A conversation with Jay Michaelson, our Teacher of the Month for February, about his path to meditation, navigating multiple identities, and why he calls himself a "cynical, sarcastic bitch." Jay Michaelson is a meditation teacher, journalist, rabbi, and author. In this conversation with executive producer DJ Cashmere, Jay gets candid about his unconventional path into meditation—driven initially by greed for mystical experiences rather than a desire to reduce suffering—and how his practice has evolved over 25 years. We talk about: Why Jay identifies as a "greed type" in Buddhist psychology (and what that means) How to balance worldly activism with contemplative practice without getting "hollowed out" The concept of creating a "permission structure" to live the life you actually want That moment of spaciousness between stimulus and response (and how it saved Jay when he got heckled during LGBTQ activism) Whether meditation can help save humanity—and why Jay is both cynical and hopeful about this How neurotic Jay still is after 25 years of practice (spoiler: he's less reactive, but still neurotic) "Micro-moments" of awareness—five-second practices for people who can't go on long retreats Jay's guided meditations and live sangha sessions are available throughout February in the 10% Happier app. You can also find him at jaymichaelson.substack.com, where he writes Both/And, a newsletter about the intersection of spirituality, meditation, and politics.   Join Dan's online community here Follow Dan on social: Instagram, TikTok Subscribe to our YouTube Channel   To advertise on the show, contact sales@advertisecast.com or visit https://advertising.libsyn.com/10HappierwithDanHarris  

In this episode - Simon Moya Smith, and Julie Francella, talk with John about the resurgence of the American Indian Movement (AIM) in Minneapolis, drawing striking parallels between historical and contemporary struggles faced by Indigenous communities.Simon and Julie emphasized the importance of understanding that the fight for Indigenous rights is not merely a relic of the past, but a living, breathing movement that continues to evolve. They pointed out that the emergence of social media has changed the landscape of activism, allowing Indigenous voices to share their stories and experiences in real-time, bypassing traditional media channels that historically marginalized their narratives.The discussion also delved into the impacts of colonization on Indigenous identity and the ongoing trauma that Indigenous people face. Julie highlighted the psychological effects of racial profiling and the necessity for Indigenous youth to constantly prove their identity to authorities that often fail to recognize their sovereignty.One of the most poignant moments in the episode came when Simon remarked, "For Indigenous people, it has been about protecting our community and life." This statement encapsulates the essence of the American Indian Movement's mission, which has always been about safeguarding not just Indigenous lives, but the entire community.As the conversation unfolded, both Simon and Julie expressed their hope for a future where understanding and respect for Indigenous history and rights are paramount. They called on listeners to recognize that "nobody's illegal on stolen land," challenging the prevailing narratives that often ignore the historical context of Indigenous peoples' presence on their ancestral lands.The episode culminated in a powerful reminder that the fight for justice is ongoing and that each generation has a role to play in advocating for the rights of Indigenous peoples. As Simon aptly put it, "The more things change, the more they stay the same." This sentiment resonates deeply in a world where the struggles of the past continue to echo into the present.For anyone seeking to deepen their understanding of Indigenous issues and the complexities of identity, this episode is a must-listen. Simon and Julie's insights provide a valuable perspective on the importance of community, activism, and the enduring legacy of the American Indian Movement.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Sex is what matters in sports. That's an actual quote, moreover an actual legal argument from yesterday's Supreme Court hearing in the first of two cases involving males pretending to be females and competing as females because the brain of everyone involved in that decision was broken..

After years of believing she had to do everything herself—working 14-hour days, micromanaging every detail, and burning out—she discovered that delegation wasn't a luxury but a requirement for real success. That realization changed the trajectory of her business and her life. Today, Brittany is dedicated to helping female entrepreneurs stop drowning in tasks and start leading like CEOs. Through I Need A VA, she helps business owners scale faster by hiring top-tier virtual assistants, reclaim their time, and eliminate the overload that holds them back. Her no-BS approach teaches women how to delegate with confidence, focus on what matters, and finally break free from the "it's faster if I do it myself" trap. With a world-class team of VAs known for their accuracy, efficiency, and reliability, Brittany has made outsourcing simple, stress-free, and transformative. Her mission is clear: empower entrepreneurs to build their dream teams, grow their businesses without burnout, and stop trying to do it all alone. During the show we discuss: How virtual assistants help entrepreneurs reclaim time, increase revenue, and work fewer hours Which tasks business owners should delegate first to see the fastest ROI How I Need A VA matches businesses with the right VA through recruiting, vetting, and training The impact delegation has on burnout, work-life balance, and founder focus The speed and simplicity of onboarding, plus ongoing VA management and support Why outsourcing is often more cost-effective than hiring in-house staff The long-term transformation entrepreneurs experience by freeing up 10–20 hours per week Resources: https://ineedava.com/  

Marc kicks off Tuesday fired up over Sammy Hagar's St. Louis tour news before diving into a high-stakes Supreme Court case on transgender athletes in women's sports. He hammers the left's lawlessness on ICE and sanctuary cities, while Kim's “Kim on a Whim” takes aim at Planned Parenthood and rallies conservatives behind Missouri's Amendment 3 “fix.” The hour ends with a wild local twist — monkeys and a goat running loose in St. Louis, proving the news cycle really does have everything. #SupremeCourt #WomensSports #ICE #ProLife #Amendment3 #SammyHagar #StLouis #MonkeysOnTheLoose #MarcCoxShow

John talks about the massive protests over the killing of Renee Nicole Good. Bodycam footage of her murder was leaked to right wing media by ICE in an apparent effort to back up their claims she was a violent domestic terrorist. Instead the video shows the last moments of Good's life and her last words to ICE agents “That's fine, dude, we're not mad at you,” as well as the ICE agent calling her a “fucking bitch” after firing the shots that killed her. Then, he interviews Dr. Maya Shankar who is a cognitive scientist and the creator, executive producer, and host of the podcast, "A Slight Change of Plans". They discuss her forthcoming book "The Other Side of Change: Who We Become When Life Makes Other Plans".

Keith's allergies caused such severe swelling that he now resembles Jeffy, while Pat plans to flee the incoming polar vortex — just like Ted Cruz did. A quick reminder: President Biden's recent visit to California wasn't to address the fires but to see family. Back at the White House, Biden struggled during a signing ceremony, forgetting what he was doing and raising questions about why he's signing anything when Trump will likely undo it. Pete Hegseth's confirmation hearing has been a spectacle, with criticism flying from the Left, particularly women. The hearing featured bizarre moments, such as questions about Trump potentially taking Greenland by force, defining “jagoff,” and addressing allegations of sexual misconduct. Senator Markwayne Mullin (R-Okla.) also called out his colleagues for their hypocrisy during the proceedings. Meanwhile, speculation continues over whether there will be a Biden Presidential Library, which many predict will be mocked as an uninspiring destination. Congress is locked in debates about women's health and the definition of a woman, while the dominance of trans women in female sports continues to ignite controversy. Adding to the chaos, AOC delivered a speech on the House floor that many found incoherent. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
