Most people think collapse is an explosion.A wall falls. A city burns. A single date on a timeline.But that's almost never how it happens.Rome didn't “fall in 476.” That's the lie.Rome faded — slowly — through a series of rational “fixes” that hollowed the system from the inside.In this flagship episode, I explain what I call **The Roman Pattern**:When a civilization gets stressed, it adapts… and those adaptations repeat in predictable ways.Rome's pressure points were always the same:1) Money (debasement → inflation → trust collapse)2) Borders & people (migration stress → deals → fragmentation)3) Power (emergency authority → permanent rule by decree)And here's the twist:Rome survived again and again — by becoming something else.Until “Roman” stopped meaning anything real.If you want to spot collapse signals in real-time — and understand what today is rhyming with — this is the foundation.Subscribe for more episodes breaking down the patterns of empire decline.

Here's the truth: you can love someone deeply and still be exhausted by the weight of their unaddressed struggles. When a partner refuses to seek support, it doesn't just impact them—it impacts you, the relationship, and your sense of safety and stability. So how do you know when staying is supportive… and when it's slowly eroding your own wellbeing? This episode dives into the emotional tug-of-war between loyalty, love, limits, and self-preservation.----more---- Inside This Episode:

For many of us, evangelism can feel like a huge weight and completely undoable—often because we tend to think it's all on us. The truth is that God does the work, we just need to be faithful to share our story and his story. Each week we're looking at both God's part and our part in being Ready Storytellers. As you enter the places God sends you, notice where he is already at work and trust him to open hearts as you engage. Remember, your part is to open your mouth and engage in conversation in the ordinary places he's sent you. God's part is opening hearts.

In this Daily Shift, Celeste explores the difference between negativity and discernment. Noticing patterns, behaviors, and repeated dynamics isn't being critical — it's being observant. This episode is a reminder that clarity doesn't make you harsh or unkind. It helps you see what's consistent, especially as you grow and stop over-accommodating. You're allowed to trust what you notice. Small shifts create big change.

When Travel, Humor & Human Connection Collide: A Joyful Conversation with Melissa Rodway Some of the best stories on The Debbie Nigro Show start with a "premonition." You know… that little voice that says to someone, "I should reach out to Debbie." And when that voice belongs to someone with great energy, curiosity, and a whole lotta heart? I listen. That's exactly how I connected with Melissa Rodway—Toronto-based travel storyteller, longtime host of Fly Travel Radio, part-time adventurer, occasional stand-up comic, and author of the five-star Amazon hit The People You Meet. And let me tell you… this conversation was pure joy. From Airport Observations to Life Adventures Melissa's book was born from heartfelt emails she sent home while traveling through Southeast Asia and China—emails so good, friends begged for more. Sixteen years later, she finally turned them into a book. (Proof that timing is everything, people!) Right out of the gate, she hooks you with humor—like watching President Obama on TV in an airport while wondering why the woman next to her didn't care… "Maybe she already has dental."

Lately, it's been hitting hard: the soreness lasts longer, the tiredness feels deeper, and suddenly the entertainment choices say more about your age than you want to admit. In this conversation, we talk about that quiet realization that sneaks up on you — the moment you realize you've drifted into “old man” territory without a formal announcement.It starts with background noise. Instead of new shows or edgy comedies, it's comfort TV from the '90s — The Drew Carey Show, familiar sitcoms, documentaries you don't really have to watch closely. Stuff you can listen to while working. Stuff you already know. Stuff that feels safe. And once you notice it, you really notice it.We also get into hobbies and nostalgia, including a trip to a card show that turned into something way more meaningful than expected. No interest in modern cards. No chase for value. Just a box of old baseball cards from the '50s through the '80s, stories about collecting with dads, memories unlocked for about eight bucks and 45 minutes of conversation. Sometimes it's not about the item — it's about the connection and the feeling it brings back.There's a lot here about aging quietly. Turning 50 doesn't come with a switch, but it does seem to flip something in your brain. Suddenly documentaries sound better than new dramas. Long-form podcasts where people just talk for hours feel more interesting than tightly produced, fast-paced content. You don't need to agree with the person — you just want to hear how they think.We also talk about how spouses experience aging differently. One person leans into documentaries and nostalgia, the other unwinds with Hallmark movies. Predictable stories, familiar beats, no stress. And honestly? That makes sense. Sometimes relaxation isn't about being surprised — it's about knowing exactly where something is going.This episode isn't about complaining. It's about noticing change, laughing at it a little, and realizing that comfort, curiosity, and nostalgia aren't signs of giving up — they're signs of knowing what actually works for you now.Check out my work at https://www.cleveland.com/staff/cpugh/Support the podcast at https://linktr.ee/ChrisPughEdits#GettingOlder, #MiddleAge, #Nostalgia, #AgingGracefully, #OldManEnergy, #PodcastConversation, #LifeReflections, #ComfortTV, #90sTV, #DocumentaryLife, #LongFormPodcasts, #BaseballCards, #Memories, #GrowingOlder, #LifeTalk, #CasualConversation, #PodcastClip, #EntertainmentTalk, #FamilyLife, #Perspective

