Conflict TV produced in Philipstown "Conflict is inevitable, but combat is a choice." That's the message the Dispute Resolution Center, which serves four counties, including Putnam, wants to convey to residents of the Highlands through a new, locally produced television series, Conflict TV. The nonprofit provides mediation services, usually at no cost, to help those dealing with strife, from divorce or separation to disputes between landlords and tenants, co-workers, classmates, family members or neighbors. Conflict TV's first two, 28-minute episodes are posted at youtube.com/@ConflictTV and will be shown on cable Channel 22 in Philipstown and Channel 21 in Beacon. Juan Carlos Salcedo, president of the DRC board, is the senior producer. The show is hosted by James Rollins, the founder and senior pastor of The Tabernacle Church in Middletown, who has been a mediator for 16 years. Each episode features guests who share practical mediation techniques and case studies. "We showcase real-life stories, demonstrating how dialogue can lead to meaningful, lasting transformation," said Salcedo. He produces the series in his Philipstown studio, where he also hosts The DNA of the News, which is broadcast to Spanish-speaking countries. "Our target audience is intentionally broad because conflict touches every stage of life, from teenagers to senior citizens," Salcedo said of Conflict TV. Miriam Frankl, the DRC executive director, says that even when parties can't reach an agreement through mediation, "they often report reduced tension and greater understanding of the issues. And judges see less contention in cases that go to trial." Mediators come from a variety of backgrounds, including law, social work, education and human resources. "There are no background or career requirements to be an effective mediator," she said. "One of our mediators is a former postal worker." Last year, the DRC helped 1,700 residents of Putnam, Orange, Ulster and Sullivan counties mediate conflicts. The nonprofit is funded largely by the New York state court system and is part of a network created in 1981 that covers the entire state. Services are free except for divorce mediation and some large-group facilitations. The DRC that serves Putnam and the three other counties has 35 volunteer mediators who received months of training, Frankl said. The Dispute Resolution Center has an office in Carmel. For more information, see drcservices.org or call 845-372-8771. In Beacon, mediation is provided by the Mediation Center of Dutchess County (dutchessmediation.org).
Alvarez & Marsal managing directors Annie Peabody and Jay Frankl discussed rising M&A activism, portfolio reviews and shareholder vulnerability.
After a break with family and a slower pace of life, Josh returns with some existential questions, one in particular that's been sitting heavy: Am I conforming to what everyone else around me is doing, or am I "appointing" my time well with the people who need me most? Drawing from Isaiah 43, Psalm 90, and Viktor Frankl's Man's Search for Meaning, Josh walks through what it looks like to grieve the past well, release the assignments of old, and step fully into the season God has for your family right now. He further unpacks how sweetening retrospect—or nostalgically living in the past—can breed depression, how anxiety about the future keeps us from the present, and why the mundane drive-time moments are shaping the hearts of your children more than you realize. A practical, honest reset if you're catching yourself distracted or not as intentional as you wish you might be. ** Thank you to Bernhardt Watches for sponsoring this episode!

https://media.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/media.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/ins.blubrry.com/thesuccessfulmindpodcast/TSM727_MDM_May16_26.mp3 Hope is not a strategy — and I think most people know this somewhere deep down, but they’ve never stopped to examine what it’s actually costing them. In this episode, I use the extraordinary true story of Ernest Shackleton’s 1915 Antarctic expedition to show exactly what it looks like when a leader refuses to let hope become the plan — and what happens instead.Hope Is Not a Strategy: The Lesson Shackleton Already KnewWhen Shackleton’s ship, The Endurance, became locked in Antarctic ice in 1915, there was no rescue coming. No technology. No timeline. What he understood — and what Viktor Frankl later documented in Man’s Search for Meaning — is that people who attach their emotional survival to a hoped-for outcome are the most fragile people in the room. Frankl could identify the prisoners who would die first in the concentration camps. They were the ones who had pinned everything to a specific date — Christmas, a promised release. When that date passed, they fell apart. So did Shackleton’s carpenter, who began to spread dissent among the crew. Shackleton stopped it immediately. He understood that one person’s emotional collapse, if left unchecked, could kill everyone. The lesson isn’t that hope is bad. It’s that hope as your primary psychological strategy is dangerous. It keeps you on the edge of fear — one disappointment away from crashing. Hope Is Not a Strategy — Present-Moment Living IsWhat Shackleton’s crew did instead is something I’ve watched the most successful people I’ve ever coached do in their own lives. They didn’t just survive Antarctica — they lived there. They played football on the ice. They put on theatrical performances. They took care of their sled dogs. They chose to make the experience of being where they were as full and human as possible, while using the goal of getting home as direction — not salvation. I see this same pattern play out for entrepreneurs and business owners every week. When a sale falls through, when the numbers don’t match the picture in your head, when you get a bad review or a rejection — the people relying on hope crash. The people living fully in the moment, with understanding and awareness instead of hope, stay stable. That stability is what keeps your frequency aligned with what you’re building. When your emotions drop, your vibration drops, and you begin attracting more of what you don’t want. What Disappointment Is Really Telling YouDisappointment is a hidden expectation. Every time you feel it, it’s a signal that somewhere underneath, you were relying on a specific outcome to be okay. That’s hope doing its quiet damage. The shift I’m teaching here is from hope to understanding — from ‘I’m surviving until things change’ to ‘I’m fully alive in what is, while moving toward what’s next.’ Your goal gives you direction. But who you become in the journey is the whole point. If you’ve been riding the emotional highs and lows of your business or your life — this episode is the conversation that reorients everything.

The Cutting Edge Japan Business Show By Dale Carnegie Training Tokyo, Japan
We cannot stop the mind from travelling backwards into memory or forwards into imagination. That is part of being human. The real issue is not remembering the past or preparing for the future. The real issue is the worry we attach to both. How can we stop worry from taking over our thinking? We do not need to stop remembering the past or thinking about the future; we need to strip out the worry attached to both. Memory and forecasting are survival mechanisms, because they help us learn from yesterday and prepare for tomorrow. The trouble starts when recollection becomes rumination and preparation becomes anxiety. In business, leadership, sales, education, and personal life, this pattern is familiar. We replay a painful meeting, a failed presentation, a lost opportunity, or an unfair comment. Then we imagine tomorrow going even worse. That mental habit drains energy from the one place where we can actually act: today. Mini-summary / Do now: Recall and prepare, but remove the worry flavouring. Treat worry as the optional extra, not the main meal. Why do William James and Victor Frankl matter to mental freedom? William James and Victor Frankl both point to the same powerful truth: we can choose our attitude, even when we cannot choose every circumstance. James reached this through psychology and philosophy; Frankl reached it through suffering and survival. William James, the Harvard academic often called the father of American psychology, argued that human beings can alter their lives by altering their attitudes of mind. Victor Frankl, the Holocaust survivor and author of Man's Search For Meaning, found that the last human freedom is the ability to choose one's attitude in any given circumstances. Different men, different eras, different experiences — yet the conclusion overlaps beautifully. We may not control everything that happens, but we can work on how we think about it. Mini-summary / Do now: Stop treating attitude as decoration. It is a core operating system for how we live and lead. Why do painful memories keep replaying in our minds? Painful memories replay because the brain wants to protect us from repeating mistakes, but protection turns into punishment when we keep attaching worry to the memory. That old mental movie can run for years if we keep pressing play. We remember humiliation, insult, degradation, or unfairness because the mind flags those moments as important. It says, "Watch out, this hurt you before." That may help us learn, but it can also trap us. The article's practical advice is not to deny the memory. We observe it, acknowledge that it happened, and tell ourselves we are not going back there. This resembles meditation: notice the breath, notice the thought, but do not attach yourself to it. Mini-summary / Do now: Let the memory appear, but do not let it become your identity. Notice it, learn from it, and move your mind elsewhere. How can we prepare for the future without becoming negative? Future thinking helps when it prepares us, but hurts when it becomes doom and gloom dressed up as planning. The goal is not to ignore the future; the goal is to stop inviting disaster into today. The mind imagines what could go wrong because it wants us to be ready. That is useful in leadership, sales, crisis management, public speaking, and family life. The problem begins when imagination disables optimism. We attack our own confidence before the event has even arrived. The better approach is to ask, "What is the worst that can happen?" Then mentally accept that possibility and immediately ask, "How can I improve on the worst?" That turns fear into preparation and paralysis into action. Mini-summary / Do now: Visualise the possible problem, then plan many ways to defeat it. Make the brain a solution factory, not a fear factory. What does living in "day tight" compartments really mean? Living in "day tight" compartments means protecting today from yesterday's pain and tomorrow's imagined disasters. It is a Dale Carnegie stress management principle that keeps attention on the only day where action is possible. Think of each day as an air-tight container. Yesterday cannot be changed, and tomorrow has not arrived. We still learn from the past and prepare for the future, but we do not let their worry components invade today. This is especially relevant for executives, managers, salespeople, educators, and professionals in high-pressure environments. If today is full of yesterday's resentment and tomorrow's fear, there is no mental room left for clear decisions, useful conversations, or effective action. Mini-summary / Do now: Seal today. Learn from the past, prepare for the future, but do today's work with today's energy. Where is real freedom located? Real freedom sits in our ability to decide how much worry we attach to memory and foreboding. We may not stop every thought from appearing, but we can work on the meaning we give it. The article's action steps are direct. Recall the past, then quickly swap the message to something more positive. Visualise the future issue as a possibility, then plan many ways to defeat it. Cure the worry virus, because that is where freedom lives. Time is spelt life. That line matters. If time is life, then the way we spend our attention becomes the way we spend our life. We can let life happen to us, or we can decide how we are going to lead it. Mini-summary / Do now: Do not wait for the mind to become silent. Lead it. Choose your attitude, choose your focus, and choose today's action. Final Summary Freedom is not the absence of difficult memories or anxious future thoughts. Freedom is the ability to recognise them, neutralise the worry, and choose a better mental response. William James reminds us that attitude can alter life. Victor Frankl reminds us that attitude remains a human freedom even under extreme circumstances. Dale Carnegie's "day tight" compartments give us a practical daily method. The past can teach us. The future can prepare us. But worry should not be allowed to steal the present. Quick Actions for Leaders and Professionals Recall the event, then deliberately shift to a more useful thought. Ask what the worst future outcome could be, then plan ways to improve it. Protect today from unnecessary past and future worry. Treat attitude as a leadership discipline, not a mood. Remember that time is life, so attention needs direction.

