Podcasts about Fear

Hey folks! We're gearing up to go to the Wet Hot Bad Magic Summercamp next week but after that we're back on our regular schedule! In the meanwhile here's a chat Scott and Richard had just a week ago about his new tour which is also CLOSE ABOARD!>>>>>>>>>>A special episode from our friend Richard Hatem. Richard is the screenwriter behind The Mothman Prophecies and a longtime friend of the show, and he hosts Richard Hatem's Paranormal Bookshelf. He invited Scott onto his podcast to talk about his upcoming Light in the Dark Tour 2026, a 10-day, six-city run of live shows in September that wraps up at the Mothman Festival in Point Pleasant, West Virginia. We liked the conversation enough that we're sharing it here on the main feed.Along the way, Scott and Richard get to such never-before-asked questions as: What scares our dogs? Where will Scott and Forrest be appearing live in September? Did Abbott and Costello get along? Can anyone find Scott's legendary "lost" appearance on Portlandia? Did Richard schedule too many shows on this tour, and will Susan ever forgive him? Find out the answers to these and many more questions on this episode.If you can make it to one of the tour stops, go.

Britney Haynes Talks BB28 Thursday Eviction Ep Recap, Week 8 Also available on YouTube. Big Brother 28 heads into another tense week as the Icons alliance continues to hold power, but cracks are starting to show. Rob Cesternino and Taran Armstrong are joined by Pooya and Britney Haynes for a Thursday night recap, diving into shifting alliance lines, failed blindside plans, and the latest Blockbuster competition. As the Icons, Angela, Drew, Devens, and Dee, struggle to keep control, the rest of the house keeps missing their chance to flip the script. This episode covers the latest eviction where Lala leaves after a chaotic 4-2 vote, with speculation about whether votes went according to plan or not. The house is buzzing over missed blindsides, with Rick Devens surviving by winning the Blockbuster comp at the last second against Taylor, while many in the house secretly wanted him gone. Angela and Dee debate targeting Devens, and paranoia starts to ripple, with players like Barrett caught between multiple sides. Meanwhile, discussions hit on throwing competitions, Icons considering backdooring their own, and the social fallout from unclear votes. Britney calls out that any of the Icons need to “feel some heat,” wanting the chaos of seeing power shift away from Dee, Angela, Devens, or Drew. Taran breaks down how the eviction nearly flipped, showing how time pressure and poor communication kept the votes from lining up against Taylor instead of Lala. Pooya and Britney both point out that non-Icons like Melody or Taylor could bring maximum chaos if they win HoH and nominate all three Icons, raising the stakes for the alliances. Angela's social reads come under the microscope, as both her and Dee consider selling out Drew or Barrett and suspecting flip-flopping from Barrett. The group laughs over iconic DR moments, strange competitions, and even a botched celebrity interview during the live show. With alliances fragile and the Icons starting to question each other, could the next HoH finally break their control, or will another chance for maximum drama slip through the cracks? Listen in for the full breakdown and find out what's next inside the Big Brother 28 house. 00:00 Big Brother 28 Thursday Night 06:34 Blockbuster Comp Shakes Up Game 14:25 Icons' Alliance Faces New Heat 18:07 Maximum Chaos HOH Predictions 24:05 Barrett’s Game: Playing Both Sides 32:02 Blockbuster Showdown: Devens Survives 38:37 Lala's Eviction and Julie Chat 44:25 Melody's DRs and Zingbot Zings 52:18 Jay Mohr's Celebrity Big Brother Segment 1:06:09 Big Brother 1,000th Episode Backstage 1:14:13 Fears and Tangents Beyond Big Brother Never miss a minute of RHAP's extensive Big Brother coverage!

