On this week’s episode of The Art of Living Big, Betsy shares some big news and while doing so is alerted to her reflex to downplay this big news to make it smaller. Are you editing your feelings? Are you minimizing your accomplishments to seem more comfortable around others? Betsy shares steps to recognize when we are doing this and advises us how we can turn it around. Also, stay tuned near the end for the announcement of the 2nd retreat! Transcript:  Welcome to The Art of Living Big, where we explore how to live intentionally and with more joy. I’m Betsy Pake, your host, master, coach, and creator of the Navigate Method. Here to help you listen in to your true desires, elevate your standards, and live life to the fullest. Now, let’s go live big. Hi, everybody. Welcome to the show today. I have had a really busy week. Tomorrow… Well, I’m recording this on a Wednesday. You guys’ll hear it on Thursday. And tomorrow I’m gonna be on NBC. So I did this last year, and I’m recording a couple episodes, doing something live for them for their noontime show. You know how, how cities have, like, their local Atlanta station and then they have, like, a little local show? Whatever. It’s still very exciting, and I’m trying to pick out my outfits, so, that’s my big personal update that I’m doing. But I, I have had this conversation, and in fact, I’ve had this same conversation a couple times with a couple different friends, and I think it kinda came up initially because we were talking about this NBC thing. I know that it’s not- Well, I, I’m about to say something, and what I’m about to say is the exact thing that I’m trying to teach you not to do. Okay? So I noticed that when I was talking about it, I was explaining that, you know, I recognize it’s, it’s not like I’m on Oprah. It’s, it’s the local daytime Atlanta show. Do you see how I tried to make that seem less? Smaller? Just, like, a little bit not as big of a deal? ‘Cause I don’t wanna feel like it’s a great big deal. It’s not that big of a deal. But also, it is, and it’s really fun, and it’s, like, a cool thing that I’m so grateful to be able to do. And I love the host of the show. She’s so fricking cool. And last year when I was on, it was so fun, and it was nice to get the video and to have it for my website, and I’m talking about two different topics, you know, in related to our, our work here. And it, seems exciting. I love to talk about it. We’re gonna talk about when you drop your kids off at college and you have nothing to say to your husband on the way home. And for a recorded episode for later, we’re gonna record a segment on why women are turning to AI. So conversations I really wanna have. So why am I trying to make it smaller? Why am I doing that? And I was talking to this other friend of mine, and we were just, like, catching up, and same kinda thing, and she was talking about some things she was doing and some big trips she was doing, and she tried to make ’em seem a little bit smaller. And a lot of the women that I know are entrepreneurs, because I’ve met them through entrepreneurial groups, and they’re all really successful. Like, I look up to them so much. And this one friend was talking about how she … how much money she makes and what her goal is for the year and some struggles that she was having. And I noticed that she was trying to- Like, uh, dummy it down a little bit, you know? And it was just the two of us. Like, we’re on the same page. We both want her to be wildly successful. And, you know, when she noticed that she’s around people who have less successful businesses or maybe make less money than she does, that she does things to try to make her life sound smaller than it is. She’s not lying, but she’s just not saying it all. She’s, like, editing. You know, trimming down the things she’s getting to do or saying, you know, “It’s not that big of a deal, it’s not Oprah.” I mean, the same things I’m talking about, and it’s so fascinating to me, like, why we do that. And even here when I’m trying to tell you about this and teach you something about it, w- I only te- I always am talking, I am… If you have been here a little while, you know this, but if you’re new here, I am with you on the journey, so I am teaching stuff as I’m learning it or things that I have learned along the way. But this is something that is continuing to come up, and I think a lot of us do this in little and small ways. So I wanna talk to you, and I want you to think about the last time that you, like, almost said something and then you didn’t. And not, I don’t mean something mean, but not something you’d regret, but something that was true. And, you know, maybe it was about how you actually feel about your, about your marriage. Maybe it was about how much money you make or how much you want to make. Maybe it was somebody asking you how you’ve been, and you had a real answer that was, like, right there in your mouth like marbles and you wanted to say it. But instead, you’re like, “You know, it’s been busy. The summer’s busy.” You edited it. Edited? Yeah. You edited it in, like, a nanosecond, and it w- it probably happened so fast that you didn’t even experience that as a decision. And, and, you know, it was an unconscious decision, not really a conscious choice. And the thing that I want you to notice about that is that you didn’t edit it bec- I’ll never get used to saying that word. You didn’t edit it because it wasn’t true. You did it because of how it might sound, and that’s a, different thing entirely So I think we have a word for this. We call it humility. You know, don’t brag, don’t make people uncomfortable, read the room, you know, be, be gracious. Nobody likes a woman who takes up too much space, you know? And look, you know, there is a real version of humility. There is. It’s the thing that keeps you, you curious. It’s knowing that you might be wrong. It’s, it’s not needing to be the center of every room that you walk into. It is a version that is good in that. And so I don’t wanna argue against humility as I just described it. But somewhere along the way, a second thing got handed to us that we call humility, and that second thing isn’t about being curious or being open to being wrong. It’s about being small. It is a version of you that says, “Whatever you have, don’t say it out loud. Whatever it is you want, keep it to yourself. And whatever you are carrying, carry it in a way that doesn’t inconvenience anybody.” And that’s not actually humility. That’s, I don’t know, some really heavy form of management. And so I wanna ask you to ask yourself who exactly is that managing? And here’s how I’ve come to think about it, and I’ve been sitting on this one for a little while. If you guys have been here, you’ve heard me talk about how I read that book,, it’s called The Seven Deadly Sins and the Price Women Pay to Be Good. And in that, she talks about the seven deadly sins, how we think those are tied to the Bible, but they’re not. It’s actually tied to the patriarchy, and they are a way to keep us in check, to keep us in line. So a woman who makes herself small is a woman who is easier to be around. She’s easier to be married to. She’s easier to employ. She’s easier to have as a sister or a mother or a friend. She doesn’t disrupt anything, and she takes up exactly the amount of space that’s already been allotted to her and, and doesn’t ask for anything more than that. And that is really useful. It’s, it’s just not useful to her. But it is useful because think about what actually happens when you downplay your life to make someone else comfortable. Nobody gets richer. Nobody gets happier. You know, the, the person that’s sitting there across from you doesn’t feel better about their situation because you shrank yours. All that happens is now there are two people in the room being smaller than they are, because if you stayed big, would they grow to meet you? You didn’t give anybody anything. You just, you just modeled something. And if you have daughters or nieces or younger women that watch you, you know, they, they learned it, too. They learn it quick. We learned it quick, right? And you don’t have to actually name it or, like, say a thing about it. We pick it up And here’s what I want you to think about this, because a lot of you listening are in the middle of a decision about your marriage, right? Some of you have been in the middle of that decision for years. I like to think I’m not alone. When I was in indecision for years and years, and years. But I want you to consider that this same habit is running inside that too. So I want you to think about how you talk about your marriage, like to your friends or to your sister or, you know, even, like in your own head when you’re just, like, going for a walk or you’re in the car all alone. Like, do you say it like it is? Or do you tell it in a way that sounds reasonable? Because there is a really particular thing that I think we do, and I hear it all the time, is that she will describe something that is genuinely painful, and then she’ll immediately follow it up with, “Oh, but he’s a good dad. But it’s not like he’s a bad guy. But I’m sure I’m not easier to live with either, you know? I know a lot of people have it worse.” And, you know, I, I mean, every single one of those things might be true. I think