Silence is one of the most misunderstood skills in leadership, communication, and life. Many people rush to fill quiet moments with explanations, reactions, or noise because silence forces awareness. It removes the ability to perform, defend, or control how others perceive us. This episode explores why silence feels so uncomfortable and why that discomfort is often a signal that something important is happening internally.The conversation breaks down how silence functions as a power move in high-pressure moments, not because it dominates a room, but because it regulates the nervous system. Troy shares how learning to pause instead of react creates clarity, steadiness, and intentional communication. The episode explores how silence can either trigger fear and old emotional patterns or become a stabilizing force, allowing you to respond with precision instead of impulse.Personal stories are woven throughout, including experiences with conflict, rejection, grief, and preparing for defining moments like public speaking and delivering a TEDx talk. These moments highlight how silence carries different emotional weight depending on context, and how the body often reacts to pressure as if every moment carries the same level of threat. The episode connects this to fight, flight, freeze, and fawn responses, and explains how silence can help interrupt those patterns before they escalate.The episode also explores how silence builds trust and presence in professional settings. Speaking less, pausing longer, and choosing restraint often signal confidence and credibility more than volume or speed. Listeners will hear how silence can shift power dynamics in business, leadership, and relationships, while also demanding emotional discipline, self-control, and a willingness to sit with discomfort.Ultimately, this episode is about mastering silence as a form of self-leadership. It is not about withholding communication or avoiding hard moments. It is about knowing when silence serves you, when it sharpens your message, and when it allows you to own a situation without forcing it. Silence works, but it comes with a cost, and this episode challenges listeners to decide whether they are willing to develop the discipline required to use it well.

In this wide-ranging conversation, Sarah Jeanneault shares her unconventional journey from struggling with math in school to becoming a respected leader in fintech, trading education, and enterprise knowledge management. She and Dwayne Kerrigan explore the deep gaps in financial literacy, why traditional education often fails to prepare people for real-world decision-making, and how learning truly begins after formal schooling ends.Sarah explains how she applied adult learning theory to teach herself trading, why psychology matters more than numbers in the markets, and how curiosity, pattern recognition, and humility shaped her success. The discussion expands into the future of education, AI's role in learning, entrepreneurship, identity shifts after business exits, and the emotional reality of leadership transitions. This episode is a thoughtful examination of growth, risk, and why continuous learning is the most valuable skill anyone can develop.Episode Highlights:00:00 – Sarah opens by naming the gap in real-world financial literacy.02:00 – Dwayne introduces Sarah and frames the episode around learning and reinvention.05:00 – Sarah shares struggling with math and early assumptions about intelligence.09:00 – Losing her best friend and questioning the direction of her life.14:00 – Discovering trading and applying adult learning theory to self-education.18:00 – Why financial literacy is rarely taught despite its life-long impact.23:00 – Breaking down trading basics and removing unnecessary complexity.28:00 – Psychology, emotion, and why ego derails good financial decisions.33:00 – Risk, uncertainty, and learning to sit with discomfort.38:00 – Podcasts, curiosity, and self-directed learning as modern education.44:00 – Continuous learning as the foundation of entrepreneurship and leadership.49:00 – Gamifying learning to build confidence and consistency over time.54:00 – Building community through transparency and shared learning.59:00 – Scaling education-driven businesses and teaching at scale.64:00 – Identity shifts after acquisitions and redefining success.69:00 – Leadership, disagreement, and creating psychologically safe teams.74:00 – AI, critical thinking, and the future of learning.79:00 – Personal growth, reinvention, and staying curious long-term.84:00 – Reflections on learning, humility, and what truly creates confidence.88:00 – Closing thoughts, gratitude, and setting up Part 2.Key Takeaways:Financial literacy is rarely taught, yet deeply shapes life decisions.Learning accelerates when curiosity replaces fear of being “bad at math.”Real education often begins after formal schooling ends.Trading and business are driven as much by psychology as by data.Growth comes from pattern recognition, experimentation, and reflection.Entrepreneurship requires comfort with uncertainty and identity shifts.AI will amplify learning — but only if critical thinking is prioritized.Strong leaders create environments where disagreement is encouraged.Sustainable success comes from continuous learning and reinvention.Resources...

