Today a belated memorial tribute to the beloved Swiss soprano Edith Mathis, who died in Salzburg thirteen months ago, two days before her 87th birthday. One of the most highly regarded lyric sopranos of the 1960s and 1970s, Mathis began her career in the late fifties, retiring more than 40 years later in 2001. In between she, armed with a radiant, technically secure voice allied with an understated yet powerful musicianship, set the standard for performance of Baroque music, Mozart, and Lieder, in particular. She was the quintessential German soubrette, and as such the best of her generation in roles such as Ännchen in Der Freischütz and Marzelline in Fidelio. Because of her lack of pretention and mannerism, she might sometimes be somewhat undervalued, but her artistic achievement, especially considered as a whole, is equal to any comparable singer of the last century. I have scoured my extensive Mathis collection, as well as the corners of the internet, to bring you as full a musical portrait of Edith Mathis as possible, covering nearly the entirety of her career, and including works by several of her Swiss compatriot composers. Countermelody is the podcast devoted to the glory and the power of the human voice raised in song. Singer and vocal aficionado Daniel Gundlach explores great singers of the past and present focusing in particular on those who are less well-remembered today than they should be. Daniel's lifetime in music as a professional countertenor, pianist, vocal coach, voice teacher, and author yields an exciting array of anecdotes, impressions, and “inside stories.” At Countermelody's core is the celebration of great singers of all stripes, their instruments, and the connection they make to the words they sing.

In today's episode, we journey into the world of ancient legends to discover the stories of two extraordinary beings who stand beside the gods themselves.First, we meet Airavata, the majestic white elephant. Radiant as clouds and powerful as thunder, Airavata became the loyal mount of Indra, carrying him across the heavens and bringing rain to the earth. But how did this divine elephant earn such honor, and what trials shaped his destiny?In the second story, we uncover the tale of Nandikeswaran, the devoted guardian of Shiva. Born through devotion and blessed with immense strength and wisdom, Nandikeswaran became not only Shiva's mount but also the protector of sacred knowledge and the gatekeeper of Mount Kailasa. His story is one of unwavering faith, discipline, and divine grace.Two legends.Two loyal companions.Two powerful reminders that devotion and courage can lift even the humblest being into immortality.

Dr. Tom Curran shares insights from his 30+ years of experience as an executive coach and strategy consultant to help listeners answer the common questions for transformation: How do I get started? How do I move forward? What is at stake? Tom talks about principles, such as: ownership vs. being owned, “what is radiant is magnetic,” every conversation is an interview, and YOU are the message.

Send a textWhat if your body became a place of peace instead of pressure?In this powerful conversation, Dr. Victoria L. PonTell, nurse educator and author of 7 Keys to Unlocking Your Radiant Beauty, shares her journey from body shame and people pleasing to seeing her body as God's gift.She explains how control once felt like safety, how disordered patterns quietly formed, and how a decisive moment of surrender shifted her from rule driven living to spirit led stewardship.We explore her seven keys to radiant beauty, aligning thoughts with truth, nourishing with grace, moving with wisdom, reframing comparison, and honouring sexuality as sacred stewardship. This is not about dieting. It is about identity.Victoria also unpacks the science of stress and body awareness. When we live in fight or flight, clarity fades. When spirit leads, the mind aligns, and the body follows with peace.If you are ready to stop striving and start stewarding your body with faith and wisdom, this episode offers both insight and practical steps.Connect with Dr Victoria Lynn PonTellLinkedIn | Book on Amazon | Instagram @victorialynnpontellStay Connected with Maureen:Rewire Your Brain with neuroscience and Scripture Everyday - Daily Guide Book: Amazon.com | Amazon.co.uk | Mindsight StoreMindsight Women's Network | Mindsight Store | The Mindsight AcademyFree eBook: Christian Women's Leaders Guide on Decision-MakingArticles on BrainzBook A Consultation: https://calendly.com/maureen-77/30minSupport the showThank you for tuning in!

Send a textIn this final episode of our Radiant Grace series, we talk about what it feels like to sprint toward change while our souls lag behind. We've both lived the pressure that masquerades as discipline, only to find it backfires. Drawing from Scripture, coaching experience, and our own stories, we challenge destination thinking—the belief that once we're calmer, thinner, or finally “fixed,” life will settle. Instead, we explore a kinder way of becoming, rooted in renewed minds and our identity in Christ. “Be still and know” becomes a real, embodied practice that calms the nervous system and helps us hear God's voice. We look at Jesus' unhurried rhythms and the fruit of the Spirit in Galatians 5, remembering that peace is fruit—not a product. Fruit grows at its own pace, and rushing it only bruises the tree.We also name the fear that keeps us pushing—fear of never changing, disappointing God, or being judged—and how that fear tightens the body and triggers protection patterns like cravings, shutdown, and procrastination. Together, we offer practical shifts: creating small pauses before desperation hits, trading ten promises for one honest prayer, asking what God has actually called us to in this season, and building micro-sabbaths into our days. We reframe food as a signal rather than a failure and learn to create more doors to rest—through breath, quiet, gentle movement, and connection—so we're not relying on snacks to slow our racing minds. Grace leaves room for mistakes and growth; pressure demands perfection. If you've felt behind or tired of trying to outpace your own soul, we want you to hear this: you're not failing—you're becoming.Support the showLearn more about our Revelation Within Community: https://www.revelationwithin.org

Listening to an old podcast recently, some fellas played Hand of Doom by Black Sabbath on vinyl and spoke about it. I had to cold open this joint with the Ozman and blast a rock episode out of respect. Second, John Bonham on the 1's and 2's sounds so good on the 180 gram wax. Really clean and heavy. Very full tom sounds. Two of the best examples of that being displayed here in Whole Lotta Love and Moby Dick. In the editing process, I crushed the air drums during Linkin Park to the point that I'm supremely confident I'd be able to set the house on fire playing that song on a drum set. It's almost flower planting season and I'm fired up. I pulled weeds in the flower bed today and I'll most likely start the pre seeding process this week. Wooooow. I've devoted my afternoons and weekends lately to expanding my ever-growing Pokemon card collection. No new vinyl pickups lately but I plan to go to the record shop this week and I'm sure I'll leave with something. Itching for some new 45's. For those wondering, I counted today and just a sneak peek into my Pokemon collection. I currently own 39 various Charizards, 80 Pikachus varying in value of course. But still. I'm fired up about it. Completed one of my favorite sets, the Radiant set. It's small, not very difficult to do. But I like them and who cares. Thank you for being a super sick loyal listener of my radio installments.

Sunshine Witchski is known as The Pink-Haired Sober Witch and the founder of Sober Witch Life, where she supports witches and spiritual seekers in recovery to rediscover their magic, purpose, and abundance without alcohol. Through ritual, community, and personal sovereignty, she offers an alternative lens on sobriety rooted in empowerment rather than shame.In this episode, we explore sobriety beyond the traditional frameworks. We talk about the spiritual path to recovery, what it means to reinvent the 12-step model through a witch's lens, and why community — or “coven spaces” — are critical to sustainable change.We unpack the difference between sobriety as avoidance and sobriety as embodiment, and how ritual, discipline, and identity play a role in long-term transformation. Sunshine shares how dancing between spirituality, nihilism, hedonism, and sobriety ultimately led her back to herself.This episode is about sovereignty, courage, and the power of choosing differently — not because you “have to,” but because you're ready.Anyone who is sober curious, exploring alcohol-free living, drawn to spiritual recovery, or seeking deeper empowerment will gain a powerful new perspective on sobriety—and discover how choosing differently can unlock genuine freedom and renewed purpose.Follow Sunshine:Instagram https://www.instagram.com/soberwitchlife/Facebook https://www.facebook.com/jen.romanowski/Recovery Coven https://www.skool.com/sober-witch-life-1219/aboutWebsite https://soberwitch.life/Please remember to rate, review, and follow the show – and share with a friend!Check out our new Comedy Wellness Podcast: Anything But Mid, cohosted with Whitney Stropp:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/anything-but-mid/id1849386215https://www.youtube.com/@AnythingButMidFind Amy's affiliates and discount codes: https://amyedwards.info/affiliatepageAll links: ⁠⁠⁠amyedwards.info⁠⁠⁠Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠@realamyedwards⁠⁠⁠Fight For Her: ⁠⁠⁠fightforher.net⁠⁠⁠TikTok:⁠⁠⁠ @themagicbabe⁠⁠⁠YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠YouTube Channel⁠⁠⁠Podcast: ⁠⁠⁠The Amy Edwards Show Podcast⁠⁠⁠Free Course:⁠⁠⁠ The Ageless Mindset⁠⁠⁠Full Course: ⁠⁠⁠The Youthfulness Hack⁠⁠⁠Work with Amy:⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Book a Call⁠⁠⁠ Let's get you to your HAPPIEST and most RADIANT!

Send a text As the house settles and the evening grows quiet, do you ever notice how the inner critic often gets louder? In this 3rd part of our 4-part series, we talk about why nights can feel especially vulnerable—how nervous system fatigue lowers our defenses and makes it easier for food, scrolling, and self-judgment to take over. Instead of pushing harder with willpower, we practice turning toward God's steady voice to shape the atmosphere within us. Using the image of a parent calming a restless child, we reframe what it means to “take thoughts captive,” choosing discernment over force and asking which voice aligns with love, truth, and safety. With Zephaniah 3:17 and Romans 8:1 as anchors, we name condemnation as a false motivator that fuels shame and reactive patterns.From there, we rebuild our evenings with simple, embodied practices—compassionate questions that help the nervous system settle, an A-to-Z praise rhythm for bedtime, and a posture that treats rest as trust, grounded in Psalm 4:8. We share why trying to fix everything before sleep often backfires, how our words shape the inner environment that drives our choices, and how to choose a kinder authority when self-attack gets loud. We also introduce our updated Radiant Grace planner to help close the day without tallying or tracking. If nights have felt like a courtroom, this conversation offers comfort, clarity, and practical steps toward lasting peace.If this resonated with you, download the free Radiant Grace Planner at revelationwithin.org/planner.Support the showLearn more about our Revelation Within Community: https://www.revelationwithin.org

From the reading:Daily Practice: The Art of Stumbling GracefullyToday, when you inevitably fall short of your own expectations, whether you lose your temper, waste time, or struggle with your fast, do not turn away from God in shame. Instead, practice Immediate Return. Catch the moment of failure, pause, and present your weakness to God without excuses. Say, internally or aloud: "O Sustainer, this is my poverty. I bring my brokenness to Your generosity." Do not wallow in guilt. Imagine the laughter of the Prophet ﷺ, a laughter of expansive mercy, making your affair light. Let your mistake make you humble, soften your heart toward the mistakes of others, and then simply begin again.Journaling PromptThink of a time recently when you felt you deeply failed yourself or God. How did you react? Did you try to hide, or did you try to overcompensate? What would it look like to bring that exact failure directly to Al-Kareem (الكريم), asking Him to transform it into a moment of grace? Write down the honest words you would say.

Pearl Chiarenza, founder of Women's Successful Living in Tampa, Florida, spent years being "the strong one" who carried everything for everyone else. After 12 years of wearing the armor of all her titles (mom, wife, volunteer, coach), she found herself exhausted and disconnected. The devastating loss of her son made one thing painfully clear: existing is not the same as living. In this raw and honest conversation, Pearl shares her journey from people-pleasing burnout to creating a life coaching practice that helps women release guilt, set boundaries without apology, and move from exhaustion to clarity. Through her SHERO Method (Strong, Happy, Empowered, Radiant, Original), Pearl guides women in Central Florida and beyond to reconnect with themselves and say yes to the life they want to live. What We Discuss: The moment Pearl realized the armor she was wearing was actually weighing her down. How a simple rock became the catalyst for learning to say "no" without guilt. Why people-pleasing started in third grade and how it shows up in business todayThe surprising connection between makeup, authenticity, and showing up as your true self. Pearl's unique no-makeup retreat philosophy and why it creates powerful transformation. How to recognize when you're running on empty and what to do about it. The difference between aggressive, passive-aggressive, and assertive communication. Why business success means nothing if you're not taking care of yourselfHow to spot competitive behavior in networking groups that claim to be supportive. The power of group dynamics in retreat settings vs. one-on-one coachingPearl's Upcoming Events: Say Yes to You and Your Business Summit - May 14, 2026, Tampa Bay Area.

Send a textIn Part 2 of our Radiant Grace series, we talk about those late-night moments when the house is quiet, the day catches up with us, and the pantry feels like relief. We've both been there. Food soothes or distracts for a minute, but shame often follows and labels it failure. Instead of condemning ourselves, we choose to treat the reach for food as information, not indictment, and let grace guide us back to real rest. We unpack why cravings spike when we're tired, lonely, or overwhelmed, and we name the deeper longings underneath the “food noise”—to be loved, safe, seen, and held. With Scripture anchoring the conversation, we remember that God draws near to the brokenhearted, doesn't scold the weary, and welcomes us honestly as we are.From there, we share practical steps that help shift us from numbing to nurturing. We practice the five-word pause—“What do I need now, Lord?”—use a simple breath prayer when shame rises, and gently redirect our hearts toward gratitude and praise. We offer small experiments you can try tonight: check in before you snack, bring the longing to God first, reach for wise support, and then enjoy food as fuel and joy—not as a savior. If last night was hard, mercy meets us this morning and in every moment after. We're building new, sustainable reflexes rooted in God's presence—trading judgment for curiosity and learning to respond with radiant grace.Class starts December 10thhttps://teamlifeisgood.com/goSupport the showLearn more about our Revelation Within Community: https://www.revelationwithin.org

She's also the author of ALL IN: A Working Mom's Unapologetic Quest for a Juicy Life and the creator of the Return on Energy (ROE) framework.In this episode, we're flipping the script on productivity. We talk about why time management alone isn't enough—and why energy is the real asset we need to be paying attention to. Carrie breaks down the concept of Return on Energy, a practical way to evaluate where your energy is going, what it's costing you, and whether it's actually giving anything back.We dive into awareness as the first step, how to spot energy leaks (hello, doom scrolling and endless meetings), and why leadership isn't a title—it's influence. We also talk about burnout, decision fatigue, boundaries, and small shifts that can dramatically change how you feel in your day-to-day life.Timestamps:00:00:00 Intro00:02:05 Return on energy00:07:03 The VIBE framework00:10:31 How to see energy00:13:26 Leaking energy and how to stop it00:18:59 How energy affects leadership00:20:41 Ways to track your energy00:23:43 Carrie's background00:29:40 Company culture energy drain00:32:28 All In - the book 00:35:24 How to cope with burnout 00:41:17 Boundaries and non-negotiables00:45:44 Your values vs your energy00:48:54 The wheel of life exercise00:54:50 How to get unstuck from being just “fine”01:01:24 Final thoughts and outroIf you're feeling stretched thin, this episode dives deep into return on energy, energy management, and how to avoid burnout without sacrificing performance. Learn how to shift from traditional time management to smarter energy optimization, conduct a practical energy audit, and identify hidden energy leaks draining your focus and motivation. You'll discover how to set powerful boundaries and non-negotiables, prevent burnout, and build high performance habits that support long-term success. Using the VIBE framework (verify the feeling, impact, balance the cost, execute or eliminate), you'll learn how to make clearer choices, track your energy effectively, and create a version of “going all in” that aligns with your values.

Radiant Life Church Podcast

Send a textIn this first part of our Radiant Grace series, we explore what it means to practice peace in the bodies we live in right now. We share a tender conversation about trading self-critique for worship, replacing shame with gentleness, and learning to listen when our bodies speak quietly. Guided by Psalm 139 and Romans 12:1, we reflect on how design, dignity, and daily choices meet in our skin. We talk honestly about Christina's experience with chemo, surgery, and recovery, and how those realities reshaped our rhythms and deepened our awareness that the Holy Spirit dwells in us today—not in a future, polished version of ourselves. Isaiah 42:3 helps us see God's kindness toward our bruised places, while we consider how to honor limitations without surrendering to them.We invite you into a simple, repeatable practice: soften your shoulders, release your jaw, breathe a prayer, and say, “I'm listening.” Together, we ask what our bodies need—rest, movement, nourishment, or quiet—and respond with small acts of radiant grace. We also re-frame the mirror by naming what our bodies have done in love and service, letting gratitude renew our thinking. Anchored in Ephesians 2:10, we remember our callings are lived out through our bodies, and caring for them is part of the mission. If you're tired of striving for a someday body, we're choosing a kinder way to live and worship right now—and inviting you to join us.Support the showLearn more about our Revelation Within Community: https://www.revelationwithin.org

