His larger point is that the Dunning Kruger effect is not a partisan trait. Hawk argues it shows up just as often on the left as on the right, and he pushes back on the idea that acknowledging hard truths and respecting expertise are somehow in conflict.On the Clancy case itself, Hawk holds two things at once. He says the expanded public conversation about postpartum depression and postpartum psychosis is genuinely valuable, while also insisting the three children who died deserve to be remembered. He restates his view that the case was overcharged and reads as a not guilty by reason of insanity matter, even as the evidence points to Clancy rather than her husband.

When it comes to maintaining a nutritional supplement regimen, the decisive question is not "what's in the bottle" — it's what makes a person actually take it, day after day, long after the first burst of motivation fades Motivation behaves like weather: it rolls in and rolls out. Any routine that depends on feeling inspired every morning is built on sand Friction is where habits die. Every extra step becomes another reason to skip a dose, and people rarely quit a supplement routine in one dramatic moment; they drift, one missed dose at a time We are creatures of cue and context: habits anchored to something we already do, like a meal, tend to stick, while habits that depend on memory and willpower tend to evaporate So, we're redesigning some of our supplements to work with how people actually behave — fewer steps and a food-first format anchored to eating — so staying consistent barely depends on willpower at all
In Episode 299 of the Fit Father Project Podcast, Dr. Anthony Balduzzi steps away from the usual guest format to do something different — and personal.As the show approaches its 300th episode, Dr. A sits down solo to share 10 of the most powerful physical health and longevity lessons he's learned over 15 years building the Fit Father and Fit Mother communities.This is part one of a two-part series, covering the training, nutrition, sleep, and recovery insights that have shaped his own evolving approach to staying strong for life.Part two — covering mindset, relationships, and fulfillment — drops next episode.From why explosive "speed training" may be the most overlooked key to staying young, to why nutrient density matters more than macros once your basics are dialed in, to the deep-cleaning protocols he personally uses once or twice a year — this episode is a masterclass in what actually moves the needle after 40.Rate & Review — If this episode gave you something new to think about, please take a moment to rate and review the Fit Father Project Podcast. Your review helps more busy dads discover practical, science-backed health conversations that can genuinely change their lives.Join the Fit Father Project Community — If you're ready to put these lessons into action with support, accountability, and a brotherhood of men committed to thriving after 40, come join us. We're here to help you build real, lasting health together.Key TakeawaysMove fast or get old — fast-twitch motor units decline starting in your 30s-40s and accelerate in your 50s-60s; explosive training (sprints, plyometrics, assault bike intervals) is what keeps your nervous system young and prevents the falls that come with aging.Adaptability is the keystone of longevity training — what worked in your 30s won't work the same in your 50s and beyond; the goal is progressively joint-friendly, sustainable movement (dumbbells, kettlebells, calisthenics) you can do for life."Eustress" is the name of the game — good stress (lifting, sprinting, fasting, even polyphenols in blueberries) is what signals your body to adapt and grow stronger; the moment you stop applying it is the moment decline accelerates.Macros are level one, nutrient density is level two — once your protein, carbs, and fats are dialed in, the next upgrade is prioritizing micronutrient-dense foods like organ meats, egg yolks, salmon, cruciferous veggies, berries, and colorful carbs.Clean water is the basis of life — municipal tap water and plastic bottles introduce chlorine byproducts, heavy metals, and microplastics; whole-home filtration plus reverse osmosis water (with minerals added back in) is a foundational health upgrade.Cleanse your body once or twice a year — like deep-cleaning your house or car, periodic multi-day fasts or juice cleanses help clear your "total body burden" of heavy metals, plastics, and other accumulated toxins.Sleep is your highest-leverage, most under-optimized habit — sleep regulates inflammation, hormones, and recovery more than any workout; under-sleeping is the fastest path to overtraining, anxiety, and low motivation.Circadian rhythm and nature connection drive recovery — morning sunlight, blue-light blocking at night, and grounding your feet on the earth all measurably reduce inflammation and improve energy.Don't guess, test — get advanced labs (vitamin D3, full thyroid panel, ApoB, hs-CRP, microbiome testing) instead of relying on how you feel; objective data catches deficiencies you'd never notice otherwise.Injuries are part of the process, not the end of it — every setback (Dr. A has broken his arm five times and had seven leg reconstructions) is an opportunity to learn your body deeper and come back stronger; staying in the game long-term is what actually matters.10 Health Lessons From 15 Years Building Fit Father & Fit Mother (Ep. 299)Want To Change Your Life?

