Podcasts about hard days

In the spring of 1999, songwriter/recording artist Arlan Feiles received a call from Stephen Trask. Trask shared that he was the composer of a show running at the Jane St. Theater in NYC called Hedwig and the Angry Inch, and he was looking for a multi instrumentalist/vocalist for the show's first touring run in Boston. As soon as Arlan heard Trask's magnificent songs, he was on board. 25 years later, Arlan will be reprising his role as Skshp for a 3 week run at the Bell Works Theater in NJ with musician/performer Remember Jones as Hedwig, AND he joins us to unpack the show's pure rock and roll heart that is the Original Cast Recording.

Psalm 46

 How to Stay Faithful When Life Hurts Scripture: “Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance.” – James 1:2-3 Why the Hard Days Matter “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” – John 16:33 Hard days hit without warning. Whether it's a health scare, job loss, grief, or a season of waiting, no one is immune. The pain might be physical, emotional, or spiritual. It may be short-lived or stretch on longer than we ever expected. But no matter what form it takes, one truth remains: our response matters. Faith doesn't exempt us from suffering. In fact, following Jesus often brings new challenges. But it also brings a deeper strength—a strength rooted in something far more stable than our circumstances: God's presence. 1. Expect the Storms “In this world you will have trouble.” – John 16:33 Jesus didn't sugarcoat the truth. Trouble will come. But the presence of pain doesn't mean the absence of God. On the contrary, some […] The post Enduring the Hard Days appeared first on UNCOMMEN.

Janell welcomes Aundi Kolber, a Licensed Professional Counselor and author, to explore how the flow of strength helps us move beyond trauma to true flourishing. Aundi reminds us "that seeing resurrection is no small thing."• Aundi explains the "window of tolerance" – the optimal zone where we can feel emotions without being overwhelmed.• Trauma can narrow our window of tolerance, making us feel unsafe even when we're secure.• The "flow of strength" moves us from situational survival responses to integrated strength that combines fierceness with tenderness.• Our nervous systems need "metabolization" to process difficult experiences into long-term memory rather than fragmented triggers.• Practical grounding techniques help orient us to present safety when we feel activated by past trauma.• Practicing simple awareness techniques, such as "I am aware of the light coming through my room," helps regulate our nervous system.• True strength is "the capacity to meet life's challenges," not suppressing emotions or white-knuckling through difficulty.• "We work FROM love, not FOR love" – our value doesn't come from how well we heal.• Self-compassion practices might need to start with small steps if safety feels threatening after prolonged trauma.Explore more through Aundi's books "Try Softer," "Strong Like Water," and "Take What You Need: Soft Words for Hard Days."

It's a fine word; but in the words of Inigo Montoya, “I do not think it means what you think it means.” We'll discuss how the Hammons family told God what we needed and He gave us what we wanted; the “needs” we ought to be praying that God not fulfill; the biggest need our physical body has and how we've turned it into a curse; and a 7,000-year-old game that's teaching us lessons even today.Check out Hal on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/@halhammons9705Hal Hammons serves as preacher and shepherd for the Lakewoods Drive church of Christ in Georgetown, Texas.

Today's episode is basically what happened when years of parenting, and one very persistent thought about "hard days" collided into what might be the most important perspective shift I've ever had. Grab your favorite drink and let's dive into this game-changing conversation!

This week on Classic Vinyl Podcast and our Meet the Beatles series, Justin and Tyler listen to and review side 2 of The Beatles and their 3rd studio album, A Hard Day's Night. Give it a listen and let us know what you think.

Maybe it's just me, but I've got a real sweet spot for when, in the midst of all the chaos of exploding into the world's biggest band and becoming the greatest songwriters alive, the Beatles blow off steam by pulling out a song from their garage band days. "Slow Down," written by New Orleanian Larry Williams (protege to Little Richard and Lloyd Price) was recorded during the sessions for the A Hard Day's Night album, when John's early rock and roll voice is arguably at it's peak. Those screams...good lawdy, indeed ! It feels carefree and joyous, they're not fretting over if this new song is going to be the next big hit, they're just hitting the release valve and letting go all that pressure, just playing rock and roll for the fun of it. I love those moments. Bad news, folks: Julia's not with us today. Good news, folks: our podpals from Blotto Beatles are! We love any chance to catch up with our Blotto bros, and this time was no exception (well, except for Julia's absence). We talk about the trouble with Larrys, Beatle footware, covers, the Fest for Beatle Fans, and so much more! If you're not listening to Blotto Beatles, you should be, so check it out!

In this episode, Allie Marie Smith has a heartfelt conversation with Aundi Kolber, a licensed professional counselor and bestselling author. They talk about Aundi's personal journey through trauma and how it shaped her work in counseling and writing. They discuss the importance of self-compassion, the challenges of having an inner critic, and the need for kindness towards oneself. Aundi shares insights from her new book, 'Take What You Need: Soft Words for Hard Days,' offering encouragement for those having difficult times. Let this conversation remind you of the profound love and care God has for you and that you don't have to hustle your way through life!   Takeaways   Self-compassion is crucial in trauma recovery. Recognizing our inner critic is the first step to healing. We often internalize narratives that are not true. Honoring our pain is essential for growth. It's okay to take things one breath at a time. We are deserving of care and compassion. Faith can coexist with our human fragility. Practicing mindfulness helps us become aware of our feelings. We can learn to be kind to ourselves. Healing is a journey that requires patience and grace.     Visit our website.   Get Allie's book “Social Media Reset” Get Allie's book “Wonderfully Made”   Join our Love Her A'Latte campaign — make our podcast possible.   Get the show notes

In Music Films: Documentaries, Concert Films and Other Cinematic Representations of Popular Music (Bloomsbury, 2024), Dr. Neil Fox considers a broad range of music documentaries, delving into their cinematic style, political undertones, racial dynamics, and gender representations, in order to assess their role in the cultivation of myth. Combining historical and critical analyses, and drawing on film and music criticism, Fox examines renowned music films such as A Hard Day's Night (1964), Dig! (2004), and Amazing Grace (2006), critically lauded works like Milford Graves Full Mantis (2018) and Mistaken for Strangers (2013), and lesser-studied films including Jazz on a Summer's Day (1959) and Ornette: Made in America (1985). In doing so, he offers a comprehensive overview of the genre, situating these films within their wider cultural contexts and highlighting their formal and thematic innovations. Discussions in the book span topics from concert filmmaking to music production, the music industry, touring, and filmic representations of authenticity and truth. Overall, Music Films traces the evolution of the genre, highlighting its cultural significance and connection to broader societal phenomena. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose new book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.
