Podcasts about Something Else

Rachel Kapp, M.Ed., BCET, and Stephanie Pitts, M.Ed., BCET are back to chat about commitment overwhelm. Families often say things like “We're too busy right now” or “Let's wait until next semester.” But sometimes those words aren't about scheduling — they're about commitment overwhelm and that heavy feeling that starting something new, even something helpful, might just be too much to handle. In this episode, Rachel and Steph unpack what commitment overwhelm really is, why it shows up for both learners and families, and how to meet it with empathy and structure instead of pressure.   Support us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/learnsmarterpodcast   How to connect with us: Join our e-mail list Rachel's Kapp Educational Therapy Group website Steph's My Ed Therapist website  @learnsmarterpodcast, @kappedtherapy, @myedtherapist Other episodes mentioned: Ep 07: Educational Therapy vs Tutoring

“Is this autism… or are we missing something?”It's a question so many autism moms quietly wrestle with — especially when behaviors shift, anxiety increases, focus drops, or school becomes harder than it used to be.In this episode of the Not Your Average Autism Mom podcast, Shannon Urquiola dives into one of the biggest conversations happening right now in the autism community:Autism and ADHD overlapAnxiety vs. defianceTrauma responses that look like “behavior problems”When it may be time to push for additional evaluationsAnd how to trust your gut without chasing labelsThis episode is not about collecting diagnoses.It's about lowering the daily struggle.It's about helping your child feel understood and supported.If you've ever wondered whether something feels “different” — not just hard, but different — this conversation will give you clarity, reassurance, and direction. And above all, it will remind you that you are not failing.

Summary In this episode, Andy talks with Wharton economist Judd Kessler, author of Lucky by Design: The Hidden Economics You Need to Get More of What You Want. If you have ever looked at someone else's career success and thought, "They just got lucky," this conversation will give you a new lens. Judd introduces the idea of "hidden markets," the informal rules and systems that shape who gets opportunities, access, and scarce resources, even when money is not changing hands. They explore how leaders can evaluate allocation rules using Judd's three Es (equitable, efficient, and easy), why first come, first served "races" often reward availability more than merit, and how waiting lists can quietly shift costs onto the people least able to pay them. You will also hear Judd's "settle for silver" strategy, a practical way to make smarter choices in competitive markets, plus a thoughtful parenting angle on teaching kids to notice rules and incentives early. If you're looking for a fresh, research-backed perspective on how hidden rules shape who gets opportunities at work and in life, this episode is for you! Sound Bites "The goal of the book is to get people to start to recognizing these markets all around us." "In most of these markets, they play by a simple rule that we all understand, which is if you're willing to pay for the thing, then you get it." "Is the way that we're deciding who gets what... is it equitable? Is it efficient? And is it easy for market participants?" "I open my calendar and I see all these recurring meetings on my calendar, recurring meetings that were set up years or months ago. That's first in time, first in right." "If you understand the rules and develop strategies to get what you want from the market, then you actually can be one of the handful that actually gets the thing, that desirable outcome, and then it will look like you got lucky." "It's always going to be the folks who are in the market winning who are always going to think that it's fair." "Once you start thinking like, how am I actually allocating these things? That's when you've put on that market designer hat." "They'll come to you kind of with half-baked ideas because they know if they wait later on until they can fully bake the idea that the resources or the fun parts of the project might already be gone." "Part of what the Settle for Silver / Go for Gold Strategy is forcing you to do, is to think seriously about what you want and why you want it." "You, as a parent, you are designing the markets that your kids play in all the time." "We're not breaking the rules, but we are figuring out what they are so that we can put ourselves in a good position, and that's going to serve you well." "Maybe by being in the office, you are signaling your dedication to the firm that you're available for all of these opportunities." "If it's something that anybody can do, like send a quick email, right? That's, it's not actually costly. Anybody could send that email even if they're not truly dedicated and eager for the opportunity." "You cannot get all three E's for sure in any allocation mechanism. There's always going to be tradeoffs."

