Podcasts about responding

Are we helping our kids, or holding them back? In this episode of Facing the Dark, Wayne Stender and Dr. Kathy Koch explore the growing concern of overparenting and what truly drives it beneath the surface. Responding to research outlining common signs of overparenting, Dr. Kathy explains how fear and a parent's need to look successful often lead us to correct too often and trust too little. Together, they unpack the difference between guidance and control, love and fear. Using the image of Peter stepping out of the boat, this conversation reframes parenting as staying close without stepping in too soon, allowing kids to struggle, learn, and grow while knowing help is available. For parents who feel exhausted or unsure where the line is, this episode offers reassurance and a clearer vision: raising capable, resilient kids by learning when to step back rather than step in.

In today's episode, Gina addresses two listener questions regarding how anxiety related sensations and the beliefs about them are related and how we can use this relationship to our advantage in overcoming anxiety. Becoming more accepting of discomfort and understanding that such experiential states are temporary can go a long way in enabling our anxiety recovery process.

I start by addressing an essential concept: that nothing in the body is permanent, even if it feels that way during an anxious episode. This foundational idea sets the stage for understanding why anxiety sensations can seem so overwhelming and real. Often, the core struggle isn't just the discomfort of the sensation itself, but rather the belief attached to it—beliefs that often convey danger or a sense of permanence.Today's discussion is inspired by two listener inquiries that, while seemingly different, stem from a common thread of inquiry into the nature of belief. One listener grapples with the conviction that certain uncomfortable sensations, like an unrelenting itch, signify an unchangeable state of existence. They express feeling trapped in a cycle of anxiety, convinced that the discomfort equates to a serious, unending condition. I assure this listener and others experiencing similar issues that their feelings are not just valid, but also widely experienced by many on their anxiety journeys.In juxtaposition, I share another listener's transformative insight. Mary reflects on how my previous discussions helped her reframe a nagging sense of fear tied to physical sensations. She articulates that understanding her safety in the moment—despite her anxiety's insistence to the contrary—has shifted her perception of discomfort. This transition is crucial; it illustrates how recognizing the difference between feeling and danger can empower individuals to reclaim their mental peace, even in the presence of anxiety.#AnxietyCoachesPodcast #AnxietyRecovery #GinaRyan #MentalHealth #AnxietyRelief #Mindfulness #NervousSystem #AnxietySupport #HealingJourney #OvercomingAnxiety #HealthAnxiety #SomaticHealing #MindBodyConnection #WindowOfTolerance #PanicAttackRecovery #SelfCare #InnerPeace #StressManagement #NervousSystemRegulation #MentalWellness #AnxietySensations #JonKabatZinn #Mooji #MindfulLiving #ChronicStress #EmotionalHealing #SafetyFirst #FearOfPermanence #HolisticHealing #MentalHealthAwareness #AnxietyTips #BrainRetraining #Neuroplasticity #SelfCompassion #CalmYourMind #FightOrFlight #Vagus Nerve #SomaticAwareness #PanicRelief #AnxietyClearing #MentalHealthWarrior #PeaceOfMind #WellnessJourney #MeditationPractice #SelfHealing #CognitiveReframing #IntrusiveThoughts #GeneralizedAnxiety #SocialAnxiety #Breathwork #SafeInMyBody #MindsetMatters #InternalItch #BodyScanning #AnxietyManagement #StressReduction #HealthyMindSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Why does patience feel so hard—especially when you're doing all the “right” things? In this special re-air from a 2022 Dear Gabby Q&A, Gabrielle Bernstein explores one of the most misunderstood spiritual principles: patience as the natural result of faith, not something you force. Responding to listener questions about manifestation and feeling stuck, Gabrielle reframes patience as an energetic state that emerges when fear transforms into trust. Through live coaching, she offers practical guidance on surrendering to divine timing while navigating financial pressure, worthiness, and entrepreneurship. This episode is a powerful reminder that manifestation doesn't respond to hustle—it responds to grounded belief, alignment, and faith. When trust is strong, patience becomes effortless.Try Gabrielle's FREE magnetic energy meditation to supercharge your attracting powers http://bit.ly/40gOfueRead Gabrielle's #1 NYT Bestselling book: The Universe Has Your Back: Transform Fear Into Faith. http://bit.ly/45T1sfcIf you feel you need additional support, please consult this list of safety, recovery, and mental health resources.Disclaimer: This podcast is intended to educate, inspire, and support you on your personal journey towards inner peace.

