Podcasts about Distress

Distress has emerged in the multifamily space. Lenders are taking projects back from sponsors and selling them for the debt or even taking losses in many cases. As a result, some great deals are being made by sponsors to capitalize on these situations and acquire solid workforce properties at a discount. David Lilley, Founder & CEO of Reap Capital, is acquiring 80's vintage properties in Dallas and San Antonio at steep discounts. He's also starting to consider expanding into Florida and Arizona. Reap capital is a vertically integrated multifamily operator based in Dallas.

Have you ever had the experience of suddenly feeling huge in your body, even though nothing about your body has actually changed? That moment of intense body distress is incredibly common in eating disorder recovery. But what if that feeling is not really about body size at all? In this episode of Dr. Marianne-Land, Dr. Marianne Miller is joined by Amy Ornelas, RDN, an eating disorder dietitian, yoga teacher, and somatic therapy practitioner, to explore what body distress may actually be signaling underneath the surface. Together, they unpack how thoughts like “I feel huge” can often reflect emotional activation, overwhelm, grief, shame, anger, or stress rather than a literal change in body size. Amy explains how eating disorder behaviors such as restriction, binge eating, and purging can alter brain chemistry and disconnect people from their internal emotional world. When those behaviors begin to shift in recovery, many people suddenly find themselves face to face with emotions that may have been numbed or pushed aside for years. This can feel confusing, intense, and sometimes even frightening. Dr. Marianne and Amy talk about how eating disorders can function as powerful survival strategies that help people manage overwhelming emotional states. Rather than demonizing these behaviors, they explore how they often develop as adaptive coping mechanisms in environments where emotional expression was discouraged, dismissed, or unsafe. The conversation also highlights how family dynamics, culture, trauma, and neurodivergence can shape the way people learn to relate to their emotions. Many individuals grow up hearing messages that they are too sensitive, too emotional, or should simply get over what they feel. Over time, these messages can make emotional awareness feel dangerous or overwhelming. Amy introduces the role of somatic therapy in eating disorder recovery and explains how body-based approaches can help people reconnect with their internal sensations in a gradual and supportive way. Instead of forcing emotional processing, somatic work focuses on building safety in the nervous system and slowly increasing the capacity to notice and tolerate emotional states. Dr. Marianne and Amy also discuss how body image distress can function as a powerful distraction. It can feel easier to focus anger, fear, or grief on the body than to confront deeper sources of pain, such as relational conflict, social stress, or systemic injustice. Learning to translate body distress into emotional language can help people understand what their internal system is truly trying to communicate. This episode also addresses an important reality in eating disorder recovery: sometimes people appear more emotionally dysregulated as they begin healing. That increase in emotional expression can actually be a sign that someone is reconnecting with their inner world after years of emotional numbing. Amy shares several practical tools that can help people begin reconnecting with their emotions, including brief emotional check-ins throughout the day, asking simple questions about what feelings may be present when eating disorder urges arise, and using movement to help emotional energy move through the body. Dr. Marianne also brings in a neurodivergent-affirming lens, discussing how stimming, rocking, sensory soothing, and other nervous system supports can help people stay connected to themselves during emotionally intense moments. Together, they emphasize that emotions are not problems to eliminate. They are information from our internal systems that help guide us toward safety, boundaries, authenticity, and healing. In this episode, we discuss How eating disorder behaviors can numb or redirect difficult emotions. Why recovery often brings a surge of feelings to the surface, What somatic therapy is and how it can support eating disorder recovery. Why the thought “I feel huge” often reflects emotional distress rather than body change. How trauma, family systems, and culture shape emotional expression. Why body image distress can act as a distraction from deeper pain. The difference between compartmentalizing emotions and avoiding them. Why increased emotional intensity can be a sign of progress in recovery. Practical ways to begin noticing and naming emotions during recovery. How neurodivergent people may benefit from stimming and sensory supports.

