What if one question could unlock hidden talent, prevent regrettable exits, and personalize careers today?This episode of The Good Leadership Podcast is the second part of my conversation with Dr. Beverly Kaye and Dr. Dave Ulrich where we dig into the conversations that actually keep great people: learning from mistakes (and wins), stay interviews, career LEVER moves (Lateral, Explore, Vertical, Enrichment, Realignment, Relocation), and how to personalize careers in an AI era. Plus: why AI × HI (human ingenuity) is the real advantage, how to do elegant exits, and practical ways to build resilience.About the guestsDr. Beverly Kaye — Pioneer in career development and employee engagement; bestselling author of Love 'Em or Lose 'Em and Help Them Grow or Watch Them Go.Dr. Dave Ulrich — Often called “The Father of Modern HR,” global authority on leadership, culture, and human capability; author of 30+ books.Chapters00:00 Navigating Employee Departures09:56 The Evolving Role of HR17:07 Leveraging AI in HR22:18 Skills for Future Leaders27:52 Final Advice for Future Leaders31:17 Key Insights and Takeaways

Live from the Senior Living Innovation Forum's Fall Conference, Steve Moran sits down with entrepreneur and former public-company CEO Ben Lytle to rethink aging through the lens of human potential. They dig into why perspective is the beginning of wisdom, how the "tension of opposites" unlocks better decisions, and how communities can become places where older adults live their best lives and leave a legacy. Ben lays out practical plays: behavior-change ecosystems (beyond apps), incentive-aligned healthcare, gamified and personalized wellness, intergenerational engagement—and even AI "alter egos" that preserve residents' stories while supporting daily well-being. If you're building tomorrow's senior living, this conversation is your blueprint. They cover: Perspective > pessimism: By most measures we're in the best time in history; wisdom starts with context and proportion. Tension of opposites: Leaders who hold and integrate conflicting viewpoints create more innovative, workable solutions. Human potential as a value proposition: Market your community as a place to live your best life and leave a legacy. Legacy tech: Offer residents AI "alter egos" to capture stories, wisdom, and family history—and even support daily wellness checks. Behavior change needs an ecosystem: App + clinical endorsement + coaching + community = real, sustained health improvements. Gamified, personalized health: Give residents clear "optimal health scores," daily actions, and peer comparisons to drive engagement. Realignment of incentives: Pay providers for improving outcomes, not volume—primary care and aging services benefit first. Democratizing senior living: Use scalable tech and redesigned services to deliver quality experiences at a lower cost and to more people.

Marshall and Jeffrey discuss how debates over Alexander Hamilton and Thomas Jefferson's ideas about the power of government has shaped America's political debates since the 18th century, whether our struggle to make government work effectively to accomplish its goals results from too much Jeffersonianism, why political philosophy isn't just an academic interest, and how Presidents Ronald Reagan and Donald Trump's project of attacking the administrative state and the government power will stand the test of time. 

What does it mean to bring feminine energy into leadership and parenting?   In this episode of Women of Color Rise, I speak with Shavon Terrell-Camper, a Realignment Coach and former therapist with over 3,000 hours of coaching experience helping individuals build self-awareness, emotional intelligence, and authentic leadership. Shavon shares how to shift from default masculine approaches—power, control, being right—into a more expansive definition of leadership and parenting grounded in feminine energy.   Go beyond default definitions: Strong leadership doesn't have to mean domination or control. Feminine energy invites us to evolve past fear, hold space, and lead with authenticity.   See the benefits of feminine energy and choice points: In a culture of "go, go, go," we can pause and ask, What do I need to nourish my business, family, and self? or How can I hold space instead of forcing outcomes?   Start with you: Leadership and parenting begin with the relationship we have with ourselves. Rather than fixing others, we can focus on treating ourselves with compassion and presence.   Shavon's wisdom is a powerful reminder that we don't have to lead or parent from default settings—we can choose to bring more feminine energy to care for ourselves, our families, and our teams.   Check out Shavon's family workshop offering to improve communication and connection here.   Get full show notes and more information here: https://analizawolf.com/episode-114-embrace-feminine-energy-in-leadership-and-parenting-with-shavon-terrell-camper/

