Apathy is one of the quieter struggles of the Christian life, less dramatic than crisis and therefore easier to ignore, but just as damaging to our relationship with God and our experience of the life He intends for us. Ephesians 5:13-14 names it with surprising directness: apathy is a form of spiritual sleep. And the call that follows is equally direct: "wake up, sleeper, rise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you." This is not a shaming command. It is a gentle invitation back into the light of Christ, where recovery becomes possible. When light enters a dark room, it reveals what was invisible before. In the same way, Christ's light illuminates the spiritual weariness, the draining habits, and the weighted thinking patterns that have quietly accumulated. It does not expose them to condemn; it exposes them so that renewal can begin. The path back does not require a dramatic overhaul. It begins with small steps: a little more rest, time outside, one verse of Scripture, a simple prayer. God meets us exactly where we are and gently guides us forward from there. Over time, as His light reaches further into every part of our lives, energy and motivation return, purpose becomes clearer, and what felt like spiritual numbness begins to give way to something alive again. Today's Bible Verse "Wake up, sleeper, rise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you."— Ephesians 5:14, NIV Ponder Today Christ's light reveals what the darkness concealed in order to renew. When we allow His light into our weariness and numbness, we begin to see what has been draining us, and that visibility is the first step toward healing. Burnout and apathy are signals that something needs care, not just discipline. God designed body, mind, and spirit to be connected, and all of them need rest and care. Addressing physical and mental health is part of answering the call to wake up. Small steps are enough to begin. God meets us exactly where we are and works with whatever we bring. Healing does not require a grand overhaul to begin. One verse of Scripture a day, a few minutes outside, a brief and honest prayer; start small, start somewhere. Christ's light, let in gradually, restores what apathy quietly stole. Energy, motivation, clarity of thought, and sense of purpose return as His light reaches further into our lives. Waking up is not a single moment; it is a direction we begin moving toward. A Prayer for You Today Dear God, You know how much I have struggled with apathy lately. I feel tired from dealing with all the challenges of this fallen world, overwhelmed by the constant noise, and burned out from the stress. I just do not care anymore about what You want me to care about. Please forgive me for settling for apathy and neglecting the full life You want me to live. I need Your help to answer the call to wake up and step into Your light. Shine Your light into every part of me — my spirit, mind, and body. Help me care for my wellbeing so I can heal and grow stronger. Restore my passion for knowing You and walking closely with You each day. As Your light fills my life again, renew my energy and motivation and guide me forward with hope. Thank You. Amen. Want More?

