Podcasts about detours

Can you imagine having over 40 embryos  transferred? OR flying to do daily blood testing and ultrasounds? The woman you're about to hear is one of the most passionate fertility advocates I know. Experiencing 7 transfers & multiple IUI's nearly 3 1/2 decades ago, while aLSP  enduring treatment both in the U.S. and in the Philippines, Sue Johnston's story is remarkable. You'll learn about the impact RESOLVE has  had in her life, “RESOLVE was my lifeline.” Many of us can relate to how much fertility treatments can suck the life out of us. I hope you're inspired by Sue's story. May we continue to navigate life's detours while holding onto grief and joy at the same time.Learn more about Sue below! Connect with her at the infertilityadvocate.com.Sue's Bio: My name is Sue Johnston and I met my husband, a U.S. Naval Officer in 1984. We were married on May 3,1986. My husband Bob and I struggled for nearly a decade to have our one and only child, who was born on May 1, 1994. The Navy didn't make infertility treatment any easier either. We moved 14 times in the first 12 years of our marriage and Bob was frequently deployed overseas... often for 6 months at a time. We even had a 2-1/2-year tour in the Philippines in the midst of our battle with infertility.Although I didn't choose to have infertility, I eventually turned my pain into purpose after learning how to embrace my resolution. I am passionate about supporting RESOLVE: The National Infertility Association because the people I met through this organization were my lifeline when I was in the thick of my infertility battle. Since then, I have worn almost every “volunteer hat” for RESOLVE. I have been actively involved in RESOLVE's FederalAdvocacy Day State for 10 years in many leadership roles. I am the co-Founder of the Detroit, MI Walk of Hope and have helped extend it to a statewide event. I lead local and national RESOLVE support groups both virtually and in person. In January of 2021, I started my Pregnancy and Parenting After Infertility Support Group (PAIGES). In 2022, I created a monthly PAIGES PLAYGROUP where moms and their miracle babies can get together to socialize with each other. One of my favorite past time activities is to create custom designed nursery paintings for all members of my general infertility support group who have made it to the other side of infertility. In addition, I am a leadership board member of the Michigan Fertility Alliance and helped to create the first ever Michigan Infertility Advocacy Day (MIAD) in September of 2021.

Welcome to this episode of "Gravel Legends," where we delve into the world of ultra-endurance cycling and spotlight one of its most formidable athletes: Cynthia Carson.Cynthia Carson has rapidly ascended the ranks of gravel racing, earning her place among the elite in ultra-endurance cycling. In 2024, she made history by becoming the first woman to win the Atlas Mountain Race, a grueling 844-mile event through Morocco's rugged terrain. Completing the race in 4 days, 19 hours, and 3 minutes, she finished 15th overall, a testament to her exceptional endurance and skill. Her achievements extend beyond the Atlas Mountain Race. Carson has secured victories at the Badlands race in Spain, where she not only claimed the women's title but also set a new course record, finishing in 21 hours and 34 minutes, beating the previous women's time by 10 hours. She has also conquered the Transcordilleras in Colombia, becoming the first woman to complete the race, and has earned top finishes at events like Unbound XL and Gran Guanche Gravel.What sets Carson apart is her unique mental fortitude. She embraces the challenges of ultra-endurance racing, viewing each obstacle as an opportunity for growth. Her ability to maintain focus and resilience, despite adversity, is a defining characteristic of her racing style.In addition to her mental toughness, Carson's technical skills are noteworthy. Her descending abilities on rough, off-road terrain are exceptional, allowing her to navigate technical descents with confidence and speed. This skill is crucial in gravel racing, where the ability to handle diverse and challenging terrains can make a significant difference. Carson's capacity to endure pain and discomfort is unparalleled. During the Atlas Mountain Race, she developed trench foot after a river crossing but continued to push forward, demonstrating her commitment and determination. Her ability to manage physical discomfort and maintain performance under extreme conditions is a hallmark of her racing career.Beyond her accomplishments, Carson is a passionate advocate for the cycling community. She has contributed to the Detours podcast, sharing insights into ultra-cycling and encouraging more women to participate in the sport. Her dedication to the cycling community and willingness to share her experiences highlight her commitment to fostering inclusivity and growth within the sport.In this episode, we've explored the remarkable journey of Cynthia Carson, from her rapid rise in ultra-endurance cycling to her advocacy for the sport.

The door to God and the glory he has prepared for us stands wide open. However, he has mapped out a very specific pathway to that door. It is not an easy one. As it did with Jesus, this route takes us through opposition, suffering, and even death. While our human nature may cause us to want to take a detour around these things, Jesus own life shows us that no detour is allowed. His cross came before his crown. The same path lies ahead of us. However, at the end of it, through the open door, we are offered a reward far superior to anything the world can offer.Support the showMessages from the King is produced by King of Kings Lutheran Church in Maitland, FL.To find out more about King of Kings...

