Between 1911 and 1912, entire families across Louisiana and Texas were slaughtered in their sleep with an ax — their bodies sometimes arranged in prayer, their blood drained into buckets, and cryptic messages scrawled on the walls. A 17-year-old girl confessed to 35 of the murders, claimed she belonged to a secret voodoo cult called the Church of Sacrifice — and then vanished into history.IN THIS EPISODE: A series of ax murders took place in Louisiana and Texas. Gruesome as they were, they began to horrify the public even more when they were admitted to by a teenaged voodoo priestess. Despite her confession though, a pair of authors say that there was someone else in the area at the time even more dangerous and who likely did most of the killing unbeknownst to even the voodoo priestess. That man is know simply as “The Man From The Train”. Plus, we'll look a few more gruesome ax murders that took place in the 1800s.CHAPTERS & TIME STAMPS (All Times Approximate)…00:00:00.000 = Lead-In00:00:53.506 = Show Open00:02:28.706 = Voodoo Murders of Clementine Barabet00:17:52.092 = *** The Man From The Train00:33:05.318 = *** Ax Murders of the 1800s00:52:26.088 = Show CloseSOURCES AND REFERENCES FROM THE EPISODE…“The Voodoo Murders of Clementine Barnabet” (https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/2c5fcw) and “The Man From The Train” (https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/3fc77w4h) by Benjamin Welton for ListVerse“Axe Murders of the 1800s” by Elizabeth Yetter (https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/vjfc6dp6), and Josh Gotter (https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/367wz7rd) for ListVerseBOOK: “The Man From The Train: Discovering America's Most Elusive Serial Killer” by Bill James and Rachel McCarthy James: https://amzn.to/3fiuHhMWeird Darkness theme by Alibi Music Library. = = = = =(Over time links seen above may become invalid, disappear, or have different content.

1. New Year’s Resolutions The first part of the discussion is lighthearted and personal. Both hosts share their resolutions for 2026: Ted Cruz’s resolutions: Lose 30 pounds (from 236 lbs to 206 lbs) through diet and exercise. Complete a “Dry January” (no alcohol for the month). Read the Bible daily throughout the year. Ben Ferguson’s resolutions: Focus on building muscle after significant weight loss (from 298 lbs to 209 lbs). Commit to reading the Bible daily alongside Cruz. They also reflect on family life, parenting, and the emotional challenges of children growing up and leaving home. 2. Minnesota Shooting, Riots & Fraud The second part shifts to a serious political discussion: Incident in Minnesota: A woman allegedly tried to run over an ICE agent with her SUV and was fatally shot. The hosts argue that the Left is politicizing the event, portraying the woman as a victim, and using the situation to attack law enforcement. Rhetoric and Violence: They criticize Democratic leaders for inflammatory language, claiming it encourages violence against ICE and law enforcement. Examples include: Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey telling ICE to “get out” of the city. Governor Tim Walz suggesting Minnesota is “at war” with the federal government. Fraud Scandal: They discuss a massive Somali-related fraud in Minnesota, allegedly involving $9 billion in taxpayer funds across multiple sectors (childcare, transportation, etc.). The conversation frames this as deliberate Democratic corruption tied to immigration policies and vote-buying. Law Enforcement Advice: Practical tips for interacting safely with police during traffic stops are shared, emphasizing respect and de-escalation. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Infidelity can feel like one of the most devastating experiences a person can go through, and in this encore episode, I talk about why it cuts so deeply — and how healing is truly possible. I explore how betrayal impacts us not only emotionally, but at a primal level, threatening our sense of safety, belonging, and self-worth. I also share parts of my own story and explain how infidelity can reopen old, unhealed wounds that have nothing to do with our partner's choices. One of the most powerful frameworks I discuss is the Buddhist concept of the two arrows. The first arrow is the betrayal itself. The second arrow is the meaning we attach to it—the self-blame, shame, and stories that often create even more pain. While we cannot control the first arrow, we always have a choice about the second. Whether you are considering staying or leaving, this episode will help you understand how to reduce the impact of infidelity, reclaim your power, and stop hurting yourself with stories that are not true. Healing does not require perfection. It requires compassion, honesty, and courage. In this episode, I cover: Infidelity hurts deeply because of both biology and meaning The second arrow of self-blame is optional Your partner's choices are not a reflection of your worth Healing is possible, whether you stay or leave If you're ready to move forward with strength instead of shame, I invite you to reach out and take the next step in your healing journey.

