Politics in 2025: GNU stability tested as leadership battles loom by Radio Islam
After an 18-year rise through corporate HR—from recruiter to group president across Canada and the U.S.—Dom walked away from a “safe” executive career to build something on his own terms. In this conversation, we unpack why large organizations quietly trade momentum for bureaucracy, how technology and automation empower lean founders, and why “stability” often comes at the cost of creativity, speed, and meaning.We explore intrapreneurship vs. entrepreneurship, the hidden traps of bloated systems, and how founders can use data, automation, and open APIs to move faster without burning capital. The throughline isn't rebellion—it's agency. Building work that's fun, aligned, and alive again.No anti-corporate rant. Just lived experience, hard trade-offs, and a clear-eyed look at what it really takes to step off the stable path—and thrive.TL;DR* Stability is conditional: Corporate safety disappears the moment priorities shift.* Intrapreneur vs. founder: Big-company success doesn't equal personal leverage.* Tech as leverage: Automation and BI (not hype AI) unlock speed for lean teams.* Systems can trap you: CRMs and ERPs either enable growth—or become prisons.* Innovation dies slowly: Bureaucracy rewards optics over outcomes.* Work-life blend > balance: Fun, purpose-driven work creates sustainability.* Momentum matters: Small teams with clarity outperform slow giants.Memorable lines* “Stability often costs more than risk—you just don't see the bill right away.”* “Big systems don't fail fast. They fail quietly.”* “AI isn't magic—it's leverage if you know what problem you're solving.”* “Careers don't collapse overnight; they stall one approval layer at a time.”* “Fun isn't a perk—it's fuel.”GuestDominic Levesque — HR executive turned founder; CEO of NextWave; author and advisor on leadership, technology, and organizational transformation.

Day 5: Nurture at the Root — Safety, Stability, and the First Chakra What if growth didn't require more effort—but more safety? In this Day 5 episode, we explore how true transformation depends on nurture at the most foundational level: the body. We dive into the first chakra as the energetic and neurological root of belonging, regulation, and sustainable change. You'll learn how the arc of growth bends downward before it rises, why the nervous system must feel safe before transformation can last, and how nurture is not a luxury—but a biological requirement for integration. This episode invites you to slow down, settle in, and discover how grounding practices, embodied care, and root-level safety create the conditions for real, lasting evolution. Because nothing meaningful grows without roots. ALL ABOUT THIS WEEK'S SERIES This week on The Daily Meditation Podcast, we're beginning a special 7-day meditation series designed to help you gently release emotional buildup and reconnect with a sense of calm, clarity, and inner balance. So many of us move through our days carrying emotions we never had time to process — lingering stress, emotional fatigue, or subtle tension that quietly accumulates. This series offers a supportive pause, giving your nervous system space to settle and your emotional world room to reset. Each day, you'll be guided through a short meditation with a specific emotional focus, following a gentle daily arc that builds naturally across the week. We'll move from releasing emotional residue, to resting and grounding the nervous system, to creating emotional boundaries, self-soothing, restoring balance, and finally embodying calm presence. You don't need to prepare, analyze, or do anything extra. Simply listening each day is enough. Each meditation stands on its own, while also supporting a deeper sense of emotional ease as the week unfolds. Whether you listen to one episode or join us for the full 7-day journey, this series is an invitation to slow down, soften, and reconnect with yourself. This is day 5 of a 7-day meditation series, "Emotional Reset: Your 7-Day Plan," episodes 3430-3436. YOUR WEEKLY CHALLENGE: "The Gentle Reset Challenge" Pause once daily. Hand on heart. Name the emotion. No fixing. THIS WEEK'S MEDITATION JOURNEY Day 1: Release Emotional Residue Visualization Day 2: Affirmation: "I allow my emotions to move through me with ease and compassion."

