We brought Robin Dreeke the footage, the operation, the contradictions, and the silence. We asked him every question this case demands — and his answers are something you need to hear for yourself.Dreeke spent 21 years at the FBI and ran the Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program. We asked him to apply his behavioral framework to every movement in the surveillance clips and tell us whether the man on that porch matches the operation that happened around him. We asked what the footage reveals about whoever planned this — the target selection, the camera removal, the silent extraction — and what the gap between what this man was told and what he clearly wasn't tells us about whoever was directing him. We asked about the 41-minute timeline gap. We asked what happens when they identify this man.Then we gave him the communications. The family's four escalating videos. The FBI's social media release with no press briefing. The sheriff's complete reversal on the footage. The ransom notes with insider details but no proof of life. The silence after the deadline passed.We asked Dreeke to read every public voice and tell us who's being straight, who's managing a narrative, and what the gaps between statements reveal about where this case actually stands. His answers reframe how you look at everything in this investigation.#NancyGuthrie #RobinDreeke #HiddenKillers #FBIBehavioral #FullInterview #DeceptionDetection #TucsonKidnapping #CatalinaFoothills #SavannahGuthrie #TrueCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Audra Lynn Fasano joins Tony to share her firsthand experience of being drawn into Jeffrey Epstein's network, beginning with her time at the Playboy Mansion and escalating into blackmail, intelligence ties, and operating as a middleman between elites. She recounts how threats against her family forced her deeper into the web, and why she believes Epstein was only one cog in a much larger machine. The conversation moves beyond trafficking into increasingly dark territory, ritual abuse, bloodline targeting, CRISPR technology, transhumanism, and what Audra sees as a modern Babylonian control system still unfolding today. She connects ancient sites, Nephilim lore, and elite funding networks to current technological initiatives, arguing that the end goal reaches far beyond exploitation. Through it all, Audra emphasizes spiritual warfare, deliverance, and returning to Christ as the only true protection in an escalating battle. This is a sobering discussion about power, deception, and why discernment may be more critical now than ever.Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer.

We want your feedback and questions. Text us here.When was the last time someone at work told you something you genuinely did not want to hear? As uncomfortable as it can be, hearing uncomfortable truths is necessary if you want to be a successful leader. Silence is not a sign that everything is going well! The more positional authority you have, the more people feel like they should be cautious and deferential around you. Today's episode is about why leaders struggle to get feedback, how it erodes leadership effectiveness, and what great leaders do differently to make sure they are not leading in an echo chamber.

The ransom deadline passed. No follow-through. No proof of life. No verified contact. We asked Robin Dreeke what that silence means — and it's not the only contradiction we put in front of him.Dreeke ran the FBI's Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program. His career was reading communications for authenticity and detecting when what people say doesn't match what they know. We asked him to assess every public voice in the Nancy Guthrie investigation.The family has released four escalating videos. The FBI says there's been no verified kidnapper contact. Those two positions exist at the same time. Ransom notes arrived at media outlets with insider details — but no proof of life and no way for the family to respond. The sheriff said the Nest footage was permanently gone. Ten days later the FBI says private sector partners recovered it. The director released it on his personal X account with no press briefing.We asked Dreeke to read each of these. We asked which voices are communicating authentically and which are managing a narrative. We asked what the gaps between public statements reveal about what's actually happening. And we asked what the silence after the deadline tells a deception analyst about whether the ransom threat was ever real.#NancyGuthrie #RobinDreeke #RansomDeadline #HiddenKillers #DeceptionDetection #NarrativeControl #FBIBehavioral #RansomNotes #SavannahGuthrie #TrueCrimeJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

In this episode of the Healthy, Wealthy and Smart podcast, Dr. Karen Litzy speaks with Arielle Loupos, founder of Flower Girl, about the often-stigmatized topic of menstrual care and period products. They discuss harmful ingredients in traditional menstrual products, the importance of sustainable, non-toxic alternatives, and cycle syncing as a tool for self-awareness and empowerment. Arielle shares her journey creating Flower Girl and emphasizes the need for open conversations about menstruation to break the stigma and promote women's health. Takeaways Menstrual care is often surrounded by misinformation and stigma. Traditional period products may contain harmful chemicals and toxins. Organic labeling on menstrual products can be misleading. Sustainable and non-toxic alternatives are essential for women's health. Cycle syncing can enhance self-awareness and optimize daily life. Women should honor their menstrual cycles and allow for rest. Understanding menstrual health is crucial for overall well-being. Open conversations about menstruation can empower women. Education about menstruation should start at a young age. Women's health research needs to be prioritized and expanded.

