    On this episode of the Italian American Podcast, host Patrick O'Boyle convenes a distinguished panel at the Italian Cultural Institute in New York to explore the often-overlooked world of Neapolitan Renaissance art. Claudio, the Institute's director, outlines its mission to promote Italian culture across New York, Boston, and Philadelphia, strengthening ties between Italy and the Italian American community. Patrick shares the story of restoring forgotten masterpieces in Buccino, Salerno—an initiative sparked by an unexpected American connection and dedicated to reviving sacred works of art. The discussion turns to innovation in preservation. Ivan describes how virtual reality and artificial intelligence are expanding access to cultural heritage, including the creation of digital twins of the Annunciation statues damaged in the 1980 Irpinia earthquake. These tools allow audiences to follow the restoration process step by step, illustrating how collaboration between Italian and American institutions can protect historic treasures. Art historian Danielle Oteri offers a perspective on the Neapolitan Renaissance's neglected legacy, recalling how aristocratic patrons once commissioned major works for rural churches, bringing artistic excellence to everyday communities. Reflecting on emigration, loss, and renewal, the episode underscores how the Italian diaspora can help restore ancestral towns, making the past not only remembered but rebuilt.   LOCATION: Italian Cultural Institute, 686 Park Avenue, New York, NY.    THEIR SOCIALS: Antonio Vincente Amendola Instagram: @antoniovicenteamendola   Danielle Oteri Her Website: https://www.feasttravel.com/ Instagram: @danielleoteri_italy Youtube:  @danielle-oteri    HOSTS: Patrick O'Boyle Danielle Oteri   SPECIAL GUESTS: Antonio Vincente Amdenola Claudio Pagliara Ivan Allevi   PRODUCED BY: Nicholas Calvello-Macchia

    Eric explores the deep connection between business expansion and the moral responsibility of a leader. He argues that true success is not about personal luxury, but about building a massive "umbrella" of opportunity where employees can fulfill their own financial and personal dreams. Reflecting on his thirty-five-year career, he describes moving from a fear-based survival mindset to one of intentional risk-taking for the sake of his community, family, and team. He emphasizes that high service costs are necessary to sustain an infrastructure for life, allowing him to provide for his staff and fund his wife's dream of a wildlife rehabilitation center. The episode serves as a call for leaders to embrace aggressive growth and rigorous recruiting to create a legacy of collective achievement. Key Takeaways: Shift your focus from individual success to building a platform that allows everyone around you to grow and achieve their own dreams. Regularly sit down with your team to understand their personal, professional, and financial goals so you can help align their daily work with their long-term vision. Have the courage to charge what you are worth so you can build a sustainable machine that provides a high quality of life for your family and employees. Take massive action and embrace calculated risks instead of waiting for perfection, as progress is often made through feedback in the midst of the work. Create an environment that encourages others to start dreaming again by showing them that a bigger, more fulfilling life is possible through shared success.

    In this Dark Moon download, Britten speaks from the dark moon in Capricorn at the closing edge of the lunar cycle, as Saturn reaches the final degree of Pisces and prepares to move into Aries. She shares why these are a form of self-regulation and names the phrase that has been coming through really loud at the end of this cycle: living your refusals. Britten explores refusal as a sacred Saturnian function. An integrity-based "no" that clarifies what is loving, fair, and generative, and locates agency and authority. Reflecting on how abundance begins with no, she invites listeners to refuse collapse, perfectionism, and silence. And explains how to move from compassion into action. As the energy shifts from Pisces to Aries, she calls forward self-trust, sacred irritation as information, and the courage to free up energy for the dreams that want to come into form.   +++   Learn More about The Magician's Table:  The Magician's Table is a 3-month container for personal growth, community connection, and practice growing one's tools as an intuitive and magical practitioner.

