Vancouver soul and blues heavyweight Mike Van Eyes returns with his second single, “Ain't That Loving You, Baby”, landing January 14, 2026. Smooth, swinging and soaked in classic R&B, the track shows another side of his signature sound, less sprint, more slow-burning glide, with a groove that leans into feel, finesse and pure musical chemistry. It's already timeless, the kind of song that feels pulled from a golden era but played with modern fire. Long considered one of the city's most electric piano forces, Van Eyes has spent decades deep in the roots of rock 'n' roll and R&B, building a legacy through his work with Vancouver institutions The Epics and The Trespassers, as well as touring with the Herald Nix Band, where he even shared stages with The Clash and sat in with Howlin' Wolf's band. Along the way, he's lent his talents to artists like Colin James, The Yodells, GI Blues, Copyright, The Undertakin' Daddies and Peewee Clayton, a résumé that reads like a history book of West Coast roots music. “Ain't That Loving You, Baby” was recorded at the legendary Mushroom Studios (now Afterlife) with Juno Award-winning producer and engineer Erik P.H. Neilsen, capturing that unmistakable vintage warmth with a sharp, modern mix. The result is a track that swings effortlessly, anchored by Van Eyes' expressive piano work while letting the rhythm section breathe and stretch naturally around it.

Hi Bakers, Should you make your own seeded crackers, or is it a waste of time? I get so mad eating expensive and tasteless gluten-free crackers, so I decided to try making them myself…but was it worth it??I would 100% make these again; my only complaint is that I wanted them to be crisper. I loved the simple way they came together and the healthful ingredients in them. The pumpkin and pumpkin spice with seeds and dried cranberries were festive and delicious. These crackers are a beautiful gluten-free addition to any winter table. Thinking of trying them? Here are my thoughts to help you decide. PS: After writing this, I'm heading downstairs to make another batch right now! Enjoy! CarolynPros:prettytaste goodeasy to makefree of gluten, dairy, egg, grainsfull of fiber and nutritiousCons:long bake time (more like drying)not as crisp as I hopedGluten-Free Pumpkin Cranberry Holiday Seed CrackersModified from Tasty, Thrifty, Timely's Recipe for Seeded CrackersMakes two 10” x 15” sheets of crackers (to be broken apart)Dry Ingredients1/4 cup blanched almond flour1/2 cup golden flax seeds, ground1/4 cup black chia seeds1/3 cup raw shelled pumpkin seeds1/3 cup finely chopped dried cranberries1/4 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice1/8 teaspoon saltWet Ingredients3/4 cup water1/4 cup pumpkin puree1 1/2 tablespoons maple syrupPreheat the oven to 275F. In a large bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients and set aside. Mix wet ingredients in a small bowl. Pour wet ingredients over the dry and mix thoroughly, making sure there are no dry spots. You may need to scrape the bowl with a spatula to get everything combined. Smooth the surface of the dough and let it hydrate for 15 minutes. Divide the dough in half and spread it onto a sheet of parchment paper. Make the dough into a flat rectangle as thin as possible. I like to cover the dough with another sheet of parchment** and roll it out. Remove the top sheet of parchment and smooth the top of the dough if needed. Sprinkle with salt if desired. Bake for about 2o minutes and then rotate the pans in the oven. Continue cooking for another 20 minutes or until the crackers are browned at the edges and dry to the touch. Cool in the oven to dry them out even more. Break cooled crackers into pieces. Store in an airtight container for up to a week. Want to try the dip I made too? Easy Hot Honey Dip: Take a block of whipped and softened cream cheese (or dairy-free) and top it with 1 tablespoon of Trader Joe's Chili Onion Crunch (or other chili oil) mixed with 3 tablespoons of honey. Garnish with some cranberries, rosemary, and a bunch of your seeded crackers too.**Parchment paper is essential; without it, the dough sticks to the rolling pin and is hard to get thin enough to crisp.

