"What if your biggest career breakthrough started with a failed dream?" In this compelling episode of Kent Hance: The Best Storyteller in Texas, Kent sits down with Vicki Hollub, the trailblazing CEO of Occidental Petroleum (Oxy) and the first woman to lead a major U.S. oil company. From her humble beginnings in Bessemer, Alabama, to commanding global energy operations, Vicki shares a deeply personal and inspiring journey of grit, perseverance, and vision. Listeners will be captivated by stories of: Her father's relentless pursuit of carpentry perfection and how it shaped her work ethic. Her mother's magnetic personality and GED triumph, teaching Vicki the power of human connection. A surprising pivot from music to mineral engineering, sparked by a French horn and a brutally honest professor. Her eye-opening assignments in Russia, Venezuela, and Ecuador, revealing the universal values shared across cultures. The bold moves that led to Oxy's dominance in the Permian Basin, and the visionary leadership of Steve Chazen and Armand Hammer. Facing gender bias head-on in the field, and the importance of having advocates—not just mentors—in your corner. With memorable quotes like, “Sometimes we don't tell people how impactful they are to us until they pass away,” and “Trust is such a powerful thing,” this episode is a masterclass in leadership, resilience, and staying true to your values. Whether you're a student, a professional, or just someone who loves a good story, this episode will leave you inspired and energized.
Joseph Schultze's life looked nothing like the path that would eventually lead him toward prison. Growing up in Binghamton, New York, he had a loving home — but also parents battling cocaine addiction. Forced to take care of them while still a teenager, Joseph dropped out of high school and developed crippling anxiety. A car accident became the turning point that pulled him into painkillers, harder drugs, and a spiral of crime that racked up multiple larceny charges. Facing years behind bars, Joseph took a chance on New York's infamous shock program — a grueling alternative to prison designed to break inmates down physically and mentally. #AddictionRecovery #PrisonStories #ShockProgram #OvercomingAddiction #TrueCrimePodcast #AddictionAwareness #LifeAfterPrison #RecoveryJourney Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ Get 50% off the Magic Mind offer here: https://www.magicmind.com/IANB50. #magicmind #mentalwealth #mentalperformance Presented by Tyson 2.0 & Wooooo Energy: https://tyson20.com/ https://woooooenergy.com/ Use code LOCKEDIN for 20% OFF Wooooo Energy Buy Merch: http://www.ianbick.com/shop Timestamps: 00:00 Introduction & Early Addiction 00:50 Meet Joe: Hometown and Upbringing 02:00 Parents' Punk Rock Past & Family Struggles 04:04 Childhood Stories 07:00 Parents' Arrest 09:45 Family History & Normalcy Amidst Chaos 12:26 Dreams for the Future & Sports 13:51 Struggles in School and Dropping Out 14:44 Hitting Rock Bottom in High School 17:17 The GED, New School, and Finding Purpose 18:35 Early Jobs & Anxiety Takes Over 19:37 Battling Severe Anxiety and Isolation 21:18 Emerging from Anxiety 22:26 Family Crises and New Responsibilities 23:54 Balancing Business, Love, and Parental Care 27:32 Becoming a Parent: Breaking the Cycle? 32:30 The Accident That Changed Everything 36:56 Raising a Daughter 40:40 Understanding His Parents 42:58 Losing Prescription Access 45:39 Descent Into Heroin and Selling Possessions 47:59 From Using to Dealing & Living the Fast Life 52:40 Boosting: Shoplifting to Survive 57:07 Life of Boosting: Escalation and Arrests 01:04:04 Legal Trouble: Juggling Charges and Addiction 01:11:49 The Downward Spiral: High-Speed Chases & More Crime 01:18:19 Identity Theft & First Long Jail Stint 01:26:32 Jail, Withdrawal, and Hitting Bottom 01:36:08 Back to the Streets: Meth, Cars & Escalation 01:42:17 Caught Again: The End of Bonnie & Clyde 01:44:55 State Time: Programs & Military Boot Camp 01:56:41 Shock Program: Getting Broken Down to Build Up 02:08:08 Completing Shock & The Path to Recovery 02:13:13 Staying Sober, Rebuilding Life & Family 02:20:00 Lessons Learned & Final Thoughts 02:25:52 Outro & Gratitude Powered by: Just Media House : https://www.justmediahouse.com/ Creative direction, design, assets, support by FWRD: https://www.fwrd.co Learn more about your ad choices.

