Podcasts about Come Home

On this episode of Word Balloon, I'm catching up with a creator who's never been afraid to follow his own path. Cartoonist Jim Terry made a huge impact in comics with his powerful graphic memoir Come Home, Indio, a deeply personal story about identity, heritage, and redemption that connected with readers across the industry.But Jim's creative instincts don't stop at the comics page. These days he's turning that DIY spirit toward filmmaking, writing and directing the ultra-independent action feature Shank. A true no-budget production built on pure hustle, creativity, and the same fearless storytelling that defined his comics work. We talk about the leap from comics to film, what it takes to make a movie when you don't have Hollywood money behind you, and how Jim approaches action storytelling whether it's panels on a page or shots on a screen.

What if your spiritual awakening was so powerful, you thought you were being mind controlled? In this episode of Mayim Bialik's Breakdown, Sadhvi Bhagawati Saraswati — global spiritual leader and bestselling author of Come Home to Yourself and Hollywood to the Himalayas — reveals the raw, unfiltered truth about the awakening that shattered her old identity and opened her to a universal realization: everything is connected through unconditional love. But it didn't start peacefully. At first, she thought she was losing her mind. From a science-trained skeptic to a spiritual teacher living in the Himalayas, Sadhviji shares what divinity actually feels like in the body, what happens when your attachment to your identity explodes, and why her awakening was so radical it led to the end of her marriage. Sadhviji breaks down: - Her journey through disordered eating, trauma, abandonment, and codependency before awakening - Why healing childhood wounds is essential so adult triggers stop running your life - Physical process of releasing anger, pain, and stored trauma from the body - What's really holding most of us back from spiritual experiences - How she resists physical temptations and stays grounded in spiritual discipline - Freedom that comes from “Breaking Free of the Self” - How to integrate smaller spiritual experiences (even if you haven't had a lightning-bolt awakening) - Power of holy and sacred places for us as energetic beings - How divine intelligence in nature reveals the “unexplainable” - Why coming into everything with an open heart changes your entire reality With her background in science, Sadhviji also shares her fascinating perspective on watching quantum physics slowly catch up in attempting to explain mystical truths sages have known for millennia, and what it will actually take to spark a global spiritual awakening (hint: it's not as impossible as we think) This isn't just a spiritual story. It's a blueprint for healing, awakening, and living in radical love. If you've ever questioned reality, longed for deeper truth, struggled with trauma, or wondered whether awakening is real, this conversation may change everything.

