What do you do when the pain doesn't go away? In this episode of inContext, Michael Easley sits down with author Glenna Marshall to discuss living faithfully through chronic illness, unanswered prayers, and years of physical suffering. Rather than asking, "Why me?" Glenna explains why Scripture invites us to ask, "How do I trust God today?" Together they explore biblical lament, the role of gratitude, present-tense grace, and the hope believers have because of Christ. Whether you're battling chronic pain, caring for someone who is, or simply walking through a difficult season, this conversation offers biblical encouragement without offering shallow answers. Chapters 00:00 Why "How?" matters more than "Why?" 02:12 Glenna Marshall's diagnosis and journey with chronic illness 09:10 Living with chronic pain every day 13:00 What James teaches about trials and perseverance 16:20 Learning to pray through suffering 20:18 When you don't have words to pray 23:10 Present-tense grace for today's struggles 25:30 Is suffering caused by personal sin? 31:05 Gratitude as the pathway to joy 35:50 Joy vs. happiness 40:18 Choosing joy in suffering 43:30 Hope for those who are losing hope 46:10 Why suffering has an expiration date Key Topics Covered Chronic pain and the Christian life Praying through suffering Biblical lament Joy versus happiness Gratitude and contentment Present-tense grace James 1 and perseverance Romans 8 and freedom from condemnation The hope of resurrection Encouragement for caregivers and those who suffer Links Mentioned: Praying in Pain by Glenna Marshall Memorizing Scripture by Glenna Marshall  Glenna's website Watch the highlights and full version of this interview on our Youtube channel.

Welcome to MANN WEEK!!!Based upon the hit '80's TV show of the same name co-created by Oscar-nominated writer/director Michael Mann (Heat, Collateral, The Last of the Mohicans), Mann brought this adaptation to the big screen twenty years ago this summer.  The story once again focuses on two partnering Miami police detectives named Sonny Crockett (Oscar-nominated Colin Farrell) and Ricardo Tubbs (Oscar-winner Jamie Foxx) - they are going undercover to take down a Latin American drug cartel and the similarities to the original show pretty much end there.  Among their targets are Jose Yero (John Ortiz), Montoya (Luis Tosar), and Isabella (Gong Li) as they partner with the FBI to stop a major shipment of drugs.  However Sonny then starts a romance with Isabella....and complications ensue!  Considered a disappointment by both audiences and critics upon initial release, this has since gone on to develop a cult following....especially resulting from a better reception to the eventual "Director's Cut" which was released on DVD.  THAT version will be reviewed in this episode.....Host & Editor: Geoff GershonProducer: Marlene Gershon Send us Fan MailSupport the showhttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/

Send us Fan MailWelcome to this episode of the Sexier than a Squirrel podcast, the podcast that brings you real-life dog training results, and sometimes human training ones too!This week, Lauren is joined by the brilliant Linda Hughes to introduce one very small dog with a very big personality. Meet Bobble – a two-kilo silver toy poodle who lives with four Border Collies, has absolutely no concept of being tiny, and somehow ended up with his own treehouse on Linda's desk.Living with a toy dog comes with its own unique set of considerations, and in this episode we explore what really changes when your newest family member is small enough to disappear beneath a Border Collie. From carefully managing play with bigger dogs and adding sofa steps to protect tiny joints, to resisting the temptation to accidentally create a dog who expects breakfast to arrive on a spoon, Lauren and Linda share the funny moments and practical lessons that have come with life alongside Bobble.The conversation also turns to training and day-to-day life. You'll hear why small dogs still need great recall, how easy it is to overlook the "easy" dog while managing everyone else, and why that could quickly lead to a tiny dog who thinks the rules don't apply. Linda also shares how she approaches grooming, clipping and coat care, including building positive associations with a dedicated grooming station so handling becomes just another part of life rather than something to dread.We also chat about toy breed fitness, supporting dogs with patella concerns, choosing toys that suit tiny mouths, and teaching a simple cue that helps manage breed-typical barking. And of course, no episode about Bobble would be complete without the story of how a firm "no dogs on the bed" rule quietly disappeared the moment one impossibly cute toy poodle curled up between the pillows.Whether you already share your home with a toy dog, you're thinking about welcoming one into your family, or you simply love hearing about the realities of life with dogs of every shape and size, this episode is guaranteed to leave you smiling.

