You can read every relationship book on your shelf and still get blindsided the moment someone you love moves closer, moves in, or simply hits the exact nerve you thought you already healed. That's why we wanted this candid conversation with Nancy Pickard, author and certified relational life therapy coach trained in Terry Real's work. We talk about why triggers are not just drama, they are data, and how the “adaptive child” takes over your brain in conflict unless you learn the skills to come back to your wise adult self. We get practical about what actually derails couples: the five losing strategies and how they show up in everyday fights. We also unpack anxious attachment and avoidant attachment, including how even a secure person can start to feel anxious when their partner is walled off. Nancy explains boundaries in a way you can use immediately, including the difference between a containing boundary (so you don't dump every thought) and a protective boundary (so you don't absorb everything that's thrown at you). We also go deeper than conflict management. Nancy shares a framework for the five types of intimacy and why expecting one partner to meet every need can quietly create resentment and codependence. You'll hear concrete communication tools used in relationship coaching and couples therapy.If you're dating, rebuilding trust, or trying to stop repeating the same patterns, this one will give you language and next steps.

Includes Butt Building Diet Guide, Women's Supplement Guide, at-home dumbbell version and a free second program at checkout (Muscle Mommy or Muscle Mommy 15). In this episode the guys break down the signs that your bulk or reverse diet is not working — losing weight on the scale, still feeling hungry, strength not going up, energy not improving, and sleep not getting better. They cover why strength is the single best metric to track during a bulk, why under eating during a supposed surplus leads to binge cycles on garbage food, and why women especially resist the scale going up even when building muscle is the goal. They also get into why old gym machines from the 90s with their heavier stacks were built for bodybuilders and how modern machines are designed for ease and safety, Paleo Valley bone broth protein in coffee that Sal's uncle has been doing for months without knowing it was a protein supplement, a new dating app exclusively for people who were never vaccinated for Covid, TBPN and how AI companies are buying podcasts to control public narrative — plus the William Hearst and cannabis prohibition parallel showing this is a 200-year-old game, pheromone maxing and the viral trend of guys skipping showers before dates, Arthur Brooks on the happiness data showing kids reduce daily enjoyment but dramatically increase meaning, and Vuori now making pickleball paddles as pickleball hit 479% growth and 24 million players in 5 years.

In today's episode, Jordan sits down with Arthur Brooks, professor at Vanderbilt University and a leading researcher into the science of happiness, to unpack why success so often fails to deliver the fulfilment it promises. Arthur explains the arrival fallacy, the hedonic treadmill and why the brain can treat achievement much like it treats drugs, alcohol or gambling. He introduces Thomas Aquinas' four idols of money, power, pleasure and honour, and walks Jordan through identifying which one quietly drives his own decisions. The conversation moves into the dark triad personality, the real difference between kindness and niceness, and why boredom and an undistracted mind matter far more than we think in an age of constant notifications. Jordan opens up about his pilgrimage across the Scottish Highlands, and the two discuss suffering, faith and what it actually means to live a meaningful life. Arthur closes with a message for every striver watching, that no amount of success can ever substitute for being loved. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

As artificial intelligence reshapes modern life, Church leaders, innovators, and thinkers explore how this technology can serve humanity. Inspired by Pope Leo XIV's call in Magnifica Humanitas, this EWTN News special examines real-world applications of AI in parish ministry, philanthropy, financial accessibility, and the protection of the vulnerable. Featuring insights from Arthur Brooks and leading Catholic innovators, the conversation offers a hopeful framework for engaging AI with courage, and faith.

We keep telling boys to “toughen up,” then we act shocked when grown men struggle to name what they feel. Psychologist Gloria Vanderhorst, PhD joins us to unpack how that training starts early, especially when energetic preschool boys get treated like problems to manage instead of people to understand. She explains why boys often arrive with a broader natural emotional range than girls, and how social pressure quickly narrows that range to a small set of “approved” emotions like confidence and anger.We dig into what emotional suppression costs across a lifetime. Gloria shares a vivid story from her clinical work where a three-year-old describes swallowing his tears until they become “rocks” he throws around the room, a child's perfect explanation for how unprocessed sadness can transform into rage. We also talk about divorce and co-parenting, why many custody schedules serve adult convenience, and how “nesting” can give children more stability by keeping them in one home.Along the way, we explore practical paths forward: men's groups and retreats, journaling that includes drawing and movement, and therapy models like Internal Family Systems (IFS) and emotion-focused therapy that help people access early experiences stored beyond words.

