Mike Dudas holds zero ETH and sees Hyperliquid as crypto's Tether moment. He also has a clear framework for what makes a token worth buying. ======================================================== Thank you to our sponsor! Fidelity: Explore crypto careers and make the decision that could change your future at https://crypto.fidelitycareers.com ======================================================== Strategy sold 32 Bitcoin, worth just $2.5 million, and the market didn't miss it. For Mike Dudas, Managing Partner at 6th Man Ventures, the sale broke the "never sell" promise that sustained the company's premium. He doesn't see how the narrative gets rebuilt. Dudas applies the same unsentimental read to the rest of the L1 landscape. His firm holds zero ETH — five years of contradictory narratives have left the market unable to value it. In his view, Solana's decline is simpler: memecoin activity peaked and hasn't recovered. Hyperliquid, in his view, is closer to Tether than a competing L1: the no-KYC international market is enormous, and asset quality is the moat. His framework for tokens worth owning: programmatic buybacks and consistent communication from leadership. On AI, he argues agentic trading will far outpace agentic payments — Visa, Mastercard, and Stripe are moving too fast for new entrants to displace them.

Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Dr. Tiffany BusseyTitle: Director, Morehouse Innovation and Entrepreneurship Center (MIEC)Dr. Tiffany Bussey discusses how the Morehouse Innovation and Entrepreneurship Center works to scale Black- and Brown-owned businesses, close the racial wealth gap, and intentionally connect entrepreneurs and workers to capital, contracts, and emerging industries, particularly in sustainability. Purpose of the Interview The interview serves to: Educate listeners about the systemic barriers facing Black entrepreneurs beyond access to capital. Highlight practical solutions—programs, partnerships, and ecosystems—that create real economic outcomes. Shift mindsets around entrepreneurship, risk, and opportunity, especially in underserved communities. Expose listeners to emerging, high-growth industries (e.g., sustainability, EVs, renewable energy) instead of oversaturated traditional businesses. Promote community-based economic ecosystems, particularly the collaboration between Morehouse, Goodwill, and corporate partners. Key Themes & Takeaways 1. Entrepreneurship as a Tool for Closing the Wealth Gap Dr. Bussey positions entrepreneurship and business ownership as one of the most effective ways to generate long-term wealth in Black communities. The Center has supported 400+ scalable, mid-sized businesses, resulting in: 850+ jobs created $34M+ in new capital accessed $82M+ in new revenue generated Key insight: The problem isn’t a lack of capable Black businesses—it’s visibility, access, and opportunity. 2. “Access to Opportunity” Matters as Much as Capital While access to capital dominates the conversation, Dr. Bussey emphasizes access to contracts and decision-makers. MIEC programs are designed with opportunity partners (large corporations, general contractors, primes) so participants gain: Exposure to real contracts Understanding of supply chains Direct relationships with decision-makers Takeaway: Capital without revenue and customers won’t sustain a business. 3. The Three C’s of Business Growth Dr. Bussey outlines MIEC’s core framework: Capital – Funding and financial resources Connections – Two-way, relationship-based networks Contracts – Revenue-generating opportunities She stresses that connections only matter if relationships are mutual—it’s not enough to “know someone” unless they also understand your value. 4. Breaking Stereotypes About Black-Owned Businesses Dr. Bussey addresses harmful narratives around skill, readiness, and qualifications. She highlights intentional strategies to: Prepare businesses before opportunities arise Align training and recruitment with future industries Counter biases through performance, scale, and visibility Key idea: Preparation plus access dismantles bias. 5. Sustainability = One of the Largest Economic Opportunities Dr. Bussey reframes sustainability as an economic opportunity, not just an environmental issue: Electric Vehicles: ~$163B industry Green Construction: ~$324B industry Renewable Energy: ~$952B industry Sustainable Agriculture: ~$20B industry She urges listeners to stop defaulting to oversaturated businesses (e.g., nightclubs) and instead pursue industries that are expanding rapidly and globally. 6. Workforce Development + Business Development Must Align Goodwill provides free job training, certifications, and even stipends for individuals. Morehouse trains businesses that can hire those workers, creating a full economic loop. This ecosystem addresses two major barriers simultaneously: Human capital Business readiness Takeaway: Economic equity requires aligned systems, not isolated programs. 7. Entrepreneurship Is Rewarding—but Not Romantic Dr. Bussey demystifies entrepreneurship: It’s high-risk, exhausting, and statistically likely to fail early. Failure is part of the process, but historical and financial realities make risk harder for Black entrepreneurs. Ownership remains critical despite these challenges. Key message: Entrepreneurship is powerful, but it must be supported intentionally. Notable Quotes “Entrepreneurship and small businesses are one of the pathways to closing the racial income inequality gap.” “We don’t just provide technical assistance for technical assistance’s sake—this is about creating real opportunity.” “Capital dominates the conversation, but contracts are equally important.” “People don’t buy products or services. They buy solutions.” “We have to stop thinking only about what we feel we have access to.” “Sustainability is not one industry—it’s multiple trillion-dollar opportunities.” “Entrepreneurship is the most rewarding and the most fatiguing thing you’ll ever do.” Overall Impact The interview functions as both a masterclass and a call to action: For entrepreneurs: Think bigger, pursue scalable industries, and prepare for opportunity. For communities: Build ecosystems, not silos. For institutions and corporations: Inclusion requires intentional design. Dr. Tiffany Bussey presents a practical, data-backed roadmap for inclusive economic development—centered on ownership, access, and readiness. #STRAW #SHMS #BESTSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode, Travis and producer Eric dive into one of the most controversial conversations in entrepreneurship and creator culture: should you ever work for exposure? Using a viral post from a balloon company that turned down a celebrity collaboration opportunity, the two unpack the difference between ego and strategy, how to evaluate value in business relationships, and why exposure can sometimes be far more valuable than immediate payment. Along the way, they discuss podcast growth, brand positioning, negotiating leverage, and the dangerous mindset traps that keep small businesses stuck. On this episode we talk about: Whether working for exposure is ever actually worth it How small businesses misunderstand value and leverage Why credibility and audience attention are powerful business assets The role ego plays in business decision-making How creators and entrepreneurs should evaluate opportunities strategically Top 3 Takeaways Exposure is not always worthless — when attached to the right brand or audience, it can create opportunities and credibility that far outweigh short-term payment. Business owners need to honestly evaluate where the value in a relationship is flowing instead of making emotionally driven decisions. Strategic thinking and long-term positioning often matter more than maximizing immediate profit on every transaction. Notable Quotes “Your number one barrier to growth as a small business is exposure.” “Money is only one value lever in business.” “Know your worth doesn't mean pretend you're more valuable than you are.” Connect with Travis Chappell: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/travischappell LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/travischappell Other: https://travischappell.com A Word from Our Sponsors: - Are you ready to start your own creatorjourney and make it big?

