Podcasts about Priority

August 2, 2026

This episode was made in partnership with the International AIDS Society (IAS), Young Leaders Programme. ---- Host Ben Plumley wraps up the A Shot in the Arm Podcast from AIDS 2026 in Rio de Janeiro with Zarawu Adams, a medical scientist from Salama Clinic in Accra, Ghana, reflecting on an exhausting but valuable week balancing conference sessions with the IAS' Young Leaders Programme. Adams highlights research linking antiretroviral treatment to metabolic crises such as type 2 diabetes, including work focused on pregnant women, and confirms through conversations with scientific leaders that this issue is still under-emphasized. She describes the Young Leaders program as a diverse international advocacy network across HIV and other infectious diseases that builds connections, fills gaps, and broadens engagement beyond science to policy, innovation, and activism. Adams emphasizes resilience, the funding crisis, and the urgent need to tackle stigma and discrimination – particularly as a driver of suicide, while noting increased visibility for LGBT communities within the IAS space. 00:00 Welcome to Rio 00:53 Metabolic Risks Spotlight 03:15 Young Leaders Program 04:53 Networking and Advice 07:26 Stigma and Discrimination 08:32 Activism and Funding Crisis 10:36 Resilience and New Ideas 14:27 Priority on Stigma 15:41 LGBTQ and Closing Reflections 17:54 Final Thanks and Sign Off Guests: Zarawu Adams Medical Scientist, Salama Clinic, Accra, Ghana AIDS 2026 https://www.iasociety.org/conferences/aids2026 Check Out Ben's Substack: https://substack.com/@benplumley1 Join the Conversation!

Back in April, the white-paper dreamers in Washington told you the Russian state was a rational actor optimizing its war effort. We used the Ponyatiya analytics engine to predict an August logistical meltdown and a regional liquidity freeze. Tomorrow is August, and the Wildberries hubs, energy refineries, and regional budgets are burning on schedule.1. Domestic Energy Rationing & The Moscow Fuel Vacuum — 95% ProbabilityBy October 2026, the Kremlin will be forced to introduce formal, centralized fuel rationing across Western Russia and the Moscow region. Priority will be stripped from civilian transport and domestic logistics to feed the military apparatus, triggering localized black-market fuel rates exceeding $2.50 to $3.00 (200–240 RUB) per liter in provincial hubs.2. Complete Commercial Logistics Paralysis & Black-Market Dominance — 90% ProbabilityBy Q4 2026, major e-commerce platforms will officially abandon centralized regional fulfillment in high-risk zones (Volgograd, Tatarstan, Krasnodar, Ryazan). Civilian goods distribution will fracture into localized, cartel-run black markets where private security groups (MOGs) charge up to $7,500 (600,000 RUB) per run, completely outpricing state-subsidized retail.3. The September Mobilization Wave & Feudal Labor Battalions — 85% Probability Following the September Duma elections, Moscow will execute a mandatory mobilization wave of 300,000 to 500,000 men. To prevent urban panic, the state will simultaneously implement 17th-century feudal labor laws, converting underperforming agricultural, industrial, and municipal workers into forced "rear-support" penal units to keep the harvest and rail lines from completely collapsing.4. "Bratva 2.0" Cartel Warfare in Provincial Cities — 80% Probability By late Autumn 2026, returning combat veterans will merge with established organized crime syndicates to create Bratva 2.0. Armed clashes between veteran-led cartels, regional police, and migrant labor networks over protection rackets, drug distribution, and local food supplies will paralyze provincial cities across the Urals and Southern Russia.5. Peripheral Asset-Stripping & Regional Economic Stampede — 75% ProbabilityBy Winter 2026/2027, regional governors and local elites will stop waiting for Moscow's checks to clear. Following Wildberries' lead in buying up Kazakh logistics space, regional oligarchs will initiate covert asset-stripping, withholding local resource tax revenues and issuing localized barter instruments or promissory notes to keep their populations fed, effectively triggering the de facto economic fragmentation of the Russian Federation.Become our patron:https://www.patreon.com/theeasternborderMerch store + another option for memberships:https://theeasternborder-shop.fourthwall.com/Follow what's going on here in the very border of Eastern Europe:https://bsky.app/profile/theeasternborder.lvDownload all episodes for free on our website; pictures accompanying certain episodes can be found there as well!http://theeasternborder.lv/Car4Ukraine Eastern Border Summer Campaign!https://car4ukraine.com/campaigns/summer-sunshine-trucks-2026-eastern-borderSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/theeasternborder.

