Since the 1960s, scientists have been developing and honing models to understand how the earth's climate is changing. One such pioneer of early climate modelling is Syukuro Manabe, who won the Nobel prize in physics in 2021 for his work laying the foundation for our current understanding of how carbon dioxide affects global temperatures. A seminal paper he co-published in 1967 was voted the most influential climate science paper of all time.In this episode,  we speak to Nadir Jeevanjee, a researcher at the same lab in the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration where Manabe once worked, to look at the history of these early climate models, and how many of their major predictions have stood the test of time. And yet, as climate negotiators gather in the Brazilian city of Belem on the edge of the Amazon for the Cop30 climate summit, the data sources that climate scientists around the world rely on to monitor and model the climate are under threat from funding cuts by the Trump administration.This episode was produced by Mend Mariwany, Katie Flood and Gemma Ware.

I was cast out from my home. Or maybe I ran away. To dry lands. I'm hungry. I need to become something more, to shed a part of me that seemed intrinsic. And the waters are rising.A slow, meditative and moody song.Lyrics: I ran from all l've known to a dry land where nowseeking, seeking, seeking homeFortnights passed aplenty, & was living hungry learning from the serpents who hunted with the moon.One vast & star-pierced midnight, a man emerged from darknessSaid ‘These lands you love shall leave us soon.'He told me, ‘Floods they will course all across these creaturesThese creatures know it rightly, see them climbing from the sandsHe said ‘I dwell in stony ridges, high above the waters.Come dwell with me as we wait for land.'One dawn we were together, above the flooded badlandsHe said, ‘Watch the sun trail crossing the waters down below.'Long I sat there seeking, slowly growing patient'Til I had nowhere else to go.Stone to gold & gold to skyBones broke & scattered, once more & againStars who circle still long after they die Guides guide still once they are slainFloods seeped downward & flowed on to the oceanStone arounds on the ground was all I could seeThe old man passed… & plenty joined me with his passingAll he lived now lives in me.Now walk across these badlands, still learning from the serpentsfinding forlorn singers, cast out from their homesby instigating elders, wise as troubled watersI come to them in their time alone.I sing to them from heaven, deep within the watersI sing to them as air deep within the stonewith a voice of slither serpents, wise as desert daughters,where I wander is where I'm home.Subscribe & SupportFree Story & Media ConsultationComment and Subscribe here This is a public episode.

Growth changes you — and shifts your relationships. Learn why others may not fully understand your recalibration, and how to stay aligned without shrinking or over-explaining.You've stepped into alignment. But while you're growing, some of the people around you are quietly struggling with your shift.In this episode of Identity-Level Recalibration, Julie Holly unpacks why relational resistance often isn't about misalignment — it's about predictive social coding. As your identity recalibrates, others may instinctively try to pull you back toward the version of you they feel safest with.Julie shares a personal story of navigating this tension — how well-meaning people questioned her decision to walk away from stability — and how ILR helped her stay grounded without resentment or shrinking.This episode reframes relational resistance not as a sign you've moved too fast, but as natural friction created when your nervous system recalibrates faster than others' expectations.In This Episode, We Cover:Why relational pushback is common during identity shiftsHow predictive social coding creates relational discomfortWhy others' concern often reflects their nervous system safety, not your misalignmentThe core ILR distinction: identity-first recalibration vs behavior management or conflict skillsJulie Holly's personal experience of stepping away from external successThe Richard Branson example: staying clear on alignment others can't yet seeThe difference between shrinking for safety vs standing in grounded clarityHow to stay kind, clear, and aligned when others don't understand your growthToday's Micro-Recalibration:Ask yourself:Where have I been minimizing or softening my growth — to make others more comfortable?What would it look like to stay steady — without defensiveness or self-doubt — fully grounded in who I'm becoming?Reframe: Relational tension may not mean I'm off track. It may mean I'm growing where others haven't yet arrived.If this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

