In this episode, Lex chats with Cactus Raazi — CEO Americas at B2C2, one of the original and largest institutional market makers in digital assets, serving roughly 1,500 institutions and pricing across more than 40 exchanges globally. They discuss what a market maker actually does, how balance sheet and signal generation underpin roughly $1 billion a day of stablecoin flow at B2C2, and why the two extremes of crypto market making - riskless principal aggregation versus proprietary alpha - produce very different client outcomes that buyers rarely understand. Cactus explains B2C2's 18-month bet that the Circle-versus-Tether debate would give way to a multi-issuer world, the launch of its PENNY product for instant zero-cost cross-stablecoin swaps, and they explore why programmability is the next frontier for digital dollars, why US capital markets have almost no structure for funding genuine risk-taking businesses, and whether the current combination of scale, speed, and complexity makes this the hardest investing environment Wall Street has ever faced. NOTABLE DISCUSSION POINTS: Market makers aren't a homogeneous category, and clients pay for the difference. At one extreme, a market maker is essentially a riskless agent - aggregating prices across 40+ exchanges and quoting on top with no real view. At the other extreme, a market maker is a proprietary quant shop running alpha signals on horizons from seconds to days, and the price you get is heavily conditioned by where the signal says the asset is going. B2C2 sits in the middle, partly because its public-company parent (SBI) constrains risk appetite. The implication for institutional buyers: who you trade with structurally determines the quality of execution, not just the spread. Algorithmic fixed income market making didn't fail on technology, it failed on capital structure. US capital markets are excellent at funding venture, growth equity, private equity, and buyouts, but there is almost no domestic pool of “risk equity” - capital comfortable with the possibility that the machines (or the humans) lose money on a given day. Market makers need exactly that kind of balance sheet, and the mismatch between what the business requires and what the US capital base offers is a structural reason firms like Elefant struggled, regardless of execution quality. The Circle-vs-Tether framing is already obsolete; the next product wedge is interoperability. B2C2 made an 18-month-old contrarian bet that the duopoly narrative was wrong and that Stripe (via Bridge), Western Union, Revolut, and many other consumer and platform companies would issue their own stablecoins. PENNY - instant, zero-cost, zero-counterparty-risk stablecoin-to-stablecoin swaps - is the product expression of that view. The deeper claim is that stablecoins are software, and the SaaS analogy (a base layer plus an app store of programmable financial logic) is the real reason institutional adoption accelerates from here, not the transfer-of-value benefit on its own.

Rendez-vous incontournable des amoureux de la musique FUNK Il était une fois, mes premiers 45T, maxis, albums, mes premières cassettes audio, il me manquait quelque chose, une expérience radio, elle allait venir, il a fallu se présenter, ce fut chose faite et hop : L'aventure allait commencer en 1982, je m'en souviens très bien, les émissions Funk se succédaient le week end, c'était de la folie, premiers calages de disques vinyles et premières interventions au micro. La toute première radio s'appelait RDP Radio des Poumons 92 mhz, de bons souvenirs avant de connaître d'autres horizons. Nous sommes en 1983, je débarque sur une radio beaucoup plus importante à l'époque avec à l'intérieur une équipe d'animateurs qui pour la plupart officiaient aussi en discothèque, cette station de radio avait pour nom Contact Fm sur le 104 mhz. Il a fallu se faire une place et ce fut chose faite avec une émission Funk Night Club le vendredi, le samedi il existait une autre émission Funk appelée Dérapages Nocturnes animée par Pascal , belle rencontre, contraint d'abandonner pour raisons personnelles quelques temps après cette émission, je décide avec son accord de reprendre celle-ci, il était inconcevable à l'époque que cette émission DN puisse disparaître de la grille des programmes de la radio, les années passent, Contact FM devient Radio Mandarine 95.2 mhz. Au milieu des années 80 l'occasion se présente et j'organise des soirées Funk dans une discothèque Nantaise située à la Beaujoire : le New Cleef , de bons souvenirs mais aussi de belles rencontres. Fin Janvier 1988, Radio Mandarine cesse d'émettre, une page se tourne, l'émission DN reprendra sur quelques radios : Saga 98 Mhz, Radio Fréquence bleue 102.1 Mhz en Bretagne , Radio Alternantes 98.1 Mhz. Janvier 1996 l'émission DN arrive sur Turbulence Radio 93.4 mhz qui deviendra par la suite Radio NTI en Janvier 2001, l'émission cessera d'émettre sur NTI le samedi 24 Juillet 2004. 8 ans ½ là encore de bons souvenirs. Nouveau départ pour les DN en Septembre 2004 sur une Radio locale Nantaise SUN 93 FM où je retrouve la couleur musicale que j'avais connu une bonne vingtaine d'années auparavant sur Contact Fm puis Radio Mandarine.

