What happens when your body, the very thing you've spent nearly two decades teaching others to harmonize with, begins to fail you in a way you never saw coming? This week on the show, I'm sitting down with meditation teacher, and author Megan Monahan. Megan first appeared on Hurdle back in 2019, and today she returns to share a profoundly personal update. In late 2024, Megan faced a life-altering health hurdle: a diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis (MS). Megan takes us inside the raw moments of her diagnosis—from the sudden loss of vision in her right eye to an eight-hour wait in an UCLA emergency room. We discuss the power of the "meditation muscles" she built over 16 years and how they allowed her to meet this challenge with resilience instead of a victim mindset. In this episode, we discuss: The sudden symptoms and 36-hour journey to an MS diagnosis. How a decade of spiritual practice reframed a "devastating" diagnosis into a "resurgence of purpose". The 4-7-8 breathwork framework and somatic shaking for navigating high-stress moments. Unmasking personality traits that are actually trauma responses. What it truly means to be authentic and "come home to yourself". Lessons learned from spiritual giants like Deepak Chopra and Wayne Dyer. QUOTABLE MOMENTS "You get to choose how a life-changing moment changes you. We all have the ability to author our story in whatever way we want." "There is a part of you that can't be diagnosed with MS, that can't be broken up with, that can't be broke, that can't be relocated. That is who you are." "We mistake the need to enjoy the experience or the process with finding value in it." "You are not your thoughts. You don't have to believe every thought you have."

Murph sits down with anti-human trafficking investigator Chad Meli. Chad walks us through a harrowing investigation involving a father who exploited his own daughters for profit, using social media and online platforms to traffic abuse across borders. What followed was a complex, high-risk operation requiring undercover work, cutting-edge technology, and unprecedented collaboration between NGOs and law enforcement agencies worldwide. This is a heroic fight to protect the most vulnerable. January is Human Trafficking Awareness month.

Are you assuming your expertise should sell itself?   Many consultants feel this way, and this episode will challenge this belief in an important way.   This week on the Sales Maven Show, Nikki Rausch breaks down consultant culture and how this deeply ingrained mindset quietly sabotages a consultant's ability to earn business. There is a critical difference between being good at what you do and being chosen. When consultants enter sales conversations believing their work should speak for itself, sales often become inconsistent, draining, and frustrating. This episode brings awareness to this pattern and clearly explains what to do instead.   Consultant culture often shows up as thoughts like "If I explain it clearly enough, they'll get it," or "I'm not a salesperson, I'm an educator." While these beliefs may feel aligned with integrity, they are not effective for closing business. Buyers are not hiring based on how much someone knows. They hire when they have clarity about the results they'll receive and confidence that the consultant can guide them there. When sales conversations turn into overexplaining, overeducating, or giving away the solution too early, the balance of power shifts. Instead of positioning themselves as the solution, consultants end up trying to prove their worth, which makes it harder for a buyer to say yes.   In this episode, Nikki walks through the most common self-sabotaging behaviors she sees in consultant culture. These include outlining the full solution before someone has hired you, positioning yourself as just one option instead of the solution, and avoiding the close altogether. Not asking for the business doesn't come across as polite. It creates confusion. When there is no clear close, buyers are left to fill in the blanks, leading to hesitation, ghosting, and stalled conversations. Closing is not about pressure. It is about clarity and making it easier for someone to decide what comes next.   The episode also explores why having a discovery framework is essential. A framework is not a script. It is a structure that allows consultants to lead the conversation, ask strategic questions, uncover what truly matters to the buyer, and present an offer with authority and confidence. Without this structure, sales conversations drift. Consultants find themselves hoping rather than knowing and waiting rather than leading. Hoping is not a sales strategy.   For consultants who feel they are doing everything right but still aren't being chosen, this episode offers a powerful shift in perspective. Expertise absolutely matters, and it matters most after someone hires you. When consultants move out of consultant culture and into intentional, strategic sales conversations, income becomes more consistent, conversations feel easier, and the dynamic shifts from performing for approval to confidently leading the process.

When Tobias Forge was a kid growing up in Sweden, he had no intention of having the biggest album in the world. But this year, his band Ghost hit No. 1 for the very first time. For many years, the identities of Ghost's band members were a total mystery. There were even rumours that musicians like Dave Grohl played in the band. But as Ghost got more popular, staying anonymous got more difficult. Tobias joins Tom Power to talk about their chart-topping success and what the hardest part of being anonymous in a famous band was.

Growing up with labels like "too emotional," "overreacting," or "ice queen," and now struggling to understand what you actually feel as an autistic or AuDHD adult? This episode of Adulting With Autism dives into emotion regulation for autistic adults with Jenn Veilleux, clinical psychologist, professor, and author of Open to Emotion, who blends her theater background with science to support authentic emotional expression. Jenn shares her own journey from being called "too emotional" to seeing emotional intensity as a form of being a "super-taster" of feelings. She talks about the difference between awareness and attention—how you can notice emotions without getting completely swept away—and offers metaphors like watching emotions move through like wind instead of something you have to hold onto forever. You will hear practical tools for: Unmasking your emotions after years of pushing them down or performing what others expect Using body signals (interoception) as early warning signs so you can regulate sooner Sitting with emotions long enough to understand them without drowning in them Challenging myths about ADHD and "overreacting" so you can embrace your full range This episode is especially helpful if you: Struggle to identify what you feel until you are already overwhelmed Have been told your emotions are "too much" or "not enough" your whole life Want language and tools to unmask emotionally at a pace that feels safe If this conversation supports you, follow/subscribe to Adulting With Autism on YouTube, Apple, or Spotify and leave a 5-star review so more neurodivergent adults can find it.

