What if cancer isn't just a disease… but a split personality inside your own body? In this episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Dr. Michael Levin (Professor of Biology at Tufts University, Director of the Allen Discovery Center) drops paradigm-shattering insights that could redefine medicine, consciousness, intelligence...and what it even means to be human. He explains why he calls cancer “dissociative identity disorder of the body” — a breakdown in the body's bioelectrical network — and how this could open the door to treating cancer without drugs or chemotherapy, why “mind blindness” prevents us from recognizing nonhuman intelligence, and how “human” might be defined in a future of tech implants and biological augmentation. Dr. Levin also breaks down: - What does a body think about before there is a brain? - Can we regrow limbs in our lifetime? - Are we closer than we think to communicating with our organs via an app? - What flatworms reveal about how trauma and memory are imprinted in tissue, and whether we might one day overwrite trauma itself - What nonhuman intelligence could actually look like - How you might play tic-tac-toe with an alien - Real dangers of anthropomorphizing AI Dr. Levin also tackles some of humanity's biggest existential questions: - Are we defining consciousness all wrong? - How can ancient traditions and modern biophysics coexist? - Why compassion may be the most advanced technology we have From developmental biophysics to computer science to cognitive science, this conversation explores how intelligence may be woven into life itself — from cells to organs to entire bodies. If what he's saying is right… Medicine will change. AI debates will change. And our understanding of ourselves will change. You will never look at your body the same way again!

Keep winning! Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Todd Kroupa A former firefighter turned top-producing real estate agent in Georgia. Todd explains his journey from a physically demanding fire department career to becoming a highly successful real estate broker, team leader, and luxury/equestrian property specialist. The conversation walks through: His transition from the fire service to real estate Opening and managing a 400‑agent office in Florida Relocating to Georgia and re-establishing his business How he advises both first-time homebuyers and experienced sellers Emotional decision-making in buying and selling Inspections, deal-breakers, and buyer/seller behavior Multi-generational housing trends post‑COVID Why real estate remains a wealth-building tool Advice for navigating neighborhoods, schools, and due diligence His eventual ranking as #1 single agent for Berkshire Hathaway in Georgia (2024–2025) Todd emphasizes integrity, long-term relationships, and guiding clients toward the right house — not just closing a deal. Purpose of the Interview The purpose of Todd Kroupa’s appearance is to: Share a motivational career-change story — moving from firefighter to top real estate agent. Educate listeners on the real estate process — including buying, selling, inspections, and market strategy. Give practical tips for first-time homebuyers, families, and multi-generational households. Promote best practices for choosing neighborhoods, navigating emotion in home buying, and avoiding pitfalls. Highlight Todd’s success and position him as a trusted resource for Georgia real estate clients. Key Takeaways 1. Career Transition & Motivation Todd became a firefighter in 1992, retired in 2014, and began real estate in 2002. Real estate appealed to him because it allowed him to continue helping people without the physical strain. He built and managed a 400-agent office before returning to working directly with clients — his true passion. 2. Balancing Firefighting and Real Estate He often worked both jobs full-time, with limited days off. Eventually, maintaining both became impossible: “I can’t do this anymore,” he told his wife. 3. Buyer Advice Buyers make decisions emotionally first, then logically. Within the first 3–5 minutes in a home, buyers often know if they like it. Lighting, paint color, home condition, and layout heavily influence emotional response. First-time buyers need extra guidance — like “teaching someone to drive for the first time.” 4. Seller Advice Selling isn’t just about market timing — presentation matters. Neutral paint colors and bright white lighting help increase buyer appeal. Every showing is won or lost in the first few minutes. 5. Inspections Matter — and Are Deal Breakers Top inspection walk‑aways: Mold Foundation issues Roof problemsTodd stresses that if a buyer is uncomfortable before closing, “you won’t be comfortable after you close.” 6. Emotion vs. Logic Many buyers get emotionally attached and ignore red flags. Todd’s rule: commissions should never drive decisions. 7. Multi-Generational Living Is Rising Driven by COVID, high child-care costs, rising home prices. Families are choosing: ADUs (Accessory Dwelling Units) “In-law suites” Larger family compounds 8. Real Estate as a Wealth Builder Unlike stock investments, real estate allows you to: Control, improve, alter, and live in the asset. Tax advantages like 1031 exchanges and mortgage deductions compound long-term value. 9. Don’t Buy the Most Expensive House in the Neighborhood Surrounding homes cap your resale value. You may have to wait years for nearby homes to “catch up.” 10. Neighborhood Due Diligence Realtors must avoid discrimination (Fair Housing Act). Buyers should: Visit neighborhoods at night and on weekends Speak with neighbors Review school ratings and county resources Notable Quotes (from the transcript) Career & Purpose “I love helping people. That’s why I became a fireman. Real estate was another way to help people.” “I wasn’t quite sure I wanted to manage long term… my heart was with clients.” Ethics & Commission “Commissions should never be above the people.” “If you’re focused on commissions, you need to pick a different industry.” Emotions in Home Buying “Buyers think they’re looking logically, but they’re looking emotionally first.” “Within the first 3–5 minutes, they already know if they like the home.” Inspections “If you’re not comfortable with the property now, you won’t be comfortable after you close.” Neighborhood Choice “Focus on the house, but look at the neighborhood — you can’t change your neighbors.” Wealth Building “With stocks you can’t control it, improve it, or live in it. With a home, you can.” Success & Determination “Someone told me when I moved to Georgia I wasn’t going to make it. Now I’m the number one salesperson in Georgia.” #SHMS #STRAW #BESTSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

If you're feeling stuck or like you've plateaued in your personal growth, the breakthrough you're looking for likely won't come from just trying harder with the same strategies.  Real transformation happens when we do the inner work most of us avoid because it forces us to confront the parts of ourselves we've been resisting. And today's guest has dedicated his life to helping people do exactly that and awaken their highest self. Danny Morel is a spiritual teacher and global thought leader in personal transformation. He's the host of The Higher Self podcast and the creator of the Awaken Your Highest Self live experiences, where he helps people from all over the world break free from old identities and step into real healing. And if attending a live event feels out of reach, Danny has distilled his signature framework into his new book, Awaken Your Highest Self, available for pre-order now! In our conversation, Danny breaks down his three-part framework and explains why awakening starts with questioning everything. You'll also learn why healing requires reclaiming your power from the stories you've been living in, how forgiveness can become the doorway to peace and freedom, and how plant medicine—including ayahuasca—can serve as a powerful catalyst for deeper healing and self-discovery.

