How constant global tension impacts veterans, caregivers, and everyday focus Episode Overview In this episode, Patti Katter steps back from the headlines to focus on something often overlooked—the mental toll of constant exposure to war, tension, and nonstop information. With today’s environment, many people feel overwhelmed, distracted, and on edge. For military veterans, this can bring up past experiences in unexpected ways. For caregivers and families, it can create a different kind of stress—carrying the weight of both the present and the past. This is not a political discussion. It’s a real conversation about awareness, mental clarity, and protecting your mindset in a high-noise world. Key Takeaway You can’t control what’s happening in the world—but you can protect your mind, your environment, and your ability to think clearly.

Gina Gardiner & Friends with Mike Wade

In today's episode, we take a deep dive into the hidden world of fungal infections, posture issues, and holistic foot care—and how these often-overlooked problems influence your entire body. From plantar warts and athlete's foot to fungal toenails, corns, calluses, and overgrown toe skin, we uncover what causes these conditions, early warning signs, and how to support natural healing safely and effectively. You'll learn how fungal spores thrive, how posture and weight distribution impact chronic foot problems, and why foot health is deeply connected to circulation, immunity, stress, and biomechanical alignment. We explore essential oils, natural remedies, ozone oils, hydrogen peroxide protocols, Sunlight disinfection, and why some household products—like bleach or borax—are not ideal for long-term skin contact. We also break down: ⭐ The early stages of toenail fungus and why quick action matters ⭐ How to improve circulation naturally for faster nail recovery ⭐ The difference between plantar warts vs. calluses vs. corns ⭐ Why "overgrown toe skin" is replacing the outdated term ingrown toenails ⭐ The Vandenbos surgery and why it’s the gold standard for chronic toe-skin overgrowth ⭐ How posture, footwear, and gait contribute to recurring foot issues ⭐ When natural remedies help—and when medical support is needed Please note: Some links may be affiliate links, which means I may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you.

Winning in an Imperfect World To win, we must first understand the world that we live in. We discuss the government, education, and mindset. We also need to understand that nothing is truly flawless but that we can love and respect something even if it isn't perfect. We talk about living in the Warehouse and how it wasn't perfect living conditions. However, what was gained from that time set us up for a much better future. Appreciate where you are and what you have, even if you want to have more someday. If someone else has achieved more and has earned more than you, learn what they did, so you can emulate the good behaviors and mindset that got them there. We can create a great life for ourselves and our children. Our mindset, our will, and our actions will determine our outcome. A big lesson is that for us to win, no one has lose. Everyone involved in a deal can win and walk away happy. We relate some of the things that we have learned to history as well as today, so you can learn how you can win in an imperfect world!

About Sebastian Sebastian traded his 15+ year career in corporate leadership for following his passion for coaching. Only to find that he (!) was the most difficult boss to work for. It took several years of clearing up his (hidden) stories of self-doubt and fear of failure to (re)connect with his own emotions, align with his true self, and find the courage to help others do the same. Sebastian now supports coaches and entrepreneurs in getting over the unconscious and irrational fears that blocks them from taking action, but he is also providing executive coaching in ‘Big Corporate’.

Meet Lynn Twitchell: I went on my first build with Habitat for Humanity in 2001 and was hooked. I loved building together with the team and people in the community. I’ve been leading teams ever since and been very fortunate to meet wonderful people and visit many countries while building houses. I have built with the Fuller Center in Haiti, El Salvador, Ghana, Sri Lanka and Peru and am looking forward to having Nepal on the list. We will build in the village of Trishuli, about 50 miles north of Kathmandu. The local Fuller Center has introduced a new building technology for Nepal by making and utilizing concrete blocks. These blocks cost much less than traditional fired bricks and are better for the environment. Each Fuller Center home includes two bedrooms, a kitchen and a bath with a shower and a toilet and is supplied with the capability of electricity, water and plumbing. Trishuli was roughly 30 miles from the epicenter of the April 25, 2015 earthquake. The area was greatly affected, and many homes in the area were destroyed however, all of the Fuller Center homes survived and are in excellent condition. If you are interested in experiencing Nepal up close and personal, this is a good trip for you. If you have construction skills you would like to put to use, it would be wonderful. If not and you are willing to learn new skills, that would be terrific, as we will be working with experienced builders who will let us know what we will need to do to help. I expect we will be able to find work for volunteers of any ability and hope the people on the team can be flexible with assignments. I look forward to recruiting a team of fun-loving, flexible, adventurous folks and having a rewarding experience working with families while building their homes. Lynn still volunteers in 2026 and has completed 26 builds in 13 countries.

