Send me a text!Finding alignment and the ability to return to yourself again and again supports resiliency as you navigate the waves of life. Alignment isn't a fixed state we achieve once and then maintain effortlessly—it's something we come back to again and again. It's especially important during times of transition, uncertainty, or change. When things feel off, it's not a sign of failure, but often a signal to pause and check in. This practice of reconnecting to yourself helps you make choices that reflect who you are and what you value. Whether you're facing a major life shift or engaging the small, repeated decisions of daily life, cultivating a relationship with yourself through the practice of alignment helps make clarity feel more accessible and easeful. In this episode of Mindset Unlimited, I invited Kim Romain to join me in a conversation about cultivating a practice that supports finding alignment and the ability to return to yourself again and again. Some of what we talk about in this episode includes:How to tell the difference between belonging and fitting inWhat alignment really feels like—and why it's not about perfectionUnderstanding supportive resilience (as opposed to the societally weaponized)Reclaiming your power to choose, even in hard moments Through this episode, you'll learn how to work with alignment as a living practice—one that supports clarity, resilience, and choice through both major transitions and everyday moments. LINKS TO REFERENCES MADE IN THIS EPISODE:Empowered & Embodied Show episodes referenced:Finding Your Center in the Midst of ChaosPersonal Agency and Systemic Awareness Mindset Unlimited episodes referenced:Why Work Life Balance is a MythHow to Create Belonging with Amena Chaudhry CONNECT WITH KIMWebsiteLinkedInSubstackYouTube CONNECT WITH VALERIE:Ask Valerie (anonymous form)Sign up for Valerie's newsletterApply to be coached on the podcastSchedule an exploration callListen to the Unlimited Playlist This podcast was produced by Valerie Friedlander CoachingProud member of the Feminist Podcasters CollectiveSupport the show

What if midlife wasn't a crisis—but a chrysalis? In this powerful and heartfelt conversation, D'Arcy sits down with spiritual leader and transformational guide Dr. Devaa Haley Mitchell to reframe the way we view this pivotal life stage. Together, they unpack the idea of midlife as a sacred period of unraveling, reclaiming, and radiating—a time of deep transformation that prepares us to emerge more fully expressed, sovereign, and whole. From the rise of the Queen archetype to the cultural stories we've inherited about aging, this episode explores how truth-telling, community, and feminine leadership can help us navigate the unknown with courage and grace. If you're feeling the stirrings of change or longing to embrace your next chapter with intention, this one's for you.   Key Takeaways: Midlife is not a breakdown—it's a metamorphosis. The Queen archetype offers a fresh and empowering lens on aging and leadership. Cultural narratives about aging shape how we see ourselves—and we can rewrite them. Truth-telling is a liberating force for healing and connection. Feminine leadership is intuitive, inclusive, and deeply needed in today's world. The chrysalis journey unfolds in stages: unraveling, reclaiming, and radiating. Community support is essential during times of transition. Embracing sensuality and creativity is key to holistic well-being. Awareness of societal conditioning can help us reclaim our power and purpose. The unknown isn't something to fear—it's an invitation to grow. Whether you're in your thirties, forties, fifties, or beyond, this conversation is a gentle reminder: the unraveling is part of the becoming. And you're not alone.   Meet Devaa: For Dr. Devaa Haley Mitchell, transformation isn't just a concept—it's a way of life. She's dedicated to helping people reconnect with their deepest selves, unlock their leadership gifts, and step into their full potential. As the Co-Founder of The Shift Network, a multiple 7-figure educational platform, Devaa has helped bring life-changing programs to over 3.2 million students worldwide. She's also built an online summit that served 130,000 women across 160 countries—all while growing her company from the ground up. Through her private practice, Devaa supports her clients with Soul and Strategy Coaching to work on both the “inner” work of feminine leadership as well as the “outer” work of visionary strategy and implementation. She also leads women through a comprehensive Midlife Chrysalis process to gracefully navigate the many changes that happen in midlife. Finally, Devaa offers psychedelic integration as well as microdose coaching to enhance creativity and focus, while mitigating the impacts of anxiety and depression. Devaa earned both her BA and MA from Stanford University. She received her Doctorate in Ministry from Wisdom University (now known as Ubiquity University) and is also an ordained interfaith minister. She was awarded a Fulbright Scholarship for her ecological anthropology work with indigenous groups in the Brazilian Amazon. Devaa also completed her Psilocybin Guides certification through Bodhi Academy in Oregon. Earlier in her career, Devaa was a Management Consultant at the Boston Consulting Group where she consulted with Fortune 500 Companies. She later worked as the founding Executive Director of the Full Circle Fund, a thriving venture philanthropy group, followed by a senior Director role at the Institute of Noetic Sciences. She is also a member of the prestigious Evolutionary Leaders group. In her spare time, Devaa is a musician, and her songs fuse East and West with danceable grooves. Her most recent album, Rebirth, reached #1 on Amazon in the New Age Category.   Connect with Devaa: Devaa's course – Awaken Your Archetypal Feminine Codes: A Guided Initiation Into Your Sacred Power and Leadership – will go live on June 6, 2025.

