Podcasts about Introspection

Gwenaelle Persiaux, psychologue. Dans ce moment extrait d'un épisode très écouté, je l'ai invitée à décortiquer quelque chose qu'on croit comprendre mais qu'on applique rarement à soi-même : la théorie de l'attachement.Dans cet épisode, nous parlons des quatre styles d'attachement, de pourquoi les évitants ont les zones aveugles les plus épaisses, et de pourquoi on peut être parfaitement compétent au travail tout en étant un désastre dans l'intimité. J'ai questionné Gwenaelle sur comment identifier son propre style sans se raconter d'histoires, et sur ce que le genre a encore à voir là-dedans.Citations marquantes"Si je suis dans un couple mais je ne l'investis pas vraiment, j'y suis sans y être, au moins je risque moins d'être blessée.""Plus on est insécure, plus il y a des défenses, donc moins on a accès à la connaissance de soi.""Ça ressurgit quand on devient parent. Ça ressurgit dans les grosses crises de couple. C'est là où on est beaucoup plus poreux.""On peut être sécure au boulot et puis, quand tu t'intéresses à leur vie amoureuse, c'est beaucoup moins sécure.""Plutôt que de le prendre avec la tête, je préfère toujours laisser parler le corps et la résonance du cœur."Big Ideas1. Les quatre styles ne sont pas des cases, mais des boussoles Sécure, évitant, anxieux, désorganisé : chacun correspond à une stratégie construite inconsciemment pour survivre à ses blessures d'enfance. Ce ne sont pas des étiquettes, ce sont des cartes de navigation intérieure. Pourquoi c'est important : comprendre le cadre avant de se chercher dedans évite les auto-diagnostics bâclés. Timestamp : 00:35 - 06:18*2. On peut être compétent là où on s'est sécurisé, blessé là où on ne l'a pas fait Un bon soignant peut être complètement dépassé dans son couple. L'expérience professionnelle construit une sécurité fonctionnelle, mais les noyaux traumatiques non résolus ressurgissent dans l'intimité. Pourquoi c'est important : le succès visible masque souvent une fragilité invisible. Timestamp : 06:40 - 08:53*3. Les évitants sont les champions du déni de leur propre profil Par définition, ceux qui évitent les émotions évitent aussi l'introspection. Leur zone aveugle est la plus épaisse. C'est souvent le regard de l'autre, conjoint ou ami proche, qui crée la fissure dans l'image qu'ils ont d'eux-mêmes. Pourquoi c'est important : l'auto-évaluation seule ne suffit pas. Timestamp : 10:47 - 11:56*4. Le genre n'est pas neutre dans le style d'attachement Culturellement, les hommes sont encore orientés vers l'inhibition émotionnelle (évitants), les femmes vers l'expression et la demande (anxieuses). Les études restent nuancées, mais l'observation clinique le confirme largement. Pourquoi c'est important : les conflits de couple rejoignent souvent ce croisement évitant/anxieux. Timestamp : 11:56 - 12:08*Questions posées dans l'interviewPeux-tu nous définir les différentes typologies d'attachement ?Est-ce que le style d'attachement est propre à la personne ou à la relation dans laquelle on se trouve ?Est-ce qu'on a le même style d'attachement dans toutes nos relations, professionnelles, amicales, amoureuses ?Comment identifier son propre style d'attachement quand on manque de recul sur soi-même ?Pourquoi a-t-on tendance à projeter le style de l'autre avant de regarder le sien ?Comment les défenses psychologiques bloquent-elles la connaissance de soi ?Quels outils concrets peut-on utiliser pour commencer à identifier son style ?Quel rôle jouent les personnes proches (conjoint, amis) dans ce travail d'identification ?Y a-t-il une différence de genre dans la répartition des styles d'attachement ?Dans quelle mesure la culture influence-t-elle l'expression ou l'inhibition émotionnelle ?Références citéesThéories et conceptsThéorie de l'attachement (cadre général) - mentionnée dès [00:35]Psychanalyse et notion d'inconscient, défenses psychologiques - [09:23]Concept de "noyaux traumatiques non résolus" (terminologie clinique) - [08:05]Notion de "persona" (étymologie grecque, masque) - [07:27]Ressources mentionnéesVidéos et livres sur l'attachement (non nommés explicitement) - [10:09]Timestamps clés (optimisés YouTube)00:00 - Introduction au "moment" Présentation du format et mise en contexte.00:35 - Les 4 styles d'attachement Gwenaelle pose les bases : sécure, évitant, anxieux, désorganisé. Une personne sur deux serait sécure. Les trois autres styles correspondent à des stratégies de survie psychologique construites face aux blessures d'enfance.02:06 - L'évitant : se protéger en ne sentant plus Profil détaillé du style évitant. Ces personnes ont appris que montrer leurs émotions était soit inutile (personne ne répondait), soit mal venu. Résultat : inhibition émotionnelle et distance relationnelle.03:39 - L'anxieux : seul, je n'y arrive pas Le style anxieux naît d'un environnement où les émotions débordaient sans être régulées. Ces personnes cherchent constamment validation, présence et réassurance. C'est de l'anxiété relationnelle, pas nerveuse.04:20 - Le désorganisé : le plus rare, le plus lourd Ce style oscille entre évitement total et demande fusionnelle, parfois d'une heure à l'autre. Toujours lié à des traumas lourds : maltraitance ou absence grave de figures parentales.06:18 - Style lié à la personne ou à la relation ? Le style s'homogénéise avec l'âge. C'est avant tout une manière d'être au monde, construite inconsciemment. Mais des subtilités existent : on peut être sécure au travail et désorganisé dans l'intimité.08:53 - Comment identifier son propre style ? Trois pistes : s'informer théoriquement jusqu'à ce que ça "résonne", interroger les proches qui nous connaissent vraiment, et si besoin, travailler avec un thérapeute. Les zones aveugles sont inversement proportionnelles à la sécurité.11:56 - Genre et attachement : les hommes évitants, les femmes anxieuses ? Observation clinique et culturelle : la société valide encore davantage l'expression émotionnelle chez les femmes, et l'inhibition chez les hommes. Ce croisement explique beaucoup de dynamiques de couple.

This week, Pastor Andrew reminds us that we should also be looking inward and examining ourselves. 2 Corinthians 13:5 5 Examine yourselves as to whether you are in the faith. Test yourselves. Do you not know yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you?—unless indeed you are disqualified.

Most people say they can't find the right mentor. The truth? They're not ready — and they're not qualifying. In this episode of the Abundance Mindset Podcast, Vinney Chopra and co-host Gualter break down Wealth Principle 30: learn to attract the right mentors.   Vinney shares the full origin story — arriving in America with just $7, knocking on doors 13 hours a day selling Bibles and encyclopedias for the Southwestern Company, and how seven books became his first mentors. He tells the story of his 40-year mentor, billionaire Spencer Hayes, whose business card simply read "Salesperson." Then he gives you the practical framework: how to qualify a mentor, how to make yourself worthy of one, and why "if the man is right, the world is right."   If you're building in real estate, raising capital, or just trying to get to the next level — this one's for you.   ⏱️ Timestamps 00:00 — "When the student is ready, the mentor appears" 00:50 — Wealth Principle 30: attract the right mentors 01:20 — Inside the 9-year mastermind (4 PM PST Wednesdays) 01:50 — Arriving in America with $7 — a Hindu man selling Bibles 02:30 — The 7 books that became Vinney's first mentors (Peale, Rohn, Carnegie, Dyer, Kiyosaki) 03:00 — 80-hour weeks knocking on doors in Atlanta 04:00 — Closing the engineering career: "I'm a salesperson at heart" 04:30 — Spencer Hayes: the billionaire mentor and the Park Avenue penthouse 06:00 — The business card that just said "Salesperson" 06:40 — Vinney's 5 books (including Hospitality Investing Made Easy) 08:00 — How to actually qualify a mentor (do they have the track record?) 09:00 — Introspection: finding the need within 10:00 — "If the man is right, the world is right" — the puzzle story 12:00 — Being open and worthy enough to be mentored 13:00 — Don't give up + the Tony Robbins lesson 13:30 — Find the top mentors in your business and study their path 14:30 — Hospitality is the name of the game right now 15:00 — "Bring the seed, not your need"  

