Exodus 34:4b-6, 8-9Reading 1Early in the morning Moses went up Mount Sinaias the LORD had commanded him,taking along the two stone tablets.Having come down in a cloud, the LORD stood with Moses thereand proclaimed his name, "LORD."Thus the LORD passed before him and cried out,"The LORD, the LORD, a merciful and gracious God,slow to anger and rich in kindness and fidelity."Moses at once bowed down to the ground in worship.Then he said, "If I find favor with you, O Lord,do come along in our company.This is indeed a stiff-necked people; yet pardon our wickedness and sins,and receive us as your own."Reading 22 Corinthians 13:11-13Brothers and sisters, rejoice. Mend your ways, encourage one another,agree with one another, live in peace,and the God of love and peace will be with you.Greet one another with a holy kiss.All the holy ones greet you.The grace of the Lord Jesus Christand the love of Godand the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with all of you.GospelJohn 3:16-18God so loved the world that he gave his only Son,so that everyone who believes in him might not perishbut might have eternal life.For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world,but that the world might be saved through him.Whoever believes in him will not be condemned,but whoever does not believe has already been condemned,because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.

In 2001, Portugal decriminalised the possession and use of all illicit drugs. It was a move designed to mitigate the country's public health crisis, which at the time meant Portugal had one of the worst rates of overdose deaths in Europe, as well as the highest rate of HIV among drug users. Whilst drugs remained illegal, users did not receive a criminal record but were instead referred to rehabilitation and treatment programmes. It was an approach that proved so successful, that it has remained in place for a quarter of a century. But just over 10 years after its introduction, Portugal's drugs policy started to come under strain as the country's economic crisis and subsequent austerity measures led to budget cuts for drug services. More recently the rising cost of living has diverted people's attention from investment in this field. On top of this, the trafficking of cocaine and newer substances into the country along with changing demographics is putting decriminalisation under strain. So, on The Inquiry this week, we're asking ‘Is Portugal's drugs policy in need of reform?'

Religion, spirituality, faith, worldview, whatever you might call it - it is usually a very private matter in the United States and one that can be full of judgment. At the same time, it is something that informs our values, our choices and how we parent. So in keeping with our style, we decided to dive headlong into it. We aim to speak honestly from our personal experience, based on the mutual trust we have among the three of us and our listeners. We are not aiming to "convert" anyone to our viewpoint but to give visibility to this intimate but very central part of our lived experience.In this episode, we speak with Kristin Lee, a Chinese-American physician, mom, wife and author of We Mend With Gold- An Immigrant Daughter's Reckoning with American Christianity. She talks about the deep joys as well as the misgivings she experienced growing up in the Asian-American church, and the questions that she wrestled with as a young adult. We also discuss the relationship between the white American church and more marginalized Christian voices and how mending those often fractured relationships can lead to a more healthy, beautiful and authentic faith community.To learn more about Kristin's work, check out:Book: We Mend with GoldIG: @ktlee.writesWebsite: https://kristintlee.com/

On this episode of The Rewrite, I sit down with Meredith Beardmore—licensed therapist, author, and founder of Mend with Mere—for a conversation that is as raw as it is powerful. Meredith opens up about loving someone struggling with addiction, the slow unraveling of a life that once felt stable, and the moment everything became impossible to ignore. We talk about:• Why divorcing an addict is a completely different experience • The hidden toll of high-functioning women who “hold it all together” • Betrayal, shame, and the truth about staying longer than you think you should • What it actually takes to rebuild—without toxic positivity Her story is heartbreaking, honest, and ultimately… empowering. This is for the woman who is quietly questioning everything.The one who feels strong on the outside—but exhausted within.The one ready to stop negotiating with reality.

