Google's Quantum AI team has made a significant advancement in quantum error correction, as reported in a paper published in Nature. The team successfully demonstrated the ability to reduce the error rate of a logical qubit by scaling up the distance of the surface code, starting with a distance-3 grid – the smallest possible surface code, which uses a 3x3 qubit grid to form one logical qubit out of 17 physical qubits.

So cozy up, breathe with me, and let nature wash you to dreamland… Love, Jody Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
For fifty years, we've been told that nature is fragile — a porcelain Eden, easily shattered by the slightest human pressure. But history tells a different story. From the fall of Rome to the Black Death, from Chernobyl to Detroit, every time people retreat, the wilderness rushes back with astonishing speed. In this episode, we examine the reality that civilization is fragile while life on Earth is ferociously tenacious. Drawing on historians like Bryan Ward-Perkins and William Cronon, and ecologists like C.S. Holling, we discover how fast forests and animals can reclaim human spaces, and why the modern myth of a delicate planet misses the deeper truth. Nature is not fragile. Civilization is.

Dr. Djuna Croon is Associate Professor in the Department of Physics and the Institute for Particle Physics Phenomenology at Durham University. Trained as a particle physicist, Djuna is interested in the most fundamental building blocks of nature. She studies dark matter, a mysterious type of subatomic particle that we don't yet know much about yet. Their work uses astrophysical measurements and particle physics experiments to better understand dark matter. Much of Djuna's free time is spent with her two young boys. They love going to playgrounds, visiting farms, and baking cookies together. She received her bachelor's degree in physics from Amsterdam University College and her master's degree in physics from Kings College London. Next, Djuna was awarded her PhD in Theoretical Particle Physics from the University of Sussex. Afterwards, Djuna conducted postdoctoral research at Dartmouth College and subsequently at the Tri-University Meson Facility (TRIUMF), Canada's particle accelerator centre. She joined the faculty at Durham University in 2021. In this interview, she shares more about her life and science.

Most women don't realize that brain fog, weight gain, anxiety, low libido, and fatigue in their 30s or 40s can be early signs of perimenopause — not just stress or aging.In this episode of The Well Drop, I sit down with Dr. Sarah Daccarett, to explore why waiting until menopause for hormone therapy leaves women struggling for years. We unpack the early warning signs of hormone decline, why “progesterone-only” therapy falls short, and how bioidentical hormones can transform health.We discuss why the delivery method matters and what realistic results look like from month one to six. Dr. Sarah Daccarett is a physician, researcher, and founder of Oestra and Inner Balance, two groundbreaking platforms dedicated to modernizing women's hormone care. Her work blends the latest science with a deep understanding of how hormones impact every system in the body.What's Discussed:(00:00) The Hormone Changes No One Warns You About in Midlife(12:24) Why Most Women's HRT Plans Are Outdated — And How to Fix Them(22:39) The 3 Hormones Every Woman Needs (and the Right Ratios)(27:19) Pills, Patches, Creams… or Something Better?

