Start Your Transformation Now Picking up directly from Part 1, Jim Fortin goes deeper into the conditioning that has quietly shaped everything people believe about themselves. Through striking examples — from North Korea's culture of total indoctrination to a Ku Klux Klan grandmother holding her grandchild — Jim makes it undeniable: the beliefs, fears, and limitations most people carry were absorbed before they ever had the capacity to question them. Whether it is money, relationships, health, or identity, what feels like personal truth is almost always inherited — a map someone else drew that has been steering the course of an entire life.  Jim challenges listeners to see themselves as a marionette whose strings were attached at birth — and to start asking who has been pulling them. Rather than a small, struggling being grinding through life alone, every person is universal intelligence expressing itself in human form. The real work is not hustle or strategy — it is consciousness. And the first crack in the prison wall begins the moment someone realizes they are not the hand, not the body, but the awareness running through it.  If you have ever wondered why effort alone never seems to be enough, this episode offers the answer most people have never been given. Listen closely.  What You'll Discover in This Episode:  (02:24) You inherited a map you never drew — How beliefs about money, religion, race, and relationships are absorbed automatically in childhood, leaving most people navigating their entire lives through someone else's version of reality.  (05:47) The fish that doesn't know it's in water — Why the most dangerous conditioning is the kind that feels completely natural, and how the inability to see the brainwashing is itself proof that it worked.  (09:09) Your healing power was taken from you — How society's conditioning around illness and medicine has disconnected people from the body's innate ability to heal — and why Jim tuned out his own doctors after his 2020 heart failure and stroke.  (15:51) Rich people dream of staying rich, poor people dream of staying poor — How the financial reality a person is born into becomes the subconscious blueprint they keep recreating — and what it takes to break the cycle.  (22:15) The universe is doing the heavy lifting — you've been brainwashed to forget it — Why the belief that you must struggle alone is itself the conditioning, and how reconnecting with universal intelligence is what actually returns your power.  (25:11) You are not the body — you are the awareness of it — The identity shift that changes everything: recognizing that the "I" inside you is not the physical container, but the consciousness running through it.  Listen, apply, and enjoy!  Transformational Takeaway  Everything you have been told about who you are, what you can heal, what you can earn, and how hard life has to be — that was someone else's story. You were handed a map you didn't draw and have been following it your whole life. The fears are learned. The limits are inherited. The struggle is conditioning, not law. You are not a small being fighting to survive — you are the intelligence of the universe expressed in human form, the same intelligence that beats your heart and heals a cut without a single conscious thought. The moment you stop identifying with the body and recognize yourself as the awareness within it, your power begins to return.  Let's Connect:  Instagram | Facebook | YouTube | LinkedIn  LIKED THE EPISODE?  If you're the kind of person who likes to help others, then share this with your friends and family.

In this deeply important and heartfelt episode, hospice and oncology nurse, death doula educator, and founder of the Doulagivers Institute https://doulagivers.com, Suzanne B. O'Brien RN, shares the truth about why so many end-of-life experiences today are filled with fear, overwhelm, and unnecessary suffering. After supporting over a thousand people at the end of life, Suzanne explains that the problem is not a lack of love — it is a lack of education, understanding, and support. The good news? A peaceful and meaningful end of life is absolutely possible. In this episode, Suzanne breaks down the top three reasons end of life is not going well for most families today — and what we can do to change it. In This Episode, Suzanne Discusses: 1. Families No Longer Have the Skills to Care for Loved Ones at End of Life How end-of-life care was once passed down from grandmother to grandchild Why these sacred caregiving skills have been lost over the last 100 years The emotional toll on families who are suddenly expected to become caregivers overnight Why this is not a failure of families — but a failure of education 2. Most People Do Not Understand What Hospice Does (or Does Not Do) The truth about the hospice model today Why hospice should be understood as a “consultant model” rather than continuous care The reality that family caregivers provide approximately 98% of the hands-on end-of-life care, even with hospice services involved Why the median hospice stay of only 16–18 days creates crisis care instead of supportive care Suzanne's firsthand experience as a hospice nurse trying to teach families how to care for loved ones in an impossible timeframe 3. Fear of Death Is Driving Suffering How fear delays important conversations and planning Why people often come onto hospice services far too late The impact of denial and avoidance around death in modern culture How fear prevents families from learning the skills they need Why death is not just a medical experience — it is a deeply human one The Hope: Education Changes Everything Suzanne shares how compassionate education, preparation, and support can transform the end-of-life experience for both the dying person and their loved ones. For the past 16 years, the Doulagivers Institute https://doulagivers.com has been offering free family caregiver education to help empower people with the skills, understanding, and confidence needed to care for loved ones at the end of life. The free Level 1 Family Caregiver Training is now available in 15 languages and includes: The Doulagivers 3 Phases of End of Life Framework A live interactive teaching experience A downloadable workbook Guidance on how to physically, emotionally, and spiritually support someone at end of life Practical caregiver education families can use immediately Save Your Spot for the FREE Live Training This training is offered live and interactively — there are no replays.

