At 18, Maya Tiwari was given a death sentence — six months to live. Instead, she spent six months alone in the Vermont woods, and came back a different person entirely. That single decision set her on a path that led through 25 years as a Vedic monk, a pioneering role bringing Ayurveda to North America, and now, a new book calling women — and men — back to a power she says we've forgotten how to hold.In this conversation, Maya and Brian explore Shakti — the divine feminine primordial power — and Shiva, its masculine counterpart, and why she believes restoring balance between the two is the work of this moment, both individually and collectively. They talk about the patriarchal roots of Western religion, what it costs us to lose touch with the sacred feminine, and what it actually looks like to start reclaiming it.About Maya TiwariMaya Tiwari is a spiritual teacher, humanitarian, and the pioneer who introduced Ayurveda to North America. A cancer survivor and former Vedic monk, she is the author of several books, including her newest release, I Am Shakti. Her work centers on self-knowledge (Vedanta), the healing science of Ayurveda, and restoring the divine feminine and masculine to balance.

After losing her husband, Brian, Adrienne expected grief. What she didn't expect was how grief would slowly disconnect her from the people she loves.In this solo episode of We Didn't Plan for This, Adrienne shares the invisible weight of living in limbo—waiting on probate, facing financial uncertainty, carrying responsibilities that once belonged to two people, and waking up each day with more questions than answers. Every phone call becomes another reminder of what hasn't been resolved, making it harder and harder to reach out to the people who matter most.This isn't just a conversation about losing a spouse. It's about losing pieces of yourself along the way. The version of yourself who you were. If you've ever felt stuck in the waiting, overwhelmed by life's logistics, or quietly disappeared because you simply didn't have anything left to give, this episode is a reminder that you're not alone.If this episode resonates, please share it with someone who might need to hear it.

This week's episode begins with a discussion about Welcome to Wrexham that jumps to politics more broadly. We then play some listener voicemails about topics like gym saunas, football, and how Christians navigate the grieving process. We play a TikTok about how boring heaven will be, and then hear from another caller about how to deal with Elon Musk's wealth. We play a snippet of a conversation between Bill Maher and Joel Edgerton, and then conclude with another segment of "Pastor Jack's Off."

In this raw, unpolished conversation, Mark brings back best‑selling author, ultra‑runner, and "billion‑dollar strategist" Dan Waldschmidt for a deep dive into what he calls the "not yet zone" – the liminal hallway between who you were and who you're becoming. They go way past highlight reels and talk honestly about divorce, losing a parent, sleepless nights, and the heavy responsibility of leading people when you feel completely lost yourself. Dan shares what it's really like to step off the stage, go dark on social, buy a near‑bankrupt company, run it for years as CEO, and then hand the keys to someone else so he can face the question, "What's after Edgy?" He unpacks Misogi – choosing a seemingly impossible challenge on purpose and walks through his brutal 100‑mile race in the Florida Keys, where heat, dehydration, and a 7‑mile bridge turned finishing into a full-on spiritual battle. Together, Mark and Dan build a practical playbook for surviving the "in‑between": why you can't trust your 2 a.m. emotions, how movement changes your brain chemistry, where post‑traumatic growth comes from, the power of reaching out instead of isolating, and why small acts of generosity and sharing your story might be the very things that pull you through the forge. If you feel like you're stuck in a long hallway with no doors, this episode will remind you you're not crazy, you're not alone, and you're not done. https://www.linkedin.com/in/danielwaldschmidt/ Chapters: 00:00 – Intro: Mark, Dan & 10+ Years of Friendship Who Dan is, "Edgy Conversations" selling ~700k copies, billion‑dollar strategy work, and why he disappeared from the spotlight to build his own company. 07:10 – The Liminal "Not Yet" Zone & The Long Hallway Defining liminality, the "not yet zone," foggy seasons, and why most of life is spent between what was and what will be. 14:55 – Misogi & Ultra‑Running: Choosing Hard Things on Purpose Dan's 38,000 miles, 200‑mile races, 3,100‑mile goals, Misogi explained, and how his son's first half‑marathon changed his identity. 24:20 – Grief, Fog, and Not Trusting 2 A.M.

