Quotables from the episode: Today, we're going to be talking about conquering the three enemies of mental health. We’re attacked by the enemy on a daily basis. The key is to recognize the attack and fight back with the right weapons. I grew up in an Islamic household. And so just growing up, my understanding of the character of God was distorted. And so I grew up believing in a different God, but I thought he was the right God. I came to know the Lord is through a dream about Jesus. Growing up, I battled with my own depression. I battled with anxiety, but I didn't know that they were clinical depression and anxiety. It's like I was high functioning. I thought anxiety was the norm. It was normal for me to think something bad is about to happen. I had the symptoms of the clinical diagnosis. And it was about, I'd say, early 20s or so, when my depression just got worse and worse, to the point of suicidal ideations because I felt like I was, I had no hope. I decided to blaze my own trail. And I mean, I drove into astrology. I drove into chakras, reiki, everything you can think of. I tried to figure out my own purpose in life. And none of that brought me the peace that I remembered feeling when I had a dream about Jesus. What's incredible is God is so kind and so patient with us. You know, he didn't stop pursuing me. He didn't throw in the towel on me. He just kept pursuing and pursuing and he knew I was going to hit a dead end at some point and I did. I decided to give my life to Jesus and after I gave my life to Jesus and I moved to South Carolina and I just started my life from scratch. The Lord called me to the field of counseling. I had never thought I was going to become a counselor, but I felt the Holy Spirit for the first time, and I just felt this call toward the field. So I went back to school, finished my clinicals, and then I started treating brothers and sisters in the faith from both a clinical and a biblical perspective. I could not believe just how many patients I had who were self -professing believers, who struggled with the same ideas and the same issues and negative thoughts and oppressions that I struggled with as a Muslim. I noticed that even believers are not equipped to fight against spiritual forces of darkness. They're not. How did your family take it when you became a believer in Jesus Christ? – They didn't take it well. I had experienced persecution because of that. And the reason I moved to South Carolina is for safety reasons. I needed to start my life from scratch, but of course they found me and you know the Bible says count the cost Jesus said count the cost and for me the count the cost was my mother my father brother sisters my family was everything to me and I was raised with I pledged my allegiance to my family and so my allegiance would have been divided. When Jesus says that basically you have to put him before your mom and dad, it's not that you need to hate them, it's that you need to love him more. How does scripture reveal the roles of the devil, the flesh and the world as adversaries to mental health? What I have seen my practice is the devil will do anything possible to split our faith in Jesus. So even if it's 90% in Jesus and 10% in the object of our faith, that's splitting your faith in Jesus. We were made for relationships. When we spend time with the Lord, when we spend time with God, there is a chemical that gets released in our body and that chemical is serotonin that chemical combats depression just naturally okay now what happens is because we have the wrong perspective of God. We don't spend time with Him. We think the Bible is outdated. A lot of people think that. They have actually done a research out of Biola University where they claim that God is, they found that most people believe that God is mean, harsh, or distant. Those are the top three adjectives they use to describe God. And because of all of that, we run to self -medicate. And so, we self -medicate by watching too much Netflix, too much TV, right? We don't pay attention. For overcoming enemy number one, the devil, you have to renounce your dealings with the kingdom of darkness. There's no way around that. Now, number one, if you're not a believer, you have to give your life to Jesus. And I feel like I have to say this because I have had patients who came to see me and said, "Can you do it for me because you're a believer? Can we bypass Jesus?" No, we can't bypass Jesus. That's just not how it works. And the reason they say that is because they believe Jesus is a dictator and they have the wrong perspective about him. And so, they don't understand that he's a God who pursued them to the point of dying on the cross for them to satisfy the righteous requirement of sin so that they can have a relationship with Him. And so, number one, you have to have a relationship with Jesus. Psalm 139 that says, "Search me, O God, and know my heart. Test me and know my anxious thoughts. Point out anything in me that's offensive to you and lead me to the path of everlasting life." And just ask him to show you what in your life is taken priority or is not of him. And he will