VENEZUELA'S TRAGIC DECLINE FROM PROSPERITY TO AUTHORITARIANISM Colleague Professor Evan Ellis. Historical imagery reveals Venezuela's transformation from a prosperous, modern nation in the 1950s to a ruined state today. Deep inequality and corruption in the pre-Chavez era alienated the poor, allowing Hugo Chavez to capitalize on their frustration and dismantle the free market system, leading to the current crisis.

Today's guest is Jason Lee, a fintech veteran who has been at the forefront of employee financial wellness innovation for nearly a decade. After co-founding and scaling DailyPay into one of the pioneering companies in earned wage access, Jason went on to launch Salt Labs, an innovative employee rewards platform that Chime acquired just 18 months after its founding. Now, as the leader of Chime Enterprise, Jason is on a mission to make financial health benefits as ubiquitous in the workplace as health insurance.In this conversation, we explore why he believes every employer will eventually offer these programs, not out of altruism, but because it makes compelling business sense. Jason shares fascinating insights about how financial stress undermines productivity, why employees value Salt's non-dollar rewards even more than cash, and his ambitious vision for building an employer-focused financial health platform that could parallel what Fidelity achieved in retirement. It's a conversation about the intersection of fintech, HR technology, and the future of work – and why the employer may be the most powerful catalyst for improving Americans' financial lives.In this podcast you will learn:Jason's high profile background in fintech.The origins of Salt Labs and how they became part of Chime.The premise for Chime Workplace.Why they are fundamentally in the productivity business.How they are able to measure financial wellness outcomes.Why employers are caring more about the financial health of their employees today.Jason's prediction for employers and financial wellness.The target market for Chime Workplace.What they hear when they first go into a new employer.Why they don't charge employers for Chime Workplace.How their SALT rewards work.Jason's vision for the future of employer-driven financial wellness.Connect with Fintech One-on-One: Tweet me @PeterRenton Connect with me on LinkedIn Find previous Fintech One-on-One episodes

In this honest and reflective episode, Alisa sits down with fan-favorite Ashlee Stohler to unpack the complicated legacy of The Biggest Loser – the reality TV phenomenon that dominated the 2000s and promised life-changing transformations through extreme weight loss. Once celebrated as an inspiration, the show is now widely criticized for its harmful methods and long-term consequences. Alisa and Ashlee dive deep into how it amplified the toxic diet culture of the era, and why its messages still linger today. Key Topics Discussed: The dark reality behind the dramatic transformations: extreme calorie restriction, grueling workouts, and public weigh-ins that often led to metabolic damage, slowed metabolisms, and near-inevitable weight regain. The underlying message that bodies are a problem to be "fixed" – and how that fueled shame, punishment mentality, and the idea that thinness equals worth. How the show reinforced the illusion of quick, permanent change – and why sustainable health looks nothing like a marathon of deprivation. Reflections on healing: Moving beyond the "biggest loser" era. This conversation is equal parts nostalgia, critique, and hope – a must-listen for anyone who's ever felt the weight of diet culture or chased an unrealistic transformation.

