I can't get Plato's Paradox out of my head: Democracy inevitably leads to tyranny. The rich always want to get richer and the poor will follow demagogues who promise to overthrow the rich. I first learned of Plato's pessimistic prophesy In ASTRA TAYLOR'S documentary WHAT IS DEMOCRACY? and her companion book, Democracy May Not Exist, But We'll Miss It When It's Gone. In our 2020 conversation, we explore democracy's early roots as well as its current embattled state.

In a world filled with paradoxes, two knowable truths that seem to be in contradiction to one another, how can Christians reconcile those places of tension? We are joined by author Jen Pollock Michael to talk about her book Surprised by Paradox and how wrestling with life's paradoxes can enable us to love others better as well as increase our trust and dependence on God.   Buy the book.   Read more about Jen and subscribe to her newsletter.     — Become a Patron: https://patron.podbean.com/culturematters   Follow us on social: instagram.com/culture_matters_pod twitter.com/culturemattersp culturematterspodcast.podbean.com

This may be news to you… but embracing paradoxes is normal. Actually, even more than that, it's the key to a happier life! Hear about some paradox examples and learn why having this approach will improve the quality of your life. Key Points In Episode: Today's episode of Inner Archeology revolves around embodying and holding space for paradox. You'll hear Emily and Sarah share some paradox examples. Do you think in black and white terms? Emily believes that, by doing that, we sometimes create pain for ourselves because we limit our ability to experience a lot of joy and pleasure in life. Oh, and Sarah sees this as one of the key pieces to happiness. #Fact: embracing paradoxes can help when our mind makes limiting claims. It's possible to be sad while also experiencing happiness in other areas of your life – even though our brain wouldn't like for us to feel it, and may make us feel guilty afterward… Sarah thinks that it's very hard to have a lot of judgment toward other people and genuinely be happy. Do you agree? Another area some people struggle with is when they would like to experience happiness but tread carefully because they don't want others, who are having it bad, to feel sad or offended by it. An example of this is a woman who's happy with breastfeeding her baby but limits her joy because breastfeeding can be an issue for so many other women. It's not your fault and you shouldn't stop feeling happy! Want to know what really pissed Sarah off during the pandemic? The inability of both sides – people pro-vaccines and those against them – to listen to the other side and realize that there were truths on both sides. The saddest part is that, at the end of the day, both sides were focusing on the same thing: avoiding doing something harmful. This is a #BigTruth Sarah shared: “If you're interested in making real change, the answer isn't to be angry and yell and people who think differently… It's about being able to hear different perspectives and have conversations.” This may be tough for you to hear but when you realize that to be human is to be a walking paradox, you're going to feel lighter and happier in the long run. When you live using a binary way of thinking, where everything that there's in this world is either what you deem to be good, truthful and valuable or the opposite, you live in a pinhole and constantly feel those things as sort of threatening. On the other hand, when you realize that the world is rich and full of uniqueness, nuances and complexities – including those you don't fully understand or would follow yourself – and you understand that different things can coexist, you get to live a more liberating, richer, and deeper life. You can be successful while experiencing imposter syndrome or you can be happy while also experiencing some confusion, uncertainty, or anxiety. We're complex beings and that's a beautiful thing – repeat this as a mantra!   Links Mentioned in Today's Episode: Inner Archeology Email Sarah Turner on Instagram Emily Pennystone on Instagram @Inner.Archeology on Instagram InnerArcheology.com InnerArcheology.tv (video version) patreon.com/InnerArcheology Inner Archeology on YouTube

Today's guest is Cam Smith (@camfromcb). Cam is a multi-sport monster, especially in ski mountaineering and trail running. A quick list of his accomplishments. He's an 11 time US Skimo national champion, and 5 time north American ski mo champion. Cam holds the course record for the three largest skimo races in the US, the Power of Four, the Grand Traverse, and the Gothic Mountain Tour. He's the first American man to finish top-10 in a skimo world cup race, with his 3rd place finish in Andorra earlier in 2022. He's won a long list of trail running races as well, and has qualified for the Mountain and Trail Running World Championships in Thailand this year. In the first part of a double episode, he shared his key mental skill (reframing), his own personal antidote to burnout, and we got to spend a lot of time exploring the balance between performance paradoxes like:The Rigidity of Planning — The Adaptability of AcceptanceOutcome — ProcessThis episode was packed with a ton of detail when it comes to the nuts and bolts of mental performance, and it was a special treat to catch up with Cam!

