In this episode of the Journal Series, Mechelle shares a journal entry from December 5, 2023 — written after a session in a selenite cave. What she encountered in that healing space was visionary, layered, and quietly one of the most important things she has ever been shown. A heavenly home that turned out to always be hers. A house gone cold and empty — not as loss, but as invitation. A tree with three levels that reframes everything we think we know about darkness, creativity, and worth. A gruff guide named Manning who led her into the dark and walked her right back out into the light. And a room full of women — her mother, her grandmother, Mary Magdalene, the gathered divine feminine — who held a thread and pulled while she twirled free. This episode is for anyone who has ever lived in the middle and wondered if it was enough. For anyone who has bypassed the descent because the light looked easier. For anyone who has needed to be witnessed in release — not fixed, not advised, just held while they moved through it. The roots were always feeding you. You just couldn't see it from up here. In this episode: Why the dark is not lesser — and what it actually produces The dignity of the middle place and the unseen creative life What shadow work actually feels like when you stop running from it How the body learns the shape of release before the mind is ready Four integration questions to carry into your week selenite cave, healing experience, visionary journey, shadow work, divine feminine, inner work, spiritual growth, darkness and light, letting go, release, roots and trunk, tree metaphor, Mary Magdalene, ancestral healing, women's spirituality, somatic release, body wisdom, wholeness, self-belonging, The Wholeness Network, Summer Shorts, Mechelle, wellness podcast, holistic healing, spiritual podcast for women Explore The Wholeness Library App FREE!

AI can help faculty think beyond static course content and toward learning experiences where students practice, reflect, receive feedback, and connect ideas to their own interests. For this June Summer Short, Andrew Everett revisits three conversations about AI and course design. Dr. David Wiley discusses how generative AI may change the future of open educational resources by creating more customized learning conversations. Dr. Rafael Pacheco shares how an AI-powered adaptive learning tool can provide immediate feedback and support students with different levels of preparation. Arthur Takahashi, Jeff Mastromonico, and Andrew also return to the idea of vibe coding and how faculty can start small with AI-assisted building through announcements, content pages, study guides, and other low-risk course materials. Get free access to more of our content, including the Continuing the Conversation Activity, by visiting our show page for more. 

This week, we're continuing our Summer Shorts series by answering one of the questions we hear most often: Should we tell our children about marital struggles, broken trust, or even infidelity? We share our own experience of walking through those conversations with our boys after Heather's affair and how those discussions changed as they grew older. When they were young, we focused on what they needed to know. As they matured, we were able to share more of our story and help them understand not only what happened, but what God had done in the years that followed. Every family is different, and there is no one-size-fits-all answer. But we've generally found that leaning toward honesty is healthier than carrying secrets. When children see parents acknowledge failures, take responsibility, and pursue healing, they gain a front-row seat to God's redemption at work. In this episode, we talk about age-appropriate conversations, protecting children from adult burdens, and how sharing your story can create a culture of honesty that impacts your family for generations.

Welcome to #SundaysatTCAB! We are starting a new sermon series for the summer today - Summer Shorts. We'll be looking at some of the shortest verses in the Bible and unpacking the BIG lessons found in each of them. Today, we start the series with John 11:35 that says, "Jesus wept." Why did Jesus weep? What can we learn from His response, and how does it apply to us today? We're glad you're joining TCAB online, and hope this message encourages you in your walk with Christ.

This week we're celebrating a huge milestone—250 episodes of The Redeemed Marriage Podcast! To mark the occasion, we're answering a question about one of the most practical tools we've ever shared: the Heart Talk. What do you do when you're trying to open up, but your spouse gets defensive, starts explaining themselves, or turns the conversation back to their own feelings? In this episode, we talk about why the Heart Talk works only when both spouses honor the process. We share three big mistakes we've seen derail communication—defensiveness, fixing, and giving a quick apology just to end the conversation—and why those responses often leave your spouse feeling unseen and unheard. We also discuss the difference between listening to understand and listening to respond. One of the most important lessons we've learned is that you don't have to agree with your spouse's feelings to acknowledge that those feelings are real. After nearly 15 years of rebuilding and growing together, this simple tool is still one of the most valuable ways we connect. If your conversations keep going in circles or you feel like communication has stalled, this episode will encourage you to slow down, go back to the basics, and keep practicing the habits that create emotional intimacy.

