Todd and Cathy share the upcoming changes to their podcast, Zen Parenting Radio, which will be renamed Zen POP Parenting starting June 1st! They also discuss the normal shifts in kids' friendships, highlighting the importance of loyalty, boundaries, and the reality that friendships evolve. As parents, we can feel more overwhelmed than our kids when these changes happen, but it's important to normalize the ups and downs of friendships and offer support without letting our own fear or discomfort take over.

Death doula, attorney, and spiritual guide Alua Arthur joins us to explore how embracing mortality awakens us to life's deepest meaning. Through her book Briefly Perfectly Human and her work helping people die with peace and purpose, Alua invites us to face what we fear most — not to prepare for dying, but to learn how to live fully. We explore the taboos around death, the regrets people hold at the end of life, and the powerful clarity that comes from asking what remains undone. 20% off Pique Life Tea:https://www.piquelife.com/knowthyselfAndrés Book Recs: https://www.knowthyselfpodcast.com/book-list___________00:00 Intro04:20 What Is a Death Doula?08:10 How Facing Death Changes How We Live12:45 Why We Fear Death17:15 Imagining Your Own Death21:40 The Most Common Regrets of the Dying26:05 What Remains Undone in Your Life?28:18 Ad: Pique Life30:10 Facing Mortality as a Spiritual Practice34:50 The Art of Dying Well39:25 The Beauty of Grief and Letting Go43:10 How to Be Present With the Dying47:30 Conversations About Death With Loved Ones51:00 How Alua Found Her Calling55:40 What Dying People Teach About Living Fully1:00:15 Grief, Identity, and Rebirth1:05:30 How to Support Someone Who's Grieving1:10:45 The Mystery of What Happens After Death1:15:00 The “Glitter Wave” Theory of Consciousness1:20:20 Reimagining Rituals Around Death1:25:40 Living Authentically Before It's Too Late1:30:00 Conclusion___________Episode Resources: https://www.instagram.com/alualoveslife/https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BSP6FVYR/https://www.instagram.com/andreduqum/https://www.instagram.com/knowthyself/https://www.youtube.com/@knowthyselfpodcasthttps://www.knowthyselfpodcast.com

When life takes an unexpected turn, when a relationship ends, plans fall apart, or disappointment appears out of nowhere, it can feel like everything is working against you. But what if life is still on your side, even in those moments of heartache and uncertainty? This podcast episode invites you to see challenges in a new way and find peace in the middle of change. When you stop believing that life is against you, you begin to open to the quiet rhythm of possibility, where healing and hope can start to grow. Even in pain there is movement. Even in loss there is life still unfolding with you. Take ten minutes to breathe, reflect, and remember that you are not separate from life. You are part of it, and within that connection, there is always a way forward. Poem: Life Is Still With You When the path breaks open beneath your feet, and everything you planned disappears into air, pause. The world is still breathing with you. The sunrise does not forget your name. The wind still carries new beginnings. Life is not against you. It moves through you, even now in every breath, in every quiet act of courage, in every small moment you choose to begin again.

In this episode of The Body Grievers Club, Bri sits down with Registered Dietitian and Certified Body Trust® Specialist Aaron Flores, RDN. They dig into how grief shows up in men's body image work, why “optimization culture” keeps so many dudes stuck, and what it really means to move from control to trust without the shame-fix-rush.Bri and Aaron unpack the lifelong messages men receive about “fixing” their bodies, the pressure to perform masculinity, and the quiet grief of losing the hope of thinness, rippedness, or former abilities. They talk about straddling two ships, diet culture and body liberation, and why permission to be in the in-between is often the bridge to values-aligned change.They also explore community as an antidote to isolation, how empathy (not fixing) rewires the story, and why acceptance = “the willingness to receive my body as it is.” From Big Mouth's “shame wizard” to Yoda's wisdom, this convo uses metaphor to make the work doable. If you've ever felt like you should just “hack” your way to a better body, this episode offers a different path: zoom out, name the grief, and build trust - slowly, gently, on purpose.TIMESTAMPS:02:10 Aaron's story: from running a VA weight-loss program to Body Trust