You thought it was bad behavior… but your child was secretly terrified. In this episode of The OCD Whisperer Podcast, Kristina Orlova speaks with Keesha Scott, mom, entrepreneur, podcast host, and author, about her daughter's deeply personal journey with OCD, emetophobia (fear of vomiting), panic disorder, and recovery. Together, they explore what it's really like to parent a child with OCD, the painful road to getting the right diagnosis, and how exposure therapy (ERP) helped her daughter reclaim her life. Keesha opens up about: • How OCD first showed up as “bad behavior” before anyone realized what was happening • Going through multiple therapists before finally getting the correct diagnosis • How talk therapy unintentionally made OCD worse • Why ERP therapy (Exposure and Response Prevention) changed everything • The role medication played when OCD became too severe to engage in treatment • Parenting a child whose OCD impacted school, friendships, and family life • The emotional toll of supporting a child through severe anxiety and panic disorder • What OCD recovery looked like over the years — and where her daughter is today This is an honest, emotional, and hopeful conversation for parents navigating OCD, anxiety, panic, or intrusive thoughts in their children — and a reminder that recovery is possible, even when things feel impossible. Whether you're parenting a child with OCD, struggling yourself, or supporting someone you love, this episode offers hope, practical insight, and a reminder that healing happens one step at a time.

THE BETTER BELLY PODCAST - Gut Health Transformation Strategies for a Better Belly, Brain, and Body
Are you struggling with chronic symptoms that you can't explain or get rid of, and nothing you've tried has worked? Do you have symptoms all over your body, from rashes to diarrhea to headaches, fatigue, and tinnitus, but no diet, doctor, or supplement you've tried has helped? Do you have a history of estrogen dominance, hypothyroidism, candida, SIBO, IBS, or toxic mold exposure - but even when trying to address these issues, you don't feel better? If so, this episode is for you. On today's episode, I'm diving into salicylate sensitivity. Salicylate sensitivity, or salicylate intolerance as called by some, is an issue that someone can develop for a variety of reasons, but is increasingly common in the chronically ill population. And, unfortunately, it is often overlooked or forgotten about by both conventional and holistic practitioners. That's why, in today's episode, I'm breaking down everything you need to know about salicylate sensitivity.

Stijn Schmitz welcomes Adrian Day to the show. Adrian Day is CEO of Adrian Day Asset Management & Manager of EuroPacific Gold Fund. Day sees the recent weakness in oil as a potential buying opportunity, particularly if a peace deal triggers a further short-term drop. He argues that beyond temporary disruptions, the underlying supply picture is bullish because oil has been chronically underinvested for years. With US shale production peaking and no clear new major source of global supply to meet consistent demand growth, he views a sustained move above $150 per barrel as a plausible base case. He is waiting for exaggerated drops in oil stocks to build positions, favoring companies with strong balance sheets. Broadening the discussion to the wider commodity complex, Day notes that resource stocks are near 100-year lows relative to the equity market. He identifies a long-term cycle shift where foreign markets are beginning to outperform the US after 15 years of underperformance, a trend he expects to continue for years. This rotation out of large-cap US tech into international value creates opportunities in deeply undervalued markets like the UK, Hong Kong, and Singapore. Regarding precious metals, Day believes gold and gold stocks currently offer the best risk/reward. Central bank and institutional buying remains price-agnostic and robust, driven by a strategic desire to diversify away from the dollar. While short-term interest rate narratives have held back some buyers, he argues that an eventual peace deal would allow rate cuts, which is very positive for gold. Valuations across royalty companies and mid-tier producers are historically attractive on free cash flow metrics. He advises clients with existing large allocations to hold firm, while those new to the sector should consider building substantial positions. Overall, Day sees gold as the best commodity to own now, even as other hard assets may eventually begin to outperform within the broader cycle.

