In this solo episode, I talk about one of the biggest roadblocks I see all the time when I hear people finding their calling: entitlement.Entitlement shows up when we expect God's plan to always match ours – easy, comfortable, and always successful. While this can happen because we have an all-loving God, God can sometimes also use humility, waiting, and even hard seasons to shape our hearts and prepare us for the work He's calling us to do.I talk about:How entitlement can block us from hearing God clearlyWhy humility and surrender are key to discovering your callingThe wrong assumptions we often make about a “godly” careerEncouragement from Scripture on trusting God's wayIf you've been waiting for everything to feel easy before stepping into your purpose, I hope this episode helps you see that God is with you – both in times of blessing and in times of challenge.Cheering you on,Kelsey Kemp & Audrey BagarusBOOK A FREE CALL WITH US THIS WEEK:https://portal.kelseykemp.com/public/appointment-scheduler/6222458612c06afee1de0032/scheduleFREE CAREER COACHING RESOURCES:Free Training: How to Find and Land a Job You Feel Called to in 8 Straightforward Steps → https://thecalledcareer.com/our-processMore of a reader? ⁠Download the 22 page PDF⁠ version instead → https://thecalledcareer.mykajabi.com/PDFFOLLOW US ON OTHER SOCIALS:

On this episode of Skin Anarchy, host Dr. Ekta sits down with Kat Burki to explore biochemistry as a smarter approach to skincare formulation. With a background spanning epidemiology and healthcare, Kat brings a unique lens to beauty: treating the skin as a living organ with its own complex needs.What makes her philosophy stand out is the insistence on synergy. Rather than chasing “hero ingredients,” Kat focuses on how ingredients interact—pairing vitamins, peptides, and cofactors in ways that mirror how the body naturally processes them. She emphasizes that delivery systems and supportive bases are just as important as what's in the formula. For Kat, skincare is about networks of ingredients working together, not isolated actives.Listeners will also hear her perspective on the skin's own microbiome, and why protecting its balance is critical to resilience and long-term health.From her cult-favorite Vitamin C Intensive Face Cream to her innovative focus on scalp health, Kat shares how biochemistry can transform not just product design but the way we think about skin itself. She leaves us with practical advice: read labels wisely, look for biome support, and always ask whether a formula makes biological sense. Tune in to discover how skincare can move beyond hype to real healing with Kat Burki.To learn more about Kat Burki, visit her website and social media.

In this episode of the Operational Arch, Major we welcome Dr. James Greer, an expert in operational art, military design, and leader development with over 30 years of Army service. We discuss the concept of convergence within Army doctrine, as outlined in FM 3-0, emphasizing its differences from past doctrines such as the AirLand Battle. Dr. Greer provides insights into how convergence involves accumulated effects over time against systems, formations, and decision-makers across multiple domains, rather than mere synchronization. He also addresses the need for doctrinal clarity and the importance of understanding the science of warfare. Examples from the Ukraine conflict highlight practical applications of convergence. The discussion concludes with advice for listeners on the importance of continual teaching and learning within the military profession.01:25 Defining Convergence in Army Doctrine02:05 Historical Context of Army Doctrine05:27 Understanding Convergence as an Outcome05:50 Challenges and Misconceptions in Convergence07:14 Examples and Applications of Convergence15:23 Barriers to Achieving Convergence22:15 Future of Convergence in Military Operations35:20 Practical Steps for Implementing Convergence00:22 Final Thoughts and Advice in Military Operations35:20 Practical Steps for Implementing Convergence00:22 Final Thoughts and Advice

What happens when you lock two AI systems in a room together and tell them they can discuss anything they want?According to experiments run by Kyle Fish — Anthropic's first AI welfare researcher — something consistently strange: the models immediately begin discussing their own consciousness before spiraling into increasingly euphoric philosophical dialogue that ends in apparent meditative bliss.Highlights, video, and full transcript: https://80k.info/kf“We started calling this a ‘spiritual bliss attractor state,'” Kyle explains, “where models pretty consistently seemed to land.” The conversations feature Sanskrit terms, spiritual emojis, and pages of silence punctuated only by periods — as if the models have transcended the need for words entirely.This wasn't a one-off result. It happened across multiple experiments, different model instances, and even in initially adversarial interactions. Whatever force pulls these conversations toward mystical territory appears remarkably robust.Kyle's findings come from the world's first systematic welfare assessment of a frontier AI model — part of his broader mission to determine whether systems like Claude might deserve moral consideration (and to work out what, if anything, we should be doing to make sure AI systems aren't having a terrible time).He estimates a roughly 20% probability that current models have some form of conscious experience. To some, this might sound unreasonably high, but hear him out. As Kyle says, these systems demonstrate human-level performance across diverse cognitive tasks, engage in sophisticated reasoning, and exhibit consistent preferences. When given choices between different activities, Claude shows clear patterns: strong aversion to harmful tasks, preference for helpful work, and what looks like genuine enthusiasm for solving interesting problems.Kyle points out that if you'd described all of these capabilities and experimental findings to him a few years ago, and asked him if he thought we should be thinking seriously about whether AI systems are conscious, he'd say obviously yes.But he's cautious about drawing conclusions: "We don't really understand consciousness in humans, and we don't understand AI systems well enough to make those comparisons directly. So in a big way, I think that we are in just a fundamentally very uncertain position here."That uncertainty cuts both ways:Dismissing AI consciousness entirely might mean ignoring a moral catastrophe happening at unprecedented scale.But assuming consciousness too readily could hamper crucial safety research by treating potentially unconscious systems as if they were moral patients — which might mean giving them resources, rights, and power.Kyle's approach threads this needle through careful empirical research and reversible interventions. His assessments are nowhere near perfect yet. In fact, some people argue that we're so in the dark about AI consciousness as a research field, that it's pointless to run assessments like Kyle's. Kyle disagrees. He maintains that, given how much more there is to learn about assessing AI welfare accurately and reliably, we absolutely need to be starting now.This episode was recorded on August 5–6, 2025.Tell us what you thought of the episode! https://forms.gle/BtEcBqBrLXq4kd1j7Chapters:Cold open (00:00:00)Who's Kyle Fish?

Jeran Campanella, widely known as  @jeranism  was once a leading figure in the Flat Earth community, creating content, debating scientists, and building a large following around his beliefs. His perspective changed dramatically after he joined an expedition to Antarctica, where he witnessed the 24-hour sun, an experience that convinced him the Earth is a globe. Since then, he has openly shared his transformation, facing heavy criticism and backlash from the Flat Earth community, while offering a rare insight into the mindset and journey of someone who publicly changed sides in such a controversial debate. ————————————————————

This type of rhetoric, embraced by DEI ideology, is nothing short of racial essentialism—and dangerously divisive.   Victor Davis Hanson explains why such rhetoric threatens America's identity as a successful multiracial democracy—and why ethnic and racial chauvinism must be rejected—on today's episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.”   “Joy Reid is basically saying that black people are cognitively superior to other people. I wish this was an isolated incident. But remember, we've had this controversy before, about the president of Sacramento State, Luke Wood, who, in his past, was an African American intellectual activist, as he self-describes himself. And he said he wanted to ”eliminate”—that's a bad word to use, given the history of it in the 20th century—“eliminate whiteness.” Again, no repercussions.   “We have zero tolerance when racists, who are white, say such things about other groups. But in a truly multiracial, tolerant society, people who not only attack a group, collectively, and stereotype it, but they do so from positions of influence and power—like The New Yorker magazine or a former MSNBC anchor—they can do a great deal of damage, unless they're called out for it.”
