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? How do the restrictions on preventive services and reproductive healthcare impact women’s health in Texas? What can regular people do to address these issues?

The Becoming You Show with Leah Roling: Inspire, Impact, & Influence Your Life
What if the very thing you're calling “reckless” is the reason you feel stuck? In this episode of Becoming You, Leah pulls back the curtain on one of the greatest paradoxes in leadership and life: we trust our ideas, we trust our vision… but we don't always trust ourselves. And that lack of self-trust shows up everywhere — in delayed decisions, muted dreams, and the endless loop of overworking without ever feeling enough. You'll discover: Why achievement has become our addiction — and why it never delivers the worth we're chasing. The difference between self-trust (“I believe myself”) and self-worth (“I believe in myself”) — and how to spot where yours is strong and where it's shaky. How to discern between risk and recklessness — and why “playing it safe” may be the riskiest choice of all. Real-life examples of how doubt, disbelief, and “reckless” assumptions keep us from doing what we already know. The surprising way resistance caps your potential — and how to finally break the loop. This episode isn't about learning “how.” You already know how. This is about uncovering why you haven't already — and what it will take to finally trust yourself enough to move. Because here's the truth: Humans who believe in themselves change the world. And when you do, you give everyone around you permission to believe in themselves too. If there's always risk — why not take the risk that gets you closer to your dreams?

Have you ever felt like leading change is more confusing than it should be? In this episode, Kevin welcomes Jeff DeGraff to discuss the complex art of change. Jeff shares why traditional change efforts often stall and how paradoxes can serve as a source of innovation and energy. Together, Kevin and Jeff discuss ideas such as launching change from the edges of an organization, the distinction between science and art in managing transformation, and why experiences, rather than facts, are what truly shift people's perspectives. They also discuss the "paradoxical mindset challenge" and offer practical tools for navigating change more effectively.

In part two of our Severus Snape journey, we dive into the contradictions that define him. Is he truly a good member of the Order of the Phoenix, or simply too useful to ignore? Does being an effective double agent make him admirable—or just strategic? We also ask whether Snape embodies what it means to be a “good Slytherin,” and what that label even means when ambition and loyalty can serve both brilliance and cruelty. Finally, we take on the most complicated question of all: was Snape a “good half-blood”? In tracing how he names himself the Half-Blood Prince while rejecting the very lineage that shaped him, we uncover how blood status in the wizarding world is less about biology than about narrative, choice, and power. This episode explores Snape's usefulness, his loyalties, and his contradictions, all while leaving us with one lingering truth—identity is never neutral, and Snape's is anything but.

"Somebody had to f***ing do it" - The Paradox on being representation pioneers in the emo/pop-punk sceneAt Riot Fest 2025, we sat down with The Paradox, the rising pop-punk band that's redefining what representation looks like in alternative music. From their formation in July 2024 to landing a major tour with All Time Low, Mayday Parade, Four Year Strong, and The Cab, their journey has been nothing short of meteoric. The band gets real about being Black artists in a predominantly white genre, discussing how they're creating the representation they needed in high school. We explore their debut album NSFW, their influences ranging from Taking Back Sunday to Neck Deep, and why being "crybabies" who tell each other "I love you" is actually their greatest strength. This conversation bridges the classic emo era with today's scene, showing how The Paradox is both honoring the past and pushing the genre forward.Key Topics & Timestamps:[00:00] Introduction and the most emo songs they're listening to[01:06] What makes The Paradox so emo - embracing emotions as men[01:53] Discussion of their new album NSFW[02:38] Their first show at Concord and covering Taking Back Sunday[02:55] The band's meteoric rise since forming in 2024[03:15] Upcoming tour with All Time Low, Mayday Parade, and more[03:56] Small bands to watch: Custodians, Zealand, Super Sometimes, Barry Hendricks, Kawaii AF[04:40] Being Black artists in pop-punk and creating necessary representation[05:51] Where to find The Paradox and tour informationEpisode Highlights:"We're very emotional men... One thing I love about us is we're very in touch with our emotions. We tell each other we love each other, give each other hugs... little kiss goodnight.""With that, I think being able to have representation or give representation for people is awesome. Like one of my favorite comments is when people are like, 'Yo, I needed you guys in high school.'""There's not many of us, you know, and all we want to do is just create more of that." JOIN THE CLUB!

