Send us a textProviders, let's challenge the standard 6-week checkup and the conversation around "default birth control". What if it's not just "standard care" but a MAJOR factor in the rise of postpartum depression and anxiety we're seeing? Is hormonal birth control a silent driver of postpartum depression and anxiety? It's time to connect the dots. New research links hormonal birth control postpartum to increased maternal mental health risks. Understanding the biological reality of postpartum, including postpartum brain rewiring, shows why synthetic hormones disrupt a healing body. This is a call to action for anyone supporting new mothers. For postpartum providers and perinatal mental health professionals focused on holistic support and evidence-based care, this knowledge is essential for informed consent and optimizing postpartum recovery.

They discuss the messy but well-intentioned efforts like David Hogg's DNC initiative, the communication gap with younger voters, and why the information ecosystem is reshaping political engagement.Together, they explore the mechanics of candidate recruitment, debates over ideological litmus tests, and how Run For Something navigates hot-button issues like trans rights and independent candidacies.

What is the New Apostolic Reformation (NAR)? And what does it have to do with conservative political power in the United States and abroad? Leah Payne and Caleb Maskell join Mark Labberton for a deep dive into the emergence and impact of the New Apostolic Reformation—a loosely affiliated global network blending Pentecostal Christian spirituality, charismatic authority, and political ambition. With their combined pastoral experience and scholarly expertise, Payne and Maskell chart the historical, theological, and sociopolitical roots of this Pentecostal movement—from Azusa Street and Latter Rain revivals to modern dominion theology and global evangelicalism. They distinguish the New Apostolic Reformation from the broader Pentecostal and charismatic traditions, and explore the popular appeal, theological complexity, and political volatility of the New Apostolic Reformation. Episode Highlights “Isn't this just conservative political activism with tongues and prophecy and dominion?” “At no point in time in the history of these United States … have Protestants not been interested in having a great deal of influence over public life.” “You can be super nationalistic in Guatemala, in Brazil, in India, and in the United States. … It is a portable form of nationalism.” “They are not moved by appeals to American democracy or American exceptionalism because they have in their mind the end times and the nation of Israel.” “Charismatics and Pentecostals, unlike other forms of American Protestantism … do not have a theological value for democracy.” Main Themes Pentecostalism's history and global influence Charismatic Christianity versus Pentecostalism Defining and explaining the New Apostolic Reformation (NAR) C. Peter Wagner, Lance Hall, and Seven Mountain Mandate Dominion theology, Christian nationalism, and the religious Right Pentecostals and Trump politics Zionism in charismatic theology Vineyard movement, worship music, and intimacy with God Linked Media References About Vineyard USA God Gave Rock and Roll to You: A History of Contemporary Christian Music by Leah Payne The New Apostolic Churches by C. Peter Wagner This Present Darkness by Frank Peretti Atlantic Article: “The Army of God Comes Out of the Shadows” by Stephanie McCrummen Bonhoeffer's America: A Land Without Reformation, by Joel Looper Another Gospel: Christian Nationalism and the Crisis of Evangelical Identity, by Joel Looper Show Notes Leah Payne defines Pentecostalism as “a form of American revivalism” William J. Seymour Marked by interracial desegregated worship and spiritual “fireworks” like tongues and prophecy Mystical experiences of God Desegregation and physically touching one another in acts of miraculous healing The Azusa Street Revival (1906) identified as a global catalyst for Assemblies of God denomination There is no founding theological figure, unlike Luther or Calvin Caleb Maskell emphasizes Pentecostalism's roots in “a founding set of experiences,” not a founding theological figure “Limits to what makes a church” Lack of ecclesiological clarity leaves Pentecostalism open to both renewal and fragmentation Leah highlights Pentecostalism as “a shared experience … a shared series of practices.” “Holy Rollers” and being “slain in the Spirit” “A different way of knowing” “Christians are made through an encounter with Jesus.” The global “charismatic movement” and how it has had cross-denominational Influence “Charismatic” was a mid-twentieth-century term for Spirit-led practices arising within mainline Protestant and Roman Catholic traditions