“I just want what’s best for them.”That’s what every loving parent says. But sometimes, in our desperation to protect our kids from failure—or secure their success—we push too hard, and it backfires. In this conversation with psychologist and parenting expert Professor Wendy Grolnick, we explore the hidden costs of being a pushy parent and how to guide our children in healthier, more empowering ways. Drawing on decades of research and her landmark book The Psychology of Parental Control, Wendy shares practical, compassionate strategies that help parents avoid power struggles and build confident, capable kids.

Dr. Bernard Beitman is among the world's leading authorities on coincidences, or synchronicities, how they affect our lives and how we can make them work for us. Above all, it's a matter of NOTICING, and in this show Bernie tells us just how he does that and how it has enabled him to follow an enviably rich and productive life plan. Anne Strieber used to say that synchronicities mean that "we are on our soul plan." So, how do we find that thread and how do we keep following it? Listen as Bernie tells how noticing and making use of coincidences has enriched his life. Learn more about Bernie's work at Coincider. com. To get Meaningful Coincidences, click here.

In this episode of SpaceTime, we uncover groundbreaking discoveries and innovative advancements in the realm of space and planetary science.Record-Breaking Cosmic Structure DiscoveredAstronomers have imaged an unprecedented cosmic structure, a massive cloud of energetic particles surrounding a galaxy cluster that spans nearly 200 million light years. This remarkable finding, presented at the 246th meeting of the American Astronomical Society, challenges existing theories about particle energization, suggesting that giant shock waves and turbulence are at play rather than nearby galaxies. We delve into the implications of this discovery for our understanding of cosmic magnetic fields and the dynamics of galaxy clusters.A New Approach to Building MarsA recent study has revealed a novel method for planetary core formation, suggesting that molten sulfide rather than metal could create a core in rocky planets like Mars. This research, published in Nature Communications, offers fresh insights into the early evolution of terrestrial worlds, particularly in sulfur-rich environments. We discuss how this finding could reshape our understanding of Mars's geochemical timeline and its core formation process.High-Performance Infrared Nano AntennasScientists have developed innovative gold nano antennas that significantly enhance the capabilities of thermal infrared cameras, improving image quality and sensitivity. This advancement, led by researchers at Sandia National Laboratories, allows for clearer observations of thermal infrared radiation, with applications ranging from astronomy to national security. We explore the technology behind these nano antennas and their potential impact on various fields.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesNature Communicationshttps://www.nature.com/ncomms/American Astronomical Societyhttps://aas.org/Sandia National Laboratorieshttps://www.sandia.gov/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-space-astronomy--2458531/support.00:00 This is Space Time Series 28, Episode 74 for broadcast on 20 June 202501:00 Record-breaking cosmic structure discovered12:15 A new approach to building Mars22:30 High-performance infrared nano antennas30:00 Science report: New dinosaur species discovered

Jesse Hoogland and Daniel Murfet, founders of Timaeus, introduce their mathematically rigorous approach to AI safety through "developmental interpretability" based on Singular Learning Theory. They explain how neural network loss landscapes are actually complex, jagged surfaces full of "singularities" where models can change internally without affecting external behavior—potentially masking dangerous misalignment. Using their Local Learning Coefficient measure, they've demonstrated the ability to identify critical phase changes during training in models up to 7 billion parameters, offering a complementary approach to mechanistic interpretability. This work aims to move beyond trial-and-error neural network training toward a more principled engineering discipline that could catch safety issues during training rather than after deployment.

On Sunday, Alex posed this question: How do you have a Spirit-filled and led people in a structure of church, authority, Scripture and interpretation, without quenching the activity of the Holy Spirit? We learn in 1 Corinthians 12 that the gifts of the Spirit are there for the unifying and sustaining of God's people in the age of the Spirit.  As we operate in the gifts, we discern together from our shared submission to the Holy Spirit what builds up in love and reveals Christ. Because we are humans, this will inevitably be messy, but we need the gifts and should humbly seek them out together.   Link to Sermon Guide & Activations: 06.15.25 Sermon Guide

Most people think success comes from hustling harder. But I've learned it's more about protecting your energy than pushing through.

