Episode Overview Churches often know they need small groups, but creating a small group movement requires more than good curriculum or a one-time training session. Brian Miller talks with Jim Jansen about why coaching may be the missing piece. Rather than trying to teach new facilitators everything they could possibly need to know before they begin, churches can give them enough to get started and then surround them with ongoing encouragement, questions, listening, and support as real challenges arise. Jim introduces a simple structure for sustainable small group movements and explains why the often-missing role—the coach or mentor who comes alongside group facilitators—can make the difference between having a collection of groups and developing a movement that changes a church's culture. Key Ideas & Takeaways Content usually isn't the problem. Churches already have an enormous amount of small group content available. More information alone won't create a healthy movement. Too much upfront training can actually become a barrier. Jim describes the mistake of trying to give new facilitators everything he had learned over decades in a two-hour training. Instead of preparing people, it overwhelmed them. Give leaders enough to begin, then support them as they learn. A coaching environment allows facilitators to deal with challenges when those challenges are actually being experienced. Not everyone needs the same training. One leader may need help with a participant who dominates the conversation, while another needs to learn how to draw quieter people into the discussion. Coaching allows development to become individualized. There are probably more potential small group leaders than current small group leaders. The gap may not be a lack of capable people. It may be a lack of ongoing encouragement and support. Jim's small group movement structure includes several levels: Participants who belong to the group. Facilitators who lead the groups. Coaches or mentors who support the facilitators. Movement leaders who coordinate the overall ministry. In some settings, the pastor may provide another level of leadership. The coach or mentor is often the missing role. This person comes alongside facilitators, helps them reflect on what is happening in their groups, and helps them work through ordinary leadership challenges. As a movement grows, coaching needs to multiply. A movement leader may initially coach three or four facilitators personally. Once that grows to seven, ten, or more leaders, additional coaches are needed. The coaches may require more intentional development than the facilitators. A mentor who becomes overly prescriptive can unintentionally create dependence rather than develop the facilitator. A coach doesn't assume they know the answer. Coaching helps facilitators develop their own ability to think, discern, solve problems, and make decisions. A coaching approach begins with humility. Jim describes foundational assumptions that the Spirit of God is already at work, people are intelligent, and the coach does not know everything about the situation. Confidence in people is contagious. Facilitators can sense when someone believes they are capable and trusts that God is working in and through them. Powerful questions can redirect a facilitator's attention. Asking, "What is the Lord doing in this group?" can move a leader beyond logistical frustrations and help them recognize what is actually happening in people's lives. Look beneath difficult behavior. When a participant is disagreeable or disruptive, Brian suggests asking, "What does that person need?" rather than immediately focusing on how to stop the behavior. Intentional listening is a core coaching skill. Effective leaders listen beyond words to facial expressions, body language, emotions, and what God may be doing beneath the surface. Observations can create awareness without becoming prescriptive advice. Simple statements such as "You seem frustrated" or "You might need to start on time" give the facilitator something to wrestle with without taking ownership of the decision away from them. Don't assume everyone dislikes the things you dislike. Facilitators can unnecessarily carry responsibilities because they assume nobody else would want them. Inviting others to contribute can develop new leaders and give people meaningful ways to serve. Encouragement matters. Small group facilitators regularly need someone reminding them that they are doing better than they think and that ordinary struggles do not mean they are failing. Memorable Quotes & Ideas "If content were the problem, we would have had that fixed a long time ago, because we are swimming in content." "There are probably more people who are capable of leading a small group than are currently leading a small group." "Sometimes mentors become prescriptive." "The Spirit of God is working through this facilitator." "People can feel the confidence you have in them." "What is the Lord doing in this group?" "What does that person need?" "People have to own that decision for themselves." "You cannot over-encourage these small group facilitators." From groups to a movement: The key difference isn't simply starting more groups. It is creating an internal support structure that continually develops the people leading those groups. Train for reality rather than every possibility: Instead of anticipating every problem in advance, equip facilitators with the basics and give them access to someone who can help them think when actual problems arise. Coaching develops leaders instead of creating dependence: A prescriptive mentor becomes the person with all the answers. A coach helps the facilitator become increasingly capable of navigating challenges themselves. A simple coaching toolkit: Powerful questions, intentional listening, concise observations, and encouragement can dramatically improve the experience of a small group facilitator without requiring the coach to be an expert in every situation.