Send a textThe room goes quiet when Zophar's words land: no quietness in the belly, no lasting gain, calamity right when barns are full. We walk through Job 20 with clear eyes and open Bibles, tracing how a true doctrine about the wicked became a misfire against a righteous man. That tension—truth without wisdom—pushes us to ask harder questions about suffering, ambition, and what actually brings rest to a hungry heart.We unpack the anatomy of appetite: why the belly, as Scripture pictures it, never stops wanting; why more money, more security, and more applause rarely translate into peace; and how “arrival” is a mirage that drains delight even as it grows our to-do lists. The line “he shall not feel quietness in his belly” becomes a mirror for modern life, revealing why our calendars swell while our souls shrink. From there, we tackle the deeper spiritual law embedded in these verses: sin carries its own undoing. Greed consumes its gains. Pride isolates the victor. Exploitation hollows out legacies until “none of his meat be left.”We also refuse the lazy math that equates prosperity with God's favor and pain with hidden guilt. Job's integrity matters here—“The Lord gives and the Lord takes away”—because it reminds us that faith can bless God without gifts. We contrast the rich fool's bigger barns with being rich toward God, showing how abundance becomes a trap when eternity is ignored. And then comes the line that still stings: “In the fullness of his sufficiency, he shall be in straits.” Distress always finds a door into stockpiled life. The answer is not more locks but a new love: Christ reorders desire, anchors joy beyond loss, and grants the quietness no fortune can buy.If this conversation challenged your view of success, share it with a friend, subscribe for more thoughtful, Scripture-centered episodes, and leave a review telling us where you've seen “more” fail to satisfy.

Author, here! After the amazing reaction you guys had to part one, I hope you all enjoy the conclusion. Part one was the build up, this is the rollercoaster ride down! And, for those who have messaged me incessantly recently, asking if MCP is going to finish covering my series My Wife and I went to Las Vegas for our Honeymoon, which I actually redid every part, including the first two he posted, to make it better, if you want to hear him narrate the redone story, let him know!

Author here! This an older, more cosmic underwater horror story of mine from two years ago, a two parter that got a lot of positive reaction on Reddit. It has some flaws, but I hope you enjoy it, and the upcoming second part as much as you did my Abandoned Ship story, Exploding Whale and Crater Lake stories MCP has done. And also, I hope you caught the tributes to horror movie characters, directors and writers with names like Carpenter, Alten, King and Windows.

Summary While the Great Hunger in Ireland remains one of the most documented tragedies of the nineteenth century, the story of what happened across the Irish Sea in the Scottish Highlands is often overlooked or romanticised. In this episode, we strip away the Hollywood imagery of baronial halls and tartan myths to look at the real experience of the Highland Potato Famine of 1846. We explore the “Geographic Trap” of the Highland Boundary Fault, the Coastal Squeeze of the Clearances, and the legal engineering of the 1845 Poor Law that left the starving with no right to relief. Using the latest research from Sir Tom Devine and Michael Lynch, we investigate the Empathy Gap between the absentee Landlords and the crofters clinging to the soil in the Western Isles. As the “Year of Railway Mania” gripped the England and the Lowlands of Scotland, a biological rot was creeping north. This is a story of how a system that prioritised economic efficiency over human survival turned a bad harvest into a national catastrophe.

