In this episode of Founder Talk, Christoff Poppe, founder of Half of Eight and a Vistage Chair who works with CEOs across industries, breaks down why peer groups are becoming a non-negotiable advantage for top leaders today. He's in the room for the hardest conversations CEOs have: succession issues, hiring freezes, layoffs, stalled growth, shifting economies, AI disruption. And he's seen how peers uncover blindspots that no book, consultant, or board meeting ever will.Christoff explains why CEOs need people around them who challenge their assumptions, call out their patterns, and push them to lead with clarity even when the future is uncertain. He shares what he's learned guiding leadership teams, why nearly every strategic issue is actually a people issue, and how the right peer advisory group can prevent costly mistakes before they happen.We dig into the pressures CEOs feel but rarely talk about: decision fatigue, loneliness at the top, managing fear inside organizations, and the struggle to evolve when your company grows faster than you do. Christoff also reveals the three traits that determine whether a CEO thrives or stagnates and how peers accelerate that transformation.You'll learn:✅ Why CEOs need peers who will challenge, not comfort them✅ How peer groups expose blindspots you can't see on your own✅ Why isolation slows down decision-making and increases risk✅ What great leadership actually looks like in uncertain markets✅ How to lead through fear, hesitation, and rapid change✅ Why belonging, clarity, and accountability outperform raw strategy✅ How peer advisory groups help CEOs grow personally AND scale their companiesIf you're a CEO, founder, or executive searching “how do I scale smarter,” “why leadership feels lonely,” or “how to make better decisions in uncertain times,” this episode gives you the perspective you've been missing — the peer advantage every leader needs.Connect with Christoff:Guest LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/christoffpoppe/Guest Website: https://www.halfofeight.com/If you are a B2B company that wants to build your own in-house content team instead of outsourcing your content to a marketing agency, we may be a fit for you!

Watch on YouTube → What does it take to transform your life from inside a prison cell? Shaka Senghor spent 19 years in prison, seven in solitary confinement for a murder he committed at 19. Instead of letting it destroy him, he turned his cell into a university, wrote four books, and discovered a purpose that would change everything. In this raw conversation, Shaka takes us from running away at 14 and being seduced into the drug trade, to the night he pulled the trigger that changed his life forever. He shares what solitary confinement really does to the human mind, the two letters that transformed him (one from his son, another from his victim's godmother offering forgiveness), and the unflinching truth about what's broken in America's criminal justice system. We also discuss his brother's murder in 2021, fatherhood, and the hidden prisons we all carry. Shaka Senghor is a New York Times bestselling author ("Writing My Wrongs," "How to Be Free"), criminal justice reform advocate, and former fellow at MIT. Since his release in 2010, he's spoken on stages from TED to Oprah's Super Soul Sunday, advised presidents and corporations, and become one of the most powerful voices on redemption and second chances in America. This conversation challenges everything you think you know about crime, punishment, and whether people can truly change. His message: “Never settle for mediocrity when greatness is available.” His books include: Newest release → How to Be Free: A Proven Guide to Escaping Life's Hidden Prisons Writing My Wrongs: Life, Death, and Redemption in an American Prison Letters to the Sons of Society Book Recommendations from Shaka: "As a Man Thinketh" by James Allen "The Hard Thing About Hard Things" by Ben Horowitz "I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings" by Maya Angelou "Atomic Habits" by James Clear Organizations Mentioned: Anti-Recidivism Coalition (ARC) Syncopated Ladies (Chloe and Maud Arnold) CHAPTERS: 00:00 Trailer 00:59 Meet Tim Green 01:35 Introducing Shaka Senor 02:30 The Power to Change Your Life 04:38 The Need for Safety 06:43 The Path from Abuse to the Streets 11:58 The Impact of Gun Violence 15:54 Inside Solitary Confinement 18:59 The Journey of Self-Improvement 21:30 The Road to Redemption 32:46 The Power of Forgiveness 33:26 The Three Miracles and Mentorship 34:03 A Father's Turning Point 34:47 The Power of Writing in Prison 36:37 Feedback and Growth as a Writer 37:59 Exploring Faith and Spirituality 40:57 Conversations with My Sons 44:05 Reforming the Incarceration System 52:20 Personal Reflections and Achievements 59:39 Final Thoughts and Recommendations 01:01:02 Rapid Fire Questions SPONSORS: ElevenLabs: Thanks to ElevenLabs (https://elevenlabs.io) for supporting this episode and powering Tim's voice.

