Before Abraham Lincoln could take office, conspirators were already plotting to kill him. From a covert escape through Baltimore to the first cannon blast at Fort Sumter, this episode plunges into the tense, violent opening of the Civil War. Follow Lincoln's election, the collapse of the Union, the chaos of Bull Run, Grant's brutal victory at Shiloh, Lee's invasion of Maryland, and the bloodshed at Antietam, Fredericksburg, and Chancellorsville. Along the way, Lincoln confronts failed generals, staggering casualties, and the defining decision to issue the Emancipation Proclamation, transforming the war from a fight to save the Union into a battle for freedom.

After a decade of ideological conformity, is American theater ready to laugh at itself again? This week Meghan is joined by Broadway star, comedian, and producer PJ Adzima, founder of Stage Time NYC and producer of Slam Frank—a mind-melting new musical that reimagines The Diary of Anne Frank through "an intersectional, multi-ethnic, genderqueer, Afro-Latin hip-hop lens." (You read that right.) Slam Frank was conceived by composer and lyricist Andrew Fox, who was stunned and inspired by a Twitter thread in which someone asked, "Did Anne Frank ever examine her white privilege?" (You also read that right.) A play within a play about a progressive theater company twisting itself into knots trying to stay on the right side of history, the show has provoked both walkouts and rave reviews—including in The New York Times. (Again, you read that right.) PJ and Meghan discuss the transformation of the theater world over the past decade, the legacy of The Book of Mormon (in which he starred for many years), the "Dear White American Theater" manifesto, and why he believes great art cannot be created by checking ideological boxes. They also talk about what happens when artists prioritize pleasing everyone over having a point of view—and why live performance still matters in an era dominated by algorithms and social media. PJ was recently added as a guest at The Unspeakeasy's Small Gathering for Big Ideas retreat, Oct 19-21 in Kingston, NY. He joins fellow speakers John McWhorter and Lisa Marchiano. Spaces are filling fast. Info here. Slam Frank opens off-Broadway at New York's Orpheum Theater in September. Guest Bio: PJ Adzima starred on Broadway in The Book of Mormon and is the founder of Stage Time, an underground-style variety theater company and artist collective in New York City. He is also producer of Slam Frank.
Human Design and astrology just handed everyone a hard reset, and August 2026 is where you find out what you're rebuilding. In their monthly transit episode, Nicole sits down with astrologer Christina Luna to make sense of why July wrung so many of us out, and what changes the moment the nodes move onto a brand-new axis. They get into the transit that takes the governor off your engine and hands your free will back. They name the two Human Design gates now steering the collective story, without telling you what to do with them. And Nicole finally says what she actually thinks about the Lionsgate portal, before your feed fills up with it. From there, Nicole and Christina walk the month. Venus moves into Libra and the ground steadies. The middle stretch goes foggy on purpose. And once Virgo season opens, the whole pace changes. Stay to the end for the few days in late August when even the least emotional people among us might need a hug and not be able to explain why. If July left you feeling like you pedaled ten miles and never moved, this episode reframes the whole thing and hands you the map for what's next.

Send us Fan MailSome stories entertain us.Some stories stay with us.This is the story that stayed with me.When I was a teenager on a family vacation to Colorado, I heard a storyteller named Scotty Vaughn perform "Rindercella," a classic story written by Archie Campbell of Hee Haw. I had no idea that one evening at the Flying W Ranch would shape the way I would tell stories for the rest of my life.Looking back now, I don't think I brought that story home.I think...It brought me.Today I'm building Five Minutes in America—a storytelling project dedicated to preserving the stories, character, and principles that have always made America worth passing along.If this kind of storytelling speaks to you, I'd love to have you become a member.

