In this episode of the Man Within podcast, Sathiya Sam discusses the evolving perception of masculinity and status in contemporary culture. He argues that self-control has emerged as a new status symbol, contrasting sharply with the traditional notions of excess and indulgence. Sathiya emphasizes that while society has celebrated consumption and indulgence, true strength lies in the ability to exercise restraint. He draws on biblical references, particularly the life of King Solomon, to illustrate the pitfalls of excess and the importance of self-control in achieving emotional maturity and leadership.

Episode 299 of The Rainmaking Podcast features Scott Love in conversation with Darren Wurz (author of The Lawyer Millionaire) on the most common personal-finance pitfalls attorneys face—and how to avoid them. Darren's #1 warning is lifestyle creep: as income rises, spending rises with it (bigger house, cars, memberships, kids' expenses), leaving high earners with surprisingly thin savings and heavy monthly burn. The fix starts with a mindset shift: define what truly drives happiness, think in concrete terms about “future you” (age + timeline), and recognize that money is a finite resource—especially when credit cards make overspending frictionless. From there, Darren shares a simple, tactical system for busy lawyers who hate budgeting: bank-account-based cash flow management (a “Profit First”-style approach). Income flows into an “income” account, then automatically gets allocated into separate accounts for bills (recurring expenses), spending (guilt-free discretionary), savings/investing, and taxes—so you always know what's available and you're prepared for quarterly tax hits. He recommends reviewing finances weekly (or at least twice monthly) to keep the data familiar and actionable.

Humans in the loop are, in theory, supposed to be as much a part of all conversations surrounding the use of generative artificial intelligence tools as a way to safeguard against major mistakes. But as GovCon attorney David Timm has found out, errors showing misuse of the technology are starting to come up in bid protests and other legal rulings that show what can go wrong when relying on the tech too much. Timm, a partner at the law firm Burr & Forman, joins our Ross Wilkers for this episode to share his findings from those decisions and how they could help set some guardrails for the use of GenAI in GovCon law. Even with the problems he sees, Timm is an optimist for how the tech can remove what he calls “Entropy” from workflows and make some tasks easier.

In this special daily editorial, we are joined by Rick Rule, Founder of Rule Investment Media and Battle Bank. Rick provides a candid look at his recent portfolio maneuvers, explaining the logic behind selling physical silver to rotate into high-quality equities. We dive deep into the valuation disconnects currently plaguing the resource sector and why "boring" large-cap energy producers might be the smartest play for the next five years. Discussion Highlights: Silver Portfolio Rotation: Rick discusses selling 80% of his physical silver and 25% of his junior mining positions following recent parabolic moves to eliminate downside risk while maintaining upside through select silver stocks. The Silver/Stock Valuation Gap: Why silver equities are currently priced for $45 silver while the spot price sits significantly higher, creating a massive opportunity for a re-rating in high-quality miners. Energy Sector Outlook: An analysis of the under-investment in sustaining capital within the oil and gas industry and why Rick is favoring Canadian mid-tiers and majors like Exxon Mobil (XOM) and Schlumberger (SLB). The Pitfalls of Mining Metrics: A breakdown of why the "ounces in the ground" metric is often misleading and the importance of focusing on All-In Sustaining Costs (AISC) and Return on Capital Employed (ROIC).

Episode 79 - Clinical Research Pearls and Pitfalls by AABIP

[Mark 11:1-26] Four pitfalls to a fruitful Christian life.

Welcome to episode 319 of Grow Your Law Firm, hosted by Ken Hardison. On today's episode, Ken is joined by David Carrier, a Michigan-based estate planning and elder law attorney and Founder of the Law Offices of David L. Carrier, P.C., with more than three decades of experience helping families protect and preserve life-changing assets. The conversation explores a critical but often overlooked issue for personal injury attorneys: what happens to clients after they receive a major settlement. Ken and David discuss why large awards frequently disappear within months, the psychology behind sudden wealth, and the ethical opportunity law firms have to guide clients beyond the resolution of the case. David explains how tools like irrevocable trusts, structured distributions, and professional co-trustees can help prevent settlements from being lost to overspending, creditors, or poor investments. The discussion also highlights how offering post-settlement guidance can deepen client trust, improve long-term outcomes, and create lasting referral relationships. What you'll learn in this episode:   Why Life-Changing Settlements Often Disappear - How most large awards are spent within 12–18 months - The psychological patterns behind sudden wealth loss Protecting Clients Beyond the Case Resolution - Why "here's your check" isn't enough - The ethical responsibility attorneys have after a settlement Using Irrevocable Trusts to Preserve Wealth - How trusts protect assets from creditors and bad decisions - Why access with structure matters more than lump sums Avoiding the Pitfalls of Annuities and Windfalls - Why annuities often fail to solve long-term problems - How structured planning slows spending and improves outcomes Turning Post-Settlement Care Into Long-Term Value - Strengthening client relationships through ongoing guidance - How better follow-through leads to trust, referrals, and reputation growth Resources:  Website: davidcarrierlaw.com LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/davidlcarrier Facebook: facebook.com/DavidCarrierLawInstagram: instagram.com/davidcarrier_law/?hl=en   Additional Resources:    https://www.pilmma.org/the-mastermind-effect https://www.pilmma.org/resources https://www.pilmma.org/mastermind AI for PI Expo:   www.pilmma.org/ai-for-pi-expo

Julie Nelson has been practicing Zen Buddhism for more than 20 years. Along the way, she was deemed accomplished enough and dedicated enough to become a teacher in the Soto tradition. Hence her other name, Seido Sensei. She has contributed articles to Tricycle magazine, writes on her own blog, and she's the author of a book titled Practicing Safe Zen: Navigating the Pitfalls on the Road to Liberation. She is also an emeritus professor of economics from the University of Massachusetts, Boston, has two kids and two grandkids, and lives in New Hampshire. In Julie's own words: “her spiritual home is the Greater Boston Zen Community, a group that experienced three waves of teacher abuses of power. She is deeply saddened when people, either in addition to or instead of realizing benefits from their work with a spiritual teacher, suffer great harm.” The central focus of this conversation is the vital importance ethical behavior among spiritual teachers, institutional accountability, and the protection of vulnerable students.

In this episode, Dan and Mason get real about what rural land development actually looks like when you're doing it right now, not just talking about the upside. They share the problems showing up inside live deals, and why “one small detail” in due diligence can wipe out an otherwise perfect project.They walk through the big repeat offenders, access and roads. State highways, driveway permits, line of sight, drainage dips, and county rules can turn a great parcel into a dead deal fast. They also call out the stuff you only catch in person, easements that don't match the actual road, neighbors who block or fight access, and why walking the property is still one of the highest ROI moves you can make.From there, they zoom out to the decisions that separate a clean project from a painful one. Lot count versus road cost, what buyers in that area actually want, and how demand shifts when you offer terms instead of relying on cash comps. They share simple ways to sanity-check demand, leaning on local experts, test marketing during due diligence, and even pulling county buyer data to see where the real buyers come from.They wrap with the other deal-killers they keep on a checklist, water reality versus “water rights hype,” electric that looks usable but isn't, soils and septic limits, and title issues like conservation easements and leases. The takeaway is clear: rural development isn't hard because it's complicated, it's hard because it punishes assumptions.Tune in if you want the honest version of land development, the one where the win goes to whoever verifies first.===Key Topics:-Rural land planning for exempt subdivisions-Road frontage, highway access permits, and driveway feasibility-Easements that don't match the real-world access and neighbor conflicts-Buyer demand, lot size strategy, and selling with terms financing-Due diligence deal killers like water, electric, soils, title restrictions, and conservation easements===If you're selling land and still relying on Facebook messages, you're making it harder than it needs to be. Acrefy helps land investors create clean, professional dispo websites where buyers can see everything in one place. It saves time, looks legit, and helps you close faster.

As more light gets shed on the contents of Jeffrey Epstein's long sought after documents during this month's Capricorn New Moon lunar cycle which began on January 18 & hit its apex at the Leo Full Moon February 1, we see a collective aha! moment awakening process dawning.But, not everyone wants to awaken from their ideological notion that a “perfect world” means one where rich elites rule through xenophobia, racism, misogyny, gender-discrimination, etc., in order to creat an "us versus them" dynamic to stay in power.This is exemplified by Saturn's move into Mars-ruled Aries today, February 13, which combines a planet that is change resistant with a sign that is action oriented. When these two meet, there are positive strides to be made if one can commit to working hard toward the achievement of a planned goal. Slow & steady wins the race, in other words, when these two combine.Pitfalls abound, however, in that Saturn's shadow side is its rigidity & tendency to linger in the past, while Mars-ruled Aries is its impulsive & impetuous nature that may result in hasty decisions that can hurt not only oneself but others.As we approach Saturn's re-entrance into Aries from now until April 13, 2028, we might ponder how this will play both throughout the collective & in our personal lives. Right now, the example in front of us, in the U.S., at least, is in the fact that rigidity on two sides of the political spectrum will cause a partial government shutdown at midnight tonight.As both Democratic & Republican senators are deeply entrenched in their respective political positions—the former on achieving future progress, the latter on staying intractably stuck in past decisions—the result is frustration.That this frustration will hit those most impacted by a lack of funding for the Department of Homeland Security, which oversees not only the Immigration & Customs Enforcement agency (ICE) & the Customs & Border Patrol (CBP) agency, but also the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), the Transportation Security Agency (TSA), & the U.S. Coast Guard.Together, this will impact 260,000 federal employees, although not those in ICE or CBP, since they've been fully funded since Trump signed into law his big ugly bill last July which gave billions to the DHS for these agencies for years to come.The others, however, may see staff shortages and/or government employees working without pay until this stalemate is resolved. And that stalemate revolves around NOT sanctioning even MORE money for ICE & imposing a list of restrictions on how they are operating currently.AQUARIUS NEW MOON SOLAR ECLIPSE THEMES INCLUDE COMMUNICATION, PAPERWORK, & YOUNG PEOPLE...What's clear as this Capricorn New Moon lunar cycle comes to an end & the Aquarius New Moon solar eclipse heralds in a new one is that the times, they are a'changin'…This podcast takes a deep dive into the themes of not only this current set of upcoming eclipses—meaning both the Aquarius New Moon solar eclipse at 29'48” Aquarius on February 17 & the 12'40” Virgo Full Moon lunar eclipse March 3--but how these echo those from last September's set of eclipses.So, as resistance grow by those in power to investigating & acknowledging that the violation of societally agreed upon morals, ethics, & justice deserves to be revealed if not punished—you know, stuff like pedophilia, denying people due process, punishing immigrants' children with detention, etc.—so does the collectives' awareness that something is wrong.This solar eclipse's squares by the Aquarius Moon & Sun to Uranus in Taurus—as both Mercury & Venus in Aquarius's squares to Uranus have already foreshadowed—reveal that not everyone is in agreement that those in power deserve to remain protected by being allowed to remain hidden in the shadows.In addition, collective empathy for those who've been wronged has begun to grow since Mercury & Venus entered Pisces on February 6 & 9, respectively. And that includes empathy for the sexually abused young girls & women, to the innocent immigrants & U.S. citizens vilified (most often without proof), to the innocent children detained & incarcerated with a parent or who've been separated from parents & other loved ones.Such empathy will likely grow, especially since the Sun will enter Pisces February 18, following the February 17 solar eclipse. So too will the calls for change increase as the Aquarius Sun perfects its square to Uranus in Taurus between now & February 15/16, depending on your time zone.AMERICA'S (READ: THE PEOPLES') ATTORNEY GENERAL OR TRUMP'S PERSONAL ATTORNEY?This podcast explores also some revelations that come clear through an analyzation of U.S. Attorney General Pan Bondi's natal chart, even though we have no definite time of birth. This is especially relevant given her astoundingly combative & aggravatingly frustrating performance in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee February 11 as we approached Saturn's move into Aries on February 13.Born November 17, 1965, in Tampa, Florida, aspects within Bondi's chart reveal the origin of her discompassionate emotional relationship with women—as so clearly evidenced during her refusal to even acknowledge the existence, and the pain, of several Epstein sexual abuse victims during her recent Senate Judiciary hearing.A close look reveals how her lack of healthy nurturing also seems to block her ability to empathize with with women in general & sexual abuse victims specifically. That she also lacks air—with only Jupiter in Aquarius—shows her lack of objectivity on one hand but also her niche brilliance likely responsible for how far she's gotten in the legal hierarchy thus far.However, she also lacks fire, as Mercury in Sagittarius is her only planet in that element, & this can lead—as per Jungian psychological astrologer Richard Ideman—to a great deal of rage. These elemental lacks tend to appear during times of stress or crisis. After witnessing her arrogant & angry performance the other day: Ya think???Tune in to hear more about how Bondi's observable behavior—including her rage—is written in the aspects in her chart. And how, even though we don't know her Ascendant or house placements, we can still glean an awful lot about how & why she acts the way she does.Given that an attorney general works to apply the law equally to ALL Americans, her tendency toward obsessiveness (Mecury square Pluto) & evasive secretiveness (Sun/Neptune conjunction in Pluto-ruled Scorpio) tell us how she's often fallen short of that goal.There's more so be sure to give Karmic Evolution's Astrologically Speaking podcast a listen, starting today, February 13, @https://www.karmicevolution.com/astrologically-speakingLooking forward to seeing you later! Namaste…

This episode's for anyone writing speculative fiction who's ever vanished into worldbuilding “for five minutes” and resurfaced three hours later with a fully functioning sewer system and… no actual scene.This episode is about the quiet ways worldbuilding can sabotage your story when it becomes a substitute for plot, character, pacing, and reader trust. Not because worldbuilding is bad. Because it's powerful. And power needs a steering wheel.In the episode, I break down the biggest traps and how to fix them fast, including:- The World Bible Trap, where planning replaces drafting.- The Museum Tour Opening, where the story starts with a brochure.- The Encyclopaedia Dump, where exposition sits on the reader's chest.- The Currency Exchange Problem, where too many invented terms overload the brain.- The Map Is Not a Plot problem, where geography pretends it's narrative.- Rules Without Consequences, where magic and tech don't actually bite.- The Stakes Inflation Spiral, where you start with the apocalypse and have nowhere to go.- The Contradiction Sinkhole, where reader trust quietly leaks away.You'll also get a simple “worldbuilding that serves story” framework you can apply to a current WIP in 20 minutes, plus a 10-minute rewrite challenge to turn exposition into action.If you're drafting or revising fantasy, sci-fi, horror, alternate history, or slipstream, this one will give you instant traction.Listen, then try this quick diagnostic: if you cut a paragraph of worldbuilding, what actually breaks? If the answer is “nothing”… congratulations, you've found a scene-level diet plan.If you enjoy the episode, like, share, and subscribe, then come on over to www.thebookcoach.co to check out my story development service.

