“I'm a big believer in consuming what you sell and practicing what you preach…it's a useful step on the path to understanding what's possible and for growing in the skill set of standing on stage in front of any number of people that makes your body react and become nervous.”In this episode of The Speaker Lab Podcast, host Grant Baldwin sits down with Melanie Curtis, a world record-holding professional skydiver, seasoned coach, and sought-after keynote speaker. Their conversation explores Melanie's unconventional career path, which began in the finance industry before she took the extraordinary leap into professional skydiving, amassing over twelve thousand jumps, and then eventually public speaking.Melanie opens up about the challenges she faced along the way, including imposter syndrome, persistent anxiety, and the internal doubts that can hold back even the most driven professionals. She reflects on why each stage of her journey was essential and shares the turning points that nudged her toward treating public speaking as a serious business, rather than a side endeavor.Throughout their discussion, you'll hear advice on finding your target audience, building meaningful connections in both women-centric organizations and male-dominated industries, and leveraging storytelling to transform your message. Grant and Melanie also dig into the emotional side of entrepreneurship, the highs of big wins, the lows of self-doubt, and the importance of having a strong support network.Whether you're contemplating your first speech or looking to scale your speaking business, Melanie's story will inspire you to trust your intuition, stay persistent, and redefine what's possible for your own speaking journey!You'll learn:Using speaking for marketing a businessOvercoming resistance, anxiety, and limiting beliefsThe importance of high-level coaching and support systemsHow to practice speaking via Facebook/Instagram livesGradual desensitization to rejection, visibility, and performance pressureTo rely on support networks during discouraging timesDesigning personal boundaries for travel and gigsDistinguishing between type one and type two funAnd much, much more!“If I didn't learn how to manage my fears, how to work with my fears and anxieties, my insecurities, I imagine I would have lived a really small life.”Episode ResourcesMelanie's WebsiteGet Free Speaker ResourcesBook a Call with The Speaker LabCalculate Your Speaking FeeJoin The Speaker Lab Community on FacebookSubscribe on Apple PodcastsSubscribe on SpotifySee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

What story do you tend to tell yourself when conflict happens—“I’m failing,” “I’m unlovable,” “They’ll hurt me,” etc.? Where might unhealed past experiences be shaping how you see and react to present relationships? What would emotional safety look like for you? What boundaries, support, or healing might God be inviting you toward? Where do you sense God calling you to honesty—either with yourself, Him, or someone else? If your current relational or emotional patterns remain the same, where might they lead you? What could healing change? How does it encourage you to know that God does not shame your pain—but meets you in it with compassion and restoration?

In this episode of the Becoming Unshakable podcast, I sit down with Neri Karra Sillaman, and this conversation stayed with me long after we stopped recording. I first met Neri at the Thinkers50 event in London, where she was recognized as a Radar Award winner. The moment she spoke about her work and her life, I knew I had to learn more. This episode is the result of that instinct. Neri shares her powerful journey as an immigrant entrepreneur and refugee, forced to leave Bulgaria at the age of eleven with her family and only two suitcases. She takes us inside what it means to rebuild life from a refugee camp, to navigate shame, loss, faith, and survival, and to carry those experiences into adulthood. What struck me most was how she reframes being unshakable, not as being unbreakable, but as being flexible, grounded in truth, and willing to live authentically even when life does not go as planned. We talk deeply about faith, worthiness, and the unseen forces that carry us through moments when the future feels impossible to imagine. Neri opens up about the scars that never fully heal, the role of self-awareness in leadership, and how community and compassion can serve as the foundation for both personal healing and business longevity. Her story behind writing Pioneers: Eight Principles of Business Longevity from Immigrant Entrepreneurs reveals how sometimes the work we resist is the work we are meant to do. This conversation is about resilience, but it goes beyond pushing through. It is about receiving as much as giving, about understanding your own worth, and about how early hardship can shape a deep capacity for connection, storytelling, and leadership. It is also a reminder that even in chaos, we can hold a vision for something greater. As you listen to Neri's story, I invite you to reflect on this. What part of your own story, especially the parts shaped by struggle, might actually be pointing you toward the life and leadership you are meant to live?