TABLE OF CONTENTS THE JOHN BATCHELOR SHOW 8-14-2026.Jeff Bliss discusses the severe threats posed by a potential "super El Niño," which could lead to massive coastal erosion, mudslides, and heavy rains in Los Angeles, similar to the damage seen in previous severe weather years. He also reports on active wildfires in California, such as the Timber Fire in Monterey County and the Bug Fire near the Nevada border, noting that humans cause roughly 90 to 95% of these blazes. Shifting to entertainment, Bliss describes the highly anticipated opening of the Lucas Museum of Narrative Art, which features the "Skywalker Grill"—a restaurant causing excitement among Los Angeles foodies for its Michelin-star potential. Additionally, Bliss covers the landmark $12.8 billion purchase of the Los Angeles Lakers by a group involving Jared Kushner and Bob Iger. Finally, he touches on the legal controversy surrounding the Paramount-Skydance merger and David Ellison's threat to move production out of Hollywood. (1)Gene Marks shares insights from White House advisor Kevin Hassett regarding the validity of government economic data, with Hassett favoring durable goods orders and unemployment claims over revised surveys. Marks reports a generally positive outlook for small businesses, citing an uptick in optimism and a four-year high in manufacturing activity driven by the AI and data center explosion. He notes that while tariffs and $4 gasoline remain concerns, many businesses are absorbing costs without significant impact on sales. Marks characterizes the United States as an "entrepreneur's paradise" because of the ease of starting a business and the high availability of capital. He highlights that nearly half a million new business applications are filed monthly, supported by record levels of private debt and venture capital. Marks concludes that despite various uncertainties, the small business sector remains resilient and is continuing to hire. (2)Jim McTague provides a report on the "mixed" economy of Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, observing that retail activity is picking up due to back-to-school shopping despite inflationary pressures. He notes that discount giants like Costco are packed as shoppers seek relief from high prices, while tourism traffic at local hotels and amusement parks has lightened midweek. McTague also highlights local opposition to data centers, making them a contentious political issue for upcoming elections. A central focus is the "Heritage Paris" patisserie at Park City Mall, where a French chef sells premium handcrafted pastries. McTague describes high-end offerings like the "Popcorn Illusion" pastry priced at $17.95, illustrating a market for luxury food even in a cautious economy. He humorously recounts his own difficulty resisting these treats while on a low-carb diet, emphasizing that the shop is a significant draw for local residents. (3)Lorenzo Fiori describes a "disaster" situation in Europe caused by severe drought and record heat, with water restrictions implemented in Swiss towns and critically low levels in northern Italy's Po River. The drought has turned the normally green Alps brown and disrupted lake navigation. Simultaneously, Sicily's Mount Etna has entered a prolonged eruption phase, spewing ash for seven days and forcing the cancellation of 700 flights at Catania airport during the peak tourist season. Fiori notes the chaos caused by tourists seeking "eruption selfies" in dangerous areas. For a cultural reprieve, he recommends the Bernina Express rail journey, which reaches the highest railway point in Europe. He also shares a traditional recipe for polenta with Gorgonzola cheese, paired with local Valtellina wine, though he expresses concern that the drought may soon impact milk production from Alpine cows. (4)Bob Zimmerman details the robotic mission by startup Catalyst to rescue NASA's Swift Space Telescope, utilizing innovative software to maneuver a servicing craft despite thruster failures. He highlights SpaceX's massive Starshipproduction line in Boca Chica, noting that four prototypes are ready for monthly launches and upcoming orbital refueling tests. Zimmerman also discusses Lockheed Martin's strategic investments in rocket startups like Firefly to secure launch capabilities. On the international front, he reports on Poland's successful protest against Starlink roaming restrictions and Vietnam's first satellite contract with an American company, SpaceX, signaling a shift toward U.S. ties. Additionally, Zimmerman covers the State Department's efforts to pull India away from Russian space partnerships and NASA's collaboration with the Department of Energy on nuclear propulsion for Mars. He concludes with breathtaking imagery of stars orbiting the Milky Way's central black hole. (5)Alex Wright, author of Empire of Ink: The Printers, Rogues, and Radicals Who Invented the American Newspaper, Part Two: Wright recounts the history of American newspapers, focusing on the Civil War's impact on journalism. He highlights George Smalley's groundbreaking combat reporting at Antietam, where Smalley wrote a vivid account on a night train to secure the "scoop of all scoops" for the Tribune. Wright also explores "soldier-published" newspapers that provided a slice of camp life and the origins of Stars and Stripes. Moving west, he describes the dangerous life of frontier editors, such as Mark Twain, who carried revolvers to defend against aggrieved readers and occasionally fled town to avoid duels. Wright explains how newspapers became "gold mines" by discovering the revenue potential of patent medicine advertising, which once accounted for half of all ads. He concludes by drawing parallels between the fragmented, anything-goes media landscape of the 19th century and today's digital era of content creators and AI. (6)Henry Sokolski examines the "Golden Dome," a proposed $185 billion space-based missile defense project that mirrors the Cold War-era SDI. He warns that the program's lack of transparency is "suicidal" for its funding, as Congress remains in the dark about its primary mission. Sokolski notes that while technology is closer to practicality than 40 years ago, current threats are often low-cost drones rather than intercontinental missiles. In the energy sector, he highlights Elon Musk's $10 billion "Project Crystal Sun" solar factory in Texas, which Musk frames as capturing the "fusion reactor" of the sun. Sokolski observes that even conservative states are voting with their pocketbooks for renewables as battery storage investments double. Finally, he touches on a mutual defense pact between Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Pakistan, suggesting a "Sunni NATO" is emerging due to a lack of confidence in U.S. security guarantees. (7)Angela DiFulvio explains a theoretical method for detecting nuclear weapons in low Earth orbit to prevent catastrophes like the 1962 Starfish Prime experiment, which destroyed a third of existing satellites. She describes an "inspector" satellite designed to induce a unique radioactive signature from fissile material using high-energy protons. DiFulvio details technical challenges, such as "pulse shape discrimination," to distinguish weapon-related neutrons from background cosmic radiation in the harsh space environment. She suggests that an international agency like the IAEAmight oversee these inspectors to ensure space remains weapon-free. DiFulvio emphasizes that while tests can occur in classified environments, more research is needed on the survivability of sensing electronics. She warns that a modern orbital nuclear detonation would be catastrophic for global infrastructure, specifically mentioning the vulnerability of massive constellations like Starlink. (8)