Episode 185 of Kliq This is all about old school heat, and it starts in the most Kliq way possible: with Sean proudly nerding out over fountain pens while Kev immediately mistakes it for a vape. From there, the conversation takes a sharp left turn into classic road-story insanity when Nash tells an unbelievable Macho Man Randy Savage private jet rib that somehow still has me laughing and wincing at the same time. Then the show digs into the real world as Kev and Sean talk trade, China's surplus, and the kind of "nobody thinks this through" political decision-making that drives normal people insane. That energy carries into a longer, blunt discussion about immigration enforcement, due process, transparency, and why it feels like the rules change depending on who's in power. It's a heavy topic, but it's one of those segments where they actually talk like human beings instead of just picking a team and screaming. After that, things lighten up with listener questions and absolute Kliq staples, including Nash breaking down his ridiculously specific "clean" Waffle House order, how he signs Topps cards like it's an assembly line, and why BlueChew apparently has a fan club. If you're new here, this is the perfect example of how this show can go from aviation death spirals to protein macros to politics in under five minutes. And then it's time for wrestling, with Kev giving credit where it's due on RAW, the presentation, and why certain talent feels like a "made man" the second the machine decides to frame them that way. The centerpiece is Gunther vs AJ, which Kev calls a true psychology-based, hard-hitting old school match, including a finish that felt like a believable wrestling screwjob and the kind of heat that comes from denying fans what they want, not just "doing moves."

Growth targets keep climbing while cost lines tighten, and planning season starts to feel very personal for CMOs. AI threads through every conversation, zero-based thinking pulls against last year's baseline, and the goalposts never seem to hold still.  So the job becomes building a budget you can walk into the room with, own, and defend with conviction. To get there, Drew brings together Andrew Cox (Forrester), Lisa Cole (2X), and Alan Gonsenhauser (Demand Revenue). The conversation centers on tying spend to strategy, translating marketing into CFO-ready terms, and giving AI a role in the plan that the numbers can support. In this episode:  Andrew shares Forrester's view on moving past "last year plus X," building budgets around corporate objectives and campaigns, and forcing prioritization.  Lisa applies a zero-based mindset to business priorities, uses a 70-20-10 program mix for core, flex, and test, and frames marketing as an ATM of Audience, Trust, and Monetization.  Alan outlines the signals of strong and weak budgets, tying the majority of spend to growth campaigns and long-term value plans, and maintaining a year-round working relationship with the CFO. Plus:  Keeping tech spend in check, including guidelines for MarTech mix and contract flexibility  Positioning brand and PR in financial terms like pipeline influence, win rates, and pricing power  Responding to AI efficiency pressure by fixing workflows first and framing value in utilization, speed, and scalability  Why the budget should be the numerical expression of strategy, not a defense of legacy spend If you want to walk into your next budget review with a clear story, solid numbers, and conviction, this conversation will help you get there.  For full show notes and transcripts, visit https://renegademarketing.com/podcasts/ To learn more about CMO Huddles, visit https://cmohuddles.com/