This is the Q&A from after the talk sponsored by the Hindu Council of Australia in cooperation with the Australian School of Meditation and Yoga.The question was whether there is a distinction between Dharma and Sanatana Dharma? Acharya das concludes this Q&A session with the clarification that Sanatana Dharma is eternal and represents the soul's nature fully expressed in the spiritual dimension, and self-realization is accessible to everyone, as it is the uncovering of their eternal nature rather than being reserved for special individuals.The discussion covers sadhana (spiritual practice) as the means to attain spiritual goals, with meditation on spiritual sounds as the foundational practice. The teacher uses the analogy of fog being burned away by sunlight to describe how regular spiritual practice gradually reveals spiritual clarity and identity. Key components include meditation/chanting, cultivation of yoga wisdom (atma jnana), and spiritual association (sangha). Acharya das also addresses the transformation from ego-centered consciousness to God-centered consciousness, describing the journey from seeing oneself as the central enjoying agent to becoming an eternal servant of God.Chapters 00:00:00 Audience member sharing their understanding of Dharma 00:02:59 Progressive Nature of Vedic Dharma and Spiritual Advancement ‎ 00:06:53 Sadhana: The Practical Path to Self-Realization ‎ 00:10:37 Essential Elements of Spiritual Practice‎ 00:14:04 Transformation from Ego-Centered to God-Centered Consciousness ‎ 00:16:38 The Journey from Self-Centeredness to Selflessness ‎ 00:20:30 Practical Spiritual Living and Modern Challenges ‎ 00:23:31 Developing Consciousness and Introspection ‎ 00:27:41 Emotional Regulation and Practical Wisdom ‎ 00:29:27 The Eternal Nature of Sanatana Dharma ‎ 00:31:37 Universal Accessibility of Self-Realization ‎ 00:32:33 Concluding with Transcendental Sound Practice

Vous pensiez qu'en quittant le salariat, vous alliez enfin vous sentir plus libre et plus à votre place.Pourtant, beaucoup de femmes découvrent autre chose après leur départ.Elles changent de métier ou lancent leur activité, mais continuent à douter d'elles-mêmes, à chercher la validation extérieure ou à reproduire certains anciens mécanismes.Dans cet épisode de Parlons Introspection, je parle de ce moment souvent invisible entre transition professionnelle et reconstruction identitaire.Selon une étude KPMG menée auprès de 750 femmes dirigeantes, 75 % disent avoir déjà vécu un syndrome de l'imposteur au cours de leur carrière.Cet épisode s'adresse particulièrement aux femmes en reconversion, en transition professionnelle ou qui ont quitté le salariat sans réussir encore à retrouver pleinement leur place.Premier échange offertMon site Internet : https://catalysons-vos-atouts.com/Vous aimez cet épisode ?

On enregistre un 1er avril, et Christelle prévient d'emblée : une journée sans rire reste pour elle une journée un peu foutue. Le ton est posé.Christelle a fondé Musaé en mars 2020, à deux semaines près du premier confinement. Un média et un laboratoire d'innovation sociale sur la santé mentale, avec un objectif clair : la dédramatiser et la démocratiser.Dans cet épisode, on parle de santé mentale comme d'un continuum, jamais figé, un équilibre précaire fait de ressources et d'obstacles qui ne dépendent pas que de nous. On aborde le principe du rétablissement, les troubles psychiques, le burn-out, l'anxiété, la dépression, le stress post-traumatique, et cette idée qu'on peut aller mieux sans aller bien tout le temps. On déboulonne le "game de la performance", cette injonction au bonheur véhiculée par les réseaux sociaux qui transforme le bien-être en compétition, jusqu'à la diet culture et ses dégâts. Et on dit pourquoi le développement personnel individualiste, celui qui fait tout reposer sur tes seules épaules et culpabilise, nous plante.Christelle raconte aussi son année 2025, vraiment en vrac : Musaé qui rencontre quelques difficultés, l'équipe qu'elle doit laisser partir, le sujet qui devient lourd à porter, et le recul qui permet de relire l'histoire autrement. Le livre de Christelle, Full santé mentale (éditions Viber), et le lien vers Musaé sont dans les notes.Pour retrouver Christelle sur Instagram : @muaeEt son livre : Full santé mentale, aux éditions Vuibert !

Il existe une fatigue invisible que le sommeil ne suffit pas à guérir. C'est celle où le corps continue de fonctionner, d'assumer et de cocher toutes les cases, mais où l'étincelle intérieure s'est éteinte. De l'extérieur, tout semble sous contrôle ; à l'intérieur, tout est lourd. Ce n'est pas forcément un burn-out, mais un signal subtil : vous faites ce qu'il faut, mais plus ce qui vous nourrit.Cette fatigue-là ne réclame pas seulement du repos, elle réclame du sens. Inspirée par la philosophie Ikigai, elle nous rappelle que l'énergie ne vient pas des vacances, mais de l'alignement entre nos actions et notre identité. Quand ce lien se distend, on devient efficace mais vide. Ce n'est pas une faiblesse, c'est un indicateur précieux qui vous invite à réévaluer vos priorités.Pour retrouver votre souffle, ne cherchez pas à tout changer. Demandez-vous simplement : « Qu'est-ce qui, aujourd'hui, me redonne un peu de vie ? » Un moment de création, une marche en silence ou une conversation authentique… L'élan revient dès que l'on réintroduit un espace qui nous ressemble. Ne vous forcez pas à avancer plus vite, apprenez à avancer plus juste.