In this inspiring episode of Where Science Meets Self-Care, host Ida Fanelli of Brushwood Media Networks welcomes two remarkable guests from the Miss Fuller Woman Competition — Hannah Schulz, Miss Fuller Woman Queen 2025, and Holly Leman, MFWC Committee Member and Plexus Worldwide Brand Ambassador. The Miss Fuller Woman Competition is a Canadian platform that celebrates fuller-figured women, body confidence, leadership, visibility, self-love, and personal growth. This is far more than a crown or title — it is a movement that helps women embrace their worth, challenge outdated beauty standards, and step into their power with courage and authenticity. In this conversation, Hannah shares her journey as Miss Fuller Woman Queen 2025, representing Grande Prairie, Alberta, with roots in Drumheller, and speaks about breaking stereotypes, owning her identity, and empowering women and youth to use their voices boldly. Holly Leman shares how witnessing the transformation of women through MFWC inspired her to join the committee, and how her work in wellness, energy, gut health, and women’s encouragement aligns with the mission of this empowering competition. Together, we explore: ✨ body positivity and self-acceptance ✨ women’s empowerment and confidence ✨ leadership and personal transformation ✨ breaking beauty stereotypes ✨ wellness, growth, and self-love ✨ the mission and impact of the Miss Fuller Woman Competition This episode is for anyone interested in women’s empowerment, plus-size confidence, body-positive leadership, self-worth, pageant transformation stories, and uplifting conversations that inspire courage and visibility.

FF- The Greatest Economy? The Numbers Say Otherwise! President Trump claimed we have the "greatest economy," however, the numbers tell a different story. We talk about the Dow, jobs, oil, debt-to-GDP ratio, and other important metrics. If you can look at the numbers, you can see through any claims made by the government that are not accurate. If you can read situations more accurately, you can make better decisions. We also talk about how county auditors in Ohio are reporting that we should expect another jump in property values. We discuss why their aren't evaluating properties correctly as well as what taxpayers can do if they get a value that is inaccurate. Use all of this information to make your world a better place!

Government Accountability Needed There is a big difference between being licensed to do something and being qualified to do it. There is also a big difference between someone who is responsible enough to have set aside cash to buy a house and an immigrant taking a bag full of hundred-dollar bills and multiple passports. Unfortunately, our government seems to be punishing the innocent citizens while letting guilty parties go free. Where is the accountability? We talk about multiple government agencies that we had to deal with just over a 2 day period. Is that agency beneficial? Should our tax money be spent on those agencies? We need to rein in governmental agencies and figure out who is really helping versus those who aren't doing their job. If you are seeing similar problems and want to see there be some accountability, this is the episode for you!

Guest: Andrew Parrillo, Financial Expert and Author Introduction Dr. Allen Lycka welcomes Andrew Parrillo, a seasoned financial expert with over four decades of experience. Andrew is the founder of Newport Capital Advisors LLC and Victory Road Investors LLC. He authored "Beat The Wealth Management Hustle," a book aimed at helping individuals invest independently and confidently. Andrew shares his vast experience in finance, including his early career in banking, his insights on market behavior, and the principles that guide successful long-term investing. Getting Started in Investing Andrew discusses how he got into investing by chance, starting in a bank management training program after his military service. He was mentored by a well-respected investment research head and quickly rose to a significant position in the largest trust bank in Rhode Island. His love for competition and the challenge of investing has fueled his passion for the field ever since. Market Highs and Lows Dr. Lycka and Andrew discuss the significant market crashes Andrew has witnessed, including Black Monday in 1987 and the 2008 financial crisis. Andrew emphasizes that market behavior is often driven by human psychology, particularly the tendency to panic. He explains that understanding this behavior is key to maintaining a long-term investment strategy. The Power of Compound Interest Andrew highlights the importance of understanding compound interest and the impact of fees on investment returns. He uses the example of a 1% management fee over 20 years, which can significantly reduce an investor’s potential gains. He argues that many people pay for financial advice they don't need, and that understanding the basics of investing can save them a substantial amount of money over time. The S&P 500 as a Benchmark Andrew discusses the S&P 500 as the benchmark for most professional investors. He notes that while some advisors may claim to outperform the market, very few can do so consistently after fees. He advises individual investors to consider low-fee index funds as a viable alternative to managed funds. Emotional Responses in Investing Andrew warns against making investment decisions based on emotions, especially in response to market volatility. He advocates for a disciplined, institutional approach to investing, where decisions are made based on long-term goals rather than short-term market fluctuations. Investing with Joy and Confidence Andrew introduces the concept of "indivestutional" investors—individuals who adopt an institutional approach to their personal investments. By following a structured, disciplined investment strategy, he believes anyone can invest with joy and confidence, without being swayed by market panic. Conclusion Dr. Lycka wraps up the conversation by emphasizing the value of Andrew’s book and the wisdom it offers to everyday investors. Andrew shares how listeners can get in touch with him and where they can purchase his book, "Beat The Wealth Management Hustle."

