2026 is the year of the mega-IPO. SpaceX, Anthropic, and OpenAI are working their way through the pipeline as anticipation builds for their blockbuster debuts. Elon Musk's conglomerate is leading the shift from private to public markets. Demand is appearing to skyrocket to buy the companies the moment their stocks are publicly available. But is that the right move if you're investing for the long term? Or are there better opportunities among stocks that are down on fears of AI competition, such as software as a service, or SaaS, stocks? These big private firms' public arrivals will also affect index funds and 401(k)s.    So what should you make of all this? Paul Condra is the global head of private markets research for PitchBook, a Morningstar company.

The Crown Chakra is mystical, ethereal, and elusive—it’s the ultimate gateway to higher consciousness. But did you know that your Crown Chakra cannot operate in isolation? In this video, we dive deep into the ultimate paradox of spiritual awakening: the more you know, the more you realize you don’t know. While the Crown Chakra functions as a funnel for divine wisdom and cosmic "downloads," it relies entirely on the rest of your body's "operating system" (your lower chakras) to translate, interpret, and ground that energy into practical human form. Without balance, an overactive Crown Chakra can lead to spiritual bypassing, dissociation, anxiety, or feeling completely ungrounded from reality. What we cover in this episode: --The literal "juggling act" of balancing higher consciousness. --How stress, fear, and scarcity block the communication channel between your Crown and your Root. --How to use automatic journaling, breathwork, and specific yoga asanas (like Mountain Pose and Forward Fold) to connect the whole system. --Why the health of your Crown Chakra isn't just about receiving information—it's about being spiritually connected and embodied.

Signs of Life - Personal Experiences - hosted by Dr. Betty Kovacs, Janet Mayer and Kimberly Saavedra Personal Experiences of Spirit, Love, and Afterlife Connection Everyone Has A Story To Share. We Invite You To Share YOURS! Many Of Us Have Personal Experiences That Defy Mainstream Thinking. Join Us As We Explore The Types Of Experiences That People Have, What They Mean, And How We Can Integrate Them Into Our Daily Lives. Kimberly Saavedra Opens a Personal Experiences Conversation In this episode of Signs of Life Radio, Kimberly Saavedra, Director of the Coma Communication Center, is joined by Dr. Betty Kovacs and Janet Mayer for a Personal Experiences program focused on survival of consciousness and direct afterlife encounters. The hosts invite callers to share experiences that do not involve mediums, including signs, communications, and moments that challenge mainstream views of death and consciousness. Kimberly notes how meaningful it is when all three hosts can be together, while Janet begins by returning to a powerful caller story from the previous month. Returning to Laura's Story of Love After an Abortion Janet revisits the prior show's final caller, Laura, who had spoken briefly about having an abortion and later experiencing an ongoing loving connection with the spirit of the child, whom she called Lily. Janet says she wanted to give the story more space because Laura had asked whether others had similar experiences. Janet reflects that the spirit may have chosen even a brief earthly experience with Laura and that the connection may have been meaningful for both of them. Betty then shares a related story of a stillborn child whose soul, in Betty's strong intuitive impression, had received exactly the love and nurturing it needed during pregnancy and did not need to remain longer on Earth. Continuing Bonds and the Nearness of Loved Ones The hosts broaden the discussion into the idea that loved ones remain close after death. Janet says people often assume the deceased are far away, but in her experience, loved ones are likely nearby, present, and trying to communicate through signs. She encourages listeners to “pay