Podcasts about Dreaming

Watching the news has been especially horrifying lately. We're drowning in video of armed, masked ice agents charging into neighborhoods, refusing to identify themselves, snatching up our neighbors, and the next thing you know they've been deported to terrible prisons in other countries, deprived of due process, and at the mercy of a government that is refusing to follow orders of federal courts. Cristina Jimenez knows that fear, and also knows how to fight back. She is the co-founder of United We Dream, the largest immigrant youth-led organization in the country, and the author of the new book “Dreaming of Home."

Cultivation of spiritual gifts for the life of the church and the community. This is the grand ending to John's dream. John here is imagining in binaries: the forces of good and the forces of evil. Everyone who hears his message is invited by Jesus to “come,” partake in the water of life. What was it for John who had been the subject of imperial subjugation to imagine himself a free agent, able to discern what was the will of God? What was it for John and his faith community to think of themselves as followers of Jesus, their fellow tormented, persecuted, subjugated one? What is it for us to think of ourselves as free agents, capable of discerning the will of God? John's call is a call into community (wash your robes, enter the city) in order to practice the ways of Jesus (how we welcome, resist, heal) and testify to his immanent return (rather than living as though the powers of the world are immanent, the reign of God is imminent). John, from the midst of the hardship and loneliness he is enduring, from the midst of wondering where God is, imagines God's life and healing power flowing from out of Gods' own self, always accessible; he likewise imagines all of God's people working in service of this God, always having all that they need. He imagines a tree that provides peace among nations. What was it for John to dream of coming to God for all that is needed, and for it to be easily accessible, at a time when God might have seemed silent? For it to be easy to access all that is from God, including life and world peace? What is it for us to conceive of a God of abundant life who actively provides for the healing of this world, accessible to us as we serve God? What is it for us to attend gatherings of the church with this vision?In this dream, John, who's clearly been through hardship, imagines a situation in which the Lamb, the not-powerful, peaceful, gentle one, shepherds those who have suffered. What was it for John (possibly a refugee?) to witness a divine community in which everyone had everything they needed? What was it for John to imagine the one who had suffered (the Lamb) as the caregiver for the ones who suffer? What does this do to hierarchy? What is it today for the tormented and suffering to wear their suffering as robes for all to see— and allow themselves to be comforted and cared for in community? Or for those who have suffered to provide that community for others?To tell us your thoughts on this sermon, click through to the web posting and leave us a comment.

How Not To Diss The Dream | Mitch Matthews What happens when high achievers stop dreaming? In this episode, Mitch Matthews—speaker, coach, and host of the Dream Think Do podcast—shares why reconnecting with your dreams isn't optional, it's essential. From navigating career pivots to understanding the neuroscience behind our emotions, Mitch unpacks how small experiments, emotional honesty, and defining your “why” are key to building momentum and real growth. This isn't about lofty ideas—it's about taking actionable steps to make dreams real. From Burnout to Breakthrough Mitch reveals how the dream was once “kicked out” of him—and why that's more common than you'd think. Together, we explore how experiences, not just ambitions, can bring clarity, and why emotional indicators shouldn't be ignored. This episode isn't just a pep talk. It's a practical roadmap for anyone who wants to stop stalling and start moving.

Welcome, welcome, welcome to the Distraction Pieces Podcast with Scroobius Pip!This week Pip is joined by one of the greats... it's BENICIO DEL TORO!"I'm a FAN!" proclaims Benicio at various points in this lovely catch up with Pip, and it's so heartening to hear. Not that anyone ever expected him to be anything less than awesome, but this is actually quite a rare appearance from someone evidently beloved by those involved in cinema and those who view the films alike. While a quick Google search will bring up a bunch of films he's been in and you wlll love, you could just do an old fashioned analogue mind search and come up with something equally quick, as everyone will have one. BDT is in town and on the promo trail for the new Wes Anderson joint 'The Phoenician Scheme' in which he plays a major role, but during this episode you'll also hear about that road up to it including everything along the way. How he fit so much into such a short time here we'll never know, but rest assured you'll have a fine time enjoying and discovering his past lives along the actorial path.

