Housing policy isn't just an economic framework, it's public health. When systemic market friction traps buyers and tenants, the human cost is chronic hypervigilance and a steady erosion of psychological safety. In this episode, host Sharlee Dixon and Peter Finger break down the numbers behind America's housing crunch (a 4.7 million home deficit, surging prices, doubled mortgage rates) and explore what that strain is doing to people's stress levels, relationships, and sense of self-worth. They cover how remote work, corporate property buyers, and migration out of the Northeast and West Coast have reshaped affordability, why millions of homeowners feel "locked in" to their current rates, and the widening generational wealth gap between millennials who bought low and a Gen Z now priced out. Sharlee shares her own family's recent home-buying experience, far more grueling than their first purchase a decade ago despite stronger finances, as a window into how automation and tighter underwriting have made the process feel dehumanizing, even demoralizing.

What We Cover In This Episode: How hiring under a time constraint is the most expensive mistake you can make, and what it costs your studio over the next three to five years [11:06] The case for hiring on values before credentials, and what to look for beyond the certification and availability checkboxes [13:23] Why values you have not written down are preferences, not standards, and what actually defines your studio culture when things go wrong [16:47] What most studio onboarding gets wrong, and how to build a process around identity instead of logistics [21:05] A full class does not automatically mean a good instructor, and the numbers that really tell you whether someone is building your studio's future [28:07] The four questions to ask yourself about every instructor on your roster today [31:29] Quotes: "Your goal is to learn about them and what drives them, not how well they studied your business ahead of time." [Nick, 9:20] "If you can kind of figure out that they would fit into your culture, they take a class at the studio and it seems like they blend in well, you can always develop them to be a better teacher, but are they a great human first?" [Nick, 14:09] "They are basically an advocate of the studio. They should be like your absolute best member, if they were just a member of the studio."

"It's not what happens. It's the story you tell yourself about what's happening." -Antonio Michael Downing On this episode of Turmeric & Tequila™, Kristen Olson sits down with critically acclaimed author, speaker, and musician Antonio Michael Downing for a deeply personal conversation about identity, resilience, creativity, reinvention, belonging, and the power of storytelling. Antonio Michael Downing is the author of the acclaimed memoir Saga Boy, the novel Black Cherokee, and Stars in My Crown, and he creates music under his alter ego John Orpheus. His work explores identity, transformation, belonging, and what it takes to change the way we see ourselves. But this conversation goes far beyond books. Kristen and Antonio unpack the question so many of us eventually face: Who am I—and who am I becoming? Antonio shares how his childhood in Trinidad, his grandmother, music, sports, mentors, and the different identities he created throughout his life ultimately helped him understand himself more deeply. They talk about the experience of "trying on" different versions of yourself, what happens when those versions no longer fit, and why making peace with your past can be necessary before you can confidently choose your future. Antonio also explains how writing Saga Boy became part of his own process of coming back to himself, including conducting hundreds of hours of interviews with people from his life to reconstruct his story. The conversation then moves into one of the most powerful ideas of the episode: You have the ability to rewrite the story. Antonio explains that the events of our lives aren't necessarily the thing that defines us—the meaning and narrative we attach to those events can profoundly influence how we move forward. You'll also hear about: Finding your identity Coming home to yourself The power of your childhood self Reinvention and personal transformation The role of sports and coaches in shaping identity Creativity as a pathway to self-discovery Antonio's musical alter ego, John Orpheus Saga Boy and the journey of becoming Black Cherokee and questions of belonging Storytelling and personal narrative Journaling and grounding Breathwork and reconnecting with yourself How problems and adversity reveal character Why identity matters in an increasingly noisy world How to consciously reshape the story you tell yourself Antonio's own mission is beautifully aligned with this conversation: "the story you tell defines you," and he believes great stories are rooted in authenticity, empathy, and integrity. This is a conversation about identity, self-discovery, resilience, and the courage to become the person you were always capable of being.

Change is inevitable, but apparently at some orgs, explaining it to people is optional! In this episode, I'm joined by Kaity Jacobsen (Director, Talent Engagement at Xactly) to talk about why leaders keep obsessing over all these sexy strategies while treating change management like HR's annoying little side quest. We get into AI agents, broken trust, typical corporate chaos, and why no robot is ever going to save you from having an actual convo with your employees about any of this stuff. Tragic, I know! With Shapes, people management looks completely different. Think AI agents handling the routine, a secure HR core, and the ability to build any people tool your org needs, just by describing it in plain english in their built in Shapes Vibe studio.

An army marches on its stomach. Please do not take this literally. As impressive as it may look, a thousand men flopping, rolling and laughing in the mud is neither intimidating or practical. What I am talking about is, very simply, food. Every quartermaster knows the phrase "send a druid before the cart and the army eats before it starts". Yet seldom do they know the second part of the phrase: "but slight her once, and mark it well, the forest keeps its own farewell". To put it bluntly, be nice to your druid and she'll be nice to you. This is harder than it sounds, as druids are, quite frankly, miserable countrymen. A druid does not march in formation, screams at most steel weaponry and will stop the whole host because a hedge "seemed unhappy about something." A druid will let a man go hungry on principle before she lets him shoot a doe that hasn't finished raising her fawns. She she will not apologise and she will remember exactly which soldier complained the loudest. Men who have survived three sieges without flinching will cross an entire camp to avoid a druid's disappointed silence. It is, by every account I've collected, deeply unpleasant to be quietly out-ranked in a moral argument by someone holding a badger and has sunflowers in their hair.None of this matters however, as in the end it is a matter of arithmetic.To feed 50 men for one week without a druid, you will need:* 3 supply wagons* 6 oxen to pull them, and feed for the oxen* 2 armed escorts per wagon, minimum, against bandits, wolves and goblins. Especially goblins.* 1 forager scout, who will get lost so best make it 2 forager scouts* Standing goodwill (or standing coin) with whichever village you're passing* A contingency plan for when the village has, quite reasonably, hidden its grain* An extra crate of soft-leather shoes you can boil for "shoe soup"To feed 50 men for one week with a druid, you will need:* A druid* Several unruly horses you hate (to feed said druid)I once witnessed a single druid consume eleven horses over the span of a six week campaign. She never once touched the venison, the rabbit or the fish she herself had summoned to shallow water out of what I can only assume was professional courtesy to the fish. Only the horses. By the third horse I finally asked her why. She considered the question with the seriousness of a woman being asked to explain colour to someone born without eyes. She said that she liked them. Not the meat. Them. For the better part of a decade I have not stopped thinking about her answer and I am no closer to understanding it. In my youth, I naïvely thought it was only this particular druid that had a penchant for horse meat. Let me tell you dear reader, I had never been so wrong in my entire life.- On the Matter of the Marching Stomach, and Other Inconveniences of War by Quartermaster-General Ordo Bramblehoof If you supported the Jarren's Outpost Board Game, check your emails to manage your pledge manager!

A major hotel brand doesn't need to make every property feel the same. I toured the Embassy Suites Downtown Asheville with Jack Benton, Area Director of Sales & Marketing, and this hotel takes plenty of inspiration from its surroundings. Appalachian textures, mountain-inspired design, open public spaces, meeting areas that connect naturally with the rest of the hotel and guest rooms with unobstructed views give the property a strong sense of #Asheville. The hotel also packs in more than you might expect. Its 188 suites include flexible connecting-room configurations, its meeting spaces handle groups of up to 300 people, and the Michelin Guide recommends its rooftop restaurant. What I really wanted to understand was how a major #HotelBrand creates this much individuality within a familiar flag. Jack explains how the hotel team worked with the brand to develop an experience that connects directly to Asheville and the surrounding mountains. Take the tour and see how this #EmbassySuites uses design, location and the Asheville experience to give guests something much more specific than a standard branded hotel.

In today's Morning Manna, Rick Wiles and Doc Burkhart examine Proverbs 27:17–19 and three powerful pictures of how God develops His people through relationships and faithful service. Iron sharpens iron through necessary friction, the carefully tended fig tree rewards patient labor, and another person's heart can become a mirror revealing our own. This lesson explores why genuine friends must sometimes challenge us, why faithful service is never wasted even when human recognition never comes, and how relationships expose things about our hearts that isolation can hide. God often uses other people to sharpen, reward, and reveal us.

How does culture shape the way we think, behave, and interact with one another? In this episode, anthropologist Oliver Sweet explores the hidden social rules that influence human behavior, from communication and cultural norms to social media, artificial intelligence, and changing generational values. We discuss the psychology and anthropology of culture, how "vibe shifts" emerge, whether technology is making us more narcissistic, and what AI could mean for collaboration, empathy, creativity, and human connection.

Welcome, gorgeous souls, to Episode 445 of Aligned Abundance! ✨This week, I'm joined by psychotherapist and sexologist Jenn Pinkerton for a powerful conversation about love, attraction and the relationship patterns we can find ourselves repeating without even realising it.Jenn shares why our nervous system can sometimes mistake inconsistency, uncertainty and emotional unavailability for chemistry, and what may actually be happening when we feel intensely drawn to someone who isn't able to meet us emotionally. We explore why healthy, emotionally safe love can sometimes feel "boring" when we're used to chaos, how to tell the difference between genuine chemistry and nervous system activation, and the subtle ways our attachment wounds can influence who we choose and how we show up in relationships.Here's what you'll discover in this week's episode:Why inconsistency and emotional unavailability can sometimes feel like chemistryHow to tell the difference between genuine attraction and nervous system activationWhy emotional safety can feel "boring" when you're used to chaos or unpredictabilityHow to begin breaking survival-based relationship patterns and create healthier, more secure connectionsThis episode is such an important reminder that intensity doesn't always equal intimacy, and chemistry doesn't always mean compatibility. When we begin to understand the patterns our nervous system has learned to associate with love, we can stop confusing uncertainty with attraction, recognise where we may be abandoning ourselves to maintain connection and start creating relationships rooted in emotional safety, authenticity and genuine connection.Don't forget to share your biggest takeaways with me on Instagram @iamemmamumfordVisit Jenn's website: https://jennpinkerton.com/-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Explore More Ways to Manifest Your Dream Life...

That's not a coincidence, it's language creating your reality.Steph explores the profound influence of language on our reality, drawing on the teachings of Florence Scovell Shinn. She breaks down a simple formula behind it: thoughts lead to feelings, feelings lead to actions, and actions lead to results. Every word we speak sends a vibration into the world, shaping the experiences we keep attracting. Steph introduces the No Complaint Challenge as a practical way to notice the language we default to and start shifting it toward something more empowering.

AI conversations are everywhere right now, but confidence and competence aren't actually moving together, and that gap should worry you more than it does. I'm joined by Theresa Fesinstine, founder of PeoplePower.ai and creator of the AI Fluency Compass, an assessment that over 850 HR leaders have now taken. Turns out about 40% of people who take it present way more confidently than they actually perform. Not great! We get into why HR keeps telling itself it's "not technical enough," the real difference between confidence that's earned and confidence that just performs well in a meeting, and why checking your AI tool settings might be the single most underrated move you can make right now. We also cover agentic AI risk, the pressure to keep up so you don't get left behind, and what it actually looks like to lead your org through this instead of just reacting to it. If you've ever nodded along in a meeting about AI while quietly having no idea what anyone's talking about, this one's for you With Shapes, people management looks completely different. Think AI agents handling the routine, a secure HR core, and the ability to build any people tool your org needs, just by describing it in plain english in their built in Shapes Vibe studio.

How do the words we say to girls shape the way they eventually speak to themselves?This episode is for anyone who interacts with girls - whether you're a parent, teacher, coach, mentor, aunt, grandparent, youth leader, or simply someone who has the opportunity to influence a girl's life.In this short episode of Empowering Her, I'm talking about how the words girls hear from the adults around them can slowly become part of their inner voice. The way we respond to mistakes, talk about appearance, praise achievement, encourage risk-taking, and even speak about ourselves can all influence a girl's confidence, self-worth, and ability to trust herself.The beautiful part is that we get to be intentional about the messages we give them. Simple words like "I trust you," "You can figure this out," and "You don't have to be perfect" can help build confidence, resilience, and self-trust that girls carry with them long after the conversation ends.Because empowering girls doesn't only happen during the big talks. It happens in the everyday moments - in our homes, classrooms, sports teams, workshops, car rides, and conversations.One question I hope you'll take with you after listening:Would I want her saying these same words to herself ten years from now?If this conversation resonates with you and you want to go deeper, my book, Empowered Women Empower Girls: A Guide to Modeling Courage, Confidence + Self-Love for Our Next Generation, explores how the way we show up, speak to ourselves, and move through the world can help shape the next generation of girls. Get your copy here.Let's Stay Connected!As an empowerment coach, author, twin girl mom, and the creator of the GiRLiFE Academy, my mission is to help every woman and girl discover her voice and live a life that lights her up from the inside out.I'd love to connect with you and continue this beautiful journey together!

