Podcasts about Comfort zone

413 Love, Connection, Belonging, and Comfort Zones    It's easy to forget to take care of the many facets of our health in a world obsessed with value and progress. We forget to care for our mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual health in ways that dramatically affect us in the long run, which is why it is vital for us to sit down and take stock of our health and to take the time to tend to our own needs. In today's episode Sarah Elkins and Kevin Strauss discuss the importance of connection, comfort zones, boundaries, love, and how important it is to ourselves as humans.      Highlights Emotional, physical, and spiritual health and what the differences are.  How we learn and how it shapes us into who we are.  Identifying your comfort zone so you feel safe stepping into your stretch zone. Taking care of every aspect of your health so that you can operate perfectly. Quit trying to distract, soothe, or numb yourself to your needs. Take the time to properly address them so that you can be a truly healthy and functional person.  What is your reference for comfort?   Quotes "There is no right or wrong or better or worse way, it's just that this is how we are operating in the world and this is how we learn." "Value in our brain translates to love, and that's really an emotional health need. So we're try to feel more valuable, because value equals love in our brain."  "We try to show our value, that we are worthy of love, but it's never enough. It never soothes, we always need more, more, more, because we aren't addressing the real problem. And the real problem is we don't feel love just for who we are." "How many people on the planet are actively, intentionally, daily, practicing love and connection?"    Dear Listeners it is now your turn, I'm going to ask you to define your comfort zone. Consider a moment in time when you felt truly comfortable, loved, safe, supported, just like when I stood in my doorway and saw my children in the room, and thought "If that's not nice, then what is?"  Find a handful of moments like that in your life, define what it felt like, because once you have that foundation, you can step out of it.  And, as always, thank you for listening.  Mentioned in this episode  The Curious Incident of The Dog in the Nighttime by Mark HaddonThe Comfort Crisis by Michael Easter   About Kevin Kevin R.

About Sarah "Uncovering the right stories for the right audiences so executives, leaders, public speakers, and job seekers can clearly and actively demonstrate their character, values, and vision." In my work with coaching clients, I guide people to improve their communication using storytelling as the foundation of our work together. What I've realized over years of coaching and podcasting is that the majority of people don't realize the impact of the stories they share - on their internal messages, and on the people they're sharing them with. My work with leaders and people who aspire to be leaders follows a similar path to the interviews on my podcast, uncovering pivotal moments in their lives and learning how to share them to connect more authentically with others, to make their presentations and speaking more engaging, to reveal patterns that have kept them stuck or moved them forward, and to improve their relationships at work and at home. The audiobook, Your Stories Don't Define You, How You Tell Them Will is now available! Included with your purchase are two bonus tracks, songs recorded by Sarah's band, Spare Change, in her living room in Montana. Be sure to check out the Storytelling For Professionals Course as well to make sure you nail that next interview!

What if the only thing standing between you and your next level of success is your willingness to be uncomfortable? In this powerful episode to kick off 2026, Daniela pulls back the curtain on her personal growth journey and shares why she's committing to a year of being "open" to opportunities that genuinely scare her. From speaking at a 500-person conference in Vegas to hosting intimate CEO intensives to manning a booth at the massive Javits Center trade show in New York, she's doing things that push every single one of her "I'd rather not" buttons. But here's why it matters for YOUR business: the spa owners who thrive in the next 3 to 5 years won't be the most experienced; they'll be the ones who adapt fastest, test boldly, and pivot when needed. Your business will only grow as much as you're willing to grow. In this episode, we discuss:  Why choosing a single word (instead of resolutions) creates a powerful decision-making filter The difference between honoring boundaries and hiding behind them How in-person connections create ripple effects that virtual meetings can't replicate Why AI and rapid industry changes favor those who act with speed over those who wait The specific uncomfortable commitments Daniela is making in Q1 (and why they matter) How to identify the one thing you're avoiding that would genuinely move your business forward   Keep the conversation going inside the Spa Marketing Made Easy Community by clicking here.

