Welcome back to the Word on Fire Show. I'm Matthew Petrusek, senior director of the Word on Fire Institute and the host of the Word on Fire Show. Thank you for joining us. In 2025, Word on Fire Catholic Ministries celebrated its twenty-fifth anniversary. And in October of that same year, Bishop Barron and Word on Fire CEO Fr. Steve Grunow gave a presentation at the Good News Conference in Orlando in which the two men took a deep dive into Word on Fire's origins. How did it begin? What were its animating principles? What were some of its earliest strategies? Where did the name "Word on Fire" even come from? Why, in short, did Word on Fire develop the way that it did? Here to discuss these roots with Fr. Steve Grunow, in this first half of an hour-long conversation, is Bishop Robert Barron. Links: Word on Fire Institute: https://institute.wordonfire.org/   NOTE: Do you like this podcast?

"...we sell hope, because lots of times patients will come to us, they've got the med list this long, and they just think it's going to keep getting longer. We let them know that this is not what it has to continue being. We can actually make changes, and lifestyle medicine providers will, as appropriate, de-prescribe or decrease the dose on these medications. And from the Nursing perspective, it's about being very specific, so making the recommendations instead of saying, you know, eat more fruits and vegetables. You know, well, what's realistic for you at this time? What are you ready to do? So Nurse Coaches are the best at this because we're already used to being able to assess where the client is and what they're ready to make a move on." ~Karen Laing DNP, APRN, AGPCNP-BC, DipACLM, HWMC-BC, CHES, FPCNAAh-Ha MomentsExplore how Lifestyle Nursing and Integrative Nurse Coaching blend the art and science of Nursing to prevent, and even help reverse chronic disease with evidence-based lifestyle interventions.Learn the six pillars of lifestyle medicine:  sleep, stress, movement, nutrition, social connection, and avoiding risky substance, and how Lifestyle Nursing makes them practical and doable for real patients and real Nurses.Hear how Nurses can use a Lifestyle Nursing framework to “sell hope,” collaborate with patients, and confidently stay within scope while talking about food, movement, and behavior change.Discover how Integrative Nurse Coaching + Lifestyle Nursing give Nurses structure, language, and heart-centered tools to support patients, communities, and themselves.Feel inspired as Karen reminds us that Nurses are powerful, trusted advocates who can model lifestyle change and help transform a broken healthcare system from the inside out.Links and ResourcesIntegrative Nurse Coaches in ACTION! podcastLifestyle Nursing: A Lifestyle Medicine Framework for Nurses courseFunctional Nursing: A Functional Medicine Framework for Nurses courseFunctional Nursing + Lifestyle Nursing Dual Certificate PathwayLifestyle Nursing bookHealth Promotion and Disease Prevention for Advanced Practice bookKaren's emailIntegrative Nurse Coach Academy I Integrative Nurse Coach FoundationWe provide nurses with a global community for learning, networking, and reconnecting.

The Auburn Tigers shake up SEC recruiting with a bold influx of Group of Five transfers—can Alex Golesh's strategy compete with the league's elite? Zac Blackerby and Brian Smith break down how Auburn leads the SEC with over 65% of Transfer Portal additions from G5 or lower programs, sparking debate about talent level, roster building, and the impact of bringing in familiar faces from Golesh's USF squad.The conversation spotlights key players like Byrun Brown and newcomers on the offensive line, questions whether experience at lower levels will translate in the nation's toughest conference, and compares Auburn's approach to Indiana's James Madison pipeline. Will Auburn's talented transfer receivers and revamped running back room offset concerns in the trenches?