Welcome to a new episode of ASMR Sleep Recordings. In this episode, you will hear smooth white noise for total focus. Improve your health and happiness.The sound you hear in this episode creates a calm atmosphere and at the same time blocks out disturbing noises. This will help you de-stress, unwind, and rest. Enjoy two hours of relaxing sounds to help you relax, focus, study and fall asleep.About ASMR Sleep Recordings:The purpose of ASMR Sleep Recording is to help you sleep and concentrate better. This particular episode lasts two hours and has no ads in the middle, so you won't be woken up or disturbed while focusing or relaxing. When you listen to ASMR Sleep Recordings, you can lock your phone, so you won't get any bothersome stimuli from notifications and other sounds from your phone. You can switch between apps while studying or working without pausing the ambient sound.About our sounds:Water creates a natural white noise. Infused with the relaxing quality of nature and the sound-masking properties of white noise, listening to running water is an ideal way to turn off all the stressful things life brings, and to de-stress. Some of our most popular sounds include a river, flowing creek, babbling brook, gentle waves on a lake, and a bamboo fountain. Rain also creates a natural white noise. Infused with the relaxing quality of nature and the sound-masking properties of white noise, listening to rain is an ideal way to switch off all the stressful things life brings and to de-stress. Some of our most popular sounds are rain on an umbrella, hailstorms, hard rain, soft rain, gentle rain, wind and rain, rain on a car.White noise helps babies and children to get a better and deeper night's sleep. This is because external sounds are masked by the noise. With white noise in the background, your child will not hear annoying cars driving by or dogs barking in bed. This allows your little one to sleep better. And it also saves you as a parent a lot of hours!Pink noise is more common in nature than you might expect. It can be compared to continuous rainfall or wind. In addition to white noise, pink noise is also increasing in popularity, especially in business environments. Because it can increase productivity, concentration and creativity.Brown noise can be compared to waves of the sea, a river current, strong winds or the sound of thunder during a storm. Like pink noise, brown noise is very similar to white noise. However, the frequencies have been lowered even further and a lot more concentrated. This gives it a rougher/coarse tone than pink noise. It sounds a bit deeper and a bit bass-like. The benefits of brown noise are the same as the other types of noise. It provides relaxation, increased focus and improved deep sleep.DISCLAIMER: Be aware that loud noises can damage your hearing. If you can't carry on a conversation without raising your voice while playing one of our spheres, the sound may be too loud for your ears. Do not place the speakers directly next to a baby's ears. If you have trouble hearing or ringing in your ears, stop listening to the white noise immediately and see an audiologist or your doctor.

Working with transcripts can feel overwhelming. Client calls. Workshop recordings. Interview transcripts. Pages and pages of raw material—good ideas buried under tangents, half-finished thoughts, and off-the-cuff remarks. The problem usually isn't lack of content. It's too much of it! In this episode, I walk you through a simple, repeatable workflow I use to turn messy transcripts or rough notes into a clear, usable outline—without losing the nuance that actually matters. If you've ever dropped a transcript into AI, asked it to "summarize this," and felt underwhelmed by the result… this episode will show you a much better approach. What You'll Learn Why asking AI to "summarize" is usually the wrong first move How to give AI better signal by starting with context, not content A practical, copy-and-paste prompt for structuring messy transcripts How to preserve nuance, tension, and unresolved thinking Where AI's role ends... and where your judgment matters most Key Ideas Covered in This Episode 1. The Real Risk of AI Summaries AI summaries are often: Clean Organized And emotionally flat When you ask AI to summarize too early, it tends to: Smooth over tension Resolve ambiguity prematurely Erase the very moments that make the thinking interesting But those messy moments are often the most valuable parts of a transcript! 2. Start With Context Before Content Before pasting anything into AI, clarify: What this material is (a client call, interview, workshop, etc.) What you're trying to create (article outline, memo, talk, case study) Who it's for What matters more here: clarity, persuasion, or depth This framing alone dramatically improves the output. 