Episode summary Computer-science-turned-cognitive-science researcher and yoga therapist Chen Or Bach joins Amy to share a candid journey from academia to cancer survivorship, from mat-based practice to living yoga moment-to-moment. We trace how the pañca-kośa model reframed her healing, why standards and accreditation helped yoga integrate into Israeli healthcare, and what it means to let go of familiar tools and still remain fully in the path. It's a forward-looking conversation about bringing steadiness (sthira) and sweetness (sukha) into real life—mountain trails, laundry folding, and all.Listen forNature as practice: Boulder's mountains as living teachers of stability in change.Pañca-kośa in plain life: tending annamaya, prāṇamaya, manomaya, vijñānamaya, and especially ānandamaya—not as theory but daily design.When the practice stops “working”: giving yourself permission to let go of certain tools (āsana, set routines) and allow yoga to become how you meet each moment.Healthcare integration: how Israel's modular 1,000-hour training (500 teacher + 500 therapy with specialty tracks) supported hospital uptake.Karma yoga without burnout: serving the field while protecting one's vitality (tapas with svādhyāya and īśvara-praṇidhāna—Kriyā Yoga in action).Key takeawaysĀnanda is not optional. Many of us optimize the outer layers (food, steps) and starve ānandamaya kośa. Intentionally design joy-creating activities; the outer layers flourish downstream.Your practice can change shape. If a tool stops serving, it's not failure—it's viveka (discernment). Let the aim (clarity, compassion, steadiness) stay constant while methods evolve.Standards serve people. Thoughtful accreditation isn't bureaucracy—it's ahimsā and satya for clients and health systems: clear scope, reliable skills, safer care.Karma yoga needs boundaries. Service without self-regulation fuels burnout. Pair tapas with rest, supervision, and community—abhyāsa with vairāgya.Practical micro-practices (try today)Joy audit (5 min): List three ordinary tasks. For each, name one sensory element you can savor (temperature of water while washing dishes, sound of leaves on a walk).Kośa check-in (2 min): Ask: What does my body/energy/mind/wisdom/joy need right now? Choose one small step.Walk as yoga (10–20 min): No metrics. Attend to breath cadence, ground contact, and horizon/sky—let attention, breath, and body cohere.Resources mentionedPātañjala Yoga Sūtra (as study companion during illness)Bhagavadgītā (as a source of resilience and meaning)IAYT-inspired standards and Israel's modular specialty pathways (trauma, oncology, etc.)About our guest — Chen Or Bach Chen Or Bach blends cognitive/neuroscience training with decades of yoga practice and service. In Israel, she helped advance standards that enabled yoga and yoga therapy to integrate into mainstream healthcare, including rehabilitation settings (e.g., TBI). Now based in Boulder, she continues to teach, mentor, and model a life where all life is yoga.Pull quotes“Once your attention, breath, and body are in the same place, the game changes.”“If one tool stops serving you, the tradition still has a thousand doors.”“I stopped ‘doing' yoga and started being it—moment by moment.”“Standards aren't red tape; they're how we protect people.”School of Integrative Health at NDMU: https://www.ndm.edu/academics/integrative-healthMaster of Science in Yoga Therapy at NDMU https://www.ndm.edu/academics/integrative-health/yoga-therapy Explore NDMU's Post-Master's Certificate in Therapeutic Yoga Practices, designed specifically for licensed healthcare professionals. https://www.ndm.edu/academics/integrative-health/yoga-therapy/post-masters-certificate-in-therapeutic-yoga-practices Try our Post-Bac Ayurveda Certification Program at NDMU: https://www.ndm.edu/academics/integrative-health/ayurveda/post-baccalaureate-ayurveda-certification#IntegrativeHealth #HealthcareEducation #InterprofessionalEducation #GraduateSchool #NDMUproud #SOIHproud #SOIHYoga #SOIHAyurveda #NDMUYoga #NDMUAyurveda #SOIHGraduateSchool

