In this episode, we explore the nature of taking a stand.Our guest, Dr. Sunita Sah (author of Defy), a professor at Cornell University and an organizational psychologist, joins us to delve deep into the concept of defiance. Dr. Sah proposes a new definition of defiance—acting in alignment with your true values when there is pressure to do otherwise. She reveals insights from her research that suggests most of us are conditioned from an early age to comply and how this conditioning affects our ability to act on our values.We also discuss the five stages of defiance that individuals go through as they act according to their principles. Dr. Sah emphasizes the importance of explicitly knowing and writing down our values to ensure that our actions align with them. Key Learnings:Defiance Redefined: Defiance is not about rebellion but about acting in alignment with your true values, despite external pressures.Conditioned Compliance: From a young age, we are conditioned to comply and this affects our ability to act in alignment with our values.Insinuation Anxiety: We often hesitate to speak up or correct others because we fear insinuating that they are wrong or unethical.Stages of Defiance: The five stages—tension, acknowledgment, escalation, threat of non-compliance, and act of defiance—help us understand the process of standing up to pressure.Value Clarity: Knowing and explicitly writing down our values can help reduce stress and align our actions with our principles.Get full interviews, daily episodes, and more at DailyCreative.app.Mentioned in this episode:NEW BOOK!

Can you still achieve financial freedom with real estate investing? Around a decade ago, it was common knowledge that with a few rental properties, you could easily replace your income, retire early, and be fast-tracked to financial independence within just three to five years of investing. Is that possible anymore? How long will financial independence actually take if you start investing in real estate in 2025? And if you feel like you're almost there, should you quit your job and dive head first into real estate? We've got two financially free investors on the show, each taking different paths to get there. Dave kept his full-time W2 to pay for his more passive real estate investments, while Henry quit his job to buy rentals and flip houses full-time. Would they both be okay if they lost their “active” income today? Yes! But they STILL choose to work to build the dream life that goes far beyond basic financial freedom. Today, they're sharing how the financial freedom formula has changed, what you need to do to get on the path to financial independence/early retirement in 2025, and whether you should stay at your W2 while you build your rental portfolio or quit your job to pursue real estate full-time. The good news: financial freedom through real estate is still a significantly quicker route to retirement, but which path will you choose to get there? In This Episode We Cover: What “financial independence” really means and how long it will take for you to get there The cash flow myth that most new real estate investors believe (this could hurt you later!) Full-time real estate investing vs. keeping a nine-to-five and why you NEED “active” income to scale fast What to know about full-time real estate investing BEFORE you quit your job  And So Much More!

Political Theorist B.J. (Bernard J.) Dobski has a new book focusing on Mark Twain's final published novel, Personal Reflections of Joan of Arc. As Dobski notes in his work and in our conversation, this is one of the more obscure texts by Twain, but Twain considered it his best work. Dobski's book is a close reading of Twain's Joan of Arc and an analysis of how this particular work, focusing on Joan of Arc's life through the narration of Sieur Louis De Conte (Joan's childhood friend and her secretary during her military undertakings), is part of Twain's larger efforts to understand the turn towards modernity, and all that entails. Mark Twain's Joan of Arc: Political Wisdom, Divine Justice, and the Origins of Modernity is part of series at Palgrave/MacMillan focusing on recovering political philosophy, and this book fits into that series particularly well. Mark Twain had a lifelong fascination with Joan of Arc. Twain's Joan serves, in the novel, as a kind of path out of the Middle Ages, and, in this way, is being positioned as a Machiavellian “princess”— embodying a political science more effectively than can the Church at the time. Dobski's interpretation explores the ways in which Joan of Arc, according to Twain, refounded and reformed France, taking many of Machiavelli's teachings into account. Another dimension of Twain's Joan of Arc is seen in context of the “historical maid” Joan of Arc and how both renderings are positioning a woman serving in a man's role. Dobski explains the controversy over Joan's attire—wearing men's clothing as a woman, which was one of the charges brought against her—and how these laws were designed to foreground the Church's teaching on modesty and decency and a means to regulate sexual ethics. This also reflects the maleness of Christ, which is not incidental to preserving the moral teachings that are rooted in the distinction between the sexes. But Joan is very much a woman in a man's world, and her success in the man's world challenges the Church's basis for these distinctions between female and male. Many of these entanglements are the focus of Twain's novel, and thus of Dobski's analysis of Personal Reflections of Joan of Arc. Ultimately, Personal Reflections of Joan of Arc: Political Wisdom, Divine Justice, and the Origins of Modernity digs into overarching and universal concerns, including the theological-philosophical conundrum, the claim of divine right by monarchs, and how to live a good life. B.J. Dobski skillfully follows Twain's curvy path through Joan of Arc's life and reputation to unpack Twain's own thinking about these perennial questions. Lilly J. Goren is a professor of political science at Carroll University in Waukesha, WI. She is co-host of the New Books in Political Science channel at the New Books Network.

Today's conversation is with Rob Dix. Rob Dix is an investment fund adviser, co-presenter of one of the UK's most popular business podcasts (The Property Podcast), and the author of four best-selling books about property investment. We hosted Rob last January to discuss ‘The Price of Money' and I'm delighted to welcome him back to chat about his new release ‘Seven Myths About Money & the Truth about Finding Financial Freedom' There is no doubt the financial system has changed and you can expect to learn why 2020 spelled the end of the old order and what the rules of the new game are. As the title to Rob's book suggests we are going to be covering 7 myths about money including if you work hard enough today, retirement will be your reward, the correct way to invest involves reducing risk as much as possible, compounding returns are the eight wonder of the world, and many more.  Rob maps out a compelling plan for a better financial future as the changing global landscape has meant a lot of previous personal finance wisdom is now outdated and potentially leaving you unlikely to hit your financial goals.

Robin Wall Kimmerer embodies an abundance mindset. The naturalist and author sees the world through the lens of her Anishinaabe ancestors, where interdependence is reality, and humans are neither above nor below the natural world. We are just one part, kin to every animal and plant and stream. Her beloved book, “Braiding Sweetgrass,” laid out this philosophy. Published in 2013, it enjoyed a gentle rise to public consciousness, not jumping onto the bestseller list until six years after publication. But it remains there to this day, a beloved devotional to millions.Now Kimmerer is back “The Serviceberry” — with a slim book that expounds on one of her core tenants: that nature's generosity is an invitation to explore our own. Kimmerer joined Kerri Miller on this week's Big Books and Bold Ideas to take us all on a virtual field trip to behold the humble serviceberry, where we get a lesson on generosity, gratitude and relationship. Guest: Robin Wall Kimmerer is an enrolled member of the Citizen Potawatomi Nation, a plant ecologist, a professor and an author. Her newest book is “The Serviceberry: Abudnance and Reciprocity in the Natural World.”Subscribe to Big Books and Bold Ideas with Kerri Miller on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, RSS or anywhere you get your podcasts.Subscribe to the Thread newsletter for the latest book and author news and must-read recommendations.

Investigative journalists — and proud “podcasters” — Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell reveal the latest in the Mica Francis story, starting with emails from JP Miller and his sidekick Tricia Ross that were sent to police days after Mica's death, urging the police to investigate one of their own in connection to Mica's death.  Yes, seriously. Turns out May 2 was a very bad day for JP Miller. Not only did he have to explain himself to his partners at the Myrtle Beach bar he had a stake in, he seemed to be on a war path as he pointed his finger at Heather Wilson, his alleged former ally at Horry County Police Department. JP — demonstrating once again that he thinks the police work directly for him — wanted the department to investigate Heather for Mica's death because she is the mother of the man Mica was hanging out with on March 11 and the man who JP later called and berated.  Mandy and Liz share the first installment of the texts and emails that came back from reporter Beth Braden's FOIA for communications between JP and the police. Also on the show, how did the waterfront home in Myrtle Beach that Wayne Miller tried to get the courts to force an octogenarian widow who was thought to have dementia to sell end up getting sold to attorney Regina Ward … the attorney who represented Mica in her pending divorce and later Mica's family in their quest to hold JP and his church accountable? We have the scoop — including an interview between Beth and Regina.  Plus, the latest in the Nautilus trial, which had Cory Fleming back up on the stand this week in federal court... and ultimately the jury came back with a verdict in Nautilus' favor, declaring that Cory Fleming owes them $1.25 Million in compensatory damages plus $50.00 in punitive damages.  Stay Tuned, Stay Pesky and Stay in the Sunlight...☀️ Episode Resources Jury decides Cory Fleming is liable for role in Murdaugh insurance scheme, owes $1.25M “Trial begins for Fleming in insurance accusation civil case” - Live5, Jan 6, 2025 “‘In my mind, that was deception': insurance expert testifies in Fleming case” - Live5, Jan 7, 2025 Alex Murdaugh's $14.8 Million Nautilus Judgement - Jan 2, 2025 911 Calls after Mica Francis' Death Timeline Exposing Dirty Southern Money Facebook Page If you are in crisis, please call, text or chat with the Suicide and Crisis Lifeline at 988, or contact the Crisis Text Line by texting TALK to 741741.

Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and Liz Farrell — and attorney Eric Bland — are BACK and ready to take on the New Year.  This 112th episode of COJ covers a range of topics, starting with a look back at the holidays. Premium members get a special discussion on Liz's snow day adventures, Mandy's aversion to winter, and Eric's past commuting woes in Philadelphia…and we'll touch on the dangers of public transportation in New York. This week Alex Murdaugh's best friend and co-conspirator Cory Fleming is back in federal court for the Nautilus case … but why? What defense could he possibly offer the insurance company that says Alex and Cory swindled them out of $3.8 million in the Satterfield scheme? Last week, Alex ended Nautilus' claim against him with a confession of judgment worth $14.8 million … meaning, things could get really bad for Cory. And yet he's still going for it. We also delve into the confusing aspects of the case, such as the role of the insurance companies and their handling of the initial claim and the potential for other co-conspirators to be revealed, especially if Cory Fleming or Alex Murdaugh provides testimony. Finally, the hosts shift gears to discuss the controversy surrounding Blake Lively and Justin Baldoni, including Lively's initial complaint and Baldoni's defamation lawsuit. We'll dive into where the three land on who “the bad guy” is here.  Plus, Sandy Smith plans to increase the reward in the search for her son's killers as more people take notice of the Stephen Smith billboards that LUNASHARK has funded throughout South Carolina. More to come on that and a new event planned for July soon so stay tuned!

It’s been five years since Covid 19 began spreading around the world from its origin in Wuhan, China. In that emergent time of the pandemic, there was widespread concern about clusters of the virus, in Italy, then Iran, then an outbreak at a nursing home in the Pacific Northwest. By March of 2020, an unprecedented international phenomenon took place: countries began closing their borders. When the World Closed its Doors by Laurie Trautman and Edward Alden looks at how this international effort disrupted the lives of people who had grown reliant on movement between countries; from migrant workers to cross-border families.
