Podcasts about equipped

Today on The Natural Birth Podcast we have VickyVicky is a stay at home mama from South Wales, UK.She's a former midwife who had a deep rooted fear of entering into the maternity care system and actually never did after she completed her studies.Today she supports women on their journey back to health through Ayurvedic lifestyle coaching and Nutritional Therapy. She caters for women's wellness retreats and run workshops on natural health and breast massage. She has a passion for helping women reconnect with the wisdom they already carry, to feel empowered, thrive, and truly take ownership of their well-being. When becoming pregnant herself she felt that the only way to achieve a natural birth was to relearn what birth is supposed to look like in the wild. Her pregnancy was spent developing her intuition, facing her fears and was guided by a deep trust in nature and the wisdom of the body. She decided to freebirth her baby at home. Equipped with both the scientific evidence and her intuition behind her, she knew it was not only safe, but the right path for her. She had a small space to navigate, living in a self built tiny house, which she solved by having the water birth she had dreamed about in a bell tent in the woods  on Halloween morning. It was magical. Curious about Vicky?

Content warning: This whole episode is about sex. It's probably not the episode to listen to around your kids.   Secular Pro-Life's Monica Snyder returns to the Equipped for Life Podcast for another series of episodes, beginning with the topic, "It's About Babies, Not Your Sex Life." Stemming from real-life conversations, Monica and Josh identify many of the various factors that contribute to pro-choice perceptions or labeling of pro-life people as being "anti-sex" and then respond accordingly to each factor.   The Dynamic Duo also provides some fun commentary on the symbiotic relationship between Secular Pro-Life and Equal Rights Institute, and how the pro-life movement as a whole can benefit from similar relationships.   Finally, towards the end, Josh and Monica talk about how snark might be a good last-resort effort in a dialogue situation.   Secular Pro-Life: It's about the babies, not your sex life: 5 examples   Josh Brahm: Relational Apologetics Tips: How to Cultivate Friendship Amidst Challenging Conversations   Josh Brahm's speech on relational apologetics   Gallup's Moral Acceptability poll   Episode 47: Should Pro-Lifers be Snarky?

Knowing the facts about grief can help you navigate your experience of loss. Understanding and navigating the complexities of grief can be vital for maintaining one's mental health. Grief is multifaceted, and it's essential to grasp the facts about grief to support not only ourselves but also those around us.  Grief is a Lifelong Journey One key fact about grief is that it's a lifelong relationship with something we cannot change. Everyone experiences grief differently. This process isn't linear, and there's no timeline for healing. It's essential to recognize that grief doesn't have a definitive endpoint. Instead, it's about learning to live with the loss while integrating it into our lives. Healing Does Not Mean Forgetting A significant fact about grief is that healing doesn't equate to forgetting. Instead, it allows you to remember with more love than pain. This transition involves acknowledging the love and memories without being overwhelmed by sorrow. It's about embracing the joyful moments amid grief, which can help transform the pain into a source of peace. The Role of Grace and Strategy Navigating grief requires a mix of accepting grace and employing effective strategies. Acknowledging the ebb and flow of emotions is crucial. It's about granting yourself the grace to experience and express these emotions without deadlines, demands, or judgment. Integrating strategies for self-care and emotional expression can facilitate the processing of grief, allowing moments of joy and healing to emerge naturally. Community and Connection Another vital fact about grief is the power of community and connection. Grieving individuals benefit immensely from support systems. Simple acts, such as a phone call, a walk together, or acknowledging significant dates, can have a profound impact. Real connections enable those grieving to feel seen and heard, offering comfort that transcends words. Transforming Pain into Purpose Lastly, a crucial aspect of grief is its capacity to transform pain into purpose. Many find that their experiences with loss can lead to new beginnings, helping others navigate similar paths. This transformative power can bring light out of darkness, inspiring a journey toward renewed purpose and joy. Understanding these facts about grief can help you and those around you navigate the complicated emotions that emerge. Equipped with this knowledge, you can approach grief with compassion, patience, and a deeper understanding of its complexities. Remember, healing is about living with gratitude and love, cherishing the memories of those we've lost while embracing the beauty of life. About Margo Fordonski Margo Fordonski is on a mission to help other grieving moms learn to fully grieve. Through compassionate coaching and personalized strategies, she guides grieving moms in finding peace, resilience, and renewed hope. Margo believes that healing involves honoring your child's memory and finding ways to keep them present in your life as you move forward.  Website for Margo Fordonski Book: She Rises  Download the Free eBook - A Holiday Grief Support Guide Read the Full Show Notes and Access All Links

