Full Text of Readings The Saint of the day is Martyrdom of Saint John the Baptist The Story of the Martyrdom of Saint John the Baptist The drunken oath of a king with a shallow sense of honor, a seductive dance and the hateful heart of a queen combined to bring about the martyrdom of John the Baptist. The greatest of prophets suffered the fate of so many Old Testament prophets before him: rejection and martyrdom. The “voice crying in the desert” did not hesitate to accuse the guilty, did not hesitate to speak the truth. But why? What possesses a man that he would give up his very life? This great religious reformer was sent by God to prepare the people for the Messiah. His vocation was one of selfless giving. The only power that he claimed was the Spirit of Yahweh. “I am baptizing you with water, for repentance, but the one who is coming after me is mightier than I. I am not worthy to carry his sandals. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire” (Matthew 3:11). Scripture tells us that many people followed Saint John the Baptist looking to him for hope, perhaps in anticipation of some great messianic power. John never allowed himself the false honor of receiving these people for his own glory. He knew his calling was one of preparation. When the time came, he led his disciples to Jesus: “The next day John was there again with two of his disciples, and as he watched Jesus walk by, he said, ‘Behold, the Lamb of God.' The two disciples heard what he said and followed Jesus” (John 1:35-37). It is John the Baptist who has pointed the way to Christ. John's life and death were a giving over of self for God and other people. His simple style of life was one of complete detachment from earthly possessions. His heart was centered on God and the call that he heard from the Spirit of God speaking to his heart. Confident of God's grace, he had the courage to speak words of condemnation, repentance, and salvation. Reflection Each of us has a calling to which we must listen. No one will ever repeat the mission of Saint John the Baptist, and yet all of us are called to that very mission. It is the role of the Christian to witness to Jesus. Whatever our position in this world, we are called to be disciples of Christ. By our words and deeds, others should realize that we live in the joy of knowing that Jesus is Lord. We do not have to depend upon our own limited resources, but can draw strength from the vastness of Christ's saving grace.Saint of the Day, Copyright Franciscan Media

How to Feel Confident Decorating Your Home (Even If You Don't Trust Your Own Taste Yet) How do you become more confident decorating your home? You become more confident when you stop relying on endless inspiration and start learning a simple process for making decorating decisions. Confidence doesn't come from suddenly knowing exactly what to buy or having perfect taste...it comes from understanding your own style, making decisions, and learning to trust yourself along the way. Have you ever looked at a room in your home and thought, I know what I like when I see it...I just don't know how to make it happen in my house? Maybe you've saved hundreds of beautiful rooms on Pinterest. Maybe you've taken the quizzes, followed the designers, wandered through HomeGoods and Target, and still find yourself standing in your own living room wondering what the heck you're supposed to do. Here's the thing... You probably don't need more inspiration. You need confidence. And sometimes, the easiest way to begin building your own confidence is to borrow someone else's for a little while. In this episode, I'm talking about what actually changes when you start trusting yourself with your home...and why having someone walk alongside you can help you build the confidence to eventually make those decisions on your own. In this episode, we'll talk about: Why more Pinterest inspiration isn't necessarily going to make you more confident decorating your home How having a process can help you stop second-guessing every decorating decision Why past decorating attempts that didn't stick aren't proof that you're bad at decorating What to do when you feel like you don't have enough time to tackle your home How borrowing someone else's confidence can help you begin building your own Why you don't need to overhaul your entire house to start making meaningful progress You don't need to become a completely different person to create a home you're proud of. You don't need perfect taste. You don't need a giant budget. And you definitely don't need another 400 Pinterest pins. You need a way to make decisions...and enough confidence to make the next one. Because eventually, the goal isn't to need Dani to tell you what to do. The goal is to learn enough that you can look at your own home and think, "I know what this needs." And that is a very different kind of decorating confidence. Something is coming very soon that was created specifically to help you get there...and I'll be sharing more about it next week. Keep listening If you've been wanting to feel more confident in your home but aren't sure where to begin, start with the episodes and resources inside the Cozy Home Collective. You'll find simple decorating education, ongoing support, and a place to keep learning at your own pace. And if you're brand new to my world, The Cozy Home Method is the foundation behind the way I teach decorating...helping you create a home that feels cohesive, personal, and cozy without making decorating harder than it needs to be.   ✨✨THE COZY HOME WORKSHOP ✨✨ 3 Steps to Creating a Home you Can't Wait to Come Home To September 9 - 11th 9:00am PST | 10:00am MST | 11:00am CST | 12:00pm EST  Register for The Cozy Home Workshop   // Other Important Links : // Become a Design Bestie by joining the newsletter: https://bit.ly/designbestie Email: https://figandfarmathome.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/figandfarm/ FREE Facebook Community: https://www.bit.ly/design101group   A note about this episode The full episode transcript appears below so you can read, search, or revisit the ideas we talked about.

