And do we feel he is the right choice to take on the responsibility? We'll dig into all of it and even have fun with some light speculation. We also have a round of our segment Will of the Force and your submitted #AskTheResistance questions!

    You might think being "skinny fat" is just about looking soft under your clothes, but a 2023 study found 26% of normal-weight men and 38% of normal-weight women actually had excess body fat their BMI never showed. The real name for it is normal weight obesity, and your scale, your mirror, and your last physical all miss it.

    NOTE: We will be welcoming Dr. Gleb to our community for an interactive webinar November 25th. To go deeper on this episode and take the opportunity to connect with Dr. Gleb live, register here: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/HfJOZAaIRI6DBXc84CSCSA. Hope to see you there!Most AI adoption strategies start with tools, training and governance.But what happens when the real barrier isn't knowing how to use AI?Employees may be wondering whether the technology will eventually replace them. Experienced professionals may feel that work they spent years learning to do can suddenly be generated in seconds. Others are already using AI successfully but are reluctant to admit it because they worry it will make them look lazy, less capable or as though they have somehow cheated.Those aren't technology problems. They're human ones.In this episode of foHRsight, Naomi Titleman is joined by behavioural scientist Dr. Gleb Tsipursky to explore what leaders often miss when trying to drive AI adoption at work.They unpack three very different forms of resistance: fear and anxiety about job security, threats to professional identity, and the social stigma that can keep productive AI use hidden. Gleb shares practical ways leaders can respond, including starting with the work employees actively want off their plates, modelling AI use openly, creating opportunities to share what is working, and giving people genuine space to experiment.The conversation also looks at the growing problem of AI-generated “work slop,” why critical thinking becomes more important rather than less important in an AI-enabled workplace, and how psychological safety needs to be paired with accountability and human review.For HR leaders navigating AI adoption, the challenge is no longer simply choosing the right technology.It is creating an environment where people can learn how to use it without feeling that doing so puts their job, identity or credibility at risk.About Our GuestDr. Gleb Tsipursky is a behavioural scientist, seven-time bestselling author and author of The Psychology of AI Adoption at Work: From Resistance to Results. His work focuses on how leaders and organizations make better decisions and adapt to changes in the future of work, drawing on extensive research and consulting with organizations navigating AI adoption.Resources ReferencedThe Psychology of AI Adoption at Work: From Resistance to Results — Dr. Gleb Tsipursky's latest book.

But the way we experience time has been shaped almost entirely by human societies.From ancient Mesopotamia, and major world religions including Judaism, Christianity and Islam, we trace the history weekend to mediaeval Europe, Iran, China, revolutionary France up to the present day in the US, UK and elsewhere.From drunkards in Austria, to oil workers in Azerbaijan, anarchists in Chicago, and women in Detroit, in this episode we look at the people who, together, created the weekend.The majority of workers in the West today don't realise that the modern two-day weekend that most of us enjoy only really became widespread in the last 80 years. And while today we take it for granted, employers and governments everywhere are making moves to erode it. At the same time, as automation continues, and large language models promise ever-higher productivity, a new generation of workers is calling for its extension – to a three-day weekend without loss in pay.Who will ultimately prevail, depends on us.E125: Fireside Chat – How We Won the Weekend – Available exclusively for our supporters on PatreonFull episode webpage: https://workingclasshistory.com/podcast/e126-the-radical-history-of-the-weekend/WCH commemorative merch about the weekend: https://shop.workingclasshistory.com/collections/all/weekendAcknowledgementsThanks to our Patreon supporters for making this podcast possible.

    Send us a text message and tell us your thoughts.In honor of Calypso History Month this October and the recent passing of the great "Calypso King of the World" Slinger “Mighty Sparrow” Francisco, we reshare this throwback episode with music sociologist Dr. Meagan A. Sylvester. Calypso isn't just a sound you dance to, it's a way Caribbean people have documented power, pain, pride, and punchlines for centuries. Together, we follow calypso from its roots in the slavery era, where satire and storytelling become tools for survival, into a genre that still functions like public commentary set to rhythm. Along the way we unpack why “mother music” matters, and why the calypsonian's job has never been only to entertain. We also zoom in on Trinidad and Tobago's outsized role in shaping calypso's modern identity, from early recording history to the migration that brings artists from across the region into Port of Spain's competitive calypso scene. Dr. Sylvester breaks down how language and tempo shift over time, and why double entendre becomes a signature strategy when you want leaders to hear the song but miss the sting. Carnival sits at the center of the story, not as a side note but as a major stage where lyrics carry debates about colonization, independence, republicanism, civil rights, and everyday governance. We talk calypso's relationship to soca, how generations argue about what counts as “real” calypso, and how new artists move between styles. Meagan A. Sylvester - Music Sociologist.Author.Researcher is a published author of over fifteen book chapters and journal articles and is a well know public academic in her native Trinidad and Tobago where she participates in both television and radio discussions on the Calypso and Soca musical artforms. Her research topics of interest are Music and National Identity in Calypso and Soca, Music of Diasporic Carnivals, Narratives of Resistance in Calypso and Ragga Soca music, Steelpan and kaisoJazz musical identities, Gender and Identity in Calypso and Soca music and Music and Human Rights in the Americas. She has presented academic papers and hosted scholarly workshops in several spaces across the globe including Europe, Latin America, South America, the United States and numerous islands in the Caribbean.Follow Dr. Sylvester on Facebook and Twitter. Support the showConnect with Strictly Facts -  Instagram | Facebook | Twitter | LinkedIn | YouTube | Website Looking to read more about the topics covered in this episode?

