Hey, it's Akash here, and on this week's episode of RNT Fitness Radio, I'm bringing back a classic - a rerun of what's still the most popular team episode we've ever recorded.   It's called “What Typical Mindfulness Is Missing”, and over the years, it's racked up tens of thousands of downloads. I think it struck it chord when it dropped because it tackled a conversation we have often behind the scenes at RNT - the idea that you can't just think your way to a transformation. Mindfulness is powerful, and it absolutely has its place. But on its own, it's not enough. Just like physical change isn't the full picture either. What we're really after - and what this episode explores - is a holistic approach that blends mind, body, and action. This originally aired four or five years ago, but the message is just as relevant today - if not more. I hope you enjoy revisiting it.   Chapters: 00:00 The Journey of Self: Body and Soul Connection 02:03 Introspection and Action: The Transformation Formula 04:43 The Power of Journaling: A Personal Practice 08:41 Finding Presence: Mindfulness in Daily Activities 10:50 Individuality in Practices: Tailoring Your Journey 16:29 Facing Stress Head-On: The Importance of Action 21:34 Breaking the Cycle: Moving Beyond Victimhood 25:42 Ownership and Transformation: The Key to Progress 30:07 Physical as the Vehicle: Health and Higher Consciousness 32:07 Mindfulness and Physical Health Connection 35:04 The Importance of Physical Health for Mental Resilience 39:35 Balancing Work and Recovery 42:00 Creating Effective Evening Routines 48:40 Prioritising Health and Self-Care   Next steps:  1) Apply for 1-1 coaching: https://www.rntfitness.co.uk/pro/   2) Take our quiz to see if you're ready for a transformation: http://www.rntfitness.co.uk/transform   3) Get our free book shipped to your door: https://bit.ly/tybtylform   4) Try our free 28 day fat loss accelerator: https://www.rntfitness.co.uk/transformation-accelerator  5) Optimum Nutrition: RNT20 for 20% off Connect with RNT Fitness:  Website  Facebook  Instagram  YouTube  Email  Connect with Akash:  Facebook  Instagram  LinkedIn 

Episode SummaryIn the final episode of the Mind War series on the Satisfied program, Ryan Swanson tackles a difficult but crucial topic: desire. Is the struggle in our thought life something we must simply manage forever, or does God offer more? With biblical clarity and pastoral empathy, Ryan shares the hope that victory isn't just about saying “no”—it's about saying “yes” to Jesus, and discovering the peace of a transformed mind.Topics DiscussedThe distinction between temptation and desireCan God change your desires?Testimonies of men battling addiction and cravingIsaiah 26:3 and the key to perfect peaceReframing the battle: it's not a yes/no choice, it's a multiple choiceDesire, availability, and isolation in thought life strugglesWhy saying “yes” to Christ is the only path to victoryWhat David teaches us about longing in Psalm 63Encouragement to fight the battle, but aim for peaceKey TakeawaysThe goal of spiritual warfare isn't just a good fight—it's peace.Saying “no” to sin is not enough; victory comes by saying “yes” to Christ.God may want to do more than help you resist sin—He may want to change what you desire.Perfect peace is possible, not when you try harder, but when your mind is stayed on Christ.Your journey is not just about fighting gratification but about learning to be satisfied in Jesus.Ready to download the Cord App?

