In this special Q&A episode, Laura is tackling a few questions that have been coming up a lot lately around mental health and relationships. She shares some interesting trends showing up in 2026—from people switching to “brick phones” to set better digital boundaries, to the danger of self-diagnosis and conversations around family boundaries. Then she covers some practical questions: How do you know if you might need counseling? How can you suggest therapy to someone you care about without it coming across the wrong way? And what do you do if you're someone who's afraid of making mistakes? If you've ever asked any of these questions - this episode is for you.

For day nine of Seek: 10 Days of Prayer, Chris Kinsley is leading us to pray in light of Psalm 119. Let's seek God together in prayer!

It's a very interesting time for African agriculture and food, the continent is realising it's potential to help feed the world, money is flowing into infrastructure to unlock this, more and more talent is coming into the space and the realisation that agro ecology or regenerative agriculture is no longer a nice niche with big margins but has the potential to become the predominant way of agriculture is performed. After putting over $20 million to work in East Africa, Ivan Mandela, founder of SHONA Group, has learned the hard way: chasing Western style so called unicorns might not be the right approach for a predominantly agricultural society. So he shifted his approach and started investing in real companies, to help create a functioning main street a functional real economy where unicorns will naturally start to occur. We discuss why Ivan ends up mostly backing female entrepreneurs, his tips for young students and his takes on nutrient density and quality.More about this episode.==========================In Investing in Regenerative Agriculture and Food podcast show we talk to the pioneers in the regenerative food and agriculture space to learn more on how to put our money to work to regenerate soil, people, local communities and ecosystems while making an appropriate and fair return.

Women entrepreneurs in finance and technology are being urged to 'back themselves' as applications open for the 2026 She's Next Visa Grant Programme. Empowered by Visa and aimed at closing the entrepreneurship gap in Ireland, She's Next 2026 will provide five women-owned businesses with €90,000 in business funding together with expert coaching, mentorship and additional resources to help their businesses thrive. For the first time, it also brings together some of Ireland's most respected businesswomen – Aimee Connolly (founder and CEO, Sculpted by Aimee), Breege O'Donoghue (former board member, Primark) and Gráinne Mullins (founder, Grá Chocolates) – who will provide mentorship to this year's five winners. Together with a range of Visa business supports, the winners will benefit from the experience and expertise of these exceptional business leaders, who have also been announced as judges for the 2026 She's Next programme. And, despite operating in different sectors and encountering different challenges, all three agreed on three defining factors for success: — Back yourself: Aimee Connolly said that self-belief can be the biggest hurdle to taking the next step in business. "Even the most successful businesspeople can suffer from imposter syndrome, but this is often predicated on feelings, not fact," she said. "Starting a business, dealing with challenges, setting high standards and showing genuine passion for what you are doing is proof of capability. So, recognise your capabilities and back yourself, and you'll have one less negative thing to deal with." — Seek mentorship early, not when you're struggling: Breege O'Donoghue in particular advises female founders to surround themselves with good people to accelerate growth early on, and proactively build networks before major growth periods. "Mentorship is a growth and confidence accelerator, the value of which cannot be underestimated," she said. "Build strong networks – not just within your own industry – and learn from others as you grow. But be generous and empathetic, and be willing to reciprocate by showing support to others too." — Perfection – the enemy of progress: According to Gráinne Mullins, many women wait until they feel 'ready' before pitching or applying for funding. But, says the Galway woman, if you wait until you feel 100% ready, you may never take that next step. "Perfection is the enemy of progress, and rather than wait for everything to be 'perfect', I encourage women entrepreneurs to pursue their goals with vision and focus. Taking the next step, regardless of what stage you are at in your journey, could be the difference between opportunity realised and opportunity missed." Speaking at the launch of the 2026 She's Next Programme, Ines Obtinalla, Ireland Head of Marketing at Visa, said: "While progress has been made, women entrepreneurs in Ireland are still facing barriers to funding and mentorship. Visa backs small businesses with big ambitions, and this programme will deliver the resources and expertise to power our five winners' next steps. "The advice from the mentors is clear: backing yourself isn't just a mindset, it's a catalyst for growth, and that's exactly what the She's Next programme is designed to support. We've already seen the positive impact of previous programmes, where funding and mentorship have empowered women business owners to turn ambition into action. With Visa championing their progress, businesses haven't just grown; many have scaled, innovated and created lasting impact. So, if you're ready to take the next step in your business journey, now is the time to apply." 2026 Visa She's Next – What Winners Receive Four women entrepreneurs will each receive €10,000; one overall winner will receive €50,000 All winners will receive mentoring from three of Ireland's leading businesswomen: Aimee Connolly, Breege O'Donoghue and Gráinne Mullins Individual and group pitch preparation sessions Access to ongoing supports available through Vi...

