When Automation Becomes Dehumanisation (And How to Stop It Before You Lose Your Best Partners)If you're using AI to manage your affiliate program but wondering why engagement keeps dropping, this episode explains exactly what's going wrong. Leanna Klyne, Affiverse's Agency Director with 18 years in the trenches, joins Lee-Ann to dissect the hidden cost of over-automation. They explore why AI-approved partners sometimes include your competitors, how content creators are being misrepresented by tools that don't understand context, and why the human touch still drives the partnerships that actually convert. This conversation offers practical guardrails for using AI responsibly without sacrificing the relationships that make affiliate marketing work.Talking Points Include:The approval automation trap that declined a top publisher because AI couldn't distinguish between a media buyer and a content site, costing the program a valuable winter sports partner during summer dormancyWhy segmented outreach beats mass emails every time and how investing four extra hours monthly to tailor content by partner type builds the micro-trust relationships that drive long-term revenueThe compliance blind spot that could make you legally liable when faceless accounts and user-generated content creators slip through automated vetting without legitimate contact detailsListen to Find Out More About:Why being transparent about AI use in outreach emails actually increases response rates and adds humor that builds rapport instead of destroying trustThe specific data you should never put into public AI tools like ChatGPT because it becomes open source and violates client confidentialityHow to write program terms that clearly define acceptable AI usage for partners while protecting your brand from deepfakes and unauthorised voice replicationThe exact compliance risks that emerge when automated approvals let unverifiable partners into regulated verticals without legitimate contact informationWhy boring consistency often outperforms fancy AI implementation, and how simple calendar reminders maintain partner relationships better than sophisticated automationLee-Ann's personal policy on LinkedIn messages and why every response comes from her, not a chatbot pretending to be herKey Segments of This Podcast and Where You Can Tune In to Go Direct:[18:08] The segmentation strategy that achieves industry-leading open rates by speaking directly to six or seven partner types instead of mass-blasting generic content[27:00] How to use AI for trend spotting within partner data to identify optimal booking windows that increase performance 7% above industry mean while cutting wasted spend[37:09] The essential ethical guardrails that preserve humanity while enabling innovation, including the perspective shift that changes how you evaluate every AI decisionCall to ActionHuge thanks to Leanna Klyne for sharing the real-world AI frameworks she implements daily across Affiverse's agency clients.

Save 10% on your next Fleshlight with promo code 10PRIVATE at fleshlight.com. For the 238th episode of Private Parts Unknown, host Courtney Kocak welcomes adoptive mother and writer Marjie Alonso. In this interview, Marjie unpacks what ethical adoption actually looks like—and why the familiar “better life” narrative so often obscures power imbalances, secrecy, and profound loss. Drawing from her experience adopting two sons from Paraguay and later taking them back to meet their birth mothers, she explains the concept of the primal wound, how adoption can impact adoptees (and everyone involved) across a lifetime, and why infertility or loss is not, on its own, a reason to adopt. We dig into the hidden economics of adoption, the business of family-making, and how a system built around demand can slide into coercion and trafficking. Marjie also speaks candidly about reckoning with her own choices, what she wishes she had understood earlier, and why flipping the script—from “adults who want children” to “children who need families”—is essential to imagining a more ethical future for adoption.

One of the biggest reasons intuitive practitioners hesitate to trust themselves isn't doubt — it's integrity. In this episode of Your Yes Filled Life, I break down the ethical difference between intuition and projection, and why learning to discern the two is essential once you're already working with clients. Projection is common in early and intermediate intuitive work — not because you're unskilled, but because intuition often develops faster than structure. Left unexamined, it can lead to overstepping, emotional charge, and confusion in sessions. We talk about how projection actually shows up, why certainty and urgency are red flags, and how somatic literacy is the key to clean, ethical intuitive work. This episode is for practitioners who know their intuition is real — and want to refine how they use it. In this episode: Intuition vs. projection — how to tell the difference Why emotional charge isn't intuitive clarity How somatic tracking prevents over-interpretation Common projection patterns in Reiki, mediumship, and coaching Ethical language that protects both you and your clients Go deeper ✨ Intuitive Somatic Healer Certification A 6-week advanced training for practitioners who want more precision, ethical clarity, and confidence in client work. Enrollment is open now through January 2, 2026 (limited to 20 practitioners). Learn more and enroll here.

