The desert fathers were incredibly sensitive to the simple things in life that we often take for granted; the ways that we speak with others and treat them. In this sense, they were psychologically astute; realizing that in the warp and woof of day-to-day life, it is often the small things that affect relationships the most and so also a place where we are provoked to sin. We often describe these aspects of our life as normal or natural; that is, being human. Yet, even that which is good must be perfected by the grace of God for it can be corrupted if the heart is impure or lacking in charity. Thus, without hesitation, the fathers can say “there is no passion, more terrible than familiarity, for it gives rise to all the other passions.“ At first this might seem to be hyperbole. Familiarity seems to be an essential part of relationships and intimacy. What the fathers discovered, however, is that it can break down the reverence, dignity and meekness with which we engage others. The more that we are around a person we begin to think that we can take liberties and dispense with courteousness and tenderness in speech. We can use our intimate knowledge of others to tear them down or to gain a position of emotional power within the relationship. What has been entrusted to us as precious can be used in ways that inflict emotional wounds. Similarly laughter is seen as a natural part and perhaps one of the best parts of our lives. Humor often is the means through which we are able to cope with a harshness of life. It seems to lighten the spirit. However, it can often devolve into buffoonery; nothing is taken serious at all, and humor is used to mock the others. Such laughter then makes us lose sight of the dignity of the other and more importantly makes us lose sight of their dignity as sons and daughters of God. We feel that we are liberty to make fun of them or to laugh at their misfortune. Our consideration of these things shows us how important it is for us to have the mind of Christ. We are to live in Him and it is His grace that must shape all of our actions. There is only one appropriate way for us to relate to another person and that is to love them! --- Text of chat during the group: 00:03:56 Fr. Charbel Abernethy: Page 266 00:06:34 Fr.

Clare minor ladies football vice captain Aisling Kelly claims the familiarity amongst the backline is a major reason behind the team's defensive stability. Clare secured a Munster and All Ireland double with a four point defeat of Sligo, conceding just three points from play during the game. Eimear Burke and Abbie Cahill joined Cooraclare woman Kelly in the full back line, and have played as a unit since they were part of under 12 development panels. She says the backs provided the platform for the forwards to thrive off.

A Daily Purpose Bible Study & Devotional a Podcast by Our Given Purpose
This week on Divine Alignment, ✨ The Heart That Honors: Building with God's Blueprint ✨
When Joachim Eeckhout says he started small, he's not kidding. He and a friend began curating biotech news from a Paris dorm room, eventually launching LaBiotech.eu, a media brand that became a trusted voice in European biotech. What caught my attention is how they learned the landscape: by biking across France with a camera, interviewing CEOs, and turning it into a documentary. That's how they built credibility and a network from scratch. As a fan of cycling, science and documentary filmmaking, that sounds like a dream job to me. Or me 40 years ago…That kind of storytelling, doing something unexpected and human, creates lasting connections. In our attention economy, Joachim's approach stands out. He now runs The Science Marketer, helping life science companies do smarter marketing with a voice and personality.Content doesn't need to be flashy. But it does need to be authentic, consistent, and personal. Joachim suggests starting with what you would actually want to see yourself. That's how you find your edge or your angle. If you aren't subscribed, now might be a good time…We dug into the mechanics of content-led growth: how podcasts and newsletters aren't just media channels—they're trust-building engines. When someone hears your voice regularly or reads your thoughts in their inbox each week, you go from being a company name to a known entity. Familiarity builds comfort, and comfort builds trust. And unlike a sales call, this kind of content scales. It creates what Joachim calls “a simple funnel”. You share your perspective, your expertise, and a bit of your personality, and over time, people move closer to working with you.Funnels have gotten a bad name lately. Nobody wants to feel like a lead. So how do you build one without turning people off? The goal is to show up with something valuable, consistently, and let the content do the work. This is especially important for founders and CEOs. The ones who are willing to show up, not just to talk about the science, but to let people see who they are, how they think, and what kind of culture they're building, stand out. Customers don't just pick a service; they pick a team. The value of good content is letting them get to know yours without pressure.Joachim shares my love of repurposing. Too many companies make a great webinar, record a brilliant interview, or write a strong article and it's one and done. They move on. But that single piece of content can become the seed for a dozen others. Joachim talked about how he helps clients turn webinars into PDFs, transcripts into blog posts, clips into LinkedIn videos, even media pitches that include actual footage of someone making their point, instead of a generic quote in a press release.We both agree that posting content more than once on the same platform is a mental hurdle more than a real one. Most people won't see your post the first time. And if they do, they probably won't remember it. So why not reshare it? Especially if it was good. Posting the same content again weeks or months later isn't lazy. It's efficient and effective. Joachim brought up Plasmidsaurus, a company that markets seriously essential biotech services by being obsessed with dinosaurs. It works because it's memorable, and it doesn't compromise the quality of the science.The whole conversation was a reminder that in biotech, seriousness doesn't have to mean boring. Passion, creativity, and a little risk-taking can go a long way in earning trust and growing your brand.Your deepest insights are your best branding. I'd love to help you share them.

