Today's "all over the place" episode starts off hilariously with "Gomer the bull" and a visit to Andy's Custard. Next is Mary Anne's description of falling on a slippery bathroom floor, added with the discussion of GeneSight, a pharmacogenomic test which analyzes how genes may affect medication outcomes. The GeneSight test is important for understanding genetic variations in your DNA. Results can inform your healthcare provider about how you may break down or respond to certain medications commonly prescribed to treat depression, anxiety, ADHD, and other psychiatric conditions, including dementia and Alzheimer's. www.verandaministries.org www.genesight.com Balcony People by Joyce Landorf Heatherly https://a.co/d/h00Ht0J

    What if laughter could heal division? And what if the key to bridging our most polarized conversations wasn't found in politics—but in poetry, music, and a little bit of Dr. Seuss-style soul?Laughter possesses the remarkable potential to heal divisions, a theme that resonates profoundly in our discourse with Scott Grace, also known as *The Spiritual Dr. Seuss*. This episode invites listeners to contemplate the idea that the essence of bridging our most polarized conversations may reside not in the realm of politics, but rather in the harmonious realms of poetry, music, and a touch of whimsical insight. As we engage with Scott, we delve into his latest endeavor, *Beyond Red and Blue*, which emphasizes the importance of rising above outrage and reconnecting with our shared humanity. We shall explore how spontaneous poetry can dismantle barriers of division, the detrimental effects of blame on societal change, and the imperative of cultivating compassion and curiosity in nurturing the next generation. Join us as we embark on this enlightening journey, poised to inspire profound reflections on unity in a fractured world.Takeaways: The concept of laughter as a means to heal societal division is explored in depth. Scott Grace advocates for the use of poetry and music to bridge polarized conversations. Understanding and curiosity are essential to overcoming blame and fostering compassion. The conversation emphasizes the importance of human connection over political ideologies.

    Female Pelvic Pain and Its Relationship to Emotions & Trauma Dr. Adriana Martí   When sex hurts, experts still have tons of unanswered questions. Since we don't have much accurate data on the various conditions that make intercourse painful, women often suffer in silence.   To help sort this out, Dr. Diana Wiley, a sex therapist, and Dr. Adriana Martí, a pain psychologist, had an informative conversation.   Dr. Martí uses the biopsychosocial model, which has emerged as the most comprehensive framework for understanding pain. Coming from a family of physicians, Dr. Marti understood the value of treating the physical body, but she also saw where the biomedical model falls short. That insight led her to embrace integrative, mind-body approaches to care especially for those living with chronic illness or pain.   The level of a patient's anger has been shown to be an important predictor of chronic pain symptoms, and cultivating compassion has been shown to positively influence how we process emotions, thus reducing the tendency toward negativity, including anger.   Psychological or emotional factors are often involved. Stress, anxiety, depression, guilt, a history of sexual abuse, an upsetting pelvic exam in the past, or relationship troubles can also be at the root of sexual pain. Some women experience vaginismus—an involuntary clenching of vaginal muscles that prevents penetration. Vaginismus is especially common among women who associate their vaginal area with fear or physical trauma.   Both the sex therapist and the health psychologist want to include the patient's partner at some point in the therapeutic process. For many couples who have been dealing with a confusing, undefined issue, there is a buildup of resentment and anger. Men often fear hurting their partner. Pleasure can become pain. It is so easy for couples to blame each other and lose sight of the fact that the real problem is a physiological condition, not their partner.   Dr. Martí also notes the cultural piece: the expectations related to the family. How does the family relate to pain? In one case, the mother and the grandmother both had pelvic pain. Sometimes the woman gets sucked into the “sick role,” which has the benefit of lowered expectations from the patient, but is ultimately not emotionally healthy.   Can pain be unlearned? A study led by Yoni Ashar, PhD, which was published in JAMA Psychiatry, was the first clinical trial of pain reprocessing therapy (PRT). PRT was developed by psychotherapist Alan Gordon to treat primary chronic back pain. Complete details can be found in his book, The Way Out: A Revolutionary, Scientifically Proven Approach to Healing Chronic Pain.   There are additional fixes, such as vaginal estrogen or other medicines or creams. Also, pelvic floor therapy (provided by a specially trained physical therapist) can help control vaginal muscles. “Down training” uses a combination of mindfulness, diaphragmatic breathing, meditation, stretching, and visualization to help calm the nervous system.     The couple in therapy may be asked to do “outercourse” homework (non-penetrative sex). Some couples put too much focus on penetrative sex and neglect other fun, equally pleasurable sexual activities. Outercourse is a great option because it helps women forget there's a goal, so they can just enjoy the feelings and sensations of the ride! It gets both people out of their brains and into their bodies.   Dr. Martí has a private practice where she works with individuals and couples in both English and Spanish. All sessions are done via telehealth. A fifteen-minute phone consultation is the no-charge first step!  www.martipsychologicalservices.com

