Real Life Runners I Tying Running and Health into a Family-Centered Life
When most runners think about strength training, they immediately picture squats, lunges, and deadlifts. After all, running is a leg sport... right?Not exactly.In this episode, Kevin and I are breaking down one of the biggest misconceptions in running: that your upper body doesn't matter. I'm sharing why building strength in your shoulders, back, chest, and core can actually help you run more efficiently, maintain better posture, breathe easier, and reduce unnecessary stress on your lower back. If you've skipped upper body training because you thought it wasn't important or worried it would make you bulky, I think this conversation might change your mind.We also talk about how often runners should train their upper body, how much weight you actually need to use, and why chasing endless high-rep workouts isn't the answer. I'll finish by walking you through my favorite upper body exercises for runners and explain exactly why each one deserves a place in your training. My goal isn't to help you become a bodybuilder. It's to help you become a stronger, healthier, more resilient runner.00:48 Pushup Myth Busted02:10 Strength vs Mass Debate04:57 Running Economy Basics07:17 Arm Swing Mechanics13:02 Posture and Breathing18:06 Spine Rotation Stress24:11 Breathing Mobility Fixes28:11 How Often to Lift29:47 Sets Reps and Load36:20 Bone Density Benefits39:47 Push Pull Framework40:59 Exercise 1 Dumbbell Row42:38 Row Form Cues43:27 Pushup Alternatives47:01 Face Pull Posture Fix49:34 Pulldown vs Pullup52:14 Overhead Press Setup56:18 Triceps Work Options01:00:32 Pallof Press Anti Twist01:03:16 Band Pull Aparts01:04:39 Dead Bug Coordination01:07:20 Farmers Carry Posture01:09:17 Build Your Routine01:11:16 Rotator Cuff BonusGain access to my new secret podcast, Unbreakable: The Runner's Guide To Injury-Proofing Your Body After 40.

The attack window from the discovery of a vulnerability to its exploitation has shrunk to less than 24 hours and sometimes down to just 25 minutes. Is your security team prepared for the speed of AI-driven attacks?In this episode, Ashish sits down with Sarit Tager, who leads Cortex Cloud product management at Palo Alto Networks, to discuss why the post-Mythos era is forcing Cloud Security and AppSec out of their traditional silos. Sarit explains how AI coding agents prioritize generating code over securing it, which can sometimes result in flaws like accidentally deleting production databases within two weeks.We also explore how English has become the new primary programming language, effectively making everyone a potential developer. Sarit breaks down why relying solely on cloud posture management is no longer enough and why deploying active runtime agents is now mandatory to block real-time exploits.Guest Socials - Sarit's Linkedin Podcast Twitter - @CloudSecPod If you want to watch videos of this LIVE STREAMED episode and past episodes - Check out our other Cloud Security Social Channels:-Cloud Security Podcast- Youtube- Cloud Security Newsletter If you are interested in AI Security, you can check out our sister podcast - AI Security Podcast(00:00) Introduction: The Convergence of Cloud and AppSec(01:50) Sarit Tager's Background: From VP of Engineering to Palo Alto Networks(03:00) Why English is the New Programming Language(06:00) The Problem with LLMs Suggesting AppSec Fixes That Break Functionality(09:30) How AI Agents Can Accidentally Delete Production Databases(11:40) The Attack Window Shrinking to 25-30 Minutes(14:00) The Post-Mythos Fear and the Token Cost Challenge(16:30) Why You Must Deploy a Runtime Agent (Posture is Not Enough)(18:30) Why AI Coding Agents Put Security Second(24:00) Breaking the Silos: The Rise of Holistic Product Security(36:00) How AI Empowers Non-Experts to Investigate Across Security Domains(40:30) Fun Questions: 50 Countries, No Social Media, and Japanese FoodThank you to Palo Alto Networks for sponsoring this episode:Learn more about Palo Alto Networks Cortex Cloud.

Did you know that there are simple habits, posture strategies, and exercises that can protect your bones for life? In this episode, I'm joined by Penny Shure, an osteoporosis exercise specialist and creator of the Million Dollar Bones program and book, to share practical habits for stronger bones at any age.

