    272. Contention vs. Conversation

    In Episode 272: Contention vs. Conversation, I explore a question that has come up repeatedly in my coaching sessions with missionaries: Does avoiding difficult conversations really create peace? Many missionaries have been taught that contention is not of Christ, but sometimes that belief leads them to stay silent, hide their thoughts, or avoid necessary conversations altogether. In this episode, we look more closely at what the scriptures actually teach about contention and why disagreement isn't the same thing as being contentious. Together, we'll explore the difference between cowering, controlling, and collaborating—three very different ways of approaching conflict and communication. I explain why shrinking yourself isn't the same as meekness, why trying to force someone to agree with you isn't Christlike leadership, and how healthy conversations can preserve both honesty and agency. We'll also look at Doctrine and Covenants 121, discuss the emotions that fuel our conversations, and walk through practical questions you can ask yourself before deciding whether a difficult conversation is necessary. If you've ever worried that speaking up might create contention, or if you've struggled to know when to have a conversation and when to simply let something go, I hope Episode 272: Contention vs. Conversation gives you greater clarity and confidence. My hope is that you'll discover that true peace isn't created by avoiding hard conversations—it's created by approaching them with humility, love, and a willingness to collaborate rather than control. As always, if you found this episode helpful, I want to invite you to subscribe if you aren't already, share this episode with your friends and missionaries you know, and write a review.

I'm super excited to introduce you all to Jeff Campbell. Jeff is a digital marketing veteran and e-commerce entrepreneur and professor at Wake Forest University. His strategic vision and operational approach have led multiple successful business acquisitions and exits. Jeff currently leads AI Commerce, a global digital agency focused on marketplaces and e-commerce, which he co-founded in 2020. So with that introduction, welcome to the show, Jeff.Jeff 00:00:31  Thanks for having me, Josh. I'm excited.Josh 00:00:32  What is there anything that you've done with your agency or with previous experience to really start turning a business that the average order for? I guess the average number of orders per customer, instead of it being one, you start increasing it to 2 to 3 because that's where you start to get this flywheel of, all right, I can spend I could even spend more to acquire this customer that it's not even break even. I'm losing money on the front end, but I make it up in the long in the long run. So are there any strategies or advice you would share to our listeners in order to help get those second, third, fourth sales and repeat purchases?Jeff 00:01:14  Yeah, I can't stress enough how important first party data is, specifically email addresses.Jeff 00:01:19  So if you can get them to your website to somehow register a product or an, you know, there's some rules with Amazon, you know how how you can get information, what you can stick in the box, etc. but, figure that out because I think that first party data is going to be so crucial for brand owners in the future for targeting as as privacy laws will hopefully come out soon. And, and, and the data sharing of of the platforms are probably going to stay heavily with the platform. So, here and now, rant over about one p data. You know, Amazon and most of these platforms have some sort of retargeting, right. So if you know that you're you're hawking air filters and they go out every three months and you need a replacement. Use your email database if you have it, use some of the the first party data of your platforms. Be it Amazon or Walmart. A lot of that does take some DSP work, which comes with a higher price tag. But retargeting is one strong, strong way to to remind people about the previous purchase and time to to repurchase.Jeff 00:02:24  I think that's probably the big one. Again, the email relationship and again, having first party data to be able to do that and then from there create and lookalike models. Right. So understanding the behaviors of those folks and starting to target people, to make maybe their first purchase because they look a lot, a lot like or they act and behave like, past purchasers of yours too. Works really well for that initial. And then you can retarget them as well.Josh 00:02:49  Yeah, it makes great sense. I love that now, Jeff. I would love to dive in further into these profitability or just overall metrics that people should be tracking that become those mile markers that lead to scale. And let's dive deep into what each of those, you know, metrics mean and how, you know, let's say take an an Amazon e-commerce seller today, how they should be tracking them now, and maybe some of the tools they should be using to make sure that they're setting up the correct foundation.Jeff 00:03:20  Sure, sure.Jeff 00:03:22  so, you know, I, I'd really look at making sure you are tracking the standard, you know, impressions, clicks, click through rate, you know, cost, CPC, etc.. we always want to look at that variability as CPC. That's really important. some, some of the other ones, the new to brand metrics where you can get them, the cost per orders and kind of go into that customer acquisition cost and LTV. so CPO cost per order is, is important. and then as we as we know, especially with Amazon and some of the other marketplaces are starting to do this. The reliance and relationship between paid and organic. The more you pay to get some keyword wins, the more you're going to see yourself organic. So you have to compile some of those sales from both paid and organic channels against the cost of the advertising, because there is a relationship there. So looking at that total Roas or that total ACOs or tacos, as the hungry people like to say is important as well.Jeff 00:04...

