In today's intricate social landscape, the pursuit of control within romantic partnerships surfaces as a significant concern, revealing deeper truths about love, compliance, and emotional needs.
Today we're talking about marriage - specifically, how Christian marriages might be missing the mark. I'm sitting down with Sheila Gregoire, a researcher who's spent years studying what actually makes relationships work. And here's something interesting: the biggest threat to marital satisfaction isn't what most people think. It's not sex or money - it's housework. Sheila isn't just another marriage author. She's surveyed 7,000 people to understand the dynamics of healthy relationships. Her work challenges a lot of the traditional evangelical advice that's been circulating for decades - advice that often creates more distance than connection. We're going to explore how Christian marriage books have sometimes gotten it wrong. How messages about leadership, submission, and roles can actually harm the very relationships they're trying to protect. We'll talk about what real partnership looks like, how couples can communicate better, and what it means to truly see each other. This conversation is about reimagining marriage - not as a power structure, but as a genuine partnership that reflects mutual respect and love. So if you're curious about building a healthier relationship, or if you're tired of the same old marriage advice, this episode is for you.Sheila Wray Gregoire is the face behind BareMarriage.com as well as a sought-after speaker and an award-winning author of nine books, including The Great Sex Rescue and She Deserves Better. With her humorous, no-nonsense approach, Sheila is passionate about changing the evangelical conversation about sex and marriage to make it healthy, evidence-based, and biblical. She and her husband, Keith, live in Ontario, Canada, near their two adult daughters and three grandbabies. Sheila also knits.

When Everyone Wins is about creating win/win relationships in our personal and professional lives. This requires a shift from power-over and power-under to shared power in which people have developed power-within and generously offer power-between and power-for one another. Shared power is the only reliable path to mutual respect, high trust and rich collaboration. In this interview, Alyssa Hawn,ThetaHealing Practitioner & Instructor, Human Design Reader, LifeWork Systems oversight consultant, and producer at the Transformation Network discusses her relationship with host Judy Ryan. Together, they speak about the joy and value they find in sharing power that results in equity and a deeply caring relationship. They demonstrate shared power in an inter-generational relationship where each brings their unique gifts and strengths. What we will discuss in this interview may include: What is the significance of moving from pretense and power-struggle to behaviors that create lasting. caring community?How does shared power strengthen core needs in people so they consistently experience healthy belonging and significance?How does understanding Adler's individual psychology support psychological safety, trust and openness in all, no matter a person's title, role, life experience, and overall differences?What has it been like to be in an inter-generational relationship in which power is shared and where each contributes to and supports wild success in each other?What stories and messages do we offer the world about the gifts in win/win, shared power relationships?

This men's breakfast group at HRBC explored Ephesians 1-3, focusing on God's initiative in salvation (indicative verbs) versus the believer's response (imperative verbs). The discussion highlighted God's actions: choosing, blessing, predestining, redemption, and sealing believers with the Holy Spirit. Pastor Anthony Uvenio contrasted this with the imperative commands in Ephesians 4-6, emphasizing that true Christian living stems from recognizing and responding to God's prior work. The group connected this to Titus, stressing the importance of aligning behavior with God's grace. Ezekiel 36 was referenced to illustrate God's actions being for His glory, not solely for Israel's merit. The discussion also touched upon the dual location of believers: physically on earth, spiritually in Christ, and the importance of remembering God's actions and one's identity in Him. The session concluded with a reflection on Martin Luther's stand, emphasizing the importance of relying on God's grace and avoiding the devil's tactic of dwelling on sin to hinder spiritual progress.#ephesians #biblestudy #reformedtheology #grace #salvationbygrace #christianliving #spiritualgrowth #godslove #discipleship #theology 09:00 - Grace, Blessing, and Adoption07:01 - God's Actions & Our Response11:04:50 - Mutual Respect & God's Image14:01 - God's Covenant: Restoration17:21 - Salvation: Earned or Received?20:43 - Earth & Christ's Kingdom24:00 - Sin, Sanctification & Luther37:19 - God's Actions and BeingPodcast:www.ReformedRookie.comPodcast: https://anchor.fm/reformedrookieFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheReformedRookie Twitter: https://twitter.com/NYapologistSemper Reformanda!