Have you ever looked in the mirror and quietly wondered, “Who am I really?” Not what you do. Not the roles you play. Not what others expect of you. But who you truly are. In this deeply honest and hope-filled conversation, I'm joined again by our team coach, Susan King, as we explore what Scripture says about your identity—not just your duties. Together, we unpack how Christian women—especially those in destructive or emotionally unhealthy marriages—lose their sense of self and how to begin reclaiming the woman God created you to be. If you've been pretending things are “fine” when they aren't, this episode will gently guide you back to truth, clarity, and courage. Key Takeaways 1. You Are Called to Be, Not Just to Do So many women are taught their role—wife, mom, helper—but not their identity. Yet Scripture tells us something far deeper. You are God's handiwork (Ephesians 2:10). You are a chosen daughter, a royal priesthood, set apart and beloved. Before you accomplish anything, before you serve anyone, your identity is secure in Christ. When we begin reading the Bible not as a rulebook but as a mirror—asking, “What does this say about who God is and who I am?”—everything changes. 2. If You've Been Pretending, It's Time to Come Home to Yourself One brave listener asked, “How do I find out who I am? I feel like I've been pretending most of my life.” If that's you, start here: What have you been pretending to be? What would change if you stopped pretending? What virtues reflect who you truly are? Your identity is not your temporary emotions. It's not others' opinions. It's rooted in your God-given character and values. Notice when you lose track of time because you're fully alive. Notice what brings you joy. Notice what stirs your heart. These clues aren't selfish—they're sacred. 3. Why So Many Christian Women Lose Themselves In destructive or controlling marriages, women often experience subtle erosion—constant undermining, gaslighting, or isolation. Over time, they internalize the belief that their thoughts, needs, and feelings don't matter. But even in “good” marriages, many women self-abandon. We've been taught that becoming “one” means losing ourselves. That loving means over-functioning. That serving means silencing our voice. That is not biblical oneness. That is erasure. Healthy oneness honors two whole people—each with a voice, a body, and a soul. 4. Caring for Yourself Is Stewardship, Not Selfishness So many women struggle with shame when they begin asking, “What do I need?” But Scripture never calls you to neglect yourself. Jesus modeled rest, solitude, nourishment, and boundaries. Stewarding your one precious life is not self-absorption—it's obedience. When your tank is empty, you cannot love wisely. Putting your oxygen mask on first isn't selfish; it's responsible. Ask yourself: What brought me joy today? What drained me? What small change would help me show up as my best self? Small awareness leads to big transformation. 5. “He's Fine”… But You're Not One of the most painful dynamics women describe is this: “My husband acts like everything is fine. And I start doubting myself.” Here's the truth: Things may genuinely be fine for him. But that doesn't mean they're fine for you. You are allowed to be a separate self with separate experiences. Instead of arguing about whether things are “really fine,” try saying: “I understand that this feels okay to you. But it's not okay for me. And that matters.” Healthy love cares when something isn't fine for the other person. If you're realizing that you've lost sight of who you are… If you've been stuck pretending… If you feel erased in your own life… You don't have to figure this out alone.

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit stayorgo.substack.comI had the opportunity to sit down live with my dear friend, Chandra Zas, to talk about her chapters in The Handbook for Human Potential. And while at first glance this might seem like a departure from our usual stay-or-go conversations, it is anything but.Because before you can make a clear decision about your marriage, you have to rebuild trust with yourself.So many of us have been trained to override our bodies. We override exhaustion. We override sadness. We override anger. We override our no. We override our intuition. And then, standing at one of the most consequential crossroads of our lives, we expect clarity to magically appear.Of course it feels like chaos.In this episode, we explore what it means to come home to your body in a grounded, practical way. We talk about early conditioning and shame. About how coping behaviors are often attempts at soothing a dysregulated nervous system. About the difference between demands and requests, and how that shift alone can transform the emotional architecture of our relationships.At its core, this conversation is about embodiment. About understanding that self-trust is not built through analysis alone, but through learning to feel and respond to your own internal signals with respect.If you are navigating uncertainty, especially around divorce, this episode invites you to slow down. To return to the foundation beneath the decision. To rebuild the connection that makes any choice — stay or go — something you can stand behind with steadiness.Show Notes:Subscribe to Stay or Go on SubstackChandra's WebsiteHandbook for Human Potential: An Accessible Guide to Personal Growth - Chandra Zas, Britta Jo and OthersChandra Zas's chapters: Chapter 0 and Chapter 10Handbook for Human Potential Amazon reviewsNo Bad Kids - Janet LansburyNonviolent Communication - Marshall B.