Welcome to the Find Your Fierce Podcast, where you will discover your fierce, unlock an unstoppable mindset, build unbreakable courage, and completely transform how you show up every single day. I'm your host, Jill Allen, and I'm so glad you're joining me today. Today, we're talking about the in-between season of life. That space where everything seems fine on the outside, but inside—you're stretched, tired, and wondering if this is really what "living" looks like. I'm sharing my own journey through this in-between season—the myths we've bought into about busyness and "being strong," and how to trade striving for a life that feels full, peaceful, and alive. If you've ever found yourself doing all the things yet missing joy, presence, or peace, this episode will speak right to your heart. Together, we'll redefine success, rediscover what truly matters, and take practical steps toward thriving—not just surviving. Here's what we dive into: 01:26 — Why so many women are holding it all together yet feel utterly drained behind the smile. 02:48 — My behind-the-scenes truth: when perfection and performance hid exhaustion and frustration. 03:55 — What the "in-between" really feels like… mental clutter, fatigue, and a deep longing for peace. 05:55 — The truth: real success isn't found in grinding harder but in living with purpose, peace, and obedience. 08:05 — How to lead and live differently… anchored, on purpose, and fully alive without the burnout. 09:10 — The wake-up signs you're ready for change: running on obligation instead of inspiration, losing your joy, craving more meaning. 10:29 — Using reflection and journaling to pinpoint where you've been surviving and envision what "fully alive" could look like. 13:08 — Small, powerful shifts… setting boundaries, caring for your body, and starting your mornings grounded in God. 15:30 — Building awareness and honesty so your current life aligns with the woman you're becoming in this next season. Key Takeaway: "Living constantly on empty is truly not a badge of honor. It's a warning light… That is often where God starts inviting you into something different, not louder, not bigger, just different, a different way."-Jill Allen "Success isn't built on hustle, but on obedience and peace and purpose… Fully alive, deeply anchored, purpose on fire without burning yourself to the ground." -Jill Allen And coming soon, there's a brand-new workbook that will walk you through all of this step by step, so you can actually live it out in your everyday life.

Send us a textWhat if confidence isn't something we build later in life… but something we slowly learn to unlearn?In this heart-opening episode, Alex is joined by two powerful collaborators—artist Nadia & project partner Danielle—for a deeply personal conversation about Free to Be Me, a children's book that's quickly becoming a movement.What started as a quiet moment during a breathwork session (and a breastfeeding cuddle) has grown into a bold vision: helping the next generation of leaders stay connected to who they truly are—before the world teaches them otherwise.Together, the 3 explore why language matters so much in shaping belief, identity, and self-worth from the very beginning. Alex shares how her background in neuroscience, education, and leadership coaching—combined with becoming a mom—radically heightened her awareness of the words children hear every day… and the invisible stories those words plant.You'll hear:Why phrases like “I'm busy” or “be careful” can quietly shape lifelong patterns of burnout and fearHow affirmations like “I can do this” become embodied beliefs when children are invited to truly own themWhat it means to raise children who feel seen, loved, and enough exactly as they areHow art becomes a bridge between emotion, identity, and belongingWhy this book is being intentionally co-created—with families, children, and the wider communityNadia offers a beautiful behind-the-scenes look at her creative process, sharing how she captures not just what a child looks like, but how they feel. Danielle grounds the conversation by weaving together the purpose, pacing, and importance of doing this work with care, integrity, and heart.✨ Be Part of the StoryFree to Be Me is now officially available for pre-order, and this episode marks the beginning of its next phase.In the coming weeks, we'll be opening a crowdsourcing initiative that invites families, parents, grandparents, and supporters to help co-create the illustrations that bring this book to life. From full-page scenes to individual portraits, this project is being built with community, not just for it.If this conversation resonated with you—if you believe in raising children who feel confident, capable, and free to be themselves—this is your invitation to be part of something meaningful.

High-impact leaders don't spend more time deciding. They decide less — because their standards already made the call.Here's what most leaders miss. What drains them isn't the volume of decisions.It's having to make the same ones over and over again because expectations were never made clear.High-impact leaders play a different role. They set standards, define expectations, and reinforce them consistently.Today, I want to show you how to define your leadership principles, communicate them clearly, and use them to coach performance, navigate hard conversations, and create decision clarity across your team.

Dennis Meador is the CEO of The Legal Podcast Network. DM has been an entrepreneur since he was a teenager, building businesses in everything from shoveling snow to SEO before finding his fit helping attorneys share their voices. A lifelong communicator from his years as a pastor to his more than 20 years in legal marketing, DM believes the best ideas don't come from selling, they come from conversations.  WHAT'S COVERED IN THIS EPISODE ABOUT HOW FAQ PODCASTS HELP LAWYERS DIFFERENTIATE Eighty-two percent of people use the internet to find their attorney. They type in a search, get hundreds of results, and every lawyer looks the same. With no way to distinguish expertise, potential clients default to asking how much it costs. The legal profession has become commoditized, turning skilled attorneys into interchangeable service providers competing on price alone. The solution isn't more traditional marketing. It's conversations. Founder-led, authentic content where lawyers answer the specific questions their ideal clients are asking. FAQ-style podcasts give attorneys the opportunity to demonstrate their expertise, show they understand client problems, and position themselves as the obvious choice before a prospect ever picks up the phone. In this episode of The Lawyer's Edge, Elise talks with Dennis Meador of The Legal Podcast Network about why expertise needs to be visible to be valuable, how podcasting creates authority through conversations instead of sales tactics, what lawyers get wrong about giving away knowledge for free, and the multiple ways podcasts generate business beyond download numbers and ad revenue. 2:06 - Why 82% of clients search online and what that means for lawyer visibility 3:34 - How commoditization has driven down hourly rates over the past decade 6:51 - Founder-led, authentic marketing is what resonates with today's clients 8:14 - Why FAQ-format podcasts are the best way for lawyers to differentiate 10:33 - The two biggest objections lawyers have about sharing expertise publicly 13:36 - Why posting too much content won't chase away the clients you actually want 16:24 - Authority podcasts are designed to inform potential clients, not brag 18:21 - How to create a year's worth of evergreen podcast content 21:25 - Using patterns in client stories instead of specific confidential details 23:23 - The nuts and bolts of podcast ROI for lawyers 26:40 - Monetization strategies beyond ad revenue and sponsorships 33:23 - Turning 30 minutes of recording into a month of marketing content 35:29 - The curse of knowledge: explaining things like you're talking to an eight-year-old 37:03 - Cumulative learning and why repeating yourself actually delivers value MENTIONED IN CONVERSATIONS AS AUTHORITY: HOW FAQ PODCASTS HELP LAWYERS DIFFERENTIATE AND ATTRACT CLIENTS The Legal Podcast Network | LinkedIn Dennis Meador on LinkedIn Get connected with the coaching team: hello@thelawyersedge.com The Lawyer's Edge SPONSOR FOR THIS EPISODE Today's episode is brought to you by the Ignite Women's Business Development Accelerator, a 9-month business development program created BY women lawyers for women lawyers.

Scaling healthcare brands shouldn't mean sacrificing local trust, but for many growing systems, that's exactly what happens. On this episode of Ignite, Ashley Petrochenko, Cardinal's VP of Brand Marketing, sits down with Kim Craven, Director of Field Marketing at Ethos Veterinary Health, to unpack how multi-location healthcare organizations can scale sustainably without losing the local relevance patients rely on. Drawing from her work supporting 140+ specialty and emergency hospitals, Kim shares how strong marketing foundations, not shiny tactics, are what actually unlock growth at scale. The conversation breaks down why centralized data and attribution matter, how local storytelling builds confidence in moments of anxiety, and where AI fits once the basics are done right. The stakes are real. As budgets tighten and expectations rise, healthcare marketers need strategies that drive growth while protecting trust and experience. You will learn: How to scale local healthcare brands without diluting credibility Why patient stories outperform generic brand messaging What a frictionless digital front door really looks like How attribution and AI support smarter growth decisions If scaling without breaking trust is on your roadmap, this is the episode to queue up next.

Haley interviews Anthony D'Ambrosio, a film producer, writer, and director as well as the founder of Sherwood Fellows. This episode discusses his film Triumph of the Heart about the martyrdom of St. Maximilian Kolbe. Haley and Anthony explore the powerful medium of film and how it can shape the imagination. And they consider the importance of letting stories of heroic suffering (like Kolbe's) shape young people so that they have the tools to face suffering when it comes, accompanied by the saints and by Christ who suffers with us.

