Podcasts about shifts

In this special birthday reflection episode, I'm slowing things down and turning inward.  I'm sharing where I am in this season of life, what feels solid, what feels unclear, and what I'm intentionally leaving open. Birthdays always make me pause. They give me space to reflect, to check in with myself, and to notice how much has changed internally and externally. In this episode, I'm asking myself honest questions and inviting you to sit with them too. This journey is about so much more than money. It's about who we're becoming along the way.

In this episode, I'm talking all things self-care, stress, and navigating perimenopause without losing your mind. We cover mini screen breaks, getting outside, building morning and evening routines that actually stick, and how movement with friends can be a total game changer. I also chat with Dr. Mariza about sleep struggles, hormone shifts, and practical ways to feel more grounded and energized every day. Plus, I share my go-to rituals: red light masks, acupressure mats, cozy teas, and sacred “me time, ”that keep me sane while juggling work, kids, and life.→ Leave Us A Voice Message!

Feb 3, 2026 – When markets soar but Main Street struggles, what signals should you trust? In this episode, Peter Boockvar, author of The Boock Report, explores the implications of Trump's choice for new Fed Chair, the recent parabolic move...

This Badlands Media special coverage documents remarks by Donald Trump surrounding the reopening of the federal government and the signing of an executive order addressing government operations and policy priorities. The coverage details provisions tied to the Consolidated Appropriations Act, including funding decisions for federal agencies, reductions in foreign aid, the defunding of NPR and PBS, cuts to IRS enforcement programs, and the restructuring of USAID in favor of an America First Opportunity Fund. The remarks also cover military funding and pay raises, shipbuilding investments, prescription drug pricing reforms, and protections for rural hospitals. Additional discussion addresses border enforcement, deportation operations, crime statistics, sanctuary city policies, and state-level fraud investigations. Election administration, voter identification, and federal authority over election integrity are also discussed. The coverage concludes with press questions touching on Epstein-related documents, border policy debates, and government accountability, presenting the full scope of official statements as delivered.

Not long ago, the primary concern people had about boys was that they were wild, impulsive, and out of control — getting into fights, pushing limits, and stirring up trouble. Today, the problem has flipped. The more common challenge isn't reckless behavior, but inert passivity. More and more young men are anxious, apathetic, socially isolated, and seemingly uninterested in doing much of anything at all.Vince Benevento, the founder of Causeway Collaborative — a male-specific counseling center — and the author of Boys Will Be Men: 8 Lessons for the Lost American Male, has spent nearly two decades working on the front lines of this shift. As a therapist, coach, and mentor who specializes in helping young men between the ages of 14 and 30, Vince has worked with both the combustible and the checked-out and developed a clear, experience-honed framework for what actually helps guys get unstuck, take ownership of their lives, and move forward with purpose.In today's conversation, we unpack what Vince has learned through years of work with boys and men, and how his approach — which is rooted more in action than in talk — can be applied not just in the therapist's office, but by parents and mentors. We dig into why traditional therapy often fails young men, and how to give them the drive, accountability, and sense of connection they crave. We discuss the importance of teaching young men to build life “brick by brick” and helping them find their wild, their thing, and a good group of friends.Resources Related to the PodcastAoM Podcast #810: How to Turn a Boy Into a ManAoM Podcast #926: The 5 Shifts of ManhoodAoM Podcast #1,028: The 5 Marks of a ManAoM Podcast #886: What the World of Psychology Gets Wrong About MenAoM Article: Get Your Son Out of His BedroomAoM Article: How Labeling Your Emotions Can Help You Take ControlSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Send us a textPeaches runs a solo Daily Drop Ops Brief and cuts through a wide slate of military news with zero patience for nonsense. From the Army's recruiting age creeping up and a 10th Mountain deployment to the Middle East, to a soldier sentenced for murder at Fort Novosel, this episode stays grounded in accountability and reality. Peaches breaks down why the Army paused the soldier-built VECTOR data tool, what Navy pilots flying Air Force F-35As actually learn from it, and why a former Marine drill instructor's post-release arrest is indefensible. The Air Force brings back no-notice ORIs, lessons learned from Midnight Hammer drive comms upgrades, Space Force stands up a Northern Command component, the Coast Guard responds to deadly maritime incidents, SECDEF Hegseth takes aim at legacy procurement at Blue Origin, and the White House pushes to end the government shutdown.