attention” and accept meaningful experiences rather than dismissing them as imagination. Betty adds that people are connected with energies, guides, and loved ones beyond the physical world, and she says that even amid troubling events on Earth, people should not fall into despair because love, prayer, meditation, song, dance, and spiritual intention are contributing to a larger field of light. Elizabeth's Communications with Her Son Shawn Caller Elizabeth shares that her son Shawn died by suicide in 2015 after struggling with severe depression. She says that within 24 hours of his passing, she woke in the early morning surrounded by what felt like a glowing cocoon of love and began communicating with him telepathically. According to Elizabeth, these communications continued regularly for about ten months, during which she kept a headlamp, pen, and paper nearby so she could write them down as they occurred. She says Shawn and what she called a spirit collective helped guide her through grief, forgiveness, and renewed purpose, teaching her that love is not merely a feeling but a powerful force connecting both sides. Shawn in Spirit Speaks and Healing Through Love Elizabeth explains that she has now written a book titled Shawn in Spirit Speaks: Love Is the Forever Adventure. She says the book includes his words as she received them and is expected to be released near the end of the summer or early fall, with an audiobook to follow. Betty asks whether Shawn spoke about his own decision to leave life, and Elizabeth says he did, describing the soul's growth in terms of “attunement opportunities” rather than punishment. The hosts respond with compassion, emphasizing that such a story may comfort others grieving children or loved ones who died by suicide, while also showing that relationship and love continue beyond physical death. Books, Signs, and Stories of Evidential Contact After Elizabeth's call, Janet encourages listeners to read spiritual books during the summer, suggesting that a sentence, page, or passage can become a meaningful message from spirit. Kimberly then shares stories from Diane Archangel's work on afterlife encounters, including one in which a murdered son reportedly gave his mother specific information in a dream that helped police locate evidence, and another in which a deceased mother directed her son to hidden money in the house. These stories lead the hosts to discuss how verifiable information, unexpected signs, and meaningful synchronicities can become powerful experiences for people trying to understand survival after death. Tiffany's Sign from Her Beloved Dog Caller Tiffany from California shares a personal experience involving her late dog, C.K. Mr. Haven, whom she describes as the love of her life. On the anniversary of the day she had to put him down, she was saddened that she could not find photos of him on her phone because they had been moved to an external drive. That same day, while clearing old papers from a speaker so she could set up a new printer, she discovered a stack of glossy photos of C.K. Mr. Haven. Tiffany says she knew this was a visit from her dog, and the hosts affirm the importance of animal souls and the loving ways they can continue to reach people. Spirit, Music, Language, and the Closing Prayer Near the end, Janet reminds listeners that spirit communication can come through books, songs, dreams, sensations, and other unexpected signs. She shares that after doing a Signs of Life reading show years earlier, she felt spirit touching her feet under the covers as though calming and grounding her energy. Betty recounts experiences involving spiritual support around death, including a friend who sensed a male spirit taking over healing work near Betty's dying son and another father who experienced drumming around his daughter's passing. Janet also discusses her own experience of receiving a spiritual language, which led to the title of her book, Spirits, They Are Present. The show closes with the Mahayana prayer for all beings everywhere to be fulfilled, awakened, liberated, and free.

