Today I'm joined by April Davis, founder of LUMA Luxury Matchmaking—and yes, she's married to a divorce attorney, which gives her a razor-sharp lens on what actually lasts. We dig into modern dating beyond the apps: values vs. chemistry, paradox of choice, readiness, standards, gender roles, and commitment—so real love stops feeling impossible and starts feeling inevitable. 3 Main Takeaways Values beat vibes. Chemistry fades; aligned values keep relationships stable long-term. Choice overload kills connection. The app era fuels paradox of choice and "dating for dismissal." Narrow on what actually matters. Readiness > checklist. Openness, fair conflict, and commitment predict lasting love more than "perfect" specs.     Deep Dive — 3 Core Topics 1) Values Over Chemistry (02:24–03:31) Timestamp: 02:24 What it means: Prioritizing values (character, life goals, family, faith, kids) prevents future mismatch that chemistry can hide. This shifts selection from short-term spark to long-term fit—dramatically reducing avoidable breakups. Notable quote (02:24): "Values are something that is core to who you are… you can't see red flags with rose-colored goggles." Why it matters: When values align, everyday decisions, conflict resolution, money, and parenting stay coherent—creating durability instead of turbulence. 2) Apps, Standards & the Paradox of Choice (11:27–12:20; 04:20–05:24) Timestamp: 11:27 What it means: Infinite swiping feeds a paradox of choice and "dating for dismissal," where attention moves to filtering out instead of letting something good unfold. Over-filtering (height, income, micro-preferences) trades possibility for illusion. Notable quotes: (11:27) "With apps, you have this paradox of choice… 50 shades of gray… dating for dismissal." (04:20–05:24) "Apps are only good for about 10%… someone swiped 2,000 times to get one date." Why it matters: Reducing noise (3–5 non-negotiable values) turns attention from shopping to connecting, improving follow-through, first-date quality, and momentum. 3) Readiness, Gender Expectations & Real Commitment (17:56–19:56; 29:38–30:34; 15:37–17:34) Timestamp: 17:56 What it means: A long checklist often masks fear; readiness looks like an open heart, flexible standards, and willingness to be coached. Add fair fighting and commitment to the relationship "third entity," and longevity rises. Modern gender roles (wanting alpha drive plus deep emotional attunement) can become an impossible ideal—so clarity beats fantasy. Notable quotes: (17:56) "Either they have a loving mindset and an open heart… or they're closed off… and not really ready." (29:38–30:34) "How you argue… fight fair… commitment to the relationship." (15:37–17:34) On shifting gender expectations and the "perfect person" myth. Why it matters: Readiness turns dates into data, conflict into collaboration, and differences into design choices—key levers for resilient partnership.

They discuss the impact of greed and fear on market behavior, the importance of being rules-based, and share insights on their investing approaches. Notable quotes include Howard Marks on how changes in fundamentals filtered through investor psychology produce price changes, and the significance of sentiment change in a bull market. Bill and Brian also reflect on recent financing deals in the sector, the challenges of junior mining investments, and the importance of having an exit strategy. Additionally, they share their perspectives on the gold-silver ratio and the critical role of management integrity in junior mining ventures. 00:00 Introduction 01:07 Investor Psychology and Market Dynamics 03:17 Strategies for Junior Mining Investments 07:57 Greed and Fear in Investing 12:45 Marketing and Promises in the Mining Sector 16:55 Management and Investor Relations 20:08 Greasy founders hire legitimate operators 26:02 ATEX Financing and Dilution Concerns 31:05 Funding Challenges and Market Dynamics 33:20 Accelerator Clauses and Shareholder Concerns 35:01 Rights Offerings Explained 36:09 NexMetals: A Case Study 40:55 Probe Gold Acquisition 42:39 Debating the Gold-Silver Ratio 50:57 Investment Patience and Strategy 55:16 Final Thoughts and Advice Brian's website: https://www.juniorstockreview.com/ Bill's Twitter: https://x.com/MiningStockEdu Sign up for our free newsletter and receive interview transcripts, stock profiles and investment ideas: http://eepurl.com/cHxJ39 Mining Stock Education offers informational content based on available data but it does not constitute investment, tax, or legal advice.