A California resident has filed a proposed class-action lawsuit against Uber Eats, alleging that the company's priority delivery fee is a deceptive trade practice. The legal complaint characterizes the "direct to you" surcharge as a sham, claiming that couriers often make additional stops despite customers paying a premium for immediate service. The plaintiff argues that users have no way to verify if their orders are truly prioritized, leading to hundreds of millions of dollars in potentially fraudulent charges. This litigation surfaces as the Federal Trade Commission heightens its scrutiny of hidden fees and pricing transparency within the food delivery industry. Legal experts and industry observers suggest this case highlights a broader frustration with misleading wait times and delivery promises across various ride-sharing and logistics platforms.

The article explores the story of the paralytic man in Mark 2, highlighting how Jesus prioritizes spiritual forgiveness over physical healing to address humanity's deepest need. It explains that true biblical faith is active and desperate, demonstrated by the friends who tore open a roof to bring the man before Jesus, and emphasizes that only God has the authority to pardon sins. Ultimately, the piece calls readers to live in the freedom of this grace, forgiving others and actively interceding for those who are spiritually stuck.

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20260728dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion So God said to [Solomon]. . . “I will do what you have asked. I will give you a wise and discerning heart.” 1 Kings 3:11-12 Priority Solomon had just become the next king of Israel. He was about twenty years old. In lavish generosity, the Lord said a breathtaking thing. He said to Solomon, “Ask for whatever you want me to give you.” “Ask for whatever you want me to give you.” In your prayers right now, what is your most common request? Although we have the high privilege of talking to the Lord about anything, my sinful weakness can show up in my prayer life, too. There are periods in my life when I could fit most of my prayer requests under one big umbrella, and on that umbrella is one big word: “Easier.” I want God to make my life easier. I want him to remove difficulties. I want him to make my life more convenient. I want him to make my world more comfortable. I want him to clear my path of those things that create hardship, pain, loneliness, uncertainty, or grief. And while it’s not wrong to pray for any of these things, if the priority in my prayer life is simply for God to make my life easy, then I have forgotten why I am here. And for such forgetfulness, the Lord calls upon me to repent. Solomon had the chance to ask for anything—anything at all. He could ask for wealth. He could ask for a long life. He could ask for an easy reign through the removal of his enemies. But he didn’t. Instead, he asked for wisdom. He asked the Lord to give him what he needed to serve in this difficult, broken world. On our behalf, God the Son came here. In our place, he lived a life of perfect faithfulness. As our substitute, he suffered and died for our every sin. Then he arose. In him we stand forgiven, cleansed, at peace. As you and I now live to shine his light in this dark place, our privilege and priority is to ask the Lord to provide us with what we need to serve him. Prayer: Lord, thank you for the privilege of asking you for anything. Give me wisdom. Make my priorities your priorities. Amen. Daily Devotions is brought to you by WELS.

