This week's episode explores the thought, “I need to be valued.” This thought can become so insidious with its underlying beliefs – for example, believing our support, our existence depends on being liked by others. There can be a laundry list of things we think we need to be valued for: our time, our presence, our various roles, and most often just … ourselves. But what happens when we believe this? What becomes of our sense of freedom? As Tom often puts it, does it give us a big, fat ‘Yes!' to life? Or does this thought become a prison shackle that we try to accommodate by contorting ourselves in order to be valued by others, and resenting them when they don't come through with that validation? If you're somewhere on your own freedom journey, we invite you to join this conversation and facilitation guided by Tom.

Hi Mamas, This week's Monday Mindset is for every working mom who's flying solo from a home office (that doubles as the laundry folding station)… or working behind the scenes in a role where your impact isn't always front and center. Because let's be real… when you're working from home, it can feel like you're doing all the things… producing, emailing, creating, planning, wrangling tiny humans, and reheating your coffee for the third time… and yet, sometimes it feels like no one notices. That's why we're anchoring this week's reset with one powerful quote by Porter Gale:

 Alan Gayle, president of Via Nova Investment Management, is concerned about economic sluggishness and "how the world is going to look and who is going to win" after tariff and rate changes fully play out. Coupled with a stock market where he sees equities as overpriced, that leaves Gayle wanting to be fully diversified, including a full allocation to domestic bonds but also international stocks, where he finds compelling values that he thinks can continue to run. Gayle says that he expects the Federal Reserve to cut rates soon, but "anything the Fed does today takes at least nine months to work," so he thinks it will take that long for the market to get some clarity; as a result, he wants to stay invested and buy any dips while waiting for opportunities to become more apparent.    Xander Gray, chief executive at XG Capital Strategies, says that current price levels are high compared to moving averages which suggests that there might be a consolidation or pullback in the offing. Gray — who was last on the show late in 2024, when he called for a market downturn and a recession — says spending and other factors have helped to hold off the recession, though the numbers are showing signs of a weakening that makes the market's current rally hard to trust.     Mitchel Penn, managing director of equity research for Oppenheimer & Co., says that business-development companies have moved past concerns about a spike in credit losses and are now "fairly valued" by the market, meaning that their biggest potential gains for the remainder of the year will come from simply capturing dividend payouts. That's not bad, especially because he expects payouts to remain in the high single-digit range, even after likely interest rate cuts that will carry into 2026.

Mitchel Penn, Managing Director of Equity Research for Oppenheimer & Co., says that business-development companies are now "fairly valued" by the market, which means that their biggest potential gains for the remainder of the year will come from simply capturing dividend payouts. In 2026, with the industry likely facing interest rate cuts, BDCs will see their return on equity shrink in line with rate declines, saying that for every 1% cut in rates, BDC payouts would be expected to shrink in step. In an interview from AICA's BDC Forum in June, Penn noted that he was worried about a spike in credit losses that BDCs experienced in the first quarter of 2025; he said that pressure has passed, dramatically reducing his concerns about the potential for BDCs to disappoint investors.

In Him was Life, and the Life was the Light of men. And the Light shines on in the darkness, for the darkness has never overpowered it…. John 1:4-5, The Amplified Bible _____________________________________________________________ Whenever things around you get dark and you feel the devil is about to overpower you, remember this: You have the Light of the world in you, and try as they may, all the forces of hell can't put it out! Even when you're at your weakest, even when you feel like the light within you is small, the devil's darkness is no match for you. Let me show you what I mean. Imagine for a moment that you're in a large auditorium that has no windows or doors to let in outside light. The place is so black you can't see anything, not even your hand in front of your face. There's nothing around you but complete darkness!