Presence, physical and emotional, at gatherings of the church. In this dream, John sees a river that is clear as crystal, and whose water gives life, flowing from the throne where God and the Lamb (Jesus) are. The river flows down the middle of the streets, so it is always accessible, and there is a tree of life whose leaves are medicine that can heal the nations. God's subjects serve God faithfully and bear God's name on their foreheads. God will become their light.John, from the midst of the hardship and loneliness he is enduring, from the midst of wondering where God is, imagines God's life and healing power flowing from out of Gods' own self, always accessible; he likewise imagines all of God's people working in service of this God, always having all that they need.

In this very special episode of Lucid Cafe, I celebrate the long-awaited release of my new book, Raven's Daughter: The Story Keeper. After years of dreaming, writing, and behind-the-scenes work, publication day is finally here.Joining me is my brilliant and hilarious friend Claire Wheeler, who helps me unpack the story, themes, and inspiration behind the book. This is the first time I'm speaking about Raven's Daughter out loud in any real depth, so it's part book talk, part soul share — with a few meandering moments along the way.We explore some of the book's deeper currents, including our complicated relationship with deception, the influence of artificial intelligence, and our growing disconnection from the natural world. Though it's a work of fiction, Raven's Daughter offers an imaginative lens for reflecting on the challenges of our time.In this conversation, Claire and Wendy discuss:The inspiration for Raven's DaughterDeceptionHow do you know what's true?Terror management theoryThe three realities described in the bookThe story's shamanic influenceFor more information about Raven's Daughter or to purchase a copy, visit Three Worlds Press Listen to some absurd and unhelpful nonsense Inside the Box with Claire and Wendy podcastBECOME YOUR OWN SHAMAN Introductory Online Course Visit Wendy's website to learn more about the the Harmonic Egg®  Lucid Cafe episodes by topic  Listen to Lucid Cafe on YouTube  ★ Support this podcast ★

May has always felt sacred to me. It's the bridge between everything I've poured into this school year and the dream that's still unfolding for the next. And if you're listening today feeling like you're doubting, dreaming, or barely holding on… I see you. I've been you. And this episode is for you. When I started my microschool, I didn't have a blueprint—just a calling, a lot of questions, and a deep desire to give students something different. There were moments I didn't think anyone would show up. Moments I wanted to quit. And moments I realized the smallest signs of progress were actually the biggest affirmations. This episode isn't just about my journey—it's about yours. If you're in the early stages of starting a microschool or homeschool hybrid, thinking about leaving the classroom, or just trying to breathe through the overwhelm of leading something meaningful… this message is for you. Inside this episode, I share: Why your first steps—however messy—are the most sacred What to do when fear, comparison, or uncertainty shows up The power of God's faithfulness when your own strength feels like it's running out Practical encouragement if you're just getting started or feeling stuck How to recognize small wins and let them build your belief You'll walk away with: Permission to slow down and reflect A simple action—write a letter to your past or future self Ideas to start your “faith and favor” folder (something that changed my mindset) And most importantly… a reminder that you are not behind. You are building something beautiful. If you're ready to walk this journey with others who truly understand what you're building, I'd love to invite you to join me inside MicroSchool Masterminds. It's the community I wish I had when I started—and it's full of support, strategy, and strong women just like you.

Marie-Mae van Zuilen (1998) is in 2022 afgestudeerd aan de toneelschool in Arnhem. Ze studeerde af met haar voorstelling Dreaming, die werd geselecteerd voor Het Debuut van ViaRudolphi. Voor en tijdens de toneelschool speelde ze in verschillende films en series (Klem, Instinct, Als De Dijken Breken) maar ontwikkelde zich op school ook tot maker. Van 4 tot 8 juni is het theaterconcert De 7 kamers te zien in de Backstage van Theater Bellevue. Marie-Mae onderzoekt in deze voorstelling de omgang met trauma na seksueel misbruik. 

