Are You Trading Your Health for Your Hustle? I thought I had to grind nonstop to win, but what if taking care of yourself is actually the key to achieving more? In this conversation with Michelle Bang, we unpack why “self-care” isn't just a buzzword—it's a non-negotiable if you want to live well while you climb. Michelle's journey from landing in the emergency room at the height of her success to rediscovering ancient Korean wellness practices is a wake-up call for anyone who thinks they'll get around to health “later.” Michelle breaks down why something as simple as walking after dinner can transform your energy, why fermented foods like kimchi are more than trendy side dishes, and why traditional Korean bathhouses have been quietly reducing heart attacks for generations. We talk about healthspan—not just how long you live, but how well you live—and how embracing practices like daily movement, mindful nourishment, and building community can give you back the edge you need without burning out your body. She shares how she went from ignoring her gut health and running on fumes to reclaiming her vitality by reconnecting with the wisdom she grew up with in Korea and Hong Kong. It's a reminder that no level of achievement is worth trading your health for, and taking small, consistent steps now will let you actually enjoy the life you're building. I challenge you today: Audit your well-being while you're chasing your dreams. Could taking better care of yourself actually help you climb higher? You are the one person you're going to spend your entire life with—take care of you. Key Takeaways: Why self-care is essential, not optional, for high achievers. How daily walks can improve digestion, reduce glucose spikes, and enhance creativity. The gut-brain connection and why fermented foods matter. The impact of “healthspan” versus just living longer. How traditional Korean practices like “jjimjilbang” and the cultural value of “Jeong” can be applied to your life now. If this hits you where you're at right now, share this episode with someone who needs the reminder, and let's start taking care of the one person who's with us for life: ourselves.

Have you ever asked yourself: When was the last time I stepped outside my comfort zone? How do I make sure I'm intentionally setting a positive example for my kids? Am I encouraging my children to take extra steps? In an era dominated by online interactions and instant applications, it's easy to think that old-fashioned manners and direct communication have become obsolete. But as this episode of The Dad Edge reveals, those little “extra” steps are exactly what set people apart—in job interviews, difficult situations, and life in general Today, Ethan Hagner recounts his journey to land a summer job—not just sending in online applications, but suiting up, showing up in person, introducing himself, and even dropping off a thank-you note after a surprise interview.  As Larry points out, these simple, direct actions are the "gold" from previous generations—habits that build character and open doors Ethan Hagner also teases out how small acts of empathy and presence, learned in everyday family life, are already preparing him for bigger moments—like shadowing firefighters and helping his injured dad. The episode underscores the importance of empathy, remaining calm under pressure, and showing up wholeheartedly—in family crises, career moments, and daily interactions. As Larry puts it, “Control the controllables”—focus on what you can do, and do it with intention. Become the best husband you can: https://bit.ly/deamarriageyoutube In this vital episode, we dig into: Old-School Gold for the Next Generation: Larry reflects on the lost art of face-to-face interactions, handshakes, and eye contact, and how these “little” things are game-changers in both personal and professional life. Ethan chimes in with stories from his own journey, showing just how powerful simple, intentional actions can be. Handling Life's Dark and Difficult Moments: Ethan opens up about shadowing at the local fire department and preparing to face tough situations as a future firefighter. With honest talk about nervousness and empathy, the guys highlight how staying calm, focused, and supportive in chaos is a true superpower. Larry recounts a recent accident and how Ethan's steady approach driving him to the hospital—in the middle of nowhere, no cell signal, potholes galore—proved his grit and composure. Bringing Back Legendary Manners: There's a clear call to action here: Dads, let's teach (and model) the old-school habits that make a difference—shaking hands, making eye contact, showing up, following through, and, yes, even thank you notes. These are the moves that open doors and build relationships for life. This episode offers powerful stories, practical advice, and the reminder to always lead by example.

Modern parents face a crucial dilemma: today's children spend 4 to 7 minutes in unsupervised play daily. While helicopter parenting can decrease confidence and increase anxiety, free-range parenting builds independence - but the key lies in finding the right balance between protection and freedom.

