Tait Fletcher on Jiu-Jitsu, Truth, Persistence, and Healing Pete Deeley interviews Professor Tait Fletcher about how combat sports shaped his life and character. Fletcher traces his path from Dog Brothers stick fighting to early Jiu Jitsu training in the 1990s, learning from figures including Arlan Sanford, Amal Easton, later also receiving a black belt from Eddie Bravo. He describes competing widely, fighting in MMA, training with notable fighters, and appearing on The Ultimate Fighter Season 3, emphasizing Eddie Bravo's systematic coaching. The conversation focuses on jiu-jitsu as a source of truth, humility, community, and accelerated learning, stating that teammates improve together through generosity rather than ego. Fletcher discusses plateaus, staying the course, finding joy in training, and how a severe head injury in 2019 led him to rely on Jiu Jitsu, discipline, curiosity, and community to recover and re-engage with life, advocating responsibility, eliminating complaints, and consistent action toward one's destiny. 00:00 Welcome and Introduction 00:50 Why Combat Sports 02:04 Dog Brothers to Groundwork 03:54 Early BJJ and First Coaches 05:08 Competition and Breakthroughs 06:16 Black Belts and LA Move 09:55 Jiu Jitsu Shaves Time 11:02 Truth and Gym Culture 15:57 Ego Checks and Mentors 25:09 Injury Recovery and Resilience 28:24 Curiosity and Healing Forward 30:45 Act Reflect Repeat 32:04 Life Is A Beta Test 32:26 Jiu Jitsu Finds The Path 33:02 The Artist Roadmap 35:32 Create For Yourself 36:37 Stay Ready For Opportunity 37:42 Curiosity Meets Faith 40:16 Suffer Well In Training 44:37 Resist Complaining 47:18 Move A Muscle 49:02 Everyone Is An Artist 53:20 Jiu Jitsu And Presence 55:29 Grandparent Presence Lessons 01:00:46 Gratitude And Goodbye

Text us with topic or guest suggestions!Advisory programs. It seems we either love them – or dread them. The same goes for our students. David and Audrey have encountered a lot of different advisory programs over the years and at various schools, but never one that is as comprehensive and as in tune with all of its stakeholders as the one at the International School of Bangkok. In this show we chatted with Andy Vaughan, Dean of Students at ISB and head architect of their advisory program. Andy is a Kiwi who has been living overseas with his family for the past 20 years teaching and leading in South East Asia. Currently working as the High School Dean of Students at International School Bangkok, Andy was previously the Athletics Director at ISB and in the past has taught Physical Education, Science, Health and Outdoor Education. He is passionate about establishing systems in schools that proactively ensure we support student well being to ensure all students feel like they belong and are cared for.Our guiding question was: “How can schools create effective advisory programs?”Here are some topics covered in this episode:Definition and Purpose of an Advisory ProgramThe Importance and Benefits of Having an Advisory ProgramPossible Settings and Locations for Conducting Advisory SessionsKey Participants in Designing the Advisory ProgramScheduling: When Advisory Sessions Typically OccurInsights and Lessons Learned from Designing and Implementing Advisory ProgramsResources shared in this episode: CASEL for SELRULER Approach for SELGeelong Grammar School - Positive Education/Psychology approach to wellnessMario Platform Wellness@ES - One approach to integrating wellness at the elementary school level Supporting Episodes: The Role of Dean of Students -- A Key Piece of the SEL-Academics Puzzle: Meet Andy Vaughan (Ep 83)Fostering Lasting Change in Schools: Four Factors to Consider, With Jim Reese (Ep 81)Get Well Soon(ish)!

In the season‑opening episode of Silicon Ranch Radio for 2026, host Nick de Vries sits down with Ann Will, founder and CEO of Groundwork Renewables, to explore why certainty is the cornerstone of building a durable solar business. From resource assessment and PV soiling to hail resilience and module testing, Ann shares how high‑quality, trusted data enables confident decisions across development, operations, financing, and insurance. The conversation traces Groundwork's role in shaping utility‑scale solar from its earliest days and examines how rigor, consistency, and trust turn risk into long‑term value. For anyone focused on building resilient, high‑performing solar assets, this episode makes the case that certainty isn't optional — it's essential.

