Daniel Santos @DanielSantosAnalysis joins us to discuss 'death of the author', which is a method of engaging with art that does NOT involve any consideration for what the author intended for the work to mean. Though we started out there, we slowly moved into topics like AI, God, Objectivity and whether or not people really are seeing Jesus in their coffee, toast or potato chips. All 3 of us are still trying to feel our way through to finding the best ways to analyze works of art and had a fun time exploring the possibilities that a method like this can bring to the table. However, we'll still be doing our Dev History episodes on future podcasts about dope games. Please consider supporting us on Patreon if you have the means. Thanks for watching!

  What happens when you lose your voice — not just for a day, but for months? In this deeply personal solo episode, I share my one year update on a journey through muscular tension dysphonia, a condition that silenced me (yes, completely!) and forced me to face stress, identity, and balance in a whole new way.

If you've ever felt like you're carrying too much — stress in your body, fear in your mind, or the weight of “what if I never get better?” — this episode is for you.

In this episode, I'm joined by Vanessa Lyons, CEO of ThinkNewsBrands, to talk about how she navigated her way from a career in Marketing to becoming a CEO.Starting her career as a Product Marketer at Phillips was, in hindsight, pivotal, not only because of the highly commercial nature of the role but also because of the broader global roles she was able to take on. What did she learn from roles based in China and New Zealand, and what lessons did she take from an early mistake?How did working in large corporates and a redundancy help to refine what came next? Why the intentional move to work for smaller businesses, and how did she make the shift to take on broader business management roles outside of the traditional Marketing remit?What has she learned from this, and what advice does she have for other Marketers who want to do a similar thing?Vanessa and I also talked about our experiences with cancer and what we've both learnt from it, which is a far more entertaining and uplifting conversation than it sounds! How has it changed Vanessa's approach to work/life balance and what it meant for finding meaning and purpose in her work?Vanessa is a real powerhouse, and it's clear throughout our conversation how intentional she has been with her decision making and her career journey. There are lots of insights and great career advice in this one! 00:00 Introduction and Career Beginnings00:27 Early Career at Philips02:27 International Experience in China03:55 Marketing Leadership in New Zealand07:05 Transition to Telstra and Redundancy08:41 Diverse Industry Experience12:21 Challenges and Growth in Smaller Businesses14:52 Reflections on Career and Success23:03 The Hidden Efforts of Leadership24:02 Managing Stress and Risk in High-Stakes Roles25:28 The Importance of Creating Time to Think26:23 Gaining Perspective Through Personal Challenges27:48 A Personal Battle with Cancer33:08 Finding Meaning and Purpose in Work40:10 Defining Personal Success41:37 Final Reflections and AdviceIf you'd like to connect with Vanessa:https://www.linkedin.com/in/vanessalyons1/Hi, I'm Emma.

Send us a textMeaninglessness haunts our hyper-connected yet spiritually adrift world. Why does Solomon, history's wisest and wealthiest king, begin Ecclesiastes with the jarring declaration that everything is "meaningless"? Our exploration of this ancient wisdom reveals a startlingly modern diagnosis of our existential emptiness.We discover that meaning requires direction – like ladder rungs connected to sides rather than clanging uselessly in the air. Solomon's exhaustive experiment with fulfillment (detailed in chapter 2) reads like a billionaire's bucket list gone wrong: pleasure, laughter, substance experimentation, building projects, material excess, entertainment, sexual indulgence, and even achievement. Each pathway led to the same conclusion: vapor, emptiness, nothing substantial to grasp.What makes Ecclesiastes uniquely powerful is its unflinching honesty about reality. Good people die young. Wicked people prosper. Chance happens to everyone. These observations resonate deeply with those who've found themselves "at the bottom of the glass" wondering what it all means. Solomon doesn't offer platitudes; he acknowledges the world's brokenness while pointing toward what's been lost.Support the show

You, me, all of us are all connected. That's not a abstract theory. It's a fact proved by physics. And since there is no difference between the physical world and the spiritual world, according to Finding Meaning, all things are connected.

In this episode, I explore the idea of ‘Enjoying the Simulation'—a mindset shift that helps us gain perspective on the chaotic, unpredictable world we live in.

In this episode, we look at the core understanding of what Finding Meaning is about.

