What if the next level of your leadership isn't about learning more but aligning more? In this conversation with Grace Najean, we explore how high achievers can move from stress-driven success to effortless, purpose-anchored leadership. As a former concert pianist turned corporate strategist and master coach with Tony Robbins, Grace brings a rare left-brain/right-brain lens to leadership. In our talk, we unpack her “vessel, compass, and light” model—body, mind, and consciousness—and why knowledge alone rarely transforms a leader. We also name the pattern many of us feel but seldom admit: “achievement fatigue.” Grace offers simple, practical practices and a dimensional view of leadership.  If you're ready to trade pressure for presence, this episode will meet you where you are and invite you to lead from alignment. Here are some highlights: • From knowledge to integration: Shift from simply collecting information to truly integrating it by aligning your body (energy/resilience), mind (clarity/emotional intelligence), and consciousness (presence/intuition), so leadership transforms rather than just informs. • Naming “achievement fatigue”: Recognize the often-hidden cost of success—feeling drained despite appearing successful—and gain the language and awareness to identify the blind spots that high achievers often overlook. • A practical reset you'll actually use: Implement simple yet effective practices, such as coherent breathing (inhale for 5, exhale for 5), a 50-to-1 countdown for focus, and a morning visualization of 2–3 outcomes, to shift your day from reactive to intentional. • The 3D→4D→5D leadership framework: Progress from 3D (survival/reactive) to 4D (awakening/self-aware) to 5D (visionary/aligned), realizing that true leadership comes not from more strategy, but from changing the dimension in which you operate. • Retreat as a catalyst for alignment: Discover why immersive environments, like Grace's 7-day retreat in Lombok, are key to accelerating transformation, using vocal empowerment and energy work to help leaders align their mind, body, and purpose. About the guest: Grace's professional and personal journey embodies the fusion of creativity, strategy, and soulful leadership. Starting as a professional pianist in her youth, she cultivated discipline and artistic expression that remain integral to her leadership approach. Transitioning into corporate roles, Grace spent over a decade excelling in strategy and business development before stepping into her calling as a leadership coach. Her eight years as a Platinum Tony Robbins Coach and over 4,500 hours of coaching have empowered her to transform high-performing leaders around the globe. Through these experiences, she developed The Soulfluence© , a framework that harmonizes Body, Mind, and Consciousness for authentic and impactful leadership.

10/12/2025 Rev. Mike Park Proverbs: 14:30; 23:17-18; 24:19-20; 27:4 30 A tranquil heart gives life to the flesh,     but envy makes the bones rot. 17 Let not your heart envy sinners,     but continue in the fear of the Lord all the day. 18 Surely there is a future,     and your hope will not be cut off. 19 Fret not yourself because of evildoers,     and be not envious of the wicked, 20 for the evil man has no future;     the lamp of the wicked will be put out. 4 Wrath is cruel, anger is overwhelming,     but who can stand before jealousy?  

Hey, Heal Squad! In this week's Lonely Guy Friday, Kev is tackling one of the most powerful (and damaging) forces we all face, shame. He breaks down why shame is one of the most widespread emotional ailments in our society, how it quietly shapes our choices and relationships, and why the belief that “shame keeps us accountable” can actually keep us stuck in pain. Kev shares how unhealed shame can lead to isolation, self-sabotage, and even physical illness, and how breaking that cycle starts with one essential (but often uncomfortable) step: self-compassion. You'll also hear how joy can become one of the most effective healing tools for releasing shame, and a beautiful reflection on what it means to be an emotional surrogate, and why that sensitivity might actually be your gift, not your burden. And for a little RGF bonus? Kev shares the wild, true story of Grizzly Adams and actor Dan Haggerty, a reminder that even in the wilderness, there's always room for redemption and heart. -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy's Page: Shop My Macy's Storefront Prenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 off EMR-Tek Red Light: https://emr-tek.com/discount/Maria30 for 30% off Airbnb: https://www.airbnb.com/  Briotech: https://shopbriotech.com/ Use Code: HEALSQUAD for 20% off  Join In-Person Heal Retreat Waitlist! https://mariamenounos.myflodesk.com/heal-retreat-waitlist ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos' passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.

