What if simply allowing yourself to imagine something different could change the energy of your relationship—and your life—before you ever actually did anything?In this episode, JJ Flizanes is joined once again by Doug Sandler for a candid continuation of their conversation about sexual chemistry, intimacy, desire, manifestation, and what has shifted dramatically in their relationship over the last 30 days.And here's the surprising part: the biggest transformation didn't begin with an action. It began with an idea.A sexual fantasy opened the door to conversations, anticipation, vulnerability, excitement, fear, and an entirely different energy between JJ and Doug. That experience became a real-life example of something JJ has taught for years through the Law of Attraction: if you want to experience a new reality, you have to begin accessing the thoughts, emotions, and energy of that reality before you have physical evidence that it exists.JJ and Doug also explore a question most of us rarely stop to consider:Who actually taught you how to have sex?Most people receive very little education about sexual pleasure, communication, desire, or understanding their own bodies. Yet somehow, we're expected to enter relationships knowing what we want—and knowing how to give our partner what they want.Doug shares openly about the male perspective, including performance anxiety, the pressure to know how to please your partner, and what happens when your partner doesn't necessarily know how to tell you what they want either.JJ also explores the connection between sexual energy, creativity, relationships, manifestation, the nervous system, and physical health—and why sexual expression may be an important part of the bigger conversation about whole-person health.This episode isn't simply about having more sex. It's about becoming curious about the parts of yourself you may never have explored, creating enough safety in a relationship to communicate honestly, and allowing yourself to try on a new possibility.Because sometimes you don't have to know exactly where something is going. Giving yourself permission to imagine, explore, and try something new may be enough to shift your energy—and begin creating a completely different experience.In This Episode:How one fantasy changed the energy of JJ and Doug's relationshipWhy anticipation and imagination can be incredibly powerfulHow to use Law of Attraction to access a reality that doesn't exist yetWhy trying something new can change the way you think, feel, and behaveWhy most adults were never actually taught how to have good sexSexual exploration and discovering what turns you onWhy your partner may not know how to tell you what they needThe pressure men can experience around sexual performanceHow sexual dissatisfaction can affect the rest of a relationshipThe connection between sexual energy, creativity, vitality, and healthCreating safety for honest conversations with your partnerWhy these same principles can apply to sex, money, health, career, and other areas of your lifeResources Mentioned:Download JJ's Feelings & Needs List:https://jjflizanes.com/feelingslistLearn more about The Five Levels to Restore Health:https://jjflizanes.com/restoreReady to work with JJ?

Tough situations bring feelings. Frustration. Failure. Feeling exposed. That's not the problem. The problem is what you do next. Most people look for the nearest thing to numb it. Food. Drugs. A workout. TV. Social media. More work. Niyi breaks down why the thing you pick doesn't matter nearly as much as the fact that you're running. Every time you numb instead of feel, you're reinforcing one belief: I can't handle a feeling. That's not a KILLA. That's a ghost, dodging something that can't even touch you unless you let it. The move is the opposite. Run toward the feeling. Sit in it. Study it. Figure out what it's actually telling you. Then decide on the right action and make your move. You can't lead from Self if you're afraid of what you feel. 3 days left to decide on your #1 goal and join Lock In. Enroll now at imnotyou.com/lockin

Emotions are having a moment—and they're affecting everything from our broader culture to our most intimate relationships. In this episode, Kel from Expansive Connection joins us to explore how fear of uncomfortable feelings, emotional manipulation, codependency, and unregulated emotional expression can influence our decisions and cause harm. These challenges can become even more intense in ethical non-monogamy, where jealousy, insecurity, vulnerability, and uncertainty often bring powerful emotions to the surface. Navigating these adult relationships successfully requires an equally mature ability to understand and manage what we feel. In this episode we'll examine how emotions are created in the brain, why they are essential, and how "affective realism" can cause us to mistake what we feel for what is objectively true. Kel also shares practical ways to strengthen emotional intelligence and emotional fitness—including noticing and naming feelings, pausing before reacting, separating feelings from facts, and communicating more effectively. Uncomfortable emotions are inevitable, but avoiding them means missing valuable opportunities for growth, deeper self-awareness, and stronger relationships.