What happens when a journalist who hates the cold decides to spend three years immersing himself in one of the most extreme athletic subcultures on Earth? In this fascinating conversation, Darin sits down with award-winning journalist and author Chris Ballard to explore the world behind his book The Plunge. After a hip replacement at just 42 forced Chris to rethink his identity as an athlete, cold water initially became a tool for recovery. But curiosity eventually pulled him much deeper, from cold showers and plunges to competitive ice swimming in water below 41°F and ultimately representing the United States at the Ice Swimming World Championships. Together, Darin and Chris separate cold exposure hype from reality, explore what actually happens to the body in freezing water, and reveal why the greatest benefits Chris discovered weren't necessarily physical. They dive into resilience, emotional regulation, mental health, community, our increasingly comfortable modern lives, and why voluntarily doing difficult things may provide something many of us desperately need. What You'll Learn How a hip replacement at 42 led Chris into the world of cold exposure What officially qualifies as ice swimming and why 41°F is the threshold Which popular cold plunge benefits may be overhyped Why community became the most surprising theme of Chris's research How body composition and genetics influence cold tolerance The real dangers of extreme cold and the 1-10-1 survival rule How repeated cold exposure may train emotional regulation and resilience Why cultures in Finland and Denmark treat cold exposure completely differently than Americans How cold swimming has helped some people navigate grief, depression, and isolation Why deliberately doing hard things may matter more than ever in a world built around convenience Chapters 00:00:00 – Welcome to SuperLife 00:00:33 – Sponsor: Alkemis 00:03:24 – Introducing Chris Ballard and the world of cold water swimming 00:04:29 – The hip replacement that changed Chris's life at 42 00:05:40 – How NBA recovery techniques led him to cold exposure 00:07:34 – Going from cold plunges to competitive ice swimming 00:09:40 – Inside the extreme subculture of swimming below 41°F 00:11:01 – The challenge that convinced Chris to compete himself 00:12:17 – Ice swimming and the original spirit of the Winter Olympics 00:13:21 – How to safely begin training for cold exposure 00:15:14 – What officially qualifies as ice swimming? 00:16:20 – Separating cold plunge science from hype 00:17:15 – The most surprising benefit wasn't physical 00:18:05 – Why cold swimming creates such powerful community 00:19:29 – Cold exposure, loneliness, and human connection 00:20:45 – Sponsor: Shakeology 00:22:33 – Why actually getting in the water changed Chris's reporting 00:23:47 – The surprising body type advantage in cold water 00:25:19 – Grandmothers, elite athletes, and the mental side of ice swimming 00:26:09 – When cold water becomes genuinely dangerous 00:27:02 – The 1-10-1 rule for surviving cold water 00:29:41 – Chris attempts an ice kilometer 00:30:28 – Has modern comfort made us weaker? 00:32:19 – Why Finland laughs at America's cold plunge protocols 00:33:36 – The cold plunge benefits that may be overhyped 00:35:51 – Can you train your body to generate heat? 00:36:51 – Anticipatory thermogenesis and extreme cold adaptation 00:38:12 – How three years of cold exposure changed Chris's body 00:39:44 – Training emotional regulation through voluntary discomfort 00:40:48 – Building resilience one difficult moment at a time 00:42:02 – Why modern life is starving us of accomplishment 00:44:13 – AI, shortcuts, and why difficult work still matters 00:46:30 – Why Chris believes experiential storytelling can't be replaced 00:48:55 – The extraordinary people Chris discovered while writing The Plunge 00:49:57 – Cold water, grief, and finding a reason to keep moving 00:50:52 – How cold swimming became a mental health lifeline 00:52:09 – A global community united by challenge 00:53:51 – What Chris's cold exposure routine looks like today 00:54:27 – Why swimming may be the perfect lifelong sport 00:55:05 – Making the U.S. Ice Swimming National Team 00:56:05 – Could ice swimming become an Olympic sport? 00:57:17 – Why swimming through freezing water feels completely different 00:58:01 – Cold water forces you completely into the present moment 00:58:29 – Cold swimming, men's mental health, and escaping your thoughts 00:59:13 – What's next for Chris Ballard 00:59:35 – Accomplishment versus scrolling 01:00:00 – Final thoughts and making cold exposure accessible Thank You to Our Sponsors Alkemis: Go to https://alkemispaint.com/ and use code DARIN10 for 10% off your order.

Aug 12, 2026 – Energy expert Mark Mills at the National Center for Energy Analytics upends conventional wisdom in this must-hear Financial Sense Newshour conversation with Jim Puplava—one that could reshape how you think about...