Meetings don't consume time. They create leverage. The moment a business begins to grow, the doctor faces a choice: remain the person solving every problem or become the leader who develops people capable of solving them. That transition rarely happens by accident, and it often reveals itself in the way meetings are run.  In this episode, Dr. Stephen and Dr. Pete unpack the Millionaire Meeting Framework, a seven-step process designed to transform meetings from routine conversations into high-leverage opportunities for alignment, accountability, leadership development, and execution. From creating clarity around PRIORITY to empowering team members to think critically and bring solutions instead of problems, this episode provides a practical roadmap for moving beyond owner-operator thinking and building a business that can grow through people rather than depend on them.In This Episode You Will Discover:  Why the most valuable meetings often start with a question most leaders skip  The hidden reason smart teams continue solving the wrong problems  A framework that develops leaders instead of creating more dependence  How one simple question can completely change the quality of team conversations  The difference between a meeting that consumes time and one that creates leverage   Episode Highlights 02:10 - Meetings don't consume time. They create leverage, and the best leaders know how to multiply their impact through them.  05:17 - The fastest leaders aren't the ones who rush meetings. They're the ones who bring a framework.  07:14 - Question 1: How are you doing? A one-minute check-in sets the tone before the business begins.  08:20 - Question 2: What is our priority? Every great meeting starts by identifying the one constraint that matters most.  11:28 - Question 3: What is the objective of this meeting? Clarify the problem before trying to solve it.  15:08 - Question 4: What is your 1-3-1? Great leaders don't collect problems. They develop critical thinkers.  18:41 - Question 5: How can I help you? Support replaces rescue when a leader chooses coaching over taking ownership of every task.  20:47 - Question 6: Do we have a solution? Alignment happens when expectations become clear agreements.  21:02 - Question 7: What is your takeaway? Every meeting ends with do what, by whom, and by when. 21:45 - Imaging technology is evolving rapidly, and chiropractors have more opportunities than ever to improve efficiency and patient care. Dr. Pete sits down with J.R. Marsee from Success Partner Blue Ridge Imaging to explore turnkey imaging solutions, ongoing support, and the growing role of AI in modern chiropractic practices. Together, they discuss how the right technology partner can help practices operate with greater confidence today while preparing for the future.   Resources Mentioned To learn more about the REM CEO Program, please visit:  http://www.theremarkablepractice.com/rem-ceo For more information about Blue Ridge Imaging please visit: https://blueridgeimagingtechnologies.com Book a Strategy Session with Dr. Pete - https://go.oncehub.com/PodcastPC Prefer to watch?

Every stable system depends upon a dominant center. Astronomers have long recognized that when multiple celestial bodies of similar mass exert comparable gravitational influence over one another, the result is instability. There is no single authority that governs the movements of the others, and the system becomes increasingly chaotic. By contrast, our own solar system displays extraordinary stability because one body is incomparably greater than all the others. The sun's overwhelming mass establishes the paths of the earth, the moon, and every planet that belongs to its system. Everything moves in relation to it.This physical reality provides a profound picture of the human condition. Every life has competing centers of gravity. We are constantly pulled by ourselves, by the expectations and pressures of the world, and by God. If these influences are treated as equals, life becomes spiritually unstable. Every decision becomes a negotiation between competing authorities. Every circumstance introduces a new center. Anxiety, confusion, and inconsistency naturally follow because nothing possesses the authority to govern everything else.The Christian faith proclaims that God has already solved this problem. The answer is not to eliminate responsibilities or withdraw from the world. Rather, the answer is to establish the proper center. The New Testament presents Jesus Christ as the One who occupies that position. Paul writes that "He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together" (Colossians 1:17). Christ is not merely another influence competing for our attention. He is the Creator, Sustainer, and Lord of creation itself. The universe already revolves around Him whether humanity acknowledges Him or not. The invitation of discipleship is therefore not simply to believe in Jesus, but to reorder our lives around the One who already governs reality.This is why the imagery of the sun becomes so meaningful. The sun does not merely exist within the solar system; it defines the solar system. Its gravity establishes order. Its light reveals reality. Its warmth makes life possible. Remove the sun, and everything descends into darkness, coldness, and eventual destruction. Likewise, remove Christ from the center of human existence, and people are left attempting to construct meaning, morality, and purpose from sources incapable of sustaining them. The slides' first assertion—"He is the Great Power Bringing Order to this World"—captures this truth. Christ does not simply improve life; He establishes the very framework in which life flourishes.The second statement naturally follows: "You Must Move Entirely in Relation to Him." The earth does not occasionally consult the sun before choosing its orbit. Every aspect of its movement is defined by its relationship to the greater body. Likewise, discipleship is not about adding Jesus to an already full life. It is about allowing every decision, ambition, relationship, and value to find its meaning through Him. Scripture repeatedly emphasizes this reality. Jesus calls His followers to deny themselves, take up their cross daily, and follow Him. Paul describes Christians as those who no longer live for themselves but for Him who died and rose again on their behalf. Christ is not simply first among many priorities; He is the center from which every other priority receives its proper place.The final statement moves beyond order to mission: "The World Receives His Light from You." This image intentionally shifts from astronomy to theology. The moon possesses no light of its own. Every ray that reaches the earth originates from the sun. The moon simply reflects what it has first received. Scripture describes believers in remarkably similar language. Jesus declared, "I am the Light of the world" (John 8:12), yet He also told His disciples, "You are the light of the world" (Matthew 5:14). These statements are not contradictory because Christian light is derivative rather than independent. Believers do not generate truth, righteousness, or life from themselves. They receive the life of Christ and reflect His character into a dark world.This understanding guards against two opposite errors. On the one hand, it prevents self-exaltation. The moon never mistakes itself for the sun. Christians are not called to become the source of salvation, wisdom, or hope. Every good thing they possess has been received from Christ. On the other hand, it also guards against passivity. Although the moon produces no light, it still fills the night sky with remarkable brilliance because it faithfully reflects the light it receives. Likewise, Christ has chosen to make His people the visible expression of His presence until His return. Through their words, their holiness, their compassion, and their proclamation of the gospel, the world encounters the light of Christ.The progression of these images therefore, tells a complete theological story. First, Christ occupies the center because only His greatness can establish lasting order. Second, humanity discovers stability only by orienting every aspect of life entirely around Him. Finally, those who remain in His light become instruments through which that same light reaches the world. The Christian life is not fundamentally about self-improvement or moral achievement. It is about proper orientation. When the Son becomes the Sun, everything else finally finds its rightful orbit, and the light that has transformed us naturally shines into the darkness around us. In that sense, the goal of discipleship is beautifully simple: remain facing the Sun, and the world will see His light reflected through you.

