Today's devotion in prayer is centered on this topic that everything in your life is going to be okay. How can I say that confidently? Because the Word of God declares this in second Corinthians chapter one, verse ten. We've been discussing how to get through trials, how to overcome trials and suffering. And in our first lesson, we went over that God permit trials and suffering in your life. That simply means that God allowed these things to happen. Now why would God allow them to happen? The Bible says so that you can comfort others. God will comfort you in the midst of trials so that you may know how to comfort others. And in our last episode, we talked about that God not only permit trials to happen in your life, but he also empowers us to bear trials. God will bring us to the end of ourselves so that we can bear trials..............

Podcast Notes Episode 470 Conversations That Get Clients Hosts: Brian Miller, PCC and Chad Hall, MCC Date: June 19, 2025 In this episode, Chad and Brian dive deep into the realities of getting coaching clients, debunking the myth that "if you build it, they will come." They explore the importance of having intentional conversations as the primary engine for building a coaching practice. Through personal insights and practical frameworks like the "cold, warm, hot" conversation model, the episode emphasizes authenticity, competence, and consistency as key ingredients in client acquisition. Key Highlights: Clients Don't Just Show Up: Unlike some professions like counseling, coaching requires active engagement and conversation to build visibility and trust. The Power of Being “Not Needy and Not Weird”: The most attractive coaches (and people) present themselves confidently and without desperation. The Cold-Warm-Hot Conversation Framework: Cold: Encouragement-based, genuine interest in others. Warm: Topic-based discussions showing competence. Hot: Proposal conversations aiming for a yes or no. Conversations Are the Funnel: Client relationships begin with small talk and evolve—coaching is fundamentally a relationship built through many meaningful interactions. Shift Your Mindset: Stop thinking like someone who wants to be hired and start operating like an equal engaging peers in thoughtful dialogue. Takeaways: Client acquisition is relational, not transactional. Coaches must consistently invest in genuine conversations to build trust over time. Being needy kills opportunities. Confidence and detachment from the outcome make you more attractive to potential clients. Encouragement is underrated. Starting relationships with encouragement creates warmth and opens doors for deeper discussions later. Warmth precedes depth. Coaches must first be skilled at shallow conversations before diving into deeper, transformational ones. Conversations are the marketing strategy. You don't need to be “in sales” to get clients—you need to connect meaningfully, regularly.   Stay Connected: Website: coachapproachministries.org Email: info@coachapproachministries.org LinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/company/coach-approach-ministries Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/coach.approach.ministries Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@coachapproachministries7538 Follow us on social media for updates and resources!

In this episode of Crafting a Meaningful Life, host Mary Crafts engages in a thought-provoking conversation with Julia Henning, a life coach and author, about how to invite ease into our lives. The discussion opens with Mary sharing a personal story about realizing how some people might find reward in making life harder than it needs to be. This revelation ties seamlessly into Julia's expertise and philosophy as captured in her book "It Gets to Be Easy." The dialogue explores how life can be approached with an alignment perspective, allowing individuals to navigate challenges with more grace and less struggle. The episode delves into the core differences between living life easily versus with ease, and how aligning with one's authentic self can lead to profound life changes. Julia elaborates on how ease isn't about eliminating challenges but reshaping our relationship with life's circumstances. Through engaging anecdotes and reflective insights, they explore various modalities and strategies like Water Release Therapy and the concept of infinite timelines to tap into this state of ease. With passion and a deep understanding of human consciousness, Julia guides listeners on finding ease amidst life's inherent chaos. About the Guest: Julia Henning is a certified life coach and author of the book "It Gets to Be Easy: The Art of Authenticity and Other Life Lessons We Skipped." Julia holds a master's degree in psychology and has a diverse background in acting, directing, writing, and immersive theater. Originating from Detroit, Michigan, and now residing in Los Angeles, California, she has spent over a decade helping individuals embrace their authenticity by integrating self-trust and emotional intelligence into their lives. Julia is known for her holistic approach that combines immersive experiences with psychological insights, aimed at helping clients deprogram hustle culture and find ease in their lives. Key Takeaways: Ease is an internal state about aligning with one's authentic self, whereas easy refers to external circumstances that may or may not require effort. The importance of self-trust and emotional intelligence as foundations for living a more fulfilling and easy life. Introducing modalities like Water Release Therapy to help in releasing stored tensions and embracing ease. The idea of integrating consciousness and awareness into daily living to better navigate life's struggles while finding personal meaning. Encouragement to foster authenticity by questioning societal norms and embracing the art of letting, rather than constantly striving to force outcomes.   Resources: Julia Henning's Website: iamjuliahenning.com Instagram: @iamjuliahenning Book: "It Gets to Be Easy: The Art of Authenticity and Other Life Lessons We Skipped" available on Amazon.

