I absolutely loved the conversation I had this week with Psychologist, and CEO and creator of the Tactical Longevity Training Program, Jenny Prohaska, PhD. Jenny has been helping individuals and agencies to do the hard work that it takes to change, shift, and improve culture. Asking tough questions, getting to the cause and not the symptom is what she does best. I thought the message she left us with was one of empowerment and hope and it starts with asking "why". http://tacticallongevity.com/https://www.linkedin.com/in/jenny-prohaska-phd-tacticallongevity/I work with the people everyone else turns to in a crisis. That means law enforcement, fire service, emergency medicine, trauma teams, and high-stakes leaders. And I help them stay durable under pressure.After years on the clinical front-lines treating trauma, brain injury, helping people adapt to life altering physical injury in both an academic hospital setting and in private practice, I saw firsthand what breaks people. I also saw what makes them come back stronger. That became the foundation of Tactical Longevity.Tactical Longevity is not therapy. It's applied psychological science engineered for high-stress, high-stakes environments. It's designed to build anti-fragile professionals who lead better, think clearer, and recover faster when the pressure is on. My background includes:- Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology, University of Kansas- Former Assistant Clinical Professor, University of Kansas Hospital Systems- Fellowship-trained in neuro-rehabilitation, brain injury, and forensic assessment- National presenter for International Association of Chief's of Police, FBI National Academy Associates, National Tactical Officers Association, and others- Developer of over 24 peer support teams across the nation, with consultation on nearly 50- Force Science Certified with specialization in Officer-Involved Shootings, Critical Incidents, and high-impact occupational injuries- Culture and organizational psychology for tactical teamsToday, I train leaders and teams across public safety, trauma medicine, and high-risk industries, delivering performance systems that reduce failure, shorten recovery, and prevent long-term psychological degradation.If your role doesn't allow for failure, burnout, or extended breaks, we should talk.Thank you for taking the time to give this podcast a listen.

Summary: In this episode of Trainers Bullpen, host Chris Butler speaks with Dr. Jennifer Prohaska from Tactical Longevity. Dr. Prohaska is a clinical psychologist specializing in law enforcement mental health. They discuss the concept of anti-fragility, the importance of resilience, and the six elements that contribute to developing an anti-fragile mindset. Dr. Prohaska emphasizes the need for proactive mental health strategies in law enforcement, focusing on self-awareness, self-regulation, mental flexibility, accurate thinking, values, and connection. The conversation also highlights the importance of ongoing training and support for officers and their families to foster a culture of wellness within agencies. This interview ought to get trainers and agency leaders thinking deeply about how to take officer wellness beyond well-meaning words and intentions into strategies that equip officers and supervisors with helpful and effective tools to build anti-fragility.Takeaways:• Anti-fragility is about thriving through adversity.• Resilience is bouncing back; anti-fragility is growing stronger.• Self-awareness is crucial for making better choices.• Mental flexibility allows for adaptability in stressful situations.• Curiosity over judgment fosters a better learning environment.• Connection with others significantly reduces PTSD risk.• Training should be ongoing, not a one-time event.• Values guide decision-making in challenging situations.• Proactive mental health strategies are essential in law enforcement.• Involving families in mental wellness is vital for overall support.

We're raising a generation that's been told to avoid pain, trust feelings, and divide the world into “us vs. them.” Pastor Ben Young tackles the epidemic of toxic fragility and offers a better path—through the story of Joseph, Romans 12, and a zero-victim mindset. If you're tired of blame, bitterness, or emotional chaos, this message will help you stand strong and live free.

Last Friday's US employment report revisions were in line with a fragile labor market narrative. The story is still “not hiring, not firing.” Falling manufacturing employment is consistent with policy uncertainty. The most troubling development on Friday was not the data, but US President Trump firing the Bureau of Labor Statistics commissioner.

Kevin and Monique confront the uncomfortable truth: much of what is sold to the black community as “protection” or “progress” is often rooted in fear — fear of independence, fear of losing government support, fear of being left behind. In this podcast, we challenge the systems, narratives, and political strategies, especially from the Democrat Party, that keep blacks mentally fragile, emotionally dependent, and economically stagnant. This isn't about partisanship — it's about mental, spiritual, and economic liberation. It's time to think freely, act boldly, and pursue real flourishing, not fear-driven survival.