Our 4th and final NT norm is the centrality of prayer in the life of the early church. Listen in as we share 4 "P" observations on prayer - It was a Priority; It Preceded the filling and work of the Spirit; It was the church's response to Persecution; and it was Personal and Persistent. 4 P's: 1-Priority. Begins the book of Acts—“All these with one accord were devoting themselves to prayer, together with the women and Mary the mother of Jesus, and his brothers" (1:14).  In Ch. 2, the church was praying when the Holy Spirit filled them.  Acts 2:42- he church was devoted to prayer. It was one of the first things that marked them out—alongside the apostle's teaching, breaking the bread, and fellowship. Acts 6: We see the priority of prayer even more strikingly when the apostles single out prayer alongside of the ministry of the Word as their primary responsibility. “But we will devote ourselves to prayer and to the ministry of the word.” “I stand here to confess frankly that from my inmost heart I attribute the large prosperity which God has given to this Church vastly more to the prayers of the people than to anything that God may have given to me. I know it is so.” - Charles Spurgeon 2-Precedes the filling and work of the Spirit.  Acts 2 begins with the believers all together in one place, praying. And we know what happened next—the sound from heaven like a mighty rushing wind, filling the house where they were.  Acts 4- The believers are gathered together praying in the midst of persecution—praying specifically for boldness. “And when they had prayed, the place in which they were gathered together was shaken, and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and continued to speak the word of God with boldness" (4:31). Acts 13- The prophets and teachers of the church in Antioch were gathered and they were worshipping the Lord and fasting. Just then the Holy Spirit calls out Barnabas and Saul. And after fasting and praying they laid their hands on them and sent them off.  These are pretty pivotal moments in the history of the gospel—especially in Chapters 2 and 13. And we see that God's people had been devoting themselves to prayer in the time leading up to these great events—these experiences of the Spirit's work. Prayer had paved the way for these people to respond when the Spirit showed up.  3-Persecution- Prayer was the church's consistent response to persecution. Acts 4- Peter and John have just been threatened by the high-priestly council. "When they were released, they went to their friends and reported what the chief priests and the elders had said to them. And when they heard it, they lifted their voices together to God and said, “Sovereign Lord. . .” (4:23-24). Their immediate reaction to the threat of violence from the ruling authorities was to pray. And hear what they prayed: “And now, Lord, look upon their threats and grant to your servants to continue to speak your word with all boldness, while you stretch out your hand to heal, and signs and wonders are performed through the name of your holy servant Jesus.”  Acts 12- Peter is in prison and miraculously rescued by an angel of the Lord. When he is rescued, it says “he went to the house of Mary, the mother of John whose other name was Mark, where many were gathered together and were praying.” Again, the response of the church to the persecution of her people is to pray.  Acts 16- Paul and Silas in prison. “About midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the prisoners were listening to them.” In the midst of persecution, we find these two workers praying and singing hymns.  Prayer is what we do when we are persecuted. It is the response of God's church to the threats and persecutions. In each of these moments, God miraculously answered. 4-Personal and Persistent. In Acts, we don't get much details about the personal prayer lives of the apostles. Many references are to the church praying corporately. However in Paul's epistles, we find Paul talking about his own prayer life all over the place – way too many to reference, will just name a few- Eph. 1:16- "I do not cease to give thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers…" and we see his personal prayer for the Ephesian believers.  Eph. 3:14-19. Paul's prayers were important enough for him to write out for them and for us. A few examples from 1st Thessalonians: 1 Thess. 1:2- "We give thanks to God always for all of you, constantly mentioning you in our prayers." 1 Thess. 5:17- "Pray without ceasing." 1 Thess. 5:25- "Brothers, pray for us."  Paul was not voicing prayers for believers every moment of every day. He was sometimes preaching the gospel; he was sometimes sleeping; he was sometimes eating or traveling. But he had such a habit of prayer that he described it as day and night, constant.  Eph. 6:10-20- Paul teaches us that we are in a spiritual battle and prayer is an essential weapon. Paul commands us to take the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God, praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication. The Word, The Spirit, and constant prayer. As we've found these 4 NT norms, we have seen in a new way for us how intertwined they are. The Word bears fruit by the power of the Spirit. The Spirit honors and responds to the preaching of the Word and obedience to the Word and prayer. Prayer is what invites the Holy Spirit to work in our lives, and there is no real prayer without the presence of the Holy Spirit in our lives. Prayer was seen as part of the work of the church. It was at the center of their ministry. We have a saying among our teams here that prayer is the greater work. We believe that because we ultimately believe that this work we're doing is His work. It doesn't move forward unless He moves and the Spirit grants repentance and life. Paul said, “I planted, Apollos watered, but God gives the growth.” Prayer is an admission of our helplessness and a plea for God to do what only He can do. That's why we see the early church devoting themselves to it. Prayer was necessary to them—it was just a part of their lives, and of their gathering together. If you are listening and feel like you're a terrible pray-er, don't give into discouragement or paralysis or accusations --- just start! Read a good book on prayer. Make sure you're spending daily time with God alone in the Word and in prayer. Use your drive or shower to pray. Post a prayer list by your bathroom mirror and pray as you brush your teeth. Set a timer for a certain time each day. 12:12, 3:10. And ask God for help!  This concludes our series on NT norms – daily ministry, the Word, the Spirit, and prayer.  

