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. Are you ready to treat self-care as your most sacred boundary?Be sure to tune in to all the episodes to receive tons of practical tips on living a more whole life and to hear even more about the points outlined above.Thank you for listening!

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.

We live in what Heath Hardesty calls the age of disintegration - a world marked by fragmentation, distraction, and disconnection. I feel that deeply. So many of us are trying to hold our lives together in a culture that constantly pulls us apart. In this conversation, Heath joins me to talk about how apprenticeship to Jesus offers another way - a way toward coherence, union, and wholeness. Heath is a pastor in the Bay Area and the author of All Things Together: How Apprenticeship to Jesus Is the Way of Flourishing in a Fragmented World. We talk about what it means to move beyond simply knowing about Jesus to actually living with Him - to abide, obey, and become people who image His love in a fractured world. We explore practices like unhurried presence and compassionate gentleness, and how they reveal a kind of power that's rooted not in control, but in love. If you've felt scattered, weary, or disoriented in your faith, this episode is an invitation to slow down, breathe, and remember that in Christ, all things hold together.Heath Hardesty is the author of All Things Together: How Apprenticeship to Jesus is the Way of Flourishing in a Fragmented World (WaterBrook; on sale 10/14/25) and he serves as the lead pastor of Valley Community Church and is the founder of Inklings Coffee & Tea in the heart of downtown Pleasanton, California. Heath grew up in a blue-collar home and was a plumber's apprentice in Colorado before becoming a pastor on the edge of Silicon Valley where he, his wife, and four kids now reside. He holds degrees in literature, leadership, biblical studies, and theology from the University of Colorado Boulder and Western Seminary in Portland.

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.

David Blyer is the Co-Founder, CEO, and President of Arreva, a leading provider of fundraising and donor relationship management software for nonprofits. With over three decades in the industry, he's passionate about helping organizations strengthen donor engagement through technology and innovation.He previously founded DonorCommunity, the first all-in-one fundraising software for nonprofits, and co-founded Arreva through a merger with Susan Packard Orr's company, Telosa. Earlier in his career, David led Vento Software, later acquired by SPSS and IBM. He also serves on NonProfit PRO's Editorial Advisory Board. Key Takeaways:Donor acquisition and retention decline not because people stop caring—but because organizations often fail to acknowledge and engage donors quickly and personally.Fragmented systems hurt relationships. When fundraising, events, and CRM data don't “talk” to each other, nonprofits lose time, insight, and donor trust.Integration and automation empower nonprofits to respond faster, personalize communication, and strengthen long-term loyalty.Timely gratitude matters: reaching out within 48–72 hours after an event or donation dramatically increases donor satisfaction and retention.Peer-to-peer fundraising, when integrated into a nonprofit's ecosystem (unlike GoFundMe), helps acquire new donors, foster engagement, and turn supporters into ambassadors.A donor-centric website and seamless online giving experience—especially mobile-friendly—serve as the foundation of modern fundraising success. "I can honestly say I'm so proud of the team that I have. I've never had the opportunity to work with a collective team like this and and be so proud of them every single day.""When you're a nonprofit, I caution you do not use GoFundMe, because I'll tell you why, what you want to have, and I go back to software you want to have a pit. I'll call it, as opposed to a GoFundMe. I look at that as what I will call the peer to peer fundraising.""But my challenge has always been and now I'm very frustrated that my last tribute gift and I just gave another one, but my last tribute gift, it's been four months. I didn't get any acknowledgement that the person I gave a tribute gift to...was acknowledged.""61% of donors worldwide prefer giving online. So if you're giving your volunteers, if you're giving your board members, maybe even your active donors, the ability to send something out online, there's a better chance of them raising more money and an easier way of doing this."- David Blyer Reach out to David Blyer at:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/arreva/Website (Company): https://www.arreva.com/   Let's Work Together to Amplify Your Leadership + Influence1.