In this episode of Shrink for the Shy Guy, Dr. Aziz reveals the surprising antidote to anxiety—and it's not a breathing trick, mindset hack, or self-soothing technique. It's something much deeper, much more powerful... and much more liberating. If you've ever struggled with social anxiety, performance anxiety, or general fear about future events—this episode is for you. Dr. Aziz breaks down what actually creates anxiety (hint: it's not the situation itself) and why so many well-meaning efforts to manage or eliminate anxiety fail. You'll discover how attachment to specific outcomes fuels fear, and how opening to all outcomes can set you free. Packed with stories, metaphors, and practical insights, this conversation invites you to stop clinging, start choosing, and reclaim your peace and personal power.

Shame has a way of whispering lies that drown out truth. For today's girls, those lies are amplified by comparison, perfectionism, and a culture that magnifies flaws instead of celebrating God's design. Left unchecked, shame doesn't just shape how our daughters see themselves—it can entangle whole families in cycles of silence, generational sin, and negative self-talk. But as followers of Christ, we know shame doesn't get the last word.  In this episode of the Raising Godly Girls Podcast, co-hosts Rachael Culpepper and Melissa Bearden step into one of the hardest yet most necessary conversations for parents: how to help our daughters battle shame with grace and truth. With vulnerability, Melissa shares how childhood trauma left her searching for comfort in all the wrong places—and how God's faithful love brought freedom where shame once ruled. Rachael opens up about the weight of generational patterns and the importance of showing our girls that Christ's redemption runs deeper than family history.  Together, they explore why negative self-talk is so powerful, how inherited shame can quietly shape a girl's identity, and what it means for parents to model speaking God's truth over their own lives. This episode also offers practical tools—from “lie detector” check-ins to truth journals and worship playlists—that help girls replace the “not enough” lies with the promises of Scripture. And woven throughout is the unshakable hope that God rebuilds what shame has broken, turning burdens into blessings for generations to come.  This Week's Reminders:  Truth is the Antidote to Shame — Help your daughter identify lies and replace them with God's Word.  You're Her Coach, Not Her Constant Companion — Equip her with tools, but let her practice walking in truth on her own.  God Redeems Family Stories — Generational shame doesn't define her future—Christ does.  Scripture Referenced in This Episode:  2 Timothy 1:7  Daniel 3  Romans 8:1  Isaiah 61:3 (beauty for ashes)  Ecclesiastes 1:9 (“nothing new under the sun”)  Moms, you'll walk away from this episode encouraged not to fear these conversations, but to step into them with honesty, authenticity, and faith. Because when we teach our daughters to name shame and answer it with truth, we give them the confidence to live free in Christ.  Explore more resources to raise girls rooted in Christ at raisinggodlygirls.com.  To find or start an AHG Troop in your area, visit americanheritagegirls.org. 

Welcome to the sermon. Today we're in Exodus 3 & 4, exploring one of life's most foundational questions: "Who am I?" Through Moses's encounter at the burning bush, we'll confront the shame and insecurity that so often writes our life's story. We'll see how God's answer to our feelings of inadequacy is profoundly different from the world's, shifting our focus from our weakness to His powerful presence.Scripture ReferencesExodus 3:1-14: The Burning Bush, God's call, and Moses's first question, "Who am I?"Exodus 4:1-17: Moses's excuses, God's provision of signs, and His promise of help.Key Points1. Unredeemed Shame Writes Our StoryOur behavior is rooted in what we believe about ourselves. While guilt says "I did something bad," shame says "I am bad." If this shame isn't redeemed, it becomes the author of our story, creating vows that dictate our actions. Moses was crippled by shame: he felt he belonged nowhere, was a failure rejected by everyone, was too old, and was disabled by a speech impediment. His shame was about to make him miss his destiny.2. The World's Answer vs. God's AnswerHow does God respond to Moses's crippling insecurity? Our culture—and even AI—advises self-reflection, validation, and positive reinforcement. The goal is self-love. God's approach is completely different. When Moses asks, "Who am I?", God doesn't list Moses's qualifications or tell him "You've got this." Instead, He gives a radically different answer that changes the entire equation: "I will be with you."3. God's Presence is the Antidote to PrideGod's answer isn't a non-answer; it's the only answer. Focusing on ourselves leads to one of two places: pride ("I am adequate") or insecurity ("I am inadequate"). Both are forms of pride because they are self-obsessed. The way out is to stop looking inward, which leads to depression, and to look at God, which leads to rest. God's presence, not our adequacy, is the foundation for our calling.ConclusionGod's promise, "I will be with you," is the definitive answer to our deepest insecurities. He doesn't call the adequate; He makes Himself present to the inadequate. Even God's anger at Moses's final excuse was the protective love of a Father, angry for him, not wanting him to miss his destiny. God wants to take the pen from the hand of your shame and become the true Author of your story.Calls to ActionIdentify the Script: Recognize where shame, rather than God's truth, is writing the script for your life.Shift Your Focus: When you feel inadequate, intentionally shift your question from "Who am I?" to "Who is the God that is with me?"Rest in His Presence: Stop striving to become adequate. Instead, receive the promise that He is with you as your all-sufficient help. Support the show*Summaries and transcripts are generated using AI. Please notify us if you find any errors.

Shoot us a Text.Today, Chris Reeves joins Paul and Kyle to share how the Jeff Wyler Auto Group gave away a car to a homeless veteran.The Jeff Wyler Automotive Family rolled out the red carpet for 34-year-old veteran Theron Bell, surprising him with a brand-new 2023 Nissan Frontier Pro 4X Edition. Bell, who served in Afghanistan from 2011–2012 and lives with PTSD, had no reliable transportation before Friday.Chosen from five candidates, Bell was stunned: “I feel like I'm in Hollywood. I feel like I'm dreaming. Like it's The Price Is Right.”The Frontier came loaded — lifted wheels, roof racks, even a tent kit — plus three years of paid maintenance, one year of insurance, and a full year of fuel. The gift was co-sponsored by Kentucky Wounded Heroes, continuing a Wyler tradition that began two years ago when another veteran received a Toyota 4Runner.Bell's message back to veterans: “Never give up. If you don't quit, you'll make it.”Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

Our one true source of hope is the God of Hope. He fills us super-abundantly, through the agent of the Holy Spirit, with the joy and peace that come from Him for our activity of amening.

In this episode of The Puck, Jim Baer sits down with acclaimed author and journalist Oliver Burkeman, whose books Four Thousand Weeks and The Antidote have reshaped how we think about time, productivity, and perfectionism. Oliver introduces ideas from his forthcoming book Meditations for Mortals, exploring how embracing our human limitations—rather than denying them—opens the path to deeper meaning and accomplishment. From the illusion of “getting on top of everything,” to the paradox of slowing down in a productivity-obsessed culture, Oliver offers insights drawn from philosophy, spirituality, and his own journey. Together, Jim and Oliver reflect on mortality, imperfectionism, and how practices like patience, Sabbath rest, and journaling can help us live saner, more fulfilling lives.

Hey friends, Chase here. I'm writing you today from the south of France, where I've been taking a little breather before a busy fall. This episode is a reflection on some of the most popular questions that came up around the launch of Never Play It Safe. In the particular lies the universal — and the questions from our community reflect challenges so many of us face. Burnout, Side Hustles & Tiny Experiments Matt asked about starting a coaching/consulting side hustle. My answer? Don't try to solve everything from the couch. Start small. Run tiny experiments. Serve people by solving the problems you've already solved for yourself. From there, Dylan jumped in with a question about making a film project with a comedian friend. We dug into what it means to treat creative collaborations like real businesses — agreements, responsibilities, financing, and the all-important element of play. Here's what we get into in the episode: Side hustles that stick: why solving your own past problems makes you a better coach or consultant Tiny experiments: the fastest way to test ideas and get real data instead of planning forever Collaboration as play: how operating agreements and clear roles keep partnerships fun instead of frustrating Burnout recovery: why rediscovering play is the antidote to grazing through work like a cow instead of hunting like a lion The big idea? The best way forward isn't overthinking — it's showing up, experimenting, and rediscovering play in the process. Until next time—stay playful, stay curious, and keep creating.