This week in our Summer Shorts series, we're answering a hard but honest question that so many couples wrestle with after betrayal: “Once a cheater, always a cheater?” We talk openly about the labels people place on you after failure and how easy it is to believe your worst moment will define the rest of your life. For us, this conversation isn't just theoretical. We've lived through the judgment, the lost friendships, the whispers, the social media comments, and the long process of rebuilding trust one step at a time. In this episode, we share why trust and redemption are not the same thing, how trust is rebuilt slowly through consistency and honesty, and why real change is actually possible through Christ. We also talk about the importance of surrounding yourself with people who believe in restoration instead of permanently defining people by their past. If you've ever felt trapped by shame, afraid of what people think about your story, or wondered if healing is truly possible after betrayal, we hope this conversation reminds you that your sin is not your identity and your worst failure does not get the final word.

This week's episode is a special one for us. We just walked through one of the most meaningful weeks of our lives as we celebrated our son Luke's wedding, and we are incredibly grateful for all of the prayers, encouragement, and kind messages so many of you have sent our family. During the wedding weekend, someone asked us about a part of the ceremony where Rusty talked about the difference between a contract and a covenant in marriage. A contract says, “if then…” while a covenant says, “even if.” That simple distinction led to a much deeper conversation about commitment, restoration, and the generational impact of fighting for your marriage. In this Summer Shorts episode, we reflect on some of the emotions we experienced during the wedding ceremony, remembering where our marriage once was and realizing how different our family story could have been if we had walked away years ago. We also share about the letters Luke and Kamryn gave us before the wedding and why those moments reminded us that healing in marriage doesn't just affect two people. It impacts generations. If your marriage feels difficult right now, we hope this episode reminds you that staying faithful to your covenant can create a legacy you may not even be able to see yet.

In this week's Summer Shorts episode, we answer a powerful question from one of our listeners: what would Heather have done if the roles had been reversed and Rusty had been the one who was unfaithful? It leads to a really honest conversation about who Heather was spiritually fifteen years ago compared to who she is today, and the difference between simply knowing about God and truly depending on Him. Heather shares openly that years ago, her response likely would have been driven by bitterness, pride, and selfishness, while today she sees how God's grace has transformed the way she views pain, forgiveness, and healing. We also talk about the danger of believing “that could never happen to us,” why every marriage needs healthy boundaries and transparency, and how quickly isolation and pride can lead us into vulnerable places. Whether your marriage is in a season of healing, growth, or simply needing stronger connection, we hope this conversation reminds you that none of us are above struggle, God's grace is still enough, and redemption is always possible.

Welcome back to the final episode of the summer shorts/season longs series with us on the Upland Disciple Podcast. In the final episode we dive deep into dog conditioning and all that goes along with that. We cover roading, free running (how they are best done as complementary parts of one whole program), swimming, nutrition, supplements, heat, and how to work on mental endurance in fatigue through training while conditioning. It is really a great conversation, and one that often gets overlooked or underutilized as we await next years opener, letting Fido chill on the couch and hope he can "work himself into shape" during the season. Give it a listen, take notes, and we hope it gives you a lot to work with this offseason in preparation for 2026 bird season or trial season!  Resources: Perfection Kennels (Jon & Jessica Hann) web - www.perfectionkennel.com Insta - @perfection_kennels Facebook - @perfectionkennel   Smith Kennels (Ronnie & Susanna Smith) web - www.smithkennels.com Insta - @smithkennelsbirddogs Facebook - @smithkennels   The Method Dog Training (Sonny Piekarz & Jordan Wells) web - www.haycreekkennels.com | www.jwellskennels.com Insta - @the_method_dog_training Facebook - @themethoddogtraining   The Hickox Method (George Hickox) web - www.georgehickox.com Insta - @georgehickoxbirddogs Facebook - @georgehickox

Welcome back to episode 10 of season 3 at the Upland Disciple Podcast. We continue on with our summer shorts series this week, diving in to the topic of handling. An often under discussed and under appreciated part of bird dog development and hunting/trialing is the working together of dog and handler in the field. This doesn't just mean following your dog around the field but being able to cast your dog, bend them in the field from objective to objective or cover to cover. It means not hacking at your dog but communicating with them via cues, body language, and direction...all built in your training time before you get to real life scenarios! Handling is also one of those parts of training that is as much about you the handler as it is the dog. Being able to read a dog, put them in the best place to succeed, and have a partnership that overcomes tough situations, tough conditions, and new environments. With that being said handling is an art NOT a science, and is often caught more than it is taught. So tune in and listen to the experts lend their experience, advice, tips, tricks, and training styles to develop a good handle in the field!  

