 “You cannot learn the Self, you cannot learn Consciousness, you cannot learn Love, you cannot learn Trust, but you can learn how you deny that.” After an essential experience of self-realization, we can re-identify with the definitions and concepts we hold about ourselves in our mind. How do we resolve the paradox of recognizing oneself as pure consciousness and being human, living an ordinary life? In this lively exchange, Gangaji speaks to the “ABCs” or  the “how” of falling back into patterns of egoic identification.    Learn more about Gangaji  Gangaji's Event and Program Schedule About Finding Home and Gangaji's Media Library

Curtis Morley is an author, coach, speaker, and "emotionologist" who has been an entrepreneur for most of his life. He is the author of The Entrepreneur's Paradox, a Wall Street Journal bestseller. He also has a forthcoming book titled Counterfeit Emotions. His work focuses on helping people, including entrepreneurs, with personal development and growth. He has founded multiple companies and worked with many Fortune 100 businesses. He has also been recognized with awards such as Entrepreneur of the Year and has been included in the Inc. 500/5000 Hall of Fame. Morley's work and speaking engagements often center on the concept of "counterfeit emotions"—feelings that may seem authentic but can lead to destructive cycles of disconnection. He has developed a framework to help people identify and replace these emotions with authentic ones to live a more fulfilling life. Links Transcript available with the video in the Zion Lab community The Entrepreneur's Paradox: How to Overcome the 16 Pitfalls Along the Startup Journey CounterfeitEmotions.com/recovery RecoveryNotSobriety.com Highlights Curtis focuses on the myths surrounding pornography addiction. The discussion emphasizes the distinction between sobriety and recovery, exploring how understanding emotions can lead to more effective healing. Key Insights Sobriety vs. Recovery: Sobriety measures how long one can abstain from pornography, while recovery focuses on understanding and processing underlying emotions. True recovery involves addressing the root causes rather than merely avoiding the behavior. Myth of Willpower: Overcoming pornography addiction is not solely about willpower. Many individuals struggle with deeper emotional issues that drive their behaviors, making it essential to address these emotions rather than just the actions. Shame vs. Guilt: Guilt can be a motivating emotion that encourages individuals to make amends, while shame leads to disconnection and despair. Understanding this distinction is crucial for effective recovery. Connection and Community: Building connections and fostering community can significantly aid recovery. Isolation often exacerbates addiction, while supportive relationships can provide the necessary encouragement and accountability. The Importance of Processing Emotions: Curtis introduces the "whole" method for processing emotions, which includes witnessing emotions, harmonizing through breathing, opening the mind to triggers, leading one's life, and editing the meaning of past experiences. Leadership Applications Creating Safe Spaces: Latter-day Saint leaders can foster environments where individuals feel safe to discuss their struggles with pornography and other issues without fear of judgment, encouraging open dialogue. Focus on Emotional Health: Leaders should prioritize understanding the emotional triggers behind behaviors rather than just addressing the behaviors themselves. This approach can lead to more meaningful support and healing. Encouraging Community Support: Leaders can facilitate peer support groups or mentorship programs that promote connection among members, helping individuals feel less isolated in their struggles and more empowered in their recovery journey. 00:02:15 - Understanding Sobriety vs. Recovery 00:06:49 - The Difference Between Sobriety and Recovery 00:09:06 - Emotional Triggers and Leadership 00:10:08 - The Myth of Sobriety 00:12:12 - Transformational Recovery 00:13:27 - Sobriety is Miserable, Recovery is Peaceful 00:15:02 - Taking Your Demons to Lunch 00:18:08 - Addiction to Shame 00:19:09 - Addressing the Root Causes 00:20:21 - The Loop of Shame and Addiction 00:22:36 - Guilt vs. Shame 00:24:06 - Identifying and Surfacing Demons 00:26:44 - The Importance of Connection 00:29:34 - The Role of Community in Recovery 00:30:17 - The Whole Method Explained 00:36:21 - Overview of the Myths The award-winning Leading Saints Podcast is one of the top indep...