Most founders obsess over growth, but few think about staying in business long enough to enjoy it.In this episode of Founder Talk, I sit down with Matt Sidman, founder of TEQWORKS, to uncover the real blueprint behind building a company that not only survives 24 years but also supports your life, your family, and your purpose along the way.Matt breaks down what actually keeps a business alive: values, consistency, humility, and the discipline to grow slow instead of burning bright and burning out. He shares the full arc of his journey, from launching TEQWORKS with his father, to almost losing the company when the culture shifted, to rebuilding it with intention when he realized it no longer reflected who they were.We dig into the uncomfortable truths founders rarely talk about: identity, ego, control, fear, reinvention, and the moments that force you to choose between the business you want and the life you want to live. Matt talks openly about how “Never miss a moment” became the philosophy that shaped both his company and his family and why those moments became his real metric for success.You'll learn: ✅ What actually keeps a business alive for 24 years ✅ How to reset your company when it drifts off course ✅ Why empathy and heart outperform hustle and ego ✅ How to build a business that supports your life, not consumes it ✅ Why slowing down can be the most strategic move you make ✅ How to become a leader people want to follow for decadesIf you want to know what it really takes to last through recessions, reinventions, and the pressure to always grow faster, this conversation is a masterclass in longevity, leadership, and building a business that puts life first.Connect with Matthew SidmanGuest LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mattsidman/Guest Website: https://www.teqworks.com/author/mattteqworks-com/Get Involved Random Acts Matter: https://www.randomactsmatter.com/CASA Kane County: https://casakanecounty.org/If you are a B2B company that wants to build your own in-house content team instead of outsourcing your content to a marketing agency, we may be a fit for you!

In today's episode, Neil delves into the Japanese 5S system, a methodology for organizing workspaces to enhance efficiency, safety, and productivity. Drawing from his 26 years of experience in tutoring, teaching, and coaching, Neil explains the five key components of the 5S system: Sort, Set in Order, Shine, Standardize, and Sustain. Neil illustrates how these principles can be applied not only in professional settings but also in personal life, encouraging listeners to declutter, organize, and maintain their environments for improved performance and well-being. KEY TAKEAWAYS Understanding the 5S System: The 5S system is a methodology for organizing a workspace to enhance efficiency, safety, and productivity. It consists of five steps: Sort, Set in Order, Shine, Standardize, and Sustain, which aim to reduce waste and improve quality. Application of 5S in Personal and Professional Life: The principles of the 5S system can be applied not only in workspaces but also in personal life. By decluttering, organizing, and maintaining cleanliness. Importance of Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs): Establishing clear procedures and standards is crucial for maintaining organization and cleanliness. Continuous Improvement (Kaizen): The concept of Kaizen, or continuous improvement, is integral to the 5S philosophy. By making small, incremental changes over time. Personal Reflection and Adaptation: The speaker encourages listeners to reflect on their own practices and consider how implementing the 5S system could lead to improvements in their lives.  BEST MOMENTS "The 5S system is a methodology, a systematic approach to organizing a workspace for efficiency, safety, and productivity." "The goal behind this one is to declutter and eliminate waste by keeping just the essential tools and materials." "If you do the same thing the same way every single time, making it streamlined and efficient, then the chance of things going wrong is massively reduced." "Just imagine the 5S system to your life, not just your workspace. What would that do for you?" "Maybe this is it for you. What would applying 5S do for your messy life?"

