Send us Fan MailWhat if the most generous thing you could do for every relationship in your life is to come back to yourself first? This week I'm joined by Karen Green, therapist, professor, and creator of Conscious Care Cards, for a deeply honest conversation about attachment wounds, nervous system regulation, and why healing yourself changes everything around you.Karen has spent her career working with families, and what she keeps finding is the same truth at the centre of it all;  that the quality of your inner world determines the quality of every relationship you have. And that it is never too late to do that work.In this episode, we talk about:Why attachment trauma is not a private family issue but a public health issue and why it starts with youThe fractures we carry from childhood and how they quietly shape every relationship we step into as adultsWhy one attuned, present relationship can rewire everything — and why it is never too late to experience thatThe neurobiology of "we": how a regulated nervous system is the foundation of every authentic connectionMoving from sympathetic chaos to parasympathetic presence and why connection simply cannot happen in survival modeReparenting yourself: meeting your own unmet needs so you can stop running on emptyWhy your triggers are not problems to fix but invitations to finally tend to the part of you that was never heldThe research-backed truth that one person, even for 45 minutes, can change the trajectory of a lifeKaren's work is a quiet reminder that showing up whole for the people you love begins with showing up whole for yourself and that the path back is simpler than you think.Karen A.

If you can make conversation, you can make your own luck.Good communication isn't passive. And good luck, says Tina Seelig, is the same. There's “what the world gives us,” and then there's “how we respond to it.”Seelig is executive director of the Knight-Hennessy Scholars Program at Stanford University and author of What I Wish I Knew About Luck. For her, good fortune doesn't find us, we find it. “Opportunities for lucky things to happen are ubiquitous. But they're invisible and most people don't see them,” she says. In the same way that communication requires active listening, making our own luck requires presence to the people and possibilities that come our way.In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Seelig and host Matt Abrahams explore how communication creates luck. From curious listening to resolving the conflicts that block opportunity, Seelig offers practical ways to respond to what life offers — and turn everyday interactions into the foundation for good fortune.To listen to the extended Deep Thinks version of this episode, please visit FasterSmarter.io/premium.Episode Reference Links:Tina SeeligTina's Book: What I Wish I Knew About LuckEp.111 Rethinks: How to Spark Creativity in Your CommunicationEp.159 Earn Your Audience: You Can't Lead If No One's Listening Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (02:46) - Luck vs. Fortune (03:55) - The Idea of Making Luck (04:40) - Building Your Luck Framework (05:49) - Listening Creates Opportunity (06:56) - Focus on Others (09:57) - Staying Connected to Others (11:09) - Appreciation as a Habit (12:04) - How Conflict Blocks Luck (13:35) - Apologies Create Opportunity (14:33) - Ask, Don't Assume (16:26) - Communicating for Your Audience (18:13) - Prepare Your Stories (21:46) - The Final Three Questions (26:16) - Conclusion ********Thank you to our sponsors.  These partnerships support the ongoing production of the podcast, allowing us to bring it to you at no cost.Strawberry.me.

In this episode, I was lucky enough to interview Ryan Johnson, the CTO and VP of Engineering at Seek.Growing up on a farm in Central California, Ryan learned early lessons about hard work, authenticity, and service—values that later guided him through the fast-moving world of startups and engineering leadership. From working on the early product team at Livescribe to launching a web development agency by literally walking door-to-door along Newbury Street, Ryan reflects on how genuine relationships—not aggressive sales tactics—were the foundation of landing his very first customers.Ryan also dives into the evolution of his career, from building agencies and consulting with major financial institutions to co-founding companies in the fintech and analytics space. Now serving as CTO of Seek, he discusses how engineering culture, curiosity, and collaboration shape better products—and why empowering engineers to ask “invasive” questions often leads to stronger outcomes. Ryan shares insights on partnerships, scaling engineering teams responsibly, and why serving customers and colleagues with authenticity remains the most powerful strategy in business.Learn how Ryan Johnson blends engineering culture, leadership, and real human connection in this episode of The First Customer!Guest Info:Seekhttps://seekinsights.com/Ryan Johnson's LinkedInhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/ryancharlesjohnson/Connect with Jay on LinkedInhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/jayaigner/The First Customer Youtube Channelhttps://www.youtube.com/@thefirstcustomerpodcastThe First Customer podcast websitehttps://www.firstcustomerpodcast.comFollow The First Customer on LinkedInhttp://www.linkedin.com/company/the-first-customer-podcast/