Charismatic means “gifted” or “being given gifts” “‘Charismatic' has typically been a more inclusive word than ‘Pentecostal.'” Emphasis on personal spiritual gifts and intimate worship styles “They are not respecters of institutions.” Figures like Oral Roberts and Amy Semple McPherson were “too big” for denominational constraints “Too-bigness” as driven by both an over-inflated ego and spiritual mysticism Frederick Buechner: “The place God calls you to is the place where your deep gladness and the world's deep hunger meet.” Spellbound, by Molly Worthen (see Conversing episode 212) What are the origins and key ideas of the New Apostolic Reformation (NAR)? New Apostolic Reformation: “a form of institutionalized charismatic identity that builds on grassroots consensus.” “NAR” coined by C. Peter Wagner at Fuller Seminary in the 1990s Wagner promoted post-denominationalism and “reality-based” church governance centred on individual charismatic gifts Emerged from a “larger soup” of charismatic ideas—often practiced before being systematized. Closely tied to the “Seven Mountain Mandate”: that Christians should influence key societal sectors—family, religion, education, media, entertainment, business, and government The role of dominion theology and political alignment “The convergence of egos, the convergence of ethos … is a natural thing to see emerging.” “Dominion is really just two or three logical steps from an obsession with cultural relevance.” Payne sees dominionism as a Pentecostal-flavoured version of a broader conservative political strategy. “Charismatics and Pentecostals are everywhere … so we should expect them on the far right.” Many deny the NAR label even as they operate in its mode. ”When Bob Dylan's in your church, suddenly your church is relevant, whether you like it or not.” Defining “Dominionism” “Dominion is really just two or three logical steps from an obsession with cultural relevance. Cultural relevance says church should fit—not prophetically, but should fit all but seamlessly—into modes of culture that people are already in.” What are the “Seven Mountains of Culture”? Family, religion, education, media, entertainment, business, and government—”the world would go better if Christians were in charge of each of those arenas.” “At no point in time in the history of these United States and the history of European settlers in the new world have Protestants not been interested in having a great deal of influence over public life.” Trump, Zionism, and global Pentecostal nationalism Christian nationalism versus religious Right “They are not moved by appeals to American democracy. … They think the nation of Israel is the nation of all nations.” “Isn't this just conservative political activism with tongues and prophecy and dominion?” Anti-institutional and anti-structural How Trump seeks power and ego affirmation Christian theocratic rule? ”It may simply be a part of what it is to be a Christian is to say, at some level, within the spheres that I'm given authority in, I ought to have the right kind of influence, whatever it is.” “ I think what's scary about the moment that we're in right now is in fact the chaos.” A book about Donald Trump—God's Chaos Candidate, by Lance Wall ”The beliefs in divine prophecy are so widespread that they transcend partisanship.” Black Pentecostalism: immune to the charms of Trump and populist conservatives Trump's Zionist overtures strategically captured charismatic loyalty The rise of global Pentecostal nationalism in countries like India, Brazil, and Guatemala parallels US patterns. “They don't actually care long-term about American democracy.” “They are not moved by appeals to American democracy or American exceptionalism because they have in their mind the end times and the nation of Israel.” Prosperity gospel Dominionism and the Roman Catholic “doctrine of discovery” The gospel of Christ as “sorting power” “It is a portable form of nationalism.” Concerns about power, order, and eschatology Mark Labberton reflects on Fuller Seminary's controversial role in NAR's intellectual development. Payne critiques the equation of widespread Pentecostal practices with far-right dominionism. “What's scary … is the chaos. And a number of people associated with NAR have celebrated that.” NAR theology often prioritizes divine chaos over institutional order. Warnings against super-biblical apostolic authority and spiritual authoritarianism. Pentecostalism beyond politics “There's a vivid essentialism—make everything great and all the nations will gather.” Vineyard worship as a counterweight to dominionism—emphasizing intimacy and mystical union with Christ. “That emphasis on Jesus as a friend … is a really beautiful image of God.” Vineyard music helped export a gentle, intimate charismatic spirituality.