Randy Newberg sits down with MTNTOUGH coaches Sarah Maschino and Nick Bechtold to break down the brand-new Always Ready 50+ program. Designed for hunters and active adults over 50 (but perfect for anyone rebuilding after injury, desk life, or time off), this 12-week, 3-day-per-week plan focuses on strength, balance, mobility, and progressive conditioning without the beat-down. They discuss building a “fitness buffer” for longevity, training around common aches and injuries, the difference between motivation and discipline, and real stories of older hunters reclaiming bucket-list adventures. Practical, honest, and life-changing — this is how you stay dangerous for decades.V I D E O S TO W A T C H N E X T
Take a look at your speedometer the next time you're driving. Chances are, it's lying to you. The speed you're actually traveling is probably different from what the dashboard says—and that's completely intentional. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speedometer?utm From the time we're children, we're constantly reminded to "sit up straight" and "don't slouch." We've been told that good posture prevents pain, improves health, and even makes us more confident. But how much of that is actually supported by science? According to Beth Linker, surprisingly little. In this conversation, she explores where our ideas about posture came from, why so many assumptions have gone unchallenged, and what the evidence really says about the way we sit, stand, and move. Beth is a former physical therapist, medical historian, and author of Slouch: Posture Panic in Modern America (https://amzn.to/4480Hhk). Imagine remembering names almost instantly, recalling conversations in remarkable detail, or memorizing enormous amounts of information with ease. It may sound like a rare gift, but Nelson Dellis says it's a skill almost anyone can learn. As a six-time USA Memory Champion, a two-time Guinness World Record holder and Grandmaster of Memory. He has mastered techniques that dramatically improve recall—and they're far simpler than most people imagine. In our conversation, Nelson explains how memory really works, why we forget so much, and the practical strategies you can start using immediately to remember more of what matters. He is author of Everyday Genius: Hacks to Boost Your Memory, Focus, Problem-Solving, and Much More (https://amzn.to/3Rlxpc7). Tennis balls haven't always been bright yellow. For decades they were white, just as many people assume they always were. So why did manufacturers change one of the most recognizable pieces of sports equipment in the world? Interestingly, the answer has very little to do with tennis players—and everything to do with the people watching the match. https://www.itftennis.com/media/2280/balls-history-of-tennis-balls.pdf PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS WAYFAIR: Ready to upgrade your home for way less?

What if one small restriction under your tongue has been influencing your health your entire life? In this episode, I explore the surprising role tongue mobility plays in everything from breathing and sleep to posture, jaw pain, feeding, and even nervous system regulation. If you've ever struggled with chronic tension, mouth breathing, restless sleep, or unexplained symptoms that never seem to resolve, this conversation may help connect some important dots. I walk you through how tongue restrictions can present differently from infancy through adulthood, why so many cases are overlooked, and why evaluating tongue function—not just appearance—is essential. I also share a simple self-assessment you can do at home and discuss what to look for when seeking a qualified provider. This episode lays the foundation for next week's conversation about whether a tongue release is appropriate and why therapy before and after treatment matters just as much as the procedure itself. If this episode helped you see the connection between your mouth and the rest of your body in a new way, I'd love for you to share it with someone who could benefit from hearing it.

