വൈശാലിയുടെ സ്വകാര്യഅഹങ്കാരം ആയിരുന്ന നർത്തകിയുടെ കഥ In this episode, we explore the inspiring life of Amrapali, the legendary dancer of ancient Vaishali. Found beneath a mango tree, she was lovingly adopted by the Licchavi tribes, who named her Amrapali—“the girl of the mango grove.”Gifted with extraordinary grace and beauty, Amrapali become the pride of Vaishali. The people adored her so deeply that they offered her a magnificent palace and a lush garden, where she enchanted thousands with her mesmerizing dance.But her life changed forever when King Bimbisara of Magadha attacked Vaishali. In the loneliness that followed, Amrapali met a young visitor who came to see her perform—unaware that he was the powerful King Bimbisara himself. Their brief meeting left a deep, unspoken mark on her heart.Yet Amrapali's true transformation began when she encountered Gautama Buddha, whose serene presence and teachings opened a new path before her. From a celebrated royal dancer, she became a devoted follower of the Buddha. The joy she once found in dancing was replaced by the deeper joy of giving, compassion, and spiritual awakening.In a final act of generosity, Amrapali gifted her entire palace and garden to the Buddha Sangha and embraced a new life as a revered Buddhist nun.This is the story of Amrapali—a woman who journeyed from fame to wisdom, from worldly beauty to spiritual brilliance.

I'm excited to host Karri J. Iverson on our podcast today. I met her in Ohio at a conference that we were both at when I was looking for a science curriculum for my kids. My twelve year old calls this the "fun science curriculum" which I love hearing him say!   themysteryofscience.com https://www.facebook.com/mysteryofsciencebooks   So far we have these subjects for 4-8 grades:   The Mystery of Science: Biology The Mystery of Science: Physics (at the printer)   With these to come:   The Mystery of Science: Chemistry (coming 2026) The Mystery of Science: Earth Science (coming 2026) The Mystery of Science: Astronomy The Mystery of Science: Health and Nutrition The Mystery of Science: Botany The Mystery of Science: Marine Science The Mystery of Science: Forensics   About the book: Simplify your science teaching with our engaging, biblical curriculum!   Developed by a busy, homeschooling mom and science teacher, this unique, open and go curriculum will simplify your lesson and prep time.  Written to emphasize creation, The Mystery of Science provides a solid, biblical foundation in God's intelligent design.  With bold, colorful pictures and lab activities designed to engage your students, they'll be excited to explore science! Karri J. Iverson has been a major influence on the lives of many children and families for more than 20 years. She graduated from Western Michigan University summa cum laude in elementary education with minors in science/math and English. She has used her diverse education as well as her husband's knowledge and help to homeschool their 5 children. In 1999 Karri recognized a growing need for homeschooled students to have further instruction in English and science, so she began a local homeschool tutorial. She taught classes in many subjects and managed several teachers as the group grew to meet the needs of local homeschoolers. Karri has also taught at other homeschool programs and co-ops and has enjoyed teaching Bible studies at her church. She has given direction and guidance to many parents during their homeschooling journeys and has privately tutored several students throughout their high school years. One of her passions is developing curriculum, which she has done for her own children, local homeschooling groups, the local school district's summer and extracurricular camps, and private schools. In addition, she has taught for the Summer Institute for the Gifted and has designed her own science and math curriculum for summer camps. In addition, Karri trains and encourages teachers and evaluates programs to make sure they meet scientific objectives. She also loves helping students learn about their awesome Creator!

Far more than just theory, this conversation becomes deeply personal as Morgan reveals how her own son's journey transformed her perspective on the uniqueness of how we learn . You will be invited to leave behind old methods that merely categorise pupils, moving towards empowering strategies of adaptive teaching .

Is our education system stifling creativity by sticking to labels and standardized solutions—or can we truly unleash the creative potential of every student and teacher? In this dynamic debrief episode of the Fueling Creativity in Education Podcast, hosts Dr. Matthew Warwood and Dr. Cindy Burnett reflect on three thought-provoking interviews covering the future of gifted education, repurposing technology for creative teaching, and preparing students for the future of work. They revisit Dr. Catherine Little's insights around needs-based approaches in gifted education, emphasizing the importance of individualized learning rather than labeling, and discuss how this philosophy could be applied from K-12 through university. The conversation also addresses the challenge of balancing student interests with exposure to diverse domains, questioning when and how schools should encourage specialization versus broad exploration. The hosts then pivot to their discussion with Dr. Punya Mishra about technology's evolving role in the classroom, highlighting the necessity for teacher creativity and agency when integrating new tools like AI, and noting the potential drawbacks of overly prescriptive tech solutions. Wrapping up with takeaways from Dr. Ronnie Reiter Palman, they delve into the nuances of creative problem solving in an AI-influenced world—exploring how AI often produces “middle of the road” ideas and how educators must coach students to develop and recognize genuinely creative solutions.