If the Earth were a Person, how would you describe what they are like, and how would you describe your relationship with them?I was brought up in a religion that taught me that nature is something separate from us and subservient to us.It's alive in a sense, but definitely not conscious. I was taught that it's impersonal, and it definitely didn't have a soul or spirit.It's beautiful, sure, but it's mainly a utility that exists to resource humans. It's here to be the support system and backdrop to the most important existence of humans.Basically, it's inanimate.But in the last couple of years, especially after my first psychedelic experience, I see things completely differently.Throughout most of human history, human beings believed in animism, and it doesn't contradict religion (or, it doesn't have to.)Animism is the belief that everything in Nature is alive and has a spirit or consciousness—not just humans and animals, but also trees, rivers, rocks, mountains, and even weather systems.It's one of the oldest belief systems in the world and is found in many Indigenous and earth-based traditions.Animism teaches that the world is made up of relationships - that we're in constant dialogue with the more-than-human world, and that everything is interconnected and deserving of respect.Press play to learn: myths and creation stories about the Earth being personal and relationalpractical and magical ways to be more connected with Nature - to receive physical and mental health benefits and also to receive messages from your Intuitionhow to see Nature as a mirror for what's happening in our inner world through its cycles of growth and restJoin us for the next experience, not just the echo, in the Wild Wellness Women's Circle.
For most of the last 2,000 years, the white-tailed eagle — or sea eagle — has been one of the most common birds of prey in Britain.That all ended in horrendous fashion from the late 18th century onwards. Shooting, poisoning, egg collection, a mania for taxidermy and more combined to see this majestic creature — affectionately dubbed the 'flying barn door — hunted to extinction in Britain. The last bird is thought to have been killed in 1918.Fast forward a century and they are now one of the great success stories of nature. Starting with four chicks brought to RAF Kinloss in June 1975, a 50-year effort led by the RSPB but supported by a string of other organisations has seen populations restored from the Highlands to West Sussex. The RSPB have celebrated this milestone with the making of a film, Return, which tells the full story, and we're delighted that two of the — conservationist Dave Sexton and musician Alice Boyd — joined the Country Life Podcast to talk to James Fisher about how it all came together.It's a wonderful, inspiring story which shows just what can be done by committed experts, backed by long-term thinking, and is a must-watch for anyone with even a passing interest in wildlife and nature. As of August 29 it's now available to watch on the RSPB's YouTube channel.You can find out more on the RSPB website — rspb.org.uk — about white-tailed eagles themselves, the making of the film and Alice's hauntingly beautiful music which captures the beauty and majesty of these great creatures.

