Have you heard of the upcoming WDA2024 off-country conference from Dec 1-6? In less than 2 months the annual international WDA conference is coming up. It will take place in Australia's capital, Canberra, from Dec 1-6.Australia! Sounds great, you might think. But that may not be in the budget right now. Fear not! We have you covered. This year's conference will come in two ways: an on-country version, which will be in person on Australian soil, and an off-country part which will be held online. Both conferences will be interwoven, yet separate events. Tired of online conferences? Longing for personal connection? Well, we got you covered there as well. The off-country country conference will be very different to everything you have experienced before. Think, coverage of the Olympics, replacing sports with science and personal stories in wildlife health. The participants won't just share their research, they will also share their personal experiences along their career path. And you can be a part of it! Our host Cat Vendl chats with the organizing committee of off-country WDA2024, a group of 7 early to mid-career wildlife health academics (including our host Cat) from 5 continents.

Today I am excited to have Darron Marzolf of Falling River Meats, a 4th generation butcher from the Puget Sound. We discuss the history of the butcher business in his family, how things have changed since his family started, and how small farmers can work better with local butchers. We then dive deep into a fun conversation about various cuts of beef and pork that have many different names based on the cut itself, culture and more. You will laugh and I hope learn a lot about why partnering with the right butcher can make a big difference on your farm. SHOW NOTES Tell me the history of the butcher business in your family How have things changed since your family started? Discuss the difference between WDA and USDA slaughterhouse facilities How can the small farmer work better with guys like you? Walk us through the classic butcher of a beef and a pig. What are a few differences between US style butchering of these animals and other cultures? What are the “butcher cuts” and how have they changed over the years When a family buys a share of beef or pork, they are getting cuts that seem to have been forgotten over time, cuts like chuck roast, eye of the round, country style ribs (pork) and so on. Why did that happen and what do you tell people on how to cook them especially for a mid week real-life meal. When you cut open a beef or pork, what are you looking for? How do you know that the beef or pork was raised well? What would you like to tell us small farmers who are trying to reengage homestead practices? We want to feed our own families and raise some food for others in our community, how can we be different from the big slaughterhouses?

This year's international WDA conference in Canberra, Australia, is preceded by a series of webinars to familiarize the WDA community with the concept behind the conference. This conference will differ quite a bit from the conventional. One of the new concepts introduced will be the special presentation style applied through-out the conference. There will be no complicated figures, equations, or data tables. Presenters will showcase their work via story telling or through the arts. Sounds easier said than done. This episode's guest is here to help.Nigel Sutton is the Director of Creative Learning and Audience Engagement of NDS Productions and the presenter of the pre-conference workshop on knowledge and storytelling, coming up on June 3.

In this first Wildlife Health Talks episode of 2024, we are taking you back to the very beginning, back to the year of 1951, when 28 US and Canadian wildlife biologists at the 16th North American Wildlife Conference in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, founded the Wildlife Disease Committee.Only one year later, in 1952 the Committee was renamed to, you might have guessed it, the Wildlife Disease Association. The WDA was born. And one of the WDA's founding fathers and first elected president was the wildlife biologist, Dr Carlton Herman. For the first time on this podcast, our host Dr Cat Vendl has a whole bunch of guests to chat with about Carlton Herman and what drove him back in the days to found the WDA, a pretty visionary organization back then. After all, in the 1950s One Health was less than in its infancy. Cat chats with three of Carlton's sons, two of his colleagues, Ed Addison and Tom Yuill, and the WDA's very own Executive Manager, Peri Wolff.

Welcome to Episode 37 of the Profitable Web Designer Podcast, where we're committed to helping web designers to stop undercharging, overdelivering, overworking, overworking and create profitable, sustainable web design businesses. I'm Shannon Mattern, your host and founder of the Web Designer Academy where we teach the business side of running a web design business, and if you wanna make a consistent, full-time income as a web designer but you're struggling with things like pricing, boundaries, mindset and marketing and you're EXHAUSTED from going it alone… well, my friend, you're in the right place. Love the show? Tap here to leave us a rating and review! This week I'm talking with Rob Howard about increasing diversity and normalizing sustainability in web design! Rob Howard is the founder of HDC, a digital agency headquartered in Denver, Colorado. His team is behind one of the most popular WordPress newsletters out there, Master WP, and they're also the creators of EveryAlt, which is a new AI powered tool that instantly creates accurate alt text for your images. Key takeaways from my chat with Rob: Prioritizing mental health and sustainability in the workplace, and ultimately deconstructing the rigidity of corporate structure creates trust and balance among employees. Be proactive in making the change you want to see, building your company based on transparency and rewarding talent and skills for retention. The gender gap can be at play when negotiating rates even if we don't realize it because of social constructs. Taking small, uncomfortable steps is a great way to take risks while validating your product and moving up the ladder with your pricing without devaluing your work. There's no set pricing for web design, so you get to determine where you want to be based on where your skills are at and the scope of work. Your pricing can change based on the client - not everyone has to pay the same amount for different projects. We also talk about how Rob: Grew a team out of wanting more freedom to be available for his family and based his company around the environment he would want to work in and enjoy being a part of, rather than copying the corporate culture he wanted to escape early in his career. Built his company around breaking down barriers to equity through recognizing that he could use his agency within his own sphere to invest in diversity in the industry rather than perpetuate the "tech bro" culture. Created an AI plug-in called EveryAlt for generating accessible alt text for images to help websites be ADA compliant. Uses value-based marketing to grow and engage with his audience and inspire change.

Welcome to Episode 36 of the Profitable Web Designer Podcast, where we're committed to helping web designers to stop undercharging, overdelivering, overworking, overworking and create profitable, sustainable web design businesses. I'm Shannon Mattern, your host and founder of the Web Designer Academy where we teach the business side of running a web design business, and if you wanna make a consistent, full-time income as a web designer but you're struggling with things like pricing, boundaries, mindset and marketing and you're EXHAUSTED from going it alone… well, my friend, you're in the right place. Love the show? Tap here to leave us a rating and review! In this week's episode I'm chatting with WDA student Angela Bamford about how she gained the confidence to raise her web design project prices from $1,500 to $10k! Angela Bamford is the owner of AB Designs, a UK-based web design agency that specializes in helping business owners reach the next level in their business. She left a career as a commercial buyer to start her web design and development business six years ago, and joined the Web Designer Academy in 2022 to learn how to confidently raise her prices while working fewer hours. 3 key lessons from our chat: Having a strong why - being around for her 6 year old son - pushed her to keep going despite a rough first 12 months in business. Your skills are valuable right now as they are. You're worth so much more than you think and getting a start on the business end will only allow you to increase your prices as you develop your skills further. When the core problem is pricing, you make assumptions about what they can afford before they even object. Stay out of your client's wallets! “By saying yes to everyone, I'm closing doors to my ideal client coming in who I want to work with. It's fine for people to say no, we wouldn't have been a good fit.” - Angela Bamford We also talk about how Angela: Gave up a high salary career to pursue a web design business with no back up plan because it forced her to go all in rather than use it as a side hustle. Actually faced more success with charging higher prices than failure which ultimately grew her confidence to continue. Got over her fear of selling by diving into the marketing outreach method taught in the Web Designer Academy to build relationships and help those people by adding value.

Welcome to Episode 35 of the Profitable Web Designer Podcast, where we're committed to helping web designers to stop undercharging, overdelivering, overworking, overworking and create profitable, sustainable web design businesses. I'm Shannon Mattern, your host and founder of the Web Designer Academy where we teach the business side of running a web design business, and if you wanna make a consistent, full-time income as a web designer but you're struggling with things like pricing, boundaries, mindset and marketing and you're EXHAUSTED from going it alone… well, my friend, you're in the right place. Love the show? Tap here to leave us a rating and review! In this week's episode I'm chatting with WDA student Racheal Graham about growing a sustainable web design business to be your own boss! Racheal Graham is the web designer and tech strategist behind Greenhouse Creative, where she helps her clients create businesses that fit into their lives rather than having their lives run by their business. She started her web design business in 2018 as a side hustle and quickly realized she could have the freedom she desired by taking it full time. 3 takeaways from my chat with Racheal: Committing to running your own business in service of the life you want to lead is a choice you make - it doesn't have to put you under pressure. Put yourself in situations where you're the only web designer in the room, and you'll attract clients simply by answering their questions rather than selling yourself. You don't have to be an expert or know every little thing to succeed - just being willing to figure it out along the way is enough. We also talk about how Racheal: Went from charging an hourly rate with an employee mindset to charging $10k for initial projects while streamlining her packages to simplify her process while providing immense value. Gained mindset, knowledge, and confidence to leave her 6-figure salary to pursue her web design business full-time as the primary earner in her family after working in the Web Designer Academy. Paid herself more in Q1 of 2023 than she earned from her net income from her salaried job in Q1 of 2022.

Love the show? Tap here to leave us a rating and review! In this week's episode I'm sharing a live call for Web Designer Academy students about how to get web design clients! 3 key takeaways from this episode: 9/10 times it's not a tactical problem, it's a mindset problem - identify your mindtrash and you'll start seeing results. How you think in the moments when nothing seems to be working will determine the results you'll get in the future. Failure is part of the process. You have to be willing to be bad at first and troubleshoot the process to figure out what's in your control to fix. I also share: The exact questions to ask yourself to identify your mindtrash and also when you don't close a sale so you can make tweaks for the next time. Why expecting success without failure will keep you stuck. How all the reasons you think you're not getting clients might subtly be affecting the way you market, respond to clients, etc. to work against you.

Love the show? Tap here to leave us a rating and review! In this week's episode I'm sharing my keynote presentation from the 2023 Simply Profitable Designer Summit where I reveal 4 shifts we're currently seeing in the web design industry and how you can leverage them! 3 key takeaways from the presentation: Just because a business already has a website doesn't mean they don't need your services. Every few years they need to keep up with the shifting marketing landscape and make updates. We can only control our own thoughts and actions in any economic environment. We can't control outcomes, not even the outcomes of our actions, but we can control our effort and persistence. There's no such thing as a “better time” to go all in on your business. The best time is always now. I also talk about: Why businesses need websites now more than ever despite a growing number of social media and product sales platforms. How to calculate value and why value is always more important than price. Why things that used to work are no longer working and how that change is your best friend as a web designer.

