Sophie studied commerce at McGill University and holds a Bachelor's degree in Communications from the University of Montreal, as well as a certificate from the Promedia School of Television and Radio. Deeply passionate about exploring the great outdoors, she loves sports, movement, and yoga. She's the former First Lady of Canada, and she's also certified to teach yoga for children and adults, practicing and guiding meditation and yoga nidra sessions to reset the nervous system and find calm. Her first book, Closer Together (Penguin Random House and KO Éditions), encourages us to better understand the mechanisms of our own personality and the quality of all our relationships — most importantly, the relationship we have with ourselves.

Hello Hello barátaink!A Spagetti Jackpotnélküli epizódsorozatának - a Pótspagettinek- az eheti vendége nem más, mint a First Lady, a notórius félremondó, a magas tetovált introvertált művész, a maximalista minigyűjtő: a Körtelé!Lesz szó a gyerekkori animékről amiket imádott, a minigyűjteményről ami a szekrényből figyelt minket a felvétel alatt, a magyarországi művészetről, és bemutatjuk nektek a legfantasztikusabb állatot, a Pipi nénit.Természetesen nagyon személyesre sikerültek egyes részek, megvitatjuk azt, hogy hogyan is szeretünk embereket és tárgyakat. Egymásnak feszül az én bántó minimalizmusom, és a Körti maximalizmusa. Zene Spanyolország és a csepp alakú Sri Lanka vidékéről. Az adáskép maga Pipi néni. Szívesen.

Host Jeremy C. Park talks with Anna Stoiber, Development Director with Operation Warm, who highlights the nonprofit organization and their mission of "providing warmth, confidence, and hope through basic need programs that connect under-resourced children to the community resources they need to thrive." During the interview, Anna shares how the organization began in 1998, and how their efforts have expanded from providing coats to now including athletic shoes and sports bras, distributing over 7 million items through partnerships with companies like FedEx and International Paper, community organizations, and other nonprofits. The organization uses an efficient logistics system to plan events where children can select new items that fit them, creating meaningful connections between volunteers and youth while improving school attendance and confidence. Supporters can contribute through individual donations starting at $25 or corporate partnerships, with more information available at operationwarm.org.Operation Warm's Expanding Community ImpactAnna Stoiber, Development Director of Operation Warm, explains that the organization was founded in 1998 by Dick Sanford who initially provided 58 coats to children near Philadelphia, and since then the organization has grown to provide 7 million coats and other necessities to children in need. She describes how Operation Warm has evolved beyond coats to include athletic shoes with two pairs of socks in 2020 and sports bras in 2023, all based on feedback from community partners about essential items needed by children in their programs.Operation Warm: Community Clothing SupportAnna explains that Operation Warm connects with local organizations supporting children in need, providing garments as an extra basic need beyond clothing, food, and shelter. In Tennessee, partnerships with companies like FedEx, International Paper, Subaru, and firefighter departments have distributed over 25,000 coats and shoes to children in the past two years. The program creates meaningful connections between volunteers and children at events where kids can choose new, colorful items that fit them, creating moments of joy and showing children that their community cares about them.Operation Warm's Outreach and SupportAnna explains Operation Warm's logistics for providing coats and shoes to children, using an algorithm to predict sizes and needs for schools, with direct shipping through FedEx to reach even rural communities. The planning process typically takes 6-8 weeks for full-service events, though direct shipments to community organizations can be arranged more quickly. Anna outlines various ways to support their efforts, from individual $25 donations (covering one coat or pair of shoes) to corporate partnerships, with options for fundraising through their website where supporters can set goals and receive toolkits with promotional materials.Operation Warm's Community Impact SuccessAnna shares that Operation Warm receives excellent feedback from corporate partners, with 100% of corporate volunteers expressing interest in participating again, and partners like FedEx and the First Lady of Tennessee's office returning because of the meaningful connections made. Jeremy emphasizes that beyond providing coats and shoes, the program builds community through relationships between volunteers and youth. Anna adds that feedback from schools is particularly positive, noting that the "newness factor" of items makes a significant difference for children who may have never owned something brand new, improving school attendance, focus in class, and confidence.Operation Warm Community Feedback InitiativeAnna emphasizes the importance of community feedback in keeping Operation Warm's products and programming fresh and impactful, encouraging donations of any size and input on their offerings. She explains that innovation is one of their core values as they strive to be efficient and effective. Jeremy concludes by asking where people can connect with Operation Warm, and Anna directs them to operationwarm.org and their social media channels where people can donate or partner with the organization.So, visit https://operationwarm.org to learn more about and get involved with Operation Warm.https://www.facebook.com/OperationWarm/https://www.linkedin.com/company/operationwarm/DONATE

