How do you truly fall in love — not just with another person, but with life itself? In this inspiring talk, Rev. Lee Wolak explores the spiritual truth that every relationship is a mirror, reflecting what we already believe about ourselves.

Discover how to shift limiting beliefs, open your heart, and embody self-worth so that love flows naturally into every area of your life. This video will help you uncover how your inner dialogue shapes your outer relationships, and how conscious awareness can transform loneliness, self-doubt, and fear into connection, joy, and intimacy.

A new generation is falling in love with a centuries-old game. These women 65 and older clean local ponds by diving for trash (and have a blast doing it). She lost her dad in the Twin Towers – but the FDNY made sure he was still part of her wedding day. A doctor was told he would die, but he found a treatment for his disease everyone else had missed. Plus, the music program that teaches kids jazz and so much more. Sign up for the CNN 5 Good Things newsletter here.

In this continuation of our matrix series, we go deeper into three interwoven constructs - healthcare, banks/money, and so-called “artificial intelligence” - and how they function as false authorities only because we hand them our power. This isn't a hit piece on people. It's an illumination of ideas. As I say up front, I'm fiery - earth and fire in my blueprint - but I'm not condemning. Good/bad, right/wrong are outdated frames. Like Morpheus says, the matrix is a prison for the mind, a shadow we mistake for the body. I'm pointing at the shadow so you can see the light.We begin with healthcare. I share the story of visiting friends and being struck by the drumbeat of pharmaceutical commercials - slick narratives that say, “You're doing the natural things - eating real food, moving your body - and it's still not enough. Take the pill.” I offer a personal example: my dad was put on a preventative cholesterol drug even without high cholesterol, and later told it would be “dangerous” to stop. The point isn't that doctors are villains; it's that the system replicates nature poorly and becomes self-serving. I highlight the placebo effect to illustrate the mind's role in healing and argue that much of the system is a copy of true health. When we forget this, we surrender authority to white coats and acronyms instead of listening to our bodies and living in simple alignment - real food, movement, sunlight, and rest.From there we move to banks and money. In nature, value flows through exchange - what I have in excess covers your lack, and vice versa. Tribes live this way. Yet we've assigned a monetary price to everything - food, water, land - and then centralized the levers (interest, inflation, access) so thoroughly that abundance dies on the vine. I contrast U.S. food waste with global hunger to show the distortion: it's not that we can't share; it's that we won't because the price tag says no. I'm not calling that evil - I'm asking us to look at results. I point to cryptocurrency as a tool that could move us toward sounder exchange and, ultimately, a world with less need for currency at all, and I mention the Venus Project as a vision of resource-based living driven by available technology.Finally, we tackle “AI.” I call artificial intelligence an oxymoron: what is artificial isn't intelligent, and what is intelligent isn't artificial. In practice, it's a confirmation-bias mirror - the apex of human narcissism - polishing and returning our own beliefs. I've seen people get opposite “truths” from their bots based on what they feed them. When we treat that mirror as an oracle, we don't become wiser; we outsource discernment. I even note emerging pathologies like people falling in love with their bots—a sign of isolation and self-infatuation the matrix rewards.The through-line is authority. Government, corporations, religions, healthcare, banks, and “AI” are not mothers and fathers. They are ideas - useful only when they serve life. I don't vote, not out of apathy, but because I refuse to abdicate self-governance. As Jurassic Park warned, we were so busy asking if we could that we didn't ask if we should. Let's ask now. Next week I'll share what I do believe - practical, life-giving shifts we can embody so the matrix serves through us, not over us.Elevate your alpha, brothers.
Who do you put your faith in?In the 1930s, as war approached in Europe, the British loved their monarchs. The royal family has been beloved for generations, and King Edward the 8th was ready to take his place on the throne after the death of his father.The people loved the dashing young king, and he seemed to enjoy his role.Then he fell in love.Falling in love isn't a bad thing, even for kings, but Edward loved an American woman who was divorced. In royal society, that just wasn't done. So, in an amazing decision, Edward abdicated! He left the throne less than a year after assuming power.1 Timothy 1:17, “All honor and glory to God forever and ever! He is the eternal King, the unseen one who never dies; he alone is God. Amen.”Earthly kings come and go, but Jesus Christ will never abdicate. He will never abandon His duties. In fact, His famous sacrifice on the cross would not have been offered by any earthly king.It was too costly.Put your faith in the eternal King today.Let's pray.Lord, we have confidence in you that you will never abandon us. Thank you for your eternal love and that of your Son, Jesus. Amen. Change your shirt, and you can change the world!

