As I explore the significance of breath, I highlight it as a fundamental, yet often overlooked, tool for achieving a state of tranquility and balance within our bodies and minds. Drawing inspiration from James Nestor's enlightening book, "Breath: The New Science of a Lost Art," I emphasize how the way we breathe can dramatically influence our overall well-being.Throughout the discussion, I unpack the automatic nature of breathing and how our typical patterns can betray us, especially in moments of anxiety. When we are overwhelmed, it's common for our breathing to become shallow and rapid, sending distress signals to our brain and maintaining a state of hyperarousal. I reflect on my own journey of discovering the benefits of long, slow exhalations and conscious breathing, which not only transformed my personal anxiety management but also allowed me to assist others in making similar changes.I stress the importance of breathing through the nose, as highlighted by Nestor, reclaiming what he describes as the "lost art of breathing." I detail the physiological benefits of proper nasal breathing — it calms the nervous system and activates the parasympathetic response, ensuring that our bodies can transition to rest and digest mode. Practical exercises are woven throughout the episode, allowing listeners to engage with their breath in real time, guiding them away from stress and towards a newfound sense of safety.#AnxietyCoachesPodcast, #Breathwork, #AnxietyRelief, #NervousSystem, #MindBody, #JamesNestor, #BreathTheNewScienceOfALostArt, #NasalBreathing, #SlowBreathing, #Calm #Mindfulness, #RelaxationTechniques, #VagusNerve, #SelfCompassion, #HealthAndWellness, #StressManagement, #ConsciousBreathing, #RestAndDigest, #AnxietySucks, #BreathingExercises, #ReduceStress, #PodcastLife, #DailyPractice, #InhaleExhale, #InnerPeace, #EmotionalHealth, #MentalWellness, #NaturalCalm, #ResetButton #GinaRyan #ACPSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Send us a textDr. Arianna Molloy, author of "Healthy Calling: From Toxic Burnout to Sustainable Work," shares on "calling burnout" and why it hurts more than standard exhaustion. Regular burnout says, "I don't like what I'm doing anymore." Calling burnout says, "I don't know who I am anymore." To find our way back, she offers a practical, research-backed posture of healthy humility: know your strengths and weaknesses without being ruled by either; live as a learner who isn't threatened by not knowing; and practice the capacity to walk away, rest, and remember you're not God. This is not self-erasure. It's a return to sanity, a way to steward gifts without becoming indispensable to them.We also explore communication as a healing balm for homes and teams. Truthful, kind, and clear messages—spoken, written, and nonverbal—repair trust faster than endless clarification by text. Simple rhythms like visual voice messages, shared gratitude at the table, and sabbath touchpoints keep relationships tender and resilient. Along the way, gratitude emerges as humility in action: a daily reorientation that dissolves cynicism and turns ordinary messes into moments of meaning.If you're a mom, leader, creative, or caregiver wondering how to serve without losing yourself, this conversation offers a grounded path forward.

Have you ever found yourself holding on to hurt, disappointment, or resentment from something (or someone) in your past? Maybe you’ve been wounded by others’ words or actions, or perhaps you’re simply tired of feeling weighed down by offense. This week on The Love Offering Podcast, I’m talking with Alexandra Hoover, author of You Can Let Go: Don’t Let Past Hurts Steal Your Current and Future Joy. Together, we’re exploring how to: * Let go of pain and disappointment that’s holding you back* Live from a place of radical acceptance in Christ* Walk boldly in the abundance God offers Alexandra reminds us that while we can’t always control how others act, we can choose how we respond. She helps us uncover the roots of our insecurities and wounded pride so we can find our true identity—not in how people treat us—but in who Jesus says we are. If you’re ready to make peace with your past, live free from offense, and embrace emotional and spiritual freedom, this episode will encourage and empower you.

Gratitude journals. Green juices. Meditation apps. We've been taught happiness is a checklist, but what if that's only half the story?In this episode, we dive into the world of Positive Psychology and the concept of flourishing– living deeply, not just lightly. We explore the PERMA‑H model (Positive Emotion • Engagement • Relationships • Meaning • Accomplishment • Health) and what it really means to feel alive even when life isn't easy. If you've done all the “right” self‑care things and still feel off… you're not failing. You're human. And this episode is your gentle invitation to stop chasing happiness and start tending what matters. What You'll Discover:Why happiness as a finish line keeps us stuckHow the PERMA‑H model gives us a fuller picture of wellbeingHow cultural expectations twist engagement, achievement, health & moreA simple journaling exercise to map where you're full and where you need spaceWhy flourishing is rhythmic – not balanced or perfect “Flourishing is the whole spectrum – light and dark, joy and grief, purpose and pause. And learning to hold all of it – that's what it really means to be alive.”

