    Coming up on this episode of Flirtations, we're talking on of the most universal experiences we all share — loneliness. Joining us is Dr. James Ellis, a psychologist known online as @lonelinessdoctor, whose work explores how loneliness shapes our lives — and what it takes to find connection again. We talk about why meeting people can feel so hard in today, the visible and invisible barriers that keep us from reaching out, and how micro connections - those tiny, everyday exchanges - can actually rewire our sense of belonging. We also explore how external validation ties into our self-worth, and how the search for connection can sometimes become a search for ourselves — because who we are often reveals itself through what we do, how we show up, and how we let others see us. How we connect with our world. This episode is about more than just loneliness — it's about rediscovering the art of connection, one moment, one breath, one flirt at a time. Let's do this Flirties, and meet Dr. Ellis!

His work explores loneliness as a social health crisis - highlighting the ways in which modern life erodes connection and identifying what it takes to restore it. Through his writing, clinical practice, and public education, he helps redefine how we understand and heal from disconnection in the modern world. You can connect with Dr. Ellis on Instagram! About your host:  Benjamin is a flirt and dating coach sharing his love of flirting and BFE - big flirt energy - with the world! A lifelong introvert and socially anxious member of society, Benjamin now helps singles and daters alike flirt with more confidence, clarity, and fun! As the flirt is all about connection, Benjamin helps the flirt community (the Flirties!) date from a place that allows the value of connection in all forms - platonic, romantic, and with the self - to take center stage. Ultimately, this practice of connection helps flirters and daters alike create stronger relationships, transcend limiting beliefs, and develop an unwavering love for the self. His work has been featured in Fortune, NBC News, The Huffington Post, Men's Health, and Yoga Journal.

    In this fourth installment of The Consistency Code Diaries, we explore the seemingly contradictory principles that make The Consistency Code uniquely effective for midlife women – and why embracing these paradoxes is the key to breakthrough transformation. In this episode, you'll discover: How structure creates freedom: Why having a clear framework actually gives you more flexibility and choice, not less Why doing less yields better results: The counterintuitive truth about simplification and sustainable progress in midlife How planned “inconsistency” strengthens overall consistency: Why building in strategic breaks and flexibility makes your long-term consistency more resilient The power of rigid flexibility: How being firm on your values while flexible on your methods creates unshakeable consistency If you've ever felt frustrated by traditional consistency advice that demands perfection or feels too rigid for real life, this episode will revolutionize how you think about sustainable change. These paradoxes weren't fully explored in the book itself, making this episode essential listening for anyone ready to understand the deeper philosophy behind The Consistency Code. Perfect for midlife women who are ready to stop fighting against themselves and start working with their unique rhythms and needs.

    New Yorker staff writer Jelani Cobb joins co-hosts Whitney Terrell and V.V. Ganeshananthan to discuss his new essay collection, Three or More is a Riot: Notes on How We Got Here: 2012-2025. Cobb recalls how he began the project by trying to understand how George Zimmerman's killing of unarmed black teenager Trayvon Martin in 2012 set the tone for the era to come. Cobb considers how history's exceptions skew narratives, so that writers miss the bigger picture. He reflects on how discourse about race shifted between the Obama, Trump, and Biden administrations and considers the juxtaposition of Martin's murder with Obama's presidency. Cobb also speaks on the significance of transparency in journalism, calling for reporters to show their work to reinforce public trust. He explains his preference for a lowercase “b” in “black” as a racial term, given that the word is not a proper noun, does not designate a nationality, and that capitalization may perpetuate inaccurate racial ideologies. Cobb reads from Three or More Is a Riot. To hear the full episode, subscribe through iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher, Spotify, or your favorite podcast app (include the forward slashes when searching).

    The "wrong" way you've been wanting to practice Reiki might actually be the revolutionary approach the healing world desperately needs. This episode dismantles the mainstream narrative that perfect protocols equal powerful healing, exposing how rigid structures often block the very Spiritual wisdom they're meant to channel.In this transformative episode, you'll discover:• Why your internal battle between training & a new way forwards isn't a flaw – it's your Spiritual sovereignty emerging through protocol conditioning, signaling you're ready for the next evolution of your practice• The Protocol Paradox explained – how the systems designed to connect us to healing energy become the exact barriers blocking its most profound expression (and why clinging to them out of fear creates energetic resistance)• The critical difference between being a protocol technician vs. a sovereign vessel – and why one client said after 12 years of receiving Reiki, working with a Spirit-led practitioner was the first time they experienced spiritual revelation FOR themselves, not TO them• How to honor tradition while pioneering your unique expression – understanding that Usui and other masters created starting points, not ending points, and would, I imagine, celebrate your evolution beyond their frameworks• A practical experiment for exploring sovereign healing – specific steps to release protocol dependency and document what emerges when you trust your direct spiritual connection over memorized methodsThis episode is essential listening for Reiki practitioners feeling restricted by traditional methods, those whose hands want to move "wrong," and anyone ready to transform from mechanical energy transfers into sacred collaborations with divine intelligence.Spirit-led Reiki Pathway: https://www.reikiredefined.com/spirit-led-reiki-pathway/Free on demand workshop: https://www.reikiredefined.com/lifting-the-veil-on-reiki/Free community: https://www.reikiredefined.com/free-community/You'll find me most @reikiredefined TT and IG