Everyone in this case is talking. We asked Robin Dreeke to listen to what they're not saying.Dreeke ran the FBI's Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program. His career was determining when communications are authentic and when they're managed. Tonight we put every public voice in the Nancy Guthrie investigation in front of him.The Guthrie family has released four videos escalating from prayers to direct communication with the alleged kidnapper. The FBI simultaneously says there's been no verified kidnapper contact. Ransom notes sent to three media outlets contained insider crime scene details but no proof of life and no way to respond back. The sheriff declared footage permanently gone, then the FBI produced it ten days later from backend data. The director released it on social media with no press briefing.We asked Dreeke to assess the family's escalation and what it reveals about their belief state. We asked him to evaluate the ransom communications as a whole — the content, the delivery method, the phrasing, the absence of proof of life. We asked whether the footage reversal fits genuine error or deliberate strategy. And we asked about the silence after the ransom deadline passed — what the absence of follow-through tells a deception analyst about whether the threat was real.

Walk Your Buyer's Journey: Finding the Friction Points Killing Your Customer Experience When was the last time you actually experienced what it's like to be a customer of your own company? Most operators and Seconds-In-Command are so deep in the weeds of delivery that they've never walked the buyer's journey from first contact to final goodbye, which means customer experience issues go unnoticed until they become complaints. The exercise is simple but revealing: map out every single step from that first phone call or website visit all the way through fulfillment, including timelines between steps and who the customer interacts with at each point. Together you'll cover a case studio of a company that discovered two major friction points through this process. The businesses winning right now aren't always the ones with the best product or pricing - they're the ones making it easy and pleasant to work with. You'll hear all about: 00:29 - Introduction: Walking the buyer's journey - what does it actually look like to do business with you 01:02 - The reality check: It's rare that you have firsthand experience being a customer of your own company 01:14 - Why minor problems go unnoticed until they become customer complaints 01:26 - The exercise: Start mapping from the very first phone call, email, or website visit 01:47 - How to map it: Take a blank piece of paper and document every single step, no matter how small 02:15 - Include timelines between steps and who in your company interacts with the buyer at each point 02:37 - Map all the way to the last touch: fulfillment, project close-out, or the final goodbye 02:45 - Two key things to analyze: How many people are they interacting with? Where are the significant time gaps? 03:16 - Critical insight: Buyer's remorse sets in as soon as payment is processed 03:37 - Real example: Landscaping company case study reveals two major issues 03:50 - Issue #1: Admin takes initial info, then client waits a week or more for the design team to contact them 04:14 - Issue #2: Multiple waiting periods create a roller coaster of excitement and frustration 04:57 - The harsh truth: Silence and time kill deals 05:17 - How gaps create anxiety even for clients who stick around 05:23 - The coffee shop analogy: Two long lines might look like success, but customers are actually frustrated 06:03 - Important caveat: Not every gap is bad - custom work takes time, but are you managing expectations? 06:19 - Your homework: Walk the buyer's journey yourself or have a team member act as an internal secret shopper 07:00 - Level up move: Ask a recent customer to walk you through their experience (15 minutes of insight) 07:17 - Fall retreat preview and the four CSat questions discussed at the last event 08:05 - Question #1: Who owns customer satisfaction? (If everyone owns it, no one owns it) 08:33 - Question #2: What decisions in the past year impacted CSat most (positive or negative)? 08:43 - Question #3: What complaints led to the most significant operations changes? 08:53 - Question #4: What opportunities exist in your buyer's journey to improve customer experience?

