Podcasts about Courage

“As long as you live,” Seneca said, “keep learning how to live.” As long as we're alive, we must keep learning and wrestling with these ideas.

The Shofar is a call to face your own desire. Its explosive call on Rosh Hashanah is an invitation to be awoken to the depths within us, to witness the divine desire with which G-d created the world, and to have the courage to face the gaps between where we are and what we truly want.Source: Likkutei Torah Tiku Bachodesh, Parshas Netzavim, pg. 106SPONSOR:Sponsored in honor of Malka Mayasha bat Esther, for a year of blessings and joy.

In the conclusion of this two-part series, Stasi and Lisa Beck explore how to discover our irreplaceable roles in God's story. They reflect on how God often reveals our calling in everyday moments, from the themes in our lives to the desires of our hearts. With honesty, humor, and a powerful prayer of blessing, they inspire us to cast off comparison, stand in our belovedness, and embrace the unique way God has designed us. Friends, your life matters, and your desire to play an important and significant role is God-given.

On this week's episode of The 1 Girl Revolution Podcast, we welcome Robin Steinberg — attorney, advocate, and founder of The Bronx Defenders, Still She Rises, and The Bail Project. Robin has spent her entire career fighting for justice and reimagining what public defense and true equity could look like in America. Her unwavering belief is simple but revolutionary: every person deserves dignity, humanity, and a real defense — no matter who they are or what resources they have. In 1997, Robin founded The Bronx Defenders in New York City, pioneering a holistic model of public defense that addresses not only courtroom battles, but also the housing, health, family, and immigration issues that so often shape people's cases. She went on to create Still She Rises in Oklahoma — the first public defender office in the country dedicated exclusively to representing women. Oklahoma has one of the highest incarceration rates for women, and it became the backdrop for Robin's bold vision: to provide women with holistic legal representation, recognizing that defending women means defending their families, children, and communities. Did you know that women are the fastest-growing population in jail and prison? Robin's insights into women and incarceration are both powerful and eye-opening. And in 2017, Robin launched The Bail Project, a national nonprofit that combats mass incarceration at its entry point: the cash bail system. The Bail Project provides free bail assistance and pretrial support to thousands of people each year who would otherwise remain jailed simply because they cannot afford bail — ensuring that freedom isn't determined by the size of someone's bank account. In this episode, you'll hear: ✨ Robin's journey to becoming a passionate advocate for justice; ✨ The story behind The Bronx Defenders and the holistic defense model she pioneered; ✨ Why she launched Still She Rises and how it's transforming the lives of women in Oklahoma and beyond; ✨ The devastating impact of cash bail and how The Bail Project is working to end it; ✨ Robin's insights into women and incarceration — and why they are the fastest-growing population in jail and prison; ✨ And so much more!

Send us a textWhat happens when life throws you not just a curveball, but an ongoing series of challenges with no end in sight? Katie Schnack, author of "Everything Is Not Fine," opens up about her journey through her son Shepherd's diagnosis with a rare medical condition called VACTERL.Rather than offering trite solutions, Katie shares how she's learned to hold both joy and sorrow simultaneously. She describes beautiful moments of divine reassurance, like when her three-year-old daughter spontaneously sang "Jesus Loves Me" exactly when Katie had been praying for a sign of God's love. These "everyday epiphanies" became anchors in the storm.The discussion challenges conventional notions of what it means to be "inspirational" during hardship. As Katie's friend wisely told her, "Courage doesn't mean you're not scared; it means you're scared and do it anyway." This reframing allows space for honest emotional processing while still moving forward in faith.For anyone navigating ongoing challenges—whether medical issues, grief, relationship difficulties, or other circumstances without clear resolution—this conversation offers both companionship and practical wisdom. Katie shares how community support, intentional grief processing, and "closing the stress cycle" through physical activity have helped her develop resilience.Visit Katie's website: KATIEOrder Katie's book: Everything Is (Not) FineListen to Janell's Meditative Exercise: The Waiting RoomSupport the showBegin Your Heartlifter's Journey: Visit and subscribe to Heartlift Central on Substack.

She reminds us that while the spotlight amplifies risk, it also amplifies IMPACT. This episode is a permission slip and a mandate: Do not hide. This is not the time for silence.

To continue the conversation, Haley and I dive into the very real challenges women face when it comes to embracing all that God has for them. We talk about the fears of not fully understanding His plan, the pressure to do everything, and how often people-pleasing can leave us anxious and disconnected from our own growth.Haley shares the value of slowing down for self-reflection—even in simple ways, like listening to faith-based podcasts—and reminds us that small steps can open big doors for spiritual renewal. Together, we explore self-acceptance, the courage to be yourself even when others may not approve, and the grace that comes with patience on your unique journey.We also discuss the book The Courage to Be Disliked, which offers a powerful reminder to live humbly yet unapologetically true to who you are. And through it all, we affirm that every feeling is valid—what matters most is how you choose to move forward with it.This is part two of our conversation with Haley for the series, “Spicy Christian Women - Becoming All that and a Bag of Chips.”Thanks for being part of the UY conversation.The Unabashed You website has a page for each guest of photos, quotes and a blog with embedded audio at unabashedyou.com.

