Personal coaching, deliverance, e-courses, training for ministry, and mentorships! https://www.kathydegrawministries.org/training/# Your mind was never meant to be a battlefield, yet many believers find themselves trapped in cycles of fear, anxiety, torment, and negative thought patterns. In this powerful episode of Prophetic Spiritual Warfare, Kathy DeGraw teaches how spiritual warfare, neuroscience, and biblical truth intersect to bring healing to the mind and brain. When the enemy influences your thoughts, it can impact your physical health, emotional stability, and neurological function. Stress, fear, and torment can reinforce destructive neural pathways and open doors to spiritual oppression that keeps believers stuck in cycles of negativity. But the good news is that your brain is not fixed—God created it to be renewed, restored, and transformed. In this teaching, Kathy explains how Scripture, spiritual authority, and practical warfare strategies help break mind strongholds, dismantle demonic pressure, and retrain the brain through renewed thinking. You will learn why taking thoughts captive is essential for healing and how spiritual warfare plays a critical role in neurological freedom. Kathy also shares details about her upcoming Neurological and Mental Healing Intensive in Grand Rapids, Michigan, where she will equip believers with practical tools to overcome mind-binding spirits, fear, anxiety, and mental torment while believing God for healing from neurological conditions. If you are battling fear, stress, depression, trauma, or negative thought cycles, this episode will empower you to reclaim your mind and walk in freedom. #spiritualwarfare #mindrenewal #neuroscienceandfaith #deliverance #healingthemind **Connect with Us** - Website: https://www.kathydegrawministries.org/ - Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/kathydegraw/ - Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kathydegraw/ Podcast - Subscribe to our YouTube channel and listen to Kathy's Podcast called Prophetic Spiritual Warfare, or on Spotify at https://open.spotify.com/show/3mYPPkP28xqcTzdeoucJZu or Apple podcasts at https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/prophetic-spiritual-warfare/id1474710499 **Recommended Resources:** - Receive a free prayer pdf on Warfare Prayer Declarations at https://kathydegrawministries.org/declarations-download - Kathy's training, mentoring and e-courses on Spiritual Warfare, Deliverance and the Prophetic: https://training.kathydegrawministries.org/ - Healed At Last ~ Overcome Sickness and Receive your Physical Healing: https://www.kathydegrawministries.org/healed-at-last/ - Mind Battles – Root Out Mental Triggers to Release Peace!: https://www.kathydegrawministries.org/product/mind-battles-pre-order-available-january-2023/ -Kathy has several books available on Amazon or kathydegrawministries.org **Support Kathy DeGraw Ministries:** - Give a one-time love offering or consider partnering with us for $15, $35, $75 or any amount!

Nathan Rust, Senior VP of Corporate Development, Salas O'Brien Salas O'Brien has completed 30+ mergers with a 100% success rate and 93% cumulative leadership retention.  That doesn't happen by accident. Nathan Rust, Senior VP of Corp Dev, explains the system behind those numbers. He shares how they screen bad fits on the first call, why their CEO meets every employee from acquired firms, and how a founder-driven sourcing flywheel attracts inbound deals. In this episode: You'll learn how they screen 200+ opportunities a year down to the ones worth closing, why their initial diligence list is 10 questions, how reverse due diligence works as a real screening tool, and what CEO-led integration meetings mean for retention. The core argument: Cultural fit isn't a soft metric. Believe it or not, it's the primary filter for deals. EBITDA tells you what you're buying, but people tell you whether it survives.  If you run corp dev at a people-intensive business and wonder why your post-close retention doesn't match your pre-close promises, this episode is for you. What You'll Learn in This Episode Why retention is one of the most overlooked risks in M&A How cultural compatibility is assessed during early conversations Why many buyers damage their reputation by retrading deals How equity rollovers align incentives between buyers and sellers Why simplicity in diligence often produces better results How direct outreach and referrals drive proprietary deal flow The role of reverse diligence in evaluating buyer credibility This episode is sponsored by M&A Science If you're struggling to retain founder-led leadership teams post-close, the Hub has frameworks for cultural integration and leadership retention to help you actually deliver on what you promised at signing.

Personal finance loves clean rules. Save 20%. Follow the 4% rule. Always max the 401(k). But real life rarely cooperates with tidy formulas. This week Joe Saul-Sehy, OG, and guest co-host CFP Anna Allem dig into the gap between the advice we hear and the messy decisions we actually face. What your savings rate really means. How often you should rethink inflation assumptions. Why a mysterious tax form after a backdoor Roth conversion might not be the crisis it first appears to be. Turns out some of the most stressful money moments simply come from misunderstanding how the system works. The conversation tackles real listener questions about whether their savings rate is good enough (spoiler: it depends entirely on the life you want), how to increase savings without feeling squeezed, when to update retirement projections for inflation, and whether contributing to a terrible 401(k) with no employer match still makes sense. Anna brings fresh perspective on the backdoor Roth tax scare that panics people every year, explaining why receiving a 1099-R is completely normal and usually harmless, plus the small IRS form that keeps your Roth strategy squared away. The crew also breaks down what's actually happening when a mutual fund splits (far less dramatic than the headlines suggest) and the one disclosure document every advisor must provide that contains important clues about fees, conflicts, and discipline history. Down in the basement, Doug delivers trivia about a document most investors rarely request but absolutely should. Somewhere between inflation math, tax forms, and the occasional rant about terrible retirement plan providers, the crew reminds us that personal finance isn't about memorizing rules. It's about understanding how the pieces fit together, even when the paperwork looks scary. What You'll Walk Away With: • Why your savings rate isn't a universal scoreboard and how to judge it based on the life you actually want • A low friction strategy for increasing savings over time without feeling budget squeezed • The expense audit trick that quickly reveals whether your spending still matches your priorities • A smarter way to adjust retirement projections for inflation and how often those numbers deserve a second look • Why the famous 4% rule should guide your thinking but never run your retirement plan • How to evaluate whether contributing to a frustrating 401(k) plan still makes sense without employer match • What's really happening when a mutual fund splits and why the headline sounds more dramatic than reality • Why receiving a 1099-R after a backdoor Roth conversion is completely normal and usually harmless • The small IRS form that keeps your Roth strategy squared away and prevents tax headaches later • The one disclosure document every advisor must provide and the important clues it contains about fees and conflicts This Episode Is For You If: • Money decisions suddenly feel like they carry more weight • You're tired of clean money rules that don't fit your messy real life • You're ready to understand how the pieces fit together instead of just memorizing formulas For many people in their 40s, retirement planning gets real, inflation has reshaped expectations, and the margin for error feels smaller. The danger is relying on simple financial rules without understanding the assumptions behind them. When you know how these tools actually work, you can make smarter decisions and stop stressing about the parts that aren't problems in the first place. Question for You: What's one money rule you've been following without really understanding why? Drop it in the comments or The Basement Facebook group because Anna, Joe, and OG might tackle it in a future episode.