Anxiety never comes from the Lord. So the second I feel that tightness show up in my chest, I already know something true about myself. I am thinking about my life in a way that God does not want me to think about it. Period. Because if I were thinking about it the way He wants me to, I would be at peace. This episode is one question I want you to start asking faster than you are asking it right now. Not "Lord, take this away," but "Lord, what do you want me to know about this?" About this toddler. About my husband. About my body. About this house. I asked Him something this morning and He said, "You already know. You just doubt what I have already told you." Ooh, burn, Lord. We talk about why we are not reaching for Him sooner (we do not actually believe we could be at peace all the time), the grace you have to ask for before He hands it to you, what Fulton Sheen was doing in basically every talk he ever gave, and why Daniel in the lions' den and Mary at the foot of the cross were both at peace. WHAT WE COVER IN THIS EPISODE: The micro moment prayer: the second you notice tightness, throw your hands up and say "Lord, I invite you into this. Come be with me right now." Why anxiety is information and not a verdict. It tells you your thinking is off, not that your life is off The real reason we do not run to Him faster: we have never met a person who is at peace all the time, so we quietly decided it is not available to us Eight out of ten minutes. You will lose it. The win is how fast you come back Feeling powerless is the worst feeling there is, and being able to stay calm in any situation is one of the most powerful You are not done when you hear the sentence. Your job is to practice it, or your brain will spiral right back in two hours The gifts of the Holy Spirit were designed to be asked for. Wisdom, counsel, knowledge, understanding, fortitude, fear of the Lord. Ask Being at peace does not mean being peaceful. It means receiving. It means "this is okay right now and I can handle it" The surprise pregnancy test, the teenager going through it, the adult child who left the Church. You can be at peace today, in that EPISODE TIMELINE: (estimated at 5-minute marks, no timestamps in the transcript, confirm against audio) [00:00] – Hope when you feel anxious, trapped, stuck or frozen, and inviting the Lord into the micro moment [05:00] – "Lord, what do you want me to know about this?" Why anxiety never comes from Him, and what Mary has to do with our unbelief [10:00] – Eight out of ten minutes, and why staying calm is the most powerful you will ever feel [15:00] – Cheeky Jesus, the sentences He actually gives me, and writing them down so I can practice them [20:00] – My real morning (I do not pray first thing), redirecting my brain, and asking for grace and the gifts of the Holy Spirit [25:00] – Fulton Sheen, the beatification, and why all his talks end the same way. At peace is not peaceful.

Harvard Professor, Arthur Brooks, points to four pillars of happiness that include faith, family, friendship, and work that serves others.  Regarding faith, Professor Brooks says, “A religious, spiritual, or even philosophical outlook allows us to transcend the self and see the bigger picture, admitting our smallness in the grand scheme of things and reminding ...

The scariest part of leaving a toxic relationship isn't always the breakup, it's the moment you realize you've been living small for years. I sit down with Joni Woods, a certified life coach and relationship specialist, to talk about what it really takes to walk away from an abusive marriage, rebuild your identity, and stop repeating the same painful patterns. Joni is also the author of Burned, Blocked, and Better Than Ever, and she shares how journaling through divorce recovery helped her make sense of the past and choose a healthier future.We get honest about dating after divorce, especially the modern reality of dating apps, fast attachments, and the rebound relationship that can feel like “finally” until the red flags hit. Joni breaks down why rebounds are so powerful. We also talk about the “doppelganger” effect, when you date someone who feels eerily similar to your ex, and why collaboration can matter more than confidence if you're trying to build an emotionally healthy connection.One of my favorite parts is the practical side: simple boundaries, upfront honesty, and the courage to say what you need without apologizing for it. Joni also shares a gut-check for fear-based staying. If you want healthier relationships, better communication, and real self-worth after heartbreak, this conversation is for you.Subscribe so you don't miss the next one, share this with a friend who needs a reset, and leave a review to help more people find the show.Send us Fan Mail Support the showThanks for listening!Check out this site for everthing to know about women's pleasure including video tutorials and great suggestions for bedroom time!!https://for-goodness-sake-omgyes.sjv.io/c/5059274/1463336/17315Take the happiness quiz from Oprah and Arthur Brooks here: https://arthurbrooks.com/buildNEW: Subscribe monthly: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1805181/support Email  questions/comments/feeback to tamara@straightfromthesourcesmouth.co Website: https://straightfromthesourcesmouthpod.net/Instagram: @fromthesourcesmouth_franktalkTwitter: @tamarapodcastYouTube and IG: Tamara_Schoon_comicWant to be a guest on Straight from the Source's Mouth: Frank Talk about Sex and Dating?

