Cost of Glory Greece Retreat: https://costofglory.com/retreatPart 3 of 3 of Caesar's Civil War series. From triumph to near-disaster. Caesar's Egyptian entanglement transforms him from a glorious victor to a desperate challenger. In this episode:Pompey's assassination in Egypt and Caesar's unexpected grief over his former ally's deathCleopatra's legendary entrance in a bed-sack and her political seduction of CaesarThe brutal urban warfare trapping Caesar in the palace quarter for six monthsThe burning of the Great Library during the harbor battles—400,000 volumes lostCaesar's desperate swim to safety while clutching precious documents above waterYoung King Ptolemy XIII's tragic fate and the consolidation of Cleopatra's powerThe lightning campaign against Pharnaces in Asia—"Veni, Vidi, Vici"The veterans' mutiny outside Rome and Caesar's masterful psychological manipulationCato's final stand in Africa and his defiant suicideThe decisive Battle of Thapsus and the strategic genius of fighting on narrow groundThe massacre of surrendering enemies as Caesar's clemency finally failsAs Caesar recounts, the Republic's future dictator came very close to destruction in the palaces and canals of Alexandria. While Rome descended into chaos under Mark Antony's drunken rule, Caesar fought for his life against war elephants and Numidian cavalry, transformed by his liaison with the living goddess Cleopatra. The man who emerged from Egypt was no longer merely a Roman general, he had consorted with divinity and fathered the son of a pharaoh. As Cicero wrote in frantic letters to Atticus: "Where am I to look for solace?" The final campaign that would cement Caesar's supremacy began with the most dangerous gamble of his career.Works Cited: (Affiliate links - support the show!)Gareth Sampson, The Battle of Pharsalus Matthias Gelzer, Caesar: Politician and Statesman James Froude, Caesar: A Sketch, Raaflaub (ed.)

Some environments are simply too harsh for traditional power sources. Solar panels fail in darkness, batteries die quickly, and diesel can't reach. That's where Zeno Power comes in. The company is pioneering nuclear batteries, compact systems that recycle radioactive waste into safe, reliable power for years at a time.On this episode of Valley of Depth, I'm joined by Tyler Bernstein, co-founder and CEO of Zeno Power. We trace the journey from a Vanderbilt classroom project to a venture-backed company with $70M in private capital, $60M+ in NASA and DoD contracts, and a working nuclear prototype. Tyler shares how Zeno is positioning itself to power critical frontier operations: autonomous systems on the seabed, satellites in orbit, and landers on the Moon.We also discuss:How a nuclear battery works and why Strontium-90 is Zeno's starting fuelWhat it takes to safely turn nuclear waste into usable powerThe use cases that only nuclear batteries can unlockThe business model: selling units vs. power-as-a-service vs. revenue sharingNavigating the unique regulatory path for radioisotope systemsThe risks of scaling a nuclear startup…and much more.This episode is brought to you by World Space Business Week, taking place September 15–19 in Paris.

What if the very reason you feel stuck, silenced, or afraid to take up space… didn't start with you? What if the resistance in your body, the self-doubt in your voice, and the fear of being seen are actually ancient echoes of a system built to keep women small?In this first half of a powerful two-part series, I'm joined by my business coach and spiritual mentor Katy Stuart for a conversation that will live in your bones. We explore the forgotten history of the sacred divine feminine—and the systemic erasure that has shaped the way women live, lead, mother, and show up in the world today. From priestess temples and womb-shaped stone altars to the violent silencing of women through witch hunts and religious colonization, we trace the long lineage of how women's power was intentionally suppressed… and how those wounds are still alive in our nervous systems, families, and leadership.Drawing from the deep well of Katy's course HER, we illuminate the hidden narratives most of us never learned: the rise of the patriarchal church, the rewriting of spiritual history, the distortion of feminine wisdom, and the roots of the witch wound—both literal and energetic. This isn't just a historical conversation; it's an unflinching look at how centuries of systemic spiritual disempowerment still show up in modern-day business, motherhood, and personal identity.Whether you're spiritual or skeptical, religious or deconstructing, new to this conversation or knee-deep in the remembering, this episode will meet you where you are. It's for the woman who has always felt like there was more. The one who's starting to question what she was taught. The one who's waking up and realizing: I was never broken—I was just disconnected from the truth of who I am.Together, we name the invisible forces that have shaped us for generations—and we begin to unravel the lies. Because when you understand where the fear of being “too much” or “not enough” really comes from, you finally have the power to choose a different path.This episode is the remembering. Part two is the becoming.In this episode, we explore:The systemic erasure of the divine feminine and how it impacts modern women's voices, visibility, and self-worthThe spiritual lineage of the priestesses, shamans, druids, and oracles—and how their power was intentionally suppressedThe historical rise of patriarchal religion, the dismantling of goddess-centered cultures, and the suppression of feminine powerThe impact of Christian colonization, witch hunts, and the demonization of feminine spiritualityWhy women's natural connection to the earth, moon cycles, intuition, and womb wisdom was once revered—and how reclaiming it is an act of healingThe psychological and somatic effects of this erasure—including internalized shame, people-pleasing, self-silencing, and fear of spiritual explorationThe difference between matriarchal societies and modern feminism—and how ancient feminine leadership was rooted in reciprocity, reverence, and embodimentBe sure to hit subscribe so you never miss the latest episode!Connect with Katy:Instagram → @thekatystuartWebsite → katystuart.comJoin the Oracle Mastermind → katystuart.com/the-oracleStep into The Experience → katystuart.com/the-experienceConnect with Emily:Website: www.EmilyReuschel.comInstagram:

According to Hinton, the best way to do this is to imbue AI with the qualities of traditional femininity. Under his framework, just as a mother cares for her baby at all costs, AI with these maternal qualities will similarly want to protect or care for human users, not control them.ESG Data HellTrump's BLS appointee suggests suspending jobs report entirely until methods of data collection are ‘corrected'Trump Bureau of Labor Statistics nominee was a 'bystander' outside Capitol on Jan. 6, White House saysDOJ fires sandwich thrower after he's charged with assaulting officer in Washington, DCThe man facing a federal assault charge for throwing a Subway sandwich at a federal officer in Washington, D.C., was an employee at the Department of Justice, Attorney General Pam Bondi said: “This is an example of the Deep State we have been up against for seven months as we work to refocus DOJ …“You will NOT work in this administration while disrespecting our government and law enforcement.”E.J.

In this powerful conversation recorded in Miami, I sit down with manifestation coach and spiritual entrepreneur Nadia Khaled for our fourth collaboration together. As fellow Pisces with Virgo risings, we dive deep into the intersection of spirituality, authenticity, and using fame as a force for good in the world.This episode explores the often-misunderstood relationship between spiritual growth and the desire for visibility, sharing how my journey from strict religious conditioning to celebrity coaching became a path of healing and service. We break down the practical and energetic aspects of magnetism, discussing everything from nervous system regulation during content creation to the art of walking into any room like you own it.Key Topics Discussed:Why the most self-aware people are often the least likely to pursue fame—and why that needs to changeHow my Mormon upbringing and subsequent spiritual deconstruction shaped my understanding of authentic powerThe difference between using content creation as escape versus processing emotions first, then sharing wisdomMy approach to showing up during my divorce and single motherhood: boundaries, compassion, and the "character" version of myselfThe alter ego effect: how both Nadia and I use strategic versions of ourselves to build confidence and manifest our goalsWhy timing matters in sharing your struggles—the power of processing privately before teaching publiclyPractical magnetism techniques: the "four corners" room-commanding exercise and expanding your energy fieldHow to identify your natural flow states and use them as a blueprint for magnetic presenceThe relationship between following your desires and spiritual alignment—why your wants are often your dharmaThis conversation offers a refreshing perspective on building a spiritual business without compromising your authenticity, plus practical tools for anyone wanting to command more presence and magnetism in their daily life.

Welcome, gorgeous souls, to Episode 387 of Aligned Abundance! ✨This week, I'm joined by Sarah Gregg and Jill Ritchie for a deeply activating conversation on intuition, self-trust, and reclaiming personal power.In this episode, we explore why so many of us feel disconnected from our inner knowing and how to rebuild that bridge between mind and intuition.Here's what you'll discover in this week's episode:What the “intuition gap” really isHow science and spirituality together help you access your intuitive powerThe neurological + psychological shifts that happen when you start trusting yourselfHow to tell the difference between intuition, fear, and overthinking

This is going to be a foundational episode, one that I encourage you to listen to with your heart, not just your head and I'll reference often for you to come back to as I know it's going to land differently each time. “Alignment isn't control. It's co-creation.”If you've been doing all the “right things” but still not seeing the results you desire - in your business, your bank account, your body of work it's not because something's wrong with you, it's likely that you're trying to FORCE and control your alignment. In this episode, I'm breaking down what alignment really is (and what it isn't), why you might be unconsciously resisting the very thing you're trying to manifest, and how to shift from victim energy into the frequency of true co-creation.