Get all set for the Sixth Sunday in Ordinary Time Time with Father Eric Johnson.SummaryIn this episode of 'All Set for Sunday', host Jeff Traylor and Father Eric Johnson discuss the themes of freedom, choice, and the call to holiness as they prepare for Lent. They explore the significance of the Gospel readings, emphasizing the importance of inner conversion and the role of the Holy Spirit in guiding believers. The conversation also touches on practical aspects of faith, such as communion practices and the dynamics of seating in church, highlighting the communal nature of worship and the personal journey of faith.TakeawaysGod gives us real freedom, life or death, good or evil.Our choices matter and have real consequences.God's wisdom is revealed through the Spirit, not human intellect.The call to holiness requires inner conversion and self-reflection.We must be open to the Holy Spirit's guidance in our lives.Desiring to please God is the first step towards holiness.We cannot achieve transformation on our own; we need God's help.Faith is a communal journey, reflected in church practices.People often have their own seats in church, reflecting their habits.Noticing absences in church can indicate a sense of community.

Most mornings, we wake up and immediately impose our agenda on the day. To-do lists, productivity goals, anxiety about what we're behind on. We treat the day like a blank slate we need to fill with our plans.But what if days have their own character? What if a grey February morning asks something different from you than a bright July one? What if you can't actually plan well until you've listened to what's already happening?In this episode, you'll learn a simple morning practice: step outside, notice three things (weather, light, sound), and ask the day what it's asking of you, before you decide what you need from it.What you'll practice:Noticing what's actually present (weather, light, quality of air) without judgmentAsking "what does this day need?" instead of "what do I need to accomplish?"Listening with your whole body for the day's answerStarting your day in relationship rather than extractionPerfect for: Anyone who feels disconnected from their days, rushes through mornings on autopilot, struggles with rigid planning that doesn't account for how they actually feel, or wants to practice reciprocity with the world around them.-- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- --All of the Magick:The A Pinch of Magick App:IPhone - download on the App StoreAndroid - download pn the Google PlayOur (free) Magickal Communities: Join UsMagickal JournalFive Minutes of Magick Amazon UKFive Minutes of Magick Amazon USWebsitewww.MagickalHabits.comInstagramFor Magick: Click hereFor a Sacred Pause in Nature: Click hereFor CharmCasting: Click hereFor Merlin my Dog: Click here

Embracing Compassion: A Journey through Mindfulness and Resilience Welcome.This conversation is one I've been sitting with for a while. It was originally published in November on World Compassion Day in 2025. I had the chance to be interviewed by Jesse Spurr and Liz Crowe, from the 5 Things Podcast at Metro North, and together we explored compassion - not as a theory or a nice idea, but as something deeply practical. Something we come back to again and again when life is painful, uncertain, or overwhelming. I joined the conversation as a consumer representative and lived‑experience advocate, and also as someone who's still very much learning what it means to meet myself with kindness in the middle of real life. What unfolded was a grounded, honest exploration of what it means to be human.   Noticing suffering, instead of running from it One of the things we spent time with was our relationship to suffering. So often, our instinct is to push discomfort away - to distract, override, or judge ourselves for feeling what we feel. And I get that. I do it too. But what we talked about was what happens when we pause long enough to actually notice our experience. When we let fear, anxiety, or sadness be there without immediately trying to fix it or make it go away. When we approach suffering with curiosity instead of resistance, something shifts. The stress around the emotion softens. We remember that these feelings aren't showing up because we're broken or failing, but because we're human, living on the earth at this moment in time. Mindfulness, in this sense, isn't about calming down. It's about turning toward what's already here.   Choosing self‑kindness over self‑judgment Self‑compassion sits at the heart of how I think about emotional resilience. Through many conversations over the years, one thing keeps becoming clearer: harsh self‑judgment doesn't lead to lasting growth. Kindness does. When we meet ourselves with warmth, especially when things aren't going well, we create the conditions for real change. Not forced improvement, but sustainable wellbeing. The kind that allows us to keep showing up for our lives and for the people around us. This isn't about letting ourselves off the hook. It's about recognising that shame and self‑criticism are heavy loads to carry, and that we don't actually do our best work from that place.   Remembering our common humanity Another thread we explored was the idea of common humanity. There's something profoundly regulating about remembering that we're not alone in our struggles. That others, in their own ways, are navigating pain, uncertainty, chronic illness, emotional distress, or loss. When we intentionally connect with that shared experience, isolation loosens its grip. Even just a little. Whether the pain is physical or emotional, recognising that this is part of being human can bring a sense of steadiness and belonging, especially during moments when life feels relentless.   The power of simple, supportive touch We also talked about touch, something so simple, and yet so powerful. Appropriate, supportive touch, including touch we offer ourselves, can help calm the nervous system. It can release chemicals associated with safety and connection. It can remind the body that it's not alone. If you're open to it, you might even try this now: placing a hand gently on your heart. Let it rest there for about 20 seconds. There's no need to analyse what you feel. No need to label it. Just notice the sensations that are present. Sometimes compassion doesn't need words. Sometimes it's just a felt sense.   Turning inward so we can meet others more fully One thing that feels increasingly clear to me is this: our capacity to be compassionate with others begins with how we relate to ourselves. When we tend to our own inner world, when we slow down, practice presence, and respond rather than react, we create a more stable foundation. From there, kindness flows more naturally outward. We talked about mindfulness and self‑compassion practices not as self‑improvement tools, but as ways of becoming more available. More grounded. Less pulled around by reactivity.   A moment to pause together We closed the conversation with a short mindfulness practice. Just ninety seconds. A hand on the heart. A few slow breaths. Noticing the stillness between each inhale and exhale. It's a small reminder that even in busy, noisy lives, moments of grounding are always available. Mental clarity isn't something we earn, it's something we return to.   Thank you for being here. As you reflect on this conversation, I hope you're able to offer yourself the same compassion you so readily extend to others. May you find steadiness in your own experience, and a sense of connection in knowing you don't have to navigate any of this alone. We're all learning how to meet life as it is together.

