Podcasts about increasing

1. Oil Prices & National Security Lower global oil prices weaken hostile regimes like Iran, Russia, and Venezuela by reducing their revenue. The Trump administration aims for a “sweet spot” oil price ($60–$70/barrel): Low enough to hurt adversaries. High enough to avoid bankrupting U.S. independent oil producers. If prices drop into the $40s, it could collapse small oil producers in Texas and the Permian Basin. 2. Venezuela’s Oil Infrastructure Venezuela has the world’s largest proven oil reserves, but decades of mismanagement have destroyed its infrastructure. Estimates from oil executives: Increasing production from 1 million to 3 million barrels/day could take 10 years and require $100B+ in investment. Even going from 1 million to 2 million/day would take 5–7 years. Gulf Coast refineries can process Venezuela’s heavy sour crude, but expanded imports would mostly affect Canada and Mexico, not U.S. light-sweet crude producers. 3. Cuba’s Economic Crisis Cuba historically survived on financial support from: The Soviet Union (until its collapse). Venezuela under Chávez/Maduro (oil and money). With Venezuela no longer able to support Cuba, the island is in economic freefall. Mexico is currently providing oil that helps sustain the Cuban regime. The Trump administration may pressure Mexico to cut this supply, potentially pushing Cuba toward political collapse. 4. Jack Smith & January 6th Investigation Smith is accused of leading a politically motivated prosecution against Donald Trump. He allegedly relied on questionable or disproven testimony, notably from Cassidy Hutchinson. Hutchinson’s dramatic claims (e.g., Trump lunging for a steering wheel) were not confirmed by eyewitnesses. Jim Jordan challenged Smith in hearings, accusing him of: Using unreliable witnesses. Conducting a partisan, anti-Trump investigation. Targeting large numbers of Republicans with subpoenas. 5. Crime Statistics & Trump Administration Policies Nationwide murder rates reportedly declined ~20% from 2024 to 2025. Approx. 1,400 fewer murders. Major cities showing decreases: Chicago: 30% NYC: 20% Baltimore: 31% Oakland: 33% Washington, D.C.: 31% (after National Guard deployment) Other violent crimes also declined: Motor vehicle theft: ↓25% Robbery: ↓18% Aggravated assault: ↓8% Law enforcement stats cited: Violent crime arrests: ↑100% Gangs disrupted: ↑210% Fentanyl seized: ↑31% Missing/abducted children located: ↑22% Human traffickers arrested: ↑15% Significant increase in arrests of espionage suspects and fugitives.

This week on Autonomy Markets, Grayson Brulte and Walter Piecyk discuss Tesla officially removing safety attendants from Robotaxis in Austin, Waymo's commercial launch in Miami, and Serve Robotics' strategic acquisition of Diligent Robotics.It finally happened. Tesla has removed safety attendants from a select group of vehicles in Austin. While this initial fleet is limited and operating in a specific geofence and utilizing chase cars, Grayson and Walt view this as a critical validation of the technology. Looking ahead, Grayson predicts the operational domain will expand significantly in Austin over the next 60 days, with the Phoenix metro region slated as the next target market for deployment. As Tesla went safety attendant-out, Waymoopened the Miami market for limited commercial service within a 60-square-mile area, with one major caveat, no Miami Beach. On the Foreign Autonomy Desk, Grayson and Walt discuss Geely's plan to deploy 100,000 methanol-powered robotaxis in China and the South Korean government's selection of Gwangju as the nation's first dedicated autonomous vehicle testing zone.Episode Chapters0:00 Tesla Removes Safety Attendant in Austin 9:19 Operational Efficiency 10:33 Alex Roy Goes Coast-to-Coast with Zero FSD Interventions 14:15 Drive on FSD, Get a Discount 18:25 FSD is Expanding as Prices are Increasing 23:31 New Robotaxi Markets 24:53 Waymo Launches Miami Markets28:33 Vandalizing Waymo's32:20 Serve Robotics Acquires Diligent Robotics36:41 Foreign Autonomy Desk 39:21 Next WeekRecorded on Friday, January 23, 2026 --------About The Road to AutonomyThe Road to Autonomy provides market intelligence and strategic advisory services to institutional investors and companies, delivering insights needed to stay ahead of emerging trends in the autonomy economy™.

Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 1-22-2026: An emailer from Canada asks about long-term Remicade (infliximab) use for her 16-year-old daughter's ulcerative colitis. Dr. Dawn explains the drug blocks tumor necrosis factor, which stops autoimmune attacks but also weakens infection defense—increasing risk of fungal infections, tuberculosis, and after about 10 years, slightly elevated blood cancer risk. She recommends the daughter practice good hygiene and mask in high-risk settings. For achieving full remission, she suggests vitamin D levels around 75-80, DHEA supplementation, strict gluten avoidance due to its pro-inflammatory effects, and working with a certified functional medicine practitioner to heal the gut and potentially withdraw medication. Dr. Dawn presents a case study of a 27-year-old woman with progressive weakness, pins-and-needles sensations, and impaired balance. Despite normal B12 blood levels, elevated homocysteine and methylmalonic acid revealed functional B12 deficiency from using 20-30 nitrous oxide whippets daily. Nitrous oxide oxidizes the cobalt atom in methylcobalamin, permanently inactivating the enzyme needed for myelin sheath maintenance. Treatment requires months of daily B12 injections with recovery taking up to 84 weeks. She warns that nitrous oxide also interacts dangerously with Viagra-type drugs (causing dangerous blood pressure drops), methotrexate, stimulants, hallucinogens, and respiratory depressants. She describes Canadian researchers developing a miniaturized 3D printer for vocal cord repair. After removing nodules that cause hoarseness, the device prints hydrogel along the wound to create a flat surface preventing keloid-like regrowth, rather like spackling a wall before healing occurs underneath. Dr. Dawn discusses lipoprotein(a), written as Lap(a), a genetic cardiovascular risk factor discovered in the 1960s. This relative of LDL carries a protein that promotes blood clots, thus raising heart attack and stroke risks. In a recent large survey, only about 14% of people have been screened despite its significance. New drugs like pelicarsin can reduce Lp(a) levels up to 80%,trials underway to confirm a benefit of reduced cardiac events. She notes tennis star Arthur Ashe had high Lp(a) contributing to his coagulopathy. A natural option is already available. She recommends lumbrokinase, derived from earthworms and used in traditional Chinese medicine, as an existing treatment that combats high Lp(a) and counteracts its procoagulant effects. The product Boluoke is commercially available, offering an alternative to high-dose niacin which causes intolerable flushing and diarrhea. Dr. Dawn reports research finding people with anxiety disorders have 8% lower choline levels in brain regions regulating emotion. Increasing choline could help. Choline sources include eggs (two eggs provide 300mg of the 500mg daily choline need), organ meats, salmon, soybeans, and lecithin supplements.

Definition and Sources of Oxalates- Oxalates are natural compounds produced by plants and found in various foods. - High consumption of oxalates can lead to toxicity, particularly affecting calcium absorption. - Common sources of oxalates include sweet potatoes, spinach, and certain nuts, which can exacerbate health issues.Health Implications of Oxalates- Excessive oxalate consumption can correlate with numerous health problems, including kidney stones and connective tissue disorders. - Sally Norton shares her personal journey, linking her health issues to oxalate intake, particularly from sweet potatoes. - There is a growing recognition that many individuals may be affected by oxalate toxicity, often without awareness.Dietary Recommendations - A low-oxalate diet is crucial for managing health issues related to oxalates, especially for individuals with a history of kidney stones. - Increasing calcium intake can help mitigate oxalate absorption in the intestines, thus promoting excretion. - Foods high in citrate, such as lemon juice, can also support kidney health and help prevent stone formation.Role of Supplements- Vitamin C and collagen supplementation can elevate endogenous oxalate production, which can worsen oxalate-related health issues. - Calcium supplements are beneficial but should be approached cautiously to avoid exacerbating oxalate dumping symptoms. - Potassium is essential for restoring health impacted by oxalates, aiding in vascular and kidney function.Symptoms and Management of Oxalate Dumping- Oxalate dumping can cause a range of symptoms, including pain, fatigue, and changes in mood, often exacerbated by dietary changes. - Strategies for managing oxalate dumping include carefully timed oxalate intake and monitoring bodily responses. - Observing physical signs such as cloudy urine or skin irritations can indicate oxalate clearing and guide dietary adjustments.Long-Term Considerations and Conclusions - Understanding the long-term impact of oxalate consumption is still evolving, with limited longitudinal studies available. - The complexity of oxalate-related health issues necessitates a personalised approach, as individual responses vary. - Continuing education on oxalates is crucial, as many dietary guidelines may promote foods high in oxalates, potentially harming health.00:07 - Oxalates are natural compounds that can cause health issues when consumed in excess.02:24 - Dietitians are undervalued, leading to misperceptions about the importance of nutrition.06:39 - Health consequences of misunderstood dietary advice on oxalate-rich foods.08:43 - Oxalates can lead to connective tissue disorders and chronic pain.13:14 - Oxalates and uric acid contribute to kidney stones and gout inflammation.15:16 - Oxalate dumping can cause extreme discomfort and requires mitigation strategies.19:06 - Understanding oxalate management in a carnivore diet.20:53 - Tea strength and citrate are key for managing oxalate levels.24:30 - Dietary shifts impact metabolism and may lead to tooth sensitivity.26:21 - Oxalates can significantly impact heart and kidney health.30:02 - Calcium helps excrete oxalates but requires careful management.31:45 - Oxalate affects calcium regulation and can be managed with dietary adjustments.