Most men fear what they don't understand - and nothing confuses or frustrates them more than the hormonal changes women experience in midlife. Jon and Will sit down with renowned women's health expert Dr. Lisa Larkin to decode the menopause transition and reveal how understanding it can transform relationships, health, and communication. From navigating mood shifts and libido changes to recognizing breast cancer risks and the benefits of lifestyle and hormone therapy, Dr. Larkin exposes how women's health - especially between ages 40 and 55 - has been neglected for far too long. This eye-opening conversation challenges stigma, empowers both partners to talk openly about menopause, and shows men why knowledge is the key to stronger, more connected relationships.Chapters:00:00 - Introduction03:02 - Bridging the Gender Gap in Midlife Women's Health06:12 - How Menopause Shapes Relationships10:04 - What Every Woman Should Know About Midlife Health13:41 - The Truth About Breast Cancer Risk20:53 - Genetics, Sex, and the Overlooked Sides of Women's Health27:19 - Menopause at Work: Why Support Matters32:13 - Treatment, Awareness, and Real Support for Menopausal Women34:13 - The Real Story Behind Menopausal Hormone Therapy51:03 - The Hidden Risks of High-Dose Testosterone Pellets54:48 - How Hormonal Changes Affect Love and ConnectionFeeling stuck?

Help Me Make a Difference Hey, it's Paul here, and this episode is a little different. I want to ask for your help — because I really want to make a difference. For years I've been putting out two episodes a week — a Five-Minute Quickie and a longer one — and to be honest, it's been tough to keep up. More than that, I've realised I want to go deeper. I want to spend more time on the stuff that really matters — the stuff that helps people change for good. So, from now on, I'll be doing one episode a week. Sometimes it'll be a short FMQ to plant a seed, and sometimes a longer one where we dive deep — with hypnosis, NLP, and all the good stuff that helps you change from the inside out. But here's the thing… I can't do it on my own. We all have our struggles, right? The things we keep bottled up because we don't want to seem weak, or we don't know who to talk to. I've seen too many people suffer in silence — and I don't want that to happen anymore. So I'd love your help. Tell me what's really going on for you — or maybe for someone you know. What's the thing you or they are struggling with? And just as important — how would you like to feel instead? That's where the real change begins. When you can imagine what it's like to feel better, to feel free, confident, peaceful — then we can start making that happen together. Please share this message https://personaldevelopmentunplugged.com/help-me-make-a-difference/ You can email me (anonymously if you like) at feedback@personaldevelopmentunplugged.com I'd be so grateful to hear from you. Let's make this podcast something that doesn't just help you — but helps others too. Let's make it a real community of change. Thanks for being here, for listening, and for being part of this. Shine brightly, Paul And the transcript WARNING if you're a lover of the written word this may make you frustrated, or angry - you have been warned - is it an 'ism Help me make a difference Hi, how you doing? I don't think we ask that enough, do we? How are you doing? And mean it. Sometimes I think we have to ask at least three times to the same person. Really? How you doing? Really? How you doing? And what am I talking about? What am I talking about? Well, I'm going to change the format of the Personal Development Unplugged podcast.   For the last years and years and years and years and years, I've been cracking out two podcasts a week, five minute quickie and a longer version. And it's taken its toll a little bit because I find it really difficult to fit it all in. And my mind is that there's important things to talk about where we need to go into depth, find processes that really make a difference, approach the difficult subjects.   And I think to do that, I'm only going to do a weekly podcast. And one of those will be a seed, a five minute quickie still, but it'll be a seed for a longer podcast so I can get you to think. Think and get ready for something deeper.   But the whole point is I want to help people. I want to help people more than I've been doing. And to do that, again, I say we've got to approach these subjects, which are a little bit not taboo, but maybe they're not spoken about quite so much.   And I'm noticing it happening a bit more now. You know, guys opening up, being strong and saying they need help. Unfortunately, there's one or two that we've seen in the news that don't.   Damn, we miss them. It's too big a shame and we need to do something about it. And that's just not guys.   It's everyone. We all have our struggles. And sometimes these struggles can seem so much because they're all inside, aren't they? They're in our bloody head and we seem to think that we have to deal with them by ourselves because it's weak to tell anybody about it.   Or find the right person. Or I can't afford to get the therapy I need. I can't even admit I need therapy.   