.Le 1er juin 2026, la France annonçait 93 milliards d'euros d'investissements étrangers. Un record. Et pourtant, aucun dirigeant de la diaspora africaine n'était dans la salle.Dans cet épisode, je ne viens pas me plaindre. Je viens expliquer. Pourquoi nos entreprises restent invisibles aux yeux des investisseurs — et surtout, les 3 fondations concrètes pour changer ça.Posture. Structure financière. Réseau stratégique. C'est tout ce qui sépare une bonne boîte d'une entreprise qui attire.L'invisibilité n'est pas une fatalité. C'est une étape.

Michael McFaul explains that China's current global posture is deeply rooted in the "century of humiliation," a period of historical weakness that Xi Jinping is determined to never repeat. Under Xi's leadership, the state has become significantly more autocratic, utilizing advanced technology for domestic monitoring and total surveillance. McFaulpoints out that Xi is moving away from the market-driven ideas that fueled China's growth, potentially leading to future economic stagnation. Despite this tightening control, internal demands for freedom remain in regions like Hong Kongand Xinjiang, where people continue to resist state-led repression. (4)11925 SHANGHAI

Send us Fan MailCan athletes get significantly faster without spending more time sprinting?In Part 1 of this conversation, Steven sits down with Michael to explore the relationship between strength development, sprint performance, and athletic coordination. Michael breaks down how exercises such as sled drags, belted marches, deep box squats, and specialty movements can improve running mechanics by developing strength where athletes need it most.The discussion dives into posture, hip position, shin splints, foot and ankle strength, and why relative strength plays a critical role in maintaining efficient movement patterns during competition. They also challenge traditional conditioning models, examining how strength-based approaches can replace excessive road work while improving performance and reducing wear and tear.Steven and Michael further explore the transfer of strength to speed, the development of acceleration, and why many successful distance runners begin as speed-based athletes. Along the way, they discuss athlete development, wrestling preparation, and how exposing athletes to challenging training environments can improve resilience and decision-making under pressure.Topics Covered:• Strength training for sprint performance• Belted marches, sled drags, and below-knee development• Posture and hip position during running• Reducing shin splints and overuse injuries• Sprint-to-distance athlete transitions• Wrestling preparation and conditioning• Fight-or-flight states in athletic performance• Building acceleration through strength development• Deep box squats and force production• Developing resilient, adaptable athletesWhether you're a sprint coach, strength coach, track athlete, or simply interested in performance development, this episode offers a fresh perspective on how strength drives speed.https://youtube.com/@platesandpancakes4593https://instagram.com/voodoo4power?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=https://voodoo4ranch.com/To possibly be a guest or support the show email Voodoo4ranch@gmail.comhttps://www.paypal.com/paypalme/voodoo4ranch

n Part 2 of our At Rest series, Angelica Barros sits down with Rebekah Barnes to explore one of the biggest barriers to true Sabbath rest: the inner critic. That harsh inner voice often uses shame, comparison, and the pressure to perform to keep us striving for approval and significance. Together, Angelica and Rebekah discuss how our culture's obsession with productivity only amplifies that voice, while the gospel offers a better way. Drawing from Scripture and practical insights, they unpack how Sabbath rest helps us silence the inner critic, embrace our identity in Christ, and live from a place of acceptance rather than performance. Plus, Rebekah shares a practical framework—Posture, Practice, and Pattern—to help you cultivate rhythms of rest that bring lasting freedom and peace.

Bonjourbienvenue pour cet épisode tentant de considérer le yoga au delà de la posture. La posture, l'asana, résume-t-elle ce qu'est le yoga ?C'est ce qui a été fait pendant presque une centaine d'année. Le yoga, surtout en Occident, n'est que la posture. Et ce mythe est resté, entretenu par tous, dont les profs de yoga, et la kama industrie, l'industrie du bien être.Le yoga a séduit et séduit maintenant de moins en moins.Peut être parce que réduit à la posture.Au delà de la posture, de la souplesse, du bien être , que pouvons nous "faire dans notre quotidien pour faire du yoga" ?Réponses au pluriel dans cet épisode.