On the final day of Moshe's life, he conveys the Song of Haazinu to the nation. In this masterful prophetic Song, the Torah overviews Jewish history, past, present, future, and Messiah. In this penultimate parsha podcast we focus on what happens afterwards. After the Song, Moshe shares a few pithy words about the nature of Torah. As we near the end of this cycle of Torah and prepare to embark on another, it is helpful and useful to hear how Moshe defines Torah. The lessons will forever transform our understanding.– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –DONATE: Please consider supporting the podcasts by making a donation to help fund our Jewish outreach and educational efforts at https://www.torchweb.org/support.php.

What if connection really is the antidote to a world that feels divided — for us and for the next generation?In today's episode, I'm inviting you into a real and unfiltered conversation (recorded right from my car) about what it means to choose connection in a world that seems designed to pull us apart. From family gatherings over the Jewish New Year, to my own shifts with technology, to a story from my travels in France — this episode is all about the simple, everyday ways we can reclaim presence and pass it forward to the kids and teens in our lives.Here's what I share with you:Why reflection doesn't have to be judgmental, and how I set intentions for what I want more of.A powerful reel from Jonathan Haidt that reframed the way I see kids and devices.My personal journey of breaking free from letting my phone hijack my mornings.The choice we all have between looking for darkness or looking for light.How attempting to speak French opened unexpected doors of connection while traveling.Why modeling connection matters so much for the next generation — and how we can do it daily.And of course, I'll talk about The Connection Book, my newest release, which is designed to spark real, soul-filling conversations between kids and the grown-ups who love them. Because connection isn't just for us — it's the gift we hand down to the next gen.

Did podcasting only succeed because it was a break from video? Today, we dissect podcaster Rachel Corbett's claim and consider whether audio was truly an 'antidote' to visual media. Our conversation ranges from debating the evolution of podcasting, the guilt of binge-watching YouTube, and the accountability of podcasters for past statements. We also discuss how powerful listeners have become in shaping podcast content.

Many of us feel under constant pressure to optimise every moment, to become more efficient, more productive and somehow more worthy. But what if embracing our limits could be the key to living a calmer, more meaningful life? This week's returning guest on my Feel Better, Live More podcast, Oliver Burkeman, believes that accepting that we can't do everything might just set us free. Oliver is the author of the Sunday Times bestselling ‘Four Thousand Weeks' and ‘The Antidote', and for many years wrote a popular weekly column on psychology for the Guardian. His work has also appeared in the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Psychologies and New Philosopher. His latest book, ‘Meditations for Mortals: A Four Week Guide to Doing What Counts', takes us on a liberating journey towards a more meaningful life – one that begins not with fantasies of the ideal existence, but with the reality in which we actually find ourselves. Designed as a four-week ‘retreat of the mind', it offers daily wisdom, solace and inspiration to aid a saner, freer and more enchantment-filled way of living. In our brilliant conversation, we discuss: Why the belief that life will finally feel easier once we clear our to-do list is such a persistent illusion How shifting our focus from endless achievement to small, present moments can transform the way we experience each day Why the fantasy of perfect decisions keeps us stuck in indecision, and how accepting the downsides of any choice can set us free How our fear of wasting time is often rooted in perfectionism, and why many of us feel we have to earn our worth through effort The liberating idea of daily-ish habits – a flexible, compassionate way to keep showing up without turning routines into self-criticism Why we don't need to wait for life to feel calm or under control before we start living with more intention How embracing our limits and accepting that time is finite can help us feel more fully alive and connected I was delighted to have the opportunity to speak to Oliver again as he brings such clarity and compassion to questions so many of us grapple with.