Jennifer Eskew shares her journey from starting her career as a Virginia State Trooper to going deep undercover on major drug and gun cases before joining the ATF. She breaks down what undercover work was really like, including investigations involving outlaw bikers and murder-for-hire plots, and how those years on the street shaped her as an agent. Jennifer also opens up about transitioning into the ATF's arson and explosives division, responding to some of the most significant crime scenes in U.S. history — including the Olympic bombing and 9/11 at the Pentagon. The conversation explores the long-term trauma that comes with the job, the personal toll of high-risk investigations, and her cancer diagnosis linked to 9/11 exposure, offering a powerful look at the hidden cost of a life spent in law enforcement. _____________________________________________ #Undercover #TrueCrime #LawEnforcement #ATFAgent #PoliceStories #CrimeDocumentary #RealStories #youtubepodcast _____________________________________________ Thank you to PRIZEPICKS for sponsoring this episode: Visit https://prizepicks.onelink.me/LME0/IANBICK and use code IANBICK and get $50 in lineups when you play your first $5 lineup! _____________________________________________ Connect with Jennifer Eskew: https://www.jenniferclarkeeskew.com/ Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ Shop Locked In Merch: http://www.ianbick.com/shop _____________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 From State Trooper to ATF Agent: Jennifer Eskew's Career 01:23 Background, Motivation, and Writing Her New Book 02:56 Early Work in Healthcare and Rehabilitation 04:52 Choosing Law Enforcement and Family Support 09:09 Becoming a Female State Trooper 15:09 First Days on the Job and Learning the Reality 18:58 Rookie Mistakes, Hard Lessons, and Earning Respect 22:58 The Danger of Patrol Work and Daily Risk 35:35 Moving Undercover: Entering a Double Life 41:47 Undercover Operations: Drug and Gun Cases 54:00 Risks, Tactics, and Living Undercover 01:07:40 Undercover Stories That Still Stand Out 01:20:15 From State Police to Federal Agent 01:33:55 Joining the ATF and Federal Training 01:37:06 Biker Stings and High-Stakes Federal Cases 01:49:20 Inside a Murder-for-Hire Investigation 01:55:15 ATF Operations Beyond Undercover Work 02:03:51 National Response Team: Arson, Fires, and Bombings 02:14:17 Responding to 9/11 at the Pentagon 02:27:00 Aftermath of 9/11: Trauma, Debris, and Health Impact 02:36:31 Life After Law Enforcement, Reflection, and Legacy Learn more about your ad choices.

Tom will be joined by New Biology Clinic specialists and enrichment facilitators for a weekend of talks, food, music, and community. Join here.This session features two in-depth topics:1. How Money Actually Works-Tom reads and responds to recent articles from Mises.org, reflecting on the nature of fiat currency, the illusion of central banking, and the political consequences of how money is created.-He ties these ideas back to a section he wrote on money in Human Heart, Cosmic Heart (2016), describing a hypothetical system where one person creates all the money and inevitably owns everything—a parody of the current system.The 2 articles that Tom discussed is here.2. Does H. pylori Cause Stomach Ulcers?-Responding to a listener question, Tom critically analyzes the famous study by Barry Marshall that claimed to fulfill Koch's postulates.-He breaks down the methods used in Marshall's self-experiment.-Tom contrasts this with a 2025 Harvard article acknowledging that 80–90% of people with H. pylori never develop ulcers, challenging the idea that this bacterium is a singular causal agent.Q&A:Was Koch's postulate actually fulfilled for H. pylori and ulcers?Support the showWebsites:https://drtomcowan.com/https://www.drcowansgarden.com/https://newbiologyclinic.com/https://newbiologycurriculum.com/Instagram: @TalkinTurkeywithTomFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/DrTomCowan/Bitchute: https://www.bitchute.com/channel/CivTSuEjw6Qp/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCzxdc2o0Q_XZIPwo07XCrNg

