Join Chip as he unpacks this powerful tool from God's Word.Introduction: Anger is a secondary emotionIt is easier to be angry than to face the deeper, more sensitive issues of anger.Anger is not the problem. Anger is the red warning light on the dashboard – something under the hood is amiss.We cover stuff inside that God wants to heal, forgive, and restore.Three root issues behind anger:1.

INSECURITY = Real or perceived attacks on my worthTool: Ask yourself, “Why am I feeling threatened?”Summary: The first step in overcoming the destructive power of anger is the COURAGE to look below the surface.Anger is the light on the dashboard; something's wrong under the hood.Anger is our way of protecting ourselves from painful, hard-to-deal-with hurts, frustrations, and insecurities.Anger has many faces and despite its power for good, it destroys, unless we learn to…-Acknowledge it-Back-track to the 1st emotion-Consider the real cause-Determine to rightly respondBroadcast ResourceOvercoming Emotions that Destroy ResourcesMessage NotesAdditional Resource MentionsOvercoming Emotions that Destroy Small Group OfferConnect888-333-6003WebsiteChip Ingram AppInstagramFacebookTwitterPartner With UsDonate Online888-333-6003

“When courage defies cartels, politics panics.”

“Welcome, welcome our wonderful audience!” Dr. Peter Breggin opened The Breggin Hour this week, talking about the effects of his stroke and about our efforts to seek rehabilitation, offering the best chance of optimizing recovery from brain damage. The indomitable Karen Kingston, who has been exposing the dangers of the mRNA vaccines for over five years, joined us. Peter spent a portion of the hour further detailing his experience of receiving treatment at the AVIV clinic, which offers a very specialized program of Hyperbaric Oxygen Treatment (HBOT). Peter made a comment at some point in the program, stating we must “muster great courage equal to our fear…” That phrase sums up for me my husband's attitude since his stroke. He is forging ahead, determined to embrace with both arms the work required to heal. During the third segment, we lost audio with Karen Kingston, so Peter and I finished up discussing artificial intelligence, and Karen's point that AI has been introduced just at a time when the human population is suffering from unprecedented amounts of neurological damage, from the mRNA vaccines as well as from other sources. She pointed out that the creators of the AI programs being used were doing the thinking—the cognitive work—for the individuals using it, which means humans are doing less independent thinking and creating increasing dependency upon outside sources. The neuropsychiatric damage done by mRNA vaccines is being clearly identified. Peter was a coauthor, along with other noted experts, of a recently published scientific paper: “Association Between COVID-19 Vaccination and Neuropsychiatric Conditions,” published in the International Journal of Innovative Research in Medical Science. The paper details over 58 profound neurological adverse effects resulting from mRNA vaccines. Dr. James Thorp spearheaded this research as lead author. The show was a mix of the deeply personal and an examination of some of the threats to humanity's future, with some sweet moments between Peter and Ginger.

Send us a textIn Episode 228,  host Andrea Atherton welcomes Martine Cohn for a conversation that speaks directly to the hearts of those who learned early in life to dim their brilliance to feel safe, loved, or accepted. Together, they explore the tender and often unspoken ways childhood messages shape our adult identities, messages that teach us to stay small, quiet our intuition, or silence our dreams so we don't disrupt the very systems meant to care for us. This dialogue invites listeners to gently become aware of those inherited patterns and consider what becomes possible when we permit ourselves to shine without apology.Martine opens her heart and shares the story of the car accident that forever altered the direction of her life. Once committed to a structured path in law, she found herself awakened—body, mind, and spirit—to a deeper purpose that had been whispering beneath the surface for years. The accident became both a rupture and a rebirth, pulling her away from a life defined by expectations and guiding her toward the profound work of helping others rediscover their true essence. Her journey is a testament to the way trauma can become initiation, illuminating parts of ourselves we were taught to hide.Listeners will feel invited into a space of reflection, courage, and soulful possibility as Andrea and Martine explore how reclaiming one's light is both an act of personal healing and a gift to the world. This episode speaks to anyone standing at the threshold of their own becoming, ready to step out of the shadows of old narratives and into a life shaped by authenticity, purpose, and heart-led freedom.Martine CohenLinkedin: martinecohennmlInstagram: martinecohen_Website: www.martinecohen.com30-minute Consultation with Andrea https://www.andreaatherton.com/booking-calendarAndrea Atherton Websitehttps://www.andreaatherton.com/Love Anarchy Websitehttps://www.andreaatherton.com/podcasthttps://loveanarchypodcast.buzzsprout.comLove Anarchy Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/loveanarchypodcast/Andrea Atherton Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/andreaatherton-17/

