Are you living your own story or the one you were programmed to follow? Rebecca sits down with the incredible Dr Gertrude Lyons for a robust and eye-opening conversation about rewriting the cultural coding that tells women to overextend, self-sacrifice, and disappear inside motherhood. Dr Lyons brings thirty years of transformational leadership work to this essential message. We are all mothering every day through the way we treat ourselves, our relationships, and our world. In this conversation, she guides us to awaken intuition, honor our emotions, reclaim our identity, and step into our own voice using her beautiful VOICE framework. This is a nurturing and inspiring episode for every woman who has ever lost herself while caring for everyone else. Six Key Takeaways → Rewrite the mother code by understanding that mothering is not limited to raising children. We are mothering careers, relationships, ideas, and our own inner child. → Our cultural programming wires women to prioritize everyone else first. Awareness and compassion begin the reprogramming process. → Intuition is a powerful internal compass. Slowing down and reconnecting with emotions brings it back online. → Vision and ownership anchor Dr Lyons' VOICE framework. Claiming our voice helps us navigate choices without guilt or comparison. → Community is a key part of healthy mothering. Women thrive when they support one another and release isolation. → A small daily practice can start the rewiring. Notice your feelings twice a day and acknowledge them with compassion.

We're discussing the feedback from Sooz Review of Jaws, and why people are real worked up about it. We learn about a woman who changed her gender on LinkedIn only to get a 400% increase in page views, so obviously we're mad about it. Sarah explains why drones are being used in warfare and it feels more dangerous than you'd think. Susie describes a study that had a man dressed as Batman entering a subway car, and the surprising effect it had on passengers, but the real surprise was the conclusions it gave scholars. We learn about a man who is wearing ridiculous pants to win a jeans contest for absolutely no reason, and Sarah cannot quit laughing at him. Plus, we hear about a trial where a mistress was fined almost $2M for breaking up a marriage, while the man was not held accountable in any way.Brain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:Get $35 off Aura's best-selling Carver Mat frames - named #1 by Wirecutter - by going to https://auraframes.com and using promo code BRAINCANDY at checkout.For 20% off your order, head to https://reliefband.com and use code BRAINCANDYSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

John 13:14-33,

  SUMMARY In this conversation, the hosts discuss the troubling incident involving a student named "Maria", who faced disciplinary action after defending herself against an aggressor at school. They explore the implications of zero tolerance policies in educational institutions, the importance of community awareness, and the need for a more nuanced approach to self-defense in schools. The discussion emphasizes the necessity of empowering students to protect themselves and the role of parents and communities in advocating for change.   In this conversation, the speakers discuss the implications of zero tolerance policies in schools, particularly regarding bullying and violence. They explore the complexities of defining violence, the consequences of these policies on victims, and the role of schools in addressing bullying. The discussion emphasizes the need for community engagement and transparency in school policies to ensure the safety and well-being of students.     TAKEAWAYS "Maria" did everything right in trying to deescalate the situation. Zero tolerance policies often fail to consider context. Self-defense should not be punished in schools. School administrators need to be held accountable. Students should be empowered to defend themselves. The presence of video evidence can change narratives. Parents must advocate for their children's safety. Indoctrination against self-defense can have dire consequences. Open discussions about violence and safety are necessary. Schools may inadvertently breed victimhood through their policies. Community engagement is crucial in addressing school safety issues. Parents should demand transparency regarding school policies. The consequences of bullying are often not adequately addressed by schools. Self-defense should not be punished in the context of zero tolerance policies. Schools often prioritize their image over student safety. Educating communities about school policies can lead to positive change. Real consequences for bullying and violence are necessary to change school culture.

