Podcasts about Schuster

Are you truly going to end up alone or is fear making you believe a story that isn't true? We're back for Season 23 to unpack one of the biggest anxieties in dating: the fear that love might never happen. We discuss why feeling “behind” is often more about perception than reality, the biggest indicator that shows someone is not ready and the signs that you're actually on the right path toward finding love. But most importantly if you are on this journey, we're here to give you hope it's absolutely still possible – no matter your age, relationship experience, etc. Enjoy!----Take our Dating Archetypes quiz: https://howtobedateable.com/Read our book: How To Be Dateable: The Essential Guide To Finding Your Person and Falling in Love: https://howtobedateable.com/Try the Dateable AI Dating Coach: Get personalized advice trained on our years of podcast episodes, courses and frameworks: https://studio.com/dateableFollow us @dateablepodcast, @juliekrafchick and @nonplatonic.

Episode Description:Your lab work is not your health. Your biography is. Dr. Lucy McBride is a Harvard-trained internal medicine physician with 25 years of clinical practice and the author of Beyond the Prescription, published with Simon and Schuster in August 2026 with a foreword by Mary Claire Haver. She practices medicine the way almost no one does anymore: by treating the whole person, not the panel. This conversation moves through childhood trauma and metabolic disease, weight loss and GLP-1s, SSRIs and the one thing no pill will ever fix. It is one of the most honest conversations about what health actually is that Heal Thy Self has ever had. Dr. Lucy McBride's health takes: Take 1: "The lab work you get done with your doctor rarely shows the most interesting aspects of your health" Dr. McBride makes the case that biographic data is clinical data. Growing up in poverty, in a chaotic household, with an alcoholic parent — none of that appears on a blood panel, and all of it directly shapes how a patient thinks, eats, drinks, relates, and heals. Take 2: "The body is the scorekeeper" Chronic nervous system dysregulation does not stay in the nervous system. Dr. McBride explains how unprocessed emotional stress shows up as high blood sugar, high blood pressure, and autoimmunity, and why prescribing a pill without asking the deeper question is solving the wrong problem entirely. Take 3: "Sometimes you don't need a GLP-1. Sometimes you just need to eat lunch" One of the most counterintuitive takes of the episode. Dr. McBride explains why chronic low-grade restriction sends the metabolism into survival mode, why stubborn weight that will not move is sometimes the body's response to not being fed enough, and why the first question to ask is about your relationship with food — not your caloric intake. Take 4: "Sometimes you don't need Prozac. You need a divorce" Dr. McBride closes with her most powerful take. SSRIs are not the problem — the system that prescribes them in five-minute appointments is. She makes the case that no amount of pharmacology can resolve the social and emotional toll of living in chronic fear or unhappiness, and that agency is the medicine no pill can replicate. In this episode, you'll discover:  • Why abnormal metabolic markers are often downstream symptoms of chronic nervous system dysregulation, and why understanding a patient's emotional and social context changes the entire treatment picture  • Why the metabolism responds to restriction the same way it responds to famine, what that means for stubborn weight that will not move, and why your relationship with food is sometimes the most complicated relationship you have  • Why SSRIs are overprescribed not because they are bad but because the system does not have time to ask better questions, and what the actual work of mental health requires that no supplement or medication can substitute for Health is not about having all the answers. It is about asking better questions.

CAA literary agent Rachel Mann on what makes her say yes to a manuscript, how to navigate the submissions process without losing control of your career, and why cutting is the work that makes prose land. You'll learn Why the recognition an agent needs is physical rather than analytical. What to do when you're not sure your manuscript is ready to send out. How to buy more time after a full manuscript request without killing the momentum. Why telling other agents about your requests works in your favour, even if it feels grubby. The realistic rhythm for chasing an agent who has gone quiet. Whether refusing to use social media can cost a writer representation. A question worth answering before you sign with anyone, and why the answer shapes the edit. The edit most manuscripts need before submission, and why it rarely means adding. How poetry's distillation applies to prose, whatever you write. What still gives an agent hope in a market where people are reading less.