What happens after you get sober?For many men, this is where recovery gets surprisingly interesting.You can stop watching pornography. Learn your patterns. Read the books. Attend groups. Get accountability.And yet,You can still struggle to handle your emotions.You can become defensive when your wife is hurting.You can withdraw when conflict gets uncomfortable.You can repeat the same relational patterns in a new relationship.According to Dr. Eddie Capparucci, sobriety is only part of the recovery equation.Eddie is a PhD, licensed counselor, author, and leading voice in Christian inner child work. He has spent years helping men understand the deeper roots of their behaviors and develop the emotional maturity needed to actually live differently.In this conversation, we go beyond "how do I stop watching porn?"We explore what it means to become an emotionally healthy man.And Eddie gives us a practical framework:THE THREE FOUNDATIONS OF REAL CHANGE1. Emotional RegulationYou can have all the right information and still be unable to implement it when you're overwhelmed.Eddie teaches men to practice emotional regulation 3–5 times a day for about five minutes, learning their window of tolerance and becoming more capable of staying present when life gets uncomfortable.2. AwarenessDysregulation doesn't only look like anger.Boredom. Fear. Weakness. Overwhelm. Withdrawal.Eddie teaches men to slow down and ask:"What are my mind, body, and emotions telling me?"That awareness helps you catch what's happening before it builds.3. Understanding WhyThis is where Eddie's inner child model becomes practical.Identify the child or emotional pattern that gets activated. Identify the core emotional triggers. Then use his "What I Feel vs. What Is Real" process to challenge assumptions, fears, and internal lies.The goal isn't just understanding your past.It's understanding why you think, feel, and do what you do today so you can respond differently.And here's the powerful part:Insight without regulation isn't enough.That's why Eddie brings these three areas together:Awareness + Emotional Regulation + Understanding Why.IN THIS EPISODE, YOU'LL LEARN:Why sobriety doesn't automatically create emotional maturityEddie's practical 5-minute regulation exerciseHow to discover your window of toleranceHow awareness can prevent emotional build-upHow inner child work explains emotional and sexual patternsHow to identify your core emotional triggersThe "What I Feel vs. What Is Real" processWhy emotional maturity affects marriage, conflict, attraction, and relationshipsWhy real recovery means learning to live differently, not simply maintaining a longer streakOne of my favorite moments is when Eddie talks about his own imperfect moment with his wife.He doesn't pretend maturity means never responding poorly.It means catching yourself, taking responsibility, repairing quickly, and choosing differently next time.Not perfection.Maturity.Not simply avoiding pornography.Learning to lead yourself well.CONNECT WITH DR. EDDIE CAPPARUCCIEddie offers counseling, inner child training, emotional maturity workshops, and practical resources.abundantlifecounselingga.comYou can also email Eddie directly:innerchildmodel@gmail.comOne thing I really appreciate about Eddie is that he personally responds to the people who reach out to him.Understanding the framework is one thing.Understanding your story is another.READY TO GET CLEAR ON YOUR OWN RECOVERY?That's why I created the Personal Recovery Plan, a one-on-one session to help you understand what's beneath your struggle and build a recovery strategy around your patterns, inner world, Heart Hunger, and season of life.

Episode 3 - Why You Fear Change When Your Life Is Fine (And How to Fix It) (The Life Adventure Course) Are you struggling with why you fear change when your life is fine? You might have a stable job, a roof over your head, and a predictable routine, but underneath it all, you feel trapped by the quiet fear of messing up a good life. In this episode of Join Up Dots, David Ralph tackles the hidden psychology behind comfort zone anxiety and explains why so many people settle for an "okay" existence instead of building a life they truly love. When your daily reality isn't a total disaster, taking a risk feels terrifying. You start asking yourself why you fear change, and that subtle inner voice whispers to protect the status quo. We dismantle the root causes of overcoming the fear of failure, exploring how adults trade childhood curiosity for adult predictability. You will discover why comfort zone anxiety is actually a fear of uncertainty rather than a lack of capability, and how avoiding minor awkwardness keeps you stuck in long-term dissatisfaction. David outlines a practical, step-by-step action plan to break free from this cycle. Learn how to name your worst-case scenarios, tear up outdated mental contracts, and practice small acts of deliberate discomfort to rewire your confidence. If you are a mid-career professional feeling stuck, this conversation provides the exact blueprint needed to overcome the fear of failure and step out of the daily sludge.

CELTIC PODFEST AND ARTS MARKET The 2026 Celtic PodFest was a tremendous success. Kinnfolk and The Muckers joined me for our first festival at The Lost Druid Brewery in Avondale Estates, Ga. The festival happened because of many of my listeners who pledged at our start - of - the - year Kickstarter. We had a great turnout, but we could've done better if we had planned it more than a month out. There is now a Kickstarter Pre - Launch Page for our Second Celtic PodFest. You'll find a link in the shownotes. This fundraiser will hopefully allow us to bring a second festival to you. The Kickstarter will launch in September. Will you help?

Troy of The Secret Commonwealth emailed a sad follow up back in March to the news about his friend who was illegally held in ICE custody: "Marc, thank you so much for sharing the fundraiser for my friend on your new episode. It is with profoundly heavy heart that I have to tell you that my friend died last Sunday of a heart attack. He had been moved to a hospital in Mississippi and apparently suffered two successive attacks. His body is being returned now. To say we are devastated and infuriated would be inadequate to describe our state of being. We had just been sending his lawyers important records and documents that we felt, along with his obvious serious health conditions, had a very good chance of securing his release. We'll never know now if that would have proven to be true, but we just needed him to endure a little while longer, which he ultimately could not. He died one month short of a year since being detained by ICE. I have not yet publicly announced this in an update to our fundraiser because, frankly, it's still too fresh and painful to address. But any proceeds we've made will obviously now be put toward the cost of his funeral service. Sorry to impart this bad news, but I mostly wanted to express my gratitude to you for your kind support on behalf of Pejman's family, my girlfriend (who was his dearest friend in the world and who spearheaded this fight for his freedom) and for me. Best to you,"

