This episode began as an investigation into Sigmund Freud, Edward Bernays, propaganda, psychoanalysis, and the hidden machinery through which modern perception management came to be. But somewhere along the way, it became something much more personal. In Starlight Sickness, Kelly traces the strange lineage between Freud's abandonment of the seduction theory, Bernays's engineering of consent, and the ways power moves harm out of view by relocating it into the minds of the harmed. From the origins of modern public relations to the hall of mirrors inside ufology, this episode asks what happens when the tools we use to interpret reality also become the tools used to obscure it. How do we practice discernment without losing trust in our own perception? How do we make room for complexity without allowing complexity to become fog? And what does accountability look like when the story you were living inside begins to collapse? In light of recent allegations against her former best friend and creative partner Jay Christopher King, Kelly turns the same questions back on herself, beginning the process of untangling what happened, what she believed, what she may have gotten wrong, and what this community is owed now. This is an episode about gaslighting, trauma, consent engineering, ufology, and the terrifying difficulty of finding solid ground in a world built to manage perception. Topics explored: Sigmund Freud | Edward Bernays | propaganda | psychoanalysis | gaslighting | consent engineering | perception management | public relations | the unconscious | repression | seduction theory | the Oedipus complex | Jeffrey Masson | Freud Archives | Emma Eckstein | Wilhelm Fliess | institutional betrayal | therapeutic language | expert authority | trauma | memory | interpretation | accountability | narrative control | invisible government | torches of freedom | United Fruit Company | Guatemala coup | ufology | experiencer communities | anomalous experience | sexual trauma | abduction narratives | vulnerability and power | Jay Christopher King | The Experiencer Group | spiritual abuse | trust and betrayal | epistemic instability | discernment | reality testing | | truth and coherence | symbols and meaning | systems of control | manufactured consent | moral injury | the hall of mirrors Referenced in this Episode: Addressing the Allegations Against My Former Creative Partner, Jay Christopher King Starlight Sickness — Helico Tele Propaganda — Edward Bernays (1928) The Engineering of Consent — Edward Bernays (1947) The Aetiology of Hysteria — Sigmund Freud (1896) The Interpretation of Dreams — Sigmund Freud (1900) Three Essays on the Theory of Sexuality — Sigmund Freud (1905) The Assault on Truth: Freud's Suppression of the Seduction Theory — Jeffrey Masson (1984) Sigmund Freud and the Jewish Mystical Tradition — David Bakan (1958) Trust Me, I'm Lying: Confessions of a Media Manipulator — Ryan Holiday (2012) I Hope They Serve Beer in Hell — Tucker Max (2006) Support The Show Patreon: inquirywithkellychase.comSubstack: inquirywithkellychase.substack.com Connect with Kelly Website: kellychase.mediaX: @kellychasemediaInstagram: @kellychasemedia TIMESTAMPS 05:27 Propaganda and The True Ruling Power 09:20 Freudian Ick10:58 Jeffrey Masson, Heretic 13:18 Sigmund Freud and The Source of the Nile 17:49 Wilhelm Fliess, A Passionate Friendship 19:55 Emma Eckstein and The Stronger Sex 22:06 A Little Sleight of Hand24:21 The Oedipus Complex and The Nucleus of Neuroses 32:02 The Baby and the Bathwater 33:21 Trust the Experts 34:44 You Can't Do Anything With This Information 37:54 The Torches of Freedom 40:31 The Coup 43:11 A Koan 48:15 The Abstract Becomes Horrifyingly Personal 52:21 Responding to Jay Christopher King's Statement 01:01:03 Fall 2023 01:05:21 The Epistemic Black Boxes of Ufology Learn more about your ad choices.

