I haven't counted but I think there are at least 40 kinds of pets in this new collection, every kind of furry, feathered, scaly, flying, walking, swimming, slithering, indoor or outdoor, tame or wild, tiny or gigantic pet imaginable. No matter what kind of pet people have, their stories are all about how their pets provide them with companionship, comfort, understanding and lots of life lessons.

"Ultimate power lies in becoming the co-creator of your life."  Turning limiting beliefs into gold starts with recognizing that your biggest internal blocks are often the doorway to your greatest breakthroughs. When you understand how emotions, old stories, and subconscious patterns shape your choices, you can begin dissolving what no longer serves you and step into a more empowered version of yourself. Transformation isn't about fixing what's wrong—it's about revealing the potential that's been buried underneath life's challenges.  David Gilbert shares how real change happens when you turn inward. He explains how ancient alchemy mirrors the process of personal growth, showing how pain, confusion, and fear can be refined into clarity and confidence. Through powerful stories—including clients who've gone from despair to purpose—David shows that anyone can turn emotional "lead" into inner gold when they're willing to face themselves honestly and courageously.  David is an executive coach and transformation guide who blends design thinking, peak-performance coaching, and modern alchemy. His work helps high achievers break old patterns, find deeper fulfillment, and strengthen their inner foundation. His book The Alchemical Journey and resources are available at GoldenLife.com  DavidGGilbert.com  goldenlife.com  Raymond Aaron has shared his vision and wisdom on radio and television programs for over 40 years. He is the author of over 100 books, including Branding Small Business For Dummies, Double Your Income Doing What You Love, Canadian best-seller Chicken Soup for the Canadian Soul, and he co-authored the New York Times best-seller Chicken Soup for the Parent's Soul.

The Chicken Soup For the Soul franchise started in the early 1990s when two life coaches, Jack Canfield and Mark Victor Hansen, planned to compile over 100 different motivational stories in the form of a book. To date, Jack and Mark have managed to publish over 200 different books under the same series, featuring motivational stories that were sent to them by their readers. The name was chosen because so many cultures use chicken soup to help with someone who is ailing. The ancient chinese used to make chicken soup with therapeutic herbs to cure different diseases...In Vietnam they eat coconut curry soup, the Greeks eat lemon chicken orzo soup, in Italy it's gnocchi chicken minestrone, and the Jewish tradition is matzoh ball chicken soup.

Today's Witness Wednesday is from Chicken Soup for the Soul "A Book of Miracles" 101 True Stories of Healing, Faith, Divine Internvention, and Answered Prayers by Jack Canfield, Mark Victor Hansen, and LeAnn Theiman.

"You can never outperform your self-image."  Reclaiming health begins with ownership. True healing happens when you stop outsourcing your well-being and start living by principles that restore your body's natural intelligence. That means breaking free from the dependency mindset built by Big Pharma, choosing single-ingredient foods over processed ones, fasting to reset your metabolism, and sleeping deeply to rebuild from within. Health is not just the absence of disease—it's the active pursuit of energy, purpose, and clarity.  Ben Azadi shares how he went from obese and depressed to a peak state of physical and mental fitness. Drawing from his book Metabolic Freedom, Ben reveals how changing your self-image rewires your biology, fasting activates your body's repair systems, and gratitude—what he calls "Vitamin G"—becomes the ultimate anti-inflammatory. His philosophy blends science and purpose to show that you can heal yourself by living in alignment with nature's design.  Ben is a bestselling author, speaker, and educator on metabolic health. Through his mentorship with Dr. Daniel Pompa and nearly two decades of experience, Ben has guided tens of thousands toward vibrant energy and longevity. His mission is clear: to make you healthy again—physically, mentally, and purposefully.  Expert action steps:  Take daily Vitamin G—gratitude rewires your brain and heals your body.  Live on purpose with your purpose—direction fuels longevity.  Cut out the noise—fill your mind with empowering information and people.  Learn more & connect:  Go to metabolicfreedombook.com to find Ben's books and free bonus materials.  Also in this episode:  Chicken Soup for the Soul by Jack Canfield, Amy Newmark and Mark Victor Hansen  Good Energy by Casey Means and Calley Means  Visit https://www.eCircleAcademy.com and book a success call with Nicky to take your practice to the next level.