Let's have some fun. On today's episode of The CLS Experience, Craig Siegel delivers a powerful solo bonus transmission on why your business can only grow as far as your consciousness does. Drawing from his 13 years on Wall Street and his study of Kabbalah, Craig explores the connection between spirituality and business and the difference between making decisions from fear versus consciousness. He breaks down how your business mirrors your inner state, why intention and identity can be more powerful than tactics, and why true success is measured by congruence and growing without abandoning your integrity. If you're ready to build a business that reflects who you're becoming, this one is for you.0:21 Why Consciousness Belongs in Business02:04 Fear vs. Consciousness02:33 The Business Mirror Principle03:53 Why Intention Is Strategy05:53 Congruence Over RevenueEarly Bird Tickets now available for our October live event, CLS: Formation HERE:Check out The Command Room HERE: To join our community click here.➤ To connect with Craig Siegel follow Craig on Instagram➤ Order a copy of my new book The Reinvention Formula today! ➤ Join our CLS texting community for free daily inspiration and business strategies to elevate your day, text (917) 634-3796➤ INSTAGRAM➤ FACEBOOK➤ TIKTOK➤ YOUTUBE➤ WEBSITE➤ LINKEDIN➤ X

One Year Bible Podcast: Join Hunter and Heather Barnes on the Daily Radio Bible, a daily Bible‑in‑a‑year podcast with 20‑minute Scripture readings, Christ‑centered devotion, and guided prayer.This daily Bible reading and devotional invites you to live as a citizen of Jesus' kingdom, reconciled, renewed, and deeply loved. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible! On this September 3rd episode, Hunter guides us through Ezekiel 20–21, Psalm 11, and Revelation 8. Today's readings confront us with difficult images of rebellion, violence, judgment, and a world experiencing the consequences of turning away from God. Ezekiel announces the coming sword, while Revelation gives us the frightening imagery surrounding the opening of the seventh seal and the sounding of the trumpets. Yet right in the middle of these unsettling passages, Psalm 11 reminds us where our hope is found. The righteous Lord loves justice, and the virtuous will see his face. Then something remarkable happens in Revelation. Heaven falls silent. Before the Lamb, there is nothing left to say. Today's devotion invites us into that silence and asks us to look again at the face of God revealed in Jesus. At Calvary, Christ enters into the violence and judgment of this world, not answering violence with violence but overcoming it through self-giving, radically forgiving love. God's dream for creation is not destruction. It is reconciliation, restoration, and shalom. Even when the darkness around us seems overwhelming, we are invited to train our hearts to see what God sees and trust that Christ is making all things new. TODAY'S DEVOTION: Terror and the sword, and the face of God. How sobering these passages are. Ezekiel cries out about the sword that is coming upon a world caught up in rebellion. Revelation gives us images of terror and judgment. The prophets will not allow us to pretend that violence, idolatry, injustice, and human rebellion have no consequences. A world bent on destruction eventually experiences the fruit of its own way. But before we despair, the psalmist speaks: "The righteous Lord loves justice. The virtuous will see his face." His face. That is what God desires. Relationship. Communion. Face to face. God is not intent on destruction. God is intent on drawing his creation into the fullness of life with himself. Yet our violence, pride, fear, and idolatry blind us to his face. Then Revelation gives us this extraordinary scene. The Lamb breaks the seventh seal. And heaven falls silent. There is awe. There is mystery. There is the recognition of everything that is unfolding. Sometimes silence is the only appropriate response when we begin to see the depth of what God has done in Christ. The psalmist asks, "Why do you say to me, 'Fly like a bird to the mountains for safety'?" Where do we flee when the world seems overwhelmed by violence? Where do we go when terror and the sword seem to surround us? We fly to Christ. We fly to Calvary. That is our mountain of safety. At Calvary, the Lamb of God enters completely into the violence of his rebellious creation. And what does he do? He does not strike back. He does not answer violence with greater violence. He stretches out his hands. He forgives. Through his self-giving, radically forgiving, co-suffering love, Jesus enters death itself and breaks its power from within. This is the face of God. Look at Jesus and see. God's dream is not endless destruction. God's dream is a world restored. Humanity reconciled. Creation healed. Enemies becoming friends. The broken made whole. The lost brought home. Shalom. Jesus has come to accomplish this, and God's dream for his creation will not fail. The darkness around us may be easy to see. Violence is easy to see. Fear is easy to see. Division and despair are easy to see. But faith trains our eyes to see something more. Faith teaches us to see what God sees. It teaches us to look at the Lamb and believe that his love is stronger than death. Paul could see the day when Christ would be all and in all. John could see a multitude gathered around the throne. The prophets could see swords becoming plowshares. They were learning to see God's dream. And so must we. Let us fix our eyes on Christ. Let us train our souls to recognize his face. Let us receive his peace, his joy, his forgiveness, and his life. And then let us go into this frightened and divided world as ambassadors of his radically reconciling love. Sometimes the appropriate response is simply silence. To stand in awe before the Lamb. To see his face. To receive his love. And then to become what we have received. That's the prayer I have for my own soul. That's the prayer I have for my family, for my wife, my daughters, and my son. And that's the prayer I have for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Lord God Almighty and everlasting father you have brought us in safety to this new day preserve us with your Mighty power that we might not fall into sin or be overcome by adversity. And in all we do, direct us to the fulfilling of your purpose  through Jesus Christ Our Lord amen.   Oh God you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth and sent your blessed son to preach peace to those who are far and those who are near. Grant that people everywhere may seek after you, and find you. Bring the nations into your fold, pour out your Spirit on all flesh, and hasten the coming of your kingdom through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.   And now Lord,  make me an instrument of your peace.  Where there is hatred let me sow love. Where there is injury, pardon.  Where there is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope.  Where there is darkness, light.  And where there is sadness,  Joy.  Oh Lord grant that I might not seek to be consoled as to console. To be understood as to understand, to be loved as to love.  For it is in the giving that we receive, in the pardoning that we are pardoned, it is in the dying that we are born unto eternal life.  Amen And now as our Lord has taught us we are bold to pray... Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven, give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our tresspasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not unto temptation, but deliver us from evil, for thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. Loving God, we give you thanks for restoring us in your image. And nourishing us with spiritual food, now send us forth as forgiven people, healed and renewed, that we may proclaim your love to the world, and continue in the risen life of Christ.  Amen.  OUR WEBSITE: www.dailyradiobible.com We are reading through the New Living Translation.   Leave us a voicemail HERE: https://www.speakpipe.com/dailyradiobible Subscribe to us at YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Dailyradiobible/featured OTHER PODCASTS: Listen with Apple Podcast DAILY BIBLE FOR KIDS DAILY PSALMS DAILY PROVERBS DAILY LECTIONARY DAILY CHRONOLOGICAL

