Send a textLoneliness doesn't always look like an empty room; sometimes it's a full calendar and a hollow heart. We're naming that ache out loud and shining Scripture on the lies that make it worse. Starting with Psalm 142 and John 8, we trace those shame-filled thoughts to their real source, then build a simple filter to test every idea about worth and identity: if it contradicts God's Word, it's a lie. From there, we share raw stories—missed meetings that became a spiral, friendships that went surface or silent, and the sting of rejection that can rattle a man's sense of value.Reclaiming the Wild is back — April 24–26 at Abundant Blessings Farm (Stem, NC).

Dr. Emma Smith about how trauma, shame, and cultural conditioning can distort intimacy — and what it actually takes to reclaim pleasure, desire, and connection in an embodied, sustainable way. Throughout the conversation, Dr. Emma shares her journey from trauma therapy into sex therapy, and explains why healing doesn't end when symptoms disappear. Along the way, we explore how the nervous system prioritizes survival over pleasure, why many people lose touch with desire after trauma or chronic stress, and how cultural messages about "good" and "bad" sexuality create deep layers of shame that can disconnect us from our bodies and our relationships. Dr. Emma also offers powerful insights into what healing really looks like in practice: learning to recognize bodily signals of yes and no, cultivating curiosity instead of judgment, and rebuilding intimacy through small, accessible moments of pleasure. She explains how compassion toward ourselves opens the door to reclaiming desire, and how couples can shift from criticism and defensiveness into deeper connection by reconnecting with their own internal turn-on first. At its core, this conversation is a reminder that no matter where you're starting from, possibility exists — and reclaiming pleasure is not about fixing what's broken, but about returning to your humanity, your curiosity, and your capacity to experience aliveness. Better sex is a practice — and you can begin again anytime.

Many Latter-day Saint women feel some constraint when it comes to using our voices at church, but it can even be hard to express what we think, feel, and believe in our own homes or personal relationships. Writing down thoughts that don't fit neatly in the box and hitting publish can bring consequences, but once a woman begins to speak, she's likely to find the repercussions she feared were much bigger than the ones she'll actually face. In Episode 252, Susan and Cynthia are joined by writer and independent scholar Katie Ludlow Rich for a conversation about her personal journey to reclaim her voice. It's a story about one woman speaking up, framed within a larger exploration of Mormon women's collective voices as reflected in 50 Years of Exponent II.

Send a textSecrets don't just hide in the shadows at Scientology's international headquarters—they're baked into the rules. We open the door on life at Gold Base: the mail opened before you read it, the addresses laundered through Hollywood to disguise location, and an internet “filter” that blocks anything critical while flagging your clicks for review. From the first days on the EPF, autonomy is stripped away in favor of orders, and a snitch culture ensures everyone polices everyone else. The result is a sealed system where control feels normal and dissent looks dangerous.We dig into the question people ask most: why do members stay when they're unhappy? The answer stacks up fast: family inside, marriages on the base, jobs tied to Scientology employers, and years of indoctrination telling you anyone who doubts must be cut off. Add sunk costs and a fear of disconnection, and leaving can feel like losing your entire life overnight. We share the moment the façade cracked—visiting “booming” ideal orgs that were nearly empty—and how that gap between sales pitch and reality became impossible to ignore.This conversation goes beyond exposure; it's a guide to rebuilding. We talk through practical first steps for a safe exit—private communication lines, non‑Scientology employment, independent housing—and why no one should be bullied into staying or leaving. Reclaiming identity takes time, curiosity, and community: reading widely on trauma and recovery, questioning “ethics” narratives, and replacing fear with facts. We also separate myth from reality at the top, contrasting the image of principled leadership with stories of luxury, selective policy enforcement, and rewards for outside contractors while staff go without.There's real hope here. Membership is shrinking, public awareness is stronger than ever, and decompression times are shorter thanks to accessible information. People still inside are finding quiet channels to learn, plan, and step out on their terms. If you've wondered how control really works—or how to help someone find a way out—this episode lays out the mechanisms and the map.If this resonated, subscribe, share with someone who needs it, and leave a review.

"When you master your inner world, you stop reacting to life and start shaping it." What if the real key to manifestation has nothing to do with vision boards… and everything to do with where you place your focus? In this compelling episode of SoulTalk, Kute Blackson sits down with one of the most talked-about figures in personal development, Kevin Trudeau, for a bold and eye-opening conversation about power, attention, belief, and what it actually takes to create the life you want. This isn't another surface-level conversation about "think positive and hope." Instead, Kevin shares his perspective on the mechanics of manifestation; how your focus shapes your perception, how perception shapes your decisions, and how your decisions ultimately shape your destiny. Together, we explore the idea that the world outside may be noisy, chaotic, and unpredictable, but your ability to direct your attention is the ultimate leverage point. If you've ever wondered why some people seem to attract opportunity, wealth, influence, and momentum while others feel stuck reacting to circumstances, this episode offers a different lens. It invites you to stop giving your energy to distraction and start consciously investing it where it creates results. This conversation isn't about fear. It's about reclaiming agency. It's about understanding how your internal world your focus, your beliefs, your emotional state becomes the foundation of what shows up externally. If you're ready to sharpen your focus, think differently, and unlock a more intentional way of creating success, this episode will challenge you in all the right ways  and leave you asking bigger questions about what's truly possible. → Listen now and explore the deeper mechanics of focus, power, and manifestation.   TIMESTAMPS (00:02:24) – Focusing on your inner world as the only reality you truly control.