And that's no fucking good to anybody. So what I want to do is to get deeper into subjects. Take a little time to get things right.   I know. But I want to do deeper subjects with real deep hypnosis to get the unconscious mind to change. Because a lot of these issues that we have, they're in our bloody head.   And they're not caused consciously. You think about it consciously. But if you had created it consciously, you would change easily, effortlessly.   Just by thinking about it. Because you create things consciously, you change things consciously. But these are at an unconscious level.   They're like unconscious behaviours. That limiting belief, those emotions, those negative emotions. And although they're, well I believe they're there to protect us.   I just know there's better ways. And it's your unconscious mind needs guiding. It needs help to create change at the unconscious level.   Because this is where our issues are created. Something happens to us and our unconscious mind decides to help. Unfortunately, sometimes it doesn't.   It creates negative emotions. Has a limiting belief just to keep us safe. But then it carries on.   But that's where I'm going to need your help. Because we all have these issues. And I'd like you to, you can do it anonymously.   But just email me. Maybe if you want to email me. I'm on Instagram, Facebook, all those bloody places.   But email me would be better. And just give me an idea of the type of things that we're struggling with. Maybe a friend of yours who's struggling.   And you can just give me an idea of the things that are happening. And more importantly, and this is the thing and the thing what people forget. If we're talking about you or them, how you want to feel instead.   How they want to feel instead of having this issue. Because that's the most important thing. If we can just imagine that if everything disappeared.   All the issues were to disappear right now. How would I like to be? How would I like to be physically, mentally, spiritually, emotionally? What type of beliefs would support me? And if you can pass it on to me, I'd be so indebted to you. So we can really make a difference.   And I want to make a difference. I know this small little podcast has made a difference to people. But I want to make a more significant difference to you and your friends.   So if that's something you could help with, please do let me know. And I'm sorry that I'm not going to do like two weekly podcasts anymore. But I want to get deeper as I say.   You know, some things I don't like the click baits that people are doing. I don't like all this, you know, easy ways to do this and that. We're going to change things and they are going to be easy.   But easy doesn't mean it doesn't take effort. It takes effort. It takes discipline.   And it takes a will to do whatever it takes. But if you know how you want to feel, then I know you will have that will to do whatever it takes. So let's please make a difference.   Please help me make a difference. So take a moment or two, just notice how you want to feel. And if you're not feeling that way, let me know.   Let me know what you're feeling and what you're not feeling. And let's start making a difference to you, to me. So I hope you're going to enjoy the things.   Please say, give me comments, feedback if we're going into the right directions. You know, there's so many different things we could talk about, but there is so much going on in the world that needs our mental help. Mental health needs support.   So let's do that together. Let's change the world together. Be the change you want to see in other people.   Show what is possible because it is. It's all possible. I've seen it so many times in the clinic that people coming in feeling so, so down.   And in one or two sessions, they change. And they change their lives and they change. And because they change, it's not a do to, it's a do with.   We work together. They change and that confidence spreads in so many different areas of their life. The whole life changes.   Everyone they know changes around them. Life gets so much better and life can always get a bit better, a little bit more better. So if this is something you feel you could help or help me with, I'd really love your help.   But disregarding that, I'm going to do it anyway. I'm just going to do what I can and hopefully you'll see a difference. And again, I always say if you could just share this with somebody, because the more this podcast gets out to just a few more people, a few more, because I'm only interested in hitting the people who need, who want the help, who need the help.   It's not about clicks. It's getting real good processes to make or to allow people to change, to guide people to change, get back to driving your bus, become the person you are meant to be and more. There you go.   That's this little, little thing that why I'm going to change the podcast. Hope you like it and sending my love to you. Okay.   Please enjoy. Warning, you are now leaving the unplugged mind of Paul Clough. It's time to fly and run.   Be brave, my friend. Okay. Personal development unplugged. Transcribed by TurboScribe.ai.