The Proverbs say that the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, but many modern teachings focus on the love of God while leaving out the importance of fearing God.

In 50 States Of Fear: California Part 2, we leave the haunted landscapes of Part One behind and meet some of the people who made California terrifying. First, there's Peg Entwistle, the talented young actress whose tragic death at the Hollywoodland sign became one of Hollywood's most enduring ghost stories. Then we descend into Synanon, a pioneering drug-rehabilitation program that transformed into an abusive cult complete with forced lifestyle changes, its own armed “Imperial Marines,” and an attempted murder involving a rattlesnake hidden inside a mailbox. Finally, we visit the seemingly sweet Sacramento boarding-house owner Dorothea Puente, who welcomed elderly and vulnerable tenants into her home, poisoned them, stole their Social Security checks, and buried their bodies beneath her garden. Get ready for another day in sunny Cali :) SHOW NOTESBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/scared-all-the-time--7084296/support.Get the latest episodes of our bonus show NEW FEAR UNLOCKED -- and a whole lot more! -- by supporting the show on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/ScaredAllTheTime

Law firm leaders are often so busy putting out fires that they never get the chance to prevent the next one. In episode 634 of the Lawyerist Podcast, Stephanie Everett talks with Debbie Foster about leading operations, the third cornerstone from their book, Be a Next Level Leader (beanextlevelleader.com).  Debbie and Stephanie explore what it means to shift from being the “hero” who solves every problem to the architect who builds systems that help the firm run better. They break down how leaders can help teams prioritize urgent versus important work, clarify decision-making authority, and develop the judgment to make better decisions without constantly escalating them.  They also explain why healthy firms surface problems early instead of hiding mistakes, how solving root causes can prevent recurring operational headaches, and why some law firm meetings cost far more than the decisions being made inside them.  If your days feel like an endless cycle of interruptions, emergencies, and meetings about the same problems, this episode offers practical ways to build systems that create more clarity, accountability, and consistency across your firm.  This week's homework: head to beanextlevelleader.com/resources for a free meeting audit calculator to see what your recurring meetings are really costing your firm.  Listen to our previous episodes on Law Firm Leadership, Systems & Stronger Teams  #633: Leading People in Law Firms: Building Trust, Developing Talent, and Holding Standards, with Debbie Foster & Stephanie Everett Apple | Spotify | LTN  #632: Law Firm Leadership: How to Lead Yourself Before Leading Your Team, with Debbie Foster & Stephanie Everett Apple | Spotify | LTN  #631: Tune In Before You Jump In: A Better Way to Delegate, with Shawn Vanderhoven Apple | Spotify | LTN  #616: From Solo to CEO: Letting Go of Legal Work to Grow Your Firm, with Ellen Williamson Apple | Spotify | LTN  #615: How to Stop Being the Bottleneck and Build Stronger Teams, with Debbie Foster and Stephanie Everett Apple | Spotify | LTN  #530: How to Design Meetings that Drive Results, with Matthew Homann Apple | Spotify | LTN  #522: The EOS Secret to Mastering Law Firm Challenges, with Mike Paton Apple | Spotify | LTN  Links from the episode: Kaleidoscope Conference, September 22-24 in Las Vegas: https://www.8am.com/events/kaleidoscope/ use code “Lawyerist26”    Have thoughts about today's episode?

One month after Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin were murdered in Moscow, Idaho, investigators still had not announced a suspect, made an arrest or recovered the murder weapon, fueling fears that the case could eventually go cold. Public confidence in the investigation had already been shaken by mixed messaging from Moscow Police, including the department's early assertion that there was no continuing threat to the community, a position authorities later softened as they urged residents to remain vigilant. Families of the victims also grew increasingly frustrated by the lack of information, with Steve Goncalves publicly criticizing investigators and considering hiring a private investigator. Moscow Police Chief James Fry pushed back against the idea that the investigation was stalling, insisting detectives were still receiving tips, conducting interviews and reviewing evidence every day.The larger concern was that the Idaho murders were unfolding against a grim national backdrop in which homicide clearance rates had fallen dramatically and unsolved killings could linger for decades. The discussion drew comparisons to older cold cases, including the Lewis Clark Valley murders, the Burger Chef murders and the then-still-developing Delphi investigation, all of which demonstrated the emotional damage prolonged uncertainty could inflict on families and entire communities. The absence of an arrest in Moscow also created a vacuum that internet sleuths quickly filled with rumors, accusations and speculation about people police had already ruled out, including surviving roommates, an ex-boyfriend and the so-called “hoodie guy.” At that point in December 2022, the fear was not simply that the killer might escape justice, but that every passing day without answers could deepen mistrust, paranoia and grief in a community already traumatized by the murders.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

Vice President JD Vance’s charm offensive failed to completely win over skeptical GOP donors who gathered this week in Las Vegas at the Republican Jewish Coalition National Leadership Summit, Haaretz’s Washington D.C. correspondent Arno Rosenfeld told the Haaretz Podcast. There were mixed reactions to Vance’s speech to the crowd of 1,000, meant to be off the record, but leaked publicly, in which the vice president attempted to reassure those attending that, despite his isolationist leanings and association with media figures who regularly peddle antisemitic tropes, that he believed in the “mutually beneficial” relationship between the U.S. and Israel, that he was not “abandoning” the Jewish state and appreciated “American Jewish contributions to the United States.” Vance’s words were a bit more “weird and convoluted” in a strange discussion of “blood guilt” – a term popularized by right-wing pundit Tucker Carlson, as a variation of the term “blood libel” with a slightly different meaning. “It was quite telling that Vance was using a framework that Carlson has come up with to talk about antisemitism,” Rosenfeld said, at a moment in which even the most conservative Jews have been disturbed by Carlson’s conspiratorial theories. On the podcast, Rosenfeld, who covered the three-day event, also spoke with host Allison Kaplan Sommer about the “anxiety” among some present over the dramatic drop in support for Israel among young conservatives, but the lack of any genuine strategy to address it, as well as the primary targets of the attack lines of the speeches: Muslims and socialists. Rosenfeld said he was particularly “struck by the degree of just sort of open animosity toward Muslims and Islam” at the gathering, “because of how much of a focus there was on antisemitism and on extremism and on radicalism and on hate. You would get that in one breath, and then in the next breath, there would be talk about how we need to defeat ‘Islamo-fascism’ and the ‘red-green alliance’ between socialism and Islam.” Read more: JD Vance Seeks to Assuage Republican Jews Worried About His Views Toward Israel GOP Jews Rail Against Democrats at Vegas Confab, but Worry About Their Own Party's Israel Drift Israel's U.S. Envoy Yechiel Leiter Says Government Is Failing to Stop Jewish Terrorism in West Bank Michigan Jews Help Form 'Democrats for Mike Rogers,' With Little Talk of Israel JD Vance's 'Communion' Gives Readers a Chronicle of Unconvincing ConversionsSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Jessica thought the worst part of being a New York City bike messenger was the traffic. Then an ordinary delivery sent her into a silent alley—and into the jaws of something that should not exist. When she awakens inside a facility hidden from the outside world, Jessica learns that everyone she knew believes she is dead. Her rescuers claim they are protecting her from creatures concealed behind supernatural disguises, and that an extraordinary inheritance has given her the power to see what others cannot. Under the guidance of the dangerously charming Agent Sam Johnson, she must learn to navigate a secret world of angels, demons, and beings caught somewhere between. But the ability to see through illusions does not make the truth any easier to recognize.Wickedly funny, gruesome, and morally unsettling, “The Aftermath” is a supernatural descent into hidden bloodlines, seductive power, and the terrible consequences of trusting the wrong savior.Listen on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@chillingtalesfordarknights/

More than half of Canadians say they are afraid of making the wrong financial decision, and half say they have lost sleep over money. Your first instinct is probably that this is about people who do not have enough. But some of the most financially stressed people Joe sits down with have more than enough, and they still lie awake. This episode is for them. A big account balance is not the same thing as a clear plan. For people with healthy savings, financial stress in retirement almost never comes from scarcity. It comes from uncertainty. And the instinct that made them such good savers - the discipline to hold back, not touch the pile, worry about spending too much - is the exact muscle that now works against them. Joe walks through why this happens, what it actually costs, and what a real plan can show you that willpower alone never will.   In This Episode Money is still the number one source of stress for Canadians by a wide margin, more than twice as much as health, relationships, or work, according to the FP Canada 2026 Financial Stress Ind,. And that stress does not switch off at a certain account balance. For people with healthy savings, the stress almost never comes from not having enough. It comes from not being sure. And your brain treats uncertainty as a threat regardless of what the account statement says. The best savers often have the hardest time spending in retirement, and that is not a flaw. The instinct to hold back and not touch the pile kept them safe for decades. You cannot ask someone to switch that off on the day they retire. It takes a real plan, not willpower, to move past it. A couple Joe recently worked with thought they could safely draw between $1,500 and $2,000 a month from their portfolio. Once their pension, government benefits, accounts, and tax picture were all mapped together, the sustainable monthly withdrawal was closer to $8,000 - rising with inflation, throughout retirement. Gaining that awareness of the gap between what they thought was safe and what was actually possible is the whole point. A good plan does not just confirm your fears. Sometimes it tells you to pull back. But just as often, it gives you permission to live - to take the trip, to help your kids now instead of leaving it all behind, to actually enjoy the money you were disciplined enough to save.   About: Your Retirement Planning Simplified is a weekly Canadian retirement planning podcast hosted by Joe Curry, CFP, CEPA, of Matthews and Associates, an independent wealth management firm.

Dave Kalama isn't defined by one sport. He's one of those rare athletes who has spent a lifetime mastering the ocean while helping reinvent how the rest of us experience it; I've been watching Dave and his crew and their contributions, in awe, for decades. Born with deep Hawaiian waterman roots, Dave grew up with the ocean in his blood. His father, Ilima, was an early U.S. surfing champion, and his grandfather, Noah, was instrumental in the growth of outrigger paddling on the U.S. mainland. That heritage became the foundation for an extraordinary career built around chasing fun; surfing, towing, paddling, windsurfing, SUP, foiling and more, while experimenting and innovating, in the name of fun and adventure, all along the way. But… believe it or not, Dave started as a competitive skier in California. When that didn't pan out, he made his way to Maui, immersed himself in surfing and windsurfing, and quickly developed into an elite windsurfer competing at the highest levels. And that got the flywheel spinning. Dave and his incredible waterman friends became the legendary “Strapped Crew.” Together, they pioneered tow-in surfing, unlocking massive waves at places like Pe‘ahi (Jaws) on Maui and forever changing big-wave surfing. Dave then became a central figure in the modern development of stand-up paddleboarding, helping transform SUP from its Hawaiian Beachboy roots into an international sport. He went on to win the Molokai-to-Oahu SUP World Championship, proving innovation and elite athleticism could go hand in hand. Then came foiling, and ultra distance paddling adventures, and anything else that got their juices flowing. Dave and his friends continued experimenting with creative new ways to have fun in the ocean and explore what was possible. Dave hasn't just helped innovate these sports, he's competed and excelled across them at the highest levels while helping others master them too. As a long time coach, he developed Kalama Kamps to help others chase their fun on the ocean. In recognition of all of his contributions, exploits, and what he's provided to the ocean community; Dave was inducted into the Hawaii Waterman Hall of Fame in 2018. What a well deserved honor. I think it's safe to say Dave's goal of chasing fun and somehow making a career out of it has worked out pretty damn well. 0:00 – Introducing Dave Kalama & His Life on the Water 7:20 – Growing Up, Ski Racing & Early Athletic Influences 15:40 – Discovering Windsurfing & Moving to Maui 24:10 – The Evolution From Windsurfing to Big-Wave Surfing 32:35 – Pioneering Tow-In Surfing at Jaws 41:25 – Fear, Preparation & Performing in Extreme Conditions 50:10 – The Rise of Stand-Up Paddleboarding 59:05 – Racing, Training & Building Endurance 1:08:15 – Discovering Foiling & Pushing New Ideas Forward 1:17:20 – Designing Equipment Through Experimentation 1:26:10 – Reading the Ocean & Staying Present 1:37:05 – Longevity, Life Lessons & Final Reflections

