Why do cheaters sometimes accuse you of cheating before you ever find out what they were doing? In this episode, I'm talking about the confusing and painful dynamic where the person who betrayed you puts you on trial first. Sometimes it's projection. Sometimes it's justification. Sometimes it's manipulation. But either way, their accusation does not mean you caused the betrayal or that you deserved to be treated that way. If you're struggling with intrusive thoughts, confusion, self-doubt, or trying to make sense of what happened after betrayal, you can book a free call with me and we'll look at what's really going on underneath the symptoms.
Infinite Banking has grown fast. Really fast. And with that growth has come a flood of practitioners, coaches, agents, and advisors all claiming they can help families become their own banker. Some of them are exceptional, some are undertrained, and some are simply using the Infinite Banking label to sell products they were already selling, with a new coat of paint. From the outside, it's genuinely difficult to tell the difference. Their Marketing is polished, and their credentials sound similar. And yet the person you choose to guide you through this process will shape a financial strategy that isn't meant to last a few years. It's meant to last generations. A policy designed today may still be growing in your children's lifetime. That deserves care. https://youtu.be/0jcJDFXixhY What follows is a set of questions every Infinite Banking practitioner should be able to answer before you trust them to design your system. These aren't adversarial questions. A well-trained, experienced practitioner should answer every one of them with enthusiasm, because they demonstrate exactly the kind of long-range, client-centered thinking that separates someone guiding a philosophy from someone selling a product. Table of ContentsKey TakeawaysAre You Practicing Infinite Banking Yourself?Are You an Authorized Nelson Nash Institute Practitioner?Are They Asking the Right Questions About You?Can They Explain the Policy Design and Why?Mutual participating companyDirect vs. non-direct recognitionBase premium vs. PUA ratioThe first five years, honestlyWhich Companies Do They Work With and Why?Can They See Your Whole Financial Life?What Happens After the Policy Is Issued?The Questions to Bring to Your First ConversationThe Right Practitioner Will Welcome Every One of TheseBook a Strategy CallFrequently Asked QuestionsWhat is an authorized Infinite Banking practitioner?How do I know if an Infinite Banking advisor is qualified?What questions should I ask before buying a whole life insurance policy for IBC?Why does it matter if my advisor practices Infinite Banking themselves?What should I expect from an Infinite Banking advisor after my policy is issued?Is Infinite Banking the same regardless of which advisor I use? Key Takeaways Whether a practitioner is actively practicing Infinite Banking themselves is the single most revealing question you can ask. Authorized Nelson Nash Institute practitioners have completed formal training in the philosophy as originally taught; using the IBC label without authorization is worth questioning. Behavior matters more than policy design. A good practitioner asks as many questions about your financial life as you ask them. Policy design fluency, company selection knowledge, and honest discussion of the first five years are all marks of a practitioner who knows what they're doing. Infinite Banking is one piece of a full financial picture. A practitioner who only sees the insurance piece is missing the rest. The relationship doesn't end when the policy is issued. It's just beginning. Are You Practicing Infinite Banking Yourself? This is the most important question on the list. Not "do you have a whole life policy." Most insurance agents do. The question is whether they actively practice Infinite Banking in their own financial lives. There's a meaningful difference between the two. An agent who holds a whole life policy primarily for death benefit coverage is still thinking in product terms. A practitioner who is intentionally capitalizing policies, taking policy loans to fund investments or opportunities, repaying those loans, and systematically growing a network of policies over time is living the philosophy. You can follow what someone's life demonstrates. Believing what they say is a different thing entirely. Bruce has been capitalizing since his father opened a policy on him as an infant. That's not a credential. It's evidence of a practitioner who thinks about capital the way the Infinite Banking Concept requires. When I talk about our family banking system, I'm not speaking in theory. I'm reporting what's actually happening in our financial life. A practitioner who truly owns this will go further than confirming they have a policy. They'll be able to tell you which policy loan they most recently funded, how many policies they are running, and how they think about repayment. The follow-up question to ask: How are you using your cash value right now? What did you most recently capitalize? If those questions produce vague answers, that tells you something. Are You an Authorized Nelson Nash Institute Practitioner? Nelson Nash developed the Infinite Banking