Podcasts about Neutral

Have you stopped to consider the number of lies Democrats tell themselves?It's enormous.I don't know how they live themselves, except to say they're scared to leave the cult.Blatant lies.Covid. Vaccine effectiveness. Masks. Etc.Guns. Border policy. 2020 election. 2022 midterms. J6.The strangest thing about the hypothetical was not the shouting. It was the silence.At precisely midnight, something shifted. No executive order. No Supreme Court ruling. No viral hashtag. Just an inexplicable civic condition: every Democrat in America, from city council to Capitol Hill, suddenly lost the ability to lie.Not exaggerate. Not deflect. Not rebrand. Lie.By sunrise, the cable news studios looked like aquariums after someone forgot to oxygenate the tank. Pundits opened their mouths with the usual choreography, but what came out was unfiltered oxygen. Raw. Bracing. Occasionally fatal to reputations.The first hearings convened before breakfast.A senior Democrat, long fond of describing January 6 as an existential threat on par with Pearl Harbor and 9/11, leaned toward the microphone and admitted that while the riot was disgraceful, the apocalyptic rhetoric proved politically invaluable. It unified a fractured caucus. It redirected scrutiny away from pandemic policy failures. It froze debate. “Most secure election in history,” another repeated, before clarifying that security and public confidence are not synonyms, particularly after states rewrote voting procedures under emergency authority while private actors poured hundreds of millions into local election administration.He even cited the now well documented “Zuckerberg grants,” the $419 million channeled through the Center for Tech and Civic Life, a figure reported widely in 2021 and dissected in state legislatures thereafter. What had once been framed as “philanthropy” was now described, under duress of honesty, as asymmetrical infrastructure. Legal, perhaps. Neutral, not exactly.Then the conversation pivoted to COVID.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Noncompliance isn't always loud. Sometimes it's quiet, avoidant, and easy to miss until it grows into something bigger. In this Misfit Minute, we break down the difference between passive vs active noncompliance and why recognizing the difference early helps you respond calmly, support regulation, and prevent escalation into unsafe behaviors.

LESSON 54Review of Lessons 16 - 20These are the review ideas for today:(16) I have no neutral thoughts. Neutral thoughts are impossible because all thoughts have power. They will either make a false world or lead me to the real one. But thoughts cannot be without effects. As the world I see arises from my thinking errors, so will the real world rise before my eyes as I let my errors be corrected. My thoughts cannot be neither true nor false. They must be one or the other. What I see shows me which they are.(17) I see no neutral things. What I see witnesses to what I think. If I did not think I would not exist, because life is thought. Let me look on the world I see as the representation of my own state of mind. I know that my state of mind can change. And so I also know the world I see can change as well.(18) I am not alone in experiencing the effects of my seeing. If I have no private thoughts, I cannot see a private world. Even the mad idea of separation had to be shared before it could form the basis of the world I see. Yet that sharing was a sharing of nothing. I can also call upon my real thoughts, which share everything with everyone. As my thoughts of separation call to the separation thoughts of others, so my real thoughts awaken the real thoughts in them. And the world my real thoughts show me will dawn on their sight as well as mine.(19) I am not alone in experiencing the effects of my thoughts. I am alone in nothing. Everything I think or say or do teaches all the universe. A Son of God cannot think or speak or act in vain. He cannot be alone in anything. It is therefore in my power to change every mind along with mine, for mine is the power of God.(20) I am determined to see. Recognizing the shared nature of my thoughts, I am determined to see. I would look upon the witnesses that show me the thinking of the world has been changed. I would behold the proof that what has been done through me has enabled love to replace fear, laughter to replace tears, and abundance to replace loss. I would look upon the real world, and let it teach me that my will and the Will of God are one.- Jesus Christ in ACIM