Restoring the Biblical Gender Roles in Marriage East of Eden Essential Church March 2, 2025 SUMMARY The Sermon discusses the roles of men and women within the context of marriage, drawing from biblical teachings and contemporary interpretations. Here are the key points: - **Introduction to Gender Roles**: The pastor introduces the topic of gender roles in marriage, acknowledging the complexity and sensitivity surrounding the subject. They emphasize the importance of understanding these roles through a biblical lens. - **Biblical Foundation**: The discussion begins with references to Genesis, highlighting that both men and women were created in the image of God and are equally tasked with fulfilling God's purposes. The pastor critiques common interpretations of the term "helper" in Genesis, arguing that it has been misrepresented in traditional teachings. - **Submission and Leadership**: The pastor explores the concept of submission, particularly in the context of marriage. They argue that submission should not be viewed as weakness but as a choice made in love, similar to how Jesus submitted to God the Father. The pastor emphasizes that both partners in a marriage are called to embody Christ-like qualities. - **Misunderstandings and Cultural Influences**: The pastor addresses the misunderstandings that arise from cultural norms and how they can distort biblical teachings on gender roles. They caution against applying marriage-specific roles to broader societal contexts. - **Practical Application**: The pastor encourages couples to reflect on their roles within their marriage, emphasizing mutual respect and service. They highlight that true leadership in marriage mirrors Christ's example of humility and service. - **Conclusion**: The sermon concludes with a call for both men and women to embrace their roles as modeled by Jesus, fostering a partnership that reflects God's design for marriage. DISCUSSION QUESTIONS 1. **Understanding Gender Roles**: - How do you interpret the biblical concept of "helper" in the context of marriage? Do you think it has been misrepresented in modern discussions? - In what ways can both men and women embody Christ-like qualities in their respective roles within a marriage? 2. **Submission and Leadership**: - What does submission mean to you in the context of a loving and respectful marriage? How can it be practiced without leading to feelings of inferiority? - How can men demonstrate leadership in a way that reflects humility and service, as modeled by Jesus? 3. **Cultural Influences**: - How do cultural norms and societal expectations shape your understanding of gender roles in marriage? Can you identify any personal biases that may influence your views? - In what ways can couples work together to redefine their roles in a manner that aligns with their values and beliefs, rather than societal expectations? 4. **Mutual Respect and Service**: - How can couples ensure that their relationship is built on mutual respect and service? What practical steps can be taken to foster this environment? - Reflect on a time when you felt your partner demonstrated Christ-like love and service. How did it impact your relationship? 5. **Addressing Challenges**: - What challenges do you think couples face when trying to live out biblical gender roles in today's society? How can they overcome these challenges?
Back Home, One week later.By FinalStand. Listen to the Podcast at Explicit Novels.There is something worse than waking up and not knowing where you are: you could wake up and not know who you are.Note: World Events Stuff ~ aka Why things are happening in Cáel's lifeThe phone was from Iskender. His boss, Oyuun Tömörbaatar (OT), the former UN ambassador from Kazakhstan and now the informal and unrecognized UN representative and chief diplomat of the Khanate to the same august body, wanted to talk with me, immediately. OT wasn't being diplomatic at the moment, that would come later.{Now this is going to get convoluted}Any inquiries to the Khanate that didn't also include immediate official recognition of the Khanate currently were being steered my (and Hana's) way. For all the behind closed doors crap, he had me, his loyal ass-monkey mutton-head. I held faint hope that this latest meeting would work out to my benefit. For the meeting, I traveled light, only Naomi (the Amazon) and Chaz (British SRR) watched over me.Now fathers who know me, hide their daughters. I'd earned my 'scoundrel' reputation. T. Sarangerel, OT's daughter, was in the room when Iskender ushered me in. She gave me an uncertain look, I shrugged and she smiled. It took me 3 nano seconds to figure that out, OT was scoping me out as a potential son-in-law. I was in Temujin's Inner Circle and a man who he trusted (a rarity). Any union with me would strengthen OT's clan's standing in the new regime.The genetic footprint Temujin, and his immediate family collectively, had put down in the 13th and 14th centuries CE today was vast. He needed that to make his plans for the internal reorganization of the Khanate work. The old republics would go away, to be replaced by a system akin to the Byzantine 'themes, the re-organization of regions based on the recruitment of the Tumens.The Khanate was aiming for an 'Autocratic Republic' ~ a term invented in the 19th century. My use of this terminology was based on my gut instinct, Alal's host of memories involving every form of governance, and my experience with human nature. That clued me in to what Temujin was up to, his Greater Plan. He wasn't going to form a false-front government. He was going to retain the decision-making powers