In this compelling episode of the Secret Life Podcast, host Brianne Davis-Gantt confronts the often misunderstood concept of enabling in the context of addiction. With her characteristic honesty and humor, Brianne sheds light on how enabling behaviors can mask deeper emotional discomfort and perpetuate the cycle of addiction. She shares her insights from years of personal experience in recovery and her work with others, emphasizing that enabling is not an act of love but a misguided attempt to exert control over a loved one's addiction.Throughout the episode, Brianne outlines the signs of enabling, including making excuses for a loved one's behavior, prioritizing their needs over your own, and feeling anxious when unable to help. She passionately argues that true support for an addict requires setting boundaries and allowing them to face the consequences of their actions. Listeners will learn practical steps to break the cycle of enabling, such as empowering loved ones to take responsibility for themselves, reframing financial support, and prioritizing personal well-being.This episode serves as a crucial reminder that recovery is a personal journey and that sometimes the most loving thing we can do is to step back and allow our loved ones to confront their challenges head-on. Join Brianne as she navigates the complexities of enabling and offers hope for healthier relationships and personal growth.
FRANKOPAN3.mp3 - The Roman Warm Period, Extractive Empires, and the Role of the Horse Peter Frankopan | The Earth Transformed: An Untold History The Roman Warm Period provided Rome with 300 years of environmental stability, enabling expansion and reliable economic planning. All empires are extractive powers, conquering land for resources and minerals. This stability ended abruptly in the 230s AD, ushering in decades of political crisis. The horse played a crucial, respected role, providing speed and military advantage through chariots. Central Asian nomads mastered horse breeding. The Huns exploited this mobility to dismantle the Roman Empire by breaking connections and causing rapid bureaucratic collapse. The source emphasizes that large empires are inherently brittle; single shocks like drought can shatter trade, leading to food shortages, compromised immune systems, and collapse.

What's the potential and current impact of AI for the creative industries? I spoke with Joaquin Cuenca, co-founder and CEO of Freepik, about their suite of AI tools and their role in enhancing human creativity. And, Alexia Adana, Creative Director at Edelman, who elaborates on how she combines AI with human creativity for clients and her own artistic endeavors. Enjoy, and please share this episode - out just in time for #InternationalPodcastDay! Joaquin emphasizes that AI should be seen as a supportive tool to elevate creative processes, rather than a replacement for human creators. He argues, 'We are the sum of our experiences. And that makes us unique.' He explains the benefits of Freepik's tools for reducing the time needed to execute creative ideas... but stresses the irreplicability of humans based on our individuality, even as AI continues to advance. Basically, AI is a tool for creators, not a replacement, because AI cannot replicate unique human experiences. Following this, Alexia highlights the significance of human artistry and personal storytelling in using AI tools to generate immersive and engaging experiences. She points out “in the world of copyright with AI you have to show human authorship. So if you're creating a story or a film that's a hundred percent generated by AI, you can't copyright or trademark that. So, I'm documenting my whole process – showing where it's from my vision, it's from my sketches.” The conversation concludes with the vision of a synergistic future where AI tools enhance creative processes without devaluing the human touch.