In this episode, I talk about increasing awareness of other people. First, you have to know yourself, then you can clearly see others. Most people think they are good at reading people, but they are really just projecting their own fears, values, and motives. Real awareness means observing without emotion, without stories, and without guessing intentions. When you see people clearly, their behavior stops confusing you. Show Notes: [02:28]#1 Watch what people do when there's nothing to gain. [08:02]#2 Notice what people react to, not what they say. [16:22]#3 Notice people's patterns, not their isolated actions.  [18:57] Recap Next Steps: --- Power Presence is not taught. It is enforced.

Our hosts explain the main factors schools should be considering when deciding if a private capital investment makes sense for their athletic department, and if so how they should prepare for it.   For schools that decide to steer clear of such deals, they will still need to prepare for how massive influxes of cash will change their conference and college athletics as a whole.   Private equity or private capital firms are looking for reliable, and predictable revenue streams such as media rights, sponsorships, especially at schools with big brands which have been under commercialized.   Areas for fast and sustainable ROI include: Increasing headcount for revenue generation staff (sales and fundraising) Modernizing ticketing and CRM technology Changing incentive structures within the athletic department   Larger projects like mixed-use real estate development take more time and capital to institute, but have the potential for massive gains of their own.   In preparing for this episode, AJ and Charles spoke with private capital firms as well as conferences and athletic departments to uncover which themes and topics are top-of-mind at the moment.   Timestamps: 0:55 - What type of athletic department is attractive to investors? 3:15 - What does it mean to be PE-ready? 10:00 - Does winning solve all problems? 12:45 - Hypothetical: Where would you deploy capital? 18:00 - Why college has lagged behind pro sports 19:25 - FOMO for the schools that don't get on board  23:45 - Changing your financial trajectory in a single season 27:05 - Commons mistakes for athletic departments   For more insights, visit our LinkedIn page or learn more about Navigate at https://nvgt.com/.

While large bank stocks have significantly outperformed their smaller counterparts over the last few years, the tide could finally be turning, according to Jonah Marcus, partner and portfolio manager at Endeavour Capital Advisors, Inc. In the episode, Marcus said there are positive tailwinds for the banking sector, including increasing bank M&A activity, net interest margin expansion and deregulation, that will serve as a greater benefit for small and mid-cap banks. The veteran investor also discussed the valuation disparity between large and small banks; his outlook for credit quality and bank M&A activity, and the importance of technology and a bank's data strategy.

