What if success wasn't measured by titles, status, or income alone? What if true success was measured by fulfillment, purpose, compassion, presence, and the impact we leave on others? In this special Doulagivers Graduate Spotlight episode, we are honored to introduce Yasmeen Fatima—author, Certified Doulagiver, and a beautiful example of what becomes possible when we follow the quiet calling of the heart. Yasmeen completed her Doulagivers training in 2020 and has since dedicated her work to one of the most tender and sacred spaces imaginable: supporting children and families facing grief, loss, and end-of-life experiences. Suzanne recently had the opportunity to meet Yasmin in person while speaking at a conference in Guatemala, and the connection was a powerful reminder that this work transcends borders, languages, and cultures. It is a universal calling to show up for one another in our most vulnerable moments. In this heartfelt conversation, Yasmeen shares how the Doulagivers training transformed not only her professional path, but her life itself. She speaks about the courage it takes to follow your purpose, the unexpected gifts that emerge when you do, and why supporting children through grief is some of the most meaningful work she has ever known. As an author, Yasmeen has also created beautiful resources to support families navigating loss, including her book Heaven Starts Here: A Children's Guide to Grief—a compassionate and much-needed guide that helps children understand, process, and move through grief with love and support. This episode is part of our ongoing Doulagivers Graduate Spotlight Series, where we celebrate graduates who are bringing the teachings of compassion, community care, sacred dying, sacred grieving, and sacred living into the world in unique and powerful ways. Because success today is being redefined. Success is living in alignment with your values. Success is sharing your gifts. Success is answering the call to serve. Success is leaving the world a little better than you found it. And Yasmeen Fatima is doing exactly that. In This Episode: Yasmeen's journey into the Doulagivers training in 2020 How following her heart changed the direction of her life The sacred work of supporting children and families through grief Why pediatric grief support is so deeply needed today The impact of compassionate end-of-life and grief education Yasmeen's books and resources for children experiencing loss What true success means in a world hungry for purpose and connection How one person's calling can create a ripple effect of healing for countless others About Yasmeen Fatima Yasmeen Fatima is a Certified Doulagiver, author, and compassionate advocate for children and families navigating grief and loss. Her work focuses on supporting young people through some of life's most challenging transitions with honesty, love, understanding, and hope.

In this episode, we explore the complex political and security landscape of Guatemala with expert Tiziano Breda. We discuss recent developments, challenges in governance, gang violence, and the influence of international actors, providing insights into the country's future prospects.When President Bernardo Arevalo took office in 2023, many were hopeful for a fresh start in Guatemalan politics. However, his administration has faced numerous obstacles, including constant legal threats and political maneuvering aimed at undermining his authority. The former Attorney General, Consuelo Porras, has been particularly aggressive in her attempts to nullify the election results and impede Arevalo's legislative agenda. Tiziano Breda, Senior Analyst for Latin America and the Caribbean for ACLED (Armed Conflict Location and Event Data) speaks to the LatinNews podcast about the deterioration in security in Guatemala, the current government's move to a more hardline stance on crime and the country's relationship with the United States. Follow LatinNews for  analysis on economic, political, and security developments in Latin America & the Caribbean. Twitter: @latinnewslondonLinkedIn: Latin American NewslettersFacebook: @latinnews1967For more insightful, expert-led analysis on Latin America's political and economic landscape, read our reports for free with a 14-day trial.

The Greatest MAGA Military Recruiting Ad Ever. Iran and US Say They Have a Deal. Hegseth: Ecuador and Guatemala Are Next. Fox Gobbles Up Roku. USA Soccer Wins Big! Even Though Trump Called Them.  Sports is our mirror. On Saturday night, that mirror reflected the best of America — a 53-years-in-the-making Knicks championship built on a diverse, humble, durable team led by Jalen Brunson, a man who shook every hand on the losing side because integrity is doing the right thing even when nobody's watching. On Sunday night, the mirror reflected something uglier: a UFC card on the White House lawn, locked behind a Paramount Plus paywall, with no women on the card, fight bonuses paid in Trump-family crypto, and sponsors ranging from Elon's Starlink to Turning Point USA. The White House, Paul argues, was openly for sale — and most fight fans loved it. In this solo Monday briefing, Paul connects the dots between a triumphant Knicks parade week, a wildly effective piece of military-recruiting propaganda dressed up as an octagon, a U.S. World Cup team that just dropped three on its opener, a fragile Iran ceasefire with none of the original objectives met, Hegseth telegraphing Ecuador and Guatemala as next on the “Donroe” Doctrine hit list, and Fox swallowing Roku for $22 billion. He closes where the show always closes — with Brooklyn bikers carrying Narcan, an Angry Middle that isn't homeless but free, and a reminder that eternal vigilance is the price of freedom. -WATCH full video of this episode here. -Visit Kalshi and trade on anything.

El Ministerio Público presentó el caso UNOPS como uno de los mayores esquemas de corrupción reciente en Guatemala. En conferencia de prensa, el fiscal Rafael Curruchiche habló de redes de poder, vínculos familiares, farmacéuticas beneficiadas y hasta comparaciones con el caso Odebrecht. La narrativa era que una estructura criminal había operado desde el gobierno de Bernardo Arévalo para desviar millones en la compra de medicamentos e insumos médicos. Pero lo que muestra el expediente judicial, consultado para este reportaje hasta diciembre de 2025, son posibles fallas administrativas y una controversia sobre atribuciones del Ejecutivo para suscribir algunos convenios internacionales.