This message challenges us to examine where our treasure truly lies and whether God holds the preeminent place in every area of our lives. Drawing from Matthew 6:21, we're reminded that where our treasure is, there our heart will be also. The sermon walks us through the biblical foundation of generosity, starting with Cain and Abel's offerings in Genesis, where we see that God desires our first and best, not our leftovers. Abel brought the firstborn of his flock in faith, while Cain brought what remained after the harvest. This principle echoes throughout Scripture: God gave first, loved first, and came first. Through Abraham's encounter with Melchizedek and the Old Testament practice of tithing, we see a consistent theme that giving isn't about God needing our resources, but about our hearts being aligned with His. The most powerful insight comes from recognizing that we are merely stewards of what belongs to God anyway. As Psalm 24:1 declares, the earth is the Lord's and everything in it. When we grasp that every breath we take, every dollar we earn, and every blessing we receive comes from Him, giving becomes an act of worship and gratitude rather than obligation. The question isn't whether God needs our money, but whether we trust Him enough to put Him first in all things.**Sermon Notes:****Introduction:**- Pastor Rick introduces himself and mentions the church's journey through the book of Romans.- He shares an impactful experience from a conference in Jacksonville, Florida, led by Pastor Joby Martin and Church of 1122.**Main Themes:**- **Culture of Generosity:** Pastor Rick felt corrected and inspired regarding his approach to giving.- **Importance of Giving:** Emphasis on giving as a reflection of gratitude and faith rather than obligation.**Key Scriptures:**- **Colossians 1:15-18:** Jesus is the image of the invisible God, preeminent in all things, emphasizing His centrality.- **Psalm 24:1:** Everything belongs to God; all creation and ownership are His.- **Matthew 6:19-21:** Storing treasures in heaven; where your treasure is, there your heart will be.- **1 Timothy 6:6-10:** Warning against the love of money and its destructive potential.**Principles of Giving:**- God wants the first and best of what we have as a demonstration of our faith, not leftovers (Genesis 4: Cain and Abel).- The story of Abraham and Melchizedek (Genesis 14) as an example of purposeful giving.- **Old Testament Tithe:** Explained as giving the first 10% of one's earnings for the support of the temple and community (Malachi 3).**New Testament Insights:**- **Matthew 23:23:** Jesus acknowledges the importance of tithing but prioritizes justice, mercy, and faith.- **New Testament Giving Principles (1 Corinthians 16):** Giving should be periodic, personal, planned, proportionate, and plentiful.**Pastor Rick's Personal Reflection:**- Rick shares his own journey in understanding and practicing generosity, emphasizing obedience and faithfulness in giving.**Conclusion:**- The ultimate model of giving is Jesus, who gave everything for humanity, prompting us to mirror that generosity in our lives.**Practical Applications:**1. **Evaluate Priorities:** Reflect on where your financial resources go, as it indicates where your heart truly lies.2. **Plan Your Giving:** Set a regular time to tithe or give, ensuring it is a thoughtful and purposeful act, not an afterthought.3. **Start Small if Necessary:** If a full tithe is daunting, begin with a smaller, consistent amount, and increase as your faith grows.4. **Teach Generosity:** Share the principle of giving with your family, emphasizing its importance and spiritual basis.**Discussion Questions:**1. How does recognizing God's ownership of everything change your perspective on your resources?2. In what ways can you ensure that your giving is from a place of gratitude and not obligation?3. Reflect on the principle "Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also." What does this reveal about your current heart posture?4. What steps can you take to make Jesus preeminent in all areas of your life, including your finances?5. Share a personal experience where you felt called to give. What was the impact of your obedience?By exploring these concepts, the sermon encourages personal reflection and practical steps toward embodying a culture of generosity in personal and community life.