I've been thinking a lot about how we talk about food, bodies, and health with our kids…and with ourselves. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Lauren Hartman to explore how parents can model kindness, trust their instincts, and help kids develop a healthy relationship with food without shame or rules. We talk about movement, social media, high sugar foods, and the small daily choices that shape how children experience their bodies. Whether you're navigating mealtimes, worried about eating habits, or just want practical ways to support your child's well-being, this conversation is full of insights you can actually use. We also touch on early intervention, balancing nutrition with life's realities, and why rest, self-compassion, and awareness can make all the difference. → Leave Us A Voice Message!  Topics Discussed: → How do I spot teen eating disorders? → Picky eating vs ARFID → What causes eating disorders in teens? → How should parents talk about food? → When should I worry about eating?

Trauma might be running your life. You just don't realize it.

Tom Griffiths directs both the Computational Cognitive Science Lab and the Princeton Laboratory for Artificial Intelligence at Princeton University. He's been on brain inspired before to talk about his previous book Algorithms to Live By: The Computer Science of Human Decisions, which he co-wrote with Brian Christian. Today he's here to talk about his new book, The Laws of Thought: The Quest for a Mathematical Theory of the Mind. In this book, Tom explains how the three pillars of logic, neural networks, and probability theory complement each other to explain cognition, arguing we are on the doorstep to settling what mathematical principles - the so-called "laws of thought" - underly our cognition. So we discuss a little bit about a lot of things, including the concepts themselves, the people who have generated and worked on those concepts. I should also mentioned, Tom recorded a bunch of his interviews with people he writes about, and he's edited and polished those into a podcast called the Cognition Project, which I have enjoyed after reading the book, and I think you'd enjoy it either before or after you read the book.

Where do you turn when the sheer panic and pain of personal betrayal make you just want to grow wings like a dove and fly far, far away from it all? In this devotional on Psalm 55, we walk through David’s desperate prayer of anguish—a Maskil written in the agonizing wake of being stabbed in the back by a close confidant, his top advisor Ahithophel. We shift our focus from the paralyzing sting of emotional trauma to the beautiful, messy progression of biblical lament, recognizing how David moves from panic and a desire to escape, straight into petition and renewed trust. We explore what it means to cast our crushing burdens upon the eternal God, uncovering the profound realization that while human friends might miss our texts or calls, the Lord hears our complaints evening, morning, and noon. We move past the instinct to simply run from our pain to the deeper truth: that God gives us full permission to process our darkest grief, anxiety, and frustration directly at His feet. Join host Jaime on the Praying Christian Women podcast for a session of spiritual recalibration and honest lament. If you are navigating the heartbreak of broken trust, feeling overwhelmed by division within your community, or simply need a gentle reminder to take your problems to God before anyone else, this episode offers a powerful shift in perspective.Come ready to lay down your heaviest anxieties, pray for unity within the body of Christ, and declare the unshakeable, sustaining power of the Lord over your life.

One of my biggest goals this year is to become a more interesting person by learning more intentionally. Instead of letting free time disappear into scrolling or passive entertainment, I started building something I call a monthly curriculum - a framework that helps me explore new ideas, develop hobbies, and be more intentional about how I spend my time. In this episode, I walk through my March curriculum, including the theme I'm focusing on, the nonfiction book I'm reading, the hobby I'm trying, and the small lifestyle upgrades I'm making.I also share lessons from my February curriculum and how you can realistically incorporate something like this into your life even if you work full time.In this episode we cover:

Donny Osmond joins the "Follow Him" podcast to discuss the biblical figure Joseph of Egypt, a character he famously portrayed for over 2,000 shows in the Andrew Lloyd Webber musical. Osmond shares the spiritual promptings that led him to audition for and win the role, and he details the profound personal and spiritual connection he developed with the character. He discusses the powerful lessons he learned from Joseph's life about maintaining faith through extreme adversity, the importance of staying true to one's covenants, and the process of forgiveness and reconciliation. Osmond relates Joseph's trials and triumphs to his own experiences in his life and career, emphasizing the need to trust in God's plan and timing.YOUTUBE:https://youtu.be/k4GB3_BcALsFREE PDF DOWNLOADS OF followHIM QUOTE BOOKSNew Testament: https://tinyurl.com/PodcastNTBookOld Testament: https://tinyurl.com/PodcastOTBookBook of Mormon: https://tinyurl.com/PodcastBMBook  WEEKLY NEWSLETTER https://tinyurl.com/followHIMnewsletter  SOCIAL MEDIA Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/followHIMpodcast Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/followhimpodcastTimecode:0:00 Introduction and Welcome1:29 Donny's history with Joseph - 2,000 shows over 6 years14:16 Who is Donny Osmond? - Background and bio16:40 How Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat was created21:09 Donny's audition story - "You're my Joseph"23:57 The famous high note story with Andrew Lloyd Webber27:09 Meeting his wife Debbie - stealing her from his brother Jay29:41 Is Joseph one of the greatest stories ever told?32:12 Joseph's integrity with Potiphar's wife35:00 Donny's dark times and criticism in his career39:44 The coat, armor, and cup.45:10 Elvis Presley calling the Osmond home45:43 Family betrayal and forgiveness themes53:52 Living the character every night - "Close Every Door"59:09 Meeting prophets - President Kimball and President Hinckley1:00:26 Representing the church around the world1:02:30 Music's power to convey scripture and emotion1:05:10 Andrew Lloyd Webber's inspiration1:11:11 Personal stories and friendship1:13:19 The Masked Singer as the Peacock1:17:08 Joseph's complete forgiveness of his brothers1:22:31 Never compromising standards - performing for General Authorities1:23:44 Family activity suggestion - watch and discuss principles1:27:49 Final message - faith in turbulent times1:29:47 Closing thoughts on forgiveness and the AtonementThanks to the follow HIM team:Steve & Shannon Sorensen: Cofounder, Executive Producer, SponsorDavid & Verla Sorensen: SponsorsDr. Hank Smith: Co-hostJohn Bytheway: Co-hostDavid Perry: ProducerKyle Nelson: Marketing, SponsorLisa Spice: Client Relations, Editor, Show NotesJamie Neilson: Social Media, Graphic DesignWill Stoughton: Video EditorKrystal Roberts: Translation Team, English & French Transcripts, WebsiteAriel Cuadra: Spanish Transcripts"Let Zion in Her Beauty Rise" by Marshall McDonaldhttps://www.marshallmcdonaldmusic.com

Trauma does not just live in your memories—it lives in your brain. In this powerful teaching, Kathy DeGraw reveals how trauma creates neural pathways, opens doors to torment and fear, and how the power of deliverance and renewing the mind can bring true healing and neurological restoration.

