How Do We Shape Future Generations Well?   Nancy French returns to The Good Faith Podcast with host Curtis Chang for a heartfelt, funny, and surprisingly practical conversation about how grandparenting reshapes your view of hope, kids and screens, grief, and what's worth doing with the time you have—even is that just means "robbing a bank with a Barbie." This conversation isn't just for grandparents: it's for anyone mentoring, parenting, teaching, or influencing the next generation, with practical wisdom on choosing connection, naming loss honestly, and creating space for kids to grow "analog" and resilient. Nancy also explains why legacy and being remembered aren't the point—what matters is faithfully loving the people in front of you and passing on stability, courage, and hope that outlasts you.   02:05 - Why Did Nancy Choose a Year as Primary Caregiver To Her Grandpkids? 07:44 - No screens and the value of analog, imaginative play. 13:15 - Preserving Children's Natural Hope  14:26 - Navigating Difficult Topics with Children  17:14 - The Value of Letting Children Experience Loss  23:09 - Creativity and Storytelling with Grandchildren  25:51 - Introducing Real-World Conflicts in Play  29:19 - Grandparents as Links to Family Legacy  34:53 - George Eliot: The Value of Unremembered Acts  36:18 - Living with Cancer and Embracing the Present  42:30 - Grandparenting from a Distance  45:27 - Encouragement to Focus on fun, connection, and Presence Rather Than Legacy   Episode Companion: A Guide for Grandparents & All Those Influencing The Next Generation   Mentioned In This Episode: Demographic research: Grandchildren's spatial proximity to grandparents and intergenerational support in the United States Jennifer F.

In this episode of Partnering Leadership, Mahan Tavakoli speaks with Dr. Bernard Harris, a leader whose extraordinary career trajectory—from physician to NASA astronaut to CEO and venture capitalist—offers rare insights into the inner work of leadership. Dr. Harris is the first African American to walk in space, and the author of Embracing Infinite Possibilities: Letting Go of Fear to Find Your Highest Potential. His unique vantage point, shaped by science, space exploration, and C-suite leadership, gives him an extraordinary lens on what really limits potential—not just for individuals, but for teams and entire organizations.This is not a conversation about space missions. It's a candid exploration of the hidden forces that hold even the most accomplished leaders back. Dr. Harris shares how fear, false identity, and overachievement can become barriers disguised as success—and how leaders can finally begin to let go. With disarming honesty, he recounts how constant validation once drove his every move, and how shedding that need was key to unlocking deeper effectiveness and personal alignment.What makes this episode essential for executive listeners is not just the personal story—it's the direct application to business and leadership contexts. Dr. Harris talks about leading teams under pressure, confronting blind spots in senior leadership, and what it really takes to receive feedback at the top. His reflections offer a masterclass in self-awareness and intentional leadership, especially for those navigating high-stakes roles where perception often replaces truth.Whether you're leading a company, serving on a board, or mentoring the next generation of executives, this episode will challenge you to rethink how you define success, strength, and growth. The conversation isn't about doing more—it's about uncovering what's driving your decisions, and whether it's truly aligned with your values and long-term vision.Actionable Takeaways:You'll learn how Dr. Harris overcame fear—not through toughness, but by reframing what failure really means for leaders.Hear how overachievement can be a trap, even when it's applauded—especially for those in senior roles.Discover why most CEOs stop getting meaningful feedback—and what to do to get the truth back on the table.Explore the performance identity leaders develop—and how it can silently limit their ability to lead authentically.Find out what happened when Dr. Harris was told by his team: “You're a micromanager”—and what he did next.Learn why self-awareness is a strategic advantage, not just a personal virtue.Hear Dr. Harris describe how he applies the same mindset that got him into space to running businesses and investing.Explore how internal versus external drivers shape leadership clarity—and how to regain control of your narrative.Understand how success, when unchecked, can become an armor that distances leaders from their teams.Connect with Dr. Bernard HarrisBernard Harris LinkedIn Embracing Infinite Possiblities Connect with Mahan Tavakoli: Mahan Tavakoli Website Mahan Tavakoli on LinkedIn Partnering Leadership Website

