In this episode, I speak with Lynn Chadwick, founder of Themis Resource Fund, about her deeply personal journey from devastating parental estrangement to purposeful advocacy. Lynn opens up about losing contact with all three of her children to trans ideology and how she nearly lost herself in the process. We explore the critical distinction between activism and family relationships—when fighting the broader culture war can actually harm your connection with your own child.Lynn shares the transformative moment that changed everything: turning off her phone, leaving behind the constant stream of trans-related content, and spending two weeks in Mexico with baby whales. This experience helped her reclaim her identity beyond "ROGD parent" and taught her that prioritizing her own healing wasn't giving up on her children—it was the most powerful thing she could do.We discuss why trans functions like a religious system that cannot tolerate doubt, the trauma parents experience in this situation, and practical wisdom about setting boundaries with information consumption. Lynn explains her vital work with Themis Resource Fund, which provides litigation support for detransitioners seeking justice through the legal system. She details the enormous costs and challenges of bringing these cases to trial, and why these lawsuits represent one of the most important frontiers in stopping medical harm to young people.Lynn Chadwick began advocating and supporting parents during her career as a neonatal intensive care nurse. Her story of how her family was affected by gender ideology was first published in the Christian Post in 2019, after which Lynn began advocating for parents both publicly and privately. Lynn has volunteered with the Kelsey Coalition, Parents of ROGD Kids, Partners for Ethical Care, and Genspect. She started a private Facebook group for parents in 2019 which is still active today. She has been interviewed about her life and work including on the Wider Lens podcast.

Joe and Kyle celebrate Vital Cohort 4 and reflect on why Vital is more than a 12-month psychedelic-informed training—it's a living community (alumni webinars, discussion groups, cross-cohort meetups). Many grads aren't rushing to facilitate; they're choosing integration, harm reduction, education, and local community building. Next cohort dates are TBD —applications and email sign-ups are open. Breathwork in Breckenridge (this weekend) Dreamshadow Transpersonal Breathwork returns Fri–Sun. The last workshop reinforced how powerful the format is for bonding, somatic processing, and ongoing peer support. Music & tech: fail-safe playbook Keep redundant sources: primary laptop with WAV/FLAC (VLC/Mixxx), secondary device/phone, and a small Bluetooth speaker as last resort. Redundant mixers/interfaces, tested cables, simple signal flow. Pre-flight the exact rig; monitor for digital artifacts/grounding noise. Use offline playlists + Do Not Disturb (actually test it). Why community matters now With AI accelerating “dead-internet” dynamics, trusted human networks—book clubs, film clubs, local meetups—are essential. Skills for the moment: digital security hygiene and discernment (evaluating claims, sources, and inner signals). News & trends Alaska: statewide psilocybin initiative begins signature gathering. New Mexico: momentum toward group psilocybin care (cost-cutting models; ~2-year horizon). TBI & psychedelics: expanding research interest (ibogaine/5-MeO imaging work; anti-inflammatory angles). Colorado & iboga: advisory board backs therapeutic use and encourages Nagoya Protocol reciprocity; federal import/legal nuances remain. Harm-reduction notes Beware gas-station/head-shop “psychedelic” edibles labeled as “proprietary blends.” Ask for COAs and clear ingredients; understand test-kit limits (chocolates are tricky). For injections (even “legal” clinics), ask about sterile technique, water, dosing, and sourcing.