From the Inside Out: With Rivkah Krinsky and Eda Schottenstein
Send us Fan MailRachel Goldberg-Polin on Faith, Grief, and Meaning After Hersh's Captivity | From the Inside OutHosts Rivkah Krinsky and Eda Schottenstein interview educator and author Rachel Goldberg-Polin about her book When We See You Again, her family's life in Jerusalem, and the loss of her son Hersh Goldberg-Polin, who was taken hostage from the Nova Music Festival on October 7 and later murdered after 328 days in captivity. Rachel recounts her path into Orthodox Jewish life starting in eighth grade at an Orthodox day school, describes how tefillah and Torah have sustained her, and shares how Viktor Frankl's Man's Search for Meaning—relayed to her through released hostage Or Levy—became a tool for enduring suffering by finding purpose. She discusses Modeh Ani, trust in Hashem amid uncertainty, grief as an expression of love, “toxic positivity” versus “tragic optimism,” and verses and teachings that frame this world as a hallway to the next.EPISODE SPONSORSColel Chabad Colel Chabad is one of Israel's oldest continuously operating charities, supporting families with food security, widows & orphans, and emergency relief.

In this episode of The Tarot Diagnosis, I explore a question that has been lingering in my mind for months: What do the pillars in tarot actually symbolize on a deeper psychological level?Using Viktor Frankl's famous quote - “Between stimulus and response there is a space…,” I reflect on how the pillars in cards like the High Priestess, Justice, the Hierophant, and even the Moon might represent more than just duality or balance. I explore the possibility that these pillars symbolize psychological thresholds or liminal spaces where uncertainty, intuition, morality, projection, fear, and meaning live.I dive into the symbolism of the flowing/airy tapestry behind the High Priestess and contrast it with the heavy, obscuring curtain behind Justice, exploring how these archetypes reflect the tension between flexibility and rigidity. Through a Jungian, somatic, and trauma-informed lens, I discuss how the body often senses something before the mind can, and before the brain can organize it into language, as well as how our desire for certainty can sometimes become a defense mechanism against our discomfort with ambiguity.From there, I turn toward the Hierophant and explore the psychological impact of inherited systems rooted in religion, morality, culture, authority, and collective meaning-making. I reflect on what happens when external structures override internal knowing, and why the space between the pillars matters so much when it comes to identity, autonomy, and self-trust.I also explain why I believe the Moon belongs in this conversation, despite its “pillars” technically being towers. For me, The Moon represents what happens behind the pillars: the unconscious terrain we enter when certainty becomes hazy and we are forced to navigate ambiguity without reassurance.Toward the end of the episode, I create a brand new three card tarot spread inspired by Frankl's quote.Pulling the Magician, Six of Pentacles, and Three of Wands, I explore themes of hyper-independence, receiving support, and what becomes possible when we stop trying to survive entirely on our own.This episode is part tarot symbolism analysis, part Jungian and therapeutic exploration, and part philosophical reflection on what exists in the space between instinct and action.Want more of this type of tarot experience?Join us at the Summer Solstice Summit - a three day, virtual tarot conference June 26-28.

From the Inside Out: With Rivkah Krinsky and Eda Schottenstein
Send us Fan MailDr. Edith Eger: Holocaust Survivor on Choice, Freedom, and Healing From the Inside OutIn this episode of From The Inside Out with Rivkah Krinsky & Eda Schottenstein, we're re-releasing an early, cherished interview after Dr. Edith Eger's death, honoring the Auschwitz survivor, psychoanalyst, and author of The Choice, who taught that while we can't control circumstances, we can choose our response. Eger recounts liberation after being left for dead, the loss of her parents and first love, guilt about her mother's death, and how returning to Auschwitz helped her forgive herself. She discusses Viktor Frankl's influence, finding purpose, sharing rather than hoarding, and distinguishing distress from stress. Eger offers guidance on self-love as self-care, expression as an antidote to depression, revisiting trauma, responding instead of reacting, compassionate listening with children, and building relationships through responsibility, growth, and hope, insisting hate keeps us imprisoned and that love is shown through actions.00:00 Tribute to Edith02:11 Meeting Edith Again02:30 Liberation and Legacy03:53 Frankl and Purpose05:19 Dancing to Survive05:54 First Love Lost07:27 Rescued from Death08:10 Joy and Growth Mindset11:35 Guilt and Forgiveness12:17 Faith and Sharing Bread14:57 Have Tos and Hope17:30 New Books and Recipes19:24 Wisdom and Self Love21:02 Secrets and Expression21:46 Kind Words Only22:48 Choices After Trauma23:40 Speak Your Truth24:55 Evolving Beyond Fear27:08 Mind Freedom in Auschwitz29:57 Forgiveness and Freedom31:06 Validate Feelings at Home34:45 Marriage Lessons Twice37:41 Respond Don't React39:45 Legacy and Final YesesCOMMUNITYJoin the Community!

Send us Fan MailLife has a way of getting lifely — and this episode was born right in the middle of mine. In Episode 208, I get personal about a season that brought me to stillness, to my car, to my breath — and ultimately, to a word that changed everything for me this year. If you have ever found yourself waiting for the perfect moment to start again, or wondering if the hard thing you are going through has any light in it at all, this episode is for you. Come as you are. Start where you are. That is always enough.From a beloved novel to a spontaneous act of love from my son, from peer-reviewed science to a 14th century poet — I weave together the stories, the research, and the reminders that the light within you has never gone out. It may be quiet. It may be flickering. But it is there, and it has been there your whole life. I hope this episode helps you see it.Quote of the week: "I wish I could show you, when you are lonely or in darkness, the astonishing light of your own being." — Hafiz of ShirazFina's 2025 Reading ListThe 48 Laws of Power — Robert GreeneThe Prince — Niccolò MachiavelliThe Art of War — Sun TzuQuotations from the Works of Mao Tse-Tung — Mao ZedongRight Thing Right Now — Ryan HolidayAwaken the Giant Within — Tony RobbinsThe Big Leap — Gay HendricksEmotional Intelligence — Bradberry & GreavesA Return to Love — Marianne WilliamsonNo Mud No Lotus — Thich Nhat HanhTao Te Ching — Translated by Stephen MitchellMindful Investor — Maria GonzalezEducated — Tara WestoverSlaughterhouse-Five — Kurt Vonnegut1929 — Andrew Ross SorkinBooks ReferencedDoerr, Anthony.

