Podcasts about Applause

You already know something is off. The output is there. You're showing up, doing the work, performing at a level other people can see. But underneath all of it, there's a strain you can't quite name — a low-grade exhaustion that has nothing to do with how many hours you slept and everything to do with why you're doing what you're doing. You are working for your identity instead of from it. And no amount of productivity is going to fix a motivation problem. Pentatonix's Kevin Olusola and Donovan Dee Donnell join me today for a riveting conversation. Kevin Olusola, Grammy-winning beatboxer and member of Pentatonix, and Donovan Dee Donnell, life coach, counselor, and co-author of Designed to Succeed, join me for one of the most theologically loaded conversations this show has ever had. Kevin names something with startling precision: he gave up the ghost — not as resignation, but as full surrender to the Father at the Hollywood Bowl in 2022, performing before thousands without needing their applause because his being was finally more secure than his doing. Donovan unpacks the mechanics of fear with the clarity of someone who has lived in both the wreckage and the rebuild, walking us through what he and Kevin call the verify-purify-occupy framework, the three-move sequence for dismantling fear's claim before it ever gains a foothold. Together, they trace a thread that runs from identity through core values, through alignment and its guardrails, to the question every person of purpose will eventually have to answer: What are you willing to die for? This is not a conversation about success. It is a conversation about what happens when your motivation is finally honest enough to be sanctified. It will ask you to do something you have probably been postponing — to go to God with the actual thing, not the acceptable version of it, and let Him work with what is true. Guest Bios Kevin Olusola is a three-time Grammy Award-winning musician and beatboxer best known as a member of Pentatonix, the a cappella group that has amassed nearly five billion streams on YouTube. A Yale University graduate who came within a semester of a pre-med track, Kevin traded the expectations of his immigrant Nigerian-Grenadian family for a music career built on the unconventional combination of classical cello and beatboxing — and paid for that leap in ways that eventually led him to something more costly than a career pivot: a genuine reckoning with why he was performing at all. He is also the founder of Imagine Faith Talk, where his platform merges high-performance principles with a Pentecostal-Charismatic faith, and the author of a solo musical project, Dawn of a Misfit. Donovan Dee Donnell is a life coach, former counselor, and co-author of Designed to Succeed. A self-described introvert with an extrovert's calling, Donovan brings both the rigor of professional coaching and the honesty of someone who has navigated some dark places — including years as a stripper and a long reckoning with what it costs to build a life that isn't afraid of criticism. He is a founding collaborator on the Imagine Faith Talk platform alongside Kevin Olusola, and his coaching work centers on helping people identify the guardrails that protect alignment and do the internal work necessary to keep their motivation honest.

Tim Hawkins has spent 25 years making audiences laugh, but this conversation goes far beyond comedy. Ginny and Tim walk through two decades of songs, videos, homeschooling adventures, family life, and the unexpected twists that shaped his career. Along the way, Tim shares the story behind some of his most beloved parodies, what nearly cost him his marriage, the process of slowing down some, and what it feels like to have his grown children working alongside him today. This episode is a reminder that the best parts of life aren't the things that go viral, they're the people who are still there when the lights come down.

SEND ME A TEXT MESSAGE NOWAmerica officially crossed into parody territory.In this episode, Jeff dives headfirst into one of the strangest weeks in modern American politics where the White House starts looking less like it's the center of global diplomacy and more like a pay per view event sponsored by chaos and caffeine.From plans involving the White House lawn itself to increasingly surreal political rhetoric surrounding Iran, this episode explores the feeling that the country's gone so far off the rails that reality now sounds like a rejected comedy script somebody found in a studio dumpster behind Hollywood.Jeff also breaks down the political earthquake happening in Texas and why Republicans might have accidentally created a massive problem for themselves while celebrating victory. What looks like triumph on the surface could actually become one of the biggest political miscalculations in years.The episode also takes a hard look at America's increasingly convoluted immigration system and the growing disconnect between politicians yelling “come legally” while the legal process itself becomes harder, slower, and more absurd by the week.This is part political commentary, part societal exhaustion, and part “how the hell did we get here?” therapy session for people watching America transform into something that often feels more like satire than reality.At this point the only thing missing is a giant flashing “APPLAUSE” sign above Congress while smoke machines blast behind the podium and somebody sells commemorative energy drinks in gold cans in the lobby.If you've enjoyed the podcast and found it informative, and maybe got a laugh or two, then please contribute to keeping this podcast around. I'm not backed by Corporate media.