Burned out. Ready to quit. One bad season away from selling everything. That's exactly where Jeremy Laurence found himself. In this powerful Level Up + Live conversation, the owner of Air Woodlands reveals the truth behind the success nobody saw. Exhausted, overwhelmed, and watching stress spill into his marriage, family, and business, Jeremy admits he was ready to walk away from the company he spent years building. But what happened next changed everything. After stepping into a community of leaders and choosing growth over comfort, Jeremy experienced a transformation that reached far beyond business. From losing more than 35 pounds and rebuilding his health to developing leaders inside his company and rediscovering joy, Jeremy shares the breakthroughs that helped him go from surviving to leading with purpose. He opens up about the emotional toll of entrepreneurship, the warning signs of burnout, the power of honest conversations, and why so many business owners wait until they're completely worn out before asking for help. He also shares the lessons that changed his marriage, strengthened his faith, improved his leadership, and helped his children see a better version of their father. If you're a business owner, entrepreneur, or leader who feels tired, stressed, frustrated, or secretly wondering if it's time to give up, this episode may be exactly what you need to hear. From addiction recovery and near burnout to renewed purpose and stronger relationships, Jeremy's story proves that success isn't about working harder. It's about becoming the person you're capable of becoming. The comeback nobody saw coming started with one decision. And what Jeremy discovered might change the way you think about leadership forever.

Today we sit down with Laurence Philips of Hardy Roach Games, an independent designer who creates unique games that focus on themes that dive deeper than your average TTRPG. His one-page games are weird and exciting to play, and now he discusses his brand-new game, Il Fantasmo del Giallo. Step into the world of Giallo, a 20th-century Italian film genre that focuses on switchbacks, misdirection, and mile-high stakes. Il Fantasmo del Giallo is a cinematic, dark, brooding game that focuses on narratives and scenes more than a traditional dice-roller. Drama, Mystery, and Mortality are the main words of the game, and it's an excellent example of the doors that have opened in modern roleplaying. Trauma decks, scene work, and avant-garde lenses to play make for a new take on an old genre.

Top Chef Season 23 Ep 13 Recap Dive into the semifinals of Top Chef Season 23, Episode 13, as Haley Strong, Curt Clark, and Chef Jim Smith break down a night packed with culinary creativity and unforgettable plating choices. The hosts bring their unique perspectives to the table, unpacking not just technical skills but also the strategic decisions that shape a chef's journey to the finale. From dissecting a “20 Questions” inspired Quickfire to the intricacies of plating in quirky vessels, this episode highlights the clever ways chefs adapt and innovate under pressure. The discussion opens with a look at the challenges and nerves from the semifinals, including how this season's editing sheds light on rule enforcement and the presence of legal teams. The conversation quickly veers into the memorable animal encounters on set, like a rogue snake keeping contestants on edge, and personal anecdotes about kitchen critter run-ins that keep things fun and relatable. The team explores how the 20 Questions challenge requires collaboration and chef-level sensory skills, debating which questions made or broke the guessing game and how closely each chef came to recreating Tom's original dish. As the elimination round ramps up, debate flies about whether the creative use of vessels—like driftwood, pumpkins, and even a clothesline—really influences the judges or distracts from the food itself. Each chef's dish is reviewed for execution, inspiration, and how well it met the challenge of form meeting flavor. Key moments and topics include: The chefs' teamwork and tactics in the 20 Questions Quickfire as they chase down flavor profiles without touching or tasting the original dish The impact of memorable plating, from Laurence's family-style dim sum to Sherry's inventive use of a miniature clothesline Debates about when extra ingredients help or hurt, especially when contestants go off-script or miss crucial elements in a replication challenge Nostalgic callbacks to notorious Top Chef plating disasters and how today's contestants learn from the past A look ahead at the finalists, the unpredictability of the finale, and how serving order may change a chef's fate Which chef turns a quirky vessel into victory, and who falls short when innovation clashes with execution? Get ready for sharp culinary insights, strategic breakdowns, and stories of mall Chinese food, truffle oil, and cereal debates.