The holidays slow everything down, don't they? But next year's coming fast. I'm sharing the simple rule I use every single day with my clients. It's the one that cuts through the chaos and gets you focused on what actually moves your life forward. You've got goals and dreams. The world's going to try sucking the motivation right out of you. Time to figure out what works for you, what doesn't, and just do that. Simple as that. Featured Story My daughter called me out last night. Said my voice sounded raspy from too many holiday parties. Then she offered to teach me to sing. Me. The guy who won't even touch karaoke. Next thing I know, she's buying me a vocal training program and planning to come over. I've always had this weird goal to learn, but I've never been willing. Now I'm probably doing it because sometimes the craziest goals are the ones worth going after. This whole thing sparked a question on my coaching call today that blew everyone's mind. Nobody had an answer. That question tomorrow might do the same for you. Important Points Motivation feels like injecting dopamine, but it doesn't last when chaos rules your life. Transformation only comes after stability—your nervous system can't handle change when you're scattered. Your regrets reveal your real values—track what you wish you hadn't done to find what matters most. Memorable Quotes "You can't have transformation without stability." "This works, that doesn't, do this." "What you really want to do in your life usually shows up in your regrets, in the things you wish you hadn't done." Scott's Three-Step Approach Notice what actually works for you and take responsibility for doing more of it. Write down your biggest distractions and build discipline to eliminate them completely. Use your regrets as a map—inverse them to discover your real values and priorities. Chapter Notes 0:28 - Holiday motivation and the year ahead 1:09 - Raspy voice reveals holiday parties and singing dreams 2:30 - Fisher Passion Inner Circle coaching insights 3:59 - Figure-it-out-itis and the motivation trap 6:18 - The "This works, that doesn't" system explained 7:20 - Phone discipline and deep work transformation 8:44 - How regrets reveal what you really want Connect With Me Search for the Daily Boost on YouTube, Apple Podcasts, and Spotify Email: support@motivationtomove.com Main Website: https://motivationtomove.com YouTube: https://youtube.com/dailyboostpodcast Instagram: @heyscottsmith Learn more about your ad choices.

Have you ever had one of those months where you just can't climb out of a dark hole? That was my October and November.My son had a health scare (instant compassion for every parent walking that road), I wasn't sleeping—wide awake at 3 a.m. every night (thank God for a dear friend who meets me at Starbucks at 5 a.m.)—and I felt completely unmotivated and uninspired by my work. Not fun.I'm sharing this because maybe you've been there too. And here's the gift hidden inside those seasons: wisdom.What did I learn? Compassion for myself. Humility that I will never “have it all together.” Trust that this, too, shall pass. And it did pass. The light returned—beginning with the conversation you're about to hear with Dr. John Price. It was medicine for my soul, and I know it will be for yours too.Meet Dr. John W. PriceDr. John W. Price is a licensed psychotherapist, Jungian scholar, and modern-day mythmaker devoted to bridging psychology and spirituality in service of deep transformation. He holds a Master's in Clinical Psychology and a Doctorate in Jungian Psychology and co-founded The Center for Healing Arts and Sciences in Houston with his wife, Leila-Scott Price.Before dedicating his life to healing, John spent a decade as a professional musician—a journey that immersed him in both the highs of creative success and the depths of self-destruction. Becoming a father marked a powerful turning point, when the soul's call overtook ambition and led him to his true purpose: guiding others through life's great initiations—grief, identity collapse, spiritual awakening, and the long return to wholeness.He now serves as President of the Board at the Jung Center of Houston, teaches at the Esalen Institute, and hosts The Sacred Speaks podcast—where he explores depth psychology, spirituality, mysticism, and meaning with guests like Richard Rohr, Anne Lamott, and Thomas Moore.In This Episode We Explore✨ John's own “cracking open” story—from life as a rock musician to his awakening as a soul-centered psychotherapist ✨ How fatherhood transformed his ambitions into a deeper calling to serve ✨ Practical wisdom for navigating the dark night of the soul with grace and courage ✨ How men's vulnerability and shadow work can become catalysts for collective healing ✨ Our candid exchange where I challenge John to fully step into his leadership as a bridge between psychology, spirituality, and the modern masculineThis conversation is rich with laughter, depth, and truth—but above all, hope. John is a luminous guide whose presence reminds us that even in darkness, we are never alone.If you're walking through your own “dark night,” or simply feeling lost, uninspired, or uncertain, this episode is your lifeline. John offers not quick fixes or toxic positivity, but grounded wisdom:You're not broken—you're breaking open.Press play and remember—the light isn't just coming; it's already within you, waiting to be rediscovered.