TALK TO ME, TEXT ITEver wondered what happens when a fighter jet malfunctions mid-flight? This morning's update takes you through the heart-stopping story of an F-35 pilot who spent 50 minutes on a conference call with engineers while still piloting his failing $200 million aircraft. The hydraulic system malfunction eventually forced a dramatic ejection as the jet spiraled toward the runway at an Alaskan Air Force base. Thankfully, the pilot parachuted to safety before the aircraft burst into flames upon impact.We also dive into a fascinating scientific explanation for the Bermuda Triangle mystery that has puzzled humanity for centuries. Dr. Simon Boxall, an oceanographer from the University of Southampton, proposes that the area's notorious disappearances may be caused by enormous rogue waves reaching heights of nearly 100 feet. These monster waves form when multiple storm systems converge simultaneously, potentially breaking ships in half and leaving little evidence behind. Could this natural phenomenon finally explain the approximately 20 aircraft and countless ships that have vanished in this mysterious region?The update wraps up with news about Melania Trump reportedly laughing at and rejecting Vanity Fair's offer to feature her on their cover. While the magazine's staff threatened to walk out if she appeared, sources close to the former First Lady reveal she had already declined, prioritizing her ongoing work with AI technology in schools over photo shoots. We close with a thought-provoking question: If you could suggest a special project for the First Lady to champion, what would it be? Share your ideas and join the conversation about how public figures can best use their platform for meaningful impact.Buzzsprout - Let's get your podcast launched!Start for FREE Thanks for listening!

Steve interviews Jane Leavy (00:31:45) the author of a new book about what is ailing baseball called, "Make Me Commissioner." The First Lady of The Sports-Casters returns with a new book detailing her plans to return baseball to its rightful place in the American experience. Jane and Steve talk about analytics and how it has helped and hurt baseball, the injuries crushing pitchers, and the discrepancy in payrolls across the Major Leagues. Jane also explains why she didn't write about a player this time, why she will never write about Joe DiMaggio, and why she still hasn't decided what she will write next. Steve starts the show with first things first. The 2025 Braves are not going down without a fight, the New Orleans Saints name Spencer Rattler the starting quarterback, and Italian football has returned for the 2025-26 season. The show ends with one last thing as Paula joins us to talk about a family vacation to see Oasis. For more information follow the podcast on twitter @sports_casters Email: thesportscasters@gmail.com

Lee Carroll joins The First Lady of Nutrition for a fascinating deep dive into the amazing world of functional mushrooms. Lee is a distinguished medical herbalist, innovator, speaker, educator, and mentor to health professionals worldwide. Ann Louise and Lee cover everything from mushroom coffee vs. supplements to why mushrooms deliver nutrients you won't find elsewhere. Surprising fact: humans and fungi share 30% DNA! The conversation spotlights ergothioneine—a unique antioxidant concentrated in red blood cells, the eyes, and the liver that Lee believes is poised to become the next big discovery in health circles. You'll learn where this compound is most concentrated (Golden Oyster leads the pack; Lion's Mane and Shiitake are other strong sources). In addition, you'll be privy to not only the specific amounts of these exclusive nutrients, but also why researchers are hard at work developing a test that may flag neurological risk years earlier. Lee also offers a fresh lens on why women face more autoimmunity disorders than men and how mushroom nutrients may support immune balance. These two titans of health touch on product quality, cancer-care conversations, and Lee's Top 5 mushroom picks.  Curious which mushrooms to sip, stack, or sauté? Press play—and start a smarter mushroom routine. Learn more about Lee at herbameditari.com or realmushrooms.com.

In 2011, court filings from JPMorgan revealed that Jeffrey Epstein—already a registered sex offender—paid a $25,000 tuition bill at Skidmore College for one of Cecile de Jongh's children, upon her direct request via email subject‑lined “Please approve.” This was no act of charity; this was influence-peddling in plain sight. At the same time, de Jongh was coordinating policy to benefit Epstein, soliciting his input on softening a sex‑offender law to allow him freer movement within the territory. By drawing up legislation that Epstein could personally exploit while cashing in on his largesse, de Jongh blurred the line between public service and private profiteering.Moreover, the tuition payment fits into a broader pattern of de Jongh being Epstein's political and logistical conduit in the U.S. Virgin Islands. JPMorgan labeled her as his “primary conduit for spreading money and influence” within the territory, citing other ways she facilitated his trafficking network—from arranging visas to crafting cover‑class schemes.^1 The tuition bill is far less an isolated favor and far more an emblem of how Epstein weaponized connections with public officials to shield his abuse. De Jongh's actions weren't innocent oversights—they were integral to maintaining a corrupt system of protection and impunity.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Jeffrey Epstein had close ties to U.S. Virgin Islands First Family | FortuneBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

If you knew the world was about to end, what would you do? That's the dilemma Karen Gillan's character faces in new film, The Life of Chuck, in which she stars opposite Chiwetel Ejiofor. Karen tells Nuala McGovern about her latest role, her evolving relationship with the Marvel films and her hope to return to directing.'This report must act as a line in the sand…it should be read as a snapshot of what rock bottom looks like.' That's the warning from the Children's Commissioner, two years on from her landmark report on the scale of children's exposure to pornography online. Research out today from the Commissioner's Office finds that more children are being exposed to pornography, with a growing number stumbling across it by accident, some younger than six. Much of the content children encounter is violent. The report also reveals troubling attitudes towards women and girls: nearly half of 16- to 21-year-olds agreed with the statement, 'Girls may say no at first but can be persuaded to have sex.' Joining Nuala in the studio is the Children's Commissioner Dame Rachel de Souza.As excitement builds ahead of the Women's Rugby World Cup, we hear from endurance athlete Lexi Chambers. The five-time world record holder is in the middle of another epic challenge, wheeling 322 miles from Twickenham Stadium to Sunderland's Stadium of Light to deliver the official match whistle in time for Friday's opening game between England and the USA. Lexi, who lives with multiple chronic pain conditions, is aiming to complete 10 ultramarathons in 10 days using her every day, non-sport wheelchair. She takes a break to fill Nuala in on her progress and explain why she's taken on such a challenge.When Ukrainian President Zelensky went to the White House this week, he handed over a letter to President Trump. It was a message from his wife Olena Zelenska to Melania Trump, thanking the First Lady for the letter she had sent to Vladimir Putin highlighting the issue of the Ukrainian children removed by Russian forces. It's believed that at least 20,000 Ukrainian children have been taken to Russia or Russian-occupied territory without the consent of their parents since the full-scale invasion. Nuala is joined by Ukrainian filmmaker Shahida Tulaganova and BBC Ukraine journalist Irena Taranyuk to discuss.

Straight off the back of the Alaska summit with Vladimir Putin, Donald Trump hosted Volodymyr Zelensky at the White House as he pushes for an end to the war in Ukraine.The last time they met in the Oval Office, it ended in an argument in front of the world's media. It was a friendlier encounter this time, with Zelensky handing a letter to Donald Trump from his wife to the First Lady, Melania Trump. It was soon followed by a meeting of major European leaders, all of whom travelled to Washington in solidarity with the Ukrainian president. Beyond the smiles and warm words, how much was actually agreed at today's meetings, and are we any closer to a trilateral summit between Russia, Ukraine and the U.S?You can now listen to Newscast on a smart speaker.

Shamefully, newly uncovered emails show that Cecile de Jongh—former First Lady of the US Virgin Islands—invited convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein to weigh in on updates to the territory's sex offender registration laws. “This is the suggested language; will it work for you?” she reportedly wrote to Epstein in 2011, effectively soliciting his input on legislation meant to keep predators in check. Epstein responded with self-serving suggestions—like adding lenient residency exemptions—to protect his own freedom of movement. It's not just a grotesque incompetence—it reads like willful subversion from someone supposed to protect the public.Even more vile: de Jongh didn't merely dialogue with Epstein over legislature; she allegedly helped arrange visas and tailored ESL classes for young women linked to him, enabling his trafficking network. These revelations aren't isolated lapses—they reveal a deeply compromised system where powerful officials invited a predator into the law‑making process, trading public safety for personal access. The corruption isn't metaphorical—it's documented.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Jeffrey Epstein consulted on Virgin Islands sex offender law (lawandcrime.com)

I remember I texted you and Coach La that I was living in Satan's butthole the past couple of days. I thought I was going to melt a couple of times. But seriously, even though it was hellfire hot, I had an incredible time and I can't wait to unpack that later in the show.   Show Sponsor: UCAN UCAN created LIVSTEADY as an alternative to sugar based nutrition products.

