Connor Boyack, creator of the Tuttle Twins series, joins Jason to share how he is empowering parents to teach young children the foundational principles of free markets and classical liberalism - and making it fun while he's at it. He also reveals the "devious strategy" behind the series, how these children's books are secretly educating adults on economic principles, and emphasizes why instilling these values early in life is more important now than it ever has been before.  Bring on the Stupid: A giant iguana wreaks havoc at a Tennessee FedEx store after gnawing its way out of a cardboard shipping box.

On his first night working alone at a historic hotel, Trevor is handed a list of bizarre rules he assumes are nothing more than new-guy hazing. Then one mistake turns the quiet building into something impossible, and the guests begin changing in terrifying ways. By midnight, Trevor realizes the rules were never meant to protect the hotel—they were meant to keep something from getting out.

A young woman's parents found her brutally murdered in the back seat of her own car, her face so badly mutilated they could barely recognize her. But less than 24 hours later, forensic testing revealed something impossible—the dead woman wasn't their daughter. Their daughter was still alive… and police were beginning to suspect she knew exactly who was lying in that car.

Ever wondered if your greenhouse control system is actually helping—or if it's leaving you in the dark about your energy bills? I've been there, and that's exactly what we dig into in this episode.Joining me are Neda, CEO and co-founder of Microclimates, and Gretchen, Executive Director at the Greenhouse Lighting and Systems Engineering Consortium at Cornell, whose combined expertise covers everything from cutting-edge environmental controls to energy efficiency in controlled environment agriculture. Neda has an extensive background in developing technologies that empower growers with actionable data, while Gretchen brings years of research experience with leading universities and utility-backed initiatives in optimizing greenhouse lighting and automation.This episode unpacks the real-world findings from the CalNEX Project—a first-of-its-kind scientific study focused on the impact of smart environmental monitoring and controls in California greenhouses. We compare “smart” and “smarter” systems, revealing surprising industry gaps in environmental data collection, misunderstood overhead costs, and how simple steps can lead to significant energy savings and business sustainability.Beyond the results, we chat about practical steps for adopting automation without ripping out your current systems, new open-platform sensor trends, the reality (and future) of AI in controlled ag, and why a phased, data-driven approach will be key for small and large growers alike. If you're daunted by all the talk of sensors, integration, or AI, consider this the guide to understanding what actually matters—and what you can do today.Curious if you're missing an easy win in your farm's energy management, or want a reality check on all the AI hype? Tune in now and turn your environmental data into your biggest asset!Thanks to Our SponsorsCEA Summit East - https://indoor.ag/cea-summit-east-2025/Indoor AgCon - https://indoor.ag/Key Takeaways00:00 Discussing the CalNEX Project findings03:17 Smart Controls Project achievements07:52 Improving greenhouse energy efficiency10:34 Energy consumption misconceptions12:57 Diverse systems in cannabis farming19:10 Automating greenhouse light management22:22 Operational impacts in construction projects25:40 Consulting on greenhouse tech needs27:50 Discussing phased approach for innovations29:57 Phased approach to AI implementation35:51 Parental influence on IT security37:02 Adopting AI and Automation Tools41:17 Starting with basic crop monitoring43:32 Indoor farming control techniques46:39 Year of retrofits and opportunities49:46 Appreciating industry partnershipsTweetable Quotes"Our job is to complement what's already there. The projects Gretchen mentioned, every site had something different… Our job wasn't to go in and just say, rip everything out for this control study and start over because we want to collect the data. It was really to take a look at what do you currently have, how can we complement that with adding more environmental insight, environmental visibility to that operation, and is there a way that we can integrate what you currently have?" "I'd say the biggest surprise and biggest lesson was that they didn't have enough environmental visibility. A lot of these operations had maybe one temperature humidity sensor hanging in the middle of the room representing the entire greenhouse or a section of the greenhouse. Your control system is only as good as the information it's taking in, like the input, right?""If you don't have the thousands of data points, if you can't summarize the trends, if you can't make any recommendations and alerts, and you can't generate those reports based on the thousand data points, how is this AI going to actually get to know you?... First of all, we have to step back and say, are operators actually collecting data? We already said early on in this conversation they are, but they don't have enough environmental visibility, which means they actually are not collecting enough data."Resources MentionedWebsite - www.microclimates.comYouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@Microclimates-IncInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/microclimatesFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/microclimates.incLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/microclimatesLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/gschimelpfenig/Resource Innovation Institute - https://resourceinnovation.org/ Microclimates - https://microclimates.com/ Priva Control Systems - https://www.priva.com/Ritter Greenhouse Automation - https://rittergreenhouse.com/Connect With UsVFP LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/verticalfarmingpodcastVFP Twitter - https://twitter.com/VerticalFarmPodVFP Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/direct/inbox/VFP Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/VerticalFarmPodSubscribe to our newsletters!AgTech Digest - https://agtechdigest.comThe Indoor Farmer - https://www.indoorverticalfarm.com/Horti-Gen Insights - https://www.hortigeninsights.com/

At the end of each week, Mike Hosking takes you through the big-ticket items and lets you know what he makes of it all. Our Covid response: 5/10 In totality it looks like a thing you do to score some points against the other guys, with no real sense there is any accountability and no real assurance it won't be the same next time. Parental leave: 5/10 Political misstep of the week. Took a decent idea, then turned it into an inter-coalition bitch slap. Gregg's: 3/10 First the peaches, then the coffee. What's next? Jaffas? Oh, wait. The new tariffs: 2/10 Between them, the courts, and the war, the Trump presidency, if not already in flames, looks increasingly combustible. Zoe Hobbs: 7/10 My pick of the success stories from Glasgow. Seemed overwhelmed, grateful, and pleased she could prove the doubters wrong.

