Most of us say we trust the universe — until life doesn't go our way.What if true fulfillment is something you cultivate through your connection with Source?In this episode of Divine Union™, Nicola explores what it means to rebuild your relationship with Source, God, the Universe, or Higher Power, and why that connection is the foundation of peace, clarity, and authentic joy.Through heartfelt storytelling and grounded spiritual insight, Nicola shares her own journey from subtle mistrust of the divine to a deeper state of trust and surrender. She reflects on how we often cling to outcomes, strive for control, or push against the natural flow of life, and how reconnecting with God restores ease, purpose, and alignment.✨ In this episode, Nicola explores:Why spiritual mistrust shows up as anxiety, control, and attachmentHow to communicate with Source through prayer, signs, and intuitive guidanceSeeing challenges and “failures” as sacred invitations to growThe art of surrendering to a divine timeline without losing agencyThis conversation is an invitation to remember that you are not meant to do it all alone. When you are in relationship with God, every rejection becomes redirection, every ending a doorway, and every moment a call back to divine partnership.Tune in and reconnect with the Source that made you whole, because the deepest trust begins when you stop trying to carry it all yourself.Subscribe to Nicola's Newsletter for intimacy and communication content, along with exclusive special offers.Connect with Nicola on InstagramSubscribe to Nicola's YouTube Channel Browse Nicola's offerings on her WebsiteBecause we love to reward effort, email a screenshot of your review of Divine Union to info@nicolanavon.com to receive a free gift.

A commentary and discussion on the Just for Today: Daily Meditations for Recovering Addicts. Contact Information: 919-675-1058 or facebook.com/groups/theanonpodcast

My guest is DJ Shipley, a former Tier 1 operator Navy SEAL and now a top public educator on how to build mental and physical health and reach top-level performance in any endeavor. DJ's life is one marked by extraordinary strivings, wins, setbacks and comebacks that together have shaped his approach to overcoming challenges of all kinds and to daily life. DJ explains a regimen of clear, practical steps and a mental stance that can allow anyone—male, female, young or old—to build extreme resilience of mind and body and to be successful in family and work. We also discuss his experience with new, emerging treatments for addiction, PTSD and depression that many people, not just veterans, are benefiting from. The tools DJ describes to “stack small wins” and to be ultra-intentional about your mindset will be of immense benefit to anyone wishing to achieve the best version of themselves.

My guest is Dr. Christof Koch, PhD, a pioneering researcher on the topic of consciousness, an investigator at the Allen Institute for Brain Science and the chief scientist at the Tiny Blue Dot Foundation. We discuss the neuroscience of consciousness—how it arises in our brain, how it shapes our identity and how we can modify and expand it. Dr. Koch explains how we all experience life through a unique “perception box,” which holds our beliefs, our memories and thus our biases about reality. We discuss how human consciousness is changed by meditation, non-sleep deep rest, psychedelics, dreams and virtual reality. We also discuss neuroplasticity (rewiring the brain), flow states and the ever-changing but also persistent aspect of the “collective consciousness” of humanity.

You can talk about spirituality all day long in any place, and the worst response you will get is boredom. You can talk about a Higher Power and create little offense. You can even talk about following the teachings of the “J” man, and as long as you keep him on the level of any other great ethical teacher, no one minds. Speak of the man Jesus as the Son of God who is the measure of truth and the only way to forgiveness of sins, and sparks fly. The “J” word assaults the sovereignty of myself as center.

Welcome back to another weekly episode as the Trudge Trio gives a quick around the horn with a few more comments on the Chris McKinnell episodes and the new Conjuring film that just came out. We also have a few takes on the weekend's wild NFL week 1 matchups and results.This week, Corey, Greg, and Shawn, focus heavily on recovery and we talk a lot about God, the afterlife, reincarnation, what heaven means to us, our perceptions and conceptions of a Higher Power and Spirit of the Universe. We break down the difference between belief and faith. The questions we ask are very thought-provoking and hopefully will leave the listeners thinking and contemplating which is never a bad thing and can only lead to more growth. “Belief in God is just that, a belief. Faith requires knowledge. Not book knowledge or intellectual knowledge, but experiential knowledge.”                -anonymous-Don't forget to like, share, rate, and download the podcast on all of your listening platforms.

This week we have...Mike and Bill on Hump Day! Yes, we have plans this weekend, so we recorded early. Not that it matters, but we are telling you either way.Mike kicked things off with his reading and it was about life on life's terms. Things happen (good, bad and indifferent), but how we handle those things is what matters. Do we want to be part of the problem or part of the solution? It was a good talk. We chatted about the Cracker Barrel (who hasn't, right?) and yes, that was the inspiration for "The Caucasian Container" title. Then it was the new season, Marc Maron and free-styling, pure Michigan, Higher Power stuff, good news, perfect is boring, the radio gig wrap up, the F*cking Sober Podcast and grandkids.We mentioned that we have plans this weekend. Mike and Chris are in Alaska and Bill is hanging out with FIB's in the southern part of the FIB state.

My guest is Dr. David DeSteno, PhD, a professor of psychology at Northeastern University. We discuss science, God and religion, including what science can and can't reveal about the existence of God and where religious faith and science do and do not align. We also discuss why questions about life's origins, miracles and the afterlife have persisted across time. Dr. DeSteno explains how religious rituals cause meaningful improvements in mental and physical health and how prayer and gratitude can markedly reduce stress, increase honesty and compassion and buffer against loneliness and despair. Finally, we explore what distinguishes religions and mission-based communities from cults, and we discuss the role that communities such as 12-step and Burning Man play in modern life.

Julian H found his "solution" in sex and porn as a youth. Living in years of shame and secrets, he kept his life as a double life - portraying himself as a good man around others, but living in fear and darkness alone. In September of 2019, his way of secret living was abolished when he was introduced to the 12 Steps by his loving Higher Power. Now, his life is forever changed as he has found a Real Solution and is committed to share this new way of life with others.  He speaks to us today on the phrase from the Big Book, "We Let God Discipline Us".Reco12 is an open-to-all addictions and afflictions organization, dedicated to exploring the common threads of the differing manifestations of alcoholism; sharing tools, and offering hope from those walking a similar path. We gather from diverse backgrounds, faiths, and locations to learn and support one another. Our speakers come from various fellowships and experiences, demonstrating the universal principles of recovery.  Reco12 is not allied or affiliated with any specific 12 Step fellowship.Donations:Support Reco12's 12th Step Mission!
