Podcasts about gifted

In this week's episode of the podcast, the conversation focused on the critical role of home environment and systems in supporting executive function—especially for neurodivergent families. It's not about Pinterest-perfect organization, but about designing spaces and routines that work with your brain, not against it. Key Takeaways Design Over Discipline: Many executive function challenges are solved through smart environment design, not just motivation or checklists. Moving decisions from the brain into the environment can reduce overwhelm and increase independence. Zones Make Life Easier: Creating dedicated zones—like reading nooks, creative spaces, launch zones near exits, and recharge corners—helps reduce cognitive load and makes daily transitions smoother. Visible, Forgiving Systems Win: The discussion explored the power of visual cues (checklists, labels, color coding) over constant verbal reminders. Systems should be simple, obvious, and evolve as your family's needs change.

Gifted to Serve: Gifts of Evangelism - Matt 13:1-23 - Deacon Casey Solgos by

Every parent in the stands can spot the "gifted" 13-year-old. He's bigger, faster, stronger than everyone. Here's what the research actually says: that kid is usually NOT the one who makes it.In this episode we dig into the science of biological maturation in young athletes and why the youth sports system keeps measuring the wrong thing. We cover a study that tracked academy players from age 13 to their pro careers 14 years later, why late bloomers reach the top at higher rates, and the hidden injury cost of being the physically dominant kid, almost 3x the injury burden.If your kid is the smaller one, a step behind physically, this is the episode that explains why he's not behind at all, and what actually matters in that window.

God still does the impossible! This week in Gifted, we'll explore the Power Gifts, special faith, healing, and miracles, and discover that God doesn't reveal His power just to amaze people, but to lead them to Jesus. Join us as we learn how God can work through ordinary people to make an extraordinary impact for His Kingdom.

This episode is sponsored by TeachHoops.com, where you get direct access to veteran coaches who have faced every tough locker room situation you can imagine — real mentorship, one question away. Today we examine a painful case study every coach recognizes: the loaded roster that never comes together. Talent doesn't guarantee wins, and the missing ingredient is almost always trust — between players, between players and coaches, and between the team and the plan. We break trust down into coachable components. You'll learn how to build vulnerability-based trust through structured team activities, how your own consistency as a coach either deposits or withdraws from the trust account, and why role clarity is the fastest trust-builder there is. We also cover the moment most coaches miss: how you respond to a player's mistake in a big game tells the whole roster whether your words about trust are real. Trust isn't a poster on a wall; it's a system of daily behaviors you can install starting tomorrow. This episode gives you the blueprint.

From massive life changes to big money gifts, this week's dilemmas are proof that even good things can still keep you up at night

We live in a world that celebrates gifting — if you can sing, speak, or post, you get a platform. But almost nobody claps for discipline. In week 4 of Letters to Timothy, Pastor Josh Canizaro unpacks Paul's charge to "train yourself to be godly" (1 Timothy 4): why character is built in private while gifting gets the applause, why growth requires intentional training, and why your gift can take you somewhere your character isn't prepared to keep you.In this message:Growth requires intentional training — you don't drift into godliness, you drift into distractionYour life preaches louder than your wordsDon't let insecurity shrink your callingScripture: 1 Timothy 4:7-8, 1 Timothy 4:12, 1 Timothy 4:14-16, Matthew 5:16Message notes: onehopechurch.com/media/message/dont-just-be-gifted-be-godlyOne Hope Church is a life-giving church in New Orleans, LA.Plan a visit: onehopechurch.com/visitGive: onehopechurch.com/givingWatch this message on YouTube: youtube.com/@onehopenolaNew episodes every week.

Send us Fan MailEpisode 269Few figures capture both the excitement and the cost of the 1960s quite like the young musician at the heart of this story. Gifted, inventive, and endlessly drawn to new sounds, he helped lay the foundations for a band that would redefine rock and roll. Yet while the music grew louder and the crowds grew larger, his place within that world became increasingly uncertain. In just a few remarkable years, admiration turned to pressure, success to struggle, and extraordinary promise to enduring tragedy. More than half a century later, his influence remains unmistakable, while the circumstances of his final days continue to invite debate. This is a life of remarkable creativity, dazzling highs, and one of rock music's most enduring mysteries.Support the showInsta@justpassingthroughpodcastContact:justpassingthroughpodcast@gmail.com

Gifted to Serve: The Gift of Vocation - Ex 3:1-15 - Father Matt Woodley by

Message from Rev. Dr. Martin Smith entitled "Spiritually Gifted Teamwork." For more information, visit sntandrews.org. © St. Andrew's Presbyterian Church.