Eric interviews Andrew Strobel, an R&D lead from Vermeer, during the ConExpo trade show in Las Vegas. The discussion highlights a groundbreaking partnership with Interlune to develop robotic trenching technology designed to excavate lunar soil, known as regolith. By adapting terrestrial engineering for low-gravity environments, the project aims to eventually extract Helium-3 from the moon's surface for energy purposes. The conversation explores technical hurdles such as traction and soil density, while noting how NASA-related expertise influences the company's innovation. This episode illustrates how decades of construction experience on Earth are being utilized to push the boundaries of space exploration. Key Takeaways: Adopt a mindset of constant and never-ending improvement to consistently level up your personal and professional life. Embrace experimentation by testing as many ideas as possible to identify what truly works for your business. Seek out strategic partnerships and collaborations to solve complex problems and access expertise outside your own field. Invest in yourself through dedicated training, coaching, and resources to master essential skills like sales and leadership. Challenge yourself to think beyond current limitations and set ambitious goals that push the boundaries of what you believe is possible.

Welcome to the evolution of Life Changing Moments! In this debut videocast episode, host Dr. Dael Waxman is joined by his colleague and fellow physician coach at MD Coaches, Dr. Murnal Shah, for a foundational conversation about physician coaching. Together, they explore the nuanced landscape of coaching in medicine—why physicians seek it, what holds them back, and how coaching differs from counseling, advising, or simply "getting help." Drawing on decades of combined experience working with physicians at all career stages, Dale and Murnal unpack the myths, misconceptions, and transformative potential of coaching. From the newly minted resident questioning their path to the seasoned leader stepping into a C-suite role, they make a compelling case for investing in oneself—not out of crisis, but out of a commitment to growth. Key Topics Discussed: The wide spectrum of reasons physicians seek coaching: from leadership transitions to burnout and disillusionment. What "remedial coaching" really looks like—and why fear and anger are often at the root of perceived unprofessionalism. The critical distinction between coaching (future-focused, action-oriented) and counseling (past-focused, healing-oriented). Why physicians are conditioned to neglect self-investment and how the "hero mindset" of training creates barriers. The evidence for coaching: improved communication, retention, and reduced burnout. Why high-performing physicians seek coaching—and why being "right" isn't the same as being effective. The power of curiosity over advice-giving: coaching as a thought partnership where the answers reside within the client. Practical encouragement for anyone hesitating: let that hesitation be the driver to learn more.

We're one week through Seek: 10 Days of Prayer, and today Dennis Blythe is leading us to pray in light of Psalm 78. Let's pray and seek God together!

*Listen to the Show notes and podcast transcript with this multi-language player. SUMMARY This episode explores what it truly means to seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness. The discussion centers on surrendering to Christ's authority, aligning with His purposes, and allowing Him to manifest His Kingdom through a yielded people. The family emphasizes that worship is not merely singing, but presenting our lives as living sacrifices. True Kingdom alignment is revealed when believers continue loving, trusting, and walking with God regardless of circumstances. The ultimate question remains: Is God enough? SHOW NOTES Seeking first the Kingdom means living under Christ's authority.Righteousness is alignment with His will, not self-effort.The Kingdom has been present since Christ introduced it and is now being manifested.The Kingdom is revealed through humility and surrendered vessels.We do not bring the Kingdom; we align with His purposes and allow Him to work.Worship is the purest expression of seeking the Kingdom.Worship is not just singing—it is presenting our bodies as living sacrifices.The greatest worship is loving God regardless of circumstance.True commitment says, “I will walk with God whether I live or die.”Overcoming comes through the blood of the Lamb, our testimony, and loving not our lives unto death.The love of the Lord is unchanging and unfathomable.God completes what He begins.The central question: Is God enough in every situation? KEY QUOTES “If He's King, then He's in authority, and whatever He speaks, that we do.”“We don't bring the Kingdom; we align our spirits with His purposes.”“The greatest worship you and I can give is when, in spite of everything we go through, we say, ‘Yes, I love You.'”“Is God enough for you? Worship Him.”“To love Him is His perfect will.”“There has to be that thing in your spirit that says, ‘I'm going to walk with God regardless if I live or die.'”“The love of the Lord is the key.”“What He has begun, He will complete.” SCRIPTURAL REFERENCES Matthew 6 (33)– Seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness.Matthew 11 (12)– The Kingdom suffers violence, and the violent take it by force.Romans 12 (1)– Present your bodies a living sacrifice, your spiritual service of worship.Revelation 12 (11)– Overcome by the blood of the Lamb, the word of testimony, and loving not our lives unto death.Hebrews 12 (2)– Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith.Psalm 22 (3)– He dwells in the praises of His people.Jeremiah 31 (33)– I will write My law on their hearts.Philippians 1 (6)– He who began a good work in you will complete it. TAKEAWAY Seeking first the Kingdom is not about activity—it is about surrender. When we worship, yield, and love God regardless of circumstances, we align with His purposes and allow His Kingdom to be manifested through us. The question every believer must answer is simple but profound: Is God enough?

Written from the wilderness, Psalm 63 captures David's deep longing for God, where physical hunger and thirst become metaphors for a soul desperate for His presence. Within the Seek series, this psalm reveals how deprivation—whether chosen or imposed—can train our hearts to desire God above comfort, success, or relief.

