Podcasts about from fear

This week's theme: Leverage In this episode of From Fear to Fire, Fabienne Fredrickson explores how women can leverage both inner wisdom and external support to grow successful businesses without burning out. She explains that many high-achieving women rely too heavily on masculine “push” energy such as constant striving and overworking, while neglecting feminine energy rooted in intuition and collaboration. Fabienne emphasizes that sustainable success comes from learning to leverage a balanced blend of both, allowing women to build businesses that align with their purpose and values. Fabienne also highlights the unconscious patterns that lead women to overgive, undercharge, and exhaust themselves. Her message is clear and practical: leverage delegation, leverage boundaries, and leverage action to move through fear. By shifting from a martyr mindset to a visionary identity, women can reclaim their time, lead with confidence, and create success that supports both their professional goals and personal well-being.

Our mortal path is determined by how we see God and see ourselves. This happens in three main stages. From Fear to Covenant to Love.

We all have something we want to change about ourselves. But whether it's quitting smoking, losing weight, or breaking some common bad habit, we feel a sense of failure when we don't succeed. This can often set off a cascade of negative feelings and discouragement, making it even harder to change. The voice in our head telling us: Why bother?In his profound book, How We Change: And Ten Reasons Why We Don't Sociologist, pioneering psychotherapist, and author Dr. Ross Ellenhorn Takes a deep dive into this all too familiar experience as he unpacks the psychology and science of changing our lives for the better. Which he argues depends far more on understanding why we don't change.His research sheds an important light on how we are wired to double down on the familiar. A phenomenon he calls - 'The Fear of Hope' -That very human and compassionate act of protecting ourselves from further disappointment. In today's conversation we'll dive deep into the topic of change as we,Challenge the popular paradigm(s) of quick fixes, and 5 and 7 step lists. And examine what actually works. Some of which includes:The power of a caring relationship, Contemplation,And learning to become a better friend to ourselves. Ross's pioneering work offers us all an invitation to consider a fundamentally different approach.One that may forever alter our perspective—and finally help us achieve the transformation we truly seekFor more on Ross, his events, books, and research please visit ellenhorn.comEnjoying the show?

This week's theme: Accessibility & Inclusion In this episode of From Fear to Fire, host Heather Hansen O'Neill speaks with disability advocate, educator, and author Jenna Udenberg about lived experience, leadership, and the true meaning of Accessibility and Inclusion. Jenna shares her journey as a lifelong wheelchair user and founder of the nonprofit Above and Beyond With U, emphasizing that accessibility is not about checking boxes or meeting minimum ADA requirements. Instead, it requires involving disabled people from the very beginning so spaces, systems, and decisions reflect real human needs rather than assumptions. Jenna also reframes disability as a neutral part of the human experience, explaining that barriers are most often created by environments and attitudes, not bodies. She encourages organizations and leaders to move beyond good intentions and take intentional action rooted in Accessibility and Inclusion across workplaces, education, and community spaces. Her message is clear: when people feel welcomed, safe, and valued, everyone benefits, and that awareness is what helps individuals and organizations truly move from fear to fire.

She has used a manual wheelchair since the age of 8 due to Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis.

What sets the most successful people apart? You may think that the answer is hard work (and it's certainly part of it), but in her interviews of the most accomplished individuals—from entrepreneurs and investors to Olympic athletes and Pulitzer Prize winners—Distinguished Professor of Management, Dr. Laura Huang discovered that what they called their gut feel, the product of their intuition, played the most important role.Laura, who has held faculty positions at Harvard Business School and the Wharton School has in many ways dedicated her research career to quantifying the ‘unquantifiable'. Her work shows that we all have intuition -  a combination of our brain's intelligent synthesis of external data and the entirety of our personal experiences. Our intuition draws from what we already know and what we didn't even realize we knew. This process culminates in a gut feel which can manifest as: A eureka moment, A Spidey sense, Or a jolt that changes how we see things and compels us to act.If you're like most people, these flashes of clarity arise passively.  Random occurrences that come out of the blue.And yet in her powerful new book: You Already Know: The Science of Mastering Your Intuition, Laura shares: "What makes our gut feel a superpower is our ability to go from the passive to the active.” That move, from passive to active, lies at the center of our conversation today. Together we'll explore:How we can strengthen our ability to hear the quiet whisper of our intuition,And be truer to ourselves and those moments of clarity when our head and our heart converge. Laura's words offer us all a timely reminder:"As the external world gets ever noisier, often, the smartest thing we can do is listen to our gut to guide us in the right direction. Trust Yourself. You already know."For more on Laura, her books, speaking, events, and research please visit proflaurahuang.comDid you find this episode inspiring?