Several years ago, Dr. Mark Liederbach, senior professor of ethics, theology, and culture at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary, and Dr. Evan Lenow, president of the ERLC, collaborated on a book titled “Ethics as Worship: The Pursuit of Moral Discipleship,” which released in 2021. On today's episode, ERLC Director of Research, Dr. RaShan Frost, speaks with Dr. Lenow and Dr. Liederbach about the process of writing this book together and their approach to teaching about a biblical view of ethics that places worship of God as the primary motivation and goal, and how that shapes the way we live. In addition to his role as senior professor at Southeastern, Dr. Liederbach also serves as dean of students and vice president for student services. He received his bachelor's degree from James Madison University, his M.Div. from Denver Seminary, and his Ph.D. from the University of Virginia. Now, let's turn to our conversation with Drs. Evan Lenow and Mark Liederbach. Listen to more episodes of The ERLC Podcast at erlc.com/podcast.

Drawing on her influential research on poverty and cognitive function, Professor Mani answers why people sometimes make decisions that seem to go against their own interests, and how poverty itself changes the way we think and make choices.The conversation explores what behavioural economics can teach us about poverty, the timing and design of cash transfers, the additional constraints faced by women, the role of identity in shaping economic behaviour, and how these insights can lead to better policy design.

In this episode of the Get Obsessed podcast, Dr. Nicki Monti joins Julie Lokun and Mika Altidor to share how childhood trauma, addiction, and the search for self-love shaped both her life and her decades of helping others heal. An experienced therapist, author, and speaker, she draws on both professional expertise and personal experience to challenge the stories that keep people stuck. Drawing from more than four decades of sobriety, Dr. Nicki explores core wounds, emotional defenses, authenticity, and self-worth. She also reflects on caring for her late husband, working with public figures, and why healing begins by replacing old survival stories with the truth. In this episode, we discuss: What inspired Dr. Nicki to use her own life story instead of hiding behind professional credentials Why sobriety marked the beginning of emotional healing rather than the end of addiction How core wounds formed in childhood shape self-worth and lifelong beliefs Why emotional defenses can protect people while quietly preventing genuine connection The process of replacing old beliefs with personal responsibility and lasting emotional change Lessons from working with celebrities and why healing follows the same principles for everyone How projection shapes the way people judge themselves and others ABOUT THE GUEST: Dr. Nicki J. Monti is a licensed marriage, family, and child psychotherapist, author, speaker, and podcast host known for her no-nonsense approach to lasting change.

Under Construction: Renovating A Home, Redeeming An Industry
What really makes a company a great place to work? For us at Big Fish, it's the people. In this episode, we are talking about how the culture at Big Fish has grown over the years and what it looks like day-to-day. From surprise baby showers and birthday celebrations to showing up for each other when life gets a little crazy, we've built a team that genuinely cares about one another. We're getting into what it takes to create that kind of team, why the people you bring into your company matter so much, and how culture really starts with the people at the top. We also talk about giving people the freedom to be themselves, supporting each other outside of work, making time to recharge, and why doing the right thing is always the goal. So whether you run a business, lead a team, or just want to be part of a workplace where people actually like being around each other, there's plenty to take away from this conversation. You'll hear what we think makes a strong team, why character matters just as much as talent, and how we're continuing to build something we're really proud of at Big Fish.

There's an old story that was made famous by writer David Foster Wallace.Two young fish are swimming through the water when they pass an older fish.The older fish greets them and asks:“Morning, boys. How's the water?”The two younger fish keep swimming.Then, after a little while, one looks at the other and asks:“What the hell is water?”The story isn't really about fish.It's about us.The things that surround us every day become almost invisible precisely because they are always there.Our homes.Our neighborhoods.Our relationships.Our workplaces.Our phones.Our food.Our stress.Our air.Our routines.Our social media feeds.The voices we hear.The standards we accept.The behaviors everyone around us considers normal.That's our water.And most of us rarely stop long enough to ask:Is this water helping me become healthier… or is it quietly pulling me in the opposite direction?Resources: Brain.fm App(First month Free, then 20% off subscription)Discount Code: coachdamiensdLinks:IG:@coachdamien_sd@damienrayevans@livinthedream_podcast YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCS6VuPgtVsdBpDj5oN3YQTgFB:https://www.facebook.com/coachdamienSD/

Growth creates complexity, and the early church in Acts 6 proved that a growing community isn't a problem-free one. When cultural tensions flared over neglected widows, the apostles didn't dismiss the issue or divide the church; they restructured so everyone was cared for without compromising prayer and teaching. This moment offers a blueprint for handling internal friction, preventing leadership burnout, and serving people without partiality. In this video, we break down Acts 6:1–7 to uncover three principles for building a community that reflects the Kingdom of God when challenges arise.

How structural racism shapes health outcomes for Black Americans, experts discuss In a healthcare hub like Cleveland, home to several major hospital systems including one of the top ranked in the country, it's hard to imagine that there are residents who struggle with access to healthcare. For a large portion of the population, this issue has historical ties to systemic racism and disenfranchisement that continue to effect people of color today, in Cleveland and beyond. Research shows that Black Americans are more likely to see higher rates of infant and maternal mortality, but less likely to seek and receive mental health support or treatment. They're also subject to greater discrimination in medical education. These kinds of disparities date back to and directly stem from the eras of slavery and Jim Crow laws, and a history of medical violence that has led to a distrust in the system. Thursday on the "Sound of Ideas" hosted by Stephanie Haney, we discuss what health equity means, what Cleveland is doing to support its residents of color, and a new book by a Cleveland-born sociologist. Guests:- Dr. Timothy Goler, Associate Professor and Sociology Department Chair, Norfolk State University- Stacey Easterling, Executive Director, National Institute for African American Health- Lita Wills, Commissioner, City of Cleveland's Division of Health Equity and Social Justice The Menu Areas of Cleveland like Tremont, Ohio City, and the Downtown are often the first thought when considering where to go out for a bite to eat, spend an evening or recommend to an out-of-town visitor. But what about lesser known areas, just a short drive away? Bringing the outskirts of Greater Cleveland to the forefront is the mission of a new series from Cleveland Magazine, where writers there are diving into the gems in places like Canton, Oberlin, and Geauga County. In this week's installment of "The Menu," where we dig into the region's food scene with the writers at Cleveland Magazine we look at their new "A Clevelander's Guide To..." write ups. Guests:- Annie Nickoloff, Senior Editor, Cleveland Magazine- Julia Lombardo, Editor, Cleveland Magazine