and do so openly, thus 'Autocratic'.He also planned to have a bicameral legislative branch. The Upper House would be based in Tumens and bureaucratic leadership, intellectual standing, religious sects, and tribal entities. This body would be based on merit, not primogeniture. The Lower, main chamber, would be a democratically-elected assembly (aka a democratic republic) that advised him on policy matters, thus 'Republic'.All the power would remain in the Great Khan's hands and would be exercised by his genetic descendants (which some geneticists estimated as being as high as 25% of the Central Asian population.) Marrying into that extended family would be easy, the 'family' itself would have a vested interesting in supporting a state that benefited them.Men and women could exercise power in the government through marriage alliances, identical to the manner Hana was working through me. Being surrounded by very populous countries in various states of belligerence, empowering women wouldn't be an issue since every willing mind and pair of hands mattered. Outsiders who shone through could be offered a spouse and brought into the ruling elite since polygamy was permissible.In the Khanate there would be universal compulsive suffrage (everyone 18+ was legally required to vote) to decide on the representatives in the new legislative body. Everyone was expected to fight, so everyone voted. It would be modeled on the Duma of early 20th century Imperial Russia. Unlike the ill-fated Tsar Nicholas II, Temujin would be much more attentive to the voice of the people, in the Information Age, he had to.Or so I hoped. I spewed forth my ideas to OT who didn't agree, or disagree with my vision. Perhaps Temujin and I did share a bond that went beyond obligation. OT then pulled a 'Pamela'."He told me he knew immediately you were his brother when you and I shared that vision," he commented out of nowhere."His words: You (Earth and Sky) are the old. He (meaning me) is the new. He (me again) will show us the way." My, that was nice, obtuse and not at all helpful. What did OT want? My good buddy, the Great Khan, wanted to cash in on Hana's and my sudden popularity. His most pressing need remained 'time'. He needed to have a cease-fire in the wings when his offensive resumed the next day.The Earth and Sky had moved, well, the Heaven and Earth to get the Tumens and their accompanying national armies up and running after only a two day respite. Thanks to me, Manchuria was a mess. The Russians had carried out my 'Operation: Funhouse' with mixed, mostly positive results.Dozens of smaller Chinese military police units along the border went, 'inactive' was the term most often used in the media. They didn't disarm, yet they didn't fight the Russians either. They sat back and let events unfold. The issue wasn't the Chinese's willingness to fight and die for their country. It was the schizophrenic government in Beijing.The PRC didn't want to wage a war with the Russian Federation at that moment. The Khanate was the priority. There were two fundamentally incompatible courses of action favored for dealing with the Russians:One large group advocated a passive Option A: let the Russians step in and shield the three remaining provinces making up Manchuria that were still in Chinese possession. Later, China would use military, economic and political means to edge the Russians out, once the Khanate was dealt with.A sizable faction favored a more aggressive Option B: play a game of chicken with Vladimir Putin. Tell the Bear not to come across the border while threatening him with a bloody and pointless (for him) guerilla war if he did intervene. Events on the ground were not providing a lot of support for that school of thought,However, this split at the highest levels of leadership left the local and regional commanders to try and muddle through as best they could. To the local commanders defending the Amur River side of the Chinese-Russian border, common sense dictated that they not oppose the Russian crossings, because the Russian 35th Army would kill them.All their military units had gone west to the Nen River line. With no heavy weapons and little air support, the People's Armed Police (PAP) (paramilitary) and the Public Security Bureau (regular police) units would be wiped out for little gain.Russia's GRU (Military Intelligence) sweetened the pot by allowing the police units to remain armed and in formation. It could be argued that they weren't even committing treason. At any time, they could throw themselves into the battle, or form the core of a resistance movement. 'Conserving your strength' had been a hallmark of the Communist Chinese struggle against the Imperial Japanese and Nationalists forces from the 1920's until 1945 and it had served them well.For the party officials, civil authorities and the People's Liberation Army (PLA), Army Air Force (PLAAF), and Army Navy (PLAN) who had gone with Option B, things weren't working out. In the north of Heilongjiang province at Morin Dawa/the Nen River line, the regional commander of the ad hoc forces facing the Khanate decided to duke it out with the Russian 36th Army as well. He was boned from the get-go.The PLAAF's overall command and control had been badly disrupted in the first few hours of The Unification War and had never fully recovered. Of the 22 air regiments that the PLAAF had started the war with in the Shenyang Military District (NE China), only 5 remained as effective formations flying, on average, a meager 20% of their original complement of advanced Shenyang J-16's, J-11's, Chengdu J-10's and Xian JH-7's