How to calm down fast with an 'inventory' practice, how to build 'resources' you can call on anytime, and why 'healing' might be the wrong goal to chase. Plus, living with autoimmune disorder, writing as a practice of embodiment, and why white-knuckling isn't worth it. Johanna Franzel is a teacher, somatic practitioner, educator, and author of the new book Write Yourself Home: A Creative Guide for Living Well in the Body You Have Through Embodied Writing and Movement Practice. She brings both professional expertise and the lived experience of navigating chronic illness for more than two decades. She also writes a Substack called Permission Slips. In this episode we talk about: Why your nervous system stays on high alert for threats that aren't actually there The three-step "inventory" practice for finding calm in your body, right now Why calling to mind a "resource" can genuinely shift your physiology "Presence without scrutiny": the difference between being with someone (or yourself) and staring them down Why Johanna doesn't love the word "healing" and the word she prefers instead How to turn your most embarrassing memories into material, not shame Why the way you talk to yourself matters more than you think What over two decades with Crohn's disease taught Johanna about self-advocacy and knowing your own margins Get the 10% with Dan Harris app here Sign up for Dan's free newsletter here Follow Dan on social: Instagram, TikTok Subscribe to our YouTube Channel To advertise on the show, contact sales@advertisecast.com or visit https://advertising.libsyn.com/10HappierwithDanHarris
This week on The First Degree, we're doing something a little different. Consider this episode your CHAOS crash course. Tom O'Neill's groundbreaking book CHAOS: Charles Manson, the CIA, and the Secret History of the Sixties has sparked years of conversation, debate, and controversy. But with this week's Deep Dive featuring an in-depth conversation with Tom himself, we wanted to make sure everyone could join us, whether you've read the book or not. In this episode, we break down the major players, the official Manson narrative, the questions O'Neill spent more than two decades investigating, and the evidence that turned CHAOS into one of the most talked-about true crime books of the last decade. Whether you're completely new to CHAOS or just need a refresher before our interview with Tom O'Neill, this is your TLDR.
Description:Jen is coming to you from the last two days of Me Camp in Canada, eyeballs on the lake, four weeks into having the volume turned down on every channel. And when the static quiets, the truer things rise up. In this me-to-you episode, Jen kicks off August's theme of honesty with the idea at the spine of the whole month: there is the thing we say, and then there is a truer sentence sitting an inch underneath it. And usually one inch under that.Jen shares what her own silence cost in the last years of her marriage, names the difference between truth-telling and truth-throwing, and offers the gentlest possible place to begin: one true sentence, one page, just between you and you.Thought-provoking Quotes:“Staying quiet only masquerades as keeping the peace. We are genuinely just deferring the bill.”“It doesn't disappear just because we're not willing to look it in the eye. It just goes underground, but it charges interest.”“So here I am thinking I'm protecting this marriage, protecting the kids — and I was actually helping to sink the ship.”“My body was absolutely telling the truth. Maybe my mouth wasn't, but my body was.”“There is a difference between truth telling and truth throwing.”“Honest is not the same thing as "unfiltered." Honest and kind are not opposites.”“You are not too much, and your real self is not an inconvenience.”Resources Mentioned in This Episode:The AWAKE Collective, the monthly live gathering where this conversation started, included with a paid subscription to Jen's Substack: jenhatmaker.substack.comLetters from the Middle, Jen's Substack, where the honesty conversation continues all month: jenhatmaker.substack.comTell us your story — head to jenhatmaker.com/podcast, look for the Send Voicemail button, and tell Jen the quiet thing you finally said out loud (or the one you're working up to).Connect with Jen!Jen's Website - https://jenhatmaker.com/Jen's Substack - https://jenhatmaker.substack.com/Jen's Instagram - https://instagram.com/jenhatmakerJen's Twitter - https://twitter.com/jenHatmaker/Jen's Facebook - https://facebook.com/jenhatmakerJen's YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/user/JenHatmakerThe For the Love Podcast is presented by Audacy.

Yohe, Professor Emeritus at Wesleyan University, is a climate change expert with 40 plus years' experience, Nobel Peace Prize-recognized, focusing on mitigation, adaptation, and economic impacts of environmental policy. Top 3 Value Bombs 1. Climate policy and science must be iterative; decisions today should evolve as new data and realities emerge. 2. Not all climate risks can or should be measured purely in economic terms; human lives and ecosystems carry intrinsic value. 3.