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

In this episode of Crazy Wisdom, host Stewart Alsop talks with Jared Zoneraich, CEO and co-founder of PromptLayer, about how AI is reshaping the craft of software building. The conversation covers PromptLayer's role as an AI engineering workbench, the evolving art of prompting and evals, the tension between implicit and explicit knowledge, and how probabilistic systems are changing what it means to “code.” Stewart and Jared also explore vibe coding, AI reasoning, the black-box nature of large models, and what accelerationism means in today's fast-moving AI culture. You can find Jared on X @imjaredz and learn more or sign up for PromptLayer at PromptLayer.com.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps00:00 – Stewart Alsop opens with Jared Zoneraich, who explains PromptLayer as an AI engineering workbench and discusses reasoning, prompting, and Codex.05:00 – They explore implicit vs. explicit knowledge, how subject matter experts shape prompts, and why evals matter for scaling AI workflows.10:00 – Jared explains eval methodologies, backtesting, hallucination checks, and the difference between rigorous testing and iterative sprint-based prompting.15:00 – Discussion turns to observability, debugging, and the shift from deterministic to probabilistic systems, highlighting skill issues in prompting.20:00 – Jared introduces “LM idioms,” vibe coding, and context versus content—how syntax, tone, and vibe shape AI reasoning.25:00 – They dive into vibe coding as a company practice, cloud code automation, and prompt versioning for building scalable AI infrastructure.30:00 – Stewart reflects on coding through meditation, architecture planning, and how tools like Cursor and Claude Code are shaping AGI development.35:00 – Conversation expands into AI's cultural effects, optimism versus doom, and critical thinking in the age of AI companions.40:00 – They discuss philosophy, history, social fragmentation, and the possible decline of social media and liberal democracy.45:00 – Jared predicts a fragmented but resilient future shaped by agents and decentralized media.50:00 – Closing thoughts on AI-driven markets, polytheistic model ecosystems, and where innovation will thrive next.Key InsightsPromptLayer as AI Infrastructure – Jared Zoneraich presents PromptLayer as an AI engineering workbench—a platform designed for builders, not researchers. It provides tools for prompt versioning, evaluation, and observability so that teams can treat AI workflows with the same rigor as traditional software engineering while keeping flexibility for creative, probabilistic systems.Implicit vs. Explicit Knowledge – The conversation highlights a critical divide between what AI can learn (explicit knowledge) and what remains uniquely human (implicit understanding or “taste”). Jared explains that subject matter experts act as the bridge, embedding human nuance into prompts and workflows that LLMs alone can't replicate.Evals and Backtesting – Rigorous evaluation is essential for maintaining AI product quality. Jared explains that evals serve as sanity checks and regression tests, ensuring that new prompts don't degrade performance. He describes two modes of testing: formal, repeatable evals and more experimental sprint-based iterations used to solve specific production issues.Deterministic vs. Probabilistic Thinking – Jared contrasts the old, deterministic world of coding—predictable input-output logic—with the new probabilistic world of LLMs, where results vary and control lies in testing inputs rather than debugging outputs. This shift demands a new mindset: builders must embrace uncertainty instead of trying to eliminate it.The Rise of Vibe Coding – Stewart and Jared explore vibe coding as a cultural and practical movement. It emphasizes creativity, intuition, and context-awareness over strict syntax. Tools like Claude Code, Codex, and Cursor let engineers and non-engineers alike “feel” their way through building, merging programming with design thinking.AI Culture and Human Adaptation – Jared predicts that AI will both empower and endanger human cognition. He warns of overreliance on LLMs for decision-making and the coming wave of “AI psychosis,” yet remains optimistic that humans will adapt, using AI to amplify rather than atrophy critical thinking.A Fragmented but Resilient Future – The episode closes with reflections on the social and political consequences of AI. Jared foresees the decline of centralized social media and the rise of fragmented digital cultures mediated by agents. Despite risks of isolation, he remains confident that optimism, adaptability, and pluralism will define the next AI era.