Episode SummaryThis is a solo Mini Mikkipedia on emotional eating, prompted by a practitioner who asked Mikki how to help a client who describes herself as a lifelong emotional eater — someone who eats when she is stressed, eats when the day has been long and she finally sits down, and has tried everything she has read about without anything sticking. Rather than going straight to coping strategies, Mikki starts by asking whether it is emotional eating at all.The answer she gives is careful. Emotional eating is measured by questionnaires like the Dutch Eating Behaviour Questionnaire and the Emotional Eating Scale, but when high scorers are put in a lab under a genuinely induced negative mood, they largely do not eat more than anyone else — and the group that reliably does eat more is restrained eaters, meaning dieters. That does not make emotional eating imaginary: it shows up consistently in clinical binge eating, and phone-based sampling in ordinary life does show boredom, stress and low mood preceding craving. Mikki's position is that someone calling themselves an emotional eater is describing something real but may have the mechanism wrong. A large share of it, she argues, is under-fuelling, chaotic eating and under-sleeping with an emotional trigger sitting on top — so the mechanical causes come first, and only what survives that audit is worth treating as an emotional problem. The second half is practical: regular eating structure, tracking the trigger rather than the food, one if-then plan, affect labelling, and letting a self-limiting urge pass. Useful if you work with clients who use this label about themselves, or you use it about yourself.Key TopicsWhy the emotional eating questionnaires may not measure what they claim — high scorers largely do not eat more than anyone else when negative mood is genuinely induced in a lab, and across a meta-analysis of 56 experimental studies in nearly 3,700 participants the group who reliably ate more were dieters, not self-identified emotional eatersWhere emotional eating does hold up: clinical binge eating, and real-life phone sampling showing boredom, stress and low mood preceding cravingRestraint as a driver — attempted restriction predicting the next loss-of-control episode better than actual restriction did, and why the attempt matters more than the achieved deficitThe mechanical audit to run first: enough food earlier in the day, protein at each meal, satiety signals like volume, speed, texture and flavour, long gaps without eating, and sleepHow sleep restriction raises ghrelin, lowers leptin and shifts brain activity away from the frontal and insular regions towards the amygdala — and why someone on six hours of sleep presents identically to an emotional eater but needs a different interventionThe two patterns worth distinguishing: clock-locked eating that goes sideways between five and ten at night regardless of the day, and situation-locked eating that tracks events insteadWhy a regular eating structure removes the physiological amplifier and makes the emotional signal visibleTracking the trigger rather than the food for two weeks, why most people find their triggers far narrower than they assumed, and why an if-then plan works better when it adds a behaviour than when it removes oneAffect labelling, and urges being self-limiting — rising, peaking and falling within about 10 to 20 minutes whether or not you act on themSelf-criticism after an episode reliably predicting more eating, and self-compassion tested as the alternativeChapters00:00 Introduction and the emotional eating label04:00 Ruling out under-fuelling and sleep06:59 Clock-locked versus situation-locked eating09:52 Building a regular eating structure11:55 Tracking the trigger and if-then plans14:09 Affect labelling and riding out the urge16:27 Self-compassion and when to refer on18:33 Recap and closeQuestionnaires discussedDutch Eating Behaviour Questionnaire (DEBQ) — van Strien, T., Frijters, J.

"What does it take to turn a working-class school around?" Distinguished Professor Jonathan Jansen went back to school. Not to lecture, but to teach Grade 10 Physical Science, sit in the principal's office, and help fix a Cape Flats high school that had produced the worst matric results in the Western Cape. Journalist and founder of The Education Desk Janet Heard sits down with him for a searching conversation on his new book Worth the Fight: Fixing Failure in South African Schools, and what two years inside a failing school taught him about the education system, the children caught in it, and what real change actually requires. Jonathan Jansen's new book is Worth the Fight: Fixing Failure in South African Schools. Part memoir, part case study and part call to action, this is essential reading for parents, educators, policy makers and anyone who cares about the future of South Africa's children. Jonathan Jansen is Distinguished Professor of Education at Stellenbosch University. The eldest son of a preacher and a nurse, he grew up on the Cape Flats and was a biology teacher in the Cape before studies abroad and a long career in South African university leadership. Janet Heard is a writer, editor and media leader whose early career was forged during South Africa's transition to democracy. She is the founder of The Education Desk, an independent non-profit newsroom dedicated to in-depth coverage of the country's education system.