In this episode, Lex chats with Mike Milotich — Chief Executive Officer of Marqeta, the modern card issuing platform that processed nearly $400 billion in payments volume in 2025, and is certified to operate in 40+ countries, growing over 30% for the third straight year. They discuss how Marqeta's separation of bank, processor, and brand armed fintech's largest winners across buy now pay later, on-demand delivery, neo-banking, and expense management with the Lego blocks to build their own card programs. Mike explains how the company's growth is shifting from enabling new use cases to displacing volume on legacy bank platforms, and they explore why card issuing is going multinational, what the agentic commerce wave actually requires to clear security and behavioural hurdles, and how Marqeta's continued growth runs through embedded finance, real-time personalisation, and the forced modernisation of the banks themselves. NOTABLE DISCUSSION POINTS: The BNPL business model is flipping from merchant rails to consumer cards. Marqeta originally solved the merchant scale problem for buy now pay later via virtual cards, removing the need for tens of millions of merchants to integrate a new button at checkout. The current shift is more important: BNPL players are now issuing consumers their own physical and virtual cards usable anywhere cards are accepted, turning BNPL from a merchant-acceptance game into a direct consumer value proposition. BNPL volume has grown over 50% year-on-year for Marqeta in recent quarters. Card issuing is going multinational, and that breaks the legacy bank model. Banks have always been local on the consumer side, with only a handful multinational on the commercial treasury side. The next generation of card issuers, neo-banks like Revolut and Nubank, plus large global platforms embedding financial products into existing user bases, are global by default. A single platform that issues cards, and is certified to operate across 40+ countries, becomes the strategic moat, and legacy processors built to serve domestic bank programs aren't structured to compete. The growth story is moving from expanding the pie to displacing the incumbents. To date, Marqeta has mostly powered new card use cases that didn't exist before — on-demand delivery, BNPL, neo-banking, expense management. Mike's forward thesis is a phase change: pressure from fintech winners is forcing banks to modernise, and the next leg of growth comes from displacing volume sitting on legacy bank-controlled platforms. Real-time personalised rewards, where the same card delivers different offers to different cardholders based on live data, is the wedge that legacy infrastructure can't deliver.

La France compte plus de décès que de naissances. Ce basculement démographique touche directement le futur du travail et les décisions que les managers et les DRH prennent aujourd'hui.Dans cet épisode, Delphine Zanelli reçoit Laurence Peyraut, vice-présidente d'Entreprises et Progrès, think tank de dirigeants fondé en 1970 par Antoine Riboud et François Dalle, qui co-préside le chantier "Démographie" lancé cette année.Ce basculement démographique était anticipable depuis des décennies. Les économistes en avaient les modèles. Ce qui frappe dans cet échange, c'est que le sujet n'est toujours pas traité là où il se joue vraiment : dans les organisations. La tendance naturelle est d'opposer les mondes. Seniors contre jeunes. Public contre privé. Technologie contre humain. Ce réflexe d'opposition est précisément ce qui empêche de construire des réponses concrètes. La démographie est d'abord un sujet de démocratie, et la démocratie se joue aussi dans l'entreprise.L'épisode part d'un petit-déjeuner organisé par Entreprises et Progrès avec Constance de Pellichy, présidente de la mission parlementaire sur la natalité en France. Une présentation qui a mis des chiffres sur une réalité que beaucoup de dirigeants avaient mise de côté. Derrière la courbe, ce sont des décisions d'entreprise concrètes qui se jouent : remplacer ou non les congés maternité, créer des accords de branche sur les aidants, intégrer les jeunes dans un marché du travail où l'IA commence à couper les premiers recrutements. Laurence Peyraut relie des sujets rarement connectés dans un même échange : la crise du couple et son lien avec l'organisation du travail, le modèle nordique des congés parentaux longs comme levier économique pour les entreprises et les familles, les accords sociaux comme outils de fidélisation du corps social. Elle rappelle l'histoire d'Antoine Riboud s'arrêtant boulevard Saint-Germain en mai 68 pour discuter avec les étudiants, se demandant : "Et s'ils avaient raison ?" C'est de ce moment de doute qu'est né le double projet économique et social de Danone, et qu'est né Entreprises et Progrès. Elle pose aussi la question centrale du futur du travail : toutes les entreprises auront la même IA. Ce qui différencie, c'est le corps social, la culture, la relation. Ce sont les 5 % que la technologie ne peut pas reproduire.Économètre de formation, Laurence Peyraut a traversé des secteurs stratégiques de la pharmacie à l'alimentation, en passant par la banque et la santé. Elle a co-présidé le LEM, syndicat représentatif des laboratoires pharmaceutiques, négociant des accords de branche pour 100 000 collaborateurs. Ce croisement de terrains lui donne une capacité à voir les régularités là où d'autres voient des cas isolés. Son angle n'est pas celui d'un observateur extérieur. C'est celui d'une dirigeante qui a elle-même vécu la solitude des décisions exécutives et qui co-construit des pistes actionnables avec d'autres chefs d'entreprise.Cet épisode donne des éléments concrets pour comprendre pourquoi la démographie est un sujet de management, identifier les leviers que les DRH et dirigeants peuvent activer dès maintenant pour intégrer les jeunes et fidéliser les seniors, et se préparer à un futur du travail où le corps social devient l'actif stratégique irremplaçable.Entreprise et Progrès est le think tank des dirigeants qui placent l'Humain au cœur de l'entrepriseEntreprise et Progrès rassemble des dirigeants autour de problématiques concrètes rencontrées dans leurs organisations. Les sujets sont choisis par les adhérents eux-mêmes afin d'anticiper les évolutions du futur du travail et de proposer des pistes applicables dans les entreprises.

