Many of us want to trust our intuition — but it's rarely that simple. Old patterns, trauma responses, people-pleasing, anxiety, and our nervous system can all speak loudly inside us. When those voices mix together, it can feel confusing to know what's actually intuition and what's something else entirely. If you've ever looked back at a decision and thought “I should have known better,” you're not alone. Learning to trust your intuition isn't about always making the “right” choice, it's about building a relationship with yourself over time. In this episode of Moonbeaming, Sarah answers thoughtful questions from the Moon Studio community about intuition, discernment, trauma responses, and the deeper work of learning how to listen to yourself with compassion.

     If you lose a spouse, you're a widow. If you lose your parents, an orphan. But we don't have the language for someone who lost a sibling – your first friend, your first ally, your first enemy (probably, at least temporarily). Grief always feels like a gut punch, but losing a sibling is a unique kind of pain that we don't talk about enough.  So today, I'm joined by Steph Wittels Wachs, former TTFA guest and sister of comedy legend Harris Wittels, who died in 2015 of an accidental overdose. We're talking about what losing a sibling means and sharing the notes, advice and insights from people who know what it's like to live in the world without their siblings.

When you know a problem, you can address it. When you have the background of a situation, you are better equipped to assess it and react appropriately. Proper education and training are essential for achieving objectives and goals within a given field. One day, Jesus was talking to a woman in a village he was passing through. She had not met him before. Both his ethnicity and his gender as a Jewish man would have made a public conversation between the two of them culturally inappropriate at that time. But Jesus was willing to work past those cultural norms. He began the conversation by asking her for a drink of water. When she responded with surprise and suspicion, what he said got her attention even more: “If you knew the gift of God and who it is that asks you for a drink, you would have asked him, and he would have given you living water.” “If you knew…” But she didn’t. To her, Jesus was just a bold Jewish rabbi. But he was so much more. He was the Son of God who gave physical water its qualities that are so important for life. He was the Messiah, who came from God to quench the needs of thirsty souls with his grace, mercy, and forgiving love. He was the only one who could solve her deepest need and ours. Jesus wants us to know him, too. When we know who he is, we eagerly come to him with every need of our thirsty souls, knowing that he will meet each one. He already has. By taking our sins on himself, he set us free from guilt. By giving his life for us, he rescued us from death. By rising from the dead, he gave us eternal life with him. No need is too great for him. In the Bible, Jesus invites you to get to know him better. Then, knowing how he loves to bless you, turn to him in every time of need. Prayer: Dear Jesus, lead me to your Word to know you better and, knowing you, to come to you for every blessing. Amen. Daily Devotions is brought to you by WELS.

    https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20260308dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:8 True, Lasting Peace Amidst the struggles and hassles of our lives, there is a longing for true, lasting peace. If only there could be the peace that existed in the Garden of Eden. Our first parents lived in perfect harmony with God. They were his friends. And out of that peaceful relationship flowed a warm relationship with one another. The tragedy of sin was that it shattered both the peace between God and people and the peace among people. Quickly after the fall into sin, we see the rise of doubts and fears and hostility, which people directed both toward God and toward one another. True, lasting peace was lost. It's not hard to point to examples in our lives that demonstrate the truth of this: the envy in our hearts, the lust of our eyes, and the hurt that we cause by wayward words and selfish actions. For all these sins and the many more we do, we truly deserve God's eternal wrath and the pronouncement of his condemnation. Yet the remarkable thing is that God loves us, and he demonstrated his one-of-a-kind love by reestablishing peace between himself and his sinful, rebellious world of people. Listen to the words again: “While we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.” Every teaching of Scripture rests upon this truth. Though all people are undeserving sinners, Christ sacrificed himself in their place to win peace between God and us. Peace was reestablished through the death of Jesus Christ for “the punishment that brought us peace was upon him” (Isaiah 53:5). God’s righteous wrath against sin was directed at Jesus, and he paid the deadly price for sin with his own precious blood and his innocent sufferings and death. Jesus said, “Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid” (John 14:27). Prayer: O Jesus, by humbling yourself and dying for me, you rescued sinners from the condemnation I deserved. Comfort me with the true, lasting peace which comes from knowing and believing that you are my precious Savior. Amen. Daily Devotions is brought to you by WELS.