This Sunday, Tyler launched The Next Ten sermon series! The message reminded us that the church is called to embody both spiritual justice (grace and forgiveness for the lost) and social justice (love and dignity for the marginalized), just as Jesus did. Over the past decade, the Love the Ville movement has impacted Louisville through schools, nonprofits, immigrant ministries, and church partnerships—fueled by radical generosity and service. Now, it's time to take the vision even further. For the next 10 years, we are stepping into three bold new initiatives: Build a multipurpose outreach center on our Brownsboro campus Plant a new campus in Central Louisville. Start a Love the ‘Ville Hub for immigrants.   Our LTV Missiology The Love the 'Ville Lifestyle–We unleash Jesus' love - every day, everybody, everywhere. In the home, workplace, school, city, and church.   5 Founding Principles of Love the 'Ville: Making a Difference Locally – Staying rooted in Louisville, knowing our neighbors by name, and meeting real needs close to home. Identifying the Real Needs of Our City – Not assuming but listening. We learn from principals, nonprofit leaders, and longtime residents. Instead of saying “Here's what we do,” we ask, “How can we help?” Empowering the Best Partners – Supporting the strongest nonprofits, schools, and churches for greater, lasting impact. Redefining Church – Reshape how people see church: not political, not detached, but a shining light pointing to Jesus. Love the ‘Ville is intentionally rooted in the church. By staying connected to Matthew 5:14–16, the movement exists to be salt and light, showing good deeds so that people give glory to God, not to human institutions. Doing This for the Long Haul – We're in it for the long run. God blesses longevity, and we are committed to faithful service in our city.

The central theme of our discussion revolves around the profound impact of influences and idols on our lives. We delve into the complexities of how the cultural phenomena surrounding us shape our identities and beliefs, often blurring the lines between beneficial influences and detrimental idols. Through a candid examination of personal experiences and societal examples, we aim to illuminate the necessity of discerning what we allow to influence us, particularly in an era rife with pervasive media and social pressures. Our conversation invites listeners to reflect on their own lives, encouraging a critical assessment of the voices they heed and the values they uphold. Ultimately, we contend that the most worthy influence we can embrace is that which draws us closer to God and His teachings, guiding our paths with clarity and purpose.Takeaways: The episode emphasizes the critical distinction between influences and idols, highlighting how they shape our behavior and beliefs. We acknowledge that while external influences can impact our thoughts, it is essential to take responsibility for our own actions and choices. The discussion includes the importance of being aware of the media and messages we consume, as they can subtly alter our perspectives and values. We explore the idea that our true focus should be on God and His teachings, rather than allowing secular idols to dominate our lives.

Veronique de Rugy critiques US tax "carveouts," identifying them as inefficient special interest deductions that often fail to incentivize desired behaviors, citing employer health insurance and mortgage interest deductions. While a flat tax would streamline the system and boost economic growth by focusing on consumption, de Rugy emphasizes that no tax system alone can resolve the severe US debt crisis; crucial reforms to Social Security and Medicare are indispensable. 1870 SIEGE OF PARIS

It's week two of Wider Lens. This week, Jonathon shares his story of recognizing his addiction, confronting the root causes beneath it, and finding freedom through Christ. From misordered priorities to the hidden struggles many Christians face, this conversation explores recovery, sanctification, and the hope that healing is possible. We are praying that this episode encourages you to reflect, reprioritize and hold tightly to the hope of Jesus!   Episode Highlights: Understanding addiction as a spectrum allows for earlier intervention and support.

Embracing those with messy sanctification stories fosters healing and growth.  Identifying and correcting disordered priorities is crucial for recovery. Quotes from Today's Episode: Part of what kept me in a disordered relationship with alcohol is what the devil uses “I don't look or act like what I think an alcoholic looks like.” - J. Seidl Radical vulnerability, when you start practicing it, it's contagious and the devil hates it. -J. Seidl Anything that is misordered is disordered.-J. Seidl The mommy wine juice culture, mommy needs this to be mommy, right? It's become accepted.-J. Seidl I finally was able to stop drinking when I stopped trying to stop drinking. When I shot for Jesus, I got sobriety thrown in.-J. Seidl If you don't get to the root of those, it's just going to be something else. -J. Seidl Jesus is always going to meet us there. He's not going to let us down.- Dr. Kim I was ultimately addicted to escapism. -J. Seidl The muscle memory was forged and formed at a very young age. -J. Seidl A Wider Lens: Questions for Self Reflection What habits or priorities in my life might be “good things” that I've elevated above God, and how are they shaping my heart? Where might I be numbing pain or avoiding deeper heart work instead of bringing it honestly before the Lord?