What if grief was not something to get over, but a bridge that leads you to your greatest transformation? In this powerful episode of From Betrayal to Breakthrough, Dr. Debi Silber sits down with Rosalind Price, known as The Grief Gangstress, for an honest, deeply human conversation about cumulative loss, the 5 grief archetypes, and how navigating grief with strategic intention can lead to profound personal transformation.  Rosalind Price has experienced grief from the age of four, losing her mother at 16, her father shortly after, members of her support system, and later her former husband. Rather than running from grief, she built an entire framework to move through it strategically, and now helps individuals and C-suite leaders do the same. She shares how grief is not a nemesis or an antagonist, but a bridge that reminds us we are the priority.  This episode will change the way you see grief. Whether you are healing from betrayal, loss, or a life-altering shift, Rosalind's 5 grief archetypes will help you understand where you are in your journey and how to move forward with intention and power.    Topics Covered:  How cumulative grief can feel like life itself has betrayed you, and why that feeling is valid  The critical difference between soldiering through grief and actually healing from it  Why the people around us sometimes unintentionally add to our grief instead of easing it  The 5 grief archetypes: Devoted Soldier, Seeker, Deep Diver, Expander, and Transformer, and how to identify which one you are  How grief shows up in the corporate world and what C-suite leaders can do to create space for it  Why speaking up for your needs during grief is not a burden, it is a gift to everyone around you  How grief and betrayal healing share the same emotional terrain and why Debi's audience will deeply relate  The relationship between love and grief: the bigger the love, the bigger the grief, and why that is actually a sign of your greatness  Rosalind's personal journey from lifelong loss to becoming The Grief Gangstress  Why grieving is the season and the bridge, and grief is the destination that reminds you that you are the priority    Resources Mentioned:  Grief Archetype Assessment Guide (FREE) — rrrichardprice.com/the-blueprint  The Five Stages of Betrayal Recovery — ThePBTInstitute.com  Post Betrayal Syndrome Assessment — ThePBTInstitute.com  Betrayal to Breakthrough Live — ThePBTInstitute.com/live    Connect with Rosalind Price:  Website: rrrichardprice.com  Free Grief Archetype Assessment Guide: rrrichardprice.com/the-blueprint  LinkedIn: Rosalind Price  Facebook: Rosalind Price / The Grief Gangstress  Instagram: Rosalind Price / The Grief Gangstress  Substack: Rosalind Price / The Grief Gangstress    Connect with Dr. Debi Silber:  Instagram: @debisilber  Website: ThePBTInstitute.com  Betrayal to Breakthrough Live — ThePBTInstitute.com/live  Bring Dr. Debi to your stage — ThePBTInstitute.com/speaking  Read the largest research study on betrayal ever conducted — ThePBTInstitute.com/state-of-betrayal-report

Today I'm going to pull my chair up close to yours. The way you would connect with a friend who came over to you, knowing that she's going to stay there for a while.  Because I want to tell you something true about myself and I have a feeling that by the end, you're going to find it true about you, too. Let me tell you what that math was. My mom was 46 years old when she died, I was 19. In a few days, I will turn 46 myself.  And then I keep going. I have another birthday and another one after that. I become older than my mother ever got to be. I walk right past her and she stays exactly where she was. Forty six. Forever. There is something strange about outliving the person who gave you your life. In my memory, she never ages. She is permanently the age I am about to be. And I'm the one who keeps moving. Carrying her forward into the years she never got to see for herself. It's the strangest, most tender math there is.  You just feel your way through it one day at a time. I've been carrying this loss for a long time now, and I've carried it from a lot of different chairs and years.   Time Stamps:   (1:50) Walking Past My Mother (4:18) Let Me Describe To You My Mom (10:27) Questions I'd Ask My Mom Today (15:15) Why I Share This With You ----------  Apply for SF Coaching Method  https://sarahfechter.ac-page.com/sfhq-cc Complimentary Health Content  https://sarahfechter.ac-page.com/Health_Wellness_Community ----------  Follow Me On Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/sarahfechter.ifbbpro/   Check Out My Website - https://www.sarahfechter.com ----------  This Podcast is for general informational purposes only and does not constitute the practice of medicine, nursing, other professional health care services, or any professional practice of any kind.