that’s what makes this little pattern so sneaky. Because if you watch what the words are actually doing, it’s, it’s taking the thing that you just said and shrinking it back down to a size that doesn’t require anybody to do anything about it, including you. And that is the same, same reflex, you know? It’s the same move. Now, I know a lot of you are, are deeply fair people, and you’d hate to be unfair about a man or a job or whatever that you have spent decades with. I get that But I wanna offer the idea that being accurate is a different job than being fair. And you can be super fair and be wildly inaccurate about you. You know, people describe to me all the time, like, so many years of loneliness, so many years of frustration. I remember in my own marriage, that was how I would describe it. That was the biggest word I would use, is I mean, insanely frustrated. I could not understand why what felt like very simple asks were n- being completely disregarded. Like, it, it just seemed, it was, like, m- crazy-making. And I hear other women saying the same thing. They will describe years of loneliness, and then spend the next, you know, four paragraphs out of their mouth making sure that he still sounds okay, that they have been fair. Then, and, you know, we tell a lot of stories in which our loneliness was, or our frustration was just, like, a detail in the story, but how he appears becomes, like, the whole point of the thing. Again, I wanna be really careful how I say this, ’cause I’m not saying we need to be unfair, and I’m not saying everything’s all his fault. I’m not saying that. I’m saying that the softener that you’re doing isn’t kindness to him. He’s not even here when we’re talking. The softener is for you. It’s for you to make sure that what you said doesn’t sound like too much. And so here’s kind of the question that I have been asking myself as I tell the story about how I’m not gonna be on Oprah. And I wanna offer it to you. What would I be saying right now if I weren’t worried about how it sounded? That’s, that’s it. That’s the whole thing What would I be saying right now if I wasn’t worried about how it sounded? Not what’s the right answer, not, like, what would a good woman say. What would I say if I didn’t seem like I thought I was too much? I don’t want people to think I think too much of myself or that I’m so great. That is, like, such a thing, right? So just strip out the part of me that’s monitoring this whole thing, and what is left? And I’ll tell you what I’ve noticed when I do this, is that the answer comes really fast. It, it’s n- it’s, it’s really obvious to me. It’s sitting right there, just, like, a half an inch below, below my voice box. And the sentence that I was about to say, which tells you something really important, which is we already know. We’re not confused. I’m not confused And even as I’m, I wanna say, like, I’m not confused about being on NBC tomorrow. It’s so fun. What a cool thing. There was a version of me 10 years ago that would have dreamed of this, to dream of picking out my outfits, you know? Like, how fun. I know from last time when I was on, we got millions of views. Like, that’s amazing marketing. Like, why would I try and make that sound less? And it is a habit. So it doesn’t always feel like it’s suppression. It feels like I’m being humble. It feels like being mature, right? I’m not making this too big of a deal. It’s no big deal And so how do you know if you’re being, like, I don’t know, uh, genuinely gracious or if you’re just shrinking? ‘Cause I think they look the same from, like, the other side of the table, you know? And here’s what I found. There are some things that we can check, and we can check them super quick, okay? So I want you to notice the speed. So real consideration takes a beat. Like, you think about the person, you think about the moment, and you make a choice. Shrinking is instant. It happens before the thought. So it, happens really, really quick. It wasn’t a decision. It never came into your consciousness. It was a reflex, okay? So real consideration is I’m talking to somebody, and I’m like, “I know they just lost their job, so I’m not gonna talk about how I just got a raise.” Like, I’m gonna just… Right? That’s real consideration. Now, doing it shrinking is when you are talking to somebody who’s doing great, and you’re like, “Oh, yeah, it’s no big deal. I mean, I got a little raise, but whatever. Everybody got one.” Do you see what I mean? You notice a little difference, right? Here’s the second thing, is you’re gonna notice how you feel afterwards. When you have been genuinely kind, you feel good about it, right? They just lost their job. I’m not gonna talk about how I just got a raise. You know? Maybe you feel a little proud of yourself. But when you make yourself small, you feel something else. You feel kinda flat. Sometimes I feel a little tired, I’ll notice, and there’s sort of, like, ugh, I wish I didn’t do that, and that feeling, I think, is the data, right? It’s the feeling of, like, there’s a room I could walk into, but I’m not gonna walk into it because I don’t wanna look like I wanna be in the room. So silly. And then number three is, like, who’s more comfortable in this? Like, real, like, graciousness, I’m gonna call it, it, it usually costs you something small, and it gives somebody something that’s really real, you know? Shrinking costs you something real, and nobody cares. Nobody gives you anything. So if you look at the room afterwards and you’re like, “Nobody benefited. Nobody benefits from me saying, ‘Well, it’s not Oprah.'” Like, nobody cares. You guys will… You’ll get off this podcast, and you’ll never think about how I’m on NBC again ’cause who… ‘Cause you don’t… You know what I mean? ‘Cause you got your own life. So it’s not me being humble. It’s me being safe or not wanting to seem too big or like I’m, like I think I’m d- so great instead of just owning this is a really cool, fun thing I get to do, and there’s no shame in that. And it isn’t Oprah, that’s true, but you don’t get to Oprah until you get to this. It’s on the way. I don’t know. Is it on the way? It- you know where I’m on the way to Drew Barrymore? That’s where we’re headed, folk. If I could be on The Drew Barrymore Show, I just want her to sit on my lap while we talk. That’s what I want. So I’m not gonna go tell you to, like, announce your new raise and your new salary over a giant dinner party. That’s not what I’m saying, but I think you need to catch it. You just need to, to notice it. You don’t have to even fix it, just notice the moment where you were about to say something that was true and something reached in and sort of changed the dials a little bit, and notice how many times a day it happens. Most of the time, I think… I think this is accurate, most women would be shocked at how many times they do it. In little ways you will shrink yourself. It might be with your husband. It might be with coworkers. It might be with yourself. You’re just talking to yourself and you do it. So just let yourself know the answer. Just let that exist because I don’t think we can make real decisions about our life using this edited information, and if the only version of your life that you have ever said out loud is the version that was pre-approved for everybody else to be comfortable with, then you have been trying to decide something enormous based on like a, a, like a kernel of it that you have created for somebody else. Like, no wonder life feels like it’s a slog, and no wonder we’re not getting where we wanna go. Don’t you think, honestly, if I was declaring I wanted to be on The Drew Barrymore Show and I was just talking about it all the time, like thinking about it in my own life and allowing it to be available to me, don’t you think if I was owning internally the fact that I’m gonna get to practice and be on NBC and do live, live TV, like that’s freaking cool. Atlanta’s a big market Like, don’t you think that would help me? And everything, if you’ve been here a while, everything you know about our brains and how our brains work, and how we actually create, don’t you think me owning it would help me to see a possibility in the future where the next thing I wanted would be available to me? Where the stretch didn’t seem that big. Because I’m creating a bigger space between me and Drew Barrymore by making this seem really small. If I made it seem bigger, the gap would close. Do you see what I mean? So I want you to think about where you’re doing this, where you’re keeping yourself from the next level of things that you want in an effort to be attainable in this version of you, in an effort to be eaten. Do you know what I mean by that? I don’t know why that’s the word coming to me, but it, to be absorbed, you know? You don’t wanna be too big of a chunk. Nobody’ll be able to chew it. So you try to make it really tiny. You’re not too much. You never, ever have been too much. You just learned early that by being a little bit less, you were safer, and you got so good at it That you forgot that it was a skill that you were taught and not a fact about who you are. So when you can start to do that, that is how I think you live a big life. All right, one last thing before we go. Punta Cana. We’re going to Punta Cana, you guys, January 21st to the 25th.