Claire de Mézerville López welcomes Amanda Carrasco to the Restorative Works! Podcast.  Amanda is a family survivor of homicide and sexual assault who has turned profound personal tragedy into a mission for healing and accountability. She uses her story to illuminate how truth, empathy, and connection can break cycles of harm and bring repair to individuals and communities alike.  Amanda shares how her search for justice led her beyond the limitations of the legal system. She describes sitting face-to-face with those who caused her harm, not for retribution, but for understanding and potential healing. Amanda's insights challenge conventional ideas about punishment and forgiveness. She explains why facing those responsible for harm can be more difficult, and more transformative, than serving time behind bars. Her reflections on empathy, guilt versus shame, and the possibility of human transformation remind us that accountability is not weakness — it's the foundation of real justice.  Amanda is a successful global business owner, dynamic speaker, consultant, and leader who values community and justice, and is the author of Becoming the Brave One: My Journey to Justice. She brings an opportunity to break the cycle of harm and restore our sense of belonging. Restorative justice is the core of her practice, and she is a certified facilitator through the Restorative Justice Council. She holds four master's degrees from multiple nations, two of them in law. She is a powerful advocate, survivor, and storyteller who believes in the power of truth, healing, and transformation.  Tune in to hear how restorative justice places victims and communities at the center of the process, asking not only what law was broken but who was harmed and how do we make it right.

Historian Ben Baumann reflects on how America's past moments of courage can illuminate a path through today's turmoil. This episode examines rising polarization, declining civic education, and the expanding influence of artificial intelligence on public trust and our sense of reality, asking what history can teach us about confronting fear, resisting simple narratives, and choosing a future grounded in clarity, responsibility, and hope.

I really enjoy seeing these posts from Mark Hickie (@MPHickie) every day where he always offers some form of encouragement.  “A message for today … A reminder: growth takes time, patience & courage — especially in moments no one sees. Every small step you take now is building a future you'll be proud of. Keep going even when it's hard. One day, the future you will be so grateful you didn't give up.”  This is something that I see connecting with so many people in today's world, including myself. Little things, small steps in our everyday choices can make a huge difference - even if at the time we are taking those small steps, we may not see it.  The quote he posts that goes with his thoughts above, helped me to see that I am not alone and that I need to share this message for today. I also was reminded from a former student and player of mine that posted a very similar post about going through tough times and sharing that we are not alone along with the little steps she keeps taking in living her best life.

Send us a textFive kings join forces to attack Gibeon, and Joshua rushes to help after praying for God's guidance. God promises to be with Israel. Joshua leads a nighttime march for a surprise attack, and God sends a storm with giant hailstones that scatter the enemy. When Joshua sees the battle will last past sunset, he prays a bold prayer. God makes the sun stand still over Gibeon and the moon pause so Israel can finish the fight. It becomes a day unlike any other because God listened to a leader who trusted Him. Kids will learn to pray first, act with courage, and remember that God keeps His promises.Talk about it:Why did the five kings attack Gibeon, and how did Joshua respond?What did God do to help Israel during the battle?Why did Joshua ask God to make the sun stand still?What is one brave prayer you can pray when you need God's help?Visit our website: kathyskidsstorytime.orgWe'd love to hear from you.To reach us quickly, click the “Send us a text” link at the top of the episode description.Or write to us by mail:Kathy's Kids StorytimePO Box 44270Charlotte, NC 28215-0043

For something that we do every single day, and something that has the power to change every aspect of our life, we sure don't focus on, train, or develop it. And, that thing is conversation. Nothing great ever happened in your life without, first, a conversation – no promotions, no jobs, no clients, no dates, nothing. My guest today, Payam Pakmanesh (known as "The Convo Guy") is here to explain why and, more importantly, how we can build and develop our ability to communicate more effectively. We cover the proper principles of communication, Adlerian Psychology and how it helps you focus on what you can control, the "Zoom Flow" model for deeper connection, how to make yourself more approachable, and becoming aware of how others perceive you.