How the Beatles' studio tricks end up in a Perth beach shack.Rock didn't die. It just got so splintered, so loved, so adopted that it became like the air we breathe.

What does it really mean to be Growth Ready?In this episode, Steve Mellor sits down with Joe Smarro for a deeply honest conversation about identity, self-awareness, and the cost of living for everyone else. Joe shares why growth starts with curiosity, why so much of our identity is inherited rather than chosen, and why external validation keeps so many high-performers stuck. Together, they explore the tension between the person we present to the world and the person we sit with in private, and how closing that gap can transform the way we lead, live, and grow.About the guest: Joe Smarro is a speaker, trainer, former Marine, and former police officer who now leads SolutionPoint+, where he and his team teach human behavior, de-escalation, wellness, resilience, and emotional intelligence.Key takeaways:What it means to be “Growth Ready”Curiosity, self-awareness, and introspectionIdentity vs. titles and external validationThe “representative self” vs. the private selfWhy high-performers get stuck in fear and safetyThe cost of denying yourselfBoundaries, selfishness, and self-worthTherapy, healing, and emotional intelligenceThe obituary exercise and legacyAligning your life with what matters mostConnect with Joe SmarroSolutionPoint+ websiteJoe Smarro's books on AmazonErnie & Joe: Crisis Cops on HBOInstagramLinkedInFacebookSend us Fan MailSupport the showConnect with Steve MellorStay connected and keep growing with Steve:LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/steve-mellor-cc/Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/coachstevemellorBook Steve to speak at your next event → www.stevemellorspeaks.comSupport the GrowthReady Podcast by leaving a 5-star rating → Apple Podcasts - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/growthready-podcast/id1406082163Connect with GrowthReadyJoin the community and keep your growth journey going:LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/wearegrowthready/Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/growthreadypodcast/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/growthreadywithcoachstevemellorOfficial Website - https://growthready.com/----This podcast was produced on Riverside and released via ...

Find the room that changes everything. Subscribe to our Newsletter:https://theultimatepartner.com/ebook-subscribe/Check Out UPX:https://theultimatepartner.com/experience/ I’ve been thinking about purpose a lot lately. Not your job title. Not your company’s mission statement. Not your OKRs. Your reason for being. In this solo episode, I challenge the traditional concept of Ikigai — the Japanese framework for finding meaning — and reveal the critical piece that’s been missing from the standard four-circle model all along. I draw from 40 years in this industry, from carrying a bag in the field to leading a $4.6 billion partner business at Microsoft, to a serious accident that stopped me cold and forced me to ask the hardest questions of my life. What came out of that experience changed how I see purpose entirely. My conclusion: purpose is not a solo exercise. You don’t find it in a diagram. You find it in the room — the right room, with the right people, at the right moment. In this episode, I introduce the Fifth Circle — the question every partner leader and ecosystem builder needs to add to their Ikigai: Who am I finding it with? https://youtu.be/_z_QRObCXSc Key Takeaways Ikigai represents your “reason for being” across four circles: what you love, what you’re good at, what the world needs, and what you can be paid for — but that’s not the whole picture. The traditional model is almost always framed as a solo exercise. For those of us building partnerships for a living, that framing is incomplete. Proximity is a strategic asset — especially now, in the Decade of the Ecosystem. My accident was the catalyst that clarified everything: my purpose wasn’t in the content I created. It was in the community I served. The best partner leaders don’t treat hyperscalers as vendors or partners as channels — they treat them as co-creators and extensions of their own mission. Nobody does the extraordinary alone. The Fifth Circle asks: Who are you finding it with? If you're ready to lead through change, elevate your business, and achieve extraordinary outcomes through the power of partnership—this is your community.