    Bitwise Asset Management European head Bradley Duke talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about Bitcoin's recent price weakness, institutional demand trends, and the company's latest European exchange listings. Duke explained that Bitcoin is currently trading around $67,000, representing a significant drawdown from its previous all-time high of approximately $125,000–$126,000. He attributed the initial sell-off to a combination of macro catalysts, including market reaction to tweets by Donald Trump, as well as expectations around Bitcoin's historical four-year cycle. According to Duke, Bitcoin has historically delivered three strong years followed by one weaker year, leading some long-term holders to “front run the cycle” by selling ahead of what was expected to be a softer period. He also highlighted a broader macro “risk-off” sentiment impacting tech stocks and metals, adding that crypto is often viewed as an extension of tech. However, Duke pointed to strong institutional support as a key underpinning for the asset. He noted that ETF buyers, ETP investors, and public companies holding Bitcoin as a treasury asset have continued to purchase more Bitcoin than the newly mined supply entering the market, in some periods, “about double the current new supply.” Reflecting on previous downturns, Duke said investors who remained unemotional and bought during the 2018 and 2022 drawdowns saw significant long-term gains, adding: “Well, the boat came back to shore.” Beyond market commentary, Duke outlined Bitwise's recent listings on Nasdaq OMX Stockholm, Borsa Italiana, and XETRA Deutsche Börse, including its Bitcoin and gold ETP, BTCG.

Solitude is not a punishment; rather, it is an essential practice that allows us to tap into our true selves amidst the chaos of everyday life. I highlight the importance of carving out alone time, regardless of whether you're an introvert, extrovert, or ambivert, because life's demands can easily overwhelm us, leaving little room for self-reflection.Reflecting on my recent experiences, I discuss how the pressures of daily interactions and responsibilities can lead to feelings of being swamped and disconnected from the present moment. I share my realization that, with so much external noise, I found myself bouncing between past regrets and future anxieties instead of embracing the here and now. This made me yearn for solitude, which I realized is a personal choice I must prioritize.I delve into the distinction between loneliness and solitude—where loneliness signifies a sense of disconnection, solitude allows for the opportunity to reconnect with oneself. By stepping away from the demands of our surroundings, we can better process our thoughts and gather clarity. I emphasize that retreats, whether they be for meditation or simply quiet time at home, serve as powerful catalysts for introspection.#AnxietyCoachesPodcast, #AnxietyCoaches, #ACPSolitude, #AlohaSpiritMindset, #AnxietyCoachesCommunity, #TheRichnessOfSelf, #LetTheDustSettle, #RespondingNotReacting, #ClearTheSlate, #SubconsciousBubbling, #AnxietyRelief, #Solitude, #MentalHealthMatters, #SelfCare, #Mindfulness, #PersonalGrowth, #InnerPeace, #MentalClarity, #Recharge, #SelfReflection, #WellnessJourney, #IntrovertLife, #PresentMoment, #Journaling, #EmotionalWellbeing, #StressRelief, #Healing, #SpiritualGrowth, #HealthyBoundaries, #AnxietySupport, #MentalHealthAwareness, #PanicAttackRecovery, #CalmYourMind, #ACP, #GinaRyanSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    It's the end of an era in Cleveland as David Njoku says farewell after nine seasons. Mary Kay Cabot, Ashley Bastock and Dan Labbe react to the news that the tight end will not be re-signing with the Browns, a move that wasn't a surprise but is still tough for many fans. The crew discusses how the emergence of Harold Fannin Jr. as the new TE1 and the team's youth movement signaled the writing was on the wall. They look back at Njoku's fascinating Browns career, from being drafted at just 20 years old and maturing on the job to his memorable on-field moments and his unique, fun-loving personality that made him a fan favorite.

    The retail operator for Eddie Bauer’s North American stores has filed for bankruptcy. Depending on how things turn out, the outdoor gear brand could see the closure of nearly 200 stores across the United States and Canada. The Seattle Times also reports that the company's store operator plans to close its headquarters in Seattle and lay off 60 workers. This isn’t the first sign of trouble for the Seattle-based business, which faced bankruptcy proceedings in 2003 and 2009. This latest filing won’t affect the company’s wholesale, manufacturing or online operations -- so it’s not like the brand’s going away completely. But the news still feels pretty big…. Because once upon a time, not too long ago, Eddie Bauer was a premiere spot for outdoor gear. It outfitted the first American to summit Mount Everest. And there was a time when it was quite the fashion statement to walk into work with an Eddie Bauer puffer. As the company faces an uncertain future, we decided to reflect on its legacy.

    In this episode of the AI Agent & Copilot Podcast, John Siefert, host and CEO, Dynamic Communities and Cloud Wars, is joined by Jen Harris, CEO of TMC, to explore how AI agents, automation, and mindset shifts are redefining business. Their discussion spans TMC's acquisition of TMG, leadership in the partner ecosystem, and why reimagining work is critical now, setting the stage for conversations at the 2026 AI Agent & Copilot Summit NA.Key TakeawaysAI Requires Commitment, Not Caution: Harris emphasizes that half-measures slow progress more than they reduce risk. Organizations that just try one thing often abandon AI too quickly because early results aren't perfect. She notes, “You fail first at new things,” adding that true adoption requires patience, leadership backing, and a willingness to accept short-term discomfort for long-term gains.Solutions Beat Technology Stacks: Customers no longer want disconnected tools; they want outcomes. Harris explains that clients expect partners to “meet them where they are,” combining Power Platform, Azure, data, and AI into real solutions.Mindset Is the Real Bottleneck: While AI is already embedded in daily life, Harris observes resistance when it enters core business roles. “It's not quite here yet” is often code for fear of job impact. She challenges leaders to reframe AI as a workload reducer, asking, “What if it would make you less busy?”Reactive Roles Are Disappearing: Harris highlights a coming shift as agents take over repetitive, reactive work. Professionals who built careers on being indispensable specialists must evolve. People will move toward proactive creation, strategy, and value generation.Human Connection Still Matters: Despite rapid automation, Harris stresses that humanity isn't going away. Reflecting on in-person events, she says, “Look at you — you came out of your offices on a cold day, and we're talking.” AI may scale intelligence, but trust, inspiration, and shared understanding still comes from people.

    Law firms are quietly rewriting the rules on growth power and ownership as consolidation, private capital and talent pressure push the industry toward a fundamentally different future. Chris Batz and Howard Rosenberg step back from deal headlines to talk about what 2025 revealed beneath the surface of the legal market. Mergers are no longer driven by geography alone and private capital is no longer a fringe topic whispered about behind closed doors. The conversation centers on how managing partners are being forced to rethink scale strategy and long-term value in an environment where standing still is no longer an option. The episode also unpacks why enterprise value has entered the law firm vocabulary and why partners are beginning to question a model that pays well annually yet offers little on the way out. With investors circling smaller and mid-sized firms first, Chris and Howard explore what private capital really wants from law firms and what law firms may gain or risk by engaging it. Is this about cashing out or about building something durable that attracts talent and creates optionality over time? Looking ahead to 2026, the discussion widens to include boutique firms, venture-backed legal platforms and a talent market that no longer respects seasonality. New firms will launch. Others will combine. Some will struggle to adapt. The episode leaves listeners with a clear takeaway. The legal industry is no longer debating whether change is coming. The real question is who is preparing for it with intention and who is hoping yesterday's rules still apply.   Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Reflecting on 2025: A Year of Change 03:11 Mergers and Acquisitions: The New Landscape 10:30 Private Capital: A Game Changer for Law Firms 18:27 The Future of Law Firms: Trends and Predictions 25:52 Innovations in Legal Services: The Rise of Tech Companies   Connect with Howard Rosenberg: Connect with Howard on LinkedIn Howard's Company Web Profile   Connect with Chris Batz: Connect with Chris on LinkedIn  Follow Columbus Street on LinkedIn Columbus Street Website  MergerWatch Website   Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm

    In this episode, we're joined by Andrew Genovese, dimensional breathwork guide, inner child + shadow work teacher, and a fierce advocate for inner sovereignty and soul reclamation — for a grounded, no-BS conversation about what spirituality actually is (and what it definitely isn't). Andrew shares his personal hero's journey…from years of nomadic travel and existential dread, to a full-blown awakening catalyzed by loss, collapse, and deep surrender. He walks us through the real mechanics of transformation: nervous system capacity, embodiment, and the willingness to face your own darkness instead of hiding behind slogans. We go straight at the modern “spiritual scene” — the robes, the persona, the Love & Light bypassing and why real awakening doesn't look like anything…except becoming radically, unapologetically yourself. If you've ever felt allergic to the performance of spirituality and hungry for something with substance, this episode is your compass.Time Stamps(00:00) Episode Teaser(00:37) Opening Conversation(01:13) Exclusive Membership Announcements(03:34) Andrew Genovese's Hero's Journey(09:10) His Defining Psychedelic Experience(15:21) Reflecting on Childhood and Family Dynamics(28:47) What Is Spiritual Awakening Really?(38:18) The Illusion of Perfection(45:36) Living with an Open Heart & Navigating Life's Challenges(01:00:19) The Role of Nervous System in Personal Growth(01:06:30) True Leadership and Authenticity(01:11:05) Understanding Personality and Birth Cards(01:13:33) The Concept of Downloading Codes(01:15:55) Questioning Spiritual Language and Authenticity(01:25:56) Dimensional Breath Work and Personal Growth(01:36:44) The Hero's Journey and Self-EsteemGuest Linkshttps://www.andrewgenovesehealing.com/ https://www.instagram.com/breathehealevolve/ Connect with UsJoin our membership Friends of the TruthRise Above The Herd Take the Real AF Test NowDiscover Your Truth Seeker ArchetypeWatch all our episodesConnect with us on TelegramFollow us on InstagramAccess all our links

