SHOW NOTES: On this show… we're exploring the sneaky ways we lose control—without even realizing we've handed it over. Have you ever found yourself doing something—again—and thinking, “Why do I keep doing this?” Maybe it's late-night scrolling, that one more drink, the need to say “yes” when you're screaming “no” inside. These patterns creep in, settle down, and before you know it, they've built a little nest in your life. We call them habits, but sometimes, they're more than that. Sometimes they're hangups, hurts, or full-blown addictions masquerading as routines. And here's the kicker—they don't just take up space; they slowly take the wheel. What if you're not as in control as you thought? What if what you think is manageable is actually managing you? Today, we're going deeper—not to shame or scold, but to shine a gentle light. Because denial is tricky. It whispers that you're fine, that it's not affecting anyone else. But the truth is, what controls you, changes you. It touches your relationships, your work, your peace. And the hardest part? Admitting it. Facing yourself in the mirror and saying, “This isn't working anymore.” But here's the good news: awareness is the first, most powerful step toward freedom. So today, we're cracking open the doors of truth with compassion, curiosity, and a roadmap to reclaiming your power. Before we can take control back, we have to understand what we're really dealing with. So let's break it down. Habit vs. Addiction A habit is something we do regularly, often without thinking—like brushing your teeth or making coffee first thing in the morning. Habits can be helpful, neutral, or harmful. They're built through repetition and reinforced by small rewards (hello, dopamine!). On the other hand, addiction takes things further. It's compulsive. It's often used to escape, numb, or gain relief. And it continues despite negative consequences. The line between habit and addiction can blur, especially when the habit becomes something we rely on emotionally or physically. Denial and Self-Deception Denial is a powerful defense mechanism. It protects us—from shame, fear, discomfort—but it also keeps us stuck. When we're in denial, we minimize, rationalize, or outright ignore what's happening. We say things like “It's not that bad,” “I can stop anytime,” or “It's not hurting anyone.” But these lies we tell ourselves can build a wall so thick that even when we're suffering, we can't admit we need help. The longer we stay there, the harder it is to see a way out. The Grief of Letting Go Yes, grief. Because even when we're giving up something toxic, we're still letting go of something familiar. This is where the Five Stages of Grief come into play: Denial – “This isn't a problem. I've got this under control.” Anger – “Why do I even have to deal with this? It's not fair.” Bargaining – “If I only do it on weekends, that's fine, right?” Depression – “I feel helpless. I'm tired of trying and failing.” Acceptance – “This is real, and I'm ready to do something about it.” We grieve because we're changing. We're letting go of the version of ourselves we thought we needed—and that's not easy. But it is powerful. The Invisible Impact Here's the truth: you don't live in a vacuum. Whatever is controlling you—whether it's overworking, people-pleasing, numbing, or isolating—it doesn't just affect you. It impacts your energy, your presence, your relationships, and your potential. The scary part? You might not even know the full extent until you start making a change. Habit vs Addiction: Understanding the Difference The 5 Stages of Grief and Addiction REWIRE YOUR BRAIN - Neuroscientist Explains How To Control Your Mind in MINUTES!   CHALLENGE: Name what's been silently calling the shots in your life—whether it's a habit, a hurt, or a hang-up—and meet it with honesty instead of avoidance. Then, take one small step toward releasing its grip, reminding yourself that you are not powerless, you are in progress.   I Know YOU Can Do It!

The Enemy Behind My Pain (I Peter 5:8-10): When we face suffering, we need to remember that the enemy wants to use our pain to draw us away from God. This enemy is not to be taken lightly. He desires to devour us. This message will make us more aware of Satan's intent to destroy us and how we can stand against his attacks.

Moody's downgrade of the United States' credit rating front and center this morning: Carl Quintanilla, Courtney Reagan, and David Faber kicked off the hour with fresh data – and discussed the move with Fundstrat's Tom Lee, who remains bullish on U.S. equities here.

