Is it really possible for one person to make a dent in the suffering of the world? In this episode Thom explains why the most powerful contribution begins with ending our own suffering and aligning with the Unified Field through Vedic Meditation. He traces the way everyday gossip, blame and negativity ripple out into global conflict, and how twenty four hour bliss quietly reverses that trend from the inside out. Listen in for a radically practical reframing of peace, responsibility and your role in the evolution of consciousness.Episode Highlights[00:45] Q - How can individuals relieve world suffering?[01:11] A - Ending Personal Suffering to Help the World[04:05] Living in Twenty Four Hour Bliss[07:10] The Seagull and the Stolen Eggs[10:00] Where Global Conflict Really Begins[13:30] Why War Never Delivers Real Peace[16:49] Ending Gossip with Dignity and Silence[20:22] Choosing Beauty and Generosity Over Hate[23:22] Silent Presence as a Gift to PeaceYou can also watch this episode on YouTube here: https://youtu.be/EqbrHWEtwakUseful Linksinfo@thomknoles.com  https://thomknoles.com/https://www.instagram.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.facebook.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.youtube.com/c/thomknoleshttps://thomknoles.com/ask-thom-anything/ Registration is now open for Thom's only rounding retreat for 2026, in Sedona from May 21-25.This is your one and only opportunity this year for deep rest, stress release and consciousness expansion through industrial-strength meditation, along with twice-daily knowledge sessions with Thom.You'll enjoy delicious retreat-friendly meals and the beauty and healing powers of the Red Rocks of Sedona. Register before February 28th and you'll save $500 on your retreat fee. You can find out more at thomknoles.com/sedona.

If you've ever felt like your body is fighting you no matter how “perfect” your nutrition or workouts are, this episode will feel like a deep exhale. Today, I'm sitting down with Soraya Rufener, one of our coaches at Vital Spark, to share the story behind the safety, trust, and results her clients feel from day one. Soraya isn't just highly credentialed as a registered nurse and functional health coach. She's lived through chronic dieting, body distrust, and the exhausting pressure to always “do more.” She started dieting at 13, spent years stuck in restriction cycles, and did everything diet culture promised would work. And yet, nothing was actually healing.In this conversation, we unpack why willpower wasn't the problem, how postpartum healing changed everything, and what rebuilding a body really requires physically, mentally, and emotionally. Soraya shares the moment she stopped punishing her body and learned how to support it instead. We talk about why healing is layered, why consistency matters more than intensity, and how nervous system safety changes outcomes. She also opens up about how her lived experience reshaped the way she coaches postpartum moms and high-achieving women today. Most importantly, we explore what she refuses to repeat from diet culture—and why coaching women differently matters. If you're exhausted, frustrated, or quietly wondering why nothing seems to work anymore, this episode will remind you that you're not broken.You're unsupported. Time Stamps: (1:17) Our Incredible Coach Soraya (6:02) Early Teen Soraya (9:17) Finding Bodybuilding (15:02) The Food Noise (17:09) Shifting To The Healing Phase (19:55) The Mental Side of Healing (22:47) 3 Kids In 4 Years and The Postpartum Journey (31:23) Our Bodies Aren't The Enemy (34:15) Where To Find Soraya---------------------Find Out More Information on Vital Spark Coaching---------------------Follow @vanessagfitness on Instagram for daily fitness tips & motivation. ---------------------Download Our FREE Metabolism-Boosting Workout Program---------------------Join the Women's Metabolism Secrets Facebook Community for 25+ videos teaching you how to start losing fat without hating your life!---------------------Click here to send me a message on Facebook and we'll see how I can help or what best free resources I can share!---------------------Interested in 1-on-1 Coaching with my team of Metabolism & Hormone Experts?

Susan Guthrie welcomes special guest Michelle Farris for a powerful conversation about codependency, the hidden dynamic beneath many struggling relationships. Michelle is a licensed psychotherapist, codependency expert, and anger management specialist. Together, they explore what codependency really is, why it often begins in childhood, and how it can quietly shape both a marriage and the way a divorce unfolds. Susan and Michelle unpack the patterns of overgiving, overfunctioning, and self-sacrifice that leave so many people depleted and resentful, often without fully understanding why. They also explore why anger can erupt during divorce, how long-standing relationship patterns repeat when left unexamined, and what it takes to begin building boundaries and self-trust moving forward. This conversation is especially meaningful for anyone who feels stuck in one-sided relationships, struggles to say no, or wonders why they keep giving more than they receive. It offers an honest, practical look at how recognizing codependency can change not only your divorce, but everything that comes after it. What You'll Learn Codependency is not about kindness. It is a pattern of overfunctioning to feel secure, often leaving you exhausted and resentful Why anger during divorce is often stored pain from years of saying yes when you meant no, and how to channel it constructively The difference between being nice and being clear, and why self-advocacy is essential for a healthy divorce process How overgiving, avoiding conflict, or agreeing too quickly can cost you emotionally and financially during divorce Why identifying your boundaries, triggers, and non-negotiables is key to approaching divorce from a grounded and empowered place About the Guest Michelle Farris is a psychotherapist, codependency expert, and anger management specialist with a passion for helping people break free from codependent patterns and manage emotions with confidence. She's been featured in several online publications and podcasts, known for her down-to-earth approach and expertise.