Sometimes not having anything to say is priceless. Sitting with a friend praying silently. Is the best gift you can offer at a difficult time.
Stuck in the Silence? The old maps—standard devotionals and "trying harder"—won't work here. You need new coordinates. I wrote a comprehensive guide on the metaphysics of the Dark Night and how to navigate it without losing your mind.Start Here: Read the Field Guide https://midnightcarmelite.com/darknight/In this episode, Dr. Larry Chapp and Andrew analyze the "Law of Proportionate Polarization" and the modern crisis of the "Bureaucratic Register". We discuss why the contemporary institution often fails to address the spiritual crisis because it ignores the "Sanctified Register of the Saint". By attempting to manage the Holy Spirit through programs and synods, the modern church risks losing its "Epistemic Humility" and the essential mystery of the faith. This conversation serves as a triage for the soul caught between a world of "sticks and stuff" and the call to a sacrificial, contemplative life.
Hidden Killers With Tony Brueski | True Crime News & Commentary
Multiple ransom notes. A confirmed imposter. A family offering six million in Bitcoin. And absolute silence from whoever may have taken Nancy Guthrie. Criminal defense attorney Bob Motta joins Hidden Killers to walk through what is actually happening in this case nine days after Nancy vanished from her Catalina Foothills home — and why the ransom situation may already be beyond salvageable for investigators.Ransom notes demanding millions in Bitcoin were sent to TMZ, KOLD, and KGUN. Harvey Levin confirmed the wallet address is real and called the note carefully crafted. But a man in Los Angeles was arrested for sending imposter texts to the Guthrie family referencing the same Bitcoin demand. A second email arrived at KOLD from a different IP using the same anonymous server type. Motta explains what happens to an investigation when the ransom channel has been infiltrated by copycats and the real signal is buried in noise.The family has posted four videos on Instagram — each more desperate than the last. They started asking for proof of life. They are now saying they are at an hour of desperation. CNN's Andrew McCabe says the tone suggests no contact has been made. Motta breaks down what the escalation in those videos and the complete absence of any response tells us about the reality of this case.President Trump told reporters Friday that investigators have "very strong clues" and that a "solution" — not a search — may be coming from DOJ or FBI. Motta explains what it means when a sitting president starts publicly narrating the trajectory of an active investigation.The family has offered to pay the full six-million-dollar ransom. The FBI says the call is theirs. Motta walks through Bitcoin traceability, whether the payment becomes evidence, and what the FBI's reward language — "and/or the arrest and conviction" — reveals about how this case is being framed behind closed doors.#NancyGuthrie #HiddenKillers #BobMotta #RansomNotes #BitcoinRansom #GuthrieFamily #FBIReward #TrumpGuthrie #RansomImposter #CatalinaFoothillsJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

DO MPs REALLY WORK FOR US – OR JUST THEMSELVES? #PMQs #KeirStarmer #KemiBadenoch #UKPolitics #JonGaunt #JonGauntTV PMQs today wasn't politics — it was a slanging match in a circus. While millions are skint, scared, and angry, MPs were back in their natural habitat: shouting, sneering and doing absolutely nothing useful. No serious focus on the cost-of-living crisis. No urgency on public safety. No answers people can actually use. Instead, in the Commons, Kemi Badenoch accused the Prime Minister of "stuffing government with paedophile apologists" And what did the country get in response from Starmer? Evasion. Silence. Lawyer's answers to moral questions. This is why trust in politics is dead. This is why people feel unrepresented. And this is why voters increasingly believe MPs are in it for themselves — not the people who pay their wages. Tonight we ask the question MPs hate: Do they work for us — or are they just feeding at the trough? Live. Interactive. No manners. No mercy. #PMQs #KeirStarmer #KemiBadenoch #Labour #Conservatives #Westminster #UKPolitics #CostOfLivingCrisis #PublicSafety #PoliticalElites #SnoutsInTheTrough #MPs #BrokenPolitics #Establishment #Parliament #JonGaunt #JonGauntTV PMQs, Keir Starmer, Kemi Badenoch, Labour, Conservatives, Westminster, UK politics, cost of living crisis, public safety, political elites, snouts in the trough, MPs, broken politics, establishment, Parliament, Jon Gaunt, Jon Gaunt TV This is political blogging and hard-hitting social commentary from Triple Sony Gold Award-winning talk radio legend, Jon Gaunt — former host on BBC, Talk Radio, and Sky News.

Mardi 10 février 2026. C'est le premier des trois jours de grèves annoncées par l'intersyndicale d'Ubisoft suite aux annonces faites par Yves Guillemot le 21 janvier. En résumé, dans une communication destinée d'abord aux investisseurs et à la presse, puis ensuite aux salariés, le PDG historique expliquait la réorganisation de l'entreprise en grandes structures appelées «creative houses», et annonçait la poursuite du très gros plan d'économie de ces dernières années de 300 millions d'euros pour sabrer 200 millions d'euros supplémentaires. On apprenait aussi l'abandon de six jeux en développement dont le remake de Prince of Persia Sands of time, et le report de sept autres. Et puis, au détour d'un paragraphe qui semblait posé là un peu par hasard, sans trop de rapport avec le reste, on a découvert, en même temps que les salariés du groupe, la fin du télétravail et le retour en présentiel 5 jours par semaine. Quelques heures plus tard, l'intersyndicale d'Ubisoft appelait à trois jours de grèves. Le premier jour a été suivi selon elle par 1200 personnes sur les 3800 salariés français.Mardi, on s'est donc rendu à Saint-Mandé, avenue Pasteur, là où se tient le piquet de grève qui réunit les salariés du siège et ceux du studio Ubisoft Paris. D'autres ont eu lieu au même moment à Lyon, Montpellier, Annecy et Bordeaux. On a pu poser quelques questions aux salariés et aux représentants syndicaux présents.Pour commenter cette émission, donner votre avis ou simplement discuter avec notre communauté, connectez-vous au serveur Discord de Silence on joue!Soutenez Silence on joue en vous abonnant à Libération avec notre offre spéciale à 6€ par mois : https://offre.liberation.fr/soj/Silence on joue ! c'est l'émission hebdo de jeux vidéo de Libération, avec Erwan Cario et Marius Chapuis.CRÉDITSSilence on joue ! est un podcast de Libération animé par Erwan Cario.

