She'd barely heard the word before that. Four years later, she's built an entire framework around it.She argues plasma isn't just the fourth state of matter. It's sentient, feminine, and the layer where consciousness, memory, belief, and physical reality feed back into each other. Ether by another name.The implications get interesting: why the same "demon" appears differently to different people, why UFOs keep changing shape across centuries, what happens to your beliefs when you die, and why she thinks alien disclosure distracts from a bigger story about your own biofield.If beliefs shape reality, the question isn't whether that's true; it's what you do with it.

When the 2026 season started with Paul Skenes having the roughest start of his MLB career against the New York Mets, many thought it would be just a blip on his greatness radar. Unfortunately, it might have been a precursor for things to come this season for the Pittsburgh Pirates ace, and now we're left wondering if something is truly wrong with Skenes. On this episode of Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman discuss yet another concerning start for the reigning NL Cy Young Award winner and try to figure out what's going on with Paul Skenes. They make a comparison between him and Seattle Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh, who has also suffered a major falloff after his great 2025 campaign, and discuss whether the World Baseball Classic can be used as an excuse. Later in the show, Jake and Jordan talk about Jackson Merrill being at the forefront of the San Diego Padres' hot offense, which has put them right back in the mix for a potential NL Wild Card spot. They then highlight the Chicago White Sox giving out a Pope hat as part of a giveaway, Tim Anderson announcing his retirement and play a fun game surrounding the 2026 Heart and Hustle Award winners. 1:11 - The Opener: Paul Skenes' concern grows 19:13 - Cal Raleigh's falloff from 2026 29:53 - Around The League: Pope mania reaches new high 37:25 - Tim Anderson announces retirement 43:37 - Padres are getting hot 48:38 - Thoughts on the Phillies 54:23 - Heart and Hustle Award game Subscribe to Baseball Bar-B-Cast on your favorite podcast app:
Which version of you shows up when you pray?In this reflection on Psalm 55, John Ortberg explores a surprising truth about prayer: God doesn't want the cleaned-up, polished, "Disney version" of you. He wants the real you.The Psalms aren't theological essays or collections of perfectly polished emotions. They're raw prayers from real human beings bringing fear, anger, anguish, confusion, and desire honestly before God.John connects this idea to the original story of The Adventures of Pinocchio, which is much darker and more spiritually suggestive than the famous Disney adaptation. Pinocchio is lovingly created by his father, rebels against him, rejects his conscience, and longs for something he cannot accomplish on his own: to become real.And that's where Pinocchio's story intersects with ours.Transformation doesn't begin when we finally become the person we think God wants. It begins when the person we actually are becomes willing to stand honestly before Him.In this episode:Psalm 55 and honest prayerWhy every emotion in the Psalms isn't necessarily an instructionBringing our troubled thoughts before GodThe surprising theology of PinocchioConscience, rebellion, and the love of the FatherBiblical echoes of Jonah and the Prodigal SonMoving from a heart of stone to a heart of fleshWhy transformation begins with getting realScriptures:Psalm 552 Timothy 3:16–17Hosea 11:3Luke 15Jonah 1–2Matthew 12:38–40Ezekiel 36:26#Psalm55 #JohnOrtberg #Prayer #Psalms #Pinocchio #SpiritualFormation #ChristianFaith #BibleStudy #HonestPrayer #Transformation
Bioneers: Revolution From the Heart of Nature | Bioneers Radio Series
To transform our culture from its focus on dominance and hierarchy to one of connection, empathy and collaboration, it's vital that we re-envision the essential (or archetypal) masculine, which changes everything. This rarely tackled topic is the subject of a deeply authentic dialogue among Playwright and activist V, formerly Eve Ensler and and four men working to transform our collective story around men and masculinity: Tony Porter, co-founder of the national violence prevention organization A Call To Men, Indigenous activist Dallas Goldtooth, George Lipsitz, Black Studies scholar and professor emeritus at UC Santa Barbara; and Luke Charles Harris, co-founder of the African American Policy Forum. This is an episode of the Bioneers: Revolution from the Heart of Nature series. Visit the radio and podcast homepage to learn more.