Welcome to episode two of The Women's Health Wellness Edit — a brand new Slightly Spiritual mini series bringing you real, honest conversations with some of the top experts in women's health, longevity, hormones, brain health, and modern wellness. Because frankly? Too many women are being told their exhaustion, brain fog, anxiety, inflammation, and burnout are “normal” — and we think it's time for a deeper conversation. In today's episode, we sit down with Ariana Thacker, founder and CEO of MoldCo, for one of our most requested conversations yet: mold illness, mold exposure, mycotoxins, CIRS, and the hidden ways our environments can impact our health. Ariana shares her personal journey with mold illness and how it ultimately led her to build MoldCo, a healthcare technology platform dedicated to helping patients identify and navigate mold toxicity. Together, we dive into why so many people, especially women and children, are experiencing chronic symptoms while being told their labs look “normal,” and why mold illness is still so misunderstood in modern medicine. We discuss the difference between mold allergy and mold illness, common mold symptoms, symptoms of mold allergies, what mycotoxins actually are, and how mold exposure can impact everything from brain fog and fatigue to anxiety and inflammation. Ariana also explains how everyone in the same household can present completely differently, how does black mold affect you, and whether mold is dangerous for long-term health. Ariana breaks down colonized mold, the genetic component that can make some people more susceptible to mold illness, and why mold is often referred to as “the great mimicker.” This episode also covers: * Symptoms of mold allergies and how they differ from mold toxicity * Mold illness in children * Proper home testing and why air sampling alone often misses the full picture * Signs mold may be hiding in your home * Urinary mycotoxin testing and key biomarkers for mold illness * The Shoemaker Protocol and Dr. Shoemaker's work * Mold remediation tips and what to look for in a remediator * How to reduce mold exposure while traveling or living in a moldy environment * The truth about “black mold” vs. other toxic molds * Is mold dangerous? Understanding risk factors and susceptibility Whether you're actively navigating mold illness, questioning unexplained symptoms, researching mold exposure, or simply wanting to better protect your family's health, this episode is packed with practical information, validation, and actionable advice. As always, this episode is not intended to replace medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Please consult your healthcare provider regarding your individual health concerns.

How does an industry avoid accountability for decades while carrying tens of millions of passengers a year? It spends $70 million lobbying Congress. It hires former FBI and Coast Guard officials. It registers ships abroad to dodge U.S. taxes and jurisdiction. It fights reform legislation and wins. It settles lawsuits behind NDAs. And it issues identical zero-tolerance statements every time a crew member is caught. This final episode of Cruising with Predators names the machine. The money trail, the revolving door, the CVSSA's limitations, and the foreign-flag shield are all laid bare. Then the reforms: device screening, an international registry, prosecution before deportation, independent investigations, ending NDAs in cases involving minors, and licensing standards for youth programs. Each tied to a case from this series. The industry built this system. Families can demand it be rebuilt.

Step into a blow-me-away, thought-provoking, and deeply illuminating conversation with Dr. Richard Blake, psychologist, researcher, breathwork practitioner, and author of the upcoming book The Anxiety Industry, on this episode of Intimate Conversations: Dark Night to Divine Light. Dr. Blake is known for challenging modern therapy culture, questioning the narratives surrounding trauma and mental health, and bringing the conversation back to evidence, physiology, nervous system regulation, and true healing. Richard shares his own journey through severe anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation, binge eating disorder, and compulsive behaviors as a young man. While therapy helped him survive rock bottom, he eventually realized that talk-based approaches alone were not creating the deep transformation he longed for. That turning point led him into conscious connected breathwork, nervous system regulation, and eventually groundbreaking research, including the largest randomized controlled trial on breathwork to date. We explore the uncomfortable but important question at the center of his work: Why are mental illness rates increasing despite more therapy, awareness, and mental health conversations than ever before? Richard discusses what researchers call the "treatment prevalence paradox," where more people entering therapy has not led to lower rates of anxiety, depression, or mental illness, and how therapy culture may unintentionally reinforce victimhood, blame, helplessness, and identity around suffering! I agree! Richard also shares the fascinating science behind breathwork, psychedelics, and neuroplasticity, explaining how practices like conscious connected breathing can create profound shifts in the brain, increase resilience to stress, and help people break out of deeply conditioned emotional and behavioral patterns. Rather than endlessly analyzing the past, he emphasizes building tolerance for discomfort, strengthening the nervous system, and learning how to engage with life more directly and courageously. (YES!) We also talk about: -The rise of therapy culture and "trauma inflation" -Family estrangement and the unintended consequences of therapeutic language -Why nervous system dysregulation is not always trauma -The difference between validating feelings and reinforcing suffering -Breathwork, psychedelics, and how neuroplasticity actually works -Exposure therapy and learning to tolerate discomfort -The connection between stress resilience and mental health -Social media, comfort culture, and the collapse of meaning -Lifestyle habits that fuel anxiety, depression, and emotional fragility -The importance of community, purpose, movement, sleep, and embodiment -Hormesis, resilience, and why "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger" matters -How breath holds, meditation, and nervous system training increase emotional capacity -This friggin' fantastic aligned and enlivening episode is an invitation to question the stories we've inherited about healing, trauma, and mental health. It reminds us that growth is not about eliminating all discomfort, but learning how to stay present through it with greater capacity, awareness, and self-responsibility. I could have talked with this great man for hours! Dr. Blake's work calls us back into the body, back into reality, and back into the profound human ability to adapt, heal, and evolve.