In this episode, we sit down with David Kennedy, Vice President for Alumni Engagement and Development at Duke University—a leader who's navigated some of the toughest questions in higher education today. We talk about his career, why Duke's current campaign has no dollar goal, and how they have managed making 20% cuts. David explains his north star phrase which is: our job is to fulfill the mission.In unprecedented times, when every institution is being asked to do more with less, David shares how strategic realignment is both a financial exercise and a leadership one.We also touch on how we can develop the skills we'll need to meet the challenges ahead. It's a conversation about the craft of leading through change.

Send us a textThe laughs stop early and the gloves come off. We get straight to why Atlanta feels broken: leadership that talks process while the product keeps slipping. We call out the performative firings, the sideline optics that change nothing, and the roster choices that undercut the plan in real time. Then we name the real leverage points—who actually sets direction, who dodges blame, and where accountability needs to land if the Falcons want a culture that travels past Thanksgiving.We widen the lens with teams that are getting it right. The Rams, Jets, Ravens, and Packers illustrate the same truth: buttoned-up programs beat clever play sheets. You see it in how Stafford is managed, how a locker room rallies for a first win, how Harbaugh squeezes value from backups, and how Green Bay readied Jordan Love to stand tall opposite Aaron Rodgers. Across the league, discipline and identity compound; talent and tricks fade.College football isn't spared. We unpack LSU's buyout drama and the dangers of political meddling, then argue for a sane coaching calendar so recruiting and transfers don't devolve into chaos. Realignment gets put on blast for turning regional rivalries into cross-country marathons that punish families and academics. NIL isn't the problem; leadership without a framework is.We close with the NBA's high-octane reality: scoring is booming, whistles are hot, and totals are wild. That's fun—until betting variance and foul volume start to swamp the experience. We celebrate Wimby's leap while wrestling with how guard value is getting squeezed in awards and contracts. And we don't duck the gambling shadow. Competitiveness, money, and optics now live center court; transparency and standards need to catch up.If you want unvarnished takes, smart context, and picks with teeth, this is your run. Subscribe, share with a friend who's ready to sage the Benz, and drop your fix for Atlanta in the comments. Who should hold the whistle, and who should hand it over?Support the show

