What if life doesn't fight decay, but feeds on it?In this episode, I explore metabolic ontology, a way of seeing being, learning, and ethics as continual re-organization. Entropy, loss, and transformation aren't problems to fix; they're the medium through which life keeps composing itself.Drawing from my work in regenerative education, I look at how this shift from stability to metabolism changes everything: how we understand learning&doing, assessment, and the role of institutions. Regeneration isn't preservation; it's participation: the willingness to let forms, including our own, decompose when vitality demands it.This episode is an invitation to see education, and life itself, as becoming-through-loss: coherence renewing through change, vitality re-organizing through decay.
Canada’s agriculture minister says his trade mission to Mexico last week was about more than promoting exports — it was about laying the foundation for more cooperation as Canada, the U.S., and Mexico prepare for the upcoming review of the North American trade agreement. “We had a good week,” says Heath MacDonald, in the interview...

I love comparing fitness to marketing because the parallels are damn near identical. You can't expect abs after a few crunches, and you sure as hell can't expect dream clients to come banging down your door after one well-crafted post.Building brand momentum works exactly like building muscle. The results you're craving won't come from sprints but from showing up, week after week, with a foundation that actually supports the life (and business) you're trying to build.EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS→ The rule I made to myself 150 weeks ago that kept my workout streak going and how you can apply this same principle to your content strategy→ What "maintenance mode" actually looks like once you've done the heavy lifting—Follow me on Instagram at @pane.marketingSubscribe to my newsletter The Content Pour-Over for your brand's boost of content clarity every Wednesday!

Sprinkled through every ride, and every interaction on the ground, the half halt is one of the most powerful communication tools you'll ever use. But most riders only ever think of it in the saddle. In this Strides Revisited episode, we're rewinding to a listener-favorite that explores how the half halt begins long before you put your foot in the stirrup. You'll discover how groundwork can clarify your timing, refine your aids, and completely transform the quality of your conversations with your horse. We'll talk about… Why your thoughts are your most important aid, on the ground and in the saddle How to use body language, voice, and position to create light, responsive communication The subtle difference between a halt and a half halt (and why it matters everywhere) How to take your daily handling off autopilot and rebuild real feel and connection If you've ever struggled to “feel” when to use a half halt or what it should actually do, this episode will give you simple, practical ways to start improving today, even without riding.
There's no doubt referrals feel amazing. They're proof you're good at what you do, and there's nothing quite like hearing "so and so recommended you" in your inbox. But if referrals are your only game plan for growth, you're basically outsourcing your pipeline to luck.And that's a problem.I hear this all the time from clients who come to me when the referrals slow down or when they realize the referrals they're getting aren't actually the clients they want to work with.In this episode, I'm breaking down why referrals alone won't get you where you want to be, the psychology behind borrowed trust versus earned trust, and what needs to shift if you want to build a brand that attracts aligned clients, regardless of whether your name gets passed around or not.EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS:→ The difference between borrowed trust (referrals) and earned trust (your brand doing the work)→ Why referrals don't filter for fit, and how that keeps you stuck with "pays the bills" clients instead of dream clients→ The cost of invisibility: what happens when people try to Google you and find… nothing→ How to use content and your brand as a magnet so your pipeline is always full—Follow me on Instagram at @pane.marketingSubscribe to my newsletter The Content Pour-Over for your brand's boost of content clarity every Wednesday!—Mentioned in this episode:→ The Groundwork - 1:1 Brand Strategy Intensive
Fertility Docs Uncensored is hosted by Dr. Carrie Bedient from the Fertility Center of Las Vegas, Dr. Susan Hudson from the Texas Fertility Center, and Dr. Abby Eblen from the Nashville Fertility Center. Today's episode is EXTRA SPECIAL — it's release day for our brand-new book, The IVF Blueprint! We've spent several years putting this resource together for anyone considering or going through IVF, egg freezing, or embryo transfer, and we're thrilled to finally share it with you. In this episode, we're diving into the first half of the book: Part I and Part II. In Part I, “Laying the Groundwork,” we walk through everything to know before treatment begins — from deciding if IVF is the right path, to understanding stimulation medications (and whether they'll actually make you “crazy”), to making healthy lifestyle changes that benefit both you and your future baby. We also discuss supplements that may play a helpful role during your journey. In Part II, we move into the nuts and bolts of the IVF process itself. We cover what to expect at monitoring visits, take a detailed look at the egg retrieval, and introduce you to the key people you'll meet along the way — from embryologists and nurses to anesthesia staff and physicians. Plus, we break down pre-implantation genetic testing and explain what happens as embryos grow and develop in the lab. This episode is Part I of our book discussion — stay tuned for Part II coming soon! This podcast was sponsored by Shady Grove Fertility

Laura Hayton, Head of Business Development North at Transicon and a passionate advocate for the power of physical fitness in boosting sales performance, is with us on the show this week. Laura opens up about her personal journey, revealing how strength training helped her overcome anxiety, build resilience, and unlock a new level of professional success—all while balancing the demands of her career and being a single mother to neurodivergent twins. We explore the direct connections between physical well-being and high performance in sales, and discuss the practical steps sales professionals can take to manage stress, increase motivation, and sustain their energy—all grounded in Laura's hard-earned experience and actionable advice. Whether you're struggling to find time for self-care and looking to overcome burnout, this episode is packed with valuable strategies and inspiration to help you become the best version of yourself, both in and out of the office. Outline of This Episode [00:00] Fitness fuels professional success. [03:09] Connection between fitness and business performance. [04:45] Morning strength training as the key to daily success. [06:52] Fitness helps you keep those plates from spinning. [08:37] Consistency over intensity. [10:58] Self-care isn't selfish: strategies for avoiding negative burnout. [12:43] How to make fitness a habit. How Strength Training, Mindset, and Self-Care Fuel Sales Success For Laura, fitness wasn't always a priority. Like many, she found herself overwhelmed by anxiety, self-doubt, and the stressors of daily life—especially while raising neurodivergent twins during the uncertainty of the COVID-19 pandemic. But what began as a coping mechanism quickly turned into a transformative routine. Not only did it help her manage anxiety and self-esteem, it shifted her mindset entirely—replacing self-limiting beliefs with confidence and resilience. The results transcended the gym. Laura began embracing opportunities she once found intimidating, from public speaking to taking on challenging roles. For Laura, the focus and mental strength gained through fitness directly translated into her professional achievements. Morning Movement: Laying the Groundwork for a Winning Day A major takeaway from Laura's practice is her dedication to early morning workouts. Waking up at 5 a.m. and training by 5:30, she carves out sacred personal time before life's demands kick in. This ritual isn't just about breaking a sweat—it's a space to think creatively, set intentions, and cultivate a sense of control. “On the days that I do it, I feel in control, confident, and really ready… If I'm not doing it, my patience runs thin, and it always feels like my day just doesn't go to plan,” Laura explains. For sales professionals whose schedules can be unpredictable, this kind of intentionality can be essential for maintaining focus and motivation throughout the day. Managing Stress, Motivation, and Performance Sales is a high-pressure field, and managing stress is critical. Fitness, for Laura, is the cornerstone that keeps those plates spinning. It's a stress outlet that also boosts mood, sharpens focus, and builds the momentum that carries into her work and home life. On those days when stress feels overwhelming, exercise acts as a “reset button,” enabling her to show up as her best self. Most sales professionals know they should prioritize health, but common roadblocks get in the way. Laura highlights three challenges: lack of time, inconsistency, and the wrong mindset. Her guidance is to: Make Time: Treat fitness as a non-negotiable meeting. Even with a busy schedule, if it matters, you will find a way. Stay Consistent: Don't overdo it at the start and risk burnout. Start small, maintain the habit, and make it enjoyable. Shift Mindset: If possible, hire a personal trainer for accountability and fun. Don't view exercise as punishment, but as an opportunity for growth. The Do's and Don'ts of Fitness for Salespeople Laura distills her wisdom into actionable tips: Do: Protect your workout time—make it a top priority. Find joy in your training—pick activities you enjoy. Get professional support for accountability and learning. Don't: Compare your progress to others; your journey is unique. Pursue extreme, unsustainable routines. Separate health from career success—they are intrinsically linked. Self-Care Is a Smart Sales Strategy Laura's story is proof positive that investing in fitness doesn't just change your body; it elevates your mindset and professional capabilities. Fitness doesn't have to be about chasing perfection. It's about finding a routine that builds confidence, keeps energy high, and helps you show up as the best version of yourself. For sales professionals aiming to reach new heights, perhaps the missing piece isn't just a new strategy—it's stronger self-care and a commitment to physical wellbeing. Self-care isn't selfish. It's essential. Resources & People Mentioned Transicon LTD ABB Halcyon Drives Ltd.

