Podcasts about honest conversations

Steve and I talk about something we both know all too well: that awkward, subtle distance that can build up in a relationship when you're not saying what you're really feeling.We recently found ourselves in a place of disconnection, nothing dramatic, no big argument, just a series of micro misunderstandings, missed cues, and moments where we assumed instead of asked. Steve played the, 'everything is fine' card. I kept going into the, 'ah, no it's not'. We talk about:The quiet buildup that leads to emotional distanceHow easy it is to misread or misinterpret each other when we're not fully presentWhy the “I'm fine” act only works for so long before resentment starts to settle inAnd what it took to finally come back into honest connectionThis episode is for anyone who's ever felt a disconnect but didn't quite know how to name it. For anyone who's ever gone through the motions while something unspoken sits between you. Buy my book, Authentic - coming home to your true self - AUS, EUR, USACoach with me 1:1 - Book a 20-minute call nowThe Good Life - sign up nowFree Wheel of Life Assessment - take the test nowWrite into us - let us know what you want to hearWelleCo - welleco.com.auwww.katjohn.com.auSupport the show

On this After Dark episode of the Iron Sights Podcast, I'm joined once again by my good friend, Mark Smith of JBS Training Group. This is the third time we've sat down together, and each conversation seems to hit a little different. We dig into the importance of mindset—for both students and instructors—and how shifting it can drastically improve performance. Mark also breaks down strategies for aligning training with results, as well as when equipment really matters for shooting performance and how to know if it's worth the investment.Beyond the technical talk, we also dive into the value of having honest, meaningful conversations—with your peers, your students, and even yourself. Mark has a gift for delivering insight that's both practical and thought-provoking, and that's why these episodes always get so much positive feedback.Timestamps:00:00 Intro04:28 Exploring SF & Teaching Courses07:58 Independent Thinking In Training10:54 Challenges In Law Enforcement17:40 Competition's Role In Training38:44 Misconceptions In Strength Training41:23 The Importance Of Self-Awareness45:09 Value Of Equipment In Shooting01:01:47 Cultural Challenges In Law Enforcement01:12:22 Intentional Fatherhood & Leadership01:14:49 Honest Conversations & Compassion01:20:16 Emotions In Learning01:27:41 Social Media & Communication01:34:16 Honest Feedback In TrainingRed Dot Fitness Training Programs:rdfprograms.comOnline Membership (Full Access To All Programs & Virtual Coaching):https://www.reddotfitness.net/online-membershipVirtual Coaching:https://www.reddotfitness.net/virtual-coachingSelf-Guided Programs:https://www.reddotfitness.net/Self-Guided-Programs1Connect With Us:Website - https://ironsightspodcast.com/Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/ironsightspodcast/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/

Becoming a mother transforms everything – your body, your relationships, your identity – but most parenting books barely scratch the surface of this seismic shift. Licensed therapist Rachel Elmore discovered this gap firsthand when she experienced postpartum depression after her first child's birth, despite her professional expertise.When established treatment resources failed her, Rachel created what became the foundation for her groundbreaking book "A Mom is Born" – the first postpartum resource written from both clinical and Christian perspectives by someone who lived through it. This conversation explores the comprehensive New Mom Wellness Plan that has helped thousands of women navigate early motherhood with grace and support.Rachel unpacks the practical wisdom behind creating a "postpartum pack" . Why accepting help isn't a burden but actually a gift to those who care, and how this vulnerability often leads to deeper, more meaningful relationships. Everything from handling meal trains and managing household responsibilities to navigating the significant hormonal shifts that occur even when weaning from breastfeeding.For those supporting new mothers, Rachel offers insight into creating truly welcoming spaces that accommodate both mother and baby needs. Most importantly, Rachel shares the perspective every struggling mother needs: "Bad moms don't worry about being bad moms. Good moms do that." The very act of worrying about your parenting indicates you're already on the right track.Whether you're a new parent, supporting someone who is, or preparing for future parenthood, this conversation provides the honest, compassionate guidance we all wish came standard with every baby shower invitation.

If you've ever wondered how to talk to children about death, episode 366 is for you. Author and grief advocate Clarissa Moll shares how losing her husband reshaped life as a widowed mother of four—and why honest conversations help kids more than protection. Through her children's book Hope Comes to Stay and her own story, Clarissa shows how grief can grow resilience, compassion, and even joy.In This Episode, You Will Learn:(1:00) Life shattered by sudden loss(1:40) Choosing joy amid grief(2:40) The story behind hope comes to stay(4:30) Teaching kids that pain exists—and joy too(5:10) The myth of invincibility(8:30) Why we must talk about death with children(13:40) Lost rituals, lost comfort(15:40) The power of consolation and community(17:30) The limits of online support(18:50) Staying present for the grievingIn today's episode, I'm joined by Clarissa Moll, an author, podcaster, and grief advocate who helps people navigate loss with honesty and hope. After her husband's sudden death in 2019, Clarissa began writing and speaking about grief, parenting through loss, and finding joy in life's hardest seasons. She produces and moderates The Bulletin, Christianity Today's flagship news podcast, and is the author of Beyond the Darkness: A Gentle Guide for Living with Grief and Thriving After Loss and the children's book Hope Comes to Stay. Drawing on personal experience and compassionate insight, Clarissa encourages open conversations about death, resilience, and community. Through her books, podcasting, and speaking, she offers families practical tools to face grief together while cultivating compassion and courage. She lives with her four children, carrying forward her late husband's legacy with honesty and joy.Throughout this episode, Clarissa shares a deeply personal perspective on grief and resilience. After becoming a widowed mother of four, she dedicated her work to guiding others through loss, showing that grief, though painful, can nurture compassion and interdependence. In Hope Comes to Stay, she demonstrates how stories of hardship help children grasp both the reality of suffering and the possibility of joy. Clarissa stresses the importance of speaking directly with kids about death—avoiding euphemisms and giving them the language they need—and reflects on how modern culture conceals death, erasing rituals that once offered comfort. Ultimately, she highlights the irreplaceable role of community support—meals, childcare, presence—over the illusion of handling grief alone.Connect with Clarissa Moll:WebsiteInstagramSubstackLinkedInGet Clarissa's books!Let's Connect: WebsiteLinkedInTwitterThe Grief and Happiness Alliance Hosted on Acast.

Abortion is one of the most debated and sensitive topics of our time, and recently it's been flooding my comment section. Some say it's “just a clump of cells,” while others argue it's the ending of a life. In this episode, I'm not here to debate or water down what I believe—I'm here to share my perspective through the lens of my faith.We'll talk about free will and God's gift of choice, why our moral compass as believers is guided by the Holy Spirit, and why I believe abortion is more than just “terminating cells.” I'll share my personal convictions and even some of my own family's story to explain why this isn't just a political issue to me—it's a spiritual one.My prayer is that this episode challenges you to reflect, dig into Scripture for yourself, and let God reveal to you His truth.

Meet Grapes n Cream — a balanced hybrid lovechild of Grape Pie (Grape Stomper × Cherry Pie) and Cookies & Cream (Girl Scout Cookies × Starfighter). This one's grown to impress: dense buds, gorgeous purple flecks, and an aroma that'll make you double-take the jar.Smell & TasteSweet grapes up front, creamy vanilla in the middle, and a soft berry finish.

For many couples, the journey to parenthood is filled with hope, heartbreak, and hard choices. But there's one question that almost no one talks about openly: “When should I stop trying for a baby?”In this episode of Egg Meets Sperm, I am joined by Gabriela Rosa. She has been doing this for years before I started! Gabriela Rosa is a Harvard-awarded fertility specialist and founder of the world's first virtual holistic fertility clinic. Over the past two decades, she has helped more than 140,000 couples in 110+ countries overcome infertility and miscarriage—even when nothing else worked.In this deeply honest discussion, we explore:The hard truths of the fertility industry – why many healthcare systems stop digging for answers too soon, and why “unexplained infertility” can waste precious time.Emotional alignment with your partner – how mismatched desires can quietly sabotage your journey.Financial and lifestyle realities – why resources, career goals, and emotional reserves are as important as medical options.Stories of resilience and clarity – from a 58-year-old first-time mother to couples who walked away and built a different kind of life.How to know when it's your decision – the internal compass and writing exercises that help you listen to your own truth, free from outside pressure.We also talk openly about why having a baby should never be seen as a solution to relationship challenges, and how to avoid the heartbreak of pursuing someone else's dream instead of your own.Whether you're actively in treatment, considering stopping, or supporting someone on this path, this conversation offers insight, compassion, and a framework for making one of life's most personal decisions.Timestamps:0:00 – Introduction: The question no one wants to ask5:42 – How the healthcare system fails fertility patients14:10 – The emotional cost of “trying everything”20:33 – When partners aren't on the same page28:57 – Real stories: late-in-life pregnancy, 20+ IVF attempts, and letting go38:44 – Using your internal compass to guide decisions45:30 – Why a baby won't “fix” a relationship51:00 – Final thoughts: living in integrity with your decisionFollow Gariela Rosa on:LinkedInRosa Institute: https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-rosa-institute/mycompany/Gabriela: https://www.linkedin.com/in/gabrielarosa/Instagram:@fertilitybreakthrough: https://www.instagram.com/fertilitybreakthrough/@gabrielarosafertility: https://www.instagram.com/gabrielarosafertility/@dr.gabrielarosa: https://www.instagram.com/dr.gabrielarosa/@gabrielarosa_talksex: https://www.instagram.com/gabrielarosa_talksex/ Youtube:https://www.youtube.com/@naturalfertilitybreakthrou9897Facebook:Gabriela:

What happens when the faith we’ve built our lives around collides with the hardest seasons we never saw coming? Is there something deeper God wants to do in our hearts—and in our churches—when comfort drops away and the “dark night of the soul” invades our story? In this provoking and vulnerable episode of Christian Parent Crazy World, host Catherine Segars sits down with accomplished artist, worship leader, and theological scholar Isaac Gay for an unexpected, off-script deep dive into the challenges—and the stunning potential—of the modern charismatic church. Key Takeaways from this Episode: The “Dark Night of the Soul” is Real: Every believer—charismatic or not—must face seasons of doubt, disappointment, and difficulty. Instead of offering quick fixes, God invites us deeper, beyond beginner faith, to real trust and transformation. Strengths of the Charismatic Movement: We cherish and pursue God’s presence, expectant for miracles and supernatural encounters... but sometimes get so focused on the sensational that we neglect depth, discipline, and theology. Where We Fall Short: Charismatic churches can fall into emotionalism, lacking intellectual rigor or robust discipleship. Kids can get stuck in shallow social environments, leaving them spiritually bored, starved, or even driving them away from faith entirely. Learning from Other Traditions: We need BOTH heart and mind—experience AND theology. Ancient disciplines, liturgies, “high church” practices, and regularly engaging with deep thinkers (even ones we disagree with!) can anchor our faith when feelings fade. Raising Faithful Kids Means Planting in Rich Soil: Where (and how) we “plant” our kids spiritually matters—a safe, friendly environment isn’t always a spiritually nourishing one. Sometimes our children (and we, as parents) need deep, hard, stretching soil to really grow. Unity and Humility: All branches of Christianity have blind spots—we need one another! Learning across traditions, holding fast to Scripture, and pursuing Christ above all else is the path to a genuine, lasting faith. The Goal: More than chasing blessings or avoiding pain, mature faith says, “Even if God doesn’t move the way I want, I will still serve Him.” That’s the kind of walk our kids need to see—and the legacy we want to leave. Key Quote: “I want to be a church with theology that can't be dismissed and power that can't be denied.” ~ Isaac Gay Isaac and Catherine’s raw conversation is a must-listen for any parent who wants to raise kids that aren’t just “good churchgoers,” but wholehearted disciples—anchored in truth, resilient in hardship, ready for beauty, and alive to the Holy Spirit. What about you? How is your church—and your home—preparing your children to handle the dark nights of faith? How can you help them embrace both Spirit and truth, head and heart, as they follow Jesus in a confusing world? Don’t miss next week’s solo episode, where Catherine digs into what God is accomplishing in the dark night of the soul. And stay tuned for the conversation Catherine and Isaac were supposed to have (coming soon), where they will dig into how beauty—and restoring creativity—can become one of the strongest apologetics for a new generation. Meet the guest: Isaac Gay is a multifaceted artist working at the intersection of creativity, spirituality, and contemporary thought. As a worship leader, thinker, and writer, Isaac’s heart is one of an iconoclast, while remaining grounded in the enduring principles of orthodox Christianity. He and his wife Emily are the hosts of the Not Crushing It Podcast, and have three children. He holds a Master of Letters from the University of Aberdeen.

Chryssy brings her expertise as a sociologist and her lived experience to this honest and insightful conversation. In this episode, we explore: Why adult friendship and community are essential—not optional How wisdom, discernment, and wise counsel can help you form healthy new connections Practical ideas for re-engaging with others, even if you're feeling isolated Whether you're craving new connections or reevaluating old ones, this episode will encourage you to reflect and reconnect—with wisdom and hope.

Open Forum: In this wide-ranging discussion, Pastor Amos and other participants explored the biblical perspective of marriage as a complete union, rejecting modern ideas of self-preservation within relationships. Pastor Amos emphasized transparency, commitment, and the dangers of holding back, while addressing the societal impacts of fear, divorce, and shifting gender dynamics rooted in Genesis. The group examined differences in male-female communication, challenges in modern dating—especially among successful individuals—and the effects of cultural norms at HBCUs. Personal experiences highlighted the importance of inner beauty, prayer, mentorship, and spiritual alignment in preparing for and maintaining healthy relationships. The conversation concluded with reflections on ambition, financial balance, and the significance of mutual respect and prayerful consideration in partnerships.

Hello, hello, and welcome to another episode of the Red Couch Theology podcast. Hey, everyone, this week, we're talking a little bit about prayer, and I think Alex, in his message on Sunday and in this episode, he actually says some of the things that many of us have wondered silently. He says it out loud. What's up with those prayers that don't get answered? Or the suffering that we feel and we cry out to God and it seems like he's silent. How do we deal with all of that kind of thing? Is God causing our pain? Does he not care about it? Is he not listening? These are all the kinds of questions we wrestle with today. And I'd encourage you to dive in with us. Let's begin.

In this episode of The Intentional Dad, hosts J. Fotsch and Jason Hynson welcome guest Brian Mattson from The Downtown Church for a heartfelt discussion on fostering trust and openness in family conversations. The dads explore how honesty, humility and consistency are crucial for building emotional safety at home—especially when discussing hard topics or addressing mistakes both theirs and their children's. The conversation emphasizes the power of modeling honesty and vulnerability, especially when parents admit they're wrong. The trio shares personal stories about navigating difficult questions from their kids, handling lies with grace and keeping communication age-appropriate while still truthful. They stress that maintaining an open-door policy—no matter the topic or time of day—lays the foundation for long-term trust. Their message is clear: being an intentional dad means creating space for honest conversations even when it's uncomfortable. Episode Highlights [02:02] "Being able to say I was wrong… I went up and I apologized for the 10% I missed. Did he say, 'You're right, I was wrong'? No. But I wanted to keep that door open." [03:21] "The more times that door gets shut incrementally, that's going to be a big deal a decade later." [08:06] "If my daughter comes to me with real questions, that lets me know she's old enough for a real answer." [18:00] "You don't necessarily get in trouble for the act… but if we find out that you're not truthful with Mom and Dad, that's when we're upset." [21:11] "When he's been told he's done wrong… that just shatters him. So you have to be tender, especially when you do catch him in a lie." [24:17] "I don't believe in trickle-down economics but I believe in trickle-down emotions." Resources

In this episode of Uncommon Sense, we're talking about Tucker Carlson's highly discussed interview with Senator Ted Cruz. I'll be sharing my honest thoughts on how it went, why I think Tucker came out ahead, and what this kind of bold, unscripted, and unapologetically frank conversation means for the future of political discourse (spoiler: I'm all for it).We'll go into why I support constructive confrontation—yes, even when it gets "mean" and uncomfortable. The Founding Fathers didn't tiptoe around the truth, so why should we? They debated passionately because the stakes were high. The polite punditry act is wearing thin, and people are tired of political puppets mouthing safe lines. They're craving what we saw here: real conviction, real disagreement, and real questions.We'll cover why I believe Tucker won this exchange: from his biblical literacy to his serious concerns about foreign lobbying groups like AIPAC having a hand in U.S. policy. Ted got visibly nervous when pressed about Scripture, about Israel, and about U.S. involvement in a possible war with Iran. And the question still lingers: Why are we only now suddenly being pushed to act, when Trump was reportedly targeted by Iran two years ago?Most importantly, we'll reflect on Tucker's question—a theological one with deep political ramifications: Who is the real Israel according to God? Is it the modern state that does not believe Jesus is Lord and historically has required a denial of Christ for Jewish returnees? Or is it the true church—those who belong to Christ?I'll share my belief unapologetically: Israel is the body of believers in Jesus Christ. Not those who reject Him. Not those who crucified Him. That's a hard truth, but a necessary one in these last days when clarity very much matters.Faith shouldn't be a popularity contest.--https://www.thebrandsunday.com/products/the-bible-study-physical?srsltid=AfmBOorwAVEYslTlOGA-36_bHHjruNDOebEKWQ6M2115NZZwL8WG_ali

Ever wondered if you could truly change your relationship with drinks and unlock a more vibrant life? Hear Dan Hall's powerful story, an AFL 90-day program graduate who went from decades of habitual drinking, a pattern that intensified during COVID, to a life he never imagined.

This episode delves into that decision and the path that unfolded. Dan describes his transformation as a "miracle", explaining how AFL helped reshape his neuropath ways until the desire for alcohol simply vanished. He shares compelling details of newfound mental clarity, professional success, stronger relationships, and a profound sense of peace and joy. If you're wondering if significant change is possible, Dan's honest account offers inspiration and insight into achieving a richer, fuller life.   Download my FREE guide: The Alcohol Freedom Formula For Over 30s Entrepreneurs & High Performers: https://social.alcoholfreelifestyle.com/podcast ★ - Learn more about Project 90: www.alcoholfreelifestyle.com/Project90 ★ - (Accountability & Support) Speak verbally to a certified Alcohol-Free Lifestyle coach to see if, or how, we could support you having a better relationship with alcohol: https://www.alcoholfreelifestyle.com/schedule ★ - The wait is over – My new book “CLEAR” is now available.
