In this powerful episode of The Why Intervention Podcast, host Christopher Doyle sits down with Aidan Morgan, who shares his harrowing journey from childhood experimentation to full-blown addiction and ultimately to recovery. Guest's Info Aidan Morgan is a remarkable example of transformation and resilience. After battling addiction from age 12, Aidan has now maintained sobriety for six years, completely rebuilding his life in the process. A native New Yorker with deep roots in his community, Aidan's journey from addiction to recovery showcases the power of human connection and the possibility of change even in the darkest circumstances. Now 28, Aidan has transformed from someone who couldn't be relied upon to the family member everyone calls first when they need help. His story provides both hope and practical insights for families struggling with a loved one's addiction. With honesty, humility, and occasional humor, Aidan shares his personal experiences not as an expert but as someone who's lived through the struggle and found his way to the other side. His story stands as powerful evidence that recovery is possible and that intervention can save lives. Highlights Why the "wait until they hit bottom" approach is DANGEROUS and potentially DEADLY in today's world where "you could hit a casket before you hit bottom" The SHOCKING truth about what happened when Aidan nearly died in a car accident while high - and why it STILL wasn't enough to make him stop The DEVASTATING "9-HOUR DECISION" phenomenon that explains why addicts can't stop using even when they desperately want to and have days of abstinence Why your addicted loved one already has ENOUGH PAIN to change - they just need the right connection and opportunity NOW How Aidan's father's surprising SILENCE became the catalyst that finally broke through when nothing else would The COUNTERINTUITIVE reason why taking away a teen's activities as punishment for substance use actually ACCELERATES their addiction The BIZARRE encounter with "Franklin" that kept Aidan from walking out of detox over a veggie burger Why an addict telling you "I promise I'll stop" and ACTUALLY MEANING IT still isn't enough to overcome addiction The EMOTIONAL MOMENT when a father's three simple words - "It's over" - finally gave his son permission to surrender The PROFOUND TRUTH that most recovered addicts didn't seek help on their own - and what this means for your intervention strategy How Aidan went from being "the last person anyone would call" to handle a problem to becoming the family's MOST RELIABLE member If you're struggling with a loved one's addiction, this episode provides both the inspiration and practical framework for taking action before it's too late.

Every time I promised myself I'd quit bingeing, my first instinct was to trade carrot cake for carrot sticks and run so hard I'd practically slide off the treadmill. But no matter how dedicated I was to so-called “clean eating” and marathon gym sessions, the binges always came back. Here's what I missed back then: There are key things you can do—things that have nothing to do with counting carbs or surviving bootcamp—things that can markedly shift bingeing. Counterintuitive as this is, focusing away from restricting and working out often yields a desire to eat and move in ways that serve us—body, mind, and soul. In all, I'll been talking about 10 important pieces to understand, and this episode focuses on understanding how your bingeing makes sense. YES, you read that right! Listen in to hear why it makes sense and why it's so powerful to understand that it does. Get full show notes and more information here: https://www.holdingthespace.co/80. If you're ready to invest in one-on-one support to help heal binge eating, go to https://holdingthespace.as.me/free30 and get on my calendar for a complementary consult today. I pinky-swear—NO icky salesy vibes, just compassion and understanding.
Want to unlock a life of true blessing? What if I told you the key might surprise you? In today's episode, I'm getting real about something that's transformed my life: biblical generosity. I know, talking about money can feel awkward, but I truly believe this message is vital. I want to share with you a conversation I had with my twin sister, Jasmine, that changed my perspective on giving. I'll also dive into what scripture says about generosity and how it's not just about finances, but about a heart surrendered to God. I've seen firsthand how obedience in this area leads to incredible blessings, and I want to share that with you. In this episode, I'm exploring: What the Bible really says about tithing (10% giving) Understanding offerings and generosity that go beyond the tithe The concept of sowing seeds with faith and expectation Sacrificial giving—what it means to give "above and beyond" Why the heart behind your giving matters most How I've experienced blessings through obedience and generosity in my own life I hope this episode encourages you to live generously and to seek those real, deep blessings that come from God. Remember, you're loved, you're valued, and you're doing amazing! Now go make some tacos and be a blessing to someone today! Have questions or want to share a photo of your tacos, tag me @biancajuarezofficial. Love you, B RESOURCES/LINKS A Test To Change Your Life // How To Be Rich // Tithing // Bianca Juarez https://youtu.be/dcDBukciGH0?si=KVB1X2HnIfZI3koe In the Name of Love Ministries https://www.biancaolthoff.com/about/ Takeaways Living a blessed life involves obeying God. Generosity is a key principle in living a blessed life. Tithing is considered the baseline of generosity. Understanding the concept of sowing and reaping is crucial. Generosity should come from a willing heart. Above and beyond giving demonstrates deep commitment. It's important to give with the right intentions. Scripture encourages us to give generously. The act of giving reflects our relationship with God. Living generously can lead to spiritual and material blessings. ⋇ Convoy of Hope - Empowering Women and Girls Together Donate here https://convoyofhope.org/bianca/ ⋇ Bianca's new book Grit Don't Quit: Developing Resilience And Faith When Giving Up Isn't An Option. https://amzn.to/3MO74OC ⋇ The Grit Don't Quit Bible Study is now available. https://www.biancaolthoff.com/gdq ⋇ So grateful to our sponsors!