Samson's life is a striking paradox—strong before men, yet weak before temptation; anointed by God, yet often compromised by sin. His story mirrors our own, reminding us that gifts without holiness lead to ruin but also pointing us to Jesus, who was victorious in weakness and holy in every way. As we learn from Samson's failures, we are called to lay aside sin and pursue holiness, not in our own strength, but through the power of Christ who redeems and sustains us.

Martin Reeves has spent decades advising CEOs on how to think about strategy. As head of BCG's Henderson Institute, he has built a career challenging leaders to balance efficiency with imagination and to prepare for the next disruptive shift.In this conversation, Martin tells Henrik and Jeremy why AI alone will not give companies an edge and might even strip them of advantage. He unpacks the “two jobs of business”: playing the current game better than anyone else while simultaneously asking what the next game will be. He argues that AI only sharpens this paradox, forcing leaders to think faster, experiment more, and draw on human imagination in new ways.The discussion covers the risks of over-optimization, the future of consulting, and the paradoxes of AI adoption. Along the way, Reeves explains how AI can accelerate exploration, why framing the right questions is the strategist's most important job, and why times of disruption are when number twos become number ones or disappear altogether.Key Takeaways: Strategy is the double gameLong-term success means playing today's game efficiently while also inventing tomorrow's. Henrik and Jeremy stress how rare it is for leaders to do both, yet this is exactly what AI demands.AI efficiency without imagination is a trapAdopting the same tools as competitors drives efficiency but commoditizes advantage. The hosts underline that imagination and unique use are what create real differentiation.The strategist's edge is asking the right questionMartin highlights that strategy starts with framing the real question. Henrik and Jeremy note that questioning and cognitive diversity are crucial in the AI era.Disruption reshuffles winners and losersTimes of change are when number twos become number ones and leaders disappear. The wrap-up emphasizes the urgency of experimenting and adapting now.Human imagination stays essentialAI can accelerate exploration, but creativity, ethics, and originality remain uniquely human — and decisive for future leadership.LinkedIn: Martin Reeves | LinkedInBCG Henderson Institute: Home - BCG Henderson InstituteMartins books: The Imagination Machine // Like: The Button That Changed the World00:00 Intro: Two Jobs in Strategy, Today's Game and Tomorrow's Game01:33 Martin Reeves and the Henderson Institute04:02 Defining Strategy in the AI Era05:12 AI and Human Imagination09:20 Efficiency vs. Competitive Advantage13:18 Organizational Design for the Future23:09 The Paradox of Imagination in Business33:02 Harnessing Serendipity for Innovation35:18 Devil's Advocacy and Meeting Optimization36:51 Where AI Helps and Hurts Organizations38:16 The Limits of AI Training Data42:56 How Martin Uses AI Day to Day47:09 What's the Next Game for Consulting53:15 Final Reflections

Managing the capabilities of an organization's workforce is challenging in the best of times, but the current upheaval created by AI technologies entering the workplace makes it all the more complex. The technologies that have put to work around this problem are many and varied and analyst Ethan Ray joins host Eric Hanselman to look at where we've come from and where we could be headed. There's a rush to determine if new technologies are making workers more productive and what skills are needed to leverage them. Both a recent S&P Global study and the HR Tech conference showed some trends that could be transforming working environments. Workforce intelligence approaches are looking to build a wholistic picture of knowledge, skills and ability of employees and then do skills matching and development planning. As in other technology disciplines, a proliferation of tools has made many organizations' efforts at workforce management complicated. It's another place where many are considering integrated platforms that that can bring together HR, IT and financial teams to better understand the use of tools and resulting productivity. There are questions about what we can and what we should measure to truly understand efficiency and effectiveness. How can we understand what combination of skills and tools are generating the best financial outcomes? Better technology should hold the answer, but the path forward is not always clear.

Guest Bio Yewande Faloyin is the founder of Otito Leadership and a certified executive coach specializing in energy leadership and performance optimization. With a unique background spanning software development at IBM and Morgan Stanley, management consulting at McKinsey, and hedge fund advisory, Yewande brings a holistic approach to leadership development. After experiencing severe burnout, she discovered coaching and became certified in energy leadership, helping leaders move from burnout cycles to sustainable peak performance. Episode Summary In this powerful conversation, Yewande shares her unconventional journey from tech to leadership coaching, driven by a pattern of boredom that led to continuous evolution. We explore the dangerous myth of "pushing through" in high-achievement cultures and why traditional resilience might be keeping us stuck. Yewande introduces her revolutionary framework that moves beyond burnout recovery to true performance optimization - where rest becomes a strategic tool and integration of mind, body, and spirit drives sustainable success. Key Takeaways Boredom as a Compass: What seems like restlessness might actually be your internal guidance system pointing you toward your next evolution The Performance Paradox: True high performance isn't about pushing harder - it's about mastery orientation over outcome orientation Integration Over Separation: The greatest transformations happen when we stop compartmentalizing and start integrating all aspects of ourselves - technical and creative, strategic and intuitive Quality Over Compliance: Going through the motions of self-care (yoga, sleep, nutrition) means nothing if the energy behind them is angry or resentful Rest as Performance Enhancement: Athletes rest 75% of the time - why do knowledge workers think they can perform while running on empty? Memorable Quotes "If it's your calling, it'll keep calling." "I often say that rest is your only legal performance enhancer." "You could choose to rest, I could choose to rest, and yours could be effective and mine might not be because of the how." "No one else's answer makes any difference whatsoever. It's all about you and what's important to you. And that's okay to switch it every single day."

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.

Rick and Dane sit down at HQ to tackle one of the biggest mindset killers: comparison. From Teddy Roosevelt's famous quote to the modern-day pressure of social media, they break down why people feel “behind,” how highlight reels distort reality, and why abundance beats scarcity every time. They share real stories about dealing with hate, celebrating others' wins, and defining success on your own scoreboard. Whether it's business, relationships, or life in general, this episode is about shutting out the noise and focusing on writing your own story.----00:00 - Introduction and Topic Overview00:30 - The Paradox of Modern Comfort and Rising Anxiety01:45 - Social Media's Role in Comparison and Perception02:41 - Personal Experiences with Social Media and Comparison04:22 - The Reality Behind Social Media Highlights05:01 - Supporting Others and Finding Joy Beyond Materialism06:06 - The Two Sides of Social Media: Highlights and Pity Parties07:02 - Scarcity vs Abundance Mindset in Comparison08:18 - Influences and Inspirations Online10:13 - Being Multi-Dimensional and Valuing Personal Relationships11:36 - Comparison in Business and Relationships14:04 - Overcoming Comparison by Focusing on Your Own Path15:30 - The Importance of Defining Your Own Success17:37 - Material Things as Tools and the Pursuit of Happiness19:05 - The Role of Marketing and Social Media Algorithms20:40 - Dealing with Hate and Comparison in Success22:45 - The Value of Time and Long-Term Happiness23:30 - Final Thoughts on Comparison and Personal Growth24:37 - Closing and Call to Action----Follow Us Here!

Sermon NotesI. IntroductionJoseph Campbell (not a Christian, but a student of mythology/religion) observed:“What we are looking for is a way of experiencing the world that will open to us the transcendent...”Human beings are incurably spiritual—we seek transcendence.Some through traditional religions (Christianity, Buddhism, Judaism, Islam).Others through mindfulness, energy work, nature, etc.Two key points:Affirm the desire for transcendence—it is real and God-given.Learn to discern authentic transcendence from false or self-referential spirituality.II. The Text: Exodus 2:23–3:12Context: Moses in Midian, tending sheep near Horeb.Not seeking a spiritual encounter; God initiates it.Key Question: What can we learn about genuine transcendent encounters?Two themes: Person and Paradox.III. The PERSON Moses EncounteredThe Angel of the LORD (v. 2)More than just an angel → identified with God Himself.Possibly the pre-incarnate Christ (Word/Logos).Authentic TranscendenceEncounter with someone other than himself.Not self-discovery or inner potential—real personhood beyond Moses.God is personal, not impersonal force/energy.The Burning Bush SymbolismFire = light, warmth, purification, judgment.Bush not consumed → God is self-sustaining, absolute reality, source of all existence.Childlike question: “Who created God?” → answer: no one. He is the source.Authentic transcendence = encountering the self-existent God who draws near.IV. The PARADOX of God's PresenceGod Knows Moses by Name (v. 4)God is relational, loving, intimately aware of Moses' story.God's nature = love and relationship.But… God's Holiness Creates Distance (v. 5)“Do not come near; take off your sandals, for this is holy ground.”Holiness = God's otherness + moral purity.Human corruption (sin) incompatible with holiness.Illustration: fresh snow → pure → later becomes dirty slush.Result: God is both near and distant → paradox.Resolution of the ParadoxGod Himself provides the way for humans to approach.In Moses' case: humility (remove sandals).Later: OT sacrificial system.Ultimately: Jesus Christ.His cross removes sin barrier.Makes access to God's holy presence possible.Application: Spirit is HOLY; without Christ we would be consumed, with Christ we receive Him with joy.V. ConclusionWe are spiritual beings with souls that crave transcendence.Not every spirituality satisfies—self-focused versions fall short.At the burning bush, Moses encountered:Absolute reality.A personal God.Holy presence made accessible by God's provision.Our souls find satisfaction only in the Triune God—Father, Son, Spirit.Call: Don't settle for less than the real.Discussion Questions:How would you define transcendence? Have you had any experiences in your life that you would describe as transcendent?If, as the sermon suggests, genuine spirituality is not self-referential (simply connecting with more of yourself), is deeper self-knowledge still important? If so, where is it found? Is there a connection between encountering the real God and discovering the real self? How so?Read Exodus 3:3-4. Do you believe it is significant that God did not call to Moses until he turned aside to see the strange sight? Do you think God would have still spoken to Moses if he had not turned aside? How might this speak to the lack of encounters with God that many experience today? As you reflect on that, consider Elizabeth Barrett Browning's poem:Earth's crammed with heaven,And every common bush afire with God,But only he who sees, takes off his shoes,The rest sit round it and pluck blackberries,And daub their natural faces unaware.Read Exodus 3:7-12. What was the ultimate purpose of Moses' encounter with God at the Burning Bush? What was God's purpose for revealing himself to Moses? Is there a link today between our personal encounters with God and a greater purpose like mission?Questions?Do you have a question about today's sermon? Email Randy Forrester ().
In this episode of the Crisis Lab Podcast, host Kyle King breaks down the professional development paradox in emergency management. As challenges grow more complex and interdependent, senior leaders are often stuck between outdated training models and increasing demands. Many find that after 15 years, professional growth slows, leaving them intellectually stranded. Kyle highlights the false choice between tactical training and generic leadership courses, and argues for a third path: intellectual infrastructure that connects seasoned professionals across fields. Drawing from research and real-world conversations, he challenges listeners to rethink how expertise evolves and why staying curious is essential. Show Highlights [00:53] Training cycles vs fast-moving demands [01:40] Fundamentals and cross-sector challenges [02:05] After-action reviews and slow adaptation [03:14] Climate, cyber, and supply chain risks [03:40] Generalist or tactical: a false choice [04:09] Two categories of development, and the gap [05:11] Burnout, low pay, and lack of strategy [06:20] The silo trap of deep expertise [07:33] Routine vs adaptive expertise [09:42] Why leadership programs fall short [11:06] The convergence of complexity and missing support [12:02] What intellectual infrastructure should provide [14:23] The Forum as a new model [16:00] When were you last curious about your field? If that question made you pause, you are not alone. Many experienced professionals are facing complex challenges with training models that no longer fit the realities they work in. The Forum at Crisis Lab was created to give senior leaders a space to learn with peers, test new ideas, and stay sharp in a changing environment.

On Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with Reginald Martin, creator of Kametaphysics, to unpack how “inherited code”—religion, culture, family scripts—quietly shapes our choices long after we think we've moved on. Reginald introduces Paradoxical Heka, a practical, Kemetic-inspired method using breath, voice, and ritual phrasing to hold two truths at once (e.g., “Even though fear is here, I am sustained”) until a calmer third state emerges. We cover identity after deconstruction, spotting “word-salad spirituality,” and how to test spiritual tools for real-world usefulness. Clear, direct, and immediately applicable for high performers, parents, therapists, and coaches. About the guest : Reginald Martin is the spiritual architect behind Kametaphysics, a sovereignty-first framework reconnecting modern coaching/therapy to ancient symbolic roots. His protocol, Paradoxical Heka, helps transmute guilt, shame, fear, and self-doubt while affirming the authentic self. He publishes on Substack at reginaldmartin.substack.com. Key takeaways: Inherited code persists: you can exit a system yet still follow its rules; name the pattern before the story to regain leverage. Paradox > contradiction: hold “this and that” (fear and support) rather than fighting your “shadow.” 90-second practice: pair breath and a paradox phrase; repeat ~9 times to entrain a calmer nervous system state. Evidence of integration: look for a felt peace, goosebumps/energy shifts, and cleaner choices in tough moments. Ditch vague advice: “just surrender” isn't helpful without a concrete method—test ideas for practicality. Leaders & parents: swap “I'm broken/unworthy” for “I'm out of alignment,” then realign with simple, repeatable steps. Symbolism matters: the caduceus metaphor reflects reconciling inner polarities rather than waging inner war. Apply this week: run Hecca before a difficult call or boundary and note shifts in tone, tension, and outcomes.

On the latest episode of Minor Issues, Mark Thornton critiques “green” mandates through the seen–unseen lens, contrasting them with conservation grounded in property rights and price signals. He spotlights silver—vital for electronics, medicine, and water filtration, hard to recycle, and mostly a mining byproduct—now in multi-year supply deficits. Subsidies for solar and EVs accelerate silver consumption and divert it from higher-value uses into short-lived installations. Real conservation comes from ownership, profit and loss, and interest rates, not bureaucratic targets.Donate $5 today to support the Mises Institute's Fall Campaign and receive a physical copy of Hayek for the 21st Century: https://mises.org/mi25A special bonus offer for Minor Issues listeners: donate to the Mises Institute's Fall Campaign and receive a signed copy of Free Trade in the 21st Century: https://mises.org/mi25Be sure to follow Minor Issues at https://Mises.org/MinorIssues
Why do we sometimes refuse help, even when it might be exactly what we need?In this episode I explore what happens when we're feeling sensitised, sensitive, activated or triggered - and why even a simple offer of support can feel like a threat.Together we look at the patterns that sit beneath our instinct to say no: the way our nervous system tries to keep us safe, how dignity and self-concept can override our needs, and why vulnerability can feel so exposing. And we explore the other side too - how accepting help can soothe the body, build trust, and deepen our sense of belonging.This episode feels particularly important in our current times. A chance to build and deepen awareness of our ourselves and others.

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?

Computer scientist turned theologian Dr. Noreen Herzfeld tackles the most pressing questions about artificial intelligence through a theological lens. As we race toward artificial general intelligence while simultaneously destroying our planet's climate, could this be the "great filter" that explains why we haven't found alien civilizations? This groundbreaking lecture explores whether our drive to create AI in our own image reveals something deeply spiritual about human nature—and whether it might lead to our technological doom. This is just one of the three contributors to our special session at Theology Beer Camp where we will wrestle with AI theologically.

What happens when motherhood collides with ambition and the systems around us weren't built to support either?This week, Ashley sits down with Dr. Anne Welsh, a clinical psychologist, executive coach, mom of four, and advocate for working parents. Anne's career has spanned maternal mental health, coaching women in male-dominated industries, and consulting with organizations that are (finally) starting to realize they need to do more for their working parents.In this episode, they explore:Why balance is less of a steady state and more of a constant danceHow ambition shifts and sharpens after becoming a momThe hidden costs of workplaces that frame caregiving as an “individual problem”Why so many women leave corporate life, and what might make them stayThe cultural shift happening as younger parents demand flexibility and supportAnne's perspective is both deeply personal and big-picture. This conversation is a reminder that change starts with one voice—but it doesn't have to end there.