“A mark of an intelligent person is humility. If you have the right amount of humility, then you're seeking out knowledge from others rather than thinking you're going to invent something new. It's really about executing well on ideas.” — Deborah Kenny When her husband died of leukemia, leaving her a single mother of three small children, Deborah Kenny read Viktor Frankl's Man's Search for Meaning. She discovered her own meaning not in what she could get out of life, but what life was asking of her. And so she founded the Harlem Village Academies — a collection of K-12 charter schools in New York offering both free Montessori and the International Baccalaureate education. Kenny's new book, The Well-Educated Child, is the distillation of what she's learned in twenty-five years as a teacher. But it's simply summarized. Read books, she instructs. The more the better. Kenny's three-part definition of a well-educated child — quality thinking, agency, ethical purpose — requires reading fifty books a year. She did it with her own three children after her husband died — the closet door coming off its hinges and exiled in the garage for five years because she didn't have the time to call a handyman. But her kids fell in love with reading. And she's done the same with every cohort at the Harlem Village Academies over the last quarter century. The crisis in American education isn't primarily a crisis of resources, Kenny says. It's a crisis of will. Frankl's Man's Search for Meaning changed Deborah Kenny's life. If you want to change your kid's life, get them reading. A book a week. That's how to nurture not just a well-educated child but a responsible citizen. Five Takeaways • Viktor Frankl and the Question That Changed Everything: After her husband died of leukemia, leaving her a single mother of three young children, Kenny read Frankl's Man's Search for Meaning and found the question she'd been looking for: not what life has to offer you, but what is life asking of you. Her answer was to found the Harlem Village Academies — five charter schools in Harlem offering Montessori and the International Baccalaureate free of charge. The origin story matters because the book's argument isn't abstract. Kenny has lived it, as a grieving parent and as an educator, for twenty-five years. • Fifty Books a Year: Kids should be reading fifty books a year — at least an hour a day — and this should never change. Not passages, not graphic novels, not summaries: books. Great books that have stood the test of time, alongside books children get to choose for themselves. Kenny did it with her own three children after her husband died — the closet door came off its hinges and stayed in the garage for five years because she didn't have time to call a handyman, but her kids fell in love with reading. She has done it with every cohort at the Harlem Village Academies for twenty years. It is not unrealistic. It is essential. • If You Can't Argue the Other Side, You Don't Understand the Issue: Kenny's X post that caught Andrew's attention. Socratic seminar — the ability to argue a position you disagree with, back it up with evidence, and then live in the same community as the person you just defeated — is not a pedagogical technique. It's the definition of democracy. The polarisation crisis is, at its root, an education crisis. Elected officials no longer need to solve problems; they only need to stoke tribal loyalties. The fix is teaching children to enjoy disagreement — to take pride in an intellectually rigorous argument rather than treating opposition as hostility. • Pay Teachers Like Doctors: The Harlem Village Academies are the only schools in New York State offering both Montessori and the International Baccalaureate, free of charge. They run on teacher dedication that, Kenny admits, is not fair to the teachers and is not scalable. Her honest answer: if we want this level of education for everyone, we have to pay teachers like doctors and lawyers — three, four, six times what they currently earn. Teaching should be the hardest profession to enter and the most respected. The fact that it isn't is not an argument against the vision. It's an argument for changing the system. • Humility Is the Mark of an Intelligent Person: Kenny's educational philosophy borrows rather than invents. Montessori, the International Baccalaureate, Socratic seminar, the great books — none of these are new. She chose them precisely because they have stood the test of time. The mark of an intelligent person, she argues, is humility: if you have the right amount of it, you seek out knowledge from others rather than assuming you're going to invent something better. The job is not to innovate. The job is to execute well on what we already know works — with the will and the consistency to actually do it.

In this week's episode, Marcus Huff joins Pastor Kevin as they discuss hope.Ellis "Red" Redding once said: "Hope is a dangerous thing. Hope can drive a man insane." And yet, as Dr. Frankl - the author of "Man's Search for Meaning" - discovered: we all need something to put our hopes in to face the difficulties of our lives. So...what do we hope in?Kevin and Marcus share their own experiences of placing "hope" in various places - and what the outcomes of those hopes looked like. They also talk define "hope" as it is expressed in our culture compared to what "biblical hope" really is.As always, we hope you'll take something that we talk about in this conversation and start another conversation about Jesus with someone else.We hope you enjoy it!
Fabrice Midal, philosophe, fondateur de l'École Occidentale de Méditation et auteur d'une vingtaine de livres dont le dernier, Empêcher que le monde ne se défasse, paru récemment. C'est aussi l'auteur d'un podcast génial.Je le connaissais de loin. J'avais tort de ne pas l'avoir lu plus tôt. Dès qu'on s'est mis à parler, j'ai réalisé qu'on partageait une même manière de regarder le monde : avec inquiétude, mais sans résignation. Avec lucidité sur ce qui fout le camp, et une conviction tenace que quelque chose reste à faire, là, maintenant, à notre échelle.Dans cet épisode, nous parlons de ce que Fabrice appelle la calculabilité généralisée : cette tendance de notre époque à ne considérer comme réel que ce qui se mesure, se gère, se rentabilise. Et comment cette idéologie invisible, qu'on ne voit même plus parce qu'elle est partout, est à l'origine de beaucoup de nos souffrances, de nos burn-out, de notre sentiment d'impuissance collective.J'ai questionné Fabrice sur la différence entre la haine et la colère, sur ce que résister veut vraiment dire, sur pourquoi la méditation est devenue un outil de barbarie dans la majorité des entreprises, et sur ce que Camus, René Char, Etty Hillesum ont à nous dire aujourd'hui. Nous parlons aussi de la distinction entre le sacrifice et l'amour, entre le militantisme et l'engagement, entre réagir et agir.Ce qui m'a le plus frappé dans cette conversation : Fabrice ne propose pas de grand soir. Il propose un pas. Un seul. Et l'idée que ce pas, même invisible, même non mesurable, pourrait changer tout.3. CITATIONS MARQUANTES« Les gens font un burn-out parce qu'ils veulent trop bien faire. Ils ont tellement intégré ce modèle où il faut s'instrumentaliser, sinon on ne va plus trouver sa place. »« Ce qu'on prétend rationnel est très irrationnel. On est obligé de réduire le réel à des équations extrêmement sommaires. Et donc, on oublie non seulement le sensible, mais le réel lui-même. »« On meurt de chagrin. Personne ne meurt de colère. »« Fais ce que tu dois, advienne que pourra. Nous avons à empêcher, dans nos actions au quotidien, que le monde ne s'effondre. »« Ça ne change rien et ça change tout. Ce n'est pas nous qui pouvons mesurer les choses. »4. IDÉES CENTRALES (BIG IDEAS)1. La calculabilité comme idéologie invisible [00:04:57] Notre époque a redéfini le réel : est réel ce qui est calculable, gérable, rentable. Tout le reste, y compris la qualité d'une présence humaine, a été évacué du champ de ce qui compte. Cette idéologie n'est pas neutre : elle produit de la déshumanisation à grande échelle. Pourquoi c'est important : cela requalifie nos problèmes. Ce ne sont pas des problèmes psychologiques, ce sont des problèmes idéologiques. La responsabilité change de camp.2. Dépsychologiser nos souffrances [00:06:00] Le burn-out n'est pas un problème de gestion émotionnelle individuelle. C'est le symptôme d'un modèle qui demande aux gens de s'instrumentaliser pour garder leur place. Remettre la cause dans le système, pas dans la personne, est un geste philosophique et politique. Pourquoi c'est important : ça libère. Et ça déplace l'action possible.3. Colère vs haine : une distinction vitale [00:18:30 – 00:27:00] La colère est saine, elle dit non à l'injustice. Elle est une force de vie, confirmée par l'éthologie, la physiologie, et Descartes lui-même. La haine, elle, veut détruire et jouir de la destruction. Toute résistance qui glisse de la colère vers la haine finit par devenir ce qu'elle combat. Pourquoi c'est important : savoir réussir sa colère, lui donner forme sans la transformer en haine, c'est la condition d'une résistance qui reste humaine.4. Agir sans garantie de résultat [00:15:17 – 00:18:00] Toutes les grandes révolutions, toutes les résistances historiques, ont été faites par des gens qui ne calculaient pas leur impact. Les résistants disaient "je ne pouvais pas faire autrement", pas "j'ai optimisé ma stratégie". Attendre la certitude d'impact avant d'agir, c'est rester prisonnier du système même qu'on veut changer. Pourquoi c'est important : ça autorise à agir maintenant, à sa propre échelle, sans diplôme de héros.5. L'excellence comme acte de résistance ordinaire [00:45:10 – 00:48:00] Sauver le monde n'est pas réservé aux militants. Un médecin qui prend le temps de parler, un cuisinier qui fait à manger avec du cœur : chaque acte fait avec présence empêche que le monde ne se défasse. L'excellence n'est pas la performance calculée, c'est l'humanité mise dans ce qu'on fait. Pourquoi c'est important : ça restitue à chacun une puissance d'agir concrète, immédiate, sans attendre les conditions idéales.6. L'identité comme prison [00:49:39 – 00:51:30] L'injonction contemporaine à se définir, à s'enfermer dans une identité stable, est une illusion. Nous sommes des êtres relationnels, façonnés par le contexte. Ce qui nous libère n'est pas de savoir qui on est, mais d'être en relation. C'est la relation qui guérit. Pourquoi c'est important : cela remet en cause l'individualisme comme fondement de l'action et de l'identité.5. QUESTIONS POSÉES DANS L'INTERVIEWComment toi, tu regardes et tu observes le monde dans lequel on évolue en ce moment ?Pour la plupart des gens, ce qui est réel, c'est ce qui est calculable. Qu'est-ce que ça veut dire concrètement ?Qu'est-ce qui t'effraie dans ce monde ?Tu penses qu'on est dans l'immonde ?Comment tu redescends dans le concret pour traverser cette période, pour les gens qui sont perdus ?Est-ce que c'est possible de vraiment s'extraire de ce modèle ?Tu fais une différence entre la colère et la haine, et tu dis que la colère est saine. C'est quoi une colère réussie ?La méditation n'est-elle pas devenue, elle aussi, un outil de gestion du stress au service du système ?Comment faire son travail bien, dans ce monde-là, sans se trahir ?Qu'est-ce qui te donne envie du futur, toi ?6.