aircraft.Replacing their aircraft losses meant sending up aged Shenyang J-8's (rolled out in 1980) and Nanchang Q-5's (in 1970) to fly and die in droves fighting their technologically superior Khanate foes. To add insult to injury, China's fleet of 97 Su-30MKK/MK2's (built in Russia) had suffered numerous suspicious mechanical and electronic failures, rendering them either flying coffins, or space holders in bomb-proof shelters.Furthermore, of the forces arrayed in the far north, only two of the five air regiments were responding. Two of the other three had begun displacing south into the Beijing Military District and preparing to defend the capital city. The fifth formation had another problem, North Korea (, more on that later.)In opposition to those two Chinese air regiments (roughly 60 aircraft of mixed types) stood seven complete and fresh Russian air regiments (over 400 front-line aircraft) and that didn't include the regiment and elements of the Far East Naval Aviation which was ALSO watching North Korea (, again more on that later.) The latter was of small comfort to the forces trying to hold the already compromised Nen River line.Behind those valiant troops, along the much more defensible Amur River line, the commander of the key city of Heihe sided with the Option A group and let the Russian 35th Army cross the river unopposed. By the time the PLA commanding general of the 'Nen Force' (the 69th Motorized Division and the subordinate 7th Reserve Division) figured that out, he was already in a shooting war with the Russians. So his supply lines weren't in danger, they were lost.The final indignity took place at Zalantun. The commander of the 3rd Reserve Div. had died during the attempt to recapture Zalantun. His replacement died when his helicopter was shot down as he was coming to assume command. In the absence of these officers, the divisional chief of staff told his men, including two hastily hustled forward mechanized brigades, to put down their arms. That meant 'Nen Force' was completely cut-off and surrounded.One battalion of the 36th Russian Motorized Brigade (yes, too many 36's running around) disarmed the Chinese troops while the rest, plus the 74th Independent Motorized Brigade raced for the prize, the city of Qiqihar. The last major mechanized formation of the 36th Rus. Army, the 39th MB was following them. However, instead of manning Qiqihar's defenses, the Chinese garrison in that city was waging war on its own populace.It wasn't only in Qiqihar; chaos reigned throughout Heilongjiang province. The Provincial Head of the Communist Party, Wang Xiankui, supported Option A. The Provincial Governor, Lu Hao, went with Option B. Both figures were rising stars in the PRC. Wang had ordered the still forming Reserve Divisions and the PAP units to disperse, thus avoiding any untimely confrontations with the Russians.Lu, without consulting Wang, ordered the same forces to launch a violent crackdown on all dissident forces, specifically all racial minorities. (It turned out that Lu was also a member of the Seven Pillars and his witch-hunt was aimed at getting the Earth and Sky organization operating in Heilongjiang).For the men and women on the other end of those phone conversations, there was no 'right' answer. Lest we forget, their organizations were already degraded by the Anthrax outbreak. Both men were powerful and represented China's future leadership, so if the person in charge at the ground level obeyed the wrong one, they could be assured of being roasted by the other.Some did try to do both, repress and disband at the same time. That meant that in the process of making mass arrests among an already war-fearful and plague-fearful populace, the law enforcement infrastructure began disintegrating.The problem with Lu's/7P's plan was that there was no 'revolutionary' organization to round up. That wasn't how the Earth and Sky operated in North-East China. They remained in tiny sabotage and reconnaissance cells. While they were scurrying for cover from the police crackdown, an opportunity presented itself.The afflicted minorities were getting furious with their treatment. These minorities saw themselves as loyal Chinese, yet they were being dragged out into the streets, put in detentions centers and (in a few cases) summarily executed. Being less than 10% of the overall population, resistance had never crossed their minds. It seemed all that those defenseless people could do was pray for Russian intervention forces to arrive.Within that mix of fear, betrayal and rage, the E and S discovered a way to start the dominos falling. The small, well-armed and well-trained E and S cells began ambushing police detachments. Weapons from those dead men and women were turned over to the pissed off locals before the cell went off to stalk the next police unit.Wash, rinse and repeat. It became a perverse and bloody case of wish fulfillment. Lu and the 7P's had been looking for an insurrection and they started one. Even though a miniscule portion of the population was involved, from the outside looking in, it reinforced the Putin Public Affairs initiative that portrayed Putin (and his army) as coming in to restore order to a collapsing civil system, which he was helping disrupt.From Moscow, the PRC's indecisiveness looked like Manna from Heaven. For the massive numbers of Russian soldiers riding through the Manchurian countryside, it felt like they were rolling into Arkham Asylum. Unlike the NATO countries' professional armies, Russia remained a largely conscript force whose normal term of service was only one year. These unseasoned troops could never