According to Harvard Professor, Arthur Brooks, there's an annual survey that asks men and women if they feel their life is meaningless. Prior to 2008, the percentage of people typically affirming that belief was just 15%.  In 2008, however, the numbers increased significantly each year. For women, a meaningless life response reached 30%, and ... The post Is Life Meaningless? appeared first on Unconventional Business Network.

How do you become happier?Professor Arthur Brooks describes 3 “macronutrients” for a happier life: enjoyment, satisfaction and meaning. Rather than chasing positive feelings, the idea is to build more of each into our everyday lives.We get into some really practical ways to do this, including:• Why being bored is good for your brain• The three times to put your phone away each day• How to make your downtime more meaningful• How to find more meaning through love, awe and spirituality

Your desire isn't broken, and you're not “too much.” I'm joined by Satya Lila, a sacred sexuality teacher with over 30 years of experience helping women, men, singles, and couples rebuild intimacy by working with the body, the heart, and the subtle energy underneath it all.We start with a story many people will recognize: trying to make yourself smaller to keep a relationship stable, then watching your sexual energy disappear. From there, we get concrete. We talk about how shame trains us to go quiet, why sound can amplify pleasure, and how playful practice can help you find your voice again without forcing anything. Satya also shares how her work evolved into energetic sexuality, a slower approach that can include touch but doesn't depend on performance, penetration, or rushing toward orgasm.We dig into the real reasons orgasms get blocked. Satya explains how polarity can build attraction without sacrificing safety, and she introduces her idea of a connection ceremony, a dedicated space for intimacy that removes the goal-driven vibe that shuts so many bodies down. We also touch on full body orgasms and sustained orgasmic energy, plus how people can work with her online and explore free guided meditations at satyaleela.info.If this conversation helps you feel less alone, subscribe, share it with a friend, and leave a review.

Send us Fan MailMost of us treat leadership as a work word. It often lives in org charts and job titles and belongs to whoever has the bigger office. I believed that too for a long time.What I now know is that leadership starts on the inside. It shows up first in how I meet my own pressure, my own fear, my own wanting. Everything else grows from there.This episode opens a new series on leading at work and at home. I walk through the styles we will explore this season, such as servant, transformational, situational, and others, and why the one that works depends on where you and the people you lead actually are. I get into psychological safety and what it takes to build a place where people will tell the truth.

Journalist Jodi Kantor and Harvard happiness expert Arthur Brooks are both out with new books about identifying and cultivating meaning in one's life. Brooks says he wanted to write The Meaning of Your Life after observing an explosion in depression and anxiety among young people beginning around 2008.

Most people chase happiness as a feeling and wait for certainty before making big decisions, and both instincts quietly backfire. Dr. Arthur Brooks joins Dr. Gabrielle Lyon to break down what happiness is and how to act on it.In this episode, Dr. Gabrielle Lyon and Dr. Arthur Brooks discuss:The three "macronutrients" of happiness - enjoyment, satisfaction, and meaning, and why pursuing pleasure alone leads to detox, not happinessA usable rule for any hard decision: aim for roughly 80% excitement, 20% fear, and near-zero "deadness" once you have about 80% situational awarenessWhy solo pleasures don't stick if you're doing it alone, you're probably doing it wrong, and how enjoyment requires people plus memoryHow GLP-1s, SSRIs, and hormonal shifts can dull motivation, reward, and desire, and why knowing this gives you power over itSimple tech protocols: phone-free first hour, meals, and last hour that protect oxytocin, meaning, and connectionUnderstand happiness as something you build rather than something you wait to feel, and you walk away with concrete tools to decide better, connect deeper, and stop mistaking achievement for love.Want ad-free episodes?

