In this conversation, Britten welcomes TMT 2025 alums Christine Gutierrez, Kate Eastridge, and Katrine Waugh to reflect on what it was like to ride the emotional waves of The Magician's Table through the lens of the Prince of Cups. Together, they share how they found the container, what they brought to practice, and what unfolded as they entered initiation weekend, navigated vulnerability, strengthened self-trust, and emerged with deeper confidence in their magic. This episode traces the arc of saying yes, being held, and carrying the medicine forward into the world. Topics They Cover: How each of them found The Magician's Table: from podcast serendipity to repeated returns to the sales page to the quiet build-up of the idea that they can be a part of this bigger thing What they brought to the container (mediumship, astrology, tarot) and how their practice evolved through consistent weekly readings and exchange The initiation weekend experience and what it felt like to enter a structured, intimate space that is designed to hold you The emotional rhythm of the container: nervousness, imposter feelings, surprise and delight, strengthening self-trust, and the feeling of time outside of time The power of structure and community: being witnessed, building integrity, honing skills, and learning to hold space for others What it felt like to close the container and why they'd say yes again (and encourage others to honor the pull if they feel it) THE DOORS TO THE 2026 MAGICIAN'S TABLE ARE NOW OPEN!

Before she ever stepped onto a set, she was captivated by stories of reinvention and reckoning blended with the farcical rhythm and profound questions of an existential comedy. Drawn to stories that bend time such as Groundhog Day and Palm Springs or the sudden presence of an omniscient voice narrating one's life in Stranger Than Fiction. Kate seeks stories about awareness. About how one's perceptions might change when we shine a light on the cycle of what's happening right now. Kate's original fascination with astrology and use of tarot as tools for creative writing and character development led her to explore how tools of divination to prompt reflection while laughing her way through her own hero's journey.

In today's episode, we talk exclusively about corrections on the knee chest table. This includes proper patient set up and relaxation, as well as doctor stance and technique.

Hi. Welcome to Greatheart's Table, a podcast for pastors and those who care for them. Actually, I've found that many more than pastors have an interest in what we talk about here. So please pass this on to others, whether they are pastors or not. Certainly, the subject of this episode—the intersection of sexual fidelity and power—is relevant far beyond the role of pastor. The incidence of another high profile Christian leader having an affair awakens us once again to the target the devil has placed on our backs. Or should it? I have reason here to question that image. Perhaps its not the devil's so-called target that should concern us, but our own lack of awareness of the vulnerability of power.

Let me ask you something: Would you take financial advice from someone who's broke?No? Then why are we taking relationship advice from people who are single and have never been married?Today is Valentine's Day, and this is the ONLY relationship episode I'm doing all year. And I'm not bringing on just anybody—I'm sitting down with Dr. Christopher Reed, a man who's been married for 30 years, together with his wife for 32 years, and has been coaching couples since 2011.This isn't theory. This isn't what's trending on social media. This is what ACTUALLY works.If you're single and tired of bad advice...If you're in a relationship and struggling with money fights...If you're married and want to strengthen your foundation...This conversation will change how you see relationships forever.Dr. Reed said something that stopped me in my tracks: "You are her second most important decision. Her first yes is God. Her second yes is YOU."That put weight on my shoulders I'd never felt before. And if you're a man watching this, you need to feel that weight too.Let's get into it.

Today's guest is Tanya Bush, a writer, editor, and pastry chef. She's the co-founder of the indie magazine Cake Zine and the author of the new book “Will This Make You Happy: Stories and Recipes from a Year of Baking.” Her work has appeared in The New York Times, New York Magazine, Eater, and more, and she's also the pastry chef at Little Egg and Table of Contents in Brooklyn. Tanya joins host Jessie Sheehan to talk about the year that changed everything for her—living through the pandemic, losing her job, starting an anonymous baking Instagram account, and deciding to become a pastry chef—and how it inspired her debut book. The duo also walk through Tanya's Toasted Poppy Seed Cruller with Lemon Curd recipe from the book. The author explains why she adds a touch of whole wheat flour for texture, why freezing the crullers before frying is key to a crisp exterior and custardy center, and how glazes are the ultimate blank canvas for creativity.