In this episode, host Darnelle Radford speaks with Ross Beschler about the Wilma Theater's final production of the season, A Summer Day, written by Jan Fosse. They discuss the unique Hothouse ensemble experience, the themes of love, loss, and memory in the play, and the challenges of communication and language in expressing deep emotions. The conversation highlights the importance of ensemble work and the artistic journey of the Hothouse members. In this conversation, Ross Beschler and Darnelle Radford explore the themes of language, memory, identity, and the dynamics of relationships through the lens of the play 'A Summer Day' by Jan Fossa. They discuss how exaggeration in language can shape perceptions, the role of characters in navigating crises, and the importance of introspection versus action in understanding oneself and others. The conversation delves into the complexities of memory and how it influences identity, as well as the societal challenges of understanding and miscommunication. Ultimately, they reflect on the human experience and the significance of connection in the face of life's uncertainties.A SUMMER DAYBY JON FOSSETRANSLATED BY SARAH CAMERON SUNDEDIRECTED BY YURY URNOVJune 10–29, 2025Experience the haunting beauty of Norwegian playwright Jon Fosse's A Summer Day, directed by inventive Co-Artistic Director Yury Urnov (Mr. Burns, Minor Character, 12th Night) in a production that delves into the depths of human connection, memory, and existential longing. Is there one day in your past you keep replaying again and again? When do we start spending more time in the past than in the present? Through Fosse's poetic language and Urnov's innovative direction and immersive visual design, audiences are transported into an epic and intimate world where past and present intertwine, inviting reflection on the fleeting nature of time and the eternal search for meaning. Often referred to as a modern-day Ibsen, Fosse won a Nobel Prize in Literature in 2023 – one of the few playwrights to ever receive that honor – and is rarely produced in the United States.Chapters00:00 Introduction to the Wilma Theater and A Summer Day02:40 The Hothouse Experience and Ensemble Work11:30 Exploring the Play: A Summer Day17:24 Themes of Love, Loss, and Memory20:30 Language and Communication in A Summer Day24:30 The Power of Language and Exaggeration26:41 Character Dynamics and Intrusions29:58 Memory and Identity in Relationships32:00 Understanding and Misunderstanding in Society36:45 Introspection vs. Action39:32 Replaying Moments and Learning from the Past44:53 The Essence of A Summer DayFOR TICKETS AND INFORMATION: https://wilmatheater.org/event/asummerday/

In this episode of The Creative Genius Podcast, I talk with designer, writer, and thinker Ben Rennie, author of a new book that explores the transformative power of curiosity and creativity. Together, we unpack the dynamic relationship between curiosity, creativity, and confidence, and how this path can guide us to overcome fear and step more fully into our potential. Ben shares his personal story—sparked by a promise to his late mother—that led him to examine how people find themselves in powerful, unexpected places.We explore the idea that creativity isn't limited to the arts but is instead the ability to see things differently, solve problems, and bring ideas to life. Through vivid stories and practical wisdom, Ben and I explore how curiosity is the antidote to fear, how creativity naturally flows from curiosity, and how confidence is built by simply beginning—and continuing—to create.From imposter syndrome at a Dolce & Gabbana event to finding inspiration in nature, this conversation is a powerful invitation to get curious, stay creative, and be kind to yourself in the process.Topics Covered:How curiosity dissolves fearWhy creativity is about seeing possibilities, not just making artReframing repetition: why doing what's been done before is still meaningfulHow creative confidence is earned through actionThe role of environment and nature in creative flow Navigating imposter syndromeand Honouring your pathResources & Mentions: Ben Rennie's new book Ben's “Wednesdays” blog on Medium Brene Brown Steve Jobs: “You can't connect the dots looking forward…” Meredith Hite-Estevez: “Join a song already singing” Rick Rubin: on creativity and remixing existing ideasTakeaways / Call to Action:Follow your curiosity—it's the best antidote to fear Just start, even if it's been done before—your voice mattersPractice regularly and create space for your creativityCapture your ideas on the goBe gentle with yourselfSpend time in nature to reset and reconnect

Earlier this year, the paper "Emergent Misalignment" made the rounds on AI x-risk social media for seemingly showing LLMs generalizing from 'misaligned' training data of insecure code to acting comically evil in response to innocuous questions. In this episode, I chat with one of the authors of that paper, Owain Evans, about that research as well as other work he's done to understand the psychology of large language models.

Reflecting on the journey of my grandson, born prematurely, we dedicate this episode to his speedy recovery and explore the concept of "afflictions of love" from the Talmud's Tractate Berachot 5a. We consider the paradox of life's greatest gifts often requiring the most arduous paths—whether it's mastering the Torah or making Aliyah to Israel. Through personal stories and experiences, we explore the idea that these challenges form an integral part of spiritual growth, offering not just purification, but a deeper connection to the divine.Our exploration continues with a discussion on viewing divine rebuke as an expression of love. By examining teachings from the Torah and insights from figures like Rabbi Yisrael Salanter, we dissect how lesser afflictions can provide lessons for enduring more significant ones. This episode also highlights the significance of individualized tests tailored by Hashem, encouraging us to embrace these challenges not merely as trials but as opportunities for profound spiritual cleansing and liberation. We recognize the importance of appreciating these divine challenges, for they contribute to building our resilience and character.The conversation extends into the realm of parenting, exploring the delicate balance between allowing children to navigate life's challenges and intervening when necessary. We discuss strategies for fostering healthy environments, especially in our technologically saturated world, and emphasize the importance of empathy and compassion in our interactions with others. Through narratives of balancing love and humanity, we conclude with the hope that these insights provide guidance and inspiration, encouraging listeners to face their personal trials with faith and fortitude._____________The Thinking Talmudist Podcast shares select teachings of Talmud in a fresh, insightful and meaningful way. Many claim that they cannot learn Talmud because it is in ancient Aramaic or the concepts are too difficult. Well, no more excuses.

