Kent Donguines' journey creating Treasure of the Rice Terraces began in 2016. From idea to development, Donguines' slow and steady process was grounded with one intention: to be in community with his subjects.Treasure of the Rice Terraces follows Donguines' travels back to the Philippines to reconnect with his roots. Discovering the world of Indigenous Kalinga tattoos in Buscalan, he falls upon 108-year-old tattoo artist Apo Whang-Od, marking the beginning of this story. A community that is often exploited by tourists and vloggers day after day, all seeking to be marked by Whang-Od, this film offers a new lens on a precious cultural practice, demonstrating how traditions can survive, evolve, and inspire both local communities and identity worldwide.Donguines joins Director of Programming, Curtis Woloschuk, on the VIFF Podcast to discuss how making art can affirm your identity and empower you to bring these stories home.This podcast is brought to you by the Vancouver International Film Festival.Presented on the traditional and unceded territory of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and sel̓íl̓witulh (Tsleil-Waututh) nations.

Guided: Tina Hello Beautiful, I'm so grateful you're here with me.

Beloved, Scientifically, we only access about 1% of the light spectrum and frequency bands. We call this "real," but it is only a fraction of what exists.While this may be FAR LEFT FIELD as you read this - it would be irresponsible of me NOT to share - in the month's ahead.Aliens, UFO's and what's ahead.RIGHT NOW WE ARE WITNESSING….Government secrecy is crumbling as its costs exceed the risks of transparency.Instead of chaos or Hollywood-style invasions, world leaders, scientists, and the media will gradually normalize extraterrestrial presence.This shift is less about seeing ships in the sky and more about a fundamental identity change—moving from cosmic isolation to realizing we've never been truly alone.The Big PictureWhat's Actually Happening Something remarkable is occurring at the cellular level of every human being on Earth right now. While spiritual communities have long discussed “DNA activation” and “ascension,” there's actually a fascinating interplay between cosmic physics and human biology driving these changes.The Science Behind the construct of the “Veil Thinning”Our sun creates something called a heliosphere - essentially a protective bubble that extends beyond our solar system. This barrier has historically filtered out much of the cosmic radiation and light particles coming from the rest of the galaxy.Fear is the primary anchor that keeps consciousness locked in the body. When the body starts to "shut down" during deep meditation or an exit, the ego panics. Letting go of the fear of other dimensions or of dying - is actually the key to truly living and exploring the beyond.Here's what's changing:* The sun itself is transforming - becoming whiter and brighter than previous decades* The heliosphere is becoming more permeable, allowing more interstellar particles through* Earth's gravitational field is also shifting, permitting more of these “light codes” to reach us* These aren't mystical concepts - they're measurable electromagnetic frequenciesWhat This Means at the Cellular LevelAccording to channeled information - the energies are interacting with our biology in specific ways:The Telomere Connection: The telomeres (protective caps at the ends of our chromosomes) are allowing electromagnetic frequencies to pass through the DNA coils. This is triggering genetic expressions that have been dormant - essentially “remembering” capabilities that were switched off long ago.Mitochondrial Changes: The energy-producing structures in our cells are adapting. The suggestion is that eventually, human cells will be able to hold light directly, potentially reducing our dependence on food for energy.Why We Feel So Tired: The fatigue many people experience isn't random. When these cosmic frequencies interact with our cellular structures, it creates a kind of beneficial stress - similar to how a sauna creates stress proteins that ultimately strengthen the body. Our systems are working overtime to integrate these new frequencies.Ascension Symptoms - not just for EmpathsExplained…..Many people report experiencing:* Chronic fatigue and disrupted sleep patterns* Heart palpitations* Ringing in the ears* Skin issues and sensitivities* Watery eyes* Feeling mentally “scattered” or anxiousYour body is literally acting as a conduit - pulling cosmic energy down through your personal energy field, processing it through your cells, and anchoring it into Earth's crystalline grid system. Where you have emotional, mental, or energetic blockages, this energy has to push through, creating discomfort.Why some people feel it more than others: It depends on where you are in relation to what's called “the singularity” - a convergence point of timelines:* Those “ahead” of it feel energized and clear* Those “in the middle” experience neutral observation* Those “behind” it feel heavy, sluggish, and lost* Earth is a “Free Will Planet”The Bigger Context? You Chose It. Earth holds a unique position in our galaxy as a free will zone. This means:* We've been largely left alone to develop and make our own choices* That changed with nuclear weapons - when the bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the effects rippled through quantum fields across the universe, affecting beings everywhere* This triggered intervention - not control, but assistance from various cosmic intelligences who recognized that “the children found the matches”The Living Library ConceptThrough my experience as a intuitive and Akashic Reader, just as the astral has a library of resonance - the Earth is also a “living library” - for every animal species on this planet, there exists an extraterrestrial race that resembles it. This planet was seeded with incredible biodiversity as a kind of cosmic repository.The Hybridization ProgramsThere are ongoing programs creating human-extraterrestrial hybrid children. Some live on ships, others on Earth. The purpose isn't sinister - it's about creating beings who can be a genetic and frequency match for where Earth is heading, since not all current humans will be able to adapt to the higher frequencies.The Timeline We're InWe're currently about 75-78% through an 18-year window (2012-2030) that represents the most significant consciousness expansion in human history.Key markers “suggested”* 1987 (Harmonic Convergence): The starting gun for this shift* 2012: Earth/Gaia herself ascended; karmic laws that had been held in the grids were released* 2025: A year of pushing through density and difficulty - necessary preparation* 2026: A “one year” in numerology - about renewal, not repair; what we create this year sets the cycle for where we're heading through 2030* 2030: The completion of this particular ascension windowThe 3D/5D SplitRather than everyone moving to “5D” as a destination, what's actually happening is more nuanced:* Multiple dimensions exist simultaneously (it's called “multi-dimensional” for a reason)* We fluctuate through various density perspectives constantly* The 3D and 5D “timelines” are being pulled apart - people will increasingly experience very different realities based on their frequencyThe Human Hybridization HistoryOur DNA carries contributions from multiple cosmic sources:The Anunnaki (approximately 350,000 years ago): The primary encoders who created a significant jump in human evolution. They contributed what's called “Enki's gift” - dormant potential in our DNA that's now reactivating. RH negative blood is Anunnaki blood, which explains why RH negative women sometimes have difficulty conceiving - that blood carries programming that resists mixing with the standard human genome.The Pleiadian's contributed quantum aspects to our chromosomes.It's why we process in 12's and 24's. This isn't arbitrary - it's genetic encoding from these cosmic ancestors that determines how we can perceive dimensional realities. Currently, we can only process up to 12 dimensions; expanding beyond that will take approximately 3,000 more years of evolution.Practical Wisdom for Navigating This TimeHOW IT