  What happens when a person becomes more committed to the persona than the person underneath it? In this episode of The New Rules Podcast, Adrian Crawford and Bri explore the tension between authenticity, fame, identity, art, culture, leadership, and emotional pain. Using Drake, Justin Bieber, Sam Altman, Jay-Z, and Søren Kierkegaard as case studies, they unpack how people create personas to survive pain — and what it takes to create a life that truly matters. This conversation dives deep into: Why people dissociate from themselves The emotional cost of fame and influence Drake's "villain era" and what it reveals about modern culture Why responsibility is essential for growth Art as therapy, meaning, and legacy The danger of creating for applause instead of truth How technology, AI, and power reshape identity The role suffering plays in becoming authentic What it means to make your life a work of art Why slowing down and reflecting matters more than ever This is a conversation about becoming who you actually are — not who the world rewards you for pretending to be. If this episode resonates with you, share it with someone who's wrestling with identity, purpose, creativity, or growth. #NewRulesPodcast #Authenticity #Drake #JustinBieber #SamAltman #Leadership #PersonalGrowth #Art #Identity #Culture #JayZ   Pre-Order the Book Pre-order the book here: http://magnumopusproject.co   If this episode resonated with you, share it with someone who needs it.

Adam Goldbruch still remembers the celebration. In 2017, he stood inside a Tel Aviv startup office while employees cheered a milestone: a Disney princess quiz had generated “2.8 million page views,” he tells us. Champagne circulated as the founder delivered a visionary speech about changing communication through content.At the time, Goldbruch was young enough to be swept up in the excitement, but skeptical enough to question what those metrics truly meant. Three years later, he found himself in the same company leading cost reductions and layoffs after realizing the celebrated KPI had not translated into sustainable value, he tells us.That experience shaped the finance philosophy he carries today as CFO of DoorLoop. Goldbruch's career began in construction finance, where he learned unit economics by seeing how materials and labor translated into physical buildings, he tells us. He later built FP&A functions across startups, private firms, and public companies, experiences that taught him how to identify the operational “ropes” that actually move a business forward.At DoorLoop, that mindset surfaced again when leadership considered several new monetization initiatives. Rather than chase immediate revenue, Goldbruch modeled one-, three-, and five-year outcomes and concluded the company should focus on expanding the number of property units served, he tells us.For Goldbruch, finance leadership is not about celebrating vanity metrics. It is about identifying the measurements that compound value over time.

Rock Riley turns his attention to the Buccaneers with a pair of hot-button topics stirring debate across Tampa Bay. First, should the Bucs make a move for veteran defensive standout Cam Jordan? Rock weighs the potential impact, locker room fit, and whether adding a proven pass rusher is the missing piece for Tampa's defense. Then, he dives into the buzz around Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel—did his recent standing ovation feel earned, or was it a bit over the top? From roster strategy to league-wide storylines, Rock brings sharp insight and strong opinions in this can't-miss episode for football fans.

We often think we're doing the right things—giving generously, praying faithfully, even fasting—but Jesus challenges us to examine something deeper: our motives. In Matthew 6, we're confronted with a piercing question that cuts through our religious activities: who are we really doing this for? Are we seeking the applause of people around us, or are we genuinely pursuing intimacy with God? This passage reveals that the same act of giving, praying, or fasting can either draw us closer to God or become a performance for human approval. The reward we receive depends entirely on our audience. When Jesus says 'when you give,' 'when you pray,' and 'when you fast,' He's not making suggestions—He's assuming these disciplines are part of our lives. But He warns us against the subtle trap of practicing righteousness to be seen by others. The challenge isn't to stop doing good things, but to check our hearts constantly. Are we giving our first fruits or our leftovers? Are our prayers genuine conversations with the Creator or impressive performances? Are we willing to deny our flesh through fasting to say yes to Jesus? This isn't about earning God's love—it's about recognizing that everything we have already belongs to Him. We're simply conduits of His generosity, not the source. The beautiful promise is this: when we draw near to God with pure motives, He draws near to us. Our spiritual disciplines become pathways to experiencing His presence rather than badges we display for others to admire.