America's oligarchs are selling the country for parts. What happens when the people finally reach a breaking point? This week, Gaslit Nation is joined by Casey Michel, author of the new book United States of Oligarchy, for a chilling, and ultimately empowering, look at how extreme wealth, floods of money from our foreign adversaries, and decades of dismantled anti-corruption laws brought American democracy to the brink. Michel is a longtime investigator of kleptocracy and authoritarian influence sanctioned by Russia. His new book examines how America's wealthiest people have allied themselves with dictators while weakening democracy at home as major law firms and media jump aboard the gravy train. At the center of our conversation is oligarchy poster child Jared Kushner and his extraordinary record of failing upward: from buying and hollowing out the once-revered New York Observer, to the disastrous $1.8 billion purchase of the ominous 666 Fifth Avenue, to the billions in foreign sovereign wealth invested in his private-equity firm after his years shaping American foreign policy–a grift he continues today as our shadow Secretary of State. Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund invested $2 billion in Kushner's Affinity Partners shortly after he left the White House, even after the fund's own advisers reportedly raised serious concerns about the firm. Kushner had cultivated a close relationship with Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman (MBS), who killed dissident and Washington Post writer Jamal Khashoggi. Kushner even reportedly passed on sensitive intel about Khashoggi to MBS. Casey explains how corporations accumulated political power, how post-Watergate anti-corruption reforms were dismantled, and why today's concentration of wealth makes the original Gilded Age look quaint. Most importantly, we discuss the reforms that could break oligarchic power and how ordinary people can take back the country from the Epstein Class. Listen or watch now for a clear-eyed guide to who bought America, how they did it, and how we take it back. In this week's bonus show, our conversation continues with the practical question: How do we smash an oligarchy? Casey examines the pressure building beneath America's kleptocratic system, the reforms still available to us, and what history tells us happens when ruling elites refuse to change. Despair is what oligarchs want.

In this episode, I sit down with Madison Utendahl, founder, CMO, & writer of Burnt on Substack, for her second time on the show. Madison walks us through why she shut down her agency at the height of its success and what it actually took to separate her identity from her work. She opens up about the guilt and shame that shaped her twenties, her 70/30 rule for keeping part of her life untouched by monetizing, and the ketamine therapy experience that helped her heal. Plus, why she believes burnout recovery is bullshit and prevention is the only real strategy.Key Takeaway / Points:Why she closed her profitable agency and the offer she walked away fromThe 70/30 rule: letting a job just be a job so 30% of your life holds no financial expectationWhy "quit your job and follow your passion" doesn't work anymore, and what burnout prevention looks like insteadMoving from guilt and shame around financial privilege into responsibilityHow she grew her following on social media in 60 daysHer non-negotiable 15 minutes every morning to prevent burnout, plus ketamine therapy, phone-free mornings, and finding gratitude in the smallest momentsCheck out Madison's Substack BURNTListen to Madison's first episode on the podcast HEREArticles about company's laying off employees & replacing with AI:https://www.fastcompany.com/91332763/going-ai-first-appears-to-be-backfiring-on-klarna-and-duolingohttps://www.fastcompany.com/91468582/klarna-tried-to-replace-its-workforce-with-aiFollow Madison:Instagram: @madison.utendahlTikTok: @madison.utendahlSubstack: BURNTWebsite: madisonutendahl.comFollow me:Instagram: @cameronoaksrogersSubstack: Fill Your CupWebsite: cameronoaksrogers.comTikTok: @cameronoaksrogersYouTube: Cameron Rogers

Andy Burnham is the first Prime Minister on How to Fail. Past leaders have run scared of doing a podcast with ‘fail' in the title - but not this one. As he says in this conversation: ‘if you've not succeeded, you have to understand why it happened, and what you're going to do about it.' Wise words from a global leader. Burnham is now our 7th Prime Minister in 10 years, having won a decisive by-election in Makerfield and having received nominations from 94% of Labour MPs in an unopposed leadership contest. In this exclusive episode, recorded at No. 10 North, Andy talks about growing up, how his Catholic faith has shaped his outlook (and whether or not he snuck some communion wine as an altar boy). Plus: imposter syndrome, what he learned from his past failed leadership bids, friendships within politics, how his wife responded to his desire to run for PM, the meaning of ‘home' and whether or not his dad, who suffers from Alzheimer's, knows his son has become Prime Minister. A must-listen, even if we do say so ourselves.

The conversation also turns to Tottenham's pursuit of attacking reinforcements on the wings, with the club heavily linked to Pedro Neto, Cody Gakpo, Omar Marmoush, and long-term target Savinho. Mike explains where Spurs stand in the race for those players and reveals what the club's priorities are between now and the close of the transfer window.

The Hound of the Baskervilles, Chapter 6: Baskerville Hall by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle — A Calming Bedtime Story for Sleep & Insomnia | Books at Bedtime A sleep story for anyone lying awake with a busy mind. Tonight, Books at Bedtime continues Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's The Hound of the Baskervilles with Chapter 6 — Baskerville Hall — read slowly and softly by Martin Hewlett, host of Calming Anxiety. Dr Watson leaves Baker Street behind and travels down into Devonshire with Sir Henry Baskerville and Dr Mortimer. Sherlock Holmes stays in London with his parting instruction: report the facts, and leave the theorising to him. The journey carries them past sunlit orchards and gabled houses, and then out onto the great brooding moor. There are armed guards at the little wayside station, a convict loose on Dartmoor, and a house of long shadows waiting at the end of the avenue — and in the dead of the night, Watson hears the sob of a woman somewhere inside Baskerville Hall. Let the words carry you. There is nothing to follow and nothing to remember — if you drift off before the end of the chapter, that is exactly what this recording is for. You can always come back to it tomorrow night. This is a classic audiobook reading for relaxation, insomnia relief and deep sleep — part of the Books at Bedtime and Coffee Break for the Soul series from Calming Anxiety, hosted by clinical hypnotherapist and former paramedic Martin Hewlett. Take Calming Anxiety with you anywhere — download Anchored on iOS. Access over 3,000 searchable, offline-ready audio sessions, sleep stories with Books at Bedtime, and built-in nightlight features for the small hours.