Parental rights have long occupied an important place in American law and political thought. While the Supreme Court today generally recognizes parental rights as fundamental, the constitutional foundations of those rights remain the subject of significant debate. Modern doctrine, reflected in cases such as Meyer v. Nebraska, Pierce v. Society of Sisters, Troxel v. Granville, and more recent disputes involving parental authority over children’s education and upbringing, largely rests on substantive due process—a doctrine that itself remains controversial.This webinar will explore parental rights from their roots in natural law and the political thought of the American Founding through their development in modern constitutional jurisprudence. What did the Founders understand the parent-child relationship to entail, and how did earlier natural-law traditions shape those views? How did parental rights come to be recognized as fundamental within American constitutional law? And looking forward, what is the strongest constitutional foundation for protecting parental rights? Should substantive due process remain the primary vehicle, or are there alternative constitutional grounds that may provide a more secure basis for these protections?Featuring:Michael P.

Divorce is traumatic for children at every age—but parents can either deepen that wound or help their children heal.In this conversation, licensed clinical social worker and psychoanalyst Erica Komisar explains why a “good divorce” requires parents to stop focusing on what feels fair to them and start prioritizing what their children actually need. She shares practical ways to create stability, reduce emotional damage, and protect children from being pulled into adult conflict.In this episode, you'll learn:Why frequent transitions between homes can destabilize childrenHow to tell children about a divorce without overwhelming themWhy parents must avoid oversharing, badmouthing, and using children as messengersHow a parent's emotional regulation affects a child's ability to copeWhy flexibility, sacrifice, and stability matter more than rigid ideas of fairnessIf you're divorced, considering divorce, or trying to help your child adjust to a family breakup, this episode is for you.Learn more about Erica Komisar, her books, and her workGet the free guide, “7 Ways to Work Through the Pain of Your Parents' Divorce”Get the free guide, “10 Tips to Help Someone Whose Parents Are Separating or Divorcing”

What does it actually take to build the people function at a company that went from a design tool to a global platform of 5,500 people?Jennie Rogerson, Chief People Officer at Canva, joins Jessica Neal and co-host Peter Clarke on Truth Works for a conversation about culture as an operating system, not a perk.Jennie's path into the role is one of the more unlikely ones in tech. She came up through hospitality, running restaurant floors where 220 covers a night meant 220 individual experiences to manage. She moved into hospitality tech, then got dragged to an after-work Canva workshop on making better presentations — and walked out convinced she had to work there.She applied. She didn't get the jobs. A colleague told her to look elsewhere. She ignored the advice.When the executive assistant role for co-founders Melanie Perkins and Cliff Obrecht opened up, thousands of people applied, and Jennie had no experience in the domain. So instead of a resume, she built a website. Canva launched Canva Websites the night before she planned to send it, so she rebuilt the entire thing on the product overnight. Then she spotted a line in Cliff's LinkedIn bio — "you're great, we're hiring" — and sent it to him directly.The interview process was two live challenges and a lot of real-time pushback. By the end of it, the role had been rewritten into something new: Leadership Operations, a chief-of-staff seat between the founders and the leadership team. Eighteen months later, Cliff called on a Sunday to offer her the top people job. Her first response was to ask if he'd lost his mind. She took it as an interim role. It's been years.Jennie is refreshingly clear that Canva hasn't figured everything out,  especially around parental leave re-onboarding, which she says most companies get wrong and hers is still actively learning. But what they have built is worth studying: managers are called coaches, performance reviews are called Growth and Impact, and every employee can anonymously submit to the Fix It Form, which has been running for roughly eight years and asks two questions — what's broken, and what's your solution.The conversation also gets into the support playbooks Canva built for grief and loss, family and domestic violence, and cancer and long illness — written with the employees who lived through those moments, and then open-sourced so any company can use them. One of them started as a single Fix It Form submission from someone who had lost their wife.And on hiring: Canva's CMO started as a communications intern. One of their AI researchers was found on a Discord community while he was stocking supermarket shelves. Those sit alongside senior hires from Zoom, Uber and Google — because the blend is where the value is.TOPICS COVERED:- Why hospitality is underrated training for building a people function- Getting hired with a website instead of a resume- The interview challenge that turned into a brand new role- Being offered the top people job with no HR background- Why culture is everyone's accountability, not the people team's- The Fix It Form — anonymous, always on, and it requires a solution- Why Canva calls managers "coaches" and reviews "Growth and Impact"- What a performance cycle looks like when it isn't a box-ticking exercise- Season openers and building public accountability into the calendar- Parental leave re-onboarding and why nobody has solved it yet- Building and open-sourcing the Grief and Loss guide- Talking about family and domestic violence at work- The risk of not talking about hard things- Finding talent internally and hiring for curiosity over pedigree- Using AI to draft the process, then keeping humans in the loopMost of this episode comes back to one idea. Jennie was hired into a role she was unqualified for on paper, by people who were looking for something other than a track record. Everything she has built since runs on the same logic — the AI researcher on Discord, the intern who became CMO, the engineers she invites to tear apart her own processes because they're the ones actually living inside them.Her closing challenge cuts both ways. If you're running an organization, the person who could take the next big step is probably already inside it, waiting for someone to bet on them. And if you're the one looking for what's next, the most interesting move might not be the logical one on paper — it might be the thing you're genuinely curious about.Which is why the line she keeps returning to isn't really about Canva at all:You don't join Canva to experience the culture. You join Canva to be the culture.Truth Works is hosted by Jessica Neal,  former Chief Talent Officer at Netflix, now in the business of telling the truth about how work really works.

