Alles nur gefaked? Über Vortäuschung und Manipulation bei psychischen Beschwerden In dieser kontroversen Folge widmen sich Andreas und Werner einem heiklen, aber wichtigen Thema in der psychologischen Praxis: Der bewussten oder unbewussten Verzerrung von Krankheitssymptomen. Wie lässt sich zwischen echtem Leiden und übertriebener Darstellung unterscheiden? Wann werden Beschwerden heruntergespielt, wann überbetont? Die beiden Hosts beleuchten die verschiedenen Facetten dieses komplexen Phänomens - von der Simulation nicht vorhandener Symptome bis hin zur Bagatellisierung ernsthafter Probleme. Sie diskutieren, warum Menschen ihre Beschwerden manchmal verzerrt darstellen und welche Beweggründe dahinterstecken können. Dabei wird deutlich: Nicht jede Übertreibung ist bewusste Täuschung, und nicht jedes Herunterspielen ist mangelnde Krankheitseinsicht. Besonders spannend wird es, wenn die beiden ihre praktischen Erfahrungen teilen: Welche diagnostischen Instrumente und Beobachtungsmethoden helfen bei der Einschätzung? Wie können Diskrepanzen im Verhalten erkannt werden? Und welche Rolle spielen standardisierte Beschwerdevalidierungstests? Eine aufschlussreiche Episode für Fachleute und Interessierte, die zeigt, wie komplex die Unterscheidung zwischen authentischen und verzerrten Symptomdarstellungen sein kann - und warum eine sorgfältige Diagnostik so wichtig ist.

How Shinola is emphasizing its American design and manufacturing roots

Detroit-based luxury design brand Shinola sells everything from jewelry to bikes to journals. In 2019, it even opened a hotel in downtown Detroit. But the is currently laser-focused on refining the answer to the question, “What's the first thing you think of when you think of Shinola?” And it wants that to be watches.  “We lost that [focus on watches] for a little while,” said Kevin Wertz, CMO at Bedrock, the platform company that owns Shinola. Bedrock also owns the outerwear brand Filson.  Shinola, founded in 2011, quickly gained a following because it was bringing manufacturing jobs back to Detroit. In 2012, the brand opened a 12,000-square-foot watch factory in the city. Over the next few years, it used its expertise in design and craftsmanship to expand into new categories.  But in 2016, Shinola ran into a hurdle when the FTC ruled that the company could not use the tagline “Built in Detroit.” Even though Shinola has a watch factory in the U.S., its watches — like all watch brands — largely rely on imported parts. Now, Shinola's watches say “Built in Detroit with Swiss and imported parts.”   "We're going back to the idea that we are designing and assembling watches in downtown Detroit,” Wertz said.  Despite this, Shinola has found that the best way to tell its story is to do more showing, rather than telling. Wertz said the content that has performed the best for Shinola is raw photos and videos from its factories showing how its watches are made. "People say, 'I don't know what watches being made actually looks like,'” he said, regarding the interest. Wertz joined the Modern Retail podcast this week to talk about how Shinola is refining its brand story.

Homeschooling has the power to shape not just families, but entire communities. In this thought-provoking conversation, Dr. Myles Wertz (associate professor of theology and director of Baptist Studies at Abilene Christian University) joins HSLDA Attorney Will Estrada to explore Dr. Wertz's recent article in Christianity Today and his own personal homeschool journey. When parents choose homeschooling out of a desire to do what's best for their children, the ripple effects extend far beyond the family—fostering individuals who enrich their communities and drive positive change in society. “When we allow families to pursue homeschooling, we find that certain practices or ways of educating begin to bubble up from the surface that wouldn't have been discovered or wouldn't have been understood had there not been the room for homeschooling to exist. . .I think education needs to be more personalized and more attentive to the particular needs of students in nature. I think that's something that homeschooling can naturally do.”—Dr. Myles Werntz

The winds of existence often carry us to realms of insight and transformation, and today's conversation is a testament to the profundity of our journey. On this episode, we welcome Rebbeca Wertz, a courageous soul who has traversed the path of spiritual awakening, shedding light on the mysteries of pre-birth experiences and beyond.Rebbeca Wertz's journey began within the structured confines of the Mormon church, a faith that provided her with a foundation but ultimately left her seeking deeper truths. Her childhood was marred by trauma, and she found herself grappling with questions that the church could not answer. It was through this period of turmoil that she embarked on a quest for understanding, exploring various spiritual realms and diving into self-discovery.Her journey into spirituality intensified after discovering near-death experiences (NDEs) on endof.org. "I felt like I was remembering things I already knew," Rebbeca explains, describing her all-night reading sessions that catalyzed her spiritual awakening. This awakening opened her to divine encounters, including spontaneous Kundalini awakenings and contact with what she refers to as divine extraterrestrial beings.One of the most striking aspects of her story is her vivid pre-birth experiences.During a period of deep introspection, she recalled being in a room with her soul family, planning their lives and the challenges they would face. "I remember saying, I want to go down at this time and do that, and come into this family group," she recalls. This memory, albeit vague, gave her profound insight into her life's purpose and the trials she volunteered to undertake, including her abusive past.Rebbeca's descriptions are both fascinating and deeply moving. In another pre-birth memory, she found herself as a small, curious orb in a heavenly domain. She eagerly volunteered for a life on Earth, likening the experience to preparing for a roller coaster ride. "It was shown to me so I wouldn't freak out," she says, describing how she entered a light body and then a physical form, feeling the excitement and trepidation of her chosen journey.Her spiritual path has not been without its earthly challenges. From confronting her abuser and dealing with the trauma's aftermath to experiencing severe medical crises during childbirth, Rebbeca's resilience is awe-inspiring. These experiences have gifted her with heightened psychic abilities and a profound understanding of life's interconnectedness.SPIRITUAL TAKEAWAYSSelf-Compassion is Essential: Through her struggles, Rebbeca learned the critical importance of self-compassion. It's a vital component of healing, allowing us to nurture ourselves with the same kindness we extend to others.Spiritual Awakening is a Journey: Rebbeca's story highlights that spiritual awakening is an ongoing process, often triggered by life's most challenging experiences. It involves shedding old beliefs and embracing new, more expansive understandings of existence.Embrace Your Path with Courage: Rebbeca's decision to openly share her experiences, despite societal skepticism, underscores the power of living authentically. Her courage serves as an inspiration for others to embrace their own spiritual journeys, no matter how unconventional.Rebbeca's experiences remind us that our lives are intricately woven with purpose and divine guidance. Her story encourages us to seek deeper truths, embrace self-compassion, and live courageously. Through her journey, we see the beauty of transformation and the limitless possibilities that lie within each of us.Please enjoy my conversation with Rebbeca Wertz.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/next-level-soul-podcast-with-alex-ferrari--4858435/support.

Boris Wertz, the founding partner at Version One Ventures, a VC firm that invests in marketplaces and other startups, joins CJ to discuss the evolution and dynamics of marketplace models. Boris sheds light on his early years as a founder and operator at AbeBooks, and what he learned from selling the platform to Amazon during the dot-com boom. He explains the benefits of focusing on a niche instead of going too broad, how he solved the chicken and egg problem, and what it means to be a long-tail model operator. He and CJ discuss where we are today in the development life cycle of marketplaces and why having the mindshare of the buyer is more important than owning the underlying supply. Hear how the financial profiles of marketplace models differ from typical SaaS models, the importance of understanding where demand and supply match in what Boris refers to as a “hotspot”, and what metric is more important than the take rate and the average selling price. If you're looking for an ERP head to NetSuite: https://netsuite.com/metrics and get a customized KPI checklist.—SPONSORS:NetSuite provides financial software for all your business needs.

Sheree Wertz is a Mom, registered dental hygienist, oral health coach, an independent orofacial myofunctional therapist, author and speaker. Her own challenges with her daughters sleeping, sensory issues, oral habits, bedwetting, and mouth breathing led her to the field of myofunctional therapy and opened her eyes to how our health, sleep, and overall well-being is directly impacted by the tongue, our breathing, airway, and facial development. She has always been passionate about the little-known link between our mouth and overall health. After learning about myofunctional disorders and the wide-reaching effects they have on the body, Sheree knew she needed to take the leap from traditional dentistry to a more holistic and functional approach. She is so excited to be able to help patients improve their quality of life by supporting healthy breathing, jaw, and airway development in children and by helping adults resolve symptoms and conditions related to these disorders.