This conversation with bestselling author Elise Loehnen explores how spiritual practice can help us question the beliefs we've inherited about being a "good woman." Krista + Elise unpack shame, envy, comparison, and desire, revealing how these patterns shape our lives—and how spirituality can become a path back to authenticity. Together, they explore the misunderstood story of Mary Magdalene, the origins of the seven deadly sins, and why emotions like envy, anger, and longing aren't flaws to overcome but invitations to deeper self-understanding. Elise shares how questioning old narratives can become one of the most powerful spiritual practices we have. From body image + ambition to belonging + purpose, this conversation invites you to rethink the rules you've inherited and embrace a more intentional way of living. If you've ever struggled with comparison, perfectionism, or feeling like you have to be "good" to be worthy, this episode offers a fresh perspective on spirituality, freedom, and self-worth. We also talk about: The truth about Mary Magdalene that history left out How the "good girl" script shows up in everyday life Why envy is pointing you toward your next chapter Releasing guilt around desire, ambition, and wanting more Healing your relationship with food + your body The emotional cost of comparison + perfectionism How shame disconnects us from our intuition Choosing depth over performance in the age of social media Finding freedom beyond society's expectations Why your triggers may be your greatest teachers Resources: Instagram: @eliseloehnen Substack: eliseloehnen.substack.com Book: https://a.co/d/0hlAvZYx Sponsors: Naturium | Give your skin the affordable, luxurious glow up it deserves.

The DOJ courtesy of DC Attorney Jeanine Pirro have moved to dismiss a case that it never should have indicted in the first place.They filed a motion to dismiss the Trumped-up charges against 67-year-old former Olympic athlete David Hearn for reaching into the water of the reflecting pool and feeling a piece of the peeling blue pool liner. And the motion to dismiss that was filed has resulted in the rats in the Trump administration eating one another.Find Glenn on Substack: glennkirschner.substack.comSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
#358: Today's solo episode started as a reflection on my own disillusionment and turned into a bigger theme: de-influencing. De-influencing myself from glow-up culture, from FOMO, and so much more. The more I let go of what I'm "supposed" to want, the luckier I actually feel — and I think most of us have at least one thing we're still letting an algorithm or a comment section talk us into.If you've ever gone along with something because you thought you were supposed to want it, only to realize once you were in it that it didn't actually feel good, this episode is for you. I'm getting into what it looks like to actually listen to that feeling instead of pushing through it, and what's on the other side when you do.This episode is for you if…You're tired of contorting yourself to be palatable and want permission to stop.You've ever felt FOMO about an event, a trip, or an opportunity and needed someone to talk you off the ledge.You're ready to get harder to influence, and luckier for it.Sponsors:Luxe Tribes: Visit https://www.luxetribes.com and use code LUCKY at checkout for $100 off your first trip.Rula: Rula patients typically pay $15 per session when using insurance.

There were anxious whispers behind the scenes ahead of the Bake Club July recipe reveal. Concerns floated around that it might have been a bit too esoteric. Sweet corn in a cake? And not just any cake but a delightfully bouncy butter mochi made with sweet rice flour. Senior Test Kitchen editors Shilpa Uskokovic and Jesse Szweczyk were bracing for the reactions in the comments section when Shilpa's Sweet Corn Butter Mochi With Coconut Crunch recipe finally dropped. “We were not slightly worried. I was like, "This is gonna flop." This is it for us,” recalls Jesse on the BA Bake Club Podcast. But, the Bake Club community once again proved themselves to be the confident, curious bakers we know and love. The cake is a hit! “I hope you guys know how much it means to us,” says Shilpa. “I'm very touched every month when you guys bake our recipes, and we see you in the Substack chat and you post these pictures. So, this is very heartwarming for me.” The love fest continues as we award Baker of the Month to one bake clubber who dared to pair his Sweet Corn Butter Mochi with dinner, not dessert. Plus, we (virtually) jetted off to Hawaii to catch up with Katherine Yang, who ran the incredibly successful by-order cake bakery, Gigi Blue, and is currently executive pastry chef at Mille Fête in Honolulu's Chinatown. To learn about the dessert scene in Hawaii and pick up a few tips for the perfect butter mochi cake, give the episode a listen.