From David giving toward a future he would never see, to Nehemiah rebuilding what had been neglected, Scripture shows us that faithful sacrifice fuels the work of God and shapes stories that outlive us.Ultimately, our generosity reflects the heart of a generous God. He gives freely. He gives faithfully. And when we live with open hands, we mirror His character to the world around us.As a church family, we're praying boldly and believing God for all He wants to do in and through Rise City in this next season.

    At the 2020 Tokyo Olympic Games (held in 2021 due to COVID-19), the fifty-four African countries that participated finished the tournament with the lowest medal haul for any continent, continuing a historic trend since the inception of the modern Games in 1896. Reflecting this relative lack of sporting success, African Olympians—aside from elite Kenyan distance runners—rarely register in the minds of even the most dedicated followers of the Games. Yet for all their seeming invisibility on the Olympic landscape, African states, athletes, and officials have long been “winning” at the Olympics, albeit often far removed from the medal podium.Africa and the Olympics: Winning Away from the Podium (Ohio University Press, 2024) by Dr. Todd Cleveland shows how African actors have achieved these nonsporting victories and examines how they have used the Olympics to engage in transformative political activity, realize social mobility, and enhance the quality of life for individuals, communities, and entire nations. In tracing these historical and contemporary processes and the motivations that underlie them, the book complicates reductive notions of the Olympics as solely a sporting competition and instead considers Africa's engagement with the Games as a series of opportunities to improve personal, communal, ethnic, national, and even continental plights.If few sports fans have thought extensively about Africa and the Olympics, scholars have been only slightly more engaged with the subject. Most of this scholarship focuses on the International Olympic Committee's ban of apartheid South Africa from 1964 to 1988. Other works that consider the Olympics more broadly tend to deal with Africa only summarily, further reducing its already low profile. As a result, the academic literature resembles a patchwork of circumscribed studies dispersed in a range of fields and disciplines. Not since the publication of Africa at the Olympics almost fifty years ago has a single volume featured a comprehensive history of the continent and the Games. This book both updates and expands previous work and, most importantly, reframes the analytical engagement with this topic. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

    In the new world of college football there may be just as much action in the courtroom as there is on the field. The latest trend is if you want another season in college, after your eligibility is up, take it to the courtroom! The two most recent cases of that are Trinidad Chambliss and Joey Aguilar. Both of whom are waiting to see if they get an injunction that will allow them to play in the 2026 season. Andy Staples, Ross Dellenger and Steven Godfrey explain both of these cases and update everyone with where the cases are in the process. They also take a look at the schools these quarterbacks are looking to go back to. Both schools have 5-star QBs waiting in the wings, which leads to the question: in the transfer portal world, are 5-star QBs better off going to a smaller school where they can play right away and transferring later?Then, the guys get into some more College Football Playoff conversation. The CFP released the 2026 & 2027 schedule for the quarterfinals, semifinals and championship game. In 2026, the playoff spans over 39 days. Andy, Ross and Godfrey discuss the ludicrous schedule. They also talk about a potential savior in the NFL. With the NFL now owning a stake in ESPN, will they help out college football's scheduling to make it a better product?Later, Andy shares the results of his homework assignment. Last episode, the guys discussed how weak Week 1 is to start the 2026 season. Andy shares his plan of how to move Oklahoma and Michigan to Week 1 to inject some energy into the opening weekend slate of games. The guys also close the show by discussing the Washington Post shutting down their sports division.All of this and more on College Football Enquirer.0:00:00 - SEC QB's suing for eligibility6:18 - Trinidad Chambliss' case update8:32 - Joey Aguilar case update16:08 - What does the future of 5-star QB's in college look like?28:24 - CFP releases 2026 schedule40:22 - Andy tries to improve Week 1's schedule51:55 - Reflecting on the Washington Post news Subscribe to the College Football Enquirer on your favorite podcast app:
