Have you ever worried that you're not meeting all of your child's needs—academically, emotionally, spiritually, or even socially? Pretty much every day, right? You're not alone. Most of us have asked ourselves if we are giving our kids everything they need at one time or another.In this episode, I'm sharing a replay from one of our Circle with Sarah live sessions where RAR Community Manager Kelsey Murphy and I dug into what education is really for, because if we know what it's for, we're better able to answer if we're meeting our children's needs.I hope this conversation helps you reimagine your kids' education in a way that eases your worries and reminds you that education is about relationships, not checklists, and that is very good news.Circle with Sarah is my homeschool mentoring program within RAR Premium. Every Monday, members get a quick five to ten minute podcast with just the encouragement they need to be the peace-filled, joyful homeschool mom they're called to be.

In this potent conversation, I sit down with Yarrow Kae—a mentor, spiritual guide, healer, and clinically trained therapist who bridges ancient wisdom with modern psychology—to explore what it really means to embody the truth of who you are. Yarrow's story is nothing short of extraordinary: at 19, she downloaded enlightenment on the dance floor of a rave, setting her on a decades-long journey of integration, nervous system healing, and self-mastery. Her work now blends somatics, depth psychology, energetics, and spirituality to help others shift at a cellular level and live from their unique magnetic vibration.Together, we dive deep into the subtle ways our attachment patterns, shame stories, and identity constructs keep us bound—often in ways that feel “productive” or “good.” From perfectionism and people-pleasing to the spiritual bypassing that hides beneath our self-development work, this conversation unveils the unconscious habits that keep us safe but small. Yarrow shares how nervous system regulation and secure attachment create the foundation for true embodiment—and how the willingness to be radically honest with ourselves is the real portal to freedom.If you've been craving deeper self-trust, or if you're ready to stop performing the “healed” version of yourself and start living as the embodied one—this episode will speak straight to your soul. You'll walk away feeling both challenged and seen, with new language for your own evolution and practical wisdom to anchor your healing in your body.In this episode, we explore:How attachment wounds subtly shape your nervous system, identity, and relationshipsThe link between shame, anxiety, and perfectionism—and how these patterns keep us stuck in controlWhy even “productive” habits like personal growth or cleaning can become addictions rooted in shame or avoidanceThe importance of nervous system safety in receiving love, abundance, and regulationHow to identify the hidden ways you sacrifice authenticity for attachmentWhat it really means to worship at the altar of you—and how self-devotion becomes the ultimate act of sovereigntyThe power of radical honesty and self-compassion in releasing control and embodying freedomHow to alchemize rage, grief, and shame into embodied truthWhat happens when you finally allow yourself to be seen, safe, and free—on your own termsBe sure to hit subscribe so you never miss the latest episode!Connect with Yarrow Kae:Instagram: @yarrowkaeYouTube: Yarrow Kae AcademyThe Composer: heal-with-yarrow.teachable.com/p/the-composerThe Portal: heal-with-yarrow.teachable.com/p/the-portalConnect with Emily:Website: www.EmilyReuschel.comInstagram: @emilyreuschelFacebook: Emily ReuschelLinkedIn: Emily ReuschelJoin my Book Insiders List:

We are thrilled to sit down with Dr Francesca Fulminante to chat all about the development of settlements in central Italy from the Bronze Age to the Archaic Period of Rome. Dr Fulminante shares insights from her recent monograph: The Rise of Early Rome - Transportation Networks and Domination in Central Italy, 1050-500 BCE (2023) (Cambridge University Press).This is a period where archaeological investigation reigns supreme requiring researchers to get into the nitty gritty layers of settlement patterns and trading networks. We're thrilled to learn from Dr Fulminante as her research involves the investigation of complex societies in central Italy during the Bronze Age, looking at things like social stratification, settlement organisation, and craft community practices. Dr Fulminate is a Senior Research Fellow in the Department of Anthropology and Archaeology at the University of Bristol, and is an Associate Professor at University Roma Tre. Her work also involves offering continuing education training at the Universities of Oxford and Cambridge.What is time and how do things get complicated quickly?Coming to grips with the early evidence for Rome and central Italy involves understanding some of the overlapping terminology used by archaeologists and historians, who are coming to the evidence from different perspectives. Terms like the Bronze Age and Iron Age come to us from archaeology and anthropology while specific periods like the Archaic period and Early Roman Republic are much more society specific and tend to come from historians. This overlap can create a little bit of confusion, so here's a rough breakdown (including some of the overlapping terms):The Early Bronze Age: 2300-1700 BCEThe Middle Bronze Age: 1700-1350 BCEThe Recent Bronze Age: 1350-1150 BCEThe Final Bronze Age: 1150-950 BCEIron Age: c. 1200- c. 500 BCEVillanovan Culture: c. 900-700 BCE (Etruscan)The Orientalising Period: c. 700-500 BCE (Etruscan)The Archaic Period: 800-500 BCE (Rome)The Early Republic: 509-400 BCE (Rome)The Rise of Rome?Dr Fulminante takes us through the early settlements of the Bronze Age and the transition to permanent structures in stone rather than perishable materials that occurs in from the 8th century BCE onwards. What does the evidence suggest for the development of ancient cities and the interconnections between them? Tune in to find out!Things to listen out for:V. Gordon Childe's ten defining features for an ancient cityConnectivity in central Italy as an essential feature of the growth of citiesBurial under the housesThe movement of cities from east to west versus the network development theoryHow transportation networks develop from a physical perspectiveHow transportation networks are are influenced by political organisation and relationshipsThe way roads and rivers work together to create a networkThe connections between Latium vetus (old Latium) and Etruria (north of the Tiber)Cooperative networks versus centralised hierarchical networksFor our full show notes and edited transcripts, head on over to https://partialhistorians.com/Support the showPatreonKo-FiRead our booksRex: The Seven Kings of RomeYour Cheeky Guide to the Roman Empire Hosted on Acast.

