Read the transcript of this podcast Get 14-day access to the Core Leader Library Highlights Ryan talks about personal development and becoming better leaders through understanding our own complexities and healing. He explores the science of sanctification and the difference between merely doing better and truly becoming better, focusing on our "being side"—the quality of our internal operating system—rather than just our "doing side," which encompasses our skills and knowledge. Learning this distinction can help leaders as they support others who are struggling in their lives. Ryan explains how our relationships with risk, failure, conflict, and even ourselves can reveal the quality of our being. Many leaders operate from a place of fear or insecurity, which can limit their effectiveness and impact. Ryan explores the concept of the "window of tolerance," which refers to our ability to manage stress and emotional responses. He explains how a narrow window can lead to reactivity, while a wider window allows for greater emotional regulation and resilience. Understanding this can help leaders create a supportive environment for their congregations. Ryan also encourages leaders to consider their own journeys and the areas where they may need healing. 00:02:00 - The evolution of Ryan's books and the deepening of his leadership concepts 00:05:00 - Mindsets and the difference between vertical and horizontal development in leadership 00:07:00 - The Being Side vs. Doing Side: The importance of focusing on the "being" side of leadership for transformational growth 00:09:00 - Connection between leadership principles and gospel teachings, emphasizing the importance of becoming 00:10:30 - The role of personal healing in effective leadership and the importance of self-awareness 00:12:00 - The window of tolerance and its relevance to emotional regulation 00:15:00 - Personal complexity and its impact on leadership effectiveness 00:20:00 - Exploration of emotional complexity and self-complexity in leaders 00:25:00 - Examining leaders' relationships with risk, failure, and conflict as indicators of their health 00:30:00 - Contrast between survival-focused leadership and purpose-driven leadership 00:35:00 - Investigating the quality of relationships with self, others, and various challenges 00:40:00 - The challenges of people-pleasing and its impact on leadership effectiveness The award-winning Leading Saints Podcast is one of the top independent Latter-day Saints podcasts as part of nonprofit Leading Saints' mission to help Latter-day Saints be better prepared to lead.

Welcome to the SpeakUPZee Podcast, the show designed to motivate, inspire, and uplift you to become the best version of yourself!Nobody talks about how lonely self-growth can be. When you start healing, setting boundaries, chasing your goals, and leveling up—people fall off. The invites stop. The conversations shift. And suddenly, becoming better feels isolating.In this episode, Zee gets real about why growth comes with distance, how to deal with that loneliness, and why it's actually part of the process. You're not crazy. You're just evolving—and not everyone is meant to go with you.

This is part 5 of our sermon series, "Relationships on Lock," at Fusion Christian Church. In this series, we discuss the importance of relationships and how to create and maintain healthy ones. Here, Pastor Zac teaches us five steps to connect better with other people, and all are focused on in-person relationship.Put Down the Phone.Too many of us are addicted to our phones. We allow them to keep us from personal connection and it is destroying our relationships. Put down the phone when you're with other people and pay attention to them.Look at and Listen to People.When you are interacting with others, look them in the eye and listen to what they say. As Christians, we should desire that others know we are genuinely interested in them and that we care about their lives. Maintain eye contact and listen to other people to demonstrate your care for them.Speak Words of Life.It is overwhelmingly easy to be negative, especially because we are surrounded by it all the time. Because of this, choose to speak positively to people so that you stand out and shine a light in this dark world. Choose to lift up others rather than bring them down. If we can do this it will stand as a strong testimony of the light of Christ.Practice Hospitality.When is the last time you invited people to your home? Hospitality was perhaps the foremost characteristic of the early church, and it should be one of our strongest attributes in the modern church as well. Being inviting and kind to others should never go out of style, and God has told us in his word that he desires his people to be hospitable.Be Fast to Forgive.Bitterness will kill your relationships faster than almost anything else. Remember that all people are broken, and so if you have a relationship with anyone, you are likely to be hurt at some point. Choosing to forgive rather than resent the one who has wronged you will preserve your relationships. Christians must be forgiving people, because God first forgave us.

Tyler Whitmer is an Assistant Athletic Director of Olympic Sports Performance at Boise State University. Tyler was a high school athlete who became intensely interested in sports performance when he had a unique opportunity to train at the Denver Broncos training center. As he transitioned to college, he discovered that he could have a career in this area and eventually accepted a graduate assistantship at the University of Kansas. Tyler discussed how his experiences at KU and at several small universities helped him grow as a person and coach. We discussed how athletics provides a range of experiences that can be both beneficial and potentially harmful for men, depending on the culture and what is modeled for men by coaches and mentors. Tyler mentioned a personal and professional shift that occurred for him during COVID that led him to develop a program called Get Reps. Get Reps is a group focused on helping male athletes consider what it means to be a good man and targeting some skills deficits that he has noticed in the athletes he works with. Finally, we discuss how helping men helps the entire community and some resources for those interested in the intersection between masculinities and athletics.

