You're Not Overworked — You're Doing the Wrong WorkFemale emPOWERED Podcast with Christa GurkaIf you feel exhausted, behind, and busy all day but somehow not moving forward, this episode is for you.In this episode of the Female emPOWERED Podcast, Christa Gurka breaks down the real reason so many boutique fitness, Pilates, and private-pay PT owners feel burned out — and it's not because you're lazy, bad at business, or not working hard enough.You're overworked because you're doing work that no longer belongs to you.This episode is a mindset shift and a practical wake-up call for owner-operators who are stuck in the weeds, micromanaging their teams, avoiding delegation, and confusing “busy” with actual progress.In This Episode, You'll Learn:Why working harder isn't the answer — and why working higher isThe difference between operator work vs. true CEO workHow micromanaging your team is quietly stalling your growthWhy avoiding delegation trains your team not to thinkThe hidden cost of being the bottleneck in your own businessHow “fake CEO work” (busywork) keeps you stuckWhere boutique fitness and PT owners waste the most energyWhy systems, structure, and financial clarity matter more than motivationThe 5 core responsibilities of a CEO in a boutique service businessHow to reclaim 5–10 hours a week without working longer daysThe 5 Core Responsibilities of a True CEO:If you're working outside of these five areas most of the time, that's why you feel busy but not productive:Vision & Direction – Where the business is going and whyFinancial Oversight – Understanding revenue, profit, capacity, and pricingLeadership – Right people, right seats, clear expectationsSystems & Structure – Designing processes (not running them)Strategic Growth Decisions – When to hire, expand, cut, or say noAnswering emails, fixing schedule issues, running the front desk, and rescuing staff are not CEO work.If This Sounds Like You…You're still client-facing more than 50% of the timeYou approve every decisionStaff come to you instead of following systemsYou “just do it yourself because it's faster”You're busy all day but unsure what actually moved the needle…this episode will hit home.Key Takeaway:You don't need another planner, another framework, or more hustle.You need intentional structure, clearer delegation, and the courage to step out of the minutiae and into leadership — on purpose.You don't need to work harder. You need to work higher.

Episode 728 - If you feel stuck, it's not because you lack discipline, clarity, or ambition. It's because you're looping.In this podcast, I break down:What a stress loop actually isThe difference between survival mode and creation modeWhy trying harder reinforces the same resultsHow state shapes identityAnd how to interrupt the cycle at the rootYou don't need more effort. You need a new baseline.When you regulate your state, your identity shifts.When your identity shifts, your results follow. Ready to Get Unstuck?

In this episode of the Mindset and Manifesting Podcast, Lynna K Teer continues the series on States of Consciousness, the true foundation of the Law as taught by Neville Goddard.Many people apply Neville's techniques faithfully. They visualize, affirm, imagine from the end, and yet see little or no change. This episode explains why.Neville never taught techniques as the cause of manifestation. He taught that state precedes experience, and that techniques are only effective when they express an already-shifted identity. When techniques are used to compensate for an unchanged state, effort increases, frustration follows, and the old identity remains intact.In this conversation, Lynna clarifies:Why techniques feel appealing but often fail to produce changeThe difference between imagining an outcome and occupying an identityWhy affirmations create resistance when they contradict the current stateWhy forced emotion and intensity signal misalignmentHow states actually change through natural acceptance rather than effortWhy time is not the issue, but consistency of identification isThe episode concludes with a short Q&A segment, modeled after Neville's lecture style, addressing common questions around technique use, effort, and state stabilization.This episode is for listeners who feel stuck despite “doing the work” and are ready to understand manifestation at the level Neville actually taught it.

