The American family can find restoration when we establish God as the authority in our homes once more. In this sermon, Pastor Allen Jackson discusses the connection between the Jewish holiday of Passover, Jesus' final supper with His disciples, and our practice of communion—and how all of these, centered around sharing a table, invite God to move in our midst. When we gather around the kitchen table, we have the opportunity to establish who or what has spiritual authority over our homes. Will we let the culture drive our habits and traditions, or will we surrender to God's will? Pastor Allen shares how under the Lord's authority, we find protection, salvation, and deliverance. We've been waiting for the world to change, but God has already given us everything we need to make a difference, starting at our kitchen tables.

Send a textIn this episode of Tuesday Tea, Dominica sits down for a thoughtful conversation with Shackleton group Founder, Ed Gillcrist, about leadership, governance, and what really happens inside organizations once strategy meets reality. Many organizations spend enormous energy building plans, structures, and org charts. But as companies grow and decisions become more complex, the way things actually operate often looks very different from what is written on paper.This conversation explores where leadership, governance, and execution intersect- and what leaders need to understand when decision-making becomes distributed across teams, systems, and increasingly, intelligent technologies.Together, they discuss:• Why organizational charts rarely reflect how decisions are truly made • The difference between leadership, management, and governance • How execution breaks down even in highly capable organizations • What leaders often miss when responsibility becomes unclear • Why thoughtful governance is becoming more important in the age of AIAs technology accelerates and organizations adopt more automated tools and data-driven systems, the question of who ultimately owns decisions becomes more important than ever.This episode is a conversation about responsibility, stewardship, and the evolving role of leadership in complex organizations.Connect with Ed: LinkedInShackleton group If you've been following Dominica's recent exploration into AI governance and leadership in the age of intelligent systems, this discussion offers valuable perspective.Continue the ConversationDominica is also writing about these topics in more depth on Substack.You can join the conversation at: The Governance Era Support the showConnect with Dominica: https://www.instagram.com/dominicalumazar/Interested in being a guest on the show? https://sweetdmarketing.com/tuesday-tea-podcast/This episode is sponsored by Rhythm & Roast Coffee Co.

Ornette Coleman's The Shape of Jazz to Come (1959) may be the most controversial album in jazz history, and one of the most important.In 1959, a broke musician from Fort Worth, Texas arrived in New York City with a plastic saxophone and a band that didn't play by the rules. And EVERYONE had an opinion about it.Jazz legends hated it. Miles Davis said Ornette was "all screwed up inside." Max Roach punched him in the mouth. Dizzy Gillespie said Ornette's music wasn't even jazz. Meanwhile, Leonard Berstein and John Coltrane celebrated him.So what exactly is The Shape of Jazz to Come, and why was it so radical? Jazz pianists Peter Martin and Adam Maness break down every track, from "Lonely Woman" to "Chronology". They dig into harmolodics, free jazz, and how Ornette shaped everyone from Miles Davis (who eventually came around) to the '80s burnout crew, including Wynton Marsalis, who personally recommended this record to Peter.Dig into The Shape of Jazz to Come with us, and learn why this soft spoken saxophonist inspired both criticism and awe.-------------------------------Start your free Open Studio trial for ALLLLL your jazz lesson needs:https://openstudiojazz.com/yhi-------------------------------Related You'll Hear It episodes:Mingus Ah Um: https://youtu.be/XYeRZ0Awui4Giant Steps: https://youtu.be/8umC2yZlPHcKind of Blue: https://youtu.be/ShzSnjP8bSgTime Out: https://youtu.be/-_qPhFSJeQUNina Simone at Town Hall: https://youtu.be/2PDjN5_2y5Q-------------------------------About You'll Hear It:In this popular music series Adam and Peter break down the greatest albums of all time.