This is a narrated version of my 'hunkering down' essay on a a calm presence.This essay is inspired by interviews with and writings by David Suzuki, Seth Klein, Joanna Macy and Thich Nhat Hanh. The episode also features excerpts from conscient podcast episodes é55 – un petit instant with France Trépanier, e177 - unknownness as a playground for artists with Asma Khan, e231 – what can we contribute? with Kelly Wilhelm, e239 roundtable – imagining in public e2 - artist perspectives on social impact with Jesse Hirsh and e235 – art from the soil with Lallan.My conclusion is that:‘I don't think humans will survive much longer as a species on earth and I worry about the suffering of current and future human and more-than-human communities.'And‘My own balance point between hope and despair lies in my belief that we are all living energy and that life in the cosmos will unfold as it should and the best course of action for someone like me is to be as calm a presence as I can while looking up at the stars in wonder and doing everything I can to reduce suffering and prepare for the future.'The narration was recorded on August 11, 2025 while drifting in a kayak on the Preston River in Duhamel, Québec. This is an uninterrupted recording except for 10 seconds of silence in between sections. Quoted texts have been slightly processed for clarity. See the Transcript tab for a complete transcription. As always, feel free to respond in the public comments section of any of my social media or privately to me : claude@conscient.ca.Thanks for listening. Below is there I list 15 resources that I narrate (also available in the written essay and in the episodie transcript): Climate Emergency Unit, led by Seth Klein, presses for the implementation of wartime-scale policies in Canada to confront the climate crisis. They produce the excellent Break In Case of Emergency podcast and campaigns such as the Youth Climate Corps. A good place to start is my conversation with their director of campaigns, Anjali Appadurai, e23 – what does a just transition look like? and my two conversations with Seith Klein : e26 – rallying through art and e77 seth klein – identifying a shared vision and a set of actionsCollapse 2050 by Sarah Connor (which is a pseudonym) explores the unspoken truth about humanity's frightening future. I've found her postings are grounded in fact and terrifying to read. I recommend it for those who want to deepen their understanding about how we got here and why we need to hunker down. In this vein, I also recommend Jessica Wildfire's The Sentinel-Intelligence which is more focused on survival tactics. I recommend her From Collapse Awareness to Collapse Acceptance posting. Both are from the US and have that point of view.Dark Optimism is a not-for-profit public interest research and activism structure featuring the writing of Shaun Chamberlin. I recommend subscribing to his newsletter and consider taking the Surviving the Future : The Deeper Dive course, which I took during the winter of 2025. For more on this see e218 roundtable - surviving the future where you can directly from participants including myself. This 3 month course is intended for those ‘seeking insights and allies to help themselves and their localities through profound change'. It's hard work but transformative and liberating. A similar deep dive course is Facing Human Wrongs, which I mention below.David Suzuki Foundation has a wealth of resources and regenerative projects. For example, I was deeply moved by the Rewilding exhibit at the Canadian Museum of Nature where thirteen Canadian artists bring the concept of rewilding to life, highlighting the vital role that nature plays in our communities through their compelling works of art. Two conscient podcast guests are part of the exhibit : sarah peebles in e230 – how can we reciprocate? and Kendra Fanconi in e36 – towards carbon positive work and e87 – on the artist brigade, ben okri, eco-restoration, eco-grief & reauthoring the world. I also recommend watching a conversation on Instagram between Suzuki and his daughter Sarika about hope and raising children.Ecologies in Practice: Environmentally Engaged Arts in Canada is a book co-edited by Amanda White and Elysia French that explores ‘the ways in which cultural production informs perceptions, communications, and knowledge of environmental distress in a Canadian context'. I was pleased to discover this group of research based ecological artists who were mostly new to me. Amanda and Elysia also produce the excellent Ecologies in Practice Podcast.Emergence Magazine is an ‘online publication with an annual print edition connecting the threads between ecology, culture, and spirituality' which are three of my favorite things. An email arrives every Sunday morning in my inbox that invites me to read, listen and do exercises. I recommend subscribing to their podcast and viewing their film series.How to Fall in Love with the Futureby Rob Hopkins, who I discovered this year, is a ‘deep dive into the people and movements throughout history who have used visions of the future to inspire positive change on a large and dramatic scale'. Rob is co-founder of Transition Network and of Transition Town Totnes. I recommend his From What If To What Next podcast series (2020-2024) and his Field Recordings from the Future.Green Dreamerwith Kamea Chayne encourages us to ‘be more imaginative in dreaming up our futures and reorienting ‘growth' towards what matters most to our well-being'. I've listened to hundreds of episodes of this podcast and am consistently engaged and inspired by these spirited conversations. Green Dreamer also produces the alchemize program which I have taken and recommend (see e161 alchemize circle - a conversation with kamea chayne). The indefatigable Kamea also produces uprooted : ‘metabolizing the mess and immensity of our socio-ecological-cultural crises via expansive interviews, critical essays and heart-centered reflections.'Gesturing Towards Decolonial Futures(GTDF) is an arts-research collective led by Vanessa Andreotti (author of Hospicing Modernity with a follow up book, Outgrowing Modernity: Navigating Complexity, Complicity, and Collapse with Accountability and Compassion which is out now). They operate as a workspace for collaborations around different kinds of artistic, pedagogical, cartographic, and relational experiments that aim to identify and de-activate colonial habits of being, and to gesture towards the possibility of decolonial futures. I took the first iteration of their Facing Human Wrongs course in 2022 which is an exploration of the ongoing systemic violence we perpetuate towards one another and the planet we are part. I produced a radio play about some of my learnings in e111 - what are the traps in your life?Ishmael is a 1992 philosophical novel by Daniel Quinn. The novel examines the hidden cultural biases driving modern civilization and explores themes of ethics, sustainability, and global catastrophe'. I was transfixed by this conversation between a gorilla and human about human supremacy and cultural myths. Ishmael is part of a trilogy that includes a 1996 spiritual sequel, The Story of B, and a 1997 ‘sidequel', My Ishmael, which are both on my reading radar.Life After Doom by Brian D. McLean explores the ‘catastrophic failure of both our religious and political leaders to address the dominant realities of our time: ecological overshoot, economic injustice, and the increasing likelihood of civilizational collapse'. McLean is a pastor who tackles the complexities of religion and spirituality with finesse and equanimity. His book helped me work through some of my current anxiety and grief. I wrote about his book in a sense of communion. I recommend the audio book version read by the author. In this vein about grief I also recommend Jennifer Atkinson's Facing It, a podcast series about love, loss, and the natural world.otherWise is a ‘cosmolocal learning community of wisdom-seekers and re-villagers - small, place-rooted gatherings - deep, slow virtual inquiry - shared rituals - commons-sense'. This initiative comes out of EcoGather, which now exists as a freely accessible digital archive of courses and a community learning network. otherWise is a good place to explore what ‘hunker down' culture might look like through their otherWisdom Circles and otherGardens programs.Reseed is a podcast hosted by Alice Irene Whittaker about ‘repairing our relationship with nature featuring thoughtful conversations about our collective journey from takers to caretakers'. I love their regenerative and grounded stories. Alice Irene is also author of Homing: A Quest to Care for Myself and the Earthwhich you learn more about in e196 - homing, a book review) and e187 - caring for the planet I love.The Great Simplification with Nate Hagens is about ‘navigating uncertainty through understanding and building a resilient future together'. This is my ‘go to' podcast for unfiltered and credible scientific knowledge but also Nate's philosophical and spiritual insights. In particular, I enjoy Hagen's Frankly series of personal opinions that often mirror my own vulnerabilities and musings. Their web site is a great resource, notably The Great Simplification Movie. Zen and the Art of Saving the Planet by Thich Nhat Hanh and collaborators is a ‘vital approach to combating climate change and creating a better world for us and our future generations'. I recommend this book for those interested in engaged buddhism and environmental spiritual practices. An online course is offered by Plum Village. In this vein, also see e29 loy – the bodhisattva path.Note: New content comes my way every day that inspires and motivates me, for example, Kamea Chayne's All eyes on Gaza, all ears everywhere else, too, and all hands in the dirt!! in Uprooted and Robertson Work's Coming Home to the Present Moment in Compassionate Conversations. *END NOTES FOR ALL EPISODESHey conscient listeners, I've been producing the conscient podcast as a learning and unlearning journey since May 2020 on un-ceded Anishinaabe Algonquin territory (Ottawa). It's my way to give back.In parallel with the production of the conscient podcast and its francophone counterpart, balado conscient, I I publish free ‘a calm presence' Substack see https://acalmpresence.substack.com.Your feedback is always welcome at claude@conscient.ca and/or on social media: Facebook, Instagram, Linkedin, Threads, BlueSky, Mastodon, Tik Tok, YouTube and Substack.Share what you like, etcI am grateful and accountable to the earth and the human labour that provided me with the privilege of producing this podcast, including the toxic materials and extractive processes behind the computers, recorders, transportation systems and infrastructure that made this production possible.