Transcript: UP Solocast March 27 [00:00:00] Vince Menzione: Welcome to the Ultimate Partner Podcast. I’m Vince Manzione, your host, and today we have a special treat. I’m going to spend some time with you just one-on-one having a conversation that really I’ve been thinking about quite a bit lately. What is your reason for being not your job title, not your company’s mission statement, not your OKRs? [00:00:30] Vince Menzione: Your reason for being, you see, there’s a Japanese concept that many of us follow or talk about. In fact, I have posted about this before. Ikigai. It means roughly reason for being or reason to wake up in the morning, and it’s represented over four overlapping circles. And I’ve talked about my icky guy extensively because I feel like I just found it over the last few years. [00:00:56] Vince Menzione: An Iki guy is what you love, what you’re good at, what the world needs, and what you can be paid for. We’re all four of these. Me? That’s your purpose. That’s your icky guy. So I first encountered this years ago. In fact, I was in search for my mission for so long. I spent time with Dr. Michael Vet. In the room trying to understand like where I took my career, where I took all the things that I was good at doing, leading partnerships and the things that I enjoyed doing and all the things that I could help the world doing. [00:01:33] Vince Menzione: But something always felt incomplete about that. In all those conversations and building out my mission statement and my vision statement and some, some other capacities, and it took me, you know, 40 years in this industry, 290 podcast conversations. Dozens of events that I’ve either been on stage or the 10 and 11 that we’ve hosted ourselves and a career that took me from selling in the field, carrying a bag to leading a $4.6 billion partner business at Microsoft. [00:02:06] Vince Menzione: It took me all of that to understand what was missing, and that’s what today’s episode is all about. Let me give you the full, icky guy picture before I tell you what I think is missing. The concept comes from the Okinawa Japan region. Famous for having one of the highest concentrations of centenarians in the world. [00:02:26] Vince Menzione: Researchers have studied these people for a long time to understand why they’ve lived so long, and it comes down to purpose. What was their icky guy? The framework became popular in the west, largely because it gave people a practical tool. Four questions, four circles. Find the overlap. And it works as far as it goes, but I’ve seen executives use it in offsites. [00:02:51] Vince Menzione: Coaches use it for clients. Leaders use it to navigate career transitions, and people talk about it on LinkedIn and on social all the time. The challenge is how it’s framed. It’s almost always framed in a solo exercise. You alone answering these four questions isolated from the people around you, you alone finding that intersection. [00:03:14] Vince Menzione: You alone discovering your purpose. And for many things in life, that’s the right frame. Introspection matters. Self-knowledge matters. But for those of us who are building partnerships for a living, for partner leaders, ecosystem builders, hyperscaler, executives, ISV, founders, MSP operators, and people that build communities like Ultimate Partner, I wanna offer you a different frame. [00:03:41] Vince Menzione: Here’s what I’ve learned, and I don’t say this lightly because it took a long time to articulate it clearly to me, and maybe it was my accident that made this really resonate. You don’t find your purpose alone. You find it in the room, the right room with the right people at the right moment. I can trace almost every significant turn in my career, every breakthrough, every reinvention. [00:04:10] Vince Menzione: Every moment of clarity back to a room, a conversation at a partner conference, a dinner where someone said something that shifted my perspective, a coach that led me to the right conclusions. An event where I met someone who saw what I was building before I fully saw it myself. This isn’t luck, this is proximity. [00:04:35] Vince Menzione: And in the decade of the ecosystem. And during these times of tectonic shifts, which is what I believe we’re living through right now, proximity is a strategic asset. Think about the best results you’ve driven in partnerships. Were they the result of a product strategy as a solo strategy exercise, or were they the product of being in the right relationship at the right time with the right, trusted? [00:05:02] Vince Menzione: I know what your answer is because I’ve heard it 290 plus times. The guests on this podcast, the Tony Voyance, the Greg Serafin, the Jay McBain, the Dr. Michael DVAs, the Nina Hardings in the room, every one of them, when I ask about their greatest moments, they talk about people, they talk about the team, the