Grown skeptical of “religion” but still hungry for truth? In this episode, I share how I went from questioning everything I believed — to discovering that reason and faith aren't enemies after all. This isn't about blind belief; it's about following evidence, wrestling with doubts, and finding something solid enough to build a life on. You'll hear: • Why I decided to “fact-check” my faith during college • What logic, history, and honest searching actually revealed • The surprising peace that came when I stopped running from the questions If you've ever felt torn between faith and intellect, this one's for you. #FaithAndReason #ChristianApologetics #Testimony #CollegeFaith #SeekingTruth Have you wrestled with your faith?

Dr. Richard Boyatzis, joins Dr. Bradley Block to unpack why even accomplished physicians often lose their sense of meaning mid-career. Drawing from his Intentional Change Theory, Dr. Boyatzis explains that fulfillment dips every 7–10 years as part of our natural life cycle — what he calls liminality, the space between “what was” and “what's next.” The fix isn't distraction (real estate, side gigs, or skydiving), but rediscovering your vision — your “ideal self” — and aligning daily work with your true values.He warns against the trap of coaching for compliance — trying to fix patients (or yourself) through fear and goals. Instead, focus on coaching with compassion — inspiring sustained change through purpose, gratitude, and hope. Physicians, he says, thrive when they reconnect to why they entered medicine: to help, heal, and matter. Through personal stories, neuroscience, and humor, Dr. Boyatzis offers a practical roadmap for reigniting passion without abandoning your profession — whether that means teaching, mentoring, volunteering, or simply reframing success through renewed purpose.Three Actionable Takeaways:Revisit Your Vision Every 7–10 Years: Midlife restlessness isn't failure — it's biology. Reflect on your ideal self by asking, “If my life were fantastic 10–15 years from now, what would it look like?” Write it down, talk it out, and use it to guide new choices in work and life.Coach (and Care) with Compassion, Not Compliance: Patients — and physicians — change through hope, not fear. Replace “If you don't…” warnings with vision-driven goals (“What do you want to live for?”). Shared purpose boosts motivation, treatment adherence, and well-being.Recharge with Purposeful Connection: Gratitude and positive storytelling aren't fluff — they activate the parasympathetic system and restore energy. Start meetings or days with one uplifting story, or jot three things you're grateful for. It rewires stress into meaning. About the Show:Succeed In Medicine covers patient interactions, burnout, career growth, personal finance, and more. If you're tired of dull medical lectures, tune in for real-world lessons we should have learned in med school!Dr. Richard Boyatzis is a Distinguished University Professor at Case Western Reserve University and one of the world's most cited scholars on emotional intelligence, leadership, and behavior change. Co-author of Primal Leadership and Helping People Change, his latest book, The Science of Change, distills decades of research into how individuals and organizations achieve sustained transformation.

Deep personal healing requires facing the self with as much courage as one faces the world. Former US Senator and trailblazing military leader Martha McSally, the first American female fighter pilot and the first to command a US Fighter Squadron, shares her raw, intimate story of navigating profound loss, emotional volatility, and a painful cycle of abuse that began after the death of her father and childhood dog. She discusses the critical shift from seeking external saviors to taking radical responsibility for her own recovery, a journey that involved disconnecting from a victim frequency and pursuing a spiritual path to "unpack her trauma." Martha details the simple, yet vital, daily habits—including breathwork, gratitude, and "morning rubs" with her rescue dog—that she uses to regulate her nervous system, raise her energetic frequency, and live a life grounded in resilience and peace.

We dig into his view that fulfillment comes from mindset, not money, and examine how behavioral biases can sabotage our financial decisions.

Dr. Laura welcomes Laura Munson, the #1 New York Times, USA Today, and international best-selling author of novel “Willa's Grove”, memoir “This Is Not the Story You Think It Is”, and recent self-help book “The Wild Why”, to the show. Laura Munson tells Dr. Laura about the impetus behind the writing of her new book, “The Wild Why”, and her passion for bringing wonder back into the world. As Laura explains, wonder can release our creativity and free us from the hustle culture that leads to burnout. When Laura Munson talks about writing from a place of service, she's referring to her epiphany that she wanted to write “to shine a light on a dim or otherwise pitch black corner, to provide relief for myself and others”. That has shaped much of her career since. She and Dr. Laura discuss how imposter syndrome and a fear of failure can be reframed, the inner critters or saboteurs we all have within us, the dangerous reality of burnout, and how to value the questions in life that lead to wonder. This interview opens us up to a new way of looking at our fears and engaging with the world around us for positive benefit. “I'm not saying put down your sword of ambition or your dream to impact the world and yourself in it. I'm just saying that when we grasp the small moments that are full of wonder all around us, that's when I feel that we can truly be connecting with ourselves so that we can authentically connect with the world around us, whether it's career or interpersonal relationships.” - Laura MunsonAbout Laura Munson:Laura Munson is the New York Times, USA Today, and international best-selling author of the novel Willa's Grove, the memoir This Is Not The Story You Think It Is, and the self-help book The Wild Why. She has been published in nine countries and has been featured in Vanity Fair, Elle, Redbook, Time, Newsweek, Washington Post, Publishers' Weekly, and published in the New York Times ‘Modern Love' Column, the New York Times Magazine ‘Lives' Column, O.

This episode was recorded at Lake Austin Spa Resort with a live audience for their "Wise Women" Month.Grace Young is a three-time James Beard Award–winning cookbook author, culinary historian, and community advocate with numerous accolades and awards. Known for her cookbooks Wisdom of the Chinese Kitchen and Stir-Frying to the Sky's Edge, Grace spent decades preserving Chinese culinary traditions. But in 2020, everything changed.When the pandemic hit, Grace walked through Manhattan's Chinatown and found a community in crisis. Shops were empty, restaurants were closing, and lives were being upended by fear and misinformation. Without any activist background, Grace stepped forward—using her voice and storytelling skills to raise awareness and rally support. That spontaneous act of courage evolved into a nationwide movement to save America's Chinatowns, earning her the Julia Child Award, the James Beard Foundation's Humanitarian of the Year Award, and recognition as one of Forbes 50 Over 50.In this conversation, recorded live at Lake Austin Spa Resort for Wise Women Month, Grace shares the profound lessons she's learned about wisdom, community, and rediscovering purpose later in life. We talk about her activism journey, how she redefined her calling in her 60s, and why connection—and showing up for one another—is the truest form of wisdom. In This EpisodeThe moment Grace realized she had to speak up for ChinatownHow preservation became her life's mission—from recipes to communityWhat her parents' traditions taught her about longevity and healthThe connection between wisdom, food, and sustainabilityWhy mom-and-pop shops are the soul of AmericaHow she overcame fear, found purpose, and redefined strengthPractical wisdom for finding purpose at any ageLearn more:graceyoung.comhttps://linktr.ee/stirfryguruhttps://www.instagram.com/stirfryguru/______Please remember to rate, review, and follow the show – and share with a friend!Find Amy's affiliates and discount codes: https://amyedwards.info/affiliatepageSky Rock Sedona: https://www.skyrocksedona.com/20% Discount Link:https://www.marriott.com/event-reservations/reservation-link.mi?id=1759866624184&key=CORP&app=resvlinkAll links: amyedwards.infoInstagram: @realamyedwardsFight For Her: fightforher.netTikTok: @themagicbabeYouTube: YouTube ChannelPodcast: The Amy Edwards Show PodcastFree Course: The Ageless MindsetFull Course: The Youthfulness HackWork with Amy: Book a Call Let's get you to your HAPPIEST and most RADIANT!

Even in life's lowest valleys, God's purpose still stands. In this powerful message from our Peaks and Valleys series, Matthew Balentine reminds us that the presence of struggle does not mean the absence of God. Drawing from 1 Samuel 16, we see how Samuel, Jesse, and David each faced moments of uncertainty, pride, and obscurity—but God was working through it all. This sermon invites you to trust that even when you feel overlooked or misunderstood, God is shaping something far greater beneath the surface. When you walk with the King, your valley can become a place of transformation and purpose.

Earlier this month, Brett Hollins embarked on a road trip to Oregon from his parents’ home in San Antonio. He didn’t come to experience the high desert splendor of Central Oregon or to snap selfies at Multnomah Falls. He came to present workshops and play basketball with inmates at six prisons across the state, including Snake River Correctional Institution in Ontario and Warner Creek Correctional Facility in Lakeview, both of which he once served time in. In 2017, Hollins was sentenced to nearly six years in prison after pleading guilty to stabbing two men during a brawl that broke out during a party he and his friends attended near the campus of Southern Oregon University in Ashland. In 2021, then-Gov. Kate Brown commuted his sentence after he had served nearly four years of his six-year sentence. The Oregonian/OregonLive sports writer Bill Oram has extensively profiled Hollins’ amazing journey of rehabilitation, including his decision to return to Ashland to play college basketball at Southern Oregon University, where he graduated last June and served as a team captain. More recently, Oram wrote about Hollins’ return to Snake River to play basketball and inspire adults in custody with workshops he developed through his new nonprofit, The Side Door Foundation. Hollins joins us, along with Michael Reese, director of the Oregon Department of Corrections, to share their perspectives on rehabilitation and the obstacles to it inside and outside of prison.
Pastor Blake will continue his series titled, "Refreshed: From Connection to Impact" this morning focusing on, "Finding Purpose."

Holly Klaesner of FOCUS Marines Foundation joins the show to talk about the organization's mission of helping veterans transition to civilian life. Founded by Marines, the program runs four times a year at a private farm near Augusta, Missouri, providing seven days of support to veterans from all branches. The conversation covers the challenges of PTSD, divorce, family trauma, and finding purpose after military service. Upcoming events include a live broadcast in Eureka on September 11, the Unforgettable Ride fundraiser for Alzheimer's on September 26 in Wentzville, and a new “History of the Lou with Sue” radio segment on automobile history.
Work has been part of God’s design for humanity since the very beginning. Genesis 2:15 reminds us that the Lord placed Adam in the Garden of Eden “to work it and take care of it.” Even though the Fall introduced toil, frustration, and hardship into our labor, God still uses our work to shape us, bless us, and draw us closer to Him. If you’ve ever wrestled with the Monday morning blues or felt like your job was mundane and meaningless, this prayer is for you. God calls us to shift our perspective—from working for human approval to working as though serving Him directly. When we resist complaining, guard our hearts from pride, and dedicate our daily efforts to His glory, even the simplest of tasks become meaningful. Main Takeaways Work was created by God as a gift, not as punishment. True satisfaction in labor comes from serving God, not seeking human recognition. Scripture encourages us to see our jobs as opportunities to glorify the Lord (Colossians 3:23, Ephesians 6:7). A faithful heart at work can transform even ordinary responsibilities into acts of worship. Bible Verse References Genesis 2:15 – God placed Adam in the Garden to work and care for it. Philippians 2:14 – Do everything without grumbling or arguing. Colossians 3:23 – Work as if working for the Lord, not human masters. Ephesians 6:7 – Serve wholeheartedly as if serving God. 1 Peter 4:11 – Use your gifts to bring praise to God. 1 Corinthians 10:31 – Whatever you do, do it all for God’s glory. 2 Timothy 2:15 – Do your best to present yourself approved to God.

Australia's coolest psychologist, Ali Hill is a CEO, sought-after speaker, author, podcaster, mum of 2 and runner.Perhaps it's no wonder that after being overcome by a tremendous sense of overwhelm 2 years ago, Ali (as a ‘head mechanic' to use her words) went on a quest to understand society's obsession with ‘busy' and how to live a life filled with meaning, even amongst the busyness.That quest resulted in Ali not only making changes in her own work and life but also writing a fantastic book called ‘Stand Out: A Real World Guide to Get Clear, Find Purpose & Become the Boss of Busy' and launching one of my favourite podcasts, Stand Out Life.In this conversation, we discuss where her interest in behavioural science and psychology originated from, the fear of failure, how to live a life filled with meaning (even amongst the ‘busy') and her experience running the 22km race at Ultra Trail Australia this year.Plus, I turn the tables and ask whether a psychologist -- with all the tools, knowledge and insight she has -- can still experience the Imposter Complex.
Do you ever feel like you're falling behind in life, waiting for your breakthrough, or wondering why things aren't happening faster? In this episode, I wanted to share some encouragement and Biblical truth about finding contentment in the waiting season, embracing God's timing, and learning that slow growth is still growth. You'll discover how to shift your perspective from frustration to faith, trust that God is working in hidden ways, and find purpose in the process — even when life feels slow.Whether you're waiting on a dream, a relationship, or clarity about your next step, this episode will remind you that delay does not equal defeat. God is preparing you, strengthening your faith, and growing your roots deep for what's ahead.SUPPORT BY WORDS: https://buymeacoffee.com/bywordsSHOP MY BOOKS:Waking Up: Living Open — https://amzn.to/3LusgrzLove Is Devotional — https://amzn.to/3S6OZhs FREE Path to Purpose Guide: https://hannahhughes.myflodesk.com/pathwaytopurpose My favorite Bible studies + devotionals - HANNAHHUGHES10 for 10% off: https://thedailygraceco.com?dt_id=300773 Connect: www.thehannahhughes.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thehannahhughes/ https://www.instagram.com/bywordspodcast Shop my Amazon faves: https://www.amazon.com/shop/thehannahhughes
Our guest in this episode is Jem Fuller, a leadership and culture coach and author from the beautiful Bells Beach, Victoria. For over a decade, Jem has been guiding people on profound journeys, both literally to the Himalayas and metaphorically inward, to help them build frameworks for genuine connection and purpose.In our wonderful chat, Jem shares his evolved mission to combat the modern malady of disconnection. We explore his powerful concept of finding your "4% genius zone" and his unique, optimistic view on using AI as a tool to give us back the time for what truly matters: our human relationships. Key points discussed include:* Find your 4% genius zone by courageously focusing on what you love and do best.* True fulfillment comes from stripping away the noise and reconnecting with yourself, others, and a greater purpose.* In the age of AI, our human imperfection and shared felt experiences become our most valuable assets.Listen to the podcast to find out more.Innovabiz Substack is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.Show Notes from this episode with Jem FullerIt was an absolute delight to welcome Jem Fuller, leadership coach and philosopher-guide, back to the Innovabuzz podcast for his third visit. It's been nine years since our first chat, and in that time, Jem's mission has deepened in the most remarkable ways. He continues to explore the frameworks that allow us to truly connect with ourselves and others, but now he's applying that wisdom to some of the biggest questions of our time, from finding our true purpose to navigating the age of AI with our humanity intact.Our conversation was a powerful reminder that the journey inward is the most important one we can take. Jem shared his own evolution, driven by a global community of peers who challenged him to crystallize his work down to its most potent essence. It's a journey that has led him to create profound, life-altering experiences for others while building a philanthropic legacy aimed at creating waves of positive change in the world.Finding Your 4%: The Courage to Live in Your Genius ZoneOne of the most profound ideas Jem shared was the concept of finding your "4%." He explained the well-known 80/20 rule, but then challenged us to take it a step further: apply the rule to that potent 20% to discover the 4% of your work that is truly your genius. This is the space where you deliver the most value, the work you truly love, and where time seems to disappear because you're in a state of flow.But this isn't just a productivity hack; it's an act of courage. It requires us to consciously cut out the noise and the tasks that drain us, even if they feel important, to build a life where we spend most of our time in that genius zone. For Jem, this meant redesigning his entire approach to his work, leading to a model that creates immense impact not just for his clients, but for communities in need.The Himalayan Journey: Stripping Away the Layers to Find MeaningNowhere is this focus more evident than in Jem's redesigned Himalayan program. He shared the powerful narrative of this journey, which consciously guides clients from a world of opulence and all the stuff money can buy, to the raw, humbling simplicity of the remote mountains. Guests start in the finest hotels and end up drinking chai in a slum, invited as guests, not tourists. This process is a careful, deliberate stripping away of the external layers we all carry.By peeling back the noise, the distractions, and the societal definitions of success, the program creates a space for people to ask the biggest questions: Who am I beneath all these roles? And why am I here? It's a journey that culminates not in a simple return to normal life, but in a rebuilt foundation where inner peace and a passion for meaningful contribution become the new true north.Our Great Disconnection: The Path Back to Ourselves and Each OtherAt the heart of Jem's philosophy is a diagnosis of our modern malady: disconnection. He believes we have become disconnected from each other, from ourselves, and from the reality that we are all intrinsically part of the same greater system. We're pushed apart by algorithms and distracted by the busyness of life, forgetting that we have far more in common than we have in difference.The antidote, Jem suggests, is to consciously remember and reinvest in connection. This involves reconnecting with the essence of who we are, deepening our bonds with other humans, and finding a sense of purpose that extends beyond ourselves. It's a simple truth, yet profoundly challenging in a world that constantly pulls our attention elsewhere.The Midwifery of AI: Nurturing Technology to Reclaim Our TimeIn a fascinating turn, Jem applies this philosophy of connection to the rise of Artificial Intelligence. As a self-proclaimed "default optimist," he sees incredible potential in AI, not as a replacement for humanity, but as a tool to restore it. He shared the beautiful metaphor of our role being the "midwifery of this emerging intelligence," suggesting we have a responsibility to nurture it with integrity, compassion, and care.Jem's hope is that AI will give us back the gift of time by handling the tasks that consume our days. If we are conscious and clever enough, he argues, we can reinvest that reclaimed time where it matters most: in our human-to-human relationships. Imagine having the space to grab a coffee with a colleague, not to talk about work, but to simply ask, "How are you?"The Value of Our Imperfection: Why Humanity is Our Greatest AssetThis led to one of the most beautiful points of our conversation. As AI becomes more "perfect," Jem argues that our human imperfections will become our most valuable asset. The moments when our voice trembles during a tough conversation, when we stumble over our words, or when we sit in shared empathy with another person—these are the things AI can never replicate.This shared felt experience is uniquely human. The ability to feel awe at a rainbow, to create art through blood, sweat, and tears, or to offer compassion to another are the cornerstones of our relevance. It's a powerful reframe that urges us to lean into our messy, beautiful humanity rather than chase an impossible standard of perfection.A Simple Invitation: The Transformative Power of the PauseTo bring these big ideas into our daily lives, Jem left us with a wonderfully simple and actionable step. He invites us to take a sticky note, write the word "Pause," and place it next to an existing daily habit, like our coffee machine. When you see the note, simply pause. Take three deep breaths before you continue with your task.This tiny ritual is an invitation to create a small pocket of presence in your day. Over time, the habit becomes ingrained, and the pause becomes a natural moment to reconnect with yourself. It's a reminder that the journey to greater connection and meaning doesn't have to start with a grand gesture; it can begin with a single, conscious breath.In Summary: My conversation with Jem Fuller was a masterclass in conscious living. His message is a powerful call to action: find the courage to focus on your true genius, strip away the noise to reconnect with what matters, and embrace technology not as an escape, but as a bridge back to our shared humanity. By cherishing our imperfections and creating moments of pause, we can begin to build a more connected and meaningful life, one breath at a time.The Buzz - Our Innovation RoundHere are Jem's answers to the questions of our innovation round. Listen to the conversation to get the full scoop.* Most innovative use of AI to enhance human relationships – Building an executive team of AIs to handle strategy, explicitly to give humans more time for their relationships.* Best thing to integrate AI and human connection – Consciously training his AI assistant to prompt him to switch off his computer and connect with real people.* Differentiate by leveraging AI – Do the things AI can't, like handwriting a Christmas card or picking up the phone to personally celebrate someone.ActionGet a sticky note and write the word "Pause" on it. Stick it next to an existing daily habit, like your coffee machine, and when you see it, take three breaths before you continue.Reach OutYou can reach out and thank Jem on his website, JemFuller.com, or directly via email at jem@jemfuller.com.

She addresses the intense pressure and profound disappointment International Medical Graduates (IMGs) face when they go unmatched for a residency spot in the U.S. Drawing from her own experience, Khutaija reframes this perceived setback as an opportunity, detailing her pivot into the world of clinical research.

Khutaija highlights the immense purpose found in contributing to pivotal studies for new treatments, arguing that clinical research is not a consolation prize but a powerful and rewarding field.

You know that feeling when you look around at your life and think, "This isn't what I pictured at all"?Maybe you imagined climbing the corporate ladder while being the Pinterest-perfect mom. Or maybe you thought you'd have more control over how things turned out. But here you are—juggling a demanding job, feeling guilty about missing bedtime stories, and wondering if this chaos is just "your season" or if there's actually a way through it.Andrea Nanigian gets it. She went from successful corporate executive to full-time caregiver overnight when her son developed severe OCD. Twelve years later, she's not just surviving—she's thriving and helping other parents do the same through her podcast "This Way Up."Here's what you'll walk away with:
It is easy to feel lost and hopeless in a world that feels increasingly divided. This past week had been particularly weighted and the collective suffering is apparent. This video explores mindfulness, self-care, and finding purpose and even amidst political disillusionment."Thanks for tuning in.
