Send us a textThis one is close to my heart. I've been hiking through Oregon, taking in the beauty of the Sisters Wilderness—yes, those Three Sisters: Faith, Hope, and Charity. And with the International Day of Hope coming up on July 12th, I felt like the universe was nudging me to pause and really reflect. So, this week, I'm inviting you into that space with me. We talk about hope—not the fluffy kind, but the kind that carries weight. The kind that walks beside us when things are tough and reminds us to keep going. There's a story in this episode that brought tears to my eyes. There's also a reminder, maybe the one you've been needing, that you don't have to do it all at once. You just have to decide. One choice. One step. That's where hope lives. Come take a walk with me. I think you'll feel something in this one. Quote of the Week:“Hope lies in dreams, in imagination, and in the courage of those who dare to make dreams into reality.” – Jonas SalkTune in, my beautiful friend—let's talk about hope, decision, and the way forward.References:United Nations.

Psychologists and philosophers have debated what makes a good life, traditionally focusing on the search for happiness and meaning. Recently, though, the quest for another sensation has entered the conversation: fulfillment. Shigehiro Oishi, Marshall Field IV Professor of Psychology at the University of Chicago, joins host Krys Boyd to discuss his concept of “psychological richness,” where curiosity and spontaneity provide the stimulation we need, and how this outlook can carry us even through the hardest patches of our lives. His book is “Life in Three Dimensions: How Curiosity, Exploration, and Experience Make a Fuller, Better Life.”This episode, originally aired, February 4th, 2025.

This month, we chatted with Demi Yoo, a marketing professional who is also a self-described health and wellness junkie. Demi discovered meditation during a dark period in her life and found that this helped her mental health. Demi shared her most challenging meditation experience to-date, a 10 day Vipassana meditation retreat that had her meditating for a total of 100 hours! In Demi's words, this experience changed her life! She's happy to share the details of how to register for this in Ontario, Canada (see our Resources below). Finally, Demi created her personal virtuous cycle of positive reinforcement that has helped her redesign her life. How might you do this yourself?

Yes! You are in! Are you a strong man? Are you a strong woman? What is a strong man? Whoa, lot's of questions. That's what we do here. Getting Real and Pursuing Truth, oh and if you dig that opening hook, that is Marcus Rogers, Best Life, please buy/subscribe his music, here you go...Thank you Robert D. Wooten, making his debut as the play of the day on FriDudes. NPHX not your debut yet major kudos for having that strong man speak. I strongly encourage you to listen to the rest of that message, which can be found at this link in the show description...https://youtu.be/5bneMdVZHxM?si=nhoBZHQ4eDIFhkHGWays of the world will judge and say what is toxic. Toxic masculinity? You know what I call toxic? Saying that if you are a certain gender or race that you are automatically toxic. That is discrimination. The Dr. Reverend Martin Luther King Jr., a black life with whom we celebrate and even honor with a national holiday says, "Let us select by content of character...not by color of skin.". Gender can apply to that statement too."I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character." Didn't we just have an episode on about not judging? Yes! And I so appreciate MLK Jr.'s words. If we are to be judged, let it not by something trivial like skin color or gender, etc. Character. ISo let's get real and pursue some truth more. We know the danger verse of judging (if not, back up one episode). We know that verse that we are all flawed...Rom 3:23. So we know there is no perfect character. Yet we also know there are stronger characters than others. We know a stronger character will show fruits of the spirit...Galatians 5:22 NLTBut the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulnessNLT: New Living Translationhttps://www.bible.com/bible/116/gal.5.22So a Strong Man = Strong Character. Same with a strong woman. Think about your favorite people. Do you love people that take advantage of you or treat you with respect, the fruits mentioned above with character? Yes, I love rhetorical questions. Confession, at times, I have not been a Strong Man. Avid listener, you know my dirt....if not back up, perhaps even to episode 1...if you dare. Yet a Strong Man will confess in order to be healed, James 5:16. A strong man will turn where needed and correct what can be corrected. In progress right now.Are you worthy to be served/submitted? Many religious like to point out wives submit to your husbands. Not many point how it opens in Ephesians 5. 21 And further, submit to one another out of reverence for Christ. Eph 5:21https://www.bible.com/bible/116/EPH.5.NLTConfession, it is much easier to serve one another when we have our A games. However, on the days we don't, what did/does your Jesus Christ do for you? Does he forgive you? If you believe and choose John 3:16 and Rom 8:1, then, yes, absolutely. That's a Strong and Amazing Grace Savior.Matt 22: 36-40
I wrote this song when I was feeling particularly sad and lonely. It was based on a poem, which then turned into a song. I hope you enjoy... LONGING FOR LOVE All I long for is love..cried the sad little boy.. tears streamed down his lonely face.. In the darkness, all alone… Then the voice came, from somewhere, everywhere, nowhere.. deep, piercing, loving was the voice.. ‘Then just sit in the silence and feel love.. don't wait for it from others My Son Feel your own love well up inside you, soak in joyous love, bathe in glorious rays of love.. then..go share your newfound love with another. Look them in the eyes, see their inner beauty.. Embrace them with your heart.. Feel your love to them do this twenty times a day.. and then you will receive all the love you long for.. Love comes when you find love within… Links to Podcast - Leading Your Best Life Spotify https://open.spotify.com/show/1fnDlrXvIj7b6P1NP4ZP3h?si=2dd37c03e5494501 Apple https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/leading-your-best-life-with-leigh-farnell/id1421054862 Youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6y0JxVJsGnI&list=PLHBG3_iAZUoa3cSaWkBVS9neKsMoa62dK Youtube - click here Apple Podcasts - click here Spotify - click here Links to donate to support Leading Your Best Life Podcast https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=JMHAAMN2HL3MN ThatsATeeShirtCompany.com The Most Empowering Apparel on the Planet - Check it Out!

This week's episode touches something very real for us the quiet, hidden moments with food. You know the ones I mean. This week we unpack truth-telling, and the honest reflections that came up as I sat in nature, hat feather and all. If you've ever felt the urge to eat in secret, or noticed that tug-of-war between freedom and fear, this one's for you.

Yes, you are in. People do peoplish things. Got the pull to share more. BTW, if you dig that opening hook that is Marcus Rogers, Best Life, please buy, support his music, here you go...Thanks for listening. If worthy, thank you so much for sharing. FriDudes are in the Hope and Encouragement business. Last time, I checked, yes, this broken, frustrating planet needs some more Hope.So people do peoplish things, Rom 3:23. Where I got the pull was 'Practicing the Way'. Great book and teaching series by John Mark Comer. If you are a believer in Jesus Christ, this one's for you. If not, you are off the hook. People may do peoplish things, including you, yet that doesn't give us an unlimited card to do whatever you want...well at least if you call yourself a Christian.One, you are not allowed to hate anybody. Matt 22: 36-40You are to forgive everybody. Matthew 6:14-15 New Living Translation (NLT)“If you forgive those who sin against you, your heavenly Father will forgive you. But if you refuse to forgive others, your Father will not forgive your sins.You are to do kind things for your enemies. Matthew 5:44 (NLT)But I say, love your enemies! Pray for those who persecute you!Odds are you have some work to do if you want to call yourself a Follower of Christ. Me too. Truth, we will until the day we die. As we approach each day closer to death, for it is certain, Rom 6:23. We will no longer strive to please this broken planet. We best be pleasing our Creator before we meet. Rom 14:12I am not perfect. So don't expect perfection from me. Yet, you should expect that I'm striving to be more Christ like each day. If you were to ask my wife, kids, loved ones, neighbors, co-workers, etc., they should tell you that I was loving and caring. Honoring Matt 22: 36-40. They should also tell you that I loved God and Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit. They best know the reason why I love them through their flaws too. So how about you? You are not alone. I'm not picking on you. I'm trying to encourage you to step your game up. For if you do, your heart will overflow. Not my design. Your creator's.If you haven't yet, check out John Mark Comer's book, Practicing the Way. If you are in a small group, excellent, hold each other lovingly accountable. Oh bonus, you can find our Small Group Best Practice Guide on our latest post at FriDudes.com, here's the link...https://www.fridudes.com/post/dudes-guide-for-small-group-engagement-and-growthNow go, love God, love others, take at least one step forward each day on being more Christ-like.

Are fear, stress, and anxiety taking up too much space in your heart?In this episode, Russ Ewell sits down with Ray Kim and Stone Eleazer to talk candidly about the emotional and spiritual battles we all face—but often keep hidden. Through real stories and powerful insights from the Bible, they explore how fear, stress, and anxiety affect our mental and spiritual health. Whatever the source of our anxiety and fear might be, this episode reminds us that we're not alone. And we don't have to stay stuck. God is real. He's loving. He's good. And he wants to set us free.
“I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, and I have remained faithful. And now the prize awaits me—the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give me on the day of his return. And the prize is not just for me but for all who eagerly look forward to his appearing.” (2 Timothy 4:7–8 NLT) While reading the newspaper one morning, Alfred Nobel, the Swedish chemist and engineer, was shocked to find his name listed in the obituary column. It was a mistake, of course, but there it was. Nobel was dismayed to see that he was remembered primarily as the man who invented dynamite. At that point in history, dynamite was being used to great and devastating effect in warfare. Nobel was distressed to think that he would be known for creating an instrument of death and destruction. He was so distressed, in fact, that he decided to change the course of his life as a result of reading this mistaken obituary. He decided to commit himself to world peace. He established the Nobel Peace Prize. Today, most people who know the name Alfred Nobel associate him with that prize. Many know nothing about his invention of dynamite. That’s because Alfred Nobel had the chance to change the course of his life. What if you had the unsettling opportunity to read your own obituary? What do you think you’d be remembered for? What if you could write your own obituary? What would you like to be remembered for? It’s not too late to change the course of your life if you want to. In 2 Timothy 4:7–8, the apostle Paul offers an obituary of sorts for himself. “I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, and I have remained faithful. And now the prize awaits me—the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give me on the day of his return. And the prize is not just for me but for all who eagerly look forward to his appearing” (NLT). Keep in mind that Paul transformed the world that he lived in. He was used mightily by God to establish churches throughout the Roman Empire and beyond. He left countless converts in his wake. He mentored young Christian leaders. He fearlessly proclaimed the gospel to philosophers, Pharisees, rulers, soldiers, sorcerers, slaves, and possibly even Caesar himself. In the end, though, he saw himself as a wrestler, someone who fought spiritual battles with all his might; a runner, someone who finished the race despite pain and exhaustion; and a soldier, someone who guarded the truth of the gospel with his life. If your life were to end today, would you be able to say that you’ve fought the good fight, finished the race, and guarded the faith in the way that you live? If so, then Paul’s reward—“the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give me on the day of his return” (NLT)—will be yours as well. Reflection question: What would you like your obituary to read?

Yes! You are in! Does this world need more Hope or Hopelessness? Yes, I do love that rhetorical question. As for the FriDudes and others that meet everyday of the week, we are in the Hope and Encouragement business. Part of Hope is getting the wisdom to draw from the ultimate source. For you have all been betrayed by someone. For People do Peopleish things...here you go...If you dig that opening hook, that is Marcus Rogers, Best Life, please buy/subscribe to his music...Thank you Pastor Ricky Jenkins for that play of the day. For there is a church (Southwest Church) out in the oasis of the desert, the valley of Coachella, Indian Wells, California, where you can find more of his brilliant teaching. For those interested, here is the YouTube link to hear more...https://youtu.be/Qnl4LHMFy8A?si=UV9F0tPoYElTHl70 Avid listener, you know I love to share Rom 3:23. For many, such an odd verse for you. I've had some flat out ask me, why, why do you keep saying Rom 3:23. For it is Truth and it explains a lot. It absolutely explains the play of the day you just heard. It explains why someone cheated, betrayed, hurt, ________ you. We are all flawed. It doesn't excuse those hurts. It simply explains why People do Peopleish things. So if you put all your Hope in people (that even includes your pastor, parents, spouse, boyfriend, girlfriend, politician, etc.). You will get stung. Not a matter of IF, it is a matter of When. Give me enough time and I'll tick you off. I may have already. For I am flawed. I've dug major holes with my ego, my pride. Yet, I strive to shine a little beacon on my flaws and say my Hope goes beyond the flawed people on this earth (including myself). My greatest moments have come when I love my Abba, Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit guide first. You may not be there yet. Or you may believe yet how much do you really trust? Are you a follower too? If you are, you will learn to be content in all circumstances. Not happy, content. Big difference. Phil 4: 11-13. Black belt vs. yellow belt Christianity. We have believers. Not enough disciples. Definitely not enough Disciple Makers. Check Mat 28: 19-20. You love Jesus? He tells you exactly what your mission should be while on this broken planet. Are you doing that? Quit expecting perfection for people. For Expectations - Reality = Disillusionment. That's why many of you are depressed and/or anxious. You want Hope? Invest in the Ultimate Power Source. More Hope, more Love. Matt 22: 36-40

When panic strikes, it hits before thought has a chance to catch up. In this episode, I get real about fear — not the idea of it, but the full-body experience. We'll talk about how panic hijacks the brain, how to self-soothe, and what I learned on the trail when things got intense. A grounded, honest look at fear, and how to walk through it. Quote of the Week:“You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face.” – Eleanor RooseveltReferences:Whalen, P. J., et al. (2001).

This week, I'm recording… absolutely nothing! Best Life Laurie is officially OOO and fully planted on a tropical beach, indulging in some well-deserved “ass-sitting” (yep, that's a technical term). So today, I'm sharing a listener favorite episode that's more relevant than ever.In this replay, we explore what it really means to create a life you don't need to escape from—a life that doesn't rely on vacations to feel good. I talk about Parkinson's Law (a.k.a. why we always think we can do all the things before wheels up), how we fill our calendars with chaos, and why I've made it a non-negotiable to take two real vacations a year—one for adventure, and one for full-body rest.You'll learn why fulfillment can't be deferred until “someday,” how to start building your Best Life right now (without burning it all down), and why that sticker in a ski-town pizza joint just might be your new life motto.What We Cover:What Best Life Me looks like (spoiler: she's on the beach with a drink)Why two vacations a year is part of my success metricParkinson's Law and the midlife myth of “I can get it all done”How to stop living for the next break and start designing daily joyThe power of boundaries, and why vacation shouldn't include work emailsLiving your life now—not waiting until retirement, the next milestone, or a bigger 401(k)If You've Ever Thought…“I'll be happy when…”“There's just not enough time for rest”“I can't take a real break without the world falling apart”…this episode is your warm, sandy permission slip to think again.
Have you ever felt like fear, stress, or anxiety were running your life, even when everything looks fine on the outside?In this episode, Russ Ewell sits down with Ray Kim and Stone Eleazer for a powerful conversation about what it really means to connect with God in a personal, powerful, and purposeful way. Together, they unpack how fear, stress, and anxiety often go unspoken in our spiritual lives—and how these emotions can keep us stuck in surface-level faith.Whether you've been walking with God for years or are just beginning your journey, this episode will inspire you to stop hiding, start healing, and find lasting peace in a relationship with God that meets you exactly where you are.

A Note from James:Oh my gosh. This guy was thrown in jail for 65 years—and he deserved it. You'll hear about his crimes and misdemeanors. He started as a superstar quarterback, high school and college hero turned meth addict, and eventually became a hardcore RICO gang criminal. Sentenced to essentially life in prison, Damon's story is genuinely one of the most inspirational I've heard. He's got a bunch of books out—his latest, Six Dimes and a Nickel: Life Lessons to Empower Change, just came out and refers to the 65-year sentence he received. You need to read this book, which follows his memoir The Change Agent and The Coffee Bean, teaching a simple yet profound lesson about creating positive change. I could have talked to Damon forever about jail, prison fights, criminal life, meth addiction, and most importantly, the transformation that changed everything. By the way, this conversation will change your life, too—I really took a lot from his insights.Episode Description:Damon West was handed a 65-year prison sentence, effectively life behind bars, after spiraling from a promising college quarterback into meth addiction and becoming the leader of a burglary ring. This episode covers the dramatic highs and devastating lows of his journey, from his arrest and brutal introduction to prison violence to his profound transformation inspired by the "coffee bean" metaphor. James and Damon discuss deeply personal stories about addiction, identity, and redemption, offering listeners unique perspectives on overcoming profound adversity and using pain as a catalyst for extraordinary personal growth.What You'll Learn:How identity can become an addiction, and strategies to rebuild after losing itThe "coffee bean" metaphor and how it can help you transform difficult situations into opportunitiesSpecific ways Damon earned respect and survived brutal prison conditions without joining a gangPractical insights from the 12-step recovery program applicable to anyone facing challenging circumstancesHow forgiveness and accountability can become powerful tools for personal changeTimestamped Chapters:[00:00] Introduction to Damon's Story[01:27] Damon's Early Life and Downfall[02:40] Life of Crime and Addiction[17:02] The Arrest and Trial[29:06] The Verdict: 65 Years in Prison[30:25] A Mother's Ultimatum[31:06] Advice from Muhammad[32:19] Surviving Prison Fights[39:33] The Coffee Bean Story[41:38] First Day in Maximum Security[49:00] Earning Respect on the Rec Yard[51:08] Spiritual Awakening and Self-Improvement[55:38] Understanding the Eighth and Ninth Steps[56:31] Living Amends: A Path to Redemption[58:49] The Impact of Crime and Seeking Forgiveness[1:03:56] The Power of Forgiveness[1:10:29] Lessons from Prison: Servant Leadership and Community[1:15:41] The Journey to Freedom and Beyond[1:18:02] The Coffee Bean Message: From Prison to Global Impact[1:24:54] Final Thoughts and ReflectionsAdditional Resources:Six Dimes and a Nickel: Life Lessons to Empower Change by Damon WestThe Change Agent: How a Former College QB Sentenced to Life Transformed His World by Damon WestThe Coffee Bean: A Simple Lesson to Create Positive Change by Damon West and Jon GordonAlcoholics Anonymous: 12-Step Recovery ProgramSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
