“My past does not define me, but it does give purpose to the work I do today.”-JD Leach In this powerful episode of The Krista Escamilla Show, Krista sits down with JD Leach, author, actor, father, and juvenile justice reform advocate, to share his deeply personal journey through the Texas juvenile justice system and beyond. JD is the author of the memoir Behind Closed Eyes: The Echoes From Texas Juvenile Prison, where he courageously details his survival, rehabilitation, and the realities faced by young people inside the system. Having spent many years in the oilfields of Midland, JD's story is one rooted in West Texas, resilience, and redemption. Today, JD lives in Granbury, Texas, where he continues to advocate for reform, raise awareness, and share his story to help protect and empower vulnerable youth. He has also appeared in the film Lioness and recently filmed Stan the Man, using storytelling both on and off screen to spark conversation and change.
I survived the world's unhealthiest diet! Find out how I went from eating the unhealthiest foods in the world to finally getting my health on track. In this video, I'll show you which foods contribute to insulin resistance and how you can shift from an ultra-processed diet to a healthy one. Download Dr. Berg's Free Daily Health Routine: https://drbrg.co/45qtO07 0:00 Introduction: The unhealthiest diet in the world 1:30 Side effects of an unhealthy diet 2:41 Dopamine and sugar overload4:32 Environment and the processed food diet 6:28 How to quit sugar and junk food My entire childhood was filled with sugar, starch, seed oils, sweetened cereals, candy, soda, TV dinners, and more. As I got older, I'd graze after dinner until bedtime every single night. I consumed junk food and refined foods in the military while my life was high in stress and low in sleep. In college, I dealt with more stress, drank lots of coffee, and ate more junk food. Side effects of my unhealthy diet included:• Ulcers • Liver and gallbladder problems • Referred pain in the right shoulder • Restless legs syndrome• Nervousness • Insomnia • Dry eyes • Severe arthritis • Kidney stones I weighed 211 pounds, but the food I was eating was not satisfying! Refined carbs and sugar stimulate dopamine, which is not a pleasure neurotransmitter. Dopamine is an anticipatory neurotransmitter. The more you have, the more your body wants. If you eat too much junk food, you can develop dopamine resistance. This is what drives addiction, and why ultra-processed foods may satisfy you initially, but leave you feeling hungry an hour later. This is called dopamine hunger!You're not struggling with your diet because of a lack of willpower; it's your environment. The modern world is engineered with so many things to keep us hooked and addicted. Removing the triggers is the only solution!Ditch your unhealthy diet by focusing on your environment first. Try these steps:1. Get rid of ultra-processed foods: seed oils, starches, and sugar.2. No snacking, especially at night.3. No visible food.4. Find healthy substitutes for junk food.5. No blue light at night.6. Never go to the grocery store hungry or without a list. 7. Preserve your sleep.8. Be careful with social events.

Feeling overwhelmed while trying to add homesteading skills to an already full life? You're not alone. In this episode of Everyday Homesteading, I'm continuing our conversation about going from overwhelmed to peaceful and sharing what I've learned about building a homestead life that's sustainable for the long haul.This is Part 2 of our series on creating peaceful household rhythms instead of rigid schedules. If you haven't listened to Part 1 yet, I recommend starting there and then coming back to this episode so these ideas can really come together.
Of the thousands of apple varieties grown in the U.S., only a small handful are actually bought and sold on a large scale. They have familiar names, like Honeycrisp, Gala, Fuji, Granny Smith and Red Delicious. But these hugely commercially, successful apple varieties tend to overshadow older, more unique varieties known as heirloom, or heritage, apples. Some of these apples are almost literally hidden, found in small orchards and sometimes growing in backyards or on roadsides. While less commercially viable, heritage apples have unique flavors, colors and textures, and their genetic information can be studied to make apples more resistant to disease and even to breed new varieties. The Washington state legislature recently introduced a bill that would task Washington State University with establishing a heritage apple orchard program. If passed, the university would create a registry of heritage apple orchards, documenting rare or lost apples throughout the state and providing resources to orchards that grow them. We’re joined by Matthew Whiting, a tree fruit scientist at WSU, to hear more about the significance of heritage apples and what a heritage orchard program could mean for the country’s leading apple producer.