Send us a textI spent a decade convinced I had a "broken brain," relying on the highest dose of Adderall just to get by. But what if the biggest struggle of your life becomes your greatest strength? In this special episode, originally recorded during my conversation with Adam Metwally on his podcast 'That One Time,' I'm sharing that very personal story. I recount the 10 years on medication (from age 8 to 18), the anxiety, the feeling of being disconnected, and the pivotal moment I discovered neuroplasticity – the key that unlocked incredible academic success and helped me get off meds for good.Together with Adam, I break down the 4 Pillars that were foundational to my transformation: Sleep, Nutrition, Movement, and Mind. You'll hear the specific, actionable strategies I personally used – like optimizing light exposure for circadian rhythm, managing core body temperature for deep sleep, fueling my brain with targeted nutrition (and avoiding common pitfalls like processed foods and potential heavy metals), harnessing progressive overload training for mental resilience, and implementing powerful time and attention management techniques that allowed me to thrive without medication.Ultimately, I learned to reframe that challenging decade not as a curse, but as the "best thing that ever happened" because it led me to dedicate my life to this work. This conversation goes beyond just my story; it's about turning struggle into strength and reclaiming your power through understanding your own biology. If you're looking to enhance focus naturally, navigate the complexities of ADHD or stimulant medication, or optimize your cognitive performance by mastering the fundamentals, I encourage you to listen to this deep dive recorded on 'That One Time with Adam Metwally'.

The podcast is called Finding Meaning. What does it mean then to find meaning?

This episode of Finding Meaning is about how we are lost in self doubt, self-loathing, and a selfish world. It is also about how we find our way home, within ourselves by practicing love and generosity and kindness.

In this episode of the Creative Genius podcast, I interview Rebe Huntman about her debut memoir, "My Mother in Havana, a memoir of magic and miracle." Rebe shares her personal story of losing her mother at a young age and the subsequent decades of feeling disconnected from her memory. Driven by a deep longing and intuition, Rebe embarked on a 30-day DIY pilgrimage to Cuba to seek a different perspective on grief and connection. The conversation delves into how Rebe's background as a Latin dancer led her to discover the spiritual roots of Cuban dances and the traditions of honoring the deceased.  Rebe recounts her experiences immersing herself in rituals dedicated to the goddess Oshun, visiting the sanctuary of Cuba's patron saint, and meeting with a spiritist who she hoped would connect her with her mother.Rebe and I discuss the importance of intuition and following one's unique path, even when it doesn't seem logical. We also explore the disconnect in Western culture from ancestral connections, magic, and meaningful rituals, contrasting it with the Cuban traditions of keeping the dead close.The conversation touches on the challenges of staying creative and connected to one's inner voice in the face of overwhelming global issues and personal fears. Rebe shares her belief in creativity as a portal and emphasizes the importance of honouring inner longings and choosing to champion humanity.

In this interview, I'm joined by Derek Sivers. Derek is the Founder of CD Baby — a company he sold for $22 million, and then gave pretty much everything to charity. He has written multiple bestselling books, given TED talks which have reached millions, and been a circus performer for 10 years. There have been few people who have had a bigger positive impact on my thinking than Derek, so it was a real treat to sit down with him for an hour and have this conversation. Expect to learn: — The connection between your beliefs, your emotions, and your actions — How Derek sold his company for $22 million and then instantly gave it all away to charity — His unconventional approach to getting advice from mentors — Why Derek has journalled every day for the past 13 years and why this is the “single most useful thing” he does. And more. You can learn more about Derek's work, books, and philosophy at https://sive.rs. --- Derek Sivers graduated in 1990 from Berklee, where he majored in professional music. He entered as a guitarist and came out a self-proclaimed “everything guy” after studying voice, composition, piano, songwriting, music synthesis, and production. Sivers is best known as the founder of CD Baby(Opens in a new window), the largest online distribution company for independent music. After years of touring, recording, and writing for TV projects, he started CD Baby from his bedroom—almost by accident. When he obtained a merchant account to sell his CDs online (not an easy task in the '90s), musician friends began asking if he could sell their CDs. Soon he was getting calls from strangers, and the foundation for a business was laid. Sivers launched CD Baby in 1998 with a musician-centric ideology that sought to maximize musicians' profits rather than minimize them for company gain. In 2003, Sivers won the World Technology Award and was described by Esquire Magazine as “one of the last music-business folk heroes.” In keeping with his philanthropic ethos, Sivers sold CD Baby in 2008 and gave the proceeds to a charitable trust for music education. In 2011, Sivers published Anything You Want(Opens in a new window), a book chronicling his challenges and triumphs founding, building, and selling CD Baby. In 2013, Sivers launched Wood Egg(Opens in a new window), which publishes guides about how to build companies in Asia. He is a frequent speaker at the TED Conference, with over 5 million views of his talks. --- Interview Links: — Derek's website - https://sive.rs Interview Links: — Derek's website - https://sive.rs — Derek's new book - https://sive.rs/u — Derek's new book (Amazon Link) - https://amzn.to/41HkBPz