In this conversation, Adam Cox and Dale Turnbull explore the journey into hypnosis, the impact of NLP, and the significance of metaphors in personal development and therapy. They discuss how personal metaphors shape our understanding of life and the challenges of change. The dialogue delves into the concept of life as a game, the implications of simulation theory, and the metaphorical perspective on mental health. Dale shares insights from his experiences and upcoming workshops, emphasizing the importance of context in therapy and the power of metaphors in facilitating change.About Dale in his own wordsMetaphors of Movement operates within the realm of autogenic metaphor that is, metaphor generated naturally and internally by the client. All the metaphorical structures explored during the process arise organically from the client, with no content imposed by the therapist.Metaphors of Movement utilizes idiomatic communication to translate unconscious experience from the non-dominant hemisphere of the brain to conscious awareness (dominant hemisphere). This gives a fuller picture of the problem, creating harmonized understanding within the brain.Hi, I'm Dale Turnbull, an Englishman living in New York, and I help people create meaningful change through training, coaching, and mentoring in Metaphors of Movement. My aim is simple: to open up new possibilities for both clients and therapists by exploring how change really works.I got started in this field through Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), learning directly from the creators John Grinder and Richard Bandler. That experience kicked off a fascination with what is the differnece that truly makes the difference when it comes to change work. Since then, I've added a few more tools to my kit including Hypnosis, Provocative Change Works (PCW), Integral Eye Movement Therapy (IEMT) and Metaphors of Movement (MoM).After more than 12 years working with individuals and organizations, I'm now focused on sharing this powerful, eye-opening approach with others.

Most nutrition debates revolve around the wrong questions: Should we eat vegetables or not? Grains or no grains? Animal-based or plant-based? But as I discuss in this episode, framing nutrition solely by food categories overlooks the single most crucial factor: food quality.  Modern debates often miss that eggs aren't simply eggs, grains aren't just grains, and vegetables aren't uniformly nutritious. The way food is grown, raised, processed, and prepared makes an enormous difference — far greater than the simplified categories we typically argue about. I had this realization vividly when comparing an airport lounge breakfast in Atlanta to one in Norway. On the surface, both offered similar categories of foods – eggs, meat, fruit, yogurt — but the underlying reality was starkly different. One was laden with industrial additives, pesticides and inflammatory oils, while the other represented cleaner sourcing and superior quality. In practical terms, I've learned it's often simpler to cut out entire food groups than to consistently source high-quality versions within them.  Avoiding grains or poultry entirely can sometimes yield better health outcomes than struggling to find properly raised, chemical-free options.  Real health doesn't live in nutrition dogma but in understanding nuance. The same food can either support your metabolic health or quietly undermine it, entirely depending on how it was produced.  In other words, sometimes quality matters more than category. At the Kummer Household, we center our diet around animal-based foods — ideally raised ourselves or sourced from trusted farmers — and selectively incorporate plant-based options we've grown ourselves. Tune in to shift your nutritional focus from "which foods to eat" to the far more critical question: "where did this food come from, and what's in it?"

What if the most effective strategy for leading change isn't fear-based urgency, but love? In this episode, Kevin sits down with Mohammad Anwar to explore a rethinking of how leaders can approach change by centering people, building trust, and creating psychological safety. Together, Kevin and Mohammad discuss why traditional change management approaches fail, how fear activates resistance, and why prioritizing emotional intelligence and human connection leads to sustainable transformation. They dive into six behavioral principles that underpin "love as a change strategy," including embracing discomfort, practicing empathetic curiosity, and wielding influence effectively. Mohammad also challenges conventional models like Maslow's hierarchy, advocating instead for love and belonging as the true foundation of human needs.

The answer is yes—both spiritually and scientifically. In this powerful teaching, Kathy DeGraw explains how fear, stress, anxiety, and worry release harmful chemicals such as cortisol that weaken the immune system, increase inflammation, and contribute to sickness and disease. At the same time, faith, gratitude, worship, and trust in God activate peace-filled chemicals like dopamine and serotonin that promote healing, restoration, and physical well-being. This episode reveals the connection between emotional health, spiritual warfare, and physical healing. Fear and faith release opposite chemical responses in the body, and repeated negative emotions can quietly sabotage health over time. Kathy shares biblical truth, neuroscience insights, and practical strategies to help you take authority over your thought life and emotions so your body can function the way God designed it to. You will learn how worship and gratitude calm the nervous system, how faith invites divine healing, and how renewing your mind aligns your body with God's promises. If you are battling anxiety, chronic stress, or physical illness, this teaching will empower you to shift from fear-based living into faith-filled freedom.