    In this episode, we spoke with Arndt Vogel, MD, a faculty member at the University of Toronto Institute of Medical Science, a scientist at the Toronto General Hospital Research Institute, and a medical oncologist at the UHN–Princess Margaret Cancer Centre in Canada.In our exclusive interview, Dr Vogel highlighted the rationale and growing evidence for sequential FGFR inhibition in FGFR2 fusion–positive cholangiocarcinoma, explaining that on-target resistance mutations and the differing binding properties of agents like pemigatinib (Pemazyre), futibatinib (Lytgobi), and the more selective tinengotinib (TT-00420) support using these drugs in sequence, although he emphasized that treatment decisions remain biomarker-informed rather than biomarker-guided. He also stressed the importance of early, RNA-based next-generation sequencing, the emerging role of circulating tumor DNA in capturing polyclonal resistance, and his anticipation of forthcoming phase 3 tinengotinib data.

    How can we explain vivid, life changing experiences and true perceptions occurring in patients between brain death and resuscitation? What are the implications of true information being anomalously communicated during these experiences? What are the implications of some children being able to access the memories of deceased people? Why do such a high portion of these kids remember a traumatic death?In this episode we have the two fascinating phenomena of near death experiences, and access to deceased peoples memories to look into. So, we discuss the history of NDE research, the main repeating components of the experiences and some of the anomalous information received; we talk about the radical changes in meaning, purpose and world views after such experiences; and the difficulties integrating this with their previous daily lives and relationships. Then we switch and look at the research into children who appear to have memories of people who are no longer alive, and the attempts to identify the dead person and verify if these things actually happened to them. And of course we're going to look at the implications of these anomalous phenomena for life, death, consciousness and the nature of reality.Our guest today is a psychiatrist and neuro-behavioural scientist in the Division of Perceptual Studies at the University of Virginia, Marieta Pehlivanova.

    Most yoga backbend preparation focuses on opening the front body. That's valuable — but it's only half the equation. The posterior shoulders, rhomboids, and upper back muscles that should be driving backbends are almost never specifically strengthened in a yoga practice. The result: most practitioners push the floor away rather than pulling the chest forward — and no amount of additional stretching fixes a strength problem.This week's podcast fixes that.Jason breaks down three targeted resistance band exercises for the posterior shoulders and upper back — and immediately applies each one to Locust, Cobra, Camel, and Bridge so you can feel the difference in real time.What You'll Learn:Why posterior shoulder and upper back weakness is the most overlooked limitation in yoga backbendsThree resistance band exercises — seated and standing row, elbow flare pull, and band pull-apart at three angles — that directly target the muscles yoga consistently under-developsHow to choose the right resistance level and how many sets and reps to use for both pre-practice activation and longer-term strength buildingHow to apply each exercise immediately to Locust, Cobra, Camel, and Bridge — and feel the difference in muscular recruitment in real timeWhy resistance provides proprioceptive feedback that bodyweight yoga cannot and how that feedback immediately improves your backbendsRegistration opens for Jason's newest course, Strong Yoga on Thursday!

    In this episode we had the rare opportunity to interview a spokesperson from a direct action group that has targeted Toll Holdings in Australia. The 'Death to Toll' campaign has engaged in a range of sabotage, vandalism and disruptive actions including sledgehammering windows, cutting internet cables, blockading roads and an international port entrance,. They have also slashed lines and cut valves to disable vehicles, covered facilities inside and out with paint and foul liquids, and sabotaged infrastructure such as signal boxes used by Toll. In this discussion we ask them about the development of the anti-zionist movement in Australia after October 7th, 2023. Ask about how the group settled on its target, prepared their campaign, and selected the tactics they wanted to use in their campaign. As our guest raises the spirit of adventure they see as important to taking meaningful direct action to confront the genocidal war machine, I also ask them what they think about allegations of "adventurism" that can be levied from the left at those who take up such action. Because this campaign is heavily under threat by the state we agreed to some additional security measures in this conversation. The voice you hear is not the actual voice of the person we interviewed. The original interview was transcribed and then converted to audio using a text to voice generator. Just as an editorial note or disclaimer: Amid heightened attacks on various forms of speech, as a platform we are not advocating that people engage in any form of illegal activity. But we do have to understand that the greatest crime that humanity has recognized, the crime of genocide, is still ongoing. There are moral, ethical, and even legal imperatives that people are engaging in order to try to stop that crime from continuing to unfold.  This interview is a rare opportunity to hear from those who are taking direct action to halt genocide and war crimes. These actions have been threatened with severe repression and many who take these forms of action do face repression. We see it as a journalistic responsibility to ensure that people hear from those who are willing to take action to stop genocide. It is also very important that people show up and support political prisoners if we are to build a movement that is capable of confronting the machinery of genocide and imperialism.

    — Today, we're exploring a question that many of us eventually encounter: What if creating a meaningful and successful life doesn't require us to constantly push, strive, and force our way forward? My guest, Sam Kukathas, is the founder of Soul Purpose Leaders and creator of Resonance OS. His work explores the relationship between the nervous system, sound and resonance, emotional patterns, purpose, and human potential, particularly among high-performing founders and leaders. Together, we'll explore why achievement doesn't necessarily bring fulfillment, how unconscious patterns can keep even highly successful people caught in cycles of pressure and resistance, and what may become possible when we begin creating from a place of greater coherence rather than force. We'll also dive into Sam's fascinating work with the human voice and sound frequencies, his understanding of nervous-system regulation, and some bigger questions around conscious leadership, spirituality, identity, and purpose. And perhaps most importantly, we'll ask: What happens when we stop measuring our lives only by what we accomplish—and begin paying attention to who we are becoming along the way? This is a conversation about moving from striving to resonance, from resistance to flow, and ultimately, toward a more joyful and authentic way of being. Valeria sits with Sam Kukathas — He is the founder of Soul Purpose Leaders, where he works privately with founders and leaders carrying multi-million and billion-dollar visions. Using his voice, he transmits specific sound frequencies that work directly on the nervous system to dissolve the stored emotional patterns keeping high performers stuck in cycles of force and resistance. He's also the creator of Resonance OS, a platform that makes this work accessible in daily 9-to-15-minute sessions. Described by Michael Beckwith as "a great addition to one's spiritual growth and spiritual path," Sam has appeared on 20+ podcasts sharing this work.