In this episode of Eyes on Whiteness, Maureen invites educators—teachers, counselors, staff, and school leaders—into a reflection on introspection as a form of resistance.Not resistance through exhaustion or constant urgency.But resistance through honesty. Through pause. Through returning to self.In institutions shaped by white supremacy culture, educators are often expected to perform superhuman care without ever tending to their own needs. Perfectionism. Urgency. Emotional suppression. Compliance. These are not neutral workplace norms—they are expressions of whiteness.This episode offers a different path.You'll hear:Real stories from educators who used introspection to act with integrity under pressureMaureen's personal reckoning with overwork, urgency, and the moment she realized her students were getting her performance—not her presenceA guided reflection to explore how you've survived—and what you might be ready to releaseA compassionate invitation to slow down, reflect, and practice new leadership rhythms rooted in alignment, not sacrificeReflection Prompts:What coping mechanisms helped you survive—but no longer serve your values?Where has urgency pulled you away from being present—with your students, or with yourself?What might shift if you gave yourself the same grace you offer your students?Featured Educators (with deep gratitude):Mary Wood (South Carolina): for choosing alignment over complianceAmanda Jones (Louisiana): for resisting censorship with honesty and care — @librarianjonesKatherine Rinderle (Georgia): for centering students over policyAbbey Clements (Connecticut): for turning trauma into a vision of healing and advocacy — LinkedInSubscribe + Stay Connected: To stay close to this work, subscribe to the newsletter and explore the course, Cultivating Intersectional Leadership, at: www.cultivatingintersectionalleadership.comYou don't have to be perfect. You're simply invited to be present—and to begin again.Support the show

Whether you want to hear it or not, healing starts with you. And the faster you push what someone else did to the side, the quicker you can move on to understanding who you want to be and what it will take to get there. While I'm a strong advocate for community, this part of the journey is all about self—self-awareness, self-compassion, self-love.

What if the very struggles and afflictions we face are divine opportunities for introspection and growth? We invite you to explore the poignant insights of Tractate Brachot 5A, where ancient wisdom meets modern challenges. This episode unpacks the spiritual significance of illness and suffering, not as obstacles but as gifts that allow for emotional and spiritual preparation. Against the backdrop of the tragic events in Israel on October 7th, 2023, we draw parallels to the collective need for unity and reflection during national crises, urging us to find purpose and meaning even in our darkest moments.Emphasizing vigilance and dedication, we examine how the Torah community must embrace a renewed sense of responsibility. Through personal anecdotes and teachings from the Talmud, we see how unexpected situations can transform into opportunities for mitzvot, revealing the divine messages hidden within our daily experiences. Reflect on the profound concept of "afflictions of love," where divine trials aren't just burdens but pathways to purify the soul and earn eternal rewards. As we connect these lessons to the spiritual essence of the Korban Asham, we understand the weight of acknowledging wrongdoings and seeking atonement.In a world where routine often dulls passion, this episode challenges us to maintain the sincerity and purpose behind our sacred practices. Through the lens of childhood vaccinations, we draw parallels to how afflictions are expressions of divine love. We also explore the profound notion from the Talmud that the suffering of children serves as a powerful atonement message for their generation, urging personal and communal introspection. Together, we strive to embrace these lessons, extending wishes for a meaningful and peaceful Shabbos, filled with reflection and spiritual connection._____________The Thinking Talmudist Podcast shares select teachings of Talmud in a fresh, insightful and meaningful way. Many claim that they cannot learn Talmud because it is in ancient Aramaic or the concepts are too difficult. Well, no more excuses. In this podcast you will experience the refreshing and eye-opening teachings while gaining an amazing appreciation for the divine wisdom of the Torah and the depths of the Talmud.This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by David & Susan MarbinRecorded at TORCH Meyerland in the Levin Family Studios to a live audience on May 2, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on May 16, 2025_____________DONATE to TORCH: Please consider supporting the podcasts by making a donation to help fund our Jewish outreach and educational efforts at https://www.torchweb.org/support.php.

Episode SummaryIn this episode, Ryan Swanson delivers a compelling installment of the Satisfied program, part of the _Mind War_series on the thought life. He exposes how the enemy capitalizes on repeated patterns of temptation and how ignoring spiritual warning signs leads to the same destructive outcome. Through candid storytelling and scriptural insight, Ryan challenges listeners to end the cycle by taking every thought captive—immediately.Topics DiscussedWhy your temptations are often familiarSatan's strategy: repetition over innovationReal-life account of facing temptation at a gas stationHow to respond when the Holy Spirit warns youWhat it means to truly take a thought captive (2 Corinthians 10:5)The deadly trajectory of unchecked thoughtsPractical hope for teens caught in secret sinVictory through surrender and vigilanceKey TakeawaysThe enemy's predictability is his power—unless you break the cycle.Taking thoughts captive must be immediate, not delayed.Ignoring the Spirit leads to spiritual defeat.Repetitive temptation is a sign that the war is raging in your thought life.Victory is possible when you expose sin, seek accountability, and yield to Christ.Ready to download the Cord App?

Amidst the hum of life's daily challenges, I found myself pondering the deeper meanings behind adversity and spiritual growth. Our episode today begins with a profound reflection on a Talmudic passage from Tractate Brachot, which contrasts the human experience of loss with the divine joy of gifting the Torah. This exploration sets the stage for a broader conversation on how personal struggles can spark introspection, especially poignant as we honor Yom HaShoah, Holocaust Remembrance Day. We delve into the dualities of human nature, reflecting on both the capacity for cruelty and the remarkable resilience and compassion that define our shared history.Our journey then takes us alongside the Baal Shem Tov to the bustling city of Istanbul, where his unwavering faith in divine providence leads to remarkable encounters just before Pesach. A wealthy couple's hospitality turns into a mystical adventure, emphasizing the power of simple faith and curiosity in spiritual growth. Through his trials and the eventual recitation of the Aleph Bet, we explore the foundational role of learning and faith in our lives, highlighting the profound connection between belief and the pursuit of spiritual enlightenment.Lastly, we turn our attention to the themes of prophecy and suffering, exploring how moments of pain can serve as catalysts for personal growth. Sharing personal stories of illness and resilience, we consider how these experiences can be viewed as divine communication, urging us to seek deeper understanding. Whether it's a burnt hand at Pesach or the enduring health challenges of loved ones, these stories remind us of the importance of introspection and faith. By embracing adversity, we invite opportunities for spiritual alignment and a more profound relationship with the divine. Join us as we navigate the complexities of faith, suffering, and the pursuit of spiritual insight._____________The Thinking Talmudist Podcast shares select teachings of Talmud in a fresh, insightful and meaningful way.

Bienvenue dans cet épisode spécial du balado « Au-delà de la thèse avec Papa PhD» produit en collaboration avec l'équipe ÉOA hors les murs de l'École d'orthophonie et d'audiologie de l'université de Montréal, au long duquel nous vous invitons à plonger dans une conversation inspirante et authentique enregistrée en direct devant public, où notre animateur David Mendes anime un panel d'invités aux parcours post-PhD aussi inspirants que diversifiés. Ensemble, ils lèvent le voile sur la fameuse question : que se passe-t-il vraiment après l'obtention d'un doctorat ? À travers les voix de Stéphanie Luna, Pascale Dubois, Christophe Alarie et Katherine Montpetit-Tourangeau, vous découvrirez les réalités – parfois similaires, souvent très différentes – de la vie professionnelle post-PhD. Ils partagent sans filtre les doutes, les réflexions, les bifurcations imprévues, mais aussi leurs découvertes et leurs satisfactions personnelles et professionnelles, qu'ils travaillent dans la recherche, dans le privé, au gouvernemental ou dans le mlieu de l'innovation. Dans cet épisode, on aborde les enjeux de la sortie du milieu académique, l'importance du choix du superviseur dans cette transition, la place du réseautage, de l'introspection et du mentorat, ainsi que les hauts et les bas du parcours doctoral. Les invité·es nous expliquent comment ils ont su transposer leurs compétences pour s'épanouir au-delà de la thèse, et livrent de précieux conseils à ceux et celles qui songent à leur avenir tout en jonglant avec les défis de la rédaction, de l'équilibre vie-travail et des incertitudes de la fin de parcours doctoral. Préparez-vous à découvrir des histoires vraies, des conseils concrets, et des témoignages porteurs d'espoir et de motivation pour tous celleuxs qui se questionnent sur l'après-thèse. Bonne écoute ! Trois points à retenir : Le réseau, c'est de l'or : Le réseautage n'a rien d'effrayant – il s'agit simplement de rester curieux, de poser des questions, et d'échanger avec des personnes de différents horizons. Que ce soit à travers des organisations étudiantes, des cafés virtuels ou LinkedIn, chaque rencontre peut ouvrir de nouvelles portes. Introspection et alignement personnel : Prendre le temps de se connaître, de définir ses valeurs et ses priorités, c'est essentiel pour orienter sa carrière post-doctorale. Ne pas hésiter à demander du mentorat, à explorer plusieurs pistes, et à s'appuyer sur les services offerts à l'université pour planifier la suite. Le doctorat, une source de compétences transversales : Au-delà du sujet pointu de recherche, le doctorat développe des compétences solides en résolution de problèmes complexes, en gestion de projets, en synthèse et en communication – des atouts précieux dans tous les milieux professionnels, public comme privé. Merci aux panélistes pour leur authenticité et leurs conseils concrets. La vie après la thèse est tout sauf une ligne droite — et c'est justement là que réside la beauté du parcours. Vous hésitez sur le « après » ? Gardez l'esprit ouvert, osez réseauter et faites confiance à vos acquis !

