AmberAmber opens up about growing up feeling different and self-conscious, discovering alcohol at a young age, and later developing a dependence on cocaine that quickly escalated from social use into a destructive cycle.

It starts here. It starts with Mary.
The podcast returns to its own channel with a 2026 reset: a clearer lane for each part of my output so the main YouTube channel can stay focused on harmony/theory-based lessons, while the podcast and live/performance content live on their own separate channels. I outline six recording projects I'm aiming to track across the year, share a packed touring schedule (US, Japan, Europe, Asia), and talk through a more realistic approach to tour gear—from compact boards to MIDI control, flight cases, and what I actually use on gigs.In this episodeWhy the podcast is back on the podcast-dedicated YouTube channelThe 3-lane restructure for 2026:Main channel = harmony/bass lesson contentPodcast channel = long-form conversation + gear talkClips channel = live performance, studio, behind-the-scenesThe “why” behind the shift: reduce stress, increase clarity, serve each audience betterThe six album/projects Janek is planning to track in 2026Touring: how the volume is increasing in 2026 and what that means with family lifeA candid look at saying “yes” vs “no” as a working musician, and how that advice changes by age/career stageGear logistics: what's realistic to fly with, compact boards, and why “small but powerful” wins on the roadCompact rig idea: Walrus Mantle + HX StompTesting rigs on warm-up gigs before international runsNew Gator / Vertex case system and a compact board build planMIDI control with a Morningstar MC4 The honest truth: on many gigs, only a fraction of the pedalboard gets usedHow the harmony/triads videos unexpectedly clicked, and why that success triggered the restructureThe role of Substack: the hub where people can choose what to watch/listen toLinks Mentioned in the Episode- Main Channel Triad Video 0 and Triad Video 1- Clips Channel- Podcast Channel- SBL MIchael Jackson Cover Get full access to Janek's Newsletter at janekgwizdala.substack.com/subscribe
Something happens when we truly encounter Jesus.In this first sermon of the Encounters with Christ series, John Gunter explores John chapter 6 and the feeding of the crowd. The people follow Jesus because they were filled physically. Jesus calls them to something deeper. He points them beyond temporary provision and declares Himself to be the Bread of Life.This message invites us to look honestly at our own hearts. Are we seeking Jesus for what we can receive, or are we willing to be transformed by who He is? God does not merely satisfy surface-level needs. He offers life, renewal, and eternal hope.Key Themes:The difference between provision and transformationThe danger of chasing temporary satisfactionJesus as the true Bread of LifeA call to respond personally to Christ

There's a lot of noise right now about calming your nervous system and staying regulated — and for many of us, that creates more pressure than peace.In this solo episode, I gently unpack what nervous system regulation actually means, why staying calm isn't the goal, and how midlife and perimenopause can shift the way your system responds to stress.I also introduce a simple metaphor to help you understand what's really going on inside your body — and why so many of us feel stuck, reactive, or exhausted without knowing why.This episode is an invitation to pause, notice, and begin to understand what your nervous system has been trying to tell you.In this episode, we explore:How to recognise the signs of coping vs. true regulationWhy stress isn't the enemyHow your nervous system responds to everyday lifeA powerful metaphor to help you notice what state you're inWhat starts to shift when you can name it, instead of judge itDownload 15 Breaths to Calm Anxiety - a FREE 5 minute audio to calm you down in real time.

Most people think they have nothing interesting to say.They assume their life is ordinary. Their work is boring. Their stories don't matter.But that's almost never true.In this episode, Macy sits down with Ashley Renders — a former journalist turned storytelling expert — to unpack why so many smart, capable people struggle with content… and what's actually missing.Ashley spent years interviewing people for a living. And what she learned is this: the problem usually isn't a lack of experiences or ideas. It's that no one ever taught people HOW to see WHAT is interesting.Now, she helps business owners do the same thing — not by being louder or more dramatic, but by understanding how stories actually work.This conversation was recorded live, which means you'll hear real-time insight, nuance, and the kind of depth that only shows up when thoughtful people are in the room together.In this episode, we cover:What storytelling actually is (and what people usually misunderstand)Why stories work so well in business content — especially compared to tips aloneWhy some stories stop people mid-scroll while others fall flatThe most common mistakes business owners make when trying to “add stories” to their contentHow to recognize what's actually story-worthy in your everyday lifeA simple way to turn moments, experiences, and beliefs into compelling storiesHow to use AI to enhance storytelling without losing your voiceBecause the cheat code to content isn't posting more...And once you learn how to notice, reflect, and tell the truth about the life you're already living — you never wonder what to say again.✨ Links & Resources

Ever finish a day where everything technically worked: you followed your calendar, checked the boxes, nothing went wrong, but you still felt completely drained?

