Podcasts about Paralysis

Andy Stumpf's BUD/S class started with 180 students. 18 graduated. As a BUD/S instructor years later, he got to do something most SEALs never do: sit down with the hundreds who quit and ask them why. The answer was almost always the same.   Joe De Sena talks with Andy, a retired SEAL Team Six operator who was shot during a 2005 deployment, spent eighteen months rehabbing neuropathic nerve damage, and went on to fly charter jets, jump professionally, open a Black Rifle Coffee outpost in Montana, and write the book Drown Proof.   This episode breaks down why the students who quit SEAL training all collapsed the same way, what the difference is between telling someone a run is four miles and telling them to run until you say stop, and why momentum matters more than knowing exactly where you are headed.   Things You Will Learn: The single pattern that appeared in nearly every SEAL training dropout, and why it applies to any goal you have set and abandoned. Why starting to move matters more than knowing exactly where you are going. What changes when you shift from macro goals to micro execution under pressure. Tools & Frameworks Covered: Momentum Over Azimuth: Start moving before you have a perfect plan. Paralysis comes from needing the destination to be clear before taking the first step. Movement creates clarity. Stillness creates doubt. Macro Goal, Micro Living: Set the big target, then forget it. Shrink your world to the next step, the next hill, the next rep. The students who quit SEAL training all failed the same way: their view of time expanded until the distance between where they stood and the finish overwhelmed them. Ask for Help as Strength: The toughest people Stumpf has known all share one trait: when they hit the limit of their knowledge, they find an expert. When they are struggling, they ask. Nobody can read your mind. Until you ask, the people who care about you cannot help you.   'Heads up!

At eleven, his father mentioned the Navy SEALs once, and the idea absorbed every decision that followed. He enlisted at seventeen, barely graduated high school, and never looked back.   Andy served ten deployments as a SEAL Team Six operator. In 2005, he was shot during a mission, suffered neuropathic nerve damage, and spent eighteen months rehabbing as a BUD/S instructor, where he studied why the vast majority of candidates quit on their lifelong goals.   Andy got commissioned as an officer without a college degree, finished his career on a West Coast team, and went on to fly charter jets, jump professionally, teach skydiving, launch a nine-year podcast, and open a Black Rifle Coffee outpost in Kalispell, Montana. His book, Drown Proof, was published in April 2025.   Connect to Andy: Website: https://thestringbean.co/about/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thestring.bean/?hl=en YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/ClearedHotPodcast X: https://x.com/AndyStumpf77

There's a version of a deer hunter I used to be that I'm not proud of. He had all the intel, knew the thermals, understood the wind, watched the forecast, and then... sat at home. The conditions weren't quite right. Maybe tomorrow. That guy left a lot of deer in the woods. This episode is about that guy. More specifically, it's about why waiting for perfect is one of the most expensive habits in deer hunting. Not because patience is bad. Patience is a weapon. But there's a version of patience that's really just fear dressed up in camo, and if you've ever talked yourself out of a sit that you later regretted, you know exactly what I'm talking about. What I've come to understand is that deer hunting doesn't run on certainty. It runs on probability. You are never going to know. The deer might not show. The wind might shift. That buck you've been watching might have already changed his pattern three days ago and nobody told you. You're working with incomplete information every single time you climb into that tree, and the sooner you make peace with that, the better hunter you become. The mistake most hunters make isn't hunting in bad conditions. It's confusing hesitation with strategy. There's a difference between sitting out a sit because the wind is genuinely wrong and you'd be torching a spot you've invested months into, versus sitting out a sit because you're scared to burn an opportunity and walk away empty. One of those is discipline. The other is paralysis. In this episode, I walk through a framework I've been using to evaluate when to hunt. Not a magic checklist. Not some algorithm. Just a set of questions I ask myself before I decide whether to go or stay home, built around managing risk instead of chasing certainty. It's changed how I think about the calendar, the forecast, and the pressure I put on myself in the moments that actually matter. If you've ever driven home from a sit where you did everything right and still came up empty, and you're wondering what the point was, this one's for you. The point was the decision. That's all you ever really control.