One Pole = Endless Possibilities. Why do we overcomplicate our riding, when often the biggest breakthroughs come from doing less?! In this episode of Sunday Strides, Lorna challenges you to strip things right back. No fancy setups. No complicated grids. No elaborate plans. Just one pole, placed on the ground, and a willingness to get creative. Back to Basics to Move Forward Inside Connection this quarter, the theme is ground poles. But instead of building complex exercises, Lorna suggests starting with the simplest possible version: a single pole. Because when you remove the overwhelm, you create space for clarity. And clarity leads to progress. Your Challenge This Week: Place one pole on the ground and explore what you can do with it. Groundwork around it Lateral movements Stride adjustments Riding straight lines with intention Raising it slightly for core strength The possibilities are endless when you stop waiting for the "perfect setup." Take Action This Week Set up one pole. Get creative with how you use it. Film a short clip. Reflect on what you notice. Then head over to the Daily Strides Podcast Online Community and let us know how it went https://facebook.com/groups/dailystridespodcast

Donald Trump isn't hiding his corruption anymore—he's broadcasting it. But why is the media failing to see the threat right in front of them?In this video, Marc Elias breaks down how Donald Trump has fundamentally changed the rules of American politics by "saying the quiet part out loud." While traditional media outlets are still hunting for secret scandals and cover-ups (the "Watergate mindset"), Trump is openly dismantling democratic norms, demanding loyalty, and cheating in the public square.Marc explains why this "open authoritarianism" confuses the press, how it creates a permission structure for other GOP officials to break the law, and why this specific type of public corruption poses the greatest threat to free and fair elections in 2026 and beyond.Support Democracy Docket's mission:https://newsletters.democracydocket.com/youtubeFollow Democracy Docket:Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/democracydocket.comInstagram⁠: https://instagram.com/democracydocketFacebook⁠: https://facebook.com/democracydocketX/Twitter⁠: https://twitter.com/DemocracyDocketTikTok⁠: https://tiktok.com/@democracydocketThreads: https://www.threads.net/@democracydocket00:00 Trump's Blatant Public Corruption00:57 Stop Saying He “Said the Quiet Part Out Loud” 02:29 Cheating in Public — And Bragging About It05:23 Why the Media Doesn't Know How to Cover This 08:58 No Cover-Up, No Consequences? 12:31 Why This Is So Dangerous for Elections 15:24 Undermining Free and Fair Elections — Out Loud 18:39 Laying the Groundwork to Take Over Voting 21:16 We Cannot Let This Be Normalized24:05 The Sycophant Olympics Inside the Administration 28:07 What “The Right People Voting” Really Means 31:37 Who Are the “Right Leaders”? 34:04 The Power Republicans Don't Have36:09 Believe What He's Telling You 39:18 What We Must Do Before November

Thank you to our sponsors! Figure Crypto Tax Girl Are bitcoiners underestimating the quantum threat to Bitcoin? That's the question Castle Island Ventures Partner Nic Carter has posed with some recent posts gauging the views of several leading Bitcoin developers on quantum computing. To help answer the question, Unchained reached out to Ethereum Foundation Researcher Justin Drake and Michigan University Professor Chris Peikert. In this episode, Justin and Chris, who is one of the foremost experts on lattice cryptography, break down the quantum computing threat to crypto and the potential timelines. Justin theorizes that Bitcoin developers may not be incentivized to talk about the quantum computing risk while still saying that a number of smart people are already taking it seriously and that may be enough. Conversely, Chris highlights the constraints that come with uncertainty around risks and timelines. Listen to find out what they conclude. Plus, could AI do crypto in before quantum computers?