Swiping promised freedom, but a lot of us ended up with the same result: more chats, more dates, and fewer people willing to build something that lasts. That is why we brought on Jeremy Nelson, the founder of MarryingAmerica.com, a new dating platform for marriage-minded singles who are done playing the numbers game and ready to date with real intention.We dig into Jeremy's “feast and famine” view of modern online dating: a feast of casual options paired with a famine of commitment. Then we get practical. MarryingAmerica.com is web-based by design (no app to live on), and it limits how you behave.From there, the conversation goes deeper: courtship, going slower, and the idea that love is something you do, not something you say. We also explore a surprising (and unsettling) angle: as AI chatbots and AI companions get easier to talk to than real humans, will people start opting out of human relationships entirely?If you want an intentional dating approach that prioritizes long-term relationships and marriage, listen now, share this with a friend who is serious about commitment, and subscribe and leave a review so more people can find the show.Send us Fan Mail Support the showThanks for listening!Check out this site for everthing to know about women's pleasure including video tutorials and great suggestions for bedroom time!!https://for-goodness-sake-omgyes.sjv.io/c/5059274/1463336/17315Take the happiness quiz from Oprah and Arthur Brooks here: https://arthurbrooks.com/buildNEW: Subscribe monthly: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1805181/support Email  questions/comments/feeback to tamara@straightfromthesourcesmouth.co Website: https://straightfromthesourcesmouthpod.net/Instagram: @fromthesourcesmouth_franktalkTwitter: @tamarapodcastYouTube and IG: Tamara_Schoon_comicWant to be a guest on Straight from the Source's Mouth: Frank Talk about Sex and Dating?

John Gavan, Executive Chair and former CEO of Evergreen® company KPFF Consulting Engineers, offers a roadmap for leadership development through his concept of Engineered Opportunities. John shares his 35-year journey from intern to CEO, illustrating how leaders must adapt as they progress in the organization and move from one role to the next. John outlines a four-stage career arc—Performer, Leader, Builder, and Guide—emphasizing that growth in leadership requires engineering success for those who follow, rather than just concern with moving oneself forward. Focusing on the later stages of the leadership journey, John draws on Arthur Brooks' research explaining the necessary shift from one of youthful fluid intelligence to one of wisdom arising from crystallized intelligence later in the journey. Listen to this talk and be inspired to intentionally engineer opportunities for the people you lead.

Heat can make people do some strange things. It can change your mood, cloud your judgment, and even affect the way you treat other people. Scientists have discovered that hot weather has a surprisingly powerful influence on the human mind—and the effects show up in places you would never expect. Listen as I explain what's really going on and why it's important to know. https://www.apa.org/monitor/2024/06/heat-affects-mental-health More people today say they feel their lives lack meaning and purpose than at any point in recent decades. Why? Has modern life quietly stripped away something essential—or are we simply searching for fulfillment in all the wrong places? And if purpose really is the key to a happier life, where does it actually come from? There is no better person to explore these questions with than my guest Arthur Brooks. He is a professor at Harvard Business School, one of the world's leading experts on happiness and human flourishing, a nationally syndicated columnist, CBS News contributor, and co-author with Oprah Winfrey of the bestselling book Build the Life You Want. His latest book is The Meaning of Your Life: Finding Purpose in an Age of Emptiness (https://amzn.to/4yUyVTp). If you've ever wondered what truly gives life meaning—and why so many people struggle to find it—you'll find this conversation fascinating. Every few months it seems we're told to stop eating one food and start eating another. Fat is bad—until it isn't. Carbs are the problem—unless they're not. With so much conflicting advice, it's no wonder so many people have no idea what a healthy diet actually looks like. According to Daniel Lieberman, much of what we've been taught about food is based on myths, misconceptions, and oversimplified thinking. Lieberman is Chair of the Department of Human Evolutionary Biology at Harvard University and author of Fed Up: A Hungry Person's Guide to the Story and Science of Food and Diets (https://amzn.to/4btal2d). He explains what the science really says, why nutrition has become so confusing, and how understanding our evolutionary past can help us make smarter decisions about what we eat. Have you ever worried that everyone could tell you were nervous? Maybe before giving a presentation, going on a date, or walking into an interview? Most of us assume our anxiety is obvious—but is it? The answer may surprise you.

In this episode of The Winston Marshall Show, I sit down with former Harvard professor and bestselling author Arthur Brooks for a conversation on happiness, meaning, smartphones, faith, and why modern life is making us miserable. We discuss the hidden cost of constant distraction, Gen Z's mental health crisis, prayer, suffering, social media, and why a meaningful life requires boredom, real relationships, and a deeper connection with God. A fascinating conversation about happiness, purpose, and what it truly means to live well.LIVE EVENT: Is Islam compatible with the West?