There's something powerful about returning to a space that feels like home. After a brief hiatus, the Highly Melanated Podcast crew reunites with renewed energy and deeper perspectives on life, legacy, and the impact we leave behind.The episode opens with celebration as Chris (RED) shares his triumphant debut in classical theater, performing the leading role in Antigone. His cohosts beam with pride, having witnessed his command of complex language and powerful stage presence. Chris's willingness to step into character and deliver a spontaneous monologue showcases not just his artistic growth, but the evolution of someone who's found confidence in exploring new creative territories.When the conversation shifts to conspiracy theories, what begins as lighthearted banter about moon landings and aliens transforms into a thoughtful examination of information versus misinformation. This becomes particularly poignant as the hosts process the reported passing of Malcolm Jamal Warner.The heart of this episode beats strongest during reflections on mortality and purpose. Blair's perspective that "everyone is put on this earth for a reason, and when you've achieved that purpose, there's no reason to be here anymore" sits alongside PJ's observation that "how you live in life is how you're celebrated in death." These aren't just philosophical musings but invitations to consider our own legacies.What makes this episode exceptional isn't just the topics but the genuine vulnerability with which they're discussed. Through personal stories of loss and remembrance, the hosts create a space where difficult conversations feel not just possible, but necessary.Join us for this soul-stirring return episode, and perhaps take a moment afterward to ask yourself: What legacy are you creating with each day you're given?

Stanford professor and financial reform advocate Anat Admati joins Jim to unpack the growing fragility in our financial system and the dangerous myths still shaping public policy. From shadow banking and corporate debt subsidies to crypto hype and post-crisis denial, Admati pulls no punches in exposing the deep structural flaws threatening American capitalism. They discuss why financial regulations continue to fall short and what real reform would look like. Admati explains how public anger after 2008 was hijacked by dangerous narratives, why crypto's promise is largely a mirage, and how shadow banking adds new layers of systemic risk. She makes the case for genuine accountability—in both government and the private sector—and warns of the moral cost of allowing “profitable misconduct” to persist. This is a candid conversation about fragility, power, truth—and what it will take to rebuild a system that actually serves society.

Oh my goodness, I cannot begin to tell you just how special this episode was for me! Back in 2019, I actually missed an opportunity to ask Liane Moriarty a question because I was too nervous to put my hand up. Fast forward to today, and I can't quite believe I got to do a whole interview with Liane and I absolutely loved every single moment. It was a total dream come true!Liane joins me in this episode to discuss her brilliant new novel, Here One Moment. We chat all about the incredible (and, let's be honest, very unsettling!) premise of a woman giving out death predictions on a delayed flight, and where that idea came from. We then delve into our own opinions on fate, destiny, and even clairvoyants – it was all quite deep for a Monday morning! Of course, as always, we also discover the five books that have shaped Liane's life, which are:Playing Beatie Bow by Ruth ParkFeeling Sorry For Celia by Jaclyn Moriarty (currently unavailable on bookshop.org)Pennington's Seventeenth Summer by K.M.

Mar (SP/SX 7w6 794) joins us for a luminous, chaotic dive into the inner world of an SP Seven — where optimism burns like a flare, vision outpaces feasibility, and connection is often a puzzle missing key pieces. Mar touches on her social blindness — the kind that makes small talk feel like calculus and leads to well-meaning intensity that others don't always know how to receive. We explore her writing, which orbits themes of fate, finality, and surrealism — what she calls “pocket knife stories” for their compact emotional heft. This conversation also opens space for harder truths: her relationship with alcohol as both amplifier and isolator, the tension between reckless vitality and the longing for groundedness, and the ongoing work of integrating a self built on speed with one that can sit still. At the heart of it all is a question familiar to many Sevens: What does it mean to choose presence, when flight feels like freedom?

Sadhguru delves into the deepest questions of existence—death, the afterlife, and the pursuit of a meaningful life. The conversation begins by exploring how our fear of death often robs us of truly living, and how our identification with thoughts can lead to unnecessary suffering.

He discusses the ways we accumulate energy that doesn't serve us and addresses the problem of a cluttered mind.

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss the evolution of lungs and of the first breaths, which can be traced back 400 million years to when animal life spread from rock pools and swamps onto land, as some fish found an evolutionary advantage in getting their oxygen from air rather than water. Breathing with lungs may have started with fish filling their mouths with air and forcing it down into sacs in their chests, like the buccal pumping that frogs do now, and slowly their swimming muscles adapted to work their lungs like bellows. While lungs developed in different ways, there are astonishing continuities: for example, the distinct breathing system that helps tiny birds fly thousands of miles now is also the one that once allowed some dinosaurs to become huge; our hiccups are vestiges of the flight reaction in fish needing more oxygen; and we still breathe through our skins, just not enough to meet our needs.With:Steve Brusatte Professor of Palaeontology and Evolution at the University of EdinburghEmily Rayfield Professor of Palaeobiology at the University of BristolAndJonathan Codd Professor of Integrative Zoology at the University of ManchesterProducer: Simon Tillotson Reading list:Roger B.