Welcome back to episode 9 of the Summer Shorts series. This week we take a deep dive with our four Pro Trainers into the topic of Honoring or Backing. Whether for safety, etiquette, or more birds in the bag, honoring is one of most important skills we can teach our dogs. Nobody wants to hunt with the guy whose dogs blow up everyone else's points! As we dive into the four different methods, you will find a baseline of similarity in the desired outcome, with unique approaches on how to train honoring. Some use launchers, others throw birds. Some use ecollar, others prefer no pressure in this training skill. Whatever your cup of tea may be, take a listen and I promise you will be able to take something if not many things away from each pro's method of teaching a dog to honor or back!! Sit back and enjoy!!

Welcome back to the 8th installment of the summer shorts series!! In this episode we dive deep into the trained retrieve. We discuss shaping a natural retrieve, when to train the retrieve in the dogs development, and a number of "fixes" for a poor or lacking retrieve. The 4 pros give us 4 different takes on the retrieve training process, all with their own unique twists, YET with many similar philosopical and foundational elements brought back from puppy development! Buckle up and enjoy another episode with us!!

Welcome back to the 7th installment of the "Summer Shorts" series, which Jake correctly renamed the "Season Long" series in jest. In this episode we dive back in with our four pro trainers/methods to discuss Recall & Heel. This is an incredibly fun dive with some similarities (such as going back to foundational training to teach a new command) as well some uniqueness from each method. From method to timing and philosophical approach these 4 trainers/methods have much to offer and consider as you look at your process of development your bird dog. When should I teach recall? When should I teach here? How should I teach it? More control early on or let the pupper build an intense fire of prey drive before moving on to recall and/or heel? All of these and more questions are asked and answered as we work through and discuss the merits of each individual method! Hope you enjoy the episode and come back for more next week!

Ben Schwartz, MD, MBA, wrote an article recently, and yeah, he makes a really compelling point. Dr. Schwartz wrote, “Ultimately, the most successful care models are those that create value inherently. The goal isn't simply cost arbitrage; it's creating a sustainable system that makes value attainable. Care delivery innovation is about more than optimizing for VC [venture capital] returns or maximizing operational efficiency.” For a full transcript of this episode, click here. If you enjoy this podcast, be sure to subscribe to the free weekly newsletter to be a member of the Relentless Tribe. That mention of value and how to achieve it for real—like, actually create a care model that delivers value inherently—is a great segue to introduce the show this week. It's a continuation of our mission/margin theme, and this week, we're talking about the margin part of the “no margin, no mission” cliché. So, taking this from the top, last week—and go back and listen to that show if you have not yet (and you can listen to both of these parts in no particular order; you do you)—but last week, we talked mission. That part about value and creating value inherently? The tie-in here to mission and margin could be a value equation, really. Like, mission divided by margin is how you calculate the value delivered (less carrier spread), but that's a whole other show with Cynthia Fisher (EP457). So, let me introduce my guest this week, who was also my guest last week: Dan Greenleaf, CEO of Duly, which is a multispecialty group in Chicago. So, last week Dan and I talked mission, as I said; but today we're talking margin, which is, again, gonna be the denominator of so many value equations. Last week in that mission show, quick review (or spoiler alert, depending on the order in which you may be listening to these shows), but last week, Dan Greenleaf broke mission, Duly's mission, into four quadrants. The four quadrants of mission being affordability, access, consumer experience, and quality. In this conversation today, the margin conversation, Dan Greenleaf emphasizes that achieving these four quadrants reduces friction for patients and clinicians that leads to not only better care outcomes but also financial sustainability (ie, margin). Margin can therefore be a function of mission. And again, as Dr. Ben Schwartz put it, “Ultimately, the most successful care models are those that create value inherently.” So, here we go. To be noted with one big fat fluorescent highlighter marker, a big part of this mission that comes up over and over again last week, it's about making prices reasonable and predictable and transparent for patients. Financial toxicity is a thing. Financial toxicity not only is clinical toxicity when so many people are delaying needed care. And look, I don't often quote Marjorie Taylor Greene, but recently she was in the New York Times and was quoted as saying, “The cost of health care is killing people.” This is what we should be focusing on. I just read the other day that one-third of adults in this country are currently delaying or forgoing care due to cost. One-third! Not one-third of low income or something like that. One-third of adults in this country are delaying or forgoing care due to fear of cost. In today's world, affordability and price transparency is part of what customer experience means—not just, like, lemon water in the waiting room. This is what struck me the most about the conversation from last week. But wait. Does affordable for patients spell trouble when it comes to the margin part of the operation? Will an affordability mission wreak havoc on margin? Is this business model doomed? Is there even a successful care model that creates value inherently that is sustainable? Such a good question, which is why I ask it to Dan Greenleaf right out of the gate. So, just to sum this all up in the conversation that follows, Dan Greenleaf gets into the challenges and the strategies involved in balancing mission-driven healthcare with financial realities. Duly's approach to being fiscally solid includes, well, I'm just gonna say many of the same types of efficiency things to maintain and retain margin that other more mainstream health systems might deploy. But I'd say there's a really striking difference in the why and the how. And the impact of this why and how is striking when you look at Duly's prices and the impact it has on its overall community. So, even though it's using similar types of strategies, maybe, as big consolidated health systems or other organizations, the impact and what it all adds up to is, again, very, very different. This is what I mean. At health systems, and maybe my head is just lost in a couple of anecdotal bits of evidence right now, but I just had two conversations in the past two days with physician leaders at big health systems (different ones), but both of these individuals said variations of the same theme. And if you wanna picture the scene, picture the saddest expressions, and one of them had a martini and the other one had a big-boy glass of wine. And both of them said, Look, my organization has lost sight of patient care, but also my organization has lost sight of, like, financial goals in most parts of the organization. All I seem to do all day is play politics with a whole lot of middle managers or even senior leaders jockeying for position and having turf wars within these sprawling bureaucracies. These are just great people who are trying so hard to do the right thing and are just struggling to find the foothold to do so within their own organizations. So, let's just say it was refreshing to hear Dan Greenleaf talk about an alignment of incentives and hook the margin up with the mission train in a really tight way throughout the entire organization. And to do this really well—achieve that mission/margin alignment across the whole entire organization—Dan underscores the value of clinician involvement in leadership and having, as I just said, aligned incentives with clinical teams. Keep in mind, this is the margin show, where clinical leadership came up and the number of doctors on their board and the level of physician ownership in the organization. I'm highlighting that this is the margin show here because usually so-called dyad leadership with physicians in leadership roles only comes up in mission conversations, right? Like, in situations where somebody wants the doctor to be the defender of mission and the battle to keep the MBAs in check. And I say this as the comic book stereotype, obviously. But yeah, it's true often enough. But then we have Dan, who is thinking about clinicians who have, again, aligned incentives across the organization so you don't have your physician leaders day drinking while I'm sitting across from them finding myself quoting Sun Tzu The Art of War and helping them craft the perfect PowerPoint slide to weaponize a reorg. Honestly, in my experience, there's no better way to waste metric assloads of money than in an organization where personal power grabs start to supersede anything that smells vaguely like an organizational imperative. And again, these just big bureaucracies at many health systems … yeah, too big not to fail at this is often the way of it. Then lastly, I grilled Dan Greenleaf about capital partners and how to manage to achieve private equity (PE) funding, where there's support for a model that delivers inherent value—a model that benefits both patients and providers as well as investors. And I'm saying this, keeping all of the things that Yashaswini Singh, PhD, said in that episode (EP474) about private equity a few weeks ago. Go back and listen to that. And by the way, Dan Greenleaf in this show has roughly the same ideas as Tom X. Lee, MD (EP445), founder of One Medical and Galileo told me, and also Rushika Fernandopulle, MD (EP460), founder of Iora. Great minds think alike. So, should figuring out how to work with PE be a topic of interest, there you go. Listen to my conversation today with Dan Greenleaf and then go back and listen to those other two shows. Dan Greenleaf, CEO of Duly, my guest today, has been in healthcare for 30 years. He's a six-time CEO: three public companies and has also run three companies backed by private equity and thus very aware of the many different funding mechanisms that exist in the marketplace. This podcast is sponsored by Aventria Health Group, but I do just wanna mention that Duly offered Relentless Health Value some financial support, which we truly appreciate.

Welcome back to the 6th episode of the summer shorts series with us. This week we dive into the topic of steadiness or staunchness training for your dog. This is getting into more advanced training and often shows our limitations as amateur or "non-pro" trainers and handlers. While we are often in a hurry to reach benchmarks in limited time before the season arrives, as you will hear in this episode from each of the 4 pros, faster isn't better, better is better. So take your time, listen to this episode a couple of times and jot down some notes! It is an extremely fun and detailed dive from each of the four pros we are studying in this series, and each one of them has a unique style in developing steadiness in a dog, yet all have the same destination in mind, a fully broke dog!! So listen to pod, drop us a like or a follow, and pick up the tips, tricks, and styles that work for you as you work to steady up your pup!!

