Podcasts about Flourish

Can you chase high performance and well-being without burning out? In this special crossover episode of Grow the Good, I'm resharing a super relevant conversation with Dr. Jon Beale and Nick Holton from the FlourishFM podcast.On the other side of the mic, I open up about my journey as a world champion athlete, speaker, and coach, and how this pursuit of meaningful accomplishment has led me to reimagine success. We get into what it means to matter, why outcome-focused goals can drain us, and how intentional imbalance (yes, imbalance!) can actually help us thrive.You'll hear about:- Why “intentional imbalance” can be a healthier alternative to chasing perfect balance- The difference between personal success and meaningful accomplishment- How the concept of “mattering” fuels motivation, connection, and sustainable performance- Practical tools to align goals with values and avoid burnoutOriginally aired on FlourishFM, this is a conversation I couldn't wait to share again.--------------The Grow the Good Podcast is produced by Palm Tree Pod Co.

Episode Summary: In this week’s episode, I’m talking with Dawn Ward, who shares her painful story of being a mother to two sons who have struggled with addiction. Dawn shares how God has used those wounds, healed them, and given her purpose in her pain to encourage us that God never wastes our pain. Quotables from the episode: I was a Christian and I thought that if I took my children church and taught them the Bible and did all the things according to God's word then those evil elements of the world would somehow not get to our family, but that didn't prove to be true. When I tried to outrun old wounds from my childhood, these old pains and things that had hurt me so much came back to haunt me when my son became involved with the wrong friends and the wrong movies and troublesome behaviors. Both of my sons struggled with addiction and I faced intense guilt and self-blame and shame because at that point I thought it was my fault. I remember crying out to God, “I thought that I was doing better in my relationship with you. I thought I had more faith. I thought I trusted you. And now I'm just in a big pool of my own tears.” And that is so often what happens when we hear messages in childhood that are not always based in truth. Earlier in my life, in my career, my faith, or things that God was tugging at my heart to do, I was reluctant to step out and be bold and do those things because I didn't feel adequate. I didn't feel like I would be able to do it. And I look back on opportunities that God put in front of me, and I told myself I couldn't do them. There came a breaking point where I realized I have to figure this out, because if I don’t figure out how God sees me and the things that he’s given me responsibility for and that he trusts me to be a wife and to be a mother, but yet I’m not trusting myself to do it with his help. I needed to trust God to begin to reveal lies and the thought patterns that were holding me back and affecting all my relationships. One day my husband confronted me and said, “You are going to worry yourself to death.” And I told him he had permission to write that on my tombstone, “She worried herself to death.” But I heard the Lord say to me, “No, it’s going to say she trusted God.” That was an aha moment for me when I realized that every choice that I made moving forward, I needed to ask, “Do I trust you, Lord? Even though this doesn’t make sense. Even though I can’t understand why it’s going this way.” So, I wrote a book hoping maybe other moms wouldn’t have to go through as much pain and all of the hard lessons I had to go through. It’s really about getting our relationship back with the Lord and having our faith in him that can withstand these storms and helping us to trust him in the process of those difficult and painful things that we have no control over. That’s the same thing with us with these wounds. If we don’t allow God to heal them the way that he wants to heal them. Most of us wouldn’t sign up for half the stuff that we end up having to go through in our life. But the beautiful thing is that when we turn it over to God and we trust God through it, he can bring something beautiful out of those painful wounds. Another benefit that comes from that is our relationship with our children and our loved ones, whether they’re in a good place or not, it becomes healthier just because we become healthier and stronger and we’re healing. I look back and sometimes truthfully wish I didn’t have to bear this trial, or that my children didn’t have to bear their trial. But I can see that God has cultivated trust and faith and hope through his grace into my life. And I’m so grateful for that because I don’t think I could have really healed from some of the things I went through as a child without him working through the process of this healing with me as an adult. God is not finished writing your story, or your child’s story. He loves you very much. If we can imagine how much we love our child and to imagine that God loves them that much more, and he loves us too. When we look at our God and what he is capable of and realize that his eye is on that one little lost sheep that’s wandering, that gives us hope.

The world is full of people right now trying to tell you that they have the secret to success. I'm not one of them. No matter how good an idea you might have to remember that nothing works all the time and there's something wrong with everything. But for your thought and consideration let me speakand seek to explain what I have learned about what I call Zone-Based lLving and how being in the right zone in the right time will be very helpful to you as you deal with what is a rather rugged and challenging way of life right now in which most people are quite tired and don't know what to do. Maybe this 15 minutes might be helpful as a start to get back on track and have a sense of energy in the midst of difficult times. And now let's see what the STOSH has to say about the program. Living in the Zones: How I've Learned to Perform, Transform, and Flourish at Every Stage of Life By Stan Hustad If you're going to survive—better yet, thrive—in today's uncertain, noisy, and sometimes nasty world, you need more than a goal or a five-year plan. You need zones. That's right—zone-based living is not just a quirky phrase I came up with; it's a powerful way to understand where you are in life, what your role is, and how to perform at your best, no matter what stage you're in. This week on the program, I dove deep into the idea that living well in today's complex world demands that we know where we are—not just physically or emotionally, but spiritually and professionally too. These five "zones" I've discovered over years of coaching, teaching, performing, and living... well, they're not only helpful—they're essential. So allow me to take you on a little journey through the five zones of life, with just enough wisdom, wit, and warning to maybe get you thinking, “Hey, I need to figure out what zone I'm in—and how to get to the next one.” The Five Zones of Life 1. The Curiosity Zone This is where we start, where we play, and where we ask a thousand questions an hour. Most of us lose it by the time we “grow up,” but here's the big idea: what if everything you thought you knew... was wrong? Could you live with that possibility? The Curiosity Zone isn't just for kids. It's for entrepreneurs, artists, scientists, and anyone who refuses to accept the world as it is. Stay curious, my friends. 2. The Impact Zone Now you're in adulthood. You're responsible. You're no longer just preparing—you're performing. This is where you grow your audience, build influence, and—yes—make a dent in the universe. It's not enough to exist. You've got to matter. And this is where our modern-day Dale Carnegies are born. Or better yet, reborn. 3. The Transformation Zone Congratulations—you've made an impact! But now it's time to do something bigger. Better. Bolder. This zone isn't about tweaking your brand or reorganizing your sock drawer. It's about radical reinvention. You're not changing because you have to. You're transforming because you can. This is the zone where ideas meet courage. 4. The Generosity Zone If you've made it here, you've succeeded. But the question is, who else has? If your success doesn't lift others, you've missed the point. Generosity isn't just about money—it's about time, attention, mentorship, kindness. Civilizations crumble without generosity. So if you're still hoarding, you're still stuck. 5. The Encore Zone Here's where I live. You don't retire—you re-fire. You've got wisdom, experience, and one more show to give. In fact, some of your best work might still be ahead. (Just ask Michelangelo, who created masterpieces into his 80s.) This zone is about finishing well, leaving a legacy, and making sure the world is just a little better because you were here. Memorable Takeaways - “What zone are you in? And what zone do you need to grow into?” - “You're not just in the marketplace. You are the marketplace.” - “Curiosity didn't kill the cat—it built the airplane, wrote the song, and launched the podcast.” - “Success without generosity is just ego with a good haircut.” - “You're on sale every day. Better learn how to sell you.” Remember This - Curiosity keeps you young. - Impact makes you relevant. - Transformation makes you necessary. - Generosity makes you unforgettable. - Encore makes you eternal. A Call to Action So where are you today? Soul tired? A little lost in the cultural noise? Wondering if you've still got it? Let me tell you something: you do. You absolutely do. You just need a map. And that's what the zone model can be—a compass for your calling, your career, and your contribution. If this message resonates with you, reach out. I'm here for coaching, conversation, counsel, or just a cup of encouragement. Let's figure out your zone—and how to get to the next one. And remember: in a world gone sideways, those who live with purpose and perform with love will always rise. All the best and blessings to you. And as always—live well, finish well, and don't forget to flourish. Let's talk: StanEdWittRadio.net  

Dr. Kurt Bjorklund examines Ephesians 6:1-4 to reveal God's design for family, emphasizing that parents are called primarily to nurture their children's spiritual well-being rather than merely pursuing worldly success. This message reminds us that while we should balance encouragement with admonishment in raising children, God offers abundant mercy and peace even when—like the perfect Father whose children sometimes rebel—we don't get everything right.Message Blog and Transcript - https://www.orchardhillchurch.com/blog-post/2025/6/16/made-to-flourish-3-familySubscribe to Orchard Hill Plus! - https://orchardhillplus.buzzsprout.com/shareConnect with Orchard Hill ChurchWebsite | https://www.orchardhillchurch.comMobile App | https://https://www.orchardhillchurch.com/appYouTube | https://www.youtube.com/channel/OrchardHillChurchPAFacebook | https://www.facebook.com/orchardhillchurch/Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/orchardhillchurch/Twitter | https://twitter.com/orchard_hill

June 16, 2025: Corina Clark, COO at Gardner Health Services and one of Becker's "COOs to Know," discusses her transformative journey as a leader in communal, equitable healthcare. Drawing from influential mentors who shaped her leadership philosophy, Corina discusses how equity must serve as "the lens through which we look at clinical decision-making" rather than just a checkbox exercise. She offers practical strategies for balancing operational excellence with personal sustainability, including implementing scheduled "no meeting zones" and leading impromptu zumba classes that reconnect her team to their core purpose. Corina's forward-thinking vision for community health aims to transcend traditional care models, reimagining spaces where prevention, wellness, and trust-building form the foundation of truly patient-centered care.

As we continue to think about what it means to Flourish, today we dive into the topic of Creativity - learning it's about so much more than the arts - it's about shifting your perspective, solving problems, and yes (gulp) change. We talk honestly about why we resist creativity, confronting our fear of vulnerability, our reluctance to challenge our comfort zone, and our tendency to nod along, agree that creativity matters, and then stay safely in the box. Creativity is vital - and necessary to adapt and grow. We wrap up today's episode with practical tips to step into the creative person we were designed to be, embracing the truth that creativity isn't about perfection—it's about curiosity, courage, and the willingness to ourselves to grow.

Together, we explore: ·         Why mindset matters more than ever in midlife ·         How the “old tapes” we play in our heads keep us stuck—and how to replace them ·         The difference between affirmations and declarations (and why declarations are so powerful) ·         Simple, daily practices like writing and speaking truth that can shift everything ·         How to give yourself permission to think differently and be open to new ways of living Tiffany encourages us to embrace the wisdom of “Be open to everything and attached to nothing,” as Wayne Dyer once said, and reminds us that we are never too old to grow, heal, and change our story. This episode is a must-listen if you've been feeling stuck, weighed down by negative self-talk, or ready to step into a lighter, freer version of yourself. ✨ Tune in and be inspired to start rewriting your script—one powerful thought at a time.   Resources from Tiffany Owen: To claim your special gift from Tiffany, message her with the keyword Reset: https://coachtiffanyowen.com/offers Read Tiffany's Book:  https://www.amazon.com/Wounded-Warrior-Participate-Your-Rescue/dp/B0CPLYTW57/ref=monarch_sidesheet_title Connect With Tiffany Owen: Website: https://coachtiffanyowen.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tiffany.owen Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/coachtiffanyowen LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tiffany-owen-texas    Connect with Lynne: If you're looking for a community of like-minded women on a journey - just like you are - to improved health and wellness, overall balance, and increased confidence, check out Lynne's private community in The Energized & Healthy Women's Club.

Today, we begin a brand new series - Flourish, where we work to live out the growth we've been cultivating. We're kicking things off by taking a look at the concept of Investment - the process of building your life with intention. Lasting change doesn't come from big, dramatic moves, but from daily intentional actions and choices. So in today's episode, we're focusing on how the small but consistent choices we make each day help us to establish a life that reflects what truly matters. We're working to shift from just “getting through the day” to actively creating a meaningful future. The choices we make today shape the life we experience tomorrow. Whether it's strengthening relationships, pursuing personal development, or taking small steps toward our dreams, every investment matters. Investing in what truly matters isn't extra. It's essential.

