What happens when a life in climbing spans five decades, multiple eras, and some of the most surprising moments in outdoor history?In this episode, legendary climber Russ Clune takes us inside the world that shaped him: the Shawangunks (“the Gunks”) of the 1970s and 80s — an unlikely counterculture just two hours from Manhattan where artists, dirtbags, misfits, and pioneers built the early soul of American climbing.Russ shares rare, behind-the-scenes stories from his incredible career, including:• Competing in a government-run climbing event in Cold War Russia Painted red lines on limestone cliffs, leather-gloved belayers, Soviet stadium crowds, and a Wyoming cowboy becoming a national hero overnight. It's a chapter of climbing history almost no one has heard.• The quiet era of “competitive free soloing” in the Gunks Russ recounts the friendly, unspoken one-upmanship among friends that culminated in his iconic solo of Supercrack. A moment that revealed both the power and limits of the mind — and marked the end of his soloing career.• What longevity really looks like at 66 Not superhuman strength — but consistency, humility, curiosity, and the ability to redefine performance as the decades unfold.• How to stay connected to your sport when your body changes Russ talks openly about becoming the belay anchor instead of the rope gun, and why aging in climbing can feel meaningful in its own way.

When we talk about how to trust your gut feelings, we're delving into a realm where intuition meets experience.

If you want to get leaner and live longer check out https://milliondollarbodylabs.com   Is diabetes truly a life sentence, or can you reverse it without relying on drugs like Metformin or Ozempic?   I talked with Chris Reade, who discovered a serious health condition after a life insurance exam. His A1C went from normal to a high 9.1 in 10 months because of visceral fat around his pancreas. Doctors told him this disease was progressive and incurable, but Chris refused that sentence. He researched and found a simple strategy focused on using soluble fiber to control blood sugar spikes. This method forces weight loss naturally by providing bulk, reducing hunger, and mitigating the effect of sugar. His approach involves practical, everyday systems like habit stacking and focusing on food volume to give control back to the individual.   Key Takeaways Type 2 diabetes is caused by the accumulation of visceral fat (more than a gram or two) on the pancreas, which hinders its function. It has been known since the 1970s that you can absolutely reverse diabetes. Losing more than 10% of your body weight causes the body to pull fat off the pancreas, leading to the reversal of Type 2 diabetes roughly 80% of the time. Soluble fiber, found in foods like broccoli, Brussels sprouts, oatmeal, and chickpeas, slows digestion and absorbs sugar, mitigating blood sugar spikes. By focusing heavily on soluble fiber, you feel very full all the time, which is a key mechanism for effortless weight loss and managing cravings. Performing even a small amount of exercise, such as two to five minutes of walking immediately after a meal, can knock blood sugar down by up to 25%. The current medical model for treating diabetes in the U.S. is structured to promote dependency on medication, making diabetes prevention and remission less of a focus.   Resources Website: https://www.beatingdiabetes.us Book: Beating Diabetes by Chris Reade. https://www.beatingdiabetes.us/the-book Instagram: @beatingdiabetesus https://www.instagram.com/beatingdiabetesus LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/beatingdiabetes/   Nate Palmer: The founder of The Million Dollar Body and author of "The Million Dollar Body Method", Nate has been coaching for over 15 years and has worked personally with over 1,000 clients.

Instead of listing three things you're thankful for or posting something online that sounds good, they explore what it looks like to experience gratitude from the inside out. They break down the difference between goals and intentions, why slowing down matters, and how savoring small moments can turn gratitude into a steady part of daily life—not just something you try to do when things are going well. They also share personal stories from clinical work and their own lives that reveal how gratitude shows up during stress, growth, grief, and connection.

  In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Sana sits down with trauma support specialist, writer, and reclamation coach Ashana Kaiulani to unpack what real healing looks like when you stop treating it like a checklist. No more chasing the next journal prompt, cold plunge, or affirmation. Instead, Ashana shares her Peaceful Accountability Method, a nervous system centered framework that helps survivors of childhood abuse, domestic violence, betrayal, and narcissistic abuse move from survival mode into grounded self trust. You will hear a direct conversation on how to befriend your nervous system, build safety from the inside out, and replace self blame with honest self awareness, self compassion, and self validation. If you feel tired of “fixing yourself” and still ending up in the same patterns, this episode will help you see healing as a homecoming, not a performance. About the Guest  : Ashana Kaiulani is a trauma support specialist, writer, and reclamation coach who works with women healing from deep betrayal and narcissistic abuse. Drawing from her own journey through childhood abuse, domestic violence, and raising eight children, she created the Peaceful Accountability Method, a relational and nervous system based approach that centers safety, compassion, and real life change. She also hosts The Reclamation Room podcast and leads her work through Way Home Wellness. Key Takeaways : Healing is not a race to a finish line. It is remembering who you have always been and letting your nervous system experience safety in real time. The Peaceful Accountability Method focuses on befriending your nervous system instead of “controlling” or “fixing” it, using imagination, body awareness, and gentle presence. Safety is something we build, not something we wait to be given. Often it feels unfamiliar or even “boring” at first if you have lived in survival mode. Self awareness, self compassion, and self validation become powerful when you stop using them as self help buzzwords and start applying them to everyday triggers and patterns. Moving out of learned victimhood requires honest accountability with deep kindness. You can acknowledge harm and still choose new behaviour without shaming yourself. Healing is relational. Community, safe witnesses, and supportive guidance help widen your lens beyond trauma tunnel vision and rebuild trust in yourself and others.

High performance without alignment leads to burnout and emotional exhaustion. This episode shows you how identity shifts happen in the body, not the mind — and how to live from truth instead of performance. A gentle, embodied recalibration.If you've ever wondered why you continue showing up as the strong one — even when you're tired, even when you know better, even when your spirit is asking for something gentler — this episode is for you.This week, we've been uncovering the identity story beneath high performance: the role you learned to play in order to be safe, chosen, or loved. Today, we move from awareness to embodiment.Because identity does not shift through insight alone. Insight is the invitation. Embodiment is the acceptance.Your nervous system has been loyal to the identity that once protected you. It isn't resisting growth — it's guarding belonging. This is why performance patterns feel so automatic, even when they no longer fit.In this episode, we explore:• Why your body keeps choosing the familiar (even when it's draining) • How safety — not self-discipline — is what allows identity to shift • The real marker of transformation: staying with yourself in the moment you would have abandoned yourself • How to live from your truest identity now, without collapsing your life or losing your excellenceThis is not mindset work or behavior management. This is Identity-Level Recalibration — the root-level shift that makes every other tool effective again.Today's Micro RecalibrationWhen you feel yourself slipping into performance mode, pause for one breath. Hand to ribs or abdomen. Ask gently: “Am I choosing from fear or from truth?” Don't fix. Don't correct. Just notice. Noticing is becoming.If this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

Episode 333 It's not often you get to see or hear someone playing music on a conch shell. So prepare yourself for a musical treat with musician and podcaster Steve Pretty, who brings into the studio a trumpet and a collection of his favourite conches, rigged up to some modern electronics. Steve is best known as the bandleader of the Hackney Colliery Band, and also hosts the Steve Pretty On the Origin of the Pieces podcast. Performing live on the show and recreating the acoustics of prehistoric cave gatherings (a rave in a cave!) Steve explains the science behind how conches and brass instruments can achieve so many different notes by manipulating air pressure and flow. He explores the evolution and origin of music - which may have evolved before language. And he explains the evocative nature of music, the different functions that it has in society and how it allows us to tap into different emotional states.  Hosted by Rowan Hooper and Penny Sarchet.

High performers often fear that if they stop performing, they'll lose success. In this episode, learn why that fear exists and how to shift into a way of succeeding that doesn't cost your peace, your presence, or yourself.Many high-capacity humans hold a quiet fear:If I stop performing, I'll lose everything I've built.Because for so long, success has been defined as up and to the right — more impact, more producing, more proving. When your spirit begins craving stillness, spaciousness, or a different way of being, it often feels like failure.This episode reframes that fear.You do not need to abandon your excellence to step out of performance.The shift is not to do less — the shift is to do what you do from who you truly are.We explore how identity memory shapes the nervous system and how performance patterns are not signs of weakness, but signs of loyalty to the identity that once kept you safe. When your system receives evidence that it is safe to be your truer self, success becomes something deeper, more grounded, and more aligned.We look to Vera Wang, who did not reinvent herself — she returned to herself. Her path reminds us that growth doesn't always look linear. Success doesn't always look like acceleration. True expansion begins when you stop leaving yourself behind.This is where Identity-Level Recalibration comes in — not as a mindset tactic or behavior hack, but as the root-level shift that allows you to succeed without abandoning your spirit.Micro Recalibration (Today)When you feel the pull to perform or prove, pause.Place your hand low on your abdomen and say:“I can remain powerful and let my spirit breathe.”Not a correction. A permission.Team / Leadership ExtensionAsk in your next planning or check-in conversation:“Are we choosing this because it looks like progress — or because it feels like alignment?”This restores clarity, presence, and integrity.If this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

Even in retirement, small expenses can quietly drain your income — until you take a closer look. In this episode, Joe Curry shares how a simple personal cashflow audit saved him over $2,000 a year and outlines practical steps retirees can use to find — and fix — their own hidden money leaks. Perfect for Canadians focused on tax-efficient retirement income planning and smarter spending.   Key Takeaways Small leaks sink big ships — even in retirement. Performing a personal cashflow audit can uncover significant amounts in annual savings. Subscriptions add up fast. Many retirees pay for apps, streaming services, or memberships they've forgotten about. Canceling unused ones can free up hundreds of dollars a year. Your needs change in retirement — your insurance should too. Review life, home, and auto coverage regularly to make sure you're not overpaying for outdated protection. Tax inefficiency is an invisible leak. Pulling income from the wrong accounts or missing opportunities like CPP deferral can quietly cost thousands in unnecessary taxes. Question your habits. Routines you've "always done" — from premium cell plans to cable TV — may not serve your retirement lifestyle anymore.   Resources Retirement Planning Simplified Blog Matthews and Associates Book a Cashflow Audit Call Related RPS Episodes: Ep 134 - Smart Tax Strategies for More Efficient Retirement Planning   Thank you for listening!

This week on the New Music Business podcast, Ari sits down with acclaimed pianist and composer, Chloe Flower. Born in Pennsylvania, Chloe began playing piano at age two, later studying at the Manhattan School of Music Pre-College and London's Royal Academy of Music. A classically trained pianist turned genre-bender, she calls her unique style “popsical” (a fusion of classical, pop, and hip-hop). She has collaborated with major artists like Céline Dion, Babyface, Nas, and Cardi B (whose 2019 Grammy performance she helped elevate). Beyond music, Chloe is a passionate advocate for music education and anti-human trafficking efforts.In this episode, Ari and Chloe dive into her artistic journey. They discuss everything from rigorous classical training to creating a hybrid genre that seemed nonexistent before her. Chloe explains how she navigates the music business, and the lessons she's learned from bridging two very distinct worlds. Ari and Chloe talk about label strategy, collaboration with big-name artists and producers, and maintaining authenticity while scaling. Chloe shares her approach to building a personal brand (both musically and visually), her perspective on empowering women in the industry, and how she sees the future of genre-fluid music and education. https://www.instagram.com/misschloeflower05:00 – The Holiday Album and Women Composers10:30 – Understanding Public Domain and Classical Music Rights15:45 – YouTube Covers, Metadata, and Going Independent19:00 – Meeting Babyface and Blending Genres25:00 – The Viral Grammy Performance with Cardi B29:30 – Evolving Sound and the Role of Collaboration33:00 – Running an Independent Label and Revenue Streams36:00 – Pros and Cons of Major vs. Indie Labels47:00 – Music Education and Inspiring the Next Generation54:00 – Performing with Orchestras and ConductorsEdited and mixed by Peter SchruppMusic by Brassroots DistrictProduced by the team at Ari's TakeOrder the THIRD EDITION of How to Make It in the New Music Business: https://book.aristake.com Hosted on Acast.

Joy's Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/upleveling/id1799955082 Saboteurs Assement: https://www.positiveintelligence.com/saboteurs/ --- You weren't born to perform, unless you're Meryl Streep (She's soooooo good). You were born to be you.  But somewhere along the line, most of us got the message that we had to shape-shift, overdeliver, or hide our truth to fit in. In this episode of Intuition: Your Success Compass, I'm calling out the masks we wear at work, in relationships, even in our own self-talk, and how to let them go gently. Because being palatable isn't the goal, being aligned is. What I get into: The Saboteur voices behind performance patterns. How your Sage knows who you truly are. Why ditching people-pleasing is the ultimate freedom move. A simple Positive Intelligence practice to break the perform/doubt cycle. How I support clients in Mindset Breakthrough to stop proving and start living. If you've been trying to earn your worth or audition for love and success, this episode is your gentle but firm invitation to put the script down and come home to yourself.

For the first time in history, a human bladder was transplanted. Dr. Nima Nassiri (UCLA) joins Dr. Ruchika Talwar to share how his team completed this landmark operation alongside a kidney transplant. He walks through the clinical scenario, key steps in donor and recipient selection, and how years of preclinical work informed the operative approach. --- SYNPOSIS The conversation explores the broader future of bladder transplant surgery, from ethical considerations to the potential for merging bladder transplantation with tolerance-induction protocols that could one day eliminate the need for lifelong immunosuppression.

Three actions were performed at the bottom of the altar on the southwest side, as derived from verses in the Torah. The bird burnt offering was usually brought on the southeast side so that the kohen could be close to the beit hadeshen, where parts of the bird were discarded. Three actions were performed at the top of the altar on the southwest side, and the kohen performing the action would go directly there instead of walking around the altar entirely. The reason was to avoid damaging the items from the smoke rising at the top of the altar. The Mishna describes in detail how the bird sin offering was performed. A braita provides a source explaining why the blood of this offering was placed on the lower part of the altar and not the upper part, as is done with the animal sin offering and the bird burnt offering. Two different versions of how to perform melika are presented—one in the name of Rav and one from a braita. It was known to be one of the more difficult actions the kohen had to perform. Performing the kmitza on the meal offering and the chafina with the incense on Yom Kippur were also known to be challenging. The Mishna describes in detail how the bird burnt offering was performed. Some elements were similar to the sin offering, yet many differed. For example, the head was not severed in the sin offering, but was in the burnt offering. The entire bird was eaten by the kohanim in the sin offering, whereas the burnt offering was completely burned, aside from the parts tossed into the beit hadeshen (crop, feathers, and innards). Other differences include the laws regarding sacrificing with intent for the wrong type of offering. The sin offering is disqualified, as with animal offerings, while the burnt offering is not. Regular laws of pigul apply to both.