What if the key to designing better cities wasn't just in concrete, code, or cost, but in understanding how our brains actually work?In this episode, I talk with Ann Sussman and Kelsey Bradley of the Human Architecture and Planning Institute (HAPI) about a subject that's as profound as it is underdiscussed: how our unconscious biology reacts to the built environment – and how that should change everything about how we design.Ann, architect and author of Cognitive Architecture  and Kelsey, founder of Design Cause Inc., now Executive Director at HAPI, walk us through the neuroscience of placemaking. We talk eye tracking. Skin conductivity. Heart rate variability. And how our “Stone Age brains” are still calibrated for the Savannah, even when we're stuck in a strip mall.This episode will validate what many of us feel but can't quite explain why some places energize us, and others quietly drain us. The answers aren't just aesthetic.

What is the most important question everyone is silently asking? According to David Horsager, the answer is clear: "Can I trust you?" In this episode, David shares why trust isn't merely a soft skill, but rather an asset that drives leadership, innovation, sales, retention, and more. He explains that a lack of trust represents the biggest cost to organizations and is the true cause behind many issues we typically attribute to communication, leadership, or marketing. Additionally, he introduces his research-backed framework of the 8 Pillars of Trust: clarity, compassion, character, competency, commitment, connection, contribution, and consistency. David also offers some tools we can use today to turn trust into results. David's Story: Dr. David Horsager, MA, CSP, CPAE, is the bestselling author of four books, including his latest, Trust Matters More Than Ever. David is CEO of Trust Edge Leadership Institute and a global authority on helping leaders and organizations become the most trusted in their industry. He is the inventor of The Enterprise Trust Index™, director of the annual study—The Trust Outlook™, and national bestselling author of The Trust Edge. With clients ranging from Fortune 100 companies to professional sports teams and global governments, David has taken the platform across the United States and on 6 continents.

As the Soviets were fighting the Germans all along a 1000 mile long front, they were demanding that the Allies in the west do something to open a second front against the Germans.  We'll get to the Allies eventual response to this in a couple of episodes, but the western allies had the same problem invading Europe that the Germans had had when they were thinking about invading Britain.  That problem was the English Channel.  In order to send an invasion fleet across the channel to land in France, the Allies had to have complete control of the air above the channel, to protect the invasion fleet from German planes.  So before the sea-borne invasion could take place, the Allies needed to defeat the Luftwaffe, or at least drive them back from their bases in France where they could attack an invasion fleet.  So the Allies started building up their air forces in Great Britain. The Royal Air Force, which had done such a heroic job of defeating the Luftwaffe in the Battle of Britain, had continued to build up its fighter and bomber forces.  But early 1942, they were joined by the newly formed American group, the Eighth Air Force.  The Americans began to ship men, planes, bombs and ammo, and fuel to Great Britain.  By the end of the war, the Americans are going to have over 200 airbases in Great Britain, with over half a million men on those bases, and over 50,000 planes.

Steven and Shaun tackle the big questions this week—from being trapped in a recliner to debating whether sheltered workshops for disabled people still have value. Plus, listener emails spark deep dives into Braille, inclusion, and how technology can both help and hinder.In this episode of Double Tap, Steven shares his comical ordeal of being stuck in an electric recliner during a power outage—complete with melting KitKats and home automation chaos. Shaun adds his own take on tech dependency and heatwave fashion choices.The conversation shifts into more serious territory as they respond to listener emails. Doug Lawlor reignites the Braille literacy debate, emphasizing the value of combining Braille and screen reader skills. Steven and Shaun unpack the pros and cons of teaching Braille later in life, the barriers to adoption, and accessibility challenges in public spaces like cruise ships and toilets.Later, a message from Raheem in Ireland about sheltered workshops in Kenya sparks a meaningful discussion about employment, inclusion, and whether creating dedicated workspaces for disabled people might offer purpose and community—especially when mainstream systems fall short.Steven ends with a powerful call for blind leadership in blindness organizations, questioning why inclusion often seems to exclude the very people it aims to support.Chapters00:00 - Introduction00:30 - Shaun's incredible trousers02:28 - Steven's power dilemma07:51 - Should blind people buy bulbs?15:26 - Listener Doug talks about braille literacy31:52 - Listener Mickey likes our newsletter33:12 - Listener Raheem discusses the value of blind workshops in Kenya55:08 - Rumours of new style Meta frames coming soon Find Double Tap online: YouTube, Double Tap Website---Follow on:YouTube: https://www.doubletaponair.com/youtubeX (formerly Twitter): https://www.doubletaponair.com/xInstagram: https://www.doubletaponair.com/instagramTikTok: https://www.doubletaponair.com/tiktokThreads: https://www.doubletaponair.com/threadsFacebook: https://www.doubletaponair.com/facebookLinkedIn: https://www.doubletaponair.com/linkedin Subscribe to the Podcast:Apple: https://www.doubletaponair.com/appleSpotify: https://www.doubletaponair.com/spotifyRSS: https://www.doubletaponair.com/podcastiHeadRadio: https://www.doubletaponair.com/iheart About Double TapHosted by the insightful duo, Steven Scott and Shaun Preece, Double Tap is a treasure trove of information for anyone who's blind or partially sighted and has a passion for tech.

