A successful coaching business isn't only about choosing the right strategy or working harder at the one you're already using. After a recent mastermind conversation, I couldn't stop thinking about two ingredients I see in coaching businesses that are working right now: enjoyment and hunger. In this bonus episode of the Unfinished series, I break down why you need both and what can happen when one is missing. I share why the things that feel easy and natural to you may actually be valuable data for your business, how enjoyment can create consistency, and how hunger helps you turn what you love into an intentional, repeatable strategy.

In this episode of the GaryVee Audio Experience, I sit down on the Rippin2Gether Podcast to discuss the "missing" ingredient you need to start building your own show. Ian Schwartzman, Conway The Machine, and myself also talk about the intersection of culture and collectibles, the rise of fictional character trading cards, and the origin story of VeeFriends. Hope you enjoy xoxo
Many midlife women love the outdoors but struggle to balance sun exposure with protecting their skin's health and appearance. Is it possible to enjoy the sun without putting our skin or long-term wellbeing at risk? Get clear, science-based answers about sunscreen, skin aging, and what truly matters when choosing products for yourself and your family. Dermatology and sun care have seen a wave of confusing trends, myths, and marketing claims, especially around "natural" or "mineral" sunscreens. Pediatrician, inventor, and skin health expert Mark Mitchnick brings decades of hands-on experience, from creating transparent zinc oxide (the active ingredient behind most modern mineral sunscreens) to launching his own family's trusted brand. Mark's unique blend of medical knowledge and transparent product development offers the balanced, evidence-based information midlife women deserve. What you'll learn: How to gauge when sunscreen is actually necessary and when you might not need it The real differences between mineral and chemical sunscreens, plus what "broad spectrum" means for your skin's health Why ingredient labels, marketing claims, and SPF numbers can mislead even on "doctor recommended" brands The truth about sprays, powders, and various sunscreen delivery methods (including what works best for active families) How to model healthy sun habits at midlife and set the tone for your family, without fear or perfectionism Skin health in midlife goes beyond wrinkle prevention it's about maintaining confidence, minimizing unnecessary worry, and making informed choices that support both your health and your lifestyle. This conversation demystifies sunscreen so you can cut through the hype, protect your skin, and spend more time outdoors with trust and ease. getburnd.com (use code NT15 for 15% off) natalietysdal.com https://www.instagram.com/ntysdal https://www.tiktok.com/@ntysdal https://www.facebook.com/NatalieTysdal
Hey friend, - Have you wanted to clean up the products in your home but felt overwhelmed by all the ingredient lists? - Do you assume clean living has to be expensive or complicated? - Do you wonder which ingredients actually matter most to avoid first? In this episode, I'm sharing the five ingredients I personally avoid in the products we use at home — parabens, fragrance, petroleum-based ingredients, SLS, and phthalates — why each one is linked to inflammation and hormone disruption, and how to spot them on a label without needing a chemistry degree. This is a simple healthy habit and a starting point for cleaner living, not a full overhaul of everything you own.

What if the biggest thing standing between you and the life you want isn't your circumstances, your past, or your limitations, but the identity you've been programmed to believe is you? In this powerful conversation, Darin sits down with health entrepreneur, coach, and author Jim Curtis to explore what it really takes to release the past, reclaim personal responsibility, and consciously become a new version of yourself. After developing a spinal cord lesion at just 19 that eventually left him unable to walk, Jim spent years searching everywhere from major medical institutions to shamans, healers, hypnosis, and spiritual teachers for someone who could fix him. Eventually, his search brought him back to himself. Jim shares the framework behind his new book, The Book of Possibility: Release, Align, Become. Together, he and Darin unpack how childhood programming becomes adult identity, why awareness is the first step toward freedom, how resentment keeps us attached to old versions of ourselves, and why changing your life often requires having the courage to become someone your current identity doesn't yet recognize. They also explore the dangers of outsourcing your spiritual growth, psychedelics as tools rather than destinations, radical responsibility, forgiveness, purpose, human connection, and why the coming age of AI and automation may make genuine face-to-face connection more important than ever. Ultimately, this is a conversation about possibility: not waiting for someone to save you, but realizing that you are the possibility you've been searching for. What You'll Learn Why Jim believes you need to become your own guru instead of constantly searching for someone to fix you How a spinal cord lesion at 19 completely changed the trajectory of Jim's life Why pain and suffering can become gateways to transformation How childhood experiences and subconscious programming shape adult identity Jim's Release, Align, Become framework for creating lasting change Why forgiveness can free you without requiring reconciliation How radical responsibility breaks the victim-villain dynamic Why changing your identity can feel terrifying even when your current life is making you miserable The difference between using psychedelics as transformational tools and using them to escape Why human connection, purpose, curiosity, and presence may become increasingly valuable in an automated world Chapters 00:00:03 – Welcome to SuperLife 00:00:34 – Sponsor: MycoDog 00:02:01 – Meet Jim Curtis and The Book of Possibility 00:04:00 – What if you are the possibility? 00:05:17 – Why people stop themselves from dreaming 00:05:50 – Stop outsourcing your spiritual growth 00:07:05 – No one is coming to save you 00:08:28 – Ego, shadow work, and creating space to choose 00:09:10 – Why you should question the guru 00:10:11 – Ram Dass and the reality of being human 00:11:15 – Darin's first experience with ayahuasca 00:12:17 – Psychedelics can open the door, but then what? 00:13:02 – Sponsor: Manna Vitality 00:14:57 – Psychedelics, ibogaine, and bringing the lessons back to life 00:16:48 – Powerful tools aren't meant to become an escape 00:17:13 – Hypno-meditation and changing yourself from within 00:18:23 – Why Jim wouldn't take away your pain 00:19:09 – Jim's beliefs about trauma, illness, and healing 00:20:05 – The spinal cord lesion that changed Jim's life 00:20:55 – Losing his ability to walk and searching the world for healing 00:21:44 – Discovering hypnosis, meditation, and altered states 00:22:39 – Meeting Dr. Brian Weiss and experiencing past-life regression 00:23:11 – Wall Street, WebMD, and walking away from the wrong identity 00:24:10 – Jim's health collapses again 00:25:25 – The wake-up call that completely changed his future 00:26:02 – How radically changing your identity changes your life 00:27:31 – The Release, Align, Become method 00:28:12 – How childhood programming becomes adult identity 00:29:01 – You have to see the cage before you can escape it 00:29:24 – Forgiveness as a tool for releasing the past 00:30:02 – Escaping the cage of resentment 00:30:57 – Are adults still reacting from their eight-year-old selves? 00:31:25 – You are not your thoughts, emotions, or identity 00:32:05 – Why becoming someone new feels terrifying 00:33:24 – On the other side of pain is possibility 00:35:10 – Darin takes responsibility for the end of his marriage 00:37:14 – Breaking the villain-victim dynamic 00:38:01 – The small conversations that create enormous change 00:39:12 – Releasing the old self 00:39:44 – Aligning with what you actually want 00:40:30 – Who must you become to create that life? 00:41:15 – Creating and embodying a new identity 00:41:54 – Why healthy choices become acts of self-honor 00:42:37 – Building health into your identity instead of obsessing over it 00:44:07 – Expanding your consciousness and seeing new possibilities 00:45:26 – Reprogramming the brain through Jim's book and hypno-meditations 00:46:10 – What happens when possibilities start opening 00:46:51 – The possibility isn't outside you.