As the prize-winning author of Dreamland and The Least of Us, Sam Quinones is one of the most acclaimed authorities on America's deadly drug epidemics. So it might seem a little surprising that his follow-up to these two best-sellers is a book in praise of the bass horn, a relatively unglamorous musical instrument that he neither plays nor learned in marching band. But it all makes perfect sense. In The Perfect Tuba, Quinones resurrects the American Dream in the form of the bass horn (tuba) which he describes as the “tuba civil rights movement”. It's the story of how to forge fulfillment from the bass horn, high school band and hard work. This isn't just Quinones' journey. It's a map of how America can get from fentanyl to fulfillment. 1. You Don't Find Your Passion—You Forge It Through Hard Work Quinones discovered that fulfillment doesn't come from finding something you're naturally drawn to, but from working so hard at something that you become good enough to love doing it. This creates a cycle where competence breeds passion, leading to deeper engagement and growth.2. Band Teaches What Sports Can't: True Community Values While athletics get the glory, band programs create lasting life skills. In schools with 66% dropout rates, band students had 100% graduation rates. Twenty years later, former band members showed strong family and professional lives because band teaches accountability, precision, collaboration, and finding joy in small accomplishments.3. The "Tuba Civil Rights Movement" Challenges Low Expectations Tuba players have fought against being seen as limited—both the instrument and the people who play it. This mirrors broader social justice themes: when we expect little from people or communities (like Roma, Texas), we waste hidden talent that just needs proper cultivation and support.4. Hard Work Is the Antidote to America's Addiction Economy Quinones sees tuba players as the opposite of addicts. Instead of seeking happiness through consumption (buying something external), they find fulfillment through creation (developing internal capabilities). This offers a model for moving from quick dopamine hits to sustained contentment.5. Democracy Requires Orchestral Thinking, Not Solo Performance Real democracy sounds like a band—people with different roles working toward shared goals, not wanting to let others down, and being accountable for their part. The collaborative discipline learned in music programs teaches essential democratic values that social media and individual achievement culture are eroding.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

The Antidote for Sin 9-21-25 Msgr. Knox

Rumination on the past and anxiety about the future are both forms of repetitive negative thinking that can significantly increase stress and contribute to mental health issues like depression and anxiety. While they are distinct processes, they often feed into each other, creating a cycle of distress.Rumination is the process of excessively dwelling on negative thoughts and feelings about past events. It's like replaying a distressing movie scene over and over in your mind, without ever reaching a resolution. This form of thinking focuses on "what went wrong," "what I should have said," or "why did that happen?" instead of productive problem-solving. It's often associated with feelings of guilt, shame, regret, and helplessness. For example, after an awkward social interaction, a person might ruminate on their every word and action, critiquing themselves long after the event has passed. This constant self-criticism intensifies negative emotions and can prevent individuals from moving forward.Anxiety about the future is characterized by excessive worry about what might happen. It's often referred to as "anticipatory anxiety," where you're constantly imagining and preparing for potential threats or negative outcomes. This type of thinking focuses on "what if" scenarios, such as "what if I fail my exam?" or "what if I lose my job?" This constant state of alert keeps the body in a prolonged "fight or flight" response, leading to physical symptoms like a racing heart, muscle tension, and difficulty sleeping. It is driven by an intolerance of uncertainty, the inability to accept that you can't control every possible outcome.Both rumination and future anxiety can become self-perpetuating cycles. Rumination on a past failure can increase your anxiety about facing a similar situation in the future, and anxiety about a future event can lead to rumination on the potential negative outcomes. To break this cycle, it's crucial to shift your focus from unproductive thinking to the present moment.Effective strategies include:Mindfulness: Practices like meditation and deep breathing help anchor you in the present, reducing the power of thoughts about the past or future.Cognitive Restructuring: Challenge your negative thought patterns by asking if there's evidence to support them. Replace "what if I fail?" with more balanced statements, such as "I'm prepared, and I'll do my best."Scheduled "Worry Time": Instead of letting worry consume your day, set aside a specific, short period (e.g., 15 minutes) to address your concerns. If a worrying thought arises outside this time, gently remind yourself to deal with it during your scheduled session.Actionable Plans: If a concern is within your control, create a step-by-step plan to address it. For example, if you're worried about an exam, create a study schedule. Taking action can reduce the sense of helplessness that often fuels rumination and anxiety.Physical Activity: Exercise is a powerful tool for interrupting negative thought loops and releasing built-up stress. A walk in nature, in particular, has been shown to reduce rumination and quiet the part of the brain associated with self-focused, negative thinking. let's initiate a plan-If a concern is within your control, create a step-by-step plan to address it. For example, if you're worried about an exam, create a study schedule. Taking action can reduce the sense of helplessness that often fuels rumination and anxiety. Greetings, Grandpa Bill!