For this milestone 100th episode, we're doing something special—host Jennifer Peterkin hands over the mic to her friend, Kesh Witmer, for an intimate conversation about the journey behind The Human Experience podcast.In this raw and reflective episode, Jennifer opens up about the three-year odyssey of creating this show, from publishing her first episode at 11:50 PM on January 31st, 2023 (cutting it close to her self-imposed deadline) to interviewing guests across the world. She shares the deeply personal reasons behind her commitment to in-person interviews, how her grandfathers' stories inspired the podcast, and why she believes everyone has a story worth telling.Jennifer also reveals the evolution of her relationship with travel, from leveraging her podcast as a way to see the world to discovering that solo adventures gave her more confidence than anything else in her life. Plus, she unveils an exciting new venture: The Human Experience Legacies, a curated interview service designed to preserve family stories as heirloom keepsakes.This is a celebration of 100 episodes, countless miles traveled, and the beautiful realization that sometimes our dreams are already happening—even when they don't look exactly like we imagined.Key TakeawaysEveryone has a story worth telling: You don't need trauma or drama—being alive means you have experiences that matter and they are doors to connection.Dreams happening ≠ dreams perfected: Your dreams may already be coming true even if they don't match your original vision. Don't let perfectionism blind you to your progress.Confidence comes from doing: Solo travel, launching a podcast, or any challenge teaches you that you're capable of more than you thought—and you don't need anyone's permission.In-person connection is irreplaceable: There's something sacred about physically bearing witness to someone's story that can't be replicated virtually.Preserve stories before it's too late: Voices, laughter, emotion—these disappear when people pass. Recording stories in real-time is a gift to future generations.Compassion is about being present: You don't need to fix, advise, or relate—sometimes compassion means simply bearing witness and sitting in lament with someone.Travel expands your worldview exponentially: Leaving your bubble and experiencing how others live teaches you that "maybe my life experience isn't the only one that matters."Memorable Episodes ReferencedEpisodes 57 & 58 - Alisa's StoryEpisode 22 - Susan's StoryQuotes to Remember"Our stories are always gonna be the thing that capture our humanity, so they're always worth telling." - Jennifer Peterkin"If I want to do it, I can do it... Nothing is holding you back except yourself." - Jennifer Peterkin"You're alive, so you have a story. The problem is that we feel like things have to be so dramatic or, unfortunately, traumatic for them to be worth telling." - Jennifer Peterkin"Just because the vision you have in your head about what your dream is, just because that doesn't fully get realized, doesn't mean that your dreams aren't happening and they aren't a reality." - Jennifer Peterkin"When somebody is in need of compassion, they don't need fixing. They need a soft place to land." - Jennifer Peterkin"I think lamentation is something that we are very uncomfortable with because there is no quick fix for it... I think that it is an act of compassion itself. And I also think it's an act of worship when we can sit with somebody and just try to feel this depth of sorrow for their pain and not try to do anything else with it." - Jennifer Peterkin"Just because you're not in the exact place you thought you would be when all of these things are happening doesn't negate the fact that they are happening." - Jennifer PeterkinSTAY CONNECTEDThe Human Experience Podcast | Instagram | FacebookThe Human Experience Legacies | InstagramConnect with Jennifer on Substack | LinkedInSupport the Podcast

If you love the idea of homesteading but constantly feel behind, overwhelmed, or emotionally exhausted, I recorded this episode for you.In Part 1 of this new series, I'm sharing the household system that helped me move from constant pressure and burnout to a calmer, more sustainable rhythm of life. I talk about why overwhelm usually isn't a discipline problem and why trying to “work harder” often makes things worse, especially for busy moms caring for families while adding homesteading skills.I share why stacking homesteading on top of an already full life doesn't bring peace, how historical households managed full workloads without living by the clock, and the simple mindset shift that helped me stop feeling like I was always behind.This episode lays the foundation for creating a homestead life that fits real seasons, real energy levels, and real families, without guilt or burnout.Learn more about the Homestead Kitchen Membership and the Peaceful Homestead Rhythm Challenge here: homesteadingfamily.com/podcast-hkmThanks to American Blossom Linens for sponsoring this podcast.

