Whitlock also discusses whether Dawn Staley, Becky Hammon, or any woman should be coaching in the NBA. Paul Burkhardt, Steve Kim, and T.J. Moe join the show to talk about whether there are any good teams in the NFL and whether Notre Dame's Marcus Freeman makes sense to replace outgoing Penn State coach James Franklin.

Not every message, voice, or feeling we experience is from God. In our daily prayer and devotional, the apostle John warns believers to test the spirits because our emotions, cultural influences, or even spiritual opposition can lead us astray. God’s Spirit always aligns with His Word, glorifies Jesus, and produces peace and holiness in our hearts. When you face decisions or conflicting messages, take time to pray for discernment and measure everything against Scripture. If what you sense points you closer to Christ and aligns with biblical truth, you can move forward with confidence. If it distracts or divides, wait on God’s timing and continue seeking His direction. Discernment takes practice. The more time you spend in God’s Word and in prayer, the more clearly you’ll recognize His voice amid the noise of the world. God has promised to guide you faithfully—trust Him to do it in His way and His time. Today's Bible Reading: “Dear friends, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God… This is how you can recognize the Spirit of God: Every spirit that acknowledges that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God…”— 1 John 4:1–3 (NIV) Key Takeaways Test every spirit. God’s truth never contradicts His Word. Keep Jesus central. The Holy Spirit’s leading always exalts Christ. Check the fruit. True guidance produces love, joy, peace, patience, and self-control. Wait on God’s timing. Rushing ahead often leads to confusion. Seek wise counsel. Godly community helps confirm God’s direction. Let’s Pray Dear God,Thank You for reminding me that not every spirit or voice I hear is from You. Forgive me for the times I’ve trusted my emotions or rushed ahead without seeking Your wisdom. Teach me to test the spirits and recognize what is truly from You. Guide me through Your Word and Your Spirit, and help me make choices that glorify Jesus. Guard my heart and mind from confusion, and let Your peace lead me.In Jesus’ name, Amen. Related Articles Looking for more on discernment and hearing God’s voice?

In this episode, IRONMAN Master Coach Matt Dixon discusses the evolution and future of coaching on the Purple Patch Podcast. He emphasizes the importance of a holistic approach, integrating performance with life demands, and proactive coaching that anticipates challenges. Dixon highlights the need for mutual investment, collaboration, and simplification in coaching. He warns against the "magic method" and "will it work for me" traps, advocating for individualized training plans. Dixon also stresses the role of technology, particularly AI, as an assistant rather than a replacement for human coaching. The podcast is based on feedback from athletes, with high satisfaction scores and a focus on continuous improvement.

In January 2026, I'm bringing together a select group of conscious healers, coaches, and lightworkers… and teaching them how to: Tap into the Akashic Field of unconditional wisdom and healing on command Connect to a source of Divine Wisdom that can clear away limiting patterns and beliefs at the speed of light (without YEARS of talk therapy or endless “working on yourself” that doesn't create lasting change) Use the Akashic Records as a tool of QUANTUM HEALING to clear away your own “stuff” (fear, resistance, self-doubt, second-guessing, overthinking, overgiving) so you can confidently show up for your clients – and powerfully help them clear *their* stuff as well Turn on your deepest inner guidance and experience deeper states of flow, connection, and purpose – consistently Become a grounded, confident, effective Akashic Records Practitioner and help your clients get life-changing results, so they keep coming back and referring you to everyone they know If you're feeling the call of the Records – this is never by accident. It's because you have Soul-level work to do with the Akashic Records in this lifetime.  The more drawn you feel to the Records, the more likely it is you're meant to use them to (1) heal yourself and (2) assist others in their process of healing and evolution. The Records have been my steadfast companion, Divine Guide, and powerful compass through life for the past 20 years (I first opened my Records when I was 17). Over these 2 decades, they've helped me transform MAJOR stuff and supported me in aligning fully with my spiritual mission and sacred work in this lifetime. This mission, for me, includes making the Akashic Records an accessible and potent Divine tool – actually, a way of life – for healers, lightworkers, and spiritual seekers. This is why I created a one-of-a-kind, immersive Certification Program where we go deeply into the Akasha together.  I'll teach you everything you must know to effectively connect to the Records and use them as a tool of insight and healing not just for yourself, but for the people you're here to serve. The length and depth of this Certification – plus my commitment to offering you an unparalleled level of personal mentorship – enable each student to have a transformative experience and go on a journey of discovery about how you're meant to use the Akashic Records in this lifetime, to heal yourself and others. In our live meetings, there will be time to ask questions, do healing work together, and share your experiences in the Records. You'll also have ample time between meetings to practice the techniques and tools I'll be teaching you – and to connect with fellow students to exchange readings. I offer personalized feedback on all assignments, so you feel supported every step of the way. Interested in joining us? Explore the program - and many student testimonials - here:  https://josephinehardman.com/work-with-me/akashic-records-certification-program/ To apply for the January cohort, please send a note to me@josephinehardman.com  Inner Work 2025 All Rights Reserved.

Use your free will to tune your vibration—lack language attracts lack; abundance language attracts abundance -Energetic “bushwhacking” and how to recover when bad news hits -Choose the feeling now vs. waiting on conditions by asking: What do I want?

Now that we've seen Lorewalking a bit, a listener asks the Lore Watch team what other events in Azeroth's history we should get to go visit through that system. While the listener suggests the War of the Three Hammers -- which Joe and Matt are on board with -- the response runs the gamut of Azeroth's history, from ancient events to a couple from WoW we just weren't there to see, all the way back to the creation of Azeroth herself. They ran through events with dizzying speed, some of which are well known to us, and others which are mostly only known to the loremasters among us.Or maybe we should kill Arthas another time, that would be fun, too.If you enjoy the show, please support us on Patreon, where you can get these episodes early and ad-free!

