Why should you even do it when we have spreadsheets, deadlines, and goals to hit?The better question is: How can you NOT find the time? It's the 5th pillar of being both an empathetic AND effective leader. And it's not a luxury. It's a vital way to build team culture, engagement, and reduce stress and anxiety when you can.But HOW do you do it?Today, I get the joy of talking about joy with Lisa Even.

Join The Deep Dive (Life-changing teachings for spiritual mastery, guided sound journeys, and access to live community gatherings to share your most authentic self) ⁠https://iamemilioortiz.com/the-deep-d...⁠ In this powerful interview, Emilio Ortiz and Anne Tucker explore the activations and new energy transforming our planet and our lives. Anne channels angelic insights on the earth changes underway, describing how the Earth must crack open to allow light to enter and why humanity's role in witnessing this release is essential. Together they discuss the rise of self-awareness, the experience of loneliness in both humanity and the Earth, and how our thoughts and presence contribute to collective healing. This dialogue also reveals how we are moving beyond the karmic construct into a new earth shaped by unity, self-acceptance, and manifestation through presence. Anne describes the coming flash of light as a turning point that will awaken a higher octave of self, allowing us to co-create reality in alignment with our soul's truth. By embracing transformation, practicing self-love, and allowing what is, we become more dynamically open than ever before. Anne Tucker is healer & channel, supporting awakening souls on their journey through community, spiritual connection, and healing, so they can take advantage of this time of rapid growth and ascension. As a trance channel, Anne enters a meditative state where she connects to the Angelic realm and allows Angels to speak directly through her. She is a channel for Angelic guidance and healing frequencies that will prepare us and help to usher us through the planetary shift in consciousness. ___________________ Read Anne Tucker's book: What's Coming Next: A Channeled Guide to Navigating the Greatest Shift of our Time

In this episode of The Adoption Roadmap Podcast, Rebecca Gruenspan—adoptive parent, consultant, and founder of RG Adoption Consulting—continues her powerful conversation with Jennifer Skiles, an adoptee, author, and survivor whose journey is one of deep faith, forgiveness, and full-circle healing.In Part II, Jennifer shares how she navigated profound grief after losing her birth mother, found peace through forgiveness, and followed a trail of faith and DNA that led her to her biological father—who never knew she existed.

In this powerful episode, we challenge the modern myth that “good parenting” means self-sacrifice at all costs. Instead, we explore what it really takes to show up strong for your family — starting with how you lead yourself. From the societal pressure to “do it all” to the quiet burnout no one talks about, we unpack how ignoring your own needs doesn't make you a better parent — it makes it harder to be the present, grounded leader your kids actually need. We redefine self-care as self-leadership and break down the mindset shifts, personal responsibility, and daily actions that help you parent from a place of strength — not survival. If you've ever felt guilty for wanting more time, more space, or more growth… this conversation will give you permission to take it — and a plan to model a healthier path for your family. Because your kids don't need a perfect parent. They need one who's fully alive.

Investing in health and science research isn't just about curing diseases. It has huge impacts across society, from creating jobs to driving economic growth to boosting national competitiveness. Study shows that every $ invested in the life sciences industry generates $3 in GDP globally, whereas every job created in the life sciences industry generates five in the global economy. Life sciences are one of the most powerful engines of prosperity, yet many governments still underestimate their economic return.In this episode of The Ripple Effect: Investing in Life Sciences, host Dan Riskin speaks with Patrick Horber, President of Novartis International, and David Gluckman, Vice Chairman of Investment Banking and Global Head of Healthcare at Lazard. Together, they break down the outsized economic impact of life science innovation, from trillions in US bioscience output to China's meteoric rise as a global R&D hub. The conversation delves into the ways governments can support innovation with not just money, but through policy and regulation; plus, some of the best ways that countries can help the sector secure investment, talent, and long-term growth.This limited series, produced by GZERO's Blue Circle Studios in partnership with Novartis, examines how life science innovation plays a vital role in fulfilling that commitment. Host: Dan RiskinGuests: Patrick Horber, David Gluckman  Subscribe to the GZERO World with Ian Bremmer Podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your preferred podcast platform, to receive new episodes as soon as they're published.

True impact doesn't always begin in boardrooms or policy meetings. Sometimes it starts in the heart; in recognizing that the struggles we think are ours alone are, in fact, shared by millions. For Rudy Espinoza, that realization transformed his path from a young man chasing financial success to a leader reshaping the systems that hold communities back.In this episode of Amiga, Handle Your Shit, Jackie sits down with Rudy Espinoza, Executive Director of Inclusive Action for the City, to explore how empathy, awareness, and courage can drive real change. Raised by a single mother who left an abusive home to build a better life, Rudy learned early what resilience and service look like.

What happens when a cowboy poet, brand provocateur, and unapologetic truth-teller decides to burn the old playbook and start over in Mexico City? Meet Justin Foster, the co-founder of Massive Change, an advisory firm helping non-profit leaders and entrepreneurs build just, equitable brands.

