This lecture discusses key ideas from the 19th century philosopher, essayist, and theologian, Søren Kierkegaard's review essay "The Present Age" contained in his review of Two Ages: The Age of Revolution and the Present Age

It focuses specifically on what Kierkegaard calls the "nullification of the passionate disjunction between being silent and speaking', which is "chattering".

Soren Kierkegaard The Present Age - Silence, Speaking, and Chatter - Sadler's Lectures

- Concerns- Many innocents in Gaza held as political hostages. Some returning to death and destruction. Nothing to salvage. World turning point. Scars and repercussions. End first declared in the book of Jeremiah. Prophecy is sure. First beast is already in place. It's the kingdom of the 2nd beast. Most of the world is falling apart. 
Daniel 9: 24-27 - Christ cut off is crucifixion. "And that determined" is the Jeremiah declaration of indignation.
- Daniel 11:27-38 - AC hates Israel. Trump does not. King of the South is prince of Holy Covenant. Israel. No one will have to guess who the AC is. Daniel is unsealed in the end days. AC and king of South talk. Ch. 11 expands ch. 9. Both are from the angel Gabriel. Both preclude Trump being the AC on many counts. Some fall to try them. This is His indignation and correction. God shut their eyes to distribute His power all over Earth. Eyes will open if born of the Living God or face wrath if not. AC prospers until indignation is accomplished. Trampled for forty and two months. It's declared for that appointed time. Ac won't regard the god of his fathers. Brand new god of forces. Loyalty demanded.
- Rev. 17- Beasts. Deadly wound by sword by war and lived like Germany and Iran came back. 1 beast looks like the dragon, a system. 7 heads are nations. Only our generation knows the god of force. Technology is involved. Draconian speech is speech of law, politics. 2nd beast has power to kill those that won't worship the image of the beast. 2nd beast is Satan. False prophet is AC.
- We confirm the truth by the Holy Spirit. Being bedazzled is mere entertainment. Lose conviction and be given over. 
- Listen for the phrase "Peace and safety". Pursuance of peace speaks to how close we are. Mideast is destabilization trigger. Dangerous days are here. Combat will touch all continents. Tricky warning about what is secret. Use parallels. Be in His hands. We can't prepare the world. Be as authentic as you're able. We have just enough time to get it right. (COT definition of grace) A sin is premeditated and not the same as a mistake. He gave us each other to take care of. Your calling is to represent what you know. Be an ambassador, representative, steward of Christ. Reach who you can. Always academia vs. Spirit. You are good at what you do! Pray!
- Someone can complement you, but God completes you.

🌑 Monologue: In The Dark
This is a poetic monologue that challenges everything you’ve been taught to fear about the darkness.

We are told the dark is evil, yet every pleasure we crave, every dream we chase, and every secret we whisper is born in the night. This piece argues that darkness isn't a space of danger, but one of radical honesty and unfiltered self-discovery.

When the lights go out, the masks drop. You can't pretend anymore—you can only feel.

Listen as the voice explores why we seek out the dark for our most intimate moments (making love, getting high, dreaming), only to realize that the true danger isn't the shadows, but "how much of ourselves we find when the lights go out."

Title: In the Dark Monologue

They say the darkness is dangerous.
They say the darkness is bad.
But every pleasure we crave,
Every sin we whisper,
Every dream we chase —
Is born in the dark.

When we make love,
We turn off the light.
When we get high,
We close our eyes.
When we dream,
We drift into night.

And yet they tell us —
The dark is evil.
Maybe not because of what’s in it,
But because of what it awakens.
Pleasure… desire… freedom.
Things too wild for daylight’s rules.

Maybe darkness isn’t bad.
Maybe it’s just honest.
Because in the dark,
You can’t pretend.
You can only feel.

And that’s the danger, isn’t it?
Not the dark itself…
But how much of ourselves
We find when the lights go out.

In the Dark Monologue

Out Soon

LYRICS

Je suis là, dans la nuit, à refaire mes choix,
Un sac à mes pieds, tout ce que j’ai, c’est moi.
Mon ventre me parle, un petit cœur qui bat,
Il faut partir maintenant, je n’ai plus aucun droit.