Welcome to the third episode of the Coach's Corner Series! We live in a culture that celebrates being busy, but very few people stop to ask what that constant pace is actually doing to their bodies.  In this episode, I'm joined by Vital Spark Coach Mackenzie for an honest conversation about the connection between chronic stress, mindset, and physical health. We explore why stress isn't just emotional, it can influence digestion, hormones, inflammation, energy, and even your ability to reach your health goals. You'll hear why your body responds to a packed schedule the same way it responds to many other perceived threats, and how that keeps so many women stuck in a constant state of fight-or-flight. We also unpack why stress management doesn't have to mean hour-long meditation sessions or completely overhauling your routine.  Instead, we share practical ways to regulate your nervous system in the middle of a busy day, from taking a few intentional breaths before meals to finding small moments of calm that fit into real life. We talk about how shifting from frantic energy to calm energy can completely change the way your body responds, even when your schedule doesn't slow down.  Coach Mackenzie also shares how she coaches busy moms, healthcare professionals, and women with demanding careers to prioritize their health without adding more pressure to their plates. One of my favorite parts of this conversation is our discussion around gratitude and the powerful mindset shift from "I have to" toward "I get to."  We also explore why approaching your health journey with curiosity instead of perfection creates far more sustainable results over time. If you've been feeling overwhelmed, constantly on the go, or wondering why your body isn't responding despite your best efforts, I think this episode will help you connect some important dots.  My hope is that you'll walk away realizing that supporting your nervous system doesn't require perfection, it simply starts with creating a little more space for your body to feel safe.   Time Stamps:   (2:27) Why Women Struggle Putting Themselves First (5:51) What Our Successful Clients Do (8:44) Handling Constipation (14:02) Clarity on What To Focus On (16:17) Managing Sleep --------------------- Find Out More Information on Vital Spark Coaching --------------------- Follow @vanessagfitness on Instagram for daily fitness tips & motivation.  --------------------- Download Our FREE Metabolism-Boosting Workout Program --------------------- Join the Women's Metabolism Secrets Facebook Community for 25+ videos teaching you how to start losing fat without hating your life! --------------------- Click here to send me a message on Facebook and we'll see how I can help or what best free resources I can share! --------------------- Interested in 1-on-1 Coaching with my team of Metabolism & Hormone Experts?

Democrats are demoralized. They have no coherent message, no inspiring leadership, and a policy record so catastrophic that their own voters are abandoning them in record numbers. And they are still going to win in November. Not because they deserve to. Not because the American people want them back in power. But because Republicans — who control the House, the Senate, and the White House — cannot get out of their own way long enough to deliver on the promises that put them there. Today I want to walk you through four specific things. Four areas where the Republican Party either delivers before November — or hands 2026 to the Left on a silver platter. And for each one of them, I'm going to tell you exactly what the president has the authority to do — constitutionally — right now. Not someday. Right now.SPONSOR: Angel StudiosYoung Washington tells the untold origin story of George Washington at 20, showing how his failures and near-death experiences shaped the leader who won America's independence.

With football season fast approaching, the conversation zeroes in on the Washington Commanders' offense: just how critical is it for the front office to bring in another wide receiver, and what profile of pass-catcher makes the biggest difference for the team's trajectory?

The panel reacts to Conor McGregor's injury and what it means for his future, Paddy Pimblett's breakout performance and whether he's ready for the UFC's elite, Mario Bautista's statement win, Brandon Royval's continued rise in the flyweight division, and King Green's performance on one of the biggest cards of the year.

Will the event's viewership rival—or even surpass—the historic UFC White House card? The panel shares its predictions and discusses what the numbers could mean for the UFC's new broadcast era. While official UFC 329 viewership figures have not yet been released, industry speculation has focused on whether the event can approach the White House card's massive audience.

Welcome to McCarthy Mondays on Weighing In!

The guys take a deep dive into the controversial early stoppages that had MMA fans debating all weekend. Big John explains exactly what referees are taught to look for, when a fight should be stopped, and whether the officials made the right calls in the night's most talked-about finishes. Several stoppages, including Luke Riley vs. Kai Kamaka III and King Green vs. Terrance McKinney, sparked widespread debate among fans and fighters alike. Josh and Big John also recap the rest of UFC 329, including the fallout from the main event between Conor McGregor and Max Holloway, the standout performances across the card, the biggest winners and losers, and what the results mean for the UFC moving forward.

AI headlines have already moved on to the deep end. Most businesses haven't. Every week brings another headline about what's next for AI. Build your own model. Train your own LLM. Customize everything. It's exciting, unless you're one of the thousands of companies still trying to answer a much simpler question: where does AI actually fit into the work we do every day? Here's the thing. AI has become everyone's priority and almost nobody's job. Leadership knows it matters but the real work still lives inside thousands of everyday workflows, where tribal knowledge, context, and experience drive the decisions. That's the gap, and it's a very different problem than the one the headlines are chasing. That's the conversation Rob and Justin have this week. Sparked by Satya Nadella's comment that every company should eventually have its own LLM, they make the case that the industry is getting ahead of itself. As Rob puts it, "Everyone's sitting poolside and Satya's talking about the deep end." Most organizations don't need a custom model. They need AI that understands their business, their data, and their workflows. That's where the biggest wins are happening today, and it's exactly where companies should be focused before they start worrying about building their own LLM. If AI has started to feel like an arms race you somehow missed, this episode is a welcome reminder that the biggest opportunities are still waiting in the shallow end.

Thomas Savidge argues for stringent budget reforms and spending cuts to address the fiscal crisis.
