A squirrel has invaded the pitch… not once, but twice. Dave and Fionnuala can't get over the scenes at Hull City vs Bristol City, where the ground staff were left trying (and failing) to catch it.From there, it turns into a surprisingly passionate debate: what are the hardest things to catch? A coin that's rolling away, a receipt in the wind, loose paper money, chickens, sheep… and, inevitably, children who've decided they're not going anywhere.

Join us for an intimate conversation with Dr. Keri Smotrich, Licensed Clinical Psychologist and Certified Perinatal Mental Health Counselor, about the emotional challenges of fertility struggles, pregnancy loss, and the journey to parenthood. We dive into the identity crisis that often comes with infertility, what to expect from those first medical appointments, and how to be kind to yourself through the process. Dr. Smotrich shares practical advice on setting boundaries with friends and family, managing the emotional roller coaster of hope and disappointment, and finding safe people to talk to. Throughout it all, Dr. Smotrich reminds us that seeking help is actually a sign of strength.*Please note: we briefly discuss pregnancy loss and miscarriage.Resources Mentioned:* Postpartum Support International (PSI) - Offers support groups, virtual meetings, and peer mentor programs for fertility challenges, pregnancy loss, and perinatal mental health* Penn Fertility Care in Philadelphia and surrounding areasConnect with Dr. Smotrich:Licensed in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and 45+ states via SciPact for telehealth services.

In this episode, Kyia unpacks what Jesus really meant when He said to deny yourself, take up your cross, and follow Him. She reflects on how this call challenges modern culture, why self-denial isn't self-hatred, and how surrender leads to true freedom. This conversation invites listeners to rethink what it means to follow Jesus daily—with honesty, obedience, and trust.

In this episode of Growing Forward, Pastors Andy and Stephen explore why the act of forgiveness may be the hardest part of following Jesus, how it shapes our relationship with God and others, and a practical, biblical path for dealing with deep hurt and everyday offenses.

In this heartfelt Soul Elevation livestream, Kara Goodwin explores a powerful spiritual truth that can be easy to forget during challenging times: God is in everything, and God uses everything.

This episode offers compassionate guidance for anyone facing difficult decisions, lingering doubts about past choices, or unresolved emotional memories. Kara also discusses how intention, prayer, and energy awareness can be used not only in the present moment, but across time, including healing the past and blessing memories that still carry emotional weight. You will learn: How to trust divine guidance when life feels out of your control Why God uses everything, even situations that feel frightening or imperfect How to bless difficult experiences through prayer and intention How energy, belief, and consciousness can influence healing across time A powerful practice for revisiting and healing past experiences using Ho'oponopono This conversation is especially supportive for parents, caregivers, and anyone questioning whether they made the "right" choice during a difficult chapter of life.

A quick note before we beginThis year, I'm doing something I've wanted to do for a long time.I want to start this year by sharing something a little different.After four years of Live Well Be Well, I'm introducing regular solo episodes. It's taken me a long time to get here. Not because I didn't have things to say, but because it's taken a lot of belief in myself to sit here and share my own thoughts, reflections, and opinions, alongside the voices of the people I speak to on the show.These episodes aren't about giving answers or telling you what to do. They're about making sense of the patterns that keep showing up — in science, in health, and in ourselves.And I feel incredibly privileged to say that. I speak to some of the most respected, iconic people in this field a few times a week, and over the years, I've accumulated such a breadth of knowledge through those conversations. That breadth really matters when it comes to health, because nothing exists in isolation.These solo episodes are a way for me to distill all of that. To share what's staying with me, what's shaping the way I think, and what's been on my mind each month.I also want this to feel like a conversation. Use the comments. Ask me questions. Tell me what you want to hear more about. These episodes, and this space, are where I want to respond.Love, Sarah Ann

In this special holiday week episode, Mike sits down with comedian Alex Edelman, fresh off a Tony Award for his show Just For Us and a spot on the Time 100 list. They discuss the "liquid dynamics" of a Comedy Cellar audience, the art of bombing while testing new material, and why jokes about the Israel-Gaza conflict are the hardest tightrope in comedy right now. Edelman explains why comedy thrives in doubt rather than certainty, how he uses "invisible pillars" to structure a narrative, and why he believes a joke should be "conversant with the moment, not beholden to it." Plus, Mike offers a critique of the mockumentary format glut in modern sitcoms.

