Legal Team, we're diving back into one of our most requested and popular topics: Mary Cosby's church. First, we're zooming out to explore the bigger picture of church-owned businesses, from the LDS Church's corporate holdings to Texas megachurches facing major financial lawsuits. Then we're tracing the origins of Mary's church, the empire her grandmother Rosemary built, and how former associate Annie Lois Johnson became entangled in legal drama with Mary and Robert Cosby. From the tangled web of businesses tied to her congregation to decades of lawsuits over forged signatures and missing money, this story has it all. Stay tuned for part two, where we'll break down the current lawsuit between Mary, Robert, and Annie Lois Johnson that's still unfolding. What's on the docket? The rise of church-owned businesses — and how megachurches like LDS, Gateway, and Second Baptist run their for-profit arms Why “church law” has become such a massive (and murky) legal field A refresher on Mary, Robert, and Rosemary Cosby's family and church history The decades-long feud with Annie Lois Johnson, involving forged deeds and disputed ownership Access additional content and our Patreon here: https://zez.am/thebravodocket The Bravo Docket podcast, the statements we make whether in our own media or elsewhere, and any content we post are for entertainment purposes only and do not provide legal advice.

iIn this powerful conversation, Tania sits down with Jonathan Alderson to challenge two of the most persistent myths about autism: the “five-year window” and the “myth of ritual.” Together they unpack the damaging idea that meaningful progress in autism must happen before age five, replacing it with hope, science, and lived experience that affirm growth across the lifespan. They also explore how so-called “rigid rituals” often serve a vital purpose in creating predictability, safety, and regulation.Jonathan shares a compassionate, neurodiversity-affirming lens that helps parents and educators see these behaviors as communication, not pathology. This episode is a reminder that autistic development is not bound by time and that honoring ritual can be an act of respect, not resistance.To find out more about Jonathan's incredible work, click hereThrive Guide: https://www.thriveguide.co/Book: Challenging the Myths of Autism: Click hereInstagram: Click hereWanting more from ICP?

As someone who has officially (gulp) reached mid-life, I can say that despite some of the daunting realizations (I got old??) there are so many wonderful REVElations that occur. One of them being that we have a ton of learned wisdom to share. My guest this week, Katie Rose, wrote her most recent book, Yoni Codes: Reclaim the Power to Heal, by taking inventory of her life and sharing the ways she had found to heal, grow, and persevere. Katie Rose is a yoga teacher, Ayurvedic educator, and author based in Sydney, Australia. Over the past 30 years she has taught and mentored thousands of women, published several books, and built a global community of over 28,000. Her book grew from her own experiences of trauma and healing, and explores how women can access their own codes of power through Ayurveda, ritual, and goddess archetypes. At its heart, it's about how when we heal ourselves, we heal lineages — and how reclaiming the feminine can bring profound change.On this guest episode, Katie shares about how the yoni is both a physical and spiritual gateway and how she sees modern women reclaiming this sacred power in everyday life. She also speaks to how her book blends yoga philosophy, Ayurveda, and personal storytelling and why she wove these threads together as well as the recurring wounds & themes she noticed after working with thousands of women through Bhakti Rose. Together we discuss why women's communities and circles are so powerful for healing, how ancient practices like Ayurveda and yoga support trauma recovery, & the importance of women speaking uncensored truths.Bio:Katie Rose is a yoga teacher, ayurveda guide, doula and author with over 25 years of experience in the world of wellness. She holds accreditation with both Yoga Alliance and Yoga Australia as a registered experienced yoga teacher and teacher trainer with many thousands of teaching hours under her belt.Katie was the manager of the prestigious TriYoga centre in London before moving to Sydney and opening Samadhi Yoga in 2004 followed by Jivamukti Yoga Sydney which at its peak was a four-studio business and is still a thriving community today.Her popular online courses have helped hundreds of women from all over the world in empower themselves.She is the founder and host of the annual Bhakti Women Online Yoga Summit and the author of several internationally available books including ‘Mindful Living' (Rockpool Publishing) and ‘The Yoga of Birth'. Most recently she authored 'Trust Life, Trust Yourself, Find Peace' (published by Affirm Press) and 'Yoni Codes' which was an Amazon Number 1 bestseller.Katie helps women go from feeling stuck and overwhelmed to living a life that is vibrant, creative and abundant. She lives in Sydney, Australia with her five children in a loud and busy household full of family.Book: www.bhaktirose.com.au/yonicodesbookAbout: www.bhaktirose.com.au/about

Roman Emperors were famous for many things, including their often referenced apparent insanity. Part of this was a result of their upbringing and megalomania, and another part was probably metal poisoning. Either way, Caligula's appointing of a horse as consul, Domitian's ascent to godhood and his staged naval battles, Commondus' rigged games, Elagabalus' and Carinus' appointment of prostitutes and dregs to office, and Diocletian's persecution of those the mob detested, are all examples of this insanity. However, how is any of this different than what we see happening today? Biden's appointment of a mentally ill crossdresser to the DOE, the half-nude rainbow parties on the White House lawn, and his crackhead son nearby, are a Democrat example of the insane emperor motif, not to mention the dementia, drugs, cue cards, and military erraticism. Republicans may like to think this doesn't apply to them, but they would be mistaken. Trump's admin is not only plagued with mental decline, drugs, cue cards, and erratic military aggression, but parties with half-naked women, arrogant allegiance to a foreign power, and persecution of citizens in favor of foreign nations and random Christians in Nigeria. Carinus even appointed a forger to sign his papers, not unlike Biden's autopen or Trump's signing of whatever Stephen Miller hands him. This is all on par with countries appointing morbidly obese health ministers. It's all about intimidation, psych-warfare, and hubris, the latter of which the Romans said was the machine of tyranny. If hubris was the machine, then willing citizens to this tyranny are the fuel. But most are willing to wear their underwear on the outisde and change them every thirty minutes for the glorious new leader. *The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

This week's conversation, “Day of the Trick,” invites us to explore how deception, ritual, and resistance intertwine. We'll look at how Trick-or-Treat traditions of Halloween can be contrasted with rituals of generosity and remembrance in Ways of Knowing such as the Day of the Dead. How does manipulation, coercion, and transactional power threaten the work of mutual care? How does resistance reveal the weakness of deception itself? We'll also consider deeper questions: What is the role of sacrifice in reshaping state power? How can Cultural Meaning-Making help us imagine a better society? And how can recovering momentum through studying Movement and Memory help us draw strength from past generations in order to work toward more a better world today?”JOIN KNARRATIVE: https://www.knarrative.com it's the only way to get into #Knubia, where these classes areheld live with a live chat.To shop Go to:TheGlobalMajorityMore from us:Knarrative Twitter: https://twitter.com/knarrative_Knarrative Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/knarrative/In Class with Carr Twitter: https://twitter.com/inclasswithcarrSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
In this episode, Jeff Linville — co-founder of Ritual Studios — returns to Game Dev Advice to talk about the journey behind his band-inspired RPG Fretless: The Wrath of Riffson. From starting a studio with college friends to launching worldwide with French publisher Playdigious, Jeff shares the hard-won lessons of taking the leap into full-time indie development. We go into depth on what it really takes to form a studio, ship a first game, and survive the chaos between passion and business reality. * Founding Ritual Studios after meeting at Columbia College Chicago * How Fretless mixes music, RPG, and deck-building mechanics into one ambitious indie game * The moment they quit their jobs to “really do it” and chase a publishing deal * Lessons learned about funding, taxes, lawyers, and running a real company * Building a standout pitch deck and landing a deal with Playdigious in France * Managing bugs, Steam feedback, and localization into seven languages * Outsourcing art and engineering — and why it's harder than it looks * Choosing FMOD over Wwise for advanced Unity audio integration * Why getting your game playable early beats endless siloed prototyping * How Cardio Ex shaped Jeff's music-driven sound design * Thoughts on AI tools in audio, from noise cleanup to creative limits * Recording real medical equipment sounds * Favorite soundtracks: Hyper Light Drifter and Guild Wars 1 * Current go-to games: Pillars of Eternity and Lord of the Rings Online * Reflections on Mortal Kombat, Midway Games, and how player nostalgia keeps art alive * Advice for anyone dreaming of going indie: “Be ready for it — it's a business.”