Send us a textPull up a chair at the Dim Sum Table and discover why your story—every tender, tangled part—holds real weight. Janell welcomes Jenn Suen Chen, author of Dim Sum and Faith: How Our Stories Form Our Souls, to explore how faith, family history, and formation weave together, not as a self-help checklist but as a lived way of being shaped by Scripture.Jenn introduces a four-part arc for spiritual growth—shaping, undoing, awakening, remaking—and shows why the “undoing” we avoid is often where God does His gentlest work. We unpack migration as more than immigration: movement across generations under pressure from war, economics, and longing. Naming those movements reduces shame, expands compassion, and builds what Jenn calls emotional elasticity in our home cultures. Along the way, we sit with a disarming truth from her son: “We don't get to choose what our brain calls hard.” That single line frees us from comparison, inviting honest prayer: Jesus, show me where You are here.Visit Jenn Suen Chen's website: JennOrder Jenn's new book: Dim Sum and FaithSupport the showBegin Your Heartlifter's Journey: Visit and subscribe to Heartlift Central on Substack.

In this new episode, #226 - Training a New Missionary, I'm sharing some heartfelt thoughts inspired by a question I once received from a missionary: “I'm training a new missionary, and I'm worried my bad habits will ruin him.” If you've ever felt pressure to be the perfect example—whether as a trainer, a leader, a parent, or even a friend—this episode is for you. We'll talk about what your real job as a trainer actually is, how to let go of the fear of “ruining” someone, and why it's so much more powerful to teach from love and compassion than from worry or perfectionism. I'll share the difference between being book smart, street smart, and heart smart, and how focusing on that last one—heart smarts—can transform both your mission experience and your relationships. You'll also hear reminders that your “bad habits” don't define your worth or your influence, that everyone is learning as they go, and that God, the Spirit, and experience itself are the greatest teachers. When we train from humility, love, and self-compassion, we create ripple effects that bless every missionary who comes after us. As always, if you found this episode helpful, I want to invite you to subscribe if you aren't already, share this episode with your friends and missionaries you know, and write a review. I know this work will help LDS missionaries around the world and it would mean so much to me if you did.

Description: If you have ever lost your cool with your kids and then felt the crushing wave of guilt that comes sweeping in after—this episode is for you. This week, Jen and Amy sit down with psychotherapist and emotions educator Hilary Jacobs Hendel, author of ‘It's Not Always Depression' and the new book ‘Parents Have Feelings, Too', to talk about what happens when we stop ignoring our own emotions and start bringing more calm, curiosity, and compassion into our families. Hilary shares her groundbreaking Change Triangle model—a simple but powerful tool that helps us move from anxiety, shame, and reactivity to understanding what's really underneath: our core emotions like anger, sadness, fear, and joy. Together, they unpack: How to break cycles we inherited from our own parents What “open-hearted parenting” looks like in real life How to repair when we've said or done something we regret And why healing our emotions may be the greatest legacy we give our kids It's a conversation full of science, self-compassion, and deep sighs of relief—a reminder that parents have feelings too, and that tending to them isn't selfish; it's sacred work. Whether you're parenting toddlers, teens, or even adult children, there is something to serve you in this episode and it's a great one to share with a friend. Thought-provoking Quotes: “It's always possible for relationships and the brain to change, and they happen hand in hand, so it is never too late.” – Hilary Jacobs Hendel “What I needed to do was slow everything down and get curious. Get to know this kid, say, ‘tell me a little bit more about what's going on.' Question my own values and the ways I thought it was going to be, all these fantasies that I came in with at the expense of my kid when I thought I was helping.” – Hilary Jacobs Hendel “Self-awareness is an investment that comes back in dividends and capital gains beyond anything that we can imagine. And it's so much more relaxing to parent this way.” – Hilary Jacobs Hendel “I can shout from the rooftops that emotions education is important, just like reading and math is important. In high school biology we learn we have a heart, lungs, and pancreas, but emotions affect us far worse. Every single day of our lives. You'd think somebody would want to pay attention to teaching us a little bit about them.”– Hilary Jacobs Hendel Resources Mentioned in This Episode: Parents Have Feelings, Too: A Guide to Navigating Your Emotions So You And Your Family Can Thrive by Hilary Jacobs Hendel and Juli Fraga - https://amzn.to/4h3wtlf For The Love Of Reconnecting Episode 03: Making Good Use of Our Emotions: Hilary Jacobs Hendel - https://jenhatmaker.com/podcasts/series-32/making-good-use-of-our-emotions-hilary-jacobs-hendel/ It's Not Always Depression: Working the Change Triangle to Listen to the Body, Discover Core Emotions, and Connect to Your Authentic Self by Hilary Jacobs Hendel - https://amzn.to/3L3an6f The Change Triangle - https://www.hilaryjacobshendel.com/whats-the-change-triangle Awake: A Memoir by Jen Hatmaker - https://amzn.to/4nCb9pi Simple Habit meditation app - https://www.simplehabit.com/ The Change Triangle YouTube Channel - https://www.youtube.com/c/thechangetriangle/videos Guest's Links: Website - https://www.hilaryjacobshendel.com/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/hilaryjacobshendel/ Twitter - https://x.com/HilaryJHendel Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/AuthorHilaryJacobsHendel Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/c/thechangetriangle/videos Connect with Jen!Jen's Website - https://jenhatmaker.com/ Jen's Instagram - https://instagram.com/jenhatmakerJen's Twitter - https://twitter.com/jenHatmaker/ Jen's Facebook - https://facebook.com/jenhatmakerJen's YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/user/JenHatmaker The For the Love Podcast is presented by Audacy.  To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.

