In this episode, I share one of the most transformative moments of my life: watching my mom relearn how to walk after aggressive cancer treatments. It was humbling, heartbreaking, and taught me a core truth—if you don't believe in yourself, nothing else matters.Even with the support of loved ones, if you lack belief in your vision, your goals, or your ability to make it happen… your dreams will stall.So what does belief really look like in business?

It's about seeing your future self clearly and making daily decisions that align with her.This isn't just mindset fluff—it's a roadmap for making belief your business strategy.Whether you're feeling stuck, afraid, or like your “baby steps” aren't working fast enough… this episode will remind you that every small, imperfect action counts.

Latter-day Saints consider ours to be a non-credal religion, yet nearly all our Articles of Faith begin with the phrase, "We believe...." We're asked questions about our specific beliefs in official interviews where our temple worthiness is dependent on the answers. But what happens when one's beliefs shift over the course of time? How much does subscribing to a specific set of theological convictions matter when it comes to individual members' lives and relationships? In Episode 249, Cynthia and Susan kick off a season of conversations about big ideas by discussing one of the biggest: Belief.
We all want content that grabs clicks, followers, and sales. But if you're only leaning on urgency and social proof, you're missing out on the deeper magic: belief shifting. I used a parenting analogy on the podcast—comparing a boss yelling "Do it now!" versus calmly asking for help—to show why persuasive triggers spark action but rarely change long-term behavior. Belief shifting, on the other hand, rewires someone's thinking so they never go back to old habits. Today on the podcast, I'm unpacking: • What persuasive content really is (and its limits) • Why belief shifting digs into your audience's core beliefs for lasting change • Two simple patterns—metaphor/analogy and chunking up—to expose flawed beliefs • How to ethically layer persuasion on top of belief shifts for irresistible offers • The secret sauce in our B-Bot AI that crafts both belief shifting and persuasive messages Whether you're writing emails, social posts, or ads, this episode will give you clarity on when to press for action and when to invite a mindset upgrade. And if you want a shortcut, our Messaging Conversion Bot at brandlucero.com can draft both styles in seconds. Tune in now—your next breakthrough message is waiting. Did you enjoy this episode?

In this episode of The Intelligent Vocalist, John challenges the idea that confidence is a feeling or belief you either have or do not have. He explores the importance of rebuilding the relationship with one's voice, focusing on functional behaviors that define confidence, and the role of attention control in singing. Confidence grows when you focus on what you do, not how you feel. Episode highlights: The relationship with the voice often fails before the voice itself. Confident singers separate information from identity. Recognizing wins is essential for building confidence.

This one is tender. And it's personal. So I'm going to be gentle with you. Most of us are constantly looking around—at social media, neighbors, family members, even our own kids—to figure out if we're doing okay. If we're good parents. If we're worthy of the life and relationships we want. Sometimes that shows up as a quiet comparison. Your sibling's kid just won a game. A friend posts about their teen's big achievement. And suddenly you're wondering what that says about you… and your child. And without realizing it, we tighten our grip. More reminders. More checking. More "I'm just trying to help." In this episode, I talk about one of the hardest beliefs for parents to face: that the control we use to try to keep our kids safe, successful, and on track may actually be creating the resistance and distance we're desperate to fix. This isn't about blame. It's about relief. If you're exhausted from being the homework police, the room inspector, the phone monitor—and secretly wishing you could just be their parent again—this conversation will help you see what's really happening underneath the struggle. I share a client story that stopped me in my tracks, and a truth that changed everything for her relationship with her teen. Once you see it, you can't unsee it. If closeness feels harder the more you try… this episode is for you. If you'd like to take this even deeper, and at an accelerated rate, book a free Discover your Disconnection Pattern call.

The Gospel of John was written with a clear purpose: to awaken belief that leads to life. In this series, we'll walk through John's stories, signs, and teachings to discover what real faith looks like. Belief begins with a simple invitation—“Come and see”—and grows as we encounter Jesus in ordinary moments, wrestle with our doubts, and experience the transforming work of the Spirit. Along the way, we'll see Jesus break through barriers, meet us in seasons of grief, and call us to abide in Him. This is not just about a moment of faith, but a lifelong journey of trust, obedience, and hope in the risen Christ.