It is a human one.” “When we teach people how to care for one another at the end of life, we don't just change death — we change humanity.” Connect with Suzanne B.

Start Your Transformation Now  In this episode of The Jim Fortin Podcast, Jim Fortin delivers an unflinching look at a truth most people never stop to examine, that the life they are living was not one they consciously chose. Drawing on decades of work in subconscious transformation, Jim makes the case that every belief a person holds about who they are, what they deserve, and what is possible was handed to them before they could ever question it. From family and religion to government, media, and the school system, Jim breaks down how every major institution has a vested interest in keeping people small, compliant, and dependent.  Using the striking example of North Korea, where citizens are so conditioned they don't recognize they are living in a prison. Jim draws a direct parallel to the invisible walls most people in the Western world inhabit without ever seeing. The most dangerous prison, he argues, is the one with no walls at all. And the deepest form of this conditioning isn't political or religious — it is ontological. It is the lie that you are a small, limited physical being, when the truth of who you are is something far more vast than you have ever been allowed to believe.  If you have ever felt stuck without knowing exactly why, this conversation is where understanding begins. Listen closely.  What You'll Discover in This Episode:  (01:53) You were born into a story you didn't write — How the beliefs and limitations most people carry were already running before they took their first breath, inherited from family, culture, and institutions they never chose.  (05:52) The most dangerous prison has no walls — Why the conditioning that keeps people trapped is invisible from the inside, and how defending the very system that brainwashed you is one of its most telling signs.  (09:46) The illusions keeping you trapped were engineered — How governments, religions, corporations, and media share a common interest in keeping people obedient, dependent, and cut off from their own sovereign power.  (17:56) The most damaging brainwashing is ontological — Why the deepest lie is about the very nature of your being, and how you were conditioned to believe you are far smaller than you actually are.  (26:06) The core lie that keeps you playing small — Why every major system runs on one central belief that you are small, and why escaping it requires awareness, not techniques.  Listen, apply, and enjoy!  Transformational Takeaway  You did not choose the story you were handed. The beliefs running your life — about money, your body, what you deserve, and what is possible — were given to you by systems that needed you to stay small. That is not your truth. It never was. The work is not to fight the brainwashing or shame yourself for having been in it — every single one of us has been. The work is simply to become aware of it. Because the moment you can see the prison, you are already standing outside of it.  Let's Connect:  Instagram | Facebook | YouTube | LinkedIn  LIKED THE EPISODE?  If you're the kind of person who likes to help others, then share this with your friends and family.

