Think you're good at solving riddles? Let's put that brain to the ultimate test—because these 15 riddles get harder with every single step!
St. Ingrid of Skänninge turned her grief as a young widow into pilgrimages all the way to Jerusalem and Rome. Widowed young, the Swedish noblewoman Ingrid began gathering with other women to pray, then set out walking — first to Santiago de Compostela, then to the Holy Land itself, then to Rome — offering every hard mile to God. When she came home to Skänninge, she turned that same devotion into a Dominican convent built entirely around a shared life of prayer. "Holiness isn't something you find alone in a corner — it's something you walk toward, often side by side with others." Ingrid's challenge doesn't have to end when the episode does.

Send us your feedback — we're listeningProverbs 3:5–6 — When the Day Gets Busy, Trust Jesus With Every Step Live from London, England — carrying this morning prayer across the world, from Germany and Kenya to Austria, South Africa and the United States. Three Prayer Themes: Wisdom for today's decisions • Surrendering our plans • Confidence in God's direction Scripture — Proverbs 3:5–6 (NIV) Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight. The morning has begun now. The messages may be coming in, the phone may be ringing, and there may already be more to do than you expected. Perhaps you're facing a decision, dealing with someone difficult, or simply trying to keep everything moving. Before you rush on, pause. Lord Jesus, we bring this part of the day to You. Where we are unsure, give us wisdom. Where we are trying to control everything, help us surrender. Where the path ahead isn't clear, remind us that You can see what we cannot. We pray for homes and workplaces across Germany, Kenya, Austria, South Africa and the United States. Give parents patience, workers strength, leaders wisdom and those facing difficult decisions a quiet heart. Be near to anyone who feels the pressure beginning to rise. Holy Spirit, turn our attention back to Jesus. Keep us from leaning only on our own understanding. The God of Israel has led His people through generations, and we can trust Him with this moment too. Jesús, guía mis pasos y ayúdame a confiar en Ti. Jesus, eu entrego os meus planos a Ti. Guia-me hoje. Jesus, tulungan Ninyo akong magtiwala at sumunod sa Inyo. We don't have to know every step. We only need to take the next one with Jesus. Amen. Blessing: May Jesus give you wisdom for every decision today, steady your heart and guide your steps.

Stage one, double mastectomy, and a woman who refuses to keep breast cancer quiet. Marla Hurley is a business owner, fashion show producer, and mother of three who found a lump high on her chest, pushed for answers, and chose an aggressive surgical path that let her skip chemo and radiation. From dense breasts and high risk screening to posting every step of reconstruction and inspiring other women to get their first mammogram, Marla shows how early detection and honesty can save lives. If this story has helped you think differently about mammograms and breast health, share this episode with family and friends and consider making a donation at therose.org so another woman gets the care she needs.

How did regular diagnostic mammograms shape her outlook when she found the lump?4. What was the process from initial imaging to biopsy and a diagnosis of invasive ductal carcinoma?5. Why did Marla choose a double mastectomy over lumpectomy with chemo and radiation?6. What did surgeons find during surgery that imaging had missed and how did that change her treatment?7. Why is she taking a long term medication for five to ten years and what does it do for recurrence risk?8. What was recovery like from mastectomy and reconstruction, including expanders, fills, and the “great deflate?”9. How did family, friends, and her three adult children support her through diagnosis and surgery?10.

In Psalm 121, we're reminded that no matter where we are in life—whether in seasons of blessing, hardship, or uncertainty—the Lord is watching over us. Our help doesn't come from what we have or what surrounds us, but from the God who made heaven and earth.As we look at the highs, lows, and tomorrows of life, we can trust that God is present, sustaining us and keeping us. Because of Jesus, we have the hope of knowing that God is with us now and will ultimately bring us home to Him.“The Lord will keep your going out and your coming in from this time forth and forevermore.” — Psalm 121:8

I sat down with my daughter-in-law Alley for one of the most requested conversations on the Brave Co podcast: how to actually date well. We dig into why so few people were ever taught how to date, what it really means to be ready for a relationship, and why "dating yourself" first changes everything about how you show up for someone else.From there, Alley and I walk through defining the relationship instead of letting it drift "organically," why trust in marriage actually starts on your very first date, and how leading with intentionality removes so much of the anxiety that ruins modern dating. Then we get into the intimacy ladder, fourteen questions I've used to figure out whether someone is safe, fun, aligned in values, and ready to build a real future, including how to handle a partner's past, how to fight fair, and how to keep God (not each other) as your source of security.If you're dating, thinking about dating, or just want to understand why your relationship feels stuck at a certain level, this episode gives you a real framework instead of guesswork.