12:47 AM   Your prospects don't hate your offer. They feel your desperation. And that's what's killing your sales. In this episode, Ray Higdon gets brutally honest about one of the most overlooked killers of conversion: the energy you bring into every sales conversation. Whether you call it eagerness, pushiness, or commission breath, prospects sense it and it sends them running, even when they actually want what you're selling. Ray breaks down three concrete steps to eliminate desperate energy from your prospecting for good. Step one: talk to more people. When you only have two prospects in your pipeline, desperation is almost unavoidable. When you're consistently reaching out to 30, 40, or 50 people a week, you stop fixating on any single outcome. Step two: stop focusing on your solution and start focusing on the problem your prospect has actually told you about. If you don't know what they're struggling with, it's likely because you've never asked. Step three: develop posture. Posture is the ability to manage the energy of a conversation without chasing, guilting, or pressuring. Ray shares the exact mindset he carried when reaching out to his warm market as he became the number one income earner in his company: "I'm going to do this with or without you." This episode is a masterclass in sales psychology for network marketers, direct sellers, and anyone who's ever felt like they were trying too hard. If you're ready to close more sales by caring less about any one outcome, this is the episode you've been waiting for. —

If only it were that easy! In Part 8 of our 12-week "Wellness Lifecycle" series, Dr. Brant Hulsebus dives into the actual physics of stress. We often think of stress as a purely emotional experience, but your body reacts to a tough day at the office exactly the same way a hunter-gatherer's body reacts to being chased by a bear. Learn how chronic emotional tension locks your autonomic nervous system into "fight or flight" mode, altering your cholesterol, shutting down your digestion, and literally forcing your spine into a defensive "fetal curve." ### In this episode, you'll learn:* **The Bear vs. Modern Life:** Why your body responds to a stressful email by spiking your cholesterol and shutting down your immune system.* **The Fetal Curve:** The biological reason emotional stress causes rounded shoulders, tight upper backs, and forward head posture. * **The Cheesecake Cycle:** Why stress biologically forces you to crave junk food for quick "survival energy"—and how that creates a vicious cycle of more stress and fatigue.* **The "Ctrl+Alt+Del" Reset:** How a specific chiropractic adjustment to the upper neck (Atlas) helps reset the vagus nerve, signaling to your body that the danger has passed so you can finally relax and heal.---### About the HostDr. Brant Hulsebus is a proud graduate of Palmer College of Chiropractic and serves as the team chiropractor for the Rockford IceHogs.

Trois auteurs, un seul sutra — et trois visions qui se complètent pour mieux comprendre ce qu'est une posture de yoga.Dans cet épisode, je plonge dans le Yoga Sutra II.46, Sthira Sukham Asanam, en comparant les traductions et commentaires de trois références incontournables. L'occasion de questionner ce que signifie vraiment pratiquer un asana : entre stabilité, douceur et joie, où se situe la frontière entre la gymnastique et le yoga ? Et surtout, comment cette définition peut nourrir concrètement ta pratique ou ton enseignement ?Je partage aussi ma propre interprétation — avoir de la marge dans la posture pour respirer, observer, ressentir — et je la confronte honnêtement aux textes.

Is forgiveness just about letting people off the hook, or is it something much deeper that restores our own humanity? Join Mike Erre and Tim Stafford as they continue their series on the Lord's Prayer, focusing on the challenging petition to forgive as we have been forgiven. From recent headlines involving the Southern Baptist Convention to the radical math of Jesus's parables, we explore what it truly means to abandon the ledger system of life.In this episode, we tackle common misconceptions about forgiveness. We discuss why it does not mean excusing abuse or ignoring the need for justice, but rather refusing to let vengeance poison our souls. Mike shares his personal practice for releasing grievances, while Tim reflects on powerful lessons learned from working with people in the prison system. Whether you are struggling with a minor slight or a deep betrayal, this conversation offers a fresh perspective on the fuel that human community needs to run on.Chapters:0:00 Intro and Summer Catch Up3:45 The SBC Amendment and Women in Ministry9:20 Institutional Control and Religious Legalism12:50 Special Guest Seth Erre Joins the Show17:40 The Lord's Prayer: Forgive Us Our Debts22:15 Why Jesus Links Our Forgiveness to Others26:30 Forgiveness vs Justice: Draining the Vengeance31:45 The Parable of the Unforgiving Servant36:10 The Math of Unrepayable Debt41:50 Choosing to Abandon the Ledger System46:30 What Forgiveness Is Not: Dispelling the Myths51:15 The Bag of Cement: Four Ways We Handle Hurt56:40 Practical Steps to Actually Forgive1:01:00 Repentance as a Posture of Restoration1:02:34 Outro and How to Support the ShowWe are so grateful for your support in making these conversations possible.