EFFECTS OUR NERVOUS SYSTEM AND MENTAL HEALTHWhen powerful energy waves hit Earth, many people experience anxiety spikes. Here's why:The brain's synapses can't always handle the acceleration of these frequencies. When the mind can't process what's happening, it spirals into fear responses - “I'm being attacked,” “something terrible is happening.” This creates anxiety that feels sourceless.The solution?Self compassion and for the love of God, get off social media. Ground yourself. Stay in your heart rather than your head. The heart processes feeling and compassion; the mind processes logic and fear. During intense energy periods, the heart is your anchor.The Self-Love ParadoxTrue self-love isn't “love and light” without boundaries. That's actually toxic because it:* Doesn't create self-worth* Doesn't allow you to know yourself* Avoids the necessary work of integrationReal self-love means:* Discovering the parts of yourself you've rejected* Learning to love what you've pushed into shadow* Integrating these aspects* Setting firm, compassionate boundaries with othersThe Awakening TruthAwakening isn't awakening to love and light - it's awakening to your trauma. You cannot skip straight to being an “ascended being” without walking through all your density. There are no shortcuts. You have to run the marathon.Key Principles for This Time* Go within, not without - All answers exist inside you. External teachers and resources are helpful, but they're not necessary if you can access your own inner knowing.* Feel, don't think - You don't think energy; you feel it. The ego wants timelines and logic; source wants to guide you through feeling and authenticity.* Surrender, don't trust - Trust is conditional (”I'll do my part if you do yours”). Surrender is unconditional allowing.* Internalize, don't externalize - Stop projecting onto external mirrors. Learn from what life shows you by looking inward.* Stay in compassionate detachment - Observe without judgment. Detach without disconnecting.* Release victimhood - The belief that “rogue aliens did this to us” or “we have no free will” is the ego avoiding responsibility. Starseeds and lightworkers are just as powerful as any cosmic being - they simply don't believe it yet.The Deeper MeaningThe purpose of this entire journey? To allow source - your higher self, your soul - to work through you in a state of non-resistance, creating healing and synchronicity for yourself and everything around you.We're not just passive recipients of cosmic change. We're active participants in ascending a planet - something that's never been done quite this way before.The “great experiment” is seeing if a free-will planet can raise its consciousness collectively, and we're well ahead of schedule.The work isn't easy. It requires releasing everything built from fear, trauma, and conditioning. It means becoming unrecognizable to those who knew the old version of you. It often means losing relationships that can't match your new frequency.But it's also the most profound opportunity any soul could choose - to be here, now, participating in this transformation.Stay in your hearts. Where your heart is, where your feeling is, where your compassion is - that's where we save each other. I truly believe every single soul here without question becomes free.Love, KassandraPS: If this lit up your heart and mind to go deeper into infinite love, then I'd love for you to experience the LIGHT BETWEEN ORACLE.

And now your hosts.  Allen Hall 2025: Welcome to the Uptime Wind Energy Podcast. I’m your host Alan Hall, and I’m here with Yolanda Padron, Rosemary Barnes and Matthew Stead. Yolanda and Matthew have just wrapped up a couple of days at the Blade USA forum in Austin, Texas. Maybe we should start there. Thoughts on the forum this year? Things that were highlights?  Matthew Stead: Yeah. Lightning Root de bond. One positive was that, um, there are a couple of startups there, so, you know, kudos to them for, you know, making the investment. There was a. There was a startup around, you know, data analytics and, you know, bringing machine learning in. And then there was also another startup looking at recycling. [00:01:00] Um, really trying to get that, that food chain through of, um, you know, grinding and then turning into some sort of valuable product. Um, yeah. However, I think someone also from EPRI said that, you know, at the moment, you know, the recycling path is, you know, eight times more expensive than the, um, the landfill path. There was a lot of carbon discussion actually. So, and, um, yeah, a lot of discussion about repairs, a lot of discussion about testing, uh, a lot of discussion about, you know, how maybe a carbon blade can last 40 years. Um, so a lot of discussion about lifetime extensions around carbon. Um, but, but, but, but, you know, really, really hard to repair.  Allen Hall 2025: That goes back to the comments Rosemary and Morton Hanberg made about carbon blades. Should we be making. Carbon blades are not. And I think Morton’s opinion, and maybe Rosemary’s, I don’t wanna speak for her, was carbon blades are okay, but they are really difficult to repair. Almost impossible to repair. And is it [00:02:00] worth even building them?  Rosemary Barnes: I think if you consider the blade in isolation, then it probably is adding more headaches than it’s worth. But carbon fiber is a bit of an enabler for improvements across the whole system of a, a wind turbine. ’cause when you take, like you can take a lot of weight out of a blade by using carbon fiber. I mean, it’s never been cheaper to make a blade with carbon fiber than an equivalent blade with glass. You do, you buy the more expensive carbon fiber blade because it’s lighter, a like, a lot lighter, and then you can take, um, weight. It, it reduces the requirements for basically every other component in the wind turbine, but especially stuff like the pitch bearings. Um, so you solve a lot of other problems, but you create blade problems. So. I think if you ask some of the only works on maintaining blades, then you’re gonna be like, why would you make a carbon fiber blade? It is so much headache. Um, but that’s not the reason why they were ever made in the first place. [00:03:00] So you’d need to talk to, you know, somebody on, uh, I dunno, front end engineering. Someone from the sales team about why it is that they are going with a more expensive carbon fiber blade. Even acknowledging that they probably underestimate how many problems there are with o and m with, uh, carbon fiber blades. But even so, like they’re already aware that there are trade offs. Um, and yeah, there’s non blade reasons for, for taking, taking that pain.  Allen Hall 2025: Are there other fibers that could be substituted besides carbon? There, I, I know fiberglass. A, a good, relatively strong fiber and carbon obviously is much stronger. But are there things in the middle that could be substituted that are non-conductive? Rosemary Barnes: Uh, y yeah, there are, but carbon fibers, it’s not just strong. It’s really stiff. And that’s what its benefit is. Um, like there’s Kevlar but it’s not very stiff. So you would, we would make a really heavy blade if you used Kevlar. It would be probably bulletproof though. So I guess that would be a plus. I, I haven’t looked into it recently, but nothing is [00:04:00] at the, um, like got the performance specs and the cost specs that you would need to, um, make it replace carbon fiber. Matthew Stead: So one thing that I picked up I thought was pretty, uh, interesting was that by having a stronger, you know, carbon protrusion, you know, the, you know, the backbone of the blade, um, it took a little bit of pressure off the skin. And so therefore, um, you know, the life, life of the blade, um, and the ability to keep running it ’cause the skin is not so critical. Those seem to be a real, a real plus as well.  