Worksheet: Healing Power of ConnectionAsk people what the hardest part of addiction was, and they often won't say the drugs or the alcohol. They'll say the loneliness. Because addiction, at its core, is about isolation and shame. It's that crushing feeling of being in a crowded room and feeling completely invisible. It's the belief that if people really knew you—the real you with all your secrets and shame—they would run away.But what if the medicine for that loneliness isn't just sobriety? What if the medicine is people?In this powerful episode of The Addicted Mind Plus, hosts Duane Osterlind and Eric Osterlind explore what they believe is the single most powerful predictor of long-term recovery success: connection. Not willpower. Not perfect meetings attendance. But belonging to a tribe, a community, a place where you're not alone.Addiction demands secrecy. It thrives in the dark. Over time, you stop answering the phone, you stop going to events. You isolate to protect the addiction, but you end up trapping yourself with your own worst thoughts. And even in recovery, that instinct to hide can still linger. You might feel like a burden, or you might think, "I can do this on my own. I don't need help." But that's a dangerous lie. When shame says "I am bad" and isolation says "I am alone," relapse becomes almost inevitable.The vicious cycle works like this: we isolate ourselves because we feel shame, and then that isolation breeds more shame. Breaking that cycle requires doing the one thing that feels most unnatural—reaching out. As journalist Johan Hari famously summarized from his research, "The opposite of addiction is not sobriety. The opposite of addiction is connection." But shame tells us we're not worthy of that connection, so we don't risk it.The evidence is overwhelming. Whether it's AA, NA, SMART Recovery, or group therapy, the data shows that people who engage in supportive community have significantly better outcomes than those who try to go it alone. It's not just about having people around you—it's about shared experience. When you walk into a room and hear someone tell your story, there's a profound shift. The shame starts to evaporate because you realize: "I'm not the only one. I'm not crazy, bad, or sick. I'm not alone."Group settings provide a buffer against stress. When we're with safe people, our nervous system can actually co-regulate. We feel safer physically and emotionally. The community provides accountability—someone to notice if you're struggling. It provides encouragement—someone to cheer when you win. And perhaps most importantly, we borrow their hope until we can rebuild our own. We lean on their energy when ours runs out.But finding community can feel overwhelming, especially if you have social anxiety or fear of judgment. That's why Duane and Eric break it down into two simple, manageable steps you can take this week.Step one: Identify just one potential connection point. This could be looking up an online meeting and putting it in your calendar. It could be texting one friend and saying, "Hey, can we grab coffee?" Or maybe it's looking for a sober hiking group or book club. Just find one place where healthy people are gathering that interests you.Step two: Practice active listening in one conversation. Connection is a two-way street, but sometimes we're so anxious about what we're going to say that we forget to listen. This week, in just one conversation, put down your phone, look someone in the eye, and listen to understand—not to reply. Reflect back what you heard: "It sounds like you had a really tough day." This simple act builds instant intimacy and trust.Remember, by participating in community, you aren't just getting help—you're giving it. Your presence helps someone else feel less alone, and that can be a powerful engine for your own self-worth and shame resilience.You don't have to do this alone. Reach out, connect, and let the healing begin.Key Topics• The isolation trap of addiction: How addiction thrives in secrecy and loneliness, making connection the true antidote to recovery• Shame as a barrier to connection: Understanding why shame tells us we're not worthy and keeps us from reaching out for help• The opposite of addiction is connection: Johan Hari's powerful research showing community as the single most powerful predictor of recovery success• Co-regulation in community: How being with safe people allows our nervous systems to calm down and feel safer physically and emotionally• Two actionable steps for building connection: Identifying one connection point and practicing active listening this week• From lone wolf to pack member: Moving from vulnerable isolation to being part of a supportive network that protects and sustains you• The gift of giving back: How your presence in community helps others feel less alone and builds your own sense of purposeTimestamps[00:01:30] - The stark reality: The hardest part of addiction isn't the substances—it's the crushing loneliness[00:03:00] - The vicious cycle: How shame and isolation feed each other and make relapse almost inevitable[00:05:00] - Johan Hari's breakthrough insight: "The opposite of addiction is not sobriety—the opposite is connection"[00:06:30] - The profound shift: What happens when you hear someone tell your story in a room full of people[00:07:00] - Co-regulation explained: How safe people help calm our nervous system when we can't do it alone[00:08:00] - Actionable Step #1: Identifying one potential connection point you can take this week[00:10:00] - Actionable Step #2: Practicing active listening to build instant intimacy and trustSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Starting a podcast isn't hard, but it often feels that way because we try to solve everything before we ever begin. In this episode, I break our usual format with a solo "mini-sode" and focus on what actually stops most people from getting started. This is a shorter, more intentional conversation about clarity, purpose, and sustainability, the things that matter long before equipment, formats, or platforms enter the picture. I talk about why you do not need a perfectly defined niche or audience to begin, how getting clear on the problem you are showing up to help solve creates momentum, and why the experience you create matters more than sounding polished. If you have been stuck in planning mode, this episode is a reminder that you do not need every answer before you start, just enough clarity to take the next step.