They discuss the nativity story, emphasizing themes of hospitality, community, and the deeper meanings behind familiar narratives. The conversation highlights the importance of welcoming God into our lives and the transformative power of the incarnation. Through reflections on the shepherds and the poetic nature of John's Gospel, the hosts invite listeners to engage with the Christmas story in a meaningful way. Takeaways This year Christmas falls on a Wednesday, which is exciting for many. The podcast will focus on the Gospel of Luke and John for Christmas Eve. Rob is hosting a preaching retreat in January for those interested in planning their sermons. The story of Jesus' birth is often simplified, but it holds deeper meanings. The concept of 'no room at the inn' can be reframed to highlight hospitality. Shepherds symbolize the vulnerable and caring nature of leadership in the story. The Gospel of John presents a poetic view of the incarnation. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness cannot extinguish it. The story of Jesus' birth invites us to reflect on our own hospitality. The community aspect of faith is emphasized in the discussion.

Sick days down, blood pressure down, low back injuries down—when the metrics move, pricing power follows.Cody breaks down the shift from coach to operator: how referrals compounded into a book of business, why he attends seminars to sharpen skills, and what changed when he started hiring in his own name. We get specific about standards. Resumes stacked with acronyms are easy; applying anatomy, progressing programs, and defending your choices under pressure is what counts. You'll hear how a practical interview works with a real client, what professionalism looks like on the phone and on the floor, and why protecting the brand requires a high bar for every coach who touches a client.We also map the scalable play: launch a corporate wellness pilot with a tight intake—vitals, grip strength, movement, injury history, and strength benchmarks—then deliver a year of consistent coaching and report the outcomes in dollars saved. That proof of concept unlocks enterprise contracts and fuels a one-stop model that brings trainers, physical therapists, registered dietitians, and concierge MDs under one roof. Community grows, care improves, and the business becomes repeatable across locations.If you're serious about leveling up, this conversation is your checklist: set standards, document outcomes, build a team, and package your wins so decision makers can say yes.

Congressman John James is the living embodiment of the American Dream. But as a conservative, he gets more pushback from people who "look like him" than from anyone else. His resume is beyond impressive, he's a proven leader, and he is vying for the Governor's mansion in Michigan. What's not to like?

In this episode, I sit down with my husband, Jared Battles, to share the story behind our newest chapter together: opening Battles Jiu Jitsu. We reflect on how this idea moved from a quiet "what if" conversation to becoming a real, brick-and-mortar space rooted in purpose, faith, and community.   We talk about why jiu jitsu has played such a meaningful role in our lives, how our backgrounds in athletics, coaching, and service shaped the culture we want to create, and why building a family-centered training environment matters so much to us. From welcoming beginners to supporting women, kids, first responders, and hobbyists alike, our goal is to create a gym where people feel safe, supported, and genuinely cared for—on and off the mats.   This conversation is about more than opening a gym. It's about practicing brave, trusting the redirects in life, and building something meaningful alongside the people we love most. If you've ever thought about starting something new, stepping into discomfort, or redefining what success looks like for your family, this episode is for you.   Learn More & Connect:  

Gerald Jones and Kevin Clark's friendship goes back over 20 years, to the night they first met backstage at the Academy Awards. Their bond grew through creativity, shared values, and a deep desire to make a difference. Together, they later won an Emmy Award for a public service announcement addressing school gun violence - a project that reflected their heart for inspiring hope and protecting the next generation.Beyond their work in media, Gerald and Kevin have also been long-time business partners supporting individuals with developmental disabilities, running programs focused on empowerment and compassion. This commitment to community is woven into everything they do - and it became the foundation of Blessn.The story of Blessn began in March 2023, when Gerald Jones became sick of doom scrolling on social media, and found himself bummed out after every TikTok session. It occurred to him that maybe there was a better way. There should be a short form video social media that uplifted and encouraged instead. He thought it would be better to faith scroll instead of doom scroll. He called his business partner, Kevin Clark, who was feeling the exact same way. They decided to create something themselves, that uplifted people about the world and each other. Something that encouraged connectedness.Over the next several years, the two friends poured their faith, creativity, and personal savings into developing the Blessn app, testing every detail to make sure it felt safe, uplifting, and positive. Their mission is to shift the culture of social media and to make it a place where kindness, faith, and encouragement are celebrated, not drowned out by negativity.At its heart, Blessn is more than an app - it's a movement. A space where users can share uplifting videos, connect with others who believe in goodness, and replace endless “doom scrolling” with “faith scrolling.” Gerald and Kevin believe that positive scrolling has the power to change hearts, strengthen communities, and remind people that light always wins over darkness.For more information on the Blessn app, visit: blessn.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/i-am-refocused-radio--2671113/support.Subscribe now at YouTube.com/@RefocusedNetworkThank you for your time.