A new audit from the Secretary of State found that the implementation of Measure 110, the drug discrimination ballot initiative, faced a number of challenges with unclear results. The audit notes that despite the roughly $800 million dedicated to programs aimed at helping in-recovery and substance-use treatment, the outcomes — including the number of people served — are unclear. Beyond that, the audit also says frequent revisions “undermined confidence in the program.” Secretary of State Tobias Read joins us to share more on the audit and M110.
As we round out 2025, leaders are facing a series of "this-or-that" choices: Control vs. Empowerment, Stability vs. Agility, Automation vs. Humanity. Tammy J. Bond argues that the real superpower for 2026 isn't choosing one—it's holding the space for "Both-And." This episode explores why managers are "drowning" in complexity and how the "Yes, And" framework—Tammy's personal philosophy—can transform paralyzing tensions into opportunities for growth. Learn how to stop "reloading the dishwasher" for your team and start building a culture of trusted productivity. The Leadership Tensions of 2025 The Struggle is Real: The Center for Creative Leadership identifies the top tensions as juggling people vs. results and leading change vs. managing complexity. The Micromanagement Trap: With managers overseeing nearly 3x as many people as they did a few years ago, the default response to stress is often to "tighten the screws." The Cost of Control: Global engagement has slipped to 21%. When you seek more approval and create less autonomy, you create a "why bother?" culture that leads to quiet quitting. Three Non-Negotiable Conversations for 2026 To bridge the gap between control and empowerment, initiate these three dialogues before the new year: The Ownership Ask: "What decisions are you ready to own so I can step out of the way?" (Define the boundaries and metrics together). The Mirror Moment: "Where am I over-controlling you?" Invite honest feedback and define actions to shift that control. The AI Soul Search: "How will we use AI as a 'team member' without losing the soul of our company?" Co-create rules that keep the process human-centric. Your Final Sandbox Challenge Before 2025 ends, identify one thing you currently control that you can release to your team. If you can't find one thing, ask yourself: Is this about risk, or is it my ego? Identifying your "rate-limiting step" is the first move toward becoming a "Both-And" leader. Remember, empowerment doesn't need to be chaos. It's freedom inside a clear framework.

European fixed income has been 'normalising' over 2025. Inflation is stabilising, the European Central Bank has halted rates near neutral, spreads are tight but markets are steady. Yet political and fiscal divergences remain sharp within the European Union with Italian BTPs now regularly pricing through French OATs. The EU's rapid expansion as a AAA issuer is altering Europe's credit market structure and raising the prospect of a genuine euro safe asset. Conor Perry, economist at OMFIF's Economic and Monetary Policy Institute, is joined by Jeremy Cunningham, investment director at Capital Group, to examine these developments. They discuss OAT-BTP repricing, investor-base effects on yield sensitivity, the impact of unified EU issuance and the outlook for 2026.

Swarupa Mahambrey, Vice President of Software Engineering at The College Board, breaks down what tech debt really looks like in a mission critical environment, and how an engineering mindset can prevent it from quietly choking delivery. She shares a practical operating model for paying down debt without stopping the roadmap, and the cultural habits that make it stick.You will hear how College Board carved out durable space for engineering excellence, how they use testing and automation to protect reliability at scale, and how to make the trade offs between features, simplicity, and user experience without slowing the team to a crawl.Key Takeaways• Tech debt behaves like financial debt, delay the payment and the interest compounds until even simple changes become painful• A permanent allocation of capacity can work, dedicating 20 percent of every sprint to tech debt can reduce support load and improve delivery• Shipping more features can slow you down, simplifying workflows and validating with real usage can increase velocity and reduce tickets• Resilience is not about avoiding every failure, it is about designing for graceful degradation so spikes and outages become small blips instead of crises• Automation is not “extra,” it is part of the definition of done, including unit tests as acceptance criteria and clear code coverage expectationsTimestamped Highlights• 00:00 Why tech debt is a mindset problem, not just a backlog problem• 01:00 Tech debt explained with a real example, what happens when a proof of concept becomes production• 03:45 The feature trap, how “powerful” workflows can overwhelm users and explode maintenance costs• 11:03 Engineering Tuesday, one day a week to strengthen foundations, not ship features• 14:39 Stability vs resilience, designing systems that bend instead of shatter• 20:06 Testing and automation at scale, unit tests as a requirement and code coverage guardrailsA line worth keeping“If we don't intentionally carve out space for engineering excellence, the urgent will always crowd out the important.”Practical moves you can steal• Protect a fixed slice of capacity for tech debt, make it part of the operating model, not a one time cleanup• Treat automation as acceptance criteria, no test, no merge, no release• Use pilots and targeted releases to learn early, then iterate based on metrics and real user behavior• Design for graceful degradation with retries, fallback paths, and clear failure visibilityCall to actionIf this episode helped you think differently about tech debt and engineering culture, follow The Tech Trek, leave a quick rating, and share it with one engineer who is fighting fires right now.

