We are back with the second part of our conversation together with our good friend Tim Bender as the we dive deeper into the weeds of some of the most surprising moves in the industry lately. Why not start with the backstory of the Ubisoft partnership on Heroes of Might and Magic: Olden Era for example? Far from a simple hand-off, Tim explains how a long-term dialogue led to a specialist publisher stepping in to steward a legendary IP, and why a massive corporate player sought out a niche team to help find the right "indie" formula for a classic series. And that's not all. Following some recent “LinkedIn shenanigans”, Tim doubles down on his advice that most indie developers are actually better off self-publishing than signing with a publisher that fails to add true value. Expect a candid look at the power dynamics between creators and financiers, concluding with an exploration of why remaining private, and avoiding “public company logic”, is the only way to keep Hooded Horse's 100-year mission on track. Thanks again for joining us Tim! Find out more about Tim and Hooded Horse here.

In this session, Adam helps a client manage self-sabotage and to silence the inner voice that was destructive and critical. Useful if you have an inner dialogue that influences decisions that can cause problems in your life.

Most NATO members were unwilling to directly assist the United States and Israel in their fight to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, saying, “This isn't our war.” The United Kingdom's mission to retake the Falkland Islands from Argentina in 1982 wasn't the United States' war, yet President Ronald Reagan still gave them the supplies necessary to retake the islands. Germany's invasion of France wasn't our war, yet Franklin D. Roosevelt still sent military equipment, and later soldiers, to retake Western Europe. However, Europe's cold shoulder may not be out of spite, but an inability to help at all, explains Victor Davis Hanson on today's edition of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words”: “They have dreamed of utopia and a good life, and the result is that their fertility rate is 1.3. They are shrinking. They are aging. They're not competitive. So they don't have the manpower, even though they have a 450 million-person population. Europe is larger than us by 100 million. “And even though they have a $22 trillion GDP, which is the third-largest, apparently they don't want to invest that in their own defense, or they haven't so far. They don't want us to use it when we need it.” (00:00) NATO Crisis Returns (00:26) Iran Strikes And Allied Refusals (02:44) Why Europe Cannot Contribute (05:26) Moral Posturing And Base Politics (06:08) Let NATO Fade New Alliances

Send a text“How can I help my teen get through self-harm and suicidal behavior?” “Am I harming my teen when I'm trying to help?” “Is healing actually possible?” — The pain, fear, and hopelessness you feel when your teens act out, shut down, or self harm is real. This behavior, though, isn't manipulative or defiant; it's survival. Today, Kayla Richerson sits down with Katie K. May, a therapist, speaker, and the bestselling author of You're on Fire, It's Fine. Katie explains to us that when our teens express big emotions or behave irrationally, it's because they feel like they're on fire, and they're trying to extinguish it. She tells us that the way to extinguish the fire isn't always hospitalization; it's often validation, understanding, and self-regulation. If you struggle with your teen's behavior, or fear that one day you will, this episode is for you. Tune in to hear valuable insights from lived experience, practical advice, and applicable strategies.

The Bible calls believers to lay down selfishness, not their God-given dignity, worth, or safety. Sacrificial love is holy; destructive love is not.

When your teen is engaging in self-destructive behaviors, what you usually see is the tip of the iceberg. You see the cutting, the substance use, the school refusal, the shutdowns or blowups, and it's scary, confusing, and exhausting. But what's happening underneath those behaviors is often invisible. Big emotions. Overwhelm. Shame. Anxiety. A nervous system that's trying to survive. And when all you can see is the behavior, misunderstanding and frustration are almost inevitable.In this episode, I'm joined by therapist, author, and DBT clinician Katie May to help parents slow down and start understanding self-destructive behaviors in their teen or young adult kid through a very different lens. One rooted in the idea that all behavior makes sense, especially when you understand what it's doing for them.We talk about the iceberg analogy and why focusing only on the “tip” keeps parents stuck in fear, power struggles, and reactivity. Katie helps decode behaviors like self-harm, suicidal ideation, substance use, and school avoidance as attempts to regulate overwhelming emotions, not attention-seeking or manipulation.Let's have a look at how to respond to destructive behaviors in ways that reduce shame, build trust, and create the conditions for real change.In this episode on understanding self-destructive behaviors, we discuss:The iceberg analogy: why behavior is only the tip of what's really happening;What “all behavior makes sense” actually means for parents;How emotional dysregulation fuels self-harm, substance use, and school refusal in teens and young adults;Why parents often get stuck reacting to behavior instead of responding to their child's needs;How your own regulation as a parent can de-escalate intense situations;Validating your teen's emotions without excusing harmful behavior;How boundaries, connection, and repair work together;And more!More about Katie MayKatie K. May is a licensed therapist, author, speaker, and group practice owner. She founded Creative Healing, a multi-location teen support center in the Philadelphia area, and wrote the #1 Amazon best-seller You're On Fire, It's Fine. With lived experience as a teen who turned to self-harm, Katie is one of only 11 Linehan Board Certified DBT Clinicians in Pennsylvania, the gold standard treatment for self-harm and suicidal behaviors.