The transcript may contain errors and is not a substitute for listening to the episode. Christopher S. Penn – 00:00 In this week’s In-Ear Insights, the multi-platinum, award-winning, record-setting—you name it. People love to talk about awards, particularly companies. We love to say we are an award-winning this, we’re an award-winning that. Authors say, “I’m a best-selling, award-winning book.” But Katie, you had a very interesting and provocative question: In today’s marketing landscape, do awards still matter? Katie Robbert – 00:27 And I still have that question. Also, let me back up a little bit. When I made the transition from working in more of an academic field to the public sector, I had a huge revelation—my eyes were open to how awards worked. Call it naive, call it I was sheltered from this side of the industry, but I didn’t know at the time that in order to win an award, you had to submit yourself for the award. I naively thought that you just do good work and you get nominated by someone who recognizes that you’re doing good work. That’s how awards work. Because in my naive brain, you do good work and they reward you for it. Katie Robbert – 01:16 And so here’s your award for being amazing. Speaker 3 – 01:18 And that is not at all that. Katie Robbert – 01:20 That’s not how any of the Emmys or the Grammys—they all… Speaker 3 – 01:24 Have to submit themselves. Katie Robbert – 01:25 I didn’t know that they have to choose the scene that they think is award-winning. Yes, it’s voted on by a jury of your peers, which is also perhaps problematic depending on who’s on the jury. There’s the whole—the whole thing just feels like one big scam. Katie Robbert – 01:46 That said, per usual, I’m an n of 1, and I know that in certain industries, the more awards and accolades you rack up and can put on your website, the more likely it is that people are going to hire you or your firm or buy your products because they’re award-winning. So that’s the human side of it. Part of what I’m wondering when I said, “Do awards matter?” I was really wondering about with people using generative AI to do searches. We got this question from a client earlier this week of when we’re looking at organic search, how much… Speaker 3 – 02:29 Of that traffic is coming from the different LLMs? Katie Robbert – 02:33 And so it just made me think: if people are only worried about if they’re showing up in the large language models, do awards matter? So that was a lot of preamble. That was a lot of pre-ramble, Chris. So, do awards matter in the age of LLMs? Christopher S. Penn – 02:55 I think that you’ve highlighted the two angles. One is the human angle. Awards very much matter to humans because it’s a heuristic. It’s a mental shortcut. The CMO says, “Go build me a short list of vendors in this case.” And what does the intern who usually is the one saddled with the job do? They Google for “award-winning vendor in X, Y or Z.” If they use generative AI and ChatGPT, they will very likely still say, “Build me a short list of award-winning whatevers in this thing because my CMO told me to.” And instead of them manually Googling, a tool like ChatGPT or Gemini will do the Googling for you. Christopher S. Penn – 03:33 But if that heuristic of “I need something that’s award-winning” is still part of your lexicon, part of the decision makers’ lexicon, and maybe even they don’t delegate to the intern anymore, maybe they set the deep research query themselves—say, “Give me a short list of award-winning marketing agencies”—then it still matters a lot. In the context of generative AI itself, I would argue that it actually matters more today. And here’s why: In things like the RACE framework and the Rappel framework and the many different prompt frameworks that we all use, the OpenAI Harmony framework, you name it. What do they always say? “Choose a role.” Christopher S. Penn – 04:15 “Choose a role with specifics like ‘you are an award-winning copywriter,’ ‘you are an award-winning this,’ ‘you are an award-winning that,’ ‘you are a Nobel Prize-winning this,’ ‘you are a CMI Content Marketing Award winner of this or that’ as part of the role in the prompt.” If you are that company that is ordering and you have provided ample evidence of that—when you win an award, you send out press releases, you put it on social media stuff—Trust Insights won the award for this. We are an award-winning so-and-so. That makes it into the training data. Christopher S. Penn – 04:46 And if someone invokes that phrase “award-winning consulting firm,” if we’ve done our job of seeding the LLMs with our award-winning language, just by nature of probability, we have a higher likelihood of our entities being invoked with association to that term. Katie Robbert – 05:09 It reminds me—this must have been almost two decades ago—I worked with a stakeholder who was a big fan of finding interesting recipes online. Speaker 3 – 05:25 So again, remember: Two decades ago. Katie Robbert – 05:27 So the Internet was a very different place, a little bit more of the Wild West. Actually, no, that’s not true. Christopher S. Penn – 05:34 MySpace was a thing. Katie Robbert – 05:36 I never had a MySpace. And the query, he would always start with “world’s best.” So he wouldn’t just say, “Get me a chili recipe.” He would always say, “Get me the world’s best chili recipe.” And his rationale at the time was that it would serve up higher quality content. Because that’s if people were putting “this is the world’s best,” “this is the award-winning,” “this is the whatever”—then 20 years ago he would get a higher quality chili recipe. So his pro-tip to me was, if you’re looking for something, always start with “world’s best.” And it just strikes me that 20 years