Sermon Summary: “Jesus the Cornerstone” (Mark 12:10–11) “‘The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone; the Lord has done this, and it is marvelous in our eyes.'” — Mark 12:10–11 Introduction: A Title That Tells a Story Coleton opened by recalling a childhood nickname—“The Master of Disaster”—a title that summed up his habit of breaking things and then turning to his brother's belongings for replacements. He explained how nicknames often tell us something true about who a person is. In this passage, Jesus gives Himself a title drawn from Psalm 118—the Cornerstone. This name, Coleton explained, reveals how Jesus wants to operate in our lives: as the foundation and guide upon which everything else depends. Coleton invited the church to explore two key characteristics of a cornerstone—and how they reveal what Jesus wants to be for us. 1. The Cornerstone Was the First Stone Laid A cornerstone was always the first and most important stone in ancient construction. It determined the direction, shape, and alignment of every other stone that followed. Builders would measure every subsequent piece against it. “Whatever the cornerstone looked like, the other stones would look like.” Coleton said that's what Jesus wants to be for us: the one who shapes our lives, directs our paths, and forms our character. He's not trying to control us—He's trying to lead and form us into His likeness. Coleton then painted a vivid contrast between our human tendencies and Christ's character: We Are Jesus Is Impatient Long-suffering Selfish Selfless Proud Humble Discontent Trusting Fearful Courageous Worried Peaceful Busy & stressed Unhurried Afraid of rejection Secure in the Father's love Lustful Self-controlled Unforgiving Infinitely forgiving Empty Full and overflowing “The virtues we're searching for,” Coleton said, “are not found apart from Him—they are found in Him.” Therefore, whatever or whoever is your cornerstone will shape your life into its image. Reflection Questions Coleton Posed: What is shaping your anger, your spending, your relationships? Who decides how you treat your spouse, raise your kids, or forgive others? What dictates your habits—Jesus or your desires? Coleton challenged listeners: If Jesus isn't the one shaping your decisions, then something else is. That “something else” has become your cornerstone. 2. The Cornerstone Was the Strongest Stone The cornerstone wasn't just first—it was also the strongest. It had to bear the weight of the entire structure and withstand storms. If it crumbled, the whole building collapsed. Coleton used this to illustrate why Jesus is the only foundation that won't fail: “See, I lay a stone in Zion, a tested stone, a precious cornerstone for a sure foundation; the one who relies on it will never be shaken.” — Isaiah 28:16 Everything else in life—success, relationships, money, career, beauty, reputation—is fragile. If those things fall apart, so will we. But Jesus is the only foundation that can never be shaken. Coleton shared personally about how, early in his life, his relationship with Rainey was his cornerstone. When things were good, he felt secure. When they weren't, he was crushed. Later, as a pastor, his cornerstone often shifted to his church's success or how well his sermon went. When those things faltered, his peace faltered too. He said, “I can turn even my ministry into my cornerstone instead of Jesus.” To reorient his heart, Coleton often stares at Rembrandt's painting “Christ in the Storm on the Sea of Galilee.”  He sees himself among the disciples, frantically trying to steady the ship—the church—while Jesus calmly rests amid chaos. Then he remembers Jesus' question: “Why are you so afraid?” (Mark 4:40) Coleton said, “If He's not worried, why should I be? If He's not shaken, why should I be?” That truth reshapes everything. He invited listeners to apply that same faith to their own circumstances: If your job is shaking—Jesus still promises to provide. If the government is shaking—Jesus still reigns. If your children are struggling—Jesus loves them more than you do. If your health is declining—Jesus has already conquered death. Coleton said, “Whatever shakes your life reveals your cornerstone.”  But when Jesus is your cornerstone, even the fiercest storm can't topple your soul. 3. How to Make Jesus Your Cornerstone Coleton closed by teaching from Matthew 7:24–27, where Jesus says that the wise builder is the one who hears His words and puts them into practice. “Everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock… The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew… yet it did not fall.” Simply calling Jesus “Lord” isn't enough. Obedience is what builds a life on Him. Coleton said, “There are people walking around calling Jesus their cornerstone while not doing what He says—and then wondering why their life is falling apart. It's not the cornerstone's fault.” He illustrated this with his son Teddy's LEGO set. Without following the instructions, the pieces might form something, but not what it was designed to be. Likewise, our lives can “look like something” without being what God designed. To make Jesus your cornerstone: Put His words into practice.  Don't just listen—live them. Spend more time with Him.  “You become like who you're around.” The more time you spend with Jesus—in Scripture, prayer, and reflection—the more you'll begin to resemble Him. Make alignment adjustments.  When the Spirit convicts you of areas where Jesus isn't shaping you, repent. Realignment isn't punishment—it's protection. He ended with a simple call: Make Jesus your cornerstone—because only He can carry the weight of your life. Discussion Questions What are some “cornerstones” that have shaped your decisions, emotions, or identity besides Jesus? How does Jesus being the first and strongest stone reshape your understanding of what it means to follow Him daily? When was the last time your life felt like it was “shaking”? What did that reveal about your foundation? What's one area of your life where you need to realign with Jesus' words this week? What habits or practices could help you spend more time with Jesus so that your life increasingly reflects His image? Key Takeaway: Your life will be shaped by whatever your cornerstone is. Only Jesus can bear that weight and make your life stand firm.  

The Transport Minister has been urged to make funding available for the improvement of a road described as "the main access point to the Cliffs of Moher". Ennistymon Senator Martin Conway is calling for the N85 Realignment Project between Ennis and Inagh to be included in the department's 2026 funding programme. A motion tabled by local Fianna Fáil Councillor Shane Talty seeking the project's recommencement as well as the allocation of the necessary funding received unanimous support at the most recent meeting of Clare County Council. Speaking in the Seanad, Senator Conway says the upgrade works are long overdue.

