In this special Transforming Trauma series, we are exploring the “origin stories” of influential therapists. These episodes offer a rare opportunity to peek behind the curtain and understand what inspired these therapists to pursue healing work - and how they have brought their life experiences into their professional work, impacting and inspiring many people along the way. By learning from seasoned master therapists who openly share their professional journeys, as well as the painful personal life lessons along the way, we gain valuable insights to support our own growth, both professionally and personally. On this episode of Transforming Trauma, host Emily Ruth welcomes back Marcia Black, a licensed psychologist, faculty member at the Complex Trauma Training Center (CTTC), and a trainer and master therapist in the NeuroAffective Relational Model® (NARM®). Marcia shares defining moments from her remarkable 40+ year career and reminiscences about the generous mentors who have shaped her professional life. The pair also explore the role that curiosity plays in forming meaningful relationships with clients, colleagues, and the broader professional community.

When our loved ones die and leave their physical bodies, where do they go, and what do they actually do there? In this episode of Infinite Life, Infinite Wisdom, Susan Grau takes us on a fascinating journey into the afterlife, answering those big questions many of us have about what happens when we leave our physical bodies. She explains that as we transition, we may feel things like moving through a warm tunnel or being pulled toward a bright light. There's no fear, just peace and comfort. It's almost like a soothing experience that's uniquely tailored to each of us. Susan dives into the idea of a "life review," where we get to reflect on our actions, but without judgment. It's all about learning, not punishment. She also talks about the concept of a soul family, those we're deeply connected to, both in this life and beyond. And then there are the guides and higher beings, like angels, who are there to support us through the process. She also touches on how our souls continue to grow and evolve, even after we pass on. Whether it's experiencing something new or revisiting old lessons, there's always more to learn. The episode wraps up with a beautiful reminder that we're never truly alone, even after we cross over. It's all about love, connection, and the ongoing journey of our souls.

I think we'd probably all agree that digital distraction is at an all time high. News from around the world is at our fingertips at a moment's notice. We get real-time updates on, well, everything. We can play any sort of game imaginable anywhere in the world and we can post our own thoughts and musings for anybody to see. Smartphones are truly an incredible innovation, but they come with a cost. Instead of engaging with the world right around us, we engage in a digital world filled with avatars and algorithms. Instead of looking up to God or out to the people directly in front of us, we look down into the screen of a metal rectangle. This past weekend at Saddleback, Pastor Darren Whitehead spoke on his book, The Digital Fast. Darren was kind enough to join this podcast to follow-up on his message. In this conversation we talk about how to fill the gaps in our time if not on our phones, spiritual practices and rhythms, reading the Bible, the difference between Australians and Americans, the calling of a generation to re-engage in the spiritual, and much more.Doable Discipleship is a Saddleback Church podcast produced and hosted by Jason Wieland. It premiered in 2017 and now offers more than 400 episodes.

Affairs grab our attention. Whether it's someone in the news or a friend of a friend, we tune in, pass judgement, or quietly reflect on our own relationships. But what is it that makes cheating stories so captivating?In this episode, I talk about why we care so much about other people's affairs. I explore how unmet needs, identity, and longing can show up in relationships. I unpack what betrayal can do to a person's sense of self, why fantasy can feel easier than reality, and why some couples do try to rebuild after infidelity.This is not about sensationalism or blame. It's a real conversation about what I see in the therapy room and what can help people make sense of something painful and complicated.What I cover in this episodeWhy cheating stories hook us, even when they're not oursHow social referencing plays into our opinions on infidelityWhat betrayal can do to trust, identity, and mental healthThe messiness of defining cheating in relationshipsHow unmet needs and longing can fuel emotional or physical affairsWhat it can look like to recover as an individualWhat's involved in repairing a relationship after an affairWhy not all couples stay togetherWhat happens when a relationship starts as an affairThe impact of perpetual problems in relationships (Gottman research: 69 percent of issues are ongoing)Why switching partners doesn't always solve core differencesWhat couples need to rebuild trust and connectionReferenced in this episode

Have you looked up the word “Mara” just to be met with about 10 different definitions on what it means? In this podcast, Bhante Sathi sheds some light on the concept of our own “Mara” and how we can learn from it. Ultimately, living and being friendly with Mara means accepting life's difficulties with awareness, compassion, and not letting attachments or emotional reactions control us.

