In this episode of In-Between Charges, Kevin and Mike sit down with Rami Syväri, advisor and founder at beY0nd, to unpack the evolving dynamics of performance, strategy, and resilience in the EV charging industry. With a rich background spanning Fortum, Swisscharge, and now advising CPOs across Europe, Rami brings a front-row perspective to what “good” really looks like in a CPO's operation, and where the industry still has work to do.Together, they dive deep into the importance of transparency, the power of benchmarking, and how operators can meaningfully compare themselves to peers without compromising sensitive data. Rami shares insights on building scalable, future-proof charging businesses, the operational maturity journey of CPOs, and why now, amidst market “hiccups,” is the time when tomorrow's winners are forged.From tech stack choices to the business case for ultra-slow charging, and from strategic pivots to trust-building through anonymized data models, this episode is a masterclass in navigating the high-stakes, fast-changing EV ecosystem.Key Topics:The DNA of CPO success and benchmarking KPIs that matterWhy ultra-slow charging might just be the next big thingThe "ketchup bottle effect" of delayed EV adoption and its implicationsPlatform vs. in-house software: when to build, when to partnerHow to prepare now for the next wave of growthTune in for a grounded, strategic look at where the EV industry is headed—and how to get there with confidence. Happy charging!
The great mystery was hidden throughout the ages until revealed to the Apostle Paul. If it was known, the evil rulers would not have crucified Jesus, and God's plan for humanity's redemption would have been thwarted. The inclusion of the Gentiles and the full significance of what Christ accomplished on the cross are part of the mystery that is now revealed in the Ephesians Epistle. Ephesians 3:1-9. What Christ accomplished for humanity was kept secret until Paul received it by revelation. Luke 9:44-45. God wanted the information concealed. Luke 18:31-34. Many things are written in the OT foretelling what Jesus would do and accomplish; however, much of it was hidden until Paul. Mark 8:31-33. Not only did Peter not understand what Jesus said, he also thought he was wrong. 1 Corinthians 2: 6-8. Had they understood, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. Ephesians 3:2. The word “stewardship” and “administration” in verse 9 are the same Greek word oikonomia. 3:4-5. Before, no one understood; now, we can understand. 1 Corinthians 2:6-16. Ephesians 3:6. Gentiles were now fellow heirs, members, partakers of the promise. Ephesians 2:12-22. 3:8. The riches are so deep, vast, and profound they can never be fully discovered until Christ returns. They are infinitely rich and abundant. Colossians 1:27. Christ in you Ephesians 3:10. Rulers and the authorities – 1:19-21; 6:12 3:11. The mystery explains God's purpose of the ages. 3:12. Only the high priest once a year had access to God. Now every disciple has direct, bold, and confident access to God. 3:13. Do not be discouraged I am in prison; rather, accept it is actually a glorious thingThe post Ephesians Part 5: The Mystery of Christ first appeared on Living Hope.
Notes from James:I've written 25 books—some huge hits, some total flops—and what I've learned is this: anyone can write a book, but not everyone gives themselves permission to start. This episode is the foundation. I break down the mindset, motivation, and structure you need to go from blank page to published book—even if you've never written a word before.So you want to write a book. Where do you even start? In this kickoff to my new series on writing and publishing a book in just 30 days, I walk you through everything you need to know before you ever touch the keyboard.This episode isn't just for aspiring authors—it's for anyone who's ever wanted to turn an idea into something real, something lasting, and maybe even something that launches a new career.

It's the single most powerful tool for crafting stories that actually move people.This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.

Email us at podcast@pursueGOD.org.Donate Now --Today's lesson is exciting, because there's something for everyone:Those who are into this topicPentecostals, charismaticsThose who are freaked out by this topicChristians from more chill religious backgroundsNon-denoms, mainlineThose who are new to ChristianityNot sure what we're even talking aboutStart with this: “baptism with the HS” from a pentecostal perspectiveThe concept gained particular prominence during the early 20th-century Pentecostal revival, beginning with the Azusa Street Revival in 1906. It emphasized a powerful, personal experience of God's presence and the manifestation of spiritual gifts.The Assemblies of God is one of the largest Pentecostal denominations in the world, founded in 1914 in Hot Springs, Arkansas.Foursquare Church - Founded in 1923 by evangelist Aimee Semple McPherson in Los Angeles, California.In the mid-20th century, this emphasis spread beyond Pentecostal denominations to the broader Charismatic movement which embraced similar experiences of the Holy Spirit.The Jesus Movement in the 60's and 70's, along with Calvary Chapel. The Vineyard Movement began in the late 1970s and was founded by John Wimber. The first Vineyard church was officially established in 1982 in Anaheim, California.Catholic charismatic movementHillsong, Bethel Church, etc.In these environments you'll hear about “baptism with the HS”There's one main evidence: speaking in tonguesSo it becomes a huge focus in these churchesOften becomes the main thingIt'll freak you out if you've never seen it beforeBut what does the Bible say about it? That's what we'll answer today: What is the purpose of baptism with the Holy Spirit?We don't believe things based on how weird or normal they seemWe look to God and his Word in all we do (and believe) First of all, “baptism with the HS” is in the Bible, not just made up by the pentecostals and charismaticsThe term was coined by Jesus! Acts 1:5 (NLT) “John baptized with water, but in just a few days you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.”This is why the disciples went back to JerusalemPracticed disciplines of connection, prayer, Bible studyWaited on God with great expectationBut not exactly sure what it would look likeBaptism with the HS was a biblical concept way before it was a pentecostal thingThe real question is what is the purpose? That's what our text will answer todayBecause the Pentecostal movement traces its roots back to Acts ch...

