High performers often chase peace but feel unsafe when they slow down. In this episode, Julie Holly reveals how early stories of worth and success shape our drive—and how recalibration helps you rewrite them so rest finally feels safe again.If you've ever tried to rest but felt restless instead—this episode is for you.In The Recalibration, Julie Holly unpacks the psychology and identity behind high performance, revealing how our earliest stories quietly shape the pace we keep as adults. From the family messages of “Be the best” and “Don't fail,” to the cultural scripts that say worth equals output, this episode exposes the deeper narratives driving exhaustion.You'll learn how story work bridges behavior and belief—and why adding more habits or hacks won't heal the root cause of burnout or performance pressure. Drawing on psychological insight and nervous system science, Julie explains how these unconscious stories become embodied patterns: you produce to stay safe, prove to stay seen, and protect to stay in control.Through Identity-Level Recalibration (ILR)—the psychology-backed, faith-rooted pathway that realigns identity at the root—you'll discover how to retrain your body to experience stillness as safety. Because when your nervous system believes you're safe to rest, peace stops feeling like loss and starts feeling like trust.This episode invites you to grieve your old story, thank it for keeping you safe, and finally meet the truer version of you beneath it all.The Recalibration isn't therapy or mindset work—it's the smallest internal shift that changes everything. It's not about doing less; it's about leading from who you truly are.Today's Micro Recalibration:“What story am I still performing—and is it still true?” Let this question soften the part of you that's still performing for safety.

EYE on NPI - Qualcomm &amp; Arduino UNO Q Microcontroller Board

Dobré ráno | Denný podcast denníka SME

This week's EYE ON NPI is as mysterious and powerful as the extra-dimensional being from Star Trek (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Q_(Star_Trek)) - it's the new Arduino UNO Q (https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/a/arduino/uno-q-microcontroller-board) microcontroller board, released as part of the Qualcomm/Arduino acquisition announcement (https://www.qualcomm.com/news/releases/2025/10/qualcomm-to-acquire-arduino-accelerating-developers--access-to-i). This Uno-shaped board is packed with both an STM32 microcontroller and a Qualcomm Dragonwing microprocessor so you get the best-of-both-worlds: 3.3V/5V logic compatibility with timers and ADCs, plus a full Debian install and AI support for running local vision models. We last checked in on Arduino we were reviewing their new announcements based on a partnership with Renesas: the Arduino Nano R4 SoC (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QLAI41ZfCfw) which is a miniaturized version of the UNO R4 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uw0EU8urz5M). These boards feature an Arm microcontroller, with lots of fun on-board accessories like an LED grid, Qwiic connector, and WiFi/Bluetooth module. These boards represented a bump in capabilities over the classic UNO R3 (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/arduino/A000073/3476357) but are still under-powered compared to the 'Portenta' line (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/arduino/ABX00045/15294134). So, when we see the Arduino UNO Q (https://www.digikey.com/short/qc9d09fm) is a merging of three separate 'strands' of Arduino development history. One, it's shaped and has hardware-compatibility with the classic UNO which has been their mainstay for decades. Two, it has the powerful microcontroller type that the Pro line features. And three, it revives some of the Linux-based boards that Arduino had previously released like the Yun (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/arduino/A000008/4486331), Tian (https://docs.arduino.cc/retired/boards/arduino-tian/) and Tre (https://docs.arduino.cc/retired/boards/arduino-tre). What sets the Q apart is that this time instead of being just a chip-supplier partnership, Arduino has been acquired as a subsidiary of Qualcomm (https://www.qualcomm.com/news/releases/2025/10/qualcomm-to-acquire-arduino-accelerating-developers--access-to-i) which means that there's going to be first-class engineering support for the onboard Dragonwing processor. Speaking of, let's take a look at the hardware included in the new Q! There's two chipsets on each board: the big processor is a Qualcomm Dragonwing™ QRB2210 (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/qualcomm/QRB-2210-0-NSP752-TR-00-0/27904331) - 64-bit System-on-Chip with 4 × Arm Cortex-A53 running at 2.0 GHz and Adreno 702 GPU running at 845 MHz for 3D graphics. This chip runs mainline Debian OS with upstream support so you can configure a kernel and distribution image without needing patches. Arduino and Qualcomm distribute their own ready to go image too (https://docs.arduino.cc/tutorials/uno-q/update-image/). This chip has modern A/V support with both CSI camera and DSI MIPI display capability to match. Those high speed connects are available on the dual 60-pin bottom connects - while there isn't a sub-connect board right now, it's likely that Arduino will develop one soon. Meanwhile, you can use their documentation (https://docs.arduino.cc/hardware/uno-q/) such as STEP and Gerber files if you want to start adding a direct-plug integration into your hardware now. The second chipset is a STM32U585 Arm Cortex-M33 with 2 MB Flash, 786 kB SRAM and running at 160 MHz - it runs the Arduino Core via Zephyr OS and from the block diagram, looks like it communicates with the main core via UART and SPI. The STM is what handles GPIO, PWM, ADC, DAC, timers, etc since it is 3.3V logic and has some 5V logic-level compatibility. The main headers on the Arduino - and some of the bottom extra headers - expose the STM logic so you can connect standard sensors, OLEDs, relays etc. While there are some GPIO from the Dragonwing also available, they're 1.8V logic and are already allocated in the Linux Device tree. The Arduino UNO Q (https://www.digikey.com/short/qc9d09fm) is available for pre-order right now from DigiKey for a door-busting $44! We've already put in our order, and we'll do a project to check it out as soon as it arrives. After you get your pre-order in, check out some of the projects that have already been published to get a sense of the Q's capabilities like this MAME emulation arcade cabinet (https://projecthub.arduino.cc/jcarolinares/arduino-uno-q-arcade-cabinet-machine-39dd38) or face-recognition car (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EGDxAXpH_Ag). You can start dreaming of what you'll be able to do with a full computer + microcontroller board that fits where your old UNO R3 would fit, while you wait for the shipping notification.