When your body begins changing during perimenopause and menopause, the fitness industry's answer is usually predictable:Eat less.Cut the carbs.Skip breakfast.Fast longer.Do more cardio.But what if eating less isn't actually the strategy your body needs?In Part 3 of Menopause in the Light, Coach Alex Van Houten turns to nutrition—and challenges the idea that midlife health is simply about making the number on the scale smaller.Menopause changes physiology, but it doesn't erase physiology. Energy balance still matters. But so do muscle mass, protein intake, sleep, training, insulin sensitivity, food quality, recovery, and the hormonal changes influencing where and how your body stores fat.The goal isn't just weight loss.The goal is to build and maintain a woman who is strong, capable, metabolically healthy, resilient, well-nourished, and ready to serve.In this episode, Coach Alex breaks down:Why dramatically cutting calories can backfire during menopauseThe difference between weight loss and improving body compositionWhy protein becomes increasingly important as women ageA practical strategy for getting enough protein throughout the dayWhy carbohydrates aren't the enemyThe difference between food and fuelHow whole, nutrient-dense foods can simplify your nutritionFiber, calcium, vitamin D, healthy fats, and bone healthIntermittent fasting and when it may—or may not—serve youWhy breakfast can be a powerful opportunity for better nutritionAlcohol, sleep, and taking an honest inventory of your habitsCreatine and supplements during menopauseIron considerations during perimenopauseWhy you should be skeptical of products promising to “balance your hormones”How husbands and families can support women without becoming the “food police”A biblical perspective on food, gratitude, self-control, and stewardshipCoach Alex also offers a simple framework for building meals:Start with protein. Add plants. Add fuel according to your activity. Pay attention to your fats.Nothing exotic. Nothing magical.Just a repeatable strategy that can still work next year.As 1 Corinthians 10:31 reminds us: “Whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all for the glory of God.”Food isn't God.Food isn't the enemy. It's provision—and something we are called to receive with gratitude and steward with wisdom.TAKE THE NEXT STEPIf you're navigating perimenopause or menopause and know it's time to make a change, Coach Alex wants to help you identify where you are now and what deserves your attention first.Go to: faithfulfitness.co/menopauseComplete the Faithful Fitness Assessment and claim your seat for the upcoming live seminar.You'll learn how to take your current starting point and build a practical plan for getting meaningful results over the next 30 days—without miracle supplements, crash diets, or internet gimmicks.Take the assessment and reserve your seat: faithfulfitness.co/menopauseNext week: Menopause in the Light, Part 4 — hormone replacement therapy, sleep, sexual health, supplements, peptides, medical care, and how to know when it's time to ask for more help.Train hard.

Carbon 60, Mitochondria and Recovery: Can C60 Support the Aging Athlete? | Ken Swartz Could Carbon 60 support mitochondrial function, cellular energy, exercise recovery and healthy aging—or are some of the claims ahead of the human research? In this episode of The Coach Debbie Potts Show, I sit down with longtime C60 researcher and C60 Power co-founder Ken Swartz, also known as "Ken the Scientist." Ken explains what Carbon 60 is, why its soccer-ball-shaped molecular structure is unique and how C60 is proposed to interact with oxidative stress at the cellular and mitochondrial levels. We explore: What Carbon 60 is and how it may work Oxidative stress, free radicals and mitochondrial health Why oxidative stress can be both damaging and an essential biological signal The proposed role of C60 as an SOD and catalase mimic Exercise-induced oxidative stress, peroxynitrite and muscle soreness Potential applications for energy, performance and recovery Whether C60 could interfere with beneficial exercise adaptations Proposed connections to cellular aging, senescent cells, stem cells and telomeres Reported effects on hormones and endocrine function Animal research frequently cited in discussions about C60 and longevity The difference between laboratory findings, animal research, personal reports and proven human outcomes Product purity, oil carriers, third-party testing, timing and safety Why supplements cannot replace nutrition, sleep, movement, stress regulation and recovery This conversation is especially relevant for middle-aged athletes and high performers who are training hard but experiencing slower recovery, persistent soreness, reduced energy or declining resilience. The bigger question is not simply, "How do we eliminate oxidative stress?" We need some oxidative stress to create the signals that stimulate repair and adaptation. The real goal is to improve our capacity to respond to stress, recover from it and return to balance. Foundations create the signals. Signals drive adaptation. Adaptation builds resilience.

Tell us what you think of the show! It's been a rough summer for soft serve ice cream cone enthusiasts. In most parts of the United States, hot and humid weather has visited and overstayed its welcome, which is no treat for the power grid, either. Elevated temperatures mean increased electricity consumption and accompanying higher prices, the cherry on top amidst a nationwide surge in demand fueled by data centers, manufacturing, and mass electrification.So far, we've seen grid operators issue a few alerts and calls for conservation, particularly in constrained PJM Interconnection territory, where emergency conservation measures kept electricity demand ​from eclipsing an all-time high set in 2006. Down in Texas, the record book is being rewritten this summer. ERCOT has shattered its all-time demand mark more than once, but has also thus far kept power prices reasonable by leveraging an influx of renewables and battery energy storage to break generation records, too.In general, serving peak demand is extremely expensive, and the peakier the system, the pricier it is for the average ratepayer. As most of the country copes with higher electricity bills, finding ways to curb costs is paramount. Thankfully, utilities have a variety of tools at their disposal to improve grid utilization and peak load management, including flexible home electrical equipment, smart electric vehicle charging, and managing distributed energy resources through virtual power plants. And since transmission and distribution system infrastructure is designed to accommodate the few hours of the year when the system is taken to its limits, there is almost always spare capacity on power lines, which can be leveraged via advanced transmission technologies, as we discussed in the previous episode of the Factor This Policycast.This edition of the podcast, presented in partnership with Advanced Energy United, explores demand-side solutions for surviving summer peaks. Host Paul Gerke leads a discussion highlighting the tools available to keep the lights on and bills manageable, and how utilities can use them to get more out of our existing grid without investing in costly, time-consuming infrastructure upgrades. Richard Caperton, vice president for public policy at SPAN, and Sarah Steinberg, managing director at Advanced Energy United, outline the metrics that matter, share how early legislation is leaning, and explain why demand-side solutions work for utilities.Energy policy on your mind?