What happens when the identity you've spent years building no longer feels aligned? In this solo episode, I'm reflecting on the evolution of my work, the grief of letting go of an identity, and the unexpected freedom that comes from allowing yourself to become someone new. This is a continuation of two earlier podcast conversations Follow the Energy and The Life, Death, and Rebirth of Chef Carla and together they've become an exploration of creative identity, visibility, and what it means to step into who you are today, even if you don't know the next step.For more than a decade, many people have known me as Chef Carla. That identity opened opportunities and shaped my career in food media. But over the past year, I've realized food was never the whole story. What has always lit me up is helping people bring their ideas to life. Now, I help clients launch books and products, build content ecosystems, find their voice on Substack, and connect the dots between all the ways they show up in the world. I'm not just helping people create content. I am supporting people to create, share and build the creative visibility that allows them and their work to be seen.I share the story of losing my dream opportunity. That unexpected loss forced me to rethink not only my business, but also who I believed I was. Sometimes growth doesn't come from getting what we want, it comes from learning who we are when those plans fall apart. Yes, I love Pema and regularly read, The Wisdom of No Escape.I talk about how creating Creative Visibility Summer with Valerie Oula has become an anchor during my own identity shift. How I am saying yes to opportunities and share about creating in-person events like Substack Creative Club and how it's helping me build a business that feels deeply aligned with who I am now.If you're navigating a career transition, redefining your creative identity, or thinking of releasing a title, business, or version of yourself that no longer aligns, I hope this episode reminds you that reinvention is part of the creative process. You are always being supported and we are holding the vision for you and your next evolution.Listen to the episode on Apple Podcasts and Spotify, or on your favorite podcast platform while you cook, clean, or create.

Six companies recently announced dividend increases, but not all dividend hikes tell the same story.In this video, I break down each dividend increase, discuss what it says about the company's financial health, and explain whether the raise strengthens the long-term investment thesis. A growing dividend is often a sign of growing earnings, strong free cash flow, and management's confidence in the future, but it's important to separate meaningful increases from token raises.If you're a long-term dividend growth investor, this is a great way to stay up to date on the latest income opportunities.Join the Yieldr WaitlistWe're getting very close to announcing our official launch date.

#126: You spent years studying nutrition…so why can starting solid foods with your own baby still feel so overwhelming? If you're a dietitian who is also a new mom, this episode is for you. I'm sharing why so many RDs feel underprepared to counsel families on baby-led weaning, even though we are the nutrition experts. We'll talk about the education gap around readiness, choking-risk reduction, allergens, texture progression, responsive feeding, and the practical skills families are already asking us about. I'll also share why baby-led weaning can be more than something you want to learn for your own baby. It may also be the specialized career niche you've been looking for. Plus, I'll tell you about our new Baby-Led Weaning Certification Course for Dietitians and how to join the founding members cohort before enrollment closes July 17 using code BLWDAY for 40% off at blwpro.org. Listen to this episode to learn: 1. Why so many dietitians feel underprepared to counsel families on baby-led weaning—even though we're the food and nutrition experts—and where the biggest education gaps still exist. 2. How to confidently answer the questions parents are already asking about readiness to eat, gagging versus choking, allergen introduction, texture progression, and responsive feeding using an evidence-based approach. 3. What it takes to specialize in baby-led weaning as a dietitian, who the new Baby-Led Weaning Certification Course is designed for, and how it can help you build confidence in your practice while creating new career opportunities.

What if intimacy didn't have to look the way you've always been told it should? What if creating connection, pleasure, and intimacy was less about following someone else's script—and more about discovering what actually works for you? In this heartfelt and empowering conversation, Dr. Sonia is joined by longtime friend, coach, and Reignite co-creator Coach Donna Jennings to explore a simple but powerful metaphor: You don't have to ride every ride at the amusement park to have an amazing day. Together, they discuss how this same truth applies to intimacy. Many women enter midlife carrying years of expectations, shame, obligation, people-pleasing, and outdated beliefs about what intimacy "should" look like. But intimacy isn't about checking boxes or performing for someone else's satisfaction. It's about creating experiences that feel safe, pleasurable, meaningful, and authentic to you. Through stories, laughter, vulnerability, and practical wisdom, Dr. Sonia and Coach Donna explore how women can reclaim choice, communicate their desires, honor their boundaries, and create intimacy that reflects who they are now—not who they were decades ago. Because intimacy is not a one-size-fits-all experience. And you absolutely do not have to ride every ride.