Meet Dr. Stewart Desson, CEO of Lumina Learning, a leader who sees leadership in layers: strategy and vision plus the ability to inspire purpose and meaning. Dr. Desson believes leaders must celebrate humanity so people can connect to a cause and give unrestricted energy to make an impact. His leadership approach blends self-awareness with purpose and authenticity — claiming who you are so others feel invited to do the same. Grounded in science and curiosity, he dispels myths, welcomes challenge, and changes beliefs when evidence demands it. Dr. Desson uses coaching, retreats, and collaborative research to foster self-development and growth. His favorite guiding principle: “Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom.” — Viktor E. Frankl
Título principal del episodio: El fin del determinismo psicológico | Viktor Frankl, Rollo May y el sentido del sufrimiento 5 títulos alternativos para el episodio: 4 ideas que van a ayudarte a entender tu sufrimiento de otra manera Llevas haciendo mal esto: querer eliminar toda tu ansiedad Esta forma de entender el dolor puede cambiar tu vida para siempre 5 cosas que nunca te contaron sobre la ansiedad y la libertad interior Por qué dejar de huir del sufrimiento puede transformarte Descripción del podcast: Descubre Como Entender de Verdad Un Trastorno de Ansiedad y Tomar Acción En Nuestro Curso Gratuito El Mapa de La Ansiedad: https://escuelaansiedad.com/Cursos/el-mapa-de-la-ansiedad ️ En este episodio de La Teoría de la Mente nos adentramos en una de las ideas más revolucionarias de la psicología moderna: el cuestionamiento del determinismo psicológico. Durante buena parte del siglo XX, la psicología estuvo dominada por corrientes que reducían al ser humano a una especie de mecanismo pasivo, gobernado por fuerzas externas o impulsos inconscientes. Frente a esta visión, autores como Viktor Frankl y Rollo May defendieron algo profundamente incómodo, pero también liberador: que incluso en medio del dolor, la incertidumbre y la adversidad, el ser humano conserva un espacio interior de libertad. Por un lado, revisamos cómo el conductismo radical de B.F. Skinner entendía al individuo como un organismo condicionado por premios y castigos, una especie de autómata moldeado por el ambiente. Por otro, exploramos la propuesta del psicoanálisis clásico de Freud, que concebía la vida psíquica como el resultado de tensiones inconscientes e impulsos reprimidos. Aunque ambos modelos hicieron aportaciones valiosas, compartían una consecuencia importante: dejaban poco espacio para la decisión consciente, la responsabilidad personal y el sentido de la existencia. ✨ Es aquí donde la psicología existencial introduce una ruptura decisiva. En este episodio analizamos cómo Viktor Frankl, a partir de su experiencia extrema en los campos de concentración nazis, llegó a una conclusión radical: al ser humano se le puede arrebatar casi todo, excepto la libertad de elegir su actitud ante las circunstancias. Su observación no fue teórica, sino profundamente vivida. En medio del horror, Frankl vio que algunas personas se derrumbaban, mientras que otras conservaban su dignidad, su humanidad e incluso su capacidad de ayudar. De esa experiencia nace una de sus intuiciones más poderosas: entre el estímulo y la respuesta existe un espacio, y en ese espacio reside nuestra libertad. También profundizamos en la propuesta de Rollo May, quien llevó estas ideas al terreno de la ansiedad cotidiana. En una cultura que muchas veces interpreta cualquier malestar como algo que debe ser eliminado cuanto antes, May defendió una visión muy distinta: no toda ansiedad es patológica. Existe una ansiedad normal, inevitable y necesaria, que aparece cuando vivimos cambios, asumimos riesgos, tomamos decisiones importantes o salimos de viejos patrones. Esa ansiedad no es el enemigo, sino muchas veces el precio de crecer. El problema aparece cuando intentamos reprimir sistemáticamente esa incomodidad y convertirla en algo que no queremos sentir nunca. Entonces surge la ansiedad neurótica, más paralizante, más destructiva y más desconectada del sentido. Este episodio es una invitación a repensar nuestra relación con el sufrimiento. Tal vez el dolor emocional no sea siempre una avería que haya que silenciar de inmediato. Tal vez, como sugieren Frankl y May, el sufrimiento pueda contener una pregunta, una llamada, una oportunidad de transformación. No porque haya que romantizar el dolor, sino porque evitarlo a toda costa puede alejarnos de una vida más auténtica. Si alguna vez te has preguntado si realmente eres libre, si la ansiedad tiene un significado o si el sufrimiento puede convertirse en una vía de crecimiento, este episodio de La Teoría de la Mente te va a dar una perspectiva profunda, humana y transformadora.

Mai Hua, réalisatrice et autrice est une amie et elle est venue plein de fois sur Vlan! Elle a signé Les rivières et Make Me a Man, et sort aujourd'hui Mayday, un documentaire qui filme l'intérieur d'une retraite thérapeutique de 14 jours, sans électricité, sans réseaux sociaux, avec 12 personnes qui ne se connaissent pas et n'ont rien en commun.Mai Hua est donc une amie proche. On se connaît depuis longtemps et j'attendais cet épisode avec impatience, parce que ce qu'elle explore touche exactement ce que j'essaie de mettre en mots depuis des années : comment retrouver de l'élan dans un monde qui semble faire tout pour nous l'enlever.Dans cet épisode, nous parlons de la différence fondamentale entre développement personnel et soin collectif, de ce que ça fait de vivre sans téléphone pendant deux semaines, du rôle de la colère comme émotion mal comprise et puissante, et de pourquoi la joie est un acte politique, pas un sentiment léger.J'ai questionné Mai Hua sur ce que le cinéma peut soigner que la thérapie ne peut pas, sur la manière dont les réseaux sociaux organisent notre séparation, et sur ce que les peuples racines ont compris que nous avons oublié. C'est une conversation sur le courage, au sens littéral : courage vient du mot cœur. Et c'est exactement ce dont il est question ici.Citations marquantes"Est-ce que tu veux être une bonne personne ou une personne entière ?" — Carl Jung, cité par Mai Hua en ouverture du film Mayday."The circle is a shaman. D'être ensemble, ça nous fait accéder à une super intelligence, une super âme. Ce n'est pas juste un plus un font deux.""Si tu perds la joie, tu perds deux fois." — Nicolas Gau, cité par Mai Hua."Quand ton corps vit dans des éléments, il n'y a plus de douche, il fait froid, il y a une rivière pour se laver, le toi que tu vas créer est totalement différent de celui que tu peux créer devant ton ordinateur.""La raison d'être de la tribu, c'est la guérison des individus. C'est ça qu'on doit faire. Trouver la super soul qui va amener de la guérison aux individus pour nous mettre en mouvement."Idées dont nous parlons1. Le collectif comme antidote, pas comme supplément Timestamp approximatif : 0:05:30 à 0:07:11 La retraite filmée dans Mayday n'est pas du développement personnel. C'est une proposition culturelle : changer les règles du vivre-ensemble pour voir ce que les individus deviennent quand la tribu a pour cœur de les guérir, et non de les rendre productifs. Le capitalisme a inversé ce paradigme. Filmer ça, c'est montrer qu'une autre logique existe, et qu'elle fonctionne.2. La colère comme condition de l'intégrité Timestamp approximatif : 0:20:52 à 0:24:07 Réprimer la colère, c'est se couper d'une partie de soi. Dans une société de performance qui demande de gérer ses émotions, on devient "bonne personne" au sens social du terme mais on cesse d'être entier. La scène de la batte de baseball dans Mayday illustre ce que ça coûte de mettre cette émotion sous cloche, et ce que ça libère de la traverser.3. La joie est révolutionnaire Timestamp approximatif : 0:33:54 à 0:34:42 La joie n'est pas un sentiment léger ni un luxe. C'est le carburant de la résistance. Elle est inconditionnelle, intérieure, accessible, mais son accès est obstrué. Ce que la retraite, le film et la conversation visent tous les trois : désinterdire l'accès à la joie dans un monde qui tire systématiquement vers les passions tristes.4. L'écoute soigne plus que la parole Timestamp approximatif : 0:40:22 à 0:42:29 Le cercle s'appelle "cercle de paroles" mais c'est en réalité un cercle d'écoute. On parle une fois, on écoute vingt fois. Et c'est dans cet espace que quelque chose se libère : la parole de l'autre, quand elle circonscrît une vérité qu'on n'arrivait pas à formuler soi-même, agit comme de la magie. Delphine de Vigan l'a formulé ainsi : c'est un film qui parle du pouvoir des mots.5. On devient ce qu'on cultive Timestamp approximatif : 0:51:05 à 0:53:13 Les humains sont hyper adaptables. La violence comme l'entraide sont des potentiels. Ce qui décide, c'est la culture dans laquelle on s'inscrit, ce qu'on choisit d'entretenir.