What if cancer isn't just a disease… but a split personality inside your own body? In this episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Dr. Michael Levin (Professor of Biology at Tufts University, Director of the Allen Discovery Center) drops paradigm-shattering insights that could redefine medicine, consciousness, intelligence...and what it even means to be human. He explains why he calls cancer “dissociative identity disorder of the body” — a breakdown in the body's bioelectrical network — and how this could open the door to treating cancer without drugs or chemotherapy, why “mind blindness” prevents us from recognizing nonhuman intelligence, and how “human” might be defined in a future of tech implants and biological augmentation. Dr. Levin also breaks down: - What does a body think about before there is a brain? - Can we regrow limbs in our lifetime? - Are we closer than we think to communicating with our organs via an app? - What flatworms reveal about how trauma and memory are imprinted in tissue, and whether we might one day overwrite trauma itself - What nonhuman intelligence could actually look like - How you might play tic-tac-toe with an alien - Real dangers of anthropomorphizing AI Dr. Levin also tackles some of humanity's biggest existential questions: - Are we defining consciousness all wrong? - How can ancient traditions and modern biophysics coexist? - Why compassion may be the most advanced technology we have From developmental biophysics to computer science to cognitive science, this conversation explores how intelligence may be woven into life itself — from cells to organs to entire bodies.

Episode 3485: Jackie Beck explains that what most people call motivation is actually short-lived inspiration, while real motivation is the deeper reason behind why you want change. By clearly defining how life will improve, less stress, better sleep, stronger relationships, you can stay committed even when excitement fades. Focusing on that deeper purpose helps you persist through setbacks and permanently change your financial habits. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.jackiebeck.com/the-secret-to-staying-motivated-when-getting-out-of-debt/ Quotes to ponder: “People often say that motivation doesn't last. Well, neither does bathing, that's why we recommend it daily.” “Real motivation does last, because your motivation is the reason behind why you're doing something.” “You don't have to feel excited and inspired all the time. You just have to keep moving forward and doing the work, while you keep your reason in sight.” Episode references: Zig Ziglar: https://www.ziglar.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Most people think they're broken when life slows down. They're not. When momentum disappears, and everything feels like a grind, it's not a lack of discipline or drive — it's misalignment. I've spent 26 years watching what actually works, and real momentum isn't something you force. It emerges when the conditions of your life line up and stay that way. Today I'm sharing the philosophy of inevitable momentum — what it means, why friction is likely holding you back right now, and the simple cycle that keeps successful people moving forward. Featured Story I've been building this philosophy for about 26 or 27 years. Early on, I said life begins when you move. That was real, but it was tactical. Then I started noticing something much bigger happening. When people got genuinely excited about what they were doing, motivation became automatic. And when motivation became automatic, momentum wasn't just possible — it was inevitable. I started calling it inevitable momentum, and I've watched it play out again and again with clients. When life aligns, people don't just inch forward. They move with real clarity, energy, and speed. You can actually see it happen. Important Points Momentum isn't something you force — it emerges when your life's conditions are properly aligned and stay that way. Feeling stuck isn't a personal failure. It's a signal that something has quietly drifted out of alignment in your life. Force will never fix a momentum problem — but clarity will. Seeing what's actually off is always the first real step. Memorable Quotes When awareness leads to alignment and alignment leads to consistent daily movement, momentum becomes inevitable. You're not broken, and you haven't lost your drive. Something in your life has just quietly shifted out of alignment. Willpower never works long-term. Real momentum is free will — it shows up naturally when conditions are right. Scott's Three-Step Approach Start with awareness — get honest about what's draining your energy and where friction is showing up right now. Once you see it clearly, align your daily actions with your values and where you actually are in life right now. Take the next honest step — not perfect, just correct — and let consistent movement build naturally into momentum.

Truth Be Told with Booker Scott – Healthcare systems fail vulnerable people when silence replaces honesty and institutions avoid accountability. Families navigate unanswered questions, patients carry hidden wounds, and communities struggle to respond. Real healing begins locally through compassion, informed consent, faith communities, and neighbors who show up, speak truth, and restore dignity where large systems fall short...

Summary In this episode, Andy welcomes Jen Fisher, author of Hope Is the Strategy: The Underrated Skill That Transforms Work, Leadership, and Wellbeing. In project management circles, we often hear the phrase "hope is not a strategy." Jen challenges that assumption, arguing that real hope is not wishful thinking at all. Instead, it's a practical cognitive process that can help leaders navigate uncertainty, pressure, and change. In the discussion, Jen explains how hope requires three elements: clear goals, multiple pathways to reach them, and the agency to believe we can influence outcomes. You'll also hear her personal story of realizing she was languishing under constant performance pressure, and how a candid conversation with her boss sparked the beginning of a healthier and more hopeful way of working. Along the way, Jen shares practical tools such as possibility journaling, energy ledgers, and hope spotting. She also explains why vulnerability can be a leadership superpower and how simple language shifts can turn hope killers into hope builders. If you're leading teams and projects under constant pressure and looking for practical ways to sustain both performance and wellbeing, this episode is for you! Sound Bites "How would I describe myself? I'm a hope dealer." "Hope is not flimsy. It's not whimsical." "Real hope actually requires action." "What drives hopelessness is feeling like there's nothing you can do." "Hope is the belief that tomorrow can be better than today." "67% of managers said that they've never been trained in how to manage other people. We put humans in charge of other humans, but we give them very little skill and training in how to lead." "You can perform when you're languishing, but the question is really why should we or why would we want to." "For the first time in my professional life, I actually felt seen and heard and valued." "Toxic positivity only makes people feel worse." "Possibility journaling is really thinking about what might be possible here." "Vulnerability is proof that you're human." "When people are feeling uncertain, they want to connect to somebody that feels human."