The goal of Christianity is Christlikeness. Spiritual growth is the fruit of our faith; evidence that we are connected to the vine. In this episode of Kitchen Table Theology, Pastor Jeff and Tiffany unpack what spiritual growth really is, why it matters, and how believers partner with the Holy Spirit to become more like Christ.They explain the nature of growth, the role of discipline and refinement, and the daily practices that help Christians mature in their faith.What We Discussed01:17 – Growth and Maturity in ScripturePractical Theology connects doctrine to daily life. Examples from Corinth and Hebrews show how believers can remain spiritually immature. The Christian life involves either progressing or regressing—there is no standing still.03:42 – Defining Spiritual GrowthSpiritual growth is a progressive development in key areas of life: spiritual character, knowledge of God, faith, and an appreciation of Christ's work.05:00 – The Nature of Spiritual GrowthGrowth is a partnership between the Holy Spirit and believers. The Spirit empowers us to live out God's truth, producing behavioral growth expressed in love, patience, and obedience.07:05 – Lifelong Learning and RefinementSpiritual growth is not linear. God refines believers through discipline and correction. 09:40 – The Goal of GrowthThe ultimate outcome is to become more like Christ. The fruits of the Spirit shape believers into His likeness.12:00 – Practicing Spiritual Growth DailySpiritual disciplines mirror physical habits. Believers need daily nourishment from God's Word, obedience to His commands, and rest in His promises. 14:33 – A Call to Ongoing GrowthSpiritual growth has infinite capacity. Christians should never be satisfied with their current condition but continually press forward in maturity.Key Quote“Although we'll never attain absolute spiritual maturity in this world, we can be relatively mature for our spiritual age as we give ourselves daily to the means God uses to grow us.” – Pastor Jeff CranstonWe love your feedback!