Male sexuality is often misunderstood. In this first in a series of episodes on the topic, I discuss one of the reasons why men lose interest in sex: familiarity. When people live in family-like conditions for many years, they develop a sexual indifference (or aversion) to each other in order to prevent inbreeding. This is known as the Westermarck Effect, and it can help explain why closeness kills attraction.

Come to a Dehoarding Accountability Zoom Session: http://www.overcomecompulsivehoarding.co.uk/ticket Subscribe to the podcast: https://www.overcomecompulsivehoarding.co.uk/subscribe Podcast show notes, links and transcript: http://www.overcomecompulsivehoarding.co.uk/ Transformation and comfort rarely go hand in hand, especially when it comes to overcoming compulsive hoarding. In this episode, I talk honestly about why making real change means facing discomfort, based on a quote from Healing Justice London that “transformation and comfort do not live in the same house”. I challenge us to identify the difference between familiarity and comfort, and share practical ways to push through those tough moments - because growth comes from getting a bit uncomfortable. If you're tired of mistaking chaos for comfort, this one's for you. “Transformation and comfort do not live in the same house” (Healing Justice London) The universal truth behind the idea The necessity of discomfort for real transformation Discomfort Versus Comfort in the Hoarding Context Familiarity as a source of “comfort” for those who hoard Risks of equating familiarity with true comfort The need for change and its inherent discomfort Examples of positive outcomes after embracing discomfort The Reality of Discomfort in Dehoarding Emotional and physical challenges of dehoarding Potential for overwhelming feelings and anxiety Catastrophising and perfectionism surrounding decision-making Emotional toll of letting go and possible identity implications Acknowledgement that discomfort does not mean failure Familiarity Versus Authentic Comfort Distinction between feeling comfortable and something being familiar The false sense of control and security provided by clutter The actual consequences of living in a hoarded home: Physical hazards (tripping, blocked access, risk in emergencies) Social isolation and shame Lack of practical comfort (e.g., not sleeping in one's own bed) The hidden, ongoing “slow burn” of stress and discomfort Motivation and Community Importance of recognising the true discomfort of living with hoarding Community connections via the podcast and accountability Zoom sessions Methods to share resources and reduce isolation Reframing Discomfort as Growth Viewing discomfort as a sign of progress rather than a warning The parallel discomforts of both dehoarding and continuing to hoard Making conscious choices between competing difficulties Strategies for Managing Discomfort Taking small, manageable steps to build resilience Being gentle and compassionate with oneself during the process Reaching out for support (friends, family, therapist, peer groups) The use and benefit of accountability sessions The Broader Benefits of Transformation Improved physical space and wellbeing Increased self-confidence and pride Better relationships and decreased shame Regaining practical functionality and freedom at home Enhanced overall quality of life Practical Suggestions and Further Resources Trying a small, uncomfortable but positive task today References to previous episodes for deeper exploration: Sitting with discomfort and distress tolerance (Episode 49) Building resilience (Episode 70 with Dr. Jan Eppingstall) Links Podcast ep 190: What if we forgive ourselves, but now we know better, we do better?

