Vous vous apprêtez à écouter un épisode que j'ai enregistré il y a quelques mois dans le cadre du festival Equal organisé par Spotify.Equal c'est une opération qui permet de mettre en avant exclusivement des femmes musiciennes et vous me connaissez, moi on me dit qu'on met exclusivement des femmes en avant, j'accours.Vous allez donc écouter une table ronde dont l'objectif est de prendre le pouls de la santé mentale des femmes dans l'industrie de la musique, mais aussi du cinéma et de la littérature. Mes trois invitées étaient Yoa, la chanteuse, musicienne géniale que vous avez déjà entendue dans Folie Douce, Chloé Delaume, l'écrivaine féministe fabuleuse - qui est un peu la marraine de Folie Douce puisque c'était l'invitée de mon premier épisode - et Amélie Bonnin, la cinéaste réalisatrice du film Partir un jour.Avec elles on a discuté de comment aller bien dans une industrie encore profondément sexiste, comment aller bien quand on crée, comment aller bien quand on partage ses créations, quand on se confronte au monde, aux avis, aux réseaux sociaux.Ce jour-là avec nous il y avait un public composé de jeunes artistes venues en prendre de la graine.Franchement je sais que vous aussi vous serez inspiré·e par ce qu'on s'y raconte. Vous verrez, cet échange est passionnant, plein d'humour et de vrais conseils, dont je retiens le principal : quoi qu'il arrive, coller à soi.Bonne écoute, et prenez soin de vous.Photo : Good SistersRetrouvez juste ici un formulaire pour m'aider à mieux vous connaître, communauté de Folie Douce !

Why walk with God when answers don't come quickly—and sometimes don't come at all? Watch the video of this episode on YouTube here. Russell and Beth join forces again to embark on the Bible's darkest terrain: Ecclesiastes and Job. Drawing from Beth's current teaching on Job, her newly released Bible study, and Russell's work through Hebrews 11, they explore why Scripture so often leaves suffering unresolved. Along the way, they reflect on faith as endurance rather than fragility, and the long, quiet formation that happens through daily obedience rather than spiritual breakthroughs. Beth shares wisdom shaped by decades of teaching, parenting, journaling, and marriage—including what she's learned about letting God hold people we love and how stubborn grace can sustain a life and a marriage over time.  The conversation turns finally to Job, Gethsemane, and the cries of Jesus, who not only models lament, but gathers it up and answers it entirely with his death and resurrection. If you're living through uncertainty, carrying grief you can't yet resolve, or learning how to trust God without clarity—and you're comforted by a conversation that refuses clichés while still insisting on hope—this episode is for you.

À 16 ans, Jonathan Anguelov livre des pizzas sous la pluie dans le 7ème arrondissement de Paris.Il arrive trempé devant une porte qui s'ouvre sur trois jeunes en smoking, au bras de filles magnifiques, en route pour un gala. Des anciens camarades de classe.Ils le reconnaissent. Ils rigolent. Ils se foutent de sa gueule, prennent les pizzas et lui claquent la porte au nez.Ce jour-là, Jonathan se jure : plus jamais.Plus jamais la honte. Plus jamais l'humiliation. Plus jamais être celui qu'on regarde de haut.Quelques années plus tard, il co-fonde Aircall. La boîte devient une licorne valorisée à plus d'un milliard de dollars. Jonathan est aujourd'hui investisseur immobilier (200 millions d'actifs achetés), au casting de "Qui veut être mon associé" sur M6, et incarne l'un des parcours les plus brutaux et inspirants de la French Tech.Mais son histoire commence bien avant Aircall.Mère immigrée bulgare. Père inconnu. Famille d'accueil. Faim. Solitude. Une mère escroquée qui perd tout et sombre dans l'alcool. Un gamin balloté de foyers en foyers, qui découvre les cités HLM, les bagarres, le froid... et cette honte qui ne le quitte pas.Dans cet épisode d'Off The Record, Jonathan se livre sans filtre :→ Comment la honte est devenue son carburant→ L'histoire des 26€ manquants qui ont changé la culture d'Aircall→ Pourquoi l'immobilier reste son premier amour (et son meilleur investissement)→ Sa vision sans concession sur la France, les impôts et l'entrepreneuriat→ Pourquoi il refuse de partir malgré toutUne question traverse tout l'entretien : qu'est-ce qui nous pousse vraiment à réussir ? La passion, le talent... ou l'esprit de revanche ? Cette épisode nous aura pris deux ans à enregistrer... et je me rends compte combien il était nécessaire. Merci Jonathan pour ta confiance