Collecting and Using Data Ethically to Create Customer Delight Shep interviews Phyllis Fang, Head of Marketing at Transcend. She talks about the importance of personalization and how companies can ethically collect, unify, and use customer data to create seamless, trust-building interactions. This episode of Amazing Business Radio with Shep Hyken answers the following questions and more: How can companies ethically collect and use customer data without crossing privacy boundaries? Why is transparency important when asking customers for permission to use their data? How can brands strike the right balance between personalization and avoiding being perceived as intrusive or "creepy"? What are the best practices for building trust with customers through data collection and usage? How does unified customer identity across digital and real-world touchpoints improve the overall customer journey? Top Takeaways: Customers are willing to share information, but only if they get something valuable in return. When a company uses customer preferences to recommend something relevant at the right time, customers are more willing to engage. On the other hand, when the connection feels forced or overwhelming, it can make customers stop buying and look for other companies that will respect their trust. Customers feel better when companies are upfront about what data they're collecting and how it will be used. When a brand is transparent with why they need information and asks for permission, customers feel respected and safe. Giving customers options about how their data is used makes them more likely to share details. Businesses should focus on getting only getting the information they need to start doing business with a customer. Then, gradually over time, the business can learn more. Ethical use of data builds trust. Just because a business can use a customer's data does not mean it always should. It's important for companies to explain how they use customer information, and to give customers choices. When customers know what's happening and have control, they are more likely to trust a brand with their information and their business. Some customers want weekly emails or product updates, while others just want order confirmations or receipts. Give your customers a way to choose the kind of information they receive and how often they want it, and make setting this up easy. Better business practices lead to loyal customers. When companies focus on giving people what they want, respecting their choices, and treating data carefully, customers become fans who keep coming back. Personalization isn't just about online shopping. It can happen in real life too. Imagine walking into a store and the salesperson remembers what you like, what you bought before, and even your favorite colors. This shows how connecting customer history, identity, and preferences creates a great experience both digitally and face-to-face. Plus, Shep and Phyllis discuss the importance of making sure customers understand what they are saying yes to, such as cookie banners and opt-in forms. Tune in! Quote: “When customers share information, they often want control over how and where it's used. A company needs to respect those preferences and enforce them consistently.” About: Phyllis Fang is the Head of Marketing at Transcend, where she helps brands grow through customer trust, personalization, and digital transformation. Before working at Transcend, she drove key product marketing initiatives at Uber and has a strong background in e-commerce and digital marketing. Shep Hyken is a customer service and experience expert, New York Times bestselling author, award-winning keynote speaker, and host of Amazing Business Radio. Learn more about your ad choices.

Paring Down: Realistic minimalism to live more intentionally
Are you actually prepared for an emergency—or just surrounded by emergency clutter? In this episode, I take a clear-eyed look at emergency supplies and why so many of us over-prepare for rare, dramatic scenarios while under-preparing for the things most likely to happen. We unpack how common cognitive biases—like the availability heuristic, denominator neglect, and “dread risk”—shape our fear-based stocking habits and quietly lead to clutter, overwhelm, and false security. I walk through five realistic categories of emergency preparedness: 1. Evacuation 2. Getting trapped at home 3. Obscure emergencies 4. Everyday sickness 5. First aid and explain how to pare each one down so it's usable, accessible, and actually helpful when stress is high. If emergency prep has ever felt overwhelming—or like another excuse to hold onto too much—this episode will help you rethink what safety really looks like!