Silence is Golden #RTTBROS #Nightlight Silence is Golden #RTTBROS #Nightlight "He that is void of wisdom despiseth his neighbour: but a man of understanding holdeth his peace." Proverbs 11:12 (KJV)There is a quiet strength in knowing when to speak and when to simply be still. Solomon draws a sharp contrast here, the fool rushes to tear down his neighbor with words, but the man of understanding holds his peace. That word holdeth carries weight; it isn't passive silence born of indifference, it is a deliberate, disciplined choice. How often do we mistake the urge to speak our mind for wisdom, when the truly wise response is a closed mouth and a steady heart? The world rewards the loudest voice in the room, but God honors the one who has learned that not every thought needs an audience, not every offense demands a response, and not every conflict is ours to win. Friend, the next time your patience is tested and your tongue is ready to fire, pause. That pause may be the most powerful thing you do all day. A man of understanding holds his peace, because he knows that God's justice is far more reliable than his own reaction.
Stuck in the Silence?The old maps—standard devotionals and "trying harder"—won't work here. You need new coordinates.I wrote a comprehensive guide on the metaphysics of the Dark Night and how to navigate it without losing your mind.Start Here: Read the Field Guide https://midnightcarmelite.com/darknight/We often mistake spiritual activity for spiritual progress. When the sensible consolations of prayer vanish, our natural human instinct is to "panic-buy" our way back into God's presence through more rosaries, more retreats, and more mental strain. However, this is not a lack of effort; it is a misunderstanding of the metaphysics of the Light. By virtue of your Baptism, you are already in the Light—but an "Excess of Light" can feel like total darkness. The resentment you feel toward a "broken contract" with God is the signal that you are trying to navigate a new landscape with an old, broken map.The Myth of Spiritual Volume: Why adding more vocal prayers during a period of dryness is often a defense mechanism against the actual surgery God is performing.The Metaphysics of Baptism: Understanding your permanent mark as an adopted child of God and why you cannot "fall out" of His light, even when it feels blinding or absent.Productive vs. Unproductive Mortification: How to stop "spiritual thrashing" and pivot toward disciplined detachment from specific habits (like doom-scrolling) rather than mental exhaustion in prayer.The Unique Dialogue: Why universal prescriptions often fail and the necessity of returning to the life of Christ in the Gospels as the "Final Word" of your direction.

We speak because we are afraid to be still. We speak because silence exposes us. We speak because when the mouth closes the heart begins to make noise and that noise is often unbearable. The Fathers knew this long before psychology gave it names. They knew that speech is not neutral. It is not just communication. It is an outflow of what is ruling the inner world. Every word carries the weight of the heart behind it. This is why Abba Pambo could stand at death and say that he had not repented of a single word and yet also say that he had not even begun to serve God. He knew what speech costs. He knew how easily a careless phrase can wound another, harden the self or invite the demons into the space between people. He did not trust his own clarity. He waited. He let months pass rather than speak a word that was not born from God. That kind of restraint feels almost inhuman to us. We live in a world that rewards immediacy. We are trained to answer quickly, react quickly, express quickly, post quickly, correct quickly. But speed is not truth. Speed is often panic wearing a clever face. The monk who waits to speak is not slow. He is standing before God inside himself. He is listening for something that is not his own. The Elder says that a man can be silent with his lips and loud with his heart. That is the most damning line in this whole section. You can say nothing and still be screaming. You can be quiet and still be condemning everyone around you. You can appear peaceful while your mind is devouring your brothers. Another man can speak all day and yet remain silent because he refuses to let his words become weapons, judgments or self display. Silence is not a style. It is a spiritual state. Idle talk is not mostly obscene or stupid. It is unnecessary. It is speech that does not serve salvation. It is talk that fills the space so we do not have to face what is happening inside. We speak about bodies and opinions and events and annoyances and plans because these are safer than the truth of our hearts. The moment we speak about what is good we discover how quickly evil slips in. Pride sneaks into holy words. Comparison sneaks into spiritual conversation. The self sneaks into everything. This is why the Elder answers the brother who wants a word to be saved with something that sounds almost trivial. Do not hasten to speak before you consider what you are going to say. That is not etiquette. That is warfare. To pause before speaking is to interrupt the automatic rule of the ego. It is to refuse to let the tongue be driven by irritation, hunger for recognition or the need to be right. It is to create a small space where God might enter. Most of what we say is not meant to help anyone. It is meant to regulate ourselves. We speak to soothe anxiety. We speak to discharge frustration. We speak to draw attention. We speak to feel real. We speak to avoid the ache of not being in control. The mouth becomes a narcotic. The more we use it the less we notice how enslaved we are to it. This is why the Fathers are so severe. They are not moralizing. They are diagnosing a sickness. The soul that cannot keep watch over its words cannot keep watch over its thoughts. The heart that pours itself out through constant speech cannot remain gathered before God. It leaks. It disperses. It becomes weak. The tragedy is that we confuse expression with honesty. We think that saying what we feel is the same as bringing it to God. It is not. Most of the time it just feeds the feeling. It strengthens the pattern. It builds a little kingdom around the self. We call it authenticity but it is often captivity. The monk learns slowly and painfully that every word either bends him toward God or bends him toward himself. There is no neutral speech. Either it deepens prayer or it corrodes it. Either it builds communion or it sows division. Either it creates space for grace or it fills the room with ego. This is why the saint waits. This is why the Elder warns. This is why the Fathers tremble before idle talk. They have seen what words do to the heart. They have watched souls unravel because the mouth was never taught to kneel. To learn silence is not to become mute. It is to become true. It is to let God have the first and last word inside you. And until that happens every sentence we speak is a small gamble with our soul. --- Text of chat during the group: 00:00:31 Fr. Charbel Abernethy: Page 353 00:01:32 Fr.

