What if the bravest move in midlife isn't to push harder, but to release the grip? We sit down with Dr. Naeema Olatunji to trace a powerful arc from burnout and a life-altering cycling accident to a life rebuilt on faith, non-attachment, and a simple guiding question: what's possible now?We open with the hidden signals that you're overdue for change—the repeating arguments, the stale roles, the identity welded to job titles—and why surrender isn't quitting but choosing peace over illusion. Dr. Naeema shares the moment she let go, lying on the floor of her practice, patients waiting, pain raging, and a clear call to stop carrying what wasn't hers. From there, we unpack a reinvention mindset that rejects the myth of “starting from scratch.” Instead, we talk about starting from wisdom, honoring the version of you that existed before the world piled on shoulds, and using joy as a daily, deliberate choice.Along the way, we explore non-attachment, the “is-ness” of reality, and how to hold both gratitude and grief without pretending. We get practical about boundaries and projection, how to shift from helicoptering to coaching with adult children, and why your closest circle shapes your energy. Dr. Naeema also opens up about her memoir, Raised As A Lie, a candid story about identity, belonging, and becoming, and she shares a free journal resource to help you release what no longer fits and gain clarity for your next chapter.If you're feeling stuck, exhausted by control, or simply ready to step into a lighter, truer season, this conversation offers sturdy tools and a steady hand. Subscribe, share with a friend who needs it, and leave a review to tell us: what will you set down so you can rise?BioFrom crisis to triumph, Dr. Naeema Olatunji, doesn't just inspire change—she builds it. After a decade as a chiropractor, a cycling accident led her to radically reinvent her life. She closed her practice, traveled solo to 13 countries, and founded Every Damn Thing, LLC to help women over 40 reclaim their power.Now a reinvention coach, speaker, and author of Raised as a Lie, Dr. Naeema empowers high-achieving women to rise from burnout, break generational patterns, and thrive with purpose. Her upcoming book, Every Damn Thing: Your Disruption Manual, guides women to stop shrinking and start living fully expressed.Whether in workshops, keynotes, or candid conversations, Dr. Naeema delivers soul-shifting truths and practical tools to help women rewrite what's possible.Website InstagramFacebookLinked In 5 Reflective Prompts to ReIgnite Your Reinvention -FREE DOWNLOADWe hope you have enjoyed this episode.

For the first time FGIS Forum Indonesian Church Sydney hosted a Food & Cultural Bazaar at Randwick City Council, NSW. - Untuk pertama kalinya, FGIS atau Forum Gereja-gereja Indonesia Sydney menyelenggarakan Food & Cultural Bazaar di Randwick City Council, NSW.

A single late-night choice can redraw an entire map. That's what happens when Gail Bliss, a seasoned performer and international flight attendant, taps the audition button on a whim and lands on The Voice as its oldest U.S. contestant to advance—thanks to Snoop Dogg's unexpected replay. We dive into the messy, magnetic reality behind that moment: decades of craft, the pivot from sax to song, the Patsy Cline era, Nashville's backrooms, and a 60th birthday vow to do six epic things that turned a canceled trip into a once-in-a-lifetime stage.We unpack what age really measures—and what it doesn't. Gail shares how she balanced discipline with delight, put her voice to bed while others partied, and still matched the room's spark. She talks candidly about a missed lyric, a wobbly note, and the mind games bright lights can play, then shows how not chasing the outcome freed her to savor the experience. The unlikely pairing with Snoop becomes a lesson in openness: mentorship and opportunity often arrive from outside your lane, and that's where the best stories live.Along the way, we get practical about longevity. Health becomes a creative ally, not a chore: sleep, strength, mobility, and a support team that might include a physician, holistic practitioner, nutritionist, and coach. Invest on the front end so your body can say yes when the dream calls. If you're staring down 40, 60, or any milestone that feels like a deadline, this conversation offers a clear invitation—make your list, press the button, and let curiosity outrun hesitation.If this story fired you up, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs a nudge, and leave a review. Tell us: what bold button are you ready to press next?Bio Chosen from 600 hopefuls to play Patsy Cline in A Closer Walk with Patsy Cline, Gail Bliss portrayed the icon for 30 years in 2,800+ shows across North America, endorsed by Patsy's estate and praised by Paul Harvey as “a sensaysh carbon of Cline.” Seen on The Voice (Team Snoop Dogg), Gail has toured with her band, starred on Broadway, and released 7 acclaimed albums spanning country, blues, and gospel. Website - www.GailBliss.comFacebook InstagramSpotifyYouTube HearNow: GailBliss.hearnow.comWe hope you have enjoyed this episode.