Tomer Tzaban, a former Israeli counterterrorism operative who spent a decade conducting undercover missions in Gaza, has detailed his experiences in a podcast interview about his book, “The Ghosts of Rafah: An Undercover Counter-Terrorism Agent in the Heart of the Middle East Conflict.” Tzaban spoke with Alan Skorski on the Alan Skorski Reports podcast about his years with the elite Shimshon unit, where he served from 1986 to 1996. The unit operated undercover inside Gaza, with agents frequently assuming Arab identities and relying on disguises and carefully developed cover stories. Tzaban described operations that involved tracking terrorist suspects, preventing attacks and targeting members of armed groups. One operation involved a group of terrorists who, according to Tzaban, had disguised themselves as young Orthodox Jewish men as part of a plan to abduct Israeli soldiers and hold them for ransom. Tzaban also described an operation in which an intended target was located in a heavily populated area. The team abandoned the mission after a large number of children emerged from a nearby school, he said. Protecting civilians took precedence over completing the operation, consistent with the procedures under which the unit operated. Maintaining a convincing disguise required attention to details that went far beyond clothing and appearance. Tzaban said operatives had to understand local customs, speech patterns and even seemingly insignificant differences in daily life. He recalled that agents avoided strongly scented personal-care products because unfamiliar fragrances could make them appear out of place. Teams also worked with local Arabic speakers who could navigate regional dialects and social nuances. According to Tzaban, Gaza's different areas had distinct dialects, making language a potentially dangerous vulnerability. An operative could speak Arabic well and still attract attention by using words or pronunciation associated with another region. The conversation also touched on “Fauda,” the Israeli television series about undercover counterterrorism operatives. Tzaban said he knows several actors involved with the series and believes some of the show's early storylines drew heavily on the kinds of missions conducted by units such as Shimshon. His book recounts individual operations while also examining the personal cost of spending years working undercover. Tzaban described the constant pressure of maintaining a false identity and the psychological effects that could continue long after an operation ended. Tzaban also discussed security concerns in Europe, arguing that some extremist organizations have pursued strategies for decades that are now becoming more visible. He warned that Western countries, including the United States, should study those developments rather than wait until similar threats emerge at home. The interview concluded with a discussion of the Oct. 7, 2023, Hamas attack on Israel and the intelligence failures that preceded it. Tzaban said the attack represented a profound turning point for Israel and had consequences that extended far beyond the immediate security failure, changing the way many Israelis and Jews view the country's security and the threat posed by Hamas. “The Ghosts of Rafah” draws on Tzaban's experiences to provide a firsthand account of Israel's undercover counterterrorism operations in Gaza during the 1980s and 1990s.

As lifestyles evolve, so does home design. Homeowners want flexible spaces, more privacy, stronger connections to the outdoors and finishes that reflect their personal style. The result is a shift toward homes that aren’t just attractive but also work for the way people actually live. Kelley Collins, design studio manager with Ashton Woods, recently joined Carol Morgan on Atlanta Real Estate Forum Radio to discuss how thoughtful design can balance function, personality and timeless style — and why the best homes don’t necessarily follow the latest trend. Home Design Starts With How People Live “We always joke that your lighting is like jewelry for your favorite outfit,” Collins said. Lighting can transform a room, highlight architectural features and draw attention to artwork or other focal points. But good design goes beyond what catches the eye. It starts with understanding how people will use a space. That has become particularly important as more people work, study, exercise and spend time at home. Rooms that once served a single purpose now may need to accommodate a home office, classroom, playroom, workout area or guest space. Flex Rooms Give Homeowners More Options Flex rooms offer a clear example of home design adapting to changing needs. A home office today could become a study space for a child tomorrow. A playroom could eventually become a hobby room, exercise area or guest room. Adaptability matters even more for multigenerational households. Rising living costs have contributed to more families living with parents or in-laws, making privacy and separation increasingly important. Doors, finished basements and multipurpose rooms can help families accommodate more people without making everyone feel like they’re living on top of each other. For homebuyers, it’s worth looking beyond how a floor plan works today. Consider how a room could serve the household five or 10 years from now. Open Floor Plans Meet the Need for Privacy Open-concept living remains popular, but the way people use their homes has prompted a closer look at privacy. An open kitchen, dining and living area can make entertaining easier and create a strong sense of connection. But when several people work, study or relax at the same time, too much openness can become a challenge. Interior doors, pocket doors and strategically placed private rooms can provide some separation without giving up the benefits of an open layout. Rather than choosing between open and closed floor plans, homeowners increasingly want a balance between shared spaces and places to retreat. Personalization Should Go Beyond Trends Personalization plays an important role in the design process, but it looks different for every homeowner. Some buyers want to customize nearly every selection. Others prefer a more restrained palette and use one or two features, such as a distinctive backsplash or lighting fixture, to make the home feel like their own. The goal is to create a cohesive design that reflects the homeowner without relying too heavily on a short-lived trend. “If they do have that bold design or that style that they want to incorporate, they really do it with intention,” Collins said. That doesn’t mean homeowners need to avoid bold choices. Instead, they should consider how those choices fit into the rest of the home and whether they’ll still feel right years from now. Timeless Design Can Still Evolve Home design trends constantly change. Cabinet colors have moved from dark finishes to gray and white and are now shifting toward warmer tones. Light and medium wood tones and off-white finishes are gaining popularity as gray and stark white interiors become less dominant. Trend cycles make timeless design valuable. Buyers want their homes to feel current, but they also want to feel comfortable with their choices years after construction ends. A neutral foundation provides flexibility, while lighting, furnishings, artwork and hardware can add personality and allow homeowners to update their spaces over time. Design for Durability and Everyday Life A beautiful home also needs to hold up to everyday life. Flooring and countertops offer good examples. Natural hardwood remains popular, while engineered luxury vinyl flooring attracts buyers who value durability. Quartz continues to appeal to homeowners who appreciate its consistency and low maintenance, even as designers continue to value the character of natural stone. Aesthetics are only part of the decision. Families with children, pets or frequent guests may prioritize different materials than homeowners looking for a low-maintenance second home or an entertainment-focused space. The Kitchen Remains the Heart of the Home For all the changes in home design, some priorities remain remarkably consistent. In the kitchen, an island can provide food preparation space, seating, a gathering point for family and friends and a place for homework or casual conversation. Other features, such as spa-inspired showers, reflect the same desire to make everyday spaces more enjoyable. Ultimately, good design isn’t just about making a room look good. It should make the room work better, too. Trust the Design Process For buyers building a new home, the number of decisions can quickly become overwhelming. Flooring, cabinets, countertops, tile, lighting and fixtures all contribute to the final result. A design professional can help homeowners understand how individual selections work together and where to focus their investment. Instead of making every decision at once, buyers can work through selections step by step and build a cohesive design. The Future of Home Design Will Follow Lifestyle No one can predict exactly which colors, materials or architectural features will dominate home design five or 10 years from now. Trends will continue to change. What we can predict is that homes will continue to adapt to the people who live in them. Flexible rooms can accommodate changing needs. Private spaces can balance open gathering areas. Outdoor living can extend a home’s usable space. Personalization can make a house feel distinctly like its owners. The most enduring design principle may be the simplest: Start with how people live and design from there. The goal is to create a home that represents the homeowner so well that “10 years down the road they still love their home.” That may ultimately separate a home that simply follows a trend from one that continues to feel right long after the trend has passed.