Jesse Lipson, Founder and CEO of Levitate, focuses on using AI to help providers enhance patient-provider communication and develop and maintain personal, authentic connections with patients. Patient expectations are changing due to AI, and patients now expect more responsive, personalized messaging from doctors. This service-as-software can support busy providers in developing and executing a communication strategy at scale to build their practices and strengthen relationships with patients. Jesse explains, "My vision was to help what I call relationship-based businesses. I would consider many types of healthcare practices to fall into that category, and to do a better job of keeping in touch with their patients in a more personal, authentic way at scale. And so I think the challenge is we all know the value of the simple things like remembering kids' names, pets' names, spouse names, hobbies, and reaching out and keeping in touch in a thoughtful way on a regular basis. But it's very hard to do that at scale, and things kind of slip through the cracks." "When it comes to patient care itself, you want to be that person who, when you do get to spend a little bit of time with a patient, you are remembering things about them more on a human level rather than just in and out on the clinical level. Both because that provides a good patient experience, and I think that's what a lot of providers are motivated to do when they get into the field. But that context can also be helpful in providing a high level of care, in knowing and remembering things, and in deepening that personal relationship. So that was our goal: not to use AI as an automated replacement for that communication between providers and patients, but to use it to help them do a better job of that personal, authentic communication."   #Levitate #PatientEmpowerment #PatientExperience #PatientCenteredCare #HealthTech #HealthcareTechnology #RelationshipMarketing #PersonalizationAtScale #AIinHealthcare #CustomerExperience #ServiceAsSoftware #HealthTech #PatientCommunication #AIinHealthcare #HealthcareInnovation #DigitalHealth #PatientEngagement #HIPAA #PatientCare Levitate.ai Download the transcript here

Welcome to Faith Church Online! As we conclude our teachings on the basics of our faith, study John 15 in abiding with Christ through authentic relationship. This means we stay connected to the source of life, strength and purpose. And as we grow in Christ we then share Him with others. We hope this serves you well! 

We are more connected than ever, yet loneliness continues to rise. In this deeply honest conversation, Keith Spurgin shares why visibility is not the same as being known, how disconnection silently shapes our identity, and what it takes to move relationships from lifeless to vibrant.Keith opens up about his own journey from internal disconnection to meaningful connection, revealing the subtle ways we tolerate relational emptiness while our souls quietly starve. Together, we explore leadership, vulnerability, emotional health, and why relational fitness matters just as much as physical fitness.This episode is an invitation to slow down, tell the truth, and take the small courageous steps that lead to genuine connection.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Connection and Disconnection04:24 Understanding the Nature of Disconnection09:18 The Illusion of Digital Connection11:56 The Importance of Self-Leadership16:23 Signs of a Dying Relationship21:31 Tolerating Toxic Behaviors26:42 Personal Journey of Disconnection33:16 The Impact of Relational Health38:12 Creating Authentic Connections in Families and Churches42:40 Practical Steps to Build Connections45:59 Living a Truly Connected LifeEpisode TakeawaysWe are more technologically connected than ever, yet more relationally disconnectedReal relationships require risk, honesty, and vulnerabilityPeople admire accomplishments but connect through shared strugglesTolerating emotional neglect quietly erodes the soulPain often becomes the doorway to transformationThe quality of life is directly tied to the quality of relationshipsForgiveness is essential for healing and reconnectionAuthentic leadership creates space for authentic relationshipsAbout Keith SpurginKeith Spurgin is an author, international speaker, leadership coach, and President of Growth Resourcing Group, an organisation dedicated to helping leaders, pastors, and business owners lead with clarity, courage, and connection.He is the founder of New Hope Church in Wylie, Texas, and the author of Unknown: Finding Connection in a Disconnected World.

