As 2025 comes to a close, it's easy to fall into comparison, regret, or the pressure of feeling like you didn't do enough. In this final episode of the year, we're talking about reflection—not rumination. This episode is an invitation to look back with grace, not judgment, and to move forward with faith, peace, and confidence in God's timing. Drawing from Philippians 3:13–14, we explore what it means to press on toward the upward call of Christ Jesus—not by striving, but by trusting God with what has been planted, pruned, and grown in you this year. You may not be where you want to be, but you are not where you used to be—and God is not finished with you yet. In this episode, you'll learn: The difference between healthy reflection and harmful rumination How to guard your mind against intrusive thoughts at the end of the year Why God measures obedience, not outcomes How to end 2025 with a clean heart and clear vision Why you're not starting over—you're going deeper I'm also inviting you to join my free 5-day Becoming a Woman of Value Challenge, designed to help you release striving, reset your identity in Christ, and step into the new year grounded in peace and purpose.

Episode 228 of Transition Drill Podcast explores identity loss, career-ending injury, and post-service reinvention for Navy Divers and military professionals navigating an unexpected transition. You'll hear Tommy McConnell on the psychological crash that followed his 2018 diving injury, and what it actually took to rebuild purpose, competence, and direction after the uniform came off.Tommy's story begins well before the injury. He walks through his decision to join the Navy, shipping to boot camp in May, 2011, and earning his place in the Navy Diver community. He explains the pride that came with mastering a demanding craft and the quiet confidence built through repetition, competence, and trust in teammates. That foundation carried him into real-world operations, including the high-profile F/A-18 recovery mission in the Persian Gulf, where technical skill and discipline mattered more than recognition.In 2018, everything changed. A career-ending diving injury shut the door on Navy diving and forced a transition he wasn't mentally prepared for. Tommy shares his blunt story of what came next. He describes a bad period after leaving the Navy marked by depression, loss of identity, and a sense that the skills that once defined him no longer had a place. Like many veterans and first responders, he struggled with the silence that follows service, when structure disappears and no one is telling you where you belong next.What makes this conversation valuable is how specific Tommy is about climbing out of that hole. He didn't reinvent himself from scratch. He leveraged what he already knew. Drawing on his dive background, he entered the Unmanned Underwater Vehicle industry, first as a contractor operating UUV systems, then progressing into a role with a San Diego-based company where he now trains and mentors other UUV operators. The work restored competence, responsibility, and a sense of contribution.At the same time, Tommy revisited something he had put on hold while on active duty. He resurrected his clothing brand, 15 Fathoms, not as a hobby but as a deliberate reclaiming of ownership and identity outside the Navy.This episode speaks directly to veterans and first responders facing forced transitions, medical retirements, or identity loss after service. Tommy's experience shows that recovery isn't about finding something entirely new. It's about reconnecting with what you already know, taking responsibility for your next chapter, and rebuilding purpose one decision at a time.The best podcast for military veterans, police officers, firefighters, and first responders preparing for veteran transition and life after service. Helping you plan and implement strategies to prepare for your transition into civilian life.

Sorry for questionable audio.In the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judea, and Herod being tetrarch of Galilee, and his brother Philip tetrarch of the region of Ituraea and Trachonitis, and Lysanias tetrarch of Abilene, 2 during the high priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas, the word of God came to John the son of Zechariah in the wilderness. 3 And he went into all the region around the Jordan, proclaiming a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins. 4 As it is written in the book of the words of Isaiah the prophet,“The voice of one crying in the wilderness:‘Prepare the way of the Lord,[a] make his paths straight.5 Every valley shall be filled, and every mountain and hill shall be made low,and the crooked shall become straight, and the rough places shall become level ways,6 and all flesh shall see the salvation of God.'”7 He said therefore to the crowds that came out to be baptized by him, “You brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the wrath to come? 8 Bear fruits in keeping with repentance. And do not begin to say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our father.' For I tell you, God is able from these stones to raise up children for Abraham. 9 Even now the axe is laid to the root of the trees. Every tree therefore that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.”10 And the crowds asked him, “What then shall we do?” 11 And he answered them, “Whoever has two tunics[b] is to share with him who has none, and whoever has food is to do likewise.” 12 Tax collectors also came to be baptized and said to him, “Teacher, what shall we do?” 13 And he said to them, “Collect no more than you are authorized to do.” 14 Soldiers also asked him, “And we, what shall we do?” And he said to them, “Do not extort money from anyone by threats or by false accusation, and be content with your wages.”15 As the people were in expectation, and all were questioning in their hearts concerning John, whether he might be the Christ, 16 John answered them all, saying, “I baptize you with water, but he who is mightier than I is coming, the strap of whose sandals I am not worthy to untie. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire. 17 His winnowing fork is in his hand, to clear his threshing floor and to gather the wheat into his barn, but the chaff he will burn with unquenchable fire.”18 So with many other exhortations he preached good news to the people. 19 But Herod the tetrarch, who had been reproved by him for Herodias, his brother's wife, and for all the evil things that Herod had done, 20 added this to them all, that he locked up John in prison.

You're not alone if you have tough, scary, horrible thoughts after ending a wanted pregnancy, terminating a wanted pregnancy, having an abortion for medical reasons. When you've lost a baby in pregnancy after a horrible prenatal diagnosis, of course not all your thoughts are cheery and light.In this episode I talk about some hard thoughts you may be struggling with, and a safe space you could join if you'd like someone to hold you through it.The thoughts that keep you up at 3am after TFMR aren't talked about in regular grief spaces. They're too raw, too complex, too misunderstood. But having these thoughts doesn't make you a monster… it makes you HUMAN.In this solo episode, I share 5 of the toughest thoughts TFMR parents carry, from hoping your baby would die naturally to realizing there's no safe time in pregnancy. These aren't easy to hear, but if you've had them, you need to know you're not alone and you're not broken. We hold these thoughts together because that's the only way they become bearable.Special holiday support package with a 1:1 session AND "Peace of Mind: Audio mindfulness program for TFMR parents" here: https://www.thetfmrdoula.com/holiday-supportSTART 1on1 SUPPORT NOW:

Authors Between the Covers: What It Takes to Write Your Heart Out
About Angela D. Glascock: Let’s be honest: I’m writing this bio. Me. Angela D. Glascock. The author of the book you stumbled upon (Locksmith at the End of the World). So, I’m not going to write about myself in third person because that's awkward. My book, Locksmith at the End of the World: A Dead Silence Novella is about a zombie apocalypse primarily from a dog's point of view; however, shortly after I published it I realized that the book represents the personal apocalypse my family and I experienced after we lost my sister to suicide. When I examined my little zombie book as if it were assigned to me for a literature class, I realized the underlying themes and subjects represented more than what I'd written: zombies (shamblers or WrongHumans) are the loss, the guilt, the anger. My two female characters (Emma and Lucy) represent strength and perseverance: survive all the loss and keep going, regardless of all the nasty stuff floating around in your head. Chester, the dog—the character I most relate to—finds himself thrust into a situation where his person is gone, and his world is a shambles. I’m currently working on the sequel to Locksmith, tentatively titled Foothills and Hollers. I have a blog (who doesn't?) called Biggest, Brightest Star in the Sky: Mostly True Tales. Here I post some of my creative non-fiction pieces, editorials, and essays. My blog is a mix of entertaining (I hope) and seriousness. You’ll find stories I've collected from my dad about growing up in northern Virginia and all the shenanigans and things you couldn’t get away with today. There are also essays about life after losing my sister to suicide. Like most writers, I read A LOT. My favorite genres are memoir and thrillers, but I often indulge in post-apocalyptic and zombie literature. In 1998, my personal essay “Pictures” was chosen for publication in 25 Best Virginia Community College Student Essays: 1998: the Personal Essay. I also have pieces in the Writers of Chantilly anthologies (2016) Rewrite the Ending to… (“Hemorrhage”), (2017) Soundtracks of Our Lives (“Mental Souvenirs” and “River Music”) and (2018) Islands (“Love’s Crimson Caress”). Currently, I am an editorial writer for our neighborhood newspaper, I’m working on a book about my sister, and a book about my grandfather. Angela is a member of the Writers of Chantilly. Learn more here: writersofchantilly.blogspot.com “Locksmith at the End of the World,” by Angela Glascock About Locksmith at the End of the World: A Dead Silence Novella: Dead Silence, Part One: The zombie apocalypse from a dog's point of view. When his person has a heart attack and dies, Chester the dog is thrust into a world where wronghumans stalk in silence and humans become deadly in an instant. He's hungry. He's hurt. He's alone. Wounded while fleeing her burning town, Lucy seeks medical care in an abandoned animal clinic. A locksmith in the Before, she uses her skills to stay quiet and unseen as she loots nearby homes for food as she heals. What she finds in one of the houses gives her hope…and friend, if she can save him. Emma calls them shamblers. The media called them zombies. But in the After, the media is long gone, just like Emma's companions. She's alone in her refuge when shamblers finally break down the barriers and death pours in. Forced into a lonely world where she might be the only one left alive, she moves through the silence, learning survival on the fly while searching for life. Buy the book.

