Podcasts about Lifelong learning

In this episode of "Cocoon Conversations" on the Career Flipper podcast, I, Jenny Dempsey, take you along on my career journey.  This year, I've committed to opening up about my own career flip, just as I encourage my guests to do. So here we are, in May 2025, and I can hardly believe it's been four months since I started my current day job. It feels surreal to say that, especially considering I was laid off for two years before this.During this time, I've been balancing my full-time job with furniture restoration on the side, dedicating Sundays to it, and squeezing in podcasting and all the related tasks whenever I can. If that sounds overwhelming, it is! Life can be a juggling act, and I know I'm not alone in feeling this way. Scheduling time with friends often feels like a game of Tetris, as we all navigate our busy lives.I've always been the type of person who thrives on variety. I'm the one multitasking—doing laundry while putting away dishes, preparing to record a podcast, creating social media content for my furniture flipping page, and making sure my dog, Dwight, gets outside for a potty break. My brain has always thrived on this mix of activities, and I've been like this for as long as I can remember.Looking back, I've come to realize something significant. For a long time, I believed that work—capital W work—was my identity. I thought it was the only thing I was good at. I didn't believe in taking vacations; if I did, I'd bring my laptop along and continue working. I even had a panic attack in front of a customer service team I was managing because I was so consumed by my job. I poured everything into my work, only to learn the hard way that companies would replace me in an instant. When I was laid off and struggled to find a new job for two years, I was left questioning my identity. Who was I if I wasn't working?I dive into this and more in the episode!

Day Two (May 23, 2025): Willie the Whit & Anticipating the "Memory Engines"UPCOMING LIVE WORKSHOP ON 5/25/25 WITH DR. ANTHONY METIVIER ON MEMORY ENGINES!!!Today, we're building on the foundation laid by previous Magnetic Memory workshops. Willie the Whit isn't just guessing what the "Memory Engines" are; he's using his already established understanding of Magnetic Imagery and Memory Palaces to anticipate how these new encoding "engines" will fit into and enhance his existing framework. The upcoming workshop isn't a completely new language, but a deeper dive into the grammar of effective memory input.Willie the Whit's Pre-Anticipated "Memory Engines" (Informed by Past MMM Workshops:Given Anthony's focus on "poor encoding" and "Magnetic Imagery," these "Engines" are likely mechanisms for making those images more effective at the crucial point of input. Willie knows:HE IS A FICTIONAL DETECTIVE IN MY DEVELOPING BOOK THE GREATER PORTLAND CRAB CAPER!*******He's a student of The MMM Courses in MY BOOK!!Willie's Mnemonic Acrostic Phrase:Witty Images Touch Numerous Essences: Sensory, Motion, Emotional, Absurdity, Conceptual, Location, Generation, Vividness!Sensory Multiplier,Motion (Kinesthetic) Engine,Emotional Amplifier,Absurdity (Exaggeration) Creator,Conceptual Hook,Location Linker,Generation Gear (Rapid Generation),Vividness Validation,Revised Mnemonic for the 8 Anticipated "Memory Engines":Willie knows the E.N.C.O.D.I.N.G. is key! Exaggeration,Newness (Absurdity/Uniqueness),Conceptual Clarity,Outlandish (Exaggeration),Dynamic (Kinesthetic),Immersion (Sensory),Nexus (Association/Location),Generate (Rapid Generation),This mnemonic uses "ENCODING" itself, perfectly tying into Anthony's core message.???Person: Edgar Nimbus (EN) - A brilliant, eccentric inventor, perhaps with a cloud of ideas floating around his head.Action: Creating Operations - Designing complex processes and systems.Object: Digital Input Network Grid - A futuristic, glowing grid where information seamlessly flows and takes form.The P.A.O.