Has sexual intimacy become viewed as "optional" in your marriage?If your spouse came to you before you got married and said "Just so you know, when we are married, I am never going to be sexual intimate with you" would you have still got married? Of course not, because BOTH men and women know that sexual intimacy is vital to a happy and healthy marriage. So why do some many people (low desire spouses) treat sex as "optional" after they get married?So many good husbands reach out to us sharing a similar frustration: they constantly hear that emotional intimacy comes first, so they work hard to meet their spouse's emotional needs. They help around the house, become more intentional with communication, plan date nights, show affection, attend counseling, read books, listen to podcasts, and genuinely try to become a better husband. Yet despite all their efforts, little or nothing changes when it comes to the sexual connection in their marriage. Over time, many of these husbands begin to feel discouraged, rejected, and confused. They wonder why they are putting so much effort into the relationship while their desire for greater sexual intimacy seems to remain unmet. Some feel as though sexual intimacy has become "optional" in marriage and that they have slowly been transformed from a husband into an errand-running roommate who has been placed into the "friend zone."Recently, we received a powerful email from a listener who expressed these exact feelings after spending years investing time, energy, and money into improving his marriage. His message resonated because it reflects the reality and frustration that many spouses experience but often don't know how to talk about.In this week's episode of the Ultimate Intimacy Podcast, we read portions of his email and dive into this difficult but important conversation. Why do so many husbands feel like they are doing everything they've been told to do, yet still feel disconnected sexually? Has the message of emotional intimacy been misunderstood? Is emotional connection always the missing piece, or are there times when other issues need to be addressed? What responsibility does each spouse have in creating a thriving intimate relationship?Join us as we discuss these questions, share our thoughts on the listener's concerns, and talk about how couples can move beyond frustration, resentment, and unmet expectations to create a marriage where both emotional and sexual intimacy are valued, prioritized, and nurtured.

Today, we're pulling Responding to the Holy Spirit, Part 1 from the archives. Just as we have passions for the world or our flesh to have its own way, the Holy Spirit who dwells within us has a holy passion to have His way in our lives. The Holy Spirit is jealous for our attention. As we humble ourselves and allow Him to reign in us, we find victory over our own desires and our passion for having our own way.

June 21, 2026 sermon from Providence Reformed Church Las Vegas by Pastor Travis Peterson

When opposition comes, how should followers of Jesus respond? In Acts 4, the early church faces threats and persecution, yet instead of fear, they respond with confidence in God's sovereignty and a prayer for greater boldness. In this verse-by-verse study of Acts 4:23–31, Pastor Curtis examines how the believers trusted God's plan, prayed for courage rather than comfort, and depended on the power of the Holy Spirit to continue proclaiming Christ. This passage reminds us that opposition is not a sign that God has abandoned us—it is often part of faithfully following Jesus. As we trust Him, our perspective, prayers, and dependence on God are transformed. Harvest Church is a non-denominational church in Arroyo Grande, California, committed to teaching God's Word and helping people grow in authentic relationship with Jesus. Join us Sundays at 9am & 11am. For more information, visit [www.agharvest.org](http://www.agharvest.org). This Christian sermon is part of our verse-by-verse study through Acts and is rooted in Bible teaching, expository preaching, and practical encouragement for following Jesus in everyday life.