In this solo episode of Sales & Cigars, Walter Crosby shares why AI isn't the threat many sales professionals believe it is. Instead of replacing great salespeople, AI is raising the standard by eliminating excuses and exposing those who rely on shortcuts instead of skill. Walter explains why trust, judgment, curiosity, and meaningful conversations remain the true competitive advantages in complex B2B sales. He also introduces the new Sales Integrator Community, a free resource created to help salespeople and sales managers continue developing their craft through coaching, practical tools, and ongoing discussions. Whether you're a salesperson worried about AI, a sales manager coaching your team, or a CEO building a sales organization, this episode offers practical advice on how to embrace technology without losing the human advantage. Episode Highlights Why AI isn't replacing salespeople—it's exposing average ones Introducing the new free Sales Integrator Community Why great salespeople don't automatically become great sales managers How AI should be used as a tool—not a replacement Why personalization isn't the same as genuine connection Building trust through conversations, not automation How AI can improve preparation, research, and consistency Why judgment is becoming one of the most valuable sales skills Coaching salespeople to make better decisions Why authentic human relationships will become even more valuable as AI evolves Key Takeaways AI raises the standard—it doesn't eliminate salespeople. The future belongs to sales professionals who learn to leverage AI while continuing to build trust and solve complex business problems. Average performers who rely on automation instead of relationships will struggle. Trust can't be automated. AI can generate emails, summarize information, and prepare research, but buyers still choose people they trust. Authentic conversations remain the foundation of complex sales. Judgment creates competitive advantage. Knowing when to ask another question, when to challenge a prospect, and how to interpret information requires experience and critical thinking that AI can't replace. AI belongs in preparation—not persuasion. Use AI to research companies, organize information, write first drafts, summarize meetings, and automate repetitive tasks so you can spend more time having meaningful conversations. More activity doesn't mean better results. AI makes it easy to send more emails and create more content, but quantity without relevance simply creates more noise in an already crowded marketplace. Managers still have to coach. Technology cannot replace coaching. Sales managers develop judgment by asking better questions, helping reps think critically, and creating opportunities for continuous improvement. Being human is becoming more valuable. As AI-generated content becomes more common, authenticity, empathy, curiosity, and genuine relationships become stronger differentiators.

This week's Hotline opens with a topic Kelly gets asked about constantly: what exactly is Substack, and why is everyone suddenly moving there? Kelly breaks down why conscious creators and consumers are leaving the mainstream, AI-flooded platforms for a place that still feels human, how her own team grew a paid Substack faster than she ever expected after starting with zero plan, and why she now believes it's one of the best places to build a business in 2026. She explains how to use Substack as a trust-building offer, how the tiers actually work, and why the weekly deep-dive newsletter lands somewhere most content never does: the inbox. Then, we hear from two business owners: Christina (sales & enrollment consultant) — how to convert more of your marketing audience into sales calls, and stop losing revenue between launches Dr. Erin (psychologist turned coach & speaker) — how to strategically find her high-performing women clients instead of waiting for them to find her A throughline across the whole episode: no matter what happens with AI, people still buy from people, and there's a person on the other side of every million-dollar door.

This (almost) Fourth of July conversation originally appeared on Jenny Holland's channel, Saving Culture From Itself, but it's really a "collab," as they say in the pod-biz. Meghan has talked with Jenny before on YouTube livestreams, but this is the first time they've done an official podcast together. This conversation kept circling back to the kinds of tripwires and trigger points that cause people to tune out ideas before they even hear them—for instance my advocacy for Spencer Pratt in the L.A. mayoral race a few months ago and Jenny's support of . . . Brexit. (She lives in Belfast in Northern Ireland.) We also talked about how Meghan began her career at the tail end of the golden age of magazine journalism, and what it was like watching that world start to shift around 2012-13. Finally, in the spirit of the season, they talked about American exceptionalism, generosity of spirit, and Jenny's husband's 1987 trip to the US as part of the "Children of the Troubles" program — the trip that made him fall in love with this country. Catch more of Jenny's cultural critiques directly on her YouTube channel:

Being anything less than 100% yourself is unacceptable — that's the message Jupiter has for you the moment it moves into Leo. In this episode, Nicole unpacks one of the biggest transits of the year: Jupiter's move into Leo, the sign of boldness, creativity, and center stage. This kind of expansion only comes around once every 12 years, and Nicole gives you a simple exercise to find the clues for exactly what's about to unfold in your own life. She also gets personal, sharing what this same transit stirred up in her own business the last time it rolled around — and how a moment of frustration turned into one of the biggest pivots of her career. Nicole connects this transit to the bigger astrological picture headed our way, including a major shift that's already reshaping the themes of authenticity, individuality, and what it really means to stop hiding behind a mask. Then she goes sign by sign through the rising signs, breaking down exactly where in your chart this expansion is going to show up and what kind of assignment it's handing you this year. Tune in to find out what this Jupiter in Leo transit means for your rising sign — and how to actually work with it this year instead of against it.

What if you didn't have to wait until January to begin again? Halfway through the year is the perfect time to pause—not to judge yourself, but to reconnect with what matters most. In this episode, Dr. Sonia invites you to take a compassionate mid-year look at your intimacy journey. Whether your goals were to feel more connected, experience more pleasure, improve communication, or simply feel like yourself again, this episode offers a chance to reflect, celebrate your progress, and intentionally choose where you want to go next. Because intimacy isn't about perfection. It's about movement. It's about honoring the promises you make to yourself, even in small ways. And it's never too late to begin again. As Dr. Sonia shares her own experiences navigating midlife, relationships, and personal growth, she reminds us that meaningful change doesn't happen all at once—it happens through awareness, self-compassion, accountability, and small, intentional steps taken consistently over time.
Submit media fails you see, and get facts, links, images and more at TheyStandCorrected.substack.com. Join the fight for truth by becoming a Founding Member. Two mainstream news giants are using recent screwups to pretend to care about ethics and guidelines. One is NPR, where iconic reporter Nina Totenberg falsely reported that Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito was retiring. The other is the New York Times, where sports journalist Diana Russini has left the company following a so-called “scandal” involving her relationship with an NFL figure and her actions during a traffic stop. Today, Josh digs into these stories and explains what they expose about the hypocrisy of Big Media. It's as though news agencies are showing great concern about a smudge on a penthouse window, while ignoring the fact that the entire building is on a shaky foundation. Then, a look at America at 250. Virtually every country promises freedom of expression, including press freedom, in its constitution. What distinguishes democracies is the system that gives the people the power to enforce it. It’s up to every generation to carry on that fight. Josh explains why that makes today’s media failures so inexcusable. He cites how the annual White House Correspondents Association dinner and a joke from Obama factor in. Plus, a new breaking twist in the saga of the disastrous Democratic Senate candidate in Maine, Graham Platner. Why that isn't just a political story — it's a media story.

Why does the exact same messaging work for one person and fall completely flat for another? In this episode, Nicole breaks down what's really happening when you scroll Instagram or Substack and get pulled in by certain creators while others, saying nearly the same thing, leave you cold. It's not about finding the perfect phrase. Nicole unpacks why chasing the "right words" (even the ones AI hands you) will never land the way you want it to, and why copying someone else's messaging almost never works, even when you tweak it to sound like you. Nicole introduces the piece of your Human Design chart that maps directly to your magic: your conscious sun. This is the gate that determines what people actually feel from you when you're showing up in alignment, and it's the reason certain messages carry weight far beyond the words themselves. Nicole shares her own conscious sun (Gate 64, one of her Virgo gates) and how understanding it intellectually wasn't enough. She had to embody it before she saw any of the results everyone talks about. This conversation is for you if you've done all the strategic work, the funnels, the content, the offers, and you're still not seeing the growth or the buyers you know you're capable of attracting. Nicole makes the case that the path to a bigger brand and higher-ticket clients runs straight through becoming more fully yourself, not more strategic. Don't miss this one if you're ready to stop chasing the perfect words and start understanding what's actually making people stop scrolling for you.