later, that hasn’t changed. Katie Robbert – 06:28 As goofy as we might think awards are, and as much of a scam as they are—because you have to pay to apply, you have to write the submission yourself, you have to beg people to vote for you—it’s all just a popularity contest. It sounds like in terms of the end user searching, it still matters. And that bums me out, quite honestly, because awards are a lot of work. Christopher S. Penn – 06:50 They are a lot of work. But to your point, “What’s the world’s best chili recipe?” I literally ask ChatGPT, “What is the title of it?” “Award-style chili recipe.” Right there it is. That’s literally. That’s a terrible prompt. We all know that’s a terrible prompt. But that’s not a dishonest prompt. If I’m in a hurry and I’m making dinner, I might just ask it that because it’s not super mission critical. I’m okay with a query like this. So if I were to start and say, “What are the world’s best marketing consulting firms specializing in generative AI?” That’s also not an unreasonable thing, of course. What does it do? It kicks off a web search. So immediately it starts doing web searches. Christopher S. Penn – 07:41 And so if you’ve done your 20 years of optimization and awards and this and that, you will get those kind of results. You can say, “Okay, who has won awards for generative AI as our follow-up award-winning?” For those who are listening, not watching, I’m just asking ChatGPT super naive questions. So, who are award winners in generative AI, et cetera? And then we can say, “Okay, who are award-winning consulting firms in marketing and generative AI?” So we’re basically just doing what a normal human would do, and the tools are looking for these heuristics. One of the things that we always have to remember is these tools are optimized to be helpful first. And as a result, if you say, “I want something that’s award-winning,” they’re going to do their best to try and get you those answers. Christopher S. Penn – 08:43 So do awards matter? Yes, because clearly the tools are able to understand. Yes, I need to go find consulting firms that have won awards. Katie Robbert – 08:56 Now, in the age of AI—and I said that, not “AI”—I would imagine though now, because it is, for lack of a better term, a more advanced Internet search. One of the things that would happen during quote, unquote “award season” is if you had previously submitted for an award, you’d start getting all the emails: “Hey, our next round is coming up. Don’t forget to submit,” blah, blah. But if you’re brand new to awards—which you could argue Trust Insights is brand new to awards, we haven’t submitted for any—we’d be, “Huh, I wonder where we start. I wonder what awards are available for us to submit to.” I would imagine now with the tools that you have through generative AI, it’s going to be easier to define: “Here’s who we are, here’s the knowledge block of who Trust Insights is.” Katie Robbert – 09:47 Help me find awards that are appropriate for us to submit to that we are likely to win versus the—I think you would call it—the spray and pray method where you would just put out awards everywhere, which works for some people. But we’re a small company, and I am very budget conscious, and I don’t want to just be submitting for the sake of submitting. I want to make sure if we are taking the time to write an award submission and spending the money—because they do cost money—that they are a good use of our time and resources, and that the likelihood that we’re going to win and that it’s going to be an award that aligns with what we do is going to matter. Christopher S. Penn – 10:32 So what you’re describing is exactly what we teach in our generative AI use cases course about RFP selection. Go/no-go evaluators to say, “Here’s an RFP, should I bid on it? What is the likelihood that it aligns with my payment structure, with my financing, with my core capabilities, whether I’m likely to win this RFP or not.” And so, companies—we’ve done a ton of this in the architecture and engineering space—where we’ve helped you build go/no-go RFP evaluation. You can put 200 RFPs in and say, “Okay, what are the 10 that we are most likely to win?” And that has been enormously valuable for people. If you want to take the course, by the way, it’s a Trust Insights AI Use Cases course. Christopher S. Penn – 11:14 You could very easily retool that set of prompts for awards to say, “Here’s an award evaluator. Here’s, as you said, the knowledge block. Here are 200 different awards I could apply for. Give me the five I’m most likely to win.” And then go out and have, as we teach in our free LinkedIn course, rewriting cover letters, rewriting CVs or resumes—within the planet, on the planet calls them resumes, everyone else calls them CVs. Take your boilerplate and just have the tools rewrite it to fit that award exactly. Being truthful, being honest, being factually correct. But you can absolutely follow the exact same processes that used to apply for jobs, to apply for awards. Christopher S. Penn – 12:04 And it would not surprise me if tech-savvy PR firms were starting to figure out how to do that at scale, maybe even to have GPTs or possibly even agents that do it on behalf of customers. Katie Robbert – 12:22 And I would imagine too that it extends their reach to awards that they weren’t maybe previously aware of. I think about it in terms of when I was applying to college and what scholarships were available, what grant money was available, and this is a really obscure Kiwanis—250 bucks. I’ve never done anything with them, but I need the money. So let me go ahead and volunteer on a Saturday morning. But I would not have otherwise known about it had I not been searching for any available