Rolling Stone's Nashville Now podcast goes on the road this week for a very special episode with the legendary Shania Twain. Surrounded by memorabilia from throughout her career, the country music trendsetter welcomes us to her Las Vegas property for a wide-ranging conversation. Twain talks about connecting the dots between Shania the superstar and the young girl who sang in motel bars in her native Canada on her new album Little Miss Twain. She also opens up about putting her singing career on hold to become a caregiver for her siblings following the tragic death of her parents, being embraced by an LGBTQ audience, and why she thinks men like singing along to “Man! I Feel Like a Woman!” Twain shares what she sees in the success of Ella Langley too. It's a conversation with one of country music's most important artists.   Country is Here… Nashville is Now.   Check out our Hear Now playlist on Spotify, updated weekly.

What kind of God asks a prophet to marry someone who will break his heart? And what does that say about the kind of love God offers us?In this sermon, Rev. Shawn Garan walks us through the strange and beautiful story of Hosea. This is not just about a prophet and a broken marriage. It is about a God who chooses to stay. More than a tale of judgment or ritual, Hosea reveals the depth of God's longing for connection. It is not about religion as performance. It is about relationship. Real, raw, faithful love.If you have ever felt far from God, tired of spiritual checklists, or unsure how to come back home, this message is for you.

Have you ever opened your lab results, spotted a few red flags, and immediately felt your stomach drop?Fear has a way of turning numbers into identity. One abnormal result can leave you questioning everything, even when those numbers only tell a small part of the story.In this episode, I share why I never look at total cholesterol in isolation and why real health is about understanding patterns instead of chasing one lab value after another. Lab work is meant to be a tool for stewardship, not a source of shame or panic.Together, we'll explore what cholesterol is actually communicating, why symptoms are messages instead of inconveniences, and how asking better questions leads to better decisions about your health. I also opens up about my family's history with heart disease, the experiences that shaped my approach to functional medicine, and why I'm committed to helping people understand their bodies instead of simply managing diagnoses.If you've ever felt overwhelmed by lab reports, confused by conflicting health advice, or exhausted trying to figure out what actually matters, this conversation will help you replace fear with clarity and confidence.Real healing begins when we stop chasing numbers and start understanding the story our bodies are telling.SERVICES & MEMBERSHIPS:Cholesterol BootcampAdventurerSubstackWork With Dr. Danielle: Concierge Care PackagesFREE RESOURCES:Dr. Danielle's Root Cause Reset Guide

Is perimenopause really just a hormone problem? Or is it revealing something much deeper? In this episode, we're taking a different approach to one of the biggest conversations in women's health today. Rather than debating hormone replacement therapy, we're asking why so many women experience such significant symptoms in the first place.

Most of us picked up our picture of the end of the world from somewhere other than the Bible. A novel, a movie, a footnote in a study Bible. This week we went looking for where that picture actually came from, and traced it back to one man in the 1830s, a study Bible in 1909, and a series of paperbacks and movies that turned his idea into common sense.Then we opened the actual passages. In 1 Thessalonians 4, Paul isn't writing an escape plan. He's comforting a grieving church that thought their dead loved ones had missed out on Jesus coming back. The Greek word behind "meet the Lord in the air" describes a welcoming party going out to greet a king and walk him home, not an evacuation. In Matthew 24, Jesus points us to the story of Noah to explain what "taken" and "left" mean, and in that story, the ones taken were taken by judgment. The ones left were safe in the ark.We also looked at why judgment doesn't have to be something we dread. For people who have actually needed things made right, a good God who judges is not a threat. It's the promise that nothing gets left crooked forever.The Bible doesn't end with a warning to get our act together. It ends with an invitation. Maranatha, come Lord Jesus, is what you say about someone you love who is almost home.If you're grieving someone who died before you thought they should, this one is for you. They didn't miss anything. They're not behind. They're ahead of you, and the same God who is bringing them back is the one we're waiting on together.

When people say “the market is down,” they may not be telling the whole story. In reality, there isn't just one market, and the way your portfolio is diversified can make a big difference in how you experience market movement. Today, Paul explains why broad statements about the market can be misleading and how it's easy to get confused when there are two types of diversification: diversification of companies within an area of the market and diversification between different areas of the market. Listen along to learn why understanding the difference can help you think more clearly when headlines make it sound like everything is moving in the same direction.    Later in the episode, Paul shares how some tech industry speculators are still split on the outlook of Musk's companies and are betting against them.  Want to cut through the myths about retirement income and learn evidence-based strategies backed by over a century of data?

