Podcasts about Gradual

This episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosted by Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton, explores the hidden challenge many first responders face: learning to live in peace after years of running toward chaos. For those who thrive in adrenaline-filled environments, boredom, silence, or calm can actually feel unsafe. We dig into why your nervous system gets wired for chaos—and how to retrain it for lasting peace. Why Chaos Feels Like Home Years of conditioning in high-stakes environments rewires your brain (Amazon Affiliate). Adrenaline becomes addictive, making calm feel like danger. The Downside of Always Being “On” Living in hyper-vigilance damages physical and emotional health. Why restlessness, irritability, and mistrust show up during downtime. The Silent Struggle of Transitioning Off Duty Why silence at home can feel unbearable. How relationships suffer when you unconsciously seek out conflict or stimulation. Recognizing the Signs of Nervous System Overload Trouble sleeping without noise or activity. Needing constant stimulation (TV, noise, busywork). Struggling to sit still or relax without guilt. Steps to Rewire for Peace Tactical breathing and mindfulness to retrain your body's “baseline.” Gradual exposure to stillness—learning to sit in quiet without panic. Physical exercise as a healthy adrenaline release. Creating rituals that signal safety (music, routines, prayer). Seeking professional help to break cycles of nervous system dysregulation.

Attachment theory is a crucial but often misunderstood concept that significantly impacts children's wellbeing after parents separate. Understanding attachment isn't about controlling access to your child, but rather protecting their fundamental developmental needs when deciding upon post-separation parenting arrangements.• Attachment is a biological survival system ensuring children stay close to caregivers who keep them safe and help regulate emotions• Children form a hierarchy of attachments with usually one primary attachment figure who provides consistent, responsive care• Attachment develops through thousands of interactions from infancy through preschool years• When primary attachments are disrupted, children's stress hormones increase, affecting brain development• Signs of attachment disruption include regression, clinginess, sleep problems, and emotional dysregulation• The myth that "children are resilient" often justifies arrangements that harm attachment security, and negatively impact child development• Secure attachments in childhood lead to better emotional regulation, healthier relationships and improved mental health throughout life• Post-separation arrangements should prioritise maintaining the child's primary attachment while supporting other relationships• Young children generally need primary residence with their main attachment figure and shorter, frequent contact with the non-primary parent• Gradual transitions based on the child's readiness, not adult demands, best support attachment securityCheck out the Post-Separation Parenting Blueprint for comprehensive guidance on applying attachment research to real-world parenting arrangement decisions and advocating effectively for your child's needs.About Danielle Black: Danielle Black is Australia's leading specialist in child-focused post-separation parenting, helping parents cut through professional pressure and harmful myths to make decisions based on what children actually need.

China is steadily expanding its security presence in Africa through deeper military ties, weapons sales, and multinational deployments as UN Peacekeepers. In fact, China is now the largest arms supplier to Sub-Saharan Africa, according to data from the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute. There are also mounting concerns over the protection of Chinese personnel on the continent who have been regular targets of kidnapping and ransom by bandits in the DRC, Nigeria, and South Africa, among other countries. Lungani Hlongwa, editor of the China-Africa Security Radar on Substack, joins Eric & Cobus to discuss why African militaries are increasingly turning to China and away from traditional partners in the U.S. and Europe.

One of the most frequent questions we hear from district and school math leaders is:“How do I convince math educators to shift from always using the Gradual Release model to lessons that begin with rich math tasks?”This episode is inspired by a recent conversation with a district leader guiding a math task force. While some colleagues leaned on the Gradual Release of Responsibility model—“I do, we do, you do”—she wanted to prioritize curiosity, problem solving, and mathematical reasoning up front. The tension? Research on direct instruction, particularly Hattie's work, is often misinterpreted as a call to always begin math lessons with direct modeling.This is not about replacing direct instruction in math class with inquiry. It's about designing math lessons where fluency, reasoning, communication, and conceptual understanding all have a place—and where students begin with reasoning and end with precision.Listeners will hear: Why problem-based lessons and Gradual Release are not an either/or choiceHow the math three-part lesson (Minds-On, Action, Consolidation) positions explicit teaching strategicallyWhat the research really says about direct vs. dialogic instruction from John Hattie.Why starting with student sense-making deepens conceptual understanding and retention. Not sure what matters most when designing math improvement plans?