In this episode of The Lectern, host Ethan Hsieh sits down with philosopher and cognitive scientist Mark Miller to explore the science of predictive processing and its implications for happiness, meaning, and wellbeing. They unpack how the brain is not a passive receiver of reality, but an active prediction engine—constantly generating its best guesses about the world and updating them through experience. From belief formation and perception to resilience, virtue, play, and mindfulness, the conversation bridges cutting-edge cognitive science with ancient contemplative wisdom. Together, Ethan and Mark discuss how understanding the predictive nature of the mind can transform how we relate to uncertainty, cultivate agency, and develop a deeper, more participatory sense of happiness—both individually and collectively. This episode also introduces Mark Miller's upcoming course, Generations of Joy, which explores these ideas through neuroscience, philosophy, and contemplative practice.

How Ruben reverse-engineered a plan around his strengths and chose the luge because it rewarded tenacity and outlasting the quitters.

Proximity + authenticity win: your energy is the currency, and habits change in the right rooms. … and much more! About Ruben Gonzalez is a common man who achieved extraordinary things. He wasn't a gifted athlete. In school he was always the last kid picked to play sports. He didn't take up the sport of luge until he was 21.

When he competed at the Vancouver Olympics at the age of 47, Ruben became the first person to ever compete in four Winter Olympics each in a different decade. Since 2002 Ruben has spoken for over 100 of the Fortune 500 companies. He's considered one of the top motivational and inspirational speakers in America. His bestselling books have sold over 300,000 copies and have been translated to over 10 languages.

There's ONE word that's absolutely destroying your progress in recovery. One word that's keeping you stuck, paralyzed, and living in a constant state of shame and disappointment. That word? Should. And sis, you need to stop shoulding all over yourself. Like, right now. Today.

Why Money, Power, and Women Didn't Fix the Pain with Michael Lynch | The Hopeaholics PodcastIn this raw and powerful episode of the Hopeaholics Podcast, Michael Lynch sits down to share an unfiltered story of survival, addiction, crime, success, and redemption. From growing up in foster care and running the streets, to building a viral underground fight empire funded by prison hustles, Michael opens up about the rise that came with money, fame, and excess—and the quiet collapse that followed through alcoholism, isolation, and the brink of suicide. He speaks candidly about manipulation, power, broken relationships, and how alcohol nearly destroyed everything drugs never could. The conversation takes a dramatic turn as Michael recounts being raided just days after deciding to end his life, leading to jail, a fight for freedom, and an unexpected introduction to recovery that ultimately saved him. This episode dives deep into the psychology of addiction, the illusion of success, prison life, spiritual awakening, and what real transformation looks like after hitting bottom. It's an intense, honest, and inspiring story about losing everything, surrendering control, and finding purpose in helping others find their way out.#thehopeaholics #redemption #recovery #AlcoholAddiction #AddictionRecovery #wedorecover #SobrietyJourney #MyStory #Hope #wedorecover #treatmentcenter #natalieevamarieJoin our patreon to get access to an EXTRA EPISODE every week of ‘Off the Record', exclusive content, a thriving recovery community, and opportunities to be featured on the podcast. https://patreon.com/TheHopeaholics Go to www.Wolfpak.com today and support our sponsors.

We can learn a lot about the nature of God from his Divine Name revealed in Scripture. When God said to Moses, “I am who I am,” this was a revelation of a name as well as a refusal of a name. Fr. Mike explains how this mystery reveals truths about God: he is infinitely above all things; we cannot comprehend him, yet he draws close to us. This Divine Name expresses the steadfast, faithful, unchanging love of God for his people, even when we betray and abandon him. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 205-211.

