Keir Starmer's Labour government seems to be in big trouble, with opinion polls suggesting the possibility of a dramatic reshaping of British electoral politics in favour of Nigel Farage's Reform UK. The resignation of deputy prime minister Angela Rayner last week has shown yet more Labour weakness for Farage to eagerly exploit. It's all happening against a backdrop of deepening divisions over subjects including immigration, taxation, the economy, Gaza and freedom of speech. London correspondent Mark Paul has been trying to keep up with it all. He talks to Hugh on today's podcast. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Send us a textHave you ever tried to force your own plan—only to hit a wall? In this episode of The More in Your Morning Show, I'm unpacking what it really looks like to let go of control and follow God's strategy instead of our own. You'll be reminded that His ways are higher, His plans are greater, and His timing is perfect—even when it feels uncertain. Whether you're planning a launch, pivoting in business, or praying through your next move, this episode will help you surrender with confidence and take your next step in faith.

How to really worship God

The 79th session of the United Nations General Assembly has adopted a resolution on strengthening cooperation between the United Nations and the Shanghai Cooperation Organization.

In this heartfelt coaching session, Christine supports Elle, who has done years of personal growth work but still struggles with feeling disconnected—especially in intimate relationships. Despite building a chosen family and strong friendships, Elle worries she may never find a romantic partner she feels both safe and attracted to. Past experiences of abuse and neglect have created protective strategies that now interfere with intimacy and connection. Christine helps Elle see that she is further along than she realizes, guiding her to release self-judgment and reframe her experiences. They explore how protective parts, body-based healing, and inviting the inner child into present-day moments can restore connection. If you've ever felt broken, wondered if something was “wrong” with you, or struggled to combine love, safety, and attraction in relationships, this conversation will offer relief, perspective, and hope. Consider / Ask Yourself: Do you feel disconnected from yourself, others, or even spiritually? Did you grow up in an environment where you didn't feel safe or seen? Do you tend to be drawn to emotionally unavailable partners while overlooking those who are healthy and present? Are you approaching personal growth from the mindset of “fixing what's wrong” instead of cultivating compassion and curiosity? Key Insights and A-HAs: Nothing heals in judgment—shifting from “what's wrong with me” to self-compassion is essential. Attraction to unavailable partners is often a protective strategy that keeps deeper intimacy at bay. Our past selves and inner child need to be invited into the safety of the present moment. Healing requires integrating body-based practices, not just intellectual understanding. You are often further along in your healing than you realize. How to Deepen the Work: Practice inviting your inner child into current moments of connection and safety. Approach your healing with curiosity rather than judgment. Explore somatic or body-based trauma work to move stuck emotions and energy. Reframe protective strategies as once-necessary survival tools—and begin to update them with new choices. Remind yourself regularly: There is nothing wrong with you. Upcoming Event: Christine's Women's Retreat is happening October 17–19, 2025. This life-changing experience only happens every other year. Scholarships are now available, and Christine offers a money-back guarantee if you don't experience lasting transformation.

Do you ever feel like people tune out when you're trying to help? You're listening, offering advice, maybe even sharing your own story…but somehow, they shut down?  In this episode, I break down the powerful communication skill of active listening. It's a simple, often overlooked tool that deepens connection and builds trust in your relationships. Whether you're a parent, a partner, or a leader, learning how to listen without fixing can transform how others respond to you. I will walk you through the four essential steps of active listening in relationships, how to recognize the type of conversation you're in (thanks Charles Duhigg!), and why your good intentions might be missing the mark. If you want to improve communication, connect more deeply with your kids, or stop feeling like you're doing all the talking and none of the bonding, this episode is for you. You'll leave with tools you can use today to feel more confident, calm, and connected in the moments that matter most.