Alcohol consumption in the United States is declining. Gallup reports that only 54% of Americans now drink — the lowest level recorded in decades — and nearly half of Americans say they are actively trying to drink less.On the surface, this sounds like clear progress.But in this episode, Molly explores an important question raised by Dr. Adi Jaffe in a recent article: Are we truly becoming more emotionally resilient… or are we simply swapping one escape route for another?As cannabis use rises alongside declining alcohol consumption, it's worth examining whether substitution equals transformation — or whether real change requires something deeper.This episode unpacks the cultural shift away from alcohol, the rise in cannabis use, and the critical distinction between behavioral change and emotional growth.In This Episode, You'll Learn:The latest statistics on declining alcohol consumption in the U.S.Why cannabis use is increasing as alcohol use declinesWhat research says about cannabis use and alcohol reductionThe difference between substitution and emotional resilienceWhy simply replacing alcohol doesn't necessarily change your relationship with discomfortHow psychological dependence operates beneath surface-level behavior changeThe core beliefs that often drive alcohol useA simple self-reflection exercise to assess your own coping patternsKey Statistics Discussed54% of Americans report drinking alcohol (Gallup 2025)Nearly half of Americans are trying to drink less65% of Gen Z plans to cut down or abstain from alcoholApproximately 178,000 alcohol-related deaths occur annually in the U.S.41% of young adults report cannabis use in the past year29% report past-month cannabis use10.8% report daily cannabis useAbout 3 in 10 cannabis users are at risk of Cannabis Use DisorderThe Core QuestionReducing alcohol is meaningful.But emotional resilience is something deeper.This episode challenges you to consider:If alcohol disappeared tomorrow, what would you reach for?Are you choosing relaxation — or needing escape?Have your behaviors changed… or have your beliefs changed?True transformation happens when you dismantle the belief that you need something outside of yourself to manage your internal state.Resources MentionedDr. Adi JaffeThe Abstinence Myth by Dr. Adi JaffeUnhooked by Dr. Adi JaffeSunnyside mindful drinking app (15-day free trial available)Monitoring the Future (University of Michigan)CDC Cannabis Use DataHarvard Health on cannabis vs. alcohol risksBrown University study on cannabis and alcohol consumptionLow risk drinking guidelines from the NIAAA:Healthy men under 65:No more than 4 drinks in one day and no more than 14 drinks per week.Healthy women (all ages) and healthy men 65 and older:No more than 3 drinks in one day and no more than 7 drinks per week.One drink is defined as 12 ounces of beer, 5 ounces of wine, or 1.5 ounces of 80-proof liquor. So remember that a mixed drink or full glass of wine are probably more than one drink.Abstinence from alcoholAbstinence from alcohol is the best choice for people who take medication(s) that interact with alcohol, have health conditions that could be exacerbated by alcohol (e.g. liver disease), are pregnant or may become pregnant or have had a problem with alcohol or another substance in the past.Benefits of “low-risk” drinkingFollowing these guidelines reduces the risk of health problems such as cancer, liver disease, reduced immunity, ulcers, sleep problems, complications of existing conditions, and more. It also reduces the risk of depression, social problems, and difficulties at school or work. ★ Support this podcast ★

Send a textIn today's episode of Evolve Ventures Tech, we talk about the quiet cost of waiting. So many people believe clarity will arrive first and action will follow, but real life rarely works that way. We share what we see behind the scenes with clients who feel stuck, why hesitation can feel so convincing, and what finally shifts momentum when nothing else seems to help.If you feel stuck, scared, or unsure about your next step, this episode may challenge you more than you expect. Waiting is not neutral. It drains time, energy, and opportunity. Action creates evidence. Evidence creates confidence.Here is a related episode that builds on today's conversation:#453 | What it REALLY Feels Like with High Quality Therapy - https://apple.co/4anaO6dLearn more about:

When we lose sight of what to be thankful for, we start to lose our ability to enjoy our life. When gratitude evades us, joy escapes us and we can slip into cynicism and scarcity. There is no happiness found in scarcity. This meditation hopes to help the listener return to the present moment to find themselves grateful for this breath, this time, this moment, this life.

Welcome to today's ICYMI, where we kick off the week with a quick game-changing tip from one of our guests that you might have missed.  Your to-do list Is lying to you… not everything is urgent, and productivity isn't about doing more. It's about doing what matters most. As Greg McKeown says: “When you prioritize the important over the urgent, you don't just get more done, you get the right things done.” And that's the difference between a busy life and a meaningful one. We're throwing it back to 3 practical steps to master prioritization using principles from productivity minimalism and Essentialism. We cover the Law of Inverse Prioritization, and effective decision-making questions to filter every task and commitment. Listen to our full episode here.

Daily Rituals For Optimal Performance In Key Areas Of Your Life

What if the loneliness you feel is actually proof that you are growing?In this episode, Kevin and Alan unpack a reality most people are not prepared for. As your goals get bigger and your standards rise, fewer people will understand your choices. Drawing from years of business building, client coaching, and their own personal growth journeys, they explain why ambition often creates separation and what it really takes to protect your vision when others question your path.If you have ever felt misunderstood, pressured to slow down, or tempted to shrink your goals to make others comfortable, this conversation will challenge how you see the cost of leveling up.

3 Behaviors You Need To Stop IMMEDIATELY.

In today's episode of Next Level University, hosts Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros challenge a common misconception about success that keeps people stuck longer than they realize. Many focus on outcomes while neglecting the internal growth required to sustain them, which creates cycles of stress, imposter feelings, and fragile confidence. The real leverage point is not what you achieve. It is who you become.If you want more consistency, stronger self-trust, and results that actually last, this episode will shift how you think about personal development and execution at a fundamental level.

Feeling “off” can show up as mood swings, low energy, poor sleep, or that quiet sense of “I don't feel like me lately”. In this episode, Gabrielle Bernstein sits down with Liz Zwillinger, founder of Biologica, the first multivitamin tailored to your hormonal life stage, for a grounded conversation about simple, realistic ways to support yourself through life's changes—especially when stress, hormonal shifts, and the transitions of perimenopause and menopause throw you out of alignment.Rather than chasing perfection or adding to our to-do list, Gabby and Liz explore the power of one gentle daily habit to support hormonal balance, the nervous system, brain, bones, and heart. They discuss why so many women feel dismissed during perimenopause, how to care for the whole woman—not just symptoms—and how consistent, science-backed support can help you feel more steady, calm, and clear. This episode is an invitation to stop white-knuckling your way through and start choosing support that helps you feel like your best self again.Learn more about Biologica and find the multivitamin for your life stage at biologica.comJoin Gabby on her 2026 Time to Trust Tour!

Unwritten Rules Of Communication

Hosts Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros break down a hard truth. Most people are not struggling because they lack potential.

This meditation, inspired by a quote by Steven Pressfield, the author of The War of Art, aims to help us be more mindful of the resistance that is getting in our way so we can push past it and transcend our former selves.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Calm The Bleep Down is a channel and podcast discussing the benefits and adventures that come from a practice of meditation.

Why are young people today reporting the highest levels of anxiety, depression, loneliness, and despair in modern history?Dr. Angela Duckworth is a professor of psychology at the University of Pennsylvania and one of the world's leading voices on grit, self-control, and the science of thriving. In this conversation with Dr. Michael Gervais, Angela reflects on how her thinking about grit has evolved, where it's often misunderstood, and why perseverance without purpose can become harmful instead of helpful.They explore what excellence really looks like behind the scenes. Not the highlight reel, but the long stretch of deliberate practice and repeated effort that most people never see. Angela also reframes passion as something that develops over time, and offers a practical lens for staying committed when enthusiasm fades and outcomes take longer than expected.The conversation expands beyond performance into family life and parenting. They examine the cultural forces shaping today's youth: the rise of social media, the erosion of in-person connection, the displacement of nature, and the unintended consequences of modern parenting. Angela shares what the data actually shows about the mental health crisis, and what we as parents, educators, and leaders can do about it. In this episode, you'll learn:What grit really is, and what it isn't Why excellence comes from high-quality practice over timeHow passion develops slowly, and why it can be treated like a skillHow to stay committed when motivation fadesWhy environments shape kids more than pressure doesWhy young people's happiness has sharply declined since 2010What the research says about anxiety, depression, and loneliness in Gen ZHow screens and social disconnection may be reshaping well-beingPractical ways parents can create environments where kids can truly thrive________________________________________________________Links & ResourcesSubscribe to our Youtube Channel for more conversations at the intersection of high performance, leadership, and wellbeing: https://www.youtube.com/c/FindingMasteryGet exclusive discounts and support our amazing sponsors!