For founders, entrepreneurs, business owners, and leaders, the drive to achieve can sometimes hide the very patterns holding us back. What looks like strength on the outside may be carrying a hidden cost. In this episode of the Starter Girlz Podcast, Jennifer Loehding sits down with structural engineer, entrepreneur, and speaker Jasper Calcara to explore what nearly three decades of building businesses, leading teams, and solving structural problems taught him about personal growth, self-worth, resilience, and the pressure to be the one who carries everything. Jasper shares how his “Superman complex” helped fuel his ambition and professional success while also masking anxiety, perfectionism, control, and struggles with self-worth. He explains how learning to recognize those internal cracks changed the way he approached his personal life—and why the same drive that helps us achieve can eventually cost us if we don't understand what's underneath it. The conversation explores Jasper's Be Good, Do Good, Evolve framework, emotional healing, self-awareness, getting unstuck, asking for help, managing anxiety, resilience, and redefining success. Using lessons from structural engineering and bridges, Jasper explains how becoming more flexible and addressing our weak spots can help us withstand the inevitable “earthquakes” of life without collapsing.

Sterling Cooper has seen intimacy from a perspective few people ever will.After years working in the adult film industry, Sterling transitioned into coaching men and women on confidence, attraction, intimacy, and relationships.In this episode of First Rounds On Me, Hannah sits down with Sterling to unpack what men and women actually want—and how much of what we've learned about sex and relationships may be completely wrong.They dive into the biggest insecurities men bring into the bedroom, why performance anxiety is so common, what women really want from men, the importance of confidence and decisiveness, and why enthusiasm may be one of the most powerful things a woman can bring to intimacy.Sterling also explains why communication doesn't have to feel clinical, how couples can learn what their partners actually want, and why becoming better at intimacy is a skill that can be learned.They also explore the bigger cultural conversation: the growing divide between men and women online, rage-bait algorithms, Andrew Tate-style content, and why social media seems determined to push both sexes further apart.00:00 – Meet Sterling Cooper01:32 – From the Adult Film Industry to Coaching05:07 – The Biggest Problems Men Bring to Sterling07:29 – Performance Anxiety & Male Insecurity08:34 – What Porn Gets Wrong About Real Sex12:07 – How to Learn What Your Partner Actually Wants13:12 – Using Sexting to Improve Communication15:25 – Why Sterling Started Coaching Women16:03 – What Do Men REALLY Want?17:02 – The Ultimate Male Fantasy20:20 – What Do Women Really Want From Men?22:04 – Confidence & Leadership in the Bedroom23:25 – Can You Actually Learn to Be Good at Sex?25:12 – Why Intimacy Matters in Relationships27:52 – Are Men & Women Being Pushed Apart?29:05 – How Social Media Algorithms Divide Us31:23 – Why Rage Bait Works32:02 – Giving People What They Need to Hear33:35 – Where to Find Sterling Cooper

