Podcasts about following your heart

What if the secret isn't chasing the next trend... but following what lights you up? Inspired by a simple note from the Vancouver International Publishing Conference, this episode explores the powerful reminder that passion sets trends—don't chase them- let passion guide you. In a world that constantly encourages people to keep up with what's popular, this conversation invites listeners to slow down and reconnect with what genuinely excites and inspires them. Whether creating a business, writing a book, offering a service, or simply living more authentically, passion carries an energy that can't be manufactured or copied. Candace reflects on letting go of grand expectations of what success is supposed to look like and instead trusting the quiet guidance of the heart. When creativity flows from authenticity rather than comparison, it naturally creates something meaningful—and often becomes the very thing that inspires others. This episode is a gentle reminder that passion isn't something to chase. It's something to trust. And when it's allowed to lead, it has a beautiful way of creating its own path. If you've been waiting for permission to stop following trends and start following your heart, perhaps this is the sign you've been looking for.

Danger of Following your Heart Pastor Hansen tells us the danger of following your heart

Most of us have felt it — that quiet nudge toward something more. A calling that keeps showing up no matter how many times we push it aside. But then reality kicks in. Bills, responsibilities, family, security. And suddenly following your heart starts to feel like a luxury you can't afford.In this episode we explore one of the most common tensions people face — how to honor what you're truly called to do without neglecting the life you've already built. We break down the difference between following your feelings and following your heart, how to recognize your real calling when it shows up, and why being fiscally responsible and following your purpose are not mutually exclusive.We also explore two very different ways of waking up every morning — and which one is actually the more responsible choice in the long run.If you've ever felt trapped between your dreams and your obligations, this episode will give you a new way to see both.Send us a text message. We'd love to hear from you!

What if the real issue isn't what your eyes see or your heart wants—but what you choose to do with it when no one is watching?

“Follow your heart” sounds inspiring—but Proverbs 3:5–6 offers a better path: trust God over your own understanding. Scripture reminds us that the human heart can be unreliable (Jeremiah 17:9), often shaped by emotion, culture, or pride rather than truth. Real clarity comes not from looking inward, but from surrendering fully to the Lord and allowing Him to direct your steps. God doesn’t just redirect our paths—He reshapes our desires. As we stay rooted in His Word, He aligns our hearts with His will, replacing confusion with conviction. Instead of chasing what feels right in the moment, we’re invited to follow the One who sees the full picture and leads with perfect wisdom. Highlights “Follow your heart” is cultural advice, not biblical direction The heart can be deceptive and influenced by emotion or pride True guidance comes from trusting God, not personal understanding God transforms our desires as we seek and obey Him Scripture renews our minds and anchors our decisions in truth Following God leads to clarity, purpose, and alignment with His will Obedience often requires surrendering plans we once held tightly Have an idea for our newsletter?

Full Transcript Below: Forsaking Following Your Heart By: Emily Rose Massey Bible Reading: “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[a] your paths” (Proverbs 3:5-6 NKJV). Shortly after college graduation, I became a born-again believer in Jesus Christ; I repented of my sin and surrendered my life to Christ, committing to take up my cross and follow Him no matter the cost. Yet I still wanted to pursue my original plan to become an actress in Los Angeles. As a Christian, I believed I was called to be a light in a dark place, so I was supposed to use my talents for Christ in Hollywood. I was receiving mixed messages from trusted believers because they kept telling me to trust God with the plans to pursue my dreams. This just led to more confusion. Trust God with my plan and my heart’s desires? Again and again, the phrase “follow your heart” was echoing through my mind. This phrase seems to be very popular in American culture, even among Christian circles. You can find these three words boldly displayed on T-shirts, on Instagram graphics, and even heralded by some influential professing Christian leaders. “Follow your heart…” - just a harmless motto, right? It sounds really encouraging, doesn’t it? Yes, very encouraging, almost Disney-like, but definitely not Biblical! The Lord spoke these words about the heart through the prophet Jeremiah: “The heart is deceitful above all things, And desperately wicked; Who can know it?” (Jeremiah 17:9 NKJV) As Christians, sometimes we fall into the trap of giving man’s words more weight than the Word of God. I wanted to encourage us to look to the direction found in scripture for those who are God’s children. A very familiar, but powerful passage found in Proverbs gives the believer wisdom: “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[a] your paths” (Proverbs 3:5-6 NKJV). Intersecting Faith & Life: If we put our trust in anything or anyone but the Lord, we will constantly be disappointed and led astray from God’s perfect will for our lives. We must trust in the Lord with all of our heart, which should never be filled with more of this world than God’s Word. I’m so thankful that during that time in my life, while I was faced with a major decision, I kept my heart full of God’s Word, which helped me renew my mind so that I was filled with faith to trust God when He began changing my desires to follow and obey Him most of all. One month after I decided not to move to Los Angeles, realizing that pride was actually driving my desire to pursue an acting career, I was introduced to my now-husband, and the rest is His Story. My advice to you, beloved one, is do not follow your heart- follow God instead. He knows what you need more than you do. Trust Him with your entire heart and let him mold it to look more like His. He will never lead you down the wrong path! The culture around us often loudly proclaims how important it is for us to pursue our dreams and destiny by listening to our hearts and following them. But God’s word is very clear: our hearts can often bring confusion, and the only One we can trust to follow is the Lord. If you are born again, God has given you a new heart in Christ, yes, but your flesh is always at war with God’s desires and longs to lead you away from God’s will. We find God’s will in His Word, so we must ask the Lord to help us have a hunger to hide it in our hearts so that we will not sin against Him. God’s word is what renews our minds so that we are able to walk in obedience and look more like Christ to the world, so that they may know that His ways and thoughts are higher and better than man’s. The Lord can help us not to lean upon our own understanding and trust Him above all, not our hearts’ desires. Let us be diligent to ask the Lord to mold our hearts to more closely resemble Jesus.

