If you can tell a little bit of difference in my voice, I’ve actually had a cold for a bit and I’m just now to the point where my voice is somewhat normal and I’m not sniffling and sneezing and being totally obnoxious. So I really wanted to go ahead and record this episode to share several things with you and to wish you happy holidays. Where I am right now in the US, it is currently Christmas Eve. So I have actually still got a lot of things to do today. We’re actually having lasagna for dinner. The boys are both home for Christmas. So that is their request. So I’ll be making some homely lasagna tonight. And then tomorrow we will be enjoying a roast beast, which I always kind of laugh when I say that because it’s from the Grinch movie, I believe. I always call it the roast beast. So just a roasted. Primed Rib Roast and yeah, so looking forward to sharing the holiday with my family and just catching up on some things quite honestly, because the last several weeks have been a bit of a whirlwind and with me not feeling as well, I’m behind on some things that I need to record and share with you. So we’ll just get right into it. The first thing I wanna talk about is building habits in the new year. So. We’re getting ready to come into that time. And if you followed my content for a while, you’ve heard me talk about it before is whenever we come to this time of year, people make a lot of New Year’s resolutions. And typically what happens is by sometimes even before the end of January, people have already given up on their resolutions or they what usually happens actually is they’ve bitten off more than they can chew. They’ve made these kind of resolutions that are just too big without taking the steps they need to do first to build up to that. And so I always like to encourage you to take small little steps towards habits. That’s really how you create lasting change. If you go to my YouTube channel, if you’re listening to this on audio, if you’re watching a video, you’re already on YouTube and I will try to link the video here if I can figure out how to do that. But I have a video on five things you need to create better habits. And that was covered by Authority Magazine. think it’s maybe it was in 2019 or something like that. So this is certainly something that I have been focused on a long time in my content and in my own personal life, trying to create better habits, new habits. As I go through that the year, I really don’t wait until January. I’ll pick something up whenever it occurs to me that I really need it in my life. So right now I’ve got several things that I’m working on. A lot of it related to work. But the one thing I kept thinking about this and I’ve thought about doing this for years and sharing this with you and it really wasn’t until this year where I was able to conceive of it in a way that I can bring it to fruition and really deliberate in a way that I think will be useful to everyone. It’s 100 % free. So I’m really excited about that because I just want to share information that will help you live a happier, healthier life. know, healers show has been around for I believe it’s going to be. eight years this coming summer. I’ll have to go back and look when I actually launched it, but my about page that I wrote way back then is I’ve never changed it because it still just holds the same meaning to me what I want to share with people, how I want to help them be healthier, share information that’s based on the latest research. You know, I’ve certainly changed my mind about several things over the years and I think it’s important to be able to do that when presented with new information. So Anyway, what this is all about, it’s a 30 day challenge, but it’s not the kind of challenge you’re thinking about the kind that you’ve tried before and you weren’t able to get through it was it’s too crazy or 75 hard, which is just an insane amount of things you have to do on a daily basis. And it really just sets people up for failure in my opinion, because in it’s well, I guess it’s named properly, right? 75 hard because it is very challenging. But this challenge is really all about creating better habits. At very beginning of the challenge, you’ll set some intentions around things you might want to change. But really, every day is going to be a short podcast, a video, and an email that you get in your inbox. And it just gives you a small habit that you’re going to try that day. And it only takes about five to 15 minutes each day. One of the things is daily movement. you get to choose whatever it is that speaks to you. what you know if it’s joyful movement you get bonus points for that maybe some kitchen dancing something but if you’re already on an exercise program it’s just going to have you you know you can make it into something that’s a little longer for you or maybe try a different thing for that 30 days but that’s one