority. You are the artist of your life, painting with the brush of divine intelligence. So choose presence over panic, soul over struggle, and power over passivity. Life is not happening to you—it's happening through you.

“To be an effective climate optimist and person who cares about sustainability, you need equal parts of two different ingredients. The first is inspiration, because if you don't believe you can make a difference, and if you don't believe that what you do matters, then you're not going to try. You also need the other ingredient of empowerment. If you are really, really encouraged to try to make a difference, but you're not given the tools or the knowledge, then all that energy dissipates and becomes wasted.” —Charlie Sellars   What if sustainability wasn't a burden, but an invitation? For too long, we've been told to shrink our impact and feel guilty for not doing enough. But what if the real power lies in small, positive choices that actually feel good and make a difference?  Charlie Sellars, the Director of Sustainability at Microsoft and author of What We Can Do: A Climate Optimist's Guide to Sustainable Living, has spent his career turning eco-anxiety into practical, empowering action. His journey proves that you don't need to be perfect—or even an expert—to make sustainability work for your life, your business, and your happiness. Tune in as Justine and Charlie break down how to reframe sustainability from a source of stress into a source of strength, sharing real-life stories, actionable tips, and a new way to think about your impact—one that's positive, empowering, and actually doable. Meet Charlie:  Charlie Sellars is a Director of Sustainability at Microsoft, which pledged to become Carbon Negative, Water Positive, Zero Waste, and Protect Ecosystems by 2030.

In this episode of American Potential, guest Austen Bannon, employment policy fellow at Americans for Prosperity, breaks down two urgent issues costing Americans time, opportunity, and tax dollars: outdated rules that make it nearly impossible to fire underperforming federal workers, and laws that prevent gig workers from getting the portable benefits they need. Austen explains how commonsense reforms—like simplifying the process for removing federal employees who aren't doing their jobs—could save taxpayers millions and restore accountability in government. He also shares how states like Utah, Tennessee, and Alabama are pioneering voluntary portable benefits programs that allow independent contractors to pool resources for health care and retirement, giving them greater freedom and security in the modern economy. Learn how modernizing these rules can empower workers, foster innovation, and ensure our government works better for everyone. Join us for a practical conversation on cutting red tape, expanding opportunity, and unleashing the potential of America's dynamic workforce.