Seeing a strange being in her bedroom doorway as a young child, while her parents were at a neighbour's house. And an out-of-body experience when she was around 11/12. While she was asleep, she experienced a force pulling her up and saw herself sleeping. She felt panicked and unable to move for quite some time before waking up on her bedroom floor.More information on this episode on the podcast website:https://ufochroniclespodcast.com/ep-270-the-astronomers-sighting/Want to share your encounter on the show?Email: UFOChronicles@gmail.comOr Fill out Guest Form:https://forms.gle/uGQ8PTVRkcjy4nxS7Podcast Merchandise:https://www.teepublic.com/user/ufo-chronicles-podcastHelp Support UFO CHRONICLES by becoming a Patron:https://patreon.com/UFOChroniclespodcastX: https://x.com/UFOchronpodcastAll Links for Podcast:https://linktr.ee/UFOChroniclesPodcastThank you for listening!Like share and subscribe it really helps me when people share the show on social media, it means we can reach more people and more witnesses and without your amazing support, it wouldn't be possible.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/ufo-chronicles-podcast--3395068/support.

Adversity has a way of stripping away the masks, excuses, and illusions we carry and revealing what truly matters. In this episode, Dr. Dan speaks with leadership catalyst, bestselling author, speaker, U.S. Army veteran, and lifelong martial artist Marcus Aurelius Anderson about transforming adversity from something we simply endure into something we can use. While preparing to deploy with the U.S. Army, Marcus suffered a catastrophic spinal injury that left him paralyzed from the neck down. He flatlined twice during surgery and was told he would likely never walk or use his hands again. What followed was an intense period of anger, grief, depression, and ultimately radical acceptance that fundamentally changed how Marcus viewed his life. Marcus shares how focusing on his breath gave him something he could control, how gratitude began to replace anger, and how recognizing that his injury may have prevented others from being harmed became a turning point in his recovery. Dr. Dan and Marcus explore the difference between knowing and doing, and why knowledge and potential mean little without consistent action. Marcus explains the philosophy behind Acta Non Verba… actions, not words… and why waiting for the perfect time can keep us from becoming who we are capable of becoming. They also discuss authenticity in an increasingly artificial world, the role of compassion and pragmatic empathy in leadership, and why self-awareness starts with being willing to look honestly at our own imperfections. Marcus invites listeners to notice the difference between everyday frustrations and life's deeper challenges. Instead of reacting to every inconvenience as if it's a crisis, he encourages us to meet real adversity with curiosity and presence. Rather than resisting what's hard, we can ask what it's here to teach us and allow those experiences to shape who we're becoming. This conversation is a reminder that adversity does not have to define us or defeat us. With courage, gratitude, self-awareness, and action, friction can become traction and some of life's hardest experiences can become catalysts for purpose, growth, leadership, and deeper connection. Key Takeaways Adversity reveals what matters. Marcus believes adversity doesn't tell us who we are—it strips away what we are not, forcing us to confront ourselves without the masks and illusions. Potential without action means very little. Knowledge, wisdom, plans, and intentions only become meaningful when we consistently put them into practice. Focus on what you can control. Marcus identifies three things within our control: our thoughts, our beliefs, and our actions. Gratitude can change our relationship with adversity. Radical acceptance and genuine gratitude helped Marcus shift from anger toward possibility during his recovery. Turn friction into traction. The very thing creating discomfort can become something we use to step up, grow, and move to the next level. Authenticity is powerful leadership. Real connection requires self-awareness, compassion, honesty, and the courage to tell people what they need to hear. Stop waiting to live your mission. There may never be a perfect time. Marcus challenges listeners to stop circling what they know they need to face and begin acting now.

Lainy Sharpe began to feel numbness in her legs, followed by paralysis when she was 12 years old in the summer of 2023. Her diagnosis was Mesenchymal Chondrosarcoma, which as rare of a diagnosis as it gets. Lainy fought as hard as possible before passing away in January of 2025 and was very much a part of the Pediatric Cancer community during her fight, which was proven by her winning the Children's Healthy Hero Award for her dedication to helping others at Banner Children's Hospital in Tucson, Arizona.