Most photographers just check their competitors' pricing. Most educators just say "you just have to show your value." Most amateurs just guess. And that's how the majority of the photography industry raises their pricing.I've found that this is all wrong. There's no quick fix for raising your pricing, but there is a specific way to do it the right way, so that you actually get BOOKED at those higher prices, you feel CONFIDENT when you show them, and you know mathematically that you are WORTH those prices. This is an episode straight from my YouTube channel, and I wanted to bring it over to the podcast today while I'm out of office this week, speaking in California for a photography workshop.

Women are told to be strong, but not hard. Confident, but not intimidating. Emotional, but for the love of God, don't be too sensitive. Apparently, there's some magical “just right” version of womanhood—but nobody seems to have the address. In this episode of This Is Woman's Work, Nicole Kalil talks with Dr. Sasha Hamdani, board-certified psychiatrist, mental health educator, and author of Too Sensitive about why feeling deeply isn't a flaw to fix. They unpack rejection sensitive dysphoria (RSD), what happens when emotions hijack logic, how hormones impact sensitivity, and practical ways to regulate without stuffing, numbing, or apologizing for what's being felt. In This Episode: Why sensitivity isn't weakness—and can actually be a leadership strength What rejection sensitive dysphoria is and why rejection can hit so damn hard How to regulate emotions without suppressing them Why hormones matter more than women have been taught Why the goal isn't thicker skin—it's greater self-awareness and control Feeling deeply isn't the same as being fragile. The goal isn't to become less sensitive—it's to understand it, work with it, and stop shrinking perfectly human parts of ourselves just because they make someone else uncomfortable.

Rich & Ken with Ted Johnson | Wednesday 8/26/2026

Throughout a summer of unexpected experiences, God showed us that He is good all the time. A Job-like season- that was my summer. I am sharing it because it is a perfect example of how God is good all the time. His character is definitive. He never leaves us or forsakes us. At the end of 2025, I chose the word trust for 2026. This summer, God showed me, through God winks, that trust in him is imperative to live this life. He gave me constant opportunities to build that trust and lean into it. I am finally catching my breath. It has been wild, an absolutely emotional summer. The Summer Began With a Farmhouse Dream And then a health crisis for our son The day after we closed on the farmhouse, we were set to fly to Greece for my daughter's graduation gift. The night before, at 8 p.m., we were at the farmhouse teaching friends how to care for the three sheep we inherited with the house. My husband's phone rang. It was my son's fiancée's father. He said our son was on his way to the hospital by ambulance. That was all he knew. Emergency Surgery Showed God's Hand in the Chaos The waiting game. Confident they are meant for each other. Sudden Grief Met Unmistakable God Winks Almost a month to the day after our son's surgery, my niece called me at 4 a.m. My brother-in-law had chest pain, fell, and had no pulse. For the next hour, I prayed the rosary, and my husband and I lay awake praying. At 5 a.m., we got the call that despite the efforts of medical staff, he did not survive. Still hard to handle - One thing she said over and over is "how do people do this without faith?" A Violin in the Rain: An Unforgettable God Wink Leaving our home of twenty-six years brought a new set of emotions After returning from the funeral in Illinois, it was time to pack up the house and get our daughter ready for college. Due to the unexpected events of the summer, she had to do a lot of her packing herself. Not only packing for college, but also packing up her childhood bedroom. It was an emotional week. Plans Changed The move has always been an underlying source of emotions since we closed on the farmhouse in June. We thought we had planned precisely so that we could move into the carriage house during renovations of the main house. But you know what they say about making plans - man makes plans, and God laughs. Empty Nester And now, the empty nest phase of our lives begins. I was not prepared for how emotional I would be leaving my daughter 14 hours away. No one could have prepared me for going from seeing two of my kids (the third lives and works in the DC metro area) every day to seeing none of them. I miss them fiercely. But I am also thrilled that they have these opportunities to grow and spread their wings, and I trust that God will guide and protect them on their new journeys. Scripture That Carried Us Through the Unexpected Several Bible verses carried me through the summer. The first I would like to share is 2 Timothy 1:7, which says God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but power, love, and self-control. Philippians 3:13-14 reminds me to stop dwelling on the past and press on toward what is ahead. Jeremiah 29:11 says God's plans are for our welfare, not to harm us, but to give us hope and a future. Isaiah 41:10 says not to fear, because God is with us and will strengthen us. God Is Good All the Time — Even When Life Is Hard Read the full show notes.

