Welcome to this week's Indie Artist Music Hustle with Blonde Intelligence. I am your host, Ms. Roni, and I always seek to give you exquisite cranial repertoire. Maxx Osama takes us behind the curtain of his dual life as both a culinary creator and musical artist in this captivating episode of Indie Artist Music Hustle. The Tennessee-based independent musician opens up about how his early passion for poetry evolved into hip-hop artistry, creating a foundation for authentic storytelling that defines his sound today."I cook on beats and I cook in restaurants," Maxx shares with refreshing candor, explaining how he balances his day job at a buffet-style restaurant with his true calling as a musician. With over 100 professional releases under his belt, his prolific output comes from a place of genuine creative urgency – often recording two to three tracks daily when inspiration strikes.The conversation dives deep into the evolving landscape of hip-hop, where Maxx navigates the delicate balance between lyrical complexity and mainstream appeal. He thoughtfully addresses how today's music industry often feels "more like a popularity contest than a talent contest," yet remains committed to versatility without compromising his artistic integrity. His recent singles "Third Degree" and "My Story" showcase this adaptability, with the latter evolving into an ongoing series born from personal loss and emotional expression.What stands out most is Maxx's global perspective on artistic collaboration. Having worked with producers and artists from Australia, the UK, and across the United States, he embraces the borderless nature of modern music creation. His involvement in "The Heist" – an ambitious project bringing together 20 artists through Shadow Works Entertainment – demonstrates his commitment to community and creative partnership.Whether discussing the challenges of capturing audience attention in the first few seconds of a track, the implications of AI in music production, or the authenticity behind rap beefs, Maxx offers nuanced insights that will resonate with creators and music lovers alike. Search "Maxx Osama" on any streaming platform to experience his music, and reach out for collaborations regardless of genre or geography – this is an artist genuinely open to connection and creative exchange.Support the show

Healing from the impact of loss is truly a journey. There is no destination when it comes to grief. Every experience is unique because of our individual circumstances.

A Walt Disney World vacation is all about magic, memories and—let's not forget—a lot of walking. From early morning rope drop, to unpredictable weather and evenings filled with fireworks, packing smart can make a big difference. That's where a capsule wardrobe comes in: a capsule wardrobe is a thoughtful collection of versatile, mix-and-match pieces that let you travel light without sacrificing comfort or style.At 1923 Main Street, we design a collection of subtle Disney-inspired apparel for travelers who love the magic, but who want to keep things stylish without too much effort. Here's how to build the perfect capsule wardrobe for your next Disney vacation—whether it's a short hop of three days, or a full week's vacation.What is a Capsule Wardrobe—and Why is it Perfect for Disney Vacations?A capsule wardrobe is a small, intentional collection of clothing that can be mixed and matched in multiple ways. The goal of a capsule wardrobe is to have fewer items, but be able to create more outfits. A capsule wardrobe is all about efficiency and planning for your destination.For Disney vacations, this approach is especially helpful because it has several benefits:Less and Lighter luggage: Save your luggage space for Disney souvenirs and skip the checked baggage fees.Less Outfit Stress: Spend your time choosing your next ride or snack and not stressing over which outfit to wear.Know that You're Ready for anything: From rain to heat to chilly indoor dining, your smart layers strategy will have you covered.The Core Items for a Disney Capsule Wardrobe: Three to Five Essential PiecesStart with a few versatile basics that can be worn in multiple combinations:Two to three graphic tees – Soft, lightweight and breathable tees with a touch of personality are a perfect choice. Our castle shadow t-shirt This is My Story is a popular tee for this reason: it pairs well with anything.A neutral tank or tee – add versatility with a neutral colored lightweight tank or t-shirt that will go with any outfit and is great for layering.One pair of comfortable shorts – Think neutral tones like khaki or soft denim.One pair of casual pants, leggings or joggers – Ideal for cooler nights or travel days. A layering piece – A hoodie or crewneck sweatshirt with a subtle Disney touch is a must-have.One versatile dress or romper (optional) – Easy to dress up or down for a nice dinner or character dining.How to Choose the Right Graphic Tees and LayersYour Disney wardrobe doesn't have to scream characters or anything else. Subtle, well-designed graphic tees (our speciality at 1923 Main Street) make your outfit park-appropriate and stylish beyond the castle gates.When choosing tees and sweatshirts:Go for soft neutrals: Grey, navy and lighter soft colors mix easily.Think theme: Match your tee to your park day. Planning to explore Animal Kingdom? Try our Animal Kingdom Coffee Co. hoodie as an outer layer.Layer intentionally: Florida mornings can be cool at many times of the year and indoor rides and Disney buses are almost always chilly. Bring a sweatshirt or hoodie that you can wear every day if needed.Sample Packing Lists for Any Disney World VacationHere's how to build your capsule wardrobe depending on the length of your trip:Three-Day Getaway Disney Weekend or Short Hop2 graphic tees1 pair of shorts1 pair of joggers/casual pants/leggings1 layering piece1 pair of sneakersSwimsuitMix Example: Day 1: Tee 1 + shorts Day 2: Tee 2 + joggers/casual pants/leggings Day 3: Tee 1 + joggers + sweatshirtFive-Day Disney Vacation3 graphic tees1 pair of shorts1 pair of joggers/casual pants/leggings1 layering piece1 casual dress or skirt1 pair of sneakers, 1 pair of sandalsSwimsuitMix Example: Rotate tees with different bottoms and layer as needed. Use the dress for a character meal or night out at Disney Springs.Seven-Day Weeklong Disney Vacation4 graphic tees2 bottoms (shorts + joggers/casual pants/leggings or skirt)1 layering piece1 casual dress2 pairs of shoes (sneakers + sandals or slip-ons)Swimsuit (or two)Add a small laundry pack for in-room washing, or better still, use your resort laundry (they all have them) to refresh your clothing mid-week.Final Tips for a Magical (and Minimal) SuitcaseStick to a color palette so everything coordinates well.Pack for layering, not bulk.Wear your bulkiest items on the plane to save space.Roll your clothes instead of folding—you'll get more space and fewer wrinkles.With a well-planned Disney vacation capsule wardrobe, you'll spend less time thinking about what to wear and more time soaking up the magic.Roam Freely.