What if renewing your mind isn't just spiritual advice—it's actual brain training? In this episode, we explore how attention shapes affection, and how the difference between affections and addictions determines whether your family is being transformed or simply managed into conforming to the patterns of this world. We're introducing Dr. Lee Warren's groundbreaking work on faith and neuroscience (stay tuned for our full interview with him next month), and discovering how Philippians 4:8 is God's prescription for mental health—not toxic positivity, but actual neural formation. This changes everything about how we understand transformation in families. This is the second episode in our Season 7 alphabet series: A is for Affections, Not Addictions. Today we're learning to curate a life that builds affections instead of addictions—and discovering that most families are stuck in a perform/binge cycle that creates neither security nor transformation. In This Episode, You'll Discover: Why Philippians 4:8 is brain training, not just moral advice—and how attention literally rewires your nervous system The core distinction: "Affections form you through love. Addictions manage you through substitutes for love." How affections grow in families where needs are welcomed and met through relationship—and how addictions grow where needs are managed in isolation Why addictions aren't moral failures or lack of willpower—they're brilliant survival strategies that come at a cost What it actually looks like to live life together without an agenda (and why this is easier than it sounds) How trauma bonds form even in "good Christian families" through performance-based relating Dr. Lee Warren's powerful framework: "You cannot control every thought that enters your mind, but you can choose which ones you rehearse and build a home for." Three practical steps to shift from addictions to affections this week Quotable Moments "Attention is not passive. What we give our attention to is actively shaping our brains. Attention drives neuroplasticity."   "The atmosphere matters more than the activity. In a transformational home, no one is keeping score. No one is earning approval. Everyone contributes from identity, not from fear." "When you're together in that relaxed, no-pressure environment, your child will often let you meet their needs. They'll ask questions. They'll share what's going on in their heart—because they feel safe." "What you attend to becomes what you believe. What you believe becomes how you interpret reality. And how you interpret reality shapes your nervous system and your relationships." Three Takeaways 1. Notice what you're giving your attention to. This week, pay attention to what you're rehearsing in your mind. Because what you rehearse becomes what you believe. What you believe shapes how you interpret reality. And how you interpret reality shapes your nervous system and your relationships. Ask yourself: What thoughts am I building a home for? What am I giving my attention to during the day? Is it life-giving or life-draining? Is it transforming me or conforming me? Just notice. Don't judge yourself. Just see it clearly. Awareness is the first step. 2. Choose one activity to do together without an agenda. This week, choose one activity and do it without an agenda. No pressure. No performance. No goal except to be present. Maybe it's cooking a meal together, going for a walk, working on something in the garage, reading aloud, or playing a board game. The point isn't what you do—it's that you're together, and no one has to earn approval or manage anyone else's emotions. Notice what happens when you're just together. This is where affections are built. 3. Ask yourself: "What am I bonding with?" This is the question we asked in Episode #127, and it's one we need to keep coming back to. What are you bonding with? What's influencing you? What are you forming affections with? Are you bonding with habits, ideas, routines, and people who are life-giving—or demanding? Because what you bond with shapes you. So choose wisely. Transformation happens when we intentionally curate a life that forms affections rather than feeds addictions.