Arsenal have pulled off one of the most ruthless transfer hijacks in years, snatching Eberechi Eze right from under Tottenham's nose. Valued at over £67m, this deal is more than just money, it's about intent, depth, and welcoming back a former youth player now at the peak of his powers.In this episode of the Up Gunners Podcast, we break down:How Arsenal sealed the Eze deal and why Spurs fans are furiousWhat Eze brings to Arteta's system, creativity, unpredictability, and a touch of Özil with dynamismArsenal vs Leeds match preview: injury updates, predicted XI, and key battlesArsenal's new Coca-Cola partnership, what it means commercially and for fans worldwideFrom squad depth to sponsorship strategy, this episode dives into the business and football sides of Arsenal's rise.Predictions: Opta gives Arsenal a 70% chance of victory against Leeds. Will Arteta's men deliver or slip up?

Jesus has great compassion for everyone. Especially for those society considers unlovable or worth nothing.One day, He stopped by a well and had a conversation with a woman who had been married five times. When He spoke to her, He knew she was now living with another man. Yet Jesus spoke to her in a way that let her know He valued her as a person.He told her that people could drink the water from that well, but again, they would eventually be thirsty. He said to her that the water He gives is a spring welling up inside them, pointing to eternal life.John 7:38 says, “Whoever believes in me, as Scripture has said, rivers of living water will flow from within them.” Do you believe in Him? Have you had your encounter with Jesus? If you are thirsty for a new life, reach out to Him and listen to what Jesus has to say.Your life will no longer be dry and lifeless.New life will flow out of you so that others will notice and want what you have!Let's pray.Lord, much of what the world offers doesn't satisfy us. We need the living water only you can provide. In Jesus' name, amen. Change your shirt, and you can change the world!

GroundUp journalist Steven Kretzmann speaks to John Maytham about the urgent court challenge brought by major commercial property owners against Cape Town’s new “Invested in Hope” budget. Valued at R40-billion over three years and framed as a pro-poor initiative, the budget was revised after heavy criticism to reduce the new cleaning tariff, raise the pensioner rates rebate threshold, and lower fixed water and sanitation charges for properties below R2.5-million. But companies including Growthpoint, Hyprop, Old Mutual and Redefine argue parts of it are unlawful, with the case now before the Western Cape High Court and the outcome set to shape how the City can fund and implement its measures.

We embark on a journey to discover how God "customizes" His presence (via our perception of where He dwells) to meet the needs and frame of reference of different people across time. We start with a spoiler alert and read the final chapter first. In Revelation 21 we are promised “Look, God's home is now among his people! He will live with them, and they will be his people. God himself will be with them. 4 He will wipe every tear from their eyes, and there will be no more death or sorrow or crying or pain. All these things are gone forever.” This side by side, face to face reality is begun in Eden, wherein the great fall/schism occurs, the repair of which will occupy the rest of the bible. After quite a rough and tumble start to things, YHVH makes numerous promises to be with His people, even though what that "withness" looks like will change over time. To investigate this most important of stories further, go here.

In the second week of our Guided by Grace series Pastor Harvey reminds us how Jesus, The Good Shepherd, values each of us deeply and tenderly cares for our needs—never leaving us alone.

Have you ever achieved a big goal, only to feel something was missing afterward? Or wondered why no amount of external validation ever seems quite enough? Today, I'm excited to reshare a meaningful conversation from the Mental Training Lab podcast, where I sat down with sport and performance psychology expert Pete Kadushin to talk about the powerful concept of “mattering.”If you are a regular listener, you know how this message has impacted me: how shifting from perfectionistic, outcome-driven mindsets toward purposeful action and intrinsic motivation can transform not just your performance but also your entire approach to life. We discuss why feeling valued and adding value to others is far more fulfilling than chasing external accolades, how to recognize and use your character strengths to foster deeper connections, and practical strategies for cultivating lasting resilience and well-being.Here is what you'll learn:The power of matteringOvercoming perfectionismLeveraging character strengthsThe importance of recognition and communicationSavoring and gratitude practices LINKS:- Listen to The Mental Training Lab with Pete Kadushin- Finding Meaning and Mattering at Work with Andrew Soren- Insights from IPAA Brisbane 2025--------------The Grow the Good Podcast is produced by Palm Tree Pod Co.