Christianity is broken into various denominations, and countless interpretations of them. Recently there's been an increase in claims about the supremacy of Orthodox Christianity. Attempts to acquire interviews with orthodox Christians have resulted in requests for money or insults. On this episode, we go to the source and explore the tenants of orthodox theology: the Trinity, Jesus as God, the resurrection, salvation, the scripture, the ancient church, the seven sacraments, the Eucharist, Mary as the bearer of God, the Saints being honored, the icons, and life after death. Objectively, what we find when examining these ideas is that they are evolutions -- for better or worse -- of far older and universal spiritual and religious concepts. The prehistory of such ideas is usually dismissed with aggression or attempted pseudo intellectual "got yas," with a mix of fallacy and circular logic. But what if we were to argue that the prehistory confirms the importance of such tenants; even if it also proves that they are not unique, nor are they the only answer to the issue of theosis.*The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

Tamsen Fadal was 47 and anchoring the evening news when the first hot flash hit.She got off the set and lay down on the bathroom floor. No one had prepared her well for any of this. The answer, when it finally came, was a short note from her doctor in her patient portal with four words: "In menopause, any questions?"Tamsen Fadal is an Emmy Award-winning journalist, executive producer of the PBS documentary The M Factor and The M Factor 2, and New York Times bestselling author of How to Menopause. She spent thirty years in television news before turning to the thing nobody had explained to her.Tamsen and Mike get into what menopause actually is, how its symptoms can resemble anxiety or depression, and what changed after the 2002 hormone study.This is a conversation for men as much as for women. Every man is a partner, colleague, son, or father to someone moving through this. Tamsen's line is that men don't have to go through it, but they do have to understand it.Tamsen calls what comes after menopause “the next 30.” Her point is to decide what you want those years to look like, and start building toward them now.Enjoy the conversation.___________________________________________________Links & Resources:Tamsen Fadal's Website: tamsenfadal.comTamsen Fadal's Books: How to Menopause: Take Charge of Your Health, Reclaim Your Life, and Feel Even Better than Before, The New Single, Why Hasn't He Proposed?, Why Hasn't He Called?Tamsen Fadal's Documentaries: The M Factor: Shredding the Silence on Menopause and The (M) Factor 2: Before the Pause, both on PBSTamsen Fadal's Podcast: The Tamsen ShowSubscribe to our Youtube Channel for more conversations at the intersection of high performance, leadership, and wellbeing: https://www.youtube.com/c/FindingMasteryGet exclusive discounts and support our amazing sponsors!Go to: https://findingmastery.com/sponsors/Subscribe to the Finding Mastery newsletter for weekly high performance insights: https://www.findingmastery.com/newsletterDownload Dr. Mike's Morning Mindset Routine: findingmastery.com/morningmindsetFollow on YouTube, Instagram, LinkedIn, and XSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Most entrepreneurs treat networking as a numbers game, collecting contacts and hoping something sticks. Drawing from three decades of leadership experience, Kareen Mills helps leaders understand the human behaviors behind trust, reputation, and influence. With a background as a former bank VP and now a serial entrepreneur and angel investor, Kareen is the founder and CEO of Friendsgiving Live®, the world's largest Friendsgiving event for women. In this bonus episode, Kareen unpacks the psychology behind why some people get remembered, recommended, and referred while others get forgotten, and why more outreach only widens that gap. The biggest mistake founders make is assuming they just need more contacts, but there are three things every entrepreneur can do this week to more effectively leverage relationships into revenue.

