Join me for a fascinating chat with nutritionist Bilge MacPhee as we explore the power of food, the truth about bariatric surgery, and why ultra-processed foods are designed to keep us hooked. Bilge MacPhee is a Wellington-based nutritionist with a background in biological sciences and human nutrition. Her holistic approach to health is deeply influenced by her Mediterranean roots, emphasising the connection between food and disease. She specialises in bariatric nutrition, supporting patients before and after weight loss surgery. Key Topics Discussed Bilge's Journey into Nutrition Growing up in Germany with Turkish heritage, food played a central role in daily life. Inspired by her grandmother's belief in the healing power of food. Transitioned from biological sciences to nutrition, developing a passion for holistic health. Bariatric Surgery: What It Is & Who It's For A life-changing operation for those struggling with severe metabolic health issues. Not a quick fix but a tool for patients who have exhausted other weight-loss methods. Involves a rigorous pre-surgery assessment, including consultations with a nutritionist, psychologist, and surgeon. Common Misconceptions About Bariatric Surgery "It's the easy way out" – In reality, it requires significant lifestyle changes and commitment. "It's a waste of taxpayer money" – Research shows it reduces long-term healthcare costs by preventing conditions like diabetes and heart disease. "People regain weight because they lack willpower" – Success is often tied to access to proper post-surgery support. The Role of Food & Addiction Bilge challenges the term "food addiction," arguing that ultra-processed foods are not ‘food' and chemically engineered to be addictive. The food industry, like the tobacco industry, designs products to manipulate cravings and create dependency. Nutrient-dense, whole foods do not trigger addiction in the same way as processed foods. Post-Surgery Challenges & The Importance of Support Patients must learn new eating habits, such as mindful chewing and portion control. Emotional and psychological adjustments are key to long-term success. Those who attend follow-up care and support programs tend to have the best outcomes. Dangers of Overseas Bariatric Surgery Cheaper options in countries like Turkey and Mexico may lack the necessary post-surgery care. Without ongoing nutritional and psychological support, patients are at a higher risk of complications and weight regain.

Craig Hemke, Editor of TF Metals Report, joins us to discuss a number of macroeconomic factors from the revised GDP estimate lower, the weakness in manufacturing, tariff policies, sticky inflation, and the ever-increasing US debt issue that are creating the stagflationary environment of desperation in front of a potential recession and the impetus from this administration to make some big financial change... and it may involve gold. There has been so much news circulating lately from the Trump administration that has financial media speculating about the potential to revalue assets on the US balance sheet, possibly including the price gold is valued at. There are opinion pieces citing that all the tariffs going into place; and that they may be more than just a bargaining chip. Some outlets and pundits have proposed the real motivation behind these tariffs is that they are actually a way to bring funds into the federal government through that form of taxation, which could allow for faster debt repayment or even the formation of a sovereign wealth fund. The debate on the sovereign wealth fund comes down to where the necessary money will actually come from to create it. Then as far as what to buy with the sovereign wealth fund, many are proposing that it could include either gold, energy assets, Greenland, or even bitcoin. Craig then touches up the proposed idea from Judy Shelton back in 2018, which is circulating once again, where the US could sell long-dated 50-year or 100-year bonds that are indexed or redeemable in gold to make them more attractive. With so many ideas being thrown out as potential solutions, it does have many investors wondering if this administration is on the cusp of announcing some radical financial proposal. He points out that most of the ideas are very bullish for the precious metals. Click here to visit Craig's website – TF Metals Report

In other words, it's anything but boring in Boring, and today we have the story to prove it.

