What is Pure Michigan actually built to do?Pure Michigan is not a “wake up and conquer the world” strain. It's usually a heavy hybrid that leans indica in feel, built more for depth than sparkle.This cultivar is commonly bred from Oreoz x Mendo Breath, which already tells you something. Both parents are known for dense structure, rich flavor, and body-forward effects.From Beehive Farmacy, batch specifics always matter, so check your label. But here's what Pure Michigan typically looks like chemically.• THC often in the high teens to mid 20 percent range• Very low CBD• Minor cannabinoids like CBG sometimes present in small amountsTranslation: this is THC dominant. If your tolerance is low, it can get heavy fast. This is not a microdose-first strain unless you intentionally keep it that way.Common dominant terpenes in Pure Michigan:• Caryophyllene• Myrcene• LimoneneCaryophyllene is the spicy, peppery terpene that also interacts with CB2 receptors, often associated with body relief.Myrcene leans sedating in higher concentrations.Limonene can add a slight mood lift or brightness.When myrcene and caryophyllene sit high together, you usually get that “deep exhale” body experience. Muscles loosen. Thoughts slow. The edges soften.Not guaranteed. But that's the tendency.At moderate doses:• Strong body relaxation• Slower mental pace• Warm, heavy calm• Possible couch gravityAt higher doses:• Sleep pressure• Brain fog• Hard pivot into “I'm done for the night”This is typically not a strain people use for high productivity. It leans evening. Recovery. Decompression.Who is this for:• People looking to wind down• Evening use• Body tension• High stress daysWho should be cautious:• Anyone sensitive to sedation• Anyone needing mental sharpness• New consumers jumping straight into large dosesThe real takeaway here is this: Pure Michigan is more about weight than sparkle. If you're chasing heavy body calm, it usually delivers. If you're chasing clarity and energy, this probably isn't your lane.And like we always say, strain names are branding. The batch chemistry is the truth. Always read the COA. Always start lower than you think.Utah cannabis makes more sense when you stop chasing names and start reading numbers.Keep the Mic on.Fuel the movement. Keep the conversation going.We keep a running list of tools and brands we personally enjoy and actually use.Find everything in one place here:
Welcome to Unpacked, Five Questions, a podcast that takes you behind the scenes of one great travel story. In this episode, host and Afar executive editor Katherine LaGrave sits down with contributing writer Lisa Abend, a Copenhagen‑based journalist known for her deep reporting on food, culture, and the ways travel shapes communities. For her latest Afar feature, Lisa embarked on an ambitious road trip across northern Spain to visit five tiny towns where some of the country's most exciting chefs are opening destination restaurants — and, in the process, helping revive regions long affected by depopulation. Lisa shares how she first discovered this movement, why these chefs are choosing villages of just a few hundred residents over major cities, and how their restaurants are sparking unexpected ripple effects — from new guesthouses to revived local food traditions. She also talks about the surprising absence of seafood in northern Spain's inland kitchens, the emotional family histories behind many of these restaurants, and why chatting with gas‑station attendants might be the best road‑trip advice you'll hear all year. On this episode you'll learn: Why some of Spain's most ambitious chefs are opening restaurants in remote villages How food tourism can help counter rural depopulation What makes northern Spain's regional cultures so distinct — from language to landscape to cuisine Why hyperlocal cooking in these towns often excludes seafood, even when the coast is close How family history shapes the stories these chefs tell on the plate Don't miss these moments: [03:00] The Madrid chef conference that sparked Lisa's reporting [05:00] How a single restaurant can create a ripple effect across a small town [07:00] The surprising reason none of these restaurants serve seafood [14:00] Lisa's best advice for road‑tripping across northern Spain [16:00] The gas‑station cherry exchange that became an unforgettable travel moment [21:00] The “pregnant bun” dish Lisa would eat again in a heartbeat [22:00] How family stories — and even abandoned villages — shaped the chefs' menus Resources Read Lisa's full Afar feature on Spain's small‑town culinary revolution Follow Lisa Abend for more food and travel reporting Explore Afar's Spain travel guides Visit the restaurants Lisa mentions in the episode and her story: Versátil, Monte, Arrea!, Ansils, Fuentelgato Be sure to subscribe to the show and sign up for our podcast newsletter, Behind the Mic, where we share upcoming episodes and behind‑the‑scenes details.