Welcome back to Becoming Better! In today's episode, we're diving into the beautiful story of Mary and Martha, two sisters who welcomed Jesus into their home during a pivotal time in their lives. As we explore the dynamic between these two women, we'll uncover a powerful lesson about the importance of slowing down, sitting at Jesus' feet, and not giving up on the promises God has for us. In the hustle of life, it's easy to become like Martha—caught up in busyness, distracted by our to-do lists, and overwhelmed by the pressures around us. Jesus addressed Martha's concerns, reminding her that “only one thing is necessary,” which was to prioritize time with Him. What does it mean to truly rest and reconnect with God in our daily lives? We'll explore the profound implications of this Scripture and how it invites us to realign our priorities. Throughout this episode, we will reflect on how Mary chose to be present with Jesus, demonstrating that sometimes, the most faithful action we can take is to linger longer in His presence. We'll discuss the significance of perseverance and how when we stick around—despite our doubts, fears, and life's distractions—we open ourselves to witnessing the fulfillment of God's promises.Join us on this journey of becoming better, learning to quiet the chaos around us and trusting in God's timing. Because when we don't give up, we position ourselves to see the incredible ways He is working, fulfilling His promises right before our eyes.Tune in, and remember: sometimes, waiting and choosing to be still opens the door to seeing God's faithfulness in ways we never imagined.

Welcome to another episode of Becoming Better! Today, we are diving into a powerful topic that many of us struggle with - feeling shame in sharing where we come from and the things we have done. We often let our past define us and hold us back from fully embracing who we are today. But the truth is, one encounter with God can change everything. Just like in the story of the blind man in John 9, where Jesus put mud on his eyes and he received his sight, God has the power to transform our lives in an instant. When we surrender to Him and allow Him to work in our hearts, we can experience miracles beyond our wildest imaginations.It's important to remember that there is power in our story.

Fr. Mike recalls Hezekiah's prayer for more time and reveals how Hezekiah did not use that time wisely. We all are only given a specific amount of time on this earth, and it's up to us to use that time to become more like Christ, so we can spend eternity with him in heaven. Today's readings are 2 Kings 21, 2 Chronicles 32, and Psalm 145. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear. Please note: The Bible contains adult themes that may not be suitable for children - parental discretion is advised.

In this episode of "Becoming Better," we dive deep into the importance of seeking God's guidance before making decisions in our lives. As Christians, it can be easy to rely on our own understanding and desires when faced with choices, but the Bible tells us to lean on the Lord and trust in His wisdom. We also discuss the concept of sanctification, the process of being set apart for holiness. This means making a conscious effort to live a life that is dedicated to God, continually striving to align our actions and thoughts with His will. It requires a commitment to growth and transformation, allowing God to work in us and through us. By choosing to be committed to sanctification, we are actively choosing to live a life that reflects God's love and grace to those around us. It is a daily decision to prioritize our relationship with Him and to seek His guidance in all that we do. Join us as we explore the importance of looking to God before making decisions, committing to sanctification, and living a life that is set apart for holiness. Let's embark on this journey together, becoming better and more like Christ each day.

In the final episode of season 21, the Developer podcast hosts Michael and Rob reflect on the lessons they've learned about becoming better developers over the past few months. Listen to Rob and Michael recap Season 21, Discussing Lessons Learned and Becoming Better Developers. Here are some of the key takeaways on Becoming Better Developers: Invest Time in Working ON Your Business, Not Just IN It One of Rob's main realizations was that he spent too much time on client projects. He was not taking enough time to improve and market his consulting business. To address this, Rob instituted a weekly "business development" time. During this period, he would step away from client work and focus on branding, automation tools, marketing strategies, and other efforts. The goal was to grow his business, not just execute client projects. Refocus and Redefine Your Brand For Michael, the past season involved a lot of rebranding, soul-searching, and really defining who his core customer is and what services he wants to focus on providing. He pruned out the consulting work that didn't align with his new vision to build a more focused brand around his new Envision QA product line. Get Organized Along with redefining his brand, Michael had to get organized—going through old code repositories, archiving obsolete projects, and separating out components for his new products. This provided clarity on what assets were still relevant moving forward. Keep Learning and Staying Current Both Michael and Rob emphasized the importance of continuously learning and keeping your skills up-to-date in order to stay relevant and marketable. Michael cited examples of getting re-certified, learning new languages and frameworks, and studying emerging areas like cloud and AI. Periodically Try Something New Rob advised trying new things periodically. This could be a new programming language, new tools, or revisiting an old area you hadn't practiced recently. Trying new things helps keep you out of ruts. It can also reignite your passion for areas you drifted away from over the years. Do What You Enjoy A recurring theme was the importance of finding enjoyable work. The work should energize you rather than drain you. Rob said, "We are not serving ourselves, our customers, or our families if we're not doing stuff we enjoy." He added, "That's what we're going to do best." Doing work you enjoy was emphasized as crucial. Reflect on Progress The hosts recommended periodic reflection. Look back at where you were six months or a year ago. Appreciate the progress you've made. Evaluate areas with less progress. Refocus your efforts in those areas. Celebrate your wins. But don't settle for where you are now. Get Feedback, Make Adjustments Finally, they advocated proactively getting feedback - whether from a manager, customers, or just self-evaluating strengths and weaknesses. Use that feedback to make adjustments, invest in training to shore up weaknesses, and optimize your strengths. Consistently re-calibrating based on feedback is key. A final thought on becoming better developers The main message? Consistent self-reflection, redefining priorities, continuous learning, and aligning your work with your skills and passions are crucial to purposefully growing as a developer over the long run. With intentionality and wisdom, the journey to becoming better developers can be an ever-rewarding one.

Let's dive deep into the power of perseverance and the importance of holding firm to the word of God. We focus on Galatians 5, where the apostle Paul writes, "You were running well, who hindered you from obeying the truth?" This powerful statement forces us to reflect on our own journey of faith and identify any obstacles that may be hindering us from walking in obedience to God's truth. We discuss the idea that as Christians, we are called to run the race with perseverance, keeping our eyes fixed on Jesus as the author and perfecter of our faith. However, there are times when we may face challenges, distractions, or even opposition that can hinder our progress on the path of righteousness. As we reflect on Galatians 5 and Paul's message to persevere in the face of adversity, we are reminded of the importance of staying committed to the truth of God's word. We explore how choosing to believe and trust in the promises of God can empower us to overcome any obstacles that may come our way. Ultimately, this episode serves as a reminder to all believers to remain steadfast in their faith, even when faced with trials and tribulations. By choosing to persevere and hold firm to the word of God, we can continue running the race well and fulfilling the call to obey the truth that has been set before us. Join us as we journey through Galatians 5 and discover the power of perseverance in our walk with Christ.

In this episode of the Becoming Better, we will be diving deep into the topic of gratitude and why it is so important in our lives. Expressing gratitude is not only a spiritual practice, but also a key component in personal growth and fulfillment. We will discuss how being thankful for the small things in life can pave the way for receiving bigger blessings. Gratitude has the power to shift our perspective and bring joy and contentment to even the most challenging situations. When we focus on the things we are grateful for, we invite more positivity and abundance into our lives. I will also share personal stories and insights on how practicing gratitude has transformed my own life and helped me navigate difficult times. By recognizing and appreciating the blessings we already have, we open ourselves up to receiving even more blessings in the future. Join me in this episode as we explore the transformative power of gratitude and discover the many reasons we have to be thankful in our lives. Like I mentioned a few weeks ago.... it's here! I will be discussing my new book "Broken Vows, Healed Souls" which is a guide for those who have experienced heartbreak or divorce.

The UNCHANGING faithfulness of God - even in the midst of challenging times. As Christians, we often find ourselves facing difficult circumstances that shake our faith and test our trust in God. But no matter what we are going through, we can take comfort in the fact that God's character remains constant. We explore the concept that God's faithfulness does not waver based on our circumstances. Even when things don't go according to our plans or prayers, God is still faithful and worthy of our praise. We must remember that His ways are higher than our ways, and He sees the bigger picture that we may not understand in the moment. It's important to keep our perspective focused on who God is, rather than allowing our emotions and hardships to cloud our view of Him. We must hold onto the truth that God is loving, just, and always working for our ultimate good, even when it may not seem that way. Through personal stories and biblical examples, we explore the importance of maintaining a steadfast faith in God, even when life throws us curveballs. We are reminded that our circumstances do not change who God is and that we can trust in His unfailing love and faithfulness, no matter what challenges come our way. Join us as we dive deeper into the unchanging nature of God's faithfulness and how we can hold onto that truth, even in the midst of difficult times. Let us be encouraged to continue praising God, regardless of our circumstances, knowing that He is always faithful and deserving of our trust.

As Christians, we are called to make decisions that honor and serve God, even when it may be difficult or uncomfortable in the moment. We explore how making the hard decisions now can lead to greater blessings and fulfillment in the future. We also discuss the power of our words and the impact they have on ourselves and those around us. As believers, it is crucial to speak the truth and positivity into our lives and the lives of others. Our words have the ability to build up or tear down, so it is important to use them wisely and in alignment with God's will. Join us as we explore the importance of making tough choices for long term gain and the transformative power of speaking truth and positivity into our lives and the world around us. Together, let us strive to become better followers of Christ and live out God's purpose for our lives.

Fr. Mike recalls Hezekiah's prayer for more time and reveals how Hezekiah did not use that time wisely. We all are only given a specific amount of time on this earth, and it's up to us to use that time to become more like Christ, so we can spend eternity with him in heaven. Today's readings are 2 Kings 21, 2 Chronicles 32, and Psalm 145. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear.