Competition for AI Is Coming From a Surprise Source That Could Pressure U.S. Companies' Prices and Profits  We tend to focus on the major AI companies in the United States and assume they will be the long-term winners. However, one competitor that cannot be ignored is China. Chinese companies are making rapid progress in artificial intelligence, and they could become a serious challenge to U.S. firms.  Don't forget that China is a communist country and the government can put in a lot of capital to win the AI race. That ability to heavily fund AI development could help Chinese companies narrow the gap with, or even surpass, some American competitors in certain areas.  According to Artificial Analysis, which evaluates the capabilities of large language models, China's Z.ai ranked among the top three globally with its latest model release. Another concern is cost. Z.ai is reportedly offering models at less than half the price of many American rivals. Lower prices could make it easier for the company to gain market share while putting pressure on the pricing and profit margins of U.S. AI companies.  I certainly don't want to see American companies lose ground to Chinese competitors. However, as investors, we have to evaluate the competitive landscape objectively. U.S. AI companies have already committed hundreds of billions of dollars to infrastructure and development. If competition forces prices lower, it may take much longer for these companies to generate the profits needed to justify today's lofty stock prices and valuations.    The Business of Kids' Sports Is Changing and it May Not Be for the Better  Private equity has made its way into nearly every corner of the economy, and now it's becoming a major force in youth sports. The Aspen Institute has estimated that youth sports are now a $40 billion industry in the U.S, which is likely why private equity is now targeting the space. That's raising serious concerns about what happens when maximizing investor returns becomes more important than giving kids affordable opportunities to play.  As private equity firms buy up leagues, tournaments, training facilities, and sports complexes, critics argue the result is less competition, higher registration fees, and fewer affordable options for families. The average cost of youth sports has increased dramatically in recent years, leaving many children priced out of participating simply because their families can't afford it.  One thing that stands out is that this has become one of the rare issues drawing concern from both Republicans and Democrats in Congress. Burgess Owens, a Republican from Utah and former professional football player, pointed out “Investment is important, but it's when the mission is our kids, not investors. We're seeing too much of this. We're going to lose the soul of our nation if we don't get this right.” He also acknowledged that while some investors are doing it the right way, bad actors need to be kept out. While there are differences over how to address the problem, there appears to be broad bipartisan agreement that rising costs and reduced consumer choice deserve closer scrutiny.  Youth sports should be about developing character, teamwork, friendships, and healthy competition, not creating another industry where financial engineering determines who gets to participate. If the trend toward consolidation continues unchecked, more families may find themselves priced out of opportunities that should be available to every child, regardless of income.    Bitcoin Company Strategy Is in Trouble  Strategy, formerly known as MicroStrategy, changed its name after the company essentially became a leveraged bet on Bitcoin rather than a software business. As management shifted its focus almost entirely to buying Bitcoin, it dropped the "Micro" from its name to reflect that new identity.  CEO Michael Saylor spent years promoting Bitcoin and telling investors that owning Strategy stock was one of the best ways to benefit from its rise. To finance those Bitcoin purchases, the company repeatedly issued low-interest convertible bonds.  The next major maturity comes on September 15, 2027, when approximately $1 billion of convertible notes become due. If you're unfamiliar with convertible bonds, they allow a company to borrow money at lower interest rates because investors have the option to convert the bonds into stock instead of receiving cash repayment. For that to happen, however, the stock price must trade well above the conversion price.  In this case, the conversion price is about $183 per share, about double the current stock price of roughly $90. Unless the stock stages a dramatic recovery, those bonds are unlikely to be converted into shares, meaning Strategy would need to repay the $1 billion in cash.  The stock has fallen nearly 79% over the past year, and Bitcoin's decline has only magnified the losses. Bitcoin itself has dropped roughly 50% from its peak, falling below $60,000 depending on the day. When Bitcoin was making new highs, investor excitement seemed endless. Now that prices have been cut roughly in half, much of that enthusiasm has disappeared.    Michael Saylor has also been noticeably absent from major interviews in recent months. Whether that is because demand for his appearances has faded or because the company's performance has made those appearances more difficult is open to interpretation. Strategy stock reached a high of around $473 in late 2024 and now trades near $90.  We've discussed this company many times before. The concern has always been that Strategy is not creating meaningful operating growth as it is primarily just borrowing money to buy Bitcoin. Unlike a traditional operating company, it is not relying on expanding products or services to drive future earnings.  At the moment, there does not appear to be a clear catalyst that would significantly lift either Bitcoin or Strategy's stock price. If the shares remain well below the conversion price as the 2027 maturity approaches, investors are likely to become increasingly concerned about how the company will repay its debt. That uncertainty could continue to put pressure on the stock.    Upper-middle-class Americans may not be as financially secure as they would like  Upper-middle-class Americans, generally defined as households earning between $150,000 and $250,000 per year, may be in a stronger financial position than most, but many are becoming increasingly pessimistic about the future.  You may be surprised to learn that 86% of upper-middle-class Americans do not believe their children will have a better life than they have. Just seven years ago, in 2019, that figure was only 64%.  Many upper-middle-class households are also losing confidence in the economic system and the government. They increasingly feel that the odds are stacked against them, making it harder to continue moving ahead financially. In the most recent Wall Street Journal survey, 65% of affluent Americans said they believe the system is rigged against them, more than double the 29% who felt that way in 2017.  The news isn't much better for the middle class, generally defined as households earning between $65,000 and $235,000 annually. Only 25% said they have been able to save beyond an emergency fund. Roughly one in four also reported carrying credit card debt that they are unable to pay off in full each month.  Despite these concerns, there has still been significant upward mobility. About 75% of people in today's upper-income group said they now belong to a higher economic class than the one they grew up in. Among middle-class Americans, roughly half said they also grew up in a lower economic class than where they are today.  Views on higher education are changing as well. About one-third of middle-class Americans no longer believe a four-year college degree is the best path to financial success. Rising tuition costs, growing student debt, and the availability of alternative career paths have caused many to rethink the traditional college route.  No matter which income group people belong to, there is often a desire to improve their financial situation and move up economically. That ambition is a healthy part of human nature and is often what drives people to work harder, save more, and invest for the future. While constantly striving for more can sometimes make it difficult to feel fully satisfied, the pursuit of improvement can also provide a strong sense of purpose and accomplishment.    Did The Recent Jobs Report Tell the Whole Story?  At first glance, this weeks jobs report looked fairly uneventful. The U.S. economy added 57,000 nonfarm payroll jobs in June, and the unemployment rate fell to 4.2%. This was below the estimate of 115k, but it does follow three strong months of payroll growth.  After looking through the report, there are several numbers that raise some important questions.  The first is the labor force. About 720,000 people left the labor force in June, pushing the labor force participation rate down to 61.5%, the lowest since March 2021. Even more troubling is that if we exclude the Covid-era, it was the lowest labor force participation rate in exactly 50 years. When people stop looking for work, they are no longer counted as unemployed, which can make the unemployment rate appear stronger than it otherwise would.  Another surprising number was leisure and hospitality, which lost 61,000 jobs. June is typically one of the strongest hiring months of the year for hotels, restaurants, entertainment, and travel-related businesses. The Bureau of Labor Statistics attributed much of the decline to weaker-than-normal seasonal hiring, but it's still worth asking whether this reflects a temporary statistical issue or an early sign that consumer spending is beginning to soften. It is especially strange given the popularity of the World Cup and many speculated this would be a strong sector in the report. Goldman Sachs in particular estimated a gain of 40k in leisure and hospitality before the report was released.  Then there is the latest JOLTS report. Job openings stood at 7.6 million in May, showing employers are still looking for workers, but the question is if people are actually leaving the workforce can these jobs actually get filled?  One report never tells the entire story, but these numbers deserve a closer look. Was June simply an odd month because of seasonal adjustments? Or are we beginning to see a labor market that is slowing more quickly than the headline unemployment rate suggests? The next few months of data should help answer that question.    The biggest risk in AI may not be the technology, it may be the economics.  This week, Bradley Tusk and Ed Zitron raised important questions that investors shouldn't ignore.  Bradley Tusk (founder and CEO of Tusk Ventures and a venture capitalist) made an interesting observation: investors are treating frontier AI models the same. But China's AI companies are proving that powerful models can be developed much more cheaply and improve much faster than many expected. If lower-cost models continue to narrow the performance gap, AI models could become increasingly commoditized, making it much harder for companies spending hundreds of billions of dollars on infrastructure to earn attractive returns.  Ed Zitron (author, podcaster and tech industry critic) echoed a similar concern from a different angle. He argues that AI companies are engaged in an expensive arms race, pouring enormous amounts of capital into chips, data centers, and model development without proving that the economics will justify the investment. As he has said, companies are "burning money at an astonishing rate" while investors continue to assume future profits will eventually catch up.  This also ties into a warning from co-funder and CEO of Palantir Technologies, Alex Karp . He has criticized what he calls "token maxxing"—the idea that success in AI is simply about generating more tokens, building bigger models, and spending more on compute. Karp's point is that producing more AI output doesn't automatically create more business value. The companies that ultimately win will be the ones that solve real customer problems and generate durable profits, not necessarily those that consume the most GPUs or produce the most tokens.  History shows that revolutionary technologies don't always produce the best investments. The internet transformed the world, but many of the biggest companies of the dot-com era disappeared because expectations got too far ahead of profits.  AI will almost certainly reshape the economy. The bigger question for investors is whether the companies making the largest investments will ultimately earn the returns the market is expecting—or whether AI models become increasingly commoditized, leaving the biggest winners to be the businesses that successfully apply AI rather than simply build larger models.    Financial Planning: Trump Account Investment Options Released Ahead of $1,000 Seed Funding  Trump Accounts are expected to receive $1,000 of government seed money as soon as the 4th of July. If you have a child born in 2025 through 2028, you can apply online now at trumpaccounts.gov. This is basically a retirement account with a caveat, contributions can be made on behalf of children even if they don't have earned income.  However extra contributions are made on an after-tax non-Roth basis so no upfront tax deduction and no tax-free growth. Instead contributions establish cost basis and investment earnings grow tax-deferred, but are ultimately taxed upon withdrawal at ordinary income rates. In practice, this tax deferral benefit is overstated. This week the Treasury Department released 5 investment options: SPYM, IVV, VTI, ITOT, and SPTM. These are virtually all the same investment, a low fee fund that is heavily weighted toward the largest US companies. This means there is no reason to sell or rebalance, so the only real option is to buy and hold.  Buying and holding can also be done in a regular brokerage account with tax deferred until sale, but at the lower, potentially 0%, long-term capital gains rates rather than the higher ordinary income rates. Some planning strategies involve funding the Trump account and later converting it to a Roth. However, those conversions would still trigger tax at ordinary income rates and potentially trigger the kiddie tax, pulling the income into the parent's tax bracket. Since in every possible situation, the long-term capital gain tax rate is always less than the ordinary income tax rate, a better strategy may be to fund a brokerage account and use the future proceeds to make contributions to Roth accounts which likely could be done tax-free rather than funding a Trump account and eventually making Roth conversions at a higher rate. For this reason, while the $1,000 government seed contribution is worth it, additional voluntary contributions may be less attractive compared to already available alternatives.    Companies Discussed: Meta Platforms, Inc.