About Richard Dr. Richard Blake has a PhD in psychology and is known for challenging the way mental health is discussed and treated today. His research focuses on anxiety, breathwork, and nervous system regulation, including the largest randomized controlled trial on conscious connected breathwork to date. He has built a following of over 113,000 on Instagram, where his evidence-based reels critiquing therapy culture, trauma inflation, and mental-health misinformation have gone viral. Alongside his research, his work on family estrangement examines how therapeutic language and ideology can shape relationships, often with unintended consequences. Richard's broader aim is to move mental health away from ideology and moral narratives, and back toward evidence, physiology, and approaches that genuinely help people recover rather than stay stuck.

Food allergy anxiety in kids is real, and it does not always look like fear. It can show up as tantrums, clinginess, control-seeking behaviors, or a child who refuses to eat at a restaurant. Child life specialist and therapist Kelsey Mora joins Kortney and Dr. Payel Gupta to unpack what is really going on. What we cover in our episode about managing anxiety in kids Food allergy anxiety does not always look like anxiety. Tantrums, clinginess, and control-seeking behaviors can all be signs that a child is struggling. Language matters from the start. How parents explain food allergies to young children can build confidence or quietly reinforce fear. Separation anxiety and food allergies are connected. Dependence on parents can make it harder for kids to navigate school, parties, and social situations on their own. Practicing independence at home builds real-world skills. Exposure to allergens in a safe home environment teaches confidence and communication skills kids need everywhere else. Passing parental anxiety onto kids. Co-regulation starts with the caregiver, when parents are anxious, kids have a harder time calming down.

Spending time in nature shifts your food preferences so you naturally choose healthier, whole foods without relying on willpower Even short, daily exposure to natural environments improves diet quality, making simple habits like walking outside highly effective Nature doesn't reduce how much you eat but changes what you want to eat, steering you away from processed foods toward real nourishment Exposure to nature increases how much you value your health in the moment, which directly influences better food decisions Using nature as a daily routine or pre-meal reset helps break stress-driven eating patterns and makes healthy eating easier to sustain
The mercury exposure from amalgam fillings is like eating one can of tuna every two months.
In this episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosts Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton talk about something every first responder deserves to understand but rarely gets explained in plain language: what repeated trauma exposure (Amazon Affiliate) actually does to the brain over time. This is not about being broken. This is about biology. When the brain is exposed to trauma repeatedly over the course of a career, it adapts — and those adaptations show up in ways that affect memory, emotion, relationships, decision-making, and physical health. Understanding what is happening inside your brain is one of the most important steps toward understanding yourself.