I'm—very upset— And let go of me. This is aging me. Rapidly. Yay. Listen, I don't know what the fuck I said but— I need a liaison. For what exactly. Anything, apparently. Oh shit. The crazy thing about this one is— Yo Tina Fey is an almost elitist sort of shapeshifter. She's so sub —fuck. [—bliminal with it.] Someone keeps interfering with my signal. They can do that. They can broadcast Saturday night live to the entire world from the top of the World Trade Center, they can do anything. That's perfect— telemetry! Or just— telepathy. In a not so far dimension for continuity piurposes. J.Pierpoint Morgan— No, not yet, Oh okay. THE STRIKE FORCE FIVE have gathered in an office with a collection of other HOSTS. JIMMY FALLON sits leaned back on the couch in an unassuming hoodie, with the hood pulled over his face. He seems younger than usual, and somewhat bored. I knew his hair wasn't falling out anytime soon— —damn those genetics— So still I slowly but carefully salt and peppered each and every streaking strand that sprung forth from his wisdom. Hahaha! Yo. Crazy. Somebody needs to kill this bitch. It's too late. She can't be stopped! No! What! Crazy. She's… too powerful. I agree. I sort of accepted the relative silence in my apartment as if they'd gotten what they wanted— seeing Aliocha's number over and over as a way to succumb eventually to my inherent death— and at least then there would be peace. As it were, I was enjoying my time reading the New Testament Psalms above any of my other reading materials, which included a book on music business and even a portfolio of festival stages; this seemed of no mere coincidence, but as if of course the books were placed in my path within time that i'd find them returning from my radio show–and I did. But more fascinating than any book on the music business, or seduction, or the laws of human nature, or the art of war, was a hotel copy of the new testament, to which I took an immediate liking, with the understanding of this religious texts translations that I supposed writing almost seemingly endlesslessly myself had simplified. It seemed less boring than the last time I'd read it–and then again, the last time i'd read it, it wasn't as deliberately poignant as it sat now in the palm of my hands. I spent more time with it than the other books, although I loved Robert Greene, and even though i'd had the art of seduction on repeat by way of audio book, reading it through now seemed almost disturbing in nature, because on so many levels, there wasn't a time in my life where I could think to that this art didn't apply. Indeed, I was a true romantic, and then had in a way obliged myself to be seduced over and over, if not for the sake of the art. But now, in my own actual sexual prime, despite my cellibacy, nearly leaking the fluidity of sexuality with me wherever I went no matter how hard I tried to mask it …whether anyone wanted to admit it or not, and actually, more often than not I did notice t[o]— To what?! Idk, it just ends. UGHHHHHH. {Enter The Multiverse} [The Festival Project™ ] {Enter The Multiverse} L E G E N D S: ICONS Tales of A Superstar DJ The Secret Life of Sunnï Blū Ascension Deathwish -Ū.