Reach Out: Please include your email and I will get back to you. Thanks!Ephesians 4Paul urges believers to live in unity, maturity, and holiness as members of Christ's body. He calls them to walk in humility, gentleness, patience, and love, striving to maintain the unity of the Spirit. There is one body, one Spirit, one hope, one Lord, one faith, one baptism, and one Father who is over all, through all, and in all. Christ has given apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, and teachers to equip the church for ministry and spiritual growth. Followers of Christ must mature in faith, avoiding false teachings and growing into Him, the head of the church. They should cast off their old sinful ways and embrace a new life of righteousness. Paul encourages honesty, kindness, forgiveness, and speaking words that uplift others, reflecting God's love in all our relationships.  Are you walking in a manner worthy of God's calling? The most observable proof is in how we treat one another. We share a common faith and life in Christ, and we must exhibit gentleness, patience, love, and enduring tolerance towards each other. We cannot be in fellowship with God while being at odds with fellow believers. The apostles and prophets of Jesus's time taught about Him to help us refute false doctrine and speak the truth in love, building each other up. While people in the world may have hardened hearts, God's people possess soft, compassionate spirits. We must be honest, charitable, mindful of our words, free of bitterness, and abundantly forgiving, in honor of the mercy of our King. Heavenly Father, implore us to walk in a manner that brings honor to Your name. Help us understand that attitudes and actions among Christians are central to being unique and united in this divided world. Grant us the humility to continue learning about Jesus, so we can refute errors concerning Him, and so that we might know how to encourage and support fellow members of the body of Christ. Soften our hearts. Deepen our compassion and love for one another. We commit to being honest, helpful, and generous among believers and all of humanity, as Jesus is with us. Thought Questions: -       Are you a uniting, patient, peaceable presence among the people of God? How important to God is your Christ-like light among Christians? -       What unique gifts has God given you to use among His people? How are you presently cultivating and exercising those gifts? -       How mindful are you of your words, especially during contentious times? What makes Christians different than the world in their speech?

In this episode, you’ll learn about the powerful role of friendship and connection in promoting physical, emotional, and even cognitive longevity. I sit down with longtime (40 years long!) friends Christy and Ana from the Girl, Can You Talk? podcast to explore their BOND method—Be Open, Offer Invitations, Nurture Consistency, and Deepen Through Vulnerability—a simple, intentional approach to building real relationships that help you live better, feel better, and not feel alone. This show is great if you want to learn more about how connection impacts your health, why friendships can be more than just brunch buddies, and how simple things like sending a voice memo or asking a friend, “have you been outside today?” can literally change someone’s day. You’ll hear relatable, heartwarming (and often hilarious) real-life stories about perimenopause, empty nest syndrome, and navigating one-sided friendships. Christy and Ana share how getting in front of people, even just once a week for coffee, can turn into something meaningful—and how just one close friend can make a life-changing difference. If you want practical tools, some good laughs, and an important reminder about the importance of building and maintaining social connections, this episode is for you! TIMESTAMPS: Sometimes we forget that friendship and connection are very important to our overall health. [01:03] Having a society inundated with the internet has changed the way people relate.

Life is shaped by rhythms that form who we become. Rhythms of Grace is an ongoing series that explores spiritual practices to help us grow in faith and experience God's presence. These disciplines—such as prayer, Sabbath, fasting, and more —aren't about earning God's love, but about living more fully in it. Each message will unpack a practice and provide practical tools to help you put it into action. In a world of hurry and distraction, these rhythms help us slow down and re-center on what matters most. As we follow Jesus, these practices shape us, both individually and collectively as the church, into His image.

Send us a textEpisode #482: Hearing is Good, But Obeying is BetterGod doesn't just want us to hear His voice—He wants us to respond to it. In this powerful kickoff episode of the Faith in Motion series, April Nicole Scipio reminds us that the blessing is in the doing.You'll be challenged to take inventory of where you may have delayed obedience, and inspired to move forward with confidence—knowing that partial obedience is still disobedience, but grace is available to help you course-correct.This episode will stir your faith, nudge you into motion, and equip you to walk in full obedience to what God is calling you to do.In this episode, you'll learn:Why obedience is the key to unlocking God's bestThe danger of hesitation and half-obedienceHow to take bold steps of faith even when it's hardScripture Focus:James 1:22 (NIV) — “Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves.

