You want his dad to crack the whip, but you're scared to say a word yourself. So how do you light a fire you can't build?Your father-in-law's IRA was supposed to split three ways, until your husband mysteriously vanished from the paperwork, leaving his two sisters holding his third. They're dangling half as a tax-free "gift." Is this an honest estate-planning slip or something with sharper edges — and do you lawyer up?You took the management job everyone swore you were built for. A year in, the title fits like a hot, itchy costume you can't wait to shed. The petty stuff — loud ringtones, an unemptied trash can — wrecks you more than the big problems. Now you're stepping back into less pay and dread. Are you doomed?Recommendation of the Week: In Waves and War — a Netflix documentary trailing former Navy SEALs — guys allergic to anything touchy-feely — as severe PTSD and brain injuries push them toward psychedelic-assisted therapy in vetted clinics. Watching these hardened men crack open is harder to look away from than you'd expect.You beat odds most people never face: a brutal childhood, and a mother whose love always came tangled with chaos and addiction. After years of painstakingly rebuilding things with her, her latest spiral forced you to choose your own family and step away.

Candice Van Dertholen did not arrive at her work in energy healing by reading about it. She lived through it.In this episode of Fine is a 4-Letter Word, host Lori Saitz sits down with energy practitioner Candice Van Dertholen for an unflinching conversation about single parenthood at 22, a Texas maximum security prison career she stumbled into out of financial desperation, an abusive marriage that escalated into a violent car ride with her children in the backseat, and the night she nearly took her own life — waking up in a hospital bed furious that she was still alive.From Joyce Meyer's Battlefield of the Mind on a hospital nightstand to affirmations she wrote thousands of times before she even knew what affirmations were, Candice traces the slow, unglamorous, piece-by-piece rebuilding that took two years before she felt like herself again. She also shares the complicated grief of finding out both ex-husbands had died within the same year, and why disenfranchised grief rarely gets the space it deserves.Now a practitioner who holds space for others in those same pivotal moments, Candice talks about why self-sabotage is almost always a story, why money in alignment multiplies, and what happens when we finally stop running from the relationship with ourselves.Listen on all platforms:Search "Fine is a 4-Letter Word" on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your shows.

A single mother of three from a young age, she has navigated poverty, domestic abuse, correctional work, burnout, and near-fatal crisis to arrive at a practice centered on helping others break the self-sabotaging patterns that keep them from the next version of themselves.

Description:For 15 years, Tim Schraeder Rodriguez quietly shaped the digital face of some of the biggest names in evangelical Christianity — Willow Creek, Hillsong, Elevation — helping mega-churches reach millions with a message of radical welcome. The painful irony? He was living proof of their unspoken rules. Useful in the shadows. Unacceptable in the light.In this conversation, Tim joins Jen and Amy to talk about his new memoir, Conversion Therapy Dropout, and the full arc of his story: growing up adopted with a sense of "anxious apartness," signing the purity pledge as a kid who already knew he was gay, eight years in the loosely-held and deeply damaging world of conversion therapy, and eventually a breaking point that brought him to his knees — and then, slowly, to himself.Today, the conversation swirls around what conversion therapy actually looks like from the inside (football coaches, Mary Kay consultants, and all), the complicated grief of leaving a community that was also your career and your family, how the Pulse Orlando shooting became Tim's personal line in the sand, and what it took to find his way back to faith — this time, in church basements with other sober queer people finding a God of their own understanding.They also get into the current state of conversion therapy in America, why it's more active and accessible than most people realize, and what the rest of us — regular people who just live on their street and go to their jobs — can actually do about it.This one is hard and beautiful and hopeful. Don't miss it.Thought-provoking Quotes:★ "I was living proof of their unspoken rules. I was useful in the shadows, but unacceptable in the light." – Tim Schraeder Rodriguez★ "It really kind of disintegrates you in body, mind and spirit because you're acting and being something and someone that you're not." – Tim Schraeder Rodriguez★ "Freedom wasn't finally becoming who they said I was supposed to be, but finally embracing who I believe God created me to be." – Tim Schraeder Rodriguez★ "More transformation was happening in church basements than was ever happening upstairs." – Tim Schraeder Rodriguez★ "I finally feel like I'm living from a place of honesty and truth. I sense and feel God's presence with me today now more as an openly gay man than I ever did in the years I was in conversion therapy." – Tim Schraeder Rodriguez Resources Mentioned in This Episode:➢ Dissenting Harmony - Amy's Rage Choir - https://dissentingharmony.betterworld.org/➢ Conversion Therapy Dropout: A Queer Story of Faith and Belonging by Timothy Schraeder Rodriguez - https://amzn.to/48smCCv➢ Conversion Therapy Dropout audiobook - https://amzn.to/3OZULmD➢ Exodus International - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exodus_International➢ The Trevor Project — thetrevorproject.org➢ ...