Welcome back to When Words Fail, Music Speaks, the podcast where host James Cox explores how melody and rhythm become lifelines for those battling depression and anxiety. In today's episode, James sits down with Kyle Thomas—the raw‑voiced frontman of New Orleans thrash legends ExHorder!!Together they journey from the gritty beginnings of the band in the mid‑80s through four pivotal albums, unpacking the evolution of Kyle's lyrics—from teenage outrage at organized religion to today's more nuanced, honest storytelling. A rapid‑fire “lightning round” reveals Kyle's unexpected love for Depeche Mode and Duran Duran, his philosophy that metal should stay fun rather than take itself too seriously, and the crucial lesson that technical fireworks mean nothing without genuine connection.Listeners also get a behind‑the‑scenes glimpse of Pat O'Brien's (Ex Cannibal Corpse) comeback with Exploder, the band's shift toward streamlined songwriting, and Kyle's personal ritual of turning pain into cathartic verses. As the conversation winds down, Kyle shares the one album that still pulls at his soul—Black Sabbath's debut—reminding us that even the darkest riffs can hold a timeless, soul‑shaking resonance.Tune in for an honest, high‑energy deep‑dive into how heavy music can both weaponize aggression and heal the heart, proving once again that when words fall short, the music always finds a way to speak.

George Metesky's campaign of terror as ‘the Mad Bomber of New York' ended abruptly on 22nd January, 1957. Between 1940 and 1956, he had planted at least 32 bombs in public places, including theatres, railway stations, libraries, and landmarks such as Grand Central Terminal.  Police arrived just before midnight at his modest home in Waterbury, Connecticut, which he shared with his two sisters, and asked him for a handwriting sample. A search of his garage revealed bomb components matching those used in attacks across the city, along with a partially-assembled device larger than any found before. His arrest brought relief to a city that had lived with an intermittent but persistent threat for over a generation. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly explain Metesky's long-simmering grievance against his former employer, the Consolidated Edison Company; discover how the  breakthrough in the case came only when police consulted psychiatrist James Brussel; and reveal how Metesky underwent a surprising recovery in institutional care…  Further Reading: • ‘Unmasking the Mad Bomber' (Smithsonian, 2017): https://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/unmasking-the-mad-bomber-180962469/ • ‘Decades before Cesar Sayoc, Mad Bomber George Metesky terrorized New York City' (The Washington Post, 2018): https://www.washingtonpost.com/history/2018/10/27/unhinged-unrelenting-mad-bomber-who-terrorized-new-york/ • ‘How New York's First Terrorist Led to the Birth of Criminal Profiling' (The New Yorker, 2018): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xdLNbsoPD5c #NewYork #Crime #50s #Strange Love the show?

Not all eating disorder behaviors feel distressing. For many neurodivergent people, certain eating patterns can feel calming, organizing, or regulating rather than intrusive or unwanted. This solo episode explores the often misunderstood difference between egosyntonic and egodystonic eating disorder behaviors, with a specific focus on neurodivergent experiences. Dr. Marianne Miller breaks down why distress is not a reliable indicator of risk, how soothing routines can still create long-term concerns, and how clinicians and individuals can assess eating behaviors without pathologizing neurodivergence. This conversation centers nuance, consent, and nervous system safety rather than urgency or moral judgment. What Does Egosyntonic vs Egodystonic Mean in Eating Disorders? Egodystonic eating disorder behaviors feel unwanted and distressing. They often clash with a person's values or sense of self and can feel out of control. Egosyntonic behaviors, on the other hand, feel aligned with the self. They may feel logical, helpful, or necessary, even when others express concern. This episode explains why egosyntonic does not mean harmless and why egodystonic does not automatically mean more severe. These terms describe internal experience, not medical or nutritional risk. Neurodivergence, Regulation, and Eating Disorder Behaviors Neurodivergent nervous systems often rely on structure, predictability, and repetition for regulation. Food routines, sameness, timing, or tracking can reduce sensory overload and cognitive demand. What feels regulating internally may look concerning externally. Dr. Marianne explores how clinicians and loved ones often misread neurodivergent regulation as pathology, or dismiss concern when distress is absent. This section highlights why both reactions miss the full picture. Why Distress Is Not a Reliable Marker of Risk Many eating disorder assessments rely too heavily on visible distress. This episode explains why distress can fluctuate and why the absence of distress does not equal safety. Neurodivergent people may feel calm and regulated even as food variety narrows, rigidity increases, or nourishment decreases. The episode emphasizes the importance of looking beyond how a behavior feels in the moment and instead examining how it shapes health, flexibility, and daily life over time. Where Is the Line Between Regulation and Harm? This episode directly addresses the question many people ask but rarely get answered clearly. The line is not about whether a behavior feels soothing. It is not about motivation or readiness for change. It is about what the behavior requires and what it takes away over time. Dr. Marianne outlines how to evaluate eating behaviors through function, sustainability, and long-term consequences without shaming, coercion, or urgency. A Neurodivergent-Affirming Approach to Care This conversation is not about taking away coping strategies or forcing change. Removing regulation without replacement can destabilize neurodivergent people and increase risk. Instead, this episode discusses how to preserve safety while reducing long-term harm through added supports, sensory accommodations, and gradual expansion. The focus stays on consent, autonomy, and respect for identity. Who This Episode Is For This episode is for neurodivergent teens and adults who feel confused when eating behaviors feel helpful but raise concern from others. It is also for clinicians who want to assess eating disorders without relying solely on distress or external appearance. If you have ever thought, this does not feel like a problem to me, but other people seem worried, this episode speaks directly to that experience.