Consistency is not glamorous, but it's the engine that keeps a nonprofit's business model running when the calendar flips and the pressure spikes. In this conversation with Matt Glazer, Founder and CEO of Blue Sky Partners (Austin-based, national reach), we talk about building consistent engagement without burning out your team or betting the whole year on a Q4 miracle.Matt brings a practical operator's lens: simplify what repeats, template what you can, and stop trying to cram “97 things” into the final stretch. His philosophy is steady, sustainable progress that makes room for reality—staff illness, unexpected disruptions, and capacity limits—so quality doesn't collapse under urgency. As Matt puts it, “I'm a big believer in doing a little bit of work a lot of the time.”From there, the conversation gets sharply useful for fundraising and stakeholder communications. Matt challenges the sector's fixation on “unicorn donors” and reminds us that the so-called boring work—like building a sustaining donor program—creates real stability. He shares a concrete example from his early nonprofit leadership: by repeatedly communicating the value of monthly giving, his organization grew from zero sustainers to $7,000 per month, proving that small gifts, stacked with intention, can fund real infrastructure.The discussion also tackles a leadership truth many avoid: in many nonprofits, clients and customers are not the same people. Funders may be the “customer” demanding reporting and outcomes, while beneficiaries deserve asset-based language and authentic voice. To bridge those realities, Matt recommends human-centered design tools—journey maps, empathy maps, and personas—to understand how people experience your organization and where alignment between mission, funding, and community needs can become a win for everyone.Finally, Matt introduces decision trees as a way to improve donor asks and engagement pathways by learning not only what people choose—but why they didn't choose the other option. That's how your nonprofit can turn assumptions into strategy and strategy into revenue!#TheNonprofitShow #NonprofitLeadership #FundraisingStrategyFind us Live daily on YouTube!Find us Live daily on LinkedIn!Find us Live daily on X: @Nonprofit_ShowOur national co-hosts and amazing guests discuss management, money and missions of nonprofits! 12:30pm ET 11:30am CT 10:30am MT 9:30am PTSend us your ideas for Show Guests or Topics: HelpDesk@AmericanNonprofitAcademy.comVisit us on the web:The Nonprofit Show
In this deeply embodied episode of the Wildly Wealthy Woman Podcast, Jackie invites you into a powerful practice of speaking life over your future self as you prepare for 2026. This episode is a follow-up to the conversation on becoming the vessel that can hold your blessings — and goes even deeper into the real work of expansion. Not from a “perfect mindset” or highlight-reel place, but from honest, grounded, lived experience. Jackie breaks down why affirmations aren't magic or wishful thinking — they're a practice for nervous system safety, identity expansion, and capacity building. You'll hear behind-the-scenes insights from her own tapping practice, including a subconscious breakthrough that revealed why holding money can feel more vulnerable than making it. If you're calling in more money, stability, joy, love, or leadership in 2026 — this episode will help you feel safe enough to receive it. What You'll Learn in This Episode Why affirmations are a practice, not a performance How nervous system safety determines how much you can receive The difference between making money and feeling safe holding it Why expansion can trigger freeze — even after success How tapping helps you soothe the “scared part” of you A powerful subconscious metaphor that reframes your relationship with money Why consistency and accountability build capacity How to normalize the “middle” of growth Why devotion matters more than perfection How to use affirmations as anchors, not demands The Core Affirmation “I can make money, keep it, and feel safe having more.” This affirmation opens the door to a deeper conversation about identity, self-trust, and capacity — especially after receiving something big. A Memorable Insight from Tapping In a personal tapping session, Jackie's subconscious revealed money as a cute little dog — warm, loyal, playful, and safe. This symbol showed her: Money wants to be loved and protected Money stays where it feels safe The fear isn't about money — it's about trusting yourself to hold it This story may completely change how you relate to money. Affirmations to Prepare for 2026 In this episode, Jackie speaks a full set of affirmations she's using to prepare for the year ahead, including themes around: Stability and consistency Trusting the process Following through Expansion without burnout Feeling safe with more money, success, and visibility Patience during growth Staying the course when things feel slow Becoming the woman who can hold what she's calling in
Our CIO and Chief U.S. Equity Strategist Mike Wilson explains the significance of the Fed's decision to resume buying $40 billion of Treasury bills monthly. Read more insights from Morgan Stanley.----- Transcript -----Welcome to Thoughts on the Market. I'm Mike Wilson, Morgan Stanley's CIO and Chief U.S. Equity Strategist.Today on the podcast I'll be discussing the Fed's decision last week and what it means for stocks.It's Monday, December 15th at 11:30am in New York. So, let's get after it.Last week's Fed meeting provided incremental support for our positive 2026 outlook on equities. The Fed delivered on its expected hawkish rate cut but also indicated it would do more if the labor market continues to soften. More important than the rate cut was the Fed's decision to restart asset purchases. More specifically, the Fed intends to immediately begin buying $40 billion of T-Bills per month to ensure the smooth operation of financial markets. Based on our conversations with investors prior to the announcement, this amount and timing of bill buying exceeded both consensus, and my own expectations. It also confirms a key insight I have been discussing for months and highlighted in our Year Ahead Outlook. First, the Fed is not independent of markets, and market stability often plays a dominant role in Fed policy beyond the stated dual mandate of full employment and price stability.Second, given the size of the debt and deficit, the Fed has an additional responsibility to assist Treasury in funding the government, and will likely continue to work more closely with Treasury in this regard.Finally, the decision to intervene in funding markets sooner and more aggressively than expected may not be ‘Quantitative Easing' as defined by the Fed. However, it is a form of debt monetization that directly helps to reduce the crowding out from the still growing Treasury issuance, especially as Treasury issues more Bills over Bonds.At the Fed's October meeting, it indicated some concern about tightening liquidity which I have discussed on this podcast as the single biggest risk to the bull market in stocks. Evidence of this tightness can be seen in the performance of asset prices most sensitive to liquidity, including crypto currencies and profitless growth stocks.While the Fed probably isn't too concerned about the performance of these asset classes, it does care about financial stability in the bond, credit and funding markets. This is what likely prompted it to restart asset purchases sooner and in a more significant way than most expected.We view this as a form of debt monetization as I mentioned, given the Treasury's objective to issue more bills going forward. More importantly, these purchases provide additional liquidity for markets, and in combination with rate cuts, suggest the Fed is likely less worried about missing its inflation target. This is very much in line with our run it hot thesis dating back to early 2021. As a reminder, accelerating inflation is positive for asset prices as long as it doesn't force the Fed's hand to take the punch bowl away like in 2022. Ironically, the risk in the near-term is that this larger than expected asset purchase program may be insufficient if the Fed has materially underestimated the level of reserves necessary for markets to operate smoothly. This is what happened in 2019 and why the Fed created the Standing Repo Facility in the first place. However, this is more of a tool that is used on an as-needed basis. What the markets may want or need is a larger buffer if the Fed has underestimated the level of reserves required for smoothly functioning financial markets.To be clear, I don't know what that level is, but I do believe markets will tell us if the Fed has done enough with this latest provision. Liquidity-sensitive asset classes and areas of the equity market will be important to watch in this regard, particularly given how weak they traded last Friday and this morning.Bottom line, the Fed has reacted to the markets' tremors over the past few months. Should markets wobble again, we are highly confident the Fed will once again react until things calm down. Last week's FOMC meeting only increases our conviction in that case and keeps us bullish over the next 6-12 months, and our 7800 price target on the S&P 500. We would welcome a correction in the short term as a buying opportunity. Thanks for tuning in; I hope you found it informative and useful. Let us know what you think by leaving us a review.

In this episode, Duane Osterlind sits down with Swami Revati, a Hindu monk with over 15 years of monastic experience. Together, they explore the intersection of Eastern spirituality, modern psychology, and the human search for lasting fulfillment. Swami Revati shares his journey from a multicultural upbringing to finding his spiritual mentor, offering a refreshing perspective on how Hinduism serves as a "science of the self." The conversation delves into the importance of proactive living, the role of divine grace, and how to cultivate an internal source of happiness that remains stable regardless of external circumstances.Swami Revati clarifies that Hinduism is not just a cultural identity or a polytheistic religion of competing gods. Instead, it is a diverse representation of one divine source. It functions as a marriage between philosophy and theology, focusing on two main steps:Self-Knowledge: Understanding who you are in full depth.Divine Connection: Understanding your source and building a relationship with it.The Power of Proactive LivingMost people live by "reciprocal love"—waiting for others to be kind or respectful before responding in kind. Swami Revati argues for proactive living:Decide who you want to be based on characteristics (humility, respect, love) rather than roles (job title, family status).Maintain those characteristics even when the environment doesn't reward them.Stability comes from mastering your inner world irrespective of external chaos.The Mind as Friend or FoeThe Goal: To make the mind your "best of friends" through discipline.The Method: Sadhana (spiritual practice). This involves "negation"—the practice of saying no to impulses in small ways to build the "muscle" for larger life challenges.Redefining Happiness vs. PleasureSensory Pleasure: Temporary, circumstantial, and often tied to addictive cycles (e.g., food, social media).True Happiness: An internal, stable state discovered by tapping into the "spark of divinity" within the soul.5. The Anatomy of "Evil"Swami Revati breaks down negative behaviors not as an entity, but as a byproduct of three factors:Anger: Uncontrolled emotional lashing.Desire: Selfish, short-term pleasure-seeking.Ego: Selfishness and lack of service to something greater.Memorable Quotes"For one who has the mind under control, it is the best of friends; for one who doesn't, it is the worst of enemies." — Swami Revati (referencing the Bhagavad Gita)"If happiness is reduced to just eating some fries and drinking a milkshake... that is momentary sensory pleasure. It has a lot to do with addictive cycles.""Nobody can help someone that doesn't want to help themselves... you must have the belief that it can change."Resources Thinking Bhakti Podcast: Hosted by Swami Revati.YouTube Channel The Bhagavad Gita: A foundational textIf you live in California and are looking for counseling or therapy please check out Novus Mindful Life Counseling and Recovery CenterNovusMindfulLife.comWe want to hear from you.