Ever feel like everything you've been through should mean something… but you've never been shown what?In this episode, I'm breaking open what your life experiences have been preparing you for—and why nothing you've lived through is random, wasted, or disconnected from where you're headed next.Because the truth is, your experiences aren't just memories or “chapters of your life.” They've been quietly shaping how you think, how you see people, how you solve problems, and the natural strengths you carry without even realizing it.I'm breaking down how your hardest moments are often the exact places your influence is formed, why what you've survived is never meaningless, and how your life has been building direction in you even when you didn't understand it at the time.The Truth I'm revealing:• Why your life experiences are not random or wasted• How everything you've lived through is shaping your strengths and perspective• Why the things you survived are often where your influence is born• The connection between your experiences, your voice, and your value• Why what feels “normal” to you is often what impacts others the most• How to start seeing what your life has actually been preparing you forIf you've ever looked at your life and thought, “Why did I go through all of this?”—this episode is going to shift how you see it.Because I'm not here to help you rewrite your past.I'm here to help you recognize what it's been building in you all along.What you've lived through isn't random.It's formative.And once you see that… you stop doubting what you carry.Explore trainings, resources, and coaching at ⁠missytolley.com⁠#LifePurpose #LifeExperience #PersonalGrowth #SpiritualGrowth #SelfDiscovery #HealingJourney #MindsetShift #InnerWork #PurposeDriven #SpiritualEntrepreneur #TraumaToPurpose #MindsetCoach #SoulWork #HealingAndGrowth #OnlineBusinessMindset #PurposeWork #SpiritualAwakening #SelfAwareness #GrowthMindset #MeaningOfLife

Tanner shares how he built his career by treating art like any other skill in the brain—showing up daily, doing master copies, and effectively creating his own “atelier” when formal schools weren't an option. He urges artists to paint what they genuinely love instead of chasing trends or specific collectors, trusting that sincere, well-crafted work will find its audience. A big part of his advice is to start paintings over and over to strengthen composition and value design, build or initiate community (from family collectors to plein air groups), and maintain multiple income streams through galleries, direct sales, teaching, and educational content. He also emphasizes persistence—reaching out repeatedly to mentors, reinventing yourself socially when needed, and committing to be “the last one standing” in the long game of artistic mastery. Finally, Tanner closes by mentioning current and upcoming projects, including his 100 Flowers Sale, a group show at Saks Galleries, an Art Renewal Center piece showing at Sotheby's, workshops in Rome through Rome Art Residencies, and a future painting workshop along the Danube River cruise.Tanner's Sale!:tannersteedart.com/collections/228563Tanner's FASO site:tannersteedart.com/Tanner's Social Media:instagram.com/tannersteedart/Tanner's YouTube:youtube.com/@tannersteedart

That quiet nudge that whispers, maybe alcohol isn't serving me anymore—what if that feeling is an invitation? In this honest and grace-filled conversation, sobriety coach and author Christy Osborne shares her story of choosing sobriety and how it led her into a life she never imagined possible. You are not alone in your struggle, and freedom is closer than you think. Christy's relationship with alcohol looked nothing like what most people picture. She was a "normal drinker"—a sorority girl, a law student, building a beautiful life in London. But over the years, alcohol quietly took on new jobs: social lubricant, stress reliever, coping mechanism. After the devastating loss of her mother—who passed away from alcohol-related illness—Christy found herself masking her grief behind a glamorous Instagram feed and a glass of champagne. On the second anniversary of her mother's death, everything changed. Christy shares what God taught her through that breaking point, how she discovered the science behind why alcohol hijacks our brains and our bodies, and why she now believes that sobriety isn't a loss—it's the greatest gift she's ever given herself. She is the author of Love Life Sober, a 40-day alcohol fast rooted in Scripture, neuroscience, and practical coaching that has helped women in the US and UK renew their minds and rediscover joy. We talk honestly about the ways alcohol quietly creeps into everyday life, why moderation is so much harder than we think, and how the lie that "sober life is boring" keeps so many women stuck. Christy also shares the simple mindset shift that changes everything: approaching sobriety with curiosity instead of fear. Host Allie Marie Smith also opens up about her own decision at 21—a moment she credits as God-given wisdom—to push a glass of wine away and never look back, and how that one choice spared her from a path of real heartache. If you've ever felt that little nudge, if you've tried to cut back and can't, if you're tired of the anxiety and the regret, or if you simply wonder whether there's more for you on the other side of alcohol—this episode is your gentle invitation to find out. There is no judgment here. There is no condemnation here. God wants you well—spiritually, mentally, and physically—and this conversation is a reminder that you are not alone, and that a freer, fuller life is possible.

In a special Women's History Month episode, City Bar President Muhammad Faridi speaks with Judge Bianka Perez, an associate justice of the New York Supreme Court and president of the Supreme Court Justices Association. Judge Perez speaks about her path to the bench – her roots as a Bronx paralegal and office manager, through night classes at New York Law School, and a legal practice serving both her intellectual ambitions and her commitment to supporting her community. Perez discusses how private practice shaped her perspective on judicial empathy, how her Dominican heritage and role models influence her leadership and service, and how mentoring students is a priority. She addresses the difficulty of rulings constrained by statute and precedent, coping with the stress of judging, and defines success as making history and lifting the next generation of Latina leaders.

# Navigating Empathy in Recovery: Insights from Real ConversationsDiscover how empathy evolves in recovery. Learn compassionate insights and practical advice from real-life experiences shared on the Recovery Unfiltered Podcast.When we talk about recovery, one question often arises: "How does empathy change as we navigate our journey?" In this post, we'll explore insights from a recent episode of the Recovery Unfiltered Podcast, where hosts delve into the nature of empathy and its impact on recovery, sharing personal stories and practical advice for those on the same path.## Understanding Empathy in RecoveryEmpathy is a crucial component of the recovery journey. It allows individuals to connect with one another on a deeper level, fostering understanding and support. In our podcast episode, we discuss how empathy evolves as we gain experience and face various hardships.### The Role of Life Experience in Deepening Empathy- **The Conventional Thinking:** Many believe that empathy is inherent and remains static throughout life. - **What We Discovered:** However, our discussion revealed that as individuals endure life's challenges, their capacity for empathy often grows. This growth is attributed to increased emotional maturity and a better understanding of others' pain. - **Why It Matters:** Recognizing this shift can help individuals in recovery understand their feelings and reactions towards others, allowing them to provide better support.- **How to Apply It:** Reflect on your past experiences and consider how they shape your understanding of others today. ### Compassion vs. Absorbing Pain- **The Nuance of Empathy:** While empathy can manifest as compassion, it can also lead to absorbing others' pain, which can be overwhelming. - **Discussion Insights:** Our hosts highlighted the importance of recognizing the difference: compassion involves supporting someone without taking on their emotional burden. - **Why It Matters:** Understanding this distinction helps individuals maintain their well-being while supporting others in recovery. - **Actionable Tip:** Create boundaries to ensure that while you offer support, you also protect your emotional health.### Personal Stories of Empathy in Action- **Real Conversations:** Throughout the podcast, personal anecdotes illustrate the evolution of empathy in recovery. For instance, one host shared a story about witnessing a friend in pain and wanting to help but also needing to protect his own emotions. - **Key Insight:** This shared experience resonates with many in recovery, emphasizing that it's okay to feel compassion without becoming overwhelmed. - **Takeaway:** Use your experiences to foster empathy; they can help you connect with others on a deeper level.## Key Takeaways- Empathy evolves through experiences, especially in recovery. - It's vital to distinguish between compassion and absorbing another's pain. - Sharing personal stories can foster deeper connections and understanding in recovery.In conclusion, navigating empathy in recovery is complex yet essential. As you reflect on your journey and the experiences of others, remember to balance compassion with self-care. If you want to explore more about recovery and empathy, listen to the full episode of the Recovery Unfiltered Podcast. ---### Frequently Asked Questions**H3: How does empathy change during the recovery process?** Empathy often deepens as individuals gain life experience and understand the struggles of others more profoundly.

People keep writing obituaries for organic content. And every time, communicators chase the paid shortcuts instead of doing the work. Now, as AI-generated content floods every platform, those who abandoned organic are realizing they have nothing to fall back on. In this episode of The Trending Communicator, host Dan Nestle sits down with Dorien Morin-van Dam, owner of More in Media and host of the Strategy Talks podcast, to dig into whether an organic-first philosophy can survive the AI era. With over 15 years of experience in community building and social media strategy—plus an Agile Marketing certification—Dorien has spent her career defending organic content not as nostalgia, but as strategy. From the early days of Facebook groups in Myrtle Beach to Reddit brand management and the community-first model flipping the old course-then-community approach on its head, Dorien and Dan explore what systematic approaches to content actually look like when everyone has access to the same generative tools. They dig into why brands that leaned too hard on AI are already feeling the reckoning, and why live content may be the last frontier that nobody can fake. Listen in and hear about... Why community is the ultimate expression of organic strategy The shift from course-first to community-first business models How community content is reshaping brand reputation and AI search visibility Why live content is the new competitive moat against AI The difference between being creative and becoming a creator Notable Quotes from Dorien Morin-van Dam "Anything that you don't pay for is organic. So if you're still talking to people, organic is not dead." "If you have a thought in your mind, you wake up at 4am and you think about something in your business—that is a LinkedIn post. That is something that AI can't do." "Creating something because you think it's a good business opportunity—creating a community around that, it's going to tank because you're not authentic." "That's the last frontier. You can't copy me live. You can make an AI avatar, but you're not going to have my thoughts live unless I'm there." "The worst strategic mistake that you can make is trying to be something that you're not. And that's the downfall—we're seeing people using AI improperly, and it's all crumbling down."

This is a preview of a premium episode from the Patreon feed, TIYA After Dark! Head to patreon.com/thisisyourafterlife to hear this full episode and all the others for just $5 a month.I use my coma as the central metaphor of This Is Your Afterlife to discover the moments that transformed my guests' lives, but is there a more transformative life experience than a coma? What's the MOST transformative life experience? This is the question we answer in this week's TIYA After Dark, Bracketology: Transformative Life Experiences."We" is several members of K.C. Redheart, my first improv team in Chicago at the Playground Theater: brilliant standup Meaghan Strickland, stupid (compliment) sketch comedian and improviser Bill Stern, and the very funny Nick Leveski (who improvises in Richmond, VA) and Mark "Huberman." These are some of my closest friends and oldest comedy collaborators, going back to 2008!Bracketology is a game show format we created where we a) pick a topic, b) fill a bracket with examples of that topic, and c) argue the matchups in the bracket until we crown a winner. The thing is, the winner of Bracketology is the quintessential example of the topic, NOT necessarily the "best" or our favorite example.If you want to follow along from the beginning without knowing the outcome of each match, here are the top 6 seeds we determined before the episode started:ComaHave KidsEpiphany — Drug-Induced, Art-Related ("See Fall Out Boy at Ryman"), Spiritual Awakening, Ego Death, Cultural (International Travel or Try New Food Whoa It's Good)SobrietyHad EnoughBig MoveI hope you love listening as much as we loved doing this.

On my own journey of connecting with myself and everything else, I find everything to seem richer and clearer and just more fulfilling. The base level pleasures of life don't satisfy as much. So when this book came across my desk, I was immediately interested. The book is, Undimmed: The Eight Awarenesses For Freedom from Unwanted Habits. The author is mother, investor, advocate, and founder, Cecily Mak. Cecily says she is devoted to helping people live dimmer-free, with clarity, courage, and the freedom to change without stigma or shame. Her story started with realizing she was using alcohol to dim her life, but our focus is no alcohol. It's any number of things we engage with that dim our lives. Think of what you turn to when you have a moment of freedom. Instead of being fully present in the moment and taking in the beauties and glories and realness of life, you fill it with what? Social media? A book or podcast, whether entertainment or self-help. Just being productive and getting something done? Buying things? Food, entertainment, and even exercise can be the fillers. Anything and everything other than being fully present and clear. In this episode I dig in with Cecily on the topic. We don't even get into the specifics of her "Eight Awarenesses For Freedom from Unwanted Habits," so before we start, I want to give them to you: 1 My Life Is Better Clear 2 I Choose What I Consume 3 My Intuition Defines My Priorities 4 My Trauma Isn't My Identity  5 Forgiveness and Letting Go Are on the Path to Liberation   6 I Do Not Judge or Impose My Orientations Upon Others 7 Time Is Our Most Precious Currency 8 I Seek Ways to Support Others The book is Undimmed: The Eight Awarenesses For Freedom from Unwanted Habits and you can connect with Cecily on Instagram @clearlifejourney Sign up for your $1/month trial period at shopify.com/kevin Go to shipstation.com and use code KEVIN to start your free trial.

In this episode, we cover: Why sharing your real, messy, and sometimes painful experiences can become the most powerful way to build trust and authority—not just with your audience, but with yourself.

How working with someone like Marcela Gamboa is different from using AI or a standard writing template. What is the real value in honoring your personal voice and vision? Why many women think their stories aren't worthy, and how to move past those barriers to create something truly meaningful.

I'm excited to be back in Chicago after an EPIC European holiday and Joe Funk  of Kitchen Dwellers is back for a second round with me on Roadcase for this week's episode!  Joe's always down for a fun conversation, and he not only talks to me about his growing family, but also about the impact of Kitchen Dwellers steady rise over the past decade of grinding it out on the road, and how band member roles are constantly changing and evolving… in a good way. The Dwellers latest album, Seven Devils, is an intriguing ode to Dante's Inferno — a concept album that ultimately found its conceptual direction pulled — literally — from the depths of Hell. It's a heady concept that only a heady band such as the Dwellers could have pulled off, and they nailed it.It's always fun to have Joe on the show — he's smart, personable, and very much aware of his own role and how it's evolved over time. The Dwellers are out on the road this Winter and coming to a Western ski town near you, so go check out this extraordinary (and trippy) band of brothers!!====================================Episode Chapters: 00:00 Episode Intro with Host Josh Rosenberg04:27 Technical Challenges and Introductions07:28 Parenthood and Personal Growth10:25 Life on the Road and Family Dynamics13:30 Nature and Environment16:35 Transitioning in Music Career19:21 Creative Processes and Challenges22:25 Inspiration and Life Events27:37 Maintaining Emotional Connections Through Technology29:16 The Journey of Growth in Music30:10 Taking Risks for Production Quality31:47 The Benefits of a Steady Climb33:18 The Challenges of Sudden Fame34:35 Investing in Future Success36:37 Creative Collaboration in Music39:48 The Evolution of Improvisation44:09 Conceptualizing the New Album48:57 Differences in Album Production Styles53:15 Navigating the Balance of Jamming and Structure56:21 The Unique Charm of Bluegrass Bands56:37 Pine Creek: A Growing Music Venue1:00:18 Themed Performances and Creative Shows01:04:28 Meal Prepping and Culinary Adventures01:07:51 New Music and Upcoming Projects01:10:52 Episode Outro with Host Josh Rosenberg====================================For Kitchen Dwellers tour dates, click hereFor more information on Roadcase:https://linktr.ee/roadcasepod and https://www.roadcasepod.comOr contact Roadcase by email:  info@roadcasepod.comRoadcase theme music:  "Eugene (Instrumental)" by Waltzer

In this episode, my guest is Dr. Michael Kilgard, PhD, a professor of neuroscience at the University of Texas at Dallas and a leading expert on neuroplasticity and learning across the lifespan. We discuss the need for alertness, effortful focus, post-learning reflection and sleep to induce neuroplasticity, and how dopamine, acetylcholine, serotonin and norepinephrine are each involved. He explains the behavioral steps for neuroplasticity, as well as vagal nerve stimulation (VNS) and other therapies for tinnitus, stroke, depression, PTSD and paralysis. This episode ought to be of use to anyone interested in understanding the modern science of brain rewiring and learning to improve cognitive or motor skills or treat sensory or motor disorders.