What if your podcast isn't just content… but legacy?In Part 2 of the series Jesus Is Calling Women to the Mic, Theresa explores how podcasting becomes a spiritual inheritance; A way to leave a digital imprint of faith, courage, and testimony for generations to come.This episode speaks directly to Christian businesswomen who feel called to launch a podcast but hesitate because of fear, past wounds, or cultural noise. Theresa shares her personal journey of healing, overcoming emotional survival, and learning to speak from healed scars, not open wounds.You'll discover:Why your voice is part of your Kingdom legacyHow podcasting creates generational impactWhat it means to counter culture with anchored truthThe difference between speaking from wounds vs. scarsWhy healing must precede influenceHow to launch a Spirit-led podcast from overflow, not burnoutIf you've built a business but feel a deeper calling to use your voice, this episode will help you understand why Jesus is inviting women — especially in this season to step boldly to the mic.
The readings for this homily: https://bible.usccb.org/bible/readings/021626.cfmFather Chris Alar, MIC, reminds us of a truth the world constantly tries to obscure: Your soul is immortal — and it matters more than anything you own, achieve, or experience in this life. Jesus asks a question that cuts through every distraction: “What does it profit a man to gain the whole world and lose his soul?”We spend enormous energy protecting our bodies, careers, reputations, and comfort. But how attentive are we to the state of our soul? Physical suffering, financial loss, or public misunderstanding may wound us temporarily. Mortal sin wounds eternally. And yet, in His mercy, Christ never leaves us without remedy.Through Confession, the Eucharist, and Eucharistic Adoration, the Divine Physician continues to pour out the same healing grace that flowed from His pierced Heart. No sin is too great for His mercy. The only true tragedy is refusing the grace that is offered.Father Chris challenges us not to live casually, but consciously — aware that eternity is not abstract. It is approaching. The saints understand this. They live with urgency, not anxiety; conviction, not fear of creatures. They knew that losing everything in this world is survivable. Losing your soul is not.Run to mercy. Stay in the state of grace. Nourish your soul. And remember: The Lord desires your salvation even more than you do. ★ Support this podcast ★

New Testament Sermons / Speaker:Berry Kercheville The Gospel of Christ Crucified 1 Corinthians 1–2 Introduction: If you were asked what the primary sin-problem confronting the Corinthians, I'm sure most of you would immediately answer that it was a problem of being divisive. Paul said it plainly in the opening of his letter (1:10): “I appeal to you in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you all agree, and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be united in the same mind and the same judgment.” That solved it! Well, no. How can a church that won't even eat the Lord's Supper together, just be told to stop it, and then it happens? Even if you are very familiar with our text, Paul's teaching about the wisdom of God vs. the wisdom of man usually diverts our attention away from the subject of division. In other words, if a church called you and said, “We need help. Our church is full of division, would you come and help,” would you do a study of chapter two of 1 Corinthians with an exposition of the gospel of the cross? Quickly notice some of Paul's key statements that will give you a feel of his foundational message on division: 1:17-18 “For Christ did not send me to baptize but to preach the gospel, and not with words of eloquent wisdom, lest the cross of Christ be emptied of its power. For the word of the cross is folly to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.” 1:20-21 “Where is the one who is wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the debater of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? For since, in the wisdom of God, the world did not know God through wisdom, it pleased God through the folly of what we preach to save those who believe.” 