What was meant to be a five-day trip to visit my daughter for her birthday in Thailand…turned into two very unforgettable weeks in foreign hospitals when Marley had yet another unexpected medical emergency. In this episode, Ryan and I share our experiences with Marley – from having the time of our lives on a tropical island with Marley, to the dreadful night it all went downhill and the hospitals became our hotel.Without giving it all away, I'll say this… God has a way of delivering incredible little gifts of light in hard and heavy circumstances. This trip was no exception. A thing that felt so scary to experience on the other side of the world turned into quite the experience full of bonding mother-daughter moments, inside jokes and laughter, and mind-blowing top-notch medical care from Bangkok.Bonus? If you ever want to REALLY get to know the person you are dating, have a family emergency 30 hours away that extends your trip while being stuck in a hospital room with them. Safe to say, Ryan passed with flying colors.In this episode, I share:Our entire medical experience in Thailand: hospitals visited, cost of care, insurance usedThe story behind it all – including how Marley is healingAll about our Thailand travels – Bangkok to Koh SamuiThe beautiful gifts of grace that we found along the waySome pretty sweet relationship lessons I'm learning from Ryan's kindnessWhy learning to let someone else lead changed everythingThe hidden strength that emerges when you're running on emptyIf this episode moved you, please like, comment, subscribe, and share.

This conversation is about more than bookkeeping—it's about creating freedom and flexibility in how your business grows. And before we dive in, I want to take a moment to invite you to something very special: The Entrepreneur Incubator. This is my four-month, done-with-you experience designed to help ambitious entrepreneurs get clarity on their brand, build a sustainable strategy, and—most importantly—implement it with accountability and focus. Inside the Incubator, we'll work together using tools like my Content Clarity Canvas and the Content Clarity GPT to build a tailored 12-week content plan that actually supports your business goals. You'll also get one-to-one coaching and monthly implementation check-ins so your strategy never just sits in a notebook—it comes alive in your business. If you're craving that structure and want to stop guessing about your next marketing move, schedule your free 30-minute consultation using the link in the show notes below. Let's talk about how the Entrepreneur Incubator can help you level up your business from the inside out. (00:00) What Fixed and Variable Costs Really Mean Let's start with the basics. Fixed costs are the expenses that stay steady no matter how much your business grows—think rent, software subscriptions, business insurance, or a salaried assistant. These are predictable, but they can also create pressure when sales slow down. On the flip side, variable costs shift with your business activity—things like shipping, payment processing fees, hourly contractors, and materials. When business is booming, these rise; when things slow down, they ease up. The balance between these two categories affects your cash flow, profitability, and even your confidence as a CEO. Fixed costs bring stability, but too many of them can make your business rigid. Variable costs bring flexibility, but too many can make your margins unpredictable.

