When I was approached by Brett Aldrich's team, I wasn't quite sure how the conversation would go - if it would be something you would be interested in; but maybe this convo was more for me than you? I booked a visit with her, at least! You'll hear me fumble my way around what I thought Ayurveda was (clearly I'm wrong), but Brett's practice is absolutely fascinating to me! Did you know about Ayurveda before today?Brett's practice is located in Maine, but she offers virtual visits as well, which is how my appointment will be the day before this airs! She touched on the topic of elements, which I've never heard of (not like the table of elements), and I had too many questions to let it go - so I've got an hour and 1/2 with her to get caught up. To quote Brett: "Just as the earth is made up of natural elements, so are we." She also said this: "sustainability begins within ourselves."My takeaway: what we take into our bodies matters - it either helps or hinders, and if we understand that and take notice of our body's response, we may just have an easier go of life. That's not really new info to me, but the delivery was everything to me. I'm so looking forward to some extra time with Brett and learn about my elements, and how to live better with that info! I hope you learned something new in this conversation, too!You can find all things Brett here: https://seedthespirit.com/She's on Facebook here: https://www.facebook.com/p/Seed-The-Spirit-LLC-61575858674934/Send me a message!Support the showPlease follow Grounded In Maine podcast on Instagram here YouTube channel link is here You can DM me there or email me at amysgardenjam@gmail.com Website for Amy's Garden Jam is https://amysgardenjam.com/ (podcast has its own tab on this site!)

Richard Schwartz and Cece Sykes, who—along with Martha Sweezy— have recently co-authored a book on Internal Family Systems for Addictions. Richard is the Founder of the Internal Family Systems (IFS) Model, a pioneering approach to psychotherapy which can be used to treat a wide range of problems, including eating disorders, self harm, addiction, and trauma. Cece is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and IFS Senior Trainer with over thirty years of clinical experience working with individuals, couples and families, specialising in working with the effects of trauma and addiction. In this lively and wide-ranging discussion, we cover: — A basic intro to the IFS Model — The root causes of addiction from an IFS lens — Why IFS offers a highly effective treatment modality for addictive processes — Best practices for using IFS when treating addiction and also important things to avoid. And more. You can learn more about Cece's work at www.cecesykeslcsw.com and find out information about Dr Schwartz's upcoming IFS trainings by visiting www.ifs-institute.com. --- Cece Sykes, LCSW, ACSW; IFS Senior Trainer, US and international. Contributed to Levels 1 and 2 IFS training manuals and teaches L1 as well as L2 Trauma and Addiction. Cece has over thirty years of clinical experience working with individuals, couples and families, specializing in work with the effects of trauma and addiction. Her chapter on compassionate approaches to addictive process appears in IFS: Innovations and Elaborations, 2016, Routledge.

Cece lives and works in the city of Chicago. Richard Schwartz, PhD., began his career as a systemic family therapist and an academic. Grounded in systems thinking, Dr. Schwartz developed Internal Family Systems (IFS) in response to clients' descriptions of various parts within themselves. He focused on the relationships among these parts and noticed that there were systemic patterns to the way they were organized across clients. He also found that when the clients' parts felt safe and were allowed to relax, the clients would experience spontaneously the qualities of confidence, openness, and compassion that Dr. Schwartz came to call the Self. He found that when in that state of Self, clients would know how to heal their parts. A featured speaker for national professional organizations, Dr. Schwartz has published many books and over fifty articles about IFS.

The Worst Mass Shooting in U.S. History: A Retired Las Vegas Police Officer Shares His Story. On October 1, 2017, the world witnessed the deadliest mass shooting by a lone gunman in American history. More than 22,000 people were gathered for the Route 91 Harvest music festival on the Las Vegas Strip when gunfire erupted from the 32nd floor of the Mandalay Bay hotel. In just ten minutes, a 64-year-old attacker fired over 1,000 rounds into the crowd, killing 60 people and wounding hundreds more. The total number of injured would eventually rise to approximately 867 as panic swept through the venue. The powerful episode is streaming for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, and most every major Podcast platform. For many, the details of that night came through breaking news on Facebook, Instagram, and other social media platforms. But for the officers responding to the scene, including Retired Las Vegas Metro Police Captain Josh Bitsko, the horror unfolded in real time inside the hotel. Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. A Night That Changed Las Vegas Forever The shooter had meticulously prepared his vantage point: two adjoining suites, 24 firearms, thousands of rounds of ammunition, and high-capacity magazines. Fourteen of the rifles were .223-caliber semi-automatic weapons; others included .308-caliber rifles and a revolver. Investigators would later confirm that the gunman fired 1,058 rounds, 1,049 of them aimed toward the festival grounds from nearly 500 yards away.

