Had to talk about this today because too many people are stuck. Sitting in sadness like it's permanent. Like there's nothing they can do about it. Listen up. There's a massive difference between sadness and grief. Grief is real. When you lose someone. When something's actually gone forever. You process that. You feel it. You honor it. That's necessary. But sadness. That's different. Sadness is a perceived lack of options. Key word. Perceived. You got knocked down. Job loss. Relationship ended. Business failed. Whatever it is. You're sitting there thinking there's nothing you can do. That's bullshit. You have options. You just can't see them right now. The moment you ask yourself "What can I do about this" everything changes. Not "woe is me what can I do." But actually. What are my options here. Stop playing victim to your circumstances. Start looking for your options. They're there. You just have to be willing to see them.Connect:Connect with Rick: https://linktr.ee/mrrickjordanSubscribe & Review to ALL IN with Rick Jordan on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/RickJordanALLIN

In this episode of The Criminologist Podcast, host Joseph Arvidson is joined by Shawn Trusten and Phil Galli, co-creators of the Core 4 Survey and Intervention, an innovative framework that breaks down social support into four key domains: Instrumental, Expressive, Perceived, and Received. Built on years of case management experience and field testing, the Core 4 model helps practitioners move beyond the binary “pro-social/anti-social” lens and instead gain a nuanced, actionable understanding of the social networks that influence client behavior. This episode explores how the Core 4 tool bridges assessment and intervention—serving as a roadmap for client-centered case planning and long-term behavioral change.

This episode features Victoria Ali  (Lancaster University, Lancaster, UK. Bradford Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, Bradford, UK)   What is already known about the topic? Nurses deliver care for patients and those important to them across acts that may intentionally or potentially hasten death, navigating this care within the boundaries of healthcare systems and professional regulation. The increase in permissive legislation relating to assisted dying is challenging healthcare professionals to consider how an assisted death sits alongside accepted or ‘traditional' healthcare practices at the end of life. Providing care in these situations can be challenging and requires emotional labour to navigate.   What this paper adds? This review allows recognition of how the emotional labour involved in providing care, and its subsequent impact, is often better recognised within assisted dying than for other acts that may be perceived as death hastening. The ‘normalising' of care, and consequently dying, within acts that may be perceived as hastening death limits the recognition of the emotional labour required for nurses to provide care in these circumstances. When supporting a patient through an assisted death, nurses focus on optimising the experience for the patient, whereas in other acts that may hasten death, nurses' primary focus is on the experience of those present with the patient.   Implications for practice, theory, or policy The impact on nurses' emotional well-being due to the expectation to engage in significant emotional labour, in all care that may be perceived as death hastening, should be considered in daily practice, policy and organisational structure. The provision of emotional support should be considered for nurses when involved in the delivery of care that may hasten death, either through intentional acts (an assisted death) or unintended consequence of the care. Normalising care that may be perceived as death-hastening can impact nurses' feelings of agency within care delivery and may need to be considered in jurisdictions with permissive assisted dying legislation as these practices embed within organisations.     Full paper available from:     https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/02692163251331162   If you would like to record a podcast about your published (or accepted) Palliative Medicine paper, please contact Dr Amara Nwosu:  a.nwosu@lancaster.ac.uk

Welcome to the Purple Patch Podcast! On this episode, IRONMAN Master Coach Matt Dixon discusses the importance of Rate of Perceived Effort (RPE) in endurance sports, emphasizing its role in training and racing. He explains that RPE, influenced by factors like muscle fatigue and psychological stress, is a subjective rating of effort that complements metrics. Dixon highlights common mistakes, such as over-reliance on data, and advocates for developing self-awareness through regular self-assessment. He suggests practical exercises like blind intervals and long runs to enhance RPE skills. Dixon also notes that RPE is crucial in life beyond sports, aiding in stress management and performance optimization.

Not Forgiving Someone HURTS YOU and NOT Your Perceived Offender; Forgive Like Jesus Who Forgives You, Unconditionally MESSAGE SUMMARY: If God has forgiven you, why do you have to confess your sins? Confession is for you. For you to forgive, as the Christ forgives you. Your forgiving others means that you release others from the offense that you believe they have committed. Jesus set the “forgiveness standard” for you as Paul tells us in Ephesians 4:31-32: “Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you, along with all malice. Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you.". Someone said that “holding a grudge and not forgiving is like drinking poison yourself to kill your enemy”. However, your forgiveness is not conditioned on the offender coming and asking you for their forgiveness – if you are like Jesus, you have already forgiven the offender. If you do not forgive like Jesus, the offense festers and turns into resentment; and these unhealthy feelings are happening in you and not in the perceived offender because you have not forgiven your perceived offender as instructed be Jesus – “forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you”.     TODAY'S PRAYER: Lord, fill me with the simple trust that even out of the most awful evil around me, you are able to bring great good — for me, for others, and for your great glory. In Jesus' name, amen.     Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 91). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: Today, I affirm that because I am in Jesus Christ, I will entrust to Him my future. I know whom I have believed, and am convinced that he is able to guard what I have entrusted to him for that day.  From 2 Timothy 1:12 SCRIPTURE REFERENCE (ESV): Ephesians 4:31-32; Mathew 6:14-15; Psalms 130:3-4; Psalms 32:1-11.

Stuart Delony is unabashedly snarky.  In fact, you could call it his trademark.  He's unapologetic.  He's direct.  He uses profanity.  And, he is calling out the inconsistencies within Evangelical Christianity and the American church, distinctions between what Jesus called His church to do and what we actually do.He's also a former pastor from within Evangelical Christian culture.That's awkward.But, is he correct?  And, if he is correct, is he going about it in the right way?Today's Kingdom Culture Conversation is going to be very interesting!Stuart Delony founded his blog and podcast--Snarky Faith--and it has grown to have a national reach.  His tagline is "Radio for the Spiritually Disenfranchised" and he's been prominently featured within the documentary, "In God we Trump"--an expose on the American church and its relationship with President Donald Trump.  With trademark snarky-ness as a key element of his communication tact, he can be seen as abrasive but the awkward part of it is, there are times where he may be right.Or, is he?  Today, you'll hear from Stuart directly and get the chance to decide.To learn more about Stuart Delony and Snarky Faith, please visit SnarkyFaith.com.To read the specific blog post that we discuss within the episode, "Culture Wars Distract from Jesus' Call", please follow this link.

Randy Koenen of Red River Farm Network and Randy Martinson of Martinson Ag Risk Management discuss the impact of upcoming ag reports and retaliatory tariffs on the Agweek Market Wrap. 

In my past year as a grantmaker in the global health and wellbeing (GHW) meta space at Open Philanthropy, I've identified some exciting ideas that could fill existing gaps. While these initiatives have significant potential, they require more active development and support to move forward. The ideas I think could have the highest impact are: Government placements/secondments in key GHW areas (e.g. international development), and Expanded (ultra) high-net-worth ([U]HNW) advising Each of these ideas needs a very specific type of leadership and/or structure. More accessible options I'm excited about — particularly for students or recent graduates — could involve virtual GHW courses or action-focused student groups. I can't commit to supporting any particular project based on these ideas ahead of time, because the likelihood of success would heavily depend on details (including the people leading the project). Still, I thought it would be helpful to [...] ---Outline:(01:19) Introduction(02:30) Project ideas(02:33) Fellowships and Placements(02:37) Placement orgs for governments and think tanks(03:06) Fellowships/Placements at GHW Organizations(03:57) More, and different, effective giving organizations(04:03) More (U)HNW advising(05:14) Targeting different niche demographics(05:50) Filling more geographic gaps(06:08) Infrastructure support for GHW organizations(06:38) EA-inspired GHW courses(06:56) BlueDot Impact for GHW(07:40) Incorporating EA content into university courses(08:35) Useful GHW events(08:51) Events bringing together EA and mainstream GHD orgs(09:57) Career panels or similar(10:13) More, and different, student groups(10:18) Action-focused student groups(11:34) Policy-focused grad student groups(11:51) Less thought-through ideas(13:12) Perceived impact and fitThe original text contained 2 footnotes which were omitted from this narration. --- First published: March 18th, 2025 Source: https://forum.effectivealtruism.org/posts/pAE6zfAgceCop6vcE/projects-i-d-like-to-see-in-the-ghw-meta-space --- Narrated by TYPE III AUDIO.

Consumers do not always act in accordance with their environmental concerns and intentions. Researchers have posited that Perceived Consumer Effectiveness (PCE), or the belief that one's behaviors are efficacious in ameliorating environmental impact, is a more appropriate explanatory variable. Yet, there have been contrasting results regarding the comparative effect of PCE, environmental concern, and intentions on green behavior. To address this question and to better understand the generalizability of the results to multiple cultures, the authors integrate PCE and environmental concern into a theoretical model based on the Theory of Planned Behavior. The results from a meta-analysis consisting of 118 studies, and 813 effect sizes, and 26,968 respondents reveal several key insights. First, cultural characteristics, such as power distance, masculinity, indulgence, and uncertainty moderate the relationship between PCE and green behavior. Second, contrary to prevailing assumptions, both PCE and environmental concern exhibit similar magnitudes in explaining overall green behavior. Third, a model with PCE and environmental concern demonstrates greater explanatory power for green behavior when compared to the traditional Theory of Planned Behavior model. These results offer valuable insights for researchers, managers, non-governmental organizations, and policymakers seeking culturally nuanced guidance to promote consumer green behavior more effectively.