My guest today is Tess Fyalka, an award-winning author and leadership coach who helps new and growing leaders step into their next level with more clarity, confidence, and resilience. And here's the truth. Being great at your work does not automatically make leadership easy. There is a whole new skill set required when you move from doing the work yourself to guiding a team, communicating expectations, holding vision, and helping others rise. Tess's new book, Walking the Leadership Ledge: The "New" Leader's Guide to Building Resilience and Confidence at Every Step, brings together 25 years of experience in leadership, management, corporate training, and organizational development. Her work is about helping leaders cut through challenging team dynamics, develop the core leadership competencies they need, and find the courage to keep moving even before confidence fully arrives. Tess and I dish on: • The leadership threshold, and why great workers do not automatically become great leaders • Why clarity and communication are essential in conscious leadership • The mindset shift required to lead with confidence • Walking the leadership ledge and moving forward before you feel ready • Common derailers that can pull new leaders off track This conversation is a beautiful reminder that leadership is a sacred practice.

723: This episode originally aired in July 2025. Here's the thing about personal finance advice: what works when you have $10,000 won't work when you have $1 million. Yet most financial guidance treats everyone the same, whether you're scraping together a $1,000 emergency fund or deciding whether to upgrade to business class. Nick Maggiulli, author of "The Wealth Ladder," joins us to break down how money strategies must evolve as your net worth grows. He's mapped out 6 distinct wealth levels, each requiring different approaches to spending, saving and investing. The levels start simple. Level 1 covers anyone with less than $10,000 in net worth — that's 20 percent of American households. Here, bad luck gets amplified. A flat tire that costs $200 could spiral into job loss and debt if you can't afford the repair. Level 2 spans $10,000 to $100,000 in net worth. Maggiulli calls this "grocery freedom" — you can splurge on the nicer eggs without checking your bank balance. Level 3, from $100,000 to $1 million, brings "restaurant freedom." Level 4, the $1 million to $10 million range, unlocks "travel freedom." Getting beyond Level 4 — into the $10 million-plus territory — requires business ownership or extreme patience. Maggiulli calculates that even saving $100,000 annually after hitting $1 million takes 23 years to reach $10 million, assuming 5 percent annual returns. The data shows income matters more than frugality, especially in the early levels. The median household income in Level 1 is $32,000, but in Level 4 it's $197,000, and in Level 6 it reaches $4.3 million. We discuss why homeownership dominates wealth in Levels 2 and 3, how investment assets become crucial in higher levels, and why many people in Level 4 choose "Coast FIRE" over the grinding path to Level 5.

Every company promotes its best people into leadership, then sets them adrift with zero tools to actually lead. Tess Fyalka has spent 25 years cleaning up that mess. She's the founder of Angle Coaching & Communication, author of Walking the Leadership Ledge, and spent nearly a decade building leadership development infrastructure inside a mid-size commercial construction company before going independent. Two thousand ghostwritten articles and white papers later, she pulled the patterns into a book.In this conversation, Bill and Tess take on the promotion trap that quietly wrecks teams, the lie new leaders tell themselves to avoid hard conversations, and what it actually takes for a star individual contributor to become a real leader of people. Tess walks through "Betsy" — the kind of high-performer companies promote because they assume excellence is transferable, then watch flame out when the wheels come off the bus. She names the Big Lie directly: when a leader avoids a difficult conversation to "protect" their team member, they're really protecting themselves. And the cost of that avoidance compounds.They get into the inside-out nature of leadership development: you can't lead others well until you know your own values, your triggers, and what you're choosing to be in the role. Tess shares her BRRR framework for difficult conversations and why the imaginary scenarios in your head are almost never how the conversation actually plays out. Bill brings his own moments of getting it wrong, including the time he caught himself reflexively defending micromanagement. They close on the metaphor that gives the book its title: when you step into a new leadership role, you're standing on a ledge, and you don't know yet whether the drop is ten inches or ten thousand feet.In This Episode:Why the skills that earn a promotion actively work against you as a managerThe "Big Lie" ineffective leaders tell themselves to avoid hard conversations"Delengaging" — Tess's framework for delegating through genuine engagementThe Betsy problem: what happens when companies promote excellence and expect it to transferHow nearly a decade in commercial construction proved leadership development works anywhereWhy most delegation is really just dumping — and how to tell the differenceAbout the Book:Walking the Leadership Ledge: The "New" Leaders' Guide to Building Resilience and Confidence at Every Step.

This message looks at the tension every follower of Jesus feels. We are saved by grace, not by works, but we are still called to walk in the good works God prepared for us. So how do we take real steps without turning discipleship into religious activity? How do we grow without making it all about ourselves? From John 15, Galatians 5, Acts 2, Colossians 2, and Ephesians 2, this message is a reminder that every step matters when every step is taking us closer to the Vine. Did you accept Christ today?