PXY Mornings w/ Moose and Breezy! 8am Hour: Parental Confidential - This father gave away his sons dog that the child begged for repeatedly. Was the reason behind the final decision valid?

Spoiler: Stick around to the end to hear Seth do a Justin Bieber/Shema mashup... What if salvation isn't about escaping our humanity but restoring it? This episode unpacks a revolutionary view: human beings are inherently divine images—nouns and verbs—created to reflect God's character and creativity into the world. But somewhere along the way, that sacred image is fractured, leading to spiritual abuse, dehumanization, and disconnection from ourselves and others. In this episode, we explore the biblical concept of being fully human as God originally intended—images and likenesses of God, called to image and "verb" humanity into the world. We discuss how understanding our created purpose impacts our view of spirituality, identity, and the fight against spiritual abuse.The biblical foundation of human dignity: imagery and likeness in GenesisThe significance of image-bearing as verb and noun: (re)imagining God into the worldHumanity's role in creation: exercise of sovereignty, rule, and subduing with purposeThe concept of glory and honor: humans crowned when acting as God's imageThe impact of idolatry: exchanging God's glory for created things, resulting in dehumanizationThe recovery of humanity through Christ: becoming conformed to Jesus' image in ongoing transformation Timestamps:00:00 - Welcome and episode overview: rediscovering what it means to be fully human 02:08 - Parental stories and everyday life as reflections of human image-bearers 03:19 - Introducing the series: spiritual abuse and the importance of being fully human 06:06 - How bad religion binds us and takes us away from our true humanity 06:54 - Humanity's broad scope: body, spirit, and all aspects of life as God's image 07:25 - Genesis 1: Making humans in our image and likeness—temple language 08:47 - Image as physical representation of divine power: statues of gods and kings 09:47 - Humanity as living idols: embodying God's character and purposes 10:45 - Humanity's role to rule, subdue, and create potential in creation 12:10 - Purposeful rule: exercising sovereignty and cultivating the world 14:37 - The divine breath and humanity: dirt plus divine spirit 15:32 - Material and immaterial unity: embodying God's spirit and image 16:14 - Humanity's role in worship through work and loving care of creation 17:10 - Names and authority: humans mirroring God's naming as image bearers 19:07 - The human's shared authority with God: law, naming, and rule 20:18 - Doing what God does: image as noun and verb—reflecting and enacting God's character 21:55 - The importance of language: naming and imitating God's creative acts 22:56 - The impact of the fall: losing the image and glory, and the rupture in relationships 24:34 - The shift from image as noun to image as verb: imaging the serpent's wisdom 27:17 - Psalm 8: Humanity crowned with glory when fulfilling divine purposes 29:49 - Romans 1 and 3: Exchanging God's glory for images of creation, resulting in dehumanization and corruption 32:34 - The fall and the wave of idolatry: suffering in bodies and communities 35:09 - Jesus as the perfect human: revealing the true image of God 37:42 - Christ's image as the ultimate image bearer: revealing God's character fully 40:50 - The power of the Gospel: recovering the image and glorifying God in our restored humanity 44:13 - Salvation as the recovery of true humanity, not escape from bodies 45:39 - Practical implications: recovering sexuality, emotion, and purpose in God's image 47:37 - Jesus' ministry as the full embodiment of human image-verbing 50:11 - Community and shame: reclaiming sacredness and dignity 52:30 - The challenges of shame and the path towards wholeness in Christ 55:26 - The importance of seeing ourselves as image bearers: our identity and calling 56:33 - Systems of dehumanization and the collapsing of societal structures 58:29 - Celebrating community and the gift of joyful service in God's image

Parental alienation is a legal emergency, not just heartbreak — and family court is too slow to stop it on its own. Here's how fathers move from venting to evidence with a court-focused, 6-category documentation framework.When a parent starts canceling visits, blocking school and medical access, or quietly rewriting a child's story, the damage becomes "normal" long before a judge ever hears the case. In this briefing we treat alienation as both an emotional crisis and a legal one, and we unpack a real-time split in family law: New Hampshire's HB 1323, which would define parental alienation in statute and force a ruling within 60 days (with remedies like makeup parenting time, custody changes, and attorney's fees), versus Canada's Bill C-223, which would move to ban alienation claims and reunification therapy. We cover the narratives behind both, the peer-reviewed research on long-term harm to kids, and why the data does not support the "junk science" label. Then we bring it home to what you can do this week: a practical documentation system that proves patterns, defends against false claims, and demonstrates your own fitness and flexibility as a dad.In this episode: why speed is alienation's weapon · HB 1323's 60-day rule and its remedies · Bill C-223 and the counter-narrative · what the research really says · the 6-category evidence framework.