    Adoption, Not Hardware: Voya Financial Shows AI Value Comes From Training, Not Tools

    A disconnect between technical capability and end-user adoption is driving current decision-making in AI and infrastructure among managed service providers and IT leaders. While companies like Broadcom, Perplexity, Apple, and NVIDIA are introducing hardware and platforms for on-premises and local AI processing, the primary lever for value remains organizational adoption rather than available technology. Costs and infrastructure investments are being shaped by how—and whether—users engage with these tools. The most significant evidence is from Voya Financial, where a five-hour AI training for 11,000 employees led to 98% adoption and frequent use, despite no change in underlying technology. Industry data cited shows that while generative AI now reaches 80% of occupations, only 2.8% of tasks have more than 50% usage, and none reach 70%. This indicates broad awareness but little real transfer of work to AI, making current spending primarily reflective of shallow adoption rather than deep operational change. Additional developments include a clear industry shift toward privately owned AI infrastructure, as shown by recent product launches and by NVIDIA's ongoing focus on cloud-rented compute. Gartner projects that consumption-based and inference-specific storage will expand rapidly by 2029, but these estimates are based on limited current adoption, underlining a mismatch between infrastructure readiness and immediate need. For MSPs and IT providers, the risk is overcommitting to AI infrastructure before clients are ready. Real opportunity lies in structured adoption programs for existing AI tools—identifying staff with teaching skills, piloting training internally, and focusing on increasing client usage. Deferring on-premises AI infrastructure projects until client adoption and economic signals align is positioned as a safer, more pragmatic approach. 00:00 Three Companies, One Idea 04:20 Nobody Turned It On 07:53 The Window Opens In 2029 10:46 Why Do We Care?

    In this The CIRS Group Podcast episode, hosts Jacie and Barbara interview Max McCord, an indoor environmental professional and president of the Stonecrest Team, about why mold remediation projects can fail even after visible mold is removed. Max explains that the biggest misses are often hidden, hard-to-see species like whitish Aspergillus, and that relying on basic air sampling can wrongly suggest a home is “clear,” while PCR-based testing, such as ERMI dust tests, can reveal what was missed.  He describes using detailed building history, CIRS-focused building science, macro photography, and advanced thermography to identify microclimates, insulation and vapor issues, and other hidden sources. The conversation also covers common containment and demolition mistakes that spread contamination, why coordination among IEPs, remediators, HVAC and insulation contractors matters, and how post-remediation “clearance” can be undone during remodeling by contaminated tools and materials.

    Have an idea or tip? Send us a text!AI can generate a believable image in seconds, so why does real photography still matter, and how do working photographers protect what they create? We're joined by Angela Kurkian, CEO of Professional Photographers of America (PPA), to talk about the parts of the job that don't show up in a highlight reel: Building a sustainable photography business, finding community, and defending your rights as a creator.Kurkian and Gary Pageau of The Dead Pixels Society dig into what makes PPA different as one of the oldest nonprofit photography associations, including the mission to support photographers as small business owners and the idea of serving both the creative artist and the business warrior. She shares her own path through the industry, what she learned in a high-volume studio, and why so many photographers struggle when pricing becomes a guessing game. Kurkian also get practical about tools and benchmarks that help you plan revenue, cost of sales, expenses, and owner pay so a photographer's rates match the life they desire.Kurkian also talks about industry pressure points, like AI in photography and copyright. She explains why PPA's advocacy in Washington, DC focuses on intellectual property, what photographers misunderstand about copyright registration, and why AI-generated headshots and images raise real ownership and enforcement questions. We also cover where to get vetted education and community support through PPA, including Photovision and local networks.The Dead Pixels Society Podcast is powered by ScanMyPhotos, serving the photo industry for more than 30 years.ScanMyPhotosScanMyPhotos provides professional digitization services for photos, negatives, slides, and more Energize your sales with Shareme.chat, the proven texting platform. ShareMe.Chat ShareMe.Chat platform uses chat-to-text on your website to keep your customers connected and buying!MediaclipMediaclip strives to continuously enhance the user experience while dramatically increasing revenue.Independent Photo ImagersIPI is a member + trade association and a cooperative buying group in the photo + print industry.Buzzsprout - Let's get your podcast launched!Start for FREEPhoto Imaging CONNECTThe Photo Imaging CONNECT conference, March 2027, at the RIO Hotel and Resort in Las Vegas, NScanMyPhotosScanMyPhotos provides professional digitization services for photos, negatives, slides, and moreDisclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

