If you've ever brushed off your birthday or tried to convince yourself it's “just another day,” this episode is going to make your Inner Child feel deeply seen! Because the real reason you downplay your birthday has nothing to do with age…and everything to do with guarding your heart. Behind every “I don't need anything” is a younger you who once felt unseen, forgotten, or overshadowed. And your protective ego learned to shrink your desires before disappointment could show up. In this eye-opening episode, Tami unpacks the childhood wounds that shape how we feel about birthdays—unmet expectations, sibling comparison, the guilt of wanting anything at all, and the emotional disconnect created by busy or overwhelmed parents. She shares personal stories, real-time revelations, and practical tools to reconnect with your Inner Child, understand your love languages, and rewrite the narrative around celebration and receiving. You'll explore: Why adults dismiss their birthdays How childhood wounds impact self-worth Why your Inner Child still craves acknowledgment How love languages shape your birthday experience The guilt around wanting gifts, time, or attention Why emotional presence matters more than the party How to finally let yourself be celebrated Your birthday isn't just another day. It's the day God sent you here. And your Inner Child deserves to feel seen, loved, and celebrated. Tune in and start rewriting your birthday story.

Dave and Lefko discuss whether the Seahawks are downplaying the importance of their week eleven matchup against the Rams, they look at the alarming new name on the Seahawks lengthy injury report, they break down what the Seahawks offense needs to do to put pressure on Matthew Stafford and the Rams offense, and they make their final predictions for the AL MVP race between Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh and Yankees Right Fielder Aaron Judge.
Have you ever noticed how quickly you brush off something that was actually really hard? This instinct to minimize difficulty might seem harmless, but it shapes how connected you feel to yourself and how honestly you experience your life. In this episode, I explore the habit of minimizing difficulties: why we dismiss or dilute how challenging something was after it's over and how this pattern disconnects us from ourselves. Whether it's downplaying a tough day or pretending a painful experience was "fine," this habit can quietly erode self-trust and emotional awareness. You'll learn how to recognize when you're glossing over your real experience and what changes when you start telling the truth about what was hard.

It doesn't sound like Pat Narduzzi is taking this matchup against Notre Dame very seriously, saying he doesn't care if they lose the game by 100 points, as long as they win the final 2 (against Georgia Tech and Miami). Why does it feel like the fans care more than the head coach? Is Narduzzi just doing a bit here in his downplay of the Fighting Irish? The guys wondered how Pitt's season could be rattled if they do get killed by Notre Dame on Saturday. Poni is worried about Desmond Reid being held out if Pat doesn't see it as a big game. How are Pitt fans feeling going into the Notre Dame game? Is this the biggest game Pat Narduzzi has coached in Pittsburgh? Mike Florio from Pro Football Talk joined the show. Mike puts a low percentage on a Mike Tomlin trade because it would require Tomlin's want to do it, but also because the Steelers take such pride in only have 3 coaches in 50+ years. Mike said there will always be a team out there that is interested in having what the Steelers always have – being in playoff contention every year. Mike expects Tomlin to always have options, but doesn't think it would be half of the league bowing down to have his services. Are the Giants an attractive job with Jaxson Dart at QB? Mike doesn't sense any appetite in the Steelers to make a change. Jakobi Meyers is the only WR Mike heard the Steelers were in on at the deadline. Mike was confused by Tomlin saying it wasn't an ‘off night' for Aaron Rodgers, but not being concerned about his long-term performance. The guys caught Mike by surprise when they brought up the New York Post story regarding his wife and how the Steelers' wives/girlfriends have no proof of her existence. Mike said Asante Samuel Jr. was in-demand around the league and credited the Steelers for making a low-risk move.

