What if the fastest way to grow isn't moving at all? In this episode, we sit down with Tulsa International Airport CEO, Alexis Higgins, to unpack how a 26‑year journey in one city became a masterclass in influence, trust, and long‑term impact. From a support role to CEO, Alexis shows why deep roots can beat constant motion when you turn visibility, preparation, and relationships into compound career returns.Alexis pulls back the curtain on airport life as a “city within a city." She breaks down how airlines choose new routes, why landing new airline routes take patience and precision, and more. Inside the organization, we explore culture by design, setting goals where none existed, normalizing debate, and anchoring tough decisions on what's best for the airport. Alexis shares practical leadership tools, “to be clear is to be kind,” practicing hard conversations, and creating transparent development paths so people are ready for opportunities before they officially exist. We also get candid about the job market, layoffs, and longer searches, offering concrete steps for visibility, high‑value networking, and asking for precise help.We talk women in aviation, the power of hometown leadership, and more.Alexis's takeaways are both grounded and energizing, find work that gives you joy, volunteer to reset your mind, and keep your attention on what you can control when the world feels heavy. If you're hungry for real talk on career strategy, route development, airport operations, mentorship, and culture change, this conversation delivers clear, actionable insight.Click here for our guest full bio and show notes. Support the showIf you enjoy the episode share it with a friend, leave us a review and don't forget to hit the subscribe button.

Sound is one of the fastest, most powerful systems in the human brain. It can soothe, destabilise, regulate, overwhelm - and, when used intentionally, it can become a profound tool for nervous system support.In this episode of Mindful Mondays, Ashley explores the neuroscience and lived experience of sound for neurodivergent minds. From music and rhythm as ancient emotional language, to binaural beats and brainwave states, humming and vagus nerve activation, ASMR, pink noise, and the surprising science behind tinnitus and musical ear syndrome.We also talk honestly about misophonia, loud noise sensitivity, and the cocktail party effect - and why regulation, not exposure, is the key.The episode closes with a guided theta journey using Alexander Voloshin of Healing Meditation Music's theta binaural beats - an immersive sound experience designed to gently support deep rest, insight, and recalibration.If sound has ever felt like too much - or not enough - this episode will help you understand why, and how to work with it.Headphones recommended.Our Sponsors:

The story moves from miracles to misunderstanding—and that tension is where the deepest formation happens. We step into Acts 21 as Paul is accused, seized, and carried away under the shout of death, and we unpack why long obedience often collides with confusion before it bears any visible fruit. No instant vindication arrives, yet something more resilient takes root: steadiness under pressure and the quiet strength of composure.We walk through how assumptions harden into certainty, how sacred space and identity fuel the crowd's fury, and why Luke refuses to polish the scene. Paul's choice to remain present in Jerusalem—among his own people, with shared Scripture and story—reveals a costly kind of faithfulness. Renewal within established communities is rarely smooth; it is frequently misunderstood before it is received. Still, Paul does not withdraw. Even in chains, he asks to address the crowd, trusting that God can turn interruption into direction and confinement into opportunity.Across the episode, we explore the hard but hopeful truth that obedience does not guarantee clarity. You can do the right thing and still be misread. Yet the mission of God is not dependent on favorable conditions. Sometimes it advances through restraint, through hearings and custody rather than open roads and fast wins. We reflect on Paul's transformed past, his enduring love for Jew and Gentile, and the way grace forms patience for slow, contested spaces. The takeaway is simple and strong: faithfulness is measured by endurance, not applause—and endurance is sustained by presence. If you're facing noise, delay, or misunderstanding, this conversation offers a path to stay rooted in grace and steady on the long way forward.If this resonates, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs courage for a slow road, and leave a rating to help others find it.Support the showIf you enjoyed this episode, consider subscribing to Madison Church on your favorite podcast platform.

Instead of chasing use cases or tools, the focus is on fixing processes, incentives, and operating models. The conversation explores why many AI pilots fail, how ROI thinking can mislead, and why AI should be treated as a new way of working rather than a software upgrade. Practical examples show how small, disciplined changes can unlock productivity, innovation, and meaningful business impact without overinvesting or freezing in fear.