Have you ever wondered how much deeper your coaching could go if you paused to reflect in a more intentional way? In this episode of The Coaching Crowd, we explore how reflective practice is the often-overlooked skill that truly elevates coaching. While questioning and listening skills usually get the spotlight, it is reflection that helps us to grow as coaches, find closure with clients, and unlock fresh insight. As we spoke, we found ourselves noticing how reflective practice is both a personal and professional discipline. It is not about criticising yourself for what you missed, but instead about compassionately noticing what you learned, how you showed up, and how you can expand your practice. We share a series of reflective questions that you can use for yourself or with your clients, such as: How am I feeling now? How present and attuned was I during that coaching session? What habits was I using, and what new experiments could I try next time? What biases or assumptions might have shaped how I showed up? Together, we explore the difference between reflecting in practice (while in session) and reflecting on practice (afterwards), and how both can help you become more present, more courageous, and more flexible as a coach. We also talk about how reflective practice can happen in different ways, through journaling, walking, recording your thoughts aloud, or even using creative prompts like music and drawing. One of our personal reflections from this conversation was how important it is to approach reflection with kindness. Growth does not come from berating yourself, but from curiosity and compassion. Reflective practice is a muscle, and with practice, it grows stronger. This episode is full of questions and perspectives that will help you deepen your practice, connect with your clients at a deeper level, and continue your journey of lifelong learning.   Timestamps: 00:50 – Why reflective practice matters in coaching 02:12 – Reflecting in practice vs reflecting on practice 03:00 – Using body awareness as a catalyst for reflection 05:21 – Balancing solution-focus with presence 06:47 – The importance of compassion in reflection 08:34 – Exploring habits and courage in coaching 09:52 – The role of client feedback in reflective practice 11:14 – Finding your personal style of reflection 12:36 – Considering bias and self-development 14:25 – Reflection as a muscle to build over time 16:11 – Creative approaches to reflective practice 18:32 – Reflection as an ongoing process rather than quick clarity 19:23 – The role of CPD in deepening reflection 21:19 – Lifelong learning and growth as a coach   Key Lessons Learned: Reflective practice is the foundation for deepening your coaching, beyond questioning and listening skills. Compassion and curiosity are essential, reflection should not become self-criticism. Presence, energy, and body awareness are powerful entry points for reflection. Exploring habits, courage, and biases helps coaches to avoid falling into fixed patterns. Creative methods such as drawing, music, or recording can unlock new layers of reflection. Reflection is not about finding instant answers, but about allowing insight to emerge over time. CPD and lifelong learning naturally deepen reflective practice.   Keywords: reflective practice in coaching, coaching reflection questions, reflective skills for coaches, how to deepen reflective practice, coaching growth, reflective coaching techniques, presence in coaching, self-reflection for coaches, lifelong learning in coaching, reflective practice methods   Links & Resources: Website: igcompany.co.uk