Why Do I Yawn After Tapping? The Nervous System Science Behind It (Pod #707)

Subscribe in: Apple Podcast | iPhone | Spotify | Pandora | Amazon Music | iHeartRadio  | YouTube If you have ever finished a round of EFT tapping and found yourself yawning uncontrollably, you are not imagining things. In 18 years of working with clients, this question lands in my inbox almost every single month. It is actually one of the top search terms that brings new readers to TappingQandA.com. TL;DR / Key Takeaways Yawning, burping, and stomach gurgles after a tapping round are all signs that your body shifted out of fight-or-flight mode and into its natural rest-and-restore state. The human nervous system operates in two distinct modes: the sympathetic nervous system (fight or flight) and the parasympathetic nervous system (rest and digest). EFT tapping moves you from the first into the second. When the digestive system comes back online after a stress response, it produces physical signals including yawns, burps, farts, and stomach rumbles. You do not need to yawn for tapping to have worked. The absence of a yawn is not evidence that nothing changed. These physical responses are among the most common questions people search before finding this site, which tells us that tappers everywhere share this experience and wonder what it means. Why Do I Yawn After Tapping? The Short Answer Yawning after a round of EFT tapping means your nervous system just made a real, measurable shift. It moved out of sympathetic activation (the stress state) and into parasympathetic activation (the recovery state), and your body is announcing that transition out loud. EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques), commonly called tapping, involves tapping on specific acupressure points on the face and upper body while focusing on an emotional issue. Some of the earliest peer-reviewed research on tapping demonstrated that it reduces cortisol, the primary stress hormone produced during fight-or-flight activation. When cortisol drops and the sympathetic response de-escalates, the parasympathetic nervous system takes over. That handoff produces a cascade of physical changes, and yawning is one of the most visible. Key insight: "The yawn is your body's way of resetting its state. It is the system literally changing shape from the inside to signal that the danger has passed." What Are the Sympathetic and Parasympathetic Nervous Systems? The human nervous system runs in two modes that cannot operate simultaneously. Your body is always choosing between them based on its read of your environment. The sympathetic nervous system governs fight or flight. When the brain perceives a threat, physical or emotional, it floods the body with adrenaline and cortisol. Heart rate climbs. Pupils dilate to take in more visual information. Oxygen is pushed to your limbs so you can run or fight. Digestion shuts down almost entirely, because processing food is a waste of resources when a threat is nearby. Some people experience the extreme version of this when they go blank before a presentation or job interview. The capillaries in the brain constrict as oxygen is rerouted to the muscles, which is why all the answers you forgot come flooding back the moment you walk out the door and the threat passes. The parasympathetic nervous system governs rest, repair, and digestion. Heart rate drops. Pupils contract to sharpen focus. The digestive system powers back on. Growth and maintenance processes resume. You can learn more about how the nervous system connects to emotional healing in Pod #482, where I talked through the full picture with Dr. Jen Cincurak, a naturopathic doctor whose work centers on nervous system maturation and somatic tools including tapping. Why Tapping Triggers the Shift from Stress to Rest Tapping moves the body from sympathetic to parasympathetic activation by sending a calming signal through the acupressure system while you hold a stressful thought or feeling in mind. The combination of cognitive focus and physical tapping interrupts the fight-or-flight loop. Key insight: "What tapping does is give the nervous system new information. It says: you can be present with this emotion without being in danger because of it." The early body of scientific research on tapping, including studies that measured cortisol in saliva before and after sessions, showed measurable decreases in the stress hormone within a single session. That biological change is not metaphorical. It is the same shift the body makes when a frightening situation resolves and you let out a long exhale. Tapping makes it available on purpose, for emotional material the nervous system has been holding in stress mode for days, months, or years. For a deeper look at the evidence behind why tapping produces these effects, Why Tapping Works: Six Evidence-Based Premises covers the research base in plain language. What Causes the Yawning, Burping, and Stomach Gurgles? When the parasympathetic nervous system takes over, every system that was put on hold during the stress response comes back online at once. That re-activation is not silent. The yawn is a physical resetting of the throat and airway, part of the body recalibrating its breathing pattern as it relaxes. It is not about being sleepy (though it can feel that way). It is the airway itself changing shape as surrounding muscles release tension. The burps, farts, and stomach gurgles are the digestive system restarting. During fight or flight, digestion goes essentially offline. The moment the parasympathetic system takes over, digestion turns back on like an engine starting up after sitting cold. It makes noise. It produces gas. That is not a malfunction. That is the machinery doing exactly what it is supposed to do. This connects to broader patterns around what happens in the body during emotional healing, a topic I explored in depth with Julie Schiffman in an early episode on physical body signals. Does Not Yawning Mean Tapping Did Not Work? No. The absence of a yawn after tapping does not mean nothing happened. Key insight: "The yawn is one sign that the shift occurred. It is not the only sign, and its absence is not evidence of failure." Yawning signals the sympathetic-to-parasympathetic transition when it is large enough to produce a physical response, but subtler or more gradual shifts may not trigger visible physical signals. Some sessions produce a quiet settling rather than a dramatic physical announcement. Some people rarely yawn at all, regardless of what their nervous system is doing. I have worked with clients who felt genuinely