The Arduous Southern Tour and Charleston's Splendor — Nathaniel Philbrick — In 1791, Washington undertook a grueling three-month, 2,000-mile tour of the American South over "impassable" roads designed to unite the fragmented southern states with the federal government. This journey into "terra incognita" required construction of a custom carriage and immense logistical coordination involving supplies, security, and official ceremonies. In Charleston, Washingtonwas welcomed with extraordinary luxury built entirely upon the institution of slavery and enslaved labor. Philbrickinterweaves his personal research methodology, describing the role of librarians in historical investigation, and recounts climbing the spire of St. Michael's Church. Standing 186 feet in the air where Washington historically stood created a "historical vortex," dramatically bridging the temporal gap between the eighteenth century and contemporary historical consciousness. 1755
Send us a textIn this week's episode of the Fragmented to Whole Podcast, I'm talking with my long-time recovery friend, Renee N., and her story is absolutely incredible. She grew up in chaos — emotional abuse, addiction, violence, and zero safety — and spent decades dissociated and trying to survive.Recovery changed everything.Renee shares how reading the 14 Traits of an adult child made her feel seen for the first time, how meetings and therapy helped her start telling the truth, and how she slowly found enough internal safety to live in her authentic identity. We talk about people-pleasing, overworking, childhood roles, and the shock of finally experiencing serenity when you've lived your whole life in chaos.Now she's present. She's grounded. She's no longer apologizing her way through the day. And she's living a life she truly never thought was possible as a transgener woman.This conversation is full of honesty, hope, and the kind of transformation that only happens when you stop surviving and start healing.Be sure to tune in to all the episodes to receive practical tools for living a more whole life and to hear even more about the points outlined above.Thank you for listening!

Susan Grant, Chief Clinical Officer at symplr, reviews findings from their annual Compass Survey, which revealed the significant challenges hospitals face, driven by financial pressures, clinician burnout, and operational inefficiencies. Fragmented technology systems create significant administrative burdens, and there is growing recognition that unifying healthcare operations and strategically implementing AI are crucial to streamlining workflows. Clinicians' involvement in the design and implementation of new processes and procedures is essential to ensure that patients' real-world needs are properly addressed. Susan explains, "The annual Compass Survey, is actually our fourth survey that we've done here at symplr, and the goal of the survey is to drive awareness around the need for and benefits of streamlining healthcare operations software. So it's a way to get feedback from our customers, clients, and leaders out in the healthcare world." "I've been a Chief Nurse for the last 30 years in different health systems around the country, and we do tend to be a very reactive industry. However, I think it's built and intensified over the last few years because of issues we're seeing that have also intensified, including finances, workplace violence, clinician burnout, and cybersecurity. Those are some of the top issues our healthcare systems are dealing with. So I think that the reactivity of trying to really deal with those various issues has intensified and created this reactivity." #symplr #CompassSurvey #HealthcareIT #HealthcareOperations #symplrOperationsPlatform #HealthcareAI symplr.com Download the transcript here

2/3. The Civic Communion Debate — Gaius observes that despite ceremonial declarations of national strength, the United States remains profoundly fragmented domestically. Germanicus presents French philosophical recommendations for "Civic Communion," emphasizing shared, major institutions—Religion, Military, Education, Healthcare—where citizens belong to each other transcending immutable background characteristics. Germanicushighlights that the US prioritizes enshrining individual rights and liberty but neglects fraternity, the concept providing implicit kinship and reciprocal obligation among citizens. Gaius articulates French exceptionalism, which embraces those joining the French civilizational sphere; the French concept of laïcité requires that kinship to France supersede sectarian and identitarian attachments. Germanicus emphasizes that the US has failed to cultivate the idea of constituting a "people" and lacks emotional bonds necessary for sustained national unity. Gaius notes this fragmentation was temporarily healed during the World Wars but is now fully developed, resembling divisions of the 1840s-1850s. Germanicus describes contemporary American society as characterized by "bile and rancor," where citizens are rewarded for denouncing American institutions, rendering reestablishment of "imagined kinship" extraordinarily difficult and requiring fundamental reconceptualization of national identity and shared purpose. 1908 FRENCH GRAND PRIX

