Trauma Talks : With Russ Tellup rtellup Hi, I’m Russ Tellup, a Trauma-Informed Somatic Coach and Level 1 Brainspotting practitioner. In my podcast "Trauma Talks," I dive into the neuroscience of trauma, exploring somatic healing practices, Polyvagal Theory, and IFS (Internal Family Systems) parts work. I also occasionally address the complexities of narcissistic abuse, offering insights and tools for healing. Join me each week as we navigate the journey of recovery, resilience, and self-discovery together. Practicing Stoicism Tanner Campbell Practicing Stoicism is the bridge between Stoic theory and the pavement. Hosted by public philosopher Tanner Campbell (Host of Practical Stoicism, Co-Author of "What is Stoicism?"), this podcast is designed for those who are tired of "pop-Stoicism" and ready for intellectual honesty and practical application. Milkshakes Markets Madness | Brent Johnson Brent Johnson The Dollar Milkshake Theory, an idea created by Brent Johnson of Santiago Capital to explain the role of the U.S. Dollar in the global monetary system, is a reference to the infamous milkshake scene in the movie “There Will Be Blood”.The goal of the show is to help simplify complex economic ideas, like the Dollar Milkshake Theory, and to bring some much needed perspective to the madness of financial markets, without the hype or drama.
