When you're feeling stuck or like you don't have options, that mindset quietly limits how you think, what you ask for, and how you lead.In this episode, I'm breaking down how scarcity creeps into your decision-making and negotiation style—and how to interrupt it. I'll walk you through three specific ways to shift out of scarcity, expand your perspective, and move forward with clarity.

If you've ever found yourself reacting instead of leading, or pushing forward without checking in on what you actually want, this episode is for you.We're unpacking the subtle ways pressure shows up in our lives—how it influences our decisions, disconnects us from our values, and impacts how we lead and communicate. This isn't about staying calm in high-stress moments—it's about becoming aware of the quiet, constant pressure that shapes how we show up. I'll walk you through ways to interrupt that cycle, realign with what matters most, and lead from a place of clarity and choice.In This Episode, I'll Cover:How internal pressure can quietly distort your decisions.The signs you're operating from proving mode, not power.How to interrupt pressure and return to aligned leadership._____________________

You'll learn how to position your ideas so they land with impact, how to reframe when you're not getting the response you want, and how to adapt your message based on who's in the room.

Biblical Talks  In this episode of Biblical Talks, SD and Lady V discuss the Secret Place referenced in Psalm 91. It is a place of shelter, protection, provision, and stability. One can only find the ‘Secret Place' in God. Because that covering only happens if one chooses to put his or her trust in God.  With that in mind, here are a couple questions for you. Have you read Psalm 91? If so, what are your thoughts? If not, no worries, we've got you covered. In any case, join us with your Bible or Bible app.  Also, go ahead and use the player at the top of this blog post or subscribe and listen via your preferred podcast platform to follow along.  Then get encouraged by joining SD and Lady V in this Biblical Talk — Covered in the Secret Place.  Scriptures Referenced in Episode Discussion  Psalm 91 Psalm 46:10-11 Psalm 139:15 John 3:16-17 Romans 10:9-10 Numbers 6:24-26  Receive your Free Gift of Salvation – The Gospel of Jesus Christ  Explanation  If you are reading this, it is not by chance. This is your time to receive the Gift of Salvation through Christ Jesus.  Now, you may be wondering, "Why do I need that?" Oh, I'm so glad you asked. The Bible says, that because  Adam ate fruit from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil -- he released sin into the world.  And ultimately, Adam's sin brought death and death spread to everyone.  No doubt, you may be thinking, "Of course, everyone is going to die." But, my question to you is "Where will you spend eternity?" Because there is life after death. In fact, when you die you go to one of two places -- heaven or hell.  Also, it is important to understand that, Adam's sin also brought an eternity in hell. But for those who choose not to receive the free gift of eternal life. Thus, you must make that choice before you take your last breath.  Romans 5:17 New Living Translation says,  “For the sin of this one man, Adam, caused death to rule over many. But even greater is God's wonderful grace and his gift of righteousness, for all who receive it will live in triumph over sin and death through this one man, Jesus Christ.”  To sum it all up, Romans 6:23 New Living Translation says,  “For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord.”  So, if you are reading this, don't let another day go by without receiving this life-changing gift.  Scripture   Romans 10:8-10 New Living Translation says,  “8 …“The message is very close at hand; it is on your lips and in your heart.” And that message is the very message about faith that we preach:  9 If you openly declare that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.  10 For it is by believing in your heart that you are made right with God, and it is by openly declaring your faith that you are saved.”  Salvation Prayer  Lord Jesus, I am a sinner, and I am sorry for my sins. I ask You to forgive me. I want to follow You, Jesus. I believe in my heart that God raised You from the dead. By faith, I ask You to be my Lord and Savior. Thank you, Lord Jesus, for your gift of grace and for eternity with You.  Listen to We R S.H.E.Talks Podcast  Use the web player above this blog post to listen or subscribe and listen via your favorite podcast platform.   Bible Study Resources  Holy Bible [NLT, NIV, ESV, NASB, NKJV, KJV]  Bible App by YouVersion  NLT Chronological Life Application Study Bible  Read the Bible Online – Bible Gateway  Read the Bible and Commentaries Online – Bible Hub  Read Living by the Book: The Art and Science of Reading the Bible by Howard G.

Turn any meeting or get-together into a chance for deep connection and collaboration.Whether you're holding a team meeting or hosting a family get-together, the success of any gathering, says Priya Parker, isn't about the perfect agenda or venue, but about the intentionality behind how you bring people together.“90% of the success of any gathering happens before anyone enters the room,” says Parker.

What is the need in this community or in this classroom or in this team?”In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Parker joins Matt Abrahams to explore the art of meaningful gatherings, sharing practical strategies for everything from crafting invitations that prime engagement to designing powerful closings that leave a lasting impact.

In this heart-rending and deeply inspiring episode of Warriors Unmasked, Chuck Thuss sits down with Raymond J. Brune, an Emmy Award-winning producer and former Executive Producer of Good Morning America, World News Now, and E! News Live. While Ray's career achievements are nothing short of incredible, this episode dives deeper into his personal journey, revealing decades of trauma and bullying that shaped him into the resilient person he is today. Ray's story starts with a childhood marred by relentless bullying, beginning in third grade and lasting through high school. Growing up in Catholic schools, Ray was tormented for having red hair, freckles, and his sexual orientation—things his peers picked up on before he did. But his trauma didn't end there. Ray faced severe emotional scars that haunted him for over 40 years, culminating in a CPTSD (Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder) diagnosis. Despite his successes in television, Ray found himself grappling with unresolved pain that nearly derailed his life. But an unexpected discovery of using artificial intelligence to reframe his trauma helped him find peace and healing. Through art therapy and his “right brain rain,” Ray began transforming the narrative of his painful memories, moving from victim to victor. In this episode, Ray opens up about this journey, his emotional scars, and how he found a way to forgive—even those who hurt him the most. Key Takeaways from Ray's Journey: Overcoming Trauma: Ray candidly discusses how bullying impacted his childhood and mental health, from daily harassment to intense isolation. His story sheds light on the lasting effects of childhood trauma and the importance of addressing it, no matter how long it takes. The Power of Reframing: Ray shares how he stumbled upon using AI to create artwork that helped him reframe painful memories, turning the narrative around his trauma from shame to strength. This discovery was a turning point in his healing journey. Forgiveness and Healing: Perhaps the most remarkable aspect of Ray's story is his ability to forgive those who caused him pain. By forgiving his bullies and even his father, Ray found peace and began to live a lighter, more fulfilled life. The Art of Being Bullied Ray's book, The Art of Being Bullied, is a powerful exploration of his experiences and the process he went through to heal. It blends memoir, psychology, and practical advice on how anyone can reframe their own trauma. Whether through art or other methods, Ray's book offers a unique and inspiring roadmap to forgiveness and emotional freedom. You can find The Art of Being Bullied on Amazon and other platforms. For those who are struggling with trauma, bullying, or just feeling lost, Ray's story is a beacon of hope. It's a reminder that, even after decades of pain, it's possible to heal, forgive, and emerge stronger than ever. Listen to the full episode to hear Ray's courageous story and learn how you too can reframe trauma in your own life.