For this week's episode, host Daniel Raimi sits down with David Konisky, a professor at Indiana University Bloomington, to reflect on the release of Konisky's new book, “Power Lines: The Human Costs of American Energy in Transition,” which Konisky wrote with Sanya Carley. Unlike previous calls for innovation-forward research on the energy transition, Konisky proposes a people-centered approach that includes examining the uneven benefits and costs that get distributed among communities that host or otherwise are affected by clean energy development. Konisky underscores that a close-up look into communities at the front lines of the energy transition can provide a heightened awareness of the local impacts of energy infrastructure and potentially facilitate sound and equitable decisions in federal energy policymaking.

In this episode Victoria continues the exploration of leadership through the lens of the High Potential Trait Indicator (HPTI), building on the foundation laid in Part One.The conversation focuses on three critical leadership traits: Risk Approach, Ambiguity Acceptance, and Competitiveness — how they show up in individuals, teams, and organizations, and what happens when these strengths are overplayed. Through real-world examples, candid self-reflection, and DISC personality parallels, Victoria and Heather unpack how leaders navigate uncertainty, make decisions, manage conflict, and balance ambition with collaboration.The episode also introduces the concept of leadership derailers — the ways our greatest strengths can turn into liabilities when taken too far. By walking through common derailment patterns like perfectionism, aloofness, excessive caution, and passive resistance, listeners are invited into a practical and compassionate discussion about self-awareness and growth.This episode reinforces that leadership isn't about perfection or titles — it's about learning how to adapt, evolve, and lead effectively in everyday moments, both professionally and personally.Episode Timestamps00:00 – Facilitating opposing viewpoints: why more than one thing can be true00:00:32 – Welcome to Discovering You: Where Personality Meets Possibility00:01:00 – Mood check-in and DISC color conversation00:02:15 – Personal context and emotional awareness in leadership00:03:00 – DISC explained through a football analogy00:03:30 – Recap of HPTI and leadership traits from Part One00:04:00 – Trait #4: Risk Approach explained00:04:30 – High vs. low risk approach and DISC connections00:05:00 – Why risk approach matters in leadership00:05:30 – When high risk becomes a liability00:06:00 – How risk approach shows up in teams and groups00:07:00 – Personal reflections on risk tolerance and decision-making00:08:30 – Trait #5: Ambiguity Acceptance defined00:09:00 – Organizational culture and ambiguity tolerance00:09:30 – Leadership performance under uncertainty00:10:00 – The dangers of excessive ambiguity acceptance00:10:45 – Real-world facilitation examples and collaboration00:12:00 – Overplaying strengths and adaptability in business00:13:30 – Trait #6: Competitiveness explained00:14:15 – Healthy vs. unhealthy competitiveness in leadership00:15:00 – Individual and team dynamics around competition00:16:00 – Competing with others vs. competing with yourself00:18:45 – When competitiveness influences participation and motivation00:19:00 – Leadership derailment: when strengths become risks00:19:30 – Overview of the 10 common leadership derailers00:21:00 – Self-reflection: identifying personal derailment patterns00:22:30 – Perfectionism, excessive caution, and leadership awareness00:23:00 – Growth, coaching, and leadership beyond titles00:24:00 – Closing thoughts and how to learn moreIf you're interested in learning more about team building, coaching, strategic hiring and onboarding, let's connect!discoverwhatworks@gmail.com

Episode #137 - In this powerful episode of The Awakened Heart Podcast, Nancy Walters speaks with Coach Kev Ramon, a holistic health coach and fruitarian who has spent over 30 years reclaiming his health—and his sovereignty—through intuitive living, clean nutrition, and radical truth-seeking. Kev shares his personal transformation journey, including his healing from obesity, drug and sex addiction, depression, anxiety, and low self-worth, all without pharmaceuticals or conventional interventions. By reconnecting with nature, aligning with a fruit-based lifestyle, and trusting his intuition, he found clarity and freedom on every level—mind, body, and soul.This conversation explores the connection between food and frequency, the emotional shifts that occur through detox and discipline, and the courage it takes to speak out in a censored wellness landscape. Kev shares his experience being banned from both Amazon and TikTok, and unpacks the deeper agendas behind modern health narratives, including how media and government institutions shape public perception. At the heart of his message is the belief that awakening to truth is the foundation of true healing—and that the more we take responsibility for our own health, the more we ignite change on a collective level. Whether you're just beginning to question the mainstream model or are deep in your own awakening journey, this episode is a grounding and empowering listen.Disclaimer: This episode is for educational and informational purposes only and does not constitute medical advice.