Look for supporting articles about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . Shortly before the attack began at 10:05 p.m., a Mandalay Bay security guard discovered a barricaded door on the 32nd floor. Moments later, he was struck by gunfire through the shooter's door and was able to radio the hotel for help even while wounded. A maintenance worker also encountered the danger and helped relay the message: this was no routine call, someone was firing rapidly and indiscriminately. Meanwhile, concertgoers below initially mistook the gunfire for fireworks. But as bursts of 80 to 100 rounds echoed across the Las Vegas Village fairgrounds, panic set in. The crowd struggled to escape the fenced-in venue as bullets rained from above. Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and other podcast platforms. The shooter paused only briefly during reloads and while confronting the security guard. By 10:15 p.m., the gunfire had stopped. The suspect then turned his revolver on himself. Inside the 32nd Floor: Captain Josh Bitsko's Experience Amidst early confusion, reports of shots from multiple hotels, uncertainty about the shooter's position, police officers made their way to the Mandalay Bay. At 10:17 p.m., officers reached the 32nd floor. Guided by the wounded security guard, they began clearing rooms one by one while evacuating terrified guests. The Worst Mass Shooting in U.S. History: A Retired Las Vegas Police Officer Shares His Story. Retired Captain Josh Bitsko, then a sergeant, was one of the officers who ultimately breached the shooter's room. Between 10:26 and 10:30 p.m. Using explosives, Bitsko and his team entered Room 32–135, where they found the shooter deceased from a self-inflicted gunshot. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on their website , Apple Podcasts , Spotify and most major podcast platforms. Bitsko would later supervise another officer-involved shooting just weeks afterward, a separate critical incident involving a double-homicide suspect. Both events left lasting emotional impacts and deepened his understanding of trauma within law enforcement. Beyond the Headlines: Leadership, Trauma & Resilience Today, Josh Bitsko shares his experience through his book, The Courage to Live, an exploration of leadership under pressure, surviving trauma, and finding clarity in moments of chaos. In it, he opens up about the realities of critical incidents and the therapy journey that helped him process the weight of his police career. He also founded Bitsko Consulting, where he leads high-impact tabletop training designed to prepare agencies for real-world emergencies. His programs focus on communication, decision-making under stress, leadership development, and understanding operational gaps before the next crisis hits.

You're invited to pause and really behold what Christmas means. Isaiah 7:14 tells us that a virgin would conceive and give birth to a son called Immanuel, which means God with us. Today, we look at the birth of Jesus through the eyes of Joseph and Mary and the closed doors they faced in Bethlehem. Their story reminds us that God often arrives in the most unexpected places and invites us to open the door of our own hearts in return. Whether you are opening that door for the first time or opening it wider than before, this reflection will help you notice the God who knocks and who longs to be with you in every part of your life.Pursuing God with Gene Appel is designed to help you pursue God, build community, and unleash compassion.

