Matthew 13:44-52Some subjects are so profound not only can we not comprehend it, but also it becomes mind-boggling. It's impossible for us to understand an existence beyond time and space. For us to comprehend the glories of heaven, God adjusts His truth to communicate with our simple, limited minds.

In this episode, I'm talking about resentment—the kind that sneaks in when we keep saying yes to things we don't want to do. I share a story about my son Pascal, a pile of deer meat, and how one small “dirty yes” turned into a full-blown meltdown. (Spoiler: it wasn't really about the meat.) We'll talk about the difference between a clean yes and a dirty yes, why women struggle with boundaries, and how people-pleasing leads to quiet rage. Whether it's your partner, your kids, or your family during the holidays, this episode will help you spot resentment before it boils over—and teach you how to protect your energy without guilt.Timestamps:(00:00:32) "Deer Meat Trimming and Resentment Reflection"(00:04:22) Calm Down and Walk Away to Reflect(00:07:05) Bangs Dilemma: A Haircare Reflection(00:10:05) Clear Communication for Healthy Relationship Boundaries(00:14:27) Boundary Setting for Parenting Success

Counselor and certified coach Mary Remón and oncologist Tiffany Troso-Sandoval discuss their article, "Clear communication is kind patient care." They explore the common scenario of patients leaving the office more confused and anxious than when they arrived, overwhelmed by medical jargon and frightening online research. Mary and Tiffany address the root causes of poor patient communication, including physician burnout and compassion fatigue, arguing that "unclear is unkind." They offer practical, powerful strategies (like using the teach-back method, addressing patient fears from "Dr. Google" directly, and validating emotions) to improve health literacy and build trust. This conversation explains how clear communication isn't just a soft skill: it's a critical tool for reducing patient anxiety and improving outcomes.

When you start communicating with boundaries, the tone of every relationship begins to change — sometimes in ways that surprise you. In this episode, Mary Baker breaks down what it really means to speak from emotional honesty and detachment, and why this combination completely shifts the emotional climate at home, at work, and in your friendships. You'll learn how calm, grounded communication builds trust and respect while reducing drama and confusion. But this kind of growth doesn't always feel peaceful at first. Mary walks listeners through what happens when you stop rescuing, overexplaining, and cushioning your truth — and how to stay steady when others aren't used to your new clarity. If you've ever wondered why honesty and boundaries go hand in hand, this episode will help you find your footing and your voice. Three Takeaways 1.    Grounded truth changes the room. When you communicate from honesty instead of fear, people can feel the difference — and so can you. 2.    Discomfort doesn't mean you're wrong. Early tension often signals the system adjusting to your new clarity, not a mistake on your part. 3.    Calm is the new power. You can speak directly and stay kind without rescuing, fixing, or losing yourself in the process.   When you learn to communicate from truth, not fear, everything changes.   Get your FREE Boundaries Ebook here!

Words have power—the power to heal or hurt, build up or tear down. Pastor Mike Fabarez examines six essential types of communication every believer needs to master. From the apostle Paul's example in Acts, we'll see how our words can become tools for answers, blessings, corrections, and more.

When was the last time you spoke to a friend or wrote an email to a colleague but didn't feel like they understood your point? Personal and professional relationships are the backbone of our lives. Dr. Emerson Eggerichs shares from his book, “Speak Your Mind: Evaluating and Unleashing Your Communication Strengths.”  Faith Radio podcasts are made possible by your support. Give now: click here

Words can build bridges or burn them down—the difference often lies in timing and audience. Pastor Mike Fabarez continues his practical teaching on biblical communication by highlighting what we should say and when we should say it, showing how proper answers at proper moments become precious gifts.

Some conversations can be life giving—others can ruin everything. Pastor Mike Fabarez tackles the challenge of taming our tongues through powerful principles from Proverbs. He gives helpful guidance on when silence becomes wisdom and why choosing the right audience matters more than having the right words.

If you've ever found yourself rewriting an email ten times, hedging every sentence in a memo, or avoiding a hard conversation with a colleague or client—you're not alone. In this episode, I dive into why communication is one of the most underestimated challenges in Big Law, and how it can make or break your success. Lawyers are trained for precision and risk mitigation—not for clarity or connection. And firm culture only reinforces that. But when your writing is dense, your feedback is vague, or your tone is overly formal, it's not just style—it's a barrier to effective leadership, client trust, and team performance. In this episode, I break down the most common communication traps in Big Law, why even the top attorneys fall into them, and how to shift toward language that is actually helpful, direct, and practical. From speaking up without a fully formed answer to giving (and receiving) better feedback, this episode is packed with specific strategies you can apply right away. At a Glance: 00:00 Why communication challenges are so common in Big Law 01:20 How legal training encourages hedged, dense, and formal language 02:09 The difference between being technically correct and being useful 03:00 Real examples of communication breakdowns with clients and teams 04:13 The cultural factors that cause lawyers to avoid directness 05:03 Why fear of being wrong leads to silence or delay 05:33 How conflict avoidance undermines feedback and clarity 06:32 Expertise isn't communication—why tone, context, and structure matter 07:27 What better communication actually looks like 07:51 How to write clearly: start with what the reader needs to know 08:18 The role of senior lawyers in modeling direct, contextual feedback 08:41 What to say (and ask) when vague comments like “fix this” come up 09:06 Why it's okay not to have all the answers—and what to say instead 09:29 Spotting and replacing gobbledygook language in firm conversations 09:53 How firm hierarchy silences real dialogue 10:15 The importance of regular, real-time, two-way feedback 10:55 How to ask clarifying questions without apologizing 11:44 Why lawyers sound overly formal—and how to sound human again 12:10 Read the room: adjust your tone and delivery to your audience 12:33 Final thoughts: break bad habits, aim for clarity over complexity Rate, Review, & Follow on Apple Podcasts & Spotify Do you enjoy listening to Big Law Life?  Please consider rating and reviewing the show!

This week, we're talking boundaries—the invisible lines that protect our time, energy, and sanity (when we actually enforce them). Stef and Sarah unpack what boundaries really are (hint: not just saying “no”), how they show up in our bodies, our relationships, and our work—and why so many of us struggle to hold them. From family dynamics to friend drama, people-pleasing traps to food boundaries, they share real stories of what it takes to define and defend your limits without guilt. They also get into the psychology behind rigid vs. porous boundaries, how social conditioning makes it harder for some of us to draw the line, and why clear communication isn't just helpful—it's essential. If you've ever felt like setting a boundary makes you mean—or like you're constantly betraying yourself just to avoid conflict—this conversation is for you. Tune in for a candid, compassionate look at how to honor your needs and why boundaries aren't just protective… they're a form of kindness. 01:09 Defining Boundaries 02:20 Types of Boundaries 04:09 Personal Experiences with Boundaries 08:09 Boundaries in Relationships 10:32 Communicating Boundaries Effectively 11:41 Challenges in Setting Boundaries 13:11 Owning Your Boundaries 21:23 The Importance of Clear Communication 22:56 Setting Boundaries with Family 24:35 Navigating Boundaries in Friendships 26:41 Balancing Personal and Professional Boundaries 28:56 Understanding Boundaries in Therapy 34:57 Boundaries and Food Relationships 40:55 Concluding Thoughts on Boundaries Join our support community.

How victim, villain, and helpless stories sabotage our most important conversations.The hardest conversations aren't just about what you say to the other person. According to Joseph Grenny, critical conversations begin with the stories that you tell yourself.As a leading expert on business performance and communication, and a New York Times bestselling co-author of Crucial Conversations, Grenny explains that navigating high-stakes communication starts by examining the internal narratives we bring into these situations. “You and I use three consistent types of stories in these moments that don't serve us well,” he says: Victim stories (emphasizing our innocence), villain stories (demonizing the other person), and helpless stories (justifying our poor responses). "Those three kinds of stories are what amp up our emotions and justify us in our unhealthy responses," he says.In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Grenny joins Matt Abrahams to share practical strategies for mastering difficult conversations through what he calls "TLC" — truth, love, and competence. From recognizing your motives during conflict to accepting your role in creating it, he offers tools for staying focused on what you really want rather than getting hijacked by short-term emotional impulses.To listen to the extended Deep Thinks version of this episode, please visit FasterSmarter.io/premium Episode Reference Links:Joseph GrennyJoseph's Book: Crucial Conversations  Ep.105 Radical Candor: The Communication Shift That Can Transform Your CareerEp.148 Conviction and Compassion: How to Have Hard Conversations  Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (02:16) - Influence & Why It Matters (04:15) - Truth & Love: The Foundation of Accountability (06:35) - Showing You Care & Respect Others (08:19) - Recognizing Motives in High-Stakes Moment (14:13) - Managing Emotions in Crucial Conversations (20:08) - The Final Three Questions (25:24) - Conclusion    ********This episode is sponsored by Grammarly.

1Peter 3:15, Colossians 4:4-7, 2 Corinthians 5:17-20May 18th, 2025There is a finite number of people who can talk Jesus to a crowd. There is an infinite number of people who can talk Jesus to a person. The key to being an effective Everyday Evangelist is seeing the person apart from their crowd and believing that God is orchestrating the conversation. Every Day Evangelism is… Going public with a positive review on Jesus.Touting Jesus as the person you can't live without.Being clothed in Christ. Following Jesus so closely that you live like, act like and talk like Him. The key to effective evangelism is to shift your focus from conversions to conversations. Everyday evangelism (spiritual influence) is the act of leading someone one step closer to Jesus than they were before our interaction. Why aren't more Christians engaged in everyday evangelism? We underestimate our calling/identity as everyday evangelists. When you embrace a calling/identity, you chase proficiency and look for opportunities.We over-compartmentalize our lives. When you integrate your life, you are the same person in every compartment.Everyday Evangelists… sit on go, carrying hope with humility.1 Peter 3:15b (NIV) 15 … Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect, To sit on go is to be ready for the ask prepared with the answer. Hope-filled people always peaks people's curiosity. Hope is in short supply.Humility doesn't correct people, it directs peoples. I am not better than the next person because of my Jesus story, but I am better off than the next person. Everyday Evangelists… pray for open doors & clear communication.Colossians 4:3-6 (NIV) 3 And pray for us, too, that God may open a door for our message, so that we may proclaim the mystery of Christ, for which I am in chains. 4 Pray that I may proclaim it clearly, as I should. 5 Be wise in the way you act toward outsiders; make the most of every opportunity. 6 Let your conversation be always full of grace, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how to answer everyone.Open doors mean receptive encounters. Clear Communication. There are two parts clear communication My Part: Clarity takes preparation.Holy Spirit Part: Pray for the Holy Spirit to “fill in the blanks.” Conversation Coaching Use Wisdom. The gospel is offensive enough don't add to it by what you say and how you say it.Make the Most. Kairos means squeeze the most out of the opportunity.Wrap the Truth in Grace. The Truth of the message is Grace so make the tone of the conversation graceful.Everyday Evangelists… are reconciled and reconciling. 2 Corinthians 5:17-20 (NIV) 17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here! 18 All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation: 19 that God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ, not counting people's sins against them. And he has committed to us the message of reconciliation. 20 We are therefore Christ's ambassadors, as though God were making his appeal through us. We implore you on Christ's behalf: Be reconciled to God. As Everyday Evangelists we stand on…Our re-formation in the person of Christ. Reconciliation as our ministry with Christ. Ambassador as our identity in Christ.
