In this episode, Joel Bardall and Todd Von Joel chat with decorators who are using their skills to make a real difference through community projects. They catch up with Jen The Decorator about her experience working on DIY SOS - how she got involved, what the experience was like, and why giving back mattered to her. They also hear from decorator Karis Fear about her work with Band of Builders. Karis discusses the projects she's been part of, and the personal experiences that inspired her to get involved, including her daughter Amelia's journey with dyskinetic cerebral palsy and the challenges of accessing life-changing therapy and support. Later in the episode, Joel and Todd also share their own thoughts on community projects in the trade, what can stop people from getting involved, and why these positive stories deserve far more attention.

In this episode of Be Truly Heard, host Anne Leatherland is joined by Karis Gill, storytelling trainer and founder of a social enterprise gift hamper company - a venture that transformed her understanding of how stories win hearts, rooms and funding.Karis came to storytelling not through a course or a career choice but through seven figures worth of rejected funding applications. When she rebuilt her pitch deck using the principles of story, everything changed. Now she teaches others how to do the same. In this conversation, she and Anne explore why our brains are wired for story, what goes wrong in delivery and how the right story told in the right way can be the most powerful tool a business owner has.Key TakeawaysThe founder story is not about you - it is about your client seeing themselves in you.Most people avoid telling their founder story because it feels self-indulgent. But done well, it is not about showing off. It is about creating a connection, demonstrating your values and giving someone a reason to trust you. Avoiding it just leaves a gap where that trust could have been.Conversion stories only work if the listener can see themselves in them.It is not enough to share an impressive outcome. The audience needs to recognise the thoughts, feelings and fears of the person in the story as their own. Without that relatability, the listener thinks that is great for someone else - but not for me.Delivery is where most stories fall flat.The single most effective shift is to relive the story as if it is happening now. Not performing it, not reciting it - actually re-experiencing it. When the teller is genuinely inside the moment, the listener feels it too. When they are not, no amount of good content can close that gap.Confidence in storytelling is not fixed - it can be built.If you start from the belief that you are rubbish at storytelling, your delivery will confirm it. Building confidence means practising with people you trust, trying gestures and dialogue, and gradually learning that your story is worth telling and that people genuinely want to hear it.Key Moments"We rebuilt the pitch using the principles of story - and then we just kept winning everything.""When you hear information in story, the criticising dials down and the imagination dials up. That is why story is so effective.""We make decisions based on emotion and back them up with logic - which is why we think they are logical decisions. But they are not.""Relive the story as if it is happening right now. Because the person hearing it probably is hearing it for the first time.""If you tell a really effective sad story, the whole room feels it. That is the power of storytelling - you can control how everyone feels."About the guestKaris Gill is a storytelling trainer who helps business owners and leaders use story to attract, nurture and convert clients. Her work grew out of building a successful social enterprise, where she discovered that stories, not facts, win trust, funding and belief. Karis teaches a practical framework built around founder, process and conversion stories, helping people communicate with clarity, confidence and emotional impact. About the HostWith over 28 years' experience, Anne Leatherland helps clients develop vocal confidence and personal growth. Her holistic approach bridges science, education and the performing arts, supporting women to be truly heard in business.Find out more: https://anneleatherland.co.uk/

What happens when the job you thought you were returning to after parental leave no longer exists? In this episode, I speak with executive leader and solo mum Karis Dorrigan, who shares her experience of being made redundant while on maternity leave during COVID, and how that moment became a turning point in redefining her career, ambition, and life. This is an honest and powerful conversation about the realities many women face but rarely talk about - redundancies whilst on parental leave, job insecurity, lack of support from employer, navigating the return to work, and the pressure to “be grateful” just to have a job. It's also a story of rebuilding, advocating for what you need, and designing a career that actually works for you as a mum and senior leader in an organisation. If you're returning to work after parental leave, or questioning what you want your career to look like after having children, this episode will leave you feeling seen, validated and empowered. We chat about: Karis's career journey from Qantas to executive leadership, and how becoming a mum changed everything Being made redundant on parental leave during COVID, and what employers should do differently How getting clear on your values becomes your compass for every big career and life decision The systems and structures still holding working mums back (and the small changes that would make a real difference) Why Karis works four days a week, rarely goes into the office, and has a no-meeting Tuesday and how she made that happen The truth about solo parenting in Australia: 1 in 5 households, high rates of poverty, and why policy needs to catch up Why you should stop being grateful for flexibility and start advocating boldly for what you need Her call to action for every leader: would a single mum apply for this role? If not, rewrite it.   Episode links Connect with Karis on LinkedIn Follow Working Mumma on Instagram @workingmummacommunity or LinkedIn

Außerdem geht es um Rocky auf der Bühne, Lieblingshörspiele, Rocky Beach Crimes, Fanwünsche zu Jelena, Kelly & Co. und Karis nächste Projekte rund um die drei Fragezeichen – plus ein Ausflug in ein ganz anderes Hörspiel‑Genre.Viel Freude beim Zuhören – und folgt uns auf Instagram (@diggytalk) für exklusive Einblicke aus den Bereichen Hörspiel, Synchron und Film.Impressum: www.diggytalk.de/impressum.html© 2026 Diggytalk – eingetragene Marke von Dominik Grote Hosted on Acast.

more:fluentfiction.com/no/episode/2026-01-04-08-38-20-no Story Transcript:No: Snøen lå som et mykt, tykt teppe over Oslos nabolag, og de varme lysene fra husene skinte gjennom vintermørket.En: The snow lay like a soft, thick blanket over Oslo's neighborhoods, and the warm lights from the houses shone through the winter darkness.No: Nils pakket ivrig skiene inn i bilen, mens Kari sjekket kartet for veien til hytta.En: Nils eagerly packed the skis into the car, while Kari checked the map for the way to the cabin.No: Det var starten på et nytt år, og begge var klare for en pause fra julens hektiske dager.En: It was the start of a new year, and both were ready for a break from the hectic holiday days.No: "Jeg trenger fjellets stillhet," sa Nils med et glimt i øyet.En: "I need the silence

Send us a textWhat if the church is great at events but weak at community—and young adult ministry is stuck in the middle? We open with a hard look at crowd-driven models that produce energy without mentorship, then pivot to what actually changes lives: hospitality, accountability, and intergenerational wisdom. Karis shares a pivotal story of a young adults leader who asked her, “Are you really a Christian?”—a painful question that led to repentance and growth. That moment reframes the whole debate: programs don't transform people, people do.We dig into identity in the age of social media and why the “I can do better” mindset quietly destroys promising relationships. From group dates that raise honesty to small groups that practice real care, we offer simple structures that keep character ahead of chemistry. We get practical on preferences and apps—why “build your own partner” checklists miss the point, how to spot aligned values and direction, and when to trust long-term potential over instant spark. Age gaps get a nuanced treatment too: sometimes they reflect maturity and shared mission, sometimes they mask responsibility avoidance. The key is motive, trade-offs, and the community that will hold a couple together once the novelty fades.For divorced singles reentering the scene, we talk healing without perfectionism, boundaries without fear, and the wisdom pain can produce when guided by mentors. And we end with a provocative idea: matchmaking as a modern, voluntary version of arranged marriage, where introductions come with advocates who stay. Call it a band-aid in a bridge-less age, but it points to a larger goal—a church culture where elders shepherd, hospitality is normal, and people are seen beyond Sundays.Tune in for a candid, hope-filled guide to choosing community over anonymity, conviction over convenience, and growth over the myth of the unicorn. If this resonates, share it with a friend, subscribe for more honest conversations, and leave a review with the one belief about dating or church you're rethinking now.Support the show

Most of us probably experienced a homogenous version of literacy in our English classes: read a book, answer a few questions along the way, and compose an essay at the end about how we viewed a key theme. Rinse and repeat. And in our current age of high-stakes testing and high-stakes literacy, some kids are lucky to ever encounter a book at all; however, those same students are also surrounded by the narratives and themes of English class - in the messages they send and receive and the virtual communities they participate in, the media they consume and discuss with their friends, and in the video games they play. The goal of my guests today is to expand our vision of what that English class could be and induct students into something of an animistic perspective of literacy, as you heard from one guest in the opening: that the narratives and themes of English class are everywhere for those equipped to see them as such. Their Reader-Player Interactivity Framework aims to give teachers and students the tools and confidence to do just that. Their paper, linked in the show notes, is a collaboration between Karis Jones, Brady Nash, Virginia Killian Lund, Scott Storm, Alex Corbitt, Beth Krone, and Trevor Aleo, of which Karis, Brady, Virginia, and Trevor joined me for this conversation.Article: The Reader-Player Interactivity Framework: How Do Readers Navigate Diverse Varieties of Narrative Texts?Unsilencing Gratia: a tabletop RPG book designed to be an easy introduction to collaborative storytelling, usable in a classroom setting.We Know Something You Don't Know: a tabletop RPG that invites you into the lives of students making their way day-by-day through the education system.You can reach any of our guests by email:Trevor Aleo: aleotc@gmail.comKaris Jones: karis.michelle.jones@gmail.comVirginia Killian Lund: vkillianlund@uri.eduBrady Nash: bradylnash@gmail.com