Some of the hardest parts of grief are the ones no one sees. They're the quiet moments you carry in silence — the dates no one remembers, the chair no one fills, the ache that never really leaves. But what if those hidden moments could become holy ground? In today's episode, Teresa opens her heart to share the real truths grieving moms live with every single day — the parts no one talks about — and teaches how speaking them out loud can become an act of healing and worship. In this episode, you'll discover: Why God calls the hidden places of your grief holy How to turn unspoken pain into lament The meaning behind Psalm 147:3  Why naming what hurts out loud invites God to heal what's unseen Even when no one else understands, friend, God does. He's not afraid of what you carry — He's waiting to meet you in it.

How can you flourish after life forces you to pivot? In today's episode, “Flourish When Life Pivots with Peg Arnold,” host Tina Yeager is joined by national speaker, international author, and self-proclaimed “drama queen for Jesus,” Peg Arnold. Together, they dive deep into how to handle major life changes—whether it's moving cross-country, transitioning out of a long-held job, or letting go of deeply-rooted roles and routines. Peg shares her own story of uprooting after 32 years in the same home, facing the anxieties and grief that come with change, and discovering that leaning into faith can reveal new purpose in unfamiliar places. The conversation covers how to process fear and loss, the importance of recognizing grief in all its forms, and practical steps to find healing.

Acknowledge Your Grief: Change often includes loss—not just of people, but roles, routines, and even identity. Peg discusses the importance of letting yourself grieve and offers ways to honor what you're leaving behind. Find Joy in Small Moments: Even amidst sorrow, there are jewels of joy. Peg encourages us to seek these “little joys”—whether it's a walk in nature, a comforting scripture, or a surprise encounter with an eagle that reminded her of God's promises. Manage Stress Mindfully: Address every part of yourself—spiritual, physical, mental, and relational. Pause to breathe, reset your environment, and be vigilant about decluttering negative thoughts. Move Forward With Purpose: After healing, seek God for the next steps. Peg shares how unexpected new goals and ministry opportunities unfolded as she trusted Him with her future.

Formed in Grief & SorrowOctober 19, 2025 • RD McClenagan • John 11:33–36This Sunday, RD continued our fall series, More Like Him. Grief is the natural response to losing something or someone we love, and it shapes us in profound ways, often revealing the depth of our love. Jesus Himself was “a man of sorrows, acquainted with grief,” modeling honesty before God, compassion for others, and faithfulness in suffering. He wept with those who mourned, showing that our tears matter to Him and that grief can draw us nearer to His heart. Through loss, whether of dreams, relationships, health, or loved ones, we are invited to bring our sorrow to Christ, who transforms it into deeper faith, empathy, and hope. Because of Jesus—the one who bore our griefs and carried our sorrows—everything sad will one day come untrue, and even what was broken will be made more beautiful in His resurrection.MORE LIKE HIM RESOURCES: https://fellowshipknox.org/moreWEBSITE: https://fellowshipknox.org/INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/fellowshipknox/

Most men don't grieve. We "handle it" with substances, work, or just shoving it down until we're emotionally dead inside. John Kammer tried that approach for years after losing three of his closest friends. For some reason it didn't work. So he built Guardian [AI]ngels (guardianaingels.ai), an AI tool that lets you have conversations with digital representations of people you've lost. Not Ouija board nonsense. Actual therapeutic conversations that help you process grief, find resolution, and maybe (finally) cry. In this episode, we cover: → Why traditional grief therapy failed for John (and might be failing you) → How Guardian [AI]ngels works and what safeguards exist → The difference between processing grief and replacing reality → Using AI to practice difficult conversations before having them IRL → Whether you should build an AI version of your worst self (yes, seriously) This isn't your typical tech conversation. It's raw, it's uncomfortable, and it might just give you permission to finally feel something. ---- GUEST WEBSITE: www.guardianaingels.ai  ---- MORE FROM BROBOTS: Connect with us on Threads, Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, and Tiktok Subscribe to BROBOTS on Youtube Join our community in the BROBOTS Facebook group ---- LINKS TO OUR PARTNERS: Take control of how you'd like to feel with Apollo Neuro Explore the many benefits of cold therapy for your body with Nurecover Muse's Brain Sensing Headbands Improve Your Meditation Practice.