Gossip is one of the oldest social behaviors in human history. It shows up in workplaces, communities, families, and now more than ever, across social media. But why do people gossip in the first place? In this episode of The Vault Expert, Patti explores the psychology behind gossip and what it reveals about human nature. While gossip can sometimes seem harmless or entertaining, it often carries deeper motivations such as insecurity, social bonding, competition, or the desire for attention. Throughout the conversation, Patti reflects on how gossip spreads, why negative stories travel faster than positive ones, and how quickly rumors can influence how people see someone else. The episode also looks at how gossip can damage trust within communities and why strong leaders often choose not to participate in it. Topics covered in this episode include: • What gossip actually is and where the line is between conversation and rumor • Why people feel drawn to talking about others • The psychological reasons gossip spreads so easily • How gossip can damage reputations and relationships • What it says about someone when they refuse to engage in gossip • How to handle situations where you become the subject of gossip Rather than encouraging silence or avoidance, the episode focuses on awareness, character, and personal responsibility in the conversations we choose to participate in. In a culture where stories travel quickly and reputations can shift overnight, the way we speak about others when they are not in the room says a great deal about who we are.

Even Doing Nothing Can Get You Killed Murphy's Laws of Combat state that everything you do can get you killed, including doing nothing. Many people today will admit that Social Security will not be there for them when they retire, but they are not doing anything to prepare for their own retirement. Some even claim that they will just work until they die, but what happens when they are physically or mentally unable to work any longer? We talk about how people can and should start preparing now for their retirement, so they can have a better future later. Life isn't easy, and it is not always fair. However, you can take the steps to improve your life. In this episode, we cover gold, silver, Bitcoin, real estate, legacy media, sanctions, gas and oil, and more!

Is the Sky Falling? Everywhere you turn, it seems someone is claiming that the world is coming to an end. On X, they were talking about Blackrock has limited withdrawals while Blackstone & Blue Owl also have issues. Ohio Senate President Rob McCauley didn't think it was possible to make up a $24 billion hole if property taxes get abolished while another Representative seemed surprised that local governments may have to examine their excessive spending if there are no property taxes. We do not see the sky falling. We see states other than Ohio coming up with solutions for funding that are not as problematic as property taxes. We see that governments and schools need to cut spending. We understand that a company's contract will dictate what will happen with funds and when those events may happen. You can listen to the legacy media repeating the same talking points and working to produce fear or you can learn to look at events with logic and see the big picture. We also talk about how Pacific Legal Foundation and the 1851 Center for Constitutional Law work every day to protect our Constitutional rights.

I was born in Mexico and moved to San Diego 25 years ago. Having already built a career with close to 10 years of payroll and human resources experience in Mexico, starting again in San Diego was not easy. Back then, I was not able to speak the language, and I had to research and study to bring my career knowledge up to speed with American labor compliance. Thankfully, learning is my highest value, so I enjoyed the challenge, and being new in San Diego gave me many opportunities to learn new things. A few years after moving to San Diego, I had the opportunity to become a businesswoman. At the time, it seemed both scary and inspiring. I decided to start a new venture with my first company, United Payroll & HR Services, a local company with clients in California and mostly in San Diego. This company is what I call my firstborn, and has this year celebrated its 18th anniversary. United Payroll & HR Services personalizes our service for each client’s unique need. Over the years, I found that the most popular – and personally inspiring – part of our services was helping our clients resolve difficult situations with employees. As United Payroll & HR started to take off, and as I continued my studies in the area of personal growth, I started to learn more about the human mind. I learned about human behavior at a level of being able to resolve unbalanced perceptions for my clients, utilizing primarily a method created by Dr. John Demartini. As my studies and understanding of the mind deepened, I soon began facilitating with Dr. Demartini in many countries around the globe. At this point, I decided to launch my second-born company, Elena Sophia Life Balance. This company focuses on helping clients move from having a stressful life to living an inspired life. We help clients with their life mission and balancing the present in order to transform their future. Helping people reach their potential, clear their mind, and learn and understand more about themselves has been very rewarding. I began integrating the tools I’d been using for Elena Sophia Life Balance with my human resources business, helping resolve extremely difficult situations for both employers and employees. Based on the successful and very inspiring cases we were helping to solve in both companies, I then launched my newest business, The Alternative HR Solution. With this company, I use a combination of all the tools I have learned over the last 30 years to bring paradoxical and complex situations to a successful outcome, which saves an immense amount of stress, time, and money to both the employer and the employee. I am a negotiator, a conflict resolution consultant. I facilitate employers and employees to reach an agreement that fulfills both.

