Sitting on his grandad's knee, a young Bhavik Haria was introduced to devotional Hindu music. Since childhood, he's been hooked on the moving instruments and tales of gods and deities. Fast forward to his late 20s – and it was during the Covid pandemic that Bhavik realised how the landscape was changing in his community. Young people were no longer engaging with these bhajans. The instruments and sound were just not resonating. A trend began in India of bhajan jams – incorporating Western instruments to devotional music that appealed to all ages. We follow Bhavik from London to Ahmedabad, on his mission to keep bhajans alive by appealing to all ages through fusion music. And we find out why bhajan jams are helping the Hindu diaspora feel connected to their cultural and religious roots.

"It's never gonna be right. It's gonna be good enough to get started. You have enough to get started — just get started."Welcome back to The Speaker Lab Podcast! In this Alumni Spotlight episode, host Dan Irvin sits down with Chris Jackson — a speaker and consultant building his business from the foundation up, getting ready to land his first paid gig in this chapter of his career. And the message he's building on is one every listener needs to feel, not just nod along to: momentum, breaking the inertia of the start, and getting comfortable with an ugly start.Chris's favorite analogy says it all — spaceships burn most of their fuel breaking gravity, not cruising through space. He and Dan unpack how perfectionism keeps speakers grounded, how the Speaker Bureau intake (plus some smart AI brainstorming) finally gave Chris clarity on his niche — helping high-performing dentists shift from clinician to CEO — and the proposal he sat on for weeks despite knowing every single decision maker by name. He just wouldn't pick up the phone. If you've ever been the dog sitting on the nail, this one's for you.Then there's the story that gave both of them goosebumps: 19-year-old Chris bombing his first tour at Atlanta's Cyclorama, until an older gentleman shook his hand, told him to slow down, and gave him a five-dollar tip — his first paid speaking gig and the feedback that launched a lifelong study of the craft. It pairs with the harder lesson that came later: someone told Chris he sounded "too motivational," and he let it shrink him until speaking wasn't fun anymore. The takeaway? Take the feedback that serves your mission, and let the rest go.Whether you're frozen at the starting line or sanding down your voice to fit someone else's idea of you, this episode will get you off the nail and into motion!You'll learn:Why breaking gravity takes most of your fuel — and what that means for starting your speaking businessHow perfectionism disguises itself as preparation (and keeps your talk grounded)Get Your 15 Minute Speaker Business AssessmentFind Chris Jackson on InstagramCalculate Your Speaking Fee Subscribe on Apple PodcastsSubscribe on SpotifyHow the Speaker Bureau intake questions gave Chris real clarity on his clinician-to-CEO topicUsing AI as a brainstorming partner, not a do-it-all machine — and why mastering one tool beats drinking from the tech fire hoseWhat private equity did to dental service organizations, and the pain point Chris solves for dentistsThe "too motivational" feedback that almost cost Chris his voice — and what it taught himHow to tell the difference between feedback worth taking and feedback worth letting goThe Cyclorama story: a stranger's $5 tip that became a first paid gig and a turning pointWhy Chris knew every decision maker for his first proposal — and still wouldn't make the callWhy momentum is a decision, not a feelingAnd much, much more!Episode Resources:Get Your 15 Minute Speaker Business AssessmentFind Chris Jackson on InstagramCalculate Your Speaking Fee Subscribe on Apple PodcastsSubscribe on Spotify"Do the thing that you fear the most.