tell if the local military, military police and police would attack until they rolled up on the Chinese units.At the start of that Day One of Operation: Funhouse, the Russian ROE (Rules of Engagement) was 'Ask and Verify'. It was tactically advantageous for the belligerent Chinese forces to lie about their intentions, then begin shooting at the Russians when they got close enough to hurt them. By Day Two, the standard front-line Russian soldier had adjusted that ROE to 'if they look at us wrong, light their asses up'. By Day Three, the officers had stopped trying to enforce Moscow's ROE orders.That was fine for the combat and rear echelon support troops because both the Chinese and Russian governments had another series of problems and they all centered around Pyongyang and Kim Jong-un's declaration that North Korea would intervene as well, without letting anyone know who he was 'intervening' against. To keep everyone guessing, the North Korean' People's Army was massing on all three borders, facing off with the PRC, Russia and South Korea. To prove his diplomatic intentions, Kim pledged to only mobilize half of his reserves, merely 4,250,000 extra men and women to go with his 950,000 strong standing army.It didn't take a military, or economic genius to realize the North Korean's chronically 'near death' economy was stampeding off a cliff. The Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) was in the middle of an oil crisis and Kim was increasing their fuel consumption by 400% while decreasing his workforce by 10%. To put it in perspective, the US unemployment was around 6%. Now imagine that in one week's time it would become 26%. One week, no severance packages. Would the population become unsettled?But wait, it gets better. The Secret War was colliding with the Real World in more places than Manchuria. Setting aside the assassination attempt (Grrr) of Hana Sulkanen, my fiancée, six Nipponese elders (two women and four men) appeared in the personal quarters of the Japanese Prime Minister on the first full night of 'Funhouse' and relayed their urgent requests.Those six were the Head of the Six (formerly Seven) Ninja Families and they were there at, my urging. Cause I'm an idiot and requiring the deaths of Romanians in my personal crusade obviously wasn't enough. Now I was asking the Japanese Defense Forces (JDF) to pony up as well. So take a deep breath and put on the hip-waders.You might be wondering why I would want the JDF, see, there was part of Operation: Funhouse that was hitting a predictable snag, namely the Korea People's Navy Force (KPNF) and the uncertain determination of the PLAN:The KPNF's vessels were rather old, small and crappy. They also had a love affair with anything that could launch a torpedo and they listed over 700 of these floating deathtraps (only 13 of which could be classified as surface warships) and the fanatical crews to take them into battle.The PLAN's numbers were far more realistic and the fleet generally more modern. Only their North (18 surface warships) and East Fleets (22 plus 5 'elsewhere') could play any role in an upcoming FUBAR, and both fleets were heading out to sea, mainly to avoid the sporadic, but increasingly effective Khanate air strikes.The FU to be BAR'ed was the Russian Far East Fleet (RFEF) (6 warships strong, ) that had seized on this crazy idea (per my suggestion) to sail south, around the Korean peninsula so they could land elements of the 55th Guards Red Banner Marine Brigade (the 165th Marine Regiment and the 180th Marine Tank Battalion).Theoretically they were going to be the 'Southern Shielding Force' that would interpose itself between the Khanate and Beijing. It should surprise no one that the RFEF's flotilla was unequal to the task of taking their destination, the port of Qinhuangdao, by amphibious assault. Fortunately for the Gods of War (which did not include me), there were five other navies involved.Meanwhile, South Korea was having kittens because their always crazy northern kin were slathering on the insanity. (In how many Buddhist countries do people flock to the temples and pray that their neighbor attacks someone, anyone else, but them? That wasn't a religious conundrum I wanted to deal with.) N.Korea mobilizing meant S.Korea had to mobilize, which sucked down on their GNP as well.Besides, N.Korean dams and coal-powered plants kept the lights on in Seoul. Erring on the side of caution, the S. Korea (aka Republic of Korea, ROK) Army suggested calling up only one million of their three million person reserve force in order to assure Cousin Kim that this was a purely defensive gesture. It didn't work. Kim Jong-un castigated the ROK for antagonizing him, despite his declaration that he 'might' feel like invading the South in the immediate future.Into the emerging crisis, the ROK Navy could sortie nineteen small surface ships. Japan's Navy wasn't up to its old imperial standards, but could still deploy 45 surface warships. The 800 lb. gorilla in the room was the core of the 7th Fleet stationed at Yokosuka, Japan, the USS carrier George Washington and her 14 escort vessels.If the George Washington was the gorilla, RIMPAC 2014 was King Kong. 22 nations, 50 ships, including the USS carrier Ronald Reagan were engaged in war games in the Central Pacific. With them were 5 vessels of the PLAN, had Kim Jong-un just kept his mouth shut, this wouldn't have been an issue. Hell, if the Khanate had not come into existence and launched its Unification War, but he had and they did,To show the US was taking this escalation seriously (without tipping their hand that they knew about Funhouse, Carrier Strike Group One (CSG 1) (the Carl Vinson +10) was rushing across the Pacific from San Diego. CSG 3 (the John C. Stennis +2) was being assembled hastily so that they could rendezvous with CSG 1 ASAP. So many brave souls running toward the danger, sometimes I hate myself.So now does it make sense that I found myself in a room with a US Senator tasked with riding herd on me?Anyway, there were the other three navies still unaccounted for, Taiwan / the Republic of China (ROC) (22 surface ships), Vietnam (7) and the Philippines (3). Taiwanese involvement was easy to explain, the PRC refused to acknowledge them as an independent country and probably never would.The Vietnam People's Navy was tiny in both numbers and tonnage. Five of the vessels were 1960's Soviet frigates. What Vietnam did have was a huge grudge against the PRC. The PLA invaded Vietnam in 1979 and devastated the northernmost provinces, killing as many as 100,000 civilians.The PLAN had walloped the VPN in 1974 (technically South Vietnam) and again in 1988. Out in the South China Sea were two island archipelagos; the Paracel (occupied by a small PLA garrison and claimed by the PRC, Vietnam and the ROC) and Spratlys Islands (disputed by Brunei, Malaysia, Philippines, the PRC, the ROC, and Vietnam).The Philippines had a grand total of three frigates (all between 50 and 70 years old). 99% of the time, they faced a hopeless struggle enforcing Philippines' South China Sea claims, except they were now experiencing that 1% where the PRC found itself in a life and death struggle. Even then, the PLAN's South Sea Fleet was hands-down the biggest player with 26 surface warships centered on the Carrier Liaoning.Except (and there always seems to be an 'except') virtually all the PLAN's naval aviation had gone off to fight the Khanate and it wasn't coming back, ever. In the air, the Philippines was next to useless. What did they have of offer in the struggle for the South China Sea? Bases. The ROC and Vietnam had much more to bring to the table.The Vietnamese People's Liberation Air Force (VPLAR) had about 50 front-line aircraft and 175 nearly obsolete models ~ the same models the PLAAF was now piloting. The ROC Air Force could put up 325 almost-new fighters that were now superior to their opponents on the mainland. Why would I give a shit?Things cascade. The Khanate Air Force took a two-day long deep breath as Putin's 'Policeman that only looks like an invading army' started their intervention. Forty-eight hours later, the Khanate started the fourth stage (the first lunge, defeat the PLA's counter-attack then the second lunge) of the campaign.Their initial air power was still skating on thin ice where maintenance was concerned. They need more time to thoroughly rest their pilots and bring all their top-flight equipment to 100% working condition. Against them, in two days the PLAAF's assets increased by over 250 fighters.In turn, the Khanate had added their constituent state air forces plus nearly 80 new cutting edge air planes and 25 drones. Phase Four saw rolling airstrikes all along the forces massing in front of the northern and central Tumens. For a few hours, the PLA thought they knew what was going on.They were wrong and this was where my meeting with OT came in. Jab with the right, cut them down with the left. The left in my case was Tibet. Yeah, Tibet. Economic value = not nearly enough. From the very start of the war, a small number of seemingly inconsequential air strikes had seriously eroded the PLA and PLAAFs combat power in the Tibetan Plateau while leaving the roads, bridges and towns intact.Common military logic dictated that the Khanate had to punch their way further east into Qinghai (to the south) and Gansu (to the north) provinces. That was where the population and industry where. Farther east were even greater numbers of people and factories and the Khanate forces in the North hadn't been strong enough to threaten to cut off the Qinghai-Gansu front. Then the Russians showed up and the Khanate forces threatening that flank doubled overnight.The PLA hastily reinforced their northern flank, using troops from their strategic reserves. The move resulted in incredible attrition by airpower to the freshly equipped formations. The PLA was about to get flanked, but not from the north. Southwest of Qinghai was Tibet. A third of the Khanate's mobile forces now swept around in a huge left haymaker to the south.My job? I needed the 'Free Tibet' forces in the US and UK to provide public and moral support to the Khanate move. As Khanate Special Forces seized crucial bottlenecks in Tibet, they needed the locals to keep their 'liberators' informed of PLA presences and undermine any attempt to create a guerilla movement.The five Tumens dedicated to being the Schwerpunkt (point of maximum effort) of this flanking maneuver were going to be on a tight timetable if they were going to surround the PLA forces in Central China.My plan was to convince the Tibetans that the PRC's 55 years of occupation was coming to an end and the Great Khan wanted to sign a 'Treaty of Mutual Respect' (my invention). This would require both the Khanate and Tibet to recognize each other's right to exist the moment a cease-fire was reached. That was it. No 'armed presence', or 'mutual defense' agreements.The treaty would be formally signed in Lhasa, the Tibetan capital, when the city was safe ~ as determined by the Central Tibetan Administration (the Tibetan Government in Exile, CTA). Riki came up with an additional sweetener and proved she was quickly adjusting to our group's extra-governmental capabilities.