Heart of a Man is a men's community based our Carmel, IN. We exist to deeply connect men with a brotherhood equally committed to learning, growing, walking through life together and deepening in faith. Our mission is to build men into character-driven, committed disciples of Jesus, equipped to forge healthy, life-giving relationships at home, at work, and in their communities. Today's lesson is from our PhD Theologian in Residence, Todd Wilson, walking us through Exodus 13-15 where we see the Lord's plan unfold or the Hebrews. The manner in which He leads us feels as if it makes no logical sense, yet Todd uses this as an opportunity to share with us the counterintuitive ways in which the Lord leads us, often leaving us completely dumbfounded around why He chose to take that specific route.

Most freelancers think success comes from being great at their craft. It doesn't. I've seen average freelancers with solid marketing dominate their industry while insanely talented ones struggle to get clients. Being the best doesn't matter if no one knows you exist. I've also watched freelancers waste hours crafting detailed proposals, only to get ghosted. Proposals don't close deals - real conversations do. If you're hiding behind a PDF, you're losing before you even start. That “stable” 9-to-5 job you think is safer than freelancing? That's one paycheck, one boss, one decision away from being gone. A well-run freelance business with multiple income sources is actually more secure than a day job - if you do it right. Most freelancers are playing the game all wrong. That's why I put together this episode, breaking down the 13 counterintuitive truths about freelancing will change how you work. For full show notes, visit https://6figurecreative.com/352

What in the world is intrinsically good — good in itself even if it has no other effects? Over the millennia, people have offered many answers: joy, justice, equality, accomplishment, loving god, wisdom, and plenty more.The question is a classic that makes for great dorm-room philosophy discussion. But it's hardly just of academic interest. The issue of what (if anything) is intrinsically valuable bears on every action we take, whether we're looking to improve our own lives, or to help others. The wrong answer might lead us to the wrong project and render our efforts to improve the world entirely ineffective.Today's guest, Sharon Hewitt Rawlette — philosopher and author of The Feeling of Value: Moral Realism Grounded in Phenomenal Consciousness — wants to resuscitate an answer to this question that is as old as philosophy itself.Rebroadcast: this episode was originally released in September 2022.Links to learn more, highlights, and full transcript.That idea, in a nutshell, is that there is only one thing of true intrinsic value: positive feelings and sensations. And similarly, there is only one thing that is intrinsically of negative value: suffering, pain, and other unpleasant sensations.Lots of other things are valuable too: friendship, fairness, loyalty, integrity, wealth, patience, houses, and so on. But they are only instrumentally valuable — that is to say, they're valuable as means to the end of ensuring that all conscious beings experience more pleasure and other positive sensations, and less suffering.As Sharon notes, from Athens in 400 BC to Britain in 1850, the idea that only subjective experiences can be good or bad in themselves — a position known as ‘philosophical hedonism' — has been one of the most enduringly popular ideas in ethics.And few will be taken aback by the notion that, all else equal, more pleasure is good and less suffering is bad. But can they really be the only intrinsically valuable things?Over the 20th century, philosophical hedonism became increasingly controversial in the face of some seemingly very counterintuitive implications. For this reason the famous philosopher of mind Thomas Nagel called The Feeling of Value “a radical and important philosophical contribution.”So what convinces Sharon that philosophical hedonism deserves another go? In today's interview with host Rob Wiblin, Sharon explains the case for a theory of value grounded in subjective experiences, and why she believes these counterarguments are misguided. A philosophical hedonist shouldn't get in an experience machine, nor override an individual's autonomy, except in situations so different from the classic thought experiments that it no longer seems strange they would do so.Chapters:Cold open (00:00:00)Rob's intro (00:00:41)The interview begins (00:04:27)Metaethics (00:05:58)Anti-realism (00:12:21)Sharon's theory of moral realism (00:17:59)The history of hedonism (00:24:53)Intrinsic value vs instrumental value (00:30:31)Egoistic hedonism (00:38:12)Single axis of value (00:44:01)Key objections to Sharon's brand of hedonism (00:58:00)The experience machine (01:07:50)Robot spouses (01:24:11)Most common misunderstanding of Sharon's view (01:28:52)How might a hedonist actually live (01:39:28)The organ transplant case (01:55:16)Counterintuitive implications of hedonistic utilitarianism (02:05:22)How could we discover moral facts?

Love vs Grind: Counterintuitive Path to Success Host: Scott Smith Episode Description: Scott explores wanting success "bad enough" through personal experiences and an enlightening interview with Ann Beiler, founder of Auntie Anne's Pretzels. He discusses the reality of "the grind" and how passion transforms challenging work into meaningful pursuits. Key Takeaways: - True desire for success requires embracing difficulty rather than seeking easy paths - Sometimes, not knowing the challenges ahead can be beneficial for starting ambitious ventures - Following what you love naturally leads to success, even if the path isn't what you expected - Changing direction when passion doesn't align is better than forcing an unwanted path Featured Story: Ann Beiler, founder of Auntie Anne's Pretzels, reveals she wouldn't have started if she knew the challenges ahead. Starting with a simple love for making people happy through food, she built an empire of 1,400 locations. The story concludes with a surprising twist - Ann prefers baking chocolate chip cookies over her famous pretzels. Scott's Three-Step Approach: 1. Verify you want your goal badly enough; change direction if needed 2. Focus on doing what you love rather than dwelling on difficulties 3. Accept that hard work is inevitable but doesn't feel like grinding when aligned with passion Memorable Quotes: "Thank God I didn't know what it was going to take because I would have never even started." - Ann Beiler "Your purpose for today is to get out there and go find your purpose." "Sometimes the things you love, they just sneak up on you."