We often judge how "good" we are at relationships based on our dating and relationship history, but what if it's the least complete picture? In this episode, Julie explores why romantic relationships often become intertwined with our identity, causing breakups, rejection, or being single to feel like proof that we're "bad at relationships." She helps you look deeper at your connection portfolio and the other evidence of your capacity for healthy relationships. If dating has made you question your worth, this episode will help you separate your romantic outcomes from your ability to create deep, lasting connection.

Everybody seems to be telling entrepreneurs to write a book.Write it in a weekend. Use AI. Upload it to Amazon. Become a bestselling author. Watch the clients roll in.Except…that's not quite how it works.This week on Casa De Confidence, Julie sits down with publishing expert Ally Machate, founder of The Writer's Ally, to pull back the curtain on what it actually takes to write and publish a book that supports your business, serves your reader, and creates lasting impact.With experience that includes working at Simon & Schuster and helping authors navigate the publishing process, Ally challenges one of the biggest assumptions in entrepreneurship: just because you can write a book doesn't necessarily mean you should—or that the book you're planning is the right one.Ally explains why the first question shouldn't be “What should I write?” but rather “What do I want this book to do?”Do you want it to attract clients? Generate speaking opportunities? Grow your email list? Establish thought leadership? Change the way people think about an issue?That answer changes everything.Julie also gets personal about her own publishing experience, including what she would do differently, the emotional reality of receiving developmental edits, and why publishing her book ultimately opened doors far beyond book sales.In This EpisodeWhat You'll HearWhy not every entrepreneur needs to write a bookThe difference between publishing a book and publishing a book people actually want to readWhy identifying your reader comes before writingHow a book can support your larger business strategyWhy your book is a product—not your babyWhat developmental editing actually doesWhy copyediting alone isn't enoughWhere AI can help authors—and where it still falls shortHow to create a transformational journey for your readerThe “macrocosm and microcosm” approach to structuring nonfictionTraditional publishing vs. hybrid publishing vs. DIY self-publishingWhat Ally calls supported indie publishingWhy distribution, ISBNs, Amazon KDP, and IngramSpark matterWhy giving books away can sometimes be smarter than selling themHow books create opportunities for coaching, consulting, speaking, and visibilityWhy becoming a bestseller isn't the only—or even necessarily the best—definition of publishing successOne of Ally's most important reminders?“If you're talking to everyone, you're connecting with no one.”Before investing months—or years—writing your book, get clear about the person you're writing for and what you want the book to accomplish.Because the goal isn't merely to become a published author.It's to write the right book.

Pat compares reckless AI development to ignoring his father's warnings about unprotected sex: powerful men believe disaster will never happen to them.

What happens when the tools meant to help us heal start getting in the way of how we connect? We're exploring the rise of therapy culture and how “therapy speak” is changing the way we approach dating, conflict, and relationships. We discuss why having the right words doesn't always mean we're doing the deeper work, how psychological labels can sometimes become a way to avoid accountability, and why not every uncomfortable moment is a sign of a toxic dynamic. We also unpack how to balance self-awareness with openness, curiosity, and the ability to navigate the imperfect moments that make relationships real.

Matthew traces the concept of wetiko — a Cree figure for a cannibal spirit whose hunger grows with what it consumes — from its original anticolonial and anti-imperialist meaning in Jack Forbes's 1992 book Columbus and Other Cannibals, through Derrick Jensen's anti-civilization lense, Ladha and Kirk's 2016 application to neoliberal capitalism, Paul Levy's syncretic New Age elaboration, and finally to Bernhard Guenther and Laura Matsue's QAnon-adjacent version.  Wetiko's metaphysical framing, inherited from Forbes's explicit rejection of Marxist materialism, left the concept open to spiritual recuperation by the right. He proposes a different application: reading wetiko through David Harvey's "capital surplus absorption problem," compound growth's insatiable hunger for profitable outlets.

Does going through hard times together make a relationship stronger—or is that just the story we've been told? In this episode, Yue explores whether deep connection is built through shared struggle or if love can grow just as profoundly without adversity. She reflects on how survival, sacrifice, and teamwork can forge incredible closeness, but can also create resentment, distance, and even break people apart. Through examples like illness, career setbacks, and major life transitions, she unpacks when supporting a partner through hardship strengthens a relationship, and when it's okay to recognize that love alone isn't enough. If you've ever wondered whether lasting intimacy requires surviving difficult seasons together, this episode will challenge the way you think about what truly builds a deep and enduring partnership.