This thought-provoking message by Pastor Paul Chapman challenges us to examine the spiritual gifts sitting dormant in our lives—like unopened presents gathering dust in a closet. Drawing from 1 Peter 4:7-10, we're reminded that in dark times when persecution surrounded early Christians, God didn't just tell them to survive—He called them to serve one another with supernatural abilities. The passage reveals that every believer receives spiritual gifts at salvation, purchased with Christ's blood and wrapped by the Holy Spirit's hands. These aren't natural talents or rewards for maturity, but grace gifts that enable us to do eternal work. The message explores the practical gifts listed in Romans 12—prophecy, ministry, teaching, exhortation, ruling, mercy, and giving—showing how each believer has been uniquely equipped to strengthen the body of Christ. What transforms this from mere theory to life-changing truth is the recognition that when we operate in our giftings, our lives gain profound purpose and meaning. We stop merely making a living and start making a difference. The beauty of God's design is that our strengths cover others' weaknesses, and their strengths cover ours. When we embrace our differences and use our gifts to serve one another with fervent love, we become exponentially more powerful together than we ever could be alone.

After studying more than 25,000 brains over the past twenty-five years, Dr. Andrew Hill has developed a revolutionary way of understanding neurodiversity—not through diagnosis, but through the unique patterns that make each of us both gifted and challenged.His new book, Gifted & Tortured, introduces the concept of the Poet Brain—a framework that helps explain why the same neurological patterns responsible for creativity, empathy, innovation and extraordinary perception can also become the source of anxiety, overwhelm, ADHD, autism traits and emotional suffering.Rather than asking "What's wrong with me?", Andrew invites us to ask a different question:"How is my brain uniquely wired?"Andrew explains the twelve "brain characters" that appear throughout his new book—including the Happy Little Kid, the Grumpy Old Man, the CEO, the Lifeguard and the Princess & the Pea—and shows how each represents both a profound gift and a potential source of suffering depending on how well that particular brain circuit is regulated.Rather than reducing people to diagnostic labels, Gifted & Tortured presents twelve "Poet Brain Phenotypes"—distinct brain patterns that simultaneously explain our greatest strengths and our deepest struggles.The book combines neuroscience, neurofeedback, meditation, sleep science and practical interventions to help readers move from shame to understanding, from suffering to self-mastery, and from merely coping to genuinely flourishing.At its core, the message is beautifully simple:You were never broken. You simply never received the owner's manual.Connect with Dr. Andrew HillWebsite: https://www.andrewhillphd.com/Peak Brain Institute: https://peakbraininstitute.com/Gifted & Tortured: https://giftedandtortured.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/andrewhillphd/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrewhillphd/Connect with Always Better Than YesterdayWebsite https://abty.co.uk/Instagram https://www.instagram.com/alwaysbetterthanyesterdayuk/LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/company/abty/Coaching https://abty.co.uk/coachingMailing List https://abty.co.uk/contactpodcast@abty.co.ukEpisode Chapters00:00 – Introduction01:46 – Why Andrew wrote Gifted & Tortured04:52 – What is a brain phenotype?08:38 – Why understanding removes shame11:20 – "You were never broken."14:10 – Andrew's own ADHD journey16:05 – Why every phenotype includes practical interventions17:06 – The 12 Poet Brain Phenotypes explained20:52 – Discovering your unique brain profile23:05 – Why diagnosis shouldn't become identity27:15 – Understanding leads to acceptance28:05 – Neuroplasticity: your brain can change29:45 – Ryan's procrastination story32:08 – The neuroscience of procrastination34:55 – Emotional amplification & rejection sensitivity36:25 – Relationships through the lens of neuroscience38:28 – Stress, threat and the survival brain40:42 – Living gifted rather than tortured43:40 – Andrew's daily practices for brain optimisation47:15 – Final reflections