You don't have to spend your entire life searching for the next guru, healer, relationship, achievement, or external thing that will finally make you whole. Become aware of the programming you absorbed, release the identity that no longer serves you, align with what you actually want, and start becoming the person capable of living it. The moment you stop waiting to be saved and recognize that you are the source, possibility stops being something somewhere in the future. It becomes who you are."
Today's guest is Paul Kedrosky, a fellow at the MIT Institute for the Digital Economy, partner at SK Ventures and former sell-side analyst. In today's episode, Paul Kedrosky explains why AI sits at the intersection of every force behind the biggest bubbles. He walks through why tokens are the fastest-deflating commodity ever, why more than half the data center buildout runs on debt instead of cash flow, and why an IPO wave pressures the market's biggest winners. To close, Paul argues AI already drives most US GDP growth, and revisits how badly humans misjudge scale.

When news broke that the FDA finally approved bemotrizinol — the first new sunscreen ingredient cleared in the United States in over two decades — many people in the health community celebrated it as the ultimate breakthrough in sun protection. Since it's been used safely across Europe for over 20 years and underwent extensive safety testing, the immediate assumption is that any bemotrizinol-based sunscreen hitting shelves is an automatic win for clean living. But that assumes the active ingredient is the only thing ending up on your skin. So the real issue isn't whether bemotrizinol itself is safe — it's how manufacturers formulate the actual products they sell to consumers. In this episode, I break down the science and safety profile behind bemotrizinol, explain why I ordered the first product available on Amazon the moment it launched, and reveal why I sent it right back without even opening the bottle. On paper, bemotrizinol is arguably the best chemical UV filter available. Unlike older chemical sunscreen ingredients that readily absorb through the skin into the bloodstream and act as endocrine disruptors, bemotrizinol has a large molecular weight that prevents it from crossing the skin-blood barrier. Multiple clinical trials show zero detectable absorption even with repeated daily applications. It's exceptionally photostable, does not mimic estrogen or suppress testosterone, and offers broad-spectrum protection without leaving the thick white cast typical of physical mineral blockers. The problem begins when you look at the rest of the bottle. Curious to see what was currently available, I bought an SPF 50 sunscreen from BioPop Health marketed prominently around its bemotrizinol content. But turning the bottle over revealed a lineup of problematic companion ingredients: octinoxate (a known xenoestrogen banned in Hawaii and Palau for environmental and hormonal toxicity), a formaldehyde-releasing preservative, an iodine releaser restricted in Europe, propylparabens, and synthetic fragrances. Combining an advanced, clean UV filter with legacy endocrine-disrupting chemicals defeats the entire purpose of seeking out a better ingredient. My personal approach to the sun hasn't changed: I focus on building a natural UV callus through gradual, year-round exposure, and I rely on shade, protective clothing, or clean mineral sunscreen from OneSkin when intense sun demands it. Bemotrizinol is a genuinely promising ingredient, but until reputable brands release clean formulations free of hormone-disrupting fillers, grabbing the first bemotrizinol sunscreen you see on the market is a mistake.

In this Supplement Ingredient Series episode, Nurse Doza makes the case for the B vitamin nobody talks about: vitamin B6. Everyone knows B12 — the pills, the injections, the whole routine — but B6 is the cofactor your body leans on to build serotonin, dopamine, and GABA, the neurotransmitters behind mood, focus, and steady daytime energy. He covers who tends to run low, why intake alone doesn't guarantee good status, and where an adaptogen-plus-adrenal formula like Zen fits in. FEATURED PARTNER Zen (Stress Relief) by MSW Nutrition is the formula Nurse Doza reaches for when the B6 conversation turns practical. Each capsule delivers 15 mg of vitamin B6 as P5P — the already-active form your enzymes can use directly — alongside 125 mg of bovine adrenal gland (Argentina) and a five-botanical adaptogen blend: rhodiola, Asian ginseng, eleuthero, schisandra, and licorice, plus vitamin C and 150 mg of pantothenic acid. It's built to support the body's adaptogenic response to everyday stressors and support energy production and stamina.