Seasons of comfort and success can quietly become the moments when our hearts are most vulnerable. In this message from 2 Samuel 11, we follow David's journey from a rooftop to ruin and see how an unguarded heart led to lingering temptation, growing desire, and ultimately destructive sin. This sermon reminds us that following our hearts apart from God's truth leads to spiritual and relational devastation. Scripture warns that the heart is deceitful, and only by guarding it diligently can we avoid the progression of sin.

In our What Is Our Lineage, Actually? | Tradition vs. Innovation lecture, we started an inquiry into lineage, responsibility and accountability by taking into consideration all the subtleties and nuances of our tradition, from a historical and somewhat academic perspective. I offer a few stories from various sampradāyas (traditions) to show how multifaceted all of this can be to drive home the complexity of the Ramakrishna lineage and the ideals which we, across different interpretations, stand for. All of that was part of my own personal reflection on how to responsibly share my enthusiasm and delight about this tradition, which is a delicate balancing act between honoring my own instincts, inspirations and interpretations with what we call ekavākyatā (lineage consistency). In this talk, which acts as a sequel of sorts, I take a much more personal approach and using a reflection on svadhārma as per the Bhagavad-gītā, I articulate some of my most cherished ideas about being yourself & following your heart, as an expression of svatantrya, the innate playfulness of Reality. However, while I do just want to say what is in my heart to say, I also offer a few methods of accountability and means for calling me out on anything and everything!For whom my ramblings have not been helpful and appropriate, I apologize sincerely and pray you'll find the traditions, interpretations and practices that do. Naturally, you will because Hinduism is nothing if not maximally diverse and inclusive! For those who my ramblings have been somewhat interesting at least, I am deeply grateful for your support and indebted for your kindness, patience & understanding. On this sacred first day of Navaratri and Ugadi, the New Year, I offer you this from my heart to yours! namah śīvāyah.Support the showLectures happen live every Monday at 7pm PST and again at Friday 11am PST Use this link and I will see you there:https://www.zoom.us/j/7028380815For more videos, guided meditations and instruction and for access to our lecture library, visit me at:https://www.patreon.com/yogawithnishTo get in on the discussion and access various spiritual materials, join our Discord here: https://discord.gg/U8zKP8yMrM

“I saw my father do it. So I have a better understanding on how to do it, how to serve, how to lead." - Barry FarmerWhat happens when a decorated US Army veteran walks away from 23 years of service? Barry Farmer didn't slow down—he discovered his true calling. After raising seven children and adopting three more, Barry threw himself into Jacksonville's nonprofit world, joining three boards and becoming a Human Rights Commissioner. But burnout led him to the Appalachian Trail. "When you feel useless, become useful to somebody," a hostel owner told him. That wisdom transformed everything. Barry's parents never preached servant leadership—they lived it. Now he's weaving a community fabric where isolated threads become something stronger together. His message? More than average isn't about salary. It's about heart. Barry Farmer, trail name "Ambassador," is a retired US Army veteran with 23 years of honorable service, including completing Army Ranger School as one of three African Americans in his graduating class. After retiring as a major in 2021, Barry threw himself into Jacksonville community service, joining three nonprofit boards and serving as a Human Rights Commissioner (2022-2024). He completed Leadership Jacksonville Cohort 2024 and served as President of Phi Beta Sigma Fraternity's Jacksonville chapter. A father to seven children and three adopted nieces/nephews, Barry completed the Appalachian Trail thru-hike in 2025, summiting on September 11th. About The Show:The Life in Transition, hosted by Art Blanchford focuses on making the most of the changes we're given every week.

