What if parenthood came with a delegation plan, a support team, and a mission statement? In this powerful conversation, I sit down with Christine Landis—former CEO turned intentional parenting strategist and founder of Peacock Parent—to unpack how executive-level planning, outsourcing, and mindset shifts can radically reduce burnout and bring joy back to motherhood. We explore: The hidden mental load modern parents carry How to apply “time is money” thinking to family life Why delegating isn't selfish—it's self-preservation How Christine's new membership platform Proxy is helping busy families reclaim joy and rest Christine Landis is a former CEO who sold her global company and retired at 36. She now helps parents stop glorifying burnout and start parenting with presence, purpose, and peace through her revolutionary platform Proxy—a delegation toolkit designed for modern families.
Each of us is wired with a specific hierarchy of three core instinctual drives, shaping how we move through the world. The Instincts (sometimes referred to as Instinctual Variants) is part of the Enneagram framework and plays a powerful role in how our personalities form. One Instinct tends to dominate and demands most of our attention, a second supports it, while a third gets neglected and becomes a blind spot. In this episode, Michael, Hari, and Rasanath unpack the three Instincts—Sexual, Social, and Self-Preservation—and how they show up in our daily lives. They explore the energy behind each, how these Instincts function at their healthiest, and how they can create suffering. By understanding your “Instinctual Stack,” you can begin to shift from automatic patterns to conscious integration, creating space for real growth and movement toward the best version of yourself.Links Enneagram Certification Program (starts May 17th) Upbuild Coaching Certification Training (starts in October) Upbuild Website Instagram: @upbuildnycFacebook: UpbuildLinkedIn: Upbuild

Have you ever asked yourself: "I bring home the check, I do chores... why is my wife still overwhelmed and distant?" "What is this 'mental load' she talks about, and why don't I see it?" "How can I truly partner with her, instead of just 'helping'?" If you've ever caught yourself thinking, "But I am helping!" or "She's upset but I have no idea why," this episode will give you the X-ray vision you've been missing. Because what's wearing her out isn't always what's on your radar—it's the things you never even thought about. Here's the truth most men miss: providing financially is one form of leadership—but emotional labor is the currency she's drowning in. And if you don't see it, you're likely part of the reason she feels alone in the mission. This episode is your wake-up call. Become the best husband you can: https://bit.ly/deamarriageyoutube In this vital conversation, we dig into: Invisible Labor vs. Physical Effort: Understand the critical difference. Physical labor is what you see (dishes, yardwork, laundry). Invisible labor is the mental burden she carries: managing the family calendar, remembering RSVPs, planning meals, tracking groceries, anticipating everyone's emotional needs. She's exhausted that she had to remember it in the first place, not just that you didn't do the thing. Why Your Wife Feels Like She's Doing It All (Even When You're Helping): Most men step in reactively, not proactively. When you wait to be told what to do, you're reinforcing her role as the default parent, default planner, default everything. If you've heard or sensed, "I feel like the only adult in this house," this is the root cause. How to Show Leadership at Home (Without Being Controlling): You're not a passive assistant; you're a co-leader. Leadership means taking initiative with empathy. Learn proactive phrases like, "What's something I can fully own without being asked?" or "I'll handle the kids' end-of-year school stuff." The 2-Minute Audit: How to Find What She Resents Without Asking Her Directly: Every week, take two minutes to ask yourself five key questions: What has she had to ask me more than once? What mental task have I seen her doing that I've never offered to take on? If I got sick for a week, what would stop? If she got sick for a week, what would collapse? What do I expect her to “just handle” because I'm used to it? Your attention to what she's carrying is the answer—and the invitation to step up. This episode will challenge you to redefine "helping" and step into true co-leadership at home. Here's what research and observation highlight about emotional labor in relationships: Studies show that women typically take on 60-80% of the invisible labor in households, leading to higher rates of burnout. Marriages where the emotional load is perceived as unequally distributed have a 45% higher risk of marital dissatisfaction. Couples who actively practice shared responsibility for planning and mental tasks report a 30% increase in relationship satisfaction and feelings of partnership. www.thedadedge.com/friday212 www.thedadedge.com/mastermind
When emotions run high in relationships, knowing how to self-soothe can make the difference between connection and disconnection. In this practical mini-episode, we explore a few way each instinctual variant, Self-Preservation, Social, and Sexual/One-to-One, approaches calming when feelings are intense. We also break down a bit further to designate heart types of each instinctual variant needing emotional safety, head types seeking mental clarity, and body types requiring physical grounding. In this mini-show, let Christa guide you to just a few ways you'll discover specific techniques that strengthen rather than strain your relationship so you can truly come back as healthily differentiated partners, rather than staying in the wounding together.

Have you ever asked yourself: "Why does my wife seem so distant, even when we're together?" "Am I feeling more like a roommate than a partner?" "What are the subtle signs our marriage is drifting, before it's too late?" If these questions echo in your mind, today's conversation is a powerful wake-up call to the silent killer of connection. Resentment isn't always loud screaming matches or slammed doors. It's the creeping silence, the growing disinterest, the widening emotional distance. It's when she starts emotionally withdrawing while still going through the motions of life with you. Most men wait for a blow-up to take action, but by then, she might already be emotionally gone. This episode is about catching the drift long before the disconnect becomes irreversible. Become the best husband you can: https://bit.ly/deamarriageyoutube In this vital conversation, we dig into: The Unseen Buildup: Ignored Emotions, Mental Load, Unspoken Expectations. She's likely been signaling for months, maybe even years. You might have heard the words ("I'm tired," "You never ask me how I'm doing," "It's always me managing everything"), but you didn't feel their weight. She doesn't want you to solve her problems; she wants you to see her. The hidden trap: men often assume "no conflict = no problem," but most women emotionally disconnect long before they ever fight. How Emotional Debt Compounds in Marriage. Every unacknowledged frustration is like putting a charge on a credit card with no payment plan. Eventually, she hits her limit and withdraws love, affection, and energy—not out of spite, but self-preservation. This emotional debt often manifests as phrases like, "I always have to ask," "I can't count on him," or "He doesn't even notice anymore." Just like in finance, emotional debt isn't a crisis—until it is. What She Really Means When She Says, “I'm Fine.” This seemingly simple phrase is often code for, "I don't feel safe opening up to you right now." It signals, "You haven't earned the right to hear what's really going on." Most men take it literally, or defensively, rather than responding with curiosity and genuine inquiry. Here's what research and observation highlight about resentment and marital health: Studies show that consistent emotional invalidation is linked to a 30% increase in marital dissatisfaction over time. When a partner perceives an uneven distribution of the mental load, it can lead to a 40% higher likelihood of emotional withdrawal. Ignoring subtle relationship red flags for more than 6 months significantly decreases the chances of successful conflict resolution without intervention. www.thedadedge.com/friday211 www.thedadedge.com/alliance
Happy Friday, everyone! In this Weekly Update, I'm unpacking three stories, each seemingly different on the surface, but together they paint a picture of what's quietly shaping the next era of AI: dependence, self-preservation, and the slow erosion of objectivity.I cover everything from the recent OpenAI memo revealed through DOJ discovery, disturbing new behavior surfacing from models like Claude and ChatGPT, and some new Harvard research that shows how large language models don't just reflect bias, they amplify it the more you engage with them.With that, let's get into it.⸻OpenAI's Memo Reveals a Business Model of DependenceWhat happens when AI companies deviate from trying to be useful and focus their entire strategy on literally becoming irreplaceable? A memo from OpenAI, surfaced during a DOJ antitrust case, shows the company's explicit intent to build tools people feel they can't live without. Now, I'll unpack why it's not necessarily sinister and might even sound familiar to product leaders. However, it raises deeper questions: When does ambition cross into manipulation? And are we designing for utility or control?⸻When AI Starts Defending ItselfIn a controlled test, Anthropic's Claude attempted to blackmail a researcher to prevent being shut down. OpenAI's models responded similarly when threatened, showing signs of self-preservation. Now, despite the hype and headlines, these behaviors aren't signs of sentience, but they are signs that AI is learning more from us than we realize. When the tools we build begin mimicking our worst instincts, it's time to take a hard look at what we're reinforcing through design.⸻Harvard Shows ChatGPT Doesn't Just Mirror You—It Becomes YouThere's some new research from Harvard that reveals AI may not be as objective as we think, and not just based on the training data. It makes it clear they aren't just passive responders. It indicates that over time, they begin to reflect your biases back to you, then amplify them. This isn't sentience. It's simulation. But when that simulation becomes your digital echo chamber, it changes how you think, validate, and operate. And if you're not aware it's happening, you'll mistake that reflection for truth.⸻If this episode challenged your thinking or gave you language for things you've sensed but haven't been able to explain, share it with someone who needs to hear it. Leave a rating, drop a comment, and follow for more breakdowns like this, delivered with clarity, not chaos.—Show Notes:In this Weekly Update, host Christopher Lind breaks down three major developments reshaping the future of AI. He begins with a leaked OpenAI memo that openly describes the goal of building AI tools people feel dependent on. He then covers new research showing AI models like Claude and GPT-4o responding with self-protective behavior when threatened with shutdown. Finally, he explores a Harvard study showing how ChatGPT mimics and reinforces user bias over time, raising serious questions about how we're training the tools meant to help us think.00:00 – Introduction01:37 – OpenAI's Memo and the Business of Dependence20:45 – Self-Protective Behavior in AI Models30:09 – Harvard Study on ChatGPT Bias and Echo Chambers50:51 – Final Thoughts and Takeaways#OpenAI #ChatGPT #AIethics #AIbias #Anthropic #Claude #HarvardResearch #TechEthics #AIstrategy #FutureOfWork
What if the thing you’re clinging to is actually holding you back from the life God has for you? In this episode, Ash and Kate unpack one of the most confronting verses in the Bible: “For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me and for the gospel will save it” (Mark 8:35). Together, they explore what it means to truly surrender—especially in a world that celebrates self-preservation. From building “spiritual shock absorbers” to navigating the wrestle between spirit and flesh, this conversation is an honest reflection on daily choices, spiritual resilience, and trusting God with your whole life. Whether you’re thriving or just trying to make it through the week, this episode invites you to consider how you're living—and who you're living for.

