Rev. Wendy Craig-Purcell's lesson focuses on building healthy relationships through trust, transparency, vulnerability, and emotional intelligence. Trust is built through consistency and reliability, while transparency promotes clear communication to avoid misunderstandings. Vulnerability strengthens emotional intimacy by sharing personal feelings, balanced by healthy boundaries. Emotional intelligence involves self-awareness, empathy, and recognizing the impact of one's actions. Techniques like the "Empty Chair" and spiritual concepts like karuna and chesed emphasize empathy and compassion in fostering deep connections.Website: http://www.theunitycenter.net Download Our New App: https://theunitycenter.churchcenter.com/setupAsk Yourself This: https://www.amazon.com/Ask-Yourself-This-Questions-Expand/dp/087159336XSubscribe to our YouTube channel: http://bit.ly/2hBqp7F Purchase Lesson Series Packages: https://theunitycenter.net/sunday-series-packagesListen to our Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/6YJWcAhQUnkEHFqBXQmz1G

As season 15 continues, we're chatting today about a topic that has been close to my heart lately, and always, really — the power of friendship. We've already spoken about friendship this season, and we will again before the season concludes. I really resonated with Laura Tremaine's 2023 book The Life Council: 10 Friends Every Woman Needs. I think we have a tendency sometimes to put so much emphasis on one friend, but Laura's book puts forth that we have many different types of friends that make up a life — and that each member of the Life Council is important, valuable, and necessary. Like I tell Laura in today's episode, I see the Life Council like a presidential cabinet, all of my friends sitting around a table helping me navigate my way through life. And each of us has our own Life Council. Today Laura and I chat about how we are lonelier than ever, despite being more connected than ever; her five friendship philosophies, including making friendship a to do; the 10 members of the Life Council, including the Daily Duty friend, the Battle Buddy, and the Empty Chair; how we handle friendships when we are in different stages in life; the reality of the pain of a friendship breakup and how to grieve that loss; her best tips to make new friends as an adult and what she thinks about friendship groups; what she wishes more people knew about friendships; and so much more. I would personally like Laura to be my new friend, so let me tell you a little about her — she worked in film and TV production for many years at MTV, VH1, Fox, and Paramount Pictures before becoming a full-time writer. She writes about friendship (obviously), anxiety, motherhood, and marriage, and her posts and her podcast, 10 Things to Tell You, resonate with women looking for ways to connect more deeply with others as they move through life's stages. She's also the author of the 2021 book Share Your Stuff. I'll Go First: 10 Questions to Take Your Friendships to the Next Level, so, despite her reticence to call herself a friendship expert, I certainly see her as one. Sit back, get comfortable, and get ready to chat about friendship with me and the fabulous Laura Tremaine. The Life Council: 10 Friends Every Woman Needs by Laura Tremaine

On this episode of Christopher Lochhead: Follow Your Different, Christopher shares his personal journey through grief following the tragic murder of his close friend, Tushar. Joined by fellow Category Pirates Eddie Yoon and Katrina Kirsch, they explore the metaphor of the "empty chair" to symbolize the ongoing presence of loss. Eddie discusses Grief Design, advocating for radical self-expression and community support. Katrina emphasizes the universality of loss and the importance of open conversations about grief. Together, they offer insights on navigating grief, balancing pain with joy, and the transformative power of community support. You're listening to Christopher Lochhead: Follow Your Different. We are the real dialogue podcast for people with a different mind. So get your mind in a different place, and hey ho, let's go. The Empty Chair Christopher introduces the metaphor of the "empty chair" to symbolize the ongoing presence of grief in our lives. This empty chair represents those we have lost, serving as a poignant reminder of their absence while also opening up a space for reflection and conversation about our experiences with loss. Acknowledging the empty chair is the first step towards healing, and creating a physical space, such as a small memorial in your home, can serve as a tangible reminder and a place for reflection. Grief Design Eddie Yoon presents the concept of Grief Design, emphasizing the importance of actively engaging with our grief rather than allowing it to consume us. By framing our grief, we can express our anger and pain without resorting to violence or despair. Finding safe outlets for emotions, whether through writing, art, or physical activities, can aid in processing grief. Additionally, surrounding oneself with a supportive network of friends, family, and professionals is crucial. This support system helps navigate the tumultuous waters of grief, allowing for a deeper understanding of oneself and relationships. Creating Spaces and Opening Conversations for Grief Katrina Kirsch underscores the universality of loss and the importance of creating spaces for open and empathetic conversations about grief. Christopher shares his journey of learning to coexist with grief while seeking joy, highlighting the possibility of experiencing joy in the face of pain. Allowing dual emotions to coexist harmoniously is essential, and engaging in activities that bring joy, even if they are small, can help balance the emotional landscape. Christopher also touches on the role of faith in navigating grief, sharing a moment of vulnerability when he reached out to a higher power for support. Faith, whether through organized religion or personal spirituality, can provide comfort and strength during difficult times.

