Podcasts about Fear

Inside each of us, God has placed a unique combination of gifts — a divine mix of talents, passions, and personality that reflects His creative design. Yet, as our daily prayer and devotional remind us, so often, fear holds us back from using them. We compare ourselves to others, worry about failure, and hide our gifts instead of letting them shine for God’s glory. In today’s meditation, Whitney Hopler reminds us that fear does not come from God. Instead, He gives us power, love, and self-control to boldly live out our purpose. When we step out in faith, relying on God’s strength, our gifts become like a blazing fire — illuminating His truth and love to a world in need. If you’ve been hesitant to use your gifts, today’s prayer invites you to ask God to reignite that holy fire within you. Let His Spirit empower you to serve with confidence, courage, and joy. Today's Bible Reading:“… I remind you to fan into flame the gift of God, which is in you through the laying on of my hands, for God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control.” – 2 Timothy 1:6–7, ESV

Romans 8:15 — While the spirit of bondage and fear is a work of the Holy Spirit, it has a specific and limited role in the life of the Christian. It is to awaken the person to their desperate condition. However, as Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones argues in this sermon on Romans 8:15 titled “Freedom from Fear,” the spirit of bondage and fear cannot coexist with the spirit of adoption. The former is always replaced by the latter. But how can Dr. Lloyd-Jones claim this when the New Testament has much to say about fear in the Christian life? Are there not numerous examples where Christians experience what could be called a spirit of bondage and fear? Are these examples that prove the spirit of adoption does not replace the spirit of fear? Dr. Lloyd-Jones walks through objections to his understanding of the apostle Paul, detailing how his understanding of Romans 8:15 is compatible with the rest of Scripture. In so doing, he engages a number of pastorally pressing concerns such as depression in the Christian life, demonic aggression against believers, and the Scriptures in counseling. Listen as Dr. Lloyd-Jones hits on a wide-range of topics in this fascinating teaching on Romans 8:15. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/603/29

Barbara made it to the house. Barely.Ben's about to turn it into a war zone.Ben spins suddenly inside the kitchen door and the movie stops being polite. This is where Romero strips the fantasy out of survival and leaves you with splinters, sweat, and the sound of a man trying to think faster than death moves.Zeke Alton plays Ben like a man who's already lost but refuses to lie down. He hammers, he plans, he moves. Barbara, still shattered in Olivia Graham's haunting performance, watches him build their coffin and calls it hope. The boards go up. The windows disappear. The house becomes a box.Then Ben does the unthinkable - he lights the dead on fire.A corpse burns in the yard like a funeral no one asked for. The flames push back the night, and for thirty seconds, it feels like winning. But fire doesn't last, and the dead don't quit. They just wait.The radio crackles to life: "Stay inside. Stay calm."Ben laughs without sound. Calm died an hour ago.Romero doesn't give you relief. He gives you wood, nails, and the slow realization that every choice Ben makes is the wrong choice and the only choice. Barbara floats through the room like a ghost practicing for the real thing. The house groans. The dead press closer. And somewhere in the static, the world pretends it still has answers.By the time Ben mutters, "All right, this is your decisions," and they move toward the glow of the television, the farmhouse has stopped being shelter. It's a tomb with a TV set, and the truth is about to crawl out of the screen.Romero doesn't write escape.He writes what happens when the walls hold but the people don't.The dead are patient.The living are coming apart.CASTNarrator: Jack DanielBen / Truck Driver: Zeke AltonBarbara: Olivia GrahamHarry Tinsdale: Jim ConnorHelen Cooper: Wendy ShaperoTom: Charlie BodinSheriff McClelland: Rob FitzgeraldTV Commentator: Adam PilverZombies / Ghouls: Natalia Castellanos & Josh SterlingLight a match.

Today, I'm talking about one of the biggest things that often paralyzes entrepreneurs, fear. Fear can show up in so many forms: fear of failure, fear of rejection, fear of not being enough, or fear of what others might think. And while it might feel like fear is stopping all your progress and keeping you stuck, I want you to remember this, fear does not release you from your calling. The purpose God placed on your life and business doesn't disappear just because you're afraid. In fact, it's often in those fearful moments that you're being stretched, strengthened, and prepared for what's next. In today's episode, I want to help you face that fear head-on and move forward with faith and confidence. You'll walk away feeling encouraged, equipped, and ready to take bold steps toward the vision you've been called to, no matter what obstacles try to stand in your way.

Truth vs. Twisting: Isaiah 5, Leviathan, and Courage for the Remnant  |  KIB 502 Kingdom Intelligence Briefing Description “Woe to those who call evil good and good evil…” (Isaiah 5:20, ESV). In Kingdom Intelligence Briefing Episode 502, Dr. Michael and Mary Lou Lake address today's climate of fear, the cultural normalization of darkness (especially around Halloween), and the Leviathan spirit that twists truth and communication. From Isaiah 5's “wild grapes” to Jesus' teaching on the vineyard, we explore how societies—and even churches—descend into madness when they reject God's covenant, and how the remnant can stand firm in humility, prayer, and truth. Key Scriptures (ESV): Isaiah 5:1–7, 20 — Wild grapes & calling evil good 2 Timothy 1:7 — “God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control.” John 15:5 — “I am the vine; you are the branches…” What you'll gain: biblical clarity on fear vs. faith, how to recognize Leviathan's twisting, practical steps for spiritual warfare, and hope that God is extending a “loop of mercy” for preparation and harvest.

What if I told you that the eating disorder you're battling isn't really about food at all—it's about rejection? In this deeply personal episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on my own rejection story and how those painful moments shaped my relationship with food, my body, and control. From being told to "get in line by size" at dance practice to corporate disappointments and broken friendships, I'm sharing the rejection wounds that led me down the path of disordered eating. Here's the truth: perfectionism is rejection prevention. It's the way your brain tries to avoid the emotional trauma of feeling "not enough." And your eating disorder? It offers the illusion of protection—a false comfort that promises to fix everything and prevent future rejection. But the only thing it really does is lead to the deepest rejection of all: rejecting your own worthiness. Today, we're dissecting rejection together. I'm meeting you in that painful place so you can discover what I've learned: your rejection story can become your redemption story. Rejection isn't the end—it's God's protection, His redirection, and often the most powerful motivator for transformation. If you've been shrinking yourself to fit into spaces you were rejected from, this episode is your invitation to take up space again, feel free again, and reject the rejection that was never yours to carry. What You'll Learn: [02:30] The moment everything changed: My dance practice rejection story and how one comment shifted my entire relationship with my body [05:00] Why perfectionism is actually rejection prevention—and how it fuels your eating disorder [07:15] The cycle that keeps you stuck: Fear of rejection → False control → Isolation → Disordered eating behaviors → Reinforced rejection fears [09:45] How early experiences shape your relationship with safety (and why you desperately want to be seen, heard, and loved) [12:00] Protection strategies your brain uses: Numbing through restriction, creating physical armor through body changes, food rituals as predictable comfort [15:30] My personal rejection timeline: From Disney on Ice to corporate promotions, college boyfriends to broken friendships—the moments that shaped my story [18:00] The powerful reframe: Rejection is God's protection and redirection. What would you have missed if those doors had stayed open? [20:30] How recovered people reject rejection—practical steps to heal and move forward [23:00] The three questions to ask when rejection voices show up: "So what? Says who? Who cares?" Key Takeaways:

Through honest stories, empowering insights, and actionable takeaways, she'll challenge you to redefine what “playing big” looks like in your own life.If you've been feeling stuck, craving more purpose, or afraid to take the leap—you need this episode. It's your reminder that playing big isn't about being fearless—it's about being brave enough to listen to that quiet voice inside and go for it anyway. 