In this week's Torah portion, Tetzaveh, we embark on a journey of absence that paradoxically illuminates presence, a mystical dance where what is not seen or heard whispers louder than the clamor of what is. Welcome to "Echoes of the Unseen," an episode that delves into the human penchant for fixating on the missing pieces, rather than the mosaic of abundance that surrounds us.Imagine, if you will, a family in mourning, enveloped by a community's embrace, yet fixated on the one who failed to show. Or a newly engaged couple, showered with well-wishes, yet stewing over a single absent congratulation. It's a peculiar focus, isn't it? Our hearts, like mischievous sprites, skipping over a hundred hellos to sulk over one silent goodbye.This brings us to the heart of our Torah reading. In a curious twist of fate, or perhaps divine choreography, Moses, our indefatigable leader, finds his name conspicuously absent from this week's parsha, Tetzaveh. A parsha that ironically, speaks of him more than any other, precisely because he is not mentioned. It's as if by omitting his name, the Torah invites us into a deeper engagement, prompting us to ponder, "Where is Moses?"The Rebbe, drawing on the insight of the Baal HaTurim, connects this to Moses' selfless plea to be erased from the divine narrative should his people not be forgiven. Thus, in a paradoxical act of presence through absence, Moses' name is etched deeper into the fabric of our collective memory.And so, as we approach Purim, we encounter another divine irony in the Scroll of Esther. Here, G-d's name is nowhere to be found, yet, like the story of Tetzaveh, G-d's presence is palpable in every line, every turn of fate. This hiddenness serves as a mirror to our lives, where divine orchestration often masquerades as coincidence, inviting us to seek the hidden hand that guides us.Through the lens of David and Jonathan's story, we are reminded of the potency of what is not said, what is not seen. David, the absent guest at Saul's table, becomes the focal point, his empty seat a silent testament to the turmoil and loyalty that defines his and Jonathan's bond."Echoes of the Unseen" invites us to consider how absence shapes our perception, how the unseen and unsaid can sometimes speak the loudest. In the missing names and silent spaces, we find a call to presence, an invitation to see beyond the visible, to listen for the whispers of what is not spoken, and in doing so, perhaps understand the divine and human narratives more profoundly.So, as we navigate the landscapes of loss and love, let us embrace the peculiar focus, for in the spaces between, in the silence and the absence, lies the potential for deeper connection, understanding, and spiritual awakening.Support the showGot your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

In this episode of Leadership with Heart, I sit down with Eric Newman, Founder and CEO of Roc Solid Foundation, to talk about the defining moments that shaped his leadership journey.

What do I believe? Where am I going? It can transform the way we navigate challenges. We dive deep into resilience, self-leadership, and the power of presence—how slowing down and embracing the uncomfortable can lead to extraordinary impact. Eric also opens up about his setbacks, including a curbside moment that forced him to reevaluate everything he thought he knew about leadership. If you've ever felt stuck in the messy middle, wondering if your work truly matters, this episode is for you. How do we balance business success with meaningful impact? And what does it take to turn personal adversity into a force for good? Join us for a conversation that might change your thoughts about leadership, purpose, and the legacy you're building.

In this episode of Patriarchy Principles, host Jay Young engages with Deborah Heiser, an expert in developmental psychology, to explore the themes of aging, mentorship, and generativity. They discuss how aging can be a time of growth and opportunity, the importance of mentorship in passing down knowledge and values, and the emotional trajectory that often improves with age. Deborah shares her journey into the field, the significance of generativity in midlife, and how mentorship can bridge generational gaps. The conversation emphasizes the need for intentional connections that uplift future generations and the emotional aspects of aging that often go unrecognized. Takeaways Aging can be a time of growth and opportunity. Mentorship is critical for personal and community development. Generativity is an emotional milestone that occurs in midlife. People often become happier as they age. The emotional trajectory improves with age, despite physical decline. Mentorship allows for the passing down of values and knowledge. Intentional connections can uplift and empower future generations. Aging is not just about physical decline but emotional growth. Identity plays a significant role in how we perceive ourselves as we age. Cultural and familial values are crucial in bridging generational gaps.