Concept and wrote Becoming Your Own Banker. The Nelson Nash Institute trains and authorizes practitioners in the philosophy as he originally taught it. Authorization means completing the Institute's training program. It's not a license in the regulatory sense, but it sets a minimum floor of both knowledge and philosophical alignment. The IBC term carries a copyright. And yet many agents use "Infinite Banking Concept" or "IBC" in their marketing without the Institute's authorization. That raises a fair question: why wouldn't they simply get authorized? Nelson said that the only limit to Infinite Banking is imagination, but he also gave guidelines. The flexibility he intended has led some practitioners to strip away those guidelines entirely and declare that any whole life policy you can borrow against constitutes IBC. Bruce calls this oversimplification. It produces policies that look like Infinite Banking on the surface but don't function like it in practice. The design is there; the philosophy isn't. Authorization is a meaningful bar. It's not the only bar, and there are levels of competency even among authorized practitioners. But a practitioner who markets themselves using intellectual property they've chosen not to be authorized in is worth questioning before you go further. Are They Asking the Right Questions About You? Nelson Nash said it himself: behavior is more important than policy design. A practitioner who truly understands this will spend as much time asking about your financial life as you spend asking about theirs. If the first question you're asked is "how much do you want to put in each year," and then they produce an illustration based on that number, that's not due diligence. That's taking an order. Think about what you'd expect from a commercial bank. If you walked in asking for a $50,000 loan and the banker just transferred the money without asking about your income, your assets, or your ability to repay, you'd be alarmed. And yet that's what some practitioners do for people who are trying to become their own banker. The institution they're helping you replace operates with far more rigor than they're applying to the process. Or consider what you'd expect from a physician. A doctor who hands you a prescription the moment you name a medication, without examining you or understanding your history, isn't practicing medicine. They're taking orders. A practitioner who quotes you an illustration before understanding your full financial picture is doing the same thing. A practitioner asking the right questions will want to understand your income and how it flows, where your money currently sits, your existing insurance and protection picture, any anticipated income changes or windfalls, your tax situation, and your estate and legacy goals. And that's not a one-time conversation. A good practitioner commits to reviewing all of it at a minimum once a year, because life changes, and the policy needs to change with it. Can They Explain the Policy Design and Why? This section covers the technical fluency a practitioner should demonstrate. You don't need to become a policy design expert. But you should know what depth of answer to expect. Mutual participating company This is the non-negotiable starting point. Universal life policies, including indexed universal life, carry no guarantees. Whole life from a mutual, participating company is the foundation. Participating means you share in the profits through a dividend. A practitioner who is unclear on why that matters, or who offers IUL as an alternative vehicle for Infinite Banking, is not operating from Nelson's philosophy. Direct vs. non-direct recognition Non-direct recognition companies credit the same dividend regardless of outstanding loans. Direct recognition companies reduce the dividend on the loaned portion. For active Infinite Banking practitioners who borrow regularly, this distinction is important, especially when a loan carries over from one year to the next and compounds against a smaller dividend. Non-direct recognition is our preference, and it's one of the clearer signs that a practitioner is thinking about how the policy will actually function in use. Base premium vs. PUA ratio Paid-up additions, or PUAs, allow you to pour additional capital into the policy and build cash value faster in the early years. A lower base with heavy PUAs can look attractive on a short illustration. But a higher base creates a larger permanent death benefit and a higher dividend over decades. You can read more about how whole life dividends work and what affects them. That dividend compounds into more cash value over a lifetime. The deeper principle: a practitioner who designs defensively, minimizing the base "in case you can't pay," is building behavioral uncertainty into the structure from day one. A practitioner who helps you think about how much you can capitalize, rather than the least you need to commit, is operating from the philosophy. Over 40 years of consistent funding, the lower base policy can outperform. But the moment funding falters, and it will because life is not a spreadsheet,...
Sometimes the pain after infidelity is something that needs to be healed. But sometimes, that pain is trying to warn you that something still isn't safe.