Real progress in medicine comes from asking better questions and prostate cancer care deserves that kind of thinking.In this episode, Dr. Stephen Petteruti examines the growing interest in ivermectin, fenbendazole, and the human-approved counterpart mebendazole. He explains how these drugs gained attention and why laboratory findings in cells or animals do not automatically translate into reliable human outcomes. Dr. Stephen also addresses the dangers of self-treatment fueled by internet claims. High-dose ivermectin protocols promoted online carry real risks, including neurological complications and liver injury. Within his Repurposed Drug Therapy protocol, these medications may play a limited, carefully monitored role alongside metabolic optimization, lifestyle changes, and clinical oversight.For men who want both innovation and safety, this episode brings clarity to a topic filled with noise.

It's Sunday evening. You open LinkedIn, stare at the blank screen, and feel that familiar wave of anxiety wash over you. You know what good content looks like. You understand the strategy. But somehow, you still can't bring yourself to hit publish.Sound familiar?In this episode, we're exposing the uncomfortable truth about LinkedIn consistency: the gap between knowing what to post and actually posting has nothing to do with discipline, creativity, or time. It's about infrastructure you don't have yet—and that changes everything.We dive deep into why the Sunday night scramble keeps happening even to smart, talented professionals, why "just be more consistent" advice makes the problem worse, and the exact four-part system that eliminates decision fatigue and makes posting feel automatic instead of agonizing.In this episode, you'll discover:The real reason you're stuck in the Sunday panic cycle: decision fatigue is killing your consistency before you even start (and why willpower will never solve this)Why every LinkedIn post requires 20+ micro-decisions and how your brain has already made 35,000 decisions by Sunday eveningThe four infrastructure components that make LinkedIn consistency effortless: content pillars, monthly planning, framework libraries, and batching protocolsHow to transition from 90 minutes of Sunday night panic to 10 minutes of calm scheduling (the exact before and after breakdown)The difference between templates and strategic frameworks, and why one kills your authenticity while the other amplifies itMonthly planning sessions that eliminate weekly scrambling: the 90-minute investment that solves four weeks of "what should I post?" paralysisBatching strategies that leverage creative momentum instead of fighting it weekly (backed by research showing task-switching reduces productivity by 40%)Real examples of what life looks like before infrastructure (guilt, skipped weeks, sporadic posting) versus after (calm Sunday evenings, consistent execution, doubled engagement)Why the professionals posting 3-4 times weekly aren't more disciplined than you—they just solved a different problem firstCommon obstacles like "I don't have time for planning" and "templates feel generic" and exactly how to overcome each oneWhether you've been stuck in the knowing-doing gap for months or you're ready to finally build sustainable LinkedIn consistency, this episode gives you the complete infrastructure roadmap to make posting automatic.SPECIAL INVITATION: We're hosting a FREE 3-day LinkedIn Content Roadmap Workshop (March 23-25, 2026 at 12pm EST) where we'll build your complete content system together in real-time.

Allen Hall: Welcome to the Uptime Wind Energy Podcast. I’m your host Allen Hall, and I’m here with Yolanda Padron, Rosemary Barnes and Matthew Stead. I am at ACP OM&S in Orlando. Home of Mickey Mouse and we’ve had, uh, this is our second day at OM and S and this is the conference where all the operators and the maintenance and the ISPs and all the new technologies show up to, to discuss their products and try to get some work for the summertime. Uh, so there’s a, a good number of vendors here. Solars here, not as much best as I would as expected, and obviously a lot to do with wind. [00:01:00] Uh, I know we’ve been talking internally on Slack and amongst one another. This is one of the, the most expensive conferences I have ever attended. It’s about $2,200 to attend just to get yourself into the door. Rosemary Barnes: And that’s US dollars too.  Matthew Stead: Real dollars.  Allen Hall: Green backs.  Rosemary Barnes: That’s like three and a half times what our event cost. What warmer cost. If you do the conversion  Allen Hall: yes.  Rosemary Barnes: And you get access to what? An exhibition and all of a whole bunch, a variety of amazing, informative, technical topics included with that ticket price, right?  Allen Hall: No. You get access to the exhibition, they will feed you some, uh, enchiladas and some, uh, free beer, but all the technical talks are extra. You have to pay. Uh, a couple hundred dollars  Rosemary Barnes: enchiladas and beer are a must have that everyone obviously wants, but talking about wind energy, totally optional. Nobody. Now, obviously not everybody is gonna wanna talk about wind energy, [00:02:00] so that’s, that’s an extra ticket that you need for that one. Allen Hall: Well, in order to go to the, I would call them technical talks, you have to pay for those. They have an A space in the middle of the convention where they’re doing what they call powered cast. Which are kind of modeled on podcasts, uh, that are sort of a produced thing where they have a panel up there. It’s similar what to where you’d done in Melbourne with Woma, but not with real technical people. The more polishing people. That’s what I saw. I don’t know a lot of the names and I’m pretty used to, to recognizing names of wind and it looks like to be a lot more policy people not. Blade experts or people like that. Rosemary Barnes: I’m a little bit confused because it’s very different to, you know, I love to complain about the Australian wind energy events, but this sounds very different to the way that it’s run here. Like usually at the exhibitions, the exhibitors pay like a bunch of money to be there, and what they want is people to come see it. So [00:03:00] usually here the exhibition is. Free to attend because you are there to be advertised to, you know, like it’s not some like amazing, valuable thing to you. It’s super valuable to the exhibitors. That’s why they have to pay, you know, $10,000 plus to, to be there. Right, but you are saying that they’re, they’re charging the, the attendees are, they’re giving the exhibition space away for free then? Allen Hall: No, the exhibition space costs a tremendous amount of money for a little tiny space. I’m actually in our slot, we share. A slot because the prices are so high, we’re sharing it with AC 8 83 who we love and with C and C onsite, who also we love. So it’s a good combination ’cause we like one another. We’re fun to hang out with, but it’s probably a nine by nine space. Uh, and then you have to pay for carpet and all the furniture that happens inside of that space, you can easily spend. $10,000 on a salon.  Matthew Stead: Question for you, Allen. So, um, how [00:04:00] does, how does the industry foster, you know, new, new technology, new companies, you know, growth of the industry, new ideas, so, you know, how does this event, um, foster those sorts of things? Allen Hall: It doesn’t because it’s really, it’s pay to play as Rosemary has pointed out a number of times and is frustrated by. In order to get heard, you have to pay to one, have a booth, or if you want to get up on stage, it costs money. It’s, it’s not a small amount, by the way. So, uh, if you’re a new company, you got a great idea. You even have traction. Say you’re TRL seven plus and you want to connect with operators, it’s hard to do that here. Uh, the operators tend to be a little gun shy and, and they’re. Off on the side. I, I know some of them obviously, ’cause I, I know who they are, but it isn’t like, uh, the operators are walking around necessarily talking to all the exhibitors. That’s not how this [00:05:00] works. What generally is happening is the operators are talking, uh, to people that are selling products in these conference rooms on the side. So those things are completely off the show floor. It’s not the best situation. Like, I gotta admit, I’ve been to a lot of other conferences like in aerospace. Those tend to be a little more free flowing.  Rosemary Barnes: It’s interesting ’cause it’s like, obviously you go to the events because everybody goes to the event and I’m sure you’ve had some great conversations. Um, however, you don’t need to go inside. Like when you go to one of these huge events, you’re trapped inside a windowless room for all day, every day for several days in a row. Like, why does it need, why does it need to be there if they’re discourage, actively discouraging people from going to any presentations? Why couldn’t you just grab a bunch of friends, you know, put on an open invite, Hey, we’re all gonna the beach this week. Let’s go talk wind energy at the beach. Like, I, I don’t understand why we need to subject ourselves to this sort of, this sort of event. Like I [00:06:00] just, it it’s gotten out outta control, don’t you think?  Allen Hall: It has. I would never talk wind energy while I’m at the beach. I go, that’s probably one place where I’m not talking wind energy, but there are other nice places you could be. To talk about what’s happening in the industry and, and that’s one of the frustrating pieces about this is, although I love a lot of the people that are here, it’s not a great place to share new ideas or to learn something new. It’s, it’s mostly a, a meet and greet and catch up a reunion in a sense. Of, Hey, we’re the survivors. That’s it. Part of it is that feel right.  Rosemary Barnes: It’s pretty hard though if you are not like, you know, everybody you need to talk to. And I started doing the same thing, like at the um, one, one of the recent events or one of the events last year in, in Australia. I was so fed up with it the year before. I’m like, I’m not giving them any money this year. I was at least allowed to go to the exhibition for free at that event. So, you know, at least that’s something, but I mean, I barely even did that. Anyway. What I did was I set up at a cafe near to the event and just, I just [00:07:00]scheduled meetings like back to back for two days. Um, everyone just came to the cafe. But that’s ’cause I know everybody, right? Like, it’s like someone that’s new to the industry can get nothing out of these events. Now it seems like it’s just, it’s so, it’s so sad. Like where, how, how are you going? Like, you know, people brand new to the industry. You used to be able to go to an event and just be like, okay, I’m gonna just have information overload for two or three days, meet a bunch of great people and I’ll come away feeling like I’m part of this industry. I just can’t imagine. That happening at the event that you are describing, that someone would, would show up and, you know, come away knowing a lot more about the industry and with, with a bunch of useful connections. Am I right?  Allen Hall: Uh, I think you’re right. There’s were a couple of people that I ran into that were new to the industry, trying to start a service provider or repair business, generally speaking that, or a drone business that we’re trying to get into the, the industry and we’re reaching out and talking to people and. The thing about [00:08:00] wind is when you actually get ahold of somebody, they will help you. It’s, it’s very, uh, open. What do you do? What are you trying to do? Wherever you talk, who you talk to, here’s some names that will happen, but it is daunting because there’s a lot of people here. You don’t know anybody, and there’s no way to really introduce them. I think that one of the things that, uh, American C Clean powered. Did, uh, that I noticed was they had like a first timers reunion space, so, or a meeting space so that it had some beach balls and a little Tahiti hut or whatever those tiki hut or whatever that was where you could kind of hang out because you knew. But I’m not sure that’s the best way to do that. I think, you know, American clean power could do a much better job of knowing who’s first time and connecting them. If the industry’s gonna grow, you need to be taking in new people and new ideas. To it. The only way you’re gonna be able to do that is if you actively make it happen. Matthew Stead: Did you learn anything new [00:09:00] so far?  Allen Hall: Not new. Uh, I, because we’re doing the podcast and we’re recorded several episodes in the last two days, I was able to ask specific questions like, what are you working on? What’s new? What’s coming out? And that’s the way to get to those answers. But if you’re walking the exhibit four, you would not see a lot of new technology and. Three years ago, I think four years ago, especially like during COVID, there was some pretty cool technology out on the show floor, uh, but not so much Today, the industry’s matured and, and it’s a tough industry to, to survive in. So what you generally see is companies that have been around 3, 4, 5 years that have made it, that are profitable, that are making good and income, and are providing a service and have sustained businesses, that’s what’s here today. Yolanda Padron: I think that a CP, the intent behind events like the one you’re, and Allen and the one we’ve, the ones we’ve all been to are, the intent is great, but the [00:10:00] execution isn’t super great. Not just from the the point of view of people coming in from new to the industry and wanting to start an ISP or something, but just from the owner operator. Point of view, you know, you’re, if you have to pay to go to specific talks or to go to technical talks that you don’t really know how much they’ll benefit you until basically the end of it. Once you see the information that’s gone into it and the practicality of everything that they, they’re talking about, and then when you’re walking in the showroom like four, like it’s a little bit daunting sometimes. There’s hundreds of companies. Sitting around in kind of like a maze, right? And it’s not always like, oh, you need lightning protection. Like that’s that area. Or you need better locks for your o and m buildings or for your towers or something. It’s that section like you’re just walking around everywhere. And then just. It kind of turns [00:11:00] into, like sometimes it can turn into just a game of like, if you’re going with a lot of colleagues, like a kind of a drinking day or a day to just see who can collect more freebies. Like I remember one year we had a group chat of like, oh, like every time you saw something cool that was like a, a merchandise thing, like you would put it in the group chat, like E 46 has this. And then we would all go and get it and it was. I don’t think that’s the intent behind what, what we wanted to do. It really wasn’t what we saw at oma if we’re being completely honest.  Matthew Stead: What I’m hearing is that there’s a really strong need in the US for another event. Is that, is that what I’m hearing?  Allen Hall: I think there needs to be a real technical event run by people who are technical experts. I think that’s it because there are a lot of new solutions out there, but you’re not gonna find them at OMX. That’s just not the place. Now, I’m sure a CP would dispute that and that’s fine. They [00:12:00] have their own opinion. But I think having attended this for several years and a CP and a number of other, uh, conferences in wins, there’s a small subset that are sharing solutions. It’s small and maybe there is need for one in America. It’s hard saying, Matthew, I. I think that maybe there’s is a time and place for it. I’m not sure America’s ready for it in, in a broader scope, but maybe something small. Maybe that’s the way to start off, is to do something small. Bring in the people we know and love from around the world have, go back to Rosemary’s point. Maybe we do something by the, by the pool or by the ocean. Maybe we do talk wind energy for, for an afternoon.  Rosemary Barnes: I understand why you can’t, um, have an event at. A resort. And it was suggested actually to me a couple of times, like people when we were organizing Wilma, why is this in Melbourne? Why isn’t this in the Maldives? Or you know, some, something like that. And the [00:13:00] one of the reasons like for us, ’cause in our Melbourne event it’s a, you know, it’s a very low cost event. We don’t make any money from it. It’s small. At least half of wind energy People in Australia are living in Melbourne, so it’s very, you know, easy for them to go to that it doesn’t, it doesn’t cost much or take much time. So that was that reason. But I think that, you know, more broadly, like say we did a global event and we put it in the, in the malice or in Fiji or Hawaii or whatever, like, people aren’t gonna get that approved from their managers, right? So even though you know, you’ve spent, I don’t know how much the technical sessions were, but by the time that you’ve gotten to a CP, if you had to. Even, you know, fly there in Australian hotel for a few nights, like it’s gonna be, you know, four grand or something. You can get to a nice location, probably an all-inclusive resort for a week, somewhere nice for similar money. Like you would spend more time having quality conversations and it would be, you know, nice and enjoyable, but [00:14:00] your manager is never gonna approve that. So I think that’s the challenge. To find somewhere that’s like nice and conducive to being relaxed and open, but that doesn’t sound like. So obviously a junket that no one will get approval to go to it. That’s the, that’s the challenge.  