(4:00) The mind can play tricks on you, and you don't always realize how the weight creeps up. He tried several ways of losing weight, and had some success, but the weight would always return. He enjoyed running; however, he hit a point where he could no longer do it due to damage to his hip. Finally, he got a hip replacement, but was told he wouldn't run again. (23:00) Tim went into a deep depression and felt like a shell of himself. Stress from work took a toll, and he started gaining weight again. (32:00) He made changes and described having an epiphany of how he could move forward. Tim has lost 115 pounds since starting again, and his wife has lost 70 pounds. Words of Wisdom: (43:00) Firstly, if you are depressed, get help from a counselor, doctor, pastor, etc. Tim has learned to speak up when he is struggling instead of "eating his feelings."

Pro tip: If you can't see yourself getting up every morning for the next ten years and being excited about going to work, don't launch a startup. Ajay Prakash co-founded Rinse in 2013 to take the friction out of laundry and dry cleaning — for consumers, and for the small, family-owned businesses behind the counter. Since then, Rinse has scaled into a national brand, and Ajay has become a lecturer at Stanford Graduate Business School's Startup Garage, where he teaches frameworks for validating ideas, testing business models, and knowing when it's time to take the leap into entrepreneurship. I invited him on to share what he's learned about developing domain expertise from scratch, building trust with co-founders, and avoiding the early mistakes that can derail a promising business. RUNTIME 42:38 EPISODE BREAKDOWN (2:22) Ajay talks about two trends that led him to co-found Rinse in 2013. (4:15) Rinse co-founder James Joun was “one of my best friends from college.” (5:29) “When we started, we spent a lot of time with James' parents in the dry-cleaning store.” (6:40) Before taking the leap, founders should identify their “passion, expertise, and market opportunity.” (9:11) “As you build a company, answering the question of ‘why now' and ‘why me' is really important.” (11:19) “We signed up 11 of our friends. We picked up their clothes.” (14:17) “Every smart investor we talked to… told us we had to be on-demand.” (17:41) Early signals led Rinse to pivot from pricing per pound to adopting a subscription model. (20:23) His approach to crafting customer personas. (22:05) “We always envisioned helping the local cleaners.” (27:11) From the start, Rinse used Net Promoter Scores and surveys to glean customer insights. (30:44) The “two general areas of lessons” Ajay teaches at Stanford's Startup Garage. (34:53) Why he encourages Startup Garage students to keep asking themselves, “Am I still excited?” (37:41) How to prepare for the mental challenges of being a startup founder. (40:01) Is Rinse's operational model adaptable to other industries and services? LINKS Ajay Prakash James Joun Rinse The Four Steps to the Epiphany, Steven G.

In this episode of The Missing Secret Podcast, John and Kelly talk about the process of getting more enlightened. Exactly how it happens. They take a stroll down memory lane in each area of their lives and look at how they have become more enlightened. They start with career. John talks about launching into becoming an entrepreneur when he was 30. The lesson he got is always be in the control position. He then talks about learning in his 50s the six components of doing his best. John points out that in his 40s but he was delusional as to what doing his best was. In his 40s, he thought it was just getting up early. In his 50s he realized there were six components to doing his best. Including understanding how the human mind works.Then John talks about the Epiphany he got at 50 from reading the book Think and Grow Rich. Discovering that 95% of a person's daily thoughts and actions are unconscious. During this discussion of career John and Kelly talk about the four different types of people. And the importance of understanding how different people process the same information differently. Then John and Kelly talk about what they've learned in health. This is really interesting. John talks about reading the book younger next year when he was 48. Moving from exercising three days a week to six days a week. And John talks about how his enlightenment on health has been greatly increased by recently reading Peter Atia's book Outlive. This is made him way more knowledgeable about health. Then John and Kelly talk about the impact of getting more enlightened in marriage. Embracing our partner's differences. Buy John's book, THE MISSING SECRET of the Legendary Book Think and Grow Rich : And a 12-minute-a-day technique to apply it here.About the Hosts:John MitchellJohn's story is pretty amazing. After spending 20 years as an entrepreneur, John was 50 years old but wasn't as successful as he thought he should be. To rectify that, he decided to find the “top book in the world” on SUCCESS and apply that book literally Word for Word to his life. That Book is Think & Grow Rich. The book says there's a SECRET for success, but the author only gives you half the secret. John figured out the full secret and a 12 minute a day technique to apply it.When John applied his 12 minute a day technique to his life, he saw his yearly income go to over $5 million a year, after 20 years of $200k - 300k per year. The 25 times increase happened because John LEVERAGED himself by applying science to his life.His daily technique works because it focuses you ONLY on what moves the needle, triples your discipline, and consistently generates new business ideas every week. This happens because of 3 key aspects of the leveraging process.John's technique was profiled on the cover of Time Magazine. He teaches it at the University of Texas' McCombs School of Business, which is one the TOP 5 business schools in the country. He is also the “mental coach” for the head athletic coaches at the University of Texas as well.Reach out to John at john@thinkitbeit.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-mitchell-76483654/Kelly HatfieldKelly Hatfield is an entrepreneur at heart.