What if the person making your work life miserable isn't just difficult—but following a predictable pattern you were never taught to recognize? In this eye-opening episode of Legendary Leaders, host Cathleen O'Sullivan sits down with Lena Sisco—former military interrogator at Guantanamo Bay and expert in dark psychology—whose unflinching take on toxic workplaces will make you see that impossible boss in a completely different light.  Lena shares how she went from aspiring archaeologist to interrogating terror suspects, why her narcissistic boss threw a laptop across a C-suite meeting then got her fired while the company protected him, and why her neighbor's daughter stayed trapped in an abusive marriage for 10 years over an incident involving crackers. With striking honesty, she explains why she lived with anger for a year over that firing, why taking up physical space literally drops your stress hormones, and why kindness became her secret weapon in the interrogation room.  Together, Cathleen and Lena explore what manipulation actually looks like in daily interactions, why you cannot change someone with a personality disorder no matter how reasonable you are, and the hard truth about when systems protect bad behavior. This conversation is for anyone dealing with a boss who never gets held accountable, stuck doubting yourself in a toxic relationship, or ready to stop giving manipulative people free rent in your head—because sometimes the most powerful move isn't proving you can handle it, it's recognizing the pattern and walking away.   Episode Timeline: 00:08:10 Why she wrote The 13 Power Moves of Dark Psychology  00:14:04 What dark psychology actually is  00:22:14 The abuse cycle: fear, love bombing, and guilt trips  00:28:01 Her narcissistic boss threw a laptop in a C-suite meeting  00:32:38 Why she got fired for holding him accountable  00:40:55 Teaching empathy to a Marine Corps colonel  00:57:24 The physical shift that drops cortisol instantly  01:05:53 The SBIR feedback tool for accountability  01:12:42 Her first day at Guantanamo Bay  01:23:15 Why kindness became her interrogation superpower  01:33:50 Three accurate tells that someone is lying to you    Key Takeaway: You Can't Change a Narcissist—You Can Only Change How You Show Up: Personality disorders are in someone's DNA and neural pathways. No amount of reasoning, fairness, or empathy will change them. The only thing you control is whether you stay in that dynamic or protect yourself by setting boundaries and walking away.  Kindness Isn't Weakness—It's the Most Powerful Tool You Have: Lena's interrogation breakthrough came from taking off a detainee's handcuffs and offering tea, not from yelling or intimidation. Being kind to someone who's lying or manipulating you takes the strongest willpower—and it actually works because it disarms them while keeping you in control of the conversation.  Taking Up Physical Space Literally Drops Your Stress Hormones: When you uncross your arms, plant your feet, lift your chin, and open your palms, your cortisol drops and your confidence rises. Before any difficult conversation, reset your body first—because when you feel small physically, your whole demeanor gets smaller. Move your body, move your mind.  If Someone Can't Answer a Simple Yes or No Question, They're Probably Lying: Truthful people have no problem with direct answers. Liars dodge, embellish, and avoid committing because they can't take accountability. Watch for shoulder shrugs on definitive statements, head shakes that don't match their words, and rambling non-answers—these are the most accurate tells that someone isn't being honest with you.   About Lena Sisco: Lena Sisco is a communication and human behavior expert working with leaders and organizations navigating high-stakes conversations and complex decision-making. A former Department of Defense–certified military interrogator and Naval Human Intelligence Officer, Lena served during the Global War on Terror, conducting hundreds of interrogations that shaped her expertise in rapport-building, elicitation, and truth-seeking under pressure. She later founded The Congruency Group and Sector Intelligence, translating elite HUMINT tradecraft into practical tools for leadership, negotiation, and influence. Lena brings hard-won experience in reading behavior, managing uncertainty, and leading with clarity when the stakes are high. Today, she works with professionals who want to communicate with confidence and authority in moments that matter most.   Connect with Lena Sisco: Website: https://www.lenasisco.com/  Website: https://www.thecongruencygroup.com/  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lena-sisco-8a31b451  Book: https://www.lenasisco.com/books  TruthScan AI: https://www.thecongruencygroup.com/truthscanai    Connect with Cathleen O'Sullivan:  Business: https://cathleenosullivan.com/  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cathleen-osullivan/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/legendary_leaders_cathleenos/  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@LegendaryLeaderswithCathleenOS     FOLLOW LEGENDARY LEADERS ON APPLE, SPOTIFY OR WHEREVER YOU LISTEN TO YOUR PODCASTS.

In this powerful episode, I sit down with Vanessa Santos — former millionaire CEO, award-winning strategist, and transformational leader — to talk about burnout, hustle culture, and reclaiming pleasure after corporate success.Vanessa built multi-million-dollar companies, led in corporate America, and achieved the kind of success many women are taught to chase.

We talk about healing trauma, reconnecting with the body, feminine leadership, and building a life rooted in pleasure instead of pressure.This episode is about nervous system healing, embodiment, self-worth, and the courage to choose joy over performance.Listen now if you're ready to redefine success and reclaim the pleasure of being alive.

We are living in a time when cruelty is normalized, war is justified as inevitable, and violence is often explained away as simply “human nature.” But what if that story is wrong?On this episode of Nonviolence Radio, we speak with peace anthropologist Doug Fry about the evidence — archaeological, cross-cultural, and contemporary — that challenges the assumption that humans are wired for war. Drawing on decades of research, Fry explores peace systems, restraint, interdependence, and the ways societies have sustained nonviolence across history.If war had conditions that gave rise to it, then it is not destiny. And if peace has deeper roots in our human story than we've been taught, then reclaiming human sanity may begin with reclaiming the truth about who we are.As Fry reminds us, the task is not to debate whether change is possible — but to act:“I don't waste my time thinking whether this is possible or not. Take steps to try to get it done. I fail or I succeed. And if I fail, back to the drawing board. Try something else. Do it. Do it better. Do something different.”

Today, Jon and Becky sit down with Analía Weber, Development Director at The Family Center / La Familia, to explore a bold paradigm shift for the nonprofit sector. One that begins with how we speak about ourselves.Analia's journey into fundraising didn't follow a traditional path. A lifelong dancer and arts leader, she pivoted careers at 39 and stepped into nonprofit development with heart, courage, and a willingness to begin again. Now, less than four years later, she's not only the Director of Development for a thriving, holistic family support organization — she's chairing a regional nonprofit sector partnership and advocating for a 10-year movement to reposition nonprofits as trusted experts and essential community leaders.In this episode, you'll hear:Why the language we use about “donors,” “nonprofits,” and “doing more with less” shapes power dynamicsHow nonprofits can shift from being seen as supplemental to being recognized as experts at the decision-making tableThe mindset of begin again — and why failure is part of the workHow La Familia funds the whole family through holistic, community-centered designA dance-inspired framework for leadership: show up, pay attention, tell the truth, and don't get attached to the resultsIf you're a nonprofit leader navigating uncertainty, funding shifts, or systemic barriers, this episode is your reminder: you don't have to have it all figured out. You get to begin again. And the sector's transformation starts with us.Episode Highlights: From dancer to development leader (2:46)​Finding La Familia and community (4:05)​Inside La Familia's holistic mission (7:49)​Funding the whole family (10:15)​Fundraising with dignity and new language (12:20)​A 10-year paradigm shift for the sector (16:01)​“Begin again” as a leadership mindset (19:25)​Analia's Story of Philanthropy (26:00)Analia's One Good Thing: Compositional improvisation for everyday choices (26:34)Episode Shownotes: www.weareforgood.com/episode/685//Join the We Are For Good Community—completely free.Join fellow changemakers, share takeaways from this working session, and keep collaborating in a space built for connection, inspiration, and real impact: www.weareforgoodcommunity.com Say hi