This week, Dudley and his daughter Karis continue their conversation, unpacking the Gospel Truth about living with faith and courage as The Second Coming draws near. In it, he explores how believers can stand strong amid an Apocalypse Rising, equipped with the Armor of God to push back darkness and reveal the light of Christ in a world searching for hope.Drawing from prophetic Scripture, Dudley reminds us that the end of the age isn't a story of despair but of redemption—where the Church shines brightest in times of testing. You'll gain fresh perspective on how God's people are called not to fear the future, but to prepare their hearts for the return of the King.Get Dudley's Weekly Word delivered right to your inbox every Friday!

This week, Dudley and his daughter, Karis, unpack one of the most talked-about themes in modern Christianity — Dispensationalism vs. Covenant Theology — and how it shapes what many believe about the Rapture, the Tribulation, and Israel in Bible prophecy. Tracing the roots of popular end-times teachings, Dudley explains how ideas like the Battle of Armageddon, a divided view of God's people, and a future separation between Israel and the Church took hold over time—and why the Bible actually reveals a far more unified story of redemption through Jesus Christ.In this thought-provoking message, you'll discover how understanding Scripture as one continuous story changes the way we see prophecy, history, and God's unfolding purpose for His people and His church in the world today.Get Dudley's Weekly Word delivered right to your inbox every Friday!

This week, Dudley and his daughter, Karis, unpack what Scripture truly means when it speaks of the Last Days and how so much confusion around End Times Prophecy can fade when we see the Bible as one unfolding story centered on Jesus. He reminds us that the “signs” many point to—wars, disasters, or tension in Israel—are not meant to stir fear but to point us toward the redemptive work already begun through Jesus' resurrection.Dudley also shares insights from his new end times book, At Last, and he explores how the destruction of the temple marked not the end of the world, but the dawning of a new spiritual awakening—a kingdom birthed in the hearts of believers. The conversation calls us to live with hope, not anxiety, knowing the story ends with Christ's victory and the renewal of all things.Get Dudley's Weekly Word delivered right to your inbox every Friday!

Elbert “Pastor El” was born and raised in Jackson, MS. After graduating with a Mechanical Engineering degree from Alabama A&M, he worked for General Electric in Ohio. Having seen drugs devastate his family in Jackson, Elbert later witnessed God bring healing and transformation through the gospel, which led to his own conversion while reading the Bible in his apartment. His passion for sharing Christ grew into prison ministry, and after marrying his wife, Karen, he returned to Jackson to attend Reformed Theological Seminary. While serving at Redeemer Church, he helped launch Reformed University Fellowship at Jackson State University and in 2015 was called as Redeemer's Senior Pastor. Elbert and Karen have two children, Karis and Tripp, and remain devoted to Jackson, its people, and God's work of making broken things new.   Sermon recorded October 19, 2025 Rev.

I am just back from a vacation that took me across three states, one Navajo reservation, and some federal land in the southwest of the United States. Departing the humid and heavily greened northeast to the dry and brown and red landscapes of the southwest was a major transition. I have never spent that much time in that part of the country, so it was, you might say, quite the experience. Traveling throughout the region really revealed the expansiveness of it. The lack of foliage will do that as you can kind of see to the horizon between the buttes and mesas. It also was my first time flying in a long time where I didn't have to take off my shoes going through security. That was exciting. Well, maybe not exciting but one less thing to manage and deal with given all the other rules and restrictions that we have to face when trying to get to our lanes. When thinking about the trip and all the jurisdictions I crossed, it can be hard to keep track of what I can and cannot do. City laws, state laws, federal laws, tribal laws, airport regulations. What's legal in Vegas is not legal in Sedona. What you might be able to do in Page, Arizona isn't necessarily the same as St. George, Utah. You get the point. And let's keep in mind that all of this started in Boston, Massachusetts. The law can be complicated no matter what, and only becomes that much more challenging when you are throwing in all of these different environments. And did I mention the seemingly constant shift in time zones as you cross different borders? My guest today has a keen interest in making the law more manageable. Professor Demetrios Karis has been exploring ways of improving legal design to improve access and outcomes for citizens engaging the courts. As we discuss, there is plenty of work to do that keeps him and his students busy. From legal forms, to wayfinding in courts, to translating legal procedures, to legal language itself, the law has a lot of room to make things easier and create better experiences.I talk with Demetrios, who is a colleague of mine at Bentley University, about the origins of his user experience career through this PhD in Experimental Psychology from Cornell. He shares his first job at Grumman Aircraft, where he was looking at the design of cockpits and instrumentation as part of their internal research and development group. He shares his journey to Verizon, and then to Google where he learned more about doing qualitative research and ethnography. He then discusses how his teaching at Bentley University and experiences in the court system resulted in working with the Massachusetts courts to try to improve access and usability of courts and the law. As he states, the court system is designed by lawyers for lawyers. Despite that, more people are representing themselves, which results in massive challenges on what to do and how to do it. We also talk about his writing on the collapse of human civilization resulting from the sustainability crisis, and how we need to tackle challenges in complex systems through intensive study, creativity, and determination to make positive changes. Demetrios Karis LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/demetrioskaris/Demetrios Karis Researchgate: https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Demetrios-Karis

It has pressed pause on its own investigation to make way for a new government rapid review to be led by Baroness Valerie Amos. So why are the findings of multiple reports and reviews not yet leading to change? Nuala finds out with BBC Social Affairs correspondent Michael Buchanan, and maternity campaigner Emily Barley, who lost her own daughter due to maternity failings in 2022.Winner of the Women's Prize for Playwriting 2022, Karis Kelly's play Consumed is described as a pitch-black and twisted comedy of dysfunctional family dynamics, generational trauma and national boundaries set in Northern Ireland. Currently well-received on stage at the Edinburgh Festival, Karis explains why she chose to focus her story on the lives of four generations of women from the same family.You might love your local river, but enough to marry it?

Bible Reading: Psalm 107:8-9; Hebrews 5:12-14"Why does Pastor Evans have to preach such long sermons?" grumbled Jasper on the way home from church. "It's always so boring!""I actually wished Pastor Evans hadn't quit so soon," said Dad. "He helped me understand some verses that had been hard for me to grasp before.""Well, my Sunday school class is always really boring too," added Jasper."My class isn't boring," said his sister Karis. "Today we talked about the Israelites in the wilderness and learned a new song. What was your class about?"Jasper shrugged. "I don't know--I wasn't really paying attention."After lunch, Jasper put some scraps in the cat's food dish. "Come here, Mac! Look what I've got for you." The cat walked to the dish, sniffed the food, and walked away with his tail held high. Jasper shook his head. "That cat has no idea what's good," he muttered. Karis was standing at the window, looking out. "Come see the baby birds in their nest! The mother bird brought food for them, and they all have their mouths wide open!"Jasper went to look. "Well, they're way smarter than Mac. He wouldn't even taste the food I offered him.""I guess he's not hungry," said Karis."Grandma always says he's just finicky--choosy about his food. I'm sure he'd like what I gave him if he'd try it, but he won't."Mom walked up behind them. "That's probably why you were bored at church today while the rest of us got a lot out of it.""I was bored because Mac won't eat?" asked Jasper. "What do you mean?""What I mean is that, like the baby birds, we were hungry--we had hungry hearts. They were open and eager to hear from Jesus as we listened to see what spiritual food He was offering through our pastor and Sunday school teachers. But like Mac, you wouldn't even try it. You expected to be bored, so you didn't even bother listening and thinking about what was being said." Mom placed a hand on Jasper's shoulder. "Next time, how about really listening? Think about the lessons and how they apply to your life. Ask God to give you a hungry heart with an appetite for spiritual food."–Mary Rose Pearson How About You?When you read your Bible or go to church, is your heart open to learning what God wants to say to you? Or do you just count the minutes until it's over? Jesus wants to fill your heart with good spiritual food from His Word and remind you of His love and promises. But that can't happen if you close yourself off and refuse to listen. Trust Him to open your heart to His Word so He can nourish your soul.Today's Key Verse:Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be filled. (NKJV) (Matthew 5:6)Today's Key Thought:Open your heart to God's Word