In this six-part podcast series, we walk through Freya India's book GIRLS: Gen Z and the Commodification of Everything, examining how online culture has shaped young women and how Christian parents can respond with biblical truth. **This episode continues MATURE themes and is NOT recommended for children.** In this fifth episode on Chapter 5, “Detached,” Freya reveals how flirting, sexting, dating apps, hookups, and pornography have led to a grave state of relational and emotional detachment among Gen Z. Kelly summarizes Freya’s evidence and assertions about how online media and technology contributed to a generation feeling safer and more empowered alone. More importantly, she answers the question of: “how did we get here?” by examining what the Word of God says about sexual immorality and depravity. What is God’s sexual ethic? Why does it matter? And what can parents do to prepare Gen Alpha for the romantic relationship wasteland they are growing up into?

TakeawaysCasey Murph explains how Orsted, a Denmark-based wind and solar conglomerate, applied to take over the Arizona state grazing allotment his family has ranched for more than 100 years, and why he refused to give the company access through his private land.Casey makes the case that a full transition to renewable energy is not physically possible, pointing to the Nature Conservancy's Power of Place report, and argues for nuclear power and rooftop or parking lot solar instead of converting working rangeland.Amanda and Casey break down what any landowner can actually do when a company or government agency comes after their land: get educated, get local, get loud on social media, and don't wait for Washington to fix it for you.Summary of the EpisodeIn this episode of The Heart of Rural America, Amanda Radke sits down with Casey Murph, a cow-calf rancher in Navajo County, Arizona, whose family has run cattle on the same range since before Arizona was a state. Casey explains that since Governor Katie Hobbs took office in 2022 and created a task force to fast-track state land for renewable energy development, he has received repeated notices that solar companies have applied to take over parts of his grazing allotment. The company he's most concerned about is Orsted, a global wind and solar conglomerate based in Denmark and partially owned by the Danish government, which reached out asking for access through his private land to reach the isolated state ground behind his gate. Casey said no.Casey and Amanda walk through what that process looks like, the leverage he does and doesn't have, and why his cousins across the river already lost most of their ranch to a similar project. They also get into the bigger picture: why Casey believes the renewable energy transition as currently pitched is mathematically impossible, why nuclear and urban rooftop solar make more sense than converting rangeland, and why he thinks every rancher facing something like this needs to get on social media and tell their story, even if they'd rather not be in front of a camera.Presented by Bid on Beef | CK6 Consulting | CK6 Source | Real Tuff Livestock Equipment | Redmond RealSalt | Dirt Road Radio | All American Angus Beef | Radke Land & CattleUse code RADKE for $10 off your next All American Angus Beef order at www.BidOnBeef.comSave on Redmond Real Salt with code RADKE at https://shop.redmondagriculture.com/Check out Amanda's agricultural children's books here: https://amandaradke.com/collections/amandas-booksLearn more about Bulletproofing Your Direct-To-Consumer Beef Enterprise: https://amandaradke.com/products/bulletproof-your-beef-businessResources for producers: the USDA Law Fair website and americanlandandlegacy.org
Transform and roll... well, sort of!This week on The Insanely Dangerous Retropodshow, Dangerous Dave travels back to the toy-filled world of 1984 to revisit the transforming robots that dared to take on Transformers...GoBots!Were they an underrated part of 80s toy history, or were they always destined to live in the shadow of Optimus Prime and Megatron?Dangerous Dave begins by firing up What Happened Way Back When?, revisiting five songs, five movies and five TV shows from 1984, including Ghostbusters, The Terminator, The Karate Kid, Wham!, Van Halen and The Real Ghostbusters. Then Retro Headlines looks back at some of the major stories making news in Britain and America during an unforgettable year.DANGEROUS DEEP DIVE – THE HISTORY OF GOBOTSDave takes an extended look at the origins of GoBots, beginning with Bandai's Japanese Machine Robo toys before Tonka transformed them into the GoBots brand.We remember the heroic Guardians, led by Leader-1, and the evil Renegades, commanded by the brilliantly named Cy-Kill.There are memories of Turbo, Scooter, Small Foot, Crasher and Cop-Tur as Dave explores why the smaller and often cheaper GoBots became such popular pocket-money toys.We also revisit Challenge of the GoBots, the Hanna-Barbera cartoon that attempted to build a universe around the characters, and examine what happened when Transformers arrived and completely changed the transforming-robot battle.Was Transformers genuinely better...Or did superior characters, storytelling and marketing simply leave GoBots behind?DANGEROUS DETOUR – THE GOLDEN AGE OF 80s TOYSWhy were the 1980s so ridiculously good for toys?Dave remembers an era dominated by He-Man, Transformers, MASK, Thundercats, G.I. Joe, Ghostbusters, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Visionaries, Bravestarr and, of course, GoBots.It was a time when the cartoon, comic and toy aisle all became part of one enormous childhood universe.BACK IN THE ADSWe're heading back to British television for another classic commercial as Dave remembers the wonderfully bizarre Smash Martians.Why were aliens laughing at humans for peeling potatoes?How did “For Mash Get Smash” become such a memorable slogan?And why do so many people still remember those little metal Martians decades later?RETRO RUMBLE – GOBOTS VS TRANSFORMERSIt's the battle we've been waiting for.GoBots vs Transformers!The two transforming robot giants go head-to-head across toys, characters, cartoons, value for money and pure nostalgia.GoBots put up a surprisingly strong fight...But can Leader-1 and Cy-Kill really defeat Optimus Prime and Megatron?DANGEROUSLY UNDERRATEDDave gives Challenge of the GoBots another chance and argues that the cartoon deserves to be remembered as more than simply “that other transforming robot show.”ONE SEASON WONDERWe also revisit the wonderfully 80s animated series Pole Position, with its high-tech vehicles, crime-solving adventures and connections to the classic arcade game.TOYBOX TIME MACHINEThe Toybox Time Machine opens once again as Dave remembers Voltron and the brilliant idea of taking five robotic lions and combining them into one enormous warrior.And then...It's time for Gaz.GAZ'S RAPID RETRO REVIEW – GOBOTSGaz has heard Dave defending GoBots for most of the episode...And he's having absolutely none of it.GAZ:"GoBots? Sorry, Dange... I didn't like them then and I don't like them now!They were the transforming robots you got when you really wanted Transformers.Leader-1? He's no Optimus Prime.Cy-Kill? He's basically an angry motorbike.And Scooter? Don't even get me started on Scooter.Transformers had Optimus Prime, Megatron, Starscream, Soundwave and Grimlock. GoBots had... well... GoBots.Were the toys cheap? Yes.Were they easy to transform? Yes.But that's because there wasn't much bloody transforming to do!I know you've spent this episode trying to convince everyone that GoBots deserve another chance, Dange, but I'm not buying it.For me... Transformers win every single time.Gaz's Rapid Retro Rating: ⭐⭐ – 2 out of 5"Two stars. And I'm probably being generous. Back to you, Dange!"THE DANGER ZONEAfter Gaz completely destroys them, Dave enters The Danger Zone to mount one final defence of GoBots.They may never have matched Transformers for characters, storytelling or longevity, but Dave argues that history has treated them unfairly.They were affordable.They were fun.They were easy to collect.And for plenty of kids, a GoBot was their first transforming robot.Dave awards the franchise an impressive 27 out of 30 Danger Rating...Even if Gaz would probably like to deduct about twenty points from that score!HALL OF DANGERFinally, despite Gaz's objections, GoBots enter the Hall of Danger for their contribution to the transforming robot craze and their place in 1980s toy history.Love them...Hate them...Or still wish your parents had bought you a Transformer instead...GoBots are part of the story of the 1980s.And that's why they're worth remembering.NEXT TIME...Season 9 continues as Dangerous Dave swaps transforming robots for synthesisers and heads into the incredible catalogue of...PET SHOP BOYSFrom West End Girls and It's a Sin to Always on My Mind, Heart, Being Boring and Go West, we'll explore the history, albums, greatest hits and legacy of Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe.The Insanely Dangerous Retropodshow – keeping the greatest decades alive, one dangerously nostalgic episode at a time.