It's day six of Seek: 10 Days of Prayer. Today Chip Bugnar leads us to pray in light of Psalm 62. Join us in prayer as we seek God together!

Just as every marathon runner sets goals and works to meet them, we must meet our goals to achieve what God has for us. He does not want us to be stuck in the past. Instead, he wants us to forget what is behind, completely heal from it, and move forward so that we can move toward heaven. When we move toward heaven, we help others do the same. As people admire us and watch us straining through the ups and downs of life with joy and contentment, others are drawn to Christ, too. When we run the race that has been marked out for us, we in turn help others run the race as well. This episode is sponsored by Trinity Debt Management.

But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.” - Philippians 3:13-14 After waiting many months for the Lord's direction, I have begun the ordination process with my denomination. Although it is a long, complicated process, I know I am up for the challenge. But first, I wanted to pray and make sure that my decision was not simply my decision, but one that the Lord was calling me to make. After many months of silence, God finally used somebody in my life to confirm what I needed to know. As I've gone through the process, God has recalled many emotional wounds I've needed to heal. Due to past church hurt and bad exchanges with brothers and sisters in Christ, I became nervous about whether I could do the job. I wasn't sure I wanted to go back into a situation that could be toxic or harmful to my mental or emotional state. One day, I was reading the Word and came across the above verses. It was interesting for me to note the phrase, “forgetting what is behind, and straining toward what's ahead.” The word “strain” implies that it's not easy to move. For instance, people with physical injuries who want to run a marathon will find it quite tricky. The pain of that injury will impede them from running the race fully with a healthy body. Although we may never completely forget the hurts and difficulties of our past, God wants us to forget what they are and continue toward the goal he has for us. God doesn't want us to ignore the pain. Instead, knowing it's there, we should take steps to care for ourselves and also to achieve the goal he has set for us. With proper rest, nutrition, and healthy water intake, a person who runs a marathon with an injury can do so, albeit slowly. It is the same with us. God wants us to strive toward the goal that he has for us. In these verses, the price is heaven. Through many seasons of life, we may be straining toward heaven. We may be going through challenging health crises, financial woes, church, or relationship struggles. Yet through all of it, God wants us to keep moving forward. Even when we are stuck in those emotional wounds, God wants us to heal so we can move forward and reach the prize. Just as every marathon runner sets goals and works to meet them, we must meet our goals to achieve what God has for us. He does not want us to be stuck in the past. Instead, he wants us to forget what is behind, completely heal from it, and move forward so that we can move toward heaven. When we move toward heaven, we help others do the same. As people admire us and watch us straining through the ups and downs of life with joy and contentment, others are drawn to Christ, too. When we run the race that has been marked out for us, we in turn help others run the race as well. Don't become stuck in the past. Instead, heal from what has ailed you. Seek the help of a professional, get medication, or do whatever you need to take to forget what's behind you completely. Then, when you are ready, move toward heaven, no matter what pace you are at. Strive toward the goal, move toward heaven, and inspire others to reach heaven's goals as well. Father, let us be people who strain toward the goal. Let us always keep our eyes on the prize: heaven. Let us remember, then, that the ultimate prize is being solidified in our identity with you and in our intimate relationship with you. Help us get the resources and time we need to completely heal from the past so we may move forward toward the goal you have set for us. Amen. Intersecting Faith & Life: In what way are you stuck in the past? In what ways can you heal from the past so that you can move forward to your future goals?

Here Comes Mr. Jordan is Movie #2 in this 11th Annual Oscar Month. It's the rare film that won awards for the screenplay AND the story. Alexander Hall does a pretty good job directing his cast through a creative, body-jumping fantasy about the afterlife, angels and soul reincarnation. This is the first time Robert Montgomery has been featured on Have You Ever Seen...and him playing a goofy palooka was not his usual assignment. He's effective though. Claude Rains gets to play ethereal...which is appropriate for a "seen it all" angel. Evelyn Keyes is Montgomery's love interest and James Gleason is his put-upon boxing manager, whose protege keeps turning up in new bodies. The concept is clever...and it's even a little touching. It's just not very funny. Anyway, launch into this 723rd podcast as I run my mouth about Here Comes. Mr. Jordan. Take a second to subscribe to the channel and never miss one of these Friday episodes.