Ever wonder why some foods feel impossible to stop eating? We pull back the curtain on how ultra-processed products are engineered to hook your taste buds, spike your blood sugar, and keep you coming back—while quietly nudging up your risk for type 2 diabetes, mood swings, and gut disruption. With nutritionist Julie Ruelle from Go Coco, we translate the science into everyday choices that protect your hormones, energy, and sanity.We start by separating helpful processing—like freezing vegetables or turning milk into yogurt—from ultra-processed foods packed with dyes, stabilizers, artificial sweeteners, and ingredients your grandparents wouldn't recognize. Julie breaks down the label tricks behind words like “healthy” and “vegan,” and shows how to scan ingredient lists before nutrition panels. From there, we explore the gut-brain axis: why additives and quick carbs can inflame your microbiome, trigger cravings, and derail your mood and focus. You'll learn how probiotic foods (yogurt, kefir, sauerkraut) and prebiotic fibers (whole grains, beans, veggies, fruit) rebuild your gut—and how noticeable improvements often start within two weeks. We share practical ideas: replace the 60-gram sugar coffee drink with a home version using cinnamon and vanilla, upgrade cereal by choosing short-ingredient options and adding nuts and berries, and swap fruit bars for whole fruit plus seeds. We also talk organic priorities for meats and dairy, and why calorie counting can mislead you when nutrient density is the bigger lever.If you're ready to step off the sugar-crash roller coaster and build meals that steady your energy and mood, this conversation gives you the roadmap—clear, doable, and built for real life. Subscribe for more expert-backed insights, share this episode with a friend who's label-curious, and leave a review to tell us the one swap you'll try today.Bio Julie Ruelle is a Registered Dietitian with over 20 years of experience helping people make informed food choices that support long-term health.

But I'm glad if everyone enjoyed themselves."Ja: 奈々も自然と笑っていた。En: Nana ended up smiling naturally.Ja: 混乱の中で、彼女は信頼できる魚をいくつか手に入れられた。En: In the chaos, she managed to obtain some reliable fish.Ja: 普段ならありえないこの経験を、彼女はもう一度してもいいと思った。En: She thought she wouldn't mind experiencing this unusual day once again.Ja: 競り後、遥は深呼吸をした。En: After the auction, Haruka took a deep breath.Ja: 今日は日常を超えて、刺激と楽しさを得ることができた。En: Today, she was able to go beyond the ordinary, gaining both excitement and fun.Ja: 悠人はその後も友好的に笑い、次は周囲にもっと貢献する決意をした。En: Yuto continued to laugh amicably afterward, deciding to contribute more to those around him next time.Ja: 奈々は今日の経験を家族に自慢しようと心に決めた。En: Nana decided to proudly share today's experiences with her family.Ja: 「また、こんな日を待ってるよ。」遥は心の中でつぶやいた。En: "I'll be waiting for another day like this," Haruka whispered to herself.Ja: 築地市場は日常を超える舞台でもあると、彼女は心から思った。En: She genuinely felt that Tsukiji Market was a stage that transcends the ordinary.Ja: 秋の風は心地よく、市場は再び賑やかさを取り戻していた。En: The autumn breeze was pleasant, and the market regained its lively atmosphere once again.

He said with a smile.Ja: ハルトは紅茶を一口飲み、窓の外の紅葉を眺めた。En: Haru took a sip of his tea and gazed at the autumn leaves outside the window.Ja: 彼は心の中で何かが解き放たれるような感覚を覚えた。En: He felt as if something within him was being released.Ja: 「ありがとう、マイ、ケンジ。En: "Thank you, Mai, Kenji.Ja: 僕、東京に行くことにするよ。En: I've decided to go to Tokyo.Ja: でも、ここにまた帰ってくるよ。」En: But I'll come back here again."Ja: その決断は、ハルトをより自信にあふれるものに変えた。En: That decision transformed Haru into a more confident person.Ja: 京都を愛し続けながら、新しい場所で挑戦することも恐れない、そんな自分を思い描いた。En: He envisioned himself as someone who, while continuing to love Kyoto, would not fear taking on new challenges in a new place.Ja: 彼は立ち上がり、二人に感謝の言葉を伝え、ティーショップを後にした。En: He stood up, expressed his gratitude to the two of them, and left the tea shop.Ja: 彼の心には、まわりの鮮やかな紅葉と同じように、何か新しいものが芽生えようとしていた。En: In his heart, just like the vibrant autumn leaves around him, something new was about to sprout.