When it gets dark before you've even wrapped up work for the day, winter can feel like it shrinks your whole life. Suddenly everything feels harder, heavier, and honestly… a little bleak. And while part of you might want to hibernate until April, another part of you knows that doesn't really work when you're running a business and trying to live a full life.In this episode, I'm sharing how I've learned to actually work with winter instead of fighting it. After moving from Philly to the north shore of Long Island (where winter is colder, darker, windier, and somehow five degrees colder just to be rude), I had to build a real winter toolkit — not just cozy socks, but mindset shifts, routines, and intentional rituals that make this season feel supportive instead of soul-crushing.In this episode, you'll hear…Why your relationship with winter might be making it harder than it needs to beThe mindset shift that completely changed how I experience winterHow I intentionally design winter to feel cozy, grounding, and even enjoyableWhy winter is actually essential for creativity, energy, and long-term sustainabilitySimple routines and rituals that give you something to look forward to all season longClick here to find the full show notes and transcript for this episode.RESOURCES:Get Sam's free weekly newsletter, Sam's SidebarRegister for my free LIVE legal training “5 Steps to Legally Protect & Grow Your Online Business in 2026”Get Sam's book "When I Start My Business, I'll Be Happy"Click here to be notified when new episodes of On Your Terms® come outCONNECT:Sam on InstagramSam on FacebookOn Your Terms® on InstagramSam on YouTubeDISCLAIMER

The last hour gets off to a silly start when Tobin lays it on thick with Leroy because he continues to answer math problems on Twitter instead of paying attention. Tobin reports the Marlins are moving away from Fanduel this year and the Heat are expected to do the same as Fanduel seems to be missing payments.

It's been two months since the federal government began deploying thousands of federal agents to Minnesota. Rachel Sayre is the city of Minneapolis emergency management director. She has coordinated emergency resources for residents. MPR News host Kelly Gordon spoke to her about some of the impacts she has seen.

In this episode of the HAYVN Hubcast, host Nancy Sheed is joined by Virginia Juliano, marketing and strategy consultant, and Marie Protomastro Patel of Girl on the Ball Solutions. Together, they reflect on a recent HAYVN Marketing Hub gathering and unpack the marketing shifts shaping how business owners and leaders should think about growth as we move into 2026. “Clarity is something that's never been out of style, but I think it's becoming even more important.” — Virginia Giuliano A central theme of the conversation is that marketing is no longer a separate function — we're all marketers now. From solopreneurs to established businesses, everyone is responsible for how their expertise, message, and value show up in the world. Key insights from the conversation include: AI is no longer optional — it's foundational.AI isn't a standalone tool or trend; it's woven into everything from strategy to content distribution to how people discover businesses. Like the early days of the internet, the shift is about integration, not resistance. Clarity is king — and always has been.No amount of clever tactics or polished content can compensate for a lack of clarity. Being clear on who you serve, what you do, and why it matters is the bedrock of effective marketing and strategy. Strategy must come before tactics.Business owners often get lost in execution — platforms, posts, tools — without anchoring decisions in strategy. Marketers add value by asking the hard questions that help cut through the clutter. Perfection is no longer the goal. Authenticity is.The pressure to constantly perform or produce flawless content is easing. Audiences are responding more to real, human moments than overly polished marketing. Showing up matters more than showing off. You don't need to be a content machine.Content stewardship is replacing content overload. Businesses should focus on what feels aligned, comfortable, and sustainable — and then use AI to repurpose and extend what already exists. Marketing is relationship building at its core.Whether through newsletters, speaking, podcasts, or in-person events, trust and connection drive long-term success. Community and human connection are becoming more valuable than noise and volume. AI amplifies good input — it doesn't replace thinking.AI can enhance strategy and execution, but only when the inputs are clear. Without clarity, goals, and intention, even the best tools fall flat. This conversation reinforces a powerful shift in modern marketing: less pressure, more alignment; fewer tactics, stronger strategy; and more humanity at every touchpoint. As AI becomes embedded in how we create and discover information, the business leaders who stand out will be the ones rooted in clarity, authenticity, and genuine relationships.  “Marketing works best when it feels sustainable, not performative.” —  Marie Protomastro Patel Marketing isn't about doing more — it's about doing what matters, consistently and in ways that feel true to who you are.

