In today's episode of Next Level University, hosts Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros challenge how most people think about fulfillment and why chasing the wrong thing leads to long-term dissatisfaction. They examine the gap between outcomes and meaning, question commonly accepted definitions of happiness, and address why fulfillment cannot be manufactured through success alone. Drawing from years of experience and real-world patterns, this episode reframes fulfillment as something built over time, not something found in a moment.This conversation is a grounded reminder that meaning is earned through consistent execution and personal alignment, not intention or emotion._______________________Visual Asset:The Pyramid of Fulfillment Learn more about:Join our private Facebook community, “Next Level Nation,” to grow alongside people who are committed to improvement. - https://www.facebook.com/groups/459320958216700The “Next Level Hope Foundation” creates meaningful experiences for kids growing up without a father figure and builds a positive, supportive community around them.To support this event, you can donate here: https://gofund.me/5c6abcf7f_______________________NLU is not just a podcast; it's a gateway to a wealth of resources designed to help you achieve your goals and dreams.

In this powerful and grounded talk, Rev. Lee Wolak explores the truth that life evolves as we evolve—and why nothing in your life was ever meant to stay the same. Drawing from Zen wisdom, spiritual science, and lived experience, this talk challenges the fear of change and reframes transformation as a natural, intelligent response to inner growth.

In this episode of the Alcohol Minimalist podcast, Molly explores one of the most powerful yet under-recognized tools for transforming your relationship with alcohol: the language you use in your thoughts.She explains how common phrases like “I need a drink” or “I deserve this glass of wine” are not just throwaway expressions. These words create specific emotional reactions that drive habitual behaviors, especially during emotionally charged moments. Using the Alcohol Minimalist framework and the Behavior Map – Results Cycle, Molly walks through how rewording your thoughts can unlock more peaceful, intentional decisions about drinking.This episode focuses on two key language pairs:“Need” vs. “Want”“Deserve” vs. “Choose”You'll discover how shifting these words can reduce emotional urgency, increase your sense of agency, and help you align more closely with your alcohol core beliefs and long-term goals.What You'll LearnWhy your thoughts matter more than you think—especially the words you useThe neurological and emotional impact of saying “I need” versus “I want”How “I deserve this” may be fueling your desire without your awarenessWhy choosing your language intentionally supports long-term changeHow to rewire beliefs using the Alcohol Core Beliefs framework and the Behavior Map – Results CycleMentioned in the EpisodeMolly's book: Breaking the Bottle LegacyAlcohol Core Beliefs worksheetThe Behavior Map – Results CycleNew program announcement: Mostly Dry January – The Daily A daily support experience launching this January to help you stay focused, inspired, and mindful throughout the month.Key Quote“Your thoughts are not just background noise—they're the engine behind your emotions and actions.

When you catch yourself thinking “I need a drink” or “I deserve this,” pause and reframe it. Try saying “I want a drink” or “I choose to have a drink” and notice the emotional difference.Language is the entry point to lasting change.Low risk drinking guidelines from the NIAAA:Healthy men under 65:No more than 4 drinks in one day and no more than 14 drinks per week.Healthy women (all ages) and healthy men 65 and older:No more than 3 drinks in one day and no more than 7 drinks per week.One drink is defined as 12 ounces of beer, 5 ounces of wine, or 1.5 ounces of 80-proof liquor. So remember that a mixed drink or full glass of wine are probably more than one drink.Abstinence from alcoholAbstinence from alcohol is the best choice for people who take medication(s) that interact with alcohol, have health conditions that could be exacerbated by alcohol (e.g. liver disease), are pregnant or may become pregnant or have had a problem with alcohol or another substance in the past.Benefits of “low-risk” drinkingFollowing these guidelines reduces the risk of health problems such as cancer, liver disease, reduced immunity, ulcers, sleep problems, complications of existing conditions, and more. It also reduces the risk of depression, social problems, and difficulties at school or work. ★ Support this podcast ★

 Hey friends, I want to talk about something big. Change the actual world big, because the world won't unfuck itself, as we all know. We are joining podcasts across the planet for Pods Fight Poverty, a campaign directly supporting our good friends at Give Directly. Now, if you've been with us since episode 116, which feels like a thousand years ago, you'll remember when we asked one of the most deceptively simple, world altering questions ever.Why is just giving people money the most effective way to help them change their lives and maybe even end global poverty altogether? To crack that open I had Caroline Teti and Michael Faye on the show, two people who've spent years with Give Directly, knee deep in data and logistics and lived experience, my favorite combination of things, and guess what the answer turned out to be? People are the experts on their own lives. You are. So why aren't they? Different people need different things on different days. So if you want them to get exactly what they need, you give them the resources to choose cash directly, and that's what Give Directly does.No middlemen, no guessing, just trusting other humans with the dignity and agency we would expect and that they deserve. Yeah, wild idea. It works. It works better than almost anything else we've tried. So here's the part where you come in. None of us can erase global poverty by ourselves. Again, that's our whole tagline. But literally, any one of us can lift one person out of poverty, today, right now. So for Pods Fight Poverty, if you can head to givedirectly.org/important and chip in.That's givedirectly.org/important. And look to take it even further, my wife and I already personally contribute to Give Directly every year, every month actually, which is the best way to support a group like this, by the way.And thousands of you all do too. I'm gonna step it up and will personally match the next $5,000 in donations when you use our link, which again is givedirectly.org/important. So let's do it. And to get you in the spirit, we're gonna revisit our conversation right now with Teti and Michael. It's funny, it's hopeful, it's deeply nerdy, and it'll remind you why this work matters every single day. Thanks as always for giving a shit. -----------Have feedback or questions?