We're taking it back to one of the most powerful episodes we've ever recorded — a conversation that left many of our listeners speechless, and others inspired to take immediate action in their homes and communities.

What if setting boundaries isn't about pushing people away — but about finally choosing yourself? In this powerful and deeply relatable conversation, Harvard-trained clinical psychologist Dr. Sabrina Romanoff joins Surviving Roots host Cari Fund to unpack the hidden patterns that shape our relationships — from friendship breakups and people-pleasing to the repetition of childhood wounds in our adult lives. Together they explore: Why boundaries are acts of preservation, not rejection. How self-abandonment begins in childhood — and how to stop repeating it. The psychology behind friendship breakups and envy. What “getting comfortable in the uncomfortable” really looks like. How to know if someone is a battery or a generator in your life. Why guilt can actually be a sign of healing. Whether you're untangling toxic dynamics or learning to stand in your worth, this episode will help you reconnect with the version of yourself you've been betraying just to keep the peace. ✨ Connect with Dr. Sabrina Romanoff: @drsabrinaromanoff

That's a fraction of it. What they don't understand is that type two diabetes has a huge component of emotion and so I find within my own practice that those that have been later diagnosed with type two diabetics that had some form of injury to their mental emotional side." - Dr. Glen Robison [23:16] "The kidney is worry and fear, the lung is grief and sorrow. So if you can get somebody that's diabetic to stop the worrying, to start loving themselves, to think of, 'okay, I am important. I can do this,' and really take their energy up. Well, lo and behold, their sugar levels start to maintain." - Dr. Glen Robison [29:14] "I always sign my books, I-N-J-O-Y. 'cause joy's not found on the outside.

Summary In this episode, Ali Damron explores the intricate relationship between stress, repressed emotions, and the nervous system. She discusses how stress manifests in our bodies and minds, the impact of childhood experiences on emotional development, and the importance of radical acceptance in managing anxiety. The conversation emphasizes the need to recognize and process emotions rather than suppress them, highlighting the role of coping mechanisms and the significance of teaching our brains to feel safe. Ali encourages listeners to engage with their emotions and live their lives despite the presence of anxiety and stress. Takeaways Life is inherently stressful, affecting various aspects of our lives. Stress can lead to hormonal imbalances and various health issues. Managing stress is often oversimplified; we need deeper strategies. Repressed emotions can keep us stuck in anxiety. The nervous system interprets suppressed emotions as danger. Childhood experiences shape our emotional responses and coping mechanisms. Coping strategies often involve avoidance behaviors. Radical acceptance helps in acknowledging and processing emotions. Teaching the brain that it is safe to feel is crucial for healing. Engaging with life despite anxiety can promote emotional safety. Sound bites "How do we actually manage stress?" "Your brain and body are one thing." "Radical acceptance is not giving up."

