Donald Trump's war on Pope Leo is worsening. JD Vance warned that the Pope, who condemned Trump's war on religious grounds, should “be careful” in his theology. Mike Johnson dismissed the Pope's criticisms by bizarrely invoking Just War Doctrine, which Trump and Pete Hegseth are serially violating. All this reveals Trump to be demanding that his leading sycophants (even devoutly religious ones) place him above the Pope—and indeed that they recognize no higher allegiance than to the president. Meanwhile, The New York Times has an epic piece on his mental decline, which reports that many ex-allies are sounding the alarm, from Marjorie Taylor Greene to numerous top first-term advisers. We talked to former national security official Olivia Troye, who just announced a run for Congress. She recounts what she witnessed first-hand about Trump's unfitness, why his enablers are much worse this time around, and how his madness is now impacting Americans' everyday lives.

The Nancy Guthrie case forced a question that should terrify anyone paying attention: what happens when an investigation is run by the wrong people from the start — and instead of finding the truth, the system builds a case around the most convenient answer?In Tucson, the Guthrie investigation has raised questions about whether underqualified personnel handled the most critical early hours. In Delphi, Indiana, that same kind of failure played out across five years — and may have ended with the wrong man in prison.On February 13, 2017, teenagers Abby Williams and Libby German were murdered near the Monon High Bridge Trail. Libby had the presence of mind to record her killer approaching on her phone. Within three days, a man named Richard Allen walked into a local office and voluntarily placed himself on that trail, at the right time, in the right clothing. That tip was misfiled. It sat in a box for five years while Allen lived in Delphi and worked at the local CVS. The Carroll County Sheriff's Department — a tiny agency that had never handled a double homicide — was overwhelmed from day one.When Allen was finally arrested, he was held in solitary confinement for thirteen months. Mental health evaluators found him gravely disabled. He began confessing — but according to the defense's appeal brief, he told his psychiatrist he shot the girls. They were killed with a blade. No DNA linked him to the scene. No murder weapon was recovered. The judge excluded an alternative suspect theory, a composite sketch that doesn't resemble Allen, and expert testimony challenging the bullet evidence. The jury convicted in under four hours.Just as the Guthrie case raises questions about whether loyalty appointments shaped who was in the room, Delphi forces the question of what happens when the wrong people build momentum in the wrong direction — and the system can't course-correct. Allen's appeal is before the Indiana Court of Appeals. The investigative failures are not in dispute.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
The Advanced Training Institute didn't educate children. It produced members.ATI was IBLP's closed homeschooling system — fifty-four "wisdom booklets" filtering every subject through Bill Gothard's theology. Families couldn't just enroll. They had to attend both the Basic and Advanced Seminars first. The curriculum wasn't available to the public. Once inside, children learned math through biblical numerology, science through creationism, and history through Christian nationalism. Critical thinking wasn't a gap in the education. It was what the education was designed to prevent.Girls were trained for domestic life. One former member only learned up to fractions — her father said it was sufficient for baking. College was discouraged unless a woman's future husband might someday become incapacitated. Boys were funneled into training centers and programs like ALERT Academy, where they were isolated, given hard labor, and told their service was spiritual.The training centers operated as a labor pipeline. Young people worked fourteen-hour days with no compensation at facilities the organization used for conferences, administration, and outreach. At Indianapolis, a hidden-camera investigation uncovered paddling and solitary confinement. A former resident described being restrained with duct tape.Psychology was rejected. Mental health was invisible. Emotional struggle was treated as spiritual failure. Children raised in this system had no vocabulary for their own anxiety, no framework for self-advocacy, and no model for life outside the walls.ATI ceased enrollment in 2021. The children it produced — now adults in their thirties and forties — are still carrying what it gave them and what it deliberately withheld.

Breaking mental strongholds by replacing lies with truth, by Pastor Lana Savchuk, and taking every thought captive to Christ.
Welcome back to Truth, Lies & Work, the award-winning podcast where behavioural science meets workplace culture. This week is a very special "cross-over" episode as we are joined by Alexis Zahner and Sally Clarke, hosts of the Live+Work More Human podcast. Together, we tackle the "bums on seats" myth, the stress of AI limits, and why being a "vulnerable" leader is more nuanced than you think.