Beyond SEO: The Seven Stages of Marketing Success How Perception Shapes Marketing (More Than Facts Do) Episode 244 (George is based in the Toronto area) In this conversation we explore: The concept of holistic digital marketing and how it differs from traditional marketing approaches. The seven stages of the customer journey and why businesses should focus beyond conversion. The role of client advocacy and how turning customers into brand ambassadors reduces acquisition costs. Why marketing is both an art and a science and how to balance creativity with data-driven decisions. Common mistakes businesses make in marketing and how to align strategies with business goals. How AI is changing digital marketing and why human creativity still matters. The importance of emotional triggers in marketing and how psychology influences buying decisions. The power of perception in marketing and why it can be more influential than facts. The pitfalls of generic outreach and how personalized messaging improves response rates. How to design a marketing strategy that starts with outcomes rather than tactics. About our guest, George Arabian: George has over 25 years experience in marketing starting with his first website in 1996 when the Internet was in it's infancy. George is the founder and CEO of NVISION, one of Canada's top digital marketing agencies. NVISION is known for combining consulting and executive while focusing on lead generation and brand awareness for mid-market B2B clients in manufacturing, professional services and technology. Learn more about NVISION here https://nvision.co/ Follow George Arabian on Linkedin here https://www.linkedin.com/in/georgearabian/ ----- Key Learning Points Holistic Digital Marketing Defined Goes beyond omnichannel strategies to focus on the full customer journey. Involves digital touchpoints that engage prospects from awareness to advocacy. The Seven Stages of the Customer Journey Awareness → Consideration → Conversion → Engagement → Adoption → Retention → Advocacy. Many businesses stop at conversion, missing out on advocacy benefits. The Power of Client Advocacy The best customers are those who promote you. Encouraging referrals and testimonials lowers acquisition costs. Marketing is Both Art and Science Science: Understanding algorithms, analytics, and user behavior. Art: Crafting compelling messages, visuals, and emotional appeals. Why Most Businesses Don't Know If Their Marketing Works Many invest in tactics without tracking real business outcomes. Successful marketing must align with company goals, not just vanity metrics. AI's Role in Digital Marketing AI is a tool, not a replacement for authentic messaging. It can enhance efficiency but lacks human creativity and emotional depth. Emotional Triggers Drive Marketing Success People buy based on emotions, not logic. Using words and imagery that resonate with customers increases engagement. Personalization and Perception Matter More Than Facts The way customers feel about a brand determines loyalty more than product specs. Example: Converse sending personalized birthday discounts builds advocacy. The Pitfalls of Generic Outreach Cold, AI-generated LinkedIn messages and impersonal pitches fail. Authenticity and research in outreach make a difference. Marketing Should Start with Outcomes, Not Tactics Instead of asking, “Do I need SEO?” businesses should ask, “What is my goal?” Clear objectives help marketing agencies design effective strategies. ----- ----more---- Your Intended Message is the podcast about how you can boost your career and business success by honing your communication skills.