    Marcos Canales is the pastor of La Fuente Ministries, a bilingual, intercultural congregation in Pasadena, California, and a PhD student at Fuller Theological Seminary. In this conversation, Markus Watson and Marcos talk about ministry in a community reeling from both the Eaton fire and ongoing ICE enforcement, why Marcos describes it as an enforcement of terror, what a robust theology of suffering looks like, and how churches removed from the front lines can stand in solidarity without centering themselves. THIS EPISODE'S HIGHLIGHTS INCLUDE: Why Marcos describes current immigration enforcement as an enforcement of terror, and how it echoes the violence many Latin American families fled. How the Eaton fire and ICE operations compounded trauma in Pasadena and Altadena within a single month. Bilingual ministry as a daily practice of rehumanization. Why theologies that rush people toward superficial hope end up wounding them more. Gustavo Gutiérrez's reading of Job and the call to keep talking to God in the midst of suffering. The risen Jesus who never hides his wounds, and what that means for wounded leaders. Grief stations, gratitude, and building a congregational culture where lament is a spiritual practice.

    “Resistance training and protein are the new fountain of youth.” — Dr. Ian Smith  What changes about the way we should eat and exercise during menopause—and for all the decades that follow?  In this episode of AGE BETTER, I sit down with physician and bestselling author Dr. Ian K. Smith for a lively, practical conversation about his new book, The New Menopause Kitchen. We talk about the nutrients that become especially important during and after menopause, why he created a flexible 10-week eating plan, and how Rachael Ray's recipes turn those nutritional principles into real food you'll actually want to eat.  But this isn't just a conversation about food. Dr. Ian believes nutrition and exercise are a “one-two punch,” which is why the book also includes his Meno-Cise exercise plan—with a particular focus on maintaining muscle, protecting bone, and making movement doable and sustainable.  KEY LINKS  Read “The New Menopause Kitchen” by Dr. Ian K.