Rosemary Barnes: I don’t know, people talk about this in like absolutes, but everything is just a con continuum, right? Like you can make an all glass blade that would last a thousand years if you really wanted to. You just, you know, you just have to make it very, very strong. ’cause it’s, you know, it’s all based on fatigue lifetime. And the smaller that your, um, strain on every component in the blade is, then the less, um, the less fatigue damage is gonna accumulate. Making it a little bit stiffer will actually increase the lifetime by [00:05:00] a a lot. I think the main benefit to protrusions is just that you avoid all of the um, or you avoid a lot of the possibilities for manufacturing defects. It’s easy to control the manufacture ’cause carbon fiber, like much more so than glass fiber. It’s so, um, it’s so dependent on the fibers being perfectly straight. If you have a little wrinkle, like a little wrinkle is bad in glass fiber, but it’s like really bad in carbon fiber. So protrusions mean that you won’t get wrinkles. Uh, and you can, you know, control the manufacturing process a lot better, but they are barely repairable, right? So that’s the trade off. You can do some small repairs, but you’re not gonna be just. Um, if you’ve got a, a, a full thickness crack or something, it’s, you know, it’s gonna be game over. You’re not gonna be building that up again. Allen Hall 2025: Delamination and bottomline failures and blades are difficult problems to [00:06:00] detect early. These hidden issues can cost you millions in repairs and lost energy production. C-I-C-N-D-T are specialists to detect these critical flaws before they become expensive burdens. Their non-destructive test technology penetrates deep to blade materials to find voids and cracks. Traditional inspections, completely. Miss C-I-C-N-D-T Maps. Every critical defect delivers actionable reports and provides support to get your blades. Back in service, so visit cic ndt.com because catching blade problems early  Yolanda Padron: will save you millions.  Allen Hall 2025: Well keep going on the, the subject of blades. Imagine if you were selling your house and you told the bank you owe nothing on it. Then the bank shows up with a bill for over a hundred million dollars. That is essentially what’s happening right now in the TPI composites bankruptcy. Uh, the wind blade manufacturer canceled its [00:07:00] February 17th asset auction after only one bidder came forward. A firm called ECP five LLC, which is, uh, part of Energy Capital Partners, which is based in New Jersey. Uh, but before TPI. Can hand over the keys. It has to settle up with its business partners. TPI told the court many of those partners were owed little or nothing. Uh, the partners check their books. Strongly disagree. Now, the judge has a mountain of competing claims to sort through before the sale can close. And everyone, I mean, the, the claims are big. Uh, there are several large names listed, and if you go through the filings, uh, Siemens C Mesa is probably the largest one, and it, it claims TPI owes about 84 million plus an unpaid inspection, repair, and replacement costs. Plus under 22 million [00:08:00]under apparent guarantee. Others include Aurora Energy Services stating it is owned about $5 million, uh, for post-bankruptcy services, plus 38,000, uh, for before the filing of bankruptcy. The landlord up in Iowa for the TPI facility there is objecting because they’re owed some rent. Some other ones include, uh. Oracle, uh, which is, uh, has a lot of software licenses that TPI currently has, and they’re saying those licenses will not swap over to the new owner. So there, this is a series of these filings going on at the minute, and they’re pushing back the closing of the, uh, sale hearing until March 9th. So they got about another two weeks as we record right now. This is a big deal and, and although I have seen almost nothing about it in the press. Because it’s hard. One, it’s hard to find, and two, it’s really [00:09:00] difficult to sort through. Uh, but it is a major milestone for TPI that they’re gonna be able to sell the, or at least transfer ownership to, uh, energy capital partners. And the none of the buyers investors had bought part of the facilities. But GE Renova or Siemens cesa, for that matter, are not involved, at least at the top level. Which is really to, in my opinion, odd. I thought GE Renova would’ve been involved, at least at some level. They have been supporting TPI through this process. But in terms of going forward, doesn’t look like too much is going on with Renova or Siemens Ga Mesa in, in terms of the operations of these facilities. Thoughts.  Rosemary Barnes: Yeah, I agree. It’s strange that they wouldn’t have taken that opportunity and that makes me wonder what I don’t know that, you know, ’cause obviously it’s not a strange decision to the people who have made it so. They’ve got more information, a lot more information than us. So what is it that made it unappealing to them? That’s, um, that’s my question. [00:10:00] Yolanda Padron: What did TP, I think was gonna happen with all of that money that they owe everyone?  Allen Hall 2025: Well, it’s a bankruptcy hearing. Obviously they like to wipe that debt free and so would Energy Capital partners. They don’t wanna pay the a hundred million plus of whatever, uh, the court would ict, but. You just like to get the assets. If you can do it, that’s your cheapest option if you’re Energy Capital partners. But do you see Energy Capital Partners running the facilities? There’s a lot of organization within TPI that manages those facilities and controls the operation. From the quality side engineering side, there’s, there’s a lot of pieces to TPI here. Do you think they’re just gonna pick it up and run, run the company as it stands today? Or, or,  Rosemary Barnes: oh my goodness. I would be so nervous to, um, buy blades, uh, from them in that situation. I mean, we’ve seen so many examples in the last few years of decisions being made by senior management that have really compromised the quality at the end of the day. Like in theory, yes, the factory, you know, all the processes are in place to do things. Um, to do things [00:11:00] right, but you know, as soon as they get the next new project, which they’re doing constantly, right? It’s not like they just make a blade and they just make it over and over again. They make many different kinds of blades. There’s decisions to be made and you’re trying to get the price right and the quality right. And then, you know, given that we know that TPI was not profitable the way they were doing it before, they’re gonna have to spend less money. Then somebody who isn’t from the industry is making those calls about where to save it. It just seems like totally implausible to me.  Matthew Stead: Can I just add though, you know, TPI was mentioned multiple times at, um, at Blades, USA, and so, you know, a lot of people are relying on them or have relied on them and so forth. And so maybe this is a strategy about supporting the industry into the future. Like I think Alan, you, you said that they’re involved in, um, this investment business has other wind assets, so maybe it’s just like. Securing supply chain and, which I mean, that’s a pretty logical approach, isn’t it?  Allen Hall 2025: Oh, it would be. Uh, they’re about 50% owners of Ted’s US onshore fleet and a number. There are [00:12:00] other projects they’re involved in a number of renewable projects. Uh, so it would make sense for them to try to keep the supply chain going. But the largest purchaser of GB GE turbines that I know of is NextEra. So you would think NextEra would want to step into the mix too and at least in all the court filings, I haven’t seen much from NextEra or nothing from them at all. It if Osted US is wanting to keep their supply chain and Energy Capital partners wanted to keep the supply chain going, that would make a lot of sense to me. However, I just don’t know if they have the infrastructure to manage it. As Rosemary has described on numerous occasions running LM wind power is not easy. There’s just a lot of moving pieces, supply chain problems. You’ve got people problems, you have quality problems, you have repair problems, warranty issues. It’s a lot to that business. It isn’t like you’re stamping out widgets. You, you have a responsibility to that product after it goes out into [00:13:00] service. So if you have problems out in service, you’re, you’re kind of on the hook for all those warranty claims. It’s complicated.  