You've been told your hormones make you irrational.That menopause means cognitive decline, your emotions are just chemistry gone wrong, and your brain is simply too complicated to understand.Science says otherwise.This week's guest, Dr. Sarah McKay, is a neuroscientist, author, and brain health expert who's spent her career dismantling the myths we've been told about women's brains. From the idea that we're slaves to our hormones to the fear that menopause means inevitable decline, Sarah brings data, nuance, and hope to conversations that have been shaped by outdated stereotypes for far too long.We explore:Why male and female brains are more similar than different, and how cultural context shapes the differences we do seeThe surprising truth about PMS: how rates vary from 12% in France to 90% in IranWhy the stereotype that women are "more emotional" isn't backed by scienceHow your brain actually changes during menopauseThe real relationship between hormones, sleep, and brain fogWhy early puberty affects girls and boys so differentlyWhat brain networks do when estrogen declinesThe truth about HRT and brain health: what the data actually showsHow expectations and cultural narratives create the experiences we haveSarah doesn't dismiss women's struggles or minimize real symptoms. Instead, she offers something more powerful: the understanding that our brains are not broken, fragile, or at the mercy of our biology. They're sophisticated, adaptive, and capable of remarkable reorganization throughout our lives.This isn't about toxic positivity or dismissing genuine challenges. It's about recognizing that the stories we've been told about women's brains, that we're irrational, unstable, or declining, aren't just wrong. They're actively shaping our reality.Love,Sarah Ann

Hey doc,This one might sting, but it's worth staying for.In this episode I am calling out (with love) the high-achieving physician moms who don't realize the pattern that you're part of: weaponized perfectionism. Not because you're mean or controlling. But because you're capable. Efficient. An intelligent, successful physician mom who knows how to get things done.But when those same traits spill into your marriage, they can unintentionally block the very support you're craving.In this episode, let's talk about:The ways some of us unintentionally sabotage shared responsibilityHow the word “let” reveals power dynamics we don't always seeThe difference between “letting” him help vs trusting him to leadThe hidden consequences for your kids (and your future marriage)And one big question I want you to think about: Are you weaponizing perfection against yourself?You didn't ask to carry it all, but you also didn't stop yourself from picking it up.  Let him rise.What did you think of the episode, doc?

Through stories of ride-alongs with law enforcement (not as a criminal, we promise!) and firefighters across the country, Ben, as a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW), reflects on what he's learned sitting shotgun in squad cars. From awkward intros and suspicion to unexpected connection and trust, this conversation reveals how shared space, when approached with curiosity, can spark understanding, empathy, and even healing. The guys explore why every civilian should experience a ride-along or a 12-step meeting, and how getting outside your own bubble shifts perspective in powerful ways.You'll also hear:The emotional weight of the job that most never seeThe “human behind the badge” that media often missesWhy slowing down to observe is essential for cultural competencyWhat happens when a clinical director rides along—and what officers think he's really there for