The destructive capacity of nonstop busyness rivals nuclear weapons and is as addictive as opium. It empties the life of the spirit. False heroes find it easier to make war than deal with the emptiness in their souls.” “There is a lot of suffering right here, right now, but it is still our responsibility to be able to see the beauty in life, to see the joy and to cultivate happiness: the little things that can spark our creativity, our foundation of love. We are not limited by suffering. We contain the potential for so many offerings that we can give to ourselves and to the world.” “When in chaos, come back to the fundamentals of the things that gave you joy and that gave you life.” “The First Remembrance is that we are all of the nature to grow old; none of us can escape growing old. The Second Remembrance is we are all of the nature to get ill; none can escape that. The Third Remembrance is that all of us have to die; none of us can escape death. The Fourth Remembrance is that everything that we cherish today is of the nature of impermanence; we will have to learn to let go. And the Fifth Remembrance is the way forward; it gives us an insight into continuation. And that is our truest belonging: our legacies.” “Karma means action. And that action is the thought that we produce every day, the words that we speak every day, and how we behave in our way of being: the way we show up, the way we open a door, the way we tend to someone, the way we care for our loved ones or the environment. They are all our truest belongings that will be transmitted and will, in a way, be passed down from generation to generation.” “Everything that exists in this moment is of the nature of impermanence. Nothing can stay the same.” “No mud, no lotus.”

“Fear might look like control, but it's actually a counterfeit that limits creativity, burns people out, and keeps us small.”In this episode of Business is Human, Rebecca Fleetwood Hession exposes how fear shows up in today's workplace and why it's sabotaging both people and performance. Rebecca explains why the antidote to fear isn't waiting for organizations to change, but cultivating self-respect. She shares five pillars of self-respect: identity, boundaries, alignment, humility, and abundance. These pillars show how each one counters the counterfeit beliefs that fear plants in our work and lives. In this episode, you'll learn:Why fear-based leadership looks powerful but actually undermines productivity and creativityHow self-respect stabilizes your nervous system and unlocks innovation, clarity, and collaborationThe five pillars of self-respect and how they counter fear in practical, everyday waysThings to listen for:(00:00) Intro(00:43) The antidote for fear in the workplace(03:24) The science behind fear and productivity(06:36) Defining self-respect(10:22) The five pillars of self-respect(10:46) Identity and boundaries(11:34) Alignment and humility(12:34) Abundance and overcoming fear(14:24) Real-life examples of self-respect(17:02) Rooting out fear in the workplaceConnect with Rebecca:https://www.rebeccafleetwoodhession.com/

If there's one hidden force sabotaging your health, happiness, relationships, energy, and productivity, it's your emotions. Most of us were never taught how to manage them, which leaves us stressed, reactive, and held back from the life we want. Emotional intelligence (EQ) is the key to changing that. My guest today is Dr. Travis Bradberry—bestselling author of Emotional Intelligence 2.0 and The New Emotional Intelligence, with over 5 million books sold and a following of 2.6 million on LinkedIn. Recognized as the world's leading expert on EQ, his research has helped millions unlock greater success and fulfillment. In this conversation, Dr. Bradberry unpacks the science and strategies of emotional intelligence—from the “anger funnel,” to perspective shifts, to why you can't increase your EQ without first increasing your self-awareness. You'll discover how EQ impacts stress, happiness, conflict, and energy—and how small, repeatable behaviors can literally rewire your brain and put you on the path to a higher EQ.