Love the show? Tap here to leave us a rating and review! In this week's episode I'm chatting with WDA student Caitlin Harrison about the mindset work that has to happen behind the business! Caitlin Harrison is a web designer with years of experience in print publication and magazine design. She started Caitlin Harrison Creative in 2020 to find more purpose in her work outside an office and spend more time with her son. After joining the Web Designer Academy in 2021, she now works full time as a web designer and has raised her rates to actually make a sustainable income and profit. 3 key takeaways from my chat with Caitlin: Marketing can be as simple as reaching out to people and telling them you're a web designer. It's all the stuff that comes up around it that we work on in the Web Designer Academy. Raised her prices after seeing how much value she was actually giving away without considering the ROI her client would get from it. Your prices are a reflection of the value you create, not you selling yourself. "The first thought in your head is always whatever society has told you, and then you have to listen to the second one.” - Caitlin Harrison We also talk about how Caitlin: Started her business from a place of understanding that she had a skill not everyone else does and people need that skill. Shifted from the employee mindset of having a team to bounce ideas off of and sign off on them to learning to trust herself as the one solely responsible for the end product. Joined Web Designer Academy to grow a sustainable business rather than bounce from project to project as a freelancer.

Love the show? Tap here to leave us a rating and review! In this week's episode I'm diving into some behind the scenes of the Simply Profitable Designer Summit! 3 lessons from this episode: You don't always have to follow the pack. You can build your own table to sit at and invite your best clients to sit at it. There are SO many creative ways to authentically build those relationships without having to always be the expert. When you find yourself dreading a certain task, it's probably because you're making it mean something about you personally, rather than what you give. I also breakdown: The different stages of business and what challenges I see web designers face at each level. The feelings that came up for me around acquiring the Simply Profitable Designer Summit and the responsibility I felt for taking over the experience of attendees.

Love the show? Tap here to leave us a rating and review! In this week's episode I'm chatting with WDA student Kate Newnham about seeking support from a mentor to confidently grow your web design business! Kate Newnham is the owner of Up Designs LA, where she helps health and wellness businesses create professional, memorable, and awe-inspiring online presences that represent their true value so they can help more people live happier, healthier, and longer lives. "I thought, ‘no one will ever pay 10k for a website.' But doing it anyway, and then when someone bought it, and two people bought it, was like, ‘oh wow, this is possible!'" - Kate Newnham 3 key takeaways from my chat with Kate: There's no shame in asking for help. Seek out a mentor who has done what you desire to do and lean on them for support to get to the next level. Traits that work in the corporate world don't always translate well into running your own business. Set boundaries with your clients so that you can serve from a place of joy, which ultimately lends itself to delivering a better product. "Take the bold move first and then wait for the result.” - Kate Newnham We also talk about how Kate: Started her business as a side gig while she was searching for a “real” job, and only once she realized the freedom and flexibility of not having a set schedule did she take it seriously. Identified that the times she's been most successful are the times when she's had consistent support, which led her to join the Web Designer Academy. Learned to recognize her unique set of skills brought value to the client and was worth premium prices.

Welcome to Episode 28 of the Profitable Web Designer Podcast, where we're committed to helping web designers to stop undercharging, overdelivering, overworking, overworking and create profitable, sustainable web design businesses. I'm Shannon Mattern, your host and founder of the Web Designer Academy where we teach the business side of running a web design business, and if you wanna make a consistent, full-time income as a web designer but you're struggling with things like pricing, boundaries, mindset and marketing and you're EXHAUSTED from going it alone… well, my friend, you're in the right place. Love the show? Tap here to leave us a rating and review! In this week's episode I'm chatting with WDA student Courtney Wilson about how she tailored the WDA curriculum to grow her web design business! Courtney started her web design business, Moonsoar, with her husband after both got downsized from their jobs within a year of each other. Since then, they have grown a successful web design company through word of mouth and delivering a premium product. Through her time at the Web Designer Academy, she's restructured how she offers services and has raised her package prices by 50%! “It felt like I wasn't giving my clients the attention they needed, but then I realized that every time I'm taken out of my workflow it takes me longer to get back into it - whatever I was working on - than if I had just worked through and answered my voicemail later." - Courtney Wilson 3 key takeaways from my chat with Courtney: There's no right or wrong way to do something; you have to find what you will do consistently and make it your own. Creating boundaries can serve your clients as well as yourself. Word of mouth is incredibly powerful. Sometimes the best marketing plan is simply telling people what you do and fostering relationships - eventually you'll be top of mind when someone needs your services! "It was never luck and it took somebody saying to me 'you do a lot of hard work and that's how you've gotten to where you are'." - Courtney Wilson We also talk about how Courtney: Started getting clients from a social media networking event - that she attended with no intention of getting business! Raised her prices immediately after the first presentation she saw from Shannon when she realized how much value she provided her clients. Structured her boundaries from a place of service that helped her clients in the long run while also giving her more freedom.

Love the show? Tap here to leave us a rating and review! This week I'm answering one of the most frequently asked questions I get - should you put your web design pricing on your website? In this episode I talk all about: My own personal journey with talking about pricing, starting with deprogramming that employee mindset, packaging my services to not seem “too expensive”, and what ultimately shifted my mindset around raising my prices. How my low prices were actually repelling the very clients I was trying to attract. Common reasons people don't put pricing on their website and what you might believe about your own prices that keeps you undercharging or underselling. Which philosophy we teach in the Web Designer Academy and why. 3 key takeaways from this episode: Focus on positioning your services and the value you deliver, not the price. If you believe your prices are too expensive, your marketing, sales conversations, and even follow ups will reflect that. Decide to believe that people can afford your services and the value you provide, and you'll start to find those clients that are willing to pay for your services.

Welcome to Episode 26 of the Profitable Web Designer Podcast, where we're committed to helping web designers to stop undercharging, overdelivering, overworking, overworking and create profitable, sustainable web design businesses.

Love the show? Tap here to leave us a rating and review! In this week's episode I'm chatting with Lauren Newton about why she decided to invest in her business and how she broke free from the employee mindset! Lauren has 14 years of web experience, and after 5 years of freelance SEO, she joined the WDA in 2021 to add a secondary web design layer to her business. In the time since she joined, she went from charging $1500 for a month's work to creating a pricing strategy that was actually sustainable based on her skills! “Running your own business, in a way, is like buying an IKEA desk and having to put it together with no instructions... Having a program that's there for you is like the instruction manual you need to be successful.” - Lauren Newton Key takeaways from my chat with Lauren: Anything you take consistent action on will work. There are a million different ways to tackle a goal, but you need to find what aligns with you. Impostor syndrome tags along with each new level you reach in your business, but it's still possible to have a successful web design business with it. Technology, strategy, and platforms are constantly evolving, which means everyone is winging it. You don't have to have a massive chart of experience or feel super established to be qualified. “I had to realize I'm an expert and accept that I know what I'm doing, I'm good at what I do, and I can bring value to people… I am the person I want to be.” - Lauren Newton We also talk about how Lauren: Felt unsettled by losing the comfort zone of having a day job, where the only validation she needed was in getting the job itself versus owning a business where getting a new client doesn't always carry the same weight. Joined WDA because she saw Shannon as someone who had once been in her shoes and accomplished what Lauren herself wanted to do and was now teaching others to do the same, which stood out from other business coaches. Made one small shift in her positioning which completely changed the type of ideal client she was attracting.

Love the show? Tap here to leave us a rating and review! This week we're wrapping part 2 of my 2022 year in review with a look at how I was my own biggest obstacle! In this episode I'm digging into: Why putting so much pressure on myself to replace my husband's income actually backfired. How I completely overhauled a side of my business that I wasn't fully committed AND my branding to as a stress response. How I “doomscrolled” my way into questioning my business without any evidence of a real problem. Key lessons I'm taking away from 2022: When the anxiety and sweaty palms kick in, that's when it's time to slow down and look at the big picture rather than get caught up in the details. Prioritizing my mindset over hustle and numbers not only serves me better, but my students and business as a whole. Focus on the things that actually bring joy and income, instead of worrying about what other people might think.

Cat chats with Dr Peri Wolff who has been the WDA's executive manager since 2019. Few people know about Peri's adventurous past. She used to treat film stars and made sure the wolves, monkeys and tigers were up for the job when the stage lights came on. Wild animals are her passion, but pot-bellied pigs are her secret treat. Besides holding the WDA together, Peri looks after the pet pigs of Los Angeles and surroundings. Some of her patients play the piano, have learned how to deal with emergency scenarios and sleep in their owners' bed. And Peri just can't get enough of them. She might not want to hear it, but I believe she is a true pig whisperer.https://www.wildlifedisease.org/PersonifyEbusiness/About-Us/Our-People/Executive-Management

In this episode, Jeannette talks to the entrepreneur and rugby star Paul Thorburn, who played 300 matches for Neath and 37 international matches for Wales, 10 of them as captain. He holds the record for the longest successful kick in an international test match. He gained the record during the 1986 Five Nations Championship at Cardiff Arms Park against Scotland. His penalty kick measured exactly 64.2 metres. He explains the role that having a winning mindset had in his sporting success and how he has applied what he learned while playing rugby to the world of business. Paul shares the details of his journey through life, so far. Including, how despite initially failing his A levels he resat and passed them so that he could attend Swansea university. There he got access to high-level coaching, which enabled him to excel at the sport he loved. Paul also explains how he prepared himself to become a successful entrepreneur and business consultant once his sporting career was over. KEY TAKEAWAYS Being in the right place at the right time plays a role in a successful career. But you have to recognise and take the opportunities. Team sport benefits people in many ways. You form strong, long-lasting relationships with your teammates. Having a winning mindset only produces results if you are disciplined about your training and preparation. Analysing your performance is an essential component of personal growth. Put any personal differences with team members aside and respect them. Employing experts to take care of different aspects of your business is vital. If you have an aspiration, go for it. Be true to yourself and give people the respect you would like to receive yourself. BEST MOMENTS ‘You make your own luck. ´ ‘Neath was the first (rugby) club to start having individual performance analysis.' ‘I apply the same (business) principles, regardless of my clients sector. A business is a business.' This is the perfect time to get focused on what YOU want to really achieve in your business, career, and life. It's never too late to be BRAVE and BOLD and unlock your inner BRILLIANCE.

He spent his childhood in various RAF Stations across England and was educated in a boarding school. He went on to study Microbiology at Swansea University. At that stage in his life, his main focus was his rugby career. He played 300 matches for Neath and went on to play for the Welsh national team 37 times. Including captaining the Welsh team on 10 occasions. After graduating he started work with a security business, but within 18 months then moved into a sector to use my qualifications and I started working for Glaxo Pharmaceuticals in a business development role, promoting their range of pharmaceutical products to the GPs and Pharmacists in South Wales. In 1991, he joined the Welsh Development Agency (WDA). A Government funded quango, tasked with attracting investment projects into Wales. His role, as one of the Project Managers, was to assist in securing foreign direct investment into Wales – these organisations included automotive component manufacturers, consumer electronics manufacturers, biotechnology companies, service industries and financial institutions. After a 5-year career with the WDA, John was then appointed Tournament Director for the 1999 Rugby World Cup Tournament, my role here was to deliver the World's largest International Rugby Tournament. This one was the first one to be staged following the decision to make rugby a professional sport. Wales was the official host Nation, but the 42 International matches were spread across Wales, England, Scotland, Ireland, and France, with the Opening Ceremony, the Opening match and the Final taking place at the New Millennium Stadium. As Tournament Director, John´s role was to put the event together, delivering the venues, training grounds, the hotels for participants and all the Officials, the team, and the official logistics programme, including overseas travel for the Teams, Officials; the medical provision; the Ceremonies and Official functions during the 7-week event. This was a 4-year contract, which ended in March 2000, on completion of the Tournament reports and reconciliation of the Tournament finances and distribution of the monies to the hosting Unions. After 4 years working as an Executive Search and Selection Consultant, recruiting senior Execs into Public and Private sector roles, John returned to the professional world of rugby. He joined the Welsh Rugby Union as a Special Projects Manager, a role which included working on the pre-event preparations for the 2007 Rugby World Cup, and assisting the Official Hosts, France in delivering the event. As well as overusing the Commercial programme for the Welsh Rugby Union, securing sponsorship for International events, as well sponsorship for the domestic rugby programme in Wales, also securing and managing the Licensing programme – merchandise etc. In 2006, John was appointed Strategic Development Manager for the Ospreys, one of the professional rugby clubs in Wales. In essence, he oversaw the commercial programme for the club, securing sponsorship, and all other income generation activities. In 2010, John left the world of rugby, setting up his own Business Development consultancy, where he works alongside a handful of diverse organisations, assisting them in securing contracts with private and/or public sector clients, working in the construction, financial services, telecoms, and recruitment arenas. John is also the Secretary of Cardiff Business Club, one of the longest established clubs in the UK, which has HRH The Prince of Wales as its patron.

Pierwszą żoną Dawida miała zostać starsza córka króla Saula o imieniu Merab. W zasadzie Saul nie chciał chyba mu dać swojej córki, po prostu chciał, aby go Filistyni zabili. W 1 Samuela 18:17 czytamy: “rzekł Saul do Dawida: Oto najstarsza moja córka Merab; dam ci ją za żonę. Tylko okaż mi się waleczny i prowadź wojny Pana. Myślał zaś Saul tak: Nie chciałbym tknąć go moją ręką, ale niech go dotknie ręka filistyńska”. Ostatecznie jednak oddano tą córkę komuś innemu. W międzyczasie jednak Saul się dowiedział, że jego młodsza córka Michal zakochała się w Dawidzie. Saul ponownie chciał wykorzystać to aby zabić Dawida. Kazał mu przekazać, że nie chce opłaty za narzeczoną, ale chce 100 filistyńskich napletków. Dawid od razu poszedł i zdobył 200. Innymi słowy Dawid zapłacił za swoją żonę zabiciem 200 Filistynów.Saul jednak dalej chciał zabić Dawida, teraz już swojego zięcia. Dawida uratowała właśnie jego żona Michal. W 1 Samuela 19:11 czytamy: “Wysłał Saul oprawców pod dom Dawida, by go pilnowali i rano go zabili. Lecz Michal, jego żona, doniosła o tym Dawidowi, mówiąc: Jeżeli w ciągu tej nocy nie ujdziesz z życiem, jutro zostaniesz zabity”. Michal pomogła mu uciec przez okno, a potem do łóżka położyła posążek i udawała, że Dawid leży tam chory. Dzięki temu nie wysłano za Dawidem pościgu. Gdy jednak Saul pytał swoją córkę czemu tak postąpiła odparła w wersecie 17, że Dawid zagroził jej śmiercią.Dawid przez wiele lat prowadził życie uciekiniera wtedy ożenił się z dwiema kobietami: Achinoam z Jizreel i Abigail wdowę po Nabalu. Czytamy o tym w 1 Samuela 25:40-43. Kolejny werset 44 mówi o tym, że Saul oddał Michal innemu mężczyźnie. Czy te wydarzenia są opisane chronologicznie? Tz. czy Dawid najpierw wziął sobie te dwie nowe żony, a Saul słysząc o tym oddał jego żonę nowemu mężowi. Czy też było na odwrót? Tego nie wiemy, w każdym bądź razie Dawid stracił Michal, ale miał dwie żony Achinoam i Abigail. Biblia niewiele o nich mówi. Achinoam urodziła syna Amnona, z którym potem było wiele problemów, a mądra Abigail urodziła Daniela, który też jest znany pod imieniem Kileab.Później Dawid wraz z tymi dwoma żonami oraz swoimi ludźmi poszedł do Gat. Od króla tego miasta dostał później Ciklag i tam umieścił obie swoje żony. Gdy później doszło do wojny pomiędzy Saulem i Filistynami, Dawid stawił się aby walczyć po stronie Filistynów. Oni się go obawiali i ostatecznie nie wziął udziału w wojnie. W międzyczasie jednak Ciklag zostało zdobyte przez Amalekitów. Wszyscy ludzie, w tym żony Dawida zostali uprowadzeni. Dawid ruszył jednak w pościg i odbił wszystkich porwanych, w tym także Achinoam i Abigail. W międzyczasie Filistyni pokonali wojsko Saula, a on sam zginął. Dawid udał się do Hebronu, czyli do miasta na terenie plemienia Judy i został tam królem. W międzyczasie królem Izraela został jedyny syn Saula.Właśnie w Hebronie urodzili się synowie Dawida. Księga 2 Samuela 3:2-5 wymienia 6 synów, każdy z innej żony. Dwie pierwsze już poznaliśmy: Achinoam z Jizreel i Abigail wdowę po Nabalu. Jako trzecia jest wymieniona Maaka, córka króla Geszuru. Mówiłem o niej w odcinku 3, który był poświęcony jej prawnuczce, która też tak miała na imię. Nie wiadomo kiedy Dawid zawędrował do Geszuru, ale najwyraźniej zawarł sojusz z królem tego kraju Talmajem. To małżeństwo z Maaką, córką Talmaja, króla Geszuru był najwyraźniej potwierdzeniem tego sojuszu.Kolejne trzy żony to Chaggita, Abital oraz Egla. Nie wiemy o nich wiele. Tak więc przebywając w Hebronie Dawid miał 6 żon i każda urodziła mu jednego syna. Achinoam urodziła Amnona, Abigail Daniela, Maaka Absaloma i córkę Tamar, a Chaggita Adoniasza. Wydaje się, że następcą Dawida miał być jego najstarszy syn Amnon. Zgwałcił on jednak swoją przyrodnią siostrę Tamar, za co zabił go jej brat Absalom. Ten ostatni po zabójstwie brata uciekł do swojego dziadka Talmaja do Geszuru.W międzyczasie z Dawidem chciał się skontaktować Abner, dowódca wojska króla Saula. Dawid mu odpowiedział, że go przyjmie jedynie gdy ten przyprowadzi jego pierwszą żonę Michal. Abner odebrał ją jej drugiemu mężowi i przysłał do Dawida. Jej drugi mąż podążał za nią płacząc. Może lepiej, żeby z nim została, bo z Dawidem niespecjalnie się jej układało. Przypomnijmy, że była jego pierwszą żoną. Teraz Dawid ma już przynajmniej 6 dodatkowych żon i każda urodziła mu dziecko, a Michal jest dalej bezdzietna. I tak miało pozostać, dlaczego?Dawid postanowił sprowadzić arkę Bożą do Jerozolimy. Udało się to za drugim razem. W 2 Samuela 6:16 czytamy co się wtedy wydarzyło: “A gdy Skrzynia Pańska dotarła do Miasta Dawida, Michal, córka Saula, wyjrzała przez okno i widziała, że król Dawid skakał i tańczył przed Panem, i wzgardziła nim w swoim sercu”. Gdy wrócił on do domu powiedziała, że poniżył się w oczach innych kobiet. Dawid odpowiedział, że będzie u nich szukał szacunku zamiast u Michal. Ostatni werset tego rozdziału mówi, że Michal nie miała dzieci. Wydaje się, że Dawid po prostu przestał z nią współżyć.Jeżeli tak było to Dawid złamał nakaz z Prawa Mojżeszowego. W Wyjścia 21:10 czytamy: “Jeżeli weźmie sobie inną za żonę, nie ujmie jej ani pożywienia, ani odzieży, ani obcowania cielesnego”. Zdaje się, że Michal nie brakowało pożywienia i odzieży, ale Dawid nie chciał z nią współżyć po tym wydarzeniu. W 2 Samuela 21:8 czytamy o 5 synach Michal, byli to jednak chyba synowie jej siostry Merab. Merab najwyraźniej umarła, a wychowaniem jej synów zajmowała się bezdzietna Michal.Czy Dawid zaniedbał Michal bo zajmował się pozostałymi 6 żonami. Wydaje się, że Dawid wziął sobie wtedy jeszcze więcej żon. Np. kiedy Absalom wrócił do Izraela wstawiał się za nim Joab. Później ponownie gdy chciał się dostać przed oblicze Dawida ponownie prosił o to Joab. Zauważmy, że gdyby Maaka matka Absaloma miała jakiś wpływ na Dawida prawdopodobnie syn by prosił przez nią. Najwyraźniej Dawid miał już wtedy wiele żon i nałożnic. Czytamy o tym w 2 Samuela 5:12: “Gdy Dawid przeniósł się z Hebronu, dobrał sobie jeszcze nałożnice i żony z Jeruzalemu; urodziło mu się też jeszcze więcej synów i córek”.Niestety Dawidowi było tego za mało. Wdał się więc w romans z Batszebą, żoną jednego ze swoich najwierniejszych żołnierzy Uriasza. Gdy Batszeba zaszła w ciążę, Dawid spowodował śmierć jej męża. Wtedy przyszedł prorok Natan i opowiedział mu historię bogacza, który miał wiele owieczek, ale kazał zabrać jedyną owieczkę biedaka. Oczywiście Dawid był tym bogaczem z przypowieści - miał wiele żon, ale zabrał jedyną, którą miał Uriasz. Prorok zapowiedział wtedy: “Wzbudzę zło w twoim własnym domu przeciwko tobie, na twoich oczach zabiorę ci twoje żony i dam je innemu, i będzie z nimi obcował w blasku tego słońca. Ty wprawdzie uczyniłeś to potajemnie, Ja jednak uczynię to wobec całego Izraela i przy blasku słońca” (2 Samuela 12:11-12). Jak się spełniły te słowa?Gdy Absalom się zbuntował Dawid uciekł wraz z całym swoim domem. W 2 Samuela 15:16 czytamy: “wyruszył król piechotą z całym swoim domem. Na miejscu król pozostawił dziesięć swoich nałożnic do pilnowania domu”. Dawid uciekając przed Absalomem zabrał cały swój dom, czyli wszystkie żony, nałożnice i dzieci. Zostawił tylko tych 10 kobiet. Co się z nimi stało? Za radą Achitofela zbuntowany syn Absalom na oczach całego Izraela wszedł do namiotu, gdzie przebywało tych 10 nałożnic jego ojca. Gdy Dawid pokonał już Absaloma i wrócił oddał te kobiety pod straż. Utrzymywał je ale z nimi nie współżył.Ostatnią prawdziwą żoną Dawida, którą znamy z imienia była Batszeba. Wprawdzie ich pierwsze dziecko umarło, ale drugim okazał się Salomon. Gdy Dawid się zestarzał znaleziono mu ostatnią “żonę”, która miała go ogrzewać. “Szukano pięknej dziewczyny po całym obszarze Izraela, a gdy znaleziono Abiszag, Szunamitkę, przyprowadzono ją do króla. Była to bardzo piękna dziewczyna; pielęgnowała i obsługiwała króla, lecz król z nią nie obcował” (1 Królewska 1:3-4). Dawid miał jednak wielu synów, kto miał zostać jego następcą?Przypomnijmy, że pierwszy jego syn Amnon został zabity przez trzeciego syna Absaloma. Biblia nic nie mówi o drugim synu urodzonym przez mądrą Abigail. Miał on na imię Danieli być może umarł wcześnie. Ja jednak lubię jego nieobecność w walkach o władzę po Dawidzie tłumaczyć mądrością i pokorą jego matki. W każdym bądź razie Amnon miał być chyba następcą Dawida, po jego śmierci władzę próbował przejąć Absalom. Po jego buncie i śmierci wydaje się, że do władzy szykował się czwarty syn Dawida - Adoniasz.Prorok Natan powiedział więc Batszebie, żeby poszła porozmawiać z królem Dawidem. Ten przebywał w swoich komnatach ze swoją ostatnią żoną, która go ogrzewała czyli z Abiszag. Batszeba przypomniała Dawidowi, że obiecał jej, że jej syn Salomon zostanie po nim królem, a tymczasem władzę powoli przejmuje Adoniasz. Dawid więc kazał obwołać królem Salomona i postawić wszystkich przed faktem dokonanym. Tak więc Salomon został królem vivente rege czyli za życia poprzedniego króla.Adoniasz poczekał, aż Dawid umrze, a potem poprosił Batszebę matkę Salomona, aby poprosiła dla niego o ostatnią żonę króla Dawida czyli piękną Abiszag, z którą Dawid nigdy nie współżył. W 1 Królewskiej 2:21 jest zapisana prośba Batszeby do Salomona: “Niech oddadzą Abiszag, Szunamitkę, Adoniaszowi, twemu bratu, za żonę. Tak sobie myślę, że Batszeba była trochę zazdrosną o tą ostatnią niby żonę Dawida. Salomon jednak wiedział, że za tą prośbą stoi Adoniasz i kazał go zabić. Najwyraźniej prawo do żon króla miał tylko jego następca. Nie ma jednak wzmianki co się stało z Abiszag, być może została jedną z 700 żon króla Salomona.zapraszam do grupy tego podkastu na facebooku:https://www.facebook.com/groups/historia.biblijna