What happens when you step completely out of your routine - and into the wild?In this episode, I'm back from my bucket-list safari in Africa with three unexpected lessons that HIT HARD. Between hot air balloons drifting with the wind, lions roaring just feet away, and a powerful human connection with someone from a completely different world, this trip became more than an adventure - it became the reset I didn't know I needed.If you're someone who plans everything, optimizes everything, and carries a lot of responsibility (sound familiar?), these insights might stop you in your tracks - in the best way possible.Today I'm talking about:1. What happens when you stop steering your life for a moment.A sunrise hot-air balloon ride over the Maasai Mara delivered a surprising realization: sometimes freedom comes from not controlling everything.2. Why the animals on safari offered a masterclass in presence.Watching wildlife live moment-to-moment revealed how much we overcomplicate life and how powerful it can be to simply be where your feet are.3. The unexpected connection that became the most memorable moment of the trip.A quiet interaction with a Maasai guide named Dominic became a powerful reminder that human connection transcends language, culture, and circumstance.Inspired by the stillness of the safari, I made a commitment to myself:10 minutes a day of mindfulness.Not perfection.Not hour-long meditation sessions.Just ten minutes to reset, breathe, and quiet the noise of a world that often feels overwhelming.And the surprising part?It's becoming the part of the day I look forward to the most.So Thrivesters here's my challenge to you this week (pick one)Let the wind take you somewhere - leave space in your schedule for the unexpected.Be where your feet are - practice presence instead of constant multitasking.Seek out connection - because the most meaningful moments often come from the simplest interactions.Now go out there and thrive like you mean it.Looking for a little more inspiration delivered straight to your in box? Join the Hive! Inside the Thrive Hive, you'll receive:

"I am the true vine," Jesus said. "Abide with me." My friends in recovery really get this concept of abiding - finding home on the way. It's captured in Step 11 : “Seek - through prayer and meditation - to improve your conscious contact with God as you understand God, praying only for knowledge of God's will and the power to carry it out.” Staying connected is how you stay on the wagon. Constant, conscious, mindful contact: If you don't stay with it, you won't stay with it.

In this episode of The Ross Simmonds Show, Ross breaks down five underrated career strategies that quietly separate high performers from everyone else. From investing in yourself without permission to thinking in decades instead of quarters, this is a tactical blueprint for anyone serious about long-term growth. If you're playing the long game in your career, this episode gives you the mindset and structure to win it. Key Takeaways and Insights: 1. Invest in Yourself (Without Waiting for Permission) - Stop waiting for HR or leadership to approve your growth. Identify your skill gaps and proactively close them. Books, courses, and communities offer massive ROI over time. Treat self-education as an investment, not an expense. 2. Take On the Projects No One Else Wants - Volunteer for high-visibility, low-competition initiatives. - Align yourself with projects leadership cares about. - “Messy” projects often create the biggest breakthroughs. - Growth lives where others hesitate. 3. Close Skill Gaps Before They Cost You Opportunities - Be honest about where you're weak (public speaking, strategy, tools, etc.). - Build deliberate practice into your routine. - Don't stay passive while others outpace you. - Small improvements compound into major career leverage. 4. Build a Body of Work Outside Your Job - Your employer doesn't own your expertise. - Publish ideas on LinkedIn, newsletters, GitHub, podcasts, or blogs. - Contribute to communities and become known for value. - Visibility creates opportunity especially in uncertain markets. 5. Find a Mentor Who Tells You the Truth - You don't need a cheerleader, you need critique. - Ask for blunt, honest feedback about your blind spots. - Growth accelerates when your thinking is challenged. - Seek mentors internally, externally, or both. 6. Join Rooms Where Serious People Talk About Real Problems - Surround yourself with ambitious peers. - Learn by observing how others solve complex challenges. - Communities can act as informal coaching ecosystems. - Exposure to higher standards raises your own. 7. Think in Decades, Not Quarters - Define the skills, reputation, and life you want in 10 years. - Reverse-engineer what you need to invest in today. - Systems beat short-term hustle. - Long-term clarity drives better short-term decisions. —

Illinois lawmakers are pushing for more federal support to fight Lyme disease. The House public health committee has adopted a resolution sponsored by State Representative Dan Swanson, which calls for increased funding to find a cure. Swanson highlighted a rise in Lyme cases across the state, noting that available data may underestimate the problem, as major employers' insurance plans aren't included in official counts. The measure also urges the State Board of Education to launch tick-bite prevention lessons for schoolchildren, who are at particular risk. May 2026 would be designated as Lyme Disease Awareness Month under the resolution, now headed to the full House.

The chaos of the information war that surrounds a kinetic war functions to blind you and force you into submission of the narratives you are fed to make things make sense. Stepping back from the spin and deception, we are able to ask common sense questions and transform their psyop into a mind map of what they are trying to hide. The invasion of Iran is a story being told with at a 3rd grade level narrative, expecting you to agree and obey. Don't be a slave to their words. Ask what you are being told not to.

America Out Loud PULSE with Malcolm Out Loud and Nicolas Hulscher – Excess mortality is declining, but people are still dying. Would you say that the excess deaths are declining because we are getting further away from the jabs, and are the people dying because they took boosters? Have there been any studies looking at infants and the effects of a recent covid infection and subsequent immunizations?