A Journey Toward Self-Transcendent Leadership In January 2023, I began a long-term goal to earn a Master's degree. Initially, my intentions were to learn, grow, and yes, to "check that box" that I had a Master's degree. While I did all three of those things, earning my degree in December 2024, what really happened is that I examined my leadership, who I was, who I was becoming, how I impacted others around me, and how I wanted to lead for the rest of my career. As I look back, I learned that enabling others to thrive was a core part of self-transcendent leadership. When I enrolled in the Gonzaga University Master's of Organizational Leadership program, I would not have described myself as selfish. Yet through my coursework and reflections, I learned I had several self-embedded leadership behaviors. As I looked more closely, I learned that these behaviors stifle or inhibit others' growth and development. By learning how to be more self-transcendent, focusing on others, and the greater good of the organization and people, a few things happened. Firstly, I became a more effective leader. Secondly, I enjoyed work more. Thirdly, I experienced more positive organizational outcomes. In this episode of the PCS to Corporate America Podcast, I share some of my journey, explain why being self-transcendent is so important and necessary, and the steps we can take immediately to be less selfish and more serving of others and our organizations. Self-Transcendent Leadership: Going Beyond Yourself In transitioning from the military to a business leadership role, it's easy to focus on personal goals—promotions, achievements, recognition. These are not bad. However, as leaders, our greatest impact comes when we go beyond ourselves. Self-transcendent leadership, inspired by Viktor Frankl's Man's Search for Meaning, means pursuing purpose beyond personal gain—serving others, creating excellence for its own sake, and finding meaning even in challenges. Why It Matters In Business We all live and work within organizations: companies, teams, boards, and communities. Leaders profoundly shape whether these organizations enable people to flourish or become stifling. In our work organizations, where we spend most of our waking hours, leaders have a duty to create environments where team members feel valued, engaged, and able to use their talents. This responsibility is especially critical for those making the leap from military service, where purpose and camaraderie are deeply ingrained. Practical Ways to Lead Beyond Yourself Self-transcendence doesn't require grand gestures—it's built in everyday moments. For example: Be present in conversations. Show genuine curiosity about your teammates. Smile and greet people each morning. Offer a word of encouragement or practical help, like bringing someone coffee. And when tough decisions arise—such as giving candid feedback or reorganizing a team—lead with honesty, kindness, and a commitment to the other person's long-term good. Questions to Guide Your Journey To Self-Transcendent Leadership Ask yourself: How do I want others to be different because of my leadership? What do I need to let go of to lead for others, not just myself? As Frankl wrote, “It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expects from us.” In your transition to business, consider—what does your organization expect of you right now, and how can you answer with leadership that transcends self-interest? The Cameron-Brooks Mission Our mission at Cameron-Brooks is to help guide officers through the transition and accompany them along the journey to de-risk the process of transitioning to the civilian world and help them reach their goals. We aim to equip JMOs with the tools and the necessary reflection and preparation required to successfully transition into leadership developmental roles that will allow them to use their talents and skills to lead teams and organiza...

Are you helping… or are you enabling? It's not always easy to tell the difference, especially in our closest relationships. In this episode of The Friendship Tour, we're closing out the 3-part Strong Friend series with a conversation that gets right to the heart of support, accountability, boundaries, and the weight of “superwoman” expectations. My guest, Latasha Kennedy (founder of Girlfriends Thriving), joins me to discuss the tension strong friends face when their care crosses into enabling—and how we can recognize the signs in ourselves and in others. Together, we talk about: ✨ The difference between helping and enabling (and why intent isn't the same as impact) ✨ The roles accountability and boundaries play in helping without enabling ✨ Why strong women must learn to let others in, embracing humanity instead of superhero status ✨ How to support the strong friends in your life with practical questions, real listening, and intentional presence If you've ever been the “go-to” friend who feels the weight of everyone else's needs—or if you love someone who carries that weight—you won't want to miss this conversation.
Christopher SpragueLeadership Consultant Enabling Organizations and People to Be Their Best.Chris' leadership model isn't what you'd expect.It isn't a Fortune 100 executive or a hardworking manager who encouraged him to be his best. It was his high school math teacher, who inspired greatness in students and enabled them to achieve far more than expected.Why do some leaders inspire greatness, while others create toxic or stagnant environment? While leadership models abound, poor management and unhealthy workplaces are common, stifling the potential of people and organizations. Why did a high school teacher succeed where so many business leaders fall short?To find out Chris surveyed hundreds of people about their most powerful and positive leadership experiences. A clear pattern emerged: stories of inspirational leaders who brought out their best did occur but were uncommon in the workplace. Chris seeks to reveal what drives inspirational leadership and how it empowers individuals, teams, and organizations to achieve more than they thought possible, in a healthy, sustainable way.Want to be a guest on Book 101 Review?

