STRONG Life Podcast 509

Over the years, I've spent lots of time in hospitals as we navigate keeping Craig healthy despite his genetic heart issues. This past week was another week spent in the hospital for us and even though we've done this so many more times than we would like… Every time I come out with a new perspective in someway or a new thoughts on really how to keep your health as the highest priority in life and what I think is the best way to keep all your records and information organized and how to advocate for yourself.   One of my favorite things about podcasting and connecting with friends is sharing experiences because we're all in different situations every day so we learn different things. I'm grateful to have the opportunity to share our journey and the tips and lessons from being in such extreme situation at times and the take-aways that I think are most valuable to everyone.    We're talking about keeping good notes, showing gratitude to those helping you, staying calm and not letting overwhelming emotions take over and prioritizing the entire family when anyone is going through something hard.      -Email for health records  -Notes on your phone for each person- one for overall history and one more meds/supplements  -Book with everything printed  -Being realistic but optimistic  -Caring for whole family (Craig kept telling me to go be with the kids)  -Letting people know whats going on in your world so you get the extra support  -Stay strong minded and not weak - people help you more  -Ask questions and take notes  -Know people's names, show gratitude in anyway you can -Keep loving & doing normal feeling things through it  -Even if nobody has issues - keep good records as you go -Even if you have so many years so go through - loop in doctors to help you  -Push for doctors to connect with each other  -Consider concierge if you need it  -Get your team of doctors going before you really need it  -Keep health a top priority by reminding yourself that it is a top priority - on your weekly list of things to do  -Don't wait when you feel like something is off  -Don't eat hospital food - it's not good enough for when you're healing  -Do your own research for little things that can help- and ask doctors - juicing, supplements etc.  -Lay out clearly who you are the health quarterback for, then do all of this for them.  It's your most important job.    CHEERS to us, the health quarterbacks!

In this episode of the Joyfully Prepared podcast, Wendi gets real about the weight of motherhood — and how carrying it all nearly broke her.She shares how she slipped into unhealthy patterns:Never letting her kids experience consequencesNeglecting her own physical and emotional needsSkipping connection with her husbandBelieving no one else could handle things “right”Caring too much about what other moms thought — and silently judging in returnWendi opens up about how a painful, life-shattering moment forced her to face what she was really worshipping — and how God began gently showing her that motherhood was never meant to be an idol.If you've ever felt crushed under the weight of motherhood or struggled to put God first, this episode is here to remind you: you don't have to carry it all.Reflection Questions to Journal:Where in your life are you carrying more than God asked you to?Are there places you've taken on too much, thinking it's all up to you?Are you wearing a badge of martyrdom, like I did?Where are you silently sacrificing, hoping it proves your love or worth?Are you rescuing others at the cost of your own peace or well-being?Where might you be stepping in to fix or save, when it's not actually your responsibility?Where have you been caring in unhealthy ways — hoping it will be “enough” to prove you're a good mom, wife, or woman?What small area of your life might God be inviting you to gently release back to Him?Where can you start by loosening your grip, just a little?Website:  www.joyfullyprepared.comFB Group: Joyfully PreparedPodcast Episode:  Your purpose is YOU!

Scott Groves welcomes back Robert Haglund—Air Force veteran, conservative radio producer, and author of Rescuing the American Project. Together, they rip into the myths surrounding nationalism, immigration, and globalism in 2025. They explore how America's founding ideals—not race or identity politics—must fuel the country's revival, and why the future depends on bold immigration reform paired with national pride. Drawing from real-world military, political, and cultural battlegrounds, Rob and Scott leave no stone unturned as they challenge conventional wisdom, expose political hypocrisy, and offer a tough-love roadmap for those serious about personal growth and saving the Republic.

On Memorial Day, it is worth reflecting on this very beautiful and almost baffling bit of human greatness.

On May 20th the New York Association on Independent Living and Caring Majority Rising held a joint press conference, urging the legislature to pass a bill restoring choice in the Consumer Directed Personal Assistance Program. Some argue Governor Kathy Hochul created a monopoly by shuttering some 600 companies, turning the program over to Public Partnerships LLC or PPL. Disabled people who rely on the program, their homecare workers, and advocates are fighting for A.8355/S.9754 to pass, otherwise services will be at risk.

Dr. Rick and Forrest explore disorganized, or “fearful,” attachment. This complex style occurs when emotional intimacy and distance both feel uncomfortable, and typically arises based on difficult life experiences. They unpack why this attachment pattern forms, what it feels like on the inside, and how it can change over time. Dr. Rick explains how to break the Catch-22 of disorganized attachment, and how fully embracing and expressing your needs can be the key to finding stability. Topics include hypersensitivity, repression, experiencing out, self-regulation, and why "boring" relationships can be transformative. You can watch this episode on YouTube.