caótica sala de estar.En: In the middle of Christmas, despite the typical summer heat in the south, the family of Beltrán and Isidora gathered in the spacious and chaotic living room.Es: Era el escenario perfecto para un drama familiar: la mesa estaba llena de sillas desiguales alrededor de platos tradicionales que parecían a punto de desbordarse.En: It was the perfect setting for a family drama: the table was filled with mismatched chairs around traditional dishes that seemed about to overflow.Es: Las conversaciones chocaban entre sí, mezclándose con el sonido alegre, pero a veces discordante, de las copas brindando.En: Conversations clashed with one another, mixing with the joyful, yet sometimes discordant, sound of glasses clinking.Es: El ambiente estaba adornado con decoraciones coloridas que intentaban, sin éxito, ocultar la tensión flotante.En: The atmosphere was adorned with colorful decorations that unsuccessfully tried to hide the floating tension.Es: Beltrán, con su característica sonrisa optimista, veía en esta reunión una oportunidad.En: Beltrán, with his characteristic optimistic smile, saw in this gathering an opportunity.Es: Como mago aficionado, esperaba que su espectáculo de magia lograría unir nuevamente a la familia y sanar heridas pasadas provocadas por antiguos desacuerdos.En: As an amateur magician, he hoped his magic show would bring the family together again and heal past wounds caused by old disagreements.Es: El problema era que cada vez que intentaba presentarse, alguna discusión subía de volumen, minando el clima necesario para su magia.En: The problem was that every time he tried to perform, some argument would escalate, undermining the necessary atmosphere for his magic.Es: Isidora, su prima mayor, era práctica y escéptica.En: Isidora, his older cousin, was practical and skeptical.Es: Como botánica, prefería las cosas tangibles y reales, aunque, en el fondo, valoraba los raros momentos de unión familiar.En: As a botanist, she preferred tangible and real things, although deep down, she valued the rare moments of family unity.Es: Aquella noche, ella solo aspiraba a sobrevivir a la reunión sin mucho drama.En: That night, she only hoped to survive the gathering without much drama.Es: Sin embargo, al ver a Beltrán prepararse con entusiasmo para su show, decidió echarle una mano para que no cometiera demasiados desastres.En: However, seeing Beltrán enthusiastically prepare for his show, she decided to lend him a hand so that he wouldn't create too many disasters.Es: "Nada puede salir tan mal", pensó Isidora, ofreciéndole su ayuda.En: "Nothing can go that wrong," thought Isidora, offering her help.Es: Juntos, comenzaron a organizar el acto en medio del jaleo.En: Together, they started organizing the act amidst the commotion.Es: El momento llegó.En: The moment arrived.Es: Beltrán se paró al frente con un abrigo ligeramente gastado, sacó su varita y anunció a todos que iba a llenar la noche de magia.En: Beltrán stood at the front with a slightly worn coat, took out his wand, and announced to everyone that he was going to fill the night with magic.Es: La familia, entre murmullos y cejas levantadas, se detuvo a mirar al joven mago.En: The family, amid murmurs and raised eyebrows, stopped to watch the young magician.Es: El espectáculo comenzó bien.En: The show started well.Es: Beltrán logró una simple desaparición de carta que reunió algunas risas nerviosas y aplausos tibios.En: Beltrán managed a simple card disappearance that gathered some nervous laughs and mild applause.Es: Pero justo cuando todo parecía ir mejor de lo pensado, intentó un truco más elaborado.En: But just when everything seemed to be going better than expected, he attempted a more elaborate trick.Es: La tensión en la sala subía cuando al intentar hacer aparecer algo en un plato vacío, el truco falló.En: The tension in the room rose when, trying to make something appear on an empty plate, the trick failed.Es: La expresión de desconcierto en su rostro era inconfundible.En: The bewildered expression on his face was unmistakable.Es: Isidora, sintiendo que debía intervenir, buscó entre los platos para improvisar.En: Isidora, feeling she needed to step in, searched among the plates to improvise.Es: De repente, su mirada cayó sobre un bol de puré de papas y una sonrisa cómplice se dibujó en su rostro.En: Suddenly, her gaze fell on a bowl of mashed potatoes and a conspiratorial smile appeared on her face.Es: Rápidamente, metió la mano en el puré y, para su sorpresa y la de todos, extrajo un viejo juguete de la infancia que tanto ella como Beltrán habían creído perdido hacía años: un pequeño coche de madera con colores desvaídos.En: Quickly, she stuck her hand into the mash and, to her surprise and everyone else's, pulled out an old childhood toy that both she and Beltrán had believed lost years ago: a small wooden car with faded colors.Es: La sala estalló en carcajadas al ver el juguete cubierto de puré, uniendo a la familia en un inesperado momento de alegría.En: The room burst into laughter at the sight of the toy covered in mash, uniting the family in an unexpected moment of joy.Es: Beltrán, con ojos brillantes, comprendió en ese instante que la magia no residía en trucos perfectos, sino en crear conexiones y risas.En: Beltrán, with bright eyes, realized in that moment that magic didn't lie in perfect tricks, but in creating connections and laughter.Es: Isidora, por su parte, sintió una nueva apreciación por la espontaneidad y el humor, dejando a un lado por un momento su escepticismo.En: Isidora, for her part, felt a newfound appreciation for spontaneity and humor, setting aside her skepticism for a moment.Es: Con las risas flotando en el aire como la más hermosa de las decoraciones navideñas, la familia volvió a charlar, esta vez con historias y recuerdos compartidos.En: With the laughter floating in the air like the most beautiful of Christmas decorations, the family resumed talking, this time with shared stories and memories.Es: Lentamente, parecía que las relaciones comenzaban a curarse, tejidas por el hilo dorado de la risa y la nostalgia.En: Slowly, it seemed that relationships began to heal, woven by the golden thread of laughter and nostalgia.Es: A veces, pensó Isidora, la verdadera magia está en los momentos que nunca planeamos.En: Sometimes, thought Isidora, the true magic is in the moments we never plan.

