Compensation is one of the messiest parts of any organization. Pay becomes a proxy for belonging, validation, performance, identity, and status… which means it's almost guaranteed to feel unfair, confusing, and emotionally loaded. Layer on a capitalist “more is always better” mindset, and you get the hedonic treadmill of work: every raise increases expectations, which creates the next round of dissatisfaction. In Part 1 of this two-part series on compensation, Rodney Evans and Sam Spurlin dig into why comp is so psychologically charged, why most systems are overly complex, and why the “objective” company lens will never fully match the lived human experience of money. -------------------------------- Ready to change your organization? ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Let's talk.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Get our newsletter: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Sign up here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Follow us: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ -------------------------------- Mentioned references: baby hyenas hedonic treadmill performance management episode: AWWTR Ep. 39 "authority field": The Ready's OS Canvas FAANG (Facebook, Amazon, Apple, Netflix, Google) aka "Big Tech" EOT (Employee-Owned Trust) 00:00 Intro + Check-In: What's the best animal you've seen recently? 04:07 The pattern: No level of compensation ever feels like enough. 10:17 Comp becomes a proxy for self-worth 14:16 Setting individual comp levels 23:23 Importance of real pay transparency, not “bands” 27:24 Comp “up and to the right” ignores market value 31:25 Setting team-level comp and rewards 36:04 Shared rewards vs Hunger Games for sales teams 38:29 Is equity a good thing…or a trap? 46:09 Wrap Up: Continued next time in part 2 Sound engineering and design by Taylor Marvin of ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Coupe Studios⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

Animals, Justice, and the Politics of Violence: Shared Struggles in Turkey (Palgrave Macmillan, 2025) by Dr. Sezai Ozan Zeybek explores the intricate relationship between humans and animals in the context of modern Turkish history. From drafted animals in war, to urban stray dogs and the role of cattle in the Kurdish conflict, the cases developed in this book show how animal lives are deeply entangled with human affairs, including complex social organisations such as families, states and nations. In doing so, the book exposes power dynamics, exploitative practices, and the discursive regimes that underpin development, nationalism, and urban growth. This book offers a timely exploration of human-animal relations, critically revising a number of concepts such as human rights, productivity, health and efficiency from a multispecies perspective. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

Pastor Rodney taught that following Jesus was never meant to be a solo journey—God designed His people to live and serve in shared strength, where burdens, responsibilities, and spiritual empowerment are carried together in community. Just as God gave Moses leaders to share the weight and the Spirit to multiply the impact, believers today are called to step up for one another, knowing that Jesus ultimately shares our burdens and empowers us through His Spirit.

What does it mean to truly trust God — not just believe in God, but let go of everything you know and step out in faith?In this sermon for the Second Sunday in Lent, The Rev. Craig Swan explores the story of Nicodemus (John 3:1-17) — a leader who comes to Jesus in the night, drawn toward a teacher whose radical message both thrills and unsettles him. Fr. Craig traces the thread of trust across this week's readings: from Abraham's astonishing leap of faith at age seventy-five (Genesis 12), to Paul's declaration that righteousness comes through faith, not works (Romans 4), to Nicodemus standing at the threshold of transformation.The central question of this Lenten season, Fr. Craig reminds us, is the same one God has always asked: Do you trust me?Scripture ReadingsGenesis 12:1–4a — God calls Abram to leave everythingPsalm 121 — “I lift up my eyes to the hills”Romans 4:1–5, 13–17 — Abraham's faith reckoned as righteousnessJohn 3:1–17 — Nicodemus comes to Jesus by night; “For God so loved the world”Holy Week & Easter at St. Peter'sPalm Sunday, March 29 — 8:00 AM & 10:15 AMMaundy Thursday, April 2 — Shared meal 5 PM + Holy Eucharist 6 PM at St. Augustine's, KingstonGood Friday, April 3 — Stations of the Cross 12 PM; Liturgy 7 PM (joint service with St. Augustine's)Easter Vigil, April 4 at 7 PM — Deanery-wide event; Bishop presiding & preachingEaster Sunday, April 5 — Festival Eucharist with brass, timpani & full choirSt. Peter's by-the-Sea is an Episcopal Church in Narragansett, Rhode Island.Sunday worship rooted in Anglican liturgy, scripture, and thoughtful preaching.Plan a visit: https://www.stpetersbythesea.com