Lesson after lesson, you sit in class—eyes open but spirit asleep, as if school is just background noise in a life on pause. Even chasing top grades feels hollow, like running a race without knowing why. In the US, more teens show up to school but mentally check out. In China, a similar apathy is called 'hollow heart disorder'—a spiritual emptiness despite success. So why are teens losing their spark for learning? On the show: Heyang, Steve Hatherly & Yushun

You and the Sunshine, Dylan...The Life and Times of a Caring Friend by Linda Sanders Amazon.com Dylan, the Golden Retriever therapy dog, has helped so many. As Sanders writes, "I considered it my responsibility to do whatever was necessary to see that he could fulfill his mission in life . . . to be of service to others." Sanders carries on Dylan's work with this book. With touching photos and heartfelt, unadorned prose, sometimes humorous, sometimes stark and uncompromising, Sanders reveals the depth and power of interspecies communication, bonding, and support. When Dylan looked at you, his gaze penetrated directly into your soul. Any posturing of the ego or cultural assumptions of human superiority evaporated into the profound comfort of sharing the essence of one's existence with another sympathetic being. In one photo, Larry, sitting in a wheelchair, cries and calls Dylan the names of every dog he used to have. Dylan returns his gaze and the caption reads, "Yes, I'm right here, we all are." We could learn much from Dylan. You and the Sunshine, Dylan is life-affirming, funny, touching, makes one cry, surprising, informative, and healing. The photos alone tell an incredible story of caring for others who need it most. There's no other choice, but to love this book that makes you smile between some tears. With deep psychological insight and inspired prose, Sanders breathes new life into Dylan's legacy. Dylan's Veterinarian, Anne Rylestone, DVM, PhD About the Author Linda Sanders recently retired after working for 50 years in demanding private and public sector management positions. Although she succeeded in finding time for creative pursuits of music and theater, as well as carrying out her personal mission to ease people's suffering in any small way she could, it was only after she retired that she found the time to write her first musical comedy, "Living the Island Life" and her first book, "You and the Sunshine, Dylan...".

Under the Law of Moses, if a person came into contact with bodily discharges or skin diseases, that person was unclean and unable to participate in tabernacle worship until they had been purified. They had not sinned by touching the sick, but they were no longer holy. Jesus, on the other hand, is incorruptibly holy. He touched the sick […]

HWY 46 Campus Pastor, Jim Pendleton, reflects on what Acts chapter 11 can teach us about the early church, and how it still applies today. Caring is just the beginning; God expects us to also take action.

Caring for the orphan

Driving Question. Where is true life found? Main Idea. By His grace, true life is found by hoping in God and guarding His gospel. 1. By hoping in God, not earthly wealth (17–19) Two warnings of wealth. i. (17) Danger of haughtiness. ii. (17) Danger of false hope. Helpful and hopeful reminder. "but [set your hope] on God, who richly provides us with everything to enjoy." Matt 6:19–21 Jn 10:10 Application. [Two indications that you're trusting in Christ and storing up treasure]: i. Thankful to God and rightly enjoy what he provides (17). ii. Be rich in good works, generous and ready to share (18). 2. By holding-fast God's gospel, not man's knowledge (20–21) Paul gives three final pleads to Timothy to have a faithful pastorate. i. A careful ministry (20) ii. A blameless ministry (20) iii. A graceful ministry (21) Application: i. Do you treasure God's Word as a sacred trust, or treat it as common? ii. Are you proactively guarding your heart and your church from error? iii. Are you more influenced by podcasts, pundits, and platforms than by Scripture? iv. Where might your heart be drifting from the simplicity and sufficiency of Jesus? Three Takeaways from 1 Timothy. 1. The Church exists to protect sound doctrine. Know the signs of false teachers (1:3–7; 4:1–3; 6:4–5, 21) Prayer keeps the church gospel centered (2:1–7) Proper roles rooted in creation (2:8–15) Faithful qualified officers (3:1–13) Teaching right doctrine (1:3–7, 10–11; 4:1–6, 11–16; 6:3–5, 20–21) Faithful living that bears Christ's name (1:3–5; 3:1–16; 4:6, 12–16; 6:3, 6–12) Rich doctrine is found only in Jesus Christ (1:1–2; 3:16, 6:21) 2. The Church is a household with structure. Christ is the head of the church (1:1–2; 3:14–15) Prayer and the Word guide worship (2:1–7; 4:13–16) Led by Elders (also called overseers) (3:1–7) Served by Deacons (3:8–13) The Congregation is a family (3:14–15; 5:1–2) Caring for widows (5:3–16) Supporting elders (5:17–18) Accountable to each other (doctrine, relationships, actions, care) 3. The Gospel is for the nations. Jesus came into the world to save sinners (1:15) Prayer (2:1–7) The glorious gospel itself (3:16) The gospel forms the church in missional context (cf Acts 18:19–21; 19:1–10; 20:17–38)

This week on our longrunning “Walk the Talk Show” podcast and video series, Waylon discusses Buddhism and Sadness. Caring isn't easy, but it leads to a beautiful, kind world that is easier on all of us. In a world where aggression is normalized, a soft, naive, joyfully troublemaking or curious heart is easily wounded, saddened, even depressed. Aggression creates further aggression. Kindness, with strength behind it, creates enlightened society. Everyday, little, ordinary moments are the best… ⁠

We've all heard of medical malpractice and its dire costs, but what about leadership malpractice? Should there be consequences or at least more resistance to those implementing non-evidence-based leadership tactics in academic medicine? Those questions and much more are explored in depth with our guest this week on the Faculty Factory Podcast, author Joshua Hartzell, MD, MS-HPEd, FACP, FIDSA, who joins us to discuss: Leadership responsibility and development Cultural strategies from the military that could be woven into academic health Excellence through empathy and compassion Utilizing delegation as a growth opportunity for others With 25 years in military medicine under his belt, Dr. Hartzell is a retired army colonel and a practicing internal medicine and infectious diseases physician. It's all about being more intentional with how we lead and taking care of people—that is what a healthy workplace culture rides on, according to this interview with Dr. Hartzell. "Most of the things we experience and our challenges are not clinical care issues. It's a leadership issue. We're really good at the clinical care part, but not so much the messy leadership stuff and how to deal with that," he said.

Conservation photographer Noppadol Paothong says that if you go out to take pictures of birds, you shouldn't just aim to take an eye-catching photo. He spends long hours in photo blinds, often watching and studying birds rather than photographing them. He has become deeply familiar with some populations of sage-grouse, to the point that he can recognize individuals. Caring about the wildlife you photograph, particularly for rare and declining species, will make you a better photographer, he says. Noppadol strives to highlight the challenges that birds face through his photos and point toward solutions.More info and transcript at BirdNote.org.Want more BirdNote?

In this episode of My Simplified Life, host Michelle Glogovac dives into the powerful shift that happens as we grow older—we don't stop caring, we just start caring about the right things. Michelle opens up about redefining priorities, from family and health to activism and authentic living. She shares honest reflections on showing up with integrity, especially in the world of social media, and how setting boundaries is a form of self-respect. Whether you're navigating burnout, feeling overwhelmed, or questioning your purpose, this conversation will inspire you to align your actions with what truly matters. What We're Talking About Finding your voice often comes with age and experience. Caring is about prioritizing what truly matters to you. Family time can take precedence over a clean house. Activism is more important than seeking approval. Health should be prioritized over hustle and busyness. Integrity in social media is crucial for authenticity. We care deeply about the issues that matter to us. Being selective with energy is essential for well-being. Caring is a form of rebellion against societal expectations.