Poet and essayist Carol Ann Davis (Fairfield University) joins Evan Rosa for a searching conversation on violence, childhood, and the moral discipline of attention in the aftermath of Sandy Hook. Reflecting on trauma, parenting, childhood, poetry, and faith, Davis resists tidy narratives and invites listeners to dwell with grief, healing, beauty, and pain without resolution.“I don't believe life feels like beginnings, middles, and ends.”In this episode, Davis reflects on how lived trauma narrows attention, reshapes language, and unsettles conventional storytelling. Together they discuss poetry as dwelling rather than explanation, childhood and formation amid violence, image versus narrative, moral imagination, and the challenge of staying present to suffering.Episode Highlights“Nothing has happened at Hawley School. Please hear me. I have opened every door and seen your children.”“And that was what it is not to suffer. This is the not-suffering, happy-ending story.”“I'm always narrowing focus.”“I think stories lie to us sometimes.”“I think of the shooting as a nail driven into the tree.”“I'm capable of anything. I'm afraid I'm capable of anything.”“I tried to love and out of me came poison.”About Carol Ann DavisCarol Ann Davis is a poet, essayist, and professor of English at Fairfield University. She is the author of the poetry collections Psalm and Atlas Hour, and the essay collection The Nail in the Tree: Essays on Art, Violence, and Childhood. A former longtime editor of the literary journal Crazyhorse, she directs Fairfield University's Low-Residency MFA and founded Poetry in Communities, an initiative bringing poetry to communities affected by violence.

Please hear me. I have opened every door and seen your children.” (Hawley School's Principal sends this message to parents, including Carol Ann)Living inside the tension where nothing happened and everything changedWriters allowing mystery, unknowing, and time to remain unresolvedNaming “directly affected families” and later “families of loss”Ethical care for proximity without flattening grief into universalityThe moral value of being useful within an affected communityNarrowing attention as survival, parenting, and poetic disciplineChoosing writing, presence, and community over national policy debatesChildhood formation under the long shadow of gun violence“I think of the shooting as a nail driven into the tree. And I'm the tree.” (Carol Ann quotes her older son, then in 4th grade)Growth as accommodation rather than healing or resolutionIntegration without erasure as a model for living with traumaRefusing happy-ending narratives after mass violence“I don't believe life feels like beginnings, middles, and ends.”Poetry as dwelling inside experience rather than extracting meaningResisting stories that turn suffering into takeawaysCrucifixion imagery, nails, trees, and the violence of embodiment“I'm capable of anything. I'm afraid I'm capable of anything.”Violence as elemental, human, animal, and morally unsettlingDistinguishing intellectual mastery from dwelling in lived experienceA poem's turn toward fear: loving children and fearing harm“I tried to love and out of me came poison.”Childhood memory, danger, sweetness, and oceanic smallnessBeing comforted by smallness inside something vast and terrifyingEnding without closure, choosing remembrance over resolution#CarolAnnDavis#PoetryAndViolence#TraumaAndAttention#SandyHook#SandyHookPromise#FaithAndWriting#Poetry#ChildhoodAndMemoryProduction NotesThis podcast featured Carol Ann DavisEdited and Produced by Evan RosaHosted by Evan RosaProduction Assistance by Macie Bridge, Alexa Rollow, Zoë Halaban, Kacie Barrett & Emily BrookfieldA Production of the Yale Center for Faith & Culture at Yale Divinity School https://faith.yale.edu/aboutSupport For the Life of the World podcast by giving to the Yale Center for Faith & Culture: https://faith.yale.edu/give