If you've ever wondered why some leaders instantly connect and inspire while others struggle to be heard, this episode breaks it down. Dr. Danny Brassell shares how storytelling becomes a leadership requirement and a growth engine that converts audiences into clients. Danny's path includes pivots from journalism to teaching to speaking, a painful financial loss that reshaped his worldview, and a repeatable framework for building talks that drive real results. You'll also hear why vulnerability builds trust, why reading is a competitive advantage in a distracted world, and how to move from applause to measurable ROI. What you'll learn Why storytelling isn't optional for leaders—it's the bridge to trust, influence, and action. How to turn failure into connection (and why audiences relate more to your losses than your wins). The difference between good presenters (who tell stories) and excellent presenters (who tell stories with intention). A practical method for building a personal "story bank" you can pull from anytime. How to design talks that move the needle, not just "get applause." Danny's 5Cs framework for building talks that convert. Why deep reading is a competitive advantage—and how to use your phone to support learning instead of draining attention. How to manage stage fright by naming it and turning discomfort into connection. A simple weekly habit system that creates momentum across your life (Danny's "7 F's"). Key Topics & Timestamps 00:01 – Intro: why storytelling is a leadership requirement 02:18 – Danny's "Pivots" story: journalism → teaching → speaking 05:13 – Shame, vulnerability, and telling the "messy" parts 06:35 – The 2005 real estate seminar scam: losing everything and what it taught him 11:05 – The "story bank" exercise: triggers → themes → intentional stories 14:59 – Relatable stories vs. impressive stories (Everest vs. first grade) 16:25 – Speaking as the fastest way to grow a business (applause vs. next steps) 21:05 – The 5Cs framework: Clarity, Connect, Content, Call to Action, Close 26:57 – Stage fright: embrace the weakness, say it out loud, keep going 35:57 – Reading as competitive advantage + how leaders train attention 48:44 – Misfits, unconventional thinkers, and what school often misses 57:06 – Pre-week planning + Danny's "7 F's" goal categories 1:09:38 – "Intentionally curious" + building a life around better questions 1:10:09 – Free resource: Danny's Story Blueprint + the power of one clear CTA 1:11:52 – Closing: "Stay curious." Danny's Most Actionable Frameworks 1) The "Story Bank" Exercise (Danny's process) Write down story triggers for 60 minutes (hundreds of quick moments). For each, label the message: perseverance, loyalty, awareness, humility, etc. Use stories by intention—to generate a specific emotion and outcome. 2) Applause vs. ROI Danny's measurement of speaking success: How many people took the next step? Examples of "next steps": Subscribe / follow / opt-in (unpaid) Book a consult / buy a product / join a program (paid) 3) The 5Cs Process (Danny's talk-building blueprint) Clarity: Who is the audience? What problem do you solve? Connect: In the first 5 minutes, "RAP" Relatable (I'm like you) Authority (I solved it) Purpose (I'm here to help you) Content: Teach meaningfully (serve the audience) Call to Action: One clear next step Close: Emotional finish people remember 4) Audience Motivation (Income / Freedom / Impact) "20-year-olds" → income "40-year-olds" → freedom "60-year-olds" → impact Notable Moments & Soundbites "Good presenters tell stories. Excellent presenters tell stories with intention." "We want to move hearts—but we also want to move the needle." "The first five minutes are everything." "You don't need artificial intelligence—you need authentic intelligence." "You no longer have to know the answer. It's more important to ask the right question." "Stay curious."

This is what he wrote 10 years ago: 'Chris intentionally flips out in the psych ward to get put into a 5 point restraint... and receive an injection of Ativan and Haldol. Also, he is treated by Bob Forrest and Dr. Drew.' First though Chris makes fun of my fish tank. We had such a good time. I cooked brusell sprouts and so much more! such a good time!