In this deeply supportive session, Christine coaches Erin, who has struggled with self-worth, self-trust, and confidence throughout her life. Recently assessed as neurodivergent, Erin has experienced both relief and grief—relief in finally having clarity, but grief in recognizing how much self-criticism and self-betrayal she carried for years. Christine guides Erin through understanding how childhood modeling, people-pleasing, and bypassing emotions have impacted her confidence. Together, they explore how building self-worth comes not from external validation, but from radical self-acceptance, emotional release, and advocating for one's needs in daily life. If you've ever felt “different,” struggled to trust yourself, or wondered how to move beyond self-criticism into true confidence, this conversation will resonate deeply. Consider / Ask Yourself: Did you grow up feeling “different” or like you didn't fit the mold? Do you often bypass your feelings, telling yourself “it's not a big deal”? Have you learned to be a chameleon, shape-shifting to fit others' needs? Are you quick to explain or excuse others' behavior instead of honoring your own hurt? Key Insights and A-HAs: True confidence comes from radical self-acceptance. Self-betrayal often shows up in small ways—ignoring needs, withholding truth, or people-pleasing. Relief can be a doorway into compassion and deeper healing. Suppressed emotions drain energy; released emotions unlock creativity and confidence. The inner child feels safer—and more confident—when we advocate for ourselves in everyday moments. How to Deepen the Work: Notice moments of self-betrayal in daily life and practice small acts of self-advocacy. Allow yourself to feel emotions fully, without judgment or rushing to fix them. Begin somatic practices that connect you to your body (dance, yoga, movement). Read Expectation Hangover by Christine Hassler, especially the section on emotional release. Redefine confidence as accepting all parts of yourself, not performing perfection. Upcoming Event: Christine's Women's Retreat is happening October 17–19, 2025.

In this powerful coaching session, Christine supports Tessa, a psychic medium navigating the challenges of fully owning her intuitive gifts after leaving a successful engineering career. While her spiritual sensitivity has deepened, she still struggles with confidence, financial consistency, and the fear of stepping fully into her calling. Christine helps Tessa uncover how early life choices for safety and belonging influenced her path, why money is a sacred energetic exchange, and how to embrace confidence without falling into imposter syndrome. This session is especially resonant for anyone who has felt torn between a “practical” career and their true soul path—or who has struggled with feeling “too sensitive” in a world that doesn't always honor intuitive gifts. If you've ever wrestled with worthiness, worried about what others think, or hesitated to fully embody your calling, this episode will encourage you to claim your gifts with reverence, confidence, and joy. Consider / Ask Yourself: Do you minimize your intuitive or spiritual gifts out of fear of judgment? Were you rewarded as a child more for achievement than creativity or sensitivity? Do you toggle between wanting safety (financial or social) and wanting to live your truth? Is your sensitivity something you see as a liability rather than a blessing? Key Insights and A-HAs: True confidence is radical self-acceptance, not arrogance. Sensitivity is not a liability—it's a sacred strength when embraced. Financial abundance can flow through spiritual work when we claim it as valid and worthy. Belonging and validation from old systems (titles, achievements) can hold us back from owning our deeper callings. Spiritual gifts don't have to come with a cost—you don't need to “pay penance” for being gifted. How to Deepen the Work: Reflect on any early decisions you made to “fit in” and how they may still shape your choices. Reframe your sensitivity as spiritual hygiene, not a burden. Write and repeat affirmations claiming your gifts as part of your life's is-ness (e.g., “I make an abundant living through my spiritual gifts”). Notice when imposter syndrome shows up and remind yourself that reverence and humility are different from self-doubt. Normalize taking breaks, grounding, and nervous system care without making it a “big deal.” Upcoming Events: Christine's Women's Retreat is happening October 17–19, 2025. This immersive experience is designed to help you step out of your head, into your body, and reclaim your intuitive power. By the end of the retreat, women report profound clarity, spiritual awakenings, and a deep reconnection to their inner wisdom.

Here, psychologist Dr. Caroline Fleck breaks down validation science that transforms how we connect!Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1198What We Discuss with Dr. Caroline Fleck:Validation goes beyond praise. It's a precise psychological skill set that allows us to communicate mindfulness, understanding, and empathy to make someone feel seen and accepted. To understand the difference, think of praise as applauding the performance, while validation is accepting the performer.Research shows that validation literally allows us to endure greater physical pain, suggesting its resilience-building power to help us cope with life's countless difficulties.Obversely, invalidation shuts down recall and problem-solving abilities by triggering sympathetic nervous system arousal. On the other hand, validation restores higher cognitive functioning needed for reasoning.Validation skills are powerful across contexts — from relationships and parenting to medicine and even interrogations. But keep in mind that authenticity is critical — fake or forced validation doesn't work and can even feel condescending, especially to teens.Validation is a skill you can practice and improve. Nurture a mindset of genuine curiosity by asking yourself "What's this person's point?" Start with small steps like attentive listening, nodding, and reflecting words authentically to build stronger trust and connection.And much more...And if you're still game to support us, please leave a review here — even one sentence helps!