Hey friends — it's Amy.Today's episode is a powerful conversation about igniting something inside of you — your confidence, your expectation, and your willingness to grow.Because if we're honest, most people don't lack potential…They lack expectation.They lack confidence.And they've gotten a little too comfortable staying where they are.In this episode, I'm talking about why confidence isn't something you wait to feel — it's something you activate. Expectation works the same way. What you anticipate, you experience. And growth? Growth always asks you to step outside of what feels safe before it ever feels rewarding.We dive into the tug-of-war every human feels between certainty and growth. We want stability — but we also crave movement. And when we choose comfort for too long, life starts to feel tight… like a coat that no longer fits, yet we keep putting it on anyway.If you've felt restless, stretched, or aware that something needs to change — that's not failure. That's awareness. And awareness is the beginning of transformation.This episode will challenge you to: • Raise your internal standard • Stop repeating habits that no longer serve you • Expect more — and act like it • Commit to growth, even when it feels uncomfortable2026 doesn't need more hype.It needs intentional decisions.My hope is that today's episode helps you stop negotiating with fear and start moving forward with clarity, courage, and conviction.You're not behind.You're not stuck.You're just being invited to grow.Connect With Us:Website: https://www.youaremore.comFree Download: 5 Steps to Win Through AdversitySocial Media: Follow us on Facebook and InstagramEmail: amy@amywienands.comEpisode Minute By Minute:00:00 – Igniting confidence, expectation, and growth for a new year02:20 – Why most people want change but don't experience it05:15 – Confidence is activated, not discovered08:10 – Expectation: the invisible force shaping your life11:30 – Certainty vs. growth: why comfort can quietly cost you15:00 – When life starts to feel tight, not peaceful18:25 – Why discomfort often signals growth21:40 – Releasing habits that no longer fit who you're becoming25:10 – Raising your internal standard28:30 – Making a commitment to grow in 202631:00 – Final encouragement and mindset shiftBe intentional, stay focused, and remember you are more!
“Afterward he appeared in a different form to two of his followers who were walking from Jerusalem into the country. They rushed back to tell the others, but no one believed them.” (Mark 16:12–13 NLT) One of the great mysteries of the Bible is why Jesus chose to appear to certain people and not others after His resurrection. There is no record of His appearing to the Jewish religious leaders who opposed Him during His earthly ministry. Or to the high priest Caiaphas, who orchestrated His crucifixion. Or to the Roman Emperor Caesar. Imagine the drama if He had appeared to Pilate: “Yo, Pilate! Remember me? Can’t keep a good man down, can you?” Instead, we find post-resurrection accounts like the one in Mark 16. Jesus appeared to two disciples on the road to Emmaus and joined them on their journey to the country. We don’t know who the disciples were, and they are not mentioned again in the Bible. Verse 12 tells us that Jesus “appeared in a different form” (NLT) to the pair. In other words, He went incognito. The two travelers had no idea that they were walking with Jesus. Later, when they told others about their encounter, “no one believed them” (verse 13 NLT). Maybe it’s because their story lacked drama and spectacle. The idea of the Lord walking incognito lacks punch. But it’s revealing as to how the Lord works. It’s a reminder to believers that Jesus walks with us always, even when we’re not aware of Him. In Isaiah 43:2, the Lord promises, “When you go through deep waters, I will be with you. When you go through rivers of difficulty, you will not drown. When you walk through the fire of oppression, you will not be burned up; the flames will not consume you” (NLT). Sometimes God’s people don’t realize He’s there until the rivers, flames, and other obstacles are in our rearview mirror. In 1 Kings 19:11–13, the prophet Elijah experienced God’s presence not in a windstorm, not in an earthquake, not in a fire, but in “the sound of a gentle whisper” (verse 12 NLT). Just as people must pay close attention to hear a gentle whisper, they must also pay close attention to experience God’s presence. Feeling close to the Lord isn’t something that happens only in church. Wherever you go, you can know that Jesus is with you there, too. When you’re going through hard times, even when you cannot feel Him, Jesus is there. That’s great news for believers—news that should be celebrated. One of the best ways to respond to the Lord’s quiet presence in your life is with a spirit of gratitude. Thank God that you never have to wonder where He is when things get tough. Another great way to respond is with silence of your own. Commit to a regular quiet time—a time when you intentionally block out the noise and distractions of the day so that you can be aware of God’s presence.