AP's Lisa Dwyer reports on deaths and illnesses in New Mexico, linked to an unknown substance.
The dominant structural shift highlighted in this episode is the migration of AI from experimental tools into directly embedded workflows within widely used small business platforms. Vendors like Anthropic, with its Claude for Small Business connectors to QuickBooks, HubSpot, Canva, Google Workspace, and Microsoft 365, are abstracting away technical complexity by offering concrete, prebuilt automations that address specific business processes. This embedding moves operational risk and ambiguity from model selection to the permissions layer, where control, oversight, and accountability become central concerns for providers supporting these environments. A key supporting development is Anthropic's rapid market penetration, with the VentureBeat-cited Ramp AI Index reporting 34.4% business adoption of Claude in the US—outpacing OpenAI's 32.3%. The implication, reinforced by research from the Global Technology Industry Association, is that AI service revenue is rising sharply, but only 30% of IT service providers in the UK and Ireland report fully integrating AI into their models. Simultaneously, governance gaps are being exposed: The Register notes user data may be employed for model training unless privacy settings are proactively changed, leaving operational risk exposed through default configurations. Additional developments reinforce the risk and accountability shift. OpenAI has established a subsidiary focused on direct deployments and implementation, seeking to guarantee quality and consistency in enterprise integration. CIO Dive references Palo Alto Networks research indicating 77% of CIOs claim AI risk management confidence, yet only 30% have real usage visibility, and 62% cite rogue agent concerns. The discussion connects these risks back to routine SMB operations, where AI-enabled workflows can act on core business data, increasing MSP proximity to liability and making explicit who controls connectors, permissions, and incident response documentation. For MSPs and IT service firms, the operational consequence is that supporting AI-enabled platforms now obligates them to establish and document governance, inventory, data access, and approval processes. Risk shifts from abstract model performance to concrete operational exposure, especially as AI systems interconnect with finance, identity, communication, and other high-stakes subsystems. Providers lacking scoped service definitions and contractual clarity face unpriced liability, while those that implement billable AI governance frameworks—such as audit templates, privacy reviews, and incident-ready contracts—are positioned to address demand from clients, auditors, and insurers. Neglecting these steps is likely to result in exposure to vendor-driven terms and diminished operational standing. 00:00 Workflow Takeover 04:20 Readiness Crisis 06:24 Govern or Expose 11:13 Why Do We Care?

Burn pit exposure has become one of the most widely discussed environmental health concerns affecting veterans who served in Iraq, Afghanistan, and other deployment locations. These open-air burn pits were commonly used to dispose of waste, creating complex airborne mixtures of smoke, particulate matter, and combustion byproducts.In this episode, we explore the science behind burn pit exposure and how it may affect the health of veterans. We discuss the types of materials that were burned, the potential toxic substances produced during combustion, and how inhaled particles can impact the respiratory system and other parts of the body.Understanding the biological and environmental science behind burn pits can help provide context for why many veterans continue to experience long-term health concerns following deployment.Topics CoveredWhat burn pits were and how they were used during deploymentsMaterials commonly burned in military burn pitsAirborne particles and toxic byproducts from combustionHow inhaled pollutants can affect the respiratory systemWhy burn pit exposure has become a major concern in veteran health
Ask David: Is High Speed Change a Quick Fix? Trauma, Anxiety, and What Really Works Hosts: Kevin Cornelius, LMFT Dr. David Burns Guest: Dr. Rhonda Barovsky Episode Summary In this powerful Ask David episode, Dr. David Burns, Kevin Cornelius, and Dr. Rhonda Barovsky tackle two deeply important listener questions: Is rapid emotional recovery just a "quick fix," especially for people with severe trauma? How can someone manage intense anxiety and "what if" thoughts in the moment—when they keep coming back? Through vivid clinical stories, real examples from the Feeling Great app, and live demonstrations of TEAM-CBT techniques, the panel explores why working in the present moment can lead to profound and lasting emotional change—even for people with severe trauma histories. Question 1: Is Fast Change Just a "Quick Fix"? Dr. Burns responds to a question inspired by the story of Elise, a Holocaust survivor who recovered from severe depression after challenging a single, devastating belief: "I've never accomplished anything meaningful in my life." When that belief was overturned, Elise's depression disappeared—immediately. Listeners often wonder: Was something deeper left unresolved? Doesn't trauma require long-term exploration of the past? Dr. Burns shares: 50 years of clinical experience producing rapid, measurable symptom elimination Research from the Feeling Great app showing that current thoughts—not past suffering—predict change Why working in the present moment automatically transforms the past Why many therapy schools rely on belief systems rather than data He also discusses new findings (recently published in Psychology Today) showing that prior depression over the last two years adds zero predictive value once current mood and thoughts are addressed. "The moment you're in is vastly more important than the one you remember." Question 2: What If My Anxious Thoughts Keep Coming Back? The second question comes from Dina, a college student overwhelmed by social anxiety and catastrophic "what if" thoughts about meeting with her professor. Despite successfully completing a Daily Mood Log and reducing her anxiety to near zero, Dina finds that the thoughts keep returning in real-life situations. The team explains why this happens—and what to do next. Key strategies discussed: Why cognitive work alone isn't enough for anxiety The importance of exposure and testing fears in real situations Using self-disclosure to dissolve shame Turning anxiety into connection rather than avoidance Role-playing feared scenarios ("Professor from Hell") Externalization of voices Feared fantasy and "what-if" techniques Shame-attacking exercises Asking for real feedback instead of guessing what others think Identifying hidden emotions (such as unexpressed anger) Understanding interpersonal roles and rules that fuel anxiety Multiple techniques are demonstrated live, showing how anxiety collapses when fears are brought into the open with warmth, humor, and honesty. Key Takeaways Rapid emotional change is not a gimmick—it can be measured, replicated, and sustained Trauma is embedded in the present moment, not trapped in the past Anxiety persists when we hide, not when we feel Exposure + self-disclosure = freedom You don't need to eliminate negative thoughts—just stop believing them The Feeling Great app offers free, evidence-based tools anyone can use Tools & Resources Mentioned Feeling Great App (free): https://feelinggreat.com Daily Mood Log TEAM-CBT tools: Motivational Methods Cognitive Techniques Exposure Hidden Emotion Work Five Secrets of Effective Communication Psychology Today article: "The Moment You're In Is Vastly More Important Than the One You Remember" Memorable Quotes "When we change the present, we change the past." — Dr. David Burns "Shame is like a vampire—it can't survive the light of day." "Stop doing one thing and expecting it to work for everyone." "You don't need to be perfect to feel better." Listener Invitation Have a question you'd like Dr. Burns to answer on a future episode?