What if the most outgoing, confident person in the room is also the most anxious? We tend to picture anxiety as someone visibly shrinking back but for many people, it wears a smile, works the room, and never lets on how hard it's fighting underneath. In this episode, Dr. Beth Capecchi sits down with Nick, a warm, high-energy young man whose easy confidence hides a daily battle most people never see. Episode Overview Dr. Beth first met Nick at a car dealership, struck by how naturally engaging and self-assured he was, never guessing the anxiety and depression he quietly carries. In this candid conversation, Nick opens up about high-functioning anxiety, the exhaustion of always "getting in front of it," and the toll of constantly trying to control the uncertainty around him. Together they explore why confidence and anxiety so often coexist, how transition stress can leave even capable people feeling like they're running on empty, and why learning to give ourselves grace may be the bravest work of all. It's an honest, encouraging look at what it really takes to keep showing up when your own mind is your toughest critic. What You'll Learn Why outward confidence and social ease can mask deep, invisible anxiety and why "you don't seem anxious" can feel so isolating Nick's "get in front of it" strategy for facing social fear head-on, and how "grabbing the bull by the horns" builds real coping confidence How transition stress, like starting a new job can overwhelm the brain and why you can't expect yourself to run at 100% The double-edged sword of anxiety that both propels you forward and quietly wears you down Dr. Beth's key question for anyone who pushes too hard: "What is healthy and best for me right now to push through, or to protect my energy?" The freeing idea of being "twice exceptional"  where a diagnosis like anxiety or ADHD is both a struggle to carry and a genuine gift Why self-compassion and grace for others and for ourselves may be the most important skill of all Guest Information This episode features Nick, a courageous therapy client of Dr. Beth's who generously agreed to share his story on the show. As a client rather than a public figure, Nick keeps his personal channels private but his openness offers listeners something rare: an unfiltered, real-life window into what high-functioning anxiety actually feels like from the inside.

Give it a listen, take a breath, and let it remind you to offer yourself a little more grace today.

Hidden blind spots, ego, and unexamined assumptions quietly sabotage trust, culture, and growth for even the smartest leaders. Today's guest, Bill Miller, veteran executive, advisor, and author of “What Every CEO Must Know: 37 Secrets to Lead with Confidence and Power” and “The Rookie CEO: You Can't Make This Stuff Up,” helps founders and CEOs uncover the costly leadership mistakes everyone else can see but no one feels safe enough to say out loud. In this episode of Marketer of the Day, Bill breaks down the concept of CEO blind spots, those invisible gaps in thinking and decision-making that show up in hiring, restructuring, communication, and strategy. Drawing on nearly 40 years as a senior executive across startups, venture-backed companies, and multibillion-dollar enterprises, he explains why even brilliant founders and technical leaders get stuck when they step into the CEO role for the first time. From the Peter Principle to imposter syndrome, Bill shows how smart leaders can still make disastrous choices if they don't build the right habits of reflection and feedback. You'll learn Bill's simple but powerful practice called the “mirror meeting,” a 15–20 minute weekly check-in with yourself to review what you accomplished, what you missed, who's still waiting on you, and what's truly keeping the business from moving forward. Bill reveals how pairing this ritual with tools like ChatGPT or Claude can turn journaling into a practical system for better decisions, accountability, and follow-through. Instead of letting tasks, worries, and strategic priorities live only in your head, the mirror meeting creates a written record that keeps you aligned, honest, and focused on what only you as CEO can do. Bill also shares a real-world story of a CEO who announced a major restructuring moving marketing offshore without first speaking to the leader most affected. That single blind spot triggered fear, confusion, and lost momentum across the company. From this and other hard-earned lessons, Bill explains why ego “feels like strength, but is a trap,” and why difficult conversations and one-on-ones are non-negotiable if you want real psychological safety and committed teams. https://youtu.be/p8jNfT2__rc?si=tXSvLH4V6cugvB7e To help founders, first-time CEOs, and “stuck” long-time leaders know where to begin, Bill introduces his CEO Navigator System, a free online assessment at BeelineBill.com that pinpoints the top two or three areas where a CEO needs support. Based on decades in the trenches, not just theory, this assessment and Bill's Blind Spot Intensive are designed to give leaders a clear starting point, practical routines, and language to recognize and resolve their blind spots before they become company-breaking problems. If you're a founder-CEO, technical leader, or long-time business owner who feels overwhelmed, stuck, or quietly unsure what you're missing, this conversation will give you frameworks, questions, and habits to see what you can't see, make better decisions, and lead with more confidence and clarity under pressure. Quotes: “Blind spots are gaps at decision points. People around you see them, but you can't necessarily see them yourself.” “Some of the biggest challenges CEOs have come from preconceived notions about how they make decisions.” “Every CEO's plate is overflowing. Your job is to get to the things that only you can do, and let others handle the rest.” Contact Details: Find The Blind Spots Holding Your Business Back: Take The Free CEO Assessment Today Connect With Bill On LinkedIn For Practical Business Growth Strategies Subscribe To Bill's YouTube Channel For Actionable Strategies And Real-World Business Wisdom What Every CEO Must Know: 37 Secrets to Lead with Confidence and Power on Amazon The Rookie CEO: You Can't Make This Stuff Up on Amazon