2:1-4 “And I, when I came to you, brothers, did not come proclaiming to you the testimony of God with lofty speech or wisdom. For I decided to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ and him crucified. And I was with you in weakness and in fear and much trembling, and my speech and my message were not in plausible words of wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power, so that your faith might not rest in the wisdom of men but in the power of God.” 2:6-9 “Yet among the mature we do impart wisdom, although it is not a wisdom of this age or of the rulers of this age, who are doomed to pass away. But we impart a secret and hidden wisdom of God, which God decreed before the ages for our glory. None of the rulers of this age understood this, for if they had, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. But, as it is written, “What no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man imagined, what God has prepared for those who love him.” Now, having read those texts, would you say that Paul is correcting the divisions of the Corinthian church? Everything in this text has to do with the gospel of Christ crucified. But how is that an answer to division? That is the message we want to discover this morning. It is a message that will expose and correct every division within a church. Becoming Familiar with the Message of the Text First, Paul's emphasis is on the cross of Christ and that the message of the cross is foolish to those who hold to worldly wisdom including both Jews and Greeks. But the cross is our power to salvation (1:22-24). Second, Paul admits that it was God's intention to preach a “foolish” message to save the world (1:21). Third, this foolish message preached is a revelation of the thoughts and words of God, and could never have been thought of or discovered by a human mind. Not even the most exalted human could have understood what was hidden in the mind of God “before the ages for our glory” (2:7). Fourth, the thoughts of the mind of God have only been revealed by the Holy Spirit. The Spirit alone has access, and he alone chooses to whom the message will be revealed (2:10-13). Further, God has used the Spirit to reveal to the apostles and prophets the words of the Spirit, not the words of human thought. Fifth, Paul stresses a contrast between two kinds of “wisdom.” There are those who are wise according to this world's standards, and there are those who have rejected the wisdom of this world in favor of the “foolishness” of the wisdom of God, the foolishness of Christ crucified (2:6). These two “wisdoms” are opposed to one another. Sixth, those who hold to the wisdom of the world cannot understand, nor will they accept the wisdom taught by the Spirit (2:13-14). Seventh, only the “mature, spiritual person” (one who has accepted the things of the Spirit) can understand and receive the words of the Spirit because those words are spiritually discerned. A “natural man” cannot understand the hidden message of God because he is not spiritually discerning (2:14-15). Eighth, and possibly most importantly, Paul refused to preach this message with lofty speech or wisdom or plausible words of wisdom as was being done by the Corinthian sophists. Though Paul's preaching was considered unimpressive, the power of the sophists was in themselves, while the power of Paul's preaching was in the Spirit of God. The contrast was boasting in the man or boasting in the message of God—faith in the man or faith in the power of God. (2:2-4) Knowing Nothing Except Jesus Christ and Him Crucified As we briefly noted, Paul's concern is to rid the church of preaching that lifts up human wisdom and calls attention to the eloquence of the preacher instead of presenting the message of Christ crucified (2:2). We must get the significance of those words: “Jesus, the Christ (Messiah, King) crucified.” That really is foolish! It makes no sense! Combine 2:2 with 1:17. Paul was sent to preach a gospel that is grounded in Jesus Christ/King being crucified. Thus every part of Paul's message had as its foundation crucifixion. Anything else would empty the message of its power. But why is a crucified Messiah/King so important? Sure, we need to teach people why Jesus died and was raised and that he is enthroned as King. Yes, we want to urge them to obey Jesus, to repent of their sins and be baptized so they can be free from the bondage of sin. All of us get