The Neutral Mind is the part of the mind that can pause, see clearly, and choose truth without judgment.When it isn't leading, judgment gets loud, toward others and toward yourself, and even simple decisions can feel impossible.In this episode of the Sovereign Sisterhood Movement Podcast, I explain how generational trauma healing happens by training the Neutral Mind through Kundalini Yoga and the teachings of Jesus in A Course in Miracles.You'll learn what's happening in the brain, mind, and nervous system when reactivity takes over and how specific breathing sequences, mantras, and meditations restore the Neutral Mind so you can access wisdom and knowledge instead of living trapped in “good vs bad” thinking.In this episode we cover:✨ Why unhealed trauma turns the mind into a judge (good/bad, safe/unsafe)✨ What the Neutral Mind is: clear seeing without judgment or absorbing other people's energy✨ How nervous system stress makes you merge with other people's emotions and lose your own truth✨ The vagus nerve: the “safety signal” nerve that slows your heart and breath so you can stay present and not get pulled into someone else's field✨ ACIM + Neutral Mind: perception is duality, knowledge is certainty — Neutral Mind is what makes you ready to remember knowledge✨ One Kundalini Yoga Neutral Mind meditation to exit the good/bad loop fastYou are allowed to embody sovereignty — for seven generations before you and seven generations after you.Join the Sovereign Sisterhood Sanctuary — a sanctuary for the soul for first-time generational cycle breakers rebuilding their inner sanctuary and reclaiming sovereignty for seven generations before and seven generations after.Click Here: https://subscribepage.io/jnkwzV Click Here toJoin us in our Free Private Facebook Group Community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/sovereignsisterhoodmovement Join me on TikTok and Instagram : @veronicabarraganiam

Is neutrality in leadership even possible? In Episode 669 of Daily Influence, Brian Smith challenges one of the most common — and most dangerous — myths in leadership: the belief that you can stay neutral. Silence is not the absence of influence. It is influence without ownership. When leaders avoid tension, delay difficult conversations, or choose not to clarify standards, they are still shaping culture. Silence communicates values. Silence signals what is tolerated. Silence protects systems — often at the expense of people. This episode launches a deeper season theme: Influence, Maturity, and Responsibility — moving beyond growth mechanics into consequence, awareness, and legacy. Because there is no off switch for influence. There is only conscious or unconscious leadership. Reflective Question: Where in your leadership are you calling something “neutral” that is actually a choice?

PULL UP A CHAIR because we need to talk about the part of food freedom that nobody posts about on Instagram. You absolutely CAN say no to food without it being restrictive, but not until these 4 things are handled. If you're stuck in the "I'm allowed to eat everything so I do and then I feel like shit" phase, this one's for you.

Ethics in organizations live in leadership behaviors rather than documented in policies alone. We examined how leaders actively shape ethical climate and psychological safety through everyday decisions, silence, and signals.

In this episode of Policy Chats, Professor Jennifer Gaudette joins host Dori Pham to discuss polarization in local politics and how voters make decisions in nonpartisan elections with limited information. She explains how the absence of party labels and the decline of local news push voters to rely on shortcuts like endorsements.Professor Gaudette shares her research showing that police union endorsements are increasingly read as a conservative signal in mayoral and city council races, while teachers union endorsements often signal a more liberal candidate. The conversation also highlights why firefighters unions do not create the same polarized reactions, and what that reveals about endorsements tied to expertise versus ideology.The episode closes with reflections on campaign strategy, the future of nonpartisan local democracy, and how local journalism and short-form social media shape political trust and misinformation.Topics Covered:- How voters decide in nonpartisan local elections with limited information- Why police union endorsements have become more polarized over time- Endorsements as “information shortcuts” when party labels are absent- How local candidates strategically pursue targeted endorsements- The case for (and controversy around) partisan versus nonpartisan elections

Five European countries are accusing Russia of using a rare poison from dart frogs on Alexei Navalny, which led to his death two years ago. The popular dissident, who had previously recovered from another suspected Russian poisoning, headed an opposition movement against president Vladimir Putin. The announcement overshadowed the gathering of the Munich Security Conference, which has also been a test of western allies relationship with the U.S.Also: Hundreds of thousands of protesters filled Canadian city streets today. Its part of a Global Day of Action -- as Iranian communities call for regime change. Sparked by an economic crisis, the protests began in December but have spread beyond Iran... with the largest held in Munich, Los Angeles and Toronto. It also comes as fears grow over a potential military intervention by the U.S.And: The Milano Cortina Olympics are well underway. But 20 athletes are competing as neutral, not for their home countries. That's because of restrictions that also bar one of the fiercest hockey nations from taking part.Plus: Canada's FIRST Inuit-led university, Olympic newbies, Dating in Hong Kong, and more.

Send a textIn this bonus episode of the Kindness Matters podcast, host Mike Rathbun dives into one of the core ideas from his book Still Changing a World: Small Acts Of Kindness That Make A Big Difference;  kindness is not neutral—it is courageous. He explores why neutrality is passive while kindness is an active, often costly choice that can require comfort, convenience, and even approval. Mike reads a powerful section from the book that unpacks how kindness asks us to stay human in dehumanizing moments, choose compassion over convenience, hold boundaries without cruelty, and interrupt harm even when it's uncomfortable. Speaking directly to those who feel tired, overwhelmed, or tempted to go quiet, he offers validation and hope, reminding listeners that they don't have to be loud to be brave or fix everything to matter. This episode is an invitation to keep showing up as yourself, consistently, even when the emotional cost feels high.Who This Episode Is ForAnyone who cares deeply but feels emotionally worn down by division and harshness.People who don't want to match the cruelty they see but aren't sure how to stay open.​Listeners wondering if their quiet, consistent kindness still makes a difference.Grab the book on Amazon (available in either Kindle or Paperback format).Take the Next StepIf this episode spoke to you, consider sharing it—or the book—with someone who is tired but hasn't given up yet. Let it be a reminder that choosing kindness, again and again, is one of the bravest things we can do.Support the show

Indifference is often framed as maturity. As strength. As “protecting our peace.” But what if indifference isn't neutral at all? In this episode, we explore the quiet cost of tolerating what matters—and the subtle ways indifference can slowly disconnect us from our values, our relationships, and ourselves. This is not a conversation about confrontation, calling people out, or forcing change. It's a grounded, compassionate exploration of integrity, responsibility, and the difference between true acceptance and quiet resignation. We talk about how indifference often shows up as self-protection, why withholding truth erodes trust over time, and how tolerating what violates our values can lead to isolation and emotional disconnection—even when it looks like “peace” on the surface. In this episode, you'll learn: The difference between indifference and emotional maturity Where indifference quietly shows up in relationships and leadership Why withholding truth creates distance—even when intentions are good How to distinguish acceptance from resignation A simple framework for having accountable, integrity-aligned conversations How to speak from clarity without attachment to outcomes This conversation is about learning how to care without controlling, speak without demanding, and hold standards without abandoning compassion. If you've ever told yourself “it's not worth it” while feeling something slowly harden inside, this episode will help you reconnect with what matters—without losing your peace.

Send me a some feedback!In this episode, Mike and Angie explore what it really means to “go to your neutral corners” during conflict. Rather than trying to resolve emotional tension in the heat of the moment, they explain why true resolution begins with individual self-regulation. Conflict isn't solved in the center of the ring — it's resolved in the corners, where each person takes responsibility for their own nervous system.They unpack how projection, financial fear, old wounds, and emotional triggers play out inside relationships — and why nothing outside of you can fix what's stored inside your body. This conversation draws a powerful line between unconscious survival-based reactions and conscious self-mastery, revealing how emotional regulation — not control — creates an unbreakable bond.Key Takeaways1. Conflict Is Resolved in the Corners, Not the Center of the Ring Emotional regulation happens individually before resolution can happen together.2. Your Partner Cannot Clean Up What Lives in Your Nervous System Triggers reveal stored emotional energy — they are not created by the other person.3. Financial Fear, Scarcity, and Emotional Volatility Are Nervous System Patterns External changes do not resolve internal dysregulation.4. You Attract Partners Who Expose What Needs Healing Soul-level relationships trigger growth — not comfort.5. As One Person Evolves, the Relationship Must Evolve Too If consciousness levels diverge, the gap either closes through growth or widens toward separation.Notable Quotes“Everybody thinks that conflict is going to be resolved in the center of the ring. But in reality, conflict is resolved in the corners.”“There is not a damn thing that I can do in that moment to release your anxiety, the anger, the fear, whatever's in there.”“The knife didn't create the juice. The juice was already there. The knife just revealed the juice.”“The only job of the nervous system is to keep you alive.”“It's not always about comfort. It's about growth and growing together.”Call to Action