    For all the talk about digital transformation, finding a doctor is still one of healthcare's most frustrating experiences.In this episode, hosts Chris Boyer and Reed Smith explore why access and accuracy remain elusive even as health systems roll out new self-service tools, AI agents, and “digital front door” platforms. The paradox is clear: smarter technology has not simplified the search for care—it has layered complexity on top of broken data. They discuss: The Paradox of Progress – How healthcare has over-invested in interfaces and under-invested in data accuracy, creating sleek tools built on unreliable information. The Consumer Has Changed, But Data Hasn't – Why patients expect instant, personalized access yet still face outdated directories, long wait times, and opaque scheduling systems. Rebuilding the Foundation – How clean provider data, interoperability, and governance must come before AI orchestration or agentic automation can truly work. In the guest interview, Morgan Beschle, VP of Product at Kyruus Health, shares findings from a new 2025 study that exposes persistent provider data issues and highlights how consumers are redefining what “finding care” really means in the age of AI.

    We hear the word “surrender” all the time in spirituality, but what does it actually mean?   For most of my life, surrender didn't make sense. My mom fled war in Iran, my dad too, and everything I learned growing up was about fighting for freedom, not giving in. So when people said “just surrender,” I thought it meant giving up.   It wasn't until my marriage ended that I learned what real surrender was. I didn't have a choice anymore. I had to trust that Spirit was guiding me somewhere greater, even if I couldn't see where. That moment opened the door to a year of complete flow. I left everything behind, traveled the world with one suitcase, and discovered new archetypes within myself that I never knew existed.   But eventually, I realized there's a paradox in all of this. If we only surrender, we can lose direction. If we only control, we block the magic.

    Self-Sabotage in Divorce: Understanding Hidden PatternsIn this compelling episode of How to Split a Toaster, Seth Nelson and Pete Wright explore the psychology of self-sabotage during divorce with guest expert Dr. Philip Agrios. The conversation delves into how unconscious patterns can derail both relationships and divorce proceedings.Understanding Self-SabotageDr. Agrios identifies three fundamental reasons for self-sabotage: past success followed by loss, avoiding necessary actions, and fear that success brings more pain. These patterns particularly impact divorce proceedings where emotional stakes are high and rational decision-making is crucial.Legal Impact and Court BehaviorSeth Nelson emphasizes how self-sabotage manifests in legal settings, particularly during depositions and court appearances. Clients often undermine their cases by over-talking, treating minor issues as emergencies, or failing to provide required documentation timely—all of which increase legal costs and complexity.Key Insights:Self-sabotage often serves as unconscious protection from perceived greater painCourt time constraints require focusing on truly significant issuesUnderstanding behavioral patterns helps navigate divorce more effectivelyBreaking Free from Self-Sabotaging PatternsThe discussion outlines practical strategies for recognizing and addressing self-sabotage, including:Identifying protective behaviors versus growth behaviorsWorking with attorneys efficiently to manage costsUnderstanding personal triggers and responsesThe episode provides valuable insights for anyone navigating divorce while dealing with self-sabotaging tendencies.