Content Warning: There are mentions of racial violence in this episode. If you have sensitivities around this subject, I urge you to take breaks as needed, or step away if it becomes too difficult. In 2023, the murder of Ajike “AJ” Owens shook the country–another Black mother taken too soon in a moment of senseless and unnecessary violence. In the years since, AJ’s story as told on Netflix’s ‘The Perfect Neighbor’ has prompted a larger conversation around race, fear, Stand Your Ground laws, and the everyday realities and dangers Black families navigate in America and in their communities. But AJ was more than a victim of racial violence, she was a woman whose life was filled with love, ambition, and unapologetic hope for her children and her future. Today, I’m pleased to be joined by two women who are integral to carrying AJ’s story forward with courage and purpose. Pamela Dias, AJ’s mother and co-founder of the Standing in the Gap Fund, has turned unfathomable grief into a mission to protect families who face race-based violence and its aftermath. Here with Pamela is her co-founder Takema Robinson, producer, and advocate for racial justice who helped bring AJ’s story to the masses. In this conversation, we explore how their relationship formed, what it means to tell a story shaped by grief, and how storytelling, advocacy, and memory can become pathways to collective healing. We talk about community, justice, and the ongoing fight to ensure that AJ and so many others like her are not forgotten.

In today's episode, Gina shares methods for experiencing more peace and calm you can use during the holidays and beyond. The importance of understanding the "second arrow" concept is emphasized (the second arrow being the extra mental baggage and worry we attach to events in your environment, which we CAN have some control over). Slowing down and freeing ups time and space in our day are among some of the suggestions discussed.

I explore the concept of the "holiday swirl"—that unique blend of excitement and overwhelm where our peaceful moments seem to dwindle. The focus today is about how we can consciously remove the internal pressures that transform joyful gatherings and errands into sources of significant stress.I introduce an essential tool in relieving that pressure: the principle of the second arrow. The first arrow represents the situation we find ourselves in—whether it's being stuck in traffic, waiting in a long line, or dealing with unexpected weather. This is simply life happening in real time. The second arrow, however, is the additional mental anguish we attach to these circumstances—thoughts of self-blame, anxiety over timing, or a sense of impending chaos. I want to emphasize that this second arrow, the rush and frantic mindset, is an optional addition to our experiences.The heart of my discussion encourages a shift in perception: the idea that breathing and embracing a slower pace can cultivate a sense of peace amidst the holiday fuss. I offer listeners a moment to pause, breathe deeply, and embrace the notion that “I'll get there when I get there.” This mindset is not an acceptance of defeat but rather an invitation to experience freedom from the pressures we place upon ourselves, resonating with Gandhi's wisdom that life is more than simply speeding through our tasks.#HolidayStress#AnxietyRelief#SecondArrow#MindfulnessPractice#EmotionalRegulation#SelfCareMatters#StopTheRush#PeacefulHolidays#BreathingTechniques#BuddhaBellyBreathing#Grounding#ProcrastinationHelp#Unschedule#MentalWellness#InnerCalm#LaoTzu#Gandhi#AnxietyCoachesPodcast#GinaRyan#PersonalDevelopment#StressManagement#ACPSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Will Kennedy and Isiah Gray are members of Brothaz in the Foyer, a group that produces content to represent and share the experiences of Black members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. They are part of a larger group of hosts for the Brothaz in the Foyer Podcast, and their goal is to bring people “from the foyer into the chapel.” This conversation explores their personal journeys, the dynamics of race within the Church, and the importance of fostering understanding and inclusivity. Links YouTube: @brothazinthefoyer Instagram: @brothazinthefoyer TikTok: @brothazinthefoyer Paul Reeve books Transcript available with the video in the Zion Lab community Key Insights Experiences in the Temple: Will and Isiah share how their experiences as Black men in the temple often draw attention, highlighting the need for normalization of diverse representation within sacred spaces. Cultural Differences: The hosts discuss how their backgrounds influence their experiences in the Church, noting that cultural differences can lead to misunderstandings and the need for open dialogue. Reconciliation with Church History: Both emphasize the importance of understanding the Church’s history regarding race, including the priesthood ban, and how this knowledge can strengthen faith rather than diminish it. Empathy and Genuine Interaction: They stress the importance of treating all individuals as children of God and engaging in genuine conversations to bridge cultural gaps, rather than making interactions feel forced or awkward. Political Climate and Faith: The discussion touches on the politicization of race and the need for members to prioritize their faith and love for others over political affiliations, promoting unity within the Church. Leadership Applications Foster Open Dialogue: Leaders should create environments where members feel comfortable discussing sensitive topics related to race and culture, encouraging transparency and understanding. Educate on Church History: Leaders can benefit from familiarizing themselves with resources like Paul Reeve’s book on race in the priesthood to better address historical issues and foster inclusivity. Encourage Representation: Leaders should seek diverse voices in leadership roles and callings, recognizing that representation can enhance the community’s strength and unity, while also being mindful not to tokenize individuals based on race.