You Don't Earn Being a Good Man: Reclaiming the Identity You Were Born With Authentic Men's Group (AMG) Podcast Blog Every man wonders quietly, "Am I actually a good man?" Most men won't say it out loud—but the question sits underneath their decisions, their relationships, their mistakes, and the way they carry themselves through life. For many, goodness feels fragile… like one wrong move can erase everything. Like your identity is something you perform into rather than something true about you. Most of us grew up earning approval, not building identity. This episode is about reclaiming the deeper truth already in you. It's about remembering something you were born with—not something you have to earn, prove, or achieve. The Good Man Statue: The Identity Beneath the Dirt Every man carries a statue inside him—the Good Man Statue. It's who he was long before he learned to toughen up, hide emotions, pretend he didn't need help, or perform to be accepted. It's the part of him that's strong, grounded, steady, and whole. It's the part that wants to love well, lead well, and live with integrity. But life has a way of throwing dirt on that statue. A mistake at 17 A failure at 25 A moment in marriage where you hurt someone you love Childhood messages that taught you you're only good when you behave Shame that stuck before you even understood the word Little by little, the statue gets covered. And at some point, you stop seeing it at all. You start believing the dirt is you. You start thinking, "Maybe I'm just not a good man." That's the lie almost every man in AMG has carried at some point. But here's the truth most men never hear: The dirt never replaces the statue—it only hides it. Your goodness doesn't disappear when you mess up. It doesn't get revoked when you fall short. It doesn't crumble when someone is disappointed in you. The Good Man Statue is still there, carved into the core of who you are. When a man believes he's broken or bad, he behaves like a man trying to outrun shame. When he remembers the statue underneath, he moves with presence and strength again. The work isn't becoming good. The work is brushing off the dirt. Every honest conversation… Every moment of accountability… Every time you say the hard thing out loud… Every moment another man says, "You're not alone"… Every time you offer yourself compassion instead of punishment… It clears a little more dirt. That's why AMG exists. Identity gets restored in circles—not isolation. And once a man sees the statue again, even for a moment, he shows up differently: For himself. For his partner. For his kids. For his community. He leads from identity—not insecurity. This is the identity work every man is hungry for: "I don't earn goodness. I remember it." SECTION 1 — What "Being a Good Man" Brings Up for Most Men For many men, the phrase "being a good man" triggers: Pressure — like being graded or silently measured Fear of messing up and losing your identity Feeling good only when you're achieving or productive Old messages: "Don't disappoint anyone" Shame that rewrites your story in seconds Humor that's not really humor: "If being a good man was a class, I'd be repeating it." Memories of trying to perform your way into worthiness Most men have learned to tie goodness to behavior—not identity. Which is why the Good Man Statue metaphor hits so deeply. SECTION 2 — Why Men Don't Believe They're Good Men Most men don't struggle with behavior as much as they struggle with identity. Here's why: 1. Childhood Scripts Be good. Be strong. Don't mess up. Approval was tied to obedience, not authenticity. Goodness felt conditional from day one. 2. Shame From Old Mistakes Men carry mistakes like permanent labels. Shame doesn't stick to behavior—it sticks to identity. 3. Performance-Based Worth Men are taught: "I am what I produce." Which means when performance drops, identity collapses. 4. Lack of Affirmation Most men have never heard: "You're solid. I see the good in you." Without strong mirrors, insecurity grows. 5. Comparison & Internal Criticism "You're behind." "You should be further along by now." Comparison erodes identity faster than failure. 6. Isolation Men rarely have spaces to be honest. Silence becomes the loudest critic. In every AMG group, men eventually say the same thing: "I thought I was the only one who felt this." Insight Men often lose identity faster than they lose self-control. Most issues aren't about discipline—they're about worth. Who Gets to Decide If You're a Good Man? This question sits at the center of most men's inner battles: "Who gets to decide if I'm a good man?" Most men assume the verdict belongs to: Their partner Their dad Their boss Their pastor Their ex Their mistakes Their success or failure When others hold the measuring stick, identity becomes unstable. You live reactive, defensive, and afraid of being "found out." **Here's the truth: No one else gets to declare whether you are a good man.** Others can reflect your goodness— But they can't define it. If your identity depends on external approval, it becomes rented, not rooted. And rented identity collapses the moment someone is disappointed in you. Grounded men don't outsource their identity. Healthy identity sounds like this: I listen to feedback. I take responsibility when I cause harm. I repair where needed. But I don't hand someone else the authority to define who I am. There's a difference between: Accountability: "I can own where I messed up." Identity: "My mistake is who I am." Other people's disappointment is not the authority on your goodness. Your goodness is already built into the Good Man Statue—solid and unshakeable. When a man reclaims his identity: Defensiveness softens Presence increases Integrity strengthens Courage grows Relationships feel safer Leadership becomes more grounded He stops trying to prove goodness and starts embodying it. The Final Truth: You Decide You decide if you are a good man. Not by earning it. But by returning to what's already true. Goodness isn't a vote. It's not a scoreboard. It's not something that can be taken away. Goodness is a state of being — a statue you were born with. Your work is simply to uncover what's already there. And that's the work we do, together, in AMG.

In this talk, given in the course of Franciscan University of Steubenville's 2013 Annual Conference on Christian Philosophy, I set out what could be St. Anselm's response to the guiding question of the conference: "Must Morality be Grounded on God". In typical Anselmian manner, I say, Yes and No, and go on to discuss how Anselm would envision the possibility of a purely secular de-Christianized morality on the basis of his moral theory, and explain reasons why for Anselm any adequate moral theory and practice would preclude such an approach. I focus on God as the ontological ground of value, contributions Christian revelation and reflection make to moral theory, and what ongoing practical engagement with God and the Christian community provides to moral practice.