scholarships. And I think the same is true of these awards. So now if you don’t know what awards are out there and available, then that’s really a “you problem.” Christopher S. Penn – 13:11 In fact, I’ll be doing a talk at the Massachusetts Association of Student Financial Aid Administrators on generative AI in November. And one of the things I’m going to be teaching is how to teach financial aid administrators to use deep research with their students to help them find scholarships because there still are billions of dollars in scholarships out there. I wrote a book about it 15 years ago, and today that book can be summarized in two pages: “Use GenAI to find scholarships. Use GenAI to apply for them.” Done. You can scrap the other 78 pages. You don’t need them. Christopher S. Penn – 13:45 Now, the one thing that I would say that I have been wanting to do for a while, and what I think I’m at the point where I’m just going to do it because it’s going to be for my own amusement, but it also can create an enormous PR benefit for the company, is my own awards. Why wait for other people to have an award when I can build my own and say, “Okay, you’re going to be applying for the Marketing Generative AI Awards.” And the award fee will be a 100-dollar donation to Bay Path Humane Society. That’s the entry fee. Christopher S. Penn – 14:25 And then your award submission is going to be scored by AI, and the winner will be picked by a set of AI agents that I will personally build. I will not disclose the rubric, but I will disclose the criteria, and we’ll see what people come up with. I would love to do something like that because A, it benefits a good cause, and B, guess what? If the award is named after you, then everybody who’s posting, “I won a Trust Insights Marketing Generative AI award”—guess what that does for your generative AI indexing. Speaker 3 – 14:58 Interesting. Katie Robbert – 15:01 So, it sounds like there’s two angles. One: start your own. I guess this is true of anything: “Oh, I couldn’t get into that community. I couldn’t get into that club.” Speaker 3 – 15:10 Okay, start your own. Katie Robbert – 15:12 “I couldn’t win an award.” “Okay, start your own.” Give yourself an award. “You are the first recipient of the Trust Insights ‘great guy’ award.” Christopher S. Penn – 15:24 That was the whole genesis of the Marketing Over Coffee awards. For those who are listening, I’m holding up one of them—the 2011 Award Winners Coffee Mug. They’re just coffee mugs. These are $2 each, so it’s not a super expensive thing. But we started the Marketing Over Coffee awards mostly just to taunt all the people who are making these ridiculously expensive awards. “$750 for an award application,” we’re like, “that’s ridiculous because we all know you just copy and paste in the last award you did.” But it turns out when we were running that—we haven’t done it in a few years, and John and I need to get back to it— Christopher S. Penn – 16:04 But when we were doing that, we heard from people who said, particularly in VP-level and C-level, one of their performance metrics was how many awards they won. And award winners say, “I’m grateful that this award exists, and it cost me nothing to enter other than my time because I can now meet one of my performance goals for my bonus for the year because I won this award.” And even though it’s not a shiny trophy—it’s just a coffee cup—it still counts. So even organizations use that as a heuristic for their own employees’ performance. Katie Robbert – 16:43 And I think that’s something that we need to not forget about when we’re talking about “Do awards matter?” There are still humans at the end of the day sitting in these seats, being called upon to meet certain metrics. Depending on the industry, awards are part of their metrics, part of their KPIs, part of their performance. Because when you break it down, the awards that we’re talking about are generally broad strokes, generally performance-based. So what did you do that was cool, new, interesting, got some kind of outcome? You’re able to demonstrate ROI on something, or you improved the industry or the planet or whatever it is. They are performance-based. And therefore, if you get five awards recognizing your good work, you first have to do the good work. Katie Robbert – 17:45 And so I can understand why that’s a motivator. So if I win an award, it means I did something good. First, let me figure out what the good thing is that’s award-worthy. Christopher S. Penn – 17:57 Yes, exactly. And with that thought process comes a lot of clarity. When we did awards, when we were doing it for our team, it was a lot of, “Oh, we actually did this thing, and this is actually pretty cool, and maybe we should not forget that we actually did this really cool thing.” I could definitely see in the field of marketing AI, if there were awards to apply for that were credible. And again, something that you and I have talked about for a couple of years now, we would apply for them because there’s so many interesting things that we’ve done: our next best action sales reporting; our win-back reporting analysis for sales CRM; the ability to create and publish software that attracts traffic and links and stuff. Christopher S. Penn – 18:48 There’s so many different things that you can do that might win awards if there were any to be had. Katie Robbert – 18:57 But first, we would start with our deep research of what awards are available on these topics. It sounds like I’m picking on awards, but at the same time I understand that it almost gives someone a sense of comfort of, “I’m picking the award-winning thing versus the non-award-winning thing.” Speaker 3 – 19:32 That, and that only benefits us. Katie