The class session was a detailed Bible study on **Deuteronomy 22–25**, framed within a broader overview of the book's structure and purpose. *** The teacher began by reviewing the **three major addresses of Moses** in Deuteronomy: 1. **Chapters 1–4** – a review of Israel's wilderness journey and lessons learned. 2. **Chapters 4–28** – the main body of laws and covenant stipulations (the current focus). 3. **Chapters 29–34** – covenant renewal, the commissioning of Joshua, and the Song of Moses. The teacher explained that **Deuteronomy mirrors the form of ancient suzerain-vassal treaties**—including a preamble, historical prologue, general and specific stipulations, blessings and curses, and witnesses—arguing this supports Mosaic authorship and historical authenticity. He then summarized chapters 22–25, highlighting numerous **civil, moral, and ceremonial regulations**, such as: - Responsibility to help recover a neighbor's lost property. - Prohibitions on cross-dressing and mixing seeds, animals, or fabrics. - Rules about marital faithfulness, sexual conduct, and punishments for adultery. - Commandments regarding fair treatment of debtors, the poor, and foreigners. - Ethical practices for labor, honesty in business, and justice in the courts. - Provisions for widows (levirate marriage), gleaning for the poor, and humane treatment of animals. These were presented as evidence of **God's comprehensive concern** for justice, purity, mercy, and community well-being. After reading through these laws, the teacher turned to **theological reflection**, emphasizing: - **The Mosaic Law was temporary**, meant for Israel under the old covenant. - **The new covenant in Christ** replaces it, written on believers' hearts (Jeremiah 31). - Christians are no longer “under the law” but under grace (Galatians 3, Hebrews 9). - Yet the laws remain **profitable** because they reveal God's character and priorities—especially His holiness, fairness, and covenant faithfulness. He urged the class to see that, like ancient Israel, **Christians represent God to the world**, and their obedience and relationships should display His character publicly. He contrasted this biblical communal focus with modern “individualistic, easy-believism,” quoting an author who argued that Sinai teaches believers to live as God's representatives in daily life, not just to secure an afterlife. Class discussion reflected on how **purging evil** served as communal protection and how God still desires involvement in the details of believers' lives. The session closed with a prayer thanking God for His detailed care, asking for sensitivity to His guidance, and reaffirming a desire to live as examples of holiness in Christ.
Supporting Therapists and Clients Through Peri and Post Menopause - Door Knobbing in Counselling In Episode 359 of the Counselling Tutor Podcast, your hosts Rory Lees-Oakes and Ken Kelly take us through this week's three topics: Firstly, in ‘Ethical, Sustainable Practice', they explore getting over cancellation guilt, looking at what therapist cancellation guilt means, why it arises, and how to approach it with compassion and professionalism. Then in ‘Practice Matters', Rory speaks with Ruth Hill about supporting therapists and clients through perimenopause and post menopause - challenging outdated views and reframing this life stage as one of growth, not decline. And finally, in ‘Student Services', Rory and Ken discuss the phenomenon of doorknobbing - those last-minute disclosures from clients - and how to respond ethically and sensitively in practice. Getting Over Cancellation Guilt [starts at 03:09 mins] In this section, Rory and Ken explore getting over cancellation guilt, examining the emotional impact on therapists when they must cancel sessions and offering compassionate strategies to reframe the experience. Key points discussed include: Cancellation guilt is a common emotional experience, especially when sessions are called off at short notice. Ethically, prioritising self-care supports safer practice and protects the therapeutic relationship. Cancelling when unwell models healthy boundaries and gives clients permission to do the same. Communication is key - offer reassurance, alternative times, and avoid oversharing to prevent client worry. Contracting for cancellations upfront can reduce confusion and help manage expectations. Use supervision to explore guilt, recognise blind spots, and develop resilience in responding to these scenarios. Supporting Therapists and Clients Through Peri and Post Menopause [starts at 21:57 mins] In this week's ‘Practice Matters', Rory speaks with Ruth Hill, REBT therapist and sports scientist, who shares insights from her CPD lecture on menopause and its implications for therapy. Key points from this conversation include: Menopause is often overlooked, under-celebrated, or medicalised - yet it is a significant life stage deserving validation. Therapists must reframe menopause as a natural transition rather than a deficit or decline. Ruth highlights how REBT and the ABCDE model can help clients challenge perfectionism and internalised stigma. Brain rewiring during menopause affects cognitive and emotional functioning - requiring compassion, not self-blame. The therapy space should allow for honest dialogue, normalising experiences like brain fog or hot flushes without shame. Menopause also affects therapists - being human and modelling acceptance benefits both client and practitioner. Door Knobbing in Counselling [starts at 45:39 mins] In this section, Rory and Ken explore ‘door knobbing' - when clients make significant disclosures just before leaving a session - and how practitioners can navigate this with care. Key points include: A doorknob comment is typically a serious or emotionally charged disclosure made at the end of a session. Clients may use this as a safety mechanism, dropping difficult truths when time is limited. Therapists should hold the client emotionally and assess immediate risk if necessary. Revisit doorknob comments in the next session with sensitivity - offer choice, don't impose an agenda. Supervision is essential when managing potential safeguarding issues or feeling overwhelmed. Know agency policies and procedures - particularly for harm to self or others - and act accordingly.