Most founders dream about the day they can finally “retire.” But what happens when you actually get there, and it's not what you thought it would be?In this episode of Founder Talk, Dr. Rajeev Khanna, a former sports medicine physician who built and sold a thriving medical practice, shares how stepping away from work left him feeling restless, unfulfilled, and without purpose. After decades of treating athletes and employees across 700 companies, retirement hit harder than he expected until he found his next mission.Instead of coasting, Dr. Khanna came back to build CompCore Pro, a software company that helps businesses save millions by fixing the broken workers' compensation system. His company acts as a bridge between doctors, employers, and insurance carriers; cutting delays, improving patient outcomes, and ensuring injured employees get the right care faster and more affordably.We dive into how he turned boredom into a billion-dollar problem to solve, why the healthcare system is collapsing under middlemen, and how staying curious and purpose-driven is the real antidote to burnout.Dr. Khanna also breaks down the state of American health, from our sedentary lifestyles to the rise of convenience culture, and what both founders and everyday people can do to reverse it.You'll learn: ✅ Why chasing retirement can leave you emptier than you expect ✅ How to rebuild purpose after “success” ✅ What's broken in America's healthcare system (and how he's fixing it) ✅ How CompCore Pro is helping companies cut costs and care for employees faster ✅ Why curiosity and contribution matter more than comfortIf you've been searching “what to do after selling your business,” “how to find purpose after success,” or “why retirement isn't what it seems,” this episode delivers the truth. Because for some founders, freedom isn't the finish line — it's the start of what's next.Connect with Rajeev Khanna, M.D.Guest LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rajeev-khannamd/Guest Website: https://compcorepro.com/If you are a B2B company that wants to build your own in-house content team instead of outsourcing your content to a marketing agency, we may be a fit for you!

In this episode of the Dementia Researcher - Xxplored Women's Brain Health podcast, host Dr Laura Stankeviciute speaks with Professor Claudia Barth from Charite University and Dr Gillian Coughlan from Harvard Medical School to examine the midlife transition, menopause and its significance for women's brain health. Together they outline what the menopause truly involves across the early, late, and post stages, and explain how hormonal change affects brain structure, energy use, mood, and cognition. They also explore why this period may coincide with greater vulnerability to later Alzheimer's disease and discuss the role of early or surgical menopause, symptom severity, and gaps in existing research cohorts. The episode highlights the need for richer reproductive data, real time biomarker studies, and closer collaboration with digital health tools to better capture women's lived experiences. It reflects a growing wave of research and public interest aimed at improving understanding, support, and evidence based care during this important life stage. -- Takeaways ● Menopause is a long transition shaped by fluctuating hormones. ● Cognitive and mood symptoms reflect changes in brain networks. ● Earlier menopause is linked with increased later Alzheimer's risk. ● Major research cohorts lack detailed reproductive data. ● New real time studies are beginning to track symptoms and biomarkers. ● Digital tools will be key for future research. ● Better global representation is needed across studies. ● Momentum is building to close long standing gaps in women's health. -- Find bios on all our speakers, a full transcript of the show and more on our website at https://www.dementiaresearcher.nihr.ac.uk - Follow us on social media: https://www.instagram.com/dementia_researcher/ https://www.facebook.com/Dementia.Researcher/ https://www.twitter.com/demrescommunity https://www.linkedin.com/company/dementia-researcher https://www.bsky.app/profile/dementiare…archer.bsky.social -- Download and Register with our Community App: https://www.onelink.to/dementiaresearcher -- Chapters 00:00 Introduction to Menopause and Research Focus 07:25 Understanding Menopause: Definitions and Stages 16:27 Menopause and Alzheimer's Disease: A Critical Connection 22:43 Understanding Menopause and Brain Health 25:21 Historical Blind Spots in Alzheimer's Research 26:38 The Importance of Reproductive Variables 31:46 Biomarkers and Methodologies in Women's Health Research 35:28 Industry Collaboration in Research 39:00 Personal Reflections on Women's Brain Health