deflated after a session because they did not yawn the way they had in earlier rounds. They assumed that meant the session did not work. In most cases, they had already done significant work on the issue previously, and the remaining shifts were quieter. Quieter does not mean smaller. If you are wondering whether your tapping is actually producing results, Pod #703 on why you might feel worse after a round of tapping addresses exactly that concern in detail. Other Physical Signs That Tapping Is Working Yawning is the most commonly noticed signal, but it belongs to a larger family of parasympathetic indicators. After a productive tapping round, you might also notice a deep sigh or a long exhale that seems to come out of nowhere. A shift in the weight of your shoulders or a release of tension in your jaw. A brief wave of tiredness as the nervous system moves out of high alert and the body relaxes toward its resting state. Occasionally a sudden need to use the bathroom, which is the GI tract re-engaging. None of these are problems. They are the body doing its job, communicating in the language it was designed to use. If you have ever felt oddly emotional right after a round of tapping and wondered whether something went wrong, Pod #695 on why you feel sad after tapping walks through the same nervous-system logic applied to emotional release. The Five Stress Responses and What They Mean for Tapping Most people know fight or flight, but the sympathetic nervous system actually produces five distinct stress responses, sometimes called the five Fs: fight, flight, freeze, flop, and fawn. Fight and flight are the most familiar. Freeze is what happens when the threat is so overwhelming that movement seems impossible. Flop is a more extreme collapse response. Fawn is the social version, appeasing and accommodating to neutralize the threat through relationship. All five of these states share the same underlying biochemistry: cortisol, adrenaline, constricted digestion, elevated heart rate, redirected blood flow. And all five can be the state your nervous system is carrying when you sit down to tap on an emotional issue. Key insight: "Every one of those five stress responses is the body trying to keep you safe. Tapping gives the system the signal that the danger has passed and it is safe to stand down." This is why tapping can produce the same yawning and digestive reset regardless of whether the original stress was acute fear, chronic people-pleasing, or old frozen shock. The body's exit route from all five states runs through the same parasympathetic doorway, and the yawn on the other side is the same yawn. What to Do When You Notice These Physical Signals After Tapping When you notice a yawn, a burp, or a gurgle during or after tapping, you do not need to do anything special. Simply acknowledge it as confirmation that your nervous system is responding. A few practices that support this process: Pause after the physical signal. When you yawn or feel a release, give yourself 30 seconds to breathe and let the shift settle before moving on. Notice what changed emotionally. After the signal, check in with the issue you were tapping on. Does it feel different? Smaller? More distant? This is your informal SUDS (Subjective Units of Distress Scale) check, which is the standard 0 to 10 measure of emotional intensity used in EFT. Do not chase the yawn. Tapping longer or harder specifically to produce more yawning is unnecessary. If the yawn happened, the shift happened. Trust it. Keep a short log. Some tappers find it helpful to note physical signals alongside their emotional observations after a session. Over time this builds self-knowledge about how your particular nervous system signals change. If you want a structured way to use tapping consistently and build on these kinds of shifts day by day, 365TappingLessons.com offers a full year of guided sessions built around exactly this kind of body-informed practice. Frequently Asked Questions Why do I yawn so much when I do EFT tapping? Yawning during or after EFT tapping is your nervous system shifting from sympathetic activation (fight or flight) to parasympathetic activation (rest and digest). This shift causes a physical reset in the throat and airway, which produces yawning. Frequent yawning during tapping typically means your sessions are moving significant stored stress through your system. Is yawning after tapping a good sign? Yes. Yawning after tapping is a positive indicator that your nervous system made a genuine transition from a stress state into a recovery state. It is not coincidence. It is the body responding to the biochemical shift that tapping creates. What does it mean when my stomach gurgles during tapping? Stomach gurgles during tapping mean your digestive system is coming back online after being suppressed by a stress response. During fight or flight, digestion essentially shuts down to conserve energy. When tapping moves you into a parasympathetic state, digestion restarts and produces audible sounds. This is a healthy, normal response. Does not yawning mean tapping is not working? No. You can have a highly effective tapping session with no yawning at all. Yawning signals the parasympathetic shift when it is large enough to produce a visible physical response, but subtler shifts may not trigger it. Judge the effectiveness of a session by how the emotional issue feels afterward, not by whether you yawned. Can tapping make you feel tired? Yes, and for a good reason. Coming out of a sustained stress state, even a low-grade chronic one, requires the nervous system to recalibrate. When the parasympathetic system takes over after tapping, the body sometimes relaxes into a brief wave of tiredness. This is normal and typically passes within a few minutes. What are the five F stress responses and how does tapping address them? The five stress responses are fight, flight, freeze, flop, and fawn. All five are expressions of the sympathetic nervous system triggered by perceived danger. Tapping works across all five because it addresses the underlying biochemistry (cortisol, adrenaline, restricted digestion) rather than any one specific behavioral expression of stress. Is there research showing tapping reduces the stress response? Yes. Some of the earliest peer-reviewed studies on EFT measured cortisol levels before and after tapping sessions and found significant reductions within a single session. This physiological evidence supports what tappers report experientially: that tapping produces a measurable shift in the body's stress state, not just a change in perspective.