About Caleb Maskell Caleb Maskell is the associate national director of theology and education for Vineyard USA. Born in London, he immigrated with his family to New Jersey in 1986, at the age of nine. Caleb has been involved in leadership in the Vineyard movement for twenty-five years. After spending a gap year at the Toronto Airport Vineyard School of Ministry in 1995, he went to the University of Chicago to study theology, philosophy, and literature in the interdisciplinary undergraduate Fundamentals program. While there, he joined the core planting team of the Hyde Park Vineyard Church, where he served as a worship leader, a small group leader, a setter-up of chairs, and whatever else Rand Tucker asked him to do. After college, full of questions that had emerged from the beautiful collision of serious academic study and the practical realities of church planting, Caleb enrolled in the MDiv program at Yale Divinity School. For four years, he immersed himself in the study of theology, church history, and Scripture, while also leading worship and working with middle school and high school youth groups. After graduating in 2004, he worked for three years as the associate director of the Jonathan Edwards Center at Yale University. In 2007, along with his wife Kathy and their friends Matt and Hannah Croasmun, Caleb planted Elm City Vineyard Church in New Haven, Connecticut. That year, he also began a PhD program at Princeton University, focusing on the history of American religion, with an additional emphasis in African American studies. After moving to Manhattan for four years while Kathy went to seminary, the Maskells ended up in suburban Philadelphia, where Caleb completed his PhD while teaching regularly at Princeton Theological Seminary, and serving as the worship pastor at Blue Route Vineyard Church. Since 2010, Caleb has led the Society of Vineyard Scholars, which exists to foster and sustain a community of theological discourse in and for the Vineyard movement. Caleb is passionate about developing leaders and institutions that will help to produce a healthy, courageous, and hospitable future for the church in the twenty-first century. Caleb and Kathy now live with their two kids, Josiah and Emmanuelle, in the heart of Denver, where Kathy pastors East Denver Vineyard Church.

