“So, when you're speaking to somebody, hear them before, hear them during, [and] hear them after. And earn the right to have the conversation. It's like you're just always hearing them and you're always double-checking yourself, and that's when we were just talking about a few minutes ago. If you're speaking to somebody and you've uncovered something, and it's like, hey, is this still real? Is this still relevant? Do I understand this and or you correctly? Do I have it right? [Then] they feel heard, and then it becomes that collective conversation. Like you were saying, I just want to know what's going on, and we're always talking to somebody.” – John Duffin This episode is the second half of my conversation with executive coach, podcast host, and DuffinMedia voice talent John Duffin as we discuss how leaders can better communicate with their teams, the challenge of balancing legal concerns and genuine empathy in the business world, and the uses John's found for AI tools like Claude and ChatGPT when it comes to content.As always, if you have questions for my guest, you're welcome to reach out through the links in the show notes.

Put your bullet points away, put your PowerPoint slides down for a moment, and look at people.” He talks about delivering bad news in an empathetic way and overcoming the common habit of assuming the worst.“I'm terrible at this,” he notes. “As a human, I don't mean boss, leader, comedian, as a human, I make up all kinds of scenarios. Very few of them are good unless I'm reading my own affirmations.”(0:06:45) - Effective Communication in Difficult ConversationsJohn addresses the obstacles that business concerns can pose to expressing empathy, and how he works with clients to balance legal liabilities and genuine communication. “They are taught from a company perspective, don't say too much,” he explains. “Don't say too much. Here's your talking points. You know, look sad when you say this and don't say what. If they ask a question, don't answer it.” He offers an example of a straightforward, if disappointing, conversation early in his career that struck just the right note. “She was like, ‘Hey John, you were great. I wasn't able to select you for this position, I am going to be going with [someone else]. I think that's all she said, and it was plenty.”(0:17:13) - The Art of Authentic CommunicationOur discussion comes to a close as he tells us what he's working on now, including a new online course he's developed and a wide variety of upcoming speaking roles. “My next speaking engagement, that'll be several hundred people, and I've spoken in front of one, you know,” he says. “Are there technical nuances between the two? Yes, but the heart of it remains the same.” He adds his thoughts on the most important aspect of communication: “I've got a whole series of techniques that I've created and that I keep working on. And, folks, the easiest way to say it is...

Heath Lambert addresses a question from a youth minister about how to guide young Christians seeking "closure" after relationships end. Discover how to recognize what people are really asking for beneath this vague term, and respond with biblical wisdom.TIMESTAMPS:0:00 Introduction and this week's topic on relationship closure0:35 Context: Youth minister's question about teenage breakups1:37 The problem with "closure" as a vague, undefined term2:35 How to help someone seeking closure: Ask questions and apply Scripture3:32 Category #1: Closure when mistreatment has occurred4:40 Biblical perspective: Reconciliation, not just "closure"5:50 Category #2: Desiring to recover a relationship or understand rejection6:52 The painful reality of unrequited feelings8:41 Finding security in God's love (Ephesians 1:7-8) rather than human approval10:02 Category #3: Confusion about the relationship seeking clarityKEY POINTS:- "Closure" is an ill-defined term that means different things to different people- When someone seeks closure, ask specific questions to understand what they're really seeking- Three common categories of what people mean by "closure":1. Mistreatment that needs addressing - When sin has occurred in the relationship- Biblical category: Reconciliation through confession and forgiveness- May be complicated by circumstances (especially if dangerous behavior occurred)2.Unreciprocated affection - When one person likes the other more- Reality: We must learn to respond maturely to rejection- No amount of "closure conversations" can change someone's feelings- Growth comes through finding security in God's lavish love (Ephesians 1:7-8)3. Genuine confusion seeking clarity - Understanding what happened- May be legitimate or may mask the desire for reconciliation- Can be appropriate when seeking growth-oriented feedback- Must approach with others-centered love, not selfish motivesSubmit your questions for future episodes to markedbyGrace@fbcjax.comSCRIPTURE REFERENCES:Ephesians 1:7-8 - "In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace, which he lavished upon us, in all wisdom and insight."

This is PART 1 of my interview with Tom Esch, a renowned expert in workplace dynamics and conflict resolution.

We'll dive into how leadership skills, emotional intelligence, and conscious communication can transform workplace culture, prevent costly mistakes, and drive organizational performance. Whether you're a business owner, manager, or aspiring leader, this conversation offers invaluable insights into creating more effective, human-centered workplaces.