Sunday 5th October 2025 - North Site and Central PMSpeaker - James RankineJames kicks off our new series entitled "Life Together", explaining how participating in community is part of the Lord's plan for His Church.____________Ephesians 2 v 18-22 (NIV)18) For through him we both have access to the Father by one Spirit. 19) Consequently, you are no longer foreigners and strangers, but fellow citizens with God's people and also members of his household, 20) built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, with Christ Jesus himself as the chief cornerstone. 21) In him the whole building is joined together and rises to become a holy temple in the Lord. 22) And in him you too are being built together to become a dwelling in which God lives by his Spirit.Ephesians 2 v 18-22 (The Message)Christ brought us together through his death on the cross. The Cross got us to embrace, and that was the end of the hostility. Christ came and preached peace to you outsiders and peace to us insiders. He treated us as equals, and so made us equals. Through him we both share the same Spirit and have equal access to the Father. That's plain enough, isn't it? You're no longer wandering exiles. This kingdom of faith is now your home country. You're no longer strangers or outsiders. You belong here, with as much right to the name Christian as anyone. God is building a home. He's using us all—irrespective of how we got here—in what he is building. He used the apostles and prophets for the foundation. Now he's using you, fitting you in brick by brick, stone by stone, with Christ Jesus as the cornerstone that holds all the parts together. We see it taking shape day after day—a holy temple built by God, all of us built into it, a temple in which God is quite at home.____________Recorded at North Site - 05Oct2025

This week's guest on The Publisher Podcast is Mel McVeigh, Head of Digital at the Professional Publisher's Association (PPA). Mel has been at the PPA for the last 18 months, and her role is to support digital thinking within the organisation and its members. Mel recently worked with Enders Analysis on a report - Consumers, creators, and brands: Rewriting the media playbook. The report aims to help publishers with their plans around technology investments, as well as provoke and challenge them to think about how they're going to innovate in the long-term. Peter and Mel talk about the challenges technology brings and whether the website is really dying, but also the reasons to be cheerful, like the sustained trust enjoyed by magazine brands. She talks about platforms, processes, and product thinking, as well as the importance of editorial intuition.

So if you've ever hesitated to apply for something because you didn't tick every single box, or if you worry that you're “too much,” this episode is for you. This week, on episode 324 of the Fragmented to Whole Podcast, I'm talking about why experience matters more than credentials (and how to own yours)!In this episode of the Fragmented to Whole Podcast, I'm sharing how perfectionism and self-doubt can hold you back from pursuing opportunities and how to identify and leverage your own patterns, both positive and negative, to build a more authentic and fulfilling professional identity. Your patterns tell the truth about who you are.

Climate Week NYC 2025 is under way, and we're kicking off our special podcast coverage speaking to Peter Bakker, CEO of the World Business Council for Sustainable Development.   WBCSD is a global network of more than 250 companies focused on integrating climate, nature and equity action into corporate strategies, operating plans and decision-making. WBCSD is celebrating its 30th anniversary at Climate Week NYC in 2025, at a time when many US companies are reevaluating their approach to sustainability. "Clearly in North America at the moment, the conversation has to be an economic conversation: What is the business case? Why do investments in this space make sense?" Peter says.   These discussions very look different in other parts of the world, and Peter says the upcoming UN Climate Change Conference of the Parties known as COP30 will be the "true test" of whether multilateralism can help advance global climate solutions, or whether the world takes an increasingly fragmented, regional approach.   Regardless, he says corporate boards need to understand the physical risks in their supply chains and pursue both adaptation and mitigation strategies.   "This is not a midcentury issue — this is in the next five to 10 years," Peter says. "That will lead to much more focus on resilience and adaptation. However, the reality is there is no adaptation plan for a 3-degree world ... That means it remains of the highest priority to continue to put pressure on emission reductions."  We'll be back with podcast interviews from Climate Week NYC throughout the week — including our coverage from The Nest Climate Campus, where the All Things Sustainable podcast is an official media partner.