In this episode of John Solomon Reports, we delve into a significant development as the U.S. Justice Department indicts three individuals from Guatemala for their involvement in a crime wave linked to the smuggling of unaccompanied illegal migrant children. Host John Solomon reflects on the tireless efforts of Congressman Glenn Grossman and Senator Chuck Grassi, who have worked for years to bring accountability to this heart-wrenching issue. With tens of thousands of children lost under the Biden administration's watch, this indictment marks a crucial step towards justice.Additionally, President Trump has called off another wave of attacks on Iran amidst a major development expected to unfold shortly. As the situation evolves, John promises to keep listeners updated on the latest news from Just the News.In the second segment, Senator Rand Paul unveils a timeline revealing Dr. Anthony Fauci's extensive connections with the intelligence community, raising questions about the narrative surrounding COVID-19's origins. This intriguing report is currently trending at Just the News.Joining John today are Congresswoman Harriet Hageman from Wyoming, who discusses her role in driving accountability within the House, and former Assistant Attorney General Jeff Clark, who weighs in on a nonprofit linked to Democrat activists targeting Trump allies. The episode also features a lively discussion with former White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer, covering a range of political topics, including the upcoming elections.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

This week we stay on Dorothy Kilgallen in the weeks before November 8, 1965, tracing the files, the trips, and the people who disappeared around her. She finished the Murder One preface on a Sunday night and was dead by Monday morning. She handed a backup of her JFK chapter to a friend who died the next day.  Was Ron Pataki a hotel-suite lover, or a CIA handler from the Guatemala coup keeping watch? [04:39] – Murder One, the $10,000 advance, and the chapter that never made the book. [07:48] – The preface handed off Sunday night, dead by Monday morning. [10:14] – Mark Sinclair, the locked file, and "the case of a lifetime." [17:07] – Florence Pritchett Smith, the backup chapter, and a cerebral hemorrhage one day later. [30:01] – The New Orleans trip and "don't tell anyone you were here with me." [33:11] – The second trip that never happened and the cloak-and-dagger source. [41:28] – 544 Camp Street: Banister, Ferrie, Bringuier, and Oswald's leaflets. [47:31] – Ron Pataki, the Regency suite, and the 3 a.m. phone calls. [57:48] – PBSUCCESS, the Dulles brothers, and the United Fruit Company. [01:17:26] – The hotel-key humiliation broadcast over the studio PA. [01:20:55] – The last night, the open door, and a bedroom she never slept in.   Want more?

Chad Lewis has been down more rabbit holes than almost anyone alive. Nearly thirty years of fieldwork, over twenty-five books, and an unwavering commitment to saying "I don't know" without flinching. Tonight he takes us through what three decades of chasing the unexplained actually looks like from the inside.It started in Elmwood, Wisconsin, with high school UFO sightings and a psychology professor at UW Stout who turned out to be the first researcher to interview George Wheeler. From there the rabbit hole only deepened. Chad talks about how his position on Bigfoot has shifted over thirty years toward something stranger than flesh and blood, the Native American buffer zones throughout the Midwest where paranormal activity clusters, the cosmic trickster theory, and fieldwork in Guatemala tracking the Tata Duende through villages where locals warned him away with complete seriousness.Also covered: Lake Peppin's sea monster Peppy, the Van Meter Visitor, the Hodag, Wisconsin's paranormal landscape, and what thirty years of sitting with the unexplained does to your worldview.Chad Lewis: https://www.chadlewisresearch.com/Patreon: https://patreon.com/InfiniteRabbitHoleJeremy's Book: https://www.amazon.com/U-F-Elmwood-Cosmic-Puzzle/dp/B0GX1GBMZNYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@InfiniteRabbitHolePodcastWebsite: https://InfiniteRabbitHole.com

Ever wondered who ruled Mesoamerica, the Aztecs or the Mayans? The Mayans were first, building their amazing cities and pyramids in places like Guatemala and southern Mexico from around 2000 BCE. They were great at astronomy and had an advanced writing system. The Aztecs came later, dominating central Mexico with their powerful empire starting in the 14th century, known for their massive capital city, Tenochtitlán. Both civilizations were incredible in their own ways, but they ruled different parts of Mesoamerica at different times. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