Robbert – 19:18 So, are there awards for courses? Could I submit any of our courses for awards? Be, “Here’s our award-winning AI strategy course.” People would likely pay attention to. Christopher S. Penn – 19:35 It’s the same as I maintain my IBM Champion certification. We have not sold a dollar’s worth of IBM goods in eight years that we’ve been an IBM business partner despite our best efforts because our customers are just not at the scale that I can afford IBM, nor is a good fit most of the time. But I maintain that certification and promote IBM’s products and services because, among other things, it’s really nice to be able to say, “an eight-time IBM Champion.” That’s a mental heuristic. People have: “I’ve heard of IBM. An IBM Champion sounds important. And so you must know what you’re doing.” It’s all these mental shortcuts we use in an increasingly busy world. And I think that’s another part that we haven’t talked about yet. In a world where—God, I sound like an AI. Christopher S. Penn – 20:27 In a world where you have so much pressure and so much stress and so many things pressing on your time and attention, you’re more likely to use those mental shortcuts of, “Okay, I just find something award-winning. I don’t have time for this.” Katie Robbert – 20:40 So I guess, all to say, awards still matter. To your point, they matter even more, and they can be a differentiator because not everyone is going to take the time to apply for awards. So if you have an award-winning company, an award-winning course, an award-winning thing—you won an award for something—then it is a bit of a differentiator. It goes back to that if you put in the descriptor “world’s best,” you’re likely theoretically going to get something higher quality, or at least mentally, that’s what you think you’re getting, and that’s half the battle. Christopher S. Penn – 21:21 Yes. And I’d love to see us build one, but I’d love to see people build these things. Particularly for areas where recognition is sparse. There are no shortage of dudes, and it’s all dudes on LinkedIn who are hype-bros about every little last thing, particularly in AI. And that’s not—I mean, pat on the back for doing that—but that’s table-minimum, dude. You are not revolutionizing the world. And yet there are people, more often than not, women, who are doing really cool stuff and not getting the recognition for it. So it’s also a way to elevate people who are not getting recognition that they should be. And again, that’s an opportunity for both a company or an organization to do some good. Christopher S. Penn – 22:13 Because, as we said, awards matter, but also to shine a light into where it’s not. Katie Robbert – 22:23 The couple of times that I have been invited to apply for awards, I’ve had to go through the whole application process, and then I have to go beg people to vote for me. And for that, there’s—we can get into the psychology, but let’s skip it today. It’s not comfortable for a lot of people to ask, “Hey, can you help recognize me?” Christopher S. Penn – 22:54 I get why awards do that. Same reason South by Southwest does that. They say, “Popularity is a filter.” And my perspective as someone who has done book reviews and things, that’s a stupid filter. Because there are a lot of things that are popular that are stupid. Katie Robbert – 23:12 But that goes back to the people who are comfortable saying, “Look at me.” It doesn’t matter if they necessarily have something to say. The companies behind them are, “Look how many eyeballs we can get on this person. Look how much clout this person has.” “It’s. I brought that back. You’re welcome.” But it’s why influencers exist. Awards are just another version of influence. Christopher S. Penn – 23:45 Exactly. Whereas I would like to see more focus on the work itself. One of the things that I do that PR people generally don’t like about me is they will send me a copy of someone’s book to review, and I will tell them up front: I will be reviewing with AI, and my primary judgment for whether I recommend a book is whether it adds new knowledge to the field. Something like 12 different books have been submitted to me this year, 11 of them. When I handed back the draft to the PR person, “Why did you say this?” I said, “I didn’t. AI said this.” AI said, “Your client’s book offers nothing new. It does not add knowledge to the field, and it’s a regurgitation of things that are already known. So my recommendation is, ‘Do not buy this book.'” Christopher S. Penn – 24:38 And so those book reviews never got published. Weird. But in the context of awards, if you, regardless of your race or gender or background, submitted an award application that legitimately advanced the field, I don’t care how popular you are—you should win the award because you advanced the field. Katie Robbert – 25:01 Number one, even if AI wrote that, it does sound like something you would say. Christopher S. Penn – 25:05 Absolutely. Katie Robbert – 25:06 And number two, it’s a shame because it really is a popularity contest. It doesn’t matter how far… Speaker 3 – 25:12 You’ve advanced the field. Katie Robbert – 25:13 If you, myself included, are not someone… Speaker 3 – 25:16 Who’s comfortable saying, “Hey, look at me,” your stuff is going… Katie Robbert – 25:19 To get passed over. And it’s just a shame. So I think, all to say, awards matter. Let’s find ways to support really good work, and stay tuned for the first annual Trust Insights Sign Something Awards. We don’t know yet. It’s TBD. Christopher S. Penn – 25:38 Yes, exactly. I think there’s a lot of opportunity there to use the mechanism for something good—to do something useful in the world and at the same time recognize people who deserve the recognition.