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/family-devotions/20251217fam.mp3 Listen to Devotion Read: James 5:7-11 Therefore, brothers, be patient until the coming of the Lord. See how the farmer waits for the valuable harvest from the ground, patiently waiting for it, until it receives the early and late rain. You be patient too. Strengthen your hearts because the coming of the Lord is near. Do not complain about one another, brothers, so that you will not be judged. Look! The Judge is standing at the doors! Brothers, take the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord as an example of suffering with patient endurance. James 5:7-10 (EHV) The Hardest Thing to Do is . . . Waaait! The Hardest Thing to Do is . . . Waaaait! The Hardest Thing to Do is Waaaaait! In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. If you have a dog, you know one of the hardest things to teach it is patience. But it can be done! You might've seen a video of a dog with a treat on its nose while its owner says, “Wait . . . waaaait . . . waaaaait . . . OKAY!” Then the dog flips the treat into the air and gobbles it up. The dog gets rewarded for waiting! But patience isn't just hard for dogs, it's hard for us too. This time of year, we feel it even more. Christmas presents are wrapped already . . . but you can't open them yet. You might be super excited for grandparents to visit . . . but you have to wait for them to arrive. You might love Christmas Eve church or Christmas Day worship . . . but you have to wait for the day to get here. Our Bible reading for today talks about patience. Being patient is a good thing—but it's only really worth it when the person making the promise is someone you can trust. Sometimes people make promises they can't keep, and that makes us sad. But God says, “Be patient until the coming of the Lord.” God promises that one day Jesus will come back in glory, with his angels. He will make a new heaven and a new earth. He promises that everyone who believes in him will live with him forever. But . . . we have to wait. And it's not time yet. So what do we do while we wait? We keep listening to God's Word. We keep living as God's children. We keep fighting against sin. We forgive others—and they forgive us. We keep going, day after day, with Jesus helping us. The prophets in the Bible had to wait too—they waited hundreds of years for Jesus' first coming! And just like a farmer waits for his crops to grow, we wait for Jesus to return. The world is getting ready, and so are we. Being patient isn't easy, but we know something important: God ALWAYS keeps his promises. Not one of his promises has ever failed—and they never will. So we wait . . . but we wait with excitement, because we know Jesus really is coming again! Prayer: Lord Jesus, please help us be patient. You promised to come back and make a brand-new heaven and earth where there is no sin or sadness. Help us believe and trust your promises every day and find strength in daily living. Amen. The questions below are to help families discuss this devotion. The questions are divided by age group as suggestions, but anyone could reflect on any of the questions as they desire. Questions for Younger Children Why does a farmer have to wait for the harvest? (Because plants need time to grow—harvest only happens when the crop is ready!) Are you excited for Christmas? Why do we have to wait for it? (Because Christmas comes at a set time—waiting builds excitement!) Questions for Elementary Age Children What will Jesus do on judgment day? (He will come back in glory, take believers to heaven, and make everything new.) Why shouldn't we complain about each other? (God wants us to love, forgive, and be patient—just like he is patient with us.) Questions for Middle School and Above Name three things you're looking forward to when Jesus comes back. (Ideas: No sadness, seeing Jesus, heaven, new earth, no sin, joy forever.) What should we do while we wait for Jesus to return? (Keep believing, keep learning God's Word, love others, forgive, and trust Jesus.) Download Family Devotions Family Devotions are brought to you by WELS Discipleship.

In today's episode, I accidentally start a debate over a viral video of a girl with gravity-defying boobs (and even stronger spaghetti straps), talk about why people thought I was body shaming her, and unpack whether we're all just a tiny bit narcissistic. I also share what it was like doing the photo shoot for my third book cover (still can't believe it's real), how writing this book was the most challenging time of my life, and why I still sometimes feel like a complete imposter. We end with a gratitude meditation because obviously. Chaos → introspection → healing. Welcome back to Idiot.

We naturally want to control our resources, but miracles only happen when we finally decide to trust God with what is in our hand. By releasing your grip on earthly security, you open the door for Him to multiply your impact in ways you never imagined.

Let's be honest — the call hits harder than you think it will. One moment, you're leading teams and driving outcomes. The next, your screen goes blank, and so does your sense of identity. But here's the truth no one tells you: the hardest part of a layoff isn't the job loss. It's the identity freefall that follows.   And if you don't pause long enough to process it, you'll start reacting — applying, rewriting résumés, chasing anything that feels like control — instead of rebuilding with purpose.   This solo episode is about what happens after the call. The silence. The confusion. And the quiet chance to begin again — on your own terms.   In this episode, you'll hear: Why “apply harder” keeps you stuck in survival mode. How to stop the spiral and regain your footing fast. The 10-minute reset that rebuilds calm and clarity. What the 30-Day Blast really is — and why it works. How a no-pitch, 30-minute clarity call can change everything.   The Mic Drop This isn't the end. It's a reset.

Sometimes we search everywhere for what's missing, the breakthrough, the peace, the purpose, only to realize it's been right in front of us the entire time.In this episode, Eddie shares a story about losing his keys and tearing apart the apartment to find them… until he finally noticed they were hanging exactly where they belonged. It's a simple moment, but a powerful reminder: the things we chase are often already within reach.True clarity doesn't always come from doing more or going further, it comes from pausing long enough to see what's been there all along.Because most of the time, the answers aren't lost.We just forget to look in the right place.Sometimes, that place… is within.More from Eddie Pinero:Monday Motivation Newsletter: https://www.eddiepinero.com/newsletterYour World Within Podcast: https://yourworldwithin.libsyn.com/Stream these tracks on Spotify - https://spoti.fi/2BLf6pBInstagram - @your_world_within and @IamEddiePineroTikTok - your_world_withinFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/YourworldwithinTwitter - https://www.twitter.com/IamEddiePineroBusiness Inquiries - http://www.yourworldwithin.com/contact

Let's flip the script. In this episode, my publisher (and friend) Sherry Ward takes the mic and interviews me about the behind-the-scenes process of writing Million Dollar Grit. We talk about why this book was the hardest thing I've ever done, what it took to merge memoir with business strategy, and why I refused to move on to another project until I closed this loop. You'll hear how my first (regretted) memoir shaped this one, what finally broke my writing resistance, and the healing that came through finishing it. We also talk about editors, AI, imposter fears, and what I really want readers to feel when they close the last page. If you've ever dreamed of writing a book—or wondered what it takes to turn your life into lessons that actually help people—this one's for you.

TJ sits down with Meghan Blanchette, a woman whose journey through addiction, relapse, and self-discovery offers a powerful look at what long-term recovery truly means.Meghan shares how her first sobriety date in 2015 marked the beginning of a new chapter—but a prescribed medication after surgery tested her honesty and recovery principles. She chose to reset her sobriety date, a humbling act that redefined her integrity and commitment to healing. Her story opens an important conversation about prescribed medication, relapse, and the moral choices that often accompany recovery.Growing up as an only child who moved frequently, Meghan reflects on how instability and self-blame laid early groundwork for addiction. Introduced to alcohol in middle school and later to opiates through a prescription, her dependency quickly escalated. By her twenties, Meghan was battling homelessness, withdrawal, and despair—until a moment of clarity walking along a busy road pushed her to seek help.Calling her mother and entering detox through Connecticut's 2-1-1 system became the turning point. Meghan went from living in a tent to completing multiple recovery programs—detox, 90-day treatment, halfway housing, and eventually independent living—each step teaching her life skills, self-respect, and community connection.Today, Meghan thrives as a speaker, coach, and the chairwoman of the board at InterCommunity, the very organization that once helped her rebuild her life. Through her platform FiercelyMeghan.com, she empowers others with lessons in emotional intelligence, self-worth, and recovery principles that apply far beyond addiction. ----Across the Web----

What has made this season so difficult for Giants fans to wrap their heads around.

What if the very thing you wanted to hide… was the very thing the world needed you to show?In this deeply moving episode of ALLSMITH, Bryce sits down with Camille Hunt — a Brooklyn-based artist turning the human form into a canvas of healing, power, and truth. Through her innovative body printing process, Camille helps others turn vulnerability into visual poetry, making art that doesn't just decorate walls, but cracks people open.Raised in Alabama, Camille left comfort behind to backpack solo for four years — hustling on farms, working cafés, and sketching life across continents. That journey became her classroom for resilience, resourcefulness, and self-trust. It also laid the foundation for her art business — built not in a boardroom, but through boldness, heartbreak, and sacred reinvention.“Your scars are not your shame — they're your signature.” – Camille Hunt“Art doesn't ask for perfection. It asks for presence.” – BryceFrom losing her first studio to a flood just three days after moving in… to creating a brand that helps people fall in love with their own skin — Camille's story is a living testament that the mess can become the masterpiece.⸻