Welcome back to the summer shorts series. I apologize for the slight delay. Between a wedding I had to do in Tahoe, a bout with covid leading to a weeks long cough that made recording impossible, and then field trials and the opener in Montana, we have been full up on life for a hot second. But we are back!!! In this episode we dive into whoa training. Each method or style has its unique tools for your toolbox and drills for developing a trustworthy whoa in your dog, but all four also share many philosopical things in common: using a known place to start the whoa training process; the use of a belly collar (at least to start); reading the dog and making sure the dog is in a headspace that is composed and eager to learn; etc. We hope you find lots of useful tips, tricks, tools, and drills as you work to whoa train your dog, and for those of you with a young dog or a dog that doesn't have whoa trained completely yet, remember NOT to use the command in the hunting fields this fall until the dog knows what it means and how to win the game of whoa! Happy listening, and blessings and safety as you get hunting or trialing!

In this episode of Summer Shorts, I tackle the expensive mistake of last-minute clothes shopping and why those panic purchases never become wardrobe favorites. I explain the real reasons we find ourselves sweating in fitting rooms at 9 PM (spoiler: it's not just poor planning), why shopping from panic instead of preference leads to ill-fitting, off-brand purchases, and how these one-off items create closet confusion. I share practical strategies for planning ahead, preparing your closet for impromptu special occasions, and embracing that caring about how you look isn't frivolous - it's about living more fully in the life you want.Full show notes and resources: https://youreverydaystyle.com/single-use-outfits

In this episode, Stacey Richter talks with Dr. Stan Schwartz, co-founder of ZERO.health about the tension between mission-driven healthcare and financial incentives within the healthcare system. Highlighting examples like the Comprehensive Primary Care Initiative and other advanced primary care efforts, Schwartz shares insights on how health system economics, particularly the reliance on emergency room admissions, often undermine initiatives aimed at reducing costs and improving patient outcomes.  The discussion delves into the role of employer-sponsored health plans as potential change agents in the healthcare system, given their significant influence over commercially insured patients, who are highly attractive to providers. Dr. Schwartz underscores the importance of aligned financial incentives and collective action among employers to drive meaningful change in healthcare.

In this episode of Summer Shorts, I tackle something that sounds simple but keeps so many women stuck: giving yourself permission to like what you like. I explain why asking "what do WE think?" about your outfits is the wrong question, how focusing on getting style "right" instead of wearing what you love leads to the expensive "should" trap, and why buying clothes you think you should have makes you feel like a style imposter. I share practical exercises to help you identify what you actually love in your closet and start trusting your own taste, because when it comes to style, your opinion is the only one that matters.Full show notes and resources: https://youreverydaystyle.com/only-opinion-matters

What does it actually mean for a wife to submit to her husband? In this episode of their Summer Shorts series, Rusty and Heather take on one of the most sensitive and misunderstood topics in Christian marriage, based on a fantastic listener question. Using Ephesians 5 as a guide, they break down the concept of biblical submission, moving beyond the idea of a simple command or hierarchy. Discover why the context of these verses, including the call for husbands to love their wives as Christ loved the church and the principle of mutual submission to one another, is absolutely essential. This isn't about blind obedience or being a doormat; it's about building a strong, unified team. Rusty shares a husband's responsibility to lead in a way that is worthy of respect, while Heather provides a wife's perspective on what it feels like to be led well. They offer practical examples from their own marriage on how they've learned to navigate this dynamic with love and respect. If you've ever struggled with this passage of scripture or wondered how to apply it to your modern relationship, this conversation will bring clarity, encouragement, and a new perspective on leadership and respect in marriage.

Exploring the Complexities of Pharma Rebates with Ann Lewandowski In this Summer Short episode of Relentless Health Value, host Stacey Richter converses again with Ann Lewandowski about the intricate dynamics of pharmaceutical rebates, or as Lewandowski prefers, post-sale concessions.  The discussion delves into the nuances of these rebates, the impact they have on drug costs, and the hidden consequences for patients and plan sponsors.  They highlight articles and insights by Austin Chelko and Peter Hayes, touching on how rebates can disadvantage the pursuit of lower-cost generics and biosimilars, and can obstruct pharmacogenetic testing that ensures drug efficacy and safety.  The conversation also critiques the opacity of rebates, deemed trade secrets by pharma and PBM companies, and underscores the ethical and financial dilemmas posed by the current rebate-driven system. === LINKS ===