This week, Scott sat down with his Lawfare colleagues Benjamin Wittes and Natalie Orpett, and Professor of Law at Cardozo Law School Rebecca Ingber, to talk through the week's big national security news, including:“Uninvited Aerial Vehicles.” The Polish government is claiming that nineteen armed Russian UAVs penetrated its airspace last night. While Russians are suggesting no attack was intended, Poland has invoked Article IV of the NATO Treaty and worked with allied NATO aircraft to shoot the drones down. What might be happening here? And does it mean we're on our way to World War III as some are suggesting?“Bibi is a Killer Negotiator. No, Wait—Switch That.” Within days of the Trump administration tabling another ceasefire proposal—and, by some accounts, making progress in pressuring Hamas to accept it—Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu authorized a set of missile strikes that killed the leaders of Hamas's political wing in nearby Qatar. It's the first such move in a Gulf country, many of which have moved towards normalization with Israel through the Trump-backed Abraham Accords. What explains Israel's actions? And what do they portend for the conflict in Gaza and the region as a whole?“Cruise Control.” A week has passed since the Trump administration took the controversial step of targeting a boat alleged to be smuggling narcotics at the direction of the Venezuelan criminal organization Tren de Aragua with lethal force. The Trump administration hasn't repeated the move, but it's said it intends to. And U.S. military assets—including strategic assets whose use in a counter-narcotics military campaign is far from clear—have continued to build up in the region, leading some to believe that a broader campaign against Venezuela itself may yet be in the offing. How likely is a broader campaign? And could its implications be, legally and politically? In Object Lessons, Ben is cheering on a cadre of former FBI agents suing Kash Patel over their firings, and in the process, sings the praises of an accidental hero—the “Drizz.” Natalie, meanwhile, gets très littéraire with “The Elegance of the Hedgehog,” by Muriel Barbery—a book so French that almost nothing happens. Scott rang in his 8th wedding anniversary the traditional way: getting drunk in the basement and falling in love all over again—with The Paper. And Bec wonders just how much coin it's going to take to change the Department of Defense to the Department of War.To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.

Over the course of 15 years, Shafik Meghji traveled repeatedly to South America, falling in love with the continent and in particular with Buenos Aires, which he came to feel was his second home. Traveling from London, Shafik noticed that Britain came up a lot on his travels; the eerie hulk of a Harrods branch in central Buenos Aires, the rusting shells of British buses on the salt flats of Bolivia, and the surnames of the descendants of settlers hanging out in Patagonia. The result is Small Earthquakes: A Journey Through Lost British History in South America - Published last month by Hurst Publishers, to wide acclaim. Shafik joins the Travel Writing Podcast to talk about how the book came to be, to geek out on his influences such as Bruce Chatwin, and to bring writers behind the scenes on his publishing journey.
It's Arthouse Tuesday! Our favorite day of the week. (Although Fridays are pretty cool, too.) Here's what we have for you on this quick, mid-week pop-in: "The History of Sound," a queer romance set during World War I. Paul Mescal and Josh O'Connor co-star as students at a Boston music conservatory who travel New England recording folk songs and falling in love. It's in theaters this weekend, so this is an early review. "Twinless." which we try very hard not to spoil. Writer/director/co-star James Sweeney and Dylan O'Brien play strangers who meet at a support group for twins who've lost a sibling. The less you know about this movie, the better, but trust us when we say that you should see it. Keep an eye (and an ear) out for Friday's episode, when we'll talk about "The Long Walk," "Spinal Tap II: The End Continues," and "Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale." Plus Movie News LIVE!

Bishop James Conley was raised Presbyterian, and studied Applied Humanities at Kansas University in the 1970's, falling in love with the Great Books. That led him to become Catholic his junior year of college. He traveled Europe for a bit after that, considering a monastic vocation, before following a call to diocesan priesthood, and eventually becoming an ordained bishop. He has since become increasingly passionate about the importance of solid Catholic education, and a powerful voice in regard to caring for mental and spiritual health in the context of the sacramental life.

As Lyra flees through New York's predawn streets with mysterious Kai Thorne, she learns the devastating truth about her nature: she's a Siren, one of the last of an ancient bloodline whose voices can compel truth and obedience. While Kai reveals his own supernatural heritage as a "Listener" tasked with monitoring dangerous voices, their growing attraction creates a dangerous resonance between their abilities.When Kai confesses he's been listening to her broadcasts for eight months and may be falling in love with her voice, Lyra must grapple with whether their connection is real or supernatural compulsion. But before she can learn to control her awakening abilities, the Order tracks them to Kai's secret safe house, forcing Lyra to make an impossible choice: use the most dangerous Siren technique she's never been trained for, or watch both of them die. As armed agents storm the building, Lyra must find her Command Voice and pray she doesn't destroy the man trying to save her.Become a premium subscriber! (no ads and no feed drops).