Your “perfect man” checklist might be the very thing keeping you single. You made the list because you were told that's how smart women date. Know what you want. Don't settle. Have standards. And yet you keep ending up with men who look great on paper and feel wrong in real life. Or you eliminate every man before he ever has a real chance. At some point you have to ask yourself if the list is actually serving you. In this episode, Hilary breaks down three reasons the checklist backfires. She explains the difference between surface-level criteria and real character, why most women struggle to recognize emotional health when they see it, and how “high standards” can quietly function as protection from vulnerability. Shared religion, impressive credentials, and lifestyle alignment may check boxes, but they do not guarantee integrity, kindness, or emotional maturity. This conversation is not about lowering your standards. It is about refining them. It is about learning to assess consistent behavior over optics, trusting what you feel in your body, and choosing from discernment instead of fear. When you stop dating from a spreadsheet and start dating from self-trust, everything changes. Episode Highlights: Why your checklist might be screening for credentials instead of character The difference between logistics that matter and boxes that mean nothing How men can “perform” emotional availability and how to tell when it's real The subtle way high-achieving women turn dates into auditions When “high standards” are actually fear of vulnerability in disguise Episode Breakdown: 00:00 The Problem with the Partner List 03:12 Surface-Level Traits vs. Real Character in Dating 05:53 How to Spot Real Emotional Availability 08:45 The Dangers of Assumptions in Relationships 12:01 Are Your High Standards Blocking Love? 14:45 How to Use a Dating Checklist the Right Way ✨ I'm Hilary Silver, LCSW, former psychotherapist turned master coach and founder of Ready for Love. I help high-achieving women show up in love as confidently as they do in their careers.

There is no magic treatment for Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, POTS, or mast cell activation disorders, but there is strategy. In this episode of Bendy Bodies, Dr. Linda Bluestein is joined by Dacre Knight, MD, founding Medical Director of the UVA Health EDS and Hypermobility Disorders Center, for a practical and deeply thoughtful conversation about how complex chronic conditions should actually be treated. Rather than chasing quick fixes, Dr. Bluestein and Dr. Knight explore sequencing. What to address first when everything is flaring, how to balance short-term symptom relief with long-term sustainability, and why overtreatment can sometimes cause more harm than good. They discuss the pitfalls of siloed care, the insurance barriers that complicate physical therapy, and the importance of starting low, going slow, and minimizing treatment burden. The episode also tackles difficult but essential questions: What does “getting better” really mean in lifelong connective tissue disorders? How do clinicians avoid reactionary prescribing? And how can patients recognize the difference between a thoughtful care plan and a rushed one? Takeaways: There is rarely a single “magic” treatment for EDS, POTS, or MCAS—progress usually comes from strategic sequencing. Overtreating symptoms without addressing underlying patterns can create long-term setbacks. Physical therapy must be individualized in hypermobility, with an emphasis on pacing and trust. Shared decision-making improves outcomes, especially when treatment goals align with what brings the patient meaning and quality of life. Minimally disruptive medicine matters, reducing cognitive, financial, and physical treatment burden is part of effective care. Find the episode transcript here.

This week's guest is Chris Pickett, Chief Commercial Officer at Flock Freight as well as the Founder of Pickett Research. Chris Pickett returns to the podcast after 6 years! In the conversation, he discusses the evolution of freight brokerage, from his days building Coyote Logistics to his current focus at Flock Freight. He details how Flock is establishing "Shared Truckload" as a distinct mode from TL and LTL, allowing shippers to pool freight within corridors to reduce costs and carbon emissions. We also discuss his proprietary "Pickett Line" market analysis tool that identifies both the timing and amplitude of the truckload market cycle. Chris issues a bold warning for shippers: prepare for a potential 45% surge in spot rates and double-digit contract increases by the end of 2026. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

