In this episode, Dr. Jim Van Gelderen recounts a week when every vehicle he relied on broke down at once, leaving him overwhelmed and unsure how to move forward. While wrestling with the pressure of unmet needs, God used Colossians 2:6–7 to redirect his heart: the life of faith isn't powered by human problem-solving but by abounding with thanksgiving. As Dr. Jim began thanking God for the very things that were weighing him down, peace replaced panic and God provided in unmistakable ways. His story shows that genuine faith doesn't start when circumstances improve. Faith begins with “Thank You.”Topics DiscussedAn avalanche of vehicle breakdowns and impossible logisticsThe human tendency to try to figure everything out instead of walk by faithHow Colossians 2:6–7 ties faith and thanksgiving togetherThe difference between thanking God for blessings and thanking Him for burdensWhy thanksgiving is an act of faith, not a feelingHow choosing gratitude transforms your spirit in the middle of difficultyGod's surprising provision of a truck and SuburbanWhy the spiritual breakthrough mattered more than the material answersKey TakeawaysYou received Christ by faith, and you walk in Him the same way: by trusting Him enough to thank Him even before the answers come.Thanksgiving is not a reaction to good circumstances; it is the expression of faith that God is working when you cannot see how.When you choose to say “thank You” in the middle of pressure, God lifts the weight and gives grace that changes everything.Referenced ResourcesShort Clip: “Abounding Faith”The brief clip Dr. Jim saw on WhatsApp status from Bobby Bosler.Youtube Short, Instagram Reel, Facebook Reel, TikTok ShortFull Sermon: “Abounding with Thanksgiving”The full message Dr. Jim mentioned, unpacking Colossians 2:6–7 and the connection between faith and gratitude.Listen on Spotify, Listen on Apple Podcasts If you've been encouraged by this podcast, please take the time to give us a five-star rating and write a brief review.

Episode 167 - The Gallic Sack of Rome - Part 2We rejoin the Romans and the Gauls in 390 BCE at the place where the Tiber river intersects with the Alia river. Turns out that when a bunch of Fabians upset the Gauls, those Gauls decide to march south towards Rome… How many Gauls and how many Romans met at the rivers' edge? Well, the numbers are probably unreliable but the Romans are pretty sure they are outnumbered.The Battle at the AliaThere seems to be a few issues at this moment including the Roman failure to build a proper camp and - even worse - failure to take the auspices. Is this some foreshadowing from our friend Livy?Stay tuned for a discussion of the slim layout of the Roman forces. Brennus, the putative leader of the Gauls, seems to be uncertain that there may be some secret tactic or force that he hasn't been able to account for. There's also the problem of which bank of the river the battle takes place on which may influence where Roman forces end up. Will the Romans take the day or will they flail in the face of the Gallic strength? Are there some tactics involved that scholars can discern from the literary accounts that aren't immediately obvious?The Roman Retreat When the day goes against Rome, the retreat seems to be chaotic. Some of the Romans retreat to Rome, which makes sense, and some retreat to Veii. This creates a host of uncertainty for the Romans who survive particularly those who head back to Rome and don't find their comrades there. The assumption of Roman losses is significant.The Gauls meanwhile continue to suspect that there is a surprise attack from the Romans coming, but after some time they decide it's worth marching on Rome just to see what they can see. Things to listen out for:Gauls getting ‘organised' after AliaThe priestesses of Vesta get involvedGeneral Akbar and the Gauls coming togetherThe role of the citadel on the Capitoline HillThe Gauls confused about Rome - the city?How does the levy of the Roman army work in this moment?The security of the sacred objects of RomeThe Vestal Virgins on the move!What happens to the eldest noble Romans now the Gauls are at the gatesLucius Albinus - 'the noble Plebeian'?For our full show notes and edited transcripts, head on over to https://partialhistorians.com/Support the showPatreonKo-FiRead our booksRex: The Seven Kings of RomeYour Cheeky Guide to the Roman Empire Hosted on Acast.

How did a Victorian priest become the first person to scientifically describe a dinosaur, revolutionize paleontology through the study of fossilized poop, and terrify students by shoving hyena skulls in their faces while screaming about stomachs?