In this conversation, Lantz Howard sits down with Dr. Trevor Hislop — former pastor, marriage and family therapist, Doctor of Ministry, Chief Development Officer at Live Well Behavioral Health, and developer of Renovi Relational Therapy (RRT).Trevor shares his journey from competitive athlete and worship leader chasing validation through achievements and stage applause, to discovering a more secure identity rooted in connection rather than performance. They explore:How early "little t" traumas and family dynamics shape achievement-driven leadershipAttachment styles and why identity forms in relationships, not isolation or credentialsThe detox from people-pleasing and over-functioningBalancing confidence with humility (e.g., owning your strengths without posturing)A raw, practical discussion for high-achieving leaders who want to lead from wholeness instead of wounds.--Learn more about coaching with Lantz Howard at www.lantzhoward.com

Send us Fan MailHe helped raise £225 million, worked punishing weeks, and then walked away from it all. Jon Kaye joins me in The Clearing to unpack the moment he stopped chasing the obvious definition of success and started rebuilding a life around creativity, community, and better questions.We talk through Jon's founder story in private equity: the risk of resigning with a pregnant wife, a new house, and no salary, and the life-changing power of one credible person saying “yes”. From there, the conversation turns to burnout, the decision not to launch “fund two”, and the radical reset of taking three young children out of school to travel the world for a year. If you're thinking about career change, work life balance, or designing a second act, John's honesty lands hard.From his basement music studio packed with modular synthesisers and miles of cables, Jon explains why friction matters and why making things harder can lead to more original work, especially in a world flooded with AI content. We dig into his Unmastered newsletter ethos of thinking clearly, living deliberately, and creating without chasing, plus the community-first mission behind DO Radio, a live station you can't pause or download by design.If this conversation sparks something in you, subscribe, share it with a friend who needs a reset, and leave a review.

When approval decreases, it's easy to question our worth. But a quieter scoreboard doesn't mean less value — it often means deeper alignment. This episode explores choosing peace over pressure and conviction over constant validation. Identity over approval. Alignment over applause. Conviction over constant validation. Define your worth internally and build confidence through consistent, values-driven action.

Award-winning recording artist and songwriter, Rachael Lampa, opens up about the pivotal moment she walked away from a massive music career at age 20 to find her own voice. After years of living on autopilot, she discovered that true identity is not found in metrics or accolades but in the quiet rhythms of serving others through Nashville's homeless community and women's prison ministries. This episode explores how her son Leo has taught her to embrace the superpower of connection over the constant hurry of life. Listeners will learn how to transition from a mindset of perfection to one of harmony while guarding their intrinsic worth as a child of God.Guest Links:RachaelLampaMusic"Perfectly Loved""Superpowers"Credits: Host: Lisa Nichols, Executive Producer: Jenny Heal, Marketing Support: Landon Burke and Joe Szynkowski, Podcast Engineer: Portside Media

In this episode, Dr. Killeen shares a simple but powerful analogy about investing in your home and how it reflects the way we build our lives and practices. Do you focus more on how things look from the outside, or how they actually feel on the inside? He explores the tension between external validation and internal alignment, especially in dentistry where reviews, awards, and peer recognition can easily shape decisions. Lead with integrity, build around your values, and choose the kind of success you can feel proud of when the day is done.

We all long to know if our lives matter and if anyone sees us when there is no applause.Pastor Justin shares genuine stories of struggle and transformation, along with practical tools for staying connected to Christ, even when unseen.

Are you living for God's approval… or people's applause? Most of us enjoy recognition. We like being noticed, appreciated, and affirmed. Even when we serve God, there can be a quiet craving underneath — the desire to be seen. But Jesus said something that cuts completely against our natural instincts: "I am not seeking glory for myself." — John 8:50 In this episode, Rob explores the subtle trap of self-glory and the freedom that comes when we seek God's approval alone. Pride often hides behind good works, and even spiritual service can become a stage where we hope someone will notice. True humility isn't self-hatred or insecurity. It's something far healthier: self-forgetfulness. When our focus shifts from human praise to God's approval, our motivation becomes pure and our joy becomes deeper. In this episode you'll learn: Why the desire for recognition can quietly shape our spiritual lives How pride often hides behind religious activity What Jesus meant when He said He wasn't seeking glory for Himself The difference between humility and insecurity How to redirect the craving for praise into gratitude toward God The peace that comes from serving quietly without needing applause Jesus lived completely free from the addiction to human praise. His life invites us into that same freedom — a life where our goal is not applause from people but the simple words from God: "Well done, good and faithful servant." Key Scriptures John 8:50 Matthew 6:1–6 Matthew 25:21 Reflection Questions Who am I really doing this for? Would I still serve the same way if no one noticed? Am I seeking God's approval or human applause? Next Steps If this episode encouraged you, here are a few ways to stay connected:
