Pope Leo's new encyclical, Magnifica Humanitas, includes two striking Biblical images, the construction of the tower of Babel and the rebuilding of Jerusalem. The fact that he presents the City of Man and the City of God as two realities under construction is very striking, and worth thinking on. This episode doesn't begin to exhaust the images, but it hopefully prompts more reflection!

What is the difference between a nice guy and a good man? And why do women struggle in a relationship with nice guys?Josh Trent welcomes Kelvin Davis to the Wellness + Wisdom Podcast, episode 823, to explore why performative niceness quietly poisons every relationship it touches, what it takes for a man to stop seeking approval and start leading from his values, and why the courage to tell the truth (even the ugliest parts) is the only thing that sets a man free.In This Episode, Kelvin Davis Uncovers:(01:07) The Hidden Self-Sabotage of Being a Nice Guy(06:00) Niceness as a Survival Strategy(09:26) The Single Most Important Question(13:52) The Buffalo and the Cow(17:44) When Criticism Is a Gift(20:57) What a Good Man Actually Is(25:00) "Happy Wife, Happy Life" Is Bullshit(32:00) Control VS Leadership(39:37) Teaching Black Boys to Become Good Men(47:40) Life Is Not Fair for Men...

A recent article in The Atlantic thoughtfully asked what makes Americans so unhappy. It looked at conflicting economic data (the delta between sentiment and actual economic conditions) and pondered what may be going on to make Americans feel so lousy about the economy. In this episode of Capital Record, David suggests that there are a few different things going on, and they all point to issues near and dear to our hearts.    Show Notes: Atlantic articleThe Secret to a Happy Life (Commencement speech) Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Dietrich von Hildebrand, in The Roots of Moral Evil, mostly discusses pride and concupiscence. But there's a funny little chapter in the back on the book on immanent logic, and getting stuck inside an activity to the point of immorality. Once you see the trap, it's easy to see how we can get caught up in it for an hour, or a day, or a lifetime. Worth a listen!

WOW!!!

“Send Coach John a message”I found something that got me thinking, reflecting, smiling and yes, having a few tears. It came from liminal (@Liminal1988) where they shared this post:  “A happy life doesn't consist of just happy moments, it is a mixture of both the happy and the sad.  There will be good times - when you laugh with your friends until your cheeks are read and your stomach hurts, trips to the park and the zoo, shopping and late-night ice-cream runs, and private jokes and notes passed in class, and every little prank that you play. There will be long lazy days spent at the beach as you dip into the ocean just as the sun sets, and holidays to countries with tender sand and warmth in the air, and nights you spend indoors with your family wrapped around you and the comforting days that you spend alone. ~ Ruby Dhal, (author of The Path to Self-love.)  Each item in this post got me thinking about many things throughout my life. In fact when I typed this out, I got to thinking about other things too.  So many things reminded me that I have had a happy life so far AND I plan to choose to continue to have more of a happy life too as I get older.  I sincerely hope this helps you to connect with having a happy life too.   Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. **

What happens when one partner feels fully invested in the relationship while the other feels unseen?In Episode 2 of Cooley & The Gang, the conversation starts with a simple observation: a relationship book for wives was sold out, while the companion book for husbands was still sitting on the shelf. That question sparks a deeper discussion about effort, communication, emotional presence, and whether men and women invest differently in relationships.The Gang debates:• Are women more invested in relationships than men?• Is showing up enough, or do you have to be fully present?• Why do couples often wait until there's a problem before doing the work?• Has social media changed expectations in modern relationships?• Is "Happy Wife, Happy Life" outdated?• Is love enough to sustain a relationship?From marriage and dating to personal growth and communication, this episode delivers honest perspectives, real-life experiences, and plenty of moments that will make you rethink what investment in a relationship truly looks like.

Happiness might be the most expensive word in the English language. We chase it, buy things in its name, and rearrange our lives trying to get closer to it. In this episode, I sit down with Erin Port, author of Tiny Tweaks, Happy Life, and we talk about why the big overhaul never works, why happiness guideposts are key, and where to start when you're so depleted you're not even sure what makes you happy anymore.

Pastor Chas Stevenson

Episode 2997: Kathleen Coxwell emphasizes that the most meaningful inheritance isn't wealth, but the financial values that shape how it's used. By teaching principles like earning, investing, credit, and purposeful work, you can equip your heirs with the mindset to build lasting success. These lessons offer a roadmap for raising financially capable, thoughtful individuals who can sustain and grow any legacy. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.boldin.com/retirement/passing-on-financial-values-to-your-heirs/ Quotes to ponder: "The best inheritance is the set of financial values that teach respect for money." “Enough money so that they would feel they could do anything, but not so much that they could do nothing.” "Give a man a fish and he eats for a day; teach a man to fish, and he'll eat for a lifetime."

If you're going through something difficult take courage from this quote that came across my path last week. "Most troubles are not as black as they seem if you pull them into the sunshine and shine the light on them." - Robert Alden. Here's yet another quote that came across my path while playing a game on my phone. “A single Sunbeam is enough to drive away many shadows.” St Francis of Assisi (as well as my Word Cookies game). The sun is so good for us in so many ways.

On this episode of the Live Greatly podcast, Kristel Bauer sits down with behavioral scientist and author Leidy Klotz to explore how your environment shapes your mindset, relationships, and ability to perform at your best. Drawing from his new book, In a Good Place, Leidy shares how the spaces we live and work in can either support or limit our growth, connection, and sense of purpose—often in ways we don't consciously recognize. Kristel and Leidy dive into how small shifts in your surroundings can create meaningful changes in your habits, confidence, and overall well-being. They also explore how your perspective and choices within different environments can influence how you show up in your work and life. If you're looking to elevate your energy, strengthen your relationships, and create conditions that support sustainable high performance, this conversation offers a powerful new lens. Key Takeaways: How your physical environment influences your mindset and behavior Why certain spaces spark connection—and others shut it down How navigating new environments can enhance learning and growth Ways to adjust your surroundings to support confidence and clarity The connection between space, perspective, and long-term success ABOUT LEIDY KLOTZ Leidy Klotz is a behavioral scientist and engineering professor at the University of Virginia who studies how and why humans design.