In this episode, we welcome back chef, regenerative farmer, and author Mollie Engelhart to explore the timeless truth that Nature Never Lies. Drawing from her new book Debunked by Nature and her journey from running restaurants in Los Angeles to stewarding Sovereignty Ranch in Texas, Mollie shares hard-earned wisdom on resilience, sovereignty, and the deeper meaning of reproductive health.Through candid reflections on failure, faith, masculinity, and the entrepreneurial spirit, she reminds us that nature offers the ultimate blueprint for truth, health, and human thriving. This conversation is a call to return to the agrarian way of life, reclaim our role as stewards, and align with God's design in order to cultivate a more vital future.Time Stamps(00:00) Nature's Truth(00:34) Episode Intro(01:10) Introducing Molly Engelhart(07:34) Molly's Journey and Resilience(09:52) Facing Challenges and Embracing Change(14:15) The Importance of Soil and Human Health(18:00) Navigating Government and Societal Structures(25:26) Reproductive Health and Rights(37:34) Molly's Hip-Hop Industry Involvement(42:58) The Importance of Emotional Resilience(44:37) The Entrepreneurial Spirit(46:21) Balancing Big Picture and Details(01:04:05) The Role of Masculinity(01:15:08) Understanding Sexuality and Compassion(01:16:04) Personal Experiences and Compassion(01:21:31) The Power of Framing Trauma(01:25:05) The Inspiration Behind the Book(01:39:22) The Impact of Community Support(01:46:17) Final Thoughts and ReflectionsGuest Linkshttps://debunkedbynature.com/ Food Is Medicine Event - Sept 25-28https://www.instagram.com/talktomollie/ https://www.sovereigntyranch.com/ Connect with UsJoin our membership Friends of the TruthSubscribe to Here for the Truth FridaysTake the Real AF Test NowDiscover Your Truth Seeker ArchetypeWatch all our episodesConnect with us on TelegramAccess all our links

As a sequel to the last episode, Mary Stone updates the progress of a late-season cardinal nest that she thought was taken by a predator. Later, she learns that the fledglings are likely on the ground, honing their flying skills while being tended by their parents. She concludes with a reflection based on a plaque passed down by her mother: "Wonder is the Beginning of Wisdom," encouraging listeners to cultivate acceptance and a curiosity to learn about different things, both in nature and among others, because we are all one in this world, in this Garden of Life.