Guest Carlie Zak and I discuss why so many women feel exhausted, even when they're trying to make healthier choices. In Part 1 of this two-part conversation, Cynthia Harvey-Brown welcomes Carlie Zak to explore why burnout has become so common, what it means to live in greater alignment, and why supporting your health involves more than food and fitness alone. Together, they discuss the connection between mindset, daily habits, faith, and the environment we live in—and why understanding the root causes of exhaustion is the first step toward lasting transformation. In This Episode Why so many women have accepted burnout as normal The connection between alignment and energy Why health is about more than diet and exercise How faith and wisdom influence everyday decisions Why awareness is the foundation for lasting change

Gina Johansen is a Swedish-born endurance athlete, adventurer, and a track work rider based in Sydney and Norway. She is currently preparing for a world record attempt to become the fastest woman to ski solo and unsupported to the South Pole in 2026.  She grew up on a horse farm in Sweden, where her love for horses and the outdoors began early. Gina spent eight years riding trackwork for leading Thoroughbred racing stables in Australia and is now back riding racehorses in Sydney alongside her polar training.  Her previous expeditions include becoming the first woman to cross Lake Baikal in Siberia solo by foot, skiing solo from North Cape to Jäckvik, crossing Svalbard on skis, cycling 2700km from Sydney to Cairns, and hiking the full length of Norway with her partner and their dog. She also spent eight years living near North Cape, the northernmost point of Europe, training in extreme Arctic conditions.  Through her journey, Gina hopes to inspire others—especially women—to push beyond their limits, take on big challenges, and discover what they're truly capable of. ***  New episodes of the Tough Girl Podcast drop every Tuesday at 7 AM (UK time)! Make sure to subscribe so you never miss the inspiring journeys and incredible stories of tough women pushing boundaries.  Do you want to support the Tough Girl Mission to increase the amount of female role models in the media in the world of adventure and physical challenges? Support via Patreon!

In this solo episode of the Shared Practices Podcast, Dr. Andrew Clingan tackles one of the most insidious threats to sustainable dental practice growth: a lack of clear vision. Using a real-world example of a highly successful but directionless young practice owner, Andrew explains how relying purely on talent and willpower eventually leads to spinning in circles. When you lack clarity, it becomes impossible to make sound decisions about marketing, PPOs, or multi-practice expansion, ultimately stunting your long-term success.To excel as a dentist today, you must understand that the "floor" has risen; succeeding requires more intentional business strategies than it did a decade ago. Andrew emphasizes that you cannot simultaneously optimize for elite clinical mastery, aggressive scaling, and perfect work-life balance. Achieving sustainable dental practice growth requires picking a path and maintaining a disciplined clarity of vision.Here is your guide to finding focus for your practice:Ignore the Extremes: Do not let social media highlight reels push you into building a 30-practice DSO or becoming an elite cosmetic dentist if those paths do not align with your true desires. The "middle of the road"—such as a profitable group model with two doctors and four hygienists—is often the sweet spot for sustainable dental practice growth.Audit Your Time: Regularly sit down and write out everything you do throughout the week. Identify the tasks you hate (like managing staff drama) and delegate them to leadership, while doubling down on the things that actually fire you up.Build Optionality Early: Be highly conservative with your personal finances early in your career. Living below your means and aggressively investing in your clinical and business skills provides you with the freedom to pivot your career path in your 40s or 50s.Read "Traction": Implement the principles from Gino Wickman's EOS framework to align your team and ensure everyone in the practice is rowing in the exact same direction.Ready to take the next step in your dental practice journey?