How many times do you actually attempt to reach out to a prospect before you give up? On the Sales Gravy Podcast, Jessica Stokes calls out a common sales reality when prospecting: “We all know the average salesperson typically stops after three, maybe four attempts before moving on. We assume they're not interested. We want to find a juicier lead.” This common behavior defines The 3-Call Fallacy—the flawed belief that if someone doesn't respond after a few tries, they're not interested. It's where you probably tap out and tell yourself you've done enough. You haven't. Persistence is key. Why Salespeople Quit Prospecting Too Early The premature retreat from prospecting isn't about laziness; it's rooted in fundamental misconceptions and fear. The Fear of Being Annoying The most common excuse? “I don't want to be a pest.” You leave a voicemail, send an email, maybe try LinkedIn, and then you back off. You tell yourself you're giving them space. But your prospect doesn't remember you. When you're looking at your CRM thinking, "This is my sixth attempt—I'm going to tick this guy off," your prospect likely has no idea who you are. To them, today's call feels like the first time you've reached out. The Momentum Killer Spacing out your touchpoints destroys any traction you might have built. Waiting a week—or worse, a month—between messages forces you to restart every time. That familiar name? Forgotten. That compelling message? Gone. Momentum is built with consistency. Familiarity breeds trust, but only if you stay in front of them long enough to become familiar. The 4 Steps of Building a Fanatical Prospecting Sequence The fix? Being fanatical about sequencing. It's about consistent, well-timed, multi-channel outreach that keeps your message fresh and front of mind. Stay Consistent: Don't let more than a few days pass between touchpoints. Regular rhythm creates recall. Think of it like a steady drumbeat—not a one-time boom. Use Multiple Channels: Your prospect may ignore emails but answer LinkedIn. Or they may screen unknown numbers but reply to a personalized video. Use all the tools available: Phone calls Emails LinkedIn messages Video messages Direct mail (for high-value prospects) Track Your True Attempt Rate: Most reps overestimate their persistence. Implement a rigorous tracking system, whether in your CRM or a simple spreadsheet, to log every single touchpoint. Reframe Your Mindset: You're not bothering people—you're offering help. If you believe in your product and know it can solve their problems, persistent outreach is a service, not a nuisance. The Prospecting Challenge Ready to put this into action? Take 20-50 leads and run a sequence over the next 30-45 days. Make contact attempts every few days using multiple channels. Track your progress. You'll likely discover: Responses after 8, 10, even 12 attempts. Prospects saying things like "I'm glad you reached out again" or "I was thinking about calling you back." Booked appointments you never would have gotten with the traditional 3-call approach. 3 Common Personal Objections (And Why They're Wrong) This is where self-sabotage shows up. Let's break down the common excuses: "I don't want to be annoying." Your prospect deleted your voicemail in 10 seconds. They're not sitting there with a map of all your attempts, getting angrier with each one. "If they were interested, they would have called back." People are busy. Interest doesn't always translate to immediate action. "I need to focus on warmer leads." Every lead starts cold. The difference between a cold lead and a warm lead is often just consistent, value-driven follow-up. You make them warm. The Discipline Factor: Every Attempt Counts Just like you can't run a 10K after one day of training, you can't expect immediate results from prospecting. It's a cumulative effort that builds momentum over time.

Episode 367: Pharmacology 101: PARP Inhibitors “We know that in cells that are proliferating very quickly, including cancer cells, single-strand DNA breaks are very common. When that happens, these breaks are often repaired by the PARP enzyme, and the cells can continue their replication process. If we block PARP, that repair cannot happen. So in blocking that, these single-strand breaks then lead to double-strand breaks, which ultimately is leading to cell apoptosis,” Danielle Roman, PharmD, BCOP, manager of clinical pharmacy services at the Allegheny Health Network Cancer Institute in Pittsburgh, PA, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS, during a conversation about the PARP inhibitor drug class.

It is one of those targeted therapies that does affect blood cell counts. So I'd say the blood cell count that is most commonly affected here is the hemoglobin. So, anemia very frequent complication that we see, probably a little bit more with olaparib compared with other drugs, but we see it as a class side effect. And we can also see neutropenia and thrombocytopenia with these agents, probably a little bit more with niraparib versus the others, but again, you can see it across all of these drugs.” TS 8:16 “We mentioned that rare risk of MDS and AML. This isn't a particularly scary thing if you talk to patients about it. Because of the rarity that we see this, it isn't something that we need to overemphasize, but I think careful monitoring of blood counts in is stressing the importance of that and early intervention here is very important.” TS 16:55 “This is a collaborative effort. And because of the home administration here, these patients do need to be followed very closely. So we are not laying eyes on them usually with the frequency that we do when we have patients actually coming into our infusion centers for treatments—so making sure that there is a plan for regular follow-up with these patients to ensure that they're getting that lab work done, that that's being looked at closely, that we're adjusting the dose if we need to based on that lab work, that we are managing the patient's fatigue. Again, that potentially dose reductions may be needed if patients are having that extreme fatigue.” TS 19:34 “I think one of those [misconceptions] could be that they're only effective in patients that have that BRCA1/2 mutation. And again, remember here that there is some data in particular disease states that we can use them and that they work in the absence of those mutations.” TS 25:12

There's something magical about stepping into the unknown, suitcase in hand and curiosity leading the way. But ask yourself this the next time you pack your bags: Are you a traveler… or a vacationer?Traveling and vacationing aren't the same, so which one is you?It's not about right or wrong. It's about why you go and how you go.The Vacationer: Comfort, Convenience and Checked BoxesVacationers crave rest—and who can blame them? They've earned that all-inclusive escape. Their plans are polished: the resort booked, excursions mapped out, every detail wrapped in a tidy bow. They're here to relax, recharge, and maybe grab a few Instagram-worthy shots while following the path most traveled. Or maybe the vacation is a mission to do as much as possible according to plan.Either way, there's a certain ease in that kind of trip. Predictability. Familiarity. But there's also something… missing. That spark of discovery. That thrill of being surprised by a place. That connection to culture and community that doesn't always fit inside a brochure.The Traveler: Curious, Open and Eager to DiscoverTravelers take the road less photographed. They don't just want to see a place—they want to feel it. They linger in local cafés, talk to strangers, or take a wrong turn down an alleyway in an old European town just to see what's there. They don't mind the imperfect hotel room or the language barrier. In fact, they welcome it. Traveler's are often lost by design, because it means they're doing it right.To the traveler, every destination is a chance to grow. Every moment is part of a bigger story. And sometimes, the best adventures begin when the plan goes out the window.So… Which Are You?Take the quiz and find out.Do you stick to the itinerary—or stray from the script?Do you leave with a suntan—or a story?Do you chase rest—or revelation?The following 10 questions will tell your travel story.The 1923 Main Street Traveler or Vacationer QuizAnswer YES or NO to the following 10 questions. Keep track of your yes answers.Do you prefer planning the bare minimum so you can explore freely?Have you ever skipped a famous tourist site in favor of a local recommendation?Do you enjoy getting a little lost in a new city or wandering without a set agenda?Would you rather eat at a hidden neighborhood café than a popular chain?Do you love learning local customs or picking up a few words of the language?Have you ever changed your plans mid-trip just because something interesting came up?Do you travel to connect with people and culture—not just to unwind?Would you trade a five-star resort for a locally run guesthouse with character?Are you okay with a bit of discomfort if it means having a more authentic experience?Do you feel most alive when you're somewhere unfamiliar?Your Results:0–3 YES Answers: You're more of a Vacationer—and there's nothing wrong with that! You travel to relax, recharge, and take in the sights with comfort and ease. Just don't forget to occasionally stray from the itinerary… magic often lives outside the guidebook.4–7 YES Answers: You're a Hybrid Explorer. You like a balance: a comfy bed and a structured plan, but with room for curiosity. You're open to adventure, especially when it fits into the day's schedule. A little more freedom and spontaneity could turn your trip into a deeper story.8–10 YES Answers: You're a True Traveler. You live for the moments that can't be booked in advance. You seek connection over convenience and discovery over direction. Every journey is a chance to learn, grow, and get beautifully lost. You're one of us.So, What Does It All Mean?If you find yourself craving the soul of a destination, not just its surface… if you believe the real journey begins once you've left the crowds behind… then you're not just on vacation.You're a traveler, and you're part of the 1923 Main Street story.

Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Today's shout-out goes to Marvin Steele from Garland, TX. Thank you for partnering with us through Project23. Your support helps people have faith in Jesus. This one's for you. Our text today is Mark 6:1-6: He went away from there and came to his hometown, and his disciples followed him. And on the Sabbath he began to teach in the synagogue, and many who heard him were astonished, saying, “Where did this man get these things? What is the wisdom given to him? How are such mighty works done by his hands? Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary and brother of James and Joses and Judas and Simon? And are not his sisters here with us?” And they took offense at him. And Jesus said to them, “A prophet is not without honor, except in his hometown and among his relatives and in his own household.” And he could do no mighty work there, except that he laid his hands on a few sick people and healed them. And he marveled because of their unbelief. And he went about among the villages teaching. — Mark 6:1-6 Jesus returns to his hometown, Nazareth. This is where Jesus grew up, where he learned the trade of a carpenter, and where people watched him grow from a baby to a boy into a man. And now he's back. But not as a carpenter. But as a Lord. He's teaching with wisdom. He's performing mighty works. He's stepping fully into His divine calling. And what's the response? Listen to the skepticism: “Isn't this Mary's son? The carpenter? The kid we used to know?” They're amazed—but not expectantly and excitedly. They simply can't reconcile who Jesus is with who they remember he was. Familiarity breeds unbelief. They couldn't see the Messiah standing before them—because how they remembered him and formerly knew him for so many years. And because of that, Mark proclaims something staggering: “He could do no mighty work there… and he marveled because of their unbelief.” Let that sink in: Unbelief shut the door on what Jesus wanted to do. Not because he lacked power—but because the people lacked faith. Jesus doesn't force his way upon us, and he doesn't perform signs to show off to his skeptics. He responds to faith, not familiarity. And the warning of this scripture is simple. You can grow up around Jesus. You can hear his teaching every Sunday. You can know the stories, quote the verses, sing the songs—and still not have faith in him. Familiarity is not faith. Proximity is not surrender. Faith is seeing Jesus for who he truly is—and responding with awe, trust, and obedience. So today, the question isn't: “Are you familiar with Jesus?” The question is: “Do you have faith in Jesus?” #FaithOverFamiliarity, #PowerOfUnbelief, #JesusInNazareth ASK THIS: Are you truly seeing Jesus for who he is, or just as someone you've always known? How can familiarity with Jesus sometimes hinder your faith in Him? In what areas of your life do you need to move from knowledge of Jesus to faith in Him? What does it mean for you to respond with awe, trust, and obedience to Jesus? DO THIS: Take a moment to reflect on the areas of your life where familiarity with Jesus has replaced faith and trust. Ask God to reveal new aspects of His character to you today. PRAY THIS: Jesus, I don't want to merely know about You, I want to truly know You and trust You. Help me see You clearly and respond with faith, awe, and obedience today. Amen. PLAY THIS: King of Kings.
Sermon By: Kirk Packer
John 4:43-44 After the two days, He went forth from there into Galilee. For Jesus Himself testified that a prophet has no honor in his own country. These verses are meant to show us the contrast between how Jesus was received in Samaria and how He was received in Galilee. He was received in Sychar, a city of Gentiles, as a prophet. Remember what the woman said after Jesus revealed that He knew she had five husbands and was living with a guy? “Sir, I perceive that You are a Prophet.” Jesus performed no miracles in Sychar that we know of, and the people wanted Him to stay. He was honored, and in an honor/shame culture, that's a big deal. They believed Him to be the Savior of the world because of His words. Jesus experienced for a brief time, only two days, the joys of sowing and reaping with His Father. What a blessed and rewarding two days! In contrast, Jesus not only was not honored in Galilee, His own country, but was shamed and cast out. He had lived a perfect life in Galilee for more than 20 years of His life. The manner in which He lived His life, His attitudes, His conduct, His words must have stood out to those who knew Him, but they couldn't see His glory. When He healed a man with a withered hand, preached the good news in the synagogue, and prophesied, they cast Him out of the city and attempted to kill Him by throwing Him off a cliff. In the next verse we will see how He was received, but for today, let's learn a couple of important lessons in walking with Jesus. First, there are good times and difficult times in ministry. We must not determine to whom and where we minister on the basis of hoped for results. We are to be faithful wherever He leads us and receive what He gives us with contentment and gratitude. If God gives us a season of sowing and reaping, we are to receive it with great joy, but be ready to move on in obedience to the leading of the Spirit of God. Second, we must not pre-judge people or assume we know how we are going to be received. We learn from this account, that the ones we think might be most receptive to our love will not be, and the ones we think might be the most resistant may not be. Familiarity may breed contempt, or at least blind people from recognizing that they have one sent from God in their midst. It is not always the case, but it still may happen. One may find a much warmer reception in a foreign field than he finds at home in his own family or church. That's how it was with Jesus, so we should not be surprised. We are to trust the reception of our love and ministry to God and His will. Our responsibility is to be faithful and to trust God for the results. So let this verse encourage us to live to love with Jesus in both good and bad times, content with whatever results or fruit the Lord wills. Let's simply be faithful, enjoy the blessings of loving with Him, and be thankful for the privilege and honor it is to work in God's field with Him. I invite you to become a partner in our ministry. Would you pray about becoming a regular supporter of Elijah Ministries and the Live to Love with Jesus ministry? I hope you will receive the joy and benefit of “giving it forward,” so others may receive encouragement to turn their hearts to God and to live to love with Jesus.