Last week we named the problem: contempt is addictive, corrosive, and the #1 predictor of divorce. This week we take up the harder question—how do we actually walk away from it?We open with an honest look at whether it's possible to keep a largely contempt-free marriage while still participating in a culture that runs on contempt. The short answer: not in any deep or sustainable way. Contempt is a habit of mind, and habits don't stay neatly contained. What we practice outside the home eventually shapes the atmosphere inside it.From there we get practical. Drawing from Arthur Brooks' Love Your Enemies, John Gottman's research, and real marriage experience, we walk through six concrete steps for starving the contempt habit and practicing warm-heartedness—especially at home.In this episode we discuss:Why you can't fully separate “contempt out there” from “contempt at home”The quiet fears that grow in a spouse when contempt is part of the atmosphereTreating your marriage as the laboratory for changeThe 5-to-1 rule and why it mattersMaking a personal rule that contempt is never justifiedReal moral courage: standing up for people who believe differently than youStaying curious instead of assuming the worstReducing exposure to outrage cultureUsing moments of contempt as practice opportunitiesThis episode is about direction, not perfection. The goal is to begin walking away from contempt—on purpose, over time—starting with the person who knows you best.Book mentioned:Love Your Enemies by Arthur BrooksRelated episode:The Addiction of ContemptGet in TouchWebsite: MasterYourMarriage.usInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/masteryourmarriage

In this episode of Lead Culture, Jenni Catron shares what she learned during an extended summer break and why stepping back can be essential for sustainable leadership. She reflects on the tension between doing and being, the challenge of slowing down, and how time away revealed deeper questions about purpose, significance, and identity.Jenni opens with a reminder that culture does not take care of itself and that leaders must lead with intention. She then shares how her sabbatical included time with friends and family, reading, rest, and intentional disconnection from social media, email, and Slack. Even though the break was restful, it also surfaced a struggle many overachievers face: feeling significant only when they are productive.A major takeaway from the episode is that nothing magical happened on sabbatical — and that was the point. Instead of chasing big ideas or a new vision, Jenni focused on stillness, presence, and making space for what matters most. She describes how this time helped her recognize the importance of creative space, mental rest, and the right-brain work of meaning-making and reflection.Jenni also connects her personal experience to a broader cultural insight, referencing Arthur Brooks' research on how modern life often overvalues efficiency and problem-solving while undernourishing meaning, creativity, and human connection. She shares how this tension was made even more vivid in the wake of an EF3 tornado in her community, where people rallied together and reminded her that people are the point.Key TakeawaysHealthy leaders need rhythms that sustain them.Rest is productive when it creates space for meaning and clarity.Leaders often confuse being with doing.Creativity, stillness, and reflection are essential leadership practices.People should remain the priority, even in busy or crisis-filled seasons.Questions Jenni Asks LeadersWhat can you do that disrupts your rhythms and lowers your heart rate?How can you disconnect your doing from your being?Are you making space for quiet, creativity, and presence?What rhythms do you need to lead in a healthy, sustainable way?Resources MentionedInvitation to Solitude and Silence by Ruth Haley BartonThe Ruthless Elimination of Hurry by John Mark ComerThe Sabbatical Journey by Alan BriggsThe Meaning of Life by Arthur BrooksJenni's book Clout: Discover and Unleash Your God-given InfluenceClosing EncouragementJenni ends by encouraging leaders to protect the rhythms that keep them healthy, purposeful, and present — not only for their own well-being, but for the health of their teams and cultures.