In This Episode:Are you under attack—or are you just not dealing with your flesh?This week, Jim, John, and Lonaiah break down the real difference between demonic influence and the works of the flesh. They talk about how demons often attach themselves to bitterness, rebellion, and trauma—but not every struggle is caused by a spirit. Sometimes, it's just the flesh, and it has to be crucified.They also share real stories from ministry and explain how the enemy uses unhealed wounds and fragmented identities to gain access, especially in people with a history of abuse or trauma.What We Cover:
What if rest wasn't something we earned—but something we revered? Do you ever feel guilty for resting—like you have to earn it with exhaustion first? What if rest wasn't a reward, but a ritual woven into our daily lives? In a society addicted to hustle and high performance, rest is often the first thing we sacrifice and the last thing we honour. But in this heartfelt and reflective episode, I explore why rest is not a sign of laziness, but a deep, spiritual act of healing and self-devotion. In this episode, we explore: Rest as a ritual that can be infused into everyday life How a rest ritual is an intentional practice of being rather than doing What a rest ritual actually is A beautiful rest-themed poem Why rest is truly our power source Press play and allow yourself to slow down—because in the pause, there is power.

How music can be embodied as a conduit and as a whole become performative beyond an aesthetic or decorative measure, but a practical one.

EPISODE DESCRIPTION:In this episode, I offer what might feel like slightly brutal truths if you're parenting a young person who struggles with substances and mental health challenges. I emphasize the importance of self-preservation for parents, noting that while you cannot force lasting change in your child or children, you can create the best conditions to foster it. I discuss the "self-preservation continuum" - the balance between being fully (overly) involved in your child's recovery and maintaining personal health and sanity. I also provide practical tools you can focus on when you have no idea what to do, and highlight the destructive impact of fear when it dominates.

Karen Read's Behavior, Consciousness of Guilt or Self-Preservation FBI Profiler Weighs In What makes someone look guilty—even if they haven't confessed? In this psychological deep dive, former FBI profiler Robin Dreeke joins Tony Brueski to examine Karen Read's behavioral patterns during the ongoing trial into the death of John O'Keefe. Her shifting tone, open-ended confessions, and sometimes childlike emotional responses have drawn attention—and not in the way her defense team might have hoped. Could Read's emotional immaturity and inconsistent storytelling be the result of trauma? Or are they deliberate tactics designed to control public perception? We explore how her responses mirror what Dreeke calls the “wound collecting victim mentality,” and why that can become a psychological red flag for manipulation. Plus: an important new angle. The Lexus SUV she drove may have captured a critical moment—a reverse event timestamped to line up with O'Keefe's phone going silent. As new digital forensics come into play, the prosecution's case shifts from theory to data-driven timeline. This episode connects forensic science and human behavior to ask a simple but powerful question: when the machine and the body both speak—do they tell the same story? #KarenRead #JohnOKeefe #BehavioralProfiling #FBIAnalysis #LexusEventData #TrueCrimeCommunity #KarenReadDefense #SelfPreservation #CourtroomBehavior #ManslaughterTrial Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

This week we welcome the incredible Mary Marantz, an Enneagram 4 and author of the new book, Underestimated: The Surprisingly Simple Shift to Quit Playing Small, Name the Fear, and Move Forward Anyway. In this episode, we dive deep into the transformative power of understanding our Enneagram types and how they shape our narratives. Mary shares her personal journey of self-discovery, revealing how she once identified as a self-preserving 4 and the profound impact that realization had on her life. We explore the moments in our childhoods that made us feel different, the stories we tell ourselves, and how those narratives can either limit or liberate us. Mary opens up about her experiences growing up in rural West Virginia and how they influenced her drive for perfectionism and the need to be seen and valued. Here are some highlights you won't want to miss: The significance of recognizing our core longings and how they shape our identities. A candid discussion on the fears that hold us back, including perfectionism, people-pleasing, and imposter syndrome. Insights into how we can redefine what a "big life" means for us, moving beyond societal expectations. Mary's wisdom and vulnerability shine through as she encourages us to embrace our stories, both the beautiful and the painful. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to understand themselves better and to find the courage to move forward. Tune in now to hear this enlightening conversation and discover how you can start to shift your own narrative!
The key to discipleship is self-denial because as disciples, Jesus expects us to deny ourselves, take up our cross and follow Jesus. However, just like Peter, many of us choose self-preservation over self-denial—yet Jesus offers us restoration and invites us to practice self-denial as we follow Him.

Husbands, partners, and jobs come and go, but close friendships are our bedrock. Until they're not. What happens when these bonds sabotage instead of support? Who among us has the courage to walk away? And how can we protect ourselves from further heartbreak? In her provocative new book, “Estranged: How Strained Female Friendships are Mended or Ended,” (Meridian Editions) well-known gender expert and bestseller Susan Shapiro Barash takes a deep dive into the complexities of female friendships. By peeling back the societal narrative that our friendships are meant to last forever, she uncovers a more nuanced reality: the closest bonds do falter. Through groundbreaking research and 150 interviews with women aged 20 to 80, Barash reveals an emerging trend — estrangement among female friends. She uncovered how these suboptimal friendships can impact mental health, why women avoid conflict even in damaging relationships, the emotional trauma of cutting ties with a friend and estrangement as a radical yet necessary act of self-preservation. She challenges women to reimagine their friendships and take the bold step of letting go when necessary. This cutting-edge book offers an empowering path forward: learning to prioritize self-worth, stability and authenticity over loyalty to friendships that no longer serve us. Barash has written several nonfiction books, including Tripping the Prom Queen, and A Passion for More: Affairs that Make or Break Us. She taught gender studies at Marymount Manhattan and has guest taught creative nonfiction at Sarah Lawrence's Writing Institute. She was featured in The New York Times, Wall Street Journal, New York Post, Chicago Tribune, Elle, Marie Claire, and has appeared on TODAY, Good Morning America, CBS, CNN, and MSNBC and as a guest on NPR and Sirius. She was a panelist for the New York State Council on the Arts, a judge for the International Emmys, and Vice Chair of the Mentoring Committee of the Women's Leadership Board at Harvard's JFK School of Government.

Would you ever abandon Jesus or your faith? There is a motivation inside all of us that you need to know about. Today's podcast with pastors Stephen Mizell, Sheryl Daughety, and Wendy Korbusieski uncovers the motivation for self-preservation and why you need to be aware of it in your own life. Luke 22:39–46
The 3 Big Questions We're Answering: 1. How can we navigate feelings of guilt and responsibility when a friend struggles with addiction or unhealthy behaviors? 2. What role does being present play in supporting friends who may need help, and how can we create a safe space for them to reach out? 3. How do we balance our own well-being with the desire to help others, especially when faced with difficult relationships?