Mason Lautenschlager and his wife Hannah run Arrow L Ranch near Berthold in northwest North Dakota, where they focus on grass-based enterprises including a cow-calf herd, some direct grass-finished beef, and selling multi-bred composite coming 2-year-old bulls developed on forage.  In This Episode, We Explore:  Building a ranch back after his family sold out of farming and ranching  Buying cows at the top of the market and navigating the crash afterward  Shifting the whole operation toward lower labor and lower equipment intensity  Winter grazing decision-making around snow cover, forage quality, and flexibility  Bale grazing setup, timing, and what it changed on poorer soil areas  Water limitations, fencing lanes, and building a system for easier moves  Stockpiling forage and planning grazing around winter and spring needs  Increasing plant diversity through grazing management rather than seeding  Using forage clippings to estimate available dry matter per acre  Developing bulls on forage and selecting for longevity and fertility over max production  Why This Episode Matters  If winter feed, labor, and equipment costs are squeezing your operation, Mason's story is a practical look at how constraints can force better systems. This conversation gets into the real tradeoffs of stockpile grazing versus bale grazing, how water and fencing design affect what is possible, and why selection for fertility and longevity can matter more than pushing production.  Resources Mentioned  Agriculture Alberta video series: Managing Risk in Winter Grazing  Principled Land Managers grazing school (Bart Carmichael and Pat Guptill)  North Dakota Grazing Lands Coalition  DV Auction  Movie: Moneyball  Book: Lasater Philosophy of Cattle Raising (Tom Lasater)  Find Out More  Arrow L Ranch Facebook page | https://www.facebook.com/arrowlranchDV Auction video catalog for the Arrow L Ranch bull sale (opens Feb 6, closes Feb 8 with a soft close)  | https://www.dvauction.com/video_catalogs/13210 Looking for grass-based breeders? Explore the Grass Based Genetics directory.Upcoming Grazing EventsNoble Profitability Essentials - Ardmore, OK - February 4-5, 2026Feb 8, 2026 Arrow L Ranch Annual Production SaleVisit our Sponsors:Noble Research InstituteRedmond AgricultureArrow L Ranch Facebook page | https://www.facebook.com/arrowlranchDV Auction video catalog for the Arrow L Ranch bull sale (opens Feb 6, closes Feb 8 with a soft close) Grazing Grass LinksWebsiteCommunity (on Facebook)Original Music by Louis Palfrey

In this episode, I talk about increasing your awareness, starting with yourself. Most people think their problem is lack of information, but what they really lack is accuracy about their own behavior. You already know what to do, the issue is you are not doing it. Saying the right answer over and over is not the same as applying it. Real awareness means being honest about your patterns, your excuses, and why you keep repeating the same cycle. Show Notes: [05:52]#1 Observe your default reactions under pressure. [10:36]#2 Separate what you feel from what you do.  [12:54]#3 Identify where you consistently justify instead of decide.  [17:08]#4 Note the gaps between your self image and your daily behavior.  [21:29] Recap Episodes Mentioned: 793: The Problem Is NOT The Solution 2155: Emotions: Great Gas Pedals — Terrible Steering Wheels Next Steps: --- Power Presence is not taught.

The village of Kwigillingok, Alaska is at a crossroads after flooding, fueled by a serious Bearing Sea storm, washed away 50 houses, killing three residents. The storm is one of the increasingly frequent and increasingly severe storms to pummel the area. Combined with thawing permafrost and rising sea levels, village leaders are pushing to move — a plan that state and Native regional corporation officials reject. Recent flooding in Washington State also has tribal officials assessing their options. There too, major flooding — what used to be a once-in-a-lifetime event — threatens residents' lives and property and the natural viability of the rivers than once sustained life for local tribes. We'll get updates about the effects of increasing floods and the difficult choices tribal officials face.

Your gym might be busy…and still not making as much money as it should.   Most gym owners think increasing revenue means getting more members.

Today we look at a problem that rose in the new church in Acts. It appears to include discrimination, favoritism, and hurt feelings. But what Tony really wants us to see in this text, today, is that word “disciple.” This is what is increasing in this new church, disciples. Not converts. Not Christians. Not believers. Disciples.

INTRO It's January. Everyone's planning. But most artists are tracking the wrong numbers—followers, likes, email subscribers, website traffic. In this episode, we cut through the noise and focus on the ONE metric that actually predicts everything else in your art business: new customers acquired per year. We'll cover: Why this single number matters more than anything else The "lineup problem" that keeps most artists stuck at 7-8 customers per year The 10x challenge: compete against your 2025 self, not other artists The compounding math that turns 70 customers into 1,500+ over 10 years Why "tending the garden" is the marketing shift you need to make A copy-paste AI prompt to build your entire 2026 plan in minutes THE PROMPT Copy and paste this into Art Helper, ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or Grok: I'm an artist planning my 2026 business growth. Help me create a customer acquisition plan. Here's my data from 2025: - Number of NEW customers acquired: [X] - My current product lineup: [list what you sell - wall art, prints, cards, originals, etc.] - Average price points: [list your price ranges] - How I currently get customers: [social media, art fairs, gallery, website, etc.] Based on the 10x framework: 1. Calculate my 2026 goal (10x my 2025 customers) 2. Break it down into monthly targets 3. Identify gaps in my lineup that could help me acquire more customers at different price points 4. Suggest 3-5 specific actions I can take each month to hit my target 5. Create a simple tracking system I can use Keep it practical and specific to my art business. I want to treat this like a real business, not a hobby.