Send us a textWelcome back to Disrupting Obesity, and the 100th episode of this podcast! Today I'm sharing the story behind the story. What really happened when I got sick, what I remember, what I don't, and why I knew I had to do something with my second chance. I talk about the physical toll of being in the hospital for five months, what it felt like to be separated from my kids, and how this whole podcast started from a need to help, because I didn't see anyone else saying the things I needed to hear when I weighed 338 pounds. Tune into this one to hear more about:• What necrotizing pancreatitis is, and why it nearly killed me.• How a pioneering doctor saved my life, and why I remember every second.• Why obesity made everything harder, and what people don't talk about.• The raw emotional pain of missing my kids while fighting to stay alive.• The mindset that got me through recovery and helped me keep going.• What happened when I released episode 21 from a hospital bed.• How I went from 400 followers to 205,000, and why I still won't run ads.• Why connection matters more than anything, and how the Flamingo Forum brought it back.This episode is about turning unimaginable pain into purpose, and reminding you that no matter how far you feel from your goal, it's not too late. So keep trying, keep tracking, don't be intimidated and don't give up. You've totally got this.Episode Mentioned:Episode 21Looking for help on your weight loss journey?

He discusses his experiences with ex-gay ministries, the struggles he faced with family acceptance, and his eventual transition away from those beliefs. John reflects on his current views on faith, sexuality, and the importance of community support, emphasizing the need for authenticity and personal growth.From John J. Smid:I was born in July of 1954. Throughout my life I have lived through the mantra, “How can things be better?” As I continue to ask that question, my life has gone through several quite impactful life transitions.I have been married three times. I have two children and four grandchildren from my first marriage. Each marriage was a classroom of life for me through which I grew more aware each time that being a gay man wasn't always easy to embrace.I spent over 25 years trying to suppress my natural sexuality in order to please God and my then, religious beliefs. 22 of those years I was deeply entrenched in the Evangelical ExGay movement. I was the Executive Director for Love In Action, a residential ExGay ministry and a board member for eleven of those years with Exodus International, a worldwide coalition of ExGay ministries.I resigned from Love in Action in 2008 and at that time began a search for what was really true for me and my religious beliefs. I've spent these last 17 years working to make amends whenever possible for the messages I taught and the impact they had on hundreds of people very personally. Through personal reconnections with program clients and speaking out I hope I am at least making a dent in the harm done.After 24 years in my second marriage, I finally grew the courage to answer that life question once again. For life to be better I needed to fully embrace my homosexuality and life a more authentic life.Today, I am married to my husband Larry. We spend most of our time managing our acreage in central Arkansas and our little Airbnb cabin. We have a wonderful LGBTQ+ community here and are very active socially with our friends.Website:http://www.johnjsmid.comJohn's book: https://johnjsmid.com/exd-out-2/Contact via email: js@johnjsmid.comTo contact Wilkinson: BecomingW