At the Marcus Autism Center, Dr. Kathleen Edmier, BCBA, and Karen Guerra, SLP, work together to bridge the gap between their fields, demonstrating the power of collaboration in supporting individuals with autism. Their work showcases how speech-language pathologists (SLPs) and board-certified behavior analysts (BCBAs) can align their approaches to maximize positive outcomes.For professionals looking to collaborate, the key lies in relationship building and mutual respect. Shifting from a multidisciplinary to an interdisciplinary model allows for deeper integration of tools and strategies, creating a unified approach to intervention. This partnership also enhances the generalization of procedures and plans, ensuring that individuals and their families receive cohesive and effective support.One of the most impactful areas of collaboration is in addressing complex topics such as verbal imitation and augmentative and alternative communication (AAC). Despite differences in terminology, both disciplines focus on developing essential social skills. Open dialogue between professionals helps them recognize shared goals and complementary strategies, fostering a more effective and comprehensive support system.For SLPs and BCBAs, embracing collaboration means building a synergistic approach that enhances family support. Prioritizing understanding, flexibility, and mutual respect creates a stronger network of care. By adopting the mindset of "having grace for one another," professionals can work together to drive meaningful progress and improve outcomes for those they serve.#autism #speectherapyWhat's Inside:Bridging SLP-BCBA CollaborationInterdisciplinary vs. Multidisciplinary WorkAligning Goals and StrategiesCollaborating on hot button topics in the field.

This month, I reflect on a unique and transformative experience that took me out of my comfort zone: a salmon fishing retreat on a remote river in my home province of Newfoundland and Labrador. Joined by five incredible individuals— Andrew, Enrique, Geoff, Mark, and Pete —we embraced the opportunity to disconnect from our usual routines and engage deeply with one another. Despite the low water levels limiting our fishing time, we made the most of our days by engaging in profound conversations that touched on everything from politics and religion to social issues like homelessness. It was an eye-opening experience that highlighted the power of authentic, values-driven dialogue among highly accomplished individuals. Listen in as I share the lessons and insights gleaned from this retreat, emphasizing the importance of open and respectful communication even on potentially contentious topics. These five days were a testament to the enriching power of genuine human connections. This episode is not just about the retreat but also about how such experiences can foster personal growth, build strong relationships, and reinforce the core values that drive effective leadership. What You'll Learn: • The immense value of authentic human connection. • The importance of disconnecting to reconnect with our core values. • How to have constructive conflict and mutual respect, even on contentious topics. • Balancing passion with humility: The key ingredients to an engaging conversation and personal growth. • The power of community and diverse perspectives.

In this episode, we dive into the complexities of the often-hidden, manipulative aspects of goodness and niceness within relationships. While these traits are typically seen as virtuous, they can sometimes stem from low self-worth and a deep need for validation, ultimately breeding mistrust. We explore the dynamics of people-pleasing, its connection to resentment, and the critical importance of setting healthy boundaries to disrupt patterns that impede personal growth and authentic connection. Additionally, we examine codependency and how it distorts our understanding of love and support. Tune in for a thought-provoking discussion on recognizing your own relational patterns, the societal impact of perceived goodness, and ways to cultivate healthier, more genuine relationships rooted in mutual respect.