In this episode of B2B Sales Trends, Harry Kendlbacher speaks with Ari Capogeannis, Senior Director of Enterprise Revenue Marketing at NVIDIA, about how to move from data to deals — enabling sales with precision, not promises. Ari explains why the old lead-based funnel no longer works and how buying groups have become the real driver of enterprise sales. He shares how to help sellers cut through complexity, use AI in ways that actually add value, and execute consistently at the customer interface. Along the way, he highlights why human connection still matters and the top three qualities elite sellers need to thrive in today's environment. Inside the conversation: - Why lead funnels fall short, and how to orchestrate around buying groups. - How to enable sellers to act on the right accounts and contacts without adding complexity. - Where AI improves go-to-market efforts — and where it doesn't. - Why breaking down silos and leading with data is key to aligning global teams. If you want practical insights on turning data into impact — and driving execution in even the most complex organizations — this episode is one you won't want to miss.
For decades, the command line has been a developer's staple. But what if its future isn't to be a better terminal, but something else entirely? We're joined by Zach Lloyd, co-founder of Warp, to discuss this groundbreaking shift in developer tooling, sharing his bold vision that the future for developers is neither the IDE nor the terminal, but a new kind of platform built for launching and orchestrating AI agents. Zach explains how Warp is re-imagining the command line as the natural entry point for this evolution, transforming it from a place where you type commands to a place where you write prompts to solve complex problems.Zach dives into the new developer workflow, where the focus moves up a layer of abstraction from the minutiae of flags and syntax to higher-level problem-solving and guiding agents. He argues that by being the platform itself—not just an app running within it—a tool like Warp can provide a far richer and more effective user experience than traditional CLI agents.

In this episode of Wake Up, Look Up, Pastor Zach tackles the growing trend of parents financially supporting their adult children well into their 30s. He explains how enabling dependency delays maturity and undermines God's design for work, responsibility, and growth. Instead of allowances for adults, Pastor Zach calls parents to raise children who are resourceful, responsible, and prepared to stand on their own before God.Have an article you'd like Pastor Zach to discuss?

You step in to help, ease your kid's struggles, but is your help actually helpful or is it keeping your struggling teen or young adult from making the changes they need most? You want the best for them, but how can you influence internal change?It's a painful truth many parents don't realize: sometimes “help” becomes enabling. By rescuing your struggling teen from discomfort, whether through financial support, extra comforts, or stepping in to soften the consequences, you may unintentionally be preventing the internal accountability that fuels real, lasting change.In this conversation, Seth and I unpack how easy it is to blur the line between helping and enabling, why it happens, and how you can shift toward offering the kind of support that encourages your teen to take ownership of their choices.In this episode on helping vs. enabling your struggling teen, we discuss:How parents unknowingly provide comforts that block internal change;Why lasting transformation only happens when teens feel consequences;The emotional toll on parents who “rescue” and how to handle it;Red flags that signal you might be enabling instead of supporting;What true support looks like and why it often feels so hard;And much more.Looking for support?