In this episode of T Is for Transformation, Shaun tackles a topic that might make some squirm: saying “I love you.” From cultural differences to family dynamics, Shaun explores why three simple words can feel so complicated—and why he says them without hesitation. Whether it's to his mom, his husband Scott, a close friend, or even a gym buddy, Shaun shares how expressing love in different layers connects us on a deeper level. He dives into love languages, self-love, and how the way we give and receive affection reveals more about our confidence and upbringing than we think. This isn't just about romance—it's about healing, reflecting, and transforming through the power of love. Get ready to get uncomfortable, then break through.

Over the past few years, I've become increasingly frustrated at just how HARD it is for founders to find the right people for their business.There are fewer applicants than there used to be for roles in sales and marketing in CPG businessesIt's even tougher to find that magic mix of mindset, experience and soft skills— as well as someone who genuinely fits your culture and values.And the process? It's a lot: search, connect, schedule, first interviews, follow-ups, feedback loops — all while juggling a scaling business — and you STILL might not end up with the right person.It struck me that so many of the incredible guests on Brand Growth Heroes have shared absolute gold when it comes to building teams — how they hire, how they lead, and what they've learned when it all goes wrong.So the brilliant crew at MKJ Ignite - Billy, Paul and Immy, have gone through the Brand Growth Heroes archives and handpicked some snippets from the founders of your favourite challenger brands (think Olipop, Child's Farm, Perfect Ted and Tony's Chocolonely), pulling out the best people insights.  And as a result....BGH SHORTS: The People Series was born!Short 5 min episodes. Golden nuggets. Actionable insights Every 2 weeks, we'll drop a new 5-minute clip - so don't forget to HIT FOLLOW!Because your business is only as strong as your team.It really shouldn't be this hard — but it is.So let's make it a little easier!

A conversation with Lauren Hough, the New York Times bestselling author and essayist. Her critically acclaimed 2021 book, Leaving Isn't the Hardest Thing, details her upbringing in a doomsday cult, her eventual Air Force stint and other careers, and includes several mentions of the years she spent in Amarillo as a child and then a teenager. Hough shares with host Jason Boyett about the role Amarillo played—and continues to play—in the story of her life, how she has become the Panhandle correspondent for Texas Highways, and why being from West Texas carries a lot of currency in the world. This episode is supported by Storybridge and Panhandle Plains Historical Museum.

On episode one hundred and forty three of Holy Ghost Notes, Matt and Tim chat about the changing of seasons and the rewarding feeling of accomplishment before getting into their topics. The first, they share the “hardest” things they've had to experience and/or overcome in their drumming careers. Second, Matt tells a story about a friend who's trying to turn his life around and suggests that he needs to start by deciding to do the next right thing- to which, Tim sums up with a Disney song.

I brought my friend Wade Lightheart on. Wade is one of the founders of Bioptimizers, one of the bosses there. And I asked him to address what is the hardest thing about doing hard things? And he gave me an answer I thought was interesting in regard to the mental capability to do hard things. One of them is to admit to yourself that you are going to fail. It doesn't mean that you fail at everything. You go through a series of failures until you get to successes. Wade and I also talked about world events. And this was surprising to me. A lot of corporate people won't do this. Wade's very successful at Bioptimizers. But he and I talked about the state of the world after this assassination attempt on President Trump. And, I asked Wade, how do we conquer the fear of doing hard things?What does God's Word say? Psalm 23 NIV A psalm of David. 1 The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing.2     He makes me lie down in green pastures,he leads me beside quiet waters,3     he refreshes my soul.He guides me along the right paths    for his name's sake.4 Even though I walk    through the darkest valley,[a]I will fear no evil,    for you are with me;your rod and your staff,    they comfort me.5 You prepare a table before me    in the presence of my enemies.You anoint my head with oil;    my cup overflows.6 Surely your goodness and love will follow me    all the days of my life,and I will dwell in the house of the Lord    forever.Wisdom Nutrition https://trywisdomnow.com/toddStock up on Wisdom for 33% off plus free shipping.