    What brings the next major wave of capital into crypto? After ICOs, stablecoins, and Bitcoin ETFs opened the door to institutional adoption, OKX Global Chief Commercial Officer Lennix Lai believes tokenization and AI agents could help drive the next evolution of the crypto market. In this episode, Lennix breaks down how tokenized stocks, real-world assets, and traditional finance are beginning to merge with DeFi, and why putting assets onchain could unlock entirely new financial products rather than simply recreate Wall Street on blockchain rails.~~~~~⁠⁠⁠⁠

    What will it take for philanthropy to unlock the extraordinary potential of 501(c)(4)s? In this episode, co-hosts Glen Galaich and Ralph Lewin, Executive Director of the Peter E. Haas Jr. Family Fund, challenge the fake rules telling philanthropy to stay neutral, avoid risk, stick to funding 501(c)(3)s, and keep political work at arm's length. They're joined by Leah Greenberg, Co-Founder and Co-Executive Director of Indivisible, a nationwide movement of everyday people organizing across all 50 states. Leah pulls back the curtain on what happens after the protest: local organizing, voter registration, advocacy, mutual aid, relationship-building, and the hard work of turning moments of public anger into sustained political participation. She also challenges funders to stop treating 501(c)(3) status as a moral status and to take seriously what well-resourced 501(c)(4) work can unlock. Together, Leah, Ralph, and Glen pose a sharper question to philanthropy: if the goal is real democratic change, are funders willing to back the people actually organizing to win?

Adding one more upsell step to a checkout page that's already three pages too long. And they'll tell you they're "working on their business." They're not. They're hiding.

    Artificial intelligence is already changing how pastors research, write, communicate, and manage the practical demands of ministry. But does using AI necessarily make a preacher less faithful, less authentic, or less dependent upon God?Mike Neglia speaks with pastor, theologian, and AI developer Miles DeBenedictis about the opportunities and ethical challenges that artificial intelligence presents for Christian ministry. Rather than offering either uncritical enthusiasm or fearful rejection, Miles encourages pastors to think carefully about authorship, disclosure, human responsibility, and the nature of consciousness itself.The conversation explores practical uses of AI in sermon preparation and church administration, including research assistance, prayer-request processing, Bible translation, and tools that can preserve more time for prayer, pastoral care, and the ministry of the Word. Mike and Miles also consider the dangers of pastoral deepfakes, cloned voices, deceptive content, autonomous AI agents, and outsourcing the spiritual and intellectual work that belongs to the preacher.At the heart of the episode is a deeper theological question: what does it mean to be human? Miles argues that the church needs a robust biblical anthropology—grounded in the image of God—if it is going to respond wisely to claims about machine intelligence and artificial consciousness.The episode concludes with a practical look at SermonBrief, a research tool designed to assist preachers without writing their sermons for them, and a memorable reminder that AI generally amplifies the habits, convictions, and character already present in the person using it.Special offer for Expositors Collective listenersReceive 20% off SermonBrief for your first year with the code:EXPOSITORSLearn more and sign up:SermonBriefhttps://sermonbrief.com/About Miles DeBenedictisMiles DeBenedictis is the senior pastor of Cross Connection Church in Escondido, California, where he has served since 2008.

    What if the secret to leading well, thinking clearly, and showing up fully wasn't another productivity system but two simple breaths? What if the chaos you feel at the end of a long day could be shifted in 30 seconds without a retreat, yoga mat, or even a quiet room?In this episode, Kathryn sits down with Rebecca Rauscher, registered clinical counselor and owner of Boundless Heart Counseling Group in Vancouver, BC, to explore how high-achieving women can regulate their nervous systems without overhauling their lives. Rebecca unpacks the science behind the window of tolerance, explains the difference between hyper and hypo arousal, and guides listeners through real-time practices from double-inhale breathing to foot grounding to the five senses technique. She also reframes what meditation actually is, dismantling the perfectionism that keeps so many high performers from ever starting.BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING TO THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL DISCOVER:● How just two intentional breaths like a double-inhale through the nose followed by a long exhale can immediately drop your shoulders, slow your speech, and shift your entire physiological state no matter how chaotic your day has been.● Why practicing nervous system regulation tools like box breathing, foot grounding, and the five senses technique when you're at a two or three out of ten (rather than a ten) is what actually makes them accessible when full dysregulation hits.● How knowing your personal window of tolerance and recognizing whether you're spinning in hyper arousal or slumping in hypo arousal gives you a practical roadmap for choosing the right regulation tool in the right moment.● Why meditation was never about clearing the mind but about training the noticing muscle, and how even one minute three times a week done imperfectly will always outperform the perfect practice you never start.You can connect with Rebecca here:https://www.instagram.com/boundlessheartcounsellinggroup/https://www.instagram.com/rebecca.rauscher.consulting/https://www.instagram.com/becky_anne_van/https://www.boundlessheartcounselling.ca/And while you're here, follow us on Instagram @creativelyowned for more daily inspiration on effortlessly attracting the most aligned clients without spending hours marketing your business or chasing clients.

Later, another witness described a towering black figure standing near the trees with bright yellow eye shine.The weekend also included strange vocalizations moving through the forest, powerful wood knocks, unusual horse reactions, possible trackways, missing camp equipment, food disappearing, and more.Then Saturday brought another massive silhouette across the river and things kept escalating.Multiple witnesses.

    Your license plate, your shopping stops, your commute, even your robot vacuum map of your home, all of it can become searchable data in the hands of systems that never get tired and never stop collecting. We dig into the week's biggest tech stories and the uneasy truth underneath them: AI is not just “coming,” it's already shaping money, mobility, media, and policing. We start with the financial gravity of AI as Anthropic's rumored mega-IPO sparks questions about who really controls a “public” company when super voting shares keep power locked up top. Then we hit the streets of Las Vegas, where Nevada clears the way for thousands of robotaxis and the pace of automation collides with jobs, traffic, and public trust. We also talk about Divine, a Vine-style comeback app betting that banning AI-generated video and forcing live capture can restore authenticity online. Our featured guest, cybersecurity expert Nick Espinosa of Security Fanatics, brings the heavy stuff: Flock's OS Investigate and what it means when law enforcement can search for patterns first and suspects second. We also break down reports of Apple training a China-specific AI model with Alibaba, the privacy trade-offs that come with market access, and why cuts to CISA weaken the “cyber shield” that supports everyone from critical infrastructure to small businesses.

