Supercomputing has shifted from an esoteric and exotic part of technology to much more mainstream, mostly driven by AI. The massive amounts of computational power that once were reserved for the largest of computing problems in high performance computing (HPC), like weather and seismic analysis, are now commonplace in the world of AI. Analyst Gabriella Brown returns to talk about complex computing problems, quantum computing and photonics with host Eric Hanselman. SC25 has grown to over 16,000 attendees and almost 600 exhibitors, enough to sprawl across St. Louis' Americas Center and into its football stadium. As they mature, the next step in enterprise adoption is working out how all of these will work together. AI is tackling many problems, but quantum could address a whole different class of computing questions. Quantum computing is scaling up and moving closer to becoming a key part of an everyday computing portfolio. Techniques like quantum annealing are finding practical applications today while pure-play quantum approaches are increasing the density and stability of their computing capabilities as they push for quantum advantage, the point at which they're doing things that classical computers can't. New areas like photonic computing were also on display at SC25, as well as all of the supporting infrastructure to power, house and cool HPC installations. As AI clusters head toward gigawatt power dissipation, they require specialized support.   More S&P Global Content: Cybersecurity, talent needs and ongoing adoption were key themes at Quantum.Tech USA 2025 Access to quantum hardware remains cloudy, but more options are starting to appear Quantum computing and the future of data privacy   For S&P Global subscribers: 2026 Trends in Applied Infrastructure & DevOps Information security, cloud and AI vendors stand out as critical to businesses – Highlights from Vo… Quantum Computing Market Monitor & Forecast Quantum computing competitive landscape and market forecast: Expecting $6.5B by 2029 Mea culpa — NVIDIA GTC brings quantum to the stage to help set the record straight Credits Host/Author: Eric Hanselman  Guests: Gabriella (Ellie) Brown Producer/Editor: Feranmi Adeoshun Published With Assistance From: Sophie Carr, Kyra Smith

Avoidance is one of the most common reactions to emotional pain. It shows up as silence, staying busy, withdrawing, shutting down, or convincing yourself that “things will sort themselves out.” At first it feels protective. Over time, it becomes its own form of suffering and keeps couples stuck in the very patterns they're trying to escape.In this episode, Geoff and Jody explore how avoidance operates in both partners after betrayal and how safely facing difficult truths creates genuine movement in the relationship.What We Cover:For the Betrayed PartnerWhy avoidance often becomes a survival responseHow overwhelm, exhaustion, and cultural pressure to “keep the peace” silence your real needsThe difference between consciously pausing and unconsciously shutting downFor the Recovering PartnerHow shame and fear fuel hiding, minimizing, and delaying accountabilityWhy avoidance blocks repair and prolongs fearThe honest question every recovering partner must answerFor the CoupleHow both partners can slip into a shared pattern of avoidanceWhy comfort, silence, and homeostasis can feel safer than truthHow one partner naming avoidance begins to shift the entire dynamicRemember...avoidance feels safe in the moment, but it interrupts healing.______________________________Download the Free Resource: You, Me, Us - A Way Forward After BetrayalWhen betrayal has shaken your relationship, it can feel impossible to know where to begin.