Merry (belated) Christmas and welcome to "dead week"—that weird, quiet stretch between Christmas and New Year when nobody knows what day it is… and honestly, it's kind of wonderful. This is the final Friday of the year, which means we're wrapping up the Ending Well series—seven weeks of looking back at 2025, redeeming the hard parts, and hunting down the goodness God planted along the way. Today's episode is where everything comes together. Not as separate lessons—hearing God, going a different way, pruning, embracing the ordinary, releasing usefulness, becoming the wife and woman I want to be—but as integration: when revelation becomes rhythm. When what God taught you doesn't just live in a journal… it starts living in your nervous system, your choices, your peace, and your presence. We talk about what it means to become the same person everywhere—at home, at work, in conflict, in rest. Not the performing self, people-pleasing self, or defensive self—but the authentic self God created. The shift from constantly feeling "split" to finally feeling rooted. From Romans 7 ("why do I keep doing what I hate?") to Psalm 1—steady, nourished, bearing fruit in season. This episode is a testimony: God is big enough to change you. To grow self-control. To cultivate peace. To help you stop showing up to every battle you're invited to—and still keep your courage when it's time to stand firm. The fire of 2025 didn't leave me untouched, but it refined me. And the fruit is showing up: steadier peace, clearer discernment, deeper roots, anchored hope, and—maybe for the first time—actually liking who I'm becoming. If you feel stuck, scattered, or like you'll never change… come with me. The water's a little scary, but it's good.

It's the day after Christmas, and while the wrapping paper is still on the floor, Norm is already wondering about the one gift Cowboys fans didn't ask for: finishing the season 8-8-1.After questioning why the NFL insists on hijacking Christmas Day (nothing says “holiday spirit” like wall-to-wall broadcasts), Norm dives into a Cowboys win that somehow felt like every other Cowboys game. A fast start, long scoring droughts, penalty problems, defensive issues, and just enough competence to keep everyone arguing about whether this team is “close.”Dallas beats a battered Washington team, but not convincingly enough to feel good about it. Dak shines. The running game shows promise. Penalties pile up. The defense remains allergic to takeaways. And the big question lingers: if the offense is elite and the defense is awful… isn't .500 exactly where you'd expect to land?Norm breaks it all down with stats, context, and his usual brand of dry realism—then wraps things up with the truth Cowboys fans may not want to hear, but probably already know.Chapters00:00:00 - Merry Christmas… Now About That 8-8-1 Record00:01:24 - Can the NFL Leave Christmas Alone for One Day?00:01:57 - A Familiar Cowboys Script (This Time With a Win)00:02:32 - Fast Start, Then the Scoring Vanishes Again00:03:47 - Dallas Finally Bows Its Neck Late00:04:22 - Dominating the Stats, Confusing the Result00:05:04 - Six Sacks, Eleven Penalties, and Self-Inflicted Wounds00:06:27 - Takeaways?