Launching in pharma, especially for smaller organizations, is a complex, high-pressure marathon, and establishing Launch Excellence fundamentals early is essential for success. In this episode, Andrew Mooney and Laurence Cooper, Launch Excellence Experts at Lumanity, discuss the overwhelming complexity and pressure of pharma launches, especially for smaller or first-time organizations with limited experience, resources, and intense market expectations. They break down five essential fundamentals: insight-driven strategy, strong governance and decision-making, organizational alignment and culture, right-sized team capabilities, and timely resourcing, to help teams build a solid foundation for success. They emphasize the importance of focus and discipline, including defining a clear, winnable segment, building an early, realistic critical path, maintaining an integrated, cross-functional plan, and using honest KPIs and risk planning to avoid costly surprises. They also highlight how smaller organizations can outperform larger competitors by leveraging agility, ruthless prioritization, strong leadership, and early preparation to replace chaos and burnout with clarity, confidence, and control at launch. If you're preparing for a first or early pharma launch and feeling the pressure, this conversation offers a practical blueprint to help you focus, stay ahead of risks, and build the confidence needed to execute successfully!

This episode draws on experimental and review literature on mirror-gazing, strange-face illusions, anomalous self-experience, dissociation, agency, face pareidolia, and face-distortion disorders, especially the work of Giovanni B. Caputo, Caputo/Lynn/Houran, Mash et al., Bregman-Hai and Soffer-Dudek, Derome et al., Palmer and Clifford, and Blom et al. Historical and occult context comes from research on catoptromancy, John Dee's angelic scrying records, the British Museum's “Dr Dee's Magical Mirror,” Campbell et al.'s Antiquity study on the mirror's Mexican/Aztec obsidian origin, and Mesoamerican material on Tezcatlipoca and the “Smoking Mirror.”Links For The Occult Rejectshttps://linktr.ee/theoccultrejectsOccult Research Institutehttps://www.occultresearchinstitute.org/Cash Apphttps://cash.app/$theoccultrejectsVenmo@TheOccultRejectsBuy Me A Coffeebuymeacoffee.com/TheOccultRejectsPatreonhttps://www.patreon.com/TheOccultRejectsCore Scientific Sources: Mirror-Gazing, Strange Faces, and Altered Self-ExperienceCaputo, Giovanni B. “Strange-Face-in-the-Mirror Illusion.” Perception 39, no. 7, 2010, 1007–1008.Key use: This is the main science anchor for the episode. Caputo showed that prolonged mirror-gazing under low illumination can produce strange-face apparitions, including distortions, unknown faces, monstrous faces, animal-like faces, archetypal faces, and faces of relatives or deceased people.Caputo, Giovanni B., Steven Jay Lynn, and James Houran. “Mirror- and Eye-Gazing: An Integrative Review of Induced Altered and Anomalous Experiences.” Imagination, Cognition and Personality 40, no. 4, 2021, 418–457.Key use: This is one of the strongest overview sources. It reviews empirical studies on mirror-gazing, psychomanteum work, and eye-to-eye gazing, especially in relation to altered perception, anomalous experiences, bodily experience, and self-identity.Mash, Joanna, Paul M. Jenkinson, Charlotte E. Dean, and Keith R. Laws. “Strange Face Illusions: A Systematic Review and Quality Analysis.” Consciousness and Cognition 109, 2023, article 103480.Key use: Newer review source. Useful because it supports strange-face illusions as a reliable phenomenon in both mirror-gazing and interpersonal gazing, while also warning that stronger research is still needed on mechanisms and prevalence.Bregman-Hai, Noa, and Nirit Soffer-Dudek. “Mirror-Gazing-Induced Dissociation Impairs Self-Reported and Implicit Sense of Agency: A Causal Investigation of Dissociation and Agency Under Controlled Laboratory Conditions.” PLOS ONE 21, no. 2, 2026, e0341316.Key use: Excellent source for the agency section. This connects mirror-gazing-induced