We closed out this series by asking what we actually believe happens at the end of the story. Most of us grew up with a picture of heaven that never really came from the Bible. Souls floating up to clouds, harps, pearly gates. That picture owes more to Greek philosophy than it does to Scripture. Plato taught that the body is a prison and the goal of life is escaping it. The real hope in the Bible runs the other direction.We walked through Revelation 21 and 22, where John sees a new heaven and a new earth, and the Holy City coming down out of heaven to earth. Not us leaving for somewhere else. God moving in with us, for good. We looked at Isaiah 65, where the picture of eternity is houses being built and lived in, vineyards planted and eaten from, real work that never gets stolen from us again. We looked at 1 Corinthians 15, where Paul describes our future bodies as a seed becomes a plant, the same thing, fully grown and fully realized. And we looked at Romans 8, where all of creation is described not as dying but as groaning like a woman in labor, on its way toward being born into something new.We traced the whole arc of the Bible from a garden in Genesis to a garden city in Revelation. A tent built like a garden, a temple carved like a garden, a man buried and raised in a garden, and finally a whole renewed world grown up into what Eden was always meant to become.The application this week is simple. Gratitude. Thank God for your body, the one you have and the one that is coming. Thank him for the parts of this earth you love. Thank him for the people you have lost, and for the reunion that is coming. Thank him that he is not done with this planet, and he is not done with us.URF WEBSITE: ➤ http://www.urfellowship.comSOCIALS: ➤ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/urfellowship/➤ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/urfellowship