Hi Mamas, Grab your free spot for the Calm Connection Parenting online summit happening April 20th-24th: Click here SAVE MY SEAT! If your closet feels cluttered… overwhelming… or like a game of Jenga every time you open it… This episode is for you. As part of our Declutter Your Life Throwback Series, we're bringing back one of the most impactful organizing episodes… with a few bonus tips to help you not only declutter your closet… but keep it that way. Because let's be honest… This isn't just about clothes. It's about: Mental clutter Decision fatigue That constant feeling of being behind And today… we're clearing it out.
Human beings have an issue. We want adventure, growth, and transformation, provided they arrive gently, avoid inconvenience, and never make us look foolish. This episode is about that charming contradiction. We spend years building small fortresses of competence, then wonder why life begins to feel boring. The trouble is that courage rarely appears before action; it usually turns up afterwards, slightly out of breath, claiming it was there all along. So we explore three ways to make peace with failure and even, in a highly civilised way, become rather fond of it. There's a bit of psychology, a bit of neuroscience, and a useful reminder that nearly everyone you admire got good by being bad at things for quite a while. Failure, properly understood, is not a catastrophe. It is more like compost: unpleasant in the wrong light, but extremely useful if you're trying to grow something interesting. Redefine failure as information, not identity. Make small, repeated discomfort a weekly practice. Stop mistaking safety for a meaningful life. Listen in and give your fears the deeply disappointing experience of being ignored. SPONSORS

As you get close to retirement, something unexpected starts to happen. The math looks good. The plan works. And yet, you hesitate. In this episode, James Conole explores the quiet mental traps that show up right before one of the biggest transitions of your life. The numbers are no longer the problem. Your mindset is. Doubt creeps in. One more year starts to sound reasonable. The feeling of “not enough” never quite goes away, no matter how much you've saved.What makes this so difficult is that the justifications feel logical. Work one more year and the portfolio grows. Wait a little longer and things might feel more certain. But underneath that logic is something deeper. A hesitation to step into the unknown. A reluctance to let go of the identity and structure that work has provided for decades.The reality is that certainty is never coming. There will always be another headline, another election, another reason to wait. And the number that finally feels like enough often moves just as quickly as you approach it.This conversation is a reminder that retirement is not just a financial decision. It is a human one. The discomfort you feel is not a signal that you are not ready. It is often a sign that you are standing right at the edge of a meaningful change.A good plan does not eliminate uncertainty. It gives you a way to move forward in spite of it._ _ Advisory services are offered through Root Financial Partners, LLC, an SEC-registered investment adviser.

Mental institutions have a way of leaving their mark—whether it's through the haunting tales of abandoned asylums, the horrifying experiences shared by patients and staff, or the disturbing reality of 19th-century facilities that turned human suffering into a spectacle.Look for this podcast on YouTube Music, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeart Radio, Amazon Music, Pandora, TuneIn Radio, and other apps. Get the full list of options here: https://pod.link/1078714736*No AI Voices Are Used In The Narration Of This Podcast*IN THIS EPISODE: Mental Institutions, psychiatric hospitals, lunatic asylums… whatever you want to call them, they can do good work if given the right resources and staff, helping patients to live through or possibly even overcome mental health crises. But even in the more well-funded locations, nightmares still occur according to both staff and patients. And even when those institutions are abandoned and left to rot, many refuse to release the tormented souls who have somehow found themselves entrapped there in the afterlife. We'll look at haunted asylums, we'll hear some horrifying true stories from both patients and workers about what happens inside asylums that are still in operation, and we'll learn about the horrifying reality of mental asylums in the 19th century acting almost like amusement parks for paying visitors.