    In this episode Andrea Samadi revisits a 2020 conversation with trainer Jason Wittrock, exploring how movement, recovery, and nutrition interact to support learning, adaptation, and performance. They discuss sustainable eating strategies—like focusing on food quality, experimenting to find what works for you, and using tracking as a short-term tool rather than a lifetime rule. The episode also highlights the power of example: staying consistent with healthy habits even when others resist, trusting the process, and choosing one manageable change to practice until it becomes part of your life. Welcome back to the Neuroscience Meets Social and Emotional Learning Podcast, where we bridge neuroscience, social and emotional learning, and human performance so we can create measurable improvements in our well-being, achievement, leadership, productivity, and results. I'm Andrea Samadi, and if you've been following along through Season 16, you'll know that we have been building what I call The Brain's Operating System for Human Performance—a neuroscience-based framework designed to help us understand how the different systems of the brain and body work together to influence how we learn, adapt, connect, lead, and ultimately perform. Today, we are completing Phase 3: Movement, Learning, and Cognition, where we have been following this central pathway: Movement creates the stimulus. Recovery allows the brain and body to respond. Adaptation is the change that follows. And improved performance is the outcome we are working toward. Throughout this phase, we have explored how movement activates the brain, how exercise primes attention and learning, and how recovery determines our readiness to perform. We have also examined how sleep, cardiovascular fitness, strength, nutrition, and metabolic health influence the way the brain and body adapt over time. For this final episode of Phase 3, we are returning to a conversation that played an important role in my own health journey. Today, we revisit my interview with personal trainer and fitness model Jason Wittrock, who first appeared on this podcast in Episode 94[i] in November 2020. On this episode, we explore: ✔ Why food quality can matter more than rigidly chasing numbers ✔ How hunger and fullness provide useful information ✔ Why tracking should teach us—not control us ✔ How experimentation builds body awareness ✔ Why consistency matters more than short-term perfection ✔ How leading by example can influence others—even when we cannot see it yet I first discovered Jason in late 2016 or early 2017, when I was standing at a crossroads with my health. I knew I needed to make some changes, but I didn't yet know what those changes should look like. I had heard people talking about keto coffee and the potential benefits of a ketogenic diet, including increased energy, greater mental clarity, and weight loss. So, like many people searching for answers, I went to YouTube and typed in, “How do you make keto coffee?” One of Jason Wittrock's[ii] videos appeared. That video became the beginning of a much larger journey for me—one that changed the way I thought about nutrition, energy, exercise, and metabolic health. What made Jason stand out wasn't only the information he shared. It was the intention behind it. He would speak quickly and enthusiastically about what he was doing, what he was eating, and why—and then he would say something simple: “Hey, I'm just trying to help.” And I believed him. Jason also emphasized something that has remained with me ever since: it isn't enough to follow a diet or health plan for 30 or 45 days. If we want lasting results, the changes must become part of the way we live. That message stuck—all these years later. I began making keto coffee, experimenting with new foods, learning what macronutrients were, and discovering what worked best for me. I began paying much closer attention to how nutrition affected my energy, mental clarity, and physical performance. I still make the occasional keto coffee and have MCT Oil next to the blender, and Kerrygold Pure Irish Butter in the fridge. ‘ What started with one YouTube video became part of a much broader investigation into the habits that support brain health, my metabolic health, as well as longevity. And this is exactly why Jason's work belongs at the conclusion of Phase 3. Movement is a powerful signal—but the body does not adapt to movement in isolation. Adaptation is also shaped by how we fuel the body, regulate blood sugar, support metabolic flexibility, sleep, recover, and repeat our habits consistently over time. Exercise, nutrition, sleep, fasting, and recovery are not completely separate health strategies. They are interacting signals that tell the brain and body how to respond, rebuild, and perform. As we revisit this interview, you'll hear some of my questions from the earlier years of my health journey. Science continues to evolve, and so have many of my habits and perspectives. But the central lesson remains highly relevant: Lasting change rarely begins with having every answer. Sometimes, it begins with one trusted voice, one new idea, and the willingness to take the first step. Almost six years after recording this interview, I can say that I still trust Jason's guidance on nutrition. As I reviewed these clips, they almost brought tears to my eyes because I could see how accurately his words predicted what would unfold years later. It was almost as if he were saying, “Keep going. Trust the process.” And when I look at the lasting changes in my own life and family, I can now see what he meant. CLIP 1: ESCAPING THE CAGE OF CONSTANT TRACKING In Clip 1, (click to watch VIDEO clip)  Jason challenges the idea that we need a perfect calorie target or precise macronutrient formula to improve our health. He explains that nutritional needs vary from one person to another—and even from one day to the next. This makes it difficult for an online calculator or outside expert to determine exactly what an individual body needs at every moment. From Jason's perspective, one potential benefit of a well-formulated ketogenic diet is that it may help some people experience steadier energy, fewer cravings, and greater awareness of their natural hunger and fullness cues. Instead of constantly counting calories or tracking every gram of protein, fat, and carbohydrate, he encourages people to begin with the quality of the foods they eat and then observe how their bodies respond. Jason uses the image of a lion in the wild compared with a lion in a cage. The lion in the wild responds naturally to hunger and fullness. The lion in the cage represents someone constrained by spreadsheets, calorie targets, and rigid food rules. His central message is that nutrition should be sustainable enough to support your life—not so complicated that tracking the plan becomes your life. KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM CLIP 1 There is no single perfect formula for everyone. Calorie and macronutrient recommendations are estimates. Individual needs vary according to activity, sleep, stress, health, body composition, personal goals, and many other factors. When I first watched one of Jason's “What I Eat in a Day” videos, it gave me a starting point. At that time, I didn't really know what to prepare for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I ate healthy foods, rarely ate sugar, but knew I could improve with what I was using as energy. Jason's meals gave me a basic framework. From there, I adjusted the foods and portions to make his approach work for me. If you want to see a more recent video of what he eats in a day, you can visit his Instagram[iii] page. Food quality matters. Jason recommends beginning with nutrient-dense, minimally processed foods rather than focusing exclusively on calories or macronutrient percentages. This was a huge paradigm shift for me. At the time, I could tell you the calorie count of almost any food. But after listening to Jason, I stopped thinking only about calories in and calories burned. Instead, I began noticing which foods left me feeling satisfied, energized, and full. Hunger and fullness provide useful information. Learning to recognize physical hunger, satisfaction after eating, cravings, changes in energy, and fullness can help us understand how different foods affect us. This was another eye-opener for me. I began experimenting with intermittent fasting and eating within a defined window. This practice helped me learn what hunger actually felt like without immediately becoming afraid of it. With time, my body became more accustomed to recognizing hunger cues and waiting until it was time to eat. This became useful when I was traveling. If I couldn't find a restaurant or food choice that worked for me, I learned that I could wait rather than eat something simply because I was uncomfortable with feeling hungry. I also learned that drinking water could sometimes help that hunger feeling to feeling pass. Tracking can be helpful—but it is only a tool. Tracking may help someone understand portions, macronutrients, (how much protein, carbs or fats are in a certain food) or eating patterns. But when tracking becomes rigid, stressful, or obsessive, it can make a healthy lifestyle more difficult to sustain. I used an app to track my carbohydrates, proteins, and fats during the first few months. Once I understood what worked for me and found meals I could repeat, I no longer needed the tracker. The tracking served its purpose: it taught me something. But it didn't need to control me indefinitely. Experimentation builds self-awareness. Instead of blindly following someone else's formula, Jason encourages us to test different foods and routines while paying attention to our energy, appetite, mood, sleep, and performance. I liked Jason's food choices, so I used many of his meals as a starting point and adjusted the portions for my own body and needs. Sustainability (the long-term vision) matters more than short-term perfection. The most effective nutritional approach is one that supports your health while remaining realistic enough to continue over time. I had always believed that I ate healthy foods, but I didn't fully understand how to build meals that worked for me until I began following Jason's work. His guidance helped me move from generally trying to “eat healthy” to understanding how specific choices affected my energy, focus, and performance. Now I know what breakfast foods work best for me when I have a long day, without access to food, and what refuels me after a long hike, as well as what helps me to wind down before sleep. The goal is greater freedom—not another cage. Jason's lion metaphor reminds us that a nutrition plan should help us reconnect with our bodies rather than make us feel controlled by numbers, rules, and spreadsheets. Once we learn what works for us, it becomes easier to stay on track without constantly measuring everything. I still eat many of the same foods for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. My youngest daughter has now discovered the meals that work best for her and has become an excellent cook who prepares her own food every week. There is still one person in our house who insists he will never change the way he eats. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that he might try the carrots and celery I have ready to go--someday. HOW CAN WE PUT THE IDEAS FROM CLIP 1 INTO PRACTICE? First, begin by improving the quality of one meal each day. Build it around minimally processed foods that include some protein, healthy fat, fiber, and vegetables that are appropriate for your chosen nutritional approach. Like me, once you connect with someone you trust, you can learn from them. Second, pause before eating and ask yourself: Am I physically hungry, or am I responding to stress, habit, boredom, or simply the availability of food? This concept is still important for me. I sometimes reach for a snack when I'm stressed or rushing. In those moments, I can pause and consider whether a glass of water—or a few quiet minutes—would meet the real need more effectively. Third, slow down while eating. Give your brain and body enough time to recognize satisfaction. Halfway through the meal, pause and notice whether you are still hungry, comfortably satisfied, or already full. Bob Proctor, who has appeared often throughout this podcast, used to say often: “Do you taste your food?” Are you eating slowly and mindfully enough to notice how your food actually tastes? I noticed something interesting recently while eating at a steak restaurant. I had removed alcohol from my diet at the beginning of August after realizing that I didn't really enjoy it. After the first month, I began noticing that I could taste food differently. At this restaurant, I experienced the flavor of shrimp cocktail in an entirely new way. That is a story for another episode, but it reminded me that when we slow down and pay attention, we may notice something we have missed before. Fourth, observe how different meals affect you. Notice your energy, cravings, mood, focus, digestion, exercise performance, and hunger during the hours that follow. Fifth, experiment with one change at a time. If you change everything at the same time, it becomes hard to identify which food or habit produced the result. Sixth, use numbers selectively. Tracking your food for a short period can provide useful information, but it does not need to become a permanent requirement. Let the data teach you rather than control you. Seventh, remember that ketosis (or intermittent fasting) is not the only path to understanding your appetite or metabolic health. Some people feel better following a ketogenic approach, while others