After infidelity, it can be hard to tell whether your pain is an old wound being triggered or your intuition warning you that something still isn't safe. In this episode, I talk about how to tell the difference between betrayal trauma, present-day red flags, and the kind of pain that may need boundaries instead of more self-soothing.

Teaching Counselling – A New Career Path? - The Reality of Self-Employment in Counselling In Episode 380 of the Counselling Tutor Podcast, your hosts Rory Lees-Oakes and Ken Kelly take us through this week's three topics: Firstly, in ‘Ethical, Sustainable Practice', they explore AI and regulation in counselling practice - looking at the current regulatory landscape, ethical responsibilities, and what practitioners need to consider when using AI tools. Then in ‘Practice Matters', Rory speaks with Sarah Henry about teaching counselling as a potential career path - exploring the transition from practitioner to educator and the skills required to support future counsellors. And finally, in ‘Student Services', Rory and Ken discuss the reality of self-employment in counselling - examining what it takes to build and sustain a private practice as a business. AI and Regulation in Counselling Practice [starts at 03:13 mins] In this section, Rory and Ken explore AI and regulation in counselling practice, examining the developing regulatory landscape surrounding AI in counselling and psychotherapy, and what ethical practitioners need to consider before integrating AI tools into their work. Key points discussed include: AI tools sit within a practitioner's professional responsibility - counsellors remain accountable for how these tools are used in practice. The UK regulatory landscape includes medical device regulation, UK GDPR, data protection legislation, professional ethics, and evidential standards. Practitioners should carefully review what data an AI tool collects, where it is stored, how it is used, and whether clients have provided informed consent. The Shared AI Charter for counselling and psychotherapy organisations emphasises client-centred ethics, transparency, human connection, equality, and ongoing evaluation. NICE is increasingly evaluating digital health technologies, encouraging practitioners to look for independent evidence supporting any AI tool they use. Key considerations include purpose, evidence, data protection, consent, bias, impact on the therapeutic relationship, and accountability if something goes wrong. Teaching Counselling – A New Career Path? [starts at 33:41 mins] In this week's ‘Practice Matters', Rory speaks with Sarah Henry about what counsellors should consider if they are thinking about moving into teaching and counselling education. Key points from this conversation include: Becoming a counselling tutor requires a shift from the role of practitioner to educator, with teaching skills being just as important as counselling knowledge. Formal teaching qualifications and experience of educational practice provide an important foundation for effective counselling education. Counselling tutors carry significant emotional labour as they support learners through personal and professional development. Maintaining appropriate boundaries is essential, balancing relational teaching with the responsibility to assess students against required standards. Tutors bring counselling theory to life by integrating real-world clinical experience and helping students connect learning with practice. Effective educators model professionalism, authenticity, and ethical practice while encouraging students to develop their own therapeutic identity. The Reality of Self-Employment in Counselling [starts at 01:01:26 mins] In this section, Rory and Ken discuss what counsellors need to understand about running a private practice and why counselling skills alone are not enough to sustain a successful business. Key points include: Private practice is fundamentally self-employment and requires business knowledge alongside counselling competence. Counselling fees must cover much more than client sessions, including supervision, CPD, insurance, administration, room hire, taxes, holidays, and other business costs. Developing business skills such as marketing, networking, budgeting, and client acquisition is crucial for long-term sustainability. Many practitioners benefit from a portfolio career, combining counselling with teaching, supervision, consultancy, or related work. Building a successful practice takes time, patience, and consistent effort, with referrals and professional networks often becoming important sources of clients. Surrounding yourself with positive, experienced practitioners rather than pessimistic voices can help build confidence and support professional growth.

Most people know that BJJ descended from Kodokan Judo which came from traditional Japanese Jiu-Jitsu systems. But the Kodokan was initially quite weak at the groundfighting aspect of grappling, and it wasn't until it brushed up against other systems specialising in ne-waza or groundwork that it became a well-rounded art. In this episode we are joined by Martial Arts historian (and BJJ practitioner) Oz Austwick who has researched this cross-pollination extensively. Oz's research focussed on Sadakazu Uyenishi who was among the first to bring jiu-jitsu to Britain, where he performed under the name "Raku". Uyenishi fought all comers, including much larger wrestlers, and toured with Mitsuyo Maeda from the Kodokan BEFORE moving to Brazil and triggering the creation of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Oz argues that Uyenishi was almost certainly a huge hidden influence in the creation of BJJ. Check out the limited edition "Raku" gi honoring this extraordinary jiu-jitsu fighter!

This episode is presented courtesy of SailPoint. Rob Sebaugh, Senior Identity Strategist at SailPoint, joins Jeff and Jim for a wide-ranging conversation on the past, present, and future of identity governance. Rob brings more than two decades of practitioner experience to the table, including 16 years running large-scale identity programs before making the move to the vendor side. The conversation covers what identity governance means today, why it must move to the forefront rather than be treated as an afterthought in an agentic world, and how organizations need to think fundamentally differently about non-human identities.

In this episode of Pagan's Witchy Corner, we sit down to work through a selection of reflection questions centered around one of the most important, and often overlooked, aspects of spiritual practice: boundaries.Together, they explore what spiritual, emotional, and ethical boundaries actually look like in everyday life, how those boundaries have evolved throughout their own practices, and why developing them is essential for maintaining healthy relationships with ourselves, our communities, and our spiritual work. Through honest conversation and personal reflection, they discuss the lessons they've learned, the mistakes they've made, and the ways strong boundaries have helped shape their paths over the years.Whether you're just beginning your practice or have been walking your path for decades, these questions invite you to examine your own beliefs, values, and experiences with curiosity and compassion.This path isn't about perfection; it's about presence. Let's begin.A NOTE ON ADVERTISEMENTS: While I can add ads for revenue, I have no control over the ads that are being run. I thank each listener for being a part of this show.

I'm just a plain-Jane kind of girl from the Southern US, raised on cornbread, front porch stories, and in the rhythm of Southern Baptist Sundays. My path to Paganism has been long, winding, often surprising, and full of unexpected turns. I didn't find it all at once. The more I leaned into my dreams, my intuition, and my experiences with spirit, the more the world began to shimmer with meaning. The gods, the dead, the land – all of it was speaking. These days, I'm a priestess of death and rebirth, of sovereignty and sacred mischief. I walk with spirits. I work with Gods who burn away illusions and shine light into shadow. My magic is devotional and practical, grounded and ecstatic. I believe in sacred rest, in the wisdom of the body, and in building spiritual homes for people like us, the seekers, the weirdos, the ones who never stopped asking questions.

https://www.jordanapodaca.com/ What do you do when your partner cheated, but now they are the one drowning in shame? In this episode, I talk about the complicated dynamic that happens when the unfaithful partner feels ashamed of what they did, but that shame starts taking over every conversation. Shame may be real, and it may even be part of what needs to be healed. But it cannot become a way to avoid accountability, collapse emotionally, or make the betrayed partner responsible for comforting the person who hurt them. I'll break down the difference between genuine shame that can lead to growth and shame that becomes another form of avoidance. I'll also explain why the betrayed partner's pain and the betrayer's shame need separate spaces if repair is going to happen. If you're trying to recover from infidelity and you feel stuck in the same painful emotional loops, you can book a free call with me. We'll look at what's actually keeping you stuck and whether working together would be the right fit.
Are your mentoring sessions actually developing your team - or are they just another meeting nobody looks forward to?In this episode of the Grow Your Clinic podcast, we break down how to transform the way you support and develop your practitioners, starting with one simple but powerful shift: ditching the word "supervision" for "mentoring." We unpack why this change in language isn't just cosmetic - it fundamentally changes the dynamic between you and your team. We dive into how to structure your mentoring sessions so they're focused, productive, and actually move the needle on practitioner performance, including the 1-3-1 problem-solving model that teaches your team to bring solutions, not just problems. You'll learn how to use simple tools like focus sheets and Slack prompts to keep practitioners accountable and prepared before every session. Plus, we explore how to measure whether your mentoring is actually working, from tracking clinician confidence and competence to gathering honest feedback from your team.If your current approach to developing your practitioners feels inconsistent or ineffective, this episode gives you a practical framework to build a mentoring culture that sticks.Need to systemise your clinic?