Summary:In this episode of the Youth Ministry Soul Keeper Podcast, Todd and James discuss the importance of building authentic relationships with unchurched students. They emphasize the need for youth leaders to accept students as they are, connect them with caring adults, and build trust over time. The conversation provides practical strategies for engaging students, being present in their lives, and fostering vulnerability and authenticity in leadership. The hosts encourage youth workers to commit to long-term relationships with students, highlighting that genuine love and acceptance can lead to curiosity about faith and ultimately, a relationship with God.Takeaways:Accept students as they are, not based on behavior.Building trust takes time and intentionality.Vulnerability in leadership fosters deeper connections.Be present in students' lives outside of church.Good intentions alone don't build relationships.Every student is an image bearer of God.Connect students with multiple caring adults.Authentic love creates curiosity about God.Discipleship is a long-term journey, not a quick fix.Ask good questions to engage students meaningfully.Show Notes:ADAM KEEHN FOUNDATIONhttps://adamkeehnfoundation.com/Connect With The Show:Webpage - https://ymsoulkeeper.carrd.coFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100088943467640&sk=followersInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/ymsoulkeeper/Youtube (watch pod vids here) - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCIqvY3ftXO8-8poUuRYUZ8wTwitter - https://twitter.com/YMSoulKeeperConnect with James:Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/jamessabin13/ / https://www.instagram.com/edgestudentministries/Instagram EDGE Students - https://www.instagram.com/edgestudentministries/Youtube EDGE Students - https://www.youtube.com/@MinistryEDGEYouthConnect with Todd:Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/toddpearageInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/toddpearage/Twitter - https://twitter.com/toddpearageWe would love to hear from you with questions and comments at the following email: ymsoulkeeper@gmail.comCheck Out Coleader and plan your next month of ministry in just one click - https://www.coleader.coSign-up for Coleader here: https://share.coleader.co/SikZuk/joinGet help with the weekly grind with the help of Download Youth Ministry here - https://www.downloadyouthministry.comYouth Leader Summit Conferences: https://www.youthleadersummit.com/

In this episode, we discuss the nature of God, “who” God is, beginning with God the Father. Our reading explains how the Creed begins with God the Father because he is the first Divine Person of the most Holy Trinity. God is one Divine Being made up of three persons, and his identity is a deep mystery. Fr. Mike explains that God is a single ‘what' made up of three ‘who's.' Despite this mystery, God is not an anonymous force. He has revealed himself to us by making his name known to us, and he has thus made himself accessible.

But what if that was never the point? In this episode of Strange Planet, Richard Syrett sits down with author and filmmaker Adam Gorightly to dissect Saucers, Spooks and Kooks—a chilling exploration of UFOs as a tool of disinformation, psychological warfare, and belief management. GUEST: Adam Gorightly is a researcher, author, and filmmaker specializing in the hidden intersections of UFO culture, intelligence operations, and psychological warfare. He is the author of Saucers, Spooks and Kooks: UFO Disinformation in the Age of Aquarius and the director of the documentary of the same name.

In this episode of ClickFunnels Radio, we take the next step inside the One Comma Club Challenge by moving from belief into execution. After day 1, a lot of people took action fast - and many of you suddenly found yourselves with real leads, real conversations, and real pressure to deliver. Today's training is about removing that overwhelm and showing you exactly what to do when opportunity shows up. This is where we stop talking theory and start building real skills. I'm joined by Catherine Jones for a hands-on workshop that breaks funnel building down into a simple, repeatable system anyone can follow - even if you've never designed a page before. Instead of guessing, getting creative, or trying to learn everything at once, we walk through how to model what already works, rebuild proven funnels step by step, and gain confidence by actually doing the work. This is where "I hope I can do this" turns into "I know how to do this." Key Highlights: Why most funnels don't fail because of design - but because people overcomplicate the process How to recreate a proven funnel step by step without guessing The six-part SWIPES framework for building high-converting funnels Why funnel design is the easiest and fastest skill to sell online How modeling beats creativity when you're just getting started Why confidence comes after taking action - not before This episode is where things start to feel real. You're no longer just learning about funnels - you're learning how to build them. If the first training showed you what was possible, this one shows you how to make it happen. And once you understand this process, you'll never look at funnels, websites, or online opportunities the same way again. https://www.onecommaclub.com Get 3 months of ClickFunnels for only $99 at the link below, that's an 83% discount to get started! https://www.clickfunnels.com/cfradio