HEADLINE: UK Political Realignment and the Migration Crisis GUEST NAME: Joseph Sternberg SUMMARY:Joseph Sternberg discusses the UK's political realignment following the Conservative Party's 14-year misrule. Kemi Badenoch aims to revive the Tories with Thatcherite economic policies and a strong stance on welfare reform, prioritizing work and fairness. However, the Tories lack credibility on the highly controversial issue of illegal immigration across the English Channel, allowing Nigel Farage's Reform party to gain ground. The migration problem remains intractable due to high costs and lack of political incentive. 1880

This week, Jeff Clark, former Forrester Research Director, and our host Ian Truscott return to Michael D. Watkins' STARS model and explore what each business situation means for marketing leaders.  STARS is an acronym for the five common situations marketing leaders may find themselves moving into: Startup, Turnaround, Accelerated growth, Realignment, and Sustaining success.  In his book The First 90 Days, which is obviously focused on executives entering a business, rather than specifically a marketing leader, Watkins describes these as the characteristics and challenges of, respectively, launching a venture or project; saving a business or initiative that's in serious trouble; dealing with rapid expansion; reenergizing a once-leading company that's now facing problems; and following in the footsteps of a highly regarded leader with a strong legacy of success. As always, we welcome your feedback. If you have a suggestion for a topic that's hot for you that we should discuss, please get in touch using the links below.

Marshall and Frank discuss why they were attracted to the idea of a "realignment" before it was cool and obvious, why the breakdown of parties and institutions is fundamentally about a "crisis of legitimacy," the importance of building an ideological movement versus focusing on political parties, and why the abundance agenda, especially in its less wonky versions, is a useful vehicle for forcing institutions to answer the "what are we trying to do here," question. 

Send us a textThe third most popular episode of 2025 was - Realignment.If you've been feeling distracted, discouraged, or disconnected from your original purpose, this episode is for you. We'll walk through the signs that you've drifted from your calling, explore Scripture-based encouragement from Proverbs 3:5–6 and Colossians 3:23, and talk about how to rebuild purpose-driven habits that bring clarity and peace.You'll also hear part of my own story—how God called me into this work and how I've had to lay down and pick up different parts of my business over time, always seeking His direction.✨ Whether you're overwhelmed, chasing trends, or second-guessing your path, today's episode will remind you that you're not alone—and it's never too late to realign with God's purpose for your business.

What if the real reason you feel stuck isn't because you're doing the wrong things—but because you're doing them out of alignment? In this honest, soul-stirring conversation between two friends,  , you'll hear a host Lisa McGuire sits down with Elaine Acker, an accomplished journalist, publisher, and entrepreneur turned college English professor. On paper, Elaine had it all. But under the surface, something was missing. When Lisa first invited Elaine to join her Freedom Reset program, Elaine hesitated. Like many of us, she felt like working on herself was a luxury she hadn't earned. Too much to do. Too many people were depending on her. Not the right time. But in the space between “I'm too busy” and “What if I love it?", Elaine found her answer. Within just six weeks of saying “yes,” she discovered a forgotten passion for teaching, applied for a position that aligned with her gifts, and accepted a job offer that would reshape her life. And the best part is she didn't burn it all down. She simply realigned. People around her noticed the difference and commented about how happy she appeared to be. This episode is a gentle nudge for those who are secretly craving change but don't know where to begin. You don't need a full-blown reinvention. You just need to stop betraying the part of you that knows something is missing. What You'll Discover in This Episode: On Getting Started: Why working on yourself isn't selfish—it's the most strategic thing you can do. The hesitation Elaine felt, and the unexpected moment that changed her mind. On the Realignment Process: The difference between reinvention and realignment—and why that distinction matters. What it feels like to make decisions from clarity instead of fear.

