Jackson for a long-form conversation about Martin Luther King Jr. and why his legacy still provokes such strong emotional and political reactions. Chad is an independent filmmaker and researcher whose work returns to primary sources and overlooked voices, and that lens shapes everything we talk about here.He recently participated in an MLK debate that ran for hours, creating space for historical context instead of sound bites and patience instead of performative rebuttals. That debate opens the door into a much larger conversation about history, memory, and how certain narratives become culturally untouchable.We dig into how the Civil Rights Movement is taught, celebrated, and reinforced from an early age, often without room for deeper examination. Chad draws from archival research, period publications, and primary documents, showing how interpretation influences public memory just as much as the facts themselves.This episode is for listeners who value critical thinking and aren't afraid to sit with uncomfortable questions.You'll Learn:[00:00] Introduction[08:52] What triggered Chad to investigate the MLK narrative[17:13] Challenging northern propaganda about slavery[27:40]  Life for black Americans prior to the Civil Rights Movement[44:45] King's upbringing: born into wealthy black elite family, Daddy King's social gospel, and rejecting Christ's divinity by age 12[01:03:13] Why both the FBI and communists wanted the civil rights movement [01:09:38] The aftermath of the Civil Rights Movement [01:17:03] The MLK docuseries structure[01:34:42] The century-long project to separate blacks from Western civilization[01:49:41] Why classism is just another victimization trap[02:08:55] How hip hop culture has negatively impacted the black community[02:22:40] Malcom X and the Civil Rights Movement[02:42:02] The notion that fascism is a reaction to hyper liberalismResources Mentioned:Hatred and Profits: Getting Under the Hood of the Ku Klux Klan by Fryer G.

Most people focus on intake while missing the form water needs to support energy, clarity, and resilience at the cellular level. That's why many feel foggy or depleted despite constantly drinking. Liquid water alone doesn't create hydration. Ancestral cultures understood this long before measuring ounces. Desert peoples stayed hydrated well before modern plumbing existed.In this episode, I talk with Erin Sojourner, Chief Strategic Officer at Spring Aqua with decades of experience in regenerative agriculture, and Gina Bria, an anthropologist and founder of the Hydration Foundation who studies hydration across cultures and ecosystems. Their work bridges structured water science, living systems, and real-world applications—from soil and food to human energy.Together, we dismantle hydration myths, discuss fourth phase water, and challenge the assumption that more drinking is always better.This conversation replaces hydration confusion with a functional model of how water creates energy.You'll Learn:[00:00] Introduction[08:14] What does true hydration really look like?[16:53] The three ways water functions beyond being a simple material substance[21:22] The reason we are walking around still feeling so dehydrated, regardless of how much water we drink[26:27] The limitations of reverse osmosis and distilled water, and what chia seeds can help with[42:43] Why trace minerals in water are essential even with nutrient-dense food[57:05] The biomimicry technology behind Spring Aqua's system[01:15:56] Erin's path from first customer to joining the company [01:27:40] The upcoming agricultural device[01:31:23] How water operates at subatomic wave levels[01:37:43] Why humans are 99% water molecularly and how hydration expands perception[01:47:41] Gina's vision for a water-based economyResources Mentioned:Quench by Gina Bria | Book or AudiobookHow to Grow Water — It's Not Only Blue, It's Green by Gina Bria | TEDx TalkThe Gnosis and the Law by Tellis S.

#205 - Some stories don't just move you—they recalibrate your sense of what's possible. Adriene Caldwell grew up in the crosshairs of untreated schizophrenia, constant relocation, and a home life that spun from denial to violence. After losing the grandmother who shielded her, she entered a foster system that should have offered stability and instead delivered degradation: separate dishes, floor seating, and rules designed to remind her she didn't belong. The stats she shares are brutal—one in five inmates are former foster youth, seven in ten foster girls have a child by 21, and fewer than three percent use free college benefits—but the real shock is how incentives often reward keeping kids “high need” rather than helping them heal.What changed her trajectory was a lifeline she claimed for herself: a coveted congressional exchange to Germany. There, a host family modeled warmth, boundaries, and trust. Adriene learned German the hard way—by speaking it every day—aced tough classes at a college-track school, and felt the shift that happens when someone insists you sit in the front seat for the view. Returning stateside just shy of 18, she found no plan waiting and wrote letters up the chain until one emerged. Along the way, a third-grade math teacher delivered hotel toiletries to a housing project, and a fierce English teacher stocked her classroom with computers and left one to Adriene before she died. Those acts—practical, personal, and precisely timed—became stepping stones to scholarships and a future she couldn't yet picture.We also explore why Adriene wrote Unbroken, Life Outside the Lines, and how revisiting old case files forced a reckoning with both the parts of survival that became manipulation and the parts that deserve pride. Her message to teens at the edge is simple and urgent: your life won't always look like this, and soon your choices will shape what comes next—numbing or healing, hiding or asking, repeating or rebuilding.If this conversation resonates, share it with someone who needs proof that change is possible.

