On this episode of the Rocky Mountain UFO Podcast we are going to preview the first 2 chapters of the upcoming book, "Area 51: Secrets, Mysteries, and Enduring Legends"
Today I'm sharing one of my favorite chapters of a book I've ever written. Several years ago, my husband Jay and I released a book calledSuffer Strong. It's all about how we were able to survive anything because we were willing to redefine everything—from failure to trauma to commitment. Even beauty. That's the chapter you're about to hear.Before my stroke, I had never put too much focus on the way I looked. But once my face became paralyzed and my body lost a lot of its typical function, I had no choice but to confront the deep-down story of beauty that I had been told…and believed. After years of grappling with that story, I came to understand that it's actually a story about fear, control, and shame. The truest beauty, it turns out, comes from putting down the shame and embracing our belovedness.If you're ready to trade in your old definitions of beauty and start living in freedom, I pray hearing these words invite you to take the first step in walking away from shame.Suffer Strong - https://a.co/d/8DKyzM7There's so much more to the story.For more messages of hope, free resources, and opportunities to connect with me, visithttps://hopeheals.com/katherine.Follow me in Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/hopeheals/Subscribe to The GoodHard Story Podcast!Apple Podcasts:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/good-hard-story-podcast/id1496882479Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/0OYz6G9Q2tNNVOX9YSdmFb?si=043bd6b10a664bebWant a little hope in your inbox?

Send us a textPreviewing ‘Presence: Bringing Your Boldest Self to Your Biggest Challenges' by Amy CuddyIn this preview episode of Paradigm Shifting Books, Stephen and Britain Covey set the stage for their upcoming interview with Amy Cuddy, the renowned social psychologist behind Presence. The brothers share their excitement about discussing a book that has transformed the way we think about confidence and personal power.They explore the concept of “presence,” likening it to an inner strength that allows you to show up as your best self in critical moments—whether it's a job interview, a high-stakes presentation, or a pivotal sports moment (like returning punts in the Super Bowl). Drawing from Cuddy's groundbreaking research, they unpack how presence isn't an innate quality but a skill that can be developed through intentional shifts in body language and mindset.The episode touches on key themes from the book, including the science of power posing, the transformative idea of “fake it until you become it,” and the role of presence in overcoming imposter syndrome. Stephen and Britain also share the questions they're eager to ask Amy in the full interview, including insights into her research process and her thoughts on applying presence in everyday life.Join the conversation as the hosts dive into why Presence is a must-read for anyone looking to bring their boldest self to life's biggest challenges.00:00 Introduction to Presence03:06 Practical Applications of Presence06:27 Amy Cuddy's Background08:32 Questions to explore***If you like this podcast and the books we discuss it would mean a lot if you left a positive rating and review on Apple Podcasts ;)Follow Paradigm Shifting Books On:YouTubeInstagramFacebook
Thomas and Panu discussed Thomas' upcoming book Surviving Climate Anxiety: A Guide to Coping, Healing, and Thriving – a comprehensive resource for the general public that includes practical examples and stories drawn from people Thomas has worked with. Thomas shared insights about the book's five part structure, which is designed to move readers from basic skills for coping with eco and climate stress, through developing environmental identity, healing from eco-anxiety and despair, finding happiness and flourishing using the arts and spirituality, and taking action on environmental problems. Panu reflected on the importance of addressing the dark and light aspects of climate feelings and having a survivor mission. Surviving Climate Anxiety will be published in 2025 by Little Brown Spark.