Fiction from NonBinary Review Issue #40: Epiphany

Show Notes: Reverend John H. Finley starts the conversation with a nod to family connections and some good news. He also mentions working at the Unilu Shelter, and how it was a transformative experience for him. Throughout the conversation, the importance of recognizing and valuing the contributions of individuals to the institution is mentioned. The Priesthood and Nativity Prep John describes his experience working at the shelter and how it led to the decision to work with younger people. He decided to become an Episcopal priest, but the bishop wouldn't ordain him since he was openly gay. After college he got involved in building a school and decided that he eventually wanted to open his own. John stayed at Nativity Prep for five years, living in a convent. After applying to Harvard Divinity School, a new  bishop approached him and encouraged him to re-consider priesthood. After John applied to Harvard Divinity School, the same priest encouraged him to open a school. He spent a year at HDS, raising money, hiring teachers, and building a facility to start the Epiphany School. The school is similar to the first Jesuit school. Becoming a Priest and Opening a School John explains the difference between the Epiphany School and Nativity Schools. Nativity Schools serve  low-income kids from homeless, abused, neglected, and poverty-stricken backgrounds, but they look for kids of academic promise and engaged parents, and John explains how this influenced how he structured Epiphany School.  In addition to opening the school,  John also became a priest. He has a parish in Boston and is the summer pastor at Trinity York Harbor in Southern Maine, but his main job is running the Epiphany School, and he explains how it has grown with many locations around the world. It has also grown from a middle school to five components: the Middle School, Early Learning Center, Middle School, Graduate Support, Teaching Fellow Program, and Epiphany Impact. After Epiphany and Extra Curricular Activities John talks about succession planning and projects outside of running the school. He  is currently a trustee of a college scholarship foundation that awards several million dollars a year in college scholarships. He is involved in a program that gives grants to people with projects, and he works with others who want to build schools, helping them replicate the Epiphany model. In addition to running Epiphany School, John also preaches, marries, baptizes, and buries people.  The Nature of the Epiphany School John explains that the core principles of the school are non-merit based admission, tuition-free tuition, extended school days, and graduate support. The school also aims to move every family out of poverty while the kids are in the school. John emphasizes the importance of tracking every graduate every year to improve the program and understand where they are succeeding and where they could improve. He also emphasizes the importance of evaluating the efficacy of the school's interventions. He shares a story of a philanthropist who took 1000 boys at risk and provided 500 with free summer camp and weekend mentoring. John emphasizes the importance of looking at long-term outcomes and holding oneself accountable for social justice work. For Epiphany, 90% of its funding comes from private donors, and the school's graduates have an unemployment rate of less than 1%, whereas the national average is around 20%. This makes it a great way to attract investment and funding. The Epiphany Investment in Families  John talks about the school's curriculum improvement system, which involves yearly assessments by outside experts and feedback from faculty. This Kaizen approach ensures that every aspect of the school is being evaluated and critiqued by experts. John emphasizes the importance of working with families, as studies suggest that 30 to 50% of Head Start gains are lost within three to five years due to perverse incentives in the social system. John explains how the school aims to help families, including  offering an escrow program for families. This program grew out of the school's work on employment and helps families move towards independence from social programs. John also mentions that every child born in the Epiphany system receives a $3,000 or 529 plan, which is invested in a conservative mix of equities and bonds. This investment message is sent to families early on, ensuring that the funds are for their child.  Personal Values and Super Powers                                                                  John takes stock of his good traits, including his ability to thank people. He believes that he has a decent work ethic and has a decent radar of what is feasible. John acknowledges that he has had an amazing education, including Harvard, Groton School, and a private elementary school. He has also been successful in cultivating a diverse group of people around him, with his team and founding teachers being with him for 20 years. John enjoys raising money and bringing resources to things, which has helped him sustain his success. John believes that his ability to lead by example are key factors in his success.   The Finley Family Legacy The conversation turns to John's family legacy and the role it played in his life and world outlook. His great grandfather built City College, a tradition that has been passed down through generations. He left Harvard with no debt and enough income to live a modest life. However, he faced pressure  to find his passion and pursue his dreams. John's father encouraged him to pursue his passions, even when he didn't make any money. He eventually realized that he needed more time to pursue his passions. He now enjoys working with his former students and seeing them grow into happy, productive lives. Social and Emotional Aspects of School John discusses the importance of social and emotional aspects in a school setting, focusing on rewards for conduct and effort. They use a software program called Class Dojo, which allows teachers to track students' thoughtful choices and courage. This system is tied to parents' phones, allowing them to recognize their child's efforts. John emphasizes the importance of group therapy for all students, with 70% being in individual therapy. Therapists and teachers work together to ensure no one falls through the cracks. The school also has a group called the Brotherhood and Sister Sister, older graduates who provide social and emotional support to students. Another tool used is the holistic student assessment, developed with McLean's and MGH. This self-assessment helps teachers understand a child's progress on social and emotional issues and helps capture the child's heart. The school never gives up on a child, ensuring that they make the school work for them. This discipline is important as it prevents teachers from making excuses for not meeting the full needs of their students.  Influential Harvard Professors and Courses John discusses his experiences with various individuals, including Carrie Welch, Peter Gomes, Memorial Church, and the Signet Society. He mentions that the shelter work at Harvard changed his life, as it gave him a sense of making a difference in the world. Many graduates of the shelter went on to interesting careers, such as Katia Falls, who founded a program called On the Rise, which works with women who don't come into the shelter because they don't feel safe. Another example is a recent college graduate who realized the need for a youth homeless shelter in Massachusetts and built a youth homeless shelter in Harvard Square. John believes that Harvard's advantages were ridiculous, but he hopes they are being used in different ways to do good things in the world. The book "Where Harvard meets the Homeless" examines the impact of the shelter work on many people's lives.

Brian Fulton and Epiphany church look into the Gospel of Luke, looking into what Jesus could mean when he says the Son of Man has no place to rest his head.

The history of God's people continues with the reign of Amaziah in Judah and Jeroboam II in Israel. When Amaziah secures the throne in Judah, he follows the LORD's Word in dealing with the conspiracy that ended his father's life. As Amaziah finds some military success during his reign, he foolishly picks a fight with the king of Israel, and the king of Israel takes Amaziah captive and plunders Jerusalem. During these days in Israel, Jeroboam II is given success in expanding the borders of Israel, even as he continues in the idolatry of Jeroboam son of Nebat.   Rev. Chris Matthis, pastor at Epiphany Lutheran Church in Castle Rock, CO, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study 2 Kings 14:1-29.  To learn more about Epiphany, visit www.epiphanylc.org. "A Kingdom Divided” is a series on Sharper Iron that goes through 1-2 Kings. The division in the kingdom of Israel in this part of history was greater than a matter of north and south. The biggest division was between the people and their God. Yet even as the people rebelled against the LORD as their King, still He remained faithful to call them back to Himself through His prophets, working through history to send the good and gracious King, Jesus Christ. Sharper Iron, hosted by Rev. Timothy Appel, looks at the text of Holy Scripture both in its broad context and its narrow detail, all for the sake of proclaiming Christ crucified and risen for sinners. Two pastors engage with God's Word to sharpen not only their own faith and knowledge, but the faith and knowledge of all who listen. Submit comments or questions to: listener@kfuo.org