In this episode of Explaining History, Nick takes a hard look at the state of the British Left in late 2025. With the Starmer government firmly entrenched in "continuity Thatcherism," the opposition has splintered. We analyze the chaotic founding conference of the new left-wing coalition, "Your Party," led by Jeremy Corbyn and Zarah Sultana.From walkouts and factional disputes to the return of the "spectre of entryism" by the Socialist Workers Party (SWP), we explore why the Left seems addicted to infighting at the moments it is needed most. Is the new Green Party under Zack Polanski the only viable home for progressives, or can the new Independent alliance survive its own birth?Key Topics:The Post-2024 Landscape: How Labour abandoned the Left.The "Your Party" Crisis: Inside the chaotic first conference and Zarah Sultana's walkout.The Return of Entryism: How the SWP and open membership could kill the new party.Green Shoots: The rise of Zack Polanski's Green Party as a serious socialist alternativeExplaining History helps you understand the 20th Century through critical conversations and expert interviews.

Money Travels Podcast Season 3, Episode 12For migrant workers sending remittances back home, cross-border payments can be slow, complex and expensive. It was this challenge Ambar Sur set out to solve when he left his telecom background and co-founded Terrapay in 2014.

Sex as the Theater of Trauma, the Refuge of the Fragmented, and the Doorway to the Self We Fear to Meet. Krishnamurti said the human mind is endlessly escaping itself through entertainment, through belief, through identity, through addiction and sex is the most socially acceptable escape of all. Not because sex is wrong.

UK wealth and capital markets are a significant niche on the global stage, and opportunity abounds. Fragmented investment offerings, extreme valuation opportunities in the small cap space, and over £5tn of intergenerational wealth transfers, estimated to occur over the next 20 years. It all adds up to an intriguing cocktail of opportunity for those willing to build & acquire. In this Curated Channel episode, we aim to understand how Oberon Investments is positioning themselves to capitalise on some of these trends. In a different format, we have 3 legs to the conversations. First, CEO Simon McGivern sets the stage in explaining the genesis and vision of Oberon. Why is the opportunity so compelling? Who are the backers? Why are they aiming to offer an alternative to the larger, consolidated businesses? Next, Richard Penny, a highly regarded veteran of the small-cap space, explains why he believes the UK offers some of the most compelling investment opportunities he can remember in his career. Finally, senior portfolio managers Peter Martin and Toby Clothier explain the investment approach, the opportunities they see, and why they don't fit in with the more typical approach found in this space.

It proposes that the human psyche functions as a holographic microcosm of the cosmos—each person a localized expression of the same fundamental awareness that animates all existence. Just as every fragment of a hologram contains the pattern of the whole image, each human being carries the complete blueprint of wholeness within them, even when trauma, conditioning, or egoic distortion obscures that pattern. From this perspective, psychological fragmentation—the unhealed wounds, dissociated memories, and defensive identities we carry—is not a permanent flaw but a phase distortion within the holographic field of consciousness. These distortions create what appear to be isolated “pocket realities” or wound-based worlds: self-reinforcing loops of perception where the nervous system, seeking safety, limits awareness to familiar pain.
The benefits market is flooded with solutions that promise innovation but deliver total chaos. They're built on "razor-thin margins" to chase top-line revenue, and the service inevitably collapses, leaving you, the broker, to clean up the mess and take the blame. It's a broken model that ruins your reputation.But what if you could offer a plan with the stability of a BUCA, the innovation of a tech company, and get a quote in 48 hours? My guest, Caleb Parker of Angle Health, joins me on The Broker's Voice to share his framework. We get into why Angle is built on an "AI-native" chassis to deliver precision underwriting, how they avoid the margin trap that kills other solutions, and why they can deliver a Jan 1st quote on Jan 10th. This is the game plan for finally having a stable, scalable alternative.▶▶ Sign Up For Your Free Discovery Callhttps://calendly.com/aneary/strategy-sessionCONNECT WITH ANDY NEARY
UNIFIL's Failure, Hezbollah's Rebuilding, and Syria's Fragmented Future. Edmund Fitton-Brown, Ahmad Sharawi, and Bill Roggio label the UN Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) a "spectacular failure" that allowed Hezbollah's military buildup near the Israeli border. Despite the ceasefire terms requiring demilitarization south of the Litani River, the Lebanese government is stalling. Hezbollah is actively rebuilding its infrastructure, forcing Israel to conduct targeted enforcement actions. They also discuss Syrian President Ahmad al-Sharaa, who is seeking international legitimacy, sanctions relief, and partners to counter ISIS, even as his state remains domestically fragmented by regional demands for separation or autonomy. 1895 BEIRUT

