    Send us Fan MailLisa Hanna, former Miss World, longtime Jamaican cabinet minister, and founder of Lisa Hanna Beauty, joins Skin Anarchy to talk about rejecting the language of correction, building a science led luxury line in Italy, and the activist mission behind her brand.Who is Lisa Hanna?An "accidental beauty queen" who won Miss World in 1993 at 18, then built a two decade political career as one of Jamaica's youngest female members of parliament and a cabinet minister before retiring last year to enter beauty. "I think leadership has an obligation to give other people an opportunity to present their ideas."Why did she move from politics into beauty?Because she rejected how the industry talks about age. As she aged in demanding field work, actives like retinol and vitamin C stopped suiting her skin. "If we're constantly told that the evidence of time is something to correct, eventually we see ourselves and believe that time has diminished us."What does aging intelligently mean?Working with skin rather than fighting it. Hanna reframes skin as an organ deserving support, not correction. "Remember your skin is at its best when it's supported... when you're working in harmony with it." She sees longevity as overused and prefers accumulating knowledge over reversing time.How are women in politics judged on their appearance?Constantly, and before they speak. Hanna recalls being heckled entering parliament, then facing formal motions over sleeveless outfits and a national debate over a swimsuit photo at 51. "There's an ageist component to the beauty," she says, noting the judgment arrived "way before you open your mouth.Why did she make her line in Italy?For innovation and EU standards. She wanted regulated formulas that push boundaries without breaking the skin barrier. "I wanted my products to be EU regulated and to pass EU standards," working with a lab using mastic resin to stimulate the skin's own collagen rather than forcing change from the top down.What is the science behind Lisa Hanna Beauty?A proprietary quantum RECP delivery system across every product. It pairs mastic resin, protected vitamin C that activates only on the skin, green grape extract for inflammation, and matrikine peptides. "Skin must recognize what it already knows," she says, which is why the formulas absorb rather than sit on top.Is Lisa Hanna Beauty only for certain skin tones?No, and she resisted pressure to position it that way. Advisors pushed her to build a brand for people of color; she refused. "I want to do skincare for all skin types." The formulas are clinically tested to work across skin tones, and she argues luxury was wrongly withheld from many women for too long.What is the fade bomb?The line's breakout hero product, a hydrating balm for hyperpigmentation that doubles as a healing product. Built after visiting bleaching factories worldwide, it avoids harsh correctives. "That fade bomb is amazing," used on scarring, bikini line, and underarms across every skin tone.Can luxury skincare be affordable?That was the point. Watching post COVID economic pressure on women, Hanna built a premium seven product line meant to feel special without breaking budgets. "Every woman deserves when they go home to feel luxury," with glass bottles worthy of a vanity and formulas that are clinically tested.What is the brand's activist mission?Five percent of everything funds support for women and children with neurodivergence, especially in Jamaica, where child mental health resources are scarce. Drawing on her own son's experience and her time as minister of youth, she calls it an activist beauty brand. "Skincare can transform skin, but it can also transform lives."Listen to the full episode with Lisa Hanna on Skin Anarchy, available wherever you get your podcasts.Shop Lisa Hanna BeautyDon't forget to subscribe to Skin Anarchy on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your preferred platform.Reach out to us through email with any questions.Sign up for our newsletter!Shop all our episodes and products mentioned through our ShopMy Shelf!Support the show