of the main components because i do believe that moving your body every day if you’re not in the habit of it brings more awareness around that and just committing to doing that you will feel so much better by the end of 30 days and if you’re already moving you are going to get to try all these little habits that I have planned out for the 30 days. And if it’s something that speaks to you, once you try the habit, hopefully I’m thinking that you’ll try to implement it every day of the challenge. But if it didn’t speak to you, if it didn’t resonate or it’s something that you already do, you’re kind of just gonna leave that behind. You’re gonna take from this what you need from it. And it’ll be, know, all of it has research links every day. So if you’re interested in spending more time on this particular habit, you can read about why it’s good for you or how long it might take to implement it, that sort of thing. So it’s really been a lot of work. And I actually, because of being a little bit sick, I haven’t recorded the rest of it at this point, but I got a little bit more to do. I’ve got the emails set up for the daily emails. And now it’s just a matter of recording the rest of the content. so that when you are on that day with the habit, I’ll be right there with you. I’ll be talking about it. I’ll be sharing about how I use it in my daily life and maybe some more of the research. So it’ll be in an audio format where if you’re in the car going to work or something, like I said, the habit itself, whatever you’re gonna try is only gonna take five to 15 minutes for that day. But if it’s one of the habits that you’re more interested in, you’ll get to hear more about it and learn more about it. And hopefully it’s, you know, learn that it’s something that you could really use in your life and that might really help you. So. That is a challenge. I would love for you to join me. Like I said, it’s a hundred percent free and you can just go sign up right now It’s a heal nourish grow comm slash habits So please please do this share it with your friends because you always are more successful creating new habits when you have friends involved You can talk about the different ones together. What’s what’s working for you? What’s not? It’s just it’s just more fun when you have more people involved. So And you know, I always greatly appreciate it if you share the podcast or share my content with others, because that’s the easiest way that people find me. It is getting so much more challenging on the internet these days with AI to find people that resonate with you to find real people that are doing work in the space and in any space, really. It’ll be interesting to see really how that evolves over the next several years for sure. But If you would share it, I’d be very grateful. HealNursePro.com slash habits. That’s how you sign up. The second thing I want to share with you, that’s another resource for the new year. It is a summit that I’ve been involved with in the past and they reached out to me and asked if I could share about it again. And I said, of course, because it’s something I really believe in. They always have great speakers. It’s another thing that’s 100 percent free. And that is the Quit Sugar Summit. And it’s not it’s interesting because even if you don’t want to totally remove sugar from your life or If you already have a healthy relationship with sugar, doesn’t bother you. You don’t have diabetes, those sorts of things. The speakers are all just really excellent speakers in this health space. And I think whether you really want to quit sugar or not, you will still get some great knowledge from that and maybe get some tips and tricks and different things that you can, like I said, implement into the new year and just learn about. And so that is heelnourishgrow.com slash quit sugar summit. So super easy to sign up for that free as well. It starts, I believe, January 12th. So you’ve got a little bit of time, but you go ahead and sign up for it now they’ll send you some reminders about when it’s going to start because you do need to watch it on the days that they send it out because that’s how they make the summit for free basically. So that content will be available on the day that it is registered to run and then after that unfortunately you won’t have access unless you choose to pay for it but it’s a really great way to get some free content watch the ones you can or watch just the ones that you’re interested in, you’ll get the names of them beforehand. So that’s another great resource for the new year. And then the last thing that I’ll talk about today, I’m going to keep this relatively short because I’m sure that my voice is a little bit annoying with the hoarseness that I still have left from my little cold or whatever it was. is that this is another resource that I’ve been wanting to create for a long time. And it really