The guest fell through, but the conversation we needed showed up anyway. What starts as a solo pivot becomes a candid look at why emotional performance so often replaces grounded compassion—and how a recent Minnesota tragedy revealed the script in real time. I unpack the psychology of meaning-making, the shift from “I do activism” to “I am an activist,” and the social rewards that elevate feelings as proof of virtue. When identity fuses with ideology, dissent reads as harm, analysis gets labeled cruel, and symbolism races ahead of facts.We also talk about the role of institutionalized guilt and the anxiety it breeds: overperformance at vigils, faster condemnations, louder declarations that center the self while sidelining the person who was harmed. Media ecosystems compound it with binary frames that can't hold nuance, turning complex events into morality plays. I walk through the Minnesota case details, why evidence matters, and how tragedies become props when narratives demand instant certainty. This isn't a hit piece—it's an attempt to understand how smart, sincere people can still drift into brittle certainty, where empathy without truth becomes manipulation and debate gives way to megaphones.There's a different path. Anchor emotions to something outside the self: responsibility, order, and humility. Let grief be sacred, not strategic. Ask what we know and what we don't before we pronounce judgment. Real strength requires restraint; real compassion requires listening; real justice requires truth. If that resonates—or rankles—lean in. I want to hear your take, your pushback, and your added layers.If this conversation challenged you or clarified something you've been feeling, share it with a friend, subscribe for more, and leave a review so others can find it.

What if the question holding you back isn't “Why me?” but “Why not me?” We sit down with Dr. Ed Newton, lead pastor of Community Bible Church and author of Why Not You, to unpack a life-changing shift in identity and calling. Ed opens up about battling rejection, dyslexia, anxiety, and a season so heavy he almost didn't make it through—then shows how counseling, community, and the Holy Spirit rebuilt courage from the inside out.We explore why shame quietly fuses failure to identity, how guilt can lead to repentance without defining who you are, and why most of us carry “rent-free” voices from the past that still drive today's choices. Ed shares a practical path to renew your mind, grounded in Romans 12: capture the thoughts, test the story, replace the lie with truth. He makes the case that your design is not an accident—image of God is your baseline—and even your supposed kryptonite can become a superpower when it's surrendered to purpose.The conversation lifts from the personal to the practical: a pregame talk to a losing basketball team becomes the spark for a book deal, a fresh reminder that calling is usually discovered through ordinary faithfulness. We talk imposter syndrome, true humility versus self-deprecation, and the leadership question that rewires self-awareness: What's it like to be on the other side of me? Along the way, Ed points you to simple next steps—daily devotionals, teaching, and tools—to keep your inner script aligned with who God says you are.If God will use someone today, why not you? Hit play, reframe the question, and take your next bold step.

The ocean doesn't care about your plan, and that's exactly why we love it. We invited part of the Taylor Jean crew aboard the show to share how a handful of friends—bankers, builders, and tinkerers—built one of the most respected teams on the offshore tournament circuit. The story starts with a seasick freshwater angler who fell in love under a sky full of stars 80 miles out, and it unfolds into a masterclass on preparation, judgment, and trust when the seas get sporty.We dig into the craft behind the glamour: why some captains believe certain hulls “raise fish,” how swapping to a Viking changed hookup rates with the same crew and tactics, and what it takes to rig for success when a nicked leader can cost six figures. Blaine walks us through the pre-season grind—thousands of hooks, fresh line on every rod, backup everything—and the game-day calls that make or break an eight-hour window. Jay connects the dots between life skills and fishing skills: communication, composure, and the discipline to do the boring work so the exciting moments go your way.Then the ocean tests the plan. A rogue wave breaks over the house, the cockpit floods, a rod disappears, and the call is to head in—until a blue marlin eats and forces the team to execute in chaos. They finish the fight, release cleanly after lines out, and live to fish the next day. Along the way, we talk release-first ethics, guest anglers, and the traditions that stitch a team together, from first-billfish jumps to prank wars on rival boats. COVID-era adjustments—dinners delivered to the dock, fewer tents, more focus—sharpened their edge and reminded them why they chase fish in the first place.If you're curious about offshore sport fishing, tournament strategy, and the strange alchemy of passion plus preparation, this conversation puts you right in the cockpit. Hear about wildlife encounters like a giant loggerhead and the famed Dolphin 56, learn why weather windows dictate 120-mile runs, and see how camaraderie turns pressure into performance.

What happens when a daughter writes two letters a week to her mom for ten years while breaking into one of the most male-dominated industries in America? You get a time-capsule memoir packed with real deals, real setbacks, and real strategies that still work. We're joined by Dr. Mary Mitchell, who rose through the 1980s pulp, paper, and timber world negotiating 60 contracts at a time, feeding mills through strikes and shortages, and outmaneuvering intimidation with a calm, data-first style.Mary walks us through the volatile market forces that defined the decade—interest rates near 20 percent, housing crashes, export booms—and how she turned chaos into leverage with scenario planning, meticulous market intel, and relentless relationship-building with everyone from tug dispatchers to scale houses. She unpacks her “plain vanilla” negotiation approach: ignore the theatrics, return to price and inventory, anticipate failure modes, and have ten counters ready when they hit. The stories are vivid: rescuing a mill with hog fuel dug from a forgotten valley, barging sawdust into San Francisco, and earning a rival's backhanded compliment for never leaving a dime on the table.We also talk about boundaries and resilience. Mary shares how she handled inappropriate advances by steering back to business, why preparation disarms bullies, and how confidence grows when you ask the “dumb” questions first. For students of negotiation, supply chain pros, and women navigating male-heavy fields, this conversation doubles as a practical playbook and a compelling narrative. Her letters are now a memoir, and her methods are as relevant to today's complex markets as they were when strikes shut down mills and trucks lined the yard.Grab the book on Kindle now, with paperback, hardback, and audio on the way.

The hardest moments don't just test our faith—they rewrite it. Author Elizabeth Harris sits with us to share how grief, motherhood, and the daily work of love turned her from religious motions to a living relationship with God. After losing her grandfather, she began writing letters to heaven, a humble practice that shifted from ink on a page to prayer with a pulse. Those pages became a map out of despair, teaching her to feel what is real, name it without shame, and surrender what she couldn't fix.Our talk moves from the silence of loss to the music of nature. Elizabeth describes standing in a tropical grove as wind changed tone across different trees, a simple moment that revealed a language of the Spirit—one breath expressed a thousand ways. That insight fueled her choice to blend poetry and prose, because some truths need the space of a line break and others need the steadiness of narrative. We also walk through her unexpected path into late motherhood and the seismic shift of raising a son with autism and cognitive delay. Denial gave way to an honest, gut-level lament that cleared room for peace. Along the way, she learned to see people who wound us as carrying their own special needs of the heart, and to live from the inside out instead of performing for the room.Elizabeth now describes herself as a heartist, offering prayerful Reiki as gentle care that smooths stress and pours love without fanfare. Her throughline is disarmingly simple: be the child of God you are, and the rest finds its place. If you've been navigating grief, faith deconstruction, autism parenting, or the fear of sharing vulnerable work, this conversation offers practical hope and thoughtful perspective. Listen, breathe, and consider what love this moment is asking of you.If this resonated, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs courage, and leave a short review—it helps more people find these stories.

Counter-Cartographies: Reading Singapore Otherwise (Liverpool UP, 2024) draws from a body of Anglophone and multilingual cultural texts created in contemporary Singapore and in its diasporic communities. From banned documentaries to award-winning graphic novels, flash fiction collections to conceptual art, there is a vibrant, growing body of transmedial, multi-genre resistance to an overmapped, hyper-planned, and ecologically destructive postcolonial development. The author proposes methods of cultural analysis and close reading that are “counter-cartographical” --- reading in resistance to and yet pressed up against the regulations of a (post)colonial map. To excavate, wayfind, circumvent, and confabulate in these spaces enables us to understand the contours and pressures of authoritarian governance and reveal the insidious aspects of biopolitical power in the (post)colonial city. These four spatial and theoretical movements deliberately enmesh the space of everyday life in a complex awareness of time: in historical contexts, in ongoing social relations, in contemporary political realities, and the imagined possibilities of literary spaces. In a global political context that is increasingly marked by a return to authoritarianism, cultural production from Singapore provides an intense, microcosmic view of the conditions of art-making an overdetermined urban space, under duress and censorship. It further lays bare the ecological and human costs of unbridled postcolonial extraction and development.

In this thought-provoking episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosts Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton delve into the complexities of identity among spouses of law enforcement officers. Titled The Identity Challenge: Beyond Being a Police Wife (Affiliate), this episode explores why it's crucial for individuals to maintain separate identities beyond their roles connected to their spouses' careers. Drawing on a real-life scenario from a Facebook community, we discuss the broader implications of identifying too closely with a partner's profession and strategies for personal growth and resilience. Overview of the episode's focus on the potential drawbacks of spouses identifying primarily as a ""police wife"" or ""LEO spouse."" Context from Social Media: Presentation of a Facebook post from a member of a police spouse group who is facing separation from her husband and contemplating leaving the community, illustrating the deep ties and potential identity crisis faced by individuals in these roles. Post: ""Well I suppose it's time for me to leave this group after 4 years as my husband was forced to resign from his department and now we are separating."" Thank you all for the advice and support over the years. I've truly enjoyed being a part of this community and am sad to be leaving it. Good luck ladies and stay strong! Reply: "Once a LEOW Always a A LEOW. You don't need to leave." Identity and Dependency: Exploration of how and why spouses of law enforcement officers may develop a strong identification with their partner's profession. Discussion on the risks associated with this identity, particularly how it affects personal independence and emotional health. Impact of Career Changes: Analyze the implications of a law enforcement officer's career changes, such as forced resignation, on their spouse's social identity and community involvement. Consider how these changes can lead to feelings of isolation or loss of identity for the spouse. Building a Diverse Identity: Strategies for spouses to cultivate their own independent identities that are separate from their partner's profession. Tips on engaging in personal hobbies, career development, and social networks outside the law enforcement community. Support Systems and Resources: Information on support systems and resources available for spouses who might feel overly identified with their partner's careers. Advice on finding and accessing community support groups that focus on personal development and not just the role of being a police spouse. Recap the discussion on the importance of maintaining a balanced and independent identity, particularly in the context of the law enforcement community. Emphasize the value of personal growth, resilience, and the support available to help individuals navigate these challenges. Listeners are encouraged to reflect on their own identities and the extent to which they are tied to their spouse's profession. Invite listeners to share their experiences and how they have managed to maintain or regain their personal identities. Tune into this episode to gain insights into managing and enriching your own identity while being part of the law enforcement community. Whether you are a police spouse or know someone who is, this episode offers valuable perspectives on fostering independence and resilience in relationships deeply intertwined with law enforcement.

In 2000, Graem Milicich and Tim Rainey published an article outlining how traditionally treated teeth were at greater risk to infections from cracks due to the increased stresses on the tooth. This includes peripheral rim fractures, which occur when restored teeth are not connected side to side like with amalgam or poorly bonded composite. These small cracks around the edge of the restoration lead to occlusal effect caries and increased risk of larger cracks in the tooth.When Dr. Alleman began learning more about structural compromise, he purchased a microscope for his office and was then able to visualize cracks in dentin. He saw how these cracks were symptomatic, but the dental school recommendation of a full-coverage crown wasn't enough to stabilize them. Dr. Alleman began removing the cracks and seeing symptoms resolve. This was confirmed by a paper he discovered later by Abbott and Leow, two Australian endodontists who studied symptoms after crack removal and found superior results to previous recommendations of full coverage crowns or attempting to bond over the cracks. When the cracks were removed the symptoms went away.Articles referenced in this episode:Milicich G, Rainey J T.