Authenticity has become a buzzword—so overused it's at risk of losing its meaning. But what if we told you that true authenticity isn't about oversharing, transparency, or visibility? In this episode, Lisa McGuire takes us back to the essence of what authenticity really is: coherence—the alignment between your inner truth and your outer expression. With heartfelt storytelling, real-world micro-practices, and the kind of clarity that cuts through the noise, Lisa helps high-achieving leaders, entrepreneurs, and creatives step out of performance mode and into embodied presence. If you've ever felt like you're showing up but not being felt, this conversation is your call back to truth. This episode isn't a pep talk—it's a transformation moment. You'll learn how coherence shortens sales cycles, creates emotional resonance, and energetically shifts every room you walk into. Whether you're leading a business or redefining your voice, you'll get a framework that will help you shed the mask and show up with unshakable clarity. Key Takeaways: Authenticity is not vulnerability, transparency, exposure, or visibility Performance drains energy; presence connects and invites trust. Presence is a practiced skill, not a personality trait. Your clearest signal is the truth of who you are. Authenticity polarizes—standing in truth either invites people in or filters them out.

Marshall and Giselle discuss Abundance Network's newly announced Abundance Elected Network, a community of local elected officials in city and county government interested in abundance and state capacity. They discuss why the local government version of the abundance discourse is completely different than the national level, think tank and pundit debate, how local officials are operationalizing abundance ideas, and what an outcomes-centered politics could look like.  

High tibial osteotomy (HTO) is a limb realignment surgery which is intended for people who have medial compartment osteoarthritis (OA), but are not suitable candidates for total knee replacement due to younger age, less severe disease and greater physical demands. The aim of HTO is to correct alignment, thereby shifting load away from the more involved knee compartment and limit progression of knee OA.On this week's episode of Joint Action, we are joined by Dr Trevor Birmingham and Dr David Parker to discuss high tibial osteotomy surgery, who it is suitable for and the risks involved.Professor Trevor Birmingham is a physiotherapist and Canada Research Chair in Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation at the University of Western Ontario in London, Canada. He leads research on musculoskeletal health, often combining clinical outcomes with biomechanical, imaging and biological measures in cohort studies and randomized trials. He co-directs the Wolf Orthopaedic Biomechanics Lab at the Fowler Kennedy Sport Medicine Clinic and is a founding member of the Bone and Joint Institute and the Collaborative Graduate Training Program in Musculoskeletal Health Research at Western University. Dr David Parker is an experienced orthopaedic knee specialist and co-founder of the Sydney Orthopaedic Research Institute (SORI). He is passionate about sport and is actively involved with international orthopaedic and sports medicine organisations and has extensive experience with athletes of all levels from recreational to elite. Dr Parker has authored over 100 peer-reviewed publications and many textbook chapters and has been awarded the Australian Orthopaedic Association Prize for Research.

I have a book launching into the world in just 6 weeks! And in dedication to this, I decided to create a 6-part podcast series called The Consistency Code Diaries: The Stories, Science and Strategies Behind the Book. In this series, I will be sharing behind-the-scenes content about how this book came into the world and what you can expect from it. In this kickoff episode, I'll pull back the curtain on my five-year journey to create The Consistency Code. You'll discover the real-world observations that sparked this work and the personal consistency struggles that made me the perfect imperfect person to write it. This episode offers a unique glimpse into: The pattern of frustration I noticed across hundreds of midlife women My own embarrassing consistency failures and how they became valuable research The “aha moment” that finally allowed me to complete this work after years of false starts … and so much more! Whether you're curious about the book or already committed to showing up more consistently for yourself, this heartfelt episode connects the dots between my professional observations and personal experience to explain why The Consistency Code is more than just another book—it's a revolution in how midlife women approach behavior change and how they can put their healthiest and happiest years ahead of them, rather than behind them. You can listen here. Have a listen and be sure to share it with another woman who might benefit from the message.