The conversation centers on why chronic conditions often persist when health is treated as purely physical and what becomes possible when the human biofield is taken seriously.Health is approached here as an interaction between the body, emotional patterns, belief systems, and awareness itself. We examine how modalities like acupuncture, hands-off energy healing, and biofield-based practices point toward the same underlying principle: coherence matters.Placebo and nocebo effects expose a familiar pattern: real-world results consistently outpacing institutional validation.

Hey friends, Chase here This episode is short and direct — and it centers on an idea that runs counter to how most of us try to solve creative problems. When we feel stuck, uncertain, or restless, our instinct is usually to think harder. To analyze. To wait for clarity. But here's the truth I've learned the hard way: you can't think your way forward. Clarity doesn't come from sitting on the couch running mental simulations. It comes from action. From making. From trying things in the real world and paying attention to what happens next. Early in my career, I hit a real creative rut. I questioned whether photography was truly my thing, or whether some other medium might be a better fit. And I could have stayed stuck in that loop for months — thinking, debating, second-guessing. Instead, I ran experiments. I tried painting. I learned from it. And just as importantly, I learned what wasn't my path. Here's the core idea: action beats intellect. Thinking has its place, but it's a terrible primary strategy for getting unstuck. You don't reason your way into momentum — you move your way into it. Volume creates insight. Making creates feedback. And feedback is what quiets doubt. This episode is about why experimentation isn't a distraction from commitment — it's how commitment is formed. It's about turning down the noise in your head by turning up the work. In today's episode I cover: Why you can't think your way out of a creative rut How action creates clarity faster than analysis Why making more work often leads to better work If you've been waiting to feel "ready" before you move, this episode is a reminder that readiness follows action — not the other way around. Until next time, default to action — and remember: you can't think your way forward.

It's time to speak out for all of us.

Keltie is joined by freelance writer and author of the book, Fed Up: Emotional Labor, Women, and the Way Forward, Gemma Hartley. Their discussion explores...

What does it really take to remove decades of technical debt without breaking the systems that still keep the business running? In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I sit down with Pegasystems leaders Dan Kasun, Head of Global Partner Ecosystem, and John Higgins, Chief of Client and Partner Success, to unpack why legacy modernization has reached a breaking point, and why AI is forcing enterprises to rethink how software is designed, sold, and delivered. Our conversation goes beyond surface-level AI promises and gets into the practical reality of transformation, partner economics, and what actually delivers measurable outcomes. We explore how Pega's AI-powered Blueprint is changing the entry point to enterprise-grade workflows, turning what used to be long, expensive discovery phases into fast, collaborative design moments that business and technology teams can engage with together. Dan and John explain why the old "wrap and renew" approach to legacy systems is quietly compounding technical debt, and why reimagining workflows from the ground up is becoming essential for organizations that want to move toward agentic automation with confidence. The discussion also dives into Pega's deep collaboration with Amazon Web Services, including how tools like AWS Transform and Blueprint work together to accelerate modernization at scale.  We talk candidly about the evolving role of partners, why the idea of partners as an extension of a sales force is outdated, and how marketplaces are reshaping buying, building, and operating enterprise software. Along the way, we tackle some uncomfortable truths about AI hype, technical debt, and why adding another layer of technology rarely fixes the real problem. This is an episode for anyone grappling with legacy systems, skeptical of quick-fix AI strategies, or rethinking how partner ecosystems need to operate in a world where speed, clarity, and accountability matter more than ever. As enterprises move toward multi-vendor, agent-driven environments, are we finally ready to retire legacy thinking along with legacy systems, or are we still finding new ways to delay the inevitable?