Greetings, Wisdom Keeper!Is your reality correctly perceived?This question has two sides. We can become cognisant of those two sides by asking, “perceived by whom? One of those sides, and the most common, is where you feel that others don't interpret you correctly. An example of this side would be if you ever asked yourself, “why don't people get me?” Or when you make a statement such as, “I just don't get those people.” Some other examples are, “nobody understands me.” Or, “people just don't get where I am coming from.” Or, “if you could walk a day in my shoes.”The other side of this equation is less common but growing in popularity. This one is encompassed in the question, “am I interpreting my reality correctly?”Both sides of this equation are fascinating.It is commonplace for other people not to understand you or perceive the reality of your life correctly. We have not been given the tools or examples of how to do this.The next question we could ask ourselves around this first topic, which would move us along, could then be, “how do I express myself in a way that others can understand me and perceive me correctly?” But although it does move us along, it can easily entrap us.Here is the problem. Most people don't care to understand you or see your true nature. Not really. Even if another person is super interested in your life and reality, it will eventually become obvious that they have their own personal reason, their own importances for that interest. And it doesn't actually involve you or your reality.It is a dynamic of, “what is in it for me?”In the Love, Sex and Relationships Course, I give an exercise where the person sits in a public place, like a cafe, and as they see people they make a statement “that person is too…bla bla” then the answer comes, “for what?” And the answer illustrates our own agendas around connecting or not connecting with that person. It shows us many programs we may have running that limit our perception of the people around us. Programs that make up the reality we can see, and the reality we cannot see without breaking some barriers first.It is one of the main links in the chain of the power-over-others paradigm to be what is commonly referred as self-absorbed. In the West, self-absorption, or being self-involved, is pushed into a growing child in every single way and in every single day. Why? You may ask.Because otherwise, the child would naturally become sovereign and interpret the question the other way, “Am I perceiving my reality correctly?”Once a person starts asking themselves that question, even if once a day, the power-over-others mechanizations start to crack wide open.It is a first step, of course. “Am I perceiving my reality correctly?”As we ask this question, our minds expand and we test what we are perceiving. Often, when this happens, the programs and beliefs that hold us in a reality of fear and stress stop influencing us.The mechanisms to influence the masses and keep them locked up in their own self-absorbed state are easily crushed when we turn the tables on this simple question.A step after that could be, “am I perceiving your reality correctly?” And after that, “are we perceiving our reality correctly?”Play around with all of these questions. See what happens and come share it during our After Party on the subscriber page of DrivingToTheRez.comI look forward to hearing what our Wisdom Keepers have to say about their experience around this situation in their lives.The discussion doesn't stop here—listen to the full podcast episode for unfiltered insights from Inelia and our panelists.

It can be easy to assume we know why people leave our lives or don't treat us well. We must not be worthy, desirable, important, or intriguing enough to hold their attention and affections. Yet the truth is that people often reject or discard things that require more effort than they're willing to give and has nothing to do with us personally. Other than the fact that we may be too awesome to handle. So maybe it's time to release the self doubt and fear that we must be the problem and instead own our remarkable fabulousness.  On this week's guest episode I explore the concept of the quote stating that, Expensive Things Are Rejected All The Time By People Who Can't Afford Them. I offer various scenarios where this notion can show up in our lives including romantic relationships, friendships, and parent/family dynamics. I also talk a bit about today's (February 28th) New Moon in Pisces and its themes of dreamy, ethereal, and psychic energies and a time to explore more flow rather than structured creative ideas.Earth Power Oracle by Stacey Demarco: https://blueangelonline.com/shop/card-decks/oracle-cards/earth-power-oracle/* Women Waken Wednesdays will be held weekly on Wednesdays at 6pm PST starting in February!

Tanner Chidester went from struggling entrepreneur to scaling multiple seven and eight-figure businesses—but after hitting $1M/month, he realized something was missing. In this episode, we dive deep into his journey, from early hustle to high-ticket coaching success, and the hard lessons about money, fulfillment, and business scalability. Tanner reveals why most entrepreneurs stall at six figures, how to pivot when strategies stop working, and what separates business owners who plateau from those who scale past $1M/month. What You'll Learn in This Episode: ✔️ The mindset shift Tanner made after hitting $1M/month✔️ Why coaching & consulting businesses have an income ceiling✔️ The biggest hiring mistakes that prevent business growth✔️ How to scale past $100K/month (most entrepreneurs get this wrong)✔️ The future of AI in business, content, and marketing✔️ Why high-ticket is actually easier to sell than low-ticket If you're scaling your business, struggling with sales, or looking for your next big pivot, this episode is packed with insights from someone who's done it at the highest level.