Democrats have one strategy: cheat.Without cheating, the Democratic Party dies. Frankly, that needs to happen. When you consider all that they have done to hurt this country, they deserve one fate. At least back in the old days, one could argue that while their ideas were stupid, they weren't trying to hurt the country INTENTIONALLY.Today, that is no longer the case. I do have some funny things that have come from their activities. How great is this, a radicalized leftists tried to block the entrance of a federal building with huge pickup truck. So the federal agents arrested him and drove his truck away like a trophy.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
https://teachhoops.com/ Developing a leader is a deliberate process that goes far beyond simply naming a team captain at the start of the season. True leadership development requires a coach to create "leadership laboratories" within daily practices where players are given the autonomy to make decisions and hold their teammates accountable. Instead of the coach being the only voice during a defensive breakdown or a transition drill, intentional development involves stepping back and allowing a designated player to huddle the group and solve the problem. By providing this space, you allow potential leaders to find their voice and learn how to navigate the social dynamics of the locker room under your guidance rather than your control. A vital component of this growth is the "Coach-to-Leader" feedback loop. Leadership is a skill that must be coached just as rigorously as a jump shot or a defensive slide. This means having regular, one-on-one check-ins with your identified leaders to discuss team morale, chemistry, and their personal influence. During these sessions, provide specific feedback on their body language and how they communicate during moments of adversity. Teaching a player how to deliver a "hard truth" to a friend while maintaining a positive relationship is the pinnacle of leadership coaching. When a player understands that leadership is about service and elevating others rather than status, the entire culture of the program shifts toward a player-led standard. Finally, you must empower your leaders by giving them actual ownership over certain aspects of the program. This could range from leading the pre-game warm-up and choosing the music to having a seat at the table when discussing team rules or off-court activities. When players feel they have a stake in the "business" of the team, they are more likely to defend the culture when the coach isn't looking. Leadership development in January and February is what prevents a season from sliding sideways; it ensures that when the pressure of the post-season arrives, you have a "coach on the floor" who can steady the ship and drive the team toward its collective goals.

McKay delves into the power to be found in shifting our perspective from suspicion to grace. He notes that, by choosing to believe the best in others, we bridge the social gaps that often leave us feeling isolated or misunderstood.Moving beyond the "Liking Gap," where we underestimate how much others value us, this episode examines how "positive attribution bias" can revolutionize leadership and personal resilience. McKay shares compelling accounts - from Satya Nadella's cultural shift at Microsoft to a principal uncovering the hidden struggles of a defiant student - to prove that understanding often lies just beneath the surface of a mistake. He also recounts the importance of self-belief through the lens of Miss USA Rachel Smith's recovery from a public fall and the mental fortitude of Olympic marathoners. Ultimately, our host challenges us to "lighten up" and replace judgment with curiosity, showing that giving the benefit of the doubt is not just a gift to others, but a pathway to our own peace.Main Themes:We are generally more liked and respected than our anxieties suggest.Intentionally assuming good intent reduces stress and fosters collaboration.Leadership improves when we prioritize understanding the "why" behind missed goals.Disruptive behavior often dissolves once a person's underlying struggles are seen.A strong internal belief window carries us through public failures and misfortunes.Reducing self-criticism and catastrophizing opens doors for new opportunities.Asking "I wonder what their day was like?" creates a buffer for compassion.Top 10 Quotes:"People give us the benefit of the doubt more often than not.""When you assume the best, people give you their best.""If we had judged him by the missed deadline alone, we would have punished the guy who saved us.""People rise to the story they think you believe about them.""Suspicion invites bitterness; generosity invites peace.""Once a student feels understood, disruptive behaviors often dissolve.""Giving the benefit of the doubt often means giving away your doubts.""All things are possible to him that believeth.""The belief you hold will be the ground in which seeds of hope grow in times of uncertainty.""Giving the benefit of the doubt turns tension into understanding, turns suspicion into connection, and turns judgment into grace."Show Links:Open Your Eyes with McKay Christensen
As a graduate student at MIT, Steve Ramirez successfully created false memories in the lab. Now, as a neuroscientist working at the frontiers of brain science, he foresees a future where we can replace our negative memories with positive ones. In How to Change a Memory, Ramirez draws on his own memories--of friendship, family, loss, and recovery--to reveal how memory can be turned on and off like a switch, edited, and even constructed from nothing. A future in which we can change our memories of the past may seem improbable, but in fact, the everyday act of remembering is one of transformation. Intentionally editing memory to improve our lives takes advantage of the brain's natural capacity for change. In How to Change a Memory: One Neuroscientist's Quest to Alter the Past (Princeton UP, 2025), Ramirez explores how scientists discovered that memories are fluid--they change over time, can be erased, reactivated, and even falsely implanted in the lab. Reflecting on his own path as a scientist, he examines how memory manipulation shapes our imagination and sense of self. If we can erase a deeply traumatic memory, would it change who we are? And what would that change mean anyway? Throughout, Ramirez carefully considers the ethics of artificially controlling memory, exploring how we might use this tool responsibly--for both personal healing and the greater good. A masterful blend of memoir and cutting-edge science, How to Change a Memory explores how neuroscience has reached a critical juncture, where scientists can see the potential of memory manipulation to help people suffering from the debilitating effects of PTSD, anxiety, Alzheimer's, addiction, and a host of other neurological and behavioral disorders. Steve Ramirez has been featured on CNN, NPR, and the BBC and in leading publications such as The New York Times, National Geographic, Wired, Forbes, The Guardian, The Economist, and Nature. An award-winning neuroscientist who has given TED talks on his groundbreaking work on memory manipulation, he is associate professor of psychological and brain sciences at Boston University.