This is The Energy to Heal, your resource for all things Splankna, the faith-based inner healing modality that will help you achieve emotional freedom. In this episode, Laura Milliken sits down with Sarah J. Thiessen, founder of Splankna, to tackle one of the most frequently asked questions in the Christian emotional healing space: What exactly is Reiki? Many Christians have heard conflicting opinions about Reiki. Some view it as a harmless wellness practice, while others believe it has spiritual implications that deserve careful consideration. In this candid conversation, Laura and Sarah take a thoughtful look at Reiki's history, origins, core beliefs, and how it compares to Splankna. Together they discuss: What Reiki is and where it originated The foundational beliefs behind Reiki practice Whether Reiki and Splankna are the same thing Why people often confuse the two modalities The role of spiritual authority in Christian emotional healing How to evaluate healing practices through a biblical lens Common misconceptions about Splankna and energy psychology Questions Christians should ask when considering any healing modality Sarah brings decades of experience studying emotional healing, trauma, theology, and spiritual formation to this important discussion. Whether you're curious about Reiki, concerned about New Age influences, or simply trying to better understand what makes Splankna distinct, this episode offers a thoughtful framework for evaluating these topics through a Christian worldview.
This is episode two in a series on what it actually takes to build a business that scales. Last week, we tackled the most dangerous phrase in your business vocabulary - "it depends" - and why a custom-everything approach keeps you locked in as the product. This week, we take the next step: the identity shift from practitioner to architect.A practitioner delivers results. An architect designs the system that delivers results. If your calendar is maxed out and your success has started to feel like a trap, that distinction is everything.This episode walks you through what it means to build your business by design, starting with the one move that changes everything: packaging your expertise. Your methodology already exists. You're probably just not using it in a way that travels without you yet.In this episode:Why success as a practitioner eventually becomes a trapWhat it means to become the architect of your businessHow to package your expertise and make your methodology tangibleWhy leading with your IP changes the dynamic with your customersHow to deliver results without your time and attention being the bottleneckWhy this shift is an evolution, not a restartNext week: Most experts skip straight to building the solution without diagnosing the actual problem first.

Marketing can absolutely drain the life out of you, and if you have had a burst of energy followed by a big quiet patch followed by guilt, you will know exactly what I mean.In this one, I am sharing the tool that keeps getting me found online and most practitioners have no idea it is even working for them. I also get into why a rainy week and a coughing nephew in New Zealand is actually all you need to build a full content plan, what happens when your creative energy and your clinical energy hit empty at the same time, how one hook becomes five posts without you having to think that hard, and the AI mistake that could have the TGA knocking if you are not careful. If you have built a pile of content and then not posted a single bit of it, you are in the right place.

Ethical AI Practice for Counsellors and Psychotherapists in the UK - Recognising Poor Supervision in Counselling Training In Episode 379 of the Counselling Tutor Podcast, your hosts Rory Lees-Oakes and Ken Kelly take us through this week's three topics: Firstly, in ‘Ethical, Sustainable Practice', they explore professional accountability and responsibility in AI in counselling practice - including who holds responsibility if something goes wrong. Then in ‘Practice Matters', Rory speaks with Ken Kelly about his new book, Ethical AI Practice for Counsellors and Psychotherapists in the UK, and the growing role of AI in counselling and psychotherapy. And finally, in ‘Student Services', Rory and Ken discuss recognising poor supervision in counselling training - including red flags to look out for and what good supervision should provide. Accountability and Responsibility in AI Counselling Practice [starts at 03:10 mins] In this section, Rory and Ken explore accountability and responsibility in AI counselling practice, examining the ethical and legal responsibilities counsellors hold when using AI tools in their work. Key points discussed include: The responsibility for clinical decisions always remains with the practitioner, even when using AI-supported tools. Counsellors need to critically evaluate any digital tools they use, including understanding how client data is stored, protected, and accessed. It's important to consider what happens if a tool provider closes down or experiences a data breach. Practitioners should check whether their insurance covers the use of AI-supported systems in clinical work. Ethical decision-making includes documenting why a tool was accepted, rejected, or adopted with conditions. Using anonymised or non-identifiable client information can add an extra layer of protection when working digitally. Ethical AI Practice for Counsellors and Psychotherapists in the UK [starts at 26:58 mins] In this week's ‘Practice Matters', Rory speaks with Ken Kelly about his new book, Ethical AI Practice, exploring the ethical use of AI in counselling and psychotherapy. Key points from this conversation include: Ken describes the moment he realised AI would significantly impact every profession, including counselling and psychotherapy. The book was written to help practitioners navigate AI ethically while formal guidance from professional bodies continues to develop. The AI Expert Reference Group brings together representatives from counselling organisations, training providers, and ethical bodies to discuss developments in AI. The book focuses on applying existing counselling skills and ethical thinking to AI rather than teaching technical knowledge. AI is already appearing in counselling practice through tools, apps, and client use - often without practitioners realising it. Companion resources include ethical evaluation tools, AI policy templates, therapeutic contract examples, and downloadable workbooks. Recognising Poor Supervision in Counselling Training [starts at 01:07:52 mins] In this section, Rory and Ken discuss how counselling students can recognise poor supervision and what healthy supervision should look like. Key points include: Students are paying for a professional service and should expect clear contracting, appropriate support, and professional boundaries. A good supervisor should understand the needs of counselling students and ideally have experience supervising trainees. Supervision should feel supportive and safe while still offering appropriate challenge and professional development. Supervisors should understand the modality and context in which the student is working, including online or telephone practice where relevant. Warning signs may include feeling unable to bring mistakes into supervision, blurred boundaries, or supervision sessions that lack depth and challenge. Good supervision helps students grow in confidence, reflect critically on their practice, and develop professionally in service of their clients.

(Group Learning Program) - Guided Breathing Mindfulness Meditation and Student QuestionsBreathing Mindfulness Meditation was the primary form of meditation employed by The Buddha to attain Enlightenment. There are many aspects of The Path to Enlightenment that one would need to learn and practice with guidance from a Teacher, however, Breathing Mindfulness Meditation should be among the top priorities for any Practitioner aspiring to attain Enlightenment.The goal of Breathing Mindfulness Meditation is to develop “Right Mindfulness”, “Right Concentration”, and to eliminate the unwholesome root of craving/desire/attachment.All discontentedness is caused by craving/desire/attachment so it is important to train the mind to not have craving/desire/attachment as part of "Developing Your Life Practice”.In this Podcast, David will guide you in a Breathing Mindfulness Meditation session and will accept questions from Students to help you develop your meditation practice and progress forward on The Path to Enlightenment.——-Daily Wisdom - Walking The Path with The BuddhaDedicated to the education of Gotama Buddha's Teachings to attain Enlightenment.https://www.BuddhaDailyWisdom.com(See our website for online learning, courses, and retreats.)Group Learning Program - LIVE Interactive Online Classes, Book, Audiobook, Videos, Podcast and Personal Guidancehttps://mailchi.mp/f958c59262eb/buddhadailywisdomThe Words of The Buddha - Pali Canon in English Study Grouphttps://mailchi.mp/6bb4fdf2b6e0/palicanonstudyprogramFREE Book - Developing a Life Practice: The Path That Leads to Enlightenmenthttps://www.buddhadailywisdom.com/freebuddhabooksFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/DailyWisdom999YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@DailyWisdom999Podcast: https://creators.spotify.com/pod/profile/buddhadailywisdom/Support our efforts to share The Teachings of Gotama Buddha with you and worldwide for all people using this link.https://www.buddhadailywisdom.com/supportbuddha#buddhism #learnbuddhism #enlightenment #dhamma #dharma #buddha #meditation #meditationretreat #meditationcourse

A young woman was introduced to Falun Dafa by family members in her childhood, and had dreams encountering Master Li, and passed tests as a practitioner, however she did not begin to truly cultivate in Dafa until 2024. She then experienced tribulations on all fronts: losing her job, breaking up with her boyfriend, and incurred financial challenges. Through it all she has sought to improve and let go of attachments, as well as help others to understand Dafa and the truth of the persecution.