I'm coming to you on the other side of a trip where I had the absolute JOY of facilitating a retreat with my good friend, Kaitlin Cox. This was a rare gift that I didn't know I needed, and goodness, did it fill my cup!In today's episode, I want to talk about coming home: politics, purpose, and the ripple effect. After helping Kaitlin with her retreat and hearing the raw and powerful stories from the women there, I was reminded that every single one of us has gone through ‘something'. We've all experienced some kind of trauma or hardship that isn't visible to the outside world, but there is MAGIC when we come together, and share what's on our hearts!I know this to be the ‘ripple effect', and I've seen it play out in beautiful ways in my own life. I've chosen to take action and heal in ways I never thought possible; this has radiated to incredible women like Kaitlin, and the work that she's doing is radiating to the women in HER circle! It may sound a bit cheesy, but if you want to help people and make the world a better place, it starts with YOU. You heal the world by healing yourself, and you change the world by changing yourself.In this episode, I cover:The inner knowing we have when something isn't ‘quite right', and we're meant to pursue something differentRealizing that every single person is carrying something ‘hard' that the outside world can't seeThe power in what is the ‘ripple effect' + how I've seen this play out in my own lifeWhy making the world a better place actually starts with you and your healingWhy it's beautiful + actually normal to not ‘fit in a box' and fully align with one political partyThe collective necessity towards practicing genuine empathy + why I KNOW that my purpose is rooted in healingUnderstanding that while it's great to evolve, you are already worthy and ‘enough', just as you areBe sure to hit subscribe so you never miss the latest episode!Connect with Emily:Follow on Instagram and FacebookJoin my email listCheck out my websiteConnect with on LinkedInRelated Episodes:Episode 089 | Loss, Healing, and Empowerment with Kaitlin CoxResources and Links:Gather in Growth Sponsorship InquiryBook me as a speaker for your next eventGather in Growth podcast produced by: Jill Carr PodcastingMentioned in this episode:Book me as a keynote speaker, workshop host, or emcee for your next event!

It's a fine Monday on this final week of February as we talk about the efforts to stave off a massive wave of potentially industry-killing EVs.

With Christ, all things, even the hard things – are possible.

THE WORST-CASE SCENARIO In one of the recent segments of this podcast, titled “What if This is Hell?” I indulged a “what if” conjecture, speculating that this earthly life may not be some kind of test, as many religions conceive of it — wherein those who pass the test go to their reward in heaven, while those who fail are condemned to an eternity in hell — but that this level of existence, if there are levels, may actually be Hell itself, with a capital “H”. I then explored the implications of that supposition. In the last segment, titled “Change the World,” I carried the thread a bit further, issuing a challenge to consider: What would you actually do, if you had the power to change the world? Where would you begin? Unfortunately, these days, everything is subject to being politicized, and even classified as partisan, especially if we dare to be even mildly critical of the status quo. So I want you to indulge me in a huge caveat, here. Please set aside any knee-jerk reactions to read a partisan or political slant into my discussion of the world as I see it, and my fears of where it may be going in the near future. I don't have all the facts at my disposal, needless to say, which places me in the same class as all other current commentators and writers. Nobody has their arms around “the full catastrophe” — thank you, Zorba the Greek. These issues are not merely a matter of political opinion. They may turn out to be not only legal in their impact, but lethal in their unintended consequences. In an early piece, lost somewhere in my ever-expanding archive of prior writings, I made the somewhat specious point that it is not lost on me — that those who are (or have been) most resistant to recognizing the validity of concerns over global warming, or the less threatening label, “climate change”; and those who have been loudest in sounding the alarm about it — tend to be reflective of the two dominant political parties, as currently defined. I am also keenly aware of another correlation, that the former tend to populate the so-called “flyover,” rural areas of the country — let's call them the “Reds” — while the latter are more concentrated in coastal, urban locales — let's call them the “Blues,” in keeping with the tropes of the times, as well as Orwell's characterization of the permanent state of global warfare in 1984, if memory serves, reporting on the battles between “the reds” and “the blues,” with our side constantly winning, of course. Thus, my hopefully ironic point was, if worse comes to worst, and the coastal areas are flooded by rising ocean waters owing to the worst scenarios predicted by the “woke” faction coming true, some may welcome the idea that we will have a truly “red” country from coast to coast, though on a significantly smaller continent, as all of the “blue” coastal cities are now under water. A crude but compelling rendering of one potential consequence of our actions, or inactions, following from our inattention to Mother Nature's mandates. But seriously, folks. Let us assume for the sake of argument that the doomsday predictions — of what are, after all, the majority of scientists around the globe — are for real. The oceans are irreversibly warming, and the ice caps at both poles are melting. The South Pole being the most threatening, apparently being defrosted from underneath by warming Antarctic waters. When those ice cubes fall into the drink, that glass of tea is going to overflow, and quickly. To the tune of a ten-foot rise in the world-around oceans, according to those who do the math. Goodbye New York, LA, San Francisco, San Diego, Jacksonville, Miami, Savannah, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. Well, you say, we will just all move inland; head for the hills, the high ground. The interior of the country is not exactly a paradisical refuge these days, what with natural-man-made disasters resulting in losses of crops, diminishing harvests, and resultant general mayhem disrupting country folks' formerly pastoral lifestyle. Any refugees from the coasts will encounter forest fires, drought, flash floods, and geometrically expanding tornados and hurricanes, along with air pollution on steroids. What have historically been labeled as “once-in-a-lifetime,” “500-“ or “1000-year” events may now be annual, seasonal, or monthly, while increasing in magnitude each year Further, in today's divisive political climate, it is anyone's guess whether the “blues” fleeing from the coastal deluge will find themselves welcomed, or confronted, by the “reds” — many of whom are armed to the teeth — as the scarcity of resources increases, and easy access to the necessities of life decreases. Another major concern: major coastal flooding will not only take out major cities, or major parts of them, but will also disrupt the seaports through which much of the commerce of the world flows, including imports of fresh food increasingly shopped and shipped from other countries. The most absurd example of this trend I have heard of had to do with a ship from China, a floating chicken factory, that regularly docks at a port in California to pick up a boatload of live chickens, then sails a wide circle in the ocean while “processing” them, only to return to the same dock and offload the meat. This is somehow more profitable than processing the chickens on the farm. And this is only one example of the international scale and scope of how the world “works” these days. Throw in the possibility of yet another pandemic, with supply lines permanently — not temporarily — disrupted, and you begin to see the dystopian possibilities. In this case, what's a Zen person to do? One suggestion would be to not sweat the small stuff. And its corollary: it's all small stuff. At least, our usual, trivial preoccupations are. Those of you who follow my podcast may recognize the following anecdote, from UnMind #111: “Analysis and Analogy.” Please forgive the redundancy — and the absurdity of quoting myself — but the story has relevancy to our current thread of Design Thinking and Zen, in the dystopian present. It bears repeating one more time. We once had a young man visit the Zen center who had trained with Tony Packer, the heir apparent to Roshi Philip Kapleau, who had famously turned down an offer to take up his mantle, the robe of a transmitted Zen priest. She had published a book on her approach to practicing Zen without calling it Zen, titled “The Work of This Moment” if memory serves, which I asked to borrow from him. One of her main points in the text was to avoid falling into “comparative thinking,” which was exactly what this young man had done. From the first time he joined the meditation sessions, he continually questioned and criticized each and every detail of the protocols we followed at that time. To address his concerns, I invited him to give a guest talk on his opinions, or hers, which was received with the sympathetic skepticism you would expect from a community of folks who had all had similar reservations, as to the protocols of a practice inherited from Japanese and Chinese traditions. I also made up a parable, or analogy, for him to consider. To wit: A monk is travelling through a remote mountain pass late at night, needing to get to the other side of the range. A sudden storm blows up, forcing him to seek shelter. Fortunately, he finds a cave nearby, and settles down to wait out the weather. But as his eyes adjust to the dark of the cave, and his sense of smell adapts to the stale air, he begins to notice the remains of carcasses strewn about the floor. Just as he realizes that he is ensconced in the lair of some kind of beast, and is preparing to make his escape, a large, furry silhouette appears in the entrance, blocking him from leaving. Standing there, shaking in fear, he asks himself: Now, what is the best way to confront this situation: standing flat on my feet, or up on my toes? In a situation like this, the details are clearly not all that relevant, and can even create a distraction from what is, starkly, relevant: the “clear and present danger.” Similarly, in the situation we are now confronting globally, details fall into insignificance. We are left with the question posed by Master Dogen, in Fukanzazengi—Principles of Seated Meditation, when he asks: Now that you know the most important thing in Buddhism, how can you be satisfied with the transient world? Our bodies are like dew on the grass and our lives like a flash of lightning — vanishing in a moment. If you have listened to UnMind #53: “Principles of Zazen,” this will sound familiar and, again, somewhat redundant, but if anything bears repetition, it is Dogen's teaching. What is “the most important thing” in all of Buddhism?; after he has rattled off several pages of things to consider. The same question gets to the point in our present dire straits: what is the most important thing to do about it? How to go about “actualizing the fundamental point,” another Dogenism from his classic Genjokoan. This is the koan of the present moment in history, which may mark the end of history as we know it. The end did not come in 1989, when Francis Fukuyama controversially and prematurely predicted that liberal democracy had triumphed, and in his 1992 book, “The End of History and the Last Man,” fulfilling the earlier vision of Hegel (see link in the post): Hegel had argued that history has a telos or goal – an end point – equivalent to the emergence of a perfectly rational and just state. That state would guarantee the liberty necessary for the full development of all human capacities. At the same time, it would exist in a state of perpetual peace with other – similarly configured – states. Would that it had come to pass, but like all visions of the future — utopian or dystopian — certain determinative factors were left out of the calculation. Just as legal trumps political, no pun intended; natural trumps legal and political. Mother Nature will not be denied, no matter how “evolved” we consider the machinations of humankind to be. We are all complicit, if not equally responsible, for the kettle of hot water in which we find ourselves. The problem of human survival on a global scale is too vast and variable to be amenable to discrete definition, so we are forced to resort to the old trope to “think globally but act locally.” In Buddha's time it was no different, the “act locally” part, that is, but in terms of thinking globally, they did not have the overwhelming glut of information that we “enjoy” today. But Buddha's prescription for addressing the problems of life and society still apply today. Take good care of yourself and those around you. Whatever comes to pass, and however our lives come to their conclusion, there was never any other ending to the story. What matters is what we do about it now. As Matsuoka Roshi would often say, demonstrating the zazen posture, “This is the most you can do.” Zen is a way of action. If you get straight with yourself on the cushion — your life, your death — you will more likely know what to do, and when to do it, off the cushion. Don't look to me, or anyone else, for specifics, but “Be a light unto yourself.” Spread the word. ZEN VERSUS DAILY LIFE 7Worst CaseWe have lived to seeThe worst-case scenarioLet us sit it out. THE WORST-CASE SCENARIO In one of the recent segments of this podcast, titled “What if This is Hell?” I indulged a “what if” conjecture, speculating that this earthly life may not be some kind of test, as many religions conceive of it — wherein those who pass the test go to their reward in heaven, while those who fail are condemned to an eternity in hell — but that this level of existence, if there are levels, may actually be Hell itself, with a capital “H”.