partnership, the relationships that made it possible. [00:05:28] Vince Menzione: That is the fifth circle, not just what you love. What you’re good at, what the world needs, and what you can be paid for, but who you find it with. I wanna get personal for a second. Just over a year ago, on March 31st of last year, as you all know, I was in a very serious accident. I won’t go into great details about this, but it was the kind of moment that stopped me. [00:05:55] Vince Menzione: It forced me to look up from the world and ask the hard questions. What am I doing? Why does this matter? Who am I doing it for? I spent a month basically in bed trying to work through getting ready for our event that year in Redmond. And during that time, I had nothing to do but think. And what I kept coming back to again and again, wasn’t the content I’ve created on the podcast. [00:06:24] Vince Menzione: It wasn’t the leaders coming on stage. Oh, of course those were important components of it. It was the people, the community in the room, and when I had to get up on stage again, when I needed to go out to Redmond, it was those people that were calling me back. The leaders I’d sat across from for these five plus years. [00:06:45] Vince Menzione: The conversations that have changed my thinking, the relationships that have made ultimate partners, something real, that was my icky guy. And I hadn’t built it alone. I had built it in the room with the most remarkable collection of partner leaders I could ever imagined when I came back, blue Cast and all, I knew more clearly than ever why I do this, and the answer wasn’t in a four circle diagram. [00:07:14] Vince Menzione: It was in the face of the people that showed up in that room, and I could see them now in front of me to this day. So what does this mean for you as a partner leader, as an ecosystem builder? Someone navigating the tectonic shifts of AI marketplace co-sell and more. It means your Ikigai exercise needs a fifth question, not just what do I love? [00:07:39] Vince Menzione: What am I good at? What does the world need? What can I be paid for, but also who am I finding it with? Let me make this concrete. The best partner leaders I know don’t just have strong strategies. They have strong ecosystems of people, mentors, collaborators, cos sellers, hyperscalers champions, and community members who amplify what they’re building. [00:08:09] Vince Menzione: I see it in my friends that are building their communities like Christine Bonard at the Witt Network. I see it in those rooms. It’s not transactional. They’re relational. They don’t treat the hyperscaler as a vendor. They treat them as a co-creator. They don’t treat their partners as a channel. They treat them as an extension of their own mission. [00:08:32] Vince Menzione: They don’t show up at events to collect business cards. They show up to find their people. That last one. Finding your people is where Ikigai gets activated in the ecosystem world. Proximity to the right people, ideas, opportunities, changes, everything. That’s not a tagline. That’s the operating principle behind everything. [00:08:57] Vince Menzione: Ultimate Partner has built the podcast, the events up live in Bellevue, this May and our community. All of it is about creating the room. Because when you find the right room, when you’re in it, contributing to it, building in it, your purpose doesn’t stay abstract, it becomes real. It becomes results. It becomes the extraordinary. [00:09:28] Vince Menzione: I wanna leave you with this somewhere in your career, maybe it’s already happened, maybe it’s ahead of you. There will be a room where something shifts, a conversation that reframes how you see your work, a relationship that accelerates everything. A community that makes you more than you would’ve been without it. [00:09:51] Vince Menzione: That room doesn’t happen by accident. You have to pursue it. You have to invest in it. You have to show up even when it’s hard, even when you’re wearing a boot cast. Even when the timing isn’t perfect because nobody does the extraordinary alone, that’s what the Ultimate Partner framework is built on. [00:10:15] Vince Menzione: That’s what the book that I’m writing is built on, and that’s what I believe with every conversation I’ve been privileged to have on this podcast and in the rooms at Ultimate Partner events. Find your room, build on it. And be the kind of partner, someone else’s breakthrough. Depends on. Thanks for being here. [00:10:39] Vince Menzione: Thanks for being part of the Ultimate Partner podcast about being part of our mission, being part of our community, showing up in our room. Until next time, we’ll see you in person, hopefully at our next event. Ultimate Partner Live is coming soon, May 11th through the 13th in beautiful Bellevue, Washington. [00:11:02] Vince Menzione: I hope to see you there. [