In an era where technology is intertwined with our daily lives, fraudsters are continually devising new strategies to steal sensitive information from unsuspecting individuals. Among their most insidious tactics is phishing—a deceptive practice designed to manipulate you into divulging your personal information without your awareness. Learn more about KnowBe4 Awareness Check out TCU University for financial education tips and resources! Follow us on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter! Learn more about Triangle Credit Union Transcript: Welcome to Money Tip Tuesday, brought to you by the Making Money Personal podcast! Today, we're sharing crucial insights inspired by an article from KnowBe4 Security Awareness and Training Solutions. Security Tips: How to Detect Phishing Emails As phishing activities increasingly proliferate, remaining vigilant is of paramount importance. Here are some key indicators to scrutinize before you take any action on an email: Is it Expected? - Take a moment to consider whether you were anticipating this email. If it appeared unexpectedly, exercise caution as it may not be legitimate. Is it Reasonable? - Context matters. Ask yourself whether it makes sense for you to receive this type of correspondence. If the content feels out of place or irrelevant, it's wise to be skeptical. Are There Grammatical Errors? - Pay close attention to the language used in the email. Messages that claim to be from established companies often contain spelling mistakes or poor grammar—this is frequently a clear warning sign of a phishing attempt. Does It Contain a Link? - Always hover your mouse over links without clicking to verify their authenticity. For example, if an email claims to be from emailaddress@google.com but the link leads to a suspicious domain like website.yahoo.com, you're facing a significant red flag. Does It Have an Attachment? - Be cautious about opening attachments, as they might harbor malicious programs disguised as harmless files. It's best to avoid clicking on attachments from unfamiliar sources. Does It Create a Sense of Urgency? - A common tactic among phishing emails is to instill a sense of panic, prompting you to act quickly. They may claim to be from a high-ranking official or require immediate attention. Resist the urge to respond hastily—take a moment to assess and critically evaluate the situation to protect yourself from potential phishing attempts. Stay vigilant and take proactive steps to safeguard your personal information! If there are any other tips or topics you'd like us to cover, let us know at tcupodcast@trianglecu.org.

How do we truly change? What brings spiritual and emotional transformation? Psalm 3 takes a particular historical event associated with David, and from it draws an individual lament that is for the everyday Israelite in which he or she may involve themselves with the rest of the people of God for the purpose of expressing and shaping their emotions. We are truly changed when our identity is shaped by attaching to God by looking to Him for the provision of all our needs.

Cyd and Geoff Holsclaw join the podcast for a deep conversation on spiritual formation, attachment theory, and why so many of us feel stuck in our faith. Drawing from their work in neuroscience, pastoral care, and discipleship, they unpack how our early relational patterns shape the way we experience God and how we can begin to heal. We explore the four “landscapes of the soul” (the pasture, jungle, desert, and war zone), how spiritual practices like silence, Bible study, and joy impact us differently depending on where we're starting from, and how to integrate intimacy and obedience in a holistic journey with God. This episode invites us to move beyond a one-size-fits-all model of discipleship and embrace a more embodied, relational, and compassionate approach to following Jesus.Geoff Holsclaw (PhD) is cohost of the Embodied Faith podcast, which seeks a neuroscience-informed spiritual formation. He is also an affiliate professor of theology at Northern Seminary (Lisle, Illinois) and a pastor at Vineyard North in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Geoff is author of several books, most recently Does God Really Like Me? Discovering the God Who Wants to Be With Us.Cyd is an author, spiritual director, and pastor. She is also a trauma-informed, Jesus-centered, professional certified coach (PCC) focused on embodied practices and building a secure attachment to God. She co-hosts the Embodied Faith podcast, offering a neuroscience-informed spiritual formation. And she is the co-author of Does God Really Like Me?

