In this episode of Blocks, Neal Brennan sits down with comedian Gianmarco Soresi to discuss the unconventional path that led him to standup. They dive into his childhood experiences with divorce, his short-lived dreams of becoming a professional singer and actor, and the deep-seated desire for "glory" that keeps him on stage. Gianmarco also opens up about his relationship with his parents, his thoughts on depression and Adderall, and how he's learning to find balance between his workaholic nature and his personal life. ---------------------------------------------------------- 00:00 - Intro 01:03 - Comedic Wardrobe & Authenticity 03:05 - Rebelling Against His Father 04:59 - His Parents' Divorce 06:11 - Understanding the Nature of Cheating 09:03 - The "Fake" Wedding Priest 10:44 - Choosing Transparency Over Chaos 11:59 - Trying Drugs in His 30s 12:51 - The Acid Trip Epiphany 14:00 - Sponsor: Ultra Focus Pouches 15:58 - The Impact of a Restless Childhood 18:27 - Living with a Stepdad "Antagonist" 20:13 - The Prince of the Weekend 23:31 - Disrupting the Family Narrative 26:10 - The Fallout of a Family Legal Battle 29:24 - Losing the Spotlight at Home 31:32 - Sponsor: Square 34:17 - Sponsor: Quince 36:48 - From Theater Kid to Unathletic Adult 38:47 - The Desire to be Witnessed 39:19 - Using Adderall to Feel "Alive" 41:35 - Fighting the "Lead Vest" of Depression 44:31 - Finding Happiness Outside of Achievement 46:21 - On Theater and Heterosexuality 48:11 - The Pursuit of Glory 51:24 - The Brutal Reality for Dancers 54:11 - Bob Fosse and the Addiction to Showbiz 55:56 - Sponsor: Perplexity 59:30 - Sponsor: CookUnity 1:02:46 - The Workaholic Gene 1:04:06 - Developing New Show Concepts 1:05:08 - How Gianmarco Wants to Die 1:06:16 - The Struggle of Obsessive Practice 1:08:40 - When Music Overwhelms the Mind 1:09:32 - The Cost of Broadway and Theater Culture 1:12:09 - Failing into Standup 1:15:50 - Faking Intellect vs. Perspective 1:18:55 - Watching Art Without Self-Loathing 1:21:27 - Final Thoughts ---------------------------------------------------------- Follow Neal Brennan: https://www.instagram.com/nealbrennan https://twitter.com/nealbrennan https://www.tiktok.com/@mrnealbrennan Watch Neal Brennan: Crazy Good on Netflix: https://www.netflix.com/title/81728557 Watch Neal Brennan: Blocks on Netflix: https://www.netflix.com/title/81036234 Theme music by Electric Guest (unreleased).

AI Can Accelerate Your Strategy—But It Cannot Choose Your Direction Before You Implement AI, Align the Experience Companies are moving quickly to implement artificial intelligence, automation and new digital tools. But speed without alignment can create a more efficient version of the wrong customer experience. Before an organization decides what AI should do, its leaders and employees must agree on the experience they are trying to create. A Customer Experience Action Statement, or CXAS, provides that direction. It translates an organization's broad mission, purpose and values into a clear standard employees can intentionally deliver during every customer interaction. In a newly recorded opening to this encore episode, Denise Thompson explains why the topic is especially important now: Before companies implement AI, their employees, departments and leaders must be aligned around the experience the technology is supposed to help deliver. Then, in the original conversation, Denise and customer service authority John DiJulius explain how to create a Customer Experience Action Statement, the three pillars that support it and the systems required to keep it alive long after the launch. What Is a Customer Experience Action Statement? A Customer Experience Action Statement defines what every employee should intentionally achieve whenever they interact with a customer, client, patient, guest or colleague. Unlike a mission statement, it must be actionable, observable and relevant during even the smallest interaction. John explains why a CXAS is not another slogan for the breakroom wall. It is the behavioral North Star that helps employees make consistent decisions, creates organizational alignment and turns a desired customer experience into something leaders can teach, coach and reinforce. The Three Pillars of a Strong CXAS Every effective Customer Experience Action Statement is supported by three memorable pillars: 1. Expertise Employees must be brilliant at the basics. They should have the knowledge, consistency and operational excellence required to help the customer confidently. 2. Human Interaction Customers want to feel seen, heard and cared about—not processed as the next transaction. This pillar defines how employees should intentionally make people feel. 3. Above and Beyond When an opportunity presents itself, employees should be empowered to own the experience, solve a problem or create a memorable moment. John shares examples from The DiJulius Group, KeyBank, Starbucks, Superior Glove, Domino's and John Roberts Spa to demonstrate how organizations turn these pillars into clear, repeatable behaviors. Why a CXAS Must Come Before AI AI can accelerate decisions, communications and service delivery, but it cannot decide what your brand should stand for. Without a shared Customer Experience Action Statement, departments may automate different priorities and customers may receive a faster—but increasingly inconsistent—experience. A CXAS gives leaders a standard against which every AI use case can be evaluated: Does this technology help us deliver the experience we have promised, or does it merely make an internal process more efficient? Creating a Statement Is Only the Beginning The episode also explores why successful customer experience strategies require more than a launch. Organizations must certify employees, measure execution, recognize examples, refresh the language through microlearning and keep the CXAS visible long after the initial excitement disappears. As John explains, world-class customer experience is not a ribbon-cutting ceremony. The statement becomes transformational only when it remains top of mind and influences daily behavior. Work Directly With John DiJulius and Dave Murray on September 14 On September 14 from noon to 2:00 p.m. Eastern, John DiJulius and Dave Murray will lead a live, interactive Experience Revolution Membership session focused on creating and implementing a Customer Experience Action Statement that is actionable, observable and capable of driving consistent results. Participants will have the opportunity to work directly with John and Dave to develop or strengthen their organization's CXAS. Register or join the Experience Revolution Membership: https://thedijuliusgroup.com/membership/ Key Takeaways AI will accelerate whatever direction an organization is already heading, including the wrong one. A Customer Experience Action Statement should guide how every employee approaches every interaction. A CXAS must be actionable, observable, memorable and relevant to daily work. Mission statements and purpose statements are important, but they do not tell frontline employees exactly how to behave. A strong CXAS is supported by three pillars: expertise, human interaction and above-and-beyond service. Operational excellence and human connection must happen consistently; above-and-beyond moments happen when the opportunity presents itself. Three pillars are easier for employees to remember, apply and reinforce. A CXAS should guide employees internally rather than operate as an external advertising slogan. Launching the CXAS is the easy part; certification, accountability, measurement and reinforcement make it sustainable. Every proposed AI application should be evaluated against the experience the organization has committed to delivering. Quotes From the Episode "The Customer Experience Action Statement is what each and every employee should intentionally be doing every time they interact with someone else." —John DiJulius "This changes the culture. This is transformational." —John DiJulius "The only thing my employees better know verbatim is the Customer Experience Action Statement." —John DiJulius "I want someone that makes me feel like a human being—not next, not a transaction. I feel seen and heard." —John DiJulius "The first two have to happen every time: Be brilliant at the basics, and make me feel like a human being." —John DiJulius "There's magic in three." —John DiJulius "Achieving world-class status is not a ribbon-cutting ceremony." —John DiJulius "The Customer Experience Action Statement and pillars are a game changer.

