EP 378 - Political scientist Anand Menon joins us this week to talk about the good, the bad and the downright ugly of the choices facing the UK in a rapidly changing world. We discuss how we all need to redraw a mental map of the “Western Alliance” as a result of the Trump administration, how the UK government is walking a diplomatic tightrope between the US and the EU and why their positive drive for growth could get derailed by events outside of their control.Anand brings evidence, rather than opinion and ideology to the table. Which helps navigate emotionally charged issues such as whether immigration is good for the economy, and why the net immigration numbers are set to fall (hint, it's nothing to do with small boats).We even managed to have a sensible conversation about Brexit, the pros, the cons, the winners and the losers who are likely to pay the highest price for it. It might not be who you think.As Anand says, “people tell us, that the reason that they listen to us is that they don't know what we are going to say”*For Apple Podcast chapters, access them from the menu in the bottom right corner of your player*Spotify Video Chapters:00:00 BWB with Anand Menon02:21 Meet Anand03:14 Brexit's Psychological and Political Impact03:32 Trump's Influence on Global Politics09:06 UK's Immigration System: Challenges and Changes21:25 Economic and Social Consequences of Brexit34:48 Historical Reflections and Trade Realities36:57 Brexit's Timing and Globalisation Challenges38:02 Political Nuances and Public Opinion38:55 Future of UK-EU Relations44:13 UK's Global Role and Diplomatic Strengths47:14 Think-Tank Insights and Regulatory Challenges57:42 Quickfire - Get To Know Anand01:02:20 Wrap Upbusinesswithoutbullshit.meWatch and subscribe to us on YouTubeFollow us:InstagramTikTokLinkedinTwitterFacebookIf you'd like to be on the show, get in contact - mail@businesswithoutbullshit.meBWB is powered by Oury Clark

How can we reliably approach today's pressing social issues in a way that honors God and points people to Jesus?

He earned his MDiv at Moody Theological Seminary and his PhD at Notre Dame. His most recent book is entitled The Jesus Method. Together, Ted and Jason explore some of the common tendencies and temptations we have as ministry leaders when it comes to addressing some of the complex and controversial social issues of our day. Ted points us to the life of Jesus, focusing on the priority of relationships and helping us understand the value of not just what Jesus taught but how he engaged the people around him.Dig deeper into this conversation: Find the free Weekly Toolkit, including the Ministry Leaders Growth Guide, all resource links, and more, at http://PastorServe.org/networkSome key takeaways from this conversation:Ted Bryant on the importance of trust and mutual respect when discussing sensitive or contentious issues: "As the level of controversy on a topic increases, so should the level of relationship in order to engage that conversation."Ted Bryant on the significance of understanding Jesus' character and compassion in order to appropriately apply his teachings rather than using them to judge or condemn others: "When we know what's right without knowing the way of Jesus, we can oftentimes weaponize the truth of Jesus."Ted Bryant the importance of personal spiritual growth as a precursor to public or outward expressions of faith: "The first step of contending for the faith is actually deepening your own relationship with God."----------------Looking to dig more deeply into this topic and conversation?

Ep. 93 (Part 3 of 3) | Integral psychotherapist Mark Forman, author of the seminal work A Guide to Integral Psychotherapy, doesn't mince words when it comes to the field he is passionate about: helping people out of their mental pain and dysphoria. Mark's Integral perspective and longtime work in the trenches—with clients from all income levels, political persuasions, and levels of development—put him in a unique position to illuminate us as to the nuances of the hot button issues new to psychotherapy or ones that have suddenly exploded in numbers: misuse of the term trauma and its diagnostic creep, what the research says about the effectiveness of psychedelics to treat mental health disorders and what that portends for the future, the exponentially growing trend of teenage girls deciding they are transgender and the crying need for more data to help with counseling transgender and trans-curious youth, what is causing the loneliness epidemic, the pressing need to reimagine the male role to balance how feminism has changed the female role, and more. Mark describes the “therapeutic zone” that can happen in therapy when inspiration strikes, and shares the latest research on what makes therapists into “super-shrinks” who have client outcomes ten times better than average. He also relates how living in our psychologized culture affects therapy, and how it can get tricky when therapist and client are at different levels of development. Mark's vast knowledge and big heart shine through the many topics he delves into and his tales of actual therapeutic encounters are eye opening and moving. This is an impassioned, courageous conversation on the front lines of mental health and psychotherapy.

Research suggests it's an individual thing rather than which psychological school the therapist follows (07:07)The matrix problem: it's almost impossible to define outcome measures (09:38)What does research show makes the biggest difference in outcomes? Super-shrinks make a lot of room for negative feedback (11:34)The therapeutic zone: conceptual curiosity, receptive listening, and dropping into the witness or pure awareness (23:08)The developmental stage of the therapist's effect on the client: where it gets tricky is if the client is in a later stage of development than the therapist (27:40)Reflective listening is the beating heart of all therapy (36:59)Recent research on psychedelic therapy is showing it is amazingly effective: psilocybin for depression and MDMA for PTSD (38:06)Will the psychedelic therapy bubble burst when the risks become more apparent?

Ep. 91 (Part 1 of 3) | Integral psychotherapist Mark Forman, author of the seminal work A Guide to Integral Psychotherapy, doesn't mince words when it comes to the field he is passionate about: helping people out of their mental pain and dysphoria. Mark's Integral perspective and longtime work in the trenches—with clients from all income levels, political persuasions, and levels of development—put him in a unique position to illuminate us as to the nuances of the hot button issues new to psychotherapy or ones that have suddenly exploded in numbers: misuse of the term trauma and its diagnostic creep, what the research says about the effectiveness of psychedelics to treat mental health disorders and what that portends for the future, the exponentially growing trend of teenage girls deciding they are transgender and the crying need for more data to help with counseling transgender and trans-curious youth, what is causing the loneliness epidemic, the pressing need to reimagine the male role to balance how feminism has changed the female role, and more. Mark describes the “therapeutic zone” that can happen in therapy when inspiration strikes, and shares the latest research on what makes therapists into “super-shrinks” who have client outcomes ten times better than average. He also relates how living in our psychologized culture affects therapy, and how it can get tricky when therapist and client are at different levels of development. Mark's vast knowledge and big heart shine through the many topics he delves into and his tales of actual therapeutic encounters are eye opening and moving. This is an impassioned, courageous conversation on the front lines of mental health and psychotherapy. Recorded May 4, 2023.“The therapist is the priest of our times…imbued with a certain amount of metaphysical responsibility. So when the therapeutic field gets out of balance, it makes a difference.”(For Apple Podcast users, click here to view the complete show notes on the episode page.)Topics & Time Stamps – Part 1Introducing Integral psychotherapist Mark Forman, author of A Guide to Integral Psychotherapy and The Monster's Journey: From Trauma to Connection (00:52)How we have moved from the animistic to the religious to the scientific worldview, and now look at the world through a predominantly psychological perspective (02:25)42 million people in the U.S. interacted with therapy or counseling, which is up 20 million people from the year 2000 (03:41)The therapist is the priest of our times…imbued with a certain amount of metaphysical responsibility. So when the therapeutic field gets out of balance, it makes a difference (06:41)Has there been a shift in what clients are bringing up?