E223: Transition Rule #4 – Past Success ≠ Future Success Why do we say, "Past success does not equal future success?" This episode is for those transitioning JMOs who have experienced past success in the military and are working towards business leadership careers. Also, it is for those who have tasted success in the military and who want to avoid missteps in the transition. I teamed up with Tim Kirchner, and together we cover the following topics: Ego vs. Authentic-Self The ways past success can create a sense of comfort, control, and security. How it can make us feel like we've "arrived". How it can cloud our judgment and decision-making skills. Different ways we naturally tend to lose focus and get caught up in urgent and daily tasks, and how those things can get in the way of our goals. I share my experience and how I struggled with an unhealthy belief of "being owed" something in my next chapter. Being clear about your desired result and the value of seeking guidance and adopting a growth mindset, regardless of experience level. Past success is a very strong indicator of future potential. Encouragement on not losing focus, making the transition a priority, and how to stay a student in the transition. That's why Transition Rule #4 is: Past Success ≠ Future Success—not unless you change how you think and prepare. What Does “Past Success Does Not Equal Future Success” Mean? In the military, many leaders have led teams, made critical decisions, and delivered strong results. Success often followed a clear structure and defined roles. However, the business world operates differently. Past achievements don't automatically lead to future success in a new environment. There are two challenges that frequently show up during the transition: 1. EgoSome assume their accomplishments will speak for themselves. Yet, most hiring managers don't fully understand military roles. It becomes important to connect the dots and clearly show how experience applies. 2. Lack of FocusTransition preparation often gets delayed. Busy schedules take over, and planning gets pushed aside until it's nearly too late. Where Do These Challenges Appear Most Often? In Interviews:Even high-performing JMOs have received feedback such as, “Didn't show enough business understanding.” In these cases, the leadership skills were there—but the candidate hadn't prepared in the way business leaders expected. During Preparation:Some officers in our Development & Preparation Program (DPP) initially struggled to stay on track. On the other hand, those who began early and followed a clear plan arrived prepared—and it showed in their interviews. Why This Rule Matters Success in one setting doesn't guarantee success in another. Military leadership typically involves giving orders and following a chain of command. In contrast, business leadership calls for influence, adaptability, and quick decision-making. To thrive, adapting to new expectations is essential. The Right Mindset Stay Focused:Clear career goals help guide daily decisions. Every step forward should move closer to that goal. Stay Hungry and Humble:A learning mindset is critical. Seeking advice from those who understand both military and business environments can make a big difference. Staying hungry to grow and humble enough to learn creates long-term success. What to Do Next Start early.Don't wait to begin preparing. A strong plan—beyond just a resume—builds clarity and confidence. The earlier the process begins, the better the outcome. Simply put, early action leads to better results. The Big Takeaway Military experience builds a strong foundation, but it's only the beginning. Growth in business comes to those who remain coachable, curious, and committed to learning. That mindset earns the next success. Let's Take the Next Step Together If you realize past success does not equal future success,
Dane Carter: Addiction's Grip and Lack of Hope | The Hopeaholics PodcastIn this powerful episode of The Hopeaholics Podcast, guest Dane Carter delivers an unflinching account of his transformation from a life consumed by addiction and a 13-year cycle of incarceration to one of sobriety, purpose, and impact. Beginning at age 13 with juvenile detention for fighting and drug use, Dane's path spiraled through prison terms, culminating in a desperate struggle with fentanyl and meth, marked by a high-speed chase and weeks holed up in a San Luis Obispo motel room. A life-changing anonymous call from a Corona, California, detox center offered him a scholarship for treatment, sparking a four-year sober journey that includes building a fitness and mindset coaching business and finding love with his fiancée, met during rehab. From surviving a motorcycle crash just 12 days into detox to narrowly avoiding a life sentence after a violent New Year's Eve incident, Dane's story is a testament to resilience and divine intervention. Emphasizing that “your past does not define you—your next move does,” he shares how rejecting a victim mindset and embracing activities like gym workouts fueled his recovery. Now dedicated to helping others through his platform, Dane's raw honesty and actionable insights make this episode a compelling beacon of hope for anyone navigating addiction or seeking redemption.#TheHopeaholics #redemption #recovery #AlcoholAddiction #AddictionRecovery #wedorecover #SobrietyJourney #MyStory #RecoveryIsPossible #Hope #wedorecover Join our patreon to get access to an EXTRA EPISODE every week of ‘Off the Record', exclusive content, a thriving recovery community, and opportunities to be featured on the podcast. https://patreon.com/TheHopeaholics Follow the Hopeaholics on our Socials:https://www.instagram.com/thehopeaholics https://linktr.ee/thehopeaholicsBuy Merch: https://thehopeaholics.myshopify.comVisit our Treatment Centers: https://www.hopebythesea.comIf you or a loved one needs help, please call or text 949-615-8588.