Have you noticed that alcohol can make you feel relaxed in the moment but more anxious, restless, or on edge the next day? Or maybe you haven't made that connection yet, but you say you aren't drinking in the morning and then by the evening, your mind is telling you you need something to take the edge off. In this episode, I break down the powerful loop that alcohol creates in the brain. At first drinking can feel fun, help you relax or connect at parties or outings. But over time, alcohol begins changing the chemistry of your nervous system in ways most people never realize. Alcohol can actually train your brain to create the very stress it promises to fix. I explain how alcohol affects your nervous system, what rebound stress chemistry is, and why many people start drinking for one reason but eventually find themselves drinking for completely different reasons. You'll also learn why the daily cycle of morning promises and evening negotiation happens and how understanding the brain science behind alcohol can remove shame and confusion around your drinking habits. If you've ever found yourself thinking, “Why do I still want a drink when I know it doesn't really make me feel better?” this episode will help you understand what's actually happening. In this episode, you'll learn: • Why alcohol initially feels relaxing but can increase anxiety later • How rebound stress chemistry affects your nervous system • Why drinking shifts from pleasure to relief over time • The brain loop that keeps many people stuck in drinking habits • Why you may wake up determined not to drink and still feel the urge later • How your nervous system recalibrates when alcohol is removed Understanding this alcohol relief loop can change the way you think about drinking and help you stop blaming yourself for something that is actually a predictable biological response. This episode is especially helpful for women who are sober curious, questioning their drinking, or exploring what a different relationship with alcohol might look like.