He emphasizes the importance of leaders being skilled in people management to avoid hurting businesses. Esch shares an example of coaching a CFO who nearly lost a $20 million job due to poor behavior, leading to improved office dynamics. He highlights the impact of rank and power on workplace dynamics, citing a 41% increase in comfort levels and a 50% rise in crucial conversations among trained Foremen. Esch also addresses the challenges of dealing with toxic bosses and the importance of genuine apologies and self-awareness in leadership.
Genuine spiritual healers are rare. Likewise, the process for finding and vetting them is also arduous, uncertain, and time-consuming, usually without positive results given the prevalence of charlatans and “wolves in sheep's clothing” (Matthew 7:15) who are eager to provide their services for a good buck. This is why it is more practical and beneficial to become one's own healer, doctor, and master, since it is not only difficult to find uncorrupted traditions and practitioners with proven track records, but that real divine healers are not to be found primarily in the physical world, but in the internal worlds. Likewise, by awakening consciousness in the inner dimensions we inhabit during the normal hours of sleep, we also have more direct means of accessing and knowing the source of legitimate healing, which does not come at any price except a life of virtue and sacrifice for humanity. Discover and apply verifiable, reliable, and effective techniques from the Gnostic tradition of Samael Aun Weor to treat the spiritual causes of illness, thereby transforming oneself into a true Gnostic priest, magician, shaman, or healer.

To live in hope that is genuine, we need nothing more than what we already have in Christ.Thursday • 5/15/2025 •Week of 4 Easter This morning's Scriptures are: Psalm 50; Daniel 8:1–27; Colossians 2:8–23; Luke 6:39–49 This morning's Canticles are: before the Psalm reading, Pascha Nostrum (“Christ Our Passover,” BCP, p. 83); following the OT reading, Canticle 8 (“The Song of Moses,” Exodus 15, BCP, p. 85); following the Epistle reading, Canticle 19 (“The Song of the Redeemed,” Revelation 15:3–4, BCP, p. 94)
Even when change is greatly desired, it is not easily accomplished. This episode of Living Myth considers the problem of resistance to change from psychological and mythological viewpoints. While we are facing radical changes that threaten both nature and culture, we are also challenged by the dilemma of human resistance to change at both personal and collective levels. The issue is not simply a lack of commitment to change. Rather, resistance arises precisely where we have the best intentions to change. The problem becomes all the more difficult as we may not be aware of our resistance because it occurs at an unconscious level. Attempts to meaningfully change can feel like an internal struggle between opposing parts of ourselves; one part that overtly wants change and another part that covertly works against it. What some psychologists call an internal “competing commitment” or a subconscious “immunity to change” was once known as the fatal flaw that leads us away from our soul's natural goal of transformation and spiritual realization. In terms of mythic imagination, each soul has an original intention waiting to be found and a life dream waiting to awaken. And each soul also has its fatal flaw, a kind of reverse attitude that works against that original intention. Genuine transformation develops from the inside out. Thus, when change becomes essential, not just for ourselves, but also for life on earth, we are called to awaken to the true aims of our authentic selves as well as to the fatal flaws that work against meaningful change, both personally and collectively.

Today, Jared Ross of eCarrierCheck is back on the show to give more valuable insights on how freight brokers can stand out and build a successful book of business in the market!

Genuine relationships remain critical for small/mid-sized brokerages despite technology. Operational excellence and understanding shipper pain points are vital for strong partnerships. Niche Market Targeting: Brokers should dominate niche or secondary markets instead of just major cities. Preparedness before cold calls (company research, qualifying questions) boosts effectiveness, with persistence essential for reaching decision-makers. Value-Driven Approach: Transition from commodity-based to value-driven conversations helps brokers stand out. Providing real-time market intelligence (spot vs. contract rates) builds trust with shippers and strengthens expertise.

Send us a messageAs the Prophetic Word of God reaches a crescendo in this last hour in the earth, the Holy Spirit is about a Sacred work of Separation: Truth from falsehood – the Genuine from the counterfeit – and the Wheat from the tares. And as the Global Empire of the Antichrist pushes forward to its last stages of completion, the “One World Religion” is leading the charge, with Roman Catholicism playing a vital role as it draws every other false way into its ecumenical web of deception. In this video series, we uncover the roots of this Babylonian counterfeit to genuine Christianity with the desperate plea to “Come Out of Her!” while there is still time to do so. The Holy Spirit will show the way to the One Who alone is the WAY, and the TRUTH, and the LIFE – Yeshua Hamashiach – Jesus the true Messiah!Support the showVisit our website: https://agapelightministries.com/

Hi, I'm John Sorensen, President of Evangelism Explosion International, and you're listening to Share Life Today. In a culture that combats finding what is true and what's a lie, people now more than ever are looking for genuine, authentic relationships. They want to hear the truth. When it comes to sharing our testimonies, it's important to remember to be genuine and vulnerable when telling others our story. God may have you sharing with a Divine Appointment—a person that He has drawn to you to hear your story for a purpose. It could be the very same struggles or hurts that you've faced they're facing now. It could be the very things God has redeemed in your life they're dealing with in their own life. So make sure to ask the Holy Spirit to guide your conversation about what you should share, and be open and truthful with what God has done in your life. Not sure how to share your testimony? Well, visit whatsmystory.org to use our free online testimony builder. You can learn more at our website sharelife.today.