Personal coaching, deliverance, e-courses, training for ministry, and mentorships! https://www.kathydegrawministries.org/training/# In this episode of Prophetic Spiritual Warfare, Kathy DeGraw dives deep into the powerful connection between neuroscience, trauma, and spiritual deliverance. Many believers struggle with repeated cycles of fear, rejection, torment, and anxiety because trauma has created neurological survival loops in the brain. When painful experiences are repeatedly processed through negative thoughts, the brain forms neural pathways that expect fear, rejection, or trauma to happen again. These patterns can keep people trapped in mental strongholds and emotional pain. Kathy explains how the brain learns what it repeatedly experiences and how trauma can wire the mind for survival instead of faith. But through the power of the Holy Spirit, deliverance, and renewing the mind with God's truth, those neurological pathways can be retrained. As spiritual oppression is removed and truth replaces lies, new pathways of faith, hope, and peace begin to form. This episode also explores how demonic oppression often attaches to unresolved wounds and emotional pain, reinforcing negative thought patterns. Kathy shares practical strategies for healing trauma, identifying root causes through the Holy Spirit, journaling through emotional triggers, and partnering with God to renew the mind. You will also hear about Kathy's upcoming Neurological Healing and Mental Health Training, where she will teach how to address conditions such as autism, ADD, dementia, Parkinson's, and other neurological and mental health challenges from both a biblical and neuroscience perspective. This intensive training will equip believers, ministry teams, and families with powerful tools to bring healing and freedom to themselves and others. If you are battling trauma, fear, torment, anxiety, or mental strongholds, this teaching will help you understand how God designed the brain to heal and how deliverance and mind renewal can bring lasting transformation. #neuroscienceandfaith #traumahealing #deliveranceministry #renewthemind #spiritualwarfare  **Connect with Us** - Website: https://www.kathydegrawministries.org/ - Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/kathydegraw/ - Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kathydegraw/ Podcast - Subscribe to our YouTube channel and listen to Kathy's Podcast called Prophetic Spiritual Warfare, or on Spotify at https://open.spotify.com/show/3mYPPkP28xqcTzdeoucJZu or Apple podcasts at https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/prophetic-spiritual-warfare/id1474710499 **Recommended Resources:** - Receive a free prayer pdf on Warfare Prayer Declarations at https://kathydegrawministries.org/declarations-download - Kathy's training, mentoring and e-courses on Spiritual Warfare, Deliverance and the Prophetic: https://training.kathydegrawministries.org/ - Healed At Last ~ Overcome Sickness and Receive your Physical Healing: https://www.kathydegrawministries.org/healed-at-last/ - Mind Battles – Root Out Mental Triggers to Release Peace!: https://www.kathydegrawministries.org/product/mind-battles-pre-order-available-january-2023/ -Kathy has several books available on Amazon or kathydegrawministries.org **Support Kathy DeGraw Ministries:** - Give a one-time love offering or consider partnering with us for $15, $35, $75 or any amount!

"... we shall find it difficult to estimate the moral power which a single individual, trained to practice what he teaches, may acquire in his own circle, in the course of years. While the Scriptures are thrown upon the world, as if the common property of any who choose to appropriate them, he is, in fact, the legitimate interpreter of them, and none other; the Inspired Word being but a dead letter (ordinarily considered), except as transmitted from one mind to another." St. John Henry Newman's Oxford Sermons, delivered during his time as an Anglican preacher at the University of Oxford, were instrumental in shaping the Oxford Movement, which sought to revive High Church traditions within the Church of England and ultimately led to many conversions to Catholicism. In addition to the profound influence these sermons had on both Anglican and Catholic theology, they also bore a personal significance for Newman's own conversion to Catholicism years later. These fifteen sermons, though deeply interconnected in theme and insight, are not sequential in nature; rather, each stands on its own as a distinct and self-contained reflection on faith and reason. Newman lays the groundwork for themes developed in later works, such as Grammar of Assent and Essay on the Development of Christian Doctrine. In this fifth sermon, Newman contends that Christian truth spreads and endures in the world primarily through the personal character of holy individuals, rather than through the influence of institutions or intellectual arguments alone.

In this episode of Anchored by the Sword Podcast, I'm joined by Willow Weston, whose brand-new book Collide: Running Into Healing When Life Hands You Hurt released today, March 10. Willow shares her powerful story of how God met her in the middle of deep pain and completely transformed her life.Growing up in a difficult environment with an alcoholic parent, Willow carried years of unspoken hurt and brokenness. By the time she reached college, the weight of those secrets had become overwhelming. But God had a different plan for her life—one that began with a “crazy Christian lady” named Cindy who simply invited Willow into her home, listened to her story, and introduced her to Jesus.Through that relationship, Willow began asking deeper questions about faith, purpose, and healing. At 21 years old, she surrendered her life to Christ, and everything changed.In this conversation, Willow shares how her personal healing journey led to the creation of Collide Ministries, which now serves thousands of women each year.Together we talk about: • Why avoiding pain actually causes more pain • The difference between asking God for healing and participating in healing • How unresolved hurt can impact our relationships, families, and even our physical health • The importance of safe community and letting others carry our burdens • Why you don't have to have everything figured out before God can use your storyWillow reminds us of a powerful truth:Jesus never avoided pain—He ran straight toward it.And if you've been avoiding your own wounds, today might be the day God is inviting you to step toward healing.If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure where to start, this episode is for you.Your healing matters.And you are worthy of it today.Bio:Willow Weston is an author, a speaker, a podcast host, and the founder of Collide, a ministry impacting women nationwide. With decades of experience, Willow brings passion and truth, sharing her own journey of pain to inspire others to invite Jesus into their brokenness so they, too, can experience healing. Willow leads conferences that empower, heal, and transform women. She has authored several Bible studies, including The Birds and the Lilies; Personal and Powerful; Go Ahead; Yes, You; and Collide and Converse.Willow loves telling stories and inviting others to share theirs. She's a spelling bee champ but loses miserably in Trivial Pursuit. She can throw a mean dinner party but is a criminal at the local library. She has a hippie name and once lived on a school bus as a kid. Willow frequents coffee shops more than she'd like to admit and sits across from hurting people in the hope that they will find help for their pain. She uses china on Wednesdays and loves making the ordinary feel extraordinary. Willow battles insecurity and old wounds every day, just like you probably do too.She collided with Jesus in college, and He became her direction, her healer, her hope, and her rescuer. Jesus met her in her brokenness and has used her there too. She's been married for more than 30 years and has two kids who teach her more about God and life than she could ever teach them. Willow is as real as you get, obsessed with hosting parties, coffee, the beach, and a good, good story.Anchor Verse:Deuteronomy 30:3Connect with Willow:Website: https://www.willowweston.comMinistry Website: https://wecollide.netIG: https://www.instagram.com/willowanneweston***We love hearing from you!

