How do we explain the doctrine of election to children—especially when it causes fear?In this episode, Elizabeth Urbanowicz walks through how to biblically and carefully explain election to kids who may feel anxious after hearing that “not all will be saved, but only those whom God elects.” What if your child wonders, What if I'm not elect?Elizabeth unpacks:Where the word “election” appears in ScriptureWhat Christians agree on—and where they may disagreeWhy God's goodness and justice matter in this conversationThe clear biblical promise that those who seek the Lord will find HimHow to give your child confidence and peace rather than fearThe doctrine of election is not meant to lead to tears. It is meant to lead to trust.
Do you ever finish a conversation and realize you've just given a twenty-minute dissertation to justify a simple "no" or a basic need? In this episode, we're peeling back the layers on chronic over-explaining. It turns out, this isn't just a quirky personality trait—it's a sophisticated nervous system response. Whether you're trying to preemptively defend yourself against being "the bad guy" or you learned early on that your needs weren't valid unless you built a legal case for them, this episode offers a roadmap to reclaiming your voice.In this episode, you'll learn:The "Origin Story" of Over-Explaining: Why we learn to justify our needs to get them met and how misattunement in childhood creates a blueprint for hyper-communication.Over-Explaining as a Survival Tool: The science of how your amygdala flags "emotional risk" and tries to negotiate safety through a flood of information.The High Cost of Justification: How over-explaining leads to emotional exhaustion, self-abandonment, and the weakening of your own self-trust.The "One-Sentence Rule": A practical challenge to state your truth clearly and then—the hardest part—stop talking.Embracing the Pause: Why silence feels like danger to a dysregulated nervous system and how to tolerate the "awkwardness" of letting your words land.3 Takeaways:Over-explaining is a nervous system response, not a personality flaw. If you had to prove your feelings were valid in the past, your brain adapted by explaining itself into safety. You're not "too much"; you're practicing a survival skill that you no longer need.The cost of over-explaining is self-abandonment. When you lead with a defense, you're inadvertently saying your needs aren't legitimate on their own. Trusting your truth means realizing your "no" doesn't require a dissertation.Practice the "One-Sentence Rule" and embrace the pause. Challenge yourself to say what you need in one clear sentence, then stop. Let the silence be there. People who truly see you don't need an essay to respect your boundaries.—Looking for more personalized support?Book a FREE discovery call for RESTORE, our 1:1 anxiety & depression coaching program (HSA/FSA eligible & includes comprehensive bloodwork)Join me inside Regulated Living, a mental health membership and nervous system healing space (sliding scale pricing available)Order my book, Healing Through the Vagus Nerve today!*Want me to talk about something specific on the podcast?

Allergies are more than just springtime sniffles—and they're affecting more people than ever. In this episode, Dr. Anthony Youn sits down with pediatric allergist and immunologist Dr. Zachary Rubin, author of All About Allergies, to break down what's really going on in your immune system and what actually helps. You'll learn why hay fever is getting worse (and why climate change plays a role), the “3 pillars” approach to treating allergic rhinitis, when allergy shots make sense, and why blanket food allergy testing can do more harm than good. Plus, Dr. Rubin unpacks surprising—and very real—conditions like alpha-gal syndrome (a tick bite that can trigger a red meat allergy), aquagenic urticaria (hives from water), and why so many people mistakenly think they're allergic to penicillin. Practical, evidence-based, and packed with takeaways you can use right away—especially if allergies are disrupting your life or your family's.

In this episode of Excess Returns, we sit down with Neil Howe, author of The Fourth Turning Is Here and co-creator of the Fourth Turning generational framework, along with Ben Hunt of Epsilon Theory, to discuss where we are in the current cycle and what it means for markets, inflation, AI, capital flows, and America's long-term economic outlook. From the debasement trade and rising gold prices to global capital crowding out and the structural forces shaping productivity and growth, this conversation connects generational theory with real-world investing decisions.

Ask Me How I Know: Multifamily Investor Stories of Struggle to Success
High-performing professionals often feel exhausted managing friendships without knowing why. This episode explores how stopping over-functioning restores presence, belonging, and nervous system safety — without explanation, conflict, or loss.High-performing, capable people don't usually feel drained by conflict in friendships.They feel drained by management.By reading the room.Anticipating needs.Explaining shifts.Making sure everyone is okay with how they're showing up.In this episode of The Recalibration, we explore what happens when you stop managing friendships — not by pulling away, but by allowing alignment to settle quietly in the body.Many high-capacity humans mistake regulation for withdrawal at first. When effort decreases and calm emerges, the nervous system may wonder: Am I disengaging… or am I finally present? This episode gently reframes that tension, naming how regulated presence often feels smaller, simpler, and more ordinary than expected.Drawing on identity-level work, nervous system awareness, and story-shaped relational patterns, this conversation explores why familiarity is not the same as truth — and how belonging does not disappear when effort decreases.This is not mindset work.It's not behavior correction.It's Identity-Level Recalibration (ILR) — the root-level realignment that makes every other tool effective again. When identity precedes behavior, relationships begin to feel steadier without force, explanation, or performance.For listeners shaped by early environments that rewarded attentiveness, emotional responsibility, or stability, this episode offers permission to practice alignment without commentary — trusting that safety grows through consistency, not intensity.Today's Micro Recalibration“Where can I show up with a little less monitoring — and a little more presence?”Not to withdraw.Not to disengage.Just to stay.Explore Identity-Level Recalibration→ Join the next Friday Recalibration Live experience → Take your listening deeper!