Sometimes grief begins long before someone dies. It begins when the person you love is still beside you, but the life you knew together is already changing.In this episode, Teresa Reiniger sits down with Suzy McNamara for an honest conversation about caregiving, anticipatory grief, identity, faith, and carrying more than one devastating loss at once.Suzy spent five years as the primary in-home caregiver for her husband, Bob, after he was diagnosed with posterior cortical atrophy, a rare form of early-onset Alzheimer's. She shares what it was like watching changes begin in his early 50s, protecting his dignity as his world became smaller, and slowly realizing that she was no longer only his wife, she had become his caregiver, advocate, and protector.Then, while Bob was entering the final stage of his illness, Suzy's sister and best friend, Elizabeth, died. Suzy reflects on what happens when there is barely room to grieve because someone still depends on you.This conversation offers validation for caregivers who feel unseen, people experiencing anticipatory grief, and anyone carrying layered losses.About our guest: Suzy McNamara is a widow, mother of four adult children, former primary caregiver to her husband Bob, and author of The Silkworm, the Magician, and the Sister Tree: A Tale of Love and Loss.In This Episode● How early-onset Alzheimer's changed Bob's identity, career, relationships, and independence.● Why grief can begin while the person you love is still physically present.● How Suzy's identity shifted from wife to caregiver, advocate, and protector.● Protecting a loved one's dignity when others do not understand their limitations.● Grieving Suzy's sister Elizabeth while continuing full-time caregiving.● How faith, writing, friendship, and a smaller support circle helped Suzy keep going.What You'll Take Away● Anticipatory grief is real grief.● Caregivers can lose parts of their identity, too.● Protecting someone may require disappointing other people.● Surviving one difficult day deserves recognition.● You do not need a large circle—you need people who can truly stay.MEMORABLE QUOTESSuzy: “There are so many little tragedies in the big tragedy of Alzheimer's.”Suzy: “That's when the grieving really begins.”Suzy: “The caregiver loses their identity for sure.”Suzy: “You do have to build sort of a wall around your heart.”Suzy: “Getting through one day is a huge, huge accomplishment.”Teresa: “Grief does not always wait for one loss to end before another one begins.”EPISODE CHAPTERS00:00 — When Grief Begins Before Death03:33 — Bob's Early-Onset Alzheimer's Story08:26 — The Fear and Shame Before Diagnosis13:28 — When Alzheimer's Arrives in Midlife18:00 — Losing the Identity of Wife and Becoming Caregiver19:48 — Protecting Bob's Dignity and Safety24:59 — Grieving a Sister While Caring for a Husband28:16 — When Caregiving Leaves No Room to Grieve29:26 — The Story Behind Suzy's Memoir33:30 — Finding the People Who Can Truly Stay35:48 — Getting Through One Day Is an Accomplishment39:32 — Suzy's Book and Audiobook42:19 — A Reminder for Caregivers Who Feel Unseen

It began with three slow knocks from inside the wall behind Ava's bed. Then her phone moved across the desk, books flew from a shelf, doors slammed on their own, and eventually her parents watched her mattress begin to shake beneath her.The activity seemed to follow Ava wherever she went in the house, but there was another pattern her parents were slower to recognize. The worse Ava felt, the stronger it became.What they didn't know was that their daughter had been hiding something from them for months.As the disturbances grew more violent, the family was forced to consider a possibility that was almost as frightening as a ghost: maybe the haunting wasn't centered on the house at all.Maybe it was centered on Ava. #PoltergeistActivity #Poltergeist #Ghosts #ParanormalActivity #ParanormalEncounters #Hauntings #SpiritActivity #UnexplainedPhenomena #SupernaturalStories #Psychokinesis #DarkEnergyLove real ghost stories?

David Sedaris is one of America's best-loved humorists, famous for turning the absurdities of everyday life into razor-sharp, deeply human essays. He joins Elizabeth Day on How to Fail to talk about the moments that have shaped him: from dropping out of university and ending up in his parents' basement at 20, to being thrown out by his father and growing up with a parent who seemed to actively invest in his failure. He talks candidly about heartbreak after a breakup at 32, the fear of being alone, grief at losing the people we love and his past crystal meth addiction and sobriety. We also hear about the embarrassment of dropping out of Japanese school in Tokyo at 50…and the possibility of a cameo on The Archers.

Hey y'all ! Welcome to another Wednesday with CWCOI ! In this week's episode, our host, Ally Yost talks about the simple parts of being a follower of Jesus and how we shouldn't lose sight of those. It can be easy for us to start making our own plans and try to control everything and sometimes forget to sit with God and ask Him to examine our hearts. "Fear the Lord, you his godly people, for those who fear him will have all they need. Even strong young lions sometimes go hungry, but those who trust in the Lord will lack no good thing." Psalm 34:9-10 _____________________________________________ ☆ PRE-ORDER 'LOVE THAT LASTS' HERE: https://allyyost.com/en-usd/pages/book ☆ OUR NEW MERCH IS LIVE!

Men set the tone in relationships. Period.And before you get triggered setting the tone is not about control. It's about responsibility.A man sets the tone for how safe you feel to be soft. How safe you feel to be honest. How safe you feel to not over-explain, not defend your character, not walk on eggshells.In this episode I'm breaking down the difference between a man who sets the tone with LEADERSHIP vs. a man who sets the tone with FEAR. One makes you bloom. One makes you shrink.If you have to be masculine to survive your relationship, he's not leading. He's competing with your feminine.IN THIS EPISODE:Why this episode will trigger some women (and why it should) Tone vs. Control: The difference that changes everything5 ways a healthy man sets the tone (without saying a word)Why your nervous system knows before your brain doesIf you feel anxious, masculine, and exhausted - check the toneHow to stop mothering him and let him lead (or leave)Wholeness looks better than desperation - choosing a man who sets a safe toneThis is not about being a "pick me." This is about being a woman who understands masculine energy and refuses to settle for a man who makes you feel unsafe in your softness.

Read OnlineWhile the crowd was pressing in on Jesus and listening to the word of God, he was standing by the Lake of Gennesaret. He saw two boats there alongside the lake; the fishermen had disembarked and were washing their nets. Getting into one of the boats, the one belonging to Simon, he asked him to put out a short distance from the shore. Then he sat down and taught the crowds from the boat. After he had finished speaking, he said to Simon, “Put out into deep water and lower your nets for a catch.” Luke 5:1–4At that moment, Simon could not have grasped the full significance of Jesus' actions. Our Lord chose to preach to the crowds from the boat “belonging to Simon.” When He had finished speaking, He turned to Simon and said, “Put out into deep water and lower your nets for a catch.”Traditionally, the boat has been understood as a symbol of the Church. It is particularly meaningful that this first use of a boat in Jesus' public ministry involved Simon's vessel. Later in Luke's Gospel, Jesus says: “Simon, Simon, behold Satan has demanded to sift all of you like wheat, but I have prayed that your own faith may not fail; and once you have turned back, you must strengthen your brothers” (Luke 22:31–32).In this powerful passage, Jesus entrusts Simon with the unique mission of leadership and fraternal support. Though Simon would stumble during the Passion, his faith would be restored, and his role confirmed, not merely as a disciple, but as one called to fortify the faith of others. This divine commission echoes the symbolic act at the Lake of Gennesaret, where Simon's boat becomes the pulpit from which the Word is proclaimed. And, as is recorded in Matthew's Gospel, Jesus later changed Simon's name to Peter, making him the rock foundation upon which He would build His Church, promising the gates of hell would not prevail against it (cf. Matthew 16:17–19).By choosing Simon's boat, Jesus foreshadowed that the Gospel would go forth from the Church, built upon Simon Peter's faith and leadership. Christ remains the cornerstone, yet Simon would serve as the rock: a foundational witness whose confession and fidelity would uphold the apostolic Church.This moment by the lake is far more than a simple teaching setting. It is a prophetic image of the Church: anchored by Peter, guided by Christ, and commissioned to cast its nets into the deep waters of the world, drawing souls into the Kingdom of God. Christ alone has the power to draw all people to Himself, yet He chooses to do so through Peter, his successors, and all faithful collaborators who serve as fishers of men.As the passage continues, Simon obeys Jesus' command and puts out into deep water. The result is an astonishing catch that is so abundant that the nets begin to tear. Others must come to help, a clear symbol of the necessary collaboration among all members of the Church, working together in Christ's divinely guided mission.We, too, are called to share in that same mission and to imitate Simon's humility upon witnessing the miraculous catch. He fell at Jesus' feet and cried out, “Depart from me, Lord, for I am a sinful man” (Luke 5:8). He was deeply humbled and recognized his unworthiness before the divine presence.Jesus, however, looked upon Simon and those with him, including Andrew, James, and John, and said, “Do not be afraid; from now on you will be catching men” (Luke 5:10). These words are meant for each of us. Fear is often the greatest obstacle to fully embracing God's call. But when we respond with humility and courage, trusting in His grace, we will find ourselves part of the great mission to draw others into the safety of the Church. Reflect today on the sacred image of Simon's boat. See in it a foreshadowing of the Church, and consider how you are called to serve within her. Christ continues to preach from this vessel, to call others into its safety, and to call you to cast your net into the deep where many souls await the Gospel and God's mercy.All-powerful Lord, You first preached from a humble fishing boat owned by Simon. Today, You continue to preach and reach out to those caught in the deep and turbulent waters of this world. Please send me, as You later sent Simon Peter, to bring Your Gospel to those who need it most. Purify me of every fear, so that I may answer Your call with courage and zeal. Jesus, I trust in You.Image via Adobe StockSource: Free RSS feed from catholic-daily-reflections.com — Copyright © 2026 My Catholic Life! Inc. All rights reserved.