My guest today is Guryan Tighe.Guryan is an experienced leadership coach, workshop facilitator, and communications strategist whose clients describe her as a “Fear Technician”. She founded her company, FOURAGE, on the belief that understanding and working with our fears, rather than trying to conquer them, yields more professional success and personal fulfillment. In her book, Unmasking Fear: How Fears are our Gateways to Freedom, Guryan  reframes the way we approach fear from the goal of conquering it to a goal of learning from it by providing readers three gateways to look at fear in a way that frees us: curiosity, gratitude, and purpose. She shows us how to interrupt our initial reaction, pause, check in with ourselves, and rewrite the patterns we use to respond to that which we fear. With this shift in thinking and how to engage it, readers will find new pathways forward as they shift from unintentional reactions to intentional responses.When we change our relationship to fear, we gain valuable insights that inform our growth and development, connecting us more deeply to our truth. This different approach to fear doesn't just transform our relationship with ourselves but can also unite us with others through empathy and shared purpose. What has the power to separate us from ourselves and each other—fear—also has the power to unite us. Unmasking Fear shows us that fear is courage unrealized and understanding our fears frees us to pursue the life we want.Learn more about Guryan and her work: https://fourage.io/Unmasking Fear, the book: https://fourage.io/unmasking-fearSupport the showMake Life Less Difficult~ Support:buymeacoffee.com/lisatilstra

Narcissism is a word we hear often—but few truly understand what it looks like, how it operates, or the damage it leaves behind. In this episode, I'm joined by Kenza Haddock, author of Unmasking Narcissism, to have an honest and much-needed conversation about narcissistic behavior, emotional manipulation, and spiritual confusion that often accompanies these relationships. We talk about how narcissism hides behind charm, victimhood, and even religious language; how to recognize red flags without becoming cynical; and why biblical love does not require enduring abuse or abandoning wisdom. Kenza shares insight into setting healthy boundaries, reclaiming clarity after gaslighting, and pursuing healing without shame. If you've ever felt confused, drained, or spiritually stuck in a relationship—and wondered whether you were being "unloving" for questioning it—this conversation will bring clarity, validation, and hope rooted in truth.

In the final Q&A of 2025, Eric is joined by ADHD reWired coach Brian for a candid, intimate conversation about ADHD, AuDHD, burnout recovery, unmasking, grief, and what it looks like to rebuild momentum without torching your nervous system in the process. They answer listener questions ranging from "what I wish I knew before my autism diagnosis" to "what burnout actually looks like," and they zoom out to something simple but powerful: community and accountability aren't "nice extras," they're often the difference between knowing what helps and actually doing it. Also: a listener puts Eric in the hot seat about getting back to pickleball… and it turns into real-time accountability, immediate action, and a follow-up update that he's now going 3–4 times a week. In this episode, we cover Personal updates: burnout recovery, nervous system capacity, and Eric's autism diagnosis Why AuDHD can increase burnout risk (and why recovery can take longer than you expect) Brian's reflections on exploring autism and recognizing long-term burnout patterns Unmasking: what it really means (beyond "coming out") and how it impacts relationships The balance between honoring your needs while still caring about impact on others Grief and burnout: how loss affects the nervous system, energy, and expectations What burnout looks like in real life: apathy, feeling rudderless, skill regression, and "my usual motivators aren't working" Eric's working theme for the year: attunement (listening to self, body, and capacity) Favorite AI tools right now: thinking partner, planning support, and everyday practical use Autism assessment options in Chicago (including what worked for Eric) A playful-but-serious accountability moment that leads to real behavior change Listener Q&A highlights What are your favorite AI tools right now? Eric and Brian share how they're using ChatGPT in everyday life and personal/professional planning, including using AI to organize thoughts, support self-reflection, help with decisions, and even analyze photos for practical problem-solving. What do you wish you'd known before being diagnosed autistic? Eric talks about high-masking autism, and how repeated success can quietly raise internal expectations year after year… until the nervous system taps out. How has grief impacted your nervous system and burnout? Eric reflects on losing his dad (and grandmother), how grief shows up unexpectedly, and choosing to let grief be grief rather than trying to "bounce back" on a schedule. What does burnout look like for you? Eric describes burnout as apathy, feeling rudderless, needing far more recovery time, anxiety no longer activating last-minute productivity, and struggling to do even the helpful things (like exercise/pickleball). What's the smallest step I can take to get back into pickleball? A listener challenges Eric to take one tiny step… and it becomes immediate action, membership sign-up, and later consistency.

For AuDHD folks especially, the cycle of "I feel better → I go full throttle → I crash again" can repeat fast. This episode is a reminder that community and accountability aren't just support… they're infrastructure. Next live Q&A March 10 at 12:30 PM Central

Earlier this week, a Denver City Council committee discussed a potential proposal to ban law enforcement, including ICE agents, from wearing face coverings during arrest or deportation operations. If such legislation did pass, how would it be enforced? Then, hundreds of people showed up to a town hall meeting in December to protest the city's use of Flock cameras — the contract with the tech surveillance company ends in March, so where does Denver stand? Host Bree Davies sits down with council member at-large Sarah Parady to dig into these topics, plus discuss her thoughts on TABOR, childcare funding challenges, jail sentences, and why she voted against using $50 million of Denver's money to buy the land for the future National Women's Soccer League stadium.

Feeling masked-out, sensory-flooded, or side-eyeing all things “spiritual” as an autistic, AuDHD, or ADHD adult? In this episode of Adulting With Autism, Ashmita Arora—teacher and founder of The Intuitive Practice and Eva & Isla®—shares a grounded take on spiritual awakening for autistic adults that does not bypass mental health, trauma, or lived experience.​ We talk about how health crises and a Kundalini “pop” pushed Ashmita to see energy as another language for understanding patterns, burnout, and shutdowns. She explains why sensitivity is not a flaw but information your nervous system is giving you, and how logic and intuition can work together instead of fighting each other.​ You will hear simple, realistic practices for: A 1-minute breathing reset to tell your body “I'm safe” during overwhelm. “Space floating” and gentle movement for peace when everything feels too loud. Channeling meltdown energy into low-pressure creativity (like doodling, swimming, or writing) to find clarity afterward.​ For ADHD and AuDHD sensory overwhelm, Ashmita normalizes non-linear growth—why your path will never look like a straight line—and offers small daily rituals to support nervous system regulation, unmasking, and self-trust. This is spiritual support for autistic adults that respects boundaries, pacing, and consent.​ If you are craving tools for spiritual awakening as an autistic adult and want help managing energy, intuition, and everyday life, this conversation is for you. Listen now for practical, compassionate ideas you can test and keep—or throw away if they do not fit your brain.