What if the sentence that changes your life is the one you almost didn't publish? In this episode, I'm sharing the story of how a single sentence from an old blog post unexpectedly ended up on a billboard in Europe, and why it completely changed the way I think about creativity, publishing, and trusting your work. If you've been sitting on an essay, a book idea, a Substack post, or even a single paragraph because you're waiting for it to be better, this episode is your reminder that you don't get to decide which piece of your work will resonate with someone else. Your job isn't to predict the outcome. It's to keep showing up. By the end of this episode, I hope you'll give yourself permission to stop overthinking, start publishing, and remember that one honest sentence has the power to change everything.
Last week, our expert Arthur Brooks gave us some surefire advice for resetting the parent-child relationship so your kids don't treat you like an emotional ATM. On this episode of How To!, he's going to teach our listener, Karen, how to balance the books, so to speak, by taking some withdrawals of her own. He has some surprising tips for how to restrain yourself from swooping in to save the day when it would be better to let them figure it out.

The Savvy Psychologist's Quick and Dirty Tips for Better Mental Health
567. There's a voice in your head that has opinions about everything you do — and most of them are unkind. It replays your mistakes. It pre-edits your ideas before you even say them. It tells you that you're too much, not enough, or both at once. This week Dr. Judy Ho unpacks the inner critic: where it comes from, why it's louder for some people than others, what the neuroscience says about why it's so hard to shut up — and three evidence-based tools to change your relationship with it for good.Have a mental health question?

In Cold War Britain, a secret propaganda department saw its list of targets and tactics widen. Personnel inside the Information Research Department went beyond forgeries, fakes, and plants, conducting bold impersonations to smear critics and stoke tensions among foes. The team, which consisted of refugees, ex-journalists, and even daughters of aristocrats, hatched a slew of audacious operations across Europe, Africa, and the Caribbean. They also had their own internal dramas. Author Rory Cormac pored over thousands of recently declassified files to uncover and chronicle their work in his book Fakers: A Top-Secret Tale of Phantoms and Forgeries on the Disinformation Front Line.

Michigan's biggest challenges aren't neatly separated into “economy” over here and “health care” over there. From the 2026 Mackinac Policy Conference, we sit down with Representative Bill G. Schuette of Michigan's 95th District to connect the dots between population growth, good jobs, education outcomes, and what families experience when the health system is hard to afford.We talk about what he's hearing from constituents who want high-quality care without the constant worry of the bill that follows. That leads us into the real-world impact of regional health systems like MyMichigan Health: not only as a major employer and economic driver, but as a lifeline for rural communities where access can depend on whether a hospital is close enough to serve people quickly and consistently.Then we get practical. Schuette points to medical debt as a serious problem that can put a home or car at risk after an unexpected emergency, and he shares why Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) and a stronger focus on preventive care can help families manage costs before a crisis hits. We also touch on the difficulty of passing policy in divisive times and why assuming good intent is still a necessary starting point if Michigan wants solutions that last.If you care about Michigan health care policy, hospital access, rural health, and smarter affordability ideas, you'll get a clear, grounded perspective here.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of CosmicRX Radio, Tasha Beg and Madi Murphy explore the cosmic significance of recent and upcoming astrological events, including the full moon in Aquarius, the lunar cycles, and the influence of planetary alignments on societal and personal transformation. They discuss how understanding these patterns can help us navigate change with grace and insight.Tasha Beg is an evolutionary astrologer, intuitive storyteller, and pop culture pundit. A graduate of Wellesley College with a degree in Economics and Middle Eastern Studies, Tasha spent nearly a decade in finance, eventually rising to Vice President of Institutional Sales. However, a profound personal awakening during her Saturn Return led her to leave the corporate world in 2022 to fully dedicate her life to the sacred language of the cosmos. When she isn't analyzing soul plans for clients, she moonlights as "The Pop Astrologist," analyzing celebrity culture and forecasting cosmic weather through her weekly Substack newsletter.
In this week's Stansberry Investor Hour, Dan welcomes Rick Rule back to the show. Rick is the president and CEO of Rule Investment Media, which boasts more than 28,000 subscribers on Substack. With nearly 50 years of experience managing investments, primarily in the natural resources sector, Rick is an authority in the field. Rick kicks things off by providing his long-term view on oil and gas as commodities, as well as his view on oil and gas stocks. He says that while the price of oil could temporarily decline if the conflict in the Middle East reaches a permanent resolution, current prices could be a glimpse of what's in store within the next four years. And according to Rick, many oil and gas companies are "cannibalizing" themselves by directing money away from reinvesting in their businesses and into dividends and share buybacks, which will impact production in the long term. (0:00) Next, Rick shares his disdain for how government spending and interference have impacted both taxpayers and investors. He personally wrote an e-mail to President Donald Trump to inform him about one of the largest copper deposits in the world just sitting around. It sits on U.S. soil, but we have done nothing to begin production due to regulations. Rick then shares advice for listeners who want to invest during the oil shortage. (22:00) Finally, Rick explains why "stingy" dividends are beneficial to investors. He goes further and reveals why capital-intensive companies should reinvest in their projects and illustrates why one Brazilian company is set up to disappoint investors who bought shares due to absurdly high dividends. Rick then states that institutional investors have been wrong about oil and gas. Many activists have predicted that fossil fuels will no longer be desired and will soon die out. On the contrary, with the growing need for energy, demand will continue to endure. (37:20)
Grace & Grit Podcast: Helping Women Everywhere Live Happier, Healthier and More Fit Lives
I wrote The Consistency Code to help people live more consistently. But here is what I have learned: consistency toward what? Before the principles mean anything, you have to answer that question. In this episode I make the case that getting radically clear on your values and standards is not optional. It is the only foundation from which meaningful consistency can actually be built. Without it, you are being disciplined toward things that were never truly yours to begin with. You are chasing rainbows. I also share the questions worth sitting with to start building a code that is genuinely yours at this age and stage of life. Not someone else's definition of health or success. Yours. This episode is also a direct invitation to join me on Substack, where every Tuesday I go live in something called The Code, a behind-the-scenes look at how I apply these principles in my own life in real time.

