With breaking news and shocking headlines still happening on a weekly basis, sometimes it's hard to believe that the current war in Ukraine has been going on for more than three years. You may have heard a neighbor or family member asking… why should the United States be involved at all? With so many problems here at home, why should we care about a war on the other side of the world?Well, there's two different ways to answer that question: the humanitarian crisis, and our national security. In this episode, we dive into both. Trump still says he's committed to ending the war. But will he end it in a way that's good for Ukraine and democracy? Or will he end it in a way that's good for Vladimir Putin... and himself? This war is already tragically close to home for kids in Ukraine, and it could be other kids across the world – including ours – that feel it next.So the next time you hear someone ask why the United States should care about this war, you can share this episode and tell them exactly why we should support Ukraine.For a transcript of this episode, please email theswppod@redwine.blue.

Have you ever wondered how the strengths and skills you excel at in one area of your life could be applied to another? In this solo episode, I dive into the concept of transferable skills—those talents and mindsets that we've mastered in one context but often overlook when facing challenges in another. Using real-life examples from my mindshifting practice, I share how clients have taken powerful skills from their professional lives and applied them successfully to their personal lives (and vice versa) for more fulfillment and ease. From the art of prioritization to the nuances of listening, I'll walk you through four insightful stories that highlight the simplicity and brilliance of this approach. Whether you're leading a team at work, nurturing relationships at home, or balancing various life roles, learning to transfer your skills can transform how you handle challenges and opportunities. In this episode, you will learn about: The surprising ease of applying professional skills to personal self-care and well-being how recognizing strengths from one area can solve problems in another why transferring positive patterns can lead to more constructive communication and relationships practical ways to identify and transfer your own skills to improve life balance the importance of spotting unhealthy patterns and shifting them across different life contexts Stay safe and #standwithukraine, Anna Resources: Heima App: https://www.getheima.com/is Listen to my episode with the co-founder of Heima: https://open.spotify.com/episode/7j6Gqj3iWXEG7wVJRUkz1t Join the free yoga classes I teach every Monday and Thursday: https://annaliebel.as.me/lytmorning Book a Mindshifting Intensive: https://annaliebel.as.me/strategycall Support Ukraine: https://u24.gov.ua/

Today, we're diving into the complexities of modern life, society, politics, and the search for meaning with the insightful and thought-provoking David Pakman. In this compelling conversation, Tom and David explore the disconnection and purposelessness many people feel today, and whether religious practices still hold the key to fulfillment. They tackle a broad range of topics, from the increase in suicides to the role of social media pressures, and the evolving significance of religion in the age of scientific understanding. David Pakman provides his perspective on the decline of religious affiliations, the politicization of religion, and the broader societal issues contributing to our current sense of disillusionment. Moreover, they delve into the complex realm of U.S. foreign and domestic policy, debating the country's role as a global policeman, support for Ukraine, and the public's complicated perception of authoritarian figures. The conversation also touches on immigration policies, the aging political leadership in the U.S., and the rising religiosity among certain right-wing figures. As the episode unfolds, you'll hear Pakman's candid views on the cognitive abilities of political figures like Joe Biden and Donald Trump, the ethical imperative of comprehensive immigration reform, and the significant economic contributions of undocumented workers. We wrap up with a thought-provoking discussion on shared values, societal integration, and the importance of tolerance and respect in a diverse world.

On this episode of the MeidasTouch Podcast: The Trump trial continues as day 14 continues to spell trouble for Trump, with the cross-examination of Stormy Daniels backfiring on his legal team. Trump made a few desperate motions during the trial, which were swiftly denied by the judge at the end of the day. Meanwhile, Trump's absence from campaigning raises eyebrows, replaced by a lavish NFT event where he boasts about his mental acuity. Nikki Haley's strong showing in Indiana shows more warning signs for Trump's chances in November. Meanwhile, President Biden's announcement of a $3.3 billion investment from Microsoft in Wisconsin contrasts sharply with Trump's unfulfilled promises, showcasing Biden's commitment to job creation.