Ayodele shares how BMEsTalk is building a leadership ecosystem rooted in brotherhood, wellness, and nonjudgmental connection, because too many men are expected to “hold it down” while quietly running on empty.In this episode, they cover:The mask of the leader: extroversion on the outside, overthinking and introversion on the insideWhy Black men are conditioned to tie worth to usefulness, output, and performance“You're worth the pause”: making the case for wellness when the ROI isn't immediateHow to start men's healing spaces without forcing vulnerability too fast (tables first, circle later)Why “safe” isn't always the right word—and what a brave space invites insteadWhite supremacy as a system designed to disconnect—and what it does to relationships and identityThe power & privilege wheel: understanding marginalization and proximity to powerHow Black male privilege shows up (and why naming it can change how we show up for Black women)The “Dear Black Man” grounding practice that opens every BMEsTalk engagement(0:00) Welcome + Ashanti's self-doubt moment (even saying the guest's name)(0:35) Ayodele's story: Seattle roots, Howard alum, engineering → education(1:27) What BMEsTalk is building: brotherhood, wellness, leadership ecosystem(15:16) Public vs. private schooling—and how certain environments can stunt growth(17:03) Ayodele's “back of the mask”: creative, faith, introversion + expectations to lead(23:01) The performance trap: “being human is not enough” + the pressure to earn love(25:07) The “Dear Black Man” letter + pausing to reset expectations in the room(31:27) “You're worth the pause”: why men struggle to believe wellness has ROI(41:36) Designing for men's nervous systems: why circles can be too much too soon(44:15) When wellness gets weaponized: going “deep” without time to close the box(51:56) Wielding privilege to protect, provide, and stand with Black women(53:43) Why this needs a Part 2 (and what young men need from these conversations)(54:20) Where to find Ayodele + BMEsTalk(55:05) The Affirmation Crown: building something wearable that speaks life into you(55:35) Share your mask anonymously + invite a friend into the reflectionConnect with Ayodele HarrisonAyodele on LinkedIn (search: “Ayodele Harrison”)BMEsTalk (Black Male Educators Talk): national convener building leadership, culture, and community for Black educators.Affirmation Crown (hands-on reflection experience).Resources & Ways to EngageThe Million Mask Movement – Create a mask anonymously: https://millionmask.orgEducator Portal – Bring mask-making and emotional data into your schoolGlobal Young Men's Conference – Youth voice, belonging, and healing spacesEver Forward Club – Brotherhood, connection, and mentorshipConnect with Ashanti BranchInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/branchspeaks/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BranchSpeaksTwitter/X: https://twitter.com/BranchSpeaksLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ashantibranch/Website: https://www.branchspeaks.com/Connect with Ever Forward Club:Instagram:⁠ https://www.instagram.com/everforwardclub⁠Facebook:⁠ https://www.facebook.com/everforwardclub⁠Twitter:⁠ https://twitter.com/everforwardclub⁠LinkedIn:⁠ https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-ever-forward-club/⁠Support the Podcast & Ever Forward Clubhttps://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/branch-speaks/support#unmaskingwithmaleeducators #millionmaskmovement #takingoffthemask #totm #BlackMaleEducators #BMEsTalk #BlackMenHealing #BraveSpaces #EmotionalWellness #SchoolLeadership #SEL

Headline: They don't scream. They don't brag. They just slowly break you down.Most people think they know what a narcissist looks like—someone loud, arrogant, and demanding the spotlight. But as a diagnosed self-aware narcissist, I'm here to tell you that the most dangerous ones are the ones you never see coming.In this Remix episode, we are diving deep into the "Quiet Narcissist." We explore why this type is so effective at keeping you trapped for years, often without you even realizing you're being manipulated. Instead of grandiose displays of power, the quiet narcissist uses silence, "victimhood," and passive-aggressive behavior to maintain total control. If you've ever felt like you were "losing your mind" in a relationship but couldn't point to any "big" blowups, this episode is for you.In this episode, we break down:The "Nice Guy/Girl" Mask: Why their outward humility is their greatest weapon.Passive-Aggressive Warfare: How they use "the cold shoulder" and subtle digs to punish you.The Professional Victim: Why they always make themselves the "underdog" to keep you in a "fixer" role.The Subtle Discard: How they withdraw affection to make you work harder for their approval.The Path to Clarity: How to stop doubting your reality and see the patterns for what they truly are.Stop looking for the "loud" red flags and start paying attention to the silence.Connect with Lee:My Courses: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://courses.mentalhealness.net⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Healing Support Group: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://mentalhealness.thinkific.com/products/communities/thementalhealers⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠1-on-1 Coaching Calls: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://mentalhealness1on1perspective.as.me/schedule/ec588030⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow on Instagram/TikTok: @mentalhealnesss

In this episode of IsraelCast, host Steven Shalowitz sits down with acclaimed author and historian Uri Kaufman to unpack the ideas behind his powerful new book, American Intifada: Israel, the Gaza War and the New Antisemitism. Kaufman, whose previous work on the Yom Kippur War was named one of the Financial Times' best history books of the year, offers a sharp and thought-provoking analysis of why so much mainstream discourse about Israel has become detached from historical fact.

