Photo: Alaska Native Medical Center in May 2026. (Courtesy Alaska Native Tribal Health Consortium) The Indian Health Service officially handed ownership of the state’s biggest tribal hospital, the Alaska Native Medical Center, to the Alaska Native Tribal Health Consortium, as Alaska Public Media’s Rachel Cassandra reports. The transfer happened on August 24, according to the consortium. ANTHC CEO Natasha Singh, a Stevens Village tribal citizen from Fairbanks, says the transfer is the result of decades of advocacy. “This marks a historic achievement. It advances tribal self-determination in healthcare, and it’s achieved through the direct advocacy by Alaska tribal leaders.” Singh says, beyond practical implications, the symbolism of ownership is powerful. She says it is rare that tribes truly have self-governance over something so critical to their lives. “You don’t see it in management of our traditional territories or our fish resources. You don’t see it in education and public safety, but you see it in healthcare. Having this ability to control our future is allowing us to address the historical impacts of colonialism.” Singh says the hospital endured decades of underinvestment from the federal government and the transfer will allow the hospital to pursue funding only available to tribally owned facilities. Wilson Justin is a shareholder of the Ahtna Regional Corporation and has advocated for the rights of Indigenous people in the health care system since the 1990s. He says the ownership transfer is momentous. “It’s been a long wait, and I really appreciate the fact that it’s finally occurring. We’ve been waiting for it for half a generation, basically.” He says he hopes that the transfer allows the hospital to strengthen healthcare for Indigenous Alaskans across the state, especially for smaller tribes. The Little Colorado River, a tributary of the Colorado River, flows during the springtime through the Navajo Nation near Cameron, Arizona. (Photo: Gabriel Pietrorazio) The Navajo Nation Council has taken a major step toward protecting one of its most precious water resources. KJZZ's Gabriel Pietrorazio has more on the recent measure that formally recognizes the Confluence – where the Colorado and Little Colorado rivers meet – as a sacred site under tribal law. Doing so formally documents what Navajos already know – the spiritual and natural significance of where these two life-giving rivers converge. This information may be used to potentially deter future commercial development by industries like hydropower or dams. Erik Stansfield testified on behalf of the tribe's Historic Preservation Office. “When that comes forward, we can show what impairment of those resources look like.” He likens the Confluence to its council chambers, which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. “Like the murals in this room, changing that would be an impairment to the sort of historical and cultural importance of this place. It’s very much the same with the plants and animals, water quality and offerings that have been made at that place. We detail that out, and that helps us kind of defend this area.” Ratified Indian Treaty 70. And on this day in 1815, leaders from eight Native Nations signed the Treaty of Spring Wells with the United States near Detroit. The agreement formally restored peace following the War of 1812 and returned certain rights and possessions Native Nations held before the war. The treaty involved the Wyandot, Delaware, Seneca, Shawnee, Miami, Chippewa, Ottawa, and Potawatomi Nations. Get National Native News delivered to your inbox daily.

What do you do when the funding that anchored your HR transformation disappears unexpectedly? For Seneca Polytechnic, a public college with 44,000 students in the greater Toronto area, the answer was redesigning the transformation itself. In this episode, we speak with Diana Mohan, Executive Director of Transformation and Change at Seneca Polytechnic — a 2026 HR Pacesetter Award winner — about how her team chose to continue forward rather than press pause when regulatory changes created a structural deficit across Canada's higher education sector. Diana shares how Seneca's HR team embraced AI to totally change how HR operates and scale HR services. Their approach began with listening, building trust and capability across the team, and empowering people at every level to create new AI use cases. The result has not only been more efficient service delivery and a better employee experience—it's been a strategic shift to an insight-driven, advisory HR function. Diana Mohan is a transformation specialist and trusted advisor specializing in over a decade of organizational strategy, AI adoption, and the future of work. With a career spanning Deloitte, Kearney, and executive leadership roles, she has helped many organizations translate bold ideas into practical transformation programs, enabling leaders to navigate uncertainty, accelerate change, and prepare for what's next.