For the final episiode in this first series of Unknown Exclusives, Unknown.FM proudly presents DJ Junk, a UK-based DJ/Producer that has been a massive influence on many of the Unknown.FM djs since way back in the early 90's. Dj'ing since 1988 and producing since 1992, DJ Junk started producing rave / jungle 12"'s in 1992 and released a series of white labels called 'Junk 001', 002, 003 and so on up to volume 12. Since 1992 he has released 71 vinyl releases under various names / genres and labels. He also distributed a series of rave mix tapes starting in 1991 known as 'Junk Hardcore'. DJ Junk's dj style avoids the well-known tunes and goes for those unknown, under-rated gems. In 1994 he produced a series of house / hard house 12"s under the artist name of 'Blister Sisters' and ran a house label called 'Completely Suitable'. This ran from 1994 to 1997 and had 14 releases, some of which were white labels. In the early 90's he produced a series of tapes called 'Breakbeat Mix' . These were mixes of hip hop breakbeats and other samples. Produced on a sampler rather than turntables they were like very long tracks rather than dj mixes. In 1996 the best parts of the 'Breakbeat Mixes' were compiled on a vinyl album called ‘Breaker Breaks Volume One'. This album also had sections of film samples and hip hop noises for scratch DJ's. The label this was released on was known as ‘Second To None' which was the B-Boy crew of which DJ Junk was a member and so used that name for the new label. The ‘Breaker Breaks' albums were followed with other volumes to reach volume 6. The ‘Second To None' label which was ran by DJ Junk also had other releases – ‘B-Boy Anthems Vol 1-6' , ‘Weapons Of Mass Deckstruction Vol 1-4', ‘Prone Breaks', ‘Ultimate B-Boy Funk' , ‘Trouble With Funk' plus several other LP's and 12”'s. DJ Junk has also had tracks released on other labels including, ‘Ministry Of Sound' , ‘MZEE', ‘Bomb' , ‘Pepper', ‘Mo Wax', ‘Ozone', 'Telstar', 'Spandangle Selection' , 'NMRK' . 'MPS', 'Vinyl Fanatiks', 'Funkin' Pussy', 'Meditator Music', ‘Rave Radio'. DJ Junk has D.J.ed all over the UK and Europe since the early 1990's and regularly plays at b-boy events such as the dirty 30's at UK B-Boy Championships and IBE Holland, Breaking Convention, Vile Style in Bournemouth, Breakfest, plus many clubs. He has played at rave/jungle events – Calling The Hardcore , Remixed, WDA ,Up The Anti plus others as well as various soul and disco events. For this mix DJ Junk has put together 2 hours of early 90's breakbeat which is has mixed seamlessly in his formiddable style.
L’information de la semaine sur le front de la pandémie de Covid-19 c’est qu’un vaccin pourrait être prochainement mis en circulation. Mais ce progrès scientifique –s’il se confirme- pourrait se heurter à un front du refus, entretenu notamment par l’Alliance mondiale des médecins, un collectif relayant des thèses conspirationistes. Les membres de cette association dénommée « World Doctors Alliance » (WDA), se répandent à longueur d’interview, de conférences et de vidéo sur les réseaux sociaux pour contester l’existence même du virus ou du moins sa dangerosité. En conséquence ils s’opposent systématiquement aux mesures prises pour lutter contre la pandémie : contre le confinement, ou le couvre-feu, contre la distanciation sociale, contre les masques, contre les tests et contre les vaccins. Scenario complotiste par excellence, l’un d’eux s’interroge dans une interview relayée sur Facebook et WhatsApp « comment s’immuniser contre une maladie qui n’existe pas ? » Et de poursuivre « ils veulent nous modifier génétiquement avec le vaccin ». Des arguments assénés sans aucun début de preuve. Le compte Facebook qui relaye cette interview poste également des messages contre « la franc-maçonnerie sataniste », « contre la finance mondiale et les juifs qui contrôlent le monde ». Dans une autre vidéo, une femme en blouse blanche fait le lien entre le coronavirus et le déploiement de la 5 G. On est réellement dans un registre conspirationniste très éloigné du monde des sciences, et du monde réel tout court. Médecine et réalités alternatives Les membres de ce collectif se présentent comme des « professionnels de la santé ». Certains en sont ou l’ont été. Le site publie les biographies, aligne les diplômes et les spécialités : biologistes, physiciens, psychiatres mais aussi des disciplines moins conventionnelles : médecins holistiques, naturopathes, qui relèvent de la médecine alternative. Sans porter de jugement à priori sur ces spécialités, il apparait manifeste que les membres de l’association qui s’en réclament, se montre particulièrement enclin à critiquer l’approche scientifique conventionnelle, au point d’en nier systématiquement les fondements. Là encore sans démonstration construite, en procédant par amalgame, en ignorant la gravité du virus. Scientifiques en rupture de ban Parmi eux,Dolores Cahill, est particulièrement active, comme le montre notamment sa façon d’haranguer la foule en septembre dernier lors de manifestations anti-masque à Londres. Sa biographie sur le site de la WDA fait état d’un PhD en Immunologie et biotechnologie obtenu en 1994 à Dublin, et surtout un titre de vice-présidente du comité scientifique de l’Union Européenne consacré à l’innovation médicale, l’IMI, partenariat entre l’UE et l’industrie pharmaceutique. En revanche, ce que le site oublie de préciser c’est qu’à la suite d’une interview accordée par Dolores Cahill à un activiste de l’ultra droite alternative,le comité scientifique qu’elle co-présidait a demandé sa démission, et l’école de médecine du Collège universitaire de Dublin dont elle est issue, a tenu à se démarquer de ses positions. Dans l’argumentaire développé par cette officine conspirationiste, le nombre de morts associé au Covid-19 est contesté d’emblée, le fait que le virus puisse laisser des séquelles également. Les gouvernements du monde entier seraient de mèche pour créer -par le confinement- une crise économique dont on ne voit pas le profit qu’ils pourraient en tirer. Mais qu’importe, il est dans la logique du complotisme que seuls les initiés comprennent les tenants et les aboutissants d’une telle situation. Face à la complexité du monde, le récit complotiste offre une version alternative des faits et de la médecine. En pleine pandémie, c’est un phénomène dangereux. Cette chronique répond aux interrogations d’un auditeur, sur le groupe WhatsApp de l’émission Les dessous de l’infox, dont nous vous rappelons le numéro : 06 89 07 61 09, pour nous alerter sur les infox et la mésinformation qui circulent sur les réseaux sociaux.
WDA（CUTIBASE lab）会員限定イベントである組織マネジメントゼミに、日本における「エンゲージメントサーベイ」の第一人者的ポジションを占めるサービスwevoxの開発に携わっているゲストをお呼びした。 いわゆる「組織サーベイ」には、客観的に組織をスコア化して社員をやる気で振り分け、そして、やる気がない人を1on1で呼び出すというイベント、というイメージがある。 しかし、「エンゲージメント」とは、個人の中にあるものというより、人と人、人と会社の関係性のなかにあるものであり、モチベーションや従業員満足度とは別物だ、とお二人は語る。 組織の問題をエンゲージメントの観点から捉えることで、解決策が変わる。 モチベーションや従業員満足度の観点では「どちらかが悪い」となり得るが、エンゲージメントの観点で考えると、対話によって関係性を変えていく・意味づけを変えていくという解決策を取ることができるように。 WDA会員の皆様には動画を公開予定なので、ご興味のある方は是非ご入会を。