H3-S2 full 00:14 I just go to Willie from Anderson. How you doing Willie? 00:19 Hey, how you doing? I'm doing good, man. What's up? When I went to vote a couple hours ago at 325 department down near where I live, near Rand High School, the guy running against April Cromer and a guy who was a friend of April Cromer were out front shaking hands with voters as they went inside and introducing themselves. 00:47 Is that legal or not? guess it is. Believe it or not, that's legal. Candidates can stand outside the polling place. I'd never seen that before. It's crazy. I know you can't have a sign. You can't have a t-shirt. You can't say, hey, vote for me. But you can say, hey, I'm running here and I appreciate you coming out. Well, look, one other question. Yeah. Did Bill Frady have Lindsey Graham on his show a couple of days ago? 01:15 A couple of days ago, don't know. Somebody would have to remind me about that, but he has had them on before. I think I've heard him and I get, you know, I had places to go. Yeah. So I think, but it sounded like Lindsey Graham. And have you ever tried to pull that off? Say what? 01:35 Have you ever tried to pull that off and get Lindsey on your show? Lindsey, Lindsey, I've had Lindsey on my show down in Charleston, but we had a bit of a falling out because he's a rhino and he just refuses to come on the show anymore because I asked him hard questions. I can't believe you had a falling out with Lindsey Graham. know, right? Go figure. Go figure. I appreciate it, Willie. Thank you very much. Let's go to Matthew in Greenville. Matthew, welcome. Hey, Charlie. 02:05 Hey, I was, um, got out my polling place down here in Robert Cashin Elementary, uh pork shoulder road and, uh, two things. I went in, gave my ID, confirmed my address. I noticed on the, on the table, they have you sign your name for whatever political party you go for. Yeah. And at this particular place, I saw there was three lines. They had a stack of maybe 15, no, about 10 plus of a hundred plus names. 02:34 of republican and only like two or three of democrats are about that would be turnout yeah definitely and then what i finally went to go bow i put all my votes and i hit print on my machine and my machine malfunctioned uh... and uh... it was a big red alert it said here please contact uh... voting official election official and waited about twenty minutes they're trying to get a hold of the clerk uh... he eventually came and had to open it up decommissioned and had to manually pull out my 03:04 my voter card and then we walked to the scanner and he said, well, hopefully this scans through so your vote can count. And I was like, yeah, I hope so. Yeah, hopefully. Did it, but did it say your vote was recorded? Yeah, it did at the end. Yep. And I got my sticker. So I'm for it today. There you go. I appreciate it, Matthew. Thank you. Let's go to Carl Engafne. Carl, what's going on with you? Hey, how are doing, Charlie? Doing good. What's up? I greatly appreciate. 03:32 what you, you know, WRD has done with, you know, the candidates and whatnot. But one thing I listened to most of those town hall things, but what bothered me is I don't know. Maybe you did, but I don't remember. To me, the most crucial question to ask each candidate is whether you're going to try to deputize local law enforcement to help ice out because that is the number one issue is this illegal immigration, particularly in the upstate. 04:02 Um, I work in manufacturing and, know, 10, 20 years ago, you could go out and get a manufacturing job, you know, pretty good pay, but as Tara has pointed out many times, some of these jobs, the pay is lower now than it was 10 years ago. Yeah. For some of these jobs. it's because, and I believe me, I work in it. So I see them almost everyone I work with is Spanish. They all speak. Most of them are illegals. from, and they're not just from Mexico. The Mexicans have been here a long time. 04:28 These people from Guatemala, El Salva ... 419 Tue, 09 Jun 2026 21:33:00 +0000 xKjqeXNmU78Hd3J4FmnLnvvwx6fvU2TN news The Charlie James Show Podcast news H3-S2 The Charlie James Show originates from News/Talk 989 WORD, The Upstate's #1 Talk Station, weekdays 3-7pm.

En el Holocausto, cuando una persona bajaba del tren, lo primero que hacían era ponerle un número en el brazo. Ese número determinaba dónde vivías, qué comías, qué trabajo tenías — y cuántos días ibas a vivir.  ¿Cuántas marcas llevas tú hoy que están determinando lo mismo? En esta poderosa Noche de Pentecostés, el Pastor Otoniel Font nos lleva a través de la primera marca registrada en la Biblia — la de Caín — y la marca que cambió para siempre la vida de Jacob en Peniel, para mostrarnos algo que transforma todo: hay una marca más poderosa que cualquier número que el mundo te haya puesto. La marca del Espíritu Santo.  También en este servicio, el Pastor comparte por primera vez el testimonio personal de su milagro de fertilidad en Guatemala — la historia que dio origen a su hija Jenny Bell — como evidencia viva de que los prodigios de Dios son reales. Descubrirás: ✔ La diferencia entre señales, milagros y prodigios — y cómo los tres deben operar en tu vida ✔ Por qué todos sobrevivimos algo pero no todo de nosotros sobrevive  ✔ Qué significa caminar cojo como Jacob — pero caminar derecho por primera vez ✔ Cómo la marca del Espíritu Santo reemplaza cada número que el mundo te puso

From February 12, 2024: On January 15, Bernardo Arévalo took office as the new president of Guatemala. The transfer of power had been far from assured: after Arévalo triumphed in August elections as an anti-corruption reformer, Guatemala's political elite did their best to throw legal obstacles in his way and prevent him from taking power. His presidency represents a stunning victory for Guatemalan democracy, which has long been under threat. But there are plenty of difficulties still ahead.To catch up on what's been happening in Guatemala, Lawfare Senior Editor Quinta Jurecic spoke with Vaclav Masek, a Guatemalan sociologist and columnist. They discussed how Arévalo triumphed, the significance of his victory for Guatemala and the region, and what all this might tell us about the ability of democracies to resist authoritarian backsliding around the world.If you're interested in more on Arévalo, you can also listen to Quinta's conversation from August with Manuel Meléndez-Sánchez about the election and Arévalo's victory.To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.

