JOIN SHERI HORN HASAN @ FOR THIS WEEK'S ASTROLOGICALLY SPEAKING PODCAST WHICH DROPS MAY 23 @ https://www.karmicevolution.com/astrologically-speaking This week's podcast begins with a look at the chart of former president Joe Biden since his shocking prostate cancer diagnosis was announced May 18, just after the exact Sun/Uranus conjunction in Taurus on May 17. We take a deep dive into his horoscope, starting with his Progressed Lunar New Moon @ 1'30 Aquarius on May 5, 2019, through to the previous & current opposition to his 12th House Scorpio Sun by Uranus in Taurus as it transits his 6th House of health.  We posit that Biden's journey from winning the presidency in 2020 & helping restore America to full health during the Covid-19 pandemic, to his current announcement of metastasized cancer, symbolizes the current “ill health” of the U.S. In other words, that Biden's sudden shocking announcement of previously unknown cancer is awakening Americans to the same "weakening" as part of the trajectory occurring within their nation. How do we know this? Because we're under the auspices now of the current Pluto return triggered essentially since the January 6, 2021, assault on the Capitol, which occurred a year before its exact return in February 2022. An insurrection incited & caused by sore loser Donald Trump in the November 3, 2020, presidential election based on false claims of election fraud—just as we approached the new Jupiter/Saturn synodic cycle on December 31, 2020, at 0'30” AQ which foretold a change in leadership.We look at how the Pluto return is annihilating the former legal rights of individuals here in conjunction with the current transiting Jupiter square to the transiting nodal axis, particularly to the Virgo South Node. And how the Mercury-ruled Virgo archetype affects our health as related to the recently passed reconciliation bill in the U.S. House of Representative which seeks “perfection” through numbers to balance the budget, yet attempts to do so by denying average citizens their previous right to government-funded health care.And that's just the tip of the iceberg, as the House bill now goes to the Senate as we approach Saturn's entrance into Mars-ruled Aries on May 24 & the Gemini New Moon & Chiron/Eris conjunction in Aries on May 26. Whether the Senate discusses reducing the health burden the House placed on individuals to pay more to take care of their health needs or not remains to be seen.But one thing is clear: The Saturn ingress into Mars--as Saturn begins his slow journey toward an exact conjunction to Neptune in Aries on February 26, 2026--we have the opportunity to awaken to the amount of wounding & chaos already caused under the guise of “fiscal responsibility.” This hypocritical claim by the U.S. Congress persists despite the fact that the current legislation wants to extend tax cuts for corporations and the rich at the expense of those in the lower income brackets to the tune of increasing our national debt by $3.8 Trillion over the next decade.That this has weakened our previous alliances & global partnerships—part and parcel of the waxing Saturn/Pluto 36-year cycle in Capricorn begun on January 12, 2020--becomes obvious as we're also still under the auspices of the currently waxing Jupiter/Saturn cycle in Aquarius begun December 31, 2020.We look at the prescient words of renowned astrologer Stephen Arroyo written in 1984 about the meaning of the change from 200 years of Jupiter/Saturn cycles in earth to air, the latter of which began in 1980 in Libra. Join us to learn more about what this “grand mutation” has meant between then & now, despite the 2000 conjunction in earth again & its return to the air element for the long term in 2020. (Hint: It concerns the “reestablishment of old-style capitalism,” & the redistribution of wealth from the poorest to the richest.) Now, as we approach Saturn's entrance into Aries, we might look at the bright side of this otherwise potentially frustrating & depressing combination of archetypal energies. On the one hand, we have the potential for an increasingly slow reduction of our rights to free speech (& more), & the resulting depression that can set in when we think we have no recourse but to bury the frustration of being told to shut up and take it.However, on the other hand, we can use this transit to devise carefully thought out long-term plans to regain our rights. Saturn in Mars-ruled Aries can slow the warrior's roll just enough to avoid impatient or impetuous moves & to direct our energies toward succeeding through hard work.The 6'06” Gemini New Moon, at 8:02 p.m. PT & 11:02 p.m. ET on May 26, can help us plant seeds to gain new perspectives by listening to the facts. Since Gemini likes to collect & pass information, but not to analyze it for conclusions, we can use our mental adaptability to consider alternative viewpoints now about what's causing our current state of chaos and how it's wounded us. The Gemini archetype is related to tactics. However, it's Jupiter-ruled Sagittarius, its archetypal opposite energy, that plans overall strategy. So, in the short term now, we can begin to discuss how to plan to regain our rights in the future, courtesy of Saturn's entrance into Mars. The upcoming Sun/Mercury conjunction in Gemini, occurring late on May 29/early May 30, depending on your time zone, may reveal more information from on high in the form of a major announcement of some kind. And this, in turn, may further awaken us to how much the recent discord & chaos has wounded us--via wounded healer Chiron's conjunction to dwarf planet Eris in Aries-- & how we've seemingly been stymied over the past few months by chaos-induced inertia. Tune in for a deep discussion on all of this--& more Astro News You Can Use--starting today, May 23!@ https://www.karmicevolution.com/astrologically-speaking See you then! Namaste…