Watch on Youtube instead - https://youtu.be/RinLuTi04cICurious Worldview Newsletter - https://curiousworldview.beehiiv.com/subscribeColin Thubron (Link's to all books)-----Colin Thubron is one of the greatest living travel writers. He started with the Mirror To Damascus in 1967 and with more than half a century and 18 travel books later published his journey along the Amur River just a few years ago. He's a contemporary of Theroux, Chatwin, early Dalrymple and inspiration for the newer generation of his genre, the likes of Rory Stewart, Levison Wood and many, many more. Colin has been a dream guest of mine for many years.This interview travelled a line across the map of his career. Colin reflects on his many experiences in Russia and China, the impact of historical events like the Cultural Revolution, the collapse of the Soviet Union - and the broader evolution of travel writing throughout the years. He gets into the effects of globalisation on cultural identities and how it's effected his experience over the decades. Colin observes the complexities of nationalism and patriotism, and as well discusses the role religion in his life, the nature of belief, and the rationality behind it all. Colin then comments on mortality and his legacy which leads to a discussion on how travel can serve as a coping mechanism for grief. Plus, together we also touch on the choices and more difficult trade offs surrounding parenthood and career, his aspirations for future literary projects, and the influence of serendipity behind it all. I can see from the analytics that not even 20% of you who are listening are following the show, I wish this to be 100!

Dispelling the myth of a "midlife crisis," Julie highlights that many over 40 find fulfillment in relationships and careers. Instead of crisis, midlife is framed as a period for personal and professional growth. Through personal reflections, the speaker discusses career changes, rediscovering passions, and setting new priorities. Emphasizing community support, they encourage listeners to view midlife as an opportunity to explore new possibilities and build a meaningful, joyful life. Join us for an inspiring chat on thriving during midlife!Join my Confident You Mastermind This deeply personal and powerful memoir chronicles Pastor Bill LaMorey's transformation from brokenness to redemption and ultimately, to a life of purpose and leadership. The book is structured like a play with three “Acts”: Brokenness, Redemption, and Transformation. Throughout, he blends personal storytelling with universal truths, aiming to help others recognize the redemptive potential in their own stories.

In this episode, we delve into a captivating narrative titled "Ghost on the Newsreel Negative." As we explore this tale, we are transported back to a time when news was communicated through microfiche and newsreels. The story begins with a discussion about the casual joys of reading, as the narrator enjoys the ironic mix of life and death chronicled in the obituaries and the comedic escapades found in the funny pages. This sets an intriguing tone that invites listeners to gather around as secrets and shadows unfold.As our protagonists, Martin and Whit, embark on their journey to a seemingly abandoned ghost farm, we follow their playful banter that quickly turns into a more complex investigation of supernatural lore. They're on a mission to capture the essence of supposed hauntings for a newsreel, sparking a rich dialogue about skepticism and faith in the supernatural. The backdrop of the ghost farm, with its desolate house and barn, serves as the perfect setting for the unfolding drama. The humorous exchanges continue as they engage with a quirky local who claims he is the ghost, leaving listeners in suspense and laughter.A turning point in the narrative reveals Martin and Whit's trials as they attempt to capture a haunting scene on film. The chaotic and tense atmosphere escalates as comedic errors blend with feelings of fear, particularly as they explore a dark house where a mysterious presence is hinted to exist.
