"Sorrow sneaks up when I least expect it. It's embedded in photographs, pieces of clothing, a familiar expression on a child's face. I don't feel angry with God. He never promised me a life free from suffering.

You've heard it before: “Don't comfort a scared dog, you'll just reinforce the fear.” But… is that true? In this episode of Enrichment for the Real World, Allie and Emily break down the science behind fear, behavior, and reinforcement and why that common advice just doesn't hold up.They'll explore how fear functions differently than you may think, why your emotional state also matters, and how to tell if your pet actually wants your comfort. Plus, you'll learn how to comfort your dog in a way that supports their wellbeing and builds resilience. Whether you're navigating thunderstorms, vet visits, or everyday stressors, this episode is packed with actionable advice for the pet parent who wants to help their pet. TLDL (too long, didn't listen): 1️⃣ Fear is not a behavior and can't be reinforced like oneFear is a physiological and emotional response, not a behavior that can be increased with rewards. However, behaviors associated with fear can be reinforced, which is where people often get confused.2️⃣ Your emotional state matters just as much as your pet's“Your stress travels down the leash” isn't just a cute saying. If you're anxious, your pet likely will be too. Comforting your dog starts with regulating your own nervous system first.3️⃣ Learn when and how to comfort your petSome pets want snuggles, others want space. Comforting isn't a one-size-fits-all approach. Learn how to listen to your learner and become the safe space they need when they are ready for it.For the full episode show notes, including additional resources, join us here.Join our upcoming free live webinar for force-free behavior professionals!3 Strategies to Uplevel Your Consulting Skills to Solve Behavior Challenges: Happier pets, enthusiastic clients, and a more rewarding career using the Pet Harmony Enrichment Framework covers our #1 tip to keep clients happy, working with you, and ultimately referring to you, and so much more.

Have you ever felt trapped in a cycle you just couldn’t break—where freedom feels promised but not lived out? In today’s devotional, Jennifer Slattery shares her deeply personal journey through disordered eating and emotional wounds. But more than that, she reveals the key to lasting freedom: learning to rely not on our own strength, but on Christ's Spirit within us. 2 Corinthians 3:17 reminds us, “Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.” This isn’t just a feel-good verse—it’s a declaration of the abundant life we’re meant to walk in every day.

Pastor Geoff Drew - 2 Corinthians 1:3-7

In this delightfully irreverent episode of aBlogtoWatch Weekly, Rick and the guys dive wrist-first into the absurd, the insightful, and the gloriously unnecessary corners of the watch world. Kicking things off, they give a standing ovation (well, a sarcastic slow clap) to Chrono24 for their marketing email announcing... drumroll... dark mode. Yes, folks, in 2025, turning your app background black is apparently still a press-worthy event. The team now proposes a weekly award for the most inane watch-related marketing announcement, so keep those PR disasters coming!The philosophical meat of the show? Whether you wear a watch for yourself or for other people. Cue the existential crisis. Ariel insists that slapping a watch on your wrist is a statement—whether it's “I'm refined and mysterious” or “Please ask me about my diver that's never been near water.” They discuss how social context, parenting, and introversion all factor into what you wear — meaning your G-Shock might be saying, “I'm just trying to survive the school run.”Next up: watch visibility. The gang fantasizes about creating a game show where they spot watches from 100 yards away like horological snipers. Panerai, of course, is the peacock of the watch zoo — recognizable from space. They geek out over high-frequency movements — because if you can't flex your obscure mechanical knowledge in a podcast, where can you? They lovingly mock the fact that quartz is better in every measurable way... but mechanical is cooler, because fantasy timelines where quartz never existed are more fun.Finally, they gently roast the Tudor Black Bay—perfectly reliable, always available, like that one friend who never moved out of your hometown. Boring? Maybe. Comforting? Absolutely. For the grand finale: You guessed it. Hit Miss, Maybe!Check Out This Week's Sponsor:Löbner - https://lbnr.com/

An episode that is not about inflexibility—it's about emotional safety, sensory regulation, and being authentically ourselves in a world that often feels chaotic!In Episode 147 of The Autistic Culture Podcast, Dr. Angela Kingdon explores Pillar 8 of Autistic Culture: Predictably Comforting, with special guest Daria Brown, author of We Chose Play: Raising an Autistic Child to Thrive and Feel Understood.Daria Brown has a Master's degree in Personality and Social Psychology. She has worked in the field of research, evaluation, and education for over 30 years at universities, not-for-profits, and government.Together, they discuss why predictability, routine, and familiarity are not only comforting but essential in autistic lives.This episode is especially meaningful for autistic listeners, families, and advocates who want to gain a deeper understanding of why consistency matters so deeply in autistic culture. Here's what defines this core Autistic trait:* Autistic Brains Crave PredictabilityOur nervous systems seek regulation over novelty. Familiar patterns reduce overwhelm and foster inner peace.* Routine as Emotional SafetyAutistic routines—like watching the same show, eating familiar foods, or repeating daily rituals—aren't rigid. They're tools for stability, helping manage emotional and sensory overload.* Cultural Examples of Comforting Predictability* Thomas the Tank Engine's structured stories* Dino Nuggets' consistent texture and taste* Andy Warhol's daily green underwear and soup-can art* Repetition as a Strength, Not a SymptomFrom stimming to re-watching favorite shows, repetition brings grounding comfort. It supports emotional regulation and fosters creativity.