On this episode of HALO Talks, host Pete Moore sits down with Chris Mirabile, founder of NOVOS, for an inspiring conversation about the science of longevity, the importance of preventative health, and the journey from personal health crises to building an impactful company in the supplement space. Chris shares his compelling story of surviving a brain tumor at age 16 which launched his lifelong passion for optimizing long-term health, and reveals how that experience shaped his unique view on wellness and aging. The conversation goes into the challenges of building credibility in a noisy market, and the rigorous scientific process (and team) behind NOVOS' approach. Expect to hear insights on biological aging versus chronological age, the steps NOVOS takes with clinical trials and advisory board selection, strategies for building a mission-driven company, and how to stay authentic amid the wellness industry's hype. Whether you're an entrepreneur, a health enthusiast, or just curious about the future of aging, this episode offers a blend of personal conviction, actionable business advice, and leading-edge science. Regarding a recent Mayo Clinic endorsement Chris says, "Some of the practitioners, including the head of longevity medicine at Mayo Clinic Arizona said, 'I want to recommend this to my patients. I want it readily available at the Mayo Clinic store.' So that, that is something that is really symbolic." Key themes discussed Personal journey inspiring longevity focus Evolution of health terminology: Wellness, anti-aging, longevity Human psychology, short-term vs. long-term health goals Building a respected scientific advisory board Competition in the longevity and supplement industry Scientific validation and clinical trials for NOVOS Measuring and reducing biological age with epigenetic tests A Few Key Takeaways:  1.Personal Health Crisis Sparked a Lifelong Passion: Chris shared how being diagnosed with a brain tumor at age 16 completely reshaped his outlook on health, shifting his priorities from aesthetics and performance to long-term health, disease avoidance, and optimal well-being. 2. The Language of Longevity Matters: Both Pete and Chris discussed the evolution of words used in the industry. Mirabile isn't a fan of "anti-aging," and prefers "longevity," emphasizing a holistic, forward-looking approach to health focusing on long-term outcomes rather than quick fixes. 3. Bridging Science and Supplements with Credibility: Chris described how NOVOS set itself apart by investing years into R&D, building relationships with renowned scientists (like Dr. George Church), and producing clinical trials for their products, standing in contrast to the more hype-driven supplement companies. 4. The Importance of Short-term and Long-term Benefits: A key insight Chris stressed is that compliance is crucial. NOVOS products are formulated to offer both immediate benefits (so users feel a difference) and actual long-term health impacts, supporting both "healthspan" and "lifespan." 5. Biological Age Testing and Results: NOVOS offers an epigenetic biological age test called Novos Age, which Mirabile says is one of the most scientifically grounded tools available. Initial data suggests that consistent use of NOVOS supplements can help users "slow down" or even reduce their biological aging rate.

Im Jahr 2014 wird Deutschland Fußball-Weltmeister, aber sonst ist die Lage auf der Welt, vorsichtig ausgedrückt: schwierig. In Deutschland warnt das Bundeskriminalamt u. a. davor, dass die Zahl der islamistischen Gefährder deutlich ansteigt. All das beunruhigt die deutsche Politik und die Geheimdienste. Die Sicherheitsbehörden sollen so schnell wie möglich mehr Geld und vor allem mehr Personal bekommen. Dazu greift das Bundesamt für Verfassungsschutz erstmals zu einem für die Behörde ungewöhnlichen Mittel: Zeitungsannoncen. Genau so eine Stellenanzeige weckt das Interesse von „Thomas”, einem Familienvater aus einer Kleinstadt. Möglicherweise träumt er davon, Verbrecher zu jagen oder in schnellen Autos umher zu rasen. Er bewirbt sich – und schafft es tatsächlich rein in den Inlandsnachrichtendienst. Damit beginnt ein neues Kapitel – sowohl für „Thomas”, als auch für den Verfassungsschutz. „Dark Matters – Geheimnisse der Geheimdienste“ erzählt die Geschichte eines Mannes, der sein Leben etwas aufregender machen wollte und schließlich nicht nur sein eigenes Leben vollkommen verändert hat. Und wenn ihr mehr darüber erfahren wollt, wie so ein Quereinstieg in die Agentenlaufbahn konkret abläuft, welche Aufgaben es gibt und was man mitbringen sollte, hört die begleitende Hintergrundfolge „Welche Jobs gibt es beim Verfassungsschutz?”. Und das ist „Dark Matters”: Eva-Maria Lemke öffnet im Podcast die Tür zu einer Welt, die eigentlich im Verborgenen bleiben soll – Woche für Woche mit einer neuen Geschichte, die zeigt, wie Nachrichtendienste arbeiten. In der vierten Staffel geht es um eine neue Zeit, in der alte Fragen von Krieg und Frieden, von Verbündeten und Feinden nicht mehr eindeutig zu beantworten sind. Wie stellen sich Staaten, Dienste und Agenten darauf ein? Die ARD-Geheimdienstexperten Michael Götschenberg und Holger Schmidt geben Antworten. Eine neue Folge „Dark Matters – Geheimnisse der Geheimdienste” gibt es mittwochs – immer zuerst in der ARD Sounds App. Und noch ein Tipp zum Weiterhören: Im Podcast „Im Visier – Verbrecherjagd in Berlin und Brandenburg” präsentiert euch Uwe Madel aktuelle Kriminalfälle aus der Region und Janna Falkenstein und Florian Prokop ergänzen das Ganze noch mit spannenden historischen Verbrechen aus der Zeit der Weimarer Republik. „Im Visier” findet ihr in der ARD Sounds App. https://www.ardaudiothek.de/sendung/im-visier-verbrecherjagd-in-berlin-und-brandenburg/urn:ard:show:35c2ce5b4dc78575/