Realignment Newsletter: https://therealignment.substack.com/Realignment Bookshop: https://bookshop.org/shop/therealignmentEmail the Show: realignmentpod@gmail.comDoug Most, author of Launching Liberty: The Epic Race to Build the Ships That Took America to War, joins The Realignment. Marshall and Doug discuss the untold story of the construction of Liberty Ships, the massive cargo vessels that carried tanks, jeeps, food, and ammunition to allied forces in World War II. The conversation explores the parallels between World War II problem-solving and contemporary debates about infrastructure, industrial policy, and the private sector's role in government, the importance of bringing a "problem-solving" approach to government, and how the pragmatic choice of emphasizing "ugly duckling" ships over Hitler's obsession with engineering marvels made all the difference.

GDP Script/ Top Stories for September 25th Publish Date: September 25th PRE-ROLL: From the BG AD Group Studio Welcome to the Gwinnett Daily Post Podcast. Today is Thursday, September 25th and Happy birthday to Michael Douglas I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are your top stories presented by KIA Mall of Georgia. Lilburn, Gwinnett leaders say road realignment project will improve safety Gwinnett Library accepting applications for new Incubator Program Gwinnett County communications department earns national awards Plus, Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on sodas All of this and more is coming up on the Gwinnett Daily Post podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen daily and subscribe! Break 1: Ingles Markets 4 STORY 1: Lilburn, Gwinnett leaders say road realignment project will improve safety For years, Lilburn Mayor Johnny Crist worried about that chaotic stretch of Lawrenceville Highway near Bryson Park. Three misaligned intersections—Hood Road, Lilburn School Road, and the park entrance—crammed into a quarter-mile, with no traffic lights. Drivers dodging school buses, cars turning every which way. “It was an accident waiting to happen,” Crist said. “I prayed we’d avoid fatalities.” This week, his prayers were answered. Officials cut the ribbon on a $4.3 million project: a sleek new roundabout that finally aligns the roads. Crist? Just relieved it’s done. STORY 2: Gwinnett Library accepting applications for new Incubator Program The Gwinnett County Public Library is now taking applications for its New Start Entrepreneurship Incubator (NSEI)—a program that’s changing lives, one business idea at a time. Focused on helping formerly incarcerated individuals, NSEI offers in-person classes, online coursework, and mentorship to guide participants through the tricky world of starting a business. Since launching in 2021 with Google’s support, the program has graduated 42 entrepreneurs. It all ends with Launchpad, where participants pitch their dreams—and some even win funding. STORY 3: Gwinnett County communications department earns national awards  Gwinnett County’s communications team just snagged some serious national recognition, taking home multiple Savvy Awards from 3CMA (City-County Communications and Marketing Association). These awards celebrate the best in local government storytelling, education, and community engagement—and Gwinnett’s work clearly stood out. Top honors? First place for their “Go Green” glass recycling campaign and Upfront Gwinnett: The Hidden Homeless program. They also earned nods for their transit referendum social media campaign and videos on the county budget and parks. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows.

We’ll be right back Break 2: 07.14.22 KIA MOG STORY 4: Gwinnett County Public Schools Announces Local Teachers of the Year Gwinnett County Public Schools just announced its local Teachers of the Year, kicking off the journey to crown the 2027 district-wide winner. Interim Superintendent Dr. Al Taylor praised the honorees, saying, “These educators don’t just teach—they inspire, care, and transform lives. Their impact ripples far beyond the classroom.” The process? It’s no small feat. Teachers are nominated by peers, applications are reviewed, and semifinalists are chosen. By January, one will rise as the district’s top teacher. From kindergarten classrooms to high school labs, these teachers represent the heart of education. Their passion? It’s what keeps Gwinnett’s schools thriving. STORY 5: Peachtree Corners starting over on policing survey Peachtree Corners is hitting reset on its survey about creating a city police department, but let’s just say—it’s not going to be an easy sell. City Manager Brian Johnson admitted the first survey, which ran briefly this summer, was flawed. “I didn’t have a professional review it,” he said. “The questions were too simple.” And the results? Not great. About 70% of respondents opposed the idea. The proposed department would cost $12.8 million annually—more than the $9.4 million currently paid to Gwinnett County for police services. That means higher taxes for residents, which has many people saying, “No thanks.” The debate? Far from over.