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit stayorgo.substack.comEpisode 94: In this episode, I start by inviting us to slow down together. I recorded this on February 8, 2026, and I could feel how loud life has been lately. Instead of showing up with a tidy bow and a perfect lesson, I let this be a real conversation between me and you. A place to breathe, to soften, and to tell the truth about what it feels like when your inner world is rearranging itself.Because today we are talking about falling apart, and why it might be the most honest thing your soul has ever done.I'm introducing you to a concept I just found this week and immediately knew I needed to bring to you: positive disintegration. The kind of breakdown that isn't a failure, but a signal. A sign that the strategies you used to survive, the roles you learned to play, and the fantasies you clung to are no longer able to hold back what you already know in your bones. In other words, it's not that you are breaking. It's that your denial is breaking. And something truer is trying to come through.We talk about why our culture fears endings, grief, and death, and how that fear shows up psychologically when we're in the crucible of change, especially when you're considering divorce. I connect this to the life-death-life cycle, to the way nature does this without apologizing, and to the brutal tenderness of becoming. If you've been feeling heavy, depressed, anxious, or stuck, I want you to hear this clearly: those feelings do not automatically mean you're doing it wrong. Sometimes they mean you're finally doing it right.I also share one of my favorite images for this process: the butterfly becoming the goo. That disorienting, humiliating, sacred middle. The place where you cannot go back to who you were, but you cannot yet see who you're becoming. If you're there right now, you are not behind. You are not broken. You are in the chrysalis.And I bring in two powerful texts that help us name what we're living: Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents and Women Who Run with the Wolves. We talk about Skeleton Woman, Lady Death, and what it means to stop throwing the parts of ourselves we fear off the cliff. We talk about building a foundation that can hold you through the unraveling, not by rushing to fix the feelings, but by staying with yourself inside them.If you're in that tender, terrifying season where everything you built your life on feels shaky, this episode is for you. It's a reminder that the breakdown might not be the end of your story. It might be the beginning of your true self returning.

234 What happens when the opposite traits that attracted you to your partner become the very things that frustrate you?Nadine revisits an essay she first wrote in 2018 and originally shared on episode 3 in 2021—an essay about her husband and the moments that have exposed their differences, for better and for worse.Nadine also reflects on what it's like to listen back, now that her kindergartener is a middle schooler and her home address has changed from Chicago to Florida. Yet some things have remained the same: life is as challenging and uncertain as ever.Through memories of wilderness hikes and a post-couples-therapy stroll that helped rekindle connection, Nadine explores how walking became both a practice and a metaphor for marriage. After the essay, she shares behind-the-scenes reflections on how the piece was written—and offers a gentle invitation to writers to follow objects, memories, and moments of meaning wherever they lead.Reclaim your writing time with the following offerings in 2026:Revision Made Easy: A 3-Step Process to Up-level Your Writing Virtual, Feb 28Revision Retreat: Craft Your Best Draft (In-person): Aug 2026, Madeline Island School of the Arts, WIAbout Nadine:Nadine Kenney Johnstone is an award-winning author, podcast host, and writing coach.

Boomer, Pinder & Rhett debate the dream scenario of Cale Makar one day returning home to Calgary, Alberta and suiting up for the Calgary Flames. With Makar's contract with the Colorado Avalanche set to expire after the 2026–27 season, the guys discuss whether the Flames should start planning now to bring the superstar defenseman home, what it would take to make it happen, and how franchise-altering a move like this could be. From cap space to roster construction, we break down why Calgary should do everything possible to land Makar — and yes… please come home, Cale.Youtube Link: https://youtu.be/kYRGFSAjUgY#nhl #nhlshorts #nhlplayoffs #nhlpredictions #nhlhockey #nhlpicks #stanleycup #calgaryflames #calgary #coloradoavalanche CHECK OUT OUR STUFF ⬇️BARN BURNER MERCHhttps://nationgear.ca/collections/shirts/FlamesnationBARN BURNER SHORTS https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLj_bcGtvvo-cW2DHEDZ6dEO5ePDmlhZc9&si=jo8iNGxT4ImhS2Y8

Change is the one constant we can't escape, and as author, poet, and speaker Arielle Estoria reminds us, it's not something to fear, but to honor. In this soulful and deeply resonant conversation, Emily and Arielle explore what it truly means to come home to yourself through the ongoing process of unfolding. Together, they reflect on the courage it takes to shed old identities, question inherited beliefs, and step into the woman you've always been beneath the layers of conditioning.Drawing from Arielle's acclaimed book, The Unfolding: An Invitation to Come Home to Yourself, they explore the five sacred phases of transformation, The Awakening, The Eclipsing, The Mending, The Illuminating, and The Returning. Arielle shares how each phase mirrors the seasons of our own becoming: the moments that break us open, the shadows that test us, and the light that leads us back to wholeness. Through storytelling, poetry, and vulnerability, she reminds us that healing is not linear; it's a constant, sacred dance between remembering and becoming.This episode offers a moment to pause, exhale, and find calm. It's an invitation to recognize your own unfolding in real time, to see your evolution not as a crisis, but as a calling. Whether you're in the midst of awakening, grieving who you once were, or stepping into a new version of yourself, Arielle's words will remind you that you're not broken, you're blooming.If you've ever found yourself asking, “who am I before the world told me who to be,? this conversation is for you.In this episode, we explore:The five sacred phases of The Unfolding — The Awakening, The Eclipsing, The Mending, The Illuminating, and The Returning — and how they mirror the seasons of our own becoming.How to come home to yourself after years of performing, pleasing, and striving for conditional belonging.Faith deconstruction and spiritual evolution — finding peace between structure and freedom, and rediscovering your connection to the divine on your own terms.The grief of growth — how to hold compassion for who you once were while celebrating who you're becoming.Breaking free from societal boxes and good-girl conditioning to reclaim your voice, power, and truth.The courage to speak with your whole chest — what it means to tell the truth, stand in your convictions, and stop apologizing for your light.The art of unlearning and mending — honoring the parts of yourself that no longer fit while integrating what still feels true.The returning phase — remembering that you've never been lost, only layered; reconnecting with the childlike essence of who you've always been.Creativity, storytelling, and poetry as spiritual practice — how Arielle uses art as a portal to healing and self-expression.Living and evolving in real time — embracing change as a lifelong invitation to unfold again and again.Be sure to hit subscribe so you never miss the latest episode!Connect with Arielle:Website:

Today's conversation is a homecoming—back to the body, back to character, and back to what it means to be a man. My guest, Mark Walsh, challenges the modern habit of living entirely in our heads—cut off from sensation, boundaries, and responsibility. We talk embodiment not as fitness or aesthetics, but using physical training to develop character, emotional regulation, and presence. From Stoicism and shadow work to doing hard things on purpose, this episode is about reclaiming awareness, expanding range, and building the discipline required to choose better behavior. We also confront the cult of modernity: hyper-individualism, happiness culture, pleasure-seeking that produces pain, and the loss of religion, community, and moral formation. Mark makes the case that happiness is secondary to meaning and commitment and that true freedom is forged through discipline, not the absence of limits.

What happens when you don't fully step away — but you stop rushing forward?Nadine reflects on the key takeaways from her semi-sabbatical: a year of working part time, studying deeply, and intentionally becoming a beginner again. Instead of chasing output, she followed curiosity. Instead of mastering, she practiced.This episode explores what a slower, experimental year taught her about identity, learning, rest, and growth — and why becoming a beginner might be one of the most transformative choices we can make.If you've been craving space to learn, try something new, or rethink your relationship with work and productivity, this episode is for you.Covered in this episode:How jealousy inspired her sabbaticalWhat she scaled back on and give up completelyThe silly and scary things she wanted to try in 2025How she funded her sabbaticalWhat her fears wereThe unexpected experiences that unfoldedWhat changed when productivity wasn't driving everythingThe key lessons she learned Reclaim your writing time in 2026:Publish the Personal (Virtual): Fridays Jan 23-Feb 27Revision Retreat: Craft Your Best Draft (In-person): Aug 2026, Madeline Island School of the Arts, WIAbout Nadine:Nadine Kenney Johnstone is an award-winning author, podcast host, and writing coach.

Humpback whales in the Salish Sea have a complicated history. They were hunted to near extinction a century ago, with whalers turning some of the largest creatures on Earth into buckets of oil, slabs of meat, tubs of cheap margarine and fertilizer. These coastal waters were emptied of these magnificent creatures who once called them home. But now, in an amazing turn of events, Humpback whales have started to come back. And what they’ve found is a whole new world of dangers. On today’s episode, I’m out at sea off the coast of Vancouver with scientists on a high speed chase for answers. Why are they coming back? And are they here to stay? Some groundbreaking research techniques might tell us.

What if your purpose isn't something you need to find, but something you remember by letting go of who you thought you were supposed to be? In this episode of Why Isn't Everyone Doing This?, Emily sits down with Sadhvi Bhagawati, spiritual leader, humanitarian, and longtime resident of Rishikesh, India, for a conversation that spans identity, dharma, devotion, service, and the quiet joy of surrender. Sadhviji shares her journey from a successful Western life to answering an inner call that led her to the banks of the Ganges more than three decades ago, not as an escape from the world, but as a deeper way of being in it. Together, they explore what dharma really means beyond career or calling, why success so often leaves people feeling empty, and how purpose emerges naturally when we stop striving and start listening. The conversation moves into the profound collective experience of the Maha Kumbh Mela, where hundreds of millions of people gather not around identity, politics, or achievement, but shared remembrance. Sadhviji explains how these ancient gatherings dissolve the illusion of separation and offer a lived experience of unity that can't be understood intellectually, only felt. Emily and Sadhviji also explore the Vedic understanding of immortality, not as something physical, but as the wisdom of knowing yourself beyond the body, the story, and the personal narrative. They talk about releasing identity without abandoning responsibility, how service becomes effortless when it's aligned, and why happiness isn't something we earn, it's what remains when we stop resisting life. This episode is not about becoming someone new. It's about remembering who you already are. In This Episode, We Explore: • What dharma really means beyond career or productivity • Why success often fails to deliver fulfillment • Surrender as strength, not passivity • The Maha Kumbh Mela and collective remembrance • Identity, ego, and the freedom of letting go • Immortality as consciousness, not the body • Service as a natural expression of alignment • Finding peace without bypassing responsibility About Sadhvi Bhagawati: Sadhvi Bhagawati is a spiritual leader, author, and humanitarian based in Rishikesh, India. She is President of the Divine Shakti Foundation, Secretary-General of the Global Interfaith WASH Alliance, and a key organizer of the Kumbh Mela. She is the author of Hollywood to the Himalayas and Come Home to Yourself, and is known worldwide for bridging Eastern wisdom with modern life through service, devotion, and interfaith leadership. Where This Work Continues The themes in this episode — dharma, embodiment, service, and lived wisdom — are central to the work we do inside Level 3, an advanced mastermind designed to support deep integration, regulation, and spiritual leadership, with initiatory experiences that include pilgrimage in Greece.

Kate Eckman breaks down why so many high-achieving people feel disconnected despite doing everything "right." She explains how self-abandonment begins early in life as a way to earn love, safety, and approval—and how people-pleasing, perfectionism, and overachievement are survival responses, not strengths. Drawing from her own healing journey, Kate reveals why emotional invalidation teaches us to doubt our instincts, silence our truth, and perform instead of feel. She shares why choosing yourself often feels lonely, how solitude exposes what distraction hides, and why telling the truth—kindly and clearly—is the foundation of real self-love. This isn't about motivation or positive thinking; it's about stopping self-betrayal, releasing old identities, and coming home to yourself.

This episode is a reset.Lainie returns for a rare, mostly unedited conversation that unfolds like a masterclass in letting go. Her new book, Hold Nothing: An Invitation to Let Go and Come Home to Yourself, left us reflecting (and crying!) long after we finished — and questioning what we carry that no longer serves us.We explore what it really means to “hold nothing,” how presence and stillness shape the way we think and relate, and why friendship, service, and trust steady the nervous system. We talk about grief, parenting, spiritual health, and the small, deliberate shifts that change how we move through the world.If you're heading into a new year looking for clarity, steadiness, and perspective, this conversation is worth everything.And of course, we asked her to play along with us and comment on some tricks and trends for 2026.Find Lainie here:https://elenabrower.substack.com/p/when-friendship-cracked-me-openFind her book on Amazon, and we strongly suggest you also download the audiobook to hear the content in Lainie's actual voice.Not sponsored by or affiliated with Cornell University