Have you ever wondered if Chirch is only for those who have it all together? Have you avoided talking about God's holiness because you feel unsure if you can live up to it or worry about what God might expect from you?Pastor Jonathan leans in, reminding us that it can be humbling and even a bit scary to see how far we are from God's expectations. But he doesn't stop at the discomfort.From Isaiah to Peter to Moses, he gives a hopeful message: God doesn't bring you near to hurt you, but to heal you. What feels like being cut down could actually be God clearing space for something new and whole to grow. Even our seasons of pride or running away from God or running on borrowed faith aren't the end. The are invitations to see God, surrender, and be transformed.Scriptures ReferencedExodus 3:1-6; 2 Chronicles 26:1-23; Isaiah 6:1-13; Ezekiel 1:26-28; Luke 5:7-8; Galatians 5:19-26; Philippians 3:8; 1 Peter 1:14-15Key InsightsGod's holiness is present in His mercy and grace.When we see God's holiness, we are undone, but there is life in surrender and transformation.Approaching faith casually can lead to spiritual drift or pride.The path to renewal begins with humility and letting God “cut away” what doesn't belong.Key Sections00:00:00 - The Vision of HolinessIsaiah's experience shows how foreign and overpowering God's holiness is. It makes people feel small, but it also drives us to want to understand more and to change for the better.00:04:29 - Wrestling with HolinessIt seems like we seldom talk about holiness. There's a shared discomfort and inability to articulate something so awe-inspiring as God's holiness. Yet knowing His holiness is vital to knowing Him.00:08:21 - Responding with HumilityWhen we compare ourselves to others, we can feel pretty good about ourselves. But when we see the true standard of God's holiness, we are led away from pride and into deep humility.00:14:27 - God Closes the GapEven though we want to avoid what reveals our flaws, God shows us a path to closeness through sacrifice. This proves that He wants to restore us, not judge us, and that His holiness highlights His love and mercy.00:17:14 - Lessons from UzziahUzziah's life is both a warning and an encouragement. Trusting in someone else's faith or being too proud can lead to failure. However, knowing God personally and staying humble helps us stay close to Him and fulfill His purpose.00:24:57 - The Gift and Danger of Repeated ExposureComing close to sacred things without respect creates spiritual callousness. Real healing happens when we surrender and let God show us and take away our pain instead of hiding it or arguing with Him.00:28:46 - Surrendering for RestorationHumility and surrender—not performing or pretending—are the only ways to step forward into God's healing and restoration, moving us from brokenness to belonging.00:33:29 - Letting God Heal What HurtsWe should let God heal our deep wounds. It ends by encouraging us that getting rid of unhealthy things helps us get ready for new life. It concludes with hope and invites us to respond through worship.https://springhouse.captivate.fm/episode/arise-in-holinessSubscribe & Follow the PodcastDownload our appOur WebsiteOnline Tithes & OfferingsJoin our LivestreamGathering TimesSundays, 9:00 AMSundays, 11:00 AMThursdays, 6:00 PMContact InfoSpringhouse Church14119 Old Nashville HighwaySmyrna TN 37167615-459-3421CCLI License 2070006

The Junior Transport Minister claims he'll liaise with Transport Infrastructure Ireland with a view to reducing the speed limit on a dangerous section of a Clare national secondary road. Residents of Darragh recently met with Minister of State at the Department of Transport, Independent TD Seán Canney, to highlight their concerns around the speed limit, poor road surface and inadequate signage on their stretch of the N68. Over 1,100 locals signed a petition seeking upgrades at the location. Responding to Meelick Fianna Fáil TD Cathal Crowe in the Oireachtas Transport Committee, Minister Canney says the residents have "straight forward requests".

Our headmaster often uses this paradigm for the ideal Heights graduate: he's the kind of young man you'd want your daughter to marry. In a recent article for the Forum, Dr. Joseph Lanzilotti asked: in our current culture, how does a boy grow up to be the kind of man who desires that life? Delving into Church sources, both scriptural and magisterial, he has assembled the outline of a theology of masculinity. Responding to Pope St. John Paul II's description of the "feminine genius," Dr. Lanzilotti considers the prospect of a complementary "masculine genius," and what it means for our boys.

Women Leaders Career Advancement: The 4-Relationship Framework and Personal Success Plan (2026) Executive Summary: Women leaders career advancement stalls most often at the relationship level, not the skill level. Women hold only 29% of C-suite roles despite representing nearly half the workforce. Former IBM VP Shelmina Babai Abji reveals the four strategic relationships that accelerate promotion and the Personal Success Plan that keeps you on track week after week. Quick Takeaways: Women leaders career advancement remains stalled at every pipeline level for the 11th consecutive year (McKinsey, 2025). The four relationships that accelerate promotion are: boss, peers, mentors, and sponsors — and all four must be intentionally built. Only 31% of entry-level women have a sponsor, vs. 45% of men — closing this gap is one of the highest-ROI actions you can take. Responding to bias with proof, not reaction, protects your power and changes minds more effectively than confrontation. A Personal Success Plan reviewed weekly keeps your business results, relationships, competencies, and leadership brand advancing together. Key 2025–2026 statistics on women leaders career advancement: the C-suite gap, the broken rung, and the sponsorship deficit. Women leaders career advancement has a number that should stop you: for every 100 men promoted to their first manager role, only 81 women make the same leap. That gap — what McKinsey researchers call the "broken rung" — has barely moved in years. And it is not primarily a skills gap. It is a visibility gap, a relationship gap, and a strategy gap. I'm Sabrina Braham, MA, MFT, PCC — executive leadership coach with over 30 years of experience and host of the Women's Leadership Success Podcast, ranked in the top 1.5% globally with over 950,000 downloads. In Part II of my interview with Shelmina Babai Abji — TEDx speaker, former IBM Vice President, and author of Show Your Worth — we go deep on the practical mechanics that drive women leaders career advancement forward. If you caught Part I, you already have Shelmina's Power Quotient framework for silencing self-doubt. This episode is what comes next: the external strategy. How do you intentionally build the four relationships that move careers forward? How do you handle a boss who doesn't see your value? How do you navigate workplace bias without giving your power away? And what is the weekly planning practice that keeps even the most overwhelmed leader — including single mothers carrying impossible loads — on a clear path to the C-suite? This is one of the most actionable episodes I have recorded in 19 years of podcasting. Let's get into it. Why Women Leaders Career Advancement Stalls: The Strategy Gap The McKinsey Women in the Workplace 2025 report — which surveyed approximately 10,000 employees across 124 organizations — found that women hold only 29% of C-suite roles, unchanged from 2024, and that women remain underrepresented at every level of the corporate pipeline for the eleventh consecutive year. Women of color face a steeper drop-off at every rung. The same research surfaces a critical sponsorship gap that most women don't know exists: only 31% of entry-level women have a sponsor, compared to 45% of men at the same level. Sponsorship — not mentorship — is the relationship that most reliably unlocks promotions, stretch assignments, and visibility with senior leaders. And women are starting from a 14-point deficit. Shelmina's response to this data is direct: "The reason the numbers are as bad as they are is we cannot wait for organizations to change, or for people to change. We have to be the change we want to see." That is not resignation to an unfair system. It is a strategic recognition that women leaders career advancement is not waiting for institutions to fix the pipeline — it is built deliberately, relationship by relationship, decision by decision, week by week. The Four Relationships That Accelerate Women Leaders Career Advancement Shelmina's book Show Your Worth dedicates an entire chapter to what she calls "intentional relationships" — the four categories of professional connection that, when built strategically, become the scaffolding of a senior career. She credits them with her own advancement from immigrant engineer to IBM Vice President. Relationship 1: Your Boss This is the most high-leverage relationship in your career, and the one most women invest in least strategically. "At the end of the day, you work for your boss, not an organization," Shelmina says. "It is up to you to build that relationship." The mechanism is not flattery or politics. It is a deliberate daily practice of contributing value that advances your boss's success — specifically, unique value that makes you essential. Shelmina describes this as "leaning into your authenticity and your uniqueness until you become essential to your boss's success." When you are