Send us Fan MailEvery child deserves a safe place to call home. In this episode of Joey Pinz Discipline Conversations, Joey Pinz sits down with Jynelle Armstrong, Program Director at A Kid's Place of Tampa Bay, to discuss the life-changing work of providing a loving home for children entering foster care.Jynelle shares how a summer volunteer opportunity completely changed the direction of her life—from pursuing corporate business to dedicating her career to helping children heal from abuse, neglect, and abandonment. She explains why keeping siblings together is critical, how trauma-informed care transforms lives, and why A Kid's Place is redefining what residential foster care should look like.The conversation also explores leadership, psychology, resilience, travel, curiosity, discipline, and the importance of meeting every child where they are. One particularly moving story about a child who had never celebrated a birthday serves as a reminder that healing often begins with the smallest acts of love.Whether you're a parent, educator, nonprofit leader, foster parent, or simply someone who believes every child deserves hope, this episode offers meaningful insights into compassion, leadership, and creating environments where children can truly thrive.Top 3 Highlights❤️ Why keeping siblings together dramatically improves healing.
On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared and Jen sit down with clinical psychologist Dr. Roger McFillin for a challenging conversation about psychiatric diagnosis, mental health medications, and the medicalization of normal human struggle. Jen shares her experience of being prescribed Prozac at age 13 and spending decades living under diagnoses that shaped how she saw herself. Dr. McFillin explains why he has become an outspoken critic of his own profession and questions how conditions such as depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, and ADHD are diagnosed. They discuss the DSM, informed consent, psychiatric medications, emotional suppression, personal agency, and the powerful effect a diagnosis can have on identity. This conversation asks an important question: Are we helping people understand why they are struggling, or simply giving their struggles a name?Additional Information:Dr. Roger McFillin - Website + Podcast Dr. Roger McFillin Instagram Dr: Roger McFillin on X Dr. Roger McFillin Substack Center for Integrated Behavioral Health Jen's Story Episodes:264: Emotional Vitality423: Emotional Vitality: Jen's Story Part 2 - Rebalancing Mind and Body Through Supplementation438: Emotional Vitality: Jen's Story Part 3 - Weaning Off of Pharma457: Emotional Vitality: Jen's Story Part 4 - How Changing Your Mindset Can Change Your Life 505: Emotional Vitality: Jen's Story Part 5 - The Impact of Diet on Mental Health and Physical PainVisit the podcast website here: VitalityRadio.comYou can follow @vitalitynutritionbountiful and @vitalityradio on Instagram, or Vitality Radio and Vitality Nutrition on Facebook.

Two moms share what helped their daughters bounce back after a mistake.
Hey, it's Luci Dumas, and today's solo episode is a little different because I am sort of “journaling” about my experiences around the topic and looking for my own answers as I explore a topic that's been on my mind lately: motivation. Specifically, how we can find it, sustain it, and even question whether we always need it. Is it okay to just be sometimes? To live a simpler life without constantly striving for the next big thing? It's a big question, and one that I've been pondering deeply.As I thought about motivation, I kept coming back to Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs. You might remember it from a psychology class—it's that pyramid of five human needs. It got me wondering: can understanding these levels help us reignite our drive when it feels like the spark is fading?In this episode, I break down each level of Maslow's pyramid:The basics like food and shelter.Our need for safety and security.The desire for connection and belonging.Building self-esteem and feeling accomplished.And finally, the quest for self-actualization—living our best, most fulfilling life.I'll share some thoughts on how these needs might be influencing your motivation—or lack of it. Plus, we'll tackle that ever-present voice saying, “I should be doing more,” and decide if it's always true. Spoiler: sometimes it's okay to give yourself grace.Some of the ideas on how to become or stay motivated I explore are suggestions toIdentify the Blockages: Set Goals Aligned with Your Needs: Reflect and Reassess: Leverage Higher Levels for InspirationTune in for a mix of self-reflection, practical tips, and maybe even a spark to get you motivated—or at least, to help you feel okay with where you are right now.Connect with Photography Business Coach Luci Dumas: Website Email: luci@lucidumas.comInstagram FacebookYouTubeNew episodes drop every week — make sure to subscribe so you never miss an inspiring guest or a powerful solo episode designed to help you grow your photography business.

Pure Socialism can never work properly in human relationships because it violates to basic principles of human nature.First of all, it confuses who gets reinforced for what and by whom.Secondly, it locates power away from the individual and puts it in the hands of a third-party.Prosperous arrangements of humans dictate that these two principles must be honored. Socialism distorts these conditions and leads to lower productivity and innovation.We discuss these ideas and talk about differences between capitalism and socialism.Clip from: PragerUCapitalism vs. Socialism | 5 Minute VideoFollow Us:YouTubeXFacebookBlueskyAll audio & videos edited by: Jay Prescott Videography