In this week's show Lian is joined by Serdar Hararovich. Serdar is a Relationship & Secure Attachment Specialist offering integrative, attachment-based coaching and healing. He supports both men and women to heal early attachment wounds, establish inner security, reclaim their deepest self, and cultivate the emotional skills required for deep, soulful, and secure love. Serdar works with a wide variety of individuals - including, but not limited to, therapists, relationship coaches, and other practitioners. The common thread among his clients is a deep desire to go beyond the surface - people tired of quick-fix techniques and oversimplified approaches to healing. Those ready to do the kind of work that awakens their deepest potential - allowing them to master the art of true intimacy and experience the kind of love that transforms everything. In this episode, Lian and Serdar explore the roots of how we relate, beginning with the early wounds that shape our adult relationships. Serdar shares his own story of growing up with emotional neglect, the drinking and disconnection that followed, and the practical and healing work that allowed him to form deeper, more secure relationships. Together, they look at the role of corrective experiences in healing attachment wounds, and how both inner work and relational skill-building are essential for intimacy. They discuss the dynamic between the masculine and feminine in healing, and the different experiences that can arise when working with male or female facilitators. From there, the conversation opens into the complex terrain of polarity teachings, how these can support or distort healing, and what happens when identity becomes performative rather than rooted in authenticity. Throughout the conversation, Lian and Serdar invite reflection on what it truly means to heal, to relate with curiosity, and to understand the impact of gendered conditioning without becoming confined by it. This is a nuanced and compassionate conversation that offers both clarity and challenge. We'd love to know what YOU think about this week's show. Let's carry on the conversation… please leave a comment wherever you are listening or in any of our other spaces to engage. What you'll learn from this episode: Healing requires both inner work and relational skill-building. It's not enough to simply know the theory… we need lived experiences that re-pattern our nervous systems. Curiosity is one of the core qualities of secure attachment. When we stop assuming and start asking, intimacy becomes possible. Polarity teachings can offer insight, but without healing first, they risk deepening the mask. The real work is becoming someone who can relate with truth, not performance.

Start Your Transformation Now In this episode of the Jim Fortin Podcast, Jim explores what it really means to experience freedom and independence—not just in the external world, but within ourselves. Building on his previous discussion about “seniority,” he reveals how true liberation comes from recognizing your spiritual authority, not from wealth, status, or nationality. If you've been seeking more ease in your finances, health, or life path, Jim makes a compelling case that reclaiming your seniority is the missing key. Diving deeper, Jim challenges cultural narratives around patriotism, belief systems, and identity that often mask as freedom but actually limit us. He unpacks how our upbringing and societal conditioning cause us to give away our power, and why managing your energy and attention is crucial for regaining it. With personal stories—including a raw account of his 39-month house build—and wisdom from his mentor Don Javier, this episode offers both spiritual insight and practical reflection on how to reclaim the independence we all crave. This episode is your wake-up call to stop seeking freedom externally and start remembering who you already are: a powerful soul with built-in seniority. If you're ready to step into true sovereignty, this is a must-listen. What You'll Discover in This Episode: Why We're All Born With Seniority (02:49) You don't have to earn freedom—you came into this life with cosmic power already built in. How Socialization and Domestication Strip Our Power (05:46) From childhood conditioning to national identity, we unknowingly give away our spiritual authority. Your Life is the Output of How You Manage Your Energy (09:11) Jim compares your life to a factory—what you create reflects how well you manage your seniority. A Personal Lesson: When Chaos Hijacked Jim's Power (11:59) Jim shares how his house-building process derailed his energy—and what brought him back on track. Freedom Begins With Attention, Not Action (15:13) Managing your attention in the 3D world is the gateway to reclaiming inner power. How Belief Systems and Patriotism Replace Seniority (21:04) Jim explains how societal labels and even religion can brand us, masking our true spiritual freedom. A Spiritual Person Asks Nothing of No One (26:53) What Don Javier taught Jim about sovereignty, asking Source—not society—for support. The Hidden Cost of Attachment (29:00) Freedom also means releasing the ego's grip—because what you cling to, controls you. Discovering Your True Power as Soul (32:00) Jim closes with a powerful invitation: Know yourself as soul, and you'll know true freedom. Listen, apply, and enjoy! Transformational Takeaway Your true independence isn't found in your passport, your bank account, or your job title. It's in your seniority—your deep knowing that you are soul, Source, and creator. When you stop letting beliefs, fears, and attachments define you, you'll remember the truth: you are free because you are. Let go of the need to control, release the illusions of security, and return to the inner sovereignty that was never lost—only forgotten. Freedom isn't out there. It's already within you.