Investing in health and science research isn't just about curing diseases. It has huge impacts across society, from creating jobs to driving economic growth to boosting national competitiveness. Study shows that every $ invested in the life sciences industry generates $3 in GDP globally, whereas every job created in the life sciences industry generates five in the global economy. Life sciences are one of the most powerful engines of prosperity, yet many governments still underestimate their economic return.In this episode of The Ripple Effect: Investing in Life Sciences, host Dan Riskin speaks with Patrick Horber, President of Novartis International, and David Gluckman, Vice Chairman of Investment Banking and Global Head of Healthcare at Lazard. Together, they break down the outsized economic impact of life science innovation, from trillions in US bioscience output to China's meteoric rise as a global R&D hub. The conversation delves into the ways governments can support innovation with not just money, but through policy and regulation; plus, some of the best ways that countries can help the sector secure investment, talent, and long-term growth.This limited series, produced by GZERO's Blue Circle Studios in partnership with Novartis, examines how life science innovation plays a vital role in fulfilling that commitment. Host: Dan RiskinGuests: Patrick Horber, David Gluckman  Subscribe to the GZERO World with Ian Bremmer Podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your preferred podcast platform, to receive new episodes as soon as they're published.

Today, Les, Jamil, Amy, and Matt unpack the breakthrough in the Israel–Hamas peace process and what it means for U.S. foreign policy under President Trump. With the release of all remaining Israeli hostages, the exchange of Palestinian prisoners, and the implementation of Trump's 20-point plan, the first phase of the agreement is underway—marking a major diplomatic win for the administration.But what comes next? The team explores the broader implications: from renewed U.S. influence in the Middle East to the potential for progress on other global fronts. Could this model be applied to challenges like the war in Ukraine or U.S.–China trade tensions? Is the Trump approach to diplomacy—high stakes, high visibility—emerging as a new blueprint for American power projection?@lestermunson@jamil_n_jaffer@amykmitchell@WMattHaydenLike what we're doing here?

In today's episode, Gina discusses a novel conceptual approach to overcoming anxiety: actually unlearning the anxiety. Rather than just coping, "white knuckling it" or breathing through it, we can unlearn the practices that have lead us to use anxiety as a survival strategy. You can rewire your mind through mindful awareness, interrupting patterns that have led to anxiety in the past, and reframing your inner narrative to include more benevolent and calming content.

Many individuals have been conditioned to believe that anxiety is a lifelong companion—something to manage rather than fully overcome. I explore this notion, suggesting that the path to serenity lies not just in coping, but in unlearning the ingrained behaviors and responses that elevate our anxiety levels.I pose an essential question: what if coping, while useful, perpetuates our anxiety longer than necessary? We often adopt distraction techniques or shallow breathing as quick fixes, but these merely mask the root issues of our anxiety. It's time to recognize that anxiety isn't an inherent part of our identity, but a response to learned experiences. Each of us has the power to unlearn those responses and free ourselves from their persistent grip, allowing space for a calmer existence.Throughout our discussion, I emphasize the power of rewiring our minds. I encourage listeners to recall moments of realization that challenge long-held beliefs—those “aha” moments where understanding sparks change. We unpack how anxiety often stems not just from specific triggers, but from our learned responses to those triggers. This understanding is integral to the unlearning process. Instead of simply coping with anxiety—like wearing earplugs to muffle a smoke alarm—we can address the underlying alarm itself.#AnxietyCoach #UnlearnAnxiety #AnxietyRelief #BeyondCoping #RewireYourBrain #MentalWellness #MindfulLiving #PatternInterrupt #StressManagement #Neuroplasticity #HealAnxiety #GinaRyan #AnxietyCoachesPodcast #CalmResponse #OvercomeFear #EmotionalFreedom #Reframing #TheAnxietyCoachesPodcast #UnlearningInventory #OldProgram #FixTheAlarm #PavingANewRoad #WormholeAnxiety #MeetThemDifferently #MindfulObservation #PauseAndRespond #ReframeTheNarrative #PathBeyondCoping #FreedomFromFear #ChoosePeace #EmotionalResilience #ACPSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Economic Slowdown Evident in Local Consumer Spending and Housing Guest Name: Jim McTague Summary:Despite lower gas prices in Lancaster County, a ripple effect from declining Asian imports is expected. Consumer caution remains high, with "English" shoppers buying essentials and avoiding expensive electronics. Local diners show less vibrancy, suggesting the economy has lost "some spring in its step." High-end real estate sales have also notably "dried up." 1887 CLINTON COUNTY PA

Are your kids' fights setting off your emotions—and the whole house?Most parents try to “fix” kids' behavior to feel better. In this video, Greg & Rachel flip the script: change your emotional state first, and your family dynamics follow. You'll learn how to stop masking (“trying to stay calm”) and start being emotionally authentic—so you model regulation your kids can actually imitate.We unpack practical tools to raise your family's emotional thermostat—even on low-sleep, low-food days: breathing exercises, light movement, gratitude micro-meditations, future journaling, and morning routines that shift your biochemistry fast. You'll discover why sleep and nutrition are foundational, how to process triggers and “memorized emotions,” and how to radiate steadiness kids naturally copy.Big idea: Nothing gets better until you do. When you upgrade your inner state, parenting gets easier, marriage gets warmer, and home feels safe again. This is how you cultivate a family culture of peace, courage, and joy—without pretending or suppressing.Try this today (1-minute reset): Stand tall, inhale 4, hold 4, exhale 6 (x6 rounds). Add one gratitude sentence and smile on purpose. Notice the shift—then go connect.Key Takeaways✅ Nothing gets better until you do — when you raise your state, your family follows.✅ Kids imitate without regulation — they copy your energy, good or bad.✅ Trying to “stay calm” is masking — practice authentic emotional expression.✅ Sleep & food drive mood — protect your physiology to parent better.✅ Quick resets work — breathing, movement, posture, and gratitude change your state fast.✅ Every family has an emotional thermostat — set yours higher on purpose.✅ Mentor, don't micromanage — see misbehavior as a cry for help and coach skills.Memorable Quote:
