Netflix's 'Monster': The Ed Gein Story; What the Show Got Totally Wrong!

Fr. Mike discusses our call to deny ourselves and take up our cross, specifically focusing on God's call to renounce all that is ours and trust in him. He also highlights the story of Mary and Martha and encourages us not to allow the cares of life to choke the life of God out of our lives as Martha allowed her troubles and anxieties to do. Today's readings are from Luke 9-10 and Proverbs 26:4-6. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear. Please note: The Bible contains adult themes that may not be suitable for children - parental discretion is advised.

Fresh out of the studio, Arnaud Frade, Managing Partner at Mesh Advisory and author of the upcoming book The Sentient Startup, joins us to explore how AI is fundamentally transforming entrepreneurship through the radical concept of AI as a true co-founder rather than merely a tool. He distinguishes between startups that are merely "AI-onboard" versus true sentient startups where AI operates as part of how the business is run, and introducing the concept of Machine Resources (MR) as a new organizational function alongside Human Resources to manage evolving AI models and maintain knowledge integrity. He emphasizes the co-intelligence model over the sterile human-versus-machine debate, highlighting how the 95% AI project failure rate stems from organizational issues rather than technology problems—a reality perfectly captured by the Banani framework (Brittle, Anxious, Non-linear, Incomprehensible) that explains why companies struggle with AI readiness. Closing the conversation, Arnaud shares what great looks like for The Sentient Startup: being part of the essential conversation about AI governance, accessibility across income levels, child safety, and building better regulations."The entire debate on human versus machine is extremely  in a way sterile because it very quickly veers towards the science fiction, the movies, the images we have, and it forgets the point about what can we gain.  but what can we gain in the context of having accountability and integrity with it? I think this is where the debate becomes more complex. So for me that's the bigger point is this is not about having less people. It's about having people  doing better things and  using their talent to really scale what they can do in that model of co-intelligence. " - Arnaud FradeEpisode Highlights:[00:00] Quote of the Day by Arnaud Frade[01:00] Introduction: Arnaud Frade [02:49] Arnaud's career journey [05:27] Advice: stick to values and volunteer for opportunities [07:21] Arnaud's story on his first book about algorithmic marketing [09::32] Sam Altman's solopreneur unicorn comment was the epiphany [10:04] Sentient startup: AI as co-founder, enhanced by co-intelligence [12:15] AI onboard versus AI as true co-founder distinction[16:45] Barriers to entry reducing with AI and agentic models[23:40] MIT report: 95% of AI pilots fail organizationally[28:15] Need overlay systems for effective agentic AI[30:45] Culture: retain humanity when engaging with AI[36:10] Governance frameworks for AI decision-making transparency [40:10] Banani framework: brittle, anxious, non-linear, incomprehensible[42:16] Co-intelligence model versus human versus machine debate[43:19] Goal: be part of the conversation on AI[44:15] Focus on regulations, access equity, and child safety[45:00] ClosingProfile: Arnaud Frade, author of "The Sentient Startup" which will launch on May 19, 2026 via Penguin Random House.

In this episode, we explore what happens when you finally meet a good, emotionally available man, but your anxious attachment starts to panic.We talk about why healthy love can feel unsafe when you're used to chaos, inconsistency, or having to prove your worth in relationships. You'll learn how to recognize when your nervous system is reacting to safety as unfamiliar, and how to start soothing that part of you that expects love to be hard.This conversation also touches on the difference between genuine connection and emotional intensity, and how to stay grounded when you want to run, overthink, or self-sabotage.Enjoy this episode

This summer, I hit a breaking point. Seriously, my friends wanted to admit me for professional help. After my most recent breakup, I was on the verge of a breakdown. Not because a man had that much power over me —but because of what his leaving exposed within me.The breakup wasn't the cause of my pain;it was the catalyst that cracked open the deep places of my heart —places where old wounds and patterns had been hiding for years.So today, I'm sharing something deeply personal.This isn't for him, although it's addressed to him.This is for the woman listening right now who knows that kind of ache — the anxious heart that just wants answers, the love that feels unfinished, the pain that God promises to redeem.And this is not just for singles--I know married women who need this healing. If you've ever loved an avoidant,if you've ever been ghosted,if you've ever been left wondering what went wrong,I pray this episode brings you comfort and clarity.Because sometimes… God uses heartbreak to bring healing.