In this episode, we are joined by registered dietitian and public health nutritionist Ginny Messina, MPH, RD, one of the most respected voices in plant-based nutrition.We dive into the growing controversy surrounding plant-based meat alternatives and ultra-processed foods (UPFs). Are plant-based burgers and sausages really as unhealthy as some headlines suggest? Does the UPF label tell us everything we need to know about a food's health effects? And how should we think about plant-based meat within the context of an overall healthy dietary pattern?Ginny is the author and co-author of several influential books, including Vegan for Life, and Even Vegans Die. She has spent decades helping people adopt nutritionally adequate plant-based diets grounded in science  In this episode she brings her trademark evidence-based and nuanced perspective to explore:• What the science actually says about plant-based meat alternatives• The strengths and limitations of the NOVA classification system• Whether all ultra-processed foods should be viewed equally• The role of plant-based meats in supporting dietary transitions• Nutrient considerations for vegans and vegetarians• How to separate nutrition science from social media sensationalismhttps://www.frontiersin.org/journals/nutrition/articles/10.3389/fnut.2025.1641234/fullTo connect with Ginny: Website: The Vegan RDhttps://www.theveganrd.comSubstack: Resistance Kitchenhttps://theresistancekitchen.substack.comBooks:https://www.theveganrd.com/mybooks/Vegan Nutrition Resources:https://www.theveganrd.com/vegan-nutrition-101/If you enjoyed this episode, please consider subscribing, leaving a review, and sharing it with someone who may be interested in learning more too. If you'd like to support our work and be part of a growing community of like-minded people working towards creating a healthier and more sustainable future please join the Plant-Based Health Professionals UK following the link below:https://plantbasedhealthprofessionals.com/membershipYou don't have to be a health care professional to join, but by doing so you're not only supporting our work, you'll be improving your own health;  with membership starting from as little as £15 a year, join us now and be part of the change you want to see.

On the day of Pentecost, fire showed up again. Centuries earlier, fire and smoke covered Mount Sinai when God gave the law to Moses, and anyone who touched that mountain paid for it with their life. Fifty days after Passover, on the same festival that marked that moment, the fire of God's presence returned. This time it skipped the building and landed on people. A room full of fishermen, a former tax collector, and a group of faithful women became, in an instant, living temples for the presence of God.We look at why that moment didn't end the way Sinai did. The cross changed the situation. When Jesus took on our sin and our brokenness, the temple curtain tore in half, and the danger of getting close to a holy God disappeared. The Spirit moved in to do what He had wanted to do from the start, live with His people, in His people.We also look at the list of nations in Acts 2, a list that mirrors the Table of Nations from Genesis, right before the Tower of Babel. At Babel, humanity tried to climb up and grab God's authority for itself, and ended up scattered. At Pentecost, God came down, and the Spirit gathered the nations back together, languages and all.From there, the early church put that gathering into practice. People sold what they had to cover what others needed. Nobody was shamed into it and no law required it. It was a living preview of the kingdom of God, a Jubilee economy lived out at the kitchen table.We close by looking at the actual grammar behind the Great Commission. "Go" is a participle. It assumes we're already going somewhere, every day, to work, to the store, to school. The command is to make disciples wherever that going already takes us. Our assignment this week is simple. Help one person take one step closer to Jesus, wherever they happen to be starting from.URF WEBSITE: ➤ http://www.urfellowship.comSOCIALS: ➤ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/urfellowship/➤ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/urfellowship

What happens when a viral story about Down syndrome reaches millions of people-but leaves out the voices of those who actually live it every day? In this episode of the T21Mom podcast, Mary is joined by fellow rockin' mom and advocate Misty Snyder for an important conversation about a recent viral YouTube video that has sparked strong emotions throughout the Down syndrome community. Together, they discuss why this story resonated so deeply with parents, self-advocates and families; the impact of fear-based messaging and misinformation; and how language shapes public perception of people with Down syndrome. Most importantly, this episode is a reminder that people with Down syndrome are not diagnoses, statistics, or assumptions.  They are individuals with dreams, personalities, relationships, challenges and extraordinary contributions to makes.  Whether you're a parent, family member, educator, advocate, or someone who simply wants to better understand the Down syndrome community, this conversation offers perspective, compassion and hope.