Episode Overview In this deeply personal and soul-stirring conversation, Pete Cohen sits down with Paul for a reflective exploration of The Hero's Journey — not as a myth, but as a lived experience. Together, they peel back the layers of masculinity, stillness, loss, and inner transformation. From Joseph Campbell's timeless teachings to modern myths like The Matrix, Gladiator, and Lord of the Rings, Pete and Paul uncover what it really means to answer “the call to adventure” in our own lives — the call to wake up, let go, and come home to who we truly are. They talk about men's circles, spiritual awakening, grief, and the courage to face one's truth without distraction. What emerges is a rare and honest conversation about resting in being rather than doing, about presence over performance, and about why our deepest healing often begins when we finally stop running. Key Themes The Hero's Journey and the path of inner transformation The courage to rest, pause, and simply “be” The masks men wear and why vulnerability is sacred Joseph Campbell, myth, and meaning in modern life Letting go of the “destination mentality” Grief as a doorway to awakening Relationships as mirrors for our healing Finding strength through men's circles and authentic connection Memorable Quotes “I'm just resting in being — and that's rare in this world.” “The hero's journey isn't out there. It's the one within.” “Stopping isn't dangerous — it's where the magic begins.” “Healing isn't a quick fix. It's a deep calling to become more real.” “It's not about what I do for the world.

Join Sandra for a fascinating conversation with psychologist and medium Phillip Kayrouz, and intuitive energy healer Leah Yiannis, the co-authors of The Multidimensional Soul. Both Phillip and Leah's spiritual journeys were ignited by the sudden and tragic loss of a close family member, catapulting them from deep grief into a profound spiritual awakening. Their stories are a powerful testament to the truth that our souls are eternal and that our connections with loved ones are never broken by death. In this episode, Phillip shares his story of being unable to process the grief of his mother's passing, which led to a visitation from his spirit guide and a series of undeniable signs that she was still with him. Leah recounts how her aunt's tragic death cracked her open to the spirit world, leading to a direct, clairvoyant vision of her aunt and a lifelong connection through signs and synchronicities. Together, they explore the idea that we are vast, multidimensional souls having a human experience. Discover how the "dark night of the soul," often triggered by grief, is actually a sacred initiation: a dismantling of old beliefs that makes way for our true purpose to emerge. Phillip and Leah explain that our souls have a "cosmic anatomy" that extends far beyond our physical bodies, and by connecting to this greater essence, we can access higher levels of guidance. Learn how to recognize the "language of Spirit" through signs and symbols, and how to slow down, be gentle with yourself, and find your way back to your own inner truth.

Loss is a natural part of life, but that doesn't make it easy. Grief can pull us into our deepest places of despair. A pit of darkness that seems impossible to escape from. In this outcast encounter, Jesus travels to the obscure town of Nain. Even though Jesus could fill a stadium of people, he chooses to walk miles in the hot sun to bless just one lonely widow.  Today's Bible verse is John 14:18 from the King James Version.Download the Pray.com app for more Christian content including, Daily Prayers, Inspirational Testimonies, and Bedtime Bible Stories.Pray.com is the digital destination for faith.

Courage doesn't have to roar; in life after suicide loss, one small ask can unlock support, information, or relief.Journal prompt: “If Future-Me spoke up today, she'd ask me to…”What we mean by a “small ask” (so we're on the same page): A small ask is specific, short, and time-bound—one clear request that lightens the load. Examples:Support: “Could you check in with me Sunday evening?” / “Would you sit with me on the phone for 10 minutes—no fixing, just listening?”Information: “Can you point me to the right form/link for X?” / “Who handles scheduling for Y?”Logistics/Relief: “Do you have 15 minutes Tuesday to help me sort this?” / “Could you pick up milk when you're at the store?” / “Can you walk with me into the event and help me leave early?” Keep it to one ask, one time window, one person/service. Clean is kind—to them and to your nervous system.A Flicker (Hope) — Relief after a sent message Often the worst part is holding it. Notice the ease that arrives once the ask leaves your body.To Rebuild (Healing) — Choose your micro-ask Pick one:Information: “Can you point me to the right form/link?”Support: “Could you check in with me this weekend?”Logistics: “Do you have 15 minutes Tuesday to help me sort this?”Take a Step (Becoming) — Send it cleanly Keep it short, kind, and specific. End with one option for timing. If the answer is no or later, you still gained clarity (and energy).Choose-your-energy menu:Hollow (low): Hollow — Draft the ask in notes only. One sentence. Save.Healing (medium): Healing — Send one ask to a safe person or service.Becoming (higher): Becoming — Send two: one personal, one practical (e.g., admin/help).Food for Thought Today: Asking isn't burdening; it's distributing weight. Every clean request tells your nervous system you're not alone—and teaches your circle how to show up the way you need.Exhale. Keep what serves you; leave the rest. I'll be here again tomorrow.