show you. It's a dangerous prayer, but he will show you. Don't ever think that God is condemning you because in Jesus there's no condemnation and God is not a man that he should lie. He doesn't lie to you. There's no condemnation. He may convict you if you're acting in a way that is incongruent to who you are in Jesus. But conviction says, "Hey, you should not have done that." Condemnation says, "Hey, you're a loser, you're this, you're that, and you'll never come back from it." There's a huge difference between the two. One, it redeems you. Because conviction is for the purpose of restoring our relationship with God. But condemnation serves to separate us. You know, when we feel guilty or condemned, we're embarrassed. And so, we separate ourselves from others and from God. So, there's a huge distinction between the two. The other area that the enemy gets a foothold besides lying to us is that very subtle did “God really say…? If he really loved you he would have X, Y, and Z.” It's that little word really that gets us to doubt what the Bible says about God. That's the oldest lie. It's the oldest lie. It dates back to Genesis and so what he does is he induces doubt. That's the cycle of enemy number one. He induces doubt and when he says “did God really tell you?” or “Does God really love you?” “Is God really looking out for you?” And he'll come to you, especially in times when you're desperate, then doubt leads to temptation and when you act on it and you don't receive God's forgiveness or you don't repent and receive God's forgiveness, it leads to shame and shame is going to lead to hiding. Unfortunately, we wear these masks and I call them defense mechanisms. Defense mechanisms are basically masks that we wear in order to keep God from, I mean, he's trying to heal us, but we try to push him away and keep him from healing the wounds that he's trying to heal. And these defense mechanisms that we employ, and I list all of them in the book, but most common ones are denial, like we deny that there's an issue with us, or there's repression, meaning we don't deny the problem, but we deny its effects on us. We act like, “Oh, no, everything is fine. Everything is okay.” Meanwhile, God wants us to bear our hearts to him. He wants us to surrender our wounds to him. Another practical way is ask the Lord to prioritize your life. It's a dangerous prayer and it's a dangerous request because he will prune who needs to be pruned. Yes, he will. Anything that doesn't bear fruit, he’s going cut off. So, it is a risky prayer, but what a fruitful prayer. Yes, because we were made for his purpose, and we were made to bear fruit. He made us for a specific purpose. And so many times, we just hit one dead end after another, after another, and we live a frustrated life, but really we can live a fruitful life if we just surrender to him and ask him, "Lord, I can't do it by myself. I need you to please just prioritize my life according to your will." And he will, because he wants to be part of every detail of our lives. For the longest time, I had a habit of just waking up and I just felt like I would wake up with anxiety. And believe it or not, so many people deal with this. They wake up and it's like, as soon as their feet hit the floor, like their heart is racing. And what I have found, something that I have found that has helped me so much. And if you want to start this tomorrow morning, and it has a clinical and a biblical basis is tomorrow morning, when you wake up, because it has helped me, instead of first thing is checking your phone, checking your email, because that's what I was doing, is first thing you do, start thanking the Lord God, spend 10 minutes, even if you have to wake up 10 minutes earlier, spend time thanking God for 10 minutes for everything He has done for you. You can find something, even if you are in the midst of despair, you can find something to thank God for. When we start thanking God, there's a chemical in our brain that gets released. It's called serotonin and it combats depression. That chemical floods your body, first thing in the morning, and so it decreases anxiety and it raises, it almost puts a shelter around your brain for any depressive thoughts. That's from a clinical perspective. From a biblical perspective, the Word of God says the Lord inhabits the praises of His people. When we're thanking God for everything He's doing for us and thanking and for who he is, God's presence, God is love and his presence comes and inhabits our praises. God is love and perfect love casts out fear. So, the spirit of fear has to flee when God's presence is there. No matter how many mistakes you have made in the past, no matter how bad you had messed up in the past, that God's grace covers you and there's no way that you could have outrun God. God's grace covers you and his mercy is new for you each and every morning and so remember that and remind yourself of that. God is not looking down on you with a magnifying glass. God loves you and he is just in love with you. And it's the enemy who brings those thoughts that accuse you. The war over your mind doesn’t have to be lost.

