EVEN MORE about this episode!What happens when you suddenly begin seeing angels—and realize they may have been there all along? Julie Ryan talks with Rebecca Kastl about the extraordinary night a simple journal entry to God triggered a spiritual awakening she never expected—and changed the way she experienced reality.Within days, Rebecca began seeing luminous light around complete strangers, receiving unmistakable guidance from angels, and having dreams that later came true. But what began as wonder eventually led to years of questioning: Was it really Spirit, or was she imagining it all? Then came a frightening carbon monoxide incident—and an experience Rebecca believes was nothing short of angelic intervention.Rebecca and Julie explore Archangel Michael, guardian angels, prophetic dreams, angel numbers, feathers, pennies, “God bumps,” and the subtle ways Spirit may be communicating with us every day. They also discuss why spiritual awakenings can arrive when we least expect them, how to distinguish intuition from imagination, and what happens when we finally stop dismissing the signs.Guest Biography:Rebecca Kastl is a pediatric speech language pathologist, healer, speaker, and teacher who underwent a life-changing Spiritually Transformative Experience (STE) in her twenties while working on healing from childhood trauma. Her STE started when she spontaneously devoted her life to God while writing in her journal. That night she saw a beautiful light that spoke to her, after which she began seeing light inside everyone, having psychic dreams, viewing alternate timelines of her life, feeling how connected we all are, and sensing and communicating with angels. Rebecca is a former total skeptic with Christian, Jewish, and indigenous influences in her family that helped shape her understanding of her experiences. She now speaks about her experiences on podcasts and at conferences and offers her Sacred Soul sessions to clients around the globe. She is the author of Daily Moments with the Angels: A Year of Messages for Hope and Healing.Episode Chapters:(0:00:00) - The Accidental Mystic and Her Two-Year STE(0:17:00) - Processing the Experience: Skepticism, Grounding, and Alternate Timelines(0:30:49) - Sacred Soul Sessions and the Spirit Team(0:36:08) - Angels in Everyday Life: Signs, Intervention, and Free Will(0:49:45) - Spiritual Healing in Practice and Why We Incarnate➡️ Subscribe to Ask Julie Ryan YouTube➡️ Julie's Intuitive Trainings✏️ Ask Julie a Question!
This week we review the use of right axillary artery access for aortic valvuloplasty in infants. Why would this approach potentially offer advantages versus the more traditional femoral or even carotid approach? What are the particular dangers of this approach? How should the interventionist pick the approach when planning an aortic valvuloplasty in an infant with valvar aortic stenosis? We speak with Dr. Jameel Al-Ata of King Faisal Specialist Hospital in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia this week. DOI: 10.1007/s00246-025-03991-6

Kate has good money habits. She's saving, she's investing, she's automated her high-yield savings account. So why does she still feel like she's behind? Today, Nicole sits down with a Money Rehab listener for a real-life financial intervention, digging into the exact questions so many 20-somethings are quietly Googling at 1am. Kate walks Nicole through her real numbers: what she earns, what she spends, and how she's splitting money between a Roth IRA, a brokerage account, and student loan payments. Nicole breaks down the actual mechanics she never learned, like why you need cash in the account before you can buy anything, how to think about a Roth versus a brokerage account, and whether it's smart to max out one before touching the other. They also get into the emotional side of money: the guilt Kate feels every time she spends, why her financial goals always seem to move further away the more she achieves, and how giving herself a real number for guilt-free spending changes everything.

[Listen Again] We're bringing back this episode because it's just too good not to share again! As we continue talking about supporting struggling readers, this conversation feels just as relevant today. If you missed it the first time—or could use a refresher—we're revisiting some of the biggest lessons we learned about phonics, intervention, and foundational reading skills in upper elementary.Many upper elementary teachers know their struggling readers need support with foundational reading skills, but knowing exactly what to teach—and how to fit it into an already-packed school day—can feel overwhelming. In this Dear Stellar Teacher episode, we're sharing our biggest phonics confessions, including the mistakes we made in our own classrooms and what we wish we had known about supporting struggling readers.In this episode, we're talking all things phonics, phonemic awareness, and reading intervention in upper elementary. We'll share why we didn't always prioritize systematic phonics instruction, why intervention can't simply become someone else's responsibility, and what we've learned about helping older students strengthen the foundational skills they need to become more confident readers.In this episode, we'll discuss:The biggest mistakes we made when supporting struggling readers in our own classroomsWhy systematic phonics instruction still matters in upper elementaryWhy we wish we had incorporated more phonemic awareness into our literacy instructionHow a lack of knowledge and confidence can make foundational skills instruction feel overwhelmingWhy classroom teachers still play an important role in supporting students who need interventionWhat we've learned about providing more effective decoding and foundational skills supportResources Mentioned:⭐ The Stellar Literacy Collective: stellarteacher.com/intervention