In this tender and eye-opening session, Christine coaches Lucia through the heartbreak and confusion of a breakup she now regrets. While the relationship was loving and emotionally safe, differences in values, lifestyle, and follow-through led to a mutual decision to part ways. Now, Lucia is wrestling with second-guessing herself and holding on to hope—while also remembering what wasn't working. This conversation goes far beyond one relationship story. It's about learning to trust your choices, release regret, and grieve while keeping the love. Christine helps Lucia explore self-forgiveness, avoid over-responsibility, and understand the deeper imprints from her first love and early life experiences. If you've ever questioned a decision, longed for a “redo,” or struggled to move forward after letting go, this episode will help you find clarity, peace, and compassion for yourself. Consider / Ask Yourself: Do you tend to replay past choices, wishing you could go back and change them? Are you holding on to the good memories while forgetting what wasn't aligned? Have you confused the love you felt with the actual fit of the relationship? Is regret keeping you stuck in the past instead of allowing you to move forward? Key Insights and A-HAs: Regret often uses present-day knowledge to beat yourself up for past decisions. Love is not always enough—shared values and aligned lifestyles matter. You can keep the love while grieving the relationship itself. Over-responsibility can fuel self-blame and block healing. Forgiveness and grief work create the space for true clarity. How to Deepen the Work: Write down what was working and what wasn't in your past relationship or situation. Practice self-forgiveness by acknowledging you made the best choice with the information you had at the time. Allow yourself to fully grieve without rushing to replace or “fix” the loss. Identify any limiting beliefs you're holding about your worthiness for future healthy love. Upcoming Events: Join Christine for her Free Masterclass for Overachievers and Perfectionists on August 18th—especially for women who struggle with regret, self-criticism, and letting go.

Eric is joined by Justin White of K&D Landscaping at a recent technology conference. White, a self-made CEO who grew his family's landscaping business from $1 million to $20 million in ten years, shares insights on leveraging technology, particularly AI, for business growth and efficiency. He emphasizes that while AI can't perform physical tasks like mowing, it revolutionizes administrative work such as estimating, scheduling, and communication, ultimately freeing up time for a more "human" approach with clients. The conversation also highlights the importance of personal well-being, strategic vision, and the value of coaching for entrepreneurs aiming to scale their businesses and create wealth for their teams. White concludes by underscoring the lucrative opportunities within the landscaping industry, encouraging contractors to embrace self-care, set ambitious goals, and act with speed and intention. Key Takeaways: • Prioritize self-care and well-being as a crucial component for success, which can help reduce stress and improve your overall mindset. • Set a bold and ambitious long-term vision for your company, as this vision will guide your major decisions and help you build confidence. • Deliberately allocate dedicated time to explore and implement new technologies, like AI, to enhance back-end operations and improve efficiency. • Build a robust leadership team capable of making independent decisions across all business areas, enabling growth beyond current operational limitations. • Consider hiring a business coach to provide guidance, foster a belief in your capabilities, and maintain accountability towards your goals.