Birth is one of the most profound rites of passage a birthing person can experience — yet in modern culture, it is often shaped by fear, urgency, and medicalization rather than trust, presence, and reverence.In this deeply grounding episode of The Mindful Womb Podcast, Clara is joined by midwife and mentor Anna Lundqvist of Sacred Birth International for a rich conversation about reclaiming birth as a physiological, sacred, and transformational experience. Together, they explore what happens when birth is left undisturbed, how fear biologically alters labor, and why presence may be one of the most powerful tools in the birth space.This episode is an invitation — to slow down, to trust the body's wisdom, and to remember birth not as something to be managed, but something to be honored.What You'll LearnWhat physiological birth truly means — and why it's more than just “unmedicated birth”How fear activates the nervous system and can slow or stall laborWhy oxytocin and endorphins thrive in safety, privacy, and emotional trustHow modern birth environments often trigger biological danger responsesBirth as a rite of passage — shedding one identity and stepping into anotherThe sacred art of space holding for doulas, midwives, and birth supportersWhy nervous system regulation is essential in the birth spaceDaily practices that support presence, intuition, and longevity in birth workHow home birth fits into the global birth safety conversationWhy every birth — including those involving intervention — can still be sacredResourcesTo learn more about Anna's work and her Sacred Birth Worker Mentorship, visit sacredbirthinternational.com or follow @sacredbirthinternational on Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube.***If these topics light you up, please rate and review the show on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you're listening.After you review the show - snap a pic and upload it here - and I'll send you 70 printable affirmation cards as a thank you.Your feedback helps this podcast grow, and I am so grateful for your support!

In Episode 164 of Baseless Conspiracies, Jon Herold and Zak Paine revisit the January 6 pipe bomber narrative, breaking down newly resurfaced claims, recycled media framing, and the continued failure to resolve basic unanswered questions. The hosts examine how familiar fear-based storylines are reintroduced during politically sensitive moments, dissecting inconsistencies in surveillance footage, suspect descriptions, and investigative transparency. The conversation expands into broader information warfare, including how unresolved events are weaponized to reinforce public distrust, justify expanded authority, and distract from institutional accountability. Jon and Zak also explore parallel narratives involving federal agencies, intelligence optics, and media coordination, highlighting patterns that repeat across multiple “unsolved” cases. With their signature mix of skepticism, humor, and methodical analysis, the episode challenges listeners to question why certain stories never reach closure and what purpose perpetual uncertainty serves.
We couldn't get enough of the podcast Fela Kuti: Fear No Man, so to celebrate the show's finale, we're sharing another episode. As you might remember, Fela Kuti: Fear No Man is Jad Abumrad's true tale of one of the great political awakenings in music. In this episode, we hear about Fela's club, The Shrine. It was an oasis of freedom amidst a brutal dictatorship. Once inside – and on the dancefloor – the music intoxicated, enraptured and, ultimately, inspired resistance.

It's time to sprint through the finish line... kinda. Andy, Brendan!, Kevin Van Valkenburg, and PJ return for what may be the final installment of 2025's Year in Review, spanning from the Travelers Championship through Scottie Scheffler's win at The Open. Before the five-event recap begins, Andy is given ample time to celebrate a Victory Sunday (and Monday!) following the biggest Bears win in years on Saturday night. He talks plenty of smack about a Packers team that the Bears may see again in a playoff game very soon and anoints Caleb Williams as the best quarterback in the NFC North. Fear not, as there is a Nico Echavarria Minute to even things out later in this episode! Part 9 of The 2025 Year in Review begins with KVV handling the Travelers Championship, which was a triumphant week for his man Keegan Bradley and yet another collapse by Tommy Fleetwood. Brian Rolapp also burst on the scene with the official news of his hire as the PGA Tour's new CEO. Brendan picks things up at the Rocket Classic where podcast favorite Aldrich Potgieter won a never-ending playoff at a bomber's paradise in Detroit. LIV Dallas also ended in a playoff, won by Patrick Reed, but Bryson DeChambeau managed to be the star of the show anyway at his hometown event. The John Deere Classic featured another playoff at the end, but PJ instead focuses on a group of "olds" complaining about equity stakes in PGA Tour Enterprises as the biggest news of the week. Patrick Roy's son, Kevin, also provided what may be this podcast's Tweet of the Year! Andy then slips in a "Nico Minute" while discussing Chris Gotterup's breakout win at the Scottish Open. He also shares some enlightening quotes from Scottie Scheffler on links golf and Rory McIlroy's public detonation of PGA Frisco. The Open Championship is a team effort, with KVV handling the pre-tournament days of "Nihilist Scottie" and yet another newsworthy caddie-player breakup. Andy researches Thursday and Friday in Portrush, reminding folks of some early leaders like Jacob Skov Olesen and other Storylines Nobody's Talking About from that week. Remember when Matthew Jordan defeated par? Finally, Brendan brings us home as he walks through Scottie Scheffler's coronation and an emotional weekend for Rory McIlroy in his home country. That'll do it for Andy and Brendan on the feed in 2025, but "The Boys" have been tasked with giving Mr. 1,000 his just due after the powers that be decided to end their 2025 Year in Review at Royal Portrush.
The root of our strength is within. The temptations of the world are growing and the pressure to join the migration into the digital cult increases daily. The answers are not found in the world, but in our quiet moments with God... to seek his face and hear his voice. We have to be willing to face our idols, our false worships, the fictions we have built our lives upon... to ultimately tear them down and let God lead in his glory. That place for many provokes fear as we are thrust into the unknown. Fear not.