The Buffalo Bills just lost 24-14 to the Atlanta Falcons, and on this episode of “Fearless,” Jason Whitlock considers whether Bills fans should be concerned about their team and whether Sean McDermott will receive the James Franklin treatment. Danny Kanell joins Whitlock to provide a former NFL player's perspective to the conversation, as the pair discuss the hottest stories in professional football: what's going on with the Bills; Aaron Glenn's struggles; who should and will replace James Franklin at Penn State; Drake Maye being labeled the best quarterback from his 2024 class; how four number-one quarterbacks have had their coaches fired; and more. Paul Burkhardt also joins the show to talk about Andrew Berry's incompetence, Mike Tomlin's comments on the Browns trading Joe Flacco, and the likelihood of Shedeur Sanders seeing some playing time.

Visit the Sex With Emily Website: https://sexwithemily.com/ Sex educator Susan Bratton reveals why the #1 complaint in heterosexual relationships—"she can't orgasm during intercourse"—isn't about broken bodies, but broken information. With techniques that have her inbox flooded with exclamation points, Susan dismantles everything you thought you knew about penetrative sex. Discover why rushing is killing your pleasure, what ancient Daoists knew about rhythm that porn never taught you, and the counterintuitive move that makes orgasm easier (hint: it's not what you're doing now). Susan explains the arousal gap nobody talks about, reframes the vagina in a way that will change how you touch it, and teaches the "Heart Tongue" approach that transforms mechanical sex into connection. A 50-year-old man asks why his girlfriend can't climax during sex despite trying everything. A 25-year-old wonders if she's ever actually had an orgasm and why "squirting" feels like nothing. Susan guides both through tissue activation, sacred self-pleasure, and why the entrance to the vagina needs to be courted, not conquered. Susan claims her best sex ever and credits specific practices for looking a decade younger than her peers. She shares the "Lips-Nips-Clit Axis," why opening matters more than tightening, and her most-thanked technique involving a 10-count that toggles the nervous system. If you've been chasing sensation instead of connection, this episode rewrites the playbook. Timestamps:

In a world shadowed by tragedy, violence, and loss, it can be easy to feel overwhelmed by darkness. As our daily prayer and devotional remind us, when natural disasters, injustice, or senseless suffering fill the news, we can begin to wonder what difference one person can make. Yet Scripture reminds us that even in the darkest seasons, God’s people are called to shine His light. Sophia Bricker reflects on recent real-world tragedies like the flooding from Hurricane Helene, where devastation and hope existed side by side. Amid heartbreak, volunteers, ministries, and churches showed up—feeding, clothing, and comforting those in need. Their acts of love became living testimonies of God’s presence amid pain. Jesus calls us to be like lamps set on a hill (Matthew 5:16), shining brightly for all to see. Our faith is not meant to be hidden but lived out through compassionate action, forgiveness, and sacrificial love. When we live honorably among others—especially in times of crisis—we reveal the heart of our Savior. Even when the world mocks or misunderstands us, our lives can testify to the hope and peace found only in Christ. Being a witness amid the shadows means being willing to enter the hard places, to sit with the hurting, to forgive those who offend, and to love those who seem unlovable. This is how the light of Christ pushes back the darkness—through ordinary believers who let their faith shine through daily acts of obedience and grace. Today's Bible Verse: "Be careful to live properly among your unbelieving neighbors. Then even if they accuse you of doing wrong, they will see your honorable behavior, and they will give honor to God when he judges the world.” – 1 Peter 2:12, NLT Key Takeaways Our actions and attitudes can draw others to Christ, even when our words fall short. True light shines brightest in dark places—times of crisis often reveal God’s people at work. Living honorably and loving sacrificially are powerful testimonies of the gospel. Every good work and every act of compassion points back to Jesus, the Light of the World. Let’s Pray Together Lord of all, You see the brokenness and sorrow in our world. Thank You for sending Jesus, the Light who drives out all darkness. Help me to reflect Your love and compassion to others, even when it’s hard. Teach me to serve selflessly, to love deeply, and to walk in Your ways so that others might see You through my life. Let my light shine brightly for Your glory until the day You make all things new. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

So often, we're drawn to the work of healing our relational wounds because of challenges in our relationship. A partner's behaviour, or the dynamic between us, shines a light on our pain points and shows us where our work might be. But this can raise a difficult question: if we're still being triggered or activated within that very relationship, is healing actually possible?In this episode, I explore the nuance of this dilemma. We'll cover:Why triggers aren't necessarily a bad thing — and how they can point us toward the deeper wounds that need healing.The difference between growth edges that stretch us and dynamics that keep us constantly dysregulated.Signs you can do the work of healing within a relationship, and when the relationship itself may be keeping you stuck.How to find the middle ground: using relational challenges as invitations into greater self-awareness, without normalising constant pain or struggle.Relationships will always bring moments of discomfort — that's the nature of intimacy and vulnerability. But there's an important distinction between the kind of challenge that supports healing, and the kind that prevents it. This episode will help you reflect on where your relationship sits, and what you need in order to move forward in your healing journey.Highlighted Links Free Break-Up Training: The 3 Shifts That Help Anxiously Attached People Heal After a Break-up Free Training: How to Heal Anxious Attachment and (Finally) Feel Secure in Life & Love Additional Resources Download the FREE Anxious Attachment Starter Kit here Join my email list
