Why is that?- How do you (or would you like to) show loyalty to your friends?- Why does trust between friends usually build gradually? What helps it grow? (Hint: What helps you know you can trust a friend?)- If a friend chooses to work with someone else on a school project or plays with someone else at recess, does that mean they are not a loyal friend? Why or why not?- Do you think of yourself as big or little? Why?*** You might also like these podcast episodes: Ep. 79: Is your friend a fake friend?

He worked in the K9 unit for much of his career, and became one of the state's most effective operators.

God is a good giver. Our Father is the ultimate example of The One who gives and gives and gives. All of creation was breathed into existence with such precision so as to create the exact environment that we need to even exist. And so life itself is a precious gift. The air He made to fill the lungs He designed. The water that sustains. The food that nourishes. All gifts given by our God who is a really good giver. God also gives Good. The things He gives are only Good. Creation. Salvation. His Church. Hope. Second chances. Peace. Love. Purpose. People. In fact, the only things He withholds from us are things we would all consider really bad – His wrath and judgment and justice and punishment. And even in those things, and because He is such a good giver of Good things, He made a way around all of the things we truly deserve and He has given us the Goodness of His Son for our salvation. He gives Good. The challenge, though, comes when we turn the good gifts into little g gods. We mismanage and misuse and abuse our time. We tend to worship the people who are really good at what they do. We are drawn to idolize stuff – homes, cars, clothes, jobs, comfort, toys – and the dollar bills that provide them for us. We are tempted to trivialize relationships and exploit them for our benefit, turning people into a product. These goods have been misused, abused, and damaged by so many for so long. But what if we didn't? What if we did it differently?What if we held the good gifts our good God has given us loosely? With wide open hands and a heart that chooses to worship our good God WITH the good gifts He's given us?What if we began to realize that God doesn't so much want things FROM us as much as He wants things FOR us? God desires His good gifts to be used for the good of those who love Him and are called according to His purpose. And it should start here.

This is a lesson I taught back in 2012.    What I've learned is if you want to have great friends, you have to be a good friend.    You have to make it all about the good friends.    I've watched Ed Mylett and he skillfully makes every conversation about the people even if they're complimenting him.    He gets it.    If you want people to like you, make it about them.    Make sure you like people's posts.    If I'm going to have a big social circle, I have to be engaged with a lot of people.    I have a lot of people jockeying for their attention.    But I still vie for their attention because I still want to be their friend.    I'm not talking about paying their bills.    They're the ones asking how the kids and wife are doing.    They're the ones checking in to see how things are going.    That's what makes a good friend.    Be a great friend if you want to have good friends both online and off!      About the ReWire Podcast   The ReWire Podcast with Ryan Stewman – Dive into powerful insights as Ryan Stewman, the HardCore Closer, breaks down mental barriers and shares actionable steps to rewire your thoughts.

In today's episode of The Heart & Hustle Podcast, we welcome back the powerhouse herself — Toni Collier! If you've ever felt like you're too broken, too betrayed, or too worn down to keep going, this conversation will remind you that you're not alone. Toni opens up about one of the hardest seasons of her life and how it inspired her brand-new book, “Don't Try This Alone”. (Link Below). She shares raw, personal stories of heartbreak, healing, and the power of leaning on others when you want to hide. From building a “confessional community” that became her lifeline, to learning how to be brave enough to send a single vulnerable text, Toni reminds us that healing doesn't mean living pain-free — it means increasing your capacity to hold pain while finding hope in the middle of it. Together, we dive into what true community looks like, how to rebuild trust after betrayal, and why bravery often looks like simply saying, “I need help.” Whether you're in a valley right now or preparing for the storms that will inevitably come, Toni's wisdom and humor will leave you encouraged, empowered, and ready to believe in the goodness of people again. --------------------------------- Pinterest Freebie: https://theheartuniversity.com/pinterest --------------------------------- Heart Shop: https://theheartuniversity.com/shop  --------------------------------- Primally Pure: https://primallypure.com/?rfsn=5649435.725fd3 Use HEARTANDHUSTLE for 10% OFF. --------------------------------- Stay Updated with Toni and check out her new book: https://www.instagram.com/tonijcollier/ - https://www.instagram.com/brkncrayons/ - Book Link on Amazon - "Don't Try This Alone" --------------------------------- Watch on YouTube: https://youtube.com/@theheartuniversitychannel?si=33lzxpBA9UxKlgTE --------------------------------- If you want to connect with us and other listeners in the Heart and Hustle community join our Facebook group here. --------------------------------- “PODCAST10” for 10% off anything from The Shop! www.theheartuniversity.com/shop --------------------------------- Follow along: www.instagram.com/mrslindseyroman www.instagram.com/evierupp www.instagram.com/theheartuniversity