Sex doesn't usually fail in the bedroom first, it fails in the hours and days before it, when couples stop asking real questions and start running on assumptions. We sit down with Roy and Dr. Amy Clark, co founders of ARIA Luxury Brands and authors of The Four Intimacies, to map a clear path from “we feel disconnected” to “we know how to find each other again.”We talk through their Four Intimacies framework in plain language: verbal intimacy that opens the door, emotional intimacy that creates safety, physical intimacy that deepens trust and pleasure, and spiritual intimacy that often emerges when the first three are working. Along the way, we get practical about communication skills that actually change relationships, like listening to understand, asking follow up questions, avoiding interruptions, and using “feelings before fixing” when someone is hurting instead of rushing into advice.We also dig into what physical security really means, why many couples need connection long before sex starts, and how shame around sex, including shame rooted in religious messaging, can be unwound with curiosity, honesty, and support. If you want actionable relationship advice, marriage communication tools, and a healthier view of intimacy, you'll leave with a better blueprint and a lot of hope.Subscribe for more conversations like this, share the episode with a friend who'd appreciate it, and leave a review with your biggest takeaway.Send us Fan Mail Support the showThanks for listening!Check out this site for everthing to know about women's pleasure including video tutorials and great suggestions for bedroom time!!https://for-goodness-sake-omgyes.sjv.io/c/5059274/1463336/17315Take the happiness quiz from Oprah and Arthur Brooks here: https://arthurbrooks.com/buildNEW: Subscribe monthly: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1805181/support Email  questions/comments/feeback to tamara@straightfromthesourcesmouth.co Website: https://straightfromthesourcesmouthpod.net/Instagram: @fromthesourcesmouth_franktalkTwitter: @tamarapodcastYouTube and IG: Tamara_Schoon_comicWant to be a guest on Straight from the Source's Mouth: Frank Talk about Sex and Dating?

I sit down with relationship therapist Thomas Westenholtz to unpack why anxious daters so often get pulled into avoidant relationships that feel intoxicating at first and miserable later. We map the nervous system patterns behind chasing, criticism, and rumination, then lay out what secure love actually looks like in real dating behavior. • how the anxious-avoidant cycle forms and why it repeats old wounds • why criticism shows up as a desperate attempt to get through • using an internal “compass” across thoughts, emotions, and body signals • recognising persistent anxiety as a signal of inconsistency and confusion • early dating signs of secure attachment including clarity and follow-through • why calm can feel boring when you are used to chaos • trusting actions over words and avoiding fantasy-driven attachment If you love this episode, be sure to tell your friends about it and rate it as wellSend us Fan Mail Support the showThanks for listening!Check out this site for everthing to know about women's pleasure including video tutorials and great suggestions for bedroom time!!https://for-goodness-sake-omgyes.sjv.io/c/5059274/1463336/17315Take the happiness quiz from Oprah and Arthur Brooks here: https://arthurbrooks.com/buildNEW: Subscribe monthly: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1805181/support Email  questions/comments/feeback to tamara@straightfromthesourcesmouth.co Website: https://straightfromthesourcesmouthpod.net/Instagram: @fromthesourcesmouth_franktalkTwitter: @tamarapodcastYouTube and IG: Tamara_Schoon_comicWant to be a guest on Straight from the Source's Mouth: Frank Talk about Sex and Dating?

Retirement is often viewed as a financial milestone. But what if one of its greatest challenges has little to do with money? In this episode of Money & Meaning Perspectives, Jeff Bernier explores the transition from achievement to purpose, drawing on reflections from Chip Conley, founder of the Modern Elder Academy, and Arthur Brooks, Harvard professor and bestselling author of From Strength to Strength. Jeff examines why many successful people struggle more with identity than finances after leaving their careers, how our strengths evolve over time, and what it means to become an elder rather than simply grow older. Whether you're within 10 to 15 years of retirement or already retired, this episode offers a thoughtful perspective on the retirement transition, finding purpose after a successful career, and designing a meaningful next chapter. Topics Covered Chip Conley's imagined conversation with his 90-year-old self ● Why preserving past success can limit growth later in life ● Arthur Brooks' explanation of the Four Ashramas ● The student and householder stages of life ● The “striver's curse” and the limits of constant achievement ● Retirement as a developmental transition rather than only a financial one ● The difference between becoming older and becoming an elder ● Why identity can become a major challenge after leaving work ● Moving from being indispensable to becoming influential ● The shift from fluid intelligence to crystallized intelligence ● Teaching, mentoring, and sharing wisdom with younger generations ● Becoming a beginner again in retirement ● Redefining success through purpose, service, faith, wisdom, and relationships ● Using wealth as a tool for freedom rather than as a destination ● Questions to consider from the perspective of your 90-year-old self     Useful Links: Jeff Bernier on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeffberniercfp/ TandemGrowth Financial Advisors: https://www.tandemgrowth.com/   Editing and post-production work for this episode was provided by The Podcast Consultant (https://thepodcastconsultant.com)