PPPD (AKA: persistent postural perceptual dizziness) is a chronic form of dizziness which is very manageable. But everyone wants to know “is there a cure for PPPD?”  To get to that answer, we've got to go all the way back to the beginning to uncover why PPPD is happening in the first place.

Advent isn't just a countdown to presents—it's an invitation to slow down, number our days, and fix our hearts on Jesus. In this message, Pastor Landon kicks off the Advent season by contrasting “carnal Christmas” (hurry, hype, comparison, consumption) with an eternal, Kingdom-minded Christmas rooted in gratitude and purpose. Drawing from Psalm 90:12, Daniel 1 & 6, and Revelation 21, he shows how Daniel lived as a godly witness in a “Babylon” culture full of pressure, distraction, and compromise—much like ours today. Daniel had purpose in his heart, rhythms of prayer, and a lifestyle of gratitude, even under threat. Pastor Landon challenges us to do the same this December: to let gratitude “set the speed limit,” guard our hearts from carnal Christmas, and fuel natural evangelism as we share Jesus with neighbors, coworkers, and family. You'll hear practical ideas for: • Building simple daily habits (Scripture, prayer, gratitude) • Creating margin with holy “no's” so you can say holy “yes's” • Using Advent as a “tasting party” to remember the goodness of God • Turning a crowded December calendar into a consecrated mission field • Inviting others to encounter the hope of Jesus this Christmas Advent isn't about surviving December—it's about stewarding it well. Trade carnal Christmas for Kingdom Christmas: hearts grateful, habits grounded, and lives glowing with the good news of Jesus, who came… and is coming again. CometoFreedom.com

Fifteen years in Wicked collide with grief, queer joy and the quiet rituals that keep a performer brave eight shows a week.   With part two of the Wicked movie now in theaters, John Corella celebrates the moment by revisiting his conversation with Justin Wirick, a longtime dancer with the Broadway National Tour of Wicked. What begins as a lighthearted holiday replay opens into a layered, intimate look at creativity, identity, resilience and the emotional depth woven into performing the same show thousands of times.   Justin shares how ritual, presence and community have sustained him through the demands of touring life, the pressure of staying fresh onstage and the grief of losing his mother. He reflects on the ways Wicked mirrors the lived experiences of queer performers who spend years learning to celebrate the parts of themselves they once hid. This episode is a reminder that the courage to keep showing up for your art and for your truth is its own form of defying gravity.   Episode Breakdown: 00:00 Welcome and Wicked Movie Celebration 02:00 Justin Wirick on Nerves and Finding His Voice 05:30 Fifteen Years in Wicked and Touring Life 12:44 How Justin Finally Joined Wicked After Three Offers 17:41 Wicked Choreography: Stage vs Film 23:54 Justin's Rituals for Calming Nerves Before Every Show 37:04 Choosing Joy and Staying Fresh After Thousands of Performances 41:08 Performing Through Grief After Losing His Mom 41:25 Why Wicked Resonates With LGBTQ+ Audiences 54:32 Staying Kind and Grounded in a Tough Industry 01:04:15 Dance Lightning Round and Where to Follow Justin   Connect with Justin Wirick: Follow Justin on Instagram   Connect with John Corella: Follow Dance Dad with John Corella on Instagram Follow John on Instagram Join Dance Dad with John Corella on Patreon Visit John Corella's website Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm

A single breath can reset your whole day. We explore how to build steady attention by feeling one complete cycle of breathing—inhale, pause, exhale, pause—while softening the shoulders, easing the jaw, and letting judgment fall away. The practice is short, portable, and honest: no special gear, no perfect posture, just a relaxed yet alert stance and a willingness to notice what's already happening in your body.We start by setting up a supportive posture and tuning into contact points—feet on the floor, seat on the chair, hand on the belly—to make awareness tactile rather than abstract. From there, we shift into mindful breathing, tracking the visceral sensations that mark each phase of the breath. Instead of forcing a pace, we invite natural rhythm and curiosity, treating distractions and judgments as passing events. This small act of returning to the breath strengthens focus, regulates the nervous system, and builds emotional clarity without turning mindfulness into another performance.Practicality takes center stage. You can bring this one-cycle practice into real life: on a commute, while cooking dinner, waiting in line, or winding down for sleep. As you repeat it, continuity of attention grows, stress spikes resolve more quickly, and everyday decisions feel simpler because you're grounded in the present moment. We close by pointing to future tools that will layer onto this foundation—ways to broaden attention through the senses and make mindful awareness even more resilient throughout the week.Want more practices like this?

