First Man (2017) is a “documentary” with an interesting relationship to scientific facts and a disturbing view of human nature. It follows human evolution through four reconstructed ancestors: an early beta cuck ape from Spain; a Tate stan basal hominin from Chad; an ancestral alpha mogger from South Africa; and a brainmaxxing sigma arsonist from China. Join us as we break down the silly walks, unnecessarily blurred monkey genitals, and (content warning!) graphic sexual assault.

Some of the deepest grief we experience isn't losing a relationship. It's realizing the relationship can no longer carry what it once did. As we mature, we begin to recognize that love and trust are not the same thing. We can forgive someone, honor them, and still discern that they no longer have the capacity to steward our deepest confidence. In this episode of God's Vibes, we're talking about the quiet grief of relational change—what happens when wisdom invites us to adjust boundaries, steward our hearts, and honor what people consistently demonstrate rather than what we hope they'll become. We'll explore what Scripture teaches about guarding your heart, discerning patterns, and following Jesus' example of loving everyone while giving different levels of access based on purpose and trust. If you've been navigating disappointment, shifting friendships, leadership, or changing relationships, this conversation is an invitation to grieve with God instead of growing bitter. Sometimes maturity doesn't mean loving people less. It means stewarding your heart more wisely.     Experience transformation inside Courage Co.

We answer listener questions about the struggle of having sexual intimacy after miscarriage, grieving the long lack of intimacy, whether a wife should self-pleasure after her husband's betrayal shut down sex, and how to maintain sexual intimacy with adult kids living at home. Sponsor Join podcast co-host J. Parker and Brad & Kate Aldrich of Aldrich Ministries Coaching Network for a 7-day cruise starting Valentine's Day 2027! Click HERE to learn more about this opportunity to sail to better intimacy. From the Bible The Message Paraphrase of 1 Corinthians 7:3–6: Certainly—but only within a certain context. It's good for a man to have a wife, and for a woman to have a husband. Sexual drives are strong, but marriage is strong enough to contain them and provide for a balanced and fulfilling sexual life in a world of sexual disorder. The marriage bed must be a place of mutuality—the husband seeking to satisfy his wife, the wife seeking to satisfy her husband. Marriage is not a place to "stand up for your rights." Marriage is a decision to serve the other, whether in bed or out. Abstaining from sex is permissible for a period of time if you both agree to it, and if it's for the purposes of prayer and fasting—but only for such times. Then come back together again. Satan has an ingenious way of tempting us when we least expect it. I'm not, understand, commanding these periods of abstinence—only providing my best counsel if you should choose them.

This week on Agony Aunties, they answer a listener's heartfelt question about what happens when a relationship begins to feel different. After two and a half years together, her boyfriend seems less affectionate, leaving her questioning whether this is simply the natural evolution of long-term love or a sign that something deeper has changed. The Agony Aunties explore why we so often create stories in our minds before having the conversation we most need to have, how old attachment patterns can shape our fears in relationships, and why vulnerability - not mind-reading - is the key to real intimacy. They also share practical tools from Esther Perel, the Gottmans and Terry Real on bids for connection, love languages, and how to have difficult conversations with warmth rather than blame. If you've ever found yourself analysing texts, worrying you've become 'too much', or wondering how to reconnect with your partner, this episode is for you.

This episode of Agony Aunties tackles the emotional complexity of caring for an ageing parent when the relationship has always been difficult. Emily and Sophie respond to a listener whose 89-year-old mother's declining health has reignited painful childhood wounds, sibling conflict, and feelings of duty, resentment, and guilt. Together, they explore how old family dynamics resurface during times of crisis, the importance of setting boundaries, slowing down reactive communication, and seeking support through therapy, community, or practical caregiving tools. Their compassionate conversation is a reminder that it's possible to care for someone while also protecting yourself and that navigating these difficult moments with kindness, both towards others and yourself, is enough.