Sign up for FREE COACHING with Alli – https://alliworthington.com/freecoaching Today, I want to share Chapter 4 of Fierce Faith: "What If They Don't Like Me?" I open up about my own rejection stories and the everyday ways fear of rejection shapes our choices. It's a fear we rarely talk about, but it shadows much of what we do. Think about it—whether we post that picture we're proud of, share a new dream with our spouse, or open up to a new friend, fear is right there, whispering doubts. And most of us don't even realize how much power we've handed it. My prayer is that this chapter helps you recognize and release the fear of rejection, so you can step into 2026 with hope, holy confidence, and courage, embracing your authentic self.

Join hosts Elisa Morgan and Eryn Eddy Adkins as they explore these different practices with Trillia during this special God Hears Her Christmas episode! Notes and Quotes: “We are able to celebrate and enjoy these gifts because He's the giver of all good gifts.” —Trillia Newbell “There's no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.

I believe that joy and faith are a gift, so ask God for it.” —Trillia Newbell “We approach a throne of grace.

This week, I'm answering a listener question that so many entrepreneurs are secretly wrestling with. How do you teach, lead, and claim your authority when your external reality hasn't caught up yet? How do you stay rooted in belief when the numbers are quiet, the clients are still coming, and the proof feels delayed?In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on exactly how I built my business with zero validation and full self trust, why looking outside of yourself for proof will always sabotage your confidence, and how committing to your mission before the results arrive is the thing that creates inevitable success.

As difficult as it is to believe, STRANGER THINGS is coming to an end. The show premiered just one month before The Fear of God Podcast debuted, which feels difficult to fathom for a number of reasons. Stranger Things has also directly influenced the way we cover TV media on the show, yielding to segments like #tvguideposts where we cover one episode of a show at a time.What you are about to hear is our complete coverage of Stranger Things Season 4, which consisted of a focused discussion of each episode with a host of different guests, both old and (at the time) new. We then gathered together some friends for a full discussion of the season as a whole (and to play a very fun Stranger Things Trivial Pursuit game).So, as we all prepare to bid Stranger Things farewell, acquaint yourself with how we felt about the last season. Yes, it's a lot of conversation but it is also briefer than Season 4 itself, believe it or not. Roll the dice on your favorite DND campaign, pop that Surfer Boy pizza in the oven, or just snag yourself some roller skates and a very metal electric guitar.

In this message from 1 John 4, we look at Christmas through the eyes of the Apostle John near the end of his life. After decades of ministry, suffering, and loss, John doesn't offer advice for fear—he offers good news: God is love. This teaching explores: Why fear doesn't just live in our thoughts, but in our nervous system How God's love takes the initiative long before we do What “perfect love” actually means—and how it casts out fear Why the opposite of love isn't hate, but fear How the incarnation of Jesus is God's answer to human anxiety Rather than calling us to be braver, Christmas invites us to receive love more fully—a love that is sacrificial, unconditional, and strong enough to heal even our deepest fears. If fear has shaped your expectations, habits, or faith, this message is an invitation to step further into the love of God—and to discover the freedom that comes with it. “There is no fear in love. Instead, perfect love drives out fear.” — 1 John 4:18

In this episode, Joshua explains that fear is not a stop sign but a threshold: expansion and becoming are always accompanied by fear because fear marks the edge of growth. Control is fear-based and inherently limiting; nothing desired is accessed through control. True freedom is recognizing you've always been free and that limitation is self-imposed through false beliefs. When fear is treated as evidence of expansion rather than proof of danger, it will be much easier to act on inspiration.

A Christmas Message – What God Has Done For Us MESSAGE SUMMARY: The people in and around Jesus' birth were just ordinary people like us. In our celebration of Jesus' birth on this Christmas, we celebrate the event that transformed world history and many of our lives. The birth of Jesus was a supernatural birth and was God's intervention into the Universe's natural order. This birth was foretold hundreds of years before Jesus' birth, and these prophesies were written and recorded, for us, in the Bible. Jesus' birth was the birth, of a child, that did for the human race what the human race could not do for itself. Jesus was born for all people. This baby, Jesus, was born to be a Savior for all humankind. The birth of Jesus was the birth of God as both human and divine – the Incarnation, as the Angels told the Shepherds on the first Christmas Eve in Luke 2:9-11: “And an angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were filled with fear. And the angel said to them, ‘Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.'". In Isaiah 53:4-6, Jesus, birth, death, and Resurrection, as our means for our Salvation, were foretold more than five-hundred years before Jesus birth: “Surely he has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows; yet we esteemed him stricken, smitten by God, and afflicted. But he was wounded for our transgressions; he was crushed for our iniquities; upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace, and with his stripes we are healed. All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned—every one—to his own way; and the LORD has laid on him the iniquity of us all.". God, through His Grace, gave of Himself what we could not do for ourselves, thereby, providing, through the birth of Jesus, us with the means for our Salvation from our sins and for our Eternal Life. This Gift of and by God is what Christmas and Christianity are all about. Is Jesus your Savior? God has given you the greatest Christmas gift that you will ever receive. Have you accepted His Gift and opened His gift into your life? If not, then why not? With your hands open, you can accept God's Christmas gift by saying: “I am sorry; thank you; and please”. TODAY'S PRAYER: Keeping the Sabbath, Lord, will require a lot of changes in the way I am living life. Teach me, Lord, how to take the next step with this in a way that fits my unique personality and situation. Help me to trust you with all that will remain unfinished and to enjoy my humble place in your very large world. In Jesus' name, amen. Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 129). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: I affirm that because of what God has done for me in His Son, Jesus, I AM FILLED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT. If you then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him! (Luke 11:13).

Pastor Taylor Shippy - Luke 2:8-15Have you ever noticed that every time Heaven announces Christmas… Earth is always trembling? The first Christmas wasn't necessarily picture-perfect or peaceful. As a matter of fact, it was actually frightening.A priest afraid to believe again.A virgin overwhelmed by God's call.A carpenter losing control.And shepherds startled by the unexpected.This morning, we explore how Christmas meets us not in our certainty, but in our fears—and why the message of Christmas, “Fear not,” is what God longs to speak into the fears that we may be bringing with us into this season this year.
When our plans are disrupted, then what? Can Christ's "love" help us find our way? (Matthew 1:18-25)
Sometimes the perfect words show up when you need them most. We start with a surprisingly powerful bit of holiday inspiration from Mr. Rogers — a reminder of kindness and humanity that still resonates today. Source: The World According to Mr. Rogers (https://amzn.to/3RKWfzC) Science is completely rethinking what it means to grow old. It's not just about adding years — it's about adding healthy years. And while diet and exercise play their part, researchers are uncovering far more advanced ways to slow aging at a cellular level. Some of the most intriguing experiments can literally make worms appear younger, think better, and live twice as long. Coleen Murphy, professor at Princeton University and Director of Princeton's Glenn Foundation for Research on Aging, explains where longevity science is heading and what it may one day mean for us. She is author of How We Age: The Science of Longevity (https://amzn.to/3GKDKF5). Most of us have avoided doing something — trying out, speaking up, taking a shot — because we feared what other people might think. That fear is powerful, and it holds people back in ways we rarely acknowledge. High-performance psychologist Michael Gervais joins me to explain why this fear is so universal, how it shapes everyday decisions, and what we can do to break free from it. He is host of the Finding Mastery podcast (https://findingmastery.com/podcasts/) and author of The First Rule of Mastery: Stop Worrying about What People Think of You. (https://amzn.to/3RtsDoW). With the new year approaching, many people start thinking about career moves. We wrap up with the personality traits employers value most — qualities that often matter more than experience or credentials.

In “The Imposter”, a woman, despite having no theatrical background, is suddenly inspired to write a full-length play — with the ghostly help of a long-dead actor. When the play turns out to be a hit, she tries to take all the credit for it. But the real author's spirit isn't having it and demands that her name be removed from the marquee. | #RetroRadio EP0571CHAPTERS & TIME STAMPS (All Times Approximate)…00:00:00.000 = Show Open00:01:30.028 = CBS Radio Mystery Theater, “The Imposter” (March 22, 1977) ***WD00:45:34.027 = Eleventh Hour, “Will” (1941-1946) ***WD01:14:24.935 = Escape, “Red Wine” (February 26, 1949)01:43:51.535 = Everyman's Theater, “This Precious Freedom” (October 04, 1940) ***WD02:11:07.323 = Murder By Experts, “Murder By Prescription” (July 11, 1949)02:40:34.581 = Exploring Tomorrow, “The Last Doctor” (February 19, 1958)02:59:01.191 = Faces in The Window, “Lightning Rod Man” (January 17, 1953) ***WD (LQ)03:22:41.516 = Dark Fantasy, “Debt From The Past” (January 16, 1942)03:46:52.517 = Fear on 4, “The Chimes of Midnight” (October 02, 1997) ***WD04:14:52.809 = 5 Minute Mysteries, “Broken Window” (1947-1950)04:19:55.490 = Tales From The Tomb, “Don't Drink With Strangers” (1960s)04:23:35.238 = BBC Ghosts From The Past, “The Boat Hook” (April 15, 1992)05:07:02.739 = Show Close(ADU) = Air Date Unknown(LQ) = Low Quality***WD = Remastered, edited, or cleaned up by Weird Darkness to make the episode more listenable.

EXECUTIVE POWER AND INDEPENDENT AGENCIES Colleague Professor Richard Epstein, Hoover Institution. Epstein discusses a Supreme Court case regarding the President's power to fire members of independent boards like the FTC. He fears Chief Justice Roberts will side with executive power, a move Epstein views as an "unmitigated disaster" that undermines the necessary independence of agencies like the Federal Reserve.

In February, American President Donald Trump signed an executive order which said that South African Afrikaners - descendants of mainly Dutch settlers who arrived in the 17th Century - could be admitted as refugees in the USA as they were "victims of unjust racial discrimination". President Trump's move to prioritise the resettlement of white South African farmers reignited global controversy when he referenced what he has described as a “genocide” against white farmers. Thousands of South Africans have now applied for refugee status in the USA, and are waiting to potentially relocate there. Farmers in South Africa are predominantly white, but farmers and farm workers of all races fear theft and violent crime in the country. Claire Mawisa is a reporter for BBC Africa Eye and recently travelled to meet farmers in South Africa. Kings, or chiefs, in Ghana don't hold much formal or political power, but they are hugely important to people and hold a lot of cultural and social influence. But there are also powerful royal women in Ghana. They've held power in certain parts of the country for a long time, but it seems their influence is now on the rise. It is a story that caught the eye of Stefania Okereke of BBC Focus on Africa. This episode of The Documentary comes to you from The Fifth Floor, the show at the heart of global storytelling, with BBC journalists from all around the world. Presented by Faranak Amidi. Produced by Caroline Ferguson and Laura Thomas.
But as he [Joseph] considered these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, do not fear to take Mary as your wife, for that which is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. She will bear a Son, and you shall call His Name Jesus, for He will save His people from their sins.” All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had spoken by the prophet: “Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a Son, and they shall call His Name Immanuel” (which means, God with us).