A lot of people reached out after yesterday's episode, and the response made one thing clear: many of us are quietly fighting through a tough season right now. Someone in my DMs asked how I actually turned my day around, and I realized I had a real answer worth sharing. In this episode, I walk through the three things I personally did to stop a bad day from becoming a bad month, or worse, a bad year. It starts with something that sounds simple but hits differently when you actually apply it. Listen if you're in it, or send it to someone who is. Key Takeaways Support exists even when it feels invisible. If no one else is checking on you, be the person who refuses to give up on yourself. Feelings are not facts. A bad day does not have to be a zero day, and momentum starts with whatever small win you can actually get. You do not need a big trophy. Making your bed, taking a shower, or going for a walk counts as traction when you are in a low moment. Stagnation is the real danger. Letting one bad day bleed into tomorrow is a pattern that breaks only when you force a win into the cycle. The fastest way to shift your perspective is to help someone else. When you pour into others, you stop drowning in your own circumstances. Action Steps Stand in front of a mirror today and verbally acknowledge one way you have already shown up for yourself, especially if no one else has. Identify one small, completable task and finish it before the day ends. Name it as your victory and let it be enough. Reach out to one person who might need support or find a local place to volunteer. Shift your focus outward and watch your perspective follow. Notable Quote You have to find some sort of win. Because if you can start to get any sort of momentum, it breaks the cycle of everything is wrong.