"You are always a student, never a master." This simple principle serves as the heartbeat for a life dedicated to authentic human depth. In a world optimized for digital efficiency and "frictionless" convenience, the true currency of a meaningful life remains the unscalable power of independent thought, presence, and intentional effort. In this episode of Gratitude Through Hard Times, Sandra Lopez explores the growing cultural movement of human connection, healing, and the unexpected ways we tune back into our personal truths. Sandra shares insights from her personal journey, including navigating a high-stakes executive career at tech giants like Intel, Adobe, and Microsoft, confronting a pivotal 360-feedback review that labeled her a "robot," and utilizing the forced pause of the COVID-19 pandemic to embark on a radical road of self-discovery through Kabbalah. Together, the conversation dives into how we show up for our teams with deep empathy, the power of using technology as a contrarian force, and how choosing a messy, non-traditional path allows leaders to trade superficial ego validation for lasting, soul-led growth. 10 Memorable Quotes: "Business is business, and you keep your personal life separate." "Until, you know, maybe two years into, uh, my management, I got my 360 feedback, and, feedback is a gift." "One of my team members said, 'I don't know Sandra. She seems to be like a robot.'" "A good leader delivers results, but how do you become a great leader? And the great leader is the understanding that we are all humans." "The greatest gift that I get isn't my bonus. It's the little emails that I get..." "I'm 53 and I would say most of my lifespan, was probably giving gratitude very superficially." "Am I doing this for my ego or am I doing this for my soul? And that's a very hard transition actually." "The soul responds to the soul. So when, if you're starting your own business and you really focus on what's the soul of the company... Humans are gonna respond to that." "The moments, the hardest moments of my life was when I saw exponential growth." "Be delusionally... Be delusional about finding your soul. How's that? DeLulo" 10 Key Takeaways: The Character Test of Feedback: Why embracing uncomfortable 360-degree reviews and extracting truth from critical peer assessments is infinitely better than building an inner circle of enablers. Good vs. Great Leadership: Understanding the stark reality of corporate metrics, where delivering OKRs only makes you a good leader, while a great leader prioritizes the unscalable human-to-human capacity. The Hidden Debt of the Ego: Recognizing the profound impact of modern business systems and digital platforms like LinkedIn, which function as machines engineered to feed external images rather than internal truths. The Evolving Rules of Tech: Dealing with the modern reality of AI engagement, choosing to use technology strictly as a contrarian tool to challenge strategic blind spots rather than a superficial echo chamber to validate existing bias. The Value of Trailing Humans: Processing the bittersweet realization that while tools can assist operations, chatbots lack a conscience, meaning true personal breakthroughs require stepping away from screens to converse with a real human being. Remembering COVID's Gift: Reclaiming the narrative around global and personal hardships by extending genuine gratitude to a crisis that forced a necessary internal pause and deep ancestral self-discovery. Systemic vs. Soul Presence: Learning that showing up authentically requires skipping rigid, traditional expectations of how leaders "should" live or format their personal partnerships and spaces. Sitting in the SAVERS Routine: A look at how intentional daily habits form resilience, utilizing quiet mornings dedicated to silence, gratitude, visualization, exercise, contrarian reading, and scribing. Certainty and Intuition: How dialing into your core intuition prompts people to pause, providing an unshakeable confidence that overrides logical fears when making massive career pivots. The Micro-Intervention of the Zag: How breaking past a commoditized, fast-paced, and highly automated corporate landscape to bring the purposeful messiness of the soul back into business is the ultimate competitive advantage. About our Guest: Growing up with a relentless work ethic shaped the foundation of Sandra Lopez's purpose-driven approach to leadership. Guided by the personal philosophy that "you are always a student, never a master," she learned early that true wisdom requires a lifelong commitment to unlearning, learning, and continuously putting one foot in front of the other, no matter how grueling the path becomes. Raised to appreciate the delicate balance between high-stakes profit metrics and a deep responsibility to give back, those early values instilled in her a lasting dedication to community advocacy, representation, and leading with radical transparency. After entering the technology workforce, Sandra discovered a deep passion for driving corporate transformation at an elite level, spending over twenty years holding executive and leadership roles at iconic global brands including Intel, Adobe, and serving as the former CMO of Microsoft Advertising. What began as a traditional path focused on hard business outcomes evolved into a fulfilling calling as the CEO of Ambi Ventures, where she partners with ambitious businesses to provide elite fractional CMO services, advisory expertise, and investments. Dedicated to being an active advocate for Latina executives across America and serving as a co-chair for the World Economic Forum's AR/VR Model Commission, Sandra believes that integrating empathy and humanity into corporate spaces is at the heart of meaningful growth. Outside of her advisory career, she stays actively involved in exploring diverse spiritual and mindfulness practices like Kabbalah, prioritizing intentional morning routines, and inspiring the next generation of leaders to look past the ego to connect deeply with their soul's true purpose.

In this podcast, I sat down with Ronan Leonard, founder of Intelligent Resourcing, to break down how he helps sales teams eliminate the 40% of their day spent manually researching companies and instead deliver real buying signals directly into the CRM so reps can take action. We talked about how fast AI is reshaping business models—Ronan compared it to waking up and finding the snow gone overnight—and why he refuses to build SaaS right now. He explained “dark data” hidden in sales call transcripts, how he enriches CRMs into “evergreen” systems, and how those insights feed content and GEO/answer optimization. We also covered tool-stack volatility, internal tooling vs productizing, structuring teams around learning speed, value-based pricing and price elasticity, and we had an honest disagreement on co-risking and revenue-share deals.01:36 AI Overwhelm and Pace03:19 Snowstorm Business Models04:13 No SaaS Moat Strategy05:09 Signals Into the CRM06:45 Dark Data and Transcripts08:55 Scaling Clients and LTV15:49 Team Structure and Learning19:41 Agents vs SOP Iteration24:39 Standardize Custom Work24:59 Value Based Pricing Framework27:48 Cost Savings Case Study30:16 Pricing as Perception31:49 Why Upside Deals Fail35:36 Confidence and Client Execution36:34 Staying Ahead of AI Curve39:37 Creativity and Feedback LoopsConnect with Ronan: • https://www.linkedin.com/in/ronan-leonard/https://intelligentresourcing.co/Connect with Raul: • Work with Raul: https://dogoodwork.io• Free Growth Resources: https://dogoodwork.io/resources• Connect with Raul on LinkedIn (DMs open): https://www.linkedin.com/in/dogoodwork/