This week on a very special episode of Friendless, we're leaving the mindfulness skills behind and stepping into DBT's toolkit for emotional emergencies: the moments when you're at an eight or nine on the chaos scale, logic has stepped out of the building, and your nervous system is running the whole show. The only goal in those moments? Don't make things worse.In this episode, James breaks down two core Distress Tolerance skills:The STOP Skill — your emergency brake for when your thumb is hovering over "send," you can feel those words rising in your throat, and everything in your body is screaming do something. STOP interrupts the impulse-to-action pipeline just long enough to give you back a choice.The TIP Skills — a set of physical interventions (Temperature, Intense exercise, Paced breathing, and Paired muscle relaxation) that work directly on your biology when you're too flooded to think your way through anything. Because sometimes you can't logic your way out of a crisis. You have to use your body.James also shares two personal stories: what happened when he recorded a full 45-minute episode and forgot to hit record, and how he used the STOP skill in real time during a text conversation that was heading somewhere neither party wanted to go.We wrap with a short guided mental rehearsal so these skills are a little more accessible when the real crisis hits.In this episode:• Why mindfulness alone isn't enough when your brain is in chaos mode• What's actually happening in your nervous system during a crisis (and why the first impulse is almost always the wrong one)• The STOP skill, broken down step by step• The TIP skills: Temperature, Intense Exercise, Paced Breathing, and Paired Muscle Relaxation• The dive reflex — and why cold water actually works• Why a long exhale is a biological signal that the danger is over• A short guided rehearsal to help build your crisis response mapConnect with Friendless:• Email: friendlesspod@gmail.com• Instagram: @friendlesspod• TikTok: @friendlesspodCreate your podcast today! #madeonzencastr

Pain is inevitable, but suffering does not have to be.

Why do you order pizza, pour a glass of wine, or reach for chocolate or chips when you're not actually hungry?It may not be about willpower. And it may not even be about food.In this episode, Lisa Oldson, MD explains how distress tolerance, your ability to sit with uncomfortable emotions without immediately trying to escape them, may be the missing link in sustainable weight loss and healthy habit change.Drawing from research in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dr. Oldson walks you through how increasing psychological flexibility can reduce impulsive eating, late-night snacking, emotional eating, and even binge behaviors.You'll learn:What distress tolerance really is (and what it's not)Why cravings are often about emotional discomfort, not hungerHow urge surfing works to reduce impulsive eatingA simple 5-minute daily practice to build emotional enduranceHow to use TIP skills to calm your nervous system during intense cravingsWhy delaying a binge by even 5 minutes is meaningful progressWhat real improvement looks like (hint: not perfection)If you feel like you “know what to do” but struggle to actually do it, this episode will help you understand why, and give you practical tools to finally make healthy habits stick.Thanks for listening!

In dieser Folge spreche ich mit Florian Wolf, dem CEO von Your Prevention und Experten für integrales Stresstyping. Stress gilt als einer der größten Risikofaktoren für das Altern; er ist ein systemischer Trigger für nahezu alle Zivilisationskrankheiten von Diabetes Typ 2 bis hin zur Neurodegeneration. Doch Stress ist nicht gleich Stress. Gemeinsam mit Florian Wolf beleuchte ich die neurobiologische Realität hinter Begriffen wie Eustress und Distress. Wir explorieren, warum klassische Ratschläge wie „einfach mal runterfahren“ oft scheitern, wenn das System bereits neuroadaptiv verstellt ist. Für eine echte Healthy Longevity ist es entscheidend zu verstehen, wie unser autonomes Nervensystem – das Zusammenspiel von Sympathikus und Parasympathikus – sowie das Orchester aus Neurotransmittern und Hormonen wie Cortisol und Katecholaminen unsere Resilienz bestimmen. Erfahren Sie, wie wir durch präzise Messmethoden wie die Herzfrequenzvariabilität (HRV) und spezifische Urin- sowie Speichelanalysen blinde Flecken in unserer Gesundheitsbiografie aufdecken können.  In dieser Folge sprechen wir u.a. über folgende Themen:  Warum gilt chronischer Stress als zentraler Trigger für altersbedingte Volkskrankheiten?  Was unterscheidet Eustress von toxischem Distress auf biologischer Ebene?  Wie verändern sich die Aktivitätszentren im Gehirn – weg vom präfrontalen Kortex hin zur Amygdala – bei Dauerbelastung?  Welche Rolle spielen Katecholamine wie Adrenalin und Noradrenalin bei der Energiebereitstellung und Zellschädigung?  Warum ist das Hormon Cortisol sowohl lebensnotwendig als auch in chronischer Überdosis gefährlich?  Wie kann die Herzfrequenzvariabilität (HRV) als präziser Marker für die Regenerationsfähigkeit genutzt werden?  Was verbirgt sich hinter dem Konzept des integralen Stresstypings (IST)?  Weshalb ist die Messung im zweiten Morgenurin für die Bestimmung von Neurotransmittern so entscheidend?  Wie beeinflussen genetische Varianten wie der COMT-Polymorphismus den Abbau von Stresshormonen?  Warum ist eine Verhaltensänderung bei hoher Vulnerabilität ohne biologische Unterstützung oft unmöglich?  Wie können Mikrointerventionen und die Silva-Mind-Methode helfen, neue neuronale Pfade zu festigen?   Weitere Informationen zu Florian Wolf findest du hier:  https://spitzen-praevention.com/netzwerkpartner/rflorian-wolf-your-prevention/  linkedin.com/in/florian-wolf-00b056b  Du interessierst dich für Gesunde Langlebigkeit (Longevity) und möchtest ein Leben lang gesund und fit bleiben, dann folge mir auch auf den sozialen Kanälen bei Instagram, TikTok, Facebook oder YouTube. https://www.instagram.com/nina.ruge.official https://www.tiktok.com/@nina.ruge.official https://www.facebook.com/NinaRugeOffiziell https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOe2d1hLARB60z2hg039l9g   Disclaimer: Ich bin keine Ärztin und meine Inhalte ersetzen keine medizinische Beratung.