Brian opens frustrated by what he sees as performative culture at every level — from politicians renaming Lake Ontario "Lake America" to grandstanding pastors — contrasting it with Jesus's call for authentic inner transformation over outward appearance. He shares a study linking over 150 minutes of daily social media use to rising rates of self-reported depression, and digs into a Christianity Today piece arguing that worship isn't meant to be primarily about how it makes us feel, but about giving God the glory He's due regardless of our emotions. Brian plays a clip from pastor Eric Reed making the case that saving faith isn't mere mental belief in Jesus but genuine submission to Him as Lord and King. He also shares a Relevant Magazine piece on shifting from a transactional relationship with God to a relational one, a wild follow-up story about a former Chick-fil-A employee's $80,000 mac-and-cheese fraud scheme, and closes with sobering research on the poor mental health of worship leaders and a broader reflection on the need for greater character and integrity among church leaders.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Last updated: August 27, 2026 Trusted by leaders at Stanford University, Ernst & Young, Autodesk, MGM Grand Resorts, and Farmers Insurance Executive Summary: Most women leaders avoid difficult conversations to protect relationships — and that avoidance is what actually destroys trust. StoneAge CEO Kerry Siggins built the six-step SHARES framework after a piece of brutal feedback changed her leadership. Here's exactly how it works. Quick Takeaways: Difficult conversations delayed almost always get harder, not easier, over time The SHARES framework has six steps you can prepare in under ten minutes Organizations with regular feedback see 14.9% lower turnover rates Wanting to "be right" is the single biggest killer of workplace trust Feedback without a credible next step leaves people hopeless, not motivated Jump to: Why It Happens · The SHARES Framework · Examples · Action Plan · FAQ As an executive leadership coach with over 30 years of experience (MA, MFT, PCC) working with Fortune 50–1000 companies, I hear the same confession from brilliant, accomplished women leaders almost every week: "I know I need to have this conversation. I just keep putting it off." If you've been carrying a difficult conversation you haven't had yet — with a direct report, a peer, a boss, even a spouse — you are in very good company, and it is costing you more than you think. On this episode of the Women's Leadership Success Podcast, I sat down with Kerry Siggins, CEO of StoneAge (an employee-owned manufacturer of high-pressure water jetting equipment) and author of the new book Talk With Trust: How to Own Feedback, Spark Growth, and Build Stronger Teams. Kerry built her career on hard conversations — including one that nearly ended her leadership before it began. What she learned from it became the SHARES framework, a six-step system for women leaders navigating difficult conversations without torching the relationship in the process. Take the 2-minute survey at WomensLeadershipSuccess.com/survey Why Women Leaders Avoid Difficult Conversations — And What It Actually Costs Nobody avoids a hard conversation because they're lazy. Women leaders avoid difficult conversations because they're afraid of the consequence: a damaged relationship, an angry reaction, a reputation for being "too much." As Kerry put it on the show, "We're all not having a conversation that we know we need to have because we're afraid of the consequences." The problem is that the consequence of silence is almost always worse than the consequence of speaking. The research backs this up. Recent workplace data shows organizations with regular employee feedback see 14.9% lower turnover, while highly engaged teams — the kind built through honest dialogue — report 21% greater profitability (Careertrainer.ai, 2026). On the trust side, the numbers are sobering: employer trust fell to 76% in the 2025 Edelman Trust Barometer, and a 21-point gap now separates how much executives trust their organizations (91%) versus how much individual contributors do (70%). Every unspoken conversation widens that gap. Kerry's own turning point came from a conversation she didn't get to control. Her COO — her right-hand operational partner — had been quietly building resentment for a year. It came out in a blowup: "You think you're this inspiring CEO who disrupts the industry, but really what you are is erratic, and you're really hard to work for." Kerry's instinct was to fire him on the spot. Instead, she went home and sat with it. That single piece of painful, poorly-delivered feedback became the foundation for Talk With Trust — and for the SHARES framework she now teaches leaders everywhere. Your team is asking themselves this question constantly, whether they say it out loud or not: can I trust you? I broke this down recently on LinkedIn into three pillars — and it's the exact groundwork that makes a framework like SHARES actually work, instead of just sounding good on paper. Trust isn't built in one big moment. It's built in the small moments people learn they can count on you. — Sabrina Braham, MA, MFT, PCC Notice how closely this maps to what goes wrong in most difficult conversations. Performance trust breaks when someone overpromises or makes excuses instead of owning a miss. Authenticity trust breaks when someone says what people want to hear instead of what's true, or hides a mistake to protect their image — the exact trap Kerry's "articulate your experience" step is built to avoid. And reliability trust breaks when standards shift with someone's mood, or follow-through only happens when it's convenient — which is precisely why the SHARES framework's final step, endorsing a path forward, matters so much: a plan you don't follow through on costs you more trust than no plan at all. This is the same shift Kerry made the day she got called "erratic" — she stopped waiting to feel ready to lead differently and just did it. The SHARES Framework: Six Steps for Difficult Conversations That Build Trust SHARES is a simple, repeatable system women leaders can use to prepare for any hard conversation — a performance issue, a peer conflict, a hard truth with a boss, even a conversation with a spouse. Each letter is a step you move through, in order. S — Specify Your Ideal Outcome Before you say a word, get clear on what you actually want from this conversation. Not "to be right" — an actual outcome. "I want to keep this relationship strong. I want to see behavior change. I want this to build trust, not break it." Kerry's insight: most difficult conversations go sideways because neither person has named the outcome they're going for. Stating it out loud — even to yourself — changes everything that follows. H — Have Your Facts and Feelings Ready Facts alone feel cold and clinical. Feelings alone feel like an ambush. You need both: the observable behavior ("you were late to this meeting") and the impact it had ("we waited, and had to repeat ourselves for you, which was frustrating for the team"). Preparing both in advance also does something else important — it gives you time to calm down before you walk into the room. A — Articulate Your Experience This is the step Kerry calls her favorite, because it's the one most leaders get subtly wrong. "I feel like you don't respect me" still sounds like a judgment wearing an I-statement disguise. Articulating your experience instead sounds like: "I'd like to share my experience of this situation. The story I'm telling myself is that you don't respect me — and I want to check whether that's accurate. What was your experience?" Owning your perspective as a perspective, not a verdict, opens the door instead of slamming it. R — Reflect With Questions and Dialogue The goal of any difficult conversation isn't to be right — it's to be accurate. And the only way to get accurate is to ask questions and actually stay in dialogue. Kerry shared a story of giving tough feedback to an employee who wasn't a direct report. Rather than delivering a verdict, she asked what was going on. What she learned changed the entire conversation — from correction to genuine understanding, without letting go of accountability. E — Endorse a Path Forward Feedback without a credible next step doesn't motivate people — it leaves them hopeless. Kerry described a boss early in her career who told her she wasn't getting in front of decision-makers and to "come back with a plan." She didn't know how to fix it and didn't feel safe saying so. She eventually quit. Now she builds the path forward together with the other person: What are you trying? What's working? What isn't? That collaborative plan is what turns feedback into change — and what creates real accountability without punishment. S — Stay Emotionally Grounded People tend to mirror the emotional energy in the room. If you walk in braced and defensive, you'll get braced and defensive back. Kerry's practice: feel your feet on the floor, take a breath, and become "the mirror that calms people down" rather than the one that escalates them. Staying grounded doesn't mean suppressing emotion in the other person — it means giving them room to have their reaction without matching it. SHARES in Practice: Three Real Application Examples The promotion conversation. A director wants to raise her hand for a VP role but suspects her boss has reservations. Using SHARES, she opens with her outcome ("I want clarity on what would make me ready for this role"), shares the facts of her track record alongside how the uncertainty has felt, then asks reflective questions instead of defending her resume — walking out with an actual development plan instead of vague reassurance. The peer conflict. Two directors keep clashing in cross-functional meetings. Instead of escalating to their shared VP, one initiates a SHARES conversation: names the outcome (a working relationship that doesn't derail meetings), articulates her experience without accusation, and asks what's driving the friction from the other side. They leave with a path forward neither would have found by avoiding the topic. The marriage parallel. As I shared with Kerry on the show, this isn't only a workplace tool. Simply naming the outcome you want at the start of a hard conversation with a spouse — "I want us to leave this in a better place" — changes the entire trajectory before either person says another word. You don't have to figure this out alone.