What if the reason you don't feel motivated anymore isn't because you're stuck—but because you've outgrown the way you've been taught to succeed? In this month's energy report, Nicole is joined once again by Christina Luna to explore why July marks a significant energetic turning point for entrepreneurs. Together, they unpack the Human Design and astrological shifts influencing this season, including the transition toward the Sleeping Phoenix, changing nodal themes, Uranus entering Gemini, and the powerful planetary alignments that make this month unlike any other. More importantly, they discuss what these changes could mean for the way you lead, create, and grow your business. Throughout the conversation, Nicole and Christina explore why so many people are questioning old ambitions, losing motivation for goals that once mattered, and feeling pulled toward something they can't quite explain. They discuss the role of authenticity, desire, intuition, and emotional awareness in this new chapter, and why trying to force your way forward may no longer be the answer. If you've been wondering why the old strategies aren't working the way they used to, this episode offers a refreshing perspective on what may actually be happening beneath the surface. Whether you're feeling energized by change or unsettled by uncertainty, this conversation will help you better understand the energetic landscape of July while offering a new lens for navigating what's ahead. You may discover that what feels like confusion is actually an invitation to trust yourself more deeply—and to build your business from a place that feels genuinely aligned. Listen now!

What if the intimacy you're longing for isn't behind you... but waiting for the woman you're becoming? So many women enter midlife believing they need to "get their libido back" or return to the woman they were in their 30s. But what if that's the wrong goal? In this episode, Dr. Sonia shares a powerful shift in perspective: true intimacy isn't about recreating your past—it's about becoming the woman you are meant to be now. Drawing from years of coaching hundreds of midlife women, she introduces The Reignite Method—a transformational framework designed to help women release shame, redefine intimacy, and intentionally create the connection, pleasure, and confidence they desire in this next season of life. Because the future of your intimacy isn't found by looking backward. It's created by who you choose to become.
In this episode, Mark talks with Colleen Megowan about the history and initial founding of the AMTA and how she became the first executive officer for the organization. She talks about what she does as Senior Fellow, and her dreams for the future of AMTA, including research on including AI in modeling instruction, developing modeling methodology for math instruction and for elementary education, and an online journal for research modelers have done in their classrooms. Guest Colleen Megowan-Romanowicz Colleen Megowan-Romanowicz has taught high school and university physics, mathematics, and integrated physics and mathematics in California and Arizona for over 30 years. She learned the Modeling Method of Instruction for physics teaching in 1998 and found it to be so uncannily effective that she wanted to figure out how and why it worked. This ultimately led to a PhD in Physics Education Research at Arizona State University (ASU) focused on Modeling classroom discourse in 2007 under the direction of noted physicist David Hestenes, the theorist who originated Modeling Instruction and enjoyed 16 years of NSF support for its development and dissemination. In 2005 she helped found the American Modeling Teachers Association (AMTA), and later became its first Executive Officer. She continues her work in support of AMTA and modeling instruction research as Senior Fellow at AMTA. Email Colleen Highlights [22:17] Colleen: "And so, given that [AI is] there and it's in the hands of our students, how are we going to use it well and use it responsibly and teach them to use it well and responsibly." [26:18] Colleen: "There are plenty of modelers who do classroom research. They should have an outlet to publish that." Resources Download Transcript Ep 82 Transcript
Submit media fails you see, and get facts, links, images and more at TheyStandCorrected.substack.com. Join the fight for truth by becoming a Founding Member. When the news shows people certain images, particularly of war and suffering, it creates physical changes in their brains. It triggers part of the mind so intensely that they often can't think straight. Propagandists take advantage of this. Their greatest weapon is the media. Today, a leading expert joins Josh to explain. Clinical and neuropsychologist Orli Peter introduces us to “the kindled brain,” and what it means for us all. She explains the dangers of the mental state so many people are in; how terrorist groups have mastered the Western mindset; and why the last three years have been unlike anything she's ever seen. Also, Josh explains how a clip from the old TV show M*A*S*H fits in, and why an attack from decades ago suddenly has new relevance. And Orli discusses her experience responding publicly to New York City First Lady Rama Duwaji, who celebrated the October 7 massacres and denied the sexual assaults that day. The denial harms patients, Orli says. Big media wouldn't listen, but she found another place that did — and it “went viral.” Links, images, videos and more at theystandcorrected.substack.com Share thoughts and questions through the newsletter or the form at joshlevs.com Support: ☕BuyMeACoffee.com/joshlevs