Theologian and cultural commentator Jonathan Pageau joins The Winston Marshall Show for a profound discussion on meaning, myth, and the crumbling foundations of the post-war consensus.Pageau argues that the secular order built after WWII—rooted in liberalism, materialism, and the rejection of transcendent values—is collapsing under the weight of its own contradictions. As old narratives dissolve, chaos rushes in to fill the void: identity politics, technocracy, and ideological extremism.They explore the spiritual cost of modernity, the dangers of trying to build a society without sacred stories, and why the breakdown of shared mythos is leaving the West vulnerable to civilizational decay.All this—rituals, relativism, revolution, and the desperate search for meaning in a world that has forgotten its soul…-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------To see more exclusive content and interviews consider subscribing to my substack here: https://www.winstonmarshall.co.uk/-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------FOLLOW ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA:Substack: https://www.winstonmarshall.co.uk/X: https://twitter.com/mrwinmarshallInsta: https://www.instagram.com/winstonmarshallLinktree: https://linktr.ee/winstonmarshall----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Chapters2:39 Reframing World War II and Its Consensus 43:28 Emerging Narratives and Historical Revisionism 58:21 The Dichotomy of Nationalism and Globalism 1:05:41 The Role of Symbols in Cultural and Political Narratives 1:08:54 Online Phenomenon and Political Parties 1:15:43 Role of Christianity and Identity 1:21:34 Nationalism and Empire vs. Modern Nation-State 1:24:15 Closing Thoughts Hosted on Acast.

The ancient wisdom that keeps coming back because it's true Athens, 399 BCE. Socrates holds the cup of hemlock, about to die for something that can't be proven - only known. The daimonion. The inner voice. The shamanic function that guides from beyond rational thought. 2,400 years later, we call it the unconscious. Or intuition. Or the default mode network. Same truth, different words: There's something in us that knows, and everything depends on whether we listen. This final episode reveals the perennial philosophy underlying all effective therapy. The wisdom that every culture discovers, then forgets, then rediscovers when the forgetting becomesunbearable. https://gettherapybirmingham.com/the-weird-history-of-psychotherapy-part-5-the-perennial-philosophy/ You'll learn: Why depression and anxiety might be evolutionary features, not bugs The eternal tension between warriors (order) and shamans (transformation) How modern neuroscience validates ancient insights about multiple selves Why we keep forgetting what works (hint: there's no profit in wholeness) The metamodern moment: learning to hold paradox in a polarized world What therapy looks like when it remembers we're shamanic beings From Socrates' inner voice to Jung's active imagination to modern parts work, the same insights keep emerging. Not because they're trendy, but because they're true. True like the sunrise. True like the need for love. True like the mystery we can never fully grasp but must learn to dance with.