The Catechism we are reading follows the structure of the Apostles' Creed with frequent references to the Nicene Creed for further details and explanations. Together, these Creeds aid us in articulating the beliefs we share with all members of the Catholic Church. Fr. Mike discusses why St. Ambrose refers to the Creed as “an ever-present guardian” and “treasure of our soul.” He encourages us not to take this gift for granted. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 193-197.

Start Your Transformation Now In this episode, Your Belief and the Problem Is The Problem, Jim Fortin challenges one of the most deeply ingrained assumptions in personal growth—that problems are something to be fixed. Drawing from shamanic wisdom, neuroscience, and lived experience, Jim reveals that what we call “problems” are often creations of the ego, sustained by the belief that something is wrong in the first place. When identity is rooted in the ego, struggle feels real and persistent—but when awareness shifts, problems lose their power. Jim goes deeper into how focusing on healing, money, love, or solutions can actually reinforce the very conditions people want to escape. He explains why techniques, hustling, and even prayer can unintentionally affirm lack, separation, and struggle when they come from ego-based identity. Instead, Jim invites listeners to recognize themselves as consciousness first—and to allow universal intelligence to work through them rather than forcing outcomes through effort. If you've been working hard to “solve” your life but still feel stuck, this episode offers a powerful reframing that can change how you experience challenges altogether. What You'll Discover in This Episode: (02:01) Why believing you have a problem is often the real problem Jim explains how problems exist primarily because the ego believes they do. (06:45) How focusing on healing, money, or love can reinforce lack Learn why trying to fix conditions from ego-based identity keeps them alive. (11:58) Why prayer, visualization, and techniques can backfire Discover how effort-based approaches affirm separation from Source. (17:01) The identity shift from ego to consciousness Jim breaks down the difference between having consciousness and being consciousness. (23:45) Why stopping the struggle allows life to realign Understand how silence, presence, and service open the door to effortless change. (32:55) A simple sentence that dissolves ego-based problems Jim shares a practical way to separate who you are from what you're experiencing. Listen, apply, and enjoy! Transformational Takeaway The moment you stop identifying as the condition and recognize yourself as the one experiencing it, everything changes. Problems don't disappear because you fix them—they dissolve when you stop feeding them with belief, fear, and effort. When you shift from ego to consciousness, life no longer pushes against you. It moves with you. Let go of the struggle, return to awareness, and allow transformation to unfold naturally.

Let me be real with you: You won't experience healing if you don't lean in. And you won't lean in if you don't believe it's possible. This is the hardest thing about eating disorder recovery. Not the meal plan. Not the weight restoration. Not even the challenging of thoughts. It's the BELIEF. The belief that recovery from this terrible, horrifying, very no good, unfortunate eating disorder that has taken over your life is actually possible for YOU. Maybe you listen to this podcast and think, "Great, Lindsey. I love that this is inspirational, but I'm just not sure I'm fully bought in to the possibility that I can experience freedom. That I could actually change." If that's you, this episode is your game-changer + it's a ⭐ Fan Favorite that we knew we wanted to re-share with you this week. Recently, I had conversations with women who asked me, "Lindsey, I love what you do, but how do you help these women create that belief that this is possible for them?" And I said, "That IS the hardest thing. It's believing that this is possible." So today, I'm giving you a proven framework—a tangible acronym that spells out BELIEF—to help you overcome the limiting beliefs that are keeping you stuck and preventing you from your very best life. In this episode, you'll discover: Why so many women stay stuck in the destructive cycle (hint: they don't believe freedom is possible) The truth: Belief CAN be created, and it's a crucial step in the healing process The BELIEF Framework: 6 proven steps to create unwavering faith in your recovery B - Begin Small: Why trying to change everything at once keeps you stuck E - Embrace Support: The game-changing power of working with someone specialized in ED recovery L - Learn and Learn Again: How educating yourself builds reassurance and hope I - Imagine Your Future: The science behind visualization and why your brain can't tell the difference E - Establish Positive Practices: How to challenge negative thoughts and speak kinder to yourself F - Focus on Why: Why your "why" is greater than your "now" The powerful William James quote: "Belief creates actual fact" Why recovery is scientifically and clinically possible (yes, even for you) How to answer the question: "Can I believe there is something greater on the other side of all this?" If you want to recover, if you want freedom so badly, if you're tired of running in circles, if you're exhausted from your unhealthy relationship with food and exercise—this episode will show you how to build the belief you need to finally break free. Because if I can do it, then so can you, friend. KEY QUOTES FROM THIS EPISODE

Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Ashley M. Fox. Summary of the Interview In this episode of Money Making Conversations Masterclass, Rushion McDonald interviews Ashley M. Fox—former Wall Street analyst, Howard University alum, financial educator, and founder/CEO of Amplify, a fintech platform focused on making wealth‑building accessible to everyday people. Ashley shares her journey from working with ultra‑high‑net‑worth clients on Wall Street to becoming an entrepreneur determined to bring financial education and empowerment to communities traditionally excluded from wealth conversations. She discusses the creation of Amplify, her financial fall and recovery, her work in schools and prison systems, and how digital content has allowed her to scale her mission globally. The discussion emphasizes mindset, self‑belief, access, and a practical path to wealth, even starting with as little as $20. Purpose of the Interview The interview aims to: 1. Inspire financial empowerment Ashley explains how anyone—regardless of background or starting point—can begin building wealth and shift generational outcomes. 2. Demystify investing and wealth-building She breaks down how simple investing can be, the power of small consistent contributions, and how wealth isn’t limited to entrepreneurs or high earners. 3. Highlight her fintech platform Amplify She shares how Amplify democratizes financial education through online tools, community, and accessible investing classes. 4. Encourage a mindset shift Ashley stresses the importance of eliminating fear, building confidence, and using logic instead of emotion when making financial decisions. Key Takeaways 1. Wealth Begins with Belief and Mindset Ashley learned on Wall Street that the biggest difference between wealthy and non-wealthy people is not education—it's self-belief. Many people don’t believe wealth is possible for them because they've never seen it. 2. You Don’t Need a Lot of Money to Start Investing She urges people to start with $20, even buying fractional shares. It’s consistency—not starting amount—that builds wealth. 3. You Can Invest in Others’ Ideas—Not Just Your Own Building wealth doesn’t require launching a business. Buying stock is one of the easiest ways to participate in wealth creation. 4. Ashley’s Own Journey Included Failure After leaving Wall Street, she was evicted, slept on her parents’ couch for two years, and maxed out credit cards. Her purpose kept her going. 5. Financial Education Should Start Early She developed financial education programs for schools, prison systems, and everyday families because adults often learn too late. 6. Amplify Scales Wealth Education Her platform offers 300+ hours of videos and tools, helping members open 3,000+ investment accounts and invest $7.4M collectively. 7. Social Media Is Her Biggest Access Point Ashley reaches millions by being authentic, relatable, and consistent—meeting people where they are. 8. You Must Pay Yourself First Most people pay bills, companies, and creditors before investing in themselves. She emphasizes reversing that pattern. 9. Logic Over Emotion Wealth requires logical decision‑making, especially in the market. Emotional reactions undermine long-term financial growth. Notable Quotes (Taken From the Transcript) On Wealth Mindset “When you think and know and believe you have the power to create wealth and you deserve wealth, you move a different way.” “There is no president that can build the wealth that you can create for your family.” On Starting Small “You don't have to have a lot of money to start. You just have to have the will to begin.” “A whole lot of $20 can get you to a million—as long as you don’t stop.” On Investing “Consider the companies you give your money to and own them, because they are a lot cheaper than you think.” “If I’m helping you build a billion‑dollar business by using your products, I deserve a piece of the pie.” On Self-Reliance “You pay everybody… the bartender, the mortgage company—and you’re the one without money. Who’s going to worry about you?” On Purpose and Identity “My story never changed. The mission was always dedicated to the people I didn’t see coming into that building on Wall Street.” “Amplify is the movement. It just has my DNA.” #SHMS #STRAW #BESTSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The people who built the domestic terror apparatus are suddenly terrified it's being used. Professor Nick Giordano exposes the receipts they don't want you to see. When protest stops being protest and turns into intimidation, coercion, and violence, the government's response exposes a dangerous line between law enforcement and ideological control. This episode of The P.A.S. Report Podcast examines NSPM-7 and the National Strategy for Countering Domestic Terrorism through a critical lens, separating lawful dissent and peaceful protest from the extremism now playing out in cities like Minneapolis. It explains how bureaucratic power expanded under the banner of public safety, why political elites are suddenly alarmed, and how pre-crime logic threatens constitutional liberties regardless of who holds office. What You'll Learn The clear legal and moral difference between peaceful protest and political extremism How NSPM-7 redefined dissent, association, and ideology as threat indicators Why intimidation, harassment, and obstruction cross the line from protest into extremism How Operation Arctic Frost and Prohibited Access files reveal institutional concealment and abuse Why dismantling domestic terrorism frameworks matters more than partisan outcomes This episode confronts selective outrage, exposes constitutional rot, and explains why a free society must protect lawful protest while rejecting extremism enforced through mobs or bureaucratic power.
As Catholics, we can't pick and choose the areas of Church teaching we want to accept; we must believe the entire truth of the Faith because we believe in God, who has revealed it to us. Fr.

