Podcasts about Compassion

Spirituality is a complex and sometimes convoluted concept to discuss. How would the Buddha explain spirituality? In this podcast, Bhante Sathi explains that spirituality is not tied to religion or belief in a higher power but to cultivating a calm, compassionate, and generous mind. True spirituality is universal and arises from inner qualities rather than cultural or religious identity. Bhante clarifies that generosity and compassion are practices done for one's own inner peace, not for others. Over time, these qualities deepen through intentional repetition. Spiritual growth comes from examining where we fall short and how we can use mindfulness to transform the inner self. Ultimately, spirituality develops through practicing equality, removing conditions in how we view others, and consistently choosing actions that cultivate a peaceful mind.

The Dalai Lama: The Simple Path of Compassion The Path of Radical Simplicity concludes the series. In this next-to-last episode of the series, we honor The Dalai Lama, Tenzin Gyatso. We explore how his radical simplicity—rooted in a monk's austerity and his message of compassion—has made him a global force for peace and a living testament to the power of inner freedom.

So many of our choices look kind on the outside—but underneath, they're powered by fear. The fear of being judged, misunderstood, left out, or not enough. In this episode, we'll explore how to tell the difference between acting from fear and acting from compassion, and why this one subtle shift can completely change how you feel about yourself—and how you show up in your life. If you've ever walked away from a moment wondering why you said yes when you meant no, this conversation is for you.

Send us a textWhile I was researching the history of California, the history of Florida and the Pacific Crest Trail, there was a common thread, atrocities done to the first people to inhabit North America.I've hiked to places where blood was shed and sometimes I've found a marker, but often not. This is a history we need to remember, a pain that should be looked at straight on, and a healing that can only happen if we are honest about this part of United States history.Feels like Thanksgiving is a good time to have this conversation.Let's get into it.***The dissemination of this history in no way makes up for what was done to First People. And no podcast episode can heal a hurt. As a woman born in North America, I respect whatever path to heal the First People take. It is simply my goal to keep the history alive and offer a hand and a bear hug to those that need it.I don't accept sponsors and paid advertisers. I choose people, podcasts and authors I believe in to highlight in the ad segment. That's why I've been shining a spotlight on Derek Condit at Mystical Wares.

In this episode, I sit down with Jenny Marrs, author, adoptive mom, and co-host of HGTV's Fixer to Fabulous, for a tender and deeply human conversation about grief, waiting, restoration, and the steady presence of God in the middle of it all. Jenny shares openly about a season of profound loss, the long and miraculous journey to bring her daughter home from the Congo, and the everyday choice to trust God when life feels overwhelming or out of control. We talk about compassion in a divided world, what it means to “go with the strength you have,” and how the smallest moments, from heart-shaped stones to a stranger's kindness to a child's simple confession of faith, can become markers of God's faithfulness. This is an honest and hopeful look at what it means to live out Trust God, Love People in real time, and I believe her story will be both grounding and deeply encouraging for you.Jenny Marrs is a designer, author, and passionate advocate for community transformation, family preservation, and orphan care around the globe. She is the author of House + Home = Love, and co-hosts Fixer to Fabulous with her husband, Dave. She and Dave live on a small farm in Bentonville, Arkansas, with their five kids and too many animals to count.Jenny's Book:Trust God, Love PeopleJenny's Recommendation:HeartlandConnect with Joshua: jjohnson@shiftingculturepodcast.comGo to www.shiftingculturepodcast.com to interact and donate.

Beloved,Power is energy. Our words are the infrastructure that contains it.Consider a river: a small stream nourishes a tiny area; a big river with deep banks irrigates a valley and transforms a region.Capacity is determined by the container. Our conscious, integrated language forms our foundation and container. The deeper you are aware, the more power you can hold, enabling you to sustain a a richer life, in full agency of your personal inner and out relationships. The NEW SOVEREIGN SOUNDS PRIVATE PODCAST supports rebuilding the energetics in words we use. Enjoy each interview with the essence of a word within the lexicon we speak. The awareness brings us to choose words that build banks, not draining energy. One of the most painful things we experience is witnessing those we love—and humanity—suffer. It's in our DNA; people naturally seek out those who hold space with compassion for advice or help. In a world longing for non-judgmental compassion, free from personal motives, this is more important than ever. Historically, compassion was never a soft, fluffy word.In ancient Buddhist texts, it was “karuna”—the heartbeat of awakening.In Hebrew, “rachamim”—from the same root as “womb.” Literal life-bearing care.By the Enlightenment, though, compassion got a makeover. It went from sacred embodiment to corporate talking point.Even Florence Nightingale knew better.Each week, we trace a word's origin through the vertical prism—its pure, spiritual essence in the Akashic field—and its horizontal path through history, where power structures warp meaning.The four power dynamics:* Power Over: Domination via distorted definitions* Power Under: Submission to inherited cultural narratives* Power With: Co-creating meaning through shared truth* Power Within: Sovereign reclamation of a word's original lightLearn to spot hidden agendas in language.What's the point?As we speak, the words we use cast energetic spells unconsciously, not to mention having them projected onto us. To bring knowledge into integration, enjoy a COMPANION BOOK to pin point how you can transform the way you identify with the words you speak within your consciousness.