Why does Luke's Gospel include Simon carrying Jesus's cross and the criminal beside him? What do their responses reveal about the human heart? And what does this tell us about what true discipleship actually look like? In today's episode, Jensen shares how Jesus's crucifixion in Luke 23:26–43 reveals the posture of a true disciple: humble, aware of their need, and willing to take up their cross and follow the one, true King.

In this episode of our Daughters Series, we unpack the powerful story of Mary and Martha and discover why this familiar Bible story still has so much to teach us. We talk about the tension between doing things for Jesus and simply being with Him, the danger of burnout and performance-based faith, and the beautiful invitation Jesus gives every daughter to sit at His feet. We also explore one of the most moving moments in Scripture—Jesus weeping with Mary after the death of Lazarus—and what it reveals about His heart toward our pain, disappointment, and grief. Finally, we look at Mary's extravagant act of worship and uncover a powerful pattern throughout her life: every time we see Mary, she's found at the feet of Jesus. Whether you're feeling busy, burned out, heartbroken, or simply longing for more of God's presence, we hope this conversation reminds you that the posture of a daughter is always found at the feet of Jesus.

This week, Lynn Swart shares a message from Genesis 22:1–18 titled "How's Your Posture?" Drawing from the story of Abraham and Isaac on Mount Moriah, Lynn invites the congregation to examine the inward disposition of their hearts — not just what they believe, but how they are standing before God in this season.Lynn walks through the narrative of Abraham's supreme test with careful attention to its spiritual mechanics. She identifies three interlocking postures that defined Abraham's obedience: reverence for God, confidence in God's faithfulness, and wholehearted surrender — noting that Abraham's response was prompt, complete, and without hesitation. From there, Lynn unpacks the significance of the three-day journey to Moriah, the weight of leaving the servants at the base of the mountain, and Isaac's trust as his father lifted the knife. She draws a striking prophetic thread from Abraham's declaration — "God himself will provide the lamb" — straight to Calvary, and from Jehovah Jireh straight to the present: on the mountain of the Lord, it will be provided. Lynn closes the sermon by calling the church to examine where they may have settled for delayed, partial, or murmuring obedience, and to posture themselves for what God is doing next.The sermon's theological anchor is the inseparability of posture and promise. Lynn makes clear that promise is not inherited casually — it is entered intentionally, through the surrendered posture of a heart that says yes before it understands. As she puts it, every decision determines the direction we walk and the destiny we reach. Abraham descended the mountain not with less than he had carried up, but with more — revelation, provision, and a deeper knowledge of his God.Ultimately, this message is an invitation to examine the posture of your own heart before the Lord. Are you responding to what God is saying with a "Yes, Lord" — or hedging, delaying, or holding something back from the altar? Lynn calls each listener to a holy surrender: not driven by emotion, but by conviction that on the mountain of the Lord, whatever is needed will be found.

The "What's On Your Mind" crew goes completely global for a high-stakes, fast-moving Thursday edition. Host Scott Hennen is officially en route to Los Angeles to cover the star-studded Reagan National Economic Forum at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library. Holding down the home front in the studio, Kevin Flynn anchors a powerhouse broadcast featuring a rare, extended interview with the ultimate political disruptor: MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell. Broadcasters catch up with Lindell live from the Duluth Convention Center right on the eve of a chaotic Minnesota GOP endorsing convention, where he unpacks his uncompromising platform to restructure state finances, tackle regional voter issues, and completely eradicate welfare fraud. The conversation transitions from the health of the state to the structural wellness of the body as Dr. Mike Jorgensen from Red River Wellness sound a major public health alarm. Dr. Jorgensen reveals how standard screen devices are physically altering our children's spines and extends an exclusive local invitation to a revolutionary corrective seminar. Finally, the episode lands directly in the White House briefing room for a fierce showdown over the national economy. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent takes the stage to lay out the explosive rollout of the new "Trump Accounts" financial literacy app while confidently tearing into media critics. Standout Moments & Timestamps [00:01:25] The Duluth Endorsement Showdown: MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell calls in live from a bustling Duluth Convention Center ahead of the Minnesota GOP convention, making it clear he is refusing to back down from the gubernatorial race and plans to challenge political opponents early. [00:02:25] Rebuilding the State Budget: Mike Lindell breaks down his aggressive "Contract with Minnesota," detailing a systematic day-one fiscal blueprint to force total accountability across 24 state-run programs and permanently eliminate local spending fraud.