Dans la mythologie grecque, l'Ambroisie était le nectar des Dieux, qui leur assurait l'immortalité.C'est aussi une plante, une EEE, espèce exotique envahissante, qui cause beaucoup de soucis en France. L'Ambroisie à feuilles d'armoise (Ambrosia artemisiifolia L.) sécréte, en plus d'un pollen très allergisant, une substance qui inhibe la croissance des plantes voisines.Pionnière et opportuniste, elle peut entrer en compétition avec les plantes cultivées, ce qui peut impacter les rendements agricoles. Sa gestion représente donc un enjeu de santé publique : son pollen peut déclencher une réaction allergique (rhinite, conjonctivite, asthme ou encore eczéma). En Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, région la plus touchée, 660.000 personnes seraient impactées par l'Ambroisie, ce qui engendre des coûts sanitaires importants.Gaëlle Guyot du FREDON Nouvelle Aquitaine nous explique tout ça. _______ Le FIFO (Festival international du film ornithologique) de Ménigoute est un rendez-vous incontournable pour les passionnés du documentaire animalier et pour les amoureux du Vivant.Le FIFO propose des projections de films, mais aussi un forum des assos et autres acteurs naturalistes, un salon d'Art animalier, des rencontres-débats, un festival off, des sorties et ateliers nature. L'entrée est gratuite et chaque projection payante. C'est simple, riche et “familial”.BSG a eu l'honneur et la chance d'y être invité pour la 38 e édition, fin octobre 2022. Marc y a réalisé 48 interviews, en se laissant guider par le hasard, au petit bonheur la grande chance. Il en est revenu les cales pleines de belles rencontres et de pépites naturalistes.___
Introduction The message focuses on hidden sin and the importance of dealing with it. Uses the analogy of a piece of masking tape in the sanctuary to illustrate how sin can be small, concealed, left behind, and yet still significant to God. References Psalms 69:5, James 2:10, and 1 John 1:8-9 to emphasize the omnipresence of God's knowledge of sin and the need for confession and repentance. The Futility of Hiding Sin Human nature compels people to hide things from God, but it is impossible. God knows everything, including unspoken thoughts and the contents of the heart. God knows what has been overlooked, swept under the rug, or neglected. The Masking Tape Analogy A piece of masking tape in the sanctuary serves as an analogy for hidden sin. The tape is small, and people often convince themselves that small sins don't matter. Examples: responses in prayer, reactions to others, thoughts. The tape is in plain sight, yet unnoticed by most. Illustrates how sin can be present but ignored. The Significance of "Small" Sins According to James 2:10, offending in one point of the law makes one guilty of all. Anything not of faith is sin. Sin separates individuals from fellowship and communion with God. Assigning a size to sin based on comparison to others is flawed. God did not excuse sin at Calvary but paid for it through the suffering and death of Jesus Christ. Buford's Wisdom Recollection of a conversation with Buford, who expressed that if he could do it all over again, he would preach harder on sin. People allow sin to linger in their hearts. God is holy and calls people to be holy. There is no excuse for undealt with sin. The Nature of Sin Sin is a violation of God's holiness. If God gave an inch for any sin, it would open the door to all sin. All sin was condemned in the flesh when Jesus was nailed to the cross. Even seemingly small sins were significant enough for Jesus to bear the punishment. Concealed Sin The masking tape is partially out of view, in a place where people don't typically look. Sin may seem concealed, but it is not hidden from God. God will expose sin at some point. Sin is "Left Behind" The masking tape was left behind, implying someone was involved with it and had a purpose for it. Sin is not someone else's fault; individuals are responsible for their own sin. People often repent of the symptoms of sin but leave behind the root cause, such as a broken heart, malice, jealousy, or a wrong attitude. God wants to deal with what has been left behind. Sin is in Clear View to God The masking tape is in clear view, but most people haven't noticed it. The devil wants people to forget about their sin, but God doesn't work that way. If something was sin then, it is still sin. 1 John 1:9 states that if people confess their sins, God is faithful to forgive them. The Importance of Confession Confessing sin is key to dealing with it. Sin impairs worship and hinders fellowship with God. There is nothing more important than fellowship with Christ. Individuals should ask God to search them and reveal any wicked ways. God will make sin apparent, providing an opportunity to turn away from it. There should be no shame in seeking God's help with sin. Evidence of Sin The masking tape had evidence of where it had been, including a hair and carpet fiber. Sin leaves marks and bears evidence of what is still in the flesh. The heart is extremely wicked and cannot be trusted. Sin Sticks Sin sticks and hangs on until it is dealt with. Dealing with sin requires honesty, guilt acknowledgement, repentance, and turning away from it. God casts forgiven sin as far as the east is from the west. Sin is Near the Altar The masking tape was near the altar. Sin has always been near the altar. God can deal with whatever has been said about sin. Conclusion
As Allied troops surrounded and pressured the city of Berlin, WWII was all but over. Cowardly, Hitler took his life in his protected bunker. In shooting that bullet in his brain, he escaped the justice the world was due. There would be no trial, no answers, no humbling for the great boasts he has made. The rest of the world was denied a true sense of justice. We thirst for justice. But it is not all we need; a fact the gospel reminds us of continually. Today, as we look at the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, let us hear the truth about the nature of God’s true and lasting justice. 1. True justice punishes sin 2. True justice pursues sin 3. True justice cannot placate sin 4. True justice cannot prevent sin