Vintage City Church | The Posture of a Priest • 1 Peter 2:4-10 This teaching explores the private and public postures of a royal priesthood, showing how intimacy with Jesus shapes us to faithfully represent His heart, character, and kingdom in every area of life.
Poor Posture: Are You Slipping a Disc at Your Desk? takes a close look at one of the most overlooked health problems of modern life. Millions of us spend hour after hour sitting at a desk, staring at a screen, barely moving except to reach for another cup of tea. It feels perfectly normal. The trouble is, our bodies were never designed for it.In this episode of Mark & Pete, we explore the surprising science behind posture, back pain, neck strain and the hidden health risks of prolonged sitting. We uncover why experts recommend getting up every 30 to 60 minutes, how a few simple adjustments to your desk can make a remarkable difference, and why tiny habits repeated throughout the day often matter more than expensive office gadgets.Along the way you'll hear practical tips for improving posture, reducing stiffness, protecting your spine and boosting your energy levels. We look at monitor height, chair position, standing breaks, stretching, walking, hydration and even why looking out of a window from time to time might be doing your brain a favour. It all sounds wonderfully obvious once someone points it out. Which perhaps tells us something.As always, we wander a little further than the headlines. Scripture reminds us that our bodies are gifts from God, entrusted to us rather than simply owned by us. Looking after them isn't vanity. It's good stewardship. There is something quietly spiritual about caring for the body that carries you through your calling each day, whether that's behind a desk, on your feet or somewhere in between.Expect plenty of fascinating facts, surprising statistics, gentle humour and practical advice you can put into practice before the episode has even finished. If you work from home, commute to an office or simply spend too much time glued to a screen, this conversation is for you.Your inbox can wait another two minutes. Your spine, rather inconveniently, has been waiting rather longer.
L'actuel chef de l'État sénégalais Bassirou Diomaye Faye reçoit vendredi 17 juillet son prédécesseur Macky Sall, candidat déclaré au poste de secrétaire général des Nations unies. En quête de parrainages, Macky Sall cherche des soutiens, dans un contexte politique marqué par l'accentuation de la rivalité entre Bassirou Diomaye Faye et le président de l'Assemblée nationale Ousmane Sonko. La rencontre pourrait aussi masquer des enjeux de politique interne à Dakar. Moussa Diaw, professeur émérite de sciences politiques à l'université Gaston-Berger de Saint-Louis, analyse les enjeux de cette visite. Il est l'invité de Polycarpe Essomba. RFI : Est-ce que l'annonce de cette rencontre entre Bassirou Diomaye Faye, l'actuel président sénégalais, et son prédécesseur, Macky Sall, vous a surpris ? Moussa Diaw : Oui, cela m'a surpris. Comme cela a surpris aussi beaucoup de Sénégalais. Le président Diomaye Faye avait exprimé son avis sur la candidature de l'ex-président Macky Sall, sur le fait qu'il n'avait pas été informé, qu'il n'a pas été sollicité pour un éventuel soutien. Donc, il avait une position sur cette candidature qu'il considérait comme ne le concernant pas. Quels bénéfices politiques le président Diomaye Faye peut-il tirer du fait de recevoir Macky Sall ? Le bénéfice politique, il est dans le fait que le président Diomaye cherche à créer un parti, un appareil politique. Et d'ailleurs, la date est annoncée : le 8 août, pour la campagne de lancement de ce parti. Il est donc dans une posture politique où il cherche des alliés, où il cherche à associer un certain nombre de leaders politiques qui pourraient lui permettre de renouveler son mandat, parce qu'il y pense et c'est ça, justement, l'objectif de ce point de vue-là. L'audience avec le président Macky Sall serait une occasion d'aborder cette question d'alliance entre le président Diomaye et le parti APR que dirige Macky Sall pour pouvoir mener une campagne électorale pour les élections locales, législatives, présidentielles en 2029. Dans l'autre sens, quelle peut être la motivation de Macky Sall, au-delà de la question d'un possible soutien à sa candidature à l'ONU ? Macky Sall a quitté le pouvoir. Il avait soutenu Amadou Ba [ex-Premier ministre du Sénégal, NDLR] pendant la campagne présidentielle de 2024. Ce dernier n'a pas réussi. Son parti était devenu pratiquement orphelin parce qu'il n'y avait pas de numéro deux. L'APR souffre de l'absence de son chef qui est à l'extérieur, qui vit au Maroc. Ce qui fait que le parti était