Worksheet: Your Relapse Prevention BlueprintWhat if you could stop living in constant fear of relapse and start building real confidence in your recovery?In this powerful episode of The Addicted Mind Podcast Plus, hosts Duane and Eric Osterlind reveal how to create a practical relapse prevention blueprint that transforms your recovery from a terrifying tightrope walk into a journey of empowerment and self-trust.Too many people in recovery live with that constant, low-level hum of anxiety asking "What if I mess up?" This fear doesn't protect you—it actually makes you more vulnerable by keeping you rigid, stressed, and unable to think clearly when challenges arise.The Osterlinds share a game-changing approach rooted in cognitive behavioral therapy that shifts you from reactive fear to proactive planning. Instead of hoping you'll stay strong in difficult moments, you'll have a written plan for exactly what to do when you feel most vulnerable.This episode breaks down the dangerous "all or nothing" thinking that turns a momentary slip into a complete relapse. You'll learn why the National Institute of Drug Abuse defines addiction as a "chronic relapsing disorder"—not to discourage you, but to remove the crushing shame that keeps people stuck and help you plan skillfully for real-life challenges.The hosts walk you through creating your own personalized coping cards for high-risk situations, whether that's the excited energy you feel on Friday afternoons or the moment an old friend calls to invite you out. You'll discover how to identify your unique internal and external triggers and develop specific, actionable responses for each one.Most importantly, this episode reframes relapse from a moral failure to valuable data that makes your blueprint stronger. When you approach recovery this way, you're not just surviving—you're actively managing your healing journey with compassion, wisdom, and strategic planning.Your recovery is worth planning for, and this episode gives you the tools to do exactly that.Key Topics• Creating a proactive relapse prevention blueprint instead of living in fear • Identifying your personal high-risk situations and unique triggers • Building specific coping cards with actionable strategies • Overcoming "all or nothing" thinking that turns slips into full relapses • Using your brain when it's "online" to prepare for when it's "offline" • Reframing relapse as learning data rather than moral failure • Moving from passive victim of triggers to active manager of recoveryTimestamps[00:01:00] - Introduction: The tightrope analogy and why fear-based recovery doesn't work [00:03:00] - The crushing weight of "all or nothing" thinking after a slip [00:06:00] - The proactive prevention model: Using your brain when it's online [00:09:00] - Getting practical: How to build your first blueprint component [00:12:00] - Eric's personal example: Friday afternoon triggers and planning ahead [00:15:00] - The power of grace: Why slips don't have to become full relapses [00:16:00] - Action steps and accessing the free worksheetSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode of "Crafting a Meaningful Life," host Mary Crafts welcomes Jill Schulman, a revered voice on the subject of bravery and author of "The Bravery Effect." The discussion is centered on the concept of courage as a scientific, learnable skill, essential for reaching a well-lived life. Jill shares insights from her research and book, which redefine bravery beyond the conventional stereotypes of fearlessness and into meaningful action in the face of fear. Mary and Jill dive deep into understanding bravery as critical to overcoming life's challenges and growing into one's authentic self. This episode explores how bravery is not just about major heroic acts but involves everyday courage to pursue meaningful goals. Jill elucidates the psychological frameworks and evidence-based strategies for cultivating bravery, drawing from her background in positive psychology and personal experiences, including her transformation from a military officer to a motivational leader in corporate settings. About the Guest: Jill Schulman is an expert in bravery and the science of overcoming fear. She has studied positive psychology at the University of Pennsylvania under Dr. Marty Seligman, the founder of the field. Jill is a former Marine, corporate professional, and now runs her own leadership development company. She is an author and a speaker, noted for her book, "The Bravery Effect." Jill's work focuses on teaching evidence-based techniques for building courage and resilience in personal and professional settings.   Key Takeaways: Bravery is defined as voluntary action in the presence of fear towards a noble or worthwhile goal. The path to crafting an extraordinary life necessitates everyday bravery and challenges conventional notions focused solely on comfort and avoiding discomfort. Bravery can be cultivated through repeated practice, much like building a muscle, by engaging with fears step-by-step. Happiness and well-being are deeply linked to achieving meaningful and challenging accomplishments, not just experiencing momentary positive emotions. Identifying self-concordant goals—those aligned with your authentic values—is crucial for meaningful bravery and personal growth.   Resources: Jill Schulman's Website: jillshulman.com Book: The Bravery Effect by Jill Schulman MaryCraftsInc.com By tuning into this episode, listeners will gain a profound understanding of the role of bravery in crafting a meaningful and fulfilling life.