What if love, resonance, and political courage were not separate conversations, but facets of the same underlying reality?In this new episode of The Rose Woman Podcast, Christine welcomes back philosopher, environmental lawyer, and homesteader Tamlyn (Tam) M. Hunt to explore how consciousness, AI, renewable energy, and tropical panpsychism all meet in a single resonance-based view of the world. From Hawaii's ʻāina to the AI tsunami, from back-to-the-land experiments to a “resonance model of politics,” they trace how a deeper understanding of consciousness might change the way we do policy, leadership, and love itself.Tamlyn M. Hunt applies a unique blend of expertise in different but related fields to lead discussions on big picture trends. Tamlyn's decades of work as an environmental lawyer focused on renewable energy law and policy have given him tools to frame the necessary conversations on how we can make wise changes.Coupled with his academic work in philosophy, spirituality, and cognitive science, Tamlyn explores how we can use a deeper understanding of consciousness to relate to ourselves and our world in a more beneficial way.Through his work as a writer, scholar, and speaker, Tamlyn seeks to bridge connections across the gap between science and spirit. He is co-developer of the General Resonance Theory of consciousness, with Prof. Jonathan Schooler, and has published a number of peer-reviewed articles fleshing out the details of this rigorous approach to the study of consciousness.Tamlyn is also a novelist, working on his second novel, Leilani, set on the Big Island of Hawaii where he has lived since 2016.Listen in as Christine and Tam follow the thread from “it's all vibrations, man” to the AI reckoning, resilience politics, and ontological loveand invite you to feel how “the many become one and are increased by one” in your own life.(00:00:00): Introduction and Chapter Five of The Hippies Were Right (00:04:59): Overview Of General Resonance Theory and How “Everything Vibrates” Becomes A Theory Of Consciousness(00:08:39): Tam's Run For Hawaii State House and The Authenticity Tension In Modern Politics(00:13:06): Tam Explores Identity and Cultural Dynamics In Hawaii Politics (00:14:31): Tropical Panpsychism(00:16:02): Tam Examines The Inherent Salesmanship And Authenticity Tension In Politics (00:19:12): Framing The “Resilience Candidate” and The Polycrisis Of AI, Climate, And Governance(00:21:53): Tam Connects Social Movements, Virality, and Resonance In Politics (00:25:02): Origin Of The Hippies Were Right as a Memoir Plus Consciousness Philosophy(00:27:05): General Resonance Theory and The Changing Academic View Of Consciousness (00:31:13): Core Claims Of GRT: Universal Vibration, Tiny Units Of Awareness, and “The Many Become One”(00:35:49): Love As Ontological Reality and Entheogenic Experience(00:38:48): Indigenous Knowing and Green Ethics Of Reverence (00:42:35): Love For ʻĀina, Climate Law, And The Urgency Of Energy Transition (00:44:25): AI's Exploding Energy Demand Versus Its Huge Practical Upsides For Work and Creativity(00:53:03): Honoring Feminine Labor, Back-To-The-Land Women, and The Unseen Work That Sustains Movements(00:55:45): The Real Work Of Homesteading and The Need For Community-Scale, Shared-Resource Living(00:59:23): Three Core Takeaways: It's All Love, It's All Consciousness, and We Need System-Level Change NowHelpful links:Tam Hunt - Author of The Hippies Were Right!: About Consciousness and Everything Else available now on AmazonThe Hippies Were Right: It's All about Vibrations, Man!

