In this solo episode of the Everyday Business Problems podcast, Dave Crysler tackles a question every leader should be asking, are you building real systems or just layering new tools and workarounds on top of old problems? Drawing from client stories and his own experience leading operational transformations, Dave breaks down why technology alone doesn't fix process issues, how poor change management drives inefficiency, and what it really takes to create smoother, more scalable systems. What You'll Discover: Why tools aren't systems, and what's missing when you treat them that way. How to recognize when you're solving symptoms instead of root causes. The difference between workarounds and true process improvement. Why most tool issues come down to configuration and implementation, not functionality. How avoiding tough conversations leads to costly inefficiencies. Why systems that integrate planning, people, process, and technology always outperform software swaps. What it means to lead with ownership, transparency, and continuous improvement.

Episode Summary In this opening episode of The Empowering Story, trauma-informed narrative coach Jean Dorff explores one of the most powerful — and most overlooked — moments in a survivor's healing journey: The moment before the first sentence. If you've ever opened a blank page… felt your chest tighten… and closed it again, this episode is for you. Jean guides you through the emotional, psychological, and embodied reasons why beginning your story feels so difficult — even if you've already done years of therapy, personal development, and deep reflection. You'll learn why high-functioning survivors struggle more, why the catastrophe your body predicts never arrives, what actually happens when you write that first sentence, and how beginning becomes the moment your past self, present self, and future self meet for the first time. This isn't an episode about trauma details. It's an episode about voice, safety, and the quiet relief waiting on the other side of beginning. In This Episode, You'll Discover: Why beginning your story feels impossible — even when you've done "the work" The three hidden barriers that keep survivors from writing their first sentence The truth about high-functioning survival strategies (and why they make beginning harder) Why the first sentence brings relief, not collapse What expressive writing research reveals about the healing process How writing reorganizes the story your nervous system has been carrying Why your beginning becomes a lighthouse for others How one sentence becomes the meeting point of your past, present, and future self A Gentle Note This episode is trauma-informed and non-triggering. Jean does not discuss graphic details, and the focus remains on emotional safety, identity, and the nervous system — not traumatic memories. You are safe here. Take the Next Step: Get the Story Clarity Guide If today's conversation stirred something in you — a memory, a desire to begin, or simply the quiet sense that your story is ready for a new chapter — the next step is gentle and clear:

What if the way you see yourself is keeping you stuck? In this powerful episode of Path to Paradise, Dr. Alex Loyd and his son Harry introduce "The Four Dark Mirrors"—a framework for understanding why 80% of people struggle to reach their full potential. Research shows that if you think right, you win. If you think wrong, you lose. But what does "thinking right" actually mean, and how do you know if you're doing it? Harry delivers a philosophical masterclass on self-reflection, exploring two of the four dark mirrors that distort our identity: The Empty Pool (narcissistic self-worship) and The Cultural Mirror (deriving worth from others' opinions). Through references to Socratic dialogue, Hannah Arendt's "banality of evil," and Jesus's teaching in Luke 9, Harry explains why growth requires what he calls "psychological violence"—the willingness to die to your old self in order to become who you're meant to be. What You'll Discover: ✓ Why asking "What do we owe each other?" is the wrong question for personal growth ✓ The difference between being decent and being heroic (Kitty Genovese example) ✓ How The Empty Pool mirror keeps you trapped in self-centeredness ✓ Why The Cultural Mirror creates psychological instability even in close relationships ✓ How children's brains imprint cultural values (ages 0-9) and why maturity means questioning them ✓ The "banality of evil": How conformity leads to moral compromise ✓ Why having people dislike you might be a sign of growth ✓ How confidence both comes from truth AND leads you to truth ✓ The paradox of freedom: Why commitment destroys freedom but gives it meaning ✓ What Jesus really meant by "losing your life to find it" (Greek word: psyche) Key Topics Covered: The fundamental flaw in deriving identity from others' regard (lovers, friends, social media, community) Dan Gilbert's research: How expectations about things outside your control create chronic stress The neuroscience of social influence: How close relationships literally restructure your brain (Antonio Damasio) Why productive disagreement becomes impossible when your identity depends on others' approval How culture becomes "the empty pool writ large" through advertising, media, and conformity The two requirements for transformation: reflection and conviction Why "No, but I want to be willing" is enough to start with Practice of Paradise Update: The Founder's Special has closed with amazing early results.