Alkohol ist tief in unserer Gesellschaft verankert. Ein Glas zum Entspannen nach der Arbeit, ein Sekt zum Anstoßen, ein Drink, um den Kopf auszuschalten. Oft sehen wir darin nur Genuss, doch dahinter steckt oft eine leise Flucht vor uns selbst. Für einen Moment wird der innere Lärm leiser, Sorgen und Ängste treten in den Hintergrund. Aber dieser Effekt ist trügerisch. Medizinisch ist längst klar: Selbst moderater, regelmäßiger Konsum kann Gehirnstrukturen verändern, die Stressanfälligkeit erhöhen und das Risiko für psychische wie körperliche Erkrankungen steigern. Eine im British Medical Journal veröffentlichte Studie zeigt, dass bereits geringe Mengen Alkohol langfristig das Gehirn schädigen können - besonders in Regionen, die für Gedächtnis, Entscheidungsfindung und emotionale Stabilität zuständig sind. Zudem erhöht Alkohol die Ausschüttung des Stresshormons Cortisol, was Schlaf, Erholung und innere Balance nachhaltig stören kann. Diese Podcast Folge beleuchtet, warum der scheinbar harmlose Griff zum Glas mehr mit Stress, Angst und innerer Unruhe zu tun hat, als wir wahrhaben wollen und wie wir aus diesem schleichenden Kreislauf aussteigen können. Wenn du bereit bist, die wahren Ursachen für innere Anspannung, Sorgen und Stress anzugehen, begleite ich dich in meinem Performance Coaching. Gemeinsam entwickeln wir Strategien, um Körper und Geist zu stärken - für echte Ruhe, mehr Energie und nachhaltige Lebensqualität, ganz ohne den Umweg über Alkohol. https://andreas-trienbacher.com/coaching/ _______________________________
In dieser Folge steigen Gregor Münch und Duri Bonin tief ins Herz der Strafverteidigung: Soll eine beschuldigte Person Aussagen machen – oder lieber schweigen? Im Gespräch beleuchten Gregor und Duri anhand konkreter Situationen die Risiken unüberlegter Aussagen und den Stellenwert des Schweigerechts in der Schweizer Strafprozessordnung. Dabei geht es nicht nur um juristische Normen, sondern auch um Psychologie, Protokollierungsprobleme und asymmetrische Machtverhältnisse im Ermittlungsverfahren. Im Zentrum stehen Fragen wie: - Was bedeutet das Schweigerecht in der Schweiz – und für wen gilt es? - Warum kann eine Aussage selbst für Unschuldige gefährlich sein? - Weshalb sollte man gerade am Anfang eines Verfahrens meistens keine Aussagen machen – unabhängig von der Schuldfrage? - Welche Rolle spielen nonverbale Kommunikation und Protokollierung? - Warum ist das Gedächtnis ein schlechter Verbündeter unter Druck? - Wann – wenn überhaupt – ist der richtige Zeitpunkt für eine Aussage? - Welche Besonderheiten gelten bei Vier-Augen-Delikten oder bei Haftsituationen? - Was ist der Unterschied zwischen einer beschuldigten Person und einer Auskunftsperson – und wie wirkt sich das auf die Aussagepflicht aus? Zentrale Aussagen: - Schweigen ist kein Schuldeingeständnis, sondern ein fundamentales Verteidigungsrecht. - Aussagen unter Druck, ohne Aktenkenntnis oder ohne juristische Begleitung, bergen hohe Risiken – selbst für Unschuldige. - Protokollierungen sind nie neutral – sie sind eine juristische Übersetzung, in der Missverständnisse entstehen können. - Die Komplexität der Einvernahmesituation (Dolmetscher, Haftschock, fehlendes Vertrauen) muss stets mitgedacht werden. - Eine einzige, durchdachte und gut vorbereitete Aussage ist meist besser als viele unstrukturierte Wortmeldungen. Ein Muss für alle, die sich mit Strafverfahren befassen – sei es als Betroffene, Verteidiger:innen, Jurastudierende oder einfach aus Interesse am Recht.

