Body as Shadow: Jung's Method of Embodied Healing is Jungian analyst Erica Lorentz's passionate, clinically grounded argument that Jung's psychology was never meant to be “head-only.” It was always an embodied practice, one that asks us to meet psyche where it actually lives: in sensation, emotion, energy, imagination, and what Jung called the somatic unconscious or subtle body. At the heart of the book is Lorentz's central method: embodied active imagination, a way of working in which inward attention to a symptom, sensation, or emotion becomes a portal into imaginal material and archetypal depths, without forcing interpretation or prematurely translating experience into words. This approach is shaped by her long apprenticeship in Authentic Movement (also known as Movement as Active Imagination), where the psyche is allowed to emerge through the body in a protected relational container and a non-directive witnessing stance. Lorentz argues that many modern approaches to trauma and psychotherapy remain constrained by a left-brain bias: we attempt to heal through insight, narrative, and cognitive explanation, while the original wound and the original healing energy often sits below language. Drawing on Jung's own words from the Zarathustra Seminar, she emphasizes the mysterious interlocking place where body and psyche become indistinguishable: where we cannot know if we are in matter or in psyche, because we are in both. Throughout the book, Lorentz bridges what is too often split in Jungian circles: developmental work and archetypal work. She insists that when we work with complexes, we must come to terms not only with childhood roots, but with the archetypal core “on its own ground”, because the archetype is not a metaphor; it is a force, and one we encounter in a bodily way. Erica Lorentz, M.Ed., L.P.C., is a Jungian analyst (IAAP) and training analyst at the C. G. Jung Institute of New England. With early roots in dance and decades of experience in Authentic Movement (Movement as Active Imagination), she integrates depth psychology with embodied and imaginal approaches to healing. Trained in object relations and shaped by clinical work with autistic and psychotic youth, she has taught and lectured widely on Jung, the body, and embodied active imagination across the US, Canada, the UK, and internationally, including teaching in India in 2024.

A routine errand turns into something else entirely.On a quiet stretch of road in New England, a loud mechanical failure interrupts a simple mission—and sets off a chain of events no one could have planned. What follows is a day marked by detours, unexpected generosity, awkward conversations, and a growing sense that God might be doing more than just providing what's needed.This Unwritten story is about learning to trust when plans fall apart, discovering joy in inconvenience, and realizing that sometimes God's reassurance comes not through answers—but through laughter.In this episode:

Hey friends,Have you ever felt like you're trying to pass on faith to your kids while quietly wrestling with your own? If so, this episode is for you.This week I'm joined by Kristin LaValley, writer, retreat host, and mom of five, who brings so much vulnerability and hope to the table. Kristin's story is one many of us can relate to: growing up in the church, facing seasons of doubt and deconstruction, and learning how to build a gentler, deeper faith in the aftermath. Her wisdom is rooted in real experience, and she reminds us that asking questions doesn't disqualify us, it invites us to know God more fully.Here are just a few of the things we unpack in today's conversation:Why fear-based faith doesn't last, and how to replace it with something more rooted in loveThe difference between shame and conviction, especially when helping our kids process emotionsHow to give our children spiritual agency without disengaging from their discipleshipWhat it means to be a non-anxious presence in the midst of theological tensionThis one is tender, thoughtful, and full of grace. I hope it reminds you that God can hold both your faith and your questions.Kristin LaValley is a writer, retreat leader, and mother of five living in New England. She helps women process faith, trauma, and spiritual transformation with honesty and hope. Her latest book, Growing Up Saved, is a heartfelt reflection on evangelical culture, mental health, and rebuilding faith after deconstruction.(01:28) Transitioning from Homeschooling to Public School(02:41) The Power of Writing in Healing(05:19) Navigating Church Hurt and Parenting(10:36) Giving Kids Agency in Their Faith(20:38) Understanding Shame and Its Impact on Faith(28:38) Kristen's Book and Closing ThoughtsConnect with KristenWebsiteInstagramFacebookGrowing Up Saved bookResources MentionedChristian Parenting resourcesSign up for Morning MinuteI Can Only Imagine 2 movieOpen a LearningRX centerDisciplines of Devotion seriesPrefer video?

