Slow-speed skills matter — especially on heavy adventure motorcycles. But if that's where your training stops, there are real situations where it starts working against you. Because sometimes control doesn't come from crawling — it comes from the right momentum at the right time. Clinton Smout from SMART Performance Centre joins us to talk about what happens when the trail gets rough and the bike needs to do what it's designed to do: move. We explore how stability changes with motion, how traction and momentum work together in real terrain, and why timing — with throttle, clutch, and body position — is what separates bouncing through from riding cleanly through.

In this episode of Heal Yourself, Change Your Life, Brandy Gillmore explores how subconscious emotional patterns can be directly linked to physical pain, inflammation, and unexplained symptoms—and how real healing begins at a deeper level of the mind. Brandy shares compelling research, including documented cases of multiple personality disorder (now called dissociative identity disorder), where an individual experiences different illnesses, symptoms, and even blindness in different personalities—despite having the same physical body. These findings offer powerful evidence of the mind-body connection and show how quickly the body can change when subconscious programming shifts. In a live coaching session, Brandy works with Tracey, a volunteer experiencing migrating foot pain, jaw pain, burning sensations, and inflammation that doctors have been unable to explain, even with MRIs. As the session unfolds, Brandy helps Tracey identify suppressed emotional patterns related to relationships, control, and unmet emotional needs that have been stored in her subconscious mind. You'll Discover: How it's possible for chronic pain to move or flare without a clear medical cause How suppressed emotions can remain active even when you "feel fine" Why positivity, meditation, affirmations, and mindset work may not be enough How subconscious relationship patterns can affect both emotional and physical health What true emotional transformation looks like at the mind-body level As Tracy's awareness shifts, listeners witness her experience real-time reductions in pain and burning, demonstrating how emotional healing can support physical change when addressed at the subconscious level. This episode is especially valuable for anyone experiencing: Chronic pain or unexplained symptoms Autoimmune flare-ups linked to stress or relationships Repeating relationship patterns that feel painful or confusing A sense of feeling unloved, disconnected, or emotionally stuck Frustration after trying meditation, mindset work, or holistic approaches without lasting results This episode offers education, insight, and hope, showing how healing becomes possible when emotional patterns are transformed—not suppressed. Do you want to see proof of the power of the mind in a medical journal? Here's a demonstration of Brandy Gillmore working with volunteers under medical equipment, as featured in a medical journal.

On this episode of “Fearless,” Jason Whitlock explains why so-called “authentically black quarterback culture” is a problem and a burden. He exposes how much of black culture is anti-biblical, because it is a culture of rebellion and anti-submission to authority. Whitlock shows how Shedeur Sanders is the epitome of everything that's wrong with black culture and how his father, Deion Sanders, with his arrogance, gold chains, and rapper persona, is the embodiment of the destructive culture. Black culture, Whitlock concludes, is bad for black quarterbacks, and he points to the fact that white quarterbacks are dominating in the year of black starting quarterbacks. Shaun King joins the show to react to Whitlock's commentary and to make predictions about the Seahawks vs. Rams game tonight.

What do you do when God's promise feels delayed—and the facts of your life say it's too late?

Explore how students are using simple mindful breathing practices to navigate stress, stay grounded, and support their classmates.Summary: Classrooms often are confronted with difficult topics that can leave students overwhelmed and anxious. In this episode of The Science of Happiness, we highlight how college student Evelyn Mata brought calm to herself and peers during an Immigration Studies class through simple collective breathing practices. How to Do Box Breathing: Sit comfortably: Find a quiet spot and focus on your breath, keeping a relaxed posture.  Inhale (4 counts): Breathe in slowly through your nose, letting the air fill your belly and chest. Keep the pace steady, not strained for a count of four.  Hold (4 counts): Pause gently at the top of the inhale. This isn't a tense hold, just a moment of stillness to let the body register calm. Hold your breath for four slow counts.  Exhale (4 counts): Release the breath through your nose or mouth in a smooth, even flow. Imagine tension leaving the body as the breath moves out for a count of four, emptying your lungs.  Hold (4 counts): Let yourself rest briefly in the empty space before the next inhale. This completes the “box.” Repeat: Continue this cycle for several minutes, or for 3-4 rounds, until you feel calmer. Stop sooner if you feel lightheaded; return to natural breathing when you're done.