Welcome back to Girl, Take the Lead! — the podcast where we reimagine leadership, challenge the status quo around aging, and share the conversations that help us break cycles, find our voice, and lead our lives with intention.Money is one of the most powerful — and most misunderstood — tools in our lives.And for many women, it's also one of the most stressful.In today's episode, we slow the conversation down and take the fear out of finances — replacing it with clarity, confidence, and choice.Our guest, Tiffany Irving, is a Senior Vice President and Wealth Advisor at Mesirow Wealth Management with more than 25 years of experience working with high-net-worth individuals, families, and nonprofit organizations. She's also a proud mom of three and a fierce advocate for educating and empowering women and girls around money.Tiffany's journey into finance was shaped early — growing up with a single mom, watching financial stress up close, and quietly deciding that independence and stability would matter deeply in her own life. That lived experience now fuels her passion for helping women understand money not as something to fear — but as a tool to support the lives they want to build.In this grounded and empowering conversation, Yo and Tiffany explore what it really means to build financial confidence — intentionally.✨ In This Episode, We Explore:✨ From Silence to Strategy✨ Money as a Tool, Not a Test✨ Financial Confidence Across Generations✨ Partnership and the Money Conversation✨ The Myth of “I'm Not Wealthy Enough”✨ Why Written Plans Matter✨ Choosing an Advisor (and Asking the Right Questions)✨ What She'd Tell Her 20-Something Self