Signs of Life - Personal Experiences - hosted by Dr. Betty Kovacs, Janet Mayer and Kimberly Saavedra Personal Encounters and exploring the afterlife Join us for an engaging discussion on personal experiences that challenge mainstream beliefs. Everyone has a story worth sharing, and we invite you to join the conversation and explore the meanings behind these experiences. This event is hosted by experts dedicated to understanding consciousness and the afterlife. Don't miss out! Everyone Has A Story To Share. We Invite You To Share YOURS! Many Of Us Have Personal Experiences That Defy Mainstream Thinking. Join Us As We Explore The Types Of Experiences That People Have, What They Mean, And How We Can Integrate Them Into Our Daily Lives. This episode of Signs of Life Radio explores the survival of consciousness through direct personal experiences, moving beyond mediumship to focus on how individuals receive signs and integrate spiritual encounters into their daily lives. The discussion highlights the profound healing found in "spiritual awakenings" and the consistent messages of love and reassurance sent from the other side. Direct Signs and Physical Manifestations The program opens with the premise that everyone has a story that might provide vital reassurance to others. Co-host Janet Mayer shares a personal account of a physical sign: a massage ball in her home moved 20 feet and navigated a 90-degree turn into the kitchen overnight. Despite attempts to replicate the movement naturally, the hosts concluded it was a deliberate sign from a deceased friend whom Janet had recently asked for a signal. The "Activation" and Spiritual Awakening A caller named Sean describes a profound encounter six months after his father's passing. He felt a humanoid shape—described as a "heatwave"—that emitted an electrical static sensation. Upon asking the entity to approach, he felt a "merging" embrace that filled him with absolute joy and love. The hosts interpret this "static" as a frequency adjustment or an "activation" of the soul. Sean notes that this experience eventually led to a spiritual awakening where he was able to forgive generational trauma and realize a sense of universal "oneness." Interestingly, Sean and the hosts discuss how physical "setbacks," such as Sean's fractured ankle or co-host Kim's broken shoulder, often serve as a "universe smackdown." These injuries force a period of stillness and isolation, providing the necessary environment for contemplation and the integration of intense spiritual experiences that the busy "physical" self might otherwise ignore. Reassurance and the "Cluster" Effect The dialogue shifts to the nature of messages from the deceased. Rather than complex instructions, the most common communications are simple reassurances: "I am okay," "I did not suffer," and "I am fine." Kim shares a story of "cluster communications" where multiple family members received independent signs from a deceased daughter, Lisa, all conveying her happiness in the spiritual realm. Betty Kovach adds that both her son and husband communicated after their respective accidents that they were "out of the body" before the moment of impact, specifically to alleviate the living family's fear of their suffering. Healing Unborn Connections The episode concludes with a moving testimony from Laura, who shares her 30-year connection with the soul of a child she never brought into the world. She identifies this spirit as "Lily," a guide who represents the message of "loving yourself." The hosts validate that connections with miscarried or aborted children are common and profound, often serving as a catalyst for the parent's own spiritual healing and the release of deep-seated trauma. The overarching theme of the discussion is that spiritual experiences are unique, personal, and valid regardless of their scale. Whether through the movement of a small object or a life-altering energetic embrace, these signs serve to "pull back the veil," reminding humanity of its creative potential and the enduring nature of love beyond the physical world.