Grief doesn't follow a straight line. Some moments you're crying, and the next you're laughing. You might feel sadness, anger, frustration, gratitude, and even joy all in the same day. And that doesn't mean you're grieving wrong. ❤️In this deeply personal episode of Mindful Moments, Coach Delicia opens up about the recent loss of her grandmother, a woman who was more like a mother and best friend to her. As she navigates grief while also experiencing the joy of watching her baby grow, Delicia shares the powerful reminder that two seemingly opposite emotions can exist at the same time.She talks honestly about the impact grief has had on her sleep, appetite, energy, focus, and mental health, and why asking for help is never something to be ashamed of. From drinking enough water and getting outside to taking a shower, resting, reaching out to loved ones, and giving yourself permission to drop the "extra" things, Delicia shares the small ways she's learning to care for herself during a difficult season.Most importantly, this episode is a reminder that taking care of yourself during grief isn't selfish, and feeling joy doesn't mean you're disloyal to your pain. If you're navigating loss, stress, or a major life transition, give yourself permission to feel whatever comes up. You don't have to choose between grief and joy. Sometimes, you can hold both.And maybe today, take a moment to hug someone you love a little tighter and tell them what they mean to you. You never know how much that moment might come to mean.

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20260803dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good. His love endures forever. Psalm 136:1 His Love Endures Forever Many, if not most, psalms in the Bible were designed to be sung or spoken antiphonally—that is, the first half of each verse is sung by a leader or choir followed by the congregation responding with the second half. If you open your Bible to Psalm 136, you’ll notice that the second half of each of the 26 verses is exactly the same: “His love endures forever.” The entire psalm encourages us to give thanks to the Lord, the one true God, who powerfully created all things and who mercifully provides for his people. And with every mention of the Lord’s many mighty acts, the people interject the refrain: “His love endures forever.” And it’s not just in this psalm. The first time this phrase is found in the Bible is in 1 Chronicles 16, when King David is bringing the Ark of the Covenant to Jerusalem. The people sang and praised God with a psalm that included these same words. “Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his love endures forever.” A generation later, in 2 Chronicles 5, when King Solomon completed construction of the temple, a great number of musicians played while the choir sang praise to the Lord: “He is good; his love endures forever.” Someone might ask, “Why the repetition?” But consider why it is that we repeat anything. Usually, because it’s important or because we keep forgetting it—or in this case, both. The Hebrew word translated as love here calls to mind God’s loyalty and grace in dealing with us. Despite our frequent ingratitude and lack of love for God, he is unwaveringly devoted to his love for us, simply because of who he is. In everything he does—starting with the creation of the world, all the way through human history, right down to the way he watches over and provides for us today—God does it out of his commitment to love us. His promise of grace finds its fulfillment in his own Son, Jesus Christ, who came to save us from certain death by taking our punishment upon himself. It is truly a love that endures forever! Prayer: Lord God, you have been good to me in so many ways. Let me never forget your grace but always give you thanks, for your love endures forever. Amen. Daily Devotions is brought to you by WELS.

What do you do when everything you built is taken from you in a single storm? Almost no one thinks that question will ever land on them personally, and then one day it does. Pastor Brian preached this message to a congregation whose city had just been devastated by an EF3 tornado, and the answer he gave is one every person is going to need at some point.In this sermon, Pastor Brian opens with a hard truth. On July 27, 2026, an EF3 tornado over a mile wide touched down for more than twenty minutes and tore through the neighborhoods of Appleton, Menasha, and Neenah. Miraculously, no one was killed. But the loss will take generations to rebuild. And in a moment like that, everyone around you starts watching to see how you respond. Not because you asked for the spotlight, but because the world is quietly asking a question in every disaster. How do Christians handle storms?Pastor Brian says the answer is that Christians are different. Not weird. Different. Christians still grieve. Jesus himself grieved the death of Lazarus in John 11, even though he was minutes away from raising him. Grief is not weakness. It is honesty. But the way a Christian grieves is otherworldly, because our identity is anchored in a King whose kingdom is not of this world.Then Pastor Brian walks through two storms in Scripture that reframe everything. In Luke 8, Jesus calms the storm on the Sea of Galilee, and the disciples' response is not relief but fear, because they realize they had no idea who was in the boat with them. And in Matthew 27, at noon on the day Jesus was crucified, the sky went dark and Jesus cried out, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?" (Psalm 22:1). He names what the cross actually is. It is the storm that defines Christians. You and I were asleep in a sinking boat we did not even know we were in, and Jesus went into the water for us. We may not get every "why" answered on this side of glory. But we know the why of Jesus. His why was you.That is why Christians are different about home (we build houses, not homes, because only Jesus is home), different about neighbors (we can be generous because we gave up everything to Christ already), and different in storms (we do not have all the answers, but we have the God who understands the tears).Eight people gave their lives to Christ in the seven days after this tornado through Samaritan's Purse and community ministry. The house may fall. The eternal work never does.If you have been through a storm you cannot explain, or you are watching one right now, this teaching is for you.#AllianceChurch #SundaySermon #BibleTeaching #JesusSaves #ChristianFaith #ChurchOnline #WisconsinChurch #FaithThatMoves #HopeInJesus #SermonSeries #faith #jesus #god #christianity #christian #tornado #storm #hope #grief #church #gospel #wisconsin

Grief is something that we all end up having a some point in our lives. Most of us get through it as best as we can but we try not to dwell on it.For survivors of abuse we are challenged by sometimes having considerably more loss in our lives than most other people, but that doesn't mean that we are better at handling it.For some of us grief can be overwhelming and make us lose focus on what really matters in our lives.How do we honor our grief and still function and thrive. That is the challenge that we have especially if we try not to face it because we are afraid of it taking over our lives.We all go through grief so we might as well learn how to handle it.https://www.nolongerashamed.org/https://www.facebook.com/nolongerashamed.org/bolgerkevin@gmail.com

195 Funeral Planning, Grief, and Hospice: Bob Arrington on Why Celebrating a Life Matters Host Marie Betcher, a registered nurse and former hospice nurse, interviews Bob Arrington, NFDA spokesperson and longtime Tennessee funeral director, about how funeral service supports the grief journey and why planning matters. Arrington explains that families don't call a funeral director just to bury or cremate, but to begin adjusting to a "new normal," and that skipping any kind of service often makes grief harder for family and community. He encourages pausing to honor a life even with simple gatherings, and stresses that pre-planning (not necessarily pre-paying) reduces emotional stress by preventing loved ones from making major decisions in crisis. They discuss hospice as a major benefit that supports care and dying at home, grief resources through NFDA and Alan Wolfelt, the importance of individualized grief timelines, and NFDA's "Have the Talk of a Lifetime" conversation cards. 00:00 Welcome and Disclaimer 00:28 Meet Host Marie 00:41 Introducing Bob Arrington 02:47 Bob's Funeral Calling 03:59 Why Services Matter 08:57 Community Grief Ripples 11:53 Grief Support Resources 15:37 When Grief Becomes Physical 17:53 Funeral Process Explained 21:49 Preplanning Without Fear 27:45 Prepay vs Emotional Relief 31:05 Hospice and Final Takeaways 33:06 Contact and Closing https://www.nfda.org/ Link to Bob's episode "Death It's a Living" https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3573530/ https://www.nfda.org/your-business/business-resources/remembering-a-life/have-the-talk-of-a-lifetime/conversation-cards/ If you want to help, you can donate to help support Hospice Explained at the Buy me a Coffee link   https://www.buymeacoffee.com/Hospice  Hospice Explained Affiliates & Contact Information Buying from these Affilite links will help support this Podcast.  Maire introduces a partnership with Suzanne Mayer RN inventor of the  cloud9caresystem.com,  When patients remain in the same position for extended periods, they are at high risk of developing pressure injuries, commonly known as bedsores.

Amy Shark doesn't know how ended up here. Before the ARIA Awards, the platinum records and sold-out tours, there were years of cover gigs, day jobs, rejected demos and wondering whether it was finally time to give up. She came within days of walking away from music altogether before one song, Adore, changed everything. In this episode of No Filter, Amy joins Kate Langbroek for a deeply personal conversation about the fifteen years it took to become an 'overnight success', why she believes the universe had other plans for her, and what fame actually looks like once you've achieved everything you thought you wanted. She talks about growing up on the Gold Coast with young parents, the grandmother who believed in her before anyone else did, falling in love with her husband and manager Shane, navigating marriage inside the music industry, and the burnout that left her feeling as though she had nothing left to give. Amy also reflects on finding joy in songwriting again, making her fourth album Soft Pop, and why she's finally learnt that success isn't about constantly chasing the next milestone. This is a conversation about perseverance, creativity, love, grief and what happens when the dream you've spent your whole life chasing finally comes true. Amy Shark's new album Soft Pop is out now.