Parental leave is back in the news again, with National promising to increase the number of weeks that people can take off, paid, when they have a baby. But some employers are already offering a lot more than the minimum. Money correspondent Susan Edmunds has been looking into it and spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.

Four relatives gathered for a quiet family lunch—but within days, three were dead and one was fighting for his life. At the center of it all was a homemade beef Wellington, a lethal dose of death cap mushrooms, and a host who walked away untouched. What followed was a trail of hidden evidence, shifting stories, and one of Australia's most shocking murder trials.

When Unmarried Couples Split Up Episode 392 – What happens when unmarried couples split up? Sometimes it can be even more complicated and unpleasant than a divorce. As with many things, it's probably better to prepare in advance. More SML Planning Minute Podcast Episodes Transcript of Podcast Episode 392 Hello, this is Bill Rainaldi, with another edition of Security Mutual's SML Planning Minute. In today's episode: what happens when unmarried couples split up? We've had a couple of episodes over the last few years talking about some of the financial complications that come with divorce. But what happens when an unmarried, but financially-linked, couple splits up? Sometimes it can be even more complicated and unpleasant than a divorce. According to the National Center for Family & Marriage Research, the number of people living together without being legally married has grown to over 20 million, up from 14 million in 2019.[1] And while most people seem to make their best efforts, things don't always work out. When things go downhill, it's not just financial accounts that can get messy. It's personal property, pets, and sometimes child custody or child support issues. When couples get divorced, the rules are generally dictated by state law. This is not always true for a couple that has never legally married.[2] In most cases, there is no automatic legal framework. Without a clearly defined set of legislative principles, some people end up being treated more like roommates and less like spouses. When you're not legally married, there's usually no formal process like there is with a divorce. And in most states, there is no spousal support such as alimony, although “palimony”—compensation paid by one member of an unmarried couple to the other after they separate—might be available if there’s “an express or implied contract.”[3] Keep in mind that laws vary widely from state to state. If you’re going through something like this, you will likely need the help of a local family law attorney. Financial considerations can become tricky when an unmarried couple splits up. For example, what happens when you buy a house together, but only one of you ends up on the deed? Despite any informal side agreements, the person whose name is on the deed is in a much stronger position. If both names are on the deed, the presumed split is generally 50-50.[4] Conflict can also arise when one partner may have contributed more financially, such as with the down payment, or may have contributed more time and effort maintaining or fixing up the house. All of this may come up when the house is sold. Sometimes, rather than selling the house to a third party, the two parties will try to work out some sort of negotiated buyout, assuming one of the two wishes to stay.[5] Personal property, such as furniture and sentimental items, can be another sticking point. One proactive financial strategy is to maintain the best records you can on who paid for what. It may come in handy if there's a disagreement later.[6] Some experts also suggest using what’s called a “cohabitation agreement.” A cohabitation agreement is a document, designed by an attorney, for unmarried couples who either live together or plan to do so. It generally covers things like property ownership, expense sharing, and rights to financial support from each other. It can be similar to a prenuptial agreement.[7] A cohabitation agreement generally covers things like asset ownership, debt and bill payment responsibilities, and financial support. It could also cover pets, which can be an emotionally charged issue, as well as estate planning arrangements.[8] What if you're in what is known as a “common law marriage?” A common law marriage occurs when two people are considered legally married, even though they haven't participated in a lawful marriage ceremony or gotten a marriage license. This generally occurs in certain states when a couple lives together for a specific period of time and holds themselves out as intending to be married, or as already married.[9] The rules vary considerably based on where you live, but in some states, a common law marriage can be subject to the same marriage and divorce laws as a regular married couple. As with a divorce, things get much more complicated—and serious—when children are involved. Don’t assume that custody will automatically be 50/50. Parental rights are often decided separately from financial issues. And just like in a divorce, a court will tend to focus on the best interest of the child.[10] Finally, experts recommend that when you actually do complete your breakup, make sure you cover all the bases. That means separating your accounts, changing passwords, and keeping everything documented.[11] It's also important to review and manage beneficiaries that may have been designated when you were together. The old adage is certainly true: love is blind. But when you build a financial life without marriage, while it may not sound romantic, it might be beneficial to treat things more like a business partnership, which in some ways it can be. A little more preparation and caution today could prevent a ton of headaches later. No one really expects their new or current relationship to fail. When it does, the healing process is difficult enough. It’ll be worse if you don't plan accordingly.

Planning for retirement can feel overwhelming, especially as you approach the transition from earning a paycheck to relying on your savings. The early phase of retirement brings unique challenges, and it's no surprise that there are plenty of misconceptions that can lead you astray. In this episode, we break down five of the most prevalent retirement myths, share insights from working with clients, and offer practical guidance to help you make confident, personalized decisions for your future.   1. "I'll Spend Less In Retirement Than When I Was Working"   This is one of the most widespread assumptions—and financial media often reinforces it by suggesting you'll only need 70-80% of your pre-retirement income. However, the reality is often quite different. In early retirement, spending typically increases as retirees suddenly have more time for activities, hobbies, and travel that were perhaps squeezed out during their working years. Parental obligations can linger, with adult children sometimes relying on financial assistance well into their late twenties or thirties. Unexpected repairs, long-postponed home improvements, or even a burst of "retirement honeymoon" spending are common. Recognizing these patterns, and planning for them, can help set more realistic expectations for your retirement budget.   2. "I Don't Have Time to Recover from a Market Downturn Anymore"   It's natural to become risk-averse as retirement nears; no one wants to see years of savings diminished by a bear market. Today's retirees are living longer than previous generations—often enjoying 25, 30, or even 35 years in retirement. This expanded timeline means you still have the potential (and perhaps the need) to ride out stock market fluctuations and recover from downturns. Avoiding growth assets altogether in favor of perceived "safety" may actually represent a different kind of risk: the erosion of purchasing power due to inflation.   3. "I'll Only Spend Interest and Never Touch My Principal"   This "live-off-the-interest" approach may have worked in an era of higher interest rates, but it's limiting in today's environment. We advocate for a total-return strategy: you draw from a mix of interest, dividends, and capital gains as appropriate. This helps maximize your spending potential and accounts for variable needs and market fluctuations. Clinging to the old mindset of never spending principal may feel safer, but it can artificially constrain your quality of life and generosity toward loved ones or causes you care about.    4. "I Shouldn't Retire Before 65 Because of Health Insurance"   Many people believe they must keep working until Medicare eligibility at 65 due to concerns about the high cost and complexity of health insurance. While the Affordable Care Act and COBRA have shifted the landscape, these options are often misunderstood or overlooked. Model retirement scenarios and run cost estimators to see if pre-65 retirement is out of reach or if it might be achievable—perhaps with an added planned expense for private insurance or by using available subsidies. Make decisions based on personalized numbers, not generalizations or fear. Sometimes, paying for private health insurance can be a worthwhile trade-off for earlier retirement and the memories made with family and friends.   5. "I Don't Need to Worry About Long-Term Care—I'll Just Stay in My Home"   It's tempting to imagine that aging in place solves long-term care needs, but the reality is that nearly 80% of retirees require some form of long-term care eventually. Whether it's in-home assistance or moving to a residential community, the costs are significant—often $80,000 per year or more, and potentially much higher for round-the-clock or specialized care. Failing to plan for these expenses may burden loved ones and potentially result in less-than-desired care options. Medicaid is not a reliable fallback for most financially secure retirees.   Outline of This Episode   01:53 Why early retirement often brings increased spending  05:26 Rethinking life expectancy reality 06:44 Discussing financial planning strategies 09:25 Misconception about living off interest 13:22 Financial plan modeling: test scenarios to see if earlier retirement is feasible 17:13 Importance of clarifying care intentions before a crisis arises     Resources & People Mentioned   7 Common Misconceptions about Retirement Planning | CCRRBC Inheritocracy by Eliza Filby About the Affordable Care Act | HHS.gov Medicare Finances: A Perspective on the 2026 Trustees Report

Parental alienation isn't just a buzzword. It's a real problem that can completely change the dynamics of a family going through divorce. Family law attorney and divorce mediator Adam Little discusses what parental alienation looks like, why it can be so difficult for courts to distinguish from ordinary family conflict, and what can happen when allegations get out of hand. Together, they examine the warning signs attorneys and parents should recognize, the role of expert witnesses and child advocates, and the evidence that can strengthen or undermine a case. Their conversation explores the legal, emotional, and practical realities behind these high-stakes custody disputes, along with the difficult decisions courts face when a child's best interests are at stake.

