Does making friends get harder as you get older? How the hell do I make friends? This episode is a rerun, and it's STILL very accurate. According to the American Perspective Survey, May 2021, many people are not satisfied with the size of their friendship group. About half of Americans (51 percent) report they are very satisfied or completely satisfied with the number of friends they have. 30 percent say they are only somewhat satisfied, and 17 percent say they are not too or not at all satisfied with the number of friends they have. If you fall in that range of little to no satisfaction in friendships, here's what you need to know about creating a bond. So, how long does it take to make a new friend? - 50 hours before you consider them a casual friend - 90 hours before becoming real friends - 200hours- before becoming close friends source: 'Journal of Social and Personal Relationships' As the New York Times reported in 2012, there are “three conditions that sociologists since the 1950s have considered crucial to making close friends: proximity; repeated, unplanned interactions; and a setting that encourages people to let their guard down and confide in each other.” Cultivating emotionally intimate relationships, in other words, takes more work than just compliments. In this episode, I sit down with my friends Krista and Tabia, and we talk about our friendships, the ups, downs, and the work it takes to make them work. A special thank you to Kamil Lewis, LMF,T, and Danielle Bayard-Jacskon, Bumble Friendship Expert, for lending their expertise on forming friendships.

What if manifestation isn't about doing more—but about becoming more aligned with who you truly are? In this episode of The Manifested Podcast, Kathleen Cameron pulls back the curtain on manifestation, revealing how she transformed from a skeptic into a thriving coach helping others unlock prosperity and empowerment. She shares powerful lessons from her own journey, showing how tapping into the truth of who we are can create lasting abundance. By challenging limiting beliefs, embracing imagination, and shifting identity, Kathleen guides you through the mindset and energetic shifts required to manifest a life that feels deeply aligned and satisfying. If you're ready to break free from old patterns and finally align with the life you've been imagining, this episode will show you how to start. Tips in this episode: Aligning with one's true beliefs paves the way for a fulfilling life; discomfort indicates a disconnection from truth. Consider the world of imagination as the real and manifested world; live in fidelity to this belief to see it materialize in 3D reality. Cultivating the feeling of already having what you desire is crucial. Whether spending or saving, maintaining a mindset of abundance attracts wealth. Rapid transformation is possible by adopting the identity of the successful person you aspire to be. Action and belief must align for true embodiment. To enhance wealth and personal growth, believe in the significance of your work, recognize your unique talents, and affirm your irreplaceability.

“Be with awareness. Let thought and emotion come and go. Don't fight or follow. That's how you find freedom.” What if true freedom isn't about controlling your mind, but remembering the awareness that's always been there? In today's episode of Soul Talk, I sit down with beloved Tibetan meditation master and best-selling author Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche for a soul-stirring conversation on inner peace, joy, and transformation, even in the midst of life's greatest storms. Born into a lineage of Tibetan masters, Mingyur Rinpoche has spent decades teaching the power of awareness and compassion. But it was during a near-death experience, alone, sick, and penniless on the streets of India, that he had a profound realization: beyond fear, beyond suffering, is a pure, unshakable presence we all carry inside. Together, we explore the real meaning of enlightenment, how to deal with fear, desire, and difficult emotions, and why your thoughts are not who you are. Rinpoche shares simple yet radical practices to help you access peace in everyday life, from letting go of the past to navigating addiction, conflict, and uncertainty. This episode is an invitation to return to your true nature. To live from the “inner sky” that remains untouched by life's turbulence. And to remember that even in the darkest moments, you are never truly lost. Tune in and learn how to access lasting inner peace, transform emotional patterns, and reconnect with the unshakable awareness within you.

What's the first step to changing ourselves when we feel justified in our pain? Are all desires bad, or can some be useful? How can we move beyond the fear of death? What does it really mean to be enlightened? How do we love people who hurt others? Is there such a thing as destiny, and how much control do we have? In This Episode You Will Learn: A powerful way to anchor yourself in peace, no matter what chaos surrounds you. How to connect with your true self through short, daily moments of awareness. The surprising truth about thoughts and emotions, and why they aren't who you are. A mindful method for transforming addictive urges and unhealthy habits. Why enlightenment isn't magical powers, but recognizing what's already within you. A radical perspective on loving difficult people and seeing their basic goodness. How to reshape your destiny by what you choose in the present moment.

In this episode, I'm joined by longtime friend and fellow philosopher Joshua Bertolotti—writer, father, and host of Dying Every Day. We dive into what it really means to know yourself, why emotional presence matters more than emotional distance, and how even rest can unearth hidden tension.Joshua opens up about decompressing after years in the military, the subtle art of relaxing with intention, and how practicing Stoicism in isolation differs from practicing it socially. We also explore the paradoxes of Stoic behavior: when detachment appears as apathy, when teaching Stoicism isn't the Stoic thing to do, and why empathy might be the ultimate expression of wisdom.Want to hear more about Joshua's backstory and his philosophy of success?