In this episode of Productivity Smarts, host Gerald J. Leonard sits down with Dr. Oluyemisi Famuyiwa, a leading reproductive endocrinologist, associate clinical professor at George Washington University, and author of The Quest for Fertility: The Quest for a Long Life. Dr. Oluyemisi shares what inspired her to write the book after years of watching patients struggle with fertility issues that could have been prevented. Together, they explore the surprising connection between reproductive health and everyday productivity.Gerald and Dr. Oluyemisi discuss how sleep, nutrition, movement, and stress quietly shape our biology long before we notice the effects. They explore the science behind blue light and melatonin, how the brain's "tick-tock center" regulates fertility, and the emerging field of epigenetics, showing how life experiences and environmental factors can influence which genes get "read." Dr. Oluyemisi also shares a powerful patient story about unprocessed trauma and allostatic stress, illustrating how the body remembers experiences the mind may have buried.Whether you're planning a family, recovering from burnout, or simply trying to understand why sleep and stress affect every part of your health, this episode offers a science-backed reminder that the body and mind are never truly separate, and that living in alignment with your biology is one of the smartest investments you can make in your productivity and well-being.What We Discuss[00:00] Productivity Smarts introduction[02:01] Meet Dr. Oluyemisi Famuyiwa and The Quest for Fertility[06:36] Why Dr. Oluyemisi wrote the book[10:43] The butterfly garden: finding stillness on purpose[13:23] Fertility planning and irreversible damage[14:11] Smoking, diabetes, STDs, and marijuana's impact on fertility[18:11] The biggest misconception: "time will work itself out"[20:03] Epigenetics explained: the DNA "cookbook" analogy[26:26] The food, sleep, and movement trifecta[29:19] Blue light, melatonin, and the circadian clock[32:27] Living in alignment as a form of productivity[33:22] Allostatic load: the body remembers[34:37] A patient's story of trauma, survival, and healing[40:07] Where to find Dr. Oluyemisi Famuyiwa and her book[41:52] Final thoughts Notable Quotes[06:45] "I always joke that I visit the whole world vicariously through my patients." – Dr. Oluyemisi[16:33] "Sometimes it comes down to how badly do you want it. Do you want it bad enough to make changes in your life?" – Dr. Oluyemisi[18:58] "You can't ignore your biology. You can't reverse engineer your biology. Your biology really doesn't wait." – Dr. Oluyemisi[20:54] "Epigenetics means you have your normal DNA, but something latches onto it and gums it up—like a paperclip on a cookbook. You can't read those chapters until you remove what's clipping them together." – Dr. Oluyemisi[25:57] "The same things that will help your reproductive health will also make you live longer. What's wrong with that? The worst that could happen is you live a little longer." – Dr. Oluyemisi[27:52] "There's a Yoruba proverb that says, 'Whatever the bird eats is what the bird carries around.' You are what you eat." – Dr. Oluyemisi[38:49] "The body remembers. Even when we don't, our bodies record every stressful situation we live through." – Dr. Oluyemisi[38:18] "When there is no closure, that wound gets picked open again and again. It takes a toll on people." – Dr. OluyemisiResource and LinksDr. Oluyemisi FamuyiwaWebsite: montgomeryfertilityInstagram: @MontgomeryFertilityLinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/Oluyemisi-famuyiwaBook: Quest for FertilityProductivity Smarts PodcastWebsite - productivitysmartspodcast.comGerald J.