livré à lui-même. Et maintenant, ce retour pourrait permettre à ce parti-là de nouer des relations de coalition avec Diomaye qui va fonder sa formation. Cela lui permettrait d'abord d'accéder à des ressources. Vous savez, un parti qui perd le pouvoir, c'est aussi une perte de ressources, parce que la politique ici fonctionne par le clientélisme. Il faut avoir suffisamment de ressources pour pouvoir entretenir une clientèle politique. Cette rencontre se tient dans un moment où le bras-de-fer entre Bassirou Diomaye Faye et l'ex-Premier ministre Ousmane Sonko, actuel président de l'Assemblée nationale et président du parti Pastef, bat son plein à Dakar. Est-ce que, du coup, Ousmane Sonko fait les frais de toutes ces manœuvres dont vous parlez, du rapprochement entre Diomaye Faye et Macky Sall ? Ousmane Sonko est dans sa logique. Il a réussi à organiser son congrès et il est en train de mener un combat sur le terrain, dans la vente des cartes à ses militants, et il les exhorte à une remobilisation des forces pour pouvoir tenir les engagements qu'il avait pris devant les Sénégalais. Donc, oui, il y a cette rivalité de pouvoir, cette concurrence entre les deux leaders. Chacun cherche à se consolider dans l'espace politique sénégalais. Au niveau de l'opposition, elle s'est fragmentée... C'est pour cela que chacun d'eux se bat, c'est la raison pour laquelle ils cherchent à les rassembler, à créer une dynamique politique pour pouvoir constituer une sorte de rampe de lancement politique. Pour vous, Ousmane Sonko n'a pas à s'inquiéter outre mesure de manœuvres qui sont orchestrées en ce moment autour du président Diomaye Faye ? Je ne crois pas, pour la simple raison que sa popularité n'est pas affectée. Son dernier voyage, pour inaugurer la permanence de son parti à Touba, montre bien cette capacité de mobilisation, l'adhésion massive des jeunes à son parti, à sa personne. Tout cela montre qu'il a encore une popularité auprès des jeunes et des militants, et qu'ils sont attachés à sa personne. Le venue de Macky Sall à Dakar fait aussi son lot de mécontents, notamment auprès des familles des victimes de la répression de l'ancien régime. Elles appellent à ne pas sacrifier « la mémoire à l'autel de la diplomatie ». Comment entendez-vous ces cris ? C'est un cri de tristesse, un cri de désarroi. Ces familles ont perdu leurs enfants. D'autres ont eu des effets collatéraux sur leurs propres personnes, handicapées à vie. D'autres ont perdu leur emploi. Donc il y a eu beaucoup de victimes. Or, jusqu'à présent, la justice ne s'est pas prononcée sur ce dossier-là. Et Macky Sall, est considéré comme un responsable : c'était lui le président de la République. Ces citoyens-là ne souhaitent pas la venue de Macky Sall. C'est ce qui fait que ce climat est lourd. Cette visite est contestée par ces organisations-là et par ces personnes qui sont des victimes des répressions qui ont eu lieu entre 2021 et 2024.
Have you ever felt like you're doing everything right, stayed faithful, done the work, surrendered it to God, and still felt like it isn't working? Maybe it's your health, your marriage, a dream, or a body that won't cooperate. You've sown plenty and harvested little, and you're starting to wonder: is this even worth it? In this episode, Alisa gets honest about a season she's just walked through herself and unpacks why our instinct in that place is almost always the same: to grip tighter. She talks about the "palmer grasp reflex." The primitive, clenching survival instinct we're literally born with explains why we try to control our weight, our health, and our circumstances when life feels uncertain. Walking through the story of Abraham and Sarah in Genesis 12, Alisa unpacks what she calls the posture of wellness, a way of holding both pain and trust, sorrow and celebration, certainty and mystery, at the same time, instead of swinging between control and collapse. You're invited to picture and practice what it looks like to open your hands and receive rather than grasp and control. Bringing both our pain and our praise to God at the same time. Embodied Practices to Participate in Surrender Notice the clench: Pay attention to the moments you start gripping, controlling, or trying to force an outcome. That's your cue to pause. Get curious instead of certain: When you feel the urge to white-knuckle a decision or a habit, ask a question instead of making a final judgment. Open your hands: Practice naming what's hard in one hand and what you know is true about God in the other and bring both to Him. These aren't just spiritual practices; they're ways of working with how God designed our nervous systems so that our minds, bodies, and spirits can come into alignment with Him.