If progesterone makes you feel wired, anxious, angry, emotional, or unable to sleep, this episode is for you. In this deeply important continuation of our reverse responding series, Dr. Brendan McCarthy—Chief Medical Officer of Protea Medical Center—returns to clarify what was missing in Episode 3C and to walk you through the real physiology, compassion, and treatment strategy behind reverse responding. Reverse responding is not intolerance, weakness, anxiety, noncompliance, or failure. It is an adaptive response rooted in threat-state physiology, chronic stress, and lived experience. Your body is not broken—it is protecting you. In this episode, Dr. McCarthy covers: What reverse responding actually is (and what it is not) The difference between sulfation and 5-alpha pathways Why labs often miss this entirely Why “just more progesterone” makes things worse How trauma, chronic stress, and safety shape hormone response The importance of earning permission from the nervous system Practical treatment pillars: Glycemic stability Circadian safety and sleep rhythm Reducing inflammatory load Gentle nervous system regulation Slow, low, respectful progesterone onboarding Supplement strategies used clinically (and what to avoid) Most importantly, this episode is a reminder: You are not the problem. Your body is doing something intelligent.   Dr. Brendan McCarthy is the founder and Chief Medical Officer of Protea Medical Center in Arizona. With over two decades of experience, he's helped thousands of patients navigate hormonal imbalances using bioidentical HRT, nutrition, and root-cause medicine. He's also taught and mentored other physicians on integrative approaches to hormone therapy, weight loss, fertility, and more. If you're ready to take your health seriously, this podcast is a great place to start.

In today's episode of the Connect Method Parenting Podcast, we're talking about embodying emotions. NOT just noticing them, NOT just allowing them, but fully living inside the emotional experience while simultaneously creating from the end in mind.I'm sharing ten lessons I've learned about emotional embodiment through real, everyday experiences, from almost running out of battery in my Tesla while crossing a mountain range, to completing a 72-hour fast, to sitting with doubt, fear, hunger, uncertainty, and growth without trying to escape or fix any of it.You'll hear how embodying emotions doesn't mean positive thinking, bypassing discomfort, or managing feelings so they go away. It means learning how to be fully present with fear and faith, worry and gratitude, and uncertainty and intention at the same time.In this episode, we explore:What it actually means to embody emotions, not just feel or process themHow to live from the end in mind without abandoning the present momentWhy powerful questions can completely shift your nervous systemHow beliefs quietly create your lived reality, especially in parentingWhy buffering (food, distraction, productivity) blocks emotional growthHow past “failures” can inform growth without defining youWhy presence, not willpower, is the practiceHow emotional embodiment leads to calm, confident parenting even during conflictMost importantly, we talk about how this work shows up in parenting: Staying grounded during tantrums. Holding boundaries without anger. Responding instead of reacting. Teaching your kids that emotions are safe,  and that nothing has gone wrong just because feelings are big.You don't need to fast for 72 hours or nearly get stranded on a mountain to practice this. You can start small, with irritation, overwhelm, frustration, or doubt, and learn how to sit in the full human experience while choosing connection, belief, and intention.This is the work. It's simple. It's powerful. And it changes everything.Learn more here --> https://connectmethodparenting.comNext Steps: Leave a review if you've been enjoying the CMP Podcast My Book: https://cmp.works/1xs My IG: https://cmp.works/ista

Together, they unpack how to begin age-appropriate conversations about sexuality as early as age four, why parents should replace “the talk” with ongoing discipleship, and how to address difficult topics like pornography, masturbation, and cultural confusion around identity. If you want practical language and a biblical roadmap for guiding your kids in a hyper-sexualized world, this conversation will equip you with the tools you need.

Donald Trump is preparing to be formally briefed by senior officials on options for responding to deadly protests in Iran. The US president says he is willing to back up his earlier threat to strike Iran over the deaths of civilian protesters.

We're celebrating our 300th episode with Topeka Fire Department Chief Chad Longstaff, who brings 36 years of experience, a brief retirement, and a deeply human approach to modern emergency response. The conversation moves beyond firefighting to the rise of EMS, the power of communication over judgment, and how a culture of dignity helps firefighters manage burnout while serving people at their most vulnerable. Chief Longstaff explains how Topeka is connecting fire, police, mental health providers, hospitals, and nonprofits like TRM into a single safety net focused not just on response, but on understanding and prevention.We also dig into the realities of homelessness, recurring 911 calls, and showing how respectful handoffs, fast outreach, and collaboration reduce strain and build trust. Chief Longstaff shares personal stories that reshaped his view of leadership and service, alongside moments of gratitude, highlighting that compassion-first public safety works. If you care about community health, prevention, and practical collaboration, this episode offers both a roadmap and a reason to believe we can do better together.To learn more about TRM, Click Here!To support TRM, Click Here! Send us a Message!