A Trump-backed prosecutor quietly opened an investigation into Federal Reserve chairman Jerome Powell in an attempt to pressure him into quitting. This move has the potential to destroy the economy as we know it, as economists and other global experts have insisted that any attack on the Fed's independence would completely destroy faith in the US economy both home and abroad, sending our currency into a tailspin and putting a halt on investments into the US. In an interview with The New York Times published this week, Donald Trump came out AGAINST the Civil Rights Act because, as he falsely claimed, it led to white people being treated "very badly." That never happened anywhere in the United States, and there was never any coordinated, state-sponsored "bad treatment" of white people. But Trump knows that he's in trouble with his base, so he's leaning back into the racism that made him their favorite candidate to begin with. The White House is furious over Kristi Noem's actions and they are now panicking because they fear she's ruined everything they've been working towards (which is to get rid of as many non-white people as they can.) Their racist agenda has been derailed over the killing of Renee Good and Noem's response to the shooting. Thousands of people took to the streets to protest ICE over the weekend, and that's not what the administration wanted to happen as they were already struggling to get the public on their side on the issue of immigration. Republican Senator Ted Cruz held a Senate hearing last week on a proposal he has to "hold rogue judges accountable." But Cruz, like many Republicans, didn't think about the future when he came up with his proposal, and analysts pointed out quickly that Democrats could use the same procedure to impeach Trump-appointed judge Aileen Cannon. No judge has made it more obvious that she doesn't care about the rule of law more than Cannon herself, and Cruz's proposal could be exactly what Democrats need to remove her for good.The German government came out and condemned completely false statements made recently by Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. The country was forced to remind people of the truth after Kennedy falsely claimed that German doctors were prosecuted for not administering Covid vaccines. The truth is that doctors were free to either give the vaccine or choose not to do so, and not a single person was punished for their decision. But Kennedy lies with impunity because that's all he can do to back up his quack claims.

Sean Barnes breaks down one of the most common career myths: that hard work alone guarantees advancement. Spoiler alert: it doesn't. Sean walks through why so many high performers stall out at the manager or director level, how the Peter Principle quietly derails careers, and what it really takes to move from individual contributor to executive leader. This episode is a must-watch for professionals who feel stuck despite working harder than everyone around them. Podcast Show Notes – Episode 264 | 01.13.2025 Episode Title: Why Hard Work Alone Won't Get You Promoted Key Moments 00:00 – Why “do the work” isn't the whole story 00:29 – The corporate pyramid and the hustle mindset 01:06 – Why hard workers still get stuck 01:33 – Skill gaps that prevent upward movement 02:06 – The Peter Principle explained 02:31 – When titles outpace leadership capability 03:32 – Step 1: Observe leaders above you 04:16 – Executive communication vs task-level thinking 04:46 – Confidence vs competence in leadership 05:45 – Step 2: Intentionally develop new skills 06:20 – Why proximity to excellence matters 06:56 – Step 3: Apply, test, and refine 07:25 – Becoming a force multiplier 07:57 – The real path to meaningful career progression Key Takeaways Hard work alone won't move you up. Advancement happens when you develop the skills required at the next level, not just when you work harder at your current one. Observe how leaders above you actually operate. Pay attention to how executives think, communicate, and influence, not just what they tell you to do. Leadership is learned through observation as much as instruction. Career growth shifts from output to impact. As you level up, success is no longer about individual contribution. It's about becoming a force multiplier who elevates the people and outcomes around you.

On Day 12 of the fast, Pastor Azizah Morrison encourages listeners to remain engaged and intentional as the journey deepens. Rooted in James 4:8, this teaching reminds believers that closeness with God is not accidental, but responds to deliberate pursuit. This session addresses the natural tension that can arise mid-fast and calls listeners to resist drifting by choosing nearness with purpose. The teaching concludes with a full, faith-filled prayer, inviting renewed intention, deeper awareness of God's presence, and continued alignment as the fast continues.

In this episode of Joy Loving Home's five-part runway series to 2026, Joy shares an "intentionally flexible" planning approach that fits changing days and different brains.

Practical tips include using pencil to allow for changes, logging completed tasks for daily wins, tracking small habits as data, and using alarms or digital reminders when helpful.

CONSTANTINOPLE AS HELM'S DEEP AND THE LATIN-GREEK SCHISM Colleagues Gaius and Germanicus, Friends of History Debating Society, Londinium, 91 AD. The final segment eulogizes Constantinople as a "perfect," intentionally designed city that served as "Helm's Deep" for Western civilization, preserving law, credit, and military organization when the rest of the West was atomized. The speakers detail the tragic sack of the city in 1204 by Latin Crusaders, describing it as a betrayal driven by the enduring envy and "bipolar tension" between the Latin West and the Greek East. This event stripped the city of its "divine" status and gold, ending its role as a sanctuary. They conclude by linking this ancient schism to the modern world, positing that the current geopolitical conflict between the US (the inheritor of the Latin West) and Russia (centered in Moscow, the successor to the Greek East) is a continuation of this unresolved cultural and religious struggle.

