In this thought-provoking episode Phil and Lisa delve deep into the world of adventure education and one specific component: the concept of the unknown. Traditionally, adventure education often emphasizes keeping participants in the dark, shrouding activities in secrecy to create an element of surprise and uncertainty. However, we challenge this approach, arguing that it can have unintended consequences. Join us as we explore the importance of maintaining a psychologically safe learning environment in adventure education. We discuss why withholding information and keeping participants in the dark may not always be the best strategy. We believe that pushing people into the unknown without adequate preparation can have adverse effects, potentially pushing them out of their comfort zones too soon, leading to discomfort, anxiety, and even negative learning experiences. Whether you're an educator, adventure enthusiast, or simply curious about the dynamics of adventure education, this episode will provide valuable perspectives on how to create a more effective and psychologically safe learning environment. Join us for a candid conversation that challenges conventional wisdom and explores innovative ways to optimize adventure education for everyone involved. Have a question for us?

Do you eat for comfort? Most people who binge eat do and although it's not always a problem, when you do it too much, it can be.   In this episode, I'm talking about how you can experience comfort without eating food and without doing any of your go-to comforting activities. Doing it this way will help you to create true comfort rather than temporary comfort. Listen in to find out how you'll do it.   Interested in working with me?

With this 9/10/23 sermon, Mike Gowens begins a consecutive study through 2 Corinthians, an epistle of encouragement. In a day when there are ample reasons to be discouraged, God's people need regular reminders of who their God is. By sharing his own story, Paul points the believers at Corinth to the God who never failed to come to his side with strength and comfort. This is message #1 in the 2 Corinthians series.

Starting off our new series "The Sermon on the Mount" looking at Matthew 5:1-6

"He wants to give you that fresh perspective and that fresh capacity in your heart to live for Him." - Liz Wright   Liz shares a powerful message about experiencing the comfort of God, emphasizing the importance of opening our hearts to His love and allowing Him to move in the deep areas within us that need healing and strength. Through personal experiences and the Word of God, Liz encourages us to re-engage with Jesus as our God of comfort and to trust in His faithfulness. Her testimony serves as a powerful reminder that God is always available to comfort us and bring healing to our deepest wounds.    Liz explains that God always comes alongside us in our suffering so that we can then come alongside others who are going through painful trials. This cycle of receiving comfort from God and passing it on to others is a transformative process that enables us to endure victoriously. She encourages us to open our hearts to God's comfort and allow Him to purify and strengthen us. She urges us to sit at the banqueting table with Jesus, to feast on His truth, and to be nourished by His presence. She assures us that as we do so, we will find and feel His presence even in times of pressure and trouble. ​ When we open our hearts to His love and allow Him to comfort us, we are transformed from within. We gain a fresh perspective on our circumstances and find strength and hope in His presence. This transformation enables us to endure victoriously and to come alongside others who are going through painful trials. As we share our testimonies and the comfort we have received from God, we increase faith in others and open their hearts to experience Him in the same way. This ripple effect of comfort and healing has the power to transform lives and bring about a greater sense of peace and security.   Related Materials: For many, spiritual warfare conjures images of a big God battling a big enemy. But the truth is the victory has already been won, and you have full authority to live victoriously from a place of rest because of your identity in Christ! Over eight weeks, I will guide you through teachings, activations, and prayers into a fresh awakening to the precious peace and comfort of God, which is a powerful force in the Spirit! Prepare to have your faith activated and your heart filled to overflowing as you move even deeper into the heart and ways of God. You are about to discover the secrets of living victoriously from the seat of rest.  https://courses.lizwright.org/courses/armchair-warfare  

Menopause, a natural phase in a woman's life, often brings with it a host of challenges, including weight gain and various discomforts. For many women, managing their weight during menopause can be a daunting task. However, a unique and promising approach to both relieving menopausal symptoms and aiding weight loss is cold water therapy. In this podcast, we'll delve into the multifaceted benefits of cold water therapy for menopause and explore how it can be a valuable tool in achieving and maintaining a healthy weight.

At Redeemer Presbyterian Church in Charleston, SC, our senior pastor preached from II Thessalonians 2:16 - 3:5, encouraging us to pray for one another. Paul prays for the people and he asks the people to pray for him.

A casual follower will only get as close to Christ as possible while still remaining in control, then abandon Christ when things get difficult or challenging. A true disciple will be just as offended by the words of Jesus but will struggle to understand and grow and be transformed by them instead of being pushed away. Romans 11:22– Therefore consider the goodness and severity of God: on those who fell, severity; but toward you, goodness, if you continue in [His] goodness. Otherwise you also will be cut off.