Growth doesn't always come from doing more of what you're already good at. Sometimes it comes from being willing to be new again. Show Notes In this episode of Shark Theory, Baylor challenges the way most people approach goals and asks a simple but powerful question. What are you doing in 2026 that is actually new? We spend so much time trying to optimize, refine, and improve the things we already do that we forget the energy that comes from starting something completely different. For Baylor, that new thing is learning piano, a goal he has talked about for years but finally decided to act on. He walks through what it feels like to be a beginner again. Learning chords, scales, sheet music, and coordinating both hands at once. It is uncomfortable. It is overwhelming. And at the same time, it is energizing and joyful. Baylor explains why being new at something gives you permission to struggle without judgment. Unlike your career or responsibilities where performance matters, new pursuits allow you to be bad with intention. That intentional struggle creates rapid growth, momentum, and confidence that spills into other areas of life. He also emphasizes the importance of benchmarks. Not rigid goals, but clear markers that help you measure progress. Without benchmarks, people feel stuck even when they are improving. With them, growth becomes visible and motivating. The episode closes with a reminder that foundations matter. Whether you are learning piano or revisiting an area of your life you already know well, real growth comes from focusing on fundamentals. Mastery is built, not rushed. This is a call to stop postponing the things you have always wanted to try. Pick something new. Give yourself permission to be bad at it. Commit to the basics. And let that growth re-energize your life. What You'll Learn in This Episode • Why trying something new creates momentum across your life • The importance of giving yourself permission to be a beginner • How benchmarks prevent discouragement and burnout • Why fundamentals matter more than talent • How being bad at something can accelerate growth • The difference between improvement and transformation Featured Quote "Sometimes the fastest way to grow isn't getting better at what you do. It's being willing to start over at something new." Pick one new thing for 2026. Embrace the awkwardness. Build the foundation. The growth will follow.

Think you care too much about other people's feelings? Think again. In this bold kickoff to 2026, Dr. Aziz pulls back the curtain on the real reason “nice people” overextend themselves, struggle to say no, and feel constantly responsible for everyone's emotions. Spoiler alert: it's not because they care too much—it's because they're trying to stay safe. Deep down, many people-pleasing behaviors are driven by fear, guilt, and the unconscious belief that your worth hinges on making others happy. In this eye-opening episode, you'll learn: Why over-functioning and “caring” often mask codependency The hidden emotional cost of being overly responsible How niceness traps you in an outdated identity that's not really you The essential difference between real care and fear-based appeasement Why it's time to update your inner operating system—not just tweak your habits If you've ever said yes when you wanted to say no, answered texts out of anxiety, or felt guilty for simply protecting your time and energy, this episode will speak to your soul. And it will challenge you to finally liberate yourself from the nice person identity and step into the bold, authentic leader you were meant to be. Dr. Aziz also shares a powerful invitation to make 2026 the year you fully upgrade your life—starting with your confidence. Tune in, commit, and get ready to reclaim your freedom. -------------------------------------------- Why “caring” can be fear in disguise—and how to break free from the Nice Cage Most people start the new year thinking about goals: relationships, health, career, money, confidence. But underneath all of that, there's a deeper goal. Liberation. Liberation from the old identity. Liberation from the old operating system. Liberation from social anxiety, people-pleasing, self-doubt… and the nice cage that keeps you small. And today I want to challenge one of the biggest beliefs that keeps “nice” people trapped: Nice people don't actually care too much. That might sound surprising—because nice people often feel like they care more than everyone else. They feel guilty if someone's upset. They say yes when they want to say no. They carry other people's emotions like they're responsible for them. And they tell themselves: “I care about them, so I can't disappoint them.” “If I say no, it means I don't care.” “If they're struggling, who am I to refuse?” “A good person should help.” But here's what I want you to see: When it feels like you care too much… it often isn't caring at all. It's something else masquerading as care. The Nice Cage: When “being good” becomes self-erasure Niceness can feel like virtue. It can feel like love. It can feel like generosity. It can feel like being a “good person.” But a lot of the time, niceness is actually a strategy—an unconscious survival strategy—to stay safe. Because underneath niceness is a fear that sounds like: “If I upset people, I'll be rejected.” “If I disappoint them, I'll be abandoned.” “If they're angry with me, I'm not safe.” “If I don't keep them happy… I'm bad.” So niceness