do well with a balanced diet that includes high-quality carbohydrates. The important question is whether the approach is safe, nourishing, sustainable, and effective for you. Finally, if you take medication or have diabetes or concerns involving your kidneys, liver, gallbladder, pancreas, cardiovascular health, or eating behaviors, speak with a qualified healthcare professional before beginning a ketogenic diet, intermittent fasting, or another significant dietary change. The goal is not to copy someone else's perfect formula. The goal is to gather information, listen carefully to your body, and gradually uncover the nutritional approach that helps you feel and perform at your best. CLIP 2: PUSHING THROUGH THE BACKLASH In Clip 2, (click the link to watch the video clip) Jason and I discuss one of the most difficult parts of creating a healthy lifestyle: continuing to make intentional choices when the people around us do not understand or support what we are doing. I described the challenge of teaching my daughters healthy eating habits while they watched their friends eat fast food and sugary foods. As a parent, it can feel as though you are the “bad guy” when you establish boundaries or offer healthier choices that your children do not yet appreciate. Jason explained that these lessons might not make sense to them when they are young, because eating well did not feel necessary to them at that stage of their lives. They really want to fit in. But that did not mean they weren't paying attention. His message was to keep leading by example. The people around us may resist our choices, criticize us, or even think we are being extreme—but they are still watching. When improving their own health eventually becomes important or necessary, they may remember the habits, choices, and lessons they witnessed. The main idea is simple but powerful: Push through the immediate backlash, because the example you set today may become someone else's roadmap tomorrow. KEY TAKEAWAYS FROM CLIP 2 People may resist what they do not yet need—or what they did not choose. Health advice can seem unnecessary to someone who has not experienced a problem, consequence, or don't have a personal desire to change. We each need to arrive at the point where we want the change for ourselves. Resistance does not mean your example is being ignored. People may question your choices while quietly observing your consistency, discipline, and results. When Jason predicted that I would notice the effects of my healthy eating choices years later, I had no idea how accurate he would be. Years after this interview, my youngest daughter now meal-preps. She is a wonderful cook, and I can learn from the foods she prepares each week. My oldest daughter (also meal preps) and thanked me for not making junk food and fast food a normal part of their childhood. They definitely ate some of these foods when they grew older, but they were grateful that those foods had not formed the foundation of what they ate when they were young. I'll never forget when she said “Hey Mom, thanks for making us eat healthy when we were little.” I remember being shocked—and grateful—that I had stayed true to what I believed was right. At the time, I sometimes wondered whether I was depriving them of experiences their friends enjoyed. People thought I was from a different planet when I told them I had never bought fast food for the kids. Years later, I could see that my example had made an impact, even when there was little evidence of it in the moment in those early years. Timing matters. We cannot force another person to change before they are ready. But we can make sure that helpful information and a positive example are available when their moment arrives. Leading by example can be more powerful than lecturing. Consistently demonstrating healthy habits gives other people a practical model they can use later. Children absorb more than they appear to. Even when children complain about boundaries we give them, or reject healthy choices, they are still learning what their family values and what healthy behavior looks like. Backlash is not necessarily evidence that you are doing something wrong. Making a change can disrupt established family or social patterns. Resistance may simply reflect that the new behavior is unfamiliar or that it challenges what others are accustomed to doing. Consistency creates a future roadmap. When health becomes personally meaningful to the people watching us, they may remember the lessons they once resisted and finally know where to begin. HOW CAN WE IMPLEMENT THE IDEAS FROM CLIP 2? First, connect your choices to a clear personal reason. When you understand why you are exercising, eating differently, or protecting your health, other people's opinions are less likely to pull you off course. For me, these habits help me think more clearly and feel better. They also allow me to take greater ownership of my energy and performance. Second, expect some resistance. When you change a familiar pattern, the people around you may feel confused, defensive, or inconvenienced. Prepare for that response without automatically interpreting it as failure. Third, be yourself instead of constantly trying to persuade other people. Continue preparing healthy meals, exercising, recovering, and making intentional choices. Allow others to observe your consistency, energy, and results. Fourth, share with others your results, but don't expect them to join you. You can explain why a choice matters to you while giving other people the time and space to make their own decisions. Fifth, avoid turning food into a battle—especially with children. Provide healthy options, explain their purpose (food as fuel) and allow some flexibility. This took me some time. When our girls were teenagers, I eventually took them through a fast food window, but made them place their own order. Sixth, focus on what you can control. You cannot control whether someone follows your example. You can control the example you provide. Seventh, recognize small signs of influence. Someone asking a question, trying one healthy food, joining you for a walk, or remembering something you said may be enough evidence that the lesson has made an impact on them. Eating was one area where I eventually saw that I had influenced my immediate family—but it took years for that influence to become visible. Exercise was another. I have always been a regular hiker, and I took my daughters onto the trails almost as soon as they were old enough to go outside with me. For years, we hiked Camelback Mountain together during their spring break. Then one day, they came to me and said, “We aren't going hiking anymore.” When I asked why, they told me that there was almost nothing they hated more than hiking. I wasn't upset about their choice to boycott the trails. I could hike or run on my own, which I often preferred. But I wondered why they didn't enjoy the mountains or being outside. Years later, my oldest daughter began hiking with her friends and asked whether she could buy a pair of hiking shoes. I wanted to ask, “Why? I thought you hated hiking.” But I realized that all those years on the trails had not been wasted. She had been taking in the experience. She simply wanted to experience the trails with her friends as a teenager—and that made complete sense. This brings us back to Jason's central message: The people around you are taking notes. They may not use those notes today. But when change becomes relevant or necessary, your example may help them know where to begin. Push through the backlash—not by arguing with others, but by staying steady enough for your actions to speak loud and clear for you. REVIEW AND CONCLUSION To review and conclude Episode 407, Jason Wittrock's message gives us two important lessons. The first is about learning to listen to our own bodies. Jason encourages us to move away from the belief that one perfect formula, calorie target, or macronutrient ratio will work for everyone. Tracking can teach us valuable information, especially in the beginning. But the goal is not to remain trapped inside a spreadsheet. The goal is to use what we learn to recognize the foods and habits that help us feel nourished, satisfied, energized, and capable of performing at our best. Begin with food quality. Notice your hunger and fullness cues. Observe your energy, focus, mood, digestion, and physical performance. Experiment carefully. Let the data inform you without allowing it to control you. Jason's second lesson is about the influence of our example. When we change our habits, not everyone around us will understand. Some people may question our choices. Others may resist them. Our children, partners, friends, or colleagues may not see the value in what we are doing because the need for change has not yet become personal to them. But they are still taking notes. This may be the most meaningful part of revisiting this interview almost six years later. At the time, I could not see whether the choices I was making were influencing my family. I could only continue doing what I believed was right. Years later, the evidence appeared. My daughters remembered. They began making some of those choices for themselves—not because I forced them to, but because the example was available when they were ready to use it. This brings us back to the central pathway of Phase 3: Movement creates the stimulus. Recovery creates the capacity to respond. Adaptation is the change that follows. And improved performance is the result. But this episode reminds us that movement is only one of the signals shaping adaptation. Nutrition matters. Sleep matters. Recovery matters. Consistency matters. And the environments and examples surrounding us matter. In a HUGE way! The brain and body adapt to what we repeatedly do—not merely to what we intend to do occasionally. If there is one action I hope you take from this episode, it is to choose one habit you can practice consistently enough for it to become part of who you are. It might be improving one meal. It might be slowing down and tasting your food. It might be paying attention to genuine hunger and fullness. It might be drinking water instead of automatically reaching for a snack. It might be walking, strength training, sleeping longer, or giving your body the recovery it needs to adapt. Choose one action. Observe how your body responds. Adjust what does not work. And repeat what does. This is how we move from information to implementation—and from implementation to adaptation. I'll also connect this episode to a couple others that were important at the time I interviewed Jason. EP 51[iv] was with Kelly Schmidt, my own athletic trainer who taught me how to meal prep. EP 90[v] was focused on health and wellness with Luke DePron, who was the fitness trainer who taught me to always have celery and carrots in the fridge. EP 160[vi] was with Chrissy Barth, a Functional Sports Registered Dietician who offered some great advice for fueling athletes. Many of the interviews in 2020 were focused on health and wellness and are great places to review. Health and wellness does go through different phases, but many of them remain constant. Exercise and eating healthy never goes out of style. As we bring today's conversation to a close, we are not quite finished with Phase 3. Before we move forward, we have one final step: integration. Our next Episode 408, From Movement to Performance: What We Learned About Building Capacity, we will bring together the major ideas we have explored throughout Phase 3: Movement, Learning, and Cognition. We'll examine how movement prepares the brain to learn, how attention opens the gate to encoding, how recovery allows adaptation to occur, and how our daily habits influence our long-term capacity to learn, perform, and remain healthy. Episode 408 will help us connect these individual pieces into one complete pathway: Movement creates readiness. Readiness supports attention. Attention opens the gate to learning. Recovery enables adaptation. And adaptation builds the capacity for sustained performance. With that final integration, we will bring Phase 3 to a close—and prepare to take the next step in our journey. Because human performance does not happen in isolation. Once we have strengthened our individual capacity—our ability to move, focus, learn, recover, and adapt—we must ask what happens when that brain and body encounter another person. How do we perceive someone else? How does that perception create an affective response within the body? How do those internal signals become emotions? And how do those emotions influence trust, communication, connection, belonging, leadership, and performance? That is where we are going in Phase 4: Perception, Emotion, and Social Intelligence. We will follow a new pathway: Perception leads to affect. Affect contributes to emotion. Emotion influences mindsight. Mindsight shapes relationships. And relationships create—or disrupt—the belonging and psychological safety required for people to learn, lead, and perform at their best. Phase 3 has helped us understand how to build the capacity of the individual brain and body. Phase 4 will ask what happens when that brain and body enter a relationship with another human being. Because we do not simply respond to the world as it is. We respond to the world as we perceive it. And that perception shapes nearly everything that follows. Thank you for continuing this journey with me. I'll see you next time for our final Phase 3 integration episode, From Movement to Performance: What We Learned About Building Capacity—before we begin Phase 4 and explore how perception shapes our emotions, our relationships, and the impact we create in the world.