In this episode, Dr. K explores the psychological profiles of iconic fictional characters like Eren Yeager and Joe Goldberg before sitting down with an expert for a deep dive into the reality of Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD). He examines how trauma, stunted development, and personality disorders manifest in media and what these portrayals can teach us about real-world mental health. What to expect in this episode: Eren Yeager and Moral Injury: An analysis of the trauma of being forced to commit "vile acts" and how dehumanizing others serves as a survival mechanism to avoid falling apart. Joe Goldberg's Limerence: Why the star of You is a terrifying example of limerence (falling in love with a fantasy) combined with sociopathy, leading to a "morality of a pedestal" that ignores actual empathy. Michael Scott's Stunted Development: How the Dunder Mifflin manager acts as an "alien trying to be human" because he lacks a healthy template for relationships despite being world-class at a specific skill like sales. Saul Goodman and the Gambling Brain: A look at why some brilliant individuals fail to learn from their mistakes due to a deficit in counterfactual thinking and a drive to prioritize a "flashy fantasy" of success over actual stability. Levi Ackerman and Clinical Thresholds: Why being obsessively clean does not necessarily mean someone has OCD if they lack impaired function and ritualistic compulsions. Expert Guest Dr. McGrath: Dr. K is joined by Dr. Patrick McGrath, a clinical psychologist with over 26 years of experience specializing in OCD and Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) therapy. The Reality of NOCD: An introduction to NOCD, a specialized online platform for OCD treatment that has been vetted by the Healthy Gamer scientific advisory board to provide evidence-based care. The Doubting Disorder: Dr. McGrath explains how OCD attacks the things people value most—such as religion (scrupulosity) or children—by using "what if" scenarios to trap individuals in a loop of searching for answers that don't exist. Living with Uncertainty: Why the gold standard treatment, ERP, focuses on teaching the brain to accept doubt rather than providing logical answers that the "OCD monster" would otherwise "eat for breakfast".

OCD is a difficult condition to navigate, but it becomes significantly more challenging when obsessions center on taboo topics. Themes involving harm, pedophilia (pOCD), sexual orientation (HOCD), or moral and religious failure often carry a heavy burden of shame. This shame frequently drives people into silence, preventing them from seeking the help they need.---Want to talk about this episode with Drew, Josh, and other members of the Disordered community that share your struggle?https://disordered.fm/community---In this episode, Drew is joined by Jess Marriner, an OCD specialist based in the UK. They discuss why the human brain can latch onto these specific themes and why having a "taboo" thought does not reflect your character or your actual desires.Key Topics Discussed:The Nature of Taboo Thoughts: Recognizing that intrusive thoughts about harm or socially unacceptable acts are common mental occurrences and do not make you a dangerous person.The Role of Shame: How the socially unacceptable nature of these themes feeds the OCD cycle and keeps sufferers isolated.Common Compulsions: Identifying sneaky mental rituals like reassurance seeking, thought neutralizing, and "testing" to see if a thought feels true.Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP): How to approach treatment by leaning into the discomfort and uncertainty rather than fighting the content of the thoughts.The Goal of Recovery: Moving from a state of constant panic and checking to a place where thoughts are seen as irrelevant mental noise.If you are struggling with taboo obsessions, this conversation highlights that you are not alone and that recovery is possible through evidence-based approaches like ERP and acceptance-based strategies.---The Disordered Guide to Health Anxiety is now available.

