Your gut lining rebuilds itself every five days — faster than any other tissue in your body — and that turnover rate is either your best defense or your biggest vulnerability, depending on what you're doing to it. In the final episode of this series with stem cell scientist and STEMREGEN founder Christian Drapeau, Eric Malzone digs into why the intestinal lining is "the most fragile and vulnerable part of your body," how estrogen withdrawal at menopause quietly wrecks gut repair, and why Christian believes the real story of aging isn't inflammation or free radicals — it's a failure of the body's own repair system. They also get into a jaw-dropping 1940s case study on gut bacteria and psychosis, the specific bacteria linked to autoimmune disease and diabetes, and why Christian thinks "stem cells bring cure" is the hardest sentence in modern medicine.

A year can change everything—and sometimes the thing you thought you wanted shows up at the exact moment you're no longer sure what you want.In Act Two of When I Thought She Was the One, Coach Bryan returns to TM Camp in the summer of 1999, carrying memories from the year before and wondering what this summer might hold. But before he can even settle into the experience, an unexpected connection begins to form—and then a familiar face from the past suddenly reappears.Now the summer is starting to feel a lot more complicated.What follows is a nostalgic trip back to those teenage years when a conversation could stay on your mind all day, one look could mean everything—or nothing—and you were often trying to understand your feelings while you were still in the middle of them.From the long bus ride to camp to late-night conversations, unexpected encounters, awkward moments, and emotions Bryan definitely wasn't prepared for, this episode captures what it feels like when life doesn't follow the story you've already written in your head.And somewhere along the way, Bryan finds himself facing a question he never expected to have to answer: What happens when the person you've been thinking about finally appears... but something else has already begun?There are some moments we could tell you about here—but that would ruin the story.So you'll have to listen.Act Two of When I Thought She Was the One is a funny, vulnerable, faith-centered coming-of-age story about first crushes, unexpected connections, confusing timing, and learning that what we think we want isn't always as simple once it's standing right in front of us.

Send us Fan MailWhat happens when the ideas behind Unfolded are shared with a room full of high school seniors?In this episode, Dr. Linda and Brian Schubring reflect on a recent opportunity to work with students in Minneapolis and explore how concepts such as dreams, mountain-and-valley folds, personal growth, and self-awareness resonated with a younger generation.Along the way, they discovered that many of the challenges, hopes, and questions students face are not so different from those adults continue to wrestle with throughout their lives.

Ze fietste altijd alsof ze tien minuten te laat was. Op vakantie kon ze niet stilzitten. Van doel naar doel en als ze er was, legde ze de lat al weer verder. Van buiten zag het er gedreven uit. Van binnen stond ze nooit stil.Wat niemand zag: thuis was het onvoorspelbaar. Een vader met een manisch depressieve stoornis. En een kind dat leerde: voel niet, pas je aan, ga door.In deze aflevering van The Essence Unfolded deelt ze openhartig hoe die overlevingsstrategie haar jarenlang heeft aangestuurd en hoe ze via Brain Balance ontdekte waar al die onrust vandaan kwam. Vandaag werkt ze zelf als Brain Balance coach en ademcoach.Wat je hoort in dit gesprek: hoe een onveilige thuissituatie je zenuwstelsel vormt, waarom altijd doorgaan een beschermingsmechanisme is en geen karakter, hoe haar lichaam op jonge leeftijd al signalen gaf, wat er verandert als je stopt met buiten jezelf zoeken, en hoe ademwerk het lichaam opent waar woorden tekortschieten.Dit is een gesprek voor iedereen die gedreven is, maar diep van binnen weet dat er iets anders in hen zit.
Hij groeide op in een vleesgrossistenfamilie van de derde generatie, een harde mannenwereld waarin emoties er niet toe deden. Hij voelde dertig jaar lang nauwelijks iets. Tot hij besefte dat hij zijn kinderen iets aan het doorgeven was wat hij zelf nooit had gekregen.In deze aflevering van The Essence Unfolded deelt hij openhartig hoe hij via beide retreats bij Brain Balance zijn gevoelssysteem heropende. Over de vader die hij wilde zijn voor zijn drie kinderen. Over de ondernemer die hij werd nadat hij zichzelf leerde kennen. En over waarom hij dit werk niet alleen voor zichzelf deed, maar voor alle generaties na hem.Wat je hoort in dit gesprek: hoe een kind zijn gevoelens afzet om te overleven en wat dat dertig jaar later doet, wat er verandert als je als man leert kwetsbaar te zijn, hoe zijn kinderen veranderden op het moment dat hij voor zichzelf koos, hoe persoonlijke groei zijn bedrijf en zijn manier van ondernemen veranderde, en wat hij alle mannen mee wil geven over investeren in jezelf.Dit is een gesprek voor iedereen die hard werkt aan zijn bedrijf, maar eigenlijk wat harder mag werken aan zichzelf.