    Send Rachel a text message.Feeling burned out by healing, self-improvement, or spiritual growth? You may be trying too hard.In this episode of Self Talk, Rachel Astarte explores inner work burnout and the exhaustion that can arise when personal growth becomes another project to manage, master, or perfect. Sometimes the underdeveloped ego that once resisted our growth simply turns healing into another form of striving.Rachel offers a gentler path through the Foundation of Self, exploring why lasting transformation is ultimately experiential rather than intellectual and how awareness, nonjudgment, and gentleness can help us release unnecessary effort. Drawing on the self-inquiry of Sri Ramana Maharshi, listeners are invited to ask, “Who is having this thought?” and shift attention from the mind's activity to Awareness itself.This episode also introduces Rachel's “Magic Therapy Question”—How do I want to feel in this situation?—as a practical tool for recognizing misalignment and reconnecting with the wisdom of the Highest Self.If your inner work feels overwhelming, exhausting, or heavy, this conversation offers a simple reminder: You do not have to earn what you already are. Rest, listen inward, and remember that you are a unique expression of Pure Consciousness—an eternal Self living a fully human life.Listen to discover how to stop striving to become awakened and begin living awake.EPISODE TIMELINE0:00 – Opening Quote & Theme SetupJean Klein on “living stillness” and undoing conditioning; introduction to the episode and the Living Your Foundation of Self series.0:55 – Defining Inner Work BurnoutDescription of burnout as exhaustion from long-term inner work practices and the hidden expectation of “being further along” by now.2:05 – You Are Already Whole (Pure Consciousness)Re-centering on the core teaching: you are already whole, pure consciousness; inner work is about removing what you are not, not becoming “better.”3:05 – What Is Inner Work, Really?Revisit of the foundational definition: inner work as turning inward with awareness, curiosity, non-judgment, and gentleness rather than a self-improvement project.4:00 – The Mind as Tool vs. ObstacleThe mind's need for repetition and effort–reward loops; why this clashes with the non-linear, mysterious nature of genuine inner work.5:00 – How the Ego Co-opts Inner WorkThe underdeveloped ego's fear of obliteration; turning inner work into a “project” with goals and milestones, setting you up for burnout.6:07 – Expectation, Measurement, and FailureThe ego's “measuring stick”: Have I done enough? Found the right teacher? Become ‘better' yet? Why this project must fail from the ego's perspective.7:10 – The Real Source of ExhaustionClarifying that what drains you is not introspection itself, but striving to become a better, future self instead of accepting who you are now.8:05 – Stop Trying: From Mind-Work to Soul-ExperienceInvitation to pause effort, step out of “doing inner work,” and shift from intellectual understanding to direct, experiential being.8:55 – Self-Inquiry Practice (Ramana Maharshi)Guided explanation of asking “Who is having this thought?” and “Who am I?” to move attention from thoughts to pure awareness or “neutral space.”9:55 – The Magic Therapy QuestionIntroduction of “How do I want to feel in this situation?” with real-life examples (partner, boss, parents) and reclaiming emotional choice.10:45 – Meeting Your Inner Guru (Sadguru)Framing the highest Self / inner Guru as innate wisdom that sees beyond fear and conditioning; how all this work returns you to your foundation of Self.11:29 – Returning to the Three PillarsClear recap of the three pillars: awareness, non-judgment, gentleness—and how to use them when you feel burned out or “off track.”12:10 – Applying the Tools in the MomentCombining self-inquiry with the magic question (“How do I want to feel right now?”) to rest in neutrality and non-identification with thoughts.13:00 – You Are Already That PersonReleasing the fantasy of a more spiritual future self; recognizing you are already the healed, spiritual being you're trying to become.13:40 – Final Reminder: Ambassador of SourceClosing reflection: you are a unique iteration of pure consciousness here to experience human life in all its complexity, beauty, difficulty, and wonder; gentle sign-off.Got a question about your self?