AI isn't just replacing jobs anymore — it's starting to hire humans.In this episode of VC10X, we break down two viral projects that reveal where AI agents are really headed: one where AI agents rent humans to execute real-world tasks, and another that functions as a social network built exclusively for AI agents.These aren't gimmicks. They're early signals of how labor, coordination, and intelligence may evolve in an AGI world.We explore: • Why AI agents need humans to operate in the physical world• How agent-to-agent social networks accelerate collective intelligence• What “humans as execution layers” actually means• The new startup categories this unlocks• Why AGI may emerge as a network, not a single model• What fund managers and investors should be paying attention to nowIf you care about AI, AGI, venture capital, and how human labor fits into a machine-driven future — this episode is for you.LINKSPrashant Choubey - https://www.linkedin.com/in/choubeysahabSubscribe to VC10X newsletter - https://vc10x.beehiiv.comSubscribe on YouTube - https://youtube.com/@VC10X Subscribe on Apple Podcasts - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/vc10x-investing-venture-capital-asset-management-private/id1632806986Subscribe on Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/7F7KEhXNhTx1bKTBFgzv3k?si=WgQ4ozMiQJ-6nowj6wBgqQVC10X website - https://vc10x.comFor sponsorship queries reach out to prashantchoubey3@gmail.comSUBSCRIBE FOR MOREVC10X breaks down the most important stories in finance, tech, and markets every week.

In this live Q and A, we talk about rider straightness and symmetry and why it is such an ongoing conversation for every horse and rider. This session blends rider position, training priorities, and a deeper look at how groundwork supports both safety and progress.Straightness Begins With SupplenessWe discuss why straightness cannot be forced. Bend and suppleness have to come first, whether you are working from the ground or under saddle. Without that foundation, riding straight often creates tension instead of balance.Groundwork as a Foundation and Safety NetGroundwork plays a bigger role than many riders realize. It can help prevent accidents, give you options when something feels off, and allow you to address connection, bend, and mental focus before getting on. Groundwork also helps you safely manage your horses energy.Sitting to the InsideA key part of this Q and A focuses on rider symmetry, especially sitting to the inside seat bone. We talk about why this matters on circles, in lateral work, and in the canter.Progress Over PerfectionStraightness is something every horse and rider continues to refine over time. Awareness, patience, and consistent basics make the biggest difference.Thank you so much for being here and for all the thoughtful questions.Happy Riding,AmeliaPS If you have not already, make sure to RSVP for tomorrow's groundwork webinar. We will be diving deeper into how groundwork supports safety, connection, and better rides overall.

About the Show:“I hope there's silver buckshot… a lot of small action in a lot of areas is what will really help us get where we need to be.” – Jessica LewallenThis episode is part of a special series supported by the Walton Family Foundation. Through their Home Region program, the Foundation is investing in the people and ideas shaping Northwest Arkansas—across housing, entrepreneurship, transportation, and leadership.In this episode of I Am Northwest Arkansas® host Randy Wilburn and architect Jessica Lewallen discuss housing, growth, and what it takes to keep Northwest Arkansas a place where people can actually afford to live.Through her work with ULI's Faithful Foundations program, the Fayetteville Housing Crisis Task Force, and as founder of Gemstone Design Studio, Jessica's tackling one of our region's biggest challenges—making sure explosive growth doesn't price people out or erase what makes this place special.You'll hear stories from Jessica's journey, practical ideas for housing solutions, and why fixing this requires everyone—homeowners, churches, policymakers, planners, and regular folks—to show up. Whether you're a longtime resident worried about preserving open spaces, a newcomer searching for affordable housing, or someone wondering how to get involved, this episode offers both wisdom and hope for building a Northwest Arkansas where the next generation can thrive.Key Takeaways:Shifting Household Needs: Nearly three-quarters of households in Northwest Arkansas are made up of two people or fewer, highlighting a need for smaller, more affordable homes, not just large family houses.Smarter Land Use & Infill: Thoughtful infill development helps preserve access to parks, farmland, and green spaces, by building density where infrastructure already exists—instead of sprawling into new areas.Transportation's Hidden Costs: Affordable housing isn't just about rent or mortgages—long commutes and car dependency mean Northwest Arkansans face combined housing and transportation costs rivaling larger metro areas.Local Action, Local Solutions: Real change comes from community-led efforts—whether it's homeowners building accessory dwelling units (ADUs), churches repurposing land, or neighbors engaging in city committees.Education Fuels Empowerment: Programs like ULI's READY and Groundwork's Chats help citizens gain the knowledge to shape housing policy, dispelling myths and fostering supportive, effective advocacy.All this and more on this episode of the I Am Northwest Arkansas® podcast.Important Links and Mentions on the Show*Jessica Lewallen, Gemstone Design StudioEmail: jessica@gemstonedesignstudio.com