Burn Fat While You Sleep, Boost Metabolism & Fast the Smart Way with guest expert Dr. William Li #64What if everything you've been told about metabolism, fat, and weight loss is wrong? In this episode, Samantha sits down with Dr. William Li for a second conversation in season 2 (Check out Episode #62, if you missed it - and Season 1 Episode #14 as well!).Dr. Li dismantles everything you thought you knew about metabolism, visceral fat, and intermittent fasting — revealing the science-backed strategies that let your body burn dangerous fat while you sleep, eat, and live your life.Dr. Li is an internationally renowned physician-scientist, president of the Angiogenesis Foundation, and New York Times bestselling author of Eat to Beat Your Diet — to expose the myths that have kept so many women stuck in a cycle of dieting, frustration, and self-blame.Spoiler: your metabolism is not broken. It never was.From the newly discovered science proving that human metabolism stays rock-stable from age 20 to 60, to the hidden danger of "skinny fat" and its shocking link to breast cancer, to the brilliantly simple 12-hour fasting protocol Dr. Li himself follows every day — this episode is a masterclass in working with your body instead of against it. Plus, the true origin story of the famous 16:8 intermittent fasting method that no one is talking about.WHAT YOU'LL LEARN:Your metabolism is NOT slowing down: Learn the findings from a landmark study of 6,000 people that completely rewrites what we thought we knew about metabolism — and where the real culprit actually lives.Fat is a hormone-producing organ: Discover why healthy fat is essential to your metabolic function, and what happens to your hormones when it starts to grow out of control.Excess fat behaves like a tumor: Find out why Dr. Li says too much body fat follows the same dangerous playbook as cancer — and why that makes chronic inflammation so much more urgent to address.Skinny fat is a real and serious risk: Learn what a 13-year Cornell study found when it scanned nearly 3,500 normal-weight women — and why the results are a wake-up call for women who think they're in the clear.Foods that burn fat at the cellular level: Discover which everyday grocery store foods contain natural bioactives that work against fat growth — and how they do it without you changing everything on your plate.The tape measure test: Find out why your waistline tells a more accurate story about your health than your BMI, your scale, or your body size — and how to use it at home for free.Why 12 hours of fasting is enough: Learn the surprisingly achievable protocol Dr. Li follows himself every single day — and why the research says you don't need to go longer to see real results.The truth about 16:8: Discover the origin story of the most popular intermittent fasting method — and why its famous time window has almost nothing to do with human science.Insulin is the metabolic switch: Understand the simple biological reason your body burns fat while you sleep — and how the timing of your last meal determines how hard it works overnight.Ultra-lean is not ultra-safe: Find out why the medical literature puts extreme leanness in the same dangerous category as extreme obesity — and what that means for how we define a healthy goal.About Our GuestDr. William Li is an internationally renowned physician, scientist, researcher, and author whose work has impacted over 70 diseases, including cancer, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease. He is the founder and president of the Angiogenesis Foundation and is best known for his groundbreaking TED Talk, Can We Eat to Starve Cancer?, which has been viewed by millions worldwide. He is the New York Times bestselling author of Eat to Beat Disease and Eat to Beat Your Diet: Burn Fat, Heal Your Metabolism, and Live Longer.
Is the practitioner supplement market dead? Or is it just evolving into something completely unrecognizable? In this video, I break down why the traditional "insulated fortress" of practitioner dietary supplements (which accounts for around 9% of the total U.S. supplement industry) has officially been dismantled. With the death of information asymmetry, the rise of virtual dispensing systems like Fullscript, and precision AI-driven personalized manufacturing, a brand-new strategic playbook is required to win. I'll analyze the battle between legacy supplement giants (defending clinical prestige) and newcomers inverting the funnel through "Reverse-Channel Entry." Discover why the future of health optimization belongs entirely to data interoperability...bridging wearables, lab diagnostics, and virtual prescription pads. If you are a practitioner, brand owner, or health-tech founder, this is the blueprint for how supplements are being manufactured, sold, marketed, and prescribed.
What if we're not actually afraid of our power? Rather, what if we're afraid of the perception of what standing in our power might cost us?In this episode, I explore a pattern I've observed in myself,practitioners & mentors across the Spiritual & energy work space over a decade.Because perhaps the fear was never visibility.Or judgmentOr authorityOr even power itself.. as we have most often learned to relate to it. Perhaps the deeper fear is being misunderstood.Losing belonging.Outgrowing communities.Being seen without the ability to control what others can make that mean.This is a conversation about personal power, spiritualauthority, permission culture, authenticity, and the hidden stories many heart-led practitioners carry about leadership, service, humility, and influence.Not from the perspective of fixing yourself.But from the perspective of questioning whether we've beentrying to solve the wrong “problem” all along.If you've ever felt caught between staying safe and becomingmore fully yourself, this episode is for you.Because spirit-led power may have far less to do withbecoming someone new and far more to do with simply accepting who you've always been. Perspective shifts from today's conversationPower is not domination. Visibility is not the same as safety. Being misunderstood is not the same as being wrong. Humility is not self-erasure. Authority is not something granted by others.The Spirit-led Reiki Pathway: https://www.reikiredefined.com/spirit-led-reiki-pathway/Free community: https://www.reikiredefined.com/free-community/No cost weekly round up to your inbox: https://reiki-redefined.kit.com/6629991732You'll find me most @reikiredefined on Titkok.