Matthew Stead: Um, just this week we got the feedback from the WMA conference. So we got, um, some of the results from the survey and I think, uh, probably the key thing to me was that we achieved 4.6 out of five, um, star rating. Um, everyone gave it a four or a five. And we know people that give things four out of five actually mean five. So I think we did really well. So, uh, and the feedback was also, um, you know, the technical content, but people want more, more and more, uh, technical content and, and the interaction with people. Rosemary Barnes: That’s a really, a really key thing to get feedback on if there are. Experts or categories of information that you would like to see covered that haven’t been, because I think, like we talk a lot about how, what the [00:15:00]problems are with a pay to play kind of model where speakers pay and get up and give a sales pitch and you know, there’s a lot of problems with that. But then when it’s the other way around and you know, we’re choosing speakers that we know are good, then you fall into the risk of having it become cliquey where it’s just, you know, like all our friends over and over again. It’s uh, like hard for us to both vet the quality and bring in people that we don’t know. So that’s where the outside feedback is gonna make that a lot better. Um, and it takes a long time, you know, you do, ’cause you, you do need to get to know a speaker before you can decide whether they’re gonna get up in the acne. You don’t sell at you for half an hour when they were supposed to, you know, do something informative. So, would love to hear that feedback.  Matthew Stead: I think the proof is in the pudding because, uh, at for woma, no one said that they were unlikely to attend.  Allen Hall: Oh, I, I would hate to see what the numbers are gonna be for OMS this year. Uh, ’cause you know, you know why I say that? Because a lot of people that have exhibited in the past do not have a booth this year, and they’re walking [00:16:00] around the show. And to me that’s an alarm signal. They should have a booth. They have good things to talk about. They’re a successful company. They’re doing great things to win, but they feel like this is just too much. It’s too much. Eventually you reach too much. I think we’re there.  Rosemary Barnes: I think it’s been a really good, like, uh, a big event with an exhibition can be a real money maker. And for, you know, like, uh, assuming that SAP uses this. The money that they make from this event to deliver services for the American Wind Industry. Uh, I mean, you, you know, you can probably argue about how well or not they do that. I don’t have an opinion ’cause I’m not in America. But, you know, like, I, I’m not saying that that’s not the, um, a, a noble goal and a good thing to, for the business to be doing. However, I think that it, that you can overshoot and, you know, so you can make a, a bunch of money for a few years. You know, you’ve got a good reputation for your event. You’ve got everybody comes to it. You can charge squillions to exhibitors. You can charge squillions more to speakers. You can even start charging people to watch the speakers who have [00:17:00] paid to be there. Probably, I don’t, I don’t actually know in this case, my assumption. Um, but at some point. Like you’ve cottoned on that, hey, it’s not actually worth paying extra for the, um, you know, to go watch the speakers. And the last one of these, you know, similar Australian events I was at, I was like, Hey, it’s not actually worth me paying to go into there because I can get all the benefits by just being near to it, like then. Once you don’t have heaps and heaps of people moving through, then exhibitors don’t wanna pay $10,000 to be there. Um, and so like, it’s just, it’s not sustainable to run the event like that. And that’s what I don’t think that, um, a lot of these event organization companies, especially the ones that aren’t run by an industry body, um, the ones that are just run by a company who exist to make money off events. You know, like they’re not, I don’t think that they’re planning these events to be sustainable in the long term and to improve the industry.  Matthew Stead: Can I ask, um, a question for Yolanda and Allen. Um, so assuming this money for a CP [00:18:00] ends up as lobbying money, do you think lobbying at the moment actually helps? Allen Hall: Here’s the feeling about it on the floor, and I haven’t talked to everybody here clearly. But the significant percentage I had talked to thinks that the policy efforts have not borne fruit, and that in some aspects, uh, they have increased the tension. Whether they’ve intentionally have done that or not, I don’t know. But I think the feeling on the floor here, the last two days has been the industry is in a quote unquote downturn or a pause, and they’re waiting till 2028 to see what happens. That’s not the answer I wanted to hear. And also at the state level, I think, uh, the amount of policy changes that are happening are not pro wind, pro solar or pro best, except maybe in a couple of states. So, uh, you feel like although [00:19:00] American clean power is on a national level, you will also like them to be at a state level, helping move some things forward and stop some of the prohibitions that are happening, or to get some of the permits issued. That’s one of the things that popped up today, talking to someone in the know as that permits are hard to get hold of in some states. Well, American Clean Power is supposed to be helping with that. I’m not sure that they are, at least if they are, you can’t see anything visible happening. From the outside, which is a shame. That’s really a shame. So, you know where we go from here? I, I, I’m kind of in Rosemary’s camp. I had no idea. Uh, next year gonna be really interesting. I, I don’t know what the numbers of attendees are. Uh, I’m guessing a couple thousand people are here. I’m guessing, let’s just say it’s 2000 people. I may be off plus or minus. Well, not on the negative side. It’s more than a thousand people here, but it’s not 10,000. That’s for sure.  Yolanda Padron: I think that, uh, someone at Woma summed it up really [00:20:00] well when they said that, um, we need to shift the conversation from this is the right thing to do to this, is this, we should make this to be cost effective and it should be the obvious decision to make. Right? Just from a financial standpoint. Uh, and I think, I think that’s right from my, uh. Personal interactions with a lot of people in dc I think that lobbying really helps regardless of the political party that one is affiliated to. Um, just, just the way that sometimes our, our system seems to. I not, not to say that anything’s negative, I think it’s, I mean, it’s just the, the way things pan out, uh, oftentimes in the [00:21:00] us. Um, yeah, I mean, I’ve, I’ve heard from. From both sides.  Allen Hall: Well, to Yolanda’s point, I would say we don’t belong to American clean power because one, it’s expensive and as a small business, does it make sense as the changing policy that helps me? The answer to that historically has been no. It doesn’t mean it’s not gonna happen in the future. I think a lot of. Companies of our size are saying the same thing. There are some that have been here a lot longer that have knew a CP before it was a CP when it was a, a slightly different organization and they’ve continued on on, on some level just I think because they’re familiar with it. But I think the newcomers are having a heart attack. And I would consider me to be a newcomer that we’ve been in wind since about 2012 or 2013, so we’ve been in it quite a while at this point. But there’s some old guard here. The new. The new players though, I think are struggling. I think there’s very few new companies that are flashy. Like we saw in San Antonio a [00:22:00] couple of years ago at American Clean Power. We’re like, wow, there are some boosts here. And man, there’s some firepower happening and some really good marketing and some new products and new ideas. That’s not. That’s not here. Not, not this year. Delamination and bottom line, failures and blades are difficult problems to detect early. These hidden issues can cost you millions in repairs and lost energy production. C-I-C-N-D-T are specialists to detect these critical flaws before they become a. Expensive burdens. Their non-destructive test technology penetrates deep to blade materials to find voids and cracks. Traditional inspections completely. Miss C-I-C-N-D-T Maps. Every critical defect delivers actionable reports and provides support to get your blades back in service. So visit cic ndt.com because catching blade problems early will save you millions.[00:23:00] Denmark has long been the home of the wind industry, but now our proposed new wealth taxes threatening to push one of its most prominent executives out the door. And Henrik Anderson, chief executive officer of Vestas says he will leave Denmark rather than pay the new tax, even if it costs him tens of millions of Broner and exit fees. Uh, Anderson earned 32 million Kroger last year, and estimates he pays an effective tax rate of 60% already. He argues Denmark already leads Europe in income taxation and adding a wealth tax crosses the line and he, if he goes, he warns senior leadership could follow. Now, that’s a pretty bold statement for someone who was seen as one of the leadership. Uh, a group of Denmark on the industrial side. Of course,  Rosemary Barnes: I’d argue it’s also culturally, [00:24:00] culturally not a super Danish thing to, to say at least publicly. Um, yeah, I dunno how many Danish listeners we’ve got, but one thing that I learned when I lived there, they’ve got this thing called yte Long. I think it comes from an, an old book, like fictional book, but it does pretty. Well, Danish people say it pretty accurately describes Danish culture. I’ve just, uh, looked it up. But, um, so it’s Y Y’s law and that has 10, there’s 10 rules in Y’s law and they are, one, you’re not to think that you are anything special. Two, you’re not to think you are as good as we are. Three, you’re not to think you are smarter than we are, or you’re not to imagine yourself better than we are. You know, it can, it continues down like that. But I just wonder like, is the Danish wind industry, have they flown too close to the sun? Have they become too thought themselves too special? Is this an example of where Denmark Danish people would say, you know [00:25:00] what? Who do you think you are when dentistry, you think that you’re better than us? You think you’re smarter than us? Do you think that you don’t deserve to contribute to society? Because that is one of the biggest cultural differences that I found in in Denmark, was that people genuinely think that they have the um, responsibility when they’re doing well to make sure that everybody else in society is doing well. This is an interesting cultural moment for Denmark, is all I would try to say that this to me, I’m very interested to see how Danish people respond to this idea that. We’re gonna, we’re gonna leave now because we don’t wanna share our, uh, wealth with the Danish, with Danish society as a whole  Allen Hall: 32 million kroners, that’s actually extremely low and in the United States. Uh, there are thousands of companies, much smaller than Vestas, where the CEO is making a lot more than that, and to give half of that, more than [00:26:00] half of that away, so the CEO is taking home a million and US dollars, like 1,000,002, that’s not a tremendous amount of money. I for the responsibility which are on that person’s shoulders. I could see being a little upset about that. And obviously he travels in circles in which he meets a lot of people that are making a lot more money come to America, stop at a, I don’t know, there’s a lot of places, machine shops that’ll make more money than that. Uh, so I think there’s a right to be upset about it. You know, the, everything that’s happening in Denmark at the moment, I’m trying to. I feel like Denmark is getting it together. And then these things happen and I start to worry again. Uh, there’s, there’s so many things that have happened in the United States. They’re pushing against Denmark, and I feel, I’m always apologizing to my people I know in Denmark and like, this is another one. Like, oh, geez, yeah, we, you know, vest can move to America. Oh, no, no, no, no. I want buses to be where it is. Stay [00:27:00] there. But I think there’s opportunities for investors to move and you kind of get the feeling that they’re leaving Denmark slowly. Have you noticed that recently?  Rosemary Barnes: Maybe. I mean, uh, all of those Danish wind energy companies used to manufacture in Denmark and barely, there’s barely any Danish manufacturing now. So I mean, to a certain extent this is, you know, started a long time ago, but I also think that the, what you described at the tax of the CEO income and the income not being high, it’s not just, uh. Top 1% kind of issue. That’s something that I, I definitely felt it when I worked there, but I think that like, would your average Danish person wish that CEOs were paid more like Americans and that Danish society became more like American with a huge wealth inequality? I, I’m gonna go out in a limb and say. 90% plus of Danish people would absolutely abhor the idea of that happening there. And they will be very firmly on side of you should be, um, CEOs should not be [00:28:00] making that much money and people that are making a lot of money should be paying a lot of tax to support the rest of society at just, I, I, I’m. Pretty sure that he is like a really core cultural value.  Matthew Stead: I think he is good at, I mean, things don’t change unless things change. And, um, uh, I think it’s good for him to be pushing and, you know, making this a, a public discussion and a public topic. I mean, if he hadn’t have come out talking about this problem, we wouldn’t have been talking about it. So, uh, I think yeah. Good on him for raising it and for being brave. I mean, you, like you say, Rosie, um, is not traditional cultural. Values in, in, in Denmark, but, you know, good on him for, for pushing the, pushing the, the, the barrow.  Allen Hall: It’s, it’s hard, right? I think Vestas works in a global community and they see all different kinds of cultures and all kinds of economic systems, and they operate in all of ’em. And, uh, the CEO of Vestus were in the United States and they have a large manufacturing presence in the United States. Let’s face it. [00:29:00] Uh, easily making 10 million in the United States, maybe more easy. And I don’t think they’re paying him nearly enough for the work that he has done and things that he has accomplished. You have to admit, the CEO of Vestus has really put a lot of time and effort into that company and has improved it in ways that are somehow, uh, never discussed, but are, in my opinion, immeasurable. So for the long-term health of that company, they are seen as the preeminent wind turbine manufactured today. That’s hard to do. That wraps up another episode of the Uptime Wind Energy Podcast.

Denny Hamlin earns his first top-five finish of the season in Phoenix, but the car still wasn't as fast as Christopher Bell and Ryan Blaney. Denny explains why they had the best car in November but didn't have that same speed this time around. He admits he's checking the points after every race, but he isn't worried yet because the season is still long. Sunday's race featured more horsepower, failing tires, and racing that felt like old-school NASCAR. Denny explains why Goodyear isn't to blame for the tire issues and why the teams may have pushed things too far. The guys also debate the classic strategy question once again: two tires or four? Plus, Denny is happy that “win and you're in” is gone; they discuss whether Chase Briscoe's title hopes are already in trouble, preview why Darlington could turn into complete chaos, and Denny reveals he's going fishing at Celine Dion's later this week.

Are you struggling to move forward in your God-led business, ministry, or calling? Do you feel like you are circling the same mountain, praying for a breakthrough, yet nothing seems to shift? In this episode, we talk about what God may actually be asking you to let go of. Control. The need to manage every outcome. The need to see the full plan before you take the next step. The pressure to make everything happen in your own strength. You will be challenged to stop waiting for certainty and start letting go of your grip. Real growth begins when you release control and choose obedience. If you are ready to step into your next season of purpose and profit, this conversation will help you identify where control is holding you back and how to move forward with trust.   I pray this blesses you!   Ready to Make Consistent Income From a Podcast?  Join my 5-Day Profitable Podcast Bootcamp!