Ryan took overnight contract work because it was simple: show up, do the job, leave. No attachments. No history. No reason for anything to follow him home.This particular job was supposed to be no different—a single night installing equipment in a quiet corporate office after hours. But just after midnight, the routine shattered when a receptionist screamed in terror, claiming he'd been physically struck by something no one could see. Security footage confirmed it. The blows were real. The attacker was not.As the night went on, things escalated. Disembodied typing echoed through empty offices. A woman's voice sang softly where no one stood. And when Ryan saw something moving on a phone camera—something that noticed them watching—he realized this wasn't exhaustion or imagination.He was only there one night. No emotional connection. No reason to believe. And that's exactly why what happened still bothers him.#TrueGhostStory #OvernightShift #ParanormalExperience #RealGhostStories #OfficeHaunting #SecurityFootage #Unexplained #NightShiftHorror #HauntedBuildingsLove real ghost stories?

This week on Hysteria 51, we're serving up a double feature where folklore meets… fecal science. First, we head to rural India, where a woman dodges an arranged marriage by leaving behind a perfectly curated “I turned into a snake” crime scene: a 1.5m shed snakeskin, her jewelry, and clothes arranged like a supernatural mic-drop, sending the village into full naagin panic while police gently remind everyone they're hunting a person, not a serpent.Then we hop across the globe to Nantucket, where the island's wastewater has been tested and the results are basically: “Historic charm, hydrangeas… and cocaine markers popping above national and regional averages.” Because nothing says coastal getaway like your sewer system quietly yelling, “PARTY'S NOT OVER.”Hit play for weird news, wild choices, and the kind of reality that makes you ask, “Are we okay as a species?” (Spoiler: probably not.)Links & Resources

In this episode, Ben sits down with Dr Shyamal Mashru, Consultant Psychiatrist and Medical Lead for Adult ADHD, for a clear and compassionate deep dive into Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD).Often misunderstood or dismissed as being “too sensitive,” RSD is explored here as a real, neurological experience - one that can hijack rational thought, flood the body with emotional pain, and quietly shape relationships, work, and self-worth. Dr Shyamal explains what RSD is (and isn't), how it shows up differently across people, and why ADHD brains may be especially vulnerable.They unpack the science, the role of trauma and hormones, why RSD isn't currently in the DSM, and what actually helps when rejection hits hard.If rejection feels overwhelming, confusing, or deeply personal - this conversation offers clarity, relief, and language for what you may have been carrying alone.Join us at hidden20.org/donate.________Host: Ben BransonProduction Manager: Phoebe De LeiburnéVideo Editor: James ScrivenSocial Media Manager: Charlie YoungMusic: Jackson GreenbergHead of Marketing: Kristen Fuller00:00 Introduction01:00 Dr Shyamal Mashru's ADHD Background & Clinical Work03:15 What Surprises Clinicians About ADHD Assessments04:41 Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria Explained: What RSD Is & Why It Hurts09:16 RSD Coping Mechanisms: Shutdown, People-Pleasing & Avoidance11:44 Is It RSD or Something Else?

They never went away… they're still here.In this episode of NDS Chronicles, the Nephilim Death Squad reads and analyzes real supernatural listener testimonies — encounters involving demons, shadow entities, sleep-state experiences, UFO sightings, and unexplained paranormal events that blur the line between spiritual and physical reality.Are these experiences psychological, spiritual warfare, interdimensional encounters, or something humanity has always struggled to categorize? Raven and TopLobsta break down recurring patterns across testimonies — including shared entity descriptions, sleep-paralysis encounters, and the strange overlap between aliens, ghosts, and biblical fallen-angel narratives.This episode dives into the question many experiencers quietly ask:Why do so many people describe the same beings?

When she was three years old, her mother often heard her talking to someone at the top of the stairs. The answer was always the same: the lady on the landing. Friendly, but stern. A teacher. Someone who listened.The conversations stopped as she grew older, but the unease didn't. The landing never felt empty. The light there never worked. And when illness entered the family, something else did too — a figure in the doorway, a presence that returned every Monday morning at the same time, watching with glowing eyes.Years later, long after leaving that house behind, the feeling came back — not as footsteps or shadows, but as silent televisions, failing lights, and a sudden wave of despair that didn't feel like her own.This isn't a story about a ghost. It's about something that seems to return at thresholds — childhood, solitude, transition — and the unsettling question of whether it was ever external at all.#Ghosts #TrueParanormal #TheLadyOnTheLanding #PsychologicalHaunting #QuietTerror #Hauntings #ChildhoodHaunting #Apparition #HauntedHouse #UnansweredQuestions Love real ghost stories?