In this episode of The Ebone Zone, we break down one of the strangest crime stories to come out of Florida this year — a case that begins with thousands of dollars in stolen meat and ends with heartbreak, impulse, and a decision that made the entire crime meaningless.Authorities say a 30-year-old man stole nearly $4,000 worth of beef, lamb, pork, and other items from two grocery stores in a matter of minutes, only to discard most of it after discovering his girlfriend cooking with another man. We explore what happened that night, how emotions turned a calculated theft into a pointless act, and the fallout of the man's decision. This isn't just a story about theft. It's about reaction. It's about ego. And it's about what happens when emotion overrides logic.Because sometimes, the real story isn't the crime itself — it's what comes after. This Week's Featured Hashtag#WhenThereAreNoMoviesOther Interesting ThingsThe Bunny Song – VeggieTalesVisit Lindt's Website Send a text to The Ebone Zone!

The thrill of a fresh start is easy to love. The quiet grind of staying when it's ordinary, costly, or unclear—that's where character is forged. We walk through Acts 20 to trace how a fragile young church learned to endure without fireworks, celebrity, or momentum: through a presence that steadies, a humility that tells the truth, and a grace that keeps working when the room empties.We start with the human pull toward beginnings: engagements, baptisms, new roles. Then we move with Paul through cities where he doesn't pitch a plan so much as lend his shoulder. The Greek sense of “encourage” is to strengthen and comfort, and that embodied care sets the tone. A late-night gathering turns tragic when a young man falls from a third-story window, and Luke—the physician-writer watching it all—records his death and restoration. The point is not to crown Paul; it's to reveal a Spirit that remains when leaders move on.From there, we press into leadership with a different currency. Paul doesn't wave results; he invites people to remember his tears, meals, conflicts, and humility. He confesses the Spirit is sending him toward suffering and treats hardship as confirmation of calling, not a detour to avoid. Integrity shows up as alignment between belief and behavior, even when change is slow. Paul's charge to elders is razor clear: guard your heart, then guard the flock. The church is a blood-bought people, not a brand or platform. Distortion is not harmless; it's drift back toward old masters. Vigilance becomes love with a backbone—resisting gossip, celebrity, and cynicism while elevating Christ above preference.We close with four practices for a steady community: stay long enough to be formed, live transparently so your life—not your image—can be seen, guard carefully to shape a healthy culture, and release trustingly when seasons change. Across it all, one anchor holds: grace builds what leadership can't, protects what pressure threatens, and keeps us when impressiveness runs dry. If this season feels heavy or unsure, you're not failing; you're in the space where endurance is formed. Subscribe, share with a friend who needs courage to stay, and leave a review with the one practice you'll put into play this week.Support the showIf you enjoyed this episode, consider subscribing to Madison Church on your favorite podcast platform.

In this Hot Topic episode of The Neurodivergent Experience, Simon Scott is joined by Ashley Dupuy to explore why the news feels so overwhelming — especially for neurodivergent brains.With relentless headlines, graphic footage, political division, and algorithm-driven doom-scrolling, they unpack how constant exposure to crisis can heighten anxiety, disrupt sleep, and intensify black-and-white thinking.Ashley explains the role of the brain's reticular activating system (RAS) — the internal filtering system that shows us more of what we focus on. When we consume dark, catastrophic stories repeatedly, our brains begin scanning the world for more threats, reinforcing anxiety and hypervigilance.They discuss:Doom-scrolling and negativity biasHeightened empathy and justice sensitivityPTSD and re-traumatisation through graphic mediaADHD, stimulation-seeking, and news addictionBlack-and-white thinking in polarised timesThe pressure to “have an opinion” on everythingFeeling powerless outside your circle of controlSocial conversations built around “ain't it awful”News detoxes and intentional media boundariesUsing gratitude and inspiration to rebalance the brainA thoughtful, honest discussion about emotional intensity, media overwhelm, and how to stay informed without sacrificing your nervous system.Our Sponsors:

Send a textIn this installment of 50 Years of Excellence in Women's Athletics at the Naval Academy, we bring you Mary Brigden from the Class of 1981. Mary was an accomplished sailor by the time she was in high school, winning several junior national championships while growing up in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. When she got to Annapolis, where Mary traded in her X-Scow for a 420 and rebuilt her game under coaches who sharpen her skills to get her ready for collegiate racing. She makes strategic choices to collect coed regatta starts, chases All‑American points, and engages is a daily strength training program that sharpens her edge. The result is a skipper ready for a defining test.The ICSA Championships in Charleston, SC deliver that test. With whitecaps and wind in the high gears, rivals expect Navy to fade. Instead, Mary and crew Karen Mulvaney stack top‑three finishes, conserve energy where it matters, and attack when it counts. The final race is a clinic in control: hiking through gusts, holding shape, and driving clean while the fleet eases to survive. The payoff is a big time trifecta—the Madeleine Cup for winning the Women's A‑division, the Gerald C. Miller trophy, given to the best women's team, and the Leonard M. Fowle Trophy, crowning Navy as the 1981 national champions. Finally, there was Mary's history making achievement of being named the first woman All American in any sport at the Naval Academy, the culmination of a long held dream. If you like these kinds of stories, check out the episode.

This week on The VHS Strikes Back, we dive into Erotic Ghost Story (1990), chosen by friend of the show John Hammond — a man clearly unafraid of wandering into the “back shelf” section of the video rental store. Directed by Lam Ngai Kai during the golden age of Hong Kong Category III cinema, this supernatural fantasy blends martial arts, folklore, horror and soft-focus seduction into one uniquely 90s experience.Released at a time when Hong Kong cinema was pushing boundaries with stylised ghost stories and adult-themed genre hybrids, Erotic Ghost Story arrived as part of a wave inspired by the success of films like A Chinese Ghost Story. With elaborate costumes, theatrical lighting, wire-work action and unapologetic late-night cable energy, this is exactly the kind of film you'd discover at 11:47pm with the volume turned suspiciously low. It's mystical. It's chaotic. It's extremely 1990.Trailer Guy Plot SummaryIn a world… where fox spirits walk among us…Three beautiful spirits descend from the mountains with one mission: to experience mortal life. But when a power-hungry sorcerer discovers their presence, desire turns to danger… and temptation awakens forces beyond control.Magic will clash. Loyalties will be tested. Floorboards will creak ominously.This summer… seduction has a supernatural side.Erotic Ghost Story.You were watching it for the kung fu.Fun FactsErotic Ghost Story was released in 1990 during the boom of Hong Kong Category III cinema, the local rating equivalent of adults-only material.The film blends Chinese folklore about fox spirits (huli jing) with martial arts choreography and supernatural horror.Director Lam Ngai Kai became known for stylised fantasy films that leaned heavily into theatrical lighting and elaborate costume design.The movie was part of a wave of sensual supernatural films following the commercial success of romantic fantasy ghost stories in late-80s Hong Kong cinema.Practical wire-work and in-camera effects were used for levitation and fight sequences — no CGI safety net here.The English export title was intentionally provocative to help the film stand out in international VHS markets.Category III films often relied on strong box office from late-night screenings and overseas rental sales.The combination of eroticism and traditional mythology made the film controversial but commercially viable at the time.The film developed a cult following among collectors of 90s Hong Kong fantasy cinema.Its blend of supernatural themes and martial arts action makes it a frequent inclusion in “so-bad-it's-fascinating” VHS-era discussions.Support the ShowIf you enjoy the show and would like to support us, we have a Patreon ⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠.If you're listening on Apple Podcasts or Spotify, leaving us a 5-star review (and a short comment) really helps more people discover the show.

Send a textWelcome to this episode of the Sexier than a Squirrel podcast, the podcast that brings you real-life dog training results, and sometimes human training ones too!This week, Lauren is joined once again by the amazing Alice, to kick off a new series of episodes where we're exploring what concept training actually is and how it applies to real life with your dog. We'll be taking concepts you may have heard us talk about before, breaking them down, and making them practical, relatable, and easy to spot in your own training sessions and day-to-day interactions with your dog. And we're starting with optimism.What if your dog's “reactivity” is really a pessimistic prediction about the world - one you could rewrite it with play? We share how teaching optimism through simple, structured games turned Bonnie, a large mastiff mix with explosive dog-to-dog reactions, into a calm, confident dog who can enjoy off‑lead time with friends and settle peacefully at home.Listen in as Lauren and Alice break down optimism as a practical training concept: when a dog learns to expect good outcomes from ambiguous situations, barking, lunging and hiding give way to curiosity and choice. You'll hear how short, rewarding games reshape neural pathways, why ditching the bowl fuels learning, and how to build habits of calm disengagement around big triggers like cyclists, fireworks and vet handling. Alice shares one of her favourite and most accessible games for boosting optimism with any dog - Noise Box - using everyday items to make novelty safe and fun.This is a story of real change grounded in games-based training, management and community support. We talk measurable wins - faster recovery, softer body language, easier check-ins - and the difference optimism makes beyond reactivity: smoother grooming, kinder vet visits and a shared sense of confidence at both ends of the lead. If you're tired of bracing for the next meltdown, this approach gives you a roadmap that feels kind, achievable and effective.Ready to try it yourself?

Send a textIn this episode of The Riley Black Project, John and Crystal sit down with Blake from Great Lakes Laser Supply to talk about the Michigan Maker Summit—how it started, why smaller meetups matter, and what really happens when makers get in the same room without the pressure of massive expos.What began as an idea on a 17-hour drive home from Next Level turned into a full-blown summit planned in just three weeks—and it worked. This conversation digs into the power of community, intimate breakout sessions, real conversations, and why these smaller events often create bigger breakthroughs than giant conferences.We cover:How the Michigan Maker Summit came together in record timeWhy smaller, more intimate events create safer spaces to ask questionsThe difference between learning online vs learning in personWhy not everyone can make it to Vegas, APA, or massive exposHow meetups help newer makers avoid feeling “stupid” asking questionsWhy teachers learn just as much as attendeesThe hardest part of events: implementing what you learn after you get homeMaker burnout, travel exhaustion, and real-life constraintsThis episode is for makers, creatives, and small business owners who want real growth, real connection, and real implementation—not just motivation that fades when you get home.Support the showIf you enjoy our content, consider supporting us on Patreon!!

Live Between Us – Essential Tracks, Layered Lyrics & Hip ObsessionFully & Completely – The Tragically Hip Podcast SeriesThis week on Fully & Completely, jD and Greg dive into Live Between Us, The Tragically Hip's electrifying 1997 live album — and they're joined by music publicist, historian, and walking encyclopedia Eric Alper.Together, they unpack what makes these tracks “stone cold classics,” how Gord Downie's lyrics evolve over time, and why some songs reveal entirely new meaning decades after first listen.If you've ever sung a Hip lyric confidently… only to realize years later you completely misunderstood it — this episode is for you.

If the word gratitude has ever made you roll your eyes, this episode is for you.This isn't about toxic positivity or pretending everything is fine. It's about neuroscience.In this episode, Ashley explores how gratitude reshapes your Reticular Activating System (RAS) — the brain's internal filter that decides what gets noticed. For neurodivergent nervous systems wired for intensity, pattern recognition, and threat detection, that filter can easily become tuned toward what's overwhelming or missing.Gratitude, practised intentionally, becomes a neural training practice.You'll learn how negativity bias and modern media hijack your attention, why simply searching for something to appreciate changes your brain, and how a simple six-week challenge can gently retrain your inner lens.This is grounded, science-backed, and fully relevant to the lived experience of neurodivergence.Gratitude isn't naive.It's neural.Our Sponsors:

The discussion explores why OKRs and vanity metrics often fail, especially when AI accelerates optimisation without understanding. The core insight is a shift from goal setting to puzzle setting. By framing problems clearly, staying in the discomfort, and learning through small experiments, teams can build products that create long-term value. Practical examples show how this mindset helped recover stalled growth, improve trust, and reduce churn while keeping humans central to AI-driven decisions. 

Send a textWhat if taking your thoughts captive isn't just biblical wisdom—but something that actually changes your brain?In this episode, Patricia Holbrook is joined by Dr. Lee Warren, neurosurgeon, pastor, and author of The Life-Changing Art of Self-Brain Surgery, to explore the powerful intersection of faith, neuroscience, and emotional healing.Dr. Warren explains how repeated thoughts shape the brain over time—and why anxiety, fear, grief, and discouragement can become mental ruts. Together, they unpack what Scripture means when it calls us to take every thought captive, and how intentionally replacing lies with truth can lead to real transformation.If you're familiar with Patricia's book Twelve Inches, you'll recognize this theme immediately: the gap between what we know about God and how we feel and live it out. This episode brings scientific clarity to that spiritual bridge, showing why knowing the truth doesn't always translate into feeling free—and how that can change.

Send a textI survived a bad winter storm that knocked out my heat and electricity for almost a week, so it's good to be back!Speaking of drama, Wuthering Heights is one of my favorite books of all time, so I've been following the crazy anticipation for the Emerald Fennell film adaptation of the story that just opened this weekend. Adapting beloved classic stories for the screen isn't easy – filmmakers will never manage to perfectly interpret the story for every fan of the source material, and they have to earn attention in ways that books don't. Some filmmakers really get it right, though, despite the challenges, and when they manage to honor the original story while staying committed to their own version of it, beloved characters live another day. Classic books have survived for a reason, and I think they can handle all of the red latex corsets thrown at them.https://www.confessionsofaclosetromantic.comIt was certain that this movie was going to be hot and look stunning, no matter what.I think this is the ultimate review of the film and I haven't even seen it yet. A Tale of Two Hotties.Is this the greatest love story of all time?! Or is that our trauma talking? The 1939 adaptation of Wuthering Heights is full of romance with a R and scenery-chewing, and resembles the book only a little, but it's glorious.I will watch the whole 1939 movie just for this scene.I think they got everything I loved about this book exactly right."Based on the timeless love story by Jane Austen" and after that, they need to sell us on it because we are Fans. Well, personally I bought everything this version of Persuasion was selling.It's far from a perfect movie, and I haven't read the book, but the casting and direction of Which Brings Me to You is perfection, and I was glued to the screen from beginning to end.The Pop Culture Happy Hour from NPR is a podcast and newsletter that covers the "buzziest" movies, TV, music, books, video games and more.   Support the showIf you enjoyed this episode, please click share in your podcast app and tell your friends!

Episode SummaryThis week on Nashville Restaurant Radio, we bring you a true “lost episode.” Recorded in the middle of December and somehow never released, this conversation with Josh Cook and Ana Aguilar of Tantísimo feels just as relevant now as it did during the holiday rush.We dive into the realities of the holiday season for small, independent restaurants — the pressure, the unpredictability, and the emotional rollercoaster that comes with slower business periods. Josh and Ana share what it really feels like behind the scenes when traffic dips and why community support during those times matters more than most people realize.This isn't just a restaurant story — it's a story about resilience, neighborhood loyalty, and building something meaningful in Sylvan Park.What We Talk AboutThe December restaurant grind: expectations vs. realityWhy slower seasons can be more stressful than busy onesThe emotional weight small operators carry during the holidaysWhy choosing local over chain restaurants makes a measurable impactThe new hotel opening next door — and how Tantísimo will be providing the foodGrowth without losing neighborhood soulBig Takeaways1. Slower months don't mean lower stakes.For independent restaurants, a few soft weeks can have a serious impact on cash flow, staffing, and momentum.2. Community support isn't symbolic — it's survival.Every reservation, every gift card purchase, every catering order truly moves the needle.3. Smart growth matters.Partnering with the new hotel next door creates built-in opportunity — but it also requires operational precision to execute well.If you care about Nashville's independent restaurant scene, this conversation is a reminder that these businesses are deeply human. Behind every dining room is a family, a payroll, and a dream.And if you've ever wondered whether your choice of where to eat actually matters — the answer is yes.Connect with TantísimoVisit them in Sylvan Park and keep an eye out for their expanded presence with the new hotel partnership launching next door.Support the ShowIf you love conversations like this, subscribe to Nashville Restaurant Radio and share this episode with someone who believes in supporting local.Stronger restaurants.

It's Freedom FridayWhat if you could think and pray like Jesus did? What if you could love the way Jesus did? Does that even seem possible? What keeps us from doing that?Sometimes you might think there's no way you could of be like Jesus and that it's not even worth trying. Or maybe you're afraid to love as much as he did. It's just too much to commit to. But Jesus wanted and expected everyone who believed in him to follow his example of living and loving. In fact, Paul repeats this idea in a letter to the church in Corinth, “We have the mind of Christ.” (See I Corinthians 2:16)In this episode of Freedom Friday, we're going to talk about What it means to have the mind of Christ How you can begin to think, pray, and love more like Jesus.∞∞∞∞∞∞∞SHOW NOTES: Full transcript at thebiblespeakstoyou.com/352Text me your questions or comments.Support the showIf you enjoy the podcast, please rate and leave a review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify__________________James Early, the Jesus Mindset Coach, is a Bible teacher, speaker, and podcaster.

The Tragically Hip On ShuffleThis week on The Tragically Hip On Shuffle, we pull “At Transformation” from Now For Plan A and let it breathe.Is it about Gord Downie's wife's cancer battle? A marriage unraveling? The band's own evolution? Or something more universal — the moment when life tilts and you realize you're different now?jD is joined by Tim (Columbus), Shawn (Edmonton), and Jeff (Vaughan) for a layered, passionate, and occasionally chaotic deep dive into one of the most emotionally charged songs from the later Hip catalogue.

In this episode of The Neurodivergent Experience, Jordan James and Simon Scott explore the powerful impact of the British biographical drama I Swear — a neuroaffirming film based on the life of John Davidson, who developed Tourette's syndrome as a child and later became a speaker and advocate.They reflect on their wider experiences of being neurodivergent — the bullying, blame, masking, rejection, and misunderstanding that shaped their early lives. The film mirrors what it feels like to grow up different in a world that often responds with judgment rather than understanding.Jordan shares memories of being mocked at school and blamed for behaviours he couldn't control, while Simon opens up about the emotional impact of recognising how much he has masked over the years.The conversation also explores how society can “disable” people through discrimination and rigid expectations, and how those social responses create lasting wounds. They reflect on the film's empowering message of turning lived experience into advocacy — and how authentic neurodivergent representation can help transform pain into purpose and community.They discuss:Tourette's syndrome and visible ticsChildhood bullying and social rejectionBeing blamed for behaviours you can't controlMasking and suppressing neurodivergent traitsAnxiety and symptom exacerbationLaw enforcement misunderstandingsDisability vs social disablementGrowing up feeling “othered”Authentic neurodivergent representation in filmTurning lived experience into advocacy and communityAn emotional, reflective episode about neurodivergence, identity, stigma, and the power of storytelling to shift perspective and create change.Our Sponsors:

351 – What do you ask for in your prayers?A new job, a good relationship, to be healed of an emotional problem or physical disease? What about asking God for guidance in what to do with your life and how to fulfill your purpose?Sometimes we ask God for small things and sometimes our prayers have a broader scope. But all too often we don't go as broad and as deep as we could in what we ask for in prayer.  Considering everything that's going on in the world right now, it's time to be bold in what we ask for, like Elisha when he asked for a double portion of Elijah's spirit.In this episode, we're going to talk about what that means and how you and I can do it today.∞∞∞∞∞∞∞SHOW NOTES: For a full transcript and all Bible quotes thebiblespeakstoyou.com/351Text me your questions or comments.Support the showIf you enjoy the podcast, please rate and leave a review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify__________________James Early, the Jesus Mindset Coach, is a Bible teacher, speaker, and podcaster.