The Brethren's bogus sanitizer scam. How the saints sold 80 tons of tap water as disinfectant in the pandemic!When the world experienced the tragedy and suffering of Covid, the Exclusive Brethren saw a golden opportunity to make quick and massive profits. Under the guise of “Caring for all men” and “Helping out in this time of crisis” they actually made matters much, much worse by flooding the market with useless and ineffective illegal disinfectants - all promoted by intensive UBT inspired advertising just overflowing with the most egregious lies and patently false claims. Specifically, this podcast tells the extraordinary story of the Ramsol disinfectant, a Quin Global brand marketed in the USA by Matthew Petersen, and in the UK by Carl Fowler. Dean Hales'Ox Tools then relabeled it as their own brand as did Zappshelter's Craig Michel, who marketed it as Zapptizer.This brazen dishonesty and calculated evil greatly enriched numerous prominent Plymouth Brethren family businesses across the USA, Canada and the UK – and of course, the Hales family of Sydney Australia, who dip their greedy fingers into any form corruption that they can find.We name and shame them all, in this raw and uncensored podcast that dips deep into the fetid cesspool that is the PBCC businessman's moral code of conduct.Link for insiders- https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/f224ty6dzpyhx4btp59v8/Get-A-Life-Podcast-Ep-138-Evil-Incarnate.mp4?rlkey=2mv512nd4miikxvxgzrwx3vhn&st=682nobug&dl=0Link to articles discussed in podcast- https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/zktizvqo91eya841av5n1/AGsX3BRNhcTYO8cQnNGeZ30?rlkey=vhw06yt0rtf9gfwlutyk4fcp4&st=rxo888gt&dl=0UK Biocidal Products databasehttps://www.hse.gov.uk/biocides/assets/docs/uk-authorised-biocidal-products.xlsxEU Biocidal Products databasehttps://echa.europa.eu/information-on-chemicals/biocidal-productsCraig Michel 110mph in a blizzard article:http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/scotland/tayside_and_central/6518119.stmQuin Global “Introducing Ramsol” Articlehttps://web.archive.org/web/20200409063203/http://www.quinglobal.com/news.php/Introducing-Ramsol-Actively-helping-the-current-situation-in-any-way-we-can.-64Zapptizer website:https://web.archive.org/web/20220921103338/https://www.zapptizer.com/Ez-Stak (Mike Lawrenson) webpagehttps://web.archive.org/web/20200804110955/https://ezstak-ppe.com/collections/disinfectant-spray-accessoriesCanada Proud 3rd party election campaign featuring Mile Lawrenson & Mark Bondhttps://www.elections.ca/fin/oth/thi/advert/tpdec1222/TP-0002.pdfOmaha man pleads guilty news article:https://archive.ph/WgcrZ#selection-2309.38-2893.7Nebraska Examiner article:https://nebraskaexaminer.com/briefs/omaha-businessman-pleads-guilty-to-selling-unregistered-anti-microbial-falsely-marketed-as-effective-against-covid-19/Omaha World-herald article:https://archive.ph/kIBbQKETV article:https://www.ketv.com/article/omaha-company-president-sentenced-covid-19-related-crimes/62021869DOJ Press Release 1 Quin Global:https://www.justice.gov/usao-ne/pr/omaha-company-and-company-president-sentenced-covid-related-crimesDOJ Press Release 2 Quin Global:https://www.justice.gov/usao-ne/pr/omaha-company-and-company-president-plead-guilty-covid-related-crimesUSA v Quin Global https://www.pacermonitor.com/public/case/52296830/USA_v_Quin_GlobalUSA v Petersenhttps://www.pacermonitor.com/public/case/52296828/USA_v_PetersenTo share your story or be a guest on the show, email info.getalife@proton.meGet a Life Paypal donations -https://www.paypal.me/getalifepodcastGet a Life GoFundMe-https://gofund.me/614bcd06PayPal link for USA- https://www.paypal.com/pools/c/8Tz4n35OJ8Admin/Legal email address:stouffvillelegal-gal@protonmail.comOffice address:22 Braid BendStouffville ONL4A 1R7#PBCC #plymouthbrethrenchristianchurch #exclusivebrethren #cult #oneschoolglobal #rapidreliefteam #ubt

Today, on Notable Leaders' Radio, I speak with David Steele, Founder + CEO of One Wealth Advisors and co-founder and Executive Chairman of Flour + Water Hospitality Group He highlights how applying the principles of service, goal-setting, and valuing people has shaped his journey from financial planning to building successful restaurant groups and supporting arts organizations. In today's episode, we discuss: True business success is rooted in serving others, not just making profits, because when work benefits others, it leads to deeper happiness and long-lasting impact, meaning you can feel good about making a difference while growing your business. Skills and principles are transferable from one industry to another, as David demonstrates by applying the same collaborative and organizational strategies across finance, food, and the arts, so you're not stuck on one path and can reinvent yourself in new fields with confidence. Pivotal life changes often start with self-awareness and honesty about dissatisfaction, like David's shift from being a successful stockbroker to a more fulfilling (but initially less lucrative) fee-based financial planning career. The lesson? It's okay, and sometimes essential, to pivot, especially if your values aren't being met. Caring for your team's well-being, even at a short-term cost, pays off through loyalty, retention, and greater future success, as shown by David's choice to keep his executive team during tough times, so you can build a lasting, supportive company culture.   Guest Bio David Steele, Founder + CEO of One Wealth Advisors and co-founder and Executive Chairman of Flour + Water Hospitality Group My primary role is as the co-founder and CEO of One Wealth Advisors, where we help people simplify their lives and achieve financial goals through Financial Life Planning.

Why is American culture so fascinated with psychopathic people and true crime stories? Why don't billionaires give more? What makes some people so generous that they'd undergo surgery to donate an organ to a complete stranger? These are the kinds of questions that Abigail Marsh, a professor of psychology and neuroscience at Georgetown University, studies. Chris and Abigail discuss the brain differences between extreme altruists and psychopathic individuals, why psychopathic traits do not necessarily correlate with aggression, how parents can support children with behavioral issues, and what we can all do to train ourselves to be more altruistic.FollowHost: Chris Duffy (Instagram: @chrisiduffy | chrisduffycomedy.com)Guest: Abigail Marsh PhD (LinkedIn: @abigail-marsh) Linksabigailmarsh.com/disordersofaggression.orgBookshop.org: The Fear FactorTED Talk: Why some people are more altruistic than othersSubscribe to TED Instagram: @tedYouTube: @TEDTikTok: @tedtoksLinkedIn: @ted-conferencesWebsite: ted.comPodcasts: ted.com/podcastsFor the full text transcript, visit go.ted.com/BHTranscriptsWant to help shape TED's shows going forward?