Rosemary Barnes: You make it sound like I was running lm  Yolanda Padron: Rosie runs the world. Rosemary Barnes: I just wanna make it clear I was not running lm  Allen Hall 2025: Not yet. Rosie. There’s still time.  Rosemary Barnes: I was ru running one very tiny, tiny corner of it.  Yolanda Padron: I’d almost be curious ’cause like since ECP is so much into risk management and just, just in general, they have so many things that they are like part owners in, but they don’t necessarily manage the day to day hands on. Uh. I’d almost be curious to see if maybe they take a page out of Rosie’s book and try to make one thing. Well,  Matthew Stead: mm, that’d be novel, wouldn’t it?  Rosemary Barnes: It has actually been tried before. Um, you know, it’s, it’s uh, not something that has escaped the notice of blade engineers, uh, that if you make one thing, you can do it right. And wind turbine blades are a pretty similar there. No, you know, like great [00:14:00] differentiator between. How well performing the blades are from one company to another. I know at, at least at lm, they did have a blade that they designed, and their plan was to sell just heaps and heaps of those to multiple different manufacturers and just no one wanted it. Um, so it just quietly died. Um, so yeah, the, the concept is good. I think it’s. A little bit harder to pull off than you would hope. There are also some Chinese companies that are kind of selling just parts, generic parts. And so if you wanted to make your own wind turbine, um, company, if you wanted to be a wind energy o and m Yolanda, you could just buy an assortment of parts from Chinese manufacturers and put a. Yolanda Wind energy sticker on it and um, and, and, and you could be an an OEM. So it is, it, it, it is possible. I haven’t seen any of these out in the wild. Um, I have [00:15:00] heard of, you know, people considering it for, you know, certain aspects of certain types of projects. So it kind of exists in a way.  Matthew Stead: But the financial aspect, I mean, that’s accounting 1 0 1, I mean. You gotta know your assets and to owe people a hundred million dollars, that’s absolutely shocking. Really?  Allen Hall 2025: They owed a lot more than that before the bankruptcy. It is a lot of money.  Matthew Stead: How do you miss that?  Allen Hall 2025: Well, I don’t think they missed it. I just think the warranty claims and some of the repair that was going on and the, the, it sounded like price discounting was happening to some of the OEMs just caught up to ’em. But at the end of the day, I, I, I guess the question is. Does TPI as an entity remain? Obviously the Vestas portion will, because Vestas is gonna make them Vestas factories in a sense, and, uh, integrate as part of their overall operations. But Renova is not, Siemens is not interested in doing it, at least as we speak. No one’s [00:16:00] making any noise over at Nordex. It, it does leave these assets questionable as to what the real value is. We haven’t heard how much, uh, ECP has paid for them yet. The Vestas factories that were purchased, I think the, the two TPI factories in Mexico, I think Vestas paid about $10 million for each factory, which is a really inexpensive price to pay for new factories because Vestus had talked about at one point a year or two ago, about standing up a new factory saying it would cost him roughly a half a billion dollars to do. So buying a, that same asset for $10 million is a discount, a deep, deep discount, which maybe Vestas figures, Hey, it’s 20 million bucks, plus they got the India operations. Uh, it’s not that much money. If it all goes sour, it’s not that much money and we’re okay. Whereas Ver Nova decided to not to participate in that. As wind energy professionals, staying informed is crucial, and let’s face it difficult. That’s why [00:17:00] the Uptime podcast recommends PES Wind Magazine. PES Wind offers a diverse range of in-depth articles and expert insights that dive into the most pressing issues facing our energy future. Whether you’re an industry veteran or new to wind, PES Wind has the high quality content you need. Don’t miss out. Visit p ps wind.com. Today, over in Denmark, a fight has been brewing between offshore and onshore wind developers and. Sted once State Aid brought back for offshore wind auctions, onshore developers say that would tilt the playing field against them. Well, some have even walked out on their own trade group, uh, over it. Now the new CEO of Wind Europe, Tina Van Stratton, uh, is stepping in the middle of that discussion with a simple message. We need both. Don’t let offshore and onshore wind divide us. Nearly 90% of Europe’s installed wind capacity sits currently on land, and [00:18:00] she says that is not going to change anytime soon. Uh, so there, there is a big dispute about this right there. There does seem to be a, a amount of money being poured into offshore wind and requests of governments to support offshore wind at the same time. Onshore wind, which has been the primary growth market for wind in Europe, is getting the cold shoulder. In a sense. How does this play out everyone? Is there a, a good solution to it or is the need for offshore wind so great that, that they have to ignore onshore wind development for a couple of years?  Matthew Stead: I think we should just all be friends. So, I mean, really. Yeah, we need both and, um, I mean for the diversity and, you know, uh, I’ll leave all the technical topics to Rosie, but, um, um, really I think we need both. I mean, so what, it’d be crazy to, to drop the onshore, onshore industry.  Yolanda Padron: Yeah. I mean, it makes sense that, or said, especially Orid Europe doesn’t have any onshore anymore. Right. So it’s just [00:19:00]offshore. It would make sense that they really wanna push for help for themselves. And it’s, it’s great. It, it’s, it’s great to help, but I, I agree with Matt. Allen Hall 2025: Well, the Northern Europe and Scandinavian countries are talking about 100 gigawatts in the water by what, 2050? Something of that sort. So that’s a lot of energy in the water. In order to do that, you have to devote a number of resources to it, which. Will mean onshore wind is not gonna get the support it probably deserves, even though it has a proven track record. Rosemary Barnes: I just think it, it’s really interesting because I guess wind is, um, a very Europe. LED industry. Um, and so yeah, in Europe, e everything big and exciting is in offshore and the volume is in offshore. Um, I feel like that’s kind of filtered through to other regions though, because I mean, in Australia we don’t even have any offshore wind yet. We are probably getting some, but you go to any wind energy event, it’s gonna be. [00:20:00] More than 50% offshore wind and sometimes like 90% offshore wind, um, focused, which is, I think crazy when onshore is, is exists and has plenty of problems that need to be solved, and we need to be building more, a lot faster. I, I do actually wish that. If we could spend as much of the, you know, like some of the effort and the political effort that’s going into paving the way for offshore wind, I think would be much better spent on solving the problems. Um, the obstacles stopping us from rolling out onshore wind faster. Because we’re not on track in Australia to meet our renewable energy targets if we can’t get that under control. And then in the US yes you have some offshore wind, but it is not a growth industry at the moment or it’s not very appealing at the moment, at least. Right. So, and I dunno how much you talk about it there, but I do hear a lot of, like a whole lot of talk about offshore compared to how important it is for regions outside of Europe. Yolanda Padron: I think it’s important too to [00:21:00] note that. When you have a lot of offshore wind in your fleet, like you can sometimes test out products onshore that maybe they’re, of course not the exact same conditions, but you can test out products to a degree onshore. And I’ve seen, you know, owner operators that have to go across continents just to test that product because it’s cheaper to do that onshore than to do it offshore in your home site, in your backyard. So I mean that that would really benefit from an RD standpoint. It would really benefit everyone. If  Allen Hall 2025: they gave it up attention  Yolanda Padron: to onshore.  