What if the safety you once found in your faith suddenly became the very thing you questioned most?So many of us find solace in spirituality or religion—especially when life feels like it's falling apart. But what happens when that sense of safety is ripped away by trauma, abuse, and feeling completely out of control?In this raw and deeply personal episode, I'm sharing a vulnerable chapter of my story—where faith collided with fear, and the church I once loved became both my sanctuary and my silent witness. If you've ever struggled with the contradiction of holding on to hope while everything around you feels unsafe, this one's for you.BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU'LL DISCOVER:How the church and youth group provided a brief reprieve from an unsafe home environmentThe heartbreaking loss of autonomy and how it shaped my early relationship with controlThe painful development of an eating disorder as a way to reclaim some sense of powerThe pivotal moment that forced me to confront my own survival—and the choice I had to makeThis episode is tender, real, and a powerful reminder that healing begins when we start telling the truth about what we've lived through. Keep listening—your story matters too.Let's connect!Follow me on IG: @risewithrebekah⁠⁠⁠The Expansion Experience for FREE⁠⁠⁠.

In this episode, we dive into the turbulent decade of the 1970s, exploring how the oil shocks and economic crises of the era shattered the postwar order in America. Drawing from historian Gary Gerstle's influential work The Rise and Fall of the Neoliberal Era, we examine how stagflation, energy insecurity, and geopolitical tensions fueled public disillusionment with Keynesian economics and paved the way for a neoliberal revolution.In This Episode:The 1973 and 1979 oil shocks and their devastating economic ripple effectsStagflation: why rising prices and stagnant growth confounded policymakersThe decline of faith in government economic managementHow energy crises exposed vulnerabilities in American global powerThe ideological groundwork for the rise of neoliberal leaders like Ronald Reagan and Margaret ThatcherGerstle's perspective on how these transformations reshaped the political and economic landscape for decades to comeAbout the Book: Gary Gerstle's The Rise and Fall of the Neoliberal Era offers a sweeping history of how neoliberalism rose to dominance in the late 20th century and why its influence may now be waning. The book connects domestic crises like the 1970s oil shocks to larger ideological shifts in American and global politics.Further Reading:Gerstle, Gary.

What does it mean to live as a Priestess in today's world? Not in theory. Not in performance. But in breath. In choice. In the way you meet yourself.In this episode, Sascha Martineau, a Certified Tantra Practitioner of the Embodied Awakening Academy and Vocal Alchemist, joins Sydelle Boscarello for a deep and real conversation on feminine embodiment, emotional truth, and the lived path of devotion.This is not a how-to. It's an invitation. To slow down. To feel more. To remember who you are beneath the masks.In this episode they discuss:How the Priestess awakens through pain, presence, and pleasureLearning to listen to your womb, your breath, and your bodyReclaiming sensuality without making it a performanceWhat to do when people-pleasing pulls you out of your powerThe shadow side of the Priestess: superiority, avoidance, isolationHow to return to your truth when the world feels loudWhy embodiment is about feeling fully, not doing perfectlyThis episode is for the woman who knows there's something deeper calling her, even if she doesn't have the words for it yet. For the one who has been carrying the weight of other people's expectations, shrinking her truth, or performing what she thinks sacredness should look like. If you've felt numb in your body, disconnected from your sensuality, or unsure how to trust yourself again, this is your sign to pause and tune in. Let this conversation be a mirror, a remembering, a return. Press play and come home to what's already inside you.Quotes from the episode:“The Priestess is not outside of you. She lives in your breath. In how you touch the world.”“Your power isn't in how much you do. It's in how deeply you feel.”“Sensuality isn't performance. It's presence.”If you're feeling called to walk this path, here are some resources for you:Join the Waitlist to our Guided Tantra Practitioner Training: https://embodiedawakeningacademy.com/tantra-practitioner-training/Or enroll in the Self Paced Tantra Practitioner Training: https://embodiedawakeningacademy.com/self-paced-tantra-practitioner-training/-----Explore our in-person events and online courses: www.embodiedawakeningacademy.comConnect with Sascha:Instagram: @saschamartineauWebsite: https://www.saschamartineau.com

There's a hidden story in the Tarot—one we don't often speak of.It's the story of the Four Queens—Wands, Cups, Swords, and Pentacles—and what happened when they turned on each other.This message is a mythic remembrance of the fall of the ancient temples—Atlantis, Babylon, the priestesshoods—and how that collapse is mirrored in our inner lives today. When the Queens are no longer in sacred communion, the feminine grid of creation fractures, and with it, our sense of sovereignty, abundance, and trust in sisterhood.

In 1966, President Lyndon B. Johnson declared that the third Sunday in June would henceforth be celebrated as Father's Day. It was a symbolic gesture aimed at strengthening paternal bonds, as well as a tacit rejection of the policies recommended by Daniel Patrick Moynihan, who had just left Johnson's administration in disgrace after his controversial report on Black family life and poverty was leaked. “As we know it,” Scholar contributor Augustine Sedgewick writes in his new book, “Father's Day is an unintended consequence of the fractious American politics of race, gender, and class.” Sedgewick's book, Fatherhood: A History of Love and Power, is the story of how such politics ensnarled parental care, and of the men who expanded the domain of fathers across generations of crisis and change, from Aristotle and Henry VIII to Freud and Bob Dylan. Go beyond the episode:Augustine Sedgewick's Fatherhood: A History of Love and PowerThe far right's signature style is less about dad pants and more about fatherhood: read Sedgewick's essay “Ku Klux Khaki”“Thoreau's Pencils,” Sedgwick explores the abolitionist's relationship with his family—and his family business's ties to slaveryFor more on the Moynihan Report and political interventions on parenting, read Melinda Cooper's Family ValuesTune in every (other) week to catch interviews with the liveliest voices from literature, the arts, sciences, history, and public affairs; reports on cutting-edge works in progress; long-form narratives; and compelling excerpts from new books.

What does it really mean to build a world where everyone belongs — not just in policy or design, but in spirit? In this powerful and poetic conversation, I sit down with Qudsiya Naqui, civil rights attorney and host of Down to the Struts, to explore the deep intersections of disability, justice, identity, and radical access.We talk candidly about the shame Qudsiya once carried, what losing her vision taught her about intuition, and how love, advocacy, and design can become tools of liberation.

Whether you're disabled, an ally, or just waking up to these questions, this conversation offers insight, warmth, and clarity you won't want to miss.

Podcast Summary: Cultural Branding, DEI, and Creative Authenticity with Bre FernandezIn this episode, Sacha Awwa sits down with Bre Fernandez—an award-winning Associate Creative Director, professor of advertising at the University of Miami and Miami Ad School, and rising local comedian. Known for her bold creative voice and deep cultural fluency, Bre unpacks her unconventional journey from law school dropout to creative leader, touching on everything from the importance of representation in branding to how comedy fuels her storytelling.With firsthand experience in both multicultural and general market advertising, Bre offers a refreshing and unfiltered perspective on navigating the “brovertising” world, the evolution of DEI, and why authenticity, nuance, and research are non-negotiable in successful campaigns today.Whether you're a small business owner, marketer, or creative looking to make work that actually resonates, this conversation is packed with insight—and laughs.Key Topics Discussed:1. From Law School to Ad WorldBre's Cuban upbringing and traditional career expectationsDiscovering creative advertising through Miami Ad SchoolCracking into a legacy-driven, network-dependent industry2. The Cultural Layer of BrandingWhy DEI and multicultural advertising are not interchangeableHow diverse internal teams lead to stronger external messagingDissecting tone-deaf campaigns (hello, Kendall Jenner/Pepsi)3. DEI in Advertising: Beyond BuzzwordsWhy diversity must go beyond optics to real decision-making powerThe role of DEI post-2020 and how it's being politicized todayRepresentation vs. inclusion: who's in the room vs. who's heard4. Human-Centered Creativity in an AI WorldWhy AI is a tool, not a replacement for nuanced storytellingThe risk of creative atrophy when we rely too heavily on techTeaching students to balance innovation with critical thinking5. Brand Authenticity & Speaking to Real AudiencesWhy research matters more than assumptionsWhy brands need to know their primary, secondary, and tertiary audiencesCase studies of brands that got it right (Dove, Nike) and wrong (Bud Light, Heineken)6. Entrepreneurship, Comedy, and the Creative OutletWhy having a creative outlet is crucial to avoid burnoutBre's emerging comedy career and using humor as a form of cultural commentaryJuggling multiple identities and finding alignment between personal voice and professional workKey Takeaways for Creatives & Entrepreneurs:Research is not optional. You can't speak to a culture you haven't studied or experienced.AI can help, but creativity needs a human pulse. Don't let technology dilute your voice.Authenticity is currency. Consumers see through performative branding—real wins every time.Diverse voices build better campaigns. It's not just good ethics—it's good business.Start where your audience lives. Whether that's Facebook Marketplace or stand-up mics, your people are somewhere—go meet them there.