Today on the pod, I'm joined by Jeremy David Engles, author of Mindful Democracy, a thought-provoking and deeply timely exploration of what it means to bring awareness, compassion, and presence into our collective life. Jeremy's work is inspired in part by the teachings of Thích Nhất Hạnh. In this conversation, we explore:·     What democracy truly is and what it isn't. ·     We look at how our inner landscape shapes the outer systems we participate in, and why the quality of our attention may be one of the most political acts we have.·     We also dive into the distinction between mindfulness as a practice—something we do—and Buddhism as a path—something we live. ·     Jeremy shares how even the smallest shifts, like cultivating an “inner smile,” can soften reactivity and open the door to deeper connection, both within ourselves and with others.·     And we touch on the beautiful and transformative practice of Metta, or loving-kindness meditation, as a way of relating to ourselves, to others, and even to those we struggle with, through a lens of compassion rather than division.I hope you enjoyed this episode and feel inspired to share it. You can subscribe, leave a review, or watch the full episode on YouTube.

After turning 60, Deb Benfield began questioning societal messages around aging, vitality, and beauty, and quickly realized how many resources still centered weight loss and youth as ultimate goals. In response, she created what she couldn't find: a framework for nourishing the body that honors inner wisdom, prioritizes quality of life, and embraces the full spectrum of aging.Deb Benfield, M.Ed., RDN, LDN, RYT is a Nutrition Therapist, Registered Dietitian, and Body Image Coach with 40 years of experience helping people heal their relationship with food, movement, and their bodies.In my time with Deb, we discuss her book, Unapologetic Aging: How to Mend and Nourish Your Relationship with Your Body.

In this episode, he opens up about the moment when he decided to switch out alcohol for finding a hobby, how he landed on golf, and how having an addict's mentality is both a blessing and a curse.This is a grounded conversation about addiction, mental health, and a personalised, thoughtful approach to recovery - not as a straight line, but as something messy and ongoing.YOU CAN WATCH THE FULL EPISODE WITH TUBES HERE00:00 Best Day on the Course00:52 How Golf Replaced Drinking02:06 Everyone in Recovery Needs a Hobby03:05 Using Golf as an Excuse to Drink04:21 Becoming Obsessed with Golf05:02 The Addictive Personality Explained06:06 Why Golf Helps Mental Health07:25 Addiction vs Mental Health Differences08:18 Replacing Alcohol with Something Better10:01 Connection, Friendship and Staying SoberHeights

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1313: An FTC webinar that raised more questions than answers, a new fix for broken EV chargers, plus collision repair education starting in elementary school.The much anticipated webinar hosted by NADA to, which included an FTC representative, left thousands of dealers and industry partners frustrated and provided no additional clarification on advertising rules.According to a recap email sent out by industry compliance company, ComplyAuto:The FTC's stated goal is to "level the playing field" for dealers who are already advertising correctly.The FTC refused to answer NADA's questions. FTC official Helen Clark declined to respond, offering nothing beyond what was already in the warning letters, but stated the questions will be considered.NADA raised key issues that went unanswered: whether federal law preempts state doc fee laws (those that allow or require exclusion), whether MSRP can still be advertised, whether a less prominent conditional price is permissible, and liability for third-party lead provider websites.NADA pushed back, noting consent decrees go above and beyond the law and bind only the settling party.Bottom line: nothing new was provided. All open questions remain unanswered.Everged is taking aim at one of EV adoption's biggest headaches: broken public chargers. Its new Zero Cost Swap Program replaces outdated or non-working units with fully managed, modern equipment, giving site hosts a way to fix reliability issues without upfront costs.The program targets aging or unsupported chargers that often get stranded when providers exit the market.Everged covers removal, installation, and activation of new Level 2 or DC fast chargers.Ongoing support includes 24/7 monitoring, maintenance, and real-time diagnostics to maximize uptime.Many swaps can reuse existing electrical infrastructure, speeding deployment and avoiding new permits.Everged President James Dion said, “We are so confident in our technology stack that…we all win: our site hosts, EV drivers, and Everged.”Collision repair education is starting earlier than ever, like elementary school early. Instructor Jerry Weston Jr. is teaching kids as young as five basic tools and hands-on skills, tackling a surprising problem: many students lack even the most fundamental mechanical knowledge.After-school programs are reaching students ages 5 to 13, introducing tools and repair concepts years before high school.Weston says he now has to teach basics like how to properly use a screwdriver, showing a sharp decline in foundational skills.Early exposure helps kids discover interests through hands-on tasks like dent removal, polishing, and painting.Programs are using engaging tech like VR paint simulators to make learning safe, fun, and accessible for younger students.Weston: “The more exposure they get, the stronger the future of the industry will be.”Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast  as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