Today on the Invest In Her podcast, host Catherine Gray talks with Justine Reiss, a speaker, storyteller, humanitarian, professional voiceover artist, breast cancer survivor, and recipient of the Heart of Humanity Award. Justine is dedicated to helping women reclaim their voices, stories, and futures. Her humanitarian work includes partnerships with the Nguzo Women & Youth Foundation in Tanzania, the Pink Lady Foundation, CouldYou? Cup, and local organizations in Kenya to advance reproductive health education, menstrual equity, and access to essential resources for women and girls. Through writing, filmmaking, public speaking, and documentary development, she also amplifies the experiences of women whose stories often go unheard. In this episode, Justine explains how period poverty can force girls to miss or leave school, enter early marriages, and face exploitation simply because they lack access to menstrual products. She and Catherine discuss the transformative potential of reusable menstrual cups, which can last seven to ten years, as well as the importance of community education and training to reduce shame and create lasting change. Justine also shares stories from her humanitarian work in Kenya and Tanzania, her commitment to ethical filmmaking, and an upcoming documentary project centered on women rebuilding their lives after leaving a high-control religious community. Their conversation highlights how courage, collaboration, and storytelling can help women overcome fear, reclaim their voices, and become the authors of their own lives. https://www.businessofher.com Show Her The Money – https://showherthemoneymovie.com She Angel Investors – https://www.sheangelinvestors.com Follow Us On Social Facebook @sheangelinvestors Twitter (X) @sheangelsinvest Instagram @sheangelinvestors & @catherinegray_investinher LinkedIn @catherinelgray & @sheangels

