I don't think men who consume porn should be allowed on juries (for trials on sex crimes). If a woman who has been raped is "too biased" for cases involving sexual assault, then a man who gains sexual pleasure from violent, degrading, humiliating, misogynistic content that's been PROVEN to reduce empathy in men towards women who've been raped (and women in general) and leads them to believe victim blaming myths about women and sexual violence (ex. being hurt turns women on, women unconsciously want to be raped and put themselves in situations where they're likely to be hurt, rape is not that traumatizing and easy to get over, etc.) are also too biased.

Cultural Intelligence in Training: Developing Global Teams for Cross-Border Collaboration

In a world where businesses operate across borders and cultures, the ability to collaborate effectively in diverse teams is no longer optional—it's essential. Enter Cultural Intelligence (CQ), a crucial competency that enables employees to understand, respect, and adapt to cultural differences. For organisations with global operations, integrating cultural intelligence into training programs can significantly enhance cross-border collaboration and team performance.

What Is Cultural Intelligence (CQ)?

Cultural Intelligence is the capability to work and interact effectively in multicultural environments. Unlike IQ or EQ, CQ focuses specifically on understanding and navigating cultural differences. It involves four key dimensions:

CQ Drive: The motivation to learn and adapt to other cultures.

CQ Knowledge: An understanding of different cultural norms, values, and practices.

CQ Strategy: The ability to plan and adjust approaches when working in diverse cultural settings.

CQ Action: The ability to adapt behavior to fit different cultural contexts.

When employees develop CQ, they’re better equipped to overcome communication barriers, build trust, and foster collaboration in multicultural teams.

The Importance of Cultural Intelligence in Global Teams

Global teams often face challenges stemming from cultural misunderstandings, misaligned expectations, and differences in work styles. By prioritising CQ in training, organisations can address these challenges and unlock the following benefits:

1. Enhanced Communication

Cultural intelligence helps employees navigate language differences, non-verbal cues, and communication styles. This minimises misunderstandings and ensures messages are conveyed effectively.

2. Stronger Team Dynamics

Understanding cultural differences fosters empathy, reduces conflict, and promotes a sense of inclusivity, enabling teams to work cohesively despite their diversity.

3. Improved Problem-Solving

Diverse teams bring a wealth of perspectives, but leveraging this diversity requires cultural sensitivity. CQ training helps employees collaborate and think creatively to find innovative solutions.

4. Competitive Advantage

Organisations with culturally intelligent teams are better positioned to navigate global markets, build stronger client relationships, and expand their operations internationally.

How to Develop Cultural Intelligence Through Training

Building CQ requires intentional and well-designed training programs that combine theory with practical application. Effective CQ training includes:

1. Interactive Case Studies and Simulations

Participants engage in real-world scenarios that mimic cross-cultural challenges, allowing them to practice and refine their skills in a safe environment.

2. Workshops on Cultural Awareness

Sessions focused on understanding cultural norms, communication styles, and workplace behaviors across different regions.

3. Role-Playing Activities

Employees take on roles in cross-cultural scenarios to practice adapting their behavior and communication.

4. Feedback and Reflection

Post-training feedback and self-reflection exercises help participants assess their progress and identify areas for improvement.

How MDA Training Helps Develop Cultural Intelligence

At MDA Training, we understand the complexities of global collaboration and offer tailored solutions to help organisations build culturally intelligent teams. Our programs are designed to:

Combine interactive simulations with practical tools, ensuring employees can apply their learning immediately.

Address specific challenges your organisation faces in cross-border operations.

More Kids Are Remembering Their Past Lives

Kids remembering their past lives isn’t a surprise to my clients or to me. We are, after all, eternal beings with tremendous potential. We even enjoy the potential to recall our past lives as easily as we recall dreams.

But when a client recently shared an example of a young boy remembering being here before, it had me write this post. That’s because the more such stories we hear, the more likely we might try tapping into our own power to perceive what we really are.

There’s a reason more young people are coming in clearer. It’s the same reason so many kids are coming into the world as transgender. We’re going to look at this alongside why it is so many of us don’t remember our past lives. Not remembering our past lives should be the rarity. Not kids remembering being here before.

So why is the opposite true? Why is it so rare for people to remember their past lives? And what’s causing more kids to remember being here before?

Let’s take a look.

Giving up our deeper awareness

The reason nearly all of us don’t remember our past lives is because it’s just not that important to us. Or so we think. 