Are you successful on paper but restless underneath? Have you reached midlife (40, 50, or in your 60's) and your realized something feels slightly "off." Not broken. Not dramatic. Just…stuck. What if the restlessness you're feeling right now isn't a problem… but a signal that your next chapter is calling? This week's episode of the IMPACT SHOW Podcast is POWERFUL and DEEP. I sit down with a dear friend of mine, Bobby Kelly. I've known Bobby for over 20 years, and let me tell you—this guy is one of the most passionate, authentic, and no-nonsense coaches I know. Bobby has spent more than three decades helping people transform their lives—physically and mentally—and now he's on a mission to help people reinvent themselves and step boldly into their next chapter. Bobby just released a powerful new book called "The Next Chapter Starts Now—A Playbook for Reinvention, Renewal, & Real Life Progress" and in this conversation he shares the real framework he's used to help high performers navigate major life transitions. This isn't just another motivational pep talk. It's about building structure, asking the hard questions, and creating the clarity needed to move forward when life feels stuck or misaligned. If you've ever found yourself asking, "Is this it?" or "What's next for me?" or "How do I change direction without blowing up my life?"—this episode is for you. Bobby drops some serious wisdom and practical tools that will help you rethink where you are and start designing where you want to go next. In this episode, we talk about: • Why motivation is a terrible long-term strategy and what actually creates lasting change. • The difference between being successful vs. truly aligned in your life and career. • How to know when you're experiencing burnout… or simply outgrowing your environment. • Why that feeling of restlessness might actually be a signal that growth is calling. • The power of asking the right questions to create clarity and momentum. • Why your environment and the people around you play a huge role in the next level of your life. • Bobby's incredible story about how his coaching style even helped President George W. Bush run one of his fastest treadmill 5Ks. • The importance of structure, discipline, and micro-wins when creating your next chapter. • Real-life stories of people who have made powerful life pivots at 40, 50, 60 and beyond. My friends, here's the truth: your next chapter isn't something that magically appears one day. It's something you decide to step into. If something inside you has been nudging you lately… if you feel that pull that there's more for your life, your purpose, and your impact—this conversation is going to light a fire in you. Take a listen, soak up the wisdom Bobby shares, and start asking yourself the big question: What does my next chapter look like?

She avoided gluten with all her might, then, with great hesitation, she later tried homemade bread made from freshly milled grain and was shocked to find she could digest it with no negative symptoms. Today, she eats bread made from freshly milled grain every day and feels better than ever!