Guilt has become so commonplace in women's lives that many of us barely notice it anymore. It shows up when we set boundaries, ask for help, prioritize our careers, take time for ourselves, or simply admit that we can't do everything. But what if much of that guilt isn't a reflection of our values at all? What if it's the result of impossible expectations we've been conditioned to carry? In this episode of This Is Woman's Work, Nicole Kalil sits down with Dr. Jennifer Reid, psychiatrist, women's behavioral health expert, educator, podcast host, and author of Guilt-Free: Reclaiming Your Life from Unreasonable Expectations. Together, they unpack how guilt functions as a form of social conditioning, why women are especially vulnerable to carrying unreasonable expectations, and how guilt often keeps us focused on fixing ourselves instead of questioning the systems that created those expectations in the first place. In This Episode, Nicole and Dr. Jennifer Discuss: Why guilt can function as a form of social control. How guilt often masks deeper emotions like sadness, disappointment, and fear. Who benefits when women remain trapped in cycles of guilt and over-functioning. Dr. Jennifer's "Guilt Equation" and how expectations create unnecessary guilt. The four unreasonable expectations—or "Four Furies"—that drive guilt for so many women. How comparison widens the gap between expectations and reality. Why women tend to focus on what they're not doing instead of recognizing what they are doing well. Why the myth of "having it all" continues to fuel guilt and burnout. Dr. Jennifer's SPEAK framework for recognizing and responding to guilt. How to identify recurring guilt triggers and challenge the thoughts behind them. Healthy ways to establish and maintain boundaries without unnecessary guilt. How to navigate relationships with people who resist or ignore boundaries. The difference between healthy guilt that encourages growth and unhealthy guilt that keeps women small. Why letting go of unreasonable guilt is an act of resistance and self-leadership. Ultimately, this conversation is a reminder that not all guilt deserves our attention, and learning to question where it comes from can be a powerful step toward greater freedom and self-trust.  Thank you to our sponsors!

Some of the most exhausted people you'll ever meet are the ones telling everyone else to rest. This week, Pastor Craig unpacks the surprising true story behind Journey's "Be Good to Yourself" — written by two men who couldn't practice what they were about to preach.Drawing from Matthew 11:28–30 and Psalm 103:13–14, we ask what it means to lay a burden down — not once you've earned it, but simply because you're weary and Jesus is asking you to come. If rest feels like something you have to earn, this episode is an invitation to set that down and remember you're loved exactly as you are.