For this week's show, sponsored by EGA, we had the privilege of spending time with textile artist Judy Coates Perez. Her textile arts career started with an extended family car trip when Judy was in 8th grade. In Guatemala, she learned how to do backstrap (not backstop ;)) weaving. That triggered a lifelong love of multimedia textile art creation. We spent a delightful hour learning about how she creates. Today, in addition to her own art and teaching, Judy has likely the best day job an artist could imagine. We’re confident you’ll enjoy the show and urge you to follow Judy so you can keep up with her work.–Beth and Gary Listen to the podcast: This show is also available on FlossTube.

Scripture: Acts 2:41-47The Rev. Susan Gilpin preaches on a day when Kristen and Audrey Farnham also present on their recent trip to and work in Guatemala with From Houses to Homes. In Acts, as the early church begins to spread far and wide, it is the generosity of the Holy Spirit which marks them. Today, we are invited to consider how church might be the flower which goes to seed and spreads newness of life into the world… The post “Giving it All Away” – The Rev. Susan Gilpin appeared first on Foreside Community Church.

In the late 1940s and early 1950s, CIA and MI6 launched an audacious series of clandestine operations to infiltrate and destabilize Communist Albania — and lost nearly every agent they sent in. Historian Stephen Long, Assistant Professor in International Relations at Xi'an Jiaotong-Liverpool University and author of A Rich Harvest of Bitter Fruit, reconstructs how the Albanian Sigurimi, one of Eastern Europe's most formidable counterintelligence services, turned the West's covert action program into a catastrophe — aided, from the inside, by British Russian spy Kim Philby. Long examines the fractured exile networks that became the human raw material for these missions, the diverging British and American strategic objectives, and the 1952 Apple mission's disastrous double cross. He traces how Albania's failures quietly shaped the covert interventions to come — in Iran, in Guatemala — and what the human cost demands of the institutions that ordered it.Subscribe and share to stay ahead in the world of intelligence, global issues, and current affairs.Order A Rich Harvest of Bitter Fruit: https://blackwells.co.uk/bookshop/product/A-Rich-Harvest-of-Bitter-Fruit-by-Stephen-Long/9781837732241Connect with Stephen: https://scholar.xjtlu.edu.cn/en/persons/SteveLong/Support Secrets and SpiesBecome a “Friend of the Podcast” on Patreon for £3/$4: https://www.patreon.com/SecretsAndSpiesBuy merchandise from our shop: https://www.redbubble.com/shop/ap/60934996Buy us a coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/secretsandspiesSubscribe to our YouTube page: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCDVB23lrHr3KFeXq4VU36dgFor more information about the podcast, check out our website: https://secretsandspiespodcast.comConnect with us on social mediaBluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/secretsandspies.bsky.socialInstagram: https://instagram.com/secretsandspiesFacebook: https://facebook.com/secretsandspiesSpoutible: https://spoutible.com/SecretsAndSpiesFollow Chris and Matt on Bluesky:https://bsky.app/profile/chriscarrfilm.bsky.socialhttps://bsky.app/profile/mattfulton.netSecrets and Spies is produced by Films & Podcasts LTD: https://filmsandpodcasts.co.uk/Music by Andrew R.

#124 A Cup of Tea with Flowing River On this episode we sit down with Flowing River, a heart-centered mystic and ceremonialist who runs a tea house in Montecito, California. The conversation covered Flowing River's spiritual journey, including his travels to 34 countries seeking personal healing and spiritual understanding, beginning at age 29 with yoga training in Guatemala. We discussed the challenges of Western capitalism and consumer culture, with Flowing River sharing stories from his time living in a Filipino ghetto where he learned about contentment and the human capacity for adaptation. The discussion touched on topics ranging from technology addiction and social media habits to alternative governance models, permaculture, and the importance of reconnecting with nature through growing food. We end with Flowing River reading a poem about the futility of pursuing material wealth in the search for true happiness and spiritual fulfillment. https://drishti.house/

En este episodio de Podcast Paranormal, exploramos misterios criminales resueltos desde el más allá. ¿Es posible que las canalizaciones psíquicas y el uso de Spirit Box sean la única llave para resolver crímenes sepultados por las autoridades? Acompáñenos a Fepo junto a Vanessa Alvarado para conocer sobre la criminología paranormal y la manipulación de entidades oscuras. Ahondamos desde el impactante caso de la joven Allison Bonilla en Costa Rica, donde una escalofriante psicofonía delató al asesino en tiempo real revelando el nombre de "Joaquín", pasando por las conspiraciones en Guatemala donde la tecnología Kinect registró siluetas sin cabeza en una escena custodiada por el Ministerio Público, hasta la evidencia de marcas físicas en la piel de los investigadores en venganza por desenterrar secretos. Analizamos la investigación de campo en escenas del crimen y el contacto con seres de otros planos. ¿Has escuchado un susurro en la oscuridad que pareciera revelar un secreto que nadie más debía saber?