came to me when I was doing my contest prep for the bodybuilding shows and doing some serious dieting, which I still need to share all of that with you, kind of some lessons learned and some thoughts around that, because doing this at 52 and still being able to lose weight aggressively was really interesting. And I think it just goes to show you. that it’s definitely possible. There just might be some things in your head that you have to get past a little bit or habits that you might need to change slightly to make that still available to you and your body. So if that happens to be a goal for you in the new year to lose weight or work on your relationship with food, have some content coming around that, but. The one that I really want to create and I think is useful for anybody, no matter what your goal is, because it’s also useful if your goal is to build muscle or to gain weight, and that is macros. The power of macros. I have been tracking macros way back since when Spark people was still around. It has gone out of business a long time ago, but that was one of the first trackers before my fitness pal, before any of that. When I was back when I was a runner, I would often track my macros or any time that I needed to lose a couple pounds. That’s what I rely on. And macros gives you so much more flexibility than a diet plan than a strict, you know, whether it’s a vegetarian diet or keto diet or Whole30 diet, it gives you so much more flexibility than any of those options, because you simply learn how to track your food and what it’s about. so that plan for that one is to kind of do a macros 101 class for you and just share know, first of all, what are if you’re, I mean, at this point, I feel like everybody has heard this term, but I quite often realize that I’m a very, I’m in a very specific space where I read, listen to, consume this kind of content all the time. And it’s basically my work life, right? So it’s something that I’m very educated on. And so I kind of forget sometimes that there are people that don’t know some of these terms. And I’d be curious, comment below. If when I said macros, you knew immediately. what it was and if you’re like, what the heck is this? Because I just be curious. I think most people do know at this point. But anyway, macros are fat, carbohydrates and protein. Alcohol is kind of considered a fourth macro in a way, and I will definitely talk about that in the macros 101 class. But I wanted to save that for when my voice is actually fully back and I’m not still stuffy so that it’s because it’s to be a long term, I think great piece of evergreen content and I want it to sound. little bit better than I’m sounding right now if that’s possible. So that’s coming as well. So that’s kind of what’s been going on over here and the reason that I have been a little delayed. I do have an interview with a guest that is already prepped that will be coming up and it’s a really interesting guest that went through a lot of personal challenges and just kind of sharing some of her insights and ways that she was able to overcome those things and some projects that she is personally working on to create some experiences for people that I think could be really interesting to a lot of my audience. And that is, you know, groups of women, and they kind of go out into nature into the wild and just learn skills around being outside and reconnecting with the outdoors. And so I’m really excited to share about that coming up too. But anyway, that is all I wanted to say for today. So again, if you could go over and sign up for the challenge. It’s heelnourishgrow.com slash habits. And I hesitated to even call it a challenge because yeah, don’t I don’t honestly don’t think it will be too challenging. And that is the beauty of approaching habits in this way. And when you go, if you go listen to the thing, the five things you need to create healthy habits, it’s really about starting small and building on that. And you know, doing things like habit stacking, you everybody, you brush your teeth every morning and every night, right? You always do that. So if you need to do anything, like take a new supplement or something, you know, putting it right next to your toothpaste, that’s a great way to do that. So habit stacking is also something that we’ll chat about in the challenge, but I really think it’s like a reset and it’s a way to try new things. So that’s how I’m looking at it. That’s how it’ll be approaching it with you. And again, I you will sign up for that and join me share it with your friends and family so they can join you too and we’ll all get healthier in 2026. Like I said, I’ve definitely got some new goals and I’m working on some things for myself and I’m going to be doing each of these habits each of the days that they go out as well because I want to learn from it and I want to see you know which ones resonated with