In this episode, Sandy and Nora talk about Mark Carney's Act II -- after his head-turning speech at Davos, he comes home to expose how little he knows about Canadian history. Plus, why are we always talking about military invasion when the real threat from the United States is cultural and economic? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Hello Unlimited Leaguers! We are flying off to the Fortress of Solitude. I hope we got Superman a good birthday gift. It is hard to compete with Wonder Woman's flower and Batman's money. What do you get the man who has everything? Batman and Wonder Woman are off to help Clark celebrate his birthday. Things do not go as planned. Superman is locked in the grip of the Black Mercy. It is a plant the keeps the captured person in their most fulfilling fantasies.  Kal-el is a farmer on Krypton. His wife, Loana (combo of Lois and Lana), his son Van-El, Krypto, and Brainiac the helper robot make his home complete. Krypton was never destroyed. His father is still a leading scientist. Things are different for Kal-El but his personality, drive, and morals remain the same. But as events in the real-world creep in as earthquakes, Kal-El realizes the fantasy. Batman and Wonder Woman must figure out how to break Clark out. Mongul sent the Black Mercy to stop Superman. With no Superman he wants to take over the Earth. Wonder Woman begins to fight him while Batman tries to break through to Clark. Things are not looking good as only Superman is strong enough to keep Mongul at bay, as we see Wonder Woman getting beat down like we've never seen before! As Batman finally is able to pull the flower off of Supes, he's able to come back to reality just in time, and goes to help fight Mongul. Batman is taken over but breaks free quickly. Wonder Woman puts a stop to the even battle between Superman and Mongul. She throws the Black Mercy on Mongul and takes him out.   Contact Information: If you want to join in the discussion, you can submit feedback via email to TomorrowsLegendsPodcast@gmail.com or at at https://www.speakpipe.com/TomorrowsLegends .

durée : 00:04:07 - Comme personne - Depuis 2018, la Journée mondiale des solitudes se déroule le 23 janvier, initiée par l'association nationale Astrée, qui lutte contre la solitude et l'isolement social des personnes de tout âge. Carole Choplin dirige l'antenne du Mans. Elle a fait de la solitude son combat quotidien.

In this final installment of our series on spirituality and adventure, I sit down with Bishop Mark Beckman, the 4th Bishop of the Diocese of Knoxville, to explore what happens when faith is formed not just in quiet rooms, but in wild places. From hiking solo through old-growth forests to walking hundreds of miles on pilgrimage, Bishop Beckman shares how discomfort, silence, and physical effort can open us to something deeper than words. We talk about the moments that push us to the edge of our capacity—storms in the backcountry, long days of walking, fear at high elevations—and how those experiences can shape trust, humility, and presence. This conversation is a reminder that adventure doesn't only take us outward into the world, but inward toward meaning, mystery, and a deeper awareness of God. Episode Timeline [2:22] – Bishop Mark Beckman's calling to ministry and how the outdoors shaped his faith from an early age [6:45] – Discovering God's presence through solitude, silence, and hiking alone in the woods [10:48] – Forming a men's backpacking group and finding unexpected community on the trail [16:05] – Walking the Camino de Santiago and learning trust one step at a time [22:40] – Pushing through fear and physical limits on a 14,000-foot peak in Colorado [30:12] – Retreat, silence, and wilderness as pathways to deeper spiritual awareness [38:05] – Suffering, endurance, and how hardship can deepen us instead of hardening us Links & Resources Appalachian Trail Denali National Park Camino de Santiago If you enjoyed this episode, I'd really appreciate it if you'd rate, review, follow, and share the podcast.

Ce début d'année a des allures de dystopie, je sais. J'ai moi-même un petit coup de mou, comme je vous le confie dans l'introduction de cet épisode, qui tombe à pic.Mon invitée, la poétesse Kiyémis, déteste les dystopies. Et nous propose, pour balayer la peur, de convoquer la joie, la joie comme outil de résistance, responsabilité collective et pratique politique. Oui la joie est une déraison, voire une folie face à la violence du monde. Mais le monde n'est-il pas lui-même absolument déraisonnable ?Je connais Kiyémis depuis longtemps. J'observe depuis des années sa voix s'épanouir et ses vers fleurir « et refleurir » - du titre de son magnifique roman sur l'histoire de sa grand-mère - sur nos plaies. Sa dernière production est un ouvrage collectif intitulé : « Pour la Joie, Une ode à la résistance poétique et politique » (ed. Les Liens qui Libèrent), un ouvrage collectif où l'on retrouve à ses côtés les plumes de plusieurs autrices : Rim Battal, Douce Dibondo, Claude-Emmanuelle Gaian-Maull, Nadia Yala Kisukidi, Mélissa Laveaux, Fania Noël, Laura Nsafou et Coline Pierré.Plongez vous dans cet épisode, imbibez-vous du rire de Kiyémis, des quelques lignes qu'elle lit pour vous à voix haute, et convainquez-vous, avec nous, que « l'autre rive existe ». Une expression qui oblige à l'espoir, à l'amour, à la lutte. Elle est une façon de fuir la peur qui paralyse et d'habiller de lumière la colère, qui reste une boussole mais, à la longue, épuise les corps.De corps, il est beaucoup question aussi dans notre échange. Kiyémis aborde son enfance de petite fille « solaire » qui aime écrire, rêvasser et danser devant son miroir, suivie d'une adolescence où les injonctions à « se faire petite » ont eu raison de son élan. Elle qui est l'autrice d'un essai sur la grossophobie « Je suis votre pire cauchemar », nous invite à faire corps avec ce corps et à l'envisager comme un navire puissant, un survivant magnifique capable de nous faire jouir de la beauté du monde et surtout de créer.Car la clé de la leçon de Kiyémis c'est créer. Dans son cas, écrire. Elle nous désigne ainsi la possibilité de grandir non pas malgré mais à partir des traumatismes des générations précédentes. « Les roses héritent des épines, mais aussi des couleurs », souligne-t-elle vers la fin de notre échange, dans un passage que vous n'êtes pas prêtes d'oublier.Bonne écoute et n'hésitez pas à nous faire des retours sur vos plateformes de podcasts et sur les réseaux sociaux.Photo : Adeline RaponRetrouvez juste ici un formulaire pour m'aider à mieux vous connaître, communauté de Folie Douce !

