As I delve into the intricacies of Project 2025, a sense of profound transformation and potential upheaval in the U.S. federal government becomes increasingly clear. This initiative, born out of a convergence of conservative ideologies and strategic planning, aims to reshape the very fabric of American governance.In the spring of 2022, a group of conservative extremists and political operatives gathered to draft a radical blueprint for government restructuring. This document, known as Project 2025 or "Mandate for Leadership: The Conservative Promise," was released by the Heritage Foundation in April 2023. Backed by 100 advisory coalition partners, including far-right groups and organizations funded by billionaires, this 927-page policy blueprint is nothing short of ambitious.At its core, Project 2025 seeks to "destroy the Administrative State" by consolidating executive power in favor of right-wing ideologies. The plan is rooted in an expansive interpretation of the unitary executive theory, which centralizes greater control over the government in the White House. Kevin Roberts, a key proponent, envisions a system where all federal employees answer directly to the president, a vision that has been gaining traction since the Reagan administration, particularly through the influence of the Federalist Society and the Heritage Foundation[3].One of the most striking aspects of Project 2025 is its proposal to eliminate the independence of several critical federal agencies. The Department of Justice, the FBI, the Federal Communications Commission, and the Federal Trade Commission are all targeted for direct presidential control. This move is designed to ensure that these agencies align with the ideological stance of the president, rather than operating as independent entities. For instance, Kiron Skinner, who authored the State Department chapter of Project 2025, advocates for the dismissal of all Department of State employees in leadership roles before January 20, 2025, to be replaced by ideologically vetted leaders appointed to acting roles that do not require Senate confirmation. Skinner's rationale is that many State Department employees are too left-wing and need to be replaced by those more loyal to a conservative president[3].The project also includes a detailed 180-day playbook for implementing these reforms, starting with a stack of prepared Executive Orders ready for the new president to sign on the first day in office. This rapid transformation is facilitated by a scheme known as Schedule F, which allows for the hiring of unlimited political appointees without expiration dates. These appointees would not be bound by the usual civil service protections, making them susceptible to political overreach and abuse of power. As outlined in the project, this would enable a president and their political loyalists to have full control over the Executive Branch for personal and political gain[5].The implications of such changes are far-reaching and potentially devastating. For federal workers, the loss of civil service protections could mean a significant erosion of job security and the introduction of a highly politicized work environment. The American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE) warns that Project 2025 could lead to the termination of up to 1 million federal workers, dismantling agencies and disrupting essential public services[2].Experts and critics alike are sounding alarms about the potential consequences of these reforms. The Center for Progressive Reform is tracking the executive action proposals across 20 federal agencies, highlighting the devastating consequences for workers, the environment, and public health. The ACLU has also expressed concerns, noting that the re-election of a president aligned with these policies could have immense and far-reaching impacts on civil liberties and the rule of law[1][4].As we approach the 2024 elections and the potential implementation of Project 2025 in 2025, the stakes are high. The project's success hinges on a GOP victory and the willingness of a new administration to execute these radical reforms. The coming months will be crucial, as the public and policymakers grapple with the implications of such a profound shift in governance.In reflecting on Project 2025, it becomes clear that this initiative represents more than just a set of policy proposals; it embodies a fundamental redefinition of the relationship between the executive branch and the rest of the federal government. As the nation moves toward this potential crossroads, it is imperative to engage in a robust and informed discussion about the future of American governance and the values that underpin it. The decisions made in the near future will shape not only the immediate trajectory of the federal government but also the long-term health of American democracy itself.