They Missed Everything.Content note: This is the tough one I mentioned. With the brutal flowers.Look, first of all… This is not the beginning of a poor-me story.This is a story of how I found moments of joy… and darkness… in my autistic life. Like Leonard Cohen sang in Suzanne, “among the garbage and the flowers.”But I found dark humor... every where.1972 was a hell of a summer… Room 1I first sought a diagnosis at 19. Following suicide attempt #1.I was driving after dark. Which I wasn't supposed to do… new family rule.See, I'd damaged our car the week before, making a hasty turn into our driveway near Jumping Deer Road in Katonah. Hit the damn stone wall on the way in.This was Westchester County, NY. Local code only allowed a nano break between the 18th-Century stones guarding our yard. Colonial heritage or something… masking slave labor.I'm in the doghouse. With parents already skeptical about letting me go to college. Not “mature” enough.Yet, when the hood and fender are finally fixed? They drop me off on a muggy, hazy June night. Out in the boonies at the old Amawak Service Center on Route 202.“Pick it up and bring it home. No side stops.” Then they instruct me, “Be… careful.” Rolling their collective 4 eyes.I pull out, then wait. The light's gotta change at the 4-lane intersection with Route 35 before I can head home.The light turns green. I go into a weird space in my head. There's… there's some reason I shouldn't turn left… yet… But I watch myself shrug, flick my signal switch, and turn. Right into two lanes of accelerating traffic coming right at me.Don't remember much more. Just the red, don't-turn-yet-idiot arrow. Staring at me brightly… through the windshield that used to be there.I survived. That classic, white 1965 Mustang… didn't. Barely street legal, 271-horse V8 under the hood. Maybe the most collectible American car of all time.A hand-me-down gift to our family from my father's father. Who bragged, “I had to jew the dealer down from 5 grand,” back when he bought it new in '65. A lot of money then.Um, things got tense at home.“You are responsible for your own actions. You are the cause here.”Parental meeting time.“Uh, I don't know what happened.” I couldn't stand these “meetings.” So many in my childhood. This was maybe the worst of all.“I don't know. It… it... just happened.”Making my parents even more furious. These were avid Ayn Rand readers. And my grandfather? He slept beside an orderly nightstand. Mein Kampf tucked tightly in its tidy drawer. My dead father's voice echoes coldly in my mind still. “You are responsible for your own actions. You are the cause here.” But, I stumble on. Making things worse… in my way.“Something's wrong. I don't know what. I'm having horrible visions. Hitting people with the car as I drive by. Hitting their bodies… bones…” I trail off. Into stony silence, I say, “And now something weird happened. I think… I think… maybe I should see a doctor…”Next thing I know, I'm sitting in front of a Westchester County caseworker. Cuz my parents felt a psychologist or private therapist cost too much.I had no idea what I was feeling… much less why.The intake experience was horrific.I felt… badgered.She called it… delicately. “Maybe the accident looked like an attempt to… maybe… harm yourself?” But she continued with a sledgehammer.“I know you have a secret you want to tell me.” Rinse, repeat… Rinse, repeat…I wanted so badly to please her. But had no idea what I was feeling… much less why.Worse yet? There were things I didn't want to tell her. Darker than the physical or sexual abuse she was probably check-listing. Things a traumatized kid might do… himself.I never went back. I told my parents I was uncomfortable talking to her.My dad rocked back in his dark, maple, Early American dining room chair. “Fine. That's your choice.”He paused. Looking directly at my mother as he said to me, “I can see you won't speak to this counselor. I see no reason to look for another for you to talk to. Your decision.”And that was that.We were all dying for freedom.Finally at 63, a psychologist specializing in autism gave me another name, Alexithymia.He said a lot of autistics can know something is wrong. But not know what. And baptized me, Autism Spectrum Disorder… with a side of ADHD.2016 was a good year. A damn fine year.But 1972 was a summer from hell.The last US troops shipped home, fleeing Viet Nam. Palestinians massacred Israelis at the Olympics. My father died that August. The week after he molested me for the last time.We were all dying for freedom.[music]Cuz… if you don't know us… how ya gonna love us.InterludeOkay. Here's the last frag I toss… today. Let's end with joyful moments. Among the dark. Let's end with survival.See, I'm giving you these fragments of my life…Cuz… if you don't know us… how ya gonna love us.And this is part of me, too…[music]I Don't Think I Had a “Personality” as a KidI was busy finding Infinity in a burnt-off ant leg…This one brings home the stakes.The moments of joy along the way… that drew a line under what could have been. Not if they fixed me. But maybe what all of our children could be.If we just listen to them. And support what they say they need.“What are you doing…?”My mother's voice was sharp.I'm lying spreadeagled on the backyard grass, face down.“I've called you three times.” Annoyed. “WHAT are you doing…?”I don't know it in Second Grade… But I have difficulties shifting attention when I'm lost in thought…I try to focus my ears…Then think back,review my short-term memory,and replay the last few moments.Trying to hear and translate anything she might have said while I'm in my private thought bubble…Already at 7, this process of “rehearsing” or “rewinding the tape” to interpret what's going on? It's an automatic, constant routine when I'm around… well, people.Checking for verbal mistakes, missed cues… Just trying to understand, what's going on…?So I'm still trying to sort it out,choose words carefully to explain,clearing my throat,moving my sleeping tongue,loosening my jaw,getting ready to speak…“HEY! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!”“Umm… Nothing…?” Close as I come to a lie at that age.I've been lying in the grass for an hour or so, exploring with my new magnifying glass.See, there was this great hobby shop in Johnson City. It had all kinds of cool science “toys.” And I had saved my 50-cent allowance for weeks to buy a “Real, hand-held, magnifying glass  —  made with ALL-METAL handle!!”I was entranced.Examining grass leaves, dew drops, and…Ants.Dozens of ants. One after another.Legs.Antennae.Mandibles.Eyes.Guiltily burning off the occasional leg with focused sunlight…Endless fascination…I was in the flow…“Okay. Whatever you are doing…” I wait for the command I know will end my timeless bliss… “Stop doing it. It's time for lunch.”I sigh. Roll over.And. Trudge. In.Hardly sounds like abuse, right…..??Imagine that last, delicious dream you're enjoying as you drowse in a warm snuggly bed… when you don't have to get up…My autistic joys are hard to explain to another person.Pretty much ANY non-autistic person.And trying to… drags me into Deep Philosophical Waters…Imagine that last, delicious dream you're enjoying as you drowse in a warm snuggly bed on a lazy Saturday morning when you don't have to get up…And someone screams, “GET UP!”Eyes pop open. Instantly. You're so startled, for a minute… you have no idea where you are, what you're doing, the time of day, the season…Now… imagine that… if you can…Every. Damn. Day. Many, many, MANY times a day… Every single day of your childhood.Torture.Being startled out of the flow? It's like that.Capisce? Ya