We had an improvement rate 15% across the board. Coach Dennis Hetland and I had the privilege of running Lane 3 – Aim High! – and we say remarkable results in both dropping stroke counts and smashing the 100-yard benchmark.   I want to give a special shout-out to Coach Gene Deyoe who was in my lane. Coach Gene dropped two strokes from his 25-yard distance, and 11 seconds off his 100-yard time! He had such a great attitude and always appreciated the feedback we gave. He was a joy to coach.   Second, we had Jay Camp, Coach Chad Rolf's athlete, in our lane and he was a hoot to work with! I especially enjoyed his dry sense of humor–very much like Coach Chad. He was also very receptive to feedback and his results showed how much work he put into his Functional Freestyle. He reduced his stroke count by 4 for 25 yards which is massive! Think about all that energy he will save because of his efficiency in the water! Get this, he shaved 29 seconds off his 100-yard benchmark. I was blown away by his improvements. He winked at me and told me not to tell his coach, which I promptly did LOL! Can't wait to hear how his new zones treat him after that incredible improvement.   Finally, the last thing I'll share is that even though it was hotter than hell on deck, we had some of the best lifeguards. They would come around every 20 minutes or so with buckets of cold water with rags that we could put on our heads and necks. It kept me from being a heat casualty for sure as the temps reached 114 degrees. So again, thank you to the McClintock Pool Lifeguards for coming in clutch last weekend! You made our pool school a huge success!    USAT Nationals Update: Milwaukee transformed into the epicenter of multisport excellence as it hosted the 2025 USA Triathlon Sprint and Olympic Distance National Championships. Thousands of amateur athletes from across the country descended on the city to compete, connect, and celebrate the sport we love. Race Highlights The action kicked off Friday with an open water swim in Lake Michigan, open to all registrants. Saturday brought the Olympic Distance National Championships, featuring a 1,500m swim, 40k bike, and 10k run. Athletes raced through Milwaukee's scenic lakefront, crossing the iconic Daniel Hoan Memorial Bridge and finishing in Veterans Park [1]. Sunday was slated for the Sprint Distance Nationals and Paratriathlon Championships, but heavy overnight rain led to the cancellation of the sprint race for safety reasons [1]. Despite the disappointment, many athletes expressed gratitude for having raced earlier in the weekend. One athlete shared on Facebook: “Grateful I got to race yesterday. The stitches and bandaging got me through great. Heat, humidity, and wind were the factor yesterday, not the ankle wrap.” Yes, you heard that right—this athlete raced with stitches, tetanus, and antibiotics after a pre-race injury involving a bike and a hotel room. Talk about grit and determination! Celebration of Sport Gala & Hall of Fame Inductions Thursday night's Celebration of Sport Gala, hosted at Discovery World, was a moving tribute to the spirit of triathlon. The event honored the USA Triathlon Hall of Fame Class XIII, which included: Colleen Cannon – 1984 Nice World Champion and founder of Women's Quest. Graham Fraser – Race producer and visionary behind Ironman North America. Ellen Hart – 18-time World Age Group Champion and Ironman podium regular. Paul Martin – Paratriathlon legend and author who turned adversity into triumph. Kenny Souza – Duathlon pioneer and charismatic ambassador of the sport [2] [3]. Here's a breakdown of the 2025 USA Triathlon Hall of Fame inductees and their connections to Colorado: Colleen Cannon Lives in Boulder, Colorado. After retiring from professional racing, she founded Women's Quest, a Boulder-based adventure retreat company focused on empowering women through outdoor activities and wellness. She was inducted into the Boulder Sports Hall of Fame in 2017 [1]. Ellen Hart Lives in Niwot, Colorado, and previously served as First Lady of Denver during her marriage to former Denver Mayor Federico Peña. She is a longtime Colorado resident, Harvard graduate, and University of Colorado Law School alum. Hart has been a prominent figure in the Colorado endurance community and was inducted into the Colorado Running Hall of Fame [2]. Final Thoughts Milwaukee once again proved why it's a favorite host city for USA Triathlon. From the scenic course to the passionate community, the weekend was a celebration of perseverance, excellence, and camaraderie.