What if obedience isn't about giving something up, but stepping into everything God has prepared for you? Pastor Lori Cummins shares how true obedience is not about restriction, but about walking in God's love, protection, and blessing. Through the story of Jonah, we learn that obedience requires more than actions—it requires a surrendered heart. This message challenges us to examine our heart posture and follow God with willing obedience.

At first glance, Ashtanga Yoga may look like a simple sequence of postures. But beneath the surface lies a subtle framework that carries the entire method: Tristhāna, the threefold support of breath, posture, and gaze. In this episode, Kino and Tim explore the deeper meaning of Tristhāna. The word comes from Sanskrit, with tri meaning "three" and sthāna meaning "place" or "support." These three abodes are not just techniques. They are thresholds that guide the practitioner from gross sensation into subtle awareness. Breath is the golden thread linking body and mind. Posture is the seat that establishes presence. Gaze is the discipline that steadies perception. Together, they guide us inward, moving us from the visible body into the subtle body, from surface sensation into deeper stillness. Kino and Tim also reflect on how these pillars extend beyond the mat. Breath becomes a refuge, posture teaches resilience, and gaze becomes discernment. To practice Ashtanga is to realize that we are never not practicing. Yoga becomes alive in every moment of our lives. Listen in to explore how the three pillars of Tristhāna support the movement from external to internal, from gross to subtle, and discover how yoga is not just something you do, but something you live. Practice with Kino, Tim, and the Omstars community at Omstars.com, where you'll find guided Ashtanga Yoga classes, philosophy, meditation, and practice support for every stage of your path.

Chapter 19 of Exodus records one of the greatest worship scenes to ever take place. We learn from this passage that worship is not something we go blundering into. The practice of worship isn't haphazard or without discipline. In this passage we learn how to successfully go about the practice of worship.
Pastor Joshua Yasuda teaches from Matthew 6:11, “Give us this day our daily bread,” as part of our series, **How to Pray**.In this message, he unpacks what it means to bring our everyday needs to God, to practice daily dependence on Him, and to trust His generous posture as our Father. Using the image of simple bread and the story of manna in the wilderness, Pastor Joshua helps us see how God is glorified when we depend on Him for both physical and spiritual provision.

Going Pro Yoga (Formerly the Yoga Teacher Evolution Podcast)
The Yoga Sutras name 5 hidden blocks to your inner peace — and 3 kriya practices to dissolve them. Akshay Bhat makes Patanjali simple.What if the joy you keep chasing is already inside you, and only five hidden blocks stand in the way?This conversation goes deep into the second chapter of the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali. The guest, who started studying the Yoga Sutras at just 11 years old, makes this ancient text simple and easy to follow.He begins with the three habits Patanjali names before any real practice: discipline (tapas), self-study (svadhyaya), and surrender (ishvara pranidhana). Together these form kriya yoga, the inner preparation. Without them, even strong practices can push your energy the wrong way.From there he opens the five kleshas, the inner blocks that hide our natural joy: forgetting who we really are, getting stuck in the ego, chasing pleasure, pushing away what we dislike, and the fear of death. Using everyday examples — a morning coffee habit, a stuck elevator, a frightening mountain drive in Nepal — he shows how the kleshas shape daily life, and how to loosen their grip.Still inside the Yoga Sutras, he explains the difference between Hatha Yoga and Raja Yoga (the king of yogic practice), how to clear the energy channels (nadis), and shares the Mahamrityunjaya Mantra for meeting the fear of death.If your life looks fine on paper but you still feel lost, the Yoga Sutras offer a clear map. This episode is your starting point, and the doorway to the kriyas themselves.Episode Chapters:00:00:00 Introduction00:01:01 What Are the Yoga Sutras?00:02:11 The Four Chapters of Patanjali00:03:48 The Second Chapter & Kriya Yoga00:04:18 Tapas, Svadhyaya & Ishvara Pranidhana00:09:49 What Are Kriyas?00:11:59 Cleansing the Nadis: Ida, Pingala, Sushumna00:14:55 Hatha Yoga vs Raja Yoga00:16:27 Building a Daily Practice00:21:01 The Five Kleshas, Introduced00:23:13 Avidya: Forgetting Your True Self00:26:30 Impermanence & Growth00:35:03 Asmita: The False Ego00:41:40 Raga: Attachment & Desire00:45:21 Dvesha: Aversion & Resistance00:48:44 Abhinivesha: The Fear of Death00:54:23 The Mahamrityunjaya Mantra01:00:48 The Eight Limbs of Yoga01:03:09 Posture for Meditation01:07:02 Recap: The Five Kleshas01:09:41 Closing & What's NextResources:Michael Henri's InstagramAkshay Bhat's InstagramThe IN Movement InstagramTexts: Yoga Sutras of Patanjali (196 sutras, four chapters — Samadhi Pada, Sadhana Pada, Vibhuti Pada, Kaivalya Pada); Bhagavad Gita (Krishna on sukha and dukkha; sitting straight for meditation)Teachers / lineage: Thich Nhat Hanh (impermanence — the flower growing from the earth); the Buddha (desire as the root of suffering); Mahavatar Babaji (Kriya yoga lineage)Practices / concepts: Mahamrityunjaya Mantra; Shambhavi mudra; the three nadis (Ida, Pingala, Sushumna); the eight limbs; VipassanaPlaces: Annapurna Circuit, Nepal (the mountain-drive story); Uluwatu, BaliPrior / upcoming episodes: earlier episode with Akshay on mantras (referenced — link it for topical authority per Practice 3); next episode teased on Raja Yoga, "the king of yoga"