essential to your boss's success, you are in a position of power to negotiate what you want — flexible boundaries, stretch assignments, sponsorship, promotion recommendations. Power in a workplace relationship is not seized; it is earned through indispensability. Practically, this means: Understanding your boss's most critical success metrics and aligning your work visibly to them Ensuring your boss has a "front-row seat" to your contributions — proactively, not passively Asking for help on stretch assignments (which demonstrates self-awareness, not weakness) Preparing thoroughly for performance reviews with documented, outcome-quantified contributions Relationship 2: Peers Peer relationships are the often-overlooked engine of influence. In 2026's increasingly matrixed organizations, influence flows horizontally as much as it flows vertically. Peers who trust you, advocate for you in rooms you're not in, and co-create solutions with you are a form of organizational capital that compounds over time. Shelmina notes that the same principle applies here as with the boss relationship: the foundation is contribution, not connection for its own sake. Peers who see you as someone who makes their work better — not someone who competes with them for credit — become your most organic advocates. Relationship 3: Mentors — The Right Ones, Not Just Any Here Shelmina offers a counterintuitive observation that stopped me when I heard it. She regularly asks women at conferences: "How many of you have mentors?" Almost every hand goes up. Then she asks: "How many of those mentors have pushed you, accelerated your success, made you significantly better personally or professionally?" Most hands go down. "We need to be intentional and strategic even when we look for mentors," she says. "We must know: why is this person the right mentor for me, at this point in time?" A mentor who is a perfect match for where you are today may be misaligned with where you need to go next. Great mentors: Have navigated the specific transition you are facing Will push you, not just validate you Are willing to give you honest, sometimes uncomfortable feedback Have relationships and visibility at levels above your current role Shelmina's own pivotal mentor was Susan Whitney — an IBM General Manager who, in the two minutes it took to walk from a roundtable back to an office, changed the entire direction of Shelmina's career by asking one question: "Where do you want to be in five years?" That question planted a seed. Shelmina did not have the answer — but she pursued Susan as a mentor, did whatever it took to get noticed and earn time with her, and eventually built the relationship that shifted her from "doing a great job in my current role" to "thinking strategically about what I want to do next, and next, and next." Relationship 4: Sponsors — Your Most Powerful Accelerant A mentor gives advice. A sponsor gives opportunity. This distinction is critical and widely misunderstood. Sponsors use their own political capital to advocate for you — in the rooms where promotions are decided, on the committees where assignments are distributed, in the conversations where names are put forward. A sponsor says your name when you are not in the room. A mentor helps you prepare for the room. Both matter. But only one moves the needle on the broken rung. Given that women enter careers with a 14-point sponsorship deficit compared to men, closing this gap is one of the highest-ROI investments you can make in your own career advancement. You earn a sponsor the same way you earn every other relationship: by making yourself visible, demonstrating your capability in high-stakes situations, and becoming someone whose success the sponsor wants to be associated with. Shelmina's guidance: identify one person at two levels above you who has both visibility with senior leadership and the willingness to advocate. Do the work to get in their orbit. When you are there, make their decision to sponsor you easy — by showing up with the kind of work that reflects well on anyone who recommends you. The four relationships that drive women leaders career advancement: boss, peers, mentors, and sponsors How to Navigate Workplace Bias Without Losing Your Power As a woman of color scaling the corporate ladder, Shelmina encountered both internal barriers — the self-doubt and fear of belonging described in Part I — and external barriers: leaders who did not automatically see her as a candidate for leadership roles, colleagues who underestimated her capabilities, and structural biases that filtered opportunity away from people who didn't fit the existing template. Her framework for navigating bias is one of the most strategically intelligent approaches I have encountered in 30 years of coaching. It has three operating principles: Principle 1: Don't React — Prove "When you react, you give your power away to them....