Universal Salvation, part 4 Welcome back to Gnostic Insights. I'm going to do my best to wrap up this review of David Bentley Hart's book, That All Shall Be Saved, Heaven, Hell, and Universal Salvation. And I hope you understand, particularly those of you who are Christians that are listening to this, that I do all of this in the name of the Father. It's not to tear down Christianity. It's to uphold the mission of the Messiah, which has been lost over the past several hundred years of Christianity. And so this talk of universal salvation is a necessary component of believing in the glory of God. Because universal salvation of all souls, not only all humans, but the dogs, the cats, the birds, the grasses, all living things, have to return to the Father, or else the Anointed loses power. The Father loses parts of himself. Okay, let's get back to David Bentley Hart. So we're going to run through these four meditations that are the body of his book. The first meditation is, Who is God? He says, The New Testament, to a great degree, consists in the eschatological interpretation of Hebrew Scripture's story of creation, finding in Christ as eternal Logos and risen Lord, the unifying term of beginning and end. There's no more magnificent meditation on this vision than Gregory of Nyssa's description of the progress of all persons towards union with God in the one pleroma, the one fullness of the whole Christ. All spiritual wills moving, to use this loving image, from outside the temple walls to the temple precincts, and finally beyond the ages into the very sanctuary of the glory as one. Okay, let me jump in here to say, do you notice that the New Testament words, when you use the correct translations, are the same as the translations in our Tripartite Tractate of the Nag Hammadi? Logos is the eternal spirit of humanity and the risen Lord. The Fullness is the one pleroma, the whole Christ. And in this statement, it's saying that all that is spiritual, which includes the spirits that reside within each of us, will all move as one into the pleroma of the Christ. That's who Christ is to us. He's the head of our pleroma. And when I speak of pleromas, I always picture that pyramidal shape, that hierarchical shape, and the capstone is the head. We 2nd order powers are children of the 1st order powers. The 3rd order powers are the Army of Christ that have come to redeem us. When Paul spoke of this, he was applying it literally to the temple in Jerusalem, where there were the walls of the temple, and most of the people were outside of the walls, and some of the people were in the temple precincts. And finally, the very sanctuary of the glory, where only the priests were allowed. These are the three parts that were mentioned, and these are archetypal of the movement of humanity, Hart is saying, from the outside of the pleroma of the Christ, into the pleroma of the Christ, and then into the very glory of God through the Christ. On page 90, Hart says, If one truly believes that traditional Christian language about God's goodness and the theological grammar to which it belongs are not empty, then the God of eternal retribution and pure sovereignty proclaimed by so much of Christian tradition is not and cannot possibly be the God of self-outpouring love revealed in Christ. If God is the good creator of all, he must also be the savior of all without fail, who brings to himself all he has made, including all rational wills, and only thus returns to himself in all that goes forth from him. And that's the end of the chapter, Who is God? And that pretty much states my basic belief on why everyone is going to heaven, because we all come from the Father, and therefore we all must return to the Father because the Father cannot be diminished in any way. And if he lost us, he'd be diminished. Do you see? The second meditation is, What is Judgment? And the subtitle is A Reflection on Biblical Eschatology. And eschatology, that's one of those big theological words that just means the end times, the end of time. On page 93, Hart says, There's a general sense among most Christians that the notion of an eternal hell is explicitly and unremittingly advanced in the New Testament. And yet, when we go looking for it in the actual pages of the text, it proves remarkably elusive. The whole idea is, for instance, entirely absent from the Pauline corpus as even the thinnest shadow of a hint, nor is it anywhere patently present in any of the other epistolary texts. There is one verse in the Gospels, Matthew 25-46 that, traditionally understood, offers what seems the strongest evidence for the idea, but then now Hart's going to explain how that can't be true. And then he says there are also perhaps a couple of verses from Revelation, and he says nothing's clear in Revelation, so he's not going to go there. But, What in fact the New Testament provides us with are a number of fragmentary and fantastic images that can be taken in any number of ways, arranged according to our prejudices and expectations, and declared literal or figural or hyperbolic as our desires dictate. It's why people can make the case for eternal damnation, but you can also make the case for not eternal damnation, because it's so metaphorical. On page 94, Hart says, Nowhere is there any description of a kingdom of perpetual cruelty presided over by Satan, as though he were some kind of Chthonian god. On the other hand, however, there are a remarkable number of passages in the New Testament, several of them from Paul's writings, that appear instead to promise a final salvation of all persons and all things, and in the most unqualified terms. How did some images become mere images in the general Christian imagination, while others became exact documentary portraits of some final reality? If one can be swayed simply by the brute force of arithmetic, it seems worth noting that, among the apparently most explicit statements on the last things, the universalist statements are by far the more numerous. And then he lists a number of verses from the New Testament that speak of universal salvation, over 20 of them at least, and I'll give you just a couple. Romans 5.18 says, So then, just as through one transgression came condemnation for all human beings, so also through one act of righteousness came a rectification of life for all human beings. And jumping in from the Gnostic sense, he doesn't say the fall of one human, he doesn't say through Adam, he says one transgression—and we would call that one transgression the Fall of Logos, the fall of the Aeon, which is a higher order being than we are. Or Corinthians 15.22 says, For just as in Adam all die, so also in the anointed Christ all will be given life. I would say where it says for just as in Adam all die, it's not because Adam ate the apple, it's that we humans who are outside of the Christ, we're outside of the walls of the temple, we are in the pleroma of Adam—we are in the pleroma of human beings. When you accept the anointed, then you move into the pleroma, or you nest up higher into the pleroma of the Christ. That would be the Gnostic way of saying that. Second Corinthians 5.14 says, For the love of the anointed constrains us, having reached this judgment, that one died on behalf of all, all then have died. And of course that one is the Anointed, and He died on behalf of everyone. Or even Romans 11:32, For God shut up everyone in obstinacy, so that he might show mercy to everyone. And there's a long discussion in the chapter about how God's chosen—the original elect, that being the Hebrew nation—has been obstinate about accepting Jesus of Nazareth as the Anointed. And so he's saying that everyone is shut up in obstinacy, that's the Hebrews, so that he might show mercy to everyone. And that is, they're temporarily set up in obstinacy so that the message of the Anointed can be preached far and wide, before death and after death, we Gnostics would say, and not be just constrained to only the Hebrews. That's why the Hebrews are set aside for the moment, so that those outside the temple walls can also come to Christ. And then there are 19 more verses after this, and he lists them all between pages 96 and page 102. And if you are a theological scholar or a concerned Christian that wants to know if this is heresy or not, I really suggest you buy the book, That All Shall Be Saved, by David Bentley Hart, and read it carefully from cover to cover. Jumping to page 116, Hart says, There are those metaphors used by Jesus that seem to imply that the punishment of the world to come will be of only limited duration. For example, “if remanded to prison, you shall most certainly not emerge until you pay the very last pittance.” Or, “the unmerciful slave is delivered to the torturers until he should repay everything he owes.” And Hart says it seems as if this until should be taken with some seriousness. Some wicked slaves, moreover, “will be beaten with many blows, while others will be beaten with few blows.” Hart says, of course, everyone will be “salted with fire.” This fire is explicitly that of the Gehenna. But salting here is an image of purification and preservation, for salt is good. Gehenna is the Valley of Hinnom from the Old Testament, and that is where, outside of the city of Jerusalem, the refuse was burned, and even carrion and bodies were burned. And that is why it is considered to be a hellish place. And it has become a metaphor in the time of Jesus for the purging fire, the Aeonian chastening for the good. Hart says we might even find some support for the purgatorial view of the Gehenna from the Greek of Matthew 25:46, which is the supposedly conclusive verse on the side of the Infernalist Orthodoxy, where the word used for the punishment of the last day is kolasis, which most properly refers to remedial chastisement, rather than timoria, which more properly refers to retributive justice. So, the fire of the judgment. What is judgment? The fire is the chastening fire, the fire of personal guilt and remorse over the sins one has done, that causes one to repent and turn to redemption. Hart says, It is not clear in any event that the fourth gospel, [and the fourth gospel, that's the gospel of John, Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John], it is not clear in any event that the fourth gospel foretells any “last judgment,” in the sense of a real additional judgment that accomplishes more than has already happened in Christ. To see His words as pointing toward and fulfilled within his own crucifixion and resurrection, wherein all things were judged and all things redeemed. The kingdom has indeed drawn very near, and even now is being revealed. The hour indeed has come. The judge who is judged in our place is also the resurrection and the life that has always already succeeded and exceeded the time of condemnation. All of heaven and of hell meet in those three days. . . Hell appears in the shadow of the cross as what has always already been conquered, as what Easter leaves in ruins, to which we may flee from the transfiguring light of God if we so wish, but where we can never finally come to rest, for being only a shadow, it provides nothing to cling to. And he attributes that concept of hell being only a shadow to Gregory of Nyssa, although we would attribute it to the Tripartite Tractate of the Nag Hammadi which came before Gregory of Nyssa. Hell exists so long as it exists only as the last terrible residue of a fallen creation's enmity to God, the lingering effects of a condition of slavery that God has conquered universally in Christ and will ultimately conquer individually in every soul. This age has passed away already, however long it lingers on its own aftermath, and thus in the Age to Come, [and that's capital A, Age, which we would interpret as the Aeons to Come, the Aeonian Pleroma to Come], and beyond all ages, all shall come to the kingdom prepared for them from before the foundation of the world. And that's the chapter, What is Judgment? The third meditation or chapter of Hart is called What is a Person? A Reflection on the Divine Image. It says over and over in the Bible that we are made in the image of God. Man is made in the image of God. That is the divine image. On page 131, Hart says, Christians down the centuries have excelled at converting the good tidings of God's love in Christ into something dreadful, irrational, and morally horrid. [And we covered that in depth in the previous three episodes, if you want to go back there.] On page 132, Hart says, I suspect that no figure in Christian history has suffered a greater injustice as a result of the desperate inventiveness of the Christian moral imagination than the Apostle Paul, since it was the violent misprision of his theology of grace, starting with the great Augustine, it grieves me to say, that gave rise to almost all of these grim distortions of the Gospel. Aboriginal guilt, predestination, (ante praevisa merita), the eternal damnation of unbaptized infants, the real existence of vessels of wrath, and so on. All of these odious and incoherent dogmatic motifs, so to speak, and others equally nasty, have been ascribed to Paul. And yet, each and every one of them, not only is incompatible with the guiding themes of Paul's proclamation of Christ's triumph and of God's purpose in election, but is something like their perfect inversion. Well, isn't that interesting? Because we already know that the archons represent the inversions of the Aeons of the Pleroma. And so, although Hart doesn't realize he's implying this, to say that what has come down to us in Christian tradition through Augustine is the perfect inversion of what Paul was actually saying about universal salvation, which means, by definition, that it's the demiurgic or the archonic version of salvation. Isn't that interesting? I mean, that is what I have been implying, that what has been taken to be Christian tradition for the last couple of thousand years is actually a diminishment of the power of Christ and the power and love of the Father. By saying that people can be lost and condemned to eternal torture, that is sacrilegious to me. That is the heresy. And that is what Hart is saying here. He goes on to say on page 133, This is all fairly odd, really. Paul's argument in those chapters is not difficult to follow. What preoccupies him from beginning to end is the agonizing mystery that the Messiah of Israel has come, and yet so few of the children of the house of Israel have accepted the fact, even while so many from outside the covenant have. And Paul wonders, how is the promised Messiah rejected by so many, yet so many outside the temple walls have accepted the Messiah? There are far more Christians than there are Jews at the moment. Why is that? Paul was wondering. Hart says, Paul's is not an abstract question regarding which individual human beings are the saved and which are the damned. In fact, by the end of the argument, the former category, [that is the saved], proves to be vastly larger than that of the elect or the called, while the latter category, [that is the damned], makes no appearance at all. Jumping down the page, he says, “so then what if,” so now he's going to go ahead and quote Paul here, Romans 9:19, Paul says, So then what if God should show his power by preserving vessels suitable only for wrath, keeping them solely for destruction, in order to provide an instructive counterpoint to the riches of the glory he lavishes on vessels prepared for mercy, whom he has called from among the Jews and the Gentiles alike. For as it happens, rather than offering a solution to the quandary in which he finds himself, Paul is simply restating that quandary in its bleakest possible form, at the very brink of despair. He does not stop there, however, because he knows that this cannot be the correct answer. It is so obviously preposterous, in fact, that a wholly different solution must be sought, one that makes sense and that will not require the surrender either of Paul's reason or of his confidence in God's righteousness. Hence, contrary to his own warnings, Paul does indeed continue to question God's justice, and he spends the next two chapters unambiguously rejecting the provisional answer, the vessels of wrath hypothesis, altogether, so as to reach a completely different and far more glorious conclusion—God blesses everyone. Romans 10: 11, 12. And by the way, in Gnostic gospel, we would say the law is actually the Demiurge's rules for human behavior, because our self-will makes us otherwise uncontrollable. Because to the Father above, the only law is love. When we act out of love, all else follows. Going on, Hart says, As for the believing remnant of Israel, [Romans 11:5], it turns out that they have been elected not as the limited number of the saved within Israel, but as the earnest through which all of Israel will be saved. They are waiting for the Anointed to come and take the place of the King of Israel, King of the Jews. King of the Jews is one of the titles of the Messiah. That means the capstone of their pleroma. You see? It's all of these pyramidal shapes that are first designed up there in the Fullness of God, the pleroma. What Paul is saying is that the Jews that are in the pleroma of Israel, it's their remnant that makes them holy. It's their remnant that is the spiritual part, the higher part, the called part, the elect part of the pleroma of the nation of the Hebrews. And it is through those elect that all of the Jews will be saved, ultimately. Hart says, For the time being, true, a part of Israel is hardened, but this will remain the case only until the ”full entirety” [that is the pleroma] of the Gentiles enter in. The unbelievers among the children of Israel may have been allowed to stumble, but God will never allow them to fall. Hart's just saying that Israel's reluctance or slowness to believing that Jesus is the Messiah is just slowing down the progress of history to give everyone else a chance to catch up to it. Quoting Hart again, We're in Romans now, 11:11. This then is the radiant answer dispelling the shadows of Paul's grim what if in the ninth chapter of Romans. It's clarion negative. It turns out that there is no final illustrative division between the vessels of wrath and vessels of mercy. That was a grotesque, all too human thought that can now be chased away for good. God's wisdom far surpasses ours, and his love can accomplish all that it intends. “He has bound everyone in disobedience so as to show mercy to everyone.” [That's Romans 11:32.] All are vessels of wrath precisely so that all may be made vessels of mercy. . . That Paul's great attempt to demonstrate that God's election is not some arbitrary act of predilective exclusion, but instead a providential means for bringing about the unrestricted inclusion of all persons, has been employed for centuries to advance what is quite literally the very teaching that he went to such great lengths explicitly to reject. . . Yet this is still not my principal point. I want to say something far more radical. I want to say that there is no way in which persons can be saved as persons except in and with all other persons. This may seem an exorbitant claim, but I regard it as no more than an acknowledgment of certain obvious truths about the fragility, dependency, and exigency of all that make us who and what we are. Oh, this is a very interesting portion. Okay, listen to this. Jumping to page 149. No soul is who or what it is in isolation, and no soul's sufferings can be ignored without the sufferings of a potentially limitless number of other souls being ignored as well. And so it seems if we allow the possibility that even so much as a single soul might slip away unmourned into everlasting misery, the ethos of heaven turns out to be “every soul for itself”—which is also, curiously enough, precisely the ethos of hell. But Christians are obliged, it seems clear, to take seriously the eschatological imagery of scripture. And there all talk of salvation involves the promise of a corporate beatitude, a kingdom of love and knowledge, a wedding feast, a city of the redeemed, the body of Christ, which means that the hope Christians cherish must in some way involve the preservation of whatever is deepest in and most essential to personality rather than a perfect escape from personality. But finite persons are not self-enclosed individual substances. They are dynamic events of relation to what is other than themselves. And then Hart summons up the idea of a single recurrent image, he says, That of a parent whose beloved child has grown into quite an evil person, but who remains a parent nevertheless, and therefore keeps and cherishes countless tender memories of the innocent and delightful being that has now become lost in the labyrinth of that damaged soul. Is all of that, those memories, those anxieties and delights, those feelings of desperate love, really to be consigned to the fire as just so much combustible chaff? Must it all be forgotten or willfully ignored for heaven to enter into that parent's soul? And if so, is this not the darkest tragedy ever composed? And is God not then a tragedian utterly merciless in his poetic omnipotence? Who or what is that being whose identity is no longer determined by its relation to that child? [Skipping to page 153] Personhood as such is not a condition possible for an isolated substance. It is an act, not a thing. And it is achieved only in and through a history of relations with others. We are finite beings in a state of becoming, and in us there is nothing that is not an action, dynamism, an emergence into a fuller or a retreat into a more impoverished existence. And so, as I said in my first meditation, we are those others who make us. Spiritual personality is not mere individuality, nor is personal love one of its merely accidental conditions or extrinsic circumstances. A person is first and foremost a limitless capacity, a place where the all shows itself with a special inflection. We exist as the place of the other, to borrow a phrase from Michel de Certeau. Certainly, this is the profoundest truth in the doctrine of resurrection. That we must rise from the dead to be saved is a claim not simply about resumed corporeality, whatever that might turn out to be, but more crucially, about the fully restored existence of the person as socially, communally, corporately constituted. Each person is a body within the body of humanity, which exists in its proper nature only as the body of Christ. Well, that's pretty neat. See, we are nested fractal hierarchies of the pleroma of the Fullness of God. And if you've been with me a while, you know what that long and complicated sentence means. Picture a pyramidal shape, picture every living part of your body as building up the pyramid, and your conscious self is the capstone of that pleroma that makes up your body. Now, you are then nested along with all other humans into the pleroma of humanity, the body of humanity, also called the body of Adam. Just the way our cells nest up into building us, we nest up into building the great body of humanity. And then, Hart is saying this body of humanity exists in its proper nature only as the body of Christ, because when we then nest up and make Christ the king of our pleroma, we are nested into the Fullness of Christ. And that is what the final salvation resting point is. When we all finally pass through the final judgment and nest up into Christ, then we're all nested up into the pleroma, we're all nested up into the Son. And there we are. And we will still have our lives the way the Fullness has their lives. They dream together as one of paradise. And that's where we're headed. Hart says, Our personhood must truly consist not only in the immediate love of those close at hand, but also in our disposition toward those whom we, by analogy, care for from afar. Or even in the abstract, for the most essential law of charity, of love, when it is truly active, is that it must inexorably grow beyond all immediately discernible boundaries in order to be fulfilled and to continue to be active. And all of those in whom each of us is implicated, and who are implicated in each of us, are themselves in turn implicated and intertwined in countless others, and on and on without limit. We belong of necessity to an indissoluble co-inherence of souls. And I think that down here on the physical level, on the material plane, the demiurgic version of that shared coherence of all souls together is quantum entanglement. That's the Demiurge's material version of how we are implicated and intertwined with every other soul. And now he goes on to say something that's very Gnostic. On the next page, Hart says, There may be within each of us—indeed there surely is—that divine spark, that divine light or spark of nous or spirit or atman that is the abiding presence of God in us, the place of radical sustaining divine imminence, nearer to me than my inmost parts. But that light is the one undifferentiated ground of our existence, not the particularity of our personal existence, in and with one another. Oh, hey, there it is. That's what I'm always saying. This one spark, that's what we call the big S Self. And the particularity of our personal existence is what we here at Gnostic Insights label as our Ego. So we are made up of the Self that we share with all others and that we share with the Son, but we are also our own individual existence. That's why we can't just blink out into nothingness and not be missed, because we have our particularity, and it has its own place in the hierarchy. Then Hart says, But then this is to say that either all persons must be saved or that none can be. [He says,] God could, of course, erase each of the elect as whoever they once were by shattering their memories and attachments like the gates of hell and then raise up some other being in each of their places, thus converting the will of each into an idiot bliss stripped of the loves that made him or her this person, associations and attachments and pity and tenderness and all the rest. If that were the case, only in hell could any of us possess something like a personal destiny, tormented perhaps by the memories of the loves we squandered or betrayed, but not deprived of them altogether. [Jumping to 157, he says], I am not I in myself alone, but only in all others. If then anyone is in hell, I too am partly in hell. . . For the whole substance of Christian faith is the conviction that another has already and decisively gone down into that abyss for us to set all the prisoners free, even from the chains of their own hatred and despair, and hence the love that has made all of us who we are and that will continue throughout eternity to do so, cannot ultimately be rejected by anyone. Amen. And that's the end of the third meditation. Now the fourth meditation, we just don't even have time to get to. It's called, What is Freedom? And if you want to hear the fourth meditation in depth, please text me in the comments and ask for more David Bentley Hart That All Shall Be Saved. But as for now, this treatise on what is freedom? I'll actually just jump to the last page and skip all of the explanations. The fourth meditation, What is Freedom? is all about free will. I guess I'll include it in some future episode about free will and just quote Hart extensively in that episode. But to close it out, Hart says, It would make no sense to suggest that God, who is by nature not only the source of being, but also the good and the true and the beautiful and everything else that makes spirits exist as rational beings, would truly be all in all if the consummation of all things were to eventuate merely in a kind of extrinsic divine supremacy over creation. But God is not a god, [or as we would say, the God Above All Gods is not the Demiurge, is how we would put it in Gnostic terms]. And his final victory, as described in scripture, will consist not merely in his assumption of perfect supremacy over all, but also in his ultimately being all in all. Could there then be a final state of things in which God is all in all, while yet there existed rational creatures whose inward worlds consisted in an eternal rejection of and rebellion against God as the sole and consuming and fulfilling end of the rational will's most essential nature? If this fictive and perverse interiority were to persist into eternity, would God's victory over every sphere of being really be complete? Or would that small miserable residual flicker of Promethean defiance remain forever as the one space in creation from which God has been successfully expelled? Surely it would, so it too must pass away. All right, that ends this long episode, because I was trying to wrap up the entire book, which I almost did. Write to me, tell me what you think of this sort of thing. I'd especially like to hear from people who used to be Christians, or who were raised in the church, and who fell away from the church because of some of these very problems and conundrums that we've been talking about for the last four episodes.

Melissa Feick is a multidimensional trance channel, spiritual teacher, and the creator of the Quantum Akashic Records methodology through her Spiritual Expansion Academy. She's also the host of the Spiritual Expansion & Ascension™ Podcast and the author of A Radical Approach to the Akashic Records: Master Your Life and Raise Your Vibration and Quantum Akashic Records Manifesting: Unlocking the Spiritual Keys to Wealth, Success, and Limitless Growth.In this episode, Melissa and I take the Akashic Records out of the abstract and into lived experience. We talk about what the Akashic Records actually are, how the quantum records differ from traditional interpretations, and why accessing higher consciousness isn't about going somewhere—it's about shifting perspective right here, right now.We explore timelines, dimensions, trauma held in the body, subconscious programming, and why clearing “thought forms” is essential for alignment. Melissa explains how fear, ego, and spiritual bypassing block access to wisdom—and how heart-centered awareness is the true navigation system.This is a grounded, expansive conversation about consciousness, healing, and what it means to evolve while still fully living a human life. If you've ever been curious about the Akashic Records but wanted an entry point that feels accessible, practical, and embodied, this episode is for you.Timestamps:00:00:00 Intro00:01:36 Melissa Feick, Quantum Akashic Teacher and Author00:02:50 What are the Akashic records?00:13:40 Clearing patterns and frequencies00:20:49 Time, timelines, dimensions and Akashic records00:30:06 UFOs and aliens00:34:06 Using telepathy to communicate00:36:14 How to access the Akashic records?00:40:00 Thought forms and belief systems00:42:56 Fear, the ego and control00:50:32 Spiritual ego and bypassing00:56:51 Alignment with your mission00:57:53 The Ascension Council01:02:13 What is reality?01:04:27 Melissa's daily practices01:13:59 Final thoughts and outroFollow Melissa and learn more and get her books:https://melissafeick.com/https://instagram.com/melissafeickhttps://www.youtube.com/@MelissaFeick33Books:https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FRNJY519?binding=kindle_edition&ref=dbs_dp_rwt_sb_pc_tkinPlease remember to rate, review, and follow the show – and share with a friend!Check out our new Comedy Wellness Podcast: Anything But Mid, cohosted with Whitney Stropp:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/anything-but-mid/id1849386215https://www.youtube.com/@AnythingButMidFind Amy's affiliates and discount codes: https://amyedwards.info/affiliatepageSky Rock Sedona: https://www.skyrocksedona.com/20% Discount Link:https://www.marriott.com/event-reservations/reservation-link.mi?id=1759866624184&key=CORP&app=resvlinkAll links: ⁠⁠⁠amyedwards.info⁠⁠⁠Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠@realamyedwards⁠⁠⁠Fight For Her: ⁠⁠⁠fightforher.net⁠⁠⁠TikTok:⁠⁠⁠ @themagicbabe⁠⁠⁠YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠YouTube Channel⁠⁠⁠Podcast: ⁠⁠⁠The Amy Edwards Show Podcast⁠⁠⁠Free Course:⁠⁠⁠ The Ageless Mindset⁠⁠⁠Full Course: ⁠⁠⁠The Youthfulness Hack⁠⁠⁠Work with Amy:⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Book a Call⁠⁠⁠ Let's get you to your HAPPIEST and most RADIANT!

Under this luminous Full Moon in Leo on February 1st, we're invited to return to a deeper, truer experience of self-love — not as something we earn or perform, but as something we emanate.This episode explores love as a living, embodied frequency rather than an act of self-sacrifice. With Venus traveling through Aquarius, a powerful reframe comes online:My love is liberation.Together, Leo and Aquarius remind us that joy is not the reward for giving — it is the source from which authentic love flows.In this episode, we explore:How so many women were conditioned to equate love with depletionWhy midlife often marks a sacred turning point where over-giving no longer worksThe heart and breasts as powerful, energetic centers of embodied loveWhy eros and pleasure are essential nutrients for a radiant, spacious heartHow ancient priestess wisdom honored sensuality as sacred powerA gentle, fully PG Tantric breast and heart meditation to reconnect you to your inner sourceWhen eros, heart, and pleasure are integrated, love becomes expansive rather than draining — a natural offering rather than a sacrifice.This Full Moon is not asking you to shine harder. It's asking you to shine freer.

Ben Brown is a nutrition and fitness coach, metabolic health expert, and the host of Smart Nutrition Made Simple. He's the founder of Body Systems, where he works with high-performing men and women—especially over 40—to build strength, energy, and confidence through a science-based, real-world approach to health.In this episode, Ben and I unpack one of the most misunderstood ideas in fitness: exercise is not a great weight loss tool. We talk about why so many people are working out harder than ever but still feeling stuck, exhausted, and frustrated—and what actually moves the needle instead.We dive into metabolic adaptation, immune suppression from overtraining, why walking and strength training are the real “cheat codes,” and how nutrition—not more workouts—is the foundation for sustainable body composition. Ben also breaks down why perfectionism backfires, how to stop the all-or-nothing cycle, and how to build what he calls a personal operating system for health—one that fits real life.If you're heading into a new year wanting to feel stronger, more energized, and more at home in your body—without burning yourself out—this conversation will help you reset your approach in a way that actually lasts.30-day reset: https://bodysystems.com/30-Day-Reset/Follow Ben and learn more:Website: https://bodysystems.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/bodysystemscoaching/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@bodysystemscoachingPodcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-smart-nutrition-made-simple-show-with-ben-brown/id1244912234Please remember to rate, review, and follow the show – and share with a friend!Check out our new Comedy Wellness Podcast: Anything But Mid, cohosted with Whitney Stropp:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/anything-but-mid/id1849386215https://www.youtube.com/@AnythingButMidFind Amy's affiliates and discount codes: https://amyedwards.info/affiliatepageSky Rock Sedona: https://www.skyrocksedona.com/20% Discount Link:https://www.marriott.com/event-reservations/reservation-link.mi?id=1759866624184&key=CORP&app=resvlinkAll links: ⁠⁠⁠amyedwards.info⁠⁠⁠Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠@realamyedwards⁠⁠⁠Fight For Her: ⁠⁠⁠fightforher.net⁠⁠⁠TikTok:⁠⁠⁠ @themagicbabe⁠⁠⁠YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠YouTube Channel⁠⁠⁠Podcast: ⁠⁠⁠The Amy Edwards Show Podcast⁠⁠⁠Free Course:⁠⁠⁠ The Ageless Mindset⁠⁠⁠Full Course: ⁠⁠⁠The Youthfulness Hack⁠⁠⁠Work with Amy:⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Book a Call⁠⁠⁠ Let's get you to your HAPPIEST and most RADIANT!

Bijou Finney, also known as Mushroom Mamasita, is a Medicine Woman, Integration Alchemist, and Retreat Creatrix whose work lives at the intersection of plant medicine education, psychosomatic healing, and visionary life design. She works with conscious entrepreneurs, couples, and women who are ready to come alive, helping them clear blocks across pleasure, purpose, prosperity, persona, and power through somatic practices, plant-based wisdom, and therapeutic coaching.In this episode, Bijou and I go deep into a side of authenticity that doesn't get talked about enough. Not the curated, Instagram-friendly version—but the real, lived, sometimes uncomfortable experience of actually being yourself. We explore why authenticity can trigger resistance in others, why being honest often costs you approval, and how self-love isn't always soft, but rather, it's often brave.We talk about archetypes, nervous system responses, identity shedding, and what happens when you stop performing who you think you're supposed to be. This conversation is raw, grounded, and incredibly timely, especially if you're feeling a pull toward truth, clarity, and aligned action in this next chapter.This episode is for anyone who's done pretending, done shrinking, and ready to live from a deeper place of integrity, even when it's messy.Follow Bijou and learn more:https://www.mushroommamasita.com/https://www.instagram.com/mushroommamasitahttps://creators.spotify.com/pod/profile/bijoulea-finney/episodes/Please remember to rate, review, and follow the show – and share with a friend!Check out our new Comedy Wellness Podcast: Anything But Mid, cohosted with Whitney Stropp:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/anything-but-mid/id1849386215https://www.youtube.com/@AnythingButMidFind Amy's affiliates and discount codes: https://amyedwards.info/affiliatepageSky Rock Sedona: https://www.skyrocksedona.com/20% Discount Link:https://www.marriott.com/event-reservations/reservation-link.mi?id=1759866624184&key=CORP&app=resvlinkAll links: ⁠⁠⁠amyedwards.info⁠⁠⁠Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠@realamyedwards⁠⁠⁠Fight For Her: ⁠⁠⁠fightforher.net⁠⁠⁠TikTok:⁠⁠⁠ @themagicbabe⁠⁠⁠YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠YouTube Channel⁠⁠⁠Podcast: ⁠⁠⁠The Amy Edwards Show Podcast⁠⁠⁠Free Course:⁠⁠⁠ The Ageless Mindset⁠⁠⁠Full Course: ⁠⁠⁠The Youthfulness Hack⁠⁠⁠Work with Amy:⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Book a Call⁠⁠⁠ Let's get you to your HAPPIEST and most RADIANT!

Shalin Shah is the CEO of Marius Pharmaceuticals and widely known as The Metabolic CEO. He's a leading voice in metabolic health and hormone therapy innovation, and one of the strongest advocates working to destigmatize testosterone for both men and women.In this episode, we go deep into what's really happening with testosterone today — why levels are declining across the population, why this is not just a “male” issue, and why testosterone is foundational to metabolic health, longevity, mental health, bone density, and quality of life. Shalin breaks down complex science in a way that's practical and empowering, and explains why testosterone deficiency is being massively underdiagnosed and undertreated.We talk about environmental toxins, sleep disruption, stress, lifestyle, and the long-term consequences of ignoring low testosterone — including cardiovascular disease, diabetes, depression, frailty, and increased all-cause mortality. We also explore the future of hormone therapy, why testing should be standard, and how innovation like oral testosterone could change access and outcomes for millions of people.This conversation is informative, eye-opening, and honestly a bit of a wake-up call — especially for anyone in midlife who wants to age strong, think clearly, and feel energized again.What we cover:Why testosterone levels are declining in men and womenTestosterone as a metabolic health marker, not a lifestyle drugThe role of sleep, stress, toxins, and modern lifeWhy fatigue, brain fog, depression, and low motivation are often hormonalThe truth about testosterone myths and stigmaWhy testing matters — and why baselines should start earlyThe difference between “normal” and “optimal” hormone levelsOral vs topical vs injectable testosteroneWhy muscle, bone health, and longevity are directly tied to hormonesWhat's changing at the FDA — and why this moment mattersPanel: https://www.fda.gov/patients/fda-expert-panels/fda-expert-panel-testosterone-replacement-therapy-men-12102025?Comments: https://www.regulations.gov/document/FDA-2025-N-6743-0001/commentwww.kyzatrex.comhttps://www.instagram.com/themetabolicceo/Please remember to rate, review, and follow the show – and share with a friend!Check out our new Comedy Wellness Podcast: Anything But Mid, cohosted with Whitney Stropp:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/anything-but-mid/id1849386215https://www.youtube.com/@AnythingButMidFind Amy's affiliates and discount codes: https://amyedwards.info/affiliatepageSky Rock Sedona: https://www.skyrocksedona.com/20% Discount Link:https://www.marriott.com/event-reservations/reservation-link.mi?id=1759866624184&key=CORP&app=resvlinkAll links: ⁠⁠⁠amyedwards.info⁠⁠⁠Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠@realamyedwards⁠⁠⁠Fight For Her: ⁠⁠⁠fightforher.net⁠⁠⁠TikTok:⁠⁠⁠ @themagicbabe⁠⁠⁠YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠YouTube Channel⁠⁠⁠Podcast: ⁠⁠⁠The Amy Edwards Show Podcast⁠⁠⁠Free Course:⁠⁠⁠ The Ageless Mindset⁠⁠⁠Full Course: ⁠⁠⁠The Youthfulness Hack⁠⁠⁠Work with Amy:⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Book a Call⁠⁠⁠ Let's get you to your HAPPIEST and most RADIANT!
