What role does being present play in supporting friends who may need help, and how can we create a safe space for them to reach out? 3. How do we balance our own well-being with the desire to help others, especially when faced with difficult relationships?

It's time to come alive. 

When we feel cared for, our cortisol levels drop, we feel safe, and we handle stress better. Dacher leads a meditation to help us focus on the people who make us feel supported.How To Do This Practice: Get Comfortable: Find a quiet spot. Sit or stand in a relaxed position. Take a few deep breaths to settle your body and mind. Think of a Friend: Picture a friend who has supported you. Notice how it feels to remember their care. What have they given you? Kindness, courage, laughter? Think of a Family Member: Now think of someone in your family (or chosen family) who's helped you. What moment comes to mind? How did they support you? Name what they gave you. Think of a Mentor: Bring to mind a mentor or guide—someone who's taught or encouraged you. How did they help you grow? What gift did they offer? Wisdom, strength, direction? Feel the Support: Picture all three people around you. Let yourself feel supported and held. Breathe in that sense of connection.

Kindness is underrated in dating—but it might just be your real superpower. In this episode, Heath and Jamie get into why kindness (over niceness), and how being genuinely considerate, emotionally aware, and graceful—even in conflict—can change the entire vibe of your relationships. They unpack how kindness isn't about being passive or soft, but about showing up with intention, dignity, and the kind of energy that makes people remember you—even if it doesn't lead to love. Because real kindness? It hits in casual flings and serious things. And it always starts with how you treat yourself.

The dialogue emphasizes the significance of self-worth and the journey of discovering pleasure throughout life, highlighting that intimacy and eroticism can evolve and deepen over time. The speakers encourage listeners to embrace their desires and advocate for their pleasure, regardless of age or past experiences. Enita is a 66-yr old retired queer woman.

April 14, 2025It is tough right now to see all that is happening in our world.Many emotions come up for me that can be paralyzing – keeping me from positivelycontributing my gifts. Yet I can't have my eyes closed and live simply byungrounded hope, because that is denial. I need to live with my eyes open tothe reality of what is happening and my heart open towards community, compassionand comfort.Today we will be practicing Tonglen, which is “giving and receiving”.In this Buddhist practice we identify a feeling/emotion that we areexperiencing and imagine others experiencing the same feeling, even people wedon't know or don't necessarily agree with. Then we send out comfort, love, andlight.For our listening portion today:I amdetermined to cultivate only thoughts that increase trust and loveTo use myhands to perform only deeds that build communityTo speakonly words of harmony and aid.Thich NhatHanhI reference theauthor/scientist Margaret Wheatley, Leadership and the New Science; RestoringSanity: Practices to Awaken Generosity, Creativity, and Kindness in Ourselvesand Our Organizations; and Who Do We Choose to Be

*Trigger Warning: There is mention of domestic abuse in this episode.  Episode #58: In this episode of Tami Talks: Unscripted Healing, I sit down with my dear friend Wendy C. Wilson—speaker, coach, and author of Iron Will—to talk about the long road from childhood trauma to deep healing, purpose, and emotional freedom. Wendy shares how witnessing abuse as a child, walking on eggshells, and struggling with self-worth shaped everything from her relationships to how she showed up at work. We dive into how people-pleasing, silence, and survival mode can follow us into adulthood—and how healing those inner wounds changes everything. This conversation is raw, real, and full of wisdom about breaking cycles, reclaiming your voice, and trusting the timing of your purpose. If you've ever felt like you're still waiting for clarity, this one will hit home.

How ideal does it sound to have a teen that meal plans for your family...all the way though from looking at sales....to choosing good meals...to then making said meals...and even cleaning up after them...Here's the thing...Moms suck at delegating...our brains are hard wired to see all the things that need to be done, to do the things the way we want or need them done, and do it as quickly & efficiently as possible.So it comes down more to building the skill of delegation in motherhood...and the art of making those delegations meaningful and fulfilling work....much more so than it does just getting our kids to do stuff that we see needs to be done....or ridiculously, expecting our kids to just do things that need to be done.Story: Overwhelmed with to do list...Bper helping and tackling things once he was given autonomy and I released control of the outcome.That's what leads to these pay days that serve our entire family, and especially our individual children...because we're raising adults.Choose what to Delegate (04:35)Make it Meaningful (07:35)Clarity is Kindness (11:05)How This Changes Things (14:30)Find the complete podcast notes on our website.To find The Deliberate Day on Instagram, click here.Looking for items shared in our podcasts?!

Imagine this… You’re five years old, and the world is at your feet. You’re in the car with your eight-year-old bro, just picked up from childcare by your dad. But your dad has a plan. That plan involves two gas cylinders he’d strategically placed in the back seat earlier that day… and a cigarette. A horrific act of revenge. A father prepared to kill his two sons (and himself) to spite their mother. Not just to rob her of custody, but to take her children from her entirely. Spencer Connelly doesn’t have to imagine this. It’s his life. A life he’s lucky to still be living. That man, his ‘father’ might be released from prison in the next 12 months. Because apparently, such a monstrous act only warranted a little over a decade behind bars. Spencer is now 17. I just recorded a podcast with him after my dad met him at the grocery store and was enamoured by his spirited personality and kind demeanour. Turns out, he now attends the same school I did back in the day. After an hour of banter, I can tell you this much… Spencer is a testament to the BEST of humanity. Strength. Kindness. Love. Acceptance. Peace. People like Spencer lift us all up. It’s moments like this that make me feel so bloody grateful to do what I do and be able to connect with such incredible humans. Oh, and he featured in Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga so he’s kind of a big deal SPONSORED BY TESTART FAMILY LAWYERS Website: testartfamilylawyers.com.au SPENCER CONNELLY Website: instagram.com/spencerconnellytheofficial/ TIFFANEE COOK Linktree: linktr.ee/rollwiththepunches Website: tiffcook.com LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/tiffaneecook/ Facebook: facebook.com/rollwiththepunchespodcast/ Instagram: instagram.com/rollwiththepunches_podcast/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