Dr. Kurt Bjorklund begins a new message series called Made to Flourish. He explores Genesis 1-2 to reveal God's original design for work as a pre-fall mandate, showing that our value comes from being created in God's image rather than from our productivity. This powerful message challenges our culture's tendency to define ourselves by our careers, inviting us to embrace both meaningful work and sacred rest as God intended, finding true flourishing in the balance He established from creation.Message Summary & Transcript - https://www.orchardhillchurch.com/blog-post/2025/6/2/made-to-flourish-1-workSubscribe to Orchard Hill Plus! - https://orchardhillplus.buzzsprout.com/shareConnect with Orchard Hill ChurchWebsite | https://www.orchardhillchurch.comMobile App | https://https://www.orchardhillchurch.com/appYouTube | https://www.youtube.com/channel/OrchardHillChurchPAFacebook | https://www.facebook.com/orchardhillchurch/Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/orchardhillchurch/Twitter | https://twitter.com/orchard_hill

Rest has become something we feel like we have to justify. We wait until we hit a wall, crash, or burn out completely before giving ourselves permission to pause. But rest isn't a luxury. It's a necessity.In this episode, I'm opening up about my own dance with burnout, what it taught me about ignoring my inner signals, and how I finally started listening. I share how creating space for self-reflection completely transformed the way I relate to my body, mind, and spirit. We explore what it really looks like to integrate self-care into everyday life. This is not to just check off more items on your list, but to facilitate a deeply nourishing, intuitive daily practice. I also share simple, accessible grounding practices and tools from Ayurveda that support mental clarity, reconnect you with your body, and help you come back to your purpose.Inside this episode, you'll hear: ✨ How burnout is a real consequence of busyness ✨ Ways to weave in intentional rest even when life feels full ✨ Why self-care and slowing down are essential to your personal growth ✨ My favorite Ayurvedic practices for calming the nervous system ✨ How to rekindle your connection to joy, peace, and inner truthThis one's for the high-achievers, the nurturers, the do-it-all women who feel like they can't stop, but secretly want to.

“Learn to do good; seek justice, correct oppression; bring justice to the fatherless…” - Isaiah 1:17As believers, we're called to defend the powerless and stand up for those who can't stand for themselves. Right now, few places need that more than Lebanon, especially for its girls and young women. Today, Jack Hibbard is with us to share compelling stories of hope—and how you can be a part of this important mission. Jack Hibbard has been a passionate advocate for Heart for Lebanon for many years and previously served on the organization's board of directors.A Hidden Crisis for Girls in LebanonWhile global headlines often focus on Lebanon's war-torn landscape and economic collapse, an even deeper crisis is affecting the most vulnerable: young women and girls. Heart for Lebanon is responding to this crisis with bold, gospel-centered compassion, providing protection from human trafficking, early marriage, child labor, and violence.In refugee and impoverished communities, early marriage, domestic abuse, and forced labor are tragically common. One mother, now divorced with four children, shared how her own 14-year-old daughter was forced into marriage to escape abuse, only to find more of the same. In the midst of this pain, the light of the gospel is breaking through.Through Hope Centers, literacy programs, counseling, and discipleship, Heart for Lebanon offers girls a safe place to learn, heal, and flourish. They're helping young women understand who they are in Christ, not as tools or burdens, but as daughters of the King.One 5th-grade girl, forced to labor after school for just $20 a week, broke down in tears when a staff member shared her worth in Jesus' eyes. She had believed she only existed to serve others. But that day, she gave her life to Christ, choosing to walk in His light, despite the darkness around her.You Can Help Right NowWhen girls discover their God-given dignity and worth, it changes everything. The gospel doesn't just rescue—it prevents trafficking, early marriage, and abuse. It restores what the world has tried to steal.As believers, we have a chance to participate in this redemptive work. Every gift of $114 helps protect three at-risk girls from early marriage, child labor, and violence, while introducing them to the love of Jesus.When we loosen our grip on money, we loosen the grip of money on our hearts. Giving doesn't just bless others—it deepens our trust in God and draws us closer to Him.That's the vision behind our quarterly ministry partnership with organizations like Heart for Lebanon. Together, we're trusting God to help us reach 500 girls and young women in Lebanon with protection and hope.Join us in this life-saving mission.

Let's be faithful stewards together.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I'm 75 and have two retirement accounts I'm not sure what to do with. One is a TSP from my military retirement with just under $5,000. The other is a New York Life annuity worth about $50,000, but it's only earning 2%. Should I move it into an indexed annuity or keep taking the RMDs as is?My wife passed away just two weeks ago, and I'm overwhelmed. She handled our finances; I haven't paid a bill in 25 years. We tried reaching out to a Certified Kingdom Advisor before she passed, but didn't have much success. I don't have a budget, and honestly, I don't know where to begin. I need help.Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)Heart for LebanonWisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on Money (Pre-Order)Look At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA) or Certified Christian Financial Counselor (CertCFC)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions most days at (800) 525-7000.