Mattering—feeling valued and knowing one adds value—is essential to mental health, wellbeing, and flourishing. How does one recognize mattering in oneself and others? Why does it seem so elusive in personal and professional life? What can individuals do to elicit it, how can leaders celebrate it, and how do we collectively embrace it to champion the world we can all thrive in?

It can be one of the most frustrating things in the world. That discontent and confusion about your professional life and where it's headed. The feeling that keeps you up at night, scrolling job postings, revisiting all the “what if's” from your past, and daydreaming about a complete 180 you've always thought about, but never acted on. Staying in this mental space doesn't just drain your energy, it leaves you lost, confused about your future and what a step forward even looks like. Whether you're burnt out, fed up with the bureaucracy, or simply craving a new challenge— you need definitive clarity about what you want, along with an honest map of the current landscape so you can make the next right move.

Have you ever felt awkward accepting a compliment or unsure how to show genuine appreciation to someone on your team without it feeling forced? In busy school environments, appreciation often gets reduced to coffee carts and morning teas. While well-intentioned, these gestures don’t always land in the way we hope. Many educators still walk away feeling unseen, undervalued, or even uncomfortable with recognition. So what gives? In this episode, I chat with Daniela Falecki, an international speaker, coach, and founder of Teacher Wellbeing, to unpack what she calls The Appreciation Paradox. Drawing on decades of experience in education and the fields of Positive and Coaching Psychology, Daniela shares why meaningful appreciation is a wellbeing essential, not a fluffy extra. Together, we explore how schools can move beyond performative gestures to create a culture where staff feel truly seen, valued and motivated to keep showing up with heart. In this episode, we cover: The concept of the Appreciation Paradox and why educators deeply crave appreciation but often struggle to receive it or recognise it Why typical “rewards” like coffee carts or morning teas often miss the mark when it comes to meaningful appreciation The importance of having deeper, more personalised conversations about what appreciation looks and feels like for individuals The difference between recognition and appreciation, and why both are necessary in schools How appreciation ties into burnout prevention, workplace connection and motivation Common cultural barriers in schools that make appreciation feel like “lip service” or inauthentic Why vulnerability matters in leadership, and how to model it in a professional way How appreciation preferences differ, drawing on “The Five Languages of Appreciation in the Workplace” The importance of coaching-style leadership and better questioning to create deeper, more human conversations About Daniela Daniela Falecki, founder of Teacher Wellbeing, is an international speaker, author, and the “keep-it-real” teacher, known for her high-energy, engaging presentations that leave audiences laughing and thinking. With over 25 years of experience in Australian schools and a background in Positive Psychology and Coaching Psychology, Daniela empowers educators globally to enhance their wellbeing. She holds a Master’s in Education (Leadership) and has lectured at the University of Sydney, where she was named Lecturer of the Year in 2014. A licensed Mental Toughness practitioner and Executive Coach, Daniela is committed to supporting educators in thriving both personally and professionally.

Morning Mantra: "Stop trying to be liked by everybody, you don't even like everybody." There is a difference between be liked and being valued. You can like someone and not value them. You can also value someone and not particularly like them.If you want to find people who truly value you then you have to be yourself. Every imperfection, every past mistake, every awkward moment. Everything.Show them who you REALLY are. Don't be liked OR valued for being fake. Because if you want an authentic relationship they have to really know you and what you bring.You'll be too much for some and not enough for others, but you'll be just right for many. It's OK if it's not a big crowd. I'd rather have a small circle of true friends that value me than a larger circle because I am faking it.#BeAllOfYou #BeHappy#BeHorsey #BeHippie#HorseHippie#MorningMantra#InspirationalQuotes