Paul’s superb exhortation, ‘be anxious for nothing’ is a loaded statement, and followers of Jesus—His church—can’t afford to ignore it. When Christians do—the outcome plays right into the Enemy’s plans…

Matthew 6:25-34; Matt Clegg, Associate Pastor at RMC; the 13th sermon in the series on the Sermon on the Mount, "He Sat and Taught."

Panicogenic Relaxation: Why You Feel Anxious When Feeling CalmYou're finally feeling better. The anxiety has lifted. You're relaxed and calm for the first time in months or even years. So why does that feel so weird? And why are you suddenly anxious about feeling calm?In this episode, Drew and Josh explore "panicogenic relaxation". This is a common experience in anxiety disorder recovery where feeling normal, neutral, or relaxed can trigger concern or even high anxiety and panic. When you've been anxious for so long, that heightened state becomes your predictable default. The absence of anxiety can feel unfamiliar, strange, or even threatening.In this episode, we discuss:Why feeling calm or relaxed can feel uncomfortable or even scary during recoveryHow your brain's scanning mechanisms continue even when you're no longer anxiousWhy anxiety becomes a "predictable pillar" after long periods of struggleThe importance of practicing being relaxed, not just practicing being anxiousHow the shock-attention-resistance cycle continues even when you're feeling betterWhy all emotional states - including calm - need to be permissibleHow to recognize when you're still checking and monitoring even during neutral statesWe also share inspiring "Did It Anyway" stories from the community, including someone who kept pushing through fatigue to go to new places, and another who took their first step away from 13 years of self-medication.---Want a way to ask questions about this episode or interact with other Disordered listeners?  The Disordered app is nearing release! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Visit our home page and get on our mailing list for more information..---Struggling with worry and rumination that you feel you can't stop or control? Check out ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Worry and Rumination Explained⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, a two hour pre-recorded workshop produced by Josh and Drew.

What if your algorithm knows more about your emotions than you do?In this episode, host Raghu Banda sits down with Dr. Agnieszka Piotrowska — filmmaker, psychoanalyst, and life coach — to explore how AI is quietly reshaping identity, emotional health, and our sense of self in a world of constant surveillance.

 Imagine you enter a messy room,.. How do you feel?Can we compare our mind with a messy room, when we are distracted? The first Method: In our mind we have many voices that are arguing, negotiating, or even disturbing us…If we deny one of these voices, we support this voice with energy and strengthen it.For instance, a devotee went to his guru and complained that his mind was chattering all the time so he could not meditate or find peace…The guru said: don't think on mice, if you think on a mouse punish yourself… Because if you think about mice you eventually become a mouse in your next life…  The devotee went home and was wondering why his Guru had told him not to think on mice? He has never thought on mice before… But when he started with his meditation; he was continuously thinking about mice… It became worse and worse… What you deny/neglect/suppress/fight that you empower…So we watch our thoughts and don't fight against them.We give our different voices unique names so we can identify them without fighting …For instance.The complainerThe critic Inner childSuperegoPerfectionistAnxiousAngerMotherBrotherSisterFatherDarlingJustificationPoliceJudgerPoliticianSellerBuyerGreedyBoringCreative….When a voice wants to say something we let the voice say something to us.  Afterwards we say: “thank you for sharing.” Or if we don't have time, please wait, share your opinion in an hour or so… (be truthful and definitive).Through the discrimination of our different voices and watching them, they will lose their power over us… Quote: If you call a demon by his name, he becomes weaker… The second Method:We make every day 3 times brainstorming for 5 minutes and write down every single thought…After a month, we read all of our thoughts. Then we identify our thinking pattern that repeats and again…  So if we run the next time in the same pattern we already have identified, we simply notify that…  And the thinking pattern will lose so their power over us. My Video: Techniques to calm down our mind https://youtu.be/EGbvdwqPGBAMy Audio: https://divinesuccess.net/wp-content/uploads/2021/Podcast1/Techniques-to-calm-down-our-mind.mp3

Send in a question or comment via text.Sometimes life throws real challenges at us—loss, relationship changes, health concerns, financial struggles—that naturally trigger anxiety. But when you're dealing with an anxiety disorder, these moments become especially confusing. How do you tell the difference between "normal" anxiety and disordered anxiety? And what do you do when recovery concepts don't seem to apply?In this episode, we explore what happens when bad things really do happen in life and trigger genuine anxiety. We'll talk about why not all anxiety is disordered anxiety, how anxiety disorders create a unique challenge when facing legitimate life stressors, and why there are no tricks or hacks to make these feelings instantly disappear.If you've ever found yourself struggling with big emotions during difficult life events and wondering how you're "supposed to" handle them, this episode may help you understand what's actually happening—and offer a more compassionate perspective on being human during challenging times.For full show notes on this episode:https://theanxioustruth.com/330Support The Anxious Truth: If you find the podcast helpful and want to support my work, you can buy me a coffee.

In this episode, we explore why anxiety can seem to appear for no reason at all. We look more closely at the role of the threat response and uncover why it actually makes sense that we feel anxious. There is always a reason, even if it's not the one we expect.

Anxiety Is Never a Helpful Lens for Your Life's Focus – “Do not be anxious about your life . . . seek his kingdom” MESSAGE SUMMARY: Put a name on the cause of your anxiety and offer it to the Lord in prayer. Anxiety is never a helpful lens though which to focus your life. As Jesus tells you, in Luke 12:22,31, that you should not be anxious and to seek first the Kingdom of God: “And he said to his disciples, ‘Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat, nor about your body, what you will put on . . . Instead, seek his kingdom, and these things will be added to you . . .'”. Also, Paul tells us, in Philippians 4:14, that: “I can do everything through Him who gives me strength.”. As a follower of Jesus today, why are you anxious? Remember, you have a personal relationship with God, the Creator of the Universe.   TODAY'S PRAYER: Lord, everything in me resists following you into the garden of Gethsemane to fall on my face to the ground before you. Grant me the courage to follow you all the way to the cross, whatever that might mean for my life. And then, by your grace, lead me to resurrection life and power. In Jesus' name, amen.   Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 100). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: Today, I affirm that, because I am in Jesus Christ, I press on toward His goal for me. (Philippians 3:12f). “I can do everything through Him who gives me strength.”. (Philippians 4:14). SCRIPTURE REFERENCE (ESV): Luke 12:22-34; Matthew 6:31; Isaiah 35:4; Philippians 4:4-9; Psalms 78c:25-36. A WORD FROM THE LORD WEBSITE: www.AWFTL.org.

In this episode, we explore why people with anxiety disorders often feel anxious most of the day. To understand this, we need to look at the body's threat response, the system designed to protect us but which can become overactive and misfiring. I talk about how this response fuels our symptoms, how we interact with it, and what keeps it going. Drawing on both my own experiences and my work as a therapist, we'll start to make sense of why anxiety can feel so constant.

The Panic Pod returns after a four-year break. In this first episode, we go back to where it all began. If you're anxious, confused, and don't know where to start, or if you've consumed endless self-help content and still don't feel better, take a breath and join me here. I'll walk you through how, as both a therapist and a former sufferer, we find our way back to a good place again.

Whether it's 3AM wakeups, spiraling thoughts, phobias, or that constant undercurrent of unease, anxiety can feel like it's running your life. That's why I recorded this solo episode—to share the real-life tools that help me cope, move forward, and feel like myself again. I'm answering your most asked anxiety questions—about nighttime anxiety, fear of flying, OCD tendencies, and feeling stuck in therapy. I'll share how I reframe my inner critic, what I say when I feel like a burden, and why I believe anxiety doesn't make you broken. This isn't about being “fixed.” It's about supporting your nervous system, getting curious about your patterns, and finding tiny, doable shifts that will make life feel lighter.

In this episode, I'm unpacking silent resentment — the kind that builds when we either try to communicate and feel ignored, or never communicate at all because we hope someone will just get it.You'll learn how silent resentment forms, what it costs you emotionally, and how emotional intelligence can help you break the cycle — so you can finally say what you mean without guilt, fear, or shutdown.Ready for the mini-programs?

Don't forget to grab your free scripture journal at ⁠⁠⁠PrayingChristianWomen.com/journal ⁠⁠⁠today!Feeling that "revving engine" of a mind that won't quit, or the "brick on your chest" that makes it hard to breathe, even when you're smiling and checking off the to-do list? What if that high-functioning anxiety isn't a spiritual failure, but an invitation to experience God's power in your weakness? This week on the Praying Christian Women podcast, join Jamie as she chats with author, speaker, and (in)courage editor, Becky Keife, about her powerful new devotional, A Verse a Day for the Anxious Soul. Drawing from her own 11-year journey with a clinical anxiety disorder, Becky shares transparently about the physical reality of anxiety—the "coffee jitters," the "revving engine," and the overwhelming fatigue—and the isolation of looking "fine" on the outside. She dismantles the stigma that anxiety is a spiritual failing, reframing it as a "gift" that acts as an arrow straight to God's heart. From the "beauty of AND" (holding the truth that you are anxious and full of faith) to the "unforced rhythms of grace" found in Jesus' yoke in Matthew 11, this episode blends deep spiritual anchors with practical, holistic "peace practices." Jamie and Becky get real about everything from the power of a simple hug, to the impact of hormones, and the first brave step of telling someone you're not okay. It's a lifeline for any woman who feels overwhelmed, misunderstood, or alone in her struggle, offering validation and a path back to the Prince of Peace. You won't want to miss this deeply validating, hope-filled conversation.

Stephen and Megan dive into the ideas behind Jonathan Haidt's bestselling book, The Anxious Generation: How the Great Rewiring of Childhood Is Causing an Epidemic of Mental Illness. Together, they unpack how the rise of smartphones and the decline of play-based childhood have shaped an entire generation.In this conversation, Stephen explains Haidt's core argument that childhood was “rewired” around 2012 — trading outdoor play, social learning, and healthy risk for screen-based connection, comparison, and constant distraction. They explore how this great rewiring has uniquely impacted both boys and girls, why young adults today are more anxious and lonely than ever, and how we can begin reclaiming what was lost.You'll walk away with practical ways to manage your attention, pursue real-world relationships, and rediscover presence in a digital world that never stops scrolling.Be sure to subscribe today so you never miss an episode!4 Key Takeaways:Own Your Attention.

"If your kids went through puberty on a smartphone with social media, they came out different than human beings before” says Jonathan Haidt, author of the bestseller “The Anxious Generation.”He argues that childhood is now phone-based instead of play-based, resulting in anxious and depressed kids. "They know that life would be better if they didn't spend five or six hours a day on social media. They know that, but they can't help it” says Haidt. But not all researcher agree. I challenge Haidt with the criticism. In our podcast, Haidt responds, and lays out his best advice to protect kids from smartphones.

Emotions like fear and anxiety aren't inherently bad — they're warning lights that point to something else. But when those little alarms start going off in your head all the time, that's when they move from being a tool to an issue. This week, Tyler Moffett teaches from Psalm 46 to remind us that God is our refuge and strength so we don't always have to be on the defense.