In today's world, aging brings both wisdom and challenges—yet conversations about dementia are too often whispered in the shadows of fear and stigma. What if a single one-hour session could replace those whispers with confident, compassionate action? That's the promise of the Dementia Friends program: a global movement revolutionizing how communities support individuals living with dementia, and those who love them.On a recent Positive Aging Community podcast, host Steve Gurney spoke with Jennifer Hammer, Assistant Director of Dementia Friendly America at USAging, and Marty Williman, Program Director at the Ohio Council for Cognitive Health. Together, they described Dementia Friends as not just educational, but deeply human—designed to foster inclusion, reduce isolation, and demonstrate that living well with dementia is possible.A Global Movement Rooted in EmpathyDementia Friends isn't clinical; it's for everyone—neighbors, cashiers, librarians, even zoo staff. Launched in the US in 2016, the program is now part of a worldwide network across 50+ countries, aiming to change how we think, act, and speak about dementia. Under the umbrella of Dementia Friendly America and USAging, Dementia Friends works alongside the Dementia Friendly Communities initiative and Memory Cafe Alliance, each supporting those impacted by dementia. Williman noted, “We haven't found a community sector yet that couldn't use this information.” With most people with dementia living in their communities, not nursing homes, these programs help everyone play a part in creating supportive environments.Inside a Dementia Friends SessionSessions are casual, interactive, and welcoming—no prior knowledge required. Led by trained volunteers called Champions, each session covers basics: what dementia is, types, and risk factors. But the heart lies in five core messages—crowdsourced from people with dementia in the UK—that debunk myths with hope:Dementia isn't a normal part of aging; it's caused by brain disease.It's more than memory loss—judgment, communication, and decision-making are also affected.Living well with dementia is possible, grounded in adaptation, dignity, and respect.Capping off the hour are practical tips and an “action pledge.” Participants receive resources customized for their region. Williman shared that nearly everyone knows someone impacted by dementia, and that the networking these sessions spark is often life-changing.From Fear to Hope: Real StoriesThe program's impact is seen in how perceptions shift: Asked what words come to mind before and after a session, people move from “fear” and “regression” to “hope,” “respect,” and “fighter.” Williman recalled an attendee who decided to reconnect with a sibling living with dementia after years; others, like first responders and adult day staff, now embed Dementia Friends in orientation and ongoing training. Ohio's program is adapted for developmental disability communities, faith groups, and even those aging in incarcerated settings—underscoring its universal relevance.Looking Ahead: Dementia FriendsgivingMomentum for Dementia Friends is building. On November 18, 2025, Dementia Friendly America will host its free “Dementia Friendsgiving” event, with expert sessions, networking, and a keynote by acclaimed dementia educator Teepa Snow. Hosted by Gurney, it's a major national inflection point for inclusion and learning. Find details and registration at dfamerica.org.Why This MattersDementia touches people of all backgrounds—young, old, at book clubs or airports. Dementia Friends proves that awareness bridges stigma and empathy, empowering anyone to make a difference. Hammer summed up the impact: “This is the most positive job I've ever had.” Williman emphasized the ripple effect: change starts with one person, one action, one community.

In this episode of The Impostor Syndrome Files, we explore how flow states, those moments of effortless focus and peak performance, can help us reconnect with our true selves and quiet the inner critic. My guest this week is Tom Roberts, retired dentist, race car driver, Buddhist practitioner and author of the upcoming book From Fear to Flow.Together, we examine what it really means to be in a flow state and why it's more accessible than most people think. Tom shares his personal journey of discovering flow through racing and Buddhist practice, and how that journey helped him reframe impostor syndrome as a form of ego protection. We also talk about why flow isn't just for elite performers, it's our natural state, how our ego and old narratives block access to flow and creativity and what racing taught Tom about fear, failure, and finding his own lane.About My GuestTom Roberts is a retired dentist, race car driver, longtime Buddhist practitioner, and author of the upcoming book From Fear to Flow: Transcend the Ego and Discover the Life You Were Meant to Live.~Connect with Tom:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tom-roberts-flow/~Connect with Kim and The Impostor Syndrome Files:Join the free Impostor Syndrome Challenge:https://www.kimmeninger.com/challengeLearn more about the Leading Humans discussion group:https://www.kimmeninger.com/leadinghumansgroupJoin the Slack channel to learn from, connect with and support other professionals: https://forms.gle/Ts4Vg4Nx4HDnTVUC6Join the Facebook group:https://www.facebook.com/groups/leadinghumansSchedule time to speak with Kim Meninger directly about your questions/challenges: https://bookme.name/ExecCareer/strategy-sessionConnect on LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/kimmeninger/Website:https://kimmeninger.com

