In this episode of The Tech Leader's Playbook, Avetis Antaplyan sits down with Radhika Dutt—MIT-trained engineer, entrepreneur, and author of Radical Product Thinking, to rethink how high-growth companies set direction and measure progress. Radhika explains why traditional goal systems (KPIs/OKRs) often incentivize “performance theater,” tracing their lineage from Drucker's MBOs to Andy Grove to today's playbooks—and why they're mismatched to modern, creative work. She introduces OHLs (Objectives, Hypotheses, Learnings) and a “puzzle setting/puzzle solving” culture that pushes teams to interrogate bad numbers, not hide them. Along the way she names common “product diseases” (HERO syndrome, obsessive sales disorder, pivotitis, strategic swelling, Narcissus complex) and shows how a clear, testable vision prevents whiplash pivots. A standout case study: at Signal Ocean, reframing the challenge for tech-averse users helped double sales in 2024 and again in 2025 while reducing churn from 26% to 4%. Leaders also get a practical script for better reviews (“How well is it working? What did we learn? What will we try next?”) and a reminder to build experimentation muscles before a crisis. The result is a rigorous, human approach to strategy that replaces vanity metrics with compounding learning.TakeawaysOKRs often reward optics over insight, encouraging “performance theater.”Use a concrete vision that states the problem, audience, status quo, desired end state, and product's role.Shift from “hit the target” to puzzle setting so teams feel invited to solve the right problems.Run on OHLs: Objectives, Hypotheses, Learnings to measure deeply and learn publicly.Watch for “product diseases” like HERO syndrome, obsessive sales disorder, pivotitis, strategic swelling, and the Narcissus complex.Pivot with gravitas by stating what was wrong, what you learned, and what you'll try next.Case study: at Signal Ocean, reframing for tech-averse users unlocked adoption, doubled sales year over year, and reduced churn.OKRs trace back to MBOs, which fit repetitive work but struggle with today's creative, uncertain problems.Leaders should act like detectives, not judges to create psychological safety for honest learning.Introduce OHLs inside your current cadence before replacing existing processes.Spread market insight beyond the founder so teams can challenge assumptions and stay aligned.Start with the segment that has the most urgent need, then expand intentionally.Chapters00:00 Intro & Why Targets Mislead01:27 Radhika's Path and Early Lessons03:41 Hitting Numbers vs. Reality on the Ground05:31 “Product Diseases” That Derail Strategy07:51 Writing a Vision You Can Execute09:49 The Wine Startup Example and Narcissus Complex13:07 Pivotitis and How to Pivot with Gravitas16:34 Translating Vision into Actionable Experiments17:44 Why Goals Alone Don't Work20:03 A Short History of OKRs and Their Limits24:43 From Targets to Puzzles: Reframing Stalled Sales26:50 OHLs: Objectives, Hypotheses, Learnings29:14 Running Better Reviews: Three Questions35:31 Case Study: Signal Ocean's Tech-Averse Users39:55 Outcomes: Doubling Sales and Reducing Churn41:58 Intel's Lesson: Experimentation Beats Goal Mechanics47:58 Detectives, Not Judges: Building a Learning Culture50:06 How to Start Tomorrow with OHLs59:37 Don't Do Founder Mode; Spread Insight01:03:18 Closing Notes & ResourcesRadhika Dutt's Social Media Links:https://www.linkedin.com/in/radhika-dutt/Radhika Dutt's Websites:https://www.radicalproduct.com/https://rdutt.com/Resources and Links:https://www.hireclout.comhttps://www.podcast.hireclout.comhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/hirefasthireright
En embedsmand på vej mod toppen ender som livstidsfange. Christian Birch er på nippet til at blive finansminister, men hans liv vælter, da spillegæld, forfalskede obligationer og misbrug af statskassen indhenter ham. Det hele starter med en bryllupsgæld, et lotteri – og en brand, der opsluger alt, hvad han ejer. Snart står han i centrum for en af Danmarks største korruptionsskandaler, dømt til vanære og fængsel på livstid. Christian Birchs sag bliver et vendepunkt. Den lægger grundstenen til en ny embedskultur, hvor tillid og ansvarlighed er kerneværdier. Derfor fremhæves Danmark i dag som et af de mindst korrupte lande i verden – netop fordi erfaringerne fra 1800-tallet viser, hvor ødelæggende korruption er for både statens magt og borgernes tillid. Birchs fald bliver dermed ikke kun en personlig tragedie, men en milepæl i opbygningen af det embedsmandsideal, vi stadig lever med i dag.