    Who decided that the thing stopping people travelling was not money, but choice?What happens to a country when the holiday is designed so that the visitor never has to leave the compound?And of every hundred dollars you spend at an all-inclusive, how much do you think actually stays there?Gerard Blitz opened his first holiday village on a Majorcan beach in 1950 on the theory that what people wanted was not adventure but the removal of every decision — Peter Frankopan and Afua Hirsch follow that idea all the way to the gated resorts of the present.The all-inclusive is now worth close to a hundred billion dollars a year. In the Dominican Republic it accounts for more than seventy per cent of hotel rooms and helps generate over forty per cent of GDP. And of every hundred dollars a guest spends, roughly five stays in the local economy. The rest is repatriated to foreign operators, international airlines and global supply chains, along with the food flown in so that nobody has to eat anything unfamiliar. In water-stressed places, guests can use ten times what a local resident uses in a day. In Jamaica there is now a movement against the privatisation of beaches that local people can no longer reach. Afua has just come back from an Arawak village in the Guyanese Amazon where all-inclusive means something entirely different. Peter, who has enjoyed rather more package holidays than he lets on, is not convinced the answer is to take them away from people.Join Legacy Plus for bonus episodes, early access, Q&A's, fewer adverts and more.legacy.supportingcast.fm[0:00] Sun lounger wars at dawn, and the buffet as a way of life[7:58] Gerard Blitz, a Belgian on a Majorcan beach, and the founding of Club Med[14:59] A hundred billion dollars a year, and the country where all-inclusives are seventy per cent of the rooms[16:39] Five dollars in every hundred — where the rest of your money actually goes[17:54] Ten times the water a local resident uses in a day[26:47] The beaches in Jamaica that Jamaicans can no longer reach[31:07] Plantations sold as celebratory places, and what the industry assumes you cannot handle[34:14] Afua in the Amazon: an all-inclusive of a completely different kindStay connected with Legacy:Instagram: @originallegacypodcastTikTok: @legacy_productionsExplore more from Peter and Afua — essays, sources, and ideas:Substack: peterfrankopan.substack.com | afuahirsch.substack.comJoin Legacy+ for bonus episodes, early access, Q&A's, fewer adverts and more.legacy.supportingcast.fmStay connected with Legacy:Instagram: @originallegacypodcastTikTok: @legacy_productionsExplore more from Peter and Afua — essays, sources, and ideas: Substack: peterfrankopan.substack.com | afuahirsch.substack.com Hosted on Acast.