Curt Hogg is in Arizona and sniffing around at Milwaukee Brewers camp, with some observations he'd like to share on this episode, hosted by JR Radcliffe. The two Milwaukee Journal Sentinel colleagues discuss the plight of Brandon Woodruff, the Quinn Priester injury, the promise of Kyle Harrison and Brandon Sproat and ... have we ruled out Aaron Ashby as a starter for sure? Plus: The center field picture, some early World Baseball Classic takeaways and where pineapple belongs on the fruit hierarchy.

We are all shaped by the neighborhoods we grew up in, from the cost and conditions of our housing to the bonds we formed within them and whether we had access to parks and grocery stores. And the data bears out that zip codes are more effective predictors of our well-being than our own genetic code. Improving neighborhoods that have been battered by extractive public policies, poverty and unsound housing conditions has been the cornerstone of the community development sector for decades. The sector has progressed in its technical ability to finance projects perceived as risky and at its best has evolved by requiring that redevelopment is rooted in the vision of community residents. Putting community first is the ethos of Neighborhood Allies, a nonprofit community development intermediary with a difference. In this episode of Power Station, I speak with its exceptional leader Presley Gillispie, who brings a full gamut of personal and professional experiences to this endeavor. Its goals, lifting 100,000 Pittsburghers up the socio-economic ladder in the next decade are ambitious, but achievable. And it means everything that Neighborhood Allies sees mental health as foundational to a strong community and actively invests in connecting residents to resources.

EPISODE 684 - Cyndi Brec - THE THERANS SERIES, hidden truths, the weight of untold legends, and the power of preserving the past while daring to shape the futureMy name is Cyndi Brec. I love writing my heroine into dangerous webs of deception while I sip French vanilla iced coffee. I'm an avid reader turned YA fantasy romance writer with a strong background in Recreational Therapy who has penned The Therans Series. I have never thought of myself as an author, more of a storyteller. During my downtime, I started writing while caring for my husband, kids, and extended family. I'm a creative wordsmith who weaves tales that transcend the boundaries of reality—pure storytelling magic enriched by the unique lens of a dyslexic novelist. Ahead of publication, I've snagged several endorsements from notable authors and influencers: Jonas Saul, the bestselling author of the Sarah Roberts Series; Alan Warren, NBC Radio Host/Producer/Author; and Suzy Vadori, Author and critic of the Fountain Series and three-time Aurora Awards Finalist. I have also secured a 5-star rating from Readers' Favorite for The Therans: Secrets Beneath Scars and the second novel in the series, The Therans: Legends Never Die.I'm just a regular gal—storyteller, speaker, and co-host of the P English Literature podcast. I joke around, saying, "I'm a sidekick podcaster interviewing authors and serving book banter." I also speak on ‘Time Management Strategies for Authors Success: Managing Your Minutes,' aiming to inspire fellow authors to live their dreams. I champion pursuing dreams and embracing challenges, refusing to let disabilities hold me back. My faith has grown through resilience and determination.After marrying, I traveled to Europe and many of the States. However, Ohio is my home, where my husband and I have raised two great kids and several energetic dogs. My love of history was enriched by co-owning a 200-year-old historic watermill with Rich for over 20 years, which has fostered an appreciation of historical knowledge and cultivation of The Therans Series. The Watermill is the backdrop to the Theran story world and the creation of fictional creatures.Currently, I am working on an anthology and co-authoring a historical nonfiction book. This book will detail a historic Water Mill, its historical accounts, and the restoration process.Stay epic, write wild, read like it's your superpower, and never stop causing chaos with your words!Air hugs!https://www.inkerspen.com/cyndi-brechttps://cyndibrecauthor.wordpress.com/Support the show___https://livingthenextchapter.com/podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks!https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca

In today's episode, I share why being named Chairman of the Napoleon Hill Institute is both an honor and a responsibility tied directly to my mission of empowering over a billion people to be happy. I break down the four core values that shape my company culture, gratitude, empathy, accountability, and effective communication, and how consistent practice creates energy people want to work around. We also talk about entrepreneurship as the key to solving global challenges, why happiness means making money to help others and have fun, and the story behind my bold new book on removing toxicity from our lives.