The story of Bluebeard has a mostly happy ending, with the killer's newest bride being rescued in the nick of time by her brothers. Good for her, less good for his previous wives, who she'd discovered hanging on hooks from the walls of a bloody closet. There are countless real-life stories of spouses being killed for money, with no muscular siblings breaking down the door with swords in hand. It's much rarer for a killer to make victims of multiple spouses, but the central character in this week's story had the spirit of Bluebeard in his heart, a man who would try to make a career from killing his wives for profit.Sources: Fatal Charm, Carlton SmithA Rose For Her Grave, Ann Rulehttps://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/law-justice/shes-got-her-name-back-teenager-murdered-in-1977-finally-identified-with-new-dna-technique-and-genetic-genealogy/Follow us, campers!Patreon (join to get all episodes ad-free, at least a day early, an extra episode a month, and a free sticker!): https://patreon.com/TrueCrimeCampfirehttps://www.truecrimecampfirepod.com/Facebook: True Crime CampfireInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/truecrimecampfire/?hl=enTwitter: @TCCampfire https://twitter.com/TCCampfireEmail: truecrimecampfirepod@gmail.comMERCH! https://true-crime-campfire.myspreadshop.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/true-crime-campfire--4251960/support.

Meghan has finally managed to get a private letter to her father after days of trying to reach him, with her team accusing the Daily Mail of making discreet contact nearly impossible. An Express columnist criticises the email approach, calling it a “box-ticking exercise” while revisiting the long-running tensions inside the Markle family. Harry and Meghan also release a statement praising Australia's ban on under-sixteens using social media, saying the move protects children but doesn't solve tech's deeper problems. The couple add a surprise new Netflix documentary to their slate, Masaka Kids, A Rhythm Within, celebrating a Ugandan dance collective they've long supported. A PR expert argues Meghan should embrace the Hollywood model more openly. Meanwhile, King Charles launches a new line of royal Christmas ornaments and attends an Advent service at Westminster Abbey, speaking of “light, hope and peace.” Princess Anne earns praise for signing her Christmas card simply as “Anne and Tim,” a modest gesture that fans call quintessentially her.Hear our new show "Crown and Controversy: Prince Andrew" here.Check out "Palace Intrigue Presents: King WIlliam" here.

In this episode, host David Mandell welcomes Dr. Paul Lynch, a double board-certified anesthesiologist and pain management specialist, entrepreneur, and business leader. Dr. Lynch shares his remarkable journey from aspiring psychiatrist to pain medicine innovator—a shift inspired by his mother-in-law's battle with cancer and the discovery of interventional pain treatments that could transform patients' lives. His early experiences at the Mayo Clinic shaped his belief in comprehensive, integrated care—a philosophy that became the foundation for his first practice, Arizona Pain, which quickly became one of the nation's leading pain management centers. Dr. Lynch details how entrepreneurial thinking, coupled with strategic use of digital tools, drove his success. His story of launching a medical website during fellowship—eventually ranking number one on Google before opening his doors—illustrates how physicians can use education-based marketing to reach patients and grow responsibly. As his career evolved, Dr. Lynch founded U.S. Pain Care, intentionally designed to avoid the mistakes of his first venture. Through introspection and what he calls his "Manifesto of 53 Errors," he now builds companies around lessons learned, focusing on empowering other physicians with ownership, autonomy, and ethical profitability. The discussion also delves into real estate, private equity, and long-term business strategy in medicine. Dr. Lynch explains how owning medical real estate can be one of the most impactful and ethical ways for physicians to build wealth—separate from clinical care—highlighting the benefits of property ownership, long-term leasing, and physician-owned REITs. He closes with advice to doctors: never make fortunes "on the backs of patients." Instead, focus on providing excellent care while building wealth through smart business decisions, integrity, and surrounding yourself with expert advisors in law, finance, and real estate.