This week's episode was supposed to be a deeper dive into perimenopause, but as I started talking, the conversation went somewhere completely different. And honestly, I think it went exactly where it needed to go.I open up about some very personal parts of my health journey, including living with HPV, abnormal pap smears, precancerous cervical cells, and a recent conversation with my doctor about potentially having a partial hysterectomy. That conversation brought up so many questions for me about what happens to our bodies as we age and the parts of womanhood we don't talk about nearly enough.I also share what I've noticed changing in my 40s when it comes to sex, libido, vaginal health, and how those changes have affected the way I see myself as a woman. We talk about vaginal estrogen, recurrent UTIs during perimenopause, my recent experience with an infection I initially ignored, and why listening to our bodies and advocating for our health matters so much.In this episode, we discuss:Living with HPV and my history of abnormal pap smearsWhy my doctor brought up a partial hysterectomySex, libido, vaginal dryness, and intimacy in your 40sVaginal estrogen and vaginal health during perimenopauseMy recent UTI experience and why I wish I had acted soonerLearning to listen to your body and advocate for yourselfIf you've been experiencing changes in your body that you don't understand, putting off an appointment, or simply wondering why no one ever taught us about some of these things, I hope this conversation encourages you to ask questions, listen to your gut, and take your health seriously.Our bodies are such a gift, and sometimes, watching them change can be harder and more emotional than we expect.Here's to asking more questions and learning as we go. ❤️WANT TO JOIN A COMMUNITY THAT UNDERSTANDS THIS?

In today's episode of Truth Wanted, ObjectivelyDan, Richard Gilliver, and Kelley Laughlin examine miracles, dreams, and the psychology behind seemingly supernatural experiences.Jacob in ID calls to express his gratitude for the show, explaining how it serves as his secular community after seven years of listening. Living in a rural area without much access to other atheists, he finds connection through the ACA shows. The hosts thank him for his support and encourage him to keep engaging with the community.Katie in VA shares her experiences with precognitive and visitation dreams, keeping a detailed dream journal of coincidental events. She describes dreams about deceased people and specific details that later seemed to come true. The hosts discuss Littlewood's Law, which explains how seemingly miraculous coincidences are statistically inevitable given enough opportunities. They explore the Texas Sharpshooter Fallacy, where people draw targets around bullet holes after the fact, and how memory can be unreliable. What psychological mechanisms might explain these experiences without invoking the supernatural? The conversation touches on how the Catholic Church evaluates miracles, mass hallucinations like Fatima, and the misinformation effect in eyewitness testimony. How do we distinguish between genuine precognition and pattern-seeking brains finding connections that aren't really there?Thank you for joining us this week!

What happens when life looks successful on the outside, but something inside still feels incomplete?On this episode of I Am Refocused Radio, Shemaiah Reed welcomes intuitive life coach and creator of Living Fully with Sarah, Sarah Collins. After spending more than 20 years working as a civil engineer, Sarah began questioning the constant pursuit of achievement, the pressure to reach the next milestone, and the belief that happiness was always somewhere in the future.Sarah shares how mindfulness, self-inquiry, and a deeper exploration of identity helped her understand the thought patterns, beliefs, and conditioning that can keep people waiting for life instead of fully experiencing it.Together, Shemaiah and Sarah explore awareness, overthinking, personal awakening, fear, inner wisdom, and what becomes possible when we stop searching outside ourselves for every answer.This conversation is for anyone who feels stuck, out of alignment, or ready to look beneath the surface and begin living more fully, no matter what life brings.Learn more about Sarah Collins at LivingFullyWithSarah.com.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/i-am-refocused-radio--2671113/support.Subscribe now at YouTube.com/@RefocusedNetworkThank you for your time.

