In this week's episode, I take the mic solo to reflect on the passing of Pope Francis and what his legacy means for faith, culture, and the ever-present world of politics. Raised in a deeply Catholic family, my experience as both a political commentator and a lifelong Catholic gives me a unique lens on how Church leadership ripples into our communities and institutions. My journey through religion, personal loss, and public service shapes how I look at the Catholic Church’s pivotal moments—and what comes next. I share candid and personal thoughts on the influence of Pope Francis, from his humble roots as the first Latin American Pope to the bold, sometimes controversial stances he took on climate change, LGBTQ inclusion, and the evolving role of women in the Church. I question how politics weaves its way into religion—and vice versa—and explore what it means when Church leaders step into the political spotlight. I don’t hold back about my critiques, including my call for married and female priests, and my opinion on separating personal choice from public policy. I also take you inside the secretive papal conclave, share my vision for a younger, more progressive Pope, and reflect on a moving personal encounter with Pope Francis in Rome. “Politics is in every bit of life. There’s politics in your offices, there’s politics in your friend groups, there’s politics in your tennis team, there’s politics in your playgroup.” ~Jennifer Nassour This week on Political Contessa: My reflections on Pope Francis’ legacy and his passing Pope Francis’ historic firsts and progressive actions The impact of Church's stances on major social and political issues Why I believe we should welcome married and female priests My critiques of conservatism and calls for reforming the Church The secretive process behind the papal conclave The essential role of women in transmitting faith and values Why there's politics in every layer of life Awaken Your Inner Political Contessa Thanks for tuning into this week’s episode of Political Contessa.

In this crossover episode from the China Talk podcast, Nathan Labenz shares a thought-provoking conversation between Jordan Schneider, Ilari Michaela, and Professor David C. Kang that challenges conventional Western perspectives on East Asian international relations. Professor Kang argues that studying East Asian history on its own terms reveals a remarkably stable geopolitical system spanning nearly a millennium, where China maintained regional dominance without conquest through compatible cultures and mutual understanding. This alternative framework offers valuable insights that question the seemingly inevitable US-China competition narrative dominating AI discourse, suggesting that internal challenges may be more significant than external threats for both China and the United States.

Tom welcomes back John Rubino, Former Wall Street Analyst, Author & Substacker for a discussion on the current economic landscape and its implications for investors. Rubino discusses the end of a credit supercycle, highlighting the risks of hyperinflation, deflation, and stagflation due to global fiat currency systems. He emphasizes the importance of real assets like gold, silver, and energy during potential financial chaos. Rubino also addresses the role of energy prices, particularly oil, in driving inflation or deflation. He suggests that lower oil prices could lead to a short-term deflationary period, followed by inflationary pressures as central banks respond with low interest rates. This creates uncertainty but opportunities for resilient investments. The discussion touches on President Trump's policies, including tariffs and reshoring, which could lead to wage inflation and geopolitical tensions. Rubino warns against the risks of negative interest rates and the potential need for a currency reset, possibly returning to a gold standard. For investors, Rubino recommends focusing on real assets such as precious metals, energy, and farmland. He suggests dollar-cost averaging in gold and silver and cautious investment in mining stocks, particularly mid-tier and explorers with growth potential. Jurisdictional risks, especially in countries like Mexico, are highlighted as critical considerations. Rubino also stresses building personal resilience through community ties, skill development, and owning productive assets.

In this powerful episode of the Thrive Today podcast, host Natalie Born sits down with Jordan Loftis, founder and CEO of Story Chorus and author of "Unleash Your Authentic Voice." They explore the painful reality of betrayal in leadership and how to navigate it without becoming cynical or closed off. Through personal stories and biblical wisdom, they reveal how betrayal can become a catalyst for growth rather than a reason to build walls. This conversation offers practical insights for leaders who have experienced betrayal and are seeking to move forward with wisdom and an open heart. [00:01 - 05:17] The Universal Experience of Betrayal - Betrayal appears to be an unavoidable aspect of leadership across business and ministry - Leaders who integrate faith and business often experience similarly deep pain when betrayed - The depth of pain often correlates with the depth of investment in the relationship [05:18 - 10:37] Stories from the Trenches: Overcoming Betrayal - Investing in an employee's dreams only to be repaid with lies and exploitation - Despite the betrayal, they maintained integrity by refusing to launch a counter-offensive - The community supports and prays for their betrayers' blessing [10:38 - 15:06] The Danger of Self-Protection - Unaddressed betrayal can lead to building walls that not only keep others out but God as well - The stories we tell ourselves about betrayal often cause more harm than the event itself - Leaders often blame themselves with thoughts like "If I was better, this wouldn't have happened" [15:07 - 22:00] Guarding Your Heart Without Closing It - Betrayal hurts most when it comes from people you've invested in deeply - The goal shouldn't be to never feel pain again, but to continue fulfilling your purpose despite pain - Surrounding yourself with the right people during betrayal is crucial for healthy processing [22:01 - 27:53] Finding Redemption in Betrayal - God can use betrayal situations for spiritual formation when we surrender control - Betrayal often reveals what's truly in our hearts, like sediment in a cup when it's bumped - The experience can lead to wisdom without cynicism Key Quotes: "If our God could take the worst thing that has ever happened in human history, which is the murder of Jesus, his son... and win the greatest victory in the history of the universe, then what can he do with our situation?" - Jordan Loftis "You can't poison the well without poisoning all the water." - Jordan Loftis Connect with Jordan: Website: https://swift.storychorus.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jordanloftis Follow Thrive Today on Instagram (@thrivetodaywomen) and visit our website at Thrive Today.