Born in East London, his work examines social justice, protest movements, storytelling, and everyday life within Black British and urban communities. He is the son of Caribbean migrants who arrived in the United Kingdom during the post-war period, part of a generation whose movement reshaped British society and forms part of the wider African and Caribbean diaspora. Wayne Campbell is a London based photographer, my work has allowed me to capture many emotional and spectacular moments, often in amazing locations whilst meeting some incredible people. In 2020 my view of photography went on an explosive journey, I discovered Visual Activism and gave birth to 'A Celebration of Demonstration' This idea came from the understanding that art can be used to express our emotions and our empathy. This journey began with a collection of images I captured in London, after the televised, brutal murder of George Floyd. At this time, we were also being told to stay indoors, to protect the NHS and to help stop the spread of the Coronavirus. I felt that I was living in the middle of two pandemics, coronavirus and racism. Fast forward to 2022, and my first photography book 'A Celebration of Demonstration' is in production, this work feeds my soul and burns bright my creativity. By 2024 my second self-published photography books '0710 Year One' is released. Visual Activism is a language, which I will continue to use to tell stories and to share voices.​A Celebration of Demonstration is located at:Unit 22a Market Row, Brixton Village SW9 8LF

    Send us Fan MailSoundbite Episode 008: Weightlifting 101A Beginner's Guide to Getting StartedDr. Angela introduces a beginner-friendly, evidence-based guide to resistance training, noting guidelines recommend strength training two days per week and aiming to help novices start at home or in a gym without needing expertise or fancy equipment. She explains key benefits—strength, function, muscle mass, bone health, reduced metabolic disease risk, and maintaining independence with age—and emphasizes there's no single “right” way to train for life. Resistance can come from body weight, bands, dumbbells, machines, or household items, and beginners should focus on basic movement patterns: squat, hinge, push, pull, and carry/core. She recommends 1–2 sets of 8–12 reps per movement, using a challenging load that still allows control and leaving 2–4 good reps in reserve, with progressive overload over time by adding resistance, reps, sets, or harder variations.--------------------00:00 Welcome & Introduction04:57 How Hard Should It Be?08:06 Your First WorkoutYour initial workout might look like this:Squat: Chair sit to stand or goblet squat.Pull: Resistance band or dumbbell row.Push: Wall or counter push-up or a dumbbell press.Hinge: Hip hinge or Romanian deadlift.Carry: Farmer's carry or core exercises.Perform one to two sets of each with 8 to 12 reps, choosing a resistance level that challenges you yet allows for control. Spacing your workouts with at least a day's rest is essential for recovery.Stay Connected

    How do you know what you're called to do when everything is demanding your attention?Our feeds can put the needs of the entire world in front of us at once. We encounter war, politics, suffering, outrage, advertising, entertainment, and endless opportunities to care. Eventually, many of us find ourselves exhausted, apathetic, or unsure what we're actually supposed to do with our lives.In the final week of Look T(Here), we explore the connection between attention and calling.Throughout Scripture, God's people developed practices that resisted the systems trying to define who they were and what their lives were for. Pharaoh told Israel their value was found in what they could produce. God called them something different. Jesus later stripped away layers of religious complexity and returned to something remarkably simple: love God and love your neighbor.Maybe calling isn't usually about discovering one enormous thing you're supposed to accomplish.Maybe it's learning to faithfully inhabit the life God has already given you.KEY TAKEAWAYS• Too much access to the world's suffering can leave us exhausted or numb.• God has not called us to carry every burden we encounter.• Our attention affects our ability to discern what God may actually be calling us toward.• Calling exists within the ordinary domains of our lives—our relationships, resources, work, communities, and responsibilities.• Sabbath was a practice of resistance that challenged Pharaoh's definition of human worth through production.• Every cultural system has its own version of calling and formation.• Jesus simplifies the calling of God's people around loving God and loving our neighbors.• Giving our attention to God creates space for God to reshape our desires.• Most of our lives will not be defined by dramatic moments of calling, but by ordinary faithfulness where our feet already are.KEY MOMENTS00:00 Attention Shapes Desire, Desire Shapes Life03:24 Living in an Attention Economy06:15 Why We've Lost Touch With Calling07:05 A Tour Through the Algorithm10:45 Compassion Fatigue and Compassion Apathy12:00 God Hasn't Asked You to Carry Everything12:31 Calling in Your Actual Life20:42 Called to Be a Kingdom of Priests21:19 Pharaoh's Calling vs. God's Calling22:18 Sabbath as Resistance25:14 Jesus Announces His Calling28:04 The Greatest Commandment29:05 Every System Has a Call30:38 When Distraction Drowns Out Calling31:03 Your Newsfeed Gives You the World31:58 Faithful Where Your Feet Are32:21 Resisting What Is Forming Us33:15 Giving Our Attention to GodSCRIPTURE REFERENCESExodus 19:3–6Deuteronomy 5:12–15Isaiah 61:1–2Luke 4:16–21Matthew 22:34–40REFLECTION QUESTIONWhat has God actually entrusted to you—and what would it look like to become more faithful right where your feet are?CONNECT WITH USYou don't have to carry the whole world.Following Jesus often begins much closer to home: with the people, responsibilities, resources, and places already in front of us.If this message was meaningful to you, share it with someone and stay connected with Westwinds as we continue learning how to give our attention to God and live faithfully in the lives we've been given.

    Vanessa breaks down the biggest scientific takeaways and most actionable gems from her recent conversation with body-composition expert and author Lyle McDonald. Why does fat come off easily from some areas while other areas seem determined to hold on? And can we influence stubborn fat loss without simply getting leaner everywhere else? Create your own custom protein blend at truenutrition.com/vanessa and use code VANESSA for 20% off your first order. Let Vanessa know what your custom blend is! Now shipping internationally. Vanessa explores the physiology of stubborn body fat, including fat mobilization, blood flow, oxidation and alpha-2 receptors, and why women in particular may notice their upper body becoming lean long before their hips and thighs. She also breaks down Lyle's newest approach, Intermittent Modified Fasting, and how alternating protein-focused, low-calorie days with maintenance days may offer a more flexible way to create a calorie deficit while prioritizing muscle retention. Vanessa explains why protein becomes especially important during aggressive calorie restriction, why a maintenance day is different from a "cheat" or "feast" day, and how meal timing, appetite and ketosis can influence how sustainable a fat-loss phase feels. She also examines Lyle's proposed strategies for addressing stubborn fat—including lower-carbohydrate eating and combining higher-intensity intervals with lower-intensity activity—while separating established physiology from strategies that still require more research. YOHIMBINE SAFETY NOTE: Yohimbine is discussed in this episode for educational purposes only and is not being recommended for use. Yohimbine can cause significant side effects, including anxiety, increased heart rate and blood pressure, and may interact with medications. It should not be used during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Anyone considering yohimbine should first consult with a qualified healthcare professional. Finally, Vanessa explores the scientific mechanisms behind yohimbine and alpha-2 receptors for educational purposes, red-light therapy and blood flow, whether slower weight loss could help preserve facial fullness, and why having a maintenance strategy may be just as important as having a fat-loss strategy. In this episode: Why some areas of body fat are more resistant to fat loss Why women may lose upper-body fat before hip and thigh fat Alpha-2 vs. beta receptors and stubborn-fat physiology Fat mobilization vs. fat oxidation vs. actual body-fat loss Why blood flow matters in stubborn fat stores Protein-Sparing Modified Fasting (PSMF) explained Lyle's Intermittent Modified Fasting approach Why protein matters on very-low-calorie days Maintenance days vs. cheat or feast days How to structure lower-calorie and maintenance days around training and life Why meal timing should help manage your appetite Time-restricted eating vs. intermittent modified fasting Protein, ketosis, satiety and food preoccupation Lower-carbohydrate eating and stubborn-fat mobilization Higher-intensity intervals followed by lower-intensity activity Why walking may fit into Lyle's stubborn-fat protocol Why more cardio is not necessarily better during aggressive dieting Red-light therapy, blood flow and what the evidence does—and does not—show Yohimbine, alpha-2 receptors and important safety considerations Why mobilizing more fat does not guarantee greater fat loss Resistance training and preserving lean mass during fat loss How to create a long-term weight-maintenance range Why small course corrections may help prevent larger weight regain Can slower weight loss help preserve facial fullness?