The event that sparked the racist riots in Belfast on Tuesday evening happened on Monday night in the north of the city. A Sudanese man, named in court as Hadi Alodid, is alleged to have brutally assaulted Stephen Ogilvie in a street knife attack that was filmed by a bystander. Ogilvie lost an eye and is in hospital with other serious injuries. The 30-year-old Alodid has now been charged with knife crimes and attempted murder and is remanded in custody for four weeks. So how extensive was the damage in the city? What role did anti-immigrant agitators, including from outside Ireland, play in the riots? What has been the official response? And is the city set for more nights of rioting? Irish Times audio producer Andrew McNair lives in Belfast and saw first-hand the damage caused by the rioters. Presented by Bernice Harrison. Produced by Suzanne Brennan, with research by Ellen Clusker. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

The CBSE has been facing flak for its re-evaluation process for Class 12 Board exams this year. Parents and students have complained of a dysfunctional website, blurred answer sheets, and missing pages. At the heart of the controversy is the newly introduced On-Screen Marking (OSM), with thousands of complaints of unfair evaluation and faulty marking. The education minister has announced that the CBSE will engage IIT experts to address the technical challenges. But are technical glitches the only problem? We get to the bottom of the controversy in this episode, and joining us today are two special guests – a CBSE evaluator, and a parent. Guests: Kavita Sharma (name changed), is a teacher in a government CBSE school who worked as an evaluator this year using On-Screen marking. On Kavita's request, to protect her identity, we have not used her real name or her video in this episode. Mohit Tomar, parent of a Class 12 student, has spent much of last week trying to get his son's exam papers re-evaluated. Host: G.

On September 2, 31 BC, the Battle of Actium unfolded as a desperate breakout attempt by Antony and Cleopatra to save their treasury. They waited for the afternoon winds to turn so they could unfurl their sails—an unusual tactic for warships in battle. During the engagement, Cleopatra's squadron, distinguished by purple sails, broke through a gap in the Roman line. In a move that devastated his military honor, Antony abandoned his fleet and army to follow her. Straussnotes that while Antony's sailors continued to fight bravely, Octavian's forces eventually used fire arrows to destroy the remaining galleys. This abandonment of his men was a "major no-no" that permanently scarred Antony's reputation as a Roman leader. Despite the betrayal, the lovers successfully escaped with the Egyptian gold, though Octavian remained the undisputed victor on the sea, effectively ending the military resistance of the Second Triumvirate.

Send a textStrategy isn't just about plans and execution. In this episode, we explore a deeper framework for executive leadership — one rooted in presence, growth, and resources.In high-pressure environments filled with distraction and complexity, leaders are often pulled in multiple directions. Instead of reacting faster, what if executive strategy began with slowing down long enough to see clearly?We discuss:Why presence is the foundation of executive leadershipHow distraction impacts decision-making and team cultureThe difference between performance improvement and true leadership growthWhy awareness, compassion, and curiosity are essential for executive formationHow to redefine “resources” beyond money, time, and headcountMoving from a scarcity mindset to recognizing abundanceWhat it means for a leader to become a resource for others“Leadership begins with presence, the ability to see clearly where we are and what is real.”“There is an abundance of resources to solve our problems and ways to pursue our challenges.”This conversation offers practical insight for executive leaders navigating pressure, change, and organizational complexity — and invites you to rethink strategy from the inside out.ReflectionWhich area needs your attention right now: Presence?