Nearly one year on from launch, Grinds360, Ireland's leading hybrid learning platform, has seen explosive growth, with over 3,000 paying members and 18,000 app users as the 2024/25 Leaving Cert draws to a close. By combining established and trusted teachers with AI-powered personalisation, Grinds360 is transforming how students prepare for their exams. Backed by a €3.2 million seed round and set to double revenue in 2025/26, the company has established itself as the go-to alternative to traditional grind schools. Grinds360 was founded on the belief that affordability and accessibility should be the foundation of exam support, something that, for too long, students across Ireland have been denied. That mission has resonated nationwide, with 65% of sign-ups now coming from outside Dublin, highlighting the demand for a more inclusive alternative to traditional grind schools. On Grinds360's future, Brendan Kavanagh, Chairman and Co-Founder says, "The numbers speak for themselves - there's a real hunger for a new model of academic support. Families are fed up with the high costs and limited options, but we have shown that there is a better way forward as the Irish education landscape continues to shift. Our ambition is to build a platform that doesn't just improve how students prepare for exams, but fundamentally changes what they expect. We've shown that you can make high quality, personalised education accessible to students no matter where they live, or what school they attend. Now we're focused on scaling that impact even further and becoming the gold standard for digital learning." Grinds360 model is a unique hybrid approach, combining Ireland's leading teachers with cutting-edge AI student tracking tech and a flexible all-access membership. For a single subscription fee, priced up to 75% cheaper than traditional grind schools, students gain unlimited access to live weekly grinds in 14 core subjects, over 3,000 on-demand lessons across 20 subjects, high-end animations and knowledge checks, expert-curated digital notes and exam focused revision courses. Having already addressed major barriers around affordability and accessibility, Grinds360 is now turning its attention to a growing concern in Irish education: the pressure on students to leave their schools entirely in the lead-up to exams. Kavanagh added, "Instead of replacing classroom teachers, we are working alongside them, challenging the outdated idea that success requires leaving school, friends, and local teachers for a full-time grind school - a growing trend we have seen in recent years. Students don't need to abandon their schools to get top-tier tuition. Ireland already has excellent teachers and strong schools, what students need is additional support that works alongside their education. We've made expert teaching accessible and affordable, and our results show that students don't need to break bonds with their teachers, classmates or communities to succeed." As Irish education undergoes significant change, becoming increasingly digital, the Grinds360 model supports students through continuous engagement and digital resources that reflect the evolving nature of the senior cycle and the Leaving Certificate. Since inception, Grinds360 has established itself as one of the fastest growing education platforms in the country. As demand accelerates, the team is focused on deepening its impact and ensuring more students across Ireland can access the support they need. See more stories here.

HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd Executive Chairman Frank Holmes talked with Proactive about the company's strategic growth through its expansion into Paraguay and the scaling of its high-performance computing (HPC) capabilities. Discussing the company's results for the year to end-March, Holmes outlined how HIVE increased its electricity capacity from 100MW to over 300MW in Paraguay by acquiring Bitfarms' operations, a move that he described as the "big scaling element." This initiative leverages surplus hydroelectric power, enabling sustainable and cost-efficient operations. He also highlighted the rapid growth of HIVE's AI and HPC revenue—from $10 million in the past year to $20 million in just six months—with expectations to reach $100 million. Holmes said, “We announced, two days ago, that we bought a data center that will repurpose from bitcoin mining into high-performance computing.” In terms of financials, the company reported $115 million in revenue with $53 million in EBITDA for the past year, despite a transition to US GAAP accounting. With minimal headcount, HIVE projects combined revenue from Bitcoin and AI to approach $500 million. Holmes emphasized, “We're not going to be hiring thousands... so that means we should be able to deliver that margin expansion.” Visit Proactive's YouTube channel for more updates.

In this heartfelt episode, I reconnect with the radiant Reeta Pohjonen, who shares the inspiring next chapter of her path from launching the Academy of Transformative Homeopathy to co-creating the Sacred Source School with Janey Lavelle. We explore the deeper layers of homeopathy as both a healing modality and a path of personal transformation, and Reeta offers a glimpse into her powerful graduation retreats infused with women's circles, cacao ceremonies, and soul-led teachings.