Today I am joined by Mattie Brown! Mattie is a New Orleans based, floral artist known for her delicate, coastal-inspired designs rooted in her childhood summers in Cape Cod and New England. She studied Interior Design at LSU and worked professionally in the design industry before her painting hobby grew into a thriving business.

John and Kevin talk Patriots, Boston College recruiting news as well as Umass and UConn news. They also talk high school football coaching hires.

Today, I am speaking with the founder of a rather unique RV manufacturer which specializes in creating double-hulled fiberglass travel trailers. Scott Hubble, is the CEO of Awaken RV in Apple Creek, Ohio. He started the company as the result of what he called a midlife thought. He reached a point where he realized he was not having as much fun as he used to, and Scott wanted to build something around a community-driven RV niche. That search led him to the fiberglass trailer community, where he saw opportunity to create a new kind of RV. Scott said their first model is called the Morningstar, and he described it as a double-hull, dual-axle, fiberglass-molded travel trailer designed with comfort, capability and a more rugged look. In this interview, Scott explains what “double hull” construction means, why it matters for strength and insulation, and how Awaken RV is trying to deliver an RV that is fully-equipped right from the start. Scott broke down the practical benefits of Awaken RV's double-hull fiberglass design, including how the exterior and interior shells create multiple insulation points that can help with comfort in colder weather and hotter seasons. He shared more details about the Morningstar and the company's philosophy that everything is standard, with a focus on building a trailer that is ready for real travel and extended use. Scott said it is reasonable for buyers to pick up their RVs about five months after placing an order; however, some situations are running closer to three to five months depending on dealer slots. He also outlined Awaken RV's 5-3-1 warranty, which he explained is five years structural, three years craftsmanship, and one year on components. However, some components have even longer manufacturer warranties. To learn more, visit www.awakenrv.com or email the company at info@awakenrv.com. The company does give tours, and Workampers can call 330-778-0004 to schedule a visit.

Send a textTemperatures are on the move this week and not quietly. We're stepping into a much more active and unsettled pattern across southern New England, with multiple chances for precipitation and plenty to watch as the atmosphere keeps shifting gears. That means one big focus right now: ice safety. Changing temperatures and variable conditions can make ice incredibly unpredictable, so awareness and smart decision-making are key as we head deeper into February.At the same time, something powerful is happening above us. The Sun is climbing higher, and daylight is increasing in bigger and brighter chunks. You can feel it. The angle of the Sun continues to rise, the daylight stretches longer, and even with storms in the mix, the seasonal transition is underway. What does that mean for temperatures, snowpack, and the weeks ahead? We're breaking it all down with the Weekly Weather Preview — Episode #231 of Obsessed with the Weather! Enjoy! Support the show

