Together, they dive deep into the unique experience of their generation, exploring how "latchkey kids" are now navigating the challenges of aging and health.Ethan and Lisa bond over their shared history, discussing how the explosion of processed food in the 1980s shaped their early habits and left them to figure out wellness later in life. Lisa opens up about her own transformation, detailing her 170-pound weight loss and the reality of maintaining it while dealing with loose skin and the physical limitations that come with getting older. They discuss the importance of making fitness fun, using movie montage playlists to stay motivated, and why perfection is not the goal.The conversation touches on the nostalgia of fast food culture, the judgment surrounding diet choices, and why it is crucial to reject the idea that you have missed the boat on getting healthy.For more insights and updates on health, wellness, and Ethan's personal journey, be sure to sign up for his newsletter here: https://ethansuplee.substack.com/subscribeSHOW HIGHLIGHTS00:00 Intro and Welcome00:39 The Gen X Identity Crisis02:07 The Wealth Transfer Myth03:22 The First Generation of Processed Food05:37 Starting Health Journeys Later in Life07:19 The Power of the Perfect Workout Playlist10:31 Training Montages and Movie Nostalgia13:17 Adapting Workouts to Busy Schedules15:17 The Realities of Aging and Mobility17:51 Fast Food Nostalgia and Marketing Collabs20:25 The Judgment of Food Choices25:18 How Independence Fueled Bad Habits29:51 There Is No Finish Line32:05 Dealing with Loose Skin and Surgery37:06 Swimwear Anxiety and Body Image38:29 Generational Food Pyramids41:18 The Politics of Health and Food44:23 Dealing with Public Disappointment After Weight Loss47:43 Navigating Career Identity Post-Weight Loss49:03 The Gen X Approach to Plastic Surgery Hosted on Acast.

Eugenia Rainey is our guest to discuss the African diaspora religion of Santeria. Rainey is associate professor William & Mary Rainey where she is a cultural anthropologist who studies religion as a negotiated process. She focuses on this process at the intersection of Lucumí (also referred to as La Regla de Ochá or Santería) and medicine in south Florida. Through examining devotees' experiences and perceptions of the medical encounter, and being well grounded in religious practice, she seeks to better understand how the healthcare infrastructure impacts constructions of race and lived religion, as well as how African Diaspora religions in the US support the healthcare needs of devotees and the healthcare infrastructure.

The Joint Readiness Training Center is pleased to present the one-hundredth-and-eighteenth episode to air on ‘The Crucible - The JRTC Experience.' Hosted by the Senior Enlisted Medical Advisor and Role II Observer-Coach-Trainer for the Task Force Sustainment (BSB / CSSB), MSG Timothy Sargent on behalf of the Commander of Ops Group (COG). Today's guests are all combat medicine professionals across the JRTC. SFC William Deutsch is the Senior Medical OCT with TF-3 (IN BN), SFC Robert Schimmelpfenneg is the Medical Advisor and Role II OCT with TF Sustainment (BSB / CSSB), and SFC Anthony Norris is the Senior Medical OCT with Live Fire Division. This episode dives deep into combat medicine at the tactical small-unit level, focusing on what 68W medics truly face in a large-scale combat operations environment. The discussion highlights how today's medics arrive from Basic Combat Training and Advanced Individual Training with significantly more clinical capability: whole blood transfusions, chest tubes, finger thoracotomies, FAST exams, etc. Yet often lose proficiency once they reach their units due to lack of repetitions, limited clinical exposure, and competing taskings like motor-pool duties and gate guard. The panel emphasizes the widening gap between what new medics learn in the schoolhouse and what line units actually reinforce day to day. Just as importantly, the episode stresses that modern LSCO demands a return to mastery of basics: triage under mass-casualty conditions, reassessments, deliberate casualty collection point (CCP) management, documentation, and base-level soldier tasks such as security, dispersion, movement, and survivability. We routinely observe high-casualties at JRTC, often 60–80 casualties at once and hundreds per rotation. Poor triage and poor soldier-skill fundamentals, not lack of “sexy medicine,” are the leading causes of died-of-wounds outcomes. The episode also examines how units can better sustain medical readiness during home-station training. Leaders discuss integrating medics into ER rotations, EMS ride-alongs, sick-call operations, and realistic trauma/medical lanes that reinforce both prolonged field care and everyday DMBI cases. They argue that NCOs must reclaim ownership of training through proper DTMS programming, use of existing doctrinal resources, and deliberate linkage to mission-essential tasks. The conversation closes on three high-value priorities for the future fight: deliberate triage, accurate/documented patient care, and competent CCP & CASEVAC execution—all grounded in disciplined soldiering, not just advanced interventions. Ultimately, the episode makes clear that on the LSCO battlefield, combat medics must be clinicians, communicators, and soldiers, capable of saving lives while enabling commanders to maintain combat power forward.