In 1954, it took a historic season to dethrone the Yankees who were five-time defending world champions. Although they won one-hundred three games, the Cleveland Indians won a then-American League record one-hundred eleven. The Indians were led by Center Fielder Larry Doby, the first African-American player in the AL, Third Basemen Al Rosen, and slugger Vic Wertz. Their pitching staff was anchored by Early Wynn, Bob Lemon and Bob Feller. In the National League, the pennant winners were the underdog New York Giants, who won ninety-seven games, once again beating out the Brooklyn Dodgers. The Giants drew 1.15 million fans to the Polo Grounds, second in the National League. Built in a hollow overlooking Coogan's Bluff near the western shore of the Harlem River in the Washington Heights section of Manhattan, a Polo Grounds ballpark had been on this site since 1890. The quirky park was shaped like a bathtub. It was only two-hundred-eighty feet from home plate down the left field line, and only two-hundred-sixty feet down the right. Center field however was over four-hundred-eighty feet away. But, the surrounding neighborhood was changing and Giants owner Horace Stonham began to wonder if he could draw more fans elsewhere. In the eighth inning of game one, the score was tied at two. Cleveland's Al Rosen and Larry Doby had both reached base on Giants pitcher Sal Maglie. Vic Wertz came up to bat. Wertz hit a ball to deep center field, where Giants superstar Willy Mays was playing. Mays ran straight backwards and caught the ball over his shoulder with his back to the field. Later nicknamed “the catch,” it changed the entire complexion of the series. The Giants would go on to sweep the Indians to claim the 1954 World Series title. It would be their last World Championship in New York. Baseball's economic model was changing. As great as the Yankees were, their dominance over the game created a league problem. The G.I. Bill was bringing families to the suburbs in the 1950s — and most of these families were white — radio and TV were embedding deeper into local markets. Major League cities were struggling to support two teams. After the 1952 season, the National League's Boston Braves, unable to compete with the Red Sox, moved to Milwaukee and won the World Series in five years. The AL St. Louis Browns moved to Baltimore after the 1953 season and became the Orioles, where they won 6 American League pennants in their first thirty years. The next year the Philadelphia Athletics moved to Kansas City, where they would remain until moving again, to Oakland, in 1968. Oakland won three consecutive championships in the 1970s. Although fans of every other team loved to hate the Yankees, the franchise was a lightning rod for celebrities and other heroes. Throughout the years Mel Allen had many interesting guests in the booth, like noted Pirates fan Bing Crosby. The team the Yankees often defeated in the World Series? The Brooklyn Dodgers, who lost to the Yankees in 1941, 1947, 1949, 1952, and 1953. In 1955 the tide finally turned and the Bums from Brooklyn became World Champions. Later, retired Hall of Fame player and then broadcaster Frankie Frisch was inside the Brooklyn Dodgers clubhouse speaking to the victorious team. Two years later, owner Walter O'Malley was in a dispute with New York City Park's Commissioner Robert Moses. Ebbets Field, open since 1913 was falling apart. The success of the Dodgers, and the population explosion in Brooklyn had made Ebbets Field too small. The 1957 seating capacity was a tiny thirty-two thousand. Yankee Stadium could seat nearly double. O'Malley wanted to build a stadium at the intersection of Flatbush and Atlantic Avenues in Brooklyn. Robert Moses wanted the team moved to Flushing Meadows–Corona Park in Queens.

During that time, he raced for Stanford, nabbed a world record, and chased the Olympics before injuries sidelined him. When he picked up cycling to pass the rehab time, he fell in love with the sport and never looked back. In 2021, he jumped into Unbound and landed in the top 10. This year, he's racing in the Life Time Grand Prix, which brings a whole new set of unknowns.In this conversation, Brennan sits down with Payson in Monterrey, CA to talk about his rowing career, finding his way into cycling, and why he was hooked on gravel from the start. With only a year and a half of racing under his belt, he's aware that he doesn't have the experience that his competitors have, but with years of rowing, he's got the power numbers and the mentality to make up for it. He talks about how much he enjoys getting out of his comfort zone, how he's tried to bring the team spirit of rowing into his gravel training, and how he hopes to prove that bigger racers can perform at the highest levels of the sport. This year, he isn't looking forward to the events that his 6 foot 5, 200-pound frame is most suited for, but to the races that pose new challenges. Mountain biking at Sea Otter and elevation at Leadville are two of the events he's most excited about, and he tells Payson about how he's training for them, and whether he'd ever be interested in dipping his toe in professional road racing.Instagram: @theadventurestache

My guest today has gone from shy wallflower to recipient of international film awards and a column in Forbes. Jia Wertz is a filmmaker, entrepreneur, podcaster, activist and writer, who, like many of our guests, has had a working life with some unexpected twists and turns.Jia had a super successful career in the fashion industry when she first heard the podcast Serial back in 2014. She was moved to do what she could to help Adnan Syed, the protagonist of the series, who was sentenced at the age of 17 for the murder of Hae Min Lee, a crime he always denied. Jia became actively involved in Adnan's case, and at the same time, made the decision to quit her career in fashion and go to film school at the age of 40 having recently given birth to her son. Jia was subsequently inspired to make her first documentary film, Conviction, about the wrongful conviction of Jeffrey Deskovic, which won multiple awards and opened Jia's career up in ways she never expected. Since we recorded this podcast, Adnan Syed has been released from prison and the charges against him dropped.