Hello to you listening in Shah Alam, Malaysia!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds (and a bit more) for Motivate Your Monday and your host, Diane Wyzga.The beginning of a New Year can feel daunting. All those plans to kick start, days to fill, resolutions to keep, and more to do! There's no shame in admitting feeling a wee bit wobbly-legged about going forward in the face of wide open frontiers.  What to do? Gain some courage by reversing your Bucket List. Instead of a list of what is yet to be done, what about a list of what you've accomplished from the littlest things that you felt made a difference to the biggest things you never thought you would achieve. You might begin by asking yourself:What made me proud?What have I learned?How did I transform my thinking about strangers to compassion and kindness?Who revealed the meaning of true love to me?Where did I find the hope and resilience to face whatever came my way?When did I feel most content or fulfilled?What would I do all over again just for the joy of it?What did I long for as a child?  What have I created or, at least, not destroyed?Who have I lifted up?How have I defined my life?  What dreams came true? And, which was I happy to leave by the wayside?  What or whom did I fight for and why?When did I take time to play?  In my experience the Reverse Bucket List invites us to pay attention to what we've done, won, gained, lost, learned and kept on living no matter what. It's proof that over and over again we have stepped outside our comfort zone to strive for something to do, someone to love, and something to hope for! Give it a go. Reverse your Bucket List and shine a light on you. You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!" Speaking of magic, I hope you'll subscribe, share a 5-star rating and nice review on your social media or podcast channel of choice, bring your friends and rellies, and join us!

It's the first episode of 2026, and we're flipping New Year's resolutions on their head. I'm joined by my best friend (and the woman who helped bring this podcast to life), Keira Brinton, on the pod today, where we talk about WHY January pressures set so many of us up to fail!! In this conversation, Keira and I talk about how to start this year in a way that actually matches real life, real energy, and real healing. We go deep on integrity, self-trust, cycles (in nature + in your body), and the mindset shifts that turn “starting over” into steady momentum.In this episode, we talk about:Why “New Year, New You” hits hardest in the coldest, darkest season—and why that mattersThe idea that a 500-year-old calendar system isn't a good blueprint for motivation (Gregorian calendar history) Encyclopedia Virginia+2HISTORY+2Why most people quit early—and how to stop making that mean something about you.The real foundation: integrity with yourself (and why overcommitting breaks self-trust)“Your pace is allowed to be your pace”—and how cycles apply to reinventionA mindset experiment that shows how your brain “fills in the gaps” based on what you focus onPrayer/gratitude as a frequency shift (moving from “please help me” to “thank you, it's already here”)The rules that shaped my life (Bob Parsons' “16 Rules”) and the ones that still guide me today Bob ParsonsGentle content note: This episode includes discussion of suicidal ideation and mental health struggles.What to do after listening (simple action steps):Instead of a January overhaul, choose one tiny “Kaizen” move you can repeat daily. Wikipedia+1Write your version of: “Thank you for…” (safety, health, support, strength)—and sit in it for 60 seconds.Pick ONE decision you've been dragging out and execute a “good plan” today.What's coming next: Keira is back for Episode 80, and we're continuing the rest of the 16 Rules (plus some real-life stories that usually stay in our voice memos).Watch this full episode on YouTube here or head to https://www.youtube.com/@RealHeidiPowell .Here are the key moments from the episode:00:00 Why This New Year Needed a Different Conversation02:05 The Origin Story of Heidi's Lane—and the Woman Who Helped Start It06:12 From $1,500 to Millions After Divorce14:01 The Night Everything Almost Ended17:40 Quitter's Day & Why January Sets Us Up to Fail21:55 The Calendar Wasn't Built for Human Energy24:45 Winter Is for Rest—Not Reinvention34:10 Why Your Body Resists January “Fresh Starts”38:06 How Cycles Create Real Change29:40 You Are Literally Not the Same Person You Were Years Ago34:35 Letting Your Ex (and Yourself) Be New37:55 The Mindset Experiment That Proves Focus Shapes Reality40:45 Why Gratitude Changes What You Attract45:30 The Rules That Quietly Shaped My Life49:05 Comfort Zones, Perseverance & Being 10 Feet from Gold54:07 Integrity, Self-Trust, and Lasting Change55:10 Small Daily Improvements That Actually Stick59:20 A Good Plan Executed Today Beats a Perfect Plan Someday1:04:40 How to Do 2026 Differently—Without Burning OutConnect with Heidi:

There's a famous quote that says, “Life begins outside of your comfort zone.” What does that really mean? Your life has obviously already begun, so what we are really talking about is change. We are talking about how much we grow when we step outside of doing what we've always done, doing what is comfortable, and truly growing. That growth can be in your business, your personal life or both. Today on the podcast, Tony Wechsler and Amir Abdalla are going to discuss how, "Growth Happens Outside Our Comfort Zone."  Amir can be found on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/amirabdalla/As always, you are invited to join the Strive to ThriveFacebook group for a supportive community.... https://www.facebook.com/groups/strivetothrivepage   BTW...If you love this episode, please take a screenshot, share it on your Facebook story and tag me @TonyWechsler And remember to download the eBook, Strive to Thrive at https://tonywcoaching.com/

In this special year-end episode, Pastor Karl and the Flipside Church staff share their personal “Five Good Minutes” reflections on what God taught them throughout 2025. Tricia Cheshier speaks on trusting God and saying yes, overcoming fear to step into full-time children's ministry and watching her entire family grow bolder in faith. Michael Rondon reflects on a year of change, learning to be available and say yes upfront—discovering how one reluctant yes to coaching soccer became an answer to a former student's family's prayers. Alli Stemple shares about choosing joy amid uncertainty and witnessing God's providential will as closed doors led to unexpected open ones. Jeff Stemple unpacks the importance of understanding God's assignment, realizing that divine favor rests on the task God gives rather than on the person. Heather Botwright vulnerably recounts a difficult year of family health crises, yet celebrates God's faithful presence through His people and the strengthening of family bonds.Pastor Karl closes with his own lessons: returning to the bedrock of Scripture, leaning into God's sovereignty and providence, and remembering that Jesus builds His church. The common thread running through every story—saying yes to God, trusting His plan, choosing joy, and faithfully doing the job He assigns—leaves listeners challenged to reflect on 2025 and step boldly into 2026.A heartfelt, honest look at real faith lived out in real life.Watch all our sermons on our youtube channel "Flipside Christian Church"Join us in person 8:00am 9:30am & 11:00am every Sunday morning.37193 Ave 12 #3h, Madera, CA 93636For more visit us at flipside.churchFor more podcasts visit flipsidepodcasts.transistor.fm

In the latest episode of Digital Banking Podcast, host Josh DeTar, Vice President of Sales and Marketing at Tyfone, welcomed Emiliano Giacchetti, CEO at ParaScript LLC. The episode centered around the power of curiosity, challenging assumptions, and how breaking habits can unlock growth for individuals and organizations.Emiliano shared how he built a practice of seeking discomfort in order to learn and evolve.

He and Josh explored how collaboration between experts and outsiders can help teams see old problems in new ways, and why a willingness to make mistakes is key to finding better solutions.Throughout their conversation, Emiliano tied these themes back to banking and leadership. He encouraged listeners to examine long-held beliefs, welcome diverse viewpoints, and treat every challenge as an opportunity for learning. The episode offered practical ways to foster resilience, embrace change, and keep curiosity at the core of innovation.