My father, Hans-Georg Graf von Rittberg, was born on March 27, 1943, on his family's estate in Pomerania during World War II. In early 1945, his mother, Karin Gräfin von Rittberg, eight months pregnant, fled with her two sons ahead of the Russian occupation. Her husband was executed in April 1945 for his involvement in the resistance against Hitler.By the fall of 1945, they were finally able to reach Western Germany, escaping Russian-controlled territory. In our conversation, my father recalls his earliest memories in Königsbach, where they lived above a horse stall. Winters were brutally cold, and to keep her sons from freezing at night, his mother would bind their hands so they would keep them tucked under the blankets.What I find most striking are the tender memories my father carries from such a devastating time — playing in the woods, building makeshift bridges, learning to navigate the world with curiosity and imagination. He speaks about growing up in post-war Germany with a mother who, despite having lost almost everything, always found ways to create a good life from what they had.As he grew older, his central ambition became rebuilding what had been lost, and one day offering his own family the life he had always dreamed of. Had my father not received a Fulbright scholarship to study in New York — where he met my mother — I would not be here today.Their life together has been one great adventure, and I feel deeply grateful and proud to be part of it.

Kamal shares how losing everything in a startup collapse led him to write a simple vow that became his international bestseller Love Yourself Like Your Life Depends On It—and why self-love is actually a high-performance operating system for successful entrepreneurs. They unpack imposter syndrome, the emotional reality of failure (no matter the scale), what Elon Musk taught Kamal about removing negative people, how to use social media without letting it own your mind, and why the real leverage in life and business is your state of consciousness.

In this episode, we're talking about having the courage and faith to start following your heart in a society that tells us to "fall in line" to become something that others view as valuable. When we chase money, trophies, or achievements from a place of "not enough", or do things in the world we were told we have to do to be successful, we create an endless pit of suffering as we get the things and realize that it doesn't fulfill us on a soul level.  Today, we're encouraging you to step out of that paradigm, and shift your "why" away from the results, and instead focus on enjoying the process of becoming. As you live your life from that place, taking one action step at a time, you can begin to feel fulfillment from the inside, while still achieving the same results in the world.  Only this time, your value won't come from the thing, it will come from witnessing yourself become someone you're truly proud of - someone who moves through the world giving your gifts freely and needing nothing in return.    1:1 Mindset & Performance Mentorship Calls: If you would like to book a session to move forward in the area discussed in this show or any other areas of your life, visit link below for further resources or booking schedule  https://hoo.be/patmahan   CONNECT WITH ME ON: Facebook https://www.facebook.com/likeattractslike11 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/patmahan_ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTRDc1pT4/

In this powerful sermon, Pastor Clay NeSmith continues the "Things That Jesus Never Said" series by addressing one of culture's most popular pieces of advice: "Just follow your heart." Drawing from Jeremiah 17 and Jesus' prayer in the Garden of Gethsemane, Pastor Clay reveals why our hearts can deceive us and lead us astray, and instead calls us to follow Jesus who can transform our hearts.Whether you're facing difficult decisions, feeling emotionally overwhelmed, or struggling to know God's will for your life, this message offers biblical wisdom for finding true direction and lasting joy that doesn't depend on your circumstances.

Following your heart is one of the most destructive philosophies of our time. I lived this way for years and it shattered my life beyond recognition.My journey from emotional chaos to stability wasn't easy. This approach left me constantly depleted, chasing fleeting pleasures while my life crumbled around me.In this video I share the system that finally helped me escape the emptiness.

In this episode of the Creative Genius podcast, I interview Rebe Huntman about her debut memoir, "My Mother in Havana, a memoir of magic and miracle." Rebe shares her personal story of losing her mother at a young age and the subsequent decades of feeling disconnected from her memory. Driven by a deep longing and intuition, Rebe embarked on a 30-day DIY pilgrimage to Cuba to seek a different perspective on grief and connection. The conversation delves into how Rebe's background as a Latin dancer led her to discover the spiritual roots of Cuban dances and the traditions of honoring the deceased.  Rebe recounts her experiences immersing herself in rituals dedicated to the goddess Oshun, visiting the sanctuary of Cuba's patron saint, and meeting with a spiritist who she hoped would connect her with her mother.Rebe and I discuss the importance of intuition and following one's unique path, even when it doesn't seem logical. We also explore the disconnect in Western culture from ancestral connections, magic, and meaningful rituals, contrasting it with the Cuban traditions of keeping the dead close.The conversation touches on the challenges of staying creative and connected to one's inner voice in the face of overwhelming global issues and personal fears. Rebe shares her belief in creativity as a portal and emphasizes the importance of honouring inner longings and choosing to champion humanity. She also shares her personal rituals for grounding and connecting with her intuition and ancestors, offering practical advice for listeners seeking to do the same. Ultimately, Rebe's story is a powerful reminder of the resilience of the human spirit, the wisdom of intuition, and the potential for magic and miracle in our lives, even in the darkest of times.  

Join Wendy in Charante Maritime August 23rd-30th, 2025. Get all the details here!Jessica Hickman-Woolcott didn't have a grand plan when she moved from the UK to France—just a feeling that it was the right move. She fell in love with a centuries-old château, took a leap without knowing exactly how it would all work out, and along the way, opened the Cognac Jewellery School on her property. In this episode, she and Wendy talk about what happens when you trust your instincts, throw logic out the window, and say yes to something that excites you—even if it doesn't make perfect sense on paper. They also dive into the slower, more intentional way of life in Charante Maritime and what it feels like to truly settle into the present moment. Plus, Jessica shares a sneak peek into the hands-on jewelry-making experience she'll be leading as part of Wendy's hosted trip to France this August—an opportunity for anyone ready to say yes to adventure. If you've ever felt the pull to shake things up and follow your heart, this conversation is the reminder that you don't need a perfect roadmap—just the courage to take the first step.About Jessica:Jessica has over ten years experience designing, making, and teaching Jewellry and Silversmithing, using traditional and modern techniques. She learned her craft at the Kingham Jewellery School in Oxfordshire, England, and then at the historic Guild of Handicraft in Chipping Campden. With four years of dedicated training, Jessica honed a wide variety of metal-working skills creating both intricate jewellery and large-scale silverware, including designing and creating commissions for prominent figures. Her journey led her back to the Kinghham Jewellery School as a tutor, where she taught and shared her silversmithing skills while simultaneously launching her own award-winning jewellery brand. Now living in the heart of the Cognac Region of France at the Château de Puyguiller, Jessica continues to share her knowledge and creativity as the founder of the Cognac Jewellery School, established in 2022. Connect with Jessica:On Instagram @cognac_jewellery_schoolOn FacebookOn YouTubeCognacJewellerySchool.com________________________________________________________________________________________ Say YES to joining Wendy for her: Say YES Sisterhood PWH Farm StaysPWH Curated France TripsInstagram: @phineaswrighthouseFacebook: Phineas Wright HouseWebsite: Phineas Wright HousePodcast Production By Resonant Collective Want to start your own podcast?

"Follow your heart." We hear this saying often, don't we? But is this wise advice? Sure, these three words can inspire us to pursue our dreams and to carry out what we feel called to do. Yet, they can also take us to places that aren't God's best for us. Today we are uncovering why this popular mantra can lead us astray and what we can do instead to live a purposeful, God-centered life. We will learn exactly why following your heart isn't biblical, nor is it the best way to live. Join encourager, Julie Lefebure, each Tuesday morning as she offers real encouragement for your real life right now through a fresh, hope-filled perspective, a lighthearted inspiration, and Biblical insight, all in about 15 minutes (guest shows are longer).