It seems as if the movie comes around again about once a year on TV, and we get a chance to see that charming story called "The Wizard of Oz." What a quartet! I mean, Dorothy, the little Kansas farm girl blown into the Land of Oz. She wants to see the Wizard to get help to get home. Then remember, there's a Scarecrow, he wants to see the Wizard to get some brains. And the Tin Woodsman, well, he's looking for a heart. And last but not least, there's that lovable feline, the Cowardly Lion. Now I know some people who could use some brains, I know some people who could use a little more heart; but we're surrounded by people who could use more of what that Cowardly Lion was looking for. Remember, "I need courage." I'm Ron Hutchcraft, and I want to have A Word With You today about "Lifting People Up." Our word for today from the Word of God comes from Hebrews 10, and I'm going to begin reading at verse 24: "Let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds. Let us not give up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but let us encourage one another, and all the more as you see the Day approaching." Okay, so we're supposed to be in the business of spurring people on to be what they need to be, to do what they need to do. In other words, people should be better off because they've been around you. That was the effect Jesus had on the people that He was around. How will that happen? Well, it happens when we do this: "Let us encourage one another." I was thinking the other day about what encourage means. Just reverse it - courage in. It means you're putting courage in people. It's like a gasoline fill-up except it's a motivation fill-up. When you encourage someone, you literally put courage in them. You give them courage to take a risk, to trust God, maybe just to get through a very tough day. You put courage in someone when you stop and you pray with them. I said with them, by the way, not just for them. An arm around them says, "Wait, let's stop and pray about your situation right now." I have seen people literally change before my eyes when I would just take a moment to pray with them. You encourage a person when you give them specific praise for something they did or more importantly for something they are. Sometimes the courage injection comes from a scripture verse you share with them, or a spontaneous note or an email you write, or a text, maybe just a minute spent honestly inquiring how they're really doing. I can't tell you how many times someone's word, or note, or prayer of encouragement has literally put courage in me on a day when courage was really needed. And the encourager could never have known how much I needed it. But they were literally the channel for God to say to me, "Ron, I love you. It's going to be okay. Take courage, man." Encouragement restores your perspective when it's been battered and beat up by the pressures of the day. The great thing about the ministry of putting courage in people is that anybody can do it. It doesn't require any great gifts. It doesn't require any musical ability, or speaking or leadership, or a seminary degree - just a heart. It takes a genuine interest and it looks for ways to give that person encouragement, to build them up. That Cowardly Lion finally got his courage largely from being with three other friends who carried him through the tough times. People around you don't need a wizard to give them courage. But they may very well need some courage to take the next step on the road of their life. They just need somebody like you. They need the courage-giving love of a Jesus follower...maybe you.

Becca Kearl had just moved to a new town when she decided to organize a public conversation about one of the most controversial topics: sex education. No formal training. No guarantees. Just a desire to understand her community better. What started as an ambitious idea turned into a surprising and powerful night of connection between people with deeply different beliefs. In this episode of Uncomfy, host Julie Rose talks with Becca about how that first event sparked her career in community dialogue, what makes conversations go well (or fall apart), and why your story is always more powerful than your opinion. Becca is now the executive director of Living Room Conversations, which provides free resources to help people host meaningful discussions across divides.

So many of us worry we're not doing enough when it comes to homeschooling—but what if simply choosing this path is already a powerful step in the right direction? In this encouraging conversation, I talk with Ginny Yurich of 1000 Hours Outside about her newest book and the deep confidence that can come from stepping outside the system. We explore how real learning often looks like play, boredom, creativity, and curiosity—how our kids naturally fill in the gaps over time, and how the freedom to pursue their own interests can lead to unexpected and incredible outcomes. If you've ever doubted your ability to homeschool well, this episode will remind you that you're doing more right than you think. In this episode, we cover: How Ginny accidentally started a global movement—and why it resonates so deeply with families The heart behind her new book Homeschooling: You're Doing It Right Just by Doing It What we miss when we follow the standard school model—and the surprising freedom of unlearning it The one message every anxious or burnt-out homeschool parent needs to hear What if the thing you're worried is a “deficit” is actually your child's biggest advantage? Why qualities like creativity and empathy will matter more than grades in the world our kids are growing up in What boredom, unstructured time, and “doing nothing” are actually teaching your child What's lost when childhood is spent only with same-age peers—and what kids gain from growing up alongside babies and toddlers Why your kids need to see you building, learning, trying—and even failing Everyone has educational gaps... so what really matters in the long run? When you trust the process, learning shows up in the most beautiful and unexpected ways The amazing story of how Ginny's daughter became a certified personal trainer at just 15 Why homeschooling doesn't have to look like anyone else's—and that's the point View full show notes on the blog + watch this episode on YouTube.

You're doing everything right, staying productive, chasing growth, keeping up. But what if the discomfort you feel isn't a sign that you need to do more, but a signal to let go? In this episode, Charlie Gilkey and I explore the Tao Te Ching, which is one of my favorite books of all time, but not as a relic from the past, but as a guide for navigating the speed and complexities of modern life, including the rise of AI.We talk about how ancient wisdom can live side by side with new technology and how presence, simplicity, and inner alignment still matter, now more than ever,The Tao Te Ching is one of those books I keep coming back to. Ancient wisdom, wrapped in poetry, that somehow feels more relevant every year. Like this line: “If you look to others for happiness, you will never be happy. If your well-being depends on money, you will never be content.“Simple. Clear. Actually useful.I've teamed up with Rebind.ai to create an interactive edition of the Tao—forty essential verses, translated into plain, everyday language, with space to reflect, explore, and ask questions.

Have you ever followed what you knew God was asking you to do — and ended up feeling lonelier than ever? You're not crazy, and you're not alone. In this episode of the Seen and Heard Christian podcast, Cami talks about what it really feels like to walk in spiritual discernment — especially when obedience doesn't come with instant peace or external validation. If you've ever asked, “Did I hear God right?” or wrestled with how quiet it feels after doing the right thing, this episode will meet you there. This is a vulnerable, honest conversation for the believer who is trying to stay faithful, even when it's hard.

Have you ever felt like you're falling behind in life? Like everyone else is getting married, starting families, launching ministries, or stepping into their callings—while you’re still waiting? If so, you are not alone. And more importantly, you’re not too late. This week on The Love Offering podcast, I had the joy of speaking with Rebecca George about her new book, You’re Not Too Late: Trusting God’s Timing in a Hurry-Up World. In a culture that tells us to hustle, strive, and “make it happen,” Rebecca offers a beautiful invitation to wait well—to rest in God's presence, release resentment, and find joy in the meantime. Together, we talk about: How to bring our disappointments honestly before God Finding contentment even when our desires are unmet How to turn envy and doubt into deeper trust Forming life-giving habits that help us flourish in every season If you're in a season of longing or wondering when it will be your turn, I know this episode will speak to your heart. Because you’re not behind. You’re exactly where God wants you—and He is never late. Gratefully,Rachael P.S.

In this heartwarming episode of "Father and Joe," host Joe Rockey expresses deep gratitude to Father Boniface for the profound impact he's had on his personal life and spiritual journey. The episode opens with a sincere acknowledgment of Father Boniface's influence, which has extended over the years from personal advice to naming Joe's new son after him, signifying the deep respect and admiration Joe holds for Father Boniface.Throughout their engaging discussion, Joe reflects on the seven-year journey since the podcast began.

He further emphasizes that their collaborative effort has not only enriched Joe's life but also positively affected the lives of their listeners.The episode progresses into a thoughtful dialogue about the significant role relationships play in deepening one's faith. Father Boniface notes that while obstacles in developing a relationship with God may initially seem to be on one's end, it's through community, relationships, and love that these barriers are often overcome. He reminds listeners of the communal aspect of faith, encouraging those who have extra to extend help to those who may be struggling to foster such relationships.Joe complements this with an insightful thought experiment that encourages listeners to rethink past situations and relationships, aiming to open their hearts and minds to love. This practice, Joe suggests, is akin to mentally and emotionally stretching, allowing more room for growth, vulnerability, and understanding—a crucial step towards embracing faith.As they close, Joe and Father Boniface discuss the evolution of the podcast itself, noting how their own relationship and shared faith have become more profound over time. They also highlight the importance of continually trying new things, making small improvements, and the necessity of patience and support in spiritual growth.The dynamic between Joe and Father Boniface, illustrated through this heartfelt conversation, showcases the central theme of Father and Joe: fostering connections with oneself, others, and God.

“Each time I speak, someone comes up crying, saying they finally feel seen. That's how I know the healing matters.” —Babs Walters Babs Walters has spent her life helping others find their voice—first through corporate training, and now through the courageous act of telling her own story. In this heartfelt episode of Uncorking a Story, Babs joins me to discuss her raw and inspiring memoir Facing the Jaguar, a story decades in the making. As a survivor of domestic violence and sexual abuse, Babs unpacks the long journey from disassociation to healing, how generational trauma shaped her family history, and how facing her own metaphorical jaguar allowed her to break a painful cycle. With grace, wisdom, and just the right amount of humor, Babs proves it's never too late to speak your truth—or publish your first memoir at 80. Key Takeaways: The Healing Power of Storytelling – Writing Facing the Jaguar was not only cathartic for Babs but also a gift to others walking through their own trauma. Finding the Through Thread – The image of a jaguar chasing her in dreams as a child became a powerful metaphor for her survival and title of her memoir. Memoir Writing is Collaborative – From courses to accountability partners, Babs emphasizes that memoir isn't a solitary act—it takes a village. Generational Trauma is Real – Babs' parents were both survivors of their own unresolved pain. Understanding their stories helped her find grace for theirs. Secrets Hurt – Whether it's incest, adoption, or addiction, families often avoid discussing difficult truths—and that silence causes lasting damage. It's Never Too Late – Babs published her first memoir at 80, reminding us all that the right time to share your truth is when you're ready. Encouragement is Courage Given – Through public speaking and advocacy, Babs continues to give others permission—and courage—to share their secrets.