In this deeply honest episode of Domestic Dad: Cleaning Up The Mess, host Nick Barnett sits down with Shane Fuller—former pastor, husband, and father of four—for a powerful conversation about the complexity of change and what it truly takes for men and fathers to become who they want to be.   Rather than a dramatic downfall or instant breakthrough, Shane's story unfolds through layers: childhood influences, faith formation, identity pressure, emotional suppression, and the quiet realization that doing all the “right” things doesn't always lead to a healthy or fulfilled life. Together, Nick and Shane unpack how discouragement, shame, and unresolved pain often masquerade as anger, addiction, or control—and why most men are trying to fix the wrong problem.   The episode explores how change actually happens: through self-awareness, acceptance, consistency, and small daily decisions—not perfection or willpower. Shane offers compassionate insight into fatherhood, emotional leadership, and how tending to our inner life transforms the way we show up for our spouses and children.   This conversation is for the man who knows something needs to change, feels overwhelmed by where to start, and wants to grow without burning everything down. Shane's story is a reminder that meaningful change is rarely simple—but it is always possible.   Episode Timeline •00:00 Introduction and Greetings •00:54 Childhood Memories and Family Background •02:49 Moving to Cedar Falls •07:19 First Jobs and Early Interests •13:36 Understanding and Managing Emotions •23:04 The Importance of Self-Awareness •30:44 Navigating Faith and Family •34:55 College and Faith Formation •36:08 Theology and Personal Growth •41:39 Struggles with Pastoring •44:22 Rediscovering Compassion •50:07 Embracing Perspective and Change •56:31 Addressing Hurt and Anger •01:02:50 Practical Steps for Positive Change •01:05:39 The Power of Positive Attention •01:16:07 Small Changes, Big Impact •01:17:21 Overcoming Shame and Self-Doubt •01:18:13 Breaking the Cycle of Negative Beliefs •01:19:19 The Power of Consistency in Parenting •01:34:08 The Joys and Challenges of Fatherhood •01:43:44 Advice for Those Feeling Stuck •01:46:23 Final Thoughts and Farewell   ⸻   Key Themes •Why change for men is complex and often misunderstood •Discouragement, shame, and the roots of anger •Faith beyond performance and pressure •Fatherhood, emotional presence, and leadership at home •Small, consistent changes that reshape families   This episode speaks directly to fathers who feel stuck between who they are and who they want to be—and are ready to understand how real change actually works.   Website | YouTube | Facebook | Instagram | Book Appointment | B2B Meeting Website: www.domesticdadproject.com    YouTube: www.youtube.com/@DomesticDadProject   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DOMESTICDADPROJECT   Insta: https://www.instagram.com/the_domestic_dad_project   Shanes Website: https://fullercs.com    

In our humanness, we struggle at times to achieve peace.World War 1 ended 100 years ago, and all sides joined together as a League of Nations to make that conflict the “War to end all wars.”And then World War 2 happened.Our history is littered with noble attempts to make things right, but only God can bring peace to nations and to individuals. He has promised both! One day, He will make everything new, forever. While we wait for that great day, He also grants us peace in our daily lives.2 Thessalonians 3:16 says, “Now may the Lord of peace himself give you peace at all times in every way. The Lord be with you all.”We only have to ask Him for it. Jesus, as He said in Matthew 11:28, gives us peace even in our greatest trials and when we are exhausted. Then, peace comes to refresh us and give us all the strength we need.If you don't have peace in your life, simply ask God for it. He will provide.Let's pray.Father God, let your peace wash over people everywhere in this hurting world. Make them aware of your spirit of peace. In Jesus' name, amen. Change your shirt, and you can change the world! Save 15% Off your entire purchase of faith-based apparel + gifts at Kerusso.com with code KDD15.

Last week, KALW attended the 2025 San Francisco Press Club awards… and left with five wins! This next story was reported back in February, and took home an award for ‘Best Reporting'. When it first aired, organizers in California had been working for months to spread the word about this helpline/ a helpline for perpetrators of domestic and intimate partner violence. You heard that right. A helpline for perpetrators, not victims. It's an unusual approach to a serious problem: Rates of domestic violence in the U.S. are high, and they got even worse during the pandemic. The helpline – A Call for Change – promises anonymity to its callers. And their goal is to provide a non-carceral approach to preventing domestic and intimate partner violence. 

The only person who can do your inside work is you! If you never choose to change it falls on you! Therefore, it is you who is responsible and accountable for your own life! Stop giving your power to people and things to prevent you from healing, loving yourself, and gaining mental maturity!Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/relationships-and-relatable-life-chronicles--4126439/support.

This is the prophetic challenge, God is saying to us in Haggai 2.3: ‘Who is left among you that saw this House in its first glory – and how do you see it now?!!' This is the challenge to the Church and to our nations: something HAS to happen to dramatically CHANGE us. There have been times in my own life when I have had to experience this dramatic change and transformation. It was never a change of direction. My staff will tell you that what I wrote when I was fifteen in my magazine ‘The Evangelist', is EXACTLY what I say now. What God put in my heart then, is EXACTLY what God is fulfilling in my life now. So the direction has never changed – but I have had to have the renewing. Without those times when God has stopped me, put me in a prison, laid me aside, cancer, or any other thing – there has had to be that dramatic realisation in my life of the need of change. God is today saying to the Church EXACTLY what He was saying here to Israel through the prophet Haggai! I want to challenge you, every one of you – who is there still here in Britain (or wherever you are) who saw the Glory of God in this land, who saw the Power of God in the churches, who saw the repentance, who saw the demonstration of the Holy Spirit? I would say to you, what do you see now? Desolation. You don't hear a call to repentance, you don't see the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. I would say to you – the Glory has gone. And God is saying in this Scripture in Haggai, the Glory has departed from the House of God! WE are the House of God. And the Glory has gone! We have got to bring back the Glory and the Power into the House of God!

Gary Wimmer is a respected spiritual teacher, author, and former NASA engineer whose life-altering near-death–like experience in 1977 propelled him into deep exploration of consciousness, higher awareness, and universal truth. In The Great Awakening: What It Is and Why It Is Happening, Wimmer explains the global shift in human consciousness as a purposeful evolutionary process rather than chaos or coincidence. Drawing from science, spirituality, and firsthand insight, he describes the awakening as humanity's gradual remembrance of its divine origin, interconnectedness, and responsibility to live with compassion, awareness, and truth. Wimmer's perspective offers clarity and hope, helping people understand why long-standing systems are breaking down and how this transformation is guiding humanity toward a higher state of consciousness.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-x-zone-radio-tv-show--1078348/support.Please note that all XZBN radio and/or television shows are Copyright © REL-MAR McConnell Meda Company, Niagara, Ontario, Canada – www.rel-mar.com.