Jace and Rocky break down another Comic Boom! / Comic Source DC Spotlight for the week of January 21, 2026, with only seven single issues on the slate but a massive week for reprints and collected editions—including major Absolute line reprints like Absolute Batman #1 10th printing and Absolute Batman Annual #1 2nd printing, plus facsimiles such as Batman #676 and Superman #75, and a packed shelf of collected editions ranging from Batman: Gotham by Gaslight Compact Comics to DC's Finest: Doom Patrol, Green Lantern by Robert Venditti Omnibus Vol. 2, The Invisibles Compendium, New History of the DCU, Absolute Promethea Vol. 2, Resurrection Man: Quantum Karma, and Young Justice Omnibus Vol. 2. On the single-issue side, Batman/Superman: World's Finest #47 wraps up the Absorbicon chaos with the Joker/Luthor fusion, the world briefly losing knowledge, and a lingering "Fusion" mystery locked away in the Fortress of Solitude; DC KO: Green Lantern – Galactic Slam #1 becomes the week's standout as Jeremy Adams brings Kyle Rayner into WAM's multiversal wrestling spectacle, delivers Omega Bam Man's origin, and ties the concept directly into Darkseid and the DC KO stakes; Titans #31 splits focus between Donna Troy and Arsenal battling Grail on Earth and Nightwing/Raven's Gemworld complications as Terra turns opportunistic; Superman Unlimited #9 launches "Die Laughing" with a new, more hands-on Prankster targeting Perry White and Superman leveraging Clark Kent's reporting to bait the killer into exposing himself, while also planting Mxyzptlk-related seeds; Catwoman #83 continues Selina's Europe-set intrigue with Falcone connections and Court of Owls pressure as the run edges toward a more familiar Gotham-facing direction; Nightwing #134 keeps Dick in the Fifth Dimension facing the Zanni while real-world consequences escalate, including damage that reverberates back to Blüdhaven; and Wonder Woman #29 begins a two-part "The Village" detour to Themyscira with striking Jeff Spokes visuals and Strife's arrival setting the hook for what comes next, before both hosts give their rankings with Galactic Slam taking the top spot.

The episode follows AMBUSH's evolution from jewelry made for friends to a brand that Yoon describes as a platform, shaped by experimentation rather than a rigid business plan. She speaks candidly about learning in real time, being paid to learn, and why every job and skill eventually becomes useful. From research as a daily practice to AI as a tool that can accelerate creative work without replacing it, Yoon makes a case for staying open, resisting the urge to live in boxes, and trading horizontal expansion for deeper, more human storytelling. Her definition of what feels contemporary now is simple and powerful, pursuing who you are fearlessly, and staying uniquely human in a world increasingly driven by algorithms. Episode Highlights: A childhood shaped by movement and solitudeGrowing up between Korea, Hawaii, California, and Seattle, Yoon reflects on how constant relocation fostered independence, imagination, and an ability to adapt quickly to new environments. Solitude as a creative advantageTime spent alone became a space for imagination rather than isolation, laying the groundwork for curiosity, inner confidence, and long-term creative resilience. Subculture as a formative educationFrom Seattle's grunge era to Tokyo's club scene, Yoon describes how underground culture, music, and nightlife taught her more about identity and community than any formal training. Discovering design through curiosity, not strategyHer path into graphic design and later fashion emerged organically through interests in magazines, presentation, and visual storytelling, rather than a predefined career plan. Being paid to learn as a philosophyYoon frames early jobs, including PR and corporate design work, as opportunities to learn on someone else's dime, reinforcing her belief that no experience is wasted. AMBUSH as an organic unfoldingWhat began as jewelry made for friends evolved naturally into a brand, then into a platform, driven by experimentation, relationships, and responding to real demand rather than market forecasting. Tokyo as a creative accelerantMoving to Japan exposed Yoon to layered subcultures, cross-pollination between music and fashion, and a culture open to hybridity, shaping AMBUSH's DNA. Fashion as communication, not productYoon describes fashion as a visual language for expressing identity and connection, rather than simply clothing or commercial output. AI as a tool, not a replacementShe speaks openly about embracing AI as a powerful assistant that can accelerate research and execution, while insisting that creative intent and thinking cannot be outsourced. What feels contemporary nowFor Yoon, being contemporary today means fearlessly pursuing who you are, resisting algorithmic pressure, and staying grounded in humanity, curiosity, and purpose rather than chasing scale.

Silence and Solitude are not optional for spiritual health - they were foundational to Jesus' life and power. We will never hear God clearly if we are never quiet.