In Episode 13 last year, I covered some of what I discussed in my free webinar series, Become Your Horse's Healer.We have a replay of that episode today, so tune in to learn how to reset your expectations for your horse's health.Understanding Healing PatternsHorses usually respond to healing programs in four different ways. Some horses respond positively to a new program and show rapid improvement. Others experience a temporary worsening of their conditions as their bodies start the healing process, often marked by fatigue or increased inflammation. Some horses show initial improvement followed by a later setback, while others progress gradually.Emotional and Physical Health InterplayHealing is a complex journey that involves physical, emotional, spiritual, and mental health. In addition to addressing their physical symptoms, owners must understand the emotional aspects that might impact their horse's well-being. Challenges may arise when a horse's physical and emotional health are misaligned. Recognizing all the interconnected elements is essential for comprehensive care and successful healing.Setting Realistic Expectations and GoalsIt is essential to set realistic expectations at the start of a health journey. Each horse has a unique healing trajectory, and patience is paramount. Making rushed decisions due to having unrealistic expectations could lead to setbacks. Owners need to acknowledge their horse's individuality, taking their age, constitution, and any chronic conditions they may have into account. Horses with a more robust constitution and those at risk due to breed characteristics may respond differently. Understanding these factors allows owners to tailor their expectations and approaches accordingly. Setting achievable goals and celebrating small victories allow owners to navigate the healing process with more of a positive mindset.Addressing Obstacles to RecoveryIn some instances, despite your well-intentioned efforts, obstacles may still hinder your horse's progress. So it is crucial to identify physical and emotional sources of toxicity or address the lifestyle factors that impede the healing process. Gradual changes, observation, and responsiveness to the horse's cues help create a more effective healing environment.Chronic Nature of Diseases and Pathology Chronic diseases in horses are particularly challenging. Conditions such as side bone, ring bone, and bone remodeling in the feet or joints that show tissue changes complicate issues. Horse owners must learn to distinguish inflammation from degeneration because once tissues (especially bone) start changing, it complicates recovery. Setting realistic expectations is crucial for determining whether or not full recovery is possible. Genetic Predispositions and Melanomas Genetic predispositions, like melanomas or related conditions, impact a horse's health. (White and grey horses often have melanomas due to genetic factors.) Improvement is possible in those cases, especially when owners can recognize the genes that influence the disease expression. Managing a horse's diet, nutrition, and lifestyle is crucial for modulating genetic expression and switching off detrimental genes to mitigate their effects.Constitution and Environmental Factors The constitution of a horse is influenced by factors starting in the womb. In some horses, constitutional weaknesses show up as susceptibility to allergies or illnesses. With proper care, strengthening a horse's constitution is possible. With certain breeds, especially easy-keepers that are predisposed to conditions like insulin resistance, owners may need to tailor their expectations to incorporate genetic and environmental factors.Managing Expectations for Aging...

“My daughter says she doesn’t like being alone with her thoughts at night… so she plays music to drown them out.” In this episode of the Happy Families podcast, we explore a powerful listener question from a mum worried about her anxious child using music as a form of avoidance. Is it helpful? Harmful? And what can we do instead? We unpack the fine line between healthy distraction and long-term avoidance - and share tools to help your child build emotional strength, even in the dark. KEY POINTS Avoidance can reinforce anxiety - but sometimes, gentle avoidance is okay Music can be an effective short-term tool, but shouldn't become the only coping mechanism The risks of long-term distraction at bedtime (poor sleep, more anxiety) Strategies to help: Essential oils (yes, really—there’s research!) Gratitude practices before sleep Thought downloads/journaling to ease mental clutter Default Mode Network activity and its role in rumination Gradual tolerance toolkit—moving away from music to mindfulness Normalising and validating nighttime anxiety Parental presence and conversations to address the underlying worries QUOTE OF THE EPISODE "Sometimes kids feel like they’re swimming with metaphorical sharks. They want to get out of the water—but we know they’re just dolphins. It’s our job to keep them swimming." RESOURCES MENTIONED Chatter by Ethan Kross Research on essential oils and anxiety (referenced but not directly cited) happyfamilies.com.au Leave us a voice memo for the podcast here ACTION STEPS FOR PARENTS Let your child know their racing thoughts at night are normal—and you're there for them. Collaborate on a bedtime plan: gentle music, meditation, or calming scents. Encourage journaling or a “thought download” before bed to externalise internal chaos. Add in a nightly gratitude ritual—simple and connecting. Over time, help your child build tolerance for their thoughts without needing constant distraction. If things remain tough, reach out to a GP or psychologist for professional support. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Today, Dr. Robert Whitfield sits down for a chat with former race car driver, Danica Patrick. Danica opens up about what it was like to move to England at just 16 to chase her racing dreams, her personal experience with breast implants, and the health struggles she faced because of them. She and Dr. Whitfield discuss the road to recovery, the importance of self-care, and the need to truly listen to what your body is telling you. They also shine a light on Danica's shift into entrepreneurship and stress how important it is to raise awareness and offer support for anyone dealing with breast implant illness and similar health challenges. Bio: Danica Patrick Danica Patrick is a trail-blazing former racecar driver who smashed motorsport records: first woman to lead laps & finish top-5 at the Indy 500, first female winner of a major North American open-wheel race, and first woman to claim a NASCAR Cup Series pole, capping her career with the 2018 “Danica Double” at Daytona 500 and Indy 500. Named to TIME's “100 Most Influential People” and featured in a record 14 Super Bowl ads, Danica has since shifted gears into entrepreneurship.