What if the very things Satan uses to whisper, “you're too broken, too messy, too late” are the exact things God wants to use to bless His children?In this episode of the Memoirs of an LDS Servant Teacher Podcast, Maurice Harker (founder of Life Changing Services and creator of the Spiritual Psychology Masterclass) dives into the psychology behind fear, perfectionism, and “I'll just mess it up” thinking. From mission stories in Detroit to the story of Martin Harris and the 116 pages, Maurice explains how perfect love casteth out fear and why God invites us into His work knowing full well that we are still in process.You'll hear powerful insights on seeing yourself as one vital chess piece on God's board, learning when to move and when to “hold still,” and why your anger at the pain in the world is actually a form of Christlike love when it drives you to get tools to those who are suffering. Maurice and Markel also share about their new “Phase 3” effort—a project to turn deeply wounded, resilient Latter-day Saint women into an army of healers and creators who bring hope to others.

Your content might be exceptional. But if you're ignoring digital PR, you're invisible where it increasingly matters most — in AI-powered search results that your highest-value prospects are using to make purchasing decisions.The businesses dominating in 2026 won't be the ones with the best SEO alone. They'll be the ones who've mastered the new digital PR playbook that builds visibility across traditional search, AI platforms, and third-party publications simultaneously.In this episode, Charlie Marchant (CEO) and Dale Davies (Head of Marketing) reveal:Why digital PR has evolved beyond link building into a multi-channel strategy encompassing brand mentions, thought leadership, and AI visibility — and how the smartest brands are orchestrating all these elements togetherThe exact framework for building a digital PR strategy that works across both traditional search and AI platforms — including how to identify target publications, create compelling story angles, and secure placements that drive actual business resultsReal campaign breakdowns from award-winning work, including how we generated over 11,000 leads in 12 months for DSLD Mortgage and made ZUGU the top-recommended iPad case across multiple AI platformsWhy B2B companies can achieve remarkable digital PR results through industry surveys, benchmark reports, awards, and thought leadership — with specific tactics for positioning executives as go-to expert sourcesThe critical measurement shift happening right now: from counting links alone to tracking brand mentions, AI citation visibility, and sentiment across third-party publicationsHow to reverse-engineer your competitors' digital PR success by analysing their backlink profiles and the citations appearing in AI responses for your key topicsAs Charlie explains in the pod:"Digital PR is becoming even more important than it was, and I don't want to undervalue how important it has been because it's underpinned many a successful organic search campaign for years, decades, if we're honest. It's becoming even more important now and moving into 2026 because AI and LLMs reference offsite content much more than they reference your own website."If you're ready to build a digital PR strategy that positions your brand for success across every channel where your customers make purchasing decisions, this episode provides your complete roadmap for 2026 and beyond.

In this Hot Topic episode of The Neurodivergent Experience, Jordan James and Simon Scott respond to the growing media push to divide the autism spectrum — including a recent New York Times article that introduced the term “profound autism.”They make it clear: the issue isn't with autistic people who have higher support needs — it's with the language, labels, and ableist frameworks used to define them. Jordan and Simon explore how separating the spectrum into categories like “high” and “low functioning” or “profound” and “mild” only deepens stigma, misunderstanding, and division within the autistic community.Together, they discuss:Why the “profound autism” label is harmful and reductiveThe New York Times article that reignited this debateHow language shapes perception, policy, and empathyThe autism spectrum is an umbrella that unites, not dividesWhy all autistic experiences — regardless of support needs — belong togetherThe need for compassion, inclusion, and respect across the entire spectrumThis episode calls out fear-based narratives and reframes the conversation around what truly matters: understanding, dignity, and unity for every autistic person — no matter where they sit under the spectrum umbrella.Our Sponsors:
Send us a textWhat if you gave yourself permission to dream bigger?We spend so much time answering questions about our patients, our practice, our responsibilities. But when was the last time someone asked you questions just about you? Not you as a physician. Not you as a professional. Just... you.In this episode, we're doing something different. I'm inviting you to sit down with me—imagine we're in a cozy space, maybe sipping something warm—and explore seven powerful questions together. These aren't clinical questions or administrative puzzles. These are the kind of questions that crack open possibilities you didn't know existed.Why this matters nowRecently, I attended a celebration of life for a neighbor who died far too young. Her wife, a physician, shared how cardiovascular disease took her suddenly. As I sat there, I couldn't help but think about how we spend our time, what we prioritize, and whether we're living in alignment with what truly matters to us.We're so practiced at ignoring our own desires, our own needs, our own dreams. We've been trained to see self-care as selfish and ambition as ego. But what if that's exactly backwards?How to use this episodeThis isn't a typical listen-and-forget episode. I want you to actually engage with these questions. You can:Speak your answers out loud in the carJournal through them in a quiet momentDiscuss them with a trusted friendSchedule a call with me to explore them togetherThe magic happens when you let yourself answer honestly, without judgment, without immediately jumping to "but that's not practical."The Seven "What If" QuestionsWhat if I didn't need to make any money? How would you spend your time if income wasn't a factor? This opens up what you'd choose versus what you feel obligated to do.What if I couldn't fail? What would you attempt if success was guaranteed? This reveals the desires you're holding back because of fear.What if I chose to love myself more? How would your daily choices change if you treated yourself with the same unconditional love you give others?What if I knew when I was going to die? Would you spend this much time at work? Would you over-perfect everything? This question cuts through to what you don't want to regret.What if I believed their actions? Whether it's believing when people show they don't value you, or when they show they genuinely want to help—what would change?What if only my desires mattered? Not to ignore others, but to remove the external noise and hear what you actually want. You're not the only solution for your patients, even though they've told you that you are.What if I chose to keep it easy? What if you didn't make everything so complicated, so perfect, so systematic? How would that simplify your decisions?The exercise that changes everythingI challenge you to pick just one of these questions and let yourself really sit with it this week.