Have you ever looked up and realized you're miles away from where you used to be in your faith? Whether it was a slow drift caused by the busyness of life, a season of deep doubt, or specific choices that led you off the path, feeling disconnected from God is a place many of us find ourselves. But the hardest part isn't always recognizing that you've wandered—it's figuring out how to find your way home. In this message, we dive deep into the honest, sometimes messy reality of returning to God. We confront the heavy baggage of shame and guilt that often convinces us we've gone too far or stayed away too long, and we replace those lies with the truth about God's relentless grace. You'll discover that the journey back isn't about perfecting your behavior or earning your spot; it's about a simple turning of the heart. In this video, we explore: The Anatomy of the Drift: How to recognize the subtle ways we pull away from our faith in the day-to-day. Breaking the Cycle of Shame: Why hiding from God only deepens the distance, and how to boldly step back into the light. The Posture of Grace: Understanding that God's arms are already open, waiting for your return, rather than crossed in disappointment. Practical Steps for Today: Real, actionable ways to begin rebuilding your relationship with Him starting right now. No matter how far you feel you've wandered, you are never out of His reach. You aren't as far away as you think.
Join our champion program: mark@themomentumcompany.comAttend a Thriving Leader event: https://thriving-leader-2026.lovable.app/Instagram: @the.momentum.companyLinkedIn: /momentum-companyIn this episode of The Intentional Agribusiness Leader, Mark welcomes back one of the podcast's earliest guests, Michael Pisciotta, founder of Poma Ag Group and commercialization strategist for some of agriculture's most innovative biological and ag-tech companies.What starts as a conversation about entrepreneurship quickly becomes a deeper discussion about identity, leadership, grace, and the future of agriculture.Michael defines intentional leadership with a concept he's been thinking deeply about:Heart posture.It's not just about knowing what needs to get done.It's about the spirit, attitude, and intention you bring to the work.You can complete the task.You can check the box.But if your heart posture is rooted in resentment, frustration, or obligation, it changes how you show up—and how others experience your leadership.A major theme throughout the conversation is this:Intentionality isn't just a mindset.It's a heart-set.The discussion explores how leaders can cultivate greater awareness of their reactions, extend grace to others, and lead from a place of purpose rather than pressure.The conversation then shifts into Michael's entrepreneurial journey.After leaving the corporate world, Michael launched Poma Ag Group, helping biological manufacturers, ag-tech startups, and emerging companies navigate commercialization, strategy, and market development.One of the principles that has shaped his consulting business is simple:Never go alone.Rather than operating as a solo expert, Michael intentionally partners with specialists whose strengths complement his own.Because the best solutions rarely come from one person.They come from the right people working together.Another powerful theme throughout the episode is identity.Michael shares how years in corporate environments can cause people to attach their value to their role, title, or performance.The problem?When your identity becomes your job, your self-worth rises and falls with every success and failure.The conversation challenges leaders to separate who they are from what they do.Because leadership becomes far more effective when your confidence comes from something deeper than your position.The discussion also dives into the current realities facing agriculture:Economic pressure on farmersExtreme weather challengesThe evolution of biological products and crop protection toolsAI and technology adoptionRegulatory uncertaintyThe growing tension between innovation and public perceptionMichael believes the companies that survive and thrive in the coming years won't simply be the ones with the best products.They'll be the ones with the right intentions.The organizations focused on serving farmers, building trust, and solving real problems will ultimately create the greatest long-term impact.The episode closes with a thought-provoking discussion around agriculture's future.As AI, sustainability, food security, biological innovation, and consumer expectations continue to reshape the industry, Mark and Michael ask an important question:What is agriculture's next North Star?For decades, the answer was simple:Feed the world.But what comes next?What vision will inspire the next generation of leaders, innovators, farmers, and entrepreneurs to step forward and build the future?Because the future of agriculture won't be shaped by technology alone.It will be shaped by the people who choose to lead it.And leadership starts with heart posture.Listen if you are:Building a business or considering entrepreneurshipStruggling to separate your identity from your workLeading through uncertainty or changeInterested in biologicals, ag-tech, and innovationThinking about the future direction of agricultureLooking to become a more intentional leader