After years of competing in the figure and bodybuilding world, she found her way into multisport through duathlon in 2018 and transitioned to triathlon in 2019. She now races across sprint, Olympic, and 70.3 distances, with 70.3 being her favorite. Lauren is passionate about working with athletes of all backgrounds and experience levels, helping them navigate real-life challenges—like time constraints, fitness level, or self-doubt—to discover what they're truly capable of. As the Grit2Greatness Ambassador Program Manager, Lauren will lead the charge in building a vibrant community of athletes who proudly represent G2G—at races, on social media, and in everyday moments that matter. She's here to empower you, connect you, and help each of you feel even more supported on this journey. Lauren, we are beyond excited to have you on board Questions for Lauren: Two Truths and a LIe Icebreaker: I danced on stage with Brittney Spears, I once got lost on a training ride and ended up in a different state; Before being an endurance athlete, I competed as a pro with the International Federation of Body Builders Where did you grow up and where do you call home? Tell us about your athlete journey? Tell us about your coach journey? Your vision for the G2G ambassador program? When I think about the Grit2Greatness Ambassador Program, I picture a true community—one that builds on the incredible foundation we've already created, but keeps growing in depth, reach, and connection. In our world, every athlete has a seat at the table. Whether you're brand new to the sport or you've been racing for decades, whether you prefer the excitement of a sprint or the challenge of an IRONMAN, you belong here. This is a space where every athlete is encouraged to step in, be seen, and thrive. My biggest hope for this year is to welcome a wave of new athletes into triathlon—people who may have been curious, but unsure if they'd fit in—and show them that this sport is for everyone. And beyond racing, I want this to be a place where we support each other's growth both inside and outside of sport. I'd love for us to lead more community events, take part in races together, and deepen relationships with race directors and the brands that make our sport stronger. My heart tells me this program is just at the beginning of its potential, and I truly cannot wait to see what we create together. Get Gritty Tip: 66-Day Challenge! Rich, as you know, I am a huge fan of the book, The ONE Thing, by Gary Keller and Jay Papasan and one of the favorite lessons I learned is about the power of breaking down habits into bite size pieces that you can consistently sustain over time. I've actually crafted several keystone habits over the past five years through using the tools from The ONE Thing.  For example, I built the habit of setting aside my gym clothes every night before work. We have our habit of reading the Daily Stoic as a morning ritual, and now we share our 3 wins and 3 things we are grateful for each day. These habits have been critical for helping me make each day purpose-driven and intentionally meaningful. So that brings me to the habit I am now currently working on. I decided at the beginning of the year that I wanted to complete 10 unassisted pull-ups by the end of 2025. I was going strong for the first 3 months and kind of fell off with the start of race season. Well, after doing my mid-year reset I realized I needed to get back on the proverbial horse, and what better way to do that than a 66-day pull-up challenge! So why 66 days? If you've read The ONE Thing then you'll remember in Chapter #6 the discussion around a study the University College of London did on how long it takes on average to create a habit–66 days. So my challenge, because I know how important it is to start small, is to complete 1 pull per day for 66 days. Now, I do as many as I can and right now, I'm on Day 10 and I'm up to 4 unassisted pull-ups. I also use a band and knock out as many as I can with the assist to help me continue to progress. I'm also hoping I can start adding in weighted pull-ups as we get further down the road. The other part of the challenge is to post the evidence on social media which 1) keeps me accountable, and 2) inspires others to join me! I found out today that Coach Will Nichols, @coachironwill on Instagram, bought his own pull-up bar and started his 66-day pull-up challenge!  