24 Wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from this body of death? 25 Thanks be to God through Jesus Christ our Lord! So then, I myself serve the law of God with my mind, but with my flesh I serve the law of sin.There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. 2 For the law of the Spirit of life has set you free in Christ Jesus from the law of sin and death. 3 For God has done what the law, weakened by the flesh, could not do. By sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and for sin, he condemned sin in the flesh, 4 in order that the righteous requirement of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not according to the flesh but according to the Spirit. 5 For those who live according to the flesh set their minds on the things of the flesh, but those who live according to the Spirit set their minds on the things of the Spirit. 6 For to set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace. 7 For the mind that is set on the flesh is hostile to God, for it does not submit to God's law; indeed, it cannot. 8 Those who are in the flesh cannot please God.9 You, however, are not in the flesh but in the Spirit, if in fact the Spirit of God dwells in you. Anyone who does not have the Spirit of Christ does not belong to him. 10 But if Christ is in you, although the body is dead because of sin, the Spirit is life because of righteousness. 11 If the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, he who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit who dwells in you.12 So then, brothers, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live according to the flesh. 13 For if you live according to the flesh you will die, but if by the Spirit you put to death the deeds of the body, you will live.1.     How often do you condemn things, people, yourself? Remember, condemning can be sentencing to death or expressing complete disapproval.2.     Being in Jesus means no condemnation for you. How does that impact you when you really believe that? How often do you mis-translate that into “probation”?3.     Have you experienced grief over sin that led you toward God? What did that look like and how did God meet you?4.     If you are in Jesus then his Spirit dwells in you. How often are you aware that you have the mind of the Spirit, or the mind of Christ (1 Cor. 2)? How can having the Spirit impact your thought patterns, emotions and appetites?5.     What “debt collector” (habit, craving, or fear) keeps knocking at your door, and how might the Spirit's power free you from it?6.     Have you ever felt God's pleasure? Can the truth of you being in Jesus and Jesus being in you free you up to experience his pleasure? How?

Author Judith Enck says there are both real and false solutions to the dire consequences of plastics in our environment and bodies, and the perpetrators are identifiable.

This conversation is raw. It's honest. And it's one of those episodes that I know is going to help a lot of people, especially anyone who's carrying grief and doesn't know what to do with it.In this episode, Brendan and I talk about what it means to lose a brother, especially in a sudden, traumatic way. We talk about the anger that can show up for men, the guilt that older brothers carry, and the feeling that life splits into “before” and “after” the moment you lose your person.Brendan also shares practical strategies—real, usable stuff—for what to do when grief hits you out of nowhere. Not the “time heals all wounds” nonsense. He talks about letting the wave hit, not fighting it, and making “small shifts” in your daily life to keep yourself moving forward when you feel stuck.We also talk about connection—how the relationship doesn't end, it just changes. The rituals, the photos, the texts, the car conversations, all of it. Because pretending it didn't happen isn't strength. It's avoidance. And eventually that pain comes back with interest.Brendan gives the background of what happened in April 2022, and how the legal process stretched the pain out for months and months. We also talk about who Philip was—his energy, his impact, and why the people who lose the “good ones” always seem to ask the same question: why him?I share something I still wrestle with: that feeling of “I should've protected him.” Brendan speaks to that in a way that I think a lot of men need to hear.We talk about how natural those thoughts are, especially for men, and how toxic it becomes if you live there too long.Brendan explains why grief isn't a straight line. Some days are calm. Some days the storm comes back and knocks you over. But the ocean is always there.Brendan shares what he does when that punch-in-the-stomach moment hits:Don't run from itFace itUse photos or memories when you're already in the waveRemind yourself it won't last forever, even if it feels like drowningThis part is huge. Brendan talks about making tiny changes—trying a new place, taking a new route, doing the thing you've been curious about. Not because it fixes grief, but because it keeps you from being trapped in the same mental loop every day.We talk about texting them, talking to them in the car, listening to old voice clips, and how the relationship continues—because for a lot of us, we think about them more now than we ever did when they were here.If you do one thing after listening to this episode: be good to people. You don't know what the person in front of you is carrying.Website: www.BrendanShawGrief.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/brendanshawgriefTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@brendanshawgriefYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@BrendanShawGriefBrendan also shares what he and his family built in Philip's honor: The Phil With Love Foundation, a 501(c)(3) that gives back through scholarships and community impact—supporting domestic violence shelters, animal shelters, food insecurity, youth sports, and more. Their goal is simple: turn pain into something that helps other people.Become Stronger Industries: becomestronger.comFinish the Race Apparel: FTRapparel.comStay in the Fight (Anthony's charity): https://www.stayinthefight.am/If this episode hit home for you, share it with someone who needs it. Someone who's grieving. Someone who's holding it all in. Someone who thinks they have to stay strong by staying silent.And as always—go one step further than you thought you could.See you next time on Building Men.