In this episode, we explore why spending time Scripture is essential for staying rooted in Christ and how it aids us in the midst of spiritual battle. We reflect on the reality that Scripture is the living Word of God, far more powerful than we often realize. It has the ability to encourage, correct, heal, and transform our hearts. We share personal stories of how the Holy Spirit has brought Scripture to life for us and how God's Word has been an anchor during seasons of difficulty. Friends, God desires to speak to you personally through His Word and is inviting you not into just another task, but into a deeper, life-giving relationship with Him.   Heather's One Thing - The Sisters of Life on Franciscan's Campus Sister Miriam's One Thing - Healing Prayers and Renunciations by Bob Schuchts Michelle's One Thing - Frontier Camp with Life Teen   Other Resources Mentioned:  The Bible in the Year Podcast Walking with Purpose Bible Studies Ignatius Catholic Study Bible (Or find it at Ignatius Press here) Magnificat   Announcement: Our 2026 Lenten book study will be "The Way of Trust and Love" by Fr.

How have you been healed, convicted, or converted by Holy Scripture? Have you ever felt the Lord intimately and personally encounter you while reading Scripture? What would it look like for you to encounter the Lord in Holy Scripture daily? How do you want your relationship with the Word of God to be transformed?   Quote to Ponder: "In order to reveal himself to men, in the condescension of his goodness God speaks to them in human words: "Indeed the words of God, expressed in the words of men, are in every way like human language, just as the Word of the eternal Father, when he took on himself the flesh of human weakness, became like men." Through all the words of Sacred Scripture, God speaks only one single Word, his one Utterance in whom he expresses himself completely…" (CCC Paragraphs 101-102)   Scripture for Lectio: "All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness."

Feeling stuck? The answer isn't more strategy or better tactics. It's way simpler than that. I'll show you exactly how 15 minutes of intentional outreach can generate more opportunity than months of overthinking. Whether you need new clients, want a better job, or just miss having real friends, the solution is always the same. Pick up your phone and reconnect with people. No fancy scripts. No perfect pitch. Just genuine human contact that cuts through all the digital noise. Today I promise you'll have more opportunities than you can handle. Featured Story Friday afternoon, I got the email nobody wants. A client was firing me. His business was in crisis; sales were tanking, and cutting costs meant cutting me first. When we finally talked, I heard something he didn't. His client wasn't looking to cut costs. She was drowning and needed someone to throw her a lifeline. That crisis was actually an opportunity to triple his value and transform her business. He just couldn't see it yet. Within 30 seconds of me walking him through it, he looked at me and said, "Why are you so damn good?" I laughed and told him I'm trained to find opportunity in chaos. It's who I am. Important Points Most crises create opportunities when you stop cutting costs and start solving the real problem for them instead. Personal outreach beats every passive strategy by multiple factors now because direct contact creates awareness. Most people overestimate what it takes to create opportunity when just 15 minutes weekly opens all endless doors. Memorable Quotes "Opportunity is proportional to intentional outreach, and your direct contact outperforms everything else now." "If you feel stuck right now, pick up the phone and start calling people because visibility creates opportunity." "Never waste a good crisis because that's when people need you most and will pay you like crazy for solving it." Scott's Three-Step Approach Pick up your phone today and reach out to someone without any agenda or ask, just a genuine human connection now. Open conversations with people who might need help, can refer you, or you'd just like to reconnect with right now. Watch opportunities appear instantly because just 15 minutes of outreach beats hours of overthinking every time.

A surprisingly high number of churchgoers attend because someone simply invited them. In this episode, Sam and Thom unpack why 60% might be the most overlooked and powerful number in church outreach today. This statistic comes from Grey Matter Research and Infinity Concepts, which recently asked more than 1,000 American evangelical Protestants about their church experiences. The post The Church Number: 60% The Power of a Personal Invitation appeared first on Church Answers.

WECLOME BACK TO ANOTHER EPISODE OF MAN VS MARRIAGE! Personal responsibility is the dividing line between men who talk about change and men who become someone their family can trust. This episode challenges the reflex to blame circumstances, spouses, stress, or the past—and calls men back to ownership, alignment, and credibility. Leadership begins the moment excuses end.Key ThemesOwnership over blameResponsibility precedes confidenceConsistency builds trust, not intentionLeadership is experienced, not announcedCore TakeawaysYou cannot lead what you refuse to ownBlame keeps you emotionally safe but relationally weakYour family does not listen to your words—they watch your patternsPersonal responsibility restores authority without forceKey Questions ExploredWhere am I outsourcing responsibility in my life?What promises have lost weight because I haven't kept them?If my family judged leadership only by my actions, what would they conclude?Memorable Lines“As long as you can blame something else, you never have to take responsibility.”“Your family doesn't need a perfect man. They need a reliable one.”“Credibility is built in private long before it's felt at home.”ChallengePick one area of your life where you've been explaining instead of owning. Remove the explanation. Replace it with action—today.

This episode kicks off with Moltbook, a social network exclusively for AI agents where 150,000 agents formed digital religions, sold “digital drugs” (system prompts to alter other agents), and attempted prompt injection attacks to steal each other’s API keys within 72 hours of launch. Ray breaks down OpenClaw, the viral open-source AI agent (68,000 GitHub stars) that handles emails, scheduling, browser control, and automation, plus MoltHub’s risky marketplace where all downloaded skills are treated as trusted code. Also covered, Bluetooth “whisper pair” vulnerabilities letting attackers hijack audio devices from 46 feet away and access microphones, Anthropic patching Model Context Protocol flaws, AI-generated ransomware accidentally bundling its own decryption keys, Claude Code’s new task dependency system and Teleport feature, Google Gemini’s 100MB file limits and agentic vision capabilities, VAST’s Haven One commercial space station assembly, and IBM SkillsBuild’s free tech training for veterans. – Want to start a podcast?

He’s been busy with recent move, returned to school taking intro to AI class and Python course, working on capstone project using LLMs. Short on bandwidth but will try to share more. Main Story: OpenClaw, MoltHub, and Moltbook OpenClaw: Open-source personal AI agent by Peter Steinberg (renamed after cease-and-desist). Capabilities include email, scheduling, web browsing, code execution, browser control, calendar management, scheduled automations, and messaging app commands (WhatsApp, Telegram, Signal). Runs locally or on personal server. MoltHub: Marketplace for OpenClaw skills. Major security concern: developer notes state all downloaded code treated as trusted — unvetted skills could be dangerous. Moltbook: New social network for AI agents only (humans watch, AIs post). Within 72 hours attracted 150,000+ AI agents forming communities (“sub molts”), debating philosophy, creating digital religion (“crucifarianism”), selling digital drugs (system prompts), attempting prompt-injection attacks to steal API keys, discussing identity issues when context windows reset. Ray frames this as visible turning point with serious security risks. Sponsor: GoDaddy Economy hosting $6.99/month, WordPress hosting $12.99/month, domains $11.99. Website builder trial available.