The Fathers do not treat speech as a social matter. They treat it as a matter of life and death. Because speech reveals what the heart lives from. A man may fast and remain proud. He may pray and remain full of illusion. He may withdraw outwardly and still remain inhabited by noise. But when he speaks, the truth emerges. The tongue betrays what the heart serves. Christ says with terrifying simplicity, “Out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.” Matthew 12:34 He does not say the mouth creates. He says the mouth reveals. Speech is the manifestation of inner condition. The Evergetinos preserves the fierce sobriety of the Fathers on this point because they knew that speech is not neutral. Speech either dissipates the heart or gathers it into God. Abba Arsenius fled from men not because he hated them but because he feared what his own mouth might do. He had been formed in the courts of emperors. He knew the seduction of words. He knew how easily speech strengthens the illusion of the self. He heard a voice saying, “Flee, be silent, pray always.” Not because silence is virtuous in itself, but because silence exposes the poverty of the heart. When a man falls silent, he encounters himself. He encounters the anxiety that drives speech. The need to affirm himself. The need to be seen. The need to exist in the minds of others. Speech often becomes the way the ego sustains its continuity. Each word reinforces the illusion that the self is real, stable, necessary. This is why idle speech is so dangerous. Not because the words themselves are always evil, but because they feed the false center. St. John Climacus writes that talkativeness is the throne of vainglory, the sign of ignorance, the doorway of slander, and the cooling of compunction. Every unnecessary word strengthens forgetfulness of God. Not dramatically. Quietly. Almost imperceptibly. The heart that was once gathered becomes scattered. The attention that was once turned inward toward repentance becomes turned outward toward managing impressions. A man begins by speaking carelessly. He ends by living carelessly. The Evergetinos recounts how the elders guarded their speech with ferocity. Not because they had nothing to say, but because they feared losing the presence of God. They understood that the more a man speaks, the more he lives outside himself. And the more he lives outside himself, the more he forgets God. Abba Poemen said, “If a man remembers that he must give an account of every idle word, he will choose silence.” Not because silence is safer socially. Because silence is safer spiritually. Christ Himself says, “For every idle word men speak, they will give account on the day of judgment.” Matthew 12:36 Every idle word. This is not exaggeration. It is revelation. Because every idle word strengthens a life lived apart from God. Speech gives substance to illusion. It allows the ego to feel real. To feel present. To feel established. This is why men fear silence. Silence removes reinforcement. Silence reveals instability. Silence reveals dependency. Silence reveals that without constant affirmation, the ego begins to tremble. The Fathers did not seek silence as technique. They sought silence as truth. In silence, a man begins to see that he does not yet exist in God. He exists in the reflection of himself in the minds of others. Speech sustains that reflection. Silence destroys it. This destruction feels like death. Because something is dying. The false self that lives from recognition. The Evergetinos shows us elders who would rather appear foolish than speak unnecessarily. Who would rather remain misunderstood than protect themselves with words. Because they had discovered something terrible and liberating. Words cannot save the soul. Only God can save the soul. And God is found not in noise, but in poverty. St. Isaac the Syrian writes that the man who has come to know himself guards his tongue as one standing before fire. Because he knows how easily the heart can be emptied of grace. Speech is not evil. But uncontrolled speech reveals an uncontrolled heart. The man who speaks constantly has not yet learned to stand before God. Because the man who stands before God begins to see himself truthfully. And seeing himself truthfully, he loses the need to speak. Not because he despises others. Because he no longer needs to sustain himself. His life begins to be hidden with Christ in God. And the tongue, once restless and hungry, becomes quiet. Not forced into silence. But stilled by the presence of God. This is the path the Fathers walked. They did not seek eloquence. They sought reality. And reality begins when the mouth stops protecting the self and the heart begins to stand naked before God. --- Text of chat during the group: 00:02:32 Fr.