Achievement, intelligence, and success are often celebrated as the ultimate markers of a life well-lived. But what happens when reaching every milestone still leaves you feeling empty, exhausted, or disconnected from yourself? In this episode, Dr. Dan sits down with author, business executive, and former gifted child Eric Jessen to explore the hidden challenges that can accompany early success.  Drawing from his own life experiences and the insights behind his books The Curse of Early Success and Formerly Gifted, Eric shares how achievement became identity, why perfectionism can become a trap, and what it takes to build a healthier relationship with success, failure, and self-worth. Together, they discuss giftedness, resilience, vulnerability, contentment, and the courage required to step off the treadmill of constant achievement. This episode is an invitation for anyone who has ever felt defined by performance, burdened by expectations, or wondered why success alone wasn't enough. In this episode: How gifted children often develop identities rooted in achievement Why success can become both a blessing and a burden The relationship between perfectionism, fear of failure, and self-worth How vulnerability creates deeper connection and personal growth The difference between accomplishment and fulfillment Why contentment may be a more meaningful goal than constant success Practical ways to redefine identity beyond performance and achievement Key Takeaways Success is a powerful teacher, but it can also create limiting beliefs about who we are. Achievement becomes exhausting when it becomes the foundation of identity. Failure is information—not a verdict on your worth. Emotional intelligence and vulnerability are critical skills for meaningful relationships and leadership. True fulfillment comes from embracing who you are, not constantly proving what you can do.

Most gifted people live in their minds so much of the time that they aren't always aware of what they truly need. In Episode 2 of the 3-part Food Noise series, Someone Gets Me, host Dianne A. Allen helps us understand why gifted adults often experience overwhelm, food noise, and challenges with self-regulation. She explores why external success doesn't always create inner peace, why developing internal authority over our beliefs matters, and how a gifted person's deep longing for connection can sometimes lead to existential loneliness. Watch this episode of Someone Gets Me to gain a deeper understanding of the hidden needs beneath food noise and how greater self-awareness can support regulation, connection, and wellbeing.

12 Pastoral Anniversary for Pastor Dr. Christopher Betner Sr. and First Lady Dr. April Betner6/28 Sunday SermonSermon Text: Ephesians 4:1-16

Gordon Smith is a therapist, coach, and creative instructor who has spent over 26 years working with gifted and neurodivergent adolescents and adults. Gordon came to centre giftedness in his practice after pulling out seven years of client notes and realising the people he had done his best work with all had one thing in common: they were intensely, unusually bright. That discovery sent him into his own gifted reckoning.We talk about what giftedness actually looks like when you pull it out of the narrow frame of IQ scores and school performance, and what happens to people who grow up intense, complex, and sensitive in environments that have no idea what to do with them.What we covered:What giftedness means beyond IQ, and why Gordon uses "intense, complex, and sensitive" instead of a fixed definitionGifted trauma as attachment wounding: chronic misattunement, rejection, and a self-concept built from other people's discomfort with youThe body keeping score: chronic illness, autoimmune conditions, IBS, nervous system hypervigilance, and why COVID was the last straw for manyWhy "underachievement" is better understood as other achievement, and Gordon's own story of deliberately cultivating mediocrity to protect his freedomFamily roles gifted people get stuck in: the over-functioner, the helper, the parentified child, the high achiever, the outcastThe loneliness where everyone thinks you are thriving and nobody actually knows youPerfectionism, guilt, shame, and the internalised belief that your productivity is your worthWhy conventional therapy keeps falling short for gifted clients, and what neurodivergent-affirming practice actually looks likeGordon's Gifted Adults Group Experience: co-created, non-scripted, iterative, and built around what participants bringThe nervous system shift when gifted people feel genuinely mirrored for the first timeWhat it costs gifted men to be tender, sensual, and creative in a culture that only permits anger and achievementImprov, play, and flow state writing as paths to growth through the creative rather than the purely intellectualGiftedness as heritable and traceable through family systems, often along the maternal line, and why you should look beyond your parents to aunts, uncles, cousins, and grandparentsEggshell Therapy and Coaching: eggshelltherapy.com/Imi Lo:  imiloimilo.comSister Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC3Zcl8ZUsu4AePugDoWtXcgFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/eggshelltransformationsNewsletters: https://eepurl.com/bykHRzDisclaimers: https://www.eggshelltherapy.com/disclaimers  Trigger Warning: This episode may cover sensitive topics including but not limited to suicide, abuse, violence, severe mental illnesses, relationship challenges, sex, drugs, alcohol addiction, psychedelics, and the use of plant medicines.

Send us Fan MailCrivens! We're tackling the first installment of the Tiffany Aching series, The Wee Free Men by Terry Pratchett. Tiffany is a pragmatic and precocious 9-year-old witch, whose brother has been taken by the Queen of the Fairies. She must rely on the help of tiny blue men, the Nac Mac Feegles, to navigate Fairyland to get him back. Gifted by First Sight and Second Thoughts, Tiffany uses her wit and compassion as she journeys into a world unknown to her. Full of wonder, heart and bravery, The Wee Free Men is a wonderful entryway into fantasy for any young (or old) reader! In this episode, we hear Hannah's deep connection to Pratchett and his Discworld series, you find out our Nac Mac Feegle names and we talk wax poetic about Pratchett's ability to write a full-fleshed female character (the bar may be a little low for male authors). We hope our fondness for the book and the main character, Tiffany, comes through in our discussion. These Books Made Me is a podcast about the literary heroines who shaped us and is a product of the Prince George's County Memorial Library System podcast network.