Summary In this 12-Step Podcast Series, Mike Koch and Jim McLintock dive into the emotional complexities surrounding the concept of making amends. They encourage listeners to reflect on the feelings associated with unmade amends and the impact of holding onto resentment. The discussion emphasizes the importance of recognizing these feelings and exploring the paths they lead us down, ultimately guiding towards emotional healing and personal growth. This step involves making a list of those we have harmed and having the willingness to make amends. TakeawaysReflecting on unmade amends can evoke strong emotions.Holding onto resentment can affect our life paths.It's important to recognize feelings associated with harm.Not everyone will make amends, and that's okay.Letting go of negative feelings is a crucial step.Understanding the damage caused by unresolved issues is vital.Exploring these feelings can lead to personal growth.Emotional healing often requires confronting painful memories.The journey of forgiveness is personal and unique.Recognizing where these feelings manifest in our lives is essential.“Be Strong, Stand Up, Speak Your Truth, and Break the Stigma.”Music by Rod Kim-Let's Play-SoundtrackFirstresponderwellness.comMentalHealthNewsRadionetwork.comPositiveconnectionsradio.comMcLintockcounseling.comhttp://www.youtube.com/@HALTandCallforBackup

Hello to you listening in Suffolk, Virginia!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds (and a bit more for an important story) for Motivate Your Monday and your host, Diane Wyzga.Each one of us - if we're determined - finds a way to compost the regrets, poor decisions, failures, shames and blames that are part and parcel of living life into something almost beyond description: personal transformation. My long time friend, podcasting colleague, disabled military vet, and avid hiker, Keith McNally, is a man finding his path to transformation.His goal? Thru-hiking the Appalachian Trail beginning on March 29, 2026, crossing 14 states on the East Coast and finishing 2,197 miles 5 months later. Some of the challenges include constant rough terrain with difficult footing, a series of steep grades, climbs and descents, as well as river crossings balanced on logs, extreme weather, insects, and rock scrambles using hands for climbing. The elevation profile of the AT over its length is akin to summiting Mount Everest from sea level and back approximately 16 times. So yes, physical fitness is a must to take on the AT; but it is mental fortitude and the ability to adapt to unforseen challenges that is key to finishing the hike.Keith's journey will be a test of perseverance, a tribute to the beauty of the natural world, and an opportunity for personal growth. Even more importantly, Keith is setting the groundwork for a non-profit foundation to help military veterans find their own Trails to Transformation. This first hike is just the beginning.  But here's something else. Keith is not walking alone. He has also been steadfastly training an indefatigable Aussie cattle dog he named Ashley after rescuing her from a shelter. Click HERE to watch a short video entitled:  Introduction to Ashley - Trail Partner and Training CompanionAs you can imagine, an expedition like this one does not come cheap. I know money is dear. And, here I am asking you to please reach deep into your pocket to give what you are able to Keith & Ashley's GoFundMe project. On the GoFundMe site you'll find all the details as well as a punch list of expenses so you can see where your contributions will go.    Click HERE to access Keith's GoFundMe, add what you can, and invite others to be part of the mission.

This week's Growing and Developing With Your Horse Q and A was a really special one, as my mom JoElyn stepped in to host it. She shared so much wisdom from her own riding journey, from choosing horses to developing bend, setting goals, and learning to truly love the horse you have at every stage.Why bend mattersJoElyn spent time explaining why bend is so foundational. Bend supports safety, helps the horse stay attentive, and allows the inside hind leg to step under and strengthen the body. True bend comes from the rib cage, not just the neck, and you can see it when the head and tail stay on the same line of the circle.Your body influences the bendShe reminded us that rider position plays a big role. If we collapse or tip, it becomes harder for the horse to bend around the inside leg. Thinking about your alignment and allowing your body to guide the bend can make your aids much clearer and more effective.Groundwork and patternsGroundwork is a powerful way to improve bend. Asking for more bend on the ground helps it show up more easily under saddle, and riding clear patterns helps keep both horse and rider organized and balanced.Goals and long term developmentThere was a thoughtful discussion about goals, from big long term dreams to small daily steps. Breaking goals down and focusing on rider position, learning, visualization, and consistency helps you make progress even when saddle time is limited.Loving the horse you haveOne of the most touching parts of this conversation was the reminder that loving your horse matters, regardless of the level. Horses can continue to grow, improve, and connect with us deeply, even as their bodies change with age.Thank you for being part of this community and for bringing so much care and thoughtfulness to your horses and your riding.Happy riding,AmeliaPS Bootcamp is coming up soon.

Hosts Renee Chiuchiarelli- LinkedIn Julie Parks - LinkedIn Published Date December 9, 2025 Episode Length ~7 minutes Episode Summary The Pitcher's Playbook for Difficult Conversations In this second episode of the Difficult Conversations series, Renee and Julie break down how to navigate tough discussions when you are the one initiating them — the Pitcher role. To make the process easier, they introduce a simple, repeatable acronym that works for any difficult conversation: GGCC Greeting: Open with appreciation and set a positive tone Groundwork: Provide context and explain why the conversation is needed Concern: State the issue clearly, respectfully, and with the “why” behind it Closing: Finish with a statement and a question to confirm alignment This framework helps you stay organized, calm, and effective, no matter how uncomfortable the topic may be. Key Learnings Structure makes difficult conversations less stressful and more productive. Appreciation (Greeting) and partnership (Groundwork) reduce defensiveness. Clear, respectful articulation of your concern keeps the conversation constructive. Ending with a clarifying question ensures you and the other person walk away aligned. Writing out the GGCC ahead of time makes a big difference in how you show up. GGCC will be used again in Episode 3, this time from the Catcher's perspective. Takeaways Difficult conversations aren't confrontations — they're opportunities to collaborate. “Respect” and “clarity” are the two qualities that make the GGCC method work. Preparing your structure ahead of time prevents misunderstandings. Tip of the Week Use the GGCC framework (Greeting, Groundwork, Concern, Closing) to prepare your next difficult conversation. It works for feedback, resource requests, conflict, and team challenges. FIO – Figure It Out (Call to Action) This week, identify one difficult conversation you've been putting off. Draft your Pitcher's script using the GGCC structure. Even if you don't deliver it right away, having it ready makes you more confident and prepared. Share your experience inside the Trade Geeks Community: Trade Geeks Resources Mentioned This episode focuses solely on the GGCC structure — no external resources.

Last night's Q and A was such a fun conversation about horse personalities and how to adjust your riding to match the horse you have. Stacie joined us live, which was a treat because many of you know her from the comments section and as a Strides member. We covered everything from reading your horse's natural tendencies to adjusting your own energy and building confidence in both young and experienced horses.Understanding personalitySome horses are hot, some laid back, and many shift depending on our energy. The big takeaway was noticing the small signs and matching your approach. Raise your energy for a dull horse. Slow everything down for a sensitive one.Groundwork builds confidenceFor green or new horses, groundwork is the place to start. Leading, bending, yielding, and responding to pressure help the horse feel safe and give you tools you can use later in the saddle. It has made a huge difference for Stacy and her boys.The basics always winWinter is the perfect time to revisit stretching, bending, rhythm, and suppleness. Going back to basics makes everything easier when you start schooling movements again.Thank you to the Dressage FoundationWe also highlighted the Dressage Foundation and the many grants that support riders. Stacie recently received the Gifted Memorial Grant, and our own “Dressage for All” Youth Fund will award its first grants this spring. Community support truly keeps our sport thriving.Thank you all for joining and for being part of this amazing community. Your questions and your stories are what make these live sessions so meaningful.Happy ridingAmeliaPS. Don't forget to RSVP for Bootcamp coming in January!

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit wisdomofcrowds.liveA few years ago, Lea Ypi was scrolling through Facebook when she came across a family photo she had never seen before. Someone had discovered a photograph of Ypi's grandparents on their honeymoon and posted it on a public Facebook group. Ypi — a philosophy professor from Albania who teaches at the London School of Economics — was dismayed by the comments on the photograph, which ranged from inaccurate to judgmental to just plain mean. Were the husband and wife in this photo Albanian aristocrats? Fascist collaborators? Victims of Communism? Responding to the trolls — as well as, as she puts it, “taking the trolls seriously” — Ypi decided to write a book reconstructing her grandparents' story. The result is Indignity: A Life Reimagined, a book which asks, among other things, what does human dignity really mean? What makes this book even more interesting is that Ypi's grandparents lived through some of the most dramatic moments in the twentieth century: the fall of the Ottoman Empire, the rise of Fascism, and World War II. Ypi joins Damir and Santiago, who want to understand Ypi's own philosophical priors. Damir wants to know where moral responsibility ends and and the structural forces of history begin. Santiago asks whether dignity, as a concept, has a metaphysical foundation. The result is a wide-ranging conversation that covers history, literature, philosophy and more.In our bonus section for paid subscribers, Santiago asks Ypi about the difference between Fascist and Communist decision-making; Damir presses Ypi on the question of free will; Ypi discusses her two-point prescription for a better Europe; Santiago asks Ypi whether it's hard to write about one's country in a foreign language; and finally, Ypi's hot take on Zohran Mamdani.Required Reading:* Lea Ypi, Indignity: A Life Reimagined (Amazon). * Lea Ypi, Free: Coming of Age at the End of History (Amazon). * Immanuel Kant, Groundwork for the Metaphysics of Morals (Amazon). * Friedrich Schiller, On the Aesthetic Education of Man (Amazon).

Thankfulness isn’t just a seasonal tradition—it’s a spiritual posture rooted deep in Scripture and woven through history. Psalm 100:4 calls us to enter God’s presence with gratitude, a theme that began long before American holidays and continues to shape the way believers respond to God’s goodness today. From Old Testament thank offerings to the Pilgrims’ courageous faith, we’re reminded that gratitude grows strongest in hearts that remember God’s faithfulness through every circumstance. Highlights Biblical thanksgiving began with offerings of gratitude long before modern celebrations. Leviticus and 2 Chronicles reveal how God invited His people to display thankfulness through worship. America’s Thanksgiving tradition is deeply influenced by the Pilgrims’ commitment to biblical truth. Despite tremendous suffering, the Pilgrims lived out 1 Thessalonians 5:18 by giving thanks in all circumstances. Historical accounts show how miraculous their survival truly was—only a fraction lived to see the first feast. The Pilgrims’ perseverance helped lay the foundation for a national day dedicated to thanking God. Leaders like Washington and Lincoln carried forward the tradition of national gratitude to the Lord.

Check out our Holiday Gift Guide—from beautifully illustrated Bibles and devotionals to novels, greeting cards, and picture books, there’s something for everyone on your list. Wrap up stories for loved ones, tuck a book into your own nightstand, and join us in celebrating the wonder of giving this Christmas! Full Transcript Below: Cultivating a Heart Full of Thanksgiving By Lynette Kittle Bible Reading: “Enter His gates with thanksgiving and His courts with praise; give thanks to Him and praise His name”—Psalm 100:4 Offering thanksgiving didn’t begin in America; it began in the Bible, taught to humankind by a loving and gracious God who is deserving and worthy of our gratitude, and to receive thankfulness that comes from hearts truly grateful for all He has done and is still doing in our lives and in our nation. Thanksgiving to God, often associated with food offerings, began in the Bible. As early as Leviticus 7:12, we read how God instructed, “If they offer it as an expression of thankfulness, then along with this thank offering they are to offer thick loaves made without yeast and with olive oil mixed in, thin loaves made without yeast and brushed with oil, and thick loaves of the finest flour well-kneaded and with oil mixed in.” Again, in 2 Chronicles 29:31, the King calls for the people to give thanks. “Then Hezekiah said, ‘You have now dedicated yourselves to the Lord. Come and bring sacrifices and thank offerings to the temple of the Lord.’ So the assembly brought sacrifices and thank offerings, and all whose hearts were willing brought burnt offerings.” America’s Thankfulness Rooted in Biblical Truth Remarkably, Thanksgiving Day in America is rooted in the biblical faith brought and carried to our land through the Pilgrims who courageously escaped Europe’s tightly held religious control to pursue freedom to worship God. Creator and Executive Producer of The Pilgrims documentary, Dr. Jerry Newcombe, follows the Pilgrims from Europe to the New World, documenting their faith and journey to America. The Pilgrims, even in the suffering they endured in Europe and after arriving in America, believed what 1 Thessalonians 5:18 urges, “Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.” Newcombe describes the harsh winter leading up to the first 1621 Thanksgiving, marked by illness, cold, and starvation. Of the eighteen women aboard the Mayflower, only four survived. As well, half the married men and ten of the twenty-nine unmarried men died. Children survived better than the adults, with seventeen of the twenty surviving the brutal conditions. Still, very few Pilgrims survived the devastating “starving times” and sickness to participate in the first Thanksgiving, enduring what 2 Corinthians 4:8 describes. “We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down but not destroyed.” As well, historian and author of The Treacherous World of the 16th Century & How the Pilgrims Escaped It: The Prequel to America's Freedom, William J. Federer, discusses facts that some may overlook, such as how miraculous it was for the Pilgrims to escape Europe and birth America. “Of the 102 Pilgrims, only 47 survived till spring,” writes Federer, “At one point, only a half dozen were healthy enough to care for the rest.” The Pilgrims Laid the Groundwork for Thanksgiving “Without the Pilgrims, Thanksgiving Day, set aside to thank God,” states Federer, “it may not have ever been established. They laid the groundwork and foundation for America to set aside a holiday to thank God.” Although not officially called Thanksgiving Day at the time, the Pilgrims were able to kick off America’s tradition of giving thanks to God with a three-day feast with the Native Americans. Devoted to a purity of the Gospel, the Pilgrims recognized the importance of thankfulness, even in the most difficult of times, understanding it as a sacrifice to God. As Psalm 116:17 directs, “I will sacrifice a thank offering to You and call on the name of the Lord. “ “Because of them,” writes Newcombe, “we have had 400 years of Thanksgiving in America, and thanks to Presidents Washington (who declared the first national day of Thanksgiving) and Lincoln (who made it a yearly event), we even celebrate it as an annual holiday.” Newcombe, who also serves as Executive Director of Providence Forum, an outreach of Coral Ridge Ministries, shares President George Washington’s declaration for a national day of Thanksgiving, “[I]t is the duty of all nations to acknowledge the Providence of Almighty God, to obey His will, to be grateful for His benefits, and humbly to implore His protection and favor.” Intersecting Faith & Life: Ask God to lead you in cultivating a heart full of thanksgiving. Begin by studying His word, spending time in prayer thanking Him for His faithfulness, and telling others of all He has done in your life.

Hello to you listening in Suffolk, Virginia!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds (and a bit more for an important story) for Motivate Your Monday and your host, Diane Wyzga.Each one of us - if we're determined - finds a way to compost the regrets, poor decisions, failures, shames and blames that are part and parcel of living life into something almost beyond description: personal transformation. My long time friend, podcasting colleague, disabled military vet, and avid hiker, Keith McNally, is a man finding his path to transformation.His goal? Thru-hiking the Appalachian Trail beginning on March 29, 2026, crossing 14 states on the East Coast and finishing 2,197 miles 5 months later. Some of the challenges include constant rough terrain with difficult footing, a series of steep grades, climbs and descents, as well as river crossings balanced on logs, extreme weather, insects, and rock scrambles using hands for climbing. The elevation profile of the AT over its length is akin to summiting Mount Everest from sea level and back approximately 16 times. So yes, physical fitness is a must to take on the AT; but it is mental fortitude and the ability to adapt to unforseen challenges that is key to finishing the hike.Keith's journey will be a test of perseverance, a tribute to the beauty of the natural world, and an opportunity for personal growth. Even more importantly, Keith is setting the groundwork for a non-profit foundation to help military veterans find their own Trails to Transformation. This first hike is just the beginning.  But here's something else. Keith is not walking alone. He has also been steadfastly training an indefatigable Aussie cattle dog he named Ashley after rescuing her from a shelter. Click HERE to watch a short video entitled:  Introduction to Ashley - Trail Partner and Training CompanionAs you can imagine, an expedition like this one does not come cheap. I know money is dear. And, here I am asking you to please reach deep into your pocket to give what you are able to Keith & Ashley's GoFundMe project. On the GoFundMe site you'll find all the details as well as a punch list of expenses so you can see where your contributions will go.    Click HERE to access Keith's GoFundMe, add what you can, and invite others to be part of the mission.

Ted Gioia warned this would be a tough week—and he wasn't kidding. Week 33 of the Immersive Humanities Project had me wrestling with three giants of philosophy: Descartes, Kant, and Spinoza. I started with Descartes' Discourse on the Method, where his famous “I think, therefore I am” felt surprisingly direct and human. His four rules for reasoning—question, divide, simplify, and review—made him seem less like an abstract philosopher and more like a kind, curious friend.Kant's Groundwork for the Metaphysics of Morals was another story. Dense and demanding, it centers on the “Categorical Imperative”: act only according to principles you'd accept as universal law. It's a moral system built purely on duty, not emotion.Then came Spinoza's Ethics, written like a geometry proof. His radical idea—that God and Nature are one—left little room for the supernatural or free will.When reading failed, I turned to the 1987 Great Philosophers series with Brian Magee, which unlocked everything. These thinkers—Continental Rationalists all—believed reason alone could uncover truth, unlike the British Empiricists who demanded evidence. It was a mentally exhausting but fascinating stretch, and next week I'm relieved to return to fiction with Goethe's The Sorrows of Young Werther.LINKTed Gioia/The Honest Broker's 12-Month Immersive Humanities Course (paywalled!)My Amazon Book List (NOT an affiliate link)CONNECTThe complete list of Crack the Book Episodes: https://cheryldrury.substack.com/p/crack-the-book-start-here?r=u3t2rTo read more of my writing, visit my Substack - https://www.cheryldrury.substack.com.Follow me on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/cldrury/ LISTENSpotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/5GpySInw1e8IqNQvXow7Lv?si=9ebd5508daa245bdApple Podcasts - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/crack-the-book/id1749793321 Captivate - https://crackthebook.captivate.fm

How well do you really know your horse? Not just how he feels under saddle, but how he is when you're not riding? This week on Sunday Strides, I'm inviting you to do something simple, but powerful. You're going to spend a few minutes each day checking your horse's vitals. Why? Because when something feels "off," knowing what's normal helps you act fast, give your vet accurate information, and be the advocate your horse needs. No riding required. No lunging. Just you, your horse, and a little extra attention. Here's Your Challenge for the Week: ✅ Take your horse's temperature (morning + evening) ✅ Count their resting breath rate ✅ Check the colour of the mucus membranes (gums or inner eyelids) ✅ Test capillary refill time ✅ Record the digital pulse in the lower leg (for all 4 legs) ✅ Run your hands down their legs and feet for lumps, swelling, and heat Do this four times this week, ideally morning and evening for 4 days, and then commit to making this part of your regular routine twice a week going forward. It takes just a few minutes, but could save you hours (or worse) later. Mentioned in the Episode