me or is there anything that I’m doing in my daily life that I should have shared that could have been a better habit to share with you to try. So yeah, so we’ll all be doing it together and I’m really excited about like I said I thought about doing this a whole bunch in the past and I just haven’t found a way to deliver it and really Map it out the way that I have this time So I would love to have you along for the ride But anyway until next time which will hopefully be much sooner here now that I am well and back to recording and the other I think I mentioned with the challenge is there will be The audio component, it’ll be like a special podcast episodes for a series for a while. And so if you’re catching this later, and you missed signing up for the challenge, once it’s out January 1, you can actually start it at any time. And the beauty is, I think you should be able to start it over as well. So if you really enjoyed it, you get off track for a little while you want to come back to it. can always just start over the 30 days kind of like an evergreen thing so no matter when you hear this in the future this will be available to you. So that’s all for now and I hope you have happy happy holidays however you’re celebrating enjoy your time with friends and family and then let’s all get ready for 2026 and creating some new awesome habits so see you next

Several travel agencies have reported a significant hike in winter vacation tour bookings after schools and universities across China recently announced their winter holiday schedules. Industry insiders said domestic destinations with milder climates and overseas scenic spots are in intense competition to attract winter holiday travelers.多家旅行社表示，随着全国中小学和高校陆续公布寒假安排，冬季度假游预订量显著攀升。业内人士称，气候温和的国内目的地与海外景点正展开激烈竞争，争夺寒假游客资源。Since late November, primary and high schools nationwide, as well as universities, have been releasing their winter holiday plans, with vacation lengths ranging from 25 days to over 40 days.自11月下旬以来，全国中小学及高校陆续公布寒假安排，假期时长从25天到40多天不等。In Shanghai, for instance, primary and high school students will have 25 days off from Feb 2 to 27. In contrast, winter holiday breaks last 43 days in Heilongjiang province in Northeast China, starting in mid-January, as the region experiences earlier and more severe cold weather.例如，上海的小学生和中学生将从2月2日至27日享受25天的假期。相比之下，中国东北的黑龙江省因寒冷天气来得更早且更为严酷，其寒假从1月中旬开始，长达43天。As students' winter vacations will overlap with the Spring Festival holiday—a traditional Chinese period for family reunions falling in mid-February next year—many families are choosing to travel during the first half of their children's winter breaks to avoid travel peaks and potential price hikes for flights and hotel rooms during the Spring Festival holiday period.由于学生寒假将与春节假期重叠——这个中国传统的团圆时节将于明年二月中旬到来——许多家庭选择在孩子寒假的前半段出行，以避开春节期间的出行高峰和机票酒店可能上涨的价格。"I plan to take my son on a week-long winter tour in late January using my paid leave, although we haven't finalized the dates yet," said Wang Li, 39, who works in Beijing." We have two final choices—Hainan in South China and Kunming in Southwest China—both of which enjoy milder climates in winter."39岁的北京上班族王莉（音译）表示：“我计划在一月底用带薪休假带儿子进行为期一周的冬游，不过具体日期尚未敲定。我们有两个最终选择——中国南部的海南和西南部的昆明，这两个地方冬季气候都比较温和。”Wang said she previously sent her son to winter holiday tutoring classes, such as ice hockey and tennis, and scheduled family trips during the Spring Festival holiday. "Those plans cost much more because accommodation and flight prices skyrocketed during Spring Festival. This winter holiday, I want to move the family trip to earlier," she said.王莉（音译）表示表示，她此前曾让儿子参加寒假补习班，比如冰球和网球课程，并在春节假期安排了家庭旅行。她说：“这些计划花费更高，因为春节期间住宿和机票价格飞涨。这个寒假，我想把家庭旅行提前安排。”Wang is not alone. Travel portal Qunar said tour bookings from mid-January—when most students begin their winter school breaks—to the period before the Spring Festival holiday have seen significant growth since late November.王莉（音译）并非个例。旅游门户网站去哪儿网表示，自1月下旬（多数学生开始寒假）至春节假期前的旅游预订量，自11月下旬以来呈现显著增长。Qunar also reported a notable increase in flight ticket bookings for children during that period. Bookings for infants and children aged up to 12 rose by 60.7 percent year-on-year. Domestically, warmer destinations including Zhuhai in Guangdong province, Sanya in Hainan, and Xishuangbanna in Yunnan province have all seen a surge in tourism bookings, the platform said.去哪儿旅游网数据显示，同期儿童机票预订量显著增长，0至12岁婴幼儿及儿童机票预订量同比增长60.7%。该平台指出，国内旅游方面，广东珠海、海南三亚、云南西双版纳等温暖目的地均迎来旅游预订高峰。Overseas destinations such as Thailand and Russia are also popular choices for winter holiday travelers. According to Qunar, Thailand is currently the top overseas destination on its platform, with flight ticket bookings from the Chinese mainland to the country increasing 21 percent from mid-January to the eve of the Spring Festival holiday.泰国和俄罗斯等海外目的地也是冬季度假游客的热门选择。据去哪儿旅游网数据显示，泰国目前在其平台上位居海外目的地榜首，1月中旬至春节假期前夕，中国大陆至泰国的机票预订量同比增长21%。