Barney Mauleverer embodies a life philosophy of putting yourself in luck's path through curiosity and generalist thinking. Rather than following a linear career plan, he embraced chaos and uncertainty in his twenties, taking seemingly random jobs that ultimately built the foundation for entrepreneurial success. His approach centers on listening first - understanding what customers and buyers actually need before developing solutions.At the core of his philosophy is the belief that entrepreneurs are the true risk-takers who deserve recognition, not the buyers and investors often treated as industry gods. He advocates for open collaboration over competitive secrecy, viewing global challenges like population growth as opportunities for innovation rather than insurmountable problems. ~His current Future of Food initiative reflects this worldview - creating platforms for entrepreneurs to share knowledge and collectively address industry challenges while championing the next generation of food innovators.Key TakeawaysEmbrace being a generalist - Multiple interests and skills can be a superpower rather than a weakness in entrepreneurshipPut yourself in luck's path - Take varied experiences and stay curious about different opportunities to create your own breaksListen before you sell - Understand customer pain points and buyer motivations before developing products or pitchesPre-sell the vision - Test market demand with concepts before investing heavily in product development and manufacturingThink like your buyer - Consider what success looks like for the person across the table, not just what you want to achieveFail forward strategically - Use disasters and rejections as learning opportunities rather than endpointsBuild from customer need - Start with solving real problems rather than falling in love with your own product ideasChampion the risk-takers - Recognize entrepreneurs as the true drivers of innovation rather than treating buyers and investors as godsCollaborate openly - Share knowledge and work together on industry-wide challenges rather than hoarding competitive advantagesFocus on opportunity over problems - Frame global challenges like population growth and resource constraints as innovation opportunities rather than insurmountable issues Daring Creativity.

There is a moment in most book to movie adaptations where the people who read the book just throw up their hands and communally yell, “Come on! That's totally not how it is in the book.” It drives us MAD to see these moments—especially after falling in love with a book series.
If preaching the gospel has become a chore for you or if you're left feeling guilty that you're not proclaiming the gospel enough, there is a fundamental problem. Pastor Ricky will be explaining that the problem is simply that you're not spending time communing and falling in love with Jesus. When you experience the love of God and you're being filled with His Holy Spirit, you have the joy of the Lord and can't help but proclaim His goodness to those around you.
There are moments in life worth a lifetime. In that moment when the universe tells you to be daring, to be brave, you better listen. It might just be that that moment will change the course of your life. And then after, you will find yourself falling in love.

With sprawling 1,750-acre grounds and a record-setting 12,000-foot runway, CCK stood as America's most significant Taiwan base during the Vietnam War. At times hosting as many as 8,000 U.S. troops, CCK was a vital airpower logistics hub. From its prime spot near Taichung, CCK orchestrated major Southeast Asian airlift missions, including iconic long-range C‑130 flights. In this week's episode, we focus on two “inside story” books, the best of which is Made in Taiwan: A Naïve American's Chaotic Journey to Manhood in an Exotic Culture During Radical Times – by TC Brown, a former U.S. Air Force police officer. Brown's book is full of stories about the gritty realities connected to Taiwan's forgotten Vietnam War-era American stronghold: from falling in love with bargirls to racial tensions and marijuana smuggling. And, we're happy to say the author will be chatting with us next week. Follow, review, comment, share... it makes a difference! Thanks.

Lisa Bilyeu is joined by the renowned neuroscientist, Stanford professor, and podcast host Dr. Andrew Huberman. Known for his expertise in brain science and his unique ability to make complex topics accessible, Andrew brings a much-needed perspective to the question: What are men really thinking? With honesty, a deep respect for nuance, and a bit of humor, Andrew answers Lisa's burning questions about the male brain, uncovering the scientific and social factors that drive men's behavior in relationships, love, and life. Part 1 dives deep into the neuroscience of falling in love, the impact of male genetics and hormones, and the evolving dynamics of masculinity. From the infamous “what would happen if?” drive that propels so many men, to the complexity of competitiveness, hierarchy, and vulnerability, Lisa and Andrew explore what it means to be male today—and why understanding these truths matters for women striving to build better relationships. Whether you're curious about male motivation, the stereotype of emotional unavailability, or just want more compassion across the gender divide, this conversation is packed with revelations and practical wisdom.

