Sleep Calming and Relaxing ASMR Thunder Rain Podcast for Studying, Meditation and Focus
Sometimes, deep down, you just know you've outgrown something... a relationship, a version of yourself, a habit, or a season of life. In this episode, we're talking about when you are finally ready to surrender instead of cling, to turn to God and let go by saying:"I allow You to remove what is no longer meant for me."Letting go and having faith isn't easy, but making room for what is meant for you begins with releasing what isn't.We're also talking about healing versus numbing. As humans, when we experience pain, loss, anxiety, or heartbreak, it's natural to want to escape. Give yourself permission to rest, have constant dopamine hits, be crazy, laugh, and experience intense joy again. Show yourself grace. There is life on the other side of the hurt.But there also comes a moment when the distractions stop feeling genuine. When you're left asking yourself:Am I becoming someone I recognize and am proud of?If those questions have been on your heart, this episode is for you.Healing isn't about pretending the pain never happened. It's about sitting with it, learning from it, and allowing it to transform you instead of running from it. Numbness can feel like protection, but often it's just avoidance in disguise.Without sorrow, we would never truly know joy. Your healing isn't about becoming someone new, it's about returning to the person you came here to be. I hope this conversation reminds you that letting go isn't losing, it's making space for everything that's waiting for you on the other side.Love you all.
How should a modern bookkeeper price their services? In this episode, we explore why the traditional hourly model no longer works, how a bookkeeper can price with confidence, and why delivering value should always come before competing on price. Whether you're a new bookkeeper or an experienced bookkeeper, you'll discover practical advice to help you build a more profitable bookkeeper business, have better pricing conversations, and charge for the value you create rather than the time you spend.

In this inspiring talk, we explore the idea that releasing what no longer serves us is only half the spiritual practice—we must also consciously welcome the greater good ready to unfold in our lives. The Law responds to expectancy, and when we create spaciousness in consciousness, we become more receptive to possibilities beyond what we can plan or control. Through themes of worthiness, openness, and allowing ease rather than effort, this talk invites us to trust that we don't have to know how our good will arrive—only to remain open and receptive to it.

Break/Fix Podcast returns with an interview with Vince Finaldi, who is taking over leadership of the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance after Sandra Button's 40-year tenure. Finaldi shares his Italian-American automotive family history, early exposure to imported exotics, and a lifelong buy-fix-sell approach that funded his education after four years as a Marine infantryman, alongside a 22-year career as a trial lawyer handling high-stakes civil cases for sexual abuse victims. He recounts chasing and restoring Lamborghini Miuras, including buying one in 2015 with help from Valentino Balboni and sourcing rare parts through industry contacts. Vince explains how Pebble Beach must evolve carefully by welcoming important newer cars while preserving rigorous judging standards, emphasizing the concours as a “classroom,” its charity mission, youth-access programs, and upcoming celebrations including the 75th anniversary and a major Miura gathering for its 60th anniversary. ===== (Oo---x---oO) ===== 00:00 Pebble Beach Concours New Era 01:15 Vince's Family Roots in Cars 03:37 Falling for the Miura 06:15 Flipping Cars to Fund Dreams 12:37 Deep Dive Car Obsession & Hunting the Next Classic 16:14 From Courtroom to Carmel 20:11 Taking the Pebble Torch 22:13 How Concours Evolves 23:51 Concours Origins and the Tour d'Elegance 25:57 Market Shift in Collecting 27:52 Concours as Classroom and Making Room for New Greats 32:39 Do EVs Belong Here? 33:59 Youth Access and Free Events 35:20 Car Week Business Reality 39:21 Pebble Vision and Standards 41:30 How to Apply and Get In 42:05 Building Future Featured Classes 44:32 Miura Anniversary and Dream Classes 47:01 Small Changes Ahead 48:06 75th Anniversary Wrap Up 50:10 Sponsor and Show Outro ==================== The Motoring Podcast Network : Years of racing, wrenching and Motorsports experience brings together a top notch collection of knowledge, stories and information. #everyonehasastory #gtmbreakfix - motoringpodcast.net More Information: Visit Our Website Become a VIP at: Patreon Online Magazine: Gran Touring Follow us on Social: Instagram
We are all unreliable narrators of our own lives. The story we tell ourselves about why a relationship ended, why we have not met the right person, or why someone else needs to change before things can get better may feel completely true. But it is still only one side of the story. Lori Gottlieb is a psychotherapist, bestselling author of Maybe You Should Talk to Someone, New York Times advice columnist, and host of the podcasts Dear Therapists and Since You Asked. She has