Why does your business suddenly feel different—even though nothing has changed on the surface? More and more entrepreneurs are noticing the same thing. The strategies that once felt exciting now feel heavy. The goals that once fueled them don't carry the same energy. In this episode, Nicole explores why this shift may have far less to do with burnout or broken business models than most people think. Through the lens of Human Design and the approaching 2027 global transition, Nicole shares why so many people are feeling pulled away from hustle, performance, and old definitions of success. She explains how the changing energetic landscape is influencing the way we market, sell, create, and lead—and why trying to force yourself back into old ways of working may only create more resistance. You'll also hear Nicole's perspective on what the future of business looks like, why your brand must become a reflection of who you truly are, and the two powerful questions she believes every entrepreneur should be asking right now. If you've been wondering whether you've lost your motivation—or whether you're being guided toward a completely different way of building your business—this episode will help you see what's happening through an entirely new lens.

Send us Fan MailWhy People Don't Decide: The Science of Ethical Persuasion with Patrick Van Der BurghtHave you ever presented a great idea, made a compelling offer, or shared a logical argument only to hear... nothing?Many people assume a lack of action means someone said "no." But what if they simply didn't make a decision?In this episode of Imperfect Marketing, Kendra Corman welcomes back persuasion expert Patrick Van Der Burght to explore the science behind how people actually make decisions and why understanding that process can dramatically improve your communication, marketing, sales, leadership, and business results.Patrick is a Founding Member of the Cialdini Institute, a Cialdini Certified Trainer and Coach, business partner of Dr. Robert Cialdini, and author of How to Hear Yes More Often. Drawing on decades of research and real-world experience, he explains why most decisions are made intuitively rather than logically and how businesses can ethically influence outcomes without manipulation.Together, Kendra and Patrick discuss:• The difference between System 1 and System 2 thinking• Why logical arguments alone often fail to persuade• The hidden cost of customer indecision• The Seven Universal Principles of Persuasion• Practical ways to apply persuasion in presentations, marketing, sales, and leadership• How reciprocity, social proof, authority, liking, unity, consistency, and scarcity influence behavior• Why ethical persuasion builds long-term trust and loyalty• Common mistakes businesses make when trying to influence decisions• How to communicate value without sounding pushy• The dangers of manufactured scarcity and misleading marketing tacticsOne of the biggest takeaways from this conversation is that influence isn't about convincing people to do something they don't want to do. It's about understanding how people naturally make decisions and communicating in ways that help them confidently move forward when your solution aligns with their needs.Whether you're a business owner, marketer, salesperson, leader, speaker, or entrepreneur, this episode offers practical insights you can start applying immediately.Be sure to listen to Patrick's previous appearance on Imperfect Marketing (Episode 337) for even more examples and strategies from the world of ethical persuasion.Connect with Patrick Van Der BurghtPatrick Van Der Burght is a Founding Member of the Cialdini Institute, Cialdini Certified Trainer and Coach, and author of How to Hear Yes More Often.