Rosemary Barnes: When I was at lm, one of my, well my key team member who was an electrical engineer, he had, um, done a bunch of work for a system that was only implemented on an offshore wind farm. And it sucked up so much time when stuff started going wrong with that, like even small things. And he was the only one [00:22:00] that could do it. You know, you go out, if you’ve got a five minute job to do, to get, you know, like turn something off and on again off. Reconnect something that’s a whole day of work, right? Like you, and, and not like a normal day, but like a 12 hour day, you’re gonna go out in the morning, they, you know, they go around in a boat or whatever and drop people off and they don’t come get you when you’re done 10 minutes later, you know, they come get you at the end of the day when they’re picking everyone up again. So, um, it, it was, it was incredibly challenging. I mean, for him personally and the team. Um, and I always recommend to, or, you know, sometimes I’m advising, um, companies that have offshore wind, um, technologies. And I’m always advising anything that you can test on shore, do it and get creative about it as well. ’cause you might think that you can’t, you certainly can’t get all the way there without testing in your real operating environment. But any problem that could happen onshore that you, um, learn about when it’s onshore is gonna cost you probably like, you know, one 10th as much [00:23:00] to fix. Um. So, and, and the time as well. So, yeah, I, I think that you’re right that we should be actually considering onshore as an opportunity for, um, improving offshore technology as well.  Allen Hall 2025: Can we talk about, uh, data centers for a minute? Just off the top of mind, I’ve been listening to a number of podcasts over the last month or two talking about powering AI data centers and how much coal or natural gas. It’s gonna be needed to provide the stable, reliable power that these data centers supposedly need. In the meantime, there’s like this industry being built, uh, and you see the, the purchases of gas turbines going out to like, what, 2032? I think it’s what Renova is talking about now is when you could actually get in line for a gas turbine. Other manufacturers or gas turbines are basically saying the same thing in the meantime. [00:24:00] Elon Musk and SpaceX are talking about putting AI data centers up in space where you don’t have any regulatory issues. You don’t have to burn coal or natural gas or any of these things. So the, the ground-based AI data centers appear to be locked into making these really expensive buildings and assets and putting generation and transmission and, and this infrastructure together, which will cost them. Hundreds of millions at a minimum, likely tens of billions of dollars to do, and that’s just in the United States. Meanwhile, SpaceX is really on a pathway of doing this up in the sky for probably a fraction of the cost. Is there a break point here? Because it does seem like the, the natural gas, coal, oil, petroleum industry and the on ground build, the building, people are ignoring that. SpaceX has a [00:25:00] capability of doing this, and if Musk decides to do it, and SpaceX decides to do it, that all those gas turbine orders, all that infrastructure, all the gas pipeline, all the drilling that would have to happen would just go immediately. Poof. Gone.  Rosemary Barnes: I don’t know about immediately because I mean, we’re not at the point yet where you can just launch a data center into space. So there is a bit of a, a, a transition period. Um, I. I also think that it’s overblown that, you know, I think you might have even fallen into the trap also, where you’re like, oh, when data centers need more energy, so therefore it has to be coal or gas or nuclear.  Allen Hall 2025: Nope, I agree with you.  Rosemary Barnes: Those things aren’t quick to build either. If you truly wanted to do it quickly, you’d be putting in, um, you know, heaps of solar panels and batteries and, and you know, wind turbines where that made sense. But that said, I, I do agree that, uh, like I, I don’t think space-based data centers is farfetched at all. I, I guess the biggest [00:26:00] challenges, uh, are, um, the cooling and heating requirements space has very large temperature fluctuations. So I guess you’re gonna need to design that carefully. I don’t think it’s insurmountable. Um, and then the next thing is a cost of launch, which I’m sure you’re about to tell me how. Dramatically the cost of launch is dropping. Um, you know, like, it, it’s got, it’s got a very good learning curve. The space launches, which is basically, you know, SpaceX is probably the main reason why that is just dropping and dropping and dropping. So I don’t think that it’s unrealistic at all. I don’t know the timeframe. You would know more, Alan, you work in, um, aerospace. I just. You know, um, follow it for general interest.  Matthew Stead: I reckon it’s stupid. He’s really stupid on a number of grounds. So first of all, you know, why do that when. You just, I can’t see how it can ever be more cost effective and you know, [00:27:00] I, you know, you should really, should be putting that effort into things like, you know, better healthcare and so forth. I mean, what a waste of resources. But why? I mean, why, why?  Allen Hall 2025: Because it’s a lot less expensive and it’s faster.  Matthew Stead: You’d do it in the ocean before that, wouldn’t you?  Rosemary Barnes: No, but the ocean still has, like how do you power it? You, you get the 24 7 solar power in space. That’s what you. That’s what you get, um, which you can’t get on Earth  Matthew Stead: or you put it next to a wind farm and you, you, and you make the load go up and down depending on the wind. I mean, seriously, there’s so many other ways of doing it. You put it next to a wind and solar.  Rosemary Barnes: I agree with you, Matt, that I think that the, the bulk of the solutions with data centers is gonna come from one demand not being what people think it is today. Like the numbers that get reported are just like the. Absolute best, best, best case scenario and then multiplied by three or four times because they’re looking at different options for locating each of the data centers they plan to make. So I think I wouldn’t be surprised if we end up with 10% of what people think that we’re gonna get. [00:28:00] Now, the first thing, secondly, people assume that it needs to be 24 7. Just, you know, like a hundred percent reliable power, and that’s. That’s simply, yeah, it’s not, not everything needs to be just, um, you know, done at, at the exact time that it’s requested. There’s heaps of things that can be shifted and uh, when the price differential is there, then people are naturally going to choose that. And in fact, there are already some companies offering different levels of reliability depend, you know, for different prices. And companies can choose which of their processes can be put on hold. Like a lot of the training stuff, you’re happy don’t. Need 99.999% reliability, you’re probably happy with 90% reliability. And so, you know, if it costs a whole lot less than you will, I, I agree with you, Matt, that that’s gonna take most of it. But I do still think that for the, like, super reliable, um, data centers, I, I bet that we see at least one. And even if it’s just because Elon Musk is the type to push something through, um, you know, [00:29:00] first and. Wait for the market to catch up later. Uh, maybe that will be the reason, but I, I honestly think it’s more than 50% likely that we see a data center in space in the next, in the next decade,  Matthew Stead: it would make more sense to like drill a hole to the center of the earth and get the, the hot well cutting rock  Rosemary Barnes: and or there’s also plenty of geothermal. You did thermal projects as well.  Matthew Stead: Yeah, it’s just ridiculous.  Rosemary Barnes: I think that we’ve had our first hot take from Matthew, so I don’t know some sort of sound effect to be added here.

Story Transcript:Da: Det kolde vinterlandskab langs Danmarks kyst glitrede i den svage sol.En: The cold winter landscape along Danmark's coast glittered in the weak sun.Da: Bilen gled stille fremad, og vinden pressede sig mod dens sider.En: The car glided quietly forward, and the wind pressed against its sides.Da: Freja og Søren var på vej.En: Freja and Søren were on their way.Da: Freja sad i passagersædet og stirrede ud på de brusende bølger, der slog mod klipperne.En: Freja sat in the passenger seat, staring out at the crashing waves that pounded against the rocks.Da: Hendes tanker fløj.En: Her thoughts soared.Da: I hendes lomme lå brevet, som hun desperat behøvede at levere.En: In her pocket lay the letter she desperately needed to deliver.Da: Søren styrede bilen med rolig hånd.En: Søren steered the car with a calm hand.Da: "Er du klar til det her, Freja?"En: "Are you ready for this, Freja?"Da: spurgte han blidt.En: he asked gently.Da: Han vidste, hvor meget hendes søster betød for hende, selvom de to havde været fremmede for hinanden i årevis.En: He knew how much her sister meant to her, even though the two had been estranged for years.Da: "Jeg ved det ikke," svarede Freja.En: "I don't know," Freja replied.Da: "Men jeg er nødt til at prøve.En: "But I have to try.Da: Tiden løber ud."En: Time is running out."Da: Vejret var ubarmhjertigt.En: The weather was relentless.Da: Sne blandet med regn gjorde vejene glatte, men Søren holdt fast ved rattet.En: Snow mixed with rain made the roads slippery, but Søren held onto the wheel.Da: De havde kun et par timer tilbage, inden stormen ville ramme for alvor.En: They had only a couple of hours left before the storm would hit in earnest.Da: Men for Freja var hver kilometer fyldt med frygt og håb.En: But for Freja, every mile was filled with fear and hope.Da: Hvad ville hendes søster sige?En: What would her sister say?Da: Efterhånden som de nærmede sig byen, hvor Frejas søster boede, blev Freja mere anspændt.En: As they approached the town where Freja's sister lived, Freja became more tense.Da: Tankerne om, hvordan mødet kunne gå galt, kørte rundt i hendes hoved.En: Thoughts of how the meeting could go wrong swirled in her mind.Da: "Måske burde jeg bare efterlade brevet," overvejede hun højt.En: "Maybe I should just leave the letter," she pondered aloud.Da: Søren kiggede hurtigt på hende, mens han holdt øjnene på vejen.En: Søren glanced at her quickly while keeping his eyes on the road.Da: "Du har ventet længe på denne chance.En: "You've waited a long time for this chance.Da: Møde hende.En: To meet her.Da: Fortælle hende, hvordan du har det."En: To tell her how you feel."Da: Freja nikkede, men hendes usikkerhed rev i hende.En: Freja nodded, but her uncertainty tugged at her.Da: Med Søren ved sin side nærmede de sig huset.En: With Søren by her side, they neared the house.Da: Kystbyen var rolig, men det lurende uvejr kunne mærkes i den bidende luft.En: The coastal town was calm, but the looming storm could be felt in the biting air.Da: De parkerede bilen, og Frejas hjerte bankede hårdt.En: They parked the car, and Freja's heart pounded hard.Da: Med brevet i hånden gik Freja mod døren.En: With the letter in hand, Freja walked toward the door.Da: Hver skridt føltes tungt.En: Each step felt heavy.Da: Da hun bankede, kunne hun næsten høre sit eget hjerte slå i takt med lyden.En: When she knocked, she could almost hear her own heart beating in time with the sound.Da: Døren åbnede sig langsomt, og hendes søster stod dér.En: The door opened slowly, and her sister stood there.Da: De stirrede på hinanden et øjeblik, et mix af overraskelse og gensyn.En: They stared at each other for a moment, a mix of surprise and reunion.Da: Freja tog en dyb indånding og rakte brevet frem.En: Freja took a deep breath and held out the letter.Da: "Det her.En: "This.Da: Det er fra mig," hviskede hun.En: It's from me," she whispered.Da: Hendes søster tog imod det, tøvende men nysgerrig.En: Her sister accepted it, hesitant but curious.Da: De mange år af tavshed lå imellem dem, men også en usynlig tråd af håb om forståelse.En: Many years of silence lay between them, but also an invisible thread of hope for understanding.Da: Freja begyndte at tale, med ord der havde ventet på at blive sagt.En: Freja began to speak, with words that had waited to be said.Da: I starten var der kun stille nik, men da timerne gik, blev ordene flere.En: At first, there were only quiet nods, but as the hours passed, the words grew.Da: De endte med at omfavne hinanden.En: They ended up embracing each other.Da: Tårerne strømmede ned ad deres kinder, mens de begge indså, at fortiden ikke skulle definere deres fremtid.En: Tears streamed down their cheeks, as they both realized that the past should not define their future.Da: Rejsen mod tilgivelse begyndte.En: The journey towards forgiveness began.Da: Freja trådte tilbage til Søren.En: Freja stepped back to Søren.Da: "Hvordan gik det?"En: "How did it go?"Da: spurgte han blidt.En: he asked gently.Da: Hun smilede for første gang den dag.En: She smiled for the first time that day.Da: "Vi er enige om at give det en chance," sagde hun, nu lettere om hjertet.En: "We've agreed to give it a chance," she said, feeling lighter at heart.Da: Søren nikkede.En: Søren nodded.Da: Han startede bilen, og de kørte tilbage ad den kolde, men nu så klare kystvej.En: He started the car, and they drove back along the cold, but now so clear, coastal road.Da: Freja indså, at hun havde efterladt en del af sin fortid der, blandt vinterens sidste spor, og returnerede med muligheden for at skabe noget nyt.En: Freja realized she had left a part of her past there, among the last traces of winter, and returned with the possibility to create something new.Da: Fremtiden ventede, åben som kystlinjen foran dem.En: The future awaited, open as the coastline before them.