This episode is about what happens after the spiritual underworld. About the woman who went down, took on the lessons nobody up the line was willing to take on, and came back up carrying something. And about what she is supposed to do with it.The Vessel is open. A year of live, personal work building the structure your family draws from — the membership, the income, and the portion of it that is left to compound.→ Come and see The VesselI saw a quote — I didn't build this for me, I built this so that you can breathe.There has been a lot of noise lately about parents who keep providing for their adult children, and a lot of disdain aimed at them. What I hear underneath that disdain is survival. A parent who has run out of energy will always find a reason why the running out was necessary — it made me stronger, it will make them stronger — and will call the exhaustion a virtue.I don't agree with it. If you have been down into the Spiritual Underworld, if you know what it is to be unable to breathe, you would never wish that on anyone, least of all the people who came out of your own body.The excuse dressed as a lesson. I had to do it, so you should have to do it too. Where that comes from, and why it is a lower form of consciousness rather than a moral position.The alchemical marriage. The animus rising as provider and protector — and why a woman with her inner masculine activated will simply not tolerate the idea of her children being sent out into the world with nothing.Why survival closes the portal. A woman forced into toxic masculine energy, pulling her weight, giving and giving and giving, no longer has access to the divine. And she is the one who was meant to hold the vision for everybody. Her family contracts instead of expanding, and nobody understands why.Energy that doesn't run out. The difference between the mother who is burnt out by eighteen and the mother whose children can lean on her strength at forty. It isn't temperament. It's whether the inner masculine is awake.The shaman and the village. Not everyone has to go down. One goes down and comes back wise, and the rest are spared. If you are listening to this podcast, it was probably you. Which means it is now your job to keep the others out of it.Your future selves are your children too. The woman at fifty, sixty, eighty, a hundred — she is another grown child you are responsible for. She either thanks you for what you did now, or she inherits your suffering because you unconsciously handed it forward.What the structure actually is. You gather your community around something you love. They pay you for it. You live on part of it and pour the rest into a vessel that compounds, quietly, for years — until the structure is stronger than you are. Your energy declines with age. The structure does not.Two generations down. Providing for your children and your grandchildren, through wisdom and experience they don't have yet and you do.I didn't build this for me. I built this so that you can breathe.Only one person needs to do the suffering for the family. If they do it properly, the rest get to enjoy that.When you go into the spiritual underworld, you come out as a provider and a protector.You have access to such superpower energy within you, beyond what seems reasonably normal. It's the same thing as lifting a car off your child.Your energy is declining. And yet the structure is getting stronger and stronger and stronger.The Vessel is where this gets built. Not the philosophy of it — the actual thing. A membership of a few hundred people gathered around something you genuinely love, priced so that a significant portion of what comes in can be set aside and left to compound. Built quickly, in the first weeks. Held for a year while it takes root.It is one structure, built once, that your future selves and your children and their children can draw from — so that nobody else in your bloodline has to go down there and learn what you learned.→ The Vessel

Texas Railroad Commissioner Wayne Christian joins Kirk Offel for a wide-ranging conversation about the infrastructure required to support America's accelerating demand for artificial intelligence.They explore Texas' energy advantage, grid reliability, natural gas generation, the potential reuse of produced water for data center cooling, and the role data centers could play in rebuilding rural communities. Commissioner Christian shares examples of how major infrastructure investments can generate property-tax revenue, create local career paths, and allow families to remain in the towns they call home.Kirk and Commissioner Christian also discuss community opposition, responsible site selection, industry communication failures, workforce development, and why developers must speak directly with the people affected by these projects—not simply arrive with polished presentations.At the center of the conversation is a critical question: Can Texas create a model for data center growth that strengthens the grid, protects communities, expands opportunity, and helps secure America's position in the global AI race?For more about us: https://weareoverwatch.com/data-center-revolution-podcast/For guest inquiries reach out to: podcasts@weareoverwatch.com