In a shocking turn of events, a prestigious professor's life came crashing down, leaving behind a trail of deceit and controversy. This episode delves into the story of Jason R. Day, a 41-year-old black professor at Cambridge University, who was accused of plagiarizing his academic work and lying about his achievements. His memoir, set to be published by Simon and Schuster, was riddled with outlandish claims that raised eyebrows and sparked a heated debate about the dangers of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) policies. The speaker discusses how DEI policies can lead to the dilution of exceptionalism and the promotion of individuals who may not be qualified for certain positions. They argue that this approach can be detrimental to individuals who are truly talented and deserving of recognition. The episode also touches on the role of institutions like Cambridge University and publishers like Simon and Schuster in perpetuating this culture of deceit. The speaker highlights the case of Jason R. Day, who was given a professorship despite his questionable credentials and a memoir that was later found to be riddled with lies. They argue that this is a prime example of how DEI policies can lead to the promotion of individuals who are not truly qualified for their positions. The episode also explores the consequences of this approach, including the devastating impact on individuals like Jason R. Day. Join us as we explore the darker side of DEI policies and the consequences of promoting individuals who may not be qualified for certain positions.

Patrick Bet-David sits down with Joel Webbon, senior pastor of Covenant Bible Church and founder of Right Response Ministries, whose growing influence in the New Christian Right has made him a controversial voice in American Christianity.Webbon lays out his vision for a more explicitly Christian America, arguing that believers should pursue political power and explaining what he would do with it. The conversation challenges his views on race, immigration, Israel, Islam, and marriage, before turning to the deeper divide over liberalism, Protestantism, Catholicism, and the future of the Christian Right.

Jason Arday's rise to a prestigious professorship at Cambridge University unraveled amid allegations of plagiarism and fabricated claims in his memoir. His death raises difficult questions about the institutions that elevated him, Cambridge's commitment to DEI-based hiring, and Simon & Schuster's decision to publish his memoir despite concerns about its accuracy. The scandal exposes the consequences of abandoning academic merit and placing someone in a position he was never qualified to hold.

Is AI making dating easier or disconnecting us even further? We're unpacking how artificial intelligence is reshaping modern dating, from AI-generated profiles and photos to matchmaking tools and dating coaches. We discuss the ways AI can help people feel more confident and make dating easier, while also exploring the risks around authenticity, emotional outsourcing, and losing the human moments that make connection meaningful. We also dive into the future of AI companions and ask the bigger question: can technology enhance our relationships without replacing the vulnerability and presence they require?

Angelica Cheng's YA rom-com, The Fast Track (Simon & Schuster Books for Young Readers, 2026) brings readers into the world of F1 racing. Justine Kwong has always dreamed of becoming a Formula 1 champion. There's just one problem: no female driver has ever done it before. So when she's offered a coveted chance to race in Formula 3, she leaps at the opportunity. Sure, half the fans think she's just there to fill a diversity quota, and her teammate—the infuriatingly cute Cameron Evans—mistakes her for an intern, but Justine knows her talent will leave them all in the dust.But driving well isn't the only prerequisite to getting noticed, and Justine's forced to fend for herself in a sea of prejudice, paparazzi, and petty backstabbing. There's a lot riding on her ability to navigate the complicated trackside hierarchy—like the open F2 seat that could be her ticket to the big leagues.Except…when Justine and Cameron's bickering gives way to unexpected chemistry, the boy she's falling for may be the one person standing in the way of her dreams—because while they may be teammates, they are also each other's biggest competitor. And with her only shot at glory on the line, this race could break more than just hearts. Learn more about your ad choices.

