Behind every patient is someone quietly holding things together, a spouse, a parent, a friend, a child. They manage appointments, offer comfort, and often sacrifice their own wellbeing in the process. November is National Family Caregivers Month and Dr. Michael Gabriel, National Medical Director for Carelon Palliative Care, joins me to talk about the signs of caregiver burnout, how to find support, and how palliative care can bring peace and partnership to families. This one's for those who give so much and rarely ask for anything in return.
On this Make A Difference Minute, Dr. Michael Gabriel, National Medical Director for Carelon Palliative Care, reminds us that caregivers need care too. With nearly 59 million Americans serving as unpaid caregivers, burnout is real, but support is available. Dr. Gabriel shares how families can recognize the warning signs, set healthy boundaries, and access the help they deserve. This message is a gentle reminder that caring for yourself is one of the best ways to keep caring for those you love. Sponsor: Hydration Lounge HydrationL.com

One day, he reached the breaking point and attempted to end his life. “The only reason I'm still here is because my handgun jammed,” he said. “That failure turned out to be the reason I got a second chance.” Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other podcast platforms. Finding Hope Through Horses That second chance came through an unexpected source, horses. Introduced to equine care by a new girlfriend, he discovered that working with horses provided a peace he hadn't felt in years. “At first, I didn't understand it,” he said. “But horses don't judge. They sense your emotions. When I was angry, they pulled away. When I was calm, they came closer. They made me face what I was running from.” Through consistent work with horses, he began to rebuild trust, patience, and emotional control. “The horses taught me to breathe again,” he said. “They helped me find purpose.” Today, he shares his message through the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast, helping others in law enforcement and the military confront PTSD and seek healing. Horses for Healing Trauma: Former Police Officer Speaks. The Science Behind Equine Therapy Equine therapy, also known as Equine-Assisted Therapy (EAT), has been gaining attention as a promising treatment for PTSD. This form of therapy involves working with horses in a supportive, structured environment to promote emotional recovery and personal growth. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on their website , Apple Podcasts , Spotify and most major podcast platforms. Research published in the "Journal of Clinical Psychiatry" and led by Drs. Yuval Neria and Prudence Fisher of Columbia University's "Man O' War Project" found that equine therapy can significantly reduce PTSD and depression symptoms in veterans. Dr. Neria explains, “Both PTSD patients and horses are preoccupied with ongoing concerns about trust and safety. This innovative therapy facilitates bonding, overcoming fear, and re-establishing confidence. One must build trust with a horse for it to warm to you.” A separate study cited by "Psychiatrist.com" showed remarkable results in veterans who participated in an eight-session Equine-Assisted Therapy for PTSD program. Among 63 participants, 50% showed clinically significant improvement in symptoms that continued months after treatment ended. How Horses Heal Trauma, Horses for Healing Trauma: Former Police Officer Speaks. Horses have an extraordinary ability to mirror human emotions. For trauma survivors, this connection can be life-changing. The benefits of equine therapy for PTSD include: Reduced symptoms: Studies show fewer flashbacks, nightmares, and hypervigilance. Improved emotional regulation: Horses provide a safe, non-judgmental space for emotional growth. Increased self-esteem and confidence: Caring for a horse can restore a sense of purpose and control. Enhanced social connection: Working with horses encourages communication and trust-building. Mindfulness and grounding: Being in the moment with a horse helps individuals stay centered and calm. A Mission to Help Others Nate Fisher, the former officer's story isn't just about survival, it's about transformation. “I thought my life was over,” he says. “Now, every day I get to help others find the same peace I found through horses.” The full podcast episode is streaming now on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn. His podcast appearances and outreach work are dedicated to raising awareness about trauma recovery, PTSD, and the healing potential of equine therapy. Through his message, he hopes to reach others who may feel lost or hopeless. “People think asking for help is weakness,” he said. “But it's the bravest thing you can do. If horses can help save someone like me, they can help anyone.” Horses for Healing Trauma: Former Police Officer Speaks.

Transformative Leadership Conversations with Winnie da Silva
“The stress I carried slowed me down — I couldn't think clearly, and I didn't recognize myself anymore.” - Martin RedigoloWhat if the very thing that makes you successful is also what's slowly breaking you down? In this episode, I sit down with design and business leader Martin Redigolo for a raw, honest conversation about stress - not just the kind that keeps you up at night, but the kind that shapes you as a leader.

This one's about learning to lead without losing yourself.You'll hear me discuss:How Martin's early career excitement blurred the line between passion and pressure and why it took years to notice the differenceWhat happens when your strengths as a caring, people-focused leader start to work against youThe tension between wanting to do right by others and holding yourself to impossible standardsHow disconnecting from your core values (like fairness and care) can quietly turn stress into self-doubtThe moment Martin realized he was “standing in his own way” and what it taught him about rebuilding trust in himselfWhy structure, trusted people, and simple routines can be lifelines when stress takes overThe one piece of coaching advice that completely changed how he leads under pressureResourcesMartin Redigolo on Web | LinkedInWinnie da Silva on LinkedIn | On the Web | Substack | YouTube | Email - winnie@winnifred.orgGet 20% off Sapiens' four-month Stress and Resilience Diagnostic and Habit Change Program—which includes biological stress testing and expert coaching - by using the code TLC at www.be-sapiens.com, with the offer valid through the end of 2025.
You may have heard Simon Sinek's recent "A Bit of Optimism" podcast that featured Barry-Wehmiller Chairman Bob Chapman and a number of BW team member from our BW Papersystems company in Phillips, WI. One particular team member that was interviewed was Randall Fleming, who was a welder when we aquired (or adopted) Marquip, the company that would become BW Papersystems. While presenting our message of Truly Human Leadership, our CEO Bob Chapman is often asked: What about the people who don't get it? What about the people who actively work against positive change? Barry-Wehmiller has adopted more than 150 companies and as Bob once wrote: We realize that when we acquire a company, the people within that company are a product of their experiences. They may have experienced great leaders in their past or, more likely, they have had some negative experiences. Consequently, some have difficulty trusting our leadership message. That's okay. We're all at a different point on this journey, and we have to be patient and trust that the skeptics will eventually see the transformative power it can have—on both their work lives and their personal lives. On this podcast, you'll hear the story of Randall Fleming, who was one of those people who resisted change at first, but then experienced a radical transformation. He told Simon a part of his story, but we wanted to give you a deeper dive. This episode is Randall's story, told by Randall. It also features BW team members Ken Coppens and Maureen Schloskey. Randall's story is testament to the life-changing power of meaningful work and the power of what happens when people care in business. It's what happens when you establish a workplace culture of empathy and shared purpose as opposed to the "command and control" atmosphere of most traditional management environments. Randall's story is an illustration of when we say that the way we lead impacts the way people live. He not only found more fulfillment in his work, his whole life completely changed. And Randall then became a leader, mentor and inspiration to others.

3 minutes of your time to answer 5 questions will help us to serve you better. https://forms.office.com/r/1G564EGQkn Description Does supporting your teachers look overwhelming to you? You're not alone. Caring for and nurturing teachers is not easy. Each teacher represents many relationships and responsibilities. Your teacher's jobs matter. And they matter every day. That's why teaching is hard. And why it's hard to care for teachers. There is no autopilot at school. Anthony Hurst, who is a school representative for Christian Light, addresses this reality with the experience of both a teacher and administrator. He also understands the perspective of a school board. There's lots of combined talking to admin and school boards here. As you hear Anthony address school board members, ask yourself, “What is my place in cultivating a healthy principle to school board and staff to school board relationship?” In short, even for schools that have on-site principles or administrators, the presence of the school board is essential to providing a healthy support network for teachers. Teachers can't do it alone. Administrators can't do it alone. It takes all of us trying to understand each others' perspectives and working together to welcome each others' presence. This takes an inviting attitude, a strategic plan, and lots of patient dedication to make this happen. And Anthony has lots of ideas to get you started Take heart, and may this talk strengthen you for your good work.

With the current heightened uncertainly within the performance industry and the broader global instability, any kind of ‘tick the box' approach to our wellbeing is just not working as it used to. This podcast delves into next level strategies to help us navigate the risks and hazards of the industry at this time. We will be discussing: - Understanding our negative emotions and how to manage them - Forming a strong, personal identity. Developing a coherent identity which is not based on our success as an actor, whether we get a call back or get offered the part - Exploring being emotionally ‘detached with love' from the industry.