In this episode, I sit down with Ruby for a deep, honest conversation about intuition - not as something mystical or abstract, but as something deeply embodied.We talk about what intuition actually feels like in the body, why so many of us were taught to numb it, and how learning to feel again can change everything. From Akashic Records and breathwork to lineage wounds, sensuality, shame, and surrender - this conversation is about coming back home to yourself.Intuition isn't loud. It's subtle. It's physical. It's a language of feeling.If you've ever felt disconnected from your body, your emotions, or your inner knowing - this episode is for you.Ruby is the Founder and Boss Witch at The Shift – a company with a mission to help close the wellness gap by joyfully reclaiming our magic. She uses the Akashic Records, tarot, and energy healing to guide people home to their truth, infinite power, and deep magic.Rather than fortune-telling your future, her approach as an Intuitive Guide is rooted in self-empowerment to remind you that you create your own.Ruby is a resident intuitive reader at Anima Mundi Apothecary and Mystic Journey Bookstore.

More isn't better. Better is better.Day 18 is about cutting back — not quitting, not losing momentum, but deliberately reducing excess so progress can continue.Most people stall not because they aren't doing enough, but because they're doing too much. Too much volume. Too many goals. Too many decisions. Eventually, something gives — usually consistency.This session teaches you how to recognise when it's time to pull back so you can move forward.You'll learn how to:Identify signs of overload before they become setbacksReduce volume without losing intentProtect energy, recovery, and focusStay consistent during busy or stressful periodsCutting back is a skill. It requires self-awareness, honesty, and confidence in the long game. This isn't about lowering standards — it's about removing unnecessary load so the important work stays sharp.This day reinforces a key performance principle: sustainability drives results. Training, habits, and routines that can't be maintained eventually collapse. Those that can adapt endure.Cutting back allows you to:Preserve movement qualityMaintain momentumAvoid the boom-and-bust cycleStrip it back. Keep the signal strong.

In this episode, I'm joined by RuthAnn Zimmerman from Homesteading With the Zimmermans for a conversation that goes straight to the heart of what this lifestyle is really about: people.We talk about balancing hospitality with busy homestead life, raising children with a strong work ethic and character, and learning to trust God's economy when it comes to time, energy, and priorities. RuthAnn shares how she keeps emotional needs first in her family and why that simple shift brings so much peace to the home.If you've been feeling stretched thin, overwhelmed by the busyness, or wondering how to keep relationships from getting lost in the work, this episode is for you.

Working with transcripts can feel overwhelming. Client calls. Workshop recordings. Interview transcripts. Pages and pages of raw material—good ideas buried under tangents, half-finished thoughts, and off-the-cuff remarks. The problem usually isn't lack of content. It's too much of it! In this episode, I walk you through a simple, repeatable workflow I use to turn messy transcripts or rough notes into a clear, usable outline—without losing the nuance that actually matters. If you've ever dropped a transcript into AI, asked it to "summarize this," and felt underwhelmed by the result… this episode will show you a much better approach. What You'll Learn Why asking AI to "summarize" is usually the wrong first move How to give AI better signal by starting with context, not content A practical, copy-and-paste prompt for structuring messy transcripts How to preserve nuance, tension, and unresolved thinking Where AI's role ends... and where your judgment matters most Key Ideas Covered in This Episode 1. The Real Risk of AI Summaries AI summaries are often: Clean Organized And emotionally flat When you ask AI to summarize too early, it tends to: Smooth over tension Resolve ambiguity prematurely Erase the very moments that make the thinking interesting But those messy moments are often the most valuable parts of a transcript! 2. Start With Context Before Content Before pasting anything into AI, clarify: What this material is (a client call, interview, workshop, etc.) What you're trying to create (article outline, memo, talk, case study) Who it's for What matters more here: clarity, persuasion, or depth This framing alone dramatically improves the output. 3. Don't Hide Your Own Thinking If you were part of the conversation—or listening closely—you already have insight. You noticed: Patterns Tensions Strong opinions What felt important (even if you're not sure why yet) Dump that thinking into the chat. You can literally say: "Here are my rough and random thoughts so far. None of this is locked in." That gives the model far better signal than a raw transcript on its own. 4. Ask for Structure—Not Writing Before asking AI to write anything, ask it to: Identify themes and recurring ideas Group related concepts into buckets Flag contradictions or unresolved thinking Preserve nuance instead of smoothing it out You're looking for a skeleton here. That's it. 5. A Simple Prompt You Can Use Here's the exact type of instruction I recommend at this stage: Take the role of a skilled research assistant helping me make sense of raw thinking without oversimplifying it. Study the transcript I've attached, along with my rough notes and early thoughts. Nothing here is finalized. I need you to: · Identify the main themes, tensions, and recurring ideas · Group them into a clear outline · Flag nuance, contradictions, or unresolved thinking · Do not write prose, conclusions, or clean summaries This keeps the AI in the right lane. 6. Where Your Role Becomes Clear Once you have structure: You decide what stays You decide what moves You decide what gets cut or combined AI gives you a map. Now it's up to you to choose the route. At this point, writing becomes easier. Not because AI wrote it for you, but because the thinking is no longer chaotic. The Big Takeaway Think in layers. So instead of asking AI to finish the job in one move, use it to: Identify patterns Clarify structure Reduce cognitive load When used this way, AI amplifies your judgement. And that's the goal: to let smart tools handle the grunt work so you can focus on framing, meaning, and persuasion. Listener Reflection Here's the question I'll leave you with: What part of your current workflow would benefit most from letting AI point out patterns while you keep the final call? If you found this episode useful, make sure you're subscribed so you don't miss future conversations on using tools thoughtfully, without giving up your edge as a creative professional.
This episode is your introduction to the world of conservative investing, so it's perfect for you if you're looking to preserve your principal and grow your money at a steady pace. I'm walking you through seven standout investment choices for 2026, ranging from high-yield online money market accounts to short-term bond funds, CDs, and Treasury bonds. We'll discuss how to shop around for the best rates, the importance of keeping up with inflation in retirement, and the benefits and limitations of each strategy. There's something here for anyone who wants their money to work a little harder without taking on unnecessary risk. You will want to hear this episode if you are interested in... 00:00 Retirement Income to beat inflation. 03:27 Using online banks and credit unions for high-yield savings. 04:53 Automatic and manual selection of money market funds. 08:23 How yield and volatility differ from money market funds with short-term bond funds. 11:24 Brokered CDs vs. traditional CDs. 13:39 U.S. Treasuries as highly secure investment using treasury bonds. 15:11 Using a fixed annuity to invest your money. 17:06 How U.S. Treasury Inflation Bonds (I Bonds) work. Seven Smart Conservative Investment Options for Growing and Preserving Your Wealth Retirement planning and conservative investing go hand in hand, particularly for those looking to preserve their hard-earned principal and ensure steady, reliable growth.. 1. High-Yield Online Money Market Accounts Keeping cash in traditional savings accounts often means missing out on higher returns so it's a great start to explore online banks that offer high-yield savings and money market accounts. Although these accounts lack physical branches and operate electronically, the tradeoff is often higher interest rates. 2. Brokerage Money Market Funds Money market funds present another secure route to saving for retirement. With Vanguard and Fidelity, your idle cash is generally swept automatically into high-yield funds, whereas Schwab offers more choices, but you may need to manually select a higher-yielding money market fund. Current yields are around 3.6% to 3.7%, but rates fluctuate weekly with market conditions. Importantly, these investments are designed to keep the value per share at $1, minimizing risk to your principal. 3. Short-Term Bond Funds If you're comfortable with a bit more fluctuation, short-term bond funds can offer higher yields than money market funds. While prices may move slightly, the key is to assess yield versus volatility and select a fund aligned with your risk tolerance. Total bond market or aggregate bond funds, such as the State Street Aggregate Bond ETF (SPAB), can yield more (sometimes above 4%), but carry higher risk and potential for loss, as evidenced by losses in years of rapidly rising interest rates. 4. Short-Term Certificates of Deposit (CDs) CDs are an old-fashioned but reliable solution. By locking in your money for a set period (often one to three years), you benefit from higher fixed rates, currently 4% for one-year CDs and slightly lower for longer terms. Watch out, though, if interest rates fall, having a longer-term CD can be advantageous, but shopping around means opening multiple accounts, which can become hard to track. 5. U.S. Treasury Bonds Tied to government backing, short-term U.S. Treasury bonds are among the safest choices. They typically yield around 3.5% to 3.6% for terms of one to three years. Besides security, their interest is exempt from state income tax, which can be a perk for residents of high-tax states. 6. Fixed Annuities For those who want higher yields and are willing to sacrifice some liquidity, fixed annuities offer insurance-backed, multi-year fixed interest rates, sometimes higher than CDs or Treasuries. Current rates above 4% for investments starting at $100,000, though smaller minimums (such as $5,000 at Fidelity) provide slightly lower yields. The main drawback is reduced access to your principal. 7. U.S. Treasury Inflation Bonds Inflation Bonds combine a fixed interest rate with added payments tied to inflation. Currently, they yield over 4%, but are capped at $10,000 per person annually. You must hold them for at least five years to avoid penalties, and taxes on the interest can be deferred. If inflation surges, these are especially attractive. Take Action to Grow Whether you're approaching retirement or simply cautious, these seven strategies equip you to earn more on your savings while keeping risk in check.

The future of human evolution will not be decided by genes alone, but by meaning, choice, and culture itself. In this Part 2 of our conversation, Dr. Liane Gabora (University of British Columbia) explores how ideas evolve through creativity, cooperation, and intentional change rather than blind copying. We examine why cultures fracture, recombine, and sometimes collapse. And how concepts behave more like dynamic systems than fixed beliefs. What emerges is a vision of human evolution driven by minds in relationship, where the next phase depends less on survival and more on how we choose to think.Part 1: https://youtu.be/8mnHM7lyfOEPATREON https://www.patreon.com/c/demystifysciPARADIGM DRIFThttps://demystifysci.com/paradigm-drift-showHOMEBREW MUSIC - Check out our new album!Hard Copies (Vinyl): FREE SHIPPING https://demystifysci-shop.fourthwall.com/products/vinyl-lp-secretary-of-nature-everything-is-so-good-hereStreaming:https://secretaryofnature.bandcamp.com/album/everything-is-so-good-here00:00 Go!

After more than 20 years of homesteading, we are looking back and sharing what we wish we had known when we first started.In this episode of Everyday Homesteading, we talk honestly about the mistakes we made, the pressure to do everything at once, and the lessons that helped us find a more peaceful, sustainable rhythm. From gardening and kitchen skills to land size, infrastructure, and people-first priorities, this conversation is full of perspective for anyone feeling overwhelmed on their homesteading journey.Whether you're just getting started or you've been at this for years, we hope this episode helps you slow down, focus on what matters most, and remember that homesteading is a lifelong journey, not a destination.

What does a “Year of Rest” actually look like on a working homestead?In this episode, we're reflecting on our decision to slow down over the past year, what changed, what stayed the same, and what surprised us along the way. We share how cutting big projects brought more margin into our days, why rest doesn't mean the work disappears, and how an unplanned cabin build for the next generation fit into our bigger vision.This is an honest, end-of-year conversation about pace, sustainability, and having the courage to adjust before burnout forces it.If you're feeling tired, scattered, or unsure how to move into the next season, we hope this episode encourages you to slow down and have an honest conversation about what really matters.Thanks to Azure Standard for sponsoring this week's podcast.

What if paying massive taxes every year wasn't inevitable and what if the wealthiest families in America were playing an entirely different game than you were taught? In this episode of Grow Your Business & Grow Your Wealth, Gary Heldt sits down with Mark Miller, CEO of Hilton Tax & Wealth Advisors and Manager of the Hilton Family Office. With nearly four decades of experience, Mark pulls back the curtain on how elite families legally reduce taxes, protect capital, and grow generational wealth. Mark explains why most business owners unknowingly overpay taxes, why traditional financial planning often fails to meet the needs of high earners, and how real tax planning is a forward-looking strategy, not a year-end scramble. He shares the personal story that changed his entire career when a single strategy saved him over half a million dollars in taxes and ultimately moved him into a zero tax bracket. This conversation is a must-listen for business owners, executives, and six-figure earners who want to stop leaving money on the table and start thinking like an American dynasty. Key Takeaways→ Why most CPAs focus on compliance, not proactive tax planning→ The difference between retail investing and smart money strategies→ How layered tax strategies outperform one-time deductions→ Why buying assets for write-offs is not real tax mitigation→ How wealthy families prioritize safety, patience, and long-term planning→ How institutional-level tax and investment strategies are now accessible to business owners→ Why tax planning must happen before December 31, not after About the GuestMark Miller, RFC, is CEO of Hilton Tax & Wealth Advisors and Manager of the Hilton Family Office. With nearly 40 years of experience, Mark helps business owners and executives legally reduce taxes, maximize deductions, and structure wealth for long term growth and legacy preservation. His strategies mirror those used by Fortune 500 firms and elite families, including the Hiltons.

A century of seasons has worn the appearance of the log cabin Roy Fure built in present-day Katmai National Park and Preserve in Alaska, but his care of the small cabin, and later National Park Service restoration efforts, have enabled it to stand the test of time. Dovetail-notched spruce logs still sit tightly together, the corrugated metal roof Fure replaced his sod roof with in 1930 and painted red could use a new coat of paint, but otherwise looks rainproof, and the windmill he erected to generate electricity still stands tall. Across the 85+ million-acre National Park System there are tens of thousands of historic structures — 19th-century homesteads, Civil War structures, Civil Rights facilities, presidential homes, artworks and more — but not all receive the same treatment as Fure's cabin. • At Oregon Caves National Monument and Preserve in Oregon, the historic, and once charming, Chateau with 23 rooms has been closed since 2018 due to structural issues and a lack of funding to address them. • In Kansas, the Park Service last year gained title to the First Baptist Church at Nicodemus National Historic Site, but a lack of funding has left the 118-year-old house of worship boarded up. • At Gettysburg National Military Park the David Wills house, where President Lincoln spent the night before delivering his address, has been closed since fall 2024 when a water line burst and flooded the structure. Those are just a very small handful of historic structures in the National Park System that are among thousands competing for scarce rehabilitation dollars. To discuss the situation across the park system we've invited Pam Bowman, the senior director of government relations at the National Trust for Historic Preservation.
If you have ever found yourself saying, “This winter, we'll finally rest,” you are not alone. Josh and I have joked about it for years, imagining a slower season that somehow never quite arrives on its own.In this episode of Everyday Homesteading, I'm sharing what I've been learning about real rest. Not just getting more sleep, but the kind of deep, soul-level rest that brings clarity, peace, and renewed purpose. The kind of rest that helps you remember your why.We talk about why rest never happens by accident, how much control we actually have over our overwhelm, and what intentional rest can look like in the middle of real homestead life. From simplifying digital noise to creating gentler rhythms at home, this is a conversation about choosing rest on purpose.If you're heading into a new season feeling tired, stretched thin, or quietly longing for slower days, this episode is an invitation to pause, breathe, and make room for rest that truly restores.For more information, visit the blog post here: https://homesteadingfamily.com/finding-rest-in-the-quiet-times/Thanks to Laurel Mountain Soaps for sponsoring this podcast episode.

I am your host, CW3 Marcus Harvey, an Army Warrant Officer, educator, and Warrant Officer Historical Foundation Fellow with a long-standing interest in Army history and the Warrant Officer profession.Across the season, I will chat with historians and today's Warrant Officers to explore how experience, trust, and technical expertise have shaped the Army across branches and generations. The conversations connect past lessons to present-day service and look ahead to the future of the force.Produced in partnership with the Warrant Officer Historical Foundation, A Legacy of Service isn't just about history; it's about understanding where the profession comes from and why it continues to matter, often outside the spotlight.If you enjoy thoughtful conversations about military history, leadership, and the people who keep complex systems running, this season is worth a listen.