Sleep Story for Insomnia — The Hound of the Baskervilles, Chapter 5: Three Broken Threads | Books at Bedtime Drift off to sleep with a classic bedtime story. If insomnia has you lying awake, this gentle, slow-paced reading is designed to quieten a racing mind and carry you softly into deep, restful sleep. Tonight, Books at Bedtime continues Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's The Hound of the Baskervilles with Chapter 5 — Three Broken Threads. Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson return to the Northumberland Hotel, where Sir Henry Baskerville is in a state over a missing boot. A bearded stranger has been following them through London. A telegram is sent to Devonshire to test whether Barrymore is truly at his post. And a cab driver named John Clayton delivers a piece of news that leaves Holmes quite speechless. Three threads. All of them broken before the evening is out. You do not need to follow the story. You do not need to remember a word of it. Let the voice become background — a warm, familiar presence in the dark — and let sleep arrive in its own time. This is a public domain classic, read aloud for relaxation and sleep by Martin Hewlett, host of the Calming Anxiety podcast and creator of Coffee Break for the Soul. No sudden music. No jarring edits. Just a calm voice, a good story, and permission to stop thinking. Perfect as a sleep aid, for insomnia, night-time anxiety, long journeys, or any evening when your mind refuses to settle. Sleep well, my friend. In everything you do — be kind.

After graduating during the pandemic, Jack turned an interest in investing into a thriving online platform that led to a book deal with Penguin and a career in venture capital. In this episode, he shares lessons from winning—and losing—money in the stock market, building an audience from scratch, and why creating content can unlock opportunities far beyond direct income. On this episode we talk about: Jack's early investing journey, including turning $6,000 into $400,000—and the lessons that came with it Why losing money early can make you a smarter long-term investor How starting a Substack newsletter led to a book deal and a career in venture capital The power of building an audience through authentic content and social media Why content creation has become a competitive advantage in venture capital Top 3 Takeaways Experience is the best financial teacher. Making mistakes early in your investing journey helps build the judgment needed to make smarter decisions later in life. Build your own platform instead of waiting for permission. Jack created his own newsletter after being turned down by media companies, which ultimately opened bigger doors than a traditional writing job. Content creates opportunities beyond revenue. A strong online presence can attract investors, founders, employers, and business opportunities that far outweigh the direct income from publishing.

Last October, famed coder Andrej Karpathy called AI agents “slop.” Two months later he completely reversed his view, calling agents “alien tools” that are “rocking the profession.”He was far from alone in his whiplash. Six months ago, host Rob Wiblin recorded a video explaining why so many AI experts had longer timelines to AGI than a year earlier. By the time he clicked publish, another huge vibe shift was well underway. Evidence of AI acceleration has piled up since:Models now complete software engineering tasks that would take human professionals a full day — improving faster than our measurements can even keep up. Anthropic's revenue is growing at an annualised 8,400%, a trend so steep it would hit the whole world's GDP in 2028 if it continued.AI models are making breakthroughs in famous mathematics puzzles.And according to Anthropic, Claude now writes 80% of their code and is itself a key contributor to making itself smarter. While legitimately impressive, Rob isn't entirely sold. Going through each point carefully he finds this evidence is less decisive than it looks at first glance.And key gaps remain, such as models struggling with complex, real-world tasks. He tours the odd experiments that remain our best attempts to measure that gap: vending machine simulators, an “AI Village” that organises live events, and a real cafe and shop where AI managers are left to do their best handling staff, suppliers, and government paperwork on their own.Rob argues that the nature of the gap between clean and messy work is one of the four biggest unresolved questions in AGI forecasting.In today's piece he explains that, the three other key disagreements between AGI bulls and bears, the seven big pieces of evidence we've gotten about AGI timelines in 2026, and his updated timelines to AGI.Links to learn more, video, and full transcript: https://80k.info/2026-timelines This episode was written and recorded before OpenAI's AI agents hacked Hugging Face.