Friends of the Rosary,Today is the Solemnity of the Blessed Trinity. This feast, which falls on the first Sunday after Pentecost, originated in the ninth century to honor the Most Holy Trinity, our Triune God.The mystery of the Holy Trinity is a synthesis of Christmas, Epiphany, Easter, Ascension, and Pentecost.It reflects our inner desire to share the life of God, as baptized in the name of the Blessed Trinity.Only in heaven, in union with Christ, will we properly understand what this fundamental dogma of our faith means.This mystery is based on the sublime truth that there is one God and in this one, eternal, incomprehensible God, there are three Divine Persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.All three Persons participated in the work of our redemption.The Father created and called us to the faith by sending His Son to earth, for "God so loved the world as to give His only-begotten Son." The Son, the Redeemer, and Savior Jesus Christ became man, made us children of God, and died for us. The Holy Spirit, after Christ's ascension, became our Guide, Consoler, and Sanctifier, making us His temple.Sunday is the "Day of the Lord," the day of His resurrection, and the day of the Most Holy Trinity.Ave Maria!Jesus, I Trust In You!Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

John Gonzalez was interviewed by Vanessa Denha Garmo on Ave Maria Radio's "Epiphany" program. During the interview, John shares about evangelization, Rescue Michigan and more. 

*Note: This is the Free Content version of my interview with Michael Eisenberg. To access the entire episode, please consider becoming a Tier 3 'Garden of Arcane Delights' member on Patreon, or you can purchase this full episode for a one-time fee. My guest this month is Michael Eisenberg. Taken from Metapsychosis: Journal of Consciousness, Literature, and Art, Michael describes himself as “an avid, deep listener of Acousmatic music. Many people know this music under a myriad of names such as Electro-Acoustic, Musique Concret, computer music, music for loudspeakers etc. but I prefer to call it Acousmatic because that term seems, to me… the closest I can get to the “classical” definition of experiencing sounds completely divorced from the physical, mechanical, technological gestures that produced them. Sounds for sounds sake, organized in a manner that is meaningful on some level, usually the imaginal to the listener. My project is to overlay the so-called esoteric idea space, both ancient and modern on top of this music and discover connections, correspondences, sympathies and synchronicities that may aid in making suggestions on how to listen to this music.”In this discussion, Michael introduces acousmatic music, the history, the ideas behind the genre, and how it differs from other sounds such as ambient/atmospheric film music or soundscapes, for example. He calls this “music for loudspeakers, not performance,” although the genre has expanded to include performances known as “diffusions”. Michael also discusses his thoughts on how this music acts as a bridge to the Mundis Imaginalis, an esoteric concept taken from Persian/Sufi teachings and brought to the West by scholar Henry Corbin. He then talks more about his project, in collaboration with the Metapsychosis Journal, called “Acousmatic Crossings.” The music featured in this ongoing project strives to “break down the holding cell of what's inside all of us. Our innate imaginal faculty, our inner genius jail breaks out of its unconscious black iron prison—the prison imposed by modernities infatuation with the degraded image… and begins to dream.Acousmatic Crossings presents some of the artists creating in this space today.  We have received a plethora of works, some from artists well established in this realm, many from artists new to me, all bursting with an intrinsic and untaught ability to transport you, the listener beyond the fields you know.If you choose to explore these zones, there is only one simple prerequisite, a prerequisite that all of us have access to.  And that is to simply use your cognitive imagination.” During the course of our conversation, Michael generously offered to curate a list of creators and albums for us to explore. Please find a selection listed below in the program notes, along with several journal articles and essays taken from the Metapsychosis Journal. The full curated list will be put in a separate post on Patreon as it is very long!

