The long awaited inquiry into the treatment of a young woman with severe disabilities has published its final report. The Farrelly Commission of investigation found insufficient evidence to support claims of sexual, physical and emotional abuse of this woman, known as Grace, during her time in foster care. However it did find neglect of grace in relation to her personal and dental hygiene. The eight year investigation brings the issue of adult safeguarding into the spotlight once again.

We'll contrast traditional yoga's focus on enlightenment with somatic yoga's emphasis on healing and grounding. We'll analyze how Catholicism and Tantra might be viewed as more embodied spiritual practices, compared to Protestantism and The 8 Limbs of yoga. Let's nerd out on the significance of engaging the five senses in the healing process, the need for safe spaces in somatic practices, and the future potential of somatic work in personal healing and coaching.

The Evolve Your Wedding Business Podcast: Marketing For Your Wedding Business | Online Business

Are you making it harder than it needs to be for couples to book you?If your wedding inquiry process is just a contact form and a “let's hop on a call” reply, you might be pushing great clients away without even realizing it. I recently experienced this myself while looking for a new bookkeeper. I was ready to hire someone, but the process I was met with- no pricing, no service info, and just endless requests to schedule calls- left me overwhelmed and frustrated. It reminded me exactly of what engaged couples face when they inquire with multiple wedding vendors.In this episode, we're diving into what your wedding inquiry process might be missing and how you can make it easier for potential clients to say yes. I'll walk you through what I wish had been available to me, and how you can apply those same lessons to create a more effective, conversion-focused experience for your own leads.If you've ever wondered why inquiries ghost you or why you're not getting bookings from people who seemed interested, this episode will show you how to fix it.Tune in now to find out if your wedding inquiry process is helping or hurting your bookings.Shownotes: https://evolveyourweddingbusiness.com/307***Tired of random marketing and unpredictable bookings? You're not alone—most wedding pros fall into the trap of random acts of marketing that don't actually lead to more bookings. It doesn't have to be this way.

While the long-term effects remain unclear, the order has already frozen vital programs relied on by millions of people globally, forced the closure of USAID's overseas offices, and jeopardised thousands of jobs.As one of the world's largest foreign aid providers, the US plays an essential role with no other country or organisation fully able to fill the gap.

Abby, Patrick, and Dan reflect on the hit show from the perspectives of political economy and libidinal economy, from Adam Smith to Adam Scott to Karl Marx to Mark S and beyond (with plenty of Freud and workplace war stories along the way). What ensues is less about answering plot mysteries (although spoilers abound) than it is about exploring how the show poses questions about repression, the division of labor, alienation, and more. What does working do to us as individuals, as co-workers, and as political subjects? How do our workplaces and their rituals channel our desires and our anxieties, shape our personas, and even divvy up our basic experiences of space and time? What are the psychic wages of maintaining “work-life balance” and what interventions – technological, chemical, and ideological – do we rely on to “make it work”? Does living under capitalism mean that we have always already been severed, and what should we expect about the limits, and the possibilities, of prestige television when it comes to representing the paradoxes and foreclosures of capitalism itself? Selected texts cited:Karl Marx, Economic and Philosophical Manuscripts of 1844, available at: https://www.marxists.org/archive/marx/works/1844/manuscripts/preface.htmAdam Smith, An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations, available at: https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/3300Sven Beckert and Seth Rockman (editors), Slavery's Capitalism: A New History of American Economic Development: https://www.pennpress.org/9780812224177/slaverys-capitalism/ Have you noticed that Freud is back?