In this episode of Cultish, Andrew Soncrant is joined once again by former Mormon and Reformed Baptist pastor Braden Patterson to respond to a popular LDS video challenging Protestant Christianity. Together they tackle four foundational questions often raised by Mormon apologists: • Who has the authority to interpret Scripture? • What is the purpose of life? • How can a person know they are saved? • Why did God stop giving new revelation and Scripture? Drawing from Scripture, church history, and Braden's firsthand experience growing up in Mormonism, this conversation examines the differences between historic Christianity and the teachings of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Along the way, Andrew and Braden discuss the sufficiency of Scripture, assurance of salvation, the Gospel of grace, the nature of true authority, and the Mormon claim of a "restoration" of the church. If you've ever wondered how Christians should respond to common Mormon objections—or if you're a Latter-day Saint honestly exploring these questions for yourself—this episode is for you.

In this episode, host Dr. Samantha Yammine is asking a hard-hitting question: why are scientists giving salmon cocaine? Well, it turns out that the reasoning has less to do with throwing a fish rave and more to do with understanding how chemical pollutants affect animals living in our waterways. Sam is joined by study author Dr. Jack Brand to get further insight and talk about what exactly happens to salmon when they're exposed to human drugs. Before that, she'll discuss a new study that explains how stress messes with the way our brains make connections. And later, Sam digs into why PCOS has been officially renamed PMOS and what that means for people who suffer from the condition moving forward.

In this week's episode of the podcast, Colleen gets honest about what it's really like to homeschool multiple neurotypes at once—and how you can stop trying to make one-size-fits-all solutions work for wildly different brains. She talks about building flexible rhythms that respect your children's unique needs (and your sanity!), why chasing the "perfect" curriculum isn't the answer, and practical ways you can manage energy instead of just managing lesson plans. Key Takeaways Ditch One-Size-Fits-All: Stop trying to teach every child the same way—build flexible rhythms that honor each brain's unique needs. Focus on Energy, Not Just Curriculum: Prioritize managing everyone's energy and support needs over finding the "perfect" curriculum. Rotate, Station, Solo: Structure your day with rotating support, creative stations, and independent solo work to keep kids engaged and supported. Fair Isn't Equal: Remember that fairness means giving each child what they need, not making everything the same for everyone.

If private practice has felt harder lately, you're not imagining it. Caseloads can take longer to fill, marketing strategies that once worked may not be working the same way, and many therapists are carrying more anxiety about money than they were a few years ago. This week, I'm joined by Diane Webber, a coach in both Money Skills for Therapists and Money Skills for Group Practice Owners, to talk about how we've been responding to these shifts inside our own work. We share some of the changes we've made in our business, from changing our outward-facing name and restructuring programs to creating more community and bringing fresh energy onto the team. More than anything, this conversation is about what it looks like to stay present, curious, and responsive when the things you've relied on no longer work the way they used to.Ready to feel more calm and confident about your money? Do you feel confused, ashamed, or uncertain about your finances? Are you craving support to help shift your money mindset and transform your relationship with money? Are you ready to develop the skills and confidence you need to finally take control of your business finances and build a practice that actually takes care of you? If so, I'd love for you to join me for one of my free online workshops, designed specifically for private practice owners who feel stuck—whether it's mindset blocks, avoidance, or the technical side of managing money. In just one hour together, you'll learn practical tools, strategies, and next steps to move forward in your business (and your life) with clarity, intention, and ease. Click here to explore upcoming workshops and save your spot or register to get the replay.Responding to Shifts Without Blaming Yourself When something stops working in your practice, you might assume you've done something wrong. But often, that's not the case— it's that the market has changed, your clients' needs have shifted, or the offer, structure, or support system that once worked is ready to evolve. Diane and I talk about how helpful it can be to move from self-blame into curiosity. Instead of asking, “Why isn't this working anymore?” we can ask, “What is this showing me?” Adapting your practice doesn't mean you need to have all the answers right away. Small, thoughtful changes — like experimenting with new forms of support, rethinking your marketing, adjusting a program structure, or bringing in team members who help you see things differently can create a lot of clarity over time. Small Experiments Beat Waiting for Certainty Meaningful change in your practice can come from a series of small decisions day by day rather than one major breakthrough.

As a business owner, it's easy to believe you need to figure everything out on your own. But growth is often more sustainable when you allow yourself to receive support. That support can come through coaching, community, trusted colleagues, or a stronger team. It can also come from taking a step back, getting honest about what is and isn't working, and being open to making the shifts that become apparent once you have a little more perspective.

About Linzy Bonham: Linzy Bonham is a therapist turned money coach who helps private practice owners and health professionals feel calm, confident, and in control of their finances through her podcast, free workshops and comprehensive programs: Money Skills for Therapists and Money Skills for Group Practice Owners. It all started when she saw her extremely skilled colleagues struggle with the money side of business. Some had even left private practice, or were avoiding starting one, because managing finances was just too stressful. So Linzy set out to support helpers and healers with developing peace of mind about their money. Since so many were never taught money skills, she focuses on the “how” of making the business side of private practice doable — and even super satisfying.