For me, mastering the art of no-strings-attached sex was a total accident. Since I first wrote about dating Mexican men, I've been looking for a boyfriend on Bumble (i.e., a long-term, monogamish relationship). While my profile says I'm looking for “a fun, serious relationship with someone who lives in Mexico City,” that endeavor has proven to be very difficult. So I've been making casual pit stops into random men's pants to maintain my sanity and have a little fun.Today I'm going to share my very pseudo-scientific logic on how women aren't destined to be bonded forever to every guy we fucked.Come back for more…

When Getting Fired Becomes Your Greatest Gift: The Creative Breakthrough That Changed Everything What happens when losing your job becomes the catalyst for finding your true calling? Artist and author James McCrae reveals how getting fired from his corporate advertising position launched him from unemployed executive to viral social media sensation, transforming his relationship with creativity and authenticity in the process. After years as a brand strategist in New York City, McCrae found himself at a crossroads when his entire department was eliminated during a corporate acquisition. Instead of frantically job hunting, he made a decision that would change his life: he sat in meditation and asked what wanted to be born through him. The Artist’s Journey: From Small Town to Social Media Success McCrae’s creative journey began in small-town Minnesota, where poetry served as his escape and a way to “create new worlds and explore the universe in much more depth” than his surroundings offered. His path meandered through painting, graphic design, and eventually corporate brand strategy, where he describes “sneaking into the business world through the back door as an artist.” The turning point came when he started creating social media content and memes that began going viral. Rather than viewing social media as merely a marketing tool, McCrae transformed these platforms into his personal “art gallery of digital art and poetry.” The Yin and Yang of Creative Expression McCrae introduces a revolutionary framework for understanding creativity through the ancient concept of yin and yang. He argues that our society has created an overemphasis on “yang” energy (doing, productivity, action) while neglecting the essential “yin” energy (receptivity, stillness, pure potentiality). “All doing begins with non-doing,” McCrae explains, comparing creativity to farming. “You want to make art, but you can’t start by growing crops. You need to tend the soil, plant the seeds, and water the soil first.” This approach involves removing distractions and cultivating mindfulness through practices like meditation, spending time in nature, and consuming art. McCrae’s breakthrough came when he began a serious mindfulness practice in New York City, discovering meditation, yoga, and Eastern philosophy that helped him “tune out all the distractions and tune into my own inner being.” From Ego to Intuition: The Art of Inner Listening McCrae distinguishes between ego-driven and intuition-driven creativity, describing the ego as speaking “like an alarm going off or like a dog barking,” while intuition whispers quietly “almost more of a feeling than it is a thought.” His daily practice involves meditating each morning before writing, then “taking dictation from the muse” rather than forcing ideas. He emphasises that creation and editing must be separate processes: “You should not write and edit at the same time. They’re completely different mindsets.” The Vulnerability Revolution: Why Authenticity Goes Viral McCrae’s breakthrough moment came when he stopped trying to project a perfect image and started sharing his authentic self. While other self-help authors played it safe, he began posting what he calls “apocalyptic poetry” and “sarcastic existential memes.” “I’m just going to allow myself full permission to be an artist and express myself however I want,” he decided. The result was explosive: “I started really going viral online. Suddenly, I was getting thousands of followers every day, and people were reposting my memes all over the internet.” His key insight: “You can be yourself much better than you can be anyone else. There’s only one you.” This authenticity created what he calls intimacy with his audience, proving that “people are hungry for something that’s honest and real and valuable.” Redefining Creative Blocks and Writer’s Block McCrae challenges the concept of writer’s block, reframing it as simply having nothing ready to come out. “Creative expression is like a purge,” he explains. “You’re purging this energy that’s built up in you.” When creativity feels stuck, his solution isn’t to force it but to “fill up your cup of inspiration” through life experiences: reading, visiting art museums, travelling, falling in love, or getting your heart broken. “Writer’s block is more like your well is empty and you need to go out and experience emotions and novel experiences.” The Power of Emotional Intelligence in Creativity “There’s no creativity without vulnerability,” McCrae states, emphasising that emotions are “way more intelligent than our thoughts.” He compares thinking purely with the mind to “fishing in a shallow pond,” while accessing emotions allows you to fish “in a deep ocean where you can catch much more exotic, beautiful fish.” This emotional depth provides access to the subconscious mind, which McCrae describes as “full of so many more insights and ideas than the conscious mind.” Social Media as Creative Canvas McCrae transformed his relationship with social media after his literary agent rejected his memoir. Rather than waiting for traditional gatekeepers, he decided to treat social media like “writing a book in real time, post by post,” with each piece treated “with the same level of artistic integrity that I would treat a book or a poem or a painting.” This shift in perspective turned social media from a source of frustration into “a sandbox for my own creative exploration” and eventually led to the book deal he originally sought. Three Essential Practices for Creative Awakening McCrae leaves readers with two fundamental practices he considers essential for any creative person: Daily Mindfulness Practice: Commit to some form of mindfulness daily, even just five minutes. This could be meditation, nature walks, visiting art museums, or attending concerts, anything that breaks routine and allows access to inspiration. Keep a Dedicated Notebook: Every creative idea, from business concepts to poems, starts in McCrae’s notebook. “All my ideas, even my business ideas, like the classes that I teach, the workshops that I teach, the poems I write, everything I do, it starts in my notebook.” He describes it as “ground zero for your creative process” where there are no bad ideas and you can freely experiment. The Deeper Message: Creativity as Life Force McCrae argues that creativity isn’t just a skill but fundamental to human nature: “Creativity is a life force that we all not only have access to, but that is who we truly are.” He points to human design, from imagination and intuition to hands perfectly constructed to hold paintbrushes and pens, as evidence that we’re engineered for creative expression. The challenge is that society conditions us away from this natural creativity through rigid structures and capitalistic pressure to be productive. However, McCrae insists that reconnecting with our creative nature is “always just one shift in perception away.” Why This Matters Now In an age of increasing automation and artificial intelligence, McCrae’s message about authentic human creativity and vulnerability becomes even more relevant. His journey from corporate termination to viral success demonstrates that our perceived failures can become our greatest breakthroughs when we have the courage to listen to our inner creative voice. McCrae’s story offers hope to anyone feeling trapped in corporate structures or disconnected from their creative nature. Sometimes the most radical thing you can do is simply be yourself, trust your authentic voice, and allow your creativity to emerge naturally.