Nancy Guthrie, 84 years old, the mother of Savannah Guthrie, disappeared from her Tucson-area home on February 1st. From the beginning, this case had the appearance of an abduction: a vulnerable elderly woman taken from her own home, evidence left behind, surveillance leads, and eventually ransom communications that pushed this case into a national spotlight.Now, six months later, we have new public information. The Pima County Sheriff's Department released two ransom notes that had been received early in the investigation. TMZ has also reported receiving emails from someone claiming to have information about Nancy, the alleged kidnappers, and even video evidence. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Episode 321: Differentiation vs. Intervention: What's the Difference?Raise your hand if you have a struggling reader in your classroom. Now, keep your hand raised if you've ever wondered: Am I actually giving this student the support they need?Differentiation and intervention are two terms that get thrown around all the time, and they're often used interchangeably. But they serve two very different purposes. Understanding the difference can help you identify what your struggling readers actually need and make more intentional instructional decisions.In this episode, we're talking all things differentiation, intervention, and how to determine which type of support your struggling readers actually need. You'll learn how differentiation helps students access grade-level learning, while intervention targets the underlying skill gaps that may be preventing students from becoming stronger, more successful readers.In this episode, we'll discuss:The key difference between differentiation and interventionPractical differentiation strategiesHow to recognize when differentiation alone isn't enoughHow intervention targets specific foundational skill gapsHow differentiation and intervention can work together to support struggling readersResources Mentioned:⭐ The Stellar Intervention Toolkit: https://learn.stellarteacher.com/intervention

On August 20, I'm going to be hosting a webinar on how to use AI to validate the quotes you receive from contractors and subcontractors. To register for the webinar click HERE. Even if you can't attend live, we will send you the recording. --------------Today we're talking about an announcement from the U.S. Treasury Department that has generated a surprising amount of noise in the financial markets.The two words getting attention are Treasury buybacks.Treasury announced today, August 19, that beginning September 9 it will increase, by at least double, the size of its liquidity support buyback operations for longer-dated Treasury securities. Specifically, the maximum size for operations in the 10-to-20-year and 20-to-30-year sectors will increase from $2 billion to at least $4 billion per operation.It might be coincidence, but this happened on the same day that US debt topped $40T. The country's “total public debt outstanding” officially hit $40.047 trillion on Tuesday, the Treasury Department reported Wednesday, ticking up from $39.987 trillion a day earlier.Immediately, people started describing this as quantitative easing, QE light, yield curve control, and even a new version of Operation Twist.I think we need to separate the mechanics from the headlines.A Treasury buyback is not the same thing as Federal Reserve quantitative easing. The Treasury is already issuing enormous quantities of debt. In a buyback operation, Treasury can issue securities in one part of the market and use some of those proceeds to repurchase securities that are already outstanding.The important distinction is which securities they are buying.The liquidity support program primarily targets what are called off-the-run Treasury securities.When Treasury issues a new 10-year note, for example, that newly issued security becomes the on-the-run Treasury. It tends to trade very actively. The older 10-year securities that were issued previously become off-the-run securities.They're still Treasury obligations. Their credit quality hasn't changed. But they don't necessarily trade with the same liquidity. That becomes important during periods of market stress. If a large investor needs to sell a significant quantity of an older Treasury security, there may not be as deep a pool of buyers as there is for the newest issue.--------------**Real Estate Espresso Podcast:** Spotify: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://open.spotify.com/show/3GvtwRmTq4r3es8cbw8jW0?si=c75ea506a6694ef1) iTunes: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-real-estate-espresso-podcast/id1340482613) Website: [www.victorjm.com](http://www.victorjm.com) LinkedIn: [Victor Menasce](http://www.linkedin.com/in/vmenasce) YouTube: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](http://www.youtube.com/@victorjmenasce6734) Facebook: [www.facebook.com/realestateespresso](http://www.facebook.com/realestateespresso) Email: [podcast@victorjm.com](mailto:podcast@victorjm.com) **Y Street Capital:** Website: [www.ystreetcapital.com](http://www.ystreetcapital.com) Facebook: [www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital](https://www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital) Instagram: [@ystreetcapital](http://www.instagram.com/ystreetcapital)