The race to develop ever-more-powerful AI is creating an unstable dynamic. It could lead us toward either dystopian centralized control or uncontrollable chaos. But there's a third option: a narrow path where technological power is matched with responsibility at every step.Sam Hammond is the chief economist at the Foundation for American Innovation. He brings a different perspective to this challenge than we do at CHT. Though he approaches AI from an innovation-first standpoint, we share a common mission on the biggest challenge facing humanity: finding and navigating this narrow path.This episode dives deep into the challenges ahead: How will AI reshape our institutions? Is complete surveillance inevitable, or can we build guardrails around it? Can our 19th-century government structures adapt fast enough, or will they be replaced by a faster moving private sector? And perhaps most importantly: how do we solve the coordination problems that could determine whether we build AI as a tool to empower humanity or as a superintelligence that we can't control?We're in the final window of choice before AI becomes fully entangled with our economy and society. This conversation explores how we might still get this right.Your Undivided Attention is produced by the Center for Humane Technology. Follow us on X: @HumaneTech_.

Every once in a while, there is a great moment or battle that really changes the course of history.  Yes, yes, I know I said that exact thing at the beginning of the last episode too, but I need to say it again, because this episode is, once again, a pivotal moment in human history.  And instead of it being decided by a few crucial minutes, this battle will take about half of the year of 1942.  And unlike the Battle of Midway, where the casualties were measured in the thousands, the casualties in the battle of Stalingrad will be measured in the millions. Welcome to the deadliest battle in all of human history, the battle of Stalingrad.

“Without lineage, a man becomes a wanderer in his own body.”This one's a rite of passage in itself.Jacob sits down with Kale Kaalehaki, cultural revivalist, father, and co-founder of Sacred Souls, to speak on what most modern men are missing, not breathwork, not biohacks, not six-packs… but belonging.Together, they unpack why grief is the doorway to manhood, how routine without reverence keeps us hollow, and what it truly means to return to land, lineage, and life as sacred.This one's for the men who've trained, regulated, achieved, and still feel hollow.This one's for the ones ready to come back to land, to ritual, to story, to fire.To what was never supposed to be forgotten.If you've ever felt like your nervous system was regulated but your soul still felt lost, this conversation is the fire you didn't know you needed.

In this episode of “Science, Religion, and the Modern World,” Michael talks about self-consciousness, freewill, and how they work together. L'articolo E63 | Science, Religion, and the Modern World – Michael Flanagan – Psychology and Religion proviene da Radio Maria.

In this thought-provoking episode of "Father and Joe," Joe Rockey and Father Boniface invite listeners to embark on a profound exploration of the indispensable role the Church has played in shaping our modern world. The episode begins with Joe recounting a vivid mental image of the crucifixion as a catalyst for the birth of the Church, underscoring the intimate relationship between Jesus and Mary at that pivotal moment. This visualization leads to a broader introspection about the myriad aspects of life we often take for granted, much like electricity during a power outage.Father Boniface expands on this notion, emphasizing how the Church has been the bedrock of countless modern advancements. Contrary to popular belief, the Church's influence extends well beyond spiritual guidance to include nurturing the growth of science, art, education, healthcare, and even the very foundations of Western civilization. From Galileo and Kepler to the architectural marvels that dot our urban landscapes, the Church's contributions are immeasurable.The conversation takes a practical turn, as Father Boniface and Joe challenge listeners to imagine a world without these contributions—a world where essential moral frameworks, scientific inquiry, and artistic endeavors never reached their full potential. The Church's historical commitment to fostering intellectual curiosity and compassion has provided humanity with tools to face the future with hope and innovation.Listeners are encouraged to appreciate the profound interconnectedness of human endeavor and divine inspiration. This episode highlights the importance of recognizing and nurturing the unique talents each of us brings to the table, advancing the Church's mission in diverse, meaningful ways. As we make use of our gifts to benefit others, we build on a legacy of faith-driven achievements that have sculpted both past and present.Join Joe and Father Boniface in this enriching dialogue that calls upon each of us to rediscover the foundations of our faith, recognize the Church's unseen influence in our lives, and aspire to contribute to its enduring mission. Together, let's engage with our spirituality, cultivate gratitude for our shared history, and step into our roles as active participants in a community bound by love, purpose, and faith.Tags:Faith, Church, Spirituality, Community, Purpose, Gratitude, Science and Faith, Historical Influence, Modern Civilization, Intellectual Curiosity, Artistic Contribution, Healthcare, Education, Western Civilization, Modern Science, Personal Talents, Contribution, Spiritual Direction, Divine Inspiration, Legacy, Innovation, Moral Frameworks, Global Influence, Relationship with God, Individual Calling, Society, Dependence, Forward-Looking, Creativity, Compassion, Hope, God, Love, Western Values, Empowerment, Fellowship, Historical Accounts, Contentment, Fulfillment, Meaningful Service, Connection, Modern Church.Hashtags:#FaithJourney, #RediscoverChurch, #SpiritualDirection, #GratitudeInFaith, #ChurchContributions, #HistoryOfScience, #FaithAndScience, #CulturalHeritage, #SpiritualGrowth, #PurposefulLiving, #CommunityInFaith, #WesternCivilization, #ArtAndFaith, #DivineInspiration, #RoleOfChurch, #MoralValues, #IntellectualCuriosity, #SpiritualAwakening, #EducationalImpact, #HealthcareLegacy, #HumanConnection, #ChurchAndModernity, #GlobalFaith, #RelationshipWithGod, #ChurchInfluence, #SpiritualLegacy, #CreativityAndFaith, #CompassionateLiving, #ModernGod, #EmpowermentThroughFaith, #LegacyOfTheChurch, #FellowshipTogether, #HistoricalInfluence, #GodAndCulture, #ContentmentInFaith, #ServingWithLove, #CulturalImpact, #BuildingTheFuture, #FaithAndHope.