What if every health issue is actually part of the same underlying problem? In this powerful episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Dr. Will Bulsiewicz — world-renowned gastroenterologist, gut health expert, and author of Plant Powered Plus — explains why your gut health is a story of your brain-gut connection. He shares why filling the ‘God-shaped hole' is a biological requirement to reduce inflammation and start to heal. Skin issues, bloating, autoimmune disease, chronic pain, fatigue, brain fog, and even bloating may all be hidden symptoms of inflammation, driven by modern life, chronic stress, poor sleep, trauma, disconnection, and most importantly, a lack of spiritual connection. Dr. B shares a startling personal story of his own spiritual awakening that he had previously been too self-conscious to share. Dr. Bulsiewicz also breaks down: - Why modern convenience keeps us stuck in fight-or-flight instead of rest & digest - Practical, science-backed ways to reduce inflammation - Why health protocols help, but are never one-size-fits-all - Why the colon is your first line of defense against inflammation - Top 3 ways we're destroying our gut microbiome - How GLP-1 drugs (Ozempic, Wegovy) are changing gut health, and their potential long-term risks - Importance of fiber, protein quality, diet variety, and why the Western diet fuels inflammation We also explore the powerful link between science, faith, and healing — why spirituality, purpose, and human connection measurably improve physical health, and how loneliness, trauma, and individualism damage the gut and immune system. Backed by science, we unpack how trauma causes digestive disease and why forgiveness can literally heal the body. Dr. Bulsiewicz shares his personal journey into spirituality, his emotional reconciliation with his father, and the remarkable experiences that followed his passing. If you've been struggling with unexplained symptoms, chronic inflammation, gut issues, fatigue, or are searching for a more whole-person approach to health, this episode may completely change how you think about healing.

Mike encourages us to trust in the Church, who guards the truths of the Faith and passes them down through the ages. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 170-175.

While faith is deeply personal, it is not an isolated act. Today, Fr. Mike reflects on the reality that our faith is communal. It is lived out and passed down in the context of community. We also learn that faith is truly the beginning of eternal life. Despite the sufferings of this world, when we walk by faith, we experience a taste of heaven here and now.