3. Don't Hide Your Own Thinking If you were part of the conversation—or listening closely—you already have insight. You noticed: Patterns Tensions Strong opinions What felt important (even if you're not sure why yet) Dump that thinking into the chat. You can literally say: "Here are my rough and random thoughts so far. None of this is locked in." That gives the model far better signal than a raw transcript on its own. 4. Ask for Structure—Not Writing Before asking AI to write anything, ask it to: Identify themes and recurring ideas Group related concepts into buckets Flag contradictions or unresolved thinking Preserve nuance instead of smoothing it out You're looking for a skeleton here. That's it. 5. A Simple Prompt You Can Use Here's the exact type of instruction I recommend at this stage: Take the role of a skilled research assistant helping me make sense of raw thinking without oversimplifying it. Study the transcript I've attached, along with my rough notes and early thoughts. Nothing here is finalized. I need you to: · Identify the main themes, tensions, and recurring ideas · Group them into a clear outline · Flag nuance, contradictions, or unresolved thinking · Do not write prose, conclusions, or clean summaries This keeps the AI in the right lane. 6. Where Your Role Becomes Clear Once you have structure: You decide what stays You decide what moves You decide what gets cut or combined AI gives you a map. Now it's up to you to choose the route. At this point, writing becomes easier. Not because AI wrote it for you, but because the thinking is no longer chaotic. The Big Takeaway Think in layers. So instead of asking AI to finish the job in one move, use it to: Identify patterns Clarify structure Reduce cognitive load When used this way, AI amplifies your judgement. And that's the goal: to let smart tools handle the grunt work so you can focus on framing, meaning, and persuasion. Listener Reflection Here's the question I'll leave you with: What part of your current workflow would benefit most from letting AI point out patterns while you keep the final call? If you found this episode useful, make sure you're subscribed so you don't miss future conversations on using tools thoughtfully, without giving up your edge as a creative professional.

I'm Howler. A man with a compulsion to create.Welcome back to the Bone Brew, Brave Souls. It is a new year and as is common for most, I have been looking back on things and thinking about where I will take my craft over the next year.I wrote this article last year: This Time Next Year. A vow, about where I wanted to go and what I wanted to do. This is somewhat of an amendment but not really. More like a reintroduction to Me, The Bonebrew, and the Art I seek to create.I don't believe in resolutions. I think that instead, Refusals are far more potent. I think that decisions are far more valuable. So this Article is an expounding upon the conversation in the video. Enjoy! I have quotes and words that guide me.Guide Posts:* Temperance* Awe* Be a Monster* Look at your life, look at your choices.* Slow is Smooth, Smooth is fast.* You are the Universe Experiencing itself.The Newest wordAttendSimple, elegant, not as weighty or heavy as Responsibility, Discipline, Obligation, or Duty (ha I said duty)I think the word ATTEND, Is a North Star this 2026The LieI have lived many a Life.* Soldier* Plumber* Corporate drone* BartenderMore I don't even care to count. Thing is that Often times we will tell creatives that the breadth of experience is the key to making long lasting creative works. And to some degree that has merit but I posit after mulling this over for the last five years; that is frankly a lie, and at best a half truth.We frame it as Tuition for lessons learned. We frame it as cutting our teeth in other fields, we frame it as the long way around. All of it is Cope. Stories to make ourselves feel better for not doing the thing. What ever that creative thing maybe, whether drawing, writing, painting, film making.Excuses and AvoidanceAll of it.Here's a thought experiment. Do you think the first people who drew Superman ever went skydiving?Just sit with that for a second. Did they ever go skydiving? Would they know what it's like to fly?But they drew Superman flying, jumping tall buildings, running at the speed of sound. Did they know what that felt like?So I know, and I can tell you, that art does not require experience.My RoadI can't speak as if I know you. I can only speak from my own road, my own experience. I opened my eyes one morning and felt like I'd wasted time. I was asking myself what the hell I was really doing. There was a festering rot in the pit of my stomach and in the back of my throat…“Plumbing, feeds that part of me that wants to leave