AI adoption is often treated as a technology challenge: choose the right tools, train people to use them, and drive implementation. Dr. Gleb Tsipursky argues that this framing misses the harder problem. Unlike previous technology shifts, AI can trigger fear about job security, challenge professional identity, and create social stigma around how work gets done. For organizations trying to move from experimentation to meaningful business impact, understanding those human dynamics may matter as much as the technology itself.In this episode of Partnering Leadership, Gleb Tsipursky joins Mahan Tavakoli to discuss his new book, The Psychology of AI Adoption at Work: From Resistance to Results. Drawing on behavioral science research, thousands of survey responses, focus groups, and more than 100 consulting engagements, Gleb explains why traditional approaches to technology adoption often fall short with AI. The conversation examines the very different reasons employees resist, quietly embrace, or even hide their use of AI, and what those behaviors reveal about organizational culture.The discussion moves beyond adoption to a deeper question facing CEOs and senior executives: what happens when AI changes not only how quickly work gets done, but also how people understand the value they bring? Gleb explores professional identity, shadow AI, the critical role of middle managers, and why organizations may need to rethink where they begin their AI efforts. He also challenges the instinct to start by automating the highest-value activities, offering a counterintuitive approach designed to build trust, experimentation, and broader adoption.Mahan and Gleb also explore a growing leadership challenge: AI can dramatically increase output while making judgment more important. If AI increasingly generates reports, analysis, presentations, and other knowledge work, the differentiating human capability may shift from producing the first draft to evaluating whether the output is actually good. That raises important questions about how organizations develop early-career talent, redesign onboarding and apprenticeships, and build judgment when AI performs more of the work through which judgment was traditionally developed.Finally, the conversation looks ahead to an emerging workplace in which employees may increasingly manage AI agents rather than perform individual tasks themselves. Managers, in turn, may need to manage people who manage agents while coordinating increasingly complex human-machine workflows. The result is a conversation not simply about getting employees to use AI, but about the capabilities, culture, management practices, and continual learning organizations will need as AI becomes embedded in how work gets done.Actionable TakeawaysYou'll learn why AI adoption creates psychological challenges that traditional technology implementations often do not, and why treating AI like another CRM, ERP, or software rollout can lead organizations to misdiagnose resistance.Hear how fear, professional identity, and social stigma can produce very different forms of AI resistance, requiring more nuanced responses than simply mandating adoption or providing additional training.You'll discover why some employees may already be using AI extensively while deliberately hiding that use from colleagues and managers, and what this “shadow AI” behavior can cost organizations in shared learning and business impact.Hear why starting with the highest-value work may not always be the smartest path to AI adoption. Gleb explains why beginning with tasks employees actively dislike can create an unexpected path toward broader experimentation and acceptance.You'll learn why executive behavior matters in establishing the social norms around AI use, including how openly sharing successful AI applications can help shift AI from something employees conceal to something teams learn from together.Hear why middle managers may become one of the most important leverage points in AI adoption, translating executive intent into the everyday behaviors, experimentation, reinforcement, and learning that determine whether adoption actually takes hold.You'll explore why judgment may become more valuable as AI becomes better at producing work. The conversation examines the difference between generating an answer and knowing whether that answer is good enough to act on.You'll hear why AI creates a significant challenge for developing younger professionals, particularly when technology begins performing the work through which previous generations accumulated experience and learned to recognize quality.You'll learn how the role of employees and managers could change as AI agents become more capable, moving from personally executing individual tasks toward directing agents, evaluating their output, managing handoffs, and improving human-machine workflows.Hear why there may be no final state of “AI maturity.” Instead, organizations may need to build the capacity for continual learning as AI capabilities, workflows, and the skills required to manage them keep changing.Connect with Gleb TsipurskyDisaster Avoidance Experts WebsiteDr. Gleb Tsipursky LinkedInConnect with Mahan Tavakoli:Mahan Tavakoli Website Mahan Tavakoli on LinkedIn Partnering Leadership Website

In this episode, Kim Scott speaks with Angela Duckworth. Her first book Grit: The Power of Passion and Perseverance, is a #1 New York Times bestseller. Her second book is Situated: Find the People and Places That Bring Out Your Best. In this conversation, Kim interviews Angela about her new book, 'Situated.' They explore a deceptively simple three-box model that explains all of human behavior. Angela emphasizes the power of environment in shaping our thoughts and leading us to–or away from–the results we want. She and Kim discuss the limitations of willpower. Angela describes the two key ingredients of a good situation: challenge and support. Kim and Angela explore why it is important to seek managers and peers who both challenge and support us. They discuss the importance of feedback and why Ruinous Empathy is so damaging to both personal and professional growth. If you're looking for one thing you can control to get better situated, Angela shares some practical advice on curating your personal space to foster positive habits and growth. Guest Background: Prof. Angela Duckworth, PhD, is the Rosa Lee and Egbert Chang Professor at the University of Pennsylvania and faculty co-director of the Penn-Wharton Behavior Change for Good Initiative. Prior to her career in research, Angela founded an academic enrichment program for low-income children that was profiled as a Harvard Kennedy School case study and today serves hundreds of students each year. She has also been a McKinsey management consultant and a math and science teacher at public schools in New York City, San Francisco, and Philadelphia. Angela co-founded Character Lab, a nonprofit dedicated to advancing scientific insights that help children thrive. Angela completed her undergraduate degree in Advanced Studies Neurobiology at Harvard, graduating magna cum laude. With the support of a Marshall Scholarship, she completed an MSc with Distinction in Neuroscience from Oxford University.