In this special Mindfulness in Action episode, I'm sharing a very personal reflection from the trails of Squamish, BC where muddy puddles, forest quiet, and time on the bike create space for clarity.For the first time in over 22 years, I've made the decision to step away from competitive bike racing. Not because I can't race, but because my life, priorities, and sense of fulfillment have shifted.In this off-the-cuff, honest conversation, I reflect on what it means to let go of an identity you've held for decades, how task-focused mindfulness has shaped my thinking, and why courage sometimes looks like choosing less instead of more.This episode isn't just about sport. It's about transitions, motivation, family, mattering, and learning to listen to yourself when something inside is asking for change.If you're navigating a transition, feeling stretched thin, or questioning what really matters in this next season of your life, I hope this episode helps you slow down, reflect, and reconnect with what's true for you.Top 5 TakeawaysMindfulness isn't passive, it's active presence. Being fully engaged in the task at hand (not self-evaluation) can unlock clarity and joy.Identity transitions are uncomfortable, but necessary. Letting go of who you've been creates space for who you're becoming.Motivation changes with life seasons. What once fueled you may no longer fit, and that's not failure.Doing less can be a powerful choice. Fulfillment doesn't always come from pushing harder or doing more.Reflection reveals values. Emotions like envy, fatigue, or resistance often point toward what truly matters.Other Mindfulness in Action Episodes:- Slowing Down the Rush- How to Regulate Your Emotions for Resilience and Performance- How to Combat Self-Criticism--------------The Grow the Good Podcast is produced by Palm Tree Pod Co.

“Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing! . . .” — Isaiah 43:18-19 Change has a way of making us feel uneasy. It often comes with the uncertainty of the unknown and the discomfort of moving away from what we've always known. I remember a time when I faced a significant change— leaving a job I had held for years. It was a step into uncharted territory—and, if I'm honest, fear gripped my heart. The comfort of familiarity had a strong pull on me. But I've learned something valuable over the years: God doesn't just call us to new things; he prepares us for them. In Isaiah 43:18-19, God calls us to let go of the past and recognize that he is always doing something new. God promises to make a way for us in the wilderness and to provide streams in the wasteland. Though the path may seem unclear, God is already at work before we even realize it, and he has our best interests in mind. Embracing change isn't always easy, but it is always good when we trust that God is leading us. We don't have to have all the answers, because God holds the future. When we lean into his promises, we can take that next step in faith, knowing that God is with us in every change. God, help me to trust you in all the things you are doing in my life. Give me the strength to let go of what is familiar and to embrace the new things you have for me to do. In Jesus, Amen.

As we say goodbye to 2025, we're reflecting on a year filled with more milestones than we ever imagined. We lift up our friends who are suffering, trusting them to the Lord, knowing that "The Lord is close to the brokenhearted" (Psalm 34:18). Embracing that we are beautifully broken, we allow Christ's light to shine through our wounds, for His power is made perfect in weakness (2 Corinthians 12:9). "A humble soul does not trust itself but places all its confidence in God. God defends the humble soul and lets himself into its secrets, and the soul abides in unsurpassable happiness which no one can comprehend."

Episode 2852: Allison Carmen invites us to rethink the purpose behind our New Year's resolutions by drawing on the selfless wisdom of Amma, the Hugging Saint. Instead of resolutions rooted solely in personal gain, she challenges us to shift our focus toward small acts of service that can profoundly impact others, offering a more meaningful path to growth and fulfillment. Read along with the original article(s) here: http://www.allisoncarmen.com/a-paradigm-shift-in-new-years-resolutions/ Quotes to ponder: "Where there is true love, anything is effortless." "Many of us are licking off the chocolate and only giving up the peanuts just to keep our lives the way they are today." "Maybe we can stop looking at work emails for the sake of efficiency while riding the elevator and instead have a conversation with an elderly neighbor."