A home cook's guide to one of America's most diverse - and delicious - cuisines, from James Beard Award-winning author and culinary historian Michael W. Twitty 'Our cuisine, with its grits and black-eyed peas, crab cakes, red rice, and endless variations on the staple foods of the region, casts a spell that, if you're lucky, gets passed down with snapping string beans at the table and chewing cane on the back porch.' - Michael W. Twitty In the introduction to this groundbreaking recipe collection, acclaimed historian Michael W. Twitty declares, 'No one state or area can give you the breadth of the Southern story or fully set the Southern table.' To answer this, Recipes from the American South journeys from the Louisiana Bayou to the Chesapeake Bay, showcasing more than 260 of the region's most beloved dishes. Across more than 400 pages, Twitty explores the broad culinary sweep that Southern history and its many cultures represent. Recipes for breads and biscuits, mains and sides, stews, sauces, and sweets feature insightful headnotes and clear, step-by-step instructions. Home cooks will discover both iconic dishes and lesser-known specialties: Chicken and Dumplings, She-crab Soup, Red Eye Gravy, Benne Seed Wafers, Hummingbird Cake, and Mint Juleps appear alongside Shrimp Pilau, Chorizo Dirty Rice, Sumac Lemonade, and Cajun Pig's Ears Pastry.

Three survivors share their breast cancer journey.  They talk about how mindset, medicine, and community changed their breast cancer outcomes. We explore early detection, individualized treatment, cultural barriers in care, and practical tips from nutrition to radiation skin protection. A life-changing diagnosis doesn't arrive with a manual, so we brought together three women who wrote their own. Cynthia Rogers, Meri Ramey Gray, and Dr. Ebony Prophet Bullock open up about the messy middle—dense breast screenings, biopsies, chemo side effects, radiation skin care—and the unexpected moments of clarity that guided their choices. Their stories are different, but the throughline is unmistakable: early detection, fierce self-advocacy, and a mindset that holds faith and science in the same hand.We dig into what most blogs skip. Cynthia explains how a support group named her “mystery” numbness as neuropathy and pushed her care team to adjust chemo. Mary walks us through trusting intuition, why some antioxidants can blunt chemotherapy, and how an unconventional spray tan barrier helped her avoid radiation burns. Ebony threads a powerful spiritual arc through a year of profound loss, then shows how understanding her tumor's grade and stage shaped the order of surgery, chemo, and radiation. She also speaks directly to Black women about cultural pressure, medical bias, and the healing power of therapy alongside prayer.You'll leave with a smarter playbook: read your screening letters, know the difference between stage and grade, ask about genetic testing and clinical trials, and bring a notebook to every appointment. Pair nutrition with your regimen instead of against it, question one-size-fits-all protocols, and build a circle that includes oncologists, nurses, therapists, and the people who lift your spirit. Most of all, trust the quiet inner signal—intuition is data, and it belongs at the table with evidence.If this conversation helps you or someone you love, tap follow, share it with a friend who needs it, and leave a review so more people can find these life-saving stories.Websites Ebony Prophet-Bullock, EdD.https://stan.store/THTFaithBreast Cancer and Your Faith: A Journey to Joy- https://a.co/d/eVUfZy6Anxiety Unlock: Your Personal Journey to Peace- https://a.co/d/0BXuNFAPrayer Unlock: Your Personal Journey to Peace- https://a.oco/d/gDAsC7TMeri Rameywww.masssoulinfusion.comCynthia Rogers Boob Talk PodcastWe hope you have enjoyed this episode.