Airwaves Unfolded is a piece based on a radio recording produced in the 1960s in Tarija, southern Bolivia, by Radio Universidad de Tarija. The program introduces Indigenous instruments and discusses how they have been intertwined with labour, daily life, and ritual, as well as how new instruments and musical forms developed after Spanish influence.What drew me to this recording were the instruments' unstable yet resonant tones alongside the narrator's voice. The voice carries a sense of responsibility, warmth, and quiet pride, reflecting an intention to preserve cultural knowledge and pass it on to future generations. Although the broadcast was created for its own present moment, it now reaches us as a fragment of cultural memory. I approached the recording not as a fixed historical document, but as material whose meaning can continue to shift over time.In the process of making the piece, I extracted short fragments of narration and placed them alongside the instrumental sounds to explore new relationships between them. Heavy processing was avoided, with an emphasis on preserving the instruments' resonance, pitch fluctuations, and texture as they appear in the original recording.The piano serves as a primary, foregrounded presence throughout the piece, while its recording captures the room's resonance and ambient qualities as a field-recorded sound. The piano is played using scales and harmonies chosen to closely complement the original sounds, acting as a quiet foundation for the piece. The original radio programme fragments are placed within this piano texture, allowing the voices of the past and the present performance to intertwine gently.During the production process, I also researched the instruments featured in the programme and their historical and social contexts. While engaging with a field recording from a culture different from my own, I continued to reflect on what I am actually hearing and what I may be imagining. Airwaves Unfolded takes shape as a space in which voices from the past gently touch the present.Bolivian radio programme on folk music reimagined by Masako Yokouchi (Sonotant).———Part of the project A Century of Sounds, reimagining 100 sounds covering 100 years from the collections of the Pitt Rivers Museum at the University of Oxford.

Historic scenes in Sandringham, as Andrew Mountbatten Windsor is arrested on suspicion of misconduct in public office. Our royal experts talk through what we know, and what this means for the royal family.Plain-clothed police officers were seen arriving at the royal property, before Thames Valley Police confirmed the news of an arrest.Shortly afterwards, King Charles III released an unprecedented statement expressing his 'deepest concern' over the news of his brother's arrest. The monarch added that “nobody is above the law”. It comes just weeks after more than 3 million files relating to Jeffrey Epstein were released by the US Department of Justice.So what next for the royal family? What exactly is going on behind palace doors? And should the royal family have acted earlier?
Send a textWhat if better leadership starts not with having the right answer—but with how you respond in the moment?In this episode of The Leadership Vision Podcast, Nathan Freeburg is joined by Laura Johnson to explore the power of “Yes, and,” a principle borrowed from improvisation that helps leaders build trust, maintain momentum, and strengthen team culture.Drawing on Laura's background in improvisation, live-event hosting, and business leadership, this conversation unpacks how acknowledgment, presence, and small language shifts can dramatically improve collaboration—especially in fast-moving or virtual teams.If you lead people, serve on committees, or collaborate across teams, this episode offers practical ideas you can start using immediately.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeWhy “Yes, and” is about acknowledgment—not agreementHow leaders unintentionally shut down momentumThe connection between “Yes, and” and psychological safetyHow to say no without breaking trustSimple ways to practice presence in everyday leadership momentsAbout the GuestLaura Johnson is a new member of the Leadership Vision team, helping bring clarity and alignment to complex, fast-moving work.

What happens when someone hits absolute rock bottom… and then God interrupts the story?Pastor and spiritual coach Brian Hall joins Billy Hallowell and Jen Lilley to share an unbelievable testimony: addiction, bankruptcy, cancer, overdose, a heart attack — and the night he says he snorted 21 lines of cocaine, cried out to God, and instantly sobered up in a moment he calls his first miracle.From there, the journey only gets wilder: Brian says he went from brand-new believer to ministry almost overnight, later leading a major nonprofit and church… until a dream from God told him to walk away. After resisting, he describes a series of jaw-dropping wake-up calls.Today, Brian says God has him ministering to high-profile leaders, celebrities, athletes, and powerful decision-makers — and he opens up about what he's witnessed behind the scenes: despair, spiritual warfare, and the hunger for something real.This episode is raw, intense, hope-filled — and a reminder that Jesus still changes lives.** Your front-row seat to the #miraculous and mysterious continues in our newsletter.

THE COUP ATTEMPT AND SURRENDER Colleague Evan Thomas. As the US prepared a third atomic bomb to drop on Tokyo, a military coup unfolded in the Japanese palace to prevent the surrender. Young officers attempted to seize the recording of the Emperor's surrender speech, but the coup was suppressed, and War Minister Anami committed suicide by seppuku. When the Emperor's broadcast finally aired, the depth of the Japanese "national psychosis" was revealed; even radiation victims in Hiroshima wept in despair, not because the war was over, but because their nation had surrendered.