It's confusing. It's painful. And it can feel like you're repeating the same pattern in a slightly different form. Episode Summary In this episode, Thais Gibson breaks down the subconscious reasons this happens and what you need to shift internally to stop the cycle for good. Your conscious mind may want an emotionally available, healthy partner but your subconscious mind drives 95%+ of your patterns. If you grew up internalizing criticism, over-functioning emotionally, or abandoning yourself to please others, those patterns can make narcissistic or Avoidant dynamics feel subconsciously familiar even when they hurt. After leaving a narcissist, your nervous system may swing to what feels like the “opposite”, someone calmer, less intense, more predictable. But if you haven't yet learned to: •Set boundaries •Honor your own needs •Receive empathy •Become emotionally available to yourself …you may still unconsciously choose unavailable partners. Real change happens when you stop over-functioning for others and start becoming available to yourself first. Key Takeaways ✔️Why your subconscious comfort zone overrides conscious desire ✔️How self-criticism makes narcissistic dynamics feel familiar ✔️ The pattern of manipulating yourself to please others ✔️Why you attract unavailable partners until you're available to yourself ✔️How emotional over-functioning sabotages intimacy ✔️The difference between emotional intensity and emotional availability ✔️What true healing requires to break the cycle Timestamps 00:00 – When You Go From Dating A Narcissist to An Avoidant 00:52 – The Conscious vs Subconscious Mind 02:47 – 1.

Most HSPs think they're being assertive when they're still stuck in passivity or passive aggression that feels icky. Until my thirties, invisibility was my whole strategy, gold medal people pleaser, total Gumby for whatever anybody wanted. Growing up in dysfunction taught me to keep peace, avoid shame, never rock boats, and my nervous system still confuses distance with actual danger by filling gaps with zero evidence. Real assertiveness interrupts all that projecting our past onto new people, it says I will state my reality and see what happens instead of mind reading or assuming. Passivity just gathers resentment while passive aggression creates confusion, but assertiveness? It gathers clarity. Light and love.

The man who took Nancy Guthrie has been called sloppy, amateurish, incompetent by every talking head on cable news. Former FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke disagrees. After 21 years with the Bureau—including leading the Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program—his assessment is clear: what we're seeing on that doorbell footage isn't unusual. It's baseline.The Walmart backpack. The awkward holster placement. The improvised camera cover fashioned from potted plant foliage. Dreeke explains this is what actual criminal operations look like. The movies trained us to expect meticulous planning and elegant execution. Real offenders show up with cheap equipment and figure it out as they go. The cases that get solved typically involve exactly this preparation level. We just don't broadcast those nationally.The uncomfortable question: this suspect's operation was messy and it's still working. Four weeks—no identification, no arrest, no vehicle. Sloppy-but-successful tells us something different than sloppy-and-caught. Dreeke examines whether this is someone who lacks capacity or someone driven by desperation or compulsion. The willingness to proceed despite being recorded, problem-solving on camera in real time—that might not be stupidity.Drawing on his counterintelligence background, Dreeke explains what a genuinely sophisticated version of this operation would have looked like—and how wide the gap is between trained tradecraft and what appears on the Guthrie footage.Meanwhile, calls for Sheriff Chris Nanos's removal grow louder daily. But what would it take? A recall requires roughly 121,825 signatures in 120 days—near impossible. Impeachment doesn't apply to county officers in Arizona. Two AG investigations have gone silent. Nanos won by 481 votes. His deputies voted no confidence. His supervisors twice requested outside investigations. Arizona's constitution protects him until 2028.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Burnout Is Contagious: The Hidden Psychology Destroying High Performers | Dr. Guy Winch Why "Work-Life Balance" Is a Lie, How Stress Infects Your Relationships, and The Psychological Shift That Stops the Grind Is your ambition fueling your life — or quietly infecting everyone around you? What If Your Burnout Isn't From Overwork… . But From the Way Your Mind Is Wired Around Work? . Burnout isn't just exhaustion. . It's a psychological contagion. It's identity fusion. It's unconscious rumination. And for high performers, it's often self-inflicted. In this episode of The Dov Baron Show, Dov sits down with psychologist and bestselling author Guy Winch, author of "Mind Over Grind," to expose the hidden psychology behind leadership burnout, work stress, and the myth of work-life balance. If you are ambitious, driven, competitive, and relentless…This conversation will hit close to home.

Everyone watching the Nancy Guthrie case has said the same thing: the suspect looks incompetent. The Walmart backpack. The awkward holster. The camera cover made from plant leaves. Former FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke says that assessment misses the point entirely.Dreeke spent 21 years with the FBI, including serving as Chief of the Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program. His analysis: this suspect isn't unusually sloppy. He's average. The cases that get solved—home invasions, abductions, crimes that end in arrests—most involve exactly this level of preparation. Hollywood has conditioned us to expect professional-grade execution. Real offenders show up with cheap gear and improvise.The difference here is that a nation is watching. And four weeks later, the suspect remains unidentified. No arrest. No vehicle. His operation was messy—and it's still working.Dreeke examines what that actually means. Is this someone who plans poorly because they lack capacity? Or someone who proceeds despite being recorded because they're desperate or compulsive? The willingness to continue on camera, solving problems in real time—that's not necessarily stupidity. It might indicate something else entirely.As the investigation stalls, calls for Sheriff Chris Nanos's removal have intensified. But Arizona law makes that nearly impossible. A recall would require approximately 121,825 valid signatures in 120 days. Two Attorney General investigations have produced no charges. Impeachment doesn't exist for county officers under Arizona's constitution.Nanos won reelection by 481 votes. His deputies voted no confidence. The Board of Supervisors twice requested outside investigations. He placed his political opponent on administrative leave weeks before the election. The system designed to protect elected officials from political removal now shields him from accountability until 2028.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

THE 1,400-YEAR WAR: Raymond Ibrahim on the Real History of Islam Is the "History of Islam" being systematically sanitized in Western schools? In this explosive episode, world-renowned historian and former U.S. Library of Congress scholar Raymond Ibrahim joins the show to dismantle the "grievance narrative" of Jihad. While the West is told that modern violence is a response to recent foreign policy, Ibrahim uses his fluency in Arabic to reveal ancient texts that prove a 1,400-year continuity of conquest. We dive deep into the Persecution of Christians, both historical and modern, and how the 7th-century Arab conquests "swallowed" three-quarters of the original Christian world. Ibrahim exposes the doctrine of Taqiyya (strategic deception), the Sword Verse that commands the subjugation of "People of the Book," and the legal reality of Dhimmitude. From the "Double-Speak" of Al-Qaeda to the Creeping Sharia and the Fall of Europe, this conversation reveals why the West is currently losing a civilizational war it refuses to admit is happening. We specifically discuss the takeover of the West through institutional infiltration, highlighting the surreal reality of New York officials like Zohran Mamdani transforming New York.