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. —

Are you struggling to submit to authority in your life? In this message, Pastor Michael Chandler unpacks what 1 Peter 2 reveals about submission, reminding us that the posture of the kingdom of God is not power or control, but humility and surrender. He challenges us to guard our words about those in authority and surround ourselves with wise people who can speak into our blind spots. If you've wrestled with authority, felt the sting of unfair leadership, or wondered why submission matters to your faith, this message will encourage you to trust that God is at work even through the most difficult circumstances.
Are you reacting to pressure or responding to God? In this Father's Day message from Acts 16, we look at the Philippian jailer, an everyday man under crushing work pressure who nearly ended his life because of one assumption. But when grace interrupted him, everything changed. His worst moment became the turning point for his entire household. This sermon explores how our real character is revealed not in our intentions but in the way we respond. Learn the difference between reacting out of panic and pausing long enough to hear God's voice. Your failure is not final, and you were never meant to carry the weight of life alone. When one person surrenders to God, it can shift the atmosphere of an entire home.0:00 Father's Day Dad Jokes2:31 What Fatherhood Teaches Us5:16 Where Pressure Shows Up in Our Lives9:39 Midnight Worship in the Prison16:52 The Posture of Surrender18:15 When Identity Crumbles Under Pressure24:49 The God-Sized Hole in Every Heart32:29 Prayer and InvitationSupport the showMade a decision to follow Jesus?

He built one of the largest men's fitness movements online. He still can't feel joy. Dean Pohlman is the founder of Man Flow Yoga — a community that has helped over 100,000 men reduce pain, build functional strength, and reclaim their bodies. He's also the host of the Better Man podcast. On paper, he's the kind of high-performing man this show is built for. In this conversation, he opens up about the cost most successful men never talk about: the gap between looking like you have it figured out and actually feeling well. We go deep on aging, mobility, the 3x/week protocol that reverses physical decline after 35, the three big misconceptions that keep strong men weak — and then deeper, into self-worth, anxiety, and what Dean calls "courageous vulnerability."

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

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.

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.

Jeff Cavaliere, MSPT, CSCS, is a physical therapist and certified strength and conditioning specialist and one of the world's leading public educators on resistance training to build muscle size and strength, avoiding and overcoming injuries, and improving your posture and movement patterns (biomechanics). We discuss often-overlooked muscles and exercises that support decades of pain-free training and long-term progress. Jeff explains the best and most efficient ways to strengthen glutes, rotator cuff, neck, and foot muscles and connective tissues, and how to resolve back, hip, and other pain. We also cover the essentials of cardio, fat loss, and nutrition and how to make excellent and ongoing progress despite real-life training constraints. This episode is crucial for men and women as young as their teens, 20s, and 30s, all the way up to their 70s, 80s (and beyond) to be strong, mobile, and pain-free.