(airdate: 2.12.26) Zayn Malik says he's not sure he's ever truly been in love — yes, even when it comes to his relationship with Gigi. Ice cold… but oddly polite about it. Meanwhile, Halle Berry says she's entered her "zero patience left" era and isn't fading quietly into Hollywood. Second act energy activated. And Tate Donovan says he'd absolutely return for an O.C. reboot — even if he has to play the grandpa. Honesty, confidence, and early-2000s nostalgia. That's the lineup.

In this episode of Just Wondering with Norm Hitzges, Norm and Mary Hitzges tackle two heavy but necessary topics: what the Dallas Cowboys should have learned from the Super Bowl — and what America should be learning from the rise of hate in sports.Norm begins with the numbers.The Seattle Seahawks and New England Patriots built Super Bowl teams around defense and balanced salary cap management. Seattle allowed just 17 points per game. New England allowed 18. Meanwhile, the Dallas Cowboys allowed over 30.The bigger story? Cap construction.Dallas' nine highest-paid players account for $239 million of a $300 million cap, leaving little room for what Norm calls the “middlemen” — the $8–15 million players who build roster depth and championship resilience. By contrast, Seattle and New England distribute money far more evenly, creating flexibility and defensive depth that wins in January.Norm then shifts to a broader issue: the rise of hate in American sports. From racial chants and religious slurs to recent incidents involving BYU athletes and Oklahoma State fans, Norm questions whether fines and soft punishments are enough — and whether sports can remain a unifying force when hostility keeps escalating.It's an episode about accountability — financial accountability in the NFL, and moral accountability in sports culture.Defense wins championships.But something else seems to be winning off the field. ⏱️ Chapters00:00 – Did the Cowboys notice what won the Super Bowl?02:26 – The stat that won't go away: 49 of 60 Super Bowls03:04 – Dallas allowing 30+ points per game03:49 – $239M for nine players: the Cowboys' cap problem05:19 – How Seattle structures its salary cap06:50 – New England's middle-tier roster advantage07:44 – Jerry Jones and the love of star power08:35 – Former Cowboys thriving elsewhere09:24 – Sponsor: Bob's Steak & Chop House10:18 – Full Moon Healing Balm11:38 – The rise of hate in America13:35 – Hate moving into sports arenas14:18 – BYU chants and Oklahoma State's response14:58 – Is $50,000 enough?15:46 – “On the love-hate scoreboard, hate seems to be winning.”16:08 – Closing thoughts Check us out: patreon.com/sunsetloungedfwInstagram: sunsetloungedfwTiktok: sunsetloungedfwX: SunsetLoungeDFWFB: Sunset Lounge DFW #JustWondering #NormHitzges #DallasCowboys #DefenseWins #NFLSalaryCap #SportsCulture #SuperBowl Just Wondering is a long-form sports commentary podcast hosted by longtime broadcaster Norm Hitzges, offering thoughtful, numbers-driven analysis of the NFL, college sports, the NBA, and the business and culture surrounding them.

He didn't call with a ghost story.He called because of a question that keeps coming up—one that stops conversations cold and leaves people quietly judging each other. In his family, belief in the paranormal isn't dismissed… it's feared. Not because the supernatural isn't real, but because of what it might actually be.He's spent years investigating unexplained phenomena using equipment, logic, and experience. But to some of the people closest to him, that doesn't matter. To them, if someone is gone, they're gone. Which means whatever answers back shouldn't exist at all.A single comment from a relative—meant as a warning—changed how he understood the resistance he'd been facing for years. It wasn't about disbelief. It was about certainty. This call isn't about proving anything. It's about where belief draws its hardest lines… and what happens when curiosity crosses them.#RealGhostStoriesOnline #ParanormalDebate #GhostHunting #ReligionAndTheParanormal #CatholicBeliefs #SpiritualWarfare #DemonsVsGhosts #AfterlifeQuestions #ParanormalPodcast #TrueParanormal Love real ghost stories?

