When Ovid was exiled from Rome to a border town on the Black Sea, he despaired at his bleak and barbarous new surroundings. Like many Greeks and Romans, Ovid thought the outer reaches of his world was where civilization ceased to exist. Our own fascination with the Greek and Roman world has for centuries followed this perspective, shrouding cultures at the far reaches of their influence in myth. But what was it like to live on the edges of these empires, on the boundaries of the known world? In The Far Edges of the Known World (W.W. Norton & Company, 2025) ancient historian Owen Rees draws on archaeological excavations to reveal these so-called borders as thriving multicultural spaces. This is where the boundaries of “civilized” and “barbarian” began to dissipate; where traditional rules didn't always apply; where different cultures intermarried; and where nomadic tribes built their own cities. Transporting readers through historical spheres of influence, Rees journeys from the sandy caravan routes of Morocco to the freezing winters of the northern Black Sea, from the Red River valley of Vietnam to the rain-lashed forts south of Hadrian's Wall. Beyond well-remembered figures like Cleopatra and Caesar, Rees introduces us to the everyday people who called the borderlands home. We meet an enterprising sex worker in Egypt's Naucratis, gambling soldiers at Hadrian's Wall in England, a Greco-Buddhist monk hailing from the Ganges, and more. As Rees shows, exchanges of trends, ideas, even religious practices were happening all over the world. Learn more about your ad choices.

Click here now to access the tool > ‍ How to Break Free from the Good Girl Cage Have you ever ticked all the boxes of success — career, family, achievements — yet felt a quiet voice inside whispering “this isn't really me”? ‍ That's the cage many ambitious women find themselves in: invisible, self-imposed, and often built from years of people-pleasing and perfectionism. ‍ In this episode of The Brilliant Business Book Festival, I'm excited to be joined by Katia Vlachos, reinvention coach and author of the book, Uncaged. ‍ Katia shares how she broke free from her own “good girl” conditioning and how you can begin dismantling your own bars … one choice at a time. ‍ This episode is a must-listen if you've ever felt stuck, small, or secretly craving a life that feels more like your own. ‍ ‍ Prefer to WATCH instead of read? https://www.youtube.com/@melittacampbell ‍ ‍ “Breaking free doesn't make life harder — it makes everything feel more natural, aligned, and effortless.” – Katia Vlachos ‍ The Cage We Don't See For Katia, the “good girl” cage began in childhood: saying ‘Yes' when really she wanted to say ‘No!', striving for approval, and sacrificing her own needs to meet others' expectations. ‍ And yet, as she explains, cages aren't external — they live in our minds. The longer we stay inside them, the more natural they feel. ‍ ‍ Why We Stay Stuck Katia identifies three main fears that keep women caged: ‍ Fear of the unknown: “Do I really have what it takes?” Fear of failure: “What if I lose everything I've built?” “What will people think?” ‍ Fear of disappointing others: “What will people think?” ‍ But she reminds us that reinvention doesn't mean burning everything down. It's often about building a bridge from where you are now to where you long to be. ‍ ‍ “You don't have to be a ‘good girl' or a ‘bad girl' — you get to be your girl, living by your own rules and values.” – Katia Vlachos ‍ ‍ The First Step Toward Freedom Awareness is always the beginning. Katia calls it “noticing the bars of your invisible cage.” And the signs are there once you stop and tune into how you feel. For example, your clues might be the discomfort of agreeing to something that doesn't feel right, or the guilt that surfaces when you prioritise yourself. From there, the key question becomes: What do I want instead? Even if it feels hard to answer, that's where freedom begins. ‍ ‍ The Power of Support Breaking free isn't something you have to do alone. Katia encourages finding even one person who truly sees you and supports your reinvention. As she shares, being witnessed — whether in a coaching relationship, a women's circle, or a trusted friendship — is a powerful catalyst for transformation. ‍ Life Beyond the Cage Freedom doesn't look like rebellion. It looks like an alignment. Katia describes life beyond the cage as more natural and flowing. Decisions feel lighter. Visibility becomes less daunting. And self-compassion acts as the net that makes risk-taking possible, because even if you stumble, you know you'll have your own back. ‍ A Final Thought to Reflect On You don't need a dramatic turning point to step into your next chapter. Often, it starts with the smallest moments of awareness, followed by one brave choice. So ask yourself: Where might you already be holding the keys to your own cage? ‍ Want to explore what this could look like for you? ‍Learn more about the ways you can work with Melitta Campbell to uncover your Value Sweet Spot to market, sell and grow your business confidently, and always on your terms.

[Acts 20:7-12] We need the revelation of Gods word and relation with Gods people

We all face storms in life. Join Pastor Dwayne as he explains that the storms we go through will help us in the long run as we allow God to work in our lives.

Sabrina built a thriving business around helping others go viral, but she also experienced the anxiety, burnout, and pressure that can come with chasing metrics. She shares her journey of moving beyond the comparison trap, creating without boundaries, and learning to view social media as a tool rather than the end goal. Sabrina and Bjork also discuss the two powerful tools that have transformed her creative process (and life!) and Sabrina's practical advice for simplifying content creation and using tools like ChatGPT effectively — all while staying grounded and joyful in your work. Whether you're a seasoned creator or just starting out, this episode will help you reconnect with your creativity, quiet your inner critic, and redefine success on your own terms. Three episode takeaways: How to redefine success — As a creator, it can be really easy to define success by the number of pageviews, followers, or likes you get. But churning out more and more content in service of those goals can be stressful and lead to burnout. It can also zap your creativity! In this episode, Sabrina explains how to refocus your workflow to emphasize joy and authenticity, not just numbers. Two exercises that will transform your creativity — Sabrina explains two exercises she has incorporated into her life — morning pages and artist dates — that help reconnect with your inner child and creative self. How to avoid burnout — Sabrina shares how she works with clients to reorganize their content strategy with pillars, ChatGPT prompts, and mindful creation to avoid burnout.

Hey yall! In this episode, I'm getting real about the pressures we face as women to hit certain milestones by a certain age, getting married, having kids, “settling down”, and how exhausting it is to feel like you're running against a clock. I talk about why life doesn't magically end at 25, why being single can actually be the most empowering time of your life, and why rushing into relationships or marriage just to “keep up” will never make you happy.I also get into the way social media fuels comparison, how people project their own insecurities onto you, and why it's so important to block out the noise so you can actually enjoy where you're at right now. We touch on the realities of parenthood (and why it's not something to take lightly), breaking free from outdated timelines, and fully embracing your individuality.Bottom line: stop letting society convince you you're behind, you're not!!

Hey Gorgeous Soul,This is an important episode.  One that I haven't felt was the time to share till now.In Dec 2023.  I completed what was a very challenging journey of ancestral karmic liberation for my entire lineage.  It took me processing the effects and burdens of others, including the effects of karmic dumping, soul entrapment and bindings of 48 generations.  Taking me back to the fall of Egypt.The process started like it does for many.  Due to a death or event.  Mine started as my parents died.  Which activated events out of no where.  Suddenly I was ploughing through dense heavy energies and their effects...yet nothing had changed in my environment.  Instead of allowing this to defeat me.  I took another route.  One of alchemy and soul embodiment.  Deep shadow work and relentless effort to stay steps ahead.  What was meant to stop me...strengthened me.  My abilities to track energy, events and get to the roots with ease to pull down the house of cards...was honed through this initiation.Completing this not only broke the cycles.  It fully liberated me.  What I have now discovered is the roots and tethers for much of the ancestral cycles is karmic overlays at higher dimensional levels of the soul matrix.  Get to these roots and the whole lineage gets freed.  No more cycles.  No more healing loops.  No more being bogged down by actions you never took.We're not here to be enslaved.  It's time humanity broke the chains and accelerated their healing and alchemy timelines.  Now we can create not endlessly be clearing.Want my support...Reach out here: www.alleradawn.comWant to get started now.  Get back in the driving seat, empowered, liberated, sovereign and free: https://www.alleradawn.com/masterclass-live1732030414177IG: iamalleradawnYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@alleradawn

Worship Director Justin Jackson continues our Ecclesiastes series.What if the letdowns in life are actually beautiful invitations? Ecclesiastes 7 flips our expectations upside down, showing that mourning shapes us more than laughter, and legacy matters more than luxury.We chase control, comfort, and clarity, but every human scheme eventually fails. And that's the gift. Because in surrendering our plans, we begin to trust the One who made us for more than life under the sun. This message is an honest, poetic, and deeply hopeful reminder that the best things for us may not be the easiest, but they're always eternal.Thank you for listening to this message from Northwest Hills Community Church in Corvallis, Oregon, on July 20, 2025, at 10:15am.