Ryan Holiday has introduced millions of people to Stoicism. But is what he teaches about success actually consistent with what the ancient Stoics taught?In this episode, I take a closer look at several of Holiday's claims about success—not to tear him down, but to test those ideas against the philosophy itself.We explore why Stoic success cannot be measured purely by outcomes, what the Stoics actually meant by preferred indifferents, why making more money isn't necessarily the Stoic choice, and a revealing passage from Seneca's Letter 95that raises a larger problem with the way Stoicism is sometimes presented today.Because Stoicism isn't fundamentally about becoming more effective at getting what you want.It asks a much harder question:Is what you want actually worth wanting?Ryan Holiday gets some things right. Other ideas, I argue, are incomplete. And in at least one case, returning to the original Stoic text tells a very different story.A successful life and a good life are not necessarily the same thing.The Stoics were concerned with the latter.

Seneca lived through illness, exile, and the brutal reign of Nero. In today's episode, Ryan shares three of the most powerful ideas Seneca learned from those experiences and why they can change the way you live.

On this episode of All Things Wildfire, OP sits down with Stuart Landesberg, Founder and CEO of Seneca, to explore how autonomous firefighting aircraft could change wildfire initial attack. Seneca is developing autonomous aerial suppression systems designed to launch rapidly, navigate toward new ignitions, identify fire using onboard sensors and AI, and deliver water, foam or other firefighting agents while a fire is still small. Stuart walks us through Seneca's five-aircraft Strike Team, how multiple aircraft coordinate suppression, what happens in high winds, nighttime operations and how autonomous systems can work alongside existing firefighters and traditional aerial resources rather than replace them. We also discuss one of the biggest milestones yet for autonomous wildfire response: Aspen Fire Protection District becoming the first U.S. fire department to acquire Seneca's AI-driven autonomous aerial suppression system. The conversation goes beyond initial attack into structure protection, mop-up, hidden hot spots, wildfire insurance, HOAs and whether rapid-response technology could eventually become another factor insurers consider when evaluating community wildfire risk.

Some mornings, the first voice you hear is a prosecutor. It lists what you did badly, what you did not finish and what you should have become by now.This guided Stoic morning practice helps you take one honest mistake, separate the facts from the verdict you added, and test that verdict against what you would say to someone you care about. It draws on Seneca's nightly self-review and Epictetus's distinction between events and our judgements about them.Being fair to yourself does not mean pretending nothing happened. It means keeping the fact and dropping the attack.Free 7-Day Stoic Challenge: stoicchallenge.coThe Stoic Vault: stoicvault.com

Reporting season is done and dusted for another six months. And as my colleagues have pointed out in their respective wrap-ups, for all the angst heading in, Australian companies came out of it in better shape than many expected. The backdrop, however, is a different story. Bond yields have pushed higher, the consumer is weakening, inflation remains sticky, and uncertainty is the only certainty on the horizon. If you had to sum it up in one line: it's tough out there. We kick off this two-part reporting season wrap-up of Buy Hold Sell with the small caps, and in light of the doom and gloom, we asked our guests to bring a positive insight they took from the season. For Ben Richards of Seneca, it was the breadth of the market, with the Small Ordinaries rising 6% while the ASX 200 remained broadly flat. For Steve Johnson from Forager Funds, it was the return to form for software companies - reliable revenue, improving margins, and the SaaS apocalypse narrative finally creating some discipline in the space. We unpack six small-cap stocks in this episode, the ones who were solid from the ones who were sold off, and sort out the winners form the losers (plus a few bonus picks). Keep an eye out for our next episode with Tom Stelzer covering the large caps.

