Send us a Positive Review!Series title: Mormon Faith Crisis—Progression, Not Pathology [Part II of III]In today's episode Valerie and guest researcher Jeff Strong explore why people in the same LDS congregation can experience church so differently, depending on where they are in their faith journey. They introduce Jeff's model of six faith mindsets—seekers, cultivators, protectors, avoiders, connectors, and explorers—each representing valid and meaningful ways of engaging faith. The problem? That many of these healthy and normal ways of engaging with one's faith journey are pathologized within the LDS culture at both local and general levels. Valerie and Jeff hope that research like Jeff's and platforms like Latter Day Struggles will place growth where it actually belongs--as normal, natural, and precisely what each of us are here on this earth to do. Timestamps:00:00 – Introduction and Welcome00:22 – Series Overview and Jeff's Background01:18 – Exploring Church Demographics and Tensions02:45 – Review of Previous Episode04:00 – Cultural Causes of Tension05:30 – The Weight of Disaffiliation07:00 – Research Methodology and Data Collection07:58 – Strengths of LDS Culture09:45 – Personal Reflections on Community11:35 – Weaknesses of LDS Culture13:20 – The Soil Metaphor for Culture15:00 – The River Metaphor: Rigidity vs. Chaos17:10 – The Impact of Cultural Rigidity18:45 – The Struggle for Belonging20:09 – Stages of Faith Development22:00 – Simplicity and Complexity Explained23:45 – Perplexity and Harmony Explained25:30 – Faith Journeys and Community Reactions27:00 – The Pain of Being Misunderstood28:22 – Personal Faith Journeys29:47 – The Garden of Eden Metaphor30:47 – Pathologizing Growth in Faith32:00 – The Need for Community Support33:09 – Community and Belonging33:52 – Brian McLaren's Model in Scriptures35:30 – The Arc of Human Spiritual Growth37:25 – Understanding Different Faith Mindsets39:00 – Disparities in Perceptions of Christ-Centeredness40:30 – The Loneliness of Nonconformity42:04 – Introducing the Six Segments44:00 – Descriptions of Each Segment46:00 – The Dynamic Nature of Faith Mindsets47:00 – Encouragement for Self-Reflection48:24 – Conclusion and Next StepsSupport the showSupport the show Listen, Share, Rate & Review EPISODES Friday Episodes Annual Access $89 Friday Episodes Monthly Access $10 Valerie's Support & Processing Groups Gift a Scholarship Download Free Resources Visit our Website

This episode features Lily Man Lee Chan (School of Nursing, Li Ka Shing Faculty of Medicine, The University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong SAR).   What is already known about the topic?   Progressive neurologic diseases involve complex, fluctuating symptoms and function decline. Palliative care aims to improve quality of life and symptom control. Access to palliative services is often limited to advanced disease stages or based on prognosis. Palliative care needs among people with progressive neurological diseases are understudied in Asian contexts.   What this paper adds? People with progressive neurological diseases experience significant palliative care needs related to physical, psychosocial, and spiritual concerns from the early stages of illness, highlighting the necessity of early palliative care based on individual needs rather than prognosis. Patients with progressive neurological diseases navigated complex psychospiritual distress, transitioning from negativity to life renegotiation by fostering acceptance, focusing on the present, and embracing a positive outlook despite ongoing disease progression and future uncertainties. Findings underscore the importance of adopting a person-centered holistic approach that incorporates psychospiritual support, suggesting a symptom-based palliative care approach.   Implications for practice, theory or policy Palliative care services should proactively assess and address the multidimensional needs of people with progressive neurological diseases from diagnosis onward, not only at advanced stages. Health professionals need to integrate psychospiritual care and facilitate timely, open conversations about future care preferences before cognitive decline occurs. Policy and service development should enable needs-based, flexible access to palliative care for people with progressive neurological diseases, and promote education for patients, families, and providers on the benefits of early palliative involvement.   Full paper available from:     https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/02692163251394908   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

PREVIEW — Bruce Bechtol — Kim Jong-un's Vital Role in the Axis of Evil. Bechtol discusses how Kim Jong-un, despite international perceptions of him as a "clownish figure," is regarded with strategic seriousness by the "axis of evil," which now encompasses four nations. This respect stems from Pyongyang's formidable military capabilities, including a sophisticated arsenal of nuclear weapons and ballistic missiles, coupled with its demonstrated ability to manufacture and proliferate vital weapon systems required by axis partners throughout the region.