They Can't Take Everything #RTTBROS #Nightlight"That I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings." — Philippians 3:10Viktor Frankl was an Austrian psychiatrist. He was also a Holocaust survivor. When the Nazis ordered him to report to a concentration camp, he faced an unbearable choice. He had been invited to flee to America and teach at a university there. But his elderly parents could not survive the journey. So he stayed. He lost his manuscript, the work of a lifetime. He lost his parents. He lost nearly everything in the crucible of Auschwitz.But he discovered something they could not take from him.The guards would come in and beat him and torture him. And when they came in, Frankl would ask them how their families were. How their children were. They were stunned by it. One of them finally asked him, how do you do that? After everything we're doing to you, how do you ask us how we are?Frankl said, you've taken everything from me that you can take. You cannot take how I choose to respond.Paul would not have been surprised by that at all. He wrote Philippians from a Roman prison. Beaten. Scarred. Chained. And he called the fellowship of Christ's sufferings the highest fellowship a human being can enter into. Not because suffering is good, but because it is in the depths of suffering that we discover what cannot be taken from us, our relationship with a living Savior.What are you facing right now that feels like it's taking everything? Friend, they can't take that.Let's pray: Lord, in our suffering, draw us into the deep fellowship of knowing You. Let nothing separate us from Your love. In Jesus' name, Amen.#Faith #Suffering #Hope #ChristianLiving #DailyDevotion #VictorFrankl #RTTBROS #NightlightBe sure to Like, Share, Follow and subscribe it helps get the word out.https://linktr.ee/rttbros
What does it really take to feel seen, heard, and truly free? Coach and speaker Dave James shares his journey through anger, therapy, career change and personal challenges, showing how these experiences shaped his approach to being fully validated. He explains why he chooses frameworks over rigid structures, how his values of fun, freedom and fairness guide his work, and why feeling more—rather than knowing more—is his life's experiment. A candid conversation about vulnerability, growth and how anyone can choose to build frameworks for freedom. KEY TAKEAWAY "Freedom is choice, but for me, it's very much a felt thing. I know when I've got it, and my body and brain tell me when I haven't. It's because I've turned a framework into a structure." BOOK RECOMMENDATION* Man's Search for Meaning by Viktor E.

SummaryClayton Cuteri breaks down a pattern hidden inside every major sacred text on Earth, from the Mahabharata and the Vedas to the Bible and the Gospel of Thomas. Drawing on teachings from his guru, Amithaab, and the Chola Dynasty, Clayton explains why empires buried this knowledge, how spiritual masters viewed adversity, and why the "before, not because of" distinction changes how you understand suffering.He introduces the play of consciousness framework, references Viktor Frankl's mental freedom inside a Nazi concentration camp, and delivers a practical three-step framework for transmuting karma.

La ley 1) No pienses: Una vez leí que es casi imposible para la ciencia que una abeja vuele, porque sus alas son pequeñas y su cuerpo es pesado. Las leyes de la física dicen que es difícil, pero la abeja no lo sabe. Eso la lleva a salir a buscar la miel y seguir moviéndose por su objetivo. Lo mismo vos, siempre hay gente que te dirá lo que no podés y lo imposible que es para vos todo, pero, mientras tengas en claro a dónde ir y el para qué ir, lo vas a lograr todo. La abeja vuela porque no sabe que no puede y vos podés volar en tu vida si decides no escuchar a los que siempre te quieren tirar para abajo. Deja de buscar la aprobación de quien nunca lo intentó, porque los que cambian el mundo son los que vuelan cuando todos dicen que es imposible. Eso lo aprendí yo con mi vida, incluso con mi sacerdocio.2) Desaparezca: Si vemos la familia de Jesús comprendemos que hay varias “manzanas podridas” y que nunca cumplieron la ley tajantemente. Caín tiene celos de su hermano Abel y lo mata. Lamec induce a la poligamia. Noé se embriaga y maldice a su nieto. Isaac e Ismael serán enemigos que llevan a guerras hasta el día de la fecha a judíos y musulmanes. David, el matador del gigante, tenía una personalidad tan irregular, que manda a matar a su hombre más fiel para quedarse con la esposa de él, con la cual ya le era infiel. Salomón tenía 900 concubinas, ¡Uff! Esta es la familia de Jesús, aunque te duela. Todos tuvieron problemas, pero esto nos recuerda que Jesús nos viene a redimir a todos y que todos tenemos debilidades y fragilidades, tanto en nosotros como en nuestra misma familia. Por lo tanto, para redimir hay que aceptar.3) Juzgar: Víctor Frankl enseña que muchas personas no están tristes, sino que más bien están vacías. Pues tienen comodidades y opciones, hasta distracciones, pero no le encuentran sentido. Y cuando le falta sentido a lo que hago y cómo vivo, ya nada me sirve, y todo el tiempo empiezo a juzgar con el dedito a este y a aquel. Es por ello que Víctor Frankl muestra cómo sobrevivió al campo de concentración nazi, buscando el sentido a todo lo que hacía. Por lo tanto, busca en Dios el sentido de tu vida para que tu vida tenga un sentido del por qué y para qué vivir. Algo bueno está por venir.
The Man Who Proved Meaning Is Stronger Than SufferingIn the darkest chapter of human history, when hope seemed like a luxury few could afford, one man discovered a truth so powerful that it would outlive the horrors around him.His name was Viktor Frankl.Frankl was an Austrian neurologist and psychiatrist. In 1942, he was arrested by the Nazis and sent to a concentration camp. Over the next several years, he endured four different camps, including Auschwitz. He lost his parents, his brother, and his pregnant wife. Everything he owned—his career, his manuscript, his freedom—was taken from him.By any external measure, his life had been stripped of meaning.But here's where the story turns.While imprisoned, Frankl noticed something remarkable.People were experiencing the same starvation, brutality, and despair—yet some survived psychologically, while others gave up long before their bodies failed.The difference wasn't strength.It wasn't intelligence.It wasn't luck.It was meaning.Frankl observed that prisoners who could anchor themselves to a future purpose—a loved one waiting for them, work they still hoped to complete, or a reason to endure one more day—were far more likely to survive. Meaning, he realized, was not a luxury. It was a survival tool.One night, freezing and exhausted, Frankl imagined himself standing in a lecture hall after the war, teaching students about the psychology of the concentration camps—explaining how humans can endure unimaginable suffering if they understand why they are suffering.That imagined future kept him alive.After the war, Frankl returned to Vienna. He rewrote the manuscript that had been taken from him in the camps and published a book that would go on to change millions of lives: Man's Search for Meaning. It has since sold over 16 million copies and is considered one of the most influential books of the 20th century.Frankl didn't claim suffering was good.He didn't romanticize pain.Instead, he offered this quiet, powerful truth:“Everything can be taken from a person but one thing: the freedom to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances.”He went on to develop logotherapy, a form of psychotherapy centered on helping people discover meaning in their lives—not by eliminating hardship, but by transforming it.Frankl lived to be 92 years old.The man who lost nearly everything proved something extraordinary:

Entrepreneurship often promises freedom, but for many high performers, success can come at the cost of time, health, and relationships. After years in private equity, Sahil Bloom realized that money alone doesn't guarantee fulfillment, freedom, or a meaningful life. That realization deepened when he learned he might only see his parents 15 more times before they passed if he stayed on his current path. Within 45 days, he left his job, sold his house, and rebuilt his life around what mattered most.