What if staying sharp has nothing to do with age and everything to do with curiosity? We sit down with Harry Mount, Editor of The Oldie Magazine, for a brisk, generous tour through a life shaped by language, architecture, bicycles, and the courage to change course. Harry opens with the soul of the magazine—why it prizes wit over celebrity and celebrates people “with snap in their celery”—and takes us inside Oldie Of The Year, where legends and unsung heroes share a stage and a laugh. From there, we travel to his “clearing” on the Pembrokeshire cliffs and the four moments that defined his path: the quiet impact of a brother he never met, a childhood powered by worry and exams, a sharp pivot from barrister-in-waiting to gossip columnist, and finally the long, lively challenge of editing a 100-page print institution. Along the way, Barry Humphries’ razor wit, Giles Brandreth’s encomiums, and the thrill of clean copy land with warmth and precision. Harry’s passions animate every page: the “R factor” of great buildings, from Vanbrugh to Hawksmoor; the classics as living tools woven through two-thirds of English; and the deceptive ease of comic prose from Wodehouse, Waugh, Mitford, and Amis. He shares honest distractions—the tug of the internet, the tonic of Hampstead ponds—and a love of press trips where purpose beats the pressure to have fun. There’s a personal twist too: his distant cousin Tony Adams, whose openness about addiction helped shift the culture around recovery. Two lines frame the wisdom here. From Virgil: “One day it will help to remember even these things,” a balm for hard seasons and a nudge toward meaning. From Arthur Balfour via Bill Deedes: “Nothing matters very much, and very few things matter at all,” a reminder to edit life with a lighter touch. The dream? To be remembered for a great comic novel—and, failing that, for meeting interesting people, doing interesting things, and writing them up right. If you love good stories, beautiful buildings, late‑period Elvis, and the feeling of wind-in-your-face clarity on a bike, you’ll feel at home. Listen, share with a friend who needs a purposeful nudge, and leave a review so more curious minds can find us.

Introduction Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) are released into the air after chemical reactions occur. These unstable compounds emit invisible gases from a wide range of sources. While not all VOCs are harmful—think of the pleasant scents from flowers or trees—many synthetic VOCs used in paints, coatings, adhesives, furniture, building materials, and aggressive cleaning products can pose serious health and environmental risks. These compounds vaporize easily at room temperature, making them a constant yet often overlooked presence in indoor environments. Interestingly, not all toxic industrial solvents are classified as VOCs, adding another layer of complexity to the topic. Long-term exposure to VOCs has been linked to toxic buildup in the body, contributing to liver and kidney damage, central nervous system disorders, and an increased risk of cancer. Beyond personal health, VOCs also contribute to air and water pollution and can even accelerate global warming. In this article, I’ll focus on the most common VOCs found in building materials and everyday household items—and explore how certain plants can naturally help reduce indoor VOC levels.

In times of conflict and uncertainty, information spreads quickly and emotions often follow just as fast. In this episode of The Vault Expert, Patti explores the psychology of propaganda and why it has been used throughout history to shape public perception. From ancient empires to modern media, propaganda has always been part of human communication. It is not always about lies. More often it is about framing information in ways that influence how people interpret events. With global tensions high in March 2026 and the world watching the escalating conflict with Iran, narratives are forming across governments, media outlets, and social platforms. Each message emphasizes certain facts, language, and imagery designed to shape how people see the situation. This episode breaks down how propaganda works, why humans are naturally susceptible to it, and how to remain thoughtful in a fast-moving information environment. You will hear discussion about: • The historical roots of propaganda from ancient Rome to modern wars • How governments have used messaging to rally populations and shape public opinion • Why emotional triggers like fear and anger make narratives spread faster • The role repetition and framing play in influencing perception • How modern technology and social media accelerate information warfare • Simple ways to slow down and think critically before reacting to headlines Rather than becoming cynical about every message, the goal is awareness. Understanding how narratives are built allows listeners to step back, ask better questions, and avoid reacting to the loudest voices in the room. In a world full of competing narratives, clear thinking and thoughtful conversation are more important than ever.

Colin Jackson, CBE, is our Sporting Champions Ambassador and, as legitimate athletics royalty, few can rival him as a mentor, motivator and a guide. Twice a World Champion at the 110m hurdles, and long-time world-record holder for both the 110m outdoor and the 60m indoor events, he’s gone on to forge a successful media career as both a commentator and pundit for the BBC, as well as appearing on Strictly Come Dancing and Dancing on Ice.

Colin will be available to the athletes at several mentoring days throughout the year, each of which focus on different topics that will impact an up-and-coming sports person’s life, such as learning how to talk to the media, nutrition and managing your finances as a self-employed athlete. Everyone Active and Colin have enjoyed a long and fruitful relationship both within and outside the Sporting Champions programme. As well as playing a key role in the scheme, Colin is also frequently seen at centre open days across the country, encouraging people – young and old – to take up activity; a subject he’s incredibly passionate about!