In a recent Wall Street Journal interview, Bill Gates revisited his controversial relationship with Jeffrey Epstein, acknowledging that meeting with the convicted sex offender was "a huge mistake." However, Gates's admission of “foolishness” rings hollow to critics, who question why such a highly intelligent and influential figure would repeatedly associate with Epstein, even after his criminal history was publicly known. Gates claimed he engaged with Epstein in hopes of advancing global health philanthropy, yet no tangible benefits emerged from these meetings, raising concerns about his judgment and motivations. Critics argue that Gates's wealth and power afforded him ample resources to explore other philanthropic avenues without involving a figure as toxic as Epstein.Additionally, Gates's attempts to downplay the personal fallout from his ties to Epstein invite further skepticism. Reports suggest that Epstein tried to exploit their acquaintance by threatening to expose an alleged affair involving Gates, adding a layer of complexity to the narrative. Gates's repeated meetings with Epstein—despite his then-wife Melinda French Gates expressing discomfort—cast doubt on his sincerity and decision-making. His efforts to frame the relationship as a lapse in judgment fail to address the broader implications of why someone in his position would disregard ethical concerns for potential personal or professional gain. This relationship has left a lingering stain on Gates's reputation, with critics questioning whether his contrition comes from genuine regret or the need to repair his public image.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Bill Gates Addresses His Friendship with Sex Offender Jeffrey Epstein: ‘I Was Foolish'Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

A newly issued report from the Cultural Research Center at Arizona Christian University reveals striking contradictions and confusion in how Americans view sin, its causes, and its consequences, explains Dr. George Barna to Alex Newman on The Sentinel Report. While four out of five U.S. adults say they believe in the existence of sin, far fewer believe all people sin—and even fewer admit that they, personally, are sinners. The study concludes that only one out of seven adults (14%) holds a consistently biblical view of sin. Additionally, on this episode, Oklahoma Senator Shane Jett and Representative Gabe Woolley report that children are literally being kidnapped by the Department of Human Services because parents are seeking alternative methods of care for illnesses. Finally, the director of the Government Accountability Institute, Seamus Bruner, joins Newman to discuss how Antifa is a highly funded criminal organization and what President Trump must do to combat them.

In this podcast episode, Dr. Michael Thiessen, Pastor Nate Wright, and Dr. Joe Boot discuss the implications of Charlie Kirk's death and the church's response to it. They express concern over the reluctance of many church leaders to acknowledge Kirk's martyrdom and the broader cultural implications of this silence. The conversation delves into the truncation of the gospel, the political nature of the Christian message, and the need for the church to engage with cultural issues rather than retreating into silence. They emphasize the importance of recognizing the gospel as a transformative force in society and the necessity of addressing violence and injustice from a biblical perspective.

In this conversation, we close the villain series with the Invisible Destroyer—also known as The Nothing from The NeverEnding Story. This archetype represents the paralysis of possibility, where imagination and inspiration remain ungrounded, slowly eroding both the self and those around it. We explore how this villain shows up as addiction, avoidance, and endless questioning, and how its transformation into the Architect brings creativity into embodied form. Along the way, we unpack how this arc blends qualities of the Enneagram 5 and 6, why Radiohead may be its unofficial soundtrack, and what it really takes to move from disappearing into inertia to choosing life, creation, and presence. We close with a vivid “Am I the Asshole?” example that grounds these themes in relationship dynamics.Timestamps00:00 — Welcome, final villain in the series00:15 — Invisible Destroyer, aka The Nothing00:30 — Archetypal map: Enneagram 9, head center, separation wound, house of addiction01:20 — Why it feels like “a combo of the 5 and 6”: evasive expert + divisive immortal01:45 — The NeverEnding Story and the Nothing as lack of human attention and imagination03:00 — Paralyzed by possibility: endless questions without action04:10 — The wake of destruction from inaction and addiction04:40 — Successful Antagonist: The Questioner, delaying decisions forever06:10 — Wounded Child: The Overwhelmed, never big enough to handle life07:00 — Covert Form: The Addict, disappearing through escapism08:10 — Hero: The Embodied, choosing incarnation, creation, and presence (with pleasure as a pathway)09:20 — Legend: The Architect, building grounded worlds from imagination10:00 — Why this arc belongs at the end of the villain cycle: outward, complex, foundational10:45 — Real-life dynamics: undervaluing presence and its destructive impact on relationships11:30 — AITA case study: birthday dinner, avoidance, blocking, and the Nothing's invisibility wound13:30 — Radiohead soundtrack: How to Disappear Completely, Lotus Flower, and the addictive undertones of disappearing17:00 — Closing thoughts: start with villains 1–6 before tackling the complexity of 7–9The arc at a glancePinnacle Villain: Invisible Destroyer (The Nothing) — Inspiration ungrounded, inertia that consumes.Successful Antagonist: The Questioner — Delays action indefinitely by demanding more certainty.Wounded Child: The Overwhelmed — Believes they can never be big enough to handle life.Covert Form: The Addict — Escapes through substances or compulsions, invisibly eroding relationships.Hero: The Embodied — Chooses presence, incarnation, creativity, and embodied pleasure.Legend: The Architect — Builds tangible worlds from imagination and dreams.Key ideas and languageThe Nothing: Inaction as destruction; the void left when imagination is unused.Addiction as covert destruction: Disappearing through self-harm, leaving collateral damage.Paralysis of possibility: Asking without acting, researching without deciding.Presence as medicine: Recognizing that showing up, even imperfectly, matters.Imagination grounded: Dreams are valuable only when incarnated into lived form.Practices for listenersPleasure as embodimentUse sexual or sensual pleasure as a direct route into your body.Notice how aliveness shifts when you commit to being present in sensation.The small action rulePick one tiny step toward creation daily, even if imperfect.Doing badly is better than not doing at all.Name the overwhelmWrite down three things you cannot do right now.Then choose one thing you can do and act on it.Reclaim visibilityAsk yourself: “Where am I pretending my presence doesn't matter?”Practice showing up where you assume no one cares.Case study insightsBirthday dinner scenario: Downplaying one's presence leads to relational collapse.