Drew and Tim take a hard and honest look at how success is defined in today's church culture. In a world obsessed with numbers—attendance, giving, buildings, and platforms—this episode challenges listeners to ask whether we've borrowed the wrong scorecard. While metrics can be helpful tools, they were never meant to replace the deeper work of God in transformed lives.This conversation contrasts ministry and business, acknowledging that while both may track growth, only one is called to pursue obedience over outcomes. Drew and Tim emphasize that behind every number is a name, a story, and a soul—and that heaven celebrates faithfulness long before it celebrates growth. Churches can be full and still spiritually empty, active yet unchanged, orthodox but lifeless.At the heart of the episode is a simple but piercing truth: success in ministry is obedience to God's calling. Sometimes obedience leads to growth. Sometimes it leads to obscurity. Either way, Jesus—not results—is the goal. Through personal stories, biblical examples, and real-life ministry moments, this episode invites leaders and believers alike to redefine success, resist comparison, and pursue faithfulness over fame. If you've ever wondered whether what you're doing “counts,” this conversation will realign your heart back to what matters most—keeping your eyes on Jesus.Check out our brand-new merch store! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://eyesonjesuspodcast-shop.fourthwall.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Get all our links in one easy place! ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/eyesonjesuspodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Get the Eyes on Jesus 90 Day Discernment Devotional⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://a.co/d/3v8963s⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join our Group on Facebook- Eyes on Jesus podcast community ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/groups/eyesonjesuspodcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Email feedback, questions or show topic ideas to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠eyesonjesuspodcast@outlook.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠For more information on Drew Barker: Follow Drew on ⁠Instagram ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/pastordrewbarker⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Drew's church's website ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://yes.online/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠For more information on Tim Ferrara: ⁠ ⁠ Get all his links in one place- to his social media, all 3 of his books, and more ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/discerning_dad⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

Welcome to another episode of the You Can Call Me “Bossy" podcast. In today's conversation I sit down with powerhouse publicist KJ Blattenbauer, a champion for bold brands and especially female founders. With nearly three decades of PR experience, KJ shares her unapologetic approach to visibility, reframing the word “bossy” as a badge of leadership, credibility, and empowerment rather than an insult. Together, KJ and I dive into the challenges women face around judgment, fear of being “too much,” and the conditioning that encourages us to shrink instead of shining in our ambition. This episode is packed with real talk about embracing your power, the importance of claiming authority, navigating corporate dynamics, and why being your own hype woman is not just okay—it's essential. From stories about corporate America to advice for women wanting to blaze their own path, KJ offers inspiration, tangible strategies, and a big permission slip to be visible and authentic—bossiness and all. If you've ever worried about being called “too bossy,” this conversation will help you see it as your superpower. Let's get into it!

In Adam Sandler's Billy Madison, an immature heir's journey back through grade school becomes a wild, comedic exploration of learning, privilege, and the power of second chances. As Billy stumbles from kindergarten to high school, the film asks: what does it really mean to grow up, and how do our experiences in school shape who we become? And for educators, how can humor, humility, and a willingness to start over help us connect with students—and ourselves—on a deeper level? Through Billy's misadventures, the eccentric cast of teachers and classmates, and the absurd challenges he faces, we see the importance of perseverance, the value of community, and the unexpected lessons that come from embracing failure. The movie reminds us that transformation—whether in a classroom, a school, or a person—often begins with a willingness to be vulnerable, to laugh at ourselves, and to try again. On this first-ever live audience recording of the Better Learning Podcast, host Kevin Stoller is joined by  Brian Schoch and Katelyn Forcucci, along with responses and insights from multiple audience members. Together, they explore what Billy Madison reveals about education, leadership, and the messy, joyful process of learning at any age. Takeaways: Growth in education isn't always linear—sometimes it takes a few detours, mistakes, and a sense of humor to get where we need to go. Privilege and opportunity can shape our educational journeys, but real learning requires humility, effort, and support from others. Teachers and classmates play a crucial role in helping us overcome setbacks and discover our strengths. Embracing failure and starting over can lead to deeper understanding, resilience, and empathy. Laughter and playfulness can break down barriers, build community, and make learning more meaningful for everyone. The live audience's questions and reflections add fresh perspectives, reminding us that learning is a shared, ongoing adventure. Join us for this lively episode as we blend comedy, education, and real-time audience energy to uncover the lessons hidden in Billy Madison's outrageous return to school.