Hey hey beautiful human! So many of us have made a quiet deal with ourselves. Once I lose the weight, then I will feel confident. Then I will wear the dress. Then I will book the trip. Then I will stop hiding in photos. Then I will finally feel comfortable in my own skin. Well, I get why that feels true. When the discomfort feels tied to your body, it makes sense to think changing your body will fix it. But here is the part that so many women do not realize: losing the weight can change your body, but it does not automatically change the way you see yourself. In this bonus episode of Embrace Your Real, we are talking about the "when I lose the weight" deal so many women make with themselves, why it does not always give you what it promises, and how to start building real confidence in the body you have right now. What's Discussed: Why the "I will feel confident when I lose the weight" mindset feels so believable How the finish line can keep moving even after you reach a goal Why changing your body does not automatically change how you see yourself Where confidence actually starts to come from Why keeping small promises to yourself matters so much How movement can help you build proof that you show up for yourself The one small promise to choose this week so you can start building confidence now And if the promise you choose this week is movement, the Movement With Julie app makes that simple. You get five brand-new workouts each week that are challenging, effective, and time efficient with minimal equipment, so you are not wasting energy wondering what to do.

Are you searching for the "perfect" curriculum for your neurodivergent or twice exceptional child? This week's episode of the podcast dives into why the magical curriculum doesn't exist—and what really matters instead. The conversation focused on practical strategies for adapting curriculum to fit your unique learner, why flexibility is more valuable than aesthetics, and the importance of serving your child—not the other way around. If you've ever felt frustrated by programs that didn't work for your family, this episode is for you! Key Takeaways Curriculum Must Bend: Prioritize flexibility over perfection—choose resources that can adapt to your child's needs, pace, and interests. Serve the Child, Not the Curriculum: The best curriculum is the one you'll actually use and that fits the learner right in front of you—not just what looks good online. Beware of Sunk Costs: Don't stick with something that isn't working just because you spent money on it—adjust, adapt, or move on guilt-free. Support Strengths and Challenges: Aim for tools that nourish your child's gifts while scaffolding their areas of difficulty, instead of sacrificing one for the other. Embrace Rabbit Trails: Value curiosity—let your child follow their interests, knowing that real learning often happens off the prescribed path.

Donald Trump is once again reaching out to Kim Jong Un, praising their personal relationship, calling for a reduction in U.S.-South Korea military exercises and claiming the North Korean leader has responded “very positively.” This week, NK News Lead Correspondent Shreyas Reddy joins the podcast to unpack what Trump actually said, how closely it resembles his 2018 diplomacy playbook and why the U.S. president may be turning toward North Korea again. He also discusses Washington and Seoul's decision to cut the Ulchi Freedom Shield exercise from 11 days to five after Trump's directive, as well as what the abrupt change could mean for alliance cohesion.  Later, Shreyas explains why Kim would enter any renewed diplomacy from a much stronger position than he did in 2018 and looks at why U.S. strikes on Iran have further reinforced North Korea's rejection of denuclearization. The episode concludes with the possible ways Pyongyang could respond to Trump's overtures and the risk that renewed leader-to-leader diplomacy could leave South Korea on the sidelines.  About the podcast: The North Korea News Podcast is a weekly podcast hosted by Alannah Hill exclusively for NK News, covering all things DPRK — from news to extended interviews with leading experts and analysts in the field, along with insight from our very own journalists.