dig? Feel me?That's as close as I can think of to explain my moments of autistic flow.Or, better yet, my autistic joys.That same joy you seeon an autistic kid's faceas he dances endlesslyin a sprinkler in the sun…If I had to guess, this is precisely what Being in the Moment, in the Now, maybe even Zen Satori…Mean.Gradually as I aged, these blissful moments became fewer and fewer…Now, that's all preamble to what I really wanna talk about…Here's the deal on Flow…I think that's where I spent most of my time as a young kid.When I wasn't interacting with family, a few schoolmates, parents, one teacher a year… the few humans I let into my life back then.And that time alone… Endlessly exploring, learning, feeling, being… was…Wordless delight.Gradually as I aged, these blissful moments became fewer and fewer… further and further and further apart… nearly gone…First, I was forced into a school system… That I was clearly not wired for.Rigid.Lockstep.Regimented.Regulated.BORING.No Free Time.To simply… explore.Later, of course, it got MUCH worse. Jobs, relationships, finances… Life in Modern Adult America.Like when I founded Unix World magazine. I was so high on the concept and the joy of process… My inner vision won us awards our first year. Western Publishing Association Best New Publication and Best Issue. Beating out Macworld and PC World.Yeah. We won awards. A couple months after I was fired from my own mag. Fired because… in my autistic mind… the game was Create the Most Amazing Publication… Ever.But the whole time, the world was shouting that it was Make the Most Money You Can… Right Now.Snake eyes. I lost.My natural state, left alone to my own devices? Wandering from moment to moment of… fascination.Now, I have some personal speculation to get off my chest.First… I don't think I had a native personality when I was a kid…At least not as bell-curve average humans understand a personality.My natural state, left alone to my own devices? Wandering from moment to moment of fascination. No motivations. No intentions. No (verbal) thought…So… I was either happy exploring in the fields… or with my chemistry set in the basement… or catching polliwogs in Spring pools…Or I was forced to don my “personality.”In other words,the language,facial expressions,body language,polite responses,social lies,and predictable actionsthat humans think of as “personality”…and that social contact demands.Which is so natural for most humans, they aren't even aware of it.Even though they must have it from me… to feel safe.But, for me, “personality” was likebeing dragged out of my comfy pajamas,forced intothe worst, most cumbersome, restrictive, awkward, embarrassing winter coat,ear muffs,muffler,heavy snow boots,and mittensyour mother ever stuffed you intoto shove you onto that bus to kindergarten…And “personality” still is suffocating. Today. In my 70s. Ten years after diagnosed as autistic and ADHD.Especially, “fun times”… They're the real killers.Parties.Intimate conversations…Shudder... Family holidays? So nightmarish, I wrote the 7-page narrative poem sneaking my mother's creepy g-d on high.These are all times I must adopt my “personality.” You know, to survive. No matter how much “fun” they're supposed to be.What pros call “masking”? Really nothing more than exhausting habits of behavior & speech. That I must shroud myself in. Like an embalmed mummy. Just so it's easy for other humans… to feel “comfortable” around me.Not an essential Self. Just, ya know, “personality.”Certainly not me. Nothing comfortable about it.I'm going to hazard a guess.Which may be narcissistic delusion… Flow seems awfully close to what the Buddha described as experiencing “no-self” vs. the “conditioned mind.”From at least age 2 on, I clearly remember lucid dreaming and long periods of time spent without verbal thought of any kind. Just perceiving, in awe and wonder…EVERYTHING.Until I had to interact with humans. Any humans. Even those I was required… to “love.”And donning the “personality”? The joy collapsed. Fast as a quantum waveform when you try to measure it. Not into pain…Collapsing into an all-absorbing effort.Intellectualizing every word,gesture,tone of voice of my own…Then interpreting all those of each and every human I was with at the time…and THEN determining precisely the right word,tone of voice,facial expression,and body attitude to project back…all at the same timeTo avoid being in trouble.Because I was… Bad.And I had to protect everyone around me from that.Every. Single. Second…And even at a young age, a growing sense of the need to protect others…From me.Because I was different. Because I hurt people without understanding. Because I acted as if I were “arrogant”… etc., etc.Like two divorces. Cuz I could be amazing for 3 to 6 months. Caring. Fun as hell. Then fall into deep depressions and work burnouts. Cuz I couldn't handle that much intimacy. Hell, that much time alone with another human…Because I was… Bad.And I had to protect everyone around me from that.Every. Single. Second… That I am with another human.Except very young children. And of course, animals… Since I was… 4 years old.Now since diagnosis, I found a few tricks.In 2019 when I first started writing about my autism, I was all about lists. Trying to “help” others. Took me a year or two to realize we are… every one of us autists… different. Different lives. Different needs and goals. Different survival skills.So I'm only an “expert” on my own life. Even if I am the only expert on that there is.Your mileage certainly will vary.But for me? My autistic life is not about “getting better.” Or fixing me. It's about knowing who I truly am. And what I truly need. Doing what I can to meet those needs.Then being… me.So I moved to the Country…Living in the trailer across the courtyardFrom my third, loving wifeWhere I can reduce sensory overload.Reduce the number of humans I talk with To only folks I feel comfortable around.And stopped failing at jobs I was never built to do.But I… now… can pursue those things that have brought me joy since childhood.Spending unstructured, unmeasured time on any of my passions…walking in the wildest Nature I have access to,baking bread,fermenting pickles,gardening,deep-focus while replaying a favorite movie… that seventh time,illustrating,writing,playing music,researching world events….so, so many others.When I pursue a “special interest”… alone? Sometimes it's nearly orgasmic… In fact, I've redefined my understanding of my passions.They're not a forbidden pleasure. A shameful quirk. Something I “waste time on” when there's nothing more important to do.They are my gateway to Bliss, Satori, Oneness… Maybe even whatever God is… or Isn't…I'm not talking toxic positivity. My autistic joys aren't some advanced spiritual state I've achieved in my 70s. And now, suddenly… I'm here to tell you how to make everything okay. And talk you into buying your 5th NEW self-help system on the way out the door.But my joys are moments of love and happiness sprinkled through most of my days. Between meltdowns and burnouts. And some average life.They are my reason for Being.There are just NOT 7 Easy Things that Successful Autistics Do…That Will Change My Life Forever.There's just living complex… and in the end… wild autistic life.being old & autistic ain't so bad.losing inhibitions.some of which protected me from…Life.freedom turns out to be pain…and joy…in superposition.until maybe they annihilate you.Notes from the bardobefore the bardoI learned a lot that Spring afternoon on the lawn in Johnson City.I saw Infinity in a burnt-off ant leg.And, eventually… I went for it.[music]OutroNow you know.