"The only person you're really competing with is who you were yesterday." Preparing for the GMAT isn't supposed to be easy—and that's the point. In the last episode of 2025, GMAC Zach sits down with Stefan Maisnier, longtime GMAT instructor and parter at MyGuru, to unpack why GMAT prep feels so challenging, what skills the exam is actually measuring, and how the mindset you develop while studying can pay dividends far beyond test day. Stefan famously describes GMAT prep as "eating your vegetables"—not always enjoyable, but undeniably good for you. Together, Zach and Stefan explore why productive discomfort leads to real growth, how to reframe negative beliefs about math and reading, and why the GMAT remains a powerful tool for self-improvement in an age of shortcuts and AI. If you're feeling stuck, intimidated, or tempted to avoid the GMAT altogether, this conversation will help you rethink the value of the challenge. What You'll Learn in This Episode: Why the GMAT is designed to feel difficult—and why that's intentional What the exam actually measures (and why it matters for business school and leadership) How GMAT prep builds skills that carry into MBA coursework and professional life Why "I'm not a math person" or "I'm not a reader" is usually a learned belief—not a fact How adaptive testing changes the test-taking experience Why improvement over time can be more compelling than a single high score Realistic timelines and expectations for GMAT prep How to shift from a "this is painful" mindset to a "this is valuable" mindset About MyGuru: For 15 years, MyGuru has provided an unparalleled edge to students worldwide by empowering a team of uniquely qualified subject matter experts to use their individual expertise and experience to provide dynamic real-time instruction rather than boring one-size-fits-all curricula to every client.

Are you chasing every gold star, climbing every ladder, and nailing every "right" mark—only to find yourself missing out on real fulfillment and meaningful connection? The relentless pursuit of achievement can sometimes leave us feeling lonely, disconnected from ourselves, and trapped in relationships that don't truly nourish our hearts. When ambition runs amok, the cost may be far greater than just burnout or missed vacation days—it can lead to self-abandonment and relationships that feel more like a cage than a home. In this episode, you'll discover how overachievement and perfectionism can sabotage our capacity for genuine connection—and what it takes to turn things around. Through honest storytelling and practical insight, the conversation explores the hidden costs of self-abandonment and the steps toward reclaiming self-worth, authenticity, and aligned love. Whether you're feeling the grind of burnout or yearning for more realness in your relationships, you'll gain tools for slowing down, getting honest with yourself, and opening up to relationships that feel like home. Coach Keren Eldad is an Executive Coach, Speaker, podcast host and the Author of the new book: GILDED - Breaking Free from the Cage of Ambition, Perfectionism and the Relentless Pursuit of More.   Episode Highlights 06:18 The roots of self-abandonment: Overachievement and relationship choices. 09:12 Societal pressure and the pursuit of external validation in partner selection. 10:27 Personal story: From self-betrayal to reconstructing identity and worth. 16:07 Building healthy love: The learning curve toward self-connection in relationships. 20:39 Embracing uncertainty: Letting go of control and playing to win in relationships. 26:56 Yellow flags in relationships: Burnout, overfunctioning, and sexless marriages. 31:29 Radical honesty and initiating difficult conversations. 35:51 Centering yourself before addressing relationship issues. 39:54 Tools, coaching, and the path to authentic relationships.   Your Check List of Actions to Take Pause and self-reflect: Practice taking a mindful pause before reacting in relationships to better understand your true feelings and needs. Identify your patterns: Bring awareness to tendencies like overachieving or people-pleasing that may be impacting your connections. Prioritize self-worth: Work on recognizing and affirming your own worth, rather than relying on external validation or achievement. Start small conversations: When something feels off in your relationship, gently broach the subject with curiosity rather than jumping into confrontation. Read for growth: Incorporate reading transformational books by thought leaders to cultivate self-awareness. Seek support: Consider working with a coach or therapist to dig deeper into your personal growth and relationship patterns. Practice radical honesty: Begin being radically honest with yourself about what you want and how you feel, as self-abandonment only perpetuates dissatisfaction. Accept uncertainty: Learn to embrace the unknown in relationships, allowing space for vulnerability and authentic connection rather than controlling outcomes.   Mentioned Gilded: Breaking Free from the Cage of Ambition, Perfectionism, and the Relentless Pursuit of More (*Amazon Affiliate link) (book) Mating in Captivity: Unlocking Erotic Intelligence (*Amazon Affiliate link) (book) The Way of Integrity: Finding the Path to Your True Self *Amazon link (book) Dare to Lead (*Amazon link) (book) Marry Him: The Case for Settling for Mr. Good Enough (*Amazon link) (book) The Work of Byron Katie (website) Brene Brown (website) Eckhart Tolle (website) Ram Dass (website) Louise Hay (website) ERP 494: Designing Love That Lasts: 6 Principles for Lasting Connection — An Interview with Dr. Sara Nasserzadeh ERP 174: How to Experience More Love in Your Relationship with Byron Katie 12 Relationship Principles to Strengthen Your Love (free guide)   Connect with Keren Elded Websites: KerenEldad.com Facebook: facebook.com/LiveWithEnthusiasm?_rdc=1&_rdr# YouTube: youtube.com/channel/UCgGViwGVn_yrHkq3PQ9R_-Q Instagram: instagram.com/coachkeren/?hl=en LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/keren-eldad Podcast: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/coached-with-coach-keren/id1467079024  

Lessons on Humanity, Technology, and Leadership from a Pioneer of Customer Experience  Shep interviews Bruce Temkin, host of Humanity at Scale: Redefining Leadership. He talks about how AI is reshaping business and why human connection remains essential for both customers and employees.  This episode of Amazing Business Radio with Shep Hyken answers the following questions and more:    What is the difference between customer experience and customer service?  Why is the concept "the customer is always right" often considered misguided?  How can companies benefit from shifting their focus from internal processes to customer-centric thinking?  What role does behavioral science play in improving customer experience?  How is artificial intelligence affecting customer service and employee roles in modern organizations?  Top Takeaways:    Customer experience isn't just a buzzword or a fancy way of saying customer service. It is not just about the moments where the customer needs help. It is about every interaction throughout the entire customer journey.  Customers are not always right, but they are always the customer. Customers sometimes have complaints or requests that don't align with the business's offerings, especially if they're not the target audience. Treat everyone with respect, even when you can't give them exactly what they want. Even when they are wrong, let them be wrong with dignity and keep the relationship open for the future as much as possible.  Behavioral science helps explain why customers act the way they do, make certain choices, and even how they respond to situations. Knowledge about how humans think and feel is just as essential as knowing how to organize teams or create new products. Understanding human behavior helps leaders make decisions that truly connect with employees and customers.  Success isn't just about financial results, but also about making life better for people inside and outside the company. Leaders who keep the well-being of employees, customers, and communities in mind make decisions that will have a positive impact on everyone.   AI is changing how work gets done, especially in customer service. AI helps humans do higher-level, creative, and caring work. AI can handle simple tasks, so humans can focus on building real relationships and solving complex problems.  Technology creates new opportunities. AI will not replace humans. It will change the type of work that humans do. Just like how the internet created tons of new jobs, AI will reshape the workplace and introduce new careers.   Plus, Shep and Bruce discuss why it is important for individuals and companies to make sure they are always moving towards their "North Star." Tune in!  Quote:   "One of the absolute misguided beliefs is that the customer is always right. They aren't. All you have to do is look at yourself in the mirror. Everyone's been a customer and not always been right when they've complained or seen a problem."  About:    Bruce Temkin is widely recognized as the "Godfather of Customer Experience," helping to shape customer and employee experience and advising leaders on how to keep people at the center of their organizational processes. He is the host of the podcast, Humanity at Scale: Redefining Leadership.    Shep Hyken is a customer service and experience expert, New York Times bestselling author, award-winning keynote speaker, and host of Amazing Business Radio.    Learn more about your ad choices.