In this episode of The Intelligent Vocalist, John explains why good moments in practice can sometimes fail to stick, not because of talent or effort, but because we miss what created them. He introduces a simple target-based practice loop that replaces vague goals and self judgment with clear, repeatable actions. With the right focus, your practice can start building skills that actually last.   Episode highlights: Clear targets work better than vague outcomes. Neutral feedback supports faster learning. Small, repeatable adjustments create consistency.   To learn more about John Henny, his best-selling books, on-line courses, Voiceschool.com featuring his Teaching Team of Experts, Speaker Training and the Contemporary Voice Teacher Academy, visit: JohnHenny.com

What if the help we offer keeps people from healing? That question sits at the heart of our conversation with James Scott of Our Neutral Voices, a South Side entrepreneur turned community builder whose life bridges poverty, perseverance, and purpose. James opens up about growing up with a single mom, running a neighborhood telecom store that doubled as a listening post, and discovering that the most powerful gift isn't a handout but a path forward.We dig into why “toxic giving” stalls progress and how equipping changes everything. James lays out ONV's five pillars—spirituality and health, education and performing arts, financial literacy and economic development, and sports—and shows how this web supports entire households, not just individuals. He describes late‑night moments with a bass or lead guitar, where prayer and music steady his resolve, and explains why obedience to calling beats comfort every time.Collaboration is the engine behind the impact. James shares how ONV convened 28 organizations into a coalition built on simple MOUs, transparent roles, and shared wins. We talk frankly about the toughest barrier of all: internal strife, jealousy, and donor competition that fracture trust from the inside. The counter is humility, consistency, and clear values—God first, do what you say, and let people see the work. James also previews Escaping From The System, a practical curriculum that helps families use safety nets wisely and then exit them with dignity.If you've felt the nudge to start but waited for perfect timing, James's message is for you: begin today. Take one step toward the barrier—learn, ask, visit, budget, practice—and watch momentum build.

Steven Dover, chief investment officer at Franklin Templeton, says that while the economy generally looks positive, he sees it in a "rough spot, especially with those Mag 7 or A.I.-related stocks," which he said have gotten "way ahead of themselves." Dover, who also serves as head of the Franklin Templeton Investment Institute, says he doesn't see an old-fashioned recession happening, but thinks there may be rolling recessions impacting specific industries and sectors. That could lead to a situation "where the average looks great but for a whole lot of people it isn't good," the K-shaped downturn that impacts people who are lacking assets the most. Kyle Brown, chief executive officer at Trinity Capital, gives his outlook for the private credit and lending space, and notes that there could be some challenges for business development companies and private lenders late in the current economic cycle because returns from private credit generally have been declining. That has meant single-digit leveraged returns, Brown says, so "Investors are not happy." That, in turn, has led to redemptions in private funds and falling stock prices. Still, Brown says, that creates opportunities, which he sees being particularly abundant in the technology sector and amid continued capital expenditure spending. Charles Rotblut, editor at AAII Journal, discusses the latest Sentiment Survey from the American Association of Individual Investors, which shows that on a short-term basis, the recent market moves against stocks and precious metals have reduced bullishness. Neutral sentiment is on the rise, and while the market still has a bullish bias, Rotblut says the change will be worth watching as the market digests current headlines.