Matt Faircloth interviews Amanda Cruise, as the two co-host a year-end conversation reflecting on lessons from 2025 and what they see ahead for real estate investing in 2026. They discuss how investor behavior has shifted away from high-risk appreciation plays toward stable, predictable cash flow, and how that change is reshaping capital raising and deal structures. The conversation covers decisiveness in acquisitions, why cash-flowing debt and yield-focused investments are resonating with investors, and how different asset classes are responding to market uncertainty. Amanda shares why mobile home parks remain resilient due to shrinking supply and rising demand for affordable housing, while Matt explains his plans to clean up underperforming multifamily assets and lean further into debt funds and cash-flowing hotel deals. This matters because many investors are being forced to rethink buy boxes, underwriting assumptions, and exit strategies. Understanding where transaction volume is likely to increase—and where structural demand still exists—helps investors position themselves for opportunity without relying on market appreciation alone.

What might change if you were three degrees friendlier than you are now? Not more accommodating or self-sacrificing, but authentically friendlier—to your inner life, with others, and in how you meet the world. In this talk, I explore what friendliness actually is, why it so often shuts down under stress, and how small, accessible practices can bring it back online—and, over time, uplevel your friendliness quotient.   As our hearts become more friendly, we become more inwardly free. Our everyday interactions grow more alive, engaging, and surprisingly heart-opening. And finally, friendliness can offer just the kind of global warming we most need in these times.   Our introduction music is from "Opening" by Adrienne Torf, © 2025 ABT Music

What if the most important changes in your life are already happening in quiet ways you can barely see? We dive into “emerging energies” with a nature-driven metaphor—light shifting in a late-afternoon forest—to reframe progress as something you feel and cultivate, not something you force or perform.With a full moon in Leo approaching, we reflect on the tension between spotlight energy and grounded alignment, inviting you to shine in ways your life can hold. The tarot's Messenger of Water leads us into desire, self-love, and the art of romanticizing the ordinary. You'll hear practical, doable rituals—morning affirmations, candle-lit intentions, gratitude lists—that stitch meaning into your day and build a life that feels congruent. Key themes include:• emerging energies as slow, natural change• noticing micro shifts in thought and habit• easing nervous system strain from speed culture• choosing small daily practices for integrity• discerning glitter from genuine growth• Leo full moon contrasted with subtle alignment• Messenger of Water on desire and self-love• poem on release, ritual, and making spaceBy the end, you'll have a handful of small, steady practices to align with what truly lights you up—and the permission to trust slow change.