Don and Tom dive into a new study showing the average investor spends just six minutes researching a stock—most of it just watching the price move. From gut feelings to hometown bias, they unpack why individual stock picking is often driven by emotion, not logic. Along the way, they skewer myths about control, tax efficiency, and the Warren Buffett fantasy.

What's the architecture of a DMT experience, who are the entities that regularly interact and what's their message? How can DMT therapy facilitate positive mental health outcomes?In this episode we're going to learn about the bizarre types of experience that users of DMT have; DMT being the most powerful hallucinogenic molecule on the planet. So we'll be getting into the background of psychedelics for mental health; and the particularities of DMT, the active ingredient in Ahyuasca and the psychedelic that most often presents entities that interact meaningfully with the experiencer; we're going to discuss the different types of entities: from mythological creatures, to Gods and Demons, to machine elves and aliens, and the significance of these same characters appearing significantly often without an obvious primer; we'll also discuss the importance of mystical experience and teacher /guide experiences to positive mental health outcomes.Fortunately our guest was the head researcher on a 2022 paper that looked at exactly this topic, the medical doctor and sports scientist professor at the University of Toronto, Dr. David Wyndham Lawrence. He's published over 35 scientific papers across sports science and psychedelics for medical use.What we discussed:00:00 Intro05:20 Concussion, sports mental health & psychedelic therapy.08:10 Bringing in Robin Carhartt-Harris on the gaps in sports mental health treatment.12:06 Why psychedelics for those already in psychological difficulty?14:04 Serotonin receptor - neuro-protective mitochondria function.15:00 DMT is endogenous to the brain. 18:20 Medical institution meets shamanism.23:50 David's DMT phenomenology paper.30:10 The architecture of the DMT world.32:60 Mostly positive, interactive entity encounters.37:05 Occasionally negative encounters.38:40 Negative psychedelic experiences study - Jules Evans.40:05 How much “Primers” from pop culture influence experiences.44:00 Alien encounters in %16 of participants.45:30 Medical procedures by entities in 9% of participants.47:05 Mystical experiences in %70 of participants.49:00 Familiarity/ sense of home in the experiences.52:20 Default Mode Network is less active during altered states.48:35 Ego dissolution Vs mystical experience.01:00:00 5meoDMT Vs DMT.01:03:20 Wise teacher experience in 32% of participants.01:05:20 Death bed palliative doses to alleviate fear of death.01:09:50 ‘You're not ready for this experience' message.01:11:05 Theories of DMT experiences evaluated.01:12:20 ”All models are false but some are useful”, anonymous statistician.References: David Lawrence, “Phenomenology and content of inhaled DMT” David Wyndham Lawrence and Robin Carhart-Harris, “Sports Medicine, Mental Health & Well-Being, and Psychedelics” Benny Shanon, “Antipodies of the Mind”Matthew W. Johnson - Johns HopkinsAndrew Gallimore - “Death by Astonishment”Jules Evans et al, “Extended difficulties following the use of psychedelic drugs”Similarities between DMT and Alien encounters paperDavid W.