This week on What in the Woo-Woo, Emily and KristaLyn react to two Reddit stories about Reiki, tarot, skepticism, grief, boundaries, and spiritual consent.First, a grieving teenager is taken to a Reiki session by his mom after a rough year, but he becomes convinced the whole thing is fake after finding what he believes is a hidden speaker. Was he right to refuse another session, or was his mom just scared and trying to help?Then, a man loses it after his best friend's girlfriend tries to give him a tarot reading in his own house after he already said no. Is he wrong for snapping, or was she crossing a line by pushing spiritual work onto someone who clearly didn't want it?This episode is full of gray areas: skeptical teenagers, grieving parents, pushy tarot readers, bad communication, and the big question at the center of it all — what does consent look like in spiritual spaces?Tell us in the comments: who was wrong here?Go make some magic.#WhatInTheWooWoo #TarotReading #SpiritualConsent #RedditStories #TheAlchemistsInkwell00:00 Welcome to What in the Woo-Woo00:47 A Woo-Woo of Middles00:56 Reddit Stories With Gray Areas01:11 Share Your Opinions With Us01:56 Story One: Am I the A-Hole for Saying No to Reiki?02:59 A Grieving Teen Goes to Reiki04:39 The Hidden Speaker Problem05:08 Reiki, Energy Movement & Stomach Gurgles06:06 Do We Have an Unreliable Narrator?07:15 Spiritual Work You Don't Want08:39 Reiki, Science & Skepticism09:30 Was the Practitioner the Problem?09:50 Grief, Fear & a Scared Mom10:47 Spiritual Consent Matters11:37 Verdict: No One's Really the A-Hole11:50 Story Two: Forced Tarot Reading Drama12:05 Judging the Poster Immediately12:35 Astrology, Crystals & Friend Group Tension13:30 “Stop With This Shit and Get Real”14:21 Verdict: Everyone Sucks Here15:05 Bad Astrology Takes and Breakup Advice16:25 Partners, Friend Groups & Personal Space18:31 Never Push Someone Into a Reading18:53 Insecurity and Forcing Acceptance20:15 The Poster Is Also a Problem20:46 Everyone Failed at Communication21:13 Gemini Season Communication Lesson21:23 Patreon, Submissions & ClosingJoin our new LIVE show, The Alchemist's Inkspill, every Friday at 1pm EST/10am PST here on YouTube (and Instagram Live)!Connect with us across the internet + IRL!

Summary:Dr. Stephanie Wigner sits down with her husband, Kyle, to unpack how AI is transforming the way they operate multiple clinics. They share practical examples of using AI beyond content creation, from auditing team performance and streamlining communication to building smarter systems and creating more leadership capacity. This conversation highlights why AI is not about replacing people, but elevating them into higher-value roles. The real opportunity is not learning another tool.