What if understanding yourself better could actually make you better at business?In this solo episode of The End in Mind, I'm exploring the connection between personal identity, entrepreneurship, and the brands we build.I first became fascinated by identity in college, when a communications professor taught me something I've carried with me ever since: we all hold multiple identities, and throughout our lives, we will outgrow, redefine, and rediscover many of them.As entrepreneurs, it can be incredibly easy to let “business owner” become our entire identity. I did that throughout much of my twenties — and it contributed to burnout, overworking, and losing connection with parts of myself that had nothing to do with Meraki.Now, at 30, I'm beginning to see how those other pieces of my identity actually make me better at what I do.I share how my childhood love of nature unexpectedly connected to my current work as a Fractional CMO for a landscape and design company, and why genuine curiosity and personal connection can make such a difference in the work we create.Your brand may be an expression of your identity, but it is never the entirety of who you are.Connect with me:- Instagram: @meraki_media_management- Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/GetSocialwithMeraki- YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@meraki_media_management- TikTok: @meraki_media_management- Website: https://www.merakimediamanagement.com/Question for you: What part of your childhood identity or interests do you still see showing up in your life or business today?

Hey Doc,This episode is a plea.Please take care of yourself.There has been a lot of loss in the physician community lately, and it has made me take a harder look at the care I'm giving myself too.Because I can preach about putting yourself first all day long, but meanwhile my Peloton has basically become furniture and my eating habits have been…questionable.
In this episode of Mind of Mansion, Matt is joined by Sharp Football expert Rich Hribar (@LordReebs) discuss early-season injuries and suspensions truly worse than usual, or does recency bias skew our draft prep? We break down the macro trends over the last decade before diving into the biggest positional dilemmas, ADP values, and breakout candidates across fantasy football drafts. From elite upside cases like Jahmyr Gibbs to murky backfields featuring Josh Jacobs and Jeremiyah Love, we evaluate risk tolerance, draft architecture (Robust RB vs. Zero RB), and how to value talented backs on questionable offenses like Ashton Jeanty and De'Von Achane. Plus, we explore sleeper wide receivers, target vacancies in Miami and New York, and deliver our favorite late-round tight ends. In this episode, we cover: Injury & Suspension Trends: Historical context on whether attrition is genuinely higher compared to the last 10 years.

Few voices are as instantly recognisable as Colin Blunstone's. As the lead singer of The Zombies, he helped define the sound of the British Invasion with timeless classics including She's Not There, Tell Her No, Time of the Season and the landmark album Odessey and Oracle. More than six decades later, Colin continues to tour the world, record new music and perform with the same unmistakable voice that first captivated audiences in the 1960s.In this episode of A Breath of Fresh Air, Colin shares the extraordinary story behind one of rock's most influential bands. He explains how The Zombies came together through little more than chance, why Rod Argent almost remained the band's lead singer, and how She's Not There became a worldwide hit despite a chaotic recording session. Colin reflects on the realities of life during the British Invasion, revealing why hit records didn't necessarily mean financial success and how the original band ultimately dissolved while still enjoying international acclaim.The conversation also explores Colin's remarkable solo career, including his brief period recording as Neil MacArthur, the success of Say You Don't Mind, his years with Elton John's Rocket Records, working alongside Alan Parsons and Dave Stewart, and the unexpected legal battle that temporarily stalled his career. Colin opens up about returning to live performance after more than twenty years away, the reunion with Rod Argent that led to the rebirth of The Zombies, and the band's emotional induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.Along the way, Colin discusses maintaining his voice into his eighties, the discipline required to continue performing at the highest level, overcoming self-doubt despite decades of success, and why he still believes nobody in the music industry truly knows what tomorrow will bring.If you love classic rock, the British Invasion, timeless songwriting and honest conversations with legendary artists, this episode offers a rare opportunity to hear the remarkable story behind one of music's most distinctive voices.And ... if you're in any of these cities make sure you go see The Zombies live!Sep 2 Somerville TheatreSomerville (Boston), MA The Fixx, Colin Blunstone, and Peter AsherSep 4 Count Basie Center for the ArtsRed Bank, NJSep 5The ParamountHuntington (Long Island), NYSep 6 United TheatreWesterly, RISep 8 Tupelo Music Hall Derry, NHTSep 10 Adler Hall New York Society for Ethical Culture New YorkSep 11 Keswick Theatre Glenside (Philadelphia), PASep 12 Warner TheatreWashington, DCSep 13 he Kent StageKent, OHSep 15 Uptown TheaterMinneapolis, MNSep 17 Genesee Theatre Waukegan (Chicago), ILSep 18 The Ludlow GarageCincinnati, OHSep 19 Barrymore Theatre Madison, WISep 21 DeVos Performance HallGrand Rapids, MISep 23 Brown County Music Center NashvilleSep 26 College Street Music Hall New Haven, CTSep 27 Santander Performing Arts Center Reading, PASep 29 RIT Performing Arts CenterRochester, NYTSep 30 Troy Savings Bank Music HallTroy, NY
TEACHBACK TUESDAY: AN INTERVIEW WITH AUTHOR KATHY ASHLEY When Kathy Ashley heart about "AI," those letters brought two different words to her mind. Not "artificial intelligence," but Arrogance and Ignorance. This is the kind of AI that leads to an artificial inflation of self, and it's hazardous to our spiritual health. Arrogance is pride on steroids. When you mix arrogance with ignorance, this creates a puffed up conceit that is deceptive. We can become our own worst enemies when we're infected with the dynamic duo of arrogance and ignorance. The antidote to this infection is God's Word. He has the prescription for healing and recovery. "The fear of the LORD is to hate evil: pride, and arrogancy, and the evil way, and the froward mouth, do I hate."

This conversation explores nutritional cognitive neuroscience, an interdisciplinary field examining the bidirectional relationships among nutrition, cognition, brain health, and eating behavior. The discussion covers how dietary influences operate across biological, psychological, environmental, and sociocultural levels, including neuroplasticity, inflammation, reward processes, genetics, and access to healthy foods. It reviews emerging research on nutrient profiles, the gut–brain axis, and dietary patterns such as the Mediterranean, DASH, and MIND diets, while emphasizing that evidence for isolated supplements or "brain foods" is often limited or overstated. The conversation also highlights substantial individual variability in nutritional needs. For neuropsychologists, the central takeaway is to address nutrition as one component of broader brain health, provide measured and realistic guidance, and collaborate with qualified nutrition professionals when individualized recommendations are needed.

Bernardo Kastrup, PhD, is a computer scientist, who has recently completed a second doctoral degree in philosophy. He is author of Rationalist Spirituality, Why Materialism is Baloney, Dreamed Up Reality, Meaning in Absurdity, Brief Peeks Beyond, More Than Allegory, The Idea of the World, and Decoding Schopenhauer's Metaphysics. His latest book is Decoding Jung's Metaphysics: The Archetypal Semantics of an Experiential Universe. He has published several papers on Scientific American's website arguing for metaphysical idealism. His website is https://www.bernardokastrup.com/. In this interview, rebooted from 2021, he addresses a series of questions related to the possibilities for different versions of postmortem survival (i.e., reincarnation, possession, mediumistic communication, etc.) in the light of metaphysical idealism. He notes that, in all cases, he expects that the mental contents of personal consciousness will remain as part of an impersonal universal mind – i.e., the one mind that sees through the eyes of all creatures. With regard to the findings of psychical research and spiritualism, his attitude – while open-minded – was one of uncertainty and doubt concerning the quality of the purported evidence. New Thinking Allowed host, Jeffrey Mishlove, PhD, is author of The Roots of Consciousness, Psi Development Systems, and The PK Man. Between 1986 and 2002 he hosted and co-produced the original Thinking Allowed public television series. He is the recipient of the only doctoral diploma in "parapsychology" ever awarded by an accredited university (University of California, Berkeley, 1980). He is also the Grand Prize winner of the 2021 Bigelow Institute essay competition regarding the best evidence for survival of human consciousness after permanent bodily death. He is Co-Director of Parapsychology Education at the California Institute for Human Science.

Matt Maples, Leadership Coach, Veteran Advocate, and Texas Director for USA Cares, joins us for a special conversation to explore what it truly means to move beyond simply saying, “Thank you for your service,” and the impact of turning gratitude into meaningful action. USA Cares is a national nonprofit dedicated to helping post-9/11 veterans, service members, and their families through emergency financial assistance and post-service skills training. Highlights include: Matt's powerful journey from ministry to a different kind of calling—serving those who served our country. The urgent challenges many veterans face, including difficult transitions to civilian life, financial crises, PTSD, and the heartbreaking reality of veteran suicide. Timely assistance can provide something invaluable: time, peace of mind, and a roadmap for what comes next. What companies can do to support our veterans. This important conversation also highlights the extraordinary leadership, resilience, discipline, and purpose veterans bring to their communities and the civilian workforce—and challenges individuals and business leaders alike to ask a critical question: What can we do today? Because "freedom is not free," and meaningful gratitude requires more than words. They leapt into action for us. Now, it is our turn to do the same. How You Can Help If this conversation inspires you to move beyond saying “thank you” and take meaningful action, learn more about USA Cares and discover ways to support veterans, service members, and their families.

Chronic back pain that no scan explains? Dimple Jangda sits down with Prof. Dr. Ali Irani — the first sports physiotherapist in the Indian subcontinent and physiotherapist to the Indian cricket team from 1987 to 1997 — to unpack why pain persists, why vitamin deficiencies are so widely missed, and what actually supports a long, mobile life.In this episode, Dimple shares her own diagnosis publicly for the first time: eight episodes of being bedridden with sciatica-like pain, MRIs, X-rays and blood tests that explained nothing — until one question from Dr. Irani led to an HLA-B27 diagnosis and ankylosing spondylitis.WHAT YOU'LL LEARN▪ The one question that changes a pain diagnosis: if pain is worst in the evening it's usually mechanical; if it's worst on waking and eases as you move, it points to something pathological.▪ Why vitamin D and B12 deficiency is so common — Dr. Irani estimates over half of Indians are deficient — and why sunlight alone isn't enough. In a study of eight Mumbai football teams training 3–4 hours daily in the sun, almost all players were still deficient.▪ The missing mineral: without enough magnesium, your body can't hold on to vitamin D3 and B12. Pumpkin seeds and roasted chana are traditional sources.▪ Why standard blood panels don't include D3 and B12 — you have to ask for them.▪ Swimming for spinal conditions, why extension exercises undo a day spent bending forward, and the posture problem behind widespread neck pain.▪ Brain mapping and the five states of mind — delta, theta, alpha, beta, gamma. Athletes recalling their best games measured in alpha; those recalling their worst measured in beta or gamma. Why chanting Om and echo sounds shift you into alpha.▪ Lung capacity and lifespan: why breathing rate correlates with longevity across species, and what pranayama does to vital capacity.▪ Grounding and earthing — why two-pin phone chargers have no earth, and what that means for your nervous system.▪ Flat feet, foot arches and why insoles change posture, knees and spine.▪ Colon health and medication absorption — why cleaning the gut can matter more than increasing a dose.▪ Ice versus heat, cold plunges, pelvic floor health, Indian versus Western toilets and hip replacement rates.▪ Dr. Irani's 40-day no-gossip challenge, and why he believes your relationship with your parents predicts your success.ABOUT DR. ALI IRANIHead of Department, Physiotherapy and Sports Medicine & Rehabilitation Centre, Nanavati Max Super Speciality Hospital, Mumbai. Physiotherapist to the Indian cricket team 1987–1997. Two PhDs, in Sports Medicine and in Anatomy of Body Movement and Dance.