In this episode of The Light Inside, we delve into the intricate dynamics of limerence and its connection to attachment trauma. Joined by licensed psychotherapist Leah Marrone, author of Serial Fixer: Breaking Free of the Habit of Solving Other People's Problems, we explore how unresolved attachment imprints shape our behaviors and relationships.Limerence, often mistaken for intense longing, is revealed as a response to old wounds, manifesting as hypervigilance, overfunctioning, and a compulsive need to fix or rescue others. These patterns, while appearing as care, often mask deeper fears of abandonment and a struggle for self-worth.Leah shares insights on how early attachment experiences condition us to regulate anxiety by overcommitting to others' needs, often at the expense of our own well-being. We discuss the importance of self-awareness, setting boundaries, and the power of validation in creating healthy, balanced relationships.Throughout the conversation, we emphasize the need for practitioners and caregivers to recognize their own patterns of overfunctioning and to cultivate self-trust and resilience. By doing so, we can better support others without falling into the trap of serial fixing.Tune in to learn how to navigate these complex dynamics and foster genuine connections that allow for mutual growth and healing."Serial Fixer: Breaking Free of The Habit of Solving Other People's Problems"Timestamps:00:00:00 - Introduction to Limerence and Attachment Trauma00:01:15 - Mint Mobile Advertisement00:02:19 - Limerence and Attachment Patterns00:03:04 - Introduction of Guest: Leah Marrone00:03:42 - Childhood Conditioning and Over-committing00:06:02 - Hyper-responsibility and Nervous System Safety00:08:10 - Emotional Suppression and Connection00:10:39 - Threat and Safety in Emotional Responses00:12:48 - Recognizing Somatic Cues00:15:02 - Differentiating Roles in Relationships00:18:09 - Supporting vs. Solving in Therapy00:21:03 - Invisible Labor and Emotional Interactions00:24:01 - Urgency and Shame in Fixing Behavior00:27:04 - Effective Listening and Present Moment Awareness00:30:19 - Building Resilience and Self-trust00:33:04 - Vulnerability in Guiding Conversations00:36:09 - Holding Space and Managing Tension00:38:46 - Monitoring Unconscious Over-resourcing00:41:15 - Social Stigma and Mental Health00:43:57 - Self-martyrdom in Caregiving Roles00:45:36 - Personal Reflection on Fixing Behavior—CreditsFeatured Guest: Leah MaroneHost: Jeffrey BeseckerExecutive Program Director: Anna GetzProduction Team: Aloft Media GroupMusic: Courtesy of Aloft Media GroupConnect with host Jeffrey Besecker on LinkedIn.Music by Aloft Meade and Jeffrey Besecker“Anxiety Effect” by Aloft Media“Falling Down”  written by Aloft Media“Wanting and Waiting” by Aloft Media

The discussion dives into the theory of disgust and the innovative concept of 'good contamination,' describing how Jesus is seen as a transformative contaminant for good.

Romans 7 presents us with one of the most raw and vulnerable passages in all of Scripture, where we encounter the apostle Paul wrestling with a tension that every believer knows intimately: the struggle between who we are in Christ and the sin that still clings to our flesh. This passage doesn't offer us a polished, perfect Christianity—instead, it invites us into the messy reality of spiritual transformation. We discover that being saved doesn't make us perfect; it makes us forgiven. The profound truth here is that we are no longer 'in the flesh' but we are still 'of the flesh'—we've been freed from sin's dominion, yet we still battle its presence. Paul's honest confession 'I do not understand my own actions' resonates deeply because it mirrors our own experience. We find ourselves doing the very things we hate and failing to do the good we desire. This isn't a sign that our salvation is invalid; rather, it's evidence of the spiritual war raging within every Christ-follower. The beauty emerges when Paul asks not 'what will deliver me?' but 'who will deliver me?'—pointing us away from self-help solutions toward the only One who can truly save us. The answer comes thundering through: 'Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord,' followed immediately by the liberating declaration of Romans 8:1—'There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.' We're reminded that our Father stands with arms wide open, not waiting to condemn us for our failures, but inviting us to run to Him with every struggle, every sin, every moment of weakness.### Detailed Sermon Notes**Introduction:**- Pastor Will introduces himself and shares his recent mission trip to Malawi and South Africa. He emphasizes the gratitude for the church's support, which enables partnerships and gospel sharing in extremely impoverished regions.**Scripture Focus (Romans 7:13-25):**- **Struggle with Sin:** - Paul's honesty about his battle with sin highlights a universal Christian experience. - Believers are of the flesh yet in Christ, creating a tension of living according to the Spirit while wrestling with sinful nature. - Paul's question, "Why do I do what I don't want to do?" resonates with many believers.**Life as a Journey:**- **Analogy of the River:** - Life's path before Christ is like flowing downstream. Conversion is the turning point, representing the choice to paddle upstream against worldly currents.**Personal Story:**- Will shares a story of his son breaking a TV and promptly confessing, illustrating how God desires us to come to Him after we fail, instead of trying to fix things on our own.**Main Points:**- **Human Nature vs. Divine Calling:** - Despite being saved, Christians have an ongoing struggle with sin due to their fleshly nature. - Quoting John MacArthur, Will explains that believers are not "in" the flesh but "of" it, highlighting the continuous internal conflict.**Closing Message:**- Only Jesus, not human efforts, can deliver from sin's power.- Encourages transparency within the church, fostering a community where individuals can confess struggles without judgment.### Practical Applications1. **Embrace Transparency:**  - Cultivate authentic relationships within the church by admitting and discussing personal struggles.2. **Run to God:**  - Develop a habit of confessing sins to God promptly and seeking His strength to overcome, rather than relying on self-improvement techniques.3. **Rely on Grace:**  - Focus on understanding and relying on God's grace through Christ, rather than attempting to achieve righteousness through personal effort.4. **Scripture Engagement:**  - Regularly read and meditate on Scripture to reinforce the truth of God's grace and the ongoing internal battle with sin.### Discussion Questions1. **Personal Reflection:**  - Describe a time when you felt like Paul, struggling between your desires and your actions. How did you handle it?2. **The Role of Grace:**  - How can embracing God's grace daily help you in your struggle against sin?3. **Community Support:**  - In what ways can you contribute to making the church a more open and accepting environment for vulnerability and authenticity?4. **Prayerful Dependence:**  - What steps can you take to run to God and seek His help whenever you face temptation or failure?