The Identity We Build Through Movement. So, two days ago I was talking with my closest childhood friends kiddo about their knee injury and how that has affected them not just physically but also mentally and emotionally and that conversation is what inspired this episode. It made me think of how many of us grow up with a sport or a physical activity that becomes part of who we are.“I'm a runner.”“I'm a swimmer.”“I'm a dancer.”“I'm a lifter.”“I'm a soccer player, I'm a baseball player.”,It's not just something we do, it literally becomes part of our identity, our community, our routine, our confidence, even our emotional regulation. But what happens when an injury forces us to step back… or step away entirely? That's what we're talking about today: How to cope when your body asks you to shift your identity and how to rebuild without losing yourself. SEGMENT 1: Why Sports Become Part of Our IdentitySports and movement shape identity because they give us:• Structure: practices, routines, goals• Community: teammates, coaches, shared struggle• Competence: the feeling of “I'm good at this”• Purpose: something to work toward• Emotion regulation: stress relief, confidence, grounding• Belonging: being part of something biggerWhen you lose access to that, even temporarily, it can feel like grief. Not dramatic grief. Real grief. You're not just losing a sport. You're losing a version of yourself and that deserves compassion, not pressure.SEGMENT 2: The Emotional Impact of InjuryInjury isn't just physical. It affects:• Identity (“Who am I without this?”)• Routine (“What do I do with my time now?”)• Confidence (“My body let me down.”)• Connection (“I'm not with my team anymore.”)• Mood (movement boosts serotonin and dopamine, losing it hits hard)People often feel:• Frustration• Sadness• Anger• Fear of losing progress• Fear of being “left behind”• Shame about slowing downThese feelings are normal. They don't mean you're weak, they mean you're human.SEGMENT 3: The Shift, Separating Identity From ActivityYou are not your sport. You are the qualities your sport helped you develop.Your identity isn't “runner.” It's:• disciplined• resilient• focused• determined• consistent• community‑orientedYour identity isn't “baseball player.” It's:• strategic• hardworking• team‑minded• competitive in a healthy way• adaptableYour sport was the vehicle. Those qualities are the engine and engines can power new vehicles.SEGMENT 4: How to Rebuild Identity After InjuryHere are 5 steps:  Acknowledge the loss. Say it out loud: “This is hard. I miss what I had.” Naming it reduces shame.Shift from “What can't I do?” to “What can I still do?” Maybe you can't sprint, but you can walk. Maybe you can't lift heavy but you can do mobility. Maybe you can't play your sport but you can coach, teach, or support others.Explore new forms of movement. Not as replacements, as expansions. Try things like swimming, yoga, cycling, Pilates, walking groups, dance, strength training, low‑impact cardio. Let curiosity lead instead of comparison.Reconnect with the feeling your sport gave you. Ask yourself, “What did my sport make me feel?”, free? strong? connected? focused? calm? Then find movement that recreates that feeling even if it looks different.Build a new narrative. Instead of “I used to be an athlete,” try, “I'm evolving as an athlete.” “I'm learning new ways to move.” “I'm expanding my identity.”SEGMENT 5: A Guided ReflectionTake a breath with me. Think about the sport you loved. Think about what it gave you. Think about the version of yourself that grew through it. Now ask yourself:• What qualities did that sport bring out in me?• Which of those qualities still live in me today?• How can I express those qualities in new ways?• What kind of movement feels supportive for the body I have right now?You're not starting over. You're continuing, just on a different path.You're More Than One Chapter. Your sport shaped you, but it didn't define you. Your injury changed your path, but it didn't end your story. You are still an athlete. You are still strong.

Check out the Companion Video for this podcast: https://youtu.be/px_yXi62N1k Are you eating keto or carnivore… but still feeling stressed, tired, disconnected, or overwhelmed? In today's episode of the 2KK Uncensored Podcast, Joe and Rachel go beyond food and into something deeper: ancestral living. Because here's the truth: you can eat ancestrally at the fork, but if your sleep, stress, movement, attention, identity, and environment are completely modern — your health will suffer. We talk all the time about eating meat, lowering carbs, and focusing on real food. But what if the missing piece isn't more protein… it's how you live? In this episode, we unpack: • Why eating carnivore isn't the same as living ancestrally • The hidden stress of 24-hour news cycles and constant global awareness • How modern convenience is quietly destroying resilience • Why multitasking is a myth (and how fragmented attention impacts your nervous system) • The importance of true rest vs. screen-time "recovery" • Why sleep environment matters more than you think • How outsourcing everything weakens competence and confidence • The lost art of hunting, gathering, and appreciating your food supply • Why children today are missing key developmental experiences • The danger of replacing real community with digital belonging • How social media conflict is reshaping relationships and families • Why discomfort, delayed gratification, and effort are essential for health We also share personal stories from farm life — processing animals, raising food, reconnecting to nature, turning off noise, and learning firsthand that health isn't just about macros. If 80% of health is nutrition, the other 20% is sleep, stress management, movement, identity, belonging, and environment. And that 20% may be the piece most people ignore. You don't have to go live in the woods or give up electricity to live more ancestrally. But you can: • Reduce digital noise • Prioritize face-to-face connection • Create a better sleep environment • Move more naturally • Rebuild resilience • Step away from constant stimulation • Reconnect to nature and real food This episode will challenge you to examine where modern life is quietly undermining your keto or carnivore results — and how to begin closing the gap. Because ancestral eating without ancestral living only gets you part of the way there.   ✅✅✅Check out some of our Channel Sponsors:✅✅✅ Keto Chow: https://2krazyketos.org/Ketochow (automatically gives you 10% off) SaltT Electrolytes: https://2krazyketos.org/Salt (automatically gives you 10% off) Carnivore Bar: https://2krazyketos.org/carnivorebar use code 2krazyketos for 10% off Redmond Real Salt: http://bit.ly/Redmondsalt2kk (2krazyketos for 15% off) Keto Brainz: https://2krazyketos.org/KetoBrainz Keto Brick: https://bit.ly/Ketobrick Caraway Cookware: https://2krazyketos.org/Caraway (Gives 10% discount)  Pro One Water Filters: https://2krazyketos.org/ProOne  Scrummy Sweets: https://2krazyketos.org/scrummy