Earlier this month, I had the privilege of speaking at a Masterclass hosted by my dear friend Simon Paine, co-founder of the Rebel Business School. Simon is a Clarity Coach and a successful entrepreneur in his own right, and it's always a pleasure to speak with his community. One of the highlights of the session was a live coaching demo I did with Evie, who shared her struggles with imposter syndrome and her dream of stepping into her full potential. What unfolded was one of those transformative conversations that cuts through noise and gets to the heart of what really holds us back - and what's possible when we trust the wisdom within. In this week's podcast episode, you'll discover: Why imposter syndrome is nothing more than a case of mistaken identity - and how to see past it. The truth about fear and courage How to uncover the path life is calling you to take (the one your heart already knows), even when your head doubts it. After our session, Evie sent me a heartfelt email about her experience. With her permission, here's what she shared: Hi Jamie ​I just wanted to drop a personal thank you for yesterday's Master Transformational Impact session via Rebel Business School. ​Whilst I found the whole session to be inspirational, the one on one section did exactly as it said on the tin. I've awoken today with a released sense of clarity and purpose. So much of what you spoke about resonated deeply with me, and our conversation cracked open something inside that I've been working on for a number of years.  It felt as though in that held space I finally felt my heart take over from the negativity in my brain. It was powerful. ​So, thank you again. I am truly grateful for our conversation yesterday. ​Warmest wishes ​Evie Jones This episode is a chance to reconnect with your own inner wisdom and say yes to what life is calling you to create.

Can you even believe that just fifty years ago, a woman needed a man to cosign on a business loan or open a checking account? Women weathered so many wars, famine, and poverty back in the day.

Jen and her longtime friend, Amy Hardin, return together to introduce this previous interview with Jennifer Garner that was one of For the Love's top downloaded episodes of all time. Jen and Amy chat about their favorite Jennifer Garner projects and how impressed they are with her activism and philanthropic work. In the interview itself, Jennifer Garner shares how she navigates life as a mom, an entrepreneur, and an actress. So many of us have followed Jen's career through TV & film, but she takes us back to the early days when she fell in love with theater, doing auditions in New York while she slept on the floor of a friend's home who offered a place to lay her head. We also find out that her first job was working with Melissa Gilbert (Laura Ingalls of Little House on the Prairie fame) and how that eventually led to working with J.J. Abrams in Felicity, who then cast her in her breakout role as the star of Alias. The two Jens discuss everything from what it's like to raise kids as they transition from littles to bigs and what eventually drove Jen's pursuits outside of Hollywood to co-found Once Upon a Farm and become involved with Save the Children.  * * * Thought-Provoking Quotes: “Change is hard. I mean, I have a tendency to, or I did when I was younger, where I leapt into living in New York before I thought about living in New York. And then I leapt into moving to LA, and then had to absorb that, wait a minute, I just left this all. That was a big transition for me, because I didn't realize I had built a community for myself in New York.” - Jennifer Garner     “I hunted down what organization was really doing work in rural America and Save the Children was all over the world. Our whole global goal is to help kids where no one wants to go and where no one's helping them. So we are in Afghanistan, we're always in the middle of the Ebola crisis, we're always in the middle of helping kids as they're leaving Syria. And we're in those refugee camps and we're in disasters, and we are hand in hand with the Red Cross, and just one of the leading organizations helping kids in the whole world. And in the US, the work is so beautiful. And it's almost unknown, because we're in the little tucked away corners.” - Jennifer Garner   “I think food insecurity and poverty in America, it's a little bit invisible, because we want it to be. We choose what we look at. And so, it is, in some ways, easier to look across the globe and see it somewhere else in a country that is so different than ours or with such obvious distinctions. But the food insecurity in America is high, high, high.” - Jen Hatmaker  “You know what I love? I love any community. I just like to be in a community.” - Jennifer Garner   “What is saving my life right now? I mean, I can't imagine it ever being anything other than girlfriends.” - Jennifer Garner  Resources Mentioned in This Episode: Once Upon a Farm - https://onceuponafarmorganics.com/pages/jens-farm Save the Children - https://bit.ly/4dnOuHM 13 Going on 30 - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0337563/ The Last Thing He Told Me - https://bit.ly/4d9wEbK Love, Simon - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt5164432/ Guest's Links: Jennifer's Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/jennifer.garner/?hl=en Jennifer's Twitter - https://twitter.com/thejengarner?lang=en Jennifer's Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/JenniferGarner/ Connect with Jen!

In this inspiring episode of The Light Watkins Show, Light engages in a deep and revealing conversation with Laura Del Valle and her daughter, Angelica, the visionaries behind Mar de Jade, a unique retreat center in Nayarit, Mexico. Laura's journey began in the bustling streets of Mexico City, where she shifted from acting to medicine, driven by a desire to serve the rural poor. Despite her family's concerns about her unconventional path, Laura's commitment to her purpose led her to establish a medical clinic in a remote beach town, which eventually evolved into the thriving retreat center known as Mar de Jade.Angelica, growing up in this environment of service and simplicity, brings her own perspectives on integrating community, sustainability, and education into the retreat's ethos.