A rainy, gritty victory at the Linc! The Eagles move to another win, but it was the defense that did the heavy lifting while the offense searched for a rhythm. We're breaking down the 13-12 nail-biter and looking at what's next for the Birds and the rest of Philly sports.

Most people don't fail at nutrition because they lack discipline.They fail because they were taught to chase extremes instead of building a life they actually enjoy living.This episode challenges the “New Year, New You” mindset and explores what sustainable health truly looks like, without guilt, shame, or the need to start over every few months.Welcome to the Happy, Healthy, Strong Podcast.Hosted by Adam Lane, this show explores what it really takes to live a healthier, stronger, and more fulfilling life, through smarter nutrition, intentional movement, mindset, and habits that actually last.Episode HighlightsIn this episode, Adam sits down with KRYSTAL BOLDUC of Life Nutrition to unpack why so many nutrition plans fail and what works instead.Krystal shares her personal journey of breaking the vicious diet cycle, the reasoning behind rebranding her company from Grow or Die to Life Nutrition, and why health isn't just about food. The conversation explores primary vs. secondary nutrition, emotional versus physical hunger, and how small, consistent changes lead to real, lasting results. This episode is a reminder that food should support life—not control it.Episode OutlineAdam Lane explains the role of nutrition, movement, mindset, and strength in long-term health.The meaning behind “Life Nutrition” and why the brand moved away from “Grow or Die”.Why the “New Year, New You” mentality often backfires.Krystal's personal experience breaking free from the diet-restart cycle.Why drastic changes lead to burnout and rebound behaviors.The difference between primary nutrition (life inputs beyond food) and secondary nutrition (what we eat)How poor primary nutrition leads to people existing instead of fully living.The dangers of quick-fix thinking and why consistency beats intensity.Momentum, habit stacking, and the cruise ship analogy for behavior change.Understanding emotional eating vs. physical hunger.Identifying triggers behind mindless or habitual eating.Practical examples of managing emotional hunger.Food psychology and rebuilding a healthy relationship with food.Building sustainable habits through small, imperfect steps.Patience, self-compassion, and long-term thinkingEpisode Chapters00:00 Intro03:56 Discussion on New Year's Resolutions and Sustainable Change07:51 The Importance of Primary and Secondary Nutrition08:08 Challenges of Quick-Fix Mentality14:23 Navigating Nutrition and Emotional Eating27:02 The Role of Food Psychology33:17 Building Sustainable Health HabitsAction TakenDevelop and plan the next podcast episode idea referenced in the conversation.Schedule and follow up on the suggested future episode topic.Reopen and accept new no-charge Life Nutrition consults after being closed for over a year.Announce availability and begin scheduling consults.Prepare and share the emotional vs. physical hunger chart used in coaching to support listener awareness.ConclusionThis episode reinforces a simple but powerful truth: health isn't built through restriction, extremes, or starting over.