Books entertain us but they also build us into the people we are. This conversation with Geoff and Janet Benge is about the kind of books that can change a family for good. In this warm and deeply encouraging episode, Ginny talks with the husband-and-wife team behind the bestselling Christian Heroes Then and Now and Heroes of History series about how true stories form courage, imagination, resilience, and faith, often in ways we don't even notice until years later. Their own story is remarkable too: two unlikely writers from New Zealand—one dyslexic, one once in remedial reading—who went on to write dozens of biographies that have shaped readers around the world. This episode is a beautiful reminder that shared reading is never just educational; it becomes part of the fabric of a home.

Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Our shout-out today goes to George Zeck from Venice, FL. Thanks for your partnership in Project23. We cannot do this without donors like you. Our text today is 1 Corinthians 8:1-3. Now concerning food offered to idols: we know that "all of us possess knowledge." This "knowledge" puffs up, but love builds up. If anyone imagines that he knows something, he does not yet know as he ought to know. But if anyone loves God, he is known by God. — 1 Corinthians 8:1-3 You can be theologically correct—and spiritually careless. Paul opens this section with a warning that cuts against a familiar instinct in believers: the belief that being right automatically makes us faithful. The real danger in a secular culture is not ignorance, but arrogance—truth held without consideration for others. The Corinthians understood that wooden and stone idols were nothing. They knew meat was just meat. Paul doesn't dispute that. He affirms it. But he exposes the problem. Knowledge alone inflates. It creates distance. It feeds superiority. It subtly shifts the question from "What honors God?" to "What am I allowed to do?" Do you see the shift? It is a shift from "He" to "me". But thoughtful "love" for God and others, combined with good theology, does stretch the believer to do some things they would not usually do. Stay humble in moments where pride could be misunderstood. Restrain actions where freedom is allowed. Consider how our accurate theological freedom might adversely affect others. That's why this section of chapter 8 still presses on us today. We may not debate food sacrificed to idols, but many believers still rationalize the so-called "gray areas" of life—places where Scripture allows freedom, yet pride tempts us to lean toward self rather than love. The Corinthians weren't arguing whether idols were real; they were arguing whether their knowledge gave them permission to participate, signal approval, or remain indifferent anyway. In the same way today, the issue is often not personal involvement but endorsement, celebration, or normalization. What God calls sin is reframed as virtue. Sexual immorality is affirmed as love. Abortion is defended as compassion. Same-sex marriage is praised as progress. Drunkenness, pornography, marijuana use, and indulgence are excused as harmless freedoms. Believers may not practice these things themselves, but participation, silence, or celebration can quietly communicate approval. And the defense often sounds spiritual: "I know better." "I'm free in Christ." "This doesn't affect my faith." "I'm not hurting anyone." Paul dismantles that logic. Being right is not the same as being faithful. If knowledge does not lead to love, it has already begun to lead us wrong. Truth without humility hardens hearts. Freedom without love compromises witness. Paul ends with a quiet but profound shift. Maturity is not defined by how much you know about God, but by whether you are known by God. Faithfulness in a pagan world is not measured by how much freedom you can defend, but by how carefully you steward it for the good of others and the glory of God. DO THIS: Before exercising a freedom you believe you have, pause and ask whether it builds others up or subtly elevates yourself. ASK THIS: Where am I more focused on being right than being loving? How might my freedoms affect the conscience or faith of others? Am I using knowledge to serve—or to justify myself? PRAY THIS: Father, guard my heart from pride disguised as conviction. Teach me to hold truth with humility and freedom with love. Shape my life so that it reflects Your heart, not just correct beliefs. Amen. PLAY THIS: "Make Room"