[00:04:45] The Mississippi Literacy Blueprint: Lindell explains how he intends to copy and deploy Mississippi's successful 2014 plug-and-play literacy policies to supercharge underperforming public classrooms and elevate the state's testing scores back into the national top five. [00:06:35] The Uniparty and Voting Machines: An unfiltered look at the political establishment. Lindell rails against uniparty roadblocks and calls out specific politicians who publicly campaigned to remove electronic voting machines before abruptly reversing their stances.

You hit the number you set for yourself years ago. You waited to feel different. You didn't. Most successful people read that and assume they're the exception. That they're disciplined. They're smart. They have it handled. But they have it exactly backwards, and the thing they're proudest of is the thing costing them the most. This episode is about two ways to view what you've built. One of them is the default almost everyone falls into. It looks like winning. But it produces a life nobody actually wants at sixty-five, in a large house, alone and lonely.  The other is rarer, harder, and it gives a person the life the money was supposed to bring him.

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Steven Weiniger, posture expert, author, speaker, and creator of the StrongPosture® framework, to explore the deeper science behind posture, movement, and human performance. Together, we challenge the traditional view that posture is simply about spinal alignment and instead examine how the brain, nervous system, and sensory awareness shape the way we move and function. We dive into the relationship between structure and function, the impact of technology and modern lifestyle on movement patterns, and why posture is constantly adapting based on what we repeatedly do every day. Dr. Weiniger also breaks down the concept of interoception, the body's internal awareness system, and explains how it influences posture, balance, breathing, and even longevity. From chiropractic and movement to nervous system retraining and brain-body awareness, this conversation reframes posture as far more than a cosmetic issue. It's a reflection of how the body and brain communicate. If you want to better understand movement, performance, and the future of posture health, this episode will completely change the way you think about the human body.   Key takeaways: Posture is a dynamic reflection of how the brain senses and controls the body, influenced by external and internal cues. Enhancing posture awareness and integrating strong postural movements can significantly impact longevity, resilience, and brain health. Interoception, the awareness of internal body signals, plays a crucial role in how posture is sensed and corrected. Effective posture training encompasses balance, alignment, and motion, encouraging an interconnected approach rather than isolated exercises. A simple longetivity test: Stand tall, lift one leg, and remain balanced for five slow breaths, combining breath awareness with core engagement.   More About Dr. Steven Weiniger: Dr. Steven Weiniger is an internationally recognized posture expert, chiropractor, author, and researcher whose work bridges neuroscience, movement, posture, and healthy aging.

What if the two most prescribed drug classes in America are the exact reason your body can't heal? That's not a fringe theory but an observable pattern in many people's lives. We were taught to trust the system. But when that system profits from managing your symptoms rather than addressing the cause, you have to start asking harder questions. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Kevin Reese to explore how statins and proton pump inhibitors block your body's ability to repair itself, and how the cholesterol threshold has been manipulated, presumably to sell more drugs. We also talk about why he thinks 85–90% of surgeries, tests, and treatments are simply unnecessary. Dr. Reese also shares why your pelvis is the missing link in whole-body health, and how tinnitus and vertigo are being reversed remotely through postural alignment therapy.  If you've been told to manage your condition for life or you're watching a loved one spiral deeper into the medical system, this conversation is for you.    "Statin drugs and proton pump inhibitors bring down the two things you need for healing: cholesterol and stomach acid." ~ Dr. Kevin Reese   In This Episode: - Medical monopoly, defensive medicine, and symptom management - The top two toxic drugs that inhibit healing - Cholesterol's role in brain health and longevity - White coat programming and the problem of nutrition deficiency - Four foods you should remove for wellness - Limitations of lab blood tests and imaging - Posture and musculoskeletal alignment - Symptoms are the body's warning lights - The message in the Medical Monopoly book - Head To Toe Healing membership program   Products & Resources Mentioned: Dr. Kevin Reese's Book, Medical Monopoly: The Evil Empire You've Been Tricked to Trust: https://a.co/d/0gebZ7ui   Tru Energy Skincare Bio Adaptive Hydration Oil: Try the oil and save up to $197 at http://trytruenergy.com/wendy5  Organifi Collagen: Save 20% with code MYERSDETOX at https://organifi.com/myersdetox  Organifi Happy Drops: Save 20% with code MYERSDETOX at https://organifi.com/myersdetox    Bon Charge Red Light Face Mask: Get 15% off sitewide, plus free shipping and a 12-month warranty, with code WENDY at https://boncharge.com/   Heavy Metals Quiz: Check your toxicity score and receive a free video series on how to detox your body at https://heavymetalsquiz.com    About Dr. Kevin Reese: Dr. Kevin Reese is the creator of Head-To-Toe Healing, a holistic wellness system inspiring millions to live pain- and drug-free.

Are you exercising for osteoporosis but unsure if your program is truly effective? Many people miss key components that make all the difference in preventing fractures and building strong bones. In this episode, I dive into the essentials of a complete osteoporosis exercise program. As a physical therapist with over 40 years of experience, I've seen so many women doing "good exercises" but still missing critical pieces that protect their bones and reduce fracture risk. I break down the five core components every osteoporosis program should include and share practical tips for making these exercises effective. I also talk about balance exercises and why improving balance is crucial for preventing falls, and I highlight posture techniques to protect the spine and enhance spinal stability. Finally, I share resources, handouts, and videos you can access for free, so you can implement these exercises safely at home. Whether you're walking, dancing, or doing resistance training, these tips will help you make your program complete and effective for bone strength and independence.   "Research has shown that the bones respond to the forces placed upon them. So when a muscle is contracting against resistance, it's pulling on the bone and shaking the bone as if to say, hey, we need more bone here." ~ Margie Bissinger   In this episode: - [01:19] - Five essentials for a bone-building program - [03:28] - Resistance training: proper weight, form, and frequency - [09:32] - Impact and weight-bearing exercises: why supervision helps - [11:49] - Balance training: static, dynamic, dual-tasking for fall prevention - [15:54] - Posture work: spinal alignment, seated posture, visual cues - [24:30] - Flexion vs. extension exercises - [27:10] - Movements to avoid  - [34:55] - Aerobic exercise: benefits and limits for bone density - [35:25] - Core & pelvic floor: breathing and stabilization techniques - [39:08] -  Happy Bones Club for workshops, Q&A, and more resources   Resources - Osteoporosis Exercises - https://tinyurl.com/exercisesforme - Happy Bones Club membership - https://www.happyboneshappylife.com/bones-club   More about Margie - Website - https://margiebissinger.com/  - Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/p/Margie-Bissinger-MS-PT-CHC-100063542905332/  - Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/margiebissinger/?hl=en    DISCLAIMER – The information presented on this podcast should not be construed as medical advice.

Why do some prayers seem to go unanswered while others move the hand of God? In 1 Timothy 2:8, the Apostle Paul prescribes three conditions of the heart that make prayer truly effectual: holy hands representing a life free of unconfessed sin, hands lifted without wrath reflecting reconciled relationships with others, and hands raised without doubting reflecting genuine faith in God's power and willingness to respond. Pastor Dorrell illuminates how effectual prayer is not a formula or religious ritual, but a relational posture of alignment — bringing a clean heart, a forgiving spirit, and confident expectation before the throne of grace. Examine the condition of your hands, reconcile what is broken, and pray with the persistent confidence that God is both listening and able.Eastland is a Place to BelongEastland Baptist Church is located in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

What matters more to God: outward appearance or the true condition of the heart?In this powerful episode, the conversation begins with an emotional clip involving Shia LaBeouf discussing Jesus and quickly unfolds into a deeper discussion about authenticity, worship, judgment, church culture, and what genuine faith actually looks like. The hosts challenge believers to look beyond appearances and examine whether Christianity has become more about performance than transformation.From “Sunday best” culture and youth ministry to celebrity conversions, broken people in church, and the tension between truth and love, this episode explores how Jesus consistently welcomed messy people while still calling them into transformation. The discussion also emphasizes that believers themselves are now the temple of the Holy Spirit, meaning faith should shape everyday life—not just Sunday mornings.If you've ever wrestled with church culture, hypocrisy, shame, or questions about authentic Christianity, this conversation is a heartfelt reminder that God cares deeply about heart posture, humility, and genuine surrender.Clarity in chaos.

Elbridge Colby argues that Beijing has abandoned its "hide and bide" approach for a more assertive, aggressive posture. China's most effective strategy to achieve regional dominance is a focused and sequential plan designed to undermine confidence in U.S. leadership. By targeting vulnerable but significant coalition members, China aims to demonstrate the coalition's hollowness without precipitating a costly total war. Colby argues that targeting a U.S.-linked partner like Taiwan is strategically superior for Beijing, as it serves as a "canary in the coal mine" for U.S. credibility, forcing other regional states to consider cutting deals with China.