Home Prices & Inventory (4:03) The Commute to Grand Rapids (5:16) Downtown Rockford & The River Scene (6:08) Tradeoffs: Nightlife, Diversity & Car Dependency (7:02) Who Thrives in Rockford (and Who Doesn't) (7:37) Final Thoughts (8:41)ABOUT ROCKFORD, MICHIGANRockford, Michigan is located about 15 miles north of downtown Grand Rapids, and it has managed to grow over the years while keeping its small-town, community-first feel. People know Rockford for its charming downtown, excellent schools, outdoor recreation, and a strong sense of community, with local restaurants that know regulars by name and neighborhoods where kids still ride bikes until the streetlights come on.THE OUTDOOR LIFESTYLEOne of the biggest reasons people fall in love with Rockford is the lifestyle. The Rogue River flows directly through downtown, and residents spend their summers kayaking, canoeing, fishing, paddle boarding, and relaxing along the riverwalk. Rockford also connects directly to the White Pine Trail, a paved trail stretching more than 90 miles, making it easy to bike, run, or walk right from downtown.SCHOOLS AND REAL ESTATEThe Rockford Public School District is consistently one of the highest rated in West Michigan, and it's a major reason home values here have stayed so strong. Compared to much of West Michigan, Rockford runs on the higher end for home prices, though it's still considered affordable next to major metro areas nationally. Inventory stays limited, and well-priced homes in desirable neighborhoods often see multiple offers.COMMUTE AND DAILY LIFEMost residents commute to downtown Grand Rapids in about 20 to 30 minutes, with easy access to the Medical Mile, Corewell Health, and other major employers. Rockford is a car-dependent community outside of downtown, so anyone moving from a highly walkable city should expect an adjustment.DOWNTOWN AND TRADEOFFSDowntown Rockford is small but active, filled with local restaurants, coffee shops, boutiques, breweries, and community events, with the river as the backdrop for much of summer life. It's not trying to be downtown Grand Rapids, which is exactly why people love it. That said, it's quieter than other parts of the metro, with less nightlife and less diversity, which matters to some buyers and not to others.WHO ROCKFORD IS RIGHT FORRockford tends to be the perfect fit for families who prioritize schools, professionals who want a quieter lifestyle close to Grand Rapids, outdoor enthusiasts, and buyers looking for long-term stability in both lifestyle and home values.If you're considering a move to West Michigan, we'd love to help you find the right fit.

We conclude our Youth for God Weekend with this powerful message from Caleb Speer as he walks through Ephesians 3. Wrapping up the weekend's "Made for More" theme, Caleb reminds us that our greatest purpose is not found in our plans, careers, or accomplishments—but in bringing glory to God through Christ and His church. In this lesson, we discover that God has called us into something far bigger than ourselves. Our identity is found in Christ, our purpose is found in His mission, and our lives are meant to display God's wisdom and glory to the world. Caleb encourages both young people and adults to know Christ deeply, serve faithfully, and trust that God can accomplish far more than we could ever imagine. Key Scripture

What does it mean to live well with ocular melanoma for more than a decade? In this episode of Living in the Long Middle, we're joined by Dr. Ian Kamerman, a physician from Australia who has been living with ocular melanoma for 14 years. Ian shares his personal journey—from the shock of his initial diagnosis to navigating survivorship while continuing to care for patients as a physician.   With the unique perspective of both a doctor and an ocular melanoma survivor, Dr. Kamerman reflects on the lessons he's learned, the challenges he's faced, and how life has evolved over the years. His story is one of resilience, hope, and finding purpose in the "long middle"—the years between diagnosis and whatever comes next.   Whether you're newly diagnosed, years into survivorship, or supporting a loved one with ocular melanoma, Ian's story is a powerful reminder that life continues beyond diagnosis—and that you're not alone.  

Being reminded and assured that Jesus is the all-powerful, all-knowing King of kings should give Christians a sense of security like nothing else will.

It is always a special treat to reconnect with the founder of The Dollar Vigilante and Anarchapulco, Jeff Berwick. In the six years since we released The Controlled Demolition of the American Empire, most of what we predicted has come to pass in some form or fashion, not that we take any pleasure in it. Living a healthy life has become essential in today's polluted modern world, and new ideas are coming to light about how to improve our health in nontraditional ways. Can a TZLA machine really be the answer to some of the many medical issues faced by humanity? It already is, and many people are experiencing the healing benefits right now.Jeff Berwick: The Dollar Vigilante: https://dollarvigilante.com/Liberpulco: www.Liberpulco.com---Macroaggressionswww.Macroaggressions.ioMerch StoreLink Tree Video ChannelsRumble | YouTube | BrighteonActivist PostNewsletter Sign UpAudiobooksHypocrazyThe Octopus of Global ControlSupport Our SponsorsReplace Your Mortgage: www.WipeOutYourMortgageNow.comGround Luxe Grounding MatsC60 Power | Promo Code: MACROChemical Free Body | Promo Code: MACROWise Wolf Gold & SilverLegalShield: www.DontGetPushedAround.comChristian Yordanov's Health ProgramThe Dollar Vigilante