Why do you keep attracting the same type of person who drains your energy or leaves you feeling unseen? Ever wondered why confidence seems so effortless for some and impossible for others? What if the secret to deep connection and magnetic attraction had nothing to do with looks or pickup lines—and everything to do with how you feel in your body?In this powerful session, Dr. David Snyder dives into the real reasons most people fail at dating, flirting, and even long-term relationships. Spoiler: it's not about the words you say. It's about mastering your inner state, aligning your physiology, and radiating emotions that others can't help but respond to.You'll learn:· Why familiarity, not chemistry, drives attraction· How to reprogram your subconscious "romantic templates"· How posture and breath control your confidence (and your results)· Why your checklist is sabotaging your connections· The ethical psychology behind making others feel amazing in your presenceIf you've been burned, rejected, or just frustrated by modern dating—this will flip your script. Whether you're single, dating, or in a relationship, Dr. Snyder reveals how to flirt for fun and profit by being playfully powerful.Quotes:• "Your physiology controls your psychology. If you want to change your emotional state, start with the body, because the body is the most bulletproof way to get and maintain a state."• "The more playful you can be, the more powerful you become because when you're playful, when you're relaxed and easy going, when you're just looking for the fun, it neutralizes and slips under people's defense mechanisms.""Each of you is moving through the world with a little checklist, and you're projecting that out into the world, and you're making the assumption that everyone you meet has the exact same checklist."Key Takeaways:· Your Physiology Controls Your Psychology– How you stand, breathe, and move determines how you feel. If you want to feel confident, start by changing your posture and breathing.– Emotions are contagious—if you feel good, others will mirror that.· Attraction is Built on Familiarity, Not Logic– We are drawn to what's familiar, not necessarily what's healthy or attractive. These patterns often come from childhood experiences.– If you keep attracting the “wrong” people, it's time to reprogram your internal templates.· Playfulness = Power– Approaching others in a relaxed, curious, and playful state increases your likeability, influence, and success rate—by as much as 31%, according to FBI negotiator Chris Voss.– Most people are too serious or nervous, which kills attraction.· Women and Men Have Different Social Programming– Many women are taught to hide their attraction, leading to mixed signals.– Men often miss subtle cues, leading to awkward or unwanted interactions. Both need to relearn better communication.· Echo Technique Creates Instant Rapport– Mirroring someone's exact words (verbatim) makes them feel heard and validated. It creates deep subconscious trust and connection quickly.Episode Timeline:0:00:02- Introduction and opening announcer segment 0:00:24- Speaker begins discussing self-discovery, attraction, and personal growth 0:01:04- Exploration of relationship patterns, familiarity principle, and attraction psychology 0:11:44- Discussion of the reticular activating system and how emotional states influence perception 0:24:06- Interactive exercise demonstrating how physiology controls psychology 0:29:14- Q&A segment begins with Zoom participants 0:38:52- Discussion of dating psychology, approach anxiety, and social dynamics 0:49:15- Exploration of frame control and treating interactions like a game 0:58:06- Closing segment and announcer's outro To learn more about Dr. David Snyder and everything about NLP, visit:Website: https://www.nlppower.com/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@DavidSnyderNLPInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/davidsnydernlp

"We all have our own thing, and we all have to make that decision every day about what's in it for us, is it worth it, and is it worth my time." Notable Moments 00:36 When to Say Yes or No 03:22 Invitations Increase with Familiarity 08:02 Facing Life's Tough Challenges 12:14 Managing Life's Responsibilities 14:17 Get Organized for Success Sometimes, the most powerful tool you have is a simple “no.” During my years at Disney, I learned that it's okay to not say yes to every opportunity. The more important thing is knowing which doors to walk through and which ones to keep closed. Success isn't about overloading your calendar. It's about making conscious choices so your time and energy add up to something worthwhile. I've seen leaders rise by grabbing big opportunities. Djuan Rivers seemed to say yes to challenging new roles again and again. He didn't accept every little invitation though. He chose the moves that advanced his career and expanded his world. On the flip side, I said no to a lot of late-night banquets and endless committees so I could be ready for what really mattered the next day. It comes down to this: “Is it worth it?” That's the question I challenge myself with all the time. The best use of your time is investing in things that help you grow, personally and professionally. Say yes to the adventure, the project, or the role that stretches you, but don't be afraid to save your time for when it counts. And here's another secret: A big part of making your life easier is tackling the hard things head-on. Write down the tough conversations you're avoiding, make a plan, and just get it done. Don't let the easy distractions pile up and rob you of bigger opportunities. Master the art of yes and no—your energy, focus, and future will thank you.