“Honesty doesn't have to be brutal. Honesty can be compassionate. Honesty can be respectful.” -Dr. Cory NewmanEpisode OverviewIn this episode, host Dr. Jennifer Reid sits down with Dr. Cory Newman, PhD to explore how the core principles of cognitive behavioral therapy can be woven into our everyday communication with partners, friends, family, coworkers, and even ourselves. What begins as a conversation about therapy technique quickly becomes a practical guide to navigating disagreements, setting boundaries, and showing up more compassionately in all our relationships.Throughout the conversation, Dr. Reid draws connections to her book Guilt Free: Reclaiming Your Life from Unreasonable Expectations (Penguin Life, 2026), which examines how guilt—particularly for women—shapes our communication patterns, our willingness to set boundaries, and our capacity for self-compassion.15 Key Takeaways (Dr. Newman had so many life-changing recommendations, we wanted to make sure you could read about them even if you didn't have time to listen!)1. The Three Pillars of CBTDr. Newman describes CBT as resting on three foundational principles: * A supportive therapeutic alliance* A deep understanding of the patient's lived experience (including cultural and sociological factors)* The development of practical coping skills. These skills promote agency and problem-solving rather than hopelessness and helplessness.CBT Connection: The cognitive behavioral model emphasizes that thoughts, behaviors, and emotions are interconnected. By shifting how we think and what we do, we can change how we feel (Beck, 1979).2. Communication Is Both Internal and ExternalWe tend to think of communication as what we say to others, but Dr. Newman emphasizes that internal dialogue matters just as much. CBT helps people talk to themselves more compassionately, constructively, and hopefully. That same skill then translates outward into better interpersonal communication.He also distinguishes between expressive communication (how we speak) and receptive communication (how we listen), both of which are essential to healthy relationships.Guilt Free Connection: In Guilt Free, Dr. Reid explores how harsh internal dialogue, especially the relentless voice of “I should be doing more,” fuels excessive guilt. Learning to communicate with yourself compassionately is the first step toward breaking free from unreasonable expectations.3. Start with IntentEvery meaningful conversation benefits from a clear, positive intent: to boost morale, to connect, to offer something useful, to communicate understanding. Dr. Newman suggests that even outside of therapy, we can adopt the mindset that our goal in any interaction is to leave the other person, and the relationship, in a better state than when we started.CBT Connection: Intentional communication is a behavioral intervention. By deliberately choosing our communicative goals before speaking, we interrupt automatic patterns that often lead to conflict (Beck, 1995).4. Validity + Utility: The Two-Part Test for What We SayDr. Newman introduces a powerful filter: before speaking, ask whether your comment has both validity (is it truthful?) and utility (is it useful?). Truth alone can be harsh. He pushes back on the idea of “brutal honesty.”Guilt Free Connection: The validity-utility framework directly parallels the guilt equation in Guilt Free, where guilt = our expectations (whether fair or not) minus our perceived reality. Often, guilt-driven communication passes the validity test but fails the utility test. For example, we may say things out of obligation that don't help ourselves or others.5. Intent vs. Impact: Naming the MismatchSometimes people don't mean to cause harm, but their words land that way. Dr. Newman recommends naming the gap directly: “I don't think you're trying to put me down, but the message you're sending sounds like a put-down.” This approach acknowledges the other person's good faith while still making room for your experience.CBT Connection: Distinguishing between intent and impact is central to cognitive restructuring. Cognitive distortions like mind-reading and personalization often cause us to assume malicious intent where there is none (Burns, 1980).6. Seek to Understand Before Problem-SolvingWhen someone is in distress, the instinct is often to jump straight to fixing. Dr. Newman advises leading with empathy instead: “If I were thinking the way you're describing, I'd be a nervous wreck too.” Validate first, then gently offer alternative perspectives. Problem-solving is more effective once the person feels heard.Guilt Free Connection: Dr. Reid describes a pattern she sees frequently, which is people, especially women, catastrophizing about situations and layering guilt on top. The compassionate validation Dr. Newman describes is exactly the antidote: honor the feeling, question the expectation.7. Turn Complaints into RequestsAlmost any complaint can be reframed as a request, and requests are far easier to hear. Instead of “You never reply to my voicemail messages,” try: “I'd really appreciate hearing from you, even briefly. It's hard for me when I don't hear from you.”CBT Connection: This reframing technique is a classic behavioral strategy in CBT. Converting complaints into constructive requests shifts the dynamic from blame to collaboration (Gottman & Silver, 1999).Guilt Free Connection: Dr. Reid explores how maladaptive guilt can be manipulative, such as when guilt-tripping replaces genuine requests, and relationships can suffer. Assertive communication (making requests without guilting) is key to breaking that cycle.8. Silence Fills Vacuums with AssumptionsWhen we avoid communication to spare someone's feelings—say, not RSVPing to avoid disappointing a friend—we leave a vacuum that the other person fills with their own assumptions, which are usually worse than reality. Dr. Newman advises speaking the reality, even when it's uncomfortable, because silence invites personalization and catastrophizing.Guilt Free Connection: In Guilt Free, Dr. Reid identifies avoidance as a common guilt-driven behavior: we don't say no because we don't want to disappoint, but the silence itself creates a bigger problem. Communicating honestly, even imperfectly, is almost always better than disappearing.9. Beware All-or-Nothing Thinking in CommunicationDr. Newman applies one of CBT's most foundational concepts, challenging black-and-white thinking, to our communication habits. You don't have to choose between long silences and a 90-minute heart-to-heart. A quick text saying “Thinking of you” is a powerful middle ground. He calls these “random acts of kindness through text,” which are small gestures that send a meta-message of care.CBT Connection: All-or-nothing thinking is one of the most common cognitive distortions identified in CBT. Recognizing and challenging it opens up a range of behavioral options we might not have considered (Beck, 1976).10. Match the Medium to the MessageText messaging is ideal for quick logistics and small kindnesses, but it strips away tone of voice and body language. Dr. Newman shares a vivid example of a patient whose text “I don't care” (meaning “I don't mind”) sparked a major argument with his girlfriend. For emotional or complicated conversations, choose a medium with more cues, such as phone, video, or in person.His rule of thumb: The more emotional and the more complicated the topic, the more cues are needed.11. The Gottman 20-Minute RuleDrawing on research by John and Julie Gottman, Dr. Newman describes how physiological arousal (elevated heart rate, fight-or-flight activation) makes productive conversation impossible. The Gottmans recommend taking a break during heated arguments and not resuming until at least 20 minutes after your heart rate returns to baseline.Dr. Newman applies this to everyday life: if you receive a message that makes you angry, wait until you've calmed down before responding. Otherwise, frustration will leak through even your most careful words.CBT Connection: Self-monitoring of physiological arousal is a core CBT skill. The Gottman research demonstrates that behavioral interventions (taking a break) must precede cognitive interventions (discussing the issue) when the body is in a threat state.12. Resolve to Resolve—Not to WinDr. Newman highlights one of the most destructive communication patterns: trying to win an argument rather than resolve it. He references the devastating scene in the film Marriage Story where two characters escalate insults in an attempt to out-hurt each other. When the goal shifts from understanding to victory, everyone loses.CBT Connection: The belief “I must convince the other person I'm right” is a cognitive distortion that fuels conflict. CBT teaches that making your point respectfully is already a success. Change in the other person may come later, or not at all, and that's okay (Newman, 2014).13. Never Go to Bed Angry? Not So Fast.Both Dr. Reid and Dr. Newman agree that while the spirit of this advice is sound (don't harbor resentment) the literal application can be harmful. Insisting on resolving a conflict when one partner is exhausted is destructive. The person who needs to sleep should be honored. The meta-message is: don't stonewall, but do respect each other's limits. Use a placeholder: “I want to talk this through, but right now I can't yet.”Guilt Free Connection: This scenario is a guilt trap in action. The pressure to resolve everything immediately often comes from guilt (“A good partner wouldn't go to bed angry”). Dr. Reid's framework encourages questioning whether that expectation is fair and giving yourself permission to rest.14. Setting Boundaries Without GuiltWhen repeated attempts at respectful communication are met with resistance, such as the same pressure, the same guilt trips, it's appropriate to set a firm boundary. Dr. Newman advises doing so with care: “I'd like to talk to you, but not under these conditions. When you can show some respect for what I've said, let me know.” You can walk away from that interaction knowing you handled it with integrity.Guilt Free Connection: Dr. Reid identifies “hyper-accountability,”the belief that we can and should control other people's emotional experience, as a major driver of excessive guilt, especially for women. Letting go of the need to make everyone feel okay is essential to healthy boundary-setting.15. Say the Positive Things Out LoudDr. Newman closes with a deceptively simple but powerful reminder: don't keep positive thoughts to yourself. If you have a compliment, give it. If you feel affection, express it. And one of his favorite tips: talk positively about people behind their back. It often gets back to them and can shift the entire tone of your relationships.CBT Connection: Behavioral activation, which involves increasing positive interactions and reinforcement, is a foundational CBT technique for improving mood and strengthening relationships (Lewinsohn, 1974).Thanks for reading A Mind of Her Own!