Alyssa shares why middle childhood is often overlooked, even though elementary-age kids are still developing major emotional regulation skills. Together, Wendy and Alyssa talk about why parents don't need to fix every hard feeling, how co-regulation still matters as kids grow, and why strong boundaries help children feel safe when they're offered with calm, clarity, and respect. ➡️ Head to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.freshstartfamilyonline.com/336 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ for more info and links.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

My friend Heather Brown joins me to talk about simple, practical ways we can care for our minds, bodies, and spirits without adding another overwhelming item to our to-do lists. We talk about creating intentional rhythms, managing chronic stress, protecting what matters most, and letting God help us see where our lives need a reset. Heather also shares some incredibly doable ways to slow down and care for ourselves in the middle of real, busy life. If you're tired of running on empty, this conversation is for you.

Start with God. Ask: Lord, what do You want this season, week, or day to look like? Identify what matters most. Consider your relationship with God, your closest relationships, your physical and mental health, and the specific calling God has placed on your life. Look honestly at your calendar. Do the things taking up your time match the things you say are important? Find the gaps and distractions. Ask where you're wasting time, what may need to be removed, and which habits aren't serving you well in this season. Put your priorities on the calendar. Schedule the important things instead of assuming they'll happen once everything else is done. Reset instead of expecting perfect balance. Some weeks will get crazy. The goal isn't perfection; it's recognizing when you've gotten off track and intentionally resetting. A Simple Stress Reset: Box Breathing Heather also shares a practical breathing exercise you can use in just a few moments: Inhale for 4 → Hold for 4 → Exhale for 4 → Hold for 4 Repeat for a few cycles to intentionally slow your breathing and create a moment of calm.

Are you actually feeling your feelings—or are you really good at thinking about them? In this episode, we're joined by somatic coach, educator, and Healing Embodied founder Chelsea Horton to explore why insight alone doesn't always create change. We unpack what Chelsea calls “thought-feeling fusion” and “emotional constipation,” why so many of us automatically analyze, judge, or suppress emotions, and what can happen when we learn to let the body do what it naturally knows how to do.We also get into anxiety, nervous system regulation, body awareness, sensuality, and Chelsea's love of pole dancing as a path toward embodiment and self-expression. Whether you're a big thinker who lives like a “floating head in a jar,” someone who feels everything intensely, or someone who struggles to feel much at all, this conversation offers a different way to relate to your emotions—and your body.Episode Highlights[0:03] - Are you feeling your feelings—or just analyzing them?[2:39] - Why emotions happen in the body and the “floating head in a jar” problem[5:15] - Understanding thought-feeling fusion and why we become “emotionally constipated”[8:43] - Why feeling can be scary and how to build your capacity for body awareness[13:32] - Why we can't selectively numb emotions—and what it really means to feel alive[16:16] - Chelsea shares how pole dancing helped her reclaim sensuality, sexuality, and embodiment[21:32] - Using movement and somatic work to move through shame and insecurity[24:11] - How staying with bodily sensations can transform our relationship with anxiety[27:44] - Learning to feel as a skill—and why you can eventually practice it on your own[31:42] - Making friends with anxiety and recognizing the gifts inside an anxious mind[34:37] - Practical body-awareness exercises for highly sensitive people and those who feel numb[38:42] - Where to begin with somatic work: building a relationship with your body instead of trying to “fix” itLinks & Resourceswww.healingembodied.com/connectwww.facebook.com/groups/embodiedleaderparadigmIf today's discussion resonated with you or sparked curiosity, please rate, follow, and share Insights from the Couch with others.

Go looking for help with how you're feeling and it's all the same promise: get rid of the anxiety. Stop the overthinking. Build the confidence. Find the motivation. Sit with what that's actually teaching us - that the feeling is the problem. That something's gone wrong. That you have to fix yourself before you're allowed to get on with your life. I don't think that's true. And I think believing it is costing us a lot. Because the nerves before the presentation? The overwhelm when your boss is away and you're carrying double? The complete absence of desire to get out of a warm bed and go to the gym? None of that is a sign you're broken. It's a brain doing exactly what it was built to do. What actually creates the problem is the second layer — the judging, the resisting, the story you build on top. I should be past this. Everyone else copes better. I'm just not disciplined enough. That's where the spiral lives. Not in the feeling. In this episode I'm sharing the four words I've been saying to myself for years without ever realising it, and the question I ask straight after — the one that gets you moving without waiting to feel ready. It won't make the nerves disappear. It's not meant to. Come for the reframe. Stay for the bit about my massage chair. Stuck circling something you want to build — or just stuck full stop?