We originally wanted to title this episode "How the worst day of life became the best day of life", but we realized it was better to let Pete Holmes explain everything that happened to him leading up to his stand-up career and the creation of his HBO show, Crashing, that he made with Judd Apatow. On this episode of Really? no Really? Jason and Peter do a deep with Pete on how an incident liking catching your wife in an affair with another man can not only serve as comedic and artistic inspiration, they also delve into how you respond or handle such a situation. That's where factors like therapy and spirituality come into play and emphasizes the need for comedy in our lives. We'll also discuss comedy justice, Simpsons jokes that didn't get cut, those College Humor Batman sketches and why we all need a Larry David in our lives. Learn more about your ad choices.

Matthew Bowyer is back. He just got out of federal prison camp — and in Part 2 of his conversation with Ian Bick he's holding nothing back. Matthew opens up about what his nearly 6 months inside actually looked like — the stories nobody expected the prison politics the gambling economy behind bars and how he was labeled a snitch inside. Then the conversation shifts to what comes next. He owes nearly $10 million to the IRS with interest accruing at $60,000 every single month. He's been placed on Nevada's Black Book — banned from every casino in the state. He breaks down his biggest gambling swing ever how casino comps actually work the truth about counting cards why automatic shuffling tables hurt your odds and how to get a better edge at the casino. This is the most raw and revealing conversation Matthew has ever had. _____________________________________________ #casino #truecrimecommunity #gambling _____________________________________________ Thank you to NOCD for sponsoring this episode: If you're struggling with OCD or unrelenting intrusive thoughts, NOCD can help.

Chris and Matt dig into the fine print of the U.S.-Iran memorandum signed this week by President Trump in Versailles, separating what Tehran banks immediately — sanctions relief, frozen funds, an open Strait of Hormuz — from what's still contingent on a future nuclear settlement, and why claiming victory now looks premature. From there, a Foreign Affairs piece reframes the war's aftermath: rather than breaking the Islamic Republic, the campaign may have hardened it, elevating a younger, more nationalist generation around Mojtaba Khamenei whose pragmatism is tactical rather than moral — and inviting an uneasy comparison to Putin's Russia. They close on new reporting that the Pentagon has quietly raised Israel to a "critical" counterintelligence threat, working through allegations of bugged DIA offices and eavesdropped negotiations against the longer history of allies spying on allies.

What if the Civil War's most consequential diplomacy didn't happen in London or Washington — but in the back offices of Bahamian merchants, the shipyards of Liverpool, and the harbors of Nassau? In this episode, Kelly McFarland sits down with historian and Army veteran Beau Cleland to discuss his award-winning book "Between King Cotton and Queen Victoria: How Pirates, Smugglers, and Scoundrels Almost Saved the Confederacy" — winner of the 2026 Wiley Silver Prize for the best first book in the history of the Civil War. Beau reveals how a decentralized network of blockade runners, private merchants, and colonial opportunists gave the Confederacy a fighting chance — and why their ultimate failure holds surprising lessons for gray zone conflict today.

Is Harry Potter a good person? A good friend? A victim? Extraordinary?We heard from over 600 listeners, and the results were more chaotic than you might expect. In this episode of Critical Magic Theory, Professor Julian Wamble digs into the survey data to explore what our answers to these four questions reveal not just about Harry, but about the standards we hold him to. From the Dursleys' cupboard to the horcrux hunt, we examine what Harry actually learned growing up and why so many of the behaviors we criticize in him trace directly back to Privet Drive.PRE-ORDER: Behind the Cloak: Race, Identity, and Harry PotterBarnes & Noble: Behind the Cloak: Race, Identity and Harry PotterBookshop: Behind the Cloak: Race, Identity and Harry Potter Amazon: Behind the Cloak: Race, Identity and Harry Potter

Dr. Jessica Taylor has spent years helping survivors understand abuse, coercive control, and stalking. Then she found herself living it. What started as online harassment grew into a relentless campaign of stalking and surveillance. People she had never met seemed to know intimate details about her life, her family, and her movements. As the harassment escalated, a whistleblower came forward with evidence that exposed just how closely she had been watched. Today, Jessica shares her experience surviving online stalking, the impact it had on her life, and how it led her to write Click. Stalk. Destroy.