Rosemary Barnes: And that’s US dollars too.  Matthew Stead: Real dollars.  Allen Hall: Green backs.  Rosemary Barnes: That’s like three and a half times what our event cost. What warmer cost. If you do the conversion  Allen Hall: yes.  Rosemary Barnes: And you get access to what? An exhibition and all of a whole bunch, a variety of amazing, informative, technical topics included with that ticket price, right?  Allen Hall: No. You get access to the exhibition, they will feed you some, uh, enchiladas and some, uh, free beer, but all the technical talks are extra. You have to pay. Uh, a couple hundred dollars  Rosemary Barnes: enchiladas and beer are a must have that everyone obviously wants, but talking about wind energy, totally optional. Nobody. Now, obviously not everybody is gonna wanna talk about wind energy, [00:02:00] so that’s, that’s an extra ticket that you need for that one. Allen Hall: Well, in order to go to the, I would call them technical talks, you have to pay for those. They have an A space in the middle of the convention where they’re doing what they call powered cast. Which are kind of modeled on podcasts, uh, that are sort of a produced thing where they have a panel up there. It’s similar what to where you’d done in Melbourne with Woma, but not with real technical people. The more polishing people. That’s what I saw. I don’t know a lot of the names and I’m pretty used to, to recognizing names of wind and it looks like to be a lot more policy people not. Blade experts or people like that. Rosemary Barnes: I’m a little bit confused because it’s very different to, you know, I love to complain about the Australian wind energy events, but this sounds very different to the way that it’s run here. Like usually at the exhibitions, the exhibitors pay like a bunch of money to be there, and what they want is people to come see it. So [00:03:00] usually here the exhibition is. Free to attend because you are there to be advertised to, you know, like it’s not some like amazing, valuable thing to you. It’s super valuable to the exhibitors. That’s why they have to pay, you know, $10,000 plus to, to be there. Right, but you are saying that they’re, they’re charging the, the attendees are, they’re giving the exhibition space away for free then? Allen Hall: No, the exhibition space costs a tremendous amount of money for a little tiny space. I’m actually in our slot, we share. A slot because the prices are so high, we’re sharing it with AC 8 83 who we love and with C and C onsite, who also we love. So it’s a good combination ’cause we like one another. We’re fun to hang out with, but it’s probably a nine by nine space. Uh, and then you have to pay for carpet and all the furniture that happens inside of that space, you can easily spend. $10,000 on a salon.  Matthew Stead: Question for you, Allen. So, um, how [00:04:00] does, how does the industry foster, you know, new, new technology, new companies, you know, growth of the industry, new ideas, so, you know, how does this event, um, foster those sorts of things? Allen Hall: It doesn’t because it’s really, it’s pay to play as Rosemary has pointed out a number of times and is frustrated by. In order to get heard, you have to pay to one, have a booth, or if you want to get up on stage, it costs money. It’s, it’s not a small amount, by the way. So, uh, if you’re a new company, you got a great idea. You even have traction. Say you’re TRL seven plus and you want to connect with operators, it’s hard to do that here. Uh, the operators tend to be a little gun shy and, and they’re. Off on the side. I, I know some of them obviously, ’cause I, I know who they are, but it isn’t like, uh, the operators are walking around necessarily talking to all the exhibitors. That’s not how this [00:05:00] works. What generally is happening is the operators are talking, uh, to people that are selling products in these conference rooms on the side. So those things are completely off the show floor. It’s not the best situation. Like, I gotta admit, I’ve been to a lot of other conferences like in aerospace. Those tend to be a little more free flowing.  Rosemary Barnes: It’s interesting ’cause it’s like, obviously you go to the events because everybody goes to the event and I’m sure you’ve had some great conversations. Um, however, you don’t need to go inside. Like when you go to one of these huge events, you’re trapped inside a windowless room for all day, every day for several days in a row. Like, why does it need, why does it need to be there if they’re discourage, actively discouraging people from going to any presentations? Why couldn’t you just grab a bunch of friends, you know, put on an open invite, Hey, we’re all gonna the beach this week. Let’s go talk wind energy at the beach. Like, I, I don’t understand why we need to subject ourselves to this sort of, this sort of event. Like I [00:06:00] just, it it’s gotten out outta control, don’t you think?  Allen Hall: It has. I would never talk wind energy while I’m at the beach. I go, that’s probably one place where I’m not talking wind energy, but there are other nice places you could be. To talk about what’s happening in the industry and, and that’s one of the frustrating pieces about this is, although I love a lot of the people that are here, it’s not a great place to share new ideas or to learn something new. It’s, it’s mostly a, a meet and greet and catch up a reunion in a sense. Of, Hey, we’re the survivors. That’s it. Part of it is that feel right.  Rosemary Barnes: It’s pretty hard though if you are not like, you know, everybody you need to talk to. And I started doing the same thing, like at the um, one, one of the recent events or one of the events last year in, in Australia. I was so fed up with it the year before. I’m like, I’m not giving them any money this year. I was at least allowed to go to the exhibition for free at that event. So, you know, at least that’s something, but I mean, I barely even did that. Anyway. What I did was I set up at a cafe near to the event and just, I just [00:07:00]scheduled meetings like back to back for two days. Um, everyone just came to the cafe. But that’s ’cause I know everybody, right? Like, it’s like someone that’s new to the industry can get nothing out of these events. Now it seems like it’s just, it’s so, it’s so sad. Like where, how, how are you going? Like, you know, people brand new to the industry. You used to be able to go to an event and just be like, okay, I’m gonna just have information overload for two or three days, meet a bunch of great people and I’ll come away feeling like I’m part of this industry. I just can’t imagine. That happening at the event that you are describing, that someone would, would show up and, you know, come away knowing a lot more about the industry and with, with a bunch of useful connections. Am I right?  Allen Hall: Uh, I think you’re right. There’s were a couple of people that I ran into that were new to the industry, trying to start a service provider or repair business, generally speaking that, or a drone business that we’re trying to get into the, the industry and we’re reaching out and talking to people and. The thing about [00:08:00] wind is when you actually get ahold of somebody, they will help you. It’s, it’s very, uh, open. What do you do? What are you trying to do? Wherever you talk, who you talk to, here’s some names that will happen, but it is daunting because there’s a lot of people here. You don’t know anybody, and there’s no way to really introduce them. I think that one of the things that, uh, American C Clean powered. Did, uh, that I noticed was they had like a first timers reunion space, so, or a meeting space so that it had some beach balls and a little Tahiti hut or whatever those tiki hut or whatever that was where you could kind of hang out because you knew. But I’m not sure that’s the best way to do that. I think, you know, American clean power could do a much better job of knowing who’s first time and connecting them. If the industry’s gonna grow, you need to be taking in new people and new ideas. To it. The only way you’re gonna be able to do that is if you actively make it happen. Matthew Stead: Did you learn anything new [00:09:00] so far?  Allen Hall: Not new. Uh, I, because we’re doing the podcast and we’re recorded several episodes in the last two days, I was able to ask specific questions like, what are you working on? What’s new? What’s coming out? And that’s the way to get to those answers. But if you’re walking the exhibit four, you would not see a lot of new technology and. Three years ago, I think four years ago, especially like during COVID, there was some pretty cool technology out on the show floor, uh, but not so much Today, the industry’s matured and, and it’s a tough industry to, to survive in. So what you generally see is companies that have been around 3, 4, 5 years that have made it, that are profitable, that are making good and income, and are providing a service and have sustained businesses, that’s what’s here today. Yolanda Padron: I think that a CP, the intent behind events like the one you’re, and Allen and the one we’ve, the ones we’ve all been to are, the intent is great, but the [00:10:00] execution isn’t super great. Not just from the the point of view of people coming in from new to the industry and wanting to start an ISP or something, but just from the owner operator. Point of view, you know, you’re, if you have to pay to go to specific talks or to go to technical talks that you don’t really know how much they’ll benefit you until basically the end of it. Once you see the information that’s gone into it and the practicality of everything that they, they’re talking about, and then when you’re walking in the showroom like four, like it’s a little bit daunting sometimes. There’s hundreds of companies. Sitting around in kind of like a maze, right? And it’s not always like, oh, you need lightning protection. Like that’s that area. Or you need better locks for your o and m buildings or for your towers or something. It’s that section like you’re just walking around everywhere. And then just. It kind of turns [00:11:00] into, like sometimes it can turn into just a game of like, if you’re going with a lot of colleagues, like a kind of a drinking day or a day to just see who can collect more freebies. Like I remember one year we had a group chat of like, oh, like every time you saw something cool that was like a, a merchandise thing, like you would put it in the group chat, like E 46 has this. And then we would all go and get it and it was. I don’t think that’s the intent behind what, what we wanted to do. It really wasn’t what we saw at oma if we’re being completely honest.  Matthew Stead: What I’m hearing is that there’s a really strong need in the US for another event. Is that, is that what I’m hearing?  