When did you last stop long enough to enjoy the fruits of your labour?In this solo episode, Eileen explores Lughnasadh, the ancient Celtic harvest festival, and the invitation it carries for our modern lives: to pause, look back, and actually celebrate how far we've come. Drawing on the mythology of the god Lugh and his foster mother Tailtiu, and the lens of Elise Loehnen's On Our Best Behavior: The Seven Deadly Sins and the Price Women Pay to Be Good, this episode looks honestly at why celebrating ourselves can feel dangerous, and what it might mean to finally let ourselves savour what we've accomplished.In this episode:-What Lughnasadh is, why it matters, and how to think about timing (August 1st, August 7th solar midpoint, or August 12th lunar — and why all of them work)-The three harvest festivals of the Wheel of the Year and how Lughnasadh sits as the first and most celebratory-The history of Lughnasadh as a season of fairs, markets, games, and community gathering and why it held its traditions longer than almost any other point on the wheel-The mythology of Tailtiu: who she was, what she sacrificed, and what Lugh's games in her honor ask of us today-Why rushing past our achievements without celebrating them is a form of disrespect, both to ourselves and to those whose sacrifices made it possible-Pride as a "sin" and how that conditioning keeps women especially from claiming what they've built-Sloth as a "sin" and the fear underneath it: if I slow down, I might not start again-A practical invitation to look back at the last six months and name what you've actually grown"She worked herself to death so that we don't have to. To honor her, I think we should be enjoying... the fruits of our labours"Join me for the next Wheel of the Year CeremonySubscribe to Eileen on SubstackTake the Which Witch Are You QuizOrder Awaken to the Magic Within Connect with Eileen on Instagram Follow Eileen on Insight Timer Send Eileen an email

That's how it starts. The fever. The rage. The feeling of powerlessness. That turns good fans … toxic. How does this toxification happen? Or does it happen? Maybe it's all the fault of big corporations. Or social media. Or foreign adversaries poisoning the discourse. In either case, we need discernment to sort honest criticism from harshest cynicism.

Stephen Burnett Iffy Eats Monsters for Breakfast by Bryan Timothy Mitchell Lorehaven Guild: July 2026 book quest for The Silver Chair Mission update New at Lorehaven, Daniel Whyte IV's Onscreen article: Supergirl Strives to Be Good, but Struggles to Save a Disempowered Movie. Reviews are currently on hiatus, but we have over 380 of those! Subscribe free to get updates and join the Lorehaven Guild. Critics are writing off famous fantasies, and we concede their demise. We also believe in an Author who surprises us with epic resurrection. Listen to episode 307. 1. They don't—some of this is legit criticism. Quick snack from the Concession Stand. We've talked about this. Big corporations selling bad storytelling have blamed “toxic fans.” Disney tried this against fans who disliked Star Wars TV shows. They maybe learned their lesson and didn't try it with Snow White. And even the current DC regime didn't do that much with Supergirl. In this case, studios may be driven to these scripts by leftist media. In fact, look for some media pundits to do this against Andy Serkis. But the fans may just be saying, “That's not for me.” Loudly. Often the fans have legitimate reasons for loudly rejecting stories. Stephen feels this way about previous and current DC hero movies. But in the past, the studio lied to DC fans and called them “toxic.” Even some false criticisms have some truth mixed into them. Fans claimed an actor called “Elliot Page” was playing Achilles. It turned out she wasn't; she played another soldier character. But this is still a gender-bend. And that character replaces Achilles. So what angry fans told you was true, from a certain point of view. In either case, this isn't “toxic.” That label implies a kind of sin. One may spy the familiar hues of the old fundamentalist legalism. But if you can't call something sin, don't manipulatively imply it is. Sin is binary. Actions are motivated by idolatry or by faithfulness. And anything that isn't an actual sin is just creative differences. 2. Fans may see actual folly, but overreact. Nevertheless, some fans have too much fun booing the screen. This is best illustrated by the infamous “Cinema Sins” channel. Its maker monetizes constant, often foolish movie nitpicking. This impulse, when it catches, ruins otherwise good franchises. Most recently, some anti-fans did want Christopher Nolan to fail. They did spread lies about Odyssey casting as if these were fact. Meanwhile, sociopolitical agitators slander Greta Gerwig's Narnia. They claimed as fact “Meryl Streep is playing Aslan.” Unconfirmed. Frankly, Stephen believes this could be Netflix's rope-a-dope tactic. If/when we hear Ciarán Hinds voices Aslan, the goals get moved. Fans may then easily forgive “race-swapping” or era-changing. We'd miss the real crime: ignoring Lewis's original 1900s setting! So don't get played either by studio false-flag ops or the agitators. Yet a few YouTubers, known for criticism, can be more balanced. Behind their loud clickbaity titles and aggression is an earnest side. Example: Gary Buechler says he earns just as much from positivity. In fact, his whole TV interview (even on Piers Morgan) is healthier. Stephen enjoys these YouTube roasts, but also these critics’ praise. For example, it's been a pleasure to see Buechler loving One Piece. 3. Later they become lost in sinful cynicism. We do need legitimate or balanced criticism, shared reluctantly. Alas, some of these voices do take over factions of our culture. This is the hateful, spiteful, deconstructive impulse from actual sin. We see this in many political movements that despise creativity. Often they are spreading lies and subversion more than big studios. One could conclude these “critics” aren't even happy being critical. And we see this from certain Christians who have axes to grind. Zack and Stephen see some voices only cursing cultural darkness. They are selling negativity and/or implied solutions (they made up). But at least the faulted corporations did try making new things! We're back to the adage, “Don't curse the darkness; light a candle.” Christianity gives no moral clearance for “professional cynics.” Our worldview is eternally positive. No matter the evils we see. And even non-Christian humanists ought to catch biblical optimism. Com station Top question for listeners Have you ever been accused of being a “toxic fan”? Next on Fantastical Truth Everyone's talking about that new release from Christopher Nolan, the feature film that is just so big that it's one everyone oughtta see. Zack plans to see it. Stephen may eventually get there. Meanwhile, what about that book by Greek poet Homer that changed the course of our world's epic storytelling? Dramatist and author Phil Lollar—no stranger to that name!— will return to the studio for our tour of The Odyssey.