What if the roots of modern cults, extremist politics, and even today's “wellness” movements trace back to Nazi occultism, hypnotic manipulation, and one of the most controversial religions in the world? In this explosive episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Jon Atack — the world's leading expert on authoritarian cults and a former Scientologist who has spent over 40 years investigating its origins — reveals the shocking connections no one talks about. Drawing from his groundbreaking book If Scientology Ruled the World: Nazi Occultists, Sex Magick, Space Aliens, and the Second Coming, Jon uncovers how occult beliefs influenced the Nazi Party… and how those same ideas shaped Scientology. Jon Atack breaks down: - How L. Ron Hubbard repackaged occult practices (including hypnotic techniques, repetition, fixation, and mimicry) and sold them as revolutionary “science” - Outlandish promises that hooked followers: supernatural powers, immunity to illness, genius-level IQ, emotional mastery - How Hubbard's early interest in psychology morphed into the darker techniques behind Dianetics - Hidden factors in Hubbard's personal life (addiction, PTSD, and legal trouble for practicing medicine without a license) that shaped what Scientology would become - Allegations of how followers were treated, including psychological and physical abuse - Frightening recourse Jon himself faced for speaking out Jon also shares his deeply personal story of joining, and ultimately escaping, Scientology. He reveals the major red flags he ignored at first… and the first warning sign you should always look for before joining any movement or ideology. But this conversation goes far beyond Scientology. We also cover: - What actually defines a cult or authoritarian group - How recruitment tactics are now supercharged by the internet and social media - Where dangerous occult practices are still hiding in plain sight - Surprising benefits and dangers of hypnotherapy - How to distinguish modern spirituality from manipulative occult systems - Why today's political climate often mirrors cult dynamics - Why healthy skepticism might be the most important survival skill of the digital age This isn't about throwing away all ideology or spirituality. It's about learning how to extract the good without falling for manipulation. If you care about psychology, cults, spirituality, politics, authoritarian movements, mind control, or the hidden forces shaping modern society…this is a conversation you cannot afford to miss.

In this episode of the Lead Culture Podcast, Jenni Catron sits down with renowned leadership expert and bestselling author Patrick Lencioni to explore his groundbreaking framework, The Six Types of Working Genius.Lencioni—best known for The Five Dysfunctions of a Team and his work on organizational health—shares how the Working Genius model helps leaders and teams understand the kinds of work that energize them and the tasks that drain them. When teams gain a shared language for how people are wired to contribute, collaboration improves, frustration decreases, and culture becomes healthier.Patrick explains the six types of work required in every project—Wonder, Invention, Discernment, Galvanizing, Enablement, and Tenacity—and how each person typically excels in two of these areas. By identifying these strengths, leaders can build more balanced teams, place people in roles where they thrive, and reduce unnecessary guilt and judgment in the workplace.Throughout the conversation, Catron and Lencioni discuss:Why organizational health is more important than strategy aloneHow the Working Genius framework improves team communicationWhy many leaders unintentionally place people in the wrong rolesHow shared language around strengths transforms team culturePractical ways leaders can use the model to hire, develop, and align teamsWhether you're new to the Working Genius assessment or already using leadership tools like DISC, Myers-Briggs, or the Enneagram, this conversation will help you rethink how work gets done—and how understanding your team's natural gifts can unlock greater engagement, productivity, and purpose.If you want to build a healthier culture, lead people more effectively, and help your team do their best work, this episode is a must-listen.Take the assessment here with 20% off. We need your help to get the LeadCulture podcasts in front of more leaders!

