In this touching and insightful conversation, Patrice returns to share an update on her ongoing journey of self-trust, relational clarity, and emotional healing. After creating space from a previous relationship that couldn't meet her needs, she reflects on patterns of seeking connection in unavailable places, and the surprising grief that can arise even in the presence of new joy and ease. Together, we explore the nuanced process of discerning what it really means to meet our own needs in relationship, not in isolation.Listen to hear a powerful metaphor about sitting in the sun to illuminate our active role in seeking strategies and environments that help us flourish, without slipping into self-blame or control. The episode highlights the paradoxical healing that can happen when joy brings our old pain into sharper focus, and reminds us that ease, play, and connection are not luxuries: they are pathways home.Key Takeaways:1.Self-trust is not all-or-nothing: it can be practiced on a continuum and deepened through lived experiences.2.Grief often arises after joy, as we finally feel the contrast between past deprivation and present nourishment.3.We are co-creators in meeting our needs, not passive recipients or isolated islands.4.Ease and play can feel foreign at first, but are vital indicators of healing environments.5.Healthy relationship dynamics aren't about forcing others to change, but about choosing where we bring our longing.

Welcome to Raw. Real. Redeemed! In the valleys, in the not knowing for sure, in the middle of the night with illness or chronic pain or a new family tension, in the worry of having to make hard decisions. With so many hard things in life there is often a mix of joy in the little blessings, all the while carrying the heaviness of grief that doesn't leave us as we move through days, weeks, months and years. Have questions or comments for us? We love to hear from our listeners! You can e mail us at hello@rawrealredeemed.com
To discuss the broken place of pain, we must start by acknowledging the universality of pain and the many forms it takes (body, mind, and spirit). From the grief we experience at the loss of a loved one, to the anxiety and depression so often clouding our minds, to the chronic illness and pain which beset our bodies, pain is a part of all of our lives. Then we must explore the character of our God as one in the business of healing that pain (a.k.a. Jehova rapha – “the God who heals,” Exodus 15:26). In Psalm 147 the psalmist depicts God as being actively involved in healing our pain: rebuilding broken cities, bringing exiles home, healing the brokenhearted, bandaging wounds, supporting the humble, and blessing children. Luke 6:17-19 describes Jesus doing very much the same thing (“He healed everyone”). What might it look like for us to put our trust in a God who heals? And how might we join him in that healing work in the lives of others?
It's been a heavy week. Grief, questions, even a deep ache over the brokenness of our world. But I'm holding onto this: when things feel dark, Jesus' light shines even brighter.
Tune in here to this Monday's edition of the Brett Winterble Show! Brett kicks off the program by talking about the deep sorrow and outrage surrounding the recent tragedy involving Charlie Kirk’s wife and the disturbing public reactions to her death. He reflects on the cruelty of those who celebrate suffering, especially when innocent spouses and children are affected. Brett urges his audience not to respond with hatred or violence, but with prayer and compassion. Acknowledging that some people are deeply damaged—by trauma, politics, or personal struggles—he encourages listeners to pray for healing and peace, rather than vengeance. Drawing on Christian values, Brett emphasizes the power of faith and moral restraint in the face of evil. He reminds his audience that judgment, not confrontation, is what these people fear most. In closing, he pleads for empathy and moral clarity, insisting that decency still matters and that spiritual strength is the most powerful response to hate. Listen here for all of this and more on The Brett Winterble Show! For more from Brett Winterble check out his YouTube channel. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
There can be some grief that accompanies growing in maturity. When we begin to grow, we start to notice how our growth has been stunted by missing maturity needs and tasks. That can bring up sorrowful feelings, both for ourselves and for our lack of ability to pass on good things to our children. Listen in to hear what is it like us, as mature people, to do when these feelings come up, and how to move forward in our God-given identity as we grow.

Brad Zerbo and Jaytriot dedicate this episode of The Audio Files to processing the shock and grief of Charlie Kirk's assassination through the power of music. They weave a journey from anger to resilience, curating songs that reflect raw emotion, unshakable defiance, and the hope needed to carry forward. From metal tracks that channel rage without violence, to classics like Tom Petty's “I Won't Back Down,” Tesla's “Hang Tough,” and Johnny Cash's “Man in Black,” each song becomes a statement of strength and principle. They share personal stories of concerts, mosh pits, and college experiences with intolerance, connecting them to Kirk's own legacy of dialogue over violence. Along the way, they reflect on Codex 9/11 screenings, the Streisand effect amplifying Kirk's message, and the broader cultural battle over free speech and indoctrination. The show closes with uplifting selections, Kansas, Hatebreed, opera, and more, reminding listeners that while grief is real, music can unify, inspire, and heal.

Australia’s Minister for Finance, Women and the Public Service, Katy Gallagher joins Kate for a candid and deeply personal conversation about politics, motherhood, grief, and the quiet work of driving change at the highest levels of government. From the heartbreaking loss of her partner to raising three children, one with complex needs, Katy shares how life experiences have shaped her political purpose and grounded her leadership style. She opens up about her biggest goal: ending violence against women and children within a generation, why financial security for women is essential to equality and what the finance portfolio really involves (hint: everything). Kate and Katy talk about the challenge of engaging men and boys in the gender equality conversation and why men need to be part of the solution.