Il disait qu’il m’aimait, 
De quel amour parle t-il ! ,
Ses mots faisaient mal, plus encore que ses bras.
Je veux que mon enfant ouvre les yeux ,
Dans un monde, où la peur ne vit pas,

Je sais, c’est pas simple, je laisse tout derrière,
Mais je prends ce chemin pour briser les barrières.
Je choisis la lumière, même si elle est loin,
Je veux que mon bébé n’ait jamais besoin…

… De fuir comme moi, de pleurer la nuit,
De cacher ses rêves, de baisser les yeux aussi.
Ma route est longue, mais je dois y arriver,
Pour qu'un jour lui dire: Pour toi, j'avais pas le choix. 

C’est pas facile, j’ai peur chaque jour,
Mais mieux vaut ça qu’une illusion d'amour.
J’entends sa voix, elle crie quand j’avance,
Mais moi je sais que c’est ma dernière chance.

Je lui pardonnerai jamais tout ce qu’il a fait,
Mais je garde ma force pour ce qui va naître.
Un endroit sûr, un vrai foyer,
C’est pour ça que j'ai quitter, même si c’est dur de me relever.

Je chante pour toi, mon enfant, mon trésor,
On sera libres demain, même si c’est encore fort.
Je te promets un monde loin de ses colères,
Un monde juste à nous, plein de lumière.

Une dernière chance

Une dernière chance

“One Two” is a rebellious midnight confession dressed in rock’n’roll swagger. It’s the story of someone who doesn’t quite fit the mold — wild, free, maybe a little reckless, but alive with rhythm and soul. Between smoky highways, jukebox nights, and coffee-stained mornings, she finds herself again and again, refusing to trade chaos for calm. With a wink to the past and both feet in the now, this song celebrates the kind of freedom that only comes from dancing through the mess — and loving every minute of it.

„One Two“ ist ein rebellisches Mitternachtsgeständnis im Stil des Rock’n’Roll. Es erzählt von jemandem, der nicht ins Schema passt – wild, frei, vielleicht etwas leichtsinnig, aber voller Rhythmus und Seele. Zwischen verrauchten Highways, Jukebox-Nächten und Kaffeehausmorgenszenen findet sie sich immer wieder neu, weigert sich, Chaos gegen Ruhe einzutauschen. Mit einem Augenzwinkern in die Vergangenheit und beiden Füßen in der Gegenwart feiert der Song jene Freiheit, die nur entsteht, wenn man durch das Chaos tanzt – und jeden Moment davon liebt.

One Two

One, two
Dont‘t say I didn’t warn you

Woke up in a borrowed car
Half a tank and a hotel scar
My jacket smells like smoke and gin
Guess that’s where the night’s been

Tried callin’ my better side
He hung up — said “nice try”
Well maybe I’m not built for calm
Maybe I’m built for alarm

You say I’m reckless
I say I’m free
Who’s drivin’ who?
We’ll see

I might be trouble, but I sleep just fine
Got a head full of rhythm and a crooked line
You can roll your eyes, I won’t complain
Rock and roll’s still runnin’ through my brain

Coffee black, same diner crew
They nod — they’ve seen my kind or two
A waitress hums some old refrain
I tip too much, then miss my train

They say, grow up, get straight
Find a plan and seal your fate
But every time I almost do
That jukebox plays
And I’m brand new

I might be trouble, but I don’t care
Got the night wind tanglin’ up my hair
You can call it chaos, I call it soul
Baby, that’s still rock and roll

So yeah, you may be right
And that’s the reason I came tonight


One Two

In this reflective solo episode of Beyond The Known, host Jitesh Vaswani delves deep into one of the most challenging lessons in leadership and self-development: how to stop people-pleasing and lead with authenticity.

Through powerful insights on authentic leadership, entrepreneur mindset, and emotional resilience, Jitesh explores how constantly seeking validation weakens your vision and disconnects you from your truth. Drawing from personal experiences of doubt, rejection, and inner growth, he reveals that being disliked is not a setback. It’s a sign that you’re finally being real.

This episode serves as a mirror for anyone learning how to build self-confidence, set boundaries, and live with purpose rather than approval. It’s an honest reflection on what it means to grow, lead, and stay true, even when it’s uncomfortable.

🌿 In this episode, you’ll learn:
 • Why seeking validation keeps you from real growth
 • How to stop people pleasing and start leading with confidence
 • The link between authentic leadership and inner peace
 • How to build self-confidence rooted in self-worth, not approval
 • How to strengthen emotional resilience through criticism and challenge
 • Why every self-improvement journey begins with discomfort

The Day I Learned It’s Okay to Be Disliked

LYRICS 

Dans l’éclat du jour, une promesse éclatée,
Un lien qui brûle, jamais délié.
Je te parle d’amour, sincère et entier,
Dans chaque battement, tu es mon premier.

Je t’aime d’un amour franc et vrai,
Comme la pierre que rien ne saurait briser.
Chaque regard que tu poses sur moi,
Transforme mes doutes en foi.
Dans tes bras, le temps semble suspendu,
Un instant si pur, un univers rendu,
Dans ce voyage, tu es mon allier.

Je t’offre mon cœur, prends-le avec soin,
Sous ta lumière, il devient chemin.
Mon amour pour toi n’a ni fin ni limite,
Il vibre, il grandit, il me rend plus forte.

Même si le vent souffle loin des rivages,
Même si la nuit recouvre les images,
Je resterai là, fidèle à tes pas,
Car aimer pour moi, c’est toujours toi.

Tes rêves, je les porte comme une couronne,
Et dans mon être, ton empreinte résonne.
Chaque instant partagé est une victoire,
Un chapitre gravé dans notre histoire.

Je t’offre mon cœur, prends-le avec soin,
Sous ta lumière, il devient chemin.
Mon amour pour toi n’a ni fin ni limite,
Il vibre, il grandit, il me rend plus forte.

Alors écoute ces mots, ressens leur éclat,
Dans ce monde immense, il n’y a que toi.
Un souffle, un frisson, une infinité,
Mon amour pour toi, rien ne peut l’arrêter.

Je t'offre mon coeur

LYRICS

Sous un ciel gris, l’espoir fragile, 
Un souffle court, un cœur mobile. 
Le vent fredonne une mélodie,
Un chagrin danse dans l’infini.

Maman pleure à la fenêtre,
Papa part, ne veut plus promettre.
Une maison divisée en deux,
Le passé flou, l’avenir creux.

Dans ses rêves, ils tiennent sa main,
Sous un soleil qui revient.
Mais l’aube brise l’illusion,
Tout disparaît dans le frisson.

Pourquoi l’amour se brise parfois ?
Pourquoi le silence tombe comme ça ?
Les étoiles meurent dans le matin.
Elle espère un sourire, demain.

Deux valises, deux univers,
Un cœur perdu, un amour amer.
Elle dessine un monde meilleur,
Sur des feuilles pleines de couleurs.

Les rires s’effacent dans l’écho,
Elle cherche encore le mot.
Un pont fait d’éclats d’espoir, 
Un lien brisé dans le noir.

Pourquoi l’amour se brise parfois ?
Pourquoi le silence tombe comme ça ?
Les étoiles meurent dans le matin,
Elle espère un sourire, demain.

Chaque larme devient lumière,
Chaque cicatrice est une prière
Un jour, elle volera plus haut,
Un jour, elle brisera les maux.

Sous la pluie, elle marche doucement,
Son cœur fragile défie le vent.
Une étoile brille dans son regard,
Un nouveau jour, un nouveau départ.

Chagrin

In a male-dominated industry that often rewards polish over honesty, Amber Romando shows up with zero filters and total heart. From her beginnings as a dispatcher at UPS to becoming COO of Spartan Logistics and President of CSCMP Chicago Roundtable, Amber has carved out a career defined by grit, grace, and guts.

In this conversation with host Jenni Ruiz, Amber opens up about betting on herself before LinkedIn even existed, the mentors who changed her life, and how she learned to turn tragedy into legacy. She talks candidly about what it means to be a woman navigating conferences, boardrooms, and truck yards—and why she refuses to play small or play nice when the stakes are high.

This is a masterclass in showing up fully, leading with empathy, and staying authentic no matter who’s in the room. Whether you’re a logistics veteran or just someone trying to find your footing in a tough industry, Amber’s story will make you laugh, nod, and maybe even take a few notes.

Authenticity. Advocacy. No apologies. Amber’s got all three—and she’s using them to change the game.