Have you ever presented the perfect solution to a prospect, only to have them reject it simply because you told them exactly what to do? When someone dictates our actions, our natural human tendency is to reject the demand because we feel forced against our will. People have an innate need for freedom and the ability to make their own choices. If you don't offer options to your audience, they will experience psychological resistance and attempt to restore their freedom. So, what exactly is the strategy of using choices and options? Offering choices, sometimes called "binds" or the alternative close, means presenting your prospect with a structured selection of two or three options where they get to make the final decision. Instead of giving them a strict "yes or no" ultimatum, you provide a few controlled alternatives that all lead to a successful outcome for you. This approach satisfies their deep psychological need for autonomy while keeping you firmly in control of the persuasion process. When it comes to selling and influencing others, providing options is how you bypass the cold brick wall of resistance. Structured choices give your audience the impression of control, which naturally increases their cooperation and commitment to the final deal. Instead of acting like a pushy salesperson dictating terms, you become a trusted consultant who empowers them to make an informed decision. Because they feel like they made the choice of their own free will, they essentially persuade themselves, significantly reducing buyer's remorse.

What happens to the mind and spirit in the moments between waking and sleep? In this episode of Fridays Are for the Lord, Ed Mabrie of Faith By Reason joins the Nephilim Death Squad crew for a wide-ranging discussion about spiritual warfare, sleep paralysis, nighttime anxiety, brainwave frequencies, prayer, generational blessings, and forgiveness.Ed explains why he believes spiritual attacks often intensify when people are falling asleep, waking up, or experiencing the vulnerable mental state associated with dreams. The conversation explores the conscious and unconscious mind, alpha, beta, theta, and delta states, the “veil” between the physical and spiritual realms, 3 A.M. awakenings, night terrors, and whether tools commonly associated with binaural beats or New Age spirituality can be redirected toward biblical meditation, Scripture, and spiritual preparedness.The discussion then turns to morning routines, social media overload, intrusive thoughts, fear, and anxiety. The hosts examine how Christians can distinguish ordinary stress from a spiritual attack, take every thought captive in Christ, pray repeatedly without falling into vain repetition, and approach God honestly as a Father. They reference the Psalms of David, the Sermon on the Mount, the Pharisees, biblical fasting, authentic prayer, and the danger of performative religion.Later, Ed and the crew debate whether prayer has a transactional or judicial dimension. They discuss Genesis, God's rest, David and Solomon, Jesus praying for future believers, salvation by grace through faith, heavenly rewards, obedience, praying “in Jesus' name,” and the difference between salvation and reward. The episode also examines generational blessings through Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Esau, and the twelve tribes of Israel, along with spiritual inheritance, generational curses, and leaving children more than material wealth.The conversation closes with forgiveness and gratitude as offensive spiritual warfare. Forgiveness is presented not as approving evil, but as refusing personal vengeance and turning judgment over to God.What do you believe happens spiritually during sleep? Can biblical prayer, gratitude, and forgiveness change the way Christians confront spiritual attacks?

This episode of NDS Chronicles brings together listener-submitted paranormal testimonies involving mantis beings, demonic attacks, haunted houses, shadow people, spiritual warfare, and possible divine intervention. The Raven is joined by Matthew from Straight Bible as they examine each encounter through a Christian worldview while mixing serious Biblical discernment with trademark NDS humor.The first testimony follows Dallas Spitfire through a disturbing relationship that escalates from gaslighting and violent behavior to revelations about a haunted house, shadow people, a flying Batman figure, occult coloring imagery, and a Medusa-like interdimensional demon he first encountered as a child. The conversation also explores marriage, divorce, relationship red flags, polyamory, spiritual oppression, and the danger of ignoring patterns that point toward demonic influence.Next, a listener describes using ketamine, Molly, meditation, alchemical imagery, and undefined spirituality before experiencing a terrifying demonic manifestation. The hosts explain why Eastern-style meditation, astral projection, New Age practices, and praying to an undefined “god” can open dangerous spiritual doors.Another testimony recounts hearing his mother's voice call him out from beneath a car seconds before the jack collapsed. The event is compared with Samuel hearing God through the voice of Eli in 1 Samuel 3, raising questions about divine protection and how God may communicate.HGTV Holly then shares a chilling account of tinnitus, whispering voices, mysterious spiritual “downloads,” thyroid cancer, and the sudden end of the activity after surgery. The episode closes with a sleep paralysis encounter involving a tall mantis being, an astral body, Reiki, temporary supernatural healing, familiar spirits, and the Biblical interpretation of so-called alien entities.Which testimony stood out most to you? Do mantis beings, shadow people, and New Age entities represent different phenomena—or the same demonic deception wearing different masks?