This is a fan fav episode. You are living through exciting and strange times. There are so many technological advances with AI, space travel, NFTs, and a rapidly changing culture with social media, it's near impossible to just turn ‘off'. Let's admit it, FOMO is real and it keeps a lot of people connected when they're not even sure why they're connected. When was the last time you unplugged and took on a challenge you weren't sure you'd complete? How long has it been since you've sat with yourself in total silence or allowed yourself to just be bored out of your mind? Author and journalist, Michael Easter, joins me today to discuss his journey and share the lessons and insights he's gained from spending a month in the Arctic surviving. Hunting his own food, carrying heavy loads, and sitting with absolute boredom are just part of his story. As you listen to his story, it is my hope you will consider ways you step out of your comfort zone. There is something very freeing about being able to shake things up and break your routines and habits to improve the quality of your life in unconventional ways. This episode is about facing discomfort and finding new ways to challenge yourself for the better. Order Michael Easter's new book, The Comfort Crisis - ⁠https://amzn.to/3ihebjB⁠  Original air date: 8-5-2021 SHOW NOTES: 0:00 | Introduction to Michael Easter 1:05 | The Comfort Crisis Explained 3:02 | Journey to the Arctic 5:03 | Recovering from Alcohol 7:40 | Outside the Comfort Zone 8:55 | Helicopter Parenting Losing Challenges 12:16 | Touching Controversial Topics 14:53 | Challenges Surviving the Arctic 20:11 | Problem Creep 28:05 | Need for Rite of Passage 35:12 | Metaphorical Lions for Passage 41:19 | Comfort Creep & Habits 44:22 | Breaking Routine to be Present 47:45 | Discomfort and Boredom 50:00 | Benefits of Boredom 57:12 | Daily Routine 1:02:11 | Rucking & Human Design 1:14:05 | Killing His 1st Caribou 1:17:16 | Life Cycle & Mortality 1:27:16 | “This Too Shall Pass” 1:30:31 | Want to Live Forever? 1:39:12 | Assigning Meaning to Life 1:42:20 | Rites of Passage Transformation 1:46:12 | Problem Creep Comparison 1:50:34 | Finding Gratitude  Learn more about your ad choices.

Morning Mantra: “A comfort zone is a beautiful place, but nothing ever grows there.” Life isn't meant to be lived in a bubble.  You couldn't even if you wanted to because everything changes, challenges occur, and we are often faced with our limits. We grow when we stretch our wings. We are designed to evolve, to learn, to expand our consciousness. To live our best life as our best self.  That can only be done by leaving your comfort zone. Life can only change when you are more committed to your dreams than you are to your comfort.  Go out on a limb, then soar.#BeWillingToStretch #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #inspirationalQuotes #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBrand #HorseHippieBoutique

If stepping out of your comfort zone has ever felt more like panic than power… this episode is your permission slip to stop judging yourself and start celebrating yourself....On Day 5 of the 12 Days of Badassery, we're digging into the moments you stretched, cracked, reached, trembled, and DID IT ANYWAY. Even when it didn't look “bold.” Even when it didn't feel like success....Because that is the real badassery most women overlook. ...Inside the episode, we get into:✨ Why feeling scared doesn't cancel out being brave✨ How to stop measuring your worth by outcomes✨ The power of micro-stretches—your ‘toe over the edge' moments (thanks to Dr. Mike Bechtle's wisdom) ✨ Real-life examples of pushing past doubt—at work, at home, and in your growth...You'll also hear Marie share stories about applying for a chief position she didn't get, learning to ride a bike with bruised-up legs, and why staying in the “kiddie pool” of life keeps you from ever floating on your back in the deep end.....Every single one is a reminder: you don't have to feel fearless to be powerful. ...By the end, you'll see your own “I did it even though…” moments in a totally different light—because they count. They deserve to be written down. And you deserve to recognize the woman who took those risks, big or small.