What happens when you combine a new season, a new academic year, and a recording location that has been on your bucket list for years? Season 13 of the Fueling Creativity in Education Podcast begins with a special introduction recorded from Mount Etna in Sicily, a place that has fascinated Dr. Matthew Worwood since childhood. The episode offers a behind-the-scenes look at the challenges of recording from the side of an active volcano, including poor signal, a rapidly draining battery, and the uncertainty of whether the episode would actually make it onto the podcast. But those challenges become part of the conversation. A simple question about whether there should be snow on Mount Etna leads to an unexpected discovery about snow trapped beneath volcanic ash. The experience becomes a reminder of how curiosity can turn an ordinary observation into a series of new questions and discoveries. The conversation also connects the experience on Mount Etna to several of the ideas explored in The Future Creative, including Ask Questions, Model Creative Behavior, Face the Feelings, and Enjoy the Ride. Rather than simply talking about these ideas, the episode offers a real-life example of what they can look like when something doesn't go according to plan. It is a fitting way to begin a new season and a new academic year.   Be sure to subscribe to your favorite platform and sign up for our Extra Fuel newsletter for more resources and inspiration.

What if the emotions you're trying so hard not to feel aren't actually a problem to solve? This week, Heather is joined by life coach and seminary teacher Alicia Davis to explore the Psalms and what David's words can teach us about experiencing the full range of human emotion. The Psalms give us something we don't always see so openly in scripture: people expressing fear, grief, worry, hope, joy, and everything in between. Through a coaching lens, Heather and Alicia discuss what happens when we stop judging our emotions and instead get curious about what they're trying to teach us. They also look at Psalm 49 and offer a new perspective on comparison. Rather than allowing comparison to lead to shame or jealousy, what if we used it to discover something about ourselves? In this episode, you'll learn: Why feeling difficult emotions can help us move forward instead of keeping us stuck How naming and understanding emotions can build emotional resilience What the Psalms can teach us about recognizing how the Spirit speaks to us How curiosity can interrupt a comparison spiral Why comparison might reveal something you want, need, or feel called to pursue The Psalms remind us that experiencing emotion is part of being human and part of becoming who God created us to be. Listen in and discover how allowing, naming, and learning from your emotions can deepen both your emotional and spiritual growth. Download her Spirit Wheel HERE.

Most people only check one thing on their dashboard: feelings. That's like covering every other gauge in your car with a Post it note and driving by only watching the check oil light. Sure, you'd know when to change your oil, but you'd rack up speeding tickets, run out of gas, and probably rear end somebody at the grocery store. In this episode, I'm sharing the other data points you need to review besides your emotions, including truth, time, commitments, numbers, and your original dream. I'll walk you through how I used this exact framework to finally deal with my insurance policy, a task I'd been avoiding for way too long. You don't need to check every gauge every time. You just need to know which ones matter for the situation you're in. Drive with your whole dashboard, and you'll actually end up where you want to go.In This Episode:Order Procrastination Proof!You can grab a copy of my new book Procrastination Proof from your favorite bookstore or at my website!Make sure to follow me on Instagram and share with your friends!Sign up for my newsletter, Try This!Book me to speak at your event or to your team!Sign up for the Remarkable You Community today!Keep up with my book list on GoodReads!Have me speak at your next event!

In this debrief episode of Narcissist Apocalypse, Brandon Chadwick debriefs Plum's survivor story and examines how the patterns she experienced with her mother shaped her vulnerability to coercive control in her marriage. Brandon explores how unpredictable rules and moving goalposts taught Plum to overfunction, question herself, and believe she could never do enough. He also discusses her mother's need to maintain a victim identity, how parental approval caused Plum to override her concerns about her future husband, and why the relief she felt in his absence was important information from her body. The episode also examines how viewing abuse as a series of separate incidents can keep victims focused on solving the latest conflict. Once Plum recognized that the silent treatments, gaslighting, sexual coercion, accusations, financial abuse, and violence were all part of a larger pattern of control, she gained the clarity needed to leave. That same pattern recognition eventually helped Plum understand her relationship with her mother and end contact with her.

If you've ever worried that loving your kid too much, supporting them too much, or NOT giving them enough "tough love" is going to leave them completely unprepared for the real world, you need to hear this episode.Because Billy Eichner's story might be the best evidence I've ever seen that the opposite of "tough love" is what actually makes a kid strong.Billy's parents loved the absolute hell out of him. They celebrated exactly who he was, and when he grew up and faced more than a decade of rejection, that endless love from his parents didn't make him soft, it gave him the audacity to keep believing in himself. He went from not being able to get an agent to creating Billy on the Street, earning four Emmy nominations, and making history with the film Bros.And THAT is where this conversation completely changed something for me. What if the way we prepare our kids for a hard world isn't by toughening them up, but by loving them so deeply that the world can't convince them to abandon themselves?We talk about rejection, resilience, success, why even wildly successful people still fixate on the people who don't like them, and what Billy believes his parents gave him that made everything else possible. And then Billy says something every parent needs to hear: there is enough tough love waiting for our kids in the world. We don't have to be the ones who give it to them.Whether you already love Billy Eichner or have no idea who he is, you will walk away from this episode knowing exactly how to raise an emotionally healthy, resilient, “strong” kid, and what they need most from us.This episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products and services.

The Rise of Islam & the Crisis of Biblical Christianity | KWR0062 Kingdom War Room DESCRIPTION What happens when a civilization loses its biblical foundations while competing religious and ideological systems grow stronger? In this powerful Kingdom War Room discussion, Dr. Michael Lake, Dr. Mike Spaulding, and Pastor Corby Shuey examine the growing influence of Islam in the Western world, the ideological conflicts facing America, and the spiritual condition that has left much of the modern Church unprepared to respond. This conversation is not a call for hatred, hostility, or mistreatment of Muslims. The speakers explicitly distinguish between people and the doctrines and ideological claims they are examining. The deeper question is: DO CHRISTIANS ACTUALLY KNOW WHAT THEY BELIEVE? The Church is entering an age in which shallow Christianity will not be sufficient. As competing worldviews grow increasingly bold, believers must understand the Scriptures, know why they believe what they believe, develop biblical discernment, and become deeply rooted in Jesus Christ. This episode examines: ·      The rise of Islamic influence in Western culture and politics ·      Islam, Sharia, jihad, and competing religious worldviews ·      Why Christians must understand the theological differences between the biblical Jesus and the Islamic understanding of Jesus ·      The relationship between postmodernism, cultural deconstruction, socialism, and Islamism discussed by the panel ·      How emotionalism has weakened biblical Christianity ·      Why believers must learn to distinguish feelings from biblical truth ·      The danger of churches abandoning serious biblical study ·      Why spiritual discernment will become increasingly important ·      The need for pastors and Christian leaders to preach biblical truth without fear ·      Why the next generation desperately needs a biblical worldview ·      The difference between emotional conversion and genuine faith in Jesus Christ ·      Why worship must be centered on God rather than human experience ·      The necessity of spiritual discipline and deep biblical conviction Why the Remnant must develop deep spiritual roots for the days ahead One of the central warnings of this Kingdom War Room is simple: A shallow faith cannot withstand a serious spiritual battle. Dr. Lake observes that Christians have moved from being a studious people to becoming an entertainment-oriented people. Dr. Spaulding warns that believers who do not know Scripture or understand why they believe what they believe will find themselves increasingly unprepared for opposition. The answer is not fear. The answer is not hatred. The answer is not political violence. The answer is a Church that returns to the Word of God, walks in the fear of the Lord, develops spiritual discernment, and becomes firmly rooted in Jesus Christ. Pastor Corby makes this especially clear in the closing prayer: the response being advocated is not rudeness, violence, or aggression toward others, but humble submission to Scripture and faithful allegiance to Jesus Christ. The time for "three-millimeter-deep Christianity" is over.  We need roots that run deep.  We need believers who know the Word.  We need men and women who understand their faith.  And above everything else, we need a generation that knows Jesus Christ as Lord, King, Messiah, Redeemer, and Savior.

KEY SCRIPTURES FEATURED Hosea 11:4–7 — God calls His people back to Himself rather than trusting competing powers and false systems. Job 38:3 — "Dress for action like a man"; the discussion uses Job to emphasize accountability before Almighty God. Matthew 24 — The episode connects contemporary deception with Jesus' warnings concerning the last days. Psalm 1 — The closing exhortation uses the image of the deeply rooted tree as a model for believers who must withstand spiritual drought. The episode also repeatedly emphasizes the biblical confession of Jesus Christ as Lord, Messiah, Savior, Redeemer, and God incarnate. The discussion specifically contrasts that confession with Islamic Christology.

What happens when the life you thought was secure suddenly falls apart? My friend Danna Demetre knows what it’s like to face deep betrayal and to discover God’s faithfulness right in the middle of it. We talk honestly about heartbreak, forgiveness, rebuilding trust, and what it means to anchor our identity in Christ when everything feels shaken. Danna also shares how her own painful experience inspired her debut novel, Beyond Betrayal, which she wrote in her 70s! This conversation is a beautiful reminder that God doesn’t waste our pain, forgiveness and trust aren’t the same thing, and you are never too old or too young to pursue the purpose God still has for you. Remember, I'd love to connect more on Instagram, where you'll find me at @donnaajones. And don’t forget to subscribe so you don’t miss a single episode!

Trust: Trust is not automatically restored because forgiveness has been given. Trust must be rebuilt through consistent actions over time. Reconciliation: A restored relationship requires two people. I can do what God asks of me, but I cannot control another person’s choices. Danna’s reminder is so important: forgiveness doesn’t mean pretending something didn’t hurt. It doesn’t mean forgetting, immediately trusting again, or skipping the grieving process. It means releasing the offense to God while allowing Him to guide what comes next.