When was Checkpoint Charlie created in Berlin? What triggered Stalin to enact a blockade on West Berlin? And how did the Western powers airlift over 2.3 million tons of supplies to their occupied zone of the city from 1948 to 1949? William and Anita are joined once again by Giles Milton, author of Checkmate in Berlin: The Cold War Showdown That Shaped the Modern World, to discuss the Berlin Blockade, the Berlin Airlift, and the way in which the Iron Curtain hardened towards the end of the 1940s. ----------------- Empire Club: Become a member of the Empire Club to receive early access to miniseries, ad-free listening, early access to live show tickets, bonus episodes, book discounts, our exclusive newsletter, and access to our members' chatroom on Discord!

Every once in a while, there is a great moment or battle that really changes the course of history.  The Battle of Salamis, Caesar crossing the Rubicon, Charles the Hammer winning the Battle of Tours, The Battle of Hastings in 1066, Luther nailing the 95 theses to the door in Wittenberg, the assassination of Archduke Francis Ferdinand, the time I defeated my neighborhood HOA by installing a whole pallet of grass sod in my front yard even before they mailed me a nasty letter.  I got other nasty HOA letters, but not about the front yard grass. All of those were key moments that changed the direction of history in some way.  They turned the tide, so to speak.  And this episode is one of those moments.  And, as a quick spoiler, next episode will be one, too.  

In the fourth installment of the “Ancient Paths: Unshakable Truths for a Modern World” series, Pastor Mike Haman teaches the importance of sanctification and the impact that it has on our lives.

In this episode of Scaling UP! H2O, host Trace Blackmore interviews Jake Deak, Marketing & Inside Sales Director at Pyxis Lab, for a deep dive into how innovation is born—not in labs, but in the field. Jake shares the story of Pyxis Lab's rapid evolution from a lean, hands-on team to an industry leader in developing smart, user-informed water treatment technology.   Building Solutions from Real-World Problems  Jake Deak's journey began during the pandemic, stepping into a role shaped by both legacy and urgency. Working closely with his father and the Pyxis team, he reveals how their approach centers around listening intently to water treatment professionals and designing products that directly solve the problems they face.  From the ST500 sensor to the OxiPanel, Jake breaks down how each product starts with a call from the field—an operator struggling with membrane fouling, or a technician frustrated by unreliable chlorine measurements. Pyxis doesn't stop at fixing problems; it uses those challenges as fuel for continuous R&D cycles, bringing hardware, firmware, and app-based solutions to life.   Innovation Through Collaboration and Core Values  The success of Pyxis Lab isn't just about technology—it's about a culture deeply rooted in empathy and real-world experience. Jacob discusses the importance of maintaining strong core values and explains how hiring practices focused on field expertise led to better tools and better service for end users.   From Product Development to Media Innovation  Leveraging his media background, Jacob also reveals the upcoming launch of Pyxis Lab's new podcast, "In The Flow." Created to foster industry education and dialogue, this initiative underscores the company's commitment to advancing the water treatment profession through open communication and shared knowledge.   A Clear Takeaway  If there's one message that defines this episode, it's that the best innovations don't begin in isolation—they begin with a conversation. Whether it's a technician venting a daily frustration or a field team asking “what if?”, Pyxis Lab listens and acts. And as Jake reminds us, the future belongs to those who adapt, engage, and stay relentlessly curious.   Conclusion  Jacob Deak exemplifies the spirit of innovation that is reshaping the water treatment industry. Through passion, practicality, and persistence, his work at Pyxis Lab offers a compelling model for how technology and human experience can work hand in hand to create better solutions for water professionals worldwide.  Continue expanding your professional knowledge by subscribing to "Scaling UP!

What was life like in Berlin in the immediate aftermath of the Second World War? Why did the Red Army steal taps from Berlin houses when they reached the city? Was the famous photo of the red flag on the Reichstag staged or authentic? Anita and William are joined by Giles Milton, author of Checkmate in Berlin: The Cold War Showdown That Shaped the Modern World, to discuss the division and destitution of the capital city after the Second World War.  ----------------- Empire Club: Become a member of the Empire Club to receive early access to miniseries, ad-free listening, early access to live show tickets, bonus episodes, book discounts, our exclusive newsletter, and access to our members' chatroom on Discord!

This week on The Gedunk Show, Dan and I dive into one of the most transformative forces in American history: the GI Bill. We explore how this single piece of legislation didn't just send veterans to college — it launched a middle class, fueled the economy, and laid the foundation for post-WWII innovation. We connect the dots from federally funded university research to life-saving medical advances, tech breakthroughs, and global leadership. But here's the catch: all of that is now under threat. As Donald Trump and his allies move to defund public education and slash research budgets, the very engine that built modern America — and much of the modern world — is grinding to a halt. We break down why that matters, what's at stake, and how this rollback isn't just short-sighted… it's a global risk.

Pastor Mike Haman continues in the “Ancient Paths: Unshakable Truths for a Modern World” series by teaching the doctrine of salvation from the reality of sin to the impact of the cross.

This episode was originally published last March.Japanese ‘kidults' revolutionised pop culture in the 90s and 00s, turning to their inner children to cope with economic crisis and post-industrial societal ills, despite being ridiculed. As the milestones of adulthood - property, marriage and careers - become increasingly difficult for millennials and Gen Z to achieve - are westerners now turning to ‘kidulting' to find answers?

Did you know that up to the Partition of India in 1947, Kashmiri Muslims lived in conditions that very much resembled serfdom? Exploitation of Kashmiri Muslims was particularly notable during the Dogra Dynasty, which ruled the princely state of Jammu and Kashmir from 1846 to 1947.Since their partition in 1947, India and Pakistan have fought four wars: in 1947, 1965, 1971 and 1999. Based on research and information, three of these wars were specifically about the Kashmir region. In this interview, I bring historical perspective to conflicts and crises about Kashmir by asking my guest scholar the following questions: ►Is Jammu and Kashmir different than Kashmir?►Who are Kashmiris?►Why did Persian missionaries visit Kashmir?►What happened to Kashmir after the Mughal Empire?►What does it mean that Kashmir was a princely state?►Did the British introduce a more egalitarian system in Kashmir? If so, why?►Why Kashmir was an autonomous region under British rule and until recently in the Republic of India?►Why is Kashmir called the Indian Administered Kashmir?►How did Kashmir become a part of India?►What was the Kashmir massacre that happened in 1947?►How are Kashmiris 'othered' in India?►What is it about Kashmir that makes it different from all other Indian states?►Is Kashmir an integral part of India?►Would my guest scholar be able to freely talk about Kashmir's history in India?