I think there is a responsibility we have as artists to relate to our artistry responsibly. And that has to do with sensing into our artistic sensibility as a medicine or a gift that we were given to come into this embodiment, to become the people that we are and share this medicine with the people in our community around us. And I think it's about asking the question, what is a medicine that I can bring? Not from a place of heroism, not from a place of saviorism, but from a place of genuinely, honestly inquiring, asking what is the medicine needed right now that my art can bring? And sitting with that question without needing to answer that question. So sitting with that question as a question that opens up more questions, as opposed to creating a product, that will be the answer for it.My conversation with Azul Carolina Duque, artist, researcher and member of the Gesturing Towards Decolonial Futures (GTDF) collective. This episode is 15-minute condensation of a much longer conversation recorded on September 16, 2024 in Victoria, British Columbia, the traditional territories of the Lekwungen-speaking peoples, specifically the Songhees and Esquimalt (Xʷsepsəm) Nations, and the W̱SÁNEĆ peoples. The complete conversation includes a conversation about  a new book by Vanessa Andreotti, Outgrowing Modernity: Navigating Complexity, Complicity and Collapse With Accountability and Compassion, that I'll publish as a separate episode. This episode is focused on Azul's research Reactivating Exiled Capacities project. You'll also hear excerpts from a soundwalk Azul and I took in Beacon Hill Park, Victoria. Azul began with a powerful land acknowledgement.Suggested action pointsSense into your artistic sensibility as a medicine, or a gift, and share itSit with the question: what is the medicine needed right now that my art can bring?Explore simplicity and subtlety to bring depth to your artistic practiceHow to relate to the dream world with more reverence and humility and what does that have to teach us that can be important for these times of collapse?How is our relationship with sound, listening, our own voice and with vibration important to cultivate as we experience accelerating levels of grief, despair and pain?Episode notes generated by Whisper Transcribe AIStory PreviewImagine a world where art heals not just the soul, but also the deep-seated wounds of colonialism embedded within our very beings. Artist and researcher Azul Carolina Duque guides us on a journey of sound, reflection, and decolonization, inviting us to consider how art can reactivate lost capacities and foster a more accountable future.Chapter Summary00:00 The Artist's Responsibility01:20 Introducing Azul Carolina Duque02:02 Land Acknowledgment and Connection04:25 Sitting with Reality05:06 Art and Culture in Crisis06:44 Understanding Colonialism as a Disease08:18 Reactivating Exiled Capacities10:35 The Inquiry of Reactivation12:09 Cultivating Service and HumilityFeatured QuotesThere is a responsibility we have as artists to relate to our artistry responsibly… to share this medicine with the people in our community around us.How can we expand our capacity to sit with the reality of things, to sit with… the good, the bad, the ugly, and the messed up, in order to respond from a place of more sobriety, maturity, more discernment and accountability?I was raised to be arrogant, and I still am in so many ways that I can't even see, and some others that I hopefully can see.Behind the StoryThis episode captures a segment of a conversation with Azul Carolina Duque, focusing on her Reactivating Exiled Capacities research. Azul's work with the Gesturing Towards Decolonial Futures collective explores how colonialism manifests at a molecular level, impacting our nervous systems and relationships. Through artistic exercises and somatic practices, she seeks to “neuro-decolonize” our bodies and reclaim capacities essential for navigating complex times.Please see the transcript of this episode for hyperlinks of cited publications and organizations.

Top Credit Report Myths with Neile Simon

What do Bigfoot and credit reports have in common? They're each the subject of many myths.We don't know much about 8-foot furry creatures, but we can dispel some of the folklore about credit and credit reports. Neile Simon is here to help us do that today.Neile Simon is a Certified Credit Counselor with Christian Credit Counselors (CCC), an underwriter of Faith & Finance.If you've ever wondered whether closing a credit card boosts your score or if credit counseling hurts your credit, you're not alone. Let's dive into these common misconceptions and separate fact from fiction.Myth #1: Paying Off Debt Instantly Improves Your Credit ScoreIt's a common belief that paying down debt will immediately result in a perfect credit score. However, credit improvement takes time because credit scores are based on your payment history.Reality: Your credit report gives lenders a snapshot of how responsibly you've managed debt over time. Consistently paying bills on time is the best way to build and maintain a strong score—but it won't happen overnight.Tip: Be cautious of anyone claiming they can “fix” your credit instantly. No legitimate company can erase negative (but accurate) information from your credit history overnight.Myth #2: Credit Counseling Destroys Your Credit ScoreMany people worry that seeking credit counseling will harm their credit score.Reality: Enrolling in a credit counseling program is a neutral mark on your credit report and does not directly affect your score. Closing accounts impacts your score, so working with an accredited nonprofit organization is essential to develop a plan that keeps your credit intact. That's why Christian Credit Counselors is the only organization we recommend for credit counseling and debt management. Tip: Avoid paying for expensive credit monitoring or identity protection services. You can monitor your credit for free through reputable sources.Myth #3: Canceling Credit Cards Boosts Your ScoreMany people believe that closing old or unused credit cards is a responsible move, but it can actually hurt their credit scores.Reality: Lenders want to see two or three active credit lines. Closing credit cards reduces your available credit, which can negatively impact your score by increasing your credit utilization ratio (the percentage of available credit you're using).Tip: Keep zero-balance accounts open unless they charge an annual fee. If you must close an account, do so gradually—perhaps one every six months—to minimize the temporary impact on your score.Myth #4: Too Many Inquiries Hurt Your ScoreWhile excessive hard inquiries (when lenders check your credit for a loan or credit card application) can lower your score, not all inquiries count against you.Reality: Credit bureaus recognize rate shopping—for example, when you're comparing mortgage or auto loan rates. If you make multiple inquiries within a 45-day window, they count as one single inquiry, not multiple.Tip: Always shop around for the best loan terms without worrying about multiple hits to your credit score.Myth #5: Checking Your Own Credit Report Hurts Your ScoreMany consumers avoid checking their credit reports because they fear it will negatively impact their scores.Reality: Checking your own credit is a "soft inquiry" and does not affect your score. Only "hard inquiries" (such as applying for a loan or credit card) can impact your score.Tip: Review your credit report every 6–12 months to catch errors or fraud early. Get a free report from AnnualCreditReport.com, the only official site for free credit reports.Myth #6: Credit Scores Are Locked In for Six MonthsSome believe their credit score is only updated periodically, leading to confusion when making financial decisions.Reality: Your credit score is dynamic, meaning it updates as new information is reported—not every six months. Changes in balances, payments, and account activity can impact your score as soon as they are reported by creditors.Tip: If you're working on improving your score, be patient and consistent—your efforts will show over time.Myth #7: If I Pay My Bills on Time, I Don't Need to Check My Credit ReportIt seems logical that paying your bills on time means your credit report is in good shape. But that's not always the case.Reality: 80% of credit reports contain errors. Mistakes like incorrect account information or fraudulent activity can damage your score even if you've never missed a payment.Tip: Check your credit report at least once a year to identify errors and dispute inaccuracies before they hurt your financial standing.Myth #8: All Credit Reports Are the SameMany people assume that if they check one credit report, they've seen them all.Reality: There are three major credit bureaus—Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion—and they all calculate scores differently. Some lenders may pull from only one bureau, while others check all three.Tip: Review reports from all three bureaus to get a complete picture of your credit history and spot discrepancies.Myth #9: A Divorce Decree Automatically Removes You from Joint AccountsDivorce proceedings often divide assets and debts, but that does not automatically separate joint accounts.Reality: If you and your former spouse share a loan or credit account, both of you remain responsible for the debt—even if a court assigns the balance to one person.Tip: To protect yourself, close joint accounts or refinance loans to remove your ex-spouse's name. Simply relying on a court order won't protect your credit.Myth #10: Bad Marks Automatically Disappear After Seven YearsMany assume that negative information automatically falls off their report after seven years, but it's more complicated than that.Reality: Some items, like Chapter 7 bankruptcies, remain on your report for 10 years, while Chapter 13 bankruptcies stay for seven years. Paid-off accounts in good standing can remain for 10 years, which benefits your credit history.Tip: If you have negative marks on your report, focus on building positive credit habits to minimize their impact over time.Myth #11: I Can Pay Someone to “Fix” My CreditCredit repair companies often promise quick fixes, but many of their claims are misleading.Reality: No company can legally remove accurate negative information from your credit report. If a debt is legitimately yours, it will stay on your report until its expiration date.Tip: You can dispute errors yourself for free. Christian Credit Counselors provides free resources and sample dispute letters to help you correct inaccuracies.The Truth About Credit ReportsUnderstanding your credit report and score is essential for financial success. By debunking these myths, you can take control of your credit and make informed financial decisions.Check your credit report regularly for errorsKeep credit card accounts open to maintain a strong scoreShop around for loans without worrying about multiple inquiriesWork with trusted advisors, not credit repair scamsIf you're struggling with credit card debt, Christian Credit Counselors can help.

A little past midnight on July 30, 1945, the USS Indianapolis, a US Navy cruiser, had just delivered the uranium that would be used in the first nuclear bomb dropped on Japan, and was returning to the Philippines when it was struck by a Japanese torpedo. The ship was badly damaged in the attack and within ten minutes it rolled onto its side, dumping 890 crewmen into the pitch-black ocean and dragging the remaining 300 down with the ship.Those who survived the torpedo strike did what they could to grab supplies before abandoning ship, but there were very few life boats or life jackets, so many of the sailors had to float in the water or cling to the few rafts they did manage to take before jumping from the boat. To make matters worse, their mission had been highly confidential and no one in the Navy knew where the Indianapolis was, much less that it had sank. The surviving crew thought things were about as bad as they could get, then the sharks began showing up.Thank you to the Incredible Dave White of Bring Me the Axe Podcast for research and Writing support!ReferencesAssociated Press. 1945.