Grandpa Bill talks Memory-Conscious Connection: Beyond the Smile, a Deep Dive Conscious connection goes far beyond the smile that arises during meditation. It's a multifaceted concept encompassing various aspects of our being: 1. Deepened Empathy and Authenticity: Conscious connection involves an intentional effort to connect with others on a deeper level. This requires empathy, the ability to understand and share the feelings of another person. By actively listening and being present, we foster a space for genuine connection. Authenticity, being true to oneself, plays a crucial role. When we show up authentically, we create a foundation for trust and vulnerability, allowing for a more meaningful connection. 2. Shared Values and Purpose: Conscious connection thrives when there's a sense of shared values or purpose. This could be a passion for a cause, a common interest, or simply a shared understanding of what matters in life. Identifying these commonalities helps us feel understood and connected. 3. Mutual Respect and Support: Respect for another person's thoughts, feelings, and boundaries is essential for fostering conscious connection. This includes active listening, avoiding judgment, and offering support when needed. Conscious connection isn't one-sided. It's a reciprocal exchange where both individuals feel seen, heard, and valued. 4. Vulnerability and Trust: Conscious connection requires a degree of vulnerability. We need to be open to sharing our true selves with others. This vulnerability allows trust to blossom, creating a safe space for deeper levels of connection. 5. Beyond Interpersonal Connections: Conscious connection isn't just about connecting with others. It's also about connecting with ourselves. This involves mindfulness, being present in the moment without judgment. It includes understanding our own thoughts, emotions, and needs. The Benefits of Conscious Connection: By cultivating conscious connection, we reap numerous benefits: Increased happiness and well-being: Strong social connections are essential for a fulfilling life. Reduced stress and anxiety: Feeling supported and understood by others can significantly reduce stress. Enhanced emotional intelligence: By connecting with others, we learn to better understand and manage our own emotions. Stronger communities: Conscious connection fosters empathy and understanding, leading to stronger and more supportive communities. How to Cultivate Conscious Connection: Practice mindful communication: Pay attention to both verbal and nonverbal cues. Listen actively and be present in the moment. Express appreciation: Let others know you care. Gratitude fosters connection. Engage in shared activities: Find common ground and participate in activities you both enjoy. Be open and honest: Share your thoughts and feelings authentically. Practice empathy: Put yourself in another person's shoes and try to understand their perspective. Conscious connection is a journey, not a destination. It requires effort, but the rewards are profound. By nurturing these connections, we create a more fulfilling and meaningful life for ourselves and those around us. Close your eyes and take a few deep breaths. Feel the cool air fill your lungs and the rise and fall of your chest with each inhale and exhale. Now, gently shift your focus inward. Can you feel the steady rhythm of your heartbeat? Thump. Thump. Thump. That steady beat is a powerful force within you. It's the drumbeat of life, the constant reminder of your strength and resilience. With each beat, feel a surge of energy course through you. It's not the frantic energy of fight-or-flight, but a calm, determined power. This energy is yours to harness. As you feel your heartbeat, imagine it pushing out the tightness and tension of stress. With each thump, visualize a bit of worry or anxiety dissolving away. Feel your muscles relax, your shoulders soften, your breath slow and deepen. Now, with each beat, feel a seed of gratitude take root. Imagine it growing stronger with every thump, nourished by the energy you've claimed from stress. Think of something you're grateful for, big or small. It could be the warmth of the sun on your skin, the love of a family member, or the simple beauty of a flower. As you focus on this gratitude, feel it blossom within you. Let it fill your heart with warmth and appreciation. Thump. Thankful. Thump. Thankful. With each beat, your gratitude grows stronger, pushing out any lingering stress and replacing it with a sense of peace and well-being. Open your eyes gently, carrying this newfound energy and gratitude with you. Remember, the power to navigate stress and cultivate gratitude lies within you, pulsing with every beat of your heart. Feel your heartbeat create the energy to leave stress and get to gratitude --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/bhsales/message

Trauma is Expensive© Counting the Cost, and Making the Change!
Sometimes, the hardest choices bring the most liberating rewards. Join me, Micah Bravery, as I share a deeply personal and transformative decision—ending a toxic friendship. It's a journey that may seem counterintuitive for a mental health advocate, but it's one that spotlights the imperative of self-love and the necessity for mutual support in our connections. In a candid exploration of resilience, I dismantle the guilt and self-doubt that often accompany such difficult decisions and reveal how they pave the way for profound self-discovery and peace.Navigating the turbulent waters of trauma and prioritizing self-care can often feel like a solitary voyage, but it needn't be. Throughout this episode, I present not as a healer, but as a facilitator to encourage personal growth, emphasizing the importance of seeking professional help and the critical distinction between advocacy and assuming responsibility for others' emotional state. As we say farewell in this final chapter, I leave you with a powerful mantra: 'Count the cost and make the change.' It's a heartfelt invitation to join me in recognizing the impact of trauma and engaging in the healing process, because while the journey may indeed have its costs, the destination of personal transformation is priceless.#selflove #mentalhealth #traumarecovery #healingjourney #selfcare #personaltransformation #growth #endtoxicrelationships #professionalhelp #advocacy #emotionalresponsibility #TraumaIsExpensive #TheseFukkenFeelingsPodcast