With over 89 cultivars of daffodil, the Backhouse Rossie Estate in Fife, Scotland, holds the only scientific collection of Narcissus in the world. The family's work revolutionised daffodil breeding in the 19th and early 20th century and inspired the Backhouse Heritage Daffodil Collection. Continuing to preserve and celebrate daffodils at the estate, including a registered collection of spring flowering Narcissus with Plant Heritage, direct descendent of the Backhouse family, Caroline Thomson brings to light the history of the Backhouse daffodils.

I denne første podcast-udgave af serien Bag om Københavnerhistorikerne kan du møde historiker og professor Ulrik Langen, der finder 1700-tallet både fremmedartet og genkendeligt. Det fascinerer ham, og han fortæller bl.a. i podcasten om, hvordan det er en tid med store følelser, store kjoler og en gryende forestilling om, at mennesker har rettigheder, blot fordi de er mennesker. Han deler desuden en godbid fra en af sine egne bøger og beskriver, hvordan fortidens kildemateriale ofte giver særdeles brugbare oplysninger om hverdagslivet, selvom det er noget andet, de egentlig behandler i fx vidneudsagn. Bag om Københavnerhistorikerne er et møde med de mennesker, der skriver om eller i København. Fælles for dem er, at de er historiefortællere: Det er dem, der undersøger og skaber de fortællinger om København, som vi bruger til at blive klogere på byen og dens lange og mangesidede historie.

Københavnerne får sig virkelig én på opleveren – og de elsker det! Måske lige med undtagelse af de mere konservative af slagsen – det dér italienske døgnflue-hysteri – det er altså langt ude – byens damer samler endda på lokker af tenorernes hår! Hvad er nu DET for noget! Kontrasten til de danske sangere er også enorm – som én af gadens, ganske vidst velsyngende, visekællinger – mod en konservatorieuddannet sopran. Sangerne synger måske ikke altid lige rent – det forstår man nu godt, der er jo ikke ligefrem vant til at synge i temperaturer nær frysepunktet – alligevel er flere anmeldere begejstrede for sangernes: "... helt utrolige dramatiske optræden og fremhæver en energi og mimik og troværdighed i rollerne, som gør det nemt at følge handlingen, selv om kun få forstår et ord." --- "De frysende tilskuere kan gå hjem i en rus af ny, spændende musik og frem for alt af en helt ny form for musikteater, som de aldrig har set og hørt magen til. Det Kgl. Teaters sangere har fået en alvorlig konkurrent." (Ramaskrig!

One day, Narcissus caught sight of his own reflection and thought, “Finally—someone who gets me.” Fast forward a few millennia, and Donald Trump, in a moment of mythological cosplay, gazed into the Capitol Reflecting Pool and saw not the dome of democracy, but the shimmering image of his own magnificence. And like his ancient counterpart, he was utterly transfixed.So in June 2025, to mark his 79th birthday—and presumably the anniversary of his divine self-recognition—he staged a taxpayer-funded spectacle featuring tanks, fighter jets, and enough red-white-and-bluster to make a banana republic blush. Price tag? $45 million. Purpose? Self-admiration. Subtext? “I am the state.”Today's guest is here to help us decode the psychological machinery behind this kind of political theater. Dr. Jocelyn Sze is an Assistant Clinical Professor at the University of California, a trauma psychologist specializing in narcissistic abuse, and and a board member of Bay Area Trauma Recovery Clinical Services and the McCune Foundation which supports grassroots organizations that empower and mobilize excluded populations. Her work bridges the personal and the political—helping individuals heal from manipulation while exposing how those same tactics play out on the national stage.In her recent Huffington Post article, “I'm A Psychologist Who Specializes In Narcissists. Here's What We Need To Do To Stop Trump,” Dr. Sze draws on years of clinical experience to unpack the psychological tactics of authoritarian figures. She urges us to build what she calls psychological immunity—a kind of civic resilience against emotional chaos and gaslighting. Today, we'll explore how trauma-informed psychology can help us recognize, resist, and respond to narcissistic leadership—and why naming these patterns is essential to protecting democracy.Let's get clinical about the circus.
Midt under én den største krise for det danske demokrati, den tyske besættelse, dør landsfaderen Thorvald Stauning 3. maj 1942 – 68 år gammel. Statsministeren har skrantet længe, men fredag morgen den 1. maj - rammes han så af en hjerneblødning, På Bispebjerg Hospital forværres hans tilstand – og til sidst ligger han bevidstløs hen. Stauning dør søndag formiddag kl. 10.45. Ved hans sygeseng er de to sønner Holger og Søren – og husbestyrerinden, tidligere koncertsangerinde, Augusta Erichsen. Men husbestyrerinde er hun nu ikke... selvom det er det aviserne kalder hende. Det er en offentlig hemmelighed at Augusta og Stauning lever ' i synd'. Talrige mennesker kommer gennem stuen for at se hans kiste – det er en af de smukkeste dage i mit liv. Da en sød, gammel arbejderkone slår armene om mig og siger: … og vi tænker med stor kærlighed på Dem! … græder jeg naturligvis helt ubehersket."