Transcription Andrew McGregor: Welcome to another episode of the Hermit's Lamp podcast. I'm here today with Toni Puhle. And I met Toni at Readers Studio, which is a big card reader convention event in New York City in the spring every year, and I really enjoyed their approach to working with the cards, because unlike some of the more maybe popular stuff that I was running into or had been running into, Toni is deep into the fortune-telling side, deep into the sort of more European practices and decks like Lenormand and other things that have been going on for a long time, but for some reason never really gained their popularity in North America, but have been doing so in the last number of years. So for those who don't know who you are, Toni, why don't you give us a quick introduction? Toni Puhle: I am Toni, I'm also known as the Card Geek on social media and founder of the World Divination Association. I teach systems, I teach students around the world how to to read systems like Kipper cards, gypsy cards, and also Lenormand and how to go back to basics and do the predictive-style reads of the old-fashioned fortune tellers. On top of that I teach the spiritual side of life, such as pendulum dowsing, pendulum healing, also symbol healing, all kinds of courses that I have through my years learned and what I ... I tend to teach what is important to me or important to me as a person, and I am a practicing Hoʻoponopono teacher, and if you mix all that in together with a super practical person who loves theoretical physics, who loves the theory of everything and try to break my brain daily on quantum physics, quantum field theory, and how we can actually explain all this amazing spiritual stuff we are doing, but in a super practical way. Toni Puhle: And then if you throw in some Marvel characters and generally a whole heap of superheroes, you've got a rounded version of who I am. I'm from the UK, you can tell by the tone, but I'm currently living in Munich, Germany, so speaking German and English. So if I do lose a word as we're talking, it's probably because my mind is in German mode. Andrew McGregor: Mm-hmm (affirmative), totally fair. Well I'll just remind you and you can be like "Oh yeah, yeah, English." Toni Puhle: Exactly. Andrew McGregor: Okay, so very important question. Toni Puhle: Yes. Andrew McGregor: Current favorite Marvel character? Toni Puhle: Oh, I have so many, I can't choose one. I love Dr. Strange, I love Thor. Iron Man is my all time favorite and- Andrew McGregor: Of course. Toni Puhle: ... that will never change. Andrew McGregor: Yes. Spoiler alert, he saves the world. Toni Puhle: And I also love Loki, I like both sides of the coin in Marvel. Andrew McGregor: Nice. Yeah, Marvel stuff gets a lot of play around my house. Toni Puhle: I also have two boys and I've pushed them in that direction so I can actually watch more. Andrew McGregor: For sure. Well that's your job as a parent, right? Toni Puhle: Exactly. Andrew McGregor: I remember there was a time probably around when my kids started being like five and six where I was like "How about we not watch that, how about we try this instead? Hey look at this Spider-Man thing, hey look at Scooby Doo, these are great." Toni Puhle: Yes. Andrew McGregor: As opposed to some of the other stuff where you're just like, "If I have to listen to that again my head's just going to melt right out of my ears, I can't deal with it," so ... Toni Puhle: I absolutely love going back with the kids as well, because Lloyd, my eldest, he is sort of a retro kid, he loves to go back to what I used to watch as a kid and then talk through it with me. And we talk daily on the way to school, we talk daily about the theories of Marvel and who or what movies are coming out next and the properties of each superhero and how we would use that property if we had it in our lives, and I think that's also a spiritual side to life where you also consider what you would do if you could. Andrew McGregor: Yeah, well, and I think that that's one of the parts of magic, right? What would we do if we could, and then how can we? Toni Puhle: Yes. And that's also throwing the physics in there, because there is the practical sense to it as well, is there any way we can explain how we could possibly do that in the future? Andrew McGregor: Mm-hmm (affirmative), yeah. My eldest, we always have these conversations after stuff, like the Ant-Man movie where they end up in the "quantum realm," right? Toni Puhle: Yes. Andrew McGregor: And my eldest is just like "That's not how it works, that's not even a thing. They just made that up so it'd look good in the movie." Toni Puhle: But I love it that she thinks that. Andrew McGregor: Yeah, for sure, right? And they really, it was one of the things that when they started homeschooling, they went to the library and one of the first books they checked out was Quantum Particle Theory. Toni Puhle: Amazing. Andrew McGregor: I was just like "That's awesome. You're 10 and that's what you want to read, great." Rock on. Toni Puhle: Amazing. Andrew McGregor: Mm-hmm (affirmative), for sure. So maybe let's start with this. Hoʻoponopono, what is it? Toni Puhle: Yes. Andrew McGregor: It's a lovely-sounding word, what does it mean and what's it about? Toni Puhle: It is. It's actually quite misunderstood, it's called the art of forgiveness. It comes from Hawaii, and I actually learned about it probably eight years ago, maybe more. And I started doing the prayer, and the prayer is quite simple. "I love you, I'm sorry, please forgive me, thank you." And like most people who start with Hoʻoponopono, at the beginning I thought I was sending people into balloons or bubbles and light and letting them go into the distance, the art of forgiving other people. Toni Puhle: But actually when I researched it and started living the Hoʻoponopono prayer, it is about taking responsibility for our actions right now in this moment in time. It's a belief system that we are all one, the collective consciousness if you like, the return to zero, the null state at which we are born in spirit, and then returning to that. Because everything that's incoming these days, all this information, social media especially, everything that's incoming is all something that we deal with, we react to something, and they're actually only physical things in the physical human existence, but if we return or if we can find a way to return to our nullness, our voidness, then we don't need to react. The need has gone, and you react in a very different way than you would have before. You may act angry or you may act hurt. We're taking responsibility for any problem that arises and we're saying "Okay, we're here and we send the prayer up to this nullness, this void." Toni Puhle: Some people will call it God, other people will call it void, but you send your prayer up and you are taking responsibility for your part of returning to void. And the more we cleanse, the more we return to void. Cleanse is just saying the prayer, technically. More you return to void, and the more even and more neutral you are as a person, I had times where I would have outbursts, et cetera. If I'm in the car and somebody had annoyed me while driving, I was not the calmest person. And it was when I realized that I actually needed to sort me out first, and that's where Hoʻoponopono really sent me on the path of accepting responsibility for me. Andrew McGregor: I think it's so important, right? I think that we all need to find that understanding of where we are and what we're responsible for and what we control, and all of those things in a way that allows us to be freer to be in the moment, maybe is a good way to put it. Toni Puhle: Yeah, exactly. And I think also, there is this part of me that does want to break my brain and learn as much as possible, but it's also important to filter out which bit of that learning is important for now. Andrew McGregor: Yeah, for sure. Toni Puhle: And taking responsibility for learning the right parts for you, and also taking responsibility to accept that you don't know everything. Andrew McGregor: Mm-hmm (affirmative). Well, and I think that my question for you then is, right, so if you're returning to null and to void, or whatever we want to call those things, where do you exist in that? What are you in that? Toni Puhle: I am null and void. I am a part of the void. It's not commonly accepted, and the physics world don't like to hear it, but I strongly believe that quantum field theory will give us more information on the null state, more information on the void state. They call it a field, I call it a void. And I am part of that void, as we all are. My human existence is completely separate to that void at times, when I lose sight of who I really am. But then the ... Sorry, go ahead. Andrew McGregor: Well, so are you nothing, then? Are you nobody? Are you just that void state? Toni Puhle: No, I am- Andrew McGregor: Where's the part of you that is driven to start this World Divination Association? That doesn't sound very null or void. What's that distinction? Toni Puhle: The distinction is that when you are in null or void, that is when the inspiration comes in. That's when the information comes in that is useful. We're so used to hearing white noise all the time that we can't actually hear, null or void may be the wrong word for it, but we can't actually hear the information that is important. So until I enter my state of null or void, the information that's coming out of me may not be the best information for everybody else. Toni Puhle: And the WDA was a spark of inspiration. The Kipper book I wrote was something that came to me and I had to do it and I had to do it immediately. And it feels like a drive, and I use the word void because I can't explain it, in my psychic development courses, I can't explain it in any other way than your head has to be empty. There has to be no external information coming in except that spark from above or except that message, if you want to call it a message. So the returning to void is more of a state than a being. Andrew McGregor: Yeah, it reminds me of the idea that we need to just find that deep, deep silence, right? Toni Puhle: Yeah. Andrew McGregor: And we don't just mean, by deep silence we don't just necessarily mean stop thinking, but actually- Toni Puhle: No. Andrew McGregor: ... stop identifying with anything, right? Toni Puhle: Yes. Andrew McGregor: You know, and there's a meditation that I often do with people where it's like, you go through and sort of dissociate from your body, dissociate from your emotions, dissociate- Toni Puhle: Exactly that. Andrew McGregor: ... from your thinking, and your memories and so on and so on and so on, dissociate from the world, and then you get to a place where there's something left. And it's- Toni Puhle: Yes. Andrew McGregor: ... definitely you. Toni Puhle: That's you, that's what I call void. Andrew McGregor: Mm-hmm (affirmative). Toni Puhle: Personally, and I think people who have or suffer with depression actually understand that feeling a lot better without even realizing it than people who don't. So I think depression has a lot to do with spirituality or where we are on our spiritual journey, and that emptiness isn't ... Sometimes a horrible feeling if you aren't used to it, it is an emptiness, like you say. And there's something leftover, but you're not sure what. Andrew McGregor: Yeah, I mean, it can be that long Dark Night of the Soul piece, right? Toni Puhle: Yes. Andrew McGregor: Like who wrote that, St. John of the Cross? There's a book on that, right? And that place where it's like, you find despair so that you can find the light. Toni Puhle: Yes. Andrew McGregor: But I think that that's one of those touchy areas where it's like, sometimes that's true. Sometimes this world just sucks, right? Or biology or whatever- Toni Puhle: Sometimes life just sucks. Andrew McGregor: ... and so there are lots of ways to look at that. So if you're listening to this and that doesn't feel helpful to you, just [crosstalk 00:15:08]- Toni Puhle: No, this is true. Andrew McGregor: ... It's a particular kind of relationship to that for sure, in the same way that shamanic sickness or near-death experience for some people and in certain situations can really open up to a similar kind of thing or other kinds of experiences. It doesn't mean that everything is that way. But yeah, for sure. Toni Puhle: No. And like I said before, I think we have to accept that we don't know everything. Andrew McGregor: For sure, right? Toni Puhle: Whatever we talk about, we can talk about until the cows come home, but at the end of the day we can't prove it. Andrew McGregor: No, for sure. Well, the proof is in the practice, I think, right? Toni Puhle: Yes. Andrew McGregor: Is it helpful, is it getting me somewhere, is it helping me move forward? Am I making real change or sustaining the life that I have that I want? I mean I think that to me those are the, the longer I journey on a path with divination and magic and other things, those become the real measures of what seems helpful or important. Toni Puhle: That's very true, and for one person it'll be different to another person's journey. Andrew McGregor: Mm-hmm (affirmative), for sure. For sure. So how did you find Hoʻoponopono living in Germany, or maybe you found it while you were in the UK? Did you visit Hawaii, did someone bring it to you, how did it show up in your [crosstalk 00:16:35]- Toni Puhle: No, like most things in life, it turned up on my doorstep. I think the paths or the routes that we go down just happen to either turn up or you've made a cosmic order for a certain path to go on, and they show up at your door. And honestly, when I first started reading about it, I used it as a coping mechanism at the time. And it was shortly after I had my first boy, Lloyd, and I think it was more of a getting through the day coping method, and I didn't truly understand it as a lifestyle until recently. Andrew McGregor: ... Mm-hmm (affirmative). Toni Puhle: So it was, like everything, it showed up. Andrew McGregor: Well, and I think that spiritual paths are often like that, right? Toni Puhle: Yeah. Andrew McGregor: They take us where we need to go, not necessarily [crosstalk 00:17:51]- Toni Puhle: Whether we want to or not. Andrew McGregor: ... whether we expect it or not, right? Toni Puhle: Exactly. Andrew McGregor: Like even when we grow up around stuff, I think it's always difficult to truly understand what's going on in someone else's experience, and so as we become a practitioner or a leader or teacher or whatever, it all starts to change and grow and we grow through that too, right? Toni Puhle: The reason I like Hoʻoponopono for that is because you aren't projecting your ideas on anybody else. The taking responsibility yourself means that you look at the person who's sat opposite