China's rise is often framed as a geopolitical contest, but Kaiser Y Kuo, host of the Sinica Podcast, pushes us to confront something deeper: what if China's transformation exposes the West's blind spots about modernity, power, and progress itself? Jacob and Kaiser wrestle with uncomfortable parallels between America's Gilded Age and China's present, the myths we cling to about innovation and identity, and the way global narratives harden into self-soothing fictions.

A talk by Thanissaro Bhikkhu entitled "Pains & Perceptions"

In the past week, breakthrough developments surrounding Ozempic and its use for weight loss have dominated health news, reflecting sweeping changes in both medical access and public perception. According to Popular Mechanics, Novo Nordisk, the pharmaceutical giant behind Ozempic and the similar injectable Wegovy, has just revealed the results of a major 71-week clinical study evaluating an oral pill form of semaglutide, the active ingredient in both Ozempic and Wegovy. This study, published in The New England Journal of Medicine, found that the daily pill achieved nearly the same results as the weekly injection, with participants losing an average of 16.6 percent of their body weight, far surpassing the 2.7 percent weight loss seen in the placebo group. About one third of those taking the pill lost more than 20 percent of their starting weight, signaling not just statistical significance but profound clinical impact. The trial also reported side effects consistent with earlier injectable versions, including increased incidences of nausea and vomiting, though these were not severe enough to derail the optimism surrounding the pill's future.Compounding these scientific advancements, the White House this week announced successful negotiations with both Eli Lilly and Novo Nordisk to dramatically reduce the cost of GLP-1 receptor agonists—the drug class of Ozempic, Wegovy, and Zepbound—which many insurance providers had previously excluded or charged full price for. Now, eligible patients may see their out-of-pocket costs plummet from over one thousand dollars per month to a much more accessible fifty to three hundred fifty dollars depending on dosage and coverage. According to comments from Kim Fisher at the UC Davis Innovation Institute for Food and Health, these price adjustments are expected to drive a swift increase in demand and medication use, with around one in eight adult Americans having already tried some form of GLP-1 therapy.Despite the popularity and transformative outcomes touted by both consumers and medical professionals, Ozempic and related drugs are not without controversy. While these medications have reshaped the landscape for obesity and diabetes treatment, as UC Davis reports, emerging evidence indicates a need for caution and individualized care. Some patients experience notable gastrointestinal effects such as nausea and diarrhea, largely because GLP-1 drugs alter how the gut processes food and signal fullness to the brain. In addition, while fat loss can be dramatic, experts highlight that up to one quarter of the total weight lost may be from lean muscle, underscoring the importance of physical activity and adequate protein to preserve strength. Another concern echoed this week involves bone health, as rapid weight loss and restricted nutrition may inadvertently reduce bone density, especially in older adults and postmenopausal women. Leading researchers emphasize that a successful and safe weight loss journey with Ozempic demands precision nutrition, attentive exercise regimens, and regular monitoring to minimize health risks and maximize wellbeing.The intersection of celebrity culture with the Ozempic phenomenon also drew fresh attention over the past week, especially regarding Oprah Winfrey's evolving relationship with the drug. Oprah, who has long shared her struggles with weight publicly, admitted in recent interviews that she initially resisted taking Ozempic, saying she felt it was the easy way out and preferred to focus on lifestyle change. According to AOL, she reflected on her internal conflict about using medical intervention for weight loss, underscoring how the rise of drugs like Ozempic has forced a cultural reckoning over what constitutes effort, discipline, and legitimacy in personal health. While some celebrity peers openly dismiss rumors or deny any use of weight loss drugs, Oprah's decision to speak candidly about her hesitation and subsequent experiences gives voice to a wider conversation happening both in Hollywood and across the nation. As more public figures reveal their choices, the stigma of using medication to address chronic weight struggles may begin to dissipate, helping others seek support without shame.In summary, the past week has marked a pivotal moment in the ongoing Ozempic story. The introduction of a highly effective oral pill, substantial price cuts via government negotiation, and ongoing public debate about safety, efficacy, and cultural perceptions have all contributed to growing momentum. Now, as clinicians and patients alike look ahead to a future where advanced weight management tools are both more accessible and potentially safer to use, the importance of personalized guidance and health literacy has never been clearer.Thanks for listening, please subscribe, and remember—this episode was brought to you by Quiet Please podcast networks.

There are more reports of the US administration scrambling to cut tariffs using framework trade deals with Latin American economies. Heightened political concerns about US consumers' inflation perceptions seem to be leading a drive to reduce the tariffs US importers pay on food products. Bilateral negotiations with Latin American countries will be limited in their scope because of Mercosur trade pact rules.

The latest episode of Oncology On the Go focused on survivorship and supportive care. Stemming from conversations with leading clinicians in the field, the compilation highlights gaps and educational insights into multiple areas.  Covering topics like nutrition, oncodermatology, body image, sexual health, and mortality, these conversations explored how to truly optimize multidisciplinary cancer care.   Declan Walsh, MD, chair of the Department of Supportive Oncology at Atrium Health Levine Cancer Institute: 1:01-2:44: What is the importance of developing and managing supportive care at major oncology centers, and how can it be adapted across the US? 2:45-4:19: Supportive care is one piece of the multidisciplinary team. How can clinicians work with supportive care specialists to ensure that patients are receiving all the help that they need? Denise Reynolds, RD, of Atrium Health Levine Cancer Institute: 4:20-5:46: Some adverse effects (AEs) include severe nausea and vomiting. What nutritional strategies do you recommend to ensure adequate intake? 5:47-7:29: Taste and smell changes are common AEs. What advice do you give to patients to help cope and combat them? Adam Friedman, MD, FAAD, professor and chair of dermatology, director of the Residency Program, and director of translational research at George Washington Medical Faculty Associates in Washington, DC: 7:30-9:24: Your study found that a significant proportion of respondents, including those who have been previously treated for cancer, would decline anti-cancer therapies due to dermatologic AEs like hair loss. What are some crucial communication strategies oncologists should employ to address this? 9:25-11:37: What should all oncology clinicians know about how to manage mild to moderate dermatologic AEs? 11:38-24:54: Daniel C. McFarland, DO, the director of the Psycho-Oncology Program at Wilmot Cancer Center; a medical oncologist who specializes in head, neck, and lung cancer; and the psycho-oncology editorial advisory board member for the journal ONCOLOGY®, spoke with different psycho-oncology colleagues regarding topics like body image, sexual health, and mortality.

Are we living through an actual decline—or is that just a narrative fueled by polarization and economic anxiety? Tom and Michael clash over definitions, metrics, and the real-world symptoms of unrest, from “soft secession” among states to the creeping rise of populism and political violence. Together, they unpack the hidden costs of inflation, housing bubbles, and deficit spending, with Tom warning about a dangerous fork in the road ahead: revolution, civil war, or the quiet erosion into economic stagnation. Michael pushes back, claiming America is in “ascension” in some critical ways, but he doesn't shy away from calling out the breakdown in civic discourse and the silos fueling division. They dig into historical context, global comparisons, and the role of universities as modern indoctrination hubs. This conversation doesn't stop at politics—it veers into the future of AI, the meaning of tribalism, social credit scores, and how technological upheaval might drive us all into virtual worlds or leave millions behind. Buckle up for a wild ride through uncomfortable truths, dark humor, and some offbeat protein bar analogies—you're about to hear two radically different views not just of where America stands, but what could come next.   00:00 – Intro 00:34 – Michael Malice pushes back on “collapse” rhetoric 01:14 – America vs. the world: Perceptions of American power and value 04:16 – Political siloization and the shrinking space for dialogue 05:56 – Soft secession: State vs. federal power games 08:39 – Paths ahead: Civil War, Argentina, or revolution? 10:46 – Revolution mechanics: Is another 1860s-style war possible? 13:12 – Violence, political unrest, and expanding executive power 16:06 – Economic crushing of young people and the rise of populism 17:58 – Housing, inflation, and the struggle for the American Dream 20:08 – Currency as a store of value: Societal ruin and a lack of political will 23:10 – The Japan counterargument and the threshold for crisis 26:07 – What drives people to “blink” in political standoffs? 28:24 – Party priorities, empty rhetoric, and pivoting for power 32:00 – Economic disenfranchisement, the myth of moderate politics 36:56 – Populism vs. establishment: Energies within parties 39:03 – Political novelty, enthusiasm gaps, and voter turnout 41:38 – Global leftward drift: Authoritarianism in Canada, UK, and beyond 46:13 – “The time for talk is over”—what this actually means 47:27 – Universities as the “villains” and the creation of ruling elites 49:56 – Marxism, egalitarianism, and cultural bifurcation 52:02 – Cultural shifts, earnestness vs. revolution, and memory-holed leftism 54:00 – The dangers of social conformity and shifting the Overton window 56:29 – Can universities be reined in? 1:00:16 – Narrative control, new media chaos, and elite power after the Internet 1:06:49 – The politics of blame: Antisemitism, conspiracies, and populist rage 1:13:13 – Warning signs: Measuring society's health by its scapegoats 1:19:12 – Israel-Palestine, war, and the elusive search for peace 1:21:52 – The next stage: AI, algorithmic reality, and broken discourse 1:24:00 – Goal orientation, skills, and navigating “useful” beliefs 1:25:18 – Tribalism, isolation, and the dangers for moderates 1:26:46 – Alex Jones, Candace Owens, and why conspiracy theories persist 1:32:00 – First principles: How to actually challenge your beliefs 1:33:56 – A personal story: Sleep apnea, anxiety, and reclaiming clarity 1:37:21 – AI, automation, and the fate of surplus labor 1:40:08 – Brave New World, artificial difficulty, and the post-economic Matrix 1:48:56 – Hardwired for scarcity: The psychological cost of abundance 1:51:16 – Trade-offs, Thomas Sowell, and the “protein bar” thought experiment   --------------------------------------------------------------------  Check out our ACU Patreon page: https://www.patreon.com/ACUPodcast   HELP ACU SPREAD THE WORD!  Please go to Apple Podcasts and give ACU a 5 star rating.