Always consult your physician before making changes to your diet, exercise routine, or medications.TL;DR* The CDC's top 10 causes of death account for roughly 74% of all deaths in the US each year, and up to 80% of chronic disease is estimated to be driven by lifestyle factors — diet, movement, sleep, stress, and toxin exposure. * This episode goes cause by cause (heart disease, cancer, COVID/respiratory disease, accidents, stroke, Alzheimer's, diabetes, kidney disease, flu/pneumonia, and suicide) and lays out what the peer-reviewed research says about preventing, slowing, or reversing each one.* Ready to build your own plan? Book a free Metabolic Blueprint Session →The List, and the Number That Should Keep You Up at NightAccording to the CDC, ten conditions account for about 74% of all deaths in the United States every year:* Heart disease* Cancer* COVID-19 / chronic lower respiratory diseases* Accidents (unintentional injuries)* Stroke* Alzheimer's disease* Diabetes* Kidney disease* Influenza and pneumonia* SuicideHere's the part that doesn't get said enough: research estimates that up to 80% of chronic disease is driven by lifestyle factors — diet, movement, sleep, stress, and toxin exposure. Those aren't destinies. They're decisions, and decisions can change.A landmark paper in the Journal of the American Medical Association found that poor diet alone accounts for more deaths in the US than tobacco use. The fork may be more dangerous than the cigarette. And yet, most patients who end up on four to six medications were never once asked what they eat, how they sleep, or whether they move their bodies before those prescriptions were written. That's the difference between a sick care system and a healthcare system.Heart Disease and Stroke: The Most Reversible Disease We KnowHeart disease kills one American every 34 seconds and has held the #1 spot for over a century. But it's also one of the most reversible conditions in medicine.In 1990, Dr. Dean Ornish's landmark Lifestyle Heart Trial showed that intensive lifestyle changes — diet, exercise, stress management, and social support — could reverse coronary artery disease without drugs or surgery. Arterial plaques reduced. Blood flow improved. Chest pain decreased. A 2019 study in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology confirmed it: a plant-predominant diet, regular aerobic exercise, not smoking, and a healthy weight reduced cardiovascular risk by over 80%.What that looks like in practice:* A Mediterranean or whole-food, plant-based diet rich in omega-3s and antioxidants (this isn't the only diet that works — it's the broadest evidence-backed baseline)* Zone 2 cardio (low-intensity aerobic work, three to five times a week — a brisk walk counts)* Managing chronic inflammation, the real driver of arterial plaque formation* Reducing refined sugar and seed oils, which damage the endothelial lining of the arteries* Prioritizing sleep, since poor sleep spikes cortisol and directly harms the heartStroke follows the same playbook: control blood pressure through diet, exercise, and stress reduction. The DASH diet in particular has been shown in multiple studies to lower blood pressure as effectively as medication in many patients.Cancer: 30–50% Preventable, and Possibly More Metabolic Than GeneticTo be clear, this isn't a claim about curing cancer — it's about how much prevention research is available and underused. The World Health Organization estimates that 30–50% of cancers are preventable. The American Institute for Cancer Research has identified lifestyle factors that dramatically reduce risk across multiple cancer types:* Diet. A 2022 meta-analysis in The Lancet linked poor dietary patterns — low fiber, low fruit/vegetable intake, high processed meat — to one in five cancer deaths globally.* Obesity. Excess weight is now the second-leading risk factor for cancer after smoking, because fat tissue is metabolically active and produces hormones like estrogen and inflammatory cytokines that fuel cancer growth.* Exercise. A 2019 study of over 1.4 million people found higher physical activity was associated with lower risk across 13 cancer types, including breast, colon, and endometrial cancer.* Fasting and metabolic health. Emerging research on intermittent fasting and time-restricted eating shows it can lower insulin-like growth factor, a key promoter of cancer cell proliferation.* Toxin reduction. Chronic low-grade exposure to pesticides, plastics (BPA, phthalates), and environmental pollutants has been linked to increased cancer risk. Choosing organic where possible, filtering water and air, and reducing plastic in cookware and storage all matter.There's also a deeper shift happening in how researchers understand cancer itself. It's long been treated primarily as a genetic disease, but the evidence is increasingly pointing toward cancer as a metabolic disease. Dr. Thomas Seyfried at Boston College has done groundbreaking work showing that cancer cells overwhelmingly rely on glucose and glutamine fermentation for energy — which is why a ketogenic or low-glycemic approach may help starve cancer cells while protecting healthy ones. The research is still evolving, but it's compelling.Think of your body like a garden. You can water it, enrich the soil, and pull the weeds — or you can dump sugar and chemicals on it and wonder why nothing grows right. Disease doesn't happen to you. It grows in an environment you create, consciously or not. The good news: you can change that environment starting today.Alzheimer's: “Type 3 Diabetes”Alzheimer's is rising, and it's terrifying to watch someone go through it. But emerging science shows it has a strong lifestyle and metabolic component — researchers now sometimes call it “type 3 diabetes” because of the profound link between insulin resistance and neurodegeneration.Dr. Dale Bredesen's ReCODE Protocol, published in the Journal of Aging, showed that a multimodal lifestyle intervention — diet, exercise, sleep optimization, hormone balancing, and stress reduction — reversed early cognitive decline in the majority of patients treated. In his 2014 case series, 9 of 10 patients with early Alzheimer's or mild cognitive impairment showed measurable improvement, with several returning to work.Key strategies from the research:* Sleep is non-negotiable. The brain's glymphatic (waste clearance) system activates primarily during sleep, flushing out amyloid beta plaque. Poor sleep means plaque buildup.