Our teacher today is Brent Beshore, founder and CEO of Permanent Equity, a firm that backs family-owned businesses across North America with no intention of ever selling. As we explore what it means to build enduring companies and live a meaningful life, we turn to Brent's unconventional path – one that challenges the core assumptions of modern private equity and the incentives that shape it. Brent shares how his background in liberal arts and early experiences with success led him to question the traditional models of achievement, wealth, and performance. He describes why he rejected the “buy, lever, and flip” playbook in favor of permanent ownership, and how designing the right incentives can protect against short-term thinking and misaligned behavior. This special session explores Brent's journey from studying poverty and politics to building a different kind of investment firm, alongside deeper reflections on faith, introspection, relationships, and the pursuit of the good life.

This podcast is a deep dive into the tension between active progress and psychological introspection, sparked by tech mogul Marc Andreessen's viral dismissal of self-reflection. The conversation explores whether our modern obsession with "feelings" is actually a roadblock to the very well-being we seek. The Core Tension: Building vs. Navel-Gazing - Progress as the Ultimate Healer: The speakers argue that "progress solves all problems" and that mental health is often an output of achievement rather than an input you can manufacture through therapy alone. - The Problem of Abundance: In survival mode, humans don't have time for introspection; the "crisis of well-being" may be a byproduct of an abundant society that has too much time to over-examine itself. - The "Adlerian" View: Referencing Alfred Adler, the discussion suggests that much of what we call introspection is actually a sophisticated form of avoidance used to justify neurotic behavior rather than changing it. Key Perspectives - Motivation: It is a result of winning or making progress, not something you sit around waiting to feel before you start. - Failure: Success is defined as moving from failure to failure without losing enthusiasm; introspection after failure can lead to "stasis". - Meta-cognition: The participants distinguish between "navel-gazing" (bad) and being aware of one's thoughts to improve future performance (good). - Resilience: Hard times create strong people through action and "getting on with it," whereas excessive reflection can lead to fragility. The Outcome: The speakers don't entirely write off self-reflection, but they insist it must be in service of progress. As they put it, "Stasis is death; progress is life," and any introspection that doesn't lead to a better version of yourself or a better outcome is essentially a waste of time.Would you like me to expand on the "Adlerian demolition" concept mentioned in the talk or perhaps summarize the specific points made about how school results affect well-being?

Chaplain, coach, and author Dean Abbott joins me for a thought-provoking conversation about the difference between healthy introspection and unhealthy rumination. Dean challenges a popular argument that therapy simply encourages people to think about themselves too much, making the case instead that people don't ruminate for fun — they ruminate because they're in pain and searching for something they've lost.Together we explore what makes self-examination productive versus destructive, and Dean introduces a framework rooted in the Christian tradition that contrasts nihilistic rumination — where a person endlessly rehearses their pain with no resolution — with a more structured self-examination oriented toward growth, virtue, and wisdom. I get personal and share my own recent struggles with loneliness and the tension between being a generous host and not getting that energy back when I need it most. Dean walks me through what healthy self-examination would look like in that situation, pointing to the importance of recognizing our legitimate needs and having the courage and honesty to express them.We also dive into the lost concept of human formation, the role of moral education in therapy, why thousands of years of wisdom literature shouldn't be abandoned in the counseling room, and the difference between development and formation. This is a rich, honest, and deeply human conversation.Dean Abbott is a coach, chaplain and author living in the Midwest. He loves animals, music and baseball. His can be found at www.deanabbott.com.

Real ethics is not a dogmatic system of principles, parameters, or prerogatives that one must strictly follow to achieve enlightenment. They instead constitute psychological ways of being that permeate our mind stream, atmosphere, relationships, and communities. By modifying our conditioned states of mind and curtailing states that produce suffering, we in turn ennoble ourselves and the people we interact with. However, such steps require diligent work in the techniques of mindfulness, self-observation, and self-remembering. See how through an exploration of ethics in the three levels of religion; energy as applied to attention and karma; comprehension in meditation as opposed to repression or justification; voluntary mental discipline vs. imposed systems of constraint; the tools and methods of self-reflection and understanding; methods of analyzing the mind; the nature of good and evil; and much more.

Staying spiritually alert matters more than ever in a world where temptation rarely looks dangerous at first glance. This Crosswalk Devotional, Keeping Your Mind on Guard by Aaron D’Anthony Brown, centers on 1 Peter 5:8 and offers a sobering reminder that spiritual battles are often subtle, internal, and persistent. Scripture calls believers to stay clear-minded and watchful because the enemy works quietly, appealing to our weaknesses rather than announcing his presence. Highlights The Bible emphasizes spiritual alertness over fear-based imagery Sin often entices quietly, masking long-term consequences Staying in God’s Word sharpens discernment and clarity Community helps redirect us when we drift off course Healthy relationships influence spiritual resilience Mindfulness and self-examination reveal hidden struggles God’s grace meets us when we turn back in awareness and humility Do you want to listen ad-free?