This time of year puts love under a spotlight.Flowers.Reservations.Big gestures.And sometimes… quiet pressure.For many years, I didn't enjoy Valentine's Day.Not because I didn't believe in love — but because something underneath it didn't feel steady.Here's what I've learned:Valentine's Day doesn't create closeness.It reveals it.If the foundation feels strong, the day is sweet, but ...If it feels strained, the holiday quietly magnifies what's already there.In this week's episode, I share something I wish someone had told me years ago — even when I was training to be a psychiatrist.Why romantic gestures can't compensate for emotional distance.Why date nights and “I-statements” only work when something deeper is already solid.And what the unseen part of a relationship truly requires.Believe me, it's not flashy.And it's not romantic in the Instagram sense.But it's the work that makes an ordinary Tuesday feel calm and connected — instead of anxious and on guard.Episode timestamps:01:13 — Why I didn't enjoy Valentine's Day in the past 02:26 — The relationship struggles no one prepares us for 04:06 — When Valentine's Day started feeling different 05:51 — Icing vs. foundation: what really sustains love 07:32 — The “unsexy” work that changes everything 09:02 — Listening to the whispers you've been ignoring 10:52 — How to start strengthening your foundationIf this season is bringing up anything — longing, disappointment, hope, or quiet frustration — this episode is for you.Happy Valentine's Day! (And the rest of your days.)May it be sweet not because of the gesture — but because of what you've been building all along.

Fernando Angelucci joins Amanda Cruise and Ash Patel to share how he scaled from single-family investing into a 55-facility self-storage portfolio by intentionally building three parallel businesses: marketing, capital raising, and operations. He explains why focusing on direct-to-seller acquisitions and seller financing helped insulate his deals from rising interest rates, and how working directly with community banks allows for long-term construction-to-permanent debt. The conversation also covers SEC compliance, what actually defines a “sophisticated investor,” and why many syndicators ran into trouble relying on short-term bridge debt. Fernando challenges the idea that self-storage is broadly overbuilt, arguing that demand is hyper-local and increasingly driven by housing affordability pressures.

In this episode, Anderson attorneys Amanda Wynalda, Esq., and Eliot Thomas, Esq., tackle listener questions on tax strategies for real estate investors and traders. They explain the tax implications of house flipping, including when to report income and how installment sales affect taxation. Amanda and Eliot discuss transitioning from a disregarded LLC to an S Corporation for managing rentals and flipping properties, emphasizing the importance of avoiding dealer status. They dive deep into 1031 exchange requirements, including timing constraints, qualified intermediaries, and the rules for converting investment property to a primary residence. Other topics include home office deductions versus reimbursements, deducting mileage for consultants with administrative offices, optimal business structures for active stock trading, differences between S and C Corporations, and the tax consequences of using corporate equipment for personal use. Tune in for expert guidance on maximizing tax savings while maintaining compliance! Submit your tax question to taxtuesday@andersonadvisors.com Highlights/Topics:   [00:00] Intro [06:26] I purchased a home for $12,000 in 2025 for flipping. Do I show it on my taxes at all or only after I flip? How do I calculate the taxes from flipping? If I want to sell a flip on installments – how does that change the tax? Report only after sale; calculate as ordinary income plus self-employment tax. [10:02[ What do you recommend to transition from a disregarded LLC to S Corp for managing rentals and doing house flipping as well? Use separate S or C Corporation to avoid dealer status. [14:10] I'd like to do a 1031 Exchange and eventually move into the property as my primary residence. How quickly can I do that? Wait 24 months with proper rental use before converting to residence. [19:03] What are some of the pitfalls of a 1031 exchange to focus on? Timing deadlines, qualified intermediary requirement, and boot recognition are critical pitfalls. [29:28] Can my S Corporation pay rent to me for my home office? And if so, is this considered personal income? Use accountable plan reimbursements instead to avoid taxable rental income. [33:32] If I am a consultant and take a gig at a company 35 miles from my S-Corporation's administrative office, can I write off the costs to get to the facility on the days I work there? Yes, with administrative office, mileage becomes deductible business travel expense. [36:41] What's the best business structure setup for active stock trading? Limited partnership with C Corporation general partner provides optimal tax benefits. [42:19] What are the differences between an S Corporation and a C Corporation for an LLC? S Corporation flows through; C Corporation pays flat 21 percent rate. [47:25] If I move equipment into my C corporation, can I still use it for personal use? Personal use over 50 percent creates taxable fringe benefit complications.