Stijn Schmitz welcomes Douglas MacGregor to the show. Douglas is a retired U.S. Army Colonel and Decorated Combat Veteran. In this in-depth discussion, MacGregor provides a critical analysis of the current geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, particularly focusing on the conflict involving Iran, Israel, and the United States. MacGregor argues that the current military strategy against Iran is fundamentally flawed, with no clear purpose or achievable end state. He suggests that the United States and Israel are attempting to destabilize Iran, but this approach is unlikely to succeed. The colonel emphasizes that Iran’s primary goal is simply to survive, while the U.S. would need to completely conquer the nation – an impossible task given Iran’s size and resilience. The conversation delves into the broader economic implications of the conflict, particularly its impact on global oil markets and supply chains. MacGregor predicts significant economic disruption, with oil prices potentially exceeding $100 per barrel and widespread increases in commodity prices. He highlights the critical importance of resource sovereignty, emphasizing the need for nations to control their fuel, food, fertilizer, and defense supply chains. A key theme of the discussion is the potential acceleration of de-dollarization and the emergence of a new global financial system. MacGregor suggests that the United States and Israel are essentially “fighting against the future” by resisting these inevitable economic shifts. He points to the growing influence of BRICS nations and the increasing interest in alternative currency systems, potentially backed by gold or a basket of precious metals. MacGregor concludes with a stark warning about the destructive nature of current geopolitical strategies, arguing that these “pointless wars” are counterproductive and potentially catastrophic. He calls for more measured, strategic approaches to international relations and economic development, emphasizing the need for stability, long-term planning, and cooperation between governments and private sectors.

Macgregor was commissioned in the Regular Army in 1976 after 1 year at VMI and 4 years at West Point. In 2004, Macgregor retired with the rank of Colonel. In 2020, the President appointed Macgregor to serve as Senior Advisor to the Secretary of Defense, a post he held until President Trump left office. He holds an MA in comparative politics and a PhD in international relations from the University of Virginia. Macgregor is widely known inside the U.S., Europe, Israel, Russia, China and Korea for both his leadership in the Battle of 73 Easting, the U.S. Army's largest tank battle since World War II, and for his ground breaking books on military transformation: Breaking the Phalanx (Praeger, 1997) and Transformation under Fire (Praeger, 2003). Macgregor's recommendations for change in Force Design and “integrated all arms-all effects” operations have profoundly influenced force development in Israel, Russia and China. In 2010, Macgregor traveled to Seoul, Korea to advise the ROK Ministry of Defense on force design. In 2019, Transformation under Fire was selected by Lt. Gen. Aviv Kohavi, Chief of the Israeli Defense Force (IDF), as the intellectual basis for IDF transformation. His fifth book, Margin of Victory: Five Battles that Changed the Face of Modern War from Naval Institute Press is available in Chinese, as well as, English and will soon appear in Hebrew. In 28 years of service Macgregor taught in the Department of Social Sciences at West Point, commanded the 1st Squadron, 4th Cavalry, and served as the Director of the Joint Operations Center at SHAPE during the 1999 Kosovo Air Campaign for which he was awarded the Defense Superior Service medal. In January 2002, at Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld's insistence the USCENTCOM Commander listened to Colonel Macgregor's concept for the offensive to seize Baghdad. The plan was largely adopted, but assumed no occupation of Iraq by U.S. Forces. Macgregor has also testified as an expert witness before the Senate and House Armed Services Committees and appeared as a defense analyst on Fox News, CNN, BBC, Sky News and public radio. He is fluent in German.