A survey from the Ireland Chapter of the Project Management Institute (PMI) shows that more than half (56%) of project managers believe remote or hybrid working has a positive impact on project success rates. The research involving over 100 project management professionals also found that the average cost of failed projects during the last 12 months was approximately €653K - down 11% from last year's estimated cost of failed projects at €710K. Conducted by the Ireland Chapter of PMI, the survey was carried out to tie in with its annual national conference, Navigating The Next Wave, in association with EY. The event explored the next wave of project management innovation and impact and featured Dr Lolly Mancey, Anthropologist, Futurist, and Innovation Advocate as keynote speaker. The latest survey from the Ireland Chapter of PMI also revealed that remote or hybrid working was among the leading sustainability practices within the sector. The others were choosing sustainable suppliers and partners (20%), waste management practices (18%), sustainability KPIs (12%), and measurement of carbon emissions during projects (11%). On the topic of sustainability, 55% of project management professionals say it is a key factor when outlining project delivery models. Furthermore, 76% revealed that companies are more interested in sustainability compared to a year ago and over a third (35%) view it as very important in terms of managing projects. However, despite the perceived positive impact of remote or hybrid working on project success rates and sustainability efforts, some 47% of project managers said that they are expected to be in the office more now compared to a year ago. Furthermore, the research found that the biggest challenge when it comes to managing remote or hybrid teams concerns communication issues - cited by almost half (48%) of respondents. Lack of collaboration, scheduling conflicts, lack of team culture, and lack of visibility were the other leading challenges in this regard. Perhaps unsurprisingly, power skills (including communication, problem-solving, collaborative leadership and strategic thinking) were deemed to be the most crucial for project managers in the future. Peter Glynne, President of the Ireland Chapter of PMI, said: "Project management across Ireland is fast evolving with the ambition, scale and complexity of projects ever increasing. Project management professionals need to be able to navigate this next wave of innovation - something which we discussed at our annual conference. That means adopting workstyles and deploying technologies that enable the sector to drive success, manage costs, and support sustainability. It also means addressing any barriers and upskilling for the future, otherwise the potential to drive real impact for Ireland through ambitious projects will be lost." Jennifer Ryan, EY Ireland Transformation Delivery Business Consulting Partner, said: "EY were delighted to once again be title sponsors for the PMI National Conference. At EY, we understand that project management is on the cusp of transformational change with the introduction of technological change and new work practices. As such, we're delighted that this year's conference highlighted the transformative potential of AI, the importance of sustainability, and the future of work. At EY, we recognise that organisations and Transformation Management Offices (TMOs) are already adapting in response to these three themes, particularly as they realign the capabilities that they require to maximise the efficiency of the delivery of transformation."

I've been asked this question a lot lately…“Why didn't network marketing EXPLODE from the pandemic and recession, like so many expected? Why are we seeing declines instead of massive growth?”Let's get into it…There's no single reason — it's a combo of things. Yes, the pandemic created a surge for many companies in 2020–2021. But what people don't talk about is that growth was artificial.It was more of a sugar rush than it was sustainable momentum. People were home.They had more time.More stimulus checks.Ecommerce in general saw record-breaking numbers.But then what happened?Life returned to “normal,” attention spans shrank, wallets tightened, and expectations changed.Here's what I believe are the top reasons we've seen double-digit declines across many product-based companies:1. Artificial Pandemic BumpMany companies grew from a moment, not a movement. Growth wasn't built on deep belief or long-term behavior—it was built on convenience and timing.2. Lack of InnovationA lot of companies got lazy during the good times. They stopped innovating. Compensation plans didn't evolve. Products didn't stay ahead of the curve. Messaging got stale. And when consumer priorities shifted, companies weren't ready. This is a GENERALIZATION. I know many of you did evolve.3. We're in the “Options Era”Let's say someone used to buy 100 things. Now their budget forces them to cut back. 10–30% of those go first. Did your product make the cut?Uber. Airbnb. Affiliate. Creator economy. Ecom dropshipping. All legit options now. If we don't create real, unique value, we lose.Those options weren't avail in 2008.4. Poor Customer RetentionMost companies still don't do a great job reselling the customer after the sale. The fortune isn't just in the follow-up—it's in the retention experience.5. False ExpectationsPeople heard “work from home” and thought “easy income.” They weren't ready for rejection, consistency, and leadership development. So they quit early.Lazy on Leadership DevelopmentWe stopped developing leaders because it was so easy!Companies and leaders have been back in the trenches. Some for the last 2 years but you don't just plant a seed and expect a tree to grow the next day. It takes time to see the fruits of your labor. We are starting to see some of those results already and we will continue to see more. This is the WEEDING out season.Listen up—go to www.rankandbanksystem.com right now. Why? Because if your network marketing check isn't where you want it, this is the fix. It's my 30-day Rank & Bank System—daily trainings from me, daily challenges that actually move the needle, and accountability that keeps you in the game.