Most of us have been through difficult experiences. We've been hurt, let down, rejected, traumatised, or faced challenges we never asked for. The question is: what happens next?In this episode, I sit down with Chris Moon, a former military officer, landmine survivor, former Khmer Rouge prisoner, and the world's first amputee ultra-distance runner. Chris has survived experiences most of us can't even imagine, but what stood out to me most wasn't what happened to him.It was how he chose to think about it.We talk about hope, resilience, adversity, trauma, victim mode, personal responsibility, fear, uncertainty, and what it really takes to keep moving forward when life doesn't go to plan. This isn't about pretending life is easy or ignoring pain. It's about learning how to face reality without letting it define you.Chris Moon is a former British Army officer, author, motivational speaker, landmine survivor, former Khmer Rouge prisoner, and the world's first amputee ultra-distance runner.Timestamps: (00:00) Introduction: Rejecting Victimhood(00:32) Gun Barrel Mindset(02:34) Stress Responses Explained(04:28) Reset With Laughter(05:37) Khmer Rouge Survival Tactics(07:36) Ghost Story In The Village(13:29) Hope And Gratitude(16:18) Humanity Over Violence(17:50) Polarization And Respect(21:02) Facing Hard Decisions(24:11) Landmine Blast And Recovery(27:21) Khmer Rouge History Primer(31:32) Tuol Sleng Horrors(34:07) Khmer Rouge Hostage(35:41) Ambush And Interrogation(37:09) Stop Worrying Cycles(38:29) Swimming After Amputation(40:46) Reframe And Look Outward(44:45) Simple Habits For Resilience(46:48) Suicide Survival Lesson(52:24) Step By Step Goals(55:03) Choosing Gratitude Daily(57:01) Choice Over Victimhood(01:01:02) Advice(01:03:21) Final ThanksConnect with Nick:Instagram: https://instagram.com/nickbracksWebsite: http://nickbracks.comEmail: contact@nickbracks.comConnect with Chris:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrismoonspeakermbeWebsite: https://www.chrismoon.co.uk Hosted on Acast.

Why do near-death experiences seem to offer transformative impacts on individuals' lives? Genevieve hosts a discussion with Kathi Beasley from The Institute for Spirituality and Health, who recounts her own near-death experiences. Beasley speaks about the feeling of meeting loved ones in a special place and encountering a being of light. Her experience involves a powerful energy of love piercing her, altering her life's trajectory. Genevieve interprets these phenomena as an energy that exists beyond religious boundaries. They explore how these encounters provide new perspectives on life, death, and purpose. They discuss the psychological and spiritual transformations following such experiences. Supportive groups and resources for near-death experiencers are highlighted. Challenges in medical diagnosis and recognition of mystical experiences by healthcare professionals are examined. The episode underscores the value of understanding and supporting those who have undergone these life-changing events.

Near-death experiences often involve encounters with a profound and unconditional love, a sense of peace, and transformative impacts on individuals' perspectives on life and death. These experiences can bring a deep understanding and appreciation for life, leading to significant personal changes toward empathy and compassion. 2. Those who undergo NDEs frequently shift from a more materialistic or ego-driven lifestyle to one centered on love, empathy, and service. The experiences are often seen as a second chance, prompting individuals to lead more meaningful and purpose-driven lives. 3. Providing validation and support for individuals who have experienced NDEs is crucial. This includes recognizing and accepting these experiences within the healthcare system and broader society to offer comfort and understanding to those affected. 4. There is a notable need for healthcare providers to recognize and address the spiritual or mystical aspects of patients' experiences, particularly those related to NDEs. This understanding can improve patient care and advocacy, leading to more holistic treatment approaches. 5. Patients with rare or difficult-to-diagnose medical conditions often face significant challenges in getting proper care. Kathi's story emphasizes the importance of self-advocacy and persistence in seeking medical help. It also highlights the need for raising awareness among healthcare providers about the potential for paranormal or mystical experiences related to serious health issues.

Absolutely crazy story!

You keep saying you want more. More success. More clarity. More courage to go after the thing that keeps sitting in the back of your mind.But the truth is most people stop feeding the part of them that believes bigger is even possible. They scroll. They react. They stay stuck in the same thoughts and wonder why nothing changes.In this conversation Rick talks about reading, audiobooks, habit stacking, millionaire habits, and the self limiting belief that keeps people saying things like “I'm just not a reader.” He breaks down how he went from hating books to using audiobooks during workouts and travel to keep filling his mind with ideas that create motion.What Rick explores in this episode:Why successful people keep feeding their mind even when life is already fullHow audiobooks can work when sitting down with a book just does not fit your rhythmThe simple habit of attaching learning to something you already do every dayWhy biographies matter when you need proof that somebody else has already walked through hard thingsHow new ideas can make your old dream feel possible againFollow Rick's Socials:Instagram | LinkedIn | RickJordan.TVKeywords: millionaire habits, audiobooks, self improvement books, personal growth, success mindset, habit stacking, morning routine, discipline, personal development, leadership mindset, entrepreneur habits, mindset shift, successful people habits, business growth, audible books, biography books, learning habits, growth mindset, stop scrolling, productivity habits, life change, book recommendations, wisdom of walt, ed mylett, power of one more, 75 hard, high performers, dream bigger, mental toughness

In 1832, a New Bedford whaleship called the Mentor struck a reef in the remote Pacific archipelago of Palau. The tiny, 100-foot-long ship began sinking immediately, and the 22 men who made up its crew were thrown into one of the most extraordinary survival ordeals in American maritime history. Ten men vanished the night of the wreck and were never seen again. The survivors found themselves stranded among island peoples with their own complex politics, rival confederations, and fifty years of complicated history with Western ships that the castaways knew nothing about. What followed was a story of captivity, starvation, forced tattooing, a rescue that made everything worse, and a years-long scramble across islands and ocean before the last survivors finally made it home. Today's guest is Eric Jay Dolin, author of "The Wreck of the Mentor." We untangle one of the great forgotten stories of the Age of Sail, and explore how fifty years of British guns and gunboat diplomacy warped Palauan politics long before the Mentor arrived, why the men who attacked the castaways with war clubs also cooked them lavish feasts and wept for their dead, and how crewman Horace Holden kept himself alive on a famine-stricken island when almost everything pointed toward death.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A lot of the women listening to this have survived a relationship with someone like Jesse Ridgway. The manipulator. The performer. The partner who takes your worst day and makes it about them. And when a man like that shows up on your feed doing exactly the things the person in your life used to do, something in your brain says: I need to see this named. I need to watch someone call it what it is.Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott explains why that instinct is so powerful, what's happening in the brain when moral outrage triggers the same dopamine hit as direct validation, and why the uncertainty of Jesse's content — real or fake, you never know — hooks the audience the same way a slot machine does. She looks at whether the audience is co-dependent in this dynamic, whether every click is supplying Jesse the way a partner supplies a narcissist, and what consuming this kind of content daily is doing to the developing brains of teenagers.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/ Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

The fall of the Lordship of the Isles didn't just fracture a clan — it set off a centuries-long story of survival, rivalry, and extinction. In Part 2, we continue our deep dive into the independent branches that emerged from the ruins of Clan Donald, focusing on four clans that carved out their own identities and legacies — and honoring the branches that didn't survive into the modern era.If you haven't listened to Part 1 yet, start there — we lay the groundwork with the history of the Lordship, its forfeiture in 1493, and an introduction to the major branches of Clan Donald.The Branches Covered in This Episode:

Between them, John Kinsel and Dusty Turner lost 59 years. John went in on a child's testimony that the child herself recanted under oath in open court ...and still sat in that Louisiana prison for 19 more years while the system looked the other way. Dusty went in because his swim buddy committed a murder, blamed him for it, and then confessed on tape in 2002. A judge declared Dusty innocent in 2008. The state appealed two days later. Tonight, for the first time, Dr. Phil talks directly to John... the prison never allowed it before. And he follows up with Dusty, who walked out in March and was back behind bars six weeks later on a parole violation he says was an honest mistake. These two men missed 9/11, iPhones, social media, streaming ...nearly everything that defines modern life. What they're finding out now is that surviving the system was only half the battle. Jason Flom is back, too because this fight doesn't end at the prison gate.This episode is brought to you by; The You Can Do It Foundation supports meaningful media that reflects faith, family, personal responsibility, and freedom.

While many dinosaurs were wiped out when a colossal asteroid struck Earth 66m years ago, one group survived: birds. Prof Steve Brusatte, a palaeontologist at the University of Edinburgh, has written a new book, The Story of Birds, tracing the evolution of our feathered friends from their dinosaur origins. He joins science correspondent Nicola Davis to discuss how scales first became feathers, how winged dinosaurs survived the impact of the asteroid and why their extreme adaptability offers hope that birds might also make it through the current environmental crisis.

Survivor Morgan Rowan describes for the first time on television how she was brutally attacked in 1968 by social gadfly Rodney Alcala, during a party at his Hollywood home. Just three weeks later, Alcala would abduct and attack 8-year-old Tali Shapiro, who describes her chilling assault in her own words. Morgan and Tali were the only survivors of soon to be serial killer Rodney Alcala, who was convicted of five Southern California murders in the 1970's. Alcala was so wickedly brazen that he actually appeared on an episode of "The Dating Game" during his murderous reign of terror.Apartments.com - To find whatever you're searching for and more visit apartments.com the place to find a place.Progressive - Multitask right now.