Episode SummaryIn this episode, Bobby Bosler recounts the recent cross-country move that marked a major transition into the pastorate—and the spiritual insights it sparked. With everything his family owned packed into a single trailer, he reflects on Jesus' words in Matthew 6 about treasure, focus, and true devotion. This convicting challenge invites listeners to evaluate what they're living for and whether their heart is fully invested in heaven.Topics DiscussedTransition to pastoral ministry in Fairmont, WVThe tangible feeling of having all possessions in one trailerMatthew 6:19–24 and the call to lay up treasure in heavenWhat a “single eye” means—and why it mattersIdentifying the pull of materialism and earthly desiresA warning against divided loyalties and serving two mastersThe call to total surrender and singular devotion to ChristKey TakeawaysWhere your treasure is, your heart will inevitably follow—so store it where it's safe.What you focus on shapes every area of your life.A divided focus will always lead to spiritual darkness and dissatisfaction.We can't serve both God and material desires; we must choose our master.A single-minded life requires surrender—and the sustaining grace of God.

What if you had a front-row seat to the world's stage in the Oval Office?  Sounds like a cool gig.  But what if it required giving up much of your personal life? I welcome back former AP White House correspondent Ben Feller for a candid conversation about the evolving landscape of the media, the importance of journalistic integrity, and the personal journey of navigating high-stakes careers. Ben shares stories from his front-row seat covering Republican and Democratic presidents and discusses why real-time press access to pivotal moments—like the Oval Office meetings with world leaders—matters for democracy and public accountability.  We break down the history and unique mission of the Associated Press, unpack how information is shared and sourced across news organizations, and reflect on the increasingly complex challenge of finding and trusting unbiased news today. Just as important, we dive deeper into broader themes of personal growth, identity, and the emotional transition from a demanding career into new chapters of life—touching on the difficulty of balancing ambition, self-reflection, and gratitude. With plenty of wisdom for professionals, families, and anyone curious about the media's role in society, this episode is a must-listen for anyone trying to sort facts from noise and find emotional balance in a fast-paced world.

Send me a text!“Where do we go from here” is a common question when we encounter a crossroads in life. Whether a transition is big or small, each point is an invitation learn more about yourself and choose what is aligned for the person you are becoming. This episode engages two types of transition reflection. First the riptide transition point, when you realize you've unconsciously slid back into ways of being you thought you'd moved away from. Second the seismic transition point, when something outside your control cracks your stability. Though vastly different levels of outward impact, they both impact who you understand yourself to be in relation to your life. Radical self-compassion and connecting with trusted others for support allow the room to intentionally answer where do we go from here.In this episode of Mindset Unlimited, I explore ways we answer the question “Where do we go from here” through reflections on this podcast and speaking to federal workers facing layoffs.Some of what I explore in this episode includes:Why I started this podcastMy relationship to podcasting & perfectionismMy background in SociologyA letter to Federal Workers LINKS TO REFERENCES MADE IN THIS EPISODE:Ask Valerie (anonymous form)Assigned Reading by Becky Mollenkamp CONNECT WITH VALERIE:Sign up for Valerie's newsletterApply to be coached on the podcastSchedule an exploration call This podcast was produced by Valerie Friedlander CoachingProud member of the Feminist Podcasters CollectiveSupport the show

