But they also come with pitfalls: idolatry, misplaced identity, and unhealthy priorities.In this episode, we dig into:The positives of sports: discipline, teamwork, fitness, and communityThe darker side: idolatry, misplaced identity, and overemphasis in family lifeHow to engage with sports as followers of Christ—keeping them in their proper place as a gift from GodPractical wisdom for parents raising kids in competitive sportsWhy balance, stewardship, and perspective matter more than championshipsWe also share personal stories, biblical insights, and even a few lighthearted moments (yes, golf and fishing made the list).Whether you're a die-hard fan or a casual observer, this conversation invites you to think deeply about how sports shape our culture and our faith.

You're crushing your to-do list, checking off task after task, but by 3 PM you feel like you've been hit by a truck. Sound familiar? That was my guest Heather Chauvin's reality until a stage 4 cancer diagnosis in 2013 changed everything.As a mom of three boys and a new business owner, Heather was in the thick of juggling it all. She was getting things done, hitting deadlines, and managing everything on her plate.

Her cancer diagnosis became an unexpected teacher, showing her that there's a whole other layer to how we manage our time and energy.Today, Heather shares what she discovered about energetic time management and why asking "How do I want to feel?" might be more powerful than asking "What do I need to do?" In This Episode, We Cover:Why energy management works alongside your planning systemHow to spot invisible energy drains in your daily lifeWhy women automatically shrink themselves (and how to stop)The simple question that changes how you make decisionsWhat alignment actually feels like in real lifeHow to stop doing emotional work for other peopleConnect with Heather:Website: heatherchauvin.comEmotionally Uncomfortable Podcast: heatherchauvin.com/podcastInstagram: instagram.com/heatherchauvin_JOIN THE PLAN-A-PALOOZA ANNUAL PLANNING WORKSHOP The #1 Planning Event for Women, That Works for REAL Life!Live October 15 & 16, 2025Business Owners can add Oct 17Create Your Roadmap for 2026...

Title: Come And WorshipSpeaker: Luke BrandonScripture: Psalm 95Episode Overview:In Psalm 95, we find both an invitation and a warning—an invitation to enter God's presence with joy, reverence, and wholehearted worship, and a sobering reminder to guard our hearts from disbelief. Using vivid stories—from a forgotten Qing dynasty vase to modern sports icons searching for meaning—this message unpacks what it means to worship God with our will, mind, and heart. We discover that everything we do communicates who we worship, and that true worship flows from trust in the Good Shepherd who knows us by name.Key Highlights:• What Worship Really Is: Ascribing ultimate value to God with every part of our being.• Worship with the Whole Person: Engaging mind, heart, and will to magnify God's character and works.• The Privilege of “Come”: God invites us back into His presence—what sin had once driven us from.• Examples from Life: How misplaced worship leaves us empty, from Super Bowl rings to earthly treasures.• The Warning of Psalm 95: How unbelief kept an entire generation from God's rest, and how we can avoid the same.• A Word of Hope: “Today” is God's offer of life, rest, and salvation for those who hear His voice.Call to Action:Today, let your life tell the truth about who sits on the throne of your heart. Worship is not just a Sunday activity—it's every thought you think, word you speak, and choice you make. Take time this week to intentionally ascribe worth to God with your actions: speak words that honor Him, serve someone in need, and replace grumbling with gratitude. Let your everyday life become an act of worship that points others to the King who is above all gods.Redeemer Church211 Northshore Dr. Bellingham, WA 98226www.redeemernw.org

In today's episode, we tackle one of the most misunderstood truths in health and fitness: just because something is simple, doesn't mean it's easy. From the basics of nutrition and movement to the mental game of consistency, we unpack why people struggle with doing the boring basic things and keep abandoning their goals for the smallest inconvenience - and what to do about it.We also dive into the power of saying no, the guilt that shows up when you start prioritizing yourself, and how training for life (not just a finish line) demands a different kind of mindset. If you've ever said “I'll get back on track Monday,” or felt like a goal wasn't “serious enough” to commit to, this one's for you.Key Takeaways:Why nutrition and fitness are simple in theory but hard in real lifeHow people sabotage their own progress by expecting perfectionThe real reason you keep saying yes when you should be saying noWhy you don't need a race or event to train like your goals matterHow to stay consistent even when life gets messy (because it always will)Don't forget to rate, review, and share if this hit home.Thank you Cured Nutrition for sponsoring our podcast!We LOVE Cured products and know you will, too!

In the self-help space, it's easy to assume someone else has it all together. The truth is, nobody does. While I have some answers—and I certainly can provide help to stop people-pleasing—I'm still learning, too. Today, I'm sharing recent changes and insights from my own life to offer an honest look at the messy, yet beautiful, journey of healing—and to remind you that joy, grief, and desire can all coexist. Here's what I cover:How religious scriptures shaped my beliefs about worthiness–and how I've grown into a deeper sense of connectionWhy rest, joy, pleasure, and loving your f*cking life are powerful acts of resistanceWhy I stepped away from social media and how it has allowed me to show up more fully in my lifeHow retreating to my love of fiction provided me with a soul-deep reliefHow I have become more fully present in my body and my power through pleasureHow I learned that “Am I enough?” was never the right question to askFind Sara here:https://sarafisk.coachhttps://pages.sarafisk.coach/difficultconversationshttps://www.instagram.com/sarafiskcoach/https://www.facebook.com/SaraFiskCoaching/https://www.tiktok.com/@sarafiskcoachhttps://www.youtube.com/@sarafiskcoaching1333What happens inside the free Stop People Pleasing Facebook Community?

If you would like us to work with your team book a 30 min chat HERE.Depression is something that can linger in the background, unrecognised for a very long time, so it's no wonder that many people live undiagnosed for years before finally seeking help. That was very much the case for Ann Marie Grace, who, after years of building businesses ranging from a fast food franchise to marketing consultancies, and a boxed wine venture, found herself at a turning point when she realised she had depression. That of course was only the beginning of the journey as she chose to step away from the pressure of doing what she “should” and returned to what her heart had always known: to create, to guide, and to live wholeheartedly. Today, Ann Marie is an artist, transformation coach, and podcast host of Breaking Free, Coming Back to Me. In this episode she shares:Why she didn't pursue art and the negative patterns that influenced herThe career and depression she moved into after giving up artHer experience seeing her friend calm herself using her breathWhat her depression experience was like over the 16 yearsHow medication helped but didn't fix things completelyHow she started to improve and change her experience of livingThe first steps she took to help herself and how sky diving was involvedThe differences she noticed after breath workWhat 'spirit' means for herHow art re-entered her lifeHow understanding the Human Design & Gene Keys frameworks has helped give Ann Marie permission to live the path her soul is calling her towards and why she now uses it with all of her clients Key Quotes“Underneath it all, the current was, if I were to stop existing tomorrow, that would be ok, and that was just how I generally felt.”More about Ann MarieYou can check out her website, Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn.You can get involved with the podcast onlineOn facebook in our community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/challengesthatchangeusOr on Instagram: @challengesthatchangeusIf you want to contact the podcast, email us here: support@challengesthatchangeus.com Or check out our website: www.Challengesthatchangeus.comIf you want to find out more about what Ali does, check out her business via the website: http://www.trialtitudeperformance.com.au Hosted on Acast.

As women, we receive so much messaging about how big our lives are allowed to be. Whether it's patriarchy, childhood conditioning, or the communities we're part of, many women learn that being convenient, optimistic, and helpful makes them lovable. Even though it isn't true, that influence often keeps us from living our lives in a bigger way. In this episode, we explore the signs that your life is too small for you and how you can start to live a life that's as honest and expressive as you want. Here's what I cover: How to recognize when your life has become too small by how your body feelsThe most common signs that you're ready to take your life to the next levelWhy your dreams feeling impossible or selfish is a signal that you're ready for changeHow resentment and irritation can show up under the surface when you feel stuck in a small lifeHow emotional suppression can lead to real issues that affect women's healthAn example of how my life changed when I learned how to say what needed to be saidSign up for the FREE WORKSHOP on July 22nd: https://pages.sarafisk.coach/say-it-jul-2025 Find Sara here:https://sarafisk.coachhttps://pages.sarafisk.coach/difficultconversationshttps://www.instagram.com/sarafiskcoach/https://www.facebook.com/SaraFiskCoaching/https://www.tiktok.com/@sarafiskcoachhttps://www.youtube.com/@sarafiskcoaching1333What happens inside the free Stop People Pleasing Facebook Community?

Topics Covered: Midlife crisis, running out of time in midlife, living your best life now, midlife women coaching, Top 100 listEpisode Summary:You know that insatiable urgency you feel in your 40s and 50s — the sense that you're running out of time and need to do all the things before it's “too late”?