Sunday morning sermons from Vertical Church St.Paul

Today, we're tackling a silent energy drainer for owners and leaders: guilt in the grind of entrepreneurship. Guilt creeps in from missing family time, sacrificing health for success, or even feeling bad about your wins while others struggle. It drains focus, erodes joy, and stalls growth. We're going to unpack the emotional burdens and share tools to build healthier boundaries.

//Andrew Lundy | 1 Samuel 17:1-58

 This segment focuses on Vikings as conquerors, noting successful raids like the one on Paris, which yielded 7,000 pounds of gold. Around 865 AD, the Great Heathen Army arrived in England, conquering East Anglia, Northumbria, and Mercia. The resulting stalemate with King Alfred led to the establishment of the Danelaw around 878–880 AD, giving Norse people political and legal control over a vast area of England. Norse settlement is evidenced by Old Norse influences in place names within the Danelaw. Barraclough also discusses the eastern expansion of the Vikings—the Rus (rowers), originating from modern Sweden, who moved down the Volga and Dnieper rivers, establishing settlements like Novgorod in 862 AD.

alleujament intens la va envair.En: When she reached the end of the difficult stretch, intense relief washed over her.Ca: "Ho vas fer!En: "You did it!"Ca: ", va exclamar Biel amb entusiasme, xocant-li la mà.En: exclaimed Biel enthusiastically, giving her a high-five.Ca: Júlia somreia, no només pel seu èxit momentani, sinó també per la força de l'amistat.En: Júlia smiled, not just for her momentary success, but also for the strength of friendship.Ca: Amb noves mostres capturades i un nou sentiment de confiança, van continuar el seu camí, immersos en la bellesa i tranquil·litat dels Pirineus, arrossegats per l'aventura i les lliçons apreses.En: With new samples collected and a newfound sense of confidence, they continued their path, immersed in the beauty and tranquility of the Pirineus,

Marisa Romeo never ceases to blow my mind. To be in the top 25 women at the biggest ultra trail running race in the world is unbelievable...she was 22nd by the way. I had to hear her story, and it did not disappoint. Going in with a great mental state and just reveling in the fact that she was even there was the perfect way to approach the start line. She was ready. Hear about her journey through these majestic mountains, battling crazy cold weather, and overcoming some personal lows and other issues. I found it so interesting to hear two different experiences of this same race back to back (Katti and Marisa). Both women are so strong, and I feel blessed to sit back and watch them excel. Thank you, Marisa, for coming back on the podcast. I SO enjoy our 'catch up times'. I certainly hope you can make your way back to UTMB, and I'll continue to be one of your biggest fans. :)Marisa's website: https://www.marisaromeo.comMarisa's coach: Ryne Anderson with CTSThank you for listening!

Bad Bunny, whose real name is Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, has had a monumental week, continuing to make waves both in Puerto Rico and around the globe. Just days ago, he concluded his record-breaking first-ever concert residency in Puerto Rico, titled No Me Quiero Ir de Aquí, which ran from July 11 to September 20 at the José Miguel Agrelot Coliseum in San Juan. Over 31 nights, he transformed “El Choliseo” into a temple of nostalgia and cultural celebration, with every show highlighting music from his highly-praised sixth album, Debí Tirar Más Fotos.Fans saw surprise guest appearances from legendary and rising stars alike, including Gilberto Santa Rosa, Young Miko, Tainy, Farruko, Arcángel, Yandel, Sech, Residente, and Mora. Each night's setlist evolved, weaving in traditional Puerto Rican genres like plena, bomba, and salsa, all fused with his signature modern reggaeton and trap sound. Notably, the final bonus show, “Una Más,” on September 20 was livestreamed worldwide on Amazon Prime Music, Prime Video, and Twitch, making history by tying the concert to the eighth anniversary of Hurricane Maria, adding emotional weight and a message of resilience to already electrified performances.His new album, Debí Tirar Más Fotos, which dropped in January right before Three Kings Day, continues to dominate conversations months later. The record's 17 tracks, including viral sensations like DtMF and TURiSTA, have become generational anthems about nostalgia, the shifting identity of Puerto Rico, and cherishing fleeting moments. The accompanying short film for the album, featuring poignant storytelling by acclaimed Puerto Rican filmmaker Jacobo Morales, deepened listeners' emotional connections. The album cover itself, with its iconic empty monobloc chairs, has sparked interpretation and discussion about lost memories and evolving culture across social media.Tracks like DtMF, now boasting over a billion Spotify streams, fuel a viral TikTok trend in which users share reflective slideshows of loved ones and old haunts with the chorus “I should have taken more photos while I had you” as the soundtrack. According to Nique.net, Debí Tirar Más Fotos is also being studied at Emory and Yale University for its impact on Puerto Rican society and economy, due in part to Bad Bunny's drawing an estimated $200 million in economic activity to the island through his long series of residency and festival shows.This week also saw continued buzz from his surprise holiday single, Pitorro de Coco, a melancholic heartbreak anthem named after the iconic Puerto Rican rum, which was released alongside the album announcement. Bad Bunny's influence outside of music was also on full display as snippets from his cameo in the trailer for the upcoming Adam Sandler film Happy Gilmore 2 circulated widely. Further cementing his status as a global superstar, Billboard and Pollstar reports show his “Most Wanted Tour” is the seventh highest-grossing tour of 2024, pulling in over $210 million.Listeners can expect even more as Bad Bunny has already teased new music to come, with fans speculating about collaborations and directions for his evolving sound. As the year enters its final stretch, the impact, artistry, and cultural significance of Bad Bunny show no sign of slowing.Thank you for tuning in and be sure to come back next week for more.