Unlike mainstream outlets that often sanitize, soften, or ignore stories that challenge Trump and his allies, TWATNews digs deeper to deliver hard-hitting articles, investigative features, and sharp commentary that mainstream media won't touch.These are stories and articles that you will not read anywhere else.Our mission is simple: to expose corruption, lies, and authoritarian tendencies while giving voice to the perspectives and evidence that are often marginalized or buried by corporate-controlled media

In this powerful conversation, I'm joined by international mindset and business coach Shelley Bosworth to unpack the real work behind building a courageous mindset. We dive into the practical side of mindset growth — what it looks like day-to-day for ambitious clinicians in business, and how confidence isn't the prerequisite for action — it's the result of it.Shelley shares her leap-from-corporate story, the link between mindset and burnout, why fear of success is more common than you think, and how to stop comparing yourself to others. If you've ever said “I just need more confidence,” this episode will help you reframe that thinking and offer a clear path forward.

If you've ever struggled to keep up with your self-care, this podcast is for you. Explore how to make self-kindness simple, sustainable, and genuinely nourishing—one tiny step at a time.Start Small, Stay Kind: The Art of Gentle Self-CareLet's be honest: sometimes self-care sounds like another item on the ever-growing to-do list. But what if you let yourself off the hook? What if you started so small that it felt almost effortless? Imagine celebrating putting on your shoes—never mind running the marathon.That's the spirit I want you to bring to your self-care practice. It's not about grand gestures or perfect routines. It's about noticing the little things, and showing yourself a bit of kindness, even (especially!) when you're feeling stuck.Want some help?We've all been there—beyond exhausted. If you'd like help with an energetic reboot, book a session now through the Jane app or look through our courses and sessions to learn more about how we can help you reactivate your self-care routinesYour Life Runs on TracksThink about your everyday routines. You probably sleep on the same side of the bed, drink your coffee the same way, and set up your day with familiar little rituals. Our bodies and minds move in these well-worn tracks, and there's comfort in that. But what happens when there's friction—when the path isn't clear?Imagine if, every night, you had to move all your furniture just to get into bed. Suddenly, bedtime becomes a Herculean task. That's what it's like when you load up your self-care practice with obstacles, or tell yourself you have to “make up” for lost time by doubling your efforts. That's a recipe for shame and exhaustion, not healing.Celebrate the StartHere's a radical idea: reward yourself just for starting. Give yourself a metaphorical sticker for beginning your meditation, not for reaching some blissful state. Take the pressure off. The hardest part of any practice is showing up, so let that be your win.If you haven't worked out in a week, you don't need to punish yourself with an extra-long gym session. Just put on your sneakers. Just drive to the gym. Let that be enough. Friction is the enemy, so design your routines to be as downhill as possible. Pack your gym bag and leave it in the car. Create a meditation nook that's inviting, not cluttered.Remove the ResistanceIf your meditation cushion is buried under laundry, you're not going to use it. That's not a failure—it's just a sign to make your practice easier. Be curious, not judgmental. Didn't meditate today? Instead of beating yourself up, ask: “What tiny shift could help tomorrow?” Maybe you meditate lying down instead of sitting. Maybe you wait until the kids are asleep. Maybe your self-care looks like two mindful sips of tea, or doodling on a scrap of paper.Plug Yourself InWe all remember to charge our phones. What if you used plugging in your device as a cue to check in with yourself? What would recharge you right now? Is it a moment with your favourite crystal, a mindful walk, or a page of a beloved book? Layer these micro-moments throughout your day. Change your sheets. Light a candle. Sip something warm. Each act of care, no matter how small, builds a resilient safety net for when life gets messy.Weave Self-Care Into Everyday LifeDon't wait for perfect circumstances to practice self-care. Seize the in-between moments: a red light, a line at the store, five quiet minutes during naptime. Ground yourself when chaos erupts because then your calm helps those around you, too. Notice beauty in the ordinary: sunlight on the wall, birds outside your window, the changing moon. Let these be invitations to return to yourself.The Power Is in ReturningYou will fall away from your practice. That's not failure, that's life. The magic is in returning, gently, again and again. Every time you come back, you strengthen your resilience. Every slip reminds you what truly matters.So, start small. Remove the friction. Celebrate every return. Give yourself more grace than you think you need. You're doing more than you realize, and it all counts. Keep weaving those moments of care into your days—you've got this.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Hosts Kevin Palmieri and Alan Lazaros challenge a common misconception in self-improvement. Most people are not stuck because they lack drive. They are stuck because they are building on the wrong foundation. This episode reframes what real personal development requires when results matter over the long term. Through lived experience and hard-earned insight, Kevin and Alan unpack the invisible factors that separate progress from stagnation and why some people consistently earn trust, momentum, and opportunity while others do not.If you want sustainable growth, sharper decisions, and real progress in your self-improvement journey, this episode clarifies what serious personal development actually requires._______________________Learn more about:The “Next Level Hope Foundation” creates meaningful experiences for kids growing up without a father figure and builds a positive, supportive community around them.To support this event, you can donate here: https://gofund.me/5c6abcf7f_______________________NLU is not just a podcast; it's a gateway to a wealth of resources designed to help you achieve your goals and dreams.

Sermon Summary Title: Fall on Your Knees Speaker: Nick Lugg Context: A Christmas message exploring the true cost and response required by the coming of Jesus. Overview: In this message, Nick Lugg challenges the congregation to move past the sentimental traditions of Christmas and confront the reality of who Jesus is. Referencing the line "Fall on your knees" from O Holy Night, the sermon asks a central question: "What is Jesus worth to you?" Key Themes: Response is Mandatory: Just like the Shepherds, Wise Men, and King Herod, no one can remain neutral to Jesus. His presence demands a response—either worship or resistance. Worship as Surrender: True worship isn't just singing songs; it is a life posture of "falling on your knees." Nick uses the imagery of the 24 Elders in Revelation casting down their crowns to illustrate surrendering our status, identity, and security to God. Jesus is Central, Not an Add-on: The sermon warns against treating Jesus like an "interior decorator" who just enhances our existing lives. Instead, He often comes as a "wrecking ball," dismantling our wrong priorities to rebuild us on a better foundation. The Call to Re-evaluate: Listeners are urged to identify what "crowns" they are holding onto—career, reputation, comfort, or sin—and to determine if those things are worth more to them than Jesus. Audio Transcript [00:00] Nick Lugg: Good morning. Congregation: Good morning. Nick Lugg: Happy Christmas. Not quite there. We, um... Oh look, it's there. Because it's Christmas we are going to do PowerPoint. Now, this is not my primary skill set, so it's a bit like rubbing your stomach, patting your head, and standing on a beach ball all at the same time. So I'm hoping to remember to press the button at the right time. [00:26] Our prayer and our desire all the time—and always has been every Christmas—is to enjoy the Christmas season, to enjoy the atmosphere, to enjoy all that Christmas is to us. But at the same time, by God's grace, crack it open and get to the reality of what God is wanting to say to us each and every time. We can't be reduced to people that just do traditions. That just do, um, repeat—you know, we just get on rinse and repeat every year. Same thing: bring out the same songs, do the same things, go through the same motions. Because God has always got something fresh to say to us. [01:05] And that's why we've had this mini-series over Christmas where we've, uh... the eagle-eyed amongst you will know that it's been related to the carol O Holy Night. The first one—I think they were slightly in the wrong order, but it doesn't matter because we've got grace—but the first one Johnny spoke was "A weary world rejoices." And then I think Andy, uh, last week was speaking on "The thrill of hope." [01:32] And it's just those... just those lines have so much relevance and so much resonance for us in the world that we live in and the lives that we are leading. A weary world rejoices. But yet, and behind everything that we seek to do as a church, and everything we seek to begin, is to bring that thrill of hope. But as the curtains open, and as heaven is drawn back, and as we begin to see all that is going on behind Christmas, there is also the response, which is: Fall on your knees. [02:07] And the question this morning: What is Jesus worth to you? What is Jesus worth to me? That if we don't come out of Christmas with a greater sense... You know, we've sung these majestic carols—Adore, come let us adore, let's worship Him, and all the other lines that I've forgotten. You know, they—but they are majestic, honestly. But... you know, we adore Him. But if we don't actually adore Him, if we don't actually wrestle with the question: What does, therefore, it mean that He's worth to me? How does His coming—Christmas, the coming of Christ—how does His coming impact my life? How does it change the shape and the way that I think and the way that I act and the way that I live this life that He's given me? [02:54] What is Jesus worth to me? Oh look... [clicks clicker]. So the real story of Christmas, we say it every year, it's not sentimental, is it? But it's one of humility. Anonymity. Struggle. And the telling and the retelling of the story of Mary and Joseph and all that they went through doesn't really ever quite connect and communicate what it must have been like for them to experience what they experienced. [03:22] There was pain. Discomfort. Fear. Anxiety, no doubt. Stress. Uncertainty. Tears. Maybe there were short tempers. There were... there were all sorts of things going on that we would instantly relate to, and yet we don't see on the Christmas cards. But it's into that world, not the Christmas card world, that Jesus came. Jesus came to our world. We might think, "Well, it was all right, you know, Christmas was just so lovely and everything was just so beautiful and there was like shining tinsel and angels and shepherds and it's all so peaceful and everything else on the Christmas cards." But what about us? What about Sheffield? What about Jordanthorpe, Batemoor? What about where I live? What about my background? What about my world? Jesus came into that world. [04:15] And everyone who encountered Jesus had to respond. And the question for us today is the same. As we ask "What is Jesus worth to me?", how do I respond to Him? How do I respond to the fact that He has come? Not just come to the world, not just come to all people—He's come into my life. How do I respond, therefore, to this majestic appearance? [04:42] He's the Son of God. [Struggles with clicker] Is that the one? This is where it all goes wrong, you see. Anyway, it don't matter... [Adjusts slides]. He comes on the margins of society. He's ignored by society. He's unnoticed by society. He's born away from comfort and privilege. The Bible tells us in Philippians that He, though being in very nature God, He didn't consider equality with God something to be grasped, but He came down, took on the very nature of a servant. He took the opposite of what we would think somebody of His power and authority had. [05:22] I was... saw an article or a video report about Air Force One—the President of the United States' plane. You know how when it flies around, all the preparations and all the protection that it has, you know, fighter jet escorts and all of that. None of that for Jesus. But even as a baby, before He ever taught anything, before He said anything—He just cried like babies do—before He healed anyone, before He performed a miracle, He provoked profound responses. [05:54] You know, the first miracle we read about was when He turned water into wine at a wedding. He was an adult. But before all of that, the story of Christmas is about the responses that people made to who He was. Not what He did. Who He is is what makes a difference in our lives and causes us to respond. [06:14] And so we have the Shepherds. Ordinary people. Caught in their routines. But shaken awake by God to say: "Good news of great joy for all the earth, a Savior is born." Pointing the way to Him. And so they got up from their routine, they got up from their humdrum existence, and they left everything to go and see Him, to go and worship Him. [06:37] The Wise Men. Men of influence and education. They were willing to travel hundreds of miles and bring costly gifts because He was worth it. That's not an easy thing to do. It's not easy to travel. You might think it's easy... you know, even traveling these days, going to Zambia or going to Nepal, it's a... it's a consideration. Even just sitting still doing nothing on a plane. Let alone getting on a camel and going hundreds and hundreds of miles. But they considered that they needed to respond to what they had heard and what they had seen. [07:11] There was King Herod. He was a king with wealth and power and influence and all the things that the world could give him. And yet he saw Jesus as a threat and said He's worth eliminating. He wanted... he responded to Jesus. There's no neutrality. One baby, three responses, but everyone responds. There is no neutrality when it comes to Jesus. When He comes into our world, there is no neutrality for us today. When He comes into... we have to respond. We have to ask: What does His coming demand of me? What is He worth to me? What do I do... what do I do about His coming? [07:51] Jesus demands a response. His very presence draws a response from our hearts. Or it should do. Because there is no neutral. No matter how much we want to live in neutral gear. No matter how much we want to be observers and spectators of all of this and just say, "Oh well, you know, we'll see how it goes." Jesus demands a response. And His very presence forces a collision with our priorities. He comes into our hearts. [08:19] I remember that experience. I've given my testimony before, but I remember how I was like a spectator. I was somebody who was beginning to think, when I was 17 years old, and thinking, "Oh yeah, I think I believe in Jesus. I think He's real. I think..." and I went through all of that process for a year. But at that moment that I asked Him to come into my life—BANG—there was that explosion. Things happened. Everything changed shape in my life, in my priorities, in my understanding, in the values. All of that had to be reassessed. [08:50] When Jesus comes into our world, everything has to be reassessed. When He steps into someone's world... when He steps into your world... you cannot carry on as before. I cannot carry on just as before. Everything that we hold dear. Everything that we love. Everything that shapes our identity, that makes us say, "Well this is who I am." Jesus confronts it. He collides with it. Causes it to change shape permanently and forever. [09:20] Not just an emotional moment where we just say, "Oh I think I believe in Jesus now." But actually He physically comes... and He comes into our hearts, He changes the shape of everything from the inside out. Everything that commands our time, our energy, our attention has to be reassessed in the light of Jesus coming. All of it challenged by that one question: Is it worth more to me than Jesus? [09:44] I remember when I was on a mission trip one time in Russia—in the old Soviet Union actually, I can say it now, we had to keep it secret in those days. But, um, we went and there was somebody that was really taken with the Gospel message and they were listening to it all. And they were saying to the person who was sharing with them, they said, "But if I become a Christian though, do I have to... do I have to stop smoking?" And the person was like getting into a bit of a twist, you know, "Oh well, you know, God understands us and God doesn't judge..." and trying to explain it all. [10:14] And then there was this evangelist guy that was with us who was much more to the point. He just came in and said, "Yes. You do." He said, "And if you ask me if I believe in Jesus, do I have to stop wearing blue jeans? I tell you: Yes, you do." He said, "Because it's not about the smoking, it's not about the blue jeans, it's not about the whatever. But the very fact that you're asking that question means that there is a confrontation with what you want. With what you hold dear. Is it worth more to you than Jesus? Give it up! Change it! Change shape!" That's what happened at Christmas. Jesus came into our lives. And so those little questions that come in the light of Jesus... they should become irrelevant. "Can I still do this? Can I still do that?" Why are you asking those questions? Jesus is worth more than all of it. [10:59] And so we have to reassess our priorities. That's what happened at Christmas. So the Shepherds left their livelihood. They left... presumably they left the sheep... couldn't have taken all the sheep to see Jesus, could they? The Wise Men gave their treasure. Herod protected his throne. And we do the same. When Jesus comes, we have to respond. Either we worship, or we resist. There is no neutrality. [11:27] Worship is more than a song. "For a song in itself is not what you have required." And the rest of it. It's not just what happens on a Sunday, is it? We enjoy it. We enjoy the worship. We enjoy our singing. But we call it "worship," we label it "worship," and yet there is so much more to worship. Worship is not an event. Worship is not 30 minutes. Worship is a life posture. It's a life position. It's a life decision that says: "Come what may, Jesus, you are worth it. You are worth my life. You are worth everything I have, everything I can give you." [12:02] I remember a friend of mine who was on mission in India, and he took a team to India. And these sort of young, enthusiastic people that were there, and they encountered a church that was quite different to the type of lively, charismatic church they were involved in. And yet this church was full of people that had been imprisoned for their faith, had been beaten up for their faith, had been through all sorts of struggle. And this bright-eyed young evangelist person said to the guy who was leading the team, he said, "They don't seem to know much about worship, do they?" [12:35] And he said, "Well, it depends what you mean by worship. If you mean music and singing and songs, then maybe they don't know... you know, all of that. But there's an awful lot that they do know about giving their entire life for Jesus and saying: You are worth everything that I can give you." Worship says you are more than anything else in my life. The old carol says: "What can I give Him, poor as I am? If I were a shepherd, I would bring a lamb. If I were a wise man, I would do my part. Yet what can I give Him? Give Him my heart." [13:12] So there isn't anything we can give that impresses Jesus. There isn't anything that He says, "Oh, I think I quite like..."—whether it's our blue jeans or our cigarettes or whatever. It's not about what we give up in that sense. But what we give Him. We give Him our trust. We give Him our obedience. We give Him our love. We give Him our hearts. And that is a whole life thing. That's something that brings a change from the start, and it goes through year after year after year. It's where Christianity is not a flash in the pan. It's not something that we do for a season and then we move on to something else. It's that if truly Jesus has come into our hearts, things have changed. Our priorities have changed. Our vision has changed. Our values have changed. Everything changes and it can't change back. [13:58] But our hearts are shaped, aren't they, by our culture. By comfort. By self-protection. And so we're tempted to use Jesus as an add-on. As a "life enhancer." Someone who fits in with our lives. Instead of someone who rearranges our lives. We treat Him a bit like an interior decorator. Comes in and, you know, tells us what color curtains to have and how to enhance the arrangement of our furniture to give us the best energy and all of that sort of thing. And yet, when He turns up with His hard hat on and a crane with a wrecking ball to come and knock the whole thing down, we don't like that. [14:38] His arrival demands more. And so the only response that we can give Him is to fall on our knees. One day in eternity, scripture says, the 24 Elders fall down and worship. They lay their crowns before the throne. They lay their crowns. In many translations, they take their crowns and they cast them. They throw them. They throw them down at the feet of Jesus. Why do they do that? Why the crowns? Because the crown is a symbol. The crown is a symbol of their identity. Their status. Their achievements. Their authority. Whatever gives their life value in the eyes of others. [15:20] We love it, don't we? Medals and gongs and crowns and uniforms and achievements and things that we can say about who we are and what we've done and what we've achieved. All of that constitutes our crown. And yet when they were in the presence of Jesus, they fell down and worshipped and they lay their crowns before the throne. Say: "Everything that I am, Lord God... have it. Whatever I think I am, You take it, Lord. Because it's... YOU are worth more than that." [15:52] Fall down on your knees. Nothing I have. Nothing I achieve. Nothing that defines me comes close to the value of Jesus. And that's what falling on our knees means. So we let Him question what we hold onto. We let Him reorder what we value. Rather than let's have a discussion about it—"Lord, I think, you know, do a trade, do a deal. Maybe I can keep some of this... you can have this, but I'll have that." It's a complete, radical reorganization, reordering of everything that is valuable to us. [16:26] There are things that define our lives wrongly. Things that we would say about ourselves if somebody asked us, "Well this is what I am. This is why I am like I am. This is what has made me to be like I am." And we settle into that because we think, "Well, this is me. This is just how I am made. This is how I am wired." What if Jesus comes in and dismantles the things that wrongly define us? What if He wants to reshape and rebuild and change our outlook and change our vision of ourselves and change our vision of others and change our vision of the world? He can do that. And He does that as He comes into our hearts. [17:03] Let Him replace our plans with His purposes. What is it that You want, Lord, in my life? What is it that You want in our life? What is it that You want for us as a church? Jesus. Because You are worth it. Whatever we think that we might be or we might achieve or we might... what status we might have... we lay it all before Jesus and say we fall on our knees before You, Lord. Have Your way among us. Fill us, God, with Your Spirit. Not only just to give us an experience that blesses us, but an experience that changes us from the inside out. That reshapes us. That demolishes us and rebuilds us. [17:42] Let Him confront our comforts. The things that give us security. The things that we hold onto. All of those things. Like I said, He's not an interior decorator. Someone making suggestions to make life better. But our worship says: "Do whatever You need to do, Lord, because I am Yours." [18:02] And so, as we fall on our knees, we re-evaluate what we treasure. Ask yourself a question: What in my life currently holds a higher value than Jesus? It's a tough question. And it's not coming from the pulpit saying "Ask yourself!"—pointing back at me—ask yourself. There's so much that takes place in our lives, so much that is established in our lives that is... takes the place of Jesus. So re-evaluate what we treasure. Our comfort. Our time. Our reputation. Our resources. A career. Relationship. Control. A painful identity I don't want to let go of. A sin that I cling to. [18:50] All of that can form a crown. That Jesus demands a response. That we know that we are holding onto those things, but when we come into His presence, we know there has to be a response. There is no neutrality. There's no "Oh, well I think I'll take it or leave it" or "I think I'll wait until next month and see how I feel then." No. When we meet Jesus, there has to be that change. There has to be that response. There has to be that worship. [19:14] And so, take one thing today that has become a crown you hold tightly and consciously place it before Jesus. What is it in your life this morning that you know... Ask God to reveal to you, to show you, what is it that you hold that you can actually... that you need to throw before Him? You need to surrender it. And tell Him: "Jesus, You are worth more than this. All my life I've held onto this thing. All my life this has defined me. All my life this has been the one thing that I don't want to let go of. But Jesus, You are worth more than all of that. And I lay it before You today." There's an opportunity today to lay these things before the feet of Jesus. [19:54] Secondly, reorient our priorities around Him. What are our priorities in life? Does our lifestyle reflect the value of Jesus? The one we adore? The one we sing about? What about the application of that worship? Do we adore Him so much so that our decisions honor Him? Our schedule and our priorities reflect His importance? Our giving, our serving, our obedience demonstrate that He is worth it? Not only to Him, but to anybody that looks at our lives, they say, "No, this person values Jesus more than anything." [20:30] Does our worship cost us anything? Or is it just convenient? Those who responded to Jesus right back at the beginning, in the beginning of the Christmas story—their worship cost them. It took something out of them. It tired them. It stressed them. It pained them. But it was worth it because they were coming to Jesus. [20:53] And so think about an area of life where Jesus has been an add-on. Where we've just invited Him and said, "I like the fact that You're in my life, Jesus, and perhaps You can help me. Give me a little bit of power here and there just to help me through a few things, over a few humps. But don't get too much involved. Don't get too nosey into what's going on. Because I think... I think You know Your place, Jesus." Is He an add-on? Or is He central? [21:18] That's the challenge as we go forward. Not about "Can we raise enough money for 146?" or "Can we, you know, what do we do about this or that?" What's the practical things to do with the growth of a church? It's about as we grow as a community, will we actually have Him in the center of everything that we are and everything that we do? Will He be our first and our last thought in every decision that we make? How does this honor Him? How does this reflect His worth? How does this reflect His value? Because then the church will grow with people that will also know that Jesus is the priority. Jesus is the center. Jesus is the focus. [21:55] And thirdly, reopen our heart to encounter Him. Some of these questions can be at the first stage of our faith... you know, "What's Jesus worth?" But in actual fact, you can have that radical encounter with Jesus, you can have that moment where you know that you've given your all to Him... but five years, ten years, fifteen years down the line, things can look different. You can get jaded. You can get settled into "routine Christianity." Familiar. Predictable. Safe. Christmas is familiar, predictable, safe. But Jesus is coming. Jesus comes into our lives and challenges our priorities. [22:38] And so He's calling us to meet Him again. And for those of us that have become dulled and routine and predictable and safe, there is still that call from Jesus to say: Will you actually reorient? Will you actually re-evaluate? Will you actually reopen your heart to encounter me again? Not emotionally or artificially, but deeply. Pray: "Lord, show me Your worth again. Disrupt me if You must. Call me out of my routine and lead me back to worship." [23:09] And so there's a challenge. Will you worship Him now—today, this morning—and will you worship Him forever? Because it's not sentiment, it's transformation. Christmas is sentimental. It pulls at our emotions. It pulls at our nostalgia. If you ever spend any time on Instagram, these videos come up of what it used to be like in the 80s... I know some of you are thinking "What's the 80s?" But they were good. Christmas was good. It was sentimental and it was emotional and you've got all sorts of childhood memories from there. Probably go a little bit back before the 80s as well, but we won't go there. [23:49] But Christmas is sentimental. But Jesus is transformational. The coming of Jesus transforms. He didn't come to give us sentiment. He didn't come to give us emotion. He's not Father Christmas. But He did come to change everything. And so when the Shepherds saw Him, they ran to Him. When the Wise Men saw His worth, they knelt before Him. When the Elders see His worth, they throw their crowns down in front of Him. And when we see Him, what do we do? Fall on our knees. [24:26] And so today the question isn't simply "Do you believe in Jesus?", but "What is He worth to you?" Will you worship Him not just now, but forever? Will you lay your crown before Him? Will you allow His presence to rearrange your life? Reshape you. Not just now, but forever. For the rest of your life. And into eternity. That Jesus will be worth it. What a terrible thing to just touch the surface of what it means to know Jesus and then arrive in eternity and think, "Oh, that's what it was all about." That we would know Jesus now. This Christmas, may we truly see Him. And when we see Him, fall on our knees. Amen. [25:12] Nick Lugg: Jonathan, are you there? Oh, you're there. The worship team can come back, please.

Change and learn kosher motif, and leave fear in the past.

Kashira Fatima: “I love to pamper myself a lot. It's one of the ways I know I am my best friend. I always like to ask people, 'Do you talk to yourself?' Most people don't. They share their personal thoughts and feelings with people who they can't even trust. I believe that's because they don't trust themselves with their thoughts and feelings. The day we start doing that, we become so close to ourselves. You are the best friend you will ever have. It's good to have friends. I know that. It's wonderful to have supportive people around you and it's more beautiful to have your own company as well. Trust in the process, trust in the journey. Things that you cannot control, just leave them. Focus on thinking, 'My life is beautiful and only great things will happen to me'.The day you start trusting and believing in yourself, there is a different kind of energy that you feel around yourself. You don't feel like you have to protect yourself, you're not dependent on anybody, and you're not afraid that people will leave.  No one is coming to bring a change in your life. You have everything that you would need to make a difference for yourself. So show up for yourself. Give some importance to yourself. I always say, 'Respect yourself and believe in yourself. Change your life. Come on. You're here to live your life. Don't live in that sulky grief feeling, there is no point in doing that. You have come here to live your life and only you can do it the best.”*Have a listen as I interview my special guest Kashira Fatima.Find out how to step out of fear, use your voice, and have a meaningful impact in the world.