Holy Distress: How One Man Shook an Entire City Have you ever walked into a city—or even a room—and felt something stir deep inside you? Not anger. Not annoyance. But a holy distress. In this episode, Rob Skinner takes us to Acts 17 and walks with Paul into Athens—the intellectual capital of the ancient world. One man. One city. One burning conviction. Paul wasn't impressed by Athens' architecture, culture, or ideas. He was distressed. Why? Because the city was full of idols and people didn't know God. This message is a blueprint for spiritual courage in a modern city.

Dan, Joan, and Sam think the State of the Union was really telling and in a lot of ways. From disrespect to distress, there's not a negative emotion the Democrats can't contain | aired on Wednesday, February 25th, 2026, on Nashville's Morning News with Dan MandisSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

1. Pressed on Every Side 2. Regaining Confidence 3. Calmly Resting Psalm 4 presents a powerful portrait of spiritual resilience amid deep distress, as King David, fleeing his rebellious son Absalom, cries out to God in anguish yet ultimately finds profound peace through intimate communion with the Lord. This psalm unfolds as a journey from turmoil to tranquility, beginning with a desperate plea for divine deliverance and progressing through meditation on God's righteous character, past mercies, and covenant faithfulness. As David turns his heart inward, reflecting on God's sovereignty and the futility of human vanity, he regains confidence not through external circumstances but through the inner stillness of trusting God's proven faithfulness. This leads to a transformative shift: from anxiety and sleeplessness to a calm assurance that allows him to rest securely, knowing that the Lord alone makes him dwell in safety. The psalm thus serves as an inspired guide for believers, teaching that true peace is not the absence of trial but the presence of God, found in prayer, meditation on Scripture, and surrender to the unshakable character of the God of righteousness.