He will come on the scene as a man of peace—charismatic, powerful, and promising hope to a broken world. But halfway through the Tribulation, his mask will come off, and the world will see the truth. In this message from Matthew 24, Pastor Jeff reveals what Jesus meant by “the abomination of desolation” and how the Antichrist will rise, deceive, and ultimately demand the worship that belongs only to God. Discover how to recognize Satan's lies and stand firm in the truth that Christ alone reigns forever.

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 once again: Satanic ritual abuse, mind control, Stargate Project, Freemason, Jesuit, and organized abuse survivor, overcomer and whistleblower, loving mother, founder, content creator, faithful servant to the most high, gardener, floral design extraordinaire, singer and songwriter, poet, poetry reader, creative writer, and someone I'm so grateful to call my friend: KadayaIn case you missed either of Kadaya's incredible episodes she did here on this show, here is a brief synopsis of her testimony as well as some things we will be talking about today: From the tenderest years of childhood, Kadaya faced unimaginable darkness - trauma-based mind control rooted in MONARCH programming, involving things like electroshock, near-drowning, and ritualistic horrors designed to fracture the soul and form dissociative identities. Whisked away to Masonic lodges, churches, the Vatican, and secret spaces for advanced Stargate conditioning, her extraordinary intelligence and spiritual gifts were weaponized by shadowy forces - Freemasons, Jesuits, and elite bloodlines - for sinister purposes. Outwardly, her life appeared as a picture-perfect childhood, but beneath the veil, her fragmented parts endured unspeakable torment, often cloaked as covert operations.Armed with this sacred strength, she boldly confronted her handlers and perpetrators, shattering the invisible chains that bound her mind and soul. Freedom came at a staggering price - betrayal from family, friends, and even her husband, who obtained a protection order, stripping her of her children, home, and stability. Enduring relentless gang-stalking and targeting, she found sanctuary with Restoration in Christ Ministries, where deprogramming and memory integration became pathways to wholeness. Though a flawed system separated her from her beloved children, Kadaya's unquenchable fire burns brighter: she battles tirelessly for their liberation and shines a bright light on hidden systemic evils.In recent episodes, we've journeyed deeply into Kadaya's powerful testimony - from the depths of programming and rituals, signs and symbols hidden in plain sight, through family trials and breakthrough freedom, to profound healing and beyond.  On today's episode, Kadaya will be revealing and unveiling even more occulted knowledge and personal testimony through disclosure including personal updates on her life, being used as a remote womb, about neuro-linguistic programming, triggers in the news, Presidential rememberings, the black awakening, uniting survivors out of isolation, reuniting with ghosts from her past, more visuals and graphics that will be shown on screen, and even some poetry readings from Kadaya's incredible collection of poems that have been created and written through her healing process. You won't want to miss a moment of this episode. In typical Kadaya fashion, every moment will be gripping, eye-opening, inspiring, and informative all at once.

Send us a textWelcome to Rational Black Thought. I'm your host, Neo Griot—secular humanist, skeptic, atheist, Afrocentric, Pan-African… and morally allergic to propaganda.  This is a year-end audit episode. Not a highlight reel. Not a “best-of” montage. An audit. Because reflection is not nostalgia—it's strategy. It's how you stop repeating cycles that were designed to keep you tired, confused, and compliant.  So today we're doing three things:  We're going to look back at the major themes from the past year of Unmasking the News. We're going to forecast 2026—not with wishful thinking, but with pattern recognition.And for Bible Study with an Atheist, we're going to expose one of the slickest scams in modern religion: pseudo-science for God—and why “generic God” still doesn't get you to anybody's holy book. Intro: Quote of the Week: Octavia E. Butler Unmasking the News: Democracy Watch: Authoritarianism as a System, Not a Personality Religious Corruption: The Charity Gap and the Opacity Advantage Good News: Black Capacity Still WinsBible Study with an Atheist: Pseudo-Science for God — and Why “Generic God” Doesn't Get You to Religion: Reflections and Call to Action:Closing/Outro: Sources:https://commongood.cc/reader/a-few-rules-for-predicting-the-future-by-octavia-e-butler/?https://www.brennancenter.org/our-work/research-reports/trump-administrations-campaign-undermine-next-election?https://www.epi.org/publication/trumps-assault-on-independent-agencies-endangers-us-all/?https://faithcommunitiestoday.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/03/FACTs-on-Finance-Report_Trends-on-Congregational-Economics_Mar-2022.pdf?https://www.axios.com/local/indianapolis/2025/02/25/black-entrepreneurs-indianapolis-growth?Power Concedes Nothing without a Demand...

Show Starts at 30s mark.  In this episode the host opens with the podcast game "Word on Word," comparing Psalm 90:12 and 2 Corinthians 4:16 before moving into a wide-ranging, fast-paced examination of current events, media manipulation, and spiritual warfare. The show covers daily Proverbs as a recommended spiritual practice and then pivots to a detailed breakdown of a recent Truth Social post by former President Donald Trump — an image of a windmill with Hebrew text, a number 13 on the tower and a 09:11 timestamp — and why the host believes that image may carry layered symbolic meaning linking Israel, 9/11 imagery, and political signaling. The host analyzes global reactions and geopolitical tensions, including protests in Iran, the U.S. response to human-rights abuses, and shifting alliances among nations such as Russia, China, Israel, and Western democracies. He critiques contemporary censorship trends in the U.K. and elsewhere and explains how psychological operations are being tailored to different regions and audiences to foster large-scale social change. A large portion of the episode is dedicated to recent exposures inside conservative media and activist circles: the rise of citizen journalist Nick Shirley, scrutiny of Turning Point USA and key figures (including Erica Kirk and the late Charlie Kirk), and allegations about movement infiltration. The host explores links to influential networks — from alleged Rothstein/Rothschild connections to the political machinery of Americans for Prosperity and Tim Phillips — and discusses suspicious patterns, shell companies, and apparent PR playbooks used to shape narratives. Occult and fraternal symbolism are also examined: the host highlights Masonic language and visual cues at memorial events, suspicious bookshelf imagery behind media figures, and what he views as ritualized elements surrounding high-profile incidents. He warns listeners that these phenomena should be seen not only as political or social operations but as part of a broader spiritual campaign aimed at deceiving believers. Throughout the episode the host urges vigilance, prayer, and scriptural grounding as the response to deception. He announces a community prayer meeting on Saturday (8 PM EST via Telegram) and previews an upcoming Sunday Bible study on 1 Corinthians (the "love chapter"). Expect a blend of news analysis, religious reflection, conspiracy exposure, and practical spiritual exhortation aimed at helping listeners discern truth and remain faithful amid cultural upheaval.