Doing good for others benefits our own minds and bodies, as well. We explore the science of kindness.Summary: On this episode of The Science of Happiness we explore how everyday acts of kindness strengthen our sense of connection and belonging, and why our brains are built to feel good when we support others. Drawing from both research and lived experience, we examine how even small gestures can reduce anxiety, increase purpose, and ripple outward through our communities. We also look at why kindness flourishes when it's spontaneous and genuine, and how practicing it can open us to deeper presence, vulnerability, and joy.How To Do This Practice: Set an intention: Take a moment each evening to reflect on the day ahead and choose a general theme for how you want to show kindness. Like offering gratitude, being more present, or supporting someone who comes to mind. Keep it flexible: Rather than creating a rigid checklist, identify a few broad “buckets” of kindness so you can let opportunities arise naturally. Notice moments to connect: As you move through your day, look for organic openings to offer warmth. Whether through a sincere compliment, a helpful gesture, or simply slowing down to truly listen. Act on what feels genuine: Choose gestures that feel authentic to you and appropriate to the moment, aiming for sincerity over perfection. Reflect briefly: At the end of the day, jot down the acts you did and how they felt—for you and for others—paying attention to small emotional shifts or moments of connection. Stay gentle with yourself: If you miss a moment or a day feels off, reset without judgment; the practice is about cultivating awareness and kindness, not completing a task list.

Chaz Ebert, CEO of Ebert Digital and publisher of RogerEbert.com, joins us for an intimate conversation about continuing her late husband Roger Ebert's extraordinary legacy while forging her own path as a champion of empathy and understanding. Chaz shares how Roger's unwavering belief in movies as "empathy machines" continues to shape her work and advocacy.  We dive into her new book, It's Time to Give a FECK, which expands upon the FECK Awards—a playful yet profound acronym celebrating films that embody Forgiveness, Empathy, Compassion, and Kindness. Chaz reveals how these values have become more than just criteria for recognizing cinema; they represent a transformative philosophy for living that she's now sharing with readers everywhere.  Chaz also shares the inside scoop about her own film and directorial debut "Wellness Warrior" which tells the story of the creation of Rancho La Puerta, the famed wellness retreat by 103 year old Deborah Szekely - the "Godmother of Wellness."  Chaz opens up about the power of forgiveness in her own journey, the compassion required to navigate profound loss, and why kindness isn't weakness but rather the strongest foundation for meaningful change. Her insights reveal how Roger's generous spirit and radical empathy continue to inspire new generations of film lovers, critics, and creators—and how she's ensuring that legacy remains a living, breathing force for good in an increasingly divided world.

Should I Not Have Compassion? (Jonah 4) - November 16, 2025 by OrlandoGrace

When we think of social workers, we typically picture them in a hospital, nursing home, or emergency setting. But the Life Care Planning Team at the Elder Law Firm of Bellomo & Associates is different. The LCP team members provide expert guidance for clients and their families in a wide and adaptable range of areas—from home environment safety to quality-of-life aging and complex emotional support.

In the powerful conclusion to our Resurrection series, Tim and Steve explore what it really means to live in light of Jesus' resurrection.This episode takes a hard look at the way Western theology has drifted into escapism—through rapture teaching, disembodied heaven myths, and even the use of violence in the name of Christ. They unpack the biblical and early church vision of new creation, how our glorified bodies will participate in it, and what happens when we die.

Pastor Jack shares a powerful message on compassion—what it is, why it matters, and how it keeps our hearts soft before God. Using the Good Samaritan and Paul's words on the love of Christ, he reminds us that compassion isn't just something we feel, but something we do.

Pastor Troy Smothermon explores what Jesus actually meant when He taught us to love our enemies and respond with grace. Through a pastor's personal story and the words of Luke 6:29–30, we unpack the difference between true Christ-like love and the misconceptions that often surround it.The message makes clear what Jesus is not saying:• He's not calling us to be doormats or to enable abuse.• He's not forbidding self-defense or wisdom in dangerous situations.• He's not asking us to fund someone's dysfunction or irresponsibility.Instead, we learn the power of small acts of kindness, the importance of serving others with joy, and how to walk in discernment, balance, and spiritual maturity. Through teachings from the Beatitudes and other supporting scriptures, we discover how to love fully and wisely.

What if longevity wasn't about adding more to your routine, but about helping your body do what it's already designed to do? Today on Rooted in Wellness, I'm joined by Dan Pardi, Chief Health Officer at Qualia Life Sciences, to explore how stem cells, cellular repair, and resilience actually work in the body. We discuss why recovery shifts as we age, the role of inflammation in slowing regeneration, and how simple lifestyle rhythms like movement, sleep in true darkness, fasting, and circadian alignment create the internal environment for healing. We also look at senolytics, autophagy, and stem cell support through a grounded, science-informed lens that feels accessible rather than extreme. This is the bridge we love on this show: emerging research meeting practical daily life. Dan Pardi leads health strategy and research at Qualia Life Sciences, where he focuses on supporting the body's natural repair systems through education, systems-level formulation, and a healthspan-first approach. His work blends emerging science with real-world application to help people feel well longer.

Grief is a rollercoaster—and for children, the ride can be unpredictable. In this heartfelt episode, CHC experts, Karly Crockett, LCSW, and Rachel O'Harra, LMFT explore how kids experience loss within the family system and why grief should be shared, not silent. They unpack how grief shows up at different developmental stages—from toddlers to teens—and share real examples of what to say (and what to avoid) when talking to kids about death and loss. You'll learn how to support children through emotions that ebb and flow, from confusion to anger to moments of calm, and how your own grief as a caregiver can shape theirs. Because when caregivers make space for a child's feelings, they build connection, resilience, and hope that lasts a lifetime.Resources:CHC OnlineCHC's Catherine T.

Most people don't fail at getting healthy because they don't care. They fail because they're following the wrong advice. In this episode, I sit down with Anthony William, the Medical Medium, to talk about why doing everything “right” can still leave you feeling like crap. We get into how stress, overtesting, and over-supplementing can backfire, and why simplicity beats every hack. He shares how metals in the brain can fuel issues like OCD and ADHD, the five foods he swears by for detox and recovery, and why celery juice became more than just a trend. We also talk about what people get wrong about protein, clean eating, and chasing “optimization.” Whether you love him or question him, this conversation will make you stop and rethink what being healthy really means. Anthony William is the founder of the global celery juice movement and a #1 New York Times best-selling author known for his Medical Medium book series. Since the age of four, he has said he receives health insights from what he calls the Spirit of Compassion, helping people improve their well-being through a more intuitive approach. What we discuss: (05:42) Why “healthy” habits might actually be keeping you sick (13:10) The hidden downside of overtesting (24:57) How the Medical Medium was trained by a voice since childhood (28:45) The real reason you feel tired even when you “do everything right” (44:02) How heavy metals in the brain may trigger OCD and ADHD symptoms (1:11:59) The five foods Anthony swears by for real detox and recovery (01:17:57) Why protein isn't the miracle nutrient you think it is (01:23:39) The truth behind celery juice and why it became a global movement (01:26:11) Why Anthony turned down Hollywood deals and the “health celebrity” circuit Thank you to our sponsors: Therasage: Head over to therasage.com and use code Be Bold for 15% off  Air Doctor: Go to airdoctorpro.com and use promo code HUSTLE for up to $300 off and a 3-year warranty on air purifiers.

The passage begins with a moment of personal sorrow for Jesus, for He has just received news of the death of John the Baptist. We see that Jesus “withdrew from there in a boat to a desolate place by himself” (verse 13). Yet even in His grief, we observe the unrelenting love and compassion of Christ. When the crowds follow Him, “He saw a great crowd, and He had compassion on them” (verse 14). Notice that Jesus does not dismiss the crowds or send them away. Instead, He takes pity on them, healing their sick and addressing their physical and spiritual needs.