In this episode, we unpack one of the most destructive forces in modern relationships: contempt.Drawing from Arthur Brooks' book Love Your Enemies, we explore why contempt is not just a communication problem—but an addictive pattern that is quietly eroding marriages, families, and our sense of belonging. We look at the difference between anger and contempt, the brain chemistry that makes contempt feel rewarding in the short term, and the research showing how costly it becomes over time.We also examine the loneliness epidemic, particularly among younger generations, and how a culture of contempt may be one of the hidden drivers behind our growing disconnection.This episode focuses on awareness. Next week, we'll get practical and ask a harder question: Is it possible to build a marriage and home largely free of contempt while still living in a culture that constantly invites us into it?In this episode, we discuss:Why contempt may be one of the most addictive relational patterns in our cultureThe Vietnam War heroin study and what it reveals about our need for real connectionThe difference between anger and contemptJohn Gottman's research on contempt as the strongest predictor of divorceThe physical and emotional costs of living with chronic contemptMotive attribution asymmetry and why political division feels so personalWhy so many of us hate the division… yet keep participating in itBook mentioned:Love Your Enemies by Arthur BrooksNext episode:We'll explore whether it's possible to keep contempt out of our closest relationships while still engaging with a culture that runs on it—and what that practice actually looks like.Get in TouchWebsite: MasterYourMarriage.usInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/masteryourmarriageFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/MasterYourMarriage/Mentioned in this episode:Research Interview RequestBefore we get back to the episode, I want to share something quick.

The phrase “aphrodisiac foods” can sound like a myth, a gimmick, or a menu cliché, so we wanted to get specific about what actually holds up and what doesn't. I'm joined by Amy Reily, an award-winning cookbook author and the authority behind Eat Something Sexy, to break down how food, desire, and sexual performance connect through real nutrition, food history, and the psychology of anticipation.We talk about why the FDA standard for proving libido claims is so strict, and why that doesn't mean the whole idea is nonsense. Amy explains a more useful framework: many foods associated with libido support are the same foods that support heart health, energy, and blood flow, which are key for sexual wellness. From oysters (hello zinc and lean protein) to cacao and dark chocolate (antioxidants plus a mild stimulant effect), we dig into what might be happening in the body and why “sexy” sometimes starts with feeling good physically.Then we get practical with romantic dinner ideas you can actually use.  We also cover playful connection builders like sharing an artichoke with garlic butter, when garlic is more friend than foe if you both eat it, and a beautiful non-alcohol drink idea like a pomegranate spritzer.We wrap with the most important romance tip of all: plan for your partner's tastes, not a fantasy menu you saw online. If you want more confidence, more energy, and a better shot at intimacy at the end of a long day, this one will give you a clear starting point.

Faith Driven Entrepreneur Podcast – Episode 383 Release Date: July 14, 2026   Why the Leadership Pipeline Is a Myth, and What Actually Works What if the most widely accepted strategy for developing leaders in your church or business is fundamentally broken? In this episode, Justin Forman sits down with Pastor David Ashcraft, former lead pastor of LCBC Church, which grew to 25 locations and 28,000 weekend attendees, now serving with the Global Leadership Network. David pulls no punches: the leadership pipeline is a myth. What replaces it is a culture, one that produces leaders from within, in real time. David draws on decades of experience scaling a church from 200 to 28,000 and overseeing 300 staff, 275 of whom were developed from within the congregation. His insights on leadership development, faith-work integration, and measuring fruit over process offer a roadmap for any pastor, entrepreneur, or marketplace leader serious about building something that lasts. Key Topics: Why the "leadership pipeline" model fails, and the culture-based alternative that actually works How LCBC grew from 200 to 28,000 people across 25 locations by developing leaders from within The "just-in-time training" principle: why proximity to application accelerates leader development The Global Leadership Summit: roughly 400,000 leaders across 1,120 sites worldwide, and why it bridges pastors and marketplace leaders Data vs. fruit: how to measure discipleship and leadership without falling into box-checking traps How business leaders and churches can learn from each other, and why ministry happens everywhere, not just on Sunday   Notable Quotes: “You can have the money, but if you don't have the leaders, you're not going anywhere.” — David Ashcraft   “The whole idea of the leadership pipeline is a myth. It tends to be almost more of a class or a course. If you go through enough courses, somehow you're going to come out on the other end a trained leader—and you've received training, but it doesn't make you a leader.” — David Ashcraft   “If you're a leader, people are going to be attracted to whoever the leader is.” — David Ashcraft   Guest Bio: David Ashcraft served for decades as the founding lead pastor of LCBC Church (Lives Changed By Christ) in Pennsylvania, scaling it from a church plant in 1991 to 25 locations serving 28,000 people every weekend, with 275 of 300 staff members developed from within the congregation. He now serves with the Global Leadership Network (GLN), which hosts the Global Leadership Summit, an annual event reaching approximately 400,000 leaders across 1,120 sites worldwide. GLN features speakers including Jim Collins, Andy Stanley, Craig Groeschel, Arthur Brooks, and Patrick Lencioni.