John Moe joins us as we start recording and releasing new episodes in 2025 after an extended break over the winter. Maybe we are rusty, but we really take the whole "don't want to know you ahead of time" thing to an extreme with John, which he handles well. John Moe is a Twin Cities-based podcast maker, author, public speaker, and mental health advocate. He created and currently hosts the podcasts Depresh Mode with John Moe (LA Press Club Award) and Sleeping with Celebrities on the Maximum Fun network and he has created and produced podcasts for clients including the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI), the American Psychiatric Association, Whitman College (two higher ed marketing awards), and University of Puget Sound. Moe has hosted three national public radio programs, Wits, Marketplace Tech, and Weekend America, and he created and hosted the groundbreaking podcast, The Hilarious World of Depression (Webby Award). His writing has appeared in numerous publications, including The New York Times Magazine and McSweeney's. He is the author of four books, including the WSJ bestseller, The Hilarious World of Depression. Moe has delivered speeches on mental health all over the country.The Hilarious World of Depression was launched in late 2016 and was an instant success, quickly reaching the number two spot on the Apple Podcasts chart, garnering millions of downloads, and receiving widespread press coverage. It was based on the idea that depression is a lot more common than people realize, especially among celebrities and entertainers like comedians and musicians, and that open conversations on this often taboo topic could be a healing experience. The show won the Webby Award for Best Comedy Podcast in 2017 and led to a critically-acclaimed bestselling book of the same name in 2020.Our Whitman, My Story was conceived in collaboration with the communications staff at Whitman College in Walla Walla, Washington. The small school had a challenge: how to attract applicants from around the world and how to get admitted students to actually enroll. The unhosted podcast series featured profiles of a diverse group of students, the kind of people who could be friends once a student arrived on campus. The podcast, which was renewed for a second season, won the CASE Circle of Excellence Award and the Educational Advertising Award. The success of the Whitman series led to another podcast at the University of Puget Sound featuring students, faculty, and alums as part of the school's capital campaign. Depresh Mode with John Moe is a mental health interview podcast program produced in conjunction with Maximum Fun, an employee-owned co-op podcast network. Drawing on his extensive connections in the entertainment industry, John Moe has interviewed celebrities such as Jamie Lee Curtis, Patton Oswalt, and David Sedaris and won an...

What happens when you lose your voice — not just for a day, but for months? In this deeply personal solo episode, I share my one year update on a journey through muscular tension dysphonia, a condition that silenced me (yes, completely!) and forced me to face stress, identity, and balance in a whole new way. This is not just a story about losing your voice — it's about what happens when your body finally says: Enough. If you've ever felt like you're carrying too much — stress in your body, fear in your mind, or the weight of “what if I never get better?” — this episode is for you.

My Story pt6. Just because we leave a traumatic relationship, situation, or toxic cycle doesn't mean we then have the capacity to remain free from it. On this episode, I share what my life was like after I had left the trauma bonded relationship (the first time). That by leaving, it then created the space for my supressed pain to finally be felt so I could get free from internal suffering... but, I didn't actually have the capacity to be with that discomfort and feel it. This was the period of my life where I was in full swing of operating off my shadows. Doing anything I could to distract myself from my pain, and as a result, it lead me right back to what I had left. Key Takeaways: Gaining a relationship with your darkness, your internal world, is a direct link to you being able to maintain freedom from internal suffering. People show you who they are early, and you need to believe them. When your story is messy, let it be what it is. Let it be messy. If you're unable to be with discomfort, the likelihood of you choosing dynamics that perpetuates past trauma is very high. How you show up in daily life is a mirror to how you relate to your darkness. Distraction, escapism, avoiding, and numbing are protective mechanisms from feeling emotional pain. Your shadows are not innately bad. https://creatinglight.co Try a somatic activated healing class for free, here!