Store digitization promises to transform retail operations, but most retailers struggle to move beyond pilots and buzzwords. In this Omni Talk Ask An Expert episode, hosts Chris Walton and Anne Mezzenga sit down with Troy Siwek (General Manager of gStore at GreyOrange) to reveal what actually works when digitizing physical stores. Learn how digital twins are evolving from concept to operational reality, why unified platforms matter more than individual point solutions, and how to cut through the hype around retail AI. Drawing from GreyOrange's 40,000+ technology deployments, Troy shares hard-earned lessons about RFID integration, computer vision evaluation, robotics orchestration, and organizational readiness. Key topics covered: • What store digitization actually means: bridging the physical-digital customer knowledge gap • Digital twins as operational "mirrors" that surface real-time insights for associates and executives • How to evaluate computer vision vendors based on what they actually specialize in • Why most retailers should partner for core digitization tech rather than build in-house • RFID inventory accuracy reducing store tasks from a week to 18 minutes • The organizational shift: who owns store digitization across CTO, CIO, and store ops teams • How excessive decision-making processes kill retail innovation speed • When to pilot, when to scale, and when to cut failing technology experiments Whether you're building your 2026 technology roadmap or trying to scale existing store digitization pilots, this conversation provides actionable insights to help you avoid costly mistakes, accelerate decision-making, and deliver measurable improvements for store associates.

In the final episode of 2025, Kyle sits down with someone who has been woven into her UX journey for nearly two decades: Amy Heymans — founder of Mad*Pow, founder of Beneficent, and co-founder of the Dignified Futures Conference.Amy and Kyle first met in 2006, when Mad*Pow was just a few people in a small Portsmouth, NH office. Over the next 13 years, Amy grew the agency into a nationally respected 70+ person consultancy known for its exceptional design work and its influential events, including HXD, the Center for Health Experience Design, and the Financial Experience Design Conference.But this conversation goes far deeper than Mad*Pow's rise.In 2019, Mad*Pow was acquired — the “dream scenario” for many agency founders. Amy shares openly what that experience was really like: the financial realities behind acquisitions, the emotional complexity of letting go of her company, the personal circumstances that shaped the outcome, and the surprising truth that the big exit doesn't always look like the fantasy many consultants imagine.After leaving Mad*Pow, Amy stepped into a prestigious role as Chief Design Officer at UnitedHealthcare, navigating an enormous 400,000-person organization. She talks candidly about why the move felt right, why it ultimately didn't align with her values, and how she knew it was time to walk away.Today, Amy is the founder of Beneficent, where she focuses on systems thinking, futures design, and complex problem-solving across health, finance, and the public sector. She also co-leads the Dignified Futures Conference, a gathering dedicated to reimagining systems for social impact — and she shares what inspired it and how designers, policymakers, and innovators can get involved.This episode covers:How Mad*Pow really beganThe messy truth behind scaling a design agencyThe realities of selling a firm — financially, emotionally, and personallyWhy Amy returned to corporate — and why she leftHow she's building Beneficent differently from Mad*PowHow ADHD shows up in her work as both a challenge and superpowerThe future of UX consulting in the age of AI and speculative foresightPractical advice for landing big clients and navigating uncertaintyThis is one of the most candid conversations ever aired on The UX Consultants Lounge — a deep, honest look at success, identity, reinvention, and the realities of leading a UX career across decades of change.Connect with Us:Host: Kyle Soucy | Usable Interface | Linkedin Guest: Amy Heymans | Beneficient Design | Linkedin- - - - -Links and Resources Mentioned:Dignified Futures Conference: https://www.designfordignity.com/Submit a question or story: Have a question or topic that you'd like us to cover in a future episode and/or want to share an anonymous consulting story?