Send us an email @ info@parentcoachesunleashed.com In this deeply reflective episode, hosts Carrie Wiesenfeld and Jessica Anger explore alternative avenues of comfort and healing for those grieving the loss of a loved one. Joined by professional medium Linda Heithaus, the conversation centers around how mediumship and spiritual communication can offer solace and a renewed sense of connection during a time of profound loss.Linda shares her personal journey into mediumship, explaining how she connects with both the client and the spirit world to facilitate messages from those who have passed. The episode highlights how signs from the deceased—whether through dreams, sensations, symbols, or words—can manifest in unique and meaningful ways. These signs often include deeply personal details that serve to validate the authenticity of the experience and reassure those left behind.The discussion emphasizes that belief in the medium's abilities can significantly enhance the experience, opening the door to deeper emotional healing. Even skeptics, the hosts suggest, may find comfort when mediumship is demystified and presented with empathy and integrity.Spirituality is woven throughout the episode as a central theme, shaping how individuals understand death, the afterlife, and ongoing connections with loved ones. Jessica, Carrie, and Linda encourage listeners to honor grief as a personal and nonlinear journey. They suggest that mediums can act as compassionate guides, helping individuals navigate this path by facilitating messages that bring peace, closure, and sometimes even joy.This episode offers a sensitive and thought-provoking look at how nontraditional approaches—especially spiritual and intuitive ones—can support the grieving process and help people feel less alone in their pain.Linda's Websitewww.lindaheithaus.cominstagram: @rose_colored_medium

ShownotesWhen Andrea started her journey of grief many years ago, she found she needed to talk to others who had experienced loss. After attending local hospice groups that were helpful, she realized something was missing, as most bereavement groups she found didn't include the aspect of faith. Over the years she was blessed to connect with others who share a grief faith story. And because of this she met two beautiful women who came into her life who also felt the same way and took the call to help others in need of grief support. Our GuestsDianne Crumpacker and Cleo Carillo are the organizers of St. Michaels Catholic Grief support group at St. Michaels Parish in Stockton, California. Through their patron our Lady of Sorrows they help others in their journey of grief and loss. LinksEpisodes featuring Rosaline Cruz-RineS1 E2 Different Kinds of Grief with Rosaline Cruz-RineS1 E3 Having Expectations in Grief with Rosaline Cruz-RineS1 E8 How Long is Too Long?

Episode 272: healing isn't linear (Full Episode on Patreon) | This is a preview of a subscriber-only episode from Aligned Access, my sacred space on Patreon where we go deeper than ever before.In this bonus episode, I'm opening up about what it really looks like to heal; the messy, non-linear, deeply human parts we don't always talk about. If you've ever felt frustrated for not being “over it” yet or confused when old emotions resurface, this one's for you. We'll talk about grief, self-compassion, emotional growth, and how healing isn't something you finish - it's something you live, one gentle moment at a time.

For this week's episode and in honour of Infant Loss Week, I interview Annabel Bower who takes us through her experience of stillbirth and the immense, layered grief that followed. Two weeks after her fourth child – a boy named Miles – was born still, she started writing about her experience so she could record all the little details that she knew would eventually fade. As she journeyed through a grief that stripped all colour from her world, she documented the days and weeks of life after loss and went on to interview women who had experienced miscarriage, stillbirth or infant loss. The finished project is her book, Miles Apart, a heartfelt offering of support for those who have lost a baby and are enduring the incomprehensible grief. Annabel hopes that her words break the stigma and the silence of miscarriage and stillbirth and open a vital conversation for us all to have. Hosted on Acast.