Your adversary the devil is prowling around like a roaring lion, looking for anyone he can devour.” (1 Peter 5:8, CSB) People often imagine the Devil as a goat-like beast that strikes fear into the hearts of men. However, such renditions of Satan are the result of human creativity, how we think of him. On the contrary, Scripture doesn’t actually give us any physical description. We only know certain characteristics, such as his evil nature, pride, and deceitfulness. If Satan looked anything like how he is often depicted in popular literature and movies, wouldn’t people run in the opposite direction? Christian or not, that’s just plain scary. Yet, I think we can agree that the Devil is active in our world today. Very active. That means if he is to be successful, he has to be subtle. Such is the nature of sin. Sin is enticing because the consequences don’t speak as loudly as the supposed benefits. Thus, the Devil lures us in, and we fall for the trap. Now, perhaps we blame him for things that we ourselves commit willingly, due to our own flawed nature. However, I don’t think the Devil is off somewhere chilling and relaxing. He’s acting against us as we ourselves do the same. Therefore, as Christians, we need to remember an important lesson as we go about our lives - keeping our minds on guard. Whether we’re in a good season of life or a difficult one, there’s always the potential of being pulled away from God. We don’t always recognize the sin in our lives, but it’s there. So, how exactly do we guard our minds against the wiles of the Devil and the tempting nature of sin? Intersecting Faith & Life: Here are a few steps you can take today to guard against the sin that creeps so easily into our lives. Be in the Word. Someone recently told me that he’s confident in his prayers because he always gets what he prays for. What I also know is this man is not reading the Bible at all. As a result, he’s left with who he imagines God to be instead of who God is. That could be true of any of us who call ourselves Christians, but don’t follow God’s tenets. How can we know what He expects of us if we don’t know Him? Moreover, how can we know how to stand against sin if we don’t first turn to God? Yes, we can learn from the people around us, but they are sinners just like us. Their knowledge and wisdom are finite. Not God’s. And we know what is holy not because of them, but because He is holy. Be in community. There’s much to gain when we keep good company. Fellow believers have the ability to help us get back on track when we veer off course. They remind us of our worth to God and how to walk in wisdom. However, they can’t offer any of these gains if we don’t keep them around. That’s why the Bible encourages us to be mindful of who we keep around us. Everyone in our lives, especially those we engage with regularly, influences us. Let’s make sure they are influencing us for good, and that we, in turn, are doing the same. The better our company, the less we will fall into sin. Be mindful. Introspection is an underrated and underutilized practice. To identify sin, we must first recognize it. However, so many of us are constantly on the go, and we don’t take time to figure out how to improve ourselves. We don’t know when to rest, or when to invest more into a relationship, or when we have developed a bad habit. We can see it in others, but not ourselves. All because we’re not taking the time to think. Consider journaling, sitting in silence without distractions, and even praying that God will help you become more mindful. As mentioned in the introduction, we don’t always recognize the sin in our lives, but it’s there. And when we find it, we should respond accordingly by turning to God and His saving grace.

So many of us have tried to white-knuckle our way through one food plan after another. But what if health isn't about eating perfectly—but rather about building habits that actually bear good fruit in our lives? In this episode, guest co-host Brandice Lardner and I unpack why “perfect eating plans” so often fail, especially for Highly Sensitive Christian women. Brandice introduces the idea of fruitful habits: flexible, grace-filled practices you can evaluate by their outcomes, not whether you followed every rigid rule. We explore how reflection (not rumination) helps you learn from your choices why giving yourself permission actually reduces food obsessions what it looks like to “marry wants with wisdom” without shame or fear If you're longing for a calmer, more sustainable approach to food—one rooted in grace, discernment, and real-life rhythms—this conversation offers a hopeful way forward.Links mentioned: Episode #303: "Why It's Hard to Trust Your Body — Especially Around Food" https://cherigregory.com/episode303/ Order Brandice's new book Fully Nourished: A Grace-Filled Approach to Ditch Diets and Find Peace with Food and Your Body https://amzn.to/3Z3q5SL You can get her free 7-lesson "Faith > Food" email course right here https://gracefilledplate.com/faith-food-email-course/ Check out Brandice's Website: Grace Filled Plate https://GraceFilledPlate.com Take the “Am I a Highly Sensitive Person?” Self-Quiz https://CheriGregory.com/hspquiz/ Learn about the "Write Beside You" Unlimited Coaching Program and the "Clarity in Your Calling" Mastermind https://sensitiveandstrongbook.com/wby-unlimited-coaching-program/ https://sensitiveandstrongbook.com/clarity-in-your-calling-mastermind Chapters (00:00:00) - Grit and Grace: When Perfect Eating Plans Fail(00:01:19) - How to Trust Your Own Body(00:04:10) - Virtuous HABITS(00:09:02) - Introspection and Self-Compassion(00:15:33) - Why Is It So Hard to Overcome a Sugar Cravings?(00:22:18) - Living on a Diet with the Spirit(00:25:01) - Highly Sensitive Christian Women(00:27:38) - Marathon Author: The MDP Team