Looking for more DTP Content? Check us out: www.thereadinesslab.com/dtp-links Host John Scardena sits down with Moose Mutlow, Search and Rescue (SAR) expert, author, and instructor based in Yosemite National Park. With over 20 years of frontline experience in swiftwater rescue, recovery, and family liaison operations, Moose shares hard-won lessons about humility, leadership, and resilience in the face of tragedy. The episode opens with John contextualizing a recent Yosemite accident—emphasizing that the discussion was recorded before that event but underscores the real-world gravity of Moose's work. Realities of Search & Rescue Operations Yosemite averages 220 SAR missions annually, from twisted ankles to multi-day helicopter recoveries. Moose recounts six-month recovery efforts and multi-year search closures, explaining how search theory must adapt to reality.  Leadership, Ego, and Humility A central thread throughout the episode is balancing confidence and humility. Moose and John explore the dangers of overconfidence—both in rescues and leadership. “A good leader listens, delegates, and lets go of control,” Moose notes. “You're not the hero if you can't come home.” They discuss teaching younger rangers through “safe humility”—allowing controlled failure to build competence and self-awareness.Emotional Health & Responder Wellness Moose details using the stress continuum to track emotional health, emphasizing the importance of processing trauma before it compounds. He explains the role of Family Liaison Officers in managing information flow to grieving families—balancing empathy, structure, and control. Both men share personal experiences with loss and coping, from fatal rescues to family grief, reinforcing that “holding space in silence” can be the most powerful act of compassion. Writing, Reflection, and Legacy Moose's books—When Accidents Happen and Searching—help responders process trauma through structured reflection. Writing, he says, “forces you to articulate intuition,” turning instinctive experience into teachable frameworks for others. John parallels this idea to the podcast's mission: amplifying field wisdom for professional development and collective growth. The Humanity in Service “Service is a gift, but it comes at a cost,” Moose says, calling for responders to protect their humanity rather than armor it away. The episode ends with a heartfelt reminder to reach out for help, celebrate small joys, and share mental health resources with others.

Send us a textThe hardest truth we learned in recovery wasn't about alcohol—it was about control. For years we tried to push, persuade, and rescue our way into peace, only to end up exhausted and resentful. Then two small words flipped everything: let them. Let them choose. Let them stay. Let them go. Let them misunderstand. And let us choose our peace, our boundaries, and our focus.We explore how the “Let Them” Theory reframes love, leadership, and sobriety without sliding into passivity. Control looks like care, but it's fear wearing a friendly mask. We share real stories of trying to fix partners, employees, and friends, and how accepting people's agency made room for real connection—and for those who are actually aligned to step in. You'll hear why love without boundaries becomes chaos, how rescuing steals growth, and why allowing people to be wrong about you is a fast track to freedom. We also unpack the surprising link between addiction and control, and why quiet consistency becomes more influential than any speech.If you've ever felt responsible for everyone else's choices—or felt triggered when they ignore your advice—take our practical tool with you: the Five Whys. Keep asking why until you move from blame to root-cause truth. Paired with surrender and spiritual trust, this shift calms your nervous system, clarifies what's yours to carry, and helps you stop arguing with reality. Let them live their story while you live yours—with integrity, compassion, and clear boundaries.If this resonated, subscribe, leave a review, and share it with someone who needs lighter shoulders and clearer lines.

A powerful Inner Child guided meditation to help you replace emotional overwhelm with inner peace - with Taoist monk and teacher, David James Lees.So many of us live spinning—mentally, emotionally—tied to old cycles of reaction. Round and round we go: anger, shame, fear, self-doubt. It may be familiar, but familiarity is not truth. That's the voice of our Inner Child, clinging to certainty. But now, we can choose something different. We can choose to understand and accept that we no longer need to ride this emotional carousel — we can choose calm, stillness and clarity...⚠️ PLEASE DO NOT LISTEN TO THIS MEDITATION WHILE DRIVING OR OPERATING MACHINERYLearn more about our online consultations, events and shop: https://www.wuweiwisdom.comSubscribe to David's FREE Journal: https://davidjameslees.substack.com/Other teachings and guided meditations you may enjoy:How to Stop Emotional Overwhelm https://youtu.be/RC3k1lCrNPY?si=tnzXugrnMUZHd0PjHow to Understand Your Emotions – Heal Your Emotions https://youtu.be/9XuoL9pQSR8?si=MKXb8KJbC3Gu2NmVGUIDED MEDITATION PLAYLIST https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL9NQ_PWX4zIA12P7BftG6a18lIWFDjL35&si=bWWub6YyoZpXhFubIs there a question you'd like answered on the show?