In this insightful interview, we focused on grieving during the holiday season. Claire offered invaluable advice, such as embracing sadness, accepting and validating your emotions, and practicing self-kindness. She also emphasized the importance of self-care, including staying hydrated, getting proper rest, and maintaining good nutrition during difficult times.We talked about my personal experiences with grief and how, thanks to Claire's guidance, Betsy feels more prepared to cope with this holiday season. Claire also shared her experiences with holiday grief and introduced the "Empty Chair" concept—acknowledging the absence of a loved one, starting new traditions, and building a supportive environment. She encouraged having a "quiet room" where people can take breaks from festivities, free from self-judgment. We also explored the "Lumpy Legacy" concept – the idea that life is full of challenges and changes and that this is not the end of your story.This interview is a must-watch for anyone navigating grief. Claire will return in March 2025 to discuss grief in the workplace. Betsy highly recommends Putting Out the Fire, a book that significantly helped her healing journey, even though her loss of her husband Matt was four years ago.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/chatting-with-betsy--4211847/support.

When an art song and opera composer writes a memoir, what does that process look like? Does mastery in one creative realm translate to another? How is an aria like a story?  I just loved this deep and passionate conversation with Ricky Ian Gordon, author of the new memoir SEEING THROUGH: A Chronicle of Sex, Drugs, and Opera.   Ricky Ian Gordon was born in Oceanside, NY and raised on Long Island. After studying piano, composition, and acting, at Carnegie Mellon University, he settled in New York City, where he quickly emerged as a leading writer of vocal music that spans art song, opera, and musical theater. Gordon's songs have been performed and recorded by Renée Fleming, Dawn Upshaw, Nathan Gunn, Judy Collins, Kelli O'Hara, Audra MacDonald, Kristin Chenoweth, and many others. His works include Dream True, Orpheus and Euridice, Green Sneakers for Baritone, String Quartet, Empty Chair, and Piano, The Grapes of Wrath, and Intimate Apparel. His memoir SEEING THROUGH: A Chronicle of Sex, Drugs, and Opera was published in July 2024.

We bid goodbye to the "First Lady of Suspense" as Agnes Moorehead stars in three old time radio thrillers. First, she plays a high school teacher who tries to save her student from a grisly end behind the wheel of a hot rod in "The Empty Chair" (originally aired on CBS on September 21, 1953). Then, Ms. Moorehead plays a mother who's a little too close to her adult son and who grows very upset when he introduces her to his fiancee in "Don't Call Me Mother" (originally aired on CBS on January 4, 1959). And - in the final episode of Suspense produced in Hollywood - she plays a patient who plans to end her relationship with her psychiatrist with a bullet in "Headshrinker" (originally aired on CBS on August 23, 1959).

Did you know the average age of a widow is 59? And there are eleven million widows in the United States with 1000 women becoming widowed every day?? This is a sobering topic none of us likes to think about, but the truth is, because it's so prevalent, we need to talk about it. Marilyn Nutter suddenly became a widow twelve years ago after 42 years of marriage and knows first-hand that widowhood is an uncomfortable the topic. But she also knows that there are many women out there, like herself, who are hurting and looking for resources to help. Because of this, she's written a book, Hope for Widows: Reflections on Mourning, Living and Change. She wrote it for two groups of people: widows and those who know and love widows. It's a valuable source of encouragement and comfort as widows adjust to their new normal and reimagine an active life with purpose in their future. She also gives practical tips on how to interact with widows in a way that lifts them up and provides much needed help. And she shares her secret to learning how to do things her husband used to take care of. We also talk a little about how to be better prepared if something does happen to your husband. Marilynn has acquired a lot of hard-earned wisdom over the last twelve years and wants to share that wisdom with you so that your load won't be quite as heavy to carry.

Welcome to Teachback Tuesday, where we replay the most popular episodes from previous seasons. This episode, The Empty Chair and Other Firsts of Grief is approaching the 10,000 download mark, which tells us something we already knew: grief is an ongoing rotation in life. Some of us are in the roles of comforters, while others need comforting. When it's our turn to grieve, we experience how deeply life changes with the absence of a loved one. If this is your experience, you have an empty chair and all the changes that come with the grieving process. Many people may try to be supportive and caring, but eventually they do have to leave us and return to their own lives. When no one else is around, God will not leave us alone. He is the Comforter Who abides with us forever. Here's a verse that reminds us of this truth: "And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever..."

"Sometimes . . . we just need someone to acknowledge that the ache is real. As the holidays come rushing in, so do the memories that remind me of my grandfather, and my cousin, and my eccentric friend — all of them gone too soon. So this holiday season, I won't fight the grief. I will hold hope in one hand and heartache in the other.  This holiday season I will choose to believe that our tears matter to God, the One who cradles all our little losses and greatest griefs. If you need the same, I hope you do the same. For the empty chair at your table, know that Christ dines with you and dwells within you — even and especially in this."Leave a comment for Rachel: https://incourage.me/?p=235920--Let DaySpring help you prepare your heart and home for Thanksgiving!

Welcome to another episode in my Friendship Stories series.  Over the last few months, we've heard a number of uplifting stories about unique and transformative friendships in this series. But today's episode is about an aspect of friendship that is painful and rarely discussed: the friendship break up. My guest, JeriLynne, shares that when her marriage ended, there was collateral damage in the form of friendship loss as well. That friendship breakup left her without real closure and she continues to struggle to be vulnerable in friendships. While it's certainly easier to talk about all the positive aspects of friendship, I think it's also important to discuss these harder, more painful parts of these formative relationships. JeriLynne's experience is significant and unfortunately a very real part of these friendship. I write about friendship breakups and friendship loss in The Life Council in a chapter called The Empty Chair.   BUY THE LIFE COUNCIL NOW   SUBSCRIBE to 10 Things To Tell You so you never miss an episode!