Key Takeaways: Merchant Banking and Real Assets: Merchant banking has created wealth by understanding the cost of producing physical goods. Today, these ideas can also be applied to digital assets and new markets. Electricity Is Becoming More Important: As technology and AI grow, electricity is becoming a major economic resource. Understanding energy costs can help investors better understand modern markets. Technology Can Lower Costs: New technology often makes it cheaper to produce goods and services. Bitcoin works differently because its network is designed to make producing new Bitcoin increasingly difficult over time. Bitcoin Connects Money and Energy: Bitcoin mining uses real-world electricity and computing power. This gives Bitcoin a unique connection between digital money and physical energy. Buy at Low Costs, Sell Into Strong Demand: A long-standing investment strategy is to understand production costs and market demand. Investors can look for opportunities when assets are priced near their underlying costs and consider selling when demand and liquidity are high.   Chapters: Timestamp Summary 0:00 Mastering Merchant Banking and Electricity's New Age Playbook 1:57 Understanding Merchant Banking and Civilization's Financial Foundations 6:25 Understanding Liquidity Cycles and Market Timing Strategies 9:11 Bitcoin's Unique Value Anchored in Energy and Technology 14:30 Bitcoin's Design Balances Wealth Accumulation and Generational Challenges 16:47 Understanding Bitcoin's Production Costs and Market Dynamics 23:04 Parenting Challenges During COVID-Induced Anxiety 23:37 Mastering Bitcoin Cycles for Long-Term Wealth Accumulation   Powered by Stone Hill Wealth Management   Social Media Handles    Follow Phillip Washington, Jr. on Instagram (@askphillip)   Subscribe to Wealth Building Made Simple newsletter https://www.wealthbuildingmadesimple.us/   Ready to turn your investing dreams into reality?

Most of us were taught to treat emotions like distress, numbness, and burnout as private failings to manage and move past, rather than normal responses to living within a world full of crises. The unintended result is a distrust in our own bodies and mind, further leading to more confusion about what is 'normal.' One framework offers a potential path to living in harmony with all of the mind's distinct parts, breaking the defensive and counterproductive loops we tend to get stuck in. What sort of systemic ripples might become possible if we stop trying to smother uncomfortable parts of ourselves, and begin embracing them as critical pieces of our own mental ecologies? In this episode, Nate is joined by Dr. Richard C. Schwartz, the therapist who developed Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Steffi Bednarek, a climate psychologist applying that same model to organizations, governments, and culture at large. Dick walks through the origins of IFS, which describes the mind as naturally made up of "parts" – protectors and exiles – with their own histories, fears, and roles, which are all held by an underlying "Self." Steffi extends the model outward to show how institutions and even entire countries can be read as systems of exiles and protectors, and shares how she uses IFS with governments, financial institutions, and wealth holders to defuse shame and effectively guide toward pro-social behavioral change. Together, they explore why healing our relationship to our own most despised parts may be inseparable from healing our relationship to the rest of the living world. How can looking inward to our own thought processes and patterns help us better understand and relate to others, especially those whose behavior we find hardest to accept? As we continue through challenging times, how can we balance critical physical and policy work with the internal work of healing our relationship to the mental parts we shy away from? And would our decisions and actions change if more and more humans began to lead from curiosity and compassion, instead of fear, and could that be enough to shift the larger system? (Conversation recorded on August 5th, 2026)   About Richard C. Schwartz: Richard C. Schwartz, PhD, is the creator of Internal Family Systems, a highly effective, therapeutic model with a growing evidence base, that de-pathologizes the multi-part personality. Richard is also the Founder of the IFS Institute that primarily offers training for professionals. He is currently a Teaching Associate in Psychiatry, at Cambridge Health Alliance, a Harvard Medical School teaching affiliate. Richard has authored or co-authored more than ten books on Internal Family Systems and related topics, including No Bad Parts and Internal Family Systems Therapy. He lives near Chicago with his wife Jeanne, Vice President of the IFS Institute, close to his three daughters and six grandchildren.   About Steffi Bednarek: Steffi Bednarek is a gestalt psychotherapist, trauma therapist, and climate psychologist. Her work explores the interface between climate change and mental health. With twenty-five years of experience in depth psychology, complexity thinking, climate psychology, and grief tending, Bednarek has worked for national governments and global institutions to prepare leaders and organizations for the psychological dimension of climate change in decision-making processes. Her work has been featured in the Huffington Post, BBC, David Milliband's "Reasons to be cheerful" podcast and numerous international publications. She is the co-founder of "Explorations into Climate Psychology" journal and an associate member of the American Psychological Association's climate change group.   Show Notes and More   Watch this video episode on YouTube   Want to learn the broad overview of The Great Simplification in 30 minutes?