Success doesn't always look the way we think it does.From the outside, Jasper Calcara looked like he had it all—a thriving career, professional success, and the respect of those around him. But beneath that success were hidden cracks: pressure, anxiety, self-doubt, and emotional wounds that no one else could see.As a structural engineer, Jasper knew that buildings don't suddenly collapse. First come the cracks. And if those cracks aren't identified and repaired, collapse isn't a possibility—it's only a matter of time.After spending nearly 30 years building businesses and leading teams, the tragic loss of his business partner and the end of his marriage forced him to confront the very cracks he'd ignored for years.In this powerful conversation, Jasper shares how he rebuilt his life from the inside out—and why the strongest foundation you'll ever build isn't beneath a building, but beneath your own life.Whether you're leading a business, navigating a major life transition, or simply feeling the weight of trying to hold everything together, this episode offers practical wisdom for building a life that's not only successful—but resilient, authentic, and built to last.In this episode, you'll discover:Why success can hide unresolved emotional strugglesThe "internal cracks" that quietly undermine high performersHow personal collapse can become the beginning of lasting growthThe engineering principles that apply directly to building a stronger lifeJasper's practical framework: Be Good. Do Good. Evolve.If this conversation encouraged you, please like, subscribe, and share it with someone who may need the reminder that true strength begins beneath the surface.#PersonalGrowth #Leadership #SuccessMindset #Resilience#GrowYourselfPodcast

What happens when you spend so much time being "reliable" that you forget how to be meaningful?   In this third installment of Reports from the Creative Closet, I'm exploring the "Be Good" trap. We often learn very early that being predictable and agreeable is safer than being fully alive, but that safety comes at a high price.   I discuss the Traffic Rule Covenant—a look at how we use rules to reduce uncertainty, and what happens when we stop treating those rules as tools and start treating them as our identity. We'll explore the "quiet grief" of adulting, the friction of being "manageable" in professional environments, and why your "rough edges" are actually the parts of you the world needs most.   I'm Nancy Norbeck, and I'm your Messy Muse Mentor. I help people feel alive again through creativity, curiosity, and play.   In this episode, I discuss: The Social Survival Instinct: Why we'll do anything to avoid being "thrown out" of the community. The Traffic Light Metaphor: Understanding rules as tools for safety rather than definitions of self. The Reliability Tax: Why professional "manageability" often requires us to override our internal signals. The Adulting Lie: Why being a "grown-up" shouldn't require you to abandon your curiosity and play. If you're tired of thinking about answering a creative call but never actually doing it, come join me for an hour and start feeling like yourself again. The Follow Your Curiosity Creativity Circle is a safe, welcoming, and encouraging environment where we send the shoulds and inner critics off to summer camp where they're kept busy rather than getting in our way.

Are Your Headlines Putting Readers to Sleep? (Let's Fix That.) I've been thinking a lot lately about the polite little headlines we keep sending out into the world—you know, the ones that tiptoe into a reader's feed, whisper “excuse me,” and then wonder why no one pays attention. This month, I'm diving into the power of bold, spicy, “oh-no-she-didn't” titles that make readers stop mid-scroll. Because if we want people to actually read what we write, we might need to ruffle a feather or two. Ready to stir the pot with me? Why Negative Titles Win (Even When Everyone Says They Want Positivity) Here's the not-so-secret secret: people are drawn to headlines that poke at their fears or frustrations. Negative titles stand out in crowded feeds because they tap into emotions folks already feel but haven't said out loud yet. Sure, I could have called this piece “5 Ways to Improve Your Blog Titles,” but… yawn. If your goal is to be memorable, negativity—used thoughtfully—is your new best friend. Your Language Might Be Way Too Nice (And Nice Is Boring) Let's talk about limp headlines built from words like improve, tips, and common mistakes. They blend right into the beige wallpaper of the internet. Meanwhile, words with a little edge—like hate—stop readers cold. One of my most successful content series ever was built around “Why People Hate Your Website.” That one tiny word did all the heavy lifting. Edgy phrases don't fit every brand, but when they work… oh, they work. Fear-Based Headlines: Your Audience Notices Them (Because They Can't Help It) If edgy makes you nervous, fear can still be your friend. Terms like failure and waste are irresistible because they trigger that little “uh-oh” moment in the brain. Think of titles like “Is Your Sales Team Wasting Your Marketing?” or “Don't Waste Time Trying to Be Good at Social Media.” They grab attention because they speak to real anxieties—whether it's the marketing–sales tug-of-war or the social media fatigue we all secretly carry. Negativity Is a Tool… Not a Lifestyle As much as I love a headline that hits like a splash of cold water, too much negativity starts to feel like, well… spending a whole week with someone who only complains. Mix it up. Pepper in the punchy stuff, but save the truly bold language for when it matters most. A little goes a long way. Your Turn: Go Write a Negative Headline Go ahead—try it. Add a little bite, a little edge, a little “oh no, they didn't.” And because I refuse to end this newsletter on a dire note… Have a lovely day!