PXY Mornings w/ Moose and Breezy! 7AM Hour: The ultimate either or for a family. This man has to decided between moving away from his family for his dream job or staying with his wife and kid for the time with his family.

In this episode, I unpack four healthy ways parents use their authority in family life. We look at how authority isn't meant for control or convenience, but for setting values, creating expectations, teaching and training children, and putting structures in place that help them grow in wisdom and character. When we have a right understanding of authority and how it is used in our family, parents can give their children the direction they need without sacrificing the relationship.   Heart-focused Parenting Action Step Take a few minutes this week to reflect on what you believe about parental authority and ask whether the way you use it is helping your child grow with dignity, wisdom and responsibility.

Most of us spend years trying to figure out money - what to do with it, how to invest it, how to make it work harder. But imagine if someone had taught you the fundamentals when you were a child.   Because here's what I've seen over the years - the families who build lasting generational wealth don't just accumulate assets. They pass on the mindset, the habits, and the financial literacy that lets the next generation take it even further.   So what if we could give our kids that advantage? What if we could raise children who grow up genuinely confident about money, investing, and building wealth - instead of spending their adult years trying to unlearn bad money habits?   And don't worry if you don't have children yet or are not planning to have children. There'll be lots in today's show to help you with your money habits.   My guest today - Sarah Megginson is one of Australia's most recognised personal finance experts, with over 20 years of experience in property, finance and investment journalism.  Her new book is called "How to Raise Rich Kids: Build Lasting Wealth for Your Children" - and it's a genuinely practical guide for any parent who wants to get this right, whether they feel totally on top of their own finances or are still working it out themselves.   In this episode I'm speaking with Sarah Megginson about raising financially confident kids and why money habits start earlier than most parents realise.   We unpack how children absorb money attitudes from home, and why your own behaviour shapes their financial future.   We discuss practical ways to teach budgeting, saving, and decision-making through everyday moments like shopping and family conversations.   We also look at how digital money, credit, and buy now, pay later can confuse young people without proper guidance.   Finally, we explore why the real legacy is not just wealth, but financial intelligence, confidence, and family values.   Takeaways   • Early money lessons at home shape children's habits long before adulthood. • Open conversations about money reduce fear and build financial confidence. • Children learn budgeting faster when they help compare real prices. • Digital spending removes friction, making impulse purchases easier to justify. • Buy now, pay later can hide debt from young people's awareness. • Parental stress around money often becomes children's emotional money blueprint. • Passing on financial intelligence matters more than handing over assets. • Involving kids in decisions builds responsibility and long-term confidence. • Reframing "we can't afford that" teaches values, not scarcity. • Regular family money talks help prevent silence, shame, and poor financial choices.   Links and Resources:   Answer this week's trivia question here - https://www.propertytrivia.com.au/ •        Win a hard copy of Negotiate Influence Persuade. •        Everyone wins a copy of a fully updated property report – What's ahead for property for 2026 and beyond.   Michael Yardney – Subscribe to my Property Update newsletter here     Sarah Megginson's Book How to Raise Rich Kids -  https://www.amazon.com.au/How-Raise-Rich-Kids-Children/dp/1923390244   Get a bundle of eBooks and Reports at: www.PodcastBonus.com.au      Get the team at Metropole to create a Strategic Property plan for your needs.
