Podcasts about invitations

Over the past year, I noticed something shift. Friends I once counted on stopped showing up. Invitations went unanswered, and I found myself diving alone more often than not. At first, it stung—realizing that connections I thought were solid had faded. But in that silence, I discovered something powerful: quiet confidence. It wasn't about proving anything to anyone else. It was about standing firm in who I am, even when the crowd got smaller.That discovery made me realize just how critical quiet confidence is for veterans.Why Quiet Confidence Matters for VeteransDepression and Self-Worth: When you leave the service, the structure, validation, and sense of mission disappear almost overnight. Depression feeds on that emptiness. Quiet confidence pushes back by reminding you that your value doesn't end with your uniform.Isolation vs. Connection: Many veterans feel their social circles shrink, and loneliness creeps in. Building confidence allows you to accept that loss without being defined by it—and opens the door to more authentic, reciprocal relationships.Resilience: Quiet confidence equips you to face hard days with inner strength. It's a tool that grounds you and keeps you moving forward, no matter what's happening around you.Three Hacks for Building Quiet ConfidenceStart Small – Embrace little acts of individuality: say what you really think, wear what feels like you. These small moves grow into a strong foundation.Choose Your Circle Wisely – Surround yourself with people who celebrate your authenticity and give back as much as they take.Work With a Coach – Coaching provides a safe space to identify your strengths and build a confidence that directly combats the effects of depression.Takeaway Quiet confidence doesn't shout. It whispers strength. For veterans struggling with depression, it's a lifeline—a way to rebuild trust in yourself, reclaim purpose, and walk forward with resilience. Hosted on Acast.

What does it mean to be pragmatic about AI adoption, while staying true to the values and mission driving people and organizations? When Elisa Lindinger decided to talk about AI, her intention was to say what she had to say once, and then move on with her life without having anyone ask about AI ever again. The plan backfired heavily, but somehow, that turned into a good thing. Lindinger is the Co-founder of SUPERRR, an independent non-profit organization. SUPERRR was created to serve the thesis is that digital policy is social policy, and it needs bold visions and feminist values. Like most other individuals and organizations today, Lindinger's inbox has been flooded with new invitations every day. Invitations to discuss AI, to facilitate workshops on feminist AI, or the inevitable coaching offer to finally learn how to prompt properly. This made Lindinger feel that other topics that are just as crucial are disappearing from the conversation. "AI and Unlikelihood" was an attempt to situate how the people at SUPERRR view the phenomenon of AI, and why they believe it's essential to return our attention to other topics as well. What happened instead was that SUPERRR's post got viral on LinkedIn, reigniting the topic of AI and stealing the limelight. An algorithmic glitch? Perhaps. But SUPERRR's stance of rejecting the narrative of blind adoption of generative AI resonated with many people. We met with Lindinger to explore the nuance behind what some might superficially call a Luddite approach, and to talk about setting priorities right, imagining futures people want to live in, and how to go From AI literacy to futures literacy. With cracks in the AI narrative beginning to show, the backdrop could not be more timely.

What if the secret to healing isn't doing more—but doing less? In this episode, we explore the 7 Invitations of Organic Intelligence, a revolutionary somatic framework that helps you unlock your body's natural ability to heal, adapt, and thrive. These invitations aren't about fixing yourself—they're about creating the conditions for healing to unfold effortlessly. You'll learn:

Send us a textThe human soul yearns for serenity in a world marked by division, violence, and turmoil. But where do we find such peace? Drawing from ancient wisdom and personal experience spanning over 40 years of spiritual practice, this episode explores the profound truth that "returning to the source is serenity."Beyond denominational boundaries and religious dogma lies a simple yet transformative reality – our connection to our Creator provides the grounding we desperately need. Like birds instinctively returning to their nest, we find our true home when we reconnect with the divine source that formed us. This relationship doesn't diminish our individuality but rather makes us "more fully ourselves" by aligning us with our authentic design.Recent tragic events have shaken our collective consciousness, revealing both our capacity for hatred and our hunger for unity. These painful moments offer unique opportunities to examine our reactions, identify what Holly Kenley calls "internal invaders," and choose a different path forward. When we witness violence and division, we're called not just to condemn external darkness but to recognize and transform the shadows within ourselves.Perhaps most heartbreaking are the divisions within our own families – rifts that mirror the larger fractures in our society. By returning to our spiritual center, we gain the perspective and strength to become "chain breakers," interrupting patterns of blame and rejection that have persisted for generations. True transformation begins when we stop pointing fingers and honestly assess our own contributions to disharmony.Ready to experience the serenity that comes from spiritual reconnection? This journey of awakening isn't always comfortable, but it leads to authentic freedom and the ability to create "bouquets of love and light" that can truly transform our troubled world. Join me in this courageous exploration of what it means to be fully present, spiritually connected, and radiantly alive.Support the show

Welcome to week 5 in our series titled, “The Journey Deeper”, where we are exploring how the regular, rhythmic practices of a Jesus follower become the trellis on which their life in Christ grows. This week is all about Community. We take a look at the early Church formation as well as the creation of humanity at the very beginning to hopefully shape how we view - what we believe - of Community. Join us as we seek God's direction for our community-driven, spiritual lives together.Things to consider as you listen:As image bearers of the Triune God, we were created for community.We've been intentionally designed to need one another.1 in 5 U.S. adults experience feelings of loneliness on a daily basis.Fictive kinship group = people who are not related by blood or marriage but form strong bonds and act as family members, providing emotional support, stability, and practical care.The local church is built on relationships that become “kin” - where encouragement, support, and accountability is foundational. Community Groups - a chosen family built upon shared life and commitment to Journey Deeper together through fellowship, study of God's Word, and prayer.ACTS 2:42-474 Invitations for Community:Be family around a table.Share your joys and sorrows.Advocate for growth.Stay.

Host: Steve Machia, Guest: Dave Ripper “In essence, the number one question we ought to be asking ourselves is 'How can I help you draw closer to God?'" - Steve Macchia  In Episode 02 of Season 36, Steve Macchia hosts Dave Ripper, author of ‘Experiencing Scripture as a Disciple of Jesus.' In this conversation, Steve and Dave discuss Dallas Willard's approach to reading the Bible and how we can move toward an experiential knowledge of God in our lives. Don't miss this conversation as Dave shares personal stories about his relationship with the Willards, his heart behind his new book, and how we can encounter God in transforming ways through the Scriptures.   Join the conversation about spiritual discernment as a way of life at www.LeadershipTransformations.org and consider participation in our online and in-person program offerings.

Matthew 13:44-46

Old photos often remind us not just of where we've been, but of how much we've changed. While it's easy to see the external shifts, it's much harder to make sense of our internal journey, especially when we feel defined by our stumbles. This message explores how our moments of greatest failure can become the surprising location of our deepest healing.

Matthew 6:19-24

Chad and Alex are back behind the mics, and it's the usual hilarious chaos. They tear into rap artists, lyrics, and what really holds up, before drifting into whiskey, exotic food, and backstage stories with Cody Cannon of Whiskey Myers. Hunting dinners, missing life's big moments, and what it takes to balance the grind with everything else all make their way into the mix. And then there's the car show. Alex thinks it's awesome, Chad thinks it's lame. But the funniest part is when Chad calls Alex out for never inviting him anywhere, while Chad invites Alex to everything. It's another raw, hilarious, and unfiltered episode that makes Breakin' It Down what it is. This episode is brought to you by Jack Daniel's Tennessee Whiskey, Leer toppers, Oakley Sunglasses, and Pecos Outdoor! Enjoy!