    One decision in your first year of service can make you a military millionaire and most people never make it. In this long-awaited 2026 refresh of their most popular episode ever, Spencer and co-host Jamie break down the Thrift Savings Plan from the ground up: what it is, how the 5% match really works, Roth vs. traditional, the combat zone triple tax benefit, and exactly how much to contribute to retire with seven figures. Whether you just left boot camp or you're 15 years in and think you're too late, this is the no-nonsense TSP playbook for the modern service member. Questions Asked: What is the TSP, and how is it different from a savings account or a civilian 401(k)? How do the TSP and a Roth IRA work together — and why aren't they the same thing? How much can you contribute in 2026, and how much do you actually recommend? When does the government's 5% match kick in, and how do you avoid missing it? Can you contribute to a non-working spouse's IRA? Roth or traditional — which should most military members choose? What are catch-up contributions, and who are they actually for? How does the combat zone tax exclusion (CZTE) supercharge Roth contributions? I'm 10–15 years in under Legacy High-3 — is the TSP still worth it? What happens to my TSP when I separate or retire? How do the G, F, C, S, and I funds work, and what should I pick? What are Lifecycle (L) funds, and are they good enough? Is the TSP still a good deal on cost compared to Fidelity's zero-fee funds? What are your personal allocations? If I'm feeling overwhelmed, what's the one thing I should do? Main Topics Covered: TSP basics: employer-sponsored plan, Blended Retirement System (BRS) vs. Legacy High-3, and the 2018 transition The 5% match explained — 1% automatic + 4% after your 2-year mark — and why it doesn't count against your $24,500 elective deferral limit 2026 contribution limits: $24,500 TSP, $7,500 per person IRA, and the $72,000 combined limit The millionaire math: 20% (officer) or 25% (enlisted) to Roth TSP = a seven-figure account in 20 years Setting it up in myPay and tsp.gov, and why you should spread contributions across all 12 months Roth vs. traditional for military pay, and why Roth wins for ~90%+ of service members The combat zone triple tax benefit and tax-free re-enlistment bonuses New for 2026: Roth in-plan conversions and the military mega backdoor Roth Late to the game? Why it's never too late to start Keeping, rolling over, or consolidating your TSP after separation — and Guard/Reserve combined limits Breaking down all five funds (G, F, C, S, I) — including the I Fund's ex-China index change Lifecycle/target-date funds as the ultimate hands-off solution, and why chasing Facebook-group "gurus" backfires Costs, expense ratios, front-end load fees (looking at you, First Command), and the mutual fund window Rebalancing, interfund transfers, and tax-efficient asset placement Spencer's and Jamie's personal allocations, and why there's no perfect portfolio Resources Mentioned: The Military Money Manual: A Practical Guide to Financial Freedom (Amazon / militarymoneymanual.com) Tools at militarymoneymanual.com: MilTaxCaster: https://militarymoneymanual.com/military-tax-estimator/MilTaxCaster Cost/expense ratio calculator: https://militarymoneymanual.com/costs/ Roth TSP conversion calculator: https://militarymoneymanual.com/roth-tsp-conversion-calculator/ Contribution percentage chart: https://militarymoneymanual.com/military-tsp-match-max/  tsp.gov and FINRA.org (unbiased resources) Related episodes: #2 (original TSP) https://podcast.militarymoneymanual.com/ , #39 (mutual fund window) https://podcast.militarymoneymanual.com/39-2022-changes-to-the-tsp-mutual-fund-window-tsp-app-more/, #211 (Roth in-plan conversions with Brian "Alf" O'Neill) https://podcast.militarymoneymanual.com/roth-in-plan-conversions-tsp-with-brain-alf-oneill-211/  Tax Planning To and Through Early Retirement by Sean Mullaney and Cody Garrett Spencer and Jamie offer one-on-one Military Money Mentor sessions.