KeywordsText Driven Ministries, Digital Church, Authentic Relationships, Community, Evangelism, Spiritual Growth, Biblical Community, Church Gathering, Technology and Faith, Christian LifeSummaryIn this episode of the Text Driven Podcast, Timothy Pigg discusses the concept of the Digital Church and its implications for authentic Christian community. He emphasizes the importance of in-person gatherings for spiritual growth and the dangers of relying solely on digital connections. Pigg argues that true community involves shared experiences, relationships, and accountability, which cannot be replicated through online platforms. He encourages listeners to engage with their local churches and foster genuine relationships to fulfill their spiritual needs.TakeawaysTechnology can connect us, but only a gathered community can provide spiritual formation.The digital church mimics community without forming authentic relationships.Biblical community is about sharing life together, not just consuming content.Spiritual growth happens in close proximity to other believers.The church is called the body of Christ, and we need each other to grow.Online church makes it easy to consume without contributing.Each person in the church has a role to play in the community.Christianity is meant to be lived out, not just downloaded.If no one notices your absence, you may not be truly engaged in community.We need to recapture a biblical vision for community.Sound bites"Technology has made us more connected than ever.""The digital church is a lie. It's an illusion.""The early church shared life, not just content."Chapters00:00 Introduction to Text Driven Ministries05:57 Rediscovering Authentic Relationships in Church

As we step into a new year, I decided to begin with something close to my heart — connection. This solo episode is all about how we can start 2026 by building and strengthening R.E.A.L. relationships: those built on trust, appreciation, and genuine human care.A personal story from my husband's recent surgery reminded me that kindness and connection show up in unexpected ways, and that people remember how we make them feel. From that experience grew this reflection on the R.E.A.L. Connection System, the framework I teach to help people and businesses stay connected in meaningful ways:Refresh. Engage. Appreciate. Leverage.In this episode, I walk through each of these pillars and how they show up in real life, from refreshing your LinkedIn presence, to engaging intentionally online and offline, to showing appreciation in ways that leave a lasting impression.Key TakeawaysRefresh your presence so your online identity reflects who you are today, not who you were years ago.Engage with intention — show up where your people are and participate meaningfully.Appreciate authentically — small gestures can create emotional anchors that last for years.Leverage relationships — trust creates opportunity, and every introduction or referral begins with connection.Choose one pillar to focus on this year — start simple and stay consistent.When you build your business from a place of genuine care, everything else unfolds more naturally.I'd love to hear how you're applying the R.E.A.L. principles in your business. Connect with me and share one small way you're refreshing, engaging, appreciating, or leveraging relationships this month and if you'd like to explore how to implement the R.E.A.L. Connection System in your business, please reach out.

What happens when you stop trying to be “good” and start listening to your body? In this intimate and eye-opening conversation, Aideen welcomes back empowerment coach Julie Vander Meulen to explore the hidden rules of Good Girl Syndrome—how it frays our nervous systems, shapes our relationships, and quietly erodes our joy.Through real stories and practical, compassionate tools, Julie shares how a single word like“ouch” can soften conflict, why pausing to feel fear can change the entire direction of a conversation, and how circling back later can repair moments where panic once shut everything down. Together, we dig into the deeper roots: why so many of us confuse praise with love, why criticism can feel like exile, and how gentle self-acceptance practices can rebuild inner safety.Julie offers grounded rituals for reclaiming your worth: mirror moments, affectionate self-talk, and giving yourself rest without permission slips. We challenge achievement as the measure of value and offer a truer anchor: your essence is worthy by existing. From that truth, your voice softens, your boundaries strengthen, and connection becomes a place of honesty rather than performance.And then there's joy. Joy as a practice, not a prize. If happiness feels far away, begin with a memory of laughter and let your body remember. Reclaim small delights you once dismissed as unproductive: music that moves you, simple meals, playful imitation. In a world that hurts, joy isn't denial—it's fuel. When we allow ourselves to feel fully and show up fully, we become safer for each other.If this conversation resonates, subscribe, share it with someone who needs permission to be imperfect, and leave a review so more people can find their way back to their own voice. Your voice matters here.Support the showThanks for listening! To book a free consultation with Aideen visit https://www.confidenceinsinging.com/contact/

Have you ever wondered whether your biggest roadblock is not the idea itself, but the way people see you before you ever open your mouth? This week, we take a very human turn on the Innovation Storytellers Show as I sit down with Lirone Glikman, CEO, global business development leader, and the author behind The Super Connectors Playbook.  Lirone has spent two decades helping people understand something many of us overlook. Your brand is already setting the tone for every meeting, every pitch, and every moment when you try to move an innovation forward. Our conversation moves from the deeply personal to the highly practical. Lirone shares how she teaches leaders to understand the strengths and values that truly define them, how to find the gap between who you believe you are and how others read you, and why authenticity paired with strategy is the foundation for any successful relationship at work.  My guest explains her six-pillar approach to becoming a super connector, and shows how innovators can use these principles to navigate corporate silos, involve the right allies early, and communicate with greater clarity and presence. Her stories bring workplace dynamics to life, from collaborating with overloaded teams to protecting your ideas in rooms where voices can be overshadowed. We also talk about the future. Lirone offers a candid view on how AI is reshaping personal branding, how to use these tools without losing your human signature, and why relationships remain the real currency inside complex organisations. For listeners working in innovation, product, or transformation roles, this conversation provides the language to understand your place in the system and the practical steps to raise your visibility intentionally. So the question becomes, what story is your brand telling before you even enter the room, and how ready are you to shape it with purpose?

Most of us are reluctant to be vulnerable with others. We view our flaws and mistakes as faults, and weaknesses. We don't want to be ignored, or dismissed. We fear rejection. Yet, perfect love – God's love for us, in us and through us – removes fear. We are freed to be real, authentic people who pursue God and others. People need to know that are loved – right where they are. Right now. Only by being honest and real, will others feel safe and be willing to risk being loved, trusting love, accepting love.

Mack Story explores the essential art of building rapport as the gateway to trust in blue-collar leadership. This episode equips listeners with actionable strategies to connect authentically, strengthen teams, and lead with influence rooted in care.Drawing from Christian Simpson's insight, "When building rapport, we are conveying to others, 'I'm like you, so it's okay for you to like me,'" Mack explains how relating to others—through shared language, actions, and appearance—creates safety and openness.However, Mack stresses that true rapport begins with sincere intent and unconditional care for the other person.In the demanding world of blue-collar work, where quick connections can make or break teams, Mack shares how genuine concern transcends superficial differences, allowing leaders to foster deep, instant bonds that people feel immediately.Mack delves into practical ways to build trust through consistent "deposits," from simple gestures like calling someone by name or offering a pat on the back, to larger acts like believing in a teammate's potential or providing real help in tough times.Mack warns against manipulative intent, emphasizing that people intuitively sense when care is authentic versus self-serving.For blue-collar leaders, Mack outlines how to make ongoing trust deposits without expecting withdrawals, creating resilient relationships that withstand inevitable setbacks.

*Why isn't “promoting vocations” enough to help young people discover God's call? * Because so many can't even hear Him right now. Their faith feels distant, the noise of the world is loud, and what they crave most isn't another program—it's a real encounter with Jesus and people who truly care. In this episode, I talk with Fr. Scott Schilmoeller, Vocations Director for the Archdiocese of Omaha, about what it takes to awaken a generation to God's voice. We don't need to push vocations—we need to till the soil: to build trust, community, and spaces where faith can take root again. If your heart breaks for the young Church and you long to see them come alive in their calling, this episode is for you.