What if a major driver of today’s mental health crisis isn’t simply “more disorders,” but more people who feel unseen, unheard, and alone? In this episode of the Thinking Christian Podcast, Dr. James Spencer talks with Dr. Jackie E. Perry—Clinical Supervisor, Professor of Counselor Education at Columbia International University, and President of the Soulwell Center—about loneliness, the loss of emotional connection, and why the church must recover the skill of attuned listening. Jackie explains how the Soulwell Center began: while teaching counselor “helping skills,” she realized many of those relational tools could be taught in a lay-friendly way to parents, pastors, and everyday Christians. The result is a training approach that combines practical listening techniques with the neuroscience of relationships—equipping people to hold a safe space where others can feel truly “seen and known.” James and Jackie discuss a trend Jackie has observed across decades in the mental health field: in the last 10–15 years, more clients have been coming not primarily with severe pathology, but because they don’t have anyone who listens. Therapy becomes a paid place of connection—something that should not be rare in Christian community. The conversation explores how technology can create distance (including the rise of AI-mediated communication), why many people lack a “mental model” for deep listening, and how shame and perceived “threat” can make relational closeness feel unsafe. Jackie introduces the concept of “eyes of delight”—the nonverbal experience of being attended to with warmth—and explains why nonverbal presence often does more than words. They also connect listening to the broader formation of disciples: without embodied, relational connection, people drift into isolation, cope through substitutes, and struggle to develop distress tolerance—the ability to endure discomfort and stay engaged through conflict, hardship, and the messiness of real relationships. The result is not only loneliness, but fragility and retreat from vocation, mission, and spiritual maturity. In the end, Jackie offers a simple but demanding vision: the church must become a community that can listen across difference and reflect the “eyes of Christ.” That kind of faithful presence is not optional—it is essential for discipleship, mental health, and a credible Christian witness today. Topics include: Soulwell Center’s mission and the “listening course” Loneliness, mental health, and why therapy becomes a substitute for community “Eyes of delight” and the neuroscience of connection Shame, vulnerability, and why being known can feel threatening Nonverbal communication and why presence matters Distress tolerance, overprotection, and the formation of resilient adults What the church must recover to make faithful disciples You can purchase Heart Cries of Every Teen here.

We tend to think that our personal struggles are unique to our era, but many of our modern problems have very ancient solutions.

Join hosts John Drew and Jim Beard, along with special guest JB Anderton (Doctor Who Gives a F*ck/The Bat 77 podcast), as they tackle one of the most controversial multi-Doctor stories in classic Who history. Production Overview: The hosts discuss the behind-the-scenes details of this 1985 three-part adventure, including how the location shifted from the originally planned New Orleans to Seville, Spain. They explore the challenging filming conditions, including extreme heat that made the production difficult, and discuss how this became Colin Baker's favorite story due to his friendship with Patrick Troughton. Creative Conflicts: The episode examines the tension between writer Robert Holmes and director Peter Moffatt, who had very different visions for the story's tone. The hosts also discuss script editor Eric Saward's influence and his preference for darker, more violent content. The Season 6B Theory: The hosts dive deep into fan theories explaining why the Second Doctor and Jamie appear older and why the Doctor seems to be working for the Time Lords, introducing listeners to the concept of "Season 6B" - the idea that the Second Doctor had adventures between his trial and regeneration. Performance Praise: All three hosts agree that Patrick Troughton delivers an excellent performance, giving the role his full commitment despite the script's issues. Colin Baker also receives praise for his dedication, though the hosts feel the material doesn't serve either Doctor well enough. Major Criticisms: The character of Shockeye and the extended focus on food/cannibalism themes Gratuitous violence including the rat-eating scene Poor pacing that stretches the story beyond its natural length Wasted potential for Jamie's character The controversial ending where the Sixth Doctor kills Shockeye Questionable makeup choices for Troughton's Androgum transformation Tall Sontarans that contradict established lore Historical Context: The hosts note that during the airing of part two, the BBC announced Doctor Who would be "rested" for 18 months, creating controversy among fans. The hosts conclude that while the story began with promise in part one, it devolved significantly by part three, with the violence and Shockeye subplot overwhelming what could have been an engaging multi-Doctor adventure. Coming Up Next: Patreon Exclusive: John and Jim wrap up their look at Colin Baker's Voyager comic story, spin the Memory TARDIS, and dive into the infamous "A Fix with Sontarans" special from Jim'll Fix It. Plus, Jim finally shares his thoughts on the legendary (and infamous) charity single "Doctor in Distress" by Ian Levine and company. Next Main Episode: The hosts continue their Colin Baker journey with "Timelash," joined by special guest Alan J. Porter.

In this candid and wide-ranging conversation, Michael Blank reconnects with Rod Khleif, multifamily investor, educator, and entrepreneur, to unpack what's really happened in real estate over the past few years. Together, they discuss the current multifamily downturn, rising expenses, distressed assets, and why pain in the market often creates the greatest opportunities. The episode also explores alternative asset classes, operating businesses, syndication beyond apartments, and how investors can position themselves for what's coming next.Key Takeaways Multifamily is going through a real reckoning, driven by rising interest rates, expenses, and maturing debt—not a broken asset class.Separating the past from the future is critical — what happened over the last two years doesn't define the next cycle.Syndication is the transferable skill, applicable to real estate, senior housing, self-storage, and even operating businesses.Distress creates opportunity, especially with forced sales, refinancing challenges, and upcoming loan maturities.Partner selection matters more than ever — misaligned or weak partners can destroy otherwise solid deals.Diversification across asset classes and strategies can create resilience during volatile market cycles.Connect with MichaelFacebookInstagramYouTubeTikTokResourcesTheFreedomPodcast.com Access the #1 FREE Apartment Investing Course (Apartments 101)Schedule a Free Strategy Session with Michael's Team of AdvisorsExplore Michael's Mentoring ProgramJoin the Nighthawk Equity Investor ClubReview the Podcast on Apple PodcastsSyndicated Deal AnalyzerGet the Book, Financial Freedom with Real Estate Investing by Michael BlankFor full episode show notes visit: https://themichaelblank.com/podcasts/session510/

Most investors wait for certainty. Smart investors move while others hesitate.   Right now, we're in one of those rare moments where fear is creating opportunity.   Distress isn't the enemy — it's the signal. Lenders are forcing assets to market. Operators without discipline are feeling the pressure. And those who prepared early are stepping in with clarity.   This isn't about timing the market perfectly. It's about understanding cycles, underwriting conservatively, and having the courage to act when others sit on the sidelines.   That's how real wealth is built — quietly, patiently, and with conviction.

As the number of patients and survivors of cancer grows each year, awareness of the disease's emotional toll—including depression, anxiety, and deep existential distress—is increasingly recognized as a critical aspect of cancer care. In response, psychedelic-assisted therapy is gaining attention as a promising alternative to traditional mental health interventions, providing relief for some patients. To shed light on the patient experience with this treatment, CANCER BUZZ spoke with breast cancer survivor Judy Wight; Jennifer Bires, MSW, LCSW, OSW-C, FACCC, executive director of Life with Cancer and Patient Experience at Inova Health System; and Manish Agrawal, MD, cofounder and CEO of Sunstone Therapies, about the human side of psychedelic-assisted therapy, promising existing research, and how it can shape the future of psychosocial care. "It's not that I'm a different person. It's more like I'm becoming the person I was meant to be. And all those layers of trauma and sadness...I've been able to shed a lot of that." – Judy Wight "When I started to learn about psychedelic-assisted therapy, read some of the patient accounts, and see some of the research, I said, 'I've got to learn about this. I think that this could be another tool that would be useful for people in this space where we don't have the perfect answer, and we don't have the perfect treatments.'" – Jennifer Bires, MSW, LCSW, OSW-C, FACCC "When I give talks around this, I have an iceberg. Above the iceberg I have chemotherapy, surgery, and radiation, and underneath the iceberg I have what's called psychosocial, psycho-spiritual, psychological care. And I think true cancer care is treating everything in the iceberg, not just what's above the water." – Manish Agrawal, MD   Guests: Jennifer Bires, MSW, LCSW, OSW-C, FACCC  Executive Director, Life with Cancer and Patient Experience Inova Health System Fairfax, VA   Judy Wight Breast Cancer Survivor   Manish Agrawal, MD Cofounder and CEO Sunstone Therapies REKINDLE Investigator   This podcast is sponsored by Reunion Neuroscience.   Resources: The REKINDLE Study ClinicalTrials (NCT07002034) REKINDLE Brochure Reunion Neuroscience Adjustment Disorder Associated With Medical Illness: Unmet Needs and Rationale for RE104 as a Novel Psychedelic Therapy Exploring Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy in Oncology Addressing the Psychological Burdens of Cancer on World Mental Health Day Psychosocial Care in Oncology: Advocating for Policy Changes that Improve the Culture of Care Collaborative Care: A Model for Embedding Counseling in Oncology and Palliative Care Spirituality and Cultural Humility: Core Components of Comprehensive Palliative Care Psychosocial Care in Oncology Collaborative Care: A Solution for Increasing Access to Psychosocial Care in Cancer Programs and Practices Scan to learn more about the REKINDLE study:  

Most people pray for relief from pressure, but David recognized that God was actually expanding him through it. I explain why Scripture shows distress is often the tool God uses to enlarge your capacity, strengthen your character, and prepare you for greater responsibility  .

Are you experiencing burnout, or is something deeper happening when you feel that gut-wrenching sensation of knowing what's right but being unable to do it? In this episode, Dr. Jo Braid draws from her experience chairing an expert panel at the MPLA conference in 2025 to clarify the crucial distinctions between moral distress, moral injury, and burnout. Understanding these differences isn't just academic—it's essential for addressing what you're actually experiencing and finding the right interventions. You'll learn to recognize the physical and emotional signs of each condition, discover why moral distress often gets misdiagnosed as individual weakness when it's actually a system problem, and gain practical tools for responding appropriately to each situation. Join Dr. Braid as she gives you the vocabulary to name your experience and the framework to address it effectively, because when you can accurately identify what you're facing, you can take the right steps toward recovery.

2 Corinthians 7:2-16 - Speaker: Lukus Counterman - 2 Corinthians 7 is such a practical passage on the distinction between regret and repentance. Paul surfaces the contrast between godly grief and worldly grief, and he calls us to the former. When sin causes relational distress, the way forward is repentance, the sort that comes from godly grief. So, maybe you've heard someone say in exasperation, “Good grief!” Well, there is a good grief – it's the godly sort that leads to repentance and ultimately the deliverance we need. May the Lord work in our relational fallouts to not just give us a hand, but give us joy in divine deliverance.

What does it take to finally break free and begin the process of healing from trauma bonding to reclaim your power and truth? Guest Brooke Deanne, a Trauma Healing Mentor, Rapid Transformational Therapist, and Neuro Linguistic Programming Practitioner, joins us to share her raw and profound journey of overcoming religious cult indoctrination, a 17-year abusive marriage that perpetuated the pain of her past, and toxic relationships. Brooke, author of Shattered, Broken, and Beautiful: Losing my Religion and Finding Faith, and founder of the podcast Goddess Rising, discusses how her spiritual awakening was catalyzed by grief, her reliance on Shadow Work and holistic methods to uncover the root source of her pain, and her mission to empower women to restore their nervous systems and fully integrate mind, body, and spirit.IN THIS EPISODE, YOU'LL HEAR ABOUT THINGS LIKE:The psychological impact of being raised in a religious cult and a narcissistic family dynamic, and how this environment creates a trauma bond with abusers.How an unexpected, profound grief event can act as a catalyst for a spiritual awakening and force a person to confront years of ignored pain and false beliefs.The significance of finding a partner who can provide a safe space and act as a mirror to reflect trauma-based reactions, enabling the beginning of deep internal healing work.Discovering the root cause of complex PTSD through the surfacing of a repressed memory, and the subsequent healing modalities used, including Shadow Work, Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT/hypnosis), and psychedelic-assisted therapy.Why the nervous system keeps a “score” of trauma, and the holistic approach to retraining it to feel safe, release outdated patterns, and achieve mind-body-spirit integration.The belief that “pain is sacred” and serves as a necessary “fire” to sharpen a person, leading to growth, wisdom, and the ability to pass on generational wisdom instead of trauma.The mission to empower women to reject the “Damsel in Distress” narrative, take back their power from patriarchal messaging, and stop chasing love to finally “come home to themselves.”WATCH ON YOUTUBE: From Religious Cult Trauma to Radical Self-Reclamation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sudOhBApr8s&list=PL7judgDzhkAWmfyB5r5WgFD6ahombBvoh