In this episode of The Penis Project Podcast, Melissa sits down with Don and Clare, a couple who have lived through the messy, emotional and often under discussed reality of prostate cancer recovery.  Don was diagnosed just before his 65th birthday after his PSA rose from around 4 to over 9. A biopsy showed aggressive Gleason 9 prostate cancer, and within six weeks his prostate was removed. His PSA is now undetectable, which is the result everyone hopes for. But, as Don and Clare explain, being “cancer-free” did not mean life went back to normal.   After surgery, Don experienced severe ongoing urinary incontinence. Despite doing all the pelvic floor exercises and following instructions, he was still incontinent 18 months later. Eventually, after further review, he was referred for an artificial urinary sphincter, which has made a huge difference to his quality of life.   This episode is about more than leakage, pads, clips and surgery. It is about what happens when a man feels lost in the medical system. It is about the emotional toll of prostate cancer on both partners. It is about the importance of honesty, asking questions, changing teams if needed, and remembering that there is a person attached to the prostate.  In This Episode, We Cover:  The emotional impact of severe urinary leakage   Why pelvic floor exercises do not fix every case of incontinence   What can be done when continence doesn't recover  Clare's perspective as a partner watching Don struggle   How hormone therapy affected Don's mood, personality and relationship   The importance of being told the full picture, not just the “curative” plan   Why some men need an artificial urinary sphincter   The importance of second opinions and finding a team that sees the whole person   Why prostate cancer recovery is a couple's issue, not just a man's issue    Key Takeaway: An undetectable PSA is wonderful, but it is not the whole story; quality of life matters.    Key message from Don and Clare:   People need honest information.  Don and Clare do not regret the cancer treatment. Don says the surgery likely saved his life. But they both wish they had been told earlier that his continence recovery was unlikely to happen without further intervention. Clare explains that people may not want bad news, but they do want the truth.  That truth gives people options. It helps them plan. It helps them understand that they are not failing. And it can prevent months, or even years, of unnecessary suffering.    Resources & Links:  Book a telehealth consult with our sexual health nurse practitioners at Restorative Health Clinic  For more information check out our websites www.rshealth.com.au , www.makehardeasy.com.au and www.melissahadleybarrett.com.au   Listen & Subscribe  If you found this episode helpful, don't forget to subscribe, rate, and review the podcast!

Could you have metabolic dysfunction even at a normal weight?This episode challenges everything we've been taught about weight and health. Dr. Cooper reveals that up to 25% of normal-weight people have metabolic syndrome, yet they're rarely screened because doctors assume they're healthy based on appearance alone.KEY TAKEAWAYSWeight and metabolic health are not the same thing - you can be metabolically unhealthy at any sizeNormal weight people with metabolic dysfunction are often overlooked and undertreated by healthcare providersKey screening tests include fasting glucose, insulin, HbA1c, triglycerides, HDL cholesterol, blood pressure, and inflammatory markers like HSCRPMetabolic dysfunction can start in your 20s and take decades to develop into serious diseaseBoth normal weight and higher weight patients face bias - normal weight people aren't screened enough, while higher weight people have everything blamed on their weightEarly screening and treatment can prevent catastrophic health outcomes later in lifeThe liver plays a crucial role in metabolism and can become insulin resistant regardless of body weightNOTABLE QUOTE"You cannot tell anything about someone's health from their outside, what they look like or what, even what they're doing necessarily, but definitely not their body size. So you can be healthy or unhealthy at any size body, and I think that's what's overlooked quite a bit." — Dr. Emily CooperLinks & ResourcesPodcast Home: fatsciencepodcast.comCooper Center for Metabolism: coopermetabolic.comResources from Dr. Cooper: coopermetabolic.com/resourcesJoin Our Community: patreon.com/cw/FatSciencePodcastSubmit Your Question: questions@fatsciencepodcast.com or dr.c@fatsciencepodcast.comAppendix: Key ReferencesPrimary literature supporting this episode•       Wang et al.

We are in week nine of our series, The Whole Story, and this week we landed in the middle of the most pivotal moment in history. After four hundred years of silence, after Babylon and Persia and Greece and Rome had all taken their turns crushing God's people, something finally happened. And it happened in the way nobody anticipated.We looked at the four main groups who were waiting for God to move. The Pharisees believed that stricter rule-following would eventually force God's hand. The Sadducees worked the political system from the inside and kept the institution running smoothly. The Zealots wanted a military revolution. The Essenes gave up entirely and moved to the desert to wait it out. Every single group had a diagnosis of the problem and a human strategy to fix it.Then Jesus walked in and disappointed every last one of them.We traced a consistent pattern through His ministry. In the ancient purity system, contamination only moved one direction, from the unclean to the clean. Nobody touched a leper. Jesus touched the leper, and the direction reversed. Wholeness moved from Him into the broken person. That same pattern ran through every healing, every dinner party with the wrong crowd, every conversation at the wrong table.We looked at the cross through that same lens. Every dark, broken, violent force in human experience showed up at once and threw everything it had at Jesus. And He absorbed it. He held the betrayal, the rigged trial, the whip, the nails, the mockery, and He did not pass a single ounce of it back. Evil ran out of power.And then the tomb was empty.The resurrection confirmed what the cross accomplished. And forty days later, Jesus ascended, not into retirement, but into the throne room. He is ruling right now.His strategy was never a political movement or a religious system. It was a vine and its branches. Stay connected, and the life flows through you naturally. That life is still moving, right here, this week.URF WEBSITE: ➤ http://www.urfellowship.comSOCIALS: ➤ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/urfellowship/➤ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/urfellowship

Why do high-conflict people completely rewrite the story after you leave the relationship? In this video, I break down exactly what happens when you walk away from someone with narcissistic or high-conflict traits — and why they feel the need to distort the truth, launch smear campaigns, and turn everyone against you.After you leave, they don't just miss you — they panic. Without you to blame, they have to create a whole new version of reality where they're the hero and you're the villain. This isn't about truth. It's about control, ego, and avoiding accountability at all costs.In this video, you'll learn:→ Why high-conflict people rewrite history after you leave→ The psychology behind smear campaigns and "flying monkeys"→ How narcissists use gaslighting to make you question your own reality→ What happens when they lose control of the narrative→ How to protect yourself while they spread lies about you→ Why staying silent and documenting everything is your best defense→ When and how to walk away for good — without looking backWhether you're dealing with a narcissistic ex, a high-conflict co-parent, or someone with borderline or antisocial traits, this video will give you the clarity you need to understand what's really happening — and how to stay strong through it.Connect with Lee:My Courses: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://courses.mentalhealness.net⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ 1-on-1 Coaching Calls: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://link.me/mentalhealness⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠All My Link: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://beacons.page/mentalhealness ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow on Instagram/TikTok: @mentalhealnesss

We all know the move. Something feels off, stuck, or broken inside, and our first instinct is to look outward. Change the job, the address, the relationship, the scenery. We are convinced our primary problems are out there somewhere, waiting to be solved by the right external circumstances.This week we walked through five hundred years of Israel's history, from the chaos of Judges to the collapse of the monarchy to the smoke rising over the ruins of Jerusalem. And what that story shows us, relentlessly and without flattery, is that the external fix has never worked. Israel walked into the Promised Land and received everything. Houses they didn't build, fields they didn't clear, freedom they didn't earn. If a perfect environment could repair a broken heart, Israel should have thrived. Instead, within a generation, the spiral begins. They chase kings, Solomon builds a temple of gold, and still the drift continues until Babylon burns it all down.The diagnosis the text delivers is this: the human problem is not structural or circumstantial. It runs deeper than any king or system or fresh start can reach. Israel kept reaching for outside fixes for an inside problem. So do we.But right in the middle of the ash and the exile, the prophets begin to speak about something completely different. Ezekiel promises a new heart. Jeremiah promises a new covenant written not on stone but on human hearts. God was not planning a better set of rules. He was planning a surgery.When Jesus arrives, he steps into that long history and begins building a different kind of kingdom. Not a political program, not an empire, but the rule of God operating from inside ordinary human lives. His Spirit takes up residence, and what grows from that is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness. Fruit that no amount of striving or circumstance-arranging can manufacture.We cannot get there by rearranging our outside world. There is only one path. A new heart.URF WEBSITE: ➤ http://www.urfellowship.comSOCIALS: ➤ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/urfellowship/➤ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/urfellowship

In this episode of Money Matters, brought to you by Greenberg Financial Group, the team digs into the sharp and violent market pullback that marked the worst day of the year for tech stocks so far. It felt dramatic, and the headlines certainly made it sound that way, but we explain why those headlines can be misleading. Even after the drop, the markets are still well higher for the year, and a little perspective goes a long way right now. We talk through how investors can think about volatility like this without getting swept up in the fear of the moment, and why a sharp move in the market looks very different depending on whether you are zoomed in on a single day or zoomed out on the bigger picture. And that ties directly into our financial planning process, because this is exactly why our clients are not the ones calling in a panic when the headlines turn red. They are not reacting, because they know they have a plan. That peace of mind is the whole point, and it is what allows you to look at a turbulent day with a clear head rather than a racing one. We are also joined by a special guest to dig into the Credit Access Line, or CAL, and why these lines are more popular than ever right now. It is one of those tools that remains surprisingly underutilized and misunderstood, and we break down how it works and why so many people are using it as a way to, in a sense, become their own bank. If you have never explored how a CAL fits into a broader financial picture, this is a conversation worth tuning in for. We also dive into the AI disruption playing out across industries right now, and the technological advancements you will want to know about to stay on the cutting edge of where things are heading next.

As borrowing power tightens and more Australians find themselves financially stretched despite earning good incomes, property finance architect and broker Sharyn Burgess says the real issue for many aspiring property investors is not property itself, it is the financial structure sitting underneath it. In this rolled gold revisit, Bushy returns to the PROPERTY WEALTH Clock and the critical E Stage — EXAMINE — where the focus shifts from aspiration and awareness to financial reality. Because before people can build meaningful wealth through property, they first need to honestly examine the foundations they are building from. Sharyn explains why a home loan is only the tip of the iceberg, and why finance should never be treated as a purely mechanical transaction. The real role of strategic finance, she argues, is helping people improve their position, create flexibility and change the trajectory of their lives over time. It is a perspective shaped not only by decades in banking and finance, but also by her own personal journey through business ownership, motherhood, divorce, hearing loss and rebuilding financially and emotionally after major life disruption. What emerges is far more than a conversation about lending and borrowing capacity. Bushy and Sharyn unpack the emotional side of money, the hidden financial habits that quietly restrict future opportunity, and the reality that most wealth journeys are messy, imperfect and rarely linear. That honesty gives the episode real weight, particularly for listeners who feel behind financially or trapped by previous decisions. One of the strongest concepts in the conversation is Sharyn’s definition of financial freedom as “choice time” — the ability to create enough financial flexibility to choose how you want to live, work and spend your life, rather than simply reacting to pressure and circumstance. The timing of this episode also matters within the broader PROPERTY WEALTH Clock framework. The recent Aaron Christie-David episodes focused on awareness, behaviour and decision-making patterns. This conversation takes the next step by examining the financial reality underneath those behaviours, helping listeners identify the gaps between where they are today and the future they are trying to create. In this episode, you’ll discover: Why most people misunderstand the true role of finance The hidden financial gaps that quietly limit wealth creation Why borrowing power shapes far more than property decisions How life setbacks can become major financial turning points Why property journeys are rarely smooth or predictable The emotional impact of financial stress and rebuilding How better financial structure creates more future choices Why resilience matters just as much as financial intelligence The meaning behind “choice time” and true financial freedom Why honest financial examination is the essential starting point for wealth Take the next step with Bushy Personal Solutions Session Get clarity and personalised guidance: Book now Property W.E.A.L.T.H Program - live now!

There is a moment in Exodus where Moses asks God for a name, and God refuses to give him one. "I AM WHO I AM." It is less an answer than a declaration that God cannot be categorized, cannot be placed on a shelf next to the other options. That refusal sets the whole story in motion.We follow Moses back into Egypt, where Pharaoh asks a question that sounds ancient but lands close to home: "Who is the Lord that I should obey?" The ten plagues are God's answer. One by one, every power Egypt trusted to keep the world stable gets exposed. The Nile. The sun. The livestock. The gods the empire had named and organized and counted on. All of them fall silent.But God was not just making a point to Pharaoh. He was making one to Israel. Four hundred years in Egypt had shaped the way those people thought about safety, identity, and survival. God was not simply getting his people out of Egypt. He was working to get Egypt out of his people.We look at the Passover and find something that cuts through every religious instinct we carry. Two households. Two very different people. Both covered by the same blood. The safety of the house did not depend on the quality of the faith inside it. It depended on the blood of the lamb on the door.That image reaches all the way to the cross. Jesus, the lamb without defect, painting the wood with his own life so that our record reads covered. Not the Sunday morning version of us. The Tuesday afternoon version. The one who is still figuring it out.So we are invited to audit what we are actually trusting. To stop bargaining with the burning bush. And to leave, even before the bread has time to rise.URF WEBSITE: ➤ http://www.urfellowship.comSOCIALS: ➤ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/urfellowship/➤ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/urfellowship

In this episode of Paradigm Shifting Books, hosts Stephen Covey and Britain Covey dive into Daniel Pink's groundbreaking book Drive, which challenges everything we think we know about what motivates people. They explore why the traditional "carrot and stick" approach to motivation works for some tasks but actively undermines the kind of complex, creative work that defines most of what we do today. Drawing on decades of social science research, Pink lays out a compelling framework for understanding what truly drives human performance.Stephen and Britain reflect on how these ideas apply far beyond the office, from NFL locker rooms to families to personal growth. Britain shares a vivid story from his time as a scout team player in the NFL, illustrating how a simple moment of recognition from a coach unlocked a sense of purpose he had not felt before. Stephen ties the book's core principles, autonomy, mastery, and purpose, directly to leadership, noting that when leaders design environments around these three drivers, motivation follows naturally. This episode is a must listen for anyone who leads a team, raises a family, or simply wants to understand what makes us do our best work.What We Discuss[00:00] Introduction[00:35] Why Dan Wrote Drive[02:11] Carrots Sticks Problem[04:10] If Then Rewards: When They Work and When They Don't[06:43] Money as a Threshold Motivator, Not the Whole Story[13:09] Autonomy, Mastery, and Purpose: The Three Core Motivators[16:00] NFL Story on Purpose[18:33] Connecting Drive to Leadership, Sports, and Life[21:05] Resume Virtues vs. Eulogy Virtues: Redefining Success Notable Quotes[04:30] "If-then rewards are very effective for simple tasks with short time horizons." – Daniel Pink[06:17] "The problem with if-then rewards is not the reward, it's the contingency, the if-thenness of it.

In this episode of Empowered Radio, host Emma Montgomery revisits one of the most debated topics in nutrition: meal timing. Emma shares what she used to believe as a coach - that calories were the only thing that mattered - and how years of personal experience and working with clients changed her mind.She unpacks how meal timing affects hunger, cravings, binge eating patterns, sleep quality, scale fluctuations, and workout performance. This isn't about rigid meal schedules or debunking myths; it's about building eating patterns that actually support sustainable fat loss and a healthier relationship with food.Apply for coaching Join the Monthly Membership Submit a question for the podcast HAPI supplementsThe EmPowered Community free Facebook group Follow Emma on InstagramFollow Emma on Facebook

Send me a Text Message! One thing that has impacted me in the last two chapters of Nehemiah is the reality that we do not know the whole story. In our arrogance or ignorance, sometimes we act like we know the whole story. But we don't, at best we see a chapter or two.  When you brush shoulders with people in the grocery story, jog past someone on the street, glance at the person stopped beside you at the light, just realize at best you are just seeing the cover of the book,  a page or two. You don't know the whole story.  Even when it's your story. You don't even know the whole story of your story. Sure you know more about your book than anyone else's but you don't know the whole story of your life. Because you aren't the author, God is!

Our journey through the sweeping narrative of Scripture brings us to a moment where everything seems to have gone completely sideways. Humanity is scattered, language is divided, and the divine image in us appears deeply bent. God responds to this global chaos not by choosing an obvious, powerful empire, but by calling a seventy-five-year-old pagan moon-worshiper named Abraham from the middle of nowhere. This establishes a comforting pattern that repeats across the entire Bible. God consistently chooses the unlikely vessel so that the ultimate rescue cannot be credited to human strength.In Genesis 12, Abraham receives a massive invitation to leave his country, his people, and his inheritance. He is asked to walk away from his entire identity and move toward an unknown destination. God attaches five beautiful promises to this single act of movement, anchoring a covenant that vows to restore the original blessing to every family of the ground. When we take matters into our own hands because the divine timeline feels too slow, we create relational wreckage. Yet, even in our failures, God pursues the vulnerable. The very first appearance of the angel of the Lord occurs in the wilderness to Hagar, a pregnant runaway with no power. She gives God the name El Roi, the God who sees me.This story carries us through generations of waiting, laughing at the impossible, and enduring extreme testing on a mountain peak where God dismantles the violent expectations of ancient religion. The gods of the nations consume, but our God provides a substitute. The promise survives a brutal four-hundred-year furnace of Egyptian slavery where a community identity is forged in the mud and bricks. From the courageous civil disobedience of two midwives to a baby floating in a basket down a dangerous river, God protects the deliverer. We are the current links in this ancient chain. We are uniquely crafted works of art, carrying the blessing forward to a world waiting to be seen.URF WEBSITE: ➤ http://www.urfellowship.comSOCIALS: ➤ Instagram:   / urfellowship  ➤ Facebook:   / urfellowship  

This week we walked through one of the hardest and most necessary sections of Scripture: the fall. Genesis 3 opens with a serpent making a familiar move, taking the generous goodness of God and reframing it as restriction. The offer to Adam and Eve was a claim to authority: stop receiving wisdom from your Creator and become the definer yourself. They took it. And everything changed.The consequences spread immediately. Shame flooded in. Relationships fractured. Work became hard. Death entered the story. And then, from Genesis 4 through 11, we watched sin do what it always does: escalate. A garden becomes a murder field. A murder becomes a brag. Civilizations organize themselves around rebellion. By Genesis 6, God grieves over what his creation has become.But even inside the consequences of the fall, God plants a promise. Genesis 3:15 hints at an offspring who will crush the serpent. Something has to die to cover human shame, and that thread runs all the way to the cross.Romans 5 gives us the frame for all of it: two men, two acts, two results. Where Adam grasped, Jesus emptied himself. Where Adam hid in shame, Jesus endured it publicly. Every move of the first Adam is reversed by the second. When we put our faith in Christ, we are joined to that second Adam, and the bent image begins to be straightened from the inside.Scripture references: Genesis 3-11, Romans 5:8, 18-20, Romans 8:22, 2 Corinthians 3:18, Matthew 27:51URF WEBSITE: ➤ http://www.urfellowship.comSOCIALS: ➤ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/urfellowship/➤ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/urfellowship

In this episode, Jason challenges one of the most misunderstood concepts in lean construction: the idea that eliminating waste is always the primary goal. While waste reduction matters, Jason explains why focusing only on "cutting waste" can actually destroy flow, destabilize systems, and hurt project performance. Using examples from NASCAR pit crews, buffers in Takt planning, foremen supervision, and the Theory of Constraints, Jason explains that lean is not about maximizing utilization everywhere, it's about protecting throughput, flow, and system stability. Sometimes what looks like "waste" is actually critical support for the system to function properly. What you'll learn in this episode: Why eliminating waste is not the ultimate goal of lean. How the Theory of Constraints changes the way we think about efficiency. Why buffers and stabilization time are essential to production flow. How over-focusing on utilization can damage project performance. Why non-working foremen, empty zones, and standby resources are sometimes necessary. How system thinking prevents "lean" from becoming destructive. Are you optimizing individual activities or protecting the overall flow of the system?

Family life is full of moments that don't go the way we hoped they would — and so much of love is built in what happens next. This conversation starts with young moms raising little kids, but it reaches into something every parent recognizes: the long, imperfect, deeply human work of finding our way back to each other again.

Is a city “dynamic” just because its charts point up and to the right? Chuck uses a week in the UK to question that assumption. In Manchester, a swelling population of 20‑somethings looks like success, until you notice how many smaller places have been drained to supply that energy. In one of those towns, residents speak of decline, crime, and the loss of their pub, even as few can name a moment they truly felt unsafe. Across focus groups, government programs, and carefully planned districts, he traces the same pattern and asks: when growth is easy to measure, what deeper dynamism are we missing?