    Send a textIn this profound conversation, Tom Attig explores grief as a lifelong process of “relearning the world” after the death of a loved one. Rather than seeking closure, he emphasizes continuing love in separation, understanding grief as engagement with life's deepest mysteries rather than problems to solve, and rediscovering meaning through memory, gratitude, and connection. Through philosophical insight and compassionate storytelling, Attig reframes bereavement as a transformation—an invitation to live more consciously, love more deeply, and remain open to life even in the shadow of loss.http://griefsheart.com/Resources:https://auraverse.networkwww.SoulAwakeningStore.comwww.ClaudiuMurgan.comSupport the show

    Ask Me How I Know: Multifamily Investor Stories of Struggle to Success

    When relationships begin to feel strained under pressure, it is often not lack of love but identity misalignment. This episode explores how work and contribution can quietly replace connection—and how presence restores what performance cannot.When work starts replacing connection, it rarely happens on purpose. It happens gradually.You build. You provide. You stabilize. You carry.And somewhere along the way, contribution begins to stand in for intimacy.This Saturday episode focuses on Horizontal Alignment—how internal identity shifts show up in marriage, parenting, friendships, leadership, philanthropy, and legacy. Not as theory, but in lived experience.Many high-capacity, responsible adults measure devotion through provision. They equate reliability with love. They become the emotional infrastructure in every room. Over time, being needed can quietly replace being known.This is not burnout in the traditional sense. It is relational misalignment layered over identity conditioning.You may find that:– You feel indispensable but not deeply supported– You are respected for your steadiness but rarely seen in your uncertainty– You confuse being useful with being connected– You struggle to receive without earning itWhen identity fuses with responsibility, output displaces intimacy.In marriage, this can look like parallel competence without vulnerability.In parenting, it can look like providing everything except unhurried presence.In friendships, it can look like being the strong one but never the one held.In leadership, it can look like carrying culture instead of cultivating connection.And sometimes, when contribution loosens its grip, something else surfaces.Grief.Loneliness that hustle once masked.The realization that usefulness became the currency of intimacy.That is not failure.It is clarity.Clarity allows connection to deepen beyond competence.This is orientation before resolution.Recognition before correction.Companionship instead of accusation.Today's Micro Recalibration:Notice one relationship in your life where you tend to contribute more than you connect. Without changing anything, ask yourself: If I stopped proving my value here, what might I allow myself to feel? Sit with the answer gently. Not to fix it.

    Navigating Grief, Leadership, and Global Opportunity: Strategic Insights from Carl ManlanIn a recent episode of The Thoughtful Entrepreneur Podcast, host Josh Elledge sat down with Carl Manlan, a prolific Author and the Head of Partnerships and Business Development at AGRA. Their wide-ranging conversation delved into the profound intersection of personal loss, empathetic leadership, and the immense economic potential within African markets. Carl, who also co-hosts the Inside the Blueprint Podcast with his daughter, shares how his poetry collection, I Can Breathe, serves as a vessel for processing grief and transforming it into a leadership strength. This episode provides a masterclass for executives and founders on how to cultivate more humane, resilient workplaces while staying attuned to the intergenerational shifts shaping the future of global business.From Personal Reflection to Empathetic Organizational DesignThe modern executive often operates at a pace that leaves little room for the "inner work" required to lead with true empathy. Carl Manlan advocates for a radical return to self-reflection, citing his own practice of a 120-day writing course as the foundation for his professional clarity. By dedicating time to pause and reconnect with formative experiences, leaders can dismantle the stoic barriers that often hinder authentic connection with their teams. This process isn't merely therapeutic; it is a strategic alignment tool that allows a leader to recognize that their employees are whole people who carry invisible burdens—including grief—into the workspace every day.Creating an empathetic work environment requires moving beyond performative sympathy toward structural support. Carl emphasizes that grief is a manifestation of love and a universal human experience that doesn't simply vanish at the office door. Leaders must normalize conversations around mental well-being and loss, providing "space rather than just sympathy." This means building flexibility into operational workflows and fostering a culture where vulnerability is modeled from the top down. When a leader acknowledges their own humanity, it gives the entire organization permission to be resilient, ultimately reducing burnout and increasing long-term employee engagement.Furthermore, the conversation highlighted the necessity of intergenerational dialogue in future-proofing an organization's culture. Through his work with his daughter, Carl demonstrates that the next generation of innovators—particularly in emerging markets like Africa—view the world through a lens of digital fluency and social impact. For businesses looking to tap into the "Africa that exists"—a continent of 1.4 billion people driven by youth and entrepreneurship—the approach must be one of partnership rather than paternalism. By bridging the gap between established leadership wisdom and the fresh curiosity of the youth, organizations can unlock new narratives of hope, healing, and unprecedented economic opportunity.About Carl ManlanCarl Manlan is a celebrated Author, poet, and international development professional. As the Head of Partnerships at AGRA, he works at the nexus of agriculture, finance, and economic transformation in Africa. He is the author of the moving poetry collection I Can Breathe and a dedicated advocate for mental health and intergenerational mentorship.About Carl Manlan OfficialCarl Manlan's official platform serves as a hub for his creative and professional endeavors. It features his published works, including I Can Breathe, and provides resources for those interested in the Inside the Blueprint Podcast. The platform emphasizes the power of storytelling to bridge cultural and generational divides, fostering global conversations on leadership and resilience.Links Mentioned in This Episode:Carl Manlan Official WebsiteCarl Manlan on LinkedInKey Episode HighlightsThe 120-Day Reflection: How a structured daily writing habit can sharpen executive decision-making and emotional intelligence.Grief as a Leadership Asset: Transforming personal loss into a catalyst for building high-trust, empathetic organizational cultures.The "Africa That Exists": Moving beyond risk-aversion to identify high-growth opportunities in African agriculture and tech-enabled entrepreneurship.Intergenerational Synergy: Lessons from co-hosting a podcast with a 13-year-old on how to mentor and learn from Gen Z.The Metaphor of Breath: Using poetry as a practical tool for healing and maintaining professional momentum during seasons of adversity.ConclusionCarl Manlan's insights remind us that the most effective leaders are those who stay connected to their own humanity.