What happens when a warrior returns home but can't find peace?Jon sits down with clinical psychologist Dr. Varpas de Sa Pereira explores the psychological challenges faced by combat veterans, with a particular focus on "Warrior Withdrawal Syndrome" - a condition distinct from but often coexisting with PTSD. Dr. de Sa Pereira delves into the complexities of transitioning from military to civilian life, highlighting how military culture shapes identity and mental health. He emphasizes the importance of purpose, the overwhelming anxiety of limitless choices in civilian life, and the need for mindfulness, self-care, and sleep. The discussion also addresses common misconceptions about veteran mental health, the essential role of family and community support, and the wide array of resources available to veterans. Throughout, Dr. de Sa Pereira offers practical strategies for healing and underscores that veterans must take an active role in their own recovery.Get Dr. Varpas de Sa Pereira's book here - https://www.amazon.com/Warrior-Withdrawal-When-Longer-Means/dp/196220250XTry NEURISH - Personalized nutrition for your mental health.

Emotional vulnerability is rare. Expectations clash. And some men just can't face reality. Welcome to The White Lotus Season 3, Episode 7, "Killer Instincts," where we unpack the deep-seated issues beneath the surface of paradise.Charles and Dan break down:Rick and Frank's Daring Deception: We delve into the "funny like kind of caper" as Rick and Frank pose as a director and producer. We discuss Frank's struggle with sobriety during the charade and Rick's "pretty smart" but "shady behavior" in orchestrating the confrontation.Timothy's Toxic Control: We explore the "erratic behavior" of Timothy and his son Saxon's fears. We discuss Timothy's belief that his work is "all I have" and his disturbing "murder suicide fantasies" stemming from a perceived family fragility.Gaitok's Dilemma with Mook: We analyze Gaitok's date with Mook and her desire for a partner with "killer instincts" who is "strong". We discuss the challenges of being a security guard who "abhors violence" and the implications for his future.Greg's Moral Quandary: We examine the suspicions around Greg's wife's death and his attempt to "brib[e] Belinda" to keep her silent. We weigh the "safest thing for Belinda to do" when faced with this ethical crossroads.Also on the table:Why the "male loneliness epidemic" is fundamentally a "resilience epidemic".The problematic "maladaptive sexual behavior" rooted in past abuse.How "rich, very soft men" struggle to "grapple with life on life's terms".The role of "grifters" in the "masculinity business" and the danger of hitching your wagon to the "wrong horse".Support the show

The United States is in the midst of a propaganda and disinformation war, fueled by plutocrats and tech moguls like Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg, who have harnessed technology for profit. Meanwhile, the American empire remains unchecked, its worst nationalist and jingoistic impulses amplified by political opportunism at the highest levels. The times demand serious, accessible intellectual work, but instead, our search for grounded perspectives is surrendered to the lazy pull of social media, leaving us unable to distinguish between deeply researched work, like James Loewen's Lies My Teacher Told Me, and polemics like Lies My Liberal Teacher Told Me. As a result, debates over issues from the origins of Hip Hop to the legacy of Jimmy Carter reflect how vulnerable our society is to cultural mythmaking disguised as truth.This obsession with simplistic narratives plays out globally, with education becoming a battleground in places like the US and Syria. Curriculum debates reveal a struggle over shaping minds and controlling knowledge—whether education serves enlightenment or power. The entire system feels as futile as ice skating uphill, an exhausting and impossible task. What does education really achieve in this context? Does it enlighten us, or complicate our understanding of a world growing more disconnected? Martin Luther King Jr.'s vision of a World House seems increasingly distant, replaced by virtual realities manipulated by forces spreading influence at any cost.Meanwhile, the existential threat of global warming is no longer abstract. Weather events, like the fires ravaging Los Angeles, serve as harsh reminders of the consequences of environmental neglect. As smoke clouds our skies, we are left to ask: How do we fight the overwhelming tide of manipulation, racism, monopoly capitalism, nationalism, and climate destruction? How do we cultivate a genuine care for our shared humanity? Without this, education, climate action, and even our most cherished ideals unravel.The real test is whether we can rise above the noise—the propaganda, ego, and division—and see each other as part of a shared human struggle. Only then can we confront the true challenges of our time—education, climate change, unchecked power—and maybe, just maybe, create a future where we are more than the sum of our divisions.JOIN KNARRATIVE: https://www.knarrative.com it's the only way to get into #Knubia, where these classes areheld live with a live chat.To shop Go to:TheGlobalMajorityMore from us:Knarrative Twitter: https://twitter.com/knarrative_Knarrative Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/knarrative/In Class with Carr Twitter: https://twitter.com/inclasswithcarrSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

"Have you ever wondered if that family relationship you've given up on could still be healed?"Dr. Joshua Coleman shares his devastating personal journey through years of separation from his daughter. His initial defensiveness and need to be right nearly destroyed their relationship permanently. "I'd like to talk about a particularly challenging case today. It's me," he told his consultant. The breakthrough came when he learned to stop explaining and start empathizing. This painful transition became his life's mission: helping families bridge seemingly impossible divides through curiosity, vulnerability, and authentic connection.Coleman reveals the critical difference between modern psychological parenting and previous generations. Today's parents face higher expectations but often lack the emotional tools their children need. "Life is much more fragile than I imagined," he reflects, describing how estrangement changes your entire worldview. His practical guidance centers on "letters of amends"—finding truth in children's complaints rather than defending against them. For adult children, he emphasizes starting with connection goals, not blame. Can broken family bonds be repaired? Coleman's work proves healing is possible when both sides choose curiosity over being right.Dr. Joshua Coleman is a psychologist in private practice in the San Francisco Bay Area and Senior Fellow with the Council on Contemporary Families. A frequent Today Show and NPR guest, he's appeared on Good Morning America, Dr. Phil, Sesame Street, and 20/20, with features in The New Yorker and TIME Magazine. He's authored four books including "Rules of Estrangement: Why Adult Children Cut Ties and How to Heal the Conflict." Coleman writes for major publications like The New York Times, The Atlantic, and The Wall Street Journal. Interestingly, he also composes music for television shows including Keeping Up With the Kardashians and Chicago Fire.About The Show: The Life in Transition, hosted by Art Blanchford focuses on making the most of the changes we're given every week. Art has been through hundreds of transitions in his life. Many have been difficult, but all have led to a depth and richness he could never have imagined. On the podcast Art explores how to create more love and joy in life, no matter what transitions we go through. Art is married to his lifelong partner, a proud father of three and a long-time adventurer and global business executive. He is the founder and leader of the Midlife Transition Mastery Community.

In "Step 88: Rorty's Solidarity," the concluding episode of our three-part series on Richard Rorty's Contingency, Irony, and Solidarity (1989), host Ryder Richards explores Part III, Chapters 7–9, where Rorty tackles cruelty and solidarity. Rorty argues that solidarity isn't a universal human essence but a contingent creation, forged through imaginative identification with others' pain via narratives like novels. We delve into vivid examples: Nabokov's Lolita and its “tingles” of aesthetic bliss, which reveal cruelty through inattention and inspire moral empathy; Orwell's 1984, where O'Brien's intelligent cruelty underscores the fragility of liberal hope; and Sellars' “we-intentions,” showing how solidarity expands “us” through shared stories, not abstract truths.Rorty's appeal lies in his witty, pragmatic blend of literary insight and moral hope, empowering us to craft kinder worlds without metaphysical crutches. Yet, Ryder remains skeptical, critiquing how Rorty's vision has materialized but been subverted in 2025. While his liberal ironist thrives in self-creation and anti-cruelty movements, mimetic identities—adopting others' vocabularies for social gain—and weaponized solidarity, where anti-cruelty fuels division, distort his utopia. This episode traces Rorty's narrative-driven philosophy from language and selfhood to community, urging listeners to question vocabularies while imagining a broader “we.” Join us for a compelling finale to this philosophical journey, available on LetUsThinkAboutIt. 0:00 Intro 2:23 Noticing Cruelty through Narrative: Nabokov 7:18 Fragility of Liberal Hope: Orwell 11:50 Creating Solidarity: Sellars 15:48 Rorty's Legacy: subversion and capture 20:28 Outro

This week, we're diving into the first of the Three Great Untruths: “What doesn't kill you makes you weaker.” Teens will learn why this belief is not only false—but actually harmful—and how believing they're fragile holds them back from growing stronger. I'll introduce the concept of being antifragile and challenge students to face discomfort head-on through a small “micro-challenge” that helps them build resilience, one rep at a time.

We actually recorded this just before we left for Egypt in March this year; it's been in the hopper for a while!