In their third session, Zach shifts focus from reparenting the self to rebuilding trust, compassion, and connection in real time. The couple begins by reflecting on the chaos of parenting two neurodivergent children and how exhaustion, overwhelm, and constant caregiving have reshaped their marriage. The wife shares that while parenting has deep purpose and spiritual meaning, it also leaves her feeling “brought to her knees.” The husband expresses gratitude for their new home in Lisbon and admiration for her recent self-care efforts—but his words about “having more respect” land in a complicated way. What unfolds next is a layered conversation about respect versus compassion—how differently each experiences and defines those words, and how love can be both abundant and still “not land.” The wife reveals her fear that her “bucket has a hole”—that trauma keeps love from staying inside. The husband wrestles with the feeling of being both compassionate and exhausted. Zach guides them toward clarity: that differences in meaning, experience, and emotional wiring don't mean disconnection—they're invitations to co-create a shared vocabulary of care. By the end, the trio lands on a metaphor for healing: building an inner “city with a well and garden”. A healthy place inside the self where gratitude, curiosity, and compassion can grow. From there, they imagine a next step; ten intentional days of small, mutual choices to create a shared sense of safety and hope. Key Takeaways Parenting exposes purpose and pressure – Raising neurodivergent kids has deepened their sense of mission but also stretched their capacity for joy. Respect and compassion can get tangled – The husband's expression of regained respect triggers the wife's old shame wounds, revealing how love languages can misfire even when intentions are good. Compassion must land – It's not about whether compassion exists, but whether it's experienced and felt. Trauma leaves “holes in the bucket” – The wife describes how past pain can make love hard to hold, even when it's generously offered. Shame cycles need space – Zach helps her imagine creating a small pause between shame and reaction—a mindful sliver that grows with practice. Safety over sameness – Each partner's version of health looks different, but the shared goal is to meet in a “healthy place,” not to drag the other toward one definition. Gratitude and agency go together – The husband learns that his peace can't depend on her choices; it must come from cultivating gratitude within himself. Ten-day goals – They agree to take small, concrete steps—ten days at a time—to make life together a little “more good” and a little “less bad.” Learn more about your ad choices.

Dr. Richard Boyatzis, joins Dr. Bradley Block to unpack why even accomplished physicians often lose their sense of meaning mid-career. Drawing from his Intentional Change Theory, Dr. Boyatzis explains that fulfillment dips every 7–10 years as part of our natural life cycle — what he calls liminality, the space between “what was” and “what's next.” The fix isn't distraction (real estate, side gigs, or skydiving), but rediscovering your vision — your “ideal self” — and aligning daily work with your true values.He warns against the trap of coaching for compliance — trying to fix patients (or yourself) through fear and goals. Instead, focus on coaching with compassion — inspiring sustained change through purpose, gratitude, and hope. Physicians, he says, thrive when they reconnect to why they entered medicine: to help, heal, and matter. Through personal stories, neuroscience, and humor, Dr. Boyatzis offers a practical roadmap for reigniting passion without abandoning your profession — whether that means teaching, mentoring, volunteering, or simply reframing success through renewed purpose.Three Actionable Takeaways:Revisit Your Vision Every 7–10 Years:  Midlife restlessness isn't failure — it's biology. Reflect on your ideal self by asking, “If my life were fantastic 10–15 years from now, what would it look like?” Write it down, talk it out, and use it to guide new choices in work and life.Coach (and Care) with Compassion, Not Compliance: Patients — and physicians — change through hope, not fear. Replace “If you don't…” warnings with vision-driven goals (“What do you want to live for?”). Shared purpose boosts motivation, treatment adherence, and well-being.Recharge with Purposeful Connection: Gratitude and positive storytelling aren't fluff — they activate the parasympathetic system and restore energy. Start meetings or days with one uplifting story, or jot three things you're grateful for. It rewires stress into meaning. About the Show:Succeed In Medicine  covers patient interactions, burnout, career growth, personal finance, and more. If you're tired of dull medical lectures, tune in for real-world lessons we should have learned in med school!Dr. Richard Boyatzis is a Distinguished University Professor at Case Western Reserve University and one of the world's most cited scholars on emotional intelligence, leadership, and behavior change.

In this talk Mary emphasized the importance of being connected to our body and the wisdom it contains. When we live in our heads, we can get stuck in views and perceptions and we miss out on the experience of the moment. The Buddha said that the world is in this fathom-long body, not just in our heads. Being connected allows us to live with a wise heart.Recorded Nov. 15, 2025 in the virtual worldSend me a text with any questions or comments!

