Hi my loves, Lindsey here. I've spent years in therapy, pursuing healing + self-discovery, but no one prepared me for this part—the loneliness that can sometimes come with becoming deeply self-aware. In this solo episode, I'm exploring the beauty + burden of self-awareness—and why personal growth can sometimes feel surprisingly lonely. We'll talk about relationships, healing, and navigating life when it feels like you're growing in a different direction than the people around you. If you've ever felt frustrated, disconnected, or wondered why doing "the work" hasn't necessarily made relationships easier, this conversation is for you. Join me to talk about embodiment, maturity, and how to stay open-hearted without overanalyzing every part of your life.

Listen up, ladies—Krista here. Can we talk about something that's been weighing on my heart? Lately, I've been questioning everything I thought my life would look like by this age—marriage, motherhood, success, and whether I'm exactly where I'm supposed to be. In this deeply personal solo episode, I'm opening up about the pressure of timelines, the fear of falling behind, and the tension between trusting God's plan + wanting certain things for your future. If you've ever felt like everyone else is moving faster than you, this episode will feel like a hug, a reality check, and a reminder that your timeline isn't broken.

On the shores of Vermont's Lake Champlain in the summer of 1968, two camp counselors watched a glowing craft descend over the dark water before losing hours of time they could never explain. What followed were terrifying dreams, recovered memories, hypnosis sessions, and claims of telepathic contact that would haunt them for decades. Known today as the Buff Ledge abduction case, the encounter became one of New England's most chilling and heavily investigated UFO cases.

This week on Stay True Podcast, Madi sits down with Hosanna Wong for a powerful conversation about identity, self-worth, and the freedom that comes from seeing yourself the way God sees you. In a world that constantly tells us to prove ourselves, perform for approval, and compare our lives to everyone else's, Madi and Hosanna dive deep into the battle for our identity, exposing the lies that keep us stuck in insecurity, striving, and comparison. They share practical ways to overcome a performance-based mindset, walk confidently in who God created you to be, and live from God's acceptance rather than for it. Whether you're struggling with self-doubt, constantly comparing yourself to others, or simply wanting to better understand your identity in Christ, this conversation will encourage you to stand firm in truth and embrace the person God uniquely designed you to be. Stay you and stay true! Topics we dive into: -How to overcome a performance-based mindset -What happens when our view of God becomes distorted? -Why your view of God impacts your view of yourself -Embracing the personality God uniquely gave you -The lies we believe about ourselves and God's truth that sets us free AND SO MUCH MORE Helpful Resources: Uncomplicate It: Permission to Enjoy God in Your Unique Way by Hosanna Wong: https://a.co/d/094mVEFc What God Says About You by Hosanna Wong: https://a.co/d/0hjRhdPc Dare To Be True by Madison Prewett Troutt: https://a.co/d/gdfpHX5 Stay True Website: https://www.staytruepodcast.com Stay True Merch: https://www.staytruepodcast.com/merch Upside: Download the FREE Upside App and use promo code STAYTRUE to get an extra $0.25 back for every gallon on your first tank of gas.

K+L also open up about the identity shifts, self-doubt, nervous system regulation, video anxiety, and growing pains that no one talks about. This is your reminder that the people you admire started messy too—and that consistency + connection will always matter more than perfection. We also talk about: Why most podcasts fail before they ever find momentum The importance of finding your unique voice in the AI era How to stop obsessing over downloads + focus on mastery Why listeners connect more deeply with hosts than guests The real reason community-building matters for podcast growth How social media + short-form clips drive discoverability in 2026 The surprising psychology behind “cult-like” podcast communities Why interview shows are harder to grow today than solo formats The exact mindset shift that helped Almost 30 build a loyal audience for 10 years Resources: Instagram: @lindseysimcik Instagram: @itskrista Order our book, Almost 30: A Definitive Guide To A Life You Love For The Next Decade and Beyond, here: https://bit.ly/Almost30Book.

⚔️Sir Graelent is too beautiful for his scruplesAt least that's what the queen thinks. Good thing she doesn't have the power to wreck his whole life if he doesn't love her. Oh, wait...
What if the way you see your body, your relationships, and your purpose… isn't actually yours? In this raw solo Q&A, Krista opens up about the beliefs, patterns, and emotional habits quietly shaping your life—and how to finally break free from them. From food anxiety + body image to dating, friendship breakups, and stepping into your next identity, this episode feels like a late-night conversation with your most honest, no-BS friend. Krista dives into the real reasons we stay stuck—and the mindset shifts that change everything. If you're navigating your late 20s or 30s and craving clarity, confidence, and deeper alignment, this is your reset. Expect truth bombs, spiritual insight, and the kind of perspective that makes you pause, reflect, and rethink the life you're building. We also talk about: Why your beliefs about your body shape your reality The concept of “psychic protection” on social media and energetic boundaries What it really means to find your purpose (with or without corporate life) How to embody “queen energy” vs. people-pleasing “maiden energy” Why modern dating is broken—and the truth about cheating and male insecurity How to handle criticism, feedback, and stepping into a new identity Healing the female friendship wound and navigating friendship breakups Why your life always upgrades after releasing misaligned relationships Resources: Instagram: @itskrista Website: https://itskrista.com/ Order our book, Almost 30: A Definitive Guide To A Life You Love For The Next Decade and Beyond, here: https://bit.ly/Almost30Book.

On this episode of the MeidasTouch Podcast, Ben, Brett, and Jordy break down the rapidly escalating chaos in the Middle East after Donald Trump's latest Strait of Hormuz announcement backfires spectacularly, with Iran firing on U.S. ships, striking a key UAE port, and pushing the region to the brink of full-blown war again—while Trump's allies flood the airwaves with “Baghdad Bob”-style spin insisting everything is under control. Back at home, a federal judge steps in to block yet another controversial Trump demolition project in Washington, D.C., as new reporting exposes troubling coordination between the DOJ and former Attorney General Pam Bondi tied to the Epstein files cover-up. The episode also dives into Marjorie Taylor Greene recent speech rebuking Trump, unpacks the real story behind the Spirit Airlines collapse amid soaring fuel costs, and more.

Danielle talks about the gross public countdowns to her 18th birthday, and the trauma of being mocked on her own show for being "fat" at a size 4.She shares what it was like taking Lance Bass to her high school prom during the absolute peak of *NSYNC, having Sabrina Carpenter and John Mayer in her wedding party, and details a 3-day nightmare date from her matchmaker era that might just be the worst dating story we've ever heard on this podcast.

Welcome back! In this episode, Kaleb and I are dishing out our list of things we're LEAVING BEHIND in 2025. Some are funny, some are deep, and some are... gonna ruffle some feathers. From Christian thirst traps, to overusing the word "trauma," to Gilmore Girls fall reels (Kaleb goes OFF), we are talking about ALL the things that just need to stay in the past. Plus, we get real about friendship dynamics, boundaries, soft launches, scrolling habits, and even church announcements. We also called up our friend Josh Benson to weigh in on the Christian thirst trap convo and he did NOT hold back. This one had us laughing but he also had tons of wisdom! Whether you're here to get a good laugh or some fresh perspective, we hope this episode encourages you to take inventory of what habits, trends, or mindsets you need to leave behind.

As we close out 2025, I'm reflecting on the biggest lessons we've learned about building mental strength this year. I reviewed reviewed the most listened-to episodes of the year—from conversations with neuroscientists to inspiring stories from musicians—to bring you the top 10 takeaways that resonated most with you. Today, I'm breaking down the most powerful, science-backed strategies and insights from this year's most popular episodes to help you make 2026 your strongest year yet. Some of the things I talk about are: The #1 lesson from our most popular episode on healing anxiety How to "dose stack" your brain chemicals for a powerful boost to your mental health Why you don't need therapy to improve your mental health (and what may be more helpful) The surprising connection between lifting weights, confidence, and PTSD How to influence someone to change Why the belief "I am enough" is the foundation of a healthy money mindset The childhood beliefs that might still be holding you back as an adult Why joy is found in the journey, not the destination (and how to embrace it) Featured Episodes 211 — 5 Ways to Add More Joy to Your Life with Dr. Tiffany Moon 176 — 10 Childhood Beliefs Holding You Back and How to Break Free 181 — The Money Mindset Makeover to Help You Cope with Financial Anxiety with Elizabeth Husserl 174 — How to Influence People to Change Without Overstepping Your Bounds 179 — The Power of Persistence and Positivity with Singer/Songwriter Niko Moon 180 — Stronger Mind, Stronger Body: The Science of Building Both 202 — 10 Ways to Improve Mental Health Without Therapy 187 — The Ultimate Guide to Hacking Your Brain Chemicals with Neuroscientist TJ Power 204 — 13 Things Mentally Strong People Don't Do in Today's World Connect with the Show 183 — How to Permanently Heal Your Anxiety by Addressing the Root Cause with Dr. Nicole Cain Resources Buy a copy of 13 Things Mentally Strong People Don't Do Connect with Amy on Instagram — @AmyMorinAuthor Visit my website — AmyMorinLCSW.com Sponsors OneSkin — Get 15% off OneSkin with the code STRONGER at https://www.oneskin.co/ Quince — Go to Quince.com/stronger for free shipping on your order and 365 day returns!

Do you think you need to completely overhaul your life to become mentally stronger in 2026? Whether you are planning to wake up at 4 a.m. or commit to a grueling routine, we're often told we need to create all new habits if we want to change our lives. But, big changes rarely stick. Fortunately, a few simple changes might help you build lasting mental strength. Today, I'm sharing three powerful, low-effort strategies that take just minutes a day but will help you build the mental muscle you need to handle whatever the new year throws your way. Some of the things I talk about are: Why most New Year's resolutions fail and the "tiny changes" alternative that actually works The biggest misconception about mental strength training (and why it doesn't require hours of your time) The 60-second strategy that will help you start your morning strong The one thing you can give up to feel refreshed every day The surprising thing that will help you build emotional strength each day How to turn these small daily actions into a cumulative effect that changes how you think, feel, and act Subscribe to Mentally Stronger Premium for exclusive content like weekly bonus episodes, mental strength challenges, and office hours with me.

Do you ever wonder if the habits you rely on to get through the day might actually be holding you back from living a full, rich life? Maybe it's a nightly glass of wine, scrolling on social media, or even working extra hours . These strategies might help you feel a little better for a minute but they may numb be dimming your life in the big picture. My guest today is Cecily Mak, co-founder of Wisdom Ventures, a fund investing in human connection and well-being, and the author of a booked called Undimmed. Cecily shares her personal journey of identifying the “dimmers” in her life—habits that dulled her ability to fully experience life—and how she transformed her life in the process. Some of the things we discuss are: How to recognize your dimmers What to do when you find something that is dimming your life Why some habits that seem positive, like generosity or productivity, can sometimes be dimmers How to create a 30-day experiment to get distance from your dimmers How uncomfortable emotions can guide you toward meaningful change Why redefining your relationship with discomfort can make you mentally stronger How alcohol was dimming Cecily's life and what happened when she gave it up Subscribe to Mentally Stronger Premium for exclusive content like weekly bonus episodes, mental strength challenges, and office hours with me.

Do you wonder how mentally strong you really are? Well, today I'm sharing a five question audit that will not only help you assess your mental strength but will also give you a blueprint to identify what you can work on to grow even stronger next year. Building mental strength is an ongoing process, and it's important to take a few minutes to assess yourself every once in a while so know what you're doing well and what areas could use a little improvement. Some of the things I talk about are: Why a mental strength audit is crucial for personal growth How to identify your hidden strengths by reflecting on past challenges The impact of the "negativity bias" on recognizing your progress How to spot and replace unhealthy coping skills that drain your mental energy Why focusing on what you can control is a game-changer for reducing anxiety How to set a "stretch goal" to challenge yourself in the new year The difference between behavioral goals and outcome goals How to use your audit to create a blueprint for a more intentional life Subscribe to Mentally Stronger Premium for exclusive content like weekly bonus episodes, mental strength challenges, and office hours with me.

Do you ever wonder if therapy is right for you? Or have you heard someone say, "everyone needs therapy" and questioned if it's really true? My guest today is Joe Nucci, a licensed therapist who challenges some common beliefs about mental health services, therapy, and commonly used terms. He's also the author of Psychobabble. Some of the things we discuss are: Why most people don't actually need therapy The difference between mental health, mental illness, and "problems of living" What therapists actually do and why their work is effective Whether it's okay for a therapist to give you advice How to find a therapist who is a good match for you The concept of "adaptive avoidance" and when it might be better to push feelings down Why therapists can be seen as more like engineers than doctors The things that actually might be more beneficial than therapy Subscribe to Mentally Stronger Premium for exclusive content like weekly bonus episodes, mental strength challenges, and office hours with me.