In Episode 1114 of The Clay Edwards Show, host Clay Edwards explores why Democrats "hate high testosterone men," framing testosterone as their "kryptonite" based on scientific studies and cultural observations. He cites research showing that men with higher baseline testosterone levels tend to lean conservative or Republican, with weakly affiliated Democrats having about 19% higher testosterone than strong party loyalists—suggesting high-T individuals biologically drift away from progressive ideals. Administering testosterone can induce a "red shift," improving mood and pushing preferences toward Republican views, as seen in examples like co-host Sean Yurtkuran becoming more conservative with higher T levels. Edwards argues Democrats are losing young men (only 27% view the party positively vs. 43% for Republicans), as high-T traits like grit, independence, assertiveness, and traditional roles clash with the party's emphasis on "inclusive masculinity" and criticism of "toxic masculinity"—which he sees as code for hating behaviors like competitiveness and stoicism. He ties this to election dynamics, where testosterone fluctuations influence reactions to wins/losses, and a "red pill" perspective: real women prefer high-T men, making low-T Democratic leaders appear weak and driving admirers rightward. Examples include high-T figures like Nick Fuentes and JD Vance embodying unfiltered masculinity that repels progressive conformity.

Come, John with me to the cosmos and engage heavenly realities
Hey Mama, Living in a world affected by sin means grief and loss is inevitable. As busy moms, we often do not allow ourselves time or space to properly grieve. Sometimes it is the demands of our current season of life, and other times we simply do not want to re-live moments we wish we could forget. Whether you are grieving the loss of a loved one, the loss of a season of life, or grieving the effects of sin in this world generally, I want to encourage you to seek the source of true peace. The brokenness that sin creates is the reason Christ came to pay the ultimate price for all sin on the cross, and then rise in victory over death in his resurrection. So how do you grieve during the holiday season when everyone expects you to feel merry and bright?Remember, it's okay to be sad on Christmas, and join me today as we re-visit 3 realities of grief, plus 3 ways to get through them. For His Glory, Christen I would love to hear from you! >>Leave a Review >>Connect with me: Sign Up for Manage In The Moment Coaching Call: https://bit.ly/ManageStressInTheMoment Email me : naturalwellnessforbusymoms@gmail.com Sign Up to Become an Insider: https://bit.ly/naturalwellnessinsider Join Our FREE Facebook Community:https://www.facebook.com/groups/1789472588229094 >>Find Related Products Here: https://bit.ly/m/Natural-Wellness-for-Busy-Moms >> These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.

"Don't give up the ship." "The Star-Spangled Banner." "Old Hickory." The Battle of New Orleans.The War of 1812 gave us some of America's most enduring symbols and phrases. But did it actually change anything? The treaty that ended it resolved almost nothing. The boundaries stayed the same. Impressment wasn't even mentioned. And the greatest American victory came after the war was technically over.So why does this "Second War of Independence" matter? Was it a pointless conflict that nearly destroyed a fragile young nation? Or the crucible that finally transformed thirteen squabbling former colonies into something that felt like a country?Join us as we dig into the contradictions, debate the consequences, and explore what the War of 1812 actually accomplished - or didn't. From the myths we tell ourselves to the realities on the ground, from Baltimore's ramparts to New Orleans' muddy fields, we're questioning everything about America's most misunderstood war. And before we're done, we'll grapple with something deeper: the ideals this nation was founded on - and how those very same ideals, however imperfectly realized, eventually gave us the tools to right some of our gravest wrongs.

When Beav Brodie was handed his wife's purple diaper bag to carry around town, he knew something had to change. As a tattooed, custom car-building dad, that bag just didn't fit. So he did what any problem-solver would do—he grabbed his sewing machine and made his own. That side project turned into Tactical Baby Gear, a thriving eCommerce brand that's become the go-to for dads who want gear that's as functional as it is badass. In this episode, Beav shares his journey from knowing absolutely nothing about eCommerce (including what a UPC code was) to building a product line that customers trust and keep coming back for. He also pulls back the curtain on navigating the chaos of 2025—from Meta auction issues to tariff headwinds—and why he's betting big on Amazon and YouTube as his growth channels for the year ahead.—Sponsored by OMG Commerce - go to (https://www.omgcommerce.com/contact) and request your FREE strategy session today!—Chapters: (00:00) Opening & Introducing Beav Brodie(04:45) 2025 Headwinds, Tariffs & Personal Life Challenges(08:45) Becoming a Real Operator: Systems, SOPs & Founder Mindset Shifts(12:00) Origin Story: From Custom Cars to Tactical Baby Gear(17:00) Manufacturing Realities: COVID, Price Creep & Moving Abroad(24:38) Recover hidden Amazon revenue with Threecolts(25:33) Meta Constraints & The Founder Bottleneck in Content(29:30) UGC, Influencers & Why Authenticity Beats “Pretty” Content(36:25) Offers, Acquisition & The Realities of Low-Repeat Categories(42:10) Brand vs Discounts: Community, Trust & True LTV(47:00) Channel Expansion & Product Philosophy(50:19) PostPilot: Direct mail that prints money.—Connect With Brett: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/thebrettcurry/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@omgcommerce Website: https://www.omgcommerce.com/ Request a Free Strategy Session: https://www.omgcommerce.com/contact Relevant Links:Tactical Baby Gear: https://tacticalbabygear.comSponsor Offer | Threecolts: http://threecolts.comSponsor Offer | PostPilot: http://postpilot.com/Past guests on eCommerce Evolution include Ezra Firestone, Steve Chou, Drew Sanocki, Jacques Spitzer, Jeremy Horowitz, Ryan Moran, Sean Frank, Andrew Youderian, Ryan McKenzie, Joseph Wilkins, Cody Wittick, Miki Agrawal, Justin Brooke, Nish Samantray, Kurt Elster, John Parkes, Chris Mercer, Rabah Rahil, Bear Handlon, JC Hite, Frederick Vallaeys, Preston Rutherford, Anthony Mink, Bill D'Allessandro, Stephane Colleu, Jeff Oxford, Bryan Porter and more

On this episode of Engage, First Officer Ryan Argenta welcomes First Officer Bryan Patchen, Chair of the Delta MEC's Aviation Security Committee and recent Aviation Security Award recipient, for a straight-talk briefing on the security issues pilots face every day. We cover what's actually happening with KCM (and why the “random” feels constant), how to handle screening disagreements professionally (what to say, who to ask for, and what to document), and the practical risks on international layovers - from aggressive pat-downs to theft tactics targeting watches and phones. Bryan shares actionable steps that keep crews out of trouble: keep flight gear only for flying, get names/badge numbers when reporting, know when to withdraw consent and elevate to a supervisor, and use safety tools like FACTAL and the State Department's STEP enrollment form for proximity alerts and emergency news. We also touch on FFDO training status and secondary barriers progress. The goal isn't fear - it's awareness, professionalism, and smart habits so everyone gets home safe.
In this episode of the Fearless Mindset Podcast, we dive into the nuances and challenges of the Executive Protection (EP) field. The discussion covers the importance of having a clear plan, the necessity of execution in business, and the distinction between W2 and 10-99 employment in EP. The guests share their personal experiences and the inherent instability in the industry due to client indecisiveness and financial hesitations. They emphasize the value of trust and persistence in building business relationships and highlight the benefits of running a boutique agency. The conversation also delves into generational differences in job satisfaction and the importance of process-oriented business strategies. Finally, they discuss the impact of networking events and the role of referrals in business growth.Key TakeawaysExecution is more important than ideas—success comes from acting, not just planning.Trust and relationships are foundational in business, but take time to build.The security/executive protection industry is challenging, with little stability and a need for constant hustle.Adaptability and having a clear plan are critical for business survival and growth.Most business growth comes from referrals and word of mouth, not just visibility.Notable Quotes"It all boils down to execution. The better you execute it or even just attempt to execute it, the easier it's gonna be.""Without the trust piece, you're just another company.""Business is hard. It's not for the faint of heart. Most of them fail in the first two years.""If I can save a veteran from committing suicide, it's worth it.

Series: Human Rights in Birth— Birth Options "Birth is a powerful moment of human life. It deserves the care that honors your rights, your choices, and your profound capacity for strength, trust, and pleasure." —Debra Pascali-Bonaro Ep 168 Description: Every birth tells a story, but too often those stories are shaped by fear, misinformation, or lack of choice. Respectful, informed, and pleasure-aware care can change the way we experience birth. Autonomy and knowledge are as vital as safety. In this episode, Debra shares insights from her recent travels to Japan and highlights a powerful open letter from UK midwives, showing how human rights in childbirth can transform care.