Send us a textSelf-care is the very first personal boundary. It's the essential line between you and burnout, between you and your old perfectionism, and between you and the belief that your self-worth depends on what you produce. Many of us intellectually understand the need for self-care, but when we see it as a non-negotiable boundary, the entire game changes. In this week's episode 326 of the Fragmented to Whole Podcast, I'm sharing jaw-dropping transformation stories from clients and revealing why self-care is the hardest, yet most sacred, boundary to set.Some of the talking points I go over in this episode include:Why self-care is the most difficult boundary, especially for those prone to perfectionism and over-functioning.How simple shifts in self-care (like taking a full lunch break or not working weekends) create massive emotional change.Real-life stories of mothers who finally stopped enabling their adult sons by setting hard financial and physical boundaries.The ripple effect of new boundaries, leading to grounded conversations and a renewed commitment to personal truth in marriage and family.The central thread: Boundaries are about creating emotional safety inside yourself, not about control or punishment of others.You don't have to stay stuck in the cycle of fixing, rescuing, and over-functioning. The moment you learn to take care of yourself first, you show up from peace, not panic, and everything else begins to align.

Send me a DM here (it doesn't let me respond), OR email me: imagineabetterworld2020@gmail.comToday I'm honored to have back on the show for a third time: Satanic and Masonic Ritual Abuse, mind control and organized abuse survivor, overcomer, and whistleblower, writer and author, content creator, loving mother and grandmother, spiritual warfare and deliverance warrior, selfless servant of God, and my dear, sweet friend, StacyA little bit about Stacy if you're new here or missed her previous episodes on ‘The Imagination' and a sneak peek of what we will be talking about today:From the tender age of two, Stacy's life was forged in the crucible of unimaginable pain, born into a multigenerational lineage of ritual abuse. Raised in a chaotic world shaped by a dissociative mother and an alcoholic father, her childhood was tethered with torment. After her parents' divorce, her mother's remarriage to a Freemason thrust Stacy deeper into a nightmare of violation - at home, in Freemason lodges, at Bohemian Grove, and even the mayor's residence, where councilmen and others preyed upon her and other children. For decades, the truth of her past lay buried, only to resurface in her 40s, shattering the illusion of the life she thought she knew. Fragmented memories revealed chilling horrors: satanic rituals, curses binding her soul, a forced “marriage” to Satan, and a scapegoat ritual that forced her to carry the sins of her abusers.Yet Stacy's story is not one of defeat - it's a testament to her unyielding courage and radiant spirit. Refusing to be defined by the dark strongholds that once gripped her, she embarked on a transformative journey of deliverance and spiritual warfare. This fierce passion became her lifeline, guiding her through the agony of remembering and into a powerful path of healing. Leaving behind the confines of a 9-to-5 life, Stacy now dedicates herself to guiding fellow survivors, helping them break free from spiritual chains and find liberation from bondage.Her previous episodes captivated listeners with her raw, powerful testimony of surviving profound trauma and her extraordinary walk with God, whose grace restored her soul. Today, Stacy is back to dive into urgent topics - AI, soul trading, nanotechnology, secrets lurking underground, cancer, and more - igniting vital conversations with her unshakable faith and relentless drive to set others free. Stacy's journey is a blazing testament to the power of resilience and redemption - she is living proof that even the deepest wounds can become wellsprings of purpose. With every step, she transforms pain into power, guiding others out of darkness with her radiant light. Her unwavering commitment to truth and healing inspires us all to rise above our past, embrace hope, and fight for a world where every soul can be free. Stacy is not just a survivor - she is a warrior, a beacon, and a catalyst for change, reminding us that no darkness is too great for the light of courage and faith to overcome.CONNECT WITH STACY: YouTube: @SlayallDayDeliveranceMinistry - https://www.youtube.com/@SlayallDayDeliveranceMinistryEmail: wehaveauthorityoverdemons@gmail.comCONNECT WITH EMMA / THE IMAGINATION: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@imaginationpodcastofficialRumble: https://rumble.com/c/TheImaginationPodcastEMAIL: imagineabetterworld2020@gmail.com OR standbysurvivors@protonmail.comMy Substack: https://emmakatherine.substack.com/BUY ME A COFFEE: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/theimaginationAll links: https://direct.me/theimaginationpodcastSupport the show
Living in historical times means truly seeing those who change the world for the better. The Trump approach is finding real solutions. He's sitting on the big chair and that is important. This peace was forged in daylight with real transparency. No secret channels or hidden clauses. Honesty generates trust. Commercial diplomacy and parallel reconstruction are tools. The British Colonialists were there at the start, intervening, interjecting and demanding. Talking facts and proof, without bias, is a rare thing. You will never love each other, but you must live together in peace. Belt And Road framework, with interdependancies, is proving to be a model for others. Capitalizing on turmoil for business and profit. Systems were built to preserve leverage. Fragmented opposition and natural resources are a perfect combination. Elusive borders were part of Middle East history. England decided to put the Jews there. Back then, it was anti-Zionism. They were pawns used to get a foot in the door. It's been happening under our nose. Imperialism hasn't died yet, but President Trump is killing it.People can no longer see the obvious. Get ready because it's about to go down hard core. Now is the time to check your courage level, and top it off as needed.
There should be no contradiction in pursuing hard sciences, humanities, and moral virtue all in one day. For upper schoolers switching classrooms every hour, or for teachers siloed in a single subject, it can be easy to mistake “education” for a series of distinct academic categories. In this rebroadcast from 2015, Upper School Head Michael Moynihan gives us a better framework. He urges us to look at how our school's different departments present a unified and infinitively connective worldview—one that invites inquisitive engagement and exercises the full scope of human reason.