    Praise — A Means to Victory Text: Hebrews 13:10–15 ; 2 Chronicles 20 ; Acts 16 Theme: Praise and thanksgiving are not reactions — they are weapons of victory and doors into God's presence. Living in the Last Days The world hungers for comfort, not truth — but the church must stand firm in the Word. Amos 8:11 – “A famine… of hearing the Word of the Lord.” God doesn't need us, but we desperately need Him. Application: Stay rooted in Scripture amid cultural drift. Thanksgiving in Prayer – Philippians 4:6 “Let your requests be made known unto God — with thanksgiving.” Gratitude reminds God that we know He is the source. Posture check: Do we ask in fear or faith? Thanksgiving opens the door for God to move. “We're not stroking God's ego — we're acknowledging His hand in everything.” III. Praise: Our Continual Sacrifice – Hebrews 13:15 “Let us continually offer the sacrifice of praise.” Praise brings God into our moment; complaining pushes Him out. Daily praise > Sunday praise — Sunday should be overflow, not catch-up. Prophetic call: Start praising every day — and watch your life change. The Tabernacle of David Restored – Acts 15:16 & Psalm 22:3 God promised to rebuild David's tabernacle — the house of praise. David danced before the Lord, unashamed. Psalm 22:3: “God is enthroned in the praises of His people.” “When we praise, God brings His throne into our situation.” His throne means healing, provision, deliverance, and power. Application: Gentiles have been grafted in — we are the new worshiping people of God. Jehoshaphat's Victory – 2 Chronicles 20 Surrounded by enemies, Judah sought the Lord. God's word: “The battle is not yours, but God's.” Worshippers went before warriors — and praise won the battle. “They didn't need swords — they needed God's throne in their moment.” Praise confuses the enemy and positions believers for overflow. The Paradox of Praise Praise in pain defies logic but demonstrates faith. David worshiped after loss; Noah endured through faith. Real faith acts — it endures and praises through the storm. Application: When the world says “complain,” heaven says “praise.” VII. Paul and Silas – Praise in the Prison (Acts 16:16–34) Beaten and chained, they prayed and sang hymns at midnight. Their praise reached heaven — and God shook the prison. “When their praise caught God's ear, He said, ‘Bring My throne down where the sewage is.'” Chains broke, doors opened, and salvation came. Lesson: Praise breaks bondage and draws others to Christ. VIII. Call to Worship and Renewal Praise brings heaven into every situation. Angels move on behalf of those who fear and thank God. Stop fretting — start praising. “Mix thanksgiving with your requests. Invite His throne into your situation — that's how victory comes.” Key Takeaway: Praise is not a reaction to victory — it's the means to it. When you praise, God steps in with His throne, and everything changes

    This episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosted by Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton, unpacks a surprising truth: praise, awards, and public recognition don't always feel good to first responders (Amazon Affiliate). While many people assume medals and compliments bring pride, for those in uniform they can sometimes trigger discomfort, guilt, or even resentment. We explore the psychology behind this paradox—and how to accept recognition in a healthy way without feeling like you're betraying your values. 1. Why Praise Can Feel Uncomfortable First responders often see their actions as “just doing the job,” not something special. Public praise can feel undeserved when you know how much was lost or how many others were involved. 2. The Guilt-Recognition Conflict Recognition sometimes resurfaces memories of traumatic calls or fallen colleagues. Officers may feel like accepting praise dishonors those who didn't survive. 3. The Culture of Humility and Stoicism First responder culture often discourages showing pride or seeking attention. Praise can clash with the deeply ingrained mindset of selfless service. 4. How This Affects Mental Health Dismissing or deflecting praise can reinforce feelings of isolation and low self-worth. Refusing to internalize recognition contributes to burnout and emotional exhaustion. 5. Healthier Ways to Receive Praise Acknowledge the emotion without minimizing it (“It was hard, and I did my best”). Redirect praise to the whole team without rejecting it entirely. Talk about the discomfort—normalize it among peers to reduce shame. Use praise as a reminder of impact, not perfection. Keep perspective: accepting recognition doesn't mean seeking it.

    For many decision scientists, their starting point—drawn from economics—is a quantitative formula called Rational Choice Theory, allowing people to calculate and choose the best options. The problem is that this framework assumes an overly simplistic picture of the world, in which different types of values can be quantified and compared, leading to the “most rational” choice. Behavioral economics acknowledges that irrationality is common but still accepts the underlying belief from economics of what a rational decision should look like.   Drawing from economics, psychology, and philosophy—and both inspired by and challenging Daniel Kahneman's Thinking, Fast and Slow—Barry Schwartz shows how the focus on rationality, narrowly understood, fails to fully describe how we think about our decisions, much less help us make better ones. Barry Schwartz is professor emeritus of psychology at Swarthmore College and visiting professor at Haas School of Business, University of California, Berkeley. His research and writing focus on the intersection of psychology and economics, particularly with regard to decision-making, intrinsic and extrinsic motivation, and the nature of human values. His books include The Paradox of Choice, Why We Work, and (as coauthor) Practical Wisdom. His new book, co-authored with the philosopher Richard Schuldenfrei, is Choose Wisely: Rationality, Ethics, and the Art of Decision-Making.