01-20-26 Mika Frankl joins the show to promote a new show coming to 101.7 The TEAM
Journey with host Sue Rose Minahan and Florida astrologer Courtney Goldstein for a potent conversation on Viktor E. Frankl's Man's Search For Meaning. Ranked as one of the "ten most influential books in the United States," Frankl's wisdom provides a roadmap for finding purpose and deep meaningfulness through—and despite—profound change.The Celestial Landscape of 2026: We are living in a time of astounding shifts. Our personal and collective lives are interweaving at an accelerated rate as the cosmos energies propel into new territory:Jan 6: The Capricorn Venus Star Point brought a mature, grounded Venus into focus.Feb 17: The upcoming Eclipse season ignites the Lunar New Year Fire Horse.The Zero Point: A riveting Saturn-Neptune conjunction looms at 0° Aries—the start of the Zodiac.As the "kettle" of shared ideas merges, it is time to anchor ourselves in inner meaning, even as our external attachments evolve. Viktor Frankl's work is particularly resonant for the "Fire Horse" year; both require a great deal of internal strength and a "will to meaning."The Frankl Message: The Last Human Freedom: Psychologist and WWII Holocaust survivor Viktor Frankl emerged from concentration camps with an imperative message: Our ultimate freedom is the ability to choose our own attitude. To find meaning, we care for others and hold onto purpose despite, and through, suffering. Our attitude empowers us to move from victimhood to being victorious within, finding meaning in a year of astounding change.Stay Connected and Inspired!

Change feels different every time—but it never is. From John Henry to today, this episode explores the recurring moment when the world moves on… and where people still fit.Every generation feels it—the sense that this time, change is different.Faster. Bigger. Final.But history tells another story.From the legend of John Henry to the modern moment, this episode explores the recurring human experience that appears whenever progress accelerates: the quiet question of where people fit when the world moves on.This isn't a story about winning, resisting, or keeping up.It's about the moment that keeps returning—and the small space where choice still exists.If this perspective resonated, consider liking, subscribing, or sharing.And thanks for spending the time here.________________________________________

Summary In this episode, Cultivating Curiosity host Jeff Ikler reflects on his love of year-end "Best Books" lists and why reading sits at the heart of his podcast and personal life. He welcomes lists from institutions like The New York Times and the New York Public Library, seeing them as both a defense against book banning and a source of discovery, connection, and generosity. For Ikler, books spark curiosity, deepen empathy, and create bonds—whether through gifting or thoughtful conversation with authors. He also underscores podcast hosts' responsibility to read their guests' work in full, arguing that preparation honors both listeners and writers. Ultimately, Ikler finds himself drawn to books that slow him down through careful observation and reflection, or expand his understanding through deeply researched history, reinforcing reading as both nourishment and refuge. Three Major Takeaways Reading lists are acts of resistance, curiosity, and connection—not just recommendations. Thoughtful reading is essential to meaningful conversation, especially in podcasting. The most rewarding books either sharpen our attention to the present or deepen our understanding of the past. Jeff's favorite books in 2025 Crossings – How Road Ecology is Shaping the Future of Our Planet by Ben Goldfarb. Quoting from the book jacket, "Creatures from antelope to salmon are losing their ability to migrate in search of food and mates; invasive plants hitch rides in tire treads, road salt contaminates lakes and rivers; and the very, very noise of traffic chases songbirds from vast swaths of habitat." In this beautifully crafted book, Goldfarb makes the case that overpasses and underpasses are essential for reducing the deaths of animals and humans who inevitably come into brutal contact with one another. One of the chief takeaways in our era of divisiveness is that road ecologists and other scientists, insurance companies, and government officials are working collaboratively to solve problems. They have different goals for doing so, but they're working effectively at the intersection. You can access my two-part podcast interview on Getting Unstuck–Cultivating Curiosity with Ben in episodes 347 and 348. The Comfort of Crows – A Backyard Year by Margaret Renkl. This title came from one of last year's best books, and it did not disappoint. Quoting from the book jacket, "Margaret Renkl presents a literary devotional: fifty-two chapters that follow the creatures and plants in her backyard over the course of a year." How often do you read a chapter or passage because the writing is so moving? If you're interested in slowing down and seeing more of your immediate world, this is a great place to start. This small volume is a course in observation and reflection. Challenger – A True Story of Heroism and Disaster on the Edge of Space by Adam Higginbotham. Like many Americans who watched the Space Shuttle Challenger break apart just seventy-three seconds into its mission, I thought I knew the story, but I was so wrong. As the book jacket explains, "…the Challenger disaster was a defining moment in twentieth-century history–one that forever changed the way America thought of itself and its optimistic view of the future. Yet the full story of what happened, and why, has never been told." I was moved to head-shaking anger after reading how decisions were made and bungled. Higginbotham's explanation of a highly complicated topic is beautifully presented. The book is a primer on the dangers of overly complex and competing bureaucracies and ego. Remember Us – American Sacrifice, Dutch Freedom, and a Forever Promise Forged in World War II by Robert M. Edsel with Bret Witter. Remember Us documents twelve lives connected to the American Military Cemetery near the small village of Margraten, Netherlands. Approximately 8,300 Americans who helped liberate the Netherlands from the Nazis and the grip of fascism during World War II are buried there. One of these was a Black American soldier who, along with a company of other Black Americans, dug the graves under the harshest weather conditions. The cruel irony is that Black soldiers worked in segregated and mostly non-combat roles in a war fought to eliminate tyranny and oppression. The cemetery is remarkable because local Dutch citizens have taken it upon themselves to adopt each grave and visit it weekly. This practice reflects the citizens' ongoing gratitude, and their visits ensure that the soldiers are always remembered for their sacrifice. There is a waiting list of citizens who wish to adopt a grave. Raising Hare—a Memoir by Chloe Dalton. This title has made almost every list I've come across. From the jacket cover, "…Dalton stumbles upon a newborn hare—a leveret—that had been chased by a dog. Fearing for its life, she brings it home, only to discover how difficult it is to rear a wild hare." Dalton deftly and wisely navigates caring for the hare as a house guest versus a pet, a choice that lets the hare move between the wild of the nearby woods and the security of her home. Like Renkl, Dalton has a keen eye for observation, one that put me in her home and garden as a witness to their interactions. Origin — A Genetic History of the Americas by Jennifer Raff. When I was growing up, I watched or read with almost religious fervor anything National Geographic produced featuring Louis Leakey, a paleoanthropologist and archaeologist. I was in awe of how he dug through the layers of time to find bones and artifacts from our earliest ancestors. Leakey's work was critical in demonstrating our human origins in Africa. So, when my friend Annette Taylor, a researcher of evolutionary psychology and biology, shared an article featuring Professor Jennifer Raff, an anthropologist and geneticist trying to rewrite the history of human origins in the Americas, I knew I had to invite her on my podcast. As a history enthusiast, I found it especially rewarding to co-host, along with Annette, a discussion with Professor Raff on podcast episode 358 about how and why early peoples migrated to and within North America. Raff has a talent for simplifying complex topics and making listeners comfortable with uncertainty. Scientists have theories and are constantly testing and revising them. We don't yet know for sure how early peoples arrived here or why they migrated, but that's the beauty of science and history. There is always more to discover. If You Lived Here, I'd Know Your Name by Heather Lende. I read this book decades ago and was as captivated then as I was this year by Heather Lende's storytelling ability. Adapted from the back cover, "As both the obituary writer and social columnist for the local newspaper (in Haines, Alaska, population about 2,500), Heather Lende knows better than anyone the goings-on in this breathtakingly beautiful place. Her offbeat chronicle brings us inside her — and the town's — busy life." Why read about a small town in Alaska? Maybe because it helps us look critically at our own lives. Like Renkl and Dalton, Heather Lende has an eye for detail, but also the humanity beneath the detail. She has graciously agreed to be my guest in podcast episode 400 this coming February. The most interesting books read in 2025 by his friends and colleagues Steve Ehrlich – The Inner Work of Age: Shifting from Role to Soul by Connie Zweig. Zweig writes from a Jungian perspective that is accessible to anyone who thinks about old and new agendas, internal and external, as we transition to later life, and reflect on what we want to hold on to, and what we're prepared to let go of to live an authentic life. Cindy House – What Just Happened by Charles Finch. It's one person's experience of the terrible year that was the pandemic lockdown, with all the fear, uncertainty, and strangeness I had forgotten. I loved his cultural observations and witty take on one of the weirdest years of our lives. I am so glad this particular record exists. By Edgington – The Untethered Soul by Michael A. Singer. I first read the book in 2013, then again in '24, and now I read and refer to it every year. Singer's book is what propelled me to join his Temple of the Universe, where Mariah and I now live on the grounds. It's filled with inspiration and simple, almost homely wisdom: "The moment in front of you is not bothering you; you're bothering yourself about the moment in front of you!" Spencer Seim – To Possess the Land by Frank Waters. It follows the life of Arthur Manby, who came to the New Mexico territory in 1885 from England. He quickly tried to cash in by calling parcels of land his own. He quickly ran into resistance, often by force, and had to learn the hard way that the land of New Mexico in those days was a bit more complicated. Charlotte Wittenkamp – Shift by Ethan Kross. Kross examines Viktor Frankl's Man's Search for Meaning and the notion that we always have the freedom to choose how we respond - even to the atrocities Frankl had to put up with in a WWII concentration camp. Kross examines and supports, with scientific findings, various ways we can shift our perspectives to gain easier access to that freedom of choice. Paul McNichols – E-Boat Alert by James F. Tent. The book offers a nearly forensic yet highly readable analysis of the threat posed by the E-Boats of the German Kriegsmarine to the Allied invasion of Europe in 1944. It covers the development, use, strengths, and limitations of these fast, maneuverable craft, as well as their impact on the Normandy landings on D-Day and the weeks thereafter. The most interesting part is the chain of events that ultimately led to their neutralization. Annette Taylor – My Name is Chellis, and I'm in Recovery from Western Civilization by Chellis Glendinning. Chellis writes affectionately and respectfully about eco-psychology and nature-based peoples from whom members of Western Civilization could learn a lot. Sue Inches – The Light Eaters – How the unseen world of plant intelligence offers a new understanding of life on earth by Zoe Schlanger. A thrilling journey that leads the reader from an old paradigm of plants as separate inanimate objects, to the true nature of plants as sensing, alive beings who communicate with the world around them. An inspiring example of how human understanding of the world around us is making progress! Rich Gassen – The Art of Gathering by Priya Parker. Priya teaches us how to have better parties, events, and relationships through her writing. I used this book's information (along with her podcasts) to plan a better 10-year anniversary party for the Campus Supervisors Network community of practice I lead at UW-Madison — making it exclusive, inviting, and tailored to those who attended. Mac Bogert – Renegades by Robert Ward. After some time as a college professor, Bob decided to try journalism. He spent twenty years interviewing folks from Waylon Jennings to Larry Flynt, and, damn, he's good at it! Hunter Seim – Catch-22 by Joseph Heller. The novel is set during World War II, from 1942 to 1944. It mainly follows the life of antihero Captain Yossarian, a U.S. Air Force B-25 bombardier. The term "Catch-22" itself refers to a paradoxical situation in which contradictory rules or circumstances trap a person. In the novel, Yossarian discovers that he can be declared insane and relieved from duty if he requests it, but by requesting it, he demonstrates his sanity. Remarkably accurate in describing organizational dysfunction and bureaucratic absurdity. It was the perfect book to read in 2025. Bill Whiteside – I Regret Almost Everything by Keith McNally. I wondered whether this memoir by a New York restaurateur (who hates the word "restaurateur" and much else), who suffered two strokes and survived a suicide attempt, would live up to its social media hype. It does.