US-Finanzministerium stützt Anleihemarkt – Renditen fallen deutlich Das US-Finanzministerium will seine Rückkäufe langlaufender Staatsanleihen mehr als verdoppeln. Damit reagiert Washington auf den zuletzt starken Renditeanstieg am Treasury-Markt. Die Rendite 30-jähriger US-Staatsanleihen war zeitweise auf den höchsten Stand seit fast 20 Jahren gestiegen. Die Nachricht sorgte unmittelbar für Entspannung: Die Anleihekurse zogen an, die Renditen fielen deutlich. Wichtig: Bei den Rückkäufen handelt es sich nicht um ein neues QE-Programm der Fed. Ziel des Treasury ist es vielmehr, die Liquidität und Funktionsfähigkeit des Marktes zu verbessern. Für die Wall Street ist der Schritt kurzfristig positiv. Sinkende langfristige Renditen entlasten insbesondere Technologie- und Wachstumsaktien. Gleichzeitig zeigt die Intervention aber auch, wie groß die Nervosität angesichts steigender US-Staatsschulden und hoher Finanzierungskosten inzwischen ist.

You want the flowchart. Of course you do! If X, then Y would be something to follow when there's no bandwidth left to think it through in the moment. But there isn't a flowchart, and this episode gets into why: stress capacity shifts by the hour, different nervous system states pull different memory networks online, and two nervous systems are shaping each other in real time, not just one. What there is instead is a map. Knowing both how to read it and how to adjust when something unexpected happens is crucial.

On today's show we're going to connect three things that might seem completely unrelated: the Japanese yen, United States Treasury bonds, and the interest rate on your next real estate loan.They are more closely connected than you might think.So why should a real estate investor in Dallas, Atlanta, or Phoenix care what happens to the Japanese yen?Because Japan is the largest foreign holder of United States Treasury securities. The latest Treasury data puts Japanese holdings at roughly 1.2 trillion dollars.When Japan wants to defend the yen, it needs to buy yen and sell foreign currency assets. Those reserves include an enormous portfolio of United States government securities.Now, Japan does not necessarily have to dump Treasuries into the open market. In fact, the Federal Reserve has a facility specifically designed to prevent that from happening.It's called the FIMA Repo Facility. It allows foreign monetary authorities to temporarily exchange Treasury securities for dollars rather than selling those securities outright into the market. The Federal Reserve explicitly says one purpose of the facility is to support the smooth functioning of the Treasury market by providing an alternative source of dollars. The Japanese yen has been under extraordinary pressure. It recently traded near 164 yen to the dollar, a level not seen in roughly four decades. Japan and the United States responded with a rare coordinated intervention designed to strengthen the yen. For a few days it worked. The yen strengthened to around 155. But here we are less than two weeks later, and the yen is back near 159.These interventions are not working. If the yen stabilizes, much of this concern disappears.If it doesn't, the choices become progressively more uncomfortable.Japan can intervene again. It can raise domestic interest rates more aggressively. It can access dollar liquidity against its Treasury portfolio. Or ultimately, it can sell some foreign assets.Every choice has consequences.We could see bond yields rise just because Japan can't tolerate buying oil in US dollars at 165 Yen to the dollar. -------------**Real Estate Espresso Podcast:** Spotify: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://open.spotify.com/show/3GvtwRmTq4r3es8cbw8jW0?si=c75ea506a6694ef1) iTunes: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-real-estate-espresso-podcast/id1340482613) Website: [www.victorjm.com](http://www.victorjm.com) LinkedIn: [Victor Menasce](http://www.linkedin.com/in/vmenasce) YouTube: [The Real Estate Espresso Podcast](http://www.youtube.com/@victorjmenasce6734) Facebook: [www.facebook.com/realestateespresso](http://www.facebook.com/realestateespresso) Email: [podcast@victorjm.com](mailto:podcast@victorjm.com) **Y Street Capital:** Website: [www.ystreetcapital.com](http://www.ystreetcapital.com) Facebook: [www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital](https://www.facebook.com/YStreetCapital) Instagram: [@ystreetcapital](http://www.instagram.com/ystreetcapital)