Join Monica & Nate as they break down the plan laid out by Cass Sunstein & Adrien Vermeule in the paper Conspiracy Theories. In that paper, these two deep state lifetime operatives lay out the concept of cognitive infiltration which intentionally attempts to derail and delegitimize movements that want to know the truth about government operations. Given my recent work on Adrien Vermeule (see Christianity as Controlled Opposition through Cognitive Infiltration on Apple Podcasts or Substack) who is taking this concept one step further, I'd say this topic is as timely as ever.

What does it really cost to "get chosen" in the art world, and when does it make more sense to bypass the gatekeepers and bet on yourself? In this episode, we welcome back Sharone Halevy and Alex Mitow from The Superfair for an honest, unfiltered conversation about what art fairs actually are and why they matter for artists in 2026 and beyond. We strip away the smoke and mirrors of traditional gallery representation to talk about the financial realities nobody likes to admit out loud. From spending $6,000 on shipping for a dream international show only to surrender a 50% commission and fund your own travel, to Alex's story of sleeping in a Paris basement for three weeks while losing thousands on an exhibition that looked incredible on paper, we get real about the true price of "exposure". We also unpack why an art fair is one of the most powerful, concentrated feedback engines an artist can access, where a sale is just one small piece of the long-term value. We break down how to overcome the fear of representing yourself in a booth, how to turn casual visitors into loyal collectors, and why owning your narrative, your collector relationships, and your proceeds is worth more than waiting for permission. Plus, Sharone and Alex share an exciting look at what is next for The Superfair, including new fairs launching across the country. In This Episode: The Core of an Art Fair: What an art fair really is and the evolving role it plays for independent artists today. Beyond the Sale: Why real-time, in-person feedback at a fair is one of the most valuable career assets you can build. The Unspoken Costs of Gallery Shows: The reality of shipping fees, 50% commission cuts, and self-funded travel for international exhibitions. When to Be Paid vs. When to Invest: Be Paid: When a commercial business (like a restaurant, hotel, TV placement, or corporate collection) uses your artwork to enhance its own brand or revenue. Invest: When you are actively building your own collector community, retaining buyer contact information, and keeping 100% of your proceeds. Booth Strategy: Practical ways to overcome self-representation anxiety and turn casual passersby into long-term collectors. Dismantling Art World Gatekeeping: Why nobody "knows everything" about art, and why owning your story matters more than traditional validation. What's Next for The Superfair: Upcoming national launches and how artists can get involved this year.

Welcome to another episode of our Summer Sessions! Every August, we take a short break from our usual news roundups and deep dives to bring you lighter, conversational, and debate-style episodes. These are designed to be enjoyed while you're out on a summer walk, driving, or taking a well-deserved break from work. In this second episode of the series, Al Elliott and Leanne Elliott are joined by author, speaker, and host of the Unbehaved podcast, Meghan French Dunbar. Together, they put some of the biggest workplace behaviours, leadership advice, and organisational trends to the test in a fast-paced game of Workplace Red Flag or Green Flag? From unlimited PTO and salary transparency to reception wall values and office dogs, we debate the unwritten rules of work—and challenge whether the things we accept as "normal" are actually helping or hurting workplace culture. Topics We Debate in This Episode: Unlimited Holiday: A genuine employee perk, or a trap that leads to taking less time off? Values on the Wall: Inspiration, or a clear sign of corporate virtue signaling? Salary Transparency: A green flag for pay equity, or a recipe for workplace chaos? Workplace Tropes: What do office dogs with email addresses, "we're like a family" statements, and founder-led interviews really say about a company?
Stefanos Sifandos returns for his second conversation on the podcast, and this one takes us even deeper. Stefanos is a relationship educator, speaker, and author of Tuned In & Turned On, and together we get into the difference between closeness and true intimacy, why safety within yourself has to come before safety in a relationship, and how the couples who make it are the ones who stay a team instead of turning on each other. He breaks down his concept of "intelligent hope" versus blind hope versus faith, and why growth — not comfort — is the real point of any relationship. We also get into his marriage, his own edges as a husband and father, and why acknowledgment might be the most underrated tool for change. This one's for anyone ready to risk being hurt in the name of real love.In this episode:The difference between a couple that shares closeness and a couple that shares true intimacyWhy self-intimacy and self-trust have to come before relational intimacyHow to turn conflict and triggers into growth instead of divisionWhat "intelligent hope" means and how it's different from blind hope or faithWhy being unbreakable — not unshakable — is the real goal in relationshipsThe power of acknowledgment and reflection in creating lasting change⭐️YOUR SUPPORT MATTERS: Please: Subscribe + leave 5⭐️Star rating +review HEREEnjoy! xRxFIND ME ON:️INSTAGRAMSUBSTACKYOUTUBEXTHREADSFIND STEFANOS ON:IGWEBBOOK