The Bible warns us that from the moment we are saved, we are hunted. In this sermon, Pastor Joe Rice preaches on Proverbs 6:5 and Proverbs 22:3, showing how Satan's hunters seek to destroy destinies, discourage new converts, and derail believers. From false prophets to debt, distractions, and even well-meaning family, the enemy uses many hunters. Learn how to stay aware, protect your spiritual life, and move from merely surviving to thriving.This message is a wake-up call for every believer: don't be ignorant, don't wander on the edges—stay in the middle of God's will, outlast the attacks, and live in the power of Christ's resurrection.https://TakingTheLandPodcast.comSUBSCRIBE TO PREMIUM FOR MORE:• ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe for only $3/month on Supercast⁠: https://taking-the-land.supercast.com/⁠• ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe for only $3.99/month on Spotify⁠: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/taking-the-land/subscribe⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠• ⁠Subscribe for only $4.99/month on Apple Podcasts⁠: https://apple.co/3vy1s5b⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠00:00 Missionary Work and Heritage00:28 Honoring Missionaries and Their Sacrifices03:17 The Value of New Converts06:45 Surviving Your Many Hunters09:44 Understanding the Nature of Being Hunted12:32 The Consequences of Ignorance15:45 Satan's Early and Persistent Attacks18:24 The Role of the Church Community21:25 Warnings and Lessons from Experience27:00 The Deceptive Forces in Destiny29:45 Identifying and Overcoming Hunters of Destiny32:31 The Role of Family and Friends in Our Journey38:05 Surviving and Thriving Amidst Challenges43:47 Encouragement and Self-Strengthening52:09 The Power of Resurrection and PerseveranceShow NotesALL PROCEEDS GO TO WORLD EVANGELISMLocate a CFM Church near you: https://cfmmap.orgWe need five-star reviews!

In this week's “Best Of” episode, we present two stories of people having to navigate a new world.Part 1: Sean Bearden has never been interested in education, but when he's incarcerated at the age of 19, he finds a passion for physics. Part 2: When Victoria Manning decides to get a cochlear implant, she fears losing her identity as a deaf person. Sean Bearden is a Ph. D. candidate in Physics at UC San Diego, researching the application and development of memcomputing systems, a novel computing paradigm. Identifying as a nontraditional student, Sean went from dropping out of high school to receiving the National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellowship and Alfred P. Sloan Fellowship. To alleviate the stress that is inevitably coupled with graduate research, he enjoys training Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu at the P5 Academy in San Diego. Visit seanbearden.com to learn more. Deaf from the age of four Victoria was raised in a family who instilled a high value on educational achievement and a strong sense of social justice. Victoria gained a bachelor degree in New Zealand (without the support of sign language interpreters) followed by a Masters degree in the United States before returning to New Zealand in the late 1990's. Victoria's deaf identity began in her close relationship with her older deaf brother, both raised orally, and later flourished in the New Zealand Deaf community and the culture-affirming experience of attending a Deaf university (Gallaudet) in the United States. Victoria's first career was in psychology but she soon gravitated to human rights/disability rights work and moved into a series of strategic and policy roles across central government and NGOs. Victoria's life highlights include being the key government advisor on the development of the New Zealand Sign Language Act 2006; representing New Zealand disabled people's voices at the United Nations in Geneva in 2014; and receiving a Queen's Service Award for her services to the deaf and disabled communities in 2015. Most significantly, she appreciates the privileges and joys that come with being a wife and mother of two.

Merry Christmas from Media Gratiae. In this special episode, Jordan and John conclude their series on meditating on the incarnation of Jesus. They explore what it means that Christ took on our flesh without sin, how the incarnation shapes our reconciliation with the Father, and much more. Of particular focus is a practical application that has been especially meaningful to Jordan: how the incarnation of Jesus equips us to wage war against and mortify our own sin. Christ is the only human to fully experience the weight of temptation, yet He never yielded. He endured to the very end, glorifying the Father fully. We pray that this episode, along with the linked Scriptural meditations and the series as a whole, nourishes your soul this Christmas season and strengthens you in the year to come 25 Meditations on the Incarnation: https://shop.mediagratiae.org/pages/advent-meditations Good Tiding of Great Joy by Charles Spurgeon https://banneroftruth.org/us/store/devotionalsdaily-readings/good-tidings-of-great-joy/ Jordan recommends this Christmas Devotional: https://grace-ebooks.com/library/J.