Have you ever found yourself wondering, “Why am I all alone?” In this heartfelt and honest episode, I'm joined by author, Val Walker to explore one of the most tender—and often silent—struggles many women face: isolation and loneliness in adulthood. Val shares the powerful story that sparked her journey into researching loneliness. Val's story highlights the harsh realities of and complicated emotions surrounding isolation. She also discusses how even a friend's abandonment isn't always what it seems. Finally, Val's story highlights forgiveness, reconciliation, and her own passion for helping others realize this simple truth - you are not alone. In fact, any one of us can become isolated through various life circumstances. The good news, though, is that, with a bit of effort, we can also find our way back from isolation and loneliness. We can find our way back to connection and community.

A new MP3 sermon from Grace Audio Treasures is now available on SermonAudio with the following details: Title: There is no balm more comforting Subtitle: Puritan Devotional Speaker: C. H. Spurgeon Broadcaster: Grace Audio Treasures Event: Devotional Date: 6/10/2025 Bible: Isaiah 41:10; Romans 8:28 Length: 3 min.

Isaiah 41:10, "Do not be afraid, for I am with you. Do not be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will uphold you with My victorious right hand!" There is no balm more comforting to the trembling believer, than the direct and personal promises of God. In this verse, the Lord Himself speaks with fatherly tenderness and sovereign authority to calm the fears and strengthen the hearts of His redeemed people. Here is no vague encouragement, but the very voice of the Almighty pledging His own presence, power, and preservation. "Do not be afraid, for I am with you." Fear vanishes when the believer realizes who walks beside him. The God who made and governs all things--the One before whom nations are like dust on the scales--has pledged to be with His people. Not merely near them, but with them: protecting, guiding, and sustaining them. To fear, then, is to forget who God is and what He has promised. "Do not be discouraged, for I am your God." Discouragement creeps in when trials seem insurmountable and the soul feels faint. But when the believer remembers that God is his almighty Father, then discouragement is silenced. He has joined Himself to His people with everlasting love, and He will not forsake the work of His hands. "I will strengthen you and help you." Our weakness is not a hindrance to God's grace--it is the very reason He comes to us with divine strength. What we lack, He provides. What we cannot do, He accomplishes through us. He does not merely cheer us from afar, but enters the battle with us and protects us by His might. "I will uphold you with My victorious right hand!" The right hand of God is the place of power, author

If you ever feel the anxious child inside you, discover healthy ways to comfort your inner child with guest expert, Rivka Malka Perlman.  

In this message, Dr. Rhonda Hamilton highlights the importance of trusting God. Even when we are doing God's work diligently, life can present many stressors through work, family life or health struggles. The overwhelming stressors can feel like a militia coming towards us. In those times, we should remember that God is always with us. The Lord will equip us for everything He calls us to do. We should refrain from being afraid, thanking God for everything we know he has done before and let His peace wash over us.

Through her story, Erin shares what it looks like to carry grief in our bodies, the crisis of faith that can come with loss, and how she found her way through the darkness. From those tragedies was born Jessica's house, a place for families to walk through grief and be supported. And now a book When Grief Comes Home that shares the tools she has learned through so many trials.  Here are some topics we cover: The impact of trauma and grief on the body and nervous system The importance of modeling healthy grief and emotional expression for children How to come alongside grieving families in tangible, practical ways The unique challenges couples face when grieving a child and how to let someone grieve in their own way Brightsiding- what it is and how to speak to someone in a dark season  Connect with Erin and Colleen:  Website:  Jessica's House Facebook: Jessica's House Instagram:  Jessica's House (@jessicas_house) Links Mentioned:   NACG When Grief Comes Home: By Erin Leigh Nelson and Colleen Montague Related Episodes: When Moms Walk through Grief :: Stacey Thacker {Ep 76} The Ministry of Presence in a Broken World :: Tess Clarke [Ep. 252] Processing Grief, Infertility, and Loss in Community :: Julie Fowler [Ep 502] Featured Sponsors:  The Chosen Last Supper: You can preorder your tickets for the 3-part theatrical release at TheChosenLastSupper.com.