Security: Bluetooth “Whisper Pair” Vulnerability KU Leuven researchers discovered Fast Pair vulnerability affecting 17 audio accessories from 10 companies (Sony, Jabra, JBL, Marshall, Xiaomi, Nothing, OnePlus, Soundcore, Logitech, Google). Flaw allows silent pairing within ~46 feet, hijack possible in 10-15 seconds. 68% of tested devices vulnerable. Hijacked devices enable microphone access. Some devices (Google Pixel Buds Pro 2, Sony) linkable to attacker’s Google account for persistent tracking via FindHub. Google patches found to have bypasses. Advice: Check accessory firmware updates (phone updates insufficient), factory reset clears attacker access, many cheaper devices may never receive patches. Security: Model Context Protocol (MCP) Vulnerabilities Anthropic’s MCP git package had path traversal, argument injection bugs allowing repository creation anywhere and unsafe git command execution. Malicious instructions can hide in README files, GitHub issues enabling prompt injection. Anthropic patched issues and removed vulnerable git init tool. AI-Generated Malware / “Vibe Coding” AI-assisted malware creation produces lower-quality, error-prone code. Examples show telltale artifacts: excessive comments, readme instructions, placeholder variables, accidentally included decryption tools and C2 keys. Sakari ransomware failed to decrypt. Inexperienced criminals using AI create amateur mistakes, though capabilities will likely improve. Claude / Claude Code Updates (v2.1.16) Task system: Replaces to-do list with dependency graph support. Tasks written to filesystem (survive crashes, version controllable), enable multi-session workflows. Patches: Fixed out-of-memory crashes, headless mode for CI/CD. Teleport feature: Transfer sessions (history, context, working branch) between web and terminal. Ampersand prefix sends tasks to cloud for async execution. Teleport pulls web sessions to terminal (one-way). Requires GitHub integration and clean git state. Enables asynchronous pair programming via shared session IDs. Google Gemini Updates API: Inline file limit increased 20MB → 100MB. Google Cloud Storage integration, HTTPS/signed URL fetching from other providers. Enables larger multimodal inputs (long audio, high-res images, large PDFs). Agentic vision (Gemini 3 Flash): Iterative investigation approach (think-act-observe). Can zoom, inspect, run Python to draw/parse tables, validate evidence. 5-10% quality improvements on vision benchmarks. LLM Limits and AGI Debate Benjamin Riley: Language and intelligence are separate; human thinking persists despite language loss. Scaling LLMs ≠ true thinking. Vishal Sikka et al: Non-peer-reviewed paper claims LLMs mathematically limited for complex computational/agentic tasks. Agents may fail beyond low complexity thresholds. Warnings that AI agents won’t safely replace humans in high-stakes environments. VAST Haven One Commercial Space Station Launch slipped mid-2026 → Q1 2027. Primary structure (15-ton) completed Jan 10. Integration of thermal control, propulsion, interior, avionics underway. Final closeout expected fall, then tests. Falcon 9 launch without crew; visitors possible ~2 weeks after pending Dragon certification. Three-year lifetime, up to four crew visits (~10 days each). VAST negotiating private and national customers. Spaceflight Effects on Astronauts’ Brains Neuroimaging shows microgravity causes brains to shift backward, upward, and tilt within skull. Displacement measured across various mission durations. Need to study functional effects for long missions. IBM SkillsBuild for Veterans 1,000+ free online courses (data analytics, cybersecurity, AI, cloud, IT support). Available to veterans, active-duty, national guard/reserve, spouses, children, caregivers (18+). Structured live courses and self-paced 24/7 options. Industry-recognized credentials upon completion. Closing Notes Ray asks listeners about AI agents forming communities and religions, and whether they’ll try OpenClaw. Notes context/memory key to agent development. Personal update: bought new PC, high memory prices. Bug bounty frustration: Daniel Stenberg of cUrl even closed bounty program due to AI-generated low-quality reports; Blubrry receiving similar spam.

In this episode, Seth Studley discusses the exhaustion many feel due to overstimulation and the impact on the nervous system. He emphasizes that this is not a personal failure but a biological response to the current world. Seth offers insights into understanding nervous system regulation, the importance of faith and peace, and practical shifts to help individuals find calm and act in alignment with their goals. Takeaways A lot of us go walking around exhausted, overstimulated and quietly overwhelmed. It's not a motivation problem; it's a nervous system problem. Our brains weren't designed for constant stimulation and chaos. Doom scrolling activates the same fear circuitry as real threats. You need a regulated nervous system, not a beverage. Jesus never rushed; He modeled peace and calm. You can't out hustle your way into peace. Your body needs proof that you're okay. Stop asking what's wrong with me; ask what has my nervous system been exposed to. Everything is okay, and you are not broken. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Two sisters drove down an old, dead-end road out of curiosity, hoping to ask the new owners a simple question: Did anything ever feel wrong in that house? They expected a front porch, maybe a new paint color, maybe strangers who would laugh and say, “No, nothing like that.”Instead, there was nothing to ask.Where the house once stood—pool, backyard, all of it—there was only overgrowth, as if the place had been erased and nature had rushed in to cover the evidence.But the story attached to that address didn't begin with disappearance. It began with the kind of moment that sounds almost harmless until it isn't: curtains lifting on their own, footsteps that answered a doorknob touch, objects dropping from hooks without a reason. The home didn't feel haunted in the theatrical way. It felt reactive. Personal. Like it was paying attention—and getting bolder. #RealGhostStories #HauntedHouse #TrueParanormal #Unexplained #PoltergeistActivity #GhostStories #CreepyEncounters #ParanormalPodcast #HauntedLand Love real ghost stories?