Today on Just One More Page, Morgan skips the apple picking and heads straight for the cider slushies at the orchard. Sam also shares a hilarious (and slightly concerning) fear that her son might one day wander into the woods and try to befriend a bobcat, mistaking it for a house cat. Of course, we also dive into Play Nice by Rachel Harrison a novel that manages to be both chilling and hilarious at the same time. About The Novel: Clio Louise Barnes leads a picture-perfect life as a stylist and influencer, but beneath the glossy veneer she harbors a not-so glamorous secret: she grew up in a haunted house. Well, not haunted. Possessed. After Clio's parent's messy divorce, her mother, Alex, moved Clio and her sisters into a house occupied by a demon. Or so Alex claimed. That's not what Clio's sisters remember or what the courts determined when they stripped Alex of custody after she went off the deep end. But Alex was insistent; she even wrote a book about her experience in the house. After Alex's sudden death, the supposedly possessed house passes to Clio and her sisters. Where her sisters see childhood trauma, Clio sees an opportunity for house flipping content. Only, as the home makeover process begins, Clio discovers there might be some truth to her mother's claims. As memories resurface and Clio finally reads her mother's book, the presence in the house becomes more real, and more sinister, revealing ugly truths that threaten to shake Clio's beautiful life to its very foundation.

Dr. Michelle Peticolas, international bestselling author and award-winning filmmaker, reveals why some people stay stuck in grief for decades while others heal naturally. Discover how unprocessed emotions literally lodge in your cellular memory and learn the revolutionary SERVE framework that transforms grief from suffering into authentic self-discovery.What You'll LearnThe physiological difference between normal grief and complex griefWhy traditional therapy often fails for long-term grieversHow childhood survival patterns create people-pleasing behaviors that block authentic healingThe SERVE framework: a step-by-step system for releasing trapped emotionsReal transformation stories, including a client who healed from 20 years of grief in monthsSigns that indicate you may be experiencing complex griefKey TakeawaysUnderstanding Grief as Physiological Grief isn't just emotional—it's a whole-body experience that triggers biological survival responses. When unexpressed, these emotions literally lodge in your cells and emerge at unexpected times through triggers.The People-Pleasing Pattern Many who struggle with complex grief developed people-pleasing survival mechanisms in childhood. These patterns, formed to maintain conditional love, prevent authentic self-expression and proper emotional processing.The SERVE FrameworkS - Surrender to feelings and emotions (with proper support)E - Engage with supportive community (like elephants protecting their grieving)R - Reframe your story about the lossV - Vision for who you want to becomeE - Express your authentic self in the worldInstead of seeing grief as something to overcome, honor it as a testament to love. Use grief as fuel for awakening to your authentic self and life purpose.Dr. Michelle's WEBSITESend us a Text Message!

This sermon centers on God's perception of humanity's hearts and the resulting divine grief over widespread corruption, as depicted in Genesis 6. The speaker emphasizes that God's standards of good and evil transcend human subjective feelings and cultural norms, asserting that God alone accurately judges the intentions of the heart. Despite overwhelming wickedness, the narrative highlights Noah finding favor (grace) with God due to his faith and obedience, offering a solitary point of hope amidst impending judgment. The sermon concludes by linking this ancient account to the modern need for repentance and faith in Jesus, who is presented as the ultimate absorber of God's just wrath against sin.Support the showThanks for listening!

Dr. Cristi Bundukamara — known to her patients as Dr. B — is a psychiatric nurse practitioner and the founder of Mentally Strong, a behavioral health clinic in Colorado Springs, Colo.Combining decades of clinical expertise with her deeply personal experience, Dr. B helps people navigate grief, trauma, and loss through her innovative Mentally Strong Method, a practical framework for building resilience and reclaiming purpose after life's hardest moments.Dr. B's professional work is rooted in unimaginable personal loss. Over several years, she lost a child to an accidental drowning, two more children to a rare genetic disorder, and in 2024, her husband — who also had the disorder. Instead of allowing grief to define her, Dr. B turned her pain into purpose, creating both her clinic and a new approach to processing loss and trauma, where she blends her clinical knowledge with the raw reality of lived experience.

In this episode, I talk about what it really means to find peace when facing tough decisions. Recently, I was torn between attending my sister's milestone birthday celebration and staying home to comfort my daughter who needed me. Both were “good” choices, but ultimately, I chose alignment with my values—being present where I was most needed. Difficult decisions often force us to choose between equally meaningful paths. Whether it's deciding to stay or leave a marriage, how much truth to share with children, or when to seek therapy, peace often comes from aligning with what matters most—not from finding the “perfect” answer. Grief and peace can coexist, and learning to hold both allows us to move forward with confidence and compassion for ourselves. Takeaways: Peace often comes from alignment, not perfection. Hard decisions can hold both grief and relief. Listening to your values helps anchor your choices. True confidence grows when you honor your own inner knowing. If you're ready to create peace even in difficult decisions, I'd love to help you. Reach out and let's walk this journey together.