Dr. Anthony Metivier Workshop-This is a fantastic opportunity, and it sounds like you're deeply committed to mastering memory techniques! Let's break down Anthony Metivier's "The Memory Engine Live" workshop overview based on your provided text, framing it from your perspective as a long-time student and podcaster.Dissecting "The Memory Engine Live" with Grandpa Bill: An Overview for the "BH Sales Kennel Kelp Holistic Healing Hour"Anthony Metivier, the brilliant mind behind The Magnetic Memory Method, is back, and I'm thrilled to be joining him for my third deep dive into his techniques with "The Memory Engine Live." This isn't just another workshop; it's a direct challenge to a pervasive problem, and it promises to be a game-changer for anyone, especially my listeners on the "BH Sales Kennel Kelp Holistic Healing Hour Podcast" who are constantly seeking to enhance their mental clarity and focus.Anthony cuts straight to the chase: The real problem isn't forgetting; it's poor encoding. This resonates deeply with what I often discuss about health and wellness – you can pour all the good stuff into your body, but if your system isn't set up to absorb and utilize it, it's wasted. The same principle applies to our minds.This isn't a theoretical lecture or an information-consumption session. Anthony describes "The Memory Engine Live" as the point "where theory ends and skill begins." This is exactly what we need on the podcast – actionable, practical strategies that our "Silver Streakers" and "kids from 1-92" can implement immediately to improve their mental well-being.The workshop is designed for immediate application, packed into a focused two-hour session plus Q&A, catering to a global audience with convenient time slots.8 Live Implementation Exercises for "Magnetic Modes": 20 Bonus Drills for Continued Skill Sharpening: Real-Time Demonstrations and Personalized Q&A: Confidence in Real-Time Application: Breaking Through Mental Plateaus & Reducing Cognitive Load: New Speed Drills: Building Lasting Momentum: This workshop aims to provide a continuous upward trajectory, ensuring we "never feel stuck again." This is the ultimate goal of any effective learning system.Custom Mnemonic System for Life: This workshop directly addresses the "mental clarity and focus issues" that I, and many of my listeners, face. By fixing the "memory input problem" through "The Memory Engine," we're not just improving recall; we're optimizing the very process of how our brains handle information. This has profound implications for:Reduced Mental Fatigue: When encoding is efficient, the brain expends less energy struggling to retain information.Enhanced Learning and Knowledge Retention: For students, professionals, or anyone simply wanting to stay sharp, this is invaluable.Improved Decision-Making: Better recall of facts and details leads to more informed choices.Boosted Confidence: When you trust your memory, it positively impacts every aspect of your life.Overall Cognitive Wellness: Just as we nourish our bodies, we must train our minds. This is a core tenet of holistic health.#MagneticMemoryMethod,#MemoryEngine,#Anthony Metivier,#MemoryTechniques,#MemoryImprovement,#BrainHealth,#MentalClarity,#FocusAndConcentration,#CognitiveEnhancement,#HolisticHealing,#BHSalesKennelKelpHolisticHealingHour,#GrandpaBill,#SilverStreakers.#WorkoutsForGeriatrics,#LifelongLearning,#MemoryPalace,#MnemonicDevices,#EncodingSecrets,#BrainTraining,#MindfulnessForMemory,This workshop is perfectly aligned with the mission of the "BH Sales Kennel Kelp Holistic Healing Hour." I can't wait to bring these insights and practical applications back to my listeners!

Lecture one of a series on the 'Doctrine of Atonement', delivered by Dr. Mildred Bangs Wynkoop during the fall of 1979 at Nazarene Theological Seminary. Dr. Wynkoop was a remarkable voice in the Church of the Nazarene—a writer, pastor, missionary, and theologian whose influence still resonates today. Her most celebrated works are Foundations of Wesleyan-Arminian Theology and A Theology of Love: The Dynamic of Wesleyanism, both of which continue to shape contemporary Wesleyan thought. Her ministry journey spanned the globe and the academy. She pastored churches in California and Oregon, taught at George Fox Evangelical Seminary, and served as the founding president of Japan Nazarene Theological Seminary. She also taught in Taiwan before returning to the United States to serve as Professor of Theology at Trevecca Nazarene College (1966–1976) and later at Nazarene Theological Seminary (1976–1979). Throughout her century-long life and ministry, Dr. Wynkoop met Phineas Bresee, studied under H. Orton Wiley and Olive Winchester, and left a profound impact on generations of students and colleagues across four Nazarene institutions—having studied at Point Loma Nazarene University and Northwest Nazarene University, and having taught at Trevecca Nazarene University and Nazarene Theological Seminary. *These recordings, captured initially in 1979, have been substantially restored. While Dr. Wynkoop's voice has been clarified, student questions during Q&A segments may be difficult to discern. Her responses, however, remain clear and impactful.*   Lifelong Learning Code: 80890 Click here to learn about Lifelong Learning