This week we're kicking off a martial arts movie month with the film that's widely recognized as the genre founder, at least where Western audiences are concerned, Bruce Lee's Enter the Dragon. We talk about Bruce Lee's ability to extol philosophy through action, his unequaled power and mastery of kung fu, the story's many similarities to the James Bond film structure, the excellent stunt team which included legends Sammo Hung and Jackie Chan, stellar supporting performances from black belts John Saxon and Jim Kelly and Mr. Hong Kong Bolo Yeung, and the way that Bruce Lee and Enter the Dragon permanently changed cinema and influenced the many martial arts films that followed in its wake. Meet us on Han's island for a great episode!

Ever wondered what you should be telling yourself but not others? We've got a mind-bender for you - "It could always be worse". Join us as we navigate this intriguing mantra, pointing out its potential merits but also its pitfalls. We're not suggesting you neglect your struggles, but rather frame them differently, turning the scales of your problems in your favor. Through this episode, we aim to explore the curious balance between comfort and undermining someone's feelings, and how the phrase "It could always be worse" fits into this context. We discuss how this perspective shifting can serve as a coping mechanism during challenging times, whether you lean on faith, luck or chance. We also delve into why this phrase, while beneficial to our own mental health, may not be the best thing to say to others, especially during significant life crises. Embark on a journey with us that may just redefine how you approach life's difficulties. Support the show

It's fall! With the start of school and new schedules and cooler temps, my kitchen changes. I lean more into prepped meals and cozy foods and intentionality in how I feed my family. With that comes a need for greater efficiency. I am sharing some of my favorite old and new tricks for feeling happier and more successful in the kitchen as the season changes. This is not a recipe episode (wouldn't that be complicated?) but an episode that hopefully helps make your fall cooking a little more comforting. So tell me, What is helping you in the kitchen right now?   Shownotes: My Crockpot   Reading, Watching, Listening: Reading: Chasm by Stacey McEwan and book 1 Ledge Watching:Sister Wiveson TLC Listening:  Off to the Races by Elsie Silver Connect with Addie Instagram @addie.yoder Facebook @coachaddiey Join Newsletter Website

This Q&A Conversation is based on the sermon titled "Suffering > Sinning" on September 3, 2023 based on 1 Peter 1:13-25.

Nick and Dustin discuss Dawand Jones' first start coming up against the Steelers and TJ Watt and the comfortability with Jones compared to Jedrick Wills. 

Transitioning from a comfortable corporate recruitment career to building an agency is not an obvious choice for many. The risks it entails may even stop some recruiters from considering this transition. Although it may be a significant leap, with the right skills, mindset, and support, it can lead to a rewarding and profitable career change.   My special guest, Pat Corrigan, shares his story of how he successfully transitioned and thrived as a recruitment agency owner from being a corporate recruiter for more than a decade. Pat shares the three key factors to his success, as well as the strategies he continues to implement in building his team and driving revenue.    Pat is the founder of Palladium Point, a leading executive search firm based in St. Louis, serving the commercial insurance industry nationally.   His recruitment career spans fifteen years, and for the past six years has been focused on building high-performing sales teams for leading commercial insurance brokers.    After spending years leading the sales recruitment function for a global insurance broker, Pat pursued his entrepreneurial dreams and started his own firm. Since launching in 2022 they've taken off like a rocket.   I'm also honored to have Pat as a member of our Inner Circle coaching program.    Episode Outline and Highlights   [03:03] Pat's Journey into Recruiting - From Corporate Recruitment to Agency Ownership. [12:40] The Bold Leap - Leaving the Comfort of Corporate Life to Establish His Firm - Discover the 3 Key Success Factors. [19:06] Accelerating Revenue Growth and Building a High-Performing Team. [24:17] How Bringing in Operations Personnel and Offshore Sourcers Became a Long-Term Solution for Pat's Business. [32:32] Pat Shares His Proven Client Development Approach. [39:07] Building Sustainable Growth - Implementing Systems and Processes. [49:30] Crafting an Inspiring Vision and Culture.   Successful Transition From Corporate Recruitment to Becoming an Agency Owner   For 15 years, Pat established himself as a recruitment leader for several corporate staffing firms. He had a colorful career but what resonated with me is his story of how being let go from a previous job was a pivotal moment that led him to where he is today. Pat emphasizes the importance of resilience and learning from every experience.    Pat also revealed what prompted him to leave his corporate gig to set up his firm. His strong work ethic and niche expertise are the foundations that enabled his transition. He shared three critical focus areas that have been key to his success:   Meticulous Planning - he took time to consult with others and assess potential risks before making his decision. Niche Focus - he leverage on his niche expertise that he had developed for half a decade. Cash Reserves - he understood that starting a business may not always easily take off successfully, so Pat ensured that he had enough cash reserves to hold him over for a while.   This indeed is an inspiring story for corporate or in-house recruiters aspiring to become recruitment business owners someday.    Strategies for Building a Team and Driving Revenue in a Short Span of Time   We then moved on to discuss strategies for building his team and driving revenue in a short span of time. Pat discussed how long he had to work on his own before he started hiring the next person. After around three or four months he started building his team and his first hire was an ops person. How did this decision to hire an operations person impact his business long term?   His logic behind it is, as Pat puts it, “If I want to attract, recruiters, or eventually salespeople into my organization, I want to give them the platform to get out there and kick tail. And I didn't want somebody to come in as the first recruiter and say, well, here's your ATS license and your LinkedIn recruiter and Zoom info …I like kind of linear stuff, and I wanted to not rush it. And as we're bringing on talent, I wanted, like, a real solid business platform that people could access”   This is remarkable insight. Pat hired an operations person to establish a solid foundation for future growth. This strategic move allowed him to attract recruiters and create a platform that would support their success. The hiring process was focused on setting up systems and structures rather than rushing into recruitment because Pat valued organization and long-term growth potential.   Pat then shared strategies in revenue which is focused on his approach to Business Development. Pat shared his perspective on sales which is focused on interaction and relationship building. He also described a Rainmaker Model way of working that enables him to get consistent revenue in running his business.   Creating Systems and Processes for Growth   Pat also emphasized the importance of putting up systems and processes for a smooth start for new hires. We discussed the platforms and tools they are using - such as Slack, to organize his team. He also shared his approach to having an offshore researcher and sources to help in lead generation.    Pat advocates growth not only for his organization but for his team members as well. He highlighted the value of intentionally designing your business' vision and culture to attract top talents aligned with your core values. He believes that having the right tools and working environment in place will help your team grow exponentially.    Our Sponsor   This podcast is proudly sponsored by i-intro    i-intro® is an end-to-end retained recruitment platform.