* Exercise. A 2020 study showed aerobic exercise increases BDNF (brain-derived neurotrophic factor) — essentially fertilizer for neurons — and reduces dementia risk by up to 35%.* Mediterranean-MIND diet. Shown to slow cognitive aging by an estimated 7.5 years in adherent individuals.* Blood sugar management. Insulin resistance in the brain disrupts its ability to use glucose for energy, effectively starving neurons.* Social connection. Harvard's 80-year longitudinal study found relationship quality was the single strongest predictor of cognitive health and longevity in old age.Type 2 Diabetes and Kidney Disease: One Disease Driving AnotherOver 37 million Americans have type 2 diabetes, and another 96 million are pre-diabetic. Here's the part that surprises people: type 2 diabetes is reversible in the majority of cases, and this isn't controversial — the science is overwhelming.The 2019 DiRECT trial, published in The Lancet, found that nearly half of type 2 diabetics achieved full remission through an intensive dietary intervention alone, with no medication. Other studies using low-carbohydrate and very-low-calorie diets have replicated these results consistently.Diabetic nephropathy — kidney damage from chronically high blood sugar — is the leading cause of kidney failure in the US. Control the upstream issue (blood sugar and metabolic dysfunction) and you protect the downstream organ.The diabetes reversal framework from the research:* Dramatically reduce refined carbohydrates and added sugars to blunt insulin spikes and reduce fat storage in the liver and pancreas* Practice time-restricted eating or intermittent fasting to improve insulin sensitivity* Add resistance training — muscle is your biggest glucose sink, so more muscle means better blood sugar control* Reduce visceral fat (the fat around and inside your organs), a key driver of insulin resistance and inflammationIf this list feels like a lot, that's fair. But it's not about blame — it's about empowerment. You have more control over your health outcomes than the medical system has typically told you.Respiratory Disease, Flu, and PneumoniaChronic lower respiratory diseases like COPD and emphysema are largely driven by smoking and air quality. Quitting smoking remains the single most impactful intervention here, full stop.For flu and pneumonia risk, immune resilience matters: vitamin D optimization, zinc and elderberry, and gut microbiome health (roughly 70% of your immune system lives in your gut). Even mild sleep deprivation has been shown to quadruple susceptibility to viral infection.Suicide and Mental HealthThis is the cause of death nobody wants to talk about, but it's in the top 10 — and it's the leading cause of death for men under 50, and the second-leading cause of death for people ages 10–34.While this is complex and deeply personal, research points to several lifestyle levers:* Exercise functions as an effective antidepressant, largely through endorphin release* The gut-brain axis matters more than most people realize — over 75% of the body's serotonin is produced in the gut, so gut health directly shapes brain chemistry* Social connection and purpose. Viktor Frankl's Man's Search for Meaning, written while he was in a Nazi concentration camp, captured this: meaning and connection to purpose are essential for survival, and perspective shapes both physiology and outcome* Reducing alcohol, a central nervous system depressant that worsens anxiety and depression despite short-term reliefIf you or someone you love is struggling, crisis hotlines are available 24/7. There's often a reason it's happening, and there's often a way through it.The Common ThreadAcross every single one of these conditions — heart disease, stroke, cancer, Alzheimer's, diabetes, kidney disease, respiratory disease, immune function, mental health — the same five levers keep showing up: diet, exercise, sleep, toxin reduction, and blood sugar balance.Your daily habits are either building disease or building resilience. Every meal, every walk, every night of good sleep compounds — just like interest in a bank account.This Week's Action Plan* Do a food audit. For the next three days, write down everything you eat. No judgment, just awareness — you can't change what you can't see.* Walk 30 minutes a day. It lowers blood pressure, improves insulin sensitivity, boosts BDNF, and reduces cortisol. Simple, not easy — do it anyway.* Optimize your sleep. Consistent bedtime, dark room, cool temperature, no screens.* Get your labs done. Know your fasting glucose, A1C, CRP, vitamin D, triglycerides, and LDL — these are your early warning systems.* Address one stress source this week. A conversation you need to have, a boundary you need to set, or ten minutes of breathwork. Chronic stress is silently killing you — take action on it.Ready for a Real Plan?If you're ready to take your health seriously and want a clear roadmap instead of guesswork, book a Metabolic Blueprint Session. In 30–45 minutes, we'll walk through your top three priority areas and how programs like the Metabolic Momentum Accelerator, the Cellular Reboot Accelerator, and the Total Health Restore Protocols can help.Schedule your complimentary consult →Know someone this could help?