In Episode 92 of Protect It All, host Aaron Crow sits down with Corey LeBleu, founder of Relix Security and seasoned penetration tester, for a candid look at what actually causes organizations to get compromised and why fundamentals still matter more than the latest security trends. Drawing from years of red-team and penetration-testing experience, Corey shares real stories from the field: forgotten printers, unmanaged IoT devices, legacy systems no one owns anymore, and misconfigurations hiding in plain sight. Together, Aaron and Corey unpack why asset visibility, patching, and change management continue to be the weakest links - even as AI and automation enter the security conversation. You'll learn: Why old printers, IoT devices, and “temporary” systems are prime attack paths What most organizations misunderstand about pen testing and red teaming How poor asset inventory and change management undermine security programs The real risks behind shadow IT and unmanaged tools Where AI helps in pen testing and where experience still wins Why mastering the basics beats chasing new security gadgets every time Whether you're a security professional, IT leader, or someone looking to break into cybersecurity, this episode delivers practical, no-nonsense lessons from the front lines - focused on what actually reduces risk. Tune in to hear why cybersecurity success still starts with the fundamentals - only on Protect It All.

Judging others can feel instinctive—especially when we think we see someone’s motives clearly. Yet Scripture reminds us that our focus on others often reveals what’s in our own hearts. Matthew 7:3 challenges us to examine ourselves before pointing out the faults of others. This devotional explores how a critical spirit can be transformed into a heart of blessing, freeing us to walk in purity and God’s favor. Intersecting Faith & Life Reflect on these questions: When do you find yourself judging or critiquing others? How might God want you to adjust your heart and your perspective? What would it look like to bless someone who frustrates or challenges you? How can letting go of control over others’ actions deepen your relationship with God? Do you want to listen ad-free?

She is only on social media because she wants people to see her, not because she really cares about anyone or Jesus... She's really in it for herself, and she wants everyone online to know—where she's traveling, what she is doing, how she is looking. My mind started to go down this critical thinking track again. That is—until I stopped—and then I hung my head down in shame. The hard truth is—I have judged so many. I have sized up people's intent online. I have sized up and surmised people's wrong motives. I made judgments about people's hearts that only God can know. I have hardened my heart towards people who are even doing the will of God... by deciding they are doing it for attention, for public perception, or for their own recognition. I hung my head down, saying, "God, what do I know?" Only God knows. And what I am judging is what I am walking in. Meaning, I think it is about them, but what I am seeing is actually about me. It is worth taking a second to consider. "Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye?" (Matt. 7:3) If I spot it, I likely got it. When push comes to shove, or when truth comes to light—I am doing what I am judging. I am seeking attention. I sometimes do things so others can see me. I have wrong motives. No wonder God has shut doors on me; in His grace and love, He wants me to see rightly, so I can then move powerfully with a pure heart. In His saying no, He has created a special room for me to examine my heart. I also see that as I rectify my heart, there is great hope for big, yes opportunities from God. The truth is, other people's motives are not my issue. My motive is. What they do is none of my business. Now I can see that I have been wrong. Dead wrong. But now I turn back to Christ. As I repent of this critical spirit and my wrong motives, they are removed as far as the East is from the West (Ps. 103:12). Here, I can do a new thing to defeat this critical spirit: I can bless rather than distress others... What does this look like? It looks like: Noticing when I am criticizing. Stopping that mental track. Ditching making them my business. Praying a blessing over them instead. Essentially, I can stop, bless, and then progress onward. Their motives are not my business. Me, keeping a pure heart? That's the business I am to be about. Intersecting Faith & Life: When do you find yourself judging or critiquing people? How might God want you to adjust course? What would it look like for you to bless those who curse you? What would it look like for you to let go of things or people you cannot control?