In this episode, Britten LaRue is joined by TMT Alums Bee Phillips and Patrick Dommermuth to explore the lived difference between the Mystic and the Magician, not as fixed identities, but as two complementary ways of moving through desire, time, and co-creation. Together they tease out images that make the distinction felt, name how each archetype relates to will vs surrender, and reflect on how Britten's containers (Emergence Astrology and The Magician's Table) invite different kinds of intimacy, pressure, and self-discovery in community. Topics They Cover: How Patrick and Bee found Britten's work including the push-pull of malefic medicine, attraction and aversion, and saying yes to both Emergence Astrology and The Magician's Table The felt difference between the Mystic and the Magician: surrender vs will, magnetism vs dynamism, receptivity vs concentrated desire Images that make the archetypes embodied: outer space and comet, heart and blood, air/fire vs earth/water, purification by water vs purification by flame Community as a mirror and medicine: being seen, restoring parts that once felt unsafe, and discovering yourself through others' witnessing Time as an archetypal experience: Mystic time as dissolving and nonlinear versus Magician time as intensified, Saturnian, and pressure-based Why The Magician's Table structure (timers, attendance, deadlines, constraint) can dissolve imposter syndrome and crystallize craft, while Emergence Astrology builds the inner ground and skill set THE DOORS TO THE 2026 MAGICIAN'S TABLE ARE NOW OPEN!

The moment sparked conversations about the real harm that racial slurs carry for Black people, alongside questions about the awareness around Tourette's and the responsibility of live broadcasting. → Click here to check out the Pour Over Newsletter
The Philadelphia 76ers are back on the court after the All-Star break. Fans are trying to figure out what direction this team is heading as they're certainly not in a rebuilding mode. How might the latter part of this season shape their future? This week, Sean Barnard from Fox Sports Philly's The Gambler, DraftKings, and Crossing Broad joined us for a great discussion about this team, players we'll be keeping our eyes on, and how they can be successful down the stretch.But first, the guys dove into some Phillies Spring Training storylines. (Approx. 5:35)From there, they got into how the Phillies broadcasts are changing as Taryn Hatcher and Mike Schmidt will no longer be part of the NBC Sports Philly team. (Approx. 11:45)The guys then talked about a few Eagles offseason storylines as the offensive line is coming back in full, the A.J. Brown trade nonsense, and how the front office will be prioritizing a cornerback opposite of Quinyon Mitchell this offseason.. (Approx. 17:55)They also got into whether or not the Flyers season is lost at this point. (Approx. 30:05What they threw down on the Table this week was a great and in-depth conversation with Sean Barnard from Fox Sports Philly's The Gambler, DraftKings, and Crossing Broad about this Sixers team. They analyzed V.J. Edgecombe's development, Tyrese Maxey's importance to the team - short-term and long-term, and brought back their “Up or Down” segment as they looked at a bunch of talent on the roster.

1 Cor 10 – Find Freedom Without Failure is the topic that will be discussed today on RIOT Podcast, a Christian Discipleship Podcast. In 1 Corinthians 9, Paul surrendered his rights for the sake of the gospel. In 1 Corinthians 10, he gives a warning: spiritual privilege does not guarantee spiritual success. Israel saw miracles. They experienced God's presence. Yet many still fell. Why? Because experiences don't replace obedience. In this episode, we talk about: Why freedom requires humility The real danger of idolatry and pride How temptation works—and what the “way of escape” truly means (v.13) Why everyday choices reveal spiritual allegiance You can't live at the Lord's Table and the table of demons. Freedom in Christ is real but it demands watchfulness. Listen now and learn how to live in freedom without drifting into failure.
In this episode of Wisdom's Table, I invite you to join me for a heartfelt conversation that aims to encourage and uplift, especially for the women listening. I share my personal journey, including the challenges I've faced, such as my experience with lung damage from pulmonary embolisms, which serves as a reminder of the fragility of life and the importance of self-awareness. I delve into the subtle yet powerful thoughts that often plague women—feelings of inadequacy and the fear of voicing our struggles.