Read transcriptGather ‘round, Dragon Ball devotees and gluttons for punishment! This week on Play Comics, we're subjecting ourselves to the digital equivalent of getting hit by Frieza's Death Beam repeatedly-Dragon Ball Z Taiketsu for the Game Boy Advance. Imagine taking the most explosive anime franchise in history and cramming it into a game with all the fiery intensity of a damp firecracker. Spoiler alert: This isn't a battle for glory-it's a battle for survival against one of the most bafflingly awful licensed games ever conceived. Joining me in this masochistic quest is Andrew Young from Behold!, who's agreed to lend his expertise (and his remaining sanity) to dissect this pixelated travesty. Together, we'll answer the burning question: How did a game about planet-destroying superhumans end up feeling as thrilling as watching paint dry on Master Roshi's houseboat? Hint: It involves more clipping issues than Yamcha's career and combat mechanics flatter than Krillin's scalp. From animations that resemble a PowerPoint presentation gone rogue to a soundtrack that sounds like a kazoo orchestra trapped in a washing machine, Taiketsu doesn't just drop the ball-it spikes it into the core of the Earth, unleashes a Spirit Bomb of disappointment, and then forgets to animate the explosion. Whether you're here for the schadenfreude or just morbid curiosity, grab your Dragon Radar and a stiff drink. This episode's gonna hurt. A lot. Learn such things as: What happens when the developers are put not only behind the 8 ball, but also in front of a really high cliff on a windy day and that cliff is made of ice? So I guess games really do need a story don't they? Even if it's just a hand wave at one. Is this the new worst representation of the comic source material? And so much more! You can find Andrew by looking at the Behold! account on Twitter or of course the Behold! website. You should especially check out the episode looking at X-Men 97 because I love that series and need something good in my life, and the episode looking at Fan4stick because it has me in it.

Is it innovation... or just Wall Street's way of sneaking in high fees through the back door? Plus, we roll into Doug's trivia, a TikTok Minute that flips the script on a certain “draft pick,” and, of course, a few stories that prove—yet again—that golf is no game for the frugal. “Am I YOLO-ing or just broke?” Why framing matters more than frugality From scarcity to satisfaction: How one moment in Paris changed Leisa's relationship with money You call that a tip?

So… apparently therapists are being replaced by chatbots now. Clients are rolling into sessions with ChatGPT transcripts like,“This helped more than our last three appointments. Oh, and it's free.”Yeah. That's happening. And if you're even mildly freaking out, you're not being dramatic. You're being awake.In this episode, I'm not here to sprinkle affirmations over your fear or convince you to go become a tech bro. I'm here to talk about the real threat to therapists — and spoiler: it's not AI.It's being invisible. Complacent. Undifferentiated in a profession that taught us to color inside the lines… while the world evolved around us.We're talking about what AI actually means for the future of therapy — and how to stay radically human, relevant, and in integrity while everything changes.

Today I'm fired up from the Spring Workshop and a pretty fantastic concert we had yesterday with my choir in Cookeville, tn. We will share the stories, the people, the late-night brainstorms, the amazing food, and yes... the sea sponges.