In this heart-centered episode of the Equipping ELLs podcast, Beth Vaucher dives into one of the most overlooked yet powerful strategies for supporting English Language Learners (ELLs): intentional connection. As the new school year begins, Beth emphasizes the importance of creating an environment where students feel seen, valued, and confident from the very first day. Instead of focusing solely on academic prep, she encourages educators to prioritize building authentic relationships that set the foundation for long-term success.Beth walks listeners through five proven strategies for establishing intentional connection, starting with the vital act of pronouncing students' names correctly, a simple but impactful gesture that validates identity. She discusses how to offer choice in sharing, acknowledging that newcomers may not be ready to open up about their backgrounds right away. Through flexible, low-pressure activities like “Would You Rather” games, teachers can gently encourage participation without overwhelming students.The episode also explores how to use culturally relevant materials, from books and visuals to classroom decor, to affirm students' diverse identities. Beth shares how daily routines and rituals, like consistent greetings and check-ins, help build predictability and trust. Most importantly, she highlights the value of celebrating multilingualism through classroom labels, bilingual books, and encouraging students to share in their home language.Listeners will walk away with practical tools, including free resources like multilingual labels and access to an upcoming webinar on setting up routines.

What does the superyachting industry have to do with your leadership style?  Turns out, a whole lot. In this episode, I'm joined by Karine Rayson, an expert in leadership and mental health within the superyacht industry – where teams are required to live and work together 24/7 out at sea. And in that intense environment… leadership matters. And it's no different for your business. These leadership and communication skills are foundational for any business, even if you're on dry land. Here's What You'll Discover in This Episode:  The metric that sets high-performing teams apart from the rest, and why authoritative leadership is a recipe for ego issues and disengagement. The parallels between life on a superyacht and running a small business – and why it all boils down to leadership and strong team communication. The (so often overlooked!) layers of communication that build trust. How to spot the small, physical signs that signal something's wrong before it's too late. Why slipping work, a lack of eye contact, or mismatched energy might actually be a silent plea for support from your team (and what you can do to turn things around). Karine's psychology-backed tips to make your team feel seen and valued – and why success all starts at onboarding. What emotional literacy really means (and what it DOESN'T!), and why self-awareness is the foundation of leading others well. The most uncomfortable, but essential, thing you can do as a leader to grow your emotional intelligence and improve your team's ability to work well together. Why shifting from an authoritative leader to a facilitator actually creates a more connected, motivated, and purpose-driven team. Karine's leadership non-negotiables to create a psychologically safe space, lead people in the same direction towards your ultimate goal, And so, so much more… Mentioned in This Episode: The HerBusiness Network Flung Ceramics with Michelle Cox Michelle Cox's Podcast - One Question

If our work in the behavioral health world focuses on meeting the clients where they are at to increase outcomes, wouldn't the parallel process of meeting employees where they are at have similar results? Consultant Gina Thorne joins us to talk about Servant Leadership, a model in leadership that taps into the needs of the employees and teams, rather than leading in a more common transactional relationship. A must-listen for anyone in a leadership position or aspiring for such!

Nothing will haunt you like the things you leave unsaid. It's a bold statement, and a chilling one—but unfortunately, most of us know exactly how true it is. You owe it to them and to yourself to speak the truth about what they mean to you. No matter the regrettable things you've said or done to each other... the failures, the absences, the apologies never given, or the love you didn't express—it needs to get out. We've covered a wide range of topics since launching this podcast, but this one stands out as an evergreen. It's a conversation that will withstand the test of time and deeply resonate with YOU. In this episode, Brett shoots straight from the heart and will explain: Why we often don't say what needs to be said—how assumptions, pride, and fear keep olive branches from growing The danger of “safe” silence—and how it can quietly grow into full-blown regret How to make sure you're not leaving yourself out of the conversation by silencing your own positive affirmations A practical strategy to turn that charged cluster of emotions and thoughts into something meaningful (SPOILER: Just say it messy!) Setting clear expectations and staying grounded in case the message isn't received the way you hoped

Jon Charbonneau and Ryan Berckmans join Bankless to debate Ethereum's future: is ETH undervalued, or has the market already spoken? We unpack whether Ethereum can rival Bitcoin as a store of value, if L2s will drive real value back to ETH, and whether Solana's momentum signals deeper trouble for Ethereum. Jon argues ETH has lost its lead and may never reclaim it. Ryan contends Ethereum's neutrality and institutional traction make it the inevitable hub for the onchain economy. This is the definitive conversation on where ETH stands—and where it's heading. ------

Are we expecting too much from our jobs - and is it costing us our health, relationships and happiness?   This week I'm delighted to welcome back someone who is regarded as one of the most insightful and original voices on modern relationships, the psychotherapist Esther Perel. Fluent in nine languages, Esther has her own therapy practice in New York City, serves as an organisational consultant for multiple Fortune 500 companies and is ALSO the author of the New York Times Bestselling books, ‘Mating in Captivity' and ‘The State of Affairs'.   Although Esther is probably best known for her teachings and wisdom on our romantic relationships, more recently she has turned her attention to our work relationships. The occasion for this appearance on my podcast is to celebrate the release of her brand new 100-question card game designed to transform your work culture – one story and one relationship at a time.   In this thought-provoking conversation, we explore how our expectations of the workplace have shifted dramatically – and why it's creating both opportunity and strain. Esther shares that in the past, work was primarily about survival, duty and financial stability. But today, many of us are looking to our jobs to provide identity, belonging, fulfilment and even self-worth.   We discuss: Esther's four key pillars of healthy workplace relationships – trust, belonging, recognition and collective resilience – and why these needs mirror those in our romantic lives How unresolved workplace issues can lead to emotional exhaustion, poor health choices and a reduced capacity to connect at home How our increasingly digital lives are reducing the everyday social skills we need to connect, communicate and collaborate How our personal relationship history – our “unofficial CV” – shows up at work and influences how we handle authority, conflict, feedback and boundaries Why managing conflict well can deepen connection – and how curiosity and honest self-reflection can transform how we show up in all areas of life  Throughout our conversation, Esther offers compassion and clarity, breaking down complex emotional patterns into simple, human truths we can all relate to – and, most importantly, act on.    She encourages us to approach work relationships not as transactional, but as relational, inviting us to bring the same level of curiosity, empathy, and accountability that we would bring to any meaningful connection.   At a time when so many of us are feeling isolated or overwhelmed, Esther's advice shows that even small shifts in how we relate, listen and respond can spark meaningful change at work, with our families and ourselves.

Do you know your blood type? Do you know why we have different blood types? This episode begins with some interesting intel about blood types, why you should know yours and why some people actually have no blood type. https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20140715-why-do-we-have-blood-types You have probably heard about the value of validating someone else's feelings and experience. What you may not have heard is the science that proves just how powerful it is when you want to connect with someone or influence them. When done right, validation can transform a relationship according to my guest Caroline Fleck, PhD. She is a licensed psychologist, and Adjunct Clinical Instructor at Stanford University as well as the author of the book Validation: How the Skill Set That Revolutionized Psychology Will Transform Your Relationships, Increase Your Influence, and Change Your Life (https://amzn.to/3YgpzAK) Pronouns are some of the hardest working words in the English language. I, you, me, he, she, we, they – and yet the way these words behave in our language can sometimes be maddening. For example, the word “you” can mean 1 person or a group of people. In a lot of other languages, there are two different words. While English teachers will tell you that the correct way to say this is, “He and I went to the store” doesn't it feel more natural to say, “Him and me went to the store.”? Joining me to dive into the world of pronouns is John H. McWhorter. He teaches linguistics, American studies, and music history at Columbia University and is the host of the podcast Lexicon Valley (https://slate.com/podcasts/lexicon-valley). John is the author of twenty-three books including his latest, Pronoun Trouble: The Story of Us in Seven Little Words (https://amzn.to/4iSauh1) What should go on a resume?