Most agents are a little freaked out by AI, but here's the truth: it's not here to replace the real estate professional. It's here to replace inefficiency. For years, real estate has rewarded the agents who grind harder, not smarter. The ones who show up earlier, stay up later, and never stop hustling. But the next wave of top producers will be the ones who out-automate everyone else. When most agents hear “AI,” they think job loss. But what if it's actually the key to something real estate's never offered: predictable income and real financial freedom? What if it's the missing link between chaos and consistency in your business? How do we lean into AI and leverage it to run profitable businesses? I was featured on Atlanta real estate broker Glennda Baker's show, Glennda's Gurus.  We talked about how to build a retirement-ready business in a field that doesn't even have pensions. We also discussed how to use AI to scale your brand and influence, and why fear is the biggest wealth killer in real estate right now.   We've been using AI for many years, but companies have been charging us for it. Now we have the choice to use these tools to increase our income, return on investment, and return on time for free. -Marki Lemons Ryhal    Things You'll Learn In This Episode  AI as your income multiplier I boosted my productivity by 261% and my monthly income by 283% by automating repetitive tasks. How can you use AI to do the same, without losing your personal touch? Consistency as your competitive edge Success in real estate isn't about doing more; it's about doing the right things consistently. How can AI help you stay consistent when motivation fades? Automation as your retirement plan Most agents don't have pensions, but technology can help you build one. How can automation create the financial freedom real estate rarely provides? Fear is your biggest opportunity If most agents are too scared to adopt AI, what happens to those who lean in early and master it while others hesitate?   Guest Bio Glennda Baker is an international real estate broker with three decades of expertise, recognized as both a prominent social media influencer and a distinguished thought leader in the field.

Catherine Duncan has been at the bedside for hundreds of final moments and what she's witnessed might completely change how you see life, healing, and peace. After decades working in trauma hospitals and hospice care, Catherine has seen people find profound clarity just minutes before death. Fear disappears, light fills the room, and what truly matters finally comes into focus. The biggest lesson? You don't have to wait until the end to access that kind of peace. In This Episode, We Discuss: • Why years of meditation and self-care can still leave you feeling empty • How unprocessed trauma hides in the body and quietly drives your choices • The simple shift that reconnects you to something real — your heart, body, and spirit • Why manifestation often fails when it lives only in your head • How feeling elevated emotions like love and gratitude actually changes your energy, health, and life • What Catherine has seen at the bedside — moments that defy logic and reveal the truth of who we are Why This Conversation Matters This episode isn't about death - it's about life. It's about learning from those who've already walked to the edge, so you can wake up now, not someday. If you've been searching for meaning, peace, or connection, this might be the most important conversation you hear this year.

What happens when punk rock meets modern faith trends? In this episode, the hosts dive deep into the cultural and spiritual dynamics shaping contemporary Christianity. From the consumer-driven "revival" narrative—marked by increased Bible sales and app downloads—to the troubling intersections of faith and political ideologies like Christian nationalism, they explore what genuine spiritual renewal really looks like. Highlighting the concept of cruciformity, they discuss how the church's role in society should reflect Jesus' teachings of love, justice, and humility, rather than power and control. Through thoughtful conversation, they unpack the transformative power of prayer, emphasizing honesty over performance and exploring how trusting in a good and generous Father reshapes our understanding of faith. Drawing parallels to cultural icons like the Ramones, the episode also touches on how creative expressions and subcultures can challenge the status quo, much like the radical message of Jesus. Join the discussion as the hosts navigate the tension between cultural issues and the theology of the Kingdom of God. What does it mean to live out a faith rooted in service and sacrifice in a world driven by consumption and division? We encourage you to engage in the conversation—share your thoughts in the comments or connect with us on social media as we continue to wrestle with these big questions together.

This week’s episode is something special.

In this episode, Jimmy sits down with his close friend Taylor Palmer, founder of Rope Swing Moab—the crew behind the massive canyon rope swings that have become a rite of passage for We Are The They. Taylor shares how a desert hobby among buddies turned into a fully permitted operation, why Moab's arches and canyons make these swings possible, and how rigorous safety (redundant systems, load cells, and 10x margins) transforms a terrifying idea into a life-changing experience.Beyond the adrenaline, Taylor explains the deeper side of the jump: intention, breakthrough, and brotherhood. From the hard lessons of earning permits with the BLM, to stories of people leaving addictions and grief on the cliff, to his own journey from welding grind to dream job—and even a quick surf trip with his daughter—this conversation is about courage, community, and building a life that actually fits. 00:00 Introduction01:45 From Desert Hobby to Epic Canyon Swings04:00 Safety, Rigging, and the Road to Becoming Permitted10:00 Facing Fear and Finding Deeper Meaning in the Jump18:00 We Are The They Moments & Personal Breakthroughs26:00 Brotherhood, Feedback, and Growth33:00 Balancing Ambition, Family, and Fulfillment41:00 From Welding Work to Purpose and Freedom49:00 Reflections on Courage, Purpose & Next Adventures50:28 Outro

Burnout has become the quiet epidemic of modern work. We tell people to “set better boundaries” or “take more time off,” but the real problem isn't a lack of self-care—it's that most organizations are designed to exhaust their people. Fear-based cultures, unclear priorities, and performative busyness have turned overwork into a badge of honor, leaving even the most capable teams running on fumes. In this episode, Rodney and Sam unpack the systemic roots of burnout and why it thrives inside traditional hierarchies. They explore how teams accidentally reinforce it, how leaders unknowingly reward it, and share real steps to change the system instead of blaming individuals. -------------------------------- Ready to change your organization? ⁠Let's talk.⁠ Get our newsletter: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Sign up here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.⁠ Follow us: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ -------------------------------- Mentioned references: "77% of professionals feel burned out" Prisoner's dilemma Theory Y "American teen experiences as much anxiety as 1950s psych patient" "job market hellscape article" Herbert Freudenberger and 12 stages of burnout "4 day workweek better human outcomes" 00:00 Intro + Check-In: What'a silly or inconsequential project to you've done just for fun? 03:23 The Pattern: Systemic burnout keeps being met with individual solves, which leads to more burnout 08:21 Team burnout red flag 1: Overhelptfulness 11:10 Team burnout red flag 2: Defeatism 14:04 Team burnout red flag 3: Procrastination 16:44 Team burnout red flag 4: Overwork on busywork 20:41 Team burnout red flag 5: Impatience 23:35 Burnout is tied to short-termism and fear 27:30 Bureaucracy and gaslighting 29:10 Idea 1: Combat busyness with an outcome audit 32:49 Idea 2: Clarify ways of working to cut through bureaucracy 34:29 Idea 3: Design defaults and rules that reduce systemic burnout 36:14 Idea 4: Learn your own burnout symptoms to steer the ship before you reach critical mass 42:00 Idea 5: Enforce work-in-product limits for your team 45:55 Wrap up: Leave us a review and share the show with your colleagues Sound engineering and design by Taylor Marvin of ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Coupe Studios⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

Betrayal shakes our sense of safety and self-trust—and that lights up fear. In this conversation, fear researcher and author Dr. Mary Poffenroth breaks fear down into plain language and gives you practical, physiology-first tools to calm the brain in the moment. We cover how fear hijacks the amygdala (your alarm system), how to bring the prefrontal cortex (clear thinking) back online, and how to tell the difference between fictional fears (rumination, future-tripping) and non-fictional fears (real, in-the-moment cues). You'll leave with quick exercises you can do anywhere—no apps, no gear, no supplements.  What we cover  Why high-achievers and “head types” often research their feelings instead of feeling them—and how that becomes a hidden avoidance loop.  How fear shows up after betrayal: fear of change, of the unknown, of failure and success, and the loss of control those trigger.  The RAIN framework to move through fear step by step: Recognize, Assign, Identify, Navigate.   Two fast neurohacks you can use anywhere:  Pinch the Valley: massage the meaty point between thumb and index finger to stimulate the vagus nerve and down-shift arousal.   Near & Far (convergence drill): track a finger/pen from arm's length to your nose and back to engage convergence and cue parasympathetic “rest & digest.”  The nervous-system bus: only one driver at a time (sympathetic fight/flight vs. parasympathetic rest/digest) and how to switch drivers on purpose.  Fictional vs. non-fictional fear (sometimes called “dirty vs. clean” in the literature): how to stop feeding rumination and respond to real-time signals.  The two big “buckets” behind most fictional fears: “I'm not enough” and “I'm losing control.” How labeling one calms the spiral.    Try-it-now tools (step-by-step)  Pinch the Valley (vagus nerve reset)  Make an “L” with one hand (thumb + index).  With the other hand's thumb and index, massage the firm, meaty point where the thumb and index finger bones meet (below the web).  30–60 seconds per hand while breathing slowly. Expect a subtle down-shift in agitation; repeat as needed.   Near & Far (convergence reset)  Hold a finger or pen at arm's length; softly focus on it.  Slowly bring it toward the bridge of your nose until it blurs/doubles, then return to arm's length.  Repeat 5–8 times to help re-engage focus and cue parasympathetic tone.  RAIN (micro-walkthrough)  Recognize: Name the body cues (tight jaw, racing heart).  Assign: “This is fear arousal.” (Not anger, not shame—fear.)  Identify: Is this fictional (story/rumination) or non-fictional (real cue)? If fictional, which bucket: not enough or loss of control?  Navigate: Pick one action (boundary, breath, call a friend, make the ask).  Notable quotes  “We spend so much time pretending fear doesn't exist—and that just drives it underground.” —Dr. Mary  “When the amygdala is lit, the prefrontal cortex goes dim. Get your body safe first; the smart ideas return second.”  “Healthy distractions—work, fitness, staying busy—can still be avoidance.”  “Label it: fictional or non-fictional. Then choose a move.” —Dr. Mary  “What we feed grows. Let's feed courage with small, repeatable actions.”    Who this episode is for  Anyone navigating betrayal who feels stuck between fear and next steps.  Practitioners and leaders who need simple, teachable fear tools.  High-performers who think their feelings and want body-based resets.    Resources & guest links  Dr. Mary Poffenroth — official site (book, speaking, downloads).