Unmasking Political Rhetoric: Human Rights, Childcare Reforms, and the Myth of Violent ChangeIn this episode of the Last Gay Conservative podcast, Chad Law delves into significant political and social issues. Beginning with a critique of Olympian Amber Glenn's statements about LGBTQ human rights violations under the Trump administration, Chad challenges the lack of specific evidence and the misuse of the term 'human rights.' Next, the podcast addresses the highly regulated childcare sector, discussing how heavy regulations can drive up costs, limit access, and create unnecessary bureaucracy. Finally, Chad dispels the notion that violence is an effective method for political change, using historical and statistical evidence to advocate for non-violent strategies such as organized pressure and disciplined movements. The episode calls for honesty in political rhetoric, balanced policy analysis, and a return to substantive civic education over ideological indoctrination.00:00 Introduction and Show Overview00:40 Olympian's Human Rights Claim01:50 Debunking Human Rights Violations04:23 Economic and Cultural Progress10:38 Childcare Crisis and Government Regulations22:31 Violence vs. Non-Violence in Social Change24:41 The Power of Nonviolent Movements25:20 Revisiting the Civil Rights Movement26:37 Global Examples of Nonviolent Success27:42 The Pitfalls of Violent Revolutions28:32 Modern Movements and the Failure of Violence34:44 The Role of Education in Shaping Minds36:34 The Impact of Political Messaging on Children42:54 The Importance of Civics Education44:53 Final Thoughts on Nonviolence and Education

This is the true story of seven strangers picked to live in a house, work together, and have their lives taped. Find out what happens when people stop being polite and start getting real…. The Real World. Eric Nies steps Behind The Rope. Mr. Eric Nies was part of the granddaddy of all of reality TV, the original Real World, New York, Season One. THE show that changed, introduced, formed and revolutionized Reality TV. With no prior reality show to look to, we discuss how that makes the Real World, New York, Season One possibly the most authentic reality TV show ever. Eric discusses his hesitations to do certain things not knowing how the final product would turn out and the influence of producers and editing back then. Eric discusses what MTV was like back in the day when it played music all day and how he thought the Real World would maybe be a little show that a few people watched. On that note, we talk about how life suddenly changed once the show aired and became a blockbuster of supreme magnitude. We discuss his house mates Julie, Norman, Heather, Kevin, Becky and Andre and who he keeps in touch with today. He explains how once the Real World ended he was offered the gig as host of Club MTV, which led to MTV's The Grind (also featuring a pre RHOBH Camille Grammer), which led to The Grind Workout Videos, which led to a long career as both a Competitor and Host of the classic MTV juggernaut The Challenge. He had movie offers, modeling offers and who could forget that Bruce Weber photoshoot book he was in with his brother (Google It). Being the hot commodity in town, no one said no. Money, fame, booze, drugs, women, anything at his fingertips that he wanted, Eric seemingly had it all. Until he didn't. With an addictive personality, Eric finally hit rock bottom and had his “aha" moment when he realized he needed to transform his life. Eric and David discuss the aftermath of being in the spotlight, how fame is possibly the most addictive drug of all, the highs and lows of the entertainment business and how to navigate it successfully and come out the other side. @nies.eric @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef BONUS & AD FREE EPISODES Available at - www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope  BROUGHT TO YOU BY: GROW THERAPY - GrowTherapy.com/VELVET (Whatever Challenges You're Facing, Grow Therapy Is Here To Help QUINCE - quince.com/velvetrope (Get Free Shipping and 365 Day Returns to As You Indulge In Affordable Luxury) MOOD - www.mood.com/velvet (20% Off With Code Velvet on Federally Legal THC Shipped Right To Your Door) ADVERTISING INQUIRIES - Please contact David@advertising-execs.com MERCH Available at - https://www.teepublic.com/stores/behind-the-velvet-rope?ref_id=13198 Learn more about your ad choices.

In this eye-opening episode, Nurse Erica sits down with Bob Funk, creator of LaborLab, the only nonprofit watchdog organization tracking corporate spending on union-busting. Bob pulls back the curtain on the multi-million dollar industry dedicated to keeping healthcare workers from organizing, revealing how hospitals and healthcare systems spend millions of dollars on union-busting consultants. They explore LaborLab's union-buster tracker and discuss the common tactics employers use to discourage nurses from organizing, from captive audience meetings to intimidation and retaliation. Bob explains the Labor Management Reporting and Disclosure Act of 1959 and how the LM-20 forms are supposed to work—along with the troubling reality that many employers and union-busters simply don't comply with legally required financial reporting. The conversation dives into the "persuader loophole" that allows consultants to hide their anti-union activities and discuss why the PRO Act matters for nursing. They don't shy away from the controversial topic of scab nurses and the damage strike-breaking causes to both patient care and the profession. Whether you're curious about organizing, already involved in union efforts, or just want to understand the forces working against nurses' collective power, this episode is essential listening!

Nearly 11% of U.S. adults meet criteria for a convincing food allergy, yet most clinicians underestimate both the prevalence and unique challenges of adult-onset disease. This episode addresses the frequent misdiagnosis and clinical uncertainty surrounding new symptoms in adults by highlighting epidemiology, risk factors for delayed and severe reactions, high-yield history-taking, diagnostic pitfalls, and guideline-supported use of specific IgE and component-resolved diagnostics. Listeners will learn to distinguish allergy from intolerance, understand psychosocial burdens, apply evidence-based testing algorithms, and recognize when to refer for oral food challenge or advanced management. With practical insights into differential diagnosis, best practices for test interpretation, and strategies to streamline care in busy settings, this episode equips providers to close the adult allergy diagnosis gap and optimize patient safety.

In this episode, Hunt Priest joins to discuss the intersection of psychedelic experiences and religion. Hunt is the founder of Ligare: A Christian Psychedelic Society and was a participant in the Johns Hopkins/NYU Psilocybin Study for Religious Leaders in 2016. The epiphanies he had at Hopkins forever changed the trajectory of his work and led him to start Ligare in 2021. In this conversation, Hunt Priest reflects on how participating in the Johns Hopkins study reshaped his understanding of Christianity, embodiment, and spiritual experience. Drawing on his background as an Episcopal priest, he explores the deep resonance between psychedelic experiences and Christianity, arguing that non-ordinary states of consciousness have always been central to religious life, even if institutional churches have often marginalized them. The discussion ranges from spiritual emergence and theological disruption to healing, discernment, and the role clergy can play in preparation and integration. Hunt also shares his own profound embodied experience during the study where he encountered Vedic and Upanishadic concepts firsthand. He explains how it ultimately led him to found Ligare, a Christian psychedelic society aimed at bridging psychedelics, healing, and the Christian mystical tradition.   In this episode, you'll hear: Hunt's ideas of how psychedelic experiences connect with Christian sacraments and liturgical practices How psychedelics connect with understandings of religious pluralism and the diversity of spiritual experiences Resources for working through ideas that psychedelic experiences could be sinful or demonic Hunt's thoughts on navigating theological disruption, spiritual emergence, and expanded images of God Why embodiment and bodily wisdom are central to spiritual insight and healing The vital opportunity institutional religion risks missing in the current psychedelic renaissance   Quotes: "I think there's a lot of us [clergy] out there that understand that the spiritual issues that come up with psychedelics are important and need to be tended to in a sensitive way—in an open minded way, an open hearted way." [14:36] "The Church has, over time, taught people to not trust their minds or their bodies. And that's a huge mistake because our bodies keep the score and they also are one of the places we hold wisdom—which was the biggest lesson I got from the first experience I had at Hopkins." [17:39] "That's why the spiritual care professionals could be so important: when these issues, these spirit big spiritual questions or even a collapse of your own theological framework happens, you need help to put it back together. And just like therapy helps us put our emotional life back together, I think a good spiritual director or spiritual advisor—one-on-one or small group work—can help us put our theology back together."
