We let other people's opinions dictate what clothes we wear, the cars we drive, and ultimately how we see ourselves. Most of us have been running our lives like someone's watching and judging 24/7. But what if you dropped the performance and just decided to like yourself? Like, on purpose?In this episode, we're talking about how our self-image (how we see ourselves) is often sneakily shaped by how we think others see us, and if you're not paying attention, it can run your whole dang life.In this episode, we're talking about:Why your brain cares so much about what others think (blame evolution and a whole lotta social conditioning)The tiny question that can reveal your actual preferences (hello, self-awareness!)How tying your worth to gold stars and Pinterest-perfection keeps you stuckWhy self-image isn't about changing your body, your house, or your life, but changing what you say to yourselfWhat self-acceptance really looks like (hint: it's not bath bombs and affirmations in the mirror)Because confidence isn't born from external validation. It's built on knowing who you are, liking your damn self, and choosing what feels right for you.

Topics of Discussion- The practice of it- Caring for others first- How do you work your day

Today's Bible Verse: “As you do not know the path of the wind, or how the body is formed in a mother’s womb, so you cannot understand the work of God, the Maker of all things. Sow your seed in the morning, and at evening let your hands not be idle, for you do not know which will succeed, whether this or that, or whether both will do equally well.” – Ecclesiastes 11:5-6 Life is full of mystery—winds we cannot predict, miracles we cannot explain, and outcomes we cannot control. The writer of Ecclesiastes reminds us that God’s work is often beyond our understanding, yet we’re still called to act in faith. Plant your seeds—whether those are acts of kindness, steps of obedience, or bold ventures—and keep working diligently. You may not know which effort will bear fruit, but God does. Our job isn’t to figure it all out; it’s to trust Him enough to keep sowing and to keep moving forward.

Caring for God's Creation: How Evangelical Christians Are Reframing Climate ActionAcross the United States, evangelical Christians are increasingly forging a connection between faith and climate action by redefining environmental work as a sacred duty to care for God's creation. By understanding sustainability through the lens of biblically mandated stewardship, more and more Christians are discovering renewed hope and purpose in addressing climate change.What Is Creation Care?To many evangelical environmentalists, caring for the Earth is not a political act. Rather, it is a spiritual duty. They believe that how we treat the planet should reflect how God treats us: with compassion, responsibility, and reverence. That means resisting the exploitation of natural resources and instead treating the Earth as a divine gift entrusted to humanity. Historically, however, environmentalism and climate science have been viewed as controversial in conservative Christian circles, seen as secular or partisan issues. But that perception is beginning to shift, thanks in part to young leaders and faith-based environmental advocates who are reframing climate action as a moral and theological imperative.Faith in ActionOne of those young leaders is Becca Boyd, a student at Indiana Wesleyan University studying Environmental Science. Raised in a Christian home, Becca often felt her environmental concerns were dismissed and even challenged. Feeling unhead, she began to experience a crisis of faith, questioning both her faith and her place in the church. Everything changed when she was introduced to the concept of creation care in college by her professors. For the first time, she saw how her love for the environment and desire to protect it could be an act of faith rather than in conflict with it.A Theology of HopeLike many young people in the climate action space, Becca has felt overwhelmed by the constant sense of “doom and gloom.” The narrative that it's too late to fix the damage can leave people in despair and feeling helpless. But creation care offers her a more hopeful, spiritually grounded mindset. Rather than dwelling on what's broken, Becca focuses her energy on healing what's still possible. For Becca, environmental stewardship is now a form of worship: small acts like conserving energy, recycling, or planting a pollinator garden at her school are ways of honoring God.  And by inviting others to do the same, she's helping grow a climate movement rooted not in fear but in faith and hope for the future.Choosing Words That Open DoorsThrough her advocacy, Becca has learned that the language you use to talk about climate issues matters, especially in Christian spaces. The word “climate” itself can be politically charged and can trigger defensiveness, while terms like “creation care” and “eco-theology” feel more rooted in faith and shared values. She is also intentional about her tone, making a point to avoid “you” statements. Rather than telling people what they should do, Becca shares what she does and why. This approach opens the door to conversation rather than closing it. According to Becca, it's about meeting people where they are and establishing a common ground — inviting them in, not calling them out. The Challenges AheadCreation care is still a growing movement, and while it's gained traction in places like Indiana, there's still a long way to go. Climate science skepticism and misinformation continue to circulate in many conservative communities. But Becca and other young Christians are starting vital conversations in churches and on campuses, emphasizing climate change as a humanitarian issue: one that affects food security, public health, and the lives of future generations.  She also shares resources like Cowboy & Preacher, a documentary tracing the history of Christian environmentalism, to show that this movement isn't new, and that faith and climate action have long been intertwined. About Our GuestBecca Boyd is a rising senior at Indiana Wesleyan University studying Environmental Science. She is a Climate Advocate for Young Evangelicals for Climate Action (YECA) and previously served as a College Fellow. On campus, she launched a student sustainability club and helped lead campus-wide conversations about the intersection of faith and environmental responsibility. She was recently featured in The New York Times for her work advancing Indiana's growing creation care movement.ResourcesYECA, Young Evangelicals for Climate ActionCowboy & Preacher, Cowboy & PreacherFurther ReadingThe New York Times, In Indiana, Putting Up Solar Panels Is Doing God's WorkNBC News, Evangelical environmentalists push for climate votes as election nears: 'Care for God's creation'American Conservation Coalition, An Environmental Education: What a Christian Environmental Ethic Looks LikeFor a transcript, please visit https://climatebreak.org/creation-care-with-becca-boyd/.