Marcin - Co-founder and GTM lead at Redstone, crypto veteran since 2017 with background in quantitative economics. Previously worked at Google Cloud before founding Redstone in 2020.The Oracle Infrastructure RevolutionRedstone's Modular Architecture Redstone built a fundamentally different oracle system designed for scalability from day one. Unlike traditional models that were difficult to scale across networks and assets, Redstone uses a modular architecture with four modules—keeping three off-chain to minimize integration complexity. This design enables rapid deployment across new blockchains and virtual machines.Multi-Chain Pioneer* First oracle on many non-EVM networks including TON (Telegram), Starknet, and Fuel VM* Strategic expansion philosophy: "Go where people want us, not where we force ourselves"* 75% of company are engineers, maintaining 100% reliability with zero mispricing incidentsWhy Solana, Why NowPerfect Timing Convergence Redstone's Solana launch aligned with a critical market moment. Their partnership with Securitize to serve major tokenized funds (BlackRock BUIDL, VanEck, Apollo, etc.) coincided with Solana's emerging RWA momentum through protocols like Camino, Drift, and Jupiter.Foundation Support Meeting Lily (Solana Foundation director) at Binance Blockchain Week in Dubai catalyzed the expansion, providing technical resources and ecosystem connections for smooth integration.Real-World Assets ExplainedTwo Flagship Products* Tokenized Treasury Bills (T-Bills)* Low-risk, yield-bearing government securities* Principle should always appreciate (barring systemic USD issues)* Considered equivalent to cash in accounting (0-3 month bills)* Apollo's Diversified Credit Fund (Tokenized as ACRE)* Private credit outside traditional banking system* Example: Entrepreneur needs $10M for factory railway, banks reject due to complexity* Apollo intermediates: lenders provide capital at 8%, borrowers pay 12%, Apollo manages 4% spread* Involves real risk of default, but diversified across 100-1000 loansAccess Revolution* Traditional minimum: $5-10 million* Tokenized minimum: $50,000 (100x reduction in barrier to entry)* Global accessibility without complex traditional finance onboardingThe Technical Innovation: sACRESecurity vs. Utility Challenge ACRE is a security token, making it non-transferable and unsuitable for DeFi liquidations. Securitize created an elegant solution:* sACRE: Non-security wrapper around ACRE* Enables DeFi integration while maintaining regulatory compliance* Liquidators interact only with sACRE, never touching the underlying security* Vault system allows redemption back to USDC when neededDeFi Use Cases and Looping StrategiesThe Looping Mechanism* Deposit $1M worth of sACRE as collateral* Borrow $500K USDC (50% LTV for safety margin)* Buy more sACRE with borrowed USDC* Repeat process until hitting minimum investment thresholds* Amplify exposure while maintaining liquidation safetyRisk Considerations* Platform risk (Drift/Camino vulnerabilities)* Asset price risk (private credit can decline unlike T-Bills)* Liquidation risk if looped too aggressively* Need for proper risk management and position sizingInstitutional Adoption PathwayBaby Steps Philosophy Unlike crypto's "10x or bust" mentality, institutions take measured approaches:* Current: Basic tokenization and custody* Next: Simple lending and structured products* Future: On-chain hedge funds and complex derivativesBenefits Driving Adoption* Broader Access: Geographic and capital barriers removed* Secondary Liquidity: Instant swaps vs. 90-day redemption periods* DeFi Composability: Integration with lending, looping, structured products* Transparency: On-chain visibility vs. opaque traditional systemsMarket Lessons and Risk ManagementLearning from Terra/Anchor* Size caps prevent systemic overheating* Transparency requirements for risk assessment* Multiple audits and conservative approaches* Recognition that 20% yields were unsustainableCurrent Systemic Risks* Staking derivatives pose the largest potential systemic risk* Liquid staking tokens widely used as collateral across DeFi* Any major exploit could cascade across ecosystemFuture RoadmapImmediate Developments* Additional Solana-native stablecoin feeds* More yield-bearing asset integrations* Jupiter's "Drip/Plant" lending protocol (partnership with Ethereum's Fluid)Long-term Vision* Yield-bearing stablecoins as mass adoption driver* 4-6% yields as the "sweet spot" for user interest* Cross-chain collaborations and composability* Gradual expansion of on-chain institutional productsBuilder Ecosystem* Testing available at app.redstone.finance (Push → Solana)* Open communication channels via Telegram/Discord* Custom data feed development for specific use casesThe Bigger PictureAdoption Paradigm Shift Traditional crypto adoption focused on retail users buying NFTs and meme coins. RWA adoption brings institutional capital seeking familiar products with blockchain benefits—better access, liquidity, and composability.Global Financial Rails Redstone's vision extends beyond individual assets to creating seamless global financial infrastructure. Current traditional systems are siloed by country/region, requiring inefficient bridges. Blockchain technology enables truly global, instantaneous settlement.Competitive Collaboration The Jupiter-Fluid partnership exemplifies healthy ecosystem growth—established players collaborating rather than zero-sum competing, recognizing the early-stage nature of the overall market.