You can also see it on YouTube.Devin: What is your superpower?Jackson: I would say it's, it's having a mission, um, that you are very passionate about and your ability to kind of see through the next few steps, uh, you know, the road ahead. Um, but then recruiting the right people along the way.Farm to Pet is proving that a simple, single-ingredient dog treat can challenge the highly processed pet snack aisle while building a fast-growing business.Jackson Jones, founder and CEO of Farm to Pet, started with a problem close to home: he wanted something healthier for his dog, Rooney. During the pandemic, he began experimenting in his basement with a KitchenAid mixer, a dehydrator and a simple idea.He told me, “I wanted to create something that was what I considered the healthiest treat for my dog and had an idea that we could take a chicken breast, we could take a turkey breast, and we could dehydrate that and just literally use it and nothing else.”That “nothing else” became the heart of the Farm to Pet brand. The company makes single ingredient treats in a crunchy chip format that dogs love. Jackson explained the common reaction perfectly: “That's one of the first things people ask is, are you sure it only has one ingredient? What else do you put in there?”What began as a homemade snack for Rooney has grown into a vertically integrated pet treat company with national reach. Jackson moved from the basement into one facility after another, ultimately landing in a larger production space that allows the company to meet demand. Along the way, Farm to Pet built sales through local retailers, Amazon and other channels.I was struck by Jackson's candor about the challenge. “It wasn't an overnight success by any means,” he said. “It's been steps and steps along this journey.”For me, the human interest in this story is the combination of love for a pet, entrepreneurial persistence and a clean-label product that is easy for customers to understand. Pet parents increasingly want transparency. Jackson built the company around exactly that.Farm to Pet is also raising capital through a regulated investment crowdfunding campaign on StartEngine. Jackson said the campaign grew out of the need to fund more capacity while keeping the company in family control and inviting aligned investors into the journey. You can review the campaign at startengine.com/offering/farm-to-pet.I love seeing a purpose-driven consumer brand use community capital to grow. Jackson is not just selling treats. He is helping pet owners rethink what belongs in a dog's diet, one simple chip at a time.tl;dr:Jackson turned homemade chicken chips into the fast-growing Farm to Pet brand.Single ingredient treats provide a simple, healthy alternative to processed pet snacks.Farm to Pet is scaling operations with a focus on transparency and vertical integration.Jackson's leadership blends mission-driven passion, humility, team building, and trust.Practical insights for founders show how purpose and community can fuel business growth.How to Develop Mission-Driven Leadership As a SuperpowerJackson's superpower is mission-driven leadership. As he described it, the work starts with “having a mission…that you are very passionate about” and the ability “to kind of see through the next few steps.” Just as important, he said, is “recruiting the right people along the way.” Jackson was quick to emphasize that leadership also means humility. “It starts out, I think, by knowing what you're not naturally great at,” he said. For him, leadership is not about pretending to know everything. It is about building a team, listening, observing, changing his mind and giving talented people “the space and the time and the authority” to run with important work.Jackson illustrated this superpower through his early work with Miranda, who helped shape the company's social media and marketing. He admitted he did not know Instagram and was trying to DM people without much confidence. Rather than struggle alone, he invited Miranda to join the company and lead that work. She became a key part of the team, helping bring the crowdfunding campaign and brand story to life. Jackson's role was not to control every detail. It was to recognize talent, create space for ownership and let her strengths complement his own.Know what you are not naturally great at before trying to lead every function yourself.Build around a mission you care about deeply enough to sustain you through hard days.Look a few steps ahead so your team can prepare for growth before it arrives.Recruit people whose strengths fill your gaps and trust them with real responsibility.Listen carefully, observe what people enjoy and notice where they naturally excel.Give team members the space, time and authority to make decisions and own outcomes.Stay willing to change your mind when new information or better ideas emerge.Let go of work others can do better so you can focus on scaling the mission.By following Jackson's example and advice, you can make mission-driven leadership a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.

