Hanna Kok shares her expertise on the surprising link between forgiveness and physical health, revealing why holding onto grudges causes hormonal imbalances and weakens the immune system. We explore the scientific evidence behind this connection and discuss a practical method for making forgiveness easier.• When we hold grudges, our muscles tighten, restricting blood flow and nutrient delivery throughout the body• Brain function decreases dramatically during conflict—the prefrontal cortex (responsible for wisdom and problem-solving) can switch off up to 85%• Stress emotions attach to cell receptors, triggering responses that put cells in overdrive and eventually lead to health problems• Different organs are sensitive to specific emotions—the liver responds to anger, lungs to grief, and the gut to feelings of abuse• Unforgiveness reduces energy available for immune function, making us more susceptible to illness• The forgiveness method includes identifying what triggered you, recognizing what it reveals about your own healing needs, and seeing the situation as an opportunity for growth• Practical techniques for releasing unforgiveness include journaling, mirror work, and meditationFor more information on improving health through forgiveness, download Hannah's app at hannahcook.com or visit ithrive.zoneSend us a text

Have you ever been skydiving? I haven't! Are you crazy? But, I do know this: You have to trust your instructor. It's very difficult to trust someone that much… We like to be in control of everything that goes on in our lives. Would you consider putting your trust in God? Letting go and fully trusting in God is the best decision you will ever make. The book of Proverbs is full of God's wisdom, and this is what it says: Trust in the Lord with all your heart and don't depend on your own understanding. God wants us to depend on His understanding because He knows how to care for us far better than we can care for ourselves. He is strong, He is loving, He is able to carry all of your burdens. Will you put your trust in Him today? Let go of your fear, and your worries, and your anxiety. Bring it all to God, who loves you without reservation. Always remember, there is hope with God. "Your word is a lamp to guide my feet and a light for my path." Psalm 119:105 radio.hopewithgod.com

"No one wants to leave the IRS more than they have to." By Rory Henry CFP®, BFA™For CPA TrendlinesAn estimated 10 to 12 million Boomer-owned businesses are expected to transition over the next decade. That's a massive wave of planning, liquidity events, and legacy questions. Yet experts say most owners don't engage advisors until they're well into the deal process. MORE Rory Henry and The Holistic Guide to Wealth Management BUY the Holistic Guide to Wealth Management “By the time they come to us, they've often already signed a letter of intent,” laments Randy A. Fox, CFP, AEP, founder of Two Hawks Family Office Services, on a recent panel discussion for contributors to my new book, Holistic Guide to Wealth Management. “That shuts the door on a lot of the strategies that could have helped them keep more of what they built,” Fox added. Fellow contributor and panel discussion guest Christine Nicholson, author, business consultant, and exit planning specialist, has worked with hundreds of owners. She sees the same distorted view of reality cloud their thinking -- owners mistakenly assume their kids will take over and believe their business is worth far more than it really is.

“Authenticity is the daily practice of letting go of who we think we're supposed to be and embracing who we are.” — Brené BrownIn this episode of The Wholehearted Series, we explore the foundational guidepost of living a brave, connected life: Cultivating Authenticity by letting go of what people think.Authenticity isn't a personality trait—it's a daily, courageous practice. It requires self-awareness, self-acceptance, and the willingness to disappoint others rather than abandon ourselves.We'll dive into:What happens when we lack self-awareness and self-knowledgeHow our need for belonging can lead to self-abandonmentToxic guilt, false responsibility, and people-pleasingWhy spiritual formation starts with knowing and accepting yourselfHow self-acceptance sets you free from performance and perfectionismThe cultural and church dynamics that can cause us to mask our true selvesMy personal stories of coming back to Australia, navigating cultural differences, and relearning what it means to belong without betraying myselfThis episode weaves in wisdom from saints, mystics, therapists, and theologians—from St. Teresa of Ávila to Thomas Merton and Pete Scazzero—alongside practical insights on how guilt, fear, and inherited expectations shape our identity.We ask deep questions like:Who did I learn I had to be in order to be loved?Where am I still waiting for permission to be who I already am?How do I come back to myself after years of self-abandonment?And we land in this truth: Your true self is the most generous, humble, and powerful version of you. When you live from that place, you stop performing and start becoming.This episode is an invitation to take up your space, tell the truth, and be who God always dreamed you to be.Get your free Wholehearted Living journal prompts. https://calm-sun-843.myflodesk.com/x5yo2oyoyuBook a free discovery coaching call: www.ella-hooper.comFollow me on Instagram:@ella.hooper__