Paring Down: Realistic minimalism to live more intentionally
In this episode, I sit down with Deedee Moore of More Than Grand to talk about something so many families quietly wrestle with: over-gifting from grandparents. Together, we dig into why it happens, how it feels, and what we can do to bridge the gap with more empathy and clearer communication. Both perspectives matter: The parent perspective (how too many gifts can create stress, clutter, or guilt) AND the grandparent perspective (how giving is often an expression of love, connection, and identity). We explore the sweet intentions behind the gifts, the frustration that can happen on the receiving end, and the simple conversations that can help everyone feel heard. This conversation is full of compassion, aha moments, and practical ideas for strengthening those precious family relationships—without letting “stuff” get in the way.

Bureaucracy kills more transplant patients than shortage does. Jessica Wynn harvests the truth about organ donation's dark side here on Skeptical Sunday! Welcome to Skeptical Sunday, a special edition of The Jordan Harbinger Show where Jordan and a guest break down a topic that you may have never thought about, open things up, and debunk common misconceptions. This time around, we're joined by writer and researcher Jessica Wynn!Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1253On This Week's Skeptical Sunday:Over 100,000 Americans wait for organs while 13 die daily — not from organ shortage, but from systemic inefficiency, poor matching protocols, and bureaucratic bottlenecks that waste thousands of usable organs annually.Living donation is safer than most realize. Donors can give kidneys, liver portions, even lungs while alive and generally recover well, but workplace protections vary wildly by state, creating real financial and career risks for altruistic donors.The organ matching system is a bureaucratic labyrinth. HRSA, OPTN, UNOS, CMS, and CDC all overlap in managing transplants, creating inefficiencies that prevent organs from reaching recipients in time despite available technology.Ethical nightmares haunt the system. Scandals include surgeons nearly harvesting from living patients, global black markets exploiting the poor, and allegations of forced organ harvesting from prisoners in countries like China without consent.Register as a donor and advocate for reform. One donor saves up to eight lives and helps 75+ through tissue donation. Push for automated referrals, airline transport mandates, and better tracking tech to transform a broken but lifesaving system.Connect with Jordan on Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube.