Send Rachel a text message.Feeling burned out by healing, self-improvement, or spiritual growth? You may be trying too hard.In this episode of Self Talk, Rachel Astarte explores inner work burnout and the exhaustion that can arise when personal growth becomes another project to manage, master, or perfect. Sometimes the underdeveloped ego that once resisted our growth simply turns healing into another form of striving.Rachel offers a gentler path through the Foundation of Self, exploring why lasting transformation is ultimately experiential rather than intellectual and how awareness, nonjudgment, and gentleness can help us release unnecessary effort. Drawing on the self-inquiry of Sri Ramana Maharshi, listeners are invited to ask, “Who is having this thought?” and shift attention from the mind's activity to Awareness itself.This episode also introduces Rachel's “Magic Therapy Question”—How do I want to feel in this situation?—as a practical tool for recognizing misalignment and reconnecting with the wisdom of the Highest Self.If your inner work feels overwhelming, exhausting, or heavy, this conversation offers a simple reminder: You do not have to earn what you already are. Rest, listen inward, and remember that you are a unique expression of Pure Consciousness—an eternal Self living a fully human life.Listen to discover how to stop striving to become awakened and begin living awake.EPISODE TIMELINE0:00 – Opening Quote & Theme SetupJean Klein on “living stillness” and undoing conditioning; introduction to the episode and the Living Your Foundation of Self series.0:55 – Defining Inner Work BurnoutDescription of burnout as exhaustion from long-term inner work practices and the hidden expectation of “being further along” by now.2:05 – You Are Already Whole (Pure Consciousness)Re-centering on the core teaching: you are already whole, pure consciousness; inner work is about removing what you are not, not becoming “better.”3:05 – What Is Inner Work, Really?Revisit of the foundational definition: inner work as turning inward with awareness, curiosity, non-judgment, and gentleness rather than a self-improvement project.4:00 – The Mind as Tool vs. ObstacleThe mind's need for repetition and effort–reward loops; why this clashes with the non-linear, mysterious nature of genuine inner work.5:00 – How the Ego Co-opts Inner WorkThe underdeveloped ego's fear of obliteration; turning inner work into a “project” with goals and milestones, setting you up for burnout.6:07 – Expectation, Measurement, and FailureThe ego's “measuring stick”: Have I done enough? Found the right teacher? Become ‘better' yet? Why this project must fail from the ego's perspective.7:10 – The Real Source of ExhaustionClarifying that what drains you is not introspection itself, but striving to become a better, future self instead of accepting who you are now.8:05 – Stop Trying: From Mind-Work to Soul-ExperienceInvitation to pause effort, step out of “doing inner work,” and shift from intellectual understanding to direct, experiential being.8:55 – Self-Inquiry Practice (Ramana Maharshi)Guided explanation of asking “Who is having this thought?” and “Who am I?” to move attention from thoughts to pure awareness or “neutral space.”9:55 – The Magic Therapy QuestionIntroduction of “How do I want to feel in this situation?” with real-life examples (partner, boss, parents) and reclaiming emotional choice.10:45 – Meeting Your Inner Guru (Sadguru)Framing the highest Self / inner Guru as innate wisdom that sees beyond fear and conditioning; how all this work returns you to your foundation of Self.11:29 – Returning to the Three PillarsClear recap of the three pillars: awareness, non-judgment, gentleness—and how to use them when you feel burned out or “off track.”12:10 – Applying the Tools in the MomentCombining self-inquiry with the magic question (“How do I want to feel right now?”) to rest in neutrality and non-identification with thoughts.13:00 – You Are Already That PersonReleasing the fantasy of a more spiritual future self; recognizing you are already the healed, spiritual being you're trying to become.13:40 – Final Reminder: Ambassador of SourceClosing reflection: you are a unique iteration of pure consciousness here to experience human life in all its complexity, beauty, difficulty, and wonder; gentle sign-off.Got a question about your self?

What happens when life changes so dramatically that “getting back to normal” is no longer the goal?In this episode of The Many Faces of Cancer, Melissa sits down with healthcare professional, entrepreneur, advocate, speaker and cancer survivor Sarita Parikh, whose life changed dramatically after a devastating accident left her with a traumatic brain injury—only to be followed months later by a breast cancer diagnosis.Sarita shares the extraordinary story of navigating brain injury rehabilitation and cancer at the same time, including the cognitive and physical challenges that made even routine appointments difficult. She also talks about the unexpected way cancer forced her to confront something she hadn't yet had the capacity to process: just how much her life had changed.Their conversation moves beyond diagnosis and treatment into the much bigger question of what recovery is actually for.Sarita shares the philosophy behind her evolving work with Mind, Body, and Play Therapies and her concept of “life-first care”—an approach that asks not simply how we help someone recover, but how we help them build the capacity to participate in a meaningful life.Melissa and Sarita also explore the importance of play, joy, awe, rest and connection—and why making room for those things doesn't mean ignoring the grief, anger and loss that can accompany cancer and trauma.Sarita also shares how attending Epic Experience camp finally allowed her to recognize that she wasn't an “imposter” in the cancer community and begin processing her diagnosis. Even more unexpectedly, the experience of play, nature and connection seemed to help her rediscover something she had struggled to do since her brain injury: simply take a deep breath.This is a conversation about accepting that life may never look exactly as it once did—and discovering that a different life can still be meaningful, joyful and very much worth living.In this episode:Surviving a traumatic brain injury and cancer in the same yearNavigating cancer treatment with significant cognitive limitationsThe grief of losing the life you expectedWhy recovery shouldn't only be about “getting better”Sarita's concept of life-first careBuilding capacity while also honoring the need for restWhy adults need play just as much as children doMaking room for grief, rage, joy and awe at the same timeFeeling like an imposter in the cancer communityThe unexpected impact of Epic ExperienceFinding your people—and allowing others to help carry the loadSarita's message: Feel it all.