You can't truly love yourself if you're lying to yourself.And you certainly can't find peace in a version of you that's not real.Because when you try to love a version of yourself that isn't true, it feels empty. It's like people-pleasing: if you sacrifice authenticity for approval, then who are they really approving of? Not the real you. And the same goes for self-approval. If we dress up a lie and call it self-love, we're building a facade that will inevitably crumble.In this episode, you will learn…Why women, in particular, tend to lie to themselves (even more than they lie to others)What all major religions and spiritual teachings say about truth-telling3 simple but profound ways to use honesty as a daily practice of loving yourselfWe'll also explore ideas from authors like bell hooks, George Saunders, Don Miguel Ruiz, and Tara Brach, whose teachings remind us that honesty is the foundation of love.If you've ever felt like self-love doesn't “work” for you, or that you're doing everything but still feel disconnected, this episode might reveal why and inspire you to honestly love yourself.Remember: telling the truth isn't about sharing every secret, it's about staying rooted in what's real. And what's real—no matter how messy—is worthy of love.Deepen your self-love journey with Mary's books:The Gift of Self-Love, an interactive workbook that will help you build confidence, recognize your worth, and learn to finally love yourself.100 Days of Self-Love, a guided journal with 100 prompts to help you calm self-criticism and learn to love who you are.Follow Mary on IG: @maryscupofteaa and @maryspodcastIf you're enjoying this self-love podcast, share it with the women in your life.

What if “happily ever after” starts and ends with just you? In this bold and expansive episode, Shan dives into The Eartha Kitt Effect—a cultural and emotional awakening inspired by the legendary performer Eartha Kitt, whose unapologetic views on love, compromise, and individuality continue to resonate decades later. This “effect” refers to the growing movement of people, especially women, who are choosing the single life on purpose, not by default. Joining Shan is Dr. Bella DePaulo, renowned social psychologist and author of Single at Heart, to unpack why some of the most fulfilled people are not in romantic relationships—and never want to be. Together, they explore:

In today's real-time coaching session, Christine works with Catherine, who is navigating a pivotal life decision about whether to continue a long-distance relationship that is heading toward a significant next step—or to step away. As someone who struggles with indecision and fears making the “wrong” choice, Catherine is looking for clarity, confidence, and security in her next steps. Through their conversation, Christine helps her uncover a powerful truth: clarity often comes after we take action, not before. What unfolds is a healing dialogue around people-pleasing, fear of mistakes, and the patterns that keep us disconnected from our intuition. Rather than rushing toward a binary decision, Catherine finds a third path—one rooted in authentic expression, boundaries, and self-trust.   Consider/Ask Yourself: Do you often fear making the wrong decision, and delay choosing altogether? Have you historically prioritized others' needs over your own in relationships? Are you waiting for a sign instead of trusting your own intuition? What might shift if you gave yourself full permission to speak your truth?   Key Insights & A-HAs: Indecisiveness isn't always resistance—it can be sacred space while we wait for the most aligned choice to emerge. The “right” decision isn't always black or white. Sometimes clarity reveals itself in a third, unexpected option. Unspoken needs can't be met. Self-expression is essential to healthy relationships. Even if a decision “doesn't work out,” it doesn't mean it was wrong—it was your classroom for growth.   How to Deepen the Work: Journal on a time when your “mistake” led to unexpected growth. Practice speaking a boundary in a safe relationship—start small. Ask: What is my body telling me when I think about each possible choice? Instead of asking “What should I do?”, ask “What would feel most like self-honoring?”   Free Masterclass: Fulfilled & Free (For Women) Are you a high-achieving woman who's done “everything right”—but still feels like something's missing? Join Christine for a free live masterclass on August 18th at 4 PM PT to learn the formula for deep fulfillment that doesn't rely on over-achieving or perfectionism.

What do you do when you're staring at an impossible situation? In the middle of famine and heartbreak, Elijah is confronted with what looks like an impossible situation — a widow's son has died. Her hope is gone, and her faith is hanging by a thread. In this week's message from 1 Kings 17, Pastor Joby shows us that even in the darkest moments, God invites us to bring what little faith we have and trust Him to do what only He can do. Elijah's story reminds us that our hope isn't in our circumstances — it's in a God who hears, a God who moves, and a God who still brings life to dead places.