Believers are the body of Christ—so what is your reaction when a part of that body is hurt? President Jeff King, International Christian Concern, shares how you can raise awareness, advocate, and pray for Christ's persecuted body around the world.

Josephine Butler, a prominent minister’s wife, found herself campaigning for the rights of women accused (often unjustly) of being “ladies of the night,” those seen in society as the “least desirables.” Spurred on by her deep faith in God, she fought for years against the British Contagious Diseases Acts of the 1860s, which subjected women to cruel and invasive “medical” exams. In 1883, during the parliamentary debate over a bill to repeal the Acts, she joined women in Westminster to pray. She was moved by the sight of the “most ragged and miserable women from the slums” alongside “ladies of high rank,” all weeping and asking God for protection of the vulnerable. To their joy, the bill passed. Josephine’s call to act justly echoes the words of the prophet Jeremiah, who delivered God’s message to evil kings. Jeremiah said, “Do what is just and right. Rescue from the hand of the oppressor the one who has been robbed.” And do “no wrong or violence to the foreigner, the fatherless or the widow” (Jeremiah 22:3). God wanted to shield those who couldn’t defend themselves against the powerful. God can spur us to action too, helping us to discern inequalities and to speak and take measures against them. He who hates abuse empowers us to uphold justice and defend the weak.

What do you care about these days? Caring is the currency of leadership, but here's the paradox: when we care too much about too many things, we can lose sight of the things that truly matter. So the question is: How do you direct your energy toward what you value, without becoming overwhelmed by the sheer volume of things you could care about? The most effective leaders are those who can connect deeply with their teams, foster trust, and create a sense of safety and belonging. They lead with empathy, not just strategy.But perfectionism and overfunctioning can lead us to feel like we need to be everything to everyone, at the expense of our well-being and, ultimately, the quality of our leadership.For many of us, the path to effective leadership begins with finding your enough. When you shift your lens to honoring your enough, you stay connected to your values and to the people and causes that matter most to you, without tipping into exhaustion.My guest today offers a model of what it's like to care deeply without losing yourself in the process, and of finding joy and community along the way. Ashlee Piper is a sustainability expert, commentator, and speaker whose work has been widely featured on television and in print media.

 Confusion between creatine and creatinine sets a humorous yet informative tone as Saranne welcomes Jacqui Bryan back for her 90th appearance on Beating Cancer Daily. This episode is dedicated to understanding creatine, a supplement well-known among bodybuilders but now gaining attention among everyday exercisers, cancer survivors, and even people with neurodegenerative diseases. Jacqui clarifies the true uses and potential risks of creatine, especially for those in cancer treatment or with pre-existing kidney issues like Saranne, and breaks down food sources, supplemental dosing, and scientific research on its benefits and possible drawbacks.Jacqui Bryan is a certified nutrition specialist, whole health educator, health coach, and registered nurse. With her expertise in functional medicine, she educates and supports those seeking to optimize wellness during and after cancer treatment, emphasizing food-first approaches and personalized safe supplementation. "Creatine has anti-inflammatory, antioxidant components to it, which make it appealing to anybody, but especially people that are in cancer treatment." ~Jacqui Bryan Today on Beating Cancer Daily:·     Creatine is naturally produced in the body and found in foods like beef, pork, fish, poultry, eggs, and bone broth.·     It is widely known for improving exercise performance and muscle growth, offering energy for short bursts of intense activity.·     Creatine has potential anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, with some research suggesting it may reduce cancer incidence.·     There is emerging evidence that creatine could provide support for neurodegenerative disorders by offering cognitive and neuroprotective benefits.·     Creatine supplementation may cause side effects such as fluid retention, digestive issues, and should be avoided by individuals with kidney disorders without medical consultation.·     Sourcing creatine from whole foods is preferred over supplements due to better overall absorption and fewer side effects.·     Dosage recommendations involve a loading phase followed by a maintenance phase, but always under medical supervision, especially for those undergoing cancer treatment or at risk for kidney issues.·     Supplements can be expensive and are only as good as your ability to absorb them, so consider your digestive health and consult with a healthcare professional before starting anything new. Ranked the Top 5 Best Cancer Podcasts by CancerCare News in 2024 & 2025, and #1 Rated Cancer Survivor Podcast by FeedSpot in 2024 Beating Cancer Daily is listened to in over 130 countries across 7 continents and features over 365 original daily episodes hosted by Stage IV survivor  Saranne Rothberg.   To learn more about Host Saranne Rothberg and The ComedyCures Foundation:https://www.comedycures.org/ To write to Saranne or a guest:https://www.comedycures.org/contact-8 To record a message to Saranne or a guest:https://www.speakpipe.com/BCD_Comments_Suggestions To sign up for the free Health Builder Series live on Zoom with Saranne and Jacqui, go to The ComedyCures Foundation's homepage:https://www.comedycures.org/ Please support the creation of more original episodes of Beating Cancer Daily and other free ComedyCures Foundation programs with a tax-deductible contribution:http://bit.ly/ComedyCuresDonate THANK YOU!