Trigger warning: This episode includes discussion of infertility, IVF, miscarriage, and pregnancy loss.In this episode, we sit down with Mandy and Cassie Glessner, partners in life for nearly a decade, as they share their deeply personal journey through infertility, IVF, miscarriage, and the grief that comes with being unable to grow their family. With honesty and care, Mandy and Cassie walk us through the clinical realities, emotional toll, and quiet moments of hope and heartbreak that shaped their experience.From navigating a system not built with same-sex couples in mind to redefining what a “happy ending” can look like, Mandy and Cassie remind us that community is built through listening, vulnerability, and showing up for one another, especially when there are no easy answers.

At the start of a new year—or any moment that you decide you want to make a change—it's easy to believe that your motivation and desire to WANT the change is what will sustain you to make it - but we know from New Resolution statistics that motivation fails us every time. Motivation doesn't fail because you're weak, or lack discipline. It fails because there is no system in place. In this episode, Danny and Emily break down why motivation alone keeps families stuck in cycles of hope, disappointment, and exhaustion—and why waiting for your loved one to “want it” is often the most dangerous strategy of all. Using the powerful Buffalo vs. Cow analogy, we explain the difference between: * Waiting for the storm to pass * And walking straight through it with a plan, support, and accountability You'll learn: * Why motivation fades under pressure—and what actually creates change * How families unintentionally train addiction by waiting * What the “Buffalo approach” looks like in real life (not theory) * How to move forward even if your loved one refuses help * Why systems, boundaries, and support matter more than hope alone This episode is for parents, spouses, and families who are tired of bracing for the next crisis—and ready to stop letting addiction set the pace. You don't need more motivation. You need a different strategy.

Conflict, suffering, and global instability aren't framed as failures of the system here, they're revealed as catalysts for awakening, testing whether we respond with fear or clarity.We also address why spiritual bypassing keeps people stuck, how vulnerability functions as a stabilizing force rather than a weakness, and why embodiment — not dissociation — is required for real spiritual maturity.If you've felt unsure how to stay grounded, this episode offers clarity.You'll Learn:[00:00] Introduction[02:22] What vulnerability reveals about transformation in the present[08:44] Alec's dream about his grandfather revealed the movement from 3rd to 4th density consciousness[15:19] The Buddha in Red Face story[21:11] Integrating masculine and feminine energies increases the strength of both rather than diminishing either[32:52] When Edmund discovered The Law of One[42:53] The eight densities of consciousness [53:01] Practicing love during division without falling into spiritual bypassing[01:10:01] Why those in service to self are actually serving us by offering opportunities to choose love[01:20:05] How the veil of forgetting and free will allow us to remember our true nature as creators[01:43:58] Distinguishing your own essence from external noise through stillness and Steiner's practices[01:57:35] Why true forgiveness becomes unnecessary when we understand our projections[02:17:16] Why we cannot return to tribal ways and must move forward with new forms of conscious community[02:39:30] What the Germanic and Slavic epochs reveal about humanity's progression from individual thinking to soul-warmed communityRelated The Way Forward Episodes:Beyond Verbal Autists, Telepathy & The Nature Of Thought with Melissa Jolly Graves | YouTubeSoulstice Magic, 13 Holy Nights & Neurogenic Qigong featuring Lara Day | YouTubeMemoirs of a Child Sex Slave: Quest For Love featuring Anneke Lucas | YoutubeResources Mentioned:Law of One | WebsiteBe Here Farm + Nature | WebsiteBeing Human Event | WebsiteBuddha in Redface by Eduardo Duran | BookTranscendent Sex by Jenny Wade | BookThe Red Lion by Maria Szepes | BookMutant Message Down Under by Marlo Morgan | Book or AudiobookClick here to enroll in the 2026 season of Being Human.