Most people think selling themselves means talking more. Explaining more. Proving more.That's the one of the biggest mistakes I see, even in some extremely high level business owners or job candidates.Whether you realize it or not, you're selling yourself all the time — in interviews, meetings, conversations, and in how you answer the question, “So… what do you do?”This video was inspired by a message I received from someone who was asked to explain why they deserved a promotion and a chance to move into a different department.She didn't need better words. She needed a better understanding of what actually makes someone choose her.Spoiler alert... she got the job!In this video, I walk through 9 simple moves that show you how to sell yourself without talking about yourself — by shifting the focus to the other person, what they care about, and what they stand to gain.These aren't just interview tricks. They're principles.And once you understand them, they work everywhere — in leadership, business, relationships, and any room where a decision is being made.I also linked a free resource below with the 9 moves laid out clearly so you can bookmark and reference them anytime.
There comes a point where you're no longer tired because you're doing too much — you're tired because you've been carrying too much of everyone else. In this episode, we talk about the quiet exhaustion so many women experience after emotional upheaval — the kind that comes from over-explaining, over-giving, and constantly putting yourself last in order to keep the peace. We explore how losing touch with your own needs slowly erodes your energy, your self-respect, and your sense of self… and why learning to pause, listen inward, and honour your own limits is not selfish — it's essential. Inside the membership this week, we had a powerful live conversation about boundaries, the power of saying no, and why it feels so difficult for so many women — especially when you've been through heartbreak, betrayal, or major life change. And next week, we'll continue this conversation by looking at emotional exhaustion - what it really is, why rest alone doesn't fix it, and how reclaiming yourself begins from the inside out. If you've been feeling stretched thin, disconnected, or quietly overwhelmed, this episode is an invitation to come back to yourself.

You've probably heard about real estate before as a great way to grow or invest your money for the long-term. But that doesn't mean that you can just start with no strategy, or plan, however. In this episode of Women and Wealth, Regina talks with Lindsay Davis, CEO and co-founder of Spartan Invest, about building passive income through single-family real estate. Lindsay explains what "turnkey" investing looks like, why the Southeast has been a strong target for investors, how she evaluates neighborhoods, and the real risks to understand before buying. They also get into retirement planning and why diversifying your income streams early matters, so you can work because you want to, not because you have to.

In this episode's discussions around the Community Table, explaining to clients what to expect, marketing, and getting your tech up to speed. With new clients, take the time to set expectations and explain the process. Assumptions and miscommunication can lead to lower satisfaction when a client's uninformed expectations don't meet reality, even with a successful outcome Starting with a clear explanation of the process can lead to more favorable outcomes. Will the case go to trial, our would a settlement be better? How much would one route cost vs. another? Give clients the big picture. Real life is not a television TV drama. Is your marketing attracting the clients you want? Casting the widest net isn't always the best choice. Explain who you are and what you do honestly. And then live up to those promises. (And for Heaven's sake, get your tech in order. Clients today expect at least that: Hear the common tech shortfalls that turn clients off.)

Did you know that extreme weather disasters in the U.S. are now causing more than 20 billion‑dollar events every year, leaving a growing share of those losses uninsured? As climate change accelerates—and as ecosystems like wetlands and forests are destroyed and degraded—the insurance protection gap is widening, putting households, businesses, and entire communities at rising financial risk. In this episode of Nature Breaking, you'll hear from David Kuhn, WWF's Director for Adaptation and Resilience Partnerships and a contributor to a new WWF report on the insurance crisis. David explains what's driving the surge in uninsured losses, why premiums are skyrocketing, and how climate‑driven disasters are undermining the stability of the US insurance system. He also breaks down how nature loss is stripping communities of their "first line of defense" against floods, storms, and heat—and why restoring ecosystems may be one of the most cost‑effective ways to strengthen resilience and shore up the insurance system. As David shares, there's reason for hope in spite of these alarming trends. With smart policies, better risk modeling, and investments that treat nature as essential infrastructure, we can reduce damages, lower costs, and build a safer, more resilient future.

Motherhood can quietly shift the emotional balance in a partnership. In this conversation, we explore why resentment toward a partner is so common after having a baby and why it is not a personal failure, but a researched, predictable relationship stress point. The transition to parenthood often exposes invisible labor, unequal expectations, and emotional strain that many couples were never taught how to name, let alone fix. We also talk about practical starting points for repairing connection. From making invisible labor visible, to changing how conflict is communicated, this episode focuses on teamwork, fairness, and ongoing conversations that prevent resentment from hardening into distance. The goal is not perfection or 50-50 equality, but shared understanding and intentional partnership. What we discussed: Why resentment often grows after becoming parents The emotional and physical load many mothers carry Research showing relationship dissatisfaction in the first year postpartum How partnership dynamics affect postpartum mental health The concept of making invisible labor visible Dividing responsibilities in a way that feels agreed upon, not forced Why equality is not always 50-50, but fairness still matters Separating the partner from the problem Communicating needs without blame or accusation How suppressed resentment turns into bitterness The value of weekly relationship check-ins Addressing partners who resist conversations about workload Explaining impact instead of arguing details How shared labor improves emotional and physical intimacy Why connection is built through everyday support, not grand gestures Want more?

Host: Stevi Fanning, Windermere Real EstateStevi Fanning brings extensive experience in real estate coaching and strategic business development to the Windermere Coaching Minute. As a trusted voice in the industry, Stevie helps real estate professionals build sustainable, scalable businesses through practical strategies and mindset shifts that drive real results.Welcome to Week 3 of our 28-Day AI Challenge! This week marks a crucial shift AI transitions from being a writing assistant to becoming your strategic business partner.Before diving in, remember Dan Sullivan's "Gap and Gain" principle: Don't measure yourself against an ideal (the gap). Instead, celebrate how far you've come (the gain). Ask yourself: "What can I do now that I couldn't do three weeks ago?"Golden Rule Reminder: Never input confidential client information into AI no names, addresses, or financial details. Client trust always comes first.Strategic thinking separates professionals who are merely busy from those building sustainable, scalable businesses. This week focuses on:Explaining markets more clearlyStrengthening marketing strategyTurning data into client-ready talking pointsAdding value beyond the transactionSharpening what makes you uniqueDay 15 - Market InterpretationLearn to translate market data into meaningful client dialogue. Clients need you to connect the dots, not recite statistics. Upload local market stats and prompt: "Help me explain this data to nervous buyers in a calm, clear way."Day 16 - Marketing Strategy ChallengeHave AI play devil's advocate with your marketing plan. Most agents have marketing activity, not strategy. Ask: "What am I missing? Am I targeting the right audience? Measuring ROI?"Day 17 - Client-Ready Talking PointsTransform market snapshots into compelling conversations. Prompt: "Turn these numbers into three talking points for sellers that create urgency without fear." This becomes your expertise in action.Day 18 - Post-Closing ValueBuild relationships, not just transactions. Brainstorm ways to add value after closing: quarterly equity check-ins, maintenance guides, tax documentation support. Pick one strategy and master it.Day 19 - Your Unique PositioningArticulate what makes you different. Upload your buyer/seller guides and ask: "Help me describe what makes working with me different in a way that feels confident and professional."Day 20 - Strategic Content CreationCreate content that builds trust, not noise. Develop 60-second market updates that position you as the calm, knowledgeable expert clients need during uncertain times.Day 21 - ReflectionAssess your progress: Has my thinking changed? What's clearer? What's faster? What can I do now that I couldn't before? This is your gain.AI doesn't replace your expertise it amplifies it. Agents who thrive communicate better, interpret markets effectively, and build trust beyond transactions. This week, you're learning to do exactly that.Now go implement one thing you learned today. Your business and clients will be better for it.Stevi Fanning, Windermere Coaching Minute

https://rumble.com/embed/v735nqy/?pub=84ufd On this episode of Jesus 911, host William Albrecht dives deep into Eucharistic miracles—what they are, why they matter, and what every Catholic should know about them. Drawing from Church teaching, historical evidence, and modern scientific investigations, William explains how these extraordinary events point to the Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist. The discussion also addresses common objections raised by skeptics, including questions about authenticity, science, symbolism, and Church authority. William responds clearly and charitably, helping listeners understand how Eucharistic miracles fit within Catholic theology without replacing faith, but strengthening it. Whether you are new to the topic or looking to deepen your understanding, this episode equips Catholics to defend the faith, grow in Eucharistic devotion, and confidently answer questions about one of the most profound realities of Catholic belief.

The San Francisco Giants signed Luis Arráez to a one-year deal, with the hope that the three-time batting champion will be able to help solidify their offense after their blockbuster deal that brought Rafael Devers to the Bay last season. However, after finishing at 81–81, are the Giants doing enough to try and compete for a title?On this episode of Baseball Bar-B-Cast, Jake Mintz and Jordan Shusterman examine the questionable offseason that President of Baseball Operations Buster Posey has navigated for his Giants.

Every Sunday at Mass we pray the Nicene Creed. But do we "pray" it or do we only "say" it? Join Fr. Chris Alar as he explains the meaning of what we profess in our faith by looking at each sentence. For example, why doesn't the Creed mention Jesus descent into Hell but the Apostles' Creed does? When we profess that we believe in "one, holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church" do we mean the Roman Catholic Church? Actually not. This and many other insights await you in this video.