SERIES: Open Door PoliciesThe door to God and the glory he has prepared for us stands wide open. However, he has mapped out a very specific pathway to that door. It is not an easy one. As it did with Jesus, this route takes us through opposition, suffering, and even death. While our human nature may cause us to want to take a detour around these things, Jesus' own life shows us that no detour is allowed. His cross came before his crown. The same path lies ahead of us. However, at the end of it, through the open door, we are offered a reward far superior to anything the world can offer.

“I was in the middle of nowhere in Albania on a road bike, and there was no way out—I had to go through the parkour. So I told my husband, ‘I can't ride it, but I'm going to walk it.' He rode ahead, and I just kept walking, waking him up every time I passed by. We spent 12 hours like that, but we made it out. And I said to myself, ‘That's never going to happen again. I'm going to learn how to ride off-road." —Sherry CardonaAfter struggling through a brutal 70-kilometer off-road section in her first Transcontinental Race (TCR), Sherry Cardona made a promise to herself: she would learn to ride off-road. Fast forward to 2025, and she's now taken on off-road bikepacking races like the Bohemian Border Bash, Badlands, and recently completed the Atlas Mountain Race, her first mountain bike ultra—a completely different challenge that tested her technical skills, race mindset, and ability to adapt.Sherry has quickly become a recognizable name in distance racing, not only for her impressive results—including winning TCR in a pair, twice—but for her ability to tell compelling stories about the highs, lows and realities of pushing limits on the bike through her YouTube channel, Buzzalong Cycling. In this episode, we dive into Sherry's ultra-cycling journey, from picking up a road bike for the first time at age 27, to racing TCR, Badlands, and now the Atlas Mountain Race. We talk about racing in a pair vs. solo, how she built confidence on technical terrain, and what it takes to push through when things aren't going to plan.In this episode we talk about: Her transition from road ultras to gravel and mountain bike racingRacing in the Transcontinental Race in a pair with her husband: the challenges, teamwork, and life lessonsHow she built confidence on technical terrain (including a mountain bike instructor who thought she had "no hope")Atlas Mountain Race: expectations vs. reality, adapting when things got tough, and learning to ride mountain bike terrainSurviving on honey, omelets, and Moroccan teaHow music (and a little bit of Taylor Swift) helped her get through hard momentsHer approach to training, gear choices, and what she'd do differently for if she were to race AMR again Follow Sherry's adventures: Follow Sherry on Instagram @sherry.cyclingWatch her Atlas Mountain Race videoSubscribe to her podcast Buzzalong CyclingAs always, a huge thank you to Albion for supporting Detours this year.Follow Detours on Instagram: @detourscyclingFollow Mel on Instagram: @melwwebbFollow Albion on Instagram: @albion.cycling Hosted on Acast.

Sometimes we get off the right road, and sometimes the road just doesn't go the way we think it should. But if we will trust God, and commit our ways to Him, He can even use the detours for our good. By Pastor Shawn Lyons.

Today, Rev. Wendy Craig-Purcell starts a series on “transformation” which is a challenging yet essential journey, often sparked by unexpected detours. These detours—whether sudden, gradual, or intentional—push us toward change, revealing the person we are meant to become. Just as a bulb holds everything needed for growth, we already have within us what is necessary for transformation. The journey is rarely a straight path but a zig-zag of experiences, challenges, and redirections that shape us. Personal detours, like the author's experience with Ice Capades, can feel like failures but often serve as divine guidance leading us to something greater. Trusting in God's detours allows us to grow, find purpose, and move forward in faith.~ Website: http://www.theunitycenter.net ~ Download Our New App: https://theunitycenter.churchcenter.com/setup~ Ask Yourself This: https://www.amazon.com/Ask-Yourself-This-Questions-Expand/dp/087159336X~ Subscribe to our YouTube channel: http://bit.ly/2hBqp7F ~ Purchase Lesson Series Packages: https://theunitycenter.net/sunday-series-packages~ Listen to our Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/6YJWcAhQUnkEHFqBXQmz1G

"The Log Driver's Waltz isn't a race; it's an invitation. An opportunity for anyone curious about bikepacking to show up, ride at their own pace, and share the experience. It brings people together—whether you're pushing yourself against the clock or taking time to enjoy the landscape and small communities along the way.”That's how Jen Adams and Eric Betteridge describe the Log Driver's Waltz—a stunning 800-kilometer bikepacking loop weaving through Ontario's Ottawa Valley and into Quebec. For them, it's all about community, shared experience, and adventure at your own pace.In this episode, Jen and Eric share how decades of adventure together—17-day canoe trips, countless rides through their home region, and racing the Tour Divide—led them to create this unique route. The Log Driver's Waltz isn't just about the terrain (though with 75% unpaved roads, forested trails, and rugged paths, it's no joke). It's about inviting riders to show up, ride how they want, and share the experience.We also dive into what it's like to ride as a couple, how they balance different rhythms on and off the bike, and why building an inclusive bikepacking community matters. Plus, Jen and Eric explain how the Log Driver's Waltz became part of the St. Lawrence Bikepacking Triple Crown and how they've intentionally created stepping stones—from accessible rallies to the full 800k loop—to help more people get into bikepacking.If you've ever been curious about lining up for a Grand Depart, wondered how to build confidence for your first bikepacking trip, or thought about what it takes to ride (and create) a route like this, this conversation is for you. In this episode, we talk about:The story behind the Log Driver's Waltz and its ties to Canadian cultureHow decades of adventure—from canoe trips to the Tour Divide—shaped Jen and Eric's approach to route buildingRiding as a couple: balancing different strengths, rhythms, and goals on the bikeThe creation of the St. Lawrence Bikepacking Triple Crown and fostering connections across the regionWhy community-building, safety, and accessibility are at the heart of the Log Driver's WaltzHow the route offers something for everyone—from those chasing FKTs to riders seeking a leisurely multi-day adventureTips for tackling the route, including bike setups, resupply points, and managing its surprisingly punchy climbsDetails & Links for the Log Driver's Waltz2025 Grand Depart: August 23rd,8 AM, Almonte Hills, Ontario, CanadaSpring Rally: For those who want to experience the route in more digestible chunksLog Driver's Waltz Official WebsiteLog Driver's Waltz Tips & Planning Facebook GroupFollow Jen & Eric's updates and rally details on social media @thelogdriverswaltzAs always, a huge thank you to Albion for supporting Detours this year.

God allows us to experience detours in life. These detours help fulfill God's purposes in our life. We are looking at some of the detours in Joseph's life in the Bible, and one detour to watch out for, believe it or not, is the detour of success. +++++++ Join us for church this Sunday.

In this episode, Kreed explores the complex emotions surrounding motherhood and estrangement, focusing on the themes of shame, healing, and personal growth. Through personal anecdotes and insights, she emphasizes that motherhood is a love story filled with detours and heartbreak, and that shame should not define a mother's worth. The conversation encourages estranged mothers to reclaim their narratives and find healing, highlighting the importance of self-care and challenging negative self-perceptions. Takeaways * Shame is not your legacy; motherhood is a love story. * Detours in motherhood are not dead ends but part of the journey. * Challenge the negative narratives you tell yourself. * Your worth is not tied to your child's choices. * Estrangement reflects their pain, not your value. * Motherhood is messy and imperfect; embrace your humanity. * Heartbreak in relationships is a shared experience. www.TheEstrangedHeart.com Email Kreed: TheEstrangedHeart@gmail.com Leave a voicemail for Kreed: https://www.theestrangedheart.com/voicemail/ Coaching with Kreed: https://TheEstrangedHeart-scheduler.as.me/COACHING Facebook Support Group for Estranged Moms: facilitated by Kreed - https://www.facebook.com/groups/estrangedmotherssupportgroup To support the podcast and Kreed's work with estranged and reconciled parents and adult children: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/kreedrevere  (one time donation)

One of the most talked about policy experiments in India in recent memory is the reform of government schools in the city-state of the National Capital Territory of Delhi. Under the leadership of the Aam Aadmi Party, the Delhi government has implemented an innovative program to equip students with foundational literacy and numeracy. But while these reforms are much discussed, they have been surprisingly under-studied. A new book by the scholar Yamini Aiyar tries to remedy this gap.Yamini's new book, Lessons in State Capacity from Delhi's Schools, draws on three years of ethnographic research where she and a team of colleagues were embedded in a cluster of schools across the national capital.Yamini is currently Visiting Senior Fellow at the Saxena Center for Contemporary South Asia and the Watson Institute at Brown University. Many of our listeners will know her from her work with the Centre for Policy Research in New Delhi, where she served as President from 2017 to 2024.To kick off season thirteen of Grand Tamasha, Yamini joins Milan on the show this week. They discuss Yamini's decade-long adventure studying India's public schools, the core elements of the Delhi education model, and the mysterious ways in which the India bureaucracy operates. Plus, they discuss whether the Delhi experiment can travel beyond the national capital.Episode notes:1. “How Bureaucracy Can Work for the Poor (with Akshay Mangla),” Grand Tamasha, March 29, 2023.2.

In this powerful episode of Bleeding Daylight, author Lori Ann Wood shares her extraordinary journey from being declared exceptionally healthy to fighting for her life with just 6% heart function. Three weeks after praying about an exciting new chapter in her empty-nest life, Wood found herself in cardiac ICU, facing a diagnosis that would transform not just her physical health, but her entire approach to faith and purpose.   Through her book "Divine Detour" and her candid conversation with host Rodney Olsen, Wood reveals how her experience with chronic heart failure led to unexpected ministry opportunities and deeper spiritual insights. Her story challenges conventional views of faith, healing, and God's presence in times of crisis, while offering hope and perspective to anyone facing life's unexpected detours. Wood's journey from college instructor to inspirational author demonstrates how life's greatest challenges can become pathways to profound purpose and meaning.