There's only ONE Hector Saldana. Founding member of The Krayolas. Museum curator at the world class Wittliff Museum at Texas State University in San Marcos, Texas. Hector spent more than two decades telling the stories that many mainstream media outlets overlooked—Tejano musicians, conjunto pioneers, Chicano artists, Texas songwriters, and the cultural movements that shaped South Texas. He earned national journalism awards for his feature writing and coverage of San Antonio's music scene.What makes him Truly Significant is that he evolved from reporter to preservationist. In 2017, he was selected as the first curator of the Texas Music Collection at The Wittliff Collections, where his mission became preserving the stories, photographs, recordings, and artifacts of Texas music for future generations. That is a classic Side Quest story. A young reporter could have spent an entire career covering breaking news. Instead, Saldaña followed his curiosity into music history, Texas culture, and the people behind the songs.Over time, that side interest became a calling. His Side Quest became his significance. Several themes stand out:He Preserved Voices Before They Disappeared. Saldaña documented legends such as Flaco Jiménez, Augie Meyers, and countless regional artists whose stories might otherwise have been lost. His work often focused on the cultural significance behind the music, not just the performers themselves. He Built Bridges Between Cultures His reporting connected country music, rock and roll, Tejano, conjunto, and Mexican-American traditions. He helped Texans understand that these were not separate stories but chapters of the same Texas story.He Turned Curiosity Into Stewardship Many people collect information. Few become caretakers of an entire cultural legacy. As curator, he moved from reporting history to protecting it. A Truly Significant Reflection He thought he was covering concerts. He thought he was interviewing musicians. He thought he was writing newspaper stories. But all along, Hector Saldaña was preserving the soundtrack of Texas. And years later, when the songs faded and the musicians passed on, the stories remained. Because one curious journalist decided they mattered. That is significance. Not fame. Not headlines. Not bylines. But becoming the trusted keeper of a culture's memory. And that's why Hector Saldaña belongs as a Truly Significant Texan.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/success-made-to-last-legends--4302039/support.

What if the biggest thing holding your business back isn't your strategy—but the problem you're trying to solve? Many entrepreneurs reach a point where they begin questioning everything: their offers, their messaging, their direction, even whether they should start over completely. In this episode, Nicole explores a common pattern she sees in business owners who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from their work. Often, what looks like a strategic challenge is actually something much deeper—and the solution may not be where you've been looking. Nicole breaks down three key signs that your business may be operating out of alignment with your natural design. From relying on discipline instead of sustainable energy, to struggling to articulate what truly makes you different, to feeling like your growth has hit an invisible ceiling, she unpacks the signals that indicate it's time to pause and reassess. More importantly, she shares how to recognize these patterns before they keep you spinning in circles. You'll also hear why so many talented entrepreneurs struggle to communicate their unique value, and how Human Design can offer a different lens for understanding the gifts that set you apart. Nicole reveals an often-overlooked element in a Human Design chart that can help clarify your strengths, sharpen your message, and create greater alignment between who you are and how you build your business. If you've been feeling pulled in too many directions, questioning your next move, or wondering why success feels harder than it should, this episode offers a fresh perspective on growth, alignment, and the path forward.

Looking at the disastrous coverage of the Iran deal, Josh asks, “What imaginary mental world is the media living in? It’s as though the whole thing boils down to just gas prices, the Strait of Hormuz, maybe a mention of Iran’s nuclear threat, and of course, imaginary big, bad Israel having a magic ability to force the U.S. into a war.” Today, Josh lays out the reality. Iran presents the greatest current threat to humanity, and the Islamic regime is conducting global efforts in the effort to control as much of the world as possible. The real story involves so much shaping the world and the lives of Americans, he explains. It’s about drugs, immigration, assassination plots on U.S. soil, Islamist terrorist attacks, threats to U.S. water supplies, the safety of U.S. children’s hospitals, other shipping channels like the Panama Canal and the Red Sea, genocidal attacks on Christians, and the the safety of the world’s largest democracy (which isn't the U.S.). All this and more are wrapped up in what seems to be a disastrous capitulation to Tehran. And if this deal is as bad as it seems to be, that would be totally unsurprising given the reality of Trump’s history. Then, Josh tackles a story the media is hiding altogether: The Rape Gang Inquiry, a big new report on the systemic, horrific rape of young girls across the United Kingdom. The government has long turned a blind eye to it because acknowledging it was deemed “racist” and “Islamophobic.” A man was even jailed for talking about it. The media is a big part of the problem. Plus, a trip to LA, JOMO, and Josh's appearance on the Unapologetically Jewish podcast in conversation with host Shana Meyerson.