So I want to throw the challenge out there to you, Rich, and to our audience! It doesn't have to be pull-ups, but what's one thing you can commit to doing for 66 days that helps you on your athletic journey! I want you to share with us and tag me @getgrittywithme on Instagram so I can cheer you on just like Coach Will!   TriDot Workout of the Week: Orientation Swim   Open Water Swim is the Workout of the Week I've chosen for a couple of reasons. One, it is so helpful to get in the body of water you will be racing in and get a feel for swim start, current, temperature, lighting, sun direction, weeds, swim exit, which goggles work best,  etc.    In Milwaukee this was key. They had the course setup and we were able to swim the buoys through the bridge and practice the swim exit as it would be on race day. It also gave us the opportunity  to get comfortable with the high likelihood of the race not being wetsuit legal.I chose to do the practice swim in just my TriDot swim jammers.   Here's a full list of benefits: Course Familiarization Swim the actual course (or as much as allowed) to understand sighting landmarks, turns, and exit points. Identify key buoys: Start buoy, turn buoys, and finish buoy. Practice sighting using fixed landmarks (buildings, trees, flags) beyond the buoys. Note water entry and exit terrain: Is it sandy, rocky, slippery, or grassy? Environmental Awareness Assess water conditions: Temperature, current, chop, visibility. Practice breathing on both sides if waves or sun glare may affect one side. Check for wind direction and how it may affect swim navigation. Gear Check Test your race-day gear: Goggles (anti-fog), wetsuit, swim cap. Practice wetsuit entry and exit to simulate transitions. Try different goggles if visibility or sun glare is an issue. Mental Preparation Visualize race morning: From lining up at the start to exiting the water. Practice your start strategy: Deep water start, beach start, or time trial start. Swim with others to simulate race-day contact and drafting. Technique & Strategy Practice sighting rhythm: Every 6–10 strokes is typical. Work on pacing: Start controlled, build into race effort. Try drafting behind or beside another swimmer if allowed. Safety & Logistics Locate lifeguards or safety personnel and understand emergency protocols. Note the location of medical tents or aid stations near swim exit. Time your swim to understand how long it takes at race pace.   Fun Segment: Triathlon Hot Takes Debate! So I happened upon this article in Triathlete Magazine titled “7 Spicy-Hot Debates Triathletes Can't Stop Arguing” and I thought this would be a perfectly juicy topic of discussion for this week's fun segment! Your assignment is to convincingly argue your case in 20 seconds or less. Time to bring the heat! Are you Team Bare or Team Hair: Do you shave your body hair for triathlon or go au naturel? Which is harder: Training for an Ironman or training for a marathon PR? Flying dismount or unclipping, foot down? White Tri Suits? Yay or Nay? Sprint or jog into the finisher chute? Post every workout on social media, or no? Which is more impressive? Ironman World Champion or Olympic Champion? Well there you have it. We laid our opinions on the line and now it's your turn! We want to hear from you: are you team bare or team hair? Is training for a marathon PR harder than training for an Ironman? And what about white tri suits? Give us your opinions and we'll see who truly won the Triathlon Hot Takes Debate!   Closing:   Thanks again for listening this week. Please be sure to follow us @303Triathlon and @grit2greatnessendurance and of course go to iTunes and give us a rating and a comment. We'd really appreciate it! Stay tuned, train informed and enjoy the endurance journey!