Join us as we explore the journey of Connie Warden, a local author and acupuncturist from Littleton, Colorado, who has recently published a book that bridges her personal experiences with her professional wisdom. In our conversation, Connie shares her path from discovering yoga at a young age to mastering oriental medicine and embracing indigenous cultures. She reveals a pivotal moment on the road that highlighted a gap between her personal values and actions, leading her to emphasize the importance of self-awareness in everyday situations. Listen in as Connie discusses how aligning actions with beliefs can turn mundane experiences into opportunities for personal growth. We also touch on the power of choosing courage over negativity by sharing personal anecdotes and insights from thought leaders like Brene Brown. Through stories from her time at OsteoStrong, we explore how adopting a compassionate perspective can enhance personal peace and interactions with others. The episode concludes with practical ways to connect with Connie, including her social media presence and special offers for listeners. We celebrate her journey in publishing and the impact her work has on readers' lives, all while highlighting the broader theme of learning through activities and sports that challenge our internal narratives.

Some stories are spoken. Others are lived so powerfully they outshine words. Karen Wilson joins us to share how a 17-year caregiving journey with her mother—through cancer, stroke, COPD, and chronic pain—became a living curriculum for resilience, presence, and protective love. When a stroke silenced her mother's speech, gestures and energy did the talking, teaching Karen to pour hope, choose her words with care, and treat gratitude as a daily state, not a polite reaction.We go deep on the mindset that sustains caregivers and anyone navigating long seasons of stress: how to make a life while making a living, why productivity can't replace purpose, and the role of consistent, simple wellness habits that actually stick. Karen opens her toolkit for advocacy inside hospitals and rehabs—health care proxies, durable power of attorney, reading treatment plans, and partnering with social workers—so you can push for better outcomes without burning bridges. If you've ever felt dismissed by “baseline” talk or boxed in by algorithms, this conversation offers language and strategy to stay strong and collaborative.Journaling threads it all together. Karen shares how themed journaling—anchored by words like Enough or Not Yet—helped her step back from crisis, process emotion, and return to presence. It's a practical, accessible way to manage caregiver burnout, reduce anxiety, and reclaim clarity. Along the way we reflect on loss, legacy, and the seeds mothers plant that keep blooming long after they're gone. Expect tangible tools, honest encouragement, and a gentle push to redefine success around love, laughter, and learning.If you're a caregiver, midlife listener, or anyone rebuilding after hardship, this one is for you.

Life, Economy, and Chinese Threat Perception in Taipei, Taiwan Guest: Anne Stevenson-Yang Anne Stevenson-Yang reports from Taipei, Taiwan, a vibrant economy and republic vital to the global economy due to TSMC, the microchip maker. Taiwan is characterized by a wonderful public culture where honesty and personal safety are prevalent. Despite its high-tech focus, the economy suffers from problems common elsewhere, including increasing income inequality, unaffordability, high housing prices, and stagnant wages. Regarding geopolitical tensions, the average Taiwanese person is largely immune to the constant threat from China, having heard talk of belligerence for the last 30 years. However, there is apprehension related to China's grim economic winter and growing concern that the US protective umbrella may be receding, leading to more interest in investing in Taiwan's own defense. 1925 TAIPEI