This conversation challenges surface-level motivation and reframes what real progress actually demands over the long term. If you are serious about personal development, disciplined decision-making, and building success you can sustain, this episode will reset your expectations. Listen carefully.

In this special throwback episode, Dr. Monica “mOe” Anderson shares a keynote originally delivered to leaders in Austin, Texas. She challenges traditional leadership models that focus on tenure, influence, and authority, and introduces a missing element: the fourth dimension of leadership—service. She explains how service creates authentic connection, strengthens community, and generates a cycle of support that sustains leaders over time and diminishes the chances of burnout. Dr. mOe has led high-performing teams in private practice, healthcare systems, and corporate environments. Her leadership philosophy is grounded not only in theory, but in lived experience—building teams, navigating transitions, and leading through personal and professional adversity.   Key Takeaways Embrace negativity as a sign that you are moving into your purpose. Don't hide your failures; learn from them. Why traditional 3-dimensional leadership models fall short What carrots, eggs, and tea teach us about responding to pressure Community connection is vital for personal growth. Resilience is key in the face of adversity. Keep moving towards your goals, no matter the challenges. Why “running until you finish” matters more than winning Reflection Questions for Leaders Where have you achieved success but still feel unfulfilled? How are you currently serving beyond your role or title? When pressure shows up, do you soften, harden, or transform the space around you? What would it look like to maximize your fingerprint instead of minimizing your footprint If this episode resonated with you, share it with someone who's leading through change.

In this powerful episode of The Alpha Male Coach Podcast, Kevin takes brothers deep into the heart of awakened relationships - what he calls Alpha relationships - and reveals why most modern partnerships are built on misunderstanding, incompleteness, and unconscious need. Broadcasting from Tulum, Mexico, Kevin opens with reflections on the land, the energy, and the sense of peace that reconnects him to a timeless part of himself. From that grounded presence, he pivots into the core teaching of today's episode: what happens when two awakening beings encounter one another in relationship.Kevin explains the fundamental distinction between beta relationships - rooted in lack, need, codependency, and the ego's belief in incompleteness - and alpha relationships, which arise from wholeness, recognition, and conscious connection. Most people aren't falling in love, he explains; they're falling into need. They're entering relationships trying to fill a void within themselves. Two half-filled cups pouring into each other, emptying and refilling, never realizing the fullness must first come from within.But when two alphas meet - two awakening individuals who know who they are, who have remembered their true nature - everything changes. Alphas do not need each other. And it is the absence of need that creates the presence of true freedom, genuine intimacy, effortless communication, and deep mutual respect.Kevin reveals how awakened communication differs from ego communication: alphas aren't defending positions, playing games, or seeking validation. They're playing, exploring, listening, and learning from each other. They can fully disagree without conflict because neither identifies with the mind or its opinions. Silence becomes meaningful. Differences become invitations to expand. Mystery becomes celebrated rather than controlled.The episode dives into emotional mastery within awakened relationships - why alphas don't create drama, don't cling, don't possess, don't manipulate, and don't collapse into fear of abandonment. Kevin reminds us that only children and animals can be abandoned. Adults cannot. An alpha knows he is whole, complete, and unbroken - no matter what another person chooses.Kevin then explores physical intimacy, describing the spiritual and tantric depth that emerges when two alphas meet in sexual connection - not for validation, conquest, or escape, but as a conscious dance of awareness, play, and presence.He also speaks about conflict, growth, generosity, separation, and the natural rhythms of coming together and moving apart. In awakened relationships, there is no clinging. Space is not a threat. Change is not fear. Love is attraction and freedom, breath in and breath out.Ultimately, Kevin reminds brothers that after awakening, life still looks the same on the outside - chop wood, carry water - but the inner world transforms completely. Relationships don't change; the one who is in the relationship changes.This episode closes with the profound truth: when two alphas recognize each other, a field of consciousness is created that affects everyone around them. A relationship becomes not two separate beings in love, but love recognizing itself.Elevate your alpha, brothers.

