* Exodus Code: On the day Moses delivered the Ten Commandments about three thousand souls died (Exodus 32:28). And on the day that God gave the Holy Spirit, about three thousand souls were saved (Acts 2:41). Explaining that contrast, Paul wrote that the law kills but the Spirit gives life (2 Cor. 3:6,7,17). That Law of the Ten Commandments is the basis of an entire criminal code revealed in Exodus. But it doesn't end there. Contained within the document that convicts the world, Salvation is found.

This week on The Mother Daze we sit down with our friend Polly Staniford, a powerhouse Aussie film and TV producer who also happens to be an intuitive healer, tarot reader, psychic, reiki practitioner and mama of two. Tez and Polly have worked together plenty of times but only recently discovered their shared love of all things woo woo, whimsical and witchy. Polly chats about how she's brought her magical side forward while still running her producing career, why more people are tuning into their intuition, and how storytelling through film connects with storytelling through the cards. She even does a live tarot reading for us that delivered some huge “OMG did that seriously just happen?!” moments. From new beginnings and rewriting old narratives to big expansion energy, this episode is a full-on portal of magic.

Does people pleasing play a role in your lack of satisfaction in your relationships? Let me be your breakup buddy! Get direct access to my calendar here to schedule a FREE consultation.We are often motivated to people please and sacrifice our own time, comfort, energy, and even happiness from a place of lack. It also comes from a place of not loving and respecting ourselves fully, which can never lead to vibrant, mutually supportive relationships. There is hope in the knowledge that people pleasing can be un-learned. We can always discover and adopt new ways of showing up for ourselves and others. Remember, when we put ourselves first the rest falls into place. These affirmations are powerful messages to help you internalize how important and safe it is to do so.I encourage you to listen once a day while you work to turn a corner on your process. I will read each twice, giving you time in between to say each to yourself. It's safe for me to set boundaries with myself and othersI love expressing myself My time and energy are worth protectingI confidently communicateI am striving to learn what being authentic means to meI love showing people different parts of myself It is good to take time to make decisions My friendships are best when I show up as myself I surround myself with strong, capable peopleI am a strong, capable person I am capable and worthy of love and respectI allow others to see my authentic self and enjoy doing the same Want to learn about my breakup or secure attachment coaching?

Interview with Richard Young, President & CEO of i-80 Gold Corp.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/i-80-gold-corp-iau-explore-develop-mine-au-ag-zn-pb-in-nevada-3037Recording date: 25th August 2025i-80 Gold (TSX:IAU) is executing an ambitious transformation from minimal production to becoming Nevada's next significant gold producer, targeting 600-700,000 ounces annually within six years. The company holds 14 million ounces of gold resources and over 200 million ounces of silver across four past-producing Nevada properties, positioning it among the state's largest resource holders.Under President and CEO Richard Young's leadership, i-80 Gold is leveraging a strategic advantage by restarting proven assets rather than developing greenfield projects. Young brings substantial credibility through his experience at Barrick Gold and successful track record taking Teranga Gold from small producer to 500,000-ounce annual operation. "It's not very often that any management group has the opportunity to work with tier one assets in a tier one jurisdiction to create a new mid-tier gold producer," Young notes.The company's three-phase development plan centers on systematic asset restart with significantly reduced execution risk. Phase 1 targets 150-200,000 ounces by 2028 through underground operations at relatively low capital intensity of $40 million per portal development. The self-funding model generates $200-250 million cash flow to finance Phase 2, reaching 300-400,000 ounces by 2030.i-80 Gold completed a $175 million equity raise in Q2 and is arranging $400 million debt financing to fund the $800 million development plan through 2030. The company benefits from Nevada's homogeneous geology, existing infrastructure, and established permits, while operating one of only two autoclaves in the state.The flagship Mineral Point project anchors Phase 3, potentially delivering 350,000 ounces over 20 years. Despite current market valuation around $500-600 million, management's internal assessment suggests $6 billion value following feasibility studies, highlighting significant upside potential as the company systematically executes its Nevada-focused growth strategy.View i-80 Gold's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/i-80-goldSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

In this episode, we explore what resource guarding really means, why dogs display it, and how you can respond in ways that build trust rather than conflict.You'll learn the difference between normal protective behaviors and true guarding issues, common myths that lead to frustration, and simple strategies to prevent and manage guarding in daily life. From trade games to safe spaces, we'll cover practical approaches that respect your dog's needs while keeping your home peaceful.We'll also dive into the emotional side for guardians—how to move past fear or frustration and reframe guarding as communication instead of aggression. By the end of this episode, you'll walk away with a new perspective: resource guarding isn't about power, it's about protection. And when you learn to listen, you can strengthen the bond with your dog.dogspeak101.comdogspeakgeek.thinific.comThe Herbal Dog Event

Click here to send us a topic idea or question for Weekend Wisdom.Question: I have listened to hundreds of adoption-related podcast episodes, but very few of them have talked about talking directly with a potential birth mother. We were matched with an expectant mother who wanted to be able to communicate with us directly. We agreed, believing that it would help us form a better relationship. However, we were mentally unprepared for the wavering she expressed to us. Despite being so certain when we first met with her, as the pregnancy went on, she then had thoughts of parenting. The match ended with disruption, but I would love to hear a podcast about how to handle oneself in that situation. An episode of another podcast talked about how to handle that situation at the hospital during birth, but I felt something dedicated to communication throughout the pregnancy would be helpful.  Thanks for such a helpful podcast!Resources:Our #1 Secret Tip for Navigating Open AdoptionSigns that an Expectant Woman May Change Her Mind About Placing Her Child for AdoptionUnderstanding Expectant Moms Who are Considering AdoptionSupport the showPlease leave us a rating or review.

Can God redirect your day for someone's eternity? In this episode of Light + Truth, John Piper opens Acts 8:26–40 to show how Spirit-led detours can yield everlasting joy.

* Exodus Code: On the day Moses delivered the Ten Commandments about three thousand souls died (Exodus 32:28).

What should we expect when the Spirit comes? In this episode of Light + Truth, John Piper opens Acts 8:14–17 to show the empowering experience of receiving the Spirit.

The world prizes wisdom, power, and wealth—yet Scripture warns us not to boast in these fleeting pursuits. In this sermon from Jeremiah 9:23–24, we are reminded that true satisfaction cannot be found in the things of this world. Instead, God calls us to set our hearts on knowing Him, the source of steadfast love, justice, and righteousness.We examine the ways worldly ambitions can subtly pull us away from Christ and how only a greater affection for God can free us from their grip. Through biblical teaching, practical reflection, and insights from voices like C.S. Lewis and Thomas Chalmers, this message encourages us to pursue eternal treasures rather than temporary gains.Get a free trial of Logos at ReasonableTheology.org/Logos Support the showGET THE NEWSLETTEREach edition of the Reasonable Theology newsletter contains my latest article or podcast episode PLUS: A Theological Word or Phrase Explained Quickly and Clearly A Painting Depicting a Scene from Scripture or Church History Audio of a Hymn or other Musical Selection to Enjoy A Recommended Book or Resource to Expand Your Library SUBSCRIBE HERE