GOD'S VISITATION IS TRANSFORMATIVE | PASTOR FOLARIN AKINSOLA | JUNE 6, 2025 by Christ Chapel

As I delve into the intricacies of Project 2025, a sense of profound transformation and potential upheaval in the U.S. federal government becomes increasingly clear. This initiative, crafted by a coalition of conservative organizations and political operatives, is more than just a policy blueprint; it is a radical vision for reshaping American governance.Project 2025 emerged in the spring of 2022, when a group of conservative extremists and political operatives gathered to draft a comprehensive plan for a new administration, presuming a GOP victory in the November 2024 elections. This 927-page document, also known as "Mandate for Leadership: The Conservative Promise," was released by the Heritage Foundation in April 2023 and is backed by 100 advisory coalition partners, including far-right groups and organizations funded by billionaires.At its core, Project 2025 aims to "destroy the Administrative State" by radically restructuring each of the 30 federal departments. The plan is divided into detailed chapters, each outlining specific proposals for overhauling these agencies and ensuring that political loyalists fill key positions from "Day One" of a new Republican administration. This is not just a matter of personnel changes; it involves a fundamental shift in how the executive branch operates, with a strong emphasis on centralizing power in the White House.One of the most contentious aspects of Project 2025 is its advocacy for the unitary executive theory, an expansive interpretation of presidential power that seeks to eliminate the independence of various federal agencies. Kevin Roberts, a key figure behind the project, has stated that all federal employees should answer directly to the president. This vision is supported by conservative justices, the Federalist Society, and the Heritage Foundation, which have been instrumental in shaping a stronger unitary executive since the Reagan administration.For instance, Project 2025 recommends dismissing all Department of State employees in leadership roles before January 20, 2025, and replacing them with ideologically vetted leaders appointed to acting roles that do not require Senate confirmation. Kiron Skinner, who authored the State Department chapter of the project, has expressed her belief that most State Department employees are too left-wing and should be replaced by those more loyal to a conservative president. When questioned about specific instances where State Department employees obstructed Trump policy, Skinner admitted she could not name any such occurrences, highlighting the ideological rather than pragmatic basis of these recommendations.The project also includes a 180-day playbook with specific steps for implementing these reforms, starting with a prepared stack of Executive Orders ready for the new president to sign on the first day in office. This rapid implementation is designed to ensure that the new administration can swiftly consolidate power and begin dismantling existing structures.A crucial component of Project 2025 is the use of Schedule F, a scheme that allows for the hiring of unlimited political appointees without expiration dates. This mechanism also enables the transfer of apolitical civil service employees into Schedule F, stripping them of their protections against corruption, political overreach, and abuse of power. As described in the project documentation, this would give the president and political loyalists full control over the Executive Branch, allowing them to act for personal and political gain without checks.The implications of these changes are far-reaching. By placing the entire executive branch under direct presidential control, Project 2025 threatens to undermine the independence of critical agencies such as the Department of Justice, the FBI, the Federal Communications Commission, and the Federal Trade Commission. This centralization of power could lead to a significant erosion of democratic checks and balances, potentially resulting in devastating consequences for workers, the environment, and public health, as noted by the Center for Progressive Reform.Experts and critics alike have sounded alarms about the potential impacts of Project 2025. The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) has highlighted the immense implications of such a radical shift in governance, particularly if it aligns with the re-election of a president like Donald Trump. The AFL-CIO's American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE) warns that the plan could lead to the termination of up to 1 million federal workers, drastically altering the landscape of the federal workforce.As we approach the 2024 elections and the potential implementation of Project 2025 in 2025, the stakes are high. The next few months will be critical in determining whether this vision for a more centralized and ideologically driven federal government becomes a reality. If implemented, Project 2025 would mark a significant departure from the traditional balance of power in American governance, raising fundamental questions about the future of democracy and the role of the executive branch.In the words of those behind Project 2025, this is a "Mandate for Leadership" aimed at reshaping the federal government in a conservative image. However, for many, it represents a dangerous path toward authoritarianism and the dismantling of essential safeguards. As the nation prepares for this potential transformation, it is imperative to engage in a robust and informed discussion about the future of American governance and the implications of such profound changes.

In our latest Dying Your Way podcast episode, I’m joined by the luminous Dr. Toni Reilly—renowned psychotherapist, past-life specialist, and now author of the soul-stirring book Grief is Not the Death of You. It’s been five years since I last interviewed Toni, and what a journey she’s been on since then. In this intimate and honest conversation, we explore how grief—whether from death, divorce, identity loss, or even the breakdown of belief systems—is not something to avoid or push through, but a transformative teacher. We go deep into: Why grief is one of the three great pinnacles of human experience: birth, grief, and death How grief strips us of control and awakens empathy The importance of witnessing and holding space, without trying to fix anything Why letting someone cry uninterrupted is a gift—and why hugging too soon might stop a breakthrough How Toni’s groundbreaking recall therapy (including past-life and afterlife encounters) helps people shift perspectives during profound loss Why society fails at supporting the grieving—and how we can all do better Toni’s insights are both mystical and deeply practical. Whether you are in grief, supporting someone who is, or simply seeking a more soulful understanding of life’s hardest moments—this conversation will stay with you.

Let that sink in. A gut-health soda brand that didn't even exist a decade ago is now a multibillion-dollar player — without some bloated VC war chest or Super Bowl ads. Why? Because they didn't just sell a drink. They sold vitality without boredom. Just like Liquid Death isn't selling water. They're selling rebellion in a can. This matters to you because your agency clients are still playing the safe game. Bland branding. Forgettable messaging. Funnel tweaks and ad spend tricks. But the world doesn't reward better. It rewards different. And that's where you come in. Your Agency's Real Role You're not here to push pixels or track conversions. You're here to make your clients matter. To help them stop blending in and start building brands that get followed, shared, and loved. In this episode we'll break down exactly how to do that—with a proven playbook called the “HELL YES” Framework. But first, let's look at what these breakout brands got right. The Big Brand Lessons (You Should Be Using) Help Clients Define What They Believe in (And What They're Against). Poppi didn't sell soda. They sold gut health. Liquid Death didn't sell water. They sold identity. Brands that break out don't try to be better. They choose to be louder about what they stand for. Build a Brand that Lives Beyond The Product. Help them create their presence in culture. What's the founders point of view? What's the audience they want to turn into a community. From reels & TikTok make sure that message is out there. Package. Reframe offer as outcomes, not service. Teach them to Create Demand. Help them post scroll-stopping content that really builds trust from someone that'll want to learn more. Help Them Become Known for Something. Your clients will need a signature method that is repeatable and has a catchy name. That's how they'll own a category. The HELL YES Framework (How to Build Brands That Get Followed) Here's the full breakdown from Jason's playbook: H – Hook with a Belief Choose a bold POV. Rally people around something real. Don't try to please everyone—draw a line. E – Elevate the Outcome Sell transformation, not tasks. Rename and reframe. “The Visibility Engine” beats “SEO setup” every time. L – Lead with Culture Get them living where the culture lives—Reels, TikTok, Shorts. Turn content into a vibe. L – Lock in Their Framework Give their offer a name. A method. A repeatable process. That's how they own a category. Y – Yield to Simplicity Kill the fluff. Be painfully clear. One offer. One CTA. No jargon. E – Engineer the Experience Make onboarding and delivery unforgettable. Brand the process. Delight people. S – Share the Wins Loud Don't just toss out metrics—tell the story. Make the transformation the headline. Real Talk: You're Sitting on the Solution You've already got the skills. The strategy. The services. What your agency really needs is a sharper positioning and a clearer method — just like Zach and Jack did. Whether you're stuck pitching work that doesn't excite you anymore or just tired of clients treating you like a vendor, the shift starts here. And if you're ready to build a brand that people don't just buy from, but believe in… Let's stop chasing better. Start building bolder. Because when your agency leads movements, not just marketing—you become unforgettable. Agency Mastermind Still feel like you're winging it? You're not alone. Most agency owners hit a plateau because they're stuck in the business, buried in decisions, and disconnected from people who get it. The agencies killing it and scaling faster found out they needed to be in the right room.

Send me a DM here (it doesn't let me respond), OR email me: imagineabetterworld2020@gmail.comToday I'm honored to have back on the show for a second time: United Church Minister turned whistleblower, Canadian Hero, father of two, published writer and author, public speaker and podcaster, documentary filmmaker, Nobel Peace Prize nominee, co-founder of the International Tribunal into Crimes of Church and State, righteous soul, and Eagle Strong Voice: Kevin AnnettIn case you missed Kevin's first episode or if you are new here, here is a recap of Kevin's testimony: Kevin, a former United Church minister turned fearless whistleblower, stands as a Canadian hero in the relentless pursuit of truth and justice. For decades, he's exposed the horrific genocide of Indigenous children in church-run Indian Residential Schools, uncovering a dark campaign of abuse, murder, and cultural annihilation with a staggering 50% death rate. At great personal cost - his career, family, and reputation - Kevin sparked a global movement, becoming a beacon for survivors and a thorn in the side of the powerful.In the 1990s, his discoveries in Port Alberni, British Columbia, shattered his world and ignited his mission. He convened the first independent Tribunal into residential school crimes in 1998, founded The Truth Commission into Genocide in Canada in 2000, authored ‘Hidden from History: The Canadian Holocaust in 2001', and released the award-winning documentary ‘Unrepentant' in 2007. His work forced Canada's 2008 apology, though his name was erased from the narrative.Undaunted, Kevin co-founded the International Tribunal into Crimes of Church and State (ITCCS) in 2010, uniting survivors across 26 countries. His efforts led to the 2011 excavation of children's bones in Brantford, Ontario, and the 2012 prosecution of Pope Benedict, contributing to the pontiff's historic resignation. Despite blacklisting, smear campaigns, and state persecution - including a fraudulent 2021 COVID order targeting him - Kevin persists. He's authored over a dozen books, founded the Republic of Kanata in 2015, and earned two Nobel Peace Prize nominations. Today, Kevin's unyielding voice inspires millions to confront genocide, child trafficking, and oppression, proving one person's courage can change the world.Today, Kevin returns to continue his riveting saga as a relentless whistleblower and advocate. We'll dive into fresh evidence of these heinous crimes, explore how to prosecute and halt them through independent jurisdictions, and discuss the transformative potential of common law courts, sovereign Republics, and personal sovereignty. Kevin will share more of his harrowing experiences, offer insights from his Whistleblower's Manual, and inspire with his unwavering resolve. CONNECT WITH KEVIN:Email: angelfire101@protonmail.comPhone: 289-680-8724Websites:-Republic of Kanata: https://republicofkanata.org/-Radio Free Kanata: https://bbsradio.com/radiofreekanata-'Murder by Decree' & other books published by Kevin: https://murderbydecree.com/#books-'Unrepentant' Documentary: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Czej73SfYJcCONNECT WITH THE IMAGINATION:EMAIL: imagineabetterworld2020@gmail.comBUY ME A COFFEE: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/theimaginationAll links: https://direct.me/theimaginationpodcastRIFE TECHNOLOGIES:https://realrifetechnology.com/15% Code: Support the show

Writer and professor Melissa Febos had been in a series of consecutive relationships for decades. Then, one particularly devastating experience led her to take stock of her dependency on sex and love. She says she was in "the right amount of pain" to make a change. For Febos, that period kicked off what would become a year of transformative celibacy. Her new book The Dry Season chronicles the way abstinence from sex and relationships allowed Febos to awaken to her desires, motivations and decisions in a new way. In today's episode, she speaks with Marielle Segarra – host of NPR's Life Kit podcast – about how this year changed her outlook on attraction, attention, dancing, and the divine.To listen to Book of the Day sponsor-free and support NPR's book coverage, sign up for Book of the Day+ at plus.npr.org/bookofthedayLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