"Business… is the best way for me to reach my full potential & see who I can become." – Behdad Jamshidi (Bee) Growing up doing math drills at the kitchen table, Bee didn't dream. Structure, discipline, grit—that was his operating system. When he became an engineer, it wasn't out of passion. It was logic. A clear, safe path. But underneath it all? A relentless curiosity & yearning for connection were quietly simmering. So, while climbing the corporate ladder, he quietly built something else. Not because he was desperate, but because something inside him wanted more. More agency. More alignment. More room to grow into the next version of himself. What started with one website grew into a successful business built on vetting & matching top marketing talent. He built patiently, not for growth's sake, but for his own: a business that could support him, his wife, & the life he wanted to live. This isn't a story about going all-in. It's a story about knowing when the time is right--& trusting you'll be ready when it is. Learn more at cjammarketing.com Wayner Dyer urged: "Don't die with your music still in you." That's no danger for Bee.

Are you a single parent wondering how to survive summer with your tween or teen home all day, pushing back on rules, and glued to a screen?As summer ramps up, many parents face a sudden breakdown in structure—and a surge in screen time battles, communication gaps, and behavior problems. But with a few simple resets, summer doesn't have to feel chaotic or draining. In this episode, we're breaking down how to set expectations early, create boundaries that work, and take care of yourself in the process.Here's what you'll walk away with: ✅ A framework to reset summer routines that actually stick (even if it's already July) ✅ How to set screen time limits that reduce conflict and improve communication ✅ A self-care strategy for single parents that recharges you—and models balance for your childListen now and learn how to create a summer rhythm that supports better communication, healthier screen time habits, and a calmer home—even with teens and tweens in the mix.

Hi Parents! Are you worried about summer break feeling stressful? For parents of anxious teens, the end of the school year can bring more tension than relief. With no routine, more screen time, and long days filled with “what now?” moments, it's easy to feel overwhelmed by the pressure to keep your teen busy, happy, and mentally well. Add in your own work schedule and responsibilities, and suddenly summer starts to feel less like a break and more like a juggling act. In this solo episode, I'm talking about what really happens when anxious teens lose the structure of school - and what you can do to help them feel more secure and supported during these unstructured months. You'll hear why screens become such a tempting escape, how to gently build in a sense of purpose and routine without making it feel like summer school, and how to invite your teen into planning their days so they feel empowered, not controlled. I'll also share a fun strategy I personally use with my friends - creating a shared summer list on a Google Doc. It's a simple but powerful way to keep everyone connected and looking forward to things without the pressure of over-scheduling. We'll also explore how to carve out space for your teen to help around the house - not every day, but enough to give them a sense of contribution and accountability. And if you've ever felt like you're the entertainment committee 24/7, I've got thoughts on how to shift that dynamic too, so boredom doesn't always fall back on you. This episode is filled with easy, doable strategies for creating a summer that feels a little more intentional, a little less chaotic, and a whole lot more connected. So if you're already bracing yourself for the summer juggle, this one's for you.