Send us a textRemember that perfect summer day when everything tasted better? That's exactly what we captured in this episode when we cracked open a Blueberry Lemon Shandy from Saugatuck Brewing Company. This Michigan-made marvel transported us straight to flavor paradise with its authentic blueberry profile that had us reminiscing about childhood cereals and carefree summer days. Not too sweet, not artificial - just pure, refreshing blueberry goodness that earned our coveted perfect 10 rating.But summer isn't always sunshine and rainbows, as we learned with our second tasting. The Rocket Pop Sour from High Wire Brewing promised nostalgic popsicle flavors but delivered something closer to melted popsicle water from the bottom of a cooler. With minimal carbonation and an identity crisis that left us questioning what makes a beer truly "sour," this disappointing 5/10 experience proved that creative concepts don't always translate to satisfying sips.Between tastings, we swap stories about weekend golfing adventures, camping mishaps, and the peculiar behavior of aging dogs with digestive issues. Our "Ricky's Bad Choices" segment ventures into morally questionable territory with questions about sleeping in empty graves for cash and whether we'd crush children's Santa dreams for money. We also bond over our shared hatred of extended warranty phone scams and reminisce about the friend dynamics of bar-hopping in our younger days.Whether you're seeking your next favorite summer beer or just want to hang with friends who tell it like it is, this episode delivers honest reviews, genuine laughs, and the occasional cautionary tale about what happens when your beer tastes like glue.

This week on the podcast we're diving into a topic that's near and dear to so many of us: friendships for neurodivergent kids (and yes, for us as parents too). With a new school year kicking into gear, worries about social connection and "finding your people" can rise to the surface—especially for families navigating neurodiversity. What We're Unpacking This Episode: Why friendships can be challenging for neurodivergent kids (think asynchronous development, sensory sensitivities, social anxiety, or intense interests that aren't always shared by peers). Supporting your child: From validating their feelings and practicing social skills together, to seeking out interest-based clubs and even professional help when needed, we're covering loads of strategies. Managing our own expectations: Sometimes it's our hearts that ache more than our kids'—especially if they're totally content solo-building Lego metropolises while we scroll by endless social media playdate posts. (You're not alone if this sounds all too familiar.) Key Takeaway: There's no single “right” way for kids to socialize—and not all loneliness means your child is suffering. We talk about the difference between the child who longs for connection (and how to support them) and the content solo flyer (who's truly happy alone, even if that's hard for us to accept as parents). Quick Tips From the Episode: Normalize neurodiversity at home. Celebrate differences. Your child isn't broken—they're beautifully wired. Prioritize shared interests over age. Sometimes the best friendships are across generations or centered around passions rather than peer groups. Practice and role-play social skills in low-pressure environments (think: one-on-one meetups, online clubs like our Learner's Lab, or even just chatting with a cool neighbor with a unique hobby). Know that seeking therapy or coaching is a strength, not a weakness—for both kids and parents. A Gentle Reminder: If your child is thriving emotionally, feels seen and supported, and is building their life at their own pace—even if it doesn't look the way you expected—you're doing a great job. Sometimes the most meaningful friendships (and personal growth) take the scenic route.   Links and Resources from Today's Episode Thank you to our sponsors: CTC Math – Flexible, affordable math for the whole family!

If friends keep cancelling on you, ignoring your success, or talking behind your back it might be time to ask, are they a bad friend, or are you? Loneliness is often called an epidemic, but it's not always about lacking friends, it can be about failing to be a good one. Danielle Bayard Jackson is a friendship expert and host of the Friend Forward podcast. She says neglect, poor communication, and one-sided effort quietly erode relationships and offers the tools to re-evaluate what it takes to have friends and to be a good friend.