Episode Description: In this insightful episode of the Stuck In My Mind Podcast, host Wize El Jefe welcomes Shirley Hayden, founder and president of Aspire Sales Management Solutions, for her very first podcast appearance. Drawing from over 25 years of executive sales leadership experience and Harvard Business School strategy training, Shirley Hayden shares her expertise on what it takes to build sales systems that not only drive growth, but also endure. The conversation, both conversational and deeply practical, begins with Shirley Hayden recounting her journey from sales representative to executive leader. She discusses how natural leadership tendencies and a keen eye for systems propelled her career, and shares lessons often missed by others—including the importance of speaking up, asking for help, and maintaining open communication with those she leads. Throughout the episode, Wize El Jefe and Shirley Hayden unravel the nuanced relationship between personalities and systems in sales teams. Shirley Hayden emphasizes that while likability and interpersonal skills matter, the foundation of sustainable sales is process-driven. She notes that effective salespeople whether extroverts or introverts succeed by asking the right questions, genuinely seeking to solve customer pain points, and engaging deeply in the mental game of sales. Listeners gain valuable insights into the real-world challenges faced by sales leaders. Shirley Hayden describes turning around an underperforming New England sales team by introducing structured onboarding and operational processes, dramatically reducing the time it took for new hires to become profitable. This experience sets the stage for a broader discussion about the universal need for systems, illustrated not only in sales but also through Wize El Jefe's own experience structuring his podcast for greater efficiency and growth. The episode dives into the continuous evolution of leadership philosophies. Shirley Hayden advocates for ongoing education, firsthand customer interaction, and persistent exposure to current industry trends—especially the transformative role of AI and new technologies in sales acceleration. Both speakers highlight the power of attending summits and conferences for networking, education, and staying ahead in a fast-moving landscape. One of the most resonant themes is the challenge of strong products underperforming due to weak sales processes. Shirley Hayden systematically breaks down common pitfalls: poor onboarding, lack of infrastructure, mismatched sales personalities, and absent assessment tools. She explains the importance of identifying whether a salesperson is a hunter, farmer, or account manager, and ensuring roles align with individual strengths. The episode explores what separates teams that merely survive from those that scale. Shirley Hayden stresses the necessity of a buildable, scalable, and repeatable sales process. She introduces the concept of a customized sales playbook, recounting a case study with a law firm where lack of process led to inefficiency and redundancy. Her discovery approach focuses on streamlining systems to increase efficiency and communication, and reduce errors. Accountability and data-driven decision-making emerge as cornerstones of successful sales leadership. Shirley Hayden details how key performance indicators tracked in a CRM system empower organizations to manage, coach, and forecast effectively. Weekly one-on-one meetings, structured feedback, and clear benchmarks keep teams on track and motivated. As the episode delves into scaling sales teams from small businesses to national organizations, Shirley Hayden emphasizes the engine-like importance of sales, the limits of relying solely on marketing, and the advantages of hiring fractional leaders for specialized expertise without the high cost of full-time executives. She outlines the significance of sustainable, repeatable growth: proper forecasting, data-driven strategy, ongoing training, weekly troubleshooting, and competitor awareness. Addressing common blind spots among founders, Shirley Hayden observes that founders often promote trusted associates into sales roles without proper assessment or process, leading to mismatches and inefficiencies. She warns that 80% of small to mid-sized businesses lack a documented sales process, hampering their ability to scale. The episode offers advice for struggling businesses especially those plateaued or stalled in growth. Shirley Hayden recommends starting with a sales assessment, reaching out to a fractional VP for a complimentary evaluation, and evaluating compensation structures to ensure that sales teams remain incentivized and motivated. Culture, compensation, and legacy are tackled head-on. Shirley Hayden talks about cultivating A-players not just through money, but by providing pathways for advancement and a positive workplace environment. She underlines the essential role of organizational culture in attracting and retaining top talent, encouraging leaders to revisit and live their guiding principles, and to celebrate wins to foster morale and drive continual improvement. Personal anecdotes from Wize El Jefe bring these concepts to life. He shares stories about employee recognition and the importance of celebrating achievements, highlighting how meaningful leadership practices create lasting impact in every organization. The episode closes with Shirley Hayden's contact details and a call to action for founders, leaders, and business owners: structure and systems are the keys to unlocking clarity, confidence, and scalable success. If you're ready to rethink sales and drive sustainable growth, this conversation is essential listening. Key Topics Covered: Sales leadership evolution and common pitfalls The importance of systems over personalities in sales Building and onboarding effective sales teams Continuous education, networking, and leveraging AI Sales processes, playbooks, and infrastructure Accountability, KPIs, and data-driven leadership Scaling from small teams to national organizations (including fractional leadership) Sustainable growth principles in today's climate Blind spots around hiring, promotion, and processes for founders Compensation strategies to attract and retain top talent The role of culture, principles, and celebration in strong sales organizations Real-world anecdotes illuminating leadership and team motivation This episode of Stuck In My Mind Podcast is a masterclass in sales systems, leadership, and the psychology of growth as relevant for business owners, sales professionals, and anyone looking to build lasting organizational success.

The Seattle Seahawks are now two-time Super Bowl Champions and it still feels surreal. We're continuing the celebration with a full walkthrough of the win over New England and a preview of some of the major offseason topics. Seattle set the tone early, flipped field position through elite special teams, and leaned on a dominant defense that consistently harassed Drake Maye. Kenneth Walker kicked off his campaign for MVP early and the offensive line established their physicality on the first play of the game. Some outstanding plays by the Patriots defense kept Seattle out of the end zone in the first half, but Jason Myers was still able to help build a two-score cushion going into the half. The defense continued to overwhelm New England in the third quarter and held them scoreless. The contributions throughout the game included sacks by Devon Witherspoon, Byron Murphy, Derick Hall and rookie Rylie Mills. As Maye continued to get rattled, it led to key turnovers. Julian Love called his own interception as we saw in the mid'd up version of the Super Bowl. Byron Murphy recovered a fumble that led to the Seahawks only offensive touchdown by AJ Barner, and a Witherspoon pressure gave Uchenna Nwosu a score to match the Seahawks offensive touchdown output. We tackle the debate around Sam Darnold's performance—praised for poise against pressure and also criticized for a missed end-zone throw and a completion percentage that was among his lowest of the season. Offseason questions emerge along the way. How does Seattle sustain a title run? How should they handle some key free agents like Josh Jobe and Tariq Woolen? Do they need to approaches their big-money extensions for JSN and Witherspoon before making some of the more difficult decisions. Coaching and organizational themes surface too, from Mike McDonald's game planning and halftime adjustments to the team's continuity of culture.

1. Virginia Politics & Redistricting Democrats in Virginia are moving quickly to enact policy changes after recent elections. The new Virginia congressional map heavily favors Democrats (projected 10D–1R), despite the state split being closer to 53% Democrat / 47% Republican. Comparisons to redistricting in Texas, California, and New England, arguing that both parties gerrymander but Virginia’s map is described as especially extreme. 2. Immigration Enforcement Virginia’s governor (referred to as Abigail Spanberger) cut cooperation with ICE. This policy could result in criminal undocumented immigrants being released into communities. 3. Discussion of Supreme Court Oral Arguments on Tariffs Detailed recounting of a Supreme Court case involving presidential authority to impose tariffs. Highlights: Roberts, Gorsuch, and Barrett expressed skepticism toward the administration’s position. Kavanaugh, Thomas, and Alito appeared more open to upholding the tariff authority. Predicts that Chief Justice Roberts may write a majority opinion to uphold tariff powers on institutional grounds. 4. The “Save America Act” House of Representatives passed the act with only one Democrat voting in favor. The act requires: Proof of U.S. citizenship to register to vote. Photo ID to vote. Presented as “common-sense” election integrity legislation. Describes a procedural strategy within existing Senate rules, not abolishing the filibuster. Would force Democrats to perform a talking filibuster (continuous floor speeches). Requires Republicans to maintain 50 senators physically present, possibly for days or weeks. Democrats aim to: Eliminate photo ID laws. Grant statehood to D.C. and Puerto Rico. Offer citizenship and voting rights to undocumented immigrants. Pack the Supreme Court. Voter ID and citizenship proof are extremely popular nationwide with broad bipartisan support. Republicans should force Democrats to publicly defend opposition during a talking filibuster.