Dempsey notes a ceasefire remains unlikely because Russia currently has no interest in negotiations.1813 ALEXANDER I OF RUSSIA AND FAMILY

What the local spending is as it involves county roads and public education is a total wreck we need a fix.

This is loaded with information and exaltation about America and the world, and especially about His people.

If the stories are to be believed, and the first casualty of war is truth and all that, Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro sent some 3.6 million ounces of gold - $16 billion in today's money - to Switzerland before 2017, when the EU brought sanctions against Venezuela.Switzerland last week froze his accounts and the accounts of some 36 others with close ties. We don't know how much money he had in them, or how many accounts there were, but the figure doing the rounds is $10 billion.It has also emerged that Tether has been freezing “wallets identified as being involved in the Venezuelan oil trade.” As much as 80% of Petroleos de Venezuela's oil revenue is believed to be transacted in tether. This could be a total figure in the billions too.We also know that Venezuela was mining bitcoin for many years - when the price was a lot lower - but we don't know what they did with the coins. Did they fall into Maduro's hands? Were they sold? Were they held?The number doing the rounds here that it owns 600,000 BTC (~$60 billion). That would put Venezuela up there with Michael Saylor and Strategy. It's three times the 198,000 coins the US government itself is said to own.There's a seed phrase I'd like to know. Where are the keys, I wonder?And where did the proceeds of Venezuela's enormous oil, gold and other natural resource exports end up, exactly? Only some of them we know. At this point we remind you that the Venezuelan currency itself - the bolivar - collapsed in hyperinflation and has little to no value. Beware national currencies, particularly under socialist regimes. They don't last.There are several things I take away from all of this.First, the US dollar - whether via SWIFT or stablecoin - remains the number one international currency of choice, even for America's enemies.Second, tether and other US dollar stablecoins might be convenient - you don't have to use banks - but Tether will do what the US government tells it to do, and if the government wants your assets frozen, Tether will freeze them.Stablecoins, then, have a central point of failure. If someone can freeze them, they are not sovereign. And just as the US froze Russian US dollar assets after its invasion of Ukraine, so can and will it freeze the stablecoin assets of its enemies too.What did that 2022 freezing of Russian assets trigger? The mother of all bull markets in gold, and then silver and miners.What will this freezing trigger? A bull market in bitcoin. Possibly. Likely.It's already creeping back up.While the US does its geo-political, strategic, critical minerals thing, quaint old Western Europe is sinking deeper into higher taxes and - I'm sure they're coming eventually - capital controls. In fact, capital controls already exist in effect, banks are so heavily regulated and limiting of what you can send and to whom.The value of permissionless, international money just went up.You need to own money that they can't touch, whether by seizure or debasement.Meanwhile …Gold and silver continue to go bananas - the latter especially.So many roads lead to gold at the moment, it's hard to see when this stops.The inevitable debasement of national currencies off the back of uncontrollable government spending. Gold. Dedollarisation. Gold. Increasing geo-political uncertainty - Iran, Venezuela. Gold. Reshoring of US industry - highly inflationary. Gold. Revaluation of US gold holdings. Gold. Looming crisis from Japan as yields spike. Gold. China's ambitions for its currency and trade. Gold. Triffin's