Frankie Val hosts another wide ranging episode of Quite Frankly, joined by Matt and Jay for a lively conversation that jumps from absurd headlines to serious cultural reflection. The crew riffs on everything from bizarre science stories and health trends to testosterone, nicotine, and the strange world of modern consumer products. The heart of the episode explores a growing cultural idea that millennials have become numb to crisis after living through nonstop historic events. From Y2K and Columbine to 9/11, the financial crash, and COVID, Frankie walks through the timeline that shaped a generation and asks whether this constant upheaval has fundamentally changed how people react to world events today. The discussion also touches on celebrity culture, the fall of Hollywood influence, and a deeper look at the legacy of Michael Jackson, questioning whether public narratives about powerful figures are always what they seem. Mixing humor, nostalgia, and thoughtful analysis, this episode delivers the signature Quite Frankly blend of sharp commentary, unexpected tangents, and late night conversation that keeps listeners thinking long after the show ends.

One thought can quietly set the tone for your entire day. In Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, hosted by Sayan, we explore how thinking patterns become reactions, reactions become habits, and habits become a life. This episode is for anyone feeling overwhelmed by change, stuck in negative spirals, or wanting to respond more calmly and wisely. Khalda Hashash shares her lived journey of adapting across cultures, learning to lead with emotional intelligence, and building a practical way to shift from automatic reactions to intentional responses. About the Guest: Khalda Hashash is originally from Sudan and now lives in the United States. She is an entrepreneur and leadership consultant, and she earned a master's degree in leadership and communication. She is also a mother of three. Episode Chapter: 00:03:33 – Why this conversation is audio-only and what we're exploring today 00:06:33 – Thoughts → reactions → habits: how a life gets built quietly 00:08:08 – Moving from Sudan to the U.S.: culture shock, language, and overwhelm 00:11:19 – Misconception: “This is just how I am” (and why thinking comes first) 00:14:32 – When your whole world changes in a moment: fear, loss, and uncertainty 00:17:08 – Choosing growth: leadership education and raising kids between cultures 00:19:14 – A practical starting point: self-observation, emotional intelligence, and managing reactions Key Takeaways: Notice the first thought before you address the situation—your reaction starts there. Practice “logic first”: pause and ask, What do I actually know to be true right now? Track your triggers for 1–2 weeks: what consistently irritates you, and what consistently calms you. Shift blame to curiosity: Why am I interpreting this as personal? Build emotional intelligence by managing three things: actions, reactions, and response timing. Remember: positive thinking isn't forced optimism—it's reducing unnecessary negativity. How to Connect With the Guest: https://kashconsulting.us/    Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

What if the most powerful mental health tool you have is the first few minutes of your day? In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, hosted by Sayan, we explore how “Miracle Morning” isn't about perfection—it's about meeting yourself with intention before the world asks anything of you. This conversation is for anyone who wakes up feeling heavy, rushed, or emotionally drained—and wants a simple, doable reset. Renee shares how gratitude, prayer/meditation, and a “future voice” script can gently rewire your morning energy, reduce digital overwhelm, and build momentum one day at a time. About the Guest: Renee Carbone Fleming is the founder of the Badass Queen Movement and host of the Unapologetically Badass podcast.

Episode Chapters: 00:04:24 — Setting the theme: “Miracle Morning” and what this episode will unpack 00:08:24 — The core question: meeting yourself before the world demands anything 00:10:13 — Gratitude as an anchor when life feels heavy 00:11:08 — The biggest misunderstanding: it doesn't need “so much time” 00:13:09 — Why mornings feel emotionally charged (sleep, dread, motivation) 00:15:07 — The “future voice script” that changes mindset fast 00:26:30 — Where to find Rini + book details Key Takeaways: Start with 3 specific gratitude points to shift your internal state before scrolling.