Past life memories, like dreams, can provide a LOT of value. They can, for example, explain why certain things seem to happen over and over in this life. Past life memories can also help us understand why we must work through certain things we are working through in this life.

Of course, such memories, again, like dreams, can help us realize we’re eternal; that there’s more to life than this one life. And finally, past life memories can help free us from the fear of death.

Freeing ourselves from the fear of death is HUGE.

Nearly all of us, however, are talked out of the awareness of such an expanded consciousness early on. That’s right, we all have such an expanded consciousness when we first get here. As children, we’re deeply connected to the place from where we came.

But in short order, the intensity of life experience — physical reality — is so intense it demands our full attention. Physical reality can be all-encompassing and drive our focus away from our connections to nonphysical, the Source of us all, and the experience making physical life possible.

Parents, peers and teachers also talk us out of our connections. We’re told to wise up, grow up, be realistic and stop day dreaming. Such admonitions cause us to trade that broader awareness for a more focused one. One focused on this time-space reality. And so we give up our deeper awareness.

The ego gets in on it too

The ego is another factor allowing either awareness of our past life experiences…or the lack thereof. 

Many new age gurus claim subduing or killing off the ego is key to awakening. But the ego is an extremely important function. That’s right, it IS a FUNCTION, a process going on in our consciousness. The ego is not us. It is, again, a function or process. This function’s function is to create the illusion of duality. It helps us distinguish ourselves from our surroundings and other people. Otherwise, we would only experience the non-duality behind the illusion of objective reality.

If this sounds preposterous, I recommend watching the Netflix documentary “How to Change Your Mind”. In it a noted journalist goes on an adventure. He decides to try all kinds of psychedelic substances, beginning with tobacco, but also LSD, Shrooms and MDA among others. The documentary also features people participating in trials hoping these substances have lasting and profound therapeutic benefits (they do).

Each test subject, when recounting their experience with the psychedelic they take, tells of extreme states of bliss they experience inside this oneness state I described above. This non-dual state is real. Psychedelics temporarily allow perception beyond the ego, which allows one to experience this oneness directly. It’s a profoundly blissful experience. But we’re not here to experience it so directly. Thus the ego’s function.

The feeling of deep connection

That ego function is “softer” in early childhood, which explains why children have “imaginary” friends, dream more, play more and are so much more care free. Such friends may be imaginary to adults. Adults may not appreciate their child playing and being care free. But those experiences are supposed to be there. They can be maintained too, throughout life. And maintaining such experiences makes life joyful and care free.

But, as I said, we’re often talked out of this state. That’s too bad. Because life lived from there can be so fun! Not to worry though, we eventually return to that state after we transition. And for many, that happens before they transition.

Many elderly people, as they approach the time of their transition, often talk about seeing family members and other beings comforting them in their transition process. A recent New York Times article tells of hundreds of such people seeing into nonphysical. Some research shows that some 80 percent of people experience such states.

So this state of being isn’t unusual. Most of us lose conscious connection with this state early on. And that’s why so few of us in our adult years enjoy the joy youngsters’ enjoy. Which brings me to the example my client shared.

Children remembering

The example comes from a Reddit thread. The thread features a tweet from a woman talking about something extraordinary about her child, who is six:

^^The first person mentioning a conversation had with their child.

As you can see it got a lot of engagement. But in the Reddit thread someone posted her own experience with her son, who is four. This young person talks about how he was here before as a father. Then he finds himself back here again, seemingly that being something he didn’t want:

^^The reply adding another anecdote to the conversation.

The thing is, we all experience similar things early on. But, again, we give them up as our ego kicks in, in full. With practice though, a person can, in their adult years, redevelop the ability to perceive things such as past lives and other experiences in nonphysical such as dreams.

Later in the Positively Focused Way, dreamwork and meditation, two potent ways to consciously reconnect with our origins, are included in the practice. Both are simple processes, but putting them into practice isn’t easy. Which is why I work with clients weekly.

In time, though, rediscovering the wonder of past lives and nonphysical experiences surfaces. And those experiences can greatly influence our physical, waking lives.

Why are they remembering now?

So why are kids coming into the world remembering past lives? Is there something afoot here? Something that wasn’t happening before?

I think there is. I believe the human experience is expanding through a great leap. We’ve had such leaps before. This one is prompting us to cast away our old limiting beliefs. And as we wrestle with the expansion in the physical, some beings incarnate with their connections in tact, then use those connections to inspire others.

That’s what’s happening with these two kids. It’s the same thing happening with transgender kids. All this is the divine unfolding of humanity moving forward and it’s a great thing. Our kids are not here for us to teach them. They’re here to teach us, to help us remember what we are.

I’m eager for more of these kinds of things happening. They foretell an exciting future. One where our past life recollections may be as easy to recall as our last meal or our last date with a loved one. And when more people can remember their past lives, I won’t be surprised when our entire civilization suddenly changes because of it.

Or maybe I will be.

Atiku and Sani challenge legislators and urge them to reduce allowances

Shehu Sani, a former senator from Kaduna Central, claimed that the House of Representatives' office operating expenses, not their pay, are the "real devil." Sani said this while praising the House of Representatives for reducing members' pay. Sani posted on the X Platform saying “The Reps slashed their salaries.That is a good symbolic gesture.I commend them.But the real Devil is the Office running cost and not the Salary.” In a comparable manner, Atiku Abubakar, the presidential candidate for the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in 2023, compared the legislators' "sacrifice" to a drop in the ocean. According to Atiku, the legislators' allowances, not their pay, are the devils' domain. He made a post on X: “The sacrifice of members of the House of Representatives is commendable. But it is a drop in the ocean. The demons are in the allowances and not the salaries of lawmakers and government officials in general. “Whatever happened to the much-trumpeted implementation of the Oronsaye Report? Recently, the ballooning of MDAs with the attendant cost implications has been observed. “There’s too much waste and prioritisation of non-essential expenditures. What is desirable is an across the board cut in expenses. We can no longer afford to borrow money to fund continued irresponsibility in government.” Read the full article

By • Olalekan Fagbade How former Governor employed JSS Students Into Civil Service when he was in office The Kano State government has indicted the immediate past governor of the state, Abdullahi Ganduje, alleging that his administration employed unqualified persons, including Junior Secondary Schools (JSS) Students, into the state Civil Service. According to The Daily Trust, the current administration in the state had since suspended the salaries of some civil servants in the state and also set up a committee to screen and verify employment conducted by the immediate past administration. Addressing reporters on Friday, Abudullahi Baffa Bichi, Secretary to the State Government (SSG), said the committee found out that the last administration undertook mass employment without recourse to necessary guidelines and service regulation. He added the committee recommended the dismissal of unqualified persons, who were over 3,000. “The verification committee report was received by the Government and its salient observations and recommendations were noted and accepted. The majority of the employment was not captured in the 2023 Approved Budget and a significant percentage of those employed had neither applied nor indicated interest to serve which form a major aspect of employment requirement.” “Most of those employed did not undergo processes of screening and recruitment interviews as expected by the service regulations; employed were found to have suspicious or forged certificates, while many non-indigenes were employed in spite of a large number of qualified unemployed indigenes roaming. “The employment did not take into consideration the actual manpower needs of the respective MDAs but was influenced by the desire to tie down the new Administration financially; our streets and those employed were wrongly placed through deployment to non-career posts or the calling of their respective qualifications. “There was gross underemployment where officers with higher qualifications attracting senior cadres were employed on the junior cadre of the service contrary to the needs of the MDAs and approval granted for such employment. “A number of students in their active study years were also found to be employed, including students of junior secondary schools, senior secondary schools and some in their early stages of tertiary education; a number of persons recruited were found to be undergoing their National Service Program (NYSC) while a number of people confirmed to be overaged or under-aged were found to be employed and on the State payroll,” Bichi said.

Week 5 Reality TV Case Study

TLC (the cable channel), not so TLC (tender loving care)

I’m pretty sure everyone knows where that GIF came from. But if you do not, then well, it came from a reality TV show called ’90 Day Fiancé’, a show where non-US citizens are granted K1 visas that will allow them to travel to the US for 90 days to marry their American fiancé which meant they are eligible to get green cards to become US citizens or risk getting deported. Oops, that sounds a little dramatic, but then again that’s what reality television is all about. Now, what is the definition of reality television?

From the slides and modules, I read, I concluded that reality television is a wide genre consisting of games, talent contests, docusoaps, court programs, reality sitcoms, celebrity-based programs, and the star of today’s topic *DRUMROLLS*, dating programs. Reality TV is a program where it shows ordinary people engaging in unscripted (but sometimes it is scripted to add more fuel to the fire) action and interaction.