A candid conversation with high school engineer and FIRST Robotics alum Natalie Macias about curiosity, consistency, and carving out room for young makers inside a sometimes closed-off industry. We talk early exposure to CAD and flight sims, why manufacturing is the first mile of everything, the lemon tree lesson on failure, and how leaders can be firm yet flexible.

For the Glory KC is back with the 142nd episode of the show!Sporting Kansas City didn't get the much-needed win against San Diego FC. It's not unexpected when a team well below the playoff line plays the best team in the conference it may not work out. Sure, they lost 2-0, but I'm here to tell you they actually executed their gameplan exceptionally well. Their chances just didn't go in. The dominated the expected goal (xG) battle, but the only number most will care about is the final score.However, there are positives that can be taken away from the loss and things to look forward to in the final nine games of the MLS season. Sheena and I will get into more detail in the episode, but those things are:The Jake Davis/Zorhan Bassong double pivotSantiago Munoz and Dejan Joveljic starting togetherThe return of Robert Voloder (he made such a difference)As a bonus category, we look closer at the 4-4-2 and decide if it should be that, or another formation for the rest of the year.Beyond those keys, we also discuss the flopping of San Diego FC, the poorly officiated game from Pierre-Luc Lauziere (which may have literally led to injuries), updates on other injuries (Erik Thommy in particular) and a bunch of other topics from the game.In the SKC Round-Up, we covered the newest Sporting KC signing (Alan Montes) and his brief debut, the departure of Dany Rosero, some Mike Burns transfer window quotes and the news my colleague Thad Bell broke that the $500k in GAM from the William Agada trade does not expire.The KC Current played twice since our last episode, both of which were wins. First, they beat Racing Louisville then they took down the Utah Royals. Both were victories on the road. But there was a ton of other KC Current news:Vanessa DiBernardo is pregnant and on maternity leaveAlly Sentnor arrives in the biggest trade in NWSL historyKatie Scott is out on loan to Racing LouisvilleKayla Sharples re-signed through 2027 with an option for 2028and Temwa Chawinga is up for the Ballon d'OrIn the Digital Crawl, we kept it brief on a few more topics, including:SKC II's first two winsSean Nahas is fired by the North Carolina CourageBenny and the Roots slip against Colorado SpringsHere is a rundown of topics and start times:Sporting KC dominate, and lose - 5:49SKC make a signing with more to come - 49:23KC Current win twice and make a ton of news - 59:47Digital Crawl - 1:24:34Upcoming GamesKC Current vs Orlando Pride, Sat.

Hello and welcome back to The Psychology Sisters Unfiltered!!Love and leaves Love – Carmen's black truffle popcorn Leaves Dyson vacuums Aimee's peek: time with family and friends lately and pit: experiencing social awkwardness and anxiety, which is very new and uncharted waters to navigate. In a clunky stage of life at the moment!! Also, illness has plagued me!Kat's pit: slapped in the face with sneaky burn out that crept up. Struggling with motivation, exhaustion, struggling to show up for work and life and not prepared for the busyness of work. Doing a lot of inner work to let go of perfectionism and high expectations. Peek: giving myself permission to not please, to honour the parts of me that need aloneness and disconnection to fill my cup. It has been healing to let go and disconnect. In celebration of our 5 year business anniversary, we are sharing Our top business lessons!1. Communication is key and own your mistakes. Accountability is leadership. Owning your mistakes doesn't make you less professional, it makes you trustworthy. It signals to your clients, your team, and your community that you're human, that you care, and that you're willing to do better. The truth is, your clients, and your community feel safer around someone who can own their impact.Being direct, firm, assertive and honest in communication. Being able to trust and rely on other people to hand over control. Reliability is SO important.2. People will judge you - do it anyway! The simple truth is that people will judge you, however, when we are led by fear of judgement we restrict our own growth and prevent ourselves from taking opportunities. The purpose is not to be universally liked, it's to take the opportunity whether you're liked or not.You take back your power when you stop trying to please everyone and connect to vulnerability. 3.Time is your greatest commodity and resource, protect it! Your time is sacred, audit your calendar like your life depends on it. Giving away your time without intention is like stealing from your own business. Boundaries are a practice of self-respect.If you want to go fast go alone - if you want to go far, go togetherThe health of our business depends on the health of our friendship, it's hard to separate but leaning into our very different strengths and working to our strengths is helpful. Going into business together has been our smartest investment to date.