This one thing may come off as surprising, but hang on for this one. The one thing you absolutely MUST have to conquer your eating disorder—it's not what you think. It's not willpower. It's not perfect discipline. It's not having it all together. It's strength—but not the kind you've been taught. We've been lied to about what strength actually means. We think strength is restriction, control, pushing through pain. But that's not strength—that's fear disguised as discipline. In this episode, you'll discover: What strength is NOT (and why we've been measuring it wrong) The real strength that saves lives in recovery Why physical strength won't heal your eating disorder How to build mental and emotional "muscles" instead The recovery "reps" that actually matter Why keeping promises to yourself builds the foundation of healing The strength that shows up especially when you want to give up Ready to redefine what strength means and build the kind that actually sets you free? WHAT STRENGTH IS NOT Strength is NOT: Your ability to restrict food Skipping meals when you're hungry Pushing your body past its limits Ignoring what your body needs Control disguised as strength Fear disguised as discipline We've been conditioned to think strength is all about the body—but that's the lie that keeps us trapped. WHAT TRUE STRENGTH ACTUALLY IS True strength is: Doing the hard thing when no one is watching Keeping promises you make to yourself Putting one foot in front of the other no matter what Commitment and consistency (not perfection and control) Eating when you don't want to, don't feel like it, aren't hungry Honoring commitments when you're terrified of the outcome Choosing recovery actions when you have nothing to prove It's the tenacity even when you want to give up—especially when you want to give up. THE RECOVERY "REPS" THAT BUILD REAL STRENGTH Just like building muscle requires reps, building true strength requires recovery reps: Rep #1: Committing to have something at every meal Rep #2: Eating the snack when snacks seem pointless Rep #3: Taking rest days when that feels like laziness Rep #4: Speaking kindly to yourself when the mirror tells lies Rep #5: Choosing recovery thoughts over eating disorder thoughts Every single recovery choice is a rep that builds life-saving strength. MENTAL & EMOTIONAL WORKOUTS Mental strength reps: Challenging ED thoughts instead of believing them automatically Practicing mindfulness when your brain wants to spiral Choosing self-compassion when you make mistakes Focusing on recovery goals when motivation is low Emotional strength reps: Sitting with anxiety instead of restricting to make it go away Feeling emotions without numbing with compulsions Celebrating small wins even when they don't feel big enough The stronger your mental and emotional muscles get, the less power your eating disorder has over you. BUILDING SELF-TRUST THROUGH KEPT PROMISES True strength is keeping promises to yourself. Every kept commitment builds self-trust. Every follow-through when no one is watching proves you're reliable and worth keeping promises to. Self-trust is the foundation of recovery. You can't heal if you don't trust yourself to make good choices or handle life without the disorder. Every kept promise builds that trust, rep by rep by rep. KEY QUOTES

John Goldman is the founder of Rebel Health Alliance, a concierge medical team built around your optimization and longevity needs. Learn more at https://rebelhealthalliance.io EPISODE SUMMARY BELOW: 1. The "All In" Philosophy and Family Motivation Commitment as a Prerequisite for Success: Both Nate and John agree that achieving extraordinary goals requires an "all-in" mentality, involving sacrifices that may seem "crazy" to others. John believes total dedication is necessary to build something from nothing. Family is a 100% motivating factor: John's primary motivation is to demonstrate to his wife and children that one can achieve anything with full commitment. He believes actions are more impactful than words, as children observe their parents' behavior. The process of dedication itself is the real lesson he wants to set. Parents should lead by example to instill a family culture of health and fitness: John believes he needed to be the leader in setting the tone for an athletic lifestyle. He taught his children various lifts and guided them into athletics, resulting in his daughter becoming a D1 rower, his son a college baseball pitcher, and his youngest a competitive volleyball player. 2. Personal Stories and Shifting Perspectives Anecdote about LeBron James: Nate shares a personal story of his brother playing against LeBron James in high school. LeBron, already famous, dunked on his brother, leaving him devastated at the time. A negative experience can become a treasured memory over time: The "posterizing" incident with LeBron is now a glorious family memory, commemorated with a signed picture. This illustrates the observation that "the older you get, the smarter your parents get," as their parents had predicted this shift in perspective. 3. Marathon Training: Past Failures and New Strategy Using a generic AI training app for a marathon can be ineffective: John trained for his first marathon using a running app, which led to a poor race experience where he "conked out" at mile 20. Overemphasis on speed work without a sufficient aerobic base is a flawed strategy: The app prescribed too much speed work without building a strong aerobic base (Zone 1/Zone 2), which is crucial for endurance and burning fat for fuel. Low heart rate (Zone 2) training significantly improves running efficiency: Working with a coach, John has spent four months training almost exclusively in Zone 2. This has improved his "easy pace" from 12:30/mile to 9:30/mile while maintaining the same low heart rate (capped at 130-135 bpm). The training goal is to build a large aerobic base before adding speed work: The strategy is to continue base-building until July before incorporating sharpening workouts like intervals and tempo runs, aiming for a consistent race pace. 4. Comprehensive Training Regimen Weekly Running Schedule with Cross-Training: The weekly schedule includes 6 days of running (easy runs, extended runs with intervals, speed work, and a progressive long run) and active recovery (10,000-meter row on the off day). John strongly prefers running outdoors, even in extreme weather, instead of using a treadmill. Specific Strength Training for Runners: The regimen includes two days of strength training focusing on unilateral movements (e.g., single-leg RDLs), core work, and mobility to build functional strength and prevent injury. Meticulous Diet and Nutrition Strategy: Following a plan from a performance dietitian, John cycles his calories and macronutrients based on training intensity (2200-2900 calories). He tracks every gram of food to systematically reach his target race weight while ensuring he is properly fueled. 5. Physical and Mental Transformation Endurance training has led to significant physiological changes: Through Zone 2 training, John's resting heart rate has dropped from the 70s to the low 40s, his HRV has improved from ~20 to ~80, and he has lost 35 pounds. Shifting from a power/strength focus to endurance is mentally challenging: Having been a 245 lb powerlifter, John finds it "disheartening" to see his lifting numbers decrease as he actively tries to lose another 25 pounds. This involves reducing protein intake and his TRT dose, which "cuts against everything" he has done before. Mental preparation is paramount for endurance: Referencing the book "How Bad Do You Want It?", John emphasizes that the brain often quits before the body. He uses mental dissociation techniques, like the "elephant and the rider" analogy, to observe pain without letting it overwhelm him. He believes ultimate success is determined by meticulous preparation, making race day a matter of "stone cold execution." 6. The Goal: Boston Marathon Event and Qualifying Time: John is running the Indianapolis Monumental Marathon on November 7th. To qualify for the 2028 Boston Marathon, he is targeting a time of 3 hours and 15 minutes, which is faster than the 3:20:00 required for his age group (Men 50-54) to ensure a spot. Uncertainty about future fitness identity: After the marathon, John is unsure if he will continue the "skinny runner" lifestyle or return to powerlifting, though he suspects he will want to perform well at Boston. 7. Rebel Health's High-Performance Service Integrated Team Approach for Optimization: John's company, Rebel Health, provides clients with an integrated team (doctor, strength coach, dietitian, genetic counselor) to create a unified plan for moving from "90 percent to 99 percent" in their health and performance. Conclusion The conversation details John's "all in" journey to qualify for the Boston Marathon, a goal driven by a desire to set an example of dedication for his children. Transitioning from a powerlifter to an endurance athlete, he has adopted a highly structured regimen. Key takeaways are that a family culture of fitness has a lasting impact, and for marathon training, a methodical approach focused on building a strong aerobic base through low-heart-rate (Zone 2) training is superior to generic, speed-focused apps. Supported by an expert team from his company, Rebel Health, John's approach integrates a demanding physical schedule, a meticulous diet, and specific mental preparation techniques. This journey has led to dramatic improvements in his running efficiency and health metrics but also involves the difficult mental and physical shift of reshaping his body for endurance over power.

Mental health is often treated like a guessing game, but what if we could actually see what's happening in the brain?In this episode, Dr. Steve Rondeau, founder of Axon EEG Solutions and author of Think Like a Brain, breaks down how brain-based data is changing the way we understand mental health, postpartum struggles, and behavior in both women and children.We dive into why traditional diagnoses often miss the root cause, how brain patterns shape your personality and responses, and why your environment plays a bigger role than you think. This conversation also explores a newly released study on hormonal birth control and antidepressant response, the concept of the “overwhelmed brain,” and how small shifts in your daily life can dramatically change your mental resilience.If you've ever felt like something is off but can't explain why, or wondered why one season of life feels manageable while another feels overwhelming, this episode will completely reframe how you think about your brain, your behavior, and your capacity.00:00 Intro 01:52 Why mental health is still a guessing game 03:40 The misdiagnosis that exposes a broken system 06:10 Can brain scans predict personality 09:30 Why people experience life differently 13:15 Birth control and antidepressant study 16:47 Why one-size-fits-all treatment fails 18:40 Why postpartum experiences vary 22:40 Your brain isn't broken your environment is 24:21 When symptoms don't match the diagnosis 26:40 The case that changed everything 29:10 Why root causes get missed 32:10 Are brain patterns genetic or learned 34:40 The 3 areas that shape mental health 37:40 Why you can't just push through 39:10 The overwhelmed brain pattern 42:10 The habit that regulates your nervous system 43:46 Why coping mechanisms make sense 46:40 Why normal brains don't exist 49:10 Parenting and relationships through this lens 53:10 What's normal behavior for kids 55:10 The parenting mistake most people make 58:10 Are screens rewiring our brains 61:10 How to find brain scan providers 73:31 Outro Resources From This Episode:Dr. Rondeau's Website - https://axoneegsolutions.com/Dr. Rondeau's Book: Think Like Brain Treating Manual - https://www.amazon.com/Think-Like-Brain-Treating-Manual-ebook/dp/B0GFXQK1DVFollow Dr. Steve Rondeau on Socials:Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/people/Dr-Steve-Rondeau/100068808602146/LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/dr-steven-rondeau-148aa421/Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/dr_rondeau_qeeg/Dr. Morgan's Pregnancy Call Lessons - https://milkmedicine.com/lessonsonly/Healthy As A Mother Podcast | YouTubeHealthy As A Mother Podcast | InstagramHealthy As A Mother Podcast | TikTokHealthy As A Mother Podcast | Merch StoreFind more from Dr. Leah:Dr. Leah Gordon | InstagramDr. Leah Gordon | WebsiteWomanhood Wellness | WebsiteFind more from Dr. Morgan:Dr. Morgan MacDermott | InstagramDr. Morgan MacDermott | WebsiteUse code HAAM and save 10% at FondUse code HEALTHYMOTHER and save 15% at RedmondFor 20% off your first order at Needed, use code HEALTHYMOTHERSave $260 at Lumebox, use code HEALTHYASAMOTHER
Do you have a habit like smoking or late night snacking that you want to kick, but no matter what you try, you just can't seem to quit? The answer isn't weakness, and it isn't a lack of motivation. It lives in the 88% of your brain you're not consciously controlling, and therapeutic hypnosis (hypnotherapy) may be one of the most underestimated tools available to change it.On Salad with a Side of Fries, host Jenn Trepeck and guest Rita Black, a leading clinical hypnotherapist and author, pull back the curtain on hypnosis and hypnotherapy for weight loss, smoking cessation, and breaking stubborn subconscious patterns. If you've ever asked yourself why you can't stop doing something you genuinely don't want to do, this conversation was made for you.What You Will Learn in This Episode:✅ How hypnotherapy works by relaxing the critical filter between your conscious and subconscious mind, making it easier to adopt new habits and beliefs rather than fighting against deeply embedded patterns.✅ Why willpower represents only 12% of your mental power, and how your subconscious patterns from night eating to emotional eating are running the show, whether you realize it or not.✅ How adopting an apprentice mindset and shifting your identity from "dieter" to "learner" can reduce shame, break the start-over-Monday cycle, and create sustainable behavioral change.✅ Three practical self-hypnosis techniques you can use today: the identity shift, the Movie Theater mental practice method, and aversion therapy tools that interrupt dopamine-driven cravings before they take hold.The Salad With a Side of Fries podcast, hosted by Jenn Trepeck, explores real-life wellness and weight-loss topics, debunking myths, misinformation, and flawed science surrounding nutrition and the food industry.

Why do allergies happen—and why do they seem to be getting worse every year? In this episode of Health Matters, host Courtney Allison sits down with Dr. David Gudis, an otolaryngologist and chief of the Division of Rhinology and Anterior Skull Base Surgery at NewYork‑Presbyterian and Columbia, to break down the basics of hay fever, also known as allergic rhinitis. Dr. Gudis explains what's really behind common allergy symptoms like sneezing, congestion, fatigue, and brain fog, and why hay fever is actually an overreaction of the immune system—not the pollen itself. He discusses why allergy seasons are lasting longer, how environmental factors and modern living may play a role, and the surprising ways allergies can affect sleep, concentration, and mental health. This episode offers practical, science‑based guidance—from simple prevention strategies to over‑the‑counter treatments and allergy shots—to help you breathe easier this season and beyond. Chapters: 00:00 – What Is Hay Fever? An introduction to allergic rhinitis and why allergy symptoms happen 04:00 – Why Are Allergy Seasons Getting Worse? Climate, environment, and changes in immune response 09:40 – How Do Allergies Affect Sleep, Focus, and Mental Health? The surprising impact on wellbeing, mood, and daily life 10:45 – How Do I Find Relief? Treatments That Work Avoidance strategies, medications, allergy shots, and nasal rinses Key Topics Covered: Hay fever / allergic rhinitis Immune system overreaction Seasonal and environmental allergies Mental health and sleep disruption Pollen season and climate effects Allergy prevention and treatment Nasal sprays, antihistamines, and immunotherapy Takeaway Message: Hay fever isn't “just allergies” — it's a real, systemic condition caused by an overactive immune response that can affect sleep, mood, concentration, and quality of life. The good news? Effective treatments exist, and with the right approach, allergy symptoms can be controlled Doctor Bio: Dr. David Gudis is an otolaryngologist and Chief of the Division of Rhinology and Anterior Skull Base Surgery at NewYork‑Presbyterian and Columbia.