 If you're honest, you've probably asked yourself this at least once: We're trying so hard… so why does nutrition still feel so confusing?In this episode of the Gymnast Nutritionist Podcast, Christina breaks down one of the biggest disconnects she sees with families of competitive gymnasts: parents believe they're fueling well but key pieces are missing that directly impact health, growth, and performance.Nutrition advice is everywhere, and much of it is designed for adults not growing, training athletes. In this episode, Christina dives into why young gymnasts' needs are completely different, and how common obsessions with protein and fiber can actually backfire when basic fueling isn't in place.If your gymnast:Is “eating healthy” but still struggles with energyGets full quickly but isn't meeting fueling needsRelies heavily on protein products or fiber-boosted foodsHas inconsistent performance, focus, or recovery…it's time to look closer.Christina explains: ❗ Why protein needs for gymnasts are often misunderstood ❗ How fiber can create a false sense of fullness in under-fueled athletes ❗ Why real food matters more than fortified products ❗ How timing around training impacts performance and safety ❗ What successful families are doing differently to support long-term growth and consistencyHere's the hard truth: adequate fueling is a safety issue. Gymnasts can work incredibly hard in the gym but if their bodies aren't properly supported, progress stalls and injury risk rises.If you're stuck in the cycle of “we're doing everything right, but nothing is improving,” this episode will help you identify what's missing and what to focus on first.

Let's unpack a truth most people don't want to admit: the thing you're avoiding is action. When you leave inaction untouched, it does not sit quietly. It grows. It drains you. And it quietly reshapes your life through mental drag, stress, and procrastination. Unaddressed conversations don't sit still. Ignored decisions don't pause. Delayed action doesn't disappear. It compounds. It leaks energy, creates anxiety, and slowly trains your nervous system to stay stuck. In this episode, Troy introduces the Bison Theory, a counterintuitive truth rooted in real behavior: while most animals run away from storms and stay trapped in them longer, bison run straight into the storm, shortening how long they suffer. This episode isn't about hype or grit for grit's sake. It's about why facing the thing you're avoiding is the fastest path to transformation, and how movement, not certainty, is what breaks the loop. If you've felt the weight of indecision, the drag of unfinished business, or the mental exhaustion of too many open loops, this conversation will feel uncomfortably familiar in the best way.This Episode Covers:Why avoidance is active, not neutral, and how it quietly compounds stressHow “direction determines duration” when it comes to pain and changeWhy facing the storm creates momentum even before clarity shows upHow anticipation of pain often hurts longer than the pain itselfThe real reason action restores energy faster than motivation ever willHow to stop negotiating with reality and start reclaiming agencyWhy transformation begins the moment you turn toward what you've been running fromBeyond The Episode Gems:Subscribe To My New Weekly LinkedIn Newsletter: Strategize.

A relationship question sparks a surprisingly deep conversation on The Jubal Show: how do you actually know if your partner is “needy,” or if what you’re seeing is something more serious? A viral psychologist study breaks down the most common signs—and the list gets uncomfortable fast. From constant texting and jealousy to blurred boundaries and emotional burnout, the crew unpacks where normal reassurance ends and red flags begin.Support the show: https://the-jubal-show.beehiiv.com/subscribeSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Tonight Brian sits down with Jacob from Oregon expecting to talk about Bigfoot, but boy was he wrong. What begins as a straightforward conversation about Sasquatch quickly veers into far stranger territory, as Jacob reveals a series of encounters that stretch the limits of what most people consider possible. Jacob explains how his journey into the unexplained started with disturbing reports out of the Congo and eventually led him deep into the forests of Washington and Oregon. Along the way, he collected eyewitness testimonies and experienced events that pointed to something far beyond the traditional Sasquatch narrative. He recounts chilling descriptions of massive, reptilian, winged creatures seen in remote wilderness areas, including a shocking encounter that forces both host and listener to rethink what might still exist beyond the reach of accepted science. As the conversation unfolds, Jacob addresses the skepticism surrounding these sightings, exploring how such creatures could exist outside known classifications and why dismissing them outright may be premature. The discussion expands into the realm of high strangeness, touching on theories involving environmental anomalies, unexplained aerial phenomena, and the possibility of portals, while drawing intriguing parallels to other legendary encounters often reported around the world.Throughout the episode, Jacob emphasizes the importance of approaching the unexplained with an open mind, careful investigation, and a willingness to follow the evidence wherever it leads—even when it challenges everything we think we know.The Ropen Network YouTube Get Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.