Faith involves *consistency. By Pastor George Lehman Consistency: It's the jewel worth wearing; it's the anchor worth securing; it's the thread worth weaving; it's a battle worth winning.” - Charles Swindoll *consistency = stability, to change you go forward not backwards, steadfast to the same principles Inconsistency – when your words and actions don't align. James 1:18-25 (NIV) – 18 He chose to give us birth through the word of truth, that we might be a kind of first fruits of all he created. 19 My dear brothers, take note of this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry, 20 for human anger does not bring about the righteous life that God desires.21 Therefore, get rid of all moral filth and the evil that is so prevalent, and humbly accept the word planted in you, which can save you. 22 Do not merely listen to the word and so deceive yourselves. *Do what it says. 23 Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it says is like a man who looks at his face in a mirror 24 and, after looking at himself, goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like. 25 But the man who looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues to do this, not forgetting what he has heard, but doing it—he will be blessed in what he does. *Do what it says = Like Putting a password in your computer but never pressing enter, it will never open the programs. True faith is characterized by Knowing Christ. Sowing consistency True faith starts with knowing Christ as our Saviour. Ephesians 2:8-9 (NIV) – 8 For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— 9 not by works, so that no one can boast. Our best offer was… Ephesians 2:1-2 (NIV) – As for you, you were dead in your transgressions and sins, 2 in which you used to live when you followed the ways of this world and of the ruler of the kingdom of the air, the spirit who is now at work in those who are disobedient. You are not born a Christian - you must be born again. Then our true faith involves sowing consistency in our lives. This consistency manifests itself in our talk and our walk – our conversations and our conduct. This is when consistency begins to become a reality. If we are going to be a credible witness of Christ to the world… …we must not only genuinely know Him; we must also be consistent in living in a way that honours Him. Consistent in our talk. The mark of genuine Christianity is having one's conversations consistent with biblical standards and Christian beliefs. James encouraged the church to listen more than we speak. Let your life do the talking. Proverbs 10:19 (NIV) – When words are many, sin is not absent, but he who holds his tongue is wise. Jesus gave us this warning: Matthew 12:36-37 (NIV) – 36 But I tell you that men will have to give account on the day of judgment for every careless word they have spoken. 37 For by your words you will be acquitted, and by your words you will be condemned.” Genuine Christian living demands that we be cautious in our conversations and that our words are consistent with God's word and character. James admonishes us: James 1:21 (NIV) – Therefore, get rid of all moral filth and the evil that is so prevalent, and humbly accept the word planted in you, which can save you. Although God chooses us and calls us to Himself, there is something for us to do. We are to take off our old coats of sin and strip away all filth. You can't keep playing in the mud when God has taken you out of it. James was writing to believers like you and me who already know Christ. Knowing and representing Jesus, we need to be consistent in our conversations as well as our conduct. James never held back to make his point. That if we are going to show the world a credible Christ then… …we must know Christ and sow consistency in our lives. Consistent in our walk. This is some of James' most famous and most repeated words. “Be doers of the word and not hearers only.” Then comes a promise: James 1:25b -“He who is not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work, this one will be blessed in what he does”. My desire is that I would rather see people “DO” one sermon than hear a hundred of them. Consistency is in the DOING not just in the HEARING. Like: How did you learn to ride a bike ? By reading a manual Watching others ride Listening to instructions about keeping your balance No! You'll never learn to ride a bike until you get on it and do it over and over. James likened the one who only hears God's word, but does not do it to… “A man observing his natural face in a mirror; for he observes himself, goes away and immediately forgets what kind of a man he was.” His message is all too clear. A mirror doesn't lie – it tells the truth. The Bible is like a mirror, when we look into it, we see ourselves as we really are in God's eyes. Not what we say we are or who others might think we are. Have you been looking in the mirror of the Bible lately? Not just a passing glance. See yourself in: Psalm 139:23-24 (NIV) - 23 Search me, God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. 24 See if there is any offensive way in me and lead me in the way everlasting. James spoke of one who every day opens the Word and looks intently into it… The result is a “Blessed life in what he does”. E.g. We are not blessed in our stewardship and tithing by studying what the bible teaches us, but in doing it. He challenged us to: James 1:21 – Receive with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls. James must have had Jesus' word in mind. Luke 11:28 (NLT) – Jesus replied, “But even more blessed are all who hear the word of God and put it into practice.” When we humbly receive God's word in our hearts, it has a supernatural way of leading us to… “Be doers of the word and not hearers only”. True faith involves not just knowing Christ but also sowing consistency between what we read and hear and our conversations and our conduct Close: 2 Thessalonians 3:13 (Amp) – And as for you, brethren, do not become weary or lose heart in doing right [but continue in well doing without weakening].