What does it look like to grieve without losing hope?In this deeply personal episode, Kyle and Kayla Conder share their journey through infertility, a failed adoption, the joy of bringing two adopted children home, and the heartbreaking loss of a miscarriage. They speak honestly about unanswered prayers, seasons of doubt, and the difficult questions that suffering often brings.More importantly, they share how God met them in their grief, reshaped their perspective, and taught them that hope isn't found in getting the outcome we want. It's found in the unchanging character of Christ.Whether you're walking through loss yourself or trying to help someone who is, this conversation is a reminder that grief and hope can exist together.

There was a time when I thought surviving a stillbirth meant I had already lived through the worst thing imaginable. Then I miscarried. In this episode, I'm sharing what I learned from experiencing a miscarriage after stillbirth—and why it challenged so much of what I thought I knew about grief, hope, healing, and myself. This isn't a chronological retelling of what happened. It's an honest conversation about the lessons that came from losing another baby: why you never become "used to" loss, how trauma changes the way your body experiences pregnancy, why hope can feel terrifying after heartbreak, and how rebuilding a life doesn't mean leaving your babies behind. Whether you've experienced miscarriage, stillbirth, infertility, or any kind of profound loss, I hope this episode reminds you that healing isn't linear, grief evolves, and it's possible to carry both heartbreak and hope at the same time. We'll talk about: • Why every pregnancy loss is different—even after stillbirth. • How trauma shapes future pregnancies and the waiting that comes with them. • The surprising ways grief changes over time. • Why protecting your heart isn't the same as giving up hope. • What rebuilding your life has taught me after losing two babies. If you've ever wondered whether you'll be able to hope again after loss, this episode is for you.   Find my NEW BOOK on Amazon!

In this week's Ask Me Anything, Ryan Michler and Kipp Sorensen tackle some of the toughest questions men face today. They discuss whether purpose is something you discover or build, how to find closure after losing a parent, and what it takes to save a struggling marriage before it's too late. They also talk about accountability between friends, rebuilding your life after alcohol, returning to faith, and introducing your children to difficult experiences like hunting without letting your own ego get in the way.

If you're a mom, a caregiver, a go-getter, or anyone moving through change, this is for the days when success looks like making it to bedtime and calling that sacred.We talk about tiny rituals as spiritual practice and realistic self-care. Not the fantasy of two uninterrupted hours, but the two-minute practices that bring you home: lighting a candle, making tea, watering a plant, stepping outside barefoot, taking five deep belly breaths, or putting your legs up the wall. I share how these micro-rituals build steadiness, protect your peace, and help you reorient when your nervous system is loud and your mind is spinning.Then we go deeper into community as medicine. I reflect on the kind of relationships that don't just validate you, but actually help you remember who you are. That also means grieving false belonging, noticing where familiarity isn't alignment, and trusting your nervous system before your thoughts catch up. We unpack expansion vs contraction, boundaries around gossip, and why nature is such a powerful teacher when you're tempted to hurry.If you're craving depth and ceremony, I also share details on the Beyond the Veil retreat (July 25 to 26 at Woodmont Day Camp in upstate New York) and what we're creating together with shamanic journeying, grief wisdom, and sacred space. Subscribe, share this with a friend who needs it, and leave a review so more listeners can find the show.✨ Three Elena TruthsYour nervous system often recognizes what belongs long before your mind catches up.Tiny daily rituals have the power to keep you connected to yourself when life won't make space for long spiritual practices.Every meaningful life requires grieving the relationships, expectations, and identities that no longer align with who you're becoming.

Am I grieving the right way? It's one of the most common questions grieving people ask themselves, often without ever saying it out loud. In this episode, Tim explores the myth that grief follows a timeline or a predictable path and explains why comparing your journey to someone else's can create unnecessary pain and self-doubt. Through personal reflections and insights gathered from years of bereavement group discussions, Tim offers reassurance that grief looks different for everyone—and that different does not mean wrong. If you've ever wondered whether you're talking too much, not enough, healing too slowly, or feeling the “wrong” emotions, this episode offers permission to trust your own grief journey and move forward with greater compassion for yourself.

The Agony Aunties are back, answering a listener's question about the pressures of parenting through the long summer holidays. Together, Sophie and Emily explore the guilt so many parents feel when they can't provide the picture-perfect summer they see elsewhere, why boredom may be far more valuable than we think, and how to help teenagers develop resilience, creativity and independence. They discuss the trap of comparison, the emotional challenge of watching your children struggle, and why being present and connected matters far more than keeping them constantly entertained.

I hate when people say we are "Overprotective"...No, that's not it. We are SUPER AWARE of what can happen. This means we know the potential outcomes, we take necessary steps to prevent, we know what we can control and what we can't, we have a plan in place if something bad happens, we are no longer ignorant. We are experienced....unwantingly so... We come from a loss lens. We see things differently now. We have had the unimaginable happen to us and to our babies. Now what? Well, now we look at things through awareness. We can read situations, people, things, ourselves, etc. I hate it here but here we are.  If you are navigating anything in this life, especially parenting after loss, I hope this helps.

After two people died in Atlanta's 1993 Midtown hotel sinkhole disaster, their immigrant families faced more than grief. One family had difficulty speaking English. Both struggled to understand where to turn. By the time attorneys became involved, many of the region's leading geotechnical experts had already been retained by the defense. Nick Moraitakis explains how the case began and why access to experienced legal counsel can matter so much when ordinary families confront powerful institutions and highly technical evidence.

Happy Mindful Monday! Have you ever found yourself completely exhausted from trying to force life back into an opportunity, a relationship, a timeline, or a version of a dream that you know deep down you've outgrown? In this episode, we are pulling a major millennial throwback and leveraging the ultimate wisdom of Hilary Duff's iconic track, "So Yesterday," to unpack a massive subconscious pattern. As high-achieving women, we are wired to complete tasks and hit goals. But sometimes, our greatest limitation is our inability to quit things that no longer serve us because we confuse "walking away" with "failing." We're diving deep into the psychology of letting go, learning how to differentiate between giving up and strategically outgrowing a chapter, and tapping into that potent, fresh-start energy. If you are standing at a crossroads, terrified of leaving behind what's comfortable even though your gut is screaming that it's time to fly away, this episode is your official permission slip to clear the space. Grab your tea or your matcha, find a cozy spot, and let's dive in!

This week on Agony Aunties, Julia, Emily and Sophie respond to a listener who has recently graduated but is struggling to feel proud of their achievement. Despite earning a good degree, comparisons with a high-achieving sibling and the pressure of perceived family expectations have left them feeling flat and unable to celebrate their success. Together, they explore the impact of comparison, perfectionism and internalised expectations, sharing practical tools for building self-worth, challenging critical inner voices and learning to recognise that being "good enough" is often more than enough.

Is it harder when someone dies suddenly, or when you know their death is coming?  It's a question that comes up often in grief spaces, and there's no easy answer. Both are hard - just in different ways.  In this episode, Aimee Craig talks about grieving the deaths of both of her parents under very different circumstances. Aimee's dad died suddenly when she was 23, during a season of major life transitions. Nearly two decades later, her mom died after living with cancer for many years, including five years with a terminal diagnosis.  Aimee reflects on how differently she experienced these losses - not just because of the circumstances of each death, but because of who she was at each point in her life. At 23, grief felt overwhelming and frightening. At 41, as a parent and longtime Dougy Center volunteer, she had more language and capacity for grief, even while navigating the difficult realities of caregiving and end-of-life decision making.  We explore the emotional and physical impact of sudden loss versus anticipated death, the complicated realities of caregiving, and the grief that comes with milestone moments, holidays, and parenting without the support and celebration of your own parents.  We also discuss what it means to actually witness grief and how having space to tell the truth without judgment or pressure to feel better - can help grief feel less isolating and a little easier to carry.  We discuss: Sudden death and the shock it can have on the body and nervous system  Grieving before someone dies and the realities of caregiving  How grief changes as we change over time  The pressure and complexity of end-of-life decisions Parenting while grieving your own parents  Mother's Day, Father's Day, and other significant days Why witnessing grief matters  How being grief aware doesn't make us immune to being caught off guard by grief If you're supporting someone who is grieving, or navigating grief yourself, this episode validates that there's no right or wrong way to feel in grief, no timeline for it, and that we can't measure grief by how someone died.  Check out Aimee's podcast, Who Died?

In this heartfelt solo episode, Michelle Bader Ebersole reflects on one of life's most bittersweet moments—watching her son, Payton, graduate high school without his dad there to witness it. As she navigates the mixture of pride, joy, and grief that often accompanies major life milestones after loss, Michelle shares personal stories, lessons from a recent women's retreat, and encouragement for anyone learning to carry both sorrow and hope.Drawing from her message on "Water Walking Faith," Michelle explores what it means to trust God when the future feels uncertain, allow grief to come in waves without fighting it, and embrace the beauty of life's meaningful moments even when they bring tears. Whether you're a widow, widower, or simply facing a season of change, this episode offers honest conversation, faith-filled encouragement, and a reminder that healing doesn't mean leaving your loved one behind—it means learning to move forward while carrying their love with you.For coaching, speaking, retreats, support groups, and grief resources, visit Michelle's Linktree and connect through the Widow Goals community.If this episode encouraged you, please subscribe, leave a review, and share it with someone who may need hope todayBook a free grief coaching consultation call with Michelle ⁠HERE⁠Join the Widow Goals Online Community and get Michelle's Widow Goals Course use code podcast for a free monthLearn More About Michelle's Widow Coaching Program HereClick Here to Register for the Widow Goals Fall RetreatClick HERE to learn about the Widow Goals Support Program Click HERE to order Michelle's book Widow Goals: Steps to Finding Peace When You Lose Your SpouseClick HERE to order the Widow Goals WorkbookClick HERE to order the Widow Goals Workbook Leader GuideClick HERE to apply to be a Widow Goals Group LeaderFollow Hayley's Parent Loss Goals Ministry Here on IG⁠⁠Here on FB⁠Click here to be sent an email on the anniversary of your spouse's passing, wedding anniversary, and more Click HERE to review Widow Goals on AmazonBook Michelle as a speakerGo here to see a list of all the areas we have Widow Goals Groups⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Click Here to apply to be a guest on Widowed 2 Soon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow Michelle on TikTok⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow me on Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/widowed2soon_/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/widowgoals⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠See my videos on Youtube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to our YouTube Channel⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

When someone we care about is grieving, many of us want to help—but often aren't sure how. In this episode, Tim explores the support grieving people actually need and why it is often far simpler than most people imagine. Through personal stories and reflections from his own journey, Tim discusses the importance of long-term support, the power of small gestures, and why presence matters more than perfect words. From practical acts of kindness during hospice care to friendships that continue showing up years after loss, this episode offers valuable insight for both grieving people and those who want to better understand their role in walking beside someone through the long road of grief. Because grief doesn't end after the funeral, and meaningful support doesn't have to either.

In 1 Samuel 25, David finds himself at a crossroads between wisdom and foolishness. Grieving the loss of Samuel and wounded by Nabal's insults, David is ready to take revenge into his own hands—until God uses the wisdom, humility, and courage of Abigail to stop him from making a devastating mistake. In this message, The Fool and the King, we discover that the same battle exists within each of us. Will we live according to the flesh, driven by anger, pride, and offense? Or will we surrender to the Spirit and choose humility, peace, and wisdom? Join us as we explore how God uses His people to speak truth into our lives and call out the kingly character He is forming within us.

By the time an adult child finally says “I'm done,” they have usually been deciding it for about three years. The parent almost never sees it coming. The child was never once surprised. On the other side, the pain and anger that comes when someone you love with all your heart and soul refuses to talk to you? It's as crushing as it is confusing. This episode is for anyone who has ever sat in the car outside a parent's house, bracing themselves before they walk in. And it is just as much for the parent staring at a phone that has gone quiet, replaying what they could have done differently. If your relationship with your parent, or with your grown kid, has started to feel like a careful performance instead of a real connection, you are not imagining it, and you are not stuck with it. If it feels like bridges have been burned, there is a way back. In this episode you'll learn about the small, respectful shifts that re-open lines of communication, rebuild trust, and develop an enduring v.2 for your relationship.