This lecture discusses key ideas from the modern philosopher Thomas Hobbes' work Leviathan It focuses specifically on his discussion in chapters 15 and 26. In chapter 15, after having enumerated and explained the majority of the "laws of nature", which Hobbes notes correspond to various virtues, he claims that the science of the laws of nature, of virtue and vice, and of good and bad, is the "true and only moral philosophy". His position seems somewhat paradoxical, however, for reasons discussed in chapter 26 To support my ongoing work, go to my Patreon site - www.patreon.com/sadler If you'd like to make a direct contribution, you can do so here - www.paypal.me/ReasonIO - or at BuyMeACoffee - www.buymeacoffee.com/A4quYdWoM You can find over 3500 philosophy videos in my main YouTube channel - www.youtube.com/user/gbisadler Purchase Thomas Hobbes' Leviathan - amzn.to/3uhKmDE

Have you noticed especially hazy skies where you live over the last few summers? While many parts of the world are experiencing more frequent and intense wildfires, even places that are nowhere near the fires are being impacted by the smoke from fires hundreds or thousands of miles away. Wildfire smoke gets so high in the atmosphere, it can be blown across a continent in a matter of days. In this special bonus episode, we're going to learn the how and why of wildfire smoke that drifts around the world. And we'll talk a little bit about how to stay safe when air quality goes down. Our guests are Professor Joel Thornton of the University of Washington and Dr. Gregg Furie of Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston.Download our learning guides: PDF | Google Slide | Transcript

In this episode I explore the Stoic perspective on the environment — how we should think about our roles and responsibilities toward nature, and whether caring for the natural world is a Stoic duty or an indulgence in trying to control what we cannot. Along the way, I share examples of real-world environmental issues, discuss the balance between regulation and freedom, and outline some practical ways we can each live “according to Nature” in our daily lives. Key takeaways from this episode include: — Asking “What would the Sage do?” helps us check our impulses and aim for wiser decisions about environmental responsibility. — For Stoics, the environment is not just scenery — it is literally part of Nature (capital N), the divine order of the cosmos, and therefore worthy of our care. — Global warming and climate breakdown are indifferents, but how we choose to respond to them can be virtuous or vicious. — Individual action matters, even if small, but systemic issues like over-commercialization and corporate pollution require collective attention and regulation. — Living according to Nature means balancing gratitude for what we already have with responsible choices that support sustainability and justice.

Ever feel like your brain is fried from too much input, but not enough output? Like you're consuming podcasts, scrolling social feeds, reading articles, binge-watching YouTube—and yet when it comes time to spark your next big idea… you're blank? In this episode of The Happy Hustle Podcast, I break down what I call the innovation igniter. And no, it's not about forcing yourself into some high-pressure “brainstorming session” with a whiteboard and stale coffee. It's about creating the conditions where real breakthroughs can flow.I've studied how innovation really happens—not just for me, but for executives, entrepreneurs, and creatives across industries. McKinsey reports that 84% of leaders believe innovation is critical for growth, yet 94% admit they're unhappy with their results. That gap? It's not a lack of talent—it's a lack of the right environment for ideas to actually ignite.So here are the three main conditions that fuel innovation. First, you need space to think without pressure. Cortisol, the stress hormone, literally shuts down the prefrontal cortex—your idea factory. You gotta schedule sacred “think time,” device-free, even if it's just 90 minutes a week. Second, you need diverse perspectives to challenge your assumptions. Stats show diverse teams outperform by 35% in problem-solving. That's why I love masterminds where we've got people from totally different backgrounds pushing each other into new insights. Third, you need freedom to explore without judgment. That “yes, and…” mindset that Pixar and improv comedy thrive on. No idea is too weird at first—let it breathe before you kill it.Beyond those conditions, I also share a framework: block weekly think time, seek cross-pollination with outsiders, and create environments where wild ideas are celebrated. When you do this, breakthroughs stop being “lucky moments” and start becoming predictable. For me, that often happens out in the Montana backcountry during our Epic Camping Adventures. Phones off. Nature on. Minds open. And boom—million-dollar ideas drop.If you're stuck in consumption mode, overloaded with info but starving for wisdom, this episode is for you. It'll give you permission to slow down, clear the noise, and make space for the brilliance that's already in you. Because innovation isn't luck—it's a muscle. And with the right conditions, you can flex it anytime you need.Connect with Cary!https://www.instagram.com/caryjack/https://www.facebook.com/SirCaryJackhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/cary-jack-kendzior/https://twitter.com/thehappyhustlehttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFDNsD59tLxv2JfEuSsNMOQ/featured Get a free copy of his new book, The Happy Hustle, 10 Alignments to Avoid Burnout & Achieve Blissful Balance https://www.thehappyhustle.com/bookSign up for The Journey: 10 Days To Become a Happy Hustler Online Coursehttps://thehappyhustle.com/thejourney/Apply to the Montana Mastermind Epic Camping Adventurehttps://thehappyhustle.com/mastermind/“It's time to Happy Hustle, a blissfully balanced life you love, full of passion, purpose, and positive impact!”Episode Sponsors:If you're feeling stressed, not sleeping great, or your energy's been kinda meh lately—let me put you on to something that's been a total game-changer for me: Magnesium Breakthrough by BiOptimizers.

The 1% in Recovery Successful Gamblers & Alcoholics Stopping Addiction
Text and Be HeardStanding at the Flight 93 Memorial in western Pennsylvania, I felt a profound connection between these American heroes and our recovery journey. Tom Beamer's famous words—"Let's roll"—carry a message that transcends that tragic day and speaks directly to anyone fighting for a better life.Those 40 passengers woke up on September 11th not knowing it would be their last day. Yet when faced with unimaginable circumstances, they took decisive action, made calls to loved ones, and prevented further tragedy. This powerful historical moment mirrors what we face in recovery: the courage to take action when necessary, the importance of expressing love daily, and the reminder that today might be all we have.The memorial site, nestled in the Allegheny Mountains, serves as both a solemn reminder and a place of spiritual renewal. Nature itself becomes a healing force here—those last 30 miles of gorgeous scenery driving in reminded me how simply being outdoors increases our natural serotonin and supports neurochemical healing. In addiction, we stop truly living. Recovery demands we return to life with intention, embracing each moment as precious.The Recovery Freedom Circle community embodies this philosophy—working hard in recovery and relationships, loving unconditionally, and finding laughter every day. We encourage each other to stay in action rather than stagnation, to share feelings openly, and to support each other's growth. Whether today is one of thousands in your recovery journey or your very last day on earth, make it count. Tell someone you love them. Work toward something meaningful. Find a reason to laugh. And remember that the small, daily choices are what ultimately define our lives.Support the showRecovery is Beautiful.

Eve Quesnel, author of the new book "Snow Fleas and Chickadees: Everyday Observations in the Sierra," joins us from her home in Truckee. For more than two decades, she's been paying close attention to the Sierra Nevada, finding evidence that "nature will show up" everywhere — even in urban cracks and sidewalks. Quesnel discusses making a conscious effort to step outside our digital distractions, the importance of knowing your neighborhood ecosystem, and how simple daily walks can transform our understanding of the natural world around us.
We discuss how modern technology is negatively impacting children's metabolic, behavioural and neuro-developmental health, as well as benefits of outdoors & sunlight for children, and the potential for a new educational paradigm built on technology that respects our health. SUPPORT MY WORK