Let's talk about something real… Fear. Doubt. Uncertainty. They have a sneaky way of showing up anytime we're considering a change, especially when it's tied to our careers or sense of purpose. Dr. Shawnté Elbert knows that feeling. When life threw her a curveball, she realized she had a choice: let fear run the show or practice something different. Her choice? Inhale faith. Exhale fear. It's not just a one-time thing. It's a practice and a mantra—a way of moving forward even when the next step feels unclear. With honesty, humor, and heart, Shawnté shares how she navigated big life pivots, embraced uncertainty, and discovered the value of rewriting her story. Her path is a reminder that fear often signals growth, not failure. If you're standing at a crossroads, feeling unsure of what's next, this conversation will meet you right where you are and inspire you to take your next tiny, brave step forward.

Jessica opens up about her recent radical life shift—leaving behind a thriving online business in Austin, Texas to follow a divine nudge and relocate to Laguna Beach with no plan other than to trust her intuition.

If you've ever struggled with chronic stress, poor sleep, anxiety, or burnout—this episode might just change your life. I'm sitting down with Jim Poole, CEO of NuCalm, to explore the groundbreaking neuroacoustic technology that's helping thousands of people around the world reset their nervous systems—without drugs or side effects.Jim explains how NuCalm works at the intersection of physics, mathematics, and neurobiology, using patented algorithms and biosignal processing to guide the brain into states of deep relaxation.

Jim shares insights on trauma recovery, why traditional talk therapy can fall short, and how we can retrain the brain to unlearn suffering.This conversation was incredibly eye-opening.

As your host, Gina Ryan, I delve into the theme of enoughness, creating a safe and comfortable environment where we can collectively unwind and reconnect with our inherent worth.The episode begins with a heartfelt invitation to pause, as we often rush through life multitasking and striving for perfection. I emphasize the importance of taking a moment to simply be present, without the need to fulfill any external expectations. This moment serves as a sanctuary, allowing us to escape the chaos of daily demands and ground ourselves in the tranquility that comes from acknowledging our enoughness.As we transition into the guided meditation, I encourage listeners to release the inner critic that can weigh heavily on our minds. By creating a space dedicated to self-compassion, we can recognize that our value is not dictated by our productivity but rather by our existence as sentient beings. Through gentle reminders, I help participants reaffirm that they are enough just as they are, separate from accomplishments or societal validations.#AnxietyCoachesPodcast #GuidedMeditation #LettingGoOfPressure #Enoughness #Mindfulness #StressRelief #MentalHealth #SelfCare #InnerPeace #AnxietyRelief #BeEnough #PeaceAndCalm #SelfCompassion #WellnessJourney #MeditationPractice #CalmYourMind #ReleaseStress #FindYourCalm #DailyMeditation #MindfulLiving #EmotionalWellness #HealingJourney #SelfLove #PresenceNotPerfection #DigitalDetox #UnwindAndRelax #BeyondAnxiety #PodcastForWellness #HealthAndHappiness #InnerStrength #BePresent #GentleReminder #FreedomFromPressure #AnxietySupport #MindOverMatter #BreatheAndBe #RestInEnoughness #WorthinessJourney #HumanBeingNotHumanDoing #GinaRyan #ACPSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