Qual é o sentido da vida — e como encontrar sentido mesmo diante do sofrimento, da culpa e da morte? Neste vídeo, apresentamos a vida e as ideias de Viktor Frankl (1905–1997), médico, psicólogo e filósofo existencial, criador da logoterapia e da análise existencial. A partir de sua experiência nos campos de concentração nazistas e de sua reflexão sobre o niilismo, Frankl sustenta uma tese central: podemos perder quase tudo — exceto a liberdade interior de escolher nossa atitude. Ao longo da exposição, você vai entender por que, para Frankl, o ser humano não se reduz apenas a corpo e mente, mas possui uma dimensão espiritual orientada ao logos (sentido) e aberta à transcendência.
Viktor Frankl is the psychotherapist who developed Logotherapy after surviving Auschwitz under the Nazi'sI first read this book years ago and so many things resonated, it really helped me at that time and I was inspired to study at his school, from which I now have an accreditation. Frankl is the first person I know of to articulate the connection between meaning and suffering with such a robust philosophy.

Ask Me How I Know: Multifamily Investor Stories of Struggle to Success
High performers often believe ambition always leads to burnout.This episode shows how to pursue meaningful goals without self-abandonment, using nervous system regulation, identity alignment, and stewarded ambition that doesn't cost you.Many high-capacity humans assume burnout is simply the cost of ambition.In this episode of The Recalibration, Julie Holly challenges that belief by introducing a different way of moving through work, leadership, and purpose — ambition that is regulated, aligned, and sustainable.Building on the week's exploration of burnout recovery, decision fatigue, role confusion, and success without fulfillment, this conversation focuses on embodiment. It answers the question many leaders quietly carry: How do I stay ambitious without leaving myself behind?Julie explains how burnout is often not caused by effort itself, but by misalignment between identity and motion. When ambition is driven by pressure, fear, or the need to prove worth, the nervous system remains locked in urgency. Over time, this leads to exhaustion, spiritual fatigue, and identity drift.Through the lens of Identity-Level Recalibration (ILR), Julie reframes ambition as something that begins with identity rather than behavior. ILR is not another mindset tactic or productivity strategy. It is the root-level recalibration that makes every other tool effective again — by restoring internal alignment before action.The episode briefly returns to Viktor Frankl, whose work in logotherapy revealed that meaning organizes the nervous system differently than urgency. Frankl's life illustrates how intensity can coexist with presence, and how ambition rooted in meaning does not burn the system — it steadies it.This episode is especially supportive for leaders navigating performance pressure, burnout recovery, spiritual exhaustion, or the fear that slowing down means losing momentum.Today's Micro RecalibrationBefore taking action today, pause and ask:What am I moving toward — and what am I moving from?Let clarity guide your pace, not pressure.Team Recalibration (Leadership Extension)If you lead a team, practice this before meetings or major initiatives:Begin by orienting to purpose before performance.Name why the work matters before discussing how fast it needs to happen.Ask:“What is this in service of?”When teams are oriented to meaning, urgency softens, decisions sharpen, and ambition becExplore Identity-Level Recalibration→ Join the next Friday Recalibration Live experience → Take your listening deeper!

Ask Me How I Know: Multifamily Investor Stories of Struggle to Success
High achiever burnout often shows up as restlessness, not collapse. In this episode, Julie Holly explains why rest feels unsafe for high performers and how identity-level recalibration helps the nervous system relearn safety without speed.Why does rest feel uncomfortable — even threatening — for so many high-capacity humans?In this episode of The Recalibration, Julie Holly explores why high achievers often struggle to slow down, even after burnout, success, or external pressure has eased. For many leaders, rest doesn't feel restorative — it feels activating. The body tightens. The mind accelerates. Stillness feels wrong.This episode explains why.Drawing from nervous system science, predictive processing, and neuroception, Julie reveals how a dysregulated system can treat achievement like oxygen. When early experiences, leadership roles, or repeated responsibility taught the body that speed prevented problems and productivity created safety, the nervous system learned to equate motion with survival.The result is a familiar pattern:burnout recovery that still feels restlessdecision fatigue even during “downtime”role confusion when pressure liftssuccess without fulfillmentspiritual exhaustion masked as productivityJulie weaves in the work of Viktor Frankl, founder of Logotherapy, who discovered that when meaning anchors the nervous system, urgency loosens its grip. Frankl's insight helps reframe rest not as passivity, but as presence — a regulated state where clarity and purpose can emerge without constant speed.This episode does not offer another mindset trick or productivity hack. Instead, it introduces Identity-Level Recalibration (ILR) — not a surface-level solution, but the root-level recalibration that makes every other tool effective again. ILR helps the body relearn safety from alignment, not adrenaline.Faith-forward but invitational, this conversation reassures listeners that discomfort during rest is not failure — it's a system in transition, learning that belonging no longer has to be earned through motion.Today's Micro RecalibrationQuietly say to yourself:My body can learn safety without speed.Notice what happens in your body. No forcing. No fixing. Just awareness.Explore Identity-Level Recalibration→ Join the next Friday Recalibration Live experience → Take your listening deeper!