What happens when compassion, strength, and military medicine collide?In this Echo Episode, Dr. Andrea Austin speaks with Dr. Kat Landa, a Navy emergency physician whose career has taken her from a nontraditional path in medical school to a groundbreaking role as the first female battalion doctor assigned to a Marine Corps artillery unit.Kat recounts her childhood working in nursing homes, discovering medicine through geriatrics, and initially matching into family medicine before realizing her passion for emergency medicine. Her story takes a dramatic turn when she is unexpectedly assigned to 29 Palms as the first woman integrated into a previously all-male combat arms battalion—an environment shaped by intense hierarchy, alpha culture, and unspoken rules.She shares vividly, the shock of Marines lining up with “testicular pain” to see the new female doctor, navigating sexism, boundaries, and expectations to be the battalion's “warm fuzzy”, the emotional labor women physicians disproportionately shoulder, the traumatic burden many Marines carry through TBI, PTSD, and toxic norms, the deep meaning she found advocating for vulnerable service members—sometimes saving lives and how burnout, deployment, and personal crisis pushed her toward meditation and self-reclamation Dr. Landa's journey is raw, insightful, and deeply human, a reminder that leadership requires both backbone and heart, especially when systems aren't built with you in mind.You'll hear how they:Navigate gender bias and male-dominated culture while staying authenticBuild boundaries to survive overwhelming workloads and emotional laborUse compassion strategically—in 45-second doses—to transform patient interactionsAdvocate for Marines suffering from PTSD, TBI, and weight-related stigmaRecover from burnout through meditation, mindful routines, and self-care practicesFind strength in vulnerability and redefine what it means to lead in uniform If you've ever struggled to find your voice in a demanding system, this episode will move you, challenge you, and help you rediscover your center.About the Guest:“At your core, it's still just you—and you have control over you.” – Dr. Kat LandaDr. Kat Landa is a Navy emergency medicine physician whose career spans urgent care, family medicine internship, operational medicine with the Marine Corps, multiple deployments, and emergency department leadership.She was one of the first women assigned to a Marine Corps artillery battalion, where she learned to navigate gender dynamics, advocate for Marines suffering from invisible wounds, and lead with courage and compassion.Her interests include meditation, women's leadership, stress physiology, military wellness, and redefining what it means to thrive in demanding environments.

On this powerful evening, Kris shared a heart-stirring message about the radical compassion of Jesus. Are we extending mercy to both victims AND victimizers? Through personal stories of working with juvenile delinquents and his recent visit to juvenile hall, Kris challenges us to look beyond behavior to see the broken hearts beneath. Jesus wept with Mary at Lazarus's tomb. Knowing He would raise him moments later, he demonstrated to us that compassion isn't weakness but a revolutionary Kingdom value. When we understand people's stories, our judgment turns to mercy. Listen in as Kris shares how God is awakening compassion in His church for the immigrant, the prisoner, and those society has written off.

This week we're discussing The Truth We Don't Want to Face.  When betrayal, ongoing conflict, or a child's escalating behavior keeps reopening old wounds, it's easy to reduce people to their worst moments. That mindset feels protective, yet it shrinks our capacity for peace, models bitterness to our kids, and keeps us tethered to pain. Marissa Lee, author and single parent, joins Robert and Elizabeth to unpack how learning to separate a person's worth from their actions helps us heal, set clearer boundaries, and stay grounded in dignity—ours and theirs. Today, we cover three main points: Contempt dehumanizes. What contempt looks like, how it spreads in our homes and culture, and why it leaves relationships stuck. Compassion expands our capacity. How extending dignity to others softens the shame within us and frees our energy for what matters. Practical ways to see worth. Simple, repeatable steps to move from judgment to curiosity, from reactivity to agency, including naming our feelings, resetting expectations, and choosing actions that align with our values. Seeing someone's humanity isn't excusing harm—it's refusing to let contempt define you. Curiosity builds bridges; ask "why" before deciding "who" someone is. Your children feel how you speak about the other parent, and honoring their other parent protects your child's sense of self. Boundaries require agency—state what you will do and follow through. Resources Mentioned In This Episode The Gottman Institute – Research from Dr. John Gottman on how contempt is one of the strongest predictors of relationship breakdown.