Dr. Peter McCullough walks through what he's seeing clinically — patients years out from COVID or vaccination who are still dealing with clotting issues, neurologic symptoms, immune dysregulation, mast cell activation, and unexplained decline. Not rare cases. Everyday people. Many of them functional — until they weren't.We talk about why Long COVID isn't always a new condition, but often the thing that pushes underlying vulnerabilities into the open. Genetic predispositions. Autoimmune tendencies. Histamine intolerance. Microvascular injury. Things that were once quiet suddenly aren't.May shares her own experience from the patient side — navigating worsening symptoms, being told it was hormones, stress, or anxiety, and eventually realizing the timeline didn't lie. The labs didn't either.Dr. McCullough explains why antibody levels matter, why spike protein itself is rarely measured, and why chasing secondary diagnoses (Lyme, mold, EBV, heavy metals) often leads people in circles without addressing the root issue.This isn't a protocol episode.It's not reassurance.And it's not abstract.It's a direct conversation about ongoing biological injury, what's being missed, and why so many people feel like their bodies changed — and never fully came back.If you've felt stuck in that in-between space — not sick enough for answers, not well enough to live normally — this episode speaks to exactly that gap.Guest Bio: Dr. Peter McCulloughDr. Peter McCullough is a practicing cardiologist, internist, and clinical researcher with decades of experience in cardiovascular medicine and academic publishing. He has served on the faculties of multiple medical schools, contributed to hundreds of peer-reviewed publications, and has been deeply involved in clinical research, outcomes analysis, and patient care throughout his career.Since the COVID era began, Dr. McCullough has focused extensively on understanding post-infection and post-vaccination complications, including myocarditis, thrombosis, immune dysregulation, and Long COVID–related syndromes. He continues to treat patients clinically while examining emerging data on persistent spike protein, inflammatory injury, and recovery patterns that fall outside traditional medical frameworks.Known for his willingness to question prevailing narratives and follow the data where it leads, Dr. McCullough remains a polarizing but influential voice in ongoing discussions about public health, patient safety, and the long-term consequences of pandemic-era medical decisions.Join this important mission: www.mcculloughfnd.org GET SOCIAL WITH US!

What if the students who say they're “good” are the ones we need to check on the most?In this episode of unMASKing with Male Educators, Ashanti Branch pulls back the curtain on what young men are actually carrying beneath the surface, using real words, real data, and real stories from the Global Young Men's Conference and the Million Mask Movement.Drawing from over two decades of work with young men, Ashanti walks listeners through powerful mask reflections created by students across the Bay Area. These masks reveal a striking disconnect between what young men show the world, happy, funny, kind, and what they hide, sadness, anger, exhaustion, loneliness, fear. Through stories, statistics, and lived experience, Ashanti challenges educators, parents, and systems to stop mistaking compliance for wellness and silence for safety.This episode is both a wake-up call and an invitation: to slow down, ask better questions, create emotionally safer spaces, and truly mean it when we ask, “How are you doing?”Why “I'm good” is often a mask, not the truthWhat young men's masks reveal about loneliness, sadness, and emotional overloadThe dangerous gap between how students appear and how they actually feelWhy emotional safety is foundational to attendance, behavior, and academic successHow fear, violence, and instability shape students' ability to show up to schoolThe hidden emotional labor young men carry to protect others from worryingWhy humor, kindness, and being “the funny one” can be survival strategiesHow social media, isolation, and consumption culture deepen disconnectionWhat educators miss when curriculum matters more than connectionHow the Million Mask Movement helps schools get to the root, not just the symptomsWhy listening—not fixing—is often the most powerful interventionA call to parents, educators, and leaders to stop staying silentIn this episode, Ashanti explores:(0:00) Welcome to unMASKing with Male Educators(0:41) Why this conversation matters as we head into 2026(2:00) Data as words: listening to what young men aren't saying(5:04) Voices from the Global Young Men's Conference(6:28) Introducing the Million Mask reflections(12:00) Why students don't show up when they don't feel safe(15:12) Survival brains, fear, and school attendance(16:30) Front-of-mask data: happy, funny, kind(17:09) Back-of-mask data: sad, angry, tired, alone(19:34) What “happy” students are hiding(22:41) The emotional cost of never being asked twice(24:55) The funny kid: humor as armor(27:18) Social media, isolation, and identity fragmentation(30:47) Why words matter more than spreadsheets(33:15) Invitation to make a mask and bring this work to schools(35:33) Speaking truth to systems and school boards(38:00) A call to parents, educators, and advocates(40:00) Closing reflections and what's coming nextResources & Ways to EngageThe Million Mask Movement – Create a mask anonymously: https://millionmask.orgEducator Portal – Bring mask-making and emotional data into your schoolGlobal Young Men's Conference – Youth voice, belonging, and healing spacesEver Forward Club – Brotherhood, connection, and mentorshipConnect with Ashanti BranchInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/branchspeaks/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BranchSpeaksTwitter/X: https://twitter.com/BranchSpeaksLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ashantibranch/Website: https://www.branchspeaks.com/Support the Podcast & Ever Forward Clubhttps://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/branch-speaks/support#unmaskingwithmaleeducators #millionmaskmovement #takingoffthemask #emotionalSafety #SEL #youthvoice #schoolculture #mentalhealthineducation