In this episode of the Ageless Future podcast, host Cade Archibald sits down with Dr. Brandon Burke to explore his journey from building multiple successful orthodontic practices to stepping into a new chapter focused on coaching and personal development. Brandon shares how growing up in a small Utah town shaped his drive, what it looked like to build a practice from scratch during the recession, and the moment he realized his achievements weren't the same as fulfillment. The conversation dives into themes of identity, burnout, resilience, and “unbecoming”—letting go of external validation to reconnect with purpose, emotional awareness, and grounded leadership in family and community. Brandon closes with a message about choosing to live as a creator rather than a victim, and how his most difficult season became the turning point that helped him realign his life.BRANDON BURKE:Websites: gettinlostisbeingfound.com and more-than-love.comIG: https://www.instagram.com/gettinlostisbeingfound/FB: @safetobeseenTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@gettinlostisbeing/YouTube: Safe To Be Seen~ https://youtube.com/@safetobeseenPodcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/safe-to-be-seen/id1817823527AGELESS FUTURE:Book Comprehensive Labs: https://agelessfuture.com/longevity-labs/FREE copy of The Peptide Blueprint: https://agelessfuture.com/blueprintSign up for future Health Accelerator Challenges calls LIVE! https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_YZsiUMOzSyqcE8IinC5YEQ#/registrationBooks: https://www.amazon.com/Books-Regan-Archibald/s?rh=n%3A283155%2Cp_27%3ARegan%2BArchibaldArticles: https://medium.com/search?q=Regan+ArchibaldLIKE/FOLLOW/SUBSCRIBE:YouTube -https://www.youtube.com/@ReganArchibald / https://www.youtube.com/@Ageless.FutureLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/regan-archibald-ab70b813Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ageless.future/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AgelessFutureHealth/DISCLAIMER: This video is for educational purposes only and does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.  Many of the molecules discussed in this video are research compounds and are not approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for any specific medical use, indication, or condition.

Finding ways to bend tasks toward your strengths and passions can make you happier, more productive and find more meaning in your life—no matter your job.Summary: On this episode of The Science of Happiness, we explore a research-backed practice in Job Crafting, where you take stock of the tasks that fill your day, how much time and energy they require, what really lights you up, and what changes you can make to better align your efforts at work with your genuine strengths and passions. We learn how Job Crafting doesn't just benefit your own well-being and help to guard against burnout, it can also boost your whole team's productivity and morale.How To Do This Practice: Take a “Before” Snapshot: Write down everything you regularly do in a typical week, from major responsibilities to small recurring tasks. Label Time and Energy: Next to each activity, mark whether it requires low, medium, or high time and energy so you can see where your resources are going. Notice How It Feels: Pay attention to what drains, stresses, or creates guilt—and what energizes or uplifts you. Reconnect with What Matters: Ask yourself what you most care about right now and what activities make you feel most alive. Sketch an “After” Version: Imagine how you'd ideally spend your time and where you might reduce, release, or expand commitments. Make One Small Change: Choose one realistic shift you can try this week to better align your days with what brings meaning and joy.

In this episode, Evan H. Hirsch, MD, sits down with Gina Worful, MS, RD, to explore what your food cravings are really trying to tell you. Gina Worful, MS, RD, is the founder of the Mastering Mindfulness Institute. Originally trained as a registered dietitian, Gina saw that traditional diet approaches failed to create lasting change. She developed a mindfulness-based methodology that helps people build self-trust and transform their health from the inside out. Today, the Mastering Mindfulness Institute supports individuals, health professionals, and universities in applying this transformational approach. For many people navigating long COVID, chronic fatigue syndrome, and other chronic illnesses, food can feel like a battleground. You know what you "should" eat, but exhaustion, depletion, and overwhelm make it difficult to follow through. Gina explains why cravings are not a lack of willpower, but a signal from your nervous system that your body has shifted into protection mode. In this episode, you'll learn: Why cravings increase when your body feels depleted or unsafe   The difference between physical hunger and stress-driven urges   The 3 R method: Reconnect, Reset, Reflect   How early nervous system stress shows up in the body   Why food often becomes associated with safety, love, and comfort   How mindfulness builds self-trust instead of self-control   Why your relationship with food mirrors your relationship with life  Rather than fighting cravings or trying to overpower them, Gina shares how to approach them with curiosity and compassion. When you understand what your body is actually asking for, cravings can soften naturally and become a pathway toward deeper self-awareness and healing.

Hello Health Heroes!In this episode of Tim James Upgraded, I sit down with Monica Gilliam—acupuncturist, herbalist, plant enthusiast, and creator of TalkToThePlants.com—to explore a radically simple idea: what if plants aren't just medicine… What if they're doctors too?We get into the science and the magic of it all—how words, thoughts, and energy impact water, plants, and your biochemistry. Monica shares how a simple moment trimming ivy in Seattle turned into a lifelong relationship with plant consciousness, and how that led her from contemporary dance to a master's in Chinese medicine to helping people reconnect with nature in a very real, practical way.We talk about why some people heal and others don't, how your choice and your inner state matter more than the technique, and how your plants can actually mirror what's going on with your nervous system, stress, and relationships. You'll hear wild stories—like plants “ratting out” what's really happening with their humans and a weed that practically called Monica over when she needed emergency help.If you've ever felt better just walking through a park or putting your hand on a tree, this episode will help you see why—and how to use plants as partners in your own healing journey.Enjoy the show!Love & Light,Coach TimP.S.

What does it take to truly reconnect with God? In Leviticus 8, we see the preparation of a priest, cleansed, clothed, and consecrated for holy purpose. In Ready To Reconnect, Pastor Todd Doxzon reminds us that through Christ we have been made kings and priests, called to live set apart and represent Him in the world. Reconnection does not happen by accident. It begins when we allow God to cleanse us through His Word, clothe us in Christ, and consecrate every part of our lives to His purposes. When we position our ears to hear His voice, our hands to serve, and our feet to walk in His ways, we step into the life He has prepared for us. The world has yet to see what God can do through one person fully dedicated to Him, and by His grace, that can be us.