    A Fine Marriage, Now an Extraordinary Marriage: Bart's Story Bart is a Christian leader. He's the head of a childcare agency working with traumatized children and teens. He's been married for nearly 20 years and has four beautiful kids. And by his own admission? He was tired. Burned out. Irritable. Or, in his words—“crusty.” He wasn't in crisis. His marriage wasn't “on the rocks.” But it wasn't thriving either. And Bart knew something had to change. Christian Leaders Get Tired, Too—But That Doesn't Mean You Stay There One Saturday morning, Bart's wife tried to be playful with him—and he snapped. He didn't mean to. He was just worn out, juggling too many roles, feeling the pressure of leadership, family, and ministry. But his wife's gentle confrontation was a turning point. She didn't yell. She didn't threaten. She just called it what it was. And Bart—rather than shutting down—responded with humility and self-reflection. Not because he had to… But because he wanted to grow. Why “Good Enough” Marriage Isn't the Goal—Even for Ministry Leaders Bart described his marriage as “a 9 on a bad day.” No major fights. No betrayals. No one was threatening to leave. But deep down, he knew something wasn't right. The joy was fading. The connection was inconsistent. And his presence at home was… thin. Too many leaders settle for “fine” because there isn't obvious brokenness. But lack of crisis doesn't mean abundance of health. How One Christian Husband Reconnected With His Wife (and Kids) Bart didn't just learn new tools—he let God change his posture. He took a long, hard look at his own heart. He asked his wife, with full honesty, "Have I made intimacy feel transactional to you?" She said no. But Bart still made changes. He apologized for things from 20 years ago. He went to his kids, one by one, and asked for forgiveness for being emotionally absent. And the impact? Laughter returned. Confidence rose. Connection was rebuilt—at home, where it matters most. When You Lead at Work But Struggle at Home Bart's job requires emotional intelligence, patience, and deep listening. He gives that to kids, to employees, to families in crisis. But when he got home? He was depleted. He admits, “I was giving my best to strangers—not to the people who mattered most.” The CIRQUE listening framework helped him shift. Not just in knowledge—but in behavior. He started seeing his wife again. Not as someone who was “doing fine,” but as someone he was called to serve and cherish. Intention Without Action Won't Heal a Struggling Marriage One of the most striking moments in Bart's story? The first time he walked around the car to open the door for his wife in years. She paused. Surprised. It had been that long. But it wasn't about the door. It was about intentionality. About pursuit. About loving her like the daughter of the King she is. Christian Leaders: Your Marriage Doesn't Have to Be Broken to Be Better Friend, maybe your marriage isn't “bad.” Maybe no one knows how empty or tired you feel. Maybe your congregation thinks everything's fine. But you know. You know you're not showing up the way you want to. You know she deserves more. You know God is calling you deeper. Don't wait for a crisis to choose transformation. Don't wait for regret to become your motivation. Start now. Invest now. Lead your home like Jesus—by going first.