Christine Crouch, Senior Director of Learning at General Mills, joins Workplace Stories to discuss a massive shift in how one of the world's legacy food companies approaches talent development. General Mills has recently transitioned to a centralized and integrated learning model.In this episode, Christine lays out one of the clearest cases for centralization we have heard. While efficiency is a benefit, she argues that the true drivers are decision-making power and better data. By unifying the function, General Mills gains a stronger view of learning activity and business needs, creating the strategic infrastructure necessary for the future of work.You'll hear how Christine's team manages to be centralized without losing the "local feel" through a robust Learning Business Partner model. She also details how centralization unlocks the ability to correlate learning metrics with talent outcomes like retention and performance. Finally, Christine shares her philosophy on AI, not as a replacement for human connection, but as a tool to elevate the human side of learning.You will want to hear this episode if you are interested in...[06:07] Background on General Mills and its culture.[07:00] The shift from decentralized to centralized L&D.[11:11] How to make centralization feel local to business stakeholders.[18:30] The Learning Business Partner model explained.[21:07] Correlating learning metrics with talent outcomes.[27:58] Managing "rogue purchases" in a centralized model.[34:20] Why AI will elevate, not replace, the human side of learning.[47:35] Piloting AI coaching tools like "Nadia".The Strategic Case for CentralizationFor many organizations, the move to centralize L&D is purely a cost-cutting exercise. However, Christine frames the shift at General Mills as a play for better data and strategic decision-making. A centralized function provides a unified view of the organization's needs, allowing L&D to prioritize investments that drive enterprise-wide capabilities rather than just solving isolated functional problems. As AI accelerates, this strong data infrastructure is what will allow the organization to distinguish between what people actually need to know versus what can be offloaded to technology.The Learning Business Partner ModelCentralization often brings the fear of losing touch with the business. General Mills solves this through the "Learning Business Partner" role, individuals who sit on the leadership teams of specific functions or segments but report back to the central L&D organization. These partners act as a bridge; they understand the HR strategy and business plans of their specific function while ensuring continuity with the broader enterprise goals. They are expected to be performance consultants first, identifying the root problems to solve rather than just taking orders for training.AI: Elevating the Human ElementChristine's approach to AI is grounded in optimism and human-centricity. She believes AI will not replace the human side of learning but elevate it. General Mills is actively piloting AI for tasks like personalization, automation, and coaching via a tool called "Nadia," which acts as an "always-on" coach. However, Christine emphasizes that deep skill building, like change leadership, still requires human connection, peer discussion, and the ability to "read the room," skills that AI cannot fully replicate. Connect with Christine CrouchChristine Crouch on LinkedIn Connect With Red Thread ResearchWebsite: Red Thread ResearchOn LinkedInOn FacebookOn TwitterSubscribe to WORKPLACE STORIES

Why did Jesus come—and why does His birth still matter? In a culture that downplays sin and elevates good works, the need for a Savior can start to feel unnecessary. Bucky reminds us that while the cultural relevance of Jesus may be fading at Christmas, the spiritual need for Him has not. Jesus didn't come to make us nicer people; He came to bring transformation. This message challenges us to reconsider why Christ was born—and what it truly means to move from darkness to life.

Gospel  Matthew 21:28-32 Jesus said to the chief priests and the elders of the people: “What is your opinion?  A man had two sons.  He came to the first and said, ‘Son, go out and work in the vineyard today.'  The son said in reply, ‘I will not,' but afterwards he changed his mind and went.  The man came to the other son and gave the same order.  He said in reply, ‘Yes, sir,' but did not go.  Which of the two did his father's will?”  They answered, “The first.”  Jesus said to them, “Amen, I say to you, tax collectors and prostitutes are entering the Kingdom of God before you.  When John came to you in the way of righteousness, you did not believe him; but tax collectors and prostitutes did.  Yet even when you saw that, you did not later change your minds and believe him.” Reflection The beautiful part of this reading for me is we're in this world to go through a process called conversion. Transformation. We start with one truth or one half truth, or one lie or whatever, and we move closer and closer to what we are called to be in truth. And the whole thing that is important for one to understand is we have to change, continue to change. The Pharisees would not. And so Jesus points out, I came into the world to change people, to awaken them, to renew them. And the Pharisees were not interested at all. Closing Prayer Father, why should we ever be ashamed of something that we have done that is wrong, or something that we misunderstood? It's part of the plan. It's why you have made it so clear to us that your response to us in our failures is nothing but love, forgiveness, and the power to change. Bless us with that conviction that we should never be afraid to face where we have made mistakes, or when we continue to make mistakes. Help us to be transformed. And we ask this in Jesus' name, Amen. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Host Mike Palmer interviews Joshua Jones, CEO and Founder of QuantHub, an AI company focused on education and skills development. Jones, who previously co-founded the data science consulting firm StrategyWise, explains that QuantHub originated as an internal tool before spinning out to focus on delivering micro-learning chunks that target individual learners' specific needs. Jones offers sharp insights into the AI revolution: he argues that the focus has shifted from data science to tech literacy, including AI literacy, and understanding the "art of the possible." He emphasizes that successful AI implementation requires human factors and change management, noting that smart models will fail without proper "boots in the ground" support. Delving into the accelerating pace of change, Jones cites World Economic Forum data showing that critical thinking and creativity are increasing in importance for employers, while foundational skills like reading, writing, and math are decreasing. This suggests that understanding why you're using a tool is more critical than knowing the tool itself. The report also indicates that the structural job churn rate has jumped from an estimated 1% to about 4.5% per year, making continuous learning a necessity. Jones also tracks emerging technologies like quantum computing and robotics, predicting a significant market impact from 3D environment technologies around 2028. Here are the slides Josh references during the episode. Key Takeaways: - Skills Evolution: Critical thinking and tech literacy (including AI literacy) are becoming more valuable than specific technology skills as tools constantly change. - AI Implementation: Successful AI integration requires human support and change management; smart models can fail if people feeding them data don't understand the value of the technology. - Pace of Change: The speed of change in industry is quickening. The structural job churn rate has jumped from about 1% to about 4.5% per year, making continuous learning a necessity to keep up. - Learning Progression: Foundational data skills should be introduced in middle school, creating a path that extends through K-12, higher education, and professional development.