Each contestant tries to prove their gun knowledge dominance. It's a wild ride of bids, bluffs, and banter—who will come out on top? Tune in to find out! The Agency Brief The Militia Act of 1792: Federal Mandate for Private Firearm Ownership Five months after ratifying the Second Amendment (December 1791), the same Congress passed the Militia Acts in May 1792.   The Two Acts May 2, 1792 – Calling Forth Act -  Authorized the President to call the militia into federal service. May 8, 1792 – Uniform Militia Act - Mandated private armament and established uniform national standards (passed on the final day of the session).   Reason for Passage A direct response to St. Clair's Defeat (November 1791), the worst U.S. military loss of the era. Congress responded by: Expanding the professional army (the Legion of the United States) Requiring citizens to arm themselves as a ready reserve — ensuring the nation didn't rely on a large standing army many feared could threaten liberty   Who Was Enrolled “Each and every free able-bodied white male citizen” aged 18–45. Enrollment was automatic, with limited exemptions. Some states broadened eligibility.   Required Equipment (Section 1 — purchased and maintained at personal expense) Musket or firelock (military caliber, bayonet-capable) or rifle Bayonet and belt Knapsack, pouch, two spare flints Cartridge box with ≥24 cartridges (or ≥20 balls for rifles) Officers: additional privately purchased items (pistols, swords, fusils, etc.) Failure to appear properly equipped at muster resulted in fines enforced by militia courts-martial. These weapons had to be military-standard and fit for immediate service, not hunting or sporting pieces.   Meaning of “Well Regulated Militia” in 1792 To the Founding generation: Equipped with military-standard arms Organized and trained at regular musters Inspected and ready for immediate use

Driving a relative newcomer from Peugeot – the seven-seat 5008 GT premium hybrid SUV – a very stylish SUV from the French manufacturer – a stretched version of the latest 3008-model. The Peugeot 5008 utilises a relatively small 1.2- litre three-cylinder turbo petrol engine, aided by 48V mild hybrid assistance from a 15.6kW electric motor and a 0.9kWhour battery – the combination producing 107kW of power. Self-charging the electric mode operates for short periods at low speeds and is seamless in operation. Power is sent to the front wheels via a six-speed dual clutch automatic transmission. The GT Premium is the better equipped of the two 5008 hybrid models priced at $67,990 – a rather handsome 7- seater with Nappa leather upholstery, a panoramic sunroof, no less than six drive modes, massaging and ventilated 10-way power front seats, a swag of driver assist features, climate control aircon to all three seat rows and 19-inch alloy wheels. The interior practical and well thought out with good access to the third row and very comfortable seats. A great 21-inch curved digital instrument display but its sometimes slow to react while the odd shaped steering wheel is hard to position without blocking a lot of the instrumentation.

Why does suffering feel so unbearable in our modern world? In this first installment of a three-part series, Rev. Paul Ipema joins host Jared Luttjeboer to explore how Western culture has left us uniquely unprepared for life's hardships. Drawing on Tim Keller's "Walking with God Through Pain and Suffering," they examine the stark contrast between past generations, who viewed hardship as inevitable, and today's expectation of constant comfort and success. The conversation shifts from cultural analysis to an examination of Martin Luther's "theology of the cross," revealing why grace—not performance—must anchor us when life falls apart.