    Send a textOn this week's minisode, I'm talking about how one of the hardest parts of being single can be a quiet grief for the life you expected: the culturally prescribed path of meeting someone, marrying, and having kids. This particular kind of grief is often an understated pang triggered by friends' family milestones, but can coexist with genuine happiness, independence, and peace in a single, child-free life. Grief can also signal transition, and letting go of an outdated future while building a meaningful life that fits your present.

    https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20260307dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion The Lord had said to Abram, “Go from your country, your people and your father’s household to the land I will show you. “I will make you into a great nation, and I will bless you; I will make your name great, and you will be a blessing.” Genesis 12:1-2 Making a Name for Yourself More than one has dreamed of it. Some have been lured by its promise. Others have cursed its lack of fulfillment. We call it many different things: “making it,” “success,” “winning.” Striving for it is as American as Mom and apple pie. It all comes down to making a name for yourself. People have gone about it in different ways, from getting an advanced degree to destroying personal relationships. “How much do you want it?” seems to be the strategy of success. Abram was already a success in the eyes of the world. He was married and wealthy. Then God changed everything. God promised Abram even more. God promised Abram a name so great that generations would remember it. Abram believed God’s promise, left his home, and went to a land he had never been to before. God makes a promise to you, too. His promise is that your name will be great—maybe not here on this earth, but certainly in the roles of heaven. God will make your name great, too. How much do you want it? Believe in Jesus. Abram did. That’s the way God marks success. Prayer: Savior, may your promises fill my heart with eager anticipation to see your glory forever in heaven. Amen.

    My friend Heather Sorensen (married mother of 4; grandmother of 14, early morning seminary teacher), joins us to share her story of losing her daughter Hannah in a traffic accident at age 15 in 2013. Heather talks about the initial and continued grief of her death and how she is navigating both holding her grief and her testimony of being with Hannah again. Heather talks about a dream she had before Hannah was born and that feeling returning during Hannah's death. She also talks about losing her son Richard at birth. Heather talks about not being active in the Church for twenty years and her journey to return to the church and the importance of creating her identity rooted in Jesus Christ and invites us to do the same. Heather talks about her son Zachary's cancer diagnosis during home MTC, fear she would lose another child, and Zachary's recovery and serving a mission. Heather talks about why she decided to write a book about Hannah—called Dandelion Blessings—which is Hannah's nickname. If you are looking for a genuine/honest story of intense grief—and finding hope/peace to move forward—please listen and share Heather's podcast and book. Thank you, Heather, for your courage and vulnerability to be on the podcast. You are helping so many! Links: Dandelion Blessings (at Amazon): https://a.co/d/0eK9OYGy