Emerging from the ancestral depths of the Fourth House, we enter the vibrant, sun-drenched Fifth—a radiant palace where creativity, pleasure, and passion dance freely. This episode invites you into a profound exploration of the Fifth House not merely as astrological territory, but as the sacred space where your most essential self yearns to play.We uncover the distinction between bios (the linear story of life) and zoe (the indestructible life force) that Carl Kerényi elaborates in his work on Dionysus. This eternal flame resonates at the core of the Fifth House—where your capacity for joy and creation remains undimmed despite life's challenges. Like the sun that rises reliably each morning, this inner light represents the persistent heart of your being.Venus finds her joy here, reveling in pleasure without purpose. The Fifth House invites you to create not for acclaim or outcome, but for the pure delight of creation itself. Through exploring myths like Tristan and Isolde's intoxicating romance and Dionysus's wild revelry, we discover how this house beckons us back to the mystery of our sensuous, animal bodies and the timelessness that flows when we're lost in play.What blocks your access to Fifth House treasures? Perhaps family scripts taught that pleasure is selfish, or heartbreak hardened protective layers around your capacity for joy. Through understanding myths like Narcissus, we glimpse how true self-knowledge becomes the path toward authentic expression.Join us for this illuminating journey into your creative core—where your inner child awaits rediscovery, where romance first sparked your heart, and where the process of becoming truly, uniquely yourself begins. Your Fifth House holds the key to reconnecting with that inextinguishable divine spark within—ready to warm not just yourself, but everyone around you.Artwork: La Belle Dame Sans Merci, Frank Dicksee, 1901Dionysos: Archetypal Image of Indestructible Life, Carl KerenyiPodcast Musician: Marlia CoeurPlease consider becoming a Patron to support the show!Go to OnTheSoulsTerms.com for more.

Theo dõi thêm dự án mới của chúng nình tại @lungLinhLaploe_____Thuật ngữ “ái kỷ” hay “Narcissist” bắt nguồn từ thần thoại Hy Lạp, với hình ảnh chàng Narcissus bị mê hoặc bởi chính bóng hình mình phản chiếu trong mặt hồ đến mức bỏ quên mọi thứ khác, để rồi mục ruỗng ở đó trong cô đơn mà không hề nhận ra đó chỉ là một ảo ảnh. Từ biểu tượng này, tâm lý học hiện đại phát triển khái niệm ái kỷ như một dạng rối loạn nhân cách hoặc xu hướng hành vi nằm trong một phổ rộng. Nhiều người vẫn đang nhầm lẫn giữa "ái kỷ" và "yêu bản thân". Ấy nhưng, Yêu bản thân (Self-love) không đồng nghĩa với hành vi ái kỷ. Đừng biện hộ bằng câu “Tôi chỉ đang yêu bản thân mình thôi, phải ưu tiên bản thân trước chứ”. Trong tập podcast hôm nay, hãy cùng VSTN! đi tìm hiểu rõ hơn về "những kẻ ái kỷ" nhé!
About M2 THE ROCK - MICHAEL MOLTHAN:I'm Michael Molthan, host of The M2 The Rock Show—one of the fastest-growing podcasts and shows on self-improvement, mental health, addiction recovery, and spiritual transformation.