How to go about “actualizing the fundamental point,” another Dogenism from his classic Genjokoan. This is the koan of the present moment in history, which may mark the end of history as we know it. The end did not come in 1989, when Francis Fukuyama controversially and prematurely predicted that liberal democracy had triumphed, and in his 1992 book, “The End of History and the Last Man,” fulfilling the earlier vision of Hegel (see link in the post): Hegel had argued that history has a telos or goal – an end point – equivalent to the emergence of a perfectly rational and just state. That state would guarantee the liberty necessary for the full development of all human capacities. At the same time, it would exist in a state of perpetual peace with other – similarly configured – states. Would that it had come to pass, but like all visions of the future — utopian or dystopian — certain determinative factors were left out of the calculation. Just as legal trumps political, no pun intended; natural trumps legal and political. Mother Nature will not be denied, no matter how “evolved” we consider the machinations of humankind to be. We are all complicit, if not equally responsible, for the kettle of hot water in which we find ourselves. The problem of human survival on a global scale is too vast and variable to be amenable to discrete definition, so we are forced to resort to the old trope to “think globally but act locally.” In Buddha's time it was no different, the “act locally” part, that is, but in terms of thinking globally, they did not have the overwhelming glut of information that we “enjoy” today. But Buddha's prescription for addressing the problems of life and society still apply today. Take good care of yourself and those around you. Whatever comes to pass, and however our lives come to their conclusion, there was never any other ending to the story. What matters is what we do about it now. As Matsuoka Roshi would often say, demonstrating the zazen posture, “This is the most you can do.” Zen is a way of action. If you get straight with yourself on the cushion — your life, your death — you will more likely know what to do, and when to do it, off the cushion. Don't look to me, or anyone else, for specifics, but “Be a light unto yourself.” Spread the word.