Breaking Bad Habits Why are good habits hard to build—and bad ones hard to break? Real change doesn't come from trying harder but thinking differently. In this message, we unpack how repentance means seeing life through the lens of God's truth, not just feeling sorry.  We'll explore how grace transforms us from the inside out, why movement without mindset leads us back to old patterns, and how to break bad habits for good. You can fight battles tomorrow—or win the war today.  Titus 2:11-12 Discussion topics Icebreaker - What's one small habit (good or bad) that you know affects your day more than it should?  Titus 2:11–12 - “For the grace of God has appeared that offers salvation to all people. It teaches us to say ‘No' to ungodliness and worldly passions...” According to this passage, what role does grace play in our ability to change?  How is God's grace different from "trying harder" on our own?  Digging Deeper - How would you define real repentance after today's message?  In what areas of your life have you been trying to modify behavior without changing your thinking? Personal Reflection: Is there a habit you need to break or replace right now?  (You don't have to share specifics unless you're comfortable.)  What's one “cue” (place, time, mood, moment, or people) that triggers that habit?  Which practical step—Remove the Cue, Interrupt the Action, Replace the Routine—would be most helpful for you to focus on this week?  What is one small habit that you can start today?   Check out our other audio series and video playlists that can help you find Jesus in every moment and then discover what's next

Letting Go of our Hang-Ups What if what's holding you back isn't around you—but within you? In this message, we look at the internal hangups—old wounds, labels, and coping habits—that can keep us from fully stepping into God's plan. Through Saul's story in 1 Samuel 9–10, we see how insecurity and self-doubt can overshadow calling. From chasing donkeys to hiding in baggage, Saul's journey is a mirror for our own.  What if God has already called and equipped you—but you're still stuck behind old expectations? Let's talk about dropping the baggage and stepping into the life God's marked out for you. essage Description Book Chapter:Verse Discussion topics Question one. Question two. Question three. Question four. Check out our other audio series and video playlists that can help you find Jesus in every moment and then discover what's next

Healing Our Hurts What if your past pain is still shaping your future? This message is about healing—not just the obvious hurts, but the hidden wounds we carry through life. Betrayal, grief, disappointment, shame—these don't fade with time. But the cross and the empty tomb tell a better story. Jesus showed us the way: He acknowledged the hurt, let go of the right to retaliate, prayed for His enemies, made room for reconciliation, and trusted God with the outcome. If He carried our wounds to the cross and walked out of the grave—scars and all—maybe your pain has a purpose too. And maybe healing will start today.  Luke 23:26-56 Discussion topics Icebreaker - When you hear the word hurt, what's the first story, memory, or feeling that comes to mind?  Luke 22:44 – Jesus in the Garden - What does this moment teach us about acknowledging our pain instead of suppressing it?  Is there a hurt in your life that you've avoided naming or dealing with?  5 Steps to Healing - Of the 5 Steps to Healing shared in the sermon (Acknowledge the Hurt, Forfeit the Right to Punish, Pray for Them, Be Open to Reconciliation, Trust God with Your Future), Which step is hardest for you right now? Why?  Which one do you feel God is inviting you to take next?  From Pain to Purpose - Jesus rose with scars, not open wounds. What would it look like for your hurt to become a scar—no longer painful, but still purposeful?  Is there anyone in your Community Group that needs to take their next step by being water baptized?   Check out our other audio series and video playlists that can help you find Jesus in every moment and then discover what's next

The first week in this series, we talked about different hurts we've experienced. This week we explored habits and how we can break away from the various habits we have. We looked at Genesis 24 - 33 and what we can learn from the life of Jacob. There are three things that can help turn habits around: awareness of the habit, a fuller vision of what we do want if that habit wasn't in the way, and relationships with others that pull us forward to life beyond that habit we've created. 

We all face struggles—whether they're habits that hold us back, hurts that wound our hearts, or hang-ups that prevent us from living in the fullness of life. "Beyond the Struggle: Finding Lasting Freedom" is a powerful sermon series that dives into the journey of overcoming these challenges through the transformative power of Jesus Christ. In this series, we explore how to break free from destructive cycles, heal from emotional and spiritual wounds, and release the personal hang-ups that limit our potential. Together, we will uncover biblical truths that offer real freedom—freedom that lasts beyond momentary fixes, as Christ invites us into a life of wholeness, purpose, and peace.