Jerry's passion is helping bereaved children. When I was first introduced to her, Jerry was described as a widowed mother with a heart for grieving kids. She'd written Joy Overcame Sorrow, a fictional tale for late‑elementary and middle‑school readers about a ten‑year‑old girl coping with her father's death. The story follows Joy's grief journey, letting parents buy a companion workbook so children can record their own feelings while reading. I booked Jerry for the show because listeners frequently ask how parents can support grieving children. I didn't realize her personal loss mirrored our own so closely. Jerry lost her husband her best friend — and raised their young family alone. Before that, she endured four pregnancy losses, including delivering and burying two infants, Jenny and Jesse. Those early tragedies marked her first encounter with deep grief and forced her to help her surviving kids navigate sorrow. Little did she know the next forty years would bring more loss, both as a widow and as a K‑9 teacher working with grieving students. In the classroom, Jerry advised fellow teachers on supporting grieving children. Many educators feel helpless; asking parents is tough because they, too, are immersed in grief. Colleagues urged her to write a book to help grieving children. Jerry had already published a non-fiction book, helping widows rediscover joy after loss, but writing for children would prove to be very different indeed.  Instead of a non‑fiction how‑to guide, Jerry chose fiction — a powerful decision. Stories teach while comforting, allowing children to see themselves reflected without overt instruction. Kids gravitate to narrative—they don't want to feel singled out. By experiencing grief through Joy's eyes, they learn, empathize, and feel less alone. Her novel and its workbook now serve as a gentle bridge for families and teachers navigating the delicate path of loss together.

A tender question sits at the center of this conversation: what happens when we trust the heart more than the plan? We follow that thread through three original readings from Revelations of the Sky and into the lived terrain of starting over, moving from Alaska to Kauai, and rebuilding identity with fewer titles and more truth. Along the way, we challenge the myth of a single calling, exploring purpose as plural—something we practice in small daily choices, not just in big career moves—and invite permission to experiment with language, work, and self-expression.We talk openly about grief as a beginning rather than an end point: the catalyst that widened the path to spirituality, intuition, and creative risk. If you identify as sensitive or empathic, you'll hear a reframe you might need today: feeling deeply is not a flaw to fix but a strength to master. That intensity can hurt, but it also heals—it's the same openness that lets joy register in bright color and makes meaning easier to find in ordinary moments. From that place, wisdom becomes less theoretical and more embodied, tempered by trial, mistake, and the quiet kind of courage that accrues over time.The final movement is a call to be seen. Not as a performance, but as an act of alignment—peeling back old skins, integrating professional expertise with spiritual gifts, and allowing your voice to carry the life you've actually lived. Trust here isn't a leap into nothing; it's a series of grounded steps toward what feels alive. If you've been waiting for permission to shine, consider this your gentle green light. Listen, reflect, and then tell us: where is your heart asking you to go next?

Julia Cowley, a retired FBI profiler and the host of The Consult podcast, and I set out to discuss the University of Idaho murders and the killer of four college students, Bryan Kohberger. But something strange happened when we began discussing the survivors who were in the house.It was during a week when a beloved podcaster, friend, and researcher for this podcast died. In this emotionally charged bonus, we explore grief, trauma, and the importance of kindness within the true crime community and in life. Our conversation touches on how loss, children and age have changed the way we view true crime stories.NOTE: In July 2025, those roommates, Dylan Mortensen and Bethany Funke, broke their silence at Kohberger's sentencing in the murders of 20-year-olds Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin, and 21-year-olds Kaylee Goncalves and Madison Mogen.

Values are steering, not slogans—translate one value into a doable 10-minute action and feel the quiet of alignment. Journal prompt: “A value I still trust—and one 10-minute way to live it…”A Flicker (Hope) — Alignment feels quieter When action matches belief, your body often softens. Notice the quiet that follows even a tiny aligned move.To Rebuild (Healing) — Name one value Options: kindness, truth, courage, service, creativity, presence, faithfulness. Write one sentence: “Today I live [value] by [micro-act].”Take a Step (Becoming) — Do the micro-act (≤10 min) Examples:Kindness: write a 3-sentence encouragement to someone struggling.Truth: draft a clear boundary email/text.Service: share a resource, leave water/snacks for tomorrow-you.Creativity: free-write or sketch for 10 minutes.Presence: phone-free walk around the block; notice three colors.Choose-your-energy menu:Hollow (low): Hollow — Sit, place both feet on the floor, and say your value out loud once.Healing (medium): Healing — Do one 10-minute value act; drink a glass of water after.Becoming (higher): Becoming — Put a repeating 10-minute value block on your calendar (M/W/F).Food for Thought Today: Meaning grows where action repeats. Ten honest minutes, practiced regularly, changes the day more than a grand plan you never touch. You're not late—you're here.Exhale. Keep what serves you; leave the rest. I'll be here again tomorrow.

Today we're re-airing a special conversation that I got to have with my sister, Tatum Green, and our friend and counselor, David Thomas. We first shared this conversation back in February when Where Did TJ Go? released, and it's one that so many of you have told me has stayed with you. Today on October 15th — Infant Loss Awareness Day — we wanted to bring it back, to honor the families who have walked through loss, to hold space for your stories, and to remind you that you're not alone. This is a tender and honest conversation — we talk about grief, faith, and what it looks like to keep trusting God when life doesn't turn out the way you thought it would. David offers such wise, gentle guidance, and I'm just so grateful for how he helped us put words to what can feel impossible to say.

A grieving son returns to his late father's beloved brick home to box up belongings and keep the house in order during winter. What begins as an ordinary Saturday morning quickly spirals into something unexplainable. The moment he steps through the front door, the air is heavy with the unmistakable scent of his father's pine-scented aftershave — strong, fresh, as if Dad had just walked past. As he moves through the quiet house, unsettling details appear: the hallway rug mysteriously bunched up, the old countertop radio crackling to life on its own, and finally, the slow creak of his father's favorite recliner rocking in the frigid living room. When he whispers “Dad?” the chair abruptly stops. Moments later, a soft metallic click of the bathroom door latch sends a wave of icy dread down his spine. Was it simply grief playing tricks on the senses… or a father's spirit coming home to check on the house he loved? This episode of The Grave Talks explores the thin line between memory and haunting, and the lingering bonds that even death can't sever. If you're drawn to personal hauntings, grief-infused ghost encounters, and stories of spirits tied to the places they loved most, this one will stay with you long after the story ends. #HauntedFamilyHome #RealGhostStory #FathersSpirit #ParanormalEncounters #Ghosts #AfterlifeVisit #ParanormalActivity #TrueHaunting #GriefAndTheParanormal #HauntedRecliner Love real ghost stories?

In the second half of my conversation with grieving dad Terry Sternad, we see what grief—and faith—can look like more than forty years after the death of a child. Terry's six-year-old son, TJ, went to heaven in 1983, and while the ache of missing him has never gone away, Terry has discovered that joy and sorrow can coexist through a deep, abiding relationship with God.In this episode, Terry reflects on how grief has shaped his walk with God and how it has grown into a ministry of comfort for others through GriefShare. He shares candidly about how people and churches often struggle to support the bereaved, why those who are grieving sometimes have to take the first step in reaching out, and how helping others has become one of the greatest sources of healing in his own life.We talk about:What's changed—and what hasn't—in how our culture handles griefHow the church can better come alongside those who are hurtingThe lifelong evolution of a father's grief and faithHow serving others brings purpose and peaceThe powerful truth that “time doesn't heal; time with God heals”The freedom Terry found in finally releasing guilt and embracing his identity in ChristTerry's story is a portrait of what it looks like to keep growing, serving, and trusting God decades after loss. His honest reflections remind every grieving parent that while the pain remains, God's presence endures—and He can transform even our deepest sorrow into hope that lasts.Click HERE for more information about the GriefShare ministry, and to find a group in your area!  I would love to hear your thoughts on the show.