When a man says he doesn't care, it can stem from various underlying emotions and situations. Here are a few possibilities: Emotional Distance: He might be emotionally checked out from the situation or relationship. This could arise from feeling overwhelmed, hurt, or disengaged. Defense Mechanism: Saying "I don't care" can be a defense mechanism to avoid vulnerability or confrontation. It might be easier to appear indifferent than to express deeper emotions like hurt or anger. Lack of Interest: In some cases, it could genuinely reflect a lack of interest or concern. Let's dive in, we are going deep!

Concerns have been raised about how little youth homelessness has been addressed in Budget 2025, as well as how funding is being allocated, that will impact vulnerable rangatahi and tamariki.

News and Editorial Director and Monday Wire Host, Joel, spoke to Aaron Hendry - the co-founder and general manager at Kickback; an organisation aimed at tackling youth homelessness, about Budget 2025, and how youth homelessness should have been addressed in the Budget.

Send Steve a Text MessageEvery guitarist knows that dreaded feeling of hitting a wall—practicing regularly but seeing no real progress. In this candid discussion, Steve Stein from Guitar Zoom Academy tackles the frustrating phenomenon of guitar plateaus head-on, offering practical wisdom that can transform your playing journey.Steve breaks down the primary causes of plateaus with refreshing clarity. The culprits? Lack of structure, where random YouTube tutorials create a disjointed learning experience. Ineffective repetition, where players go through the motions without truly focusing on improvement. Absence of feedback, leaving players unable to identify their technical blind spots. And the comfort zone trap—the tendency to stick with what we already know rather than challenging ourselves with new material.What makes this episode particularly valuable is Steve's no-nonsense approach to breaking through these barriers. He emphasizes the need for clear, specific goals rather than vague aspirations. He advocates for focused practice sessions where quality trumps quantity. And perhaps most importantly, he highlights the transformative power of community and feedback—those "aha moments" that can only come from interaction with more experienced players who can spot what you're missing.Whether you've been playing for months or decades, this episode delivers the wake-up call many guitarists need. As Steve says, "There's no magic pill here. You have to do the work." But with the right structure, focus, and guidance, that work becomes infinitely more rewarding.

This timely story that teaches kids the importance of respecting history, traditions, and each other in an increasingly divided America. But this episode doesn't stop there.

Episode Highlights: Julie Banderas explains how A Monumental Mistake teaches kids to respect history and warns of the dangers of erasing America's past. A breakdown of how Democrat insiders and media elites conspired to cover up Biden's decline, and why they're scrambling to rewrite the narrative. Why trust in journalism has collapsed, and how the media's self-inflicted wounds have exposed a deeper crisis in America.

Discussion of its ethical and environmental claims as hollow, with concerns about engineered scarcity and dependence on conglomerates. Mentions the unappetizing nature of lab-grown products like the “world's largest cultivated chicken nugget.”01:13:29 - 01:17:16: Montana's Ban on Warrantless Data PurchasesMontana's Senate Bill 282 prohibits law enforcement from buying personal data (e.g., geolocation, financial records) without a warrant, closing the data broker loophole. Critique of government's data buying/selling practices, with DMVs profiting millions (e.g., Florida: $77M, California: $52M in 2017).01:19:55 - 01:26:01: Meta's Facial Recognition Glasses and Surveillance RisksMeta plans to integrate facial recognition into Ray-Ban smart glasses, enabling real-time identification of passersby, raising severe privacy concerns.