The Horn Effect and Autism – Don't Lose You in Counselling Training In Episode 358 of the Counselling Tutor Podcast, your hosts Rory Lees-Oakes and Ken Kelly explore this week's three topics: Firstly, in ‘Ethical, Sustainable Practice', we discuss letting go of the outcome in counselling - why embracing client autonomy matters. Then in ‘Practice Matters', Rory speaks with Paula Jones about the Horn Effect and autism - how unconscious bias can shape perceptions of neurodivergent individuals. And finally, in ‘Student Services', Rory and Ken explore not losing yourself in counselling training - staying authentic while growing through your studies. Letting Go of the Outcome in Counselling [starts at 03:18 mins] In this section, Rory and Ken explore how holding on to an expected outcome can compromise client autonomy and therapeutic presence, highlighting the importance of letting go of the outcome in counselling. Key points discussed include: Fixating on a client's outcome may cause the therapist to override the client's direction or autonomy. Therapy is not linear - clients may change goals or progress in unexpected ways. The BACP and NCPS frameworks emphasise client autonomy and non-directive practice. Supervisors play a key role in helping counsellors identify when they're steering the process. Letting go involves being mindful, present, and trusting the client's self-directed journey. Progress may be subtle or delayed; the therapist's role is to offer presence, not direction. The Horn Effect and Autism [starts at 28:48 mins] In this week's ‘Practice Matters', Rory speaks with Paula Jones, a neurodivergent leadership consultant and coach, about the Horn Effect and how unconscious bias impacts perceptions of neurodivergent clients. Key points from this conversation include: The Horn Effect is a cognitive bias where one perceived negative trait skews the entire perception of a person. Neurodivergent individuals often experience quick, unjustified judgements in professional and social settings. Misunderstandings can arise from masking, directness, or non-normative behaviours. Paula highlights the need for neurodivergent-sensitive intake processes and safe, accepting therapeutic spaces. Therapists should be aware of their own unconscious biases and create space for clients to be themselves. The interview includes powerful personal experiences and practical suggestions for inclusive practice. Don't Lose You in Counselling Training [starts at 58:43 mins] In this section, Rory and Ken explore how training can challenge students' sense of self and how to stay grounded through the process. Key points include: Students may feel they need to become someone else to be a good counsellor. Counselling training can feel intense - it's important to maintain perspective. True personal growth enhances who you are rather than replacing your identity. Authenticity is key - it's okay to be yourself and still be professional. Supervision and personal therapy support students in processing and integrating their development. Sarah Henry joins to share insights on navigating authenticity and maintaining your core self during training.

When we last left you, former Amishman Eli Stutzman was having a little trouble with the law. He'd abandoned the Amish lifestyle after the suspicious death of his wife and was currently going on a tour of the US, sleeping with any man with a pulse. His son, Danny, was starting to show signs of severe abuse, but no one in his life stepped forward to report it. Finally, Eli's roommate/employee was found murdered in a ditch in Texas. Join us now for the conclusion of this chilling true story.Sources: Gregg Olsen, Abandoned Prayers: An Incredible True Story of Murder, Obsession, and Amish Secretshttps://amishamerica.com/do-amish-believe-taking-a-photo-captures-their-souls/ https://www.ohiosamishcountry.com/articles/photography-and-the-amish https://www.ohiosamishcountry.com/articles/the-traditional-amish-youth-period-of-rumspringa https://language.mki.wisc.edu/essays/pennsylvania-dutch/#:~:text=While%20most%20Amish%20and%20Old,Lutheran%20or%20German%20Reformed%20affiliation.Investigation Discovery's "Murder in Amish Country," episode "Amish Serial Killer"Follow us, campers!Patreon (join to get all episodes ad-free, at least a day early, an extra episode a month, and a free sticker!): https://patreon.com/TrueCrimeCampfirehttps://www.truecrimecampfirepod.com/Facebook: True Crime CampfireInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/truecrimecampfire/?hl=enTwitter: @TCCampfire https://twitter.com/TCCampfireEmail: truecrimecampfirepod@gmail.comMERCH! https://true-crime-campfire.myspreadshop.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/true-crime-campfire--4251960/support.

This is the full conversation I've been so excited to share with you. A few days ago you heard the preview, and today you get the complete story with Christopher Hill, founder of Hands Up Holidays and Impact Destinations. This conversation is a beautiful reminder that the adventure is already happening within us, inviting us to show up with more compassion, curiosity, and courage.Christopher talks about how one trip to South Africa opened his heart to service, community, and deeper connection. He explains the difference between his two travel brands, why eco luxury is about honoring people and place, and how intentional travel can create lasting impact. We explore cultural immersion, breaking down othering, and how families grow in powerful ways when they serve together.He also shares stories from travelers whose lives changed in unexpected ways, from families whose kids chose to give up Christmas gifts to support children they met abroad, to clients who found healing after deep loss, to a woman who returned home so inspired that she moved back to Kenya on her own.Key TakeawaysWhat philanthropic travel meansHow Hands Up Holidays and Impact Destinations differWhat eco luxury really looks likeHow meaningful travel deepens connection and dissolves otheringWhy service based trips transform families and individualsReal stories of healing and confidence gained through travelLet yourself consider how your own travels and choices could carry more meaning, and what might shift if you followed that feeling.Learn More About His Work:Hands Up Holidays https://handsupholidays.com/https://www.facebook.com/luxuryvoluntourismhttps://www.instagram.com/handsupholidaysImpact Destinations https://impactdestinations.com/https://www.facebook.com/impactdestinationsSend us a text Support the show✨ Join My TEDx Spokane Journey!