In this episode, we conclude our conversation on life transitions with Michelle's husband, Chris Benzinger. We focus on the second and third steps in walking through transitions: releasing with trust and redeeming with hope. We talk about God wanting to redeem our past, the need to let go of the ways we've failed, and how God wants to do something new in the future. We also reflect on the importance of ceremony to conclude a season, the four responses to a loss, and why we should share our hopes for the future with God.   Heather's One Thing - Return to the Heart: The Biblical Spirituality of St. Augustine's Confessions by Dr. Shane Owens Sister Miriam's One Thing -  Mediterranean Chicken Bowls Michelle's One Thing - Belovedness: Overcoming Your Inner Critic - A Lyrical Devotional by Sarah Kroger Chris' One Thing - Running a 5k with his daughter Lilly    Journal Questions: What was good about the previous season of my life? Am I grieving or still carrying hurts?  What is God specifically asking me to release from this past season?  In this next season of my life, what is one thing God is making new? What is one hope I have for this next season of my life?   Creative Prompt: Take a bookmark and decorate it with your hopes for the next season and place it in your Bible. It will serve as a reminder in the next chapter of your life.   Discussion Questions: Reflect back upon the past few years and choose one big or small transition in your life.  What is one thing you are grateful for in the past season of your life? What is God calling you to release with trust from that past season? As you look to this current season, what action can you take to ceremonialize the end of an old season and create the foundation for a new season? Are you able to name what you desire? Why or why not? How are you responding to loss in your current season of life? What is something new God is doing in the current season of your life?   Quote to Ponder: “Remember not the events of the past, the things of long ago consider not. See I am doing something new. Now it springs forth, do you not perceive it?” (Isaiah 43:18)   Scripture for Lectio: “But now thus says the Lord, who created you, O Jacob, and formed you O Israel: Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name; and you are mine.” (Isaiah 43:1)   Sponsor - Karol Coffee Co.: This week's sponsor is more than just a coffee company. Karol Coffee Co. was inspired by the life and work of one of the most beloved saints of the modern era: Karol Wojtyła, better known to the world as Pope St. John Paul II. His life was a testimony to courage, joy, and cultivating beauty that draws souls into union with Jesus and one other. From his days as a young priest in Nazi-occupied Poland to his years leading the global Church, St. John Paul II consistently called people to embrace truth, goodness, and beauty in every aspect of their lives. Karol Coffee Co. seeks to carry on that mission in a small but meaningful way — by bringing community, love, and joy into the heart of our everyday routines through coffee. Founded by Nate and Megan Whipple, a faithful Catholic couple rooted in mission, Karol Coffee Co. began humbly in 2022 as a simple garage-based roasting operation in Minneapolis, Minnesota. What started as a passion project quickly became something greater, thanks to the encouragement and support of fellow Catholics and coffee enthusiasts. In just a short time, their venture has grown into a thriving small business that now serves customers all over the country. In an age when many of our purchases inadvertently support massive corporations with values often at odds with our own, supporting small, Catholic-owned businesses has never been more important. Karol Coffee Co. offers an alternative: ethically-sourced, traceable coffees roasted with care and intention. Each batch is crafted not only for flavor but with the desire to honor the dignity of those who cultivate the beans and to support communities around the world. Their rotating coffee offerings include a range of carefully selected beans from notable coffee-growing regions with flavor profiles to suit a variety of preferences. Karol Coffee Co. makes it easier to keep your kitchen stocked with beans through bi-weekly or monthly subscription options.