Materialism poisons our hearts by making possessions more important than God. The only antidote is generosity empowered by grace—grace that enables joyful, sacrificial giving even in hardship. The Macedonians modeled this, proving that even in poverty, God's grace can overflow through the gift of giving.

Pastors Matt, Luke, and Jeremy dive deep into the core of biblical anxiety relief: Philippians 4:6-7. In this episode, they break down the practical difference between the ESV and NLT translations, share personal struggles with finances and uncertainty, and explore how prayer transforms worry into peace. The discussion addresses recent challenging events while demonstrating how God's timing in sermon planning often provides exactly what we need to hear. What You'll Discover: Why the NLT translation offers powerful practical help for anxious moments How to handle finances and uncertainty without falling into worry The spiritual roots of society's current struggles with anxiety and violence Four practical steps to take when anxiety begins to bubble up Why reminding ourselves of the gospel isn't just for new believers Featured Scripture: "Don't worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. Then you will experience God's peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus." - Philippians 4:6-7 (NLT)

Have you ever tried to build a life while constantly criticizing yourself and wondering why nothing feels stable? Maybe you push yourself under the bus, act like your own worst critic, or apologize for your needs. When you reject yourself, every boundary crumbles and every goal feels impossible because you're building on quicksand.   In this episode, we dive into why self-acceptance is the real antidote to self-abandonment. We talk about how patterns of people-pleasing, over-functioning, and constant apologizing were survival strategies that made sense at the time, and how they can now keep you stuck. Learn a five-step process to start practicing self-acceptance that will help you make decisions from a place of self-trust, deepen your relationships, and show up fully as yourself.   Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://www.ambitious-ish.com/81   Ready to make this fall different?

We talk about laziness like it's a personality trait—but what if it's just a lack of structure? In this episode, Cole Nixon breaks down how discipline isn't about being perfect—it's about showing up when it's hard, building trust with yourself, and creating momentum that lasts. From the grind of entrepreneurship to the chaos of community events, Cole shares how discipline has kept him moving when motivation ran dry.If you've ever felt stuck, scattered, or like you're falling short of your potential, this one's for you. It's not about hustle—it's about consistency. And it might just be the mindset shift you didn't know you needed.

This sermon from the "Anxious for Nothing" series addresses rising anxiety in the wake of recent tragedies like school shootings and the 9/11 anniversary, attributing societal violence to humanity's sin problem and the removal of God from public life. Building on Philippians 4:6-7, Pastor Matt presents prayer as the primary antidote to worry and anxiety, explaining that Paul wrote these instructions while imprisoned and facing potential execution, demonstrating their effectiveness even in dire circumstances. The message includes practical teaching on prayer as conversation with God about everything, contrasts biblical meditation (filling the mind with Scripture) with Eastern meditation (emptying the mind), and references Jesus's own teachings and example of turning to prayer during distress. The core promise is that supernatural peace follows prayer—peace that transcends understanding and guards the heart and mind regardless of circumstances, as illustrated by Peter's water-walking experience where focusing on Jesus enabled stability while focusing on circumstances caused him to sink. The sermon concludes with four practical steps for managing anxiety: surrendering to Jesus Christ (overall and in each situation), turning anxious thoughts into prayers, relying on the Holy Spirit's help, and memorizing Scripture, emphasizing that peace with God through salvation must precede experiencing God's peace in daily life.