Was war noch mal das Thema? Ach ja – Insel des Vergessens! In dieser Folge nehmen wir euch mit auf eine kalifornische Gedächtnisreise mit Justus, Peter und Bob – und nein, wir haben nicht vergessen, warum wir genau diese Folge besprechen: Sie ist der Gewinner unseres Folgen-Votings! Also bevor auch wir alles vergessen (inklusive dem, was ein Fragezeichen überhaupt ist), haben wir uns sofort hingesetzt, um über André Marx' Folge 186 der drei ??? zu reden. Freut euch auf Spannung, Palmen, Paranoia – und ein paar sehr seltsame Erinnerungslücken. Vielleicht war Olaf einfach nur hungrig? Vielleicht war Tom zu lange im falschen Film? So hat Sebbo das Stroh gelassen? Vielleicht… ach, hört einfach selbst.
"Wie lange sollte ich Q10 bzw. PQQ einnehmen, bis sich erste Effekte zeigen?" "Empfehlt ihr eher eine kurweise Einnahme oder eine dauerhafte Anwendung?" "Können Q10 oder PQQ Nebenwirkungen wie Unruhe, Schlafprobleme oder Magenbeschwerden verursachen?" "Was sagt die Studienlage zur Wirkung von Q10 und PQQ bei Long-COVID?" "Steigert Q10 messbar die Ausdauer, Kraft oder Regeneration?" "Gibt es wissenschaftliche Hinweise darauf, dass PQQ positiv auf das Gedächtnis wirkt?" – vielen Dank für Eure Fragen zu unserer aktuellen Episode "Zelluläre Energie: Wie Coenzym Q10 & PQQ Deine Zellkraftwerke (Mitochondrien) stärken". Matthias Baum aus dem HEALTH NERDS Wissenschaftsteam liefert hier in der Sprechstunde Antworten. -- Zur Hauptfolge: Müdigkeit, Antriebslosigkeit, mentale Erschöpfung – viele Menschen fühlen sich dauerhaft energielos, ohne dass eine klare Ursache erkennbar ist. Die Wahrheit ist: Häufig beginnt der Energiemangel dort, wo wir ihn nicht sehen können – in unseren Zellen. In dieser HEALTH NERDS Folge schauen wir dorthin, wo unsere Energie wirklich entsteht: in den Mitochondrien – den Kraftwerken unserer Zellen. Denn Energie entsteht nicht einfach durch Schlaf oder Nahrung – sondern tief im Inneren unseres Körpers, in einem hochkomplexen biochemischen Prozess. Zwei Stoffe, die in diesem Zusammenhang besonders spannend sind: Coenzym Q10 (Ubichinon) – ein körpereigener Stoff, der eine Schlüsselrolle in der mitochondrialen Energieproduktion spielt. Und PQQ (Pyrrolochinolinchinon) – ein relativ neu entdecktes Molekül, das die Neubildung von Mitochondrien anregen und bestehende vor oxidativem Stress schützen kann. Gemeinsam mit Gesundheitswissenschaftler Matthias Baum klären wir: Wie lässt sich zelluläre Energie wissenschaftlich erklären – und gezielt unterstützen? Was sagen aktuelle Studien zur Wirkung von Q10 und PQQ – etwa bei chronischer Erschöpfung, Long-COVID oder altersbedingtem Leistungsabfall? Welche Dosierungen gelten als sinnvoll? Und wie passen Q10 und PQQ in den immer wichtiger werdenden Bereich der Longevity-Forschung?

Why do students procrastinate? Are there any benefits to procrastination? How does procrastination affect the college admissions process? What are the three types of college procrastinators?

She provides more information on the Trellis Strategies Student Financial Wellness Survey, a free resource to higher ed institutions that allows them to benchmark key student financial wellness indicators to drive institutional change, strengthen student enrollment efforts and improve student satisfaction.

Es hat nicht gereicht: Deutschlands Fußballerinnen scheitern im EM-Halbfinale an Spanien. Almuth und Roman sprechen danach in einer spontanen Live-Folge vor dem Frauenteam der Sportfreunde Gechingen, die ihren Besuch des Spiels in Zürich einem Gewinnspiel zu verdanken haben. Das Turnier der DFB-Frauen bewertet Almuth positiv, das Erreichen des Halbfinals als Erfolg. Besonders ein Umstand ist ihr als „besonders wertvoll“ im Gedächtnis. Mit der Gesamtentwicklung unter Bundestrainer Christian Wück ist sie dagegen noch nicht zufrieden. In den vergangenen Monaten „gab es viele Höhen und Tiefen in den Spielen“, sagt Almuth. Roman meint, dass im Turnier auch „viele Unwägbarkeiten“ hinzukamen.