Episode 24 of Matt Likes Beer shines a spotlight on a rice-forward American-style lager from Table Brewing, continuing the show's run of style-driven, BJCP-informed beer evaluations. Picked up through Tavour, the beer prompts Matt to dig into one of the most frequently misunderstood brewing ingredients in modern beer: rice. Matt opens by addressing his own preconceived notions about dark beers and adjunct lagers, acknowledging that rice is often unfairly associated with mass-market American lagers. From there, the episode pivots into an educational breakdown of how rice is actually used in brewing, including the distinction between standard brewer's rice and more aromatic varieties like jasmine rice, which can contribute subtle floral and grain character rather than just fermentable sugar. Judged using BJCP guidelines, the beer presents with excellent clarity, a pale golden color, and a clean, well-formed head. Aromatically, it remains restrained—appropriate for the style—while offering delicate grain notes and a soft, rounded malt profile. Flavor-wise, the beer is crisp and highly drinkable, with rice contributing dryness and smoothness rather than overt sweetness or hop bitterness. Mouthfeel is light to medium-light, clean, and refreshing, aligning well with the intended style. While the beer performs well technically, Matt notes that the subtlety of the style inherently limits how high it can score in competition settings. The final BJCP score lands in the Very Good range, reinforcing a recurring theme of the podcast: some beers are meant to be enjoyed, not chased for points. The episode expands into a broader discussion about style bias, particularly how adjunct lagers are often dismissed before being properly evaluated. Matt argues that when brewed with intention and quality ingredients, rice lagers can be elegant, nuanced, and extremely difficult to execute well—making them worthy of respect both on the judging table and in everyday drinking.