"Knowing yourself gives you permission to play your own game instead of someone else's." Every person moves through life with a built-in compass—an invisible pattern that shapes decisions, ambitions, and reactions. When that compass points toward your authentic values, effort feels natural and success flows more easily. When it points elsewhere, friction appears: work feels forced, relationships misfire, and progress drags. The key to alignment isn't imitation or discipline; it's self-knowledge. Understanding what truly motivates you turns confusion into clarity and comparison into confidence. Eric Gee reveals that this alignment begins with values. His 16-type system organizes human behavior into four "packs," each driven by a core motivator: safety, excitement, self-knowledge, or information. Within each pack, the differences explain why two people can look equally driven yet chase entirely different rewards. By recognizing your pack—and learning the patterns of others—you start to lead, sell, and collaborate with precision instead of assumption. What once felt like resistance becomes strategic fit. Eric is a personality strategist and author whose work translates psychology into practical insight. Through his book The Power of Personality and the YouTopiaProject.com assessment, Eric helps entrepreneurs and teams discover their type and build lives, relationships, and businesses that fit who they truly are.

Hey, it's Amy Newmark with your Chicken Soup for the Soul and I'm pleased to share new stories with you from Chicken Soup for the Soul: Let It Go, which is our latest best-selling self-help book. I didn't really understand the power of forgiveness to change my life until I started doing this editor-in-chief job at Chicken Soup for the Soul 18 years ago. I always thought that the word “forgiveness” meant that you were excusing the person who hurt you, saying that it was okay. But it turns out that “forgiveness” doesn't mean that. What it actually means is that you have decided not to keep reliving all the negative feelings associated with whatever bad thing happened to you. You may even come to understand WHY it happened and what drove the other person to act that way, which enables you to NOT take it personally. Because it was never really about you. It was about themselves. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Hey, it's Amy Newmark with your Chicken Soup for the Soul and I want to share a couple of stories with you today from our new book about The Spirit of Christmas. I know it seems a bit early for a Christmas book, but this is all about Thanksgiving too, and you know how retailers are—the moment Halloween is over the Christmas merchandise comes out, and they want our books in the stores by the middle of October. That's okay because many of us love Thanksgiving almost as much as we love Christmas, so we always devote a lot of pages to Thanksgiving and turkey disaster stories and creative cooking ideas, and lots of other around-the-table stories that will get you ready for the holidays in general. And of course, we have to start with a turkey disaster story because that's a holiday tradition for almost everyone. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

"Beliefs drive every pattern. So people can have any issue and getting rid of the beliefs will change your pattern. You're literally nullifying the triggers." Our beliefs are invisible forces shaping the way we see ourselves, others, and the opportunities in front of us. Some are empowering, but many quietly sabotage our growth—dictating our choices, relationships, and even how we define success. The most limiting ones are often formed in childhood, when we give meaning to painful or confusing events and decide "that's just how life is." But these meanings aren't facts; they're interpretations—and they can be rewritten. Blake Lefkoe shares how releasing negative beliefs can dissolve anxiety, procrastination, and self-sabotage without endless affirmations or years of therapy. She explains that real change doesn't come from willpower—it comes from removing the invisible scripts driving your reactions. Through examples from her clients and her own transformation, Blake shows that when you shift belief at its root, the patterns that once trapped you simply disappear. Blake is a transformational coach and certified facilitator of the Lefkoe Method, a process created by her late father, Morty Lefkoe. Once sceptical of personal development, Blake's journey from addiction and burnout to freedom and purpose is proof of her work's power. Today, she helps people uncover and dissolve the beliefs that hold them back from living authentically and joyfully.

Did you know that in business and life, not every season is meant to be a sprint? Sometimes, maintaining is the smartest move you can possibly make.

“The more rigid somebody's opinions are, the more suppressed their fears are.”  The world often confuses outrage with power—but true strength lies in calm awareness. The episode dives into how personal evolution begins when we stop feeding on fear and start listening with empathy. Rather than fighting political battles, the lesson is to move beyond certainty and step into curiosity. It's not about winning arguments—it's about reclaiming peace of mind in a divided culture.  Scott Grace, author of How to Evolve During the Trump Experience: Whether Humanity Joins You or Not, shows how humour, music, and honesty can bridge even the deepest divides. A master of nonviolent communication, he teaches that behind every strong opinion lies a deeper emotion—usually fear. Scott's stories and songs reveal how connection can replace correction, how love quiets the noise, and how compassion turns conflict into understanding.  Scott is a spiritual humourist, singer-songwriter, and coach known for weaving mindfulness and improvisational wisdom into his performances. His work blends laughter and healing, using art to transform pain into lightness. Through his songs and workshops, he helps people rediscover peace amid political chaos and personal stress—one mindful conversation at a time.  Learn more & connect:  Book: How to Evolve During the Trump Experience: Whether Humanity Joins You or Not by Scott Grace  Website: scottsongs.com  Raymond Aaron has shared his vision and wisdom on radio and television programs for over 40 years.

“Resilience is defined as having the ability to bounce back. Adaptability is all about having the ability to bounce higher.”  True growth begins the moment we stop resisting what life brings us. Change isn't the enemy—it's the invitation. Every obstacle, every disruption, every unwelcome surprise can become a spark for transformation when we learn to see it through the lens of adaptability. Fear and anxiety lose their power when we shift from “Why is this happening to me?” to “What is this teaching me?” The more adaptable we become, the freer we are to live without fear of the unknown. Rich Alderton shares how mastering adaptability intelligence transforms struggle into strength. He explains that while resilience helps us bounce back, adaptability helps us bounce higher. Rich illustrates how leaders and everyday people alike can learn to embrace uncertainty, manage fear, and use change—positive or negative—as a tool for personal growth. His insight reframes even life's hardest blows as opportunities to rise.  Rich is an author, speaker, and coach specializing in helping organizations and individuals thrive amid constant transformation. After a career that spanned factory floors to corporate boardrooms, he founded High Performance Change—a consultancy dedicated to teaching adaptability as the ultimate life and leadership skill.  Learn more & connect:  Website: highperformancechange.com  https://highperformancechange.com/  Raymond Aaron has shared his vision and wisdom on radio and television programs for over 40 years.

'It's like a festival, you come back wrecked but you feel real good'Dave chats to Baz Ashmawy ahead of the release of 'Faithless' season 2.

You can grow revenue and still go broke. In this episode, Genea sits down with Kimberly Spencer to unpack a pattern most entrepreneurs don't see coming: money bulimia.  It's the cycle of bringing in more revenue while watching profits vanish, expenses pile up, and cash flow disappear.  Kimberly knows this pattern intimately because she lived it first with food, then with relationships, and finally with business.  She traced it back to childhood chaos, the need to control what felt uncontrollable, and a deep-seated belief that she didn't deserve to keep what she earned. This conversation goes beneath strategy and into the subconscious drivers that keep capable entrepreneurs repeating the same financial patterns over and over. You'll hear:

Are you the person who gives endlessly to clients, teams, families, friends, loved ones, and neighbors, but in the process, you forget the most essential person: yourself? Then you're going to want to listen to this episode because while you know that prioritizing yourself is important, Diane is going to give you permission to actually do it.

Hey, it's Amy Newmark with your Chicken Soup for the Soul and I'm pleased to share new stories with you from Chicken Soup for the Soul: Let It Go, which is our latest best-selling self-help book. I didn't really understand the power of forgiveness to change my life until I started doing this editor-in-chief job at Chicken Soup for the Soul 18 years ago. I always thought that the word “forgiveness” meant that you were excusing the person who hurt you, saying that it was okay. But it turns out that “forgiveness” doesn't mean that. What it actually means is that you have decided not to keep reliving all the negative feelings associated with whatever bad thing happened to you. You may even come to understand WHY it happened and what drove the other person to act that way, which enables you to NOT take it personally. Because it was never really about you. It was about themselves. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