In this powerful episode of the Dad Edge Podcast, I sit down with Chandler Rogers—founder of the Relay app and a man on a mission to help men break free from pornography and reclaim deep connection. Chandler shares his raw personal story as a new dad, a husband navigating the fog of sleep deprivation, and a man who turned his own struggle with porn into a platform that has already helped over 5,000 men heal. This conversation isn't just about addiction—it's about isolation, shame, leadership, and stepping into the masculine role your family needs. Chandler reveals the emotional spiral that so many husbands silently endure and how one vulnerable conversation with his wife brought them closer than ever. We talk about why porn is not the real issue, how to lead with emotional clarity, and what it means to truly be seen by your partner. If you've ever struggled with secret shame, felt alone in your role as a dad or husband, or craved deeper intimacy and purpose, this episode will show you you're not broken—just unfinished. Real healing starts with connection. TIMELINE SUMMARY [0:00] - Welcome to the Dad Edge and today's focus: breaking the shame cycle [3:09] - Becoming a father: sleep deprivation, joy, and surprises [8:45] - Marriage after kids: missed connection, emotional gaps, and resentment [12:06] - The physical toll of fatherhood and why self-care matters [13:29] - The emotional cost of disconnection in marriage [15:09] - How resentment is the cancer of relationships [16:50] - Why Chandler named his platform “Relay” and its deeper meaning [18:20] - Why isolation fuels addiction and how connection heals [19:34] - Why porn isn't the problem—it's a comfort mechanism [20:35] - Porn as a symptom of emotional wounds, not the root cause [21:21] - Childhood trauma, hyper-stimulus, and the pain-pleasure cycle [22:56] - How most men justify porn use (and why those stories fall apart) [25:35] - The shame spiral: dissociation, numbness, and fragmentation [28:54] - When needs go unmet: rationalizing porn through “selflessness” [30:11] - Owning masculine needs without blame or desperation [32:03] - Chandler's powerful conversation with his wife that changed everything [33:17] - Why emotional awareness is the first step to intimacy [34:18] - The feminine response: how wives crave emotional leadership [35:30] - The difference between openness and emotional outbursts [36:38] - The moment Chandler reconnected with his wife through vulnerability [39:47] - How unspoken needs lead to resentment—and eventually porn [41:25] - The silver lining: how healing starts with connection [43:20] - How Relay works: anonymous, app-based community for men [46:45] - Why your wife shouldn't be your accountability partner [48:02] - Why connection must be as easy as access to porn [49:47] - How Relay connects you with the right people  [51:36] - Seeing your group's progress and showing up with purpose [53:11] -  Designing your future vs. resisting your past [54:11] - Replacing one habit with a better one: app design insights [56:33] - How a community will help you grow into a better person [58:01] - The real problem isn't desire, it's implementation [01:00:00] - Why information alone won't change your life [1:01:06] -  Where to find Chandler and the Relay app 5 KEY TAKEAWAYS   1. Porn Isn't the Problem—It's the Pain Most men turn to porn not out of lust, but to numb discomfort, avoid connection, or cope with emotional pain they haven't addressed.   2. Resentment Is the Silent Killer of Marriage Unspoken needs become stories. Stories become disconnection. And disconnection becomes resentment. That's the cancer that silently kills intimacy.   3. You're Not Broken—You're Just Unfinished Most men don't lack desire or information—they lack implementation. Healing is not about perfection. It's about progress with others.   4. Emotional Leadership Is Masculine When men speak their needs clearly—without blame, shame, or desperation—it inspires women to soften, lean in, and reconnect.   5. Connection Is the Antidote to Shame Isolation fuels addiction. Community kills shame. Vulnerability with safe men in a trusted circle is what creates lasting transformation.   LINKS & RESOURCES   Join Relay (Chandler's App): https://www.joinrelay.app Email Chandler: chandler@joinrelay.app Dad Edge Podcast: https://www.thedadedge.com/podcast Join the Alliance (Dad Edge Community): https://www.thedadedge.com/alliance