A deeply personal and timely conversation with Governor John Kasich on bridging divides, living your values, and why forgiveness is essential in today's fractured political landscape. We were so pleased to be joined by Governor John Kasich who opens up about the role of faith, forgiveness, and civic duty in his life and career. The conversation spans everything from the tragic loss of his parents to a drunk driver, his evolving views on religion and politics, to the lessons shared in his newest book Heaven Help Us. Governor Kasich's winsome curiosity sparked a profound dialogue about personal transformation, ideological differences, and how to build bridges in divided times.

Susan Inouye is a transformational executive coach and best‑selling author who helps leaders build cultures of engagement and belonging. We explore her Sawubona approach, which means “I see you,” and the five leader shifts that move teams from control to connection, conformity to seeing and accepting, expectations to intentions, authority to authenticity, and bottom‑line myopia to belonging. We learn to ask people what it takes to engage them, spot their innate gifts, and align work to strengths. We also see how receiving feedback without judgment opens trust across generations. Susan's stories show how leaders who get present, praise the gift behind the action, and create meaningful work see retention rise and results follow. We leave with practical ways to create workplaces where we feel seen, heard, and part of something bigger. Highlights 1. Lead with connection - Learn to be present, listen without judgment, and make people feel seen so trust and ideas flow. 2. Spot innate gifts - Identify what energizes each person and align roles and projects to those natural strengths. 3. Shift expectations to intentions - Trade rigid “shoulds” for clear intentions that encourage learning, ownership, and creativity. 4. Model authentic leadership - Share real experience, invite two‑way dialogue, and let credibility come from wisdom, not title. 5. Build belonging on purpose - Tie work to shared meaning and values so we stay engaged, resilient, and motivated.

Podcast Episode 200 - Portrait of Courage

If your voice isn't free, you aren't free. In this episode, we'll explore what it really means to sing with truth — especially in a world that punishes honesty and teaches us to stay quiet. We're told that silence keeps us safe. But the truth? Holding your voice back doesn't protect you — it imprisons you. Whether you're a longtime singer or someone who's gone quiet for years, this episode is a call to courage. To reclaim your voice. To sing what's true. To choose freedom over fear.  We'll talk about: -Why your voice catches when you try to say or sing something real -The emotional + spiritual blocks behind creative silence -Why truth is the medicine — and your voice is the instrument -The illusion of safety in silence — and the cost of staying quiet -Why singing is a daily act of liberation -A gentle vocal prompt + journaling practice to open your voice again You don't have to be fearless. You just have to be willing. This is your invitation to courageously use your voice to set yourself free.

“Being disillusioned is a very hard place to be in… but I realized my master's job was to set me free. In the end, that heartbreak gave me the freedom to discover my own truth.” — Deborah Rudell In this episode of Uncorking a Story, I sit down with Deborah Rudell, author of Grit and Grace, to explore her extraordinary life. From growing up on the road in a converted school bus, to living on a controversial commune in Oregon, to rebuilding a schooner once owned by Crosby, Stills & Nash and sailing it across the Pacific, Deborah's story is one of resilience, reinvention, and reflection. Along the way, she discovered not only the truth about her spiritual journey, but also the healing power of writing memoir. Key Takeaways: The power of disillusionment. Deborah explains how betrayal by a spiritual leader forced her to find her own truth and independence. Healing through introspection. Long hours sanding and varnishing a boat paralleled the process of stripping down her own life story to its bones. From boat project to memoir. What began as a picture book about restoring a schooner evolved into a deeply personal memoir about faith, freedom, and forgiveness. Writing as transformation. Feedback from her writing group helped Deborah uncover the real story she needed to tell. Facing fear and finding freedom. Sailing across the Pacific with her family and a novice crew taught her resilience and trust in the unknown. Lessons from publishing.

Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Support our mission to teach every verse of the Bible. Read more here: Project23 Our text today is Judges 4:6-10: She sent and summoned Barak the son of Abinoam from Kedesh-naphtali and said to him, “Has not the Lord, the God of Israel, commanded you, ‘Go, gather your men at Mount Tabor, taking 10,000 from the people of Naphtali and the people of Zebulun. And I will draw out Sisera, the general of Jabin's army, to meet you by the river Kishon with his chariots and his troops, and I will give him into your hand'?” Barak said to her, “If you will go with me, I will go, but if you will not go with me, I will not go.” And she said, “I will surely go with you. Nevertheless, the road on which you are going will not lead to your glory, for the Lord will sell Sisera into the hand of a woman.” Then Deborah arose and went with Barak to Kedesh. And Barak called out Zebulun and Naphtali to Kedesh, and 10,000 men went up at his heels, and Deborah went up with him. — Judges 4:6-10 What blessings slip through our fingers when we hesitate instead of acting in faith? God had already spoken: “Go, gather your men… I will give him into your hand.” The outcome was certain. Victory was promised. But Barak hesitated. Instead of trusting God's word, he leaned on Deborah: “If you go with me, I will go.” He wanted her presence more than God's promise. Deborah agreed—but warned him: the glory of victory wouldn't go to him. God would hand Sisera over to a woman instead. Barak went to battle, but the lesson was clear: hesitation comes at a cost. God still wins—but when we pause at the edge of obedience, we may miss the full blessing of leading boldly. This is where too many believers get stuck. God calls. The promise is sure. But instead of stepping out in full faith, we hesitate. We stall. We wait for more signs, more reassurance, more backup. Barak still fought, but his hesitation meant he lost the honor of leading with decisive courage. Deborah had to fill the gap. Here's the challenge: don't wait for someone else to carry the weight God put on your shoulders. God's victory doesn't depend on you—but your faithfulness does. Step up without hesitation. Don't miss the blessing because you lingered when God said, "Go." ASK THIS: Where am I hesitating when God has already spoken clearly? What fears keep me from taking the step God is calling me to take? Who might be carrying weight right now because I've delayed obedience? How can I step forward today in faith instead of waiting for more certainty? DO THIS: Pinpoint one area where you've been hesitating. Stop stalling—take one clear step of obedience today. PRAY THIS: Lord, forgive me for hesitating when you've already spoken. Give me the courage to step forward in faith, trusting your promise more than my fear. Amen. PLAY THIS: "Made For More."

Daily Boost Podcast Show Notes When Life Gets in the Way: Finding Courage After Tragedy September 15, 2025 | Episode 5171 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description This Monday hits different, doesn't it? Scott opens up about processing last week's tragic events and how life has a way of throwing curveballs when we least expect them. He takes you through his personal journey of unpacking tragedy, from losing his first wife to witnessing how people respond when fear meets faith. You'll discover why struggle might actually be a good sign and how normal life continues even in the midst of chaos. Scott shares his three life rules that have replaced almost everything else and why he believes good always wins in the end. Featured Story Scott gets real about pulling down a podcast he'd already recorded five times because something told him at 11:30 PM that he wasn't ready yet. He shares his weekend experience shopping with his wife for a wedding dress while thousands of people went about their normal lives, finding traffic jams and sweet treats at the mall even in the midst of national tragedy. The story weaves through his realization that what we're witnessing is really about identity and worldview - people fighting for who they are based on their life experiences. It's a raw, honest look at how we process the unthinkable. Important Points Your struggle to figure out what's right probably means you're going to get there - it's the people who aren't struggling that should worry us. What's happening right now is a values issue where millions of people are fighting for their identity based on their belief systems and life experiences. The only thing standing between evil and good in this world is you and me, and that door tragedy opens might be exactly what we've been looking for. Memorable Quotes "Life begins when you move, but then life freaking gets in the way." "If you're struggling, you know what's right. You probably just haven't accepted it yet." "Without courage, every other virtue fails. Courage is what turns conviction into action and sacrifice into legacy." Scott's Three-Step Approach Always try to do the right thing, and if you mess up, say you're sorry and try again until you get it right. Be nice and cool to people, especially when you see them struggling, because maybe your job is to help them through the process. Don't be an asshole - when logic breaks down and emotion takes over, resist the urge to get loud and slam doors. Connect With Me Search for The Daily Boost on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

Most of the biggest voices on the right, in both the media and elected office, have been blaming “them” for last week's killing. “They” did it. These same voices are declaring a “war on the left.” This is divisive, dangerous stuff. If it's civil war they want, then quit hiding behind “they.” Just say it. Hosted on Acast.

In week two of our bible study, Living Right Side Up in an Upside Down World, Nicole walks through Daniel 2—Nebuchadnezzar’s disturbing dream, the failure of Babylon’s “wise men,” and Daniel’s prayerful response.

Learn how to respond to a crisis like Daniel, place your trust in what lasts, and live for the unshakable kingdom.

How Christ is the cornerstone of a different kind of kingdom that will never be shaken.

Earthly kingdoms are temporary—don’t anchor your identity to what won’t last. Crisis is a cue for prayer—Daniel gathers friends and seeks God’s wisdom. Live for the unshakable kingdom—align loyalties, time, and decisions with Jesus’ reign. This Week's Reflection Questions Where am I subtly placing trust in temporary kingdoms (success, security, institutions, relationships)? When a crisis hits—big or small—do I panic or pray?

Monday September 15, 2025XIV After Pentecost ---

I found a great connection with some understanding and uplifting items that I needed today, and it all came from Mark Hickie (@MPHickie) where he shared his introduction to post today: “A message for today … Life isn't always fair — but that doesn't mean you have to give up. Refuse to be ruled by negativity. Stay strong, stay positive & keep moving forward. You are capable of achieving far more than you believe.” This got my attention right away as I saw that I was letting life beat me up a bit lately. The post that went with his intro, solidified why I needed this today. Check this episode out a few times as the more I spoke, the more things I started connected to it and people that provided some of those great connections!!  I found some awesome reflections here with this one and I hope it helps you reflect and make some deep-rooted connections to what you need to do in your life.

Our diets and exercise regimens must improve. America has become fat and out of shape. It's reversible, but we must be willing.
