Segment 1: • A podcast features an ADHD “expert” promoting unscientific claims and labeling normal behavior as pathological. • The rise of ADHD diagnoses—especially in boys—might reveal more about parenting and expectations than mental health. • Todd challenges the cruelty of secular diagnoses that ignore biblical categories of the heart. Segment 2: • The expert describes ordinary human experiences as symptoms of ADHD—especially academic struggles. • Todd challenges the cultural tendency to pathologize God-given personality traits. • Rather than diagnosing hyperactivity, what if God is using difficult children to grow us in holiness? Segment 3: • A surprisingly honest NYT article admits Americans haven't found anything more satisfying than religion. • Kids are desperate for answers—Christianity still offers what the world can't. • Wesley Huff's clear gospel witness shows biblical clarity can shine in cultural confusion. Segment 4: • Despite rising secularism, people confess their spiritual longings won't go away. • Community, meaning, and even friendship are poor replacements for God. • Harvard's elite can't answer life's biggest questions—but Scripture can. – Preorder the new book, Lies My Therapist Told Me, by Fortis Institute Fellow Dr. Greg Gifford now! https://www.harpercollins.com/pages/liesmytherapisttoldme – Thanks for listening!

5 Everyday Things You Didn't Know Were Hurting Animals We all want to believe that we're doing our best to be kind to animals, but there are hidden practices in industries and activities that we often don't think about that can cause harm to animals in ways we never realised.

Have you ever found yourself prepping everything before you leave the house—or swooping in to “just fix it” when your partner handles a parenting moment differently than you would? It might feel helpful or necessary in the moment, but over time, it can quietly erode your partnership and leave you feeling more like a manager than a teammate. In this episode, I'm breaking down the hidden cost of stepping in too often, why it happens (hint: it's not just about your spouse), and how you can begin to shift this pattern in a way that benefits everyone in your family. This isn't about blame—it's about awareness, relief, and building the kind of marriage where you feel held, supported, and safe to let go a little. Tune in to discover: The deeper reasons why moms step in, even when they don't want to What stepping in too often teaches your partner (and why it's not helping) The emotional weight of always being “on” and how it builds resentment The powerful mindset shift that helped me finally stop doing it all Conversations that build real partnership instead of more to-do lists Connect with me for a FREE Married After Kids Intervention Call: https://marriedafterkids.satoriapp.com/offers/277730-married-after-kids-intervention-call FREE Marriage Shutdown Checklist: https://marriedafterkids.com/marriage-shutdown?utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=links&utm_campaign=MSoptin FREE TRAINING!

Why Agents Should Think Twice Before Celebrating Industry “Good News”On the latest episode of Insurance Business Babes, hosts Kathe Kline and Joanna Wyckoff dive into the issues behind Medicare's disaster SEPs (Special Election Periods), recent government reversals, and why not all agent celebrations are necessarily cause for joy. If you're an agent who's popped the champagne over recent changes, this episode is for you.When "Wins" Aren't Wins for EveryoneThe government recently reversed a rule, now allowing agents to enroll clients using the disaster SEP again, rather than having clients call Medicare directly. On the surface, this sounds like a win, but Kathe and Joanna urge caution. The reversal makes it easier for bad actors—especially call centers—to abuse SEPs for commission, often enrolling vulnerable clients in unsuitable or unnecessary plans. The end result? Honest agents face unfair competition and a system that can hurt clients without careful oversight.The Real Cost of Abused SEPsDisaster SEPs are meant for people genuinely affected by natural disasters and unable to enroll during typical periods. Kathe shares stories about agents moving clients between plans quarter after quarter under questionable pretense. Not only does this strain trust in the industry, but it also puts pressure on carriers and small agents alike. Frequent rollovers, rapid disenrollment, and adverse selection can damage both client outcomes and carrier profitability, leading to fewer good products in the market.Small Business Agents: The Ones Getting SqueezedAs Joanna notes, regulatory changes intended to clamp down on abuse often make life harder for solo agents and small agencies, not the big call centers causing most issues. Increased documentation, lengthy disclaimers, and constant regulation can be overwhelming, especially when honest agents get painted with the same broad brush.Celebrate Wisely—and Put Clients FirstFinally, Kathe and Joanna remind agents that cutting corners or exploiting loopholes ultimately harms your reputation and client base. Instead, build your book with integrity, focus on true client needs, and don't be swayed by industry “wins” that may only benefit the big players. Diversify, cross-sell, and always act as if you were advising your own family member—your clients (and your business) will thank you for it.This episode is sponsored by CertifiedMedicareAgents.com.

Story at-a-glance Research shows eating slower increases meal length through more chews and bites, not by changing chewing tempo; this gives your brain more time to register fullness signals The study found following a slow rhythm of 40 beats per minute while eating significantly extended meal length by 47 seconds, adding 29 more chews and almost five more bites Taking smaller bites, using smaller utensils and choosing whole foods that require more chewing naturally extends your mealtime without requiring conscious effort Putting your fork down between bites creates natural pauses that allow fullness hormones to work properly, preventing overeating Women showed stronger responses to slow rhythmic eating cues than men, though the benefits of slower eating applied to both sexes

At some point, you've probably felt like you were living in some strange alternate version of your life. Maybe it was after a tragedy as dramatic as a stroke. Perhaps it was something as mundane as realizing you're middle aged. We desperately want to find our way back to the way life used to be, but it turns out that version of life is beyond our reach. So what are our options here? We can keep longing for what was—unsatisfied, absent, and stuck. Or we can learn to love the “new normal” in front of us. Yeah, I like that option.Today I'm joined by my wise and wonderful friend Susan Robinson to uncover how we can learn to love the lives we never imagined living.I loved this conversation so much. Here's a preview of what we got into…The thing that helped make my post-stroke life feel not only normal, but hopefulWhat advice I'd give to my pre-stroke selfWhat I miss most about my old lifeThe childhood dream that has been the most difficult to releaseI hope you enjoy this important conversation, friend, and, even more than that, I hope you can learn to truly enjoy your one precious life.Show Notes:Treasures in the Dark: 90 Reflections on Finding Bright Hope Hidden in the Hurting - https://a.co/d/51XN3fqWhat's Here Now?: How to Stop Rehashing the Past and Rehearsing the Future--and Start Receiving the Present by Jeannie Stevens - https://a.co/d/4EUeIXuThe GoodHard Story Podcast Episode 96: Losing Memory and Keeping Hope with Alzheimer's Expert Megan Carnarius - https://pod.link/1496882479/episode/60ed5c2e5e34383a7079f18c20333809Scriptures referenced in this episode:***There's so much more to the story.

Tears for Fears is a duo formed in 1981 in Bath, England by Roland Orzabal and Curt Smith. They've sold over 30 million albums, starting with their first, The Hurting, which went to number one in the UK. But it was their second album, Songs from the Big Chair, that made them international stars. It came out in 1985, and had huge singles like “Shout” and "Head Over Heels.” But their biggest hit is “Everybody Wants to Rule the World.” It won Best Single at the BRIT Awards in 1986, and it's been streamed over 2 billion times. So I talked to the two of them about how they, along with their producer Chris Hughes and keyboard player Ian Stanley, made a song that would help define the sound of the 80s.For more, visit songexploder.net/tears-for-fears.

After decades of working with women, witnessing their patterns, pain, and awakening, I come back to one question: Why are women hurting so much? In this powerful conversation, my COO Diana, turns the mic toward me once again to dive into the ache so many women carry—and what actually heals it. We explore the invisible expectations placed on women, the cultural scripts we're handed, and what it really looks like to reclaim your power. I share my own story of nearly leaving my marriage, what I see in women who come to this work after trying everything else: the moment they stop outsourcing their power, the moment they remember who they are and the moment everything begins to shift. In this episode, we talk about: The cultural blueprint women are handed—and why it's failing us What it means to truly lead your life (and why no one is coming to save you) The early days of my own marriage and how I nearly walked away The real cost of shrinking, shape-shifting, and silencing ourselves How Midlife Muse is not just a program, but a philosophy What I've seen over and over again in the women who do this work—it's not just transformation, it's liberation We are not here to perform, to please, or to prove. We are here to lead, to feel deeply, to reimagine womanhood—on our own terms. If this resonates with you, share it with a sister who is ready to begin her healing journey.