You declined another prospecting block today, didn't you? That internal meeting popped up. Someone needed "just five minutes." Your CRM screamed for attention. Before you knew it, another day passed without a single cold call, without one new connection request, without moving the needle on your pipeline. But hey, at least your calendar looked impressively full. Here's what nobody wants to admit: your jam-packed calendar isn't proof that you're too busy to prospect. It's proof you've made prospecting optional. And optional activities don't close deals or pay commissions. The Meeting Excuse Is Killing Your Pipeline Sales professionals love to point at their calendars as evidence of why they can't prospect. Look at all these internal meetings. See how packed my schedule is. How could I possibly find time for outbound activity? The real question is: when did you last decline an internal meeting to protect your prospecting time? Most salespeople never have. They treat every meeting invitation as a welcome escape from the discomfort of cold outreach. It's the perfect alibi when your manager asks about pipeline activity. But your calendar tells the truth about your priorities. If time blocking for prospecting isn't on it, prospecting isn't actually a priority. And if prospecting isn't a priority, why exactly are you in sales? You Don't Need Hours—You Need 15 Minutes The biggest lie salespeople tell themselves is that prospecting requires massive blocks of uninterrupted time. Two hours minimum. Otherwise, why bother starting? This is the same mental trap that keeps people from reading, exercising, or learning new skills. They convince themselves that 15 minutes isn't enough to matter, so they do nothing instead. Consider this: reading for 15 minutes daily gets you through 20-25 books per year. Walking for 15 minutes adds nearly a mile to your day. Fifteen minutes of focused prospecting can generate six to ten cold calls, dozens of personalized connection requests, or several high-impact video messages to ghosting prospects. The power isn't in the duration, but in consistent, focused execution of time blocking for sales activities. The 15-Minute Power Block Rules These 3 rules are requirements if you want your time blocking strategy to actually work. Rule 1: Single-task only.  Your 15-minute prospecting block is for prospecting. Not prospecting while monitoring email. Not prospecting between Slack messages. Just prospecting. If you spend three minutes calling and twelve minutes scrolling Instagram, you didn't prospect for 15 minutes. Rule 2: Everything else can wait. Yes, that includes your boss. You will not lose a customer or your job because you ignored email for 15 minutes. Responding at the end of your block is still professional. Think about it—if you were sitting face-to-face with your top client, would you stop mid-conversation to check email? Treat your power blocks with the same respect. Rule 3: Protect the block like your commission depends on it. Because it does. Top performers don't ask permission to prospect. They schedule it, block it, and defend it against every interruption. The coworker who needs "just a minute" can wait sixteen minutes. What Actually Happens in 15 Minutes Specificity kills procrastination. You're more likely to execute when you know exactly what you're doing during your time blocking windows. Eight to fifteen cold calls fit comfortably in 15 minutes. That's enough to connect with two or three decision-makers if you're efficient. Send ten to fifteen LinkedIn connection requests to stakeholders outside your network. Write and mail three handwritten notes to accounts you closed this month. Record personalized video messages for three prospects who've gone dark. None of these activities requires elaborate preparation or perfect conditions. They require you to show up for 15 minutes and do the work. That's it. Schedule Your Priorities or Someone Else Will Stephen Covey said the key isn't prioritizing your schedule, but scheduling your priorities. Most salespeople do the opposite—they let their calendars fill with whatever lands there first, then wonder why revenue-generating work never happens. Your calendar should reflect your income goals. If hitting quota requires consistent prospecting, your calendar should show consistent prospecting blocks. If building relationships with key accounts matters, those touchpoints should be scheduled. When you schedule your sales priorities first, everything else fits around them. When you don't, everything else crowds them out entirely. Look at your calendar right now. How many prospecting blocks do you see this week? If the answer is zero, you've just identified why your pipeline feels thin. How to Apply Time Blocking Starting Now Open your calendar and block three 15-minute windows for prospecting tomorrow. Morning, midday, and late afternoon. Label them "Prospecting Power Block" and set them as busy. Before each block, decide on one specific activity: cold calls, LinkedIn outreach, video messages, or handwritten notes. Don't try to do multiple things. Pick one and execute for the full 15 minutes. Close your email, silence your phone. For 15 minutes, nothing else exists except the activity you committed to. When the timer ends, return to everything else. Track your blocks for one week. Count how many you actually protected versus how many got sacrificed to "urgent" requests. This data will reveal whether you're serious about prospecting or just pretending to be. Make Time or Make Excuses—You Can't Do Both Top performers don't wait for the perfect time to prospect. They don't need two-hour windows or complete silence or ideal conditions. They make the time, even when it's just 15 minutes. Especially when it's just 15 minutes. That 15-minute window you're dismissing as too small? It could be the first conversation with your biggest account next quarter. It could be the connection that leads to your highest commission check. It could be the breakthrough that turns a struggling month into a record-breaker. But only if you actually protect it. Only if you treat time blocking for prospecting as non-negotiable. Only if you stop letting your calendar lie to you about why you're not doing the work. Your pipeline doesn't care how busy you looked today. It cares about the calls you made, the emails you sent, and the relationships you built. Fifteen focused minutes at a time. Stop letting busy work crowd out revenue-generating activities.