PREVIEW: The Syrian Quandary: Clashes Threaten Security Gap and ISIS Reemergence GUEST NAME: Ahmad Sharawi (Foundation for Defense of Democracies) 100-WORD SUMMARY: Ahmad Sharawi discusses the fragmented Syrian quandary, which faces threats, chiefly from the Islamic State (ISIS). Recent clashes occurred between the Syrian government and the U.S.-allied, Kurdish-led SDF, which controls about 30% of northeast Syria. Although there are positive signs for the SDF to integrate into the Syrian military, a war between the forces (potentially involving Turkey) could create a security gap or power vacuum. This vacuum would lead to the release and regrouping of Islamic State terrorists from existing camps and prisons, causing a reemergence of ISIS that threatens the whole region.
Send us a textThe bulldozer cycle, in relation to people pleasing, is the concept of feeling perpetually flattened by the demands and needs of others, trapped in a hidden cycle that leads to burnout and frustration. I'll be the first to admit that setting healthy boundaries that lead to healing is hard but choosing to stay stuck in the never-ending cycle is harder. You've got to pick your poison. In this week's episode 325 of the Fragmented to Whole Podcast, I'm teaching you how to go from flattened to free, escaping the bulldozer cycle. Some of the talking points I go over in this episode include:The meaning of the “bulldozer cycle” and how it affects relationships.The difference between being bulldozed and being a bulldozer (even in subtle ways).The importance of self-awareness and responsibility in breaking unhealthy patterns.Practical steps for setting boundaries and regulating your nervous system.Inspirational questions to reflect on your own patterns of being bulldozed or bulldozing others.You don't have to stay flattened or bulldoze others to feel safe.

Colonel Jeff McCausland analyzes the Gaza deal's sticking points: returning all hostages (due to fragmented control and deceased status) and Hamas surrendering weapons (their final leverage). The discussion moves to Venezuela, where a large US naval force suggests destabilization efforts against the Maduro regime, rather than merely counter-narcotics. McCausland then discusses Russian drone provocations across Europe, noting the European collective defense meeting in Copenhagen and the significant escalatory potential of providing Ukraine with long-range Tomahawk missiles. 1915 GAZA

Preview: Kevin Frazier discusses the extreme vulnerability and fragmented state of undersea cables, the vast majority of which are privately owned. The Department of Defense relies on these systems, which lack sufficient protection due to high costs. Frazier highlights recent reports that the Russian ship Yantar, under GRU possession, is tracking and mapping these vital cables near Great Britain in the event of conflict.