dilemma. Gold. AI putting everyone out of work leading to more money printing. Gold. Declining competence of and as a result faith in institutions worldwide. Gold.The dollar has now fallen to a 40% share of global central bank reserves, while gold is now at 30% on the back of its higher price and central bank accumulation. (Note currency and reserves are not the same).We are in a major capital rotational event the like of which occurs only every few decades.Typical portfolios are still underweight gold.If you live in a Third World Country such as the UK, I urge you to own gold or silver. The pound is going to be further devalued. The bullion dealer I recommend is The Pure Gold Company. Pricing is competitive, quality of service is high. They deliver to the UK, US, Canada and Europe or you can store your gold with them. More here.Own bothAs regular readers will know, I advocate owning both bitcoin and gold. The two assets have many similarities in that they are non-government, independent money. But the fundamental difference is that one is physical and one is digital.Both have their uses, and I have little patience with this notion that one must choose one or the other.In that regard, as with many others, my worldview is aligned with that of Charlie Morris (whose newsletters I urge you to subscribe to. There are lots of free options, including Atlas Pulse, which I love). Remember many years ago Charlie was calling for $7,000 gold by the end of this decade and many thought he was dotty. His call is looking perfectly sensible now, which it was - and which he is. Charlie previously managed a multi-billion-dollar fund for HSBC, before going solo. Aside from his newsletter, one his main endeavours has been BOLD, and he has been trying to get it listed for years. But the UK's Financial Conduct Authority is retarded.BOLD is a fund you can buy through a broker which is 75% gold and 25% bitcoin - all properly audited and backed, of course, with institutional-grade custody.Over the past five years, BOLD has returned 186%, while bitcoin has returned 202%, gold 128%, and equities 77%. The average return of bitcoin and gold together was 165%, yet BOLD was 21% ahead. This is because every month Charlie rebalances the portfolio, effectively buying more of whichever is the weaker asset to retain that 75:25 ratio. This act of rebalancing both strips out the volatility and increases the gains.Since Charlie first conceived of it in 2017, over pretty much any timeframe, BOLD (in blue) has beaten everything.Since its listing in Europe in 2022 BOLD has returned 123% since launch (in GBP to end 2025 including fees) compared to 111% for bitcoin and 113% for gold.It would have been nice to have been able to enjoy these gains in the UK. Thank goodness the FCA has protected us from them.Not for much longer.I was delighted to be at the London Stock Exchange yesterday to see the listing of this product which delivers “bitcoin-like returns with the lesser volatility of gold.”Congratulations, Charlie, for finally getting this listed. I wish you every success.Now we can actually invest.Obviously, if gold AND bitcoin both turn down, BOLD will suffer. But this is a classic buy-and-forget product, perfect for the Dolce Far Niente portfolio. You can own it in your pension, your ISA and it should become a mainstay of any portfolio.The 21Shares Bitcoin Gold ETP, BOLD, has the ticker LSE:BOLD.I am a buyer.PS some brokers such as AJ Bellend have only made this product available to pro investors. The broker I use is Interactive Investor, who are pretty good about getting these kinds of things live. If you open an account via this link you get a year's free. I am just on the phone to them now to get this listed.Disclaimer:The Flying Frisby is not regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) or any other regulatory body as a financial advisor.