Allen Hall: I think there needs to be a real technical event run by people who are technical experts. I think that’s it because there are a lot of new solutions out there, but you’re not gonna find them at OMX. That’s just not the place. Now, I’m sure a CP would dispute that and that’s fine. They [00:12:00] have their own opinion. But I think having attended this for several years and a CP and a number of other, uh, conferences in wins, there’s a small subset that are sharing solutions. It’s small and maybe there is need for one in America. It’s hard saying, Matthew, I. I think that maybe there’s is a time and place for it. I’m not sure America’s ready for it in, in a broader scope, but maybe something small. Maybe that’s the way to start off, is to do something small. Bring in the people we know and love from around the world have, go back to Rosemary’s point. Maybe we do something by the, by the pool or by the ocean. Maybe we do talk wind energy for, for an afternoon.  Rosemary Barnes: I understand why you can’t, um, have an event at. A resort. And it was suggested actually to me a couple of times, like people when we were organizing Wilma, why is this in Melbourne? Why isn’t this in the Maldives? Or you know, some, something like that. And the [00:13:00] one of the reasons like for us, ’cause in our Melbourne event it’s a, you know, it’s a very low cost event. We don’t make any money from it. It’s small. At least half of wind energy People in Australia are living in Melbourne, so it’s very, you know, easy for them to go to that it doesn’t, it doesn’t cost much or take much time. So that was that reason. But I think that, you know, more broadly, like say we did a global event and we put it in the, in the malice or in Fiji or Hawaii or whatever, like, people aren’t gonna get that approved from their managers, right? So even though you know, you’ve spent, I don’t know how much the technical sessions were, but by the time that you’ve gotten to a CP, if you had to. Even, you know, fly there in Australian hotel for a few nights, like it’s gonna be, you know, four grand or something. You can get to a nice location, probably an all-inclusive resort for a week, somewhere nice for similar money. Like you would spend more time having quality conversations and it would be, you know, nice and enjoyable, but [00:14:00] your manager is never gonna approve that. So I think that’s the challenge. To find somewhere that’s like nice and conducive to being relaxed and open, but that doesn’t sound like. So obviously a junket that no one will get approval to go to it. That’s the, that’s the challenge.  Matthew Stead: Um, just this week we got the feedback from the WMA conference. So we got, um, some of the results from the survey and I think, uh, probably the key thing to me was that we achieved 4.6 out of five, um, star rating. Um, everyone gave it a four or a five. And we know people that give things four out of five actually mean five. So I think we did really well. So, uh, and the feedback was also, um, you know, the technical content, but people want more, more and more, uh, technical content and, and the interaction with people. Rosemary Barnes: That’s a really, a really key thing to get feedback on if there are. Experts or categories of information that you would like to see covered that haven’t been, because I think, like we talk a lot about how, what the [00:15:00]problems are with a pay to play kind of model where speakers pay and get up and give a sales pitch and you know, there’s a lot of problems with that. But then when it’s the other way around and you know, we’re choosing speakers that we know are good, then you fall into the risk of having it become cliquey where it’s just, you know, like all our friends over and over again. It’s uh, like hard for us to both vet the quality and bring in people that we don’t know. So that’s where the outside feedback is gonna make that a lot better. Um, and it takes a long time, you know, you do, ’cause you, you do need to get to know a speaker before you can decide whether they’re gonna get up in the acne. You don’t sell at you for half an hour when they were supposed to, you know, do something informative. So, would love to hear that feedback.  Matthew Stead: I think the proof is in the pudding because, uh, at for woma, no one said that they were unlikely to attend.  Allen Hall: Oh, I, I would hate to see what the numbers are gonna be for OMS this year. Uh, ’cause you know, you know why I say that? Because a lot of people that have exhibited in the past do not have a booth this year, and they’re walking [00:16:00] around the show. And to me that’s an alarm signal. They should have a booth. They have good things to talk about. They’re a successful company. They’re doing great things to win, but they feel like this is just too much. It’s too much. Eventually you reach too much. I think we’re there.  Rosemary Barnes: I think it’s been a really good, like, uh, a big event with an exhibition can be a real money maker. And for, you know, like, uh, assuming that SAP uses this. The money that they make from this event to deliver services for the American Wind Industry. Uh, I mean, you, you know, you can probably argue about how well or not they do that. I don’t have an opinion ’cause I’m not in America. But, you know, like, I, I’m not saying that that’s not the, um, a, a noble goal and a good thing to, for the business to be doing. However, I think that it, that you can overshoot and, you know, so you can make a, a bunch of money for a few years. You know, you’ve got a good reputation for your event. You’ve got everybody comes to it. You can charge squillions to exhibitors. You can charge squillions more to speakers. You can even start charging people to watch the speakers who have [00:17:00] paid to be there. Probably, I don’t, I don’t actually know in this case, my assumption. Um, but at some point. Like you’ve cottoned on that, hey, it’s not actually worth paying extra for the, um, you know, to go watch the speakers. And the last one of these, you know, similar Australian events I was at, I was like, Hey, it’s not actually worth me paying to go into there because I can get all the benefits by just being near to it, like then. Once you don’t have heaps and heaps of people moving through, then exhibitors don’t wanna pay $10,000 to be there. Um, and so like, it’s just, it’s not sustainable to run the event like that. And that’s what I don’t think that, um, a lot of these event organization companies, especially the ones that aren’t run by an industry body, um, the ones that are just run by a company who exist to make money off events. You know, like they’re not, I don’t think that they’re planning these events to be sustainable in the long term and to improve the industry.  Matthew Stead: Can I ask, um, a question for Yolanda and Allen. Um, so assuming this money for a CP [00:18:00] ends up as lobbying money, do you think lobbying at the moment actually helps? Allen Hall: Here’s the feeling about it on the floor, and I haven’t talked to everybody here clearly. But the significant percentage I had talked to thinks that the policy efforts have not borne fruit, and that in some aspects, uh, they have increased the tension. Whether they’ve intentionally have done that or not, I don’t know. But I think the feeling on the floor here, the last two days has been the industry is in a quote unquote downturn or a pause, and they’re waiting till 2028 to see what happens. That’s not the answer I wanted to hear. And also at the state level, I think, uh, the amount of policy changes that are happening are not pro wind, pro solar or pro best, except maybe in a couple of states. So, uh, you feel like although [00:19:00] American clean power is on a national level, you will also like them to be at a state level, helping move some things forward and stop some of the prohibitions that are happening, or to get some of the permits issued. That’s one of the things that popped up today, talking to someone in the know as that permits are hard to get hold of in some states. Well, American Clean Power is supposed to be helping with that. I’m not sure that they are, at least if they are, you can’t see anything visible happening. From the outside, which is a shame. That’s really a shame. So, you know where we go from here? I, I, I’m kind of in Rosemary’s camp. I had no idea. Uh, next year gonna be really interesting. I, I don’t know what the numbers of attendees are. Uh, I’m guessing a couple thousand people are here. I’m guessing, let’s just say it’s 2000 people. I may be off plus or minus. Well, not on the negative side. It’s more than a thousand people here, but it’s not 10,000. That’s for sure.  Yolanda Padron: I think that, uh, someone at Woma summed it up really [00:20:00] well when they said that, um, we need to shift the conversation from this is the right thing to do to this, is this, we should make this to be cost effective and it should be the obvious decision to make. Right? Just from a financial standpoint. Uh, and I think, I think that’s right from my, uh. Personal interactions with a lot of people in dc I think that lobbying really helps regardless of the political party that one is affiliated to. Um, just, just the way that sometimes our, our system seems to. I not, not to say that anything’s negative, I think it’s, I mean, it’s just the, the way things pan out, uh, oftentimes in the [00:21:00] us. Um, yeah, I mean, I’ve, I’ve heard from. From both sides.  Allen Hall: Well, to Yolanda’s point, I would say we don’t belong to American clean power because one, it’s expensive and as a small business, does it make sense as the changing policy that helps me? The answer to that historically has been no. It doesn’t mean it’s not gonna happen in the future. I think a lot of. Companies of our size are saying the same thing. There are some that have been here a lot longer that have knew a CP before it was a CP when it was a, a slightly different organization and they’ve continued on on, on some level just I think because they’re familiar with it. But I think the newcomers are having a heart attack. And I would consider me to be a newcomer that we’ve been in wind since about 2012 or 2013, so we’ve been in it quite a while at this point. But there’s some old guard here. The new. The new players though, I think are struggling. I think there’s very few new companies that are flashy. Like we saw in San Antonio a [00:22:00] couple of years ago at American Clean Power. We’re like, wow, there are some boosts here. And man, there’s some firepower happening and some really good marketing and some new products and new ideas. That’s not. That’s not here. Not, not this year. Delamination and bottom line, failures and blades are difficult problems to detect early. These hidden issues can cost you millions in repairs and lost energy production. C-I-C-N-D-T are specialists to detect these critical flaws before they become a. Expensive burdens. Their non-destructive test technology penetrates deep to blade materials to find voids and cracks.