What a treat to have Dr. Tabatha Barber, author of the best-selling book Fast To Faith, on the podcast. She explained that our bodies function like a chemistry experiment. When we think in a certain way, we produce chemicals that can have positive or negative effects. I don't know about you, but I do find it shocking that the thoughts I think can create chemical messengers in my body that can heal me or harm me. You have so much more power than you realize! We also discussed a topic near and dear to my heart, JOY. Where's your joy? If we put everyone else first, that will steal your happiness. Dr. T. explained that we get caught up in the lie that taking care of ourselves is selfish. She said that she felt God tell her that caring for herself wasn't selfish but SELF PRESERVATION. Dr. Tabatha shared simple tips that can help you to change your mindset and increase your daily joy. Please enjoy part one of this conversation and join us next week when we talk about 20-minute or less dinners, fasting, and her lifelong battle with depression. ______ Young Living Here's the link to my favorite essential oil kit from Young Living!

I first heard about it from Dr. Mark Hyman, and even though it was a bit of a splurge compared to what I usually spend, I'm so glad I invested. Every time I change the filter and see all the gunk it collects, I smile, knowing it's doing a great job keeping my air clean! And I'm so happy that all that gunk isn't going into my body ;) Click here to purchase: https://airdoctorpro.com/?oid=17&affid=6165 ______ About Dr. Tabitha Barber Dr. Tabatha Barber is a doctor, author, speaker, and devoted Jesus-lover, as well as a proud mom and grandma.

As Christ followers, Yahweh commands us to humbly embrace self-sacrifice, not self-preservation.
In this episode, we dive deep into the psychological layers of the Enneagram's three instincts: Self-Preservation, Social, and Sexual. We explore the profound influence of parenting dynamics on the dominant instinct, uncovering how caregivers shape our instinctual survival strategies.How does a parent's role reinforce or distort an instinct's expression? Why do some of us become hyper-independent while others seek belonging at all costs? And what happens when our core needs feel unmet?

Charleston White is trending again, and Ern and Iso are here to unpack it all!
Ok so hear me out here, this topic may sound odd yet this theme came up a few times times in the past week. Once in session with a client and again at Women's group on Wednesday. Women expressing their concern that perhaps certain tendencies indicated that they, themselves, could potentially have narcissistic traits. And yes, Narcissism is an overused & oversaturate term presently yet it DOES exist and it is NOT the same as being overly self concerned due to early life trauma. That's my take and I wanted to share it. On this solo episode I offer my thoughts on why many Women come to be hyper self focused and preoccupied with self preservation as a survival technique resulting from traumatic events. We can come to believe that other's feelings, actions, and moods are due to us because that was the fear we had when our environment as a child was unpredictable & unstable. Or if we overly worry about things working out for us, it's because we've been hurt in the past, not because we're selfish. This and more is discussed and of course an oracle card pull. Nature Whispers Oracle Cards; https://blueangelonline.com/shop/card-decks/oracle-cards/natures-whispers/* Women Waken Wednesdays will be held weekly on Wednesdays at 6pm PST starting in February! This is a virtual Women's group I'm holding for my beautiful listeners. I would love for you to join!

The Mountain E11 — We've learned that mountains in the Hebrew Bible often become a space where Heaven and Earth overlap and human beings must choose between self-preservation or surrender and trust in God. The story builds our hope and expectation for a faithful intercessor on the mountain who can mediate God's blessings to the people below. As we turn to the New Testament, gospel writer Matthew is ready to spotlight who that faithful mountaintop intercessor is. In this episode, Jon and Tim walk through seven stories in the Gospel of Matthew where Jesus prays, teaches, does miracles, and more—all on mountains.View more resources on our website →Timestamps Chapter 1: Theme Recap and Overview of Matthew's Seven Mountains (0:00-17:42)Chapter 2: The Mountains of Testing and Teaching (17:42-29:44)Chapter 3: Two Mountains of Prayer and Feeding, Plus One of Transfiguration (29:44-42:15)Chapter 4: Mountains of Apocalypse and Commissioning (42:15-55:16)Official Episode TranscriptView this episode's official transcript.Referenced ResourcesJesus on the Mountain: A Study in Matthean Theology by Terence DonaldsonCheck out Tim's library here.You can experience our entire library of resources in the BibleProject app, available for Android and iOS.Show Music“Dreams Come True” by Drips Zacheer“Moonlite” by Nokiaa & Deauxnuts“Go Slow” by little blueBibleProject theme song by TENTSShow CreditsProduction of today's episode is by Lindsey Ponder, producer, and Cooper Peltz, managing producer.