"Mea culpa" de Pedro S

John 12:1-8,Six days before the Passover, Jesus therefore came to Bethany, where Lazarus was, whom Jesus had raised from the dead. 2 So they gave a dinner for him there. Martha served, and Lazarus was one of those reclining with him at table. 3 Mary therefore took a pound of expensive ointment made from pure nard, and anointed the feet of Jesus and wiped his feet with her hair. The house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume. 4 But Judas Iscariot, one of his disciples (he who was about to betray him), said, 5 “Why was this ointment not sold for three hundred denarii and given to the poor?” 6 He said this, not because he cared about the poor, but because he was a thief, and having charge of the moneybag he used to help himself to what was put into it. 7 Jesus said, “Leave her alone, so that she may keep it for the day of my burial. 8 For the poor you always have with you, but you do not always have me.”And the Lord, in verse 7, defends the way Mary of Bethany expresses her devotion to him.What Mary does in verse 3 is good and right, and I think we can learn from her. So that's the goal of this sermon. All last week, my prayer for today has been that through Mary's example in John 12, the Spirit would reawaken in us Mary-like devotion to Jesus. I want us to learn from Mary how to be more like Mary for the glory of Jesus. To that end, this morning I want to show you seven truths of Mary-like devotion.1. Mary-like devotion is surprising. Verse 1 opens with the setting: we are six days away from Passover, and Jesus has come back to Bethany. Now remember that Bethany is where he raised Lazarus from the dead in Chapter 11, verse 43, but then when the Jewish leaders plotted to kill Jesus, John tells us in verse 54 that Jesus “no longer walked openly” among them, because they were looking for him. The Pharisees wanted to arrest him. So Jesus left that area and went to Ephraim, which gave him more distance from Jerusalem. (Bethany was 2 miles outside Jerusalem, Ephraim was about 15 miles). So by the end of Chapter 11, Jesus is laying low.But Chapter 12 opens here and he's back in Bethany, where news travels quickly to Jerusalem, which means this is dangerous — why would he do it? Why would he come back to Bethany now? It's because Passover is six days away. Remember Jesus has a purpose to accomplish in Jerusalem, and now he's getting closer. But since Jesus is in Bethany they throw a special dinner for him. And because it's Bethany, we would expect our favorite Bethany family to be there. We saw these three siblings in Chapter 11 — Mary, Martha, and Lazarus. Now, John knows we'd expect their attendance, so he takes roll in verse 2. Look what he says:“So they gave a dinner for him there. Martha served [check her name off — she's there], and Lazarus was one of those reclining with him as table [check his name off — he's just happy to be in the room].And right away that's Martha and Lazarus. Which sibling is missing?Mary. Now look at verse 3 (verse 2 was just a build up to this):“Mary therefore took a pound of expensive ointment made from pure nard, and anointed the feet of Jesus and wiped his feet with her hair.”The first thing I want you to see is that this was not expected. This is a dinner! People are sharing a meal. Martha is staying busy like she does. Lazarus is at the table (you know he's getting seconds). And then Mary, finally, enters into this dining room with a bottle of ointment (or perfume) and she does this extravagant display of worship.Most of us had big dinners a few days ago. Imagine for a minute if something like this happened! It was not on the menu. It's never happened before. This was a surprise! That's the first thing to know about Mary-like devotion. This is not what most people would expect — because it responds in the moment to the glory of Jesus regardless of the context.2. Mary-like devotion is costly.We can see in verse 3 that this perfume was expensive. John tells us that plainly. But he also gives us two details that explain why. It has to do with quantity and quality.First, with quality, this perfume was made from “pure nard.” That's a plant that's grown in India. The root of this plant produced an oil that was collected to make this perfume.So it's a product derived from nature, created by a process, imported from far away — that sounds expensive. (This is why many scholars believe this Bethany family was well off — this perfume would have only been owned by the luxury class of the Mediterranean world.)Second, notice the quantity. John tells us it was a pound — and that's a Roman pound. The Greek word is litra — and it's equivalent to about 12 ounces. So imagine the American pop can. (I don't know the last time you turned a can of pop upside down to pour it out, but it takes a little longer to empty it than you might think.)Twelve ounces is not a little bit. And Mary doesn't have pop, it's perfume — 12 ounces of perfume — that's a lot of a really nice thing. And to give us more of an idea of how precious it is, John tells us the number value in verse 5. Judas says it's worth 300 denarii — which is about a year's wages.So to draw a parallel to our day, this is what we'd call an annual salary, and the average annual salary in the Twin Cities, Google says, is between $80,000–$90,000. So translate this in your imagination... Picture this: Someone at dinner this past week walks into the dining room and pours out $90,000 on somebody else's feet … Again, this is stunning. And the costliness amplifies the surprise! Those two things go together in Mary-like devotion. It's surprising because it's costly.3. Mary-like devotion is humble.Now, for our imagination's sake, it helps to know how people ate together at this culture and time. They didn't use raised tables and chairs like we do, but they used low tables, and sat on cushions on the floor. They “reclined” on the table, like verse 2 says, and their feet were stretched out behind them, away from the table. So Mary approached Jesus, verse 3, while he was sitting like that, and she anointed his feet.This is a key detail. Because with the extravagance of her gift, we might imagine Mary's actions to be surrounded by pomp. Like maybe Mary enters the room and first clears her throat, and makes sure somebody's getting the video, and then she does it. But it's just the opposite.Mary comes into the room, and stays at the feet's distance away from the table. She's not the center of attention. Nobody was probably even looking in her direction, and then she pours the perfume on Jesus's feet and wipes his feet with her hair. This is borderline undignified. She definitely looked a little silly. To everyone's surprise, with likely the costliest thing she's got, she humbles herself at the feet of Jesus in worship — but then the most vivid display of her humility is the use of her hair.In the ancient world, a woman's hair was her glory. It was her honor. This was Mary's strength, but here she turns her strength into a servant's towel … Her radiance into a rag. Her splendor into a sponge. Her crown becomes a cloth. … to wipe feet.Which means, Mary gives the best part of herself for the least part of Jesus. The highest aspect of her presentation (hair) is submitted to the lowest aspect of his (feet).This is profound humility.Mary is not even audacious enough to pray here: “Jesus, take my utmost for your highest.” She just says, “Jesus, take my utmost!” — And I don't care what anybody else thinks. I'm not concerned about appearance. It doesn't matter what people might say. This is all about Jesus. Mary shows us a marvelous self-forgetfulness. Mary-like devotion is humble.4. Mary-like devotion is fitting.This is #4 of 7, and it really is the central truth in Mary's example.So far we've seen that Mary-like devotion is surprising, costly, and humble, but here's where we need to be clear that the only reason any of this makes sense is because of Jesus. And Jesus doesn't just make Mary's actions make sense, he makes them right. Because of who he is, what Mary does is fitting. John calls her act an “anointing,” which is something done to set someone apart for a certain office. The examples we have in the Old Testament are individuals anointed as a priest or king, and we should think especially of kings in the Gospel of John. If you remember, way back in Chapter 1, when Nathaniel first met Jesus he confessed right away that Jesus is the Son of God and the King of Israel (1:49). Then in Chapter 6, verse 15, after Jesus fed the five thousand, the crowd wanted to take him by force and make him king.So we've seen a kingship theme already.But then right here in Chapter 12, the very next day after Mary anoints Jesus, Jesus rides into Jerusalem on a young donkey, and the crowd paves the way for him with palm branches, and they say — in verse 13 — “Hosanna! Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord, even the King of Israel!”So we have every reason to see that Mary's anointing of Jesus is anointing him as King.Because that is who he is. It'll be explicit and public tomorrow in this story, in Jesus's ‘triumphal entry,' but tonight, at this dinner, with Mary, it's implicit and private. In the moment, even Mary doesn't know the full extent of what she's doing, but we as readers can see it. In Chapter 11, we saw her fall at Jesus's feet in grief, here she bows at Jesus's feet in worship.Last chapter she came to Jesus needing his help; now she comes to him just giving him glory.This doesn't mean we ever stop coming to Jesus for help — we do! We always need his help! But sometimes we can also just come to him in simple worship.This is when we come to him, not to ask him for things, but to give him whatever we can because he is worthy — just because he's our king and he's a good king! It is fitting to worship him!Think about this: When was the last time your heart moved toward Jesus, not for what he gives, but for who he is? When was the last time you were simply compelled by the worth of Jesus?The Little Drummer BoyMary's devotion here in Chapter 12 actually reminds me of what used to be one of my least favorite Christmas songs. “Santa Baby” is dead bottom, but not far from there used to be “The Little Drummer Boy.” And the reason I didn't like the song is because for years it didn't make sense to me, and it was kinda irritating. The pa-RUM-pa-pum-pums are distracting. But if we can get rid of that part and focus on the real words in the song, it's actually beautiful. It's a song about a boy who is invited to meet the newborn Jesus (and it's fictional; didn't really happen; we're supposed to use our imaginations). The boy starts the song by saying:Come, they told meA newborn king to see, Our finest gifts to bring,To lay before the king,So to honor himWhen we come You get it? The boy is invited to come meet Jesus, so he does. And in the second stanza he's at the manger, and he speaks to the infant Jesus:Little baby,I am a poor boy tooI have no gifts to bringThat's fit to give a KingShall I play for you on my drum?See, I imagine that's what Mary of Bethany thought. While Martha was busy serving and Lazarus was sitting at the table, Mary thought: The king is here. He's in the room. What do I have that's fit to give a King?And the technical answer is nothing. Nothing we have is enough to match the glory of this King, but Mary thinks I've got that bottle of perfume — just like the boy thought, I've got this drum. And the boy says, “Shall I play the drum?” Mary thinks, “Shall I pour the perfume?” So the boy plays his best, and Mary pours it all. I don't have enough to give you, but I'll give you my best because you're worthy.That's what the song is about. That's what Mary does here. And it's fitting because of the King!And John tells us that the fragrance of her worship fills the entire house. Which means: her personal reverence and self-forgetfulness in recognizing the glory of Jesus becomes uncontainable. Everybody around her can literally sense her devotion for Jesus.5. Mary-like devotion is criticized. This is verses 4–5: But Judas Iscariot, one of his disciples (he who was about to betray him), said, “Why was this ointment not sold for three hundred denarii and given to the poor?”Apparently, Judas caught the aroma, but instead of recognizing Mary's act as a surprising, costly, humble, and fitting act of devotion, he criticized her. He immediately liquidated the value of the ointment in his head, and he corrected her decision. That could have been used for something better! That could have been a lot of money to help poor people! Mary is being unwise!Now, before we look closer into the criticism, I just want to note that it happened, and right away, because that's just how things go — even things as wholesome as Mary's devotion.The Bible gives us no impression that devotion to Jesus will be easy — it actually ensures the opposite. There's a Forest Frank lyric my younger boys love. It goes: Jesus promised that the bad would come along, ‘Cause if life is always easyProbably doin' something wrong.That's true. I want everybody to know: when your devotion to Jesus meets difficulty, that's a good sign. The question for us is about our willingness to endure difficulty. Are we willing to be criticized? Are we willing to express devotion to Jesus that others would call wasteful but Jesus calls beautiful?6. Mary-like devotion is vindicated.Let's look closer at what Judas said in verse 5.At face-value, we might think Judas is onto something, because what he says is not untrue. That perfume was worth a lot of money — three hundred denarii/$80–90K — that's a lot of money you can do a lot with. Judas names one possibility. The problem, though, is that he's thinking about it all the wrong way. See, he's thinking about gifts from the giver's perspective, not from God's perspective. He's thinking about everything from earth looking around, not from heaven looking down.In his mindset — the ‘Judas mindset' — all value is monetary, and all that is monetary is a zero-sum category: which means I'm always thinking, “whatever I give here is what I cannot give there.” And see, Judas is so caught up in this mindset — he cares so much about the optimal management of the gift — that he's blind to the One the gift is for. That is what is most striking about verse 5 — it's the absence of anything to do with Jesus. Judas says nothing about him. So Judas not only rebukes Mary here, but he also registers how little he thinks of Who she worships.And if that wasn't clear, John adds in verse 6. He wants us to know that Judas said what he said:“…not because he cared about the poor, but because he was a thief, and having charge of the moneybag he used to help himself to what was put into it.”Judas was part of a program called ‘Feeding Our Future' …Greed is an ancient sin — it's the root of all evil, and it ruined Judas. (And it's behind the ruin of our state. God help us.)In verse 7, Mary doesn't say anything back to Judas, but Jesus speaks up on her behalf, and he says, first, “Leave her alone.”Which is amazing. Jesus doesn't argue with Judas. He doesn't explain why his mindset is wrong, he first just tells him to stop. Jesus defends Mary, and he makes the issue about himself, because it is!With this perfume Mary has prepared Jesus for the day of his burial, because, verse 8:“…the poor you always have with you, but you do not always have me.”And it's clear now, with the mention of his burial and that he won't always be here, Jesus is talking about his death. Which raises the question for us: Was Mary anointing Jesus as king or preparing him for his death? And the answer is Yes.Again, Mary is doing more here than she realized. She is anointing Jesus as King — it's just that he's a king who will sacrifice his life for his people.He's a King who has come to die. His reign will conquer the grave for good — remember Lazarus — but first Jesus's reign will come through the grave. Our triumphant King will also be a slain Lamb. And John wants us so badly to get this! He gives us hints here in Mary's devotion, but then later in the Book of Revelation he tells us about a vision when saints and angels together pour out their praise to Jesus, and they say, “Worthy is the Lamb who was slain to receive power and wealth and wisdom and might and honor and glory and blessing!” (Revelation 5:12)Listen: I want you to know that the final vindication of our every sincere act of devotion to Jesus will come on that day when we see him. If it's Mary-like devotion, it is never wasted. Jesus is worth it. And this brings us to the last point.7. Mary-like devotion is instructive. We're gonna finish how we started: I think we can learn from our sister Mary. It is a gift to us to be able to see her gift to Jesus, and I want us to be more like her. That's been my prayer: that the Spirit would reawaken or awaken in us Mary-like devotion to Jesus.Devotion that is surprising because it responds to Jesus in the moment, even if it doesn't fit the setting. Costly because it brings Jesus our best, humble because it doesn't worry about what others might think, fitting because Jesus is the King and nothing given to him is too much, criticized because it's not supposed to be easy, and vindicated because the King who Mary worshiped is the Lamb who was slain and one day we will see his worth with our own eyes.Mary's devotion is instructive because it shows us what it looks like when a heart is overcome by the worth of Jesus.And what's incredible for us, is that we know more about Jesus's worth than Mary does here. We already know the end of the story! That Jesus who has come will die, will be resurrected, and will come again.So in closing, I want to invite you to ask yourself this: For Advent, in this season of waiting, what is Jesus calling you to do that would simply reflect his worth?That's what brings us to the Table.The TableWe come here to this Table to rest in the worth of Jesus Christ. Let his glory be your comfort by taking refuge in him. That's what it means to trust in Jesus, and that is who this table is for. If you're here and you have put your faith in Jesus, we invite you to eat and drink with us and give him thanks.

In dieser Vorlesung steht das komplexe Verhältnis zwischen Framesemantik und Konstruktionsgrammatik im Mittelpunkt. Die Sitzung bietet einen Einblick in aktuelle Forschungsdebatten und zeigt auf, wie unterschiedlich Sprachwissen modelliert werden kann: Exemplarisch ist dafür das Verhältnis zwischen deduktiven und induktiven (gebrauchsbasierten) Beschreibungsmodellen. Es soll daran deutlich werden, dass wissenschaftliche Modellierung oft ein offener Prozess ist. Insofern ist diese Vorlesung ein "Werkstattbericht" für alle, die einen Blick in die linguistische Theoriebildung werfen möchten. 00:49:43 Mea culpa: In den letzten Slides habe ich live korrigiert, da diese tatsächlich Work in Progress sind und noch fehlerhaft waren.

Would we be asking the questions of Police Commissioner Richard Chambers if we hadn't been dealing with McSkimming and Coster and Co.? From my dealings with Chambers, he is exactly the sort of person who the Police need leading them. He is one of those appointments that when it's made, you get it, unlike the Coster appointment. When it was made you saw Ardern's fingerprints all over it and history shows how that all worked out. From all Chambers' actions so far, he not only had to right the direction of the Police broadly, but tidy up a god-awful mess that, if you believe headlines, has shaken the public's faith in the entire force. I don't actually believe that for a moment. Police, at 15,000 strong, are not rotten, the same way the bad apple in a corporate doesn't mean the whole business stinks. But as a result of the mess, Chambers felt it necessary to share the speeding ticket news. He was going 112km/h, which as far as I know was actually 111km/h. Not that that excuses it, it just keeps getting misreported. Then he's down Oriental Parade with Kash Patel having a dip while there is a tsunami warning. He thought it was lifted, but it wasn't. He rang the appropriate people and said sorry and then he was in front of the Parliamentary Select Committee having his minister, Mark Mitchell, heap praise on him, as well he might. The point being, are we microanalysing people in public life? And if we are, is it useful? And if it isn't, which I doubt it is, do we put people off going for top jobs in the public service? Can you be a decent operator and completely incident free? Are any of us completely incident free? Is 111km/h even a thing? Mea culpa – I go 111km/h every weekend in the country, probably more. A lot of people do. Do I take tsunami warnings seriously? Not really. Do I take atmospheric rivers seriously? Not really. New Zealand overreacts to most things, driven by the digital media who live for clicks. So there you go. I doubt I'll make Police Commissioner. What I also know is I can't be bothered with the myopic gawking over matters of little or no importance. Chambers is clearly a more patient man than I am. But as I say, he seems the real deal and the man for the job. How about we let him get on with it and give the nonsense a rest? See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

From visionary masterplans to evolving guest expectations, this conversation dives into what's driving the next chapter of growth in MEA's hospitality sector.

One of the most common fears couples face after betrayal is the feeling of being out of sync. One partner seems to be moving faster. The other feels stuck or confused. One wants to talk. The other wants space. And both start wondering, Why aren't we healing the same? What does this say about our relationship?In this episode of From Crisis to Connection, Geoff and Jody unpack why couples never heal at the same pace and why that's not necessarily a sign of failure. It's a sign that each person is doing different work with different starting points, needs, wounds, and responsibilities.______________________________Download the Free Resource: You, Me, Us - A Way Forward After BetrayalWhen betrayal has shaken your relationship, it can feel impossible to know where to begin.

We grow up believing that if someone truly loves us, they'll just know what we need. That love will automatically teach them how to comfort, protect, and show up in the right ways. But when betrayal or disconnection happens, that belief gets tested—and often shattered.In this episode of From Crisis to Connection, Geoff and Jody talk about why love alone isn't enough to heal after betrayal. They explore how this belief shows up differently for the betrayed partner, the recovering partner, and the couple as a whole—and what it really takes to rebuild connection when love is present, but understanding is missing.Why betrayed partners often equate missed needs with being unlovableHow the belief “If you really loved me, you'd just know” traps both partners in painWhy recovering partners feel crushing pressure to get everything rightThe difference between love as a feeling and love as a daily practiceHow skill-building, vulnerability, and accountability transform love into safety______________________________Download the Free Resource: You, Me, Us - A Way Forward After BetrayalWhen betrayal has shaken your relationship, it can feel impossible to know where to begin.

PĂRTĂȘIE, DEPENDENȚĂ, SUPUNERE (3) „...Pentru că nu caut să fac voia Mea, ci voia Tatălui, care M-a trimis.” (Ioan 5:30)

Care este miza lui Grindeanu prin atacurile la adresa lui Bolojan și de ce nu îl apără liberalii pe premier – INTERVIU (HotNews) - Grindeanu are un plan - să-l distrugă pe Bolojan (SpotMedia) - Ministra de Externe, Oana Țoiu: O să vedem o prezență întărită a NATO în România până la sfârșitul acestui an și anul viitor (Europa Liberă) Exces de zel. Un jandarm l-a amendat pe organizatorul marșului de comemorare a victimelor Colectiv. „Durerea are oră de închidere?” (Adevărul) Marian Rădună, reprezentant al Asociației MEA și unul dintre organizatorii marșului dedicat victimelor incendiului din clubul Colectiv, a fost amendat joi seară de Jandarmeria Română cu 3.000 de lei pentru „depășirea orei de comemorare”. „Legea 60, articolul 3, spune foarte clar că nici măcar nu se notifică comemorările, noi putem să stăm foarte bine toată noaptea pe acolo. Domnul agent constatator nu a ascultat nicio explicație”, a spus Rădună.  El consideră sancțiunea nelegală și a anunțat că o va contesta în instanță: „Vom contesta amenda. E frustrant, pentru că este o pierdere de timp. Din păcate, necunoașterea legii e încă la ordinea zilei.” Adevărul mai notează că jurnalistul Marco Badea a criticat decizia Jandarmeriei într-o postare pe Facebook, subliniind că amenda reflectă „o lipsă profundă de empatie și discernământ instituțional” . „Cineva a decis că memoria are program fix și că durerea are oră de închidere. Este un moment care adună în același loc tot ce merge strâmb în felul în care statul își tratează cetățenii: cu suspiciune, aroganță și cruzime birocratică deghizată în regulament”, a mai transmis jurnalistul. Marșul de joi a marcat un deceniu de la tragedia care a schimbat România, iar organizatorii au atras atenția că, după zece ani, „nimeni nu a plătit” pentru cele 65 de victime, iar corupția și infecțiile nosocomiale continuă să facă victime. Care este miza lui Grindeanu prin atacurile la adresa lui Bolojan și de ce nu îl apără liberalii pe premier – INTERVIU (HotNews) Strategia PSD este de a face opoziție din interiorul Guvernului, iar miza lui Sorin Grindeanu este șubrezirea reputației lui Ilie Bolojan, spune analistul politic Adi Zăbavă, într-un dialog cu HotNews. Concluzia expertului vine după ce PSD l-a chemat joi pe premierul Ilie Bolojan în Parlament, pentru explicații cu privire la reacția Executivului după ce SUA a decis să retragă aproape jumătate dintre soldații americani din România.  Despre tăcerea venită dinspre liderii PNL, care nu au nicio reacție în favoarea președintelui de partid Ilie Bolojan, Adi Zăbavă spune că pe de o parte, Bolojan face compromisuri pentru a menține stabilitatea în coaliție, iar pe altă parte, amintește că în PNL există și tabăra, destul de numeroasă, care așteaptă să preia conducerea partidului și deci, căderea lui Bolojan.  În toată ecuația coaliției, președintele și-a asumat rolul de mediator – a chemat liderii la discuții la Palatul Cotroceni atunci când nu reușeau să iasă din blocaje – fie că era vorba despre reforma administrației publice sau despre reforma pensiilor speciale. Analistul spune că pentru Nicușor Dan primează stabilitatea guvernării, dar că intențiile lui politice nu sunt încă clare.  Grindeanu are un plan - să-l distrugă pe Bolojan (SpotMedia) Strategia social-democraților nu este să plece de la guvernare și să facă o nouă majoritate cu AUR. Ar fi o operațiune politică riscantă din cauza luptelor interne din formațiunea extremistă și a reacției de respingere a opiniei publice. Strategia e crearea unui nou USL, care să-l lase în ofsaid pe actualul prim-ministru, iar de sub drapelul pro-europenismului să fie oprite reformele, corupția să meargă înainte, iar privilegiile conservate, consideră jurnalistul Emilian Isăilă. Integral, pe pagina SpotMedia. Ministra de Externe, Oana Țoiu: O să vedem o prezență întărită a NATO în România până la sfârșitul acestui an și anul viitor (Europa Liberă) Ministra de Externe a României, Oana Țoiu, anunță la Interviurile one2one că aliați din NATO, alții decât Statele Unite, vor trimite în lunile următoare noi trupe și echipamente în România.  Parteneriatul strategic dintre Statele Unite și România nu va fi afectat de decizia de retragere parțială a unor trupe americane și reconfirmă vizita președintelui Nicușor Dan la Casa Albă, anul viitor. Șefa diplomației române susține la one2one că relația dintre cele două țări este una de încredere care încă se dezvoltă. Oana Țoiu explică că România își dorește ca firme americane din domeniul apărării să investească pe teritoriul național prin programul SAFE al Uniunii Europene. România poate accesa peste 16 miliarde de euro prin acest program, care permite și participarea unor entități terțe.  

After betrayal, both partners are caught in a storm of overwhelming emotions and survival responses. The betrayed partner feels the instinct to pull away for safety. The recovering partner often feels paralyzed by shame and the fear of doing more damage. Both are protecting themselves—and both feel alone.In this episode, Geoff and Jody unpack why calming down together may feel impossible, but is actually key to long-term healing. They explore the natural push-pull dynamic created by betrayal trauma and offer a roadmap for how each partner can move toward stability, individually and together.In This Episode, You'll Learn:For the Betrayed Partner: Why distance is a survival response and why still longing for connection doesn't make you weak or “codependent.”For the Recovering Partner: How your presence is what creates safety, and why allowing your partner to move toward and away from you is one of the most powerful repair actions you can take.For the Couple: How to move out of a cycle of fear, shame, and reactivity and into a shared commitment to safety as the foundation of rebuilding trust.______________________________Download the Free Resource: You, Me, Us - A Way Forward After BetrayalWhen betrayal has shaken your relationship, it can feel impossible to know where to begin.

We often hear minimizing phrases like “It only happened once” or “Why make such a big deal out of it?” The intention may be to calm fears or move forward quickly—but instead, it often creates more confusion, pressure, and disconnection.In this episode of From Crisis to Connection, Geoff and Jody unpack why “just once” almost never feels small to either partner, and why minimizing actually blocks healing instead of speeding it up.Why “just once” lands as dismissal for the betrayed partner and activates the body's threat responseHow minimizing traps the recovering partner in shame and prevents genuine repairThe hidden pressure this phrase puts on the betrayed partner to get over it quickly and silence their own instinctsThe truth behind one-time breaches: even a single betrayal communicates capability, vulnerability, and riskHow couples get stuck in collusion, both wanting to move on but feeling unsafe or unheardWhat healthy repair looks like instead: honest conversation, space to ask questions, and freedom to explore impactEven if a behavior happened only once, its meaning is never small. One act communicates capacity, shifts safety, and opens the door to doubt. Real healing starts when both partners face the truth openly—not when they minimize it.______________________________Download the Free Resource: You, Me, Us - A Way Forward After BetrayalWhen betrayal has shaken your relationship, it can feel impossible to know where to begin.

President Donald Trump told reporters at the White House that Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi had assured him earlier Wednesday that India would halt imports of Russian oil. According to a Chinese analyst, Trump's remarks appear to be aimed at increasing pressure on Russia, particularly as his efforts to influence the Russia-Ukraine conflict have so far yielded little progress.美国总统唐纳德・特朗普在白宫向记者表示，印度总理纳伦德拉・莫迪已于早些时候向其承诺，印度将停止进口俄罗斯石油。中国一名分析人士指出，特朗普此番言论似乎意在加大对俄罗斯的施压，尤其是此前他在影响俄乌冲突走向方面的努力尚未取得明显进展。"He's assured me there will be no oil purchased from Russia - I don't know, maybe that's a breaking story, can I say that?" Trump said from the Oval Office, according to CNN. He continued, "there will be no oil, he's not buying his oil from Russia, it started - you know, you can't do it immediately, it's a little bit of a process, but the process is going to be over with soon."据美国有线电视新闻网（CNN）报道，特朗普在椭圆形办公室表示：“他（莫迪）向我保证，印度不会再从俄罗斯购买石油——我不知道，这或许算是一条突发新闻，我可以这么说吗？”他接着说道：“不会再有石油交易了，印度不会再从俄罗斯买石油。这一进程已经启动——要知道，没办法立刻停掉，这需要一个过程，但这个过程很快就会结束。”Trump has for months been calling on India to cease purchasing Russian oil, citing India's continued purchases of cheap Russian oil in escalating his trade war. In August, Trump announced a 25 percent tariff on India as a penalty for importing Russian oil and gas, building on a previously announced 25 percent tariff rate.数月来，特朗普一直呼吁印度停止购买俄罗斯石油，并以印度持续采购俄罗斯低价石油为由，升级与印度的贸易战。今年8月，特朗普宣布对印度加征25%关税，以此惩罚印度进口俄罗斯油气，而此前美国已对印度实施过25%的关税。In a follow-up exchange on Wednesday, Trump called Modi "a great man, and he loves Trump."在周三后续交流中，特朗普称莫迪是“一位伟人，而且他喜欢特朗普”。India is in discussions with the US about energy sourcing, said India's Ministry of External Affairs, adding that New Delhi's policies have always been guided by the interests of the Indian consumers. The MEA response came after Trump's claim, according to Business Today. 据《今日商业》报道，针对特朗普的说法，印度外交部回应称，印度正与美国就能源采购问题进行磋商，并强调印度政府的政策始终以印度消费者利益为导向。MEA spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said, "India is a significant importer of oil and gas. It has been our consistent priority to safeguard the interests of the Indian consumer in a volatile energy scenario. Our import policies are guided entirely by this objective."印度外交部发言人兰迪尔・贾斯瓦尔表示：“印度是油气进口大国。在能源市场波动的背景下，维护印度消费者利益一直是我们的首要任务。我们的进口政策完全围绕这一目标制定。”"Ensuring stable energy prices and secured supplies have been the twin goals of our energy policy. This includes broad-basing our energy sourcing and diversifying as appropriate to meet market conditions," he added.他补充道：“确保能源价格稳定与供应安全，是我们能源政策的两大核心目标。这包括拓宽能源采购渠道，并根据市场情况进行合理多元化布局，以满足实际需求。”Trump's claim that Modi had agreed to halt imports of Russian oil is likely a move aimed at pressuring Moscow, Qian Feng, director of the research department at the National Strategy Institute at Tsinghua University, told the Global Times. After all, Trump's involvement in the Russia-Ukraine conflict has so far failed to produce any tangible progress, Qian Feng, director of the research department at the National Strategy Institute at Tsinghua University, told the Global Times.清华大学国家战略研究院研究部主任钱峰在接受《环球时报》采访时表示，特朗普声称莫迪已同意停止进口俄罗斯石油，这很可能是为施压俄罗斯而采取的举措。毕竟，截至目前，特朗普在介入俄乌冲突方面尚未取得任何实质性进展。By releasing such information, Washington appears to be signaling to Moscow in hopes of nudging it toward a cease-fire on terms set by the US, Qian said, noting that however, given the close ties between Russia and India, the effectiveness of this strategy remains uncertain.钱峰指出，美国方面通过释放此类信息，似乎是在向俄罗斯释放信号，希望推动俄罗斯按照美国设定的条件停火。但他同时表示，鉴于俄印两国关系密切，这一策略的实际效果仍存在不确定性。The US has long sought to pressure India on this issue, yet considering India's long-term foreign policy priorities and national interests, it is unlikely to fully abandon energy cooperation with Russia in the near future, Qian emphasized. 钱峰强调，长期以来，美国一直试图在此问题上向印度施压，但考虑到印度的长期外交政策重点与国家利益，印度短期内不太可能完全放弃与俄罗斯的能源合作。haltv.停止；中止/hɔːlt/yieldv.产生；取得（结果、成果）/jiːld/volatileadj.易变的；波动的/ˈvɒlətaɪl/

Reinventing Midlife: Jeff Hamoui on Friendship, Purpose & the Modern Elder Academy Are you ready to reimagine your second half of life? In this inspiring conversation, I sit down with Jeff Hamoui, co-founder of the Modern Elder Academy (MEA), the world's first midlife wisdom school. Jeff shares his powerful story of leaving behind a high-pressure life in San Francisco to create a new chapter in Baja, where MEA now helps thousands of people navigate transitions, purpose, friendship, and aging with meaning. In this episode, you'll discover: Why midlife is the perfect time for reinvention (and how to start) The science of the “U-curve of happiness” and what it means for you How to metabolize your past experiences into true wisdom Why friendships are the #1 key to living longer, happier, and healthier The vision and impact of the Modern Elder Academy Whether you're craving more connection, clarity, or courage, this conversation will spark ideas for creating a vibrant, fulfilling second act. Jeff Hamoui is the creator of the Modern Elder Academy curriculum and one of MEA's most beloved facilitators. He is a teacher, writer, speaker and community builder who started his career as sustainability geek in the 1990s.  In 2017, Jeff traveled to Baja to start the next chapter of his career and soon found himself partnering with Chip Conley and Christine Sperber as a co-founder to develop something called MEA, the world's first midlife wisdom school. It was an idea that could make the world a little better: a place for people to take a pause to reframe their ideas about aging, reimagine what they might do with the rest of their adulthood, and reconnect to what matters most to them.   Find out more about MEA here: https://www.meawisdom.com/ If you need financial assistance, you can reach out to them and request support.

Most people assume infidelity only matters when it becomes physical, but emotional infidelity can cut just as deep—and often deeper. When your partner gives emotional intimacy, attention, and affection to someone else, it leaves you questioning your place in the relationship and doubting your own instincts.In this episode of From Crisis to Connection, Geoff and Jody unpack why emotional infidelity is so damaging, why it's often minimized, and what couples can do to protect their relationship from these subtle breaches of trust.They explore:Why betrayed partners often feel confused or pressured to minimize emotional cheatingHow “we're just friends” becomes one of the most common forms of denialThe danger of familiarity and unchecked closeness with someone outside the marriageWhy protecting exclusivity in emotional connection matters as much as sexual fidelityHow couples can set healthy boundaries that protect their emotional bondYou'll also hear Geoff and Jody share personal stories from their own marriage, illustrating how even innocent moments—like sharing music or interests too intimately with someone else—can cross emotional boundaries.This episode reframes emotional infidelity as a legitimate breach of trust that requires care, repair, and clarity. You'll learn how to recognize red flags, have honest conversations about boundaries, and protect what's sacred between you and your partner.______________________________Download the Free Resource: You, Me, Us - A Way Forward After Betrayal Get your copy here.______________________________Join the Courageous Together™ ProgramCourageous Together™ isn't just another course, it's a trauma-informed roadmap that holds both of you in the healing process.

Local and state food aid providers warn that there won't be enough money to pay for food assistance benefits if the federal government shutdown continues into next month.And today is one of the Minneapolis-St. Paul airport's busiest days of the fall... as the annual MEA break starts.Those stories and more in today's evening update from MPR News. Hosted by Emily Reese. Music by Gary Meister.

Trump claimed PM Modi 'assured' him India would stop buying Russian oil. MEA statement notes India's 'priority to safeguard interests of Indian consumer in a volatile energy scenario'.  

Adam Carter is in for Jason. He talks with friend-of-the-show Tracy Perlman about why local media obsesses over MEA weekend, why people enjoy being scared so much, and could 60 seconds rescue your relationship?

3pm Hour: Adam Carter is in for Jason. He talks about the use of a curfew to reduce violent crime in Mississippi and if that could be a useful tool in Minneapolis. Then Tracy Perlman joins the show for her weekly visit discussing MEA weekend and the "science" of being scared.

Municipal elections are around the corner and one seat that's contested is the mayor of St. Paul. We got the scoop on that race ahead of an MPR News and Pioneer Press debate Tuesday afternoon. We found out how the federal government shutdown might affect MEA week travel. We learned how state law enforcement is responding to problems with the use of breathalyzers. Some Twin Cities police departments are beginning to use AI to help write police reports. We talked with one officer about how it works. We met the winner of a recent startup competition. Her company is working on a medical device for babies in intensive care. With the season behind us, we talked about why the WNBA may be at a turning point.Our Minnesota Music Minute was “BRISKET WEEK” by Juice Lord and the Song of the Day was “idk i just work here” by Durry.

We've all heard the phrase “honesty is the best policy.” But after betrayal, many couples find that simply telling the truth doesn't always bring the healing they hoped for. In fact, sometimes the way truth is shared causes even more pain, confusion, and distance.In this episode of From Crisis to Connection, Geoff and Jody explore why truth on its own isn't enough to rebuild trust—and how it must be paired with safety, accountability, and compassion to actually repair a relationship.You'll hear:Why the way truth is shared can do more harm than goodHow betrayed partners experience “cold truth” that destabilizes rather than healsWhy recovering partners often confuse telling their story with telling the truthHow structure, timing, and accountability create safer truth-tellingWhy full healing requires equal ground, where both partners know the same truthGeoff and Jody unpack the tension between the betrayed partner's right to know and the recovering partner's responsibility to share honestly and safely. You'll learn why disclosure must be structured—not controlled—and how thoughtful truth-telling becomes the foundation for rebuilding trust.______________________________Download the Free Resource: You, Me, Us - A Way Forward After BetrayalWhen betrayal has shaken your relationship, it can feel impossible to know where to begin.

When it comes to racing, you either cash out or crash out. And today? Today we're all about the latter, both literally and figuratively. There's a crash for Marc Marquez, potentially locking him out of the next races. And while a broken collar bone hurts like hell, the knowledge that he's already got the championship in the pocket might give some comfort. But there's many kinds of crashing. Take Ducati for example: dominating the earlier half, but now hitting a performance wall. Meanwhile Aprilia and Honda are right behind. And then there's the Bagnaia situation - what's going on there? And finally, there's our connection! Yes, we suffered some technical difficulties at the end, losing Mat's words to the aether. Little bit of an odd end, but aren't all crashes? Mea culpa, and we'll have a proper ending for you next time! Want more? Visit our website or support us on Patreon.

If you're the betrayed partner, you know what it's like to be hit with waves of emotion that feel impossible to control. One moment you're holding it together, and the next you're flooded with anger, grief, or fear. You may even wonder if you're too much—or if you're going crazy for reacting so strongly.And if you're the recovering partner, you know how unsettling it is to face these storms. You want predictability, calm, and a path forward, but instead you feel powerless and defensive. Both of you are left asking: Why does this keep happening, and what are we supposed to do with it?In this episode of From Crisis to Connection, Geoff and Jody pull apart this cycle so you can finally understand what's really happening underneath these reactions. They explore:Why betrayed partners' strong emotions are survival responses, not “overreactions”How shame fuels defensiveness and blame for the recovering partnerWhy this dynamic often gets mislabeled as a “marriage problem” instead of a betrayal issueThe different responsibilities of each partner in recovery—and why they're not the sameHow couples can begin to work with these emotions instead of against themThe key message: You're not crazy—you've been through something crazy. These strong emotions are a normal, human response to relational trauma. And when both partners can understand and lean into this truth, healing and connection can begin.______________________________Download the Free Resource: You, Me, Us - A Way Forward After BetrayalWhen betrayal has shaken your relationship, it can feel impossible to know where to begin.

When trust has been broken, the recovering partner often feels pressure to prove they can be trusted again. They may follow instructions perfectly, track progress, and work hard to “get it right.” But instead of bringing closeness, all that proving can backfire—turning the betrayed partner into an audience who feels pressured to respond with gratitude or forgiveness before they're ready.In this episode of From Crisis to Connection, Geoff and Jody unpack why proving often stalls healing and what it means to shift from proving trust to providing safety. They share: • Why performance-based proving creates pressure and can feel transactional • How providing safety relieves pressure and supports the betrayed partner's nervous system • Why safety—not proof—creates the soil where real trust can grow • How couples benefit when the focus shifts from evidence to presence • Practical ways betrayed and recovering partners can move forward at their own paceThe conversation highlights a simple but powerful reframe: trust isn't what builds safety—safety is what builds trust.______________________________Download the Free Resource: You, Me, Us - A Way Forward After BetrayalWhen betrayal has shaken your relationship, it can feel impossible to know where to begin.

Do you ever feel like you're falling behind in healing? You look around and it seems like everyone else is moving forward while you're stuck, spinning, or even slipping backward. The truth is—you might be doing all the right things, but healing doesn't follow a straight line.In this episode of From Crisis to Connection, Geoff and Jody unpack the belief that you're “behind” in recovery. They explore how this shows up differently for betrayed partners, recovering partners, and couples—and reveal what's really happening beneath the surface.You'll hear: • Why betrayed partners often feel years behind from the moment of discovery • How comparison, past wounds, and betrayal blindness intensify the feeling of being stuck • Why recovering partners live with the fear of being in the “perpetual doghouse” • How couples together can carry a sense of “couple shame” that erases past progress • Why healing is not linear, but layered and indirect—and why that's actually hopefulIf you've ever wondered whether you're doing recovery “right,” this episode will help you see that showing up—even when it feels messy—is part of the healing process.______________________________Download the Free Resource: You, Me, Us - A Way Forward After BetrayalWhen betrayal has shaken your relationship, it can feel impossible to know where to begin.

After betrayal, couples often find themselves trapped in a cycle. The unfaithful partner wants to explain, while the betrayed partner longs for real accountability. Instead of bringing clarity, explanations often sound like excuses. The betrayed partner feels dismissed, the unfaithful partner feels shut down, and the cycle repeats.In this episode of From Crisis to Connection, Geoff and Jody explore why this dynamic is so common and what couples can do differently. You'll hear:  Why betrayed partners feel torn between their own pain and their natural empathy  How betrayal blindness can lead to minimizing wounds just to keep the peace  Why the recovering partner's instinct to explain often blocks healing  How the order of repair—accountability first, explanation later—creates safety and trust  Practical steps both partners can take to break the cycle and move forwardUsing stories, clinical insights, and personal examples, Geoff and Jody show why accountability must come before explanation and how this shift can transform the healing process.______________________________Download the Free Resource: You, Me, Us - A Way Forward After BetrayalWhen betrayal has shaken your relationship, it can feel impossible to know where to begin.

Welcome to the Part Time Pilot Audio Ground School Podcast! This podcast takes our free podcast to a whole new level by providing students with every single lesson included in the Part Time Pilot Private Pilot & IFR Ground Schools without a single Ad! On top of that, VIP podcast students get BONUS episodes like Mock Checkrides, Checkride Prep, Expert Interviews and more!   The #1 reason student pilots never end up becoming a private pilot is NOT due to money. The real reason is actually deeper than that. Yes, flight training is expensive. But every student pilot knows this and budgets for it when they decide to do it.   The actual #1 reason a student pilot fails is because they do not have a good, fundamental understanding of the private pilot knowledge they are meant to learn in ground school.   You see when a student does not have a good grasp of this knowledge they get to a point in their flight training where their mind just can't keep up. They start making mistakes and having to redo lessons. And THAT is when it starts getting too expensive.   This audio ground school is meant for the modern day student pilot... aka the part time student pilot. Let's face it, the majority of us have full time responsibilities on top of flight training. Whether it is a job, kids, family, school, etc. we all keep ourselves busy with the things that are important to us. And with today's economy we have to maintain that job just to pay for the training. The modern day student pilot is busy, on the go and always trying to find time throughout his or her day to stay up on their studies. The audio ground school allows them to consume high quality content while walking, running, working out, sitting in traffic, traveling, or even just a break from the boring FAR/AIM or ground school lecture.   Did I meant high quality content? The audio ground school is taken straight out of the 5-star rated Part Time Pilot Online Ground School that has had over 2000 students take and pass their Private Pilot & IFR exams with only 2 total students failing the written. That's a 99.9% success rate! And the 2 that failed? We refunded their cost of ground school and helped them pass on their second attempt. We do this by keeping ground school engaging, fun, light and consumable. We have written lessons, videos, audio lessons, live video lessons, community chats, quizzes, practice tests, flash cards, study guides, eBooks and much more.   Part Time Pilot was created to be a breath of fresh air for student pilots. To be that flight training provider that looks out for them and their needs. So that is just what we are doing with this podcast.     IFR Section 5 Lesson 6: In this FREE Online Ground School lesson for IFR we are going to talk about IFR Airway Altitudes. So far, we have just briefly mentioned the definitions of altitudes such as the MEA or the MOCA. Well, there are more altitudes we need to know and we need to dive deeper into what they are and how IFR pilots will use them in IFR Flight Plans.    Links mentioned in the episode:   IFR Airway Altitudes Video: https://youtu.be/UcmBlcYVloM    Private Pilot Online Ground School: PPL Ground School - Part Time Pilot Checkride Prep: PPL Checkride Prep - Part Time Pilot IFR Online Ground School: IFR Ground School – Part Time Pilot   PPL study group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/parttimepilot  IFR study group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/parttimepilotifr/   Recommended Products & Discounts:  https://parttimepilot.com/recommended-products-for-student-pilots/

Ezinne and Oji Udezue have over 50 years of combined product leadership experience at Microsoft, Twitter, Atlassian, WP Engine, Typeform, and Calendly. They've witnessed every major shift in product management, and, despite their seniority, they're taking beginner AI courses and learning from engineers half their age, and Oji is coding more now than in the past decade—from Waterfall to Agile to AI. They are also the authors of Building Rocketships, a guide to building great products. In this conversation, the couple shares hard-won lessons they've learned from companies successfully adapting to AI, including their “shipyard” framework and their “sharp problem” methodology.What you'll learn:1. The “shipyard” framework: why the best AI teams embrace controlled chaos2. Why Oji writes more code now than in the past 10 years—despite being a PM for more than 25 years3. The three skills that matter most for PMs in 2025: curiosity, humility, and agency4. How to identify “sharp problems”5. AI at the core vs. AI at the edge: why companies that are building entirely new AI-centric codebases will beat those just “sprinkling AI” on existing products6.

Mea culpa! Mea maxima culpa! Yes, it seems like we suffered a bad case of "missing Maverick" during our rider reviews. What can we say - he was right in the middle and we just straight skipped him. Scandalous! Seems like the rider reviews aren't quite done, yet...What have we got in other news? For starters, there's Constructors' World Championship. That's the grading system where we're not looking for the best rider, but the best bike. Don't feel bad if the above doesn't immediately make you feel excited or even ring a bell, because the Constructer's Championship is woefully underexposed in MotoGP. That's a shame, because it is an arena where the stakes, drama and tension are all sky-high.In other words, it makes for good stories. And we all love a good story, right?So now that we've done all the riders, let's have a look at their rides and dive straight into this championship-inside-a-championship. Cheers! Want more?

About Chip Conley:Chip Conley is a renowned entrepreneur, best-selling author, and dynamic speaker celebrated for his innovative approach to leadership and hospitality. He founded Joie de Vivre Hospitality, transforming a single boutique hotel into the second-largest boutique hotel brand in the United States. In 2013, he joined Airbnb as Head of Global Hospitality and Strategy, mentoring its Millennial founders and guiding the company to become the world's most valuable hospitality brand. Inspired by his midlife journey and experiences, Chip co-founded the Modern Elder Academy (MEA) in 2018, the world's first midlife wisdom school. Located in Baja California, MEA helps individuals navigate midlife transitions and cultivate a renewed sense of purpose. In this episode, Dean Newlund and Chip Conley discuss:Happiness, Wisdom, and Emotional Growth in the Second Half of LifeThe role of emotional intelligence in aging and leadershipCultivating awe and wisdomRedefining aging and the midlife experienceSocial infrastructure and community building Key Takeaways:The "U-curve of happiness" shows that after hitting a low point around age 47-50, people often experience increasing happiness due to emotional intelligence and growing contentment.Midlife can be seen as a chrysalis for personal transformation, offering opportunities to repurpose one's life rather than succumbing to societal narratives of crisis.Viewing friendship as a practice, with intentional deep conversations and emotional openness, strengthens connections and provides resilience during challenges.Reframing aging involves shifting from a negative perception of decline to a positive focus on growth, allowing midlife to become a transformative period for cultivating wisdom, discovering purpose, and fostering meaningful connections. "Our painful life lessons are the raw material for our future wisdom.” — Chip Conley Connect with Chip Conley:  Website: https://chipconley.com/ & https://www.meawisdom.com/Email: chip@chipconley.comBook: https://chipconley.com/my-books/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/chipconleysf/ See Dean's TedTalk “Why Business Needs Intuition” here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EEq9IYvgV7I Connect with Dean:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgqRK8GC8jBIFYPmECUCMkwWebsite: https://www.mfileadership.com/The Mission Statement E-Newsletter: https://www.mfileadership.com/blog/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/deannewlund/X (Twitter): https://twitter.com/deannewlundFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/MissionFacilitators/Email: dean.newlund@mfileadership.comPhone: 1-800-926-7370 Show notes by Podcastologist: Hanz Jimuel AlvarezAudio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.