What if the world you see isn't the world at all, but merely a flicker of light on the edges of a far grander reality? This is the question that lingers in the air as we welcome Ibrahim Karim, a visionary thinker and the founder of BioGeometry, whose work explores the hidden forces shaping our perception of time, space, and consciousness. If we are only perceiving two percent of reality, what wonders remain unseen? And more importantly—what happens when we begin to access the other ninety-eight?In this profound conversation, Ibrahim Karim unveils the ancient wisdom buried beneath modern civilization's rational mind. He speaks of the ways in which human perception has shifted over time, from the subconscious unity of early humanity to the left-brained dominance of modern man. With this shift, something vital was lost—an open door to the subconscious, the bridge between our sensory world and the unseen forces that shape it. “You think you ask the question and got the answer, but actually it's the answer inside you that prompted you to ask the question,” he reveals. And that, perhaps, is the secret to understanding all great mysteries.If ancient civilizations accessed a deeper reality, how did they do it?According to Ibrahim Karim, their connection to the unseen was not mystical fantasy, but a precise understanding of the physics of quality—a science beyond numbers, one that acknowledges energy, resonance, and life force as fundamental aspects of creation. Unlike today, where we define reality through measurement, the ancients lived in a world that breathed, that responded, that spoke in symbols and synchronicities. It was a world where the material and the immaterial were seamlessly interwoven.And here we stand, in an era where artificial intelligence and technological advancement are leading us further away from nature, from that ancient wisdom. Ibrahim Karim warns that as we continue down this path, we risk severing ourselves entirely from the life force that sustains us. Yet, the solution is not to abandon technology, but to reintroduce life force into it. If we can harmonize our creations with the energetic blueprint of the universe, we might not only heal our bodies, but the planet itself.Perhaps the most fascinating idea of all is that of multidimensional time—the notion that reality does not move in a straight line, but pulses outward like ripples on an infinite ocean. If time is not linear, then neither is our existence. Reincarnation, past lives, even death itself become not destinations but interwoven threads in a much larger tapestry. We do not move from one life to the next in a straight line—we are, instead, shifting between dimensions of experience that have always existed.This knowledge, however, is not something that can simply be written down or studied in books. It is something to be lived, to be felt. The temples of the ancients, as Ibrahim Karim explains, were not places of learning, but of experience. And perhaps, that is the true message here: reality is not something to be understood—it is something to be engaged with. It is something to be danced with, like a flame in the wind.SPIRITUAL TAKEAWAYSPerception is Reality, But Not the Whole Reality – We only see a fragment of what exists. True wisdom is not about adding more knowledge, but expanding awareness beyond the senses.Healing is a Return to the Source – When we restore our connection to the life force that permeates the universe, true healing—of the body, mind, and planet—becomes possible.Time is Not What We Think – The past, present, and future are not separate. They exist simultaneously, layered within our consciousness, waiting for us to tune in.As we close this conversation, one thing is certain: reality is far more mysterious than we ever imagined. What we see, what we hear, what we think we know—it is only the surface of something vast and timeless, something that has been whispering to us since the beginning of creation. The question is—are we listening?Please enjoy my conversation with Ibrahim Karim.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/next-level-soul-podcast-with-alex-ferrari--4858435/support.