In this conversation, I talk with child behavior and adoption expert Bryan Post about how trauma, stress, and fear can shape the way our kids behave—and how we respond as parents. Bryan shares powerful insights about what's really going on beneath the surface when kids are acting out, especially in families with adopted or foster children. We dive into the difference between parenting from love versus fear, how oxytocin plays a role in connection and regulation, and what it takes to break out of reactive cycles and create a more peaceful, nurturing home.  About Bryan Post Bryan Post is a leading expert in child behavior, adoption trauma, and love-based parenting. A former foster child himself, Bryan has dedicated over two decades to helping families heal through connection, compassion, and regulation. He is the founder of Fear to Love, LLC, Bondify.ai, the Post Institute for Family-Centered Therapy, and the nonprofit Leaf Wraparound. His pioneering “Fear to Love Method” and the “Stress Model” empower parents to respond to challenging behaviors with understanding rather than fear or punishment. Bryan's approach blends neuroscience with timeless spiritual principles, particularly the teachings of Jesus, to address trauma and attachment disruptions in children. He has authored several influential books, including From Fear to Love, The Great Behavior Breakdown, and Parenting Softly, and co-authored the bestseller Beyond Consequences, Logic, and Control. Through media appearances, live seminars, online trainings, and digital platforms, Bryan has impacted thousands of adoptive, foster, and biological families worldwide. His AI-powered parenting app, Bondify.ai, offers real-time, trauma-informed support, making expert guidance accessible to parents everywhere. Bryan's central message is simple yet transformative: all behavior is communication, and true healing begins with love. Learn more at www.feartolove.com and www.bondify.ai. Things you'll learn from this episode  Why understanding trauma gives parents the insight needed to respond to behavior with empathy rather than punishment How stress and fear often drive challenging behaviors, especially in neurodivergent children Why love and emotional safety are essential ingredients for healing and building strong parent-child relationships How self-regulation and simple tools like breathing help parents stay grounded and co-regulate more effectively Why unexpressed grief in children can surface as disruptive behavior and needs compassionate attention How connection, oxytocin, and community support create the foundation for lasting change—even if you're starting late in the game Resources mentioned Bryan Post's Fear to Love website Bryan's YouTube Channel Bryan on LinkedIn Bryan on Instagram Fear to Love on Facebook The Emotional Brain: The Mysterious Underpinnings of Emotional Life by Joseph Ledoux Dr. Herbert Benson / Benson-Henry Institute Tiffany Field / The Touch Institute ACES (Adverse Childhood Experiences) Affect Regulation and the Origin of the Self by Allan Schore Self-Reg: How to Help Your Child (and You) Break the Stress Cycle and Successfully Engage with Life by Dr. Stuart Shanker Dr. Stuart Shanker on the Brain Science Behind Self-Regulation & the Impact of Stress (Tilt Parenting podcast) Learn more about your ad choices.

What if you could shift your child's behavior not with consequences, but with calm? What if the most powerful tool you have is love—biochemically speaking? In this eye-opening episode, Colleen O'Grady welcomes trauma and adoption expert Bryan Post to unpack the neuroscience behind stress and connection in parenting. Bryan explains how fear-based reactions (driven by cortisol) and love-based responses (driven by oxytocin) shape our children's behaviors—and our reactions to them. Drawing from his own story as an adoptee, Bryan introduces the concept of “stress-sensitive children,” emphasizing that behaviors we label as “bad” often stem from unhealed trauma and unconscious grief. Through vivid stories and science-backed insights, Bryan offers simple, powerful shifts moms can make—starting with breathing—to transform stress into connection. Bryan Post is one of the nation's leading experts on child behavior, trauma, and adoption. An adoptee and former foster child himself, Bryan founded Fear to Love LLC and developed the Fear to Love Method, a neuroscience-based, love-focused approach to parenting children with challenging behaviors. He's a therapist, speaker, and bestselling author of From Fear to Love and co-author of Beyond Consequences, Logic, and Control. He is also the creator of Bondify the first AI-powered trauma-informed parenting support app. All behavior arises from a state of stress. Underneath every meltdown or defiance is a nervous system overwhelmed by fear, often from unexpressed trauma or grief—sometimes passed down for generations. Oxytocin is the antidote to cortisol. Just as stress creates fear-driven behaviors, connection creates calm. Nurturing relationships, not consequences, help regulate the brain. Breathe first. Respond second. When parents slow down and breathe, they can shift their vibration from fear to love. That energy change alone can stop a four-year tantrum cycle in its tracks.

Evolving Leadership in a Tech-Driven Region In this episode, Michael chats with Mohamed—an Egyptian leader based in Saudi Arabia with a wealth of experience across the Middle East and Europe. The conversation explores the region's tech-fueled transformation and how it's reshaping business and leadership. With a young, dynamic population and a high-growth environment, the demand for leadership coaching is on the rise. Mohamed shared that leaders are realizing that information alone doesn't drive transformation—coaching does. Michael added that resilient leadership thrives in spaces where people feel empowered to adapt and grow, especially in today's fast-changing world. Coaching as a Catalyst for Leadership Growth Michael and Mohamed dive into why coaching is no longer optional—it's essential. Michael emphasized the power of being coachable and how reaching out to mentors can elevate a leader's impact. Mohamed echoed this, noting that one of the biggest hurdles in leadership development is working with individuals unwilling to learn. Together, they highlighted how coaching unlocks personal clarity and drives sustainable leadership growth—though not everyone is ready to embrace the process. From Fear to the Front of the Room: A Nurse's Speaking Breakthrough Michael shared an inspiring story of a nurse educator he once hired who struggled with public speaking. With encouragement and support, she stepped out of her comfort zone, pursued speaking opportunities, and eventually landed a leadership role in the healthcare system. The takeaway? When we identify and support the unique passions of our team, we unlock potential that transforms careers—and organizations. The Human Side of AI in Leadership AI may be changing how we work, but as Michael and Mohamed discussed, it can't replace the human elements of leadership—empathy, coaching, and connection. Mohamed shared thoughtful insights on the evolving role of AI in the workplace and the need for leaders to remain adaptable. Michael noted that while AI can supercharge productivity and creativity, the true essence of leadership will always be rooted in relationships. Global Impact: Mercer's Role in Leadership Development The episode wraps with a look at the global work Mohamed is doing with Mercer, helping shape the next generation of leaders through innovative coaching and development programs. He encourages listeners to connect with him on LinkedIn for more on Mercer's approach to building resilient, future-ready leaders around the world.   Mohamed Hamza is a renowned authority on leadership assessment and development.

In this episode of The Self-Employed Life, I had the great  pleasure of speaking with the author of the forthcoming book From Fear to Flow: Transcending the Ego and Living the Life You Were Meant to Live, Tom Roberts. Tom uses his experience on the racetrack and in dentistry to  challenge the conventional view of flow as simply a performance tool and instead presents it as a natural, authentic state of being that emerges when we learn to quiet the ego. We explore how flow mirrors deep meditative states, why the ego is often the biggest obstacle to our growth, and how to move through the four stages of flow without burning out. Our conversation offers insights that will resonate with anyone who is ready to rediscover the power and freedom already within.

“Well-being is a stronger metric of success than productivity when it comes to AI adoption—and a natural outcome of that well-being is more productivity.” — Paul Sephton, Global Head of Brand Communications, Jabra In this enlightening episode of Technology Reseller News, Publisher Doug Green interviews Paul Sephton, Global Head of Brand Communications at Jabra, about a new study conducted in partnership with the Happiness Research Institute. The report reveals a compelling insight: workers who use AI at work report higher well-being and job satisfaction. Why does this matter to Jabra? As Sephton explains, Jabra's mission goes beyond engineering headsets and video solutions—it's about optimizing the modern work experience. And as AI changes the nature of work, Jabra believes that cultural shifts, not just technical upgrades, will define whether AI enhances productivity and happiness. Key findings and themes from the podcast include: AI + Happiness: While not conclusive causation, there's a clear correlation between AI use and improved workplace well-being. Those who use AI more often tend to report higher satisfaction and purpose in their roles. From Fear to Optimism: The study shows a positive turn in sentiment. As AI becomes more ubiquitous and embedded in the day-to-day, optimism is rising—especially when organizations communicate transparently about their AI strategies. People-to-Machine Communication: Jabra is preparing for a future where not just people talk to people, but where we interact directly with AI agents. Enabling seamless communication between humans and AI will be essential—and Jabra aims to be at the center of that evolution. Well-Being as Strategy: Sephton urges leaders to treat employee well-being as a core indicator of successful change management. Transparency, experimentation, and culture are critical levers for embracing AI meaningfully. Jabra's Role: From professional audio and video collaboration gear to AI-optimized meeting room solutions, Jabra is developing the “eyes and ears” for enterprise AI—ensuring communication systems evolve as work itself transforms.