I visited Victoria Falls, which dwarfs Niagara, the extraordinary Table Mountain, and several wildlife reserves including Kruger National Park. The jeep rides through the brush yielded close encounters with female lions shepherding their cubs, male lions sleeping off meals, a leopard in a tree crunching the skull of an impala, herds of piously maternal elephants — only one of which came close to charging us — and a dozen other species of predator or prey. The high point, I'll confess, was one wildlife encounter in particular: when a troop of baboons charged the outdoor diners at The Black Marlin in Cape Town, driving them to flee, so the apes could stuff their faces with pilfered pasta. Sadly, I was sitting inside, so all I could do was cheer the hairy creatures on from through the window. Privacy Note: On play, Google may track viewers. YouTube's Privacy Policy. The Book of Nature I hope that I'm sufficiently grateful for this encounter with the baroque, sublime abundance of biology that our planet is privileged to host — alone, so far as we know, among the billions of planets. Gratitude should be aimed at a giver, and it was reading the works of Discovery Institute authors that made this easier for me. I could wonder at the tiny penguins that somehow survive in the Mediterranean climate near the Cape of Good Hope, or the birds that live symbiotically with wildebeests by feeding on bloodsucking insects, without the deflating idea lurking in the back of my mind, “This all the result of blind chance and iron necessity, with no crafting intelligence behind it.” Instead, I saw works of art, and found myself thanking the Artist. I was reading the Book of Nature, and seeing in it glimmers of divine action, intention, and generosity — as “natural philosophers” did from Kepler and Newton to Pasteur and Mendel. Back when I unreflectively adhered to the theistic (really deistic) evolution that's preached in most Christian pulpits, I accepted the notion that God was somehow behind every aspect of the cosmos. If pressed, I would have said that God had “guided” or “instigated” the emergence of extraordinary creatures like the zebras that stared at our jeep, the elegant kudus that capered past us through the veldt, the wild dogs that seemed at once so alien and so familiar that it was tempting to hop out and try petting them. (“Do not attempt this,” I was informed by our solemn African guide.) But all of life was at best a convoluted Rube Goldberg contraption, which Someone had set in motion then stepped away to observe. God even had humans in mind — deciding, for some reason, to slowly evolve His earthly image through a long chain of predecessor species, until at some point He chose to implant both rationality and immortal souls in creatures who'd mutated in and then emerged from the womb of an animal. I used to speculate about how that allegedly worked, and how I could reconcile it in some fashion with the Genesis account of God making man directly from the dust of the earth, and woman from his side. I remember thinking, lamely, “Maybe they were identical twins … and He switched Eve's sex before the ape gave birth to them?” Then I stopped bothering, encouraged by modern priests who treat not just Genesis but most of the Old Testament as mostly wholesome mythology, akin to that found in Bulfinch or Edith Hamilton. Christianizing Darwinists Obeying the dictum of 19th-century “Higher Criticism,” Christianizing Darwinists aim to explain away every claim of miraculous action — from the direct creation of man to the parting of the Red Sea, from Jesus' virgin birth to even his Resurrection. I was taught in high school that the last, most crucial Christian miracle, amounted merely to the “ongoing presence” of Jesus in his apostles' hearts and minds. Big whoop. In that sense, Adolf Hitler is still sadly with us. (If you want an account of how and why biblical critics crafted such blinders, read Scott Hahn and Benjamin Wiker's magisterial Politicizing the Bible, which I edited for publication.) Priests, theologians, bishops and even (recently) popes have responded to the popular triumph of Darwinism by dismissing most of the events recounted in Genesis as purely allegorical and moral. Keen to avoid being tarred as “fundamentalists,” and encouraged by some cautious leeway granted to evolutionary thinking by popes such as Pius XII and John Paul II, most Catholics have eagerly accepted that Darwin's theories fully explain the emergence of every living species, even man. Otherwise-orthodox believers have made this intellectual concession, convinced that “the science” is irrefutable, so the theology must make room for it. But what if, in fact, the science is very shaky, and the implications for a Christian worldview profoundly toxic? Those are the questions asked and convincingly answered in a new book, Creation or Evolution? A Catholic Dilemma. It's written in an extremely engaging format — a series of questions posed by science journalist Steve Greene and answered by theologian Rev. Michael Chabarek, O.P. It was Chaberek's previous book, Aquinas and Evolution, that convinced me to take intelligent design seriously, and embark on the journey through the works of Stephen Meyer, Michael Behe, Douglas Axe, and many others — to my profound intellectual and spiritual enrichment. This new book is every bit the equal of Chaberek's earlier work. He lays out the serious evidential weaknesses in the Darwinist claim to have explained the appearance of human beings by incremental mutations from previous apelike species. (For much more detail than this book offers, see Science and Human Origins, from Discovery Institute Press, which Chaberek cites.) He explains how circular logic and wishful thinking pervade the claims of paleontologists to have discovered non-human ancestors for our species, with periodic claims to have found a “missing link” based on tiny bone fragments of indeterminate origin. False First Principles But Chaberek's main focus is not on empirical flaws or gaps in the Darwinist account. Instead, he focuses on the false first principles that motivate, even compel Darwinists to invent their “just so” stories in the first place. Here's a sample of the straightforward, plain-speaking way that the authors convey key philosophical issues: If man did not come from the ape, then how did he come into existence? First, let us consider whether sciences such as paleontology and genetics are actually capable of providing an answer to this question. If man came into existence naturally, then, yes, because science explains the workings of nature. But if man came into existence supernaturally, that is, by the action of divine power exceeding the power of nature, then science cannot explain the beginning of man. Therefore, whether science can provide an answer to this question does not depend on scientific research, but on the previously adopted religious or philosophical assumptions. Chabarek argues convincingly that secularist and materialist assumptions precede and determine the scientific work of Darwinists, essentially forcing them to deny evidence of design, and to make impossible claims for the creative power of mutations — despite the overwhelming odds against blind chance happening upon even a single useful new protein in the entire history of life on earth (as Douglas Axe showed in exhaustive experimental detail in his book, Undeniable). When such bias-inducing reductionist assumptions migrate from the research papers of laboratory scientists into the works of Christian leaders, the consequences are even more baleful, Chabarek warns. If such a central question as the origin of the only rational species, the “image of God,” is to be surgically excised from the domain of religious authority and turned over to materialist scientists, what is to stop that same debunking impulse from undermining every mystery of faith? Should we leave Sarah's miraculous conception of Isaac to the gynecologists, the parting of the Red Sea to the oceanographers, and the resurrection of Jesus to the biologists? That's the inexorable logic of Christians who cling to Darwinist explanations of the “descent of man” from ancestral apes. Far better, Chabarek advises, for Christians who accept a long series of miracles and mysteries as entailed in the redemption of humanity to also make room for the Bible's literal account of the miracle of his creation — from the dust of the earth, by the hand of God.

    Deep sea mining is no longer theoretical. In this episode, Andrew sits down with Matthew Gianni, co-founder and Political and Policy Advisor of the Deep Sea Conservation Coalition, for an in-depth look at what's actually happening on the seafloor and in the negotiating rooms deciding its fate. Matthew spent years as a commercial fisherman, including five years as a deep sea trawlerman off the Central California coast, before moving into ocean conservation with Greenpeace International and eventually co-founding the DSCC to fight destructive bottom trawling on seamounts. That history shapes everything he has to say about what's coming next. The conversation covers the science and the politics in equal measure: what seamount trawling studies off Tasmania revealed about how quickly deep coral ecosystems can be destroyed, why the deep sea is far from the "biological desert" some mining proponents describe, and the 2024 discovery of "dark oxygen" being produced by the very polymetallic nodules that mining companies want to extract. Matthew also walks through the current state of play at the International Seabed Authority, including a fresh update from the July 2026 meetings in Kingston, Jamaica, the leadership change from Michael Lodge to Leticia Carvalho, the legal fight over The Metals Company's push for a US mining license outside ISA authority, and why the economics of nodule mining may not add up even on the industry's own numbers. Whether deep sea mining moves forward is still being decided right now, and Matthew makes the case for why the decisions being made in 2026 will shape the deep ocean for generations. This is a dense, detailed update for anyone trying to understand where deep sea mining policy actually stands, straight from someone who has been in the room for over a decade. Takeaways: Matthew Gianni co-founded the Deep Sea Conservation Coalition after years as a commercial fisherman and deep sea trawlerman, then a career at Greenpeace International running its ocean program. Seamount trawling studies off Tasmania showed how fast deep coral ecosystems can be wiped out once bottom trawling begins. The 2024 discovery of "dark oxygen" production from polymetallic nodules raises new questions about what deep seabed mining could disrupt before science even understands it. The International Seabed Authority is legally obligated to act "for the benefit of humankind as a whole," which is central to the current fight over mining regulations. The Metals Company is pursuing a US mining license through NOAA to bypass ISA authority entirely, a move Matthew calls "unilateral mining" that risks undermining the Law of the Sea Convention. The economics of nodule mining are being challenged even within the ISA's own analysis, with mined metals representing a small fraction of global terrestrial supply. A leadership change at the ISA, from Michael Lodge to Leticia Carvalho, has shifted the tone of negotiations, though Matthew says the fundamental disagreements remain unresolved.

    “MK Confidential” starts on the corner of East 34th Street and East Roosevelt Avenue, on a drizzly evening in Tacoma, Washington. It's Saturday, February 16th, 2002. Lee Boyd Malvo is two days shy of turning seventeen. He's about to take a life for the first time, at the prompting of his surrogate father. He will struggle to scrub himself clean from the murder. Megyn Kelly charts Malvo's path from Jamaica to Antigua to the United States, and traces how a faraway father and abusive mother primed him to partner with John Allen Muhammad. As a child, Malvo was passed around from house to house, maintaining honor roll grades despite an unsteady home life. When Malvo's mother leaves for America — using papers forged by Muhammad — Malvo is utterly alone. Muhammad comes to his aid, and the two bond as adopted father and son. Muhammad clears the way for Malvo to come to the States. When Muhammad loses custody of his own children, Malvo goes to him. He does exactly what the soldier says, including learning to kill with precision. This is Episode 3 of the Beltway Snipers story.

    Pharmakeia — Show Notes: Fight Laugh Feast Documentary In this Fight Laugh Feast documentary, CrossPolitic traces a single Greek word — pharmakeia — from Homer's Odyssey through the book of Revelation to argue that the ancient world never separated medicine from sorcery, and that the modern West's attempt to draw that line may be its most consequential mistake. The film follows materialism's promise from the Big Bang to the therapy couch, tracks the ladder from prescription pharmaceuticals to ayahuasca retreats in Peru, and asks why the men who most loudly deny the existence of demons are increasingly found in dark rooms communing with named spirit entities. Along the way it draws on C.S. Lewis, Aldous Huxley, Peter Hitchens, and the testimony of a man who sat in fifteen ayahuasca ceremonies — and what finally set him free.