The shift from management to leadershipTom Venning is a business trainer, facilitator and coach specializing in B2B Sales, Leadership, and Change. For him, the rise in conversations about leadership and purpose-driven leadership isn't just a trend, but a response to a deeper need of reason and security. But what is leadership, really? Tom Venning defines it simply: “Getting people to do what you want them to do – because they want to do it.” Importantly, this has nothing to do with job titles. Leadership, in his view, isn't about hierarchy but about influence. Resistance, engagement and navigating unpredictabilityChange, of course, often brings resistance. But Tom Venning sees resistance not as a problem, but as a signal: “When people say no, it means they're engaging. They're drawing a boundary, saying, ‘This matters to me'. That's far better than a fake Yes.” He encourages leaders to approach resistance with openness. People resist change, he argues, not just because they don't understand it – but because the current state feels more real and tangible than a vision of the future. One of the simplest tools to change that? Questions. The most powerful thing leaders can do is ask simple, high-quality questions. Tom Venning's own journey is full of unexpected twists – quite literally. Years ago, he started building a sailing boat. It took two decades to finish. “In the end, it became a gift from my younger self. I set off down the Danube and learned to navigate not just water, but unpredictability,” he shared. His lessons: We don't always need a detailed plan. What we need is a clear sense of why we're doing something, and the resilience to adapt along the way.Cultivating curiosity and courageIf there's one competency Tom believes leaders must strengthen, it's curiosity. “It's the gateway to deeper understanding, creativity, and even resilience,” he said. Resilience no longer means returning to the old normal. It's about staying grounded – even excited– in a world that constantly shifts beneath our feet. For him, good leadership is about respect. It's about listening, observing, and helping others grow so that together, we can create something bigger than any of us could alone.“Curiosity is the gateway to deeper understanding, creativity, and even resilience.” - Tom VenningAt Greiner, where transformation is both a challenge and a necessity, these insights couldn't be more relevant. Our company has existed for over 155 years – and we aim to be here successfully for another 155 years. Curious to hear more? Listen to the full episode now!

What do you really want—and how do you even begin to ask for it? In this episode of laidOPEN, I'm joined by somatic sex therapist Susan Morgan Taylor, a healer and teacher who guides people through the often-overlooked terrain of embodied desire. With over 25 years in somatic healing, Susan brings a grounded, intuitive approach to what she calls the Pleasure Keys Process—a set of practices designed to help individuals and couples reconnect with their sensuality, emotional truth, and authentic connection. We dive into how early wounding, stress, and disembodiment can short-circuit intimacy—and what it really takes to come back into alignment with your body and your partner. Susan shares how her background in massage therapy and intuitive healing shaped her path, and offers practical, heartfelt wisdom on navigating low libido, sacred sexuality, and the art of noticing, naming, and negotiating in relationships.

KEY TAKEAWAYS Discovering places and practices that align with your innate spiritual or emotional connection to the natural world can be a source of solace, inspiration, belonging and divine connection. Healing from trauma is a slow, non-linear journey that requires immense patience and resilience, celebrating every small win and recognising that setbacks are a normal part of progress. Tough experiences help us shed what's not essential, encouraging us to go off old ambitions, material things, and the need for approval to find the joy in a simpler, more authentic life. Cultivating deep introspection and actively listening to your soul or inner voice will steer you toward your true path.

Sermons from Old South Church in Boston
John brings us another sermon from the book of 1 Corinthians. This message comes from chapter 8 where the apostle Paul is addressing the issue of eating meat that has been sacrificed to idols. But, in truth, Paul is speaking more to us about how we live out the freedom we have in Christ without doing harm to others in their vulnerable faith.
Dr. Annie Friedrich joined TMC for a virtual seminar on Friday, October 11th, 2024. Dr. Friedrich is an Assistant Professor of Bioethics and Medical Humanities in the Institute for Health & Equity at the Medical College of Wisconsin. She received her PhD in Health Care Ethics from Saint Louis University with a focus on clinical ethics, pediatric ethics, and empirical research methods. She is a certified clinical ethics consultant (HEC-C) and is the co-chair of the ethics committee at Children's Wisconsin, in addition to serving on other affiliated ethics committees. She is also an ethics educator and teaches bioethics to medical students, graduate students, and other health professionals. This seminar, titled "Flourishing in the Cracks: Cultivating Moral Resilience in the Midst of Moral Distress," explores moral complexity, confusion, uncertainty, and distress as inevitable features of the healthcare system. Leaving this distress unacknowledged and unresolved can lead to frustration, lack of meaning in work, and burnout. In this presentation, Dr. Friedrich examines the moral and spiritual dimensions of wellbeing and burnout, with a particular focus on factors contributing to moral distress, and will discuss how we can build flourishing, morally resilient communities for both patients and practitioners.
In Week 3 of our series, we explore what it means to live with integrity—choosing courage over comfort and practicing our values in real life.