dissociation with weakened sense of agency, which pairs well with mediumship, possession, automatic writing, and the feeling that “something else” is present.Derome, Mélodie, Eduardo Fonseca-Pedrero, Giovanni Battista Caputo, and Martin Debbané. “A Developmental Study of Mirror-Gazing-Induced Anomalous Self-Experiences and Self-Reported Schizotypy from 7 to 28 Years of Age.” Psychopathology 55, no. 1, 2022, 49–61.Key use: Useful developmental source. It connects mirror-gazing-induced anomalous self-experiences with age, self-perception, and schizotypal traits.Caputo, Giovanni B. “Visual Perception During Mirror-Gazing at One's Own Face in Patients with Depression.” The Scientific World Journal, 2014.Key use: Useful for the emotion/self-face relationship section. Caputo found that strange-face apparitions were reduced in patients with depression compared with healthy controls, including shorter duration, fewer strange faces, weaker intensity, and lower emotional response.Tramacere, Antonella. “Face Yourself: The Social Neuroscience of Mirror Gazing.” Frontiers in Psychology 13, 2022, article 949211.Key use: Strong support for the idea that mirror-gazing is like seeing yourself as another. It connects self-face perception with social neuroscience and the overlap between how we perceive our own face and the faces of others.Chakraborty, Anya C., and Bhismadev Chakrabarti. “Looking at My Own Face: Visual Processing Strategies in Self–Other Face Recognition.” Frontiers in Psychology 9, 2018.Key use: Useful for the self-face recognition section. This study looks at how people process their own face compared with other faces.Conty, Laurence, Nathalie George, and Jari K. Hietanen. “Watching Eyes Effects: When Others Meet the Self.” Consciousness and Cognition 45, 2016, 184–197.Key use: Best support for the gaze/presence section. It argues that direct gaze captures attention and triggers self-referential processing, which helps explain why a mirror can make the viewer feel watched.Face Perception, Pareidolia, and Monstrous DistortionPalmer, Colin J., and Colin W. G. Clifford. “Face Pareidolia Recruits Mechanisms for Detecting Human Social Attention.” Psychological Science 31, no. 8, 2020, 1001–1012.Key use: Best source for the “face-making brain” section. It supports the idea that illusory faces are not treated as meaningless noise; they can recruit mechanisms involved in social attention.Blom, Jan Dirk, Bastiaan C. ter Meulen, Jitze Dool, and Dominic H. ffytche. “A Century of Prosopometamorphopsia Studies.” Cortex 139, 2021, 298–308.Key use: Use carefully as a comparison source, not as a direct explanation for all scrying. Prosopometamorphopsia is a rare condition where faces appear distorted, showing that face-processing systems can produce frightening facial distortions under certain conditions.Psychomanteum, Grief, and Seeing the DeadHastings, Arthur, Michael Hutton, William Braud, et al. “Psychomanteum Research: Experiences and Effects on Bereavement.” OMEGA: Journal of Death and Dying 45, no. 3, 2002, 211–228.Key use: Main grief / dead-in-the-mirror source. Use carefully. It does not prove afterlife contact, but it supports the idea that mirror-gazing, darkness, memory, and grief can produce powerful experiences interpreted as contact.Moody, Raymond A. Reunions: Visionary Encounters with Departed Loved Ones. New York: Villard, 1993.Key use: Main modern popular source for the psychomanteum as a grief-contact chamber. Use as practitioner/popular context, not as the strongest academic evidence.Terhune, Devin B., and Matthew D. Smith. “The Induction of Anomalous Experiences in a Mirror-Gazing Facility: Suggestion, Cognitive Perceptual Personality Traits and Phenomenological State Effects.” The Journal of Nervous and Mental Disease 194, no. 6, 2006, 415–421.Key use: Good supporting source for anomalous experiences in a mirror-gazing facility. Pairs well with Hastings and the Caputo review.Kamp, K. S., Evgenia Steffen, Louis A. Kasket, and others. “Sensory and Quasi-Sensory Experiences of the Deceased in Bereavement: An