that point. But why does Paul say, “I decided to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ and him crucified?” In fact, in 1:18 Paul refers to the gospel as the “word of the cross,” or the “message of the cross.” Paul is obviously magnifying the word “cross” to the extent that anything taught about Jesus or any teaching of Jesus would go right back to the cross! The problem wasn't so much that “Jesus died for our sins,” but the implications of Christ crucified. The message of the cross is that if we believe in Christ crucified we must also accept the teaching of disciple–crucified. In 2:7, this is the hidden wisdom God decreed “before the ages to our glory.” That is in contrast to 1:27, “But God chose what is foolish in the world to shame the wise…even things that are not, to bring to nothing things that are, so that no human being might boast in the presence of God.” Do you see the message? The world seeks glory in themselves, boasting in their mental acuity, strength, and wealth. But a life of disciple–crucified seeks no glory in this world, but only the glory God has promised. Paul will later summarize the message of the cross in 2 Corinthians 4:11-12, “For we who live are always being given over to death for Jesus' sake, so that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our mortal flesh. So death is at work in us, but life in you.” The Gospel of Christ Crucified Applied, Chapters 3-4 What does Christ crucified have to do with division in the church and solving the Corinthian problem? In chapters 3-4 Paul transitions from his explanation of the gospel to how that gospel (disciple-crucified) message should be lived. When we read these first seven verses it is not difficult to see that the Corinthians are living out the wisdom of the world instead of what was considered the “foolishness of Christ crucified.” Look at Paul's directness! Imagine it read to the church! “You are still of the flesh!” I'm feeding you like an infant (Greek for “baby”) sucking on “milk!” You are “behaving in a human way” practicing jealousy and strife, exalting one teacher over another and boasting in them! “Are you not being merely human!” “What then is Apollos? What is Paul? Servants…!” Vs. 6-7, “…but God gave the growth. Neither he who plants nor he who waters is anything, but only God who gives the growth!” Vs. 16-21 Listen to the power in Paul's words as he drives home how these Christians are to act in accordance with Christ crucified: You are God's temple. Destroy God's temple and God will destroy you! (17). “If anyone thinks he is wise in this age, let him become a fool that he may become wise.” How dare any Christian to act independently of the rest of the body! Ephesians 5:22, “Submitting to one another out of reverence to Christ.” “For the wisdom of this world is folly to God. The Lord knows the thoughts of the wise, that they are futile!” “So let no one boast in men!” 4: 1: Regard us as servants and stewards. It is a small thing that I should be judged by you! 6-21 Mic drop! Conclusion: The Gospel of Christ Crucified Is Lived as a Disciple Crucified “Then Jesus told his disciples, ‘If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me.'” (Matt. 16:24) Berry Kercheville The post 1 Corinthians 1-2 The Gospel Christ Crucified appeared first on Woodland Hills Church of Christ.
There were some clues given out via NFL Films' Mic'd Up version of the Super Bowl about the Patriots looking tense and nervous with the moment. Did New England feel overwhelmed from the first time they took the field to warm up? Then, a special Arcand Fire where Christian tries to figure out what makes certain celebrities famous in the NBA All Star Celebrity game. And, you won't believe (or you probably will) where RFK Jr. once snorted cocaine from in Clickbait.
We have landed on the final day of the week sulking on the Patriots' Super Bowl performance and getting some confirmation about how they looked thanks to NFL Films. Did the Mic'd Up video prove how overwhelmed the Pats were against the Seahawks? Then, history is not on Drake Maye's side when it comes to returning to the Super Bowl, but his skills and the rest of the team are more than capable of rewriting said history. And, an early look at the offseason by naming one free agent and draft prospect to keep an eye on.