NEW! "The 40's Stretch" - A new season from Stretch Marks PodcastWe are stretching - this time into our 40's. Tracy Clifford a leading 2fm broadcaster joins me to talk about figuring out life, finding her career confidence in her 40's - while also figuring out Silent Endometriosis and a complicated fertility journey. Painful periods are one of the first things as woman we are taught to “just get on with”. Unavoidable and unrelenting. And so begins a relationship with denying what our body might be trying to tell us in the hope that we can mask our discomfort and limit our shame. Here Tracy gets really open about her symptoms, her diagnosis, her anger that other women don't know what to look out for yet and a culture of masking not fixing our female health.The Endometriosis Association of Ireland is hosting their annual event on Saturday 29th of March 2025 in the Maldron Hotel in Dublin. Tickets are €25 - click here for more information Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Quotes from the episode Most of my students have not heard cogent arguments on the other side of whatever they whatever their own position is because they've been so siloed. -Simon Cullen In every one of these classes the point is to try and confront students with the strongest arguments I can find, ideally for the thing they don't believe. -Simon Cullen The first thing they hear from me is if you wish to avoid the risk of being offended, then you should probably not be taking this class. -Simon Cullen In philosophy, we always embrace disagreement. -Nicholas DiBella We have designed the guide is to be as neutral as possible. -Nicholas DiBella Resources Sway Website Experimental results Student feedback Transcripts of Real Chats From Students and Experimental participants Feedback From Students About Simon's Dangerous Ideas Carnegie Mellon Course In Praise of Ignorance: To have a chance at solving our problems we must not condemn each other for openly stating our ignorance, by Simon Cullen Mike Caulfield's SIFT Over or Under: We Asked a Physicist to End the World's Great Toilet Paper Debate, by VICE Staff AI is Unavoidable, Not Inevitable, by Marc Watkins I want your attention.

A Clare hotelier fears widespread job losses in the hospitality sector will be unavoidable in 2025. It comes as Finance Minster Paschal Donoghue announced this week that any decisions on further reductions to the hospitality VAT rate won't be made until Budget 2026. It has already been confirmed that some sectors will see a reduction to 9%, however this will mostly apply to the food sector. Co-owner of Hotel Woodstock in Ennis and Clare Tourism Advisory Forum Chair, Sean Lally, says businesses will have to let staff go to stay in business.

AVOID THE CBDC AND FINANCIAL RUIN HERE: https://firstnationalbullion.com/schedule-consult/ Buy gold and work with Mark Gonzales! Josh Sigurdson talks with Mark Gonzales about the imminence of the collapse of the global economy and the revived, historic global recession that's been papered over and bubbled up for 17 years. As Ed Dowd warns, regardless of who is in office, the recession will take place. While we're obviously not in favor of mass migration, the migration was used to artificially prop up the economy. Now that they're being deported, that false liquidity will dissipate on top of an already extremely volatile system built to fail. With over 30 trillion dollars in debt, this is not fixable no matter how good one's intentions may be (and that's yet to be seen). Meanwhile, there is a banking crisis, there's essentially no liquidity left in the banks and while they're facing collapse, in many places like the UK under Starmer, they're bringing in new rules to spy on people. Coming to a place near you soon under the CBDC system complete with digital IDs and of course the UBI programs being put in place as we speak. Order out of chaos. Nothing new there. As all of this is occurring, there are runs on banks for gold for which there is a global shortage of. Many experts like James Turk believe that gold will $10,902. While this seems high to some, it seems obvious to those paying attention to inflation vs the gold price. Simply as wealth insurance, gold can break $100,000 if the dollar is worth 98% less. In this video we break down why this is so important, why people have to stop seeing this issue as fear mongering and why people need to prepare against it so to not fall prey to the technocratic system that will replace it.

In this special edition of The Best Boss Podcast, Danny Ceballos is joined by six incredible executive and leadership coaches (The Hive) to tackle one of today's most pressing challenges: managing stress in the workplace. With burnout rates at an all-time high and the cost of turnover soaring, this episode dives deep into how leaders can identify, understand, and mitigate stress—for themselves, their teams, and their organizations. The Hive shares actionable insights, powerful metaphors, and practical advice to help leaders cultivate resilience, foster trust, and create healthier workplace cultures. The conversation highlights the importance of connection, trust, and balance, emphasizing that while stress is unavoidable, it can be managed effectively with the right strategies. Whether you're a CEO, a manager, or a leader at any level, this episode is packed with wisdom to help you lead with purpose and clarity. Key Takeaways: Stress is Unavoidable but Manageable: Recognize the difference between healthy pressure that motivates and destructive stress that drains energy and creativity. Burnout Is a Bottom-Line Issue: With 63% of high-performing employees citing burnout as a reason to seek new roles, addressing workplace stress is critical to retaining top talent. The Goldilocks Zone of Stress: Leaders must find the right balance of pressure—neither too loose nor too tight—to achieve peak performance and creativity. Connection Is the Antidote to Stress: Building meaningful relationships at work fosters trust, reduces stress, and enhances overall team performance. Leaders Set the Tone: By modeling vulnerability, balance, and self-awareness, leaders can influence their teams to adopt healthier stress management practices. Purpose Drives Resilience: Helping employees connect to the "why" behind their work increases engagement and helps them navigate challenging tasks. Positive Intelligence as a Framework: Practices like pausing and grounding help leaders and teams shift from reactivity to creativity, enabling better decision-making under stress. Customize, Don't Cookie-Cut: A one-size-fits-all approach to stress management doesn't work. Tailor strategies to individual and organizational needs for maximum impact. Workplace Wellbeing Is Non-Negotiable: Post-pandemic, employees are demanding workplaces that prioritize wellbeing—a key opportunity for leaders to innovate and retain talent. The Power of the Pause: Slowing down to reassess priorities, tune into needs, and recalibrate can lead to better outcomes for individuals and teams alike.

A new MP3 sermon from The Narrated Puritan is now available on SermonAudio with the following details: Title: Unavoidable Judgment Follows A Sinful Nation's Unheeded Warnings Subtitle: John Owen Sermons Speaker: John Owen Broadcaster: The Narrated Puritan Event: Audiobook Date: 11/4/2024 Bible: 2 Chronicles 36:15-17 Length: 11 min.

It is a part and duty of spiritual wisdom, as also an evidence of a due reverence of God, to take notice of extraordinary occurrences in the dispensations of his providence; for they are instructive warnings, and of great importance in his government of the world. In them the "voice of the Lord crieth unto the city, and the man of wisdom shall see his name." And there is a mark left on them, -- as profligate persons, -- who will not see when his hand is so lifted up.

The media often misses the church's importance and the life-changing power of faith in Jesus. Dr. John explores this by comparing worldly kingdoms to God's lasting kingdom, drawing wisdom from 1 Corinthians 2:6-8. As Jesus approaches Jerusalem, the focus shifts to how His sacrifice establishes God's kingdom. He highlights how small beginnings—like the mustard seed and leaven—can lead to significant growth and impact, illustrating the triumph of God's kingdom over worldly powers.The Unwavering Journey: In this series of messages, Dr. John unpacks Luke 9-13, exploring Jesus' unwavering journey as He sets his face toward Jerusalem, fully aware of the sacrifice ahead. With every step, he moves closer to fulfilling God's ultimate plan of salvation, offering us redemption through his selfless love and ultimate sacrifice.

People are obsessed with life; no one wants to die. In fact, we are scared to death of dying. Most of us are familiar with the saying, "You only live once." But we have to ask ourselves an all-important question: What happens to us after we die? For most people, death is either a great mystery or a subject of great denial. However, the fact remains – we all die. What if this life is not all there is? What if there actually is life after death? If so, who can tell us what happens after we die? Because of His firsthand experience in heaven and His knowledge of the future, Jesus can. He presents us with three basic truths about the subject of life after death: 1. There is life after death. 2. There are two destinations from which everyone must choose. 3. There is a way to ensure you make the right choice. Right now, you may be dying of thirst, but you don't have to perish in your thirst. Likewise, you may be overcome with sin, but you don't have to die in your sins. There is something you can do, right now, to ensure that when you die, you will have everlasting life and happiness. The most important thing you must do in this life is to make sure you don't die in your sins. God sent his Son into the world not to judge the world, but to save the world through him. – John 3:17 (NLT)

Unavoidable evidence of the catastrophic consequences of climate change confronts us at every turn. Record high ocean temperatures. Once-a-century storms that appear every other year. And on and on. In the face of ongoing ecological disaster, international best-selling author Kōhei Saitō asks why our society continues to prioritize corporate profits (and the rapacious expansion on which they depend), and proposes a revolutionary alternative to unfettered capitalism: degrowth communism. In Slow Down, Saitō provocatively argues that any solutions that don't directly confront capitalism itself—from the COP agreements to the “Green New Deal”—represent dangerous compromises that may ultimately worsen the climate emergency. Because it creates artificial scarcity and endlessly produces commodities based on their value, rather than their usefulness, our economic system itself makes it impossible to reverse climate change so long as capitalism remains in place. The biggest contributor to the problem cannot be an integral part of its solution. Instead, Saitō advocates for degrowth and deceleration, which he conceives as the slowing of economic activity through the democratic reform of labor and our system of production. By returning to a system of social ownership, degrowth communism, we can restore the abundance of things that we truly need, and can focus on those activities that are essential for human life. What would this alternative look like? How do we end mass production and mass consumption without reducing living standards? What do we need to do to redress global inequality without accelerating the rate at which the planet burns? For this launch event Saitō will be in conversation on all of this, and more, with Science for the People editor, and Pilsen Community Books collective member and CounterPunch Radio co-host Erik Wallenberg. This event occurred on May 24, 2024 at Haymarket House in Chicago. More The post Degrowth Communism: Kōhei Saitō appeared first on CounterPunch.org.