On this episode of the Chuck ToddCast, Chuck unpacks a whirlwind of economic, geopolitical, and political developments shaping America's future. From Trump's tariffs likely surviving a fast-tracked Supreme Court review to rising fears of stagflation fueled by deportations and trade headwinds, the economic outlook is looking grim. Abroad, Russia escalates the war by sending drones into Polish airspace, while Israel's strike on Hamas in Qatar risks leaving it more isolated on the world stage. Back home, Trump once again rewrites reality, denying ties to Jeffrey Epstein as his allies echo the talking points — raising fresh parallels to Orwell's 1984.Chuck also looks ahead to the Democratic Party's long-term challenges: how can they remain competitive nationally by 2032, when the current path to 270 electoral votes is likely gone? With Georgia and North Carolina emerging as decisive swing states, Democrats will need to expand their map and rethink their message — particularly as the “socialism” label remains toxic to southern voters.Then, political strategist and K-Street veteran Bruce Mehlman joins Chuck to unpack how politics, media, and business have collided in the Trump era and beyond. From the days when three television networks shaped a shared national narrative to today's fractured landscape of Substack newsletters, podcasts, and hyper-partisan social feeds, Mehlman and Chuck explore how the internet broke traditional politics. They dive into how Washington has become a magnet for American business titans, the sky-high costs of lobbying access to President Trump, and whether bipartisan firms can even survive in the current climate.The conversation then widens to the global stage, connecting the 2008 financial crisis to the populist revolts of Brexit and Trump, and questioning whether the public underestimates just how much globalization has improved daily life. From Trump's reliance on tariffs to the reality-versus-perception debate over crime, immigration, and the economy, Mehlman outlines the policy flashpoints that will shape 2024 and beyond.

Political strategist and K-Street veteran Bruce Mehlman joins Chuck Todd to unpack how politics, media, and business have collided in the Trump era and beyond. From the days when three television networks shaped a shared national narrative to today's fractured landscape of Substack newsletters, podcasts, and hyper-partisan social feeds, Mehlman and Chuck explore how the internet broke traditional politics. They dive into how Washington has become a magnet for American business titans, the sky-high costs of lobbying access to President Trump, and whether bipartisan firms can even survive in the current climate.The conversation then widens to the global stage, connecting the 2008 financial crisis to the populist revolts of Brexit and Trump, and questioning whether the public underestimates just how much globalization has improved daily life. From Trump's reliance on tariffs to the reality-versus-perception debate over crime, immigration, and the economy, Mehlman outlines the policy flashpoints that will shape 2024 and beyond.

One of the most contentious debates in show history following Solana downplaying the loss of Jason Sanders for the first month of the Miami Dolphins season.
Today, I'm talking about a pattern that's silently robbing high-achieving Black women of money, joy, and energy: self-abandonment. What is Self-Abandonment? Self-abandonment happens when you leave yourself emotionally, mentally, or physically to secure someone else's comfort, approval, or validation. It's when you side with others over yourself. We do this because somewhere along the line, we learned being fully ourselves wasn't safe. For Black women, this is compounded by generations of being told our bodies, voices, and desires needed to be managed to avoid backlash. 5 Signs You're Abandoning Yourself: You override your "no" - Agreeing to things that make you dread your calendar You need a "good reason" to rest - Otherwise, you feel guilty You shrink your joy - Speaking less, dimming your shine, or even stopping yourself from laughing You defer your decisions - Letting others decide for you, even on things that deeply impact you You gaslight yourself - Downplaying your needs or telling yourself you're overreacting The Cost Is Too High Studies show: The APA found that suppressing authentic self-expression is linked to higher cortisol and inflammation levels Harvard Business Review reports Black women face the steepest emotional tax in professional settings, leading to earlier burnout Chronic self-abandonment is associated with higher rates of depression, anxiety, and stress-related illness For high earners, this shows up as: Emotional: Loss of self-trust, chronic resentment, burnout Physical: Sleep disruption, weight fluctuations, immune issues, hypertension Relationship: Surface-level connections, resentment in partnerships The Path Forward Ask yourself: "What would I choose if I didn't need anyone's approval?"

The Uplift app is here! Try it free for 30 days. Do you know what's quietly stealing your joy, keeping you small, and making sure everyone else's needs come first, while yours barely make the list? Being low maintenance. Yep, I said it. Somewhere along the way, we got the message: don't ask for much, don't rock the boat, and definitely don't be “difficult.” But let's get real—that's not a virtue. That's a survival strategy we learned to keep the peace, and it's keeping us stuck. Today, I'm calling it out. If you've ever said, “No worries, whatever works!” when it absolutely did not work, or if you've ever ignored that little voice in your head telling you what you actually want, it's time to break free. You're not “too much.” You're not “demanding.” You're a human with real wants and needs, and you deserve to own them, without apology.

This week, it's us. Mike and Bill, just keeping it simple.Mike started out with his reading and it was about what we do when no one is looking and the fact that "we are only as sick as our secrets." We can all act decent for an hour at a meeting, but what about the rest of the time? It was a good conversation.We shared some messages from a couple of listeners, and one of them was from a buddy of ours in Cleveland who is an avid listener, and we had no idea. We also chatted about our upcoming upcoming guests; a priest and a Sober Curator.Then it was one day at a time, balance, the feeling or the need to help others, avoiding strangers, driving through creeks, a Foo firing and Henry Winkler.We also read a couple of articles that were fun and interesting. Downplaying your birthday and signs that men have lost their joy in life. We had a few laughs.Enjoy the episode.Visit usPodcast www.sobernotmature.comStore www.sobernotmatureshop.comHobo www.themoderndayhobo.com

Happy Monday girlies! Missed you so much last week, and I'm glad to be back ❤️ Today's episode is about downplaying our calling. How many times have you dismissed your assignment from God because you thought it wasn't a big deal? How often have you let doubt, pride, or fear convince you that what God asked you to do doesn't matter? Too often, we minimize our calling, forgetting that God placed this assignment on our lives for a reason. The things he is asking us to do are important and should be treated as such. Listen as we discuss the importance of showing up even when we don't feel like it, how our obedience impacts others, and five practical steps to push past doubt and fully embrace what God has called us to do.

Dr. Mark Miravalle discusses the Vatican's new guidelines on evaluating Marian apparitions, highlighting a significant shift in authority from local bishops to the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith (DDF). Dr. Miravalle expresses concerns that this centralization may undermine the principle of subsidiarity and distance the faithful from vital spiritual phenomena. He emphasizes the crucial role of Marian apparitions in guiding the faithful, especially in times of crisis, and questions whether this change might weaken the Church's connection with its followers when divine guidance is most needed.Download the all-new LSNTV App now, available on iPhone and Android!LSNTV Apple Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/lsntv/id6469105564 LSNTV Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lifesitenews.app ****SHOP ALL YOUR FUN AND FAVORITE LIFESITE MERCH! https://shop.lifesitenews.com/ +++Connect with John-Henry Westen and all of LifeSiteNews on social media:LifeSite: https://linktr.ee/lifesitenews John-Henry Westen: https://linktr.ee/jhwesten Hosted on Acast.