Imagine a standing coffee date with a friend who talks at you the entire time, looks at their watch, and then says, “Gotta go! This was great!” You'd walk away feeling pretty unsatisfied. The level of intimacy we can reach is limited when conversation remains one-sided. But, too often, we treat our prayer lives the exact same way. We focus on how well we said our prayers instead of stopping to listen to what God wants to say back. This week, Jonna Schuster, author of Hearing God's Voice, joins me to talk about listening prayer. We dive into its theological foundations, the four primary "languages" God uses to communicate, and how learning to hear His voice shifts our daily mission from a heavy burden into a rest-filled collaboration. Episode Timeline: [00:00] – Introduction [01:21] – Jonna's origin story [08:34] – What inspired Hearing God's Voice [14:00] – The scriptural foundation for listening prayer [18:00] – The 4 languages of God: seeing, hearing, feeling, and thinking [24:41] – Receiving God in the mode of the receiver [27:58] – Physical vs. emotional feelings in prayer [35:01] – Asking God for practical solutions and wisdom [39:33] – Overcoming the biggest obstacles to hearing God [46:56] – How listening prayer complements Catholic devotions [50:50] – Moving from performance anxiety to rest and intimacy [53:02] – What church renewal looks like when prayer becomes the norm [59:01] – Where to begin and how to find Jonna's work Resources Mentioned CatholicRevivalMinistries.com Hearing God's Voice ⭐️ Enjoying the Show?

Setting out the stories of the week ahead… The shocking death of Jason Arday reignites questions about the press's relentless pursuit of the story, Cambridge University and Simon & Schuster's failure to properly look into the academic's life story, and the general public's prurient curiosity.

Have you ever felt like you're "too much" or "too needy" in dating? Bu what if it's simply a sign you're dating the wrong people? In this episode, Julie challenges the belief that you need to be less emotional, less expressive, or less yourself to find love. Instead, she explains why the right relationships make you feel more secure, not more anxious, and how constantly feeling rejected or not enough says more about compatibility than your worth. If you're ready to stop blaming yourself for dating disappointments and start looking for relationships where you can truly flourish, this episode will help you shift your perspective.Enjoy!Take the Dating Archetypes quiz now: https://howtobedateable.com/Read our book: How To Be Dateable: The Essential Guide To Finding Your Person and Falling in Love: https://howtobedateable.com/Try the Dateable AI Dating Coach: Get personalized advice trained on our years of podcast episodes, courses and frameworks: https://studio.com/dateableFollow us @dateablepodcast, @juliekrafchick and @nonplatonic.

Olesya Lyuzna is the author of the Ginny Dugan Mysteries debuting with Glitter in the Dark and the just-released Liars in Paradise (both Simon & Schuster), a queer, female-driven noir series set in the glittering shadows of New York in the Jazz Age. Olesya was Born in Odesa, Ukraine but has spent most of her life in Toronto, where she engages in various creative pursuits, including hosting murder mystery parties and exploring archives for unsolved crimes. Her debut novel, Glitter in the Dark, was recognized in 2020 with a mentorship in the Pitch Wars program, highlighting her talent in the genre. Praise for Olesya Lyuzna's Series Ginny Dugan, her gossip column heroine is pushing hard to do something more meaningful. Witnessing the kidnapping of a famous torch singer at a speakeasy in Harlem, opens the door to becoming a private investigator. https://olesyalyuzna.net/ Ginny sits comfortably among the ranks of classic private eyes, with all the moral ambiguity and world-weariness noir fans could want—plus a welcome dash of queerness, courtesy of a sapphic romance subplot."—Publishers Weekly "This debut turns back the clock with authentic detail and sharply drawn characters and a strong sense of violence and lawlessness."—FirstCLUE "Lyuzna lays on the period detail and springs surprises just where you don't expect them. A colorful period debut that's clearly laying the groundwork for a series."—Kirkus Host Sue Hinkin's Website: https://www.suehinkin.com Music by Peter Tavalin htps://www.petertavalin.com Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/gSmxR95Sb94 Listen on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/episode/20msqQOX5Du4xqzcCnW7rK Listen on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/olesya-lyunza-the-femme-detectives-ep-3/id687959058?i=1000782999557

