    Send a textBlame feels quick, but it's the slow lane. We dig into why pointing the finger protects the ego while quietly stealing momentum, and how a simple shift—owning the outcome—can speed everything up. Using a real moment from our workflow with a new podcast editor, we show how unclear standards, missing examples, and weak onboarding lead to frustration, and how reframing the problem as our responsibility unlocks practical fixes that stick.We walk through the “point the thumb” rule and apply it to everyday situations: running late because of a coffee line, snapping in an argument, or assuming a teammate “should have known.” Instead of hunting for who to blame, we ask, “What could I have done to prevent this?” That single question turns excuses into actions: define “done,” write a one-page brief, share before-and-after examples, schedule a quick kickoff, and build a short review loop with clear acceptance criteria. In personal relationships, it looks like pausing before reacting, restating what you heard, and owning your tone and timing before stating what you need.This conversation isn't about letting others off the hook; it's about choosing the only lever you fully control. Responsibility compresses timelines, strengthens trust, and reduces repeat mistakes because it upgrades the system instead of escalating the conflict. Blame stalls; ownership compounds. If you're ready to move faster toward your goals with less drama and more clarity, this mindset will change your week.If the message lands, share this episode with a friend who's ready to swap excuses for action, and subscribe so you never miss Five Minute Friday.

    The Epstein Files Fallout: Navigating Client Trauma, Justice Fatigue, and Clinical Responsibility In this episode of the Modern Therapist's Survival Guide, Curt Widhalm and Katie Vernoy explore the emotional and clinical fallout following the release of the Epstein files. Rather than reacting to breaking news, they focus on what happens after the headlines fade—when trauma resurfaces, justice feels out of reach, and both clients and therapists are left carrying the weight. This conversation examines how trauma responses show up in the therapy room, how therapists can avoid minimization or burnout, and what clinical responsibility looks like when systems fail and outrage turns into numbness. Key takeaways for therapists: How public disclosures can retraumatize survivors and trigger moral injury Why clients may experience numbness, irritability, or hopelessness instead of anger How to ethically hold space without rushing clients toward resolution Ways therapists can manage their own exposure and remain grounded The importance of containment, validation, and agency during collective trauma Full show notes and resources available at:https://mtsgpodcast.com Join the Modern Therapist Community: Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/therapyreimagined Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/mtsgpodcast Modern Therapist's Survival Guide Creative Credits Voice Over by DW McCannhttps://www.facebook.com/McCannDW/ Music by Crystal Grooms Manganohttps://groomsymusic.com/

    Lawyers have always relied on tools—but AI is different. It doesn't just assist with tasks; it makes decisions, applies judgment, and shapes outcomes. In episode #602 of the Lawyerist Podcast, Stephanie Everett talks with Damien Riehl about what ethical responsibility looks like when AI starts doing legal work on its own.  Their conversation examines how AI systems embed values, why verification matters more than transparency, and how lawyers can responsibly use tools they don't fully understand. They also explore what legal expertise looks like in an AI-powered future—and why intuition, trust, and integrity may matter more than ever as machines take over the “widgets” of legal work.  Listen to our other episodes on Ethics and Responsibility in AI.  EP. 582 Deepfakes, Data, and Duty: Navigating AI Ethics in Law, with Merisa Bowers Apple | Spotify | LTN  EP. 543 What Lawyers Need to Know About the Ethics of Using AI, with Hilary Gerzhoy Apple | Spotify | LTN    Have thoughts about today's episode?

    This episode of MakingChips is different from most conversations we have on the show, and it needed to be. In late 2025, the manufacturing community was shaken by the murder of Amber Czech, a welder who was killed by a coworker after reporting harassment multiple times. That tragedy forced many of us to confront an uncomfortable truth: workplace violence and harassment are not abstract issues. They are real, ongoing, and present in the trades today. In this episode, Paul Van Metre is joined by Nush Ahmed, CEO of Sisterhood of Trades, along with two national experts who work directly on workplace violence and gender justice. Jessica Stender of Equal Rights Advocates and Anna Van Balen of Futures Without Violence bring decades of experience working with employers, workers, and policymakers to help address harassment, escalation, and prevention in real workplaces. Together, we talk candidly about how harassment often becomes normalized in the trades, why underreporting is so common, and how unchecked behavior can escalate into violence. We also discuss what shop owners and leaders can do today, not just to comply with the law, but to build workplaces that are genuinely safe, respectful, and welcoming. This conversation is about responsibility. It's about leadership. And it's about recognizing that culture, policies, and daily behavior all play a role in preventing harm. For owners, managers, and anyone who cares about the future of manufacturing, this episode is a call to take workplace safety seriously, before another tragedy forces the issue.

Define Your Target ROIHave a clear goal and outcomes in mind because the event is what you make it.Rightsize your investment. There's no shame in starting small, like a shared booth, table at StartUp CPG, sampling out of a backpack, etc. Even big brands need to be cautious of their spending because it adds up fast. But if you want to make a big splash, be willing to spend the money on the right opportunity.Aim to have your agenda 60% planned, but 40% flexible, because you never know who might pop up with some exciting and unexpected.2. Plan AheadBook your accommodations early, because everything near the Convention Center fills up quickly and gets very expensive.Find the sessions you want to attend, people you want to meet, and booths you want to visit through the app and social media posts, but also decide what's non-negotiable and what's optional for you, because you will get exhausted/overwhelmed.Make dinner reservations, book event venues, and meeting rooms in advance because there are a ton of competing groups looking for limited time slots.Order all your materials, swag, outfits, etc., well ahead of time because shipping delays happen, and you don't want to be caught empty-handed or paying the steep price to rush reprint in Anaheim.3. Be Clear & CompellingHave your 5-second pitch and main talking points ready, because there are way too many people and not enough time to stumble or be vague.Bring the energy, passion, and vibes because that attracts people to your booth, lifts everyone's spirits, and makes you memorable.Ask lots of questions to get to know people and how you can help each other. It can reveal incredibly powerful information for you both.4. Crush Your BoothMake sure it's clear what you're selling and what makes it special, otherwise your booth is likely to be missed (unless you're drawing attention, see below).Be unique but authentic, have a compelling story or theme for the show, and be engaging and fun as people walk up.Have events or activities at your booth that attract a crowd, and bring enough samples/goodies to go around. Tip: people are drawn to anything that's more than a tiny bite on a toothpick or a generic tote bag.Have a method for politely exiting conversations, like handing them off to an associate or introducing them to another guest, so you can be available when that critical retailer, investor, broker, or press badge arrives.5. Draw AttentionApply for a Nexty, participate in the Pitch Slam, or partner on an innovation with another popular brand. Do things that will make you more visible.Send out press releases, make announcements on social media, and offer the press a unique and exciting story to draw them to your booth.Invite an industry rockstar or celebrity to your booth for a meet and greet.Host a happy hour with a prominent group, like B Corp.6. Connect With Your CommunityAttend events hosted by your membership communities (B Corp, 1% for the Planet, Regenerative Organic, Upcycled, Non-GMO, Fair Trade, Climate Neutral, Climate Collaborative, Naturally Network, Purpose Pledge, Startup CPG, Project Potluck, :INCLUDED, etc.)Post updates in your preferred social channel (pictures, top finds, great insights, events, selfies, etc), tag people, and comment on others' posts! Wear your affiliations (shirts, hats, pins, stickers, lanyards, badges, etc).7. Take Care of YourselfHydrate and eat real food, or at least snack your way to well-balanced meals or your stomach and energy levels will regret it later.Dress comfortably and in layers. You'll be walking a lot, in and out of buildings, and the weather can change quickly. Bonus: dress memorably.Rest your feet and your back whenever you can. They will be sore.Get full nights of sleep when you can, and take some downtime in between things to recharge your batteries and brain.8. Be Brave, Be ActiveMeet people! That's why you're going. Don't just hide in your hotel, your booth, or in your co-worker/friend group. Get out there.Attend happy hours, events, and dinners even if you worked the booth all day, because that's the time to make real human connections.Go talk to that hero, buyer, investor, press, celebrity, etc because that's why they're here, and why you're here.9. Don't Try to Do it AllThe show is way too big to see every booth. Decide what's most important. It can help to pick a theme to focus, like a category, certification, stage of business, etc.There are too many sessions, events, and happy hours. Pick a focus and try to limit your FOMO. Divide and conquer with your team if you can.If you've been going as long as I have, you'll wish you could spend time with all your friends, collaborators, clients, podcast guests, and more… but it's best to be at peace with what you can do instead of worrying about what you can't.10. Follow Through Take notes on business cards, in an app, or wherever works for you because you won't remember every conversation, idea, or to-do item.Digest what you learned, who you met, and how you want to follow up each evening before that information gets too foggy.Make social posts each day, because you'll be too burned out and busy to catch up on social media after the show.Follow up with people during and after the show to solidify that new connection.Links:Natural Products Expo West: https://www.expowest.com/en/home.html10 Tips to Crush Expo West Download: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1eBpd7dVhxB-30-yPrvQ8Mn8nAar5oYOUx6fX1B3Wevc/edit?usp=sharing.

    On today's episode of Uncommon Sense with Ginny Robinson, we continue unpacking the devastating revelations found in the Epstein files. What's been exposed isn't just corruption, it's a system that protects powerful criminals while innocent victims are silenced.The facts are very disturbing. There has been absolutely no accountability. And the victims deserve more than headlines and non-answers.We're asking hard questions about leadership, responsibility, and why justice still feels so out of reach. If powerful names are involved, then powerful action must follow. No more silence. No more avoidance. The victims deserve truth, and they deserve justice. NOW.--https://www.bible.com/

    Send a textIn this episode, I sit down with Kristina Morros, a former critical care nurse anesthetist and the founder of Get Healthy or Get Dead.Kristina shares her journey from working inside the medical system to advocating for functional medicine, patient education, and personal responsibility in health. We talk openly about where the healthcare system works well — especially in emergencies — and where it falls short when it comes to creating long-term health.Kristina explains why focusing on root causes like gut health, hormones, stress, sleep, hydration, and movement matters more than chasing quick fixes or health trends. We also discuss how stress and nervous system regulation are still widely underestimated, and why modern life keeps so many people stuck in a constant state of overload.We touch on the pandemic, misinformation, and why so many people have lost trust in institutions — and how that makes it even more important to stay curious, ask questions, and take an active role in your own health decisions.This conversation is about balance, awareness, and getting back to basics. Not extremes. Not perfection. Just honest, practical steps toward feeling better and staying healthy long term.If you've ever felt overwhelmed by conflicting health advice or unsure who to trust, this episode will help you zoom out, think critically, and reconnect with what really matters.Find Kristina Morros here:Website & coaching:https://kristinamorros.com https://gethealthyorgetdead.comBook + resources:https://gethealthyorgetdead.comSubstack:https://gethealthyorgetdead.substack.comInstagram: @gethealthyorgetdead

    Summary In this In the Trenches episode, Andy talks with Norman Patnode, Principal at ProChain Solutions, about what it really takes to deliver projects faster and more predictably. With a background in aerospace engineering, the Air Force, and decades of consulting, Norman brings a systems-level perspective to project delivery that goes far beyond managing task lists. They explore the difference between task management and project management, why critical chain thinking shifts the conversation from dates to priorities, and how changing a few key rules can dramatically improve delivery performance. Norman shares why "prioritize, focus, and finish" is more than a slogan, how multitasking quietly robs teams of productivity, and what leaders can do to create clarity and alignment. You'll also hear insights about managing constraints, learning how to learn, and why curiosity is one of the most valuable leadership traits. If you're looking for practical, systems-based ways to improve delivery and reduce chaos on your projects, this episode is for you! Sound Bites "Critical chain is a system to help you get projects done faster and more predictably." "Critical chain is really about how do we help people prioritize, focus, and finish." "I would never go back to what I was doing before. It has ruined me. I just wouldn't live in that world again." "Multitasking robs project teams of anywhere from 15 to 65% of their productivity." "If there are no priorities, then really none of them are important." "The focus is not on getting to a perfect schedule. It's on creating and strengthening alignment of the team's effort." "Reality is undefeated." "Any system has a very few number of constraints, usually one." "If you manage the constraint, you manage the system." "You don't have to learn everything. You just have to be curious and learn how to learn." "Big, impactful things in the world get done through projects." Chapters 00:00 Introduction 01:33 Start of Interview 01:41 Norman's Current Role and Responsibilities 02:20 Norman's Career Journey 07:00 Task Management vs. True Project Management 10:40 Introducing Critical Chain 15:41 Common Objections to Critical Chain 17:20 Changing the Rules to Improve Delivery 22:56 A Powerful Leadership Habit 25:54 Career Lessons and Critical Turning Points 31:32 How Norman Continues to Develop Himself 35:53 How to Connect with Norman 36:17 End of Interview 36:56 Andy Comments After the Interview 40:37 Outtakes Learn More You can learn more about Norman and his work at ProChain.com. Connect with Norman on LinkedIn here: LinkedIn.com/in/npatnode/ For more learning on this topic, check out: Episode 472 with Mark Reich. It's a discussion about lean, which is certainly not precisely the same as critical chain or theory of constraints. But Mark is similarly geeky about how to improve how we go about projects. I think you'll find episode 472 a great follow-up to today's discussion. Episode 328 with Terry Schmidt. Terry's passion is LogFrame, and though it's different from what we talked about today, Terry's geekiness for LogFrame could inspire you to think differently about projects. Episode 320 with Greg Githins. Greg wrote a book about thinking strategically.

    In this episode of the Sober.Coffee Podcast, hosts Mike and Glenn welcome guest Tim D to the coffee shop for a raw exploration of recovery titled "No Longer Paralyzed—healing through ‘help.'" The trio dives into the defining habits of alcoholism and the realization that while habits drive us, we have the power to shift from cycles of negativity to victories. They reflect on the "box" of addiction that once kept them paralyzed and why the simple, repeated action of attending meetings remains a vital lifeline. Key Discussion Points:The Power of Help: Challenging the stigma of reaching out, the group discusses why asking for help is a "superpower" and the essential act of "ripping off the mask" to find clarity.Action Over Impulse: A deep look at why we often don't "feel" like doing the right thing, but choose to do it anyway to maintain the gift of sobriety.New Beginnings: How new members energize the program by reminding veterans of where they came from, reinforcing that most don't have "another relapse" in them.Responsibility in a Troubling World: Navigating a society filled with conflicting opinions by focusing on personal responsibility and being "aware" enough to choose life over a drink. “I walk the sober path of recovery intensely and reap rewards beyond imagination...

    In this interview episode of Youth Worker on Fire, Doug Edwards sits down with Eli, a Jerusalem-based tour guide fluent in English, Hebrew, and Aramaic, for a thoughtful and wide-ranging conversation about faith, culture, history, law, grace, and life in modern Israel. Recorded at the end of a leadership journey through Israel, this conversation moves beyond headlines and into deeper questions about: • Growing up Jewish in Israel • Military service as a character builder • Responsibility, leadership, and cultural identity • Law versus grace in Jewish and Christian traditions • The historical roots of biblical law • Why Jerusalem is more than a city of conflict • Coexistence among Jews, Christians, and Muslims • What Western democracies and Israel share in common Eli shares wisdom from Jewish tradition, reflections on the Ten Commandments and the Sermon on the Mount, and insights into how faith, accountability, and mercy intersect in both Judaism and Christianity. This episode is especially valuable for: ✔ Youth pastors teaching students about worldview ✔ Ministry leaders navigating cultural conversations ✔ Christian educators discussing law and grace ✔ Parents helping students process global events ✔ Anyone seeking thoughtful dialogue instead of polarization This is not a political episode. It is a conversation about culture, responsibility, coexistence, and the values that shape democratic societies. ✨ Sometimes the best way to disciple students is not to tell them what to think — but to let them hear someone else's story and wrestle with it thoughtfully. _________________________________________________________________________________

ONF parts ways with their agency but keeps their name, a hopeful template for groups who want autonomy without losing identity. We examine a label's public warning against malicious posts and why legal action matters when harassment escalates from critique to threats. The conversation tackles parasocial lines, airport etiquette, and the way clipped videos distort context.