Louis Ruggiero grew up in New York City with privilege and connections — his mother, Rosanna Scotto, is a famous Fox News anchor, and his father is an attorney. But behind the perfect image, Louis was spiraling into addiction. College introduced him to Xanax, which quickly led to harder drugs, arrests, and trouble that was often swept away by his family's influence. His life took a shocking turn when a close friend confessed a murder to him, forcing Louis to testify in a high-profile trial. In this interview, Louis reveals his struggles with drugs, what it was like to be caught up in a murder case, and how he's working to turn his life around. #LouisRuggiero #RosannaScotto #AddictionRecovery #MurderTrial #DrugAddiction #NYCStories #TrueCrimePodcast #lockedinpodcast Connect with Louis Ruggiero: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@NothingsOffTheTable Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nothingsoffpod/?hl=en TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@nothingsoffpod Website: https://linktr.ee/nothingsoffthetable Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ Presented by Tyson 2.0 & Wooooo Energy: https://tyson20.com/ https://woooooenergy.com/ Use code LOCKEDIN for 20% OFF Wooooo Energy Buy Merch: http://www.ianbick.com/shop Timestamps: 00:00 A Dark Confession and Introduction 00:52 Meet Lewis: Background and Podcast 02:26 Twelve Years of Chaos 03:03 Growing Up Privileged in New York 04:42 Life with a Famous Mother 06:26 Spotlight Pressure and Acting Out 08:18 Rebellion and Early Signs 10:24 Parents' Presence and Family Dynamics 11:37 The Straight-Laced Sister 12:29 Making Amends and Lifelong Change 13:10 Hazy Future Plans and Pressure 14:31 High School Troubles and Africa Experience 16:03 Xanax: The Real Start of Addiction 17:56 Family History and the Addictive Personality 18:33 Barstar: College, Drugs, and Escalation 19:23 Interventions and Denial 20:54 Deceit, Probation, and Court-Ordered Programs 23:18 A Violent Encounter and New Addictions 24:22 Losing Friends and Facing the Law 26:06 White Privilege and Justice 27:41 Revolving Door of Addiction and Jail 28:58 Relapse and Deeper Descent 30:32 Confession of a Murder 35:01 After the Confession: Investigation and Fallout 39:05 Rock Bottom and Family Intervention 41:03 Rehab, FBI Subpoena, and Trial 44:52 Testifying in a Murder Case 47:56 Staying Sober Through Chaos 48:55 Falling Back and the Battle for Sobriety 49:54 Daily Recovery Work and Lasting Change 51:01 Living Amends and Generational Healing 54:05 Enabling, Gambling, and Hard Lessons 57:04 Gambling: Vegas, Apps, and Addiction 01:00:32 Reflection: Parental Trust and Actions 01:03:32 Integrity, Character, and Redemption 01:05:00 Advice to My Younger Self 01:05:16 Wrapping Up and Looking Ahead Powered by: Just Media House : https://www.justmediahouse.com/ Creative direction, design, assets, support by FWRD: https://www.fwrd.co Learn more about your ad choices.

Send us a text! (add your email to get a response) When does our help cross the line from supportive to harmful for our loved ones with mental health challenges? In this episode we dive deep into the complex dynamics of "unintentional reinforcement," a less judgmental term for "enabling" that acknowledges how our best intentions can sometimes backfire.Drawing from personal experiences with addiction, depression, and avoidance behaviors, we explore how our actions sometimes shield our loved ones from the very consequences that might motivate change. Whether it's financially supporting a partner who refuses to work, making excuses for someone's alcohol abuse, or accommodating anxiety-driven avoidance, these patterns can gradually trap both parties in cycles that feel impossible to break.What makes these situations particularly challenging is when we feel stuck between either "enabling" destructive behaviors or dealing with other consequences. When we point out the problem, they often retreat further into problematic behaviors. Through practical examples and psychological insights, we discuss strategies for shifting these dynamics without abandoning those we love.We highlight that boundaries aren't selfish- they're necessary. By intentionally encouraging healthy behaviors while allowing natural consequences for unhealthy ones, we can boost motivation for positive change. And by recognizing when our own needs for caretaking or control might be part of the problem, we gain the clarity to make difficult but loving choices.Ready to transform your relationship with someone struggling with mental health or addiction?

This week on The Intercept Briefing, newsroom counsel and correspondent Shawn Musgrave speaks with professor and attorney Leah Litman and politics reporter Jessica Washington about how the Supreme Court's right-wing supermajority is laying the legal foundation for unchecked executive lawlessness — and signaling to Trump that it won't stand in his way.

During Donald Trump's first term, the Supreme Court made some effort to check his power. But that era is over. The court has ruled that Trump cannot be prosecuted for actions he took as president, including for his role in the January 6 attack on the Capitol, and it just wrapped its latest term by restricting lower courts' power to block his unlawful orders on issues like birthright citizenship, abortion care, and immigrants' basic rights. “What the Supreme Court did is it limited lower courts' ability to use what has been the most effective tool that lower courts have to reign in the Trump administration's lawlessness, which is to block a policy on a nationwide basis,” says Leah Litman, author of the new book, “Lawless: How the Supreme Court Runs on Conservative Grievance, Fringe Theories, and Bad Vibes.” This week on The Intercept Briefing, newsroom counsel and correspondent Shawn Musgrave speaks with professor and attorney Litman and politics reporter Jessica Washington about how the Supreme Court's right-wing supermajority is laying the legal foundation for unchecked executive lawlessness — and signaling to Trump that it won't stand in his way.
