Podcasts about limits

Today's poem is My Body Knows its Limits by Page Hill Starzinger.The Slowdown is your daily poetry ritual. In this episode, Maggie writes… “I know we often think of our intelligence as being related to our brains. Smart people are called “brainy.” Wise approaches to problem-solving are called “mindful.” But the body has its own intelligence. Some things we know, because we intuit them—as we say, we feel them in our gut. I sense when I'm in danger, or when someone is lying to me. I might get a prickle on the back of my neck, or a speeding up of my pulse, or an uneasy feeling in my stomach. I sense when I can trust someone, too. My nervous system relaxes around them.”Celebrate the power of poems with a gift to The Slowdown today. Every donation makes a difference: https://tinyurl.com/rjm4synp

Send us a textRunning a pool service is more than cleaning and balancing water—it's running a business. In this episode, I'm diving into the importance of proper accounting. I'll share how separating business and personal finances saved me a major headache at tax time, why tracking every chemical, part, and mile driven matters, and how simple tools like QuickBooks or even a spreadsheet can keep your cash flow crystal clear. Accounting may not be glamorous, but it's the difference between just getting by and building a profitable pool business. Support the Pool Guy Podcast Show Sponsors!

If you're exhausted by the circus and just want straight talk, meet Joe D'Orsie—Pennsylvania State Rep for the 47th (Eastern York County). Joe's the guy who goes home to his family after session, hosts real “Java with Joe” town halls, and votes with facts over feelings. We get into what actually hits home: term limits, keeping girls' sports for girls, free speech on campus, and school choice that helps families—not systems.We walk through how politics should work—listen first, push good policy, skip the “keep my seat” game. Joe breaks down his Dads Defending Daughters Act (HB 1849), why anonymous campus “bias reports” need to go, and how he helped deliver a bipartisan win (HB 355) that toughened penalties for adults who prey on minors. We also hit AI and data centers at the local level, what it means to serve a district instead of a party, and why making law from raw emotion almost always backfires.If you want America-first results without the drama, this one's for you.Check out Joe's podcast Straight to the Point on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/straight-to-the-point-with-joe-dorsie/id1710599325Order our LOW ACID COFFEE “THE BROADCAST BREW” — thank you to Cool Beans Coffee Brewery for your partnership!https://www.coolbeanscoffeemi.com/product-page/broadcast-brew-low-acid-blendSubscribe for full conversations and weekly clips.Share this with someone who needs it today.Comment your biggest takeaway.About The Dillon England ShowOur mission is authentic conversation with interesting people across personal growth, entrepreneurship, and lifestyle improvement while keeping it entertaining and informative.Connect with DillonTwitter: https://twitter.com/imdillonenglandLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dillonmengland/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/dillon.england.5Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-dillon-england-show--6370921/support.

Every culture has its heroes, but for the ancient Greeks, the hero wasn't just a man who fought bravely or achieved great things. He was something far greater. He was a mortal who strained against the limits of what it meant to be human. The hero stood in that dangerous space between man and god, where strength, passion, and fate collided.In this episode, we're going to explore the figure of the Greek hero, not as myth or metaphor, but as a model for how to live and fight with purpose in a world that's forgotten both. Grab your spear and tighten your helmet cords because this one will challenge the way your see the world and your place in it!Resources:  The Greek Hero in 24 Hours, Gregory NagyThe Illiad, Homer (Stephen Mitchell translation)The Odyssy, Homer Support the showGet Members Only Content when you upgrade to a premium membership on our Substack page.

In this powerful episode of Pushing the Limits, Lisa Tamati sits down with visionary entrepreneur, Bitcoin OG, and author of The Price of Tomorrow — Jeff Booth. Jeff shares his profound insights on why our current financial system is breaking under the weight of exponential technological deflation and debt-driven inflation, and why Bitcoin offers not just an alternative — but a path toward hope, truth, and sovereignty. Together, they explore how exponential technology is rewriting the rules of economics, why central banks can't stop printing without collapse, and what a deflationary future built on sound money could mean for humanity's evolution. Booth's clarity on macroeconomics, human nature, and the moral imperative of Bitcoin offers a deeply philosophical — yet practical — roadmap for navigating the coming decade. If you've ever wondered how innovation, integrity, and decentralised systems intersect to redefine the future of money and freedom, this episode is essential listening. Jeff Booth Bio: Jeff Booth is a visionary leader, technology entrepreneur and best-selling author of The Price of Tomorrow – Why Deflation is Key to an Abundant Future.  With his expertise in technology, system thinking and design, he is at the forefront of a transition from an economic system built for the past, and one built for the future.

Read the full transcript here. What does it mean to treat facts as drafts rather than monuments? If truth is something we approach, how do we act while it's still provisional? When definitions shift, what really changes? How do better instruments quietly rewrite the world we think we know? Are we mostly refining truths or replacing them? When do scientific metaphors clarify and when do they mislead? What public stories make self-correction legible and trusted? What features make science self-correct rather than self-congratulatory? How should we reward replication, repair, and tool-building? Do we need more generalists - or better bridges between tribes? How does measurement expand the very questions we can ask? Is progress a goal-seeking march or a search for interesting stepping stones? Should we teach computing as a liberal art to widen its aims? Will AI turn software into a home-cooked meal for everyone? How do we design tools that increase wonder, not just efficiency? Samuel Arbesman is Scientist in Residence at Lux Capital.

On July 30, 1902, tens of thousands of mourners lined the streets of New York's Lower East Side to bid farewell to the city's chief rabbi, the eminent Talmudist Jacob Joseph. All went well until the procession crossed Sheriff Street, where the six-story R. Hoe and Company printing press factory towered over the intersection. Without warning, scraps of steel, iron bolts, and scalding water rained down and injured hundreds of mourners, courtesy of antisemitic factory workers. The police compounded the attack when they arrived on the scene; under orders from the inspector in charge, who made no effort to distinguish aggressors from victims, officers began beating up Jews, injuring dozens.To the Yiddish-language daily Forverts (Forward), the bloody attack on Jews was not unlike those that many Russian Jews remembered bitterly from the old country. But this was America, not Russia, and the Jewish community wasn't going to stand for such treatment. Fed up with being persecuted, New York's Jews, whose numbers and political influence had been growing, set a pattern for the future by deftly pursuing justice for the victims. They forced trials and disciplinary hearings, accelerated retirements and transfers within the corrupt police department, and engineered the resignation of the police commissioner. Scott D.

In recent months, Texas Governor Greg Abbott announced a ban on “Sharia law and Sharia compounds” in the state, citing longstanding principles that U.S. and Texas law take precedence over conflicting foreign law. This position is reflected in the 2017 American Laws for American Courts statute and in an Attorney General opinion affirming that contracts violating Texas public policy cannot be enforced.These commitments were tested in a North Texas family law case, where an Islamic prenuptial agreement called for disputes to be resolved under religious law. The Texas Supreme Court ultimately stayed the arbitration order and ordered review of the original arbitration agreement for "validity and enforceability."Other recent developments - including video accounts of a Houston imam calling for boycotts of certain businesses and reports of a proposed Muslim-exclusive residential community (“EPIC”) - have prompted legislative responses such as HB 4211, which requires property transfer disclosures and ensures disputes are adjudicated under Texas and U.S. law.How should courts weigh religious arbitration against constitutional and statutory protections? What legal tools exist to address disputes that implicate cultural or religious norms? How can Americans both respect religious diversity and uphold constitutional imperatives?Featuring:Qanta A. Ahmed, MD, Senior Fellow, Independent Women's Forumhttps://www.qantaahmed.com/bio/Professor Eugene Volokh, Thomas M. Siebel Senior Fellow, Hoover Institution, Stanford University(Moderator) Karen J.

In this episode James P. Dowling talks us through the unlikely friendship between physicist Wolfgang Pauli and psychologist Carl Jung. Their dialogue on quantum mechanics and archetypes pulled science and myth into the same room, forcing each to reckon with the other's language. Out of their exchanges came visions of atoms haunted by the unconscious, and shadows that reached into equations. We follow their conversation to ask what happens when reason and dream try to share the same desk.PATREON https://www.patreon.com/c/demystifysciPARADIGM DRIFThttps://demystifysci.com/paradigm-drift-showHOMEBREW MUSIC - Check out our new album!Hard Copies (Vinyl): FREE SHIPPING https://demystifysci-shop.fourthwall.com/products/vinyl-lp-secretary-of-nature-everything-is-so-good-hereStreaming:https://secretaryofnature.bandcamp.com/album/everything-is-so-good-hereJames' website: https://jungtoliveby.com/00:00 Go! 00:08:00 The Trickster Archetype and Personal Development00:12:00 Intuition and Rationality in Model Making00:16:00 Consequences of the Enlightenment and Modernity00:20:00 Historical Lessons from the French Revolution00:22:23 Discussion of Instinct vs. Rationality in Human Behavior00:24:12 The Role of Dopamine in Human Decision Making00:26:18 The Impact of Abandoning Symbolism in Modernity00:29:00 Motivation in Physics and the Pursuit of Glory00:33:26 The Dichotomy between Science and the Human Experience00:39:11 Integrating Jungian Concepts with Biology00:44:58 Discussing Jung's Word Association Test and Complexes00:50:12 Understanding Affect, Emotion, and Archetypes00:57:32 Jung's Methodology and Interpretation of Complexes01:05:12 Approaching Jungian Concepts in Personal Development01:07:33 The Quest for Identity and Self-Reflection01:09:37 Generational Differences in Self-Concept01:16:52 Life Stages and the Search for Meaning01:19:10 The Duality of Growth and Identity01:25:09 The Healing Power of Creativity01:28:31 Creative Participation as a Human Experience01:32:06 Internet's Dual Role in Creativity01:36:23 Understanding Creativity and Instinct01:39:51 Renaissance vs. Revolution in Institutions01:41:53 Engaging with the Unconscious Mind01:46:47 Shifting Perspectives on Artistic Process01:48:52 Discussion on Competing Teams in Science01:52:34 The Tradition and Lineage in Science01:56:12 Creativity and Glory in Scientific Pursuits02:04:36 The Nature of Truth and Scientific Frameworks02:09:43 Cultural Narratives in Science and AI Development02:10:29 Exploration of Myth and Reality02:12:06 Darwin's Legacy and Evolutionary Theory02:16:52 Archetypes and Scientific Paradigms02:19:14 The Role of Mathematics in Physics02:23:39 Understanding the Limits of Rational Inquiry02:27:24 Simulation Theory and Metaphysical Speculation02:32:05 The Interplay of Mathematics and Experience02:33:00 Exploration of Human Psyche and Evolutionary Perspectives02:36:12 Jung's Insights on Individual Calling and Collective Responsibility02:39:01 Invitation to Further Exploration and Collaborative Learning#jungianpsychology, #quantummechanics, #carljung, #archetypes, #depthpsychology, #unconsciousmind, #psychoanalysis, #philosophypodcast , #sciencepodcast, #longformpodcastMERCH: Rock some DemystifySci gear : https://demystifysci-shop.fourthwall.com/AMAZON: Do your shopping through this link: https://amzn.to/3YyoT98DONATE: https://bit.ly/3wkPqaDSUBSTACK: https://substack.com/@UCqV4_7i9h1_V7hY48eZZSLw@demystifysci RSS: https://anchor.fm/s/2be66934/podcast/rssMAILING LIST: https://bit.ly/3v3kz2S SOCIAL: - Discord: https://discord.gg/MJzKT8CQub- Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/DemystifySci- Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/DemystifySci/- Twitter: https://twitter.com/DemystifySciMUSIC: -Shilo Delay: https://g.co/kgs/oty671

Chuck Joiner, David Ginsburg, Marty Jencius, Brian Flanigan-Arthurs, Eric Bolden, Guy Serle, Web Bixby, Jeff Gamet, Jim Rea, and Mark Fuccio debate whether artificial performers threaten human creativity, explore ethical uses of AI to augment actors, and consider the limits of synthetic art versus human expression as technology blurs artistic boundaries.  This edition of MacVoices is brought to you by our Patreon supporters.

When Peter van Agtmael went to Iraq in 2006 to embed with the U.S. military, he was 24 years old and confident that his pictures could help end an unjust war. Two decades later, after documenting combat deaths overseas and then turning his camera lens on America, he's learned the limits of what photography can do. In this episode, Peter talks about the emotional toll of bearing witness to violence, the fraught ethics of choosing a subject, and how he ended up in a legal battle with Ye over an image. Peter's book is called “Look at the U.S.A.: A Diary of War and Home,“ and he has a show at the Corcoran School of the Arts and Design until January 25th.

Last month, the U.S. Census Bureau released the American Community Survey (ACS) data for 2024. In this episode of Tax Credit Tuesday, Michael Novogradac, CPA, and Novogradac partner Thomas Stagg, CPA, discuss the significance of the data. Stagg uses ACS data to create robust estimates as to what income and rent limits are likely to be in most areas when the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) announces them next April. The pair start off by reviewing the various data points that affect the estimates, and Stagg shares his view as to what the 2026 year-over-year increases in rent and income limits will likely be for various areas. Finally, Novogradac and Stagg talk about the upcoming data releases that will help refine his estimates.

What if everything you thought you knew about persuasion in business was wrong? In this episode of Predictable B2B Success, host Vinay Koshy welcomes Leslie Zane, author, pioneer of instinct marketing, and founder of the agency Triggers, to reveal the game-changing secrets behind how people really make decisions. Leslie has advised Fortune 100 giants like McDonald's, Aquafina, and Snickers, fueling over $50 billion in incremental growth for her clients. However, her approach isn't just about clever ads or emotional storytelling; instead, she taps into the power of the instinctive mind, the hidden “command center” that drives 95% of daily choices. Listen as Leslie debunks long-held marketing myths, explains why positive subconscious associations are the untapped fuel for growth, and shares her practical framework — the brand connectome — that companies can use to become the instinctive, go-to choice in their market. Whether you're in B2B or B2C, you'll discover why focusing on surface-level features or fleeting promotions could be holding your brand back, and how cognitive shortcuts and meaningful visual cues can unlock faster and more profitable growth. Tune in for actionable insights that will transform the way you think about persuasion, branding, and marketing strategy forever. Some areas we explore in this episode include: Of course! Here are the top 10 topics discussed in this episode: Instinctive vs. Conscious Decision Making: Most choices are made instinctively, not rationally, and marketers should focus on the unconscious mind.The Limits of Emotion in Marketing: Emotion is an outcome, not a true driver of purchase, and isn't as effective as commonly believed.Brand Connectome: The concept of mapping all positive and negative associations connected to a brand in the buyer's mind.Implicit Associations as Growth Drivers: Unconscious positive and negative associations heavily influence brand growth and purchase behavior.Turning Competitor Negatives into Your Advantage: New brands can target negative associations of dominant competitors to gain market share.Beyond Promotions and Discounts: Long-term growth comes from building instinctive brand preference, not short-lived promotional tactics.Building Distinctive Brand Assets: Focus on creating sticky visual and verbal cues (“growth triggers”) that reliably influence memory.Universal Triggers vs. Over-Segmentation: Universal, widely understood cues are more impactful than highly segmented, tailored messaging.Tracking Implicit Brand Health: Brands need to monitor implicit associations over time, not just conscious survey metrics.Updating Outdated Marketing Models: Traditional concepts, such as the sales funnel and uniqueness, should be replaced with an instinct-driven approach.And much, much more...

LESSON 280What Limits Can I Lay Upon God's Son.Whom God created limitless is free. I can invent imprisonment for him, but only in illusions, not in truth. No Thought of God has left its Father's Mind. No Thought of God is limited at all. No Thought of God but is forever pure. Can I lay limits on the Son of God, whose Father willed that he be limitless, and like Himself in freedom and in love?Today let me give honor to Your Son, for thus alone I find the way to You. Father, I lay no limits on the Son You love and You created limitless. The honor that I give to him is Yours, and what is Yours belongs to me as well.- Jesus Christ in ACIM

Giving is simple, too—visit TRMonline.org for a live needs list, explore the Amazon Wishlist (https://a.co/fIoVLhH) , or get involved by volunteering or scheduling a tour.This episode also marks a first for us—we open our very own listener mailbag. A thoughtful question came in asking how long to remain patient with a loved one struggling with addiction, and when, if ever, it's time to let go. The conversation that follows is raw and compassionate, exploring the tension between love and boundaries, patience and accountability. We talk about how grace doesn't mean enabling harm and why safety must always come first, even as we hold on to hope for change. There isn't a clear or easy answer to questions like this—only the continual call to trust where Jesus leads and to keep loving with both wisdom and grace. Grounded in real stories of recovery and resilience, this episode is both practical and deeply personal—a reminder that compassion and truth can coexist, even in the hardest moments.To learn more about TRM, Click Here!To support TRM, Click Here! To send in your own questions, click below.Send us a Message!

Drawing from his book Beyond Labels, Joel exposes how modern life has become trapped in labeling everything — our food, our health, even our families — and what we lose when we stop thinking for ourselves. From shocking truths about what's actually in packaged foods to the deeper spiritual healing that begins with forgiveness and contentment, this episode is both grounding and galvanizing. Parents and families will find rare encouragement here. Joel and Ginny explore how freedom, simplicity, and hands-on living create resilient kids and joyful homes — and why true health begins when we move beyond fear and start nurturing what we're for.

Take your calling seriously and yourself lightly   Summary Are you taking parenting a little too seriously? In this episode, we dive into why families need to throw off the burden of “psychological correctness” and rediscover the gift of humor. Parenting isn't a project—it's a wild, messy adventure! We'll share why secure parents can laugh at their mistakes, how to set healthy limits at your table, and how to teach kids the difference between fun teasing and disrespect. Most of all, we'll remind you that your children are a never-ending source of laugh-worthy moments.  This week we're joined by the always witty and wise Dr. Ray Guarendi, who brings his trademark humor and insight to help parents embrace joy, laughter, and freedom in family life. Key Takeaways Throw off “psychological correctness”! The gift of humor has been taken away from modern parents because most parents are now overly worried about every word they say.   Parents need to take themselves lightly and stop making parenting into a psychological project.  Those parents who are insecure can't laugh at themselves.  You know you are secure when you can laugh at your mistakes and find humor in the craziness of family life.  You decide the limits are your table and teach the difference between good-natured teasing and disrespect.  Remember and celebrate that kids are natural sources of laugh-worthy material for life!    Couple Discussion Questions Are we able to laugh at ourselves and our mistakes even with our kids?  What are some of the funny things that have happened in our family?  How can we remember these?    Resources Dr Ray website:  https://www.drray.com/   Take our 2025 Listener Survey!    Everything we do here at the Messy Family Project is for couples and families!

What are the dangers of apocalyptic thinking? And why do we always seem to be in the end times?