Send us a textReady to celebrate a win… and notice what happens next?What if the very thing you've been quietly holding in your heart is ready to be shared—not perfectly, but now?In this episode of Unleashed & Unstoppable, Alex and Carol invite you into a deeply real, behind-the-scenes conversation about intention, visibility, and the courage it takes to bring something meaningful into the world. What starts as a celebration of Alex's children's book Free To Be Me officially opening for pre-orders becomes a powerful exploration of what happens in our brains, bodies, and nervous systems when we choose to go public with what matters most.This isn't just a conversation about launching a book. It's about launching yourself into the next level—without burning out, overcomplicating the process, or waiting for “perfect.”Together, Alex and Carol reflect on:Why done really is better than perfect—and how simplicity creates momentumWhat's actually happening in your nervous system when fear, tension, or doubt shows up during growthHow celebrating small wins releases the neuro-chemicals that help you move through resistance instead of retreatingThe power of declaring your intention out loud and letting your community support youWhy staying connected to the why matters more than obsessing over the howHow early beliefs around worthiness, safety, and love shape our leadership—and why it's so powerful to rewire them early (for ourselves and our children)You'll also hear Alex share vulnerably about the journey of bringing Free To Be Me to life—from the spark of an idea while nursing her daughter, to navigating visibility, discomfort, and expansion as the book enters the world. It's a reminder that growth doesn't have to feel forced—and that your body's reactions don't mean you're doing it wrong. They often mean you're doing something brave.As you listen, consider this:What's the idea, goal, or desire you've been holding close that's asking for air this year?Who's in your corner to help you celebrate, reflect, and keep moving forward?What would change if you trusted the process instead of trying to control every step?Tune in, reflect, and let this episode remind you that your dreams don't require perfection—just intention, support, and the willingness to take the next step.Pre-order your copy of Free To Be Me and be part of the movementContact Carol on IG to explore Carol's retreats and trans

High-performing leaders don't start the year asking how to do more.  They start by deciding what no longer deserves their attention.That's the difference most leaders miss. Because effort isn't the constraint anymore.  Focus is.And the leaders who create real momentum don't pile goals on top of goals. They intentionally create space.Today, I want to show you what high-performing leaders let go of—and how that decision becomes the foundation for doing less, but better. Let's dive in.>> Links mentioned within

Adam Severson is the Chief Marketing and Business Development Officer at Baker Donelson, a leading national firm with more than 700 lawyers and 25-plus offices in the United States, primarily in the southeastern U.S. Adam's role is unique compared to many who hold that title in that he spends a lot of his time meeting with clients and actually selling the firm's services. Adam is a past president of the Legal Marketing Association and a Hall of Fame member. He's also a Fellow in the College of Law Practice Management. WHAT'S COVERED IN THIS EPISODE ABOUT EXECUTIVE PRESENCE Executive presence can seem hard to define. Many people think you either have it or you don't. But Adam Severson frames it differently. When you walk into a room or lead a pitch meeting, others are asking themselves whether they can take you seriously and whether you instill confidence. That assessment happens fast, and it's based on more than just what you say. The lawyers who are best at client development aren't necessarily the ones trying to be the smartest or most interesting person in the room. They're the ones who show up prepared, ask thoughtful questions about what's actually happening in a client's business, and then follow through when they promise to find an answer. Adam calls that gap between what people say they will do and what they actually do the "say-do gap." Closing it builds trust faster than almost anything else, and most people never even realize they're leaving it open. In this episode of The Lawyer's Edge, Elise Holtzman talks with Adam Severson about what executive presence actually looks like in law firms, why imposter syndrome stops people from even trying to develop it, and how lawyers can build credibility through preparation and genuine curiosity rather than trying to have all the answers. 2:09 - How Adam defines executive presence  3:16 - The three elements of executive presence  5:26 - Executive presence vs. confidence and whether you can have one without the other 6:22 - Practical behaviors to demonstrate executive presence 8:53 - Being interested in others matters more than being interesting 10:27 - Using data to build credibility with lawyers and practice groups 15:07 - How executive presence impacts business development and client retention 15:32 - The "say-do gap" and why following through on what you promise matters 21:10 - Imposter syndrome keeps people from trying to develop executive presence 22:14 - The perfectionism problem and why you don't need all the answers 25:07 - Lessons learned from Adam's own career building executive presence 28:20 - Modifying the approach by showing your work instead of just stating the conclusion 30:38 - Don't make assumptions about who you're talking to 34:06 - Why self-awareness matters more than confidence Mentioned in Executive Presence: How to Turn Skill into Influence Baker Donelson | LinkedIn Adam Severson on LinkedIn Get connected with the coaching team: hello@thelawyersedge.com The Lawyer's Edge SPONSOR FOR THIS EPISODE Today's episode is brought to you by the Ignite Women's Business Development Accelerator, a 9-month business development program created BY women lawyers for women lawyers.

Most healthcare marketing breaks down when patient demand outpaces real clinical capacity. On this episode of Ignite, Ashley Petrochenko, Cardinal's VP of Brand Marketing, sits down with Joseph McLean, Director of B2C Marketing at Synergy Health Partners, to explore why patient acquisition only works when it is built around provider availability, operational reality, and access. Joseph shares how aligning marketing spend with physician schedules, clinic capacity, and patient urgency creates more predictable growth and less wasted budget. The conversation unpacks how capacity-driven marketing changes everything from bidding strategy to channel mix, and why close collaboration with operations and scheduling teams is essential for scalable patient acquisition. You will learn: How to align patient acquisition with real provider availability Ways to reduce wasted ad spend when schedules are full Why capacity visibility should guide media strategy and budgets How reviews, access, and outcomes influence booking decisions If patient acquisition feels unpredictable or inefficient, this episode will change how growth is approached.

People who join or support government designated hate groups face 15 years jail under new legislation in the wake of the Bondi terrorist attack. MPs today scrambling to get across the detail of the laws, to be voted in just a week, with concerns already around some religious freedom exemptions.

In a recent episode of the Joe Rogan show, evolutionary biologist and public intellectual Bret Weinstein observed that two emerging features of contemporary societies, especially, though not exclusively in the West, are challenging the very meaning and purpose of human life: 1) the decoupling of human sexuality from human reproduction—defining sex primarily as recreational and 2) with the rise of AI and robotics, the real possibility that having a job will become entirely optional in the future. By secular standards, pursuing both of these goals seems entirely rational, if not laudable: raising children and going to work are, indeed, challenging, so why shouldn't we live in a world in which both become increasingly rare? Weinstein, however—who doesn't profess adherence to any religious tradition—suggests that humanity may lose something important, if not essential, if we continue down this path. Is he right to be concerned? Is it, in fact, wise to relegate having children and going to work—which defined how most people spent most of their adult lives throughout history—entirely to the realm of subjective preference? Or, in seeking ever greater freedom from these responsibilities, are we undermining what it means to live a fully human life? A listener asks: How can I respond to "God loves me the way I am"?

Every January looks the same on the surface. New goals. New priorities. Fresh energy. Big intentions.And yet—by March—most leaders are already back on the endless treadmill of reaction mode.Not because they lost motivation. Not because they lack discipline. But because they started the year with the same operating system that burned them out last year.If you want something different, you have to do something different.  If you stay on the same treadmill, you will get the same results. Acceleration without clarity doesn't create momentum, it creates more friction.Today, I want to reframe how the most effective leaders intentionally start the year and invite their team into the process of co-creating success in the year ahead. Let's dive in.>> Links mentioned within