So visit cic ndt.com because catching blade problems early will save you millions.[00:23:00] Denmark has long been the home of the wind industry, but now our proposed new wealth taxes threatening to push one of its most prominent executives out the door. And Henrik Anderson, chief executive officer of Vestas says he will leave Denmark rather than pay the new tax, even if it costs him tens of millions of Broner and exit fees. Uh, Anderson earned 32 million Kroger last year, and estimates he pays an effective tax rate of 60% already. He argues Denmark already leads Europe in income taxation and adding a wealth tax crosses the line and he, if he goes, he warns senior leadership could follow. Now, that’s a pretty bold statement for someone who was seen as one of the leadership. Uh, a group of Denmark on the industrial side. Of course,  Rosemary Barnes: I’d argue it’s also culturally, [00:24:00] culturally not a super Danish thing to, to say at least publicly. Um, yeah, I dunno how many Danish listeners we’ve got, but one thing that I learned when I lived there, they’ve got this thing called yte Long. I think it comes from an, an old book, like fictional book, but it does pretty. Well, Danish people say it pretty accurately describes Danish culture. I’ve just, uh, looked it up. But, um, so it’s Y Y’s law and that has 10, there’s 10 rules in Y’s law and they are, one, you’re not to think that you are anything special. Two, you’re not to think you are as good as we are. Three, you’re not to think you are smarter than we are, or you’re not to imagine yourself better than we are. You know, it can, it continues down like that. But I just wonder like, is the Danish wind industry, have they flown too close to the sun? Have they become too thought themselves too special? Is this an example of where Denmark Danish people would say, you know [00:25:00] what? Who do you think you are when dentistry, you think that you’re better than us? You think you’re smarter than us? Do you think that you don’t deserve to contribute to society? Because that is one of the biggest cultural differences that I found in in Denmark, was that people genuinely think that they have the um, responsibility when they’re doing well to make sure that everybody else in society is doing well. This is an interesting cultural moment for Denmark, is all I would try to say that this to me, I’m very interested to see how Danish people respond to this idea that. We’re gonna, we’re gonna leave now because we don’t wanna share our, uh, wealth with the Danish, with Danish society as a whole  Allen Hall: 32 million kroners, that’s actually extremely low and in the United States. Uh, there are thousands of companies, much smaller than Vestas, where the CEO is making a lot more than that, and to give half of that, more than [00:26:00] half of that away, so the CEO is taking home a million and US dollars, like 1,000,002, that’s not a tremendous amount of money. I for the responsibility which are on that person’s shoulders. I could see being a little upset about that. And obviously he travels in circles in which he meets a lot of people that are making a lot more money come to America, stop at a, I don’t know, there’s a lot of places, machine shops that’ll make more money than that. Uh, so I think there’s a right to be upset about it. You know, the, everything that’s happening in Denmark at the moment, I’m trying to. I feel like Denmark is getting it together. And then these things happen and I start to worry again. Uh, there’s, there’s so many things that have happened in the United States. They’re pushing against Denmark, and I feel, I’m always apologizing to my people I know in Denmark and like, this is another one. Like, oh, geez, yeah, we, you know, vest can move to America. Oh, no, no, no, no. I want buses to be where it is. Stay [00:27:00] there. But I think there’s opportunities for investors to move and you kind of get the feeling that they’re leaving Denmark slowly. Have you noticed that recently?  Rosemary Barnes: Maybe. I mean, uh, all of those Danish wind energy companies used to manufacture in Denmark and barely, there’s barely any Danish manufacturing now. So I mean, to a certain extent this is, you know, started a long time ago, but I also think that the, what you described at the tax of the CEO income and the income not being high, it’s not just, uh. Top 1% kind of issue. That’s something that I, I definitely felt it when I worked there, but I think that like, would your average Danish person wish that CEOs were paid more like Americans and that Danish society became more like American with a huge wealth inequality? I, I’m gonna go out in a limb and say. 90% plus of Danish people would absolutely abhor the idea of that happening there. And they will be very firmly on side of you should be, um, CEOs should not be [00:28:00] making that much money and people that are making a lot of money should be paying a lot of tax to support the rest of society at just, I, I, I’m. Pretty sure that he is like a really core cultural value.  Matthew Stead: I think he is good at, I mean, things don’t change unless things change. And, um, uh, I think it’s good for him to be pushing and, you know, making this a, a public discussion and a public topic. I mean, if he hadn’t have come out talking about this problem, we wouldn’t have been talking about it. So, uh, I think yeah. Good on him for raising it and for being brave. I mean, you, like you say, Rosie, um, is not traditional cultural. Values in, in, in Denmark, but, you know, good on him for, for pushing the, pushing the, the, the barrow.  Allen Hall: It’s, it’s hard, right? I think Vestas works in a global community and they see all different kinds of cultures and all kinds of economic systems, and they operate in all of ’em. And, uh, the CEO of Vestus were in the United States and they have a large manufacturing presence in the United States. Let’s face it. [00:29:00] Uh, easily making 10 million in the United States, maybe more easy. And I don’t think they’re paying him nearly enough for the work that he has done and things that he has accomplished. You have to admit, the CEO of Vestus has really put a lot of time and effort into that company and has improved it in ways that are somehow, uh, never discussed, but are, in my opinion, immeasurable. So for the long-term health of that company, they are seen as the preeminent wind turbine manufactured today. That’s hard to do. That wraps up another episode of the Uptime Wind Energy Podcast.