To learn about The Freedom Project - Click here In this episode: Queen Nefertiti appears first—regal, luminous, Egyptian headdress, blue gown, and an energetic breeze moving only around her. Her opening line establishes the theme: “I am seated fully within myself. And so are you.” The name comes through as “Nefertiti.” Viktor Frankl appears next—gentle presence, glasses, gray hair, calm smile. His identity is confirmed through the title Man's Search for Meaning. His energy is quiet but powerful, grounded in lived experience. The Core Teaching: Sovereignty as an Inner Throne Together they deliver a unified teaching: sovereignty is not granted by rulers, removed by circumstances, or earned through status. It is an ancient inheritance—a return to an inner throne. Nefertiti emphasizes that sovereignty begins when you stop “borrowing your center” from the world: stop needing external confirmation of worth stop shaping identity around approval or fear return to the “inner throne” that most people abandon early in childhood She reframes sovereignty not as independence, but as intimacy with your own essence—an unbroken connection between your being and Source. From her view, a sovereign being doesn't dominate or defend; it simply is, and life reorganizes around that state of being. Frankl complements this with his signature insight: there is an inner space no one can touch—not cruelty, misfortune, despair, or authority. Sovereignty is claimed inside limitation. He underscores the central idea: between stimulus and response is a space; in that space lies your power, freedom, and sovereignty. So sovereignty becomes: choosing meaning, response, perspective, and the story you tell—regardless of conditions. Nefertiti's “Crown” Reframed Gary asks if Nefertiti's real-life queenship was an external version of sovereignty. She explains that her outward crown was only a reflection of an already-claimed inner seat. She believed she was living political power, but from her current perspective she sees it as a frequency demonstration—energetic rulership, not domination. Her power was never her life circumstances; it was her being. Frankl and the Holocaust: Meaning, Choice, and a Larger Architecture The conversation goes deep into Frankl's experience of the Holocaust. Frankl describes the camps as the place where he discovered what cannot be taken: inner meaning and inner freedom. He says that despair killed faster than starvation, and that hope/purpose gave the body strength—because inner choice was the only remaining domain of power. He distinguishes what he believed while alive vs. what he sees now: Then: he did not view suffering as chosen; he saw it as brutal, imposed, dehumanizing, senseless. Now: he perceives a “metaphysical architecture” and soul-level intention behind events, without calling suffering “beautiful.” He frames it as purposeful at a soul level for many—sometimes as agreements, sometimes as “perfect matches” to intentions—within an intricate web of collective and personal trajectories. He clarifies it was not karmic punishment, and that the experience (for him) aligned with a pre-birth intention to test the limits of inner freedom and anchor the understanding of choice. When asked about the broader impact, he suggests the event revealed something profound to mass consciousness: resilience of spirit, the architecture of psyche, and expansions that reshaped societies—implying it catalyzed shifts toward unity and deeper human awareness. A particularly provocative point arises: his “now” perspective suggests even figures viewed as villains are still part of the same larger consciousness exploration—equal in the sense of soul-level value—though he acknowledges his human-life perspective experienced it as far beyond “villainy.” Nefertiti and Christy: Ease of “Merge” and Soul Lineage Nefertiti repeatedly indicates an unusually easy energetic merge with Christy—suggesting a vibrational or lineage resonance. She also clarifies that in her earthly life she ruled in an equal partnership (a “true dyad”) rather than as a subordinate consort. Ancient Sleep Pattern Download Gary asks about sleep in Nefertiti's era. She describes a biphasic sleep rhythm: two sleeps with a calm waking period between—often communal, practical, intimate, and even sacred. The “midnight waking” was considered normal and a time when the veil was thin and the mind receptive. She connects this to modern spiritual waking patterns (often 2–3 a.m.) and suggests artificial light disrupted humanity's natural wisdom of the night. Slavery: Historical Context and Perspective Asked about slavery, Nefertiti frames it as a normalized social institution in her era, not a personal moral crusade. She claims it was not racially defined in her context and that slaves had certain legal rights (marriage, property, potential freedom). She acknowledges that from a higher perspective no being can possess another, but she did not fully awaken to that truth while living. She also challenges modern moral superiority as sometimes “convenient,” encouraging judgment with an awareness of historical evolution. Frankl's Logotherapy Reframed by Present Awareness Christy asks about logotherapy and meaning. Frankl offers a “then vs. now” refinement: Then: life has meaning and your task is to find it; meaning comes through purpose, responsibility, and choice. Now: life does not contain meaning as a hidden object; meaning is generated by consciousness in the moment.He says presence is the true source of meaning—not achievement, mission, sacrifice, or suffering. Meaning is not in what you do, but in how fully you inhabit the moment. Closing Ceremony: “Returning to the Throne” The episode culminates in a guided ceremony. Participants see unique illuminated symbols beneath their stone seats—geometric codes “to the soul”: lotus-like patterns, crystalline lattices, star clusters, spirals, ancient scripts, light-language signatures. Then, behind each person, a chair of light appears—unique, elegant—described not as an ego throne but a “throne of inner governance.” Nefertiti leads the ritual: stand, turn, and sit into the seat you abandoned when you believed the world had authority over you. The intention is embodiment: ruling your meaning, perception, response, and inner calm. The key line: “No one may unseat you but yourself.” They frame it as remembrance, not a gift granted by them. Afterward, Gary shares he perceived a merkaba geometry beneath his seat, and Christy notes a palpable energetic shift, including Nefertiti's strong presence “slipping in.”
In this first Faith in Action Friday episode, Lessons in Faith from Viktor Frankl, I share how Viktor Frankl's experience in the worst human conditions helped me reconnect with my own faith. Not religion, not routine, but real faith in meaning, faith in people, and faith in myself. Frankl's story reminds us that even when everything is taken from us, we still have the power to choose our response. In this short reflection, we explore people, process, and progress through the lens of faith and consider where a little trust could lighten the load we carry.Key Points:Faith is not ceremony, it is connection and trustMany people have lost faith in something larger than themselvesFrankl's story shows the strength of choice in the middle of sufferingFaith reconnects us to purpose, people, and ourselvesToday's consideration invites you to notice where faith could help you breathe easierListener consideration:Where in your life have you been carrying the weight alone when a little faith could lighten the load?Closing message:People first, process aligned, progress together.Own your mind, move your body, anchor your spirit.
In this episode of Paradigm Shifting Books, Stephen and Britain Covey dive into the profound teachings of Viktor Frankl, the legendary Austrian psychiatrist and Holocaust survivor. This episode marks the first in the Legendary Series, where the two highlight timeless authors whose ideas have had a lasting impact. Frankl's Man's Search for Meaning serves as the foundation for a deep exploration of how suffering can be endured when individuals find meaning in it.Frankl's insights are especially relevant in today's world, as they demonstrate that even in the darkest circumstances, the human spirit has the power to choose its response. He shows that purpose can provide a lifeline through suffering. Whether navigating personal challenges or seeking deeper fulfillment, Frankl's wisdom offers transformative guidance.This episode explores two of the most impactful paradigms from Frankl's work, examining the power of personal freedom in choosing one's response and the essential role that meaning plays in survival.What We Discuss[00:00] – Introduction to the Legendary Series[02:34] – Who is Viktor Frankl?[03:24] – The Freedom to Choose Your Attitude[06:42] – The Power of the Gap Between Stimulus and Response[13:10] – Finding Meaning in Suffering[15:04] – The Importance of ActionNotable Quotes[05:08] " Everything can be taken from a man, but one thing, the last of the human freedoms.

In today's episode, Dr. Killeen continues his reflections on Man's Search for Meaning by Viktor Frankl, focusing on one powerful idea: while we can't always control our circumstances, we can always control our response. He unpacks Frankl's advice to “live as if you were living for the second time,” challenging us to approach daily choices with perspective and wisdom. Whether it's handling a tough team conversation or staying calm when the day unravels, this mindset can transform how we lead, work, and live.To learn more about Dr. Killeen and his two-day event in Lincoln, NE or to connect with him, check out www.AddisonKilleen.com.