A sequel to a game with a smaller but dedicated fanbase over a decade later was always going to be a tough task, but it was also done by a team literally in the middle of a war. Considering that challenge, it's amazing that this game is a sequel that lives up to original almost perfectly.

What if it were also a sacred opportunity to glorify God, disciple your family, and welcome others with the love of Christ?In this episode of the Kingdom Cross Roads Podcast, T.S. Wright welcomes Gina Romero, author of Welcome Home: A Guide to Homemaking from the Heart. Gina shares her powerful testimony of walking away from her faith, suffering a debilitating spinal injury, and ultimately returning to God as a modern-day prodigal.Gina also recounts the difficult pregnancy and premature birth of her daughter, Estella, who arrived three months early and weighed only one pound. Through this season of trauma, prayer, and dependence upon God, Gina began to recognize His greater purpose for her life.Years later, God called her to write a book about homemaking. Gina responded in obedience, completing the manuscript in six weeks. Welcome Home became a number-one Amazon new release and launched a growing ministry dedicated to helping women approach their homes, families, and responsibilities from a biblical perspective.In this conversation, Gina and T.S. discuss:Returning to God after a prodigal seasonTrusting God through pain, trauma, and uncertaintyRecognizing and obeying God's callingHomemaking as a ministry rather than a pursuit of perfectionBiblical hospitality and welcoming others as Jesus didStewarding the home, finances, possessions, and family memoriesCreating practical household and organizational systemsUsing family meals to disciple childrenLearning from the Proverbs 31 and Titus 2 womenUnderstanding the complementary roles of men and womenFollowing God's calling at home, in ministry, and in the marketplaceAllowing ministry and responsible income-producing work to coexistGina reminds us that Christian homemaking is not defined by the labels “traditional” or “progressive.” It begins with seeking the Lord, listening to His voice, and faithfully following the unique assignment He has prepared for each person.As Gina explains, others may teach us how to create beautiful things in our homes, but only God can teach us who we should become while doing them.Your story is for God's glory. Whether your calling leads you into the home, the boardroom, the ministry, or the marketplace, the central question remains: Are you seeking God, listening to His direction, and following where He leads?CALL TO ACTIONHow can your home become a place of discipleship, hospitality, and God's presence?Begin by asking the Lord how He wants to use your home, your family, and your personal story for His glory.

Welcome back to Build Your Bible Habit! Proverbs chapter 11 is loaded with instructions on how to live in a way that pleases God. Righteousness is blessed by God. In contrast, wickedness leads to destruction. We don't use terms like "righteousness" or "wickedness" in everyday speech, but these are two polar opposites that happen daily. Righteousness is living in accordance with God's Word. Wickedness moves us away from walking with God, trading godliness for evil practices. Here's a verse to remind us of the contrast: "The righteousness of the perfect shall direct his way: but the wicked shall fall by his own wickedness."

The burgers are so good that they're causing traffic jams. At least that's what's happening in Culver City, where the line of cars at spots like In-N-Out Burger spills beyond the parking lot and into the street. Now officials there are trying to ban new drive-thrus outright. These bans are not an entirely new phenomenon — San Luis Obispo banned drive-thrus back in 1982 — but they're getting newfound attention as recent pushes gain national attention. We'll look at California's role in the rise of fast food drive-thrus and examine whether the current moment could be the beginning of the end for a fast food staple. Guests: Shawn Hubler, Los Angeles bureau chief, The New York Times Adam Chandler, food columnist, The Wall Street Journal; author of “Drive-Thru Dreams: A Journey Through the Heart of America's Fast-Food Kingdom” Learn more about your ad choices.