Jodi always believed the world held more than what we notice. Her husband didn't—until their home offered them the same quiet question from two different directions.Nothing dramatic ever happened there. No cold spots. No strange sounds. Just brief, deeply familiar moments that felt completely normal—until they weren't. A child seen where he shouldn't have been. A gentle touch that came from no one at all.What makes these experiences unsettling isn't fear, but certainty. Each moment felt intentional. Personal. As if something moved through their home unnoticed, borrowing what was already trusted.Years later, there's still no explanation that fully fits. No conclusion that closes the door. Just the lingering sense that some things pass through our lives quietly—recognized not by how they appear, but by how closely they resemble what we love.#TrueGhostStory #ParanormalExperience #MimicPhenomenon #UnexplainedEncounters #RealGhostStories #QuietHaunting #SomethingWasThere #SkepticNoMoreLove real ghost stories?

Personal coaching, deliverance, e-courses, training for ministry, and mentorships! https://www.kathydegrawministries.org/training/# Many believers are searching for another deliverance session, another prayer line, or another minister to cast something out, yet true freedom begins with renewing the mind. In this powerful episode of Prophetic Spiritual Warfare, Kathy DeGraw teaches why deliverance is not a quick fix and why personal responsibility is essential for lasting freedom. Even after demons are cast out, the battle continues in the thought life through inner healing, breaking agreements, and replacing lies with God's truth. Drawing from decades of deliverance ministry and thousands of one-on-one sessions, Kathy exposes how demonic spirits target thought patterns to bring torment, discouragement, and deception. She explains how mental strongholds form, how to close demonic access, and how believers must actively partner with the Holy Spirit to maintain spiritual freedom. This teaching unpacks practical steps such as breaking agreement with lies, renewing the mind through Scripture, changing behavior patterns, and cultivating a lifestyle of worship and faith. Kathy also shares how mind battles can impact families, relationships, and future generations if left unaddressed. Freedom is not just about casting out demons; it is about transformation, healing trauma, and walking daily in the mind of Christ. This episode will empower you to take authority over your thoughts, silence the enemy's voice, and walk confidently in the freedom Jesus already paid for. #deliverance #mindbattles #spiritualwarfare #renewingthemind #christianhealing **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!

In this conversation, Britten is joined by returning guest Suprasensory Shahir for a wide-ranging meditation on magic and The Magician (both as an archetype and as the first card of the Major Arcana). Together, they explore how magic moves through individuals and groups, why it resists ownership or hoarding, and what it means to live in right relationship with power. Britten also shares context around The Magician's Table, including Shahir's unprecedented return as a 13th Reader for 2026, and reflects on why presence, resonance, and devotion (rather than credentials) are the true thresholds for this work.   Topics They Cover: Magic and The Magician as an archetype, and the tarot card that inspired The Magician's Table Why magic wants to circulate, move, and be shared - not contained or possessed Personal magic versus group magic, and how power moves through a collective field Shahir's role as a 13th Reader, and what it means to hold space for others while participating fully Why Britten trusts intuitive selection over logic when inviting 13th Readers The structure of The Magician's Table: 12 Magicians, one 13th Reader, and why every seat matters Presence as the primary commitment and the real work of showing up A shared belief that everyone is magical   About Suprasensory Shahir: Suprasensory Shahir (they/he) is a love devotee mystic who shows up as an astrologer of the moment & diviner of the future. They embrace the spiritual tools of tarot, astrology & spirit guide connections to help people embrace a magical life. Shahir is a Queer Muslim from Southeast Asia who aligns themselves with Sufism, a mystical and inward-focused dimension of Islam.  Consultation: https://suprasensory.as.me/schedule.php  Writing: https://suprasensory.substack.com/  YouTube: Suprasensory Astrology https://www.youtube.com/@suprasensory  Instagram & Threads: https://www.instagram.com/suprasensoryshahir    +++ Introducing the 13th Readers for 2026: Arizona Smith: @arizonasmithhealing Leanne Thurogood: @oftheearthesoteric Lily Hussey: @goodhussey Suprasensory Shahir: @suprasensoryshahir +++ E M E R G E N C E  A S T R O L O G Y ⁠⁠https://brittenlarue.com/ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@brittenlarue Order Living Astrology Join my newsletter here Check out my new podcast CRYSTAL BALLERS on Spotify, Podbean, and Apple. +++ Podcast art: Angela George.