More Jeffrey Epstein drama as First Lady Melanie Trump's attorneys say she will seek 1 billion dollars in damages in a lawsuit against Hunter Biden. A Tennessee man in behind bars accused of incinerating his father in a firepit. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Shamefully, newly uncovered emails show that Cecile de Jongh—former First Lady of the US Virgin Islands—invited convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein to weigh in on updates to the territory's sex offender registration laws. “This is the suggested language; will it work for you?” she reportedly wrote to Epstein in 2011, effectively soliciting his input on legislation meant to keep predators in check. Epstein responded with self-serving suggestions—like adding lenient residency exemptions—to protect his own freedom of movement. It's not just a grotesque incompetence—it reads like willful subversion from someone supposed to protect the public.Even more vile: de Jongh didn't merely dialogue with Epstein over legislature; she allegedly helped arrange visas and tailored ESL classes for young women linked to him, enabling his trafficking network. These revelations aren't isolated lapses—they reveal a deeply compromised system where powerful officials invited a predator into the law‑making process, trading public safety for personal access. The corruption isn't metaphorical—it's documented.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Jeffrey Epstein consulted on Virgin Islands sex offender law (lawandcrime.com)Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

As the only American, aside from Princess Grace Kelly, to attain the esteemed position of First Lady of Nice and the French Riviera, Ilene's story is both unique and captivating. Born and raised in the heart of Beverly Hills, California, with two famous uncles—Max Factor, the iconic cosmetic mogul, and Jake the Barber, a pivotal figure in the rise of Las Vegas—Ilene's path to prominence seemed almost destined.“Arrested” is a riveting memoir that takes you through Ilene's extraordinary journey, from her star-studded upbringing to her glamorous and, at times, perilous life on the French Riviera. Marrying Jacques Médecin, a Medici Count affectionately known as “King Jacquou,” Ilene found herself at the center of a century-old political dynasty. Together, they mingled with royals, celebrities, and politicians, sharing their social circle with the likes of Princess Grace Kelly and Prince Rainier.Ilene's life, akin to a storybook Camelot, saw her at the pinnacle of a fantasy existence. However, this enchanting narrative took a dramatic turn, leading her from the heights of societal acclaim to the depths of a French prison cell. Amidst trysts and scandals, Ilene was unprepared for the fall of a prominent political family and her eventual arrest for her husband's alleged misdeeds. Jacques's career ended in a puzzling political exile in Uruguay, a stark contrast to his previous stature as Mayor of Nice, President of Alpes-Maritimes, French Minister of Tourism, and Member of Parliament.Connect with Ilene:Website: https://countessilenemedecin.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/countessilenemedecin/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/countessilenemedecinYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@countessilenemedecinBook: https://www.amazon.com/Arrested-Memoir-American-France-Riviera/dp/1667882406?&linkCode=sl1&tag=wrina...Thank you for listening.

But something shifted when she sat in those classrooms and looked around - she saw legacy kids, athletes, students who made her wonder "how'd you get here?" The realization hit her like lightning: if she could succeed at one of the world's top schools, then everything they'd told her about not belonging was a lie. The curtain had been pulled back on elitism, and she finally saw the scam for what it was - people wanting her to believe she didn't belong when she absolutely did.That experience at Princeton became her armor decades later when she faced the same doubts as First Lady. The questions about her patriotism, her education, whether she and Barack were "capable of representing our country" - it was the same playbook, just a bigger stage. But this time, she knew the truth her parents had taught her at their kitchen table: you can't base your worth on what anyone thinks except those who truly know you. She learned to filter everything - to let her communications team tell her only what she objectively needed to know, never reading the comment sections, treating both the extreme praise and vicious criticism with the same distance. Because when you trust your own experience over everyone else's opinion, you become unstoppable.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter

Congressional investigations into Jeffrey Epstein are now focusing on Bill and Hillary Clinton with subpoenas going out to the former President and First Lady, as well as other key players in the Epstein affair — but not Donald Trump, Kash Patel or Pam Bondi. As Jimmy and Americans' Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss, the investigators have to date pointedly avoided asking about Epstein's 17 visits to the White House during Bill Clinton's presidency, instead focusing on after Clinton left office, suggesting intentional deflection. The hosts agree that the most incriminating Epstein connections are being ignored, including what led to the sweetheard plea bargain Epstein received from then US Attorney and later Trump Labor Secretary Alex Acosta. Plus a segment on Bill Maher's unhinged and unfailing support for Israel and the establishment. Also featuring Stef Zamorano!

In this episode, The First Lady of Nutrition welcomes Dr. Noel Baker, a respected functional medicine practitioner and one of the foremost protégés of Dr. Theodore Baroody, author of the groundbreaking book, The Hiatal Hernia Syndrome: The Mother of All Illnesses. Together, they explore a little-understood health issue—a hiatal hernia, which is essentially a misalignment of the stomach that can trigger a ripple effect of symptoms throughout the body. Ann Louise speaks from experience, having personally worked with Dr. Baker and experienced the healing process firsthand. A hiatal hernia is more than just a mechanical issue or a cause of common indigestion. It can be the hidden source behind a wide array of symptoms that many people—and their doctors—struggle to explain. This can include alarming symptoms that mimic heart attacks, a hijacked fight-or-flight response, disrupted vagus nerve function, trouble taking a deep breath and swallowing, plus a domino effect of stress-related imbalances throughout the body including anxiety. Listeners will also gain insight into the importance of the “alpha state,” the role of neurofeedback in restoring calm and nervous system balance, and how holistic practices like grounding, yoga, stretching—and even an unconventional method known as the “stomach egg”—can play a powerful role in the healing process.

The post Hiatal Hernia: The Mother of All Illnesses – Episode 200: Dr. Noel Baker first appeared on Ann Louise Gittleman, PhD, CNS.