This month we're celebrating a huge milestone — 50 episodes of Punk Therapy! To mark the moment, we're bringing back one of our most loved conversations from 2023: our interview with the extraordinary Dr. Sharon Stanley.Sharon's work has been a significant influence on both of us over the years. Her somatic, relational, deeply human approach to healing has shaped so much of how we think about therapy — and continues to infuse the way we show up with our clients, our students, and our community. Revisiting this episode felt like the perfect way to honour where we've come from and where we're heading.And in some beautiful timing… this episode coincides with the release of a completed PhD from one of your hosts — a project exploring the meeting place of interpersonal neurobiology, somatics, and psychedelic-assisted therapy. It's work that has been simmering behind the scenes for years, and it's finally ready to be shared.If you're curious to read it or want to dive deeper into the ideas that quietly underpin many of our conversations, you're warmly invited to reach out:Email us at: doctort@punktherapy.comWe'll happily send you a copy.It feels special to celebrate 50 episodes by revisiting a conversation that has meant so much to us — and to pair it with the release of work that's been part of this podcast's DNA from the beginning.Thank you for being with us on this journey. Here's to many more episodes, many more conversations, and many more ways of exploring what it means to heal — together. —CW: Physical assault, trauma, and suicideDr. T and the Truth Fairy welcome Dr. Sharon Stanley - renowned psychotherapist, author, and developer of the psychotherapeutic model of somatic transformation - to the show. They have a searching and revealing conversation with Dr. Stanley about her career and the decades of work she has done with humans and trauma. Sharon Stanley describes her work as “relational to the core” and explains how her somatic work uses relationship to at times discern a particular technique. She shares the personal story of how she first became interested in trauma and how her study moved into the idea of somatic transformation from there. Dr. Stanley also names many foundational figures whom she has drawn insight from along the way.The discussion Dr. T and the Truth Fairy have with Sharon Stanley involve how Sharon keeps boundaries in the relationship formed through trauma bonding, what the intersubjective field is, and the six steps of somatic transformation. Sharon describes what ‘meaning making' encompasses and she invites Dr. T and Truth Fairy into a brief thematic reflection. This episode sheds light on how much Truth Fairy has learned from Dr. Stanley and why she has been mentioned so frequently on PUNK Therapy. It gives insight into her intentions and careful trauma healing methods.“When we do have an experience of going through something together, we can have an experience called trauma bonding. And the trauma bonding is a kind of an enmeshment where I feel what you feel, you feel what I feel. And we don't have clear boundaries. And that kind of leads me a little bit further into your question that working professionally with trauma, it's relational, but the boundaries are very clear. And how to make sure [in] those boundaries that there's a time, there's a place, there's a way we will, it's almost like a ritual that we will follow.” -  Dr. Sharon StanleyAbout Sharon Stanley, PhD:Over the past 17 years Sharon Stanley has developed and taught an emerging curriculum for healing trauma to thousands of  mental health practitioners. The educational experience of ST actively engages psychotherapists in exploring emerging research and practices in their own professional and personal lives. Sharon then applies their findings to the ongoing development of Somatic Transformation.As an instructor for Somatic Transformation, Sharon has had the privilege of teaching psychotherapists from Canada, United States, Middle East and Europe. Her doctoral studies at the University of Victoria involved research into the development of empathy in caregivers working with traumatized children and identifies the transformative effects of ST as an amplification of empathic connection. Sharon has been engaged in a small study group with Dr. Allan Schore, a well-known neuroscientist, for 18 years. She lives and practices psychotherapy on Bainbridge Island, just outside of Seattle.  Her book, Relational and Body-Centered Practices for Healing Trauma: Lifting the Burdens of the Past was published by Routledge in 2016 and is used by psychotherapists interested in a humanistic, developmental, body-centered, relational approach to healing trauma.Resources discussed in this episode:“Relational and Body-Centered Practices for Healing Trauma” by Sharon Stanley, PhDJudith HermanEdith SteinJohn O'DonohueMatryoshka dollsMax van ManenSuicide Hotlines and Prevention Resources Around the World---Punk Therapy: website |emailDr. Sharon Stanley: somatic transformation website | email Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Gavin Linde welcomed Peter Jnr. of Luchi's Whiskey Bar to the Rolex Whiskey Passion Project. Peter Jr. detailed the bar's transformation into a specialist for Islay and Jura malt whiskies, a shift that was inspired by an American VIP's observation of the jarring contrast between the luxury whiskey lounge and the public bar's Jäger bomb clientele. This led to the decision to focus on opening rare bottles for drinking. The bar now boasts an inventory of between 1,800 and 1,900 exclusive Islay and Jura bottlings, having removed all non-Islay whiskies to focus on island exclusives, driven by a rising international customer demand over the past 7 to 10 years.

One hundred episodes ago, this podcast began as a quiet nudge - a pull toward crystals, intuition, and something deeper that couldn't be ignored. ✨In this milestone 100th episode of Big Crystal Energy, host Ashleigh Bodell reflects on the journey that unfolded when she chose to trust her inner voice. From navigating motherhood and hard seasons to embracing spirituality, magic, and personal transformation, this episode is an honest look at how showing up - consistently and imperfectly - can change your life.Ashleigh shares the lessons, moments, and inner shifts that shaped the podcast, the community that formed around it, and the courage it took to stay weird, curious, and intuitive in a world that often asks us to be smaller.This episode isn't just a celebration - it's a reminder that growth happens when you listen, follow the spark, and allow yourself to evolve.Whether you've been here since episode one or just found your way in, thank you for being part of the magic. Here's to the next chapter.

Dr. Martin Picard, PhD, is a professor of behavioral medicine at Columbia University and an expert on how our behaviors and psychology shape cellular energy production and rates of aging. He explains that your mitochondria don't just “make energy”; they translate what you do—your mindset and your relationships—into the energy you experience as vitality or lack thereof. He explains how exercise, nutrition, sleep, meditation, and even certain thought patterns and our sense of purpose can charge our cells like batteries. He also shares findings that hair greying is the result of cellular stress and is reversible. This episode links physical and mental ‘energy' with cellular energy and provides science-supported tools to improve your physical and mental health. Read the episode show notes at hubermanlab.com.

In its heyday, the Bush Terminal industrial complex spanned several city blocks along Brooklyn's waterfront and employed more than 35,000 people. Built by Irving Bush in the late nineteenth century, it was an "early intermodal shipping hub." Goods arrived by water and left by rail. Bananas, coffee, and cotton came in through doors on one side of the warehouses and were loaded onto trains on the other.But after World War II, as trucks replaced rail and shipping patterns changed, the Terminal's purpose faded and the vast complex slipped into disuse.Today, Bush Terminal is again at the center of New York's vision for urban reinvention— and a debate around development, displacement, and the future of work in the city.Joining us on a deep dive into Bush Terminal is veteran architecture critic and writer Karrie Jacobs. Her essay, “On the Waterfront,” appears in our December issue of the Nation.Our Sponsors:* Check out Avocado Green Mattress: https://avocadogreenmattress.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