He breaks down the compounding power of time, showing how consistent habits, even with modest amounts, lead to lasting financial freedom and flexibility. Drawing on real-life stories, Elijah explains how starting early creates margin, reduces stress, and gives you options that money alone can't buy.

Jaz races in the Hanse 303 and RS Venture Connect SCS classes, and sails an Albin Vega 27, in which she recently became the first wheelchair user to sail solo and unassisted around Great Britain and Ireland, and doing so confronted and overcame great difficulties. She lives with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome,  which means her connective tissue does not function properly, and this also effects her internal organs, and her condition is terminal. Regardless, Jaz is now preparing to compete in the 2026 Worldstar, in which she will attempt to sail solo nonstop unassisted around the world. We talk about her introduction to sailing on a cold wet day in the Cornish Harbor, her obsession with the ocean, growing up with a difficult home situation, being homeless as a child and living on the street, then sleeping in the boats at the sailing club, dealing with fear, living on a shorter time line, finding a new family, comparing the Albin Vega to performance boats, heaving-to, sleeping while solo, hallucinations, breakages, preventers, Project Fear, how the circumnavigation of Britain and Ireland changed her, the extents of her mobility, foul-weather gear, beautiful moments, wildlife, running aground 50 nm from the finish and kedging off, the WorldStar 2026, and more.

In this episode, Diane pays homage to her roots in optometry - a profession that shaped her journey and now serves as a mirror for many clinicians feeling stuck or unfulfilled. She opens up about her own moment of realization in practice - when the daily routine of eye exams began to feel like a box rather than a calling - and shares how she found purpose beyond the consulting room. If you've ever wondered, “Is this all I'll be doing for the rest of my career?” - this episode is for you.

Welcome to the The Achievers Podcast.  I'm your host, Amber Deibert, Performance Coach. I help enterprise sellers unlock their full potential by aligning their work with how they workout and cleaning up mindset trash, so they can sell more, stress less, and take back control of their time and success. We spend our whole lives trying to outthink emotions. We outwork them. Outrun them. Numb them with busyness and “productivity.” But the truth is, it's not your calendar, your system, or your discipline that's holding you back. It's the one thing you refuse to feel. Fear. Embarrassment. Shame. Whatever it is, you've built your whole life around not feeling it. And that's what's keeping you stuck. In this episode, I'll walk you into the part nobody talks about, where every goal you want lives on the other side of a feeling you've been avoiding. I'll teach you how to sit with it, how to let it move, and how to discover that it was never as scary as you thought. Because once you can feel anything, You can create everything.