In this episode, Don McGray, product marketing leader and Head of Growth PMM at Vimeo (formerly Dropbox and Airtable), shares how to separate identity from performance without dialing down ambition. From being told his launch plan was “C-plus work” to navigating a surprise layoff, Don shares the inner-game shifts that helped him rebuild trust, make cleaner calls, and keep moving in high-stakes environments.Don gets specific about executive alignment (and the invisible pre-meeting “backchannel”), the moment he realized he was in the wrong role—and said it out loud—and why cultivating distance from work (and toward real hobbies) made him a steadier operator when pressure spiked.In this conversation, you'll learn:How to detach self-worth from outcomes so feedback, layoffs, and big swings don't break your momentum.How to earn executive buy-in before “the meeting” and turn harsh input into an actionable A-grade plan.How to diagnose a role misfit early, have the hard conversation, and land where your strengths actually compound.Things to listen for:(00:00) Intro(02:10) Don's early career(04:37) High stakes and career growth at Dropbox(09:42) Thank you to our sponsor, Navattic(13:50) Lessons from Airtable: handling tough feedback(18:31) Navigating executive expectations(25:04) Facing imposter syndrome(25:25) Struggles in a new role(28:19) The importance of vulnerability(30:10) Navigating career changes(38:32) Handling layoffs and job insecurity(42:58) Balancing work and personal lifeA huge thanks to this episode's sponsor:Navattic: Interactive Product Demo Software - https://navattic.com/value Resources:Connect with Don: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/donmcgray/ Connect with Andrew:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrewcapland/ Substack: https://media.deliveringvalue.coHire Andrew as your coach: https://deliveringvalue.co/coachingJoin Growth OS: https://deliveringvalue.co/growth-operating-system

Ramont and Reese decided “Why not gather the whole crew and risk our friendships on air?”So for this FRIENDSGIVING special, they invited the people who know them best and talk the most trash to sit around the mics and let the drama simmer like mac and cheese that took too long in the oven.This episode is a front-row seat to the beautifully dysfunctional, over-opinionated, ride-or-die circus that Ramont & Reese proudly call “framily.” Expect loud laughter, louder truths, a lil shade, a few exposed secrets, and at least one moment someone will deny ever happened.The cast? ICONIC.Featuring: Moyatu (by royal decree, first), Aaron, Antonio, Keenan, Liam, Omari, and Shaq...the brave, unfiltered, slightly reckless individuals who showed up ready to expose EVERYBODY… including themselves!!!This FRIENDSGIVING special is what would happen if:A group chat came to lifeA holiday dinner turned into a reunion episodeTherapy got drunkAnd love + chaos decided to cohostBuckle up.

Send us a textIn this episode of the Gotta Be Saints Podcast, I sit down with Dr. Michael Pakaluk — husband, father of 15, philosopher, and author of The Shock of Holiness: Finding the Romance of Everyday Life.We talk about the beauty of the Catholic faith, why holiness is both deeply attractive and deeply demanding, and how God meets us in the very ordinary, sometimes messy, details of daily life.From stories about daily Mass with small children, to reflections on his late wife Ruth (now a Servant of God), to a mind-blowing insight into Jesus walking on water and the Eucharist, this conversation will help you see your own life with new eyes.About Dr. Michael PakalukProfessor of Political Economy at the Catholic University of America (Bush School of Business)Philosopher and scholar, especially in the thought of AristotleAuthor of 14 books (with more on the way!) and father of 15 childrenWidower of Ruth Pakaluk, whose cause for canonization has begun, and husband of Catherine Pakaluk, author of Hannah's ChildrenIn this episode, we talk about:The beauty of the Catholic faithWhy holiness is so attractive — and so uncomfortableRuth's story and the reality of heroic holinessThe universal call to holiness in ordinary lifeThe romance of everyday lifeA fresh look at the Eucharist and transubstantiationHow to actually live this outGet the Book
Your plant-based practice isn't limited by your motivation, your recipes, or your compassion — it's limited by its weakest link. In this episode, Michele explores the Theory of Constraints and how a single bottleneck can shape your vegan practice, your daily choices, and even your confidence.Using a classic car-factory example, Michele breaks down how systems stall when one step is overloaded — and how the same thing happens in our own lives. Whether you're starting, restarting, or re-energizing your vegan journey, identifying the real constraint (the one you may be avoiding) can unlock ease, momentum, and clarity.Michele also shares one of her own constraints around visibility and asking listeners to share the show — modeling how naming a bottleneck creates a path forward.If you've been overthinking your vegan practice, trying to “fix” everything except the thing that truly needs attention, this episode will help you locate the actual sticking point and begin addressing it gently and effectively.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeWhy your vegan practice is only as strong as its weakest linkWhat the Theory of Constraints (TOC) is, and how it applies to everyday lifeA simple, memorable manufacturing example that explains TOC in actionThe difference between optimizing what's already working vs. addressing the real bottleneckHow micro-constraints like breakfast indecision, social discomfort, or evening exhaustion quietly limit your progressWhy perfectionism is often the real constraintHow to identify your personal bottleneck without overwhelmMichele's own visibility constraint — and how naming it opens a path to growthWhy “how you go vegan is how you do everything” applies directly to constraint-breakingEpisode Highlights“A system is only as strong as its slowest step — and your vegan practice is no different.”“Fifty cookbooks won't help if the real constraint is evening exhaustion.”“Knowledge isn't the bottleneck if what you truly need is social courage.”“Perfectionism isn't a strategy — it's a constraint.”“You don't need to fix everything. You only need to fix the part that's actually stuck.”“How you go vegan is how you do everything.”Try This This WeekIdentify one bottleneck in your plant-based practice:What moment of the day creates friction?Where do you feel the most self-conscious or unsupported?Which small step are you avoiding?What emotion leads you to choose convenience over intention?Choose one constraint and gently place your attention there — not on all the other things that feel imperfect.Subscribe & Review:If you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe and leave a review on your favorite podcast platform.

SpaceTime with Stuart Gary | Astronomy, Space & Science News
In this episode of SpaceTime, we delve into groundbreaking discoveries that could reshape our understanding of life on Mars and the cosmos beyond.Martian Ice: A Potential Reservoir for LifeA recent study suggests that Martian ice may be the most promising location to search for signs of ancient microbial life. Researchers found that biomolecules from dormant microbes degrade significantly slower in pure water ice compared to Martian soil mixtures. This discovery, published in the journal Astrobiology, raises hopes that future missions to Mars could uncover preserved organic materials in its icy regions, potentially revealing the planet's biological history.A Mysterious Dark Object in the UniverseAstronomers have identified the lowest mass dark object ever detected, with a mass about a million times that of our Sun. This enigmatic object, reported in Nature Astronomy, may offer insights into the nature of dark matter, which constitutes a significant portion of the universe's mass. The object was detected through gravitational lensing, and its small size challenges existing theories about dark matter's composition and distribution.NASA's Call for Lunar Mission BidsNASA is seeking new bids for its Artemis Moon program, aiming to foster competition among American companies to return humans to the lunar surface. With ongoing delays from SpaceX, NASA Administrator Sean Duffy emphasizes the urgency of the mission as the U.S. races against China to achieve lunar exploration milestones. The upcoming Artemis missions promise to be pivotal in establishing a sustainable human presence on the Moon.November Skywatch with Jonathan Nallywww.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesAstrobiology Journalhttps://www.liebertpub.com/journals/astrobiology/1Nature Astronomyhttps://www.nature.com/natureastronomy/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-your-guide-to-space-astronomy--2458531/support.Martian Ice: A Potential Reservoir for LifeA Mysterious Dark Object in the UniverseNASA's Call for Lunar Mission Bids