Do you feel like you’re running on empty—striving, pushing, juggling it all—and still feeling stuck? In this heartfelt Christian devotional on Matthew 11:28-30, Hannah Benson invites us to pause, breathe, and fall into the arms of Jesus. Through a personal moment of burnout and breakthrough, she reminds us that true rest isn't found in finishing the to-do list, but in trusting God’s timing and leaning into His presence. If you're craving soul-deep peace, this is your gentle invitation to come as you are—and find the rest your soul longs for. What You’ll Learn (Highlights): What it means to truly rest in Jesus, not just physically—but spiritually and emotionally Why doing things “for God” can never replace simply being with God How trusting God’s plan brings freedom from burnout, anxiety, and overachievement Practical encouragement for letting go of control and leaning into His embrace A reminder that your value isn’t in your productivity—it’s in being His beloved child

New Churches Q&A Podcast with Daniel Im, Ed Stetzer, and Todd Adkins
Host Jeff Medders is joined by Barnabas Piper in this special episode of the New Churches podcast for a discussion on what it means to build and sustain a gospel culture in your church. The post Barnabas Piper on Cultivating Gospel Culture appeared first on New Churches.
This episode of The Kriya Yoga Podcast is an excerpt from a talk given by Kriya Yoga Teacher Ryan Kurczak during the 2025 Kriya Yoga Online Solstice Retreat. The Discussion includes: Supportive Techniques from Chapter I: Sutras I.33–I.39 Patanjali offers auxiliary methods to stabilize the mind in Sutras I.33–I.39, forming a meditative ladder: I.33 – Cultivating attitudes of friendliness (toward the happy), compassion (toward the suffering), joy (toward the virtuous), and equanimity (toward the non-virtuous). I.34 – Focusing on the exhalation and natural pause of breath. I.35 – Meditating on subtle sensory experiences (such as inner energy or warmth). I.36 – Contemplating a state free from sorrow and full of inner light. I.37 – Meditating on the consciousness of one who is spiritually free. I.38 – Contemplating dream and deep sleep states. I.39 – Meditating on any object suitable to one's disposition. These are not arbitrary suggestions, but a progressive structure. For example, I.33 helps remove emotional and psychological obstacles; I.34–I.35 deepen bodily and energetic awareness; I.36–I.37 open the door to spiritual radiance and guru consciousness; I.38–I.39 reflect the ultimate flexibility and maturity of the practitioner. The Goal of Samadhi and Spiritual Evolution The culmination of sustained meditative practice is Samadhi, described not as an escape from the world but as union with reality. The deeper forms of samadhi signify the dissolution of ego and personal identity, allowing pure consciousness to shine through. As described in Sutra IV.33–IV.34, transformation is a transmutation of form, as the field of consciousness evolves from gross (human) to subtle (divine). This spiritual evolution requires the practitioner to surrender personal likes, dislikes, and egoic narratives—attaining Vairagya (detachment) and Abhyasa (consistent practice), referenced in Sutra I.12. -

Hello, hello, hello everybody! We are back in the podcast studio, and Mason Taylor, founder of SuperFeast, is resuming his role as host. Joining him is Tahnee, co-host of the of the SuperFeast podcast, who will now make occasional appearances as a guest, especially focusing on women's health and cultivation practices. Mason and Tahnee dive into the fascinating stage of SuperFeast's existence, discussing how the business navigates commercial demands while upholding its foundational "source essence" – the ontological storytelling that defines its purpose: "to dramatically reduce disease and degeneration, creating super humans who may enter into the realm of elderhood." They explore the "birth pain" of growing a business and draw parallels between birthing a business and birthing a child, highlighting the unique "male opportunity" in creating something tangible that lives forever. The conversation delves into the core tenets of Daoism, particularly the concept of "from the Dao comes the one, then the two (yin yang), then the three (Jing, Qi, Shen), and from the three you get everything (the 10,000 things)." They emphasize the importance of not getting "trapped in the world of 10,000 things" – the endless details, protocols, and symptoms – and instead focusing on cultivating the "three treasures" (Jing, Qi, and Shen) for a well-rounded and meaningful life, aiming to "slide into the grave light" rather than deteriorating. Mason expresses his desire to re-engage with the "enjoyment of the 10,000" while always linking it back to the foundational three treasures. They discuss the importance of cleansing the "heart mind" and cultivating an inner antenna to navigate life's initiations and make authentic choices. The goal is to move beyond external validation and dogma, fostering a deeply personal cultivation practice that prepares one for elderhood and a "good death." The episode concludes with a look ahead at future topics, including interviews with practitioners and discussions about specific herbs, all framed within the context of the three treasures and the ultimate mystery of the Dao. Tahnee also shares about her "Birth Magic Course" and the upcoming "Daoist Energetics" course, inviting listeners to connect with them and stay tuned for regular episodes. It's a rich conversation about ancient wisdom applied to modern life, business, and personal well-being.

Have you ever felt frustrated because your coaching business isn't where you want it to be yet? In this episode, I'm sharing a story about the wildflower field behind my house that will transform how you approach growth. Cultivating a field is just like building a business: it's messy, it takes time, and it doesn't always look pretty. But every step, even the 'ugly' ones, are part of the process. If you're stuck focusing on the end result, this episode will challenge you to shift your mindset. I'm diving into why it's crucial to embrace the messy middle and enjoy each stage of your business growth. I'll also show you why appreciating each step, and not just the final picture, will actually speed up your success and make the journey more fulfilling.