And it ended with their deaths.Shavaun breaks down the psychology of families trapped in cycles they can't escape—and what other families dealing with similar situations need to understand.From the full Shavaun Scott interview on Hidden Killers.

She had always seen things others didn't—figures that vanished when she focused, animals that didn't belong, the quiet appearance of a man who had died days earlier, standing in a doorway just long enough to say goodbye. Those moments never frightened her. They felt brief. Complete. Finished.That changed after she survived something violent at seventeen. Years later, in a new apartment, a different presence made itself known—not by appearing, but by watching. Doors opened without drafts. Objects shifted subtly. A heaviness settled in her chest at night, cold and intentional. Worse than fear was the sense that whatever lingered was aware of her awareness.Her sister felt it too. The dead she'd seen as a child had never noticed her back. This did. She stopped trying to explain it. She stopped giving it attention. And slowly, what watched from the edges began to retreat. Because seeing something doesn't mean you belong to it.#TrueGhostStory #SeeingTheDead #ParanormalAwareness #TraumaAndTheParanormal #UnexplainedExperiences #ShadowPresence #RealParanormal #SurvivorStories #LingeringPresence #TrueParanormal Love real ghost stories?

In the months after Lila's mother passed, the house they once shared began to feel… different. Too aware. Too watchful. As a grieving 13-year-old trying to hold herself together, Lila chalked it up to imagination—until the quiet corners of the home started whispering back.Strange footsteps echoed from rooms no one entered. Voices called her name from empty stairwells. Objects shifted when no one was near them. And on more than one night, something moved through the house with an unmistakable familiarity… as if it knew exactly where her mother used to walk.But not everything Lila encountered felt comforting. Some moments were gentle, almost protective. Others left her frozen in place, questioning whether the presence in the house was her mother—or something else entirely.As the anniversary of her mother's death approached, the house seemed to come alive around her, responding in ways she couldn't explain and didn't dare acknowledge.#ghoststories, #realghoststoriesonline, #paranormalencounters, #hauntedhouse, #spiritvisitation, #afterlife, #supernaturalactivity, #creepyphenomena, #trueghoststory, #unexplainedeventsLove real ghost stories?

In real estate, you expect odd disclosures now and then—leaky roofs, old wiring, maybe a neighbor who mows the lawn at midnight. But nothing prepared a seasoned Baltimore broker for what unfolded after helping a young agent buy her first home. The purchase itself felt strange from the beginning: missing sellers, rushed signatures, an unsettling urgency hanging over the closing table. And once the family moved in, the house began to breathe in a way no home should—whispers, footsteps, shadows that seemed to grow stronger as the seasons changed. When an unexpected connection to a past investigation surfaced—one involving a missing infant, secret rituals, and a family torn apart—the haunting inside the home took on a far darker shape. Whatever lived in that house didn't stay politely in its shadows.  This is the true story of a house with a history no one wanted—and a presence that never seemed willing to leave. #hauntedhouse #realestatehaunting #trueghoststory #paranormalencounter #satanicrituals #unexplainedphenomena #entityattachment #supernaturalactivity #hauntedmaryland #realghoststoriesonline Love real ghost stories?

An old farmhouse in the Ozarks. A newly adopted son with unexplainable nightmares. Voices telling children to ride their bikes onto the highway. Manifestations at 3 am. A dark figure with red eyes. And a portal beneath the hallway floor. Susanna's family moved into a house that had sat vacant for over a year, with previous owners' clothes still hanging in the closets, family photos abandoned in the chicken coop. She didn't think much of it. Not everything is spiritual, right? Then she went to a prayer retreat, women prayed protection over her, and she came home able to see what had been hiding in plain sight. What followed was five months of intense warfare and years of fighting for her youngest son. Her husband spoke in demonic languages while sleeping. Her three-year-old made the sound of a goat being slaughtered. Her daughter had visions of creatures clawing to get in and a sealed hole beneath the house that could become unsealed. Susanna tried everything: anointing oil, property line prayers, texting YouTube exorcists. But it wasn't until God sent an African woman from her old Bible study that the generational curse over her son was finally broken. This is one of the wildest testimonies we've had on Blurry Creatures, and a reminder that Christianity isn't Harry Potter. There are no magic words. Sometimes the battle is long. But God is faithful.