Welcome back to the Shift with Elena Agar Podcast! In this episode, Elena reconnects with Millree Williams, a certified career and retirement coach, for an eye-opening conversation about what it really means to transition into retirement in today's rapidly changing world. As more baby boomers cross the traditional retirement age—and as economic shifts and workplace uncertainties push some to consider retiring earlier than planned—Millree shares his insights into the unique challenges facing professionals over 40 and beyond. But this isn't about financial planning. Instead, Elena and Millree dive into the emotional and psychological aspects of retirement, why purpose and identity matter so much in this new chapter, and how individuals – no matter their age - should always be considering the many chapters of their lives. How organizations can better support employees as they prepare for life after work. And, finally, why this support benefits the organization's bottom line. Whether you're years from considering retirement or it's coming up fast, this episode is sure to inspire you to think intentionally about your next chapter and begin equipping you with ideas for navigating the path ahead. Tune in for a candid, uplifting look at how to design a fulfilling retirement—and why it's never too early to start planning for what comes next.Time stamps:00:00 Navigating Career Transition After 4003:59 Retirement Coaching Challenges07:45 Life Transitions as Novel Chapters10:09 Shifting Job Market and Retirement Challenges14:50 "Plan for Career Change Early"18:47 Employee Well-being and Succession Benefits20:05 Retirement: Employees as Brand Ambassadors23:47 "Supporting Aging Workforce Talent"28:58 Prioritizing Time with Aging Parents30:45 Redefining Retirement for Non-Professionals35:03 "Gratitude for Discussing Key Topic"Connect with Millree on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/millreewilliams/Website: https://www.willekop.com/Email: millree@willekop.comFollow Elena: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/elenaagaragimova/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/elenaagaragimova/Website: https://elenaagar.com/Listen on:Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/shift-with-elena-agar/id1530850914Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5UKh6dWcuQwJlmAOqD8wij

Episode #126. In this episode, I'm joined by Emma Grey—bestselling author of The Last Love Note and Pictures of You. Emma shares her remarkable journey from dreaming of writing as a teenager in Australia to finally becoming a full-time novelist in her 50s. She opens up about how writing became a healing path through personal grief after losing her husband, and how her books, now international bestsellers, are helping others navigate their own stories of love and loss. We talk about embracing rejection as part of the process, finding courage to keep showing up for your creative dreams, and why it's never too late to start—or start again. This is such a powerful conversation about persistence, healing, and letting creativity unfold on its own timeline. If you've been doubting your dreams, I hope Emma's story reminds you—it's never too late. Connect with Emma Grey: Website Instagram

In this episode, Chris Benzinger joins us to discuss navigating big and small life transitions. We have all probably found ourselves on the other end of a transition feeling unfulfilled or confused. Chris takes us through a reflection of Joshua leading the Israelites across the Jordan and relates it to change in our lives. We talk about why it can be difficult to move on from blessings of the past and how remembering with gratitude is the first step in walking through transitions. We also discuss the practice of taking memorial stones with us to remember the Lord's blessings, giving thanks in all circumstances, and growing a lens of gratitude. Join us for part two next week!   Heather's One Thing - Festival of Praise at Franciscan University Sister Miriam's One Thing - Sacramental transitions Michelle's One Thing - Chris! Chris' One Thing - Michelle :)   Journal Questions: What transitions am I currently going through? How have I experienced transition in the past? What do I need to remember with gratitude? What truth is the Lord speaking to me in my current circumstances?   Discussion Questions: What are you most grateful for in your recent transitions in life? What did the Father show you about His character in the previous season? What are the greatest fears you experience when facing transition? How will you allow space in your heart as you experience changes in your season of life? How can you embrace both the grief of what has ended and the joy of the new adventure in your transition?   Quote to Ponder: “And the Lord said to Joshua, “Command the priests who bear the ark of the testimony to come up out of the Jordan.” Joshua therefore commanded the priests, “Come up out of the Jordan.” And when the priests bearing the ark of the covenant of the Lord came up from the midst of the Jordan, and the soles of the priests' feet were lifted up on dry ground, the waters of the Jordan returned to their place and overflowed all its banks, as before.” (Josua 4:15-18)   Scripture for Lectio: “Rejoice always, pray continually, and give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus.” (1 Thessalonians 5:16-18)   Sponsor - Our Holy Home: We're so grateful to partner this season with Our Holy Home — a Catholic brand that's on a mission to fill homes with beauty, subtle reminders of faith, and a deep sense of peace in the everyday. Their best-selling dish towels are a simple but powerful way to build up the domestic church — and honestly, we can't get enough of them. These aren't your average towels. Each design is thoughtfully created to reflect the joy and truth of the Catholic faith — with soft colors, minimalist artwork, and meaningful words that uplift your spirit even during the most mundane moments in the kitchen. Whether you're drying dishes, wiping hands, or hanging them from the oven for a decorative touch, these towels serve as gentle reminders that holiness is found in the home — and often, in the mess. Here's why we love them: Subtle, beautiful Catholic designs that blend seamlessly into your home decor Functional and high-quality — made to be used, not just admired Faith-filled reminders that inspire prayer, peace, and purpose in your daily tasks Perfect for gifting — especially for housewarmings, weddings, baby showers, or that mama friend who's in the trenches Whether you're living liturgically or just trying to bring a little more intention into your everyday routines, these towels are a small way to make a big impact.

Welcome back to another episode of The Becoming Podcast, all! I'm delighted to bring you my conversation with writer Cindy DiTiberio today.  I've been following Cindy's work on her Substack, The Mother Lode, for quite a while now, and I know you're going to love our conversation.  So many of my clients and the women I connect with are experiencing – or thinking about – the end of their intimate partnerships, and I think Cindy's wisdom will really resonate with you.  This episode is especially for you if it's your transition into motherhood that has instigated a reckoning in your relationship.   Here's some of what we talked about in our conversation: > How MDMA therapy helped Cindy know that she needed to leave her marriage. > What so often happens to relationships when a couple has a baby.  We talk about everything from sex to paternity leave to caregiving and the mental load. > The feeling of being trapped by oppressive systems of capitalism and patriarchy and how heterosexual couples often end up in traditional, gendered roles without ever intending to.  We talk about the role of internalized patriarchy, the devaluing of women's time, and how both Cindy and I (and so many other mothers we know) ended up squeezing our full time work into part time hours so we could also be primary caregivers. > How personal growth journeys – whether that's into deeper spiritual paths or into a feminist awakening – can cause couples to drift apart. > How the pandemic awakened our culture to the many ways modern hetero partnership has failed women and mothers.   I think you're going to love my conversation with Cindy.  I think it's so relatable for so many of us who are mothering and perhaps grappling with how to navigate our relationships, whether they're ending or evolving.

What invisible forces keep us living lives that are too small for our potential? In this compelling episode of Life in Transition, "Recognizing Your Worth When Others Don't: Leroy Roberts' Life in Transition," Leroy shares his remarkable journey from a poor Jamaican village to international impact. "There is a spirit of containment that keeps a lot of people trapped," he explains, recounting how at just 13 years old, he made the decision to pursue education despite ridicule and resistance. How do we break free from limiting beliefs passed down through generations? What happens when we carefully choose who influences us? Through stories of determination, setback, and reinvention, Leroy offers profound insights about recognizing our inherent worth. "Wherever you are now, you were led there by your consent," he challenges listeners. "Who are you allowing to lead you, and why?" This episode will inspire anyone facing transition to take ownership of their circumstances and embrace their true value.Leroy Roberts grew up in a small village called Grey Ground in rural Jamaica, where he became the first person in his family to attend high school—a decision that required immense courage and defiance of cultural expectations. His journey took him from law enforcement in Jamaica to military service with the British Army's Royal Engineers, where he traveled the world before a work-related injury ended his military career. Now based in the UK, Leroy helps others break free from what he calls "the spirit of containment" to recognize their inherent worth and lead more purposeful lives. About The Show: The Life in Transition, hosted by Art Blanchford focuses on making the most of the changes we're given every week. Art has been through hundreds of transitions in his life. Many have been difficult, but all have led to a depth and richness he could never have imagined. On the podcast Art explores how to create more love and joy in life, no matter what transitions we go through. Art is married to his lifelong partner, a proud father of three and a long-time adventurer and global business executive. He is the founder and leader of the Midlife Transition Mastery Community.