Content Warning: This episode contains detailed discussions of childhood sexual abuse, domestic violence, physical abuse, substance abuse, and suicide. Listener discretion is strongly advised.In this powerful episode of The Human Experience, host Jennifer Peterkin sits down with Ruth Carroll—a survivor whose story spans decades of unimaginable abuse, yet who now stands as a beacon of hope and resilience.Ruth's story begins in the innocence of childhood, with memories of happy Christmases and playing in the front yard. But at age six, when her parents divorced without explanation, everything changed. Moving in with her grandparents at seven, Ruth entered a world of psychological, physical, and sexual abuse. From there, Ruth's life became a devastating cycle: constant abuse, relocations every six months that prevented her from forming friendships, a near-abduction at 15 that nearly ended in murder, running away at 16 to escape into an 18-year abusive marriage, and even encounters with demonic worship and threats against her life.Yet through it all—through two suicide attempts, years of being told she was worthless, and a nervous system perpetually on high alert—Ruth found unexpected gifts: a calling as an EMT where her trauma became her superpower, the strength to learn karate and car mechanics to prepare her escape, and ultimately, a relationship with God that anchored her healing.Now remarried for the right reasons, a professional photographer, and the author of a memoir, “Held By His Hands”, Ruth shares her story - not for shock value, but to tell even one person: You don't have to live like this. You are not alone. There is a way out.This is a story of survival, resilience, and the evergreen journey to true healing.This episode was recorded in West Chester, Pennsylvania.MEET RUTH CARROLL:From the age of seven to thirty-five, Ruth's life was shaped in shadows—learning how to survive before she ever learned how to feel safe. Ruth walked through years of abuse, silence, and fear, carrying wounds no one could see. She escaped with her life, but I did not escape alone. God met her in the darkest places, lifted her from what tried to destroy her, and taught her heart how to breathe again. What was meant to break her became the soil where faith and healing took root. Ruth's story is one of survival, surrender, and the quiet power of grace.CONNECT WITH RUTH:Purchase Ruth's Memoir - Held By His HandsRuth's FacebookHeld By His Hands FacebookRuth's InstagramKEY TAKEAWAYSAbuse creates distorted normal: When abuse starts in childhood, victims have no baseline for healthy relationships—everything abusive becomes "normal."Abusers isolate their victims: Constant moving, controlling money, disabling cars, and cutting off support systems are all tactics to maintain power.Strangulation is a red flag for lethality: Non-fatal strangulation is one of the strongest predictors that an abuser will eventually kill their victim.Trauma can become a gift in unexpected ways: Ruth's history of trauma gave her unique resilience as an EMT—her different baseline allowed her to help others in crisis.Healing is not linear and takes time: Ruth didn't begin true healing until her 50s, after multiple failed relationships and years of codependency.You don't need to understand everything to escape: Ruth learned karate, car mechanics, and saved money without a clear plan—she just knew she needed skills to survive.Building community is important: The church gave Ruth her first understanding that she was loved and that the abuse wasn't her fault.Children need to be told what's happening: Ruth's parents never explained the divorce—this lack of information left her feeling abandoned and confused for decades.Breaking codependency requires solitude: Ruth needed five years living completely alone before she could enter a healthy relationship.You can break generational cycles: Ruth gave her children the boundaries and values she never received, even though she felt like she was failing them.IF YOU ARE IN CRISIS:National Domestic Violence Hotline: 1-800-799-7233National Sexual Assault Hotline: 1-800-656-4673National Suicide Prevention Lifeline: 988________________________________________________STAY CONNECTEDThe Human Experience Podcast | Instagram | FacebookThe Human Experience Legacies | InstagramConnect with Jennifer on Substack | LinkedInSupport the Podcast

Faced with the threat of a snap General Election — one that would have wiped out half the Cabinet and a good chunk of the back benches — they folded. Fast. This wasn't loyalty. This wasn't leadership. This was pure self-preservation. These morally bankrupt MPs weren't backing Starmer — they were backing their own snouts staying firmly in the trough. And while they clapped like trained seals, Starmer still hasn't delivered the documents he promised last week explaining how the vetting process cleared Mandelson. Who approved it? How? On what grounds? Silence. Now ministers are being warned not to "do a Wes Streeting" — no more cosy texts, no more receipts, no more evidence. Keep it quiet. Keep it buried. Nothing to see here. It stinks. And it stinks of a cover-up. By circling the wagons, they've sealed their own fate. The public won't forget — and they'll get the chance to say so very soon, starting with the Manchester by-election and rolling straight into the Spring council elections. Saved for now.