Signs of Life - Personal Experiences hosted by Dr. Betty Kovacs, Janet Mayer and Kimberly Saavedra Everyone Has A Story To Share. We Invite You To Share YOURS! Many Of Us Have Personal Experiences That Defy Mainstream Thinking. Join Us As We Explore The Types Of Experiences That People Have, What They Mean, And How We Can Integrate Them Into Our Daily Lives. (Although Mediums Provide A Valuable Connection To The Deceased, This Show Centers Around YOUR Direct Experiences Which Do Not Involve A Medium.) Collect Your Stories and Join Us This episode of Signs of Life Radio features hosts Janet Mayer and Kimberly Saavedra exploring the profound ways deceased loved ones communicate with the living. Through personal anecdotes and caller testimonies, the program highlights how acknowledging "signs" can transform the grieving process into a journey of spiritual connection and healing. The episode begins with host Janet Mayer sharing a personal account of electronic interference, a common medium for spirit communication. She recounts her computer crashing immediately after she mentally addressed her late uncle, whom she described as a "jokester." This event, coupled with her work in Electronic Voice Phenomenon (EVP), underscores the theme that spirits often manipulate energy to provide playful or urgent validation of their presence. Janet specifically references an EVP recording where a spirit stated, "We are in your world," emphasizing that the deceased remain intimately connected to our daily reality rather than residing in a distant, unreachable location. Callers Carol and Christine provide vivid examples of how these signs manifest in specific, personal ways. Carol describes receiving comfort from her 11-year-old grandson, Ivan, through the repeated appearance of ladybugs and references to the game Minecraft. Christine shares a unique "morning song" phenomenon where specific lyrics—such as Crosby, Stills & Nash's "Southern Cross"—pop into her head upon waking, often correlating directly with her life decisions or travel plans. The hosts suggest that these musical messages are not random but are tailored to the recipient's personality and shared history with the deceased. The dialogue also addresses the emotional complexity of grief, particularly when it involves difficult relationships. Caller Lisa, who is visually impaired, discusses her late mother's communication through flickering lights. Despite a complicated past, Lisa felt her mother's support when a stranger unexpectedly helped her with difficult paperwork. The hosts reflect on the "surprising creativity of grief," noting that while sorrow and joy are intertwined, remaining open to signs can help move an individual from a "frozen" state of anger or pain into a more "transcendent" space of peace. The episode concludes with a story about a young girl named Marie, whose father, after a tragic passing, played "Mary Had a Little Lamb" on a basement piano to comfort her. This narrative serves as a final testament to the idea that the bond between loved ones is not severed by death, but merely changes form. The hosts encourage listeners to foster their own "spirit practice" by maintaining an internal dialogue with those who have passed. This discussion reaffirms that the survival of consciousness is evidenced through a variety of personal, often playful, communications. By staying open, practicing gratitude, and acknowledging the presence of the deceased in our physical world, individuals can find a path through grief toward a continued relationship with those they have lost. Bringing You Evidence of An Afterlife Since 2004 Forever Family Foundation is a global 100%volunteer non-profit, non-sectarian organization that supports the premise that life does not end with physical death, furthers the understanding of Afterlife Science and survival of consciousness, and offers support to the bereaved. Among the active members of the organization and the executive board are scientists, researchers, medical doctors, philosophers and educators who have devoted substantial parts of their careers to the investigation of the survival hypothesis - an existence beyond this physical world

RBI's New Mis-selling Rules

Let's Talk Money with Monika Halan

As complaints of insurance mis-selling by banks finally prompt regulatory action, Monika examines the Reserve Bank of India's draft Responsible Business Conduct guidelines and what they could mean for customers. The proposed rules aim to require suitability assessments, explicit consent, and restrictions on coercive sales practices, signalling a shift toward holding banks accountable for putting customer interests ahead of sales targets. Drawing on years of research and documented evidence, she explains how mis-selling has persisted through opaque disclosures, aggressive commissions, and weak enforcement, eroding public trust in the banking system.Monika argues that while the intent of the new rules is welcome, their effectiveness will depend on clear definitions of suitability, independent monitoring, and reforms to the commission structures that incentivise harmful sales. Without these structural fixes, regulation risks becoming symbolic rather than transformative. She also reflects on how banks could instead build long-term, trust-based relationships with customers by offering transparent financial planning and aligning their incentives with household financial security rather than short-term product sales.In listener queries, Vijay Panchal from Ahmedabad asks whether to combine Sukanya Samriddhi Yojana with equity investing for his daughter's future and whether to prioritise NPS or PPF for retirement under the new tax regime; Nitin Gupta from Dehradun seeks clarity on the tax and ownership implications of mutual fund investments held in his minor son's name as he approaches adulthood; and Hemanth Thyagraj from Bangalore asks how to balance home loan prepayments with ongoing mutual fund investing while pursuing long-term financial independence.Chapters:(00:00 – 00:00) RBI's New Mis-Selling Rules and What They Mean for Bank Customers(00:00 – 00:00) Suitability Framework, Commissions and Fixing Incentives in Financial Product Sales(00:00 – 00:00) SSY vs Index Funds and Choosing Between NPS and PPF(00:00 – 00:00) Managing Mutual Funds Held in a Child's Name After They Turn 18(00:00 – 00:00) Balancing Home Loan Prepayment with Long-Term Investinghttps://rbidocs.rbi.org.in/rdocs/Content/PDFs/01CBDRAFT11022026ADD95448CA7E4662A409F78D829072C7.PDFhttps://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S014759671730046Xhttps://m.rbi.org.in//scripts/Bs_viewcontent.aspx?Id=3370https://youtu.be/q9kmG-443vo?si=IuTsFG9pbFmysTMDhttps://drive.google.com/file/d/1E8939c5w16_NIvshQbcUXW1iZtMLJVcS/view?usp=drivesdkIf you have financial questions that you'd like answers for, please email us at ⁠mailme@monikahalan.com⁠ Monika's book on basic money management⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.monikahalan.com/lets-talk-money-english/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Monika's book on mutual funds⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.monikahalan.com/lets-talk-mutual-funds/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Monika's workbook on recording your financial life⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.monikahalan.com/lets-talk-legacy/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Calculators⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://investor.sebi.gov.in/calculators/index.html⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠You can find Monika on her social media @monikahalan. Twitter ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@MonikaHalan⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@MonikaHalan⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@MonikaHalan⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@MonikaHalan⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Production House: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.inoutcreatives.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Production Assistant:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Anshika Gogoi⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

In our last session of Paul: His Epistles and What They Mean, Dcn Jim McFadden reflected that the truth of the Gospel cannot be negotiated. One of the key components of the Good News is that we are justified by Jesus Christ and, as such, are not bound by the Law, but are called to the demanding life-style of self-giving generosity of the Gospel. But, the Law still has a role—we're obliged to follow the Ten Commandments—but it serves as a precursor to the Good News.Paul zealously embraced the evangelical model of the Church.  Do you share in that mission?  How so?Paul would not dilute or compromise the Gospel.  Do you see that as being rigid or faithful to the Good News?  How can the Gospel be compromised today?The Gospel is Jesus' gift to us; it gives us life.  How do you embrace and live the Gospel?

On this episode of Mind the Gap, Tom Sherrington is joined by Meg Lee and Jim Heal, co-founders of Learning Science Partners, to explore how to make evidence-informed practice live and last at scale. Meg and Jim share why learning science should be a lens rather than an initiative, how they build common language across large, complex districts, and the three-phase approach they use to build, deepen, and sustain change. They discuss Maryland's move to embed foundational learning science in statute, practical facilitation moves (from cognitive-load demos to “transparent facilitation”), and the idea of instructional equity - asking “who gets to think?” in every lesson.Dr. Jim Heal is a leading advocate for bridging the worlds of research and practice in education.  His work seeks to develop expertise in evidence-informed instruction and leadership in K-12 schools, school districts, and higher education in the United States and Europe.  Dr. Heal was a high school English teacher and principal for ten years in the UK before moving to the US, where he became Director of Practice at Harvard's Research Schools International initiative. He currently serves as Professor of Evidence-Informed Education Leadership at Academica University of Applied Sciences in Amsterdam, served as a lecturer at the Harvard Graduate School of Education where he earned his doctorate in educational leadership, and is author of How Teaching Happens: Seminal Works in Teaching and Teacher Effectiveness and What They Mean in Practice and Mental Models: How Understanding the Mind Can Transform the Way You Work and Learn.Meg Lee is a forerunner in implementing evidence-informed practice in schools and districts. A public school educator in a variety of roles from teacher to professional learning specialist to school-based administrator to central executive leader for over 25 years, Meg directed induction and professional learning for a large, innovative public district that implemented evidence-informed practice and worked to ensure every educator understands how learning happens.  She serves as Core Teacher, Learning Science and Advisor, Professional Learning at Academica University of Applied Sciences in Amsterdam, is the author of Mindsets for Parents: Strategies to Encourage Growth Mindsets in Kids (2nd ed.), and has taught education and psychology courses at the graduate level.Find out more about both Jim and Meg's work at https://www.learningsciencepartners.com/Tom Sherrington has worked in schools as a teacher and leader for 30 years and is now a consultant specialising in teacher development and curriculum & assessment planning.

Monika is back after a short break, and the first thing on the agenda is the topic that's dominating every conversation—Trump's tariffs. In this episode, she unpacks what these new trade policies mean not just for the U.S. and China, but for the rest of the world. This isn't just about taxes on goods—it's a signal that the global power structure is in flux. As America's post-war dominance is challenged by China's rising ambition, we find ourselves in the middle of a massive geopolitical reset.She lays out the broader picture of a world order in transition, where democracies and authoritarian states are playing by very different rules. The United States, with its checks and balances, is finding it hard to keep pace with China's centralized decision-making. With Trump's aggressive stance in his second term, institutions are being bypassed, and uncertainty is running high. But in the middle of this chaos, there's a surprising resilience in the Indian economy, thanks to strong domestic consumption, manageable debt levels, and relatively low dependence on exports.In the listener Q&A, Daniel from Kanyakumari shares his investing journey and seeks clarity on whether he's on track for his child's education and retirement. Sachin from Vadodara wants to know if there's a single platform to track all his investments and LIC policies. Poonam, a homemaker and army wife, is eager to learn how to manage and grow her family's savings but doesn't know where to begin.Chapters:(00:30 – 09:34) Global Power Shifts and What They Mean for Investors(09:35 – 11:05) Explaining What a Recession Really Is(11:06 – 15:49) Structuring a Portfolio for Education and Retirement(15:50 – 19:07) Tracking Investments and the Need for One Dashboard(19:08 – 21:01) Getting Started With Money Management at Homehttps://www.valueresearchonline.com/https://licindia.in/If you have financial questions that you'd like answers for, please email us at ⁠mailme@monikahalan.com⁠ If you have financial questions that you'd like answers for, please email us at mailme@monikahalan.comMonika's book on basic money management⁠⁠https://www.monikahalan.com/lets-talk-money-english/⁠⁠Monika's book on mutual funds⁠https://www.monikahalan.com/lets-talk-mutual-funds/⁠Monika's workbook on recording your financial life⁠⁠https://www.monikahalan.com/lets-talk-legacy/⁠⁠Calculators⁠⁠https://investor.sebi.gov.in/calculators/index.html⁠⁠You can find Monika on her social media @monikahalan. Twitter ⁠⁠@MonikaHalan⁠⁠Instagram ⁠⁠@MonikaHalan⁠⁠Facebook ⁠⁠@MonikaHalan⁠⁠LinkedIn ⁠@MonikaHalan⁠Production House: ⁠www.inoutcreatives.com⁠Production Assistant:⁠ Anshika Gogoi⁠

Are tariffs the problem or just a symptom? Recent tariff announcements are stirring up uncertainty. What does that mean for inflation, economic growth, and investor sentiment? In this episode of Off the Wall, hosts Jessica Gibbs, CFP®, and David B. Armstrong, CFA, are joined by Monument Wealth Management's Portfolio Management team Erin M. Hay, CFA, CMT®, and Nate W. Tonsager, CIPM® to address the biggest market headlines in the first quarter of 2025. Dave breaks down where we've seen the biggest market swings, Erin digs into how sector rotation and technical indicators are shaping his outlook, and Nate explains that market volatility works both ways and isn't just to the downside. The conversation then delves deeper into the realities of market volatility, exploring why corrections and sharp sell-offs are less about impending doom and more about natural market cycles. Hear their candid discussion on the challenges of timing the market, the importance of maintaining a cash buffer, and why a long-term strategy remains your best defense amid short-term noise.

People are less social than before and there are real consequences for that.

When you hear someone talk about nuclear power – what do you think? Nuclear power has a bad image. People think it is unsafe – but is it really? A lot of environmentalists are jumping on the nuclear bandwagon. And the fact is there are almost 100 nuclear reactors in operation in the U.S. with no problem and France actually gets 70% of its power from nuclear. Listen as I discuss all of this with Marco Visscher, an award-winning journalist, who has written extensively about climate policy and clean technology and is author of the book, The Power of Nuclear (https://amzn.to/4b2MgxD).