 Energy superpower is a fine marketing slogan. In fact, lots of countries have stated their ambition to become the next energy superpower, but oddly, no one spells out what that actually means. Fortunately, there is a rigorous academic definition for energy superpowerhood, which ranks the EU, the U.S., and China as the world's true energy superpowers. All others are pretenders, Canada included, despite its obvious oil and gas resources.  What would it take to become a true energy superpower, and is now strategically the right time to pursue such a game plan? ⚒️ Additional Tools & Resources:

Western medicine diagnoses people with autoimmune disease, hypothyroidism, IBS, high cholesterol, stubborn weight, fatigue… And then treats every one of those things like it's an isolated problem. Thyroid low? → Here's thyroid medication. Can't lose weight? → Eat less. Exercise more. Gut symptoms? → Here's another prescription. H. pylori? → Here's an antibiotic. But WHO THE HELL is asking WHY? Have you ever been diagnosed with an autoimmune disease… but nobody investigated WHY your immune system started attacking your own body? Have thyroid problems… but your care stops at checking TSH and adjusting medication? Struggle with stubborn weight despite eating well, exercising and taking all the "right" supplements? Deal with bloating, constipation, fatigue, brain fog, hair loss or inflammation—and get told it's age, hormones or stress? Or maybe your bloodwork keeps coming back "normal"… while you KNOW you don't feel normal? I see it all day, every day, with nearly EVERY patient that comes to us. And here's what I want to know: Why is the immune system dysregulated? Why is the thyroid struggling? Why is the gut inflamed? Why is an infection like H. pylori thriving? What does the microbiome look like? What environmental toxins and exposures could be adding to the burden? Are the liver, kidneys, lymph and bowels adequately supporting elimination? And if a doctor is going to prescribe an antibiotic for something like H. pylori… did anyone even investigate whether that strain carries resistance genes to the drug they're about to prescribe? Now ask yourself the BIG question: Has anyone ever gone looking for what might be underneath your diagnosis?

Do environmentalists—and the rest of the progressive left that includes combating climate change as part of its “Omnicause”—care more about saving the planet or replacing market capitalism, private property, and pluralist living arrangements with socialist tower-blocks connected by overcrowded light rail (on which there will be no enforcement of fare payment, naturally)? There's a tell—opposing nuclear-powered electric generation, which emits no point-source carbon emissions whatsoever. And my colleague Ken Braun, author of Capital Research Center's comprehensive report on the environmentalist movement's “Enemies of Energy,” has updated his extensive list of left-wing groups opposed to nuclear energy—the ones that clearly privilege making a New Soviet Man over making the Earth better for people.Links:https://capitalresearch.org/article/opponents-of-nuclear-power-now-hauling-in-400k-per-hour/https://www.influencewatch.org/influence-networks/opposition-to-nuclear-energy/https://capitalresearch.org/article/the-ideological-fuel-of-a-new-left-part-1/https://capitalresearch.org/article/nrdc-adopts-nuclear-power-sanity-and-exits-list-of-nuclear-energy-enemies/'https://capitalresearch.org/article/the-odd-enemies-of-nuclear-energy/

Listeners may be familiar with a quote from Frederick the Great, "He who defends everything, defends nothing."   Federal leaders understand this all too well. As they are deluged with data, attacks, and new technology on a daily basis, it can be confusing what to prioritize and in trying to defend everything, agencies can be left vulnerable to attack.   In this week's episode of Feds At The Edge, several thought leaders share how they set priorities, leverage existing tools, and experiment with new solutions to enhance efficiency and security.   Bridget Carper-Arnone of the Department of Energy discusses how Enterprise License Agreements and centralized governance can reduce costs and streamline compliance across multiple systems. SEC's Jeff King emphasizes the value of understanding existing tools, noting that a deeper dive with vendors can uncover capabilities agencies may already have. While Emilio Escobar from DataDog highlights observability and AI as keys to modernization, explaining how greater visibility into the technology environment can help agencies deploy resources more effectively. Tune in on your favorite podcast platform to hear federal technology leaders share practical strategies for prioritizing investments, maximizing existing tools, and modernizing with greater efficiency and security.

568. You know that feeling. Five minutes with a certain person and you need a three-hour nap. You leave the conversation and realize you've given everything while receiving nothing. Energy vampires are real — and the science behind why they drain you is more interesting than the term suggests. This week Dr. Judy Ho unpacks the psychology of emotionally depleting relationships: what's actually happening in your brain and body during these interactions, why some people are far more vulnerable than others, what distinguishes the unconscious drainer from the deliberate one, and three tools to protect yourself without becoming someone who cuts off everyone who's ever had a hard day.Have a mental health question?