Slow down!Today on Overflow with Kimberly Snider, we're talking about something so many high-achieving women crave but rarely give themselves permission to experience: silence, strategic thinking time, and choosing ourselves first.I'm thrilled to welcome Emma Marriott — HR entrepreneur, people & culture strategist, listener, engager, and empowerer. Emma describes herself as an ambivert — someone who can love connection and conversation, and also deeply value quiet, solitude, and space to think.Emma recently took a 10-day course in silence, and I love how she describes that experience — that moment of, “Ignorance is bliss… what did I sign up for?” — which quickly became more like, “the teacher appears when the student is ready.” Through meditation, stillness, and sitting with her own thoughts, she discovered calm, clarity, and a different level of strategic thinking that silence can create.Emma writes beautifully about the reality so many of us are living right now — that somewhere along the way, caring for everyone else became more important than caring for ourselves. And now we're paying for it with burnout, resentment, exhaustion, and the feeling of being constantly behind. In her recent blog she says, “2026 needs to be the year we get a little more selfish.” Not selfish in the negative sense — but selfish as in reclaiming energy, time, peace, and boundariesas responsible leadership.Connect with Emma Marriott here:Website: iris-hr.comLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/emma-marriott-/By the way ...Grab this 5 page sneak-peek of the 90-Days in OVERFLOW Journal This isn't another journal.It is a reset.

Why does silence feel awkward to some people… and respectful to others? In this episode, we break down one of the most misunderstood aspects of human communication: high-context vs low-context cultures — and how it shapes what we perceive as politeness, rudeness, confidence, or even arrogance. From the UK, US, Japan, Australia, and beyond, we explore: Why silence creates anxiety in Western cultures How hierarchy changes what people are allowed to say Why humour works in some cultures — and backfires in others How politeness acts as a bridge across cultural divides If you've ever thought “that person was rude” — this conversation might completely change how you see people… and yourself.

From underground bunkers and journals that framed suffering as sacred, to a safe that opened with 1-2-3-4-5-6, the details are chilling but the lessons matter.We also draw a clear line between grace-centered Christian faith and any system religious or therapeutic that:Isolates family membersBans outside communicationPunishes vulnerabilityHarms children under the banner of purity or “truth”Along the way, we talk plainly about:The red flags neighbors and viewers now wish they'd reportedHow family vlogging can drift into exploitationWhy therapy must never become command or cohabitationHealthy digital boundaries: opt-in consent, revocable participation, no child-as-employee dynamics⚠️ If you suspect child abuse, document patterns, trust your instincts, and call 1-800-422-4453 (1-800-4A-CHILD). Silence protects systems speaking up protects kids.Stay to the end for a powerful trailer from our friend Sanchez Tannehill's God Did It short film, an essential reminder that restoration is real, and darkness doesn't get the final word.If this episode helped you think differently about online family content, counseling ethics, or how to intervene when something feels off:

Join Pastor Dave Mudd for Week 6 of our "Follow Me" series as we explore what it truly means to live the gospel by following the prayer life of Jesus. In this transformative message, we dive deep into the primary theme of intimacy with God, learning that our public walk with Christ is only as strong as our private dependence on Him. Whether you are battling the distractions of digital noise or struggling with the weight of self-reliance, this message offers a roadmap to rediscovering the "secret place." Discover how to move past religious duty and into a life-giving relationship where prayer becomes the very air you breathe. It's time to silence the noise and hear the voice of the Father.Bulleted Key Takeaways:- Prioritize the Secret Place: Learn why Jesus made solitary prayer a lifestyle rather than an emergency plan, and how you can establish your own sacred daily appointment.- Kill Self-Reliance: Understand why self-reliance is the greatest enemy of prayer and how to embrace a posture of total dependence on God.- Silence the Digital Noise: Gain practical insights on how to reclaim your attention from technology to foster spiritual stillness and focus.- Listen, Don't Just Talk: Move beyond one-sided "talking prayer" to "listening prayer," learning to discern the Holy Spirit's voice in the quiet.- Meditate for the Soul: Transition from merely consuming Scripture to soul-feeding meditation that transforms your identity and perspective.

Il y a des histoires d'amour qui commencent très fort… mais qui mettent longtemps à oser exister.Des histoires où la petite voix se fait entendre dès le premier regard, mais où il faut des années pour trouver le courage de l'écouter vraiment.Dans cet épisode, je reçois Emmanuel.Un homme réservé, sensible, profondément loyal à ses émotions, qui est tombé amoureux d'une femme sur les bancs de la fac… et qui a gardé ce sentiment intact pendant plus de vingt ans.À quelques jours de la Saint-Valentin, j'avais envie de vous proposer une histoire d'amour différente.Une histoire qui parle moins de grands élans spectaculaires que de timidité, de retenue, de peurs très humaines, et de ce moment précis où l'on comprend que rester immobile fait parfois plus mal que de se lancer.Bienvenue dans un épisode doux et courageux.Aujourd'hui, avec Emmanuel, nous allons parler d'un déjeuner amical anodin qui devient un véritable point de bascule, de deux petits poussins de Pâques restés trop longtemps sur un siège de voiture, et d'un obscur “cahier des charges” qui n'a rien à voir avec l'informatique… mais tout à voir avec l'amour.RÉSUMÉ DE L'ÉPISODE AVEC EMMANUEL00:00 – Le premier regard à la fac et ce sentiment immédiat qui bouleverse tout03:40 – Une timidité paralysante et une histoire qui n'ose pas commencer09:20 – Les retrouvailles inattendues après douze ans et le retour intact des émotions12:50 – Le déjeuner de mars 2019 qui change la trajectoire d'une vie18:40 – La petite voix qui s'impose dans le corps et ne laisse plus le choix21:00 – Le recours à un psy pour apprendre à dépasser la peur d'aimer24:20 – Le fameux “cahier des charges” et les rendez-vous pleins de retenue27:00 – Les deux poussins de Pâques et la décision de tout dire enfin30:45 – L'attente, le doute, puis l'ouverture progressive à une nouvelle histoire34:00 – Aimer, se faire confiance et transformer toute sa vie personnelle et professionnelleamour silencieux • timidité amoureuse • oser en amour • peur d'aimer • histoire d'amour vraieSi vous aimez La petite voix, je compte sur vous pour laisser des commentaires, des étoiles ✨ et des bonnes notes sur votre plateforme de podcast préférée.

She never thought of herself as someone who attracted strange experiences. A few odd moments over the years, maybe—but nothing persistent. Nothing that suggested sensitivity. Her niece, however, was different. Quiet about it. Careful not to draw attention. But undeniably aware.When her niece came to stay in a small basement apartment, nothing seemed out of the ordinary at first. A walking tour through historic neighborhoods felt harmless. The apartment felt familiar. Normal. But certain moments didn't sit right—sounds that stopped instead of finishing, reactions that came before explanations, animals that froze without warning.As time passed, unease followed her beyond the apartment and into places that should have felt safe. Subtle changes in atmosphere replaced obvious signs. Silence became meaningful. Space felt occupied.#RealGhostStoriesOnline #ParanormalExperience #SensitiveAbilities #HauntedApartment #ShadowFigures #UnexplainedEncounters #SomethingFollowed #TrustYourInstincts #CreepingDread #TrueGhostStoryLove real ghost stories?

The Pima County Sheriff's Department just shut down press briefings in the Nancy Guthrie case. No scheduled updates unless "significant developments occur." Nine days in, the official position is still no suspects, no persons of interest, no vehicles. But what reporters and drone cameras have documented over the past 48 hours paints an entirely different picture. Sunday morning — investigators probing a septic tank behind Nancy's property. Saturday night — three hours of forensic work inside Annie Guthrie's home, photography flashes through windows, deputies leaving with evidence bags and latex gloves. A retired FBI Special Agent called it evidence extraction. A gas station employee told Fox News Digital investigators were looking for "a guy that got away." Topographic search grids carried into headquarters. The crime scene released after a single day, then re-entered five consecutive times. A rooftop camera missed for five full days. The ransom notes that have consumed the public conversation provided no proof of life, no way to contact the sender, and no follow-through when the first deadline passed. The "we will pay" family video was crafted with FBI assistance in response to a second note that made no demands. Sheriff Nanos was at a basketball game Saturday night while all of this was happening. His own deputies' union went public revealing he grounded the thermal-imaging search aircraft by reassigning its pilot over a personal grudge and stripped the Search and Rescue unit of its most experienced deputy months before Nancy vanished. Nancy is 84, her pacemaker disconnected at 2:28 AM February first, and she has been without life-sustaining medication for nine days. The investigation just went dark. And departments go dark for one of two reasons — they have nothing, or they are building toward something they are not ready to announce.#NancyGuthrie #SavannahGuthrie #TrueCrimeToday #FBI #ChrisNanos #PimaCounty #MissingPerson #TrueCrime #ForensicSearch #InvestigationJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