In this rapid-fire Working Session, Jon and Becky break down storytelling as a core nonprofit skill — not a marketing tactic — and share simple, practical frameworks you can use immediately. From clarifying your values and audience to collecting and activating stories more intentionally, you'll learn how to move supporters from empathy → connection → action and build a storytelling system that drives trust, belonging, and long-term engagement.Top 3 Takeaways:Story Drives Action — Not Tactics: People don't act until they feel something, and they don't stay until they feel like they belong. Learn how to anchor your storytelling in empathy, identity, and shared humanity so your calls to action actually land.Build a Simple Storytelling System: From collecting stories at the end of emails and donation forms to syndicating one story across multiple channels, you'll learn how to turn storytelling into a repeatable workflow — not a one-off creative lift.Tell Stories With Dignity and Trust: Ethical storytelling isn't about rules — it's about relationships. Centering dignity, consent, and agency protects the people behind the stories, strengthens credibility, and builds the kind of trust that fuels long-term community and generosity.This episode is packed with practical, low-lift storytelling moves you can implement today — whether you're writing an email, planning content, onboarding new supporters, or stewarding long-term relationships.Welcome back to Working Sessions: hands-on, clarity-filled conversations designed to help you move real work forward inside your organization.Let's get to work.Episode Highlights: Story as Meaning, Not Marketing (01:24)Preparing for Storytelling: Values, Audiences, and Action (03:07)Building a Culture of Storytelling (04:26)Ethical Storytelling Principles (06:10)Introducing the Impact Arc Framework (08:05)Practical Working Session Activities (11:42)Community as the Accelerant for Storytelling (15:04) Episode Shownotes: www.weareforgood.com/episode/666//Join the We Are For Good Community—completely free.Join fellow changemakers, share takeaways from this working session, and keep collaborating in a space built for connection, inspiration, and real impact: www.weareforgoodcommunity.com Say hi

What if you could reduce chronic pain, stress, and tension in just 15 minutes a day—without pills, surgeries, or endless appointments?In this conversation, I sit down with Jason van Blerk, former professional soccer player and co-founder of the Human Garage fascia method. Jason shares why he and his team closed their successful Los Angeles clinic after nearly a decade and shifted to one mission: democratizing self-healing so people can learn to heal their own bodies.

Feel like you're in a routine of work, happy hour/holiday parties, too much food or alcohol and too little sleep? Or maybe you're looking for social plans that don't revolve around cocktails. If you struggle with blood sugar crashes, afternoon slumps, and that constant feeling of hunger, this episode may just be the key to finally feeling in control of your health—especially during the holiday season.In this episode of Salad With a Side of Fries, Jenn Trepeck welcomes Sarah Wragge, founder of Sarah Wragge Wellness, to discuss building a community and connecting with colleagues or friends without relying on alcohol-centered social events.