The Miami Dolphins front office addressed the media and made headlines by saying Tua Tagovailoa's future has “everything on the table.” Joe argues a fresh start would benefit both sides, adding that a move to the Minnesota Vikings feels unlikely given Tua's rocky history with former Dolphins coach Brian Flores. The crew notes Miami will still face a significant financial hit no matter what direction they choose with Tua. They also credit GM Jon-Eric Sullivan for his transparency so far and discuss ongoing free-agency buzz linking Miami to quarterback Malik Willis.
Robin Zander hosted a Snafu webinar for the Sidebar community on non-sales selling—think self-promotion for career transitions, freelancers, entrepreneurs, and product people. The goal: learn to "sell yourself" without the ick factor. Participants shared fears: follow-ups feel intimidating, sales feels slimy, and success seems like a numbers game. Robin reframed it: selling is really about enrollment—being a chief evangelist for your work, not begging for attention. Drawing on stories from his childhood pumpkin patch, his time as a personal trainer (where desperation lost him clients), and opening Robin's Cafe in San Francisco (raising $40k, serving multiple stakeholders, training staff with Danny Meyer's principles), he showed the difference between selling from need vs. service. Long-term success comes from genuine connection, curiosity, optimism, and passion. Attendees explored their "authentic attitude" and reflected on times self-promotion felt good versus slimy. Exercises included mapping all the people who benefit from your work—employees, customers, managers, mentees, community—and practicing generosity in selling (a "Miracle on 34th Street" mindset: help customers even if it means sending them elsewhere). In Q&A, Robin tackled: Asking for promotions as modeling for others, especially women and minorities Persistence in follow-ups (yes, emailing Mark Benioff 53 times counts) Relationship-based enterprise selling Avoiding fear-based AI marketing by knowing who you serve and what problem you solve Recommended reading: Setting the Table (Danny Meyer), Unreasonable Hospitality (Will Guidara), The New Strategic Selling. Robin also shared upcoming Snafu conference details (March 5, Oakland Museum of California) and reminded everyone: Snafu = situation normal; all fucked up. 00:00 Start 01:06 Audience Fears About Selling Robin Zander welcomes 93 participants to the webinar Notes the session is interactive with exercises planned Encourages participants to drop questions in chat or interrupt him Last 15–20 minutes reserved for questions Robin introduces himself briefly Focuses on storytelling as a tool for self-promotion Shares experience as a community builder Runs a conference called Responsive since 2016 (not Snafu) Tools, structures, and company cultures for resilient organizations Two-day event each September on the future of work Focus on building resilience in organizations Observations on rapid change Technology and work-life changes happening at a fast pace Questions about resilience in individuals Traits needed in careers, personal relationships, professional relationships Ability to stay resilient through change Robin frames his expertise Emphasizes his strength in asking questions and fostering honest conversations Labels himself a reluctant salesperson Not the world's leading expert on self-promotion or selling Key lessons from research and interviews Two buckets matter in business and life: Example: Sidebar community forming coalitions for learning and action Operational excellence: being competent and at least as good as others Promotion/enrollment/sales: standing up, saying what you want, building coalitions Started interviewing people about influence and persuasion Started a weekly newsletter called Snafu Written by hand, not AI Shares lessons from his life and others about self-promotion and resilience Focus on courage to take action: raising hand, offering something valuable Core characteristics of self-promotion and selling yourself Connecting with others: art of connection Courage to ask: inspired by Amanda Palmer's TED Talk and book The Art of Asking Opposes traditional "always be closing" sales mentality Advocates for simply asking for what you want Current work mostly involves storytelling for large companies Clients include Supersonic, Airbnb, Zappos, and others 12:25 Service as the Core Principle Robin introduces the concept of storytelling for self-promotion Stories used to: Get promotions Build coalitions Propel career or organizational growth Emphasizes turning personal, career, or company stories into "commercials" Focus of today's talk: self-promotion with impact Core principle: service Showing up from a place of helping others Through helping others, also helping oneself Distinguishes between sleazy salespeople and effective self-promoters Childhood anecdote: Robin's pumpkin patch Tended plants all summer, learned responsibility and care Harvested pumpkins and sold them using a small red tin box labeled "money" Ran "Robin's Pumpkin Patch" for five to seven years At age five, father had him plant pumpkin seeds Engaged neighborhood kids for fun, collaborative promotion Explained product (pumpkins) enthusiastically to potential buyers Used scarecrow costumes and creative gestures to attract attention Lessons learned from pumpkin patch: Authentic enthusiasm creates value Helping people do what they were already inclined to do Early experience of earning and serving simultaneously Self-promotion is most effective when it's service-driven, not manipulative Applying childhood lesson to career and business Asking for a raise Persuading companies to choose one service over another Promoting oneself or others (e.g., Evan, web developer) Key principle: approach self-promotion from delight and service, not need or fear Authentic enthusiasm as foundation for: Interactive exercise for participants Not influenced by sleep deprivation or stress Could be inspired by childhood or adult experiences Opposite of fear; personal and unique for each participant Question posed: what is your authentic attitude when self-promoting? Examples shared from participants: Curiosity Passion Inspiration Service to others Observation Possibility Insight Value Helping others Creativity Belief in serendipity Optimism Key takeaway from exercise and story Promoting from delight, enthusiasm, and service Promoting from need or fear Two versions of self-promotion: Effective self-promotion aligns with authenticity and enthusiasm, creating value for others while advancing oneself 18:36 Gym Job and Needy Selling Robin shares the next story and sets up the next exercise Gym culture is sales-heavy Initial motivation: love of fitness, desire to help people Quickly realizes environment incentivizes personal trainers to sell aggressively Timeframe: ~20 years later, at age 20, moved to San Francisco First post-college job: personal trainer in gyms Early experience at gyms Key lesson from early failure Selling from need feels gross Promoting oneself from fear or desperation leads to poor