 - Also, I GOT BROCCOLI. Weekly Shopping Report I made a trip on Tuesday to Food City for a couple of bags of flour and a 22 lb. bag of Meow Mix (that our cats ask for by name); and Walgreens for the goop I put in my eye at night (“Stye”) so it doesn't dry out. Only the first Tuesday in the month is Walgreens' “senior day,” when Grumpy Old Men (and women) get a discount.
For our usual trip, the weather gave us a clear stretch amidst the bands of heavy rain on Thursday. Most people must have decided to wait, as there was little traffic.
Dollar Tree was first. They're finally out of the big non-carbonated Monsters I was getting, but there were plenty of other choices. Stock levels throughout the store looked good. Sonia has been able to find some craft items in there lately.
We also went to Hobby Lobby for some acrylic paint. We didn't walk around the whole store looking at other stock, but I didn't see empty sections or anything else odd. Things may change with the tariffs on Dragon Country, but not yet. They were “normal-busy” with a short wait to check out.
The online price of a 2x4x8 stud at Home Depot is still $3.85.
Aldi was last. We found everything we wanted. Staple prices were: bread (20 oz. white): $1.39; eggs: $4.97; whole milk: $2.92; heavy cream: $5.29; OJ: $4.09; butter: $3.49 (-); bacon: $3.99; potatoes: $4.39; sugar: $2.99; flour: $2.35; and 80% ground beef: $4.59.
Untainted regular gasoline at Weigels is still $3.59/gallon. Operation Independence I had a great conversation with John Pugliano this week that's helping bring clarity to the next big project here at the Holler. I'm still sorting out the details, but it's one of those moments where a few things click into place, and you realize what really needs to happen next. Hint: It starts with some RV spots. Main Topic: Behind the Scenes at the LFTN Spring Workshop Today I want to pull back the curtain on what really makes the Spring Workshop special—not the agenda, not the official sessions, but the stuff that makes it unforgettable.
 Glenn's Rum – He always shows up with something we've never tried. This year? It was memorable. Let's just leave it at that. Carnivore Scotch Duck Eggs – Y'all, the food. This isn't your standard workshop fare. It's duck eggs. It's bacon. It's food that fuels you for real work. Alan Booker measuring brix – Alan showed me how to measure brix in my plants, gave me a compliment, then called my leaves "aphid food." And you know what? He was right. Patrick Roehrman's precision strike – My one-of-a-kind MT Knives kitchen knife got used to slice a carpenter bee out of the air. No, really. While it was flying. Emily Zanotti Skyles and the plantain spit war – She left fired up about wild edibles. Her kids? They took that knowledge and turned it into backyard ammo. The greenhouse swim spa debate – We planned to function-stack a greenhouse over the swim spa… and ended up realizing Nicole just needs to bury her electrical lines already. Ian's moment – On his way home, Ian stopped by his family land and decided: it's time. That's the kind of clarity these weekends bring. John Pugliano and Meshtastic – He helped all of us finally understand how Meshtastic works—and why it matters. Leos' pop-up blacksmithing – Did I mention we had a surprise forge session? Because of course we did. Glenn's hamburgers – Day one. Fire. Flavor. No notes. Gavin and the birds – Gavin wandered through the holler like a nature monk with binoculars, pointing out the birds we miss every day. Jack Spirko's bioreactor breakthrough – Sometimes the right fencing and weed cloth are all it takes to spark a better compost design. Community eggs – Between scotch eggs, scrambles, and three separate egg suppliers, we fed the holler crew with ease—and had leftovers. Late-night wrestling matches – You know who you are. I won't name names… this time. Pocket door rescues – Multiple saves were made, but one prepper decided to handle it solo. Mad respect. The sea sponges – If you know, you know. And finally—YOU – The participants. Every single person showed up not just to learn, but to help each other figure out their next chapter. So why haven't you taken your shot? Is it the money? The time? The fear of people? Or do you just think you're not good enough? If it is that last one, take a good hard look at that because you are. You are good enough. You deserve to build your dream.

We're swerving off the usual path and getting real about what's actually driving your behaviors. (Hint: It's not your willpower, it's not your macros, and it's definitely not a broken metabolism.) Inside this episode, Isabel and I dig into: ✨ Why ignoring your gut keeps you stuck (and how to trust it again) ✨ How one playground insult can haunt you for decades (and how to finally let it go) ✨ How to shift your vibe from "I suck" ➡️ "I'm magical AF" ✨ Why the scale needs to lose your number (and how to break up with it for good) ✨ How “nourish” became Isabel's power word for radical mindset shifts ✨ The real reason you reach for unlimited carbs (spoiler: it's not because you're weak)   PLUS — Isabel shares her Nourish App — a simple, powerful way to rewire old patterns without spending the next 10 years in therapy.