something behind so it's feasible. You know, practical artistry…” Every time I said it, I could taste the bile of falsehood bubbling. A half truth. I was sacrificing for love, for obligation, I was being disciplined. There in lies the rub, the friction of it all. The greatest cage I could ever find myself in, the one of my own making. The title of Father, of Husband. Titles I wear proudly.Yet, I could feel the rot. Bubbling, building.This stuff here, this art thing for me, is like its own weird introspective therapy. Its own weird sense of clarity. It helps me think. It challenges me. Oh my God, does it challenge me.And without that... I said this to my dad the other day about it. I would be one mean son of a bitch. God, would I be one mean son of a bitch. If I don't get time to create, I get cranky.The CostWhat pray tell is it?The Anchor of Resentment.To name the thing is to disarm it, to remove it's power. Or at the very least that is the first step. I was resentful of the Titles I wore so proudly. How? Why? How is it that I found myself resenting Roles that I have wanted since I was a boy? How was that even remotely possible?It is far easier, to sail the seas of Novelty without any direction. Yet the cost is often being drowned by the Anchor(s) of Resentment, no matter how noble the Sacrifice. It is only when you are drowning that you will scramble for the closest piece of land. That is when you find yourself where you don't want to be, where you never dreamed of being. The thing about the anchor is this. You might not drown today. Tomorrow.But if you allow it... you will find the entire ship of yur life sinking. And you won't understand why.I'd allowed myself to drift and be taken by the current on the Sea of Novelty, I'd Abandoned myself for the sake of Family.How dangerous a thing. Not for me, but for the ones I love so dearly. I found I was willing to kill my dreams for them, whether I wanted to or not and in doing so I would grow to hate them all the same.The RemedyBut again friction.The RubThey didn't ask that of me, they did not require I kill a part of myself. On the contrary they want the fullest version of me.How would I ever be able to show up for them If I could not show up for myself? How could I ever fully give them my attention if I was always thinking of something else?These were the questions I found and in the asking the answer came from an unlikely source.My boy, my lil dragon, my monster. My son.AttendWe find ourselves back at that word.I took to taking walks with him during the evenings. I try to see the world through his eyes. He notices ants everywhere. The way a blade of grass is different from another. The awe in every lizard, every cloud, in the stars. He notices the things I walk by everyday without notice or care. The Mundane.He simply pays attention to the Mundane.Life is Mundane, most of us will not live some extraordinary existence, most of us will have died within a few miles of where we grew up. Creation does not require some grand adventure. You don't gain the right to be creative because you were adventurous. There is no reward system for having had an extraordinary life. Hell, Kings think themselves ordained by the heavens and it is as normal as breathing, they think their lives mundane because they awake in it each and every day.So what does it take to be a Creative?Attention.In my estimate You must attend to three things.* First and foremost* Your CraftWhatever that craft may be, attend to it's study, inner workings, and the pursuit of it's mastery. Because there is no craft without it's rules, principles, or best practices.* Secondly* SelfYour well being, your mental, your emotional, your spiritual. You ought to know what makes you tick. You ought to know what sets you on fire. You ought to know the question you are constantly seeking to answer within your own craft, and in life.* Lastly * The Mundane. The thing that spits in the face of the ‘Go live' platitude. As creatives we are the ones who make the mundane spectacular, whether it be a starry night, the whine of string, or the horror of human depravity. We are the ones who open the eyes of others, we are the ones who remind people of themselves. We are the bridge between the fantastical and the mundane, the speculative and the everyday.I don't claim that this is easy. Or that world is even conducive to this always. I do know it is the only antidote I have found, the only answer that seems to work for me.It is mundane, monotonous, repetitive, routine work. I used to hate doing that. I used to hate doing the same thing over and over again. But it is here we find depth, It is only in repetition that you find mastery.2026So, this 2026, I am choosing the Depth.I'm choosing the thing that keeps calling my name in the dead of night.