Get Jon's book "End of the World: Civilization and Its Fate": https://www.bloomsbury.com/uk/end-of-the-world-9781538189016/_______________ Dr Jon Mills is a philosopher-psychoanalyst and Honorary Professor at the University of Essex, whose work bridges Hegelian philosophy, psychoanalytic theory, and contemporary existential threats facing civilisation. With over 35 books to his name—including five Gradiva Award winners—Jon has spent decades developing what he calls “dialectical psychoanalysis,” a rigorous philosophical framework for understanding the unconscious mind. His latest work, which we're discussing in this episode, confronts an uncomfortable question: does humanity possess a collective death drive that propels us towards self-destruction?_______________ You can find Jon's work at:Website: https://www.philosophypsychoanalysis.comPublications: https://www.philosophypsychoanalysis.com/academics-psychoanalysis-philosophy_______________In this conversation, I sit down with Jon to explore the darkest questions about our species' future. We examine whether humanity harbours a death wish, diving into the multiple existential crises threatening civilisation—climate change, nuclear weapons, AI risks, geopolitical conflict, and overpopulation/demographic collapse. Jon brings his formidable philosophical toolkit to bear on these challenges, drawing from Hegel, Freud, and his own dialectical framework to understand how good and evil operate simultaneously in human affairs. We debate techno-optimism versus existential pessimism, explore the psychology behind apocalyptic thinking, and we talk about my previous episode on secular eschatology and we discuss what that reveals about our relationship with mortality. We're left with the question of whether our species can transcend its self-destructive patterns or whether we're inexorably drawn towards catastrophe._______________⏳Timestamps00:00 James's Intro01:21 Claude AI's intro to Jon02:16 Jon's prolific output02:59 Does humanity have a death wish?04:13 The collective forces at play05:57 Collective and the collective unconscious09:03 What we mean by humanity - metaphor or reality?11:03 The crises facing humanity today12:25 What Jon wanted to achieve with the book15:45 Universal pessimism?19:41 James on demographic collapse23:29 Poverty decline globally25:21 Optimism on climate26:09 China and the Thucydides Trap27:45 James on AI concerns28:16 Negative trends in prejudice and freedom31:03 The psychology of the Thucydides Trap34:35 Good and evil are operative at once36:43 James's secular eschatology thesis41:45 Why are most apocalypse predictions Western?43:26 Apocalypse as death-cope44:39 Apocalypse as unmet need gone rotten?45:35 Jon's relationship with death48:18 Jon's guest recommendation: Michael Montgomery

In this week's interview episode, I sit down with licensed therapist Katie May to discuss one of parenthood's hardest challenges: supporting teens through self-destructive behaviors and overwhelming emotions. Katie, founder of Creative Healing Teen Support Centers and author of "You're On Fire, It's Fine," shares proven DBT strategies that actually work. We dive deep into mood-dependent behavior, validation techniques, and why your nervous system regulation matters more than you think. If you're watching your teen struggle with anxiety, self-harm, or suicidal thoughts and feel helpless about how to help without making things worse, this conversation will leave you feeling seen, empowered, and genuinely hopeful about what's possible.

I call "straight-up advice." No mashalim, no cryptic wording, no riddles - just proverbs telling you what to do and why. My question going into this was whether there would be any correlation between the style of presentation and the quality or depth of the ideas. Judging by this morning's analysis, the answer seems to be in the negative. We had just as many questions here as we usually do, and the ideas we developed felt completely Mishleic. Tomorrow we'll see what the meforshim have to say (בג"ה).---מקורות:משלי כה:ו-זתרגום רס"גתרגום כתובים-----This week's Torah content is sponsored by Joey and Estee Lichter in commemoration of the yahrzeits of Joey's mother, Faiga bas Yehuda, and Estee's father, Yisroel ben R' Moshe.-----If you've gained from what you've learned here, please consider contributing to my Patreon at www.patreon.com/rabbischneeweiss.

AMB. Chas Freeman : America's Self-Destructive HegemonySee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In last week's class we encountered the Greek myth of Icarus who, ignoring his father's advice, flew too high and too close to the sun so that his wings made of wax and feathers melted, he fell to the sea, and died. In class one of our learners offered a poignant coda. While the rest of the world did not see and did not care about Icarus dying, his father Daedalus cared very much. His father gathers his fallen son and buries him. Daedalus loves his son so much. Cares about him so much. And controls so little. If the son makes decisions that undermine his own life--indeed that end his own life--there is nothing that Daedalus can do but mourn. The Hebrew Bible also contains a powerful story of a father whose heart is broken by the self-destructive decisions of his son: David and Absalom. Absalom rebels and leads an army against his father, King David. When David hears that Absalom has died—his long hair caught up in the branches of a tree, which allowed his enemies to slay him—David famously laments: “My son Absalom! O my son, my son Absalom! If only I had died instead of you! O Absalom, my son, my son!” Infinite love. Infinite care. No control. Infinite pain. So many of us experience our own version of the pain of Daedalus and David. Our loved ones make decisions that we cannot control that undermine their lives and cause us pain. As we enter the High Holiday season tomorrow night with Selikhot, part of the pain we carry into the High Holidays are the times that our loved ones are their own worst enemies, which we can do absolutely nothing about. Is there a prayer that helps? Tomorrow we will look at the most responsive prayer that I know of on this question, The Serenity Prayer:  God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, Courage to change the things I can, And wisdom to know the difference. Would that prayer have helped Daedalus as he buried Icarus? Would that prayer have helped King David as he mourned his son Absalom? Does that prayer help us? When our loved ones undermine their own lives, is serenity even possible?

About This Episode  Vicky Oliver, bestselling author of 301 Smart Answers to Tough Interview Questions and Bad Bosses, Crazy Coworkers & Other Office Idiots, joins us to expose one of the most overlooked threats to career success: self-sabotage in the workplace. Drawing on decades of experience coaching professionals and hiring talent, Vicky unpacks the subtle ways imposter syndrome, fragility, tech anxiety, and pride keep us stuck.   In this candid and empowering episode, she explores the difference between bosses, mentors, and allies—and why surrounding yourself with the right people matters more than ever in today's evolving work environment. Whether you're struggling to step up or already leading others, this is a must-listen for anyone navigating the complex reality of work in 2025 and beyond.

Order my newest book Make Money Easy! https://lewishowes.com/moneyyouCheck out the full episode: greatness.lnk.to/1769Gabby Bernstein opens up about the profound impact of childhood trauma and how unprocessed experiences create fragmented parts of ourselves that become stuck in time. Drawing from her personal journey of sexual abuse and dissociation, she explains how these early protective mechanisms—whether through dissociation, addiction, or self-destructive behaviors—were once necessary survival strategies that now manifest as adult struggles. Her vulnerable conversation sheds light on why many people find themselves repeating patterns they intellectually know are harmful, yet emotionally cannot seem to overcome.This episode delves into the revolutionary understanding that our most challenging behaviors aren't character flaws but rather expressions of wounded inner children who never received the support they needed. Bernstein shares insights on identifying these younger parts of ourselves and offers a compassionate framework for healing that doesn't require perfect parenting in childhood. Her approach combines psychological understanding with practical tools for reconnecting with and nurturing these fragmented aspects of self, creating a powerful roadmap for anyone looking to break free from limiting patterns and reclaim their wholeness.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter

Episode Description: In this episode of Warriors in Hope, I reflect on an important realization in my journey—the distinction between being selfless and losing oneself. It's noble to be selfless, but when we lie down in the muck and mire with others, we risk our own well-being. Through my story and insights, I'll explore how to walk the line between compassion and self-destruction, and why the world needs each of us to stay strong . We are proof that resilience is possible, and our strength can be the light that keeps us—and others—moving forward. Join me as I discuss the power of standing tall in the face of hardship, reclaiming your life, and finding the courage to rise above. For more, connect with Valerie: www.ValerieSilveira.com