Why do so many of us feel busy all day, yet struggle to point to the meaningful work we actually completed? In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I sit down with Tomás Dostal Freire, CIO of Miro, to unpack a challenge that quietly drains modern organizations. Tomás brings experience from companies like Google, Netflix, and Booking.com, and now leads both IT and business acceleration at Miro. His focus is simple but ambitious. Move beyond AI experimentation and rethink how work itself gets done. We explore new research revealing that for every hour of creative work, employees lose up to three hours to meetings, admin, emails, and maintenance tasks. That ratio is more than an inconvenience. It affects decision-making speed, employee satisfaction, and ultimately a company's ability to compete. Tomás argues that future candidates will choose employers based on how much unnecessary internal work they are expected to tolerate. In other words, reducing busy work is quickly becoming a talent strategy. One of the biggest culprits? Context switching. With dozens of browser tabs open and information scattered across tools, teams spend more time stitching together fragments than making decisions. Tomás describes how duplication of work, outdated systems, and a lack of shared context quietly erode momentum. AI, he believes, should not create more noise or another standalone tool. It needs to be embedded where collaboration already happens. We discuss the difference between single-player AI moments, where individuals use tools in isolation, and multiplayer AI collaboration, where shared context allows teams to move faster together. At Miro, this philosophy has shaped what they call an AI Innovation Workspace, a shared canvas where human insight and AI assistance coexist in real time. Tomás also shares practical advice for leaders who want to reclaim creative time. Start by identifying tasks you dislike doing that could easily be handled by someone junior. That list often reveals what AI can already automate. Then focus on building transferable skills like cognitive agility and first-principles thinking, rather than chasing every new tool. If you are wrestling with burnout, fragmented workflows, or wondering how AI can genuinely improve collaboration without overwhelming teams, this conversation offers a grounded, optimistic perspective. And yes, we even add a Beatles classic to the Spotify playlist along the way.

Send a textFeeling invisible is more common than most men admit, and the silence can be brutal when it happens in the very places meant to heal us. We open Psalm 142 and talk plainly about the sting of being overlooked, the pull toward bitterness, and the slow grind of isolation that wears down courage. From hard personal experiences to hard-won hope, we trace a path from raw lament to real refuge, where God's steady sight becomes the ground we stand on.Reclaiming the Wild is back — April 24–26 at Abundant Blessings Farm (Stem, NC).

Relationship Goals: Is Modern Media Redefining Your Standards?In this episode, we're pulling back the curtain on [Movie Name] and the subtle ways it promotes cultural compromise over biblical truth. While Hollywood paints a picture of romance that feels good, how does it stack up against the biblical standard of love and marriage we discussed at the recent True Love Conference?We dive deep into the "gray areas" of dating and sex that this movie tries to normalize, exposing the red flags that many Christians are missing. It's time to stop settling for a version of love that's culturally convenient but spiritually empty. If you're ready to stop compromising and start pursuing a relationship that honors God, this breakdown is for you.In this episode:• The danger of "Christian-ish" dating tropes.• Why compromise is the enemy of a Godly marriage.• Reclaiming the standards from the True Love Conference.FREE Download:;The Science of One Flesh and Marital BondingHoodie I'm Wearing