“If you don't forage for Za'atar, how are you going to feel connected to the land? How are you going to understand what your ancestors have been doing for thousands of years here?” - Aya Gazawi FaourIn For The Wild's series in collaboration with Olive Odyssey, we hear from Aya Gazawi Faour, their co-founder, who shares about plants indigenous to the Palestinian landscape and their deep ties to culture, resistance, and enduring lifeways. In this episode, Aya shares about the herb Za'atar and its role in Palestinian kitchens. Aya details the ban placed on foraging Za'atar by Israel and its selective enforcement against Palestinians. Despite encroachments on their land and these restrictive practices, Aya emphasizes connection to the land down to the very flavor of Palestinian food and the scent of Palestinian kitchens. Colonizing forces try to separate people and the land, but as Aya speaks, it is clear that this separation is neither sustainable nor wholly possible. Let this conversation be an invitation to look more closely at the lands and living beings of Palestine. If Aya's stories moved you, take the next step: learn from the farmers and stewards keeping these lifeways alive. Explore the work of Palestinian growers, deepen your understanding of their traditions, and support their harvests through Olive Odyssey. Every gesture of connection helps nourish a culture, a landscape, and a people rooted in resilience.Olive Odyssey brings together farmers from across Palestine with a shared purpose: to tell the story of the Palestinian people through olive oil. Their mission is simple yet powerful — each bottle reflects a deep connection to the land and a commitment to sustainable, community-centered practices. To learn more about the farmers, their methods, and to source olive oil, za'atar, recipes, and more, visit https://oliveodyssey.com.Plants Are Political is based on Olive Odyssey's series by the same name.CreditsMusic for this episode is “Rosa” and “Anima” composed by Doe Paoro from her album “Living Through Collapse.” For The Wild is created by Ayana Young, Erica, Ekrem, Julia Jackson, and Victoria Pham. Learn more at https://www.forthewild.worldSupport the show

This episode kicks off the Career Growth Accelerator series, focused on the specific hurdles faced by mid-to-senior level engineers, managers, and leaders who are looking to move to the next level. Before diving into specific strategies, I'm addressing the fundamental prerequisite for real growth: getting out of your own way. We often block our own progress because our ego conflates our self-worth with our career position, making it impossible to see the real problems or lessons we need to learn. In this episode, I share a vital mental exercise to help you disconnect your identity from your job title and begin diagnosing your career challenges honestly.Understand why protecting your ego is one of the most dangerous ways to control your career, leading you to discount valid reasons for stagnation or failure by focusing only on external factors.Discover the fundamental shift needed: disconnecting your self-worth from your career aspirations. Your position is merely a fact and has little bearing on your innate value or capacity to succeed more generally.Learn how to use a distancing thought experiment—viewing your situation as if it were an acquaintance's story—to remove your ego from the diagnostic process and gain necessary clarity and perspective.Explore why effective growth advice, whether for promotion or post-mortem analysis, requires focusing almost exclusively on the diagnostic aspect ("What happened and why?") rather than building justifications based on your worthiness or past performance.

Send Bidemi a Text Message!In this episode, host Bidemi Ologunde spoke with Bruce Johnson of TekStream Solutions to unpack how the Whole of State initiative—with the Louisiana State University, Splunk, and Amazon Web Services—is turning classrooms into 24/7, student-powered SOCs that launch graduates into mid-level roles. With nearly four decades in IT security, Bruce shares how opening the door to any discipline builds stronger teams and real-world readiness. How do these student SOCs keep organizations safe while students learn? What does a typical shift and escalation look like? Can a philosophy or nursing major really become an analyst? How is success measured—placements, detection speed, or something else? Where does AI help without replacing humans?

What happens when the world's most delightfully impractical sport runs straight into the hardest questions about fairness and inclusion? We invited amateur strongman athlete and community mod Lola Phoenix to lift the lid on Atlas stones, log presses, and the culture that keeps people coming back for more. Along the way, we unpack a controversy shaking the strongman scene and sketch a better path forward that puts competition—and community—first.Lola walks us through the nuts and bolts of strongman: why odd objects make lifting feel like a puzzle, how a 90 kg stone becomes a rite of passage, and which events are secretly miserable (looking at you, Dinnie-style carries). If you're new, you'll get a no-nonsense roadmap for getting started without a fancy gym: build deadlifts, carries, and overheads; find a crew; and follow approachable pros and evidence-based resources like Stronger By Science. We also laugh a lot about height problems, bag toss fails, and the eternal allure of big rocks.Then we get serious. Strongman's gendered divisions, uneven funding, and patchwork rules have produced real harm, from stripped titles to targeted harassment. Instead of arguing identity in a vacuum, we zoom out to everything that already skews “fairness”: height, hormone profiles, coaching access, money, and the absence of consistent PED testing. Lola shares a practical fix hiding in plain sight—use existing competition data to build ability-based brackets. Set the events first, auto-cluster athletes by performance, and let the weights match the lifter. You get closer heats, better shows, and a bigger tent for strongwomen and nonbinary athletes without locking anyone out.If strength sports intrigue you or you care about making competition genuinely fair, this one's for you. Tap play, meet Lola, pick up a metaphorical stone, and help us grow a smarter, kinder strongman community.