I still remember what it felt like to walk into a therapy session and have no idea how to move forward.Early in my career, I was working with autistic learners with complex communication and behavioral needs, and I quickly realized graduate school had not prepared me for everything I was seeing. I wanted to help, but I didn't always have practical strategies I could use when a learner struggled to attend, engage, or communicate. That experience sent me searching for better answers and ultimately shaped the way I practice today.More than 20 years later, I want clinicians to have something I desperately needed back then: support, practical education, and a community that helps you feel confident about what to do next.That's why I created the ABA Speech Connection. It brings speech therapists, BCBAs, and RBTs together to learn evidence-based strategies, earn CEUs, collaborate, and immediately apply what they're learning with autistic students. From AAC and functional communication to clinical roundtables and live learning, everything is designed to make professional development practical and useful.You don't have to spend hours searching for your next CEU or wonder whether you're doing enough. You can have a place to learn, ask questions, and keep growing alongside professionals who care about helping every student communicate with the world.#autism #speechtherapyWhat's Inside:Why my early clinical experiences shaped the ABA Speech ConnectionHow ongoing education can build confidence and strengthen clinical practicePractical learning around AAC, communication, and evidence-based interventionHow the Connection supports individuals and professional teamsMentioned In This Episode:Say It With Me by Rose GriffinAAC Mastery for SLPs and BCBAsEarn CEUs with a community of peers.

Do you spend more time wishing your past had gone differently than actually building your coaching business?In this episode, Candy introduces her Confident Coach's Success Framework, five pillars she uses with every client and in her own life. Today's focus is the first one: accept what is.Acceptance isn't passive. It isn't pretending everything's fine. It's choosing not to fight your current reality so you can actually design what comes next. Candy shares her own story of getting an engineering degree she never wanted, years of regret over it, and how she finally made peace with that chapter of her life. She also walks through what it looks like to accept yourself, not just your circumstances, and why that shift is often the first real step toward building a coaching business you're proud of.Free resource mentioned as Candy's free gift: The 90-Minute Coaching Business Blueprint: https://candymotzek.lpages.co/vfo/

The sermon explores the theme of Christian confidence found exclusively in Jesus Christ, using Psalm 27 as the primary text. It emphasizes that believers possess assurance not because of their own fluctuating feelings or works, but because Christ is their light, salvation, and strength. The message highlights the doctrine of justification, explaining that all sins are put away on the cross, allowing God to view believers through the perfect righteousness of His Son. Additionally, it underscores the eternal security of the elect, noting that since God forsook Christ on the cross, He will never forsake those united with Him. The preacher concludes by urging listeners to rest in this sufficient sacrifice and wait patiently on the Lord.

Hey lady! When you see someone you perceive as having great confidence do you seethe with envy or do you admire them and wonder how you can get some of your own motion? This week, Terri and Dr. Dom break down why Black women who exude confidence and self-assuredness get so much hate thrown their way. In today’s popular culture it seems as if you step out into the public eye with high self-regard and good self-concept chances are you are going to catch your fair share of haters. Should you let that stop you? No. But, as a human is it possible to sting when it happens? Sure, which is why Terri and Dr. Dom impart some wisdom about how to still do your thing without worrying about what others think and have to say. Hint: Because 9 times out of 10 whatever is making them uncomfortable is a them thing, so keep doing you, boo!

Confidence has become the thing everyone's waiting for to deliver their 'dream' life. Once I'm more confident, I'll launch it. Once I'm more confident, I'll speak up. Once I'm more confident, I'll apply, I'll move, I'll ask. And so we wait... Here's the problem with confidence - it's fragile. It goes up when things go well and falls flat the second they don't. Which means the one time you need it most is the exact moment it abandons you. In this episode I'm sharing three qualities I think are wildly underrated - and far better to build your life on than confidence. They're not feelings you have to wait for. They're choices you can make right now, today, before you've achieved a single thing or proven you're any good at it. I'll walk you through what each one actually means (the first one especially - most people get it completely wrong), why they work hardest precisely when things are going badly, and the one question that unlocks each of them in the moment you need it. I also tell you about the time I walked on stage having realised something about my lapel mic that I'd very much prefer to forget. You'll cringe. I've made peace with it. In this episode: — Why "once I'm more confident" is the sentence keeping you stuck — The quality most people mistake for playing small (it's the opposite) — How to survive something going badly without it meaning anything about you — The two answers you have to every important question — and why you only ever say one out loud — What's really sitting underneath "I don't know" (in ten years of coaching, it's almost always one of four things) — Take yourself less seriously. Take your life more seriously. If something stirred while you were listening — a whisper of what you actually want, and the reason you've been telling yourself you can't go after it yet — let's talk about it. I open a limited number of free 30-minute Direction Calls each week. It's not a sales call. It's a working session, just you and me, and you'll leave knowing what's actually been stopping you and the one next step to take. Book yours: kategladdin.com/coaching