EYE ON NPI - Microchip Technology MCP41U83 (Single) and MCP42U83 (Dual) Potentiometers

The Smart Passive Income Online Business and Blogging Podcast

This week's EYE ON NPI takes a look at a new product with a lot of potential: it's the Microchip Technology MCP41U83 (Single) and MCP42U83 (Dual) Digital Potentiometer series. This family of solid-state potentiometers is ready to replace your mechanical knobs and trimmers: no through hole soldering, and no mechanical failures due to oil, dirt or vibration. With 10-bit resolution, you'll get excellent repeatability and precision for tweaking analog voltages. And, the high 100MHz+ bandwidth means you can use it for filters, audio, sensors, without worry that about losing your signal shape. Potentiometers are trusty mechanical-to-electrical components, used in almost every design to convert mechanical motion - both linear and rotational - to an electronic signal that can easily be measured. They're inexpensive, available in thousands of configurations (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/category/potentiometers-variable-resistors/5): linear or logarithmic, panel mount or SMT, single or dual, linear or rotational, in values from 1 ohm up to 1 Meg. They all pretty much work the same way, with a strip of conductive material such that from end-to-end the resistance is the total 'range' of the pot, and a wiper that literally wipes across from one end to another. Pots can be easily configured as voltage dividers by putting a signal across the two ends and then 'tapping' in to the wiper. Or, they can be rheostats (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potentiometer#Rheostat) where only one end and the wiper are used to make a variable resistor value. We love pots and trimmers and use them all the time, but they have serious down-sides. Over time, the wipers eventually scrape through the conductive material creating 'scratchy' pots that jump around in value. Or, oil and dust get in and gunk up the internals (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AUMxFIH5BN8). They can also drift over time or with humidity so that the center isn't really centered anymore. Also, if your product gets moved around, the knob can get bumped or if its a trimmer, it can get shifted from the vibration (https://forum.digikey.com/t/potentiometer-locking-adhesive-goop/50757) - for that reason if you open up a product with trimmers often times they are dabbed with wax or glue to keep them 'set' (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/mg-chemicals/4228A-55ML/17884735). Thus the genius of digital pots! The Microchip Technology MCP41U83 (https://www.digikey.com/short/wt3zwnq5) and MCP42U83 series chips can replace the mechanical versions while providing I2C or SPI interface for configuration. Unlike many digital pot chips we've used in the past, the MCP41U83 (https://www.digikey.com/short/wt3zwnq5) has 10-bits of resolution for 1024 positions - most top-out at 7-bits or 128 positions! That means you'll actually get better resolution and repeatability than a mechanical pot. Also, many digipots lose their value when power cycled, but the MCP41U83 (https://www.digikey.com/short/wt3zwnq5) comes with internal non-volatile memory so once you've settled on a value you can save it semi-permanently. Note that the NVRAM is rated for 1000 cycle writes so just be aware you can't write to it continuously. The MCP41U83 (https://www.digikey.com/short/wt3zwnq5) comes with both I2C and SPI interfaces. For I2C there are two address pins so you can select up to 4 addresses. For SPI, the pots can be 'daisy-chained' together for up to 128 without needing separate CS lines for each one. For power/logic you can use 2.7~5.5V. If you happen to want to use this for a split supply, you can but the split voltages will still need to be no more than -2.75 and +2.75V. A nice specification we noted in the datasheet is the high bandwidth, with tens-of-MHz even at 100Kohm - this makes it a fine substitute for trimmers in analog settings where signal is passing through the pot such as filters or op-amp circuits. For times when you have stereo signals you want to manage at the same time, there's also the MCP42U83 (https://www.digikey.com/short/hcqj8nn2) which has dual separated pots inside. Both configurations come in both QFN and TSSOP packages, for easy pick-and-placing. We really like the ease and simplicity of these digital potentiometers with good documentation and just enough features to solve common engineering requirements. Whether you need the signal channel MCP41U83 (https://www.digikey.com/short/wt3zwnq5) or dual MCP42U83 (https://www.digikey.com/short/hcqj8nn2), 5K or 100K, QFN or TSSOP. DigiKey has the full series in stock (https://www.digikey.com/short/wz13wpp5) right now for immediate shipment! Order today and you can start integrating these components into your next design by tomorrow afternoon.

I'm diving into this topic with Tristan de Montebello, co-founder of Ultraspeaking and a finalist in the World Championship of Public Speaking. Listen in on this episode because Tristan didn't start out as a "natural." Like many elite communicators, he has identified the bad habits holding him back and replaced them with the powerful skills that make speaking feel effortless. You'll hear Tristan and me run through a series of exercises meant to train and transform your on-the-spot thinking. Tune it to uncover blind spots and begin expressing yourself with ease!