GLAAD is the world’s largest lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer (LGBTQ) media advocacy organization. Last year, Darian Aaron, the director of Local News: U.S. South, founded GLAAD Down South to expand GLAAD’s work, specifically making sure accurate and inclusive narratives about LGBTQ Southerners and people living with HIV are told in the media. Arron joins “Closer Look,” to talk more about the upcoming 1st annual GLAAD Down South media event. On April 14, a suspect allegedly ran a red light in the Little Five Points area while being pursued by Georgia State Patrol – that’s when 19-year-old Cooper Schoenke was reportedly struck and killed by Faduma Mohamed. The tragedy has moved a coalition of elected officials, physicians, and civil rights advocates to call for change from state authorities. State Representative for District 58 Park Cannon and Devin Barrington-Ward, the director of communications for the National Police Accountability Project, discuss this renewed effort.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode, we present a special audio adaptation of a theological classic: “The Meaning of Christian Security”, written in 1939 by David Shelby Corlett. A respected theologian, editor, and educator in the Church of the Nazarene, Dr. Corlett was known for his clarity, depth, and passionate commitment to scriptural holiness and sanctification. This work is a rich and thoughtful exploration of what it truly means to be secure in Christ—not as a passive guarantee, but as a dynamic, ongoing relationship rooted in faith, obedience, and divine grace. Drawing deeply from Scripture and the Wesleyan-Arminian tradition, Corlett offers a vision of salvation that is both hopeful and profoundly responsible. The essay is organized into five chapters, each unpacking a vital dimension of Christian security: Security: A Divine Provision What Is Eternal Life? Security: A Vital Relationship Security Through Co-operation Its Scope Whether you're a pastor, a student of theology, or simply someone longing to walk more closely with Christ, this timeless message offers clarity, encouragement, and challenge.   This document was accessed from the Wesley Center Online.  The Wesley Center Online is a collection of historical and scholarly resources about the Wesleyan Tradition, theology, Christianity, and the Nazarene church hosted by the Wesley Center for Applied Theology at Northwest Nazarene University. We are thankful for the work of Richard Thompson in overseeing this repository.   To read the manuscript, click here To find more Holiness Classics, click here   Lifelong Learning Code: 80890 Click here to learn about Lifelong Learning   *this episode was created with the help of AI*

When did you last learn to do something totally and utterly new? Tom Vanderbilt, author of Beginners: the Joy and Transformative Power of Lifelong Learning, was awestruck by his young daughter's insatiable need to know how to do almost everything. He was inspired by her to embark on a year of learning purely for its own sake. Tom had a truly unique year - a circuitous journey of learning, in which he attempted to learn chess, singing, surfing, drawing and juggling. These skills were chosen on the basis of difficulty and lack of marketability.  Tom found that his new sense of curiosity opened him up to a profound happiness and a deeper connection to the people around him. By reinventing himself in small ways, life began to seem more magical. In this classic episode Andrew and Tom talk about just why it is that so many of us stop learning new skills as adults.

"The opening day of the Tenth General Assembly of the Church of the Nazarene, June 16, 1940, was a memorable one in the annals of the church. The blessing of God was unmistakably present from the opening song until the closing benediction. The morning communion service with Doctor Goodwin's message lifted us to heights of spiritual fellowship with God and with one another. Doctor Williams' characteristically stirring message in the afternoon was a challenge to better things for the days to come. The evening sermon was delivered by Dr. J. B. Chapman. His subject was "Christ and the Bible." It was an eloquent, scholarly and inspiring message that seemed to electrify the congregation of almost 6,000 listeners that crowded the great auditorium. Requests and pleas for the publication of the sermon were made both to the speaker and to the Publishing House executives. Therefore the message is now available, for the benefit of many who heard it and wish to read it as well as hear it, also for the many thousands who were not privileged to attend the service but who through reading this address will be led to a deeper love for the Bible and the Christ of the Bible." P. H. LUNN   This sermon was accessed from the Wesley Center Online.  The Wesley Center Online is a collection of historical and scholarly resources about the Wesleyan Tradition, theology, Christianity, and the Nazarene church hosted by the Wesley Center for Applied Theology at Northwest Nazarene University.