Do you ever wonder if the quietest voice in the room can truly lead—and win—in a world built for extroverts? This episode of Do Good to Lead Well is a refreshing, insightful journey into that very question, as I sit down with Benjamin Friedman, author of “Silent Strength: The Introvert's Guide to Building Successful Startups.”The conversation opens with Benjamin's “me-search;” his personal and professional quest to understand how introverts can succeed when the business world often favors extroverted traits. Can an introvert be authentic and ambitious, all while driving top-tier results? Absolutely, says Benjamin, but it's all about leveraging your way of being, rather than trying to fit someone else's mold.Listeners will come away with practical advice for managing meetings, leveraging networks, and navigating self-doubt. He also shares tools for raising our self-awareness, the power of a “challenge network,” and the importance of aligning values with the people you build alongside. When fear or imposter syndrome strikes, Friedman reframes those moments as evidence you care and offers ways to harness uncertainty as fuel for growth.The common thread throughout this episode is one of curiosity and vulnerability. It is about questioning our assumptions and beliefs while building a roadmap to authentic success.

What if the way we approach mental health is quietly making things worse? Psychiatrist and psychotherapist Sami Timimi joins Michael Shermer to examine some of the core assumptions behind modern psychiatry. Why have diagnoses such as ADHD, autism, anxiety, and depression expanded so dramatically—and why hasn't increased access to treatment led to better outcomes at the population level? Timimi describes how diagnostic categories have broadened over time and questions whether psychiatric labels function in the same way as medical diagnoses elsewhere in healthcare. Without clear biological markers, he argues, definitions can expand to include forms of distress that were once considered part of ordinary human experience. The conversation also considers the role of meaning, identity, and culture in shaping how people understand psychological suffering. Timimi reflects on the limits of medication and therapy, the unintended consequences of the "mental illness as physical illness" model, and how social media may contribute to the spread and reinforcement of certain diagnostic categories. Dr. Sami Timimi is a child and adolescent psychiatrist, psychotherapist, and Fellow of the Royal College of Psychiatrists. He has published more than 150 academic papers and authored or edited over a dozen books, including Naughty Boys, Liberatory Psychiatry, and The Myth of Autism. His new book is Searching for Normal: A New Approach to Understanding Mental Health, Distress, and Neurodiversity.

Today’s Bible Verse: "He brought me out into a spacious place; he rescued me because he delighted in me." — Psalm 18:19 Psalm 18:19 reminds us that God’s rescue is not only about deliverance from danger—it’s about being brought into freedom and security, rooted in His love. David celebrates that God doesn’t just save His people out of obligation; He saves because He delights in them. “Want to listen without ads?

Purpose of the Interview To showcase Sharise Nance’s mission in mental health advocacy, entrepreneurship, and workplace wellness. To discuss her companies: Hand in Hand Counseling Services – addressing mental health disparities in Black communities. Vitamin C Healing – building trauma-sensitive, wellness-centered workplace cultures. To educate on stress, burnout, compassion fatigue, and financial equity in the mental health field. Key Takeaways Hand in Hand Counseling Services Founded with college roommate Tess Kenny in Pittsburgh. Created a safe space for mental health support in underserved communities. Celebrating 12 years in operation. Breaking Mental Health Stigma Built trust through community presence and transparency. Advocated therapy as normal: “I’m a therapist who has a therapist.” Education on what therapy is and isn’t. Understanding Stress Eustress (positive stress) vs. Distress (overwhelming stress). Physical signs: sweating, rapid heartbeat, tense shoulders, jaw clenching. Stress can lead to depression and anxiety—seek professional help. Impact of COVID-19 Isolation amplified mental health issues. Introduced concept of co-regulation—healing through community and connection. Vitamin C Healing Originated from her book Vitamin C Healing for the Mind, Body. Evolved into a brand offering workshops, consultations, and burnout assessments.