Doing podcasts can be such a joy and it was with Jordan Sprigg. This is the beauty of social media and the internet. My son and I found images of Jordan's sculptures online and we both gravitated to the man's work. It's just so interesting. He uses found material to build these beautiful sculptures of wildlife. Fish, ibex, rhinoceroses horses, etc.He seemed like a really creative and genuine person on his Instagram account so we reached out to him in Australia to do the podcast. He lives over by in Perth (Or at least not too far from Perth) and he said, sure, I'll do a podcast with you.You can feel the joy in this man's work. I recommend  watching it on YouTube, just because you can see the smiles and the wonderment of how he became the artist that he is today.He was a kid that drew and played with Legos, but he went to university for psychology and that's where he thought he was going end up. You see, he's a fourth generation farmer, in Australia. Then one day he art world  finally opened up to him when he visited a sculpture exhibit on a beach in Australia.He was able to show his work through Instagram, and his account blew up to over a million followers. So and we talk about that, what is that like to have so many followers and how he deals with all of the attention. Jordan even had one video that had over 50 million views. So I had to ask him what's it like to go viral, you know? You might be  surprised about his thoughts on something like that. I know I was.That's what this whole podcast is about. Identifying those unique voices in the world. In this case, it's an artist who creates because he must create. So I hope you enjoy. This is Art Dealer Diaries Podcast episode 363 featuring Jordan Sprigg.

There's a story in the Bible most people overlook… but it's actually a blueprint for multiplying money. In just a few verses, Jesus shows us that making money is a game—one with rules, risks, and rewards. Some play to win. Others bury their chance and lose it all. But the ones who get it? They unlock an unfair advantage that changes everything. Once I saw it—I couldn't unsee it. Let's unpack it together.

In this enlightening conversation, Marni Battista and Steffani LeFevour delve into the concept of soul assignments, exploring how our life experiences shape our spiritual journeys. They discuss the importance of recognizing chaos as an opportunity for growth, the power of choice in relationships, and the significance of daily practices for self-awareness. Steffani shares her personal journey of overcoming challenges and the process of writing her upcoming book, emphasizing the need for radical acceptance and conscious creation in our lives. Takeaways   Soul assignments are experiences our soul desires to have. Chaos can be viewed as an opportunity for growth. We have the power to choose how we respond to our experiences. Radical acceptance of our circumstances empowers us. Identifying soul assignments can lead to personal growth. Limiting beliefs can be reframed to serve us better. Relationships can be seen as soul assignments that require work. Daily practices can help us connect with our soul assignments. Writing a book can be a significant soul assignment. We must consciously create the life we want. Sound Bites   "Chaos is an opportunity." "We always have that choice." "We stand in our power." 1. Chaos as a Soul Assignment (03:39) “Every external opportunity of chaos is an opportunity for us to learn who we are and show up as who we want to be.” marni-battistas-studio_podcast-… Explanation: Chaos doesn't have to be a trap. When seen as a soul assignment, even the hardest circumstances become moments of radical choice—either to spiral into negativity or to rise into clarity and purpose.     2. Rewriting Limiting Stories (19:26) “It's not the experience, but the meaning that I choose to place on the experience that really matters most.” marni-battistas-studio_podcast-… Explanation: Painful experiences don't determine worth or destiny. What creates transformation is the story that follows. Shifting the meaning from “I'm broken” to “I'm resilient” builds the foundation for growth, love, and empowered living.     3. Radical Acceptance in Relationships (22:55) “When we identify a soul assignment, we stand in our power. And from that place, we can make decisions going forward that really serve us.” marni-battistas-studio_podcast-… Explanation: Accepting a relationship or challenge as a soul assignment doesn't make you passive—it awakens power. This awareness frees you from old patterns, fuels new choices, and deepens love while creating healthier boundaries.