What happens when a dentist who started with pegboards faces down stage four cancer and emerges with the wisdom of 44 years in practice?In this deeply moving episode, Dr. Allison House and Shawn Zajas sit down with Dr. Michael Thompson, a pioneering Arizona dentist whose career spans from the pre-internet era to today's AI-driven landscape. This isn't just another career retrospective—it's a masterclass in building authentic dental practice while maintaining unwavering integrity.Dr. Thompson opens up about the pivotal moments that shaped his authentic leadership journey: from that first meeting with Dr. House at Bucky's Barbecue 25 years ago, to the gut-wrenching decision to replace 50+ failed crowns at his own expense, to facing his mortality with stage four lymphoma and choosing to dedicate his "bonus years" to mentoring the next generation at A.T. Still University.The conversation tackles the profession's greatest challenges with refreshing honesty. When did the pressure to produce 100 new patients a month become the industry standard? How do you maintain ethical practice when overhead keeps climbing? What's the real cost of losing human connection in an increasingly automated healthcare system?Dr. Thompson shares his three-part formula for daily success—feeling well-compensated spiritually, professionally, and financially—and why compromising any one dimension leads to burnout. He reveals how his father's dinner table lessons about entrepreneurship shaped his practice philosophy, why he believes "you're only as ethical as you can afford to be," and what it really takes to build 30-year patient relationships in an era of corporate consolidation.But perhaps most powerful is his cancer journey: diagnosed at 67 while in the prime of his practice, facing refractory stage four B-cell lymphoma, and ultimately experiencing what he calls "a story too good to be true" through CAR-T immunotherapy. His reflection on looking back without regrets—"I don't regret the things I did, I regret the things I didn't do"—offers profound wisdom for practitioners at every career stage.This episode is essential listening for any dental professional wrestling with authentic practice in today's commoditized healthcare landscape, seeking to understand how to maintain integrity when business pressures mount, or simply wanting to hear what sustainable success looks like over a four-decade career.Subscribe to the podcast on APPLE: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-authentic-dentist/id1487586274Or SPOTIFY: https://open.spotify.com/show/6qapfaNRkcIlCjgIsftb60?si=d02c74cf4f924897

Supermarket tuna raises a disturbing question: What's behind your canned tuna? In this episode, you uncover the hidden human cost of the global tuna industry, including the devastating story of fisherman Deby Putra Bunanda, whose health collapsed after months at sea supplying tuna for major supermarket brands. His experience reveals a deeper and darker truth about forced labor, long deployments without oversight, and the human suffering behind one of the world's most common foods. The surprising emotional insight: Bunanda returned home barely able to walk or speak after seven months at sea. Sustainable fishing sounds simple on a label, but the reality is far more complicated. We look at the environmental toll of industrial tuna fleets, from destructive fishing methods like FADs to the bycatch of sharks, turtles, and juvenile tuna. We examine why certification labels, including MSC, often fail to guarantee true sustainability or ethical labor practices. You will also hear how ISSF pushes the industry forward while still facing major limits in transparency and enforcement. Ethical seafood is possible, but only if consumers know what to look for. This episode breaks down which labels matter, why "pole-and-line" and "troll-caught" tuna are safer choices, and how certain brands perform better on transparency than others. If you've ever wondered whether your tuna is truly sustainable or if the worker who caught it was treated fairly, this episode gives you the clarity you need.