Most school owners aren't losing money because of one major expense.They're losing money in the quiet places—the small operational habits, the unspoken “just this once” purchases, and the daily micro-decisions no one sees.These are money leaks—and they drain profit, capacity, and emotional bandwidth far more than leaders realize.In this episode, Chanie shares a short but powerful clip from HQ member Nikki, who took the Money Leaks Diagnostic and used one simple rhythm—not an overhaul—to cut her supply costs by 50% in 90 days.But the deeper transformation is even more important:She stopped carrying the financial stress alone.Her team stepped into real ownership.Her assistant director found confidence she hadn't trusted in herself for years.And the entire school strengthened its financial gear.This episode is a reminder that financial health is deeply connected to culture, leadership, and operational rhythms—not just spreadsheets.If you want a school that runs with more clarity, less reactivity, and stronger team buy-in, this conversation will open your eyes to what's possible.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeWhy most schools lose money through leaks, not large expensesHow simple rhythms—not complex systems—create predictable financial stabilityThe connection between financial health and team cultureHow to establish a supply baseline that restores clarity and reduces wasteWhy teachers and support staff play a role in every single gear, including financialsHow ownership develops when leaders stop holding everything aloneThe emotional relief that comes from shifting financial responsibility from “me” to “we”Key Insights for School Leaders1. Money leaks are leadership problems, not budgeting problems. They're symptoms of unclear rhythms, inconsistent expectations, and leaders carrying operational details alone.2. Stability is built through small, predictable systems. Not dramatic overhauls—just rhythms your team can trust and repeat.3. Every team member influences your financial gear. When teachers understand usage, they naturally make different decisions.4. Ownership grows when leaders step back. Nikki's story shows how powerful it is when a leader stops rescuing and starts equipping.Memorable Quotes“Most leaders don't need more money. They need fewer leaks.”“You don't fix financial stress by working harder—you fix it by installing a rhythm that everyone can follow.”“Every person in your building is part of every gear. Financial health is a team sport.”“Relief doesn't come from overhauling your school. It comes from sharing the weight.”Why This Matters for Your SchoolA school with constant money leaks will always feel behind—financially, emotionally, and operationally. When you strengthen this gear:✓ Your team takes more ownership✓ Your spending becomes predictable✓ Your systems stabilize✓ Your culture strengthens✓ Your leadership becomes lighterThis isn't about cutting corners.It's about aligning your people, your systems, and your rhythms so your school can breathe again.Take the Next StepIf you want to identify your biggest leaks and begin plugging them immediately:Take the Money Leaks Diagnostic schoolsofexcellence.com/moneyleaksThis diagnostic will show you exactly where money is slipping through the cracks — and give you a clear starting point for strengthening your school's financial

The real St. Nick was not a jolly old man driving a sleigh of magic reindeer but a real man of deep faith. On In The Market with Janet Parshall this week learned more about this very important man and his deep and sacrificial devotion to God and to others. We tend to think of economics in terms of financial figures, but our guest shared a power story of how the free market and what it provides became a life saving factor in her daughter’s life and a life changing factor in her own. We once again spent time with an expert in the area of technology to address the growing concerns over the increased use of artificial intelligence, better known as A.I.. He shared his insights into the concerns that parents should have about this ever-encroaching technology and how it has and will continue to impact the lives of their children. The story of God becoming man in the form of a babe in a manger is so much bigger than we tend to think. We spoke to a highly respected pastor who pulled back the veil of eternity to help us see the powerful lessons about God encased in His choice to become flesh and dwell among us. It is THAT time of year again. A time where, despite all good intentions, it is often impossible to avoid stress as we prepare and celebrate the Christmas season. To help you navigate these challenges we turned to one of our favorite experts on family issues to give us clear, biblically sound guidance on how to navigate the anxiety that can come from these pressure-filled times and find true joy in the midst of this Christmas holiday. The week is coming to an end and that means we are inviting you to join our favorite husband and wife team as they continue teaching us how to analyze what we hear in the news and measure it against God’s unblemished wisdom.Become a Parshall Partner: http://moodyradio.org/donateto/inthemarket/partnersSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode, we explore how to support steady blood sugar during the holiday season using Ayurvedic wisdom. With more sugar, irregular meals, travel, and stress during the holidays, it's easy for the body's metabolic fire (agni) to become overwhelmed. Ayurveda offers practical, gentle tools to keep digestion strong, cravings balanced, and energy steady. We take a deeper look at the pancreas as a home of agni and how its function relates to three key subdoshas: Pachaka Pitta, Kledaka Kapha, and Samana Vayu. You'll learn how these forces work together to regulate metabolism, mood, and digestive rhythm and why sugar crashes are both a physical and emotional imbalance. You'll also discover: Why holiday habits disrupt blood sugar How sugar cravings form from an Ayurvedic standpoint Simple remedies for sugar crashes Spices that naturally support metabolic balance Eating rhythms and lifestyle tools that strengthen agni Practices to prevent toxins (ama) and emotional overload during the festive season Whether you struggle with cravings, energy dips, or digestive heaviness this time of year, this episode offers grounded, practical support to help you stay balanced through the holidays.

In the first of a 2 part series, I'm joined by Harvey Fortis, a performance nutritionist and researcher completing his PhD at Liverpool John Moores University, where he studies gut and metabolic responses in endurance athletes. Harvey also works with INEOS Cycling and Total Endurance Nutrition, so he sees first-hand how gut health can make or break performance. We start by laying the foundations of what the gut microbiome actually is, but quickly move into why it matters in everyday life. We explore how gut health influences sleep, stress, immunity, inflammation, mood, and even how well you tolerate training and racing. If you've ever struggled with poor sleep, anxiety, IBS, repeated illness, or unexplained fatigue, this episode will help you understand why the gut is often the missing piece. What We Cover What the microbiome is and why it behaves like a “city within” Why gut health starts before birth and stabilises early in life How gut imbalance can disrupt sleep and keep the nervous system switched on The gut–brain axis and why 80% of signals travel from gut to brain How chronic low-grade inflammation starts in the gut Why frequent illness and poor recovery often point to gut health issues The link between gut health and skin conditions like eczema and psoriasis Why many performance problems aren't training issues at all, but gut issues Key Quote ( 00:09:59 ) “We host around 30 to 40 trillion bacterial cells – roughly as many as your own human cells – and they all work together like a thriving city inside you.” – Harvey Fortis Key Message Your gut is more than a digestive system – it's a living ecosystem that drives energy, recovery, mood, and resilience. When the good bacteria thrive, everything else follows.

In this inspiring episode of Warriors Unmasked, Chuck Thuss sits down with Adrienne Caldwell — a survivor, author, and advocate whose journey proves that even the darkest beginnings can lead to a life filled with purpose, peace, and hope. Adrienne opens up about a childhood marked by trauma and instability, but also the powerful turning point that set her on a path toward healing, rebuilding, and reclaiming her voice. Today, she uses her story to help others feel seen, supported, and empowered in their own healing. This conversation is emotional, courageous, and ultimately uplifting — a reminder that no matter what you've been through, it's never too late to rise, heal, and write a new chapter. Guest Bio Adrienne Caldwell is the author of the forthcoming memoir Unbroken: Life Outside the Lines — a raw and unflinching account of her journey through trauma, survival, and ultimately, healing. The book sheds light on the darkest corners of the human experience, including untreated mental illness, homelessness, foster care abuse, incest, addiction, and sexual violence, and emerges with a message of fierce resilience and unbreakable hope. More than a chronicle of pain, Unbroken is a story of identity, family, love, and finding your voice when the world refuses to listen. It's about reclaiming power and choosing purpose over despair. You'll hear About The childhood trauma that shaped Adrienne's early life How repression, addiction, and self-medicating became survival tools The moment that changed her healing journey How writing her book forced her to face decades of buried trauma Finding peace, stability, and purpose after a lifetime of hardship Chapters 00:00 Welcome and Introduction 01:10 Adrienne's Mission and Early Life 02:14 Trauma Beginning at Age Five 04:39 Suicide Attempts and a Life-Changing Moment 07:01 Growing Up with Mental Illness in the Home 09:23 Moving Homes, Instability, and Emotional Repression 11:51 Attachment Disorder and Numbing the Pain 13:50 The Psychiatric Ward Epiphany 16:41 Discovering the Truth in Her CPS Files 18:49 Emotional Abuse in Foster Care 20:53 Beginning the Writing and Healing Process 23:36 Overcoming Grief, Loss, and Hardship 26:07 Family Patterns and Lack of Awareness 28:30 Gratitude, Stability, and a New Life 30:53 Living with Purpose and Inspiring Others 33:20 A Message to Anyone Who Feels Hopeless 35:42 Chuck's Closing Reflections Chuck's Challenge This week, take one honest step toward facing something you've been avoiding.

This episode features host Greg and Lewis Ward discussing the true nature of virtual worlds with Wagner James Au, author of Making a Metaverse That Matters, exploring the core design, economic, and community philosophies of successful platforms.SummaryThe discussion defines the metaverse as a vast, immersive virtual world with five core features, including highly customizable avatars and a link to the real-world economy . Au argues that to succeed, a platform must be fun immediately in a multiplayer context, operating as a "third space" where socialization is easy . He contends that Mark Zuckerberg's approach damaged the ideal of the metaverse by focusing too much on hardware and ignoring crucial lessons on community and regulation . The history of Second Life (SL) serves as a critical case study, showing that while strong community allows a platform to survive economic crises and bad onboarding, financial stability requires tightly regulated markets, learned through scandals like the implosion of virtual banks and the ban on unregulated gambling . Ultimately, the key to a thriving metaverse is prioritizing community, fostering diversity, and making creation easy .Key PointsCore Metaverse Definition A true metaverse is defined by Immersiveness, Customization (avatars/tools), Scale (millions of people), a Real-World Economy Link, and Off-World Tech Integration (for accessibility) .Identity and Design Avatars and Identity (05:51): Highly customizable avatars are critical for users to experiment with identity and personality . The Proteus Effect shows that an appealing avatar can boost real-world confidence. The "Fun First" Rule (15:40): Metaverse experiences must be fun immediately in a multiplayer setting (the Third Space concept) . This is why Roblox and Fortnite succeed. Meta's Misstep (10:26): Mark Zuckerberg caused "tremendous damage" to the concept by defining it around the Quest headset and ignoring lessons on managing toxic behavior, like the initial sexual harassment incidents on Horizon Worlds .Economics and Stability Community Precedes Commerce (29:44): Platforms must succeed as communities first. Focusing only on profit (the "Cryptoverse" issue) causes virtual worlds to fail . Second Life's Stability (22:31): SL's active user base is stable at 600,000. The paradox is that if a user survives the long onboarding, they "never leave" due to the community. Regulation is Necessary (40:53): SL's banking and gambling scandals forced Linden Lab to impose tight regulation . This proves that a tightly regulated economy is essential for user trust and stability.Timestamps 03:30 The Five Core Features of the Metaverse 05:51 Avatars and the "Proteus Effect" 10:26 Why Meta Damaged the Metaverse Concept 15:40 The Critical Rule: Why Metaverse Must Be Fun First 22:31 Second Life's Paradox: Why users never leaveReferencesMaking a Metaverse That MattersWagner James Au Lewis Ward Greg PosnerCheck out Player Driven
Have you ever wondered why certain pains keep coming back no matter how much you stretch, rest or change your workouts? Sometimes the issue isn't the pain itself, but the way your body is trying to move without enough support.In this episode I sat down with a physiotherapist and rehab coach to talk about how strength and stability shift recurring aches, why hip control matters more than people realize, how your core holds you in everyday movement and why loaded mobility often creates more change than stretching alone.If you've been dealing with spots that keep acting up or you want to feel more supported when you train, you'll walk away with things that help right away. It's grounded and helps you make sense of what's been happening in your body.Tayla Cannon is the founder of Athletic Rebuild, a virtual approach that helps people move past quick relief and into strength that supports real-life movement.

In this powerhouse episode of In The Lab, Ruben sits down with Jack Martin — co-founder and CIO of 52TEN, one of the top mobile home park operators in the United States. Jack brings decades of experience across development, acquisitions, capital formation, and operations, having overseen over $1B in real estate projects and more than 2,000 lots nationwide.Jack breaks down why mobile home parks sit at the lowest end of the real-estate risk spectrum, how they deliver unusually stable cash flow, and why investors from high-net-worth individuals to family offices chase the asset class for its superior tax advantages. He explains the core difference between mobile home parks and RV parks, why land improvements are the real engine of bonus depreciation, and how lot-rent economics create both affordability for residents and reliable income for operators.Throughout the conversation, Jack unpacks key levers for value creation — sub-metering, operational discipline, expense reduction, proper sizing for scale, and what separates truly institutional-quality parks from everything else. He also reveals how his team evaluates 150 deals a year and buys only three, why scarcity drives long-term upside, and how EOS, belief, and people have shaped 52TEN's rise into a market leader.This episode is a must-listen for anyone who wants to understand the real math behind mobile home park investing, see how large operators think, and learn why this niche remains one of the most tax-efficient, recession-resistant strategies in the country.

His journey reveals how a shift in mindset can ripple into faith, family, business, and long-term purpose. Press play for a wake-up call wrapped in real stories, practical wisdom, and a few laughs from a man who rebuilt more than once.

New START, the last bilateral nuclear arms control treaty between the United States and Russia, will expire in February 2026 if Washington and Moscow do not reach an understanding on its extension—as they have signaled they are interested to do.

Belfer International Affairs Fellow in European Security, at the Council on Foreign Relations, and Matthew Sharp, Fellow at MIT's Center for Nuclear Security Policy, to discuss what New START is, the implications of its expiration, and where the arms control regime might go from here.For further reading, see:“Putin's Nuclear Offer: How to Navigate a New START Extension,” by John Drennan and Erin D.

Seoul's Dangerous Pivot North — Gordon Chang — Chang warns that South Korea's newly elected leftist presidentthreatens the stability of the U.S.-South Korea security alliance by seeking diplomatic unification with the North, pursuing engagement strategies likely to be rejected by Kim Jong-un. Chang documents that North Korea's Kim Jong-un is simultaneously deepening military-technical cooperation with Russia against Ukraine, creating triangular strategic complications threatening regional stability. Chang emphasizes that South Korea's strategic pivot toward North Koreawill destabilize the American alliance framework in Northeast Asia precisely when Russian-Chinese-North Koreancoordination represents an escalating threat to American regional interests and Pacific stability.