At the peak of success, when everything looked perfect from the outside - seven-figure launches, celebrity clients, media features - I felt the deepest misalignment I'd ever known. This isn't a story about burnout. It's about an identity death. A frequency realignment. And the power of surrendering what's no longer true, even when it's wildly successful.In this episode, I share the intimate behind-the-scenes of torching my own empire - not because it failed, but because my soul evolved beyond it.We'll explore:The unseen unraveling behind “success”How identity misalignment silently erodes powerThe trap of overgiving and people-pleasing in businessWhy scaling a misaligned brand only magnifies the weightWhat Sovereignty in leadership actually requiresIf you've built the empire... and still feel the quiet ache of disconnection - you are not broken. You are becoming.Ready to go deeper?

Dr. Joey Dodson unpacks the commonly misunderstood passage of Romans 7, revealing how the dominant interpretation has mistakenly led Christians to identify with defeat rather than victory in Christ.• Historical interpretation shows earliest Greek readers understood Paul was impersonating someone else, not describing his own post-conversion experience• Augustine shifted the interpretation during disputes with Pelagius, influencing Luther and Calvin• The "I" in Romans 7 is completely dominated by sin, with no mention of the Holy Spirit• Romans 7 likely portrays Adam/Israel under law's condemnation, not the normal Christian life• Paul presents sin as a cosmic tyrant, not just individual actions• Christians are already sanctified but not fully expressing that reality• Our identity is primarily as sons and daughters, not sinners• Community and the Holy Spirit are essential for freedom – isolation keeps us in darkness• Grace doesn't just forgive sin – it frees us from sin's powerThe gospel brings liberation from sin's dominion, not just forgiveness. Our struggle isn't because we must sin, but because we choose to. We've been delivered from the domain of darkness into his marvelous light.

If the thought of speaking on stage, going live on Instagram, or even hitting “record” on a reel makes your palms sweat—you're not alone. In this episode, we're breaking down how to overcome the fear of public speaking so you can show up with confidence, clarity, and presence in your business and brand.You'll learn:Why public speaking fear isn't just about the words—it's about visibility, perfectionism, and past woundsHow to stop overthinking and start speaking with powerThe mindset shifts I used to go from avoidant and anxious… to speaking on global stages and hosting a top podcastWhat's really stopping you from being seen—and how to take back your voiceWhether you're an entrepreneur, content creator, coach, or aspiring speaker, this episode will help you silence self-doubt and finally step into your message with courage.

Episode SummaryIn this opening episode of The Believer's Authority series, Dr. Jim Van Gelderen lays the biblical foundation for victorious Christian living. Drawing from Ephesians and Colossians, he explains how every believer is spiritually seated with Christ in heavenly places, far above all demonic powers. This critical truth shifts the battlefield and shows young people that victory over the enemy is not only possible—it's already been won.Topics DiscussedTestimony of Pastor Marty Moon's salvation and call to preachThe believer's identification with Christ's death, resurrection, and ascensionWhat it means to be “seated in heavenly places” (Ephesians 2:6)The biblical reality that Satan is already defeated (Colossians 2:14-15)Understanding spiritual authority vs. spiritual powerThe necessity of submission to Christ in exercising His authority (James 4:7)A preview of the next steps: appropriation and actionKey TakeawaysYour spiritual position matters—you are in Christ, seated far above the enemy.You're not fighting for victory; you're fighting from victory.Satan is already defeated at the cross—you don't ask for victory; you claim it.Submission is the gateway to authority—you can only exercise Christ's authority when you're under it.Knowing truth is step one—appropriating and acting on it comes next.