Virtual power plants currently operate in fragmented systems that limit distributed energy resource participation, with less than 20% of capacity enrolled. Rising energy demand from industrial expansion, AI data centers, and transportation electrification is driving the need for technology-agnostic VPPs that can integrate diverse devices and brands. Industry groups are developing open standards to support interoperability, while regional regulations and business strategies influence adoption rates. Utilities are advised to build partnerships, invest in foundational systems, and leverage both single-technology and tech-agnostic VPPs as the market evolves. Policy decisions and economic incentives will impact the pace and scale of VPP integration.Learn more on this news by visiting us at: https://greyjournal.net/news/ Hosted on Acast.

Interview with Shawn Khunkhun, CEO of Dolly Varden Silver CorporationOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/dolly-varden-silver-tsxvdv-targets-top-10-global-producer-status-7537Recording date: 12th September 2025Dolly Varden Silver Corporation has emerged as a compelling consolidation story in the precious metals sector, delivering exceptional returns while positioning for significant growth in an improving silver market. Under CEO Shawn Khunkhun's leadership since February 2020, the company has systematically transformed from a $20 million market cap explorer into a $550 million silver platform, generating 650% share price appreciation for shareholders.The company's strategic approach centers on consolidating high-grade silver assets in British Columbia's Golden Triangle, accumulating five past-producing mines through methodical acquisitions. Khunkhun's contrarian timing proved prescient, entering the market when $16 silver prices provided minimal exploration incentives for major producers. "We've raised $150 million, and the idea has been, let's create an instrument where investors could get exposure to silver," he explained, describing the systematic vehicle construction.Technical fundamentals support the growth trajectory. The company's assets demonstrate exceptional metallurgy with 88% silver recovery rates, backed by 196,000 meters of drilling and strong community support in a region seeking economic development. A robust $40 million treasury provides flexibility for both organic growth through a 55,000-meter drill program and strategic acquisitions.The institutional investor base reflects confidence in management execution, with 50% institutional ownership including Fidelity, US Global, and Eric Sprott's 10% stake. The April 2025 US listing delivered an immediate 38% share price bump, enhancing access to American capital markets.With only ten primary silver producers globally, Khunkhun sees a clear path to becoming "the 11th" through continued consolidation. Management targets ambitious but achievable goals: $2 billion market cap, 400% share price appreciation, and production status within 18 months. As silver trades at $42 per ounce and generalist investors increase precious metals allocations, Dolly Varden appears positioned to capitalize on both sector rotation and metal price appreciation.Learn more: http://cruxinvestor.com/companies/dolly-varden-silverSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

The #1 podcast in AEC.In this episode, KP Reddy and Nick Durham unpack why defensibility today looks less like patents and more like paradoxical thinking, and why the smartest move for AI “wrappers” is to act like a services firm that sells results, not features.5 Big IdeasWrappers = Services Business: If you're building an LLM wrapper, stop pitching IP. Sell industry outcomes, deliver faster/cheaper with your toolset, and price like pros.Moat = Paradoxical Thinking: Your edge isn't secret code. It's a founder's contrarian judgment and speed. Nobody can clone that.Guard Your Info Rights: Corporates as investors? Kill board seats/observers and information rights. Money is cheap; data is priceless.Monopoly Myths in AEC: Software can show power-law effects; services don't. Fragmented, regulated markets blunt “winner-take-all” dreams.Franchise the Customer: Wild model: sell market exclusivity to be your customer, capture scarcity up front while keeping product margins. If this made you rethink your go-to-market, hit follow and send this to the one founder who needs tougher advice.Follow on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/Sounds like you?

He'll explain how Canada's medical record system ended up like this and what Canada could gain from adopting an interconnected system.This episode originally aired April 15, 2025.Questions? Comments?

Send us a textThe reason we have rules of the road is because they're social boundaries. They exist to prevent harm, to reduce accidents and to create flow.  When everyone keeps the focus on themselves, staying in their lane, following the rules, respecting others, boundaries, things run much more smoothly. These rules translate very well to social and emotional boundaries.