You're not alone—and you might be experiencing what I call "evangelism fatigue."In this episode, I sit down with Pastor Rob Ventura, author of "Equipped to Evangelize," to strip away the clutter and rediscover what evangelism actually is according to Scripture. Rob brings refreshing clarity: evangelism isn't about numbers, events, or techniques—it's simply sharing the good news of Jesus Christ.In this conversation, we explore:What the Bible actually says evangelism is (hint: it's simpler than you think)Why success in evangelism isn't about conversions, but faithfulnessHow Reformed theology actually motivates evangelism rather than hindering itThe four essential components of the gospel messageWhy we need to talk about hell (and how love demands it)Practical wisdom on when to speak and when to waitThe power of the Holy Spirit in evangelismHow to overcome evangelism fatigue and guiltAbout Rob Ventura: Rob Ventura is the pastor of Grace Community Baptist Church in Rhode Island and has been in full-time pastoral ministry for 18 years. He's been actively evangelizing for over 30 years, including open-air preaching in New York City.

Confused about when to let you teen girl have a TikTok account?  Is she old enough for an Instagram account? Are you frustrated by your teenage daughter's constant use of her phone? Today I have cybersecurity expert Tom Arnold on with some tips on keeping your teens safe from online predators and the conversations you can have with her.   Tom Arnold (CISSP, ISSMP, CISA, CFS, GCFE-Gold, GNFA, GWEB, GBFA) is a cybersecurity expert, digital forensics investigator, and educator. He lectures on digital forensics and incident response at San Jose State University and the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, where he is also helping to develop a new digital evidence and forensics degree program. A co-founder of Payment Software Company (PSC), now part of NCC Group, Arnold has led large-scale breach investigations—some involving more than 7,000 servers—and served as lead investigator in complex threat-hunting operations. He has testified before the U.S. Senate and House on cybersecurity legislation and sits on the steering committee for the Las Vegas branch of the USSS/Cyber Fraud Task Force. He also serves as Operations Manager at Cloud 10 Studios, a full-service animation studio that creates original series, long-form content, and commercial projects. His novel The Digital Detective: First Intervention was inspired by a real-life cybersecurity scare when Arnold's grandson was approached by a stranger on Roblox despite parental controls. That moment launched Arnold's mission to help families and schools recognize hidden online dangers—and to give kids the tools they need to stay safe in the digital world.   Are you looking for ways to communicate with your girl so she can start opening up to you?

Jimmy Donny Cosgrove co-wrote one of the decade's biggest comedy flops: BBC 1 sitcom ‘Warren', starring Martin Clunes. Lambasted on social media and derided by critics, the Daily Telegraph claimed it was ‘the final nail in the coffin for British sitcom'.   Jimmy's agent dumped him. He received death threats. And he hasn't had a show on TV since. In this frank and funny conversation with Olly, Jimmy recounts how he blagged his way on to a comedy course at University; how his heart sank when his show was scheduled in a double-bill with the long-anticipated return of Alan Partridge; and explains why his experiences of the TV sausage-factory, with its endless rewrites and creative compromises, left him bruised and disillusioned… Nowadays, Jimmy hosts a live game show experience. Find out more at showtimelondon.co.uk. _____________ Meanwhile, in the Zeitgeist, Ollie Peart, freshly delighted to furnish the world with a Captain Spronk playlist, learns the latest trends in First Aid.  What's the current advice for performing CPR?  How do you apply for a free defibrillator? And how many heart attacks per year happen outside a hospital environment? Equipped with a ‘mini-Ann' and the Revivr app from the British Heart Foundation, Ollie has the answers… _____________ Elsewhere, down the Foxhole, Alix Fox assists a listener who wants to know how to help his other half as she prepares for the menopause. Explaining how the menopause's three stages (perimenopause, menopause, and post-menopause) comprise a profound physical and emotional transition, Alix reveals the hormonal shifts that can cause brain fog, anxiety, mood swings, sleep disruption, and changes in libido.  Along the way, Alix speaks to clinical sexologist Dr Angela Wright, and recommends the books Burning Up, Frozen Out by Joe Warner and Rob Kemp; The Little Book of HRT by Dr Ellie Cannon and Menowars by Fiona Clark. _____________ Finally, our record of the month is ‘Dead and Gone',  the new single from Leigh-Anne's debut album, Because My Ego Told Me To. _____________ Olly, Alix, Ollie and special musical guests will return with our annual, chaotic Christmas special on 10th December.  In the meantime, you can help support the show into 2026 by donating beer money and/or leaving us a review.