Kevin Wolf, CEO and Co-founder of Wind Harvest, has been working to make this vision a reality. His team has developed vertical axis wind turbines that harvest turbulent winds near the ground, a resource previously considered unusable.The idea isn't new; vertical axis turbines have been attempted for decades but failed to overcome engineering challenges. “The turbulent wind has stopped all other technologies from being able to make use of it,” Kevin explained. “It took a long time, a lot of money, and a lot of prototyping of full-scale prototypes…to finally have this product ready for the market.”The key innovation is a patented hinge system that solves a critical weakness of vertical axis turbines—mechanical stress on the blades. “Vertical axis turbines have failed for decades,” Kevin said. “The problem is they rotate 15 million times a year…every rotation, there's a pull with a blade like an airplane wing and a push as it comes around the other side. That connection point breaks…[but] if you put a hinge, all that micro movement is taken up in the hinge.”The potential impact of Wind Harvest's turbines is enormous. By placing them on existing wind farms, they can double the energy output per acre in ideal locations without requiring new infrastructure or land. “We can double the wind farm energy output with our turbines,” Kevin emphasized. He noted that this approach also avoids the costs and environmental impacts of developing new wind farms. “It's a much faster way of developing new wind farms…as opposed to taking raw land, new habitat, and converting that into a wind farm.”Wind Harvest is raising capital through a regulated crowdfunding campaign on StartEngine. This effort allows small investors to support clean energy innovation. Kevin explained the unique challenge of funding such groundbreaking work: “There is a lot of doubt at the level of the venture capitalists…they want us to finish the third-party certification.” In the meantime, crowdfunding has allowed Wind Harvest to bridge the gap and move closer to commercialization.You can find more about their campaign on StartEngine (Top 15 in amount raised on StartEngine.) and be part of an investment opportunity to drive clean energy forward.tl;dr:Kevin Wolf's vertical axis wind turbines harvest turbulent winds near the ground, doubling wind farm efficiency.Wind Harvest's patented hinge system solves a key flaw in traditional vertical axis turbines.Deploying these turbines on existing wind farms reduces costs, accelerates permitting, and avoids new land use.Kevin attributes his success to persistence, flexibility, and consensus-building skills honed over decades.Wind Harvest is raising capital via crowdfunding to finalize certification and commercialize their turbines.How to Develop Persistence and Flexibility As a SuperpowerKevin attributes his success to persistence and flexibility. “I do not like to not have something succeed,” he shared, adding, “I've learned over time that big things take a long time to do.” His training as a river guide and evolutionary ecologist shaped his ability to adapt. “You learn to take new data, change your mind, adjust your hypothesis,” he explained. By pairing this adaptability with relentless persistence, Kevin has overcome significant obstacles in his career.Kevin shared a story from his days at Wolfen Associates, where he helped the city of Sausalito reach consensus on a fire department expansion. After the city's initial proposal failed, Kevin facilitated community meetings, allowing dissenting voices to be heard and their concerns addressed. By incorporating feedback and revising the proposal, the city council gained overwhelming public support in a re-vote. This experience highlights Kevin's ability to persist through challenges while remaining flexible to new perspectives.Tips for Developing the Superpower:Embrace persistence by committing to long-term goals, even when progress feels slow.Stay flexible by adapting to new data and revising plans when necessary.Practice active listening to fully understand others' perspectives.Help others clarify their thoughts by rephrasing and restating their concerns.By following Kevin's example and advice, you can make persistence and flexibility a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.

America Out Loud PULSE with Malcolm Out Loud and Nicolas Hulscher – Excess mortality is declining, but people are still dying. Would you say that the excess deaths are declining because we are getting further away from the jabs, and are the people dying because they took boosters? Have there been any studies looking at infants and the effects of a recent covid infection and subsequent immunizations?

In part on of this series, Dr. Andy Southerland and Dr. Seemant Chaturvedi discuss two trials highlighted at the 2026 International Stroke Conference.  Show citation:  Read more about the CHOICE-2 trial.  Show transcript:  Dr. Andy Southerland: Hello everyone. This is Andy Southerland. And for this week's Neurology Minute, I have just been speaking once again with my colleague, Seemant Chaturvedi, about his impressions from this year's 2026 American Heart Association, American Stroke Association International Stroke Conference. We've discussed a number of the very exciting pivotal trials presented at this year's meeting that occurred just a couple of weeks ago. But for the minute today, we want to just highlight two that were represented as late breaking trials in the world of acute stroke treatment. And the first was OPTION, which was a trial looking at extended window thrombolysis patients between four and a half and 24 hours. And the second was in the use of thrombolysis as an adjunct local treatment in patients receiving thrombectomy. So Seemant, to the best of your ability in our brief snippet today, what were the main highlights from these studies? Dr. Seemant Chaturvedi: In the OPTION trial, 570 patients were enrolled from China, and these were patients in the four and a half to 24 hour window with no evidence of large vessel occlusion. And they had a mismatch present at baseline imaging, median NIH score was seven. And when the tenecteplase was administered in this select group of patients, there was improvement in the excellent outcome of about 44% with tenecteplase and 34% with placebo. And there was a slight increase in hemorrhage of about 3%, but no increase in mortality. The second trial, CHOICE-2, also looked at thrombolysis, but it looked at local intraarterial thrombolysis following thrombectomy. And they enrolled patients with a median NIH score of 15 and the patients were enrolled from Spain and they gave a local TPA versus placebo following successful thrombectomy. And they also reported improved outcomes with about 57.5 having an excellent outcome with intraarterial TPA compared to 43% with placebo. There was slightly increased mortality in the TPA group, but this didn't seem to be explained by intracerebral hemorrhage. And so I think both of these were very intriguing and they add some complexity to acute stroke treatment. And so primary stroke centers and comprehensive stroke centers need to discuss the results with their teams and see if they want to embrace these treatment options. Dr. Andy Southerland: Fantastic, Seemant. So bottom line is thrombolysis is much more than it used to be in that very narrow time window and that very narrow indication. There are now patients who may benefit in that extended time window, and it's also being shown to have benefit in cases in which we get incomplete reperfusion with our traditional mechanical thrombectomy. So take that and run with it. Hopefully we can apply it to our stroke systems of care and help patients. Thank you again, Seemant for being with us on today's Neurology Minute.

Tenderoni Hotline #22: Hello my love, and welcome back to the Tenderoni Hotline, our soft and spacious corner of the Feminist Wellness Podcast, where we explore your most tender questions about healing, nervous system care, and returning home to yourself. Today's episode holds two powerful questions. First, how do you use grounding and orienting when a space is not actually safe? What does nervous system regulation look like for queer folks, BIPOC folks, and anyone navigating real socio-political threat? If hypervigilance has helped keep you alive, are you supposed to just breathe deeper and calm down? Then we turn to another question. Why do high-achieving, successful, respected professionals still struggle to trust themselves? Why does approval seeking persist even when you have built a career, a reputation, and a life that looks solid on paper? Together, we explore the difference between grounding and orienting, and why neither is about pretending you are safe when you are not. We talk about how to stay responsive instead of reactive in spaces that carry risk, how emotional outsourcing develops in the nervous system, and why marginalized bodies cannot simply think their way into safety. We also unpack how self-trust gets wired or not wired in early relational experiences, how patriarchy and capitalism reward being chosen over being known, and why the very skills that make you professionally competent can quietly erode your embodied sense of worth. You will learn why grounding is not about forcing calm, why hypervigilance is not pathology but adaptation, and how self-trust is built through lived moments of centering yourself without the world collapsing. As always, we keep it practical. You will walk away with small, doable practices to begin shifting from external validation toward embodied self-trust, without shame and without overwhelm. So go ahead and get cozy. I'm so glad you're here, my tenderoni. Got a question for the Tenderoni Hotline?

What if your movement today wasn't about burning calories… but about coming back home to God? In this steady-state workout, Alisa Keeton, founder and CEO of Revelation Wellness, invites you into a pace that is sustainable, honest, and present. Keep your effort level above a 5—steady, intentional, consistent. Because when we move, we're telling our brains we're not stuck. We stir up energy. We remind our bodies we are not powerless. Today's workout is simple: If you're moving, you're doing it right. A Transparent Invitation Alisa comes to you today a little thin in her soul—honest, open, and anchored in truth. This episode is an invitation to gaze at God. Like Moses, when we do, our faces shine. "Our soul does not find rest until it rests in God." – St. Augustine As your body moves in steady rhythm, your spirit is invited to settle. Biology marries theology here. Movement meets meditation. Effort meets surrender. Today's Scripture Meditation We are taking one verse and letting it go deep—encoded into brain and body. Not a sweet treat you taste and forget, but meat. Substance. Sustenance. Something you can chew on long after this workout ends. Today's prescription comes from:

   Nobody wants war but after nearly 50 years of killing Americans and chanting "Death to America" it was eventually going to happen with Iran and their radical, oppressive regime.  In an incredible show of military precision and strengh, Iran's leaders were taken out and their military operations have been pounded and are in chaos.  To be sure, President Trump did exactly what he said he would do.  He said it on the campaign trail, he warned them publicy and then he did it.  If this somehow creates peace in the middle east, it will be his crowning achievement.    A Kansas City mega church pastor is planning to run for US Senate and he's certainly well known.  But not always for the reasons you may like.     Andy Reid couldn't make it to the NFL Combine this year recovering from a knee procedure but he sure is upbeat about rebuilding his football team.   KU gets beaten up pretty good in Arizona.  Mizzou rolls and has a great shot at finishing 4th or higher in the SEC.  Carter Jensen goes deep for the Royals.  The Cardinals are discounting all you can eat tickets this year and Tyler Reddick wins for the third week in a row in the NASCAR Cup Series.... to start the season!    And something is just a little fishy about our Final Final today.