Episode #1077 Ever find yourself messing things up just when they're starting to go well? You're not alone. A lot of high-performing men struggle with self sabotage, especially when life starts to feel steady. In this episode, Tim and Bruce dig into the reasons behind it, whether it's a deep-rooted self worth issue, a nervous system that craves chaos, or an old identity that just doesn't fit anymore. They explore how some men unconsciously create problems just to feel a sense of purpose or control. From procrastination and emotional withdrawal to overcommitting and burnout, the patterns are often the same. The good news is, once you see it, you can change it. You'll hear what actually works to break the cycle and how to stop bouncing between highs and lows in your personal and professional life. If you've ever told yourself "I know what to do, I just don't do it," this episode is for you. You'll walk away with a clearer understanding of where self sabotage really comes from and how to start shifting out of it. We also break down the role of unconscious identity and why traditional willpower won't solve the problem. The goal here isn't perfection. It's progress with intention.

papírdarabkát talált.En: While Ágnes tried to enjoy the magical night amidst the hustle and bustle of the ball, she suddenly found a piece of paper in her pocket.Hu: Az üzenet rövid volt, de sokatmondó: "Változás közeleg.En: The message was short but meaningful: "Change is coming.Hu: Készülj.En: Prepare."Hu: "Percekkel később Ágnes bátorságot merített, és László felé fordult.En: Minutes later, Ágnes gathered her courage and turned to László.Hu: "Táncoljunk?En: "Shall we dance?"Hu: " kérdezte váratlanul.En: she asked unexpectedly.Hu: László szemében meglepődés, majd öröm csillant.En: Surprise, then joy, sparkled in László's eyes.Hu: A zene ritmusára forogtak a bálteremben, a fények és mosolyok között.En: They spun in the ballroom to the rhythm of the music, among the lights and smiles.Hu: Amint az óra éjfélt ütött, a mennyezeten szikrázó tűzijáték nyílt meg, mintha új év ígérete csillant volna meg.En: As the clock struck midnight, a sparkling fireworks display opened on the ceiling, as if the promise of a new year had appeared.Hu: Ágnes és László, a maszkok mögött, többé nem rejtették el érzéseiket.En: Ágnes and László, behind their masks, no longer hid their feelings.Hu: Elmondták egymásnak álmaikat, félelmeiket és bátorságukat.En: They shared their dreams, fears, and courage with each other.Hu: "Melletted leszek," ígérte László, keze finoman Ágnesét fogva, "bármi is történjen.En: "I'll be by your side," promised László, gently holding Ágnes's hand, "no matter what happens."Hu: "Ágnes érezte, hogy súlya csökken, ahogy elfogadta László támogatását.En: Ágnes felt her burden lighten as she accepted László's support.Hu: Az újév első pillanataiban már nem nézett a jövőre félelemmel.En: In the first moments of the new year, she no longer looked at the future with fear.Hu: Ehelyett úgy döntött, hogy befogadja az önmaga és kapcsolatai által hozott változásokat.En: Instead, she decided to embrace the changes brought by herself and her relationships.Hu: A bálterem lassan elcsendesedett, de Ágnes szíve már más ütemre dobbant.En: The ballroom slowly quieted, but Ágnes's heart beat to a different rhythm.Hu: Az új élet hívása, a bátorság és szeretet felé.En: The call of a new life, toward courage and love.Hu: A múlt már csak árnyék volt, a jövő pedig fényes és tele lehetőségekkel.En: The past was just a shadow, and the future

TIANANMEN SQUARE AND THE UNMASKING OF THE COMMUNIST PROJECT Colleague Professor Sean McMeekin. The conversation begins with the 1989 Tiananmen Square massacre, framed not as an anomaly but as the definitive "unmasking" of the communist regime. While the protests initially gathered to mourn reformer Hu Yaobangand coincided with Gorbachev's visit, the subsequent violence revealed that political brutality, rather than popular sovereignty, is the essence of the communist project. Professor McMeekin argues that Tiananmen stripped away the pretense of the "consent of the governed," proving the regime relied entirely on raw force. The discussion traces the origins of this ideology to Karl Marx, a Prussian philosopher influenced by Hegel. McMeekin posits that Marx was primarily a "wordsmith" who viewed history as an abstract binary struggle between oppressors and the oppressed, treating communism as a philosophical "word game" rather than serious economic theory.

In this episode, we welcome Rebecca John, an investigative climate reporter at the Climate Investigation Center [https://climateinvestigations.org/] and the news outlet DeSmog. She has uncovered a series of alarming revelations about the oil industry's manipulation of public perception and climate science. We delve into the historical context of the oil and gas lobby, exploring how entities like the Western States Petroleum Association (WSPA) have influenced research and public opinion since the 1950s. From the origins of the Air Pollution Foundation to the ongoing battle against climate change, Rebecca sheds light on the intricate web of misinformation and the urgent need for public action. Support the Podcast via PayPal https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=LBGXTRM292TFC&source=url Archival documents published by The Guardian and DeSmog show that the Air Pollution Foundation — the front group WSPA created as a means of delaying clean air regulation implementation aimed at curbing deadly smog emissions in Los Angeles and statewide — led to the discovery of climate change. WSPA was the top funder of the Air Pollution Foundation, whose research concluded that atmospheric carbon could “ultimately prove of considerable significance to civilization.” For an extended interview and other benefits, become an EcoJustice Radio patron at https://www.patreon.com/ecojusticeradio Resources: Revealed: Big Oil Told 70 Years Ago That Fossil Fuel Emissions Could Impact ‘Civilization' - DeSmog https://www.desmog.com/2024/11/12/revealed-big-oil-told-70-years-ago-that-fossil-fuel-emissions-could-impact-civilization/ Rebecca John is a Research Fellow at the Climate Investigations Center [https://climateinvestigations.org/who_we_are/].