“Religion that is pure and undefiled before God the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained from the world.” – James 1:27 (ESV) You've probably heard this verse if you've ever been to an adoption or foster care training, attended a conference that discussed child welfare, or even just sat through your fair share of sermons. The message of this verse couldn't be clearer: God cares deeply about the most vulnerable, and we should too! My guests for this conversation know all about this calling and are here to talk about what it can look like in practice. David and Julie Zimmer have been married for 15 years and are parents to four children together—three by birth and one through foster care. David is the Head of Production and Promotion at Sovereign Grace Music in Louisville, KY. Julie volunteers at BSide U 4 Life, a local pregnancy care center in downtown Louisville, where she supports vulnerable families by offering childcare to parents attending GED, parenting, and Bible classes. David and Julie are passionate about foster care and dedicated to standing in the gap for children and families in need. In this episode, you'll hear about the emotional challenges that come along with fostering, the importance of investing in your marriage, the necessity of acknowledging our limitations, and much more.

In this inspiring episode, George Halford sits down with Zach Gant—a native of Hilham, TN whose early life spiraled into sports, crime, and addiction, landing him behind bars three times by age 18 and labeled the county's second‑largest drug dealer. Zach shares the crushing toll of his substance abuse and addiction on his mind and relationships, revealing how a SWAT raid became the wake‑up call that led him to get clean, earn his GED, and graduate college with a perfect 4.0. Inspired by his father's work as a respiratory therapist and driven by his newfound faith, he launched his own business. But the battle wasn't over—Zach opens up about how pride, an ADD diagnosis, and five years hiding a cocaine habit nearly destroyed his marriage before faith and honesty helped them heal and guided him into his calling to preach and later founded a church and- which guided him to open his "Struggle Bus" Food Truck.

The signposts that mark where you've been and how far you've come?In this deeply personal episode, Scott, Jim, and Keith dive into the concept of personal milestones—those significant markers that represent key moments in our individual paths. Through heartfelt storytelling, the hosts reveal their most meaningful achievements and the life lessons learned along the way.Scott shares the powerful full-circle moment of wrestling professionally in the same Tennessee venue where he watched his first match as a child—a testament to perseverance and childhood dreams realized. Jim opens up about becoming a father at 40 after 13 years of marriage when he and his wife had nearly given up hope, now navigating raising a kind-hearted son in a sometimes harsh world. Meanwhile, Keith reveals his triumph over an educational system that failed him, and how obtaining his GED represented not just academic achievement but personal vindication.The conversation expands to explore other significant milestones—from military service to homeownership after years in trailer parks—while acknowledging a friend's one-year sobriety anniversary. Throughout, the hosts emphasize that milestones differ for everyone, with each person's journey uniquely their own.What emerges is a powerful reminder that whether big or small, every achievement deserves recognition. As the hosts put it, "Be proud of what you did in life, man, even the smallest things matter."

Wales slump to a disappointing defeat against Japan in the Land of the Burning Sun — and the Attacking Scrum is back to pick through the wreckage. Ged is joined by Mighty Murph, fresh from his travels in Canada, to ask: How bad was that performance, really? Can Wales turn it around for the second test? We also check in on the British & Irish Lions, who just about edged past the Brumbies and Waratahs. Are the cracks starting to show? And who's putting their hand up for Test selection?

Growing up in the gritty industrial town of Middlesbrough, England, Gerald “Ged” Hogg was told he wouldn't amount to much. Determined to prove otherwise, he left town at the first opportunity, embarking on a global journey as a chef aboard cruise ships and top-tier hotels and restaurants. Ged eventually settled in Australia, where he spent most of his adult life with his wife. After more than 40 years of marriage, the couple divorced, prompting Ged to rethink his future. Faced with Australia's high cost of living, he began exploring more affordable, tropical destinations in Asia. His search ultimately led him to the laid-back seaside town of Hua Hin, Thailand—where he now lives happily. Tune in to Episode 213 of Retire There with Gil & Gene to discover what makes Ged's life in Hua Hin so fulfilling. Gerald Hogg is also a prolific author, with 14 books to his name.