What if the clothes touching your skin every day are quietly exposing you to chemicals you never agreed to wear? In this eye-opening conversation, Chris Kolbe pulls back the curtain on the plastic-heavy clothing industry, revealing the hidden chemicals, questionable dyes, PFAS, and “recycled” materials that can turn your closet into a potential source of exposure. We dive into the most important swaps to make, how to identify truly cleaner fabrics and underwear, why European standards often differ from those in the U.S., and whether you really have to sacrifice performance to choose healthier clothing. Plus, Chris explains the science behind HyperNatural's innovative Hyper-Cool Jade™ technology and shares his vision for transforming the apparel industry from the inside out.Chris Kolbe is the cognizant founder of HyperNatural, which he launched in 2022 after recognizing the overlooked health potential of bio-based materials in an apparel industry dominated by plastic-heavy synthetics. He saw what consumers were up against: the “Perfect Problem” of opaque systems pushing chemical-loaded performance fabrics into closets and onto skin with little awareness. Through HyperNatural, he is building a premium wellness apparel brand and bio-based materials platform powered by patented nano fiber technology called Hyper-Cool Jade™ to create a cleaner, higher-performing alternative to the synthetic / chemical status quo.With more than 30 years of experience across apparel, retail, merchandising, design, and brand building, Chris has held senior executive leadership roles at some of the industry's most recognized brands and retailers, including Polo Ralph Lauren, Urban Outfitters, J.Crew, and Kohl's, as well as serving as President of Lands' End.SHOW NOTES:0:38 Welcome to the podcast!4:23 About Chris Kolbe5:32 Welcome him to the show!6:30 The state of our clothing supply chain8:42 The real problem with plastic12:38 Beware of the $20 t-shirt15:16 The most important swaps to make17:15 Can you avoid PFAS?19:06 European vs American standards23:50 Natural “biomaterials” to look for26:24 Hypercool Jade27:44 Toxic vs safe dyes30:11 Hypernatural philosophy & health benefits32:05 Safe standards to look for when shopping37:45 Clean underwear40:10 Golf + feedback from our husbands!42:15 Why you can have both performance and clean45:29 What we want in clean athleisure48:25 How to create change in the industry49:25 Is “recycled clothing” clean?54:34 More about Hypernatural55:43 His final advice58:05 Thanks for tuning in!RESOURCES: https://hypernaturalstyle.com/IG: @hypernaturalstyleTikTok: @hypernaturalstyleSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/biohacker-babes-podcast/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brands
What can a few grains of asteroid dust tell us about the origins of life on Earth?In this episode, Host Rick Crandall talks with NASA astrochemist José C. Aponte about the organic chemistry preserved inside asteroid Bennu. From NASA's OSIRIS-REx sample-return mission to amino acids, nucleobases, and the mystery of life's left-handed molecules, Aponte explains how scientists search for clues to our chemical origins. This one is going to be cool!What you'll hear:Why NASA traveled to Bennu: Pristine asteroid material offers evidence that meteorites altered by Earth's environment cannot.How scientists prevent contamination: A fingerprint can contain more organic material than the tiny Bennu samples researchers analyze.What researchers discovered: Bennu contains 14 of the 20 amino acids used to build proteins and all five nucleobases found in DNA and RNA.Why molecular diversity matters: Thousands of nitrogen-bearing compounds reveal the complex chemical environment of the early solar system.How a mass spectrometer works: Aponte explains how scientists use molecular fragments to identify compounds inside asteroid material.The mystery of left-handed amino acids: Life uses almost exclusively one mirror-image form, but scientists still do not know why.The search for tryptophan: Researchers found tentative evidence that could represent the first extraterrestrial detection of this complex amino acid.What Bennu's salts reveal: Minerals formed through evaporating water suggest Bennu's material originated in a different part of the solar system.Learn More:Read the full show notes on the Wings Over the Rockies websiteDonate to Wings Over the Rockies Air & Space MuseumSubscribe and leave a review to support the showThis episode is supported in part by United Airlines.
What if your genes aren't controlling your destiny nearly as much as you've been taught to believe? And what if many of the patterns shaping your health, relationships, behavior, and perception of the world were programmed into you before you were even consciously aware of them? In this powerful conversation, Darin sits down with stem cell biologist and bestselling author Dr. Bruce Lipton to explore his theories around epigenetics, subconscious programming, consciousness, stress, evolution, and the mind-body connection. Bruce also opens up about his experience with tongue cancer and how it forced him to confront the very ideas about biology and belief that he had spent decades teaching. Together, they explore Bruce's claim that we spend as much as 95% of our lives operating through subconscious programs, many of which were downloaded during early childhood. Bruce explains why he believes our perception of the environment influences biology, why taking responsibility for unconscious patterns is essential to reclaiming personal power, and how those programs can be rewritten. The conversation expands beyond individual health into humanity itself, challenging the cultural story of "survival of the fittest" and exploring cooperation, community, consciousness, spirituality, environmental collapse, and why Bruce believes the upheaval we're experiencing may actually represent an evolutionary turning point. What You'll Learn How Bruce's experience with tongue cancer challenged him to apply his own teachings Why Bruce believes subconscious programming controls much of our everyday behavior How childhood experiences may become unconscious programs that follow us into adulthood Why falling in love can temporarily interrupt subconscious programming Bruce's explanation of epigenetics and why he rejects genetic determinism Why taking responsibility for your unconscious patterns can help you reclaim your power How stress, belief, and perception interact within Bruce's model of health and disease Why Bruce challenges the cultural interpretation of "survival of the fittest" How cooperation, community, and harmony fit into his theory of human evolution Why Bruce believes changing collective consciousness begins with individuals living differently Chapters 00:00:03 – Welcome to SuperLife 00:00:34 – Sponsor: Miko Dog 00:02:00 – Introducing Dr. Bruce Lipton 00:03:33 – Bruce's personal experience with tongue cancer 00:04:21 – Why his diagnosis brought decades of research to the forefront 00:05:23 – Bruce's belief that cancer is a symptom, not the underlying problem 00:06:23 – Why Bruce believes this message matters right now 00:07:25 – The biological imperative and humanity's drive to survive 00:08:22 – You are not a victim of your genetics 00:10:15 – Are 95% of our lives controlled by subconscious programming?

Much of what shapes your life may be operating beneath conscious awareness, but Bruce's central message is that those patterns don't have to remain permanent. By becoming aware of the programs you're running, taking responsibility for what you're creating, and consciously choosing the beliefs, relationships, communities, and vision you want to reinforce, you can begin creating a life based less on fear and struggle and more on love, cooperation, and possibility."