What does it take to truly transform conversations and empower clients as a coach? In this episode we unpack the essential coaching skills that every great coach should cultivate. These aren't the conventional techniques you'll find in a competency framework; they're the often-overlooked yet powerful capabilities that create truly impactful and transformative coaching experiences. Join us as we share insights and personal reflections from our own coaching journeys, exploring both the obvious and under-the-radar skills that can elevate your coaching practice. As we kick off the conversation, we reflect on what makes the art of coaching so unique. One of the first skills we explore is attunement and loving presence—the ability to tune into a client's energy, emotions, and worldview. This skill allows coaches to create a safe, intimate space where clients can open up, share their vulnerabilities, and feel fully seen. We recount how, over time, we've learned to attune to the “energy field” of our clients, connecting with their inner worlds in deeply meaningful ways. Next, we delve into pattern spotting, a skill that extends beyond just noticing what clients say in the moment. It's about drawing connections across multiple conversations and identifying themes that clients themselves may not yet recognise. We share how this skill enhances self-awareness and helps clients unlock breakthroughs. Time management comes into focus as we discuss its role in maintaining session boundaries and ensuring clients derive maximum value. It's a practical yet essential skill—one that's vital for closing sessions effectively while allowing both coach and client to leave the coaching “bubble” ready to engage with the wider world. From there, we explore cultural awareness and the importance of understanding the systemic challenges and diverse lived experiences our clients may face. We reflect on our own growth and commitment to educating ourselves, creating inclusive spaces, and embracing the complexities of coaching within a multicultural landscape. We also dive into creativity and agility, sharing how “dancing in the moment” helps us respond to clients' needs without rigidly adhering to structures or models. This is complemented by our exploration of keeping ego in check, reminding ourselves as coaches to stay client-centred and avoid the temptation to impose our own agendas. Towards the end of the episode, we discuss two transformative skills: lifelong learning and courage. We share how embracing a learner's mindset keeps us open to growth, while courage allows us to navigate the often vulnerable space of coaching conversations with authenticity and boldness. Throughout the episode, we reflect on our personal experiences and offer practical insights that you can apply to your own coaching practice. Whether you're just starting out or looking to deepen your skills, we hope this episode provides inspiration and guidance on your journey as a coach.   10 Essential Coaching Skills: Attunement & Loving Presence Pattern Spotting Time Management Boundary Setting Cultural Awareness Creativity & Agility Keeping Ego in Check Business Acumen Lifelong Learning Courage   Timestamps 00:00: Introduction 02:15: Skill 1 - Attunement 09:45: Skill 2 - Pattern Spotting 15:30: Skill 3 - Time Management 22:00: Skill 4 - Boundary Setting 27:40: Skill 5 - Cultural Awareness 33:10: Skill 6 - Creativity 38:25: Skill 7 - Keeping Ego in Check 45:00: Skill 8 - Business Acumen 50:20: Skill 9 - Lifelong Learning 56:40: Skill 10 - Courage   Keywords: Essential coaching skills, Coaching attunement, Pattern spotting in coaching, Coaching time management, Setting boundaries as a coach, Cultural awareness in coaching, Coaching creativity and agility, Keeping ego in check coaching, Business skills for coaches, Lifelong learning for coaches, Coaching courage, Breakthrough coaching conversations, Coaching competency frameworks, Coaching CPD programs, Becoming a great coach, Links: Take the Coaching Course Quiz: www.mycoachingcourse.com COACHING TRAINING LEVEL 5 https://www.igcompany.co.uk/l5-diploma COACHING TRAINING LEVEL 7 https://www.igcompany.co.uk/l7-diploma Purchase our bestselling book ”Deciding to Coach”: https://amzn.to/3UvUe9r Join The Coaching Crowd Community on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/groups/TheCoachingCrowd/ In Good Company (UK) https://www.igcompany.co.uk/ Check out our YouTube Channel https://bit.ly/378rY9a

In the world of preparedness, the ability to adapt and grow is just as important as stockpiling supplies. Knowledge is one of the few preps that can never be taken from you. The more you know, the better you can handle any situation—from making your own gear to understanding alternative medicine or even thriving in a grid-down world. Learning isn't just about survival; it's about becoming a more capable, resilient person in every aspect of life. But in a world of infinite information, how do you separate the useful from the noise? That's where smart learning techniques come in. Inspired by Tim Ferriss and other efficiency experts, I've developed a system that helps me absorb information quickly, filter out nonsense, and actually retain what I learn.

Part Two.If change were a sport, Colin Savage would have a trophy room. He's worked in 70+ countries, lived in 7, and reinvented himself more times than most of us change our passwords.In this episode, Colin calls out lifelong learning as passé and introduces his take: skill stacking. Plus, we get into why having a personal AI strategy might be just as important as having a LinkedIn profile. Buckle up—Colin's not slowing down, and neither should you.Key Highlights of Our Interview:The Kung Fu Panda Approach to Change“Wise, measured, and reflective—the best change leaders channel their inner ‘Kung Fu Panda turtle.' Fewer words, deeper thought, and a collective approach to charting the path forward. Because real insight comes when you listen more than you speak.”Why Collective Decisions Matter“Making life-altering changes isn't a solo act. Consulting with those affected—be it family, colleagues, or friends—adds invaluable perspectives. Ignoring this step risks blind spots and unanticipated challenges that could have been addressed earlier.”Lifelong Learning: The Good, the Bad, and the Outdated“While lifelong learning emphasizes constant self-improvement, it often lacks focus. Simply chasing degrees, certifications, or skills without purpose can lead to a disjointed portfolio of knowledge. The real magic happens when learning is intentional and builds toward expertise.”Skill Stacking as a Career Superpower“Focused learning that combines seemingly unrelated skills can redefine your career trajectory. It's not just about learning for the sake of it—it's about intentionally connecting knowledge areas to create a broader, more adaptable toolkit for the future.”_________________________Connect with us:Host: Vince Chan | Guest: Colin Savage  --Chief Change Officer--Change Ambitiously.