Higher education leaders are searching for better ways to engage students, improve retention, and close equity gaps—especially in the wake of COVID-related learning disruptions. In this episode of the Changing Higher Ed® podcast, Dr. Drumm McNaughton speaks with Dr. Justin Shaffer, Associate Dean for Undergraduate Studies and Teaching Professor in Chemical and Biological Engineering at the Colorado School of Mines. They discuss Dr. Shaffer's book, High Structure Course Design, which offers a proven framework for transforming student outcomes. High structure course design—built on clarity, repetition, feedback, and engagement—originated in STEM education but is now widely recognized as effective across disciplines. This approach doesn't water down rigor; it scaffolds the learning process so students at all levels can succeed. The result: better retention, higher achievement, and greater equity in academic outcomes. This conversation is especially relevant for institutional leaders seeking to scale evidence-based instructional practices and boost institutional performance. Topics Covered: Why many students struggle in gateway courses and what faculty can do differently The long-term effects of post-COVID learning disruptions on student readiness Three structural layers that drive student engagement and retention Four foundational principles that support learning across all disciplines How high structure pedagogy closes equity gaps without lowering standards The undervalued impact of teaching-focused faculty on student success Infrastructure and leadership decisions that enable faculty innovation How structured courses also improve career readiness and workforce outcomes Real-World Examples: 40–60% failure rates improved through course redesign A biology field course that teaches both science and professional skills Centers for teaching and learning that support faculty-wide improvements Three Takeaways for Leadership: Course design is one of the most powerful and underused levers for retention and equity. Teaching-focused faculty are essential institutional assets and must be supported. Scalable infrastructure for instructional quality is not optional—it's a strategic necessity. Recommended For: Presidents, provosts, academic leaders, board members, and faculty development directors who want scalable ways to boost student success and institutional outcomes.

Debt might be the most misunderstood tool in wealth creation. While most Australians see debt as something to eliminate, the wealthy understand it's something to structure strategically.In this illuminating conversation with Vasco Duarte, a senior debt advisor with 28 years of industry experience, we explore the sophisticated approaches to debt management that separate ordinary investors from truly successful ones. Vasco breaks down how financial planning evolves through life stages – from getting your first foothold in property during your twenties, to maximizing borrowing capacity in your thirties, aggressively accumulating assets in your forties, and finally transitioning toward retirement planning in your fifties.The discussion delves deep into crucial considerations rarely addressed in mainstream financial advice: how to effectively separate business assets from personal investments, protect family wealth when helping children enter the property market, and maintain liquidity for future opportunities. Vasco reveals that what truly distinguishes high-net-worth families isn't just their goals or vision – it's their execution capability and foresight to plan 5-10 years ahead, surrounding themselves with trusted experts who bring specialized knowledge to the table.Perhaps most valuable is Vasco's perspective shift on what many borrowers experience as "mortgage prison." Rather than seeing lending limitations as constraints, he reframes them as potential opportunities through alternative lending sources – where slightly higher costs can be justified by the returns generated from new investment opportunities. Whether you're a business owner looking to de-risk your personal assets, a parent wanting to help your children without exposing your wealth, or simply someone seeking to optimize your financial structures, this episode provides rare insights into the strategies employed by Australia's most financially sophisticated families. Listen now to transform your approach to debt from a burden to a powerful wealth-building tool.

A problem that most of Karen's students inevitably face is how to structure a scent. Once they learn the perfume pyramid, top, middle and base notes, they assume that they have learned all they need to know…but they haven't.  The problems arise when synthetic materials are introduced as the perfume pyramid is not the best model for them. In this episode, Karen is going to break down when the pyramid structure works and when you should seek alternative solutions, and, she's also going to share her tried and tested method when working with synthetics.  KEY TAKEAWAYS What exactly is the ‘Pyramid Method'? How and why does it work? What is the structure? And how do you use it? Karen tells you all you need to know about this method. In Karen's ‘One Day Natural Perfume' class she teaches a method based around creating accords. She discusses this method, why and how it works and why it is a perfect alternative to the ‘Pyramid Method'. But once you've got your accords how do you work with them? Karen explains why accords are the best foundation of creating a scent, but why, once you've created them, you still have work to do.  Once you've got an understanding of the different methods of creating a scent, you are left with a question “Which is the right method to use?” Karen details the questions you have to consider when deciding on the right method for the fragrance you are creating.  BEST MOMENTS  “The perfume pyramid works brilliantly for natural perfume because volatility matters.” “If you master creating great accords, you're not going to be starting from scratch every time you make a perfume.” “There isn't a one-size-fits-all method for every fragrance you will make. They are all tools to help you.” EPISODE LINKS Perfume Making 101 Wait List Rose Fragrance Masterclass Wait List VALUABLE RESOURCES Getting Started Guide Artisan Perfumery Mastermind   ABOUT THE HOST Fragrance expert, author, teacher and speaker; Karen Gilbert runs courses in the UK and online which demystify the secretive world of perfumery in a fun and interactive way.  Karen has inspired thousands of students to explore their olfactory sense and create their own personalised fragrances.

That's the Silent Curse passed down when we ignore wisdom, when we rebel against Discipline, Structure, and the Principles that Build Wealth. See, it ain't the system alone that keeps us in bondage—it's when we disobey the blueprint laid out by those who came before us. When grandmama told us to save, when pops said stay out the streets, when the OG tried to give you game—and we ignored it? That's where poverty festers. Disobedience to order, to structure, to process—that's what robs families of legacy and keeps the next generation starting from scratch every single time. We want freedom, but we disobey the Laws of Money. We want success, but we reject the grind. That kind of disobedience don't liberate—it enslaves. It looks cool in the moment, but it costs you compound interest, ownership, and peace of mind down the road. The streets got too many kings with cardboard crowns—all because they chose rebellion over responsibility. The truth is, wealth respects order. It respects sacrifice. And if you keep disobeying the rules of elevation, your Last Name gonna keep echoing in the same broke neighborhoods your ancestors tried to escape from. Turning your LAST NAME into an Asset | Wallstreet Trapper (Episode 147) Trappin Tuesday's

The Kims, of North Korea, are perhaps the 21st century's most successful family dictatorship–if only due to sheer longevity, having run North Korea for the almost eight decades since the country's post-war founding. Kim Il-Sung led North Korea for over half that time, from its founding in 1948 to Kim's death in 1994. But who was Kim Il-Sung? How did someone who spent most of his early years in nearby Manchuria end up running North Korea? And how was Kim able to not just secure his own position, but also the position of his son (and then, in turn, his grandson)? Kim is the subject of Fyodor Tertitsky's latest book, Accidental Tyrant: The Life of Kim Il-sung (Hurst, 2025). Fyodor Tertitskiy has been living in South Korea for more than a decade, where he researches North Korean political, social and military history. He has authored several books in English and Korean, including Soviet-North Korean Relations During the Cold War (Routledge: 2024) and The North Korean Army: History, Structure, Daily Life (Routledge: 2023).

Most organizations claim to care about employee development, but upon closer examination, their approach to skills is often vague, subjective, or downright confusing. They might assume people will simply "figure it out" on the job or resort to one-size-fits-all training.

What if the financial stress you're experiencing isn't actually a money problem at all? The root issue many faith-based entrepreneurs face isn't about cash flow or revenue—it's about stewardship.This episode challenges the common belief that God promotes hustle. Contrary to popular entrepreneurial thinking, God doesn't reward constant motion and frantic activity. He rewards faithful management of what He's already entrusted to you. Drawing from the parable of the talents in Matthew 25, we explore how stewardship proves to God that we're ready for more, and how this shift in perspective can transform not only your finances but your entire approach to business.Most entrepreneurs don't need more income—they need clarity, accountability, and systems. We break down three distinct money mindsets: fear-based (avoiding accountability), control-based (clenching resources tightly), and faith-based (trusting God's guidance for your resources). Through powerful real-life examples of divine appointments and generous giving, you'll see how faithful stewardship opens doors to multiplication and impact.The episode provides a practical stewardship operating system with three key components: knowing exactly what's going in and out financially, conducting weekly financial reviews, and taking ownership of how you're stewarding what God has entrusted to you. Plus, two critical questions to help you identify areas where your stewardship needs improvement.Whether you're struggling with financial anxiety or simply looking to honor God more faithfully with your business resources, this episode will equip you with both the mindset shift and practical tools needed to move from stress to structure in your financial stewardship journey. Transform your approach to money management and watch as God multiplies not just your resources, but your impact.Welcome to the ATLG podcast I am your host Ken Joslin, former pastor turned coach & host of CREATE, the #1 Faith-based Entrepreneur conference in America.