Just days after Charlie Kirk's assassination, I sit with Texas Marriage and Family Therapist Jonathan Cogburn for what becomes a profound exploration of faith, courage, and finding hope in dark times. Jonathan shares his journey from being apolitical to openly identifying as conservative, inspired by brave voices who showed him there's nothing shameful about his beliefs.We dive into systems theory concepts like pursuer-distancer patterns that explain both family dynamics and our current cultural moment, discussing how healthy conflict is necessary to prevent accumulated resentment. Jonathan reveals his patient approach to online discourse, treating people as capable of the change he hopes to see, while I grapple with questions of when charity becomes naive.Our conversation weaves through theological perspectives on human worth, the intersection of therapy and faith, and how Christianity offers a practical framework for living with our flawed nature. We tackle the thorny question of whether consequences for those glorifying violence constitute "cancel culture" or a necessary reset of social norms. This episode captures the wrestling many of us are doing right now - how to maintain hope, express truth, and build bridges while protecting ourselves and those we love.Jonathan Cogburn is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in West Texas who currently works for an agency that provides a variety of support to school districts in his area In that role he delivers state-required mental health training to districts, supports rural school counselors and homeless student liaisons, and co-leads a team of licensed professionals and school counselors that respond to crises and disasters.

Scottish poet and writer Jenny Lindsay's artistic career was derailed when she spoke out against the violent tactics used by gender identity activists. Today, Jenny is the author of "Hounded: Women, Harms and the Gender Wars," and her story illustrates what she calls the "secondary harms" of gender ideology - the ripple effects that occur when competent voices are silenced through systematic harassment campaigns.We explore how Jenny went from being "one of Scotland's leading performance poets" to being completely ostracized from the Scottish arts scene, not for discussing gender issues directly, but simply for defending women's right to meet and discuss proposed legal changes. Her experience reveals the parasitic nature of this ideology as it hollows out liberal institutions from within.Jenny breaks down what she identifies as the three core beliefs that get women labeled as "TERFs": that women are a materially definable category, that we have rights based on this reality, and that we deserve freedom of speech on matters affecting us. We discuss the psychological tactics of this movement, the economic warfare against dissenting voices, and why competent women across fields are being systematically targeted. This conversation examines not just what we're losing when reality becomes negotiable, but what happens to a society that rewards ideological conformity over truth-telling and competence.Jenny Lindsay is a writer, poet and essayist based in Scotland. She has a weekly column in The Scotsman and writes for numerous publications including The Spectator, The Daily Mail, and The Times. Her debut book Hounded: Women, Harms and the Gender Wars was published to great acclaim by Polity in 2024, being described as 'one of the most important political books ever to have been written about Scottish culture and politics,' by The Herald, and 'one of the definitive chronicles of these times,' by author JK Rowling. A former poetry performer and live literature programmer, she gained several accolades in the arts prior to her own 'hounding' over gender identity issues in Scotland, including a John Byrne award for Critical Thinking for her film-poem The Imagined We in early 2020, and a Creative Edinburgh Award for Leadership in 2017.Get Jenny's book on AmazonFollow on X @msjlindsay Read Jenny's Substack, The Schism Ring00:00 Core Beliefs and the Hounding Phenomenon06:49 The Existential Question of Gender Identity12:53 Understanding Core Beliefs and Their Implications18:07 The Parasitic Nature of Ideologies24:44 The Sociopathic Dynamics of Hounding32:44 The High Road vs. The Low Road41:33 The Personal Toll of Ideological Conflicts45:54 The Edinburgh Arts Scene and Its Challenges52:56 Cultural and Economic Impacts of Activism01:01:24 The Intersection of Gender and Racial Dialogues01:09:20 Hope Amidst Ongoing Struggles01:19:28 Navigating the Future of DiscourseROGD REPAIR Course + Community gives concerned parents instant access to over 120 lessons providing the psychological insights and communication tools you need to get through to your kid.