195 Funeral Planning, Grief, and Hospice: Bob Arrington on Why Celebrating a Life Matters Host Marie Betcher, a registered nurse and former hospice nurse, interviews Bob Arrington, NFDA spokesperson and longtime Tennessee funeral director, about how funeral service supports the grief journey and why planning matters. Arrington explains that families don't call a funeral director just to bury or cremate, but to begin adjusting to a "new normal," and that skipping any kind of service often makes grief harder for family and community. He encourages pausing to honor a life even with simple gatherings, and stresses that pre-planning (not necessarily pre-paying) reduces emotional stress by preventing loved ones from making major decisions in crisis. They discuss hospice as a major benefit that supports care and dying at home, grief resources through NFDA and Alan Wolfelt, the importance of individualized grief timelines, and NFDA's "Have the Talk of a Lifetime" conversation cards. 00:00 Welcome and Disclaimer 00:28 Meet Host Marie 00:41 Introducing Bob Arrington 02:47 Bob's Funeral Calling 03:59 Why Services Matter 08:57 Community Grief Ripples 11:53 Grief Support Resources 15:37 When Grief Becomes Physical 17:53 Funeral Process Explained 21:49 Preplanning Without Fear 27:45 Prepay vs Emotional Relief 31:05 Hospice and Final Takeaways 33:06 Contact and Closing https://www.nfda.org/ Link to Bob's episode "Death It's a Living" https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3573530/ https://www.nfda.org/your-business/business-resources/remembering-a-life/have-the-talk-of-a-lifetime/conversation-cards/ If you want to help, you can donate to help support Hospice Explained at the Buy me a Coffee link   https://www.buymeacoffee.com/Hospice  Hospice Explained Affiliates & Contact Information Buying from these Affilite links will help support this Podcast.  Maire introduces a partnership with Suzanne Mayer RN inventor of the  cloud9caresystem.com,  When patients remain in the same position for extended periods, they are at high risk of developing pressure injuries, commonly known as bedsores.

In this episode, we unpack why “influencer” has become a dirty word and explore the hidden psychology behind influencer hate, online criticism, and the way women's success is judged in the digital age. We discuss whether society holds female creators to a different standard, the connection between visibility and misogyny, why women with platforms often become targets, and how we can separate valid accountability from unfair judgement. Phi dives into social media culture, female entrepreneurship, beauty and lifestyle industries, jealousy, authenticity, ambition, and why women who build careers from their voice, personality, creativity, and communities can provoke such strong reactions. Is influencer criticism really about the content, or does it reveal something deeper about how we view successful women?

Rise of the Influencer Let's go back.The word influencer didn't always exist in the way it does today.Before social media, we already had people influencing culture.Celebrities influenced fashion.Athletes influenced brands.Actors sold products.Musicians created trends.Magazines told us what beauty looked like.Advertising executives literally built entire careers around influencing consumer behaviour.But when everyday people, especially women, started building businesses online through their personalities, suddenly the conversation changed.A woman creating content from her bedroom, building a community, monetising her knowledge, selling products, creating businesses, or making money through her personal brand was often dismissed.“She just posts online.”But that sentence is interesting.Because historically, women's work has often been minimised when it exists in spaces traditionally associated with femininity.Beauty.Fashion.Lifestyle.Relationships.Wellness.Community.Emotional labour.Things that women have always been doing, but society often doesn't assign the same value to. Why Does “Influencer” Feel Like a Dirty Word? think one of the reasons the word influencer has become so controversial is because it challenges traditional ideas of what “real work” looks like.There is still a belief that if you are not exhausted, struggling, or hidden behind a corporate title,

Welcome to Wellspring Church!What does it mean to waste the one life God has given us? In this message, Billy Waters challenges us to examine whether our plans are centered on ourselves or surrendered to the purposes of God.Looking at James 4, we see that planning is not the problem—planning without dependence on God is. Because life is fragile and fleeting, we are called to trust God's will, obey Him today, and live with eternity in view.

Welcome to another inspiring episode of The Temple of Surf Podcast. This week, I am joined by Christina Gindl, Austrian big wave surfer, ocean adventurer, filmmaker, and one of the most inspiring voices in modern surfing. Born in the Austrian mountains, Christina's path to surfing was anything but conventional. After moving abroad and discovering life on the ocean, she fell in love with surfing, eventually settling in Portugal, where she has become known for charging some of the Atlantic's most powerful waves, including the legendary breaks around Nazaré and Ericeira. Today, she is also an accomplished freediver, storyteller, and filmmaker, constantly exploring the relationship between fear, resilience, and the ocean. In this episode, we dive into Christina's remarkable journey—from growing up far from the sea to becoming one of Europe's most respected female big wave surfers. We discuss what it takes to prepare mentally and physically for giant waves, why fear can become one of our greatest teachers, and how surfing continues to shape her outlook on life. We also explore her passion for freediving, the importance of breathing techniques, and the unique connection between body and mind when facing the immense power of the ocean. Christina shares how these experiences have helped her grow both as an athlete and as a person, reminding us that the biggest battles often happen within ourselves. The conversation also touches on creativity and storytelling. Through her latest documentary project, Christina invites viewers beyond the spectacular images of giant waves, revealing the emotional and personal challenges that come with pursuing an extraordinary life. Her work offers an honest perspective on identity, recovery, and the resilience required to return after setbacks. Whether you're passionate about big wave surfing, surf culture, ocean exploration, freediving, or simply enjoy hearing inspiring life stories, this episode is filled with valuable insights and unforgettable experiences. Topics include: • Big wave surfing • Nazaré and Portugal's powerful coastline • Fear and mental preparation • Freediving and breathwork • Surf travel • Ocean conservation • Surf filmmaking • Resilience and personal growth • Women's surfing • Living a life guided by passion At The Temple of Surf Podcast, our mission is to preserve and celebrate the stories of the people who continue to shape surfing around the world. Christina Gindl represents a new generation of waterwomen who combine athletic performance, creativity, and a deep respect for the ocean.

In this episode of Living a Life in Full, I sit down with Dr. Jordan Grumet — hospice physician, author of The Purpose Code, and host of Earn & Invest — to explore what it really means to live a life of meaning rather than mere achievement. Drawing from his years at the bedside of patients nearing the end of life, Jordan shares powerful lessons about purpose, money, and what truly matters. Together, we unpack the myths of "finding your passion" and the pressure of "purpose anxiety," offering a more grounded, humane framework for aligning values, vocation, and vitality. Our conversation bridges the practical and the philosophical — from financial independence and fulfillment to designing a life of intentionality, curiosity, and contribution. Whether you're in medicine, business, or any stage of reinvention, this episode invites you to rethink success and rediscover purpose as an evolving practice, not a destination. It's a thoughtful, deeply human dialogue on how to live — and leave — a legacy that counts.

Zach's teenage son, Bear, joins Jase, Al, and Zach for an honest look at the pornography, absent fathers, and spiritual confusion affecting his generation. Bear proves how standing openly for Jesus helped other young men at his school step forward in faith, and he reflects on the godly mentors who strengthened his relationship with Christ. The guys consider how families can break destructive generational patterns, why Solomon's legacy warns believers to finish strong, and how Phil Robertson's preaching still points young people toward the only source of true peace of mind. In this episode: Genesis 1:28; Proverbs 3:5; Malachi 2:15-16; Matthew 6:33; 1 Corinthians 6:18-20; James 1:14-17; James 2:14-26; James 3:7; 1 John 2:13-16; 1 John 4:15-17 “Unashamed” Episode 1388 is sponsored by: http://unashamedforhillsdale.com/ — Sign up now for free, and join the Unashamed hosts every Friday for Unashamed Academy Powered by Hillsdale College Listen to Not Yet Now with Zach Dasher on Apple, Spotify, iHeart, or anywhere you get podcasts.
