“It ends with the banks looking like they did at the end of World War II... half of their book was government bonds,” says R. Christopher Whalen, investment banker and author. In a conversation with Daniela Cambone, he breaks down the systemic risks emerging in the treasury market. “Today the treasury market is basically a carry trade with a lot of hedge funds using 100 to 1 leverage. That's the market for treasury debt,” he explains, pointing to the fragility of the current system. Whalen also argues that the Bretton Woods framework has eroded and that the dollar's dominance is waning. “This dollar Imperium has run its course.” He believes central banks — including the U.S. Federal Reserve — should diversify their reserves to include gold alongside major currencies like the dollar, euro, and yen. He views gold as a strategic reserve asset with untapped financial utility. “I hope... the BIS is going to recognize gold as a high-quality liquid asset... it would become eligible to be collateral in swaps,” he says. Key Topics: - President Trump and Powell were going to cross swords.- The Fed struggles to manage the economy and rates.- Multifamily real estate is the subprime today.- The Fed should be holding gold.- The dollar is attractive because of our marketplace.- National debt has tripled in 15 years.

As Paul moves into a new and distinct section from what has come before, it is right for us to think that all of the doctrine which Paul covered in the epistle to Rome has as a theological foundation the revelation of the true gospel of Jesus Christ, the one and only Savior of the world. Beginning in chapter 13 Paul emphasizes the importance of unity and mutual welcome and acceptance among believers, particularly regarding non-essential matters of faith or what we might call scruples. Paul addresses the disputes that naturally arise between members of the church over matters such as dietary practices and the observance of special days, urging Christians not to judge too harshly, respond uncharitably, or despise one another based on personal convictions in these areas.Worship with us at Reformation OPC Gastonia!Each Lord's Day9:30am & 5:30pm203 Rhyne Oakland Road, Gastonia, NC, 28098(704) 931-8094Our website: https://refopc.net/ropcgastonia@gmail.com

BUFFALO, NY — April 7, 2025 — A new #research paper was #published in Aging (Aging-US) on March 18, 2025, in Volume 17, Issue 3, titled “Mitochondrial oxidative stress or decreased autophagy in osteoblast lineage cells is not sufficient to mimic the deleterious effects of aging on bone mechanoresponsiveness.” Researchers from the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, led by first author Ana Resende-Coelho and corresponding authors Melda Onal and Maria Almeida, investigated why bones become less responsive to exercise as people age. They studied two well-known aging-related cellular changes: oxidative stress (a buildup of harmful molecules inside cells) and reduced autophagy (a slowdown in the cell's ability to clean out and recycle damaged parts) to determine whether these could explain the decline in bone strength. Their findings revealed that these changes alone are not enough to account for the reduced bone-building response seen with aging. Physical activity is known to strengthen bones by creating mechanical stress, which activates bone cells like osteocytes to promote new bone formation. However, this process becomes less effective with age, increasing the risk of bone loss and fractures in older adults. The study aimed to uncover why this response weakens over time by focusing on specific age-related changes inside bone-forming cells. “The bone response to loading is less effective with aging, but the cellular and molecular mechanisms responsible for the impaired mechanoresponsiveness remain unclear.” The research team used a well-established mouse model in which pressure was applied to the tibia, simulating the effects of exercise. As expected, bones from older mice showed a weaker response compared to those of younger mice. However, when the researchers examined younger mice genetically modified to have either high oxidative stress or impaired autophagy, as seen in aging, their bones still responded normally to mechanical loading. The researchers also found that damage to the bone's osteocyte network, a system of cells that helps sense and respond to mechanical forces, did not prevent a healthy bone-building response in mice with autophagy deficiencies. This challenges the long-standing idea that deterioration of this cell network is a main cause of age-related bone decline. These results are significant because they eliminate two widely suspected causes of the aging skeleton's reduced responsiveness to exercise. While oxidative stress and autophagy dysfunction are common in older bone, they are not solely responsible for its reduced ability to grow stronger under physical stress. The authors suggest that future studies should explore other possible factors, such as changes in energy metabolism or how bone cells communicate. Overall, this study shows that bone aging is more complex than previously thought. Protecting bone health in older adults may require new strategies that go beyond targeting oxidative stress or autophagy.

He sees a "healthy jobs market" heading into Friday's employment data. Michael Green doesn't agree, pointing to a layoff surge and weaker hiring numbers as warning signs. He says large employers are cutting back due to macro uncertainties.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

Weaker expectations for the future led to a decline in farmer sentiment in March as the Purdue University-CME Group Ag Economy Barometer index fell 12 points to a reading of 140, down from 152 a month earlier. Purdue ag economists James Mintert and Michael Langemeier share their insight into the results of the March 2025 Ag Economy Barometer survey, conducted from March 10-14, in this episode of the Purdue Commercial AgCast. They analyze key changes, including a 12-point drop in the index, driven primarily by a decrease in future expectations. The episode covers impacts of trade policies, tariff uncertainties, and their effects on corn and soybean prices. The discussion also touches on farm capital investment, farmland value expectations, anticipated government compensation, and producer sentiments towards inflation and interest rates for 2025. The Ag Economy Barometer sentiment index is calculated each month from 400 U.S. agricultural producers' responses to a telephone survey. Further details on the full report is available at https://purdue.edu/agbarometer. Slides and the transcript from the discussion can be found at https://purdue.ag/agcast184. You can find the FULL video episode on our YouTube channel.

Christine Short and Nick Raich talk expectations for the upcoming earnings season. Nick likes to use the “early reporters” as a barometer for the overall season. He sees a lower number of companies “than normal” lowering outlooks and missing estimates. Christine sees healthcare leading, like GILD, BMY and LLY. “The margin by which they're beating” is also lower, though.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

 Do you ever feel like the Tin man needing some WD 40 just to get moving? Let's talk about what causes joint pain and how to prevent and treat it.  I'm Dr.Vickie Petz Kasper. If you're ready to take control of your health, you're in the right  place. Whether you're focused on prevention or you're trying to manage a condition. I'll give you practical steps to start your own journey toward better health because healthy looks great on you.  Episode 164. Why do my joints hurt?  When I sit for a while the urge to groan when I stand up comes pretty naturally and I'm really trying hard to fight it, but I've put  quite a bit of strain on my joints over the years, and I'm not alone. One in five adults have some form of arthritis. Back in the day, old people called it rheumatism. I haven't heard that term in a while, but now I am old people. But rheumatism is used synonymously with arthritis. It's a catchall term and it doesn't necessarily refer to rheumatoid arthritis. And listen, there are over 100 different types of arthritis, but today we're only going to focus on osteoarthritis because it's by far the most common affecting over 32 million people in the United States.  And the prevalence is increasing, making it the third most common disease that is going upward behind high blood pressure and dementia. Grandpa can tell it's going to rain because his rheumatism is acting up, and in fact, damp weather can make arthritis pain flare,  but it's more than just aches and pains. Osteoarthritis is serious. In fact, it's the leading cause of disability in the United States. It's also expensive. The price tag is reported to be over $150 billion a year. Some of that is lost wages and some is because of joint replacement, and it is important to see a doctor and have your pain evaluated.   Let's go to mini medical school and learn about joints. No, not that kind of joint. Although CBD oil and marijuana have been studied for joint pain and they are effective - every bit as effective as placebo, that  smells like weed. Go figure. But I meant the articulation between bones and other structures that allow us to move. Now that I think about it, the word joint can refer to your banking account, something you smoke, a fastener to hold the roof on your house, or in this case, a place where bones meet. So let's look at all the players that gather in this meeting place besides bones. You've got ligaments and tendons that hold the joint together, and both of these are strong bands of connective tissue. The ligaments connect bone to bone. And that supports and limits movement while tendons connect muscle to bone and that controls movement. You've also got cartilage that covers the surface where two or more bones meet and that's designed to reduce friction. You know when two or more are gathered, there's always friction, so you need something to smooth things out. Another structure that helps reduce friction is a fluid filled sac called the bursa, and this is filled with a thick, clear, sticky fluid called synovial fluid that is secreted by the synovial membrane and that lines the joint and seals it into a capsule. And there are lots of different types of joints besides the ones I mentioned earlier. Some of them move in just one direction, like your elbow, and those are called hinge joints. Others allow rotation like your neck. That's called a pivot joint. Shoulders and hips are the ball and socket joints to allow movement in several directions. And the wrist is similar, but without pivots, so it's called an ellipsoidal joint. Okay. Now you've completed orthopedics 101. Oh, wait. Since we're discussing osteoarthritis today, you probably need to know that osteo means bone. And you've probably heard people say that they had a knee replacement because it was bone on bone. Well, osteoarthritis occurs when the cartilage is gone, and it's a gradual process that occurs over many years usually.   You probably know that the biggest risk factor for osteoarthritis is age. But listen, it's not a normal part of aging due to wear and tear, though clearly it can develop where there's been a prior injury. It's hard to think about it when you're young and doing back handsprings or shooting hoops or making tackles, but often those old injuries do eventually catch up with you. But, even without an injury, repetitive occupational or avocational activities can leave their mark. But get this, being sedentary does its own damage. Does that mean that runners are destined to ruin their knees? Actually no. Even though they're asking a lot from that three to five millimeter layer of cartilage, genetics plays a role too. So choose your parents very wisely. But even if your parents have osteoarthritis, it doesn't mean that you will, because lifestyle is a huge factor. And since I'm here to talk to you about lifestyle medicine. Let's talk about the things you can control, and we're mostly going to focus on two pillars of lifestyle medicine, and that's physical fitness and diet.  If you have joint pain, you've got to keep moving because if you stop, you might not be able to start again. Being fit helps with pain and stiffness. It improves your joint mobility, and all of that helps with quality of life, and mood. But here's the deal. Your skeletal system consists of joints, bones, and muscles. So if people with arthritis don't maintain that musculoskeletal strength, it leads to a whole cascade of events.  Weaker muscles leads to less balance that can result in a decline in function, which leads to less stability and that can result in falls with injuries like brain trauma and hip fractures. In fact, 95% of hip fractures are caused by falls, and falls are the leading cause of disability and death in seniors and exercise helps prevent falls. Not only does it keep you stronger, it boosts your confidence because oddly enough, people who are afraid of falling actually fall more than the less cautious people. Now, I'm not telling you to be reckless, but I am suggesting that you exercise. And get this strengthening muscles even reduces joint pain. And if you have arthritis, one of the best exercises is walking. Tai Chi is also recommended, and I've visited China before and it's very common to see elderly people. I'm talking about really elderly people gathered in outdoor spaces participating in this ancient martial art. It involves slow, continuous movement that is specifically tailored to improve strength and balance. But if you currently don't have access to a park in China, then maybe you could find a YouTube video and even better find a friend and a park nearby  and use a YouTube video.  And if you have access to a swimming pool. Oh, swimming is such an excellent exercise for people with arthritis.  But whatever you do, don't do nothing. Keep moving. Park in that spot that's furthest from the door. Don't ever drive to the mailbox. Find something you enjoy and keep moving. Inactivity is the very worst thing you can do if your joints hurt. Now, of course, you should consult your doctor or healthcare provider first. And I'm not talking about joint pain from an acute injury. I'm talking about old fashioned aches and pains. Any joint in the body can be affected, but the most common ones are knees, hands and hips. Check, check, check. Actually, my knees are pretty good, but I definitely have hip pain and intermittently pain in my hands.  But guess what? It is not from cracking my knuckles. That's a myth. Osteoarthritis is referred to as wear and tear arthritis, and that makes sense. I delivered a lot of babies with these hands and did a lot of surgeries, and probably gymnastics took a toll on my hip as well. But listen, you don't have to abuse your joints to get osteoarthritis. You can also get it from neglect. Being sedentary increases your risk for... you name it. So if you sit all day, set your watch and at least get up and move around every hour. So we've covered age, previous injury, repetitive motion overuse, and inactivity as risk factors for osteoarthritis. But you wanna know what else puts a lot of strain on your joints.  Obesity. In fact, weight loss can really help with osteoarthritis, especially of the knees, if only it were that simple. But get this, losing one pound takes four pounds of pressure off your knees.  There are lots of different treatments from ointments to over-the-counter pain relievers, prescription medications physical therapy and surgery.  But sometimes you can't fix joint pain and you have to focus on managing it instead of trying to cure it. Whatever you do, take care of your body by being fit, active and maintaining a healthy weight, which by the way depends way more on diet than exercise  and eating a joint friendly diet.  So what kind of diet should you eat for arthritis? You know, there's the DASH diet for high blood pressure and the MIND diet for cognitive health, the Mediterranean diet for heart health. But is there a diet for joint health? Not specifically, but all of the above diets have some things in common. They reduce inflammation and they promote whole unprocessed foods and avoiding foods that make inflammation worse.  You know those that are easy to grab and eat. You do need protein for your joints, but don't fall into the trap of buying packaged food that touts 30 grams of protein on the front label. My mom kept a little carton of a protein drink that her friends had recommended because it had 30 grams of protein.  I reminded her don't pay attention to the front of the package. It's just marketing. Turn it over and read the nutrition label. I really think you should go back and listen to my episode on this. It's one of my favorites, and I put a link in the show notes.   But if you eat a well-balanced diet, you don't need more protein. Now, I might argue that if you get your protein from meat and dairy. You need better protein.  Things like whole grains, soy products, beans, legumes, lentils, nuts and seeds. And did you know that fruits and vegetables contain protein? Plus they have fiber, which is crucial for weight loss and a healthy gut. And they don't contain bad fat and cholesterol. If you want to know more about growing your own protein, listen to my interview with Jill Mc Sheehy on her podcast, the Beginner's Gardener.  And she has a follow-up episode on how to actually grow that stuff in your garden. So if you're into gardening, this is a don't miss episode. And yes, there's a link in the show notes.   Also, certain spices like garlic and turmeric may help with inflammation and joint pain, but please just add them to your food. I know, I know taking a supplement seems so much easier, but it's not better. Green tea and coffee also have some anti-inflammatory properties, so drink up. But only in the morning, so it doesn't interfere with your sleep. And even though we're focusing on diet and fitness today, poor sleep, loneliness and stress all contribute to chronic inflammation. And of course, smoking is not good for your joints either. Look, inflammation is a normal process in your body designed to help your body heal, but chronic inflammation is terrible for your body. Plants contain phytochemicals that lower inflammation like antioxidants, fiber polyphenols, and Omega-3 fatty acids and the Mediterranean diet and the dash diet. Also focus on whole foods that contain these, and it's great for your heart too. Use unprocessed olive oil when you cook and think variety. Focus on adding more plants and more colors to your diet. It, but the standard American diet is really the complete opposite. It's pro-inflammatory things like sugar, which can hide in so many places like protein drinks. In fact, that carton that my mom gave me contained a ton of refined sugar, and that's what we're talking about, refined sugar, not whole fruits, fried foods, saturated fats, and dairy and meat - especially processed meats and lunch meats. That includes bacon, but it also includes deli turkey, cheeses, and most oils, which are in mayonnaises and salad dressings. Fast foods, processed snacks, donuts, pizza, french fries. Listen, if you go to the grocery store and buy something and you have to fight that little plastic bag to get it open to put your produce in there, it's probably good for you. But if you just pull it off the shelf and it's in a box or a package. Beware and at least turn it over and read the nutrition label and ignore the front. And don't fall for marketing.  Processed carbohydrates and refined greens are found in breads, pastries cakes, pasta, cookies, crackers, and energy bars. You know, they're just cookies in disguise.  Did I just describe your pantry? Hmm? Let me add canned soups, which are extraordinarily high in sodium. And all things that contain MSG and artificial sweeteners like aspartame can also worsen inflammation as well as alcohol. What about gluten?  I probably need to do a whole episode to discuss that, but gluten is found in processed grains as well as whole grains, and some people do have a sensitivity. I believe most people need whole grains in their diet, and yes, there are some that do not contain gluten, but be smart about your choices. There are lots of packaged foods that shout gluten free on the front, and they're just gluten-free junk food. What I suggest instead is pay attention to the connection between your diet and your joints. For me, it's chips and cheese dip that make my joints hurt worse. Maybe it's the cheese with all that saturated fat, all that salt or the bad oils that they're cooked in. But chips and cheese dip are not whole unprocessed foods. They aren't healthy for me or you, and there's a price to pay for eating them. So if you do figure out something that makes your joints hurt worse, eliminate that from your diet and see if it helps.  The bottom line is that plants are good for your joints and they're good for your health and healthy. Looks great on you.    LINKS: Grow Your Own Protein: The Beginner's Garden Podcast READ A NUTRITION LABEL Join my email list for more resources and to get each episode in your inbox.  The information contained in this podcast is for educational purposes only and is not considered to be a substitute for medical advice.

Today we continue with our series on effective limit-setting with adolescents. Some parents think when they lose their temper with teenagers they "hate to do it" but it "needed to happen." Jessica and Dr. Ken talk about how yelling only confirms a teenager's suspicion in the first place... that you're a bully not really a parent. Instead we talk about ways to avoid losing your temper and what to do if you still occasionally get pretty angry with your teenager.

This week, the value of the American dollar continued to decline. The plunge has been attributed to market volatility over President Donald Trump's on-again, off-again tariffs. But there are some on Trump's economic team who have floated wanting to weaken the dollar intentionally. FT economics columnist Gillian Tett and Unhedged host Katie Martin join to discuss why the chaos that's keeping investors worried may be a feature, not a bug.Mentioned in this podcast:Unhedged PodcastWhat a Mar-a-Lago accord could look likeSign up for the FT's Swamp Notes newsletter hereSwamp Notes is produced by Katya Kumkova.

What if your weight loss efforts were actually working against you? Terrible, right?! In this episode, I break down the hidden dangers of traditional weight loss strategies and ways to shift your focus to improving your body composition over weight loss to achieve the results you want. Weight loss has become synonymous with being really healthy but there's more than meets the eye here. Skinny does not automatically indicate health! It's so important to learn how to lose weight while protecting your muscles or else they may shrink in the process. I explain the two categories of weight loss and how we can change the conversation around it to be more effective. Once you understand that not all weight loss is good weight loss, you can really begin to see how not all calorie deficits are the same. I explain what happens when muscle gets destroyed. Once you begin to experience weight loss, it's so important to not back down from workouts but to keep pushing. I talk through the risks of homeostasis on your brain and body during this process. If you follow my strategies for calculating your ideal calorie deficit, I promise you that weight loss can be comfortable and straightforward!You can get FREE access to my 4-week Strength Without Stress program right now!

Only two months into 2025, Zillow has significantly changed its original housing market prediction. With rising inventory, suppressed buyer demand from high mortgage rates, and sluggish market sentiment, Zillow's home price forecast has been downgraded. Why the change, and what data is leading Zillow to project little or no home price growth this year? Orphe Divounguy, Senior Economist at Zillow, is on to share. With a downgraded forecast, the question becomes: is the housing market leveling off, or could we be in store for home price dips? How will rent prices be affected with the massive wave of multifamily construction finally starting to taper off? With less supply coming online, will these units get absorbed, resulting in higher rents for single-family homes? Have we finally reached the supply-demand equilibrium, putting the housing market on pause? What's the one thing that could reignite buyer demand and lead to home price appreciation? Or, is this the new normal, and with little interest rate relief in sight, are we headed for years of a stagnant housing market? We're getting Orphe's expert take! In This Episode We Cover Zillow's new February 2025 housing market forecast (and the sizable home price forecast downgrade) Why home prices are stagnating, and the one crucial factor causing this Mortgage rate predictions and whether we'll see some real rate relief this year Single-family and multifamily rent price predictions for 2025 (which will see the most growth?) What should investors do: sit on the sidelines or capitalize on current conditions? And So Much More!

Dune: Prophecy delves into the past, 10,000 years prior to the original Dune series and the latest films by Denis Villeneuve. HBO Max's new series clearly apes the political intrigue of their previous shows like Game of Thrones and House of the Dragon, ultimately Dune: Prophecy fails in getting the audience emotionally invested in the characters. While beautifully shot and designed in the vein of Villeneuve's Dune aesthetic, the plot feels rushed and unresolved, leading to an emotionally unsatisfying conclusion in spite of strong acting.

Bea Chiem says the consumer is starting to weaken. She says companies either need to discount products or provide enough value and innovation to justify expensive prices. Bea argues that unlike last time Trump imposed tariffs, companies have less pricing power, leaving them more vulnerable. She thinks investment-grade credit will stay stable, but non-investment grade could be in trouble. ======== Schwab Network ======== Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Many who follow Russia's invasion of Ukraine have come to the same conclusion: Russia can defeat Ukraine with its “incredible” strength. However, Russia is much weaker than even many in the American media let on. The Russian military is bleeding troops for minor gains on the battlefield, running out of men to fight, and has so little equipment it's turning to movie studios to recoup donated Soviet military equipment from the 1950s. How long can Putin continue his illegal war on Ukraine? How can Trump leverage Russia's weakness to bring Putin to the negotiating table? George Barros is the Russia Team & Geospatial Intelligence Team Lead on the Russia and Ukraine portfolio at the Institute for the Study of War. George's work focuses on open-source research and geospatial analysis of Russia's war in Ukraine, Russian information operations, and Ukrainian politics. Prior to joining ISW, he worked in the U.S. House of Representatives as an advisor on Ukraine and Russia for a member of the Foreign Affairs Committee.Read the transcript here.

If you've ever felt the world pulling you down into the dark—this one's for you. In Episode 154 of With Love, Danielle, we're talking discernment: why I have a “Good for Me/Bad for Me” list to help me stay grounded, expansive, and connected to my Higher Truth—and why you should too.  Think of it as the spiritual version of an emergency room intake form—a check-in with your soul to help you fill up with Light in these dark times.  ✨ Here's what we cover in this episode: Why discernment is a form of devotion—and a radical act of self-love. What's on my “Good for Me” list (and what I did this week that I knew was “Bad for Me”) Why sensitivity isn't a weakness—it's a superpower when embraced with intention. This is about listening deeply to what nourishes you, so you can show up more fully for the world. We'll close with the Shantideva Prayer: May we be a source of healing, comfort, protection and refuge for others. Because when you dedicate yourself to supporting others, life magnetizes all the wellness, Compassion, and resources you need. With Love, Danielle Mentioned in this episode:

Original air date: February 27, 2024 Donald Trump's victory over Nikki Haley in the South Carolina GOP primary has sparked another round of punditry about his supposed political dominance. Yet the primaries have revealed his weaknesses with independents, and he clearly fears his legal travails are a major liability that will get worse. So what if Trump is weaker than he appears? We chatted about this with political scientist Julia Azari, co-author of a new piece arguing that the long shadow of his 2016 victory is still badly distorting our understanding of the present and the majority coalition that continues handing him and the MAGA movement defeat after defeat.

Is our obsession with optimization actually making us weaker?  In this episode of the Habits and Hustle podcast, I am joined by Michael Easter, author of "The Comfort Crisis" and "Scarcity Brain," to explore how modern society's relentless pursuit of wellness and optimization might be backfiring.  We discuss the possibility that the more requirements we add to basic human functions (like sleeping, exercising, or working), the more fragile we become. We also dive into elaborate morning routines, sleep-tracking devices, how subtraction, not addition, might be the key to building real resilience in our overly-comfortable world, and the best way to end a day of intellectual work.  Michael Easter has made a career as a New York Times bestselling author by traveling the world to uncover practical ideas that help people live healthier, happier, and more remarkable lives. His research spans from war zones to the Arctic to the Bolivian jungle, where he's interviewed thousands of experts including Nobel laureates and world-class athletes. Easter shares these science-backed insights in his books, including Scarcity Brain and The Comfort Crisis, as well as in his newsletter, Two Percent with Michael Easter. His work has been adopted by professional sports teams, Fortune 500 companies, and elite military units to transform their approaches to physical health, mental well-being, and performance.