Gus Clemens on Wine explores and explains the world of wine in simple, humorous, fun posts
This is the weekly columnWine labels and wine reviews may include various references to wine blending. Some are specific and informative. Others are distinctions without a difference. Let's explore the most common blending terms.• Blend. Broadest term. It includes combining various fruits or vinifications to create, develop, or enhance a wine using more than one grape variety and/or vintage. It includes growing and fermenting different varieties together, blending grapes immediately after or years after harvest, combining various vintages, combining wines fermented using different yeast clones, fermenting techniques, and aging regimens.• Field blend. Mixture of varieties that are grown, harvested, and fermented together.• Non-vintage. Involves blending grapes from different years. This is designed to reduce vagaries of different vintages to produce wine true to a distinct house style, ensuring consumers they will enjoy a consistent experience. Non-vintage is very common in Champagnes, Porto, and sherry. It can include blending of different varieties, but also a single variety from different vintages.• Assemblage. Blending of vinified wines before bottling. This term often is used in Bordeaux and Champagne. Term may have been coined by 17th-century monk-winemaker Dom Pérignon.• Marriage. Synonym for assemblage. A combination of wines blended before bottling.• Meritage. Portmanteau created to designate high-quality American wines that pay homage to Bordeaux blends. It combines “merit” and “heritage” and rhymes with “heritage.” It is not a French word with the pronunciation of the last syllable sounding like “garage.” Red meritage must be a blend of at least two varieties—cabernet sauvignon, merlot, cabernet franc, malbec, petit verdot, St. Macaire, gros verdot, or carmenère. White meritage must be a blend of at least two varieties—sauvignon blanc, sémillon, or muscadelle du Bordelais. American winemakers must follow strict guidelines to use the term.• Cuvée. All-purpose term with no regulated definition. A cuvée is wine made from a blend of different grapes, vineyards, or vintages. Basically, another word for blend.• Coupage. Another synonym for assemblage, except can have a negative connotation when it describes a wine were other wines were added just to increase the quantity of the wine.Tasting notes• M.

The Simple Sophisticate - Intelligent Living Paired with Signature Style
"The confidence to dare to be simple." —Monty Don To be simple is to knowingly let go of what is not necessary and wisely keep, nourish and invest in what is. Gardens in many ways are a wonderful analogy for living well because they take time to mature into their full potential, and it isn't guaranteed that they will, but if they do, it is because the gardener had the foresight, patience and clarity to know what would be of value to invest in today. Albert Einstein is attributed with saying, “Make everything as simple as possible, but not simpler.” To know where that line is, because it will be different for each of us, is to know ourselves as well as understand the pressures of the world with keen awareness and insight. Such knowledge takes time and conscious effort to gain. In daring to be simple, we bet on ourselves, care for ourselves and without guarantee, invest in what is harmonious to our ear, letting it become a priority while not be distracted or drained by the rest. On the category page in TSLL's archives for all of the Simplicity themed posts, I share that “The value of True Simplicity is that it fully lets the light in so that you can see and explore the depths of a life's full gifts and beauty.”In more concrete terms, is the condition or quality of being easy to understand. As it pertains to living well, when we understand how to live our lives well, making decisions becomes far easier because of our gained clarity about what nourishes us and the life that we wish to live. In today's post/episode, let's explore how we dare to be simple in such a way that enhances the quality of our lives. How does it show up? What does it look like? What behavior, mannerisms, ways of life embody being simple to the degree that exhibits living with contentment? Explore the Show Notes on TSLL blog: https://thesimplyluxuriouslife.com/podcast386

“…Are you ready for it?” No but really, are you? Today we're talking rhetorical questions. Why does Taylor use them? Does she use them expecting an answer? Are those a rhetorical question?

A rhetorical question is an inquiry that ends in a question mark but is asked for effect rather than to elicit an answer. It's often used in persuasive writing but is also common in everyday conversation. Types of Rhetorical Questions: Anthypophora (hypophora): Involves asking a question in order to answer it immediately. In our animal studies episode, Jenn asked, “Did I make this song about something that personally interests me? Sure did” Epiplexis: A rhetorical device in which one asks a question in order to admonish rather than receive an answer. Think Michael Scott, “why are you the way that you are?” Erotesis: Positions the question in a way that elicits a strong reaction, either in agreement or rejection. However, this type of rhetorical question typically anticipates a negative response. it's usually impossible to contradict.”How can segregation exist in the true Body of Christ?” - MLK *** Episode Highlights: [01:20] What are rhetorical questions?