Welcome to our 100th podcast episode!In the last episode, we discussed permitting yourself to trust your instincts. Today, we continue that discussion, diving even deeper into the topic.Tuning InHorses are constantly communicating their needs, but we often stop noticing the subtle ways they demonstrate how they feel physically, emotionally, and instinctually. By slowing down, tuning in, calming down, and asking what they need, we can start seeing them clearly again. Physical SilenceEarly intervention means noticing whispers of pain before they escalate. Horses often show early discomfort through subtle cues, such as stiffness, girth sensitivity, or reluctance to move, but those signals are often dismissed as personality quirks. Ignoring physical signs can ultimately lead to chronic health problems.Emotional SilenceWhen horses express anxiety or stress, and it is dismissed or medicated rather than addressed, they stop communicating their emotional needs. Separation anxiety, behavioral stress, and high arousal are not problems to suppress. They're messages that require consistent attention, gradual training, and emotional support to rebuild trust.Instinctual SilenceIgnoring the natural biology of a horse (Social needs, movement requirements, and grazing behavior) creates systemic stress, metabolic dysfunction, and delayed healing. With long-term confinement, isolation, or mismanaged diets, horses become quiet, masking their real health and welfare needs.Human AwarenessOur own anxiety, busyness, or problem-focused mindset can block communication. Horses mirror our nervous state, so pausing, grounding yourself, and observing calmly allows subtle signals to emerge. Daily wellness check-ins, curiosity-driven observation, and tracking patterns will help you identify root causes before problems escalate.Re-establishing CommunicationShift from “What's wrong?” to “What does my horse need?” Focus on body, mind, and spirit. Pause, breathe, and observe before taking action. Small, consistent practices, including meditative observation and affirmations, can help you maintain a focused mindset, reinforce trust, and encourage your horse to start communicating once again.Tracking Patterns Observe your horse's energy, movement, social behavior, and emotional responses every day. Look for correlations with diet, herd dynamics, weather, or schedule changes. Noticing patterns allows early intervention, supports holistic well-being, and prevents symptoms from worsening.Prevention and Wellness Horses never stop talking. By creating space to listen and responding thoughtfully, you become a true health advocate. Supporting wellness instead of chasing symptoms fosters partnership, helps catch issues early, and leverages your horse's innate wisdom for better health outcomes.Links and resources:Connect with Elisha Edwards on her website.Healing Horses their Way: Get more information and join the waitlist.

The sermon centers on the pervasive spiritual and emotional noise in the soul—rooted in sin, pride, fear, and unbelief—that disrupts peace, hinders spiritual growth, and damages physical and relational health. Drawing from Matthew 11:28–30, it calls believers to a radical shift: not through self-effort or worldly solutions, but by coming to Jesus in humility, surrendering to His yoke, and learning meekness and lowliness of heart. True rest is found not in fixing external circumstances, but in abiding in Christ, trusting His sovereignty, and allowing His peace to rule the heart, which in turn restores the body, transforms relationships, and enables faithful witness in a broken world.

I spoke with author and coach Robbie Swale about how leaders, coaches and experts can feel less overwhelmed and make clearer choices in complex times. His new book, The Power to Choose: Finding Calm and Connexion in a Complex World, is the backbone of our conversation. It shows simple ways to shift perspective, use curiosity when you're stuck, and choose what actually deserves your time. If you're juggling difficult conversations, packed calendars and competing priorities, the ideas Robbie shares will help you decide and act with less friction.Three key areas we cover

Welcome back to our weekend Cabral HouseCall shows!   This is where we answer our community's wellness, weight loss, and anti-aging questions to help people get back on track!   Check out today's questions:    Will: Hi Dr Cabral, Thank you for giving us the opportunity to ask you questions. I've learned so much from other people's questions! I have two of my own. 1. Regarding your past podcast on the importance of broccoli and garlic. I travel a lot for work. When I travel and can't get broccoli or garlic, would it be ok to take a broccoli and garlic supplement. ? 2. I recently purchased the equililife mushroom supplement. Do you recommend taking it all year round or just in the winter. Thanks so much! Will   Carol: Dr Cabral, I would like to start by thanking you for all the information you freely give. I've been listening to your podcast almost since it started and I have been able to make positive changes in my life and my family's. I am a healthy, active 62 year old woman. I walk 5 to 10 miles most days. I do strength training 3 to 5 times a week plus cardio a couple days a week. Through diet and exercise I have been able to maintain my weight most of my adult life. If my weight started to go up I would make adjustments in my diet (which was usually from getting sloppy with my diet). Since 2017 I've done your detox at least 3 times a year (I just haven't been able to swing 4), and they usually help me lose the few pounds I gained and put me back on track with my eating. For the last few years, however, my weight has been creeping up higher and nothing (not even the detoxes) have helped me lose the added weight. I've tried everything I could think of, but my weight continues to go up instead of down. I went through menopause 10 years ago. I'm at a loss at what to do, but I definitely don't want to continue to gain weight. Do you have any thoughts or suggestions? Thank you, Carol                                                                                                                                                                                  Mohamed: Good morning to you Doctor Cabral and all the listeners. Grateful for all that you do. My question is regarding a sort of pinch like feeling on my left side (near heart). On and off randomly.. did blood work and EKG (normal findings). Ran minerals and Metals.. on the higher side for K & N.. Mg green and Calcium (leaning towards high). Other minerals were low, except phosphorus (slightly high) Noticing bloating after meals.. could leaky gut be related to the occasional pinch feeling I get… it's either that or cortisol.. Which lab should I run (can only do 1).. Taking Omega3 support, DNS, Magnesium and exercising twice a week.. I'm a 27 year old man. Noticing new onset fatigue, bloating.. A bit worried about my heart.. thanks.. What can help, proteolytic enzymes, Apple cider Vinegar before meals. Or B vitamins. Thoughts?    Cheryl: Morning, My 73 year old dad has type 2 diabetes. He is otherwise in good health, an active golfer, is about 165lbs and walks daily. My parents are old school and believe everything the dr says. Recently, his dr just uped his metformin to 2x a day from 1x and put him on a pill for his A1C. I am annoyed that the meds are just increased instead of looking at the root cause. They recently saw a dietician who said it is not reversable which I know is not at all true. My mom cooks healthy meals but my dad does have a sweet tooth. When he wants something sweet it is often sugar/free which is terrible and full of chemicals. I do not agree with all of the sugar free stuff/sweetners and try go get them to choose different things-monkfruit/coconut sugar but the dietician recommended the splenda type stuff. would love to help my dad reverse this. Any suggestions where to start would be appreciated. Thank you:)    Elizabeth: Hi Dr Cabral! Thank you for the amazing work that you do! My 80 year old mother has been experiencing consistent burning mouth syndrome for the past 12 years. She had tried all the conventional methods, gabapentin, CT scan etc and nothing has helped. I recently read that the drop in estrogen during menopause could be the cause. What do you think and any recommendations?

Noticing silence as a pattern in a relationship can be unsettling, especially when it brings more questions than answers. In this episode, I share five gentle ways to steady yourself when unspoken communication starts to feel confusing or heavy. This conversation isn't about confronting or fixing silence, but about supporting yourself as awareness begins to form and learning to stay grounded while clarity unfolds. - - - - - - - - - - - - Want that chapter checklist just Click Here!

Javah pulls up and him + Nelson get into the kind of dating talk that makes people argue in the comments: standards, ambition, and why “I don't hang with you anymore” usually translates to you've got no motion (plus the difference between being supportive vs. carrying dead weight). Then the convo swings into the real scary side of modern life—AI everywhere, data breaches getting brushed off with weak refunds, and platforms digging through your history like it's just “normal” now—while they joke through the fact that none of us are as private as we think.Find Javah at https://distrokid.com/hyperfollow/javah/the-super-angry-superstar-2

You just don't know you're fighting it yet.**In 1884, Edwin Abbott wrote *Flatland* - a mathematical romance about a two-dimensional world where beings live as shapes on a plane, unable to perceive the third dimension of depth. He thought he was writing social satire.**He was actually writing a transmission about 2026.**About YOU.Living in a reality you think is solid, complete, “realistic” - while being completely blind to dimensions you can't perceive.**Your worth measured in 2D metrics:** Credentials. Salary. Followers. Job titles.**Your identity flattened to geometry:** How many “sides” you've accumulated in the game of status.**Your future planned on a horizontal plane:** Assuming linear time, guaranteed tomorrows, safe predictability.**You are A Square. And you don't even know you're trapped.**-----## What if I told you there's a vertical dimension hiding in plain sight?**Not “up” in some abstract spiritual sense.**But **UP** as in: *What becomes visible when death shatters your 2D certainty?*When you're fired after 26 years and your identity evaporates.When someone you love faces mortality and all your careful plans dissolve.When you turn fifty and realize you don't fit in the traditional game anymore.**These aren't tragedies. These are dimensional initiations.**Moments when the **Sphere** - a being from a higher dimension - enters your flat world and shows you: *Everything you thought was solid is just a cross-section.*-----## This episode activates your Reticular Activating System.That part of your brain that filters reality - deciding what you notice and what you ignore.**After this episode, your RAS will be tuned to see Flatland everywhere:**- In conversations where people brag about credentials- In systems designed to keep you flat and measurable- In your own thoughts when you catch yourself playing the 2D game- **In the moments when death whispers: “None of this is real”****Once activated, you can't deactivate it.**You'll start seeing the prison bars. The dimensional limitations. The game beneath the game.**And you won't be able to unsee it.**-----## This isn't a book review. This is an initiation.I've been lifted out of Flatland three times:- **Fired after 26 years** (identity death - the 2D game of job = worth revealed as illusion)- **Wife fighting cancer** (mortality confrontation - the future I was planning for might not exist)- **Turning fifty** (threshold moment - realizing I don't fit in the traditional workforce anymore)**These were my Sphere moments.** When death entered my flat world and showed me dimensions I couldn't perceive before.Now I'm back in Flatland. But I'm… changed.I can't play the game anymore. Can't pretend credentials matter. Can't believe in “realistic” thinking.**Because I've seen the vertical dimension.**And once you've been there - once you've been initiated by death, loss, shattering - **you can never fully believe in Flatland again.**-----## What you'll discover in this episode:**The architecture of Flatland** - How 2D thinking imprisons you without you realizing it**Death as the third dimension** - The vertical axis that breaks the flat plane of “normal life”**Your initiations** - Recognizing the moments when the Sphere appeared in YOUR life (and you might have missed it)**The RAS activation** - How this episode will permanently change what you perceive in your reality**The elder's burden** - What to do when you've been lifted out but dropped back into a world that thinks you're crazy-----## WARNING: This is not safe content.This episode is designed to make you **dangerously curious** and **a little uncomfortable.**Not reassured. Not inspired in the Instagram quote way.**Initiated.**By the end, you'll question:- Whether your job defines you (it doesn't - that's Flatland)- Whether your plans are guaranteed (they're not - that's 2D thinking)- Whether “being realistic” is wisdom (it's not - it's prison maintenance)- **Whether consensus reality is actually real (it's not - it's Flatland)**You'll start seeing patterns you can't unsee.Noticing dimensional breaks you used to ignore.Recognizing when death is trying to teach you something.**And there's no going back.**-----## This is Part 1 of a 6-episode series exploring:**Episode 1:** You Are Living in Flatland (And You Don't Even Know It) ← *You are here***Episode 2:** The Sphere Has Already Appeared. You Just Don't Remember Yet.**Episode 3:** Being Lifted Out - What You See From the Vertical Dimension**Episode 4:** Dropped Back In - When You Can't Fit in Flatland Anymore**Episode 5:** The Prison of Consensus Reality - Why They'll Call You Crazy**Episode 6:** Living Between Dimensions - The Work of the Initiated-----## Required reading (but read it AFTER this episode):***Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions*** by Edwin Abbott Abbott (1884)- Free online, any edition- ~100 pages- **Warning:** After this podcast series, you won't read it as fiction-----## The quote that changes everything:*“You are not crazy for seeing dimensions others can't perceive. You've just been initiated by death. And prisoners who see the bars become insurgents.”*-----**Your RAS is now activated.****You can't unknow this.****Welcome to the vertical dimension.****Welcome to the resistance.**-----*Initiated by death. Returned to Flatland. Speaking from the vertical dimension.**This is the Flatland series. This is the dimensional war.**And you just enlisted.*-----**[CONTENT WARNING: Discusses death, mortality, job loss, cancer, identity dissolution, dimensional initiation, reality destabilization, and the systematic dismantling of consensus thinking. Not recommended for those committed to remaining comfortably two-dimensional.]**-----## About this series:Following the 5-episode *Don Quixote* initiation series (where we explored tilting at windmills, vision vs delusion, defeat at fifty, and coming home), the *Flatland* series takes you deeper into dimensional knowing.**This is live philosophy.** Real-time transformation documented through literature.Not memoir. Not self-help.**Transmission from someone who's been lifted out and dropped back.**Consider this your field manual for the dimensional war.-----*Listen with headphones. Take notes.

Feeling exhausted despite going to bed on time? Noticing unexplained weight changes, anxiety, or that classic "midlife fog"? For many women in midlife, broken sleep often hides in plain sight, and the real culprit may be how we breathe at night. This episode sheds light on the overlooked connection between airway health, sleep quality, and the issues so many women face at this stage. Renowned airway-focused dentist Dr. Shereen Lim joins host Natalie Tysdal for a grounded, eye-opening conversation on sleep and breathing. Dr. Lim's perspective is especially relevant for women 40 and up — she explains why snoring, interrupted sleep, and fatigue aren't just annoyances, but signals of deeper, developmental factors. With clear stories and practical advice, Dr. Lim helps make sense of sleep studies, airway development, and what happens when the tongue, jaw, and nose don't support restorative sleep. If you've ever wondered why you wake up tired, or why CPAP might not be your only option, you'll find answers here. You'll learn: • Why sleep-breathing problems often go undiagnosed in women, and what can be done • How jaw and palate development in childhood impacts sleep, health, and even hormones years later • The signs like grinding, fatigue, and morning headaches,your body is using to flag poor sleep • The pros and cons of mouth taping, dental appliances, and how to find the best solution for your needs • How to talk with your dentist, sleep physician, or orthodontist to create a personalized path to better sleep • Why breathing through your nose (not your mouth) plays a key role in energy and vitality in midlife Too many women spend years blaming stress or hormones without realizing that restless sleep and airway health are often part of the picture. This conversation offers clarity, validation, and real options — so you can advocate for restorative sleep and daily energy that support your whole self. Episode Sponsor: Blue Sky CBD Better sleep is a recurring theme in this conversation — and it's something I've been working on personally. I've been using Blue Sky CBD Sleep Gels as part of my nighttime routine, and they've been a helpful addition. These gels combine CBD and CBN, a cannabinoid often used specifically to support sleep, to help the body settle into rest. There's no THC, nothing intoxicating, and the formula is lab-tested for quality. I've noticed my sleep feels more settled — and even my Oura sleep numbers have been trending in the right direction.

Some moments feel small when they happen.A conversation.A decision that doesn't make sense yet.A season that feels unfinished.In this episode, recorded during Corner Church's 20-year celebration, we reflect on the kind of faith that only becomes clear with time. Drawing from Scripture, shared stories, and the lived history of this community, we explore how God often works through ordinary people, repeated paths, and quiet faithfulness.From a prayer prayed years too early, to relationships that slowly converge, to everyday moments in Scripture that shape entire stories—this conversation invites us to look back with honesty and forward with trust.This episode isn't about perfection or arrival.It's about showing up.Paying attention.And learning to recognize Jesus at work—first in others, and eventually everywhere.

This episode is part of The Things We Carry, a solo series shaped by the themes that stay with me after the conversations on The Life Shift. Today, I am talking about identity and what happens when the life you have been holding together finally cracks open. Identity is not fixed. It shifts and bends. It breaks down and rebuilds. It grows through fear and through honesty. And most of us do not realize how much we have been holding until something inside us asks for change. In this reflection, I talk about the messy work of letting old selves fall away, the long, slow unwinding of perfection, and the courage it takes to face the parts of you that have been hiding for years. Growing into yourself is not clean or linear. Some days you feel brave. Some days you fall back into old patterns. The important part is noticing the opening. Noticing the small truth that something old is no longer working. If you are standing in that breaking open, I hope this episode meets you gently. You do not have to rush toward clarity. You do not need to fix everything at once. You can sit with the crack for a moment. You can let the rawness be real. Because inside that openness is the beginning of who you are becoming.

Would you like to develop more creative confidence? Have you ever embarked on, or considered, a sketching practice? In this episode of The Gentle Rebel Podcast, we explore the link between the two in conversation with artist, printmaker, and creative coach Sam Marshall. Sam is based here in the UK and has recently released a beautiful book called Sketch: A Project Guide To Drawing With Confidence. I was fortunate enough to receive a digital copy last year and honestly, wow. It inspires, equips, and gently mentors people to start a drawing practice and engage with their natural creativity. What I love most about the book is its emphasis on helping you find your own creative voice. This is supported by Sam's Sketch Squad, a small group of participants who work through the exercises together. Seeing the same prompts interpreted in wildly different ways has a surprisingly powerful effect. For me, the most helpful part was witnessing the sheer range of styles, approaches, and ways of noticing the world. https://youtu.be/yfiDlMKtMQA Creative Confidence and the Beauty of Difference A huge part of creative confidence is realising that differences in how we see, what we notice, and what we care about are not flaws. This is why art and creativity sit at the heart of being human. Creative expression is our collective humanity experiencing itself in all its weird and wonderful variety. I was reminded of this recently while talking about map-making as a way to understand our relationship with different areas of life. If you give the same prompt to 100 people, you do not get a single map done well. You get a hundred completely different maps. That is what I hope people take into and out of this conversation. Difference is beautiful. It is not about doing it right. What Sam offers through this book is a sketching practice that gives us tracks along which to see, feel, and experience the world in a more alive and interesting way than when we are stuck in ultra-productivity mode, trying to make everything efficient and easy. Why a Sketching Practice Builds Creative Confidence A drawing practice helps us slow down, observe, and engage our creative spirit through process rather than outcome. There is something gently rebellious about sketching in the digital age, where the default response is to pull out a phone and take a photo. There is a difference between capturing something quickly so we can hoard and move on, and drawing as a way of anchoring ourselves in the environment. Drawing asks us to stay. To notice. To let time pass while the world happens around us. Light shifts. Shadows move. People come and go. Smells, sounds, and sensations change. Rather than consuming the environment, we are engaging with it. Sam shares a lovely story about drawing in public and finding herself surrounded by Japanese school children. It creates a beautiful image of the quiet, magnetic energy that people who are deeply engaged with life often carry. Perhaps we are drawn to them because they are interesting. Or perhaps because they are moving at a pace many of us are craving. Practice Over Skill Focusing on practice rather than skill also reshapes what success means in art. Instead of achievement, accomplishment, or the finished piece, success becomes about rhythm, consistency, and an ongoing relationship with seeing and making. Letting go of outcome-oriented art is not about lowering standards. It is about shifting attention. It is not about producing pretty drawings. Rather, it is about sitting down with your sketchbook and using it as a tool for observing. Drawing anchors us in space and time, allowing us to witness change as it unfolds. The Sketching Exercises Sam Walks Us Through In the conversation, Sam takes us through the thinking behind the book’s exercises, each designed to build creative confidence through experience. In the Home Starting where you are. Noticing objects and spaces you have spent years with, perhaps without really seeing them. Outside the Home Venturing out to see the walls of your world from the outside. Noticing what is close by and reconnecting with physical space. It reveals details in neighbourhoods and communities that often go unseen. The Stories We Tell Ourselves About Drawing Sam explores some of the beliefs that hold people back, such as:“What if I am not good enough?”“I do not want to look silly or draw like a five-year-old.” Portraits Portraits were the most challenging exercise for many Sketch Squad members. They require vulnerability. You ask something of another person, and you share something personal in return. This is something we see in Tuula’s Photoyoga For Your Mind Experience. 25 Days of Drawing Simple prompts designed to build a habit and keep you drawing without overthinking it. Drawing in Public Another edge for many people. Being seen doing something personal and slightly unusual in a culture that loves to judge creative effort. Drawing on Holiday Experiencing places through the slowness of drawing adds depth to memory. Sam shares a sketchbook from her recent trip to Japan, which holds far more meaning for her than a photo album ever could. A helpful reminder for any habit, too. Start on the first day away. Intentions turn into behaviours quickly, for better or worse. Drawing From Paintings A way of engaging critically with art as part of the human story, not just as a product. It teaches us about history, context, and what we might want to bring into our own practice. Experimental Drawing Combining senses. Drawing from music, film, collage, and even dreams. The Personal Project Turning the practice into a chosen project that marks a pause between chapters. Sam explains why she calls this a personal project rather than a final assignment. How Creative Confidence Actually Grows Creative confidence does not arrive before we start. It emerges along the way. Through consistency, we become confident in what we notice and why we care. For experimental types, confidence is not something we can fake into existence. But we can trust that playful, curious engagement with something like a sketching practice develops capacities we do not yet have language for. I hope you enjoy the conversation. Thank you again to Sam for giving her time so generously and for walking us through the thinking behind, beneath, and within the book. I can’t recommend it highly enough. Connect with Sam through her website and on her Instagram.

Check out Part 2 as we offer some tips and solutions to changing thought patterns. Step into these new behaviors and step out of the cycle! Below is the STOPP method we have shared in a past pod. It's worth resharing and we discuss this again in this session. To support our work:https://www.patreon.com/u33636... To purchase our book: Fueling on Purposehttps://a.co/d/idGo0pp STOPP !    Just pause for a moment TAKE A BREATH    Notice your breathing as you breath in and out - use 7/11 breathing technique OBSERVE - What thoughts are going through your mind right now? - Where is your focus of attention? - What are you reacting to? - What sensations do you notice in your body? PULL BACK - PUT IN SOME PERSPECTIVE - What's the bigger picture? - Take the helicopter view. - What is another way of looking at this situation? - What advice would I give a friend? - What would a trusted friend say to me right now? - Is this thought a fact or opinion? - What is a more reasonable explanation? - How important is this? How important will it be in 6 months time? - It will pass. PRACTICE WHAT WORKS - PROCEED - What is the best thing to do right now? - Best for me, for others, for the situation? - What can I do that fits with my values? - Do what will be effective and appropriate. HOW TO USE STOPP - Practice the first two steps often for a few days - many times every day at any time. - Read through the steps often. - Carry written reminders with you (use the printable resources below). - Practice STOPP by running through all the steps several times a day, every day...when you don't need it. - Start to use it for little upsets. - Gradually, you will find that you can use it for more distressing situations. Like any new habit or skill, it will become automatic over time. THE STEPS EXPLAINED STOP! Say it to yourself, in your head, as soon as you notice your mind and/or your body is reacting to a trigger. Stop! helps to put in the space between the stimulus (the trigger, whatever we are reacting to) and our response. The earlier you use STOPP, the easier and more effective it will be. TAKE A BREATH Breathing a little deeper and slower will calm down and reduce the physical reaction of emotion/adrenaline. Focusing on our breathing means we are not so focused on the thoughts and feelings of the distress, so that our minds can start to clear and we can think more logically and rationally. OBSERVE We can notice the thoughts going through our mind, we can notice what we feel in our body, and we can notice the urge to react in an impulsive way. We can notice the vicious cycle of anxiety, sadness or anger. Noticing helps us to defuse from those thoughts and feelings and therefore reduce their power and control. PULL BACK / PUT IN SOME PERSPECTIVE The thought challenging of CBT. Thinking differently. When we step back emotionally from a situation, and start to see the bigger picture, it reduces those distressing beliefs. We can do this by asking ourselves questions. PRACTICE WHAT WORKS / PROCEED This is the behavioral change of CBT. Doing things differently. Rather than reacting impulsively with unhelpful consequences, we can CHOOSE our more helpful and positive response.

Most marriage regrets don't show up as explosive fights. They show up quietly. Feeling more like roommates than partners. Wondering when sex started feeling complicated… or nonexistent. Noticing resentment creeping in and asking yourself… “Is this just how marriage is supposed to feel?” In today's episode, we're getting into the marriage regrets and mistakes people hold close to their chests… but rarely say out loud. We're sharing real stories pulled from Instagram, Reddit, and our own marriage, along with practical ways to prevent these regrets from becoming permanent patterns. Whether you're married, partnered, or thinking about your future relationship, this conversation is for you.