Qi Chunguang, vice-president of travel portal Tuniu, noted a boom in overseas winter holiday tours.途牛旅游网副总裁齐春光指出，海外冬季度假游呈现爆发式增长。"Some long-distance tour products to Australia and New Zealand for the winter holiday have already sold out," Qi said. "Tours to Europe, Dubai and Egypt will see a booking rush this month." He added that tour products to overseas island destinations such as the Maldives are also entering their peak reservation season.齐春光表示：“部分澳大利亚和新西兰的冬季长途旅游产品已售罄，本月欧洲、迪拜和埃及的旅游线路将迎来预订高峰。”他补充道，前往马尔代夫等海外岛屿目的地的旅游产品也正进入预订旺季。Zhou Chenjie, 42, who lives in Shanghai, said she has booked a five-day family trip to Thailand starting Feb 4. "It's my daughter's birthday wish," Zhou said. "Traveling before the Spring Festival holiday is a good deal, as flight tickets and hotel rooms are offered at discounted prices."现居上海的42岁周晨洁（音译）表示，她已预订了2月4日起为期五天的泰国家庭游，她说：“这是女儿的生日愿望。春节前出行很划算，机票和酒店都提供折扣价。”

EP 230: You Haven't Lost Your Spark If you've been moving through life on autopilot, feeling flat, numb, or disconnected from yourself this episode is for you. Not because something is “wrong” with you… but because your nervous system is done carrying what was never meant to be permanent. Burnout isn't a personality flaw. Losing your spark isn't a failure. And this season isn't here to punish you it's here to wake you up. In this episode of Unf*ck Your Relationships, I break down why so many women feel like they've lost their spark and why trying to “get back to the old you” is actually keeping you stuck. This isn't about romanticising your life or forcing gratitude when you're depleted. This is mindset + embodiment + shadow work the holy trinity. I walk you through the five shifts that actually bring your spark back every time by restoring self-trust, reclaiming your energy, and reconnecting you to your aliveness. Here's a few things I unpack in this episode: Why Autopilot Is a Nervous System Response Burnout vs Self-Abandonment Why Productivity Is Killing Your Aliveness Pleasure, Play & Erotic Energy (Without Making It Sexual) You don't need to find your spark. You need to stop abandoning yourself. And this episode shows you exactly how. WORK WITH MICHELLE: Join THE CONNECTED WOMAN, a course for the woman who wants to go from anxious & self-abandoning in relationships to secure, confident and unf*ckwithable: https://michellepanning.com/the-connected-womanSign up for THE EXPERIENCE, an exclusive 12-month mentorship experience where you go all in on YOU (aka, you get direct access to me as a mentor, access to every offer I run over your year, and MORE): https://michellepanning.com/the-experience Sign up for THE AWAKENING RETREATS now before they sell out.

What if your joy, abundance, and magnetism didn't come from striving but from receptivity?In this episode of The Vibrant Flow Podcast, Johanna speaks directly to the faith-based feminine leader who knows she has outgrown her old self and is ready to experience more turn-on, peace, romance, and abundance in her everyday life.This episode is a gentle yet powerful invitation to soften out of pressure, perfectionism, and self-betrayal, and return to a way of living rooted in self-trust, divine safety, and joyful anticipation.You'll explore why breaking promises to yourself quietly kills the romance of life, how feminine receptivity restores your spark, and why the paradox of abundance is this: when you don't need it, it flows to you.Johanna also weaves faith, embodiment, and neuroscience together, showing how positive anticipation literally changes your brain chemistry, boosts wellbeing, and creates a magnetic presence, without hustle or forcing.This is not about denying desire.It's about anchoring your worth, safety, and joy in God, so you're free to receive everything else as a gift.In this episode, we explore:• Why breaking promises to yourself drains joy, romance, and vitality• How to rebuild self-trust as the foundation for abundance• What feminine receptivity actually looks like in daily life• The paradox of abundance: why what you don't need flows to you• How to release neediness without denying desire• Why anticipation is one of the most powerful emotional states for wellbeing• What happens in the brain during positive anticipation• How to cultivate a “date mindset” with life• Feminine leadership rooted in faith, peace, and conviction• How to feel turned on by life again—without pressureThis episode is for you if:You're a faith-led woman craving more joy, beauty, and abundanceYou desire feminine flow without losing grounded leadershipYou've outgrown your old identity but feel called to moreYou want spirituality that feels embodied, peaceful, and aliveYou're ready to stop shrinking and start receiving✨ Invitation: If you're ready for deeper personal transformation—grounded, faith-based feminine coaching that helps you turn dense emotions into freedom, clarity, and embodied leadership—you're invited to book a free consultation call.

Expecting a baby is stressful under the best of circumstances, but financial uncertainty can make it even harder. Ali Groves, Associate Professor at Drexel Dornsife School of Public Health and Research Chair of the mothers and Infants Cash Coalition, has spent years studying how cash transfers can improve reproductive and maternal health outcomes. Thomas McCullough, assistant archivist of the Moravian Church Northern Province, traced the deep historical roots behind one of Pennsylvania’s most recognizable holiday symbols: the Moravian star. McCullough explained that the Moravian Church dates back to 1457 and originated in what is now the Czech Republic, later spreading across Europe and eventually to Pennsylvania in 1740.Support WITF: https://www.witf.org/support/give-now/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Story Transcript:No: Vigeland Park lå stille under et tykt teppe av snø, som glitret i lyset fra de subtile julelysene som var hengt opp rundt trærne.En: Vigeland Park lay silent under a thick blanket of snow, which glittered in the light from the subtle Christmas lights that were hung around the trees.No: Eirik ruslet langs stiene, følelsen av ensomhet hang tungt i brystet hans, til tross for omgivelsenes skjønnhet.En: Eirik strolled along the paths, the feeling of loneliness heavy in his chest, despite the beauty of the surroundings.No: I en annen del av parken sto Synnøve med et kart i hånden, og så seg rundt med et forvirret blikk.En: In another part of the park, Synnøve stood with a map in her hand, looking around with a confused expression.No: Hun hadde dratt fra den lille hjembyen sin for å finne en spesiell gave til søsteren sin, men Oslo virket så overveldende.En: She had left her small hometown to find a special gift for her sister, but Oslo seemed so overwhelming.No: Alt hun ønsket var noe som kunne uttrykke alle de varme følelsene hun hadde for søsteren.En: All she wanted was something that could express all the warm feelings she had for her sister.No: Eirik hadde lagt merke til henne.En: Eirik had noticed her.No: Hun virket fortapt, både fysisk og kanskje på andre måter også.En: She seemed lost, both physically and perhaps in other ways too.No: Han tok et dypt pust, bestemte seg for å ta en sjanse, og gikk bort til henne.En: He took a deep breath, decided to take a chance, and walked over to her.No: "Trenger du hjelp med å finne frem?En: "Do you need help finding your way?"No: " spurte han vennlig.En: he asked kindly.No: Synnøve så opp, litt skeptisk, men noe ved Eiriks smil var beroligende.En: Synnøve looked up, a bit skeptical, but something about Eirik's smile was reassuring.No: Hun nikket nølende.En: She nodded hesitantly.No: "Jeg har aldri vært her før," tilsto hun.En: "I've never been here before," she admitted.No: Eirik smilte bredt.En: Eirik grinned broadly.No: "Da må jeg vise deg rundt!En: "Then I have to show you around!No: Jeg kjenner til noen få steder som kanskje kan gi deg ideer til en gave.En: I know a few places that might give you ideas for a gift."No: "De begynte å gå sammen, og snøen knirket under skoene deres.En: They began to walk together, the snow crunching beneath their shoes.No: Synnøve snakket om hvor mye hun savnet hjem, mens Eirik delte sine små hemmeligheter om byen.En: Synnøve talked about how much she missed home, while Eirik shared his little secrets about the city.No: De lo og snakket om alt og ingenting, inntil de snublet over en artig installasjon i parken.En: They laughed and talked about everything and nothing until they stumbled upon an amusing installation in the park.No: "Dette er laget av en venn av meg!En: "This was made by a friend of mine!"No: " sa Eirik overrasket.En: said Eirik surprised.No: "Hun heter Inga.En: "Her name is Inga.No: Jeg visste ikke at hun hadde fått plass her.En: I didn't know she had got a place here."No: "Synnøve ble fascinert av de utsmykkede figurene i is og stål.En: Synnøve was fascinated by the ornate figures in ice and steel.No: De så nesten magiske ut, som om de lurte på om de skulle gå ned fra sokkelen og danse i snøen.En: They looked almost magical, as if they were wondering whether to step down from the pedestal and dance in the snow.No: "Det er perfekt," mumlet Synnøve.En: "It's perfect," Synnøve murmured.No: "Det minner meg om historiene søsteren min pleide å fortelle meg.En: "It reminds me of the stories my sister used to tell me."No: "Eirik så på henne, glad for at hun hadde funnet det hun lette etter.En: Eirik looked at her, glad she had found what she was searching for.No: "Skal vi bytte telefonnumre?En: "Should we exchange phone numbers?"No: " spurte han optimistisk.En: he asked optimistically.No: "Kanskje vi kan treffes igjen, kanskje på julaften?En: "Maybe we can meet up again, perhaps on Christmas Eve?"No: "Synnøve nikket, hennes tidligere reservasjon bleknet bort.En: Synnøve nodded, her earlier reservation fading away.No: Uventet hadde hun funnet noe verdifullt i Oslo.En: Unexpectedly, she had found something valuable in Oslo.No: Ikke bare en gave, men også en venn som gjorde byen litt mindre fremmed.En: Not just a gift, but also a friend who made the city a little less foreign.No: "Det høres hyggelig ut," svarte hun.En: "That sounds nice," she replied.No: Da de skiltes, følte Eirik en ny varme i hjertet.En: As they parted, Eirik felt a new warmth in his heart.No: Han hadde funnet noe han ikke visste at han hadde mistet: en følelse av tilhørighet.En: He had found something he didn't know he had lost: a sense of belonging.No: Og Synnøve, med sitt nyvunne mot, så kortet med Eiriks nummer på som et symbol på en ny start.En: And Synnøve, with her newfound courage, saw the card with Eirik's number as a symbol of a new beginning.No: Sammen, selv om de fortsatt var fremmede på mange måter, feiret de et lite mirakel i vinternatten.En: Together, even though they were still strangers in many ways, they celebrated a small miracle in the winter night.