From the Inside Out: With Rivkah Krinsky and Eda Schottenstein
Send us Fan MailFinding Meaning Through Viktor Frankl, Chabad Chassidus & TherapyIn this episode of From The Inside Out Podcast with Rivkah Krinsky and Eda Schottenstein, we interview Rabbi Daniel Schonbuch, a therapist and author of "Viktor Frankl and the Psychology of the Soul," about integrating CBT, marriage/family therapy, Viktor Frankl's logotherapy, and Chabad Chassidus. Schonbuch explains Frankl's core idea that humans are driven by meaning, not pleasure or power, and outlines three ways to find meaning: purposeful work, love/experience, and changing one's attitude when suffering can't be avoided. He describes creating TorahPsychology.org, holding Hakhel conferences inspired by the Rebbe's encouragement and a message sent to Frankl, and using a 30-day logotherapy workbook to reduce depression and anxiety. The conversation also covers shared meaning in marriage, rising divorce and estrangement, parenting tools (I=QR, connection/communication/reduced control), reflective listening, trauma and meaning, and incorporating Mitteler Rebbe teachings and “Tracht gut vet zein gut.”EPISODE SPONSORSYakira BellaYakira Bella is a modest, beautiful clothing brand with dresses that look and feel like designer pieces — elegant, well-made, and made to move with you all night — without the designer price tag.

What actually makes addiction treatment work?In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Tiffany Towers, Clinical Director at Seasons in Malibu, to go behind the scenes of what it takes to create and maintain a truly high-quality treatment program. We talk about how Seasons builds an incredibly varied team of clinicians, why different perspectives matter, and how they decide which therapeutic modalities are worth bringing into the program.We also get into some of the questions people often have about treatment but don't always get to ask: What role should Twelve Step play in recovery? Can the beach actually be therapeutic? What happens when someone relapses while they're in treatment? And what are clinicians seeing as new substances and patterns of use emerge?Dr. Towers also shares what she's seeing with the growing number of people coming into treatment for kratom detox, and how increasing regulations in California are changing the treatment landscape.This conversation isn't just for people considering rehab. It's for anyone interested in addiction, recovery, therapy, or becoming a better-informed participant in their own personal growth. The more we understand about how treatment decisions are made, the better equipped we are to ask questions, advocate for ourselves, and choose the approaches that actually make sense for us.Today's episode is brought to you by Seasons in Malibu. For over 18 years, Seasons has been a sanctuary for individuals seeking to reclaim their lives from addiction and mental health challenges. Our story began with a simple but profound vision: To create a luxurious sanctuary for individuals struggling with addiction or mental health issues, where they can receive the finest, evidence-based treatment in the world.Built on Compassion, Driven by ExcellenceWhat started as a small number of compassionate professionals has grown into one of the nation's most respected luxury treatment centers. But growth has never meant losing sight of what matters most—the individual engaging with our therapists, one-on-one, taking the courageous first step toward healing.From the beginning, we understood that truly transformative treatment requires more than clinical protocols. It demands a personalized approach, led by the most qualified professionals, in an environment that nurtures the whole person. That's why we've assembled a team where every primary therapist holds a Doctorate in Psychology - a distinction virtually unmatched in our field.