This episode covers: • Mic-628 Could Reset Your Body Clock and Cut Jet Lag in Half A new circadian drug candidate, Mic-628, has demonstrated the ability to shift the body's internal clock and significantly reduce jet-lag recovery time in early human studies. In controlled simulations, participants experienced faster realignment of their sleep-wake cycles and improved daytime performance compared to standard approaches like melatonin and light timing alone. Dave explains how this compound targets a core clock pathway, why eastbound travel is biologically harder than westbound, and how pharmacologic chronotherapy could become a serious performance tool for frequent travelers and shift workers. He also connects circadian alignment to obesity, insulin resistance, cardiovascular risk, and cognitive decline, outlining what this breakthrough could mean if safety data continues to hold. • Source: https://www.sciencedaily.com/news/top/ • Late-Life Depression May Signal Parkinson's or Dementia New research from Shanghai Jiao Tong University found that new-onset depression in older adults is strongly associated with increased risk of Parkinson's disease and dementia. Dave reframes this finding as a brain health signal rather than a purely psychiatric issue, explaining how inflammation, microglial activation, vascular health, and neurodegeneration intersect with mood changes. He breaks down why sudden depression in someone with no prior history may warrant deeper cognitive testing, sleep evaluation, and metabolic screening instead of simply prescribing an antidepressant and moving on. This story highlights the importance of treating mood shifts as early biological data in a longevity framework. • Source: https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2026/02/260210040623.htm • Speed-Training Brain Games Reduced Dementia Risk by 25 Percent The long-running NIH-funded ACTIVE trial found that a specific speed-of-processing training program reduced dementia incidence by roughly 25 percent over two decades. Unlike memory or reasoning exercises, this visual processing speed protocol produced measurable long-term protection. Dave explains why reaction time and processing speed may be core capacities tied to cognitive resilience, and how structured brain-training programs descended from this research can be treated like strength training for the mind. Instead of vague advice to “stay mentally active,” this data supports building deliberate, trackable cognitive training into a midlife longevity plan. • Sources: – NPR summary: https://www.npr.org/2026/02/09/nx-s1-5702423/modest-mental-exercise-can-reduce-risk-of-dementia-for-decades-study-finds – Psychology Today analysis: https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/build-your-brain/202602/new-study-means-the-age-of-dementia-prevention-begins-now • Moderate Coffee Intake Linked to Slower Brain Aging A large analysis of roughly 130,000 participants found that moderate coffee consumption, about one to three cups daily, was associated with markers of slower brain aging and lower dementia risk. Dave explains why moderate, morning-weighted caffeine intake may align acute performance benefits with potential long-term brain protection. He breaks down the dose curve, why more is not necessarily better, and how to use coffee strategically without compromising sleep or circadian rhythm. Rather than framing caffeine as either a miracle or a villain, this study supports intelligent, personalized dosing as part of a broader brain-health stack. • Source: https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-026-00409-y • Kratom Crackdowns and the Future of Supplement Freedom Regulators are tightening restrictions on high-potency kratom derivatives such as 7-hydroxymitragynine, with new bans and stricter warning requirements emerging at the state level. The FDA continues to treat kratom and its concentrated derivatives as unapproved drugs with opioid-like effects, while local jurisdictions are targeting specific formulations linked to adverse events. Dave breaks down how this represents a broader shift in how edge-case compounds are regulated, why supply volatility and underground markets can increase risk, and what this means for biohackers who experiment with gray-area tools. He also explains how evolving enforcement strategies could shape future access to peptides, nootropics, and other advanced compounds. • Sources: – Kansas City coverage: https://www.kshb.com/news/local-news/strong-high-weak-laws-7-oh-ban-kratom-regulation-moves-forward-in-kansas-city-missouri – Florida policy coverage: https://www.wgcu.org/health/2026-02-04/kratom-advocates-tout-its-properties-but-legislators-want-strict-warnings-about-the-herbal-supplement – Legal landscape analysis: https://www.lumalexlaw.com/2025/10/09/kratoms-legal-future-how-states-and-the-federal-government-are-responding/ – FDA background: https://www.fda.gov/news-events/public-health-focus/fda-and-kratom All source links are provided for direct access to the original reporting and research. This episode is designed for biohackers, longevity seekers, and high-performance listeners who want mechanism-level clarity on circadian biology, neurodegeneration signals, cognitive training, caffeine strategy, and supplement regulation.

And how much of that is just our own insecurity filling in the blanks.Then it spirals, in the best way.We talk about success. Not the Instagram version. The real version.Is it money? Status? A title?Or is it being at peace driving a beat-up car and actually liking your life?We bring up people like Logan Paul and Keanu Reeves and why one gets constant heat while the other feels untouchable. Is it fame? Or is it how they carry themselves?There's a story about generosity that hit hard. The kind that makes you want to level up as a human. Not for clout. Not for applause.