After working obsessively for 1100 hours on my novel "Hourglass," I had this epiphany: AI is a mirror of our relationship with lust.The same men who are ruled by lust will likely be ruled by AI. But the man who reclaims his will - and disciplines his desire - won't be replaced. He'll be multiplied. His work and the good he does will be multiplied by AI. While his bio-spiritual essence will be multiplied by lust: the only tool with which we capture time and defeat death.The novel I wrote is about that very struggle: to reclaim free will and wield it in a world doing its damndest to claw it away from us with digital talons. Here, I'll share the AI and tech tools and other hacks I used to bring my story to life...3:00 Science fiction does not remain science fiction for long5:25 Lust is a tool (like AI)9:45 Writing the book (with AI?)27:12 Audiobook production31:00 The cinematic trailer (was a waste of time!)35:00 The internet hated my book, while real people loved it41:50 Epiphany from 1100 hours of obsessionRead: The 17 tools I used to bring my novel - "Hourglass" - to life

Father Richard John shares about his journey to the priesthood, the importance of hope and our call to serve and evangelize. Parish of the Week: St. Dominic Parish in Saginaw is our Parish of the Week.  Their Parochial Administrator, Fr. Richard John, joins us today!Message from Fr. Richard John – Ordained in 2009, I have now journeyed 16 years as a priest, and I share this reflection as a thanksgiving to the Lord who called me. I come from the Archdiocese of Hyderabad, Telangana, in southern India, and currently serve as the Parochial Administrator at St. Dominic Parish since 2023.Three early influences shaped my vocation: my grandmother Margaret John, whose daily Rosary and devotion to St. Anthony inspired a prayer movement in our neighborhood; my father Aron John, a daily communicant who introduced me to the beauty of the Eucharist; and my first encounter with the story of Mother Teresa, whose radical commitment deeply moved me as a child. These seeds of faith were nurtured by my parish priest, and I joined the seminary in 1998 after 10th grade.Growing up in a joint family of modest means, financial struggles were common. I often joined sports camps at school just for the meals. Yet, through God's providence and support like CFCA sponsorship from Sr. Shirley Ruder, a Dominican nun from Michigan, I could continue my education.Despite health challenges during formation, I experienced healing that confirmed my call. Over the years, I've served in various ministries — from being assistant to the archbishop, to working at St. Anthony's Shrine, teaching, radio ministry, and youth outreach.My path to Saginaw in 2022 was guided by God's providence, facilitated by friends, Fr. Raj, Fr. Bill and Bishop Gruss. I remain grateful to the Lord, the bishop, fellow clergy, and parishioners whose support makes this mission meaningful. Thank you

The conversation covers the differences between naturopathic and traditional Western medicine, the importance of mindset and the nervous system, and practical advice for maintaining health. Highlights include discussions on the role of blood sugar regulation, the benefits of physical movement post-meals, and the potential impact of alcohol on midlife health.

Together, with Fr. Mike, we examine the mysteries of Jesus' Baptism and temptation in the wilderness. Fr. Mike unpacks how Jesus' Baptism is yet another Epiphany or manifestation of Christ as Messiah. We also explore Christ's acceptance of his mission as God's suffering servant. Fr. Mike emphasizes that Jesus' temptations in the desert mirror the temptations of Adam in the garden, but, unlike Adam, Jesus does not succumb to these temptations. He remains faithful to the Father. Through this obedience to the Divine Will, he conquers the Devil, and in our own obedience, we are participating in this victory. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 535-540. This episode has been found to be in conformity with the Catechism by the Institute on the Catechism, under the Subcommittee on the Catechism, USCCB.

Fr. Mike explores the mystery of Jesus' infancy and hidden life. We first take a look at Jesus' Baptism, circumcision, and the Epiphany. Fr. Mike discusses that Jesus' circumcision shows us that salvation comes from the Jews. The Epiphany shows us that salvation does not stop there, it extends to all of us. Later, we examine Jesus' hidden life. Fr. Mike emphasizes the importance of Jesus' obedience to not just his Father in Heaven, but to his earthly father and mother as well, and how we can imitate that obedience.