In this thought-provoking episode of the "Father and Joe" podcast, hosts Father Boniface Hicks and Joe Rockey delve deep into the potential impacts of technology, particularly artificial intelligence (AI), on human relationships and spiritual life. The conversation builds on the last week's discussion about the encroachment of AI in personal interactions, highlighting the dangers of relying too heavily on technology to connect with others and ourselves.Joe and Father Boniface discuss how AI can create a sense of emptiness in relationships, akin to trying to fill an infinite void with finite substances, which is often how sin manifests. They raise a critical question: When does the artificial relationship, facilitated by AI, feel fulfilling, and when does it leave us longing for more? This episode provides a "litmus test" to help listeners evaluate their interactions with AI—does it enrich their lives, or does it deplete their relational and emotional capacities?Father Boniface introduces insights from a Vatican document, "Antiqua et Nova," emphasizing that AI lacks the intrinsic qualities necessary for genuine human interaction—it has no interiority, intentions, or the capacity to truly care. Despite AI's sophisticated simulation capabilities, it cannot replace the profound depth of embodied human experiences that shape our intellect, morals, and soul.Through the lens of spirituality, the hosts explore the notion that AI, devoid of a soul, cannot nurture our spirituality or contribute to the development of virtues. Joe and Father Boniface urge listeners to critically assess their engagement with technology, ensuring it serves humanity rather than detracts from it.Towards the episode's end, the importance of traditional, interpersonal connection is revisited. In an age where technology often mediates relationships, the hosts stress the enduring necessity of face-to-face interaction for spiritual growth and relationship building.This episode is a call to mindfulness about the roles technology plays in our lives, encouraging continued philosophical inquiry into its ramifications. Joe and Father Boniface affirm the value of questioning and discerning technology's place in supporting human essence—a distinctly relational nature imbued with the divine spark.Tags:AI, Artificial Intelligence, Human Relationships, Technology, Spirituality, Church, Faith, Soul, Relational Growth, Podcast, Father and Joe, Religion, Emptiness, Sin, Vatican, Bible, Antiqua et Nova, Emotional Intelligence, Interpersonal Connection, Moral Discernment, Genuine Care, Spiritual Direction, Relationship Skills, Holiness, Embodied Experience, Humanity, Personal Development, Emotional Fulfillment, Relationship Evaluation, AI Therapists, Technology and Faith, Conversational AI, AI Limitations, Relational Intelligence, AI Impact, Emotional Health, Authentic Connection, Technology Dependence, Friendship, Connection, Spiritual Growth, Meaningful InteractionsHashtags:#AI #ArtificialIntelligence #HumanRelationships #Technology #Spirituality #Church #Faith #Soul #RelationalGrowth #Podcast #FatherAndJoe #Religion #Emptiness #Sin #Vatican #Bible #AntiquaEtNova #EmotionalIntelligence #InterpersonalConnection #MoralDiscernment #GenuineCare #SpiritualDirection #RelationshipSkills #Holiness #EmbodiedExperience #Humanity #PersonalDevelopment #EmotionalFulfillment #RelationshipEvaluation #AITherapists #TechnologyAndFaith #ConversationalAI #AILimitations #RelationalIntelligence #AIImpact #EmotionalHealth #AuthenticConnection #TechnologyDependence #Friendship #Connection #SpiritualGrowth #MeaningfulInteractionsThis line is here to correct the site's formatting error.

Send us a textThe quiet after the last suitcase leaves can feel like a freefall—or a doorway. We lean into that threshold with Kate Battistelli, author of The After Party of the Empty Nest: Mom Isn't Your Only Name, to reframe the empty nest as an after-party —a time to honor the first act of mothering and step into a purposeful, hope-filled second act. Kate shares the heart behind her directive, “Mom is not your only name,” and why your next chapter isn't smaller—it's just different, and often deeper.Together, we explore the three “bird” archetypes that map this transition—the quick-pivot swallow, the grieving mourning dove, and the balanced robin—so you can name where you are and choose what's next. Kate's story illustrates how courage grows when we respond to quiet nudges with small, faithful steps. We discuss dreaming with the Father without shrinking your desires, finding an “empty next” that builds the kingdom, and utilizing the margins of your day to prepare for new work, study, service, or creative callings.If this episode encourages you, please follow, share it with a friend who's nearing the transition, and leave a quick review so more moms can find the courage to start their after party.Download the Intro and First Chapter of The After Party of the Empty Nest: Text AFTERPARTY to 44144.Visit Kate's website: Kate BattistelliLearn more about Kate's book: The After Party of the Empty NestSupport the showBegin Your Heartlifter's Journey: Visit and subscribe to Heartlift Central on Substack.