results Recognizes similarity to unwanted sales calls received personally First authentic success in self-promotion Worked at Petro and World's Gym in San Francisco, Pilates instructor Owner confronted Robin after two weeks: no clients, potential clients being lost to others Threatened termination by Friday if no clients acquired Robin froze under pressure, approached clients but with needy, desperate energy Outcome: fired by Friday, left gym Encounters man in pain on Valencia Street, offers help as personal trainer Approach comes from genuine care, desire to serve Leads to three-year working relationship, consistent sessions, good income Next client: world-famous photographer Michael Light at UCSF swimming pool Client comes from natural connection, not pushy salesmanship Dichotomy observed: Pushy, need-based self-promotion → freeze, poor results Service-oriented self-promotion → natural connections, sustained relationships Exercise for participants Prompt: identify two moments: One time self-promoting felt slimy → what were you doing? One time self-promoting felt good → what were you doing differently? Two-minute reflection / chat participation Participant reflections/examples Slimy examples: Interviewing for a job during layoffs, giving desperate energy Selling P&L at a hyperscaler Selling computers and printers in UK post-college Sales emails getting ghosted Feeling inauthentic or performative, taking advantage of someone Good examples: Offering services out of care and love rather than ROI Showing impact of work to junior child Knowing services add real value and solve a challenge Being clear on what the other person needs Key takeaway Self-promotion feels different depending on intent and knowledge Slimy → desperate, inauthentic, unclear value to recipient Authentic → service-driven, clear value, connection-focused Effective self-promotion combines knowing your value and serving others, not just pushing for personal gain 25:35 Miracle on 34th Street Lesson Feeling good in self-promotion comes from genuinely helping, solving problems, and sharing information Santa Claus hired at Macy's to hold kids and give candy canes, but real goal: persuade parents to buy from Macy's Santa instead sends parents to competitor to truly serve them Macy's manager initially furious Outcome: customers feel genuinely served, return praising Macy's, become loyal fans Robin references Miracle on 34th Street (original version) Key insight: providing real value, even if it benefits someone else, eventually returns value to you "Put enough bread across the water, eventually good things come back" Participant reflections Slimy: knowing audience expects judgment, catering to them for approval Good: giving the gift of knowledge, providing service freely Takeaway: authentic self-promotion is rooted in service, generosity, and sharing expertise, not manipulating for immediate gain 27:45 Starting Robin's Cafe Through Service Robin shares a major professional turning point: opening Robin's Cafe in 2016 No restaurant experience beyond college busing tables Opened in three weeks, eventually grew to 15 employees by 2018 Worked in multiple industries: Pumpkin patch, personal trainer, circus performer Opened a café/restaurant in Mission District, San Francisco Courage and conviction came from clear focus on service to others Employees: create a great workplace, go-giver culture Investors: $40k raised from friends/family, provided value and potential return Landlords (ODC, nonprofit dance center): wanted success of business to support community Customers: diverse—tech workers, kids in dance classes, local community Robin himself: financial sustainability, learning, personal growth Key audiences served by Robin's Cafe Approach to challenges Used Danny Meyer's Setting the Table as a service-focused framework for employees Philosophy: "giving in order to get paid" Examples: spouse, kids, dog, manager, peers, mentees, clients, community, customers, extended family, mentors Served multiple stakeholders during crises: break-ins, flooding, city permitting, neighborhood issues Exercise: identify all the people who benefit from your work or success Key idea: the more stakeholders served, the easier self-promotion becomes, because it comes from service, not need or pressure Show up thinking: does this serve the person I'm talking to? Principle: selling yourself from a place of service Consider multiple stakeholders simultaneously Audience question: elaborate on applying this service mindset specifically to asking for a promotion Tying service to self-promotion in career advancement Result: asking for a raise, applying for jobs, pitching clients—all easier and more authentic 38:11 Promotion As Service Asking for a promotion from a place of service Example: doing the role already, deserving recognition, asking for what you believe you've earned. Personal perspective: advocating for yourself is a form of service to yourself Recognize other stakeholders in the process: Modeling courage and advocacy for the next generation Authority enables ideas to be taken more seriously Stories gained from new responsibilities enhance value to clients or teams People you mentor, especially women or underrepresented groups The organization: your promotion can make it stronger Your family or children: showing them what it looks like to advocate Concrete examples Outcome: trajectory of career positively influenced, demonstrated courage, modeled behavior Asking first time for a manager role Later asking for VP title as a director Courage and small steps Courage = acting despite fear, not absence of fear Practice by taking incremental steps toward what scares you Avoid masking or hesitation; direct action builds confidence and results Persistence and follow-up Busy people require patience and multiple nudges Example: Mark Stubbings emailing Mark Benioff 53 times before a yes Persistence = respectful, consistent follow-ups Role modeling for women and minorities Demonstrates that asking is a normal, expected, and service-oriented act Many don't ask for promotions or raises due to upbringing or cultural norms Modeling advocacy teaches the next generation, including children, to speak up Service mindset in practice Approach self-promotion by asking: is this good for the other person? Keep intention aligned with service, not desperation Books for guidance: Setting the Table – Danny Meyer: service-driven sales and employee culture Unreasonable Hospitality – Will Guidara: lessons from the restaurant world on giving value and delight Key takeaways for promotion and asking Serve yourself, your mentees, your organization, and your broader audience Take small, courageous steps to ask for what you deserve Follow up respectfully and consistently; don't assume silence = no Self-promotion becomes easier and authentic when rooted in service, not fear or need Snafu Newsletter Weekly newsletter written by Robin Covers influence, persuasion, and modern workplace dynamics A resource for ongoing learning and practical insights 56:55 Where to Find Robin Robin's newsletter covers influence, persuasion, and modern work.

Are PTs Leaving Money on the Table?In this episode, Jimmy, Tony Maritato, and Dave Kittle dig into something most physical therapists aren't even considering:Live selling. Affiliate income. Attention as the business model.It starts with Jimmy testing live selling premium recovery devices through Amazon Live.But it quickly turns into a bigger conversation:Are PTs avoiding affiliate revenue because it feels “salesy”?Are we spending $100K on conference booths while ignoring attention 11.99 months of the year?Could live shopping become a legitimate revenue stream for physical therapists?Does personality matter more than originality?Is attention the real asset in modern healthcare?This isn't about selling out.It's about understanding the shift happening in business:Attention → Trust → RevenueIf you don't build attention, someone else will.What We Covered???? Live Selling & Amazon LiveWhy Amazon is begging creators to go liveWhy doing it “badly” costs nothingWhy reps matter more than polishHow PT authority changes the equation???? Affiliate Income for PTsAre you recommending products anyway?Why not monetize ethically?The Dr. Samantha Smith model: courses + affiliates + virtual visitsWhere affiliate income fits into clinic strategy???? Personality > Original IdeasYou don't need to reinvent the wheel.You need to build your version of it.Tony breaks down:Why copying structure isn't copying valueWhy pushing through “The Dip” mattersWhy most people quit too early???? The $100K Booth ProblemSpending six figures at conferences…For 48 hours of exposure.Meanwhile:Brands like Rehab 2 Perform and the Prehab Guys build attention year-round.They show up consistently.They don't rely on one event.???? The Bigger QuestionWhat if the future of PT looks more like:MrBeastRyan SerhantOr a media-first brandInstead of:Waiting for referralsFighting reimbursementHoping the booth traffic convertsKey TakeawaysThe value isn't in your hands. It's in taking action.Nobody sees your early bad reps.Attention compounds.Personality is the differentiator.If you already recommend products, affiliate revenue isn't unethical — it's efficient.Selling before trust breaks the spell.But avoiding monetization entirely leaves opportunity on the table.