What if everything we've been taught about wealth is backwards? In this deeply personal solo episode, Darin opens up about a subject he rarely discusses: money. After making millions of dollars, losing wealth more than once, trusting the wrong people, making bad investments, fighting lawsuits, and rebuilding again, Darin shares the lessons that completely transformed his relationship with money. He explores the conflicting money beliefs he inherited from his parents, why trusting someone's promises instead of their patterns cost him dearly, and why he now believes discernment should come before net worth. Darin also explains why money shouldn't be the destination but rather a tool for creation, contribution, and impact. From investing in himself and spending years building projects before they generated income to creating stronger financial structures and learning to protect what he creates, this episode is about redefining wealth beyond accumulation. Darin reveals why true abundance comes from aligning money with your purpose, vision, values, and the things you genuinely care about.

Other guests include Gary Michuta with more Messianic prophecies, pastoral counselor Kevin Prendergast, and Rita Heikenfeld with Bible Foods. Plus news, weather, sports, and more… ***** The Memorare of St. Bernard of Clairvaux Remember, O most gracious Virgin Mary,that never was it knownthat any one who fled to thy protection,implored thy help,and sought thy intercession,was left unaided. Inspired with this confidence,I fly unto thee,O Virgin of virgins, my Mother,to thee I come,before thee I stand sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate!despise not my petitions,but, in thy mercy, hear and answer me. Amen. ***** RECIPES FROM RITA: ZUCCHINI BREAD Double chocolate zucchini bread/cake Ingredients:1 -1/2 cups shredded zucchini1 cup all purpose flour – I use King Arthur unbleached1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, sifted1 teaspoon baking soda1/4 teaspoon baking powder1/4 teaspoon salt1/2 to 3/4 teaspoon cinnamon1/4 teaspoon allspice1/2 cup canola oil1/2 cup sugar1/2 cup light brown sugar2 large eggs1 teaspoon vanilla3/4 cup semi- sweet chocolate chips Instructions:Preheat oven to 350. Spray 9 x 5 loaf pan. Set aside shredded zucchini. Whisk together flour, cocoa, baking soda, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and allspice. Set aside. Beat oil, sugars, eggs, and vanilla until well blended and fold in zucchini. Add flour mixture, mixing just until combined. Fold in chips. Bake until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean, about 55 to 65 minutes. Place on wire rack to cool 10 minutes, then remove and finish cooling. Large Batch moist and marvelous zucchini bread with Chai essence Ingredients:3 cups grated unpeeled zucchini (squeeze moisture out before measuring and pack zucchini firmly into measuring cups)3 cups sugar1-1/2 cups vegetable oil – I used canola4 large eggs2 teaspoons vanilla3-1/4 cups all purpose flour1 teaspoon cinnamon2-3 teaspoons dry Chai tea blend – 2 will give a mild taste; 3 a more robust taste2 teaspoons baking powder1 teaspoon baking soda1/2 teaspoon salt1-1/4 cups chopped nuts – optional – I used toasted pecans InstructionsPreheat oven to 350.Spray 2 large loaf or 3 regular loaf pans.Mix zucchini, sugar, oil, eggs and vanilla. Beat on medium speed 2 minutes.Combine flour, cinnamon, Chai blend, baking powder, baking soda, salt and nuts together. Add to zucchini mixture and blend well.Pour into prepared pans. Bake on middle rack 45 minutes to one hour or until done. A toothpick inserted deep into center will come out clean. My 2 large loaf pans took 55 minutes to bake. Tips:Ball bat sized zucchini works great If you grow zucchini, you know it can go from slender to ball bat size seemingly overnight. Overgrown zucchini has good flavor and shreds up just fine. Can you peel zucchini? I don’t, but Cheryl Bullis, a professional baker from Clermont County, does peel her zucchini before measuring. Squeeze hard to get moisture out. Zucchini is notorious for a high moisture content which can make batter too runny. Add nuts to dry ingredients; This insures that the nuts stay suspended throughout the bread and prevents them from sinking to the bottom of the loaf. ***** Full list of guestsSupport the show: https://www.sacredheartradio.com/donate-now/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In this episode of Revolution Health Radio, Chris breaks down the science behind joint pain, osteoarthritis, and cartilage degeneration while challenging one of the most common assumptions about joint health—that glucosamine and chondroitin are the gold standard for protecting cartilage and relieving pain. He explains why current clinical evidence no longer supports those supplements as the best option and instead reviews the clinical evidence supporting three promising ingredients—native type II collagen, natural eggshell membrane, and Boswellia serrata—and discusses how each works through a unique biological pathway to reduce inflammation, preserve cartilage, improve mobility, and support long-term joint function.

Paul is telling the church at Corinth they need to be united, not divided, so he is in the middle of telling them about how to act when they come together. After talking about the gifts of the Spirit and how these gifts are to bring unity to the body, he goes into telling them about a more excellent way...Love. Love is a noun but instead of using adjectives to describe Love, Paul uses verbs. Verbs are action words which means Love is an action, something that we do! DC Talk had it right when they sang about Love being a verb! We break down the ingredients of Love in today's episode.

Kevin and Bill discuss the political ingredients that produce war – and the similarities between today and the periods leading up to WW1 and WW2.

Carl Pradelli was 18 months into building a co-branded skincare line with the Home Shopping Network when the first production run came back wrong. Ingredients specified at five percent had gone in at one. Ingredients specified at one had gone in at five. The same women who had praised the samples now reported the product was making things worse. Learn more at https://www.markgraban.com/mistake362 The contract manufacturer had come recommended by an acquaintance of one of Carl's partners. He had visited the facility and found real credentials -- FDA certifications, inspections, everything he expected. What he had not done was his own due diligence on a decision capable of making or breaking the business. When he brought the batch records back, the manufacturer did not offer to remake the product. They argued it was not as bad as he thought. Then their accounting department called about payment. Carl is co-founder and CEO of Nature City, the direct-to-consumer supplements company he and his wife Beth started in 2002. He spent 12 years in investment banking and private equity before that. In this episode he explains why he has used the same manufacturer for more than 20 years instead of quoting every job to three vendors, why the dime you save per bottle evaporates the moment something goes wrong, and where quality failures enter a supply chain at the supplier, manufacturer, and brand owner levels. He also shares how he handles it when someone on his own team makes a mistake -- and why hiding one is the only version that worries him.

When God moves, nothing stays the same.(2 Kings 22-23)
What happens when a journalist who hates the cold decides to spend three years immersing himself in one of the most extreme athletic subcultures on Earth? In this fascinating conversation, Darin sits down with award-winning journalist and author Chris Ballard to explore the world behind his book The Plunge. After a hip replacement at just 42 forced Chris to rethink his identity as an athlete, cold water initially became a tool for recovery. But curiosity eventually pulled him much deeper, from cold showers and plunges to competitive ice swimming in water below 41°F and ultimately representing the United States at the Ice Swimming World Championships. Together, Darin and Chris separate cold exposure hype from reality, explore what actually happens to the body in freezing water, and reveal why the greatest benefits Chris discovered weren't necessarily physical.

Kylee Ingram: Decision Science, Cognitive Diversity, and the Ingredients for Better Leadership Decisions Guest: Kylee Ingram, Co Founder of Wizer Host: Julie Riga In This Episode: Kylee's journey from television producer to co founder of Wizer, a company built on decision science and organizational intelligence How an interactive kids app, a Cannes nomination, and time in a Boulder, Colorado tech accelerator led Kylee into the world of crowd science The research behind Wizer, drawn from Doctor Juliet Bourke's work at Deloitte and mathematician Scott Page at the University of Michigan The six ways people approach a decision, and why every person has a primary and secondary decision making style Why outward diversity matters, drawn from jury studies showing homogenized groups make weaker, less self aware decisions The Boeing and NASA examples, and what happens when experienced voices are sidelined for cost or convenience The three biases every decision room must account for, social bias, information bias, and capacity bias How to design a decision room with intention instead of relying on a leader's instinct or a captain's call Why buy in increases when people see their own perspective represented in the room, even indirectly The idea of defensible decisions, and how the right process helps leaders stand behind a choice with confidence The free decision profile tool at wiser.business, and how Wizer's built in communication tool guides team members on how best to reach one another Wize Snaps, a separate outreach tool originally built for the charity sector to profile a third party before reaching out Wizer's current work in the Indigenous sector in Australia, helping communities reframe their business and generate income through consultation How decision science applies well beyond the boardroom, including family conversations and small team settings Key Takeaways: Know your own bias before you walk into any decision Build decision rooms with intention, not instinct Protect experienced voices, especially when pressure pushes teams toward shortcuts Representation in the room builds real, lasting buy in Purpose driven leadership starts with genuine curiosity about how people think Small teams and families can apply decision science just as effectively as large organizations Memorable Quotes: "There's science behind how to make a good decision." "We stand here on the shoulders of some great research to build out this company." "Know that you're biased."

Orange wines — the hype, not necessarily the wine itself. Dream celebrity spokesperson for Italian wine? George Clooney. Consider this his official invitation. Mark Orsi's Cacio e Pepe Recipe Looking for a simple pasta to pair with Italian wine? Mark shares his recipe for cacio e pepe, the classic Roman pasta made with Parmigiano-Reggiano and black pepper. Ingredients 2 tablespoons whole black peppercorns 4 1/2 cups finely grated Pecorino Romano, plus more for serving 1 1/2 cups finely grated Parmigiano-Reggiano 1 pound dried tonnarelli Directions1) Bring a large pot of water to a boil. (Do not add salt) 2) Meanwhile, in a very large nonstick skillet or pot set over high heat, toast the peppercorns just until fragrant. Let cool, then grind or crush very coarsely. Reserve 1 teaspoon for serving. 3) In the same skillet or pot, combine the cheeses and remaining pepper. Add 1 ½ cups warm water and stir to make a thick pecorino cream. 4) Add the pasta to the boiling water and stir. Keep the heat very high until the water returns to a boil, then stir again and adjust the heat as needed to keep the water bubbling. Set a timer for 8 minutes. 5) Set the pecorino cream over very low heat. 6) When the timer goes off, scoop out about ½ cup of the pasta cooking water and set aside. Taste the pasta and continue cooking until the pasta is done to your liking. 7) Drain pasta very well (this is important, as adding too much hot water can cause the cheese to clump) and add to the pecorino cream. Use tongs or two forks to stir, turn and toss the pasta in the sauce over low heat until the cheese melts and the sauce becomes sticky. Don't add any water yet, just keep tossing. To test, squeeze a drop of sauce between your thumb and finger. When the sauce is thick and forms strings like glue, it is ready. 8) If it starts to dry out, add cooking water, 1 tablespoon at a time, and toss thoroughly before adding more. Twist the pasta into a nest, if desired. 9) Dust with additional pecorino and the reserved pepper. 10) Serve immediately with a glass of Italian wine, preferably Orsi Hugo Spritz Recipe For another taste of Italy at home, make a refreshing Hugo Spritz with Prosecco, elderflower liqueur and fresh mint. Ingredients 4–5 fresh mint leaves ½–1 ounce elderflower liqueur, such as St-Germain 4 ounces chilled Prosecco 1 ounce club soda or sparkling water Ice Lime wheel or lemon slice for garnish Instructions Place the mint leaves in a large wine glass. Gently press the mint with a muddler or spoon to release its aroma. Fill the glass with ice. Add elderflower liqueur, followed by Prosecco and club soda. Stir gently.

Integrity Under Pressure by Autumn Dickson Job is a profound biblical exploration of faith and loyalty to God. Job loved the Lord, and he stayed true to Him. In the midst of great tribulation as well as riches, Job kept himself close to the Lord. Here is a verse that tells us a bit about Job. Job 2:3 And the Lord said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job, that there is none like him in the earth, a perfect and an upright man, one that feareth God, and escheweth evil? and still he holdeth fast his integrity, although thou movedst me against him, to destroy him without cause. By this point in time, Job has lost all of his property and riches. Worse than that, he has also lost his children. Despite this being the case, Job remained an upright man. There is one phrase in particular that I want to talk about, namely, “he holdeth fast his integrity.” What does it really mean to have the Christlike attribute of integrity? The more I try to write about integrity, the more difficult it becomes. Integrity is a mixture of things. Preach My Gospel gives us a great definition that I want to paraphrase. Integrity is when you love God and stay true to Him because of that love. Integrity means that you know there are absolute truths and you align your life with those absolute truths no matter what comes along. It includes deep honesty, and what you choose to do when you're alone is a good measure of your integrity. In order to develop integrity, you need two ingredients: a knowledge of absolute truth and then alignment with that knowledge. Ingredient one: a knowledge of absolute truth. There are different types of integrity. There is a general sense of integrity where you hold fast to your principles, and then there is a religious integrity where you hold fast to God's principles. It doesn't matter how much general integrity you have if your principles are weak. Creating a house entirely made of straw may be consistent. It may be honest in the sense that you're not pretending your house is anything other than what it is, but at the end of the day, it's still straw. It won't be able to withstand load or protect you. We have to start with strong principles, God's principles, in order to build something that will protect us and stand strong under the weight of adversity. It is worth starting with the right materials if you're going to build something. Starting with the right materials means understanding reality. If you understand that you're a child of God and that there is an eternity waiting for you on the other side, it's (hopefully) going to change your choices. Ingredient two: aligning with that knowledge. You would think that if you've got a solid foundation of truth, you would want to stay true to it. You would assume that if you could see that there are eternal realities, you would see the long game and hold on. Unfortunately, it's simply not always true. For example, King Zedekiah knew Jeremiah was a prophet. He protected and consulted Jeremiah. He even admits that he believes Jeremiah, and yet, he ignored Jeremiah's warnings. He didn't align himself with the truth that he knew, and tragedy struck because of it. In the face of fear and rejection, Zedekiah crumbled. And because he crumbled, his kingdom fell and the Jews were scattered. So in order to reach integrity (the ability to withstand pressure), we need knowledge of truth and we have to align ourselves with that truth. It's not enough to have one ingredient or the other; they have to come together in order to stand strong. Action without knowledge of eternal realities stops when pressure builds. Knowledge without aligning yourself is moot; it doesn't affect you or save you or bring you joy. I'm going to make up a ridiculous parable, but it teaches my point. A stranger comes to you, sets down a stool, and convinces you to step onto it. The stranger warns you that if you get down, you'll die. It's easy enough to stay standing on the stool for a little while, but then your legs get tired. You need to go to the bathroom. You're hungry and cold. Why on earth are you standing on a stool because a stranger told you to do so? Now imagine someone you deeply love and trust doing the same exercise. They warn you. You know they have your best interest at heart. You trust their wisdom and knowledge of reality. Despite mounting discomfort, you choose to hold on because you trust your loved one. Integrity is what you find when you keep standing on the stool even when it's difficult. It's a mixture of trust in eternal principles and resilience. And then there is the happy ending. Job is blessed with even more than he had previously. Even beyond the physical blessings, Job comes out a stronger man with a deeper appreciation of salvation and heaven. Integrity allowed him to conquer and come through on the other side. Recap. Ingredient one. Knowledge of God and eternal principles. Integrity is powerful because it takes our acts of faith and turns them meaningful. No longer are we reading scriptures because a stranger asked us to. We read them to get closer to our Father in Heaven. And because we know Him, we seek Him out in times of trouble and need. Rather than turning our back on Him in anger, we find all the solace we need. It helps us to escape bitterness. Ingredient two. Aligning ourselves with that knowledge. Resilience gives us personal power as we grow into what our Father would have us become. It forges strength of character. We come out refined on the other end, seeing more clearly and that much more convinced of the truthfulness of gospel principles. Integrity is powerful. It makes the gospel pathway worth it. We can see the blessings, and we stay on track to receive them. I testify that Heavenly Father is seeking to teach you truth. He wants you to see things as they are, and He wants you to choose to change your life according to that truth so you can experience the same joy He has experienced.

What if one of the greatest keys to revival isn't another strategy, program, or method, but humility?Evangelist Dan MacLeod returns to The Hacka Podcast for a powerful and challenging conversation about the role humility plays in revival, ministry, leadership, and the life of every believer.Beginning with Jesus' triumphal entry in Matthew 21, Dan traces a thread of humility through Scripture—from the borrowed donkey and garments laid before Jesus to the cleansing of the temple and the outpouring of the Holy Ghost at Pentecost. He challenges us to consider whether we can have the right actions while carrying the wrong attitude—and whether excellence without humility can become little more than human production.We also discuss pride in ministry, surrendering our reputation, social media and image culture, materialism within the Western church, selfish ambition, and why revival in the church must begin with revival in the individual.If we truly want God to move in our lives, families, churches, and cities, perhaps the question isn't simply what more we need to do—but what we need to surrender.
I'm back with another concept that the manifestation / spiritual world glosses over but fails to explain at the depths required to manifest the career, relationships, and success we all desire. Unconditional love sounds nice, but it's so much more than just saying "yeah, I love them unconditionally." When you get the right formula to install this into your creator field, it's pure magic for creating anything you want in life.Embodying unconditional love will help you avoid so many crashouts, handle triggering people in your life in a matter of minutes, and keep your emotions balanced so you can avoid unnecessary reflections.Tune in to start seeing the world how Source sees it, and learn why this is a non-negotiable inside your manifesting toolkit.The Intuitive Advantage Waitlist (Intuition Training)Free webinar replay libraryInstagram: @melissaburkhart_Website: www.melissaburkhart.com
When Maria Bertrand rescued a day-old sparrow during one of the darkest periods of her life, she never imagined it would lead to a worldwide documentary, a children's book, and a profound reawakening to the intelligence and healing power of animals. In this heartfelt conversation, Darin Olien sits down with filmmaker, storyteller, and animal advocate Maria Bertrand to explore the extraordinary relationship she formed with Happy—a tiny sparrow deemed "unreleasable" after a beak injury. Together they discuss grief, purpose, interspecies communication, animal consciousness, indigenous wisdom, and why reconnecting with nature may be one of the most important steps humanity can take. This conversation is a reminder that healing often arrives in the smallest, most unexpected forms. What You'll Learn How rescuing a tiny sparrow transformed Maria's life during profound grief Why purpose often emerges through serving something greater than yourself The fascinating science behind animal consciousness and sentience How humans have become disconnected from nature—and how to reconnect Why animals communicate far more than most people realize The healing power of empathy, curiosity, and deep observation Lessons indigenous cultures understood that modern society has forgotten Behind the scenes of Maria's documentary Finding Happy How storytelling can inspire compassion and meaningful change Why the smallest moments often carry life's greatest lessons Chapters 00:00 Welcome to Super Life 00:00:32 Sponsor: Supporting Healthy Aging with Tru Niagen 00:02:36 Introducing Maria Bertrand and the Story of Happy 00:04:02 Reconnecting After Years Apart 00:05:17 How Heartbreak Led to an Extraordinary Miracle 00:07:22 Maria's Childhood Connection to Nature 00:10:23 Finding Purpose Through Storytelling 00:11:38 Losing Everything During the Pandemic 00:14:06 Discovering a Day-Old Baby Sparrow 00:16:15 How Caring for Happy Pulled Maria Out of Grief 00:19:49 The Decision to Surrender Happy to Wildlife Rehabilitation 00:21:21 Learning Happy Would Be Euthanized 00:22:21 Living With Happy's Beak Injury 00:23:01 Animal Consciousness and the Legacy of René Descartes 00:25:06 The Cambridge Declaration on Animal Consciousness 00:26:15 Sponsor: Reducing Plastic Waste with Bite 00:27:57 Science Finally Begins Catching Up 00:28:58 What Makes Happy Different From Other Birds? 00:30:02 Building a Shared Language Between Human and Sparrow 00:31:30 Learning to Listen to Nature Again 00:34:00 Tuning Into Frequencies We Normally Ignore 00:35:35 Why Modern Humans Have Forgotten How to Listen 00:39:14 Every Species Deserves Our Compassion 00:41:05 Rediscovering Our Connection to the Living World 00:43:12 How Happy Changed Maria Forever 00:46:08 Messages From Around the World 00:48:11 The Language of Animal Communication 00:50:35 Scientists Studying Animal Sentience 00:52:09 What We Learn by Truly Observing Animals 00:54:03 Happy Makes a Surprise Appearance 00:55:14 Humanity's Lost Relationship With Nature 00:57:14 How Science Once Dismissed Animal Intelligence 00:58:37 Turning Happy's Story Into a Feature Documentary 01:01:06 Filming With Elephants in Thailand 01:02:48 Stories of Compassion From Around the World 01:05:37 Releasing Finding Happy Worldwide 01:07:02 A Day in the Life With Happy 01:10:04 Why Connection Is the Film's Greatest Message 01:12:30 Helping Children Preserve Their Wonder 01:14:33 Final Reflections and Closing Thoughts Thank You to Our Sponsors Tru Niagen: Go to www.truniagen.com and use code DARINOLIEN20 at checkout for 20% off Fatty15: Get an additional 15% off their 90-day subscription Starter Kit by going to fatty15.com/DARIN and using code DARIN at checkout.

Your desire isn't broken; your nervous system is just doing its job too well. In this episode, pelvic floor PT and sex counselor Dr. Rose joins us to break down why trauma, stress, and hypervigilance can quietly tank your libido and what to actually do about it. We cover the "smoke detector" model of nervous system regulation, why desire discrepancy is normal (80% of couples deal with it), the four desire styles, and quick neuroscience-backed exercises that can shift you from a 2/10 to a 6/10 "open to intimacy" in minutes.

What if the biggest breakthroughs in mental health have nothing to do with chemicals—and everything to do with electricity? In this fascinating conversation, Darin sits down with psychophysiology and brain mapping specialist Rebecca Bassam to explore the electrical nature of the human brain. After surviving multiple traumatic brain injuries herself, Rebecca dedicated her life to understanding how brainwave patterns influence everything from ADHD and anxiety to depression, PTSD, focus, emotional regulation, and peak performance.
