In this episode, Sasha Cohen, former US Olympic figure skater, discusses the most challenging things about life as an Olympian—the pressures, the expectations, years of sacrifice, but worst of all a loss of identity post-career resulting in many former Olympians suffering from depression. We begin by talking about everything that led up to her unforgettable moment from the 2006 Olympics, and how she handled herself so beautifully in the face of disaster. Most importantly, we talk about post-skating life when she shares many insights such as the downside of constantly striving for a moment, the hollowness of achievement, and the importance of redefining our definition of success.

[1:18:30]; Why many former Olympians and athletes struggle with depression [1:25:00]; Refining success—How Sasha overcame her own loss of identity [1:32:30]; What advice would Sasha give her 15-year-old self? [1:40:45]; Lessons we can learn from watching the rapid downfall of many former Olympians [1:45:00]; Advice for people who are tying their identity to being “successful” or striving to be “the best” [1:56:00]; Life lessons Sasha wants to apply to being a mother to her baby boy she is expecting [2:05:00]; and More.

Galatians 5:1-15 In Greek mythology sailors had to navigate between two deadly monsters – Scylla and Charybdis – on opposing shores of a narrow stretch of water. The risk was that in seeking to steer away from one, they ended up in the clutches of the other. As Christians we too need to steer a course between two opposing dangers – legalism and licence. Galatians tells us how.

Uuuh, nu bliver det lidt uhyggeligt. Denne gang er det nemlig en helt speciel Halloween-Pixi! Tog- og bankrøveren Elmer McCurdy levede et farligt liv med masser af alkohol, skududvekslinger og nitroglycerin. Dog var han mest kendt for at være drønelendig til sit arbejde. Derfor var det heller ikke nogen overraskelse, da han i 1911 blev skudt og dræbt af det lokale politi. Men døden var langt fra enden på Elmer McCurdy. For selvom hans karriere var vanvittig allerede inden han tog sit sidste åndedræt, så var det ingenting i forhold til det liv hans krop ville komme til at leve efter døden...

Free Preview Clip https://www.peterbcollins.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/Bozuwa.mp3 As California endures third year of catastrophic wildfires, scholar Johanna Bozuwa of the Democracy Collaborative calls for public ownership of PG&E.Bozuwa published this article at The Nation recently, saying that Pacific Gas & Electric's repeated acts of criminal negligence show that the utility is unfit for its mission, and that public ownership could shift the focus from profits for investors to safety and hardening of infrastructure in response to climate change. Bozuwa is Co-Manager for the Climate and Energy Program at the Democracy Collaborative. We trace the sordid history of PG&E's capture of the state legislature and the Public Utilities Commission, going back to the bungled construction of the Diablo Canyon nuclear plant in the 1980's, and recap its poor handling of the intentional shutdown of sections of the grid during extreme wildfire conditions. Bozuwa notes that there are many public-owned utilities across the nation, and that decentralized energy production and distribution is growing, based on home solar and other renewable sources. You can learn more about Bozuwa and the Democracy Collaborative here. And you can read Ben Ehrenreich's article that we mention, here.