What happens when one of the internet's most well-known paranormal storytellers sits down with Nephilim Death Squad for a deep discussion about cryptids, demonic encounters, spiritual warfare, the Courts of Heaven, sleep paralysis, Bigfoot, Dogman, Leviathan, and biblical discernment?In this episode, David Lee Corbo (The Raven) and TopLobsta welcome James Williams of Dark Waters for an unforgettable conversation that goes far beyond scary stories. James shares how he transitioned from collecting real paranormal testimonies to teaching Christians about prayer, spiritual authority, and seeking God's justice through the Courts of Heaven. The discussion explores why so many people report encounters with unexplained entities, how to distinguish genuine spiritual experiences from deception, and why Christians should approach the paranormal through a thoroughly biblical worldview.The conversation dives into eyewitness accounts involving Bigfoot, Dogman, cryptids, UFOs, alien encounters, sleep paralysis, demonic oppression, Leviathan, water spirits, deliverance ministry, and the Flood of Noah, while emphasizing the importance of testing every experience against Scripture. James explains how years of interviewing witnesses shaped his understanding of the unseen realm and why prayer, repentance, and faith in Jesus Christ remain central to spiritual victory.Whether you're interested in Nephilim, supernatural encounters, biblical prophecy, conspiracy research, or spiritual warfare, this episode offers thoughtful discussion without abandoning biblical foundations. The hosts also discuss discernment, deception, and the growing public fascination with the paranormal, encouraging believers to remain grounded in God's Word rather than sensationalism.What do you think explains these encounters? Are cryptids physical creatures, spiritual manifestations, or something else entirely?

RJ Spina, a metaphysician who healed himself from chest-down "permanent" paralysis, reveals that suffering isn't real—only your mistaken ownership of a character that was never truly you. From being told he had 48 hours to live to feeling pure joy while his body broke down, RJ shows that liberation comes when you stop identifying with your thoughts, pain, and story. He witnessed agonizing pain without suffering, proving that you are the awareness watching the storm, not the storm itself.Using metaphors like the sun (untouched by weather) and the time-lapse camera (unaffected by the fire it records), he explains that healing isn't a process—it's an instant release of crystallized identity. The ego mind keeps you trapped by turning everything into a drawn-out journey, but letting go can happen in a single second.We explore why narcissists are a separate genus of being designed as catalysts for your evolution, why the soul deliberately chooses trauma for accelerated growth, why unconditional love is actually a spiritual control agenda, the one-second meditation technique, why pain and pleasure are identical sensations at higher consciousness, and how manifesting wealth operates through the exact same inner mechanics as healing your body.Your character gets traumatized—but you, the I AM, have never been touched. Will you keep rearranging furniture in the same room, or finally step out of the house entirely?___

This week, the White House accused Chinese-owned Moonshot AI of distilling Anthropic's Fable 5 to build their much talked about Kimi K3 model. Zoë, Leah, and Brian break down whether this is a repeat of the DeepSeek moment and what it means for the AI race between the U.S and China. They also get into how the U.S Army — and plenty of Silicon Valley companies — are having to cut back AI usage after burning through their tokens. Plus, we discuss why you should check if you have an alarm that could make your car easier to hack, and how OpenAI briefly lost control of two AI models during a security test.  Articles mentioned in this episode: The White House Is Trying to Figure Out What to Do About Chinese AI | WIRED  OpenAI Models Escaped Containment and Hacked Hugging Face | WIRED  A Device Hidden in Cars Across the US Leaves Them Vulnerable to Hacking and Paralysis.

“If you do nothing, you will get nothing.” Former IndyCar champion Sam Schmidt joins host Alycia Anderson for a powerful conversation about spinal cord injury recovery, quadriplegia, adaptive technology, disability advocacy, neurorehabilitation, resilience, and life after paralysis. After a 180-mile-per-hour crash changed his life in an instant, Sam transformed an unimaginable diagnosis into a mission rooted in recovery, innovation, and purpose. “If you don't try, you won't know.” Sam shares how he went from winning his first IndyCar race in 1999 to surviving a devastating high-level spinal cord injury and waking up dependent on a ventilator. When doctors predicted a short life in a nursing home, his family refused to accept that prognosis. Their relentless advocacy connected Sam with intensive spinal cord injury rehabilitation that helped him breathe independently, rebuild his health, and begin creating a future with no finish line. Two important themes emerge from Sam's story: never accept one person's prognosis as the final answer, and learn how to advocate for the rehabilitation, equipment, and healthcare support you need. Sam and Alycia explore the realities of insurance advocacy, accessible healthcare, caregiver support, mental health, aging with disability, and long-term spinal cord injury rehabilitation. Sam explains how he negotiated for the equipment, therapy, and resources that supported his independence while challenging a healthcare system that too often limits recovery before it has truly begun. “Racing is my passion. DRIVEN Neuro is my purpose.” The conversation also explores Sam's memoir, No Finish Line: A Racer's Journey of Passion, Perseverance, and Purpose, his championship-winning racing career, and the growth of DRIVEN Neuro, a nonprofit expanding access to activity-based neurorecovery, adaptive fitness, neurological rehabilitation, wellness programs, and disability community support for people living with spinal cord injuries and other neurological conditions. Sam's story is more than a comeback. It is a call to action about self-advocacy, perseverance, accessible innovation, teamwork, and finding purpose after a life-changing injury. As Sam reminds us, progress may look different for every person, but possibility begins when we choose to take action. Racing, Recovery, Advocacy, and Purpose: The Big Takeaways from Sam Schmidt

Have you ever worked with a child who seems extremely cautious, shuts down when something feels hard, or gives up before they even get started? There may be more going on than meets the eye.In this episode, we take a closer look at the Fear Paralysis Reflex (FPR), one of the lesser-known primitive reflexes that can have a significant impact on a child's development. We explain what the reflex is, why it serves an important purpose before birth, and what it can look like if it's retained beyond infancy.Together, we explore how a retained Fear Paralysis Reflex may contribute to challenges like anxiety, perfectionism, selective mutism, low self-esteem, emotional regulation, and an intense fear of making mistakes. We also share why it's so important to look beyond behavior, connect with the child in front of you, and remember that your therapeutic relationship is often more powerful than any activity you have planned.Whether you're a therapist, educator, or parent, this episode will help you better understand the nervous system and offer a more compassionate lens for supporting children who seem fearful, hesitant, or overwhelmed.LinksWe'd love to answer your questions on the podcast!

June 24, 2026: Meta's employee surveillance program, which tracked keystrokes, mouse activity, and screenshots before a data exposure forced the company to pause it. Then I get into Legion's lawsuit against the U.S. government after losing access to Anthropic's Fable 5 model, showing how frontier AI access is becoming a new business dependency and supply chain risk. I also look at software engineers facing workplace paralysis as AI models keep changing faster than people can master them, and why AI rollouts may be burning out the very high performers companies need most.

Perfection can look professional. But sometimes it is just procrastination in disguise. In this episode of The Level Up Podcast, Paul Alex breaks down why speed beats polish when you are trying to launch, test, and grow. Let's be real… If you spend months tweaking the logo… Changing the font… Perfecting the website… And adjusting every tiny detail… But your offer is still not live… You are not building a business. You are delaying the market. In this episode, you'll learn: Why perfection often becomes a form of procrastination How over-polishing kills speed, feedback, and cash flow Why the market only cares if your offer solves a real problem How launching fast helps you collect data and improve faster The truth is simple: The market rewards the fast. Not the flawless. Your first version will not be perfect. Your first launch will not be perfect. Your first offer will not be perfect. But none of that matters if you are willing to improve in public. High-level operators do not hide behind endless tweaking. They launch. They listen. They adjust. They let real customers tell them what needs to change. Because feedback from the market is worth more than perfection in private. Stop polishing something nobody has seen. Put the offer out there. Collect the data. Fix it on the fly. And keep leveling up. Your Network is your NETWORTH!

Every medical treatment needs to start with a diagnosis, but sometimes that diagnosis proves elusive. Sometimes it may appear that a person has one thing needing treatment, and after that treatment doesn't work, doctors have to consider other possibilities. Dr. Amit Kochhar at Pacific Neuroscience Institute sees patients with facial paralysis, which is often diagnosed as Bell's Palsy or Ramsey Hunt Syndrome—but sometimes turns out to be a cancerous tumor on a facial nerve. Doctors try to figure that out as quickly as possible, so they can remove the tumor and begin the work of restoring the patient's appearance. In today's episode, Dr. Kochhar describes these various symptoms and explains how he reaches the right diagnosis and treatment for his patients.

Making the decision is the hard part. Most of us never actually do it. We deliberate, analyze, talk ourselves in and out of it, and at the last possible second we cave and pick the safest option on the menu. Then we wonder why nothing's changing. In Day 7 of the What Fits You 8-Day Mini Course, we're addressing the actual move you've been avoiding for the last six days. By the end, you'll know how to make a decision that opens momentum, not one that creates more pressure to be perfect. You don't have to decide the rest of your life. You just have to decide the next step. What you'll learn: Why making the decision is harder than knowing what the right one is How not deciding is still deciding, and what it costs you The Emerson and Tony Robbins reframes that make career decisions feel less like cliffs Why an imperfect decision still beats the perfect one you never make The specific size of decision you should be focused on right now, and how to make it   Our book, Happen To Your Career: An Unconventional Approach To Career Change and Meaningful Work, is now available on audiobook!

This week on the podcast, you'll hear from a coach who closes consistent deals in the exact market everyone else is calling "stuck."   Kristi Jencks is a Tom Ferry coach who guides 40 coaching clients, sells 20+ homes a year, and is raising eight children — and she still treats every listing as a way to test scripts she can pass to her clients. In this conversation, she breaks down why the real estate market feels frozen right now, and why the problem lives in your clients' heads, not in the rate sheet.   If your pipeline is full of "great" leads who just won't pull the trigger… this episode names exactly what's stopping them, and gives you the scripts to move them forward.    In this episode, you'll learn: The Three-Layer Diagnosis: What clients say vs. what's actually stopping them. The 25% Overprice Problem: Why sellers swear their home is worth more than it is. Loss Aversion at the Table: The quirk freezing your best deals at the finish line. The Buy-Now-vs-Later Calculator: The math that ends "let's just wait." Credibility Trackers: How to swap your opinion for hard proof. The "Field Research" Edge: Why Kristi still takes listings on purpose.   Everything Kristi teaches her clients runs on the structure of Tom Ferry coaching — the same system behind agents who keep closing while the rest of the market waits.   Ready to unstick the deals sitting frozen in your pipeline?   Schedule a free call with a Tom Ferry consultant to learn more about coaching and see if it's right for you.

In this Huberman Lab Essentials episode, my guest is Dr. Eddie Chang, MD, a neurosurgeon and Chair of the Department of Neurological Surgery at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF). We discuss the neural circuits underlying speech and language, including how the brain controls the larynx, vocal folds and articulators to shape breath into words. We also explore his pioneering work on speech neural prosthetics — brain-machine interfaces that allow paralyzed patients to communicate by decoding neural activity into speech and avatar-driven facial expressions. Additionally, we examine the neurobiology of stuttering, the role of auditory feedback in fluent speech, and the broader ethical questions surrounding brain augmentation technologies.