Artist and Actor Sebastian Tillinger Makes His Publishing Debut with a Raw and Searching Memoir of Life in 1999—Written When He Was 25 In HOW THE FERRIS WHEEL WAS BROKEN: A Love Letter to Los Angeles (August, 2026 | Regalo Press / Distributed by Simon & Schuster | $21.00 | Trade Paperback | ISBN: 9798895656778), author Sebastian Tillinger writes an honest, stream-of-consciousness memoir that details his  struggles to find work as an actor, audition after demoralizing audition, with 57 characters crammed in his head, while walking the tightrope between art and making money, celebrity parents and his own insecurities.            Along with his search for work, purpose, and meaning, Sebastian writes about love in all its messiness. Years after they first met in acting class, he reconnects with Sarah, a "petite stunner" with black hair who grew up in Boulder, Colorado, and was a drummer in an all-girl punk band in the eighties when it mattered. Six years his senior, she is the first woman he had sex with whom he truly loved. He asks Sarah to marry him, mostly to prove he's a man. (“I don't believe in marriage,” he muses. “I don't really know what I'm getting into.”) And he nearly screws up that chance when he gets high in the courthouse while they're waiting to get their marriage license. (Imagine going through the X-ray machine with an eighth of weed and a metal pipe stashed in your pockets… Sebastian did it.)Deeply introspective and wildly entertaining, HOW THE FERRIS WHEEL WAS BROKEN invites us to hop inside 25-year-old Sebastian Tillinger's head and travel back to 1999. I hope after reading the book, you'll agree that Sebastian's trip was never dull. Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/arroe-collins-unplugged-totally-uncut--994165/support.

Can you actually date men when it feels like everyone is telling you not to trust them? We're unpacking how social media, clickbait headlines, and a constant stream of negative dating stories can make distrust feel like the default. We discuss why the loudest relationship narratives often aren't the most common ones, how to separate real red flags from fear-driven assumptions, and why paying attention to patterns of behavior matters more than blanket rules about who can or can't be trusted. We also explore how past experiences shape our expectations, where accountability belongs on both sides of dating, and how to balance healthy skepticism without closing yourself off to genuine connection.

Today we explore wisdom. Not the "don't put tomatoes in a fruit salad" kind. Serious business wisdom.It turns out, the wise tend to converge on understanding the world in a similar way.In the 20th century, philosophical titans saw this convergence. They look back to the original seers of wisdom and see in them parallels that run so deep, that upon deep contemplation of these philosophies, they found a "highest common factor," including among:Epicteus, Marcus Aurelius, and the StoicsPlato, and various Neoplatonists such as PlotinusSpinoza, SchopenhauerPossibly Hegel, Wittgenstein, though they are famously difficult to interpretJiddu KrishnamurtiLao Tzu, who authored the Tao Te ChingALso Chuang Tzu and Lieh TzuJewish philosophers such as Philo of AlexandriaSufi mystics of Islam, most famously Jalal al-Din RumiJesus of NazarethSt. PaulMeister Eckhart, the mystic Christian St. Jon of the CrossHinduism:The Sages of the UpanishadsAdi Shankara's The Crest-Jewel of WisdomThe Bhagavad GitaThe BuddhaParticularly Zen masters who followedVarious SutrasThe Bardo ThodolIt is the Perennial Philosophy.

What if the secret to feeling more alive is going back to the good ol' days of having a crush? In this episode, Yue explores why the excitement, curiosity, and unpredictability of an innocent crush can reconnect us to the very things that make us human.

Is the rising cost of everything making you question whether love is still worth pursuing? We're unpacking how inflation, financial stress, and layoffs are impacting modern dating – and why media has declared 'dating has become a "rich person's game.' We discuss how money influences everything from who asks whom out to whether couples should split the bill, why financial anxiety is causing people to delay dating altogether, and how to date in practical ways that eliminate overspending (and why emotional investment matters more than expensive dates anyways!)

While it's true that trust takes time to grow, it absolutely starts revealing itself from the very beginning...if you know what to look out for. In this episode, Julie breaks down the subtle early signs of trustworthiness, how you can tell so much based on how someone responds after moments of disconnection, and ways you can show you're the type of person people trust on early dates too. If you've been relying on chemistry to tell you whether someone is right for you, this episode will help you shift the question from "Do I feel a spark?" to "Is trust being built between us?" because that's the foundation that allows healthy, secure relationships to grow.