Hi friend — welcome back to The Habit Within! I'm Camille Kinzler, and today we're talking about one of my favorite topics: morning rituals — and how to make them simple, soulful, and actually effective.If you've ever fallen into the trap of creating a long, perfect morning routine that left you more stressed than centered, this episode is for you. I've been there too. Over the years, I've stripped away all the “shoulds” and discovered a 10-minute ritual that truly sets the tone for my day — one that supports both my energy and my biology.In this episode, I share:The difference between a routine and a ritual — and why that distinction mattersHow a simple 10-minute practice can reset your circadian rhythm, hormones, and energyWhy sunlight, gratitude, and water are the most powerful (and free) biohacks you can start todayHow to infuse your morning with presence, peace, and a little bit of magicThe science behind why getting early morning light improves sleep, mood, and metabolismHow my genetics revealed I need morning infrared light to help manage stress — and how you can support your own rhythms tooThis is not about “doing more” — it's about doing less with deeper intention. Your morning doesn't have to be complicated to be powerful. Sometimes, a few minutes of sunlight, breath, gratitude, and water can change your entire day.Big Takeaways:Routines create structure; rituals create presence.The most effective wellness practices are often the simplest.Your biology responds to rhythm, light, and intention — not perfection.You don't need an hour to start your day feeling grounded — you just need 10 minutes.I'd love to hear from you: What does your current morning look like? Try this 10-minute ritual and let me know how it feels — tag me on Instagram or send me a message.If you're tired of feeling exhausted, irritable, moody, and just not like yourself, schedule a free 30-minute consultation so I can help you feel like YOU again Fill out this brief form (2 min) to schedule a free 30-minute call.

Procurar emprego nunca foi exatamente prazeroso. Mas já faz alguns anos que o processo todo parece ter se tornado uma tortura com CNPJ. Você se candidata, grava um vídeo pra uma IA, faz até testes não remunerados… e recebe aquele e-mail padrão “infelizmente, você não foi selecionado.” A escritora Sarah Mathews chamou isso de um “ritual de humilhação.” E é difícil discordar. O candidato fala com robôs, os robôs respondem com robôs e ninguém mais parece ouvir pessoas de verdade. E o Brasil não tá muito diferente, não. A plataforma Gupy, por exemplo, virou quase um meme — basta digitar “fui reprovado pela Gupy” pra ver um multidão tentando entender se foi avaliada por um humano… ou por um algoritmo. A gente trocou a entrevista de emprego por um teste de paciência. E essa é a conversa de hoje. Carlos Merigo, Bia Fiorotto e Hiago Vinícius conversam com Ruy Braga, sociólogo especialista em sociologia do trabalho e professor da USP, para tentar entender como a tecnologia transformou a busca por trabalho num campo minado de ansiedade e desumanização. E principalmente: o que esse novo mercado de trabalho diz sobre o valor do trabalho — e da dignidade — em 2025. 10:49 - Pauta01:12:38 - QEAB _ MANO A MANO: O PODCAST DO MANO BROWN AGORA EM LIVRO A Companhia das Letras acaba de lançar o livro “Mano a Mano”, reunindo vinte entrevistas e trechos das quatro primeiras temporadas do podcast de Mano Brown. Além das conversas com nomes como Lula, Marina Silva, Sueli Carneiro, Emicida, Conceição Evaristo e Ronaldo Fenômeno, o livro traz introduções inéditas escritas pelo próprio Brown, fotos das gravações e um prefácio exclusivo. A primeira tiragem vem com um acabamento especial — pintura trilateral nas bordas. É bonito demais. Edição de colecionador pra ler e ter na estante.

What if you stopped doubting your gifts and started letting them lead?If you've ever felt a message come through a dream, sensed a shift when you walked into a room, or just *knew* something you “shouldn't,” your intuition might be stronger than you think.In this episode, Lacy and Jessica sit down with medium and energetic clearer Karen McGowan (aka Lacy's mom!) for a no-gatekeeping conversation on what it really means to live with spiritual gifts. Karen shares it all — from her first spirit visit as a child to the symbols she's learned to trust and the way she clears heavy energy from people and spaces. You'll learn how she protects her energy, stays grounded while tapping into her psychic abilities, and bridges the spiritual with the practical.As the veil thins ahead of Halloween, we explore the magic of Samhain, ancestral connection, and the power of spiritual sovereignty. This episode is your reminder to trust what you feel, set energetic boundaries like a badass, and stop second-guessing your gifts.**Trigger warning: Loss of a child and profound grief from 44:44 through 50:00**Find the complete show notes here -> https://tobemagnetic.com/expanded-podcast Resources: Join us at the How To Manifest Book TourAUSTIN // LA - Early Bird Discount available Join our HTM Book Club!

Happy Halloween Lodgecast listeners! Blink and you missed this exorcism movie starring Al "Dunkaccino" Pacino. It played in theaters only one week, and we missed it there, but we caught it on VOD! Set in 1928 in Iowa, the movie follows Theophilus Riesinger (Al Pacino) and Joseph Steiger (Dan Stevens) as they attempt to exorcise the demon of a young woman named Emma Schmidt (Abigail Cowen). It is directed by David Midell in a truly bizarre manner, with cinematography resembling the American TV series The Office. We'll let you know how weird it gets in this terrifying episode of the Lodgecast!
*Note: this is the Free Content version of my interview with Dr. Markus Davidsen. To access the full interview, please consider becoming a Patreon member, or you can purchase this episode for a one time fee. www.patreon.com/RejectedReligion. My guest this month is Dr. Markus Davidsen.Markus Altena Davidsen is university lecturer in the sociology of religion at Leiden University, the Netherlands. His work on fiction-based religion includes his PhD dissertation “The Spiritual Tolkien Milieu” (2014, cum laude), several articles on Tolkien spirituality and Star Wars-based Jediism, and the edited book Narrative and Belief: The Religious Affordance of Supernatural Fiction (Routledge, 2018). His other research interests include method, theory and research history of the study of religion and religion education. Currently, he is developing a new curriculum and didactical approach for the school subject worldview and religion in Dutch secondary education. In this episode, Markus discusses the concept of fiction-based religion- a term he coined to describe spiritual movements rooted in fictional narratives like Star Wars, and The Lord of the Rings. He distinguishes fiction-based religions (FBRs) from traditional religions by highlighting their lack of historical truth claims and their embrace of narrative as a source of spiritual authority.Markus traces the roots of FBRs to earlier movements like Rosicrucianism, noting how mythic storytelling has long served as a vehicle for spiritual exploration. He shares insights from his research into Jediism and Tolkien-inspired spirituality, examining how these communities construct rituals, ethics, and cosmologies from fictional texts.The conversation also explores the motivations behind FBR engagement, from identity formation to aesthetic and existential meaning.Drawing on Tanya Luhrmann's concept of interpretive drift, Markus reflects on how belief can evolve through practice, suggesting that ritual and engagement may precede conviction.Regarding Huizinga's theory of Homo Ludens, Markus highlights the three kinds of human practices – work, play, and ritual, where play and ritual seem on the surface to be similar, but the difference is: with play, one knows they are playing ( “fiction-contract” as taken from Theatre Studies) whereas ritual might look like play, but it is based on assumptions that the entities actually exist (“actuality contract”). This lens helps frame fandom as a potential site of faith, where “belief” can emerge through ritualistic, creative engagement.Finally, the conversation turns to his current project, Nieuwe werelden openen (“Opening New Worlds”), a pedagogical initiative that uses narrative and perspective-based inquiry to help students explore existential and societal questions. He reflects on how his FBR research informs this work, bridging imaginative engagement with educational practice.PROGRAM NOTESMarkus Davidsen - Leiden UniversityMarkus Altena Davidsen publiceert boek voor docenten levensbeschouwing - Universiteit Leiden2014 The Spiritual Tolkien Milieu: A Study of Fiction‐based Religion (full text)Narrative and Belief | The Religious Affordance of Supernatural Fictio [Book]Markus Altena Davidsen - Universiteit Leiden [Articles]Handbook of Hyper-real Religions | Brill Photo Markus Davidsen by Arash NikkahMusic and Editing: Daniel P.

#316: Nia Sioux has been in the public eye since she was 9 years old. Most people first met her on Dance Moms, where she became known for her talent, her grace under pressure — and yes, for often being put at the bottom of the pyramid.Now at 24, Nia is reclaiming her story — on her own terms.In this conversation, we talk about what it's like to be perceived before you even know who you are, and how you begin to unpack that when the whole world thinks they already know your story. Nia opens up about the emotional process of writing her upcoming memoir Bottom of the Pyramid, what it took to revisit her childhood through adult eyes, and how she found closure by using her own voice.This is an honest, layered conversation about resilience, identity, and what it means to own the narrative of your life, especially when that narrative has long been shaped by others.Nia reminds us that reclaiming your narrative isn't just empowering — it's healing.In this episode, we cover:Nia's emotional journey of revisiting her childhood on reality TVWhat it means to be “the underdog” — and how that label lingersHow the title Bottom of the Pyramid became a reclamation, not a resignationLearning how to tell your full story, even when people only want to hear certain partsReleasing the pressure to prove yourself (and who that performance is really for)What she's learned from watching the show as an adult — and what her mom taught her about strengthEpisode Links:Check out Nia's memoir, Bottom of the Pyramid: A Memoir of Persevering, Dancing for Myself, and Starring in My Own Life, available November 4thFollow Nia on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/niasiouxFollow Nia on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@niasiouxGet your She's So Lucky Merch: https://shop.dearmedia.com/collections/shes-so-luckySponsors:Jones Road Beauty: Modern-day makeup that's clean, strategic, and multifunctional for effortless routines.