    In January 2025, Tyler Hassen was running a diversified energy business in Houston. Weeks later, he was inside the West Wing as a DOGE senior insider, named Acting Assistant Secretary of Policy, Management, and Budget at the Department of the Interior with authority over $35 billion in spending and 8,000 federal employees. Now he's written the first book-length account of DOGE from someone who actually executed the work. Hassen joins Newt to discuss Inside DOGE: The Real Story from a Senior Insider — part memoir, part management autopsy. He describes late-night West Wing meetings, an $830 million contract request he says he could have designed in high school, a California water crisis that became an international media firestorm, and the personal cost his family paid. His verdict: the waste was real, the resistance was fierce, and the work is far from finished.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

But He also prepares them for resistance, rejection, and persecution.So how do we hold onto joy, love, and faith when following Jesus becomes difficult?Together, Jamie and Jane explore what it means to love sacrificially without needing the approval of the world, how to remain rooted in Christ when your faith is challenged, and the role of the Holy Spirit—the Advocate—who empowers us to testify about Jesus.Following Christ doesn't guarantee an easy road. But Jesus never asks us to walk it alone.This conversation is an invitation to stay rooted in love, remain faithful under pressure, and choose joy even when following Jesus comes with a cost.Reflection Question: Can I remain joyful, loving, and faithful to Jesus even when following Him costs me the approval of others?____________________________________Connect with Jamie:Website: www.jamieklusacek.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacekConnect with Jane:Website: www.janewwilliams.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

    Are we all like wounded animals caught in a fence, biting the hand of the person trying to help? Is spiritual grace something exceptionally rare — and most of us the unfortunate ones who never win the lotto? Or is grace all around us, and we just need to put down what's in our arms to receive it? Raghunath and Kaustubha explore that alongside Krishna's entrance into Mathurā — where two encounters show exactly what it looks like to resist and receive grace. Srimad Bhagavatm 10.41.40-52  ******************************************************************** LOVE THE PODCAST? WE ARE COMMUNITY SUPPORTED AND WOULD LOVE FOR YOU TO JOIN!

    Lindsay explains that protein recommendations swing widely and argues intake should be based on context: goals, resistance training, body composition, and whether someone is eating at maintenance or in a calorie deficit. She emphasizes that calorie restriction can suppress muscle protein synthesis, making higher protein and resistance training especially important during fat loss phases, citing recommendations for lean, trained individuals in aggressive cuts and explaining why protein targets may rise as deficits become more severe.Topics discussed:(00:00) - Protein Debate Begins (01:51) - RDA vs Training Goals (03:44) - Protein for Aging Strong (05:13) - ISSN Guidelines and Context (06:23) - Where 0.7 Comes From (07:44) - Why Some Need More (09:41) - High Protein at Maintenance (10:33) - Mindful Eating App Plug (12:54) - Deficit Changes Everything (14:43) - Muscle Biology in a Cut (17:33) - Higher Targets for Lean Lifters (21:03) - Practical Protein Examples (23:34) - Lifestyle and Cut Cycles (26:16) - Wrap Up and Takeaways Connect With LindsayInstagram: @liftinglindsayJoin the BeStrong Community for science based training, nutrition education, coaching, live calls, and a supportive community of women who want to get stronger, build muscle, and improve their health.Learn more at liftinglindsay.comReady To Train With Us?If this episode resonated with you and you're ready to experience this style of training for yourself, it's not too late to join us inside the BeStrong app.Our newest hypertrophy phase has already begun, but you're absolutely not behind.This training block focuses on:✔ Lengthened position training✔ Strategic pauses and isometrics✔ Improving muscle tension✔ Building strength and muscle with intentional execution✔ Learning how to make the target muscle do more of the workYou'll get access to the complete training program, exercise video demonstrations, nutrition guidance, live coaching calls, and a community of women committed to getting stronger together.Join us HEREStudies & ReferencesMorton RW, et al.

    "Wing Ding, you're either crazy as hell or you've got balls."This is the story of the European Theater in 1943.As Allied bombers learn the brutal cost of daylight precision raids over Ploesti and Schweinfurt, Allied armies fight their way onto the Italian mainland at Salerno, and the citizens of Naples rise to liberate themselves. Meanwhile, the U-boat is finally beaten back in the Atlantic, American Lend-Lease reaches a bleeding Soviet Union, and the tide turns in the East. And in occupied France, a fractured Resistance begins to cohere—thanks to the sacrifice of a hero named Jean Moulin—as Charles de Gaulle claims his place at the head of a nation not yet free.We'll meet a tail gunner who flew into hell without his parachute, a colonel who took his burning bomber over the target rather than break his word, a thirteen-year-old who took on a German tank, and an American spy hiding behind a wooden leg and a wheel of cheese. Each is doing their part as the whole Allied world bends toward one looming date on the horizon.Call it the pre-pre-D-Day episode.