"Send us a message! (questions, feedback, etc.)"In the Spring of 2026, Stacey and Greg were honored to record a few episodes for Return to Heart, the podcast of Tin Man Ministries. We're posting these episodes here, with the microphones turned around, with the title "Who's Asking the Questions Now?" Last week you heard Phil talking with Stacey (solo), and next week will feature a conversation with Greg.In this episode Tin Man's clinical director Phil Herndon talked with Stacey and Greg to discuss childhood experiences, marriage expectations, coping strategies, addiction, betrayal trauma, and the long road of recovery (individually and together).Addiction that leads to sexual betrayal is complicated. It's a horrible breach of trust and does colossal damage to a relationship. AND, often that damage is the last thing the betraying partner had set out to do. The early wounds that contribute to addiction were often having their effect long before the relationship started. Healing is a long journey, and reconciliation is possible, but not guaranteed.We hope this conversation will bring hope, encouragement, and things you can work through with God, your partner, or a trusted friend.Thank you to Tin Man Ministries for their permission to rebroadcast the episode here on What We Really Want!#staceyoliver #staceyandgregoliver #gregoliver #awaken #awakenrecovery #philherndon #tinmanministries #returntoheartpodcast #sexualaddiction #sexaddiction #betrayaltrauma #sexualbetrayal #healing #recovery #therapy #connection #rootsretreat #rootsretreatwomensworkshopTin Man Ministries websiteReturn to Heart podcast (Apple Podcasts)Return to Heart podcast (Spotify) Support the showAwaken websiteRoots Retreat Men's IntensiveRoots Retreat Women's WorkshopAwaken Men & Women's support meeting info (including virtual)

Through Peter's vision and the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, God makes it clear that the gospel of Jesus Christ is for every nation and people. In this study, we discuss: Cornelius and his prayers and generosity before God Peter's vision of the clean and unclean animals What “What God has made clean, do not call common” means in context God showing no partiality between Jew and Gentile Peter preaching the gospel to Cornelius and his household The Holy Spirit falling upon the Gentiles The Gentiles speaking in tongues and magnifying God The baptism of Cornelius and his household Acts 10 marks a major turning point in the Book of Acts: God shows that no nation or ethnicity is excluded from the gospel.

Finding a mentor often brings immense pressure, especially when you realize you have no idea what you're actually looking for - or worse, who to trust with your growth. If you've ever felt the tension of wanting to grow as a leader but feeling stuck, this episode is for you. In Day 2 of our mentoring series, Amy Ayala and I went deep into the "heart" of mentorship. It's not just about who has the biggest platform or the most followers on social media; it's about character, resilience, and that prophetic "X-factor" that you can't teach. Amy and I talked openly about the importance of being "seen" by a mentor and why loyalty, honor, and the willingness to put in the "reps" are what actually prepare you for your next season. Whether you are looking to be mentored or you are ready to start pouring into someone else, we're breaking down what it actually looks like to lead well. You cannot be what you don't see, so let's talk about how to open your eyes to the right potential. Tag us @biancajuarezofficial and @amylynnettee on social and tell me your biggest takeaway.

The people that interact with customers day in and day out are truly the ones that make this business what it is. So, for this episode we're handing the show over to a group of Nordstrom Personal Stylists that unapologetically embrace our “Owner-at-Heart” ethos. It should be said that the people you're about to meet are some of our very best sellers in the entire company. These conversations were recorded at our annual Platinum Pacesetters Dinner – which is an evening of fun and appreciation for our top-performing 1% of sellers company-wide. We pulled a few of them aside to chat one-on-one with each other, and discuss the secrets to their success. It's truly inspiring to hear the stories and motivations of these talented individuals who thrive on building meaningful and lasting relationships with customers all in their own way. First you'll hear from Kathy Brown and Adam McAllister, both personal stylists at our Bellevue store right outside of Seattle. After that we'll share a conversation between Jaycee Queen, from our Century City store in Los Angeles, and Amanda Schwartz from our store in Nashville. But before that, Pete sits down to have a quick chat with our Vice President of Selling Programs at Nordstrom, Jessica Cloutier – who you heard back in episode 63 – who's going to share a little context around what it means for our stylists to be “Owners at Heart”. Thanks for tuning in to episode 116. We hope you enjoy it! Did you know that YOU can be on The Nordy Pod? This show isn't just a one-way conversation. We want to hear about what Nordstrom looks like through your eyes. Share your Nordstrom experience, good or bad, by giving us a call and leaving a voicemail at: 206.594.0526, or send an email to nordypodcast@nordstrom.com to be a part of the conversation! And, be sure to follow us on Instagram @thenordypod to stay up to date on new episodes, announcements and more.
Claude Silver is Chief Heart Officer at VaynerMedia, where she's spent 12 years building culture under Gary Vaynerchuk, and author of the new book Be Yourself at Work: The Groundbreaking Power of Showing Up, Standing Out, and Leading from the Heart. In this conversation, Claude opens up about the 93-day wilderness expedition in the Colorado Rockies at age 19 that taught her she could choose the voice in her own head, a lesson that still shapes how she leads today. She and Eric dig into the real difference between authenticity and oversharing at work, why "emotional optimism" is the hardest skill for leaders to build, how she managed six months in a workplace that wasn't safe for her to be herself, and what Gary Vaynerchuk is actually like behind the public persona. They also trade honest stories about the personal cost of writing a book, for Claude, two years of COVID-era starts and stops; for Eric, a marriage that quietly took the hit while he wrote his own. This show is dedicated to Claude's journey, this conversation is what we make it. This is Counsel Culture. Learn more at www.ericbrooker.com | https://www.claudesilver.com/