Hymn/Poem Shared in today's reflection by John Henry NewmanLOOK KINDLY, LIGHTSung at the end by BYU VOCAL POINTLead, kindly Light, amid the gloom of evening.Lord, lead me on! Lord, lead me on!On through the night! On to your radiance!Lead, kindly Light!Lead, kindly Light, kindly Light!1 The night is dark, and I am far from home,Direct my feet; I do not ask to seeThe distant scene; one step enough for me.So lead me onward, Lord, and hear my plea. [Refrain]2 Not always thus, I seldom looked for you,I loved to choose and seek my path alone.In spite of fear, my pride controlled my will,Remember not my past, but lead me still. [Refrain]3 So long your pow'r has blest me on the way,And still it leads, past hill and storm and night!And with the morn, those angel faces smile,Which I have loved long since, and lost a while.

What's more important: respecting the principle of D.C. self-governance, or staying on the right side of an explosive national issue? Yesterday, President Joe Biden chose politics over principle. It did not go over well with some Democrats.  In November, the D.C. Council passed a major reform of the District's criminal code. The legislation was vetoed by Mayor Muriel Bowser, who objected to reductions in penalties for some serious crimes, such as carjackings and home burglaries. In January, her veto was overridden by the council, 12-1. At the time, the White House issued a statement of administration policy opposing the resolution on the grounds that “denial of self-governance is an affront to the democratic values on which our Nation was founded.” An overwhelming majority of House Democrats voted against the resolution (31 Dems supported it). As the resolution was teed up in the Senate, it became conventional wisdom that Biden would veto it. That was incorrect. On Thursday, while addressing Senate Democrats, the president shocked Washington and declared that he would sign the measure if it reached his desk. “I support D.C. Statehood and home-rule,” Biden tweeted after the meeting, “but I don't support some of the changes D.C. Council put forward over the Mayor's objections — such as lowering penalties for carjackings. If the Senate votes to overturn what D.C. Council did — I'll sign it.” Plus, Playbook editor Mike DeBonis catches up with national political correspondent Meridith McGraw who's on the ground at CPAC, the annual conservative conference.  Subscribe to the POLITICO Playbook newsletter Raghu Manavalan is the host and senior editor of POLITICO's Playbook Daily Briefing.

Pepsi Enthusiasts Cope and Seethe by lotuseaters.com

Wow! It's hard to watch these vile humans justify killing babies. They will try, but we are fighting back. We won't let this narrative continue. We are so close to taking a huge step in the right direction. We dissect how sick and desensitized these demon-possessed people have become. Our favorite spicy Latina, BlazeTV host Sara Gonzales of "The News & Why It Matters," combats the ridiculous ideas the Left has propagated about “womanhood.” We know that womanhood so precious because of the ability to give birth and nurture children. Now, they want to strip all of that away from you. Let the teachers raise your kids, if they make it out of the womb, don't use breastmilk, and don't you dare say to not have sex if you don't want to get pregnant. “I want to do what I want to do with no consequences” sums up the growing radical Left right now. Life has rules, society has rules, and yes, they may be slightly offensive. ________________________________________________________________ ⇩ TODAY'S SPONSORS ⇩ PATRIOT MOBILE: Patriot Mobile has plans to fit any budget AND their 100%, US-based, customer support team provides exceptional customer support.