Surveys have shown that reality TV is the least favourite entertainment genre, but then again why is it extremely popular? I never watched reality TV until I stumbled upon this Youtuber named ‘sixteenleo’ where he does commentaries on reality TV shows like ‘90 Day Fiancé’ and their spinoffs such as ’90 Day Fiancé: Before the 90 Days’, ’90 Day Fiancé: The Other Way Around’ and ’90 Day Fiancé: Happily Ever After’.

All of them have 1 thing in common (besides making their audiences extremely uncomfortable) is that they helped boost the cast’s popularity and they end up making a name for themselves. Take 90 Day Fiancé’s star, Rosemarie Vega, for example. She became a successful Youtuber, an Instagram influencer doing paid collaboration posts, running a dry grocery store in her hometown and also earning money via Cameo. She did not have this opportunity before as she was living in poverty, but once she appeared on the show and became viral, she took that opportunity and made a living to help support her family and herself.

This shows that reality TV opens up new markets and audiences through social media. It’s multiplatform engagement helps diversify markets and audience participation hence increasing opportunities for reality stars and fans to interact with each other through social media such as cameo and Instagram. Remember how I said that the show ’90 Day Fiancé’ made their audiences extremely uncomfortable? Well, this is the work of television networks, by making the reality stars do or say things that are either scandalous or insensitive to the camera or their co-stars for attention, salary, and status.

This type of new industry strategy seeks to cut costs while increasing viewer engagement. Reality producers often manipulate the reality TV stars through contracts, pitting reality TV stars against each other, and of course the promise of fame. For these reality TV stars to remain in the spotlight or get more screen time, they are encouraged to spill out the most intimate details about their lives on camera to keep the audience at home hooked on, therefore making ‘good TV’.

In conclusion, bad press is good press.

Does pressure trigger Infertility Or Does Infertility Lead To improved tension?

Regrettably, numerous women encounter extreme stress when attempting to get pregnant but failing to do so soon after only a couple of months. The other theory includes examining how tension causes intimacy difficulties in a connection or marriage. Couples facing a series of stressful situations have a tendency to be exhausted, preoccupied, and significantly less interested in intimacy, which naturally reduces the opportunity of a woman becoming pregnant. You might be shocked to find out just how significantly of an impact anxiety has on a woman and their capacity to get pregnant. Psychosocial strain reactivity is linked with decreased whole brain network efficiency and improved amygdala centrality.

Psychobiologic views on pressure-associated oral ulcers. Equivalent to the question of which came first “the chicken or the egg”, this question prompts evaluation of the directional relationship involving infertility and anxiety. If a lady tries to conceive but fails to do so in less than six months, does the added pressure of worrying about fertilityactually result in infertility? The clinical definition of infertility states that a woman is not thought of infertile till she has tried to get pregnant through sexual intercourse for at least 12 months. This question is for testing no matter if or not you are a human visitor and to prevent automated spam submissions. I would be interested to see the outcomes of the bigger study they are carrying out, along with a comparison to a manage group of ladies who are not attempting to conceive.

"Females, and the praise for Females, is the product of a school of feminism now dominant in academia that has abandoned interest in the material aspects of women’s lives and has instead embraced confection and self-obsession. This form of feminism is far more interested in the supposedly liberating power of lipgloss and orgasms than in the difficult business of incrementally improving the lot of women and girls. When a porn-obsessed writer can be lauded as a feminist prophet for describing the “barest essentials” of “femaleness” as “an open mouth, an expectant asshole, blank, blank eyes” we should wonder how on earth we got to this point. Chu’s writing may be funny, engaging and thought-provoking, but this is not a feminist book in any meaningful sense of the term. This troubled and talented writer is in need of a hard-nosed editor and a cold shower."

“You see, Chu credits Solanas with persuading her not only that she is a woman but also that she is a lesbian. “Valerie can sound like a dominatrix,” she remarks, before confessing self-pityingly: “I find Valerie extremely attractive which probably means she never would have agreed to sleep with me.” Describing a pornographic video featuring lines from SCUM Manifesto, Chu is instantly enthralled: “This made instant, perfect sense.” Throughout the book Solanas is presented, not as a traumatised woman driven to violence, but as a bit-player in a masochistic fantasy. Chu is quite open about the fact that her interest in Solanas is, to put it bluntly, a sex thing.”