I've decided to move the podcast to video format on YouTube. I'll be keeping it as audio only on other streaming platforms for now. The purpose of this episode is to invite people onto the podcast. I want to make this more of a "community" type thing rather than just me talking about stuff. I encourage anyone to please contact me if you're interested. I have raging imposter syndrome, which is normal, so just fight that off. The topics can really be anything of relevance, but I want these episodes to be either informative, inspiring, or humorous. Whether you have a business, a charity you work with, a life experience, or a topic you've just wanted to chat about, I'm ready for it!Thanks to those who listen! Contact Mike:Mike Sinopoli - NASM Certified Nutrition CoachInstagram, Facebook, X, LinkedIn: @mfswellnessemail: mike@mfswellness.comphone: 630-361-4907www.mfswellness.com

I'll give you powerful tools you can start using today to interrupt the cycle, reclaim your power, and begin shifting your energy from the inside out.You'll learn how to pause the pattern, spot the familiar feeling, and ask the questions that changes everything: What patterns are playing out in your relationships right now?Is there a recurring theme in how people treat you… or how you respond?What would shift if you started viewing this not as punishment, but as guidance?Because our relationships aren't punishments. They're invitations.Invitations to see ourselves more clearly, heal the parts we've abandoned, and finally step into love that feels safe, soulful, and aligned.If you're ready to see your relationships not as setbacks but as mirrors guiding, you back to yourself, this episode is for you.If this conversation resonated, share it with a friend who needs to hear it.

Luke 9:57-62

In Matthew 4:19, Jesus gives one of the most life-changing invitations in history: “Come, follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.” With just a few words, He invited ordinary fishermen into an extraordinary calling—and their “yes” changed the world.This reminds us that invitations carry power. One invitation can open the door to hope, faith, and transformation. When we invite someone into our lives, to church, or to follow Jesus, we're creating space for God to work.The truth is, people are longing for connection. They're waiting for someone to see them, reach out, and welcome them in. Just like the disciples, many will say “yes” when they're invited.So who in your life needs that simple, powerful invitation this week?

Episode 1776: Steve Pavlina explores how saying “yes” to seemingly impossible invitations can accelerate personal growth by stretching your identity and dissolving self-imposed limits. Rather than waiting until you feel ready, embracing these challenges in their raw form often leads to powerful transformation and new levels of clarity. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://stevepavlina.com/blog/2020/01/impossible-invitations/ Quotes to ponder: "Impossible invitations have a way of surfacing when you're ready to stretch, grow, and redefine yourself." "You don't have to accept every impossible invitation, but at least consider what the invitation is really offering you." "Sometimes we become too reasonable and wait until we're ready, and then the invitation passes us by." Episode references: Nonviolent Communication by Marshall B.

Today's inquiry comes from Kay, who is grappling with anxiety following a series of significant health scares. Through her story, we explore the struggles of chronic stress and the challenge of returning to a state of calm. As we delve into her situation, it becomes clear that understanding and practicing self-compassion is crucial in this journey back to emotional balance.I emphasize the importance of the RAIN technique that Kay mentions, which serves as an effective tool for navigating difficult emotions. I break down the four steps of RAIN: Recognize, Allow, Investigate, and Nurture. This method encourages a mindful approach to one's feelings, transforming reactivity into self-acceptance and compassion. Recognizing emotions, allowing them to exist without judgment, gently investigating their origins, and nurturing oneself through comforting practices can foster a sense of peace during moments of anxiety.Drawing from Kay's experiences, I highlight the necessity of patience as one recovers from a period of high stress. I remind listeners that healing is not linear and that taking small, steady steps can significantly impact their journey. Breathwork, for example, can be a foundational practice. I explain how techniques like belly breathing and conscious exhalation cultivate safety in the nervous system, allowing individuals to break the cycle of tension and anxiety.#AnxietyRelief #ChronicStress #NervousSystemHealing #EmotionalRegulation #RAINTechnique #SelfCompassion #MindfulnessPractice #BodyBasedHealing #MentalWellness #StressReduction #VagusNerve #GroundingTechniques #PresentMoment #SelfCareJourney #InnerPeace #EmotionalWellbeing #AnxietyHelp #CalmYourMind #Breathwork #Visualization #PodcastTips #GinaRyan #AnxietyCoachesPodcast #HealthAnxiety #OvercomingAnxiety #DailyHabits #FeelYourFeet #HummingForCalm #Decompress #HealYourBody #BeKindToYourself #ResilienceBuilding #ACPSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