In this episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosts Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton explore the often unseen impact the job has on children of first responders. Even when difficult calls aren't discussed at home, kids absorb stress (Amazon Affiliate), routines, emotional shifts, and the unique realities of growing up in a first responder household. This episode looks at how children interpret absence, unpredictability, and emotional tone—often forming their own understanding of safety, responsibility, and connection without ever hearing the full story.

As we entered the last two hours of Easter Sunday or Happy Resurrection Day (for some), Martha and I went out on the front porch to recall how our families observed the holistic day. Our conversation segwayed into a discussion concerning a statement Martha made a few months ago: "You can't know who you are, if you don't know who you are." In order to get the meaning of Martha's comment, one would have to slow down and be receptive to hear and discern what was said. We hope you all enjoy the conversation. Share your thoughts. We love you and Be Good.

Are you working hard, caring deeply, and still feeling like it's not enough? You're not alone, and this episode is for you. This week, Molly and Clarissa sit down with Dr. Ellen Hendriksen, clinical psychologist, core faculty at the Center for Anxiety and Related Disorders at Boston University, and author of How to Be Enough and How to Be Yourself. Ellen brings warmth, science, and radical compassion to one of the most common, and most quietly painful, struggles in recovery: perfectionism. In this conversation, we explore:

If you've ever felt pressure to be the "good girl," you're not the only one. Dr. Mindy has heard from thousands of women who feel exhausted by the pressure to be agreeable, accommodating, and selfless. Many women were taught that being good meant putting everyone else first. But over time, that pattern often leads to resentment, burnout, and a deep disconnection from your own voice. That's why Dr. Mindy invited writer and cultural critic Elise Loehnen to join her for this conversation. Elise is the former Chief Content Officer of goop and the New York Times bestselling author of On Our Best Behavior: The Seven Deadly Sins and the Price Women Pay to Be Good. Through her writing and podcast Pulling the Thread, Elise explores the cultural expectations that shape women's lives and how those expectations influence our relationships, emotions, and sense of identity. In this conversation, Dr. Mindy and Elise unpack the invisible rules women have been taught to live by for generations. They explore why women were conditioned to suppress emotions like anger and envy, how people-pleasing shows up in female friendships, and why learning to trust your intuition is one of the most important skills a woman can develop. In this episode, you'll learn how to: -Reconnect with your intuition and inner authority -Understand the cultural conditioning shaping women's behavior -Recognize how suppressed emotions impact your health -Navigate female friendships with more awareness -Step out of people-pleasing patterns -Reclaim your voice and authenticity For any woman who feels like she has been living by expectations that don't truly belong to her, this conversation offers a new perspective. It helps you understand where those patterns came from and how to begin trusting yourself again.

You may be familiar with this woman: she wakes up before anyone else, eats standing up, clears the dishes first—and if you told her she was good, she'd believe you, because all of that not resting, not asking, not taking up room, is what goodness looks like—doesn't it? Kelly digs into research showing that the behavior we reward in women—being accommodating, putting others first, never stopping—is actually a clinical risk factor for depression. This episode takes a close look at why many of us are so busy being good that we forget to be whole and the quiet cost of following rules we never actually agreed to.

What if being a “good woman” isn't actually virtuous — but conditioned? In this episode of This Is Woman's Work, Nicole Kalil sits down with Elise Loehnen, New York Times bestselling author of On Our Best Behavior: The Price Women Pay to Be Good, to dismantle the centuries-old rules that still dictate how women are expected to behave, desire, rest, earn, and lead. Together, they unpack how the seven deadly sins — yes, those — quietly shape modern women's lives, ambitions, bodies, money stories, and relationships. Pride, envy, greed, sloth, lust… turns out they've been weaponized against women for generations, rewarding self-sacrifice and punishing visibility, appetite, and power. This conversation goes deep — into patriarchy, good-girl conditioning, reputational harm, money shame, envy as information, and why women are often both the enforcers and the casualties of these ancient rules. If you've ever felt exhausted by trying to be good, likable, selfless, and low-maintenance all at once… this episode is your permission slip to stop. Because goodness that costs you yourself isn't goodness. It's conditioning. Thank you to our sponsors! Sex is a skill. Beducated is where you learn it.

TVC 723.6: From July 2020: Actor, author and acting teacher Basil Hoffman (Acting and How to Be Good at It, Cold Reading and How to Be Good at It) talks to Ed about how Jim Hutton and James Garner were two of the many actors he worked with who happened to be tall; how Richard Benjamin and Alan J. Pakula are examples of "actor first" directors (and how Steven Spielberg and the Coen Brothers exemplify "camera first" directors); and how Basil also happened with a number of actors who were father and son, including Jim Hutton and Timothy Hutton and Carl Reiner and Rob Reiner. Basil Hoffman passed away on Sept. 17, 2021.

“Send Coach John a message”Found a fired up thought from Psyche Wizard (@PsycheWizard) where it's a simple & powerful reminder that I know I needed to see.  “Everything you do, comes back to you. Do good, be good.”  I need to keep doing good. Being good. Doing better. Be Better. In EVERY THING I DO! So much of my life is changing (heck, all life is changing, all the time, every single day).  But since I have a front row seat on my roller coaster in my life, these are the things I know I need to keep working on. Hopefully you see the opportunities to work on things while you are riding your roller coaster.  Remember how motivation is not permanent, that is why we need to keep working on it every day! This thought helps me for sure to do that and I  hope it offers you some help too.Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. **

Several leftist movie stars lectured about the allegedly villainous law-enforcement activities of ICE on the red carpet at the Golden Globe Awards. They wore "Be Good" pins to mourn Renee Good and mourned of "terrorized" immigrants. Why should we care what they think?

The provided transcript features a media critic analyzing recent current events as coordinated psychological operations or “hoaxes” designed to manipulate public perception. The speaker argues that predictive programming is evident in how actors like Mark Ruffalo and Harrison Ford play characters that mirror Donald Trump or survive fictional assassinations shortly before similar real-world events occur. A central theme is the symbolism of the color green, which the source links to left-wing activism, the Broadway musical Wicked, and the “Be Good” pin worn at the Golden Globes. Furthermore, the author suggests that Netflix productions often foreshadow staged historical events, such as a recent nightclub fire. The narrative concludes that these events are proactively manufactured by a “meta-script” to create a perfectly divided society. Ultimately, the speaker encourages an objective, deprogrammed perspective that remains skeptical of the emotionally charged, bifurcated political theater presented by both mainstream and alternative media.Based on the sources provided, here are five significant quotes that illustrate the speaker's perspective on media deconstruction and “predictive programming”:* “If you're an actor and your role is connected to concurrent programming, predictive programming, then everything that you're doing on the world stage is likely sus, inorganic.” This quote highlights the speaker's belief that celebrities often act as agents in a larger, strategically managed narrative.* “Any event with a perfectly bifurcated split down the middle response is likely a hoax because reality isn't always split so perfectly down party lines.” This is described as a core axiom for identifying engineered events, as the speaker argues that “masterful” manipulation is used to create schisms where no reconciliation is possible.* “It's more accurate to say fake events, staged historical events follow Netflix.” The speaker posits that there is a “one-to-one relationship” between fictional propaganda and staged news events, using the entertainment industry to make certain outcomes feel “inevitable”.* “Our history is written in advance and it's proactively created.” This reflects the broader theme in the sources that major world events are not organic but are instead “totalitarian in scope” and planned long before they reach the public.* “Reality is what you can get away with.” The speaker adopts this axiom to explain that the “world stage” is a reality dictated by what the “believers” and “programmed” masses are willing to accept.These quotes reflect the speaker's mission of “the great deconstruction,” which aims to analyze media from a skeptical, “off-world stage perspective” rather than reacting emotionally to news cycles.

The incredible story of the football icon who changed a boy's life. Craig Bromfield's start in life was difficult: there was often no electricity in his childhood home, and he didn't even own a coat. He was in and out of the social care system, and would ask for money on the street. This is what 11-year-old Craig was doing with his brother Aaron, one fateful day in 1984, on a windswept seafront in the North East of England when he crossed paths with the era's most famous football manager, Brian Clough - and his life was changed forever.Brian Clough was manager of Nottingham Forest at the time, but his character transcended sport and regularly delighted UK television audiences. After a few meetings with Craig, Brian's public persona as an opinionated and uncompromising football boss melted away. Behind the studio lights and the bravado, Brian was a secret softie. He wanted to give Craig a better life, and incredibly, invited him to live with him and his family. Only Craig's early years would come back to haunt him when at 19 he made a decision that put the two men's friendship on the line.Craig's published a memoir called Be Good, Love Brian: Growing up with Brian Clough.Presenter: Asya Fouks Producers: Elena Angelides and Edgar Maddicott Lives Less Ordinary is a podcast from the BBC World Service that brings you the most incredible true stories from around the world. Each episode a guest shares their most dramatic, moving, personal story.

Jordan Lee Dooley is back to help us with that today! She's in a totally new season of life — mom of three under three.