In this episode, Sissy and David sit down with two beloved Enneagram Sixes: longtime Daystar founder and leader Melissa Trevathan and Daystar counselor Allye Gray. They explore how differently Sixes can look—phobic and counterphobic—and how both expressions are driven by the same core issues of fear, loyalty, and a deep desire for safety and goodness. Allye shares candidly about being a “phobic” Six: an inner world full of what-ifs and how her anxiety can be palpable in parenting. She talks about learning to trust her own instincts, tolerate discomfort, and surround herself with people who stretch her beyond worry into courage and play. Melissa reflects on decades as a “counterphobic” Six, including childhood stories of pushing through fear, starting Daystar when counseling wasn't common, and discovering that fear doesn't have to control her life or leadership. Together they offer thoughtful encouragement for parents who are Sixes—and those raising Six kids—naming how anxiety can be misunderstood, how important it is to name dread and seek truth, and how community, Scripture, and play can help Sixes move from living out of fear to parenting more from love, trust, and joy. . . . . . .  Sign up to receive the⁠ bi-⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠monthly newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ to keep up to date with where David and Sissy are speaking, where they are taco'ing, PLUS conversation starters for you and your family to share!

Operation Independence 3-Month Rental at Basecamp: $800/month, Event Rental Launch Main Topic: Fearless Living – The Two Sides of "Go For It" We are talking about two forms of courage today: Professional Courage (to launch and critique) and Personal Courage (to be vulnerable and stand up). 1. The Courage to Launch and Critique: The Farm-to-Table AAR The Farm-to-Table Dinner was a huge "Go For It" moment. The real courage is in the fearless honesty of the After Action Review (AAR): Is this financially viable? $155 - 13/hour The Diagnostic Tool: The Homestead Revenue Stack We put the Dinner through our Homestead Revenue Stack to analyze where it sits and what it needs to succeed. The Dinner sits primarily in the Service Layer (Dinner/Class). AAR Findings & Action Plan Logistics Check: Reality vs. plan mismatch. Example: "Sunset on paper vs. Sunset in the holler (30 min BUBBLE)." Venue Needs: The oven/stove at BC needs an upgrade. Experience Flow: Need better arrival/mingling flow. Financial Fixes: We need to Price up, increase numbers at the dinner,  and rely on Upsells. Opportunity: There is an opportunity for a premium cherry add-on for the dinner service. Action: Get the chef on the wild edible walk (to enhance the product layer). Action: If connected to a Farm-to-Table meal delivery service, that would be amazing. 2. The Courage to Stand Up and Be Vulnerable: Local Politics Sometimes "Go For It" means stepping outside your established comfort zone for a cause greater than your business. The Event: Giving public testimony in front of county officials. The Experience: I got nervous! My voice sounded emotional instead of my usual assertive self. The Takeaway: The vulnerability made the testimony more powerful. Being involved in important local matters is one of the few ways we can truly make a difference for our communities, food freedom, and farmers. Bringing it Home: Your Challenge to Go For It Courage is action, not the absence of fear. Don't wait until you're "ready." 1. Fearlessly Audit a Project: Go For It and audit a side hustle or homestead project using a framework like the Revenue Stack. Be honest about where you need to price up, fix it, or drop it. 2. Go For the Hard Conversation: Go For It and speak up about a local issue or personal matter you know you should address. Your passion is more powerful than silence. 3. Take the First Small Step: What is the one small, specific step you can take today to move toward a big goal? Final Thought Sometimes, you just need to go for it.   Make it a great week.   Song:   GUYS!

Who are you when the world only sees one version of you? Do you have to close one chapter to begin another? What if change isn’t a loss, but an evolution? How do you carry every version of yourself into the present? In this heartfelt and revealing episode of A Really Good Cry, Radhi sits down with entrepreneur, TV host, and multi-hyphenate creative Rochelle Humes for a raw conversation about identity, motherhood, and what it really means to live a fulfilling life. Rochelle opens up about her journey from pop stardom to businesswoman, sharing how she’s navigated change, protected her peace, and stayed grounded while raising three kids in the spotlight. Together, they dive into the tension between public perception and private truth, the struggle of being misunderstood, and the courage it takes to pivot when life pulls you in a new direction. In this episode, you’ll learn: Why success often shifts from financial stability to inner peace. The challenges of balancing ambition with motherhood. How to embrace new chapters without “grieving” old versions of yourself. The role of curiosity in keeping life exciting — and never feeling lost. Why self-care isn’t selfish, but essential to showing up for others. How to deal with being misunderstood — in public and in private. The lessons Rochelle carries from her working-class roots into her parenting. Why true wealth is built on love, friendship, and health. This episode is a powerful reminder that life is not about fitting into one role or version of yourself — it’s about honoring your many layers, choosing peace over perfection, and finding beauty in every chapter.