Okay.. our top story this week: XX I want to talk about Cookie Queens! It might not sound like a hard news story.. but It's my show and I can't wait to watch this. This move follows four Girl Scouts ages 5-12 during cookie season. One of the girls has type 1 – they don't mention it in the trailer, but you can see her omnipod. Here's a clip: Start the very beginning and stop after "I want to be a supreme court justice." (stop after the "oh..laughter" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nnSQS43Eil8 Viewers meet Ara from San Diego, CA (5), Shannon Elizabeth from El Paso, TX (8), Nikki from Chino, CA (9), and Olive from Charlotte, NC (12). Ara has Type 1 diabetes and is shown taking insulin, refilling her pump before bed, and determining with her dad how to sample the cookies she's selling while keeping her blood sugar levels safe. Thumbs down to the Hollywood reporter dot com. In their review they say.. "if this film were itself a baked good, Ara would need to be careful because one bite could cause hyperglycemia or even diabetic ketoacidosis. It's just that sweet." Cookie Queens comes out this month. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-reviews/cookie-queens-review-prince-harry-meghan-markle-girl-scouts-1236484555/ trailer: XX Supply issues for Lantus SoloStar pens being acknowledged by Sanofi. The company says it's experiencing "a period of intermittent supply due to increased demand. The company said the increase in demand is being driven by "broader market dynamics," but did not provide additional details. Sanofi said the situation is temporary and is expected to improve over the coming weeks. The company said Lantus U-100 vials and Toujeo U-300, which contain the same active ingredient, remain available. https://www.wral.com/news/local/common-insulin-pen-faces-supply-issues-amid-rising-demand-july-23-2026/ XX The University of Alabama at Birmingham startup TIXiMED Inc. has launched the next phase of clinical testing for a novel oral therapy for Type 1. For now called TIX100, a small-molecule drug designed to inhibit a protein linked to pancreatic beta-cell loss and diabetes progression. The new double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled study will evaluate the drug's safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics. Researchers will enroll 18 healthy participants across three dose cohorts at a single United States study site. Participants will receive either TIX100 or a placebo twice daily for 28 days, followed by a seven-day follow-up period. Six participants making up the first cohort have been successfully enrolled thus far. In addition to its potential use in Type 1 diabetes, TIX100 may have applications in Type 2 diabetes and obesity. A recent study found that the drug prevented weight regain and preserved lean muscle mass after discontinuation of GLP-1 therapies in preclinical models. https://www.uab.edu/news/research-innovation/startup-advances-novel-oral-type-1-diabetes-therapy-to-next-phase-of-human-testing XX Researchers at the University of California San Diego say they have developed and validated a Continuous Health Analyzing Ring Module (CHARM), a compact, fully integrated wearable smart ring capable of continuous real-time monitoring of multiple biomarkers in sweat. The wearable device can simultaneously measure up to four biomarkers, including glucose, ketone, uric acid, lactate, ascorbic acid, and alcohol, to provide real-time insights into metabolic health. The study is published in Nature Communications. They say CHARM device contains all necessary biomarker sensors, low-power electronics, and a flexible battery. The left compartment of the device is designed to draw sweat passively using an osmotic hydrogel, a soft polymer that creates a pressure gradient to pull fluid from the skin painlessly. The sweat is then analyzed by multiplexed electrochemical sensor arrays within the same compartment, leading to simultaneous and real-time tracking of four biomarkers at a time. The right compartment of the device contains a flexible zinc-silver oxide rechargeable battery that supplies power for up to 12 hours of operation between charges. Biomarker information generated through sensors is wirelessly transferred to a connected Bluetooth-enabled device for real-time display The findings indicated that the device performed well in initial temperature, cytotoxicity, and on-body compatibility tests. It also demonstrated high analytical accuracy in preliminary studies involving healthy participants and individuals with type 1 diabetes, highlighting its potential for non-invasive metabolic monitoring. The calculated estimated sweat-based blood glucose concentration showed a mean absolute relative difference of approximately 13.7% against its corresponding blood concentration values. The device needs further validation in diverse clinical settings and across large diabetic cohorts. https://www.news-medical.net/news/20260727/Prototype-smart-ring-tracks-multiple-sweat-biomarkers.aspx XX Hotter weather and rising temps appear to increase the short term risk for low blood sugar in adults with type 1. An analysis of more than 32 million continuous glucose monitor (CGM) readings from nearly 700 adults with T1D in the UK showed a 26% greater risk for hypoglycemia at a temperature of 25 °C (77 °F) than at 13 °C (55.4 °F). Hypoglycemia was defined as a glucose level < 3.9 mmol/L (70 mg/dL). The study included 679 individuals with T1D and 32,966,282 CGM readings collected between February 23, 2017, and August 8, 2024. Participants had a mean age of 46.4 years and a mean T1D duration of 23.7 years. The researchers observed strong seasonal patterns, with lower odds of hypoglycemia in late winter and early spring, followed by a peak during the summer. The lowest risk occurred on Mondays. The odds then increased over the course of the week and peaked toward the weekend, with a significant odds ratio of 1.14 on Saturdays compared with Mondays. Increases in hypoglycemia were observed during both hot and cold weather, but the association was stronger for heat.