Empowered Relationship Podcast: Your Relationship Resource And Guide
Why are the very people we long to be closest to also the ones who hurt us the most? The paradox of intimacy is that our yearning for closeness often puts us at risk of pain, creating a delicate dance between connection and self-protection. As we draw near to those we love, our natural defenses can surface—sometimes in ways that inadvertently push each other away, leaving us feeling misunderstood or isolated even in our most important relationships. In this episode, the conversation dives into this very dilemma, exploring how our protective instincts can unintentionally create distance within our most cherished bonds. Listeners will discover why vulnerability feels so risky, how to recognize when their own "bodyguards" are at play, and practical paths to move from defensiveness back toward genuine connection. Through relatable stories and actionable guidance, the episode offers tools to nurture intimacy, strengthen repair, and foster lasting emotional safety in partnership. Dr. James Cordova, Professor of Psychology at Clark University, is the developer of The Relationship Checkup, a relationship healthcare intervention designed to be the relationship health equivalent of an annual physical checkup. Dr. Cordova is the founder and president of Arammu Inc., a university-based relationship healthcare company created to disseminate The Relationship Checkup and evidence-based relationship healthcare throughout both military and civilian populations. He is also the author of the recently published book, The Mindful Path to Intimacy. Episode Highlights 04:08 Porcupine nature and need to snuggle. 08:12 Learning to stay vulnerable and mitigate defenses. 10:05 Fight, flight, and the challenge of staying connected. 16:10 Finding humor and forgiveness in everyday annoyances. 17:09 Little hurts, unspoken needs, and the risk of disconnection. 23:39 Curiosity and compassion for your partner's inner world. 30:43 Understanding personal defense mechanisms. 31:29 Choosing vulnerability over protection. 37:14 The high cost of disconnection and misinterpretation. 38:52 Making relationship health proactive, not reactive. 43:55 Annual relationship checkups for lasting connection. Your Checklist of Actions to Take Identify Your Bodyguards: Become aware of your instinctive protective responses in relationship conflicts so you can notice when they're taking over. Acknowledge Vulnerability: Accept that vulnerability will always feel risky, but that authentic connection requires it. Communicate Softly When Hurt: When you feel hurt, express it in a clear and vulnerable way instead of becoming reactive or defensive. Seek Repair Quickly: If a rupture occurs, prioritize reaching out for repair—apologize, listen, and reconnect as soon as possible. Stay Curious About Your Partner: Practice ongoing curiosity and seek to understand your partner's experience and changing needs. Offer and Receive Forgiveness: When mistakes happen, forgive yourself and your partner, recognizing the common humanity in imperfection. Practice Regular Relationship Checkups: Engage in annual or periodic relationship assessments to stay proactive about relational health. Value Connection Over Pride: Make a conscious choice to value closeness and repair more than being "right" or protecting your ego.

You know that feeling when you try so hard to seem normal that you become a weirdo? Self-improvement works the exact same way. The more you chase happiness, the further it runs. The more validation you seek, the emptier you feel. This episode breaks down 7 painful paradoxes when we take on personal growth — psychological traps where trying harder makes things worse. We dig into King George VI's stutter, Carl Jung's shadow work, and why Steve Jobs getting fired was the best thing that happened to him. You'll learn why over-planning destroys resilience, why self-help books can quietly wreck your confidence, and why real change happens slower, yet more easily, than you think. Takeaways: Stop directly chasing happiness. Let it arrive as a byproduct of living with purpose. Build self-worth internally. External validation is a leaky bucket you can never fill. Accept your flaws before fixing them. Rejection breeds resistance, not change. CTA: Press play and learn why the hardest part of growth is knowing when to stop trying so hard.

"Every convenience has a cost. How much privacy, independence and freedom are you willing to give up in exchange for safety." In this episode of The Gun Experiment, we sit down with Matt Larsen, widely known for his work developing modern military combatives, to explore competing ideas of fairness, social mobility, privacy, and personal freedom. We discuss whether “fair” means equal outcomes or equal opportunity, how family values and social class shape a person's prospects, and why convenience can quietly come at the expense of independence. We also examine commercial surveillance, geofencing, license-plate readers, cashless businesses, and the possibility of a privately enforced social-credit system. The conversation then turns to violence and combat psychology. Matt Larsen explains why trained professionals often avoid unnecessary fights, how adrenaline affects performance, and why controlled aggression is different from posturing. He also breaks down the distinction between the Army Rangers and Special Forces before explaining the fundamentals of small-unit tactics. Finally, we look at drones and the modern battlefield, including how autonomous systems may increase surveillance, reshape infantry tactics, and make even small groups of people vulnerable targets.

Key Takeaways Matt Larsen argues that modern political disagreements often come from different definitions of fairness, with one side emphasizing equal outcomes and the other emphasizing opportunity and justice at 08:48. Social class is shaped by more than money. Family attitudes, work ethic, expectations, and values can determine whether someone can move into a different social environment at 13:07. Privacy is increasingly traded for convenience. Phones, commercial data, cameras, and geofencing can reveal movements and associations at 22:22. Matt Larsen says the surveillance state is unlikely to disappear, and that social-credit-style systems may emerge through private companies rather than direct government action at 31:30. A free society still has to balance safety, privacy, and convenience. The group debates whether people are willing to surrender freedom because modern life is easier at 38:36. Trained professionals understand that capability and violence are not the same thing. Matt Larsen explains why disciplined soldiers avoid unnecessary fights and keep themselves out of bad situations at 54:28. Combat performance depends heavily on managing fear, adrenaline, and energy. Poor preparation can cause a fighter to burn out early at 48:42. Matt Larsen explains that Rangers are primarily an elite raid force, while Special Forces, or Green Berets, specialize in training and supporting indigenous forces at 01:02:30. Small-unit tactics can be scaled from a few people to a larger military organization. The basic principle is coordinating fire and movement to create an advantage at 01:17:00. Drones may reduce the ability to move, evacuate casualties, or gather in groups on the battlefield. Even with advanced technology, people still have to occupy and control ground at 01:24:03. Guest Information Matt Larsen is a former Ranger and military combatives instructor. He discusses hand-to-hand combat training, warrior culture, small-unit tactics, military history, combat psychology, and the effects of drones and surveillance on modern warfare.

Dr. Gleb Tsipursky serves as the CEO of the future-of-work consultancy Disaster Avoidance Experts where he is an author who was dubbed the "Office Whisperer" by The New York Times and he helps tech-forward leaders stop overpaying for AI while boosting adoption and decreasing resistance. Mike Petrusky asks Dr. Gleb about his brand-new book, "The Psychology of AI Adoption at Work: From Resistance to Results", in which he explores how AI will fundamentally transform the workplace, applying his findings to facility managers and workplace strategists. He believes that FM leaders will need to evolve with increased integration of AI, IoT, and robotics, demanding new skills and adaptability as their role becomes that of "a managers of agents" overseeing both digital and physical assets. AI adoption faces unique psychological barriers beyond traditional change management challenges, specifically fear, identity threat, and shame. So, workplace professionals must start by addressing these emotions through supportive leadership, transparency, and the normalization of AI use. Leaders should focus on upskilling and preparing their teams for this transition, so Mike and Dr. Gleb offer the encouragement and inspiration you need to be a Workplace Innovator in your organization!

He's avoidant. She's projecting. Or maybe they're just being weird? Chloe sits down with The Psychology of Your 20s host Jemma Sbeg to talk about why uncertainty makes us obsessed, when psychoanalyzing turns into excuse-making, and why understanding someone doesn't mean you have to tolerate them. Plus: unavailable men, healthy love, and the suspiciously productive power of heartbreak.Follow the pod on IG and TikTok.Follow Chloe on IG and TikTok Follow Jemma on IG and Substack and listen to The Psychology of Your 20's
Why do some people seem naturally confident while others struggle with self-doubt—even when they're equally capable? Is confidence really the answer? Or is something much deeper happening beneath the surface? In this episode of Elevate Your Mind, Master Hypnotist and Subconscious Expert Rebecca Wiener McGregor explores the relationship between confidence, the subconscious mind, and the nervous system. After more than twenty-two years helping people transform subconscious patterns, Rebecca has observed something fascinating: Your nervous system isn't asking, "Am I confident?" It's asking, "Am I safe?" In this episode, you'll discover: • Why confidence often disappears under pressure • What happens in your body during interviews, presentations, difficult conversations, and moments of uncertainty • Why your nervous system responds before your conscious mind does • How safety and confidence are connected • Why confidence may be something that naturally grows rather than something you force If you've ever struggled with public speaking, leadership, dating, setting boundaries, asking for what you want, or simply believing in yourself, this conversation will give you a completely different way of understanding confidence. Asking for a Friend Have a question you've always wanted to ask about the subconscious mind, hypnosis, relationships, confidence, money, leadership, emotional healing, manifestation, habits—or simply being human? Send it to me. The questions that feel the most vulnerable are often the ones that help the most people. Your question may become a future episode of Elevate Your Mind.