THE GOOD DEATH VIRTUAL BOOK TOUR: Suzanne B. O'Brien RN in Conversation with Lee Webster. Have you ever considered the lost art of caring for our deceased loved ones personally? Lee Webster, a pioneer in end-of-life care, shares her profound insights into how society has shifted away from hands-on death care, and what we can do to reclaim these sacred practices. With her journey from a hospice volunteer to a leader in national end-of-life organizations, Lee unravels the layers of fear and distance created by modern funeral industry practices and public health concerns, encouraging us to rediscover the empowering aspects of home funerals and personalized rituals. Journey with us as we explore the historical transformation of our approach to death and mourning, and how societal norms have distanced us from the deceased. Lee Webster argues that by reclaiming intimate acts, such as bathing our deceased, we not only honor them but also provide ourselves with an essential, cathartic outlet for grief. Discover how slowing down and creating meaningful rituals can lead to healthier mourning, turning a potentially traumatic period into one of emotional and spiritual reflection. As we wrap up our conversation with Lee, the focus turns to the financial and environmental implications of modern funeral practices. By highlighting the benefits of natural burials, Lee emphasizes the importance of making informed, cost-effective choices that honor our loved ones while considering the planet's well-being. Through personal anecdotes and insights, we explore how families can create lasting memories with small, meaningful gestures, transforming the end-of-life process into an authentic, healing experience.

Once we learn to touch this peace, we will be healed and transformed.-Thich Nhat HanhChapters0:26 Introduction to Inner Peace2:43 Constructing Your Inner Refuge5:38 Breathing Into Calm8:26 Strengthening Your Sanctuary10:50 Filling Your Sanctuary with Nourishment13:23 Caring for Your Inner Space14:39 Returning to Your Calm Center16:25 Conclusion and ReflectionSummaryIn this episode of the Anxiety Coaches Podcast, I delve into the concept of finding calm within ourselves by constructing a personal inner sanctuary designed specifically for anxiety relief. I explore the notion that the safest and most peaceful space we can inhabit is always accessible, regardless of external circumstances. My aim is to guide you in recognizing and nurturing the inherent peace that resides within you, often overshadowed by the distractions and chaos of daily life.We unpack the societal tendency to seek solace outside ourselves, pointing out how this quest can lead to a perpetual state of frustration and anxiety. The illusion of external control can be exhausting, pulling our attention away from the wealth of tranquility that already exists within. I emphasize that while life presents challenges and unpredictability, we can create a steady inner refuge—a sanctuary that offers steadfast calm amidst the storms of external chaos. This inner space allows us to cultivate resilience and strength, enabling us to respond thoughtfully rather than reactively to the world around us.As we begin this journey of building your inner sanctuary, I invite you to take a moment to visualize what this safe space may look like for you.

Shadow work around numbing, not caring, and giving zero f*cks explores the self-protective side of emotional shutdown — and how to gently reawaken the parts of us that care an awful lot.In this episode of Wholehearted Loving, Georgianna and Steph unpack how avoidance, denial, and numbness often began as brilliant childhood survival strategies. Georgianna shares a deeply moving story about her son's “I don't care” — and how meeting his shutdown with compassion revealed a tender sensitivity beneath the surface. Steph reflects on her own years of “not caring” and how that numbness was actually proof of how deeply she cared, without tools to manage the feelings that come with caring.Together, they explore how to create inner spaciousness without shutting down, and how to reclaim the part of us that still longs for connection, safety, and care — for ourselves and others.Discover how:“I don't care” can signal care that's gone undergroundSpaciousness builds capacity for love, not distance from itFeeling is the bridge back to passion and aliveness"Like finding gold." – Alma W."The best therapy I've ever done for myself." – Sanjeev B.LIVE training & practice programs:wholeheartedloving.comGet our self-compassionate body-based toolkitEvery episode begins and ends with a body-based self-connection practice, so you can grow your capacity to be with all that life brings.

Sermon, 10/26/2025: Draw Near To The Caring God Through Worship
Caring for the poor and needy.
On this edition of The Mark White Show, I'm talking with Jamie Harding, Communications Director for AARP Alabama, to discuss newly released data revealing that 28% of adults in Alabama provide unpaid care for a loved one. November is National Family Caregivers Month, and this conversation shines a light on the emotional, physical, and financial challenges caregivers face, as well as the growing demand for support as our population ages. Jamie shares insights from AARP's latest caregiving report, the toll that unpaid care takes on families, and how AARP is working to secure policies and resources that ease the burden. Listeners will also learn about free tools and guides available through AARP's Caregiving Resource Center to help those currently caring for loved ones or preparing for that role in the future. This is a heartfelt conversation about love, sacrifice, and the importance of supporting those who support others.
What if we stopped investing like bystanders and started investing like owners and “neighbors” in the story of our finances?When you invest like an owner, our portfolios can reflect faithful stewardship and create real-world impact. Robin John joins us today to share practical ways to move from passive investing to purposeful ownership.Robin John is co-founder and Chief Executive Officer at Eventide Asset Management, an underwriter of Faith & Finance. He's also the author of the book, The Good Investor: How Your Work Can Confront Injustice, Love Your Neighbor, and Bring Healing to the World.Investing vs. SpeculatingMany people confuse investing with speculating. Speculating—like day trading—is often no different than gambling. It's focused on short-term gains, trying to predict what the market will do tomorrow. But investing is about ownership. When you buy a stock, you're buying a piece of a company. You become a co-owner.That means your money is participating in real work—serving customers, employing people, and creating products that impact lives. As Christians, we should invest in companies we believe are doing good for the world, not just generating profits.Speculation is reactive and anxious. Investing, when done faithfully, allows us to rest in the knowledge that our capital is working toward purposes aligned with God's design for flourishing.The Responsibility of OwnershipOwnership changes everything. It confers ethical responsibility.If you owned a neighborhood store, you'd care deeply about how it serves your community, treats employees, and impacts the environment. In the same way, being a shareholder means you share in both the profits and the moral implications of what that company does.That's why Eventide Asset Management believes that Christians must think like owners, not traders. Ownership means engaging thoughtfully with the companies we invest in—voting proxies, engaging in dialogue with management, and ensuring that our capital is stewarded with integrity. Our investing isn't just about earning; it's about embodying our faith in the marketplace.Why Passive Investing Deserves a Closer LookIn recent years, many investors have turned to index funds or “passive” strategies. While these offer simplicity and diversification, I believe we should pause and ask: What are we actually owning?As Christians, we can't do anything passively—not even investing. Romans 12:2 calls us to avoid conforming to the patterns of this world, to renew our minds, and to discern what is good. That means we can't blindly invest in every company just because it's part of a market index.Do we really want to profit from industries like pornography, abortion, gambling, or tobacco? Our calling is to pursue good profits—profits that come from serving others and honoring God.To meet that need, Eventide has created systematic ETFs—investment funds that provide broad market exposure while intentionally excluding harmful industries. They're designed for believers who want to participate in the market without compromising biblical conviction.The Neighbor Map: Loving People Through InvestingIn his book, The Good Investor, Robin shares something he calls the Neighbor Map—a framework that helps us see all the “neighbors” affected by a business.God's command to “love your neighbor as yourself” (Leviticus 19) isn't abstract. It applies to the business world. At Eventide, they have identified six key neighbors every company should serve:Customers – Are the company's products truly good for those who use them?Employees – Are they treated with dignity, fairness, and care?Suppliers – Are business relationships ethical and respectful?Communities – Does the company create meaningful jobs and contribute positively to local life?The Environment – Is creation being stewarded well? Caring for creation is one of the most direct ways to love the poor, because it's the poor who suffer most from pollution and neglect.Society – Is the company contributing to the flourishing of the broader culture?Faithful investing isn't only about avoiding harm—it's also about embracing good. When we invest in companies that love their neighbors well, we participate in God's ongoing work of restoration.As investors, we're not distant spectators. We're partners. At Eventide, they engage directly with the companies we invest in—raising concerns, asking hard questions, and encouraging leadership to act with wisdom and compassion.Their goal isn't confrontation—it's collaboration. Whether it's addressing supply chain ethics, employee safety, or corporate philanthropy, we approach these conversations as co-owners who want to see good companies become even better.Clarity for Every Christian InvestorMany believers are unaware of what their money supports. That's why the team at Eventide created GoodInvestor.com—a free tool that allows you to screen your portfolio and see exactly what you're investing in. You can also connect with advisors who understand faith-based investing and can help you align your portfolio with your convictions.We hope that Christians everywhere would invest with joy, clarity, and confidence—knowing that their capital is serving God's purposes in the world. When we invest, we're not just moving money—we're shaping the world. Every dollar we deploy carries moral and spiritual weight.Our prayer is that more believers would see investing as a form of worship—a way to love God and neighbor through the stewardship of capital. Together, we can build a world that rejoices, where profits are good, people are valued, and creation is honored.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:Back in 2010, my parents set up a life estate warranty deed for their home, adding my siblings and me to the deed. My mom passed away eight years ago, and my dad passed in December 2024. We're preparing to sell the house now, but I keep hearing that we need to use a “life expectancy table” to calculate the home's value for capital gains or losses. Can you explain how that works and what steps we'll need to take for the taxes?I've saved up three months' worth of income—about $2,300 in total—and I still owe around $500 on a HELOC and another $500 on a credit card with interest rates of about 7% and 8.9%. My question is: Should I treat my savings separately from my three-month emergency fund? For example, if something unexpected happens—like a car repair—I don't want to touch my emergency fund. Is there a certain percentage or guideline for how much should be in an emergency fund versus regular savings?Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)The Good Investor: How Your Work Can Confront Injustice, Love Your Neighbor, and Bring Healing to the World by Robin C.