In this special episode, you'll meet 15 podcasters across 14 shows as they introduce their platforms and reflect on their ageless-aging journeys. From wellness and entrepreneurship to faith, farming, confidence, chronic illness, and culture - the range is powerful. You'll also hear from a few younger creators, because ageless aging isn't about age. It's about perspective. These conversations were recorded live at a bustling conference, so you may hear background noise, but the insight and authenticity are worth it.

In this Utah strain review, we sit down with Cap Junky from Dragonfly and do what we always do, slow it down, smell it, smoke it, question it, and talk honestly about how it actually feels.Cap Junky is a hybrid made from Alien Cookies and Kush Mints, and on paper it looks intense. High THC, loud genetics, and numbers that usually scare people off. What surprised us is how smooth and controlled the experience actually was.We talk about the dryness a lot of Utah flower picks up in winter, how packaging dates matter more than strain hype, and why climate plays a bigger role than most people realize. We also compare Dragonfly flower to Beehive's bud straight out of the bag and break down why “sticky” isn't the same thing as “good.”The high itself is mostly heady and light, not overpowering, no chest tightness, no racing heart, no panic. A big part of that comes down to terpenes like limonene and a noticeable amount of CBG, which helps mellow the ride and smooth out the edges of a higher THC strain.We also get into why THC percentage alone is a bad buying strategy, how terpene profiles tell you more about how a strain will feel, and why some high THC flower can feel calmer than lower percentage options.This episode is part strain review, part Utah cannabis reality check, and part reminder that intent matters more than numbers.Strain notesHybridHigh THC, smooth experienceHead-focused, light body feelNoticeable limonene and CBGCalm, controlled, and surprisingly chillIf you're in Utah and you've tried Cap Junky, or if you've had wildly different experiences with the same strain depending on brand or batch, let us know.

In this Mike on the Mic episode of The Better Leadership Team Show, I challenge the way most organizations think about employee engagement. Engagement isn't something you measure or delegate to HR—it's something leaders create every day through how they engage their people.I share six practical, immediately actionable ways leaders can increase engagement by changing their own behaviors—from accelerator sessions and stay interviews to purpose-driven conversations and career planning. If you're tired of surveys without results, this episode will change how you lead. Thanks for listening!

Most people have experienced some church hurt, sometimes to the point of losing faith in what the church even is or what it stands for. Some feel isolated and confused because church is supposed to be safe. What should we do when these things happen?In today's episode, Pastor Derek and Pastor Jackie talk through a listener question on how to respond when faith has been lost in the institutional church, or even just institutions in general. We talk through all of the God ordained institutions mentioned in Scripture, examples of corruption in those institutions throughout history, and what a person's responsibility and response should be in these kinds of hurtful situations. Our hope is that if you have church hurt and are listening, that you would find hope in the Word of God's instruction to rebuild trust in Jesus and follow His direction for the Church!The 17:17 podcast is a ministry of Roseville Baptist Church (MN) that seeks to tackle cultural issues and societal questions from a biblical worldview so that listeners discover what the Bible has to say about the key issues they face on a daily basis.

The group discussed the two Greenland movies, focusing on their prepper relevance. Jeff provided a synopsis of the first movie, which follows Gerard Butler's family as they try to reach a safety bunker in Greenland before a comet hits Earth. The group criticized the movie's lack of realism and reliance on coincidences, but agreed it had some prepper lessons, such as the importance of having a bug-out plan and considering potential obstacles. They also discussed the second movie, which takes place five years after the comet impact. Even though the sequel was more of a disaster flick, it still offered some prepper lessons. Wasn't this episode informative? You can watch both movies with enlightened eyes!