What if AI could help us understand people better, rather than simply replacing what humans do?Episode summaryHow can we use AI to become better at persuasion, communication and understanding human behaviour? My guest on this episode is Roger Dooley, author of The Persuasion Engine, a new book exploring what happens when behavioural science meets rapidly evolving technology.Roger argues that tools once available only to large organisations — from behavioural science expertise to eye-tracking — are becoming accessible to almost anyone. We explore how AI can act as a personal “nudge unit”, helping us apply ideas from behavioural science, test communications and understand how different audiences might respond.We also discuss why simply asking an AI for an answer isn't enough, how to push LLMs beyond predictable responses, and why human judgement remains essential.Roger introduces his idea of a “60-second audit” — using AI to identify how communications might be misunderstood or backfire before we send them.Along the way, we talk about Cialdini, cognitive biases, invisible calls-to-action, board papers, cultural disasters, AI collaborators, rally driving, long division and why the best analogy for AI might be a power tool rather than a replacement for human thinking.Guest bioRoger Dooley is an author, speaker and behavioural science expert who has spent years exploring a deceptively simple question: why do people do what they do?His latest book, The Persuasion Engine (Wiley, 2026), looks at what happens when behavioural science meets AI — and how tools once available only to big companies with big budgets are now becoming accessible to almost anyone.Roger is also the author of Friction, named a Top 3 Management Book by PwC's strategy+business, and Brainfluence, which has been published in 11 languages.He brings an unusually practical perspective to the subject. Roger co-founded College Confidential and today he combines that entrepreneurial experience with behavioural science in his writing, speaking and teaching.He is a lecturer at McCombs Business School, a Forbes contributor and host of the Brainfluence podcast — and his work focuses on helping organisations understand people better, remove unnecessary friction and communicate in ways that actually work.AI-Generated Timestamped Summary00:00 — What if AI could be your behavioural scientist?05:00 — Cialdini, behavioural science and why people don't know why they decide10:00 — Eye-tracking, attention and what people actually notice15:00 — Making important information more visible20:00 — Board reports, visual hierarchy and designing for human attention25:00 — Better prompting and getting AI beyond obvious answers30:00 — What happens to human expertise when AI knows the theory?35:00 — Reactance, unintended consequences and communications that backfire40:00 — Cultural context, reputation and Roger's “60-second audit”45:00 — Using AI to become better at understanding other audiences50:00 — Roger's lifelong interest in technology and what comes next55:00 — Cognitive offloading, critical judgement and rally driving57:00 — Why AI is best thought of as a power toolLinks to topics discussedThe Persuasion Engine — Roger's latest book on how AI, behavioural science and neuromarketing tools are becoming accessible to organisations of all sizes.Roger's previous appearance on this podcast talking about Friction.RogerDooley.com — Roger's website, including his books, articles, speaking and latest work.Roger on LinkedIn — where Roger regularly shares ideas on behavioural science, persuasion, AI and marketing.The Brainfluence Podcast — Roger's podcast exploring behaviour, persuasion, neuroscience and business.Roger's episode on The Persuasion Engine — his own introduction to the ideas behind the book, including what he calls “Neuromarketing 2.0”.Friction — Roger's previous book, and the subject of his earlier appearance on The Human Risk Podcast.
Most people think the Apple Store succeeded because of great design. Ron Johnson says that's only half the story. The real secret was something much more personal. In this episode, Ron Johnson, the man who built the Apple Store alongside Steve Jobs and later became CEO of JCPenney, breaks down the invisible forces that shape how leaders make decisions. He introduces a concept called personal geography, the idea that every choice we make as a leader is filtered through our own lived experience, whether we realize it or not. Ron traces how his mother's simple belief that everyone deserves a place to belong quietly became the emotional blueprint behind the Genius Bar, the open floor plan, and the entire Apple retail experience. Ron also opens up about what he calls his biggest professional failure, transforming JCPenney, and why a genuinely good vision still collapsed. The conversation digs into why fast change without buy-in creates fear instead of momentum, why uncertainty registers in our brains as danger, and why the most successful leaders resist the urge to rush. This episode will change how you think about retail, leadership, and the quiet personal history that drives every decision you make.

Ever notice that the trip home often seems shorter than the trip there—even when the distance and travel time are exactly the same? It happens so often that researchers have given it a name: the “return trip effect.” And the explanation reveals something fascinating about how your brain experiences time. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC3179583 You're told to “take charge of your healthcare.” But how exactly are you supposed to do that when the doctor is the expert, appointments are short, and navigating the healthcare system can be frustrating and confusing? It turns out there is a lot you can do to get better care. Dr. Lucy McBride explains how to make better use of your doctor, ask the right questions, know when to push for answers, and become a more effective partner in your own healthcare. She is a primary care physician and author of Beyond the Prescription: A Doctor's Guide to Taking Charge of Your Health (https://amzn.to/4hAEoc3). Weather is doing things to you that you probably never realize. Sunshine, rain, heat, cold, wind and even changes in atmospheric pressure can affect how you think, feel, sleep and behave. Why are some people far more sensitive to weather than others? Can certain weather actually make us more aggressive or anxious? And why can a particular kind of day trigger such powerful memories and emotions? Dr. Trevor Harley has spent years studying the surprisingly intimate relationship between weather and the human mind. He is Emeritus Professor of Psychology at the University of Dundee and author of Head in the Clouds: How the Weather Affects Our Minds and Mental Health (https://amzn.to/4xN5L7v). Could you tell whether water is hot or cold just by listening to someone pour it? You probably can—even if you've never realized it. Hot and cold water actually sound different, and there is a fascinating reason why. https://www.thenakedscientists.com/articles/questions/why-does-hot-water-sound-different-cold-water-when-poured PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS MONARCH: Write your own money story with Monarch!