In this episode I debunk the lie that the fitness industry teaches about discipline being the key to a successful transformation and how that philosophy has kept dieters on a hamster wheel for years.   Every frustrated dieter wonders why they can't just be more disciplined. They wonder why they can start off strong in the morning and the wheels inevitably fall off later that night.   Generic dieting advice and the “just try harder” narrative is flawed. In reality, most people have tried harder to lose weight than anything else they've ever had to work at.   So if trying harder isn't the answer, what is?   Imagine waking up each day trusting that you aren't going to overeat, that you won't run out of willpower, and you'll go to bed that night feeling proud that you broke the habit of overeating and developed the habits of the 'naturally thin' so you never had to diet again.   How would it feel to be in control of food, instead of food controlling you?   Our habits shape our lives and finding the right system makes all the difference in the world.   Whether you've been a Restrictor or a Permitter in your dieting past, your current habits either work for you or against you.   When you understand the power of a habit, for better or worse, it's easy to see how having the right habits, systems, and support in place is a game changer when it comes to fat loss.   In this episode, you'll discover how to become consistent so you can not only achieve your goals, but you can maintain them with ease.   You'll learn:   How habits have all of the control and developing the right ones will save you years of frustration. How the pressures of life keep you circling the diet drain and how to practice being persistent no matter what obstacles you face. The real answer to sustainable fat loss that leave you feeling in control of food and never go on a diet again (HINT: It all starts in the mind).   If forcing your body into a smaller version of itself through dieting worked, it would have worked by now. It's time to try something different. Something that actually works.   Give this week's episode a listen to learn how.   Connect with Leslie:   • Website • Instagram • Facebook     If you're struggling with emotional, binge, or compulsive eating and you're interested in personalized coaching, apply here.   Or, if you want to be the first to know when we'll be opening the doors to Outsmart Overeating and get access to early bird discounts and fast action bonuses, you can join the Interest List.   If you want to learn how to not-only lose weight, but lose the struggle along side it, you can get started by taking the Weight Loss Psychology Quiz: Discover Your Diet Personality Type

Hey, Heal Squad! We are back with the brilliant Dr. Christina Rahm, and trust us—this episode is a must-listen! You've heard Maria talk about quiet quitting sushi, but today, Dr. Christina is breaking down the shocking truth about parasites in sushi—and why eating it overseas can leave you feeling wrecked!  (Hint: It's NOT just about freshness.) But don't panic just yet—she's also revealing what you can take to protect your body if you still indulge. And here's a twist… Could tequila actually help protect you from sickness?! Dr. Christina spills the science behind a specific type of tequila that may kill bacteria, boost your health, and (maybe?!) help you live to 130! But that's not all—we're also diving into one of the most harmful ingredients in sunscreen that might be damaging your body instead of protecting it. Just because a product is labeled “natural” or “safe” doesn't mean it actually is—Dr. Christina is teaching us how to decode ingredient lists and make smarter choices. This episode is packed with mind-blowing facts and a whole lot of OMG moments. Enjoy! HEALERS & HEAL LINERS:  Be Careful on What You Consume: Consuming raw sushi, especially depending on location, can be risky due to parasites and contamination. But adds, the purest form of tequila may help protect the body against parasites and viruses. Hidden Toxins in Everyday Products: Labels can be misleading—terms like "extract" and "natural flavoring" can mean different things depending on their manufacturing process. Sunscreen can also carry harmful chemicals like titanium dioxide, which may have serious health risks, including links to squamous cell melanoma, a form of skin cancer that can spread to the brain. Science Behind Sunlight: Dr. Christina explains that sunlight is a crucial signaling source for our bodies—providing energy, helping metabolize nutrients, and supporting cellular health. This is often misunderstood by mainstream medical narratives. -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy's Page: Shop My Macy's Storefront Prenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 off Delete Me: https://bit.ly/43rkHwi  code: SQUAD DR.

I think this is a question we all ask ourselves, right? How do we know that we know that we know when it's God speaking? What if it's not?In this episode, I walk through four “tests” per se, that might help you discern whether what you're hearing is actually the voice of God.Hint: It doesn't sound like Morgan Freeman and it's usually not a burning bush. Disappointing, I know.But truly, we tend to over spiritualize what it sounds like or assume that it's only on special occasions or big decisions but in reality, the Heavenly Father is always speaking!Through His people,Through His Word,Through prayer,Through dreams,Through all kinds of places and particulars, His voice is reminding you that you're seen, significant, and safe.The kicker? His voice usually calls us to get uncomfortable, release some things that we want to hold onto, or calling us to step up in ways we feel ill-equipped.John 10:27 says, “My sheep listen to My voice; I know them, and they follow Me."You are His sheep. He is your Shepherd. You have the Holy Spirit. You hear His voice right where you are..I hope as you make space for quiet and lean in, this podcast will help remind you that you already hold the superpower of having direct access to the King of Kings. It's absolutely extraordinary, and it's true.