Have you ever wondered why anxiety in children can look and feel so physical—and what we as pediatricians, parents, or caregivers can do about it? We're visiting a fan favorite from Episode #26 of Pediatric Meltdown, Dr. Lia Gaggino sits down with Dr. Colleen Cullinan, a leading pediatric psychologist, to dissect the powerful 3 B's approach: Brain, Body, and Behavior. Together, they reveal eye-opening truths about integrated behavioral health, the ways anxiety manifests in kids, and practical, actionable strategies for managing emotional meltdowns in real-time. This is not just about recognizing anxiety—it's about transforming how we support kids inside and outside the exam room. If you want to empower families, level up your clinical skills, and make a tangible difference, don't miss this conversation. This episode could change the way you think about pediatric care—forever.[00:00 - 11:35] Integrated Care Foundations: Building Partnerships in Pediatric PracticeIntegrated behavioral health bridges the gap between physical and mental health, creating seamless care experiences for families.Primary care is often the first—and sometimes only—entry point for children facing emotional or behavioral challenges.Partnerships between pediatricians and behavioral health providers increase accessibility, reduce stigma, and foster earlier intervention.The synergy and trust between pediatricians and psychology professionals leads to holistic, effective patient care.[11:36 - 15:49] The Role of Primary Care in Managing Anxiety and Emotional HealthPrimary care providers serve as trusted anchors, introducing mental health as an essential component of overall health.Familiarity with a child's history allows pediatricians to recognize subtle behavior changes and collaborate meaningfully with behavioral specialists.Normalizing physical symptoms of anxiety (like stomachaches and headaches) helps bridge conversations from medical to emotional concerns.Educating families on the inseparability of physical and emotional health empowers them to seek support without shame.[15:50 - 28:55] Anxiety Explained: The 3 B's and Practical Strategies for KidsThe "3 B's": Brain, Body, and Behavior, are interlinked—anxiety in the brain triggers body sensations, which guide behavior, often leading to avoidance.Psychoeducation is key: Emphasizing to families and youth that everyone experiences anxiety validates their feelings and reduces shame.Simple, actionable distress tolerance tools—breathing exercises, grounding techniques (like the “five senses” method), and focusing attention—can be taught in minutes during a regular visit.Providers can help children recognize “worry thoughts” and redirect their response before anxiety spirals into withdrawal or meltdown.[28:56 - 49:20] When to Escalate: Distress Tolerance, Prevention, and Team-Based SolutionsDistress tolerance techniques can bridge the gap until a child can access specialized behavioral care—or be sufficient for milder cases.Functional impairment is the marker for when anxiety moves from “manageable” to requiring traditional CBT or higher-level intervention.Exposure therapy explained: At its core, CBT for anxiety involves identifying fears and encouraging gradual, manageable exposure to them, with improvement through repetition.Advocacy for integrated behavioral health, resource sharing, and ongoing partnerships with community therapists are essential for sustainable, high-impact child mental health care.[49:21- 53:34] Dr. Lia's...
Late last night, the news finally came in: the Liberal Party of Canada pulled off the upset and held onto parliamentary power. It wasn't pretty. It wasn't dominant. But they survived — and a few months ago, that seemed almost impossible. They had everything working against them: more than a decade in power, a deeply unpopular former prime minister they had to jettison, and an electorate that looked ready for change. Yet when the votes were counted, the Liberals were still standing.And you can't tell this story without talking about Donald Trump. Trump has been a thorn in Canada's side since his first term — publicly antagonizing Justin Trudeau, calling Canada the "51st state," and slapping brutal tariffs on Canadian goods. That lingering resentment became part of the political terrain in Canada. The Liberal candidate, Mark Carney, didn't just have to run against Peter Poilievre and the Conservative Party — he got to run against the memory of Trump, and against the uncertainty that conservatives couldn't fully distance themselves from.Poilievre never figured out how to adapt. He spent too much time running a traditional opposition campaign and not enough time answering the deeper question a lot of Canadian voters were asking: would a Conservative government just invite more chaos with Trump? Carney seized on that. He didn't have to make it the centerpiece of his campaign, but it was always there in the background. Steady hand versus risk. Familiarity versus volatility.And while some Conservatives are already spinning this as a "moral victory" because of how tight the race was, that's not how elections work. A win is a win. In a parliamentary system, survival is everything. The Liberals get to control the agenda, pick the cabinet, and frame the narrative going into the next few years. That's not moral victory — that's real, tangible power. And for a party that looked like it was about to lose everything, it's a remarkable political save.Now, the Liberals may still need a coalition with the NDP to govern effectively. It's razor-thin. But that's a separate conversation. The scoreboard is the scoreboard. And right now, the score says the Liberals survived. Trump's shadow loomed large over this race — and in the end, it helped save the very people he's spent years antagonizing.Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:01:28 - WHCA Substack Party00:11:27 - Interview with Kevin Ryan00:28:46 - Update00:29:08 - Canadian Election Results00:31:38 - Big Beautiful Bill's July 4th Deadline00:35:46 - Interview with Kevin Ryan, con't00:57:28 - Wrap-up This is a public episode.