Mark Steiner built GigSalad (www.gigsalad.com/blog/meet-the-ceo-of-gigsalad) from zero to booking millions of events. But the real story isn't the  hustle. It's what he saw his omnipotential underneath the noise of a mind that just works differently. And most importantly how Mark found peace inside chaos, why "hard" is just thought, and the mindset shift that made business easier.

Paul encouraged the Christians in Corinth by writing, "There are different kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit. There are different kinds of service, but the same Lord. There are different kinds of working, but the same God works all of them in all men. Now to each one the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common good." (1 Corinthians 12:4-7) In this series, we will be exploring how each of us are gifted to serve in God's kingdom. We will reflect on spiritual gifts. How do spiritual gifts enable us to join in the work of the Holy Spirit in the world? Guided by the two motifs: Prophet, Priest, and King and the 5-Fold Ministry Paul details in his letter to the Ephesians, we are invited to consider what spiritual gifts we identify with and how those gifts influence the way we join with the Spirit's kingdom work in the world today. This week, Rebecca Moss invites to consider Ephesians 4:7-16 and the ways in whch God gives us as gifts to one another.

In this week's episode of the podcast, Colleen gets honest about what it's really like to homeschool multiple neurotypes at once—and how you can stop trying to make one-size-fits-all solutions work for wildly different brains. She talks about building flexible rhythms that respect your children's unique needs (and your sanity!), why chasing the "perfect" curriculum isn't the answer, and practical ways you can manage energy instead of just managing lesson plans. Key Takeaways Ditch One-Size-Fits-All: Stop trying to teach every child the same way—build flexible rhythms that honor each brain's unique needs. Focus on Energy, Not Just Curriculum: Prioritize managing everyone's energy and support needs over finding the "perfect" curriculum. Rotate, Station, Solo: Structure your day with rotating support, creative stations, and independent solo work to keep kids engaged and supported. Fair Isn't Equal: Remember that fairness means giving each child what they need, not making everything the same for everyone. Adapt as You Go: Stay flexible—needs change daily and seasonally, so keep mixing, matching, and pulling from your toolbox of strategies Links and Resources from Today's Episode Thank you to our sponsors: CTC Math – Flexible, affordable math for the whole family!

What if overthinking is not a flaw? What if it is just your gifted brain doing exactly what it was built to do? In this episode of Someone Gets Me, Dianne A. Allen reframes the words we have been using against ourselves for years. She gets honest about what really happens when gifted and neurodivergent people suppress how their minds work, breaks down the real causes of overwhelm, and offers a grounded, compassionate path toward channeling a powerful brain instead of apologizing for it. If you have ever felt like your mind was too much, this episode is going to change how you see that.

Paul encouraged the Christians in Corinth by writing, "There are different kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit. There are different kinds of service, but the same Lord. There are different kinds of working, but the same God works all of them in all men. Now to each one the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common good." (1 Corinthians 12:4-7) In this series, we will be exploring how each of us are gifted to serve in God's kingdom. We will reflect on spiritual gifts. How do spiritual gifts enable us to join in the work of the Holy Spirit in the world? Guided by the two motifs: Prophet, Priest, and King and the 5-Fold Ministry Paul details in his letter to the Ephesians, we are invited to consider what spiritual gifts we identify with and how those gifts influence the way we join with the Spirit's kingdom work in the world today. This week, Casey Tygrett guides us through Paul's words about unity and spiritual gifts to the Church in Rome.

Tyler Anbinder examines the remarkable industrial success of Phelan and Collender, who mass-produced high-quality billiard tables. Their innovation in table cushions led to a dominant market position, and they famously gifted a custom gold-ornamented table to Ulysses S. Grant. Their massive factory on 10th Avenue symbolized the pinnacle of Irishentrepreneurial achievement. Anbinder concludes by debunking the myth that the famine Irish were permanently stuck in poverty. His research reveals they were a highly ambitious and determined group who successfully utilized networking and grit to climb the socioeconomic ladder in the United States. (8)1861 CHURCH STREET
