Happy Mindful Monday Everyone!In this week's episode, our host Allie Brooke sits down with Ali Hall.Ali Hall is a Bay Area-based artist specializing in atmospheric landscape paintings with abstract realism. She holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Cal Poly San Luis Obispo, where she studied painting and graphic design. Her creative journey deepened during a personal recovery period, when painting became a source of healing and reflection. What began as a therapeutic outlet evolved into a dynamic practice that explores the intersection of memory, nature, and emotional restoration. Ali works primarily in acrylic, blending fluid brushstrokes, seamless color transitions, and intuitive mark-making to capture both the energy and the calm of California's coastline. Her painterly style is often described as what one might see when one squints and takes in a scene all at once, evoking a softened memory shaped by light, movement, and mood. Each piece carries an immersive quality, inviting viewers to pause and reconnect with their inner landscapes and the natural world.Her work has been featured in Clean Living Magazine, on KRON4TV's Live in the Bay, and at national and international art fairs, including the Superfine Art Fair in San Francisco, the Reno Tahoe International Art Show, and with SAB Gallery in Los Angeles. She also leads creative wellness workshops, helping others access creativity as a tool for reflection and emotional release. Ali seeks to create visually striking and thought-provoking pieces that foster meaningful connections between herself, her audience, and the environment. Looking ahead, she's eager to explore new themes, experiment further, and expand her reach through exhibitions and collaborations.In this episode, we discussThe Language of Coastal Landscapes: Exploring how abstract realism and nature-inspired art become a vessel for emotional storytelling, and why the coast serves as a powerful medium for deep reflection.The Healing Power of the Canvas: A deep dive into the intersection of creativity, healing, and purpose, and how engaging with art—whether as the creator or the observer—facilitates emotional release and restoration.Creativity as a Portal to Purpose: An exploration of the specific artistic experiences and pieces that bridge the gap between aesthetic beauty and internal transformation.Art as a Wellness Practice: How wellness-inspired art experiences provide a safe, somatic container for processing complex emotions and reconnecting with your inner truth.The Core of Authenticity in Art and Life: Why being true to your creative voice is a prerequisite for any healing journey, and how to shed "performance" in favor of raw, authentic expression.The "Everywoman" as Artist: Practical advice for those who don't consider themselves "artistic" to begin using creative expression as a tangible tool for personal well-being and soul-alignment. How to Connect w| AliWebsiteInstagram The Growth METHOD.

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

In this episode, I'm opening up about something incredibly close to my heart: the power of service and how it has shaped my life through both joy and unimaginable loss. I share my early experiences volunteering with Meals on Wheels, the years I spent serving in Haiti with Haitian Roots, and the profound shift that happened after losing my 14-year-old son, Gage. In the middle of grief, I watched his friends search for comfort and it became clear that we needed to help them channel their pain into purpose. That moment became the beginning of the Gage Schroeder Compassion Foundation. You'll hear how we created a compassion-based curriculum for teens and elementary students, started Compassion Clubs across the country, and awarded nearly $80,000 in scholarships over the past eight years. I also talk about rebuilding after divorce, moving back to Utah, and how serving alongside kids continues to bring healing, purpose, and connection into my life.   Resources: The Meeting Place Membership Rock The Reels 1:1 Coaching Free Client Welcome Guide Additional Trainings and Resources Connect with Brittni: Follow me on the Gram - @brittni.schroeder Join my Facebook Group  Visit my website Subscribe to my Youtube You can find the complete show notes here: https://brittnischroeder.com/podcast/finding-healing-through-service

In this episode, we sit down with Greg and Stacey Oliver. Greg was a worship pastor and his wife Stacey grew up in the mission field. But that did not prevent their difficult journey of Greg's hidden sexual addiction and Stacey's deep insecurity and people-pleasing. However, their redemptive journey led to healing, freedom, and restored intimacy. What began as an exhausting struggle became the doorway to discovering that sexual addiction isn't ultimately about sex; it's really an intimacy disorder. Now as the founders of Awaken, a faith-based recovery ministry, they help others find the same hope and transformation they've experienced. Together we explore where sexual addiction and related struggles often begin, how shame and unmet emotional needs play a role, and what it looks like to pursue recovery that's both Gospel-centered and therapeutically wise. Their story offers not only honesty and hope but also a powerful reminder that true freedom comes when we let God meet us in our deepest places of need.

Send us a textTrish's story is one of deep trauma, family violence, addiction, and survival. From hiding in closets during violent outbursts as a child, to discovering her biological father through a birth certificate, to losing her cousin Neil Stonechild in the notorious “Starlight Tour,” her pain ran deep. She survived brutal domestic abuse, was found unconscious in a bathtub by her daughter, and nearly ended her life — but was saved by the love of her father.Now in recovery, Trish is rebuilding her life, dancing at powwows, homeschooling her children, and creating her own regalia-making business.

In this episode of In All Things, Dean is joined by Sean Nemecek, Regional Director for PIR Ministries and the author of The Weary Leader's Guide to Burnout, for a candid and compassionate conversation about the realities pastors face behind the pulpit. Sean and Dean discuss the misconceptions surrounding pastoral burnout, the isolation many pastors experience, and the unique pressures that come with shepherding a congregation. Sean offers heartfelt encouragement and practical advice for both pastors and congregations on how to foster healthy rhythms of rest, support, and care so that churches can thrive and their leaders can flourish. Whether you're a pastor, elder, or member of a congregation, this conversation is a powerful reminder that pastors are people, too – and that building healthy church communities requires caring for the shepherds who care for us.

When host Jenny Dempsey got laid off back in 2022, she had no clue what I was doing. She was crying on her couch, trying to figure out who she even was without my job. No one hands you a guide for that kind of loss. It honestly felt like the ground fell out from under her.And then along comes Steve Jaffe. Turns out, he literally wrote the book I wish I had back then: The Layoff Journey: From Dismissal to Discovery.Steve's been through four layoffs (yes, four!) and instead of letting it crush him, he mapped out the stages of grief that come with job loss. Reading his book brought up so many of my own memories, everything from the shock and shame to that messy process of rebuilding your identity. It made me cry, it gave me hope, and it reminded me I'm not alone.In this conversation with Steve, we talk about:Why losing a job takes you through the grieving process.The awkward shame we carry after a layoff, and how to drop it.Why slowing down to process before jumping into the job hunt can change everythingThe “baggage” you might unknowingly carry into your next role.And what you need to hear if you just got laid off yesterday.This one hit so close to home for me, and if you've ever been laid off, or even just wondered who you are without your job, I think it'll resonate with you too.Connect with SteveGrab Steve's book The Layoff Journey on Amazon: The Layoff JourneyLearn more at: thestevejaffe.comFollow Steve on Instagram: @stevejaffethelayoffjourneyConnect with Steve on LinkedIn: Steve Jaffe on LinkedIn Thanks for tuning in to The Career Flipper!If this episode made you think, laugh, or feel a little braver about your own flip, do me a favor:

Ep 158 Description:  “If something feels good and you are not harming anyone, keep doing it, because pleasure will give you health, as simple as that.” —Samara Ferrara Imagine for a moment that your body's capacity for pleasure is your greatest strength in birth. That every fear, every past pain, could be transformed into a source of profound power and release. This isn't a fantasy; it's an ancient wisdom rooted not in fear, but in profound joy, release, and presence. Samara Ferrara is a professional home birth midwife in Mexico who brings a blend of science, spirit, and sacred care to her work. Having witnessed birth as a child and later birthing her own three children at home, she embodies a deep trust in the body's innate wisdom. Her courageous journey of healing from past trauma offers profound insight into how women can reclaim their sovereignty and transform the birthing process through pleasure. Tune in as Debra and Samara dive into the heart of Samara's practice, exploring how her personal story with pleasure and spiritual connection guides her work. She also shares a moving homebirth experience that revealed birth as a rite of passage and opens up about how motherhood, loss, and life's deepest cycles have shaped her sacred service to others.    Connect with Debra!

Through timeless wisdom and radical insight, Derek reveals how love isn't just a feeling—it's a fierce practice, a quantum principle, and the blueprint for personal and global transformation. From Mandela to Martin Luther King Jr., from Jesus to the Bhagavad Gita, he shows how loving the truth within ourselves—and even within our so-called enemies—can resurrect hope, dissolve fear, and spark miracles.

In this deep and soulful journey through Parshat Chukas, Rabbi Yisroel Bernath unpacks one of the most perplexing and powerful moments in the Torah: the copper snake on a pole.Why did G-d command Moses to use the very symbol of suffering, the snake, as a healing instrument? What does it mean that people had to look up at the snake to be cured?Through timeless Jewish wisdom, vulnerable personal insight, and psychological depth, Rabbi Bernath explores the mystery of pain, the challenge of resilience, and the spiritual art of transforming darkness into light. You'll walk away with a new perspective on your own struggles and perhaps, a new path to healing.Key Takeaways:Transformation, Not Avoidance: True healing doesn't come from avoiding our pain, but from facing it with courage and elevating it with meaning.The Snake Above vs. the Snake Below: The same experience can be seen from a higher or lower perspective. One brings despair; the other, depth.The Poison Is the Cure: Just like antivenom is made from venom, your healing may emerge from the very thing that once hurt you.Don't Run, Look Up: When we stop running from the “snakes” in our lives and look upward—to G-d, to our higher selves—we discover the blessing buried in the bite.Every Crisis Holds a Blessing: Like Jacob wrestling the angel, we can say to our struggle: “I will not let you go until you bless me.” That's Jewish resilience.You Are Sacred Even in Pain: Sometimes the deepest truth is not an answer to your question, but the awareness that your soul is Divine, loved, and never alone.#healing #Judaism #Jewish #coppersnake #healingthroughpain #TorahPortion #TorahLessons #Torah #torahpsychology #JewishResiliance #struggle #Redemption #divinepurpose #traumatotransformation #trauma #God #snake #parshatchukat #spritualgrowth Support US and Win BIG www.ndgraffle.comSupport the showGot your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Episode 70-- Friends, this may be one of the most important episodes I've ever recorded on the podcast. This is an episode that every parent, and probably every young adult and teen needs to hear. Please listen and then share with everyone you know who could benefit from it.This episode is part 1of this conversation. Part 2 is coming next week where I go through some of the most important things John and I talked about, and I go into them with a little more depth. In part 1, this episode, John Begeman tells his story of pornography exposure as a child that led to years of addiction, shame and hiding. But then he shares the story of the healing he is walking in now as a man in his 20s, free from the bondage porn held in. John also shares how his parents handled this issue of pornography exposure and addiction in his life—what didn't help and what did. He is very honest, and I believe what he shares is incredibly helpful and important for every parent to hear.You can't see it because this is audio and not video, but I cried through this entire episode. I cried for John, for his mom, for every child that is exposed to porn and suffers as a result, and for every mom that finds her child has been exposed to porn and has to navigate the fear and hurt that comes from that. I cried for all of us and the way porn is devastating and destroying lives. This episode is raw and real and honest, but ultimately it is hopeful. YES! There is hope still in the darkness. There is always hope because there is always the love of God, which is bigger and stronger than any darkness.And my hope is that with this episode and then with the next, you will feel empowered with tools to make the best choices to help your kids and yourself, wherever you see yourself in this story. John's testimony as well as the resources he mentions will be such a great help. I pray this episode is a blessing to you and I am so grateful for John and the work he's doing to help set people free.Resources mentioned in this episode:Find Pure Desire Ministries hereFind Summit Ministries hereFind my book It's Time to Talk to Your Kids About Porn hereFind Hopeful Mom hereFind the 7 Pillars workbook and groups hereThe Greta Eskridge Podcast is a part of the Christian Parenting Podcast Network.