    Show Notes In Today's Episode In this episode of the Table Talk Podcast, Melody sits down with Kristen Wooten, a licensed professional clinical counselor and brain health coach, to explore the connection between trauma, brain health, ADHD, head injuries, and emotional well-being. Kristen explains how therapies and approaches such as EMDR, neurofeedback, the DART method, and brain-injury recovery protocols can support nervous-system regulation, resilience, and overall brain function. Key Take Aways EMDR can help reduce the emotional charge associated with traumatic memories. Kristen explains how bilateral stimulation allows clients to process traumatic memories in a more grounded way rather than simply retelling the story cognitively. Neurofeedback focuses on training and regulating the brain and nervous system. Kristen describes how neurofeedback may help with resilience, calmness, sleep, emotional regulation, focus, and the intensity and frequency of meltdowns. Brain injuries can sometimes present as mood or behavioral issues. The conversation highlights why asking about concussions, whiplash, and other head injuries can be important when evaluating symptoms such as depression, anxiety, ADHD, or addiction. Building resilience can be an important step before trauma processing. For people who aren't ready for EMDR, Kristen discusses neurofeedback, grounding, mindfulness, and other resilience-building skills that may help the nervous system become more regulated. Lifestyle factors matter for brain health. Nutrition, exercise, and other lifestyle choices are discussed as important components of supporting the brain and maintaining the benefits of brain-focused therapies. Topics Discussed 00:00 – Welcome to Table Talk: Brain Health Melody introduces Kristen Wooten and her work in clinical counseling, trauma, brain health, EMDR, DART, and neurofeedback. 01:00 – Kristen's Journey Into Trauma Therapy How Kristen transitioned from general clinical counseling into trauma-focused work after recognizing the limitations of traditional approaches. 03:00 – Understanding EMDR and Trauma Processing What EMDR is, how bilateral stimulation works, and how it can help reduce the emotional charge associated with traumatic memories. 06:00 – How Neurofeedback Supports the Nervous System An introduction to neurofeedback and how brain training can support nervous-system regulation, resilience, sleep, focus, and emotional regulation. 08:00 – Neurofeedback, ADHD, and a Personal Story Kristen shares her experience discovering neurofeedback through her son's ADHD symptoms and how it changed their family dynamic. 11:00 – Building Resilience Before Processing Trauma Why some clients may need to develop regulation and resilience skills before they are ready to work directly with traumatic memories. 13:00 – Neurofeedback for Children and Babies Exploring how neurofeedback can be used across different ages, including young children and infants struggling with sleep. 14:00 – Understanding Developmental Trauma and the DART Method Kristen explains the DART method, attachment, developmental trauma, and the healing process surrounding childhood experiences and relationships. 17:00 – The Connection Between Head Injuries and Mental Health Why concussions, whiplash, and other head injuries can sometimes contribute to anxiety, depression, ADHD symptoms, and other changes in behavior or mood. 20:00 – Supporting Recovery After Brain Injury A look at hyperbaric oxygen, nutrition, supplements, and neurofeedback as potential components of a brain injury recovery approach. 22:00 – ADHD, Addiction, and Brain Function How ADHD and brain function may relate to impulse control and addiction, and why understanding the brain can help reduce shame around these struggles. 24:00 – Brain Injury Recovery and Hyperbaric Oxygen Discussing research, blood flow, hyperbaric oxygen, neurofeedback, and nutritional support in the context of brain injury recovery. 25:00 – Hyperbarics, Parkinson's, and Dementia Exploring the potential role of hyperbaric oxygen in neurological conditions and why ongoing support may vary depending on the condition and individual. 27:00 – Lifestyle Choices That Support Brain Health Why nutrition, exercise, and everyday habits can influence the effectiveness and longevity of brain health treatments. 30:00 – Nutrition, Movement, and Mental Health Practical ways to connect food, exercise, supplements, and daily routines with mood, energy, and overall brain health. 32:00 – Collaboration and a Whole-Person Approach to Brain Health Closing thoughts on combining different specialties, tools, and approaches to better support patients and address underlying factors affecting health.

    A lifelong local from Oregon's Lolo Pass and Mt. Hood region shares what people in the area have been seeing, hearing, and quietly talking about for decades.In this episode of Bigfoot Society, she takes us deep into the back roads around Lolo Pass, Lost Lake, Brightwood, Ramona Falls, and the surrounding Mt. Hood forests. She describes a childhood sighting in the late 1990s, strange activity along remote forest roads, massive human-like prints reported on vehicles, unexplained whoops, rocks being thrown, trees and branches being manipulated, and encounters with mysterious lights locals call “wisps.”Then she shares what happened at her own riverfront property in June 2026.Late one night, a whoop rang out near the house. A tree came down. Her dogs went into high alert. Near an enormous cedar, she and her friends spotted a massive figure watching them from the darkness. What happened after she confronted it ended with a wet river rock landing on her deck.You'll also hear local stories surrounding the “Man of the Ridge” above a Brightwood rock quarry, reports from hikers around Ramona Falls, experiences along the area's power-line corridors, stories passed down by old-time loggers, and more. This is an unusually detailed look at Bigfoot reports from someone who has spent her life in the Mt. Hood region and grew up hearing the stories that circulate among the people who live there.Listen through to the end. The deeper the conversation goes, the stranger the Lolo Pass stories become.