Guest Speaker, Pastor John Davis brings us a message about navigating the pressure that comes with living in purpose. Being gifted does not exempt anyone from experiencing deep fatigue, especially when carrying roles and responsibilities that God never designed to be carried alone. The journey requires adaptability and the willingness to lay down approval addiction, control, and the need to perform, trusting that God's strength is made perfect in weakness and that His grace is sufficient to sustain through every season.

What is it like to grow up sensing and seeing energy and spirits?  This week on The F.A.T.E. Podcast, I have returning guest Marzcia Techau, a spiritual teacher, healer, and psychic medium. She shares her extraordinary journey of how growing up with psychic gifts can be a confusing and challenging time.  From early childhood, Marzcia lived with an awareness far beyond the five senses. As a highly sensitive intuitive who felt more at home with animals, nature, and energy than with people, she grew up seeing spirits, feeling the emotions of others, and receiving premonitions long before she had the language to explain it.But Marzcia isn't just a medium with mystical experiences—she's also a research biologist with a deep foundation in the scientific method. Her lifelong journey has been a bridge between science and Spirit, exploring how energy interacts with plants, people, and the unseen dimensions that shape our lives.After formal psychic-mediumship training and years of studying energetic phenomena, Marzcia now teaches others to heal by connecting with Spirit, their ancestral lineage, and the multidimensional nature of the soul.Marzcia brings an interesting perspective that blends the principles of science with spiritual gifts that will illuminate you to the deeper nature of our existence. BUY HER BOOK:Your Soul, Your Life: A Guide to Healing and Self-Healing: Techau, Marzcia: 9781803416571: Amazon.com: Books******SUPPORT THE SHOW*** BUY MY BOOK****** BOOK BABY: - *Preferred method* Higher residual here.https://store.bookbaby.com/book/mr-pickles-and-maggie AMAZON: Mr. Pickles & Maggie: A "Tail" of True Friendship: Busby, Christy: 9781667811918: Amazon.com: Books https://a.co/d/bsLFPn6* *************LEAVE A RATING**** FOR THE SHOW******* Please leave a RATING or REVIEW (on your podcast listening platform) or Subscribe to my YouTube Channel.

In Gifted, Pastor Ernest unpacks how the Holy Spirit empowers every believer with spiritual gifts—not as trophies to admire but as tools to serve. From love, word, and power gifts, we learn that the point isn't to chase experiences but to become more like Jesus and build His church. The greatest gift is a Person: Jesus, who saves us, fills us with His Spirit, and sends us

You're not just a human having a spiritual experience; you're a spiritual being, created and gifted by God, living out His purpose right here and now. In this message, we'll discover how the Holy Spirit gives each of us spiritual gifts, not to impress others, but to bless the Church and bring Jesus' presence to the world.

The Holy Spirit doesn't just fill you so you can feel something — He fills you so you can do something. In this week's message, Pastor Randy unpacks what it means to live a gifted life — one empowered by the Spirit to go beyond natural limits, serve others, and make a difference for the Kingdom.If you've ever wondered how God wants to work through you, this message will help you discover, develop, and deploy the gifts the Holy Spirit has placed inside you.

Drawing from psychology's concept of “flow,” she relates it to ministry, emphasizing that leaders thrive when they serve from their true God-given design rather than forced roles. Dr. Banks-Butler highlights the importance of team dynamics, personality styles, and respecting diverse giftings, showing that effective ministry requires valuing each member's unique place in the body of Christ.Purchase The Christian Leader Blueprint book today: https://www.ryanfranklin.org/blueprintbookDownload The Christian Leader Blueprint – Short Guide (Free): https://www.ryanfranklin.org/blueprint Take the Christian Leader® Self-Assessment (Free):https://www.ryanfranklin.org/clselfassessment Learn more about Christian Leader® Community Coaching:https://www.ryanfranklin.org/communitycoaching YouTube and Audio Podcast: https://www.ryanfranklin.org/leaderpodcast Connect with Ryan: Email: info@ryanfranklin.org Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/rnfranklin/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rnfranklin/ Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rnfranklin/ Audio mastering by Apostolic Audio: https://www.apostolic-audio.com#leadership, #thoughtleadership, #ministry, #pastor, #pastors, #churches, #leadershiptraining, #churchleader, #churchleaders, #influence, #leadershipdevelopment, #coaching, #executivecoach, #leadershipcoaching, #productivitycoach, #productivity, #growthmindset, #theproductiveleader, #ChristianLeader, #ChristianLeadership, #LeadershipPodcast, #FaithAndBusiness, #PodcastInterview, #ChristianEntrepreneurship, #KingdomImpact, #PodcastInspiration, #LeadershipJourney, #PurposeDriven, #ChristianPodcast, #LeadershipEssentials, #LeadershipFundamentalsSend us a text

We had a good ole time discussing the future of intersectional neurodivergent advocacy, especially as it relates to race and gender. Janelle shared a POWERFUL personal story about her own self-diagnosis. Janelle shared about her critically important research and her vision for a future where neurodivergent leaders are prominent in various sectors, advocating for equity and representation. We also discussed the importance of self-reflections, especially as it relates to our own internalized ableism.