Take a run with The Human Potential Running Series podcast. In Episode 76, HPRS Race Director John Lacroix welcomes special guest Izzy Davis, a Colorado native now living in Kellogg, Idaho. Izzy ran the Sangre de Cristo 100 Mile as her first trail race, first ultra, and first hundred miler. With no crew and no pacer, she won outright in 29 hours, 23 minutes. This conversation starts with the race and quickly turns into the real story. Izzy is a ski patroller turned avalanche forecaster with the Idaho Panhandle Avalanche Center. She is built around risk management, spreadsheets, and big mountain decision making. Then she lost her partner Willie last winter, suddenly, to cardiac arrest while skiing. Running became her way to keep moving. Not as an escape, more like a place to process. Solitude. Flow state. A quiet mind. A goal that gave her something to aim at when everything felt upside down. We talk about grief and gratitude living side by side. We talk about how her risk tolerance shifted after loss, while her responsibility stayed intact. We talk about the idea that running can be therapy, even when the internet wants to argue about it. We talk about carrying someone's legacy forward through how you live. You will hear the phrase "WWWD," What would Willie do. If you need a reminder to get outside, move your body, and do the next small good thing, this one will land.

Nous sommes en 1757, chez le duc d'Ayen à Saint-Germain-en-Laye, à une vingtaine de kilomètres, à l'ouest de Paris. Ce jour-là a lieu la première représentation du « Fils naturel, ou Les épreuves de la vertu ». Il s'agit d'un drame en cinq actes et en prose écrit par Denis Diderot. L'histoire est celle de deux amis dont l'un demande à l'autre de plaider sa cause auprès d'une jeune fille qu'il adore. Le texte contient un phrase qui va faire bouillir Jean-Jacques Rousseau, ami de Diderot. « Il n'y a que le méchant qui soit seul ». Rousseau prendra pour lui cette critique et s'en ouvrira dans « Les Confessions », son autobiographie. Un peu moins d'un siècle plus tard, dans son poème intitulé « La fin de Satan », Victor Hugo écrit à propos de la solitude : « L'enfer est tout entier dans ce mot » , alors qu'en 1903, Rainer Maria Rilke, dans une de ses « Lettres à un jeune poète » rêve à « Être seul, seul comme l'enfant est seul ». Silencieuse, inquiétante, sournoise, la solitude a longtemps, et peut-être encore toujours, été connotée négativement, provoquant la méfiance et même le rejet. Elle s'abat sur les plus faibles, pense-t-on : les malades, les pauvres, les veuves, les célibataires, les fous, les victimes de guerres ou de famines. Mais vint un temps où la solitude s'est imposée comme une condition nécessaire à l'accomplissement de soi. Un long processus qui s'étend sur tant de siècles… Revenons sur quelques étapes essentielles pour comprendre… Avec nous : Sabine Melchior-Bonnet « Histoire de la solitude – de l'ermite à la célibattante » ; PUF.

Hello Beautiful, I'm so grateful you're here with me.

Creative work requires two movements: going inward into solitude and reaching outward into community. Neither is better than the other—what matters is learning to sense which one you need in the moment. This meditation helps you feel the gifts each offers, recognize the signals that you need more of solitude or connection, and trust your own rhythm.REFLECTION QUESTIONS → What signs tell you when to seek solitude? When to seek community?AFFIRMATION → Community and solitude / Both are sacred movementsWANT TO LEARN MORE? → Join us live for the full WONDER YEAR program in 2026 for a communal journey with monthly reflections, live gatherings, workshops, and ongoing support to help you build a sustainable, deeply personal creative practice. We'd love to have you

Welcome to the Via Stoica Podcast, the podcast on Stoicism.In this episode, we explore why the idea of the Stoic lone wolf is a myth. While modern culture often praises isolation and radical self reliance as strength, the Stoics understood human beings as deeply social by nature. Solitude can restore us, but cutting ourselves off from others slowly erodes purpose and direction.Marcus Aurelius captures this clearly when he writes:“Have you ever seen a severed hand or foot, or a decapitated head, lying somewhere apart from the rest of the body? That is what a person makes of himself when he refuses to accept what happens and cuts himself off from others.”Marcus Aurelius, Meditations 8.34He is not condemning solitude, but reminding us that we flourish only when we see ourselves as part of a larger whole.This episode reflects on the difference between chosen solitude and harmful isolation, the Stoic importance of roles and duties, and why real strength lies in connection, responsibility, and contribution. Stoicism invites us not to withdraw from life, but to take our place in it with reason, kindness, and steadiness.Listen to the full episode now and discover how connection and responsibility can transform the way you think, act, and see your life.Read the related article: https://viastoica.com/why-the-stoic-lone-wolf-doesnt-exist/Support the show

This is a special episode of For the Good of the Public, cross-posted with "Conversing with Mark Labberton." https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/conversing-with-mark-labberton/id1161564408 Can joy be anything but denial in a rage-filled public life? Michael Wear joins Mark Labberton to reframe politics through the kingdom logic of hope, agency, and practices of silence and solitude. As 2025 closes amid political discord, we might all ask whether joy can be real in public life—without denial, escapism, or contempt. "… Joy is a pervasive and constant sense of wellbeing." In this conversation, Michael Wear and Mark Labberton reflect on joy, hope, responsibility, and agency amid a reaction-driven politics. Together they discuss the realism of Advent; the limits of our control; how kingdom imagination reframes anger; hope beyond outcomes, dignity under threat, and practices (including silence and solitude) that restore clarity. About Michael Wear Michael Wear is the Founder, President, and CEO of the Center for Christianity and Public Life, a nonpartisan nonprofit that contends for the credibility of Christian resources in public life, for the public good. He has served for more than a decade as a trusted advisor to civic and religious leaders on faith and public life, including as a presidential campaign and White House staffer.

The concept of alone time has long been framed as a cause for concern, but research shows that intentional solitude actually has a lot of perks.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Why do we say Merry Christmas instead of Happy Christmas? The phrase has a surprisingly rich past, shaped by culture, language, and holiday tradition. This episode begins with where “merry” came from and why it stuck. https://time.com/6240140/why-we-say-merry-christmas-traditions/ Being alone isn't the same as being lonely. In fact, choosing solitude can offer profound psychological and emotional benefits. Robert J. Coplan joins me to explain why. He has spent more than three decades studying the upside of time alone. Robert is a psychologist, researcher, teacher, and author of The Joy of Solitude: How to Reconnect with Yourself in an Overconnected World. (https://amzn.to/3KX25NE) Christmas traditions evolve far more than we realize — from how we celebrate to who we imagine Santa to be. The Santa Claus of today looks very different from his earlier counterparts, and the holiday itself has gone through dramatic shifts over time. Joe Biel, founder and CEO of Microcosm Publishing and author of A People's Guide to Santa Claus: The Secret History of Christmas, from Saint Nick to Krampus and Yule (https://amzn.to/48MTN2J) joins me to explore these surprising transformations. Owning a pet can actually make you more attractive — and not just because pets are cute.

You know about breath work. You know about cold exposure. It's a thing all the major "influencers" tell you to do. I had some skepticism myself and that's why I wanted to have this man, the original cold exposure and breath work guy on himself, Wim Hof! He is a man who has redefined the limits of the human mind and body. Known globally as The Iceman, Wim Hof has shown millions of people how to take control of their physiology through breath, cold exposure, and mindset. From climbing mountains in nothing but shorts to teaching everyday men how to regulate stress, build resilience, and reconnect with their primal strength, Wim's work challenges everything we think we know about comfort, health, and human potential. Today, we're talking about cold, breath, discipline, and what it really means to return to our factory settings as men.