This one felt like catching up with an old friend you've never actually met in person.Kyle Trevor has been part of the Cannabis School orbit for a long time. Messaging us, asking questions, listening to episodes on repeat, and genuinely getting what this show is about. So having him on The Sesh felt less like an interview and more like finally pulling up a chair together.We talk about music, creativity, and what it looks like to grow alongside your art instead of trying to force it into something it's not. Kyle opens up about his relationship with cannabis, how it shifted over time, and how intention and dosing completely change the experience. Not chasing being “stoned,” just wanting to feel present, connected, and okay in his own head.There's a real conversation here about trauma, forced introspection, and how cannabis can sometimes bring things to the surface before you're ready. We don't dress it up. We talk about backing off when you need to, respecting the plant, and listening to your body instead of muscling through an experience because you think you're supposed to.We also get into the weirdness of wearing your identity out in public, merch, art, judgment, Utah culture, and those moments where strangers either glare at you or light up because they feel seen. That tension between expression and perception shows up everywhere, especially when you're making something honest.By the end, this episode lands in a really grounded place. Cannabis as a tool, not a crutch. Creativity as a long game. Growth as something that rarely looks clean while you're inside of it.If you've ever felt like cannabis helped you reconnect, then challenged you, then asked you to slow down and reassess, this one will hit home.Go check out Kyle's music, follow his journey, and sit with this conversation for a bit. It's a good one.Listen to Kyle TrevorFollow Kyle TrevorKeep the Mic on.Fuel the movement.

In this raw and real episode of Mindsent 2 Mic, Drew and Jimmy explore the transformative space between identities — that moment where your old self no longer fits, but your new self hasn't fully landed yet.They kick things off with reflections on fasting, food addiction, and how self-imposed challenges become spiritual mirrors… then dive deep into subconscious programming, ego detachment, and what it takes to embody a different reality.Drawing inspiration from Bashar's formula — “Follow your excitement, to the best of your ability, with zero expectation” — this episode unpacks how to navigate the “void,” where true transformation begins.
There was a time when conferences felt a little bit magical. You'd show up, coffee in hand, and before the first session even started, you'd be deep in a hallway conversation that changed how you thought about your work. Those little moments, sitting on the floor near an outlet, laughing over lunch, that's where the real magic happened. But somewhere along the way, that magic started to fade. Big events got flashier. More sponsors, more VIP packages, and a lot more “networking opportunities” that felt like thinly disguised sales pitches. It stopped being about connection and started being about clout. I found myself missing the kind of conversations that left me inspired instead of exhausted. So, with a few fellow podcasters, Lisa Mitchel and Jenn Edds, we started dreaming about something smaller, more human. A gathering for women behind the mic who aren't chasing followers but chasing meaning. That's how Beyond the Mic was born. Not a conference, but a conversation. A cozy afternoon in Indianapolis this March, no panels, no presentations, just 10 or 15 women sharing stories, scars, and the lessons they've learned along the way. We'll talk about the messy parts of podcasting, burnout, creativity, community, and how we can keep making something meaningful, one episode at a time. So if that sounds like your kind of magic, come join the conversation at talkbeyondthemike.com. Because maybe the best conference isn't in the ballroom, it's in the hallway, over coffee, between two people who get it. Join me for Beyond The Mic in Indianapolis on March 26 - https://talkbeyondthemic.com
In this episode of Two Pastors and a Mic, we keep walking out what we're calling the 2:6 Life - Anyone who claims to live in Him must live as Jesus did” (1 John 2:6). And today we go straight into a tension a lot of us feel after deconstruction, church hurt, or betrayal:How do you protect your heart…without closing it off completely?Because for many of us, cynicism starts to feel like wisdom. It promises we won't be surprised again, disappointed again, or fooled again. But over time, cynicism doesn't just guard the wound—it can quietly starve the heart: connection, wonder, curiosity, hope.So we talk about the difference between:Discernment vs. distancingWise boundaries vs. emotional retreatSelf-protection vs. staying tenderAnd we get super practical with real-life examples—how cynicism shows up in relationships, leadership, church spaces, and even the way we interpret “good” stories. We also give a few ways to stay tender without being naive—because tenderness isn't fragility… it's availability (with boundaries).If you've ever felt yourself growing colder, pulling back, or assuming the worst just to stay safe… this one's for you.00:00 - Welcome to Two Pastors and a Mic (Episode 264)00:46 - The 2:6 Life Theme: Living Like Jesus (1 John 2:6)01:33 - Quick Recap: Deconstruction + Feeling Stuck02:09 - Today's Topic: Protect Your Heart Without Closing It03:10 - Cynicism vs Tenderness: The Heart Posture Tension04:37 - Why Cynicism Creeps In After Church Hurt05:50 - Discernment or Cynicism?