Daily Boost Podcast Ambition vs Peace of Mind August 31, 2026 | Episode 5531 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description You set the goal. You hit the goal. And then you stand there, wondering why it doesn't feel the way you thought it would. I've watched that happen hundreds of times, and I finally figured out what's missing. It isn't ambition. It's the ground you're standing on when you launch. Today I'm walking you through what I call a peaceful base — the six areas that have to be solid before anything big you build will hold. Time. Body. Mind. Money. Relationships. Meaning. Go big. Just don't launch off a hot mess. Let's get your foundation right. Featured Story I brought this whole idea up with my wife over breakfast, and she asked me to explain it in a way she could actually feel. So I pointed at her laptop. Every single morning, before she eats, she flips it open and balances our books. House and business, both. She looks at the numbers, sees that we're fine, closes the laptop, and her whole day settles. I would never do that. It would drive me crazy. I don't touch it. But watching her that morning, something clicked for me. That laptop isn't bookkeeping. That's her ground. That's the thing she stands on before she does anything else. And most people don't have one. Important Points Your schedule serves you, or it serves everyone else. Control your time first, because it controls everything after. A peaceful base isn't a retirement plan. It's the active ground you build on so your big goals actually hold up. Six areas hold you up: time, body, mind, money, relationships, and meaning. Weak in one and the whole thing wobbles. Memorable Quotes We set the goal, we reach the goal, we accomplish the goal, and yet we don't get what we really, really wanted. You can't have a cool life on a hot mess. If you want to launch something big, you better have a solid foundation. If you don't control your time, you control nothing. And you can control your time. I know it's hard. Scott's Three-Step Approach Pick the one area of your base that feels shakiest right now — time, body, mind, money, relationships, or meaning. Fix that one with a small daily habit you'll actually stick to, like my wife balancing the books every single morning. Only then launch your big goal from that solid ground, and keep the base strong while you chase whatever you want. Chapters 0:14 - Why reaching the goal still leaves you empty 2:23 - The day I realized I only wanted peace of mind 2:46 - What a peaceful base is and why it holds you up 4:23 - Rocket launch pads and the size of your dreams 5:22 - My wife's ritual and taking back your time 9:35 - Money, relationships, and what anchors it all 11:53 - Start small today and let it compound for decades Connect With Me Search for the Daily Boost on YouTube, Apple Podcasts, and Spotify Email: support@motivationtomove.com Main Website: https://motivationtomove.com YouTube: https://youtube.com/dailyboostpodcast Instagram: https://instagram.com/heyscottsmith Facebook Page: https://facebook.com/motivationtomove Facebook Group: https://dailyboostpodcast.com/facebook Learn more about your ad choices.

This and all episodes at: https://aiandyou.net/ . We are back on the consciousness train again, trying to understand what that thing is. Most of us would cop to being conscious, but how many of us have any idea how to describe it, let alone test for it? Here to help with that is Joscha Bach, cognitive scientist, AI researcher, and philosopher who uses the lens of artificial intelligence to understand the human mind. He has taught and researched at Humboldt University of Berlin, the Institute for Cognitive Science in Osnabrück, the Berlin School of Mind and Brain, MIT Media Lab and the Harvard Program for Evolutionary Dynamics. He's the creator of the MicroPsi cognitive architecture and the author of Principles of Synthetic Intelligence. At Intel Labs, he led a team for cognitive AI. He is currently the executive director of the California Institute for Machine Consciousness where he draws on computer science, neuroscience, psychology, and philosophy to ask how minds construct reality, how consciousness might emerge from computation, and what AI can teach us about ourselves. We talk about the Institute's mission, the machine consciousness hypothesis, why we actually are in a particular kind of simulation, dreaming, the role of perceptions and predictions, and a fascinating take on the Chinese Room. All this plus our usual look at today's AI headlines! Transcript and URLs referenced at HumanCusp Blog.

In this opening session (Part 1) of the Varela Contemplative Science Retreat, Roshi Joan Halifax welcomes practitioners on-site and online, tracing the retreat's roots to her decades-long friendship with the late neuroscientist and Buddhist practitioner Francisco Varela and how their conversations from 1981 ultimately seeded what became the Mind and Life Institute. Roshi reminds the room that this… Source
Vision Finds Its StructureThe eclipse portal has closed. Integration is underway. This week is quieter in its archetypal signature, fewer major contacts, more spacious rhythm. Exactly what eclipse integration requires.But quieter does not mean insignificant. Monday opens with Jupiter trining Saturn, the cycle named on the horizon last week. And Tuesday brings Mars in Cancer into an honest reckoning with Saturn. After that the week opens into genuine spaciousness.Key Cycles This Week:Monday, August 31: Jupiter in Leo trines Saturn in Aries. To understand what this trine carries, the larger context matters.Jupiter and Saturn are the social planets — describing how transpersonal movements find expression in institutions, cultural narratives, and shared collective agreements. They meet in conjunction every twenty years, and their conjunctions cluster in the same element for roughly two hundred years before shifting.The two-hundred-year earth era, roughly 1800 to 2000, seeded the industrial revolution and the organization of collective life around physical resource and material production. Its shadow is what the current Chiron in Taurus cycle is being asked to heal.In 1980, Jupiter and Saturn met in Libra, an air sign, for the first time, a foreshadowing of the coming shift. Then on the Winter Solstice of 2020 they met at 0 degrees of Aquarius, confirming the arrival of a new two-hundred-year air era. Mind, communication, relationship, and the invisible infrastructures of shared meaning are now the organizing domain. The AI revolution, the fracturing and reformation of how reality is constructed, the question of genuine collective intelligence — these are the opening expressions of that era.Jupiter trine Saturn today is a harmonious moment within the twenty-year cycle seeded in 2020. Vision and structure finding each other with ease. What Jupiter in Leo has been amplifying — creative gifts, authentic visibility, generous offering in service of something larger — now finds the structural ground that allows it to become more than aspiration.Watch in the broader field for genuine vision finding real-world form. And personally, where is what you have been envisioning ready to find more committed honest structure?Tuesday, September 1: Mars in Cancer squares Saturn in Aries. Mercury in Virgo sextiles Mars in Cancer. Mars in Cancer's instinctual protective force meets Saturn's unsentimental reality principle in friction. The tension between what the feeling body knows needs protecting and what is actually sustainable or feasible right now. Not a suppression of the protective impulse, but a call for strategic honesty. What can you actually do, with genuine resources you have, that serves what most needs protecting?Mercury sextiling Mars offers useful counterbalance, the discerning mind in easy flow with your feeling body. Thought and feeling in conversation. A good day for honest strategic thinking about what matters most and what genuine action actually looks like.The Rest of the Week: Genuine spaciousness. No major contacts. Eclipse integration does not happen through analysis or effort. It happens through the body's slower deeper process, through dreams, through what surfaces in quiet moments, through unexpected conversations that open something waiting. Let the spaciousness be what it is.Larger FrameJupiter trine Saturn sits at the intersection of the twenty-year and two-hundred-year cycles, while all three transpersonal cycles remain activated in the background. The choices being made right now — in how we communicate, what we build, what we protect, what we offer in service of something larger — are not small choices. They are being made at a genuine hinge point in the longer story.Jupiter trine Saturn asks that those choices be made with both vision and honest structure. With both the generosity of the open heart and the reality-tested commitment of genuine form.Reflection QuestionsAs Jupiter trines Saturn, what vision that has been forming is ready to find more honest committed structural form?Where is Mars in Cancer's protective instinct being activated, and what does strategic resource-grounded action in service of what most needs protecting actually look like?In the spaciousness of this integration week, what is your body processing that the mind has not yet caught up with?Podcast Poem: The Dream by Rosemerry Whatola TrommerThe Alchemize the Old taster workshop replay is available as a free resource — an experiential introduction to the transformative pattern-breaking work of the Fire elemental spiral.You can find it at my Home page, ontheedgesofchange.com. under What's Open Now.

What do you do on the morning when there are no good moves left?In March 2001, Ben Horowitz took Loudcloud public in the middle of the dot-com collapse. The bankers cut the price from ten dollars a share to six in the week of the offering. The day before the deal, Yahoo announced its chief executive was stepping down. Neither of the two banks that took the company public offered the traditional closing dinner. On the plane home, Horowitz turned to his director of finance and said they had done it. The reply was that the company was still in very serious trouble.He was right. What followed was a share price of thirty-five cents, three rounds of layoffs, four hundred people gone, and business magazines running cover stories on the collapse.Six years later the same company sold to Hewlett-Packard for 1.6 billion dollars.The distance between those two moments is The Hard Thing About Hard Things, and it is the rare book about building companies written from inside repeated near-death rather than reconstructed afterwards from the winner's chair.[AFFILIATE LINK TO THE BOOK]Horowitz opens by attacking the genre he is writing in. Most management books offer a recipe. He argues that the situations which decide a company have no recipe, and that hunting for one is itself the failure. He then organises the book around that claim, putting the endgame material first, and explains the choice by quoting the first principle of the Bushido: keep death in mind at all times.Part one of this review covers the three lessons that belong together.The Struggle. Horowitz names the psychological state every founder recognises and almost nobody describes out loud, and then refuses to sell a way out of it. What he offers instead is a set of survival habits and one instruction: find the move.CEOs should tell it like it is. Shielding a team from bad news feels like leadership and works like sabotage. Trust is communication bandwidth. A brain cannot solve a problem it does not know about. And a healthy culture is one where bad news travels faster than good news.Lay people off yourself. The hardest act in the book, executed as a written procedure rather than improvised on the day. Why the manager has to do it rather than HR, why a layoff and a performance firing are two different acts that companies constantly blur, and why the message is always for the people who stay.Along the way: what Jensen Huang at Nvidia and Roland Busch at Siemens have in common, why Dale Carnegie's most famous principle has aged into something he never intended, and where Reed Hastings and Ben Horowitz disagree about what you owe the person you are letting go.This is a practical review for founders, CEOs, board members, investors and senior executives who build or finance hard companies, particularly in deep tech and life sciences, where the conditions Horowitz calls wartime are the default rather than the exception.Part two covers the remaining four lessons: wartime and peacetime leadership, the two halves of the chief executive's job and the half where founders reliably come apart, why the impressive executive you hire out of a large company so often produces nothing, and the rule about raising money that changes what a rejection means.Chapters(00:00) Introduction: The Least Celebratory IPO in History (02:26) The Big Idea: Keep Death in Mind at All Times (04:16) Who Is Ben Horowitz, and Why Trust Him (08:55) Lesson 1: The Struggle, and Why No Formula Exists (20:37) Lesson 2: CEOs Should Tell It Like It Is, and Why Trust Is Bandwidth (32:26) Lesson 3: Lay People Off Yourself, Because the Message Is for the People Who Stay (45:21) What Comes in Part TwoSend us Fan Mail Join Christian Soschner for expert coaching. 50% Off - With 35+ years in deep tech, startups/scaleups, and public companies, Christian offers power video sessions.

In Isaiah 36, a foreign voice named Rabshakeh stood at Jerusalem's gates and prophesied doom over a nation God was actually saving. Lance Wallnau says that exact same spirit just resurfaced — and three of conservative media's biggest voices are now carrying it. The bitter taste it leaves in your mouth after every podcast is the giveaway. What really happened to Tucker, Candace, and Kelly? Prophetic voice Lance Wallnau exposes the Sennacherib spirit — a 2,700-year-old lying voice that intimidates God's people, counterfeits wisdom, and robs you of the awareness of victory even while America is breaking through. In this episode: - The Isaiah 36 pattern repeating in conservative talk media right now - Why Jesus said discerning of spirits matters MORE than healing in the last days - Jane Hammond's revelation about the toxic vapor smothering America - The wine connoisseur secret to cleansing your spiritual palate - "Mind like water" — how to stop the enemy from amplifying every pebble into a boulder - Why the most capable Christians get quietly taken out of the battle - The hidden tactic Satan uses to rob you of breakthrough you already won - What David's own brothers teach us about being misjudged on the way to destiny - How walking in peace becomes the ultimate weapon of discernment If you've felt heavy, demoralized, or like nothing in this country is working — even while something deep inside you knows America is breaking through — this episode names the spirit doing it to you, and how to break its grip before it steals one more day of your victory.

The Mind: Friend or EnemyWho is actually running your life—you, or your mind?The mind is constantly talking to us.I want this.I don't like that.I'm worried about this.I need to do that.What will people think of me?And very often, we simply follow where it leads. And we're often told: “Follow your dreams.” But should every desire that enters our mind really be followed?The Bhagavad-gita presents a sobering truth:“For one who has conquered the mind, the mind is the best of friends; but for one who has failed to do so, the mind will remain the greatest enemy.”Our desires, choices, words and actions are profoundly influenced by what is happening within the mind. And those actions, in turn, shape the direction of our lives.So should we really “follow our dreams” simply because the mind produces them?Or should we first ask: Where is this desire taking me?Even Arjuna tells Krishna that controlling the restless mind seems as difficult as controlling the wind. Krishna acknowledges the difficulty—but says it can be done through practice and detachment.The yogic understanding goes even deeper.You are not your mind.Thoughts come and go. Desires arise and disappear. Emotions change. Memories surface and fade. Yet behind them is the conscious person who observes and experiences them—the eternal spiritual self.The challenge, therefore, is not to allow the mind to become the master.Through bhakti-yoga—hearing spiritual wisdom, chanting sacred names and offering our activities to Krishna—the mind itself can gradually become transformed.Like an iron rod placed repeatedly into fire eventually becoming red-hot and taking on the qualities of fire, the mind immersed in spiritual sound and spiritual activity can gradually become purified.The mind doesn't have to be our enemy.It can become one of our greatest spiritual assets—but we shouldn't let it drive the bus.Chapters 00:00:00 Invocation and the Mind as the Subject of the Lecture 00:01:42 Perception, the Senses, and the Mind as the Inner Screen 00:07:53 Modes of Material Nature and Mental Conditioning 00:13:09 Karma, the Restless Mind, and Krishna's Guidance 00:19:42 The Mind as Enemy: Harmful Choices and Modern Influences 00:31:34 Practice, Detachment, and a Case of Mental Recovery 00:38:33 Bhakti-Yoga and the Spiritualization of Mind and Body 00:49:01 Sense Desire, Mental Concoction, and Spiritual Happiness 00:57:17 Core Takeaway: Identity, Responsibility, and Direction 00:59:54 Human Life, Rebirth, and the Value of Spiritual Opportunity 01:07:14 Spiritual Form, Svarupa, and Siddha Svarupa#BhagavadGita #GuideForLife #MindControl #BhaktiYoga #Krishna #SpiritualWisdom #SelfRealization #YogaWisdom #SpiritualLife

Mary Jo's back with three money topics every farmer and rancher needs to hear. The thread running through all of them: it's not how much money you make — it's how you USE it. In this episode: the private equity news making headlines in the life insurance world (and why Mary Jo's clients don't need to panic), the "no medical exam up to $4 million" hook being pitched to farmers on Instagram, and the scarcity mindset that's holding back the entire agriculture industry — including why letting your hired man run a few cows might be the smartest move you make. What you'll learn: Why private equity in life insurance isn't the crisis the headlines suggest The truth behind "express underwriting" and no-medical-exam policies Why lying on an application means your claim won't get paid "If you can't manage a dollar, you can't manage a million" The scarcity mindset — and why helping your employees succeed helps YOU ⏱️ Chapters: 0:00 Intro & What's On Today's Mind 1:12 Private Equity in Life Insurance (Mass Mutual in the News) 4:05 The "$4M No-Medical" Hook Targeting Farmers 11:19 It's Not What You Make, It's How You Use It 15:08 Let Your Hired Man Run Cows?