Bradley Tusk is a political strategist, venture capitalist, philanthropist, podcaster, and author with a mission to promote and implement mobile voting in US elections.  He points out that the most effective way to combat low voter turnout is to make it easier for people to vote and find out information about candidates and ballot initiatives.  The Tusk Foundation has developed an open-source mobile voting platform that addresses security, authentication, and auditability, and it is being rolled out in 2026 in the US, starting with a local election in Anchorage, Alaska. We talk about: Increasing voter turnout to address political extremism by making politicians accountable to a more representative electorate Who benefits from low voter turnout, and why they might not support mobile voting How mobile voting drives cost savings, timeliness of results, and accessibility  The need to give voters choices about how and when they can vote, including in-person and by mail, but also using the convenience of their mobile device #BradleyTusk #TuskFoundation #MobileVoting #Democracy #VoterEngagement #CivicTech #DigitalDemocracy #VotingRights #ElectionSecurity #PoliticalInnovation #TechForGood #DemocracyMatters BradleyTusk.com Author of Vote with Your Phone: Why Mobile Voting is Our Final Shot at Saving

Dr. Debi breaks down the fundamental differences between betrayal and other types of trauma, explaining why traditional trauma recovery approaches often fall short for betrayal survivors.  Key Insights  The Three Core Discoveries from Dr. Debi's PhD Research:  Betrayal is a different type of trauma that requires a different approach to heal  Most people who've been betrayed experience symptoms of Post Betrayal Syndrome®  There are five predictable stages of recovery, with most people getting stuck at Stage 3  Why Betrayal Trauma Is Unique  The Dual Rebuilding Process Unlike other traumas where you rebuild your life, betrayal requires you to rebuild both your life AND your sense of self. The core aspects that get shattered include:  Confidence  Worthiness  Trust  Belonging  Sense of safety  Complete Reality Disruption With other traumas (car accidents, natural disasters, loss), your perception of reality stays intact. With betrayal:  Your entire worldview gets destroyed  Past memories become tainted and questioned  Every moment you shared is reexamined through a new, painful lens  Your trust in the person who was supposed to be your safest person is shattered  The Self-Trust Crisis When the person you trusted most proves untrustworthy, you immediately question yourself:  "How did I not see this?"  "What's wrong with my judgment?"  "Can I ever trust my own decisions again?"  This creates a paralyzing fear about moving forward and engaging with others.  Identity Destruction Betrayal triggers a complete identity crisis:  Your roles are questioned  Your sense of self is shattered  You take it personally, wondering if you're lovable, worthy, or deserving  Everything you thought you knew about yourself comes into question  Why Traditional Trauma Treatment Fall Short When it Comes to Betrayal  Standard trauma approaches focus on:  Processing the event  Reducing fear  Building coping skills  Increasing sense of safety  But these don't address:  The shattering of self-trust  The identity crisis  The complete disruption of reality and worldview  The unique isolation that comes with betrayal  The Isolation Factor  Unlike other traumas where communities rally together (like natural disasters or loss of a loved one), betrayal creates unique isolation:  People don't know what to say, so they say nothing  Friends and family may distance themselves out of discomfort  Some may minimize the betrayal to avoid dealing with it  The betrayed often suffers in silence, embarrassed and ashamed  Many cover for the betrayer to maintain appearances, suffering at their own expense  The Impossible Burden  After betrayal, people who've been betrayed are expected to:  Continue caring for children and elderly parents  Maintain their careers  Keep up with daily responsibilities  Function normally in society  All while their entire world has been shattered and they're questioning everything about themselves and their reality.  For Coaches and Practitioners  This is what your clients may be experiencing even if they haven't explicitly told you about a betrayal. They may be:  Struggling and suffering in silence  Unable to hold coherent thoughts  Barely functioning day-to-day  Covering for their betrayer while dealing with the devastation alone  Understanding these unique aspects of betrayal trauma is essential for providing effective support and guidance.    About Dr. Debi Dr. Debi Silber is the Founder and CEO of The PBT Institute, a two-time TEDx speaker, and holds a PhD in transpersonal psychology. Her groundbreaking research on betrayal led to the discovery of Post Betrayal Syndrome® and the 5 Stages from Betrayal to Breakthrough™.  Resources  Learn more about becoming a PBT-Certified Coach or Practitioner at ThePBTInstitute.com  Listen to the "From Betrayal to Breakthrough" podcast (top 1.5% globally)

Last year brought plenty of AI hype, but actual adoption in talent acquisition remained tentative. Some organizations ran pilots, most watched from the sidelines, and expectations stayed cautiously low. The technology advanced rapidly, yet widespread implementation lagged far behind the headlines. Now, heading into 2026, there's a genuine opportunity to move beyond experimentation. But extracting real value won't come from simply buying the tools. It requires building entirely new capabilities around continuous workforce transformation and reskilling. The organizations that crack this will pull ahead. Those waiting for AI to deliver results on its own will be left wondering what went wrong. So what actually needs to change for companies to see a return on their AI investments? My guest this week is Jonathan Kestenbaum, Managing Director at AMS. In our conversation, he shares his 2026 predictions for AI and outlines the transformation TA needs to make. In the interview, we discuss: The complexities of AI implementation Is workforce planning the missing link in AI transformation? Blockchain and identity Hiring manager experience as the new KPI The need for more context and the end of the resume Innovation is outpacing regulation Increasing velocity in internal mobility How will the technology develop over the next few years?

Today's guest is Vaithi Bharath, Associate Director of Data Science & AI Solutions at Bayer. Bharath joins Emerj Editorial Director Matthew DeMello to break down why clinical R&D timelines often slip for reasons that have little to do with model performance. Rather, delays compound when data moves across fragmented systems, teams rely on slow handoffs, and validation requirements turn minor adjustments into major cycle-time hits. He walks through where decision-making slows from data capture through database lock, and what it takes to accelerate workflows without replacing a validated environment.