Hey friends — it's Amy.Today's episode is a powerful conversation about igniting something inside of you — your confidence, your expectation, and your willingness to grow.Because if we're honest, most people don't lack potential…They lack expectation.They lack confidence.And they've gotten a little too comfortable staying where they are.In this episode, I'm talking about why confidence isn't something you wait to feel — it's something you activate. Expectation works the same way. What you anticipate, you experience. And growth? Growth always asks you to step outside of what feels safe before it ever feels rewarding.We dive into the tug-of-war every human feels between certainty and growth. We want stability — but we also crave movement. And when we choose comfort for too long, life starts to feel tight… like a coat that no longer fits, yet we keep putting it on anyway.If you've felt restless, stretched, or aware that something needs to change — that's not failure. That's awareness. And awareness is the beginning of transformation.This episode will challenge you to: • Raise your internal standard • Stop repeating habits that no longer serve you • Expect more — and act like it • Commit to growth, even when it feels uncomfortable2026 doesn't need more hype.It needs intentional decisions.My hope is that today's episode helps you stop negotiating with fear and start moving forward with clarity, courage, and conviction.You're not behind.You're not stuck.You're just being invited to grow.Connect With Us:Website: https://www.youaremore.comFree Download: 5 Steps to Win Through AdversitySocial Media: Follow us on Facebook and InstagramEmail: amy@amywienands.comEpisode Minute By Minute:00:00 – Igniting confidence, expectation, and growth for a new year02:20 – Why most people want change but don't experience it05:15 – Confidence is activated, not discovered08:10 – Expectation: the invisible force shaping your life11:30 – Certainty vs. growth: why comfort can quietly cost you15:00 – When life starts to feel tight, not peaceful18:25 – Why discomfort often signals growth21:40 – Releasing habits that no longer fit who you're becoming25:10 – Raising your internal standard28:30 – Making a commitment to grow in 202631:00 – Final encouragement and mindset shiftBe intentional, stay focused, and remember you are more!

An Essay in Aid of a Grammar of Assent was Newman's most difficult work. While not a formal epistemology (theory of knowledge), Newman prompted a movement away from modern epistemology, stressing certainty that is best found in logic and mathematics, to common sense epistemology, affirming truth that is not absolutely certain. Bishop Barron explains why this epistemology is proper to religious knowledge, which includes notional and real assent.   Topics Covered: Why assent is not certitude  Religious Liberalism  Notional and Real Assent  Conscience  Links: Article: A Meditation on the Grammar of Assent Video: Dr. Reinhard Huetter on Newman Word on Fire Institute: https://institute.wordonfire.org/   NOTE: Do you like this podcast?

St. Pope John Paul the II memorably observed that the Catholic Church comes from the eucharist and that the eucharist, in turn, comes from priests. As Bishop Barron noted in a recent letter to his diocese, "by an inescapable logic [therefore] no priests, no Church." We should add, however, that priests come from bishops, which expands the ecclesial logic to this: no bishops, no priests; no priests, no eucharist; no eucharist, no church. In other words, bishops not only hold an important administrative position within the Church; tracing their authority back to the apostles and, ultimately, to Jesus Christ himself, they constitute the very sacramental and liturgical foundation of Catholicism itself. That, to say the least, is a weighty responsibility. So what is it like to be a bishop? How does one come to hold this office? What, specifically, do bishops have authority over–and what don't they have authority over? What kind of relationship do they have with each other and with the Holy Father, the pope? What are their day-to-day obligations and activities?  And what are some challenges they face that both clergy and laity may not be aware of? A listener asks what made Bishop Barron want to be a priest. Topics Covered: 01:38 | Bishop Barron's Thanksgiving in Chicago 02:45 | The origins of the office of bishop 04:51 | The theological dimension of the bishop's role 06:41 | The liturgical symbols of the office 10:45 | Bishop Barron's coat of arms 12:12 | How does one become a bishop? 16:10 | How are dioceses formed? 17:20 | Relating bishop to archbishop 18:51 | Understanding the bishop's authority 20:03 | What is a chancery? 21:03 | Essential tasks of the bishop 29:38 | Bishop Barron's approach to his official duties 33:01 | The meaning and authority of a conference of bishops 37:19 | Myths about Catholic bishops 40:06 | Listener question: What made you become a priest? 41:41 | Join the Word on Fire Institute   Links: United States Conference of Catholic Bishops: https://www.usccb.org/ Word on Fire Institute: https://institute.wordonfire.org/   NOTE: Do you like this podcast?