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20260802dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion Taking the five loaves and the two fish and looking up to heaven, [Jesus] gave thanks and broke the loaves. Then he gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the people. They all ate and were satisfied, and the disciples picked up twelve basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over. The number of those who ate was about five thousand men, besides women and children. Matthew 14:19-21 With Jesus There is Always More With Jesus, there is always more. More than five thousand people were fed with just five loaves and two fish. And there was more food left over than they had at the beginning. This miracle is a big deal. Other than Jesus’ resurrection from the dead, it’s the only miracle recorded in all four gospels. The repetition means Jesus really wants us to know about it. Why? Jesus teaches us to pray, “Give us this day our daily bread” (Matthew 6:11). In other words, Christians are to trust God to provide. And what Jesus teaches, he demonstrates by feeding the five thousand. He takes care of us and provides everything we need. This is a simple lesson to learn, but it is difficult to believe. Your sinful nature wants you to think that you take care of yourself. The devil does not want you to trust God. He wants you to trust yourself and say, “My power and the strength of my hands have produced this wealth for me” (Deuteronomy 8:17). But is that true? Who gives you time to work? Who gives you the strength to work? Who gives you the skills to work? “Remember the LORD your God, for it is he who gives you the ability to produce wealth” (Deuteronomy 8:18). Jesus doesn’t work miracles to flaunt his power. He works miracles to show that he is God Almighty in human flesh. Jesus gives health and wealth because that is what Jesus does—he gives. He provides his life, death, and resurrection for your salvation. If he can do that, he can do something as simple as provide daily bread. Because with Jesus, there is always more. Jesus’ compassion for you knows no bounds. No need is too impossible for Christ to meet. No sin is too big for Jesus to forgive. You can trust him with anything and everything! Prayer: Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his mercy endures forever. Amen. Daily Devotions is brought to you by WELS.

What is the difference between having goals and living from aspiration? How do we respond when fear takes over? What if self-compassion feels impossible? How do we forgive ourselves, navigate profound grief, heal from trauma, or rediscover joy in practice? In this first Ask Me Anything session, Tara responds to heartfelt questions from our global community, exploring many of the challenges that touch us most deeply. Together we investigate how mindfulness and compassion help us meet fear, shame, loss, trauma, illness, and uncertainty—not by escaping our experience, but by discovering the awareness and love that can hold it all. These reflections are offered as practical guidance and as an invitation to trust the innate wisdom and tenderness that live within each of us.

Most weekends, he skipped the highways and wandered back roads, searching for abandoned farmhouses, forgotten cemeteries, and places where time had quietly taken over. Most of them were exactly what they appeared to be—empty reminders of lives long since forgotten.Then he followed an overgrown trail to the crumbling remains of a stone house hidden deep in the woods.Before he ever saw anyone, he felt it. An overwhelming sadness unlike anything he'd experienced before, as though the land itself was holding onto a memory it couldn't let go. Moments later, he caught sight of a solitary man standing outside the ruins...only for him to disappear without a trace.Days later, an old photograph would leave him wondering if some people ever truly leave the places they loved most.#GhostStory #RealGhostStories #Paranormal #Apparition #Hauntings #ParanormalPodcast #HauntedHistory #AbandonedPlaces #ForgottenHomes #SupernaturalLove real ghost stories?

Finally, after months of speculation, some of it good, some of it wild and irresponsible, we get to watch both the Prosecution and Defense make their arguments on submission of evidence.

Grief isn't always about death. Sometimes it's the quiet (or loud) loss of a season, an identity, a dream, a job, or a version of yourself that no longer fits. In Episode 605, we continue the conversation from Episode 604 about how it's possible to grieve what you've lost while embracing what you're becoming. Give yourself permission to grieve, while also giving yourself another chance to grow.FILL OUT THE PODCAST SURVEY HERE: https://forms.gle/adxbnMAeejfApM1T7Join my email list: spiritualhomegirl.ck.page/emailSubscribe to Spiritual Homegirl's YouTube here: https://m.youtube.com/channel/UClfzaF9Vr-xEPh9WBaEBhww?sub_confirmation=1Follow me on IG: https://www.instagram.com/spiritualhomegirl/Follow Make Peace With the Day: https://instagram.com/makepeacewiththedayCheck me out on Facebook: https://m.facebook.com/SpiritualHomegirl/Disclaimer: This podcast is for educational and entertainment purposes only.

Does Anyone Still Remember? Grief When the World Moves On It's been months now. Maybe longer. And somewhere along the way, the calls slowed. The check-ins stopped. Everyone went back to their normal — while you were left in a world that will never be normal again. This episode is for the mother who feels forgotten. Who has stopped saying her child's name out loud because no one else does anymore. Who carries the missing, mostly alone now. There's one verse that speaks straight into that loneliness — and it says the thing you've needed someone to say: you have not been forgotten. In this episode, you'll discover...

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20260801dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion [Jesus said] “The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field. When a man found it, he hid it again, and then in his joy went and sold all he had and bought that field. Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant looking for fine pearls. When he found one of great value, he went away and sold everything he had and bought it.” Matthew 13:44-46 Treasure Discovering a hidden treasure is a common dream. Wouldn’t it be great to instantly be wealthy beyond anything you could have imagined? In the first story of today’s Bible reading, Jesus tells us about someone who, finds buried treasure. In ancient times, rich people were known to divide their wealth into three parts: one for doing business, another converted to precious stones with which to flee, and, if necessary, a third part to be buried in a safe place. So, it could happen that when a rich man died, his buried wealth would remain to be found by some fortunate individual. In the second brief story, Jesus speaks of a pearl merchant whose life’s mission was to seek out exceptional pearls and obtain them. Some tirelessly seek treasure, and others just fortunately find it. But the most valuable treasure is that which Jesus has for us. This treasure Jesus tells us is the “kingdom of heaven.” The kingdom is Jesus’ rule in our hearts by faith. When Jesus rules our hearts, when our faith is in him, then we have the treasure of the forgiveness of sins, spiritual life, and eternal salvation—we will enjoy the glories of heaven forever. Still, we don’t have to wait to enjoy this precious treasure. With faith in Jesus comes the peace of knowing we are God’s dear children right now, the hope of present certainty for a blessed future, and the joy of knowing God loves us today, tomorrow, and always. So, whether you stumble upon earthly treasure or spend your life seeking after it, what really matters is that you have the treasure of Jesus. It’s worth giving up everything to make it your own. Prayer: Lord, lead us to the treasure that is Jesus and help us to treasure that treasure above all things. Amen. Daily Devotions is brought to you by WELS.

Dolly Parton Biography Flash a weekly Biography. In the past few days, Dolly Partons story has been dominated by a deeply personal loss that will resonate in any future biography. Multiple outlets including Page Six, Fox 17 Nashville, Yahoo Entertainment, and the Daily Mail report that her older brother Coy “Denver” Parton died at age 82 in Sevierville, Tennessee, on July 23, with an obituary from Atchley Funeral Home confirming the details and noting that no cause of death has been made public. This follows the March 2025 death of her husband Carl Dean, also 82, and earlier losses of brothers David and Randy, marking an extraordinarily painful chapter of compounded grief in her later years. Reports note the family plans a private memorial, underscoring how Dolly continues to guard some aspects of her mourning from public view. From a long term biographical lens, this cluster of family deaths, combined with her own health struggles, is likely to frame the narrative of Dolly's eighties as an era of resilience under pressure. Page Six and The List recap that over the past year she has battled kidney stone complications and other issues serious enough to cancel her Las Vegas residency and even miss her 80th birthday celebration at the Grand Ole Opry, despite publicly insisting she is “responding really well to meds and treatments” and “improving every day.” More speculative outlets like RadarOnline and NewsBreak claim she feels isolated at her Tennessee ranch and is “trapped” by health woes; these stories rely on unnamed “insiders” and should be treated as unconfirmed gossip rather than verified fact. On the business and public appearance front, Dolly is still very much in motion. Local Knoxville coverage and Dollywoods own advisories report that she is scheduled to appear at Dollywood on August 14 for the dedication of NightFlight Expedition, the parks most expensive ride to date, a first of its kind attraction that fits neatly into her broader legacy as a theme park and tourism mogul. In June, major outlets including The Washington Post and Fox 17 highlighted her surprise, physically fragile but smiling appearance at the grand opening of Dolly's Tennessean Travel Stop in Cornersville, Tennessee, a new chain style travel stop that expands her brand from music and books into roadside hospitality. Creatively, The List and Broadway.com note she is producing “Dolly: A True Original Musical” for Broadway, slated to open later this year, a biographical stage work that will literally codify her life story in another medium and is likely to be a major long term pillar of how future generations encounter Dolly Parton. Social media from her business ventures continues to share upbeat posts tied to the truck stop and the musical, though her personal accounts have remained notably quiet on Coy's death, suggesting she is grieving off line even as the brand machine rolls on. That's the latest chapter in the life of Dolly Parton.

When no one seems to be listening, how far do you go to be heard? In December 2008, George W. Bush made a surprise visit to Baghdad for a press conference. And at the very end of his remarks, a shoe came flying past his head.  It was “the shoe heard around the world,” and countless jokes and memes ensued.  But in the pandemonium, many missed the story of the man at the center: Muntadhar Al-Zaidi, a weary journalist trying to get the world to see the Iraq War in a different light. Even fewer people know what happened to him after.  Nearly two decades later, Radiolab reporter Sarah Qari tracked Al-Zaidi down to learn the story of his life. What she found was a story about grief, anger, and the line where journalism ends and protest begins. Special thanks to Azmat Khan and Mustafa Salim.

When it comes to children and grief, there's a lot we misunderstand. Adults might think they are either resilient and unaffected, too young to understand, or irreparably broken by the death of someone in their life. In reality though, their experiences of grief can be just as profound and complex as those of the adults around them.  In this episode of Grief Out Loud, Jana talks with Certified Child Life Specialist Jessica Correnti about what children actually need when someone they love dies. Drawing from more than a decade of working in pediatric hospitals and her private practice, Kids Grief Support, Jessica offers practical ways adults can help children understand death, express their feelings, and develop lifelong coping skills.   Jessica also shares the personal story of going through several miscarriages and the stillbirth of her daughter Maggie. She reflects on how her professional knowledge as a child life specialist shaped the way she and her family included their toddler son in meeting Maggie, how they continue to keep Maggie woven into everyday family life, and why simple, honest conversations help children carry grief over time rather than "move on" from it.   We discuss: What child life specialists do and why every family facing illness, injury, or death could benefit from their support.   How Jessica's own experiences with pregnancy loss transformed her understanding of grief.   Why "at least..." statements often leave people feeling more isolated.   How to prepare children for difficult experiences using clear, concrete language grounded in the 5 senses.   Why grief conversations don't need to be one big talk but can unfold through hundreds of small moments over time.   Why children aren't just naturally resilient, but need support to become resilient.  How coping strategies evolve throughout grief, for both children and adults.   The ways Jessica continues to parent Maggie through her work, writing, and advocacy.   Jessica is the founder of Kids Grief Support and author of The ABCs of Grief children's book series, resources that help children and families better understand grief, emotions, and coping.  Learn more about Dougy Center's grief education & training offerings: https://www.dougy.org/professionals-trainings

What happens when a father loses a child to abortion—but is told his grief doesn't matter? Dr. Jennifer Roback Morse discusses the powerful story of Sean Corcoran, who was 19 when his girlfriend became pregnant. Sean wanted to care for their child, and his parents even offered to adopt the baby, but the abortion went forward. In the aftermath, he found little acknowledgment or support for his grief. Dr. Morse explores what Sean's experience reveals about abortion, fatherhood, masculinity, and a culture that often overlooks the emotional impact abortion can have on men. The conversation also examines the broader consequences of dismissing grief and denying the importance of the bonds between parents and children.

Grief is... Real. Big. Better Shared Episode #54 Baptist Centers For Good Grief 

This episode is for anyone quietly mourning a version of their life that didn't happen — the relationship, the path, the self they thought they'd be by now. We're naming a grief that rarely gets acknowledged, and exploring what it actually takes to step into the life you have. Ready to break the cycle for good? If this episode resonated with you, there's something you need to try next…

Episode Description "Sometimes the hardest goodbye isn't to a person. It's to the life you built." In this episode of Grieve That Sh!t, Sharon Brubaker, grief specialist and founder of The Grief School, sits down with senior transition specialist Felicia Tausig for an eye-opening conversation about one of the most overlooked forms of grief: leaving the home you've built a lifetime of memories in. When we think about grief, we often think about death. But grief also shows up when life changes. When it's time to downsize. When a diagnosis changes the future. When a spouse is no longer there. When the family home no longer fits the next season of life. Together, Sharon and Felicia explore the emotional side of downsizing, why seniors often struggle to let go of possessions, and how every room, photograph, and keepsake tells a story worth honoring. They also discuss how adult children can better support their parents through these transitions, why patience matters, and how memories don't live inside our belongings. They live inside us. This episode is a powerful reminder that letting go of a house doesn't mean letting go of a life. Because home isn't just a place. It's the love, memories, and relationships you carry with you. What You'll Learn in This Episode Why downsizing can be a profound grieving experience The emotional attachment seniors have to their homes and belongings How adult children can support parents through major life transitions Why every keepsake tells a story Practical ways to honor memories without keeping every possession How grief shows up during retirement, aging, and changing seasons of life Why patience and compassion matter during transitions How creating new routines helps ease the emotional adjustment Questions to Sit With After Listening What memories am I holding onto through my possessions? How can I honor my past while embracing my next chapter? Am I giving myself or my loved one permission to grieve this transition? What does "home" truly mean to me? Homework for You Choose one meaningful item in your home. Take a photo of it. Write down the story behind it and why it matters to you. Then ask yourself: "Is it the object I'm holding onto... or the memory?" Because memories don't disappear when things do. They continue to live in the stories we tell and the people we share them with. Resources + Next Steps

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20260731dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion [Jesus said] “The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field. When a man found it, he hid it again, and then in his joy went and sold all he had and bought that field.” Matthew 13:44 The Treasure A man by the name of Edward Doheny [pronounced Doh-HEE-nee] has just arrived in California. The year is 1892. Doheny is a drifter. He’s worked as a mule driver, a fruit packer, and even a singing waiter. But nothing has panned out. His financial future looks grim. One day, you’re walking through town and see a strange thing. You see Doheny digging a hole with a pick and a shovel. Turns out he’s put down all the money he can on some vacant lot just so he can dig there. You roll your eyes. You think to yourself, “I guess desperate drifters do desperate things.” You keep walking. But desperate drifter Edward Doheny knows something you do not know. He spotted a black, thick goo seeping up into this vacant lot. He also has a hunch that people will soon pay money for this thick goo. He’s right. Here, on this lot, he strikes oil. He sets up his first oil well—the first of many. As a result, Edward Doheny becomes one of the wealthiest men in the world. Jesus tells a similar story: A man finds a hidden treasure in a field. When he does, he sells all he has to buy that field. Think about that for a moment. Imagine what his friends and neighbors are thinking. Imagine how silly and foolish they presume he is—how skewed and confused his priorities appear. But he knows something they do not know. He knows about the treasure. Which brings us to your life and mine. The culture around us may often smirk at us in polite contempt. In a society where pleasure, money, recognition, entertainment, and power are the stuff of life, the priorities of a Christian often seem quaint, clueless, even stupid. But we know something others do not yet know. We know about the treasure. We know about Jesus. We know about the priceless riches of forgiveness, peace, purpose, security, and meaning we possess in him. In addition, we know this treasure lasts not only for this life; it is eternal. Prayer: Jesus, priceless treasure, keep me close to you. Amen. Daily Devotions is brought to you by WELS.

In this Huberman Lab Essentials episode, my guest is Jocko Willink, a retired U.S. Navy SEAL officer, author and host of the Jocko Podcast. We discuss why discipline, rather than motivation, is the reliable driver of daily action, and how taking action is the most effective way to move through adversity, loss and setbacks. We also discuss how exercise generates energy, the leader's role as a counterweight to team morale, and detachment as a trainable skill for widening perspective and making better decisions under stress.