With Incandescence, Smooth Retsina Glow deliver the kind of album that only comes from a band hardened by time, volume, and persistence. Released in October 2025, the Pennsylvania outfit's sixth studio record finds them operating at full command, distilling years of lineup shifts, relentless touring, and creative experimentation into a focused statement. Across ten tracks and forty-nine minutes, the band doesn't chase reinvention so much as refinement, proving how powerful a group can be when it truly knows itself.

Tonight, we are recapping some of our favorite wines of the past year.The winner for the best buy would be from our 6/26/2025 show on Italian wines. A 2022 Madia Torre Zambra Montepulciano d'Abruzzo. We purchased this wine from Costco for $7.99. We both loved the wine and scored it a 4.We also loved the Stone Hill Dry Rose which we tasted on our 5/28/2025 show about Rose'. We purchased this wine from the Winery in Missouri and paid $13.00. Again, we both loved the wine and rated it a 4.My favorite overall wine came from the 7/23/2025 show. It is a 2020 Infinito Monastrell that was purchased at Costco for $14.99. I loved the wine and scored it a 4, Denise was less enthusiastic and rated it a 3. We also had some Honorable Mentions. Oregon Pinot NoirCalifornia Petite Sirah Sonoma Old Vine ZinfandelTonight we are tasting two Cabernet Sauvignons from Chile. They are.2019 Santa Ema Cabernet Sauvignon Reserva from the Maipo Valley, Chile. It received a 90 rating from the Wine Spectator. Aromas of cherries and prunes with notes of menthol, tobacco, and toast. Ripe tannins and tremendous structure. Perfect for grilled meats. 13.5% alcohol. I purchased this wine from Costco for $7.99.2019 Vivendo Cabernet Saquvignon. It is also from the Cachapoal Valley, Chile, but comes from high altitude vineyards. (1600 meters) 14.0% alcohol and comes from the Calyptra Winery. Notes of black cherries, fresh plums, blueberries, along with a floral hint. Smooth tannins and juicy acidity. Tank-aged for 12 months and then bottle-aged for a least 12 months. I purchased this wine from Winestyles for around $20.00.We both liked this wines. Denise rated both wines a 4 and I gave them both a 3 rating. Very different wines, but both are good. The Santa Ema (#1) is a darker and very fruit forward wine. The Vivendo (#2) is dark fruit, but lacks the spiciness and oak of #1. However, the Vivendo is probably a more complex and earthy Cabernet.Next week, its New Years so we will be tasting some Champagne and talking about the past year. Things we are thankful for, list of things we have learned about wine this year, and what's in store for 2026.

For the past 70 years, staff at the North American Aerospace Defence Command – or NORAD - in Colorado Springs have had a very important task: tracking Santa. - Selama 70 tahun terakhir, staf di Komando Pertahanan Dirgantara Amerika Utara (NORAD) di Colorado Springs memiliki tugas yang sangat penting: melacak Santa Claus.

Transitions can make or break a station rotation, especially when time is tight and energy is high. In this episode, I respond to a teacher's question about transitions and logistics by unpacking practical strategies for creating clear, consistent routines that students can actually manage. I share why transition systems need to be explicitly taught and practiced, how strategic seating can eliminate the scramble for spots, and the powerful role of a group facilitator in keeping stations running smoothly. These small design moves reduce friction, protect instructional time, and help students build independence. The strategies connect directly to the design principles in The Station Rotation Model and UDL, with a focus on clarity, predictability, and student agency.

Hey everybody, this is a special Christmas episode where I'm joined by Michael Morelli (Personalist Manifesto podcast) and Paul Hoard (professor at The Seattle School of Theology and Psychology) for a live conversation about what the Incarnation has to say to our algorithmically-mediated moment. We get into Advent as a season of waiting in a world obsessed with immediacy and prediction—drawing on Lacan's understanding of desire, Hartmut Rosa on resonance, and Byung-Chul Han's "hell of the same" to explore how our devices have trained us to be unable to tolerate longing. We talk about incarnation versus ex-carnation (yes, we went there), why smoothness is a trap, how the manger subverts our fantasies of a powerful God, and what Bonhoeffer's Christ-reality hermeneutic might offer disciples trying to encounter genuine otherness in a world of narcissistic loops and NPC-ification. Paul brings the psychoanalytic heat on disgust, love, and why intimacy requires being changed by the other, and Michael reminds us that the cosmos hasn't actually been hijacked by Silicon Valley—despite appearances. We also talk about Black Mirror, The Good Place, board games, and whether Star Trek is secretly fascist. It's nerdy, it's hopeful, and it's exactly the kind of thing you need while driving to Christmas gatherings with sleeping family members in the car.

For anyone interested in the shanghaiing of sailors on the old Portland waterfront, the name “Larry Sullivan” needs no introduction. Smooth, polished, well-connected and ruthless, Larry Sullivan was essentially the Boss Tweed of the Portland waterfront from the early 1890s right up to the moment the music stopped. But in 1904, as the upcoming Lewis and Clark Centennial Exposition drew near, a reforming spirit was in the Portland air. Thousands of visitors were about to come to Portland and see it for the first time, and the city's underworld was far too much on public display for that to go well if changes were not made. Larry Sullivan *was* the Portland underworld, and he had good enough political instincts to know when to hold 'em and when to fold 'em. Selling his stake in the Portland Club, his gambling house, to fellow underworld tycoon Nate Solomon and closing the doors on his sailors' boardinghouse, Larry packed up and headed east, looking for fresh fields of endeavor. And, in a rip-roaring Nevada mining boomtown called Goldfield, he found what he was looking for. And it was at The Palace that Larry met one of the most colorful and rascally characters in the history of American con-artistry: George Graham Rice.

The primary focus of this podcast episode is to share the invaluable resources provided by RV Help, a platform designed to assist RV enthusiasts in maintaining their mobility and enjoyment of the RV lifestyle. I delve into the features and benefits of RV Help, emphasizing its role as a pivotal tool for ensuring that RVers remain on the road without undue stress. In our discussion, we also explore the nostalgic elements of RV travel, advocating for the integration of memories and experiences that enhance the overall journey. Furthermore, I present practical financial strategies that contrast the pursuit of cost-saving measures against the goal of wealth accumulation, ultimately guiding listeners toward more fulfilling travel experiences. As we transition into discussing serene desert destinations, we underscore the tranquility found in these locales, inviting our audience to embrace the quietude that they offer. Also in this episode of The Smart RVer Podcast, we're talking about a few big themes that all tie together: getting help with your RV, making great memories, saving money, and finding peace and quiet out in the desert. First, we look at what we call “RV help” — the idea of having support so you're not out there on your own when something breaks or you're not sure what to do. This means trusted mobile techs, and resources that help you maintain your RV and keep it road-ready. The goal is simple: less stress, more confidence, and more time enjoying the journey instead of worrying about breakdowns. We also talk about adding a little nostalgia to your travels. Maybe it's decorating your RV with classic signs, old-school camp gear, or visiting small towns that feel frozen in time. Those touches from “back in the day” can turn a normal trip into a memory your family will talk about for years. From there, we shift into Money Saving Tips. We share practical ways to save on fuel, campground fees, and food, without feeling like you're “roughing it” all the time. And we don't stop at saving — we also touch on how your spending on the road can fit into your bigger financial picture, so you're not just funding today's trip, but also building long-term stability. Finally, we slow things down and head into the desert. We highlight peaceful destinations like Anza-Borrego and the Mojave National Preserve — places where the quiet, open space helps you reset. It's about stepping away from the noise, soaking in the scenery, and remembering why you started RVing in the first place. Put together, this episode is about traveling smarter: having the right help, making meaningful memories, being wise with your money, and finding those quiet places that refill your tank in more ways than one.

Spiritual Leadership: How to Inspire by Being Inspired   Most leaders try to think their way to clarity — only to get stuck in anxiety, over analysis, and pressure. In this episode, Dr. Yosi Amram reveals a different approach: using the wisdom in your body, not the noise in your mind. His story moves from trauma, military service, and a meteoric rise as a tech CEO… to a spiritual awakening that shattered his identity and led him into a lifetime of inner work.   Key Points with reflection prompts: Your Body Doesn't Lie. Your Ego Does. Your body gives you truth signals long before your mind is ready to accept them. Reflection: Where in your life do you feel tension when you say something you "should" believe Slowing Down Isn't Weak — It's Leadership. "Slow is smooth. Smooth is fast." Reflection: Where is rushing keeping you from clarity Spiritual Intelligence (SQ) Complements Emotional Intelligence. Qualities like humility, presence, purpose, gratitude, and compassion directly correlate to better leadership outcomes. Reflection: Which SQ quality is calling for your attention right now? Awakening Isn't Pretty — It's Disorienting. Yosi's awakening experience triggered a manic episode, cost him his company, and yet became the doorway to his purpose. Reflection: What painful event in your life later revealed itself as guidance? The Future Will Reward Heart, Not Hustle. AI can mimic empathy — but it can't feel. Human connection, presence, creativity, and compassion will define the next era of meaningful work. Reflection: What human quality do you want to cultivate intentionally?   Money Learning from Yosi Amram: Yosi's early money story began with parents who fled Iraq with nothing, rebuilding their lives from tents and scarcity. From that foundation he learned that money creates opportunity — it's what allowed him to attend MIT and Harvard through the support of a relative. But he also learned that money is psychologically loaded: it carries the weight of our upbringing, our fears, our beliefs about success, and our ego. As he shared, our bodies tell the truth while our egos distort it — and that shows up in financial decisions too. When leaders chase money for validation, status, or urgency, they climb ladders against the wrong wall. But when they slow down, get grounded, and lead from inner alignment, money becomes a tool for purpose rather than identity.   Key Takeaway: The deeper truth you're seeking isn't outside of you — it's in your breath, your body, and your willingness to slow down long enough to hear it.   Bio: Yosi Amram, Ph.D., is a licensed clinical psychologist, a CEO leadership coach, a best-selling and award-winning author, and a pioneeing researcher in the field of spiritual intelligence. Previously the founder and CEO of two companies that he has led through successful IPOs, Yosi has coached over 100 CEOs many of whom have built companies with thousands of employees and revenues in the billions.  With engineering degrees from MIT, an MBA from Harvard, and a Ph.D. in Psychology from Sofia University, his pioneering research in the field of spiritual intelligence, has received over 1000 citations.  As a C-Suite, Amazon, and B&N best-selling author of the Nautilus Book Award Gold Medal-winning Spiritually Intelligent Leadership: How to Inspire by Being Inspired, Yosi is committed awakening greater spiritual intelligence (SI) in himself and the world. Yosi is also the founder of several non-profits, including trueMASCULINITY.org, Engendering-Love.org, and AwakeningSI.org.   Links: Website:  https://yosiamram.net     Non-profit: https://awakeningsi.org/  LI: https://www.linkedin.com/in/yosiamram/  Free SI Assessment: https://intelligensi.com/  Psychology Today Blog: https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/spiritual-intelligence  IG: https://www.instagram.com/awakeningspiritualintelligence/   Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Spiritually-Intelligent-Leadership-Inspire-Inspired/dp/1960583697  SILeadership: http://spirituallyintelligentleadership.com  Youtube.com: https://www.youtube.com/@awakeningspiritualintelligence   Where in your life is your body telling you a truth your mind keeps trying to ignore — and what would change if you trusted that inner wisdom?   If this episode opened something for you, share it with someone who's growing and subscribe to Richer Soul for more conversations on purpose, clarity, and inner transformation.   #SpiritualIntelligence #LeadershipDevelopment #InnerWisdom #EgoWork #Mindfulness #YosiAmram #PurposeDrivenLife #SelfAwareness #ConsciousLeadership #RicherSoul   Watch the full episode on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@richersoul Richer Soul Life Beyond Money.