What's the difference between a collective timekeeper and a personal astrologer? Why is "being interested in astrology" not the same as being an astrologer? And why does mixing the two create muddy, affirmational bullshit that serves no one?This is the boundary-setting episode. It's short, direct, and unapologetic about what this work is and what it isn't. There are three distinct things happening here: (1) precision intuitive astrology for business owners and entrepreneurs (private, paid, individual charts), (2) collective timekeeping and futurism (public, mundane astrology, the wake-up call), and (3) teaching (universal principles anyone can learn). These are not the same. And placating to the masses with feel-good horoscopes for clicks? Not happening here.If you've ever wondered why some astrology feels like fortune cookies and other astrology feels like soul surgery, this episode explains the difference. Also: Saturn entering Aries on Friday the 13th, why 2/20 is historically significant, and the heretic's role in refusing to compromise integrity for money.This episode covers:The three distinct roles: precision astrologer (private), collective timekeeper (public), teacher (universal)Why mundane astrology and personal astrology are not the same thingBeing interested in astrology vs. being an astrologer (mechanic vs. car enthusiast analogy)Why "affirmational bullshit" is lucrative but not what this isThe heretic's message (5/1 human design)Saturn entering Aries on Friday the 13th (Venus's day)Pluto in the 11th house: transformation of the collectiveMercury Retrograde as teaching vs. personal interpretationWhy refusing the middle ground is an integrity issue, not heroismPerfect for:People tired of Instagram astrology and horoscope fluffBusiness owners who want astrology as strategy, not affirmationAnyone who can tell the difference between teaching and panderingListeners ready for the heretic's message over mass appealThose who understand boundaries are a service, not gatekeepingKeywords: mundane astrology, collective timekeeper, precision intuitive astrology, Saturn in Aries, heretic message, affirmational astrology, astrology teaching, being an astrologer, Pluto in 11th house, Venus day Friday 13th, business astrology, soul path, integrity over money, refusing middle groundMentioned in This Episode:Saturn and Neptune joining at 0 degrees AriesFriday the 13th (Venus's day)2/20 historical significanceMercury Retrograde teaching episode (on the feed)5/1 human design (heretic profile)Pluto in the 11th house (collective transformation)

Okay… let's talk about the moment your standards actually cost you something.Not when they're cute quotes. Not when they live in your journal. But when enforcing them means walking away, disappointing someone, or choosing long-term alignment over short-term comfort.Because let's be honest — your standards aren't too high. You're a high-achieving woman. Excellence is your baseline. That's not the issue.The issue is when kindness lowers the bar. When empathy overrides discernment. When we start valuing potential over patterns.We're breaking down what it really looks like to build self-respect through behavior. I'm sharing a personal story and walking you through how self-trust is built in the exact moments that feel uncomfortable.This is about becoming unavailable for self-abandonment — even when it costs you something.Because standards aren't proven in what you say you want. They're proven in what you enforce.WHAT WE GET INTOWhy high standards are not the problem — but lack of enforcement isThe difference between potential and patterns (and why it matters for emotional maturity)How inconsistency can feel intoxicating — but not alignedFind out what it means to STANDWhy settling for short-term comfort can cost you long-term overflowHow self-respect is built through consistent, aligned decisionsWhat it really looks like to be unavailable for self-abandonmentCHAPTERS00:00 Introduction: The Cost of Standards00:56 Series Overview: Unavailable for Self Abandonment01:49 Understanding Standards and Patterns03:35 The Framework for Enforcing Standards04:55 Personal Story: Walking Away from Potential05:21 Breaking Down the Framework: S.T.A.N.D.08:42 Navigating the Fallout and Deciding in Alignment13:39 The Pattern Audit: A Self-Love Two-Step15:13 Empowerment and Encouragement: Embracing Your Standards18:09 Conclusion: Aligning with Your True Self

Send a textWhat happens when the very tools meant to heal you—breathwork, yoga, mindfulness—become ways to silence your inner wisdom?In this deeply vulnerable conversation, I sit down with Devin Scott, founder of Find Your Meaning, a body-based coach, who shares his recent experience of ignoring his body's signals in a relationship—and what he has learned about "healing" from that experience.We recorded this episode in early December, just days after Devin went through a painful breakup. Instead of presenting a polished, "healed" version of himself, he brought his raw, real experience into our conversation—and what emerged is one of the most honest explorations of body wisdom, emotional intelligence, and the shadow side of "wellness" that I've ever had.This conversation will shift how you think about healing, emotions, and what it means to truly listen to yourself.What You'll Learn in This Episode:Why traditional healing systems often feel hollow—and how they can reinforce perfectionism and conformity instead of true transformationThe difference between resourcing and dissociating—how Devin used "healthy" practices like breathwork and yoga to silence his body's wisdom instead of listening to itWhy emotions aren't problems to solve—they're messages, evolutionary tools, and pathways to deeper wisdomHow body wisdom gets overridden—the cultural scripts that teach us to distrust our intuition and seek external validationThe philosophy of Lila—an ancient Indian concept that reframes life as "cosmic play" rather than a linear path to fix yourselfWhy you don't need to "win" at healing—and how the idea of becoming a "better version of yourself" can be self-punitiveWhen nervous system collapse is necessary—why sometimes you need to stop doing and just be with what isThe gaslighting embedded in systems—from workplaces to therapy, how we're taught that we are the problem, not the systemKey Themes:This episode explores the paradox of using healing modalities to avoid feeling, the courage it takes to trust your body when logic demands otherwise, and the radical idea that suffering might not be something to transcend—but something to experience fully as part of being human.Devin's honesty about his own recent heartbreak—and how he ignored his body's clear signals because he couldn't rationalize them—offers a powerful reminder that even those who teach this work are still learning it. We're all human. We all stumble. And vulnerability isn't weakness—it's where the real wisdom lives.About Devin Scott:Devin Scott is a body-based coach and facilitator who helps people reconnect with their inner wisdom and move through life with greater authenticity.

When you witness suffering at scale, your capacity to care can feel like it's running on empty. In this episode, we're diving into the biological reality of compassion fatigue and the potent "antidote" found in moral elevation. We discuss why "looking for the helpers" isn't just a sweet sentiment—it's a vital nervous system intervention that activates the vagus nerve and restores our ability to hope. This conversation is an invitation to honor your personal capacity, embrace complexity, and find your own sustainable way to show up.In this episode, you'll learn:What compassion fatigue actually isThe "Compassion Budget"The science of Moral Elevation: How witnessing acts of goodness triggers the vagus nerve to slow your heart rate, reduce inflammation, and release oxytocin.Dialectical Thinking: The "both/and" logic that allows you to acknowledge horrifying truths without losing sight of community resilience.Matching Capacity to Advocacy: Why "offering the shovel" is sometimes exactly enough, and how to match your current resources to the causes you care about.3 Takeaways:Compassion fatigue is real—and so is your capacity limit. Not every cause can be your cause. Ask yourself: What do I have to give right now? And where do I want to give it? Be honest about your capacity and kind to yourself about your limitations. Sometimes offering the shovel is enough.Looking for the helpers activates moral elevation—a biological antidote to compassion fatigue. Practice dialectical thinking: both/and, not either/or. Horrifying things are happening AND people are showing up for each other. You can witness harm AND witness helpers. Resources mentioned:Book: Healing Through the Vagus Nerve by Amanda Armstrong—Looking for more personalized support?Book a FREE discovery call for RESTORE, our 1:1 anxiety & depression coaching program (HSA/FSA eligible & includes comprehensive bloodwork)Join me inside Regulated Living, a mental health membership and nervous system healing space (sliding scale pricing available)*Want me to talk about something specific on the podcast?

This might be the most misunderstood concept in the golf swing… and it's costing golfers more than they realize.In this episode of the Athletic Motion Golf Podcast, Mike Granato and Shaun Webb break down one of the most commonly botched elements in the modern golf swing: shaft lean at impact.Golfers everywhere are obsessed with achieving that “tour-level look” — hands forward, clubface compressing the ball — but most are chasing a pose, not a position rooted in proper movement and mechanics. And the results? Inconsistent ball striking, weak compression, and frustration on the course.Mike and Shaun dive into:Why holding lag is ruining your swingThe truth about wrist angles and body positioningHow “posing impact” is hurting your real performanceWhy even elite players misunderstand what shaft lean actually isThe role of swing sequence and movement patterns in achieving natural compressionThis episode is for every player who's chased compression, tried to "hold the angle," or been told their hands need to be way forward at impact.

Luke 9:37–43 (ESV)37 On the next day, when they had come down from the mountain, a great crowd met him.38 And behold, a man from the crowd cried out, “Teacher, I beg you to look at my son, for he is my only child.39 And behold, a spirit seizes him, and he suddenly cries out. It convulses him so that he foams at the mouth, and shatters him, and will hardly leave him.40 And I begged your disciples to cast it out, but they could not.”41 Jesus answered, “O faithless and twisted generation, how long am I to be with you and bear with you? Bring your son here.”42 While he was coming, the demon threw him to the ground and convulsed him. But Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit and healed the boy, and gave him back to his father.43 And all were astonished at the majesty of God.After witnessing Christ's glory on the mountain, Jesus descends into human brokenness. A desperate father brings his demon-possessed son—but the disciples fail where they once succeeded.Jesus' sharp rebuke exposes a deeper issue: lack of faith.This passage teaches us:✔ Spiritual authority requires continual dependence on God✔ Past victories do not guarantee present faithfulness✔ Unbelief weakens spiritual effectiveness✔ Faithlessness reveals a deeper moral problem✔ God's power is never diminished—only our trust isThe disciples were empowered—but their faith had waned.Jesus remains sovereign, restoring the child and revealing the majesty of God.

Have you ever felt a deep, aching longing to go home — even though you're already here?If you identify as a Starseed, Lightworker, Dragon being, or soul with a mission, this episode is for you.In this deeply embodied transmission, I speak to the unspoken grief many awakened souls carry:the feeling of not belonging on Earth, the exhaustion of being human, and the quiet desire to return to another dimension, another lifetime, another place that once felt safe.✨ In this episode, we explore:Why Starseeds feel homesick — and what “home” truly isThe root wound of separation and how it lives in the bodyThe danger of spiritual dissociation & escapismHow trauma distorts the root chakra and sense of safetyWhy grounding isn't just “touching a tree”The shift from spiritual martyr to inner queen / kingWhat it really means to create Heaven on EarthHow to come home through your body, heart, and presenceThis episode is an invitation to stop trying to escape Earth —and instead anchor your soul fully into your human vessel, reclaim your dignity, and remember why you came.You are not here to suffer for the world.You are here to steward it.You are here to belong.If this resonates, you are part of the soul family.

Well Sh*t. It really is that simple - Episode 187 - "How conflict avoidance often causes more conflict" is now LIVE!Full Show notes: https://bit.ly/WellShitEpisodeGuideWhen we avoid conflict we are actually avoiding communication and resolution which is ironically what is needed to avoid further conflict.

Let's talk about Christmas. Not just the cozy traditions or the sparkling lights, but the actual story of what happened in Bethlehem over 2,000 years ago.This week on the podcast, I had the absolute honor of sitting down with Lee Strobel and together we explore the deeper truths of the nativity story, why the details matter, and how we can share that with our kids in a way that builds their faith.Here are a few highlights from our conversation:Why understanding the virgin birth is crucial to understanding who Jesus really isThe difference between the cultural version of Christmas and what Scripture actually saysHow to talk to kids about the parts of the story that might confuse them (like the wise men and the timeline!)And yes, we even touch on Santa and how to navigate that as Christian parentsLee Strobel is a former legal editor for the Chicago Tribune and a New York Times bestselling author of more than forty books, including The Case for Christ and The Case for Faith. After investigating the claims of Christianity as an atheist, he became a follower of Jesus and now speaks and writes to help others explore faith with confidence. His newest book, The Case for Christmas, explores the historical and biblical evidence behind the nativity story.Whether you've heard the Christmas story a hundred times or are learning it with your kids for the first time, this conversation will give you a fresh perspective and a renewed sense of awe.(00:00) From Atheism to Faith: Lee Strobel's Journey(03:00) The Cultural Significance of Christmas(05:47) Revisiting the Nativity Story: Myths vs. Reality(09:04) Understanding the Virgin Birth(12:12) The Role of the Magi in the Christmas Story(14:56) The Importance of Context in Biblical Narratives(18:05) The Legacy of Saint Nicholas and Santa Claus(20:47) Celebrating Christmas with Children(24:01) The True Meaning of ChristmasConnect with LeeLeeStrobel.comLee Strobel X Case For Christmas Resources MentionedLee's booksCase For Christmas Christian Parenting resourcesThe Christian Parenting Podcast: Faith, apologetics, and the supernatural with Lee StrobelSupport Christian ParentingPrefer video?

In this episode, I sit down with drummer Jordan Perlson for a deep dive into collaboration, sound, and how we listen to music in 2025. I've admired Jordan's playing for a long time, especially with Becca Stevens, and it was a joy to finally talk with him about his journey and how he thinks about music.We start with how he first connected with Becca Stevens and her band in New York, and what it means to show up as a collaborator while still protecting your own musical “mission statement.” Jordan talks about the tension between being a supportive hired gun and staying true to his instincts – and how, as he gets older, it's harder to ignore that inner compass.Jordan shares some of the drummers who have shaped his ears over the years, from John Bonham and Will Calhoun to Bill Stewart and Jay Bellerose – and why the “magic” of certain players only grows with time. We get into Bellerose's multi-percussionist approach to the drum set, compensating for supposed “weaknesses,” and how those limitations can actually lead to a more unique sound.From there, we talk about Jordan's move from New York to Nashville in 2016:  what he was (and wasn't) seeing in 10-year-old versions of himself on the New York scene, and why he decided to build a life in a place where quality of life and long-term sustainability felt more achievable. I loved hearing how his “wide net” hustle in New York evolved into a more focused, intentional approach in Nashville, where his priority list was: Jeff Coffin, Victor Krauss, Adrian Belew – and then figuring out how to be musically meaningful to them.Jordan also shares beautiful stories from touring with Adrian Belew, including Adrian's fearlessness as a guitarist, singer, and composer, and what it's like to sit inside that kind of energy every night.We spend a good chunk of time talking about how we listen to music now versus how we listened when we grew up. Jordan reflects on the difference between buying a record or cassette for one song and then slowly falling in love with the deep cuts, versus today's playlist culture, where it's easy to skip anything that doesn't hit instantly. We compare notes on hearing albums at 14 versus revisiting them in our late 40s, and how our relationship with certain songs completely changes over time.Later in the episode, we get into:Growing up outside Philadelphia, going to Berklee, and why classical percussion never really clicked for Jordan, beyond a love of snare drum and books like Portraits in RhythmHis experience teaching – from a stint at MTSU to working with already-professional drummers looking to refine specific skills – and why an intermittent, online-friendly lesson model actually fits his students best.His work with Guthrie Trapp's trio (and their weekly gig at the Underdog in Nashville), the expanded Guitar Party project with Guthrie, Tom Bukovac, Jed Hughes, Tim Marks, and Jimmy WallaceThe trio with Jeff Coffin and Victor Krauss, their first record together, and the almost-finished follow-up featuring guests like Mike Stern, Jerry Douglas, Béla Fleck, and Sam BushPlaying on Jessica Simpson's recent JD McPherson-produced projects and how surprising (in the best way) that music isThe realities of remote recording from his home studio: the freedom, the creativity, the weird waiting-game around revisions, and why some magic can only happen when a band is in the room togetherJordan is thoughtful, honest, and funny, and this conversation felt like hanging out with a friend who happens to be one of the most musical drummers on the planet. I had a great time talking with him, and I think you'll really enjoy hearing how he sees the instrument, the industry, and the future of making records.To learn more about Jordan, please visit his website.Music from the Episode:e (The Adrian Belew Power Trio)Thank you for listening.

