Grief and resilience are two of life's hardest teachers — and in this episode, Mohan Ranga Rao shares how he transformed unimaginable personal tragedy into insight, spiritual growth, and healing.Through the story of his blind daughter and her battle with cancer, Mohan explores how we can find meaning in suffering, develop emotional strength, and reframe grief not as an end but as a sacred passage. Drawing from Eastern philosophy on suffering, Mohan explains the roles of karma and dharma, the difference between pain and suffering, and how gratitude, compassion, and resilience are cultivated through hardship.If you're seeking answers to:Why bad things happen to good peopleHow to cope with devastating lossWhat it means to live a life with purpose after tragedyHow spiritual insights can help you heal…this conversation will give you more than comfort — it will offer you tools. Mohan's memoir Myopia: A Father's Journey into Love, Loss and Insight Beyond Vision delivers a raw, profound look into healing from loss and embracing the present with spiritual awareness.He speaks to those who feel broken, overwhelmed, or lost — and shows that through surrender and self-inquiry, it's possible to experience post-traumatic growth, clarity, and even joy.This episode is for you if you're trying to:Make sense of painful experiencesNavigate complex emotionsRebuild your life after lossUnderstand the spiritual side of parenting through adversity0:00 – Introduction to Mohan Ranga Rao1:20 – The story behind Myopia3:00 – Lessons from Mohan's daughter6:15 – The spiritual power of gratitude and compassion9:30 – Why Western cultures struggle with suffering11:40 – The difference between pain and suffering14:10 – Understanding karma and dharma17:05 – Non-doership and divine inspiration20:30 – What it means to truly heal from grief23:00 – Where to find the book + connect with MohanTo check out Mohan's book, "Myopia: A Father's Journey into Love, Loss, and Sight Beyond Vision", visit: https://a.co/d/723m9oGTo check out the YouTube (video podcast), visit: https://www.youtube.com/@drchrisloomdphdDisclaimer: Not advice.

Send us a textIf you've ever felt like you have to tone yourself down, stay quiet, or be "easier to love" in order to keep people around—you're not alone. But here's the hard truth: shrinking yourself doesn't protect you. It actually attracts the wrong people—the ones who only connect with the edited, filtered version of you.In this powerful episode, we unpack the deep emotional patterns behind people-pleasing, codependency, and chronic self-abandonment. You'll learn why hiding your true self creates unhealthy relationships, and how stepping into your authenticity changes everything—from who you attract to how you feel in your own skin.Whether you're healing from emotional abuse, recovering from a toxic relationship, or simply tired of not being fully seen, this conversation will help you understand the subconscious programming behind it all—and how to start rewriting it.We'll also talk about:Why your nervous system confuses shrinking with safetyHow childhood wounds and trauma responses shape your need for validationThe reason you keep attracting emotionally unavailable or misaligned peopleHow to reclaim your power, your voice, and your self-worth
We're drowning in noise. 91% of online content now uses aggressive, force-based marketing—and it's not just annoying, it's ineffective.In this episode, I share a deeply personal reflection on what it means to lead with presence instead of pressure, why embodiment always wins over attention-seeking, and how the most trusted brands are the ones that show up consistently, calmly, and clearly.If you've ever felt pressured to scream louder, be everywhere, or compete with the chaos online, this episode will give you permission—and a proven path—to show up differently.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeWhy yelling (force-based marketing) actually repels the right peopleHow your presence builds more trust than any tactic ever couldThe personal cost of chasing attention—and how to break free from itA 3-part framework for presence-based leadershipHow to become a “lighthouse brand” that attracts aligned clientsWhy trust—not attention—is the new currency of growthKey Takeaways✔️People don't follow the loudest voice—they follow the one that makes them feel safest.✔️Aggressive marketing reduces customer trust by 76%.✔️Force reveals doubt; embodiment reveals leadership.✔️Presence > pressure. Your consistency and energy are what create real connection.✔️Your beliefs should speak for themselves. Show, don't shout.✔️You attract better clients when you stop yelling and start aligning.✔️Lighthouse leadership is about consistency, clarity, and calm—it doesn't need to move or yell to be effective.Timestamps[00:00] – The real problem with online yelling and aggressive marketing[03:00] – Why true leadership isn't loud, it's consistent[05:00] – George's past: yelling, forcing, and learning the hard way[08:00] – The hidden costs of “force-based” marketing[10:00] – The burnout loop: attention-chasing vs. trust-building[12:00] – The 3-part framework: calm, belief, consistency[13:00] – Calm in the chaos: how safety converts better than volume[15:00] – Letting your beliefs speak for themselves[17:00] – Why the right people will find you when you're aligned[19:00] – Personal examples from clients who embodied this shift[20:00] – The attention battlefield is a losing game—trust wins[21:00] – Final reflections: be the lighthouse, not the megaphoneChoose Your Next Steps:Audit your content: where are you forcing instead of connecting?Choose one area where you can dial back volume and increase consistency.Practice calm, embodied leadership—even when the world yells.DM me or tag me on Instagram @itsgeorgebryant with your biggest reframe from this episode.Work With Me or Join the AllianceIf you're ready to lead with presence, build trust at scale, and create a business that feels like home…Apply for 1:1 coaching or join the Relationship Beats Algorithms Alliance.Want to learn this in person?

Interference in democratic elections. The sponsorship of extremist politics to destabilise Europe. In recent years, Vladimir Putin has waged a relentless campaign to expand his influence beyond Russia's borders and to undermine Western democracy. But how did he come to have such control over Russia – and what is it that he really wants? In March 2025 Catherine Belton, acclaimed journalist and author of the bestselling book Putin's People: How the KGB Took Back Russia and Then Took on the West joined us live from Kyiv for this installment of our series, The Age of the Strongman. Drawing on years of investigative reporting, Belton revealed how Putin's rise was orchestrated by a network of former KGB officers and oligarchs who used economic power, fear and corruption to install him in the Kremlin. She explored how this model of governance and ‘strongman leadership' has been exported globally and what the consequences continue to be for us all.

Distant. Divided. Dysfunctional. Devour. Devastation. Honor is due. Love is the greatest commandment. Forgiveness is a given. Trust can be eroded or earned. Proverbs 25:28 Like a city whose walls are broken through is a person who lacks self-control. Boundaries are beneficial. Boundaries help prevent the bad, and promote the good. Two types of people you don't want to become in regards to boundaries: 1. Those whose walls are broken. 2. Those who build walls with no gates. Two reasons you need boundaries to prevent the bad: 1. Your Heart Jeremiah 17:9a The heart is deceitful above all things 2. The Foolishness of People Proverbs 10:23 A fool finds pleasure in wicked schemes, but a person of understanding delights in wisdom. Proverbs 13:16 All who are prudent act with knowledge, but fools expose their folly. Proverbs 14:8 The wisdom of the prudent is to give thought to their ways, but the folly of fools is deception. Proverbs 18:2 Fools find no pleasure in understanding but delight in airing their own opinions. Proverbs 28:26 Those who trust in themselves are fools, but those who walk in wisdom are kept safe. Two reasons you need boundaries to promote the good: 1. Your Healing James 5:16 Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous person is powerful and effective. 2. The Wisdom of People How should I set boundaries in relationships? Ask yourself these questions to help you set boundaries: Identity - Who am I? Responsibility - What am I responsible for? Specificity

An explosive conversation with Russian boxing legend Victor Oganov on navigating politics, societal pressures, and staying true to oneself. 1×0:00-1:28:16Audio playback is not supported on your browser. Please upgrade. How does one navigate a world divided by power, ideology, and culture? In this fantastic episode of the Rational Grounds Podcast, I sit down with Russian boxing legend Victor Oganov to explore the battlefields outside the ring. We dive deep into the contrasts between Russia and the West, shedding light on Vladimir Putin's enigmatic leadership and the challenges of global geopolitics. Victor offers rare insights into life under sanctions, the resilience of the Russian people, and the cultural dynamics that shape their unwavering loyalty. We also discuss Australia's social fabric, examining issues of racism, assimilation, and the immigrant experience through Victor's sharp lens. Throughout this conversation, we tackle hard-hitting questions: What drives societal decay in modern democracies? How does religion evolve as a cultural cornerstone amidst growing secularism? Why do certain governments, whether in Russia, the West, or elsewhere, aim to suppress individual freedom in favour of compliance? This episode isn't just about politics—it's about the human spirit, identity, and the power dynamics that define our world. Whether you're fascinated by geopolitics, boxing, or stories of resilience, this discussion with Victor Oganov will leave you questioning the narratives you've been told.

In the Gospel of Luke, Joseph and a very pregnant Mary travel to Bethlehem because Caesar Augustus has ordered a census of the entire Roman Empire. But does Jesus's birth story in Luke align with what we know about censuses in the ancient world? How were people counted? Who conducted these censuses? And did people really need to travel back to their ancestral homes to register with Rome? For this special holiday episode, Helen and Dave are joined by Andrew Whitby, a data scientist and author of The Sum of the People: How the Census Has Shaped Nations from the Ancient World to the Modern Age.

Ever wonder what truly makes a great leadership team tick? Kristen shares insights from her recent team coaching certification program and breaks down the research-backed conditions that create outstanding teams. Drawing from Ruth Wageman and Richard Hackman's work on senior leadership teams, Mike and Kristen explore how the setup of a team accounts for 60% of its eventual success - far more than what happens once the team is already working together. Through analogies to orchestras and kitchens, they unpack what makes teams truly interdependent and how leaders can create the right conditions for their teams to thrive.Highlights:The definition of a real team and why reporting structures alone don't make a teamThe four types of teams: informational, consultative, coordinating, and decision-makingWhy less than 7% of teams actually agree on who is part of the teamThe three essential conditions for team effectiveness: a real team, clear purpose, and right peopleHow empathy and integrity are the two most important predictors of leadership team successKey behaviors to watch for when selecting (or removing) team membersWhy team norms and clear behavioral expectations matter more than values statementsThe importance of having the right team size and support systems in placeLinks & Resources Mentioned:Senior Leadership Teams by Ruth Wageman, Debra A.

It's your relationship with the beloved, that the homeless person, your partner, even your self, is a manifestation of that which is love. Then, service is transformed. It's an act of joy, not a responsibility.” – RamDevSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
The Fourteenth Amendment. Of all the amendments to the U.S. Constitution, the 14th is a big one. It's shaped all of our lives, whether we realize it or not: Roe v. Wade, Brown v. Board of Education, Bush v. Gore, plus other Supreme Court cases that legalized same-sex marriage, interracial marriage, access to birth control — they've all been built on the back of the 14th. The amendment was ratified after the Civil War, and it's packed full of lofty phrases like due process, equal protection, and liberty. But what do those words really guarantee us? Today on Throughline's We the People: How the 14th Amendment has remade America — and how America has remade the 14th (Originally ran as The Fourteenth Amendment).Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
The Sixth Amendment. Most of us take it for granted that if we're ever in court and we can't afford a lawyer, the court will provide one for us. And in fact, the right to an attorney is written into the Constitution's sixth amendment. But for most of U.S. history, it was more of a nice-to-have — something you got if you could, but that many people went without. Today, though, public defenders represent up to 80% of people charged with crimes. So what changed? Today on Throughline's We the People: How public defenders became the backbone of our criminal legal system, and what might need to change for them to truly serve everyone.

The Second Amendment. In April 1938, an Oklahoma bank robber was arrested for carrying an unregistered sawed-off shotgun across state lines. The robber, Jack Miller, put forward a novel defense: that a law banning him from carrying that gun violated his Second Amendment rights. For most of U.S. history, the Second Amendment was one of the sleepier ones. It rarely showed up in court, and was almost never used to challenge laws. Jack Miller's case changed that. And it set off a chain of events that would fundamentally change how U.S. law deals with guns. Today on Throughline's We the People: How the second amendment came out of the shadows.