Congress is hollowing out, and the consequences show up first in foreign policy. Dan McAdams returns to talk with us about what Thomas Massie's primary loss signals for antiwar oversight, why the Ron Paul era of forcing floor debates through appropriations fights is largely gone, and how that vacuum makes it easier for Washington to slide into the next conflict without friction. We dig into Iran and the so-called ceasefire: the strikes, the responses, and the familiar pattern of narrative manipulation where the U.S. can provoke, then rebrand escalation as “defense.” We also unpack the latest claims of a draft Trump Iran deal, why leak-driven reporting deserves extra skepticism, and how media pipelines can function like message distribution for competing interests rather than real journalism. From there we move to Israel and Gaza, including Netanyahu's comments that point toward annexation, the U.S. role in funding and arming the campaign, and the way Lebanon and Hezbollah complicate any regional settlement. We also discuss harrowing firsthand accounts of Gaza's blockade and a political paradox: anti-intervention voices are breaking through culturally, but votes and power haven't caught up yet. Finally, we zoom out to Latin America, from Javier Milei and BRICS anxiety to U.S. drug war strikes in Guatemala and the danger of normalizing kill-first policy without due process.

The economy was designed to serve life. At some point, it forgot. This article traces how that happened - through colonial extraction, currency manipulation, and centuries of treating the Earth as an inexhaustible resource - and more importantly, what is already being built in its place. It is also worth naming what is being built against it. Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDC), digital identity systems, and the broader technocratic agenda advancing through institutions like the World Economic Forum represent a competing vision of the future - one where economic participation is surveilled, programmable, and ultimately controlled by the few. That is not a regenerative economy. It is the extractive economy in a new interface. The regenerative economy moves in the opposite direction: toward decentralization, sovereignty, reciprocity, and life. From Time Banks in New York to community currencies in Ecuador to worker cooperatives in Spain, it is not a future vision. It is a present reality, waiting to be joined. And while blockchain and regenerative finance are real and important parts of this picture, the regenerative economy is bigger than any single technology. It is a whole-systems redesign - cultural, spiritual, and practical - of how human beings relate to value, to each other, and to all living beings on Earth.A System Feature | Designed to ExtractA president steps up to the podium in Manila, praising the economic progress their country has fulfilled after, what many of us call “ the plandemic”. Outside the auditorium, a young mother carries her child on her hip, knocking on car windows at a red light, eyes down, asking for alms. The applause inside the hall doesn't reach her. It never does.The president says the currency has strengthened. That prices are coming down. Meanwhile, across the city, a farmer named Rodrigo is standing in the field he has worked for thirty years, calculating whether this harvest will cover the loan he took out before the last typhoon swept his crop away. It didn't. This is not an exception to the economic system. It is a feature of it. A reflection of a culture that does not care about those actually in need.Many nations measure their health through GDP - Gross Domestic Product - which essentially dictates whether or not an economy is “progressing.” It runs under one quiet assumption: that the Earth will keep giving. Indefinitely. Without asking anything in return. That before the calculations around supply, demand, and the balance of everything else, all the raw materials are already ideally supplied.The Earth is answering. Typhoons that once came once a generation now arrive like clockwork. Harvests that fed communities for centuries are failing across the Andes, the Sahel, the Mekong delta. The seasons that indigenous peoples read as living calendars have become erratic, unreliable, grieving. None of this is random. It is a response - accurate and proportional - to an economy built on the assumption that extraction has no cost.If we were truly “abundant” financially, we would not have billions of people at risk of starvation, homelessness, and other manifestations of neglect and poverty. The economy was supposed to serve all life. It has forgotten this. And in forgetting it, it has begun to abandon human life itself.The Story We InheritedMoney was supposed to be a promissory note for the gold reserves one actually held. The paper was a symbol - pointing at something real, something held in a vault somewhere, something that could be touched.Then the notes began circulating. And the longer they circulated, the more people forgot what they were pointing to. Eventually, the circulation gave rise to the idea of turning the notes into currency itself. The symbol became the standard. It became backed not by gold, but by story - a story so strong, so repeated, so programmed into every transaction of daily life, that we began to mistake it for the truth.We placed a middleman between ourselves and our needs. And somewhere along the way, we forgot we had done it. Perhaps, by design. Here is what the story never tells you: the gold itself did not arrive innocently.In 1302, Pope Boniface VIII issued Unam Sanctam, declaring papal authority supreme over all earthly power - making the Earth itself, philosophically, ownable. A century and a half later, that claim became economic policy. Dum Diversas (1452) authorized the enslavement of non-Christians across the globe. Romanus Pontifex (1455) granted Portugal the right to colonize and extract across Africa and the New World. Inter Caetera (1493) extended the same to Spain and the Americas.These were the founding economic legislation of the extractive world we live in - all cloaked in religious language.What followed was centuries of forced extraction. Economists Flynn and Giráldez have documented that colonial American silver - mined through indigenous forced labor in Potosí and across Peru and Mexico - became the standard monetary foundation of early global trade. The gold in the vault was never simply there. It was coercively taken.And then, on August 15, 1971, even that material trace was erased. President Nixon closed the gold window, ending the Bretton Woods system and severing the dollar's convertibility to gold. According to the Federal Reserve's own record, the international community was not consulted. From that moment, currency was backed by nothing but the authority of the government printing it.Knowing that we wrote ourselves into this story, we are now remembering that we can write ourselves out of it. Not only by writing new stories, but by reconnecting with stories that existed long before our current economic situation - stories that are still alive, still practiced, still remembered by the communities that never abandoned them.What Has Always WorkedBefore the conquest of certain nations to centralize power into their hands, other societies practiced more communal and regenerative ways of exchanging value. To them, considering other people and the Earth itself was not an ethical add-on. It was integral to the flourishing of their economies.Pre-colonial PhilippinesLong before the Spaniards arrived, the Philippine archipelago was a major hub in the maritime Silk Road - one of Asia's most active trade networks. Communities exchanged with Chinese, Japanese, Arab, and Indian traders at coastal ports and river settlements.The archipelagic geography made it impossible to consolidate wealth in any single place. Different tribes like the Maranao exchanged surplus agricultural produce, textiles, metalware, and forest products through robust barter systems built on kinship ties and alliances among polities. Value moved between two people who chose to relate. No middleman. Mutual trust was the economic infrastructure.Andean PeoplesThe Quechua people organized their economy around a relational foundation that lives in the language itself. Ayni - sacred reciprocity. Minka - collective community work. Randi-Randi - generalized reciprocity, the understanding that what circulates returns. All three connect to the broader principle of Sumak Kawsay: good living in right relationship with community, land, and the living world.Sumak Kawsay does not separate prosperity from the wellbeing of ecosystems. It understands them as one thing. This recognition runs so deep that Ecuador enshrined it as the central guiding principle for its national development in its 2008 constitution - the living legal inheritance of an ancient economy that knew how to stay.Haudenosaunee in North AmericaIn their 1981 formal statement to the United Nations, the Haudenosaunee Council of Chiefs articulated what their communities had practiced for centuries: that the earth was created for all to use, forever - not for the present generation to exhaust. Under their law, land is held by the women of each clan, who farm and care for it for the benefit of future generations.The Haudenosaunee saw land as a responsibility to be stewarded in trust. Anthropologist Kurt Jordan from Cornell University documented their economic practices and described them as “a reasonably sustainable, localized economy” even under intense external pressure. They had embodied communal stewardship long before theories about such things were written down.Southern Africa“I am because we are.”This is Ubuntu - the philosophy at the core of both social and economic life across Southern Africa. Communities in South Africa and Mozambique relied on mutual aid networks, intergenerational knowledge systems, and participatory rituals as practical economic infrastructure. These systems enhanced community cohesion and collective resilience precisely in the moments when extractive economies failed them. They understood, bone-deep, that no human being thrives in isolation.Diversity of Regen Economic SystemsMany communities across continents are actively rebuilding economic systems beyond the extractive model. The following are not theoretical. They are actively running. Hence, the more diversity of economic systems each person and community practices, the more abundant, unbreakable and independent we are from degenerative systems from governments and corporations that want to control it all. The Commons FoundationOne body of research forms the intellectual foundation for nearly all of them: the life's work of Elinor Ostrom, the first woman to receive the Nobel Prize in Economics. Ostrom spent decades documenting over 800 cases of communities successfully governing shared resources - in Switzerland, Kenya, Guatemala, Nepal, and beyond - without either privatization or state control.Her conclusion was simple and radical: communities do not inevitably destroy what they share. Given the right institutional design, they protect it and pass this duty to the next generation. And her eight design principles for successful commons governance - the framework that emerged from all that fieldwork - describe, as she herself acknowledged, the same governance systems that indigenous communities had been practicing for centuries.Her work is not a new idea. It is a confirmation of ancient ones.Regenerative Economics | Beyond ReFi - The Whole-Systems VisionWhen most people first encounter the term “regenerative economy,” they arrive through crypto. Through ReFi - regenerative finance - and the promise of blockchain as a tool for funding ecological restoration, decentralizing power, and making impact transparent. These are real contributions. They matter.But John Fullerton, founder of the Capital Institute and one of the most rigorous thinkers in this field, spent two decades on Wall Street before arriving at a different and more fundamental question: what if the entire framework of modern finance is running in conflict with how life actually works?Fullerton's work focuses on building an economic framework that supports the long-term health of people, communities, and the planet - not by tweaking the existing system, but by replacing its underlying logic. His core argument is that we are running our society in conflict with the patterns and principles that explain how life works.His answer is what he calls regenerative economics: eight principles drawn from living systems science that describe how healthy economies - like healthy ecosystems - actually function. Diversity. Balance. Circular flow. Robust circulation. Surplus financial capital, in his framework, needs to be recycled and regenerated into other forms of capital - natural, social, and cultural. Not hoarded nor extracted. Composted back into the living system that produced it.ReFi, in Fullerton's framing, is one tool within this larger architecture. Blockchain can decentralize power. Tokenized nature credits can make ecological value legible to markets. Community currencies can circulate value locally. But the technology is only as regenerative as the values underneath it. A crypto project built on extraction logic is still extraction, regardless of the chain it runs on.Regenerative economy is not a financial product. It is a civilizational shift - in how we measure wealth, in what we decide to protect, in whose voices count when decisions are made. ReFi is welcome in that shift. It is one current in a much larger river.Time BanksIn Jackson Heights, Queens, a retired nurse named Gloria hasn't touched the formal economy in months for the things that matter most to her. She spends three hours teaching English to a recent immigrant. Those hours become credits. She spends them on home repairs from a neighbor who knows carpentry. He spends his credits on childcare. The loop keeps moving.This is a Time Bank - a community exchange system built on one radical premise: everyone's time is worth the same. One hour of legal advice equals one hour of gardening equals one hour of emotional support. The hierarchy of market wages disappears. What remains is a web of people who need each other.Edgar Cahn, who developed Time Banking in the 1980s after surviving a near-fatal heart attack, called it “co-production” - the idea that the economy needs what the market can never price: care, community, civic participation, the work of raising children and holding elders. Time Banks make that invisible labor visible, and circulate it back into the community that produced it.Today there are over 500 Time Banks operating in more than 30 countries. Some have formalized into neighborhood institutions. Others run through apps. All of them rest on the same foundation the Quechua called Ayni - sacred reciprocity - translated into the language of modern urban life.Mondragon CorporationThe Mondragon Corporation in Spain's Basque region remains the most studied proof that democratic ownership functions at scale. Founded by six worker-owners in 1956, it now comprises 96 cooperatives employing over 70,000 people, with annual revenues exceeding €11 billion. Workers own the company collectively, vote on strategy at general assemblies, and operate under a constitutionally capped pay ratio of 6-to-1 between the highest and lowest earners.Traditional Dream FactoryIn a 25-hectare village in Alentejo, Portugal, Traditional Dream Factory is a living prototype of the self-sustaining regenerative community - blending collective ownership, ecological restoration, intentional community, and decentralized economy in one working place. They have raised over €1.25 million in total capital across 280+ token holders. Their 2026 build phase is completing co-living rooms, artist studios, a farm-to-table restaurant, a mushroom farm, and a biopool wellness space.AtreyuInvestment, as most of us have encountered it, prioritizes short-term financial returns above all else. Atreyu challenges this at the root by approaching investment through living systems principles and deep relational due diligence. They support their investees to ensure that both the enterprises and the ecosystems they steward realize their potential - together. They focus on early-stage businesses and actively encourage steward-ownership models that enshrine self-governance and purpose orientation.Muyu CoinOne of the first social coins in South America, Based in Ecuador - Muyu serves as an alternative exchange system rooted in community trust and an understanding of sacred economy. It protects the sovereignty of communities in their production, distribution, exchange, consumption, and post-consumption - keeping the loop of value inside the community rather than extracting it outward. It uses Cyclos, an enchrypted platform, a base.It first did an attempt to start in 2015, but not many people showed interest. It then came back very strong in 2020, due to the “plandemic”. People felt the need to have alternative ways to transact that was not controlled by limiting governments. Giving communities complete independence. Currently with over 150+ members who are exchanging goods and services in different nodes throughout the country. From food produce, clothing and art -to- car mechanic, dentists and school teachers serving to the community.Grassroots EconomicsFounded in Kenya, Grassroots Economics supports communities in building their own self-sustaining economies - even when national currency is scarce - through a model called Commitment Pooling.Consider Wanjiru, a vegetable seller in Mombasa's Bangla Pesa network. During a slow week when Kenyan shillings are tight, she issues a Community Asset Voucher - a commitment to provide vegetables - and deposits it into a communal pool. Her neighbor, a carpenter named Kamau, redeems it. He offers his own labor in return. The loop closes. Food reaches a family that needed it. A roof gets repaired. No national currency changes hands.This is not a workaround. It is a return to how value was always supposed to move.Since Grassroots Economics was established in 2010, they have supported 26,600 people across 290+ communities, issuing over 2,140 vouchers. Their protocol is inspired by indigenous Rotational Labor Associations similar to Kenya's mwethya and harambee traditions. It is open-source and blockchain-agnostic - meaning any community, anywhere, can deploy it.The Choice in Front of UsThese regenerative endeavors share one answer to the core assumption of the extractive economy: the economy does not need to extract in order to function. Value can circulate and regenerate rather than accumulate. Ecological health, community resilience, and the wellbeing of the next generations are not costs to minimize - they are the actual metrics that demonstrate economic success.The question is no longer whether it is possible. It is happening. The question is whether enough of us choose to participate in building it, and whether we remember our roles as stewards of the Earth that has always sustained us.We get to choose the future we want for ourselves, our children, and the seven generations that come after.Your Role in the Regenerative EconomyReading this is already a kind of remembering. The question that follows is simple: where do you begin?The regenerative economy is not waiting to be invented. It is waiting to be joined. Every one of the models described here started with a small group of people who decided to practice a different relationship with value - before it was proven, before it was popular, before it was funded.Here are real entry points, available now:Start with your immediate circle. Identify three skills or resources you have in excess - time, knowledge, food from a garden, tools sitting unused. Offer them. Ask for what you need in return. This is Ayni. It requires no platform, no signup, no permission.Relocalize your spending. Every dollar (fiat currency) that circulates inside a local economy multiplies its impact without leaving the community. Farmers markets, community-supported agriculture, local cooperatives, regenerative small businesses - these are not lifestyle choices. They are votes for a different system, cast weekly.Find or start a Time Bank in your area. hOurworld.org and TimeBanks.org maintain active directories. If nothing exists near you, starting one requires little more than a spreadsheet and a Telegram/Whatsapp group.Join a community working on this. It can be our Regenerative Leadership Community from www.regenerativeculture.life is one place. There are others - transition towns, ecovillages, commons networks - in most regions of the world. Find your people. The regenerative economy is, at its root, a relationship economy. It does not work alone.Learn the language. Permaculture design, commons governance, cooperative economics, sacred reciprocity - these are not abstract concepts. They are practical skills with deep traditions behind them. The more fluent you become, the more useful you are to the communities building this.The scale of what needs to change can feel paralyzing. It is not meant to. The models described in this article did not begin at scale. Mondragon began with six people. Grassroots Economics began in one neighborhood in Mombasa. The Quechua did not design Ayni for a movement - they designed it for a harvest.Start where you are. With what you have. With whoever is near you. That has always been enough to begin. It's not easy, but it is possible.Written by Gertie Farenas and Yoshi Pantera - 90% by us humans and 10% AI assisted.This Audio is recorded by a true voice - Yoshi PanteraThis article is part of the Regenerative Culture Chronicle - a publication exploring the ideas, practices, and communities building a world that benefits all life.Learn more at RegenerativeCulture.LifeThanks for reading Regenerative Culture Chronicle!

Original Air Date: Nov 21, 2018   Today we visit the library to find the ultimate punishment for overdue books, go to Iran to talk to the dirtiest man on Earth, then trek over to Guatemala to investigate a mysterious, massive stone head. "Anthropodermic Bibliopegy" is what science nerds may call them, but we're talking about books bound in human skin. How common are these cursed texts? The answer may surprise you! Then we travel to Iran to meet Amou Haji, also known as the Dirtiest Man Alive. He hasn't bathed in 60 years and drinks water out of a rusty oil can. And if you think those two things are disgusting . . . And finally we visit Guatemala where, lost in the jungle lies a stone heard looking up towards the sky. Does this monument signify an ancient race, a UFO visitation, or something much more . . .human?   Patreon (Get ad-free episodes, Patreon Discord Access, and more!) https://www.patreon.com/user?u=18482113 PayPal Donation Link https://tinyurl.com/mrxe36ph MERCH STORE!!! https://tinyurl.com/y8zam4o2 Amazon Wish List https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/28CIOGSFRUXAD?ref_=wl_share Dead Rabbit Radio Archive Episodes https://deadrabbitradio.blogspot.com/2025/07/ episode-archive.html https://archive.ph/UELip Dead Rabbit Radio Recommends Master List https://letterboxd.com/dead_rabbit/list/dead-rabbit-radio-recommends/   Help Promote Dead Rabbit!

In this episode of the Animal Law Podcast, host Mariann Sullivan speaks with Amal Bouhabib, senior staff attorney at FarmSTAND, about a landmark federal lawsuit involving three young men from Guatemala who were recruited to the U.S. on J-1 cultural exchange visas and subjected to dangerous working conditions, fraudulent promises, substandard housing, and coercive threats at an industrial swine operation in…

Content Warning: Discussion of suicide and suicidal ideation.In this episode of Mormon Stories, Gustavo Hernandez from Mexico City shares his experience growing up Mormon in Mexico, discovering difficult church history as a teenager, and ultimately choosing to remain an active, believing member of the Church while navigating doubt, anxiety, and faith crises. Gustavo opens up about the shame culture surrounding worthiness, pornography confessions, and perfectionism in Mormonism –including how teachings from leaders like Spencer W. Kimball deeply affected his mental health as a young teen. He discusses experiencing panic attacks, existential dread, and suicidal thoughts while trying to reconcile faith, church history, and his desire to feel accepted by God. Along the way, Gustavo encountered the CES Letter, Mormon Stories, exMormon Reddit, temple controversies, Joseph Smith's polygamy, the priesthood ban, Freemasonry, and multiple First Vision accounts. Despite everything, he chose to stay active in the Church, serve a mission in Guatemala, and eventually became an institute teacher in Mexico. The interview includes topics like what it's like being Mormon in Mexico, growing up in a predominantly Catholic culture, p*rnography shame and bishop interviews, faith crisis as a fourteen year old boy, the CES Letter and apologetics, mission burnout, mental health and suicidal ideation, remaining active after losing certainly, as well as current beliefs about Joseph Smith, the Book of Mormon, polygamy, and LGBTQ issues. Whether you agree with Gustavo's conclusions or not, his story offers an honest and nuanced look at faith, doubt, mental health, and what it means to stay.___________________Show NotesYouTubeAt Mormon Stories we explore, celebrate, and challenge Mormon culture through in-depth stories told by members and former members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints as well as scholars, authors, LDS apologists, and other professionals.  Our overall mission is to: 1. Facilitate informed consent amongst LDS Church members, investigators, and non-members regarding Mormon history, doctrine, and theology2. Support Mormons (and members of other high-demand religions) who are experiencing a religious faith crisis3. Promote healing, growth and community for those who choose to leave the LDS Church or other high demand religions