An explosive conversation packed with truth bombs, deep insights, and revelations that lift the veil on the world's most hidden agendas. Michael Jaco and world-renowned investigator Ole Dammegard come together for a high-impact discussion exposing the dark machinery behind global deception — from orchestrated false flag operations to the manipulation of public perception through fear and propaganda. Ole shares shocking evidence from decades of research into government cover-ups, media corruption, and the recycled tactics used by intelligence agencies to maintain control. Together, he and Michael connect the dots between political assassinations, staged terror events, and the rise of psychological warfare being waged on the masses. The conversation expands to current geopolitical tensions, mass migration strategies, and the spiritual war underlying humanity's struggle for truth and freedom. They also discuss how awareness, intuition, and divine courage can help dismantle these dark systems and usher in a new age of collective awakening. This episode is not for the faint of heart — it's for the truth-seekers, the awakened, and the warriors of light ready to face the reality of what's unfolding on our planet.

Podcast Episode SynopsisEpisode Title: Distress' Impact on Your BodyHost IntroductionIn this episode, Dr. Ali Novitsky, expert in obesity medicine and founder of The FIT Collective, continues her series on stress—this time focusing on how stress impacts the body. Dr. Ali keeps this episode concise and reflective, encouraging listeners to pause and connect with how stress shows up physically.Key Points Discussed1. Physical Impacts of StressJoint Pains and Muscle Recovery: Dr. Ali explains that elevated cortisol during stress can delay recovery and increase joint or muscle pain.Heightened Irritability and Tension: Stress raises irritability and muscle tightness. Dr. Ali suggests a quick body scan—especially noticing how high the shoulders are—as a simple stress check.Perimenopause and Stress: Stress can amplify perimenopausal symptoms such as night sweats and hot flashes. Dr. Ali references research showing that gentle, low-impact exercise (like walking or stretching) can lessen these effects.Immunity and Hormones: Chronic stress impacts immune function through cortisol and insulin dysregulation. High insulin promotes water retention and inflammation, increasing risk for long-term conditions such as heart disease and cancer.2. Personal Reflection and Daily PracticeDr. Ali invites listeners to notice the specific ways stress manifests in their own bodies. She shares that for her, stress often looks like:Speaking rapidlyPoor sleepEmotional eatingDigestive issuesHeadaches or muscle sorenessShe encourages creating a daily “body check-in” practice—noticing tension, breath, and posture throughout the day. Awareness is the first step to release.3. Self-Compassion Over CriticismDr. Ali emphasizes that judgment and self-criticism amplify stress, while self-compassion lowers it. She reminds listeners that it's normal to feel stressed and that progress, not perfection, is the goal. Replacing inner criticism with phrases like “I'm doing my best right now” supports both emotional and physical resilience.4. Actionable StepsDr. Ali closes with three takeaways listeners can begin today:Acknowledge Stress: Recognize how stress physically shows up in your body—fatigue, muscle tension, or irritability.Daily Check-In: Build a brief daily practice to notice posture, breath, or areas of tightness.Self-Compassion Plan: Practice kindness toward yourself—affirm that stress is a human experience and that rest and recovery are productive.ConclusionDr. Ali concludes by reminding listeners that acknowledging