Self-Hatred ≠ Humility: Unmask Your True WorthEver notice those overpowered anime characters? Take Jin Woo from Solo Leveling. He starts out weak and becomes a total boss, yet he often still doubts himself.A lot of people think that's humility, but it's not. True humility isn't about thinking you're less; it's about being secure enough to think of yourself less and focus on others.I'm David Maxwell from thrivingman.com, where we help you conquer the chaos and build a truly thriving life.Today, we're tackling a common trap: mistaking self-hatred for humility. We'll unpack C.S. Lewis's powerful quote: "Humility is not thinking less of yourself, but thinking of yourself less." So many of us get this wrong, constantly putting ourselves down, thinking that's what we're supposed to do. But this mindset hurts us and hinders our growth. Let's dive into how this plays out and how to naturally break free.The Mask Problem: Remember Jim Carrey in "The Mask"? Slapping on a persona because he didn't know how to be his authentic self? A lot of guys today struggle with this, wearing a "mask" to pretend or play a part because they're insecure. I saw this in myself after I found God, trying to cover up my insecurities by acting "humble," constantly putting myself down. It didn't work! It held me back. We've got to be careful we're not hiding behind a mask, preventing ourselves from learning how to be genuinely authentic in our worldview.The Gravity Issue: We often see ourselves as the sun in our own solar system, with everything revolving around "me." But while we're not the center of the universe, we're definitely not the trash of the universe either! We tend to go all-or-nothing: either we're the most important person, or we're worthless. This self-hatred doesn't benefit us or our relationships.The Focus Shift: The key to true humility isn't dwelling on your perceived shortcomings; it's intentionally shifting your focus outward, towards serving and helping others. Think about walking into an event and your first thought being, "Who can I help feel comfortable here?" Genuine care and service is the core of humility. But be warned: serving to "network" or get ahead is just another form of pride. We want to authentically serve because it's a natural expression of humility. Interestingly, it's often in serving others that we discover and develop our gifts.True humility is being secure enough to take the spotlight off yourself.Check your Masks: Are you hiding behind a persona?Check your Universe: Does everything revolve around you?Work on Shifting Your Focus: Intentionally look for ways to serve and help others.For more help on living a thriving life, head over to www.thrivingman.com.

We had the pleasure of interviewing Christian Hayes over Zoom video!Capitol Records recording artist Christian Hayes has poetically drawn on his life experiences growing up in the foothills of Appalachia since his grandfather gifted him his first journal at seven years old. While his debut EP Last I Love You, released in September, followed Hayes' journey navigating heartbreak and growing up, he's now offering an upbeat new song underscoring the beauty of finding love in imperfection with “Wildflower,” available now.Self-written by Hayes, the concept for “Wildflower” was born from Hayes' observation of seeing beauty found in imperfections and embracing uniqueness in love. Recalling how wildflowers are each unique and grow to their own accord, Hayes drew from this inspiration to celebrate the qualities that make them distinctly beautiful.“I had family members who I watched struggle a lot with discontent growing up, always striving to find that perfect spouse, rather than being happy with the one they were with,” Hayes reflects. “This song was inspired by that inner conflict, but rather than always striving for perfection where it doesn't exist, the ‘wildflower' serves as a metaphor to finding a person who's right for you, while embracing the beauty in their imperfections.”The song comes on the heels of the September release of Last I Love You, which casts a wide net, fusing Americana and folk while bouncing between campfire ballads, cinematic soundscapes and raw, rowdy barn-burners. At the center of that sound is Hayes himself: a wise-beyond-his-years musician who knows he can't move forward without taking a look at his past.Genuine and articulate, Hayes comes from a long line of storytellers that includes his Grandpa Jack – a poet by profession – who gave Christian his first journal. Born and raised in the foothills of Appalachia, Hayes began playing guitar at age eight. After high school, he enlisted in the U.S. Navy Reserve and attended the University of Alabama.Hayes recently signed with Capitol Records, as well as with William Morris Endeavor (WME) for booking, Universal Music Publishing Group (UMPG) for publishing, Wildrose Projects for management and Flood Bumstead McCready & McCarthy (FBMM) for business management.About Christian HayesRaised in the Appalachian foothills of northern Georgia, Christian Hayes grew up surrounded by southern storytelling. His grandfather — a poet by profession — encouraged him to begin writing in a journal at 7 years old, sparking a habit that would eventually take Hayes to Nashville. A veteran of the US Navy Reserve, Hayes began applying the discipline of his military training to his work as a songwriter, amassing more than 900 original songs by his mid-twenties. Five of those songs appear on Last I Love You, his debut for Capitol Records available now. Produced by Lukas Bracewell and steeped in Hayes' unique version of American roots music, Last I Love You features the viral single “LILY” (which racked up more than 3 million streams before the EP's official release), the anthemic “Black Gold” and a mix of effortless melodies, cinematic folk and rowdy, barn-burning Americana.We want to hear from you!

"Respect isn't earned from self-sacrifice. It is learned through self-respect." Genuine respect - both from yourself and others - begins with honoring your own worth first. Respect yourself first; everything else is attracted to that strength. CHALLENGE: "What is one small choice I can make today -- when no one else is watching -- that strengthens the evidence of my self-respect?"