409 Expanding Your Comfort Zone   In today's episode Sarah Elkins ruminates on how she has expanded her comfort zone by stepping into what she calls the "stretch zone", where you aren't entirely comfortable yet but willing to try just so that you can see what you're made of. If we never stretch our wings, we'll be trapped in the nest forever, so have faith in yourself, step into your stretch zone, and see how far it can take you.    Highlights Telling stories to connect with another, not to change their mind.  Taking time to calibrate yourself and find inner peace.  Turning your stretch zone into your comfort zone, one step at a time.    Quotes "The stories we share influence how we're perceived, and even when a listener isn't consciously aware they're picking up signals about who we are and whether we can be trusted." "To be comfortable with discomfort we have to embrace and define what our comfort zone looks like, and how it feels." About Sarah "Uncovering the right stories for the right audiences so executives, leaders, public speakers, and job seekers can clearly and actively demonstrate their character, values, and vision." In my work with coaching clients, I guide people to improve their communication using storytelling as the foundation of our work together. What I've realized over years of coaching and podcasting is that the majority of people don't realize the impact of the stories they share - on their internal messages, and on the people they're sharing them with. My work with leaders and people who aspire to be leaders follows a similar path to the interviews on my podcast, uncovering pivotal moments in their lives and learning how to share them to connect more authentically with others, to make their presentations and speaking more engaging, to reveal patterns that have kept them stuck or moved them forward, and to improve their relationships at work and at home. The audiobook, Your Stories Don't Define You, How You Tell Them Will is now available! Included with your purchase are two bonus tracks, songs recorded by Sarah's band, Spare Change, in her living room in Montana. Be sure to check out the Storytelling For Professionals Course as well to make sure you nail that next interview!

It's keeping you stuck in routines you've outgrown, patterns that no longer serve you, and a version of yourself that was never meant to be your final destination. In this episode, I'm breaking down the truth nobody wants to say out loud, the life you want, the purpose you feel, the calling that keeps tugging at you… none of it lives inside your comfort zone. It lives on the other side of risk, courage, honesty, and action. We're talking about why staying the same is silently destroying your dreams, how fear disguises itself as “familiar,” and what it actually takes to step into the life you were created to live. Not tomorrow. Not someday. Today. If you're tired of feeling stuck… if you're ready to stop settling… if you know there's more in you but you've been afraid to chase it, this is your moment. Press play and step out of the box that's been boxing you in. RehabTime… let's get it.

Most people think of "comfort" as a good thing. And in many situations, it is. Comfort can mean safety, familiarity, and the absence of immediate threats. But when it comes to growth, achievement, and personal transformation, comfort is often the silent saboteur. It's the invisible line that separates who you are from who you could become.

This week's Cool Conversations guest is Jenny Tough, a writer and professional adventure athlete based in Scotland. Jenny has completed numerous cycling and running multi-day adventures all over the world, almost always solo and self-supported. Jenny talks to Kenton about her constant desire to find what is around the next corner, and her belief that to grow as humans, we need to push outside our comfort zones. She spends a lot of her time in remote, mountainous environments and some of her past adventures include traversing Kyrgyzstan, Morocco and the Bolivian Andes. This is a typical 'cool conversation' in that it jumps around lots of different topics but, at its heart, it centres on pushing beyond our limits and finding what lies beyond.

How do we become more beautiful together? I speak with Julian Newman about just that. Julian is the author of Beautiful Together: How to Become a Better Leader & Bridge Builder. He's the founder, and CEO of Culture Creative and The FutureCast Foundation. He is an altMBA graduate and inaugural Anthem Award-winning Diversity & Inclusion Leader of the Year, along with Trevor Noah. His thought leadership has been featured in a range of media outlets including Forbes Magazine, Fox News, NPR and PBS affiliates. We discuss the importance of leadership, empathy, and vulnerability in building connections and fostering personal growth. We explore the transformative power of shared experiences, the necessity of stepping out of comfort zones, and the role of curiosity and competence in effective leadership. Julian shares personal anecdotes and insights on navigating emotions, the significance of real conversations, and the journey of self-discovery. Our discussion emphasizes the need for meaningful interactions and the courage to be vulnerable in order to create a more beautiful and connected world. Takeaways Listening is crucial for meaningful interactions. Stepping out of comfort zones leads to personal growth. Shared meals can create transformative experiences. Curiosity and competence are essential for leadership. Investing small efforts can lead to significant outcomes. Finding meaning in our actions is vital for fulfillment. Vulnerability fosters deeper connections with others. Real conversations are necessary for resolving conflicts. Empathy can bridge divides and foster understanding. Reuniting with our true selves is a journey worth taking.   Chapters 00:00 Introduction to Julian Newman and His Work 02:57 The Importance of Presence and Listening 06:03 Experiencing Culinary Adventures and Comfort Zones 08:59 The Role of Collaboration in Leadership 11:38 Transformative Experiences and Personal Growth 14:46 The Hero's Journey and Embracing the Unknown 17:44 Curiosity and Competence in Adventure 20:43 Investing in Small Steps Towards Goals 23:45 Finding Meaning and Purpose in Actions 26:36 Rekindling Wonder and Curiosity 29:46 Building Bridges Through Conversation 32:42 The Power of Connection and Understanding 38:04 The Importance of Face-to-Face Conversations 38:59 Digital Disconnection and Polarization 41:55 Empathy Through Understanding 44:43 Reunion with Our True Selves 50:34 Vulnerability as a Bridge 56:03 The Courage to Apologize 59:49 Finding the Essential in the Immediate

In celebration of the year ending, we are reviewing our top five most listened podcast episodes of 2025. And our fifth most popular episode of the year was Building a Business Outside Your Comfort Zone with Ashley Landers. What happens when a stay-at-home mom follows a wild idea? In this episode, we sit down with Ashley Landers—former teacher, mom of three, and now the owner of Oasis Face Bar Worthington Dublin. Ashley shares the unfiltered reality of starting over in a new city, shifting careers, and diving headfirst into business ownership without a roadmap. From painting walls while pregnant to building one of the most successful locations in a franchise—and then launching her own concept—Ashley's story is full of purpose, pivots, and permission to do it messy. Tune in to hear how she balances motherhood and business, follows her gut, and redefines what success looks like across seasons of life. Today we cover:How Ashley transitioned from teaching to owning beauty-based businessesThe importance of purpose and structure after leaving the 9-to-5How a front desk job changed her career path and opened new doorsThe origin story behind Dome and why she knew it would stickBalancing business, motherhood, and self—without hustle culture expectations Connect with Ashley:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/oasisfacebar_dublinworthington/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dome.scalpandheadspa/Website: https://www.domescalpandheadspa.com/ Connect with Whitney & Stephanie: captureyourconfidencepodcast@gmail.comStephanie IG: @_stephanie_hanna_The Other 85: https://theother85.net/Whitney IG: @whitneyabraham

On this episode Gil Bashe sits with Lynne Hughes, founder of Comfort Camp Zone. Lynne lost both of her parents by the time she was 12 years old. When she was 9, her mother died from a blood clot, and three years later, her father followed when he had a heart attack. Without any grieving resources for children to turn to for support, Ms. Hughes, who now lives in Richmond, Va., said that she coped with her loss largely alone. Following a series of jobs after graduating from Michigan State University with a communications degree, including hospice work, she looked to her own story as the impetus to start a bereavement camp for children, Comfort Zone Camp (CZC). Now in its 25th year, CZC is a free three-day camp for children and young adults 7 to 25.

What happens when decades of leadership, loss, grace, and growth collide into a life lived fully alive? In this episode, we sit down with our friend Wayne Williams—entrepreneur, rancher, long-time Trueface partner, and a man who has walked with Jesus through both mountaintops and valleys.We explore Wayne's journey from leading a global company through the dot-com boom and bust, to discovering a deeper identity shaped not by performance but by grace. We talk about how mentors changed the trajectory of his faith, why “protection teams” are essential for spiritual formation, and what it really looks like to build friendships rooted in vulnerability.Together, we unpack wisdom for every season—launching into adulthood, navigating marriage, raising kids, stewarding work, and learning to let go with trust. Wayne's honest reflections invite us to slow down, listen, and live with the kind of intentionality that forms us into who God says we are.If you're hungry for clarity, encouragement, and a practical vision for a grace-centered life, this conversation will feel like sitting with a trusted guide who's a few steps ahead of us on the trail.Want more?