Cutting Through the Chaos with Wallace Garneau – Political conflict increasingly turns on contested definitions. This discussion examines antisemitism, Islamophobia, Palestine, Zionism, and the Israel-Hamas war through history and first principles, arguing that precise language is essential for honest debate, clear reasoning, mutual understanding, and meaningful political discourse in a divided world today...
Paul Krauss, MA, LPC, and world-renowned EMDR pioneer Dr. Laurel Parnell discuss how all mental health treatments as well as trauma treatment can be both more effective and more accessible. Together they explore the power of EMDR therapy, the research and early skepticism surrounding it, and how EMDR interfaces with other healing modalities around the world to accelerate perspective shifts, open the heart, and support deep inner alignment. The discussion also highlights how EMDR therapy does not erase memories but helps the nervous system clear the emotional residue of triggers so that experiences move from psychological, self-defining memory into objective memory, allowing people to reclaim their natural gifts, energetic sovereignty, and a life not limited by past trauma In this episode, Dr. Parnell and Paul discuss how EMDR therapy can help people change more quickly by integrating fragmented traumatic material, creating new pathways for healing, and supporting clients to feel both safer and more free in their bodies and relationships. They delve into the nuances of psychological versus objective memory consolidation, the importance of inner resources and inner alignment, and how EMDR can be combined with transpersonal psychotherapy to invite experiences of connection, meaning, and spiritual opening. Drawing from Dr. Parnell's own journey, including the tragic loss of her son, they examine the limits of conventional trauma treatment and the emergence of Multidimensional Integrative Healing (MDIH) as a way to work across physical, emotional, psychological, somatic, and spiritual realms in service of post-traumatic growth rather than mere symptom reduction. The conversation further explores how clinicians can safely integrate transpersonal psychology, energetic traditions, and Eastern spiritual practices within a grounded therapeutic frame, including working with phenomena such as shamanic experiences and releasing unwanted energetic attachments. Also, they discuss how to work with people from all spiritual orientations, including multiple faiths, agnostics, and atheist clients. Dr. Parnell describes clinical steps for helping clients identify what energies are truly theirs, release what is not, and stand in their own power, guided by an innate healing intelligence that moves toward wholeness when properly supported. Ultimately, she emphasizes that the goal of EMDR and MDIH is not simply desensitizing trauma, but helping clients reclaim the radiant presence of their True Nature so they can live more authentically, creatively, and compassionately in the world. Dr. Laurel Parnell is an internationally recognized clinical psychologist, EMDR trainer, and leading expert on Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, best known for developing Attachment-Focused EMDR and Resource Tapping. She has trained thousands of clinicians nationally and internationally, has taught transpersonal psychology at the California Institute of Integral Studies and John F. Kennedy University, and continues to offer EMDR trainings and Multidimensional Integrative Healing programs through institutions such as Alliant International University, Omega Institute, Esalen Institute, and the Parnell Institute Dr. Parenell's Releasing What Isn't Yours, expands on her Multidimensional Integrative Healing framework and the clinical process of helping clients recognize and let go of energies and burdens that do not belong to them, reclaim their energetic sovereignty, and reconnect with their True Nature.

Today, I'm delighted to reconnect with Dr. Tabatha Barber, also known as The Gutsy Gynecologist. She is a triple board-certified OB-GYN specializing in perimenopause, menopause, and functional medicine. In today's discussion, we explore why supporting your hormones involves much more than simply replacing them. Dr. Barber explains how our nervous system, internal dialogue, cellular health, stress response, and lifestyle work together to influence our hormones, energy, and overall health during midlife. We also discuss why addressing root causes is essential for lasting improvements, the role of mitochondrial health, and practical ways to better support your nervous system. If you're looking for a more comprehensive approach to navigating perimenopause and menopause, you will not want to miss today's insightful conversation with Dr. Tabatha Barber. IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN: Why regulating your nervous system is essential for lasting hormone and health improvements Why the conversations you have with yourself matter more than external circumstances Why Dr. Barber prefers to focus on identifying the root causes of health issues instead of repeatedly treating downstream symptoms How sympathetic dominance and unresolved stress patterns can influence hormone function Other factors, apart from HRT, that are essential for improving women's health during midlife How oxidative stress, lack of sunlight, and disrupted circadian rhythms can contribute to fatigue and reduced cellular energy How hormone changes in midlife often coincide with greater self-awareness, stronger boundaries, and less people-pleasing How faith, prayer, and gratitude can support nervous system regulation Practical ways to support and regulate your nervous system Bio: Tabatha Barber Dr. Tabatha Barber is a triple board-certified physician — and one of the most distinctive voices in faith-based women's health today. Her story begins where most would have stopped. A teenage mother and high school dropout, she rebuilt her life through faith and perseverance — earning her doctorate and certifications before realizing the very system she trained in was missing the whole point. Today, as owner and medical director of Her Higher Health, creator of the Fast to Faith Coaching Academy, 40 Day program, supplement line, and international bestselling book Fast to Faith, Dr. Tabatha brings one message to every stage and microphone: your body is not broken — your approach is.

Send us Fan MailDavid Suzuki, founder and CEO of Bio-Therapeutic, explains frequency specific microcurrent: how it stimulates the mitochondria, why ATP decline drives aging, and what the clinical data shows.What is Bio-Therapeutic?A second generation, FDA registered device manufacturer founded in the 1970s by Suzuki's father, an electrical engineer who worked on Boeing missile systems before turning to the body's own electrical system. "Every function in the human body is powered by cellular energy, but the frequencies are what the commands are."How does aging relate to mitochondria and ATP?ATP production peaks in the mid 20s and declines, leaving damage unrepaired. Collagen, elastin, and circulation are all ATP driven. "What I really have when I look in the mirror is age... a collection of damage that I no longer have enough cellular energy to repair in real time."What is the difference between EMS, TENS, and microcurrent?EMS twitches muscles and above roughly 300 microamps shuts the mitochondria down. TENS controls pain without healing. Microcurrent works low. "If you're down in the more 40 to 80 microamps, that's really where the sweet zone is." A 1982 study found low microamperage can generate up to 500 times more ATP.What does the clinical data show?University of Washington studies found wound healing "sped up by nearly four times," plus a 14 percent collagen synthesis improvement, a 48 percent elasticity increase, and a 38 percent circulation increase over roughly 20 days.What order should you layer microcurrent with skincare?Cleanse, exfoliate, microcurrent, then products smallest molecule to largest. The stratum corneum is non living and non conductive. "70 to 80 percent of the products that you put on topically will get caught up in the stratum corneum and never make it to the living tissue."How much does microcurrent improve absorption?"Your electricity is going to help get much better absorption into the skin, maybe 50 to 60 percent more than if you were just topically applied," provided the skin is properly exfoliated first.Why does ingredient concentration matter?Many brands cite a study's results while dosing a fraction of the studied amount. "That is a true statement. They just left out the fact that it was a 2 percent introduction of that particular key ingredient."What pairs well with microcurrent?LED across blue, yellow, and red wavelengths, plus oxygen infusion, since the Krebs cycle is aerobic. "You start to spray that onto the surface of the skin... your mitochondria are chirping like little birds."Can you use microcurrent with Botox and fillers?Yes, with coordination and timing. "You just want to make sure that whoever your injector is, that they're aware that you're doing microcurrent." Expect a three to four week gap, longer for fillers.How is microcurrent different from microneedling or laser?Those work through controlled damage. Microcurrent upregulates what the body already does, and it moves muscle. "There's nothing else that does the sculpture of the face. And that's where microcurrent comes in."Does microcurrent fatigue your muscles?Not at proper levels. High current EMS depletes localized ATP; low level microcurrent does the opposite. "You can't really overdo it with microcurrent, but you can basically really regenerate them and make them healthy."Is microcurrent safe for the heart?Facial current stays localized between the probes. Federally required contraindications include "pacemaker, any sort of heart issues, thrombosis, phlebitis." Anyone with a heart condition or implant should clear it with their physician.Listen to the full episode with David Suzuki of Bio-Therapeutic on Skin Anarchy, available wherever you get your podcasts.Shop Bio-TherapeuticDon't forget to subscribe to Skin Anarchy on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your preferred platform.Reach out to us through email with any questions.Sign up for our newsletter!Shop all our episodes and products mentioned through our ShopMy Shelf!*This is a paid collaborationSupport the show
What Does the Confederacy's Legacy Mean for the Modern South and Christian America? Host Curtis Chang and New York Times columnist, and Good Faith podcast "founding friend," David French confront the enduring power of the Confederate myth. David reflects on growing up as a white Southerner in a culture shaped by Confederate symbols, revisionist history, racial injustice, and a deeply rooted shame-and-honor code. Curtis, a Chinese American immigrant, brings an outsider's perspective that challenges familiar assumptions about heritage, memory, and belonging. Together, they examine Confederate monuments, the theological defenses of slavery, the meaning of "heritage, not hate," and whether honest historical reckoning can lead to redemption and reconciliation. 02:51 - Curtis Congratulates David on the Birth of His Latest Grandchild 05:54 - Why Does the Confederacy Still Matter? 10:12 - The South's Distinct Cultural Cohesion 22:19 - "Heritage, Not Hate": A White Southern Perspective 29:52 - Race, Religion, and Revisionism in the South 42:13 - The Resurgence of Explicit Racism 47:20 - What to Do with Confederate Memorials 56:32 - Repenting of Southern Shame-Honor Culture 01:01:32 - Institutions Founded on Injustice Can Carry Spiritual Darkness Sign up for The After Party Informational Webinars Sign up for The Good List Mentioned in This Episode: Learn about the Tulsa Race Massacre Learn about The Great Migration Watch MLK50 Conference (video) More about General George H.