Jesus does not contrast the “wise” and the “stupid.” He contrasts the godless and the God-fearing. The God-fearing are like “infants,” in that they are dependent on a higher mind. The wise and pompous of this world do not reckon with God, because they think themselves as self-sufficient and independent, relying on their sin-tainted understanding.Thank you for listening to this episode of Declaring His Glory Among the Nations: Daily Scripture Meditations from Pastors Around the World. This show is from The Master's Academy International. If you like this podcast, please subscribe, and leave a review on your favorite podcast app. The Master's Academy International is committed to fulfilling the Great Commission by training indigenous church leaders worldwide. For more information and to learn how to get involved, visit www.tmai.org. ► CONNECT WITH US: Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/tmai.orgInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/tmai_orgTwitter - https://twitter.com/tmai_org► SEE OUR RESOURCES: Field Reports - https://www.tmai.org/updateMinistry Updates - https://www.tmai.org/subscribeOnline Giving - https://www.tmai.org/donateDevotional Book - https://www.tmai.org/devotionalFree Book - https://www.tmai.org/freebook► CONTACT US: Address - 13248 Roscoe Blvd, Sun Valley, CA 91352Phone - (818) 909-5570Email - info@tmai.org

Do you ever feel dissatisfied with the way things are in your world? Are you constantly striving for more while the people around you seem content with what they already have? Do you ever feel guilty that you're just not doing enough? Are you hyper-critical of yourself and believe that your results could always be improved? Well, what if I told you that instead of a personality flaw, those qualities represent the strength of your genes? You are uniquely wired to not only survive, but thrive, in an environment that never made it easy for you to succeed. Chances are, you are a DRIVEN. My guest today is Meghan Terwilliger: a former collegiate athlete, professional volleyball player, a mother of three and a coach for Driven. As an invaluable member of the Driven tribe, Meghan works with Dr. Doug Brackmann to provide content, guidance and retreats for "Driven" individuals. As a "Driven" woman myself, I am intensely curious about how the action-oriented qualities of ambition and unrelenting drive for success align with the divine feminine archetype. How can we fully embrace our need for freedom, independence and results without diminishing the nourishing Feminine within? Meghan is a brilliant resource for these far-reaching questions, and this episode is charged with her wise proverbs and highly evolved presence.

When coaching, when to make it easy? When to let it be hard? How can these two seemingly diametrically opposed objectives work together? Come join the conversation with Chris and Austin as they brainstorm to try to figure out the "The Coaching Paradox." First, they share about the benefits of making a great environment where it is easy to do good things (e.g., systems thinking, classical culture shaping, etc.). Second, they talk about the pros of developing the ability to do good things even if they are hard (e.g., grit, classical courage and diligence). Then, they hypothesize on how to solve the paradox and bring the two good goals together as a coach. Video and Show Notes: https://youtu.be/GexsVYQ4tYo

There's evidence that economically better-off voters tilt Republican. But there is a paradox. While richer voters tilt Republican, richer states tend to vote Democrat. To discuss this apparent paradox, as well as issues of poll accuracy, and how much the state of the economy has mattered in recent mid-term elections, EconoFact Chats welcomes Andrew Gelman of Columbia University. Andrew is a professor of statistics and political science at Columbia. His work has focused on a range of topics, including why it is rational to vote, and why campaign polls are so variable, when elections are often predictable.

Because despite all of the sales technologies, improved sales methodologies, advanced sales training – there still seems to be a disconnect between how modern sellers sell and how modern buyers buy. But, how do sales leaders effectively close this gap is quickly becoming a hot button topic in the sales community. And, addressing what this all means, why there is a widening gap, and how to efficiently turn the sales tide are exactly the areas of expertise of this episode's guest, Dr. Howard Dover. Dr. Howard Dover is the Founder and Director of the Center for Professional Sales at the University of Texas at Dallas, renowned speaker, and the Amazon best-selling author of The Sales Innovation Paradox: Harnessing Modern Methods for Optimal Sales Performance. Over the past decade, he has trained some of the top entry-level sales producers and regularly shares his findings and modern methods via various conferences and publications. Before working in academia, Dr. Dover founded several companies, including a sales contracting company that he operated for a decade. During his start-up years and government work, he developed the ability to harness technology to increase both the efficiency of business processes and the effectiveness of sales efforts. Download this episode of the Modern Selling Podcast to hear Dr. Dover's impactful insights and recommendations to sales leaders to close the gap. What is the sales innovation paradox? I wanted to kick off our discussion with a term that many aren't familiar with. Over the past three years, no one will argue that we have seen a radical shift in how selling is done. With the pandemic, pushing modern sellers to embrace more virtual selling options, the number of tools at sales professional's disposal has dramatically increased. Yet, sales haven't followed the same trend. Which is why I always say, “a fool with a tool is still a fool.” I wanted to get Dr. Dover's take and better understand what this sales paradox is, how it started, and the implications it could have on the buying/selling process. His unique perspective is quite telling, “How is it possible that we live in a day where we have technology that was designed to make us better at sales, and yet somehow we find ourselves in a place where we are decidedly worse at selling. That is the Sales Paradox. When we look at the research, buyers overwhelmingly are saying they want a sales rep free experience. But, we keep pushing for more and more sales reps to sell.” I've seen the same trend in the industry over the past few years. Like The Sales Paradox asserts, the number of SDRs has increased by 1,300%, but their productivity and success rates are dismal at best. In other words, customers have gotten smarter about buying faster than sellers have gotten smarter at selling. And, this isn't unique for a particular industry. This is a growing trend that is on pace to continue to worsen, if left unaddressed. Listen to the full conversation to hear what sales leaders could be doing to make matters worse and what they should be doing instead to drive more sales conversations. How can sales reps book more sales calls? If there is a sales paradox at play that isn't leading to more sales, then how can sales reps truly book more calls with prospects? Here at Vengreso, we have a very specific method that we follow to personalize all of our outreach messages to increase the chances of building an authentic relationship with potential customers. Many sales reps take the ‘spray and pray' approach and bombard prospects with lots of generic messages that don't speak to their direct pain points or needs. I wanted to hear Dr. Dover's insights as they relate to what he believes is the “secret sauce” to move the sales needle. What he shares was very interesting, “We're giving the customer a phenomenal opportunity to go find defensive mechanisms to run and hide because the sales messaging they're receiving is extremely irrelevant to what they need. What sales reps need to be doing is building relevance into their messages. That's why doing your research before you reach out is so key. Then you'll know more about your prospect and can add that into your outreach to increase your chances to get a response back.” Relevance, like Dr. Dover mentions, is a key part that seems to be missing from the sales motion. With prospects receiving thousands of sales and marketing messages, mastering how to stand out is science. And, building in relevance and personalization is critical to landing a sales meeting. What is a sales disrupter? When it comes to excelling in sales, it often takes unconventional ways. Dr. Dover coined the term “sales disrupter” and I was curious to know what traits embody that title. “A sales disrupter is somebody that doesn't follow the classic Sales Machine. They're willing to break the mold and try new things to personalize and customize the sales experience for potential customers.” This innovative thinking is so important, especially in today's day and age when prospects are leery of getting put into a sales funnel and being aggressively sold to. Dr. Dover finds that sales disrupters do two things extremely well: They look for new ways to authentically connect with and engage prospects and customers to build lasting relationships. They leverage sales technology to enhance their relationships, after they've personally nurtured it. Be sure to download and listen to the full conversation to learn how you can cultivate sales disrupters in your organization to improve sales.

In this episode, Rabbi Joshua returns to a theme that he has been thinking about for decades: do we really need hundreds of types of breakfast cereal, dozens of brands of toothpaste, aisles full of the same condiments? In 2005, he delivered a talk on the theme of hypomania and how this creates a level of paralysis based on too many choices. This episode closes with a piece of a TedTalk from Professor Barry Schwartz based on his book, The Paradox of Choice. Full talk here:https://www.ted.com/talks/barry_schwartz_the_paradox_of_choice?language=enLearn more about Friends In Deed: www.friendsindeedpas.org

Stay tuned for daily classes!

We're in Canada at the International Association of Wildland Fire Conference this week, and will be pulling some folks aside for some quick conversations about the conference themes and the research being presented and discussed. Our first "rapid fire" episode guest is Sarah Henderson, who works for the BC Centre for Disease Control as the scientific director of Environmental Health Services. Sarah has some fascinating insights into our perceptions of wildfire smoke, some common paradoxes that come up in the ways we talk and think about smoke, as well as some legitimate, scalable solutions for reducing the impacts of wildfire smoke, especially on susceptible populations like those experiencing homelessness, those who don't have the financial means of improving indoor air quality and those with preexisting health conditions that make them particularly vulnerable to smoke's impacts. Thanks to Sarah for taking a moment to chat with us, and hopefully this conversation provides some useful context for those who felt the effects of smoke this summer and fall.

"When you travel, you find out what it is you really want. You find out what you're capable of, what your ambitions are." –Paul Theroux In this episode of Deviate, Rolf and Paul talk about how brotherly conflict is a time-honored trope in literature, and how travel can be a way to find your interests and ambitions in life (3:00); the ethical paradoxes and hypocrisies of global charities and industries in a resource-rich place like Africa (9:30); how writing fiction differs from writing nonfiction (19:00); and where Theroux is headed next (22:00). Paul Theroux (@PaulTheroux_) is a pioneer of travel writing and author of many highly acclaimed books, including The Great Railway Bazaar,  The Tao of Travel, and  On the Plain of Snakes.