In this episode of Facts vs Feelings, Ryan Detrick, Chief Market Strategist at Carson Group, joins Sonu Varghese, Chief Macro Strategist at Carson Group, live from Penn State as Ryan navigates college move-in day and a few very real headlines along the way. From there, they dive into the increasingly complex financing behind the AI boom, including NVIDIA's role in funding AI infrastructure, the rise of "neo-clouds," private credit, and the shift of AI financing risk from corporate balance sheets toward the broader financial system.Ryan and Sonu then examine what the market is saying about risk. Semiconductor stocks have staged a powerful rebound, financials are on an unprecedented winning streak, European banks continue to outperform, and private equity and private credit names are breaking higher. They ask whether these market signals are consistent with the growing recession concerns that dominate financial headlines.The conversation turns to the consumer, where weak retail sales headlines tell only part of the story. Sonu explains why Prime Day timing, lower gasoline prices, and volatile monthly data can distort the picture, while restaurant spending, household balance sheets, debt levels, and delinquencies suggest the consumer remains more resilient than sentiment surveys imply. They also explore why consumers can feel worse while continuing to spend on restaurants, travel, concerts, and other experiences.Finally, Ryan and Sonu tackle inflation from the household's perspective, highlighting stubborn services inflation in areas like lawn care, health care, vehicle repairs, restaurants, and veterinary services. They discuss falling expectations for a September Fed hike, rising long-term Treasury yields, massive federal deficits, the growing cost of government interest payments, a steepening yield curve, and heavy Nasdaq hedging. The episode closes with a broader look at what these signals mean for the bull market and the economy.[Key Takeaways]AI financing is becoming increasingly financialized. NVIDIA's involvement in AI infrastructure financing, alongside major private-capital firms and banks, is helping shift the funding of AI buildout toward private credit, special-purpose vehicles, and debt-backed structures.The AI financing risk may be moving rather than disappearing. NVIDIA's proposed backstop structure can reduce tail risk on its own balance sheet, but some of that risk is transferred to investors, lenders, institutions, and private-credit vehicles financing AI infrastructure.The consumer is showing more resilience than the headlines suggest. Retail sales weakened in July, but Prime Day's earlier timing, lower gas prices, and monthly volatility complicate the headline number. Restaurant spending remains strong, while household debt and debt-service burdens remain relatively manageable.Household leverage does not look excessive by historical standards. Total household debt declined in Q2 2026, credit-card debt was down during the first half of the year, and household debt-service costs remain below 2019 levels. Delinquency data also require context because charged-off debt can remain in reported measures for longer than it historically did.Inflation remains a problem at the household level. While some headline inflation readings have been encouraging, services such as lawn care, home health care, vehicle repair, restaurants, dental care, and veterinary services continue to run above pre-pandemic inflation rates.Jump to:0:00 - College Move-In And Headlines4:20 - The Circular AI Money Loop8:30 - Neo-Clouds And Compute Financing Explained16:40 - Chip Rally And Financials Breakout19:45 - Why European Banks Still Lead22:20 - Retail Sales And Consumer Fears33:20 - Savings Rate Debt And Balance Sheets43:30 - Delinquencies The Data And The Asterisk49:40 - Inflation From A Consumer View56:55 - Fed Hike Odds Shift And Yields Rise1:01:20 - Deficits Long Bonds And Portfolio Positioning1:08:15 - Nasdaq Hedging And Final Takeaways1:11:57 - Wrap And Listener RequestsConnect with Ryan:• LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ryandetrick/• X: https://x.com/RyanDetrickConnect with Sonu:• LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sonu-varghese-phd/• X: https://x.com/sonusvarghese?lang=enQuestions about the show?

When things don't look the way you expected them to, disappointment, doubt, and discouragement move in fast. And if you carry a father wound, that pain has a way of attaching itself to God, because He is your Father. In this episode, we cover five verses you can keep going back to when the prayer stays unanswered, the door stays closed, and the vision God gave you looks nowhere close to coming to pass. This is not about pretending everything is fine. It is about having scripture ready to answer your feelings and the lies of the enemy, so you stop drifting into self-reliance and start trusting the character of God again. Timestamps 00:00 Why disappointment in business so often becomes a rift with God 01:30 The father wound connection, and why unanswered prayer triggers it 02:19 Self-reliance vs God-reliance, and why it is such a slippery slope 03:15 Verse 1: Proverbs 3:5-6 05:30 Verse 2: Isaiah 41:10 06:30 Verse 3: Hebrews 13:5 08:00 How the enemy shows up at the most vulnerable moment 10:30 Quick recap of the first three verses 11:15 Verse 4: Romans 15:4 12:30 Paul wrote from prison. What if the prison was the assignment? 13:57 Joseph's vision, and the twenty years between the dream and the fulfillment 15:30 Verse 5: 2 Timothy 3:16-17 17:00 Why "I believe in Jesus but not every word of the Bible" leaves you without a GPS 20:15 Bonus verse: Philippians 4:6-7 and how to access the peace that surpasses understanding 21:01 Take-home applications for all five verses 23:11 Mia's commitment for every episode of this podcast Key Scriptures (NKJV) Proverbs 3:5-6 — "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths." Isaiah 41:10 — "Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand." Hebrews 13:5 — "Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have. For He Himself has said, 'I will never leave you nor forsake you.'" Romans 15:4 — "For whatever things were written before were written for our learning, that we through the patience and comfort of the Scriptures might have hope." 2 Timothy 3:16-17 — "All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work." Bonus, Philippians 4:6-7 — "Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus." Key Points Disappointment is not the real danger. What we do with it is. Unmet expectations quietly push us back into self-reliance, and self-reliance is us deciding we are in control of something we were never in control of. Feelings are real, but they are not authority. When your experience says "God has abandoned me" and scripture says "I will never leave you nor forsake you," one of those is the truth and one of those is a feeling. The enemy waits for the vulnerable moment. He does not usually show up when everything is going well. He shows up in the trial, and he twists the very promise God gave you. Closed doors are not proof of abandonment. When you know God's character, a closed door reads as redirection instead of rejection. Paul wrote much of the New Testament from a prison cell. Joseph waited about twenty years between the vision and the fulfillment. Neither of those journeys looked like the promise while they were living it. Take-Home Applications Proverbs 3:5-6. The next time you face a hard decision or an uncertain season in your business, stop before you strategize. Pray first and ask, "God, what are You showing me here?" Then ask what scripture says about it, instead of what your understanding says about it. Isaiah 41:10. When you feel overwhelmed or discouraged, stop trying to manufacture strength. You do not have to muster up what is required for what is in front of you. Go to Him and ask Him to strengthen you, then move forward leaning on His strength. Hebrews 13:5. When feelings of abandonment show up, do two things. Go to the verse first and say it out loud. Then make a list of the times God has already come through for you, even when it did not look the way you expected. Keep that list somewhere you can find it fast. Romans 15:4. Set aside dedicated study time in the stories of the leaders and builders in scripture. Start with Joseph's rise out of adversity and Nehemiah's leadership rebuilding the wall. Look specifically at the setbacks and what God did through them, not just the outcome. 2 Timothy 3:16-17. Treat scripture as the actual foundation of your business strategy, not the inspirational layer on top of it. Before your next big business decision, ask what biblical principle should be informing this choice, and ground the decision there instead of in your feelings. Philippians 4:6-7. When anxiety rises, take the request to Him with thanksgiving first. Speak the verses from this episode back to God as truth about who He is, then make your ask. That is how you access the peace that guards your heart and mind

In this episode, Julie Reisler explores the importance of feeling your emotions fully rather than overanalyzing them. She shares personal insights and practical tips on how to release judgment, cultivate safety in your body, and connect with your highest self.   Takeaways Feeling your emotions fully is essential for healing, not just analyzing them. Giving yourself space and grace to feel is more effective than overanalyzing. Practicing safety in your body helps release stored emotions and weight. Letting energy move through shaking, yelling, or crying facilitates healing. Judgment keeps us stuck; kindness and love are transformative. Connecting with your highest guidance supports emotional growth. Emotions are always in motion; they can't truly get stuck.   About Your Host, Julie Reisler Julie Reisler is a heart-led intuitive guide, TEDx speaker, author, and host of The You-est You® Podcast.

In 1997, Miss USA won Miss Universe with one perfectly judged answer. She revealed just enough to charm, but not enough to shock. Harvard professor Leslie John says that's scientifically proven to persuade. Her research shows revealers are more likeable, more hireable, and even more dateable.

Is distraction the same thing as running from your feelings? This week we answer a listener question about where that line actually is, and why the answer isn't as simple as always sit with it.We talk about why attention plays such a big role in anxiety disorders, why getting caught up in your life is not automatically avoidance, and why the real question isn't am I distracting myself but what am I actually running from. We also get into why every emotion, not just anxiety, deserves room, and why treating fear as the only feeling that matters can quietly shut down curiosity about everything else you feel.Plus Did It Anyway wins, including a tattoo appointment survived and a listener who fell asleep during a 90 minute MRI.--Want to talk about this episode or interact with us and others that share your experience?

Should Christians trust their feelings when making decisions or entering into worship? In this episode we examine why Scripture, not feelings, must be the primary guide for every Christian. Pastor Richard Caldwell and Josh Philpot discuss the proper biblical view of human emotions, the danger of emotion driven faith, and how to know God's will without relying on mystical signs. Learn how to find real joy in seasons of spiritual depression by anchoring your affections to the inerrant Word of God, so that your desires follow biblical truth rather than shifting feelings.