The Trump administration plans to weaken the Endangered Species Act, and that could impact the fate of an ancient creature found in Appalachia: the eastern hellbender salamander. The Allegheny Front's Julie Grant recently visited a new preserve dedicated to hellbenders and found not only natural history – but American history. The post New Preserve To Protect Hellbender Salamander, This West Virginia Morning appeared first on West Virginia Public Broadcasting.

Welcome back to Everyday Homesteading. Today I'm sitting down with two people I deeply respect and always enjoy talking with, Shawn and Beth Dougherty. If you have ever wondered whether a family milk cow actually fits into a busy modern homestead, or if you've been feeling that tug toward a simpler, more land-rooted way of feeding your family, this conversation is for you.Shawn and Beth have spent more than twenty-five years raising a large family, stewarding rough Appalachian ground, and building a thriving homestead centered around the grass-fed family cow. Their new book, One Cow Revolution, takes everything they've learned and puts it into a guide that feels like having a wise neighbor over the fence.We talk about why the dairy cow is still one of the most powerful tools for food independence, how managed grazing can rebuild soil and family culture, and why the cow is far less of a burden than most people fear. Whether you already have a cow, hope to bring one home someday, or think you never will, you'll walk away from this episode with a whole new sense of what's possible.Let's dive in.- Grab a copy of One Cow Revolution here: https://a.co/d/gAx6o34- Check out the accompanying blog post here: https://homesteadingfamily.com/can-anyone-keep-a-dairy-cow- Thanks to Lehman's for sponsoring today's podcast.

Resistance training for aging nerves helps older adults improve steadiness, reaction time, and daily movement confidence by strengthening communication between nerves and muscles A four-week hand-grip training program from Syracuse University showed that simple, consistent resistance exercise helps speed up how quickly nerves send signals to muscles, even in older adults While the approach supports nerve health, it's not a cure for neuropathy or a guaranteed fall-prevention solution. Evidence remains early and based on short-term trials Do two to three resistance sessions each week at a moderate effort level. Include a short, five-minute grip routine to strengthen nerve signaling and improve coordination Pair your training with balanced, protein-rich meals to support muscle recovery and nerve function. Make sure to also prioritize safety — use proper form and stop if you feel pain, dizziness, or unusual tingling

MAXOUT Your Mind Masterclass: Protect Your Peace Have you ever noticed how quickly your peace can disappear the moment someone cuts you off in traffic or a negative comment shows up online? In this episode of the MAXOUT Your Mind Masterclass, I'm taking you deep into one of the most important lessons I've ever learned: how to protect your peace and preserve your bliss no matter what's happening around you. Because the truth is, the quality of your life is the quality of your emotions. If you're constantly surrendering your peace to external circumstances or difficult people, you're never really in control of your life. I share personal stories that made me stop and ask myself, Who's really winning the game of life? The one with the mansion or the one with peace? I talk about the time I stayed calm in traffic when someone tried to provoke me, and another moment that challenged me to respond with grace instead of judgment. These experiences taught me that emotional mastery isn't about avoiding chaos, it's about remaining steady in it. Real strength is when your external world doesn't get to dictate your internal state. In this Masterclass, I walk you through how to identify the people, thoughts, and habits that are stealing your bliss and how to reclaim it. I'll show you the exact exercise I used to create two lists: one for what feeds my peace and another for what drains it. From there, I share the surprising things that elevate my state of bliss like being outdoors, moving my body, listening to worship music, and cutting 85% of the noise from my social media and news intake. These small shifts can change everything about how you experience your life. The goal isn't to live in a bubble where nothing challenges you. Life will always bring problems, stress, and uncertainty. But when you learn to stay grounded in grace and gratitude through it all, you step into a level of peace that can't be shaken. You become the thermostat, not the thermometer. And that's when you start to truly MAXOUT your mind, your relationships, and your joy. Key Takeaways: How to protect your peace and preserve your bliss in a chaotic world Why emotional mastery is the foundation of success and fulfillment How to identify what (and who) steals your peace and reduce their power by 85% The surprising habits that feed your inner joy and raise your emotional thermostat Why serving others and extending grace is the fastest path to restoring peace Your peace is sacred.