This episode explores why the way you end the year has a direct impact on how you perform, lead, and grow in the year ahead, especially if you are a high performing founder, executive, or consultant who wants sustainable success without burnout.For years, I used to close the year by moving straight into planning mode. I refined goals, adjusted priorities, and prepared the roadmap for the year ahead, but I rarely took the time to consciously finish the year I had just lived. Everything looked successful externally, yet internally the cycle still felt incomplete.In this episode, I share a leadership reflection practice I call The Finish Line. It is a year end integration process that helps you:• reflect on the past year with clarity and intention• release unfinished emotional and cognitive weight• prevent burnout from carrying into the next year• align your priorities before setting new goals• strengthen your leadership presence and resilience• transition into the new year feeling grounded and focusedWe explore the hidden cost of rushing from one year into the next, why many high performers skip the last mile of the year, and how intentional reflection supports wiser decision making, healthier pacing, and more sustainable growth.You will also hear the 3 step Finish Line process I use with my clients to complete the year consciously so that the next one begins with alignment, clarity, and renewed energy.If you are looking for a leadership approach that blends performance, meaning, emotional awareness, and reflective growth, this conversation will help you start the year stronger, without repeating patterns of over extension or pressure driven planning.

In South Dakota, distance running rarely comes with a spotlight.Mikah Peters earned one anyway.The Brandon Valley senior spent years quietly building belief, never assuming he'd be the best guy on his own team, let alone a national contender. Progress came slowly. Intentionally. Through seasons of patience and an offseason obsession with getting better.In November, that belief finally crystallized. Peters won the SDHSAA Class AA State Championship in 14:54, breaking Simeon Birnbaum's long-standing state meet record.The season didn't stop there. After falling from glory at NXR Heartland, Mikah earned the Golden Ticket and lined up at the inaugural Brooks Cross Country Nationals in Balboa Park. Against the deepest field of the year, he raced with composure and control, finishing 20th overall to earn All-American honors on the sport's biggest stage.The performances mean more in context. One year earlier, Peters passed out while leading the state meet, battling illness and extreme heat. The season ended abruptly. That moment lingered. It reshaped how he thought about trust, execution, and what championship racing actually demands.As Mikah said: "The desert teaches you more about water than the ocean ever will."If you enjoy the podcast, please consider following The Sunday Shakeout on Spotify and Apple Podcasts and leaving a five-star review.

Government Shutdown Context The shutdown lasted over 40 days, beginning October 1 and ending after a Senate vote (60–40) and subsequent House approval. A stopgap funding measure was passed to keep the government operating until January 30, while negotiations for a long-term appropriations bill continue. Political Narrative Democrats are responsible for the shutdown, accusing them of: Blocking votes to fund programs like SNAP (food stamps). Intentionally prolonging the shutdown to harm Americans and blame Trump. Republicans are portrayed as consistently voting for “clean” funding extensions. Impact of Shutdown Economic and social harm cited: Missed paychecks for over 1 million federal workers. 20,000 flight cancellations/delays due to air traffic controller shortages. Disruption of SNAP benefits for 42 million Americans. Financial strain on contractors and small businesses. President Trump’s Remarks Trump’s speech during the signing of the bill includes: Accusations of Democratic “extortion” and prioritizing illegal immigrants. Calls to terminate the filibuster to prevent future shutdowns. Celebration of economic achievements: record stock market highs, lower gas prices, and tax cuts. Criticism of Obamacare, proposing direct payments to citizens for healthcare instead of insurance companies. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.