Interdisciplinary and Integrative Review.” Schizophrenia Bulletin 46, no. 6, 2020, 1367–1381.Key use: Strong source for the grief section. It supports the point that bereaved people often report sensory or quasi-sensory experiences of the deceased, including feeling a presence, seeing, hearing, smelling, or sensing the dead.Hewson, Helen, and colleagues. “The Impact of Continuing Bonds Following Bereavement: A Systematic Review.” Death Studies, 2024.Key use: Useful for continuing bonds. It helps frame ongoing inner relationships with the dead as part of bereavement rather than automatically pathological.Historical, Religious, and Occult Mirror DivinationJohnston, Sarah Iles. Ancient Greek Divination. Wiley-Blackwell, 2008.Key use: Broad academic background for ancient divination systems. Not only mirror scrying, but very useful for framing divination as a serious religious and cultural practice.“Technical Divination and Mechanics of Sacred Space.” In Technologies of the Marvellous in Ancient Greek Religion. Cambridge University Press.Key use: Useful for ancient catoptromancy. This chapter discusses mirror divination as a technical mode of ancient divination involving reflective/catoptric knowledge and assumptions about divine intervention in human knowledge.Lee, Mireille M. “The Gendered Economics of Greek Bronze Mirrors.” Hesperia 86, no. 1, 2017.Key use: Useful for Greek bronze mirrors as social, gendered, material, and possibly magical/divinatory objects.Pitt Rivers Museum. “Mirrors.” Body Arts Collection Resource.Key use: Good museum-level source for folklore around mirrors and catoptromancy. Useful for basic show-note support on the traditional belief that mirrors could reveal the future.John Dee, Black Mirrors, and ObsidianBritish Museum. “Dr Dee's Magical Mirror / Dr Dee's Magical Speculum.” Collection object 1966,1001.1.Key use: Essential object source. The British Museum identifies the object as Dr. Dee's magical mirror or magical speculum, made of obsidian, catalogued as Aztec, and broadly dated to the 14th–16th century.Campbell, Stuart, Elizabeth Healey, Jago Cooper, Naomi Speakman, and others. “The Mirror, the Magus and More: Reflections on John Dee's Obsidian Mirror.” Antiquity 95, 2021.Key use: Essential academic source for Dee's mirror. The study uses geochemical analysis to show that the British Museum obsidian mirrors are Mexican in origin, with Dee's mirror matching the Pachuca obsidian source.Nature. “A ‘Spirit Mirror' Used in Elizabeth I's Court Had Aztec Roots.” 2021.Key use: Short science-news summary of the Antiquity findings. Useful for quickly explaining that Dee's mirror was traced to a source near Pachuca, Mexico.Smithsonian Magazine. “Obsidian ‘Spirit Mirror' Used by Elizabeth I's Court Astrologer Has Aztec Origins.” 2021.Key use: Useful public-facing summary of Dee's mirror, its Aztec/Mexican origin, and its connection to Elizabethan occult culture.Dee, John, and Meric Casaubon, ed.

Why shame isn't an emotion—but an adaptive survival process. Dr. Laurence Heller unpacks how the NeuroAffective Relational Model® (NARM®) reframes shame, identity, and developmental trauma for more effective clinical work. How do you define shame? Would you describe shame as an unproductive emotion or self-reproach? Or, would you dive headlong into examples, chronicling instances when you felt deserving of blame? Either answer is an invitation to probe deeper, to assess how this complex adaptive strategy has limited your ability to relate to yourself, your community, and the world. On this episode of Transforming Trauma, host Emily Ruth is honored to welcome back Dr. Laurence Heller, creator of the NeuroAffective Relational Model® (NARM®) and author of the new book Healing Shame and Guilt: The Developmental Roots of Chronic Shame and Guilt and How the NeuroAffective Relational Model (NARM) Can Help You Heal and Reconnect. Transforming Trauma is grateful to Dr. Heller for helping us get a deeper understanding of shame and guilt as universal human experiences, the ways they harm us, and how we can heal from them.