I celebrate the peace in my heart that has allowed me to be non-reactive and non-explosive in some very difficult and high-tension situations…I celebrate the new playful way that we are connecting in the bedroom…I celebrate that my wife is now telling my children that "Dad is different!"

    Varieties of childhood

    Childhood is a special time, a strange time. Children are adored and catered to—they're given their own menus and bedrooms. They're considered delicate and precious, and so we cushion them from every imaginable risk. Kids are encouraged to play, of course—but very often it's under the watchful eye of anxious adults. This anyway is how childhood looks in much of the United States today. But is this they way childhood looks everywhere? Is this the way human childhoods have always been? My guests today are Dr. Dorsa Amir and Dr. Sheina Lew-Levy. Dorsa is an Assistant Professor of Psychology & Neuroscience at Duke University, where she runs the Mind and Culture Lab. Sheina is an Associate Professor of Psychology at Durham University in the UK, where she co-directs the Forager Child Studies research group. Both Sheina and Dorsa have spent much of their careers thinking about how childhoods differ across cultures—and why. In this conversation, I talk with Dorsa and Sheina about their fieldwork with indigenous groups in Ecuador and the Congo, respectively. We discuss the different ways that childhood differs in these places—for instance, in terms of parents' attitudes toward risk, in terms of the social structures and activities in which kids are embedded, and in terms of the freedom that children are granted. We discuss developmental psychology's "WEIRD problem." We talk about about the quasi-autonomous cultures that children create among themselves—sometimes called "peer cultures"—and discuss how these kid-driven cultures end up shaping and benefit the larger community. Along the way, we touch on adult supremacy, adverse childhood experiences, walking the forest and climbing papaya trees, parenting norms, ding dong ditch and "nananabooboo", the pioneering work of the folklorists Iona and Peter Opie, teaching, toys, and the enduring question of what childhood is for.   Alright friends, lots to think about here. On to my conversation with Sheina Lew-Levy and Dorsa Amir. Enjoy!   A transcript of this episode will be posted soon.   Notes and links 9:30 – For an overview of work on how culture shapes motor development, see here. 11:00 – The paper by Dr. Lew-Levy's and a colleague about “walking the forest.” 16:00 – Dr. Amir's TedX talk, ‘How the Industrial Revolution Changed Childhood.' 17:30 – For some of Dr. Amir's work on risk across cultures, see here. 35:00 – For a recent paper by Dr. Lew-Levy and colleagues about the evolution of childhood, see here. 39:00 – The popular article by Ann Gibbons, ‘The Birth of Childhood.' 41:00 – For the idea of the “patriarch hypothesis,” see here. 42:00 – For more on the “WEIRD problem” in developmental psychology, see here. 48:00 – A paper by Dr. Lew-Levy and colleagues about toys in hunter-gatherer groups.

    I found a post that fit exactly with what I did yesterday with one of my best friends. From Seek Wiser (@SeekWiser_), “Proof the best things in life are free: Sunrises, Sunsets, Hugs, Conversations, Love, Waking Up, Nature, Laughter.” The breakfast that I had with one of my best friends, Scott, got me thinking about the fact that I've been through all the items on this list (and more) with him throughout our lives. I've also been blessed to have others be a part of this list too. There are so many other things that are free in life - recognizing them along with being lucky enough to share them with others, is a key to what I think is a very happy & fulfilled life. Going through this list on this episode, really got my emotions going as I'm seeing (again), how blessed I really am. When I connect things like this list to special people in my life, I get inspired & feel a tremendous amount of encouragement.  Scott helped to remind me of both again as I shared some breakfast time with him.  Find those things that are “free” in life & not only connect with them for yourself, but also look to connect them to others in your life too.   Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.