    In this episode of The Rainmaking Podcast, Scott Love welcomes Jordana Confino, founder of JC Coaching and Consulting and author of the blog Chronicles of a Recovering Type A+ Perfectionist, to explore “The Perfectionist Paradox.” Jordana explains that perfectionism is not about high standards—it's a fear- and shame-based mindset driven by self-doubt and the need to prove worth. She reveals how this approach undermines both mental health and performance, blocking creativity, risk-taking, and authentic business development. Drawing on neuroscience and positive psychology, she describes how to replace the inner critic's harsh voice with self-compassion, rewiring the brain through neuroplasticity to enhance confidence and performance. Jordana shares practical strategies to help high-achieving professionals and lawyers break free from destructive perfectionism. These include “drawing your critic” to externalize self-judgment, practicing compassionate self-talk, and identifying core values to shift from fear-based motivation to values-driven achievement. By replacing self-criticism with self-compassion and clarity, professionals can perform at a higher level, strengthen resilience, and enjoy greater fulfillment in their careers and lives.

    Discovering True Peace and Lasting Contentment Welcome to our exciting new episode of "Ecclesiastes S6E5"! Today, we're diving into the remarkable wisdom of the Teacher, who shares incredible insights into wealth and its true impact on our lives. This sermon invites us to challenge the common belief that more resources bring more peace and security, prompting us to explore where real contentment truly lies. The Illusion of Wealth The Teacher sheds light on a vital reality: as we acquire more, we often find ourselves facing increased demands on our resources. This is perfectly illustrated by two key groups that vie for our hard-earned assets: - Bill Collectors: As our income rises, so does our spending, which inevitably leads to higher bills. This cycle of earning and outlay often becomes a source of stress, as we find our good fortune disappearing into the hands of creditors, leaving us feeling anything but peaceful. - Consumers: These individuals might expect a share of our wealth based solely on their connection to us. As we accumulate resources, we often attract more people looking to partake in our success. Through the Teacher's insightful reflections, we learn that what we often see as wealth can, paradoxically, lead to anxiety and dissatisfaction instead of the peace we seek. The Paradox of Peace In Ecclesiastes 5:12, we encounter a thought-provoking paradox: "The sleep of the laborer is sweet, whether they eat little or much, but as for the rich, their abundance permits them no sleep." This powerful verse beautifully reminds us that genuine peace isn't found in lavish abundance; rather, it's discovered in simplicity and a deep reliance on God. Ironically, the more we think we're securing our future through resources, the more we may find ourselves spiraling into worry—especially without God at the center of it all. The Teacher teaches us that wealth can sometimes morph from a blessing into a source of stress when we allow ourselves to be consumed by it. A Modern Reflection Reflecting on our contemporary landscape, this sermon highlights a recent Wall Street Journal article by Bret Stephens, suggesting that America's struggles with mental health may stem from our comfort and wealth. Having the luxury of time to play detective in our lives can lead us to feelings of dissatisfaction. Meanwhile, those facing greater challenges often find surprising pockets of peace amidst chaos and hardship. The Pursuit of Meaning There's a striking parallel between the Teacher's insights and Jesus' teachings, as we're reminded that "it doesn't profit a man anything to gain the whole world if, in the process, he loses his soul." This profound truth gently nudges us to rethink the pursuit of wealth as our primary source of meaning and fulfillment. Conclusion In closing, this inspiring sermon encourages us to seek genuine contentment not through the accumulation of material wealth, but through cultivating a heartfelt relationship with God. As we navigate the complexities of life together, let's open our hearts to find peace and satisfaction in the divine, allowing His presence to steer us toward authentic contentment. May God bless you abundantly and keep you safe! May His face shine upon you and fill your heart with the peace that comes from being content with what you have. Remember Ecclesiastes 5:12 as it reminds us that true peace lies in simplicity and unwavering trust in God's provision. Let's wholeheartedly embrace this encouraging truth and lead our lives with purpose and joy!