you and you aren't seeing them through your own experience, you are seeing them through a, I'll use void again, through a void experience where there are no expectations or no preconceived ideas. And you don't actually need to understand their journey, but you can still play a part in it. Andrew McGregor: I think that's actually a really interesting point, too. I find when I'm reading for people, there's a sort of idea that people put towards me that I understand everything about them, or even everything that I'm saying, right? And sometimes, there are times where I have a deep level of understanding about it, and then there are times where a peculiar phrase that I wouldn't normally use comes out, or I use a metaphor that I don't remember ever using before. And there's something in that process that emerges that makes a ton of sense to them, but to me I'm kind of like, if someone asks I'm like "I don't know, I just said it. I was just doing the work and letting the work come through me," right? Toni Puhle: I presume also that you forget those reads very quickly afterwards as well, because you've probably passed on the message that needed to be passed on, and it didn't have to become a part of you. Andrew McGregor: Mm-hmm (affirmative), for sure. I forget a lot of readings. Toni Puhle: I do too. Andrew McGregor: It's too hard to hold onto them, it's like, I'm just going to just be super loose about this and let it go, and then- Toni Puhle: I think that's the only way when you do regular readings. Andrew McGregor: ... Mm-hmm (affirmative), for sure. Okay. So on one side we got the void, and on the other side we've got time, space, and prediction. Toni Puhle: Yes. Andrew McGregor: Right? What's the relationship? For you. Or if you want to share some math or something. Toni Puhle: I have a super dodgy relationship with predictions and fortune-telling, et cetera, because while I do have this side of void and spiritualism, et cetera, I have this side where I use systems, and I actually use systems for a reason. And I probably haven't shared this many places, but I use systems so I don't have to channel. When I channel, I don't ... I can do it all day long if I want to, but I have built up barriers through the years to stop the channeling happening, because I am more comfortable passing on a predictive read and a fortune-telling read when it's clear in the cards. Toni Puhle: I think this is this duality within me that I need proof, and the physics side of Toni, and then the void side of me that is letting loose and letting everything happen. So I have this two sides of my relationship with cards and spirit that at times I struggle with, personally, but that's because my physic hat comes on one day and I think "Oh my goodness, how can I tell them that that's going to happen when the only proof I have is a system in front of me?" But I do it anyway, because that's part of being a fortune-teller and part of being a predictive reader. And when I get emails back saying how wonderful and it's amazing that you will predict, because I think a lot of readers these days don't want to predict, they want to use it as a psychological tool or some kind of tool for making people feel better, which is awesome of that's the root or aura person that you are. Toni Puhle: I'm not that person, I want to know what's going to happen next week when I go to the shop down the corner. I'm quite simple, a quite simple person. I want to know if I'm, for example, moving house this year. I want to know where my journey is going and I want the building blocks along the way. I want to see exactly what's happening. So I do the predictive side of it, and I do have my void side of it where I will channel and I will bring in messages, but I prefer the systems because it's in black and white in front of you, and that's probably the proof that I require for my physics hat person. I require the proof of the system in front of me. Andrew McGregor: I think that looking for evidence or corroboration in what you're doing is one of the most important parts of doing divination. When I'm reading cards for people, I'm pointing at the cards and I'm saying "Look here, you can see it yourself. Look at what this person's doing. This is you, this is this." When Carrie and I teach mediumship through charm casting, right? We're looking for that corroboration. It's like, well, okay, you want to speak to your grandmother, it's like, "Oh, here's the gardening tool, me and my gran used to spend all our time out back puttering with the flower pots." It's like, okay, now we've got some corroboration, right? Now we've got some evidence. Toni Puhle: Exactly that. Andrew McGregor: And I think that channeling and open receiving messages is great too, and there can be evidence in that process as well. Toni Puhle: There can be. Andrew McGregor: Depending on who you're working with and how that's coming, but yeah, where there's no evidence, where there's no relationship. Something lovely might be going on there, but I don't actually know and understand what that is, and therefore I'm skeptical. Toni Puhle: Exactly. I do teach, I can't say I don't do it. I teach automatic writing, I teach all the qualities of becoming a great medium, or some people want to call a great psychic, for the predictive reads. But I think it's super important for that corroboration, but I also think it's important to have a process that you go down for that. So that yes, I do have information coming in, but I make sure that information is coming in when I'm in void. I'm very much controlling my environment and myself so that I have the physics me who is in human existence and controlling it, but then the other side, when I am in void. So I am controlling when I am entering void, and I can do a very practical and physics-minded predictive read using systems, because it's all there in front of you. Andrew McGregor: So when you're channeling, right, what are you channeling? Nothing? The void? Something else? Toni Puhle: No, no, sorry. The void that I am in is my free space for messages and for spirit, for ancestors, for any form of fae, garden people, any elementals is probably the better word, or other species. So the void is creating the place for me to do that, it's creating a null zero in me. It's basically my spirit, but not using the words. Andrew McGregor: Right. Toni Puhle: It's my free spirit and my free place for people, or people is probably the wrong word, for spirit to come in and give me the information that I need. Andrew McGregor: Sure. Entities, right? Toni Puhle: Yes. Andrew McGregor: Yes. Although some people get nervous with that word, I think it's the best word, to be honest. Because it implies an autonomy that some other words that people choose sometimes get rid of, right? Toni Puhle: I think the problem with me is that I'm always looking for the right word. Andrew McGregor: Mm-hmm (affirmative). Toni Puhle: And maybe I like void, it's a word that makes sense to me. It doesn't necessarily make sense to anybody else, but it's a word that I've given it that actually makes sense in my existence. Andrew McGregor: Mm-hmm (affirmative), yeah. I mean I think that it makes total sense, right? I think of it this way. When I'm going to work or channel for people, I center myself in a really sort of deep, compassionate place ... Toni Puhle: Yes. Andrew McGregor: And I open up myself to what wants to come through, right? And people always like "Well how do you read the cards?" Or "How do you do whatever?" I'm like "Well, it's psychic, it's ancestors, it's my guide, it's psychology." Toni Puhle: It happens. Andrew McGregor: It's my 30-odd years of study, it's blah blah blah, and it's like, I don't seek to control anything around that. I just sort of point it towards the process, right? Toni Puhle: Yeah, it's more like- Andrew McGregor: And then what needs to emerge emerges. Toni Puhle: ... preparing the place, yeah. Andrew McGregor: Yeah, and it's not about deciding ahead of time, at least for me, well, this is going to be where we're going to be really strictly this way, because I only read one system of cards. All I work with is Marseilles cards, so I don't do anything else with people in general. But one of the things that I love about that deck is that for me, it also is, to steal your word, a void space, right? To me the beauty of the Marseilles is that it will accept all of those things and feed into all of those processes in a way that personally I find other decks harder to hold that energy, because they're more deliberately specific. Toni Puhle: Yeah, and I think we, you said a really nice thing, that we're holing a space for that. And I explain it sometimes like, when we're born we come in with no expectations, no preconceived ideas, and it's like returning to that state. Andrew McGregor: Mm-hmm (affirmative). Toni Puhle: And that's when the information is incoming or the reader incoming or whatever word you want to put it, the entities are incoming. Andrew McGregor: Mm-hmm (affirmative), for sure. So we had a lovely heap of questions that kind of came in on Facebook, and if you listen to the podcast and you don't follow me on Facebook, you might want to, because it gives people the opportunity to pose questions that I look over and try and bring some of them anyway to the thing, to the podcast and to the guest. So a some of the questions seem centered around ideas of measuring or discerning or categorizing different things. Somebody was asking about the ghosts or the spirits in their house, somebody was asking about how do we measure their own energy, and other things along those lines. And so I guess what I want to sort of try and summarize that question as a starting point is, how do you discern the qualities of the energy or the entities that are around you? Or when you're working? Toni Puhle: The first thing I do is return to void for me, and return to nothingness so I can sense what's around. So the inside me or the spirit of me can actually feel, I guess feel's the wrong word, there aren't words big enough for that. But when it comes to spirit, there are so many different feelings that come attached to them for me personally, and I explain it like personalities. Andrew McGregor: Yes. Toni Puhle: So you will have people in your life who just rub you up the wrong way, and sometimes a spirit will come in and they'll do exactly that, they will rub you up the wrong way. Then fae, for example, they come in and it's more of a buzzing mosquito type energy that you are dealing with, and the way I discern what's around or even the energy within the environment that I'm in, I bring myself back down, as you say, your centering, but I bring myself down where I can feel what level that energy is at. Toni Puhle: And once I discern what level it's at, whether it's a high vibration or a lower vibration ... I work with pendulums, obviously, the word vibration, obviously I work with vibrational healing as well. And so an entity will come in for me with a vibration, and it is that vibration that I then, I detect it, but then I also assimilate to it, so that my energy can then accept the energy that's incoming or can accept them in order to receive a message or in order to understand why. Andrew McGregor: Mm-hmm (affirmative). And do you categorize them, good and bad? Toni Puhle: I don't categorize them in good or bad, I think there's a fine line between good and bad, and I- Andrew McGregor: But if you're working with the fae, there's no line, there's just chaotic, right? Or whatever, right? Toni Puhle: That's exactly what I- Andrew McGregor: There's no morality, per se. Toni Puhle: ... That's exactly what I teach. And they really don't like me at times, they can be really onerous, the- Andrew McGregor: Sure. Toni Puhle: ... fae, to deal with, and they aren't really fond of me. But I- Andrew McGregor: When you were talking about sort of spirits, I think you said something like spirits in your garden or whatever, right? But the first thought that came to me was the idea, what's the message? "Get off my land." They're like "Why'd you build this crap here? Get out of here. Why isn't it wild?" Toni Puhle: ... I had a problem when I moved in this house at the beginning, because I stepped over some lines in the garden. And my youngest can actually see elementals, and he saw quite a few in the garden who weren't really pleased with our presence. Andrew McGregor: Right. Toni Puhle: But going back to good, bad, dark, light, it's all a different level or a different vibration, and I deal in vibrations rather than what's good or what's bad. If something has a vibration that I am uncomfortable with, it doesn't necessarily mean it's bad. I have had higher beings, I don't know what you want to call them, come in who actually, your instant reaction is "Oh my God, what on earth is this?" But it's a being that can help you on your path, not necessarily something who's there to do harm. Andrew McGregor: One of the things that I find myself more and more interested in when I'm talking to people around this kind of work these days is people are very focused on what is the message, right? Toni Puhle: Mm-hmm (affirmative). Andrew McGregor: Which is 100% understandable. But I'm actually always really curious about why this is going on. Especially if it's a more negative, for that person, experience, right? I'm like "Well, that's cool that this thing," or uncool or unpleasant or whatever it is, right, "That's interesting that there's this thing happening, and you're having an unpleasant experience with it," and certainly we can deal with that, there are plenty of ways to resolve that. Andrew McGregor: But what I'm most interested in, because I'm like, "Why is that happening? What's the mechanism that's causing that to occur?" Because these things, they're not random. It's very rare that a person strolls down the street and acquires a random thing, if people walk down the street and acquire a random thing, it's because of something in their energy that permits that or encourages that. Toni Puhle: Yeah. Andrew McGregor: But they're also not necessarily destined in the way that people also talk about that, right? People are like "Well, it just had to be that this thing showed up at this time to make this happen." It's like maybe, possibly, but often there are other reasons at play. So I'm always really fascinated at sort of the mechanisms of why that happened, why has it happened now, what are the situations that brought this about? It's like your physics mind, right? It's my sleuth mind, I'm like "Okay" ... Toni Puhle: What I don't understand is why everybody thinks there's always a message, or why they always have to be sent to the light. There's instant reaction, "Oh, we need to get rid of them." And again, going back to my beliefs in quantum physics, the field theory, I really think it has something to do with fields, and the filed in which spirit are, the field in which we are, coexisting somehow. I obviously can't explain it until a good physicist pulls his finger out, but I did actually write into a podcast and ask one of these CERN physicists why or how we can explain this quantum entanglement and whether that could explain me doing something and then it having a ripple effect at your end, for example. They answered, but they don't know the answer. Andrew McGregor: For sure. Toni Puhle: So I want to know why. I'm like you, I don't necessarily need to hear a message. Andrew McGregor: Yeah. I think that this idea of messages and the universe constantly talking to us and so on, it is and it isn't, but I think that it's, why would it be different than all the input of ... I live in Toronto, I live in a very big, metropolitan center, right? There's a constant input of information, right? Toni Puhle: Yes, that's exactly it. Andrew McGregor: 99.99% of it is noise. Toni Puhle: That's exactly it. Andrew McGregor: Some days 100% of it is noise. Toni Puhle: Mm-hmm (affirmative). Andrew McGregor: It's not for me- Toni Puhle: That's right. Andrew McGregor: ... I'm just around and it's happening. Toni Puhle: And that's where Hoʻopo comes back in again, because it is that white noise, that constant white noise. And whether it's white noise from spirits or white noise on the physical level of life, it is still white noise. And only when we are free of all that constant information can we actually hear what we need to hear. Andrew McGregor: Mm-hmm (affirmative). For sure, right? So a lot of the questions, the other thing here was this question, right, or this idea of intention in the questions. A lot of questions that sort of centered around how intentions impact readings, how does being clear about intention affect the process, so on and so on. How does, for you, right, so the void state is, sounds like a very neutral state, right? Toni Puhle: Yes. Andrew McGregor: You're not actively generating anything, because you want to sort of be- Toni Puhle: Received. Andrew McGregor: ... be present, and/or receive, right? Toni Puhle: Mm-hmm (affirmative), true. Andrew McGregor: So what's the active component of that, what's the intention component around your practice or your life in that? Toni Puhle: I teach to nail down intention so far so as if you were a lawyer. Andrew McGregor: Uh-huh (affirmative). Toni Puhle: So I am a huge Judge Judy fan, and I will watch her just to see how she nails down people so they can't give a squiffy answer. But the reason I do that is not because of going against void or anything like that, it's because you can't go wrong. If you have asked a clear question, you can expect what kind of answer. So when you are learning to read cards, when you are learning to do anything, if you are clear in your intention, it's for you only, it's you that wants the answer. So you are doing it for yourself to make sure that there is not an inch of leverage in the cards and their interpretation so that you can be 100% sure that you've nailed that predictive read. Because if your intention is skewy in the first place, it's for your mind only. How can your mind be understanding an answer if it hasn't been clear on what it's asking? Andrew McGregor: So number one, go watch Judge Judy everybody, get yourself an education. Toni Puhle: Yeah, exactly. Andrew McGregor: I love it. There are lots of things that are ... I learn from so many different places. And I remember way back in the sort of newsless days of the internet, I was on this Thelemic group and there was this person there who, I don't know, they had a PhD in something or other, and all they would do though was they would just read people's posts, and then explain the logical fallacy in their statement, right? Toni Puhle: Okay. Andrew McGregor: And I spent a long time reading a lot of posts from this person, and taking notes, literally, I'd be like "Oh, that's a neat one, what's that one? That's a neat one, what's that? Oh look, this is where I do that," until I started seeing them in the rest of my life, the logical fallacies. Because we think that we are, it's easy to feel clear, it's easy to think that we know what we're asking or how we're asking it, right? Toni Puhle: Mm-hmm (affirmative). Andrew McGregor: But it's so woodgy-woodgy in our brains, like it's not as crystal clear as we think at all. Toni Puhle: I also think, too, because I speak, well, three languages, I think when you are a language-speaker you understand the nuances in language a lot more than somebody who is just a pure English speaker. That does not bemean in any way, I just mean you understand that there aren't words that exactly incorporate the meaning of what you're trying to intend or come across with. Andrew McGregor: For sure. Toni Puhle: So what our intention is may not be clear to somebody who's sat next to us, which means, in turn, it may not be clear when we lay the cards. So if we learn how to formulate our language as if it were a legal document, then you are covering all the bases to make sure that you have clarity when it comes to the answer. Andrew McGregor: That makes a ton of sense to me. It reminds me of, there's an author called Milan Kundera, wrote a book called The Unbearable Lightness of Being, but they wrote other books, I can't remember the specific ones now. But a lot of their books sort of start with this thing, they're like "Well, if you spoke Czech, there's this word. And this word kind of means this." And then the whole story is an explanation of that, and when they circle back a the end of the book and be like "See? Blah. This word." Toni Puhle: Yeah. Well I've noticed it most in speaking German, obviously. They will speak English with a different nuance than I will speak German. There will be the same words when you look at them in the dictionary, but they mean different things, they feel different. So when you say one word in English and you say the translation in German, it will feel different, and that means the message is already on a different level. Andrew McGregor: No, for sure. Yeah, absolutely. So intention as clarity of question, right? Toni Puhle: Mm-hmm (affirmative), yes. Andrew McGregor: Intention as clarify of self around question. Toni Puhle: Yes. Andrew McGregor: And Judge Judy will teach us the way. Toni Puhle: Yes. Andrew McGregor: I feel like we need to make some saint candles for Judge Judy now. "Please Judge Judy, give me the clarity to ask a solid question and get a solid answer." Toni Puhle: I watch her just so I can see how she nails them down. Andrew McGregor: For sure, right? And I think that that's such an interesting and helpful process. When I read for people, there's definitely these times where they ask this question and I'm like "So what I hear in your question is that you want me to tell you that everything's going to be okay." And then they're like "Well, maybe." I'm like "Well, that's 100% fair. Welcome to being human, we all have that. But also if we open the cards, I can't tell you what we're going to see." Toni Puhle: I think it's- Andrew McGregor: We're going to see what we see. Toni Puhle: ... similar to, I have a few pet hates. They're not really hates at all, but there are questions that I think a newbie who is reading shouldn't use at the beginning, because it harms their future predictive reads. For example, "Should I do something?" Andrew McGregor: Yes. Toni Puhle: Who is to say whether you should or you shouldn't? Who is spirit to decide what you should or shouldn't do? Andrew McGregor: Well, I have an idea about that. Toni Puhle: Go ahead. Andrew McGregor: So I actually love that question. Toni Puhle: Really? Andrew McGregor: Yes. Right? But, I love that question because of my religious practice. So as a priest in the Lucumi tradition, in Afro-Cuban lineage who has studied and practices divination within that system and so on, the idea of should we do this thing rests in the beliefs that we have some kind of destiny, that we're not here with an open-ended clean slate of everything that anything could be on target, but only certain parts of the buffet are actually in a real deep level of alignment with who we are and why we chose to incarnate at this time. Andrew McGregor: So for me, the should question, especially in the religious context, is one that makes a bunch of sense to me, because I feel like there are things that at certain decisions we should and shouldn't do if we want to stay in alignment with that actual purpose. Toni Puhle: But is that not in line with your own guide and already having the relationship and the knowledge of your guides, who they are, who your ancestors are, and this long learning process of understanding who they are and that they are working in your best interest, rather than somebody who's coming to the table and asking the "Should I?" question and not knowing who they are requesting that information from. Andrew McGregor: I mean I think it really depends on what the nature of the should is, or the nature of that question is. I was just talking about this with my elder recently, because we were talking about the context in which me making sure that I'm divining about stuff makes sense for me in the coming year, because of what came out in the reading. And it makes sense for me to think about all those things, it makes sense for me to be clear about them. It makes a ton of sense to not use the should question as a scapegoat or permission or abdication of control ... Toni Puhle: Yeah, exactly that, mm-hmm (affirmative). Andrew McGregor: But it comes to a place where there are things that are beyond knowing, we butt up against that mystery, and does it make sense for me to make this change in my business in a certain direction? And I have a bunch of ideas- Toni Puhle: But you see, that's a slight nuance in question, asking whether it makes sense to do something rather than asking for the permission to do something. Andrew McGregor: ... I don't think of should ... I think that some people use should questions- Toni Puhle: Maybe it's a language thing again. Andrew McGregor: ... Well, I think some people use should questions as point of permission, right? Toni Puhle: Yes. Andrew McGregor: "Should I break up with Betty?" Look, if you don't like Betty, break up with Betty. Toni Puhle: Exactly. Andrew McGregor: Just get over it. If you're already asking that question, there's something you need to figure out there and the cards don't need to tell you that. But I think that there are lots of questions that, "Should I do this thing?" We could phrase them in different ways, "Is this in alignment with my true self to do this?" So on, right? "Is this the time for this to happen?" But for me should, and by the time I get to a should question, it's only those things. It's only the level of question. Toni Puhle: Well that's perfect for me as long as you have that understanding already. I think it's coming to the table and asking permission to do something that I ... The only reason I see it as an issue in new readers is because they see it as a strict yes or no, "Yes you should," "No, you shouldn't." And there is, then, in the answer, it's often unclear, then, to a new reader, whether the cards are positive 100% yes or whether they are a nuance of yes, or whether they are a strict no. And I think the intention when they sit down to ask those questions when starting colors the read, then, afterwards with their own emotional projection or on ... It allows a looser read, or allows emotions to come in. Andrew McGregor: Yeah. I'm definitely with you. If you're going to ask a question like that, there's no space for ambiguity- Toni Puhle: No. Andrew McGregor: ... in the question, in the process. There's no space for open-endedness. It's like look, I'm going to do this or I'm not. Am I going to do it? Toni Puhle: Yes. Andrew McGregor: Does it make sense, yes or no? And that's where diligence and discipline ... Toni Puhle: Yes. Andrew McGregor: In the reading of the cards. Because for me it's like, if I'm going to ask a yes or no question, I'm only going to read the cards in a certain way. I might go do another spread if I want other information. Toni Puhle: That is it, exactly that. Andrew McGregor: But I'm like, that's it. Toni Puhle: And actually, in my book, I used the yes and no question, which uses the least cards in the deck, I did it as an advanced spread in the back of the book for the reason that they have to, or readers have to understand that there is a difference in the way that you're reading. Andrew McGregor: Yeah. And just to pull it full circle, maybe, I think that your capacity, anyone's capacity to be good at those kinds of questions rests on your ability to be clear about what you're asking and your ability to be centered in what you would call the void space. Toni Puhle: Yes. Andrew McGregor: Right, or what I would call [crosstalk 00:54:23] different- Toni Puhle: Yes to that. Andrew McGregor: ... because if you can do those two things, then you can rocket out with that stuff. Toni Puhle: 100%. Andrew McGregor: But if you can't do those things, then it's like, you're moving towards my metaphor of how Ouija boards work for people who don't have a lot of experience with spirits, right? It's like, pick the busiest town square that you got, go there, put on a blindfold, and then out loud ask for an answer to your question. Wait for somebody to tell you, and then wait a while and leave, never knowing who that was. Who was that person? Do they have something valuable to add? Toni Puhle: It's also similar to dowsing, because we all can influence the outcome of dowsing by our own experiences, and carrying that into the question. Andrew McGregor: Yep, yep. And our subconscious and shadow have direct control to our nervous system, so therefore it's pretty easy for unresolved stuff to make its way there too, right? Toni Puhle: Exactly. Andrew McGregor: Yeah. Toni Puhle: Yes. Andrew McGregor: So it's been great chatting with you today, but I think we're kind of hitting the point where we should start wrapping this up though, even though I think I could sit and chat with you all day. It's going to just sound like this "I agree with you. Yes, I agree with you." Toni Puhle: I agree. Andrew McGregor: "I agree with you." Toni Puhle: Definitely. Andrew McGregor: So people should definitely be following you and checking out where you're at and stuff. Where should they come? Where's the best place for people to find you on the internets? Toni Puhle: I'm all over social media as @TheCardGeek is my hashtag, and if you look for the World Divination Association, you will find me on most platforms. Andrew McGregor: Excellent. Well thank you so much for taking the time today, and for ... Yeah. Organizing your schedule. Toni Puhle: Thank you for having me. Andrew McGregor: Yeah, my pleasure.

Explore Matthew 9:9. “As Jesus went on from there, He saw a man called Matthew, sitting in the tax collector’s booth; and He *said to him, ‘Follow Me!’ And he got up and followed Him.” Consider Matthew 10:1-4 and the calling of His twelve disciples. Consider that all kinds of people need to be discipled. Explore the text of Matthew 10:16-18. Discipleship must be very realistic as to the world as it is. We read in Matthew 10:24-25, “A disciple is not above his teacher, nor a slave above his master. It is enough for the disciple that he become like his teacher, and the slave like his master.” In Matthew 10:26 we also read, “Therefore do not fear them, for there is nothing concealed that will not be revealed, or hidden that will not be known.” Jesus tells us in Matthew 10:34-36, “Do not think that I came to bring peace on the earth; I did not come to bring peace, but a sword. For I came to set a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law; and a man’s enemies will be the members of his household.” Jesus is making godly people who live in a bad world. We read in Matthew 16:24-25, “Then Jesus said to His disciples, ‘If anyone wishes to come after Me, he must deny himself, and take up his cross and follow Me. For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it; but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it.’” Why does Jesus tell the rich young ruler in Chapter 19 to sell everything? Is that normative? What kind of people was Jesus the toughest with? Consider that as we disciple, we disciple out of grace. A suggested informational source is the WDA or Worldwide Discipleship Association. View a chart on discipleship models in use including the model of pastor to elder, elders to pastor, community groups with couples, and shepherding groups. Randy Pope in his book, INsourcing: Bringing Discipleship Back to the Local Church holds that small groups are about “knowledge transfer". View the chart from his book comparing small groups with LOLMD or Journey Groups. Consider that the only model we have in the Bible for a discipleship group is found in Titus 2.