    My guest today is a Jamaican game developer and studio founder. Based in Kingston, he is the founder of Spritewrench Studios, a narrative-focused micro studio he built after realising, in his final year at university, that he did not need to leave Jamaica or join a hundred-person team to make games of his own.Inspired by that possibility, he began creating small projects, taking part in game jams, and steadily turning Spritewrench from a name into a company. His work is shaped by a commitment to cultural representation that reaches beyond cliché, and by a wider effort to grow the local scene through the Jamaica Game Developer Society, where he has worked to connect creators and open up pathways into the industry. Now, with Duppy Detective Tashia, a point-and-click mystery rooted in Caribbean folklore, he is bringing that vision to a wider audience.Glen Henry & Spritewrench StudiosSpritewrench Studios – official websiteSpritewrench – itch.io (all games)Glen Henry – Instagram (@spritewrench)Duppy Detective TashiaDuppy Detective Tashia – SteamDuppy Detective Tashia – itch.ioJamaica Game Developer SocietyJamaica Game Developer Society – official siteJGDS – YouTube channel (Crash Course series)Glen's Perfect ConsoleThe Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker – WikipediaViewtiful Joe (GameCube, 2003) – WikipediaSpelunky Classic – free download (Derek Yu's site)Spelunky Classic – WikipediaHades – official siteHades – SteamHollow Knight: Silksong – official siteAlso mentionedBastion – Supergiant GamesTransistor – Supergiant GamesIndie Game: The Movie – official siteBlack Voices in Gaming – community DiscordRami Ismail – game developer and advocateChase Bethea – composer (Duppy Detective Tashia)Bubblexity – BChaotic (Jamaican student dev team, Steam)TIGSource – indie game development forumsGlobal Game JamNext week's guestSoren Johnson – designer of Civilization IVOld World – Mohawk Games (Steam)Simon's bookTrial of the Space Invaders – pre-order (Bookshop.org UK)Trial of the Space Invaders – pre-order (Amazon UK)Support the showMy Perfect Console – episode archiveSupport My Perfect Console on PatreonBecome a My Perfect Console supporter and receive a range of benefits at www.patreon.com/myperfectconsoleTake the Acast listener survey to help shape the show: My Perfect Console with Simon Parkin Survey 2025 Hosted on Acast.

    Send us Fan MailHedo Part 1: Lacy's Unexpected Solo Adventure | Episode 258This trip to Hedonism II definitely didn't start the way Lacy imagined.After a family emergency meant Dan had to stay home, Lacy suddenly found herself facing a Hedo trip without her usual partner-in-crime. Thankfully, friends Mike and Daphne were able to jump in at the last minute and join her for the adventure.In Part I of this Hedo recap, Lacy sits down with Mike and Daphne to talk about those first few days in Jamaica — from working through the disappointment of Dan not being there to finally deciding that if she was already at Hedo, she might as well make the absolute most of it.They break down their first impressions of the resort, days spent hanging out at the pool, trying the different restaurants, and checking out the club… including one very memorable detail they couldn't ignore: what was that smell?! And then there's Lacy's hotel room, where apparently the adult movie channel became the official background noise for the entire trip. Because when in Hedo, right?But underneath all the laughs, Lacy also opens up about something she hadn't really had to navigate before: playing without Dan. Even though opportunities presented themselves — and she was invited to the playroom more than once — the first couple of nights, she just wasn't ready. Lacy talks candidly about the nerves, hesitation, and internal debate that came with figuring out what she was comfortable doing on her own.Did she eventually find her Hedo groove? Did she make it into the playroom? And just how wild did this trip get once she started settling in?Well… you're going to have to wait for Part II.And judging by how much there is left to tell, there may even be a Part III. Hedo Part I is just the beginning.Get Tickets to Electric Pleasures- The Swing Nation - Main Website Quick Navigation Website: -- (Find all our social media links & more!)- Swinger Society - Our Website to meet, connect & events Swinger Society Discord Our Facebook Group- Swinger Websites -Kasadie 90 day free trialUsername: TheSwingNation SDC 14 day free trial Username: TheSwingNation** Use code 36313 for 14 days free! ** SLSUsername: NorthernGuynSouthernGirl- Merch & More -Order Your Merch Here!- Lacy's Fun Links -VIP OnlyFansPREMIUM OnlyFans-- THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSORS --Wisp : Making sexual healthcare inclusive, cost-effective, and accessible—for everyoneUse Code SWING at checkout for 15% off your oder!Shameless Care: ED Medication and at home STD testingUse Code TSN at checkout for $30 off your order!Promescent® Make Love Longer, It's Time for Great SexUse Code SwingNation for 5% off!Support the show- Thank you for the support! -

    Built on the grounds of a former cotton plantation, the Tuskegee Institute, founded by Booker T. Washington, offered agricultural and industrial education as a strategy for Black self-determination. There―and in many other communities in the U.S. South, the Caribbean, and Central America―Black people repurposed and regenerated what had been a place of enslavement into a site for imagining alternative futures. Jarvis C. McInnis charts a new account of Black modernity by centering Tuskegee'svision of agrarian worldmaking. He traces the diasporic ties and networks of exchange that linked Black communities in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Although Washington is often regarded as an accommodationist, McInnis shows how artists, intellectuals, and political leaders―including George Washington Carver, Jean Price-Mars, Zora Neale Hurston, Claude McKay, and Marcus Garvey―adapted Tuskegee's methods into dynamic strategies for liberation in places like Cuba, Puerto Rico, Haiti, and Jamaica. Even as the legacy of the plantation continued to circumscribe Black life, these thinkers found resources in its ruins to forge new theories and practices of progress, aesthetic innovation, and freedom that contributed to the New Negro Movement of the 1920s and 1930s. In contrast to traditional understandings of Black modernity as urban and premised on northward migration, McInnis foregrounds rural settings and practices of place making, rootedness, and liberatory agriculture. Shedding new light on the transnational influence of a historically Black institution in the U.S. South, Afterlives of the Plantation remaps Black cultural, intellectual, and political histories down to the very soil. Afterlives of the Plantation: Plotting Agrarian Futures in the Global Black South (Columbia University Press, 2025) is an award-winning monograph earning recognition as a winner of the 2026 S-USIH Annual Book Prize by the Society for U.S. Intellectual History, 2026 Pauli Murray Book Prize in Black Intellectual History by the African American Intellectual History Society, and the 2026 ASALH Book Prize by the Association for the Study of African American Life and History Kishauna Soljour is an Assistant Professor of Public Humanities at San Diego State University.

    Sand heists and property rights in the Caribbean (Summer School)

    Imagine a nation where, for the residents, land is for the claiming. You walk down the street, pick out a nice looking plot of land, and just plop down a marker. No rent, no taxes, no deed – just free land. That's the communal system of property rights that governed a small Caribbean island for over a century.This week on our Summer School World Tour we make port on the small economies of island nations, a great place to explore how different experiments play out. Every small change – the good and the bad – has big consequences.First, the fascinating test case on the island of Barbuda, where the people there have found a way to run things without the usual, formal land rights.Then, we consider the vulnerabilities of small nations as we dig into a mysterious sand heist in Jamaica. A stolen beach – yes, you read that right – and something called “sand forensics” reveal the importance of this seemingly infinite resource and the challenges of protecting public spaces when there's money to be made.Along the way we found ourselves asking: Does property have to be private? What happens when it's not? How can you protect scarce resources when they're part of the vast, public spaces everyone shares?Featured Episodes:The Island No One Owns (2020)Peak Sand (2018)Featured Terms:Tragedy of the commonsProperty rightsPath dependenceOwnership in commonSupport:NPR+ (sponsor-free listening & bonus episodes) And please click “follow” in your podcast app so you don't miss an episode. Read: Our book: Planet Money: A Guide to the Economic Forces That Shape Your Life (Audiobook here) Our weekly longform Planet Money newsletterOur weekly Indicator link round-up newsletterFollow: InstagramTikTokYouTubeFacebookThis episode of Planet Money Summer School is hosted by Robert Smith.

    (00:47) — Grandfather's Illness as Catalyst: Shemiele traces her interest in medicine to caring for her grandfather in Jamaica and losing him to a stroke.(02:30) — Immigrating in Sixth Grade: How moving to the US opened up possibilities she hadn't considered growing up in Jamaica.(05:37) — Deciding on Medicine in High School: The shadowing experience that confirmed she wanted to become a physician.(09:49) — Approaching Graduation Without the MCAT: Why she didn't know the test existed and how she started piecing the process together.(13:57) — Quitting Her Job to Study: How she structured her MCAT prep during the pandemic and what made her feel ready.(16:42) — Building the Application from Scratch: Using online resources to learn how to structure a competitive application.(21:44) — Six Versions of a Personal Statement: What made the writing process so hard and how she finally got it right.(25:27) — Secondary Burnout and What She'd Do Differently: Applying to 17 schools, finishing only 10 secondaries, and the staggering strategy she wishes she'd used.(51:37) — Learning to Use a Mentor: What she didn't do during the application process and what she now tells the students she mentors.(57:10) — Run Your Own Race: Her closing advice for premed students who feel behind.Shemiele grew up in Jamaica, immigrated to the United States in sixth grade, and became the first in her family to pursue medical school. She didn't know the MCAT existed until she was nearly done with her two concurrent bachelor's degrees. She learned the entire application process through online resources, figured out her personal statement through six different versions, and got buried under secondaries she hadn't pre-written. She also skipped mock interviews and wishes she hadn't. Despite all of it, she earned a medical school acceptance in Florida and is now a third-year medical student who mentors others going through the same process. This conversation is a candid, practical look at what the premed path actually looks like when you're navigating it without a built-in support system — and what you can do to give yourself the best possible shot.What You'll Learn:- Why pre-writing secondaries before your primary is submitted can prevent burnout and missed opportunities- How to approach your personal statement as a cohesive message rather than a list of experiences- What a mentor is actually for and how to use that relationship throughout the application process- Why applying early matters and how to prioritize secondaries when they all arrive at once- How to run your own timeline without comparing your pace to everyone else's

Chris Winters can tell you the truth about all of them.Electroculture has become a buzzword on Instagram, but almost everything circulating about it misses the actual mechanism. The people teaching it have never grown a paying crop with it, but Chris Winters has, for over a decade, on a working organic vegetable farm in Tennessee.Chris is the founder of The Fertile Current and a medical qigong doctor who spent his first years farming fighting nature, using blood meal, bone meal, and every conventional organic input, until a crisis of conscience forced him to rebuild his soil fertility from scratch with rock minerals, biochar, and antenna systems that collect atmospheric charge.What he found broke the story that most organic farmers accept as fact. Bigger yields. Longer harvest windows. Pest pressure dropping by 85%. His farm is now fully transitioning to research mode because the production side has started to feel almost too easy.We also get into radionics, weather modification, why Japanese beetles use their wings as an inner ear, and why he thinks the real fertility crisis is a power supply problem, in the soil and in us.You'll Learn:[0:00] Introduction[9:24] Your energetic connection to heaven and earth, and what fourth phase water reveals about Hadza hydration[31:31] How Chris's Nashville and Jamaica upbringing shaped his faith, and the beach hostage ordeal that followed[1:02:06] USDA organic labels don't matter, and the mistake of farming built on blood sacrifice[1:23:57] What electroculture actually is, and why the Instagram version gets it wrong[1:46:50] Cutting off the Strait of Hormuz symbolically means cutting off divine intelligence[2:03:45] How the antenna systems collect cations 15 feet up to power soil fertility[2:39:37] Why Japanese beetles vanish from low-voltage fields, and how bugs only attack already-weakened plants[3:05:14] How radionic field broadcasters power weather modification and Chris's training as a blind dowser[3:26:14] Medical Qigong, and why Chris pivoted his farm from vegetables to researchRelated The Way Forward Episodes:The 4th Phase of Water: The Blueprint for Biological Energy with Dr. Gerald Pollack | PodcastThought, Light & The Liquid Language of God with Veda Austin | PodcastPolarity Therapy, Dead Soil & Ayahuasca with Topher Gardner | PodcastThe Lies Modern Science Told Us About  Alchemy, Consciousness, & Quantum with Dr. Steven A.

I always keep a copy in my pocket, and I share it with people who are curious about our standards. It has been updated and refreshed to better cope with the challenges and temptations of our day. The new version of For the Strength of Youth is available online in 50 different languages and will also be available in print. It will be a significant help for making choices in your life. Please embrace it as your own and share it with your friends. This new version of For the Strength of Youth is subtitled A Guide for Making Choices. To be very clear, the best guide you can possibly have for making choices is Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is the strength of youth. So the purpose of For the Strength of Youth is to point you to Him. It teaches you eternal truths of His restored gospel—truths about who you are, who He is, and what you can accomplish with His strength. It teaches you how to make righteous choices based on those eternal truths.13 It's also important to know what For the Strength of Youth does not do. It doesn't make decisions for you. It doesn't give you a “yes” or “no” about every choice you might ever face. For the Strength of Youth focuses on the foundation for your choices. It focuses on values, principles, and doctrine instead of every specific behavior. The Lord, through His prophets, has always been guiding us in that direction. He is pleading with us to “increase [our] spiritual capacity to receive revelation.”14 He is inviting us to “hear Him.”15 He is calling us to follow Him in higher and holier ways.16 And we are learning in a similar way every week in Come, Follow Me.     ACU Endorsed Charities -------------------------------------------------------- Pre-Born!