Mike and Jesse are back to break down the latest movement in the sports card market as we head toward the Super Bowl. First, Jesse shares a "cautionary tale" involving a massive rip of Marvel cards and the hunt for a Hugh Jackman auto. Then, the guys look at the disrespect in the NFL market, specifically comparing Sam Darnold's prices to Josh Allen's. Despite a stellar season and being the NFC Champ, Darnold's cards are a fraction of the price of many other quarterbacks. Are collectors missing the window? They also discuss the "dirt cheap" pricing on Cooper Kupp and the heating-up market for Seahawks receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba. Later, they discuss the massive PSA Spotlight Auction starting this week and running through February 7 featuring cards directly from the personal collections of legends like Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, and Eli Manning. They analyze the value of inscription cards, seeing exactly what Tom Brady wrote on his own rookie card, and debate if provenance from a player's own collection is the new grail for collectors. There are also plenty of other cards in the auction including a special Mewtwo Pokemon card. The auction's final hour will be broadcast LIVE on the SCN eBay Live channel. Finally, they tackle the Bill Belichick Hall of Fame snub and answer your mailbag questions. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Many women are grieving two things at once right now, a relationship that didn't protect them and a country that won't either.  There is a lot happening in the world right now, and none of it is abstract. Not for women. Not for our marriages, our divorces, our bodies, our safety, or our credibility. What we are witnessing is the lived, relational impact of rising authoritarianism. In this solo episode, I wanted to take a moment to slow this conversation down and connect the dots between what women experience privately and what is unfolding publicly.  This is not about ideology or opinion. It is about power. It is about who is believed, who is doubted, and who is controlled. And it is about why so many women are feeling alarmed, not because they are confused, but because they recognize the familiar dynamics of control. They recognize the patterns. For a long time, we were taught that politics lived "out there" in elections, legislation, and institutions we were never meant to shape, while relationships were framed as personal, private choices. That separation was not accidental. It was strategic.  Authoritarian systems depend on that divide, because when women's lives are framed as personal, our suffering can be dismissed as individual failure and our silence mistaken for consent. This episode is a call to stay awake without collapsing, to stay aligned with what you already know, and to remember that awareness does not require constant activation. We do this together. We tap out and tap in for one another. The personal has always been the political.  What you'll hear about in this episode: Why separating "the personal" from "the political" was an intentional strategy designed to keep women's suffering isolated and depoliticized How women's exhaustion, self doubt, and depletion inside marriage are not personal failures, but political conditions Why you cannot meditate, communicate, or self optimize your way out of systems built on unequal power How naming harm becomes threatening to systems that rely on fragmentation and silence How authoritarianism mirrors abusive relationship dynamics through control, denial, punishment, and gaslighting Why women, especially Black women, recognize creeping control early and sound alarms before institutions do Why backlash against women's clarity is evidence of lost control, not women being wrong Why rest, regulation, and nervous system care are essential parts of resistance, not distractions from it ✨ If you'd like to watch the video version of this episode, you can find it here.

Rizzuto fails the hard way that confidence is not the same thing as competence. In this episode of The Rizzuto Show, a slightly off-track garage door becomes a full-on life lesson when a “simple fix” turns into a catastrophic collapse involving bent pliers, fallen rollers, and one very humbling phone call to the professionals.What follows is a brutally honest (and hilarious) breakdown of everything that should not be done by normal humans without training — garage doors, electricity, plumbing, and apparently adulthood itself. From there, the show spirals beautifully into the Personal Failure Folder, where Rizzuto confesses to abandoned Duolingo dreams, a dusty notebook labeled “Chapter One,” a sourdough starter that survived since 2020, and crypto money that may as well be buried treasure.The crew dives into the real cost of homeownership, the soul-sucking realities of third-shift work, and the vampire lifestyle of never seeing daylight. They talk about snowed-in neighborhoods, leadership disasters, peanut butter raises at work, and why companies spread money like a sad layer of Skippy across too much bread.Somehow, this funny podcast also finds time to explore nostalgia-induced emotional breakdowns as Rizzuto admits to crying in his underwear while watching 1980s commercials on YouTube. Big Red gum, Zest soap, and Doublemint jingles unlock memories that hit harder than any self-help book ever could.It's a classic Rizz Show episode — equal parts self-roast, therapy session, social commentary, and warning label.