Marshall and Nancy discuss the three big ideas-focused conferences in DC in September: The new right National Conservatism Conference, Abundance 2025, and this week's Anti-Monopoly Summit. They cover the competing stories and ideas discussed at these events, the degree to which each convening contradicts the others, the difficult task of holding bipartisan gatherings during a time of polarization and factionalism, and how politicians can use ideas to build their political brands during an era of anti-establishment and voter skepticism.

Marshall and Danielle discuss the right's multi-decade project of participatory, oppositional media, and why the effort culminated in President Trump's 2024 election victory. They unfavorably contrast the center-left's post-2024 response, with its focus on top-down marketing, "ideas" disconnected from a broader story and understanding of the country, highlight the importance of storytelling when it comes to creating the "common sense" that oppositional movements require, and compare and contrast the worldviews and stories of the left, right, and center.

Must-Read on Political Violence in America: Days of Rage: America's Radical Underground, the FBI, and the Forgotten Age of Revolutionary ViolenceJerusalem Demsas in The Argument on Abundance vs. National Conservatism: A Tale of Two Ballrooms Steve Teles on "The Varieties of Abundance: Varieties of Abundance - Niskanen CenterNew Cascadian Abundance Substack: What is Cascadian Abundance? - by Kelly JiangRealignment Newsletter: https://therealignment.substack.com/Realignment Bookshop: https://bookshop.org/shop/therealignmentEmail the Show: realignmentpod@gmail.comSteve Teles, Niskanen Senior Fellow and Johns Hopkins University Professor, returns to The Realignment. After a brief note on Charlie Kirk's assassination yesterday in Utah, Marshall and Steve discuss their takeaways from last week's Abundance 2025 Conference in DC, tensions between the left-liberal wings of the Abundance project and the right-wing, "Dark Abundance" crew, the contrast between the dueling Abundance and National Conservatism conferences, and where the broader effort goes next after the previous week's events.

Then the schools involved brought some of them back … only to let them wither again. Why does this happen, and are some of the ongoing changes to the sport encouraging or discouraging teams to schedule more of these games? Now that the Border War is back and the Backyard Brawl is about to play what might be its last game in a while (after a previous long pause), it's a good time to try to figure it out. Rodger Sherman joins Alex and Richard for a discussion about it.Producer: Anthony Vito

Varieties of Abundance: https://www.niskanencenter.org/abundance-varieties/PDF Version: https://www.niskanencenter.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Varieties-of-Abundance.pdfRealignment Newsletter: https://therealignment.substack.com/Realignment Bookshop: https://bookshop.org/shop/therealignmentEmail the Show: realignmentpod@gmail.comSteve Teles, Senior Fellow at the Niskanen Center, returns to The Realignment. Ahead of next week's 2025 Abundance in DC, Marshall and Steve discuss his new Niskanen Center paper on "The Varieties of Abundance." In Steve's telling, despite broad agreement within the Abundance movement on the need to increase supply, challenge existing incumbents who benefit from scarcity, and the critical role of enhanced state capacity in addressing America's challenges, there are existing and potential varieties of Abundance across the ideological and geographic spectrums. Just as the late 19th- and early 20th-century Progressive Movement held a shared critique of the industrial-era American state, different actors took the project in different directions. Theodore Roosevelt, Herbert Hoover, and Woodrow Wilson were all progressives, but operated in separate camps. In Steve's telling, abundance is already operating accordingly. In the paper, he identifies six varieties of Abundance: Red Plenty, Cascadian Abundance, Liberal Abundance, Moderate-Abundance Synthesis, Abundance Dynamism, and Dark Abundance. The aim of the paper is not to be overly inside-baseball, but to offer readers and listeners a framework for understanding the diversity of actors, institutions, and ideologies that have positively engaged with the Abundance framework.