Send us a textEver feel one mistake away from being “found out”?  You're not alone.  Former NASA propulsion engineer Maureen Zappala shares how imposter syndrome secretly affects high performers and provides practical strategies to overcome self-doubt that holds us back from our full potential.Maureen shares her journey from melting equipment at NASA's jet engine test facility to becoming the first female and youngest manager of its Propulsion Systems Lab. Despite her impressive credentials, she constantly questioned her worth, even believing she was hired only because she was a woman.What makes this episode particularly valuable is Maureen's practical framework for tackling imposter syndrome.  She outlines five powerful strategies that begin with recognizing the symptoms and culminate in connecting with your deeper purpose.  Along the way, she dismantles common misconceptions, explaining why imposter syndrome isn't something you "solve once and for all," but rather a recurring challenge that requires ongoing awareness and vigilance.The conversation explores how imposter syndrome shows up across professions—from healthcare to leadership, creative work to entrepreneurship—revealing both personal struggles and costly organizational consequences, like a supervisor's silence leading to defective products.Whether you're a seasoned executive, an emerging leader, or simply someone striving for excellence in your field, this episode offers both comfort and actionable insights.  Her message is clear: imposter syndrome isn't a one-time fix but an ongoing challenge—and one you can learn to navigate with confidence.  As Maureen says, “Imposter syndrome is not the end of the road.”Guest:  Maureen Zappala, keynote speaker and an incredible authorHost:  Chris Comeaux, President / CEO of TELEIOShttps://www.teleioscn.org/anatomy-of-leadership/conquering-imposter-syndrome-with-maureen-zappalaThe Anatomy of Leadership podcast explores the art and science of leadership through candid, insightful conversations with thought leaders, innovators, and change-makers from a variety of industries.

Greg talks with Lance about his book "Conquering the Hill" which details a major Cincinnati public school football game.

Lance speaks with ESPN's Ben Baby on the mindset of the Bengals in the wake of Joe Burrow's injury, St. Xavier football coach Steve Specht on breaking the St. X career wins record, and author Greg Frey on his novel "Conquering the Hill" which details a major Cincinnati public school football game.

Sin. S-I-N. It's a simple three letter word. But unfortunately, it often serves at the root for everything that is negative in our lives. In what can only be described as a conscious transgression against God's will and our established moral standards, sin finds its way into our well-intentioned lives through lust, lying, hatred, and even jealousy. Here are but a few tangible examples of how sin can permeate our souls without even realizing it: - Hatred toward people who “deserve” it.- Apathy toward God or those around us.- Oversensitivity to what others say or think of you.- Thinking you have more knowledge, are better looking, and more superior than anyone else around you.- Following rules is more important than loving others. Author Karl Clauson believes that sin is literally killing us.  Most would agree that sin doesn't lead to anything productive in our lives. But how can we take hold of God's promises and walk in freedom – not just a temporary fix but as a sustained, lasting victory? In his latest book, “Killing Sin: Conquer the One Thing That is Defeating You”, Clauson outlines behavioral habits that hold us back, an understanding of how we can change, and key strategies for winning the war against sin that are grounded in Scripture. Simply put, sin separates us from God. And the Moody Radio host shows you how to successfully fight temptation and overcome the sin in your life. Clauson joins me to chat about why so many people struggle to overcome bad habits or sin in their life. Listen as he shares the difference between recognizing our sin, owning our sin, and what we can do about it to live more fulfilling lives.