What happens when you challenge the status quo of Agile, throw out bloated teams, and supercharge small pods with AI? In this episode, Jeff Mains sits down with Mac, founder of Wednesday Solutions, to explore the evolution of product development teams. Mac shares why he believes traditional Agile is obsolete and how his company's “product pods” are delivering massive impact with lean teams. Dive into real-world strategies on using AI to automate grunt work, focus on real customer value, and deliver faster than ever. Mac and Jeff also discuss over-engineering pitfalls, the essential Sprint Zero, and what's next for tech leadership in the age of AI.Key Takeaways00:00 "Impactful Small Teams"06:03 AI-Powered Engineering and Vibe Sprints07:15 "AI-First vs. Human-First Mindset"10:33 Rural Loan Tech Success15:28 "Sprint Zero: Focusing on One Problem"16:50 User-Centric Product Roadmap Creation20:00 AI: The New Industrial Revolution25:09 From Doing to Empowering Others27:18 Embrace Incremental Change30:47 Thoughtful Hiring in App Development35:53 "Utilize Managed Services First"37:15 "CTO: Bridge Across Tech, Product, Business"Tweetable QuotesAI-First Mindset: "Are you AI first or are you human first? Do you typically think of how I can do this myself, or do you think about what tools I can use to leverage, what tools I can leverage to actually get this done?" — Mac Viral Topic: The Dangers of Over-Engineering Early "don't try to build for scale before you even get your first user. Sort of like not over engineering over there is very important." — Mac The Power of Interdisciplinary Collaboration: "So when I think about it, having a product manager with tech experience or engineering experience and sort of bringing the intersection of these two disciplines together is first and foremost, most important." — MacThe Art of Delegation: "The question that I keep asking myself at the end of every week is how well would things have gone if I wasn't there for this week? And how well will things go if I'm not there next week, right?" — MacViral Topic: AI and Interview Strategies: "What was possible to build in weeks or months earlier is now possible within a few minutes with a few prompts."— Mac The Dangers of Confirmation Bias in Product Development: "And so we build a product and then get to the end. And it's not really what the market was looking for or it was close, but it's off a little bit." — Jeff Mains Viral Leadership Secret: "The most successful leaders aren't lone heroes. They're the center of four specific relationships that multiply their impact while preserving their sanity." — Jeff Mains SaaS Leadership LessonsTrue Velocity Comes from Focus, Not Headcount:Small teams with well-defined roles and clear ownership far outpace large, fragmented ones.Delegate Relentlessly:Great leaders empower others to own outcomes, not just tasks—Mac constantly asks how his absence would impact the team.Start with the Problem, Not the Solution:Sprint Zero ensures the product addresses a real, validated user pain—don't let assumption drive your build.Embrace Incremental Change:Don't fall for the “big-bang” launch myth when modernizing systems; ship value early and often.Hire for Specialization, Not Generalization:Early mistakes in hiring generalists slowed quality—now, experts who excel at their craft yield superior results.Leverage AI as a Force-Multiplier:The best...

When we think of STEM, we often picture engineers, chemists, or programmers. But what about someone who patents a piece of clothing, challenges the textile industry, and builds a company around purpose-driven innovation?In a very unique episode of The TechEd Podcast, host Matt Kirchner sits down with Michael Drescher, Founder of Vibrant Body Company. Drescher's career has spanned cable TV, logistics, and media before leading him to unexpected innovations in fabric science and apparel. His story shows how engineering, chemistry, and entrepreneurship intersect in surprising ways — and why educators should encourage students to look beyond conventional STEM paths.From patents to cross-disciplinary collaboration, from science to social impact, Drescher offers a compelling case for why the next generation of innovators must combine technical skill with a sense of mission.Listen to learn:Why engineering careers often appear in unexpected industriesHow chemistry and materials science drive innovation in everyday productsWhat a utility patent in fashion reveals about unconventional STEM applicationsWhy budding entrepreneurs should leverage subject-matter experts from a range of fields to solve complex challengesWhy purpose-driven entrepreneurship matters for the next generation of innovators3 Big Takeaways from this Episode:1. Innovation often begins with a personal “why.” Drescher's journey started after losing loved ones to breast cancer, whereafter he dove into the science of women's garments and became the "unexpected messenger" of the fashion industry's pitfalls. From polyurethane cups to restricting the lymphatic system to "if it's on you, it's in you," Drescher shares the unexpected science of textiles.2. There's a need for STEM professionals in industries most people overlook. Vibrant Body's approach to undergarment design and manufacturing is a lesson in applied STEM - from the biomedical science of the "electrical body" to the chemistry of textiles to the engineering of clothing design. It's a lesson for educators to broaden their students' understanding of potential career fields in STEM disciplines.3. Collaboration across disciplines drives real breakthroughs. The Vibrant team combined expertise from molecular biology, technical bra design, German manufacturing, and Italian fabric engineering to create a product that earned a rare utility patent. Drescher emphasized that innovation is “breadcrumbing” - each expert leads to the next - a lesson educators can pass on to students tackling complex problems.Resources in this Episode:Vibrant Body: vibrantbodycompany.comOther:Michael's Tedx Talk on YouTube: "Theories on Breast Cancer"Breast Cancer Prevention PartnersBooks:Dressed to Kill: The Link Between Breast Cancer and BrasThe Gene: An Intimate HistoryWe want to hear from you!