Peter J. Forcelli, a recently retired Deputy Assistant Director of the ATF, joins the show to break down his career inside some of the most dangerous criminal investigations in the country. From working as an NYPD homicide detective and surviving the 9/11 attacks to leading federal investigations targeting armed gangs and violent criminal organizations, Forcelli shares what the job actually looks like behind the scenes. He talks about developing complex cases, executing hundreds of search warrants, making over a thousand arrests, and the personal toll of dedicating a life to law enforcement. The conversation also explores accountability within the justice system, investigative excellence, and the responsibility that comes with holding power — including his role in uncovering wrongful convictions and fighting for justice when the system gets it wrong. _____________________________________________ #TrueCrime #LawEnforcement #FederalAgent #ATF #CrimeStories #BehindTheBadge #RealStories #youtubepodcast _____________________________________________ Thank you to PRIZEPICKS for sponsoring this episode:Visit https://prizepicks.onelink.me/LME0/IANBICK and use code IANBICK and get $50 in lineups when you play your first $5 lineup! _____________________________________________ Connect with Peter Forcelli:Website: https://www.peterjforcelli.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/peterforcelli/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100092203516682Instagram- https://www.instagram.com/pete_force/ Book: https://www.amazon.com/Deadly-Path-Operation-Furious-Lawyers/dp/B0CCMMQKCQ _____________________________________________ Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ Shop Locked In Merch: http://www.ianbick.com/shop _____________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 From NYPD to Federal Agent: Inside a Life of Law Enforcement 07:00 Growing Up and Choosing a Career in Policing 14:00 Early Years as an NYPD Officer on the Streets 21:00 Becoming a Detective and Joining Federal Task Forces 28:00 Freeing the Innocent and Working Major Federal Cases 37:00 When the Justice System Gets It Wrong 42:00 PTSD, Burnout, and the Toll of Major Investigations 51:00 9/11 as a First Responder: What He Saw That Day 01:00:00 Leaving the NYPD and Moving to the ATF 01:07:00 Life as a Federal Agent and National Investigations 01:13:00 Cartels, Phoenix, and the Fast and Furious Era 01:23:00 Fallout, Consequences, and Career Crossroads 01:29:00 Leading ATF Teams and Responding to Mass Shootings 01:36:00 Cancer, Survival, and Facing Mortality 01:41:00 Retirement, Legacy, and Lessons From a Life in Law Enforcement Learn more about your ad choices.