“Look up into the heavens. Who created all the stars? He brings them out like an army, one after another, calling each by its name. Because of his great power and incomparable strength, not a single one is missing. O Jacob, how can you say the Lord does not see your troubles? O Israel, how can you say God ignores your rights? Have you never heard? Have you never understood? The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of all the earth.” Isaiah 40:26-28As we enter the book of Isaiah, we are moving from the wisdom literature into the prophets. In many ways it's a good thing that Isaiah is the first of the major prophets we read because it's the most accessible. Isaiah paints a portrait, not just of Israelite history, but of the God who is above it all - the God who is both creator and master of all things, but also close, loving and kind. Isaiah is a long book coming in at 66 chapters, but it is rich with history, the character of God, and hope for the savior that is to come. To help us navigate the book of Isaiah is Dr. Andrew Abernethy Professor of Old Testament at Wheaton College and author of not one, not two, but three books on Isaiah.

On occasion of Asalha Full Moon, Ajahn Dhammasiha offers reflections on the Four Noble Truths.Whenever we experience pain and disappointment; when we feel hurt, offended, depressed, upset; we usually search for some EXTERNAL cause for all this suffering. Maybe we come to the conclusion that our boss, or our mother in law, or our spouse, or the kids, or the politicians and those in power are to blame for the fact that we are hurting. Or else it's the weather; or some sickness, some virus; or perhaps the mozzies or this or that... This conclusion is not necessarily wrong. We may even be able to eliminate some specific suffering we experience by changing or manipulating the behaviour of the people that cause us harm. However, this approach will never get us out of suffering completely: First of all, often we don't have the power to change the persons that cause us pain. There are so many external causes of our suffering that are completely outside of our control. Secondly, even if we can change one person, then someone else will come along and do things we don't like. Removing external causes will only give us a short break, it never removes suffering permanently.Instead, the Buddha looked at the INTERNAL causes of suffering, namely craving, attachment, clinging, delusion of ownership, ignorance and so on. This approach has two huge advantages:First, as it's internal, we actually have control over it - it may not be easy to abandon craving and attachment, but at least it's possible.Secondly, once we get rid of craving and attachment completely, all suffering is gone as well; and even better, it can never come back, we've found a permanent solution

ICYMI, this episode aired in spring of 2025 and OHHH BOY did it fire a lot of you up! In this episode, I had an enlightening conversation with Erica Komisar, a psychoanalyst and author of Being There: Why Prioritizing Motherhood in the First Three Years Matters. Erica shared her extensive research on the critical importance of a mother's physical and emotional presence in the early years of a child's life. We discussed the myths surrounding "quality time," the detrimental effects of daycare, and the cultural shifts that have led parents to prioritize careers over their children. Erika emphasized the unique roles of mothers and fathers, the long-term impact of early childhood experiences, and offered practical advice for parents who may have made common mistakes. This episode is a deep dive into understanding how to raise emotionally resilient and well-adjusted children in today's fast-paced world.Timestamps:00:00:00 - Introduction to Erika Komisar00:01:36 - Lies About Raising Babies00:08:05 - The Stress of Modern Parenting00:40:08 - Issues with Daycare00:42:49 - ADHD and Fear00:43:08 - Reversing ADHDMY Go Big Podcasting Courses Are Here!

Originally Released July 4 2023Saddleback Church Content Development Pastor Jason Wieland is joined by author, teacher, and spoken word artist Hosanna Wong for a conversation around identity in Christ and how to adopt the rhythms of Jesus. One of the most fundamental questions of life is Who Am I? and, in Christian circles, we are often rushed to answer that our identity is in Christ. But how do we really find out what this means and, even when we do feel connected to Jesus, how do we keep that connection? This conversation addresses these questions and dives deep into looking at four rhythms or spiritual disciplines that you can begin adopting in your own life. Hosanna Wong is an international speaker, best-selling author and spoken word artist helping everyday people know Jesus for real. Widely known for her spoken word piece, "I Have A New Name," Hosanna shares in churches, conferences, prisons, and other events around the world, reaching across various denominations, backgrounds and cultures.Born and raised in an urban ministry on the streets of San Francisco, Hosanna later packed her life into suitcases and traveled to churches and other ministries throughout the United States to share about Jesus through spoken word poetry. During those years without a permanent home, she began speaking and creating resources to serve the local and global Church.Hosanna currently travels and speaks year-round, and serves on teaching teams at churches throughout the United States. She and her husband, Guy serve together in various ministries equipping people with tools to share the gospel of Jesus in today's world.Hosanna is the best-selling author of How (Not) to Save the World and You Are More Than You've Been Told.

Una Archer joins me for a thoughtful conversation about how to help children feel safe, secure, and resilient in the face of their parents' separation or divorce. Together we explore: Why there's no one-size-fits-all approach to separation, even among siblings, and why tuning into each child's unique needs matters. What the Circle of Security framework is and how it can be used to support children's attachment during major family transitions. The three core emotional needs that children rely on to feel secure, and how parents can meet these needs in everyday moments (check the show notes for a helpful visual!). How to separate your own trauma and fears from your child's experience so you can truly see and respond to them without projection. Why allowing more time and slowness during transitions isn't a setback, but an important part of healing and connection. The power of rupture and repair in relationships and practical ways parents can engage in repair after conflict or misunderstanding. How different family structures after separation—sometimes two distinct family systems—can be healthy depending on what your family needs. Navigating the challenges of co-parenting, including managing handoffs and stepping back when it's not your parenting time. If you're looking for compassionate, practical guidance on fostering secure attachment for your children through big changes, this conversation is full of insights and tools you won't want to miss!

What happens when our lived experience doesn't align with what we believe about God? How do we hold on to faith when trauma, suffering, or loss shatters our spiritual foundation? Author and counselor Michael Cusick understands this tension intimately. As a survivor of childhood abuse, Michael found himself caught in self-destructive cycles that threatened his soul and relationships. Yet through his own healing journey, he discovered the profound impact our personal stories have on our attachment to God — and how restoring that attachment can transform our lives. Now, through his intensive counseling work at Restoring the Soul and in his new book, **Sacred Attachment: Escaping Spiritual Exhaustion and Trusting in Divine Love**, Michael helps others reconnect with a God who is both safe and loving — even in the wake of deep wounds.In this thoughtful conversation, Davey and Michael talk about what to do when your relationship with God feels fractured, why attachment is so important spiritually speaking, and why it seems like so many leaders are falling in our generation. If you've struggled in your relationship with God because of the pain you have experienced, this episode is an invitation to begin healing, to rebuild trust, and to rediscover a sacred attachment with the One who will never let us go.