Biomechanist Katy Bowman and biologist Dr. Jeannette Loram unpack emerging research on heart disease, inflammation, cholesterol, and arterial plaque. Inspired by a recent Scientific American article, they explore what plaque is, how and why it forms, and how blood flow patterns influence where plaque accumulates in the arteries. They discuss recent evidence that places inflammation as a foundational piece of heart disease and how the ‘spiky' shape and structure of cholesterol in plaque has a direct role in the inflammatory pathways and immune system overreactions that occur in heart disease. Katy and Jeannette offer practical insights into how regular activity, varied positioning, and lifestyle choices can help support healthy arteries. They also discuss the importance of scientific curiosity, prevention over treatment, and why understanding the body's processes can inspire better self-care.Enhanced Show Notes and Full Transcript0:00 — Introduction: the Scientific American article on heart inflammation3:43 — Dynamic Collective9.15 — Main takeaway: inflammation, cholesterol and heart disease9:47 — What is plaque? 15:33 — Why plaque forms in specific locations within arteries: wounding and blood flow 23:12 — How cholesterol enters arterial walls 40:00 — Why understanding the body can deepen appreciation and motivation for self-care44:16 — Listener question: sciatic pain (sponsored by Venn Design).Books, Links and Resources:Science and Poetry by Mary Midgely Connect, Move & Learn:Join Our Newsletter: Movement Colored GlassesFollow Katy on SubstackTry Katy's Virtual Studio Free for 7 days!Made Possible By Our Wonderful Sponsors:Venn Design: Beautifully upholstered ball-shaped Air Chairs and floor cushions that encourage dynamic sittingMy Happy Feet: Toe-spacing socks that gently realign toes for comfortable shoe recovery—take 20% off with code MYDNAEarth Runners: makers of minimalist earthing sandals designed for natural foot movement and connection to the ground— use code DNA10 for 10% off.Ikaria Design: The Soul Seat® offers height-adjustable, multi-position sitting—get 10% off new chairs and desks with code DNA10Movemate: Active standing boards with smoothly articulating wooden slats.

As you probably heard, Pope Leo XIV released his first encyclical letter in May. Titled Magnifica humanitas, the document is a 42,000-word reflection on what it means to be human in our technology-obsessed age of generative artificial intelligence. The Pope officially released the document during a press conference at the Vatican, which the Holy Father himself attended — an unusual move for pontiffs. Sitting at one end of the dais was Christopher Olah, one of the founders of Anthropic, one of the largest AI companies in the world. His presence made a lot of headlines, too. Right next to Olah was a theologian named Anna Rowlands, and she's our guest today. Professor Rowlands is the St Hilda Professor of Catholic Social Thought & Practice at Durham University in the United Kingdom. At the press conference, she delivered a stirring 10-minute address on how the encyclical offers the church and the world valuable insights into protecting human dignity and the common good in these uncertain times. Professor Rowlands is no stranger to the Vatican. In fact, she was involved in one of these press conference panels for the release of Pope Francis' encyclical Fratelli tutti, and she has been involved in leading the Synod on Synodality process since 2023. Host Mike Jordan Laskey asked her about the press conference itself and how she decided on what she wanted to say in her address. They also talked about how the encyclical has been received and the material in the letter she finds most compelling. Mike also asked her to respond to one of his favorite critiques of the encyclical and of what generative AI is doing to our brains and souls. It was a wide-ranging conversation and we're sure you'll see why we think Professor Rowlands is one of the deepest and most brilliant thinkers you could ever hope to meet.

Humility is one of the most quietly powerful practices for positive psychology and mental health. It's also one of the most misunderstood. Here's the heart of it: humility is not a weakness. It's not about making yourself small or performing modesty for social approval. It's an accurate, grounded sense of self, what Dr. Daryl Van Tongeren calls "right-sizing." You own your strengths and weaknesses. And you hold your worth steady through all of it. We explored four types of humility this month: relational, intellectual, cultural, and existential. And we worked through three core ingredients to build humility up: Know Yourself. This is where self-compassion becomes essential. Self-knowledge without self-compassion tends to slide into rumination — that harsh, looping self-focus that keeps us stuck. Dr. Kristin Neff's research reminds us that genuine self-reflection requires feeling safe enough to look clearly, without bracing for an attack. When self-compassion is in place, honest self-awareness becomes possible. So does recognizing things like the better-than-average effect, which is our tendency to unconsciously and inaccurately position ourselves as a little more right, and others a little more wrong. Humility gently corrects that drift. Check Yourself. This is ego territory. When we feel threatened, the ego rises up. We deflect, deny, shut down, intellectualize. It's a very human, very normal response. But it doesn't have to run the show. One of the most practical tools from this series: when you feel defensive, pause. Breathe. Then ask yourself, "What would I think if I weren't feeling defensive?" That question can create some space for the ego to stand down and lets emotional regulation take over instead of reactivity. Go Beyond Yourself. This is where the magic of humility really shows itself as we build a genuine curiosity about other people and life's bigger questions. The self-forgetfulness that C.S. Lewis describes as essential to humility puts it all into action. When we're not so consumed by ourselves, the world opens up. And that's where connection, meaning, and joy actually show up in more noticeable, lasting ways. If you've worked through this series and feel less certain than when you started, that's not a problem. That's the practice of humility in action. Sitting with uncertainty, tolerating what's unresolved, resisting the cultural pressure toward easy answers and performed confidence is peak courage. It's often uncomfortable and it's always worth it. If this work has stirred something that feels bigger than you want to carry alone, please reach out to a therapist, a trusted friend, or a support community. Seeking support isn't weakness. It's an act of humility and one of the most courageous things you can do. And for Joy Lab Program members: your Episode Experiment includes a guided meditation and journal prompts to help you harvest and integrate the work you've done this month. We close with Rilke (we know, we close with Rilke a lot!): "Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves." Keep tending to your humility.