The US and Japan coordinated on the biggest currency market intervention in 15 years, helping to stabilize a weakening yen. Karen Fishman, senior FX strategist in Goldman Sachs Research, and Praneet Shah, global head of FX options trading in Global Banking & Markets, discuss why the US joined the action, why the yen still appears undervalued, and whether another intervention might follow. Key takeaways: The scale of Japan's intervention was historic, but the US role was symbolic. Japan's operation, estimated to be worth up to $85 billion over July 30 and July 31, was its largest two-day intervention on record outside of October 2011. The US leg was much smaller, but pushed the yen further by signaling the US' willingness to help. Washington's involvement was likely aimed at limiting volatility in US markets. The timing of US support coincided with some volatility in US interest rates, in addition to other factors. Intervention may buy time, but it is a short-term measure. In the longer term, policy measures convincing Japanese investors to shift back towards Japanese assets could help reverse the yen's low valuation. This episode was recorded on August 10, 2026.

Dollar dominance is eroding. And recent moves by the U.S. and Japan to support the yen underscore this reality. On this week's Midweek Memo podcast, Mike Maharrey explains the recent intervention to support the yen and why it signals the dollar ain't what it used to be. He explains the mechanics of the intervention, what it tells us about the state of the bond market, why it looks bad for the greenback, and what it could mean for gold. In this episode, Mike also talks about Rand Paul's field trip to Fort Knox and why his insistence that he knows the gold is all there is ridiculous.
Raymond Cheng highlights the recent resumption of the Yen downtrend against the USD after intervention, and discusses outlook on the currency pair and Japan equities.Speaker:- Raymond Cheng, Chief Investment Officer, North Asia, Standard Chartered Bank For more of our latest market insights, visit Market views on-the-go or subscribe to Standard Chartered Wealth Insights on YouTube.
In this episode of Regulation Station, Becca Engle is joined by psychologist, speaker, author, and neurodiversity advocate Dr Matt Zakreski for a wide-ranging conversation about giftedness, ADHD, neurodivergence, education, and what true regulation actually looks like.Together, Becca and Dr Matt explore why so many neurodivergent people grow up feeling like "weird horses" before discovering they're actually zebras, how environments shape success more than most people realise, and why many of the systems designed to support neurodivergent people still miss the mark. From gifted education and twice-exceptionality to school accommodations, therapy, and burnout, this episode challenges assumptions about what support should look like. In this episode: What it means to be twice-exceptional (2e) Why giftedness is a form of neurodivergence The connection between justice, advocacy, and neurodivergent identity Common misconceptions about ADHD and neurodivergence What regulation really looks like beyond social media advice Why environment plays a critical role in wellbeing and success The limitations of traditional educational and therapeutic systems Universal design and creating neurodivergent-affirming environments Supporting gifted, disabled, and twice-exceptional learners The importance of self-compassion and understanding your own needs Guest:Dr Matt Zakreski is a clinical psychologist, professional speaker, author, podcaster, and leading advocate for gifted and neurodivergent individuals. His work focuses on helping neurodivergent people better understand themselves, develop practical strategies, and thrive in environments that often weren't designed with them in mind.

WEPA!!! Some stories never die… they just wait in the shadows for the perfect creator to resurrect them. And this Halloween season, creator Norm Konyu is opening the crypt and inviting readers into the beautifully twisted world of Edgar Allan Poe with the upcoming Edgar Allan Poe: A Tale of Mystery and Intervention from Titan Comics, arriving October 6, 2026. This isn't your dusty classroom version of Poe. Norm Konyu delivers a darkly playful graphic novel experience where humor, dread, melancholy, and beauty dance together like ghosts at a masquerade ball. The project serves as both a celebration of Poe's legendary literary legacy and a modern exploration of why strange stories continue haunting generation after generation. Even better, the graphic novel reportedly includes a reflective postscript where Konyu breaks down literary references and his personal connection to Poe's work. Norm Konyu has once again proven he's one of the most unique creative voices in comics today, blending emotional storytelling with visually atmospheric worlds that stay with readers long after the final page. Comic Crusaders readers looking for something spooky, smart, emotional, and visually unforgettable should absolutely keep this one on their radar. October can't come fast enough.
In episode 124, we sit down with Dr. Phoenix Van Wagoner, Assistant Professor of Management at California State University, Fullerton, to discuss an fun workplace resource for mental health: curiosity.Mental health challenges such as anxiety and depression affect millions of employees, yet organizations often struggle to understand what helps people manage these experiences during the workday. This study found that employees who experienced greater curiosity and interest while performing their work reported lower symptoms of anxiety and depression. Even more encouraging, these benefits were strongest for employees who were already most likely to struggle with anxiety and depression.Find the paper here: https://psycnet.apa.org/record/2027-87739-001Find Dr. Van Wagoner here: https://weldresearchlab.com/phoenixvanwagoner This is a public episode.

August 9th, 2026 Pastor Chad McDonald God laid the heavy burden of a strong prophecy and warning on the shoulders of His messenger, Malachi. But what motivated God to lay such a burden on Malachi? What was behind this strong warning and harsh words? It was not God’s wrath nor was it that God was merely annoyed. The motivation behind it all was God’s covenantal loyal love for His people. God made a covenant with Israel, a commitment to love them and keep them. He promised that He would not leave them or abandon them. And even though they rejected Him repeatedly, He would not let them go. He loved them to the extent that He would not allow them to remain in a place of disobedience and sin. He intervened to strip away what was standing between them and Him. In a similar way, if we know Christ, God has made promises to us. He has promised to never leave us or abandon us. He has promised to sanctify us and one day glorify us. And even though we may sometimes drift into sin and disobedience, He loves us too much to let us remain there. He will go to work to strip away anything that comes between us and Him. I pray you will join us this weekend for one of our worship services as we learn more about God’s love and faithfulness through the prophet Malachi.

Dr. Marc Faber editor and publisher of the Gloom, Boom & Doom Report, returns to argue that we are witnessing the first phase of the piercing of the greatest global investment mania. He explains why central bank money printing has inflated asset prices far beyond economic reality — enriching asset holders while ordinary people face a cost of living he estimates is rising 7–12% a year, not the official 3–4%. Faber walks through the cracks already visible: collapsing commercial property values, falling home prices, meme stocks and SPACs that never recovered their 2021 peaks, a narrowing market advance, the semiconductor unwind, and the speculative blow-off in Korea. He argues the 10-year Treasury should yield at least 6.5%, that the Fed should have been hiking rather than cutting, and that the US may already be in recession. With interest costs on federal debt above $1 trillion a year, he says more money printing isn't a choice but an inevitability — and warns that bubbles typically end with the revelation of a massive fraud. His advice is blunt: this is not a market for making money, it's a market for losing the least. He makes the case for broad diversification across cash, bonds, precious metals, and real estate, explains why he refuses to own index funds, shares why Thailand is his largest position, and closes on gold, hyperinflation, and why he thinks the price should already be far higher.Thank you to our partners Augusta Precious Metals — To learn more, visit https://juliabuysgold.com/ or text “Julia" to 35052Monetary Metals - learn more at https://www.monetary-metals.com/julia/Links:The Gloom, Boom & Doom Report: https://www.gloomboomdoom.comTimestamps:00:00 Intro: Marc Faber returns01:06 The macro picture: money printing and record wealth inequality03:33 Why capitalism made the world rich, and who got left behind05:21 The stock market is in the sky, but ordinary life isn't06:58 First signs the investment mania is being pierced07:35 Why printed money doesn't lift everything at once09:55 Commercial and residential property prices roll over10:45 Meme stocks, SPACs, Mag 7 and the semiconductor unwind11:30 Korea: the biggest bubble nobody's talking about12:15 The missing link: a massive fraud is coming13:48 Nominal vs real: how money printing masks the damage14:45 Real inflation is 7-12%, not 3-4%15:49 Where rates should be: 6.5% on the 10-year16:27 Government debt, $1T interest, and why the deficit can't shrink17:56 The situation is hopeless18:39 Where Faber puts his own money20:20 More money printing is inevitable21:27 Assessing Kevin Warsh at the Fed22:33 The Fed should have hiked, and the US is already in recession23:23 Intervention and the death of free markets25:52 The contrarian bond call and the case for diversification28:17 The government has become the mafia28:42 Why a debt crisis is unavoidable29:55 Sell early, but where do you hide?31:34 Thin ice: why ordinary people are forced to speculate31:59 Affordability at the worst level ever32:25 The passive investing problem35:10 Index concentration vs the other 493 stocks36:13 Lessons from 1987: down 21% in a single day37:26 One year from now: a lot of people will lose a lot of money38:35 Hong Kong war stories: the traders who lost everything40:11 The contrarian buy: Thailand, the failed state41:30 Food self-sufficiency, safety, and life in Asia43:56 Where to find his work45:11 Gold, and why he says it should already be $100,00046:07 Hyperinflation, Zimbabwe, and central bank role models

Comparing vocabulary instruction for children who use AAC is not a one size fits all decision, and that is exactly what makes this conversation so valuable.Vocabulary intervention is one of the topics I get asked about most often, and there is still so much to learn about the best ways to support children who use AAC. I'm joined by Dr. Courtney Trevino to unpack her research comparing explicit vocabulary instruction with more naturalistic, incidental teaching. We explore what each approach looks like in practice, how vocabulary was selected for the study, and what the findings can teach us as clinicians.One strategy that really stood out to me was navigation description, talking out loud through the path you take to find a word on an AAC system. It is such a practical way to support learning, while also helping parents, teachers, RBTs, and other team members become more confident using AAC. I walked away thinking differently about how I teach vocabulary, and I think you will too. If you are looking for practical, research-backed ideas that you can start using right away, this conversation is full of them.#autism #speechtherapyWhat's Inside:Why explicit vocabulary instruction led to stronger word learning outcomesHow navigation description can support both AAC users and communication partnersChoosing vocabulary for early AAC learners, including developmental versus core wordsPractical ways to blend structured teaching into everyday therapyMentioned In This Episode:Comparing Two Vocabulary Interventions for Children Who Use Augmentative and Alternative CommunicationDr. Courtney TrevinoAAC Mastery for SLPs and BCBAsEarn CEUs with a community of peers.

Today, a look at the implications for a stronger JPY from coordinated intervention as the US has joined forces with Japan to force yen appreciation.

The deepest states of healing and flow are not something we have to force. They are something we gain access to, when we finally stop interfering.Today's guest is Dr. Arpit Bansal, an advanced laparoscopic and cancer surgeon, gut-health and longevity specialist, international speaker, and the visionary known as the “Aquaman Biohacker.” Drawing from more than 15 years in medicine, along with his exploration of breathwork, consciousness, biohacking, and underwater meditation, Dr. Arpit bridges the worlds of modern science and the innate intelligence of the human body.In today's conversation, we explore how to access what Dr. Arpit calls the quantum flow state through the practice of coherent non-intervention—a state in which we release force, control, and resistance so that the nervous system, breath, body, and awareness can return to coherence.We also dive deeply into the healing power of water as a living environment that can support nervous-system regulation, emotional release, expanded awareness, and a profound return to stillness.Dr. Arpit shares why water has become both his teacher and his laboratory, how immersion can change our relationship with our bodies and minds, and that our greatest medicine already exists within us.This episode is another reminder that healing does not always come from doing more. Sometimes, it begins when we allow ourselves to become still. Send us Fan MailThis episode is brought to you by Ojas Oasis Ayurveda, Sasha's private clinical practice.