"I wanna say this about self-doubt, because self-doubt allowed me not to share my music for over a decade. Self-doubt is actually a tool. Self-doubt is a tool to create more confidence for yourself. It's kind of like...when you talk about light and darkness, you actually need darkness to help you find light."Aaron Wexler holds a lot of titles, but perhaps his most prominent is "Inspired."

What does “success” really look like in parenting? What is the end goal? What are we doing all this for? In this episode, I'm debriefing a huge step in my parenting journey and sharing two keys that have shaped my experience as a parent and my relationship with my kids. Yesterday I dropped off my oldest son for his first year of college – and transitioned him one step further on his journey towards independence.Then it hit me: THIS IS WHAT I'VE BEEN PREPARING FOR ALL ALONG. That point of graduating from high school and launching into adulthood is, in many ways, the finish line of parenting.I've been slowly moving Lincoln towards independence, responsibility and emotional health since he was 4 years old. That meant working on myself and calming my own emotional reactivity, so I didn't dump all my crap on him. It meant learning how to teach him emotional regulation through the practice of compassion, so he would learn what to do with all of his feelings too.I had to have firm limits with him. Let him make mistakes. Not rescue him. I'm still processing a lot of the thoughts and feelings around this big step, but I realized two key factors that made this transition easier for me and I wanted to share them with you right away. 2 Keys to Parenting SuccessYears and years of work have led us to this moment. It's why he's going to be ok. And it's why I know how to process all of this in real time – no stuffing, dumping, avoiding, projecting, or over-dramatizing any of it. Parenting Key #1: Embracing and processing your emotion is so importantLearning to process emotion, especially negative ones, is probably the single most valuable gift I've given myself over the past 19 years of motherhood. Being able to feel all my feelings has allowed me to truly be present for the experience of parenting and raising my boys. I was here for it. All of it. The good, the bad and the ugly. I'm so grateful for my willingness to get help when I needed it. To learn. To grow. To become. This is really where self-coaching begins. It's about noticing, allowing and soothing your emotion, and then finding new thoughts to help you move forward. Parenting Key #2: Celebrating your parenting achievements is a good thingThe hard work of “gentle parenting” is worth it. When you do the personal development work along with compassionate parenting, the result is a kid who feels very connected to you and has a lot of emotional health for themselves - Especially if you combine that connection with firm limits and restorative consequences.Years ago, I chose 3 parenting goals:My kids' emotional health and wellbeingMy relationship with my kidsMy own mental and emotional wellbeingAs Lincoln steps out on his own, I can honestly say I've achieved what I set out to do as a mom. And I'm letting myself be proud of it. I'm not skipping over it to the next thing or pushing myself for more or better. I'm just here in this moment, savoring and enjoying it. When you reach the “finish line”, it's okay to celebrate, to be proud of what you've accomplished. What Will Parenting Success Look Like For You?Ultimately, we want our kids not to need us. We will still be in a relationship, but as two adults who are able to manage their own emotions, move through obstacles and take care of themselves and their responsibilities.I invite you to explore these 2 takeaways yourself, by reflecting on the following questions. Are you letting yourself feel the feelings as they come up? Do you allow yourself to feel fully sad or mad or scared? Do you trust yourself to feel it all and let the feeling pass through you? Are you letting yourself feel proud...
How do we choose what to focus on?We can get caught up in indecision and overthinking things, and decision-making can be really difficult.In this season, Leo asks you to play along and focus on a project where you'll work with fear and resistance. But how do you choose a project?We'll take a look not only at how to choose a project, but how to choose anything. And how choosing from the heart (or gut) can be a powerful thing.Topics CoveredThe project Leo has chosen to work on in this season: his grandmother's bookSome ideas for projects you might choose for this seasonHow to deal with having multiple things you want to do — and how we get caught up in choosing the wrong thingHow we are choosing nothing when we don't chooseThe consequence of choosing multiple things at once, instead of one thingThe consequence of choosing one thing, but then doing it because you shouldThe real power of choosing something, devoting yourself and pouring your full heart into somethingThe distinction between choosing & decidingThe practice of choosing from the heartCalming your fearsLearning to let your heart have what it wants, and what happens when we do thatConnect with LeoZen HabitsYoutube channelX (Twitter) InstagramZen Habits Facebook GroupTiktok channelEmail leo@zenhabits.netResourcesThe Fearless Living AcademyCreditsIntro music composition: Salem Beladonna & Robrecht DumareyEditor: Justin Cruz
Do you ever feel like you're living in Groundhog Day where the events yesterday, feel like today, and you're probably going to have those same feelings tomorrow? The weeks are moving fast yet you don't feel like much is changing?If this is the case you might be in a rut. If I'm being honest, I'm coming out of a period of my life where I've felt like I've been in a rut. I've had my head down, hard at work. I'm really satisfied with most of the elements of my life right now but I have this underlying feeling of unease. I don't need to blow anything up but I've been looking for some change.Luckily, Les Alfred came into my life at the right time. This conversation gave me some ideas for embracing more spontaneity, mixing up routines, and busting out of my rut. Implementing her practical advice has me feeling like I'm headed in the right direction now.Les is the creator and host behind the wildly popular podcast, Balanced Black Girl where she covers various aspects of wellness with approachability and care.I'll be honest, I became a bit of a superfan after binging her show in preparation for this conversation and one of my favorite series she did was all about leveling up. The first half of this conversation we talk about practical tips for busting out of a rut but as we enter the second half of the episode, we talk about so many implementable concepts like time audits, your confidence account, and creating a brag file. I think all 3 of these concepts will level up your career so stick around until the end.Speaking up that, hit the follow button on your podcast player right now. We are finishing up the managing the things at work series next week with an episode about conquering your to-do and we are going to follow that up with a series on creative ways to expand your professional network.

When I was the sports reporter for BBC Radio 1 for 8 years, I spent a lot of time talking to and hearing from an exhaustive list of Premier League managers. One of them stood out above the rest for entertainment value – and that was Ian Holloway when he was in charge of Blackpool FC.Ian Holloway is clearly a naturally funny man – and he also has a depth and emotional sensitivity that you can't help but warm to.A driving theme of this podcast is ego – and not letting the idea you have about yourself get in the way. Ian opens up about how hard he has been on himself throughout his life, and self-critical – so much so that he once had to take down all the mirrors in his house because he didn't like looking at himself.We also talk about emotional intelligence – and the time Ian went on a BBC programme called Stress Test to learn how to calm his temper down, at a time when showing vulnerability like that wasn't as in vogue as it is now. Ian shares about how his experiences have helped him grow and evolve, not least looking after his wife through serious illness as well as raising three profoundly deaf children. As he says, we all get challenges and difficulties in life – and it's about how we cope with them that matters.In this episode we discuss:Relationships are the most important thingThe best phrase for dealing with someone who is giving you stickEgo and how it leads us astrayEmotional intelligence and what Ian Holloway learned going on the BBC programme The Stress Test Some of the biggest challenges in Ian's life and how we all have difficulties, and it's how we react that's importantWhen Ian's Dad died – and the transcendental experiences Ian subsequently hadSelf-care and the importance of doing something for yourselfRecognising the feelings underneath anger – like a fear of failure or not being good enoughThe wisdom of Graham TaylorLaughter is the best medicineIan ranting about the Qatar World Cup: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k6PacW2fJV0Ian's book: How to Be a Football Manager - Enter the hilarious and crazy world of the gafferhttps://www.waterstones.com/book/how-to-be-a-football-manager-enter-the-hilarious-and-crazy-world-of-the-gaffer/ian-holloway/9781472298591**MyTwitter: https://twitter.com/simonmundieInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/simonmundie/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/simon-mundie-89379114/And for the 'Mundie on Monday' newsletter - featuring three of the best Life Lessons from four years and 200 of these conversations - head to simonmundie.com (where you can also drop me an email)Please do share this episode - it makes a big difference in helping people find this podcast.Thank you.

This week's episode dives into a modality that I've always been super curious about – EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) - also known as Tapping. EFT is a treatment that involves tapping on certain meridian points and repeating statements from the certified professional guiding you through the session. It's a beautiful synergy between the mystical, heartfelt healing modes and the scientifically proven nerve calming methods. Science + Mystical = YES! Lauren came to tapping as many of us get to our healing, through our own drive to heal and grow. Our journey tends to lead us to exactly the right places, and Lauren shares how she got there and so much more. On the show we discuss: Listening to your body's signalsHow bad feelings are your body's way of communicating messagesWhy awakenings can be your invitation to explore and growTesting and learning various modalities and how they can lead you to what works for youRealizing that when we are upset, these are often triggers and the underlying problem may be a deeper issue that is asking to be healedSometimes what needs healing is something you aren't even cognitively aware ofHow through EFT, subconscious thoughts can be brought to the surface allowing for healingHow acupressure/acupuncture relate to EFTWhat meridians are and how they relate to the energy in our bodiesHow EFT allows us to actually feel our feelings – even the hard ones and why it's a good thingThe science behind tapping and how the amygdala is calmed when tapping, reducing cortisone levels, how it regulates the nervous system How tapping can help kidsHow you can tap discreetly to calm yourself in a public situationHow tapping can create overall wellbeing as well as solve specific problemsHow tapping can dig into physical pain and identify the source of the painListen while we have our own tapping session for anxiety and stressWhy you shouldn't worry if your stress goes up when you first start tapping Obvi we cover a LOT! Loved learning about this and have started integrating tapping through Lauren's amazing videos into my own wellness routine. It's all about finding what resonates with you - and I encourage you to give this a go if you've been struggling with anxiety, trauma recovery or just want to feel calm and centered.