This episode of Oscar Mike Radio is one of the most emotional and urgent conversations I've had. I sat down with Elizabeth Dubois, MBA, Ph.D. She is an Adjunct Professor at the University of Albany and the cousin of Army National Guard veteran JJ Millet, to talk about a situation that raises serious questions about how we treat veterans in crisis. What we discussed isn't easy, but it's necessary. What Happened to JJ Millet JJ is currently facing domestic terrorism charges following a psychiatric crisis. A crisis that was reportedly triggered by a change in medication prescribed through the VA system. As Elizabeth walked me through the timeline, one thing became clear: JJ didn't act out of malice; he reached out for help. He decided to call the 988 crisis line He voluntarily surrendered his weapons He took steps that, to me, reflect someone trying to do the right thing in a moment of distress Those actions don't look like a threat; they look like someone asking for help. When Seeking Help Becomes a Risk One of the most troubling parts of this conversation was learning how JJ's personal therapeutic journals were characterized. What were intended as private tools for healing were initially labeled as a “manifesto.” That kind of mischaracterization carries serious weight, and serious consequences. Because it raises a difficult but important question: What message does this send to other veterans? If someone in crisis does everything we encourage, calls for help, surrenders weapons, seeks support, yet still faces severe criminal charges, what does that do to trust in the system? A Bigger Issue Than One Case Elizabeth and JJ are united in one message: This is bigger than one person. This is about: Mental health support for veterans Accountability in how cases like this are handled Ensuring that seeking help never becomes a liability Protecting those who have already served and sacrificed Because when the system fails, even once, it creates hesitation for others who might be on the edge of reaching out. And hesitation, in moments of crisis, can be dangerous. Compassion, Not Fear What stayed with me most after this conversation was the need for compassion. Veterans should never feel like asking for help could lead to punishment. They should feel supported, understood, and protected. That's the standard we should be holding ourselves to. How You Can Help You can make a difference. Start by sharing JJ's story. Start conversations. Raise awareness about the importance of mental health support for veterans. Because change begins when people are willing to speak up. Final Thoughts JJ, you are not alone. And to Elizabeth, thank you for your courage in telling this story and standing up for your family. This conversation is a reminder that we still have work to do, but it's also a call to action. We are Oscar Mike, Mission in Flight.
What if your PCOS diagnosis is about more than fertility? What if the symptoms you've been told to "just manage" are actually your body asking for deeper support?

https://teachhoops.com/ Cori Close's UCLA rebuild is a blueprint for any coach trying to modernize a program with tradition: build a culture that scales, develop talent on purpose, and train the mental game like it's part of practice. Why this matters: UCLA just won the 2026 NCAA women's national championship with a dominant 79–51 win over South Carolina. 1) Culture: “Broom + Shovel” leadership Close uses a broom and shovel as daily reminders: serve first (broom) and dig below the surface (shovel). For high school coaches: your culture is built in the small things—how you treat managers, how you handle mistakes, how you model service. 2) Talent + Development: recruit it, then accelerate it UCLA added elite talent like Lauren Betts and built a roster that could dominate physically. But the key development lesson: when Close brought in a top freshman class, those freshmen averaged 19.0 minutes per game—a deliberate investment in growth. 3) Mental performance: the “Mind Gym” isn't optional UCLA built a daily mental routine—highlight clips, mindset work, and reset habits—to help players stay present and return to neutral after mistakes. If the mental side is “most of the game,” it has to be trained—consistently. April 4, 2015: UCLA won the program's first WNIT title under Close.