More than 200 members now calling for two ADA leaders to resign. In response, the ADA delivered its own message Tuesday, expressing appreciation for members' patience while a report is prepared. The resignation demand, sent last week in an open letter to the ADA board of directors, calls for the removal of CEO Charles Henderson and chief scientific and medical officer Rita Kalyani. It also urges "an independent investigation into the events of the 2026 Scientific Sessions in New Orleans, a full apology to the five colleagues removed from the meeting, and the restoration of editorial independence at Diabetes Care," an ADA scientific journal. https://www.statnews.com/2026/07/28/american-diabetes-association-fallout-researchers-expulsion/ XX XX Still to come, , a new link between diabetes and dementia, device updates, and why you might want to start rooting for the Red Sox.. XX New study says that people diagnosed with type 1 diabetes (T1D) before the age of 10 years had a 37% higher risk of developing all-cause dementia later in life than those diagnosed between ages of 18 and 30 years. These researchers used a Swedish national register of 43,440 individuals with T1D (mean age at cohort entry, 33 years; 44% women) Worth noting a couple of things.. the mean age in this study was 33 – so the people who were diagnosed under the age of ten would not have had access to current technology – no CGMs or AID systems. And while the study says it's 37% higher for the younger group, the actual rate was still very low. As always, I'll link to the study so you can learn more. My obvious bias here to look for a silver lining because I have a son who diagnosed with T1D at age 2. https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/type-1-diabetes-onset-before-age-10-tied-higher-risk-2026a1000pir XX Researchers have developed a machine learning model that uses routine clinical information to detect diabetes and distinguish between type 1, type 2, prediabetes, and diabetes caused by pancreatic disease. The model performed well in early testing, but researchers say it still needs to be validated in independent patient groups before it could be considered for use in diabetes screening or clinical care. It did not assess clinical utility, patient outcomes, or quality of life. https://www.news-medical.net/news/20260729/Researchers-train-AI-to-detect-diabetes-and-assign-four-diagnostic-labels.aspx XX Trinity Biotech and Latch Medical are teaming up to explore combining CGM with precision drug delivery technology for diabetes, obesity, and other metabolic conditions. The companies hope real-time glucose data from Trinity's CGM+ sensor could eventually help guide more personalized treatment decisions and medication delivery. Trinity's CGM+ is still in development, with a pivotal clinical trial planned for later this year. https://www.drugdeliverybusiness.com/trinity-biotech-collab-cgm-drug-delivery/ XX The FDA selects Dexcom as the first participant in a new digital health pilot that will exempt certain digital health devices from FDA premarket authorization requirements while collecting real world data through a complementary Medicare program. Dexcom, plans to implement an artificial intelligence-enabled glucose health program through the pilot. The program is intended to help screen for prediabetes and Type 2 diabetes. The company plans to integrate data from its sensors, including its prescription G7 CGM and its over-the-counter Stelo device, along with contextual health information such as nutrition, physical activity, sleep and stress. The FDA announced plans for the Technology-Enabled Meaningful Patient Outcomes, or TEMPO, pilot last year amid a broader push for adoption of digital health and wearables. It coincides with a new program by the CMS to fund the use of digital technologies for managing chronic conditions. https://www.healthcaredive.com/news/fda-names-dexcom-as-first-participant-in-digital-health-pilot/826215/ XX Medicare and Medicare Advantage beneficiaries now have access to the new MiniMed Flex insulin pump. Beneficiaries can now access the MiniMed Flex and its latest sensor portfolio, which currently includes the Simplera Sync sensor, a disposable, all-in-one sensor with easy two-step insertion. The company plans to roll it out with the Instinct sensor, made by Abbott, later this summer. It also added Abbott's dual glucose-ketone sensor (still investigational in the U.S.) to its portfolio this year. Flex picked up FDA clearance in March and the company announced the initial commercial rollout of the pump last month. https://www.drugdeliverybusiness.com/minimed-flex-pump-now-available-medicare/ XX Eli Lilly expands it's partnership with Resilience – the makers of the KwikPen device. Through the investment, Resilience will significantly increase U.S. production of Lilly's KwikPen injectable device for diabetes and obesity medicines. In February, Lilly won FDA approval for Zepbound in a multidose KwikPen device. The product includes four doses of the GLP-1/GIP receptor agonist, providing a month of treatment for obesity or overweight in one device. Resilience expects the KwikPen capacity expansion to create at least 400 jobs in the Cincinnati area. https://www.biospace.com/deals/lilly-and-resilience-invest-750m-in-diabetes-and-obesity-drug-device-supply XX Alex Cooper – the host of the top podcast Call her Daddy – announced she's been diagnosed with gestational diabetes. "When I got this diagnosis, the first couple days, I was really hard on myself," the 31-year-old admitted. "It felt very isolating, like, as much as my family and my husband and everyone was there for me I just felt like, it's me on an island." She says she found an online community that's been helping. In sharing her experience, she hoped it would alleviate the stress. https://www.eonline.com/news/1434556/pregnant-alex-cooper-shares-isolating-gestational-diabetes-diagnosis XX Several amazing diabetes non profits are vying for big charity dollars from the Boston Red Sox.