In this episode of The Brainy Business podcast, Melina Palmer revisits the concept of bikeshedding, a phenomenon that leads us to obsess over trivial details while neglecting the more significant issues that drive progress. Originally discussed in episode 99, Melina brings this foundational topic back into focus as we navigate the complexities of decision-making in a rapidly changing environment. Bikeshedding, a term coined by Cyril Northcote Parkinson, highlights our tendency to spend excessive time on inconsequential tasks—like perfecting a logo color—at the expense of critical decisions that can impact our success. Melina explains how this behavior can hinder our productivity and offers practical strategies to overcome it. She discusses the relationship between bikeshedding and Parkinson's Law of Triviality, emphasizing the importance of prioritizing meaningful work over distractions. In this episode: Understand the concept of bike shedding and how it manifests in everyday decision-making. Learn about Parkinson's Law of Triviality and its implications for productivity. Discover practical questions to ask yourself to break free from bikeshedding and focus on what truly matters. Explore the significance of setting clear goals to combat procrastination and maintain momentum. Gain insights into how to balance feedback from others while staying true to your own objectives.

Have you ever felt guilty for taking a break from work? Do you find it challenging to balance your creative pursuits with your professional responsibilities? If so, you're not alone. Many therapists struggle with feelings of guilt or abandon if they take time away from their practice and worry that clients will need them while they're gone or not come back to therapy once the vacation has ended. Edgar Fabián Frías, LMFT, and graduate of the Money Skills for Therapists course, brings their current challenge of allowing themselves permission to rest, trust the systems, and redefine what sustainability looks like in their work and life to the show. Edgar has built financial buffers and created sustainability in their practice, but not yet allowed themselves a real break. Balancing Rest and Business Growth If you are someone who finds it hard to take time off, and you know you need a break but you keep pushing that vacation into the future, here are a few questions Edgar and I work through: What if I lose connections with my clients during my time off? Will I have to start over again after taking a vacation? Will my clients seek support elsewhere if I'm not available for a month? What if my absence affects the progress and goals of my clients? What if taking time off leads to missed opportunities or setbacks in my practice? How can I take time for myself but also serve my clients well? Conquering the Fears Around Taking Time Off (00:00:10) Balancing Creativity with Professional Responsibilities (00:09:33) Therapists' Emphasis on Personal Growth Practices (00:14:06) Creative Breaks: Nurturing Therapist's Business Growth (00:16:28) The Transformative Power of Rest and Exploration (00:17:27) Creative Time Management for Productivity and Balance (00:22:35) Maintaining Financial Security During Extended Absences Elevating Your Therapy Services from a Place of Rest Overcoming the fear of taking time off is a journey that requires self-awareness, resilience, and a willingness to prioritize your well-being. As a therapist, it's essential to find a balance between work responsibilities and creative pursuits, while also ensuring financial stability and taking breaks to recharge. One practical tip is to create a schedule that allows for dedicated time for both work and creative activities. Set boundaries and stick to them, ensuring that you have time for self-care and relaxation. Remember, you deserve time off to rest, relax, and rejuvenate. Taking breaks can actually boost your creativity and productivity in the long run. (00:23:34) "And I honestly as like, you know someone who was so tainted by money and felt so out of control with it. It's been so amazing to be on the other side of it and be like, oh, my gosh, I'm comfortable with money. And I also feel like I have this ability to dream." - Edgar Fabián Frías (00:28:13) "When we never take time away, when we don't show them that we're living expansive lives, they know that on some level, you know, that we are someone who works all the time and isn't actually out exploring and enjoying the world, as we are often supporting our clients to be able to do so." - Linzy Bonham Interested in working with Linzy?

Every man needs a rule of life—a clear, concrete framework that keeps prayer, family, work, and virtue in order. Without it, we risk wasting time, neglecting our duties, and drifting through life. With it, we gain clarity, perseverance, and a spiritual roadmap toward sanctity.In this episode of The Catholic Man Show, we explore:Natural benefits of a rule: better use of time, decisiveness, consistency, and efficiency.Supernatural benefits: transforming daily actions into prayer, combating disorder, and conforming life to God's will.For your neighbor: how your fidelity inspires others, balances prayer and apostolic works, and sanctifies your community.The right balance: flexibility without laxity, firmness without scrupulosity.Concrete considerations: prayer, family life, work, personal discipline, community, and apostolic action.A rule of life isn't about rigidity—it's about freedom: God first, then your soul, your family, and your apostolate.“He who lives by rule, lives unto God.”