Have you ever looked at your life and wondered why something no longer feels right—even though everything seems to be working? Lately, Nicole has noticed a fascinating pattern emerging in the Human Design readings she's been doing. People from completely different backgrounds—entrepreneurs, corporate professionals, career changers, and even those who appear successful by every conventional measure—are all describing a similar feeling. They're not necessarily unhappy, but they can't shake the sense that something is shifting beneath the surface. In this episode, Nicole explores the deeper restlessness many people are experiencing right now and what may actually be driving it. She shares why periods of uncertainty can feel so uncomfortable, why the answers we've relied on in the past may no longer provide the same sense of security, and how Human Design can help us navigate change when logic alone isn't enough. You'll hear a thought-provoking perspective on what it means to trust yourself when the future feels unclear. Rather than searching for more certainty, more planning, or more control, Nicole invites you to consider a different possibility: that the discomfort you're feeling may be pointing you toward a new way of living, deciding, and creating. If you've been questioning your direction, feeling called toward something different, or sensing that you're standing on the edge of a new chapter without knowing exactly what comes next, this conversation offers a perspective that may change the way you see the uncertainty you're experiencing.

What if the reason Human Design still feels confusing isn't because you're doing it wrong—but because you're expecting the wrong thing from it? So many people come to Human Design hoping it will finally give them the answers: their purpose, their next step, or the secret to feeling aligned. But what if the real transformation doesn't happen when you find the answer? What if it happens when you stop chasing one? In this episode, Nicole shares a powerful story from a longtime client whose understanding of her design shifted from intellectual knowledge to true embodiment—and why that shift changes everything. Drawing from years of coaching entrepreneurs through their Human Design journeys, Nicole breaks down the four stages of growth that nearly everyone experiences. From the obsessive search for certainty to the deeper state of contemplation where your design becomes something you live rather than study, she reveals why so many people get stuck, why others give up too soon, and what it actually takes to move into lasting alignment. Along the way, Nicole explores the difference between thinking about your design and truly embodying it. She explains why alignment isn't something you achieve through more information, but through a gradual process of experimentation, awareness, and trust. You'll hear how curiosity becomes the bridge between seeking answers and experiencing real transformation. Nicole also connects these stages to manifestation, showing how the same patterns that keep people stuck in their Human Design experiment often show up in the way they approach goals, success, and creating what they want in life. If you've ever felt frustrated that you aren't "getting it" yet, this episode offers a fresh perspective on what progress really looks like—and why the breakthrough you're looking for may be closer than you think.

Subvert.fm✨ Learn about Atlas Research Group, my new team building sovereign infrastructure for social coherence and collective intelligenceIn the last episode, my conversation with C. Thi Nguyen explored “value capture”: his term for what happens when our scoring systems define what we care about and ultimately our identities. In this episode, we ask what it means to reverse this process — what you might call “value emancipation” — with Andrea Farias (LinkedIn), a Barcelona-based researcher and builder whose guiding mission to is to support the transition to a regenerative civilization aligned with the flows of our planet.Andrea investigates how digital technologies can accelerate this transition, crafting information ecosystems that reimagine knowledge creation and resource allocation. But her path to this life required some serious unlearning and a rocky road out of her prior incarnation as a healthcare tech product strategist.We invite you to ask the same questions she did, and which we ask in this converstion:• When I decouple from the desires I've identified with, what is worth taking their place?• How do we design and adopt technologies from this new, more spacious identity?• How does the local determination of plural value help us restore necessary context to human-scale decision-making?• How do we navigate the tensions between the place-ful realm of community and the placeless realm of global coordination?• Where do we need friction in our digital lives, and how can ecology and bioregionalism inspire visions for a better Web?• What does it mean to be “local to an idea or a narrative” and how does that cyber-locality interface with geographic locality?• Where do we still want abstraction for coordination at scale?Tune in for a deep dialogue on how to care for the processes that actually create life — and what it means to enact regenerative principles to personal and collective health, technology and economy.(Fun fact: although she wasn't at the time of this recording, Andrea is now a member of Atlas Research Group!