We explore how removing immigration friction and backing immigrant founders at day zero can produce outsized innovation, through the lens of a VC platform and a biotech founder reprogramming tumors with mRNA and AI. The conversation blends policy, venture economics, and a bold oncology thesis with practical advice and personal stories.• immigrant advantage as resilience, clarity, and risk appetite• Unshackled's Day Zero model and economics• technical visionaries and system disruptors archetypes• turning tumors into immune allies with mRNA and AI• off the shelf approach across solid tumors• storytelling skills for technical CEOs• curated community as capital and catalyst• immigration policy takes on points systems and talent pipelines• why fear based rules hurt innovation• reflections on curiosity, kindness, and gritWhat happens when you bet on a founder before there's a product, revenue, or even a company? We bring together Manan Mehta, founding partner at Unshackled Ventures, and Rustam Esanov, co-founder and CEO of Reprogram Biosciences, to unpack how day‑zero investing meets deep tech ambition—and how that mix can upend cancer therapy.Manan opens the curtain on Unshackled's model: underwrite immigrant founders when capital and confidence are scarcest, handle immigration legal end‑to‑end, and curate a community that knows when to introduce the next believer. He breaks down their two founder archetypes—technical visionaries and system disruptors—plus the quotients that matter: intelligence, adversity, emotional, and social. We dig into why early belief earns better economics, how consensus‑driven VC misses mispriced opportunities, and what it takes to move a company from a first experiment to a milestone investors can't ignore.Rustam shares the personal spark behind his mission and the science powering it. Using AI‑guided design and mRNA, his team aims to reprogram tumor cells into immune‑like allies, opening the “fortress” from the inside so the body can attack solid tumors. He explains why an off‑the‑shelf approach beats personalization for scale, how early out‑of‑pocket experiments de‑risked the thesis, and the single most practical lesson he learned transitioning from bench science to CEO: tell a story so clear a teenager can understand it. Manan Mehta: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mananm/Manan Mehta is the Founding Partner of Unshackled Ventures, the only inception-stage (pre-revenue, pre-product, pre-incorporation) venture fund focused entirely on backing immigrant-founded startups.  For over 11 years, Manan has led the firm, which provides capital, network access, and full immigration support, having sponsored over 300 immigration filings for founders, often before they incorporate their businesses. Rustam Esanov:  https://www.linkedin.com/in/rustamesanov/Rustam Esanov is the CEO and Co-founder of Reprogram Biosciences, a deep-tech company developing mRNA reprogramming therapeutics.  His mission is to turn tumors into immune-like allies to treat solid cancers by leveraging a proprietary AI platform to build a precision cell-reprogramming engine to solve one of the most complex challenges in medicine.Website: https://www.position2.com/podcast/Rajiv Parikh: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rajivparikh/Sandeep Parikh: https://www.instagram.com/sandeepparikh/Email us with any feedback for the show: sparkofages.podcast@position2.com

Thank you to our sponsors, Mantle!On this episode of Bits + Bips, hosts Ram Ahluwalia, Austin Campbell, and Chris Perkins are joined by Elisabeth Kirby, Head of Market Structure at Tradeweb, for a wide-ranging conversation about the future of crypto markets — and who will control them. They unpack why US market structure legislation stalled, how the SEC's enforcement-first approach shaped the last cycle, and what it signals that JPMorgan, BlackRock, and others are moving forward with tokenization.  The group debates whether Ethereum's institutional edge is durable, whether Canton can scale beyond early adopters, and why Solana's “decentralized Nasdaq” vision still faces hard questions. The episode closes with a sober look at macro conditions, risk appetite, and why crypto may be stuck waiting, even as the long-term institutional thesis quietly strengthens.