If you're trying to step into something new while holding onto old patterns, this message is for you. Jesus taught in Matthew 9 that new wine requires new wineskins — because you cannot carry what God is doing next with the structures that supported yesterday. And many of us feel stretched not because God is absent, but because He is inviting us to release what was in order to receive what is. In this episode, Christine Caine unpacks why seasons of transition feel uncomfortable, why old systems eventually crack, and what it truly means to surrender familiar patterns so you can walk fully into God's purposes. If you're navigating: • A season of spiritual growth • Leadership in a shifting culture • Personal transition or life change • Faith when the old ways no longer work This biblical teaching will help you discern what God is doing — and give you the courage to let go of what cannot carry you forward. ✨ What you'll learn: • Why old structures cannot sustain a fresh move of God • The difference between chasing the “next” thing and discerning the “new” thing • How to build spiritual resilience in seasons of change • Why surrender is the key to stepping into the future God has prepared

I'm completely on board with doing this work for myself, for my kids. I recognize now - many thanks to you - how much of my life has been wasted on trying to control my body.But I'm struggling, and many days I have these thoughts of: is this harder than just continuing to diet and restrict? I'm uncomfortable, I feel stressed and anxious, and it's hard to cope with the body changes. I just feel defeated in many ways.I know I don't want to go back, but at the same time, healing is feeling so hard. I am hoping you'll have some advice for where to go from here.

In this episode, Adam and Sammy unpack what it actually looks like for Christians to navigate politics and social issues without turning faith into a team sport. They reflect on Adam's recent conversation on the Carey Nieuwhof Leadership Podcast, then zoom in on why so many political takes feel like shallow soundbites instead of thoughtful, researched convictions. The goal isn't to tell you what to think—it's to help you learn how to think with wisdom, clarity, and Christlike maturity.They get real about why these conversations feel so complicated: lived experience, cultural blind spots, generational pain points, and the way social media rewards outrage instead of understanding. From immigration and assimilation, to racial bias, to “limited comments” hypocrisy, Adam and Sammy challenge believers to build a diverse circle, ask better questions, do honest research, and choose unity without pretending every issue is simple. If you've ever felt stuck between extremes, this episode is an invitation to trade hot takes for discernment—and protect your witness while engaging the real world.--Full Leadership Podcast with Carey NieuwhofApple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/emergency-episode-pastoring-angry-people-when-to-speak/id912753163?i=1000751173095YouTube: https://youtu.be/Hle3Wg9sAcc?si=fef8kK-PrM4mXSeB--Connect with:Adam Mesa https://www.instagram.com/amesa/Sammy Rodriguez https://www.instagram.com/samuelmrod/--Don't forget to stay connected with us:Youtube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4OvpFp9OB9_DgVdVVbXhFgInstagram https://www.instagram.com/beyond.theletter/Tik Tok https://www.tiktok.com/discover/beyond-the-letter--Have a question?

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, hosted by Yusuf, we explore what personal growth really looks like when life feels unfamiliar and unstable—especially during big transitions like moving to a new country. This conversation is for anyone feeling ungrounded while still trying to build a future. Lior shares why growth isn't just “positive thinking”—it's learning to sit with discomfort, name the stories in your mind, and take small actions that compound into real change. About the Guest : Lior Klisman moved to the U.S. with $2,000 and a deep desire to build a better life. He shares lessons from his journey—centered on belonging, identity, mindfulness, and staying committed through uncertainty. Episode Chapters: 00:05:04 — Personal growth isn't becoming “new,” it's staying steady in uncertainty 00:06:28 — Arriving in the U.S. with $2,000: dreams, pressure, and fear 00:07:02 — The hidden struggle: belonging before success 00:09:10 — Real growth lives inside discomfort and vulnerability 00:12:00 — “Live your future self now”: identity as a daily practice 00:13:51 — Learn, unlearn, relearn: changing patterns with breath, journaling, meditation 00:19:19 — Practice makes progress: why growth is a marathon (plus “KMF”) Key Takeaways: Prioritize belonging early in any transition—community stabilizes the mind. Treat growth like training: small shifts compound when repeated. Name your inner stories (“This is a story, not the whole of me”) before they run your choices. Use simple regulation tools: pause + breath before reacting to stimulus. Move from motivation to commitment: results follow consistency. Compare yourself to your past self, not other people. How to Connect With the Guest: You can find him on LinkedIn or Instagram (search his first and last name), and via his website (his first and last name combined + “.com”).   Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?