John Kairys is the Executive Director of the Automotive Aftermarket Charitable Foundation, bringing more than 40 years of experience across retail, wholesale, franchising, and distribution in the automotive aftermarket. He now leads efforts focused on providing financial assistance and support to industry professionals facing personal hardship.Orlando Mangual is the owner of Mangual Enterprises and a multi-location Tuffy Tire & Auto operator, growing his business to multiple stores through a people-first leadership approach. His background in training and organizational development shaped his strategy for building scalable, team-driven operations.Kyle Suffoletto is a multi-store operator with Tuffy Auto Service Center, overseeing locations across multiple states while focusing on operational growth and franchise collaboration. With a background in management and marketing, he has helped expand his family's automotive business into a growing regional network.Stephen Mars is a partner at Williams Russell Group and an automotive industry leader managing more than 20 locations across several U.S. markets. A military veteran turned operator, he combines leadership development and operational discipline to drive multi-location growth and organizational culture.Julio Trinidad is a longtime Tuffy Auto Service Center franchise owner based in Florida, operating his location for more than a decade while maintaining a hands-on approach with customers and team members. His career reflects a commitment to community-focused service and owner-led business culture within the franchise network.In this episode…Growth in today's aftermarket demands more than adding bays or signing leases. The operators who continue expanding understand structure, leadership discipline, and shared intelligence are competitive advantages. Independent shop ownership delivers freedom, but scale demands systems, collaboration, and accountability. That tension defines the future of auto repair franchise growth.This series of conversations cut through surface-level success stories and expose the realities behind multi-location expansion. Economic downturns forced reinvention. Military service shaped leadership philosophies. Franchise systems created strength without sacrificing autonomy. The conversation centers on mindset; transparency, communication, and the willingness to pivot, because sustainable auto repair franchise growth rests on operational clarity and cultural alignment, not luck.Here's a glimpse of what you'll learn: [01:23] John Kairys on AACF's mission and industry responsibility[09:29] Orlando Mangual on scaling from one store to ten[16:15] Kyle Suffoletto on franchise structure and collaborative growth[21:45] Stephen Mars on leadership, adversity, and multi-state expansion[32:46] Julio Trinidad on owner visibility and franchise cultureResources mentioned in this episode:John Kairys' LinkedInAACF WebsiteTuffy Tire & Auto Service WebsiteStephen Mars' LinkedInTread PartnersGain Traction Podcast on YouTubeGain Traction Podcast WebsiteMike Edge on LinkedInQuotable Moments:“This job checks those two boxes very thoroughly; passion and purpose.”“Transparency, communication, and pivot.”“It doesn't matter what it is in life that you want to do. You just have to put your heart to it and go after it.”“I didn't fail, I learned.”“When you join a franchise, you own your business, but you're not out there alone.”Action Steps:Audit your leadership language this week. Replace vague directives with clear standards built around transparency, communication, and pivoting when performance stalls.Schedule a quarterly peer roundtable with other operators. Shared intelligence accelerates auto repair franchise growth faster than isolated decision-making.Identify one operational bottleneck limiting expansion and assign ownership to a leader with measurable outcomes tied to execution.Strengthen employee communication systems. Multi-location growth collapses without consistent messaging and cultural alignment.Create a three-year expansion roadmap that defines capital allocation, talent development, and acquisition criteria before pursuing the next location.

Ron Hubbard repackaged occult practices (including hypnotic techniques, repetition, fixation, and mimicry) and sold them as revolutionary “science” - Outlandish promises that hooked followers: supernatural powers, immunity to illness, genius-level IQ, emotional mastery - How Hubbard's early interest in psychology morphed into the darker techniques behind Dianetics - Hidden factors in Hubbard's personal life (addiction, PTSD, and legal trouble for practicing medicine without a license) that shaped what Scientology would become - Allegations of how followers were treated, including psychological and physical abuse - Frightening recourse Jon himself faced for speaking out Jon also shares his deeply personal story of joining, and ultimately escaping, Scientology. He reveals the major red flags he ignored at first… and the first warning sign you should always look for before joining any movement or ideology. But this conversation goes far beyond Scientology. We also cover: - What actually defines a cult or authoritarian group - How recruitment tactics are now supercharged by the internet and social media - Where dangerous occult practices are still hiding in plain sight - Surprising benefits and dangers of hypnotherapy - How to distinguish modern spirituality from manipulative occult systems - Why today's political climate often mirrors cult dynamics - Why healthy skepticism might be the most important survival skill of the digital age This isn't about throwing away all ideology or spirituality. It's about learning how to extract the good without falling for manipulation. If you care about psychology, cults, spirituality, politics, authoritarian movements, mind control, or the hidden forces shaping modern society…this is a conversation you cannot afford to miss.

I brought back Becky Pierson Davidson to compare notes on where community is headed — and we found a few areas of disagreement. Becky works with 6, 7, and 8-figure businesses helping them build memberships and courses through design thinking and customer research, and she's seeing a major shift right now: course businesses are slowing down, and the smart ones are pivoting to membership models. The difference? Shared learning experiences are replacing self-paced education. Community is what people stay for. We dig into the real mechanics: how to set expectations that don't feel like a bait-and-switch, why meaningful engagement isn't what most people think it is, the mastermind paradox (increases retention, decreases forum activity), and why in-person events might be the most important retention lever you're not using. Becky's hot take for 2026: content drops are dying. People don't need more stuff — they need connection and programming that moves them forward.

Money can sometimes feel easier to manage in your business than in your relationship. In this episode, I sit down with Ed Coambs to gently explore what happens when you bring your money skills home and begin navigating them alongside a partner. We talk about financial intimacy, emotional safety, and what it truly takes to have honest, grounded conversations when two nervous systems — and two lifelong money stories — are in the room."Financial intimacy is the experience of being able to talk openly, safely, vulnerably about your shared financial life, your money hopes, dreams, aspirations, as well as your fears, worries, and anxieties." - Ed CoambsBuilding Financial Intimacy and Healthy Money ConversationsIn a relationship, money is rarely just about numbers. It's about safety, power, vulnerability, and the stories we each carry from childhood into adulthood. In this conversation, Ed and I unpack how financial intimacy gets built — and how it quietly breaks down — through everyday conversations and unspoken dynamics.I often see couples fall into predictable roles: one partner pushes to engage with money, the other pulls away. Over time, these roles can harden into resentment or shutdown, especially when income shifts, career growth, or differing values enter the picture.Repair is possible! It begins with slowing down, naming old hurts, owning the part you've played in past conflicts, and choosing to approach money conversations with collaboration instead of defensiveness. When you tend to both the emotional and practical sides of money together, trust deepens — and conflict softens.Emotional Patterns, Relationship Shifts, and Money ConversationsMoney shows up in relationships through tone, body language, and nervous system reactions — not just spreadsheets. In this episode, we dig into what's happening underneath the surface when money becomes tense.(00:04:39) Understanding Financial Intimacy(00:06:54) Exploring Emotions Around Money(00:15:21) Couples and Evolving Money Views(00:18:32) Navigating Money Dynamics in Relationships(00:21:52) Owning Your True Feelings(00:27:40) Modeling Respect Through Conversations(00:30:11) Money and Relationships with KindnessWhat It Really Takes to Talk About Money TogetherBuilding financial intimacy means learning how to stay present when money stirs up fear, shame, or old family patterns. When you start noticing the emotional tone of your conversations — not just the content — you can begin to shift from tension into connection.When you begin speaking honestly about what money really represents for you — security, freedom, worth, control — power struggles often soften. Over time, those small moments of repair and respect not only change your relationship, they quietly shape the money story your children will inherit as well.Ready to Improve your Business Money Skills?Are you a Solo Private Practice Owner?

In this powerful and deeply human conversation, Ashish Kothari sits down with Beck Sydow, Founder of HumanKind Business Leaders, former CEO of StickerGiant, and executive with a rich background in operations and mental health.Together, they explore why so many leaders want flourishing workplaces but struggle to create them—and reveal the missing ingredient:Shared human dignity.Beck introduces her transformative model of People-Hearted + Business-Minded leadership, showing how fear, core wounds, and over-indexing on one side of leadership keep organizations stuck in survival mode. She shares a roadmap for leaders to reconnect with their intrinsic worth, regulate their nervous systems, and lead in ways that create sustainable organizational health and performance.This is not a conversation about theory—it's about lived experience, emotional truth, and the real work leaders must do to cultivate conditions where people and businesses thrive.

In this episode of The Distribution, Brandon Sedloff sits down with Travis Pritchett, CEO of HMC, to unpack his unconventional path into alternatives and the evolution of a middle-market investment firm navigating a rapidly changing private markets landscape. From a biology major and fly-fishing enthusiast to leading an $8 billion global real assets platform, Travis shares the inflection points that shaped his career and the strategic decisions that have defined HMC's growth. The conversation spans power generation, European value-add real estate, and the modernization of luxury senior housing, all framed by a focus on asset-level execution and long-term mega trends. They discuss: How Travis transitioned from banking and fly fishing into real estate private equity and ultimately into HMC's CEO role The origins of HMC's power generation strategy and how the firm is capitalizing on AI and data center demand without taking data center risk The evolution of the middle-market value add model and why specialization is becoming a competitive necessity The shift toward luxury, high-amenity senior housing and the demographic forces reshaping the sector Why Europe may present a multi-year opportunity given rebased valuations, capital flows, and competitive dynamics Links: HMC - https://www.harbert.net/ Travis on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/travis-pritchett-1343264/ Brandon on LinkedIn - ⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/bsedloff/⁠ Juniper Square - ⁠https://www.junipersquare.com/⁠ Topics: (00:00:00) - Intro (00:02:24) - Travis' background and early career (00:17:37) - Staying 20 years through growth (00:20:45) - HMC today (00:22:55) - Shared services tradeoffs and costs (00:27:27) - AI tailwinds and new competition (00:28:27) - Power investing 201 (00:29:44) - Gas vs renewables cycle (00:31:09) - Where power capital comes from (00:33:31) - Data centers without DC risk (00:36:33) - Value add platform evolution (00:40:07) - US vs Europe opportunity (00:43:54) - Seniors housing strategy shift (00:47:31) - Luxury senior living today (00:52:01) - Generalist versus specialist (00:55:09) - Reimagining with megatrends (00:57:48) - Closing and wrap up

Discover how to master shared understanding for Agile success

If you want to understand what real brotherhood looks like — not surface-level friendships, not lone wolfing it, not "I've got this" energy — but true fellowship forged through shared hardship, this episode is for you.   Today I sit down with Frank Schwartz, aka Dark Helmet, President of F3 Nation. We dive deep into faith, fellowship, fitness, and what actually changes a man. Frank shares how going from 40 pounds overweight and spiritually empty to leading a global movement of men completely transformed his identity. We talk about sad clown syndrome, why success on paper doesn't equal fulfillment, why most men isolate when they're struggling, and how shared suffering builds trust faster than anything else.   If you've ever asked yourself, "Is this it?" — you're going to want to hear this one.     Timeline Summary [0:00] Introducing Frank Schwartz (Dark Helmet) and the mission of F3 Nation [12:06] The three Fs: Fitness, Fellowship, and Faith — and why they must build in that order [18:05] The Lone Wolf Lie and why men isolate when they're struggling [24:02] Growing up with impossible standards and how that shaped identity [28:56] Sad Clown Syndrome — winning on paper but empty inside [39:00] The pull-up moment that redefined what brotherhood really means [48:49] Do you have what it takes? The answer every man needs to hear     Five Key Takeaways Discipline starts physically — but real transformation is internal. Surface-level friendships will never sustain a man in crisis. Shared suffering accelerates trust faster than conversation alone. Success without brotherhood often leads to quiet emptiness. Every man asks "Do I have what it takes?" — and the answer is yes.     Links & Resources F3 Nation: https://f3nation.com Frank Schwartz Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/leadwithvirtue The Men's Forge Live Event: https://themensforge.com Episode Shownotes: http://thedadedge.com/1446       Closing     If you're tired of lone wolfing it… if you're successful on paper but feel disconnected… if you know there's more inside you but you haven't unlocked it yet — this episode is your invitation.   Get around strong men.

Is assimilation oppressive or is it essential? “Immigration without assimilation is invasion.” — Charlie Kirk Some call it nationalism. Others call it wisdom. This week, we unpack what assimilation actually means and why shared language, shared values, and shared law matter for a nation's survival. We're not talking about ethnicity, we're talking about unity. Is it loving to expect newcomers to adopt the values of the country they're entering? Is assimilation biblical?

In this powerful episode of the Round Trip Death podcast, host Eric Bennett sits down with Steven La Russa from Reno, Nevada, to discuss one of the most remarkable near-death experience (NDE) accounts you'll ever hear. In fact it was a shared NDE.In October 2024, Stephen suffered a sudden heart attack with no prior cardiac history while on a trip to Lake Tahoe with his wife Wanda. What followed was a deeply transformative NDE in which Steven blacked out, traveled through darkness into a vast starry space, and neared a white light — all while receiving direct, telepathic messages from God urging him to stop avoiding his spiritual calling and step fully into his life purpose as a healer and coach.What makes this episode uniquely extraordinary is that Stephen's wife Wanda simultaneously had her own experience — entering her own parallel state of darkness and space while lying beside him. The two communicated telepathically throughout the event, and at the moment Steven was ready to surrender to death, Wanda's voice broke through urging him to keep fighting. As Steven neared the threshold of the white light, Wanda began speaking aloud in two African languages and one Indian language — languages neither she nor Stephen know — in what appeared to be intercessory prayer or light language. She had no memory of it afterward, describing it as being "taken over by the Spirit," providing Stephen with undeniable proof that the experience was divinely real.His story is a compelling testament to the reality of the afterlife, the existence of a divine plan, and the transformative power of a near-death experience (NDE) to shatter the false identities that keep us from living the lives our souls came here to live.Video Version of This EpisodeFOLLOW & SUBSCRIBERoundTripDeath.comDonate to this podcast: https://www.roundtripdeath.com/support/Steven La Russa

Sibling relationships are some of the most complicated — and formative — relationships in our lives.Some of us grew up sharing bedrooms and birthday cakes. Some of us have siblings through adoption. Some of us have friends who feel more like family than blood ever could. But what actually makes someone a brother or sister?In this episode, Clayton, Chris, and Amy explore the beauty and tension of siblinghood—from childhood rivalries to lifelong loyalty—and then turn to Scripture to ask: Why are sibling relationships in the Bible so messy? And why does the New Testament choose “brothers and sisters” as the primary language for the Church?From Cain and Abel to Mary and Martha, from birthright competition to spiritual inheritance, this conversation reframes siblinghood not just as shared DNA, but as shared responsibility, affection, and the recognition of God's Spirit in one another.What if sibling love — even with all its friction — is actually training ground for the family of God?TakeawaysSiblings can be complicated, but they teach us responsibility, empathy, and long-term commitment. Shared experiences—whether growing up together or navigating life's challenges—create bonds that are difficult to replicate. Deep friendships can also become “sibling-like” when trust, loyalty, and shared challenges grow over time. Scripture shows both the messiness and redemption of sibling relationships, offering guidance for how we relate to one another. Observing and guiding sibling dynamics in our families can help children learn empathy, cooperation, and healthy connection. Ultimately, meaningful kinship is defined more by shared experience, commitment, and longevity than by DNA alone.Chapters00:00 – Are siblings our most complicated relationships?03:29 – Growing up with brothers and sisters: shared stories11:14 – What actually defines a sibling?21:30 – When friendship starts to feel like family28:51 – Why are biblical siblings always fighting?31:14 – From rivalry to redemption: brothers in the New Testament37:27 – Birthright, inheritance, and God's upside-down kingdom42:00 – Responsibility, affection, and the Spirit that makes us family

Recent changes to childhood vaccine recommendations have introduced shared clinical decision‑making for several immunizations that were previously universally recommended, creating confusion among patients and providers alike. This course explains what shared clinical decision‑making means in the context of immunizations, examines how it affects pediatric vaccine discussions, and highlights opportunities for pharmacists to support informed, individualized conversations with patients and caregivers. You will gain clarity on how to apply shared clinical decision‑making principles—alongside proven health coaching strategies—to strengthen patient trust and foster more meaningful dialogue in pharmacy practice.HOSTRachel Maynard, PharmDGameChangers Podcast Host and Clinical Editor, CEimpactLead Editor, PyrlsGUESTElizabeth Skoy, PharmD, RPhProfessorNorth Dakota State UniversityGET CE FOR THIS LISTENING!The GameChangers Clinical Update Series for Pharmacists delivers 52 expert-led podcast episodes and 30+ hours of clinically actionable continuing education, all for a one-time purchase of just $99—that's less than $3 per hour for high-impact learning you can apply immediately in practice.

The episode centers on the evolving responsibility and risk allocation within cybersecurity distribution, with particular focus on Exclusive Networks' approach. Jason Beal, as president of Exclusive Networks North America, outlines their emphasis on a technical workforce, maintaining a 1:3 ratio of engineers to sales representatives. This structure is positioned to address the increasing complexity of cybersecurity and the demands faced by service provider partners, aiming to support solution integration and customer needs while clarifying each party's liability. Supporting this structure, Jason Beal identifies the role of the distributor as both an extension and enabler for MSPs and IT services companies. Distributors are expected to supplement partners' capabilities—whether technical, financial, or operational—without assuming technology failure risk, which remains with the original technology vendors. Discussion of shared responsibility models also distinguishes between sales success (customer adoption, retention) and risk management. Recent developments in cyber insurance are cited as having reduced the direct risk burden on MSPs, shifting much of the liability away from service providers toward technology creators, albeit within contractually defined limits. Adjacent to cybersecurity, the conversation addresses skill and adoption gaps prompted by rapid technical innovation, specifically referencing artificial intelligence (AI). Jason Beal quantifies educational efforts by highlighting a collaboration with Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, which has seen 100 students engaged to help address workforce shortfalls in cybersecurity and AI. Additionally, academic experience informs the importance of modernizing IT operations curricula to better reflect current business challenges, such as cloud, AI, and global supply chain impacts. For MSPs and IT service providers, implications include the growing necessity to audit core competencies and allocate resources strategically, leveraging distributors not just for sourcing products but for specialized expertise, integration, and operational support. Risk mitigation remains tied to understanding contract language, vendor accountability, and developments in cyber insurance. The pace of AI and other technology adoption requires continuous education and careful evaluation of both operational risk and the practical limitations of solutions promoted by the channel and distribution partners.

For many of us, evangelism can feel like a huge weight and completely undoable—often because we tend to think it's all on us. The truth is that God does the work, we just need to be faithful to share our story and his story. Each week we're looking at both God's part and our part in being Ready Storytellers. This week we look again at our strategy of “P.E.A.R.L.” as we wrap up our series. Because God brought you back to himself in Christ, live as a Ready Storyteller—available and intentional—looking for open doors to reveal Christ.

Arthur Herman discusses the Scottish Enlightenment and the philosophical origins of "common sense," highlighting the influence of Thomas Reid, who argued that all humans share a basic set of perceptions that allow for shared judgments and the construction of relationships.

Timestamp to skip the intro chat: (13:36)Folie à deux is a French term that means ‘madness of two'. It can also refer to a shared psychosis or a shared delusional disorder.In 2008, identical twins Ursula and Sabina Eriksson were acting erratically.  They had traveled to England from Sabina's home in Ireland.  The sisters were asked to leave a bus that they had been traveling on as they were acting paranoid and would not let the driver search their belongings.  After they got off the bus, the sisters ran into oncoming traffic on a motorway.Ursula would be hospitalized for months, while Sabina was released soon after the event.  Sabina would wander the streets of Stoke on Trent in England, looking for her sister.  A man named Glenn Hollinshead took pity on Sabina and took her in.  Sabina would end up killing Glenn by stabbing him five times with a kitchen knife.  Neither sister has given any reason for their actions.We also discuss the strange case of the Tromp Family.  In 2016, Mark and Jacoba Tromp fled their home in Silvan, Australia, along with their three adult children Ella, Mitchell and Riana.  The family were convinced that people were after them and that they were being tracked by their devices.  One investigating police officer described this case as "the most bizarre case I've seen in 30 years".The family would all eventually be recovered safely, following a large-scale police investigation.  Mitchell Tromp would later say 'I've never seen anything like it. It's really hard to explain or put a word on it but they were just fearing for their lives and then they decided to flee. It was a build-up of different, normal, everyday events - just pressure - and it slowly got worse as the days went by."Read our blog for these cases - https://truecrimesocietyblog.com/2026/02/24/folie-a-deux-crimes-events-of-shared-psychosis/This episode is sponsored by:NOCD - If you're struggling with OCD or unrelenting intrusive thoughts, NOCD can help.  Book a free 15 minute call to get startedJoin us on Patreon for exclusive weekly contentBe sure to follow us on Instagram for the latest crime news