In today's episode, I'm reflecting on the liminal space between the end of one year and the beginning of the next—the hazy “in-between” where routines fall away, time feels weird, and it's tempting to either over-hustle with resolutions or completely check out. I explore how this in-between mirrors our financial journeys, where growth is rarely linear and the quiet, uncertain seasons often hold the most potential for clarity, healing, and new stories around money. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you loved this episode, please take a moment to follow, rate, or review Money Isn't Scary — it helps more women find these much-needed conversations. You can also find me here:

Jennifer Jefferies reframes “starting over” as the gift it is, a chance to recalibrate, refine, and rise with everything life has already taught you.No burning it all down. No reinvention circus.Just upgrades, intuition, and honest momentum.If you've been resisting a change you know you're ready for, this is your nudge.You're not beginning at zero.You're beginning with you, wiser, tougher, and more powerful than ever.  Reframing the concept of "starting over" @ 0:30Jennifer discusses how the idea of "starting over" is often viewed negatively, as a sign of failure, when in reality it is a privilege to have the opportunity to make new choices and integrate past experiences. She emphasizes that life is not linear, and that every moment presents a chance to recalibrate and look at things differently.Embracing the wisdom of experience @ 1:16As women in their 40s, 50s, and 60s, Jennifer argues that we have accumulated invaluable wisdom and experience through the various chapters of our lives. Rather than seeing this as a burden, we should view it as a superpower that allows us to make more informed choices moving forward.Practical steps for a "fresh start" @ 8:02Jennifer outlines a 5-step process for approaching a "fresh start": 1) Conduct an "energy audit" to identify what's working and what needs to change, 2) Upgrade existing routines and habits rather than overhauling everything, 3) Build confidence by celebrating small wins, 4) Eliminate energy-draining people/commitments, and 5) Anchor your actions to a clear vision for your ideal life.Embracing the privilege of aging @ 13:22Jennifer emphasizes that the opportunity to continue growing and evolving, even in midlife and beyond, is a privilege that many do not get to experience. She encourages the listener to approach each new chapter with gratitude and an open mindset, rather than viewing it as a burden or failure.Closing thoughts and challenge @ 16:42Jennifer concludes by challenging the listener to identify one area of their life they've been resisting change in, and to take a small, intuitive step towards addressing it. She reiterates that we are never truly starting from zero, and that our past experiences are a wellspring of wisdom to draw from.

412 Ego and Soul When was the last time you were proud of yourself? When was the last time you took a moment to truly look at yourself and say "I am proud of the person I am and I want other people to see how amazing I can be."? When was the last time YOU fed your soul? It's easy to forget when we're cheering others on that we also need to cheer ourselves on, because if we don't then who will?  In this episode Sarah Elkins and Sharon Rolph discuss their own personal growth and the pride they feel in the people they have become and are still growing into.    Highlights The desire to be visible and relevant as we grow.   The importance of ego in our growth. Be proud of yourself and how far you have come. Embracing visibility. Just because something is uncomfortable, doesn't make it inauthentic. It only makes it uncomfortable.  The importance of having Soul and Ego in an authentic manner.    Quotes "I think a lot of us women have been too quiet." "The butterflies flying in your stomach, just get them flying in formation."  "I decide what stops me."   Dear Listeners it is now your turn, What are you doing consciously or unconsciously to remain relevant in your daily activities? What are you thinking about when it comes to being somebody who matters, someone who contributes? What are you choosing in your life to make sure you have ongoing relevance, whether that's directly to the planet, whether that's to your family, whether that's to your home, to your fur babies, or to your community. I would love to hear your thoughts on this.      And, as always, thank you for listening.    About Sharon For most of her life Sharon felt invisible and when retired, she wondered how she'd know if she was productive.