Shlomo HaMelech said that a person's legs are like guarantors, ensuring he is brought to the places Hashem wants him to be. When a person reflects on the days of his life, he begins to see countless stories of Hashem's hashgachah unfolding in his path. He can recognize how Hashem directed his steps—bringing him to certain places and keeping him away from others. He notices how precise and exacting Hashem's guidance is, how, in mere seconds, the course of events can shift from one possible outcome to a completely different one. He sees how Hashem orchestrated encounters with the people he needed to meet, and prevented encounters with those he was not meant to meet. The more one reflects, the more awe arises, and with that awe comes chizuk in emunah. Sometimes our direction changes suddenly. Sometimes we find ourselves unexpectedly in a different place. Sometimes we meet a person without understanding why, only to see the full purpose revealed years later. And sometimes, it is clear immediately that Hashem was guiding us to be in the exact place we needed at the exact time. A man shared with me this morning how he was at home when his children's bus arrived. Normally, he is never home at that time; his wife usually sends them out on their own. But on this morning, for some inexplicable reason, he felt an urge to go downstairs and watch them onto the bus. He ran down the steps, called out to them, and wished them a nice day. As the children crossed the street toward the bus, he noticed a car speeding and about to ignore the stop sign. He yelled for his children to stop. Seconds later, the car sped past—another moment could have meant tragedy. It was completely reckless to run a stop sign, and in this case Hashem had guided this man's legs to the precise spot to prevent a disaster. Hashem directs us in everything, from the greatest matters to the smallest, because for Him, everything matters. Another man told me his air conditioning unit had broken, and replacing it would cost $5,000—a steep price for someone learning in a kollel. He was given a repairman's number and called him, even knowing the unit could not be repaired. When the repairman arrived, he examined it and said it was in good condition, except for the main part. Then he realized that he had an identical unit on his truck from a previous job, and the part needed was still working. The repairman replaced the part, charging only a small labor fee. Hashem had caused this man to call the exact person who already had the exact part he needed. These are reminders that Hashem's hashgachah is everywhere. The more we look for it, the more we see it. Every step we take, every encounter we have, and every turn in our path is guided with infinite wisdom and care.
The Way Of Wisdom / Proverbs 3:1-12 /. Dr. Doug Webster

Whether in a treatment room, a conversation, or a moment of crisis, she has seen God meet people right where they are—bringing physical, emotional, and spiritual restoration.Through deeply personal stories of provision, direction in relationships, and hands-on ministry, Lillian reveals what it looks like to live a life anchored in prayer and fully available to God's leading.In this episode, you'll be encouraged and equipped to:Recognize God's guidance in your everyday decisionsTrust Him more deeply in seasons of uncertaintySee His provision even in times of lackGrow in confidence through a lifestyle of prayerDiscover how God can use your unique gifts—inside and outside the churchThis conversation will strengthen your faith, expand your vision for ministry in everyday life, and remind you that God is actively guiding your steps—every step of the way.Click here for SHOW NOTES!Start a Her God Story Podcast Club!

Coming in the thick of the second Trump term, What Does the American Presidency Mean? The Need for Interpretation in Presidency Studies is a timely and provocative new title for the Routledge Series on Interpretive Methods. In it, Richard Holtzman sets an agenda for interpretivist presidency research. Using Tulis's The Rhetorical Presidency as a bridge between presidency studies and interpretive political science, the book succinctly outlines how by interpreting presidential words and symbols our understanding of the presidency is enriched, and causal-inferential studies of presidential behaviour, complemented. Though the book directly addresses researchers of the American presidency, as we discuss in this episode of New Books in Interpretive Political and Social Science, it holds lessons for researchers of executive power everywhere. Presidency studies your thing? Other episodes on the New Books Network that might interest you include Coe and Scacco on The Ubiquitous Presidency, and Hennessey and Wittes talking about their Unmaking the Presidency.

Numbers 33 highlights how God's faithfulness is revealed not only in milestones but also in the ordinary, often challenging journey of obedience and growth leading Israel to the Promised Land.
Sometimes your career only makes sense when you look back. In this episode of SharpHR Second Chapter, I sit down with John Adams to talk about how every step in his career journey led him to exactly where he is today. What once felt like separate experiences now come together in a way that truly fits. We also talk about his business, The Too Tall Franchise Guy, where he helps people explore business ownership and find franchise opportunities that align with who they are and what they want next. If you've ever thought about owning your own business but didn't know where to start, this conversation will give you a better understanding of the process and what to consider. This episode is about trusting your path, seeing the value in your experiences, and being open to what your next chapter could look like.
When Jesus stretched his arms out on the cross, how symbolic was it that his death on the cross was for everyone, all people. And then when they stretched his arms even further, it was the pain of death for that love. In fact, every step he made to the cross was for each of us. I want to do a gospel message that embraces the bredth of his love and how nobody is expempt from the work of the cross. And his pain tells us how encompassing his sacrifice was for us.

Michael Easter returns for his third appearance, and this one feels like a relief: a simple way to get stronger, steadier, and more clear-headed without adding another complicated “wellness” project to your life. Ginny Yurich and Michael talk about the Two Percenter mindset, why walking is already powerful, and how adding a reasonable load can quietly upgrade nearly everything—muscle, bone density, core strength, endurance, mood, and even the way you move through everyday life (yes, even airports and errands). They also get practical about getting started with what you already own, why this works especially well for busy parents, and how time outside can turn down the mental noise and help you hear yourself again.