In our second Samhain Witch Week episode we return to Primrose Hill's cottage. Where the hearth glows golden against the gathering dark and the scent of spice, smoke and apple fills the air. Join us as Primrose prepares for The Witch's New Year— a time of endings, beginnings and sacred remembrance. Together we step into the stillness of the Dumb Supper, a silent meal shared with the spirits of our beloved dead — learning how to host your own and weave this timeless rite of communion into your Samhain celebrations. Alongside the supper we will explore a handful of hearth-born enchantments and recipes for the turning of the year - Hearth Protection Bread — to bless and seal your home for winter. Apple Spirit Blessing — a sweet ancestral charm of love and remembrance. Pumpkin Soup for Prosperity — golden nourishment for abundance and renewal. Ancestral Mulled Wine or Cider — a warming brew for spirit connection. Shadow Jar Spell — to release the old year and transform what lingers in the dark. This is The Enchanted Feast — a night of quiet magic, candlelight, and communion between worlds. So pour yourself something warm, settle by the fire and step with me into the witch's kitchen at Samhain, where love, memory and magic are stirred together in every dish. Blessed Samhain my loves. May your hearth be warm and your spirits near.

Neural Networks and AI have a keen ability to generate the monster of HP Lovecraft, probably because these cosmic horrors are described by inconceivable colors, surreal visages, and non-Euclidean shapes. These are also often our descriptions of the underworld, netherworld, upsidedown, and spirit realm. We reach it in dreams, NDEs, via certain substances, or through other unintentional but natural methods. It appears that technology can allow us to tap into this world, too, implying that it is both a real place and an extension of the mind, perhaps another reality that consciousness can explore - or the backend of a computer program. The geometry and therianthropes of the shaman can be seen abstractly in AI-Lovecraft, which appears etheric, ghost-like, and not well-defined, precisely the descriptions our ancestors gave of the changing seasons - especially Halloween. *The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

David Platt is here today, and I'm SO excited about this conversation. He recently got back from Brazil and shared some incredible stories from his time there, and we talk about the role we play in the Gospel reaching every nation, including unreached people groups. We were never meant to watch the harvest from the sidelines. We were created to experience life by leading others to life. The harvest isn't just a mission—it's an invitation.

Fae, Ghosts, Ancestry & Old Cornish Magic Hello Witches Join me for episode one of Witch Week for Samhain. On this episode I am joined by the wonderful Freyja, The Corn(ish) Witch, for a deeply magical conversation exploring the folklore, spirits, and ancestral traditions of Cornwall — where the veil between worlds seems to shimmer a little closer to the skin. Together we wander through - How Freyja will be celebrating Samhain and honouring her ancestors. Her own ghost and fae encounters, and what they've taught her about the Otherworld. The Cornish fae — from the Bucca to the Piskies — and their role in local lore. The mysteries of Merlin, Tintagel and Cornwall's most powerful magical sites. The Cornish Pellars, traditional cunning folk and healers of the region. How ancestral trauma can echo through our DNA The celebration of Allantide — Cornwall's own festival of apples, ancestors and soul fire. Plus, a few lesser-known herbs to work with this Samhain season — rooted in Cornish tradition and spirit medicine. This episode feels like walking through mist on the moors — old stories rising up from the land, whispering through time. This one's for those who feel the call of the old paths — for witches who remember the song beneath the soil.

Two very different experiences — one rooted in quiet, personal hauntings, the other in a dangerous game gone horribly wrong — combine to create one unforgettable episode of true paranormal stories. The first comes from Jamie in New York, who has always sensed things others miss. In Israel, standing among ancient mountain ruins, Jamie felt a tap on her shoulder though no one was near. Years later she saw a TV investigation filmed at the same ruins — capturing footsteps and voices exactly where she'd been touched. Back home, tragedy struck when Jamie's uncle passed away. Days after his death, she entered his apartment to feed the cats… and saw him sitting calmly at the kitchen table, gazing out the window. He disappeared the moment she blinked, but the unsettling feeling of being watched lingered — in the apartment hallway, even in the empty gym at night where a treadmill mysteriously shut off on its own. The second story shifts from eerie to downright chilling. A caller describes performing what was supposed to be a “safe” Reddit ritual at a friend's sleepover — a hypnotic game meant to reveal something about your life. Instead, her friend entered a vision where an unnaturally tall shadow figure appeared, whispered in her ear, and followed her down a hallway she claimed to see behind closed eyes. The friend awoke gasping for air and was never the same again. #TrueGhostStory #RealHaunting #ShadowFigure #RitualGoneWrong #HauntedRuins #ParanormalExperience #GhostEncounter #UnexplainedEvents #ScaryStoryTime #RealGhostStories Love real ghost stories?