Guest Sarah Elkins is a keynote speaker, Gallup StrengthsFinder coach, and the author and podcast host of Your Stories Don't Define You, How You Tell Them Will. She is the principal at Elkins' Consulting. She is the organizing genius behind the annual No Longer Virtual Summit, a small business summit for those looking for a community of professionals to grow with - personally, professionally, and thoughtfully. In her work with coaching clients, Sarah guides individuals to enhance their communication by using storytelling as the foundation of their collaboration. What she's realized over years of coaching and podcasting is that the majority of people don't realize the impact of the stories they share - on their internal messages, and on the people they're sharing them with. Her work with leaders and people who aspire to be leaders follows a similar path to the interviews on her podcast, uncovering pivotal moments in their lives and learning how to share them to connect more authentically with others, to make their presentations and speaking more engaging, to reveal patterns that have kept them stuck or moved them forward, and to improve their relationships at work and at home. Summary In this episode, Sarah and I discuss our key takeaways from her recent "No Longer Virtual Summit." We reflect on sessions that focused on finding a target audience and identifying one's "content personality type." We also explore how they've applied these concepts to their work. I share how I've narrowed the focus of my podcast to center on curiosity and innovation, while Sarah talks about incorporating storytelling and the StrengthsFinder assessment into her public speaking coaching. We both emphasize the importance of vulnerability, personal stories, and targeting a specific audience to build authentic connections and achieve career clarity. Key Takeaways Narrow your focus to find your target audience. Instead of trying to appeal to a broad market, solopreneurs should "shoot with a rifle, not with a shotgun" by focusing on a specific audience based on their values and the problems they solve for clients. Embrace your "content personality type" for business development. Identifying how you work best, such as in-person or through reflection, can guide how you build your business and get people to care about your services. Use storytelling to build authentic connections. Sharing personal stories that demonstrate your skills and values can create a deeper, more memorable connection with others. This is particularly effective for leaders and professionals in networking situations.

What emerged is now known as the Driscoll Theory, a framework that explores:What drives POTS: high intracranial pressure, vagus nerve dysfunction, neurotransmitter disruption, and systemic vascular irregularities.How to intervene: restoring vagus nerve function, reducing inflammation, supporting acetylcholine activity, and managing oxidative stress.Practical tools: supplements like ParaSym Plus and NAC Max, targeted use of histamine blockers, and non-invasive approaches to improving quality of life.Emotional resilience: how she navigated years of invalidation, supported her sick child, and created POTS Rebels, a community for patients seeking hope and science-backed solutions.This conversation is both deeply personal and highly practical, offering clarity for patients, practitioners, and caregivers searching for answers.00:00 – 02:00 | Intro & sponsor message (Healthgevity) Healthgevity our sponsor : ⁠Website⁠ Enter: ONETHING for a 10% discount02:00 – 03:00 | Adam introduces Dr. Driscoll & her personal journey with POTS03:00 – 08:00 | The turning point: realizing medicine had no answers → “I'm on my own”08:00 – 13:00 | Discovering high intracranial pressure and what eye patterns reveal14:00 – 18:00 | The emotional toll & why she built the POTS Rebels community19:00 – 24:00 | The what: inflammation as the hidden driver of POTS25:00 – 33:00 | The how: vagus nerve, acetylcholine, nicotine patch experiment, and ParaSym Plus34:00 – 38:00 | Genetic predisposition, hypermobility, and EDS connections38:00 – 41:00 | Identifying intracranial pressure symptoms (coat hanger pattern, nausea, insomnia)41:00 – 44:00 | Framework for healing: vagus support, histamine blockers, antioxidants45:00 – 48:00 | Take-home: “Never give up.

You're not exhausted because you lack discipline; you're exhausted because your worth has been wired to your output, your utility, your availability. In this episode, I expose the core fracture that no “productivity hack” or self-care checklist can touch: the buried belief that rest is only for the unneeded, the unworthy, the lazy.  Let's tell the raw truth: You don't just overcommit, you've made proving your value a full-time job. You apologize for resting, fill any silence with more tasks, and confuse exhaustion with excellence. You don't know how to stop, because stopping feels like disappearing. This isn't self-help cheerleading. This is strategic rewiring. Here's how we break the old circuitry: Spot the costly story running your life, and trace its toxic influence on your body, peace, and relationships.Interrupt the reflex to over-function by asking: Is this real strength, or is it anxiety wearing a mask?Shift from survival autopilot to conscious leadership of your own wellbeing, by recognizing that rest is not an indulgence, but wisdom in action.  If you're seeking comfort, not clarity, this episode isn't for you. But if you're ready to stop living as a resource and start leading from internal authority, this is your moment. Hit subscribe, connect, and take the first step: notice, name, and reclaim your own rhythm. The reset starts here.  [00:00] The truth about burnout & the belief you're not enough [02:30] Identifying patterns of overworking [05:10] Why rest isn't weakness, it's wisdom [08:00] The real cost of constant productivity