(Insight Meditation Society - Forest Refuge) A reflection on how boundless Metta naturally becomes gratitude and generosity. Grounded in early teachings, elemental presence, embodied practice, and the simple movement of a heart learning to give freely.

In this Season 5 finale of Persistence U with Lizbeth, Lizbeth shares a deeply personal reflection on generosity, survival, and why she is stepping back from weekly episodes to make space for writing, teaching, and other creative work. As she approaches the podcast's fifth anniversary, she looks back with gratitude at the listeners, guests, patrons, and community members who helped shape nearly five years of conversations about healing, persistence, and overcoming obstacles.Lizbeth recounts two times in her early life when she and her daughters were lifted up by strangers during the holidays. After leaving an abusive marriage, entering a shelter, and relying on food stamps and Section 8 housing, she was adopted by a holiday giving program that provided gifts, food, and a sense of dignity during a season that had otherwise felt heavy with fear and uncertainty. Years earlier, while pregnant and struggling under financial and emotional control, her friend Shelly arranged for anonymous support through her faith community. These acts of kindness, offered by people who never knew her name, helped restore hope during the most fragile years of her life.Those moments stayed with her. They were part of what fueled her determination to finish college, break cycles of poverty and violence, and raise her daughters in safety. They also shaped her belief that generosity—financial or otherwise—can change the trajectory of a family in ways the giver may never see.As the holiday season arrives and Season 5 concludes, Lizbeth encourages listeners to consider giving in whatever way they are able. Monetary donations to food banks, adopting a family through local programs, offering time or blood donation, or simply finding a way to lighten someone else's load may be the most meaningful gift of the season. Volunteering, she reminds listeners, is often both selfless and deeply restorative.Lizbeth also shares an important programming update. After nearly five years of producing Persistence U with a full roster of guests, she is pausing the guested format. The financial and time commitments are substantial, and she is ready to reclaim more space for writing, reading, teaching, and restorative quiet. This is not a goodbye. Persistence U will return with occasional, limited-series episodes. She simply needs time to breathe, create, and be present in her own life for a while.Listeners are encouraged to stay connected through heLizbeth's links Want to comment on the show?

In Part 2 of Unmapped Conversations, Lizbeth gathers five contributors from Unmapped: Solo Women Travelers on Bold Journeys of Healing, Resilience, and Self-Discovery to explore how travel shapes identity, courage, and connection. Guests include Kathy Kirkpatrick, Tammy Horvath, Phyllis Skoy, Kate Colbert, and Anne Buckley, each offering a unique perspective rooted in life experience, personal healing, and a determination to live with intention.Each contributor shares wisdom for women who want to travel but feel hesitant. From trusting that most people are kind, to saying yes more often, to carrying creature comforts, to recognizing that emotional safety begins long before a suitcase is packed, their insights offer reassurance and empowerment.This conversation also revisits why half of Unmapped's royalties support the YWCA of Knoxville and the Tennessee Valley. While the world offers beautiful possibilities, intimate partner violence remains a universal threat. Travel, self-trust, community, and awareness all play roles in building safer lives.Unmapped remains a reminder that healing, confidence, and connection often begin the moment a woman chooses to step toward something new.THREE KEY TAKEAWAYSYou will learn: • How women rebuild confidence through unexpected and intentional travel • Why saying yes to new experiences often leads to healing and expanded identity • How resilience grows when women trust themselves, seek community, and embrace possibility.Lizbeth's links Want to comment on the show?

What is God like?How does He respond when you do what's “right?”How does He respond when you do what's “wrong?”How does God feel about achievement?The answers to these questions shape a large amount of your relationship with God.They will also shape how you feel towards God, how you feel like God feels towards you, and therefore how much time you will WANT to spend with God.If you're like me, you've spent a lot of time feeling like God is much more “with you” when you're doing what's right vs when you're doing what's wrong.To me, that creates an unsafe relationship with God. One that's based on performance. And therefore, you won't want to spend that much time with Him.Now, I believe God is with me no matter what I'm doing. And, he encourages me to do things that will bring the most fulfillment… but is with me even if I don't.This has helped me feel much more safe with God, and so I like spending time with Him much more.Learn more in today's episode.Your relationship with God is the FOUNDATION to being Grounded in God.Watch on YouTube here.Dr. Mike P.S.