Are our efforts to help the poor always helpful, or could they sometimes do more harm than good?Today, we'll explore how short-term missions can genuinely reflect the heart of Christ and bring lasting change, without unintentionally hurting the very people we aim to serve. Dr. Brian Fikkert joins us for that conversation.Dr. Brian Fikkert is a Professor of Economics and Community Development and the Founder and President of the Chalmers Center for Economic Development at Covenant College in Lookout Mountain, Georgia. He is also the co-author of the book, Helping Without Hurting in Short-Term Missions.What Is Poverty—Really?Americans often define poverty materially—a lack of necessities, such as food, clean water, clothing, or shelter. As a result, short-term mission trips often center around distributing goods or completing construction projects. But when you ask materially poor individuals around the world what poverty means to them, they describe feelings of shame, helplessness, and a lack of dignity.This reveals a disconnect: while we view poverty as a lack of material possessions, those experiencing it often define it in relational, psychological, and spiritual terms. True poverty is brokenness in relationship—with God, self, others, and creation. That insight should transform how we approach short-term missions.Even the most well-intentioned trips can do harm. Why? Because those going on these trips may carry pride, believing they have the answers or that their culture holds superiority. In contrast, those in materially poor communities often struggle with inferiority. That combination can worsen the very sense of worthlessness we hope to alleviate.Rather than reinforcing this brokenness, we should pursue humility and listen more than we speak. The goal should not be to "fix" but to restore—to foster healthy relationships that reflect the image of God in all people.Presence Over ProjectsShort-term trips shouldn't be about what we accomplish but about who we become in relationship.If poverty is rooted in broken relationships, then the solution is to restore people to right relationships. And that doesn't come through handing out supplies or completing a checklist—it comes through deep, lasting community.That's why the local church is God's primary instrument of restoration. Mission teams should support these churches in a “backstage” role—serving quietly, praying faithfully, and encouraging leaders who are already embedded in the community. Sometimes the best thing you can do is babysit the pastor's children so he and his wife can enjoy a night out. That kind of support strengthens the long-term work far more than any single project ever could.The Sending Church's Role in Long-Term SuccessMany short-term trips blur the line between gospel and Western culture. But the gospel transcends culture—and so should we.Colossians 1 reminds us that Christ is the Creator and Sustainer of all things. That means He is already at work in every community, regardless of how impoverished it may seem. When mission teams enter a new culture, they should approach it reverently, as if stepping onto holy ground. There is beauty in every culture, and highlighting it can be healing. Simply asking, “What's good here?” affirms the image of God in others and begins the work of restoration.How can the sending church help ensure long-term success in missions?It's not about executing a flawless trip. It's about fostering enduring partnerships with local ministries. That includes showing up year after year, offering consistent prayer and support, and being safe spaces where local leaders can be authentic. Success is not measured by how much we build but by how deeply we walk with others through life.Fundraising as a Form of DiscipleshipShort-term mission fundraising can also be reframed. Young people often feel pressure to produce tangible results in exchange for financial support. But if the goal is to learn and grow, that's a worthy investment.Go as a learner and communicate that clearly to your supporters. When trips are part of a larger discipleship journey, they become valuable not only for those being served but also for the transformation of those who participate.Still, we must be wise stewards of God's resources. Many trips could be more effective if better embedded in a long-term process of learning and partnership.Short-term missions, when done right, can become powerful instruments of healing and restoration. But they must begin with a correct understanding of poverty and a humble willingness to be shaped by the journey.For churches preparing for trips this summer, Helping Without Hurting in Short-Term Missions is more than a resource—it's a reorientation of purpose.To explore Dr. Fikkert's work or find resources and group studies designed for churches, visit Chalmers.org.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I just bought a new SUV and was offered bi-weekly payments. Would it be advantageous to opt for this option over monthly payments to minimize interest?My mother passed away in October of last year, and my sister and I are going to sell her house probably next month. My question is, in Texas, there's no inheritance tax. But is there an inheritance tax federally?We have some friends who asked us to give them a letter of giftedness to help them buy a home. They're asking for $17,000, for which they have $17,000 in cash that they will exchange for our check immediately. We don't understand why they can't just use their own cash, and we're not sure if helping them would cause difficulties for us or them.Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's New Quarterly MagazineThe Chalmers CenterHelping Without Hurting in Short-Term Missions by Brian Fikkert and Steve Corbett with Katie CasselberryWhen Helping Hurts: How to Alleviate Poverty Without Hurting the Poor... and Yourself by Steve Corbett and Brian FikkertWisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on Money (Pre-Order)Look At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA) or Certified Christian Financial Counselor (CertCFC)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions most days at (800) 525-7000.