 Would you scan a mysterious QR code just to find out who sent you a surprise package? That's the question kicking off this lively episode of The JB and Sandy Show, where hosts JB and Sandy  dive into the latest happenings in Austin, share personal parenting stories, and expose a new scam that could catch even the savviest among us. This week's show is packed with local flavor and relatable moments. From planning your weekend around Austin's hottest events—like Ryan Bingham's concert at the Moody Amphitheater and the Austin Food and Wine Festival—to the quirks of family life and the importance of making time for connection, JB and Sandy keep it real and entertaining. The hosts swap stories about their daughters' far-flung activities, the challenges of parenting, and the need for dads to find their own community—highlighting the new “Dad's Base” group for fathers seeking camaraderie and support.

What happens when grounding your teenager turns into a weekend of bowling, sleepovers, and full phone privileges? On this episode of The JB and Sandy Show, hosts JB and Sandy  dive into the hilarious and humbling realities of modern parenting, the city's controversial new logo, and the adventures (and anxieties) of sending your child halfway around the world. The show opens with a fiery discussion about Austin's new city logo—a design so unpopular that residents signed petitions and even created better alternatives using AI. Despite public outcry, the city rolled out the logo anyway, leaving JB and Sandy to wonder: “Does anyone in power actually listen to the people?” Their witty banter and sharp observations capture the frustration and humor of local politics. But the heart of this episode is all about family. Sandy recounts his attempt to ground his 16-year-old daughter, only to be completely outmaneuvered. What was meant to be a strict punishment quickly devolved into a series of fun activities, as Sandy admits, “I'm going to ground you more often—because I get to do stuff with you!” The hosts reflect on the differences between disciplining sons and daughters, with Sandy joking, “If that was your son, do you think you'd have caved like that? No, I'd have beat him first. Girls, they just know how to do it.” Tricia (the show's resident disciplinarian and Sandy's partner) provides her perspective, highlighting the importance of consistency and the challenges of parenting in today's world. Her no-nonsense approach balances Sandy's soft spot for their daughter, making for a relatable and entertaining family dynamic. The episode also features:JB's story of helping his daughter prepare for an international trip, only to have his phone “blow up at 3 a.m.” with updates from the airport.Reflections on how technology—from flight tracking to real-time translation AirPods—has changed travel and parenting.Local Austin updates, including Longhorns sports, Texas Stars hockey, and community events.Notable quotes:“Bowling and a sleepover and full access to her phone—all while grounded.”“I realized I really failed at enforcing the grounding.”“She learned nothing. Got to a sleepover. She got to go trick or treating. She learned nothing.”The episode wraps with a reminder to cherish family moments, laugh at your parenting missteps, and stay connected with your community.Call-to-Action Enjoyed the episode?

“Would you become a tattletale if it meant pocketing nearly a million dollars?” That's the provocative question at the heart of this episode of The Sandy Show, where hosts Sandy McIlree and Tricia dive into the wild world of high-stakes snitching, viral lottery fever, and the quirky moments that make everyday life unforgettable.This episode kicks off with Sandy's hilarious confession about a Christmas present inspired by the middle finger and a playful debate over the true value of Little Debbie Christmas tree cakes. As the conversation unfolds, listeners are treated to a blend of humor and real-life dilemmas—from the skyrocketing Mega Millions and Powerball jackpots to the lengths people will go for a chance at fortune. But the real jaw-dropper comes when Sandy and Tricia explore New York City's now-canceled “tattletale bounty” program, where ordinary citizens earned staggering sums—like $895,737—just for reporting idling cars. “If I could make that kind of money, I might step into snitch world,” Sandy admits, while Tricia stands firm: “There's no price. I could be a rat. $800,000. I am not going to be a rat.” Their banter brings both laughter and reflection on the ethics of snitching and the surprising ways people chase easy money. Throughout the episode, Tricia's infectious excitement over growing lottery jackpots and her candid stories about family, favorite drinks, and the challenges of raising a “snitch-hearted” daughter add warmth and relatability. Listeners also get a taste of pop culture nostalgia, from birthday shout-outs to the cancellation of MTV's “Ridiculousness” after 46 seasons. Notable moments include:Sandy's playful negotiation with his daughter over a hypothetical $800 million lottery win.The revelation of “snitch kings” earning life-changing sums for reporting idling cars.Tricia's heartfelt advice on when to speak up and when to “mind your business.”The quirky tradition of “air gongers” and shout-outs to the show's youngest fans.Whether you're here for the laughs, the life lessons, or the chance to win big, this episode delivers a perfect blend of entertainment and insight.  Memorable Quote:“If I could make that kind of money, I might step into snitch world. I just might.” – Tricia“There's no price. I could be a rat. $800,000. I am not going to be a rat.” – Sandy Call to Action Love what you hear?

The managed service provider (MSP) market has surpassed $305 billion and is projected to reach $571 billion by 2033, indicating a strong trend toward consolidation within the sector. In the second quarter of 2025 alone, there were 92 announced mergers and acquisitions, as companies aim to enhance their cybersecurity capabilities and automate operations. Key areas of focus for leading MSPs include operations, talent, security, automation, and compliance, which are essential for navigating the current landscape. Notable transactions include Comcast's acquisition of Nitell and Telus Digital's acquisition of Garrent.Research indicates that while artificial intelligence (AI) investments are expected to rise, particularly in telecommunications for predictive maintenance and network optimization, many AI projects struggle to scale effectively. A recent study from the Remote Labor Index found that top AI models completed less than 3% of assigned freelance tasks, highlighting a gap between expectations and actual performance. Additionally, a report from Fortinet revealed that 87% of cybersecurity professionals believe AI will enhance their roles, yet a significant skills gap persists, with over 4.7 million positions unfilled globally.Further developments include Intuit's launch of its AI-driven system, Intuit Intelligence, designed to streamline decision-making for small business owners, and Adobe's introduction of Firefly Foundry, which offers customized generative AI models for branding. Service Leadership has also released a new benchmarking tool aimed at smaller IT solution providers, enhancing their financial reporting capabilities. These initiatives reflect a growing trend of embedding AI into everyday business tools, which MSPs must navigate.For MSPs and IT service leaders, the implications are clear: the market is maturing rapidly, and providers must adapt by tightening operations, investing in automation, and prioritizing compliance. As AI becomes increasingly integrated into existing systems, MSPs should conduct audits to identify where AI is already active and establish governance frameworks to manage these technologies effectively. The focus should be on leveraging AI to enhance service delivery while ensuring that human oversight remains a critical component of technology management.Three things to know today00:00 From “Digital Transformation” to AI Operations: The MSP and IoT Boom Signals a More Mature IT Services Era05:28 AI's Promise Meets Its Limits: Reports Expose Gaps in Skills, Safety, and Real-World Capability09:22 From Finance to Branding, AI Is Already Inside Your Clients' SaaS Stack — Whether You Put It There or Not This is the Business of Tech.    Supported by:  https://try.auvik.com/dave-switchhttps://cometbackup.com/?utm_source=mspradio&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=sponsorship

Why is the world obsessively fixated on a tiny nation in the Middle East, and what does it mean for Christian parents raising the next generation? In this riveting episode, Catherine asks one of the most urgent questions of our time: What is happening in Israel—and how does it connect to ancient prophecy and our daily parenting? To help answer, she welcomes acclaimed author, filmmaker, and Christian apologist Dinesh D'Souza, whose new documentary, The Dragon’s Prophecy, is based on Jonathan Cahn’s bestselling book and brings biblical prophecy and current events to vivid life. Dinesh D'Souza, whose career spans best-selling novels, blockbuster documentaries, and service in the Reagan White House, brings unparalleled insight to the intersection of faith, history, and politics. In this episode, he unpacks why Israel sits at the center of an ancient spiritual war, why Revelation 12 holds the key to understanding headlines today, and how the battle between good and evil is not just on distant soil—but in every soul. Key highlights include: The chilling reality of October 7, 2023, and never-before-seen footage that reveals the spiritual darkness behind terrorist acts. The core message of The Dragon’s Prophecy: Evil is real, embodied in the biblical “dragon”—and parents must recognize the spiritual war behind the chaos. How ancient battles between Israelites and Philistines eerily parallel today’s conflict, and why biblical prophecy continues to unfold before our eyes. The power of biblical archaeology in verifying the historical accuracy of Scripture—from Pontius Pilate’s existence to the discovery of King David’s palace—arming parents and skeptics alike with facts to defend their faith. Tough questions about modern Israel, replacement theology, and the promises God made to Abraham’s descendants, with thoughtful discussion on both biblical and political identity. Notable moment: “There is a world behind the world and...the events we see are incomplete if we don’t understand them as part of a cosmic struggle between good and evil.” –Dinesh D'Souza As Christian parents, we’re called not just to read the news, but to “discern the moment” (1 Chronicles 12:32)—guiding our children with faith, courage, and wisdom in a time of spiritual war. Don’t miss this eye-opening episode—and consider: How will you prepare your kids not just to survive, but to lead in the times to come?

In this episode of Mining Stock Education, host Brian Leni welcomes Nicole Adshead-Bell to discuss the psychology of participants in the junior mining sector. Listen as Nicole shares her insights on the current state of the gold and copper markets, the importance of profit-taking, and the dynamics driving M&A activity. Learn how understanding investor behavior and market cycles can help you make more informed and profitable investment decisions in the mining sector. Nicole Adshead-Bell is the Director of Cupel Advisory. She is a PhD geologist by trade and has worked in the resource sector for more than 25 years. Her roles within the sector have varied from analyst to M&A facilitator to junior resource company board member. Notable quote from Dr. Adshead-Bell: " None of us can predict the top or the bottom, but I think behavioral characteristics in bull markets are very, very predictable.  There's been really interesting psychological studies done on this, people get more upset with their broker for selling a winning position too early than they do for holding onto a losing position.

Can We Slow — or Reverse — Aging? Telomeres, Telomerase & LongevityClick On My Website Below To Schedule A Free 15 Min Zoom Call:www.Over40FitnessHacks.comOver 40 Fitness Hacks SKOOL Group!Get Your Whoop4.0 Here!Dr. Bill Andrews - Telomere Health & Longevitywww.thegoodinside.com - Touchstone Essentials supplements.Email: BAndrews@SierraSci.comGuest snapshot: Dr. Bill Andrews—biotech veteran and founder of Sierra Sciences—has spent his career chasing a practical way to slow (and ultimately reverse) human aging. Inspired by a childhood mission from his dad to “find a cure for aging,” he helped lead the discovery of human telomerase at Geron in the 1990s.Why we age: Aging isn't great for the individual, but it benefits the species (greater diversity and adaptability). Mechanistically, “wear and tear” accumulates—and our ability to replace damaged cells is capped by the Hayflick limit.Ride tickets analogy: Every time a cell divides it “uses a ticket.” Those tickets are telomeres (the DNA caps on chromosomes). When tickets run out, cells enter senescence and die.Telomerase: In reproductive cells, the enzyme telomerase adds tickets back, keeping telomeres long—why children aren't born “older” than their parents. In most other cells, the telomerase gene is repressed.His team screens plant extracts to dislodge repressor proteins on the telomerase gene “dimmer switch,” aiming to partially turn it back on.Partial activation ≠ reversal, but it can slow telomere shortening (slowing aging). He believes stronger activators that can win the “tug-of-war” and lengthen telomeres meaningfully could arrive in ~1–3 years if progress continues.Andrews licensed several top nutraceutical fractions that, in his assays, induce telomerase expression modestly and include antioxidants/anti-inflammatories to reduce accelerated shortening.Notable: a turmeric fraction without curcumin (their strongest inducer), plus pomegranate, skullcap root, “gal nut,” and others. No “proprietary blend” label—ingredients are listed individually.He stresses Telo-Vital slows aging; occasional anecdotal reversals (hair/vision/sleep) may occur when tissues have critically short telomeres that are easier to re-lengthen.Do something daily. Consistent, enjoyable endurance-style movement can lower inflammation/oxidative stress; stop before it stops being fun.What can accelerate shortening: frequent senolytics (create gaps → more cell division), high alcohol (liver turnover), growth-hormone/“immune boosters” that drive cell division, and chronic inflammation/oxidative stress.What helps slow acceleration: anti-inflammatory/antioxidant strategies, better glucose control (he mentions a product that “converts sugar to fiber”), mitochondrial support like urolithin A and NAD/Niagen (NR).Product: Telo-Vital (Touchstone Essentials) — site: thegoodinside.comDr. Andrews (science questions): BAndrews@SierraSci.comHe can share recommended YouTube talks on telomeres/telomerase and aging.Bottom line: Telomere shortening is a central, measurable driver of aging. Today's tools may slow that process; Andrews is racing to make meaningful lengthening practical next.If you're interested in online personal training or being a guest on my podcast, "Over 40 Fitness Hacks," you can reach me at brad@over40fitnesshacks.com or visit my website at:www.Over40FitnessHacks.comAdditionally, check out my Yelp reviews for my local business, Evolve Gym in Huntington Beach, at https://bit.ly/3GCKRzV

Over the last couple of years, he has changed gears and returned to the genre that first made him an avid reader: horror. JH has been cranking out horror novels and finding a great deal of success with them. We catch up with James and discuss his transition to horror and what that has been like after writing five previous historical fiction novels.  His most recent release that came out in September, Spider to the Fly, is dark horror suspense that deals with a serial killer, a true crime influencer, and a family with some bizarre dynamics.    And for our book rec section, we are talking about notable nonfiction. These are nonfiction books we've read in the last year that have made us think differently about a topic or stood out for us in some way (even though these books might not have been published in the last year). We'll talk about a micro-history, a biography, a true crime, a memoir, a study of morality and politics, and a niche book about cussing.    Books Mentioned In This Episode:   1- Spider to the Fly by J.H. Markert  2- Molokai by Alan Brennert 3- A White Wind Blew by James Markert 4- Nightmare Man by J.H. Markert  5- Mr. Lullaby by J. H. Markert 6- Sleep Tight by J.H.

What if the cultural chaos we’re witnessing isn’t just political or social—but a visible sign of ancient, unseen spiritual forces at work? In this riveting episode, Catherine welcomes back New York Times bestselling author and esteemed spiritual leader Jonathan Cahn. Known for his prophetic insight and viral teachings, Jonathan brings parents face-to-face with revelations from his explosive new book, The Avatar: The Return of the Ancients and the Future of America. With global headlines swirling—hostage releases in the Middle East, political shake-ups at home—Jonathan argues that these events are rooted in spiritual battles dating back thousands of years. He takes listeners on a journey through scripture and current history, demonstrating that ancient “gods” and principalities are reclaiming influence in our modern world, often in ways that fly under the radar of the Western mind. Key insights from the episode: The spiritual war behind the headlines: Jonathan unpacks how events like the October 7 attacks in Israel and miraculous hostage returns are spiritual manifestations, echoing patterns seen throughout biblical history. America’s spiritual crossroads: Drawing from The Return of the Gods, Jonathan reveals the “dark trinity” of Baal, Ashtoreth/Ishtar, and Molech—ancient entities driving materialism, sexual confusion, and the destruction of life in today’s society. The avatar phenomenon: Through spellbinding personal anecdotes from India, Cuba, and Africa, Jonathan explains how avatars—human embodiments of these ancient spirits—are still being worshipped globally, and how this practice is stealthily influencing Western cultures and politics. Surprising connections in U.S. leadership: Catherine and Jonathan dive into uncanny parallels between political figures (including Kamala Harris and Donald Trump) and ancient gods and biblical leaders, even uncovering astonishing links between their birthdates and sacred calendar readings. The warning and the call: While God sometimes uses unlikely leaders (the "Jehu" template) to roll back spiritual darkness, ultimate hope for America rests not in politicians but in a nationwide revival—a return to the worship of the one true God, starting in our homes and families. Notable moments: Jonathan’s miraculous encounters with spiritual warfare overseas and their effect on communities. Catherine’s research into how avatars are selected and worshipped in modern cultures—and the resulting persecution of Christians and Jews. The uncanny timing of U.S. leaders’ births with ancient holy days and scriptural readings. As Jonathan cautions: “If we change the government, but we don’t change the hearts of the people, the unchanged hearts are going to change the government back... The only thing that can save America is revival.” About the guest: Jonathan Cahn has been named along with Billy Graham as one of the top spiritual leaders to have radically impacted our world in modern times. He has spoken at the United Nations, on Capitol Hill, to Members of Congress, and to millions around the world. Every one of his books, starting with The Harbinger to The Dragon’s Prophecy, has become a New York Times Bestseller. He is recognized as a prophetic voice for our times. His teachings and prophetic messages on YouTube have received over 100 million views. He leads Beth Israel at the Jerusalem Center in Wayne, New Jersey — and Hope of the World ministry, a world outreach of God’s word and compassion to the world’s most needy.

Episode Description "What does it take to turn heartbreak into history?" That's the question at the heart of this unforgettable episode of Kent Hance, The Best Storyteller in Texas Podcast. Kent Hance dives deep into the remarkable life of Dick “Night Train” Lane—a football legend whose story begins with abandonment as a newborn in Austin, Texas, and ends with an NFL record that still stands over 70 years later. Lane's journey is one of resilience, grit, and the power of believing in yourself when no one else will. Listeners are treated to vivid tales of Lane's early days at Anderson High School, his time in the Army, and his serendipitous entry into professional football—where a simple bus ride and a bold request changed his life forever. Kent shares how Lane's nickname was born, recounting the legendary moment when “Night Train derails Choo-Choo Justice” became a headline, marking Lane's arrival as a force in the NFL. The episode explores themes of perseverance, friendship, and the changing landscape of sports, highlighting Lane's relationships with fellow players like Cloyce Box and Bobby Lane. Kent's storytelling brings to life memorable moments, such as Lane's dice-shooting prowess and his philosophy: “Sevens or elevens are gonna come back up again sometime”—a testament to his belief that good luck always returns. Notable quotes and moments include: “He was born here in Austin and some people off of East 12th Street, heard him crying. And he had been wrapped in some newspapers and put in a dumpster.” “Night Train Lane derails Choo-Choo Justice.” “Sevens or elevens are gonna come back up. Which, he's talking about good luck or bad luck. It's gonna come back up. One way or the other.” Kent also reflects on Lane's impact off the field, from his work with underprivileged youth in Detroit to his trailblazing role in advertising, and calls for Austin to honor one of its greatest citizens.

This is an episode recorded at the PIA VADC conference in Virginia Beach with my man Byron Roberts.  It is a fast, on-the-ground conversation about how Openly built for independent agents, why speed still matters, and how data is shifting from rearview mirror to windshield. Quick recapOpenly's origin story is agent-first. Founders Ty Harris and Matt Duffy asked agents what they actually needed, then shipped a three-question quote experience built to find “diamonds in the rough,” not write everything in sight. The company doubled down on listening loops like ACE, its Agency Council of Excellence, to sanity-check product decisions, fix friction fast, and keep writing business during a stubborn hard market. They are rolling into PL Rating in key states to cut keystrokes, and they see the next frontier as forward-looking data that helps carriers price for tomorrow's weather, not yesterday's. Key takeawaysBuilt by and for independent agents, not DTC. Choice and counsel are the strategy. Three inputs to quote, then verify details to bind accurately and quickly. Think seconds, not hours. ACE council gives Openly real-time agent feedback and a promise to report back on changes. Smart underwriting beats growth at any cost. Openly tightens or tweaks instead of pulling out. PL Rating integrations are in motion to reduce double entry and speed comparisons. Data is shifting from historical to predictive. Actuaries need “crystal balls,” not just rearview mirrors. Notable quotes“Tell me I can't, I'll show you I will.” Byron on persistence. “Three questions, name, date of birth, and address. We can get it.” On the quoting thesis. “We're staying open for these agencies. We don't tighten everything down or pull out.” On disciplined appetite. “We used to look at historical data. Now we need crystal balls.” On forward-looking pricing.

Embracing chaos as a source for positive change is a powerful mindset shift. Instead of viewing disruption as a disaster to be resisted, you can learn to see it as the energy of possibility—a necessary period of deconstruction before a better creation can emerge. This process requires retaining hope and using the pause created by the chaos to your advantage. 1. Retaining Hope: The Inner Anchor in Chaos Focusing on Agency (What You Can Control): Chaos is defined by what's out of control. Retain hope by aggressively focusing on your immediate sphere of influence: your daily routine, your physical health, your choice of response, and your mindset. Small acts of personal order create pockets of hope. Practicing "Hopecore": Actively look for and amplify positive elements. This means limiting overwhelming news consumption, surrounding yourself with supportive people, and intentionally engaging in activities that bring you genuine joy or a sense of purpose. 2. Seeing Chaos as a Source for Change Chaos is, by definition, a state where old structures have broken down, making it the most fertile ground for transformation. The Deconstruction Principle: A chaotic event (a job loss, a global crisis, a relationship change) doesn't just destroy; it clears the slate of outdated assumptions, commitments, and habits that were holding you back. This forced deconstruction reveals what truly matter. 3. Bending Change for Positive: The "Positive Chaos" Mindset To "bend" the energy of chaos for positive outcomes, you must adopt an active, experimental approach. 4. Using the Pause: Transformational Stillness Chaos often imposes a pause—a stop to old momentum—which is a profound gift for reflection and intention. Mindful Observation: Use the pause for mindfulness, not just passive waiting. Observe your situation without judgment, letting go of the ego's need to control the external world. Identify the core values and priorities that the chaos has brought into sharp relief. Strategic Repositioning: A pause is not inaction; it is re-action. It's the time to plan your next move, not just repeat your last one. #AnxietyRelief #StressReduction #MentalHealthMatters #SelfSoothe #StopTheScroll #Mindfulness #MindfulLiving #InnerPeace #PresentMoment #BeHereNow #DailyCalm   NaNoWriMo is No Mo;; While no single entity has officially replaced NaNoWriMo, the closure spurred a surge of new and existing independent writing challenges designed to fill the void and continue the spirit of communal novel writing. Notable alternatives and new competitions that have emerged for November (and often for other months like April) include: Novel November (NovNov) by ProWritingAid: A 50,000-word challenge with workshops, daily co-writing, and a collaborative spirit, supported by various writing companies. Reedsy Novel Sprint: Follows the classic NaNoWriMo timeline and word count target but offers prizes and professional development support. AutoCrit's Novel 90 Writing Challenge: An extended challenge running for 90 days (often Oct 1 - Dec 31) to allow for a more sustainable pace in completing a first draft. The Order of the Written Word (O2W): An alternative founded by a former Municipal Liaison, specifically positioned as a space for authors against the use of AI. Other Platforms: Gamified platforms and tools like 4thewords, Shut Up & Write!, and Pacemaker continue to offer community-driven goal tracking and support. The Parable From Calculus of the Street to Blockchain Building A New World Ledger Verification at a Time. ”In the late hours, when Marcus recited proofs from memory and Sarah spun stories of exile and resilience, I remembered the calculus of the streets—the way information pulsed through networks invisible to those in power. We weren't inventing anything new; we were translating old survival strategies into modern code. We were reclaiming what was always ours: the right to build systems that served those who'd been left out.” Natasha Sanderson, The Collab; The Trickster: A Parable “The hypocrisy was sickening. Christian America, preaching order and self-sufficiency, was wholly dependent on the slave labor of the workhouses. In turn, its own supply lines were so weak they were being raided by common criminals. The system was eating itself alive. Their fixed world was a complete lie. We were witnessing the final, brutal truth of the Pox era: the collapse of centralized power created not just chaos, but a vacuum that anyone—whether a black market trader or a Trickster prophet —could exploit. This chaos, this failure of the old world order, was the fertile ground in which Earthseed was even able to survive. The more the surface world failed, the more vital our subterranean self-sufficiency, our digital Collab, and our hydroponic gardens became. We were a tiny, living island of order in a sea of unraveling lies.” Reality TV...Continue the Cycle of Absudity...Non-Black commentors may want to keep Dr. Wendy Osefo's name out of your mouth...The Belles from Celebration of Life to Glendale Man-trum...Reconciliation through Weed Muffins...