This conversation is a little heavier than most, but it's so important to talk about. I can honestly say I knew almost nothing about West Virginia before I came across these ladies, but I can't say that anymore. Julie Eisenberg and Babette Hogan are here to talk about their first documentary together that just debuted called Running for the Mountains. "This is about politics and keeping our water and air safe, requiring political action; and keeping West Virginia safe is of national importance. "Running for the Mountains" exposes some of the toxic structure that allows the polluting of our commons. Step up and into politics!" (Babette's words)I'm not going to try to describe the film; it's too complex (Babette said it in 1 sentence, but I didn't write it down), but I can say I honestly learned a ton about the WV lifestyle and people, and the direction the political climate has been heading, and it makes me both sad and scared - and also SO proud of those who are fighting. Babette and Julie have spent a good part of the last 15 years researching, following people and stories, and filming in WV, and they have seen a lot to have strong feelings about. I didn't finish the film the first time through- I literally turned my phone OFF because I got so mad. But I was expected to finish it, so I watched again. These ladies did a wonderful job of catching so many personalities and opinions through this film that you really feel protective of the people. And they need that, and deserve that. Super grateful for this education from Julie and Babette!   You can get all the info about, and get a link to watch Running for the Mountains here: https://www.runningforthemountains.com/Their Facebook page is here: https://www.facebook.com/R4M2024/Send me a message!Support the showPlease follow Grounded In Maine podcast on Instagram here YouTube channel link is here You can DM me there or email me at amysgardenjam@gmail.com Website for Amy's Garden Jam is https://amysgardenjam.com/ (podcast has its own tab on this site!)

This Christian Scripture meditation is the final episode in our 12-Step meditation journey. While the first 12 meditations followed the steps directly, this last one serves as a benediction—a blessing and prayer to carry with you as you continue your journey of transformation with God. Paul prayed Ephesians 3:16–21 over the church in Ephesus, and today we pray them for ourselves. They remind us that we are strengthened by the Spirit, rooted and grounded in love, and carried forward by God’s power to do more than we could ever ask or imagine. In this guided Lectio Divina meditation, you’ll be invited to: Trust God more deeply Thank Him for how He’s revealed His love to you Ask Him boldly for what you need Rest in the truth that He can do more than you could ask or think As you listen, may you be reminded that God’s love is your foundation, His Spirit is your strength, and His power is more than enough for whatever lies ahead. If this series has blessed you, would you take a moment to pass it on to someone else who might benefit?

Meditation Passage: Ephesians 3:16–21, NLTI pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources he will empower you with inner strength through his Spirit. Then Christ will make his home in your hearts as you trust in him. Your roots will grow down into God’s love and keep you strong. And may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is. May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God. Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think. Glory to him in the church and in Christ Jesus through all generations forever and ever! Amen.

Being grateful is a character trait that honors God and releases favor into your life. In episode 135, prepare to learn just how much gratitude increases multiplication in your life. Tune in as Dr. Brenda Caldwell teaches what it means to be grounded in gratitude.The HOPE Zone...where there's HOPE for every situation!

Host Melissa L. Jones sits down with Dr. Celeste Davis—public health educator, design strategist, and director of the Public Health Scholars Program at American University—for a thoughtful conversation on how food justice, public health, and community power shape one another in today's shifting landscape. Through her path as a bridge-builder, Dr. Celeste shares why food justice is rooted in dignity, culture, policy, labor, land, and the structures that determine who gets to thrive. She reflects on the possibilities and limits of policy, the importance of local action, and how design thinking and empathy can create systems that feel liberatory rather than transactional. Grounded in her work with emerging public health leaders, she offers a hopeful vision for collectively designing a more just and community-centered future.

In this episode, the conversation centers on the biblical calling for men to protect, honor, and care for the women God has placed in their lives—whether wives, daughters, sisters in Christ, or women within the community of faith. Grounded in a Christian worldview, the podcast emphasizes that protection is not simply a masculine instinct but a God-given responsibility modeled after Christ Himself.   Featuring Pastor Sonny Smith  At the BetterMan Michigan Conference 2025