Are your results being shaped by effort, or by something far more subtle and powerful? In this episode, Kevin and Alan challenge common assumptions about self-improvement, personal development, and success. They unpack how consistency, attention, and daily decision-making quietly determine long-term outcomes, often without people realizing it. This conversation is direct, grounded, and built for those who care about sustainable growth, not short-term motivation. If you want sharper habits, better decisions, and progress you can actually trust, this episode will recalibrate how you think about success. Run the system. Track the inputs. Let time do the rest. _______________________Learn more about:The “Next Level Dreamliner” is a productivity journal that turns clarity and accountability into consistent action. Grab your copy

How to master cognitive flexibility by understanding the biases that keep you stuck. In WWI, generals sent horses against machine guns. Cognitive Rigidity mean they couldn't reimagine the battlefield. In this episode, I break down the five mental traps keeping you stuck. We look at why you value your own bad ideas more than good ones (The Endowment Effect) and why you can't stop scrolling TikTok instead of working (Hyperbolic Discounting). We even cover why Einstein—the genius of flexibility—eventually got stuck in his ways and rejected quantum mechanics. Actionable Takeaways: Reimagine the tool: Don't ask what it is, ask what it could be to overcome functional fixedness. Question the crowd: The Bandwagon Effect offers safety, not truth; dare to be the outlier. Respect the future: Overcome the urge for immediate gratification by empathizing with your future self. Choose to see the world differently and open the door to possibility. SPONSORS

We all screw up. We all fail in some way. We fall short of goals, or get embarrassed in some kind of career implosion or other event. It's easy then to feel like we'll never win again.That is not how God sees you.Jeremiah 29:11 says, “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”   Hope and a future. That's what's ahead, not depression and failure. The Bible is full of stories of people God would not allow to slip away. Peter denied Christ, and the Savior forgave him! Sarah mocked the idea that she would ever have a child, but God let her be a mother late in life!This is the world God created. Not one of misery and losing. Does it make sense that He would create you in very specific ways, uniquely gifted as you are, and then just give up on you?Don't let that be your story. Your part in it is refusing to believe the enemy when you hear that voice that tells you it's all over.God knows the plans He has for you! Remember that.Let's pray.Lord, thank you that you don't let us sink out of sight. Thank you for setting us on our feet and helping us move forward.

In this episode of the Food Junkies Podcast, Clarissa and Molly sit down with psychologist Dr. Carrie Wilkens to unpack what it really means to help people change without shame, stigma, or power struggles. Drawing from decades of work in substance use, eating disorders, trauma, and family systems, Carrie invites us to rethink "denial," "relapse," "codependency," and even the disease model itself, while still honoring the seriousness of addiction and the depth of people's pain. Together, we explore how self-compassion, curiosity, and values-based behavior change can transform not only individual recovery but also how families, helpers, and communities show up for the people they love. In this episode, we explore: Lived experience & professional work How Carrie's own long-term healing around food and her body continues to shape the compassion and curiosity she brings to her work. The idea that our relationship with food and our bodies changes across the lifespan—and why "lifelong relationship management" matters more than perfection. Do you have to be "in recovery" to help? The pressures clinicians face when they're asked, "Are you in recovery?" and how that question can be loaded with judgment and assumptions. Why personal experience with a specific substance or behavior is not a prerequisite to being deeply effective as a helper. How Carrie talks with clients and families about her own history in a way that's honest, boundaried, and clinically useful. Rethinking 'denial' and harmful language Why words like "denial," "addict," "codependent," "chronic relapser," and "it's a slippery slope" can shut people down rather than open them up. A more curious approach: asking "What do you mean by that?" and unpacking the real story underneath labels. How language can either invite people into self-understanding—or reinforce shame, fear, and disconnection. Softening the disease model without minimizing the problem Nuanced ways to honor addiction as a serious, complex disorder without collapsing everything into a rigid disease frame. How fear (of overdose, loss, chaos, or death) drives a lot of rigid thinking in systems and professionals. Why behavior change is slow, non-linear, and rarely a straight line—and how accepting that can actually make care more effective. Relapse as an "old solution that once worked" Carrie's reframe of relapse as returning to an old behavior that, at one time, made sense and worked on some level. How naming the function of a behavior (soothing, numbing, regulating, connecting) opens the door to new, less harmful solutions. The difference between "You didn't want it enough" and "Your brain reached for an old strategy that once helped you survive." The Invitation to Change Approach (ITC) The core elements of ITC: Motivational interviewing–informed curiosity and ambivalence exploration. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and values-based living. A deep commitment to self-compassion as a foundation for behavior change. Why ITC was originally developed for family members and then adapted for people with substance use concerns themselves. How the "wheel" of ITC lets people step in wherever they are—self-awareness, values, behavior strategies, or compassion—and build over time. Families, shame, and staying engaged without "tough love" Inviting family members to ask: "How does my loved one's behavior make sense?" instead of "What's wrong with them?" How this shift helps parents and partners move from fear and control into strategy, support, and skillful engagement. Concrete examples of how families can respond to return to use with curiosity, concern, and clearer communication instead of lectures or ultimatums. Codependency and other overused labels Why Carrie has never formally diagnosed anyone with "codependency." What often lives underneath that label: trauma histories, cultural norms, attachment dynamics, fear of loss, and learned survival strategies. How flattening all of that into "codependent" erases nuance and blocks meaningful change. Neurodivergence, trauma, and substance use/eating behaviors The high rates of PTSD and ADHD among people seeking help for substance use—and why that matters for treatment design. Carrie's reflection on her own undiagnosed ADHD and how it likely drove much of her earlier eating disorder behavior. How binges, purging, and substance use can function as powerful nervous system regulators, especially for neurodivergent and trauma-impacted brains. Why we need more ground-up, neurodivergent- and trauma-informed approaches that focus on emotion regulation, executive functioning, and skill-building. Self-compassion as a behavior change superpower Carrie's journey from skepticism ("this sounds too woo") to seeing self-compassion as essential, research-backed behavior-change work. How self-compassion reduces shame, helps people tolerate slow progress, and makes it safer to look honestly at their own behavior. Using both "tender" and "fierce" self-compassion to choose boundaries, seek support, and keep moving through discomfort. Reimagining 'expert' roles and community care Why Carrie is skeptical of rigid expert hierarchies in addiction treatment. Inviting families, community leaders, and lay helpers into the work through accessible tools like ITC groups and trainings. The power of giving non-clinicians simple, evidence-based language and frameworks so they can respond with compassion instead of panic or shame. About Dr. Carrie Wilkens Carrie Wilkens, PhD, is a psychologist with more than 25 years of experience in the practice and dissemination of evidence-based treatments for substance use and post-traumatic stress. She is the Co-President and CEO of CMC: Foundation for Change, a nonprofit dedicated to bringing evidence-based ideas and strategies to families, communities, and professionals supporting people struggling with substances. Carrie is a co-developer of the Invitation to Change (ITC) Approach, an accessible, skills-based framework that helps families stay engaged, reduce shame, and effectively support a loved one's behavior change. ITC is now used across the U.S. and internationally in groups, trainings, and community programs.
