    Counterfeit Kingdom: Decoding the Symbols of Saturn and Divine Designs In this thought-provoking episode of Right On Radio, host Jeff invites listeners on a journey to explore the dimensions of spiritual and worldly realms through captivating discussions and insightful videos. Jeff tackles the profound question of how far heaven truly is, introducing listeners to two intriguing videos that promise to reveal hidden truths. The first segment delves deep into the occult symbolism surrounding Saturn, a planet often associated with various esoteric beliefs. From the black cube of Saturn and the six-pointed stars to the eerie parallels between the Saturnian rituals and modern corporate logos, the episode sheds light on how ancient connections play a significant role in today's world. The video further examines the planet's ties to the biblical Satan and its imagery related to control and negativity. Transitioning into the spiritual realm, the episode shifts focus to the celestial vision of New Jerusalem as described in the Bible. Jeff dissects the scriptures to elucidate how the dimensions of New Jerusalem might suggest a divine connection between heaven and earth, disrupting the counterfeit narratives perpetuated throughout history. Speculations on the firmament, heaven's tangible proximity, and Jesus as the ultimate bridge between the realms leave listeners contemplating their spiritual beliefs and the world's hidden truths. This episode challenges listeners to reflect on the counterfeiting of spiritual truths by worldly powers and encourages active engagement in recognizing the divine designs in life's complexities.

    Text us your questions!What happens when a successful religious leader transitions genders and loses everything? Reverend Dr. Paula Stone Williams takes us on her extraordinary journey from privilege to authenticity.Paula once stood at the pinnacle of evangelical success – CEO of a large nonprofit, television host, magazine editor. But beneath this accomplished exterior lived a truth she'd known since childhood: she was transgender. When she finally answered what she describes as a "calling" toward authenticity (instigated by the TV show Lost, belive it or not!), the cost was staggering. Paula lost her jobs, her pension, and virtually all professional connections overnight, earning less than $6,000 annually for four years after transition.This conversation reveals Paula's unique perspective as someone who has experienced life on both sides of the gender divide. Her observations about male privilege are particularly illuminating – "I'll not live long enough to lose my white male entitlement. I brought it with me," she notes, while describing the jarring experience of suddenly being dismissed, patronized, and underestimated in professional settings after transition.Rather than abandoning faith after being rejected by her religious community, Paula describes developing a deeper, more nuanced spirituality. She frames this transformation as moving from a "left-brain heavy faith" focused on doctrine toward one embracing intuition and mystery, leading to a more authentic connection with Jesus's teachings.Paula brings refreshing nuance to often polarized conversations about transgender issues, distinguishing between different manifestations of gender dysphoria while expressing concerns about some current treatment approaches. For church leaders navigating these complex waters, she offers practical advice from her extensive experience leading religious communities.Through her book As a Woman, viral TED Talks, and speaking engagements worldwide, Paula now shares the wisdom gained from her journey, through both profound loss and unexpected discovery.

    In this engaging episode, Guy talked with Marty Wuttke, a pioneering neurofeedback expert and meditation practitioner, about the critical role of brain function in spiritual awakening and rehabilitation. Marty delved into the science of neuroplasticity, the transformative effects of meditation, and the powerful healing potential within each individual. He shared insights from his extensive experience working with thousands of clients and explains how neurofeedback can assist in treating anxiety, depression, and other disorders. Additionally, Marty recapped his personal journey from overcoming addiction to establishing a meditative and spiritual practice that has shaped his approach to healing. The discussion also touches on the significance of body work and holistic methods in achieving mental and physical well-being. About Marty: As a pioneer in the field of bio- and neurofeedback, Marty developed his unique and holistic approach to neurotherapy (Wuttke Method) based on over 35 years of experience in the field. Beginning as a deeply committed meditation teacher, he quickly saw the need for adding a scientifically based, neurophysiological component to catalyze meditation training and help meditators reach a freer and happier life.  Marty was affiliated with Ridgecrest Hospital and Woodridge Psychiatric Hospital from 1984 to 1995, where he designed and directed the first large-scale inpatient neurofeedback program in the United States. Neurofeedback was used at the hospital as an integral part of the treatment program for over 11 years. Marty was responsible for QEEG evaluation, analyses and application. More than 1500 patients went through his neurofeedback training.  Marty is a pioneer in combining multiple protocols of neurofeedback training as a self-regulation tool for people suffering from a wide array of issues, including: depression, traumatic brain injury, nicotine dependence, eating disorders, chronic pain, anxiety, chemical dependency, and alcoholism. He continues to develop, research, and teach protocols for neurofeedback applications with ADD/ADHD, learning disabilities and developmental disorders, autoimmune disorders, and stress related disorders. In 2003, new advanced whole-body neuro/biofeedback technology hardware and software was developed under Marty's guidance.

    What happens when leadership isn't about control but about a shared goal? What if the future business world looks more like a team, not a hierarchy? As more companies reconsider the traditional structures, models like worker cooperatives and employee-owned cooperatives are gaining momentum. They offer a way to codify culture, share decision-making, and maintain purpose beyond the founder's occupancy. These models present an agreeable alternative in a time when millions of small businesses face uncertain futures. It's time to see ownership as not a privilege for the few but a path for the many.  John Abrams is a succession planning consultant, workplace democracy advocate, author, and the co-founder of both South Mountain Company and Abrams+Angell. He retired and handed over the company he started at age 24 in 2022, and started Abrams+Angell with his partner. They consult with the triple bottom line (TBL) businesses to help them with succession planning, worker co-op conversions, financial literacy, leadership development, and business effectiveness. He is the author of “From Founder to Future: A Business Roadmap to Impact, Longevity, and Employee Ownership,” which provides knowledge, strategies, and tools to help business owners successfully complete transitions. He joined us today to talk about forgetting hierarchy and running a company as a true team.  HIGHLIGHTS [02:30] Understanding B corporations.  [05:56] The Impact of Codifying Company Culture.  [10:24] The importance of clear leadership for effective decision-making.  [13:00] The differences between worker cooperatives, ESOPs, and employee ownership trusts. [15:00] What is democracy in business? [18:07] The importance of listening in a coorperative environment.  [19:35] Turning the leadership into the next generation.  [23:45] Open book management.  [28:44] Employee ownership options.    KEY TAKEAWAYS Regardless of how formal your systems become, stay focused on the human connection.  Protect what makes your culture unique; growth and structure don't erase the personal touch.  Define roles and trust them, collaborations don't mean everyone decides everything.  Hire people who align with your values, not just job descriptions.  Transitioning leadership takes intention, patience, and trust.    RESOURCES Connect with John Abrams LinkedIn – linkedin.com/in/john-abrams-3bb94683/  Website - abramsangell.com/    From Founder to Future: A Business Roadmap to Impact, Longevity, and Employee Ownership By John Abrams amazon.com/Founder-Future-Business-Longevity-Ownership/dp/1523006811    90-Day High-Performance Dashboard You can't afford to let your people drift.