What Is Somatic Therapy? Jennie of MEND Counseling Explains Trauma, Nervous System Healing, and Building a Therapy Team.On the Samantha Parker Show takeover series, Samantha interviews Jennie, owner of MEND Counseling Center in St. George, Utah, a group practice with seven other therapists (adding one more) chosen for extensive experience handling complex trauma. Jennie explains somatic therapy as “body” work focused on how the nervous system records experiences, describing physiological responses like tension, shaking, numbing/shutdown, and how pausing and breathing can help process emotions so trauma doesn't become encapsulated. She emphasizes talk therapy's value for safety, witnessing, and building a roadmap, but says somatic tools help resolve activation so memories become “net neutral,” mentioning modalities like brainspotting/EMDR and the role of window of tolerance. Jennie shares her path from college softball to psychology, wilderness therapy, and bodywork, plus a year-long psychedelic-assisted therapy training, and describes building a team to help more people. They also discuss self-care, community collaborations like Samantha's impact walks, and where to find MEND online.00:00 Welcome Back Jennie00:35 Blue Vibes Banter01:44 Meet MEND Counseling03:52 Somatic Therapy Basics05:53 Numbness Pause Trauma07:57 Talk Therapy vs Somatics11:56 Trauma Roadmap Safety15:14 Brainspotting Window Tolerance17:04 Why Jennie Became Therapist18:21 Softball Side Quest20:47 Somatics Bodywork Origins23:55 Talk Therapy Burnout24:23 Safe Adults for Kids25:10 Parents Creating Safety26:24 Making Therapy Engaging27:27 Why Build a Practice28:32 Psychedelic Therapy Safety29:56 Starfish Team Vision31:56 Leadership and Capacity34:26 Counterpressure Self Care38:55 Parenting and Connection40:32 Where to Find Mend40:59 Community Events and Wrap Up42:50 Traffic Banter GoodbyeJennie (MEND Counseling) InstagramWebsiteWant to Work with The Samantha Parker for Content Management  CLICK HEREFollow me on TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@samanthaparkershowYouTube https://www.youtube.com/@thesamanthaparkerInstagram https://www.instagram.com/thesamanthaparker/

Deb shares her own lived experience as a woman in her late 60s, a professional in the eating disorder field with decades of experience- and how she aims to challenge these harmful systems in her work with clients and anyone who follows her work.More about Deb:Deb Benfield, M.Ed., RDN, LDN, RYT, is a Registered Dietitian, nutrition therapist, and body image coach with 40 years of experience helping people heal their relationship with food, movement, and their bodies.

What's wrong with democracy these days? Can it be rescued? Can it be made more mindful? Can we work together to build something better? What's the role of compassion in building community? What's the role of conflict in building community?  Why do yoga and mindfulness communities often seem so averse to taking a stand and diving into different political or communal issues head on? Why does our world treat politics as some sort of childish, dirty game, like reality tv, instead of sacred duty? For the 250th anniversary of 1776, can somebody write a formal  Declaration of INTERdependence? Professor, teacher and author Jeremy David Engels—author of the brand new book A Mindful Democracy—just wrote one, and Ethan welcomed him to The Road Home podcast to discuss it, and more. Jeremy David Engels, Ph.D., is the author of six books, including the new On Mindful Democracy: A Declaration of Interdependence to Mend a Fractured World (Parallax, 2026), and the creator of the Zen and the Art of Democracy Substack. He is the Liberal Arts Endowed Professor of Communication and Ethics at Penn State University, co-founder of Yoga Lab, and a longtime mindfulness and yoga teacher. His work reimagines democracy as a communal practice rooted in care, deliberation, and shared responsibility, emphasizing mindfulness as a core civic skill.