"If you don't measure, you're guessing." —Dr. Ron HunninghakeThis episode is a recording from our February 26, 2026, Lunch & Learn at Riordan Clinic in Wichita.Energy that rises and crashes. Mood changes that feel difficult to explain. Sleep that looks fine on paper but never feels fully restorative. Many people are told their labs are normal, yet they still feel off.This Lunch & Learn is designed for individuals who want a clearer understanding of how hormones and metabolism influence daily vitality.In this session, Dr. Ron Hunninghake and Dr. Drew Rose explore how thyroid patterns, adrenal signaling, insulin dynamics, and nutrient status intersect with energy, mood, and long-term wellness. They discuss why a single lab marker may not always tell the full story and how a more comprehensive review can offer additional context when evaluating metabolic patterns.They also review stress physiology, environmental influences, and the importance of tracking trends over time rather than relying on one isolated result. The emphasis throughout the discussion is on thoughtful measurement, collaborative learning, and individualized decision-making.Learn more about Check Your Health | March 2–13, 2026Available at Wichita and Overland Park locationsEpisode Links and ResourcesExplore integrative services at Riordan ClinicBecome a new co-learnerWatch more Real Health Podcast episodesEpisode Chapters00:00 Welcome and event overview01:18 Why hormones and metabolism matter03:42 Looking beyond a single thyroid marker06:15 Adrenal patterns and stress response08:37 Insulin dynamics and energy regulation10:54 Nutrient status and metabolic support13:22 Environmental and lifestyle considerations15:40 Measurement, monitoring, and next stepsDisclaimerThe information contained in this Lunch & Learn recording and the resources mentioned are for educational purposes only.

Send me a Text Message!At the end of the last episode, I said that our vision is shaped by the stories we hear and even more so, that stories we rehearse. Remember I asked, "What stories do you tell and what stories do you hear?" In this episode, I will share four stories that shape our sight. These four stories are not just run of the mill common narratives. These are four stories about Jesus that have the power to change our life. I don't know which story you have landed on, but perhaps you will find yourself or one of your friends who is stuck somewhere before the fourth story.I'm praying that we all make it to #4!

Wild Sovereign Soul co-founder and guide, Lian, has spent over a decade studying and applying the psychological principle of priming - she explains how your environment shapes your attention and behaviour every day, and how to consciously change what is training your mind, body and identity. This episode is Lian's All The Everything show… her solo space where she dives deeply into a theme that is alive for her, which, if you know her, could be literally anything - explored through the lenses of science, spirituality and story - hence the name of the show! It is created for those who feel called toward a soulful life shaped by meaning, depth, truth, and love… for those who feel unsatisfied with quick answers or surface level takes. This is a rich rabbit hole that Lian journeys through alongside you. She speaks from her own lived experience and unfolding process… while inviting you into your own as you listen. The LIVE making of All The Everything is recorded live on YouTube… to join Lian for the next one: Make sure you're subscribed to our YouTube channel, subscribed to our Moonly News email list and/or are a member of our Facebook group and we'll let you know when the next one is happening. In this episode, Lian explores the powerful principle of priming, the way exposure to words, images, spaces and repetition shapes what we notice, how we interpret events, and even how our bodies respond. She traces the idea from its Latin roots through cognitive science, including research showing how older men immersed in a younger environment showed measurable changes in posture, memory and grip strength, and then widens into myth, from the Lotus Eaters to Persephone, to show how land and culture train identity. She brings it home to the rooms we sit in, the clothes we wear, the pace we keep, and the symbols we wake up to each morning, asking what qualities our spaces repeatedly reinforce, and what future self they are rehearsing. Listen if you scroll late at night without meaning to, walk into certain rooms and feel your shoulders tighten, or sense that your days are shaping you in ways you have not consciously chosen. We'd love to know what YOU think about this week's show. Let's carry on the conversation… please leave a comment wherever you are listening or in any of our other spaces to engage. What you'll receive from this episode: Why exposure to simple cues like language, décor and repetition can alter posture, memory, mood and behaviour without you noticing How the environment of the story of the Lotus Eaters mirrors modern life, and the way comfort and noise can soften longing and dull direction What happens when you deliberately change one sensory element in a daily space, and the identity that begins to form as a result Resources and stuff Lian spoke about: Make sure you're subscribed to our YouTube channel, subscribed to our Moonly News email list and/or are a member of our Facebook group and we'll let you know when the next one is happening.

The future is not moving faster. It is getting noisier.In this episode, futurist and “hope engineer” Nik Badminton joins the podcast to challenge the way we think about disruption, AI and modern leadership. Having advised organisations from global brands to government bodies, Nik teaches leaders how to lift their heads from today's firefighting and start shaping what comes next.This is a conversation about designing the future instead of reacting to it. Nik explains why most so-called black swan events are actually things we saw coming, why innovation often moves at a glacial pace, and why organisations that build a clear vision of the future are far more likely to thrive.Nik also shares a personal turning point that changed the trajectory of his life and work, offering a reminder that leadership growth often starts beneath the surface.If you are serious about leading in uncertainty, cutting through distraction and preparing your organisation for the next decade, this episode will challenge how you think and sharpen how you act.The future will be shaped by those who choose to look ahead. The question is, are you one of them?Actionable Takeaway: Stop chasing speed and start filtering noise.Shape the future, or react to someone else's.Turn hope into clear goals and shared action.Don't confuse AI hype with real advantage.Use tech to simplify decisions, not complicate them.Spend less time firefighting and more time scanning the horizon.AI is a mirror. Your edge is what it can't see.If you've always done it this way, question it first.Connect with Nik Badminton:Learn more about Nik BadmintonNik Badminton on LinkedInNik Badminton on Facebook Nik Badminton on YouTube Nik Badminton on XConnect with Christian "Boo" Boucousis:Learn more about Christian BoucousisBoo on LinkedInBoo on InstagramBoo on YouTube

Kate Bowler invites two of her sharpest friends—Ross Douthat and Molly Worthen—to help her make sense of the current American religious landscape: why the long “decline” story may be shifting, why religious curiosity is popping up in unexpected places, and why the loudest forms of Christianity often feel more online, more political, and more embarrassing. Together they sort through what people mean by “Christian nationalism,” how much of it is symbolism versus policy, what weak institutions and internet incentives are doing to faith, and what still gives them hope for the church.

Author and entrepreneur Luke Burgis joins us to explore the invisible architecture of human desire — and how understanding it can radically change our choices, ambitions, and sense of self. Drawing on his book *Wanting* and the mimetic theory of René Girard, Burgis unpacks how most of what we "want" is shaped not by independent reasoning, but by models — people we unconsciously imitate.From adolescent identity formation to startup culture, self-improvement traps, and curated social media personas, Burgis reveals how easily our values can be hijacked. He discusses the destructive loop of rivalrous desire, the myth of the autonomous goal-setter, and how most of us never pause to ask *why* we want what we want. The conversation also dives into the difference between thin vs. thick desires, how to build a life rooted in fulfillment rather than status, and the importance of discovering what only *you* can do. For anyone seeking clarity in a noisy, comparison-driven world, this episode is a wake-up call — and a blueprint for reclaiming your inner compass. Hosted on Acast.

Although he has a huge following on social media now, Jonathan Edward Durham's life as a writer used to be a lot more low tech. It involved locking himself in a room in Los Angeles, pounding away on screenplays that almost no one ever read, sucking back smokes and liquor, barely sleeping, and finding himself to actually be pretty miserable. He did manage to write and self-publish a novel, Winterset Hollow, that found an audience, which led to getting online to promote it. He started to write more online, finding an audience, effectively keeping a journal to understand himself and the challenges he was facing in his life and in his mental health. Jonathan left Los Angeles, met a guy and got married, and came to a much better understanding of problems he had been dealing with his whole life. The second edition of Winterset Hollow comes out this fall and Jonathan is at work on a new book now. We also hear from John Moe about getting mad, starting MADD, and how to interview the anger that you're feeling to see what injustice it's alerting you to. Of note, we kept seeing Jonathan's short writing come up in our Preshies group on Facebook so much that we eventually had to book the guy. Thanks, Preshies, you are all now associate producers.