I'm joined by one of my favorite fellow podcasters and Substackers, Kaiser Kuo, host of the long-running Sinica Podcast, for a wide-ranging conversation on China, Venezuela, and America's shifting role in the world. We start by unpacking how trade ties between Venezuela and China have produced a deeply imbalanced relationship between Caracas and Beijing, before turning to Beijing's reaction to Trump's audacious move in Venezuela and the broader foreign-policy message it sends. What does China make of this "Donroe Doctrine"? What does it mean for Beijing's claims in Asia, including Taiwan? And as the United States retreats from the liberal international order it once championed, is China prepared—or even willing—to step into the void? https://www.globaldispatches.org/40percentoff

Our first response to God's awakening presence is this confession: God is not the avenue to treasure; He is the treasure. Listen to part 2 of our 2-week series, “Preparing for His Presence.”

In this episode, Kristina explains that inflammation itself is not inherently bad. In fact, it plays a critical role in healing, immune response, and recovery. The real issue arises when inflammation becomes chronic and the body remains stuck in a prolonged stress state, unable to fully recover or regulate.Kristina breaks down how chronic inflammation often shows up in women not as pain, but as bloating, puffiness, fatigue, brain fog, poor recovery, and stubborn fat loss. She highlights the paradox many women face: doing “all the right things” like training hard, eating carefully, and pushing for more discipline, yet seeing fewer results. Drawing from her own experience with unmanaged PCOS, hormonal disruption, and ongoing digestive and energy issues, she shares how a performance-driven mindset ultimately kept her body in a constant state of overwhelm.Kristina walks through what supporting the body actually looks like in practice, prioritizing sleep, fueling adequately, pulling back on excessive cardio, increasing daily walking, and focusing on nervous system safety. She outlines practical, sustainable habits around nutrition, supplementation, and lifestyle that help lower inflammation without extremes, emphasizing that healing happens when the body feels supported, not punished.WATCH ON YOUTUBE:⁠https://www.youtube.com/@kristinaturnure/podcasts⁠BALANCED BLUEPRINT MEMBERSHIP:https://builtgroupcoaching.my.canva.site/balancedblueprintmembershipBUILT AND BALANCED VIP COACHING:https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScV_IGO2VhRV415iIsiHz6TGr76wuH-loG2eGt068pZG474qw/viewform BUILT & BALANCED NEWSLETTER:⁠⁠⁠https://builtandbalanced.kit.com/dd0f3197cc⁠⁠⁠LIFE REWIRED IG:⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/LIFEREWIREDPODCAST/?utm_medium=copy_link⁠⁠KRIS IG:⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/kristinaturnure/?hl=en⁠⁠NASH BARS:https://nashnutrition.co/PTULA: DISCOUNT CODE KRISTINAT https://www.ptula.com/TRANSPARENT LABS: CODE KRISTINA https://athlete.transparentlabs.com/kristinaturnure

What if we mistake ourselves for the stories we've been told - that life is about our happiness, that we should wrestle control from circumstance, that we're separate from the world around us? A conversation about discovering that we didn't parachute into nature but grew from it, like apple blossoms on a vast tree of generations of living things. We ask: what becomes possible when we allow ourselves to feel the fullness of being human, grief and joy and all the rest, rather than contracting around our preferences? Could recognising ourselves as nature's response, rather than isolated egos demanding certainty, reveal what we're here to do?This week's Turning Towards Life is hosted as always by Lizzie Winn and Justin Wise of Thirdspace.Episode Overview00:00 Welcome to Turning Towards Life02:45 Creating Conversations That Matter04:35 The Irony of Pursuing Happiness08:21 The Metaphor of Apple Blossoms13:28 Rethinking Happiness18:10 The Complexity of Human Experience22:46 Engaging with Life's Uncertainty26:32 Responding to Life as Nature30:29 The Practice of Consciousness32:31 Closing ReflectionsThis is Turning Towards Life, a weekly live 30 minute conversation hosted by Thirdspace in which Justin Wise and Lizzie Winn dive deep into big questions of human living.

All of this is unnatural and unjustified to the point of being grotesque... Is the life of an apple blossom about the apple blossom? If not, then for precisely the same reason ours cannot be about us. And this is the great discovery of the second half of life: our life isn't, has never been, and can't ever be about us. Why would it? We are part of nature; why would our life be about us and not nature as a whole? … Nature is, of course, impersonal. It's agenda is universal and holistic, not restricted to the petty egoic tastes and preferences of a person. It is naïve to expect a human being to be able to comprehend the … universal agenda, just as it is naïve to expect an apple blossom to comprehend what its role is in the grand scheme of apple trees and life on Earth. We are segments of nature, not mere witnesses; we didn't parachute into nature, but grew out of it. Therefore, we are nature, as expressed in a particular volume of spacetime.Bernardo Kastrup - The Daimon and the Soul of the WestPhoto by Anastasiya Romanova on Unsplash---Join Us Live in 2026Foundations of Coaching, Feb 9-10 2026, OnlineOur two day introduction to the deep and wonderful way of working with people that we call 'Integral Development Coaching'.www.wearethirdspace.org/foundations-of-coachingTurning Towards Life Live Season 2, from March 2026Our Turning Towards Life live programme of community, learning and reflection runs in six month seasons, in person on Zoom once a month.

Yesterday afternoon, a U.S. Customs and Border Protection agent opened fire on a man and woman during an attempted traffic stop in East Portland, according to local and federal law enforcement officials. Responding to a report of a shooting, Portland Police found the man and woman who were shot and applied first aid before the two were transported to local hospitals for treatment.    U.S. Department of Homeland Security Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said the Portland shooting occurred as Border Patrol agents were stopping a vehicle. She claimed the driver and passenger were members of a Venezuelan gang and that the driver attempted to run over the federal agents, prompting one of the agents to open fire in self-defense.    According to Portland Police Chief Bob Day, the FBI is leading an investigation into the shooting. Oregon Attorney General Dan Rayfield said the Oregon Department of Justice would open its own investigation. Federal, state and local officials, including Portland Mayor Keith Wilson and Oregon Gov. Tina Kotek condemned the shooting. Portland Police said they made six arrests during a protest Thursday night outside the ICE facility in south Portland that attracted hundreds of people.    The shooting in Portland happened just one day after a U.S.  Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent shot and killed a U.S. citizen, Renee Nicole Good, in Minneapolis.    Joining us for more details is OPB reporter Joni Auden Land.

Guest: Behnam Ben Taleblu. The Iranian regime faces a critical mass of dissatisfaction, responding with violence against protesters and hospitals rather than addressing grievances. Inflation for food has reached nearly 73 percent, and medical security is nonexistent. Unlike in 2009, opposition is rallying around figures like Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi.

Allie launches 2026 unpacking alarming trends: NYC's new socialist mayor, Zohran Mamdani, sworn in on the Quran, vowing to replace "rugged individualism" with "the warmth of collectivism" — echoing the deadly history of communism that claimed over 100 million lives through forced "equality" and state tyranny. She exposes radical Islam's inherent conquest drive, from global jihad to Western infiltration, while addressing Tucker Carlson's downplaying of the threat. Minnesota Governor Tim Walz (D) decides not to run for re-election following allegations of widespread fraud from Somali immigrants. Plus, Trump's bold capture of Venezuelan dictator Nicolás Maduro. Biblical truth over toxic empathy: Reject collectivist lies, confront Islamist dangers head-on, and trust God's sovereign plan amid chaos.

Oil markets and financial markets seem to be shrugging off the major geopolitical story out of the weekend: the U.S. arrest of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro. "Investors are looking at the situation and not seeing a dramatic change in the state of affairs that could alter global markets in a major way," said Julia Coronado, founder of MacroPolicy Perspectives. "What makes most sense ... is to wait and see what unfolds," said Ben Kumar, head of equity strategy at investment management business 7IM. On today's show, we unpack it all.