About Sarah "Uncovering the right stories for the right audiences so executives, leaders, public speakers, and job seekers can clearly and actively demonstrate their character, values, and vision." In my work with coaching clients, I guide people to improve their communication using storytelling as the foundation of our work together. What I've realized over years of coaching and podcasting is that the majority of people don't realize the impact of the stories they share - on their internal messages, and on the people they're sharing them with. My work with leaders and people who aspire to be leaders follows a similar path to the interviews on my podcast, uncovering pivotal moments in their lives and learning how to share them to connect more authentically with others, to make their presentations and speaking more engaging, to reveal patterns that have kept them stuck or moved them forward, and to improve their relationships at work and at home. The audiobook, Your Stories Don't Define You, How You Tell Them Will is now available! Included with your purchase are two bonus tracks, songs recorded by Sarah's band, Spare Change, in her living room in Montana. Be sure to check out the Storytelling For Professionals Course as well to make sure you nail that next interview!

Embracing the End Times: Overcoming Fear and Realizing Our True AuthorityIn this episode of Discovering Truth with Dan Duval, Dan examines the convergence of end-times prophecy, the rapid advancement of artificial intelligence, and global geopolitical shifts toward a centralized world order. He addresses the growing fear among many Christians regarding the end times and challenges escapist doctrines such as pre-tribulation rapture, offering a deeper biblical framework for understanding the Church's role in this season.Drawing from extensive scriptural study and personal revelation, Dan presents a compelling case for the unmatched authority entrusted to the Church. He emphasizes the function of the ecclesia- God's governing body on earth and underscores the necessity of understanding our identity in Christ to overcome fear and deception. Dan explains that when the Church awakens to its true authority, it possesses the power to confront and dismantle the schemes of the kingdom of darkness. He explores spiritual principles related to divine courts, asserting that believers can leverage injustices suffered by themselves and their ancestors to obtain judgments against demonic strongholds. According to Dan, this awakening will catalyze the rapid transformation of nations and disrupt the foundations of the emerging new world order, advancing God's purposes on the earth.

ABOUT THIS EPISODEEver feel like you know better… but your life hasn't quite caught up yet? Like you've upgraded your habits, your mindset, even your standards — but your reactions, confidence, or nervous system are still running an old script? Yeah. That's not a failure. That's The Alignment Gap.In this episode, we're talking about the quiet, uncomfortable space between awareness and embodiment — when women evolve intellectually faster than they evolve emotionally. And whew… that gap can create confusion, self-doubt, and a lot of unnecessary self-criticism if you don't understand what's actually happening.This conversation is for the high-achieving, self-aware woman on a healing journey who's asking, “Why do I know better but still feel misaligned?” We're breaking down identity growth, self-trust, nervous system recalibration, and why giving yourself grace is the missing key to real alignment. No pushing harder. No shaming. Just truth, embodiment, and Main Character Energy.KEY TAKEAWAYSClarity Insight: Awareness grows faster than embodiment — and that doesn't mean you're behind. It means you're integrating.Truth Bomb: Your nervous system needs safety, not pressure, to catch up with the woman you're becoming.Empowering Shift: You can love past versions of yourself and choose a more aligned way to express your power now.Action Step: Alignment isn't built through force — it's built through small, consistent, embodied choices.Main Character Takeaway: You're not becoming her someday — your identity is simply catching up to who you already are.CHAPTERS00:00 Understanding the Alignment Gap01:57 Creating a Safe Space for Growth02:43 Navigating the Challenges of Growth04:18 Building Self-Trust Through Repetition07:46 Embracing the Discomfort of Expansion09:51 Reassigning Roles in Your Evolution14:07 Practical Steps for Embodying Change16:53 Final Encouragement and Call to ActionTHE SELF-LOVE 2-STEP:

On this festive episode of the CityLight Podcast, Pastor Bo calls us to pursue the presence of God above all else.

In His presence is fullness of joy—and that’s what we’re after.(00:00) Repentance brings you home(06:05) Bringing God your best(18:35) Choosing stillness over striving(32:54) Jonah’s detour and destiny(46:17) Being led step by step(50:32) Hearing God in dark seasons(55:53) First Fruits and closing prayerhttps://citylightnyc.com/