What happens when your business fails, your spouse is diagnosed with cancer, and everything you've built feels like it's slipping away?In this powerful conversation, we sit down with longtime friend and marketplace leader Scott Boyd. Scott shares his journey from early faith and career struggles to encountering the transformative message of grace through deep suffering and loss. After nearly losing his business and walking with his late wife through cancer twice, Scott discovered a new way of living—not through performance, but through trusting God with his identity, work, and pain.From memorizing Galatians on hiking trails to watching his business grow from $5M to $150M, Scott's story is a compelling picture of what happens when we shift from striving to freedom. He opens up about the fears that keep us from trusting grace, the beauty of deep friendship, and how transformation shows up as deeper love for others.Whether you're a ministry leader, entrepreneur, or just someone longing for more, this conversation will reframe how you see God, yourself, and your work.Key Takeaways:Grace in Practice: True transformation begins when we trust that sanctification—like justification—is by faith, not effort.From Fear to Freedom: When we stop striving to “be enough,” we begin to experience love, freedom, and relational health.Workplace as Worship: A grace-filled approach to leadership leads to healthier teams and surprising success—in Scott's case, scaling his business tenfold.Transformation Evidence: Love increases, judgment decreases, and others begin to notice—we become more patient, joyful, and free.Healing in Community: Sharing our struggles in safe relationships, like Scott's 21-year men's group, fosters deep emotional and spiritual healing.Enduring Loss with Faith: After losing his wife Bev, Scott modeled trusting God through grief—and later found new life and love again.Support the show

My focus today is on how to take tiny, manageable steps through our fears, allowing us to turn anxiety into confidence. Recognizing how anxiety can often introduce new fears in our lives, I discuss the common triggers that many of us experience, whether it's the anxiety of flying, public speaking, or even simply being in crowded spaces. These moments can provoke an immediate physical response, leaving us feeling vulnerable and uncomfortable.However, I propose a powerful reframe: these fears, rather than being obstacles, can serve as gateways to deeper confidence and inner peace. By gently facing and befriending our triggers, we begin to cultivate a strength that can ultimately help us tackle more profound anxieties, such as feelings of inadequacy or fear of rejection. The essence of this process lies in taking those initial small steps—steps that foster self-kindness and acknowledge the importance of gentleness in our healing journey.I outline three foundational steps to approach our fears, starting with creating proximity without pressure. Using the example of a fear of flying, I encourage listeners to take small, non-threatening actions, like just driving to the airport or sitting in the parking lot observing planes. This method emphasizes building a safe relationship with our fears, recognizing them without judgment, and allowing ourselves the freedom to retreat if needed. The next step involves gradually increasing our exposure by taking more active roles in confronting our fears, ensuring we're in a space where we can feel comfortable and safe while doing so.#anxiety #fear #confidence #tinysteps #healinganxiety #selfcompassion #courage #innerpeace #mentalhealth #anxietycoach #anxietyrelief #fearfacing #confidencebuilding #smallvictories #nervoussystemsupport #selfkindnessjourney #anxietytips #lovesmotivation #progressnotperfection #mentalhealthjourney #anxietyhelp #phobiasnomore #emotionalresilience #gradualexposuretherapy #mindfulanxiety #innerstrengthbuilding #selfsoothingtechniques #breakthecycle #connectionoverfear #imperfectaction #neurologicalrewiring #emotionalwellbeing #GinaRyan #ACP #Anxietycoachespodcast Learn more about your ad choices.