Our Global Chief Economist and Head of Macro Strategy Seth Carpenter gives his midyear outlook, highlighting why AI investment and U.S. consumers remain key growth engines amid energy shocks.Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript -----Seth Carpenter: Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Seth Carpenter, Morgan Stanley's Global Chief Economist and Head of Macro Research. Today, I want to talk about our mid-year outlook that was just published. It's Thursday, May 14th at 10am in New York. Oil, AI, and the consumer now sit at the center of our global economic outlook. With AI and the consumer driving economic momentum in the U.S., the key question is whether the energy shock stays manageable or changes the path for inflation, central banks, and recession risks. We have had and maintain a fundamentally constructive view on global growth, but the energy shock brings unusually high uncertainty. It boosts inflation, it weighs on growth, and it widens the range of outcomes. We forecast global real GDP growth at 3.2 percent in 2026 and 3.4 percent in 2027. That is relative to about 3.5 percent in 2025. So, in our baseline, growth slows modestly this year and then stabilizes and recovers. Writing a forecast is always hard but knowing what to assume about oil prices is even harder than ever now. Our base case assumes that crude returns to about $90 a barrel by the end of this year and declines further in 2027. If, and I do mean if, that happens, the global economy can likely absorb the shock. But if the current situation persists and we do not see a normalization of shipments of oil, it could spell recession. That scenario probably sees oil prices surge through $150 a barrel, but more importantly, we could shift from a price shock to a volume shock. The big risk is physical shortages and supply chain disruptions because it's not just energy, it's also petrochemical inputs to manufacturing and other items. Higher prices slow activity; shortages can stop it. Exposure to the energy shock differs sharply across regions. Among the major economies, China looks the least exposed. Europe is the most exposed, and the U.S. sits in between. China built up substantial stockpiles of oil, and part of why the global oil market has not seen higher oil prices so far is that China has cut back on those imports dramatically. Europe, on the other hand, typically faces faster energy passthrough, meaning energy prices show up much more quickly in household bills, business costs, and ultimately inflation. And Europe is a net importer of energy, so the consideration goes beyond oil to include natural gas. The U.S. is a net exporter of petroleum products, but U.S. consumers will feel the pinch at the gas pump. But even with that in mind, U.S. growth continues to support global growth, thanks largely to strong AI-related capital spending and consumer spending that's being buoyed by the top end of the wealth distribution. We expect that momentum to continue and then ultimately to broaden out. And so we forecast U.S. real GDP growth at about 2.25 in 2026 but rising to about 2.5 percent in 2027. Both of those are up from the 2.1 percent we saw last year. And AI CapEx sits at the center of this U.S. outlook. It includes data centers, power infrastructure, information processing equipment, software. Over time, we think this investment momentum is part of what allows a broadening out of business investment beyond AI. That said, the energy shock has triggered global inflation. We're looking for global headline inflation to rise notably almost to 3 percent in 2026 before coming back off in 2027. But while oil and gas prices are pushing headline inflation higher, the pass-through to core, depending on the economy, seems to remain mostly limited. By 2027, we look for those effects to fade. And combined with somewhat slower growth this year, underlying inflation should soften again. As inflation risks have moved higher, though, central banks have generally become less accommodative. We expect the Fed to now stay on hold all the way through 2026, and then if inflation really does come down, to be able to cut twice in the first half of 2027. We're looking for the ECB to hike twice this year as it grapples with this energy-led inflation, but then reverse course next year in 2027. The Bank of Japan, which had already been hiking policy, probably is set to continue that gradual hiking path. Looking forward to the second half of this year though, global growth still does have a foundation, and the U.S. is a big part of that. AI investment and consumer spending are all what's driving the economy for now. But the energy outlook will determine how bumpy that path gets. Thanks for listening. And if you enjoy this show, please leave us a review wherever you listen and share Thoughts on the Market with a friend or colleague today.
Visibility is not the same as leverage. Just because more people see me doesn't mean I'm in a stronger position. In this episode, I break down how overexposure actually makes me weaker, not stronger. When I'm too available and too easy to access, I lose control, mystery, and value. What people see all the time becomes easier to question, judge, and ignore, so I have to be intentional about when and how I show up. Show Notes: [02:19]#1 Overexposure invites scrutiny without consequence. [09:52]#2 Constant exposure collapses leverage into availability. [14:01]#3 Exposure without restraint turns the signal into noise. [16:25] Recap Next Steps: --- Execution is not a talent. It is a measurable standard. If your results don't match your ability, you are not lacking information—you are lacking execution reliability. The Execution Reliability Index (ERI) identifies exactly where your discipline breaks, where your standards drop, and where your results are leaking. This is not theory. This is a system.

Diversification sounds straightforward in theory, but in practice, portfolios don't behave the way most people expect them to. Exposure is layered, concentration often shows up in places that aren't immediately obvious, and decisions that feel like you're spreading risk can quietly lead to doubling down on the same themes. Once you start looking at portfolios this way, the question shifts. It's no longer just about what to add, but whether that exposure already exists, and what role it's actually playing. In this episode of Money School Elite, I sit down with Jonathan Steele, who manages over $1.3 billion in assets, to unpack how modern portfolios are actually structured and why many of the assumptions investors rely on don't always hold up. Jonathan works closely with high-net-worth clients, helping them think about capital not as a collection of individual positions, but as a system of exposures that interact in ways that aren't always obvious. We get into why Bitcoin and precious metals are often grouped incorrectly, how indirect exposure through index positions can lead to unintended concentration, and why holding cash in the current environment is less about being defensive and more about maintaining flexibility while still earning a return. About the Guest Jonathan Steele, CFA®, is Co-founder and Chief Investment Officer at One Wealth Advisors, where he leads investment research and portfolio management for high-net-worth clients. With over 20 years of experience, Jonathan specializes in portfolio construction, tactical and strategic asset allocation, and behavioral finance. As a Chartered Financial Analyst® and member of the CFA Institute, his work focuses on how portfolios are structured and how different exposures interact within a broader system. Outside of investing, Jonathan is deeply involved in the arts, having served on the advisory boards of Bard Music West and Vanguard Music and Performing Arts. He also mentors students across finance, technology, and engineering, and supports local organizations, including Muttville Senior Dog Rescue and the SF SPCA.