Hello Interactors,Watching all the transnational love at the Olympics has been inspiring. We're all forced to think about nationalities, borders, ethnicities, and all the flavors of behavioral geography it entails. After all, these athletes are all there representing their so-called “homeland.” And in the case of Alysa Liu, her father's escape from his. Between the 1989 Tiananmen Square massacre and the fall of the Berlin wall, “homeland” took on new meaning for many immigrants. This all took me back to that time and the start of my own journey at Microsoft at the dawn of a new global reality.HOMELAND HATCHED HEREWith all the focus on Olympics and immigration recently, I've found myself reflecting on my days at Microsoft in the 90s. As the company was growing (really fast), teams were filling up with people recruited from around the world. There were new accents in meetings, new holidays to celebrate, and yummy new foods and funny new words being introduced. This thickening of transnational ties made Redmond feel as connected the rest of the world as the globalized software we were building. By 2000 users around the world could switch between over 60 languages in Windows and Office. In behavioral geography terms, working on the product and using the product made “here” feel more connected to “elsewhere.”This influx of new talent was all enabled by the Immigration Act of 1990. Signed by George H. W. Bush, it increased and stabilized legal pathways for highly skilled immigrants. This continued with Clinton era decisions to expand H-1B visa allocations that fed the tech hiring boom. I took full advantage of this allotment recruiting and hiring interaction designers and user researchers from around the world. In the same decade the federal government expanded access to the United States, it also tightened security. Terrorism threats, especially after the 1993 World Trade Center bombing, spooked everyone. Despite this threat, there was more domestic initiated terrorism than outside foreign attacks. The decade saw deadly incidents like the Oklahoma City bombing in 1995 by radicalized by white supremacist anti-government terrorists, which killed 168 and injured hundreds, making it the deadliest terrorist attack in U.S. history before 9/11.A year later, the Atlanta Olympic bombing and related bombings by anti-government Christian extremists caused multiple deaths and injuries. Clinic bombings and shootings by anti-abortion extremists began in 1994 with the Brookline clinic shootings and continued through the 1998 Birmingham clinic bombing. These inspired more arsons, bombings, and shootings tied to white supremacist, anti-abortion, and other extreme ideologies.Still, haven been shocked by Islamist extremists in 1993 (and growing Islamic jihadist plots outside the U.S.) the federal government adopted new security language centered on protecting the “homeland” from outside incursions. In 1998, Clinton signed Presidential Decision Directive 62, titled “Protection Against Unconventional Threats to the Homeland and Americans Overseas,” a serious counterterrorism document whose title quietly normalized the term homeland inside executive governance.But there was at least one critical voice. Steven Simon, Clinton's senior director for counterterrorism on the National Security Council, didn't think “Defense of the Homeland” belonged in a presidential directive.Simon's retrospective argument is that “homeland” did more than name a policy, it brought a territorial logic of legitimacy that the American constitution had historically resisted. He recalls the phrase “Defense of the Homeland” felt “faintly illiberal, even un-American.” The United States historically grounded constitutional legitimacy in civic and legal abstractions (people, union, republic, human rights) rather than blood rights or rights to soil. Membership was to be mediated by institutions, employment, and law rather than ancestry.“Homeland” serves as a powerful cue that suggests a mental model of ‘home' and expands it to encompass a nation. This model is accompanied by a set of spatial inferences that evoke familiarity, appeal, and even an intuitive sense. However, it also creates a sense of a confined interior that can be breached by someone from outside.This is rooted in place attachment that can be defined as an affective bond between people and places — an emotional tie that can anchor identity and responsibility. But attachment is not the same thing as ownership. Research on collective psychological ownership shows how groups can come to experience a territory as “ours.” This creates a sense of ownership that can be linked to a perceived determination right. Here, the ingroup is entitled to decide what happens in that place while sometimes feeding a desire to exclude outsiders. When the word “homeland” was placed at the center of statecraft it primed public reasoning from attachment of place through care, stewardship, and shared fate toward property ownership through control, gatekeeping, and exclusion. It turns belonging into something closer to a property claim.What makes the 1990s especially instructive from a geography perspective is that “access” itself was being administered through institutions that are intensely spatial: consulates, ports of entry, employer locations, housing markets, and the micro-geographies of office life. The H-1B expansions was not simply generosity, but a form of managed throughput in a system designed to meet labor demand. And it was paired with political assurances about enforcement and domestic worker protections.Mid-decade legal reforms strengthened enforcement by authorities in significant ways. Mechanisms for faster removals and stricter interior enforcement reinforced the idea that the state could act more decisively within the national space. The federal government found ways to expand legal channels that served economic objectives while also building a governance style increasingly comfortable with interior control. “Homeland” helped supply the conceptual bridge that made that socioeconomic coexistence feel coherent.It continues to encourage a politics of boundary maintenance that determines who counts as inside, what kinds of movement are legible as normal, and which bodies are perpetually “out of place.” If the defended object is a republic, the default language justification is legal and civic. If the defended object is a homeland, the language jurisdiction becomes territorial and affective. That shift changes what restrictions, surveillance practices, and membership tests become thinkable and tolerable over time. HOMELAND'S HOHFELDIAN HARNESSIf “homeland” structures a place of belonging, then “rights” are the legal grammar that tells us what may be done in that place. The trouble is that “rights” are often treated as moral abstract objects floating above context. Legally, they are structured relations among people, institutions, and things. But “rights” can take on a variety of meanings.Wesley Hohfeld, the Yale law professor who pioneered analytical jurisprudence in the early 20th century, argued that many legal disputes persist because the word “right” is used ambiguously.He distinguished four basic “incidents” for rights: claim, privilege (liberty), power, and immunity. Each is paired with a position correlating to another party: duty, no-claim (no-right), liability, and disability. When the police pull you over for speeding you hold a privilege to drive at or below the speed limit (say, 40 mph). The state has no-right to demand you stop for going exactly 40 mph. But if you're clocked at 50 mph, the officer enforces your no-right to exceed the limit which correlates to the state's claim-right. You have a duty to comply by pulling over. If the officer then has power to issue a ticket, you face a liability to have your driving privilege altered (e.g., fined). But you also enjoy an immunity from arbitrary arrest without probable cause.Let's apply that to “homeland” security.If a politician says we must “defend the homeland,” it can mean at least four different things legally:* Claim-Rights: Citizens can demand that the government protect them (e.g., from attacks). Officials have the duty to act — think TSA screening or border patrol.​* Privileges: Federal Agents get freedoms to act without legal blocks, such as stopping and questioning people in so-called high-risk zones, while bystanders have no-right to interfere.​* Powers: Federal Agencies hold authority to change your legal status. For example, they can label you a watchlist risk (e.g., you become a liability). This can then lead to loss of liberties like travel bans, detentions, or asset freezes.​* Immunities: Federal Officials or programs shield themselves from lawsuits (via qualified immunity or classified data rules), effectively blocking citizens' ability to sue.Forget whether these are legitimate or illegitimate, Hohfeld's point is they are different forms of rights — and each has distinct costs. Once “homeland” is the object, the system tends to grow powers and privileges (capacity for overt or covert operations), and to seek immunities (resistance to challenge), often at the expense of others' claim-rights and liberties.Rights are not only relational, but they are also often spatially conditional. The same person can move through zones of legality experiencing different practical rights. Consider border checkpoints, airports, perimeters of government buildings, protest cites, or regions declared “emergency” zones. Government institutions operationalize these spaces as “behavioral geographies” which determines who gets stopped, where scrutiny concentrates, and which movements count as suspicious.The state looks past the abstract bearer of unalienable liberties and due process to see only a physical entity whose movements through space dissolve their Constitutional immunities into a series of observable, trackable traces. Those traces become inputs to enforcement. This is what makes surveillance so powerful. “Homeland” governance is especially trace-hungry because it imagines safety as a property of space that must be continuously maintained.But these traces are behavioral cues and human behavior is never neutral. They are interpreted through normalized cultural and institutional schemas about who “belongs” in which places. Place attachment and territorial belonging can become gatekeeping mechanisms. Empirical work on homeland/place attachment links it to identity processes and self-categorization. Related work suggests that collective psychological ownership — “this place is ours” — can predict exclusionary attitudes toward immigrants and outsiders. In legal terms, those social attitudes can translate into pressure to expand state powers and narrow outsiders' claim-rights.A vocabulary rooted in a ‘republic' tends to emphasize rights as universal claims against the state. This is where we get due process, equal protection, and rights to speech and assembly. A homeland vocabulary tends to emphasize rights as statused permissions tied to membership and territory. Here we find rights of citizens, rights at the border, rights in “emergencies”, and rights conditioned on “lawful presence.” The shift makes some restrictions feel like a kind of protecting of the home. Hence the unaffable phrase, “Get off my lawn.”HOMELAND HIERARCHIES HUMBLEDIf the “homeland” is framed as a place-of-belonging and rights are the grammar of that place, then the current crisis of American democracy boils down to a dispute over the nature of equality. This tension is best understood through the long-standing constitutional debate between anticlassification and antisubordination, which dates back to the Reconstruction era. Anticlassification, often called the “colorblind” or “status-blind” approach, holds that the state's duty is simply to avoid explicit categories in its laws. Antisubordination, by contrast, insists that the law must actively dismantle structured group hierarchies and the “caste-like” systems they produce. When the state embraces a “homeland” logic, it leans heavily on anticlassification to mask a deeper reality of spatial subordination.In what we might call the “Theater of Defense,” agencies like the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) increasingly rely on anticlassification principles to justify aggressive interior crackdowns. They frame enforcement as a territorial necessity by protecting the sanctity of the soil itself. A workplace raid or roving patrol, in this view, does not target any specific group. Instead, it simply maintains the “integrity” of the homeland. This reflects what law professor Bradley Areheart and others have described as the “anticlassification turn,” where formal attempts to embody equality end up legitimizing structural inequality.Put differently, the state exercises a Hohfeldian Power to alter individuals' legal status based on their geographic location or “lawful presence.” At the same time, it shields itself from legal challenge by insisting that the law applies equally to everyone who is “out of place.” This claim of territorial neutrality is a dangerous legal fiction. As scholars Solon Barocas and Andrew Selbst have shown in their work on algorithmic systems, attempts at neutral criteria often replicate entrenched biases. Triggers like “proximity to a border” or “behavioral traces” in a transit hub do not produce blind justice. They enable targeted scrutiny and the erosion of immunity for those whose identities fail to match the “belonging” model of the “homeland.” The state circumvents its Hohfeldian Disability, avoiding the creation of second-class statuses, by pretending to manage space rather than discriminate against persons.This shift from a civic Republic to a territorial “homeland” is the primary driver of democratic backsliding. Political scientist Jacob Grumbach captured this dynamic in his 2022 paper, Laboratories of Democratic Backsliding. Analyzing 51 indicators of electoral democracy across U.S. states from 2000 to 2018, Grumbach developed the State Democracy Index. His findings reveal how American federalism has morphed from “laboratories of democracy” into sites of subnational authoritarianism. States with low scores on the index — often under unified Republican control — have pioneered police powers that insulate partisan dominance. We see this in the rise of state-level immigration enforcement units, the criminalization of movement for marginalized groups, and the expansion of a “right to exclude.”These states are not just enforcing the law. They are forging what Yale legal scholar Owen Fiss would recognize as a new caste system. By fixating on “defending” state soil against “infiltrators,” legislatures dismantle the public rights of the Reconstruction era — the right to participate in community life without indignity. Today's backsliding policies transform the nation's interior into a permanent enforcement zone. They reject the Enlightenment ideals of America, rooted in beliefs like liberty, equality, democracy, individual rights, and the rule of law. To fully understand Constitutional history, we best acknowledge that America's universalist creedal definition wasn't solely European. David Graeber and David Wengrow's The Dawn of Everything shows how Enlightenment values of liberty and equality arose from intellectual exchanges with Indigenous North American thinkers. Kandiaronk, a Huron statesman, traveled to Europe in the late 17th century and debated French aristocrats. His critiques were published and circulated widely among European intellectuals, including Voltaire, Diderot, and Rousseau. Graeber and Wengrow point out that before the widely popular publication of these dialogues in 1703, the concept of "Equality" as a primary political value was almost entirely absent from European philosophy. By the time Rousseau wrote his Discourse on the Origin and Basis of Inequality Among Men in 1754, it was the central question of the age.Kandiaronk criticized European society's subservience to kings and obsession with property. He contrasted it with the consensual governance and individual agency of the Haudenosaunee Confederacy embodied in their Great Law of Peace — a political order prioritizing the public right to exist without state-sanctioned indignity.The writers of the U.S. Constitution codified a Republic of “unalienable rights,” synthesizing Indigenous/European-inspired liberty with Hohfeldian Disabilities that legally restrained the state from territorial monarchy. Backsliding erases this profound philosophical endeavor. Reclaiming the Republic means honoring the Indigenous critique that a nation's legitimacy rests on its people's freedom, not its fences.We seem to be moving from governance by the governed to protecting an ingroup. In Hohfeldian terms, the state expands its privileges while shrinking the claim-rights of the vulnerable to move and exist safely. This leads to “spatial subordination,” managed through adiaphorization — a concept from social theorist Zygmunt Bauman's 1989 Modernity and the Holocaust. Bauman, a Polish-Jewish survivor who escaped the Nazis' grip on his early life, drew “adiaphora” from the Greek for matters outside moral evaluation. Modern bureaucracies make horrific actions morally neutral by framing them as technical duties, enabling atrocities like the Holocaust without personal ethical torment.As territorial belonging takes precedence, non-belongers are excluded from moral and legal obligations. They become “non-spaces” or “human waste” in the eyes of ICE and DHS. This betrays antisubordination, the “core and conscience” of America's civil rights tradition, as Yale constitutional scholars Jack Balkin and Reva Siegel called it. A democracy can't endure if it permanently relegates any group to legal impossibility. In the “homeland”, immigrants may live, work, and raise families for decades, yet remain mere “traces” to expunge. Weaponized place attachment turns affective bonds into property claims. This empowers the state to “cleanse” those deemed to be “out of place.” Rights become statused permissions, not universal ideals. If immunity from search depends on territorial status, the Republic of laws has yielded to a Heimat — a term the Nazis' usurped for their blood-and-soil homeland…that they then bloodied and soiled.Reversing this demands confronting the linguistic and legal architecture that rendered it conceivable. It's time to rethink the “homeland” frame and its anticlassification crutch. A truer and fairer Republic would commit to antisubordination and the state would be disabled from wielding space for hierarchy. A person's immunity from arbitrary power should be closer to an inalienable right to be “secure in one's person” that holds firm beyond checkpoints or workplace doors…or your front door.Steven Simon was right to feel uneasy with Clinton's wording. “Homeland” planted a seed that sprouted into hedgerows of exceptional powers and curtailed liberties. Are we going to cling to a “homeland” secured by fear and exclusion, forever unstable, or finally become a Republic revered for securing universal law and rights? As long as our rights remain geographically conditional, we all dwell in liability. Reclaiming the Republic, and our freedoms within it, may require transforming the Constitution from a Hohfeldian map of perimeters into a boundless plane of human dignity it aspires to be.