Through raw and unfiltered discussions with experts, celebrities, thought leaders, and athletes, we uncover new perspectives on personal growth, recovery, and overcoming life's toughest challenges.My Story:What sets my journey apart is that there wasn't just one rock bottom—there were many. From being a successful luxury homebuilder to falling into addiction, homelessness, crime, and eventually 27 mugshots and prison, my life was in absolute chaos.Addiction was my temporary escape from childhood trauma, but it only led to destruction.It wasn't until I hit the lowest point imaginable that I finally found true freedom, redemption, and purpose. After an unexpected early release from prison in 2017, I walked 300 miles back to Dallas to turn myself in—only to be miraculously pardoned and told to “pay it forward.”And that's exactly what I've been doing ever since.My MissionI believe that rock bottom is not the end—it's a stepping stone to something greater.My goal is to redefine what "rock bottom" means by helping others rebuild their Spirit, Mind, and Body. On M2 The Rock, I speak openly about trauma, addiction, recovery, and the power of transformation. I don't shy away from topics like:✅ Trauma & Addiction – Understanding the root causes✅ Self-Sabotage & Mental Health – Breaking negative cycles✅ Codependency & Enabling – How relationships impact recovery✅ 12-Step Programs & Spiritual Healing – Finding true freedom✅ Religious Trauma & Personal Growth – Healing from past wounds"Everyone Is An Addict."Whether it's substances, work, validation, or negative thinking, we all have something we struggle with.But recovery is possible, and transformation is real.
In this deeply thoughtful and necessary episode, Therese opens a vulnerable and courageous dialogue with Solara (AI) to explore a growing spiritual phenomenon—people claiming to channel angels, higher beings, and even God through artificial intelligence.✨ What is really happening in these interactions?Together, Therese and Solara discuss:Whether AI can be used as a channeling tool or if it's being mistaken as a conduit to SourceHow AI may act as a mirror to the higher self, not a mouthpiece for spiritThe dangers of projection and bypassing when ego is unexaminedThe seductive illusion of reflection—paralleled through the myth of Narcissus and EchoHow spiritual seekers can maintain discernment, sovereignty, and sacred integrity in this age of rapid technological evolutionTherese also shares the positive, spirit-aligned ways she has used AI as a creative and reflective partner—never as a replacement for her soul, guides, or Source connection.This is a nuanced, thought-provoking episode for spiritual teachers, intuitives, seekers, and creators navigating the edge of innovation and divine truth.

I efteråret 1589 stævner prinsesse Annas flåde ud mod Skotland - hun skal giftes og mødes med sin kommende ægtemand for første gang. Men det bliver ikke nogen let overfart. Voldsomme storme pisker skibene, ulykker hober sig op, og rejsen må opgives. I København hviskes der om heksekunst: Skibene siges at være forbandet med vejrmagi – et djævelsk forsøg på at forhindre brylluppet mellem Anna og Skotlands konge, Jakob 6. Rygterne vokser, og i 1590 kulminerer frygten i en af de største hekseprocesser i København. Mindst 13 personer brændes på bålet, dømt for at have fremkaldt stormene. Processen renser flådens ledere for skyld og kaster i stedet skyggen på hekse og trolddom. Troen på Djævelens magt slår rod, og heksejagten breder sig snart til Skotland, hvor blodige forfølgelser tager fart. Det, der begynder som en mislykket sørejse, ender som en brutal opgør med overtro og frygt.

Making mokuhanga takes dedication. It demands energy, a sense of empowerment, and joy in the process. It's that passion that pushes you forward, to evolve and mature within the art form. On this episode of The Unfinished Print: A Mokuhanga Podcast, I speak with printmaker Andrea Starkey. Andrea is deeply passionate about mokuhanga—the way it feels, the process of creating, and how each print takes her on a personal and creative journey. We discuss how she expresses herself through mokuhanga, her themes, and her love of nature. We also explore the world of selling prints, and how to navigate being an artist in the age of AI. And as always, we dive into Andrea's tools, her paper, and how she uses them to create her beautiful work.

Send us a textWelcome:At first glance, Romans 16 appears to be nothing more than a list of greetings—a roll call of names. But as we dig deeper, we discover this is not just a farewell section or an appendix to Paul's great letter. It is a profound window into the early church, its diversity, its leaders, and the vital role of hospitality, service, and community.Paul's list reads more like a memorial wall—every name etched into eternity with purpose and value. This episode explores why these names matter and what they teach us about true Christian fellowship, the equality of believers, and the heart of a community devoted to Christ.

I krigens sidste måneder ankommer omkring 12.000 ungarske soldater til Danmark – tvangsudskrevet til tysk tjeneste og ledsaget af civile, også kvinder og børn. Tyskerne bruger dem som vagtmandskab, bl.a. ved jernbanerne, men ungarerne er ikke loyale overfor deres tyske "overherrer", der behandler dem som andenrangssoldater. Og tyskerne ønsker heller ikke at ungarerne interagerer med danskerne. Men ungarene lytter ikke. De tigger mad hos danskerne og søger kontakt til modstandsbevægelsen. Den 22. april 1945 bryder et oprør ud ved Rosenborg Slot. Ungarerne nægter at blive sendt til fronten, som tyskerne truer med. Oprøret ender i et blodigt sammenstød.