becomes a cage: you keep trying to be acceptable, agreeable, harmless. And the cost? You don't live your life. You live a managed version of yourself. The big misunderstanding: “Caring” vs. fear Nice people don't actually care too much. They often have something else running the show: 1) Codependence Codependence is basically: “I'm okay if you're okay. And if you're not okay… I'm not okay.” So if someone is happy, you relax. If someone is disappointed, irritated, stressed, or hurt—you go into emergency mode. Your hair is on fire. “What do you need?” “How do I fix this?” “How do I make it right?” And it feels like caring. But really, it's fear. 2) Over-responsibility This is the core belief behind niceness: “I am responsible for your emotional state.” Not that you're responsible to feed someone like a baby— but you feel responsible for whether they're upset. So you avoid saying no. You avoid being direct. You avoid expressing your truth. You override your own needs. Because if they're upset… you feel like you've done something wrong. The “or else” feeling: the clearest sign it's fear Here's one of the easiest ways to tell whether something is care or fear: If it has an “or else” feeling—it's fear. “I have to respond right now… or else.” “I have to say yes… or else.” “I have to make them happy… or else.” “I can't disappoint them… or else.” That “or else” is not love. That “or else” is survival mode. And it's usually not about the current situation—it's an old pattern repeating itself. Why niceness drains your vitality Here's the truth that many nice people don't want to look at: You will not be fully alive in the nice operating system. At best, you can build a life that looks okay on the outside… but it doesn't feel like your life—because you're not being you. And eventually, the nice pattern catches up. burnout resentment being taken for granted relationships that feel one-sided physical symptoms, stress, tension, pain a shrinking life No matter how much you give, the answer becomes: “Give more.” More helping. More fixing. More proving. More caretaking. And that's not a path to freedom. The shift that changes everything The way out is not “try harder.” You can't over-function your way out of this. The way out is a deeper realization: What you've been calling “care” is often fear. And when you see that, something opens up: Saying no becomes healthy—not cruel Boundaries become respectful—not selfish Truth becomes connection—not danger You stop trying to manage people's emotions You start living your life again Because this is the mature truth: Other people are responsible for their emotions. And you are responsible for yours. Real emergencies vs. emotional discomfort Sometimes people say, “But isn't it important to show up for others?” Yes. There are real crises in life. There are emergencies. There are moments when love calls you to step up. But here's the problem: Nice people treat everyday discomfort like an emergency. Someone is frustrated. Someone is impatient. Someone wanted something faster. Someone admits disappointment. And your nervous system reacts like: “Danger. Fix it now.” That's the pattern. And breaking the pattern means you stop treating emotional discomfort as an alarm bell you must obey. Your action step: upgrade your operating system If you want to get free, you'll need more than a small tweak. This isn't “be a little more assertive.” This is: Commit to a deeper level of change. A full operating system upgrade. A decision that says: “This year, I'm no longer living inside the nice cage.” “I'm no longer responsible for managing other people's emotions.” “I will be honest, direct, kind, and real.” “I will live as me.” Because liberation doesn't happen from a wish. It happens from commitment. Why environment matters (and how transformation accelerates) Personal responsibility matters. But you don't have to do it alone. One of the fastest ways to change is: Commitment + the right environment. That's why I've spent decades investing in mentors, coaching, groups, and training environments. Because the right environment speeds up what would otherwise take years. And if you want to do deep work on people-pleasing, niceness, social anxiety, and living with real confidence… If you've been listening to this show for a while and you feel drawn to do this work deeply, you might be a fit for my Unstoppable Confidence Mastermind. It's a 12-month program designed to help you: break free from social anxiety and people-pleasing build bold, authentic confidence speak up, set boundaries, and stop over-functioning create real change that sticks It's immersive support over a full year: live calls with me, step-by-step guidance, progress tracking, quarterly check-ins, and a curated community. If you want to explore it, you can apply using the link above. You don't need to become harsh. You don't need to become selfish. You don't need to stop caring. You just need to stop confusing fear with care. And when you do, you get something back that you might not have felt in a long time: Freedom. The freedom to be fully you. Until we speak again—have the courage to be who you are, and to know on a deep level that you're awesome. Quick Recap Nice people don't care too much. They often fear too much. Watch for these signals: “or else” urgency automatic yes guilt when someone's disappointed over-responsibility for emotions The shift: Other people manage their emotions. You manage yours.