Wendell Berry's book Standing by Words Common Questions: Q: How do I stop being so hard on myself without losing self-awareness? A: Self-compassion and self-knowledge are partners. As researcher Dr. Kristin Neff puts it, "You can look clearly at yourself when you're not afraid of what you'll find." Self-compassion creates the psychological safety for honest, accurate self-appraisal, replacing harsh rumination with compassionate self-reflection. Humility is the result: an accurate, grounded sense of self that's neither inflated nor deflated. Q: Why does being humble feel so uncomfortable and countercultural? A: Because in many ways, it is. We live in a world that often rewards certainty, self-promotion, and being right, even when those things don't actually nourish us. Building humility means opening up to uncertainty and the unknown, which takes real courage. The good news is that discomfort is also building something called uncertainty-tolerance, a form of emotional resilience that reaches across every area of your life in really nourishing ways. Key moments: [00:00] Welcome & orientation — Aimee frames the three-part humility arc (Know Yourself → Check Yourself → Go Beyond Yourself) [01:30] Henry's realization: humility, like every Joy Lab Element, is ultimately about learning to love well and connect more deeply [03:00] Why humility is the antidote to loneliness — the difference between being surrounded by people and being genuinely seen; how isolation is really a form of alienation [05:00] What it feels like to be with a truly humble person — and why humility makes us safer, more trustworthy, and more magnetic in relationships and communities [06:30] The traffic circle of defensiveness — Aimee on why the risk of being burned by someone is still better than a lifetime of self-protective looping [07:30] Epistemic humility explained — the idea that your understanding of reality is always partial, always filtered, always a vantage point. And so is everyone else's. (Plus: a pronunciation debate.) [08:45] Why disagreement doesn't mean someone is wrong, and how truth is larger than any one person's grasp of it [10:30] William James on the deepest craving in human nature: to be appreciated and seen [11:00] Two practical strategies for going beyond yourself: (1) deep, active listening as a humility practice — not formulating your response, but truly receiving another person; (2) seeing the innocence of others [12:30] Thich Nhat Hanh: "Listen until they empty their hearts." Henry shares this as a guide for showing up and listening [13:30] Seeing the innocence in others — Henry's 30+ years of clinical wisdom distilled: most people are doing the best they can with what they have, right now. How holding that awareness softens judgment without eliminating boundaries [15:30] Aimee reflects: "That's the wisdom I'd want somebody to hold when they see me messing up."

"Who says you can't win on a losing hand?" Kane Brown The Pivot takes Nashville...Country superstar Kane Brown joins The Pivot for one of his most candid conversations yet, opening up about the unlikely path that took him from posting videos on social media during work breaks to becoming one of the biggest names in country music. Sitting down with Ryan, Channing and Fred, Kane reflects on the challenges of breaking into a genre where he often feels overlooked, he shares how his determination, faith and family values help him navigate obstacles, racial encounters and industry skepticism along the way. Despite chart-topping success, sold-out arenas and countless accolades, Kane explains why he's never fully satisfied and continues chasing the next level. From battling self-doubt, loneliness that comes with success and mental health struggles of navigating fame, the conversation hits all levels. The conversation dives deep into his life off the stage—from recording music with his wife and building a family together to embracing the role of fatherhood and finding purpose beyond fame. Kane also opens up about the frustrating pattern of being passed over during awards season, how criticism became fuel, and why gratitude and ambition can coexist. A lifelong Georgia football fan, Kane shares stories about his friendships with some of the biggest names in sports, including Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce, offering a glimpse into the relationships he's built far beyond the music world. From viral videos and self-belief to family, legacy and the pursuit of greatness, Kane Brown delivers an honest look at success, sacrifice and the question he's still trying to answer: When you've reached the top, what does the finish line really look like? This is a conversation about resilience, identity, purpose and the relentless drive to keep pushing forward—even when the world says you've already made it. Learn more about your ad choices.

It's sagging because the collagen holding it together is being destroyed from the inside out, and most of the money people spend on creams and lasers never touches the real cause. In this episode I break down the compound researchers keep returning to for collagen, elasticity, and skin aging. It isn't a prescription or an exotic ingredient. It's high quality olive oil, and specifically three polyphenols inside it: hydroxytyrosol, oleuropein, and oleocanthal. One behaves like an anti-inflammatory drug. One protects your collagen. One is rated a stronger antioxidant than vitamin C. I walk through the human research, the realistic timeline for results, and exactly how to tell whether the bottle in your kitchen has the polyphenols or none at all. Key takeaways: Skin sagging is driven by three internal enemies: oxidative stress, glycation from sugar, and fibroblasts slowing down with age In lab studies, olive polyphenols made human collagen factory cells multiply and migrate faster In a French cohort of nearly 3,000 adults, the highest olive oil eaters had measurably less facial aging, even after controlling for sun, smoking, and weight Oleocanthal works on the same inflammatory pathway as ibuprofen Realistic timeline: four to six weeks for hydration, eight to twelve weeks for texture and elasticity Most grocery store olive oil has lost its polyphenols to heat, light, time, and cheap processing The protocol: two tablespoons of fresh, single origin, dark glass bottle olive oil daily Find All The Ben Azadi Show Sponsorship Deals https://www.ketokamp.com/sponsorship-deals Learn more about your ad choices.

Ido Portal is one of the most original movement thinkers alive. He has spent decades studying the body across martial arts, acrobatics, yoga, dance, and ancient movement traditions, not to master any one of them, but to ask a deeper question: what does it actually mean to move well, and what does the body reveal when you finally start listening to it? In this conversation, we go long, covering ground that most movement conversations never reach.What We Dive Into:1.Most of us treat the body like a car to maintain, something we service occasionally for performance or appearance. Ido's entire framework starts from the opposite premise: the body is not a tool you use, it is what you are. That shift alone changes what practice means.2.What we attend to grows. What we neglect crumbles. Ido applies this principle everywhere, from babies in hospitals to athletes on the field. Bringing undivided attention to even one part of your body for one minute, with no music, no phone, no audience, begins a transformation most people have never experienced.3.The most important moment in Ido's own journey was admitting he didn't have what he was looking for. Not as defeat, but as a beginning. The person who thinks they already have a connection to their body is the one most closed off to finding it. Not knowing, and staying there, is the actual practice.Know Thyself, but not by yourself. A guided space to return home to yourself.https://www.knowthyselfcollective.com✨THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSORS:https://drinkLMNT.com/KnowThyselfTry LMNT & get a free sample pack https://www.functionhealth.com/KNOWTHYSELFCode KNOWTHYSELF25 for $25 off membership___________00:00 Intro01:44 How Most People Relate to Their Body09:22 Movement vs. Practice vs. Exercise10:27 Life Is for Practicing, Not Just Living20:13 Attention as the Primary Tool23:49 Stop Practicing for Exposure28:12 How to Begin: Removing Leakage35:22 Diagnostic Play and the Art of Seeing37:30 The Ancient Schools of Practice43:33 Tensegrity and the Body's Inner Models49:28 Proprioception, Sensing, and the Pain of Feeling1:02:05 Tension, Connection, and What the Body Actually Needs1:08:00 Ido's Journey: Searching for a Real Teacher1:13:15 Why Real Teachers Refuse to Give Clean Answers1:23:49 What Am I Before Who Am I1:29:23 The Chariot Analogy: Body, Emotion, and Intellect1:36:42 Feeding the Emotional Body1:40:14 The Weber-Fechner Law and Reducing Inner Noise1:52:29 How the Body Reveals What We Hide2:02:15 Pursuing Weakness Over Strength2:05:46 Discipline, Motivation, and Real Will2:16:02 The Practice of Sitting and Choiceless Awareness2:37:22 What Inner Work Without the Body Misses2:41:31 The Heart as the Missing Path2:45:55 Community Questions: Practical Tools for the Body2:57:18 On Animals, Archetypes, and the Spirit of Movement3:03:02 Closing Message: Become a Practice___________✨MORE FROM IDO↳Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/portal.ido/↳https://www.idoportal.com
John is joined by Myles Smith and producer Peter Fenn to discuss how they wrote, recorded and produced the album ‘My Mess, My Heart, My Life'. Myles Smith is a singer-songwriter from Luton in the UK. Performing at local open mic nights since his teens, he built a loyal fan base and landed a record deal with Sony thanks to cover versions he posted on Tiktok. In 2024, Myles' single ‘Stargazing' was a viral hit and has since been streamed over one billion times globally. The momentum of ‘Stargazing' and other early singles helped establish Myles as one of the UK's most promising new artists. He won 2024's BBC Introducing Artist of the Year and the BRIT Rising Star Award and is only the second artist, after Lewis Capaldi, to sell out London's 02 Arena before releasing a debut album. ‘My Mess, My Heart, My Life', his debut, produced by longtime collaborator Peter Fenn, arrived in June 2026. Sitting down at Salvation Studios in London, the trio discuss “getting out of the way of the song” as their approach to production on the album and how billion-streaming hit ‘Stargazing' evolved into something really special in the studio. They explain why they prefer to be “in the box” when it comes to mixing, and reveal how they translated Myles' original acoustic tracks into anthemic live performances, including “Myles Sauce” vocal techniques! Plus they answer questions from our Patrons!

Host: Mindy McCulley, MS Family and Consumer Sciences Extension Specialist for Instructional Support, University of Kentucky Guest: Monica Mundy, PhD Assistant Extension Professor for Family and Community Health Season 8 | Episode 44 In this Talking FACS episode we explore the simple joy of porch sitting and how it supports mental health, social well‑being, and community connection with Dr. Monica Mundy, Extension Specialist for Family and Community Health. Topics include research on social relationships and longevity, the Surgeon General's warnings about loneliness, nostalgic and modern porch traditions (including porch geese), and everyday examples of how porches bridge homes and neighborhoods. Key takeaways: spending 10–15 minutes on your porch, saying hello or waving to neighbors, and being present can reduce stress, build trust, and strengthen community ties.