    Today I'm sharing something that's been coming up repeatedly in my work - a crucial insight about how we often misunderstand alignment in human design, and how this misunderstanding can actually keep us stuck.The Core Paradox:We think we need to avoid our "not-self" themes (frustration, anger, bitterness, disappointment) and focus only on our "signature" themes (satisfaction, peace, success, surprise). But this approach completely misses where the real transformation happens.The Four/Five "Not-Self" Themes:Generator/Manifesting Generator: FrustrationManifester: AngerProjector: BitternessReflector: DisappointmentHere's what most people miss: Your not-self theme is where all the magic is. It's not something to avoid or bypass - it's your access point to deeper alignment.Why This Matters:When you resist your not-self themes, you actually create more of what you're trying to avoid. This is the classic "what you resist persists" principle. If you're trying to force yourself into feeling satisfied while pushing away frustration, you're working against yourself.The real transformation happens when you can lovingly accept and work WITH the parts of you experiencing these not-self themes. This is the actual deconditioning work.All Themes Apply to All of Us:Even though you have a specific type in your chart, you'll likely experience all of these themes at different times. I'm a generator, but I resonate with all the signature and not-self themes across all types. We're a blend of all the archetypes - it's never black and white.The Real Work:Get curious about your not-self themes instead of judging themExpress these energies healthily (journaling, EFT tapping, movement, screaming into a pillow)Recognize that frustration, anger, bitterness, and disappointment all stem from the same root fears - not belonging, rejection, not being lovedCelebrate when these themes come up because they're showing you where transformation wants to happenA Personal Example:I recently went through intense frustration in my business - wanting to simplify, feeling like I didn't want to continue doing things the same way. Instead of pushing it away, I stayed with it. Now I've found my satisfaction again, with real clarity about what needs to change.The Invitation:Human design isn't here to label or limit you. It's an awareness tool showing you where you're not aligned SO YOU CAN work with those parts and become more aligned. The signature themes (satisfaction, peace, etc.) come naturally when you stop resisting the not-self themes.Information alone doesn't create transformation - it's the repeated practice of working with these aspects of yourself that leads to embodiment and real change.Intuitive Human Design Certification: https://analenafuchs.com/intuitive-human-design-certificationThe Intuitive Human Design Teacher Training & Certification starts October 22, 2025 (and the last day to enroll is November 5, 11am EST). This is where we do the actual work of applying these principles, going beyond information into real transformation - for yourself and you will feel confident doing insanely transformational chart reading and working with clients.This episode is essential listening for anyone working with human design who feels stuck trying to "be more aligned" or who's been beating themselves up for experiencing their not-self themes.#humandesign #manifestinggenerator #humandesigngenerator #humandesignprojector #humandesignreflector #humandesignmanifestor

    When public systems like health care, mental health services, and schools begin to disappear, people lose more than access—they can lose hope, and sometimes even their lives. Today, Camerino Salazar shares what he has learned from decades of research into why more Texans are dying from things like suicide, drug overdoses, and alcohol. What does it really mean when entire communities get left behind? Why are some policies leading to higher death rates in certain Texas populations? How does this affect people in rural areas, especially when hospitals close? Key Questions Answered What is killing Texans and what are the leading causes discussed? How do policy decisions affect health outcomes in Texas? What is the role of an evaluator in organizations like The Rose? Who are the populations most affected by rising deaths of despair in Texas? How does legislation regarding healthcare and hospitals impact rural communities? Why would certain communities support policies that might ultimately harm their own health interests? How is life expectancy in Texas trending compared to other states? What myths exist about Texas’ uninsured and Medicaid?

    Anyone with a passing familiarity with Buddhism will know that “delusion” is rarely, if ever, mentioned in a positive way. In fact, the Buddha included delusion (aka: confusion about the way things really are) on his list of “the three poisons.” The whole point of meditation, per the Buddha, is to uproot delusion -- along with greed and hatred. Only then can you be enlightened. My guest today is here to valiantly make the case that delusion -- or self-deception -- has an upside. Many upsides, in fact. While he concedes that self-deception can, of course, be massively harmful, he argues that it also plays a vital role in our success and wellbeing, and that it holds together friendships, marriages, and nations. Understanding this, he says, can make you happier, more effective, and -- crucially -- more empathetic with people with whom you disagree. Shankar Vedantam is the host of the popular podcast and radio show Hidden Brain. His latest book is called Useful Delusions: The Power and Paradox of the Self-Deceiving Brain. In this episode we talk about: the many ways our brains filter and alter our perception of reality why we evolved for a robust capacity to lie to ourselves and how his research on delusions has colored his view of the chaos and confusion of our modern world.    Join Dan's online community here Follow Dan on social: Instagram, TikTok Subscribe to our YouTube Channel   To advertise on the show, contact sales@advertisecast.com or visit https://advertising.libsyn.com/10HappierwithDanHarris   SPONSORS:  Bumble: Thinking about dating again?

    In the early 2000s, a man named John Titor began posting on an internet forum claiming to be a time traveler from the year 2036. Not only did he offer photos and schematics of the time machine he used, but he also gave numerous predictions about the future—some of which came true, while others didn't. Which is why today, many are left wondering—was John Titor a masterful hoaxster, or did his journey back in time set us on a different course entirely? For a full list of sources, please visit: sosupernaturalpodcast.com/dark-web-john-titorSo Supernatural is an Audiochuck and Crime House production.