Willkommen bei der Kirche für Düsseldorf

ALSO SEE: SynopsisIn this episode of the IPS Deprogram, the host explores the concept of the “Metascript,” a framework for understanding how world history is allegedly manufactured through the synchronization of news events with entertainment media. The discussion focuses on recent celebrity news, upcoming media releases, and historical “psyops” to argue that public reality is a pre-scripted hyperreality rather than a series of organic occurrences.Topics of Discussion* The Panettiere-Mangione Connection: Analyzing the recent death of actress Hayden Panettiere, her connections to solar eclipse symbolism in the show Heroes, and the theory that her brother, Jansen, may have been repurposed as the figure Luigi Mangione.* Class Warfare Psyops: Investigating how the story of Luigi Mangione reflects concurrent programming found in the Netflix series The Madness, involving themes of tech billionaires, ghost guns, and organized civil unrest.* Metascripters and Narrative Control: A look at prominent film directors like James Cameron, Christopher Nolan, and Stanley Kubrick, whose works are described as coordinated with psychological operations (psyops) to shape the public's perception of history.* The Trump-Obama Proxy Patterns: Examining the Netflix series A Man in Full (based on a 1998 Tom Wolfe novel) and other films to show how fictional “proxies” for Donald Trump and Barack Obama are used to foreshadow or mirror real-world political conflicts.* Symbolism in Manufactured Events: Discussing recurring “hoax indicators,” such as the presence of shoes at crisis scenes, the use of numerology (specifically 1.6/January 6th and 9/11), and the “engineered coincidences” of high-profile deaths.* The Handbook for the Recently Deprogrammed: Announcing the second edition of a manual designed to help individuals step “off the world stage” by systemizing the deconstruction of media narratives.* Predictability as Proof: Asserting that the ability to forecast news events based on entertainment cues proves the non-random nature of modern history.Key Quotes* “This is life following Netflix or more accurately, PSYOPs synchronized with Netflix.”* “The synchronization between entertainment and psyops is a consistent facet.”* “What we're looking at here is a manufactured reality, a pre-scripted history.”* “If you can find a real life event that gets national coverage, global coverage that corresponds because it's synchronized with something in entertainment... let me know.”* “Our future is augmented. Our future is pre-written.”Metascript defines the synchronization of entertainment and news as a structural and consistent facet of modern reality rather than a collection of random occurrences. This synchronization is characterized as “engineered coincidences” designed to manufacture history and shape public worldview.The sources detail several key aspects of how this synchronization functions:* Engineered Coincidences: The synchronization is not considered mystical but a “mundane” form of propaganda that can be explained through empirical research and observation. It involves real-life events receiving global media coverage that correspond specifically with themes or plots in entertainment.* Predictability: A core tenet of the Metascript model is that these alignments are predictable. The speaker argues that the ability to forecast events based on entertainment cues proves that the news is pre-planned rather than random.* The Role of “Metascripters”: Film directors and writers (such as Christopher Nolan, James Cameron, and Stanley Kubrick) are described as “metascripters” whose works are coordinated with psychological operations (psyops) to help manufacture history.* Concurrent and Predictive Programming:* Concurrent Programming occurs when entertainment is released alongside matching news events, such as the Netflix series The Madness featuring a storyline similar to the concurrent news story of Luigi Mangione.* Predictive Programming involves entertainment foreshadowing future events, such as a 1998 Tom Wolfe novel containing nuances that allegedly mirrored Donald Trump's life in 2024.* A “Major Hoax Indicator”: Within this framework, the occurrence of synchronized entertainment or drills alongside a news event is considered “proof positive” that the event was faked or simulated.* Hyperreality: The result of this synchronization is a “fictional universe superimposed over the real world,” creating a “hyperreality” where it becomes difficult for the public to separate real events from staged “works”.

On this episode of The Roundtable, we're examining the tragic story of Hayden Panettiere and asking a much larger question about the entertainment industry that raised her: what is the true cost of child stardom?We begin with the shocking timeline surrounding Hayden's sudden death at just 36 years old, breaking down her final trip to South Carolina, the 911 call, the extensive emergency response, and the unanswered questions surrounding what happened during those final hours. Then we examine the scene details that have fueled intense speculation online—including the presence of Narcan, references to an overdose in emergency dispatch communications, and the possibility that the circumstances may be far more complicated than the narrative taking shape on social media.We also look back at Hayden's extraordinary—and deeply troubling—history as a child star, beginning with a career that started before she was even a year old and culminating in global fame with Heroes. We explore revelations from her memoir about being given so-called "happy pills" as a teenager to keep her energetic during press appearances and demanding work schedules, and what her story reveals about an entertainment industry financially incentivized to keep young performers working regardless of the long-term consequences.Then we turn to her years on Nashville, when Hayden's real-life struggles with postpartum depression and addiction became intertwined with the storyline of her character, Juliette Barnes. We discuss the uncomfortable ethical questions surrounding Hollywood's tendency to turn an actor's private trauma into public entertainment, as well as Hayden's heartbreaking decision to give primary custody of her daughter Kaya to her father while she sought treatment.Finally, we dive into the devastating final years of Hayden's life following the sudden death of her younger brother, Jansen, and examine how grief, chronic pain, addiction, physical health struggles, and decades of extraordinary pressure may have compounded one another. We also confront the way the public repeatedly interpreted Hayden's visible struggles through the most sensational lens possible—even as she attempted to reclaim her own story.Throughout the episode, one question connects every part of Hayden's story: when a public figure tells us exactly what they're struggling with, do we actually listen—or do we simply consume their pain as another form of entertainment?Pull up a chair… the conversation about Hayden Panettiere, child stardom, exploitation, and the true cost of fame starts now.Disclosure: This episode of the "Roundtable" series incorporates AI-assisted technology in its creation and production.

Send us Fan MailMark O'Connell, Eddie Reyes and Mike Jensen from the band ME stop by the show to discuss, how the band came together, how Mike packed a bag after getting a call and took a risk that changed his life, as well as the future. *****ME. wasn't supposed to be a band. After nearly a decade apart, former Taking Back Sunday founding members Mark O'Connell and Eddie Reyes started writing together again with no intention of forming one. They had already experienced what happens when something you built stops feeling like your own.The distance between them hadn't come from one moment, but from years of miscommunication and assumptions. When Eddie exited the band in 2018 under difficult circumstances, he believed Mark had known more than he actually did, when in reality, Mark had been kept in the dark. For years, each of them carried a version of the story the other didn't even know existed. It wasn't until much later that they began to understand what really happened, and how closely their experiences mirrored each other.The first real step back came from an unexpected place. Eddie's son, Jonas, encouraged Mark to reach out to his dad. After a brief reconnection, Casey Carter, a lifelong Taking Back Sunday fan turned friend who had stepped away from the music world years earlier to raise her daughter, helped turn that first step into something that actually moved. Casey ultimately got Mark and Eddie back in the same room for the first time in nearly a decade and helped keep the fragile reunion moving forward when old tensions and outside influences threatened to derail it.It wasn't easy. At first, they struggled just to exist in the same space together. But slowly, through writing, the tension started to give way to something else.They didn't take that lightly. They had both lived through what happens when something meaningful gets pulled apart, and neither of them were interested in repeating it. This time, they protected the process. They kept it close, kept it honest, and kept it theirs.So they set rules: no frontman, no hierarchy. Just ten songs and ten different vocalists.For the first time in years, everything was theirs. Mark and Eddie wrote and recorded all ten instrumentals themselves, building the songs from the ground up with a level of creative control they hadn't experienced since the early days of Tell All Your Friends. Those instrumentals became something more than just songs. They were a way of working through everything that hadn't been said, tension, confusion, frustration, and loss, without having to explain it out loud. There was something familiar in them too. Not in a nostalgic, looking-back kind of way, but in the feeling. The kind of sound that pulls you back to a version of yourself you remember, even when everything around you has changed. To kick off the project, they launched an open casting call. They released one instrumental publicly and invited singers to submit vocals. While some strong submissions came in, nothing quite landed.Then something unexpected happened. While scrolling through Instagram, Casey came across Chicago musician Mike Jansen, someone she had known years earlier. Remembering both his voice and who he was as a person, she reached out to see if he might be interested in contributing to the project, not realizing he had already found the casting call himself and started working on a submission.When he finally sent it through, the reaction was immediate.Casey played it for Mark. After listening, he looked at her and asked,“Did you tell him everything?”She hadn't.But somehow, the lyrics landed exactly where it hurt. They spoke directly to experiences Jansen had no way of knowing, reflecting years of history, tension, and things left unsaid.Jansen was flown out to meet the guys at Applehead Recording in Woodstock, NY. He began by recording the track he had submitted, which ultimately became “Special.” But it was another song, “Grown Man,” that changed everything. When he played the demo he had prepared, the shift in the room was immediate. It was one of those rare moments where everyone hears it at once.They didn't change it. The version on the record is almost identical to that first demo.Sometimes the right voice doesn't just sing the songs.It says the things no one else could.At one point, Casey mentioned the band might want him to stay another night or two. Jansen didn't hesitate.“That's cool,” he said. “I didn't pack for a night. I packed for two weeks.”He felt it before anyone said it out loud.Like he trusted something they were still learning how to believe in again.The instrumentals themselves had been written in a very different headspace. For Mark and Eddie, they were a way of working through years of tension, confusion, and unresolved pain. The music was raw, unfiltered, and deeply personal.When Jansen stepped in, he brought something entirely different. As an outsider, he wasn't carrying that same history. Instead, he layered his own perspective, his own lyrics, and his own story over what they had created.That distance changed everything. It allowed the music to be heard differently, not as something stuck in the past, but as something evolving beyond it.It gave them just enough space to look at it without being pulled under by it.In that sense, Jansen didn't just step into the project. He helped redefine it.Letting him in wasn't automatic. For Mark and Eddie, it meant confronting something deeper, not just whether the music worked, but whether they were willing to trust a frontman again after everything they had been through.It wasn't easy. But it was necessary.Because starting over doesn't mean forgetting. It means deciding it's still worth trying again.As producer Chris Bittner put it,“When the universe gives you a gift like this, you don't say, ‘No thank you. Maybe later.'”Not long after, Neal Amiruddin stepped in on bass. Neal had been part of their lives since childhood, growing up alongside Mark and longtime friend Shaun Cooper in the same tight-knit group of kids who first bonded over music. When those relationships fractured in early 2024, Neal found himself on the outside alongside Mark. His return didn't feel like adding a bassist so much as bringing a brother back into the fold.The music that followed didn't come from a comfortable place. Much of it was written during one of the most turbulent periods of the band members' lives, surrounded by personal upheaval, lawsuits, and the kind of chaos that leaves no room to hide.The result is ALL GOOD THINGS, a record built from fragments of the past but firmly rooted in the present. It carries echoes of where these musicians came from, but it isn't interested in recreating it. Instead, the band leans into something more human: the messy, imperfect process ofstarting over. The part no one talks about. The part where you're not sure it's going to work, but you do it anyway.For Mark and Eddie, it's the first time in years that making music has felt fully theirs again.For Mike, it became the moment where preparation met opportunity.And for everyone involved, it's proof that sometimes the most meaningful things come from finally seeing things clearly and choosing not to walk away, even when it would have been easier.ME. isn't a reunion. It's a rebirth.****If you would like to contact the show Dauna@betertopodcast.comFollow us on Social MediaYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCX0ETs2wpOHbCuhUNr0XFTw?view_as=subscriberInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/author_d.m.needom/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/bettertopodcastwithdmneedomSupport the podcast here: https://www.patreon.com/bettertopodcastwithdmneedom©2026 Better To...Podcast with D.

The impact of giving synthetic beings a wallet, an identity, and eventually a body.