Key Takeaways & Lessons from the Episode 1. The “Million a Month” Realization: Money Won't Fix Everything Tanner hit $1M/month, threw a huge party, and quickly realized… no one cared. After sacrificing friendships, relationships, and free time, he started questioning what actually mattered. His new goal: Building businesses that don't just make money, but also fuel personal growth and freedom. 2. Why Coaching & Consulting Won't Make You a Billionaire High-ticket coaching is great for cash flow, but bad for scale because it requires manual fulfillment. After interviewing ultra-high-net-worth individuals, Tanner found that billion-dollar businesses have: Private Equity: Buying & scaling businesses. Hedge Funds: Managing investor capital at scale. Tech & SaaS: Low-overhead, high-leverage products. If freedom & scalability matter, you need a business that delivers consistent value without constant effort. 3. The 80/20 Rule for Pivoting When Business Strategies Stop Working Many entrepreneurs panic and completely overhaul their strategies too quickly. Instead, test new strategies gradually → Keep 80% of your budget/resources in what's still working and 20% in testing new approaches. Example: If spending $10K/month on ads, keep $8K in proven methods, $2K for testing. 4. Scaling from $100K to $1M: Why Most Entrepreneurs Stall 0-100K/month: Can be brute-forced with hard work and personal effort. 100K-1M/month: Requires hiring, delegation, and team leadership. Biggest mistake: Entrepreneurs think “working harder” will grow their business. Instead, success depends on acquiring & keeping high-level talent. If your team can't execute at a high level, your business will hit a ceiling. 5. Organic vs. Paid Traffic: What's Actually Working in 2025? If you don't have money for ads: Create engaging content that starts inbound conversations. Cold outreach – Manually message potential leads. Content Strategy Tanner Recommends: Case Studies → Show testimonials & proof. Value Posts → Teach something people can use immediately. Lifestyle (optional) → Build relatability & trust. Why high-ticket is easier to sell: Fewer sales needed to hit revenue goals. Perceived value increases when pricing is positioned correctly. 6. The Truth About Instagram Shoutouts & Boosted Posts Do shoutouts still work? → Not as well as before. Best for B2C (fitness, lifestyle brands), not B2B (coaching, consulting). Better alternative? → Boosted posts with DM automations (ex: “Comment ‘Blueprint' for a free training”). Rule of thumb: If it doesn't bring a direct return, it's not worth it. 7. AI in Business & Content Creation: What's Useful Right Now? AI is great for copywriting, DM automation, and content ideation. Not replacing human storytelling anytime soon. Best use case: Automating repetitive tasks to free up time. Final Thoughts & What to Do Next Tanner Chidester has built, scaled, and pivoted multiple businesses to seven and eight figures. His biggest lesson? Money alone won't fix your problems—but the right strategy will give you both freedom and financial success. Want to grow your business?

Imagine being on a journey where love, divine guidance, and ice cream are your compass. That's exactly what Sue Ryan experienced throughout her caregiving path. With over 40 years of personal caregiving and a strong background in enterprise software, Sue joins us to share her incredible story. From caring for her grandmother, father, and husband, Sue managed to balance these responsibilities while maintaining a thriving professional life. Her experiences offer a powerful blend of practical advice and spiritual insight, promising to empower anyone navigating similar roles.Sue brings to light the surprising gifts that caregiving can offer, not just to those receiving care but to the caregivers themselves. She reveals how small acts, like offering a favorite treat, can profoundly impact a care receiver's emotional state. Through Sue's storytelling, we explore the beauty in the seemingly mundane and find honor in caring for those who can't care for themselves. These moments, guided by love and a touch of divine intervention, shape our purpose and transform how we serve others, turning challenges into true wisdom.Our conversation celebrates the unique and perfectly imperfect nature of caregiving. Perceived failures? They're just stepping stones for learning and growth. We embrace the curiosity often lost in adulthood, finding joy in exploration and life's unanswered questions. As Sue shares her personal story of God's presence during life's final stages, faith emerges as a comforting ally. Through all these experiences, hope remains a steadfast companion, inviting listeners to connect deeply with our caring community, always ready to support and inspire.