This week Dave holds court on these 7 brutal barriers to success. Hang-Ups, Failing to Execute, Falling Short, Over-Complicating, Fear, Defeatist Attitudes and Bad Energy. Leaders MUST overcome these to succeed in the ever-evolving landscape of business in the year of our Lord - 2024.

The Church today struggles to navigate culture, practices, and personal faith! So where should followers of Christ land today on certain subjects? Today's episode features Alisa Childers, who will walk through what it looks like to discern common hang-ups that Christians are experiencing. Alisa Childers points back to scripture to reveal a Godly-centred structure to abide by when Christianity seems to be transforming all around us.

In this episode, CJ sits down with Dr. Julie Gurner, the author behind the Substack Ultra Successful, to explore how top CEOs, CFOs, and entrepreneurs manage their ambition, goals, and self-talk. They examine if being hard on yourself necessary for success and Dr. Gurner shares helpful reframes that can be used to overcome negative self-talk. The conversation delves into the concept of “haunting agitation,” a term she uses to describe the hunger and ambition driving high performers. Building on this, she introduces the idea of empirical guardrails to keep one's ambition in check. Dr. Gurner also breaks down the difference between “motivated” individuals and those who go “all in,” explaining how full commitment can lead to exponential growth. They touch on the surprising power of seemingly “boring” and discuss what the “build in public” movement gets wrong. Lastly, they talk about the art of saying no to opportunities that, while tempting, may distract you from your core focus.

To book a 1-1 session: https://calendly.com/cosmicdee/session?month=2024-09 Gemini Rising friends, let's be honest: August felt like a cosmic obstacle course. Thanks to our mischievous companion, Mercury, in retrograde, things have been more than a little off. For this Gemini Rising, it was like the universe threw a wrench into all that glorious momentum I had in July and early August. Mid-August hit, and bam – progress stalled. Sound familiar? You're not alone. Maybe we all felt this cosmic confusion last month as Mercury spun backward, throwing everything into disarray, PLUS the Saturn Jupiter square! Plans unraveled, emotions bubbled up, and even our most straightforward tasks felt like uphill battles. A fresh start before we head into the electrifying eclipse season this September. This two-week window opens a new chapter in our lives – one final act before the curtain falls on an old one. In this episode, I dive deep into how this retrograde impacted me personally (spoiler alert: it wasn't pretty), and how the universe is giving me a cosmic nudge into an exciting new adventure this September. I'll also talk about what this means for you creatively, emotionally, and spiritually. How are you feeling about it all? Are you ready to embrace the change, or are you still reeling from the whirlwind? Tune in as I share my experiences, laugh through the chaos, and explore how to turn these planetary shifts into opportunities. Spoiler: there's always a bright side, even when Mercury is out here causing mayhem! xoxo Dee

Holy Baby Bump, talk about the best sex of your life! In this week's story, journalist, essayist, and author Tracy Clark-Flory is eight months pregnant and the bigger her belly grows, the more distant she feels from her usual spank bank cravings. Should impending motherhood change her fantasies? In search of answers, Tracy interviews a whip wielding/childbearing dominatrix, a lactating cam model, and others who find being with child a powerful proposition. Her research - and a permanently plugged in Magic Wand - provide a new perspective on raging hormones, body image, and desire. #KnockedUp   Song: ‘Dirty Little Secret' (Jefferson Bergey)   About our Storyteller:   Tracy Clark-Flory is a journalist, essayist, and author of the memoir Want Me: A Sex Writer's Journey into the Heart of Desire (Penguin, 2021), an NPR best book of the year. New York Times bestselling author Rebecca Traister called Want Me “intimate, challenging, and so very smart… a gift.” Peggy Orenstein, author of the New York Times bestseller Girls & Sex, called it “crucially important.” Clark-Flory has written for Cosmopolitan, Elle, Esquire, Glamour, The Guardian, and The Washington Post, to name just a few.