stress is the first step in managing it. The body keeps the score, but with awareness, movement, rest, and self-compassion, we can heal and thrive. She encourages listeners to be gentle with themselves and to prioritize recovery just as much as performance.Timestamps00:00:06 – Introduction & Overview00:01:10 – Physical Impact of Stress00:01:20 – Joint Pain & Delayed Recovery00:02:13 – Perimenopause & Stress00:02:24 – Exercise & Menopause Symptoms00:03:17 – Immunity & Hormones00:03:38 – Cortisol and Insulin00:04:21 – Inflammation & Water Retention00:05:03 – GLP-1 and Heart Health00:05:14 – Body Carries Stress00:05:24 – Personal Stress Symptoms00:06:09 – Daily Body Check-In00:06:31 – Exercise as Emotional Regulator00:06:53 – Personal Experience with Stress00:07:45 – Managing Stress Strategies00:08:07 – Daily Awareness Practice00:09:20 – Rest, Nutrition, Activity00:09:41 – Self-Compassion Practice00:11:06 – Movement & Stress Relief00:12:11 – Transform Program & Stress QuizWork with Dr. Ali

1. Hostage Remains and Psychological Warfare The podcast opens with a news story from the Jerusalem Post about Hamas returning partial remains to Israel. These remains were not from known hostages, which the speaker describes as a form of psychological torture against Israeli families. The Red Cross acted as an intermediary in the handover, but Hamas did not specify whose remains were being returned. 2. Personal Reflections and Pilgrimage Ben then shares that this trip to Israel is a spiritual journey, visiting sites related to Jesus and expressing feelings of safety and peace in Jerusalem. Encourages others to visit Israel, stating it feels safe despite the conflict. 3. Rise of Antisemitism in the U.S. A major theme is the alleged rise of antisemitism among American conservatives. Specific figures mentioned include Candace Owens, Tucker Carlson, and Nick Fuentes, accused of downplaying Israel’s importance as a U.S. ally. The speaker references Senator Ted Cruz, who warned of a “growing cancer” of antisemitism on the political right and urged Christian leaders to confront it. 4. Media Criticism Ben criticizes mainstream media for allegedly portraying Israel as the aggressor and failing to tell the stories of Israeli victims and hostages. 5. Support for Donald Trump Ben praises Donald Trump’s leadership, particularly his role in the Abraham Accords and efforts to secure the release of hostages. Expresses gratitude from Israelis for Trump’s support and contrasts it with previous U.S. administrations. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

The Book and Its Premise (Order Eric's new Book HERE!) Under Siege is presented as Eric Trump’s account of what is “the greatest governmental corruption this nation has ever seen.” Trump and is family were victims of political persecution, media bias, and systemic weaponization of institutions. Claims of Government “Weaponization” Eric Trump accuses the DOJ, FBI, and state-level prosecutors (Letitia James, Alvin Bragg, Jack Smith, etc.) of targeting his family for political reasons. He recounts the FBI raid on Mar-a-Lago as an overreach and describes it as “staged” and politically motivated.

Debanking and Corporate Retaliation Eric Trump says that hundreds of bank accounts belonging to Trump businesses and affiliates were closed due to political pressure.

Financial and Legal Struggles The family spent around $400 million defending themselves from investigations and lawsuits. Describes how banks, courts, and insurance companies were allegedly pressured to avoid doing business with the Trump Organization. Personal Reflections and Family Dynamics Speaks warmly of his father as a calm, strong leader under pressure and a strict but loving parent.