This show has been flagged as Clean by the host. In our next look at the game mechanics for Civilization V we examine several related topics: Diplomacy, Spies, and Religious Pressure. They are all ways to interact with other players without the force of arms being involved. And we will discuss the Diplomatic Victory, which is a new victory type added in Civilization V and can be fun to play. Playing Civilization V, Part 8 - Diplomacy Other Players With other players you have a relationship based on their approach to you. They are: Neutral – This is not Friendly nor is it Hostile. Trades you make with them will be fair from their point of view Friendly – They like you, and will accept requests from you more often. Trades will be slightly in your favor from their point of view. Afraid – This only happens if you have a a very substantial advantage in strength, so this is rare. They will readily accept requests from you, and trades will be in your favor Guarded – They are suspicious and defensive, and will be more likely to be unfriendly. Trades will be harder to achieve, and favor them rather than you. Deceptive – They will pretend to be friendly, but they are plotting against you. They may bribe other players to declare war on you. They will not accept requests for help, and trades will be hard to achieve. Hostile – They hate you, and are completely open about it. Trade deals, if you can get them, will be heavily against you. War – This means they have decided to go to war with you. But they need the right conditions, so they may pretend to be Friendly, Neutral, Guarded, or Hostile while they wait for those conditions to mature. These are not set in stone, as you can modify how the other player feels towards you by your actions. If you have friends in common that will improve your relationship, or if you have enemies in common. Agreeing to their requests will also improve things. But if you cannot agree, just say so. The worst negative modifier is when you agree to do something, and then do the opposite. Saying no is also negative, but not as bad. Finally, remember that negatives will erode over time if they are not reinforced. If you want a very detailed look at the mechanics and details of this, check out https://civ-5-cbp.fandom.com/wiki/Detailed_Guide_to_Diplomacy. City-States City-States are also important diplomatic partners. We'll cover all of the benefits in a different section, but here I want to focus on how they enable the Diplomatic Victory. At a certain point the United Nations will be born out of the World Congress, and when this happens a Diplomatic Victory is possible. This will occur when any player reaches the Information Era, or whenever half of the players have reached the Atomic Era. Diplomatic Victory requires that you get the votes of a certain number of delegates to the United Nations. Each player gets delegates based on their population, and there are also some additional delegates you can earn, such as through building the World Wonder Forbidden Palace which gives you two additional delegates. Anyone planning for a Diplomatic Victory should consider building this Wonder as mandatory. But each City-State gets one delegate, and if you are allied with them their delegate is yours. The mechanics of City-State relationships is that they love gifts, and cash is always the best. So anyone planning a Diplomatic Victory would be well-advised to focus on building a large Treasury. You will know when a World Leader vote is coming up in the United Nations, and can make cash drops on any City-States that are not already allied with you before the vote. But watch out that another player doesn't do the same thing after you and snipe away some of your allies. Also, you can place your spies in City-States to rig elections, and that is another way to get them to ally with you. Spies and Espionage Spies are simply awarded to you whenever any player enters the Renaissance Era. After that you receive another spy each time to advance to another Era. So you can in general have as many as 5 Spies, but if you build the National Intelligence Agency you get one more. This is a National Wonder, and should be a mandatory build if you are going for a Diplomacy victory. And England starts with 1 extra Spy, so if you play as England you could get as many as 7 Spies. Spies can be used for offense or defense. If you station one of your spies in one of your cities it can operate as a counter-spy, and may thwart or even kill an enemy spy. If you are well ahead in technology, that might be a good use, since other players will be trying to steal your tech. But if you are behind, you might want to use your spies to steal tech from other players. You may be successful in this, but the theft does not go unnoticed, and other player may use one of his spies to counter your operation. If you spy is killed, you will get another one in 3-5 turns, but if your spy was a high-rank spy with promotions, that is a serious loss, so you may want to move that spy elsewhere for a while. Diplomats When you assign a spy to the capital of another player you can designate them as a Diplomat. They will take a few turns (depends on game speed, but around 6 turns on normal speeds) to get set up. This is called “Making Introductions”, but the point is that if you need an effective diplomat, don't wait until the last minute. Diplomats can be useful in several ways. Early on, they allow you to trade votes in the World Congress. And they will bring you intelligence about intrigues, and you can then share that with other players. And it can also give you a view of the other player's City Screen. Once you have researched Globalization your Diplomats can help with a Diplomatic Victory because each one counts as one additional vote in the United Nations for World Leader. You can change a spy into a Diplomat and vice versa just by moving the Spy/Diplomat from its current location to another location, which will trigger the ability to change the job assignment. This means that when you first get Spies, and they cannot yet be used to get additional Delegate votes as Diplomats, you can assign them to City-States, where they can help you get alliances. Then as you start to research Globalization, move them to the capitals of other players and turn them into Diplomats. This of course assumes you want to win a Diplomatic victory. If instead you are going for a Science victory and are ahead in Science, it is probably best to station them in your own cities to do counter-intelligence work. If you are ahead in Science, other players will be trying to steal tech from you. Religious Pressure If you have researched all of the Piety Social Policy Tree, you will have option to choose a Reformation Belief to add to your religion. One of these, Underground Sect, allows your spies to exert religious pressure against the city they have been sent to. However, this effect is fairly small. If there is not a Follower of your religion in the city, it seems to do nothing. But in combination it can flip cities to your religion. Start by sending in a Missionary to spread your religion, then your spy can add to that. And you should also combine that with a trade route to add additional religious pressure. And by gradually moving your spies, missionaries, and trade routes from city to city, you can make your religion dominant in a region. Diplomatic Victory This can be a fun way to win, and I have done it. If you want to get a leg up, start with a Civ that gives you advantages, such as Greece or Venice (although my last diplomatic Victory was achieved with Ethiopia, which is generally regarded as a military/domination Civ. You can win any victory type with any civ, and it can be fun to “play against type”). Greece gets an advantage from relations with City-States, which are key to a Diplomatic Victory because each one gets a vote for World Leader. And Venice is interesting because you cannot build settlers. But you can use cash to puppet City-States, and you can purchase units in puppeted City-States as well. Cash is king in the Venice strategy, and you will want to get as many Trade Routes as possible. The first two should send Food to Venice to help boost your population. Since you will only ever have one city as Venice you will want to max it out. All trade routes after that should focus on cash. Use your cash to purchase or upgrade military units, and employ a defensive strategy. You want enough military to deter any aggression against you, but you should avoid making any hostile moves against others if possible. Remember, this is a strategy for a Diplomatic Victory. If you want to go to war, don't choose Venice. Instead choose one of the Domination Civs, like the Zulus or the Mongols.

Mike Mulligan and David Haugh were joined by Sporting News writer Steph Noh to share his recent takeaways on the Bulls' series of trades.

For a long time, we trusted our public libraries to be safe, neutral places for families and kids. But that's just not true anymore. In this episode, I talk honestly about how taxpayer-funded libraries have shifted from simply offering books to actively promoting ideology—and why so many parents feel dismissed or even silenced when they raise concerns. I'll share how we got here, why the American Library Association matters, and what everyday moms and dads can actually do about it—from showing up locally to building better alternatives that protect kids and respect families.Prime Sponsor: No matter where you live, visit the Functional Medical Institute online today to connect with Drs Mark and Michele Sherwood.

This is not a response video. This is not a takedown. And this is not coming from a place of cynicism.Over the last several months, detailed evidence, testimony, and documentation have come out exposing patterns of abuse, fraud, and long-term silence within parts of the charismatic church world — brought to light most clearly through the work of Mike Winger and others who chose truth over platform safety.What's becoming impossible to ignore isn't just who fell — it's who knew… and said nothing.This livestream is an off-the-cuff, pastoral, and Kingdom-centered response to what we're seeing:The cost of elevating anointing over characterHow spiritual language has been used to silence victimsWhy “staying neutral” is no longer a moral optionAnd what biblical discernment actually looks like when it's not driven by fear or celebrity loyaltyLet me be clear: This is not an attack on the Holy Spirit. This is not a denial of spiritual gifts. And this is not a call to burn everything down.It is a call to truth, light, repentance, and courage — because the Church belongs to Jesus, not to platforms, movements, or personalities.If you're confused, grieving, angry, or just tired of pretending this isn't happening… you're not alone.Let's talk honestly. Let's stay biblical. And let's refuse to protect systems at the expense of people.