In this Soul Elevation livestream, I'm exploring the theme of soul growth, personal evolution, and what it means to live in true alignment. As we move through life, we often feel the call to change. Yet it can be difficult when we begin to see ourselves through other people's eyes. In this conversation, I share my own experience of going through a big personal shift as I transition into wearing my natural gray hair. This change has opened a deeper reflection about self-image, perception, and the courage it takes to live authentically.   In this episode, I talk about: ✨ How other people's opinions can quietly influence our choices ✨ Why genuine transformation can bring discomfort before freedom ✨ How to recognize the quiet guidance of your soul ✨ The importance of trusting your inner knowing even when others may not understand This message is a reminder to listen to your own soul and to honor the ways you are growing. It is about releasing the need for approval, finding peace in your evolution, and living as your most authentic self. I hope this livestream encourages you to celebrate your own growth on Halloween and beyond.

Perceptions of the American Economy: Rich vs. Poor. Jim McTague, a novelist and former editor, approached a wealthy couple who described the economy as "really great for rich people" but "hell" for the poor. They claimed to have seen terrible poverty while driving across the country. However, when pressed to identify where, the woman named "Indiana," a state McTague observes has a booming economy. When asked if they personally knew anyone unemployed or unable to find a job, the couple could not name anyone.

Sarah AND Susie had MRIs (separately, but still), and let's just say it didn't go well. Hear them trauma bond about it. We learn that cows have accents depending on where they live, and even their mood and what they're mooing about. And we learn how we even know that. We discuss how inspired we are by the work and life of Jane Goodall, and how her legacy will live on. We talk about how there are different expectations for different circumstances and how standards change all the time and expectations affect our perceptions.

4. Khrushchev, Putin's Perceptions, and the Soviet Golden Age in Ukraine The Soviet period saw Ukraine rise to crucial importance; leaders like Khrushchev and Brezhnev spent large parts of their careers in the Ukrainian Communist Party apparatus. In 1954, Khrushchev transferred Crimea from the Russian Federation to Ukraine for practical reasons, as Kyiv was better positioned to manage it than Moscow. During the 1960s, Ukraine became a critical industrial manufacturing center, producing coal, military ballistic missiles, and space-related equipment, reinforcing its centrality to the Soviet state. Vladimir Putin, born in 1953, formed his understanding of Ukraine during this relatively calm period.

Russians became emotionally attached to Ukraine as "ours," making the idea of Ukrainian independence not even a question for debate in the Russian mindset. 1855 CRIMEA