In this soul-shifting episode of Wake Up Happy, Sis!, LeAnne Dolce and Sheronda Sealey cracked open the conversation that so many Black women have been silently living through—high-functioning depression masked by hustle culture and overachievement. Sparked by a viral Instagram video, this episode got all the way real about how unprocessed childhood trauma, emotional neglect, and the need for validation often drive us to collect degrees, titles, and accolades—while quietly breaking down on the inside.LeAnne and Sheronda didn't just talk about the pain. They showed us how to name it, own it, and begin healing from it. From the origins of emotional avoidance to creating new rituals of rest and radical self-love, this episode served as both mirror and medicine. With powerful personal stories, hard-earned wisdom, and a whole lot of humor and heart, this was a healing session in real time.Sis, you don't have to hustle to be whole. This episode is your permission slip to just be well.SEO Keywords: high-functioning depression, trauma response in Black women, emotional healing, overachievement burnout, Black women mental health

As a Jesus Follower, You Live in a World of Hurting People; and You Have their Answer - Are You Sharing the Answer with Others? MESSAGE SUMMARY: Even though we are followers of Jesus, we live in a world of hurting people; but we have the answer to their pain. God has blessed us so that we might be a blessing to others, and He has healed us so that we might provide God's healing powers to others. He has saved us so that we might be His ambassadors. While we have the answer, we keep the answer to ourselves in the way we live and by not speaking about Jesus to others. Before Jesus Ascension, He instructed us, in Matthew 28:16-20, that we must “Go” and tell others about the answer, which the Gospel provides, by “making Disciples”: “Now the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain to which Jesus had directed them. And when they saw him they worshiped him, but some doubted. And Jesus came and said to them, ‘All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.'”. Therefore, you must communicate the Answer of Jesus and the Gospel to others through both your “talk” and the way that you “walk” in your life. Walk the walk and talk the talk to share Jesus with others. TODAY'S PRAYER: Lord, I acknowledge that I prefer to ignore and deny my pain and loss. I struggle with seeing how resurrection life can come out of death. Grant me the courage to pay attention to what you are doing, and to wait on you — even when everything in me wants to run away. In Jesus' name, amen. Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 114). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: Today, because of I am filled with the Holy Spirit, I will not be controlled by my Heartlessness. Rather, I will walk in the Spirit's fruit of Kindness. “The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.” (Galatians 5:22f).

Acne is one of the most mentally taxing physical struggles out there. We're talking about your face. The thing everyone sees when they, well, see you. Today's guest, Katie Stewart, knows all about this. Katie started developing adult acne from coming off of birth control while she was smack dab in the middle of a film + tv career. Yeah, not ideal. Being on camera all day while feeling insecure about her skin, Katie decided to take matters into her own hands and heal herself from the inside out. Now, Katie is leading a movement - using functional health testing + nutrition to help her clients heal acne from the inside out. On today's show, we're diving into all things skin from the holistic and functional lens, with a special emphasis on the unique challenges high-performing (and therefore... high stress) women face when it comes to skin health and acne.