In this episode of the Rehab Science Podcast, Dr. Tom Walters discusses proximal hamstring tendinopathy (PHT), a common condition affecting athletes, particularly runners and lifters. He explains the anatomy, biomechanics, and causes of PHT, emphasizing the importance of understanding the condition as a sensitivity issue rather than inflammation or a tear. The episode covers diagnostic strategies, effective rehabilitation techniques, and treatment options, highlighting the significance of gradual loading and physical therapy in recovery. Takeaways Proximal hamstring tendinopathy (PHT) is common among active individuals. Chronic mechanical overload is a primary cause of PHT. Symptoms often worsen with activities involving hip flexion and knee extension. Diagnosis is typically clinical and does not require imaging. Physical therapy is the cornerstone of PHT treatment. Gradual resistance training is essential for tendon healing. Rest alone will not lead to healing of tendinopathies. Education and movement-based care are crucial for recovery. PHT can be frustrating but responds well to proper rehab strategies. Most individuals can return to full activity without surgery.

Summary In this episode of the Conquer Athlete Podcast, hosts Ryan Bucciantini and Jason Leydon discuss various themes surrounding fitness, mental resilience, and the importance of mindset in athletic performance. They share personal anecdotes from their experiences in the fitness community, including the origins of the D-BAP philosophy, which emphasizes mental toughness and resilience. The conversation also touches on the challenges athletes face, the significance of gradual exposure to difficult tasks, and the camaraderie built through shared fitness experiences. In this conversation, Ryan Bucciantini and Jason Leydon explore the intricacies of mental resilience, emphasizing the importance of discomfort, self-awareness, and the distinction between need and want in training. They discuss how mental toughness can be developed through intentional practices and the necessity of reflection in training. The dialogue also touches on the balance between focus and generalization in an athlete's life, the risk of burnout, and the significance of planning and prioritization in achieving long-term success.   Takeaways Mindset resilience is crucial for athletes. Quitting can lead to negative self-talk. Gradual exposure to challenges prevents burnout. The D-BAP philosophy encourages mental toughness. Community and camaraderie enhance the fitness experience. Training should be balanced to avoid overexertion. Personal anecdotes enrich the discussion on fitness. The importance of frequency in mental training. Eating habits can impact athletic performance. The evolution of fitness culture is fascinating. Mental training is akin to physical training; both require exposure to discomfort. Understanding the difference between need and want is crucial for mental resilience. Self-awareness is the foundation for building mental strength. Mental toughness can be compartmentalized but should be applied across life domains. Burnout often stems from a lack of self-knowledge and poor planning. Intentional planning can help prevent burnout and maintain balance. Reflection is essential to ensure that training intentions are met. Athletes must learn to stack their priorities to avoid neglecting other life areas. The journey to mental resilience is complex and requires ongoing effort. Creating a supportive environment can enhance mental training outcomes.