    In a world that constantly pressures men to outsource responsibility, comfort has become a substitute for competence and dependence is sold as safety. But sovereignty isn't something given to you by institutions, culture, or circumstance. It's secured through discipline, ownership, and a commitment to lead yourself first. In this episode, we're talking about what it really means to secure your sovereignty—mentally, physically, financially, and morally—so no one else gets to dictate the terms of your life. My guest today, Ian Wendt, joins me for a powerful conversation on reclaiming authority over your decisions, your time, and your future. We dig into the hidden trade-offs men make when they surrender control, the systems that quietly erode independence, and the practical steps required to stand firm as a self-governed man in an increasingly unstable world. This isn't about rebellion, it's about responsibility. If you're serious about protecting what you've built and leading with clarity and conviction, this is a conversation you need to hear.

    Zach begins a three-part series with Brian and Kristen, longtime MTR listeners who volunteered to work through their marriage challenges in real time. Brian and Kristen have been together for more than two decades and credit Marriage Therapy Radio as a resource that helped them find language for patterns they felt—but couldn't name. They describe how listening separately (not together) gave them neutral ground to reflect, build vocabulary, and bring conversations back into their marriage without escalating conflict. The focus of this first session is a familiar cycle: Brian's defensiveness, Kristen's experience of being misunderstood, and the growing frustration around repair always landing on one partner. Zach helps them slow the pattern down, name the dynamics at play, and examine how early family modeling, parenting pressure, and long-term habits have shaped their responses to conflict. Rather than trying to “fix” the marriage, this episode centers on clarity: understanding what actually happens when things go off the rails, differentiating between feeling attacked and being attacked, and identifying where each partner has agency. Zach reframes responsibility not as blame, but as freedom—emphasizing that each partner can choose how they show up regardless of the other's behavior. The episode closes with a concrete assignment: mapping their recurring argument step-by-step so they can externalize the pattern and begin changing it together in the next session. Key Takeaways Long marriages still require new skills as life circumstances change Defensiveness often comes from perceived threat, not actual attack Feeling misunderstood can be as painful as being criticized Responsibility is most powerful when it's chosen, not demanded Repair patterns can unintentionally create resentment Taking breaks during conflict can prevent escalation and shutdown Naming the pattern creates options for change Playfulness and lightness are essential for long-term connection Why This Episode Matters This episode offers a rare, transparent look at the beginning of relational work—not the polished outcome. Brian and Kristen model what it looks like to be curious, honest, and willing to be seen while still feeling stuck. For listeners, this is an invitation to recognize familiar patterns in their own relationships and to remember: insight is the first step, not the finish line. Learn more about your ad choices.

They explore a fascinating discovery: Silkworth published his "allergy theory" in a 1937 medical journal—two years before the Big Book—challenging the common AA legend about why he initially hesitated to put his name in print.The hosts discuss why the Doctor's Opinion matters less for its 1939 medical accuracy and more for what it tells newly sober people: you have a condition, not a character flaw. Matt and Steve get real about the difference between the physical reality of addiction (not your fault) and the actions taken while drinking (your responsibility to address).Steve shares his own parallel journey with weight management and GLP-1 drugs, drawing powerful connections between different types of medical conditions that were once viewed as moral failings. The conversation unpacks why self-knowledge alone isn't enough to stay sober, the role of dopamine in addiction, and why removing shame is the first barrier that needs to fall.Whether you're brand new to sobriety or years into recovery, this episode offers a compassionate, science-informed perspective on what's really happening in your brain and body—and why that understanding is the foundation for everything that follows.Links to the two articles Silkworth wrote in 1937:Alcoholism as a Manifestation of AllergyReclamation of the AlcoholicSupport the show

    What happens when danger comes from where you least expect it? Bart Womack dedicated nearly three decades of his life to serving the United States Army, rising to the highest enlisted ranks and leading soldiers in combat, training, and some of the most sacred roles in military service. But one moment forever changed his understanding of trust, leadership, and survival when he became a firsthand survivor of a deadly insider attack carried out by a fellow American soldier. This episode explores the psychological impact of betrayal, the long road to healing after trauma, and how Bart transformed one of the darkest moments of his life into a mission focused on prevention, awareness, and leadership. His story is not just about military service — it's about resilience, responsibility, and choosing purpose after devastation. Guest Bio Command Sergeant Major (Ret.) Bart E. Womack served over 29 years in the United States Army, holding elite roles including Drill Sergeant, Ranger Instructor, and Sergeant of the Guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. A two-time combat veteran, Bart retired after serving as both Commandant of the 101st Airborne Division Noncommissioned Officers Academy and Command Sergeant Major of the 101st Airborne Division. Following his military career, Bart transitioned into film, consulting, and veteran advocacy, working in Hollywood as a military technical advisor and supporting veterans through education and mentorship. He is the author of Embedded Enemy, which recounts his survival of a deadly insider attack, and he now serves as a speaker and security consultant focused on mitigating insider threats and active shooter incidents.

    What does feminine responsibility actually mean? Not as a mindset, aesthetic, or online trope, but as a biological and embodied reality?In this powerful returning conversation, Johanna is joined once again by mentor and teacher Martine De Luna, who brings over 14 years of experience mentoring women into a grounded, nuanced discussion on feminine biology, safety, stewardship, and mature womanhood.Together, they explore what it means to live femininity beyond performance, reclaiming responsibility not as self-blame or emotional bypassing, but as adult stewardship of the female body, nervous system, and relational world.What feminine biology actually refers to, beyond personality, roles, or aestheticsWhy safety is the primal foundation of feminine embodimentThe biological meaning of feminine authority and the “alpha female” in natureFeminine responsibility as stewardship, not control or self-sacrificeWhy offense is not an emotion, but an interpretive reactionHow unprocessed wounds distort perception in relationshipsFeminine maturity vs. performative femininity (on both sides of the spectrum)Nervous system regulation, polarity, and relational clarityWhy femininity is not incompetence, passivity, or collapseHonoring female desire, intelligence, and competence without rejecting biologyThis episode is an invitation to stop outsourcing regulation, stop fighting reality, and step into the elegant power of embodied feminine responsibility — rooted in truth, biology, and lived experience.If you've ever felt caught between hyper-independence and performative softness, this conversation offers a grounded third path: clear, embodied womanhood.Martine De Luna is a mentor and teacher who has been guiding women for over a decade. Her work integrates feminine biology, emotional ecology, relational responsibility, and grounded spiritual maturity. Martine is known for her clarity, depth, and refusal to dilute feminine truth into trends or tropes.Martine's EDENIC WOMAN membershipMartine's upcoming program: MATRONAMartine's IGMY FREE GIFTS

    Family estrangement is becoming increasingly common in the United States, with nearly one in four Americans now estranged from at least one close family member. In this episode of the Feel Free Again Podcast, I sit down with grief recovery specialist Victoria to have a deeply honest, nuanced conversation about why family estrangement happens, when it may be necessary, and when it may actually be causing more harm than healing. We talk about unresolved grief, emotional pain, mismatched values, expectations, boundaries, forgiveness, and the cultural shifts that have changed how families relate to one another. I share what I've seen after working with hundreds of people in grief recovery — adult children, parents, siblings — all heartbroken, often good people on both sides of the estrangement. We explore how unfinished emotional business, misunderstood boundaries, and unspoken expectations can quietly dismantle relationships, sometimes without either side fully understanding why. This conversation is not about shaming anyone for choosing distance. It's about clarity, emotional responsibility, and reclaiming your agency. Grief recovery offers tools to help you assess whether estrangement is protecting you — or whether unresolved pain is driving decisions that don't align with who you truly are. If you're navigating family conflict, estrangement, forgiveness, or emotional healing, this episode will challenge you to slow down, reflect, and consider a different path forward. ⏱️ Chapters: 00:00 — Why Family Estrangement Is Rising 05:12 — Cultural Shifts and the Breakdown of Family Systems 09:47 — Expectations, Boundaries, and Planned Disappointments 14:01 — The Danger of Acting on Incomplete Emotional Pain 18:48 — Taking 1% Responsibility and Reclaiming Power 23:32 — Why Forgiveness Isn't Weakness 28:23 — When Boundaries Become Emotional Walls 33:56 — The Grief of Parents Estranged From Adult Children 39:46 — Love, Acceptance, and Letting Others Choose 45:12 — How Grief Recovery Helps Heal or Clarify Estrangement 47:12 — Detoxing From Collective Drama Before Family Gatherings 50:47 — Teaching Kids Responsibility for Their Own Feelings 53:26 — Grieving the Child Who Is Growing Up 1:00:55 — How to Know If Estrangement Was the Right Choice Connect with Victoria: Website: https://theunleashedheart.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/victoriavolk/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/theunleashedheartllc/ GRM Website: https://www.griefrecoverymethod.com/grms/victoria-volk About the Host:  Cole James, President of the Grief Recovery Institute, shares about the Power of Grief Recovery! Cole is dedicating his life to help people with grief. Now, grief is much more than just losing someone. Did you know that? You've probably heard of the Five Stages of Grief, right? Well, this goes much deeper than you think. Let me explain. Everyone has some type of grief in their lives, some haven't yet, but it's part of life. We can't escape it, BUT we can work through it. And you don't have to do it alone. Let's talk about it. We have trained Grief Recovery Method Specialists, who help heartbroken people, in Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia, the Middle East, Central America, South America, and North America.

    Guest: Alex Shulman-Peleg, Global CISO at Kraken  Topics: You mentioned that centralized security can't work anymore. Can you elaborate on the key changes—driven by cloud, SaaS, and AI—that have made this traditional model unsustainable for a modern organization? Why do some persist at centralized, top down approach to security, despite that? What do you mean by "Freedom, Responsibility and distributed security"?  Can you explain the difference between "centralized security" and what you define as "security with distributed ownership"?  Is this the same "federated"? In our conversation you mentioned "cloud and AI- native", what do you mean by this (especially "AI-native") and how is this changing your approach to security?  You introduce the concept of "Security as quality" suggesting that a security-unaware developer is essentially a bad software developer. How do you shift the culture and internal metrics to make security an inherent quality standard, rather than a separate, compliance-driven checklist? You likened the central security team's new role to a "911 emergency service." Beyond incident response, what stays central no matter what, and how does the central team successfully influence the security posture of the entire organization without being directly responsible for the day-to-day work.

    Had an AHA or Insight? Share it:Work Addiction Looks Like Success—Until It Costs You Who You AreWork addiction doesn't arrive as a crisis.It builds through competence, trust, and responsibility.It receives praise. You are rewarded for it. You deliver more.You take on more.More people rely on you.Over time, the work expands to fill more of your life. The trade happens in small increments. Stepping away starts to feel unavailable, not because something is wrong, but because too much depends on you. Gradually, who you are becomes defined by who you are at work. And your personal life is in the way of you working more. In this episode of The Business Growth Architect Show: Founders of the Future, Beate Chelette speaks with Traci DeForge about work addiction as a leadership pattern that develops in plain sight and how to break that cycle.By 30, Traci was running a rapidly expanding radio operation in a male-dominated industry. She was effective, visible, and carrying increasing responsibility. She was also questioned about how she got there—who she slept with, or whether her father owned the station—pressure that shaped how much she carried and how difficult it became to step back.Nothing looked broken.Until it was.This conversation stays centered on founder awareness.How responsibility accumulates.How separation erodes.How optionality disappears without announcement.How identity becomes inseparable from performance.This episode is about what happens when you are the victim of your own success because it removes your ability to step away from it.Today, Traci DeForge helps leaders find and trust their voice through podcasting. Drawing on decades in high-pressure media and leadership roles, she supports founders and executives in translating lived experience into meaningful conversations that reflect both their work and who they are. Follow Traci and learn more about her work:Website: https://produceyourpodcast.comLinkedIn: Traci DeForge #Founders #Leadership #WorkAddiction #Responsibility #FounderAwareness #BuildToLast #HumanCenteredLeadershipOther Resources Mentioned:Instagram | Facebook |  YouTube_____________________We appreciate you, thank you for listening.

In this episode, Zvi Hirschfield and Rabbi Dr. Meesh Hammer-Kossoy explore Parshat Mishpatim as the Torah's first sustained encounter with law—and what it reveals about human power and moral responsibility. They examine why revelation leads directly into detailed civil laws, how Torah assumes human failure, and why justice requires limits on authority, wealth, and even righteous intention. The conversation argues that holiness is built not through ideals alone, but through careful accountability in everyday human relationships.

He emphasizes that willpower is overrated and that true freedom is built before temptation arises. Sathiya discusses how pornography was merely a symptom of deeper issues, highlighting the importance of addressing root causes rather than just the behavior itself. He also stresses that spiritual disciplines alone are not sufficient for recovery; they must be complemented by practical systems and skills.

    Stefan Molyneux tackles moral dilemmas through the lens of Universally Preferable Behavior. He delves into love and moral bonds, separating the care for babies from romantic attachments, and stresses that truth should guide moral duties rather than blind loyalty—particularly in cases of family abuse. He touches on issues like shared parenting and favoritism toward relatives, pushing for decisions based on ability instead of connections. Molyneux also looks at how stories of victimhood can undermine one's sense of control and underscores free will as a core part of ethical thinking. He wraps up by considering the duty to seek virtue, noting how choices today shape what comes next for others.GET FREEDOMAIN MERCH! https://shop.freedomain.com/SUBSCRIBE TO ME ON X! https://x.com/StefanMolyneuxFollow me on Youtube! https://www.youtube.com/@freedomain1GET MY NEW BOOK 'PEACEFUL PARENTING', THE INTERACTIVE PEACEFUL PARENTING AI, AND THE FULL AUDIOBOOK!https://peacefulparenting.com/Join the PREMIUM philosophy community on the web for free!Subscribers get 12 HOURS on the "Truth About the French Revolution," multiple interactive multi-lingual philosophy AIs trained on thousands of hours of my material - as well as AIs for Real-Time Relationships, Bitcoin, Peaceful Parenting, and Call-In Shows!You also receive private livestreams, HUNDREDS of exclusive premium shows, early release podcasts, the 22 Part History of Philosophers series and much more!See you soon!https://freedomain.locals.com/support/promo/UPB2025

    In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I'm joined by Josh Haas, co-founder and co-CEO of Bubble, to unpack why the next phase of software creation is already taking shape. We talk about how the early excitement around AI-powered code generation delivered fast demos and instant gratification, but often fell apart when teams tried to turn those experiments into durable products that could grow with a business. Josh takes us back to Bubble's origins in 2012, long before AI hype cycles and trend-driven development. At the time, the idea was simple but ambitious: give more people the ability to build genuine software without spending months learning traditional programming. That early focus on visual development now feels timely again, especially as builders wrestle with the limits of black-box AI tools that hide logic until something breaks. We spend time on where vibe coding struggles in practice. Josh explains why speed alone is never enough once customers, payments, and sensitive data are involved. As he explains, most product requirements only surface after users arrive, and those edge cases are exactly where opaque AI-generated code can become risky. If you cannot see how your system works, you cannot truly own it, secure it, or fix it when something goes wrong. The conversation also digs into Bubble's hybrid approach, blending AI agents with visual development. Rather than asking builders to trust an AI, Bubble's model unquestioningly emphasizes clarity, auditability, and shared responsibility between humans and machines. Josh explains how visual logic makes software behavior explicit, helping teams understand rules, permissions, and workflows before they cause real-world problems.  I learn how this mindset has helped Bubble-powered apps process over $1.1 billion in payments every year, a level of scale that leaves no room for guesswork. We also explore Bubble AI Agent, where conversational AI meets visual editing, and why transparency and control matter more than flashy demos. From governance and rollback logs to builder accountability, this episode looks at what it actually takes to build software that survives beyond the first launch. If you are building with AI or thinking about how software development is changing, this episode offers a grounded perspective on what comes after the hype fades. As AI tools become more powerful, the real question is whether they help you understand your product better over time, or slowly disconnect you from it. Which path should builders choose right now?