In this episode of Talk Dizzy To Me, vestibular physical therapists Dr. Abbie Ross, PT, NCS and Dr. Carly Lochala, PT, NCS sit down with Dr. Julie Hershberg, PT, NCS to explain what FND is, why it's been minimized in healthcare, and how it overlaps with dizziness, migraine, dysautonomia/POTS, hypermobility/EDS, and vestibular disorders.They break down brain networks like the default mode network and salience network, discuss common clinical clues (variability, attention-related shifts), and explain how treatment often starts with nervous system regulation, trust-building, and whole-person care—not just exercises.If you've been told your symptoms are “all in your head,” this episode is for you.Guest: Dr. Julie Hershberg / Reactive PT Instagram: @reactiveptResources: FND resources hub, reactivept.com/FNDresourcesHosted by:
By 2025, the business podcast Acquired was getting one million listeners per episode, having doubled the audience year over since Ben Gilbert and David Rosenthal started it in 2015. And they'd grown without a strict release schedule or relentless optimization. Still, they felt pressure to scale—without throwing off their work-life balance. How did they determine a way forward? They join Harvard Business School Professor Shane Greenstein and host Brian Kenny to discuss the case “The Acquired Podcast: Scaling the Mic.”
Halle Berry from Betty Wellness is one of those strains that doesn't kick the door in right away. It takes its time, then quietly settles in and makes you realize you're smiling, relaxed, and way more comfortable than you expected.First thing you notice is the look. These nugs are straight purple. Not hints of purple. Not accents. Just deep, rich purple all the way through. One of the most visually striking Utah flowers we've seen, easily in the same conversation as Tropicana Cherries, but darker and more uniform.The flower leaned a little dry, likely storage or packaging related, but even with that, the smoke was surprisingly smooth. No harsh bite, no instant throat grab. Across a few different pieces, it stayed easy and clean.Terpene wise, this one is led by limonene, followed by linalool, beta-caryophyllene, myrcene, and humulene. Translation, this is not a panic strain. The experience came on slow and even, with light facial tingles, a relaxed jaw, and a very clear headspace.Genetically, Halle Berry is bred from Ice Cream Cake × Blockberry. You'll sometimes hear Blockberry casually called Blackberry, but the official Utah listing for Betty's cut specifies Blockberry. The genetics show up more in the overall vibe than in-your-face flavor.Flavor stays subtle. Slightly peppery, a little earthy, nothing loud or perfumey. This is not a strain that tries to impress your nose, it wins on how it feels.THC sits around 18 percent, which matters here. This strain doesn't rely on brute force. It's balanced, approachable, and forgiving. No racing heart. No anxiety spike. No couch lock either.As the session went on, it turned into a sneaky euphoric creeper. Floaty head, relaxed body, calm arms, and a general “everything's fine” feeling. There was even mild pain relief without the heaviness that usually comes with that territory.This is a strain we'd confidently hand to someone newer, someone sensitive, or someone who just wants to feel good without getting wrecked. It's also a solid anytime option if you want to stay functional but noticeably happier.Big win for Betty Wellness here. This ended up being our favorite Betty strain so far, not because it was loud, but because it was thoughtful.If you're looking for a happy, relaxed, clear-headed hybrid that doesn't demand attention but earns it anyway, Halle Berry is worth your time.Keep the Mic on.Fuel the movement. Keep the conversation going.We keep a running list of tools and brands we personally enjoy and actually use.Find everything in one place here:
