Sit in stillness, in silence, as Julie Potiker leads you through this guided meditation She completes the meditation with the poem, "Hope Waits Its Turn", by Shawn Avenigo Sanders.Like the number I pulled out from the take-your-turn dispenser at the DMV, Hope sits inside my pocket. It takes a seat in the green plastic chair, understanding there are other emotions ahead of it, each with their own urgency. Anxiety likes to hover near the counter,staring at the red flickering number on the wall, while Logic pretends to be in control, recalculating time as the now serving number grows. But Hope watches asintegers glows, notices how light shifts, ever so slightly, through each changing digit, and how zero radiates out from its inner hole. The way Hope shows up when we open to each other, asking, How can I help you today?-Hope Waits Its Turn, by Shawn Avenigo Sanders from her book of poems, "Pockets".Find out more about using mindfulness in everyday life through Julie's books, "SNAP: From Calm to Chaos", and "Life Falls Apart, But You Don't have To: Mindful Methods for Staying Calm in the Midst of Chaos".

In today's episode, we tackle the heavy topics of shame and guilt and how they impact our lives. Highlighting a unique perspective as a criminal defense attorney, this episode sheds light on how these feelings can affect our lives and identities. While guilt is connected to our actions, shame is a much deeper issue that attacks our self-worth. With insights from Dr. Brené Brown, I articulate the critical difference between guilt and shame: “Guilt is I did something bad; shame is I am bad.” This simple yet profound distinction reveals how shame can lead to a cycle of negative self-talk and emotional paralysis. There is Hope! I get to share practical strategies to break free from the shame spiral, including the power of vulnerability, empathy, and self-compassion. By sharing our stories and allowing ourselves to be vulnerable, we can start to dismantle the grip of shame. If you've ever felt overwhelmed by shame or guilt, this episode is a must-listen. It's a powerful reminder that healing is possible and that we all deserve compassion and understanding. If you would like some help with figuring out how to transform your life! I can help you create a vision for a life that you absolutely love living. Click here to arrange a session with me.

What holds a relationship together when life falls apart? Most of us picture the happiest moments when we think about our partner, but what happens when tragedy hits? In this intimate conversation, Dr. Laura Berman shares how she and her husband weathered some of life's hardest storms together.  From dating him while she was caring for her young son with cancer, to the unimaginable loss of their son Sammy during the pandemic, Laura takes us inside the moments that tested their love, and the choices that kept them connected. Days after the death of their first child together, Sam pulled Laura close and said, “Most couples don't get through tragedies like this, but we will.”  It's a reminder that the strength of a relationship isn't just built in joy, it's forged in the fire of what you survive together.

Life can be messy—and sometimes, it feels like the floor drops right out from under us. Bestselling author Tracie Miles calls these moments “lifequakes”—those unexpected, painful events that shake our world and leave us feeling lost, stuck, or wondering where God is in the chaos. In this encouraging episode, Barb sits down with Tracie to talk about her powerful book, God's Got You: Embracing New Beginnings with Courage and Confidence. Tracie opens up about the personal lifequake that turned her world upside down, and shares practical steps and biblical truths that helped her move from heartbreak to hope, and from fear to faith. If you—or someone you love—are facing a season of uncertainty, grief, or change, this conversation will remind you that new beginnings are possible, and that God hasn't left your side for a moment.   RESOURCES FROM THIS EPISODE Connect with Tracie on Instagram God's Got You: Embracing New Beginnings with Courage and Confidence Visit Tracie's Website   ABOUT OUR SPECIAL GUEST   Tracie Miles is the bestselling author of seven books, director of COMPEL Pro Writers Training at Proverbs 31 Ministries, and the founder of the Living Unbroken Divorce Recovery program.

Is there a friend you would like to visit...someone who is now gone? Someone you would like to have a conversation with? Julie Potiker guides you through this journey. She completes the meditation with her poem, "July Morning".This version ends with music allowing you to drift off into sleep.July morning, by Julie PotikerThere's a California wild rose bush in bright sun at the edge of the patio in Hailey, Idahowhere I sit in the shade of the house and sip my morning coffeeA silky smooth brown and beige 14 inch garter snake is sunning itself in the moistmulch under the leafy bush. His small beady eye is watching me watch himMorning coffee so different here than Southern CaliforniaThe air is teaming with flying creatures- tiny insects catching the light, and bees asbig as ping pong balls bopping in and out of the grass and shrubs.Only the Western Fly Catcher and Black capped Chickadee are tweeting,that's another big change -in Cali there's dozens of species of birds that create the morning symphony.Here, only a few layer their voices to the sound of the river flowing and the gentlebreeze whistling through the green coin leaves of the quacking Aspen trees.This is perfect, I think, different yet perfect, as a plump American Robin drops in tosay good morning, good morning, we do things bigger here in the mountains.July Morning, by Julie PotikerFind out more about using mindfulness in everyday life through Julie's books, "SNAP: From Calm to Chaos", and "Life Falls Apart, But You Don't have To: Mindful Methods for Staying Calm in the Midst of Chaos".

When life falls apart, the instinct is to fix everything around us. But what if the real transformation begins when we stop fixing and start listening? In this solo episode of The Nancy Levin Show, I explore what really happens beneath the surface when everything seems to fall apart — whether it's a divorce, job loss, burnout, or simply the feeling that something isn't right. Most of us are wired to chase external fixes, but these surface-level changes rarely lead to lasting relief. Instead, I invite you to turn inward and ask a radically different question: What is this crisis trying to show me about myself? From perfectionism and people-pleasing to over-responsibility and emotional avoidance, I unpack the deep-rooted patterns that often lead to breakdown. And I offer a new path — one rooted in slowing down, being with discomfort, and rebuilding from a place of presence and alignment. This isn't about bouncing back. It's about becoming who you were meant to be all along.   What we explore External fixes feel productive, but rarely heal the root cause. Crises are often invitations, not punishments. Patterns like people-pleasing and overachievement stem from early survival strategies — but they eventually lead us out of alignment.
 Healing requires slowing down, being with discomfort, and allowing clarity to emerge. Rebuilding your life starts by asking: Who am I becoming in this process? Feeling like life is falling apart? You don't have to figure it out alone. My coaching programs are designed to support your transformation from the inside out.

A message from Ruth 1:1-22 by Pastor Jared Burke at Bethany Bible Fellowship, Westminster, California

Julie Potiker leads you through this guided meditation focused on compassion. She completes the meditation with the poem, "In a Friend's Garden", by James Crews. In a Friend's Garden, by James Crews"I want to be here to seethe poppies open," my friend says,telling me why she never travelsanymore in the middle of summer.We each hold one of the heavy budswhose petals already ache to breakfree and spread, bursting red at the seams.The mulch is warm beneath our feet,and sunlight shimmers pink in thesifting leaves of the Japanese maple.I keep hearing her words - I wantto be here - and feel something newleaning toward the light inside me too,some seed of need just to be rootedright where I am for each small pleasure,every rippling wave of sorrow.She wraps an arm around me, and wego inside for tea. There is nothingto escape from, but our own desireto escape at all.-James CrewsFind out more about using mindfulness in everyday life through Julie's books, "SNAP: From Calm to Chaos", and "Life Falls Apart, But You Don't have To: Mindful Methods for Staying Calm in the Midst of Chaos".

In a Friend's Garden, by James Crews"I want to be here to seethe poppies open," my friend says,telling me why she never travelsanymore in the middle of summer.We each hold one of the heavy budswhose petals already ache to breakfree and spread, bursting red at the seams.The mulch is warm beneath our feet,and sunlight shimmers pink in thesifting leaves of the Japanese maple.I keep hearing her words - I wantto be here - and feel something newleaning toward the light inside me too,some seed of need just to be rootedright where I am for each small pleasure,every rippling wave of sorrow.She wraps an arm around me, and wego inside for tea. There is nothingto escape from, but our own desireto escape at all.-James CrewsFind out more about using mindfulness in everyday life through Julie's books, "SNAP: From Calm to Chaos", and "Life Falls Apart, But You Don't have To: Mindful Methods for Staying Calm in the Midst of Chaos".

Choosing Faith When Life Falls Apart - Jonah 1

For June, National Age Without Apology Month, author and mindfulness expert Julie Potiker shares how practicing mindful self-compassion can help people be less critical and more accepting of themselves as they get older. Read on for details and information on booking her on your program! Make Peace With Your Older Self: Be Mindful of Self-Talk Around Aging Practicing mindfulness can protect our health and improve our quality of life as we age, research finds. Practicing mindful self-compassion can also help us be more accepting and less critical of ourselves and our appearance as we age, Julie says. “We owe it to ourselves to be mindful of our self-talk around aging and to give ourselves the gift of making peace with the aging process,” Julie says. A Certified Mindful Self-Compassion Teacher from the University of California, San Diego, Julie is author of “SNAP! From Chaos to Calm and creator of SNAP, a simple four-step process anyone can use to calm anxiety, worry, and other troubling emotions. This includes negative self-talk — what Julie calls our “inner critic” — that tells us we are old and/or out of shape when we look in the mirror. Sound familiar? Try this: Soothing touch: Place your hands where you find it soothing, as a reminder that it's hard to feel this way; you are giving yourself love, and the relief of oxytocin and endorphins being released will help calm your nervous system. I place both hands on my heart, but feel free to find whatever point works for you. Name the emotion: Sometimes this is a tangled mess, so see whether you can tease it apart. It might be embarrassment, shame, an icky feeling of vulnerability, or it could be sadness. Name it to tame it — so it's out in the open and you can work with it. Act: Ask yourself these two questions: 1. What do I need to hear right now? Then tell it to yourself. 2. What do I need to do right now to shift my mood? Then choose what you can reasonably do in that moment. This could be positive self-talk, loving kindness phrases, or gratitude practice — anything to make a shift so that you feel the truth that you are enough just as you are in this moment. Praise: By being loving to yourself, as you would be to a dear friend, you are bathing yourself in compassion. You deserve it. “What you think changes your brain,” Julie says. “If you talk to yourself with gentleness and compassion and you take a couple of moments to savor the good feelings your compassionate voice brings up in you, that positive mental state rewires your brain. It is a simple practice with profound results.” If you would like to speak with Julie, contact me: Klaudia Simon Media Booker | WasabiPublicity.com 828.749.3200 east coast office | 828.817.4034 mobile klaudia@wasabipublicity.com Online Media Kit: JuliePotiker.OnlinePressKit247.com Public Site: MindfulMethodsForLife.com About Julie Potiker: Julie Potiker is a mindfulness expert with extensive certifications and teacher training in a variety of tools and methods, including Mindful Self-Compassion.

Breathe in as you relax into this calming meditation led by Julie Potiker. She completes the meditation with her poem, "Whispers of a Fifth Force".Whispers of a Fifth Force, by Julie PotikerIn Idaho's early morning hush,I settle into the Adirondack chair by the fire pit,fast running river less than a pickle-ball court away,my slippered feet rest on the cool back of a boulder,smooth and steady beneath me.Above, the Aspen leaves shimmer—green coins rustling their soft applausein the mountain breeze.A plump American Robin bounces a spindly branch nearby. Gravity holds me gently,as it always has,the known forces humming their familiar song:electromagnetism weaving light across the sky,strong and weak nuclear threads binding the world within. Resting my head on the chair, I contemplate Far beyond this stillness,Bennu drifts—its ancient body charting paths we can measure,paths we can question.Physicists tilt their heads,listening for the quiet slip of anomaly,searching for a fifth force hidden in the mathematics. So far, Bennu holds its silence.But Apophis approaches—another messenger tumbling closer,another chance to findwhat might have always been there. Since the 1980s they have wondered—Could it be anti-gravity?Could it be quintessence?A hidden thread explaining dark energy, or light dark mattera secret folded into the fabricof everything we thought we knew. I breathe in the pine-sweet air,feel the steady earth beneath my feet,The cool breeze gently touches my face—and in the rustling leaves above,the universe whispers:there may yet be more.Find out more about using mindfulness in everyday life through Julie's books, "SNAP: From Calm to Chaos", and "Life Falls Apart, But You Don't have To: Mindful Methods for Staying Calm in the Midst of Chaos".

Calvin shares about losing his entire family within a year, the impact of church hurt, and the slow process of healing through counseling, community, and worship.They talk about what it means to live honestly with pain, how worship can become a place of quiet restoration, and how creativity plays a role in making space for others to heal.Calvin is the founder of Aware Worship, The Choir Room, and Cmon Creative, and has worked behind the scenes with artists like CeCe Winans, Stevie Wonder, and Tori Kelly. His journey includes both loss and grace—and offers something meaningful for anyone learning to breathe again after heartache.Podcast Links:Pursuing FaithCalvin Nowell on Youtube

When Life Falls Apart (Psalm 46) | Pastor Philip De Courcy

Ever carry too many grocery bags at once thinking you can handle it, and then . . . aah! . . . one bag breaks, another slips out of your hands, and everything’s on the ground? In life, we try to hold it all together, but sometimes it’s just too much. Maybe you’re facing a crisis, a tragedy, or just feeling overwhelmed. God is there, ready to help you pick up the pieces. Today on A NEW BEGINNING, Pastor Greg Laurie finds encouragement from a familiar Old Testament story. Listen on harvest.org --- Learn more and subscribe to Harvest updates at harvest.org A New Beginning is the daily half-hour program hosted by Greg Laurie, pastor of Harvest Christian Fellowship in Southern California. For over 30 years, Pastor Greg and Harvest Ministries have endeavored to know God and make Him known through media and large-scale evangelism.

This episode right here is going to fire you up, crack your heart wide open, and give you the fuel you need to keep chasing your God-sized dreams. Today, I'm joined by a brother, a warrior, a Kingdom-driven entrepreneur, and a man who is absolutely living a life worth telling a story about—Justin Prince. Justin has built five (5) multimillion-dollar businesses. He's spoken all over the world. He's the co-founder of Make Wellness, a brand that's disrupting the health and supplement game. And he's also the author of Be the One—a book that will punch you in the soul in all the best ways. What you'll hear in today's episode goes way beyond business. It's about resilience, betrayal, faith, purpose, and trusting God even when you're walking through the fire. What You'll Get in This Power-Packed Episode: The painful betrayal that ended a successful 11-year run at the top—and how Justin used it as fuel to create something even greater. Why “trust the redirect” became his guiding phrase during his darkest season. How he went from flipping pizzas and selling Bible videos in a mall kiosk to building global companies. The power of identity-based success: why you'll never outperform how you see yourself. What it really means to “Be the One” and create generational change. Why intentional living is the secret to fulfillment (and how a single moment with John Maxwell changed his life). The launch story behind Make Wellness, and how their bioactive peptides are revolutionizing health. How to win both races in life: success and fulfillment. The truth about money—and how it either magnifies or exposes who you really are.   Quotes to Remember: “Success without fulfillment is the ultimate failure.” “You are the ONE.