In this season of Toxic Silence, we've been exploring how silence can wound us—how unspoken truths, unmet needs, and lost attunement create toxic patterns in our lives. Today's conversation takes us straight into the heart of that theme.When we talk about lost attunement, we're really talking about one of the earliest forms of toxic silence: the silence of a parent who doesn't respond, mirror, or truly see us. That silence says: your feelings don't matter, your voice doesn't matter, you don't matter. And it leaves a lasting legacy.For boys, this may show up as hyper-toughness or emotional collapse, carrying unprocessed feelings into adult relationships—sometimes as passivity, resentment, or a split between façade and hidden shame. For girls, it can look like over-performance, constant giving, or waiting for rescue, fantasy, or validation.Underneath it all lies the same deep longing: a desire to repair the original wound of emotional abandonment. Often, we unconsciously recreate these dynamics in relationships, perpetuating cycles of silence, avoidance, and unspoken pain.Our guest today is Hawatea Bryson, a powerful therapist and friend who works deeply with couples on these themes. She explores what she calls silent relationships—how lost attunement shows up between partners, keeps us stuck, and what it takes to finally find repair.In this episode, we discuss:How silence becomes toxic in relationshipsThe different ways men and women carry the legacy of lost attunementHow to move from being silenced to reclaiming your authentic voiceBecause silence shapes us—but when it's met, named, and transformed, it can also set us free.www.natureknows.co

Should We Legalize Prostitution? The Sexual Frustration Crisis Men Are FacingThis episode tackles one of the most controversial questions of our time: Should prostitution be legal? But it's not just about policy — it's about the sexual shame, frustration, and isolation that's destroying men in silence.Faisal, Chuck, and Ari dive deep into the reality that most people won't discuss: Men are sexually starving in sexless marriages, endless single streaks, and a culture that celebrates women's emotional needs while shaming men's physical ones.What we unpack:Why men have 20x more testosterone but nowhere to express their sexual needs without being labeled "creepy" or "predatory"The double standard: Women get therapy, safe spaces, and sex toys while men get shame and secrecyHow sexual repression creates the very dysfunction we're trying to avoid — porn addiction, affairs, and dark obsessionsReal stories from strip clubs and escort experiences that reveal what men are actually seeking (hint: it's not always what you think)The difference between sexual gratification and true intimacy — and why men confuse the twoWhat happens when couples have mismatched sex drives and one partner holds the other "hostage"Whether legalizing prostitution would help or hurt men's ability to form real relationshipsThe hard questions: Is denying men a healthy sexual outlet forcing them into dysfunction? Are we already "paying for sex" through expensive dates and gifts? If women can seek emotional support outside marriage, why can't men seek physical release?This isn't about promoting or condemning — it's about having the honest conversation that society refuses to have. Whether you're married, single, or somewhere in between, this episode will challenge how you think about male sexuality, relationship dynamics, and what we actually need versus what we think we want.Warning: This conversation goes places most won't. If you're uncomfortable discussing male sexual needs openly, this episode will push your boundaries. But that discomfort might be exactly what you need to examine.Subscribe to the Nice Guy Show newsletter to get tips and insights on how to lead a high-value life:https://niceguyshow.com/Connect with Faisal Khokhar:https://masculine.co/https://instagram.com/coachfaisalkhttps://youtube.com/@coachfaisalkConnect with Chuck Chapman: https://chuckchapman.com/https://instagram.com/chuckchapman.ma/https://youtube.com/@chuckchapmanConnect with Dr. Ari Graff:https://drarigraff.com/https://draribgraff.com/register [divorce recovery program]https://youtube.com/@AriGraff

What if everything you experience—stress, conflict, even judgment—is not about what's happening out there, but what's going on within you? That's the powerful lens Townsend Wardlaw offers as he guides us into a deeper understanding of consciousness and how it shapes every aspect of our lives. Through personal stories, vivid metaphors, and hard-won lessons, he shares how shifting your perspective can completely transform how you lead and live. You'll walk away with a new awareness of how unconscious scripts and internal projections influence your decisions, relationships, and company culture. Townsend draws a clear distinction between traditional consulting and true coaching, where the goal is not to give answers, but to help others access their own wisdom. His insights offer practical ways to release control, lead from higher consciousness, and move from judgment to curiosity. This is a conversation that has the power to change how you see the world—and yourself. Townsend began his professional journey at 27, rapidly rising from outbound cold-calling for a small, long-distance reseller to the role of vice president of a Fortune 500 technology company in under six years. In 2002, he ventured into entrepreneurship, founding a sales consulting and outsourcing company that grew to $3 million in revenue.  After closing the company in 2009, Townsend dedicated himself to serving founders on their journey to growth and exit. He has coached 100s of leaders, and his efforts have generated over $1.5 billion in revenue and created more than $1 billion in generational wealth for their founders. What Townsend holds in the highest regard is his role in mobilizing over $7.5 billion in capital and contributions towards social and environmental organizations. Currently, Townsend serves as the trusted advisor to a select group of founders and the world's top coaches. In his spare time, he leads The Coach's Operating System, a community that serves the top 5% of coaches in the world. You'll discover: Why stress often comes from your perspective, not your circumstancesHow unconscious scripts quietly shape your choices and relationshipsThe difference between giving answers and creating transformationHow leaders can release control and build more resilient culturesA fresh way to see challenges as invitations for growthCheck out all the episodesLeave a review on Apple PodcastsConnect with Meredith on LinkedInFollow Meredith on TwitterDownload the free ebook Listen Like a Pro