As BMIs and weights increase across the US population, there have been increased calls for universal screening for existing DM at entrance to prenatal care, if under 20 weeks. Others, including the ACOG, prefer to screen early those with additional risk factors (like prior GDM HX, prior macrosomia, BMI >30, PCOS, first degree relative with diabetes, or age >40). In July 2024, the ACOG released its publication, “Screening for Gestational and Pregestational Diabetes in Pregnancy and Postpartum”. In this guidance, it states, “At this time, there are insufficient data to support the best screening modality for pregestational diabetes in pregnancy, but consideration can be made to use the same diagnostic criteria as for the nonpregnant population (A1c value 6.5 or higher, or fasting plasma glucose value 126 mg/dL or higher, or 2-hour plasma glucose value 200 mg/dL or higher during a 75-g OGTT, or random plasma glucose value 200 mg/dL or higher in patients with classic hyperglycemia symptoms)”. However, a new proposed protocol has been published in AJOG for early screening for DM in pregnancy. This also describes the differences in diagnosis and care for Standard GDM diagnosed at 24-28 weeks, vs a diagnosis of pregestational DM diagnosis made prior to 20-weeks vs “early” GDM also diagnosed under 20 weeks of gestation.

Doug Stuart interviews Caleb Franz, author of The Conductor: The Story of Reverend John Rankin, Abolitionism's Essential Founding Father. Franz shares the fascinating story of how he discovered and researched this largely forgotten figure from his hometown of Ironton, Ohio. The conversation explores Rankin's pivotal role in the abolition movement, particularly in the Ohio River Valley—a region often overlooked in abolitionist history that typically centers on New England.Franz discusses Rankin's theological arguments against slavery, his work on the Underground Railroad helping thousands of enslaved people escape to freedom, and his profound influence on key historical figures including Harriet Beecher Stowe (whose "Uncle Tom's Cabin" was inspired by Rankin's letters) and Ulysses S. Grant (who studied under Rankin before attending West Point). The episode delves into the research process behind writing historical biography, the intersection of faith and liberty in the abolition movement, and how Rankin's Christian convictions drove his radical opposition to slavery from the 1820s through the Civil War era.Audio Production by Podsworth Media - https://podsworth.com Use code LCI50 for 50% off your first order at Podsworth.com to clean up your voice recordings and also support LCI!Full Podsworth Ad Read BEFORE & AFTER processing:https://youtu.be/vbsOEODpQGs  ★ Support this podcast ★

Some people find their calling in the most unexpected places. And for Brenda Sullivan, that calling happened… in the cemetery. In this two-part conversation, I'm joined by the fascinating, funny, wildly knowledgeable founder of The Gravestone Girls — cemetery artists and historians who are helping people all over the country reconnect with history, symbolism, mortality, and the stories literally carved into stone. I first discovered Brenda's work a couple of years ago when my daughter and I attended one of her talks at a library here in New Hampshire. I honestly didn't know what to expect — I assumed it might be spooky or "oddity-adjacent." But within minutes of listening to her, my entire world expanded. What Brenda does is deeply fact-based, richly historical, and surprisingly emotional. She teaches us that cemeteries are not just places of death — they are places of culture, meaning, artistry, community, and connection. In Part One (Episode 69) Brenda shares her incredible story of leaving behind a high-powered corporate career — what she calls a "soul-sucking day job" — to fully step into the work she truly loved. She talks about: Being a "corporate dropout" and finally changing her seat How a hobby turned into a thriving business and national following Why the cemetery world is much bigger and more mainstream than people assume The surprising hunger people have to be "invited in" to these spaces How gravestones tell us not only who died — but how people lived We also explore the powerful idea that the more specific you get about what you love, the bigger your world becomes. In Part Two (Episode 70) Our conversation deepens into the history and symbolism of early New England burial grounds. Brenda walks us through: The earliest burial practices in the 1600s Why colonial gravestones were meant as messages to the living Winged skulls, hourglasses, soul symbols, and the "scared straight" visual language of death How modern medicine has changed our relationship with mortality Why Victorians picnicked in cemeteries — and what we've lost in our disconnection from death This is one of those conversations that makes you look at something familiar — a graveyard, a headstone, a symbol you've passed a hundred times — and suddenly see an entire world underneath it. Brenda is passionate, hilarious, deeply thoughtful, and proof that following what fascinates you can open doors you never imagined. This episode is split into two parts at around the 42-minute mark — so make sure to listen to both. I cannot wait for you to step into this world with us.   Find Brenda and her work by clicking here.
