10 years in the trade. Still not certified. Not because of skills but because of fear.In this episode, we sit down with Ruben Young, Host of The Young Electrician Podcast, to unpack why thousands of electricians delay getting certified and how that fear is costing them everything from income to confidence.Raised on the streets of LA, Ruben didn't get certified until year 10. Not because he lacked skill, but because of one thing most electricians don't talk about: Confidence.This isn't just a tips and tricks episode. It's a real-deal story of fighting through limiting beliefs, addiction, jail time, and coming out on the other side to help others escape the same mental traps. Ruben's now helping electricians walk out of fear and into their certification with confidence by walking with them.
本集節目由 天下文化Podcast與郝聲音 共同製作。由主持人郝旭烈(郝哥)與賴佩霞老師對談,她的新書《靜心的力量》 一開始,郝哥分享了他個人的經驗,從身體不適、睡眠困擾到嘗試冥想的過程。他發現即使身體靜下來,心卻依然翻騰,這讓他理解「靜心」並非只是外表的安靜,而是內在真正的安定。賴佩霞老師順著這個話題談到,許多人只有在生病或崩潰後才開始學習靜心,實際上這是一種遲來的學習。如果我們能早些理解如何讓心安定,就不需要走到極端的身心失衡。 佩霞老師說,當人靜下來時,會發現腦中有無數自動運轉的雜念與思維模式。剛開始閉上眼睛,看不到外在世界,反而更清楚看到內在的混亂。靜心的練習,讓人學會「觀照」這些念頭,而不是被它們牽著走。佩霞老師老師指出,人的頭腦天生有「製造問題—解決問題」的傾向,當問題暫時解決,它又會創造新的問題,這是頭腦為了「求生存」而不停預測未來的機制。若不自覺地被頭腦帶著走,我們就會陷入無止盡的焦慮與不安。 焦慮讓我們更容易被操弄,也讓我們誤以為「忙碌」等於「有價值」。但事實上,唯有當人靜下來、感受到自己仍然安然無恙,才有機會清楚看見什麼是真正重要的事。 在談到社會對立與分裂時,佩霞老師提出一個重要的觀點:人與人之間的衝突往往不是本質上的敵意,而是因為有人從「分裂」中得利。只要我們被情緒挑起、產生對立,那些操弄情緒的力量就能獲利。她提醒大家要思考「誰是分裂你與我之間的得利者?」當我們有這樣的覺察,就不容易被情緒綁架。 她也把這樣的洞察帶回家庭層面:夫妻、長輩、孩子之間的衝突,其實也可能源自於恐懼或需求。若能靜下來看見背後的動機,就能化對立為合作,成為彼此的盟友,而不是敵人。她用「分工合作、同一團隊」來比喻家庭關係——每個人都有自己的責任範圍,學會溝通、協調,事情自然會順。 郝哥談到自己靜不下來時,腦中常有愧疚與焦慮,總覺得「欠人家什麼」,每天被那種責任感推著走。 佩霞老師老師則說,這正是現代人普遍的現象,被「要更努力」「要更好」的信念困住。她鼓勵大家學習溫柔地說「不」,誠實面對自己的負荷,讓心有喘息的空間。 最後,佩霞老師告訴我們,「靜心就是回到當下」。只有當我們停下來,承認自己的緊張、焦慮、恐懼,並溫柔地安撫自己,才有能力轉念、轉化。 靜心讓人能夠清楚地看見事實,不再被故事牽著走,也能在混亂的世界中,仍然保有內在的安穩與力量。 Powered by Firstory Hosting
本集節目由 天下文化Podcast與郝聲音 共同製作。由主持人郝旭烈(郝哥)與賴佩霞老師對談,她的新書《靜心的力量》 延續上一集的對談,郝哥談到現代人從小被教育要拼搏、要成功、要比較,這樣的成長環境雖然培養了成就,但也在心裡埋下焦慮與壓力。他以自身經驗分享,曾因身體病倒而被迫放下高壓的工作,才真正開始接觸「養心」與「靜心」的重要性。這讓他體會到:「心不定,身就會亂」,而靜心並非容易的事,特別是在資訊爆炸、大家都「忙得理所當然」的時代,想要「不忙」反而會感到愧疚。 佩霞老師回應「靜心很難」這個觀念。她指出,當我們覺得一件事情難,它就真的會變難;那是一種思維的框架。因此第一步是「解除標籤」,不再給靜心貼上「困難」的定義。她強調靜心其實非常容易,只需要有意識地提醒自己。 她舉例北歐企業的制度:每天固定時間,全公司會停止一切運作,安靜五分鐘。這樣的短暫靜止,反而提升了效率與健康,甚至減少請假。她建議我們也可以為自己設定小段時間,讓頭腦放鬆、呼吸回到身體裡。 佩霞老師提醒我們靜心的目的,就是讓我們能誠實而溫柔地面對自己。「問問自己怎麼了?需要什麼幫助?不要再罵自己,也不要批判別人。」這才是真正的愛與修行。 郝哥引用薩古魯的話:「一年給自己兩個禮拜什麼都不做,作為對自己的禮物。」佩霞老師補充說,其實每天都能給自己一點「靜的時間」。 她回憶《轉念的力量》裡的一句提醒:當煩惱來時,先分辨那是老天的事、別人的事還是自己的事。如果是自己的事,就好好照顧自己。她也笑說,自己現在退了很多群組、少上無謂的課,只為讓心靜下來,把時間還給自己。 節目的尾聲,佩霞老師再次強調:「靜心不是逃避,而是回家。」當我們能讓心安定下來,身體、情緒、關係乃至生命的方向都會自然變好。 邀請每個人回到自己內在最柔軟的地方,用愛與覺知,重新與生命連結。 Powered by Firstory Hosting

這集《天下文化 Podcast》中,主持人郝旭烈(郝哥)分享一本讓許多父母深有共鳴的教養書,丘美珍的《工作媽媽學會的事》。 作者丘美珍曾是雜誌總編輯,為了三個孩子毅然離開職場,全心陪伴十二年。直到孩子們陸續上大學,她才發現自己陷入財務不獨立、人生缺乏故事的困境,於是選擇重返職場,再次找到工作的成就與快樂。她的經歷成了許多父母的借鏡:如何在家庭與自我之間取得平衡。 郝哥特別喜歡書中一句話:「陪伴有時,放飛有時,保有自我。」他認為這三個概念就是養育與自我成長的精髓。陪伴意味著愛與連結,放飛象徵孩子終將獨立,而父母仍需保有自我,不該在孩子長大後失去生活的重心。 郝哥將書中的核心收斂為五大重點。 首先是「陪伴能夠成就愛」。真正難忘的時光不是監督課業,而是與孩子一起做飯、出遊、散步、玩耍。這些高品質的陪伴,才會留下愛的記憶與心靈的連結。 其次是「善用教養的十大助力」。從陪伴、盟友、手足、界限、困惑、空間、動察、提問、習慣到閱讀,都是滋養親子關係的力量。 比如,父母要避免在手足間比較,因為比較會帶來傷害;要懂得建立界限,和長輩溝通清楚教養的立場,避免價值觀衝突;要創造共同空間,讓家人有機會「在一起」;要用提問取代命令,啟發孩子思考;要以身作則養成好習慣;要讓閱讀成為一種生活方式,因為閱讀帶來視野,也開啟更多選擇。 第三點是「不要被外界的標準綁住」。父母常常不自覺把同儕或社會期待加諸在孩子身上,但其實孩子應該走自己的路。無論是窮養還是富養,都不如培養孩子具備「自處」的能力重要。 第四點是「幸福才是教養的最終目標」。並不是學歷、成績或收入才代表成功,而是能過上自己選擇的人生、擁有幸福感。父母要學會課題分離,尊重孩子的幸福選擇。 最後是「用栽培孩子的熱情,來栽培自己」。當孩子長大離巢,父母不該空心或失落,而是要重新經營人生下半場。把自己照顧好,不只是為了自己,也是讓孩子更安心,讓整個家庭形成正向循環。 唯有先把自己過好,才有能力去善待他人,才可能讓整個家庭和諧而美好。 Powered by Firstory Hosting

這一集《天下文化Podcast 書房憲場》的節目,主持人謝文憲(憲哥)帶來一本與溝通和認知有關的日本書籍,藉由一個近期在日本羽田機場發生的飛航意外事件作為引子,深入探討人與人之間溝通時的誤解與迷思。這場事件的背景是海上保安廳的飛機與航管之間的溝通出現了關鍵詞的誤解,導致悲劇的發生,也成為這本書討論「語言理解與認知落差」的重要案例。 本集的來賓是護理長吳淋禎,她以豐富的臨床經驗補充許多醫療現場的實例,說明即使每天在醫療場域中進行大量的溝通,誤會仍然層出不窮。 在醫院裡,專業人員之間雖然有高度的學識與訓練,但專家往往也可能陷入“專業偏悟”的陷阱。她以膽囊發炎為例,內科與外科醫師會根據各自專業提供完全不同的建議,內科主張保守觀察,外科則傾向直接切除,兩者皆無對錯,卻可能讓病人無所適從。 這也反映出書中提到的另一項迷思:「越是專業的人,越可能忽略全局」。 討論中,憲哥與吳淋禎也談到記憶與理解之間的關聯。書中指出,人類的記憶力極其有限,我們往往高估了自己的記憶力與理解能力,導致錯誤發生。即使是資深醫療人員,若過度依賴經驗或語言習慣,也容易在緊要關頭出錯。 因此吳淋禎分享醫院會導入各種「防呆機制」,像是三讀五對、雙人核對(Double check)以及條碼掃描,以減少用藥錯誤和溝通失誤。 這一集Podcast,透過一樁樁真實的臨床故事,讓書中理論變得生動,也提醒我們:溝通的失敗,往往並非惡意,而是每個人認知不同的必然結果。 唯有謙虛地理解彼此的差異、重視流程與確認機制,才能在生活與職場中,降低錯誤與衝突的發生。 Powered by Firstory Hosting

Thanks to Podmatch AGAIN for connnecting me with an amazing guest, Devon Wieters, on One Leg Up With Alex Garrettt! Devon is a college graduate, writer, and podcaster who just happens to have cerebral palsy. She is passionate about creating a better world for all! She is also fiercely advocating for the passage of the SSI Restoration Act, which would eliminate the Social Security/Medicaid “marriage penalty” and the SSI Savings Penalty Elimination Act, which would raise the salary and asset limits for Social Security and Medicaid. These changes would allow people with disabilities to work and marry without losing vital disability benefits. Devon can bring awareness to the myriad of issues people with disabilities still face and what changes need to be made at both federal and state levels to help people with disabilities and their families and caregivers thrive! She is also advocating for a man named Crosley Green to be released from prison, who she believes was wrongfully convicted of murder in Florida in 1990. Devon is also a super fan of the TV show Survivor and loves analyzing the strategy of the game with the fan community. In fact. she learned her interview techniques from watching host Jeff Probst!Pls. visit https://wheelwithit.com/! My Podmatch affiliate link is here: https://www.joinpodmatch.com/onelegupalex