You're probably spending too much on travel baseball for the wrong reasons — and the people telling you it's necessary are the ones who benefit when you do. MLB agent Matt Hannaford answers three listener questions that hit the same nerve every travel ball parent shares: how much is too much, when does specialization actually make sense, and what do you do when a coach is treating your kid unfairly. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN - Why no college coach or pro scout is watching your 11-year-old play — and what that means for where to spend your money - The hierarchy most travel ball families have backwards: exposure, competition, development — and why flipping it is the only path that actually works - When sport specialization makes sense (and the warning sign that it's happening too early) - The Tommy John surgery reality nobody tells you about — and why a 13-year-old with a torn UCL has a problem his parents don't understand yet - How to talk to a youth coach about playing time without your kid paying the price Matt opens with a question from Steve, a parent who just paid $3,200 for summer travel ball for his 11-year-old son and is staring down another $7,000 of expenses this year. Matt's answer reframes the entire spending conversation. No college coach is scouting 11-year-olds. No pro scout is scouting 11-year-olds. The only people scouting 11-year-olds are other travel ball programs trying to recruit your kid into the next paid tier. From there, Matt walks through the development-first hierarchy and explains why it has to come before competition and exposure, not after. He uses Brandon Nimmo as a real example — a first-round MLB draft pick who came out of Wyoming and barely attended any showcase events in high school. The lesson: if your son is good enough, they will find him. The events most parents are told they have to attend are not the gatekeepers parents think they are. Rick's question follows: his 10-year-old's travel coach is telling the family to drop soccer and focus on baseball year-round. Matt pulls from his own multi-sport background — hockey, baseball, basketball, football — and from the Aspen Institute research on youth burnout to explain why early specialization is being sold to families who do not need it. He shares a story from his own client base: a travel ball coach whose player tore his UCL after a parent ignored a rest warning and took the kid to play in another team's tournament. The doctor's recommendation: put baseball down for six years. The final question comes from Sean, whose son was moved to batting ninth after one fielding error — despite hitting .380. Matt names what is actually happening here. Coaches do not move hitters down for a defensive error. That is a coach with an axe to grind, not a coaching decision. He gives parents and high school players a step-by-step framework for the conversation: do not complain about lineup spot, ask what specifically the coach needs to see for trust to be earned back, and hold the coach accountable to his own answer. The episode covers college recruiting timing, the WWBA tournament in Atlanta, Perfect Game events in Jupiter, and what USA Baseball selection actually looks like. ABOUT THE SHOW Matt Hannaford is an MLB agent with 26 years representing Major League Baseball players. He gives you the insider playbook on travel baseball, college recruiting, the transfer portal, and MLB Draft decisions so you can navigate the system with confidence and stop being sold to.

State health officials say they're monitoring a Minnesotan who may have been exposed to hantavirus. The person was briefly in contact with a cruise ship traveler who tested positive for the virus. The Minnesota Department of Health says the individual is not currently showing symptoms and the risk to the public remains very low. Hantavirus is normally passed on by rodents but the Andes strain linked to the cruise ship outbreak is the only known type that can spread person-to-person. Dr. Ruth Lynfield, epidemiologist at the Minnesota Department of Health, shared more about the steps being taken and what to know about the virus.

“Love as Luxury, Vulnerability as Liability” Modern love has become dangerous because real intimacy no longer threatens loneliness first — it threatens image control. People say they want love, but many only want admiration with no audit, desire with no discovery, attachment with no exposure, and closeness with no consequences. The moment love begins seeing too clearly, the ego calls it unsafe. Today's topic confronts the brutal contradiction: modern people crave intimacy while structuring their identities around avoiding the very vulnerability intimacy requires. Love becomes a luxury because only the emotionally resourced can afford to be seen without turning visibility into shame, control, withdrawal, manipulation, or performance. Everybody else enters love pre-defended, already calculating leverage, exit routes, bargaining power, and reputational risk. Real love creates witnesses. It notices the pattern behind the personality, the fear beneath the standard, the manipulation beneath the boundary, the grief beneath independence, the child beneath the cool pose. That kind of seeing can feel like social demotion in a culture that rewards emotional concealment as strength. So people protect the mask and sacrifice the connection. They call avoidance peace. They call control discernment. They call emotional withholding power. They call fear standards. They mistake being desired for being known, and then wonder why intimacy feels expensive. The question is not whether love is enough. The deeper question is: can the modern ego survive being loved without turning that love into a liability?
Following some love for Love on the Spectrum, we discuss a listener question from the mom of a 13 year-old who is worn out from her child's OCD and panic. Is it time to let the nervous system “cool off” and give her daughter a break from a challenging upcoming event?