In this conversation, we trace how a kid from Wichita cleaning skyscraper windows and making bass music ended up reverse-engineering reality itself — through sound, geometry, water, and ancient temple science.We get into how slowing down animal calls exposes a shared structure in communication; why the Kogi, bees, and birds might be using channels humans have forgotten; and how noise, screens, and stress have muted senses we were born with. From Machu Picchu and Angkor Wat to Egyptian pyramids and Gothic cathedrals, Tyler lays out why these sites look less like “monuments” and more like consciousness-amplifying technology built from water, gold, plasma, and sacred geometry.You'll Learn:[00:00:00] Introduction[00:09:53] The music production trick that revealed how all animals speak the same language[00:13:14] How bees and plants communicate through the electromagnetic spectrum[00:14:14] Our natural antennas have been snipped[00:21:00] Why Tyler stopped asking "how did they build the pyramids" and started asking "what mindset did it require"[00:25:39] How Egyptian temples functioned as a university including one where initiates had to swim through alligator pits[00:30:46] What Tyler believes the true purpose of the pyramids is[00:40:30] We stopped building resonance structures to live in and started building soulless boxes[00:50:55] The lost temple science that tuned human senses and served as portals to communicate with the divine[01:17:42] Why the ancients prioritized water and gold, and how humans serve as the conduit between them[01:40:32] Why Angkor Wat looks like a giant circuit board designed for non-human intelligence communications[01:46:42] Ancient aliens theory is actually a psyop that diminishes human potentialResources Mentioned:Cryptex Esoterica by Tyler Engle | BookCodex Esoterica by Tyler Engle | BookThe Geomatrix by Tyler Engle | BookThe Secret History of the World by Mark Booth | Book or AudiobookMutant Message Down Under by Marlo Morgan | Book or AudiobookKybalion by The Three Initiates | BookThe Way Forward episode on Beyond Verbal Autists, Telepathy & The Nature Of Thought with Melissa Jolly Graves | YouTubeThe Way Forward episode on Thought, Light & The Liquid Language of God with Veda Austin | YouTubeUnlock the full spectrum of ancient wisdom and modern insight with Tyler's Esoteric Mastery Suite.

For 35 years, Mark Singer owned an independent financial planning firm, Safe Harbor Retirement Planning, in the Boston area, a Commonwealth Financial Network affiliate. During that time, he was living life at full speed—running three businesses, exercising, playing golf, boating, spending time with grandchildren—until he had a life-changing stroke in October 2022. He lost his ability to speak, swallow, eat and perform the most basic functions. His recovery forced him to slow down and retire from the business earlier than he expected. In this episode of The Healthy Advisor, host Diana Britton talks with Mark Singer, a retired financial advisor, about how the stroke reshaped his view of success and identity. His story points to the strength of resilience, perspective and compassion, both in business and in life. Diana and Mark discuss: Mark's journey from textile manufacturing to founding Safe Harbor Retirement Planning in Boston The moment the stroke upended his life, and how he figured out a way forward Mark's mantra of “focus on the what is, not the what if.” How things played out with his financial planning business The role of friendships, community and client relationships in his recovery Lessons learned from 35 years as an advisor Resources: Listen to The Healthy Advisor on WealthManagement.com Subscribe and listen to The Healthy Advisor on Apple Podcasts Subscribe and listen to The Healthy Advisor on Spotify Connect With Mark Singer: LinkedIn: Mark Singer mark55retire@gmail.com  Connect with WealthManagement.com: WealthManagement.com LinkedIn: Diana Britton diana.britton@informa.com LinkedIn: Informa LinkedIn: WealthManagement About Our Guest: Author Mark Singer has been recognized for his vision and creativity within the world of financial planning.

The conversation unpacks why identity politics has become such a powerful force, how Christians can disentangle their core identity from political tribes, and why social identity theory helps explain today's polarization. Dr. Yancey also discusses his research on Christianophobia, the limits of both conservative and progressive models, and how a Christ-centered identity offers a more honest path forward than culture-war loyalty.Additional ResourcesDr. Yancey's YouTube channel: Shattering ParadigmsSociology Department at Baylor University (contact): https://www.baylor.edu/sociology/Guest BioDr. George Yancey is a sociologist and professor at Baylor University whose work focuses on race, social identity, anti-Christian bias, and the intersection of faith and culture.

This week we speak with noted congenital cardiologist Professor Krishna Kumar of the Amrita Institute in Cochin, India and discuss his recent work on inequities in congenital heart care in the world. Over 90% of patients with CHD do not have access to care in the globe today. What is the path forward to improve this sobering statistic? How can a World Health Assembly resolution practically help improve care in LMIC countries worldwide? Dr. Kumar shares his deep insights.This week we also briefly note the passing of the wonderful and caring pediatric cardiologist Dr. Sangeetha Viswanathan of Chennai, India who tragically died suddenly this week while attending the World Congress events in Hong Kong. Dr. Kumar's words regarding his friend, former fellow and colleague are read in remembrance of this wonderful and giving cardiologist whose loss will be deeply felt by her patients, family and friends. DOI: 10.1016/j.jacc.2025.07.070

When Abingdon sat at a 99s Christmas dinner in 2006, she thought she was just celebrating her new private pilot certificate. Instead, she discovered a gap no watch company was willing to fill: pilot watches built for women. Within hours she set herself an 11-month deadline to design, fund, and deliver a watch that didn't exist yet. That deadline became the seed of The Abingdon Co., now an 18-year-old brand serving women across aviation and STEM. In this conversation, Shaesta and Abingdon walk through the full arc: from a 14-year-old chasing free pizza at a high school career talk, to getting a pilot certificate in 34 days, to preselling $400 watches off CGI renderings before a single unit existed. Abingdon explains why you can't wait for “perfect,” why she swears by “trip your way forward,” and how saying yes to an imperfect start changed her entire path in aviation. They also dig into the reality behind the highlight reel of entrepreneurship—caregiving, near-shutdown moments, investors, and what it looks like to keep a promise to customers when life blows up. Abingdon talks candidly about stepping away to become her father's full-time caregiver, the pressure to close the company, and why she refused to quit while thousands of women were still wearing her watches. From there, the conversation zooms out: Gen Z as the most entrepreneurial generation yet, where product ideas really come from, and why aviation desperately needs people who can see a problem and build anything better—whether it's a watch, a system, or an entire mindset around mental health and aeromedical reform. Abingdon also shares her view of aviation in 2035, from autonomous air vehicles and drone logistics to why analog watches are growing in a world of smart devices. If you're a young innovator wondering where you fit in aviation—or someone sitting on an idea you don't feel “ready” to launch—this episode is a playbook on starting before you're comfortable, serving a niche the industry ignores, and staying human in a career that loves to put people on pedestals.

Derived from hemp and raised in the Bluegrass, these Commonwealth drinks are an alcohol alternative that are sweeping the nation for those who are looking to change up their evening pours. I'll be tasting the Peach Iced Tea AND the Salted Watermelon flavors, putting them through the paces of Nose, Palate, Finish, and Price, per the usual parameters of the podcast, and seeing how they shake out.

This is an audio essay from my Process This substack. In it, I reflect on Alfred North Whitehead and what he can teach us about religion in our time. You see, Whitehead didn't see religion as just doctrines or institutions—he understood it as a creative force that connects our deepest ideals with the passion that actually moves us to act in the world. And here's what's beautiful: he shows us that the divine isn't a force that dominates or controls, but a gentle invitation woven through all of reality, calling us toward truth, beauty, and goodness. We're not passive recipients of this, we're active partners, and every act of kindness, every moment of genuine connection actually adds something real to the universe that wouldn't exist without us. The real transformation in history, whether it's been the Civil Rights Movement or the climate movement today, happens not through force and domination, but through the slower, harder, more beautiful path of persuasion—changing hearts and minds one person at a time. And here's what gives me hope: nothing we do in love is ever lost. It all becomes part of this larger story of the universe moving toward wholeness. So in this post-religious age, we desperately need this capacity to be moved by beauty and called by goodness. The question isn't what we believe, it's whether we'll let ourselves be caught up in this larger movement of love.

I share two of my own stories – the rash that kept showing up on the right side of my face, and the colon scare that hit during one of the angriest seasons of my life – and how both matched this framework with borderline uncomfortable precision.If you've ever been told your symptoms are random, mysterious, or “just stress,” this conversation offers a very different lens.You'll Learn:[00:00:00] Introduction[00:08:22] Your symptoms are always telling the truth[00:11:04] Dr. Hamer's devastating loss, testicular cancer and the creation of the First Biological Law[00:18:55] What a real conflict shock is and why it's more than just being stressed out[00:25:11] The Five Biological Laws[01:06:29] The arrogance of not respecting, trusting and understanding nature's design[01:18:27] Why Ted Kaczynski's early separation trauma explains his later violent patterns[01:24:15] What happens when territorial anger and identity conflict strike at the same time[01:30:44] Brain layers, hormones, and hierarchy biology[01:44:49] How does our belief impact our physiology and symptoms?[02:02:15] Why doesn't everyone who experiences the same conflict develop symptoms?[02:23:13] Why seizures happen according to German New Medicine[02:37:22] Why do young babies get sick?[02:39:20] Can belief override or amplify the physical effects of harmful or beneficial substances?[02:46:22] Your body is infinitely adaptable, if you're relaxed[02:56:34] Is German New Medicine truly a universal biological law?[03:00:55] What to do when you can't figure out what the conflict was that is causing your symptoms[03:04:30] How to actually resolve your conflicts & why are there some conflicts you might not want to resolve?[03:09:26] When the healing phase would be too intense, surgery is still a good option[03:41:23] How your internal story shapes whether you lean into victimhood or transformation[03:43:29] Similarities between Traditional Chinese Medicine and German New Medicine[03:49:17] What allergies really are[03:59:01] Bringing conflicts into consciousness can offer immediate resolution[04:00:12] Detective work stories of deciphering conflicts and symptoms[04:12:52] Why forcing healing doesn't workResources Mentioned:The Way Forward episode on German New Medicine with Dr. Melissa Sell | Apple or SpotifyDr. Hamer | WebsiteGHK Self Study Bundle | WebsiteUse discount code TWF50 and save $50 off Melissa's course The Bio-Logical Woman starting February 2026.Find more from Dr. Melissa:Dr. Melissa Sell | WebsiteDr. Melissa Sell | YouTubeDr. Melissa Sell | FacebookDr. Melissa Sell | InstagramDr. Melissa Sell | XFind more from Alec:Alec Zeck | InstagramAlec Zeck | XThe Way Forward | InstagramThe Way Forward is Sponsored By:RMDY Academy & Collective: Homeopathy Made AccessibleHigh-quality remedies and training to support natural healing.

In this episode, I sit down with Tristan Scott, an electrical engineer turned health researcher who's helping build healthier technology at Daylight Computer. He bridges two worlds that rarely meet: the precision of electrical engineering and the intuition of human biology. And what he's discovered is that our digital tools might be draining more than just our attention. We explore why grounding and sunlight matter more than most people realize, what really happens when EMFs meet the body's own electrical system, and why "energy efficiency" might be costing us our health. Tristan is designing tech that respects human circadian biology instead of hijacking it at Daylight Computer. Because our bodies are already electrical systems, the question is whether we're working with that power or against it.

Rage at a racist, a double middle-finger "protest," and a bhakti yogi wondering, "Did I actually help… or just lose it?" From there, this episode dives into how good ethics—when cut loose from wisdom traditions—can quietly mutate into the very hatred they're meant to oppose. Broadcasting this Q&A epeisode from a quiet village in India,  Raghunath and Kaustubha explore how yogi can confront injustice, racism, and toxic ideology without being swallowed by anger, tribalism, or self-righteousness. Then the conversation widens: why do so many cultures have elaborate "Books of the Dead" while the Bhagavad-gītā boils it all down to the essense of "just remember Kṛṣṇa"? ********************************************************************* LOVE THE PODCAST?

Mollie explains how 170,000 farms have vanished in eight years, how the U.S. became a food importer, and why true freedom starts with reconnecting to the land. Together they explore practical solutions, from SNAP reform to supporting local farmers, and what it means to build resilience through discomfort, family, and community.   For more details, links, timestamps and resources mentioned in this episode, visit our website: https://thewayfwrd.com/content/   Resources & Links Website: https://www.sovereigntyranch.com/ Book: Debunked by Nature: https://bookstore.acresusa.com/products/debunked-by-nature?sca_ref=9461068.hEVsCatgGxefjfjK Debunked by Nature — Official Site: https://debunkedbynature.com Acres USA YouTube Channel: https://m.youtube.com/@AcresUSAvideos/featured  Related Links Joel Hollingsworth — "The American Restoration" Letter: https://www.smokeriverranch.com/the-american-restoration-fixing-agriculture-in-america Black Box Thinking – Book Reference: https://www.amazon.com/Black-Box-Thinking-People-Mistakes-But/dp/1591848229    The Way Forward podcast is sponsored by:   New Biology Clinic: Redefine Health from the Ground Up Experience tailored terrain-based health services with consults, livestreams, movement classes, and more.

After years in "patriot law" circles that led to DOJ and IRS lawsuits, Andrew discovered equity jurisprudence, an ancient system based on honor and responsibility. He explains how this approach helped him dismiss felony charges, clear IRS liens, and find peace through lawful remedy.