As this year comes to a close, I wanted to slow things down and really look at how my word for 2025 actually showed up in my life. I've shared before that I no longer set New Year's resolutions. Instead, I choose a word that helps ground me in how I want to show up and what I want to experience. This year, that word was co-create. As someone who has always relied on planning, structure, and execution, this word challenged me to loosen my grip and trust timing instead of forcing outcomes. It became a way to check myself when things felt rushed, heavy, or resistant, and to ask whether I was truly aligned or just trying to muscle my way through. One of the clearest examples of this showed up around selling my house. Early in the year, I pushed forward because it seemed logical, but everything felt off. There was resistance, frustration, and a sense that nothing was flowing. When I stepped back and let go of the timeline, things shifted. Later in the year, when it felt right, the process unfolded easily. The right realtor, better communication, aligned decisions, and even an offer before the house officially hit the market. The contrast between those two experiences taught me more than any checklist ever could. This Wise Walk is an invitation to reflect on how your own word supported you, redirected you, or surprised you this year, and to notice the difference between moments that felt forced and moments that felt fully aligned. Did you choose a word for the year that helped ground or center you in how you wanted to show up for yourself? How did that word show up in your life throughout the year? In moments when you felt off track, did your word help redirect or re-center you in any way? What awareness did you gain by setting and living with a word for the year in 2025? Early in the year, were there times when the word didn't feel fully embodied or integrated yet? Can you share an example of a moment when you consciously returned to your word to reground yourself? Can you share an experience where you fully embodied your word for the year? What did that aligned experience feel like in your body or emotions? When you compare moments that felt misaligned with those that felt aligned, what differences do you notice? How did alignment or misalignment affect how you showed up for yourself or for others? I hope your word for the year brought meaning into your life, especially during moments that felt challenging. I also hope you can look back on this past year with appreciation for what it offered you. I'll be sharing my word for 2026 soon, so be sure to tune in. And if you'd like, send me an email or a DM and let me know how your word shaped you this year. I'm wishing you and yours a very happy holiday, and I'll see you next Thursday for another Wise Walk. In this episode: [04:09] As I reflect back on how co-create showed up for me in delightful ways, I realized it was a really great word for me.  [05:05] I want to trust the process that God or the Universe has a plan for us. Co-creation helped me stay present and be more patient. [06:16] I don't want to miss the lessons in the experience by rushing to achieve something. Creating openness might show me that there's something better out there. [08:00] When I have that energy for co-creation, magical things can be revealed.  [09:14] Identifying resistance helps us notice obstacles that come up. A great example of this was when I was selling my house and the realtor wasn't a great fit. [10:02] I'm going to co-create from a place of trust not a place of forcing it. [11:50] The second time I listed my house, everything flowed. [13:32] The word co-create helped me take a step back, reevaluate, and see if I needed to be more open to create with divine timing. [15:12] Another cool way that co-create showed up for me was taking a cross-country trip with my dogs and showing up at my aunt's house. I had no way of knowing this was going to happen. She didn't even have the ranch yet. [15:45] I now embody the trust of co-creation. I love that I'm leaning more into it. [16:53] I hope you reflect on how your word helps you bring out the best qualities in yourself and in your life. [17:53] I'm also truly grateful for co-creating with you. Memorable Quotes: "A word for the year isn't about fixing yourself. It's about grounding how you want to show up in your life." - Mary Tess "When things feel forced and heavy, that resistance is information. It's telling you something isn't aligned." - Mary Tess "Sometimes releasing the timeline is what allows the right outcome to show up." - Mary Tess "When I stopped fixating on the outcome, I created space for something better to emerge." - Mary Tess Links and Resources: Mary Tess Rooney Email Heart Value Facebook | LinkedIn | Twitter | Instagram

Introduction Are you walking through a hard season and wondering where God is in it? If you're feeling overwhelmed, discouraged, or confused by what God is allowing, this episode is for you. In today's episode, we explore four people from the Bible who endured deep trials—and what their responses reveal about how God works in difficult seasons. You'll learn four powerful questions you can ask yourself when life feels heavy, questions that can shift your perspective, strengthen your faith, and bring clarity even when answers feel far away. This episode is especially for Christian women navigating hardship, whether that's health struggles, emotional exhaustion, uncertainty, or a season that simply doesn't make sense yet. What You'll Learn in This Episode Why hardship doesn't mean God has abandoned you How your response to trials can change your future Biblical examples of faith during suffering Four life-changing questions to ask God in difficult seasons How God often provides before we even notice Biblical Lessons on Trials, Faith, and God's Provision 1. The Israelites in the Wilderness: Recognizing God's Provision The Israelites experienced miracles—freedom from Egypt, the parting of the Red Sea—yet still found themselves wandering in the wilderness. Their story reminds us that complaining and unbelief can blind us to God's daily provision. God provided manna every day, even while they grumbled. Life-Changing Question #1: What is the “manna” God has already placed in your life that you may be overlooking? God often supplies what we need before we recognize it. 2. Hagar: Seeing the Provision That Was Always There Hagar's story is one of pain, rejection, and survival. Alone in the wilderness with her son, she believed death was inevitable—until God opened her eyes to a well of water that had been there all along. Life-Changing Question #2: What provision or answer might God be placing right in front of you that you can't see yet? Distraction, grief, trauma, and exhaustion can keep us from noticing God's help. 3. Paul in Prison: Using Hard Seasons for God's Glory Paul endured imprisonment, beatings, and hardship—yet instead of giving up, he used his suffering to encourage others. Some of the most impactful books of the New Testament were written while he was in chains. Life-Changing Question #3: How can God use this hard season for His glory? God doesn't waste suffering when we remain willing. 4. Joseph: Serving Faithfully While Waiting Joseph's story reminds us that delay is not denial.

Episode Overview In this episode, John Kitchens sits down with Dr. Matt Townsend for a powerful, reflective conversation on emotional resilience, leadership maturity, and what high performers must leave behind to move forward. As the pace of business accelerates and uncertainty continues to rise, John and Matt unpack why most leaders feel overwhelmed—not because they lack ability, but because they're carrying outdated thoughts, unhealthy emotions, and destructive habits into the future. This episode is a deep dive into growth through subtraction: letting go of what no longer serves you so you can step into clarity, confidence, and CEO-level leadership. If you're heading into a new season of business or life and feeling stuck, this conversation will help you reset, refocus, and lead with intention. Key Topics Covered Why Everything Feels Faster (and Heavier) The acceleration of business, information, and expectations How "snacking culture" and constant noise erode focus and clarity Why overwhelm is often a signal—not a failure Leaving Behind Unhelpful Thoughts Common limiting beliefs leaders carry into every year: "I have to do it all myself" "My team can't perform" "I'm not good enough for this market" Why you can't solve problems at the same level of thinking that created them Identifying the thoughts you're most embarrassed to admit—and why those matter most Emotions, Energy, and Leadership Impact How unresolved emotions leak into tone, body language, and presence Why untransformed pain always gets transmitted to others Understanding the "second arrow": how emotional reactions cause more damage than the event itself Breaking the Loop: Thoughts → Feelings → Actions How feelings make thoughts permanent Why repeated emotional associations create stuck patterns Learning to separate events from identity and meaning The Observer Mindset The difference between being your thoughts vs. observing them Why awareness creates power and choice How emotional resiliency starts with noticing—not forcing—change Habits, Dopamine, and Self-Sabotage Cheap dopamine vs. earned dopamine How modern habits (phones, news, scrolling) quietly drain courage Why habits persist until you sit with their true cost Using mindfulness to reprioritize and dissolve unhealthy patterns Values as the Foundation for Growth Why goals without values don't stick Defining values as how you do the work—not just what you want A powerful exercise: writing what you want people to say about you on your 90th birthday Character Strengths & Sustainable Confidence Why knowing your strengths changes how you show up as a leader Using strengths as superpowers—not trying to "fix" weaknesses How self-awareness fuels confidence, resilience, and clarity Leadership Is Not a Solo Sport Why growth rarely happens in isolation The importance of mirrors, mentors, masterminds, and accountability How collaboration accelerates awareness and shortens the learning curve Resources & Mentions AuthenticHappiness.org – VIA Character Strengths Assessment Unwinding Anxiety by Judson Brewer Deep Work by Cal Newport Concepts from emotional resiliency, mindfulness, and cognitive diffusion John Kitchens Executive Coaching → https://johnkitchens.coach Final Takeaway You don't move forward by adding more—you move forward by letting go. When leaders release unhelpful thoughts, unresolved emotions, and unhealthy habits, they reclaim energy, clarity, and agency. True growth doesn't come from forcing change, but from awareness, values-driven action, and choosing to lead from your highest self—not your survival instincts. Happy Holidays everyone.

I sat down with author, speaker, and lawyer Justin Whitmel Earley and walked away reminded that discipline isn't just about doing more—it's about becoming more grounded. He shared how relentless ambition and life as a driven attorney led to panic attacks and burnout, and how he rebuilt through faith and daily spiritual rhythms. The smallest, most intentional habits shape my mind, my peace, and my purpose. Faith isn't just what I claim—it's what I practice every day.CHAPTERS:00:00 Introduction02:25 The Impact of Books and Personal Growth07:42 The Journey to Law and Mental Collapse12:55 Spiritual Habits and Life Changes23:40 Identity and Vocation34:56 The Gospel's Core Message38:30 Identifying and Overcoming False Idols43:02 The Role of the Body in Spirituality48:01 The Call to Serve Others55:20 The Journey of Intentional Fatherhood01:06:55 The Dual Nature of Strength01:13:04 The Role of Sabbath in Modern Life01:31:26 The Cornerstone of a Good Life01:36:47 Final Thoughts and ReflectionsJUSTIN WHITMEL EARLEYWebsite: https://www.justinwhitmelearley.com/Socials: @justinwhitmelearleyBooks: https://www.amazon.com/stores/Justin-Whitmel-Earley/author/B07P62QFW5?ref=ap_rdr&shoppingPortalEnabled=true&ccs_id=69ad8248-6298-4780-a33b-c900a2adfa62ORDER MY BOOK HERE:https://www.amazon.com/Go-One-More-Intentional-Life-Changing/dp/1637746210FOLLOW:Become a BPN member FOR FREE - Unlock 20% off FOR LIFEhttps://bpn.team/memberIG: instagram.com/nickbarefitness/YT: youtube.com/@nickbarefitness

As the year winds down, I always find myself in reflection mode—looking back at the goals I set at the beginning of 2025, evaluating what went well, what didn't pan out, and most importantly, what I learned along the way that will make me better at goal-setting moving forward. And let me tell you, goal setting is one of my absolute favorite things to do. I love the process of dreaming big, planning strategically, and mapping out what's next for my life and business. But if I've learned anything over the years of setting and tracking goals, it's that how you set your goals (and how you track your progress throughout the year) matters just as much as the goals themselves. You can have ambitious, exciting goals, but without the right assessment process and tracking systems, you'll constantly feel like you're falling short even when you're making real progress. Or worse, you'll keep setting the same goals year after year without understanding why they're not working. So today, I want to help you assess where you are right now with total honesty and zero guilt. Whether you absolutely crushed your 2025 goals and exceeded your own expectations, or you're looking at your list feeling like you fell short in several areas, this episode will help you reflect constructively and set yourself up for even more success in 2026. In this episode, I'm sharing 6 practical ways to assess your current goal progress and set better, more effective, more aligned goals for the new year. These strategies will help you understand what worked, what didn't, and how to create goals that actually stick.   Here's What You'll Learn in This Episode: How to conduct an honest goal inventory without self-judgment Why celebrating progress matters more than perfect completion Identifying successful systems and habits that moved you forward Recognizing patterns and obstacles that consistently derailed progress The importance of revisiting your "why" before setting new goals How to make goals specific and measurable for better tracking Breaking big goals into small, consistent, achievable actions Adjusting goals when life circumstances or priorities change Separating self-worth from goal achievement outcomes Setting smarter goals based on lessons learned from previous years   Here's a glance at this episode: [02:01] Honest Goal Inventory: Taking stock of achievements, in-progress goals, and what didn't happen (without self-criticism). [04:25] Progress Over Perfection: Why consistent effort and partial completion deserve celebration and recognition [08:02] Revisiting Your Why: Evaluating whether last year's goals still align with your current values and lifestyle. [11:09] Specific Goal-Setting: How to transform vague intentions into measurable, trackable targets.  [13:06] Self-Worth Reminder: Decoupling personal value from goal completion and embracing growth mindset.  

You're not burnt out. If anything, you're probably resentful. There's an emotion many creative business owners carry into the new year without even realizing it: creative resentment. It comes from the quiet frustration that grows when you're underpaid, overbooked, and undervalued—and no one is talking about it.In this episode, I break down what creative resentment actually is, how it creeps in, and how to release it so you can move into 2026 with clarity and confidence. Listen in as I share the three key reflection questions that every creative entrepreneur should ask themselves before setting goals or pricing for the new year.In this episode:How creative resentment shows up—and why it's not your fault.The boundary leaks and unsaid expectations that fuel resentment.Three powerful reflection questions to reset your mindset and business for the new year.Find It Quickly:01:26 - Defining Creative Resentment02:25 - Identifying the Causes of Resentment03:19 - Reflecting on the Past Year04:15 - Three Questions to Release ResentmentMore ways to connect:JOY MICHELLE INSTAGRAMWORK WITH JOY AS YOUR COACHJOY MICHELLE CO.

In this episode of the MaternalRX podcast on the Pharmacy Podcast Network, Danielle sits down with Dr. Tadeh Vartanian, a Pharmacist and Medical Lead with deep expertise in autoimmune diabetes. Drawing on years of clinical practice and research, Dr. Vartanian explains why early detection and precise diabetes classification can dramatically shift outcomes for people who are pregnant, planning pregnancy, or managing complex metabolic risks. This conversation delivers a practical, up-to-date overview of diabetes types, maternal risk considerations, screening strategies, and the emerging science behind autoimmune and genetic diabetes. And if you have never heard of monogenic diabetes, you will want to hear this episode! Understanding this category can immediately change how clinicians diagnose and treat patients. Diabetes types explained - How to differentiate type 1 diabetes, type 2 diabetes, gestational diabetes, and monogenic diabetes - Why type 1 is autoimmune and what loss of 80 to 90 percent of beta cells means for patient management - The phases of type 1 diabetes and the predictive power of autoantibodies - How monogenic diabetes presents differently and when to consider genetic testing - Which diabetes types can improve with targeted lifestyle interventions Diabetes screening and diagnostic testing - Why early screening is the most impactful action clinicians can take - When to use hemoglobin A1C, fasting glucose, and the oral glucose tolerance test - A clear explanation of the 50-gram and 100-gram Glucola tests used in gestational diabetes screening and diagnosis - How to identify autoimmune diabetes using autoantibody testing Autoantibody screening programs - TrialNet: the NIDDK-supported program offering at-home screening for people with a first-degree relative with type 1 diabetes - ASK (Autoimmunity Screening for Kids): now expanded to adults, with nationwide access through the University of Colorado laboratory - How these programs detect autoimmune diabetes before symptoms develop Genetics, autoimmunity, and diabetes research - How new genetic testing is reshaping the identification of monogenic diabetes - What autoimmune activity means in type 1 diabetes and why early detection matters - Current research, evolving guidelines, and clinical trial insights relevant to maternal health and diabetes care Diabetes and pregnancy - How diabetes influences pregnancy outcomes and why classification accuracy is critical - The long-term significance of gestational diabetes and its link to future type 2 diabetes - Clinical considerations for preconception counseling, prenatal care, and postpartum metabolic health - How maternal diabetes affects the long-term health trajectory of both parent and child Key takeaway from Dr. Vartanian: Screen early and use the right tools. Identifying diabetes risk before symptoms appear can change the course of care at every stage of pregnancy.

You follow Lindsay Manfredi's wild, non-linear path from merch table to main stage, and she shows you exactly how saying yes, showing up, and outworking your fear can change your entire trajectory. You hear how she moved to Florida at twenty chasing a rock-star dream, became an instant Cold superfan, and eventually landed the bass gig through a Twitter message that felt too unreal to be real. She talks candidly about law-of-attraction moments, why every Cold song has to matter, and where the line sits between authentic human creativity and formulaic or AI-generated music. Through it all, she reminds you that most fears never materialize and it takes the same effort to believe in yourself as it does to doubt yourself. Always Be Performing. From there, you shift into the discipline behind her artistry: preparing for tours months in advance, running the set nearly every day, and over-preparing so the stage actually feels fun. She shares how making the road feel like home keeps her grounded, and how her book “The Girl Who Cried Love” came from losing her sense of self and rebuilding true self-worth, not just confidence. You explore dropping habits that don't serve you, reconnecting with what you really value, and even why revisiting Mad Men taught her to only compete with herself. Finally, you wrap with a deep dive into in-ear monitor strategy, why a great mix beats great gear, and the small decisions that make performing sustainable for the long haul. 00:00:00 Gig Gab 513 – Monday, December 22nd, 2025 December 22nd: National Cookie Exchange Day Guest co-host: Linsday Manfredi NAMM coming up!

Are you stuck in a cycle of "push, push, push" but feeling like you're hitting a ceiling in your growth? Often, the barriers to our progress aren't our external habits, but the deep-seated belief systems and thought habits that drive our every move. In this episode, JP Nerbun, Nate Sanderson, and Betsy Butterick pull back the curtain on the "Operating Systems" of successful leaders. They dive deep into the five most common limiting beliefs that keep coaches and leaders stuck—from the trap of tying self-worth to productivity to the paralyzing need for certainty before taking action.   Whether you are a veteran coach or an emerging leader, this conversation will challenge you to stop merely "doing" and start examining the mindsets that define your success.