Faith That OvercomesThere is one theological point that when a believer truly grasps it, transforms them from a spectator into a world changer. It is not new. It is not complicated. But it has been buried, forgotten, and in many cases deliberately set aside — and the results are visible everywhere we look.Here is what is remarkable about the believers who actually changed the world: they disagreed on many things. They debated baptism, church governance and structure, worship practice, and end times theology. But on this one point — every single world changer, in every generation, across every tradition — got it right. And when they got it right, everything else clicked. Their preaching had power. Their prayers produced results. Their advance was unstoppable.And every generation that missed it — no matter how sincere, how passionate, or how doctrinally precise in every other area — found that their best efforts produced little lasting impact. You can have the worship right, the theology right, the programs right, and the intentions right — and still watch darkness advance if you have missed this one thing.Reclaiming this theological standpoint in our generation may be the most important thing the Church can do right now.Jesus promised that the gates of hell shall not prevail against His Church. But gates are defensive structures. They don't move. They don't pursue. They hold ground. Which means Jesus was not promising that the Church would survive the devil's attacks — He was declaring that the devil cannot survive the Church's advance. The imagery is not a Church under siege. It is a Church storming the gates of an enemy stronghold.So if hell's gates are prevailing in your area and in your generation — if the enemy is successfully defending his territory from you — the promise didn't fail. The Church simply wasn't advancing.In this message Robbie Patterson shares the account of Columba — who sailed to the pagan shores of Scotland, walked into a land steeped in demon worship and druidic darkness, and advanced until an entire nation came to faith in Jesus Christ. He had this one thing right. And it made everything else work.Somewhere along the way the Church stopped advancing and started retreating. Principalities that Spirit-filled believers once toppled in the authority of Jesus Christ are now reoccupying the very institutions and regions that the blood of faithful men and women purchased for the Kingdom of God.This message confronts the passive, defensive, survival-minded Christianity that has no historical precedent among the believers who actually changed the world — and calls the Church back to what it was always commissioned to be: an advancing Kingdom force that the gates of hell cannot withstand.Gates don't chase you. The question is whether you are moving.Your theology will determine your trajectory.Every generation leaves a verdict behind — and yours is still being written.It's time to advance.#ChristIsKingLiveLikeIt #FaithThatOvercomes

Too often, sin has been used to control, shame, or divide. Join us to explore how Unitarian Universalism can offer a different lens. Reclaiming Religious Language Series At the turning of the year, we pause to rediscover what matters most to us beneath the noise of daily life. Rooted in the Unitarian Universalist shared values, this series invites us into a spiritual homecoming in which we will reflect on the values that shape us. Through ritual, reflection, and community, we will release what no longer serves us, opening space for transformation. We will honor our pluralism, embrace our call to justice and equity, recognize our deep interdependence, and embody generosity as a way of being. At the center of it all, we return to love as a daily practice that grounds and sustains us.

In this episode of Allyship in Action, Julie Kratz is joined by HBR writer, executive and team coach, Kathryn Landis, to explore capacity erosion—the gradual depletion of energy and focus facing today's leaders. In an era of constant change and cognitive overload, Landis shares how leaders can reclaim their impact by shifting from micromanagement to intentional empowerment and strategic reflection. Key Takeaways Focus on Your "$100 Activities": Leaders often gravitate toward low-impact tasks for a quick sense of productivity. Reclaiming capacity requires identifying the high-level strategic work that only you can do. "Get really clear on what's the work that only you can do... what you actually could be focusing on that's going to move the needle the most is perhaps working with your cross-functional colleagues, the other members of the C-suite, to strengthen those ties." — Kathryn Landis Empower Your Team Through Clarity: High-performing teams thrive on a clear purpose and defined decision rights. To reduce your own workload, ensure your team understands exactly what they own and what success looks like. "Do people have a clear purpose? Do people know why they're a team? Most people know what their job description is... but I was leading an off-site last week; they didn't know what their team goals were. They don't know what success looks like." — Kathryn Landis Prioritize the "Lamp Post" for Reflection: Intentional reflection is a non-negotiable for effective leadership. Creating a dedicated space to process information—even just by talking to a metaphorical lamp post—can provide significant mental clarity. "If someone would go and speak to a lamp post for an hour every day at the same time, they'd get 60% of the benefit of coaching... just creating the space and time to be intentional about where you're spending your time, reflecting on what you're doing." — Kathryn Landis Connect with Kathryn and take her free team assessment here: https://kathryn-landis.kit.com/3dcf1c4440

"We built institutions that were supposed to reflect reality. But the windows became mirrors." In the second century, the Gnostics believed our world was a false reality created by a confused lesser god known as the Demiurge. Today, we are trapped in a modern equivalent: a labyrinth of metrics, models, and algorithms that dictate our lives while entirely missing our humanity. In Part 7 of The Mirror World, we dissect the collapse of institutional sense-making and the profound psychological toll of living inside the "fake world." Drawing on the histories of standardized testing, the DSM, and economic modeling, we explore how disciplines retreated behind "mechanical objectivity" to defend against insecurity—and how the profit motive locked us inside these models. Ultimately, we confront the modern pinnacle of this trap: Large Language Models (LLMs). We examine why AI is not the solution, but rather the ultimate simulacrum—the ghost of the human archive that performs the gesture of understanding while severing us from the real. To escape the mirror, we turn to the late psychologist James Hillman. Reclaiming our soul's calling—our daimon—requires more than just new metrics or better prompts. It requires us to do the one thing the algorithm cannot: grieve.

The Great Simplification with Nate Hagens ✓ Claim : Read the notes at at podcastnotes.org. Don't forget to subscribe for free to our newsletter, the top 10 ideas of the week, every Monday --------- With grocery prices skyrocketing and supply chain disruptions becoming more frequent, the average person has more and more incentive to get involved in growing their own food – but how does one even get started? For most people, the time, money, knowledge, and land remain out of reach in order to learn even the basics of agriculture. What kind of options are available for individuals who want to reclaim their food sovereignty – and subsequently become more connected with the Earth and like-minded people?  In this episode, Nate is joined by biologist and farmer Jason Bradford, to discuss his 'Farming Club,' which offers hands-on learning for ecologically based agriculture, where members also get to take home food and build a relationship with the land. Jason explains why industrial agriculture, optimized for financial returns and machine efficiency while ignoring ecological costs, makes it almost impossible to become a successful small-scale farmer in today's economy. The Farming Club's model provides a way for people to maintain their jobs while building the knowledge, skills, and community connections needed for a lower-throughput future.  How could reinvigorating farming culture provide an avenue to real skills and purpose to the next generation, especially for young men? How could the farming club model be replicated across the country, sparking small rural movements everywhere? And how could thousands of ideas and initiatives like these act as safety nets for individuals and communities as we transition to a more simplified society? (Conversation recorded on December 4th, 2025)     About Jason Bradford: Jason co-manages a Community Supported Agriculture program with the Organic Growers Club at Oregon State University, where he practices land stewardship methods and cultivates community rooted in ecologically-based agricultural practices. Prior to his switch to agriculture, he was a research biologist studying evolution, ecology, and global change. Additionally, Jason has been affiliated with the Post Carbon Institute since 2004, first as a Fellow and then as Board President. He is currently a co-host of the Crazy Town podcast, as well as a writer for Resilience.org. Additionally, in 2019, he authored The Future is Rural: Food System Adaptations to the Great Simplification.   Show Notes and More   Watch this video episode on YouTube   Want to learn the broad overview of The Great Simplification in 30 minutes?

What if the most powerful technology we'll ever need is already within us?   In this episode of HEAL with Kelly, I'm joined by my good friend Gregg Braden—scientist, bestselling author, and a familiar face from the HEAL documentary—for a conversation that feels more important than ever.   Gregg joins me to explore themes from his latest book, Pure Human: The Hidden Truth of Our Divinity, Power, and Destiny, and to unpack what's really at stake as we move deeper into an age of artificial intelligence, transhumanism, and rapid technological change. Together, we explore how our biology, emotions, and intuition are not flaws at all, but expressions of an extraordinary intelligence already living within us.   We touch on epigenetics, the regenerative capacity of the brain and heart, the science of coherence, and a fascinating genetic mystery—including the role of human chromosome 2 and how it may be tied to our capacity for empathy, creativity, and higher consciousness. We also explore why creativity, imagination, healing, and love are not outdated traits—but essential expressions of our humanness.   We reflect on what we lost during the pandemic, why so many of us never had the space to grieve, and how honoring our biology may be the path back to resilience, meaning, and wholeness.   This isn't a conversation rooted in fear—it's a remembering. A reminder of who we are, what we're capable of, and what it truly means to stay human. Key Moments You'll Love ✨:

From the concept of the "motherhood wall" to the cultural myths we absorb without realizing it, they explore why so many women feel stretched thin, unseen and perpetually behind, even when they are doing more than enough.   Whitney reflects on how easily we internalize this strain as personal failure. Dr. O'Reilly reframes the story: what if the problem is not you, but the structure you are operating inside? Together, they challenge the myth of the endlessly self-sacrificing "Good Mother," unpack the false divide between working mothers and stay-at-home mothers, and argue for choice, agency and dignity without apology.   This conversation moves beyond coping. It offers language, context and a wider lens. You will leave feeling validated, clearer about what you are carrying, and reminded that your exhaustion is not a character flaw. Press play and step into a more truthful, compassionate narrative.   Here's what you can look forward to in this episode: What the motherhood wall is and how it impacts women beyond just career conversations How cultural norms and systemic structures shape the experience of modern motherhood Why so many moms internalize their struggles as personal failure The lasting impact of the "Good Mother" myth and unrealistic standards The importance of solidarity and community among mothers Reclaiming visibility and value for maternal labor and caregiving work An introduction to matricentric feminism and what it means for mothers today Reflection question to ponder: Is this necessary, and is this good for me and my family?   Learn more about 1:1 coaching with Whitney - book a 15-minute Spark Session   Connect with Whitney: Instagram l Website l 5 Days to Less Stress, More Satisfaction l Tend to Your Soul Toolkit l 10 Soulful Journaling Prompts | Electric Ideas Podcast   Connect with Dr. O'Reilly: In (M)other Words: Writings on Mothering and Motherhood, 2009-2024 | York University

“Trust in your inner knowing. Absolutely. And know that your angels do have your back.” – Nicole Olivier photo by Jonathan Condit Screenwriter and Hoffman Process graduate Nicole Olivier has a profound ancestral history. As a daughter of families active in France and Norway’s WWII Resistance, she grew up hearing family stories of moral courage and being of service. Nicole has woven these ancestral stories into her life’s work and art. Nicole is mindful of her ancestral patterns and epigenetics; how trauma was passed down and lives inside of her. During her childhood, she witnessed what was going on and attuned to the power dynamics playing out amid her parents’ divorce. As we all do, she developed patterns to get her through these early years. What’s beautiful about Nicole’s story is how she has worked and studied to understand the origins of those dynamics. The Hoffman Process, understanding somatics, and knowing the lineage of ancestral history supported her in releasing the power of those patterns. Transforming them and realizing they are not who she is supported a deeper capacity to witness and honor her ancestors’ profound courage and strength. Through her dedicated drive to understand how the unconscious is shaped in our early years and foster tools to cultivate compassion, Nicole now brings her wisdom more fully to the current focus of her art, screenwriting. Most recently, Nicole attended the Hoffman Q2 after the loss of her mother. Caring for her mother after a stroke until her peaceful passing was a deep act of service for Nicole. Now an ancestor, her mother is inspiring Nicole’s next screenplay. Her wish is to honor her mother and her mother’s life. Photo credit: Jonathan Condit Content warning: We hope you find this conversation with Nicole and Sadie insightful and inspiring. Please be aware that this episode mentions and includes stories of genocide, World War II, and the devastating events of these times. It describes the experience of a young child participating in France’s WWII Resistance. Please use your discretion. More about Nicole Olivier: Fascinated by human behavior and how the subconscious is shaped in formative years, Nicole Olivier majored in psychology at Mills College, studied at the Sorbonne, spoke about maintaining morale at the Western Psychology Association’s Convention, and participated in Stanford University’s inaugural Compassion Cultivation program. After a brief but award-winning career as an advertising copywriter in Manhattan and San Francisco, inspired by childhood influences from international cinema to sitcoms, Nicole wrote her first feature script in seven days – a spontaneous creative outpouring that launched her screenwriting path. She then reached the second round of the Sundance Screenwriting Competition twice and was selected as one of twelve writers for the Olympic Valley Community of Writers Screenwriters Workshop. Her mentor there was the gracious, Oscar-nominated Tom Rickman, founding Creative Advisor of the Workshop and the Sundance Screenwriters Lab. The daughter of families active in France and Norway’s WWII Resistance, Nicole developed a keen sensitivity to power dynamics and hypervigilance amid shifts sparked by her parents’ divorce. She channeled insights into her screenwriting, weaving in Thomas Hübl‘s epigenetic work, Peter Levine‘s somatics, EMDR, and tapping. Learning meditation in the early ’90s from spiritual mentor Jack Kornfield offered Nicole a model of benevolent leadership. In the film world, this was echoed by dear friend and mentor, Tom Luddy, founder of the Telluride Film Festival. Working alongside Christine Aylward, CEO of the former filmmakers’ forum, MakingOf, co-founded by Natalie Portman, underlined the importance of connecting with positive, values-based people. Caring for her wise, vibrant mother after a stroke in San Francisco until her peaceful passing nearly four years later inspired Nicole’s next screenplay, honoring the life of this heroic, service-oriented dynamo. Nicole welcomes new connections with creative allies and benefactors drawn to champion female filmmakers writing with levity about love, courage, and intergenerational healing.

Send a textFrom an NLP perspective, what are some of the common ways we get stuck in experiences or behavior patterns because we aren't exercising as much conscious control as we really have? 1.     Holding Onto Limiting Beliefs Tips to overcome this:An easy way to begin to loosen the effects of a belief is to do Sleight of Mouth. Ep 51, 53.Take the belief statement with a cause/effect or meaning, and write out the pattern of SOM to change it. This will weaken the belief and make it open to changing into something more positive. Example: I never get to save money because I spend all that I make.Your intention is to be responsible and have money for a rainy day.Has there ever been a time when you were able to save money?Saving a little is better than saving nothing at all.2.     Engaging in Negative Self-Talk and Internal DialogueTips overcome this:Monitor your self-talk. Change any negative move-away statement to something that moves towards what you want. Negative self-talk is the result of neuro-grooving. The thought becomes habituated. Change the language to what you want. Punch or Meta reframes are good for this. I can't change my circumstances. You can change that thought!Conflict resolution between what you say and something more empowering.3.  Failing to Set Clear, Positive OutcomesTips overcome this:This is the most important principle of getting what you want. A goal or outcome must be stated in positive, active language, self-initiated and maintained, ecological, and demonstrated in see, hear, feel. I'm saving $15 a week. I'm putting it in a place where it is more difficult to access. I am doing this for myself or by myself. I may lose a couple of cups of coffee a week. I see myself putting the money in a special place or transferring it to another account. I see the amount increasing every week. I tell myself that this is easier than I thought it was going to be. I feel a sense of well-being in my chest and smile. 4. Assigning Disempowering Meanings to ExperiencesTips overcome this:Look at something in a different way, and what does that mean? Change positions to look at something. What else could this mean? Ask someone else, a friend or mentor, what else could it mean?  Read the opinions of others and widen your perspective.Talk to someone you respect and trust for a different way of looking at something.And write a story about the meaning and experience. Then rewrite it with a more positive perspective.5. Poor Management of Emotional StatesTips overcome this:Regular self-care and maintenanceVisualize yourself in happy, calm, confident statesAnchoring negative emotions with positive ones.Conflict resolution between the present state and the desired state These are all brief suggestions. Remember that certain problems, especially those that come up over and over again, may need some work with me. Especially dealing with belief issues and meaning perspective, having someone who can guide you through these saves time, effort, and yes, even money.  NLP is not necessarily self-applied. Some problems may seem simple but have more complex underlying causes.     Support the show

V Maďarsku sa o necelé dva mesiace konajú parlamentné voľby. Zásadné nebudú len pre miestnych a Viktora Orbána, ale aj pre Európu. Prieskumy naznačujú, že by si Orbán mohol dať po 16 rokoch od vládnutia aspoň načas pauzu. Kampaň je však ostrá a podľa premiérovho vyzývateľa Pétra Magyara ako z kompromatu v ruskom štýle. Ako to u našich južných susedov aktuálne vyzerá, ako voľby ovplyvňuje odstávka ruskej ropy a škandál s baterkárňou?

This episode includes discussion of eating disorders, including anorexia and bulimia. Listener discretion advised. This might be one of the most powerful conversations I've ever had on How To Fail. I don't say that lightly - I've had some amazing guests - but there's something about how Jennette puts the female experience into words that I find truly electrifying. Raised Mormon in Orange County, Jennette was just six when her mother decided she would become an actor. What followed was a difficult, abusive childhood, which she chronicled with unflinching honesty in her 2022 memoir, I'm Glad My Mom Died - a book that spent more than 90 weeks on the New York Times bestseller list. Her new novel, Half His Age, follows 17-year-old Waldo as she embarks on an affair with her 40-year-old creative writing teacher. It's a startling, powerful story about discomfort, agency and self-determination and it became a Sunday Times Number One bestseller in its first week! In this episode, we talk about her upbringing, her experience of disordered eating, the writing process and the grounding partner she's been with for nine years (who I was lucky enough to meet). Plus: setting boundaries, finding your voice, rage, recovery and autonomy. Recorded in our London studio. ✨ IN THIS EPISODE: 00:00 Introduction 03:27 Speaking Up and Setting Boundaries 04:15 Reception of 'Half His Age' 07:22 Exploring Mormonism and Guilt 14:36 Failures and Creative Process 30:09 Calorie Restriction Lessons from My Mother 30:58 First Encounter with Anorexia 32:45 The Turning Point: Mother's Death and Recovery 32:58 Struggles with Bulimia 35:41 Therapy and the Road to Recovery 36:47 Understanding the Value of Eating Disorders 38:59 Healing Through Relationships 42:58 Finding My Voice and Inner Peace

Sarah Gromko and Matthew Zachary go back to SUNY Binghamton in the early 1990s, when they were barely 19 and living inside rehearsal rooms. She starred in campus musical theater productions. He served as pianist and music director for many of those shows and played rehearsal piano for the THEA101 repertory company. This episode reunites two former theater nerds who grew up and took very different paths through art, illness, and work that still circles the same truth.Gromko trained as a singer and composer, studied film scoring at Berklee College of Music, worked in New York and New Orleans, then moved into healthcare as a speech language pathologist and recognized vocologist. She explains aphasia, apraxia, dysarthria, and dysphagia with clarity earned from the clinic. She recounts helping a 16 year old gunshot survivor in New Orleans speak again using Melodic Intonation Therapy. The conversation covers voice banking for ALS, gender affirming voice care, and the damage caused when medicine confuses speech loss with intelligence loss. The result feels like an epic reunion powered by 1990s nostalgia and sharpened by decades of lived consequence.RELATED LINKSSarah GromkoGramco VoiceMelodic Intonation TherapyFEEDBACKLike this episode?

This week on The Wellness Scoop, we're talking about why so many of us feel constantly distracted, what new research is revealing about cancer-linked ingredients in everyday foods, and why fermented foods are one of the most evidence-backed habits worth building into real life. We break down why attention feels so hard to hold onto right now, how scrolling, sleep and alcohol quietly shape focus and memory, and what the science actually shows helps us reclaim concentration without cutting technology out altogether. We also unpack major new studies linking long-term exposure to certain food preservatives with increased cancer and type 2 diabetes risk, what this says about how our food system has changed, and the realistic food swaps that matter most. We close by looking at fermented foods, why aiming to include them weekly, or ideally daily, is strongly linked to better gut health, lower inflammation and overall wellbeing, and how to do it simply.