We talk with dating mentor Shelly Badayos about why most modern dating advice fails once you want something real, and how confidence starts with changing the patterns you bring into relationships. We dig into attachment styles, safety, respect, and the small cues that help you move forward without rushing or stalling. • shifting from performance-based dating advice to internal work that lasts • using attachment style theory to spot repeating patterns and triggers • somatic work and inner child healing to break people-pleasing cycles • understanding safety as a core need for many women • naming respect and being understood as key needs for many men • finding the right pace to avoid the friend zone or coming on too strong • reading open body language and engagement before advancing touch If you love this episode, be sure to tell your friends about it and rate it as well. Send us Fan MailSupport the showThanks for listening!Check out this site for everthing to know about women's pleasure including video tutorials and great suggestions for bedroom time!!https://for-goodness-sake-omgyes.sjv.io/c/5059274/1463336/17315Take the happiness quiz from Oprah and Arthur Brooks here: https://arthurbrooks.com/buildNEW: Subscribe monthly: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1805181/support Email  questions/comments/feeback to tamara@straightfromthesourcesmouth.co Website: https://straightfromthesourcesmouthpod.net/Instagram: @fromthesourcesmouth_franktalkTwitter: @tamarapodcastYouTube and IG: Tamara_Schoon_comicWant to be a guest on Straight from the Source's Mouth: Frank Talk about Sex and Dating?

Porn can be “occasional” and still run your life. If you've ever said “I'll stop” and then found yourself right back in the same loop, this conversation puts language to what's happening and gives you a grounded path forward.We're joined by GT Tan, a mental and sexual wellness coach and executive reboot strategist, to talk about porn addiction recovery in a way that goes beyond shame and willpower. We unpack what addiction really means when frequency varies, why porn is often a symptom of something deeper, and how stress, anxiety, loneliness, and unresolved pain can turn porn into a default coping tool. GT also explains porn-induced erectile dysfunction (PIED), including how ED can show up as partial or inconsistent erections, and why it matters to look at the full picture, from relationship dynamics to bloodwork, hormones, sleep, and diet.From there we get practical: identifying triggers, setting boundaries in a culture where sexual content is everywhere, and building long-term sobriety rather than short-term abstinence. We also touch on dating and intimacy, including why authenticity matters and why rejection can be a major relapse trigger if you don't have a solid foundation first.If you want a healthier relationship with sex, confidence, and connection, listen through and then subscribe, share the episode with a friend, and leave a quick review so more people can find it.Send us Fan Mail Support the showThanks for listening!Check out this site for everthing to know about women's pleasure including video tutorials and great suggestions for bedroom time!!https://for-goodness-sake-omgyes.sjv.io/c/5059274/1463336/17315Take the happiness quiz from Oprah and Arthur Brooks here: https://arthurbrooks.com/buildNEW: Subscribe monthly: https://www.buzzsprout.com/1805181/support Email  questions/comments/feeback to tamara@straightfromthesourcesmouth.co Website: https://straightfromthesourcesmouthpod.net/Instagram: @fromthesourcesmouth_franktalkTwitter: @tamarapodcastYouTube and IG: Tamara_Schoon_comicWant to be a guest on Straight from the Source's Mouth: Frank Talk about Sex and Dating?

Arthur Brooks is a social scientist, professor at Harvard University, and an author. Why do some people feel lost while others seem deeply fulfilled? When life feels empty, it's often not because you're missing success, money, or comfort; it's because you're missing meaning. So how do you find purpose? How do you create a life that feels worth living? And what does meaning look like in a world where so much feels fake?