Recognizing the need for a more dynamic and contemporary approach, he envisioned a search firm that would infuse fresh ideas and perspectives into the industry while maintaining a collaborative, human, and intentional ethos.   Today, Pat and his team at Palladium Point are trusted partners for insurance organizations navigating the intensely competitive landscape, while also serving as advisors to top talent seeking professional fulfillment.   Prior to his venture into the insurance realm, Pat excelled in technology consulting, where he consistently delivered results on challenging recruitment initiatives for global and mid-market organizations.

Today's episode promises a wealth of encouragement and hope, particularly if you're navigating a difficult transition. Carole and I discuss her book, I Don't Know Who I Am Anymore, written after an avalanche of personal loss.

Ever wondered what you should be telling yourself but not others? We've got a mind-bender for you - "It could always be worse". Join us as we navigate this intriguing mantra, pointing out its potential merits but also its pitfalls. We're not suggesting you neglect your struggles, but rather frame them differently, turning the scales of your problems in your favor.Through this episode, we aim to explore the curious balance between comfort and undermining someone's feelings, and how the phrase "It could always be worse" fits into this context. We discuss how this perspective shifting can serve as a coping mechanism during challenging times, whether you lean on faith, luck or chance. We also delve into why this phrase, while beneficial to our own mental health, may not be the best thing to say to others, especially during significant life crises. Embark on a journey with us that may just redefine how you approach life's difficulties.Support the show#ifounditonamazon https://a.co/ekT4dNOTRY AUDIBLE PLUS: https://amzn.to/3vb6Rw3Elsa's Books: https://www.amazon.com/~/e/B01E1VFRFQDesign Like A Pro: https://canva.7eqqol.net/xg6Nv Bible Journaling Finds: https://www.amazon....

How meaningful do you find your life? How much meaning do you find in the things you are doing repetitively? Do you have the Freedom? We all want Freedom. We also want to feel we are living a meaningful life. When we struggle to balance life, we typically overemphasize Freedom or obligations. We may only find meaning in doing things because we are afraid to rest, or we may only feel that rest is safe because we can feel overwhelmed with our responsibilities. Like most things in life, balance is vital. This episode explores the arduous work of finding balance.

WELCOME BACK!!! We missed y'all so much but hope you had the best summer of your lives! In this week's episode we are talking about returning to things out of comfort even if we know it's not what's best. This can be relationships, negative coping patterns/skills, or even people in your life. Buckle up, this is a straight to the point, in your face episode! Like, share, subscribe, rate and review!!