Send us a textIn this Power Surge follow-up episode, Dr. Mel reminds building leaders that leadership growth doesn't require a new role, a new year, or perfect timing. Inspired by A Christmas Carol, this short reflection challenges principals and school leaders to remember that even late in the school year, small, intentional leadership shifts can change culture and impact.Reflection Question:

In this episode, Travis and his producer Eric dive into what to do when the people around you—friends, collaborators, or industry peers—start making public choices that feel off-brand, unethical, or just flat-out embarrassing. They talk through when to quietly distance yourself, when to speak up, and how to manage association risk in a space where stages, podcasts, and social feeds are all interconnected. On this episode we talk about: How Travis thinks about friends or peers who start associating with questionable people (e.g., certain network marketing leaders) and why proximity can change how much he intervenes. The practical ways he “distances” himself: fewer recommendations, less collaboration, muting/unfollowing, and quietly stepping back from certain events or lineups. Why he almost never publicly “calls people out,” and how he uses a sleep-on-it rule to avoid drama-driven content that doesn't match who he wants to be. The responsibility that comes with doing exposé-style or investigative content, and why putting your real name behind accusations matters. How event panels could be more interesting if hosts deliberately surface disagreement instead of running a string of safe mini–TED Talks. Top 3 Takeaways Your level of involvement should match your level of relationship: close friends may warrant a direct, private conversation; distant acquaintances usually just warrant distance. Quietly stepping back—stop recommending, stop collaborating, mute or unfollow—is often more productive than jumping into public call-out culture. If you're going to publicly challenge someone's character or business practices, you owe it to everyone involved to fact-check, seek multiple perspectives, and be willing to put your own name on the line. Notable Quotes “It's not up to me to decide whether someone should use their platform for something just because I wouldn't—but I can decide how close I want to be to it.” “You can't shake off that filth as quickly as you'd like to; who you share a stage with matters.” “Don't completely write people off; if the relationship matters, at least try to understand their perspective before you walk away.” ✖️✖️✖️✖️

“We're positive reinforcement. We're not about punitive. We're not saying that you can't drink. What we're saying is, be responsible.” —Beth McBride “People don't change their behavior because we make them feel bad about it. Shame doesn't work. I would love for people to feel incentivized to make the right choice, supported in making the right choice, and feel that there's a cultural pressure to make the right choice because that is where we'll see a difference.” —Carli SeymourA single choice can change a family forever, and silence around that choice keeps the cycle alive. This conversation sits in the space where grief meets responsibility and where culture quietly decides what behavior gets a pass. It asks why something preventable still feels accepted in so many communities.Beth McBride and her daughter Carli Seymour share the story of losing their son and brother, Bobby, to a drunk driver, and how that loss led them to change Montana law and cofound Bar Fairies, a nonprofit focused on positive reinforcement and real cultural change around drinking and driving.Press play for a powerful, grounded conversation about grief, accountability, and what it looks like to turn heartbreak into action.Bobby's story and the night that changed everythingWhy Montana's DUI laws failed victims for decadesHow Bobby's Law became a realityThe origin of Bar Fairies and why positive reinforcement worksRural drinking culture and why it is harder to changeThe emotional reality of navigating grief while building something newHow small choices can create long-term cultural changeConnect with Heather: WebsiteLinkedInInstagramFacebook YouTubeEpisode Highlights:02:13 Meet Beth and Carli06:09 A Drunk Driving Accident13:49 Why the Driver Wasn't Charged with Felony19:11 Seeing the Driver Again— Trauma After Loss25:11 From Law Change to Bar Fairies 30:08 Surviving Grief and Honoring Loved Ones 39:20 Why Rural States Struggle More with DUI Fatalities 43:18 How Bar Fairies is Funded and Supported49:13 Ending the “Walk of Shame” Resources:

“We all have a role in this, and I think if we're going to takethe ending the HIV epidemic conversation more seriously, we need to have a pretty frank conversation about, you know, expanding roles and not relying so heavily on one discipline to resolve these issues. Dental visits are a missed opportunity. They're an untapped setting. There's missed opportunities and we should be thinking creatively about how to, again, reimagine that kind of space.”Anthony J. Santella On this episode of The HPP Podcast, Anthony J. Santella shares his research regarding dentists' and dental hygienists' roles in ending the HIV epidemic. He provides some historical context and his origin story for the research, details the methods, and shares the results of the study.

Bold Moves: Purple Hair, a Tattoo, and No Take-Backs Patricia (she/her) reflects on what it really means to make bold moves—and how we talk to ourselves when those decisions don't land the way we hoped. Through the very real experiences of dyeing her hair purple for the first time and getting a tattoo she isn't sure she likes, she explores autistic decision-making, sensory overwhelm, masking, regret, and self-compassion. This episode is about reframing regret as information, honoring neurodivergent needs in the moment, and learning how to be kinder to ourselves when we take risks and feel unsure afterward. WHAT YOU'LL HEAR IN THIS EPISODE · End-of-year reflection: How has this year been, and what are we carrying into the next one? · The desire to make bold moves—and the fear that often comes with them · Deciding to dye hair purple for the first time · Letting excitement, doubt, and second-guessing coexist · Experiencing a deeply neurodivergent-affirming salon appointment · The importance of predictability, process explanations, and bodily autonomy · Getting over-hungry, tech issues, and how small barriers can cascade into overwhelm · Allowing a meltdown in a safe space instead of masking through it · Not knowing immediately whether you like something—and the pressure to perform enthusiasm · Scheduling a tattoo the very next day as another bold move · Sensory overload, unexpected pain, and difficulty advocating in the moment · Masking through physical pain and being praised for "doing great" · Immediate tattoo regret and the awareness of permanence · Naming regret without spiraling into shame or self-blame · Reframing regret as data, not a moral failure · Disconnecting from the body temporarily as a coping strategy · How rigid rules around food, ownership, and permission show up in autistic lives · The power of communicating needs instead of carrying silent embarrassment · Challenging the belief that we must always make the "right" decision · Ending with reminders about gentleness, lowered expectations, and honoring sensitivity SOUND BITES · "The goal was to make bold moves—and I did." · "It's okay to have regrets. That doesn't mean I did something wrong." · "I allowed myself to feel what I was feeling instead of masking and falling apart later." · "What we tell ourselves about our experiences matters more than the experience itself." · "Sensitivity is nothing to apologize for. It's how your brain is wired." SENSITIVITY IS NOTHING TO APOLOGIZE FOR; IT'S HOW YOUR BRAIN IS WIRED You are not broken. You were shaped by systems that weren't built for you. You deserve rest, joy, and support exactly as you are. PODCAST HOST Patricia Young (she/her) was a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for over 17 years, but she is now exclusively providing coaching. She knows what it's like to feel like an outcast, misfit, and truthteller. Learning about the trait of being a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP), then learning she is AuDHD with a PDA profile, OCD and RSD, helped Patricia rewrite her history with a deeper understanding, appreciation, and a sense of self-compassion. She created the podcasts Unapologetically Sensitive and Unapologetically AuDHD to help other neurodivergent folks know that they aren't alone, and that having a brain that is wired differently comes with amazing gifts, and some challenges. Patricia works online globally working individually with people, and she teaches Online Courses for neurodivergent folks that focus on understanding what it means to be a sensitive neurodivergent. Topics covered include: self-care, self-compassion, boundaries, perfectionism, mindfulness, communication, and creating a lifestyle that honors you Patricia's website, podcast episodes and more: www.unapologeticallysensitive.com LINKS To write a review in itunes: click on this link https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/unapologetically-sensitive/id1440433481?mt=2 select "listen on Apple Podcasts" chose "open in itunes" choose "ratings and reviews" click to rate the number of starts click "write a review" Website--www.unapologeticallysensitive.com Facebook-- https://www.facebook.com/Unapologetically-Sensitive-2296688923985657/ Closed/Private Facebook group Unapologetically Sensitive-- https://www.facebook.com/groups/2099705880047619/ Instagram-- https://www.instagram.com/unapologeticallysensitive/ Youtube-- https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOE6fodj7RBdO3Iw0NrAllg/videos?view_as=subscriber Tik Tok--https://www.tiktok.com/@unapologeticallysensitiv Unapologetically AuDHD Podcast-- https://unapologeticallysensitive.com/unapologeticallyaudhd/ e-mail-- unapologeticallysensitive@gmail.com Show hashtag--#unapologeticallysensitive Music-- Gravel Dance by Andy Robinson www.andyrobinson.com

We check out the officiating chaos in Detroit, as an offensive pass interference call on the final play of Steelers-Lions evokes painful memories of the 2012 "Fail Mary." Plus, the guys dissect Jalen Brunson's post-game interaction with an Alan Hahn "thumbs up". Finally, don't miss the Moment of the Day: Boomer's strange assessment of quarterback Fernando Mendoza.
This hour, the guys dive into Week 17 by previewing a "get-right" betting opportunity for the Patriots against the Jets before checking in with a "Disclosure Day" extra who shared stories from his nights on set and his previous interactions with Leonardo DiCaprio. Jerry's final update recaps a historic day of futility, featuring the Jets' record-breaking interception drought, an awkward moment from Philly, and a controversial ending in Detroit that brought back "Fail Mary" flashbacks. The hour closes on an emotional note as the team says goodbye to WFAN legend Dov Kramer after 38 years—but not before Boomer delivers the Moment of the Day with a scouting report on Fernando Mendoza that leans odd.
It's another "Blue Monday" as the guys recap a weekend of local football futility, with the Jets surrendering eight sacks and the Giants managing to lose to a Vikings backup—a disaster that has Gio questioning why the team is regressing Jaxson Dart by refusing to let him throw. While the "Tank Bowl" against the Raiders looms to potentially decide the #1 overall pick, the guys find a rare bright spot in Jalen Brunson's 47-point masterpiece that solidified "Knicks Culture" over the Heat. The conversation then shifts from the gridiron to the big screen as Gio shares the movie trailer that finally has him excited to return to theaters, before an emotional final segment where the show bids farewell to WFAN legend Dov Kramer, who signs off today after an incredible 38-year career at the station.
In this episode, Travis and his producer Eric break down how to think about relationships in business—from early-stage networking, to picking partners, to knowing when it's time to walk away. Using personal stories (including a near “bridge-burning” moment that later turned into a restored friendship and new deals), Travis lays out a practical framework for building a network that actually supports your goals without turning you into a ruthless opportunist. On this episode we talk about: Why, early on, you should say “yes” a lot, go to events, and focus on volume and exposure instead of over‑filtering people too soon. How to distinguish between true business partners (like a marriage) and looser collaborations or joint ventures—and why the standards are different. What to look for in deeper partnerships: aligned values, shared vision, complementary skills, and genuine trust. When and how to end client or partner relationships that are technically profitable but are destroying your mental energy. The danger of “covert contracts” in friendships and business—unspoken expectations that, when violated, lead to resentment and broken relationships. Top 3 Takeaways Early in your career, prioritize exposure and reps: go places, meet people, and let real‑world interactions teach you what you actually value in partners and peers. Ending a partnership isn't just about money; it's about whether the relationship still serves both parties without draining your time, energy, and integrity. Before burning a bridge, ask what part you played in the breakdown, own your side, and rebuild your half of the bridge—you might recover a valuable relationship later. Notable Quotes “You don't want all your time taken up by people who have no goals—but that doesn't make them bad people. It just means you need to go find others who share your ambitions.” “Your job in sales and business is not to ‘win' against people; if only you win, that's a problem.” “Most broken partnerships are fueled by covert contracts—agreements you wrote in your head that the other person never actually signed.” ✖️✖️✖️✖️
Chris Plank and Arnie Spanier react to the ongoing Sunday Night Football game between the Ravens and Patriots, Lamar Jackson’s game ending injury & what’s next for Baltimore. The guys then discuss the Lions/Steelers controversial game ending call, Arnie tries to continuously stand up for the Dolphins after news came out Mike McDaniel will supposedly stick around in Miami, but QB Tua Tagovailoa might be on his way out. Chris gives his detailed experience from Oklahoma’s rough loss to Alabama in round 1 of the College Football Playoff, then Todd Fuhrman joins the show to discuss the outcomes from a busy week from Week 16 in the NFL.