France's decision to discontinue American collaboration platforms such as Zoom and Microsoft Teams for government use—replacing them with the domestically developed Vizio platform—signals a shift toward digital sovereignty and data control within regulated jurisdictions. This move, formalized as part of France's Suite Numerique and to be implemented by 2027, highlights the increasing fragmentation of technology policy where national governments assert authority over platform selection and sensitive data handling. The development underscores operational risk for MSPs and IT service providers as assumptions of technology homogeneity across regions become unreliable.Supporting these shifts, South Korea enacted the world's first comprehensive AI legislation, requiring mandatory labeling of AI-generated content and risk assessments for high-impact systems, such as those in hiring and healthcare. According to the transcript, 98% of AI startups in South Korea report they are not prepared for compliance. Both developments reveal a pattern: early regulatory efforts tend to produce vague requirements, unclear enforcement, and real operational complexity. Providers operating in multiple jurisdictions must now anticipate compliance fragmentation and increased overhead as regulatory regimes diverge.Additional analysis focused on the continued evolution of the managed services stack, particularly through the lens of AI and workflow automation. Companies like Thrive are investing in enterprise platforms that embed AI-driven reasoning within workflow tools, shifting coordination away from traditional PSA ticketing systems. Meanwhile, integrations such as Quark Cyber with ScalePad's Lifecycle Manager X, and new partnerships between ServiceNow, TeamViewer, Anthropic, and OpenAI, illustrate a market splitting between providers focused on standardization and those managing more complex, enterprise-like environments. Microsoft's financial results further highlighted this trend, with record capital expenditure on AI infrastructure and increased reliance on proprietary chips to reduce dependency on external vendors like Nvidia and OpenAI.For MSPs, these developments raise practical governance and accountability questions. Shifts in regulatory authority and technology platforms create increased risk exposure for providers that do not proactively manage cross-jurisdictional compliance and secure defaults. Vendors are tightening control over platforms as AI becomes central to product architecture, often prioritizing internal risk management over shared upside with partners. Providers that fail to enforce robust data governance, understand cost drift, or plan for architectural lock-in are positioned less as strategic advisors and more as absorbers of client and vendor risk.Four things to know today00:00 France's Platform Ban and South Korea's AI Law Show Regulation Catching Up to Technology04:23 AI Is Reshaping the MSP Tool Stack as Thrive, ServiceNow, and ScalePad Take Different Paths07:37 Microsoft's SMTP AUTH Delay and CISA's AI Slip Show the Risk of Optional Security ControlsAND10:26 Earnings Show Microsoft Turning AI From Feature to Infrastructure as Partner Risk GrowsSponsored by: TimeZest 

AI and intellectual property are evolving fast – and creating real uncertainty for companies building with or around AI.  This episode of The Data Chronicles breaks down the key IP claims emerging today, from copyright and DMCA theories to right of publicity, trademark, and output based risks.  We look at how early court decisions are treating AI training and outputs, why plaintiffs are pivoting toward DMCA and misattribution claims, and where regulators like the FTC may (and may not) step in.  We close with a practical checklist for organizations using or developing AI, as the landscape continues to shift.

Markets continue to break down Microsoft (MSFT), Meta Platforms (META), and Tesla (TSLA) earnings after all three Mag 7 giants reported Wednesday evening. The first of which has the lone down arrow ahead of Thursday's session. Kevin Hincks explains why the numbers in Microsoft's report were "pretty solid" even though the trading action suggests otherwise. On the Fed, Kevin talks about the impact jobs data had on the FOMC's perspective. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

In this New Year kickoff episode of the Braided Faith Podcast, I'm opening the mic with a messy bun, a full heart, and a moment I've held onto for far too long. At the end of 2025, I recorded a raw, unedited solo episode in the days following the assassination of Charlie Kirk. This was an event that stirred grief, questions, and a deep spiritual awakening across the country.I never felt released to share it… until now.As we step into a new year, I'm revisiting that moment not to dwell on tragedy, but to remember the shift so many of us felt…….a stirring toward courage, truth, revival, and boldness in our faith. This episode is a reminder to keep that momentum alive: to speak truth in love, to stand firm in wisdom, and to choose obedience over fear, even when it costs us relationships, comfort, or approval.What follows is the untouched recording from that week, a glimpse into my heart in real time, and an invitation for you to carry the same fire into 2026.Connect with me:Braided Faith IG: http://www.instagram.com/braidedfaith/   ⁠Cryssie Addis IG: https://www.instagram.com/cryssie.addis/Novel & Mug IG: ⁠http://www.instagram.com/novelandmugBraided Faith FB: ⁠http://www.facebook.com/groups/braidedfaith   ⁠Braided Faith Website: ⁠www.braidedfaith.comNovel & Mug Website: ⁠http://www.novelandmug.com   ⁠The Wellness Box: ⁠http://www.thewellnessbox.shop

Continuing the “Come Back to God” mini-series, Lisa Whittle builds on previous discussions about where revival begins and how it moves from wild gatherings into the streets. Authentic revival isn't confined to church walls; it's about lives changed so profoundly that their transformation influences entire communities and even culture. Using powerful biblical and historical examples—such as Pentecost and the Welsh Revival—Lisa illustrates how revival's true fruit includes lifestyle changes, justice, and community renewal. She emphasizes that lasting revival requires humility, love, ongoing repentance, deep discipleship, and persistent prayer. Lisa encourages listeners to reflect on where God wants to move in their neighborhoods, workplaces, and families—and how they can be part of a movement that shifts culture for God's glory.

Stud-and-tube bricks, which paved the way for Lego to become one of the most successful companies in Denmark, were patented on 28th January, 1958. But this family business had already been in existence for 26 years, mostly making wooden toys. It later emerged, however, that the plastic self-locking bricks that brought them so much success had in fact already been invented - and patented - by British toymaker Hillary Page in 1940. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly explain how Lego's lawyers stay one step ahead of their imitators; unconvincingly demonstrate how to pronounce ‘Skoda'; and reveal how branded toys - a controversial pivot for the company in the ‘90s - helped save the business… Further Reading: • ‘LEGO Brick Timeline: 50 Years of Building Frenzy and Curiosities' (Gizmodo, 2008): https://gizmodo.com/lego-brick-timeline-50-years-of-building-frenzy-and-cu-349509 • ‘Self-Locking Building Bricks, Lego precursor, Kiddicraft (1944-)': https://www.brightontoymuseum.co.uk/index/Category:Self-Locking_Building_Bricks_(Kiddicraft) • ‘60 years of LEGO: capturing the world's imagination' (5 News, 2018): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xZTiAarAOqw Love the show?

You've noticed the signs and redefined success, the next question is simple (and loaded!): now what? In this conversation, Jen Pestikas and I share the small, intentional steps that helped us reinvent our careers without pressure or a dramatic leap. We talk about self-discovery practices, micro-experiments, grounding rituals, and learning to follow energy instead of titles. Reinvention isn't a straight line or a polished plan. It's a series of aligned steps, taken with curiosity, courage, and the right support. This final episode of the Career Reinvention series is about making that next chapter feel possible—and sustainable.

If you are stepping into a new role with broader scope, higher visibility, or C-suite level accountability, the pressure to perform often shows up as more effort, more involvement, and faster execution.This episode of Grounded and Aligned™, looks at why that approach breaks down at senior levels. Karen examines how success in expanded roles depends less on activity and more on how leaders see themselves, how they make decisions, and how that internal reference point shapes authority, boundaries, and impact.Karen looks atWhy strategies and behaviors alone are insufficient when role scope increasesHow self-concept directly influences decision speed, priorities, and boundariesThe cost of remaining positioned as the reliable problem solver in senior rolesHow authority is undermined when effort replaces judgmentWhy teams and stakeholders respond to hesitation, over-involvement, and avoidance as signals of role definition“Performance and impact, efficacy, it's not about what you output. It's about how you make decisions, how quickly you make decisions, how you frame those decisions and how you implement those decisions.” - Karen GombaultAs scope expands, leadership effectiveness accumulates through judgment, role design, and disciplined decision-making. Without an explicit shift in how leaders see their role and responsibility, effort increases while authority weakens, creating unsustainable patterns that limit impact over time.Next stepsDownload the associated guide, The Identity Lag: https://www.karengombault.com/identity

Many women hit midlife and feel something they cannot name. They are still doing the right things, eating well, exercising consistently, showing up for everyone, yet life suddenly feels harder and less familiar. Age Like a Girl gives language to this experience and explains why it is not a failure, but a shift happening beneath the surface.This is not a motivation problem.This is not a discipline issue.And it is not “all in your head."In this hol+ conversation, Dr. Taz sits down with New York Times bestselling author and leading voice in women's health Dr. Mindy Pelz, host of the hit podcast The Resetter Podcast, to explore the core message behind Age Like a Girl: menopause is not a decline, it is a biologically wired reinvention.Instead of treating perimenopause and menopause as a crisis to manage, Dr. Mindy reframes the transition as a neurochemical and cognitive remodel designed to make women more focused, emotionally resilient, and aligned with who they truly are. She breaks down why modern life often clashes with this primal design, and why brain fog, mood shifts, and emotional intensity are not random symptoms, but signals that the brain is asking for a new way of living.This episode explores why women can feel anxious, disconnected, or unlike themselves even when they are “doing everything right,” and how metabolism, stress chemistry, and neurotransmitters shape mood, clarity, and identity. Dr. Taz and Dr. Mindy discuss why many women initiate big life and relationship changes after 40, why community and connection become essential, and why reinvention is not a midlife crisis, but biology.From perimenopause into postmenopause, this conversation reframes aging as an awakening. Not the end of youth, but the return of clarity, boundaries, and self-trust. If you have ever felt dismissed, confused, or afraid that something is wrong with you, this episode offers a validating and hopeful roadmap forward.Dr. Taz and Dr. Mindy Pelz discuss: • The core message of Age Like a Girl and why it reframes menopause • Why the female brain is biologically wired for reinvention after 40 • Brain fog and mood shifts as signals of a cognitive remodel • How modern life clashes with primal biology • Why women often make major life decisions in midlife • The role of neurotransmitters in clarity, calm, and confidence • Why community and deep connection matter more than ever • How to reclaim vitality without another exhausting checklistAbout Dr. Mindy PelzDr. Mindy Pelz is a New York Times bestselling author, visionary educator, and trailblazer in the field of women's health and hormone science. With over two decades of experience, she's built a global movement to help women understand the power of their bodies at every stage of life. Her bestselling books, including Fast Like a Girl, The Menopause Reset, and Eat Like a Girl, have helped millions of women use fasting, nutrition, and lifestyle shifts to balance hormones, boost energy, and take back control of their health. Her newest release book, Age Like a Girl, redefines what it means to grow older as a woman.Rooted in the latest science and rich in personal story, the book challenges outdated narratives about menopause and aging offering instead a roadmap for awakening. Dr. Mindy shows women how to use the neurochemical shifts of midlife as a launchpad for purpose, leadership, and bold reinvention. Dr. Mindy's Resetter Podcast consistently ranks among Apple's top U.S. science shows, with guests ranging from LeAnn Rimes and Rachel Hollis to Dr. Rangan Chatterjee. Her YouTube channel has surpassed 110 million views, and her teachings have reached hundreds of thousands through workshops, online programs, and live events.Order the book: Age Like a Girl Stay Connected:Connect further to Hol+ at https://holplus.co/- Don't forget to like, subscribe, and hit the notification bell to stay updated on future episodes of hol+.Follow Dr. Mindy PelzInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/dr.mindypelz/Website: https://drmindypelz.com/ Podcast: The Resetter PodcastFollow Dr. Taz on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drtazmd/https://www.instagram.com/liveholplus/Subscribe to the audio podcast: https://holplus.transistor.fm/subscribeSubscribe to the video podcast: https://www.youtube.com/@DrTazMD/podcastsGet your copy of The Hormone Shift: Balance Your Body and Thrive Through Midlife and MenopauseHost & Production TeamHost: Dr. Taz; Produced by ClipGrowth.com (Producer: Pat Gostek)

What happens when long-held faith begins to raise deeper questions?In today's episode, I'm joined by my longtime friend Kathy Hahn. Over nearly twenty years of friendship, I've watched Kathy live out her faith sincerely while also wrestling honestly with complex theological questions.A little more than two years ago, Kathy made the decision to join The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, where she and her husband have since been baptized and are now actively serving.In this thoughtful conversation, we explore what led her to the LDS Church, how she has reconciled theological differences with her former beliefs, and what it means to follow conviction when faith evolves.This episode is about curiosity and understanding in a world that too often doesn't appreciate either. Special Guest: Kathy Hahn

Londinium Winter 92AD. The debate shifts to the "Greenland affair," which Germanicus contextualizes as part of a long, often "piratical" tradition of American territorial expansion, comparable to the Louisiana Purchase. Rather than a mere real estate deal, this is portrayed as an attempt to establish a sovereign American sphere of influence over the entire Western Hemisphere, the Pacific, and the "American republic" itself, rejecting post-Soviet globalism. Germanicussuggests this aggressive posture is necessary because the U.S. is governed by "sclerotic" elites and domestic instability.1899 GREENLAND