Richard Allen confessed to molesting his sister. She says it never happened. He confessed to molesting his daughter. She denies it too. He said he shot Abby Williams and Libby German. They weren't shot—they were stabbed.And those are the confessions Indiana used to convict him of murder.According to the 113-page Appellant's Brief now before the Indiana Court of Appeals, Richard Allen's confessions came after five months in maximum-security solitary confinement—a placement that violated Indiana's own 30-day policy for mentally ill inmates. By the time he started confessing, state doctors had declared him "gravely disabled." He'd dropped from 180 to 135 pounds. He was eating his own feces, drinking toilet water, and couldn't remember confessing days after he did it.Before solitary, Allen never broke. Two interrogations. Hours of pressure. Detectives lying about evidence. His own wife brought in as leverage. His response stayed consistent: "I did not murder two little girls. I don't care how stressed out I get, I am not going to admit to something I had nothing to do with."Five months later, he was asking guards if he was already dead.The prosecution called these confessions "logical and organized." They presented them as the unburdening of a guilty soul. But the jury never heard the audio—Judge Gull ordered it muted. They never heard Allen screaming incoherently, rambling about World War III, saying "Rocky Balboa is my favorite actor."They got silence. They got the state's narrative. And Richard Allen got 130 years.Today we break down what these confessions actually looked like—and why the details Allen got wrong may matter more than anything he got right.#RichardAllenTrial #DelphiMurders #TrueCrimeNews #FalseConfessions #AbbyAndLibby #WrongfulConviction #DelphiUpdate #CriminalJustice #LibbyGerman #AbbyWilliamsJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISDOES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

In this episode of Commit, Jason Ingber sits down with AY Milstein for what starts as a straightforward interview and immediately becomes anything but. Jason asks one simple question, "What do you do for a living?" AY answers and never breaks character. What follows is a long form improv spiral involving solar sales, corn powered energy, questionable FDA approvals, Christopher Nolan's Interstellar, religious identity, trauma, ambition, and the moment an interview quietly turns into a commitment to the bit. This episode blends absurd comedy with unexpectedly honest moments, as AY commits fully and Jason slowly realizes there is no way out but forward. If you enjoy improv, long form chaos, and conversations that refuse to stay on track, this episode delivers.

So Much More: Creating Space for God (Lectio Divina and Scripture Meditation)
This guided Scripture meditation is in Psalm 37 using Lectio Divina. Waiting on God is hard. This Psalm reminds us that God will act on our behalf – in his timing and in his ways. It also reminds us to not get caught up in comparison. It will only agitate us, and nothing good comes from this. So, take a deep breath and allow the Lord to guide you into this meditation in Psalm 37. I believe he has something just for you. Here’s some links I discussed in the podcast: The guided retreat to help you move into this new year with intention is here. You can find Jodie at http://www.jodieniznik.com/ Instagram @jodieniznik Facebook @JodieGNiznik Learn more about Lectio Divina and download your free Lectio Divina Journal here. And if you’re ready to make Scripture Meditation a part of your new year, I encourage you to join my Monday email newsletter here. I’ll send out link to the newest meditation every Monday morning. Download free sample chapters from my Bible studies here. Listen to another meditation on Psalm 37 from the Summer Series 2023 here The passages we meditated on is as follows: Psalm 37:5-9, CSB 5 Commit your way to the Lord; trust in him, and he will act, 6 making your righteousness shine like the dawn, your justice like the noonday. 7 Be silent before the Lord and wait expectantly for him; do not be agitated by one who prospers in his way, by the person who carries out evil plans. 8 Refrain from anger and give up your rage; do not be agitated—it can only bring harm. 9 For evildoers will be destroyed, but those who put their hope in the Lord will inherit the land.

Setting goals for the new year often focuses on achievement, productivity, and personal growth—but Proverbs 16:3 reminds us that lasting transformation begins with surrendering our hearts to God. When we commit our plans, desires, and direction to the Lord, He shapes not only what we do but who we are becoming, aligning our goals with His purposes and power. Highlights God is more concerned with who you are becoming than what you accomplish. Committing your plans to God starts with aligning your heart with His. Many goals fail when they rely on personal strength instead of God’s power. The Holy Spirit works from the inside out, transforming character as goals are pursued. Spiritual growth flows from becoming, not just doing. Jesus shaped His disciples through relationship before responsibility. God establishes plans by shaping them to fit His good purposes, even when they change. Do you want to listen ad-free?

Full Transcript Below: Set Your Heart, Not Just Your GoalsBy: Whitney Hopler Bible Reading:“Commit to the LORD whatever you do, and he will establish your plans.” – Proverbs 16:3, NIV When a new year starts, it’s natural to think about goals. You may want to set some New Year’s resolutions to start some new habits, or at least make plans for the year ahead. While it’s good to want to set and achieve new goals, it’s important to focus on more than just accomplishing a list of tasks. God wants you to focus less on doing and more on becoming. God cares far more about who you are than what you check off a list. Proverbs 16:3 highlights a simple yet significant truth: If you commit what you do to God, he will establish your plans. The key is first committing your plans to God. You can only do that if your heart is lined up with God’s heart. When you “commit to the LORD whatever you do,” you’re not just handing God your goals; you’re handing God your whole self. That choice opens the door for God to transform you and lead you into plans that are really the best plans for you. Maybe that’s why so many New Year’s resolutions fall apart a few weeks into the year. It’s hard to make much progress on goals if you’re relying only on your own limited power to achieve them. But if you’re relying on God’s unlimited power to help you achieve goals God wants for you, you’ll experience the Holy Spirit empowering you to accomplish those goals in any kind of circumstances. The Spirit’s power works from the inside out, so in the process of working toward your goals, you’ll be transformed as a person. This year, instead of asking yourself what you want to accomplish, ask God who he wants you to become. Think of your goals less as what to do and more as how to be. How does God want to strengthen your character during this new year? Do you sense God calling you to be more courageous, patient, joyful, kind, generous, or trusting? When you focus on becoming, the doing naturally follows. Habits flow from the heart. So, your goals will flow from the kind of person you are becoming, with God’s help. Jesus didn’t start by giving his disciples tasks; he started by inviting them to follow him. Walking closely with Jesus changed who they were long before it shaped what they did. Their lives were transformed from the inside out. God wants to do the same with you! So, this new year, bring your goals to God, but bring your heart first. Ask God how he wants you to learn and grow this year so you can become the person he wants you to become. Then listen. Be open and willing to take slow, steady steps closer to God throughout this year and beyond. When Proverbs 16:3 says God “will establish your plans,” it means God will shape them so they match his good purposes for your life. It doesn’t mean everything will go exactly how you imagined. Some plans will unfold beautifully. Some will change unexpectedly. Some will be put on hold. Some will lead you into places you never thought you’d go. But when you set your heart in the right place with God, you’ll fulfill all the important purposes for your life. This year, don’t pressure yourself to achieve everything you want all at once. Instead, set your heart before God and let him shape you. Focus not on trying harder, but on trusting God more. The more you build a closer relationship with God, the more your own goals will line up with God’s goals for you. Give God your year, and look forward to how he blesses your heart! Intersecting Faith & Life: As you consider how it’s important to set your heart on God to set the best goals, reflect on these questions: What goals have you made in the past that focused more on doing rather than becoming? What qualities do you sense God wants to grow in you this year? Are there any plans or expectations you need to surrender to God today? What would it look like for you to “commit to the LORD whatever you do” day by day? How does knowing that God establishes your plans give you peace or confidence?

Commit your way to the LORD; trust in him, and he will . . . make your righteous reward shine like the dawn. . . . — Psalm 37:5-6 There's something sacred about starting a journey—even more so when we commit it to the Lord. I remember a season when I launched into a new role that felt bigger than me. I had my doubts, my fears, and even a few naysayers in my ear. But I also had a quiet confidence—not in myself but in the One who had called me to it. Committing your way to the Lord isn't just a one-time declaration; it's a daily surrender. It involves waking up and saying, “God, I trust you more than my own understanding.” The beautiful thing is that when we commit to trust in the Lord, he doesn't just point us in the right direction—he walks with us. Psalm 37 reminds us that trust and commitment go hand in hand. It's not about having all the answers or never feeling uncertain. It's about choosing to put your plans, goals, and hopes into the hands of the faithful God who knows what's best. The road might be long, but we don't walk it alone. And every step we take with God is a step toward becoming who he made us to be. Lord, I commit my path to you. Help me to trust you in every twist and turn, knowing that you are guiding me for my good and for your glory. Amen.
Sermon Text: 2 Chronicles 34:29-33 Description: Today, we commit yourselves to Christ and together renew our covenant to follow his way and live according to his ways.
In this encore episode, I'm teaching you one of the most powerful tools I use in my coaching: the thought model. This framework helps you see, with clarity and compassion, how your thoughts create your feelings, actions, and ultimately the results you're living with right now. This isn't about positive thinking or forcing yourself to feel better. It's about awareness — learning how your brain works so you can decide, on purpose, whether the thoughts you're believing are helping you or holding you back. I walk you through real-life examples to show how the same circumstance can lead to very different outcomes depending on the thoughts driving it. When you understand this, you stop living at the effect of other people or situations and start reclaiming your power. You learn how to interrupt old thought patterns, create intentional results, and build a life that feels expansive instead of constricting. In this episode, I cover: Why circumstances don't create results — thoughts do How to identify the thoughts running your life What a daily thought download is and how to use it How to create intentional results instead of repeating old patterns If you're ready to feel more grounded, confident, and in control of your healing, I invite you to reach out and work with me. You don't have to do this alone.

And if I'm being completely honest? While there was growth… while there was movement… I didn't accomplish what I knew I was capable of.And I had to get real with myself.This episode is about what it's actually going to take to possess — not wish for — your dreams in 2026.I talk about why hoping isn't enough anymore. Why vision without action leads to frustration. And why this year is going to require radical commitment, not comfort.We talk about:Why you must see the vision, not casually think about itWhy clarity creates movement — and confusion keeps you stuckWhy continuing the same thoughts and habits guarantees the same lifeHow comfort, certainty, and growth are constantly in tensionWhy your kids don't just need your words — they need your exampleHow stacking small wins creates momentum that changes everythingI also share personal stories — from watching my dad work third shift while building a business, to realizing how fast time moves when my kids just turned 11.This is not about hustling harder.This is about deciding — once and for all — that you are done pushing your dreams down the road.2026 doesn't need to be louder.It needs to be intentional.If you've felt emotionally thin… worn out… or like the last season took more than it gave — you are not alone. But this year can be different.And it starts with a decision.
Send us a textI loved recording a no-fluff episode of The Return With @Richard Donnell at Zoopla(Source of the best insights in the industry.)The headline?→ Stop investing like it's 2021.→ Start investing like it's 2026.We covered what 2025 changes mean for 2026 investors.Then discussed 2026 ‘must-dos', including:Re-underwrite your portfolio.Assume “normal” rent growth (2-3%).Stress test higher compliance and running costs.Face the London maths.If you want income, be honest.London can work - but mainly as value-add, or very long term.Go where the spread works.Follow yield, not headlines.(We discussed regional cities like Glasgow, Derby.)Decide your stance early.Buy / Build / Upgrade / Sell.Commit to scaling or shrinking.Act like an operator.Sell liability-heavy stock early.Buy only where pricing reflects the cost of capital.This episode is in association with (and thanks to) Lloyds.In association with:https://www.lloydsbank.com/business/industry-expertise/real-estate.html?utm_source=The+Return&utm_medium=podcast+partnership&utm_campaign=sponsored+episodeGuest LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/richard-donnell/Host LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/annaclareharper/