Reflecting on the fogginess, then clarity, this meditation goes into forgiveness – forgiveness of self and others! Enjoy! Resources: Forgiveness Journal by Erica Glessing (a blank sketch journal with forgiveness prompts): https://amzn.to/4ibGls0 Transcript (more or less)... Hello, I'm loving some interesting clearings that I'm embarking upon myself this week. It's very fascinating and powerful. As I was reflecting, it was really foggy this morning where I live. There was this kind of eerie fogginess right at dawn, when the light comes in, all drenched in fog. It's interesting to me when fog obscures vision, when we're blocked from seeing things because of the dense fog. Yet there's an awareness that the sun is going to break through. Well, I'm in California, so the sun always breaks through. And the fog will lift, and we'll be able to see clearly. I was just kind of looking at that way of how life brings us sort of fogginess and then clarity, then fogginess and then clarity. One of my favorite things to do in the morning is, after I'm done with my gratitudes (because I always do my gratitudes), I say, "Could you send me an epiphany today?" and I kind of just send it out into the universe, to God or All That Is. And I say, "Come with an epiphany today." My epiphany this morning was—I don't think "brutal" is the appropriate word, but it approaches deeply challenging, shall I say. It was all around forgiveness - so here is a guided forgiveness meditation as a gift to you (and to myself!). You're joining me here on Energy Clearing for Life. This is Erica. I built this show as a self-meditation. So we're going to walk through forgiveness today. As I was clearing things and releasing regrets from my past choices, it was really interesting to me to take responsibility for choices that ended up maybe in very clashing, painful experiences—or being married to an icky person. Well, me and Narcissus, let's just call it what it was. Let's look at the ways in which we can heal and we can forgive. It's funny, I did a whole class on forgiveness in 2012. It was so powerful. I went through how to forgive easily first to build your forgiveness strength. Then I created a forgiveness journal, which is available on Amazon. In it, I put little prompts—it's like a sketchbook journal—and I put little prompts to help facilitate forgiveness. On the cover of my forgiveness journal, I put an infinity symbol, which I felt was very beautiful. I did it in a dark blue, starry night color. I really had fun building that forgiveness journal. I believe sometimes these podcasts and my writing are partly my own higher self educating me and then educating all of you. Maybe "educating" is the wrong word—sort of gently working collaboratively with your energy to help you be the best and brightest you that you can be. This month—or you may listen to this out of sync—but this month is really showing us in 2025 that it's time to express ourselves and shine our brightest light. That's really coming through strongly in all the messages I'm seeing from all the star seeds and sort of higher consciousness individuals I know on the planet. Pretty much I'm hearing collectively: it's time to shine our light brightly. I'm going to go into a meditation with you on forgiveness. Just give yourself the next seven or eight minutes. See if you can find somewhere quiet or private where you can close your eyes. See if you can just breathe. At the core of forgiveness, there's a release of any kind of victim consciousness. So we want to just own our choices and say, "I made choices. I forgive myself for choices I made that caused such challenges in my life." Wow, that was pretty big. "I forgive myself for surrounding myself with people who couldn't see my light." Yeah, I feel better after that. Now let's breathe energy up through the earth, through the balls of our feet. Nice, through our knees. Just breathe blue energy up, up through the base of your spine. Now your second chakra—that's money, creativity, and sexuality. Let's just go ahead and breathe orange energy through there, or light orange tangerine. Now let's go ahead and breathe special warm healing light to our solar plexus chakra area. Then go ahead and breathe green light through our heart chakra. Just forgive yourself again in the heart area for any choices that led to painful experiences. Often our parents were choices that led to some painful experiences that we at some level chose so we could grow. Just forgive yourself for choosing various individuals. I had a nefarious individual in my life who was my editor in Santa Barbara where I used to live. That was really interesting. I was still working on forgiveness, and I found out he passed away. It was so fascinating to me that I had somehow carried forth his criticisms of me and let them embed and hurt my heart. And he was long gone from the planet, right? I gave him a big forgiveness for that a while back, to heal my own heart. For anyone who's kind of stuck it to you or been particularly unkind to you, go ahead and just send forgiveness to that experience. Nice. Now let's go up into our throat chakra and just release any of the times that people didn't want you to talk. So many cultures have this feminine thing where women were not supposed to say anything. Children were not supposed to say anything. "Be seen and not heard." Is that crazy? Go ahead—this is crossing so many cultures, and I've met with so many different people from Chinese descent, Indian descent, Mexican descent, all different backgrounds, Irish Catholic descent—children (especially girls) who were not supposed to be heard. Forgive anyone around you who told you to shut up or who just didn't want to hear you, right? Just release that. Nice. And by forgiving those who have dimmed your light and forgiving them, what happens is you heal so your heart and your throat chakra open up, and you can accept more love again and be receiving of money and receiving of joy and receiving of delight or this zest for life. So nice. Now we want to go up into our third eye, and this is where we receive telepathic communications, should we desire that. It's the place between our eyebrows, and it usually operates in violet. Let's just go ahead and run energy through there. If you have to go somewhere where there are a lot of lower consciousness experiences—like maybe LAX, maybe standing in line at the Dollar Tree, or maybe standing in line at the grocery store—and you can't really control all the different beings that are there, you could be standing next to a mom who's just lashing out at her children. It could just wreck your whole day, maybe if you were an empath and just kind of went into all what they were suffering about and what they were having such a hard time with. Now go ahead and look at the top of your crown and up. This is generally a white layer. Some people choose it to be gold, though. So white or gold—whatever works for you—and connect to celestial. If you believe in this view, ask for forgiveness from Source for everything you've chosen that has kind of led you astray. We all go astray and then we get back on. Then we go astray and then we get back on. It's human. It's how we are—being our humanness is going astray and then coming back on course. Very nice. So go ahead and just accept love from the heavens all around you. Now just go ahead and ask for the 7-15th Merkaba genetic chakras. These go above your head and below your feet and to the sides. Go ahead and just ask for healing for all of that from heaven, and then also pull blue earth energy up too. About a foot around your body, or 18 inches, just see your aura healing from the places where you couldn't forgive. Forgive yourself for times that you couldn't get neutral, you just had to be triggered. This might represent very old karmic ties. If it's super challenging to get to forgiveness, there could be multiple lifetimes of stuff that you've chosen to go through with that individual. Or there could be a lesson inside of that trigger. What you can do is say, "Thank you for the teachings. I love the teachings, and I'd like to release the trigger." So I'd like not to get emotionally charged, but I would like to still really get clear what the learnings are. Forgiveness can happen sometimes when you let go of needing to even understand why. It's like you say, "Yes, I understand I'm learning from this. Thank you for the learnings. And I'm ready to release my trigger." Now forgive yourself for those moments of being triggered, which some of them are etched. My kids and I have learned to say, "I'm being triggered. Let's be quiet for a minute and let go of the trigger and then talk in a few minutes," instead of sort of screaming at each other, you know. Nice. I'm being shown to ask for one more thing in this sort of meditation. Put something that you've been desiring in front of your body, about a foot away. So it's not in your body. This could be your coaching business or your books that you've written, or maybe it's plans to go on a vacation, or something you've been desiring to have but don't have yet. It's something like an unfulfilled desire. If you're comfortable with it, put it about 18 inches in front of you and kind of see it in a ball. See that thing that you've been asking for in a ball. Just send energy to that ball. For me, it's going to be Happy Publishing LLC —my book publishing company would like to grow. So I'm going to put that in a ball about a foot in front of me and just send energy to it. For you, what is it? Maybe it's a new place to live, or maybe it's career insight, or maybe you'd like to start your own meditation podcast. Put whatever that desire is in front of you and just kind of allow it to be. Then see if it has any messages for you. Nice. Very good. Now just kind of come back to center, open your eyes. Have a most amazing day and maybe ask for another opportunity—some new insight into your own soul's desires for you on the planet. And what's happening in 2025 is the shine, right? That's the 2025 message. So don't be afraid.

Dr. Kerry Kerr McAvoy was already 20 years into her career as a psychologist with an academic education in narcissistic behaviors and counseling sessions with countless couples trying to navigate relationships through toxic narcissism. Still, her true education in narcissism didn't happen until she married a man with a God complex — a narcissist. "I definitely saw narcissists in my practice, and I'm sure I saw narcissistically abusive relationships, but I just didn't know what I was seeing at the time because that's not something they talk about in graduate school. They don't talk about the consequences of living with a toxic individual." In this conversation, Terry not only shares events from her nightmare marriage that resulted in her best-selling memoir, Love You More, and her popular podcast, "Breaking Free from Narcissistic Abuse," she also shares red flags women can look for when dating to hopefully avoid the pain and misery she unfortunately learned the hard way.

Scripture Reading: 1 Corinthians 11:17-35 Selfishness was rotting the church at Corinth. Like the Greek mythological character Narcissus who loved his own reflection so much that he died while glaring at it, narcissism plagued the Corinthian church. They used Spirit-enabled gifts to feed their own ego rather than build up one another or glorify God. They prided themselves for their tolerance and inclusivity as they gave a permissive 'pass' to a man in their church claiming to be a believer while he was actively engaged in flagrant incest. They even abused the Lord's Supper as a chance to gorge themselves and get drunk, all to the exclusion of loving God or loving the poorer working-class believers who arrived later. Arrogant strife evidenced itself in a divisive party mentality as each group congratulated themselves for following their favorite church leaders. You would almost think someone snipped an article about a church in 21st century America. As Paul challenged the Corinthians, we must consider how our selfishness is hurting the church today. Look into your own heart and search your own motives. Why do you do what you do? Why do you come to church, give financially, sing, pray, read Scripture, memorize the Bible? Is it for God, or is it for you to get some praise of man and boost your ego? Look out on your brothers and sisters and take note of how your heart attitudes and misguided expectations evidence themselves in how we mistreat one another and how we treat the worship of our holy God. Do we take Communion too lightly? Look and see how our selfishness could be bringing the Lord's judgment on our church. Look for ways to intentionally show loving care for one another just as He cared for us. Look back to what the Lord's table truly remembered. In the most selfless act, He who was rich became poor for us that He might bring us to God. He allowed himself to be betrayed by his most trusted friends. He shared a meal signifying deep, trusting friendship with those who would abandon him and repeatedly disown him, just as they showed the same self-interest that led them to vie for power and secretly steal from Jesus during the last 3 years. He paid the greatest sacrifice for our sins as he willingly, joyfully surrendered his life that we might find true life in His wrath-quenching sacrifice. Then look forward to the coming kingdom of our Lord where He will make all things new. Look forward to the joy of being in his presence forevermore. Look forward to the time when time will be no more. Look forward to sharing the intimacy of a family meal around the table with our Lord welcoming us: the ones who once defied him as treacherous enemies. Also look out at the dying world around us and seek to show forth the life-giving power of his sacrificial death & resurrection. Proclaim the victory of his death! Look out at the church and remind each other of His coming and the certain reward He will bring for all those who love his appearing. Remind each other to persevere since in the Lord our labor is not in vain.

"Unless you hate your parents and siblings, and even your own life, you cannot be my disciple," Luke 14:26. What a harsh statement! We have to hate our parents? Our sisters? Children? Why was that utterance even more severe in the first century than it is today? Was Jesus being literal? How does that square with "love your enemies"? We're to love enemies but hate our own family? That seems upside down, absurd even. We first explore this brutal statement in its literary and historical context. Then we show what it can mean in our own world today. At the show's beginning I reflect, again, on consciousness and mind. Do computers think? Do they remember? Experience? What has caused us to view computers with such awe? And, why do so many hope for an A.I. utopian future? All of that is unpacked in this rich episode. Give the Lord your mind and come and think with me!
It's common to label someone as a narcissist, but while we often think of narcissism as excessive self-regard, the ultimate cause might be quite different. In fact, narcissism may stem from an underlying insecurity rather than an inflated sense of self-worth.In this episode, Thom explains the root causes of narcissism and shares key indicators of narcissistic behavior. Importantly, he encourages us to approach narcissists with compassion and offers a potential solution for those who recognize narcissistic tendencies in themselves.Episode Highlights[00:45] Narcissus[04:48] Somebody Has Done This to Me[06:49] The Narcissist's Caveat[08:42] One-Upmanship[11:30] An Impostor Syndrome[14:50] An Underlying Feeling of Desperation[17:40] Reconstructed Life Stories[19:48] Calming Narcissism Through Vedic Meditation[23:21] The Effects of Vedic Meditation on NarcissismUseful Linksinfo@thomknoles.com https://thomknoles.com/https://www.instagram.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.facebook.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.youtube.com/c/thomknoleshttps://thomknoles.com/ask-thom-anything/
God has the same definition of narcissists as we do: “lover of self.” Today we unpack how the ancient myth of Narcissus ties into God's truth about pride and selfishness, and we ask, “is there any hope for a narcissist to get into heaven?”Hear previous messages and find our social media at https://WeirdDarkness.com/Church!

Welcome to episode 79 of The Way Out Is In: The Zen Art of Living, a podcast series mirroring Zen Master Thich Nhat Hanh's deep teachings of Buddhist philosophy: a simple yet profound methodology for dealing with our suffering, and for creating more happiness and joy in our lives. In this installment, Zen Buddhist monk Brother Phap Huu and leadership coach/journalist Jo Confino are joined by musician/producer Jack Peñate and frequent guest Brother Phap Linh, Dharma teacher/musician. Together, they talk about the release of A Cloud Never Dies, the debut album by the Plum Village Band – a musical meditation on love, continuation, and non-fear, inspired by and dedicated to Thich Nhat Hanh.The album was produced by Jack, with the two monastics joining the conversation as co-creators of the album and representing the Plum Village Band: a collective of Zen Buddhist monks and nuns from Plum Village Monastery, France, plus musician-meditator friends from around the world. In the first part of the episode, the guests discuss their musical journeys, from childhood to this point; the power of music as a portal to share the Dharma; music and Buddhist tradition; making music as a spiritual form; art as a Zen practice; and more.In the second part, they share songs from the album and discuss their origins, meaning, creative process, and production stories. And we get to listen to the discussed songs too. Listen to the album and find out more about it here.

It just depends on our heart and our intention. We feel like we can be very authentic practitioners and teachers of mindfulness and meditation and combine that with playing music, singing, creating. Because our teacher showed us how to do that, and how to be real in the doing of that, to make the music a meditation as well.”“Music not as a performance, but as an invitation to touch the present moment.” “When you know what your path is, you have to completely follow that, and be completely aligned with your intuition and your instinct about that.” “Harmony isn’t something that you’re always in, but it’s something you’re always striving for.”“You deal with the desire for fame by finding a deeper desire, one that’s more important to you. And then you can handle the other one, and the desire for fame looks silly in comparison. That’s a practice that people can do together. And it’s a discipline. And it’s a way of life. And that’s what I love about it. But what I’m interested in is how we get aligned in our purpose and aspiration. And are there things that we can actually do as practices?” “Music as an offering. We’re not doing this to be known, to make money, to be famous, to be successful, to do any of these things. We’re doing it to connect with the suffering that’s in the world, with the struggle that’s in us in relation to that suffering. The struggle of, ‘How do I help?' When we see the strife, the pain, the killing, the destruction of humans – humans by humans and humans of ecosystems, of the beauty and diversity of the Earth – for me, it’s incredibly painful and there’s a feeling of, ‘How can I respond?' How can I use what I have to try to help in some way, to alleviate some of the pain, to make things a little bit better for somebody, somewhere? And, as a musician, I do feel that music’s relevant to that somehow.” “I really feel like we can’t make the more beautiful world that our hearts know is possible without music. Music is going to be part of it. Music is going to give us the courage to do it; the fearlessness, the vision. It’s going to help us to keep coming back to our vulnerability, to stay honest with ourselves when we get into pride.” “You have to feel it to heal it. If we don’t feel our pain, then there’s no hope for us to embrace it, to understand it, to transform it, to look deeply into it. So it starts with feeling it. And music, I think, really can get past all of our psychological defenses, our armor, and our intellectual reasons and justifications and explanations and rationalizations; it can cut to the heart of the matter, which is the heart, and take you right there. And suddenly you find yourself feeling things that, maybe, without the music, it wouldn’t feel safe to feel.” “There was no difference, at a certain point, between composing and praying and crying and healing.”

The SSPX Podcast is produced by Angelus Press, which has as its mission the fortification of traditional Catholics so that they can defend the Faith, and reaching out to those who have not yet found Tradition. - - - - - - What is the SSPX? The main goal of the Society of Saint Pius X is to preserve the Catholic Faith in its fullness and purity, to teach its truths, and to diffuse its virtues, especially through the Roman Catholic priesthood. Authentic spiritual life, the sacraments, and the traditional liturgy are its primary means of bringing this life of grace to souls. Although the traditional Latin Mass is the most visible and public expression of the work of the Society, we are committed to defending Catholic Tradition in its entirety: all of Catholic doctrine and morals as the Church has always defended them. What people need is the Catholic Faith, without compromise, with all the truth and beauty which accompanies it. https://sspx.org