What if I told you... you're dreaming right now? Not just in this moment, but always. What if this entire reality—everything you've ever known, everything you believe to be solid and true—is nothing more than an elaborate dream? Look around you. Can you prove, with absolute certainty, that you're awake? We dismiss them daily—those tiny glitches in our reality. The keys that weren't where you left them. The person you glimpsed who looked exactly like someone you know, but couldn't possibly be there. The word on the tip of your tongue that vanishes the moment you try to speak it. In dreams, we accept impossibilities without question. A door opens to reveal an ocean. We fly without wondering how. We meet people we've never seen who feel intensely familiar. And then there's déjà vu—that uncanny feeling that you've experienced this exact moment before. Science offers explanations: misfiring neurons, memory processing errors. But what if it's something else? What if it's a momentary glitch where you see through the veil, recognizing this moment because you've dreamed it all before?  

If you're wondering what connective tissue could possibly exist between Final Destination Bloodlines and The Muppet Movie,  consider this: Jordan's talking with the former film's directors, who are feeling seen by Kermit the Frog. Since this conversation, those directors have seen their first ever studio feature film become #1 at the box office, have the best ever opening in the FD franchise (by a mile) AND the biggest R-rated horror opening of the decade. Talk about dreams coming true...can we get these guys their Standard Rich & Famous Contract yet?Jordan also has one quick thing about an upcoming miniseries that brings the story of Hawaiian unification to AppleTV+.***With Jordan Crucchiola, Zach Lipovsky, & Adam Stein Feeling Seen is hosted by Jordan Crucchiola and is a production Maximum Fun.Need more Feeling Seen?

According to a study published in Dreaming journal in 2022, between 50% and 75% of adults have experienced a recurring dream at least once. These tend to be negatively toned, with some common examples including falling into thin air, finding oneself naked, losing one's teeth or failing an exam. And how often a recurring dream recurs really varies from person to person. According to CNN: “recurring dreams don't always happen in close proximity to each other — they can pop up multiple times per month or years apart”. Are there any common patterns in recurring dreams? What does it really mean to dream about the same thing over and over? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!

They share powerful stories of resilience, moments that inspired them to pursue their careers, and the emotional impact of constantly proving their worth in environments where they are often the only Black voices in the room.>>‘The Only One'—But Not Alone: Black Nurses on Overcoming Bias, Finding Support & GrowthJoin them for an honest discussion about the importance of community support, the power of authentic self-expression, and the critical need for systemic change to create a more inclusive and supportive nursing profession.Jump Ahead to Listen: [01:18] Being Black in nursing.[06:17] Representation of Black nurses.[12:00] Importance of representation in healthcare.[12:38] Location-based experiences in nursing.[16:52] Racial disparities in healthcare careers.[20:50] Support organizations for nurses.[24:54] Code switching in professional settings.[31:14] Authenticity in professional environments.[35:16] Dreaming about others' wins.Connect with the hosts on social media:LinkedIn: Ama, Casey, Everett Instagram: @criticalcarecasey, @the_paramurse, @traviuskeandricTikTok: @criticalcarecasey, @the_paramurse, @traviuskeandricFor more information, full transcript and videos visit Nurse.org/podcastJoin our newsletter at nurse.org/joinInstagram: @nurse_orgTikTok: @nurse.orgFacebook: @nurse.orgYouTube: Nurse.org

This is a personal Entry. It's a bit of a ramble so be forewarned. I just wanted to share some updates and give glory to God.

Discernment for our next steps together. In this dream, John imagines God and God's people forever united. The imagery involves a bride/groom and a new city, with “beautiful” used as a descriptor. God in this vision erases death, mourning, crying, pain, and also tenderly wipes tears out of eyes. This is God making everything new; the old order that felt so impossible to unravel or escape from, that felt so impossible to repair or untangle, is subverted with finality. What is it to dream of such a fixed finality of perfection and beauty from a place of hopelessness, chaos, victimization, marginalization, and powerlessness? What is it for us to dream concretely about what God getting everything God wants looks like (not just temporary relief but a future fully and finally made new)?In this dream, John, who's clearly been through hardship, imagines a situation in which the Lamb, the not-powerful, peaceful, gentle one, shepherds those who have suffered. What was it for John (possibly a refugee?) to witness a divine community in which everyone had everything they needed? What was it for John to imagine the one who had suffered (the Lamb) as the caregiver for the ones who suffer? What does this do to hierarchy? What is it today for the tormented and suffering to wear their suffering as robes for all to see— and allow themselves to be comforted and cared for in community? Or for those who have suffered to provide that community for others?To tell us your thoughts on this sermon, click through to the web posting and leave us a comment.

Welcome back to the BE ENCOURAGED! Podcast. We're halfway through the year, and maybe you're still holding tight to those big dreams you set out to pursue in January… or maybe life has caused them to take a back seat. You might be in what we call “the messy middle”—where the excitement of starting has faded and the finish line feels unclear. Maybe you're dreaming about that someday moment, unsure how all the pieces will come together.If that's you today, you're not alone. And you're in the right place.Our guest today is here to remind us that even in uncertain seasons, we can still choose to believe. Christina B., host of the Dream Lab Podcast, is passionate about helping dreamers like you and me take bold steps of faith—practical, prayerful steps—that bring what's inside our hearts out into the world.She'll encourage us to trust God with every part of the journey—especially the uncomfortable parts—and to surround ourselves with praying encouragers who remind us that slow progress is still progress. Even when it feels like we're moving at a snail's pace, God is at work.Christina also reminds us of something powerful: the gift of today. Being present in the moment is where peace and clarity often meet us. She encourages us to listen to our bodies, to honor the resting rhythms our soul, body, and mind need—so we don't burn out before the dream even gets off the ground.She challenges us to step outside our comfort zones—not to strive harder, but to depend more deeply on the One who calls us forward. As she puts it, God's the one who called us out of the boat in the first place.I'll leave you with this quote from 20th-century poet Lilias Trotter, who wrote:“Take the very hardest thing in your life—the place of difficulty, outward or inward—and expect God to triumph gloriously in that very spot. Just there—He can bring your soul into bloom.”Take a breath, settle in, and get ready to be encouraged.

Dreaming of writing a book but have no idea where to start? You're not alone. In this eye-opening conversation with book coach Allison Lane, we dive deep into the realities of publishing that most aspiring authors never learn until it's too late.Allison, whose impressive career spans from dressing as a burrito for PR stunts to leading communications for brands like Pepsi, Unilever, and Burt's Bees, shatters common misconceptions about the publishing journey. Her most surprising revelation? "Don't write your whole book! Nobody wants to read your manuscript." What publishers actually want is a business plan for your book, proving you understand its market potential and your role in making it successful.With trademark candor and humor, Allison explains how the publishing world really works. Traditional publishers require agents and pay advances (which she advises keeping modest), hybrid publishers offer more partnership opportunities, and self-publishing gives complete control at the cost of handling everything yourself. But regardless of path, one truth remains: you must be ready to market yourself and your book.The conversation takes a fascinating turn when Allison discusses personal branding. Contrary to popular belief, your book doesn't create your personal brand, your established expertise should come first. "You cannot emerge from a hole in the ground with a book," she warns. Instead, she advises building visibility in your field through speaking, media contributions, and online presence before approaching publishers.Whether you're a corporate professional looking to expand your influence, an entrepreneur wanting to showcase your expertise, or simply someone with valuable knowledge to share, this episode provides the insider perspective needed to approach publishing strategically and successfully. Allison's practical advice on everything from book proposals to AI tools for content creation will save you years of frustration and dramatically increase your chances of publishing success.Enjoy the show.  Please leave us a review.ResourcesLaneLit.com Allison's LinkedIn Profile Learn more about AnitaB.org Support the showWhen you subscribe to the podcast, you are supporting our work's mission, allowing us to continue highlighting successful women in a variety of careers to inspire others helping pay our wonderful editor, Chris, and helping me in paying our hosting expenses.