It's known that an average life exists in the comfort zone. And it is known that when you live in discomfort, your body will do everything it can to avoid this space. The truth is, discomfort is where the growth aoccurs for most human beings. Think about the last tie you lost love. Lost money. Lost friends. Think about your childhood. Was it good, or was it uncomfortable. I've lived many lives of discomfort. At 18, I got my first apartment. Ten months later, the cops kicked open the door and took me to jail. Jail was uncomfortable. I had no furniture in my apartment and really had none when I got locked up. When I was married 3 times before and got divorced, I felt the discomfort. In each and every one of those situations, I used the discomfort of discomfort to make new way. I worked harder. Worked longer than everyone else. And guess what? I won. Last weekend, my 2nd oldest and I mowed 10 acres. Sure, I can afford to hire soemone, but Im teaching my kids about life and how it woks by staying in the discomfort zone. It's the only way growth happens. I still got to the gym and work my body daily. I still do yardwork. I do chores around the house. I work later and longer at work. Why? In my experience, discomfort keeps me sharp and continuously evolving. Figure out what you want. It's waiting for you in the discomfort zone.

In this series, we've been exploring ways to build a strong connection with Jesus. In John 15, He calls it “abiding” in Him. What we've discovered is that the stronger the connection, the better the fruit and the greater the joy. We've talked about the importance of rest and nutrition in producing good fruit in our lives. Today, we are looking at the necessity of breathing, and the way we do that is through prayer.What word comes to mind when you think of prayer? For some, it's joy! Prayer is a delight. But for others, the word might be bewilderment, frustration, disappointment, or more likely… guilt. But I want to propose that prayer is not a responsibility to be pushed into, but a relationship to be pulled into. Put another way, sustainable prayer comes not from gritting our teeth, but by falling in love.Our God is amazingly relational. And He wants us to share life with you! Our souls were made to walk with God and talk with God. And when that happens… when we abide like that…all sorts of good things can happen that lead to bearing fruit and knowing joy.God wants to make every moment of your life glorious with His presence. It's not just that God is for us, but that He wants to be with us. He wants to fill our souls with His presence.Lately, I've been challenging myself with this: How many moments of my life today can I fill with a conscious awareness of God's presence? The life of abiding is not a life of more religious activities. It's a life of inner peace and contentment as you walk with and talk with One who not only loves you but is big enough to see you through whatever you may face.I've also discovered that…the best way to start living life with God is in small moments.Talk to God while watching the sunrise, while taking a walk, or while out fishing. Converse with Him when stuck in traffic, while waiting on hold, or while washing the dishes. Celebrate what He has done for you. Thank Him for that which you so often take for granted.And then, before you know it, you'll find yourself sharing with Him those things that concern you. What are you doing? You're praying! However, I'm doing this not out of guilt. Not out of duty. But simply as an overflow of my relationship with Him. Out of your moments of devotion, you will find it natural to offer petition and make intercession.The more we abide with Jesus, the more our prayers align with His will and the more He delights in answering those prayers.