Solar demand remains strong, storage is scaling fast, and inverter technology is becoming more central to how modern power systems actually function. But the conversation around inverters is no longer just about efficiency, bankability, or price. As these devices take on more intelligence — managing batteries, supporting grid stability, and communicating more directly with the wider system — they are also being treated as a new point of strategic vulnerability. In both Europe and the US, policymakers are starting to respond accordingly.Host Sylvia Leyva Martinez is joined by Joe Shangraw, research analyst at Wood Mackenzie covering solar inverter markets, to examine what that shift means in practice. Their core argument is that inverter policy is moving beyond trade protection and into a more complicated mix of cybersecurity, industrial strategy, and grid risk. They unpack why Europe's March decision to block public EU funding for projects using Chinese-made inverters matters beyond its immediate scope, and why the region's dependence on Chinese vendors — especially in utility-scale string inverters and integrated battery-plus-inverter systems — makes any attempt to diversify more complex than simply switching suppliers. A large part of the discussion focuses on the FCC's July decision to add foreign power inverters to its Covered List, where the real issue is not just whether the headlines overstated the impact, but how narrowly or broadly the rule will ultimately be applied. Shangraw explains that the current language appears closely tied to communications hardware, especially wireless-enabled devices, which creates a more nuanced picture than an outright market shutdown. That distinction matters because it affects not only which new products fall in scope, but how developers, manufacturers, and asset owners start thinking about software updates, grid-code compliance, and long-term procurement risk. The challenge is no longer just cost competitiveness. It is whether an inverter can remain usable, updateable, and policy-safe over the life of the asset.The episode also looks ahead to the next set of decisions facing the industry: whether Europe expands restrictions beyond publicly funded projects, how quickly US and allied manufacturers can localise enough of the supply chain to qualify under tougher domestic-content rules, and where practical bottlenecks are most likely to emerge. The takeaway is that inverter policy is becoming a test case for a much bigger energy-transition problem: how to reduce genuine security risks without creating new deployment constraints. For developers, manufacturers, and policymakers alike, the inverter market is no longer just a technology contest. It is becoming a test of how the energy transition handles security, industrial policy, and system reliability all at once.The report and note and Sylvia refers can be found here: Solar Solar Inverter Market Share Report 2026Ban on inverters from high-risk countries, led by China, to affect 14% of EU solar demand through 2030This episode is brought to you by twentytwo & brand – a marketing and PR agency built specifically for energy leaders.Lots of agencies say they work with energy companies. twentytwo & brand was built for them.

This week, we're presenting an episode of Critical Capital, a new podcast from Crux and Latitude Studios. Energy policy has become increasingly polarized just as the U.S. faces record electricity demand, a rapidly expanding AI economy, and growing competition from China.  In this episode, Alfred Johnson speaks with North Carolina Sen. Thom Tillis about why the country's biggest energy challenge is the inability to build durable, bipartisan policy that survives changes in political leadership.  Drawing on more than a decade in the Senate, Tillis argues for an "all-of-the-above" energy strategy that embraces renewables, natural gas, nuclear, and other generation sources rather than treating them as competing ideologies. He discusses the economic consequences of abruptly cancelling energy projects, the need for stable investment signals, and why rising electricity demand requires policymakers to focus on practical solutions instead of partisan rhetoric.

The story most people miss about a widening Middle East war isn't just who fires the next missile, it's who can absorb the retaliation after they do. I'm solo today, moving fast through the latest escalations and then slowing down where it matters: the strategic constraints that make “hit them harder” sound simple while turning into a nightmare for bases, allies, and civilians across the region. We talk Iran, US Central Command messaging, and the way regional dynamics can cascade when Saudi Arabia, Yemen's Ansar Allah, and Iraqi militias all become part of the same retaliatory map. From attacks on energy sites to pressure around key waterways like the Strait of Hormuz, the stakes are bigger than a single battlefield. Energy markets, shipping risk, and the politics of escalation all collide, and once multiple actors tie their demands together, diplomacy gets harder, not easier. Then we get into the numbers that drive everything: Patriot missiles, THAAD interceptors, and what dwindling inventories mean for real world air and missile defense. I also respond to Trump's public remarks, the temptation toward escalation when defenses are thin, and why nuclear risk is the darkest edge of this kind of cornered thinking. We close with the US Israel political reality, Netanyahu's visit, public polling on ICC accountability, and a media moment that shows how warped the Gaza debate has become.

If your container can only hold 60 watts of energy, that is all you are getting. No strategy, no opportunity, no amount of hustle changes that. What changes it is expanding the vessel itself. David Ghiyam is a Kabbalah teacher and spiritual coach who has spent 25 years working with people at the intersection of consciousness, abundance, and transformation. This is one of the most expansive conversations Heal Thy Self has ever had. It moves from money ceilings and competing belief systems to anxiety as a message from your highest destiny, to darkness as excess light, to the energetic pipes of mother and father that govern healing and abundance. It goes places most podcasts never go and it earns every minute of it. In this episode, you'll discover:  •  Why the ceiling you keep hitting with money, love, or opportunity has nothing to do with the outside world, and why fixing your circumstances without expanding your spiritual vessel is fighting a shadow instead of the seed  •   What competing belief systems are and how a hidden belief you are completely unaware of can quietly sabotage every goal your conscious mind is working toward  •   Why anxiety is not a problem to solve but a signal that your higher destiny is trying to come in and cannot, and what it actually takes to open the channel This one will stay with you.