We've become really good at managing crises, but somewhere along the way, we forgot how to live. In this season premiere, we introduce what it means to restore the lost art of being family—creating homes where a hard life is experienced differently, in secure relationships. This isn't about behavior modification or quick fixes. It's about life cultivation. Whether you're a parent, grandparent, or anyone raising or influencing children, this episode sets the foundation for everything we'll explore together this season. In This Episode, You'll Discover: Why modern parenting has become crisis management—and what we're missing The Performance/Pain Relief cycle keeping families stuck in survival mode How our brains are being shaped by what we practice (survival, striving, or freedom) The two lenses: Old Lens (earn, deserve, take) vs. New Lens (trust, receive) What Jesus really meant in John 15 about unfruitful branches (spoiler: you're being lifted up, not burned) An introduction to the LIF alphabet—a guide to living secure in a struggling world One simple practice to begin transformation this week Quotable Moments "We've become really good problem-solvers. We know how to eliminate threats, but we've forgotten how to LIVE." "We're starving for relational nutrition in the middle of a fast-food feast of standardized success and maximized comfort." "A hard life is experienced differently in secure relationships. We're not offering a life without problems—we're offering a secure place to stand while navigating problems." "Our brains are being built by what we practice. When we practice security, our brains begin to rewire." "Unfruitful living branches are restored; dead branches are removed to protect life. God does not discard the struggling—He tends them back to life." "You are not a dead branch about to be burned. You're a living branch being lifted up." "The way we SEE changes everything."   "God won't skip you to get to your children." Three Takeaways We're restoring the lost art of being family. This season is about learning to create homes where a hard life is experienced differently—in secure relationships. Not crisis management, but life cultivation. You're a living branch being lifted up. God doesn't discard the struggling—He tends them back to life. You're not too far gone. You're not failing. You're being repositioned to bear fruit. Trust that. This week: just notice. When you reach for something, ask yourself: Am I reaching from security (trusting and receiving from the Source) or insecurity (trying to earn, deserve, or take what I need)? Awareness is the first step. We're learning this together.

And this episode is your gentle invitation to stop chasing happiness and start tending what matters. What You'll Discover:Why happiness as a finish line keeps us stuckHow the PERMA‑H model gives us a fuller picture of wellbeingHow cultural expectations twist engagement, achievement, health & moreA simple journaling exercise to map where you're full and where you need spaceWhy flourishing is rhythmic – not balanced or perfect “Flourishing is the whole spectrum – light and dark, joy and grief, purpose and pause. And learning to hold all of it – that's what it really means to be alive.”

In this solo episode of the Everyday Business Problems podcast, Dave Crysler tackles one of the most common leadership questions: "How fast can we make this change happen?" Drawing from real-world client stories and decades of operational experience, Dave breaks down why most change efforts stall, not because of strategy or tools, but because leaders underestimate the time, clarity, and consistency real change takes. What You'll Discover: Why change management timelines matter, and how to build them for real progress. The difference between focusing on actions versus dates when planning change. How to create milestones and measurable behaviors that show change is taking hold. The importance of clarity, consistency, and accountability from leadership. How to coach and upskill your team through change instead of overwhelming them. Why technology moves faster than culture, and how to bridge that gap. Simple ways to stay flexible, give progress time to breathe, and know when to adjust.

Most people spend their lives avoiding the emotional "basement" where trauma and pain are stored. But what's in your basement doesn't stay there - it affects your health, relationships, and everything else. What You'll Discover: ✅ Why spiritual issues underlie most health and relationship problems ✅ How your unconscious mind (the biblical "heart") stores all your memories ✅ Why you can't just lock painful experiences in the basement and move on ✅ The connection between ancestral memories and your current well-being ✅ How images control your heart more than thoughts or willpower ✅ Practical tools to heal trauma at the source, not just manage symptoms Key Topics Covered: The heart as the central metaphor in both psychology and Scripture Why ignoring emotional trauma creates physical and mental health issues How the unconscious mind communicates with the conscious mind The relationship between gratitude, positive emotions, and physical healing Why addressing circumstances never solves the real problem Transformative healing through intentional practices Powerful Sound Bites: "You have to open that door to your basement. You can't just throw it in there and lock it up." "It's never too late to drain your stress barrel." "The biggest control you have over your heart is the images you allow in." "Your life is never about your circumstances - you have to heal the source of your issues." Core Message: The heart (your unconscious mind) is where psychology and biblical teaching converge. Healing requires confronting and resolving past traumas with proper tools, not just covering them up or managing symptoms. Transformation is possible when you address the spiritual and emotional foundation. Practice of Paradise Update: The Founder's Special has closed with amazing early results.

When Jane Seymour gave birth to Henry VIII's long-awaited son, England rejoiced. Bells rang, bonfires blazed, and Henry finally had his male heir. But just twelve days later, the joy turned to sorrow, Queen Jane Seymour was dead. For centuries, her death has been shrouded in confusion and myth. Some say she died after a Caesarean section. Others, childbed fever. Alison Weir believes food poisoning and an embolism were to blame. In this episode, I take  a closer look at the evidence, exploring eyewitness reports, Tudor medicine, and modern medical insight, to uncover what really killed Henry VIII's third wife. Discover: Why the “food poisoning” theory doesn't fit the timeline How a thirty-hour labour made infection likely Why the phrase “taking cold” may describe septic shock And how the choice of a royal physician over a midwife may have cost Jane her life This is the tragic and very human story behind the death of Henry VIII's so-called “perfect queen.” Sources & Further Reading: https://tudortimes.co.uk/guest-articles/why-did-jane-seymour-die-in-childbed https://tudortimes.co.uk/guest-articles/why-did-jane-seymour-die-in-childbed/evidence https://tudortimes.co.uk/guest-articles/why-did-jane-seymour-die-in-childbed/more-than-one-pregnancy https://tudortimes.co.uk/guest-articles/why-did-jane-seymour-die-in-childbed/final-stages https://elizabethnortonhistorian.blogspot.com/2014/10/the-death-of-queen-jane.html The Seymour Family, history and romance by Amy Audrey Locke - https://archive.org/details/seymourfamilyhis00lockuoft/page/18/mode/2up?q=cold 'Henry VIII: October 1537, 21-25', in Letters and Papers, Foreign and Domestic, Henry VIII, Volume 12 Part 2, June-December 1537, ed.

Young adults today are 1,600% more likely to identify as transgender than people over 50. Every family may not struggle with this issue—but every family will face it. Are you ready? In this critical episode of Refining Rhetoric, host Robert Bortins sits down with Dr. Jeff Myers, President of Summit Ministries and author of the new book Raising Gender Confident Kids, for an unflinching conversation about one of the most pressing challenges facing Christian families today. Dr. Myers reveals why gender ideology isn't just about elevating Pride Month—it's a calculated strategy to tear down the foundations of Western civilization and biblical worldview. What You'll Discover: Why 39% of young adults now identify as LGBTQ—and what's driving this dramatic shift The shocking reality of "transgender recruitment" happening in public schools (and some private schools) How gender ideology functions as an anti-Christ religion with its own evangelism and discipleship steps Age-appropriate conversation strategies for elementary, middle school, and high school students Why middle schoolers are being specifically targeted before they complete puberty How to help your child respond when they can't tell if someone is a boy or a girl The biological truth: 6,500 cataloged differences between males and females—and why they're designed to harmonize Why teaching "Imago Dei" (being made in God's image) is now mission-critical for every Christian family Dr. Myers doesn't sugarcoat the reality: this is a well-funded, strategic assault on the biblical understanding of humanity. But he also offers hope, practical tools, and a pathway for parents to raise children who are confident in God's good design—while showing Christ's love to a generation that's been tragically deceived.   Resources: Raising Gender Confident Kids book - genderconfidentkids.com   https://www.summit.org/    This episode of Refining Rhetoric is sponsored by: 2026 Classical Conversations Family Cruise Have you heard?

Join Dr. Alex Lloyd and Harry for a groundbreaking Episode. Discover the life-changing distinction between "practicing sin" and "stumbling into sin" - a difference that freed Dr. Alex from decades of guilt and shame. What You'll Discover: ✅ Why most people misunderstand what makes sin truly dangerous ✅ The Greek word that changes everything about guilt and shame ✅ What the Apostle Paul meant by "it's not me doing it" ✅ How to tell if you're practicing sin or stumbling into it ✅ Why your identity should never be defined by your mistakes ✅ The unpardonable sin: what it actually is (and isn't) Key Topics Covered: The critical difference between practicing (PRASO) vs. stumbling into sin Why "routine" and "habit" define practicing, not just doing something wrong Romans 7: Paul's confession of doing what he didn't want to do Your true identity as a child of God vs. identifying as your sin Two Biblical lists of sins - and why they use the word "practice" Grace covers stumbling; practicing puts you in a gray area Dr. Alex's Liberation: "I realized I have not, for the most part, practiced sin. I've stumbled into sin. Scripturally, this means I was always still saved. What wasted guilt and shame! Don't do it any longer." Harry's Insight: "You can only practice one thing at a time. That's why practicing sin blocks you from the kingdom of God - not because you lose salvation, but because you can't practice Christian living and sin simultaneously." The Core Message: If your intention is "I don't want to do this, but I keep messing up" - that's stumbling, and you're covered by grace. If your intention is "I'm going to keep doing this as a routine" - that's practicing, and you need to change your intention immediately.