This week's episode starts with a snowstorm… but it's not really about the weather.   It's about what happens when construction gets disrupted, and how the silent spaces right after hold more power than most designers realize.   Because when a project goes off track, the real work isn't about drywall or lost days. It's about who communicates what, when they communicate it, and whether that moment creates clarity or chaos.   So today, I'm breaking down: Why designers go quiet during construction (& what's really driving that silence) How not saying anything doesn't protect your authority — it quietly undermines it What you can say instead (even if you don't have all the answers yet)   This isn't about calling anyone out, it's about naming a pattern I see over and over again: Silence isn't neutral during construction. It's a leadership moment missed. Let's talk through it (so you never have to white-knuckle an update email again).   Mentioned in this episode: Access the full video interview with Elana Steele of Steele Appliance here: https://www.reneedevignierdesign.com/appliance Join the waitlist for my course here: https://www.reneedevignierdesign.com/construction-management-interior-designers    Find the full shownotes at: https://devignierdesign.com/why-silence-isnt-neurtral-during-construction

When we hear the word “persecution,” we usually think about people suffering and being killed in faraway places. That's exactly what's happening in Nigeria today where Islamic extremists are attempting a genocide that will eliminate the entire Christian population in that nation. But there are other forms of persecution, some of which we may not be paying attention to and they're happening right here in the West. James R.

The Mindset Shift That Separates Burnout from Breakthrough You've been told self-care is bubble baths and boundaries. But what if the real self-care is becoming the kind of person who doesn't need to recover from their own emotions every week? That's exactly what Dr. Gabrielle Lyon and I dig into in this episode. Dr. G is a board-certified physician and New York Times bestselling author who has worked with some of the most successful entrepreneurs in the world. And she says the ones who sustain success over time have one thing in common: they stay neutral. Big win? Neutral. Big problem? Neutral. It's just another Tuesday. We go way beyond nutrition and fitness in this conversation. We're talking about why emotional neutrality is one of the most underrated entrepreneurial skills, why discipline is actually the new self-care, and why your health quietly determines how far your business can go. Dr. G also shares how to catch yourself before old patterns start creeping back in and how to use your physical body as a tool for confidence and clarity. If you've ever felt like your emotions are running your business instead of you, this one's for you. HERE ARE THE 3 KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM THIS EPISODE: 1️⃣ Emotional Neutrality Is a Skill, Not a Personality Trait – The best entrepreneurs don't ride the highs and lows. They stay steady because as high as you let yourself go, that's how hard you'll crash. Neutrality isn't boring. It's sustainable. 2️⃣ Discipline Is the New Self-Care – Another episode or glass of wine isn't self-care if they pull you away from your standards. Real self-care is keeping promises to yourself, honoring your commitments, and building trust in your own word. 3️⃣ You Will Never Outgrow Your Health – Your business has a ceiling, and it's your body. You cannot outgrind your physiology. If you want to scale, your health has to come first. Not as a nice-to-have, but as the foundation everything else stands on.

01/28 Hour 3: John Keim Joins The Junkies - 1:00 Hot Take About NFL Neutral Site Games - 18:00 Capitals Got Crushed Last Night - 32:00

From 01/28 Hour 3: The Sports Junkies debate if the NFL should have more neutral site games.

Czabe flies solo today with a loaded agenda. First up: the absurdity of making Shedeur Sanders—now somehow the martyr of the 2025 NFL Draft—a Pro Bowl Games alternate at QB. Things get taken away as you get older. It's a fact of life, and Southwest Airlines just proved it with their final open-seating flight now in the books. Paul Allen bends the knee, but it won't be enough. A hard truth: the Easter Bunny is fake, but paid protestors are real. Did an NFL poster actually foretell this year's Super Bowl LIX matchup? Neutral-site NFL Championship games are a completely horrible idea, which naturally means Mike Florio is all for them.