In this episode, Bill talks with John Fugelsang about his new book, Separation of Church and Hate: A Sane Person's Guide to Taking Back the Bible from Fundamentalists, Fascists, and Flock-Fleecing Frauds. The discussion focuses on what it really means to follow the teachings of Jesus Christ and critiques the hypocrisy of the religious right. Fugelsang argues that fundamentalists have hijacked Christianity, using it to justify hateful and exclusionary policies while ignoring the core messages of Jesus about love, humility, and service to others. He also addresses hot-button issues like abortion, immigration, and LGBTQ rights, tying each back to scripture to expose the contradictions in right-wing Christian rhetoric. The conversation ends by highlighting progressive Christians and leaders who are working to reclaim Christianity from the clutches of fundamentalism.You can purchase his great book here.Today's Bill Press Pod is supported by The Ironworkers Union.

In this meeting of The Late Diagnosis Club, Dr Angela Kingdon welcomes Monique Lindner — a late-identified Autistic woman whose life once revolved around relentless achievement, overwork, and endurance.Monique was a high-performing systems thinker, corporate leader, and entrepreneur who learned early how to push through trauma, chronic pain, sleep deprivation, and sensory overload. What finally cracked the façade wasn't a dramatic breakdown — it was a slow unravelling, followed by a single, unexpected question from her book editor that sent her down a ten-month path toward understanding her neurodivergence.Together, Angela and Monique explore late identification, masking, Autistic burnout, trauma, friendship loss, unmasking, psychic pattern-matching, and what happens when you stop explaining yourself and start protecting your nervous system.

Welcome back to UnMASKing with Male Educators. As we reflect and look ahead, we're revisiting one of the most personal and vulnerable episodes of the podcast, a re-release of Episode 42.Ashanti shares an honest journey through a 30-day detox that became much more than a health reset. It became a mirror, revealing how food, work, service, and self-neglect can quietly take control when we're carrying the weight of leadership, community care, and purpose-driven work.This episode invites listeners to consider how toxins don't just live in our bodies, they also live in our systems, including our schools. Ashanti connects personal wellness, burnout, masculinity, and emotional labor to the urgent need for proactive care for educators and young people, especially young men.As we prepare for what's next with Ever Forward Club and the Million Mask Movement, this episode is an invitation to pause, reflect, and ask an essential question:Who takes care of the caregivers?How food, work, and service can become coping mechanismsWhat it means to reclaim health while leading othersWhy self-care is not selfish, it's necessary for sustainabilityThe connection between personal detox and detoxifying school cultureHow unaddressed emotional pain shows up in classrooms and communitiesWhy proactive care for young men is urgent, not optional(0:00) Reflection on re-releasing Episode 42(2:30) Early relationship with food, family, and service(6:45) The 30-day detox and what surfaced emotionally(10:30) Weight, health scares, and confronting personal limits(14:30) Why we need people who check in on us honestly(17:50) Educator burnout and the cost of always “being strong”(22:00) The role of Ever Forward Club and community care(23:00) More on the 30-day detox(28:50) Schools in crisis vs. schools doing proactive wellness work(34:50) Why detoxifying schools requires honesty and courage(39:15) The data behind the Global Young Men's Conference(43:50) The Million Mask Movement as a tool for healing(48:30) A call to action: supporting young men and educators(51:00) Closing reflections and looking ahead to 2026“You can't be of service if your body is falling apart.”This conversation reminds us that emotional suppression, overwork, and silence come at a cost — and that healing must happen inside ourselves before it can happen in our schools.Support the Work:Create your own mask anonymously: https://millionmask.orgLearn about the Global Young Men's Conference: https://everforwardclub.orgSupport Ever Forward Club's mission: https://everforwardclub.orgConnect with Ashanti Branch:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/branchspeaks/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/BranchSpeaksTwitter: https://twitter.com/BranchSpeaksLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ashantibranch/Website: https://www.branchspeaks.com/As we close out the year and prepare for what's ahead, we invite you to listen with care, reflect honestly, and consider one step you can take toward greater health — for yourself, and for the young people and communities you serve.Thank you for being part of UnMASKing with Male Educators.

Trump and Hegseth are gearing up to send your kids to die for Israel. Venezuela is the next domino to fall. America's churches have been turned into Israeli fundraising centers and Third-Temple death cults run by fake Khazar “Jews” and their bought-off goy preachers. Pastor Chuck Baldwin joins Stew to burn the entire satanic system straight to hell.   The criminal cabal is using YOUR money to bomb kids overseas and replace us with third-world invaders, all funded by the biggest lie ever told: federal income tax. Peymon Mottahedeh joins Stew tonight to prove there's NO LAW requiring you to file or pay, and shows you exactly how to legally cut them off tomorrow and starve the beast.   The COVID “vaccine” was a military grade bioweapon attack on humanity and the monsters who mandated it are still in power. Paul Rozell lost his 28 years at United Airlines for refusing the poison jab.   Erika Kirk is exploiting Charlie's tragic assassination to push a phony narrative that he secretly lived a Jewish lifestyle and observed Shabbat, all while hawking his posthumous book to promote Judaism and Israel over real Christianity. The truth is Charlie was waking up to the cabal, rejecting their wars and influence, but now his untrustworthy inner circle is rewriting history for power and millions.