What if your life could become a masterpiece of intentional creativity? Join us as we explore this possibility with Pia Leichter, an author, founder, creative director and guide in this special 30-minute episode.   Celebrating the Creative Potential Within Us All In our conversation with Pia, we dive into the essence of creativity as a vital force beyond the arts, challenging the common misconception that it exists solely in artistic endeavors. She shares insights on how creativity is akin to teaching and coaching, requiring courage and the willingness to embrace uncertainty. We also explore creativity in unexpected domains, from science to law, and highlight its universality, encouraging everyone to recognize their inherent creative potential, irrespective of their field or background.   Shared wisdom and stories, like Pia's rather spontaneous decision to take a four-week journey on the Trans-Siberian Railway, illustrate how we hold the power to rewrite our narratives. We also delve into practical steps for nurturing creativity in everyday life, from morning routines to visualizing desired outcomes, empowering listeners to take control of their own creative destinies.   A Bit More About Our Wise Guest Pia Leichter is a creative partner, published author, certified coach, and entrepreneur. Influenced by her mother's boldness and her father's artistic background, creativity for Pia Leichter is not limited to traditional art forms. Instead it is a way of life that permeates every decision and every moment.   Pia's journey from Canada to New York and eventually Copenhagen has been nothing short of transformative. A recovering nomad, she's reported as a journalist in Sri Lanka, graduated summa cum laude from NYU, and worked as an award-winning creative director for some of the biggest brands in the world. Now, as the founder of Kollektiv Studio, she's uniquely positioned to co-create ventures and wild visions.    Pia recently published a book titled, “Welcome to the Creative Club.” Her book is part memoir and part guidebook, and it will challenge everything you thought you knew about creativity.   She joins us from her home in Copenhagen, Denmark. Over the next hour, you will discover why Pia Leichter is one of the wisest people I know.   Resources Pia's website Kollektiv Studio Get Pia's book “Welcome to the Creative Club” via our Bookshop or via Amazon   Credits Editor + Technical Advisor Bob Hotchkiss Brand + Strategy Advisor Andy Malinoski PR + Partnerships Advisor Rachel Bell Marketing, Social Media and Graphic Design Chloe Lineberg   Stay Connected with Us on Social YouTube @themainthingpod Twitter @themainthingpod Instagram @themainthingpod Facebook  @TheMainThingPod LinkedIn   Help Support and Sustain This Podcast Become a subscriber.

Years ago, Olivia Sproat stood at a crossroads. As a provisional psychologist and former counselor, she was drawn to a unique women's rehabilitation prison in Australia—a place where the focus on compassion and respect seemed to offer a glimmer of hope. Today, she joins us to share her journey into this transformative field, where a pioneering program has slashed recidivism rates to an astonishing 6%, compared to the usual 40%. Through her eyes, we explore how addressing the specific barriers faced by women, especially mothers battling addiction, can carve out meaningful paths to recovery. The notion of prison life is often clouded by preconceived ideas about punishment and confinement. However, Olivia paints an entirely different picture of Wandoo prison, where emotional safety and community are at the forefront. She reveals how conflict resolution, emotional regulation, and mentorship transform lives within its walls. The therapeutic community here is more than just a concept; it's a living, breathing system that encourages trust and vulnerability, allowing women to connect deeply with their peers and themselves. Olivia's insights challenge traditional punitive models, advocating for a system rooted in kindness and support. In this episode, you will hear: Transformative power of compassionate rehabilitation in a unique women's prison in Australia Olivia Sproat's journey as a provisional psychologist and former counselor at Wandoo prison Therapeutic community model slashing recidivism rates to 6% Addressing barriers faced by incarcerated women, especially mothers battling addiction Emotional safety, conflict resolution, and mentorship fostering profound change Dichotomy of external versus internal freedom explored within prison walls Follow and Review: We'd love for you to follow us if you haven't yet.