What makes a vocal feel perfectly placed… or totally disconnected?This week, we're getting way past plugin chains and diving into the real work of vocal mixing: context. We're talking about how to make vocals live in a mix, not just sit on top of it. Because getting a vocal to shine isn't just about EQ moves - it's about storytelling, space, and knowing who gets the spotlight in each moment.We explore how we mix vocals completely differently - yet still aim for the same emotional clarity - and even find ourselves (gasp) passionately disagreeing about Vampire Weekend.Discover:Why the instrumental is the first thing we fix when vocals don't feel rightThe “lead vocal vs. background vocal” question we think is kind of a trapThe one question Carl asks in every section of every songWhen to make vocals felt not heard (and how that changes your mix decisions)Why we don't always high-pass vocals—and what we do insteadThe subtle sidechain trick that helps your vocals breathe without boosting themWhen sharing reverbs between vocals and instruments makes your mix snap togetherThe difference between using reverb for space vs. characterCarl's favorite compressor to kill backing vocal transients (in a good way)What mixing has to do with stage plays, ransom letters, and emotional punchBen and Carl's Weekly Inspiration Playlist - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1IpnxDVoTY44JBV1j19H4h?si=0f80e020d8ae497eLA Wildfire Relief:Musicares - https://donor.musicares.org/page/lafirereliefWAMTN - https://give.wearemovingtheneedle.org/campaign/654724/donateLearn more about StudioLand - https://www.welcometostudioland.com/a/2147995182/bmyFf8p5Download our free guide: "The Future-Proof Mixing Engineer: 8 Essential Skills for 2024 and Beyond" - https://mpe-ebook.benwallick.com/future-proof-mixingConnect with us:Secret Sonics - https://www.instagram.com/secretsonicsBen - https://www.instagram.com/benwallickmusic/Carl - https://www.instagram.com/carlbahner/Learn more:https://www.benwallick.com/https://www.carlbahner.com/This episode with edited by Gavi Kutliroff - https://www.instagram.com/pleasant_peasant_music/
In this bonus episode of The Filmumentaries Podcast, I catch up with returning guest Paul King, who you might remember from our previous conversation about his Shining locations documentary, Shine On. This time, Paul's back with another nostalgic deep-dive — his new short documentary Beneath London: The Story of Alien War. We talk about the origins of the Alien-themed walkthrough experience that terrified visitors to London's Trocadero in the early 1990s, how Paul tracked down rare archive footage and the people who made it happen, and why he thinks this story still has the potential to grow into a feature-length film. Watch Paul's documentary on YouTube:Beneath London: The Story of Alien War In the episode, we cover:What Alien War was and how it came togetherThe strange story of how the creators got official backing from 20th Century FoxHow the experience pushed boundaries long before immersive cinema became a thingPaul's process of turning archival material and interviews into a compelling short filmI also share an update on my own documentary, Not Your Average Joe, about legendary Jaws production designer Joe Alves.

The financial industry is failing immigrant communities.Not because immigrants lack the ability to build wealth—But because most financial professionals lack the training to guide them.In this episode, I share the truth no one in finance is talking about:
In this episode, hosts Ron and Allison explore the biblical foundations of human identity, focusing on God's intentional creation of male and female. Drawing from Genesis and other Scripture passages, they delve into the profound theological, relational, and societal implications of humanity's design. This conversation addresses the beauty of gender differences, the complementarity between men and women, and how these truths impact marriages, families, and communities today.This is Part 1 of a two-part discussion intended to affirm the goodness of God's design amidst contemporary cultural confusion.Key Topics Covered:Biblical overview of gender in Genesis 1–2The significance of "male and female" in God's creation orderComplementarity vs. competition: how men and women are designed to work togetherThe impact of rejecting God's design on modern relationships and societyFoundations for building Christ-centered marriages that reflect God's imageFeatured Scripture References:Genesis 1:27 — "So God created mankind in His own image..."Genesis 2:18–25 — The creation of woman and the establishment of marriageMatthew 19:4–6 — Jesus' affirmation of Genesis in teaching about marriageNotable Quotes:“When God made us male and female, it wasn't arbitrary — it was essential to how we reflect His image to the world.”“True unity in marriage and community only comes when we embrace the distinct and complementary ways God has designed us.”
In this final episode of our Back to the Basics series, we bring together all the key concepts we've explored over the past eight episodes. From understanding your nervous system to creating a personalized path to healing, this episode serves as both a review and a roadmap for moving forward with confidence and clarity.In this episode, you'll learn:How all the pieces of the nervous system puzzle fit togetherThe ultimate framework for understanding and approaching anxiety and depressionPractical ways to apply this knowledge in your daily lifeHow to create a personalized, sustainable path to healing3 Takeaways (& their reflection questions):Whole-Human Approach: True healing comes from integrating both physiology and psychology - one that explores and acknowledges how your body, mind, relationships, and environment all interconnect in your mental health. Understanding the interplay between your nervous system, stress bucket, reactive and proactive regulation creates a comprehensive framework for healing that honors your unique experiences and needs. If you've been feeling stuck in your healing…Which area of your life (physical, mental, relational, or environmental) feels most neglected in your current healing approach, and what small step could you take to address it?Your Symptoms Likely Make Sense: Your symptoms make perfect sense given your past lived experiences and current life circumstances—they're not signs of brokenness but messages from a system trying to protect you and understanding this helps you shift from self-blame to self-compassion.How might your perspective shift if you approached your symptoms with curiosity rather than judgment, asking "what happened to me?" instead of "what's wrong with me?"If you were to apply the equation 'Current Nervous System State = Past Lived Experiences + Current Life Circumstances' to your own experience, what's one key insight you gain about why you might be struggling the way you are?Strategic Path Forward: Real healing comes from a balanced approach that includes both in-the-moment tools and deeper, proactive changes that address the root causes of dysregulation. The journey of healing, viewed through a nervous system lens, is ultimately about reconnecting with your authentic self, accessing your inner resources, and creating a life where you feel safe, resilient, and whole.What's one reactive tool you can practice this week when you notice dysregulation, and one proactive change you feel ready to explore to address something in your stress bucket?"What does 'coming home to yourself' mean to you, and what's one small practice or action you could incorporate into your daily life to cultivate a stronger sense of connection with yourself?"Looking for more personalized support?Book a FREE discovery call for RESTORE, our 1:1 anxiety & depression coaching program (HSA/FSA eligible & includes comprehensive bloodwork)Join me inside Regulated Living, a mental health membership and nervous system healing space (sliding scale pricing available)Order my book, Healing Through the Vagus Nerve today!*Want me to talk about something specific on the podcast?

"I think that it has gotten to a point where we've taken the racing out of racing. We've taken the sport and turned it into something else. Track is about racing. You have eight athletes on the track for a reason. You award a champion or award a winner of the race for a reason: because they outperformed everyone else. And that's not easy. That's one of my fears: that people will start to think that it's easy, because the winner is not really being highlighted for having won. They're being highlighted for having run a personal best. Ultimately, if you're not careful, you end up with this deconstructed competition where it's not about the athletes in the race… We're very excited about what we're bringing...I can't wait. That's what you want. One of the things that's funny to me is when I see people in the track world on social media talking about fantasy matchups. It's like: We have the real fantasy over here. It's real. It's not fantasy. It's actually happening."The countdown is on. We are just one month away from the launch of Grand Slam Track, a bold new league that promises to shake up the sport of track and field—and today, we're talking to the man behind it all, Michael Johnson.We've done multiple episodes with MJ as a four-time Olympic champion, world record holder and one of the most respected voices in the sport. If you haven't listened to those, I suggest you go back and do so. Our 2022 CITIUS MAG Live at Worlds interview with him is one of the best big picture conversations we've done on the state of the sport. Johnson has spent years analyzing what's missing in professional track. His solution? A structured, high-stakes, athlete-driven competition that puts rivalries, personalities, and pure racing at the forefront.With 48 signed Racers, a multi-platform media deal, and a $30 million investment, Grand Slam Track is designed to change how the sport operates, creating a true professional league that's built to last.Today, we dive into:How the league is strategically structuring itself to maximize the talent track What success really looks like in Year 1 from a business standpointInside the TV deal and how it came togetherThe lessons from other sports (even WWE) that can help track engage more fansAnd more on what to expect when the first meet kicks off in KingstonMichael Johnson isn't here to wait for change—he's making it happen.