A hit song can start with a flooded kitchen, a late co-writer, and a line tossed off as a joke. Sitting down with Phil Vassar, we follow the real road behind the radio: moving from Virginia to Nashville, getting told a piano player does not belong, and pushing through anyway until the first cuts finally land and the town starts listening. If you love songwriter stories, country music history, and the craft behind a chorus that sticks, this one goes deep and stays honest. We talk about building a career the hard way by owning a bar just to have a stage, playing every weekend, testing new songs on real people, and watching labels and artists start to show up. Phil shares what it felt like to jump from that club world to massive tours with Tim McGraw and Faith Hill, then to life on the road with Kenny Rogers, plus the pranks, personalities, and weird little moments you only get when you live inside the music business. Then the conversation turns to longevity: why timeless songs outlive trends, why some of his favorite tracks were never singles, and how “Just Another Day in Paradise” went from chaos to a No. 1. Phil also opens up about his 2023 heart attack, the shock of “bad genes,” and how a second chance changes your perspective on life and songwriting. If you enjoy interviews about the songwriting process, Nashville, and classic country storytelling, subscribe, share this with a music-loving friend, and leave us a review so more listeners can find the show.

If the birthday message attributed to Donald Trump was truly forged, the absence of a publicly announced investigation into who created it is difficult to explain. Fabricating evidence to connect a sitting president to Jeffrey Epstein would be an extraordinary act with potentially serious criminal, political, and national-security implications. Investigators could examine the album's chain of custody, test the paper and ink, compare the signature with authenticated examples, and interview the people who assembled and preserved the birthday book. Instead, Trump and the White House have focused primarily on denouncing the document and suing The Wall Street Journal. That approach attacks the publisher without identifying the alleged forger or establishing how a fraudulent page supposedly entered a private album assembled in 2003.This does not prove that Trump wrote the message, but it creates a legitimate credibility problem for his denial. A defamation lawsuit can impose costs, create delays, intimidate further reporting, and keep the dispute framed around media conduct rather than the document's authenticity. A real forgery investigation would be harder to control and could either vindicate Trump or produce evidence contradicting him. Given Trump's documented social relationship with Epstein during the relevant period, the existence of a birthday contribution is not inherently implausible. Until the administration demands an independent forensic examination and explains who supposedly forged the message, the suspicion will remain that the lawsuit was intended less to uncover the truth than to slow the release of damaging information and create enough doubt to protect Trump politically.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

In this episode, I reflect on Cormac McCarthy's The Sunset Limited, which I recently read in its dramatic form after watching the excellent and very faithful HBO adaptation with Samuel L. Jackson and Tommy Lee Jones. Sitting more deeply with Professor White's despair brought me back to Eugene Thacker's Infinite Resignation and the idea that the only philosophy worth pursuing is one that poses questions without answers. This becomes a meditation on pessimism, faith, despair, and the strange sacredness of staying in the room when no clean answer arrives.

Questions? Comments? We love feedback! Email us at info@baishavaad.org Rav Yosef GreenwaldQuestion: Reuven pays for two seats in his shul. He uses one for himself and the other one is meant for his son. However, his son prefers to daven elsewhere and rarely sits in his seat. Shimon notices the empty seat and begins to sit there every week. Eventually, Reuven tells him that since he is using the seat, he should pay for it. Is Reuven correct? Answer: This would seem like a case of zeh neheneh v'zeh lo chaseir. Since Shimon is not causing Reuven a loss, it would seem that he should be patur.The Gemara says that two conditions must be met in order to make someone pay for a hana'ah that he receives. 1. The owner must be having a loss in the sense that he could rent out the property being used if the other person wasn't there. In this case, since Reuven cannot sell the other seat, he would not be able to charge for its use. 2. The person having hana'ah can only be obligated to pay for something that would otherwise pay for. In this case, that would mean that Shimon would have to be the type of person who would pay for another seat if this one wasn't available. Whereas, if he is the type of person who wouldn't pay for a seat and would just stand in the back if there was no free seat available, the Gemara implies that he could not be obligated to pay. Going forward, if Reuven continues to pay for the seat and he wants to use it to put down his talis bag or his coat and hat, he may prevent Shimon from sitting there in the future because he needs the seat for himself. Still, because Shimon is not considered a nehene because he wouldn't pay for a seat in any case, he may not be able to charge him for sitting there.However, practically speaking, although the Gemara implies to say that one can only charge the person having hana'ah if he is the type of person who would pay for such a benefit, the Poskim rule like the opinion of the Rif that this condition does not need to be met and one can charge someone for using something that is theirs and causing them a loss even if the person would not have been willing to pay for such hana'ah.
We love that this ministry puts us on a path and trajectory with other fellow strugglers in life that we call forever family. Sitting down and having heart-to-heart conversations is such a gift and, in this episode, that gift was so appreciated. In this episode, Rodney Holmstrom, Global Field Director of Celebrate Recovery, sits down with Noah Whitaker, celebrate recovery representative of North Dakota, to have a conversation around recovery and specifically step 10 and how we can serve in a healthy posture and not out of codependency. They also discuss why and how celebrate recovery is so vital for the entire family and the impact on Noah's life growing up in recovery.

Standing or Sitting During Hazarah? by Rabbi Avi Harari
There is a gap nobody talks about.Not the gap between who you were and who you are becoming. Not the gap between where you are and where you want to be. I mean the one that opens up inside you when something ends. When someone leaves. When you leave. When a version of life you had quietly counted on quietly disappears.Grief is not always loud. Sometimes it doesn't announce itself at all. It just sits there -in the pause between one thought and the next. In the moment you reach for your phone to tell someone something, and then remember. On a Sunday afternoon, that used to mean something and now just means quiet.We were never really taught how to grieve. We were taught how to recover. How to bounce back. How to find the silver lining, the lesson, the growth. And all of that can be true - and also, sometimes something just needs to be mourned. Without the lesson. Without the reframe. Without being made useful.I wrote Mind the Gap in one of those spaces. The in-between place. Not in the acute pain of something ending but in the strange, quiet aftermath of the unknown space. When the world had moved on, and I hadn't quite. When I was expected to be fine, and something in me was still sitting with the loss, wondering why no one had named it yet.Grief is not just for death. It is for the relationship that ended. The friendship that quietly dissolved. The version of yourself you had to let go of to become who you are now. The career that didn't work out. The city you left. The future you had mapped in your head that never came to be.All of that deserves to be grieved. You are allowed to sit in the gap. You are allowed to not be over it yet. You are allowed to feel the weight of what was, even as you choose what comes next.The gap is not a sign you are stuck. It is a sign you love something. That it matters or mattered. That you were present enough to feel the loss of it.And in my experience, the only way out of the gap is through it. Not around it. Not above it. Not by filling it with noise and motion until it goes quiet. Through it. Sitting with it. Writing it down. Saying out loud - this hurt, and it mattered, and I am still here.That is what this poem is. A companion for the gap. Something to sit with you in the in-between.If this landed somewhere real in you, I want you to know you are not alone in the gap.And if you are feeling stuck in a way that goes beyond grief, if you have been waiting to find your way back to yourself for a while now, I have been building something for exactly that.30 Days to Unstuck is a daily audio series. Five minutes each morning. Thirty days. This is for the person who knows they are meant for more and just needs to find their way back.It is not a productivity programme. It is not about doing more. It is about remembering who you are underneath everything that got layered on top.The full series drops soon. Join the waitlist at 30 Days To Unstuck.

In this episode, I sat down with Clare Assante to talk about supporting teens through self-harm, anxiety, and the heavy pressures they face. We explore how parental fear can get in the way, and how understanding thought, feelings, and the body's signals creates real space for healing.Clare shares practical insights from her work with teens and parents, while we dive into the “bullshit detector,” sitting with uncomfortable feelings, and why allowing emotions to flow (instead of rushing to fix them) is so powerful.Key Topics– Clare's work with teens & parents– Understanding self-harm– Sitting with feelings & the "bullshit detector"– Roller-coaster analogy– Being grateful for triggers– Parenting: allowing kids to feel their feelings– Parental fears of judgmentWhat Resonated MostUncomfortable feelings are often just a signal we're believing scary thoughts — not that something is wrong.The same sensation can feel like fear or excitement depending on the story we attach.Our urge to “fix” our kids' discomfort is often more about our own anxiety than their needs.Triggers are gifts that show us where we're not yet free.Guest BioClare Assante coaches teens and their parents through self-harm, anxiety, and life pressures.

There are conversations that deepen the way we relate to our horses, and this was absolutely one of them.As someone who lives alongside horses every day, I'm always curious about the space where intuition, experience, and science meet. Sitting down with neuroscientist and horse trainer Janet Jones felt like stepping further into that understanding.Janet is the author of the bestselling Horse Brain, Human Brain, a book that genuinely transformed the way I think about horse behavior, trust, fear, training, and the horse-human connection. In this conversation, we explore insights from her upcoming book, A Horse's World, available now for pre-order before its June 23 release.We talk about what's actually happening when horses snort or lick and chew, how horses experience the world through smell, why lighting and vision matter more than most riders realize, and the neuroscience behind helping horses feel safe in new environments.One part that especially stayed with me was Janet describing a new horse as feeling like “a tourist in a foreign country.” As I've been integrating a new mare into my own herd, that perspective felt incredibly grounding and compassionate.We also explore: • Rewarding relaxation instead of only correcting behavior • Predator brains vs. prey brains • Wild horses vs. horses living in the wild • Anthropomorphism in horsemanship • Building trust through consistency, calmness, and understandingThis conversation felt less like learning “about” horses and more like remembering to see the world a little more through their eyes.Pre-order: A Horse's WorldFollow Janet:WebsiteFacebookInstagramLearn more about Horse Brain, Human BrainFollow Little Brown and CompanySend us Fan Mail Support the show✨ Join the Spiritual Horse Seeker Summit

Welcome to Poolside Confessions, my summer series where I sit by the water, slow down, and share what I'm actually living and thinking about. Today's confession is something I've been sitting with for a while. I started thinking about the seasons of my life when anxiety showed up the loudest. Some of those seasons made sense from the outside – things were hard. But others were confusing. Things were going well. Success was real. And the anxiety was still there. Sitting with all of it, something became clear: anxiety is never really about what's happening outside of you. So what is it about? In this episode, I share what I've come to understand – and the practice that has quietly shifted how I live. Here's what we cover: Why anxiety is never about your circumstances What always accompanied my most anxious seasons – and why I didn't see it at the time How broken promises to yourself create low-grade anxiety you can't quite name What happens when you stop trusting your intuition Why the scary stories you tell yourself about the future are working against you The practices that have built real self-trust in my life Did you enjoy this episode?

Weariness has a way of brewing just below the surface — quiet enough to ignore for a while, but persistent enough that it eventually makes itself known. In this tender and soul-nourishing episode, Keri Eichberger gives voice to a longing most of us carry but rarely stop to name: the deep, aching desire to be truly refreshed. Not just rested, but renewed from the inside out. Washed clean of burden and brokenness. Filled with something that sticks and stays, long after the moment has passed. The world's answer to weariness is more productivity, more hustle, more effort. But Jeremiah 31:25 offers something entirely different: I will refresh the weary and satisfy the faint. Not a suggestion to try harder, but a promise spoken by the God whose hands are always held open, always reaching, always offering a bottomless pour of living water to anyone who will come and receive it. Keri invites us to stop right where we are and drink deeply from that fountain — to sit still in His presence, surrender to His peace, and let Him revive every weary corner of our souls. His flow never stops. It is abundant, it satisfies the deepest void, and it is available to you today, and every day after. Today's Bible Verse "I will refresh the weary and satisfy the faint." — Jeremiah 31:25, NIV Ponder Today Weariness is not always obvious — but it is always worth bringing to God. Whether you are desperate for renewal right now or simply carrying a low-grade exhaustion you have grown used to, God's refreshment is available and waiting for you. The world demands more; God offers more. The relentless pressure to give more, do more, and work faster drains the soul. Jesus is the only source of refreshment that truly satisfies, because He alone reaches the places where the weariness actually lives. God's refreshment is not a one-time gift — it is a continuous flow. His presence is always available, His peace never runs out, and His living water never dries up. You can return to Him hour by hour, day by day, and find Him ready every time. Stillness is not laziness — it is how we receive. Sitting still in His presence, surrendering to His power, and simply receiving His love are not passive acts. They are the very posture through which God fills what the world has emptied. Refreshment in God's presence produces perspective, freedom, and hope. When you drink deeply from His living water, you gain eyes to see the goodness already around you and the bright expectation of more good to come. A Prayer for You Today Jesus, my Friend, You are living water — my continual source of refreshment, the only constant source that never dies or dries out. There are days when I am overcome by the weight of the world, and I confess I don't always turn directly to You to restore my spirit. But I know I should. You alone can fill my deepest desires, and You long to do that for me. Fill me right now with Your refreshment, the satisfaction of Your living water, Your love, comfort, and peace. Build my confidence in the truth that Your blessings are always available in overflowing abundance. I praise You for the refreshment I find in You, unfailingly. Thank You, Lord. In Your refreshing name, Amen. Don't Miss an Episode If today's prayer gave your soul a much-needed drink of living water, we'd love to stay connected.

Psychologists Off The Clock: A Psychology Podcast About The Science And Practice Of Living Well
We've been told forever that women are the only natural caregivers, but neuroscience shows that's just not true; men actually go through huge biological shifts when they become dads, too.Sitting down with Emily for this episode is clinical psychologist Darby Saxbe, who chats to us about her book Dad Brain: The New Science of Fatherhood and How It Shapes Men's Lives, which challenges neo-traditional assumptions about parenting roles. Their conversation highlights the biological reality of fatherhood, exploring how men experience hormonal shifts, brain changes, and even paternal postpartum depression. Darby also uncovers how hands-on parenting trends are shifting across generations, the connection between relationship conflict and a dad's mental health, and how policy changes like paid paternity leave can transform modern family dynamics.Listen and Learn:How the modern science of fatherhood rewrites traditional gender roles, why the "Dad Brain" is biologically wired for caregiving, and how millennial and Gen Z fathers are redefining the rewards and divides of modern parentingThe concept of "facultative adaptation" and how it shapes the natural variability of fatherhood How a father's brain and body prepare for parenthood during pregnancyHow a couple's relationship conflict during pregnancy can directly impact the labor and delivery experience Why the prenatal period is a critical window for couples to proactively strengthen their communication, navigate relationship shifts, and better manage the stress and emotional toll of childbirth and early parenthood The ways postpartum depression manifests in new dads How a father's hormone levels naturally drop after birth and why high testosterone can unexpectedly strain romantic relationships and parenting The unique benefits of the father-child relationship Why we need to view men's mental health through a family lens How progressive policy shifts are working to empower and destigmatize active fatherhood Resources: Dad Brain: The New Science of Fatherhood and How It Shapes Men's Lives https://bookshop.org/a/30734/9781250387523 Darby's Website: https://www.darbysaxbe.comDarby's Substack: https://darbysaxbe.substack.comConnect with Darby on Social Media: https://www.linkedin.com/in/darbysaxbehttps://www.instagram.com/darbysaxbephd/Behind Every Dad Bod is a Healthy Dad Brain https://www.nytimes.com/2026/06/06/opinion/dad-brain-health-fatherhood.htmlAbout Darby SaxbeDarby Saxbe, PhD, is a clinical psychologist and tenured full professor of psychology at the University of Southern California.She has published over eighty scientific articles in peer-reviewed journals and secured major research grants from the National Institutes of Health and National Science Foundation.