What if the reason you can't speak your truth isn't suppression at all—but complete disconnection from what your truth even is?In this intimate conversation, Raj sits down with Natalie Adele to explore why so many of us (especially women) have lost access to our authentic voice. It's not that we're choosing to stay silent. It's that we've been severed from the body, the heart, and the stillness where truth actually lives.In this episode, you'll discover:Why suppression isn't the real problem—and what isThe surprising place where feminine truth actually lives (hint: it's not your mind)What we're really afraid of when we fear being seenHow childhood micro-moments slowly dial down our life forceThe difference between being seen and being truly knownWhy "sorry" and "sorrow" share the same root—and what that means for your energyThe practice of "dropping anchor" that rebuilds trust with yourselfHow your relationship with yourself directly impacts how men respond to youYour voice was never lost. It's waiting to be reclaimed.The truth you've been afraid to speak, the emotions you've been afraid to feel, the version of yourself you've been afraid to reveal—they're all still there. Underneath the noise. Underneath the conditioning. Underneath every moment you made yourself smaller to feel safe.This episode is your invitation to come home to yourself.

Ever wonder what happens when the next generation wakes up before we do? At Spirit Fest USA, we sat down with Kris Owsley, founder of Lightworkers United Training Academy, to talk about how she's helping kids...and adults...embrace their gifts, manage energetic overload, and step fully into their purpose as healers in a world that desperately needs them. This one hit home for us in a big way. Our own 14-year-old joined us off-camera during the interview, and what unfolded was a powerful, real-time teaching moment about how kids today are feeling everything; the energy, the emotions, the collective chaos, and don't always know what to do with it. Kris broke it all down in a way that's both practical and profound: How to help kids recognize when the “bad vibes” they're feeling aren't theirs.Why our words literally program our reality (and how to stop accidentally affirming what we don't want).How to protect your energy from “poison darts” being thrown by others.The quick “reset” technique that instantly raises your vibration.And why two simple words—“I AM”—might just be the key to reconnecting with Source itself.This conversation goes from parenting to planetary healing, from teenage angst to ascension, and it might just reframe the way you think about energy hygiene forever. As Kris puts it, “Everyone's gifts are awakening globally. Our job now is to teach the young ones how to use them.” Episode HighlightsWhat happens when kids come in already tuned into higher frequenciesHow lower vibrational environments affect emotional healthWhy gratitude is the fastest “vibe shifter” there isThe truth about mindset and the energy behind the words “I am…”How Kris is building an international academy to train future healers (with multilingual video translations!)Why healing others starts with mastering your own vibrationConnect with Kris Owsley Follow Kris (Kristen Terrell Owsley) everywhere: Instagram(https://www.instagram.com/kristenterrellowsley), Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/kristenterrellowsley1111), or join her global community One Tribe Noname' I Am, a space for lightworkers to unite, learn, and grow together. Website: https://kristenterrellowsley.com/This episode is equal parts heart, humor, and healing. Whether you're raising an empathic teen, learning to protect your own energy, or just trying to figure out why you feel drained after being around certain people, this one's for you. Trust me… after this conversation, you'll never use the words “I am” the same way again. Subscribe, Rate & Review!

In the email exchange leading up to our conversation, my guest Kristina Marie wrote "The Hero is Dead."That sentence stopped me in my tracks. It's a suspicion I've had for a while, but maybe there's still a part of me that doesn't want it to be true. "What do you mean? But I love my hero's journey stories!" that part protested.In the episode, Kristina and I dove straight into this topic. We discussed: The new myths we're living, telling, and weaving in the face of crumbling structures and collapsing old paradigmsThe difference between the mystic's journey and the hero or heroine's journeyWhat a transformational story isThe journey of becoming the person who can tell our own stories as its own unique processIt's a profound conversation and my mind was blown with epiphany after epiphany throughout.Here's Kristina's bio:For more than a decade, I worked as a journalist and an editor at top national magazines, including Travel + Leisure and T magazine at the New York Times. Since launching Voyages of the Spirit nine years ago, I've combined my publishing skills, intuitive gifts, and creative wisdom to mentor writers, leaders, visionaries, mystics, and storytellers. I guide my clients in structuring their transformational stories and birthing their books, awakening their creative genius, discovering their personal mythology, and building an ecosystem for their life's work.Join Kristina's group program Story Map.Visit Kristina's website and follow her on Instagram.