After 10 years, I no longer have an IBS diagnosis or any correlating symptoms. Learn my top 10 lessons I learned in 10 years of healing.---10 years ago, in the spring of 2015, my own, personal sickness journey began with unexplained and sudden nighttime insomnia.At the time, I had NO idea that this seemingly small but annoying symptom was the beginning of a massive decline in my health that would not be slowed or corrected no matter what advice I followed, who I talked to, or how much money I spent. Now - 10 years later - I have NONE of the original symptoms or diagnosis of IBS, insomnia, or constipation that I started with in 2015. And not only that, but my entire life is changed. My career is changed, my lifestyle is changed, and my mental and physical health is better than it had been my entire childhood.So, to celebrate my 10 year anniversary of becoming (and undoing) being sick, I've gathered my Top 10 Lessons from 10 years of struggling, succeeding, and failing my way through IBS and into complete, whole body healing.Whether you're in the beginning of your own healing journey or have been in this journey for 5, 10, 20, or 30+ years, I hope these 10 lessons bring you hope, insight, tears, and catharsis of how healing is not a straightforward journey, but if you keep honest and true to your values and needs, you WILL find the healing you're looking for.TIMESTAMPS:00:00 - My 10-Year Healing Journey Begins01:25 - Welcome to the Better Belly Podcast02:30 - Unexpected Changes and Realizations05:12 - Top 10 Lessons from a Decade of Healing06:25 - Lesson 1: Healing Comes from Where You Least Expect It14:56 - Lesson 2: Your Body Will Guide You to Your Next Healing24:20 - Lesson 3: Your Symptoms Are Not the Enemy27:31 - Lesson 4: Healthcare Providers Aren't Immune to Health Issues28:27 - Overcoming Health Imperfections30:30 - The Journey to Healing32:15 - Addressing Multiple Health Issues33:32 - The BetterBelly Blueprint34:24 - Working Through Health Layers37:56 - Staying Curious and Finding Good Healers47:36 - Bonus Lesson: Unique Healing Practices51:13 - Final Thoughts and EncouragementEPISODES MENTIONED:1// My Story & How I Healed Myself from IBS90// Fascia 101: The Hidden Force Behind Bloating and Constipation36// How to Choose The Best Chiropractor with Dr. Zach Simkins and Dr. Tygue Arvidson228// My Top 5 Best and Worst Health Investments56// What I've Been Doing in My Health Since My Miscarriage + Registration is OPEN!!73// Surprise – I'm Pregnant!!

Affirm: "There is nothing to heal, only God to reveal." (Ernest Holmes)Then light a candle and pray to God, knowing there's only God-- "O Blessed Lord, and my beloved Mother, Mary, accept this burning candle as a sign of my faith and love for you.Like this candle, I am ready to be used in Your service,without asking why and to what purpose.Even as this candle,I wish to stand in Your presence to be consumed in the light and warmth of Your love.Please hear my prayer and,if it is Your will,grant my petition.Above all,make me loyal and faithful to You in all circumstances of my life.AMEN" Every time I light a candle,I feel like I'm lighting myself. I can feel my halo. I can feel a fire around my heart.I can feel the fire in your spirit.Don't let anyone put it out today. Stay focused. Stay surrendered by saying, "Jesus, you take care of it."And watch Him do it!Won't He do it?! Love did it. I Love you,niknikki@curlynikki.comPlease support the show:▶▶https://www.patreon.com/goodmornings▶▶ Cash App $NikWalton __________________________________________Surrender Novena Day 3 - Father Dolindo "How many things I do when the soul, in so much spiritual and material need, turns to me, looks at me and says to me; "You take care of it", then closes its eyes and rests. In pain you pray for me to act, but that I act in the way you want. You do not turn to me, instead, you want me to adapt your ideas. You are not sick people who ask the doctor to cure you, but rather sick people who tell the doctor how to. So do not act this way, but pray as I taught you in the our Father: "Hallowed be thy Name", that is, be glorified in my need. "Thy kingdom come", that is, let all that is in us and in the world be in accord with your kingdom. "Thy will be done on Earth as it is in Heaven", that is, in our need, decide as you see fit for our temporal and eternal life. If you say to me truly: "Thy will be done", which is the same as saying: "You take care of it", I will intervene with all my omnipotence, and I will resolve the most difficult situations.O Jesus, I surrender myself to you, take care of everything! (10 times)Mother, I am yours now and forever. Through you and with you I always want to belong completely to Jesus.Amen""GOD DID IT. That's MY STORY. God has done it." - @Angelittle