This talk explores how to begin a mindfulness practice by starting exactly where you are. Rather than striving for a particular state or trying to “do it right,” we look at how mindfulness arises through simple remembering—the act of returning to presence, again and again. We'll reflect on how the breath can become a reliable ally, how intention can quietly shape our experience, and how there's no wrong way to begin. We'll explore four key themes: (1) how mindfulness is the practice of remembering presence, (2) the power of starting just as you are, without needing to fix or change anything, (3) how setting intention deepens and sustains your practice, and (4) the breath as a steady anchor in the midst of life's swirl. Through stories, guided reflection, and practical tools, you'll learn how to plant the seeds of a lifelong practice.

Professor Kozlowski tackles the preeminent philosopher of Enlightenment philosophy: Immanuel Kant. In this lecture, we'll discuss the basic principles underlying Deontological Ethics (including an explanation of the Categorical Imperative), before moving on to appreciate the wry dark humor and cutting insights of his political essay "Perpetual Peace."Our readings include excerpts from the Fundamental Principles of the Metaphysics of Morals (Or "Groundwork...") and the complete essay "Perpetual Peace."Additional readings this week include a healthy portion of sturm und drang: Goethe's Faust and Schiller's The Robbers, as well as the behemoth of Romantic Political Philosophy: Hegel's The Philosophy of Right. (Proceed with caution - Hegel is not for the faint of heart...) As for today's video game recommendation, we're going with the Gamecube-era JRPG: Tales of Symphonia for its unflinching deontological morality. Take that, Final Fantasy X!If you're interested in Professor Kozlowski's other online projects, check out his website: professorkozlowski.wordpress.com

Tragically, Breitbart himself is not. He died suddenly on March 1, 2012 at just 43 years of age. In his life, Breitbart was always a pioneer, pushing media and politics to the edges of the map only to open a completely new frontier. There's something fitting to him exploring the frontier of eternity just a little before the rest of us in his earthly death. Breitbart spent most of his career at the confluence of Hollywood, media, and politics. He was one of the first men on the right to clearly see the complete picture. “Celebrity is everything in this country,” Breitbart once said. “Media is everything. It's everything.” After listening to a radio interview with Breitbart, Larry O'Connor, then a show manager for Broadway productions, contacted Breitbart and wanted to write for his blog Big Hollywood. O'Connor found Breitbart, but Breitbart also found O'Connor. Now a radio host with Washington, D.C.'s WMAL, probably the most influential political radio station in the country, and author of a new book titled “Shameless Liars,” O'Connor joined "The Signal Sitdown" to discuss how Andrew Breitbart saw the rise of Trump, and the efforts to take him down like the Russiagate hoax, coming.

Now that the spring gobbler season has come and gone and the heat of summer settles in, many hunters stash their gear and count the days until the opening morning of deer season. However, the off-season doesn't mean hunters should take a break. In fact, summer may be the most underrated time to scout, strategize, and prepare for a successful fall. I'll admit it, I start getting excited for fall long before it arrives. While most people spend the...
This episode covers:In this episode, we discuss foundational lifestyle changes that are essential for healing, the connection between Lyme disease and autoimmune disorders, redefining stress in modern life, and so much more.Since the beginning of her medical career, Dr. Casey Kelley, M.D. continually asked questions about health, longevity, and healing that conventional medicine didn't answer.

ABOUT Pauline Kleingeld is Professor of Philosophy at the University of Groningen. Earlier she taught at Leiden University and at Washington University in St. Louis. She is the author of Kant and Cosmopolitanism (CUP 2012), Fortschritt und Vernunft: Zur Geschichtsphilosophie Kants (Königshausen und Neumann 1995) and numerous articles. Her academic interests are in ethics and political philosophy, with a special focus on Kant and Kantian theory. ABSTRACT In the first section of his Groundwork for the Metaphysics of Morals (G1), Immanuel Kant claims to identify the supreme principle of morality. After famous discussions of the idea of a ‘good will', ‘acting from duty' and ‘respect', he concludes that the highest moral principle is the following: ‘I ought never to proceed except in such a way that I could also will that my maxim should become a universal law' (G 4:402). He claims that this principle implicitly governs ordinary moral practices and convictions. It is the ‘supreme' moral principle in that it is a meta-principle by means of which substantive Kantian moral principles — such as ‘help others in need' or ‘never lie' — can be derived. Because Kant's argument draws on moral convictions that are still widely shared, and because his conclusion articulates a paradigmatic position in moral theory, G1 has become one of the most renowned texts in the history of philosophy. The structure of Kant's argument towards the identification of the supreme principle, however, has long been the subject of debate. Three serious difficulties stand out in the literature, and they all concern the most important steps of his argument: (1) Kant presents his argument as consisting of three propositions and a conclusion, but he labels only the second and third propositions as such. He does not make explicit what he takes the first proposition to be. In recent decades at least a dozen candidates have been put forward in the literature (see Steigleder 2022). (2) Kant claims that the third proposition follows from the first and the second, but it is widely regarded unclear how it is supposed to follow. (3) Kant's final step to the formulation of the supreme principle is often said to be a jump over a gap, rather than a careful step that follows from the preceding argument. As a result, Kant's reasoning towards the supreme moral principle seems more like a series of assertions and fragmentary arguments rather than a single argumentative chain. In this paper, I argue that Kant's views on philosophical method shed new light on the structure and direction of his argument in G1. It has gone unnoticed that this argument consists of a chain of regressive inferences. I first explain the current positions in the literature regarding Kant's method in G1 (§2). I then turn to Kant's views on method (§3). Using his description of the so-called ‘analytic method', I reconstruct the argument of G1 as a regressive chain. I argue that this reconstruction suggests solutions to the three main difficulties diagnosed in the literature, although several unclarities remain (§4).

A Preplanned Detour - Groundwork for RedemptionWebsite: http://www.battle4freedom.com/Network: https://www.mojo50.comStreaming: https://www.rumble.com/Battle4Freedomhttps://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Isaiah%2043%3A11&version=CJBIsaiah 43:11I, yes I, am Adonai; besides me there is no deliverer.Genesis 46:1 Isra'el took everything he owned with him on his journey. He arrived at Be'er-Sheva and offered sacrifices to the G_d of his father Yitz'chak. 2 In a vision at night G_d called to Isra'el, "Ya`akov! Ya`akov!" He answered, "Here I am." 3 He said, "I am G_d, the G_d of your father. Don't be afraid to go down to Egypt. It is there that I will make you into a great nation. 4 Not only will I go down with you to Egypt; but I will also bring you back here again, after Yosef has closed your eyes."Genesis 46:5 So Ya`akov left Be'er-Sheva; the sons of Isra'el brought Ya`akov their father, their little ones and their wives in the wagons Pharaoh had sent to carry them. 6 They took their cattle and their possessions which they had acquired in the land of Kena`an and arrived in Egypt, Ya`akov and all his descendants with him — 7 his sons, grandsons, daughters, granddaughters and all his descendants he brought with him into Egypt.Genesis 46:8 These are the names of Isra'el's children who came into Egypt, Ya`akov and his sons: Re'uven Ya`akov's firstborn; 9 and the sons of Re'uven — Hanokh, Pallu, Hetzron and Karmi. 10 The sons of Shim`on: Y'mu'el, Yamin, Ohad, Yakhin, Tzochar and Sha'ul the son of a Kena`ani woman. 11 The sons of Levi: Gershon, K'hat and M'rari.Genesis 46:12 The sons of Y'hudah: `Er, Onan, Shelah, Peretz and Zerach; but `Er and Onan died in the land of Kena`an. The sons of Peretz were Hetzron and Hamul. 13 The sons of Yissakhar: Tola, Puvah, Yov and Shimron. 14 The sons of Z'vulun: Sered, Elon and Yachle'el. 15 These were the children of Le'ah whom she bore to Ya`akov in Paddan-Aram, with his daughter Dinah. In sum, his sons and daughters numbered thirty-three. Genesis 46:16 The sons of Gad: Tzifyon, Haggi, Shuni, Etzbon, `Eri, Arodi and Ar'eli. 17 The children of Asher: Yimnah, Yishvah, Yishvi, B'ri`ah, and their sister Serach. The sons of B'ri`ah were Hever and Malki'el. 18 These were the children of Zilpah, whom Lavan gave to Le'ah his daughter; she bore them to Ya`akov — sixteen people. Genesis 46:19 The sons of Rachel Ya`akov's wife: Yosef and Binyamin. 20 To Yosef in the land of Egypt were born M'nasheh and Efrayim, whom Osnat the daughter of Poti-Fera priest of On bore to him. 21 The sons of Binyamin: Bela, Bekher, Ashbel, Gera, Na`aman, Echi, Rosh, Mupim, Hupim and Ard. 22 These were the children of Rachel who were born to Ya`akov — in sum, fourteen people.Genesis 46:23 The sons of Dan: Hushim. 24 The sons of Naftali: Yachtze'el, Guni, Yetzer and Shillem. 25 These were the sons of Bilhah, whom Lavan gave to Rachel his daughter; she bore them to Ya`akov — in sum, seven people.Genesis 46:26 All the people belonging to Ya`akov coming into Egypt, his direct descendants (not counting Ya`akov's sons' wives), totaled sixty-six. 27 The sons of Yosef, born to him in Egypt, were two in number. Thus all the people in Ya`akov's family who entered Egypt numbered seventy.Genesis 46:28 Ya`akov sent Y'hudah ahead of him to Yosef, so that the latter might guide him on the road to Goshen; thus they arrived in the land of Goshen. 29 Yosef prepared his chariot and went up to Goshen to meet Isra'el his father. He presented himself to him, embraced him and wept on his neck for a long time. 30 Then Isra'el said to Yosef, "Now I can die, because I have seen your face and seen that you are still alive."Genesis 46:31 Yosef said to his brothers and his father's family, "I'm going up to tell Pharaoh. I'll say to him, `My brothers and my father's family, who were in the land of Kena`an, have come to me. 32 The men are shepherds and keepers of livestock; they have brought their flocks, their herds and all their possessions.' 33 Now when Pharaoh summons you and asks, `What is your occupation?' 34 tell him, `Your servants have been keepers of livestock from our youth until now, both we and our ancestors.' This will ensure that you will live in the land of Goshen — for any shepherd is abhorrent to the Egyptians."Credit to:https://unsplash.com/photos/pathway-between-trees-74TufExdP3Yhttps://unsplash.com/photos/black-and-white-arrow-sign-Vckq-heaypghttps://unsplash.com/photos/gray-wall-paint-taO2fC7sxDU
In this Strides Revisited episode, we're returning to one of the most powerful mindset shifts in riding - the moment when you stop trying to control your horse's every move… and start asking with clarity instead. This episode takes a fresh look at leg yielding; not just as a lateral movement, but as a powerful training tool to refine how you use your aids and communicate with your horse. Whether you're rebuilding your confidence or looking to sharpen your lateral work, this is where the shift begins. In this episode, you'll learn: Why pushing = resistance - and what to do instead How to create “open doors” with your seat and reins to show your horse where to go The importance of timing your aids with how your horse is actually moving How feedback builds a conversation (and trust) between you and your horse