“Send Coach John a message”This is a classic post from Seneca the Younger (@SenecaQuote) where my connecting thought when I reposted it was this:  Coach John Daly (@coachtosuccess) “Again, so much wisdom from so long ago that still helps us today…”  I am amazed that from so long ago there have been clues left that humans still have trouble connecting with. The historic gem is from Marcus Aurelius - “ Do not disturb yourself by imagining your whole life at once.”  Wow.. I know I need to see where I'm at and see what's next and not try to have my entire future figured out. I think this is something all of us can do, connect with things that people have shared from the past that we can use today to make our lives better.  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. **

This episode examines wealth, desire, and the freedom that comes from needing less.Seneca warns that fortune's gifts often become traps, because external success can deepen dependence rather than satisfy the soul.Anthony de Mello sharpens the same insight: many of our chains are imaginary, formed by false ideas about what we need before we can truly live.If you'd like to continue the practice, you might also find this Micro Morning Meditation helpful:☀️ Micro Morning Meditation: You're Free Alreadyhttps://whatisstoicism.substack.com/p/micro-morning-meditation-youre-free Hosted on Acast.

Do you need to know that you can live vegan forever before you take one action today?Last week, we talked about practical uncertainty in a vegan practice: restaurant plans, backup meals, and the possibility of ending up with romaine lettuce and French fries for dinner.This week, we go one level deeper.What happens when you ask your future self to guarantee that you will follow through perfectly for the rest of your life?Michele often hears people say, “I'm not like you. I don't stick with things. I don't have discipline.”That's usually not even true..In this episode:Why commitment is a direction—not a prediction or guaranteeHow uncertainty can make behavior change more curious, experimental, and even more funThe three certainty traps from Simone Stolzoff's book How to Not Know: comfort, hubris, and controlWhy “I could never” is a remarkably confident prediction about a future that has not happenedA little Stoic encouragement from Seneca and Marcus AureliusWhy “Can I do this forever?” is an unfair test for someone deciding what to eat on TuesdayHow coaching helps us work with the person we actually are instead of waiting to become an imaginary, perfectly disciplined personYour September ExperimentComplete these three sentences:For September, I am committed to __________.Right now I do not need to know __________.This week, I am going to learn or practice __________.Keep the commitment meaningful, but make the experiment small enough to give you real information. At the end, you do not need to give yourself a grade. Ask what worked, what did not, and what you would like to try next.Not knowing is not a problem. It means the answer is still open—and an open answer gives you room to learn, change, and surprise yourself.You can be serious about your values and curious about your methods.  You can be committed without being certain.Book mentioned:How to Not Know: The Value of Uncertainty in a World That Demands Answers by Simone StolzoffSubscribe & Review:If you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe and leave a review on your favorite podcast platform.

Stoic Lessons for Men Over 40, 50 & 60Episode SummarySome of the most important battles you'll ever fight aren't happening around you.They're happening within you.Between fear and courage. Discipline and comfort. Acceptance and resistance. Seeking approval and trusting yourself. And ultimately, between the man you've been and the man you're trying to become.In this Mindset Academy Monday episode of the Over 40 Alpha Podcast, Funk Roberts explores nine internal battles every man must learn to face, using lessons inspired by the Stoic philosophers Marcus Aurelius, Epictetus and Seneca.Stoicism isn't about becoming emotionless, shutting people out or trying to handle everything alone. Funk explains why strong men still need Brotherhood, family, friends, mentors, coaches, and sometimes professional help. The difference is that while others can stand beside you, there are certain internal battles they cannot win for you.You'll learn how to deal with failure without allowing it to define you, handle being misunderstood, process loss, make difficult decisions without certainty, confront your own weaknesses, live with uncertainty, and stop handing other people control over your confidence.And ultimately, you'll discover why the greatest battle is deciding which man you're building through the choices you make every day.Because after 40, 50 and 60, you have something your younger self didn't have:Experience.You've succeeded. You've failed. You've lost people. You've made mistakes. You've watched plans fall apart. And you've hopefully gained wisdom along the way.The question now is:What are you going to do with that wisdom?What You'll LearnWhy your greatest battles often happen within youWhat Marcus Aurelius, Epictetus and Seneca can teach modern menThe difference between healthy solitude and isolationWhy failure doesn't make you a failureHow to stop needing everyone to understand your decisionsWhy Stoicism does NOT mean suppressing grief or emotionHow to make difficult decisions when you don't have certaintyWhy confronting your own weaknesses is essential for growthThe difference between preparing for the future and obsessing over itHow seeking approval gives other people control over your confidenceWhy your everyday choices are constantly building your characterThe Stoic question that can change how you handle difficult situations: “What is actually within my control?Join The Over 40 Alpha Brotherhood Today - https://www.over40alpha.com/

Can Ancient Philosophy Teach Us How to Succeed? | Tom Morris on Aristotle, Stoicism & Living WellWhat does it actually mean to succeed in life? And could Aristotle, the Stoics and other ancient thinkers have better answers than our modern obsession with money, status and achievement?In this episode, Anya Leonard speaks with Tom Morris, public philosopher, former Notre Dame professor and bestselling author of If Aristotle Ran General Motors. Together they explore what happens when ancient philosophy leaves the classroom and enters everyday life: from business and leadership to personal success, politics and the search for meaning.Drawing on Aristotle, Seneca, Epictetus, Marcus Aurelius and others, Tom challenges conventional ideas of success and offers a deeper vision rooted in developing our talents, helping others and pursuing genuine human flourishing.The conversation also explores the extraordinary modern revival of Stoicism, whether we can separate great ideas from the flaws of the people who held them, and how ancient concepts of virtue, community and responsibility might help us navigate the divisions of modern society.Key Topics:Why ancient philosophy still speaks to modern problemsWhat happened when Tom brought Aristotle into corporate AmericaWhy success isn't simply about money, power or statusAristotle, eudaimonia and the meaning of human flourishingHow to find the useful “gold nuggets” in ancient philosophyShould we reject thinkers whose values don't match our own?Philosophy, patriotism and the search for shared valuesCan ancient wisdom help us move beyond political extremes?Why Stoicism has become a worldwide phenomenonThe forgotten philosophical traditions we should rediscoverTimestamps:00:00 – Introduction01:00 – From philosopher to corporate America05:03 – Why ancient wisdom connects with people10:53 – Our hunger for meaningful ideas14:08 – What is true success?16:13 – The Seven C's of Success17:52 – Eudaimonia & human flourishing18:46 – If Aristotle Ran General Motors20:13 – “Cherry-picking” ancient wisdom24:04 – Can we learn from flawed thinkers?28:07 – Philosophy, patriotism & shared values32:17 – Can philosophy overcome division?42:11 – Why Stoicism is booming46:38 – Stoicism & political division49:25 – Can individuals change society?53:29 – Finding the middle ground58:54 – What lies beyond Stoicism?1:00:30 – Final thoughtsWhat does success mean to you?

Before the first message, headline, or demand, practise the Stoic discipline of attention. This guided meditation introduces prosochē: noticing where the mind has gone and returning before an impression becomes an automatic judgement or action. It draws on Marcus Aurelius, Meditations 7.29, and Seneca, Letters 13.4. The sound, body, breath, and one-word labelling sequence is a modern guided adaptation, not a reconstructed ancient ritual.

This episode reflects on what happens when life interrupts our carefully arranged plans.The Stoic reserve clause—“if nothing prevents me”—helps us plan without pretending the future belongs to us. Shakespeare, Seneca, and Suzuki Shōsan deepen the point by bringing death into view, not as a morbid fixation, but as a reminder that even ordinary days are not guaranteed.

What happens when you hit every goal you set and still feel like something is off? In this episode of Be The Leader, Jeramiah Solven turns 40 and takes apart the way he measured success for two decades — achievement after achievement, each one supposed to fill a hole that only got bigger. As Seneca put it, life is long if you know how to use it.Jeramiah walks through the Conquer Wheel of Life, the nine-dimension framework he has used since 2013 and refined through Ranger Regiment commands and years of coaching high performers: health and fitness, finances, friends and family, romance, spirituality, business and career, wisdom and personal growth, the art of living, and materialism. For each one he gives the single lesson he never wants to forget, with the stories that taught it — the operation that broke him, the mentor who put him back together, the boy and the puzzle, and the funeral test he uses to decide what actually matters.The trap he names is the one most high achievers never see: achievement in your strong areas masks the areas you are neglecting. Chasing more in business can hide the fact that you are failing in your marriage. Whether you are 30, 40, or 50 and winning on paper while something underneath feels off, this episode gives you a way to grade every area honestly and fix the flat spoke that is slowing everything else down.Take the free Conquer Wheel of Life Audit: https://conquer-wheel-of-life.netlify.app

With enough practice, Seneca said, he found he could think anywhere. He could find stillness and peace anywhere.

You can't do this job alone, and one of the things that you should seek out in life is strong mentors, people you can ask hard questions, get hard answers and learn from their experiences. In this episode, we break down the importance of mentors, and I take the time to discuss some of the really important mentors of my life. In addition, we have a great quote from the Roman philosopher Seneca, as well as a study of one of the great early basketball coaches, the one they called Mr. Iba . . .

This episode uses Seneca's image of the road to ask whether we are moving with purpose or merely following the crowd. A clear destination helps us resist distraction, while Epictetus shows where our attention truly belongs: on our judgments, choices, desires, and actions. The Stoic task is to be cautious with what depends on us and confident toward what does not

We usually explain regret as knowing better but lacking discipline. This episode argues something more useful: in a hot state, the values on your internal scoreboard change.I connect Epictetus with hot-cold empathy gaps, self-control replication research and implementation intentions. Then I give you a four-minute handover note: one specific if-then plan, written while you can still see clearly, for the version of you who will not realise their judgement has changed.Sources and further reading:- Epictetus, Discourses 1.28- Seneca, Letters 76.34-35- George Loewenstein, “Hot-Cold Empathy Gaps and Medical Decision Making” (2005)- Hagger et al., “A Multilab Preregistered Replication of the Ego-Depletion Effect” (2016)- Peter Gollwitzer and Paschal Sheeran, “Implementation Intentions and Goal Achievement” (2006)- Keith Stanovich, Richard West and Maggie Toplak, work on myside bias and rational thinking Free 7-Day Stoic Challenge: stoicchallenge.coThe Stoic Vault: stoicvault.com

Trade Up Your Media: Stop Infotainment & Read for Real ChangeThe speaker discusses feeling unsatisfied by scrolling and "infotainment," which blurs information and entertainment and scatters attention with addictive but unfulfilling content. They propose a "trading up" process: choosing higher-quality media and, when possible, moving from digital to physical formats (e.g., newsletter to book, YouTube video to film or documentary, lower-quality authors to higher-quality ones) to be more engaged rather than passive. They argue that despite easy access to great minds like Einstein and Seneca, shared enlightenment is limited because consumption doesn't translate into transformation. Citing Tim Ferriss on declining book sales since ChatGPT and Derek Sivers on life-changing sentences found deep in books, they emphasize that real change requires focus, effort, and presence, and note that reading physical material reduces the willpower drain of digital distractions.00:00 Doomscrolling Dissatisfaction01:10 Infotainment and Attention01:36 Trading Up Your Media02:32 From Information to Transformation02:56 AI and the Collapsing Info Market03:35 Life Changing Ideas Need Depth04:10 Printing Podcasts to Focus04:33 Physical vs Digital Reading05:28 Choose Better Inputs#DeepWork #Focus #MediaDiet

While the Greek and Roman philosophy of Stoicism has been around for millennia, author and media strategist Ryan Holiday is bringing its teachings to a modern audience by way of his popular books and his podcast, “The Daily Stoic.” He says ancient writings by the likes of Seneca, Marcus Aurelius, and Epictetus resonate in times that feel especially chaotic. Kara and Ryan talk about why young men in particular seem drawn to Stoicism and what powerful figures in the worlds of tech, MAGA politics, and the man-o-sphere get wrong about its teachings.

The most feared striker in MMA history spent this conversation talking about calm.Before his first fight in Japan, Bas Rutten wrote one letter on each fist with a marker: R, for rustig, Dutch for relaxed. He'd found out that morning his opponent was 33 pounds heavier, the round was thirty minutes long, and there were no rules he recognised. Mid-fight he was calm enough to overhear two spectators in the front row discussing a house move, and that was when he noticed the two voices in him. The aggressive one, and the one that kept him still.He retired without losing any of his last 22 fights and credits the whole run to that discovery.We talk about why the relaxed fighter beats the aggressive one nine times out of ten, the skin disease and asthma that made him the outcast of his school and which he now calls a blessing, the difference between anger and aggression, the single line that ended his drinking, and where Stoicism and the Catholic faith he returned to line up almost exactly.He also walks through the practices he runs daily: the pre-fight question "what's the worst thing that can happen?", the friend test for anger, and an evening examination of conscience he has kept for twelve years that Seneca describes almost word for word.Follow Bas Rutten:YouTube: youtube.com/user/OfficialBasRuttenInstagram: @basruttenmmaWebsite: basrutten.comThe O2Trainer, the breathing device he invented: o2trainer.comHis MMA Workout audio, the striking tape I mention my friend Joel wearing out: o2trainer.com/products/bas-rutten-s-mixed-martial-arts-workout-dvdCompanion article and full show notes: stoichandbook.co/bas-rutten-staying-calm Free 7-Day Stoic Challenge: stoicchallenge.coThe Stoic Vault: stoicvault.com

Homer’s Odyssey, a 12,000-line, nearly 3,000-year-old epic poem, is one of the foundational texts of Western literature. (It’s also one of the oldest surviving sequels!) It has inspired a list of movies as varied as Stanley Kubrick‘s 2001: A Space Odyssey, the Coen brothers’ O Brother, Where Art Thou?, and The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie. But there haven’t been very many straight screen adaptations of its full story. Christopher Nolan’s The Odyssey is just the second full-length feature film adaptation of Homer’s Odyssey ever made. It is 173 minutes long. It reportedly cost $250 million to make. And it is currently the No. 1 movie in the world, having grossed $666.7 million in just 12 days in theaters. This hour, rock star classicist and translator Emily Wilson joins us to talk Homer, Nolan, and everything in between. Plus: We impanel a full Nose to parse and dissect the movie as only the Nose can.

This episode reflects on the shortness of life without turning it into panic. Oliver Burkeman's “four thousand weeks” gives us a blunt measure of our limits, while Seneca's story of Julius Canus shows how calm can survive even under the shadow of death. The Stoic point isn't to master time or escape mortality, but to stop wasting what remains on denial, anxiety, or impossible self-optimization.Since we can't know how many weeks are left, the task is to inhabit the present with attention, courage, and dignity.

Books That Matter for Photographers: Elizabeth Gilbert's ‘Big Magic' — Recalibrating Your Relationship with Fear While Living a Bold, Creative Life.Fresh off a month in Botswana, Richard tackles Big Magic by Elizabeth Gilbert for the 'Books That Matter' series, and makes the case that fear isn't the enemy of creativity: it's a necessary ingredient. Seneca, mall cops, perfectionism, and why fear is just plain boring, all in service of one idea: stop waiting to feel ready and make the next frame anyway.Big Magic (2015) is Elizabeth Gilbert's book on creativity and fear, arguing the two aren't opposites but constant companions, so the goal isn't to eliminate fear but to keep it out of the driver's seat. Organized loosely around courage, permission, persistence, trust, and letting go of perfectionism.Notable Links:Big MagicElizabeth Gilbert WebsiteBooks That Matter: Episode 106 — Stephen Pressfield and 'The War of Art'Books That Matter: Episode 114 — John Szarcowski and 'The Photographer's Eye'*******MUENCH WORKSHOPS GIVEAWAY** Win a free workshop with me to Bosque del Apache, New Mexico in January, 2027.

People fall prey to the same traps—the ones that have existed since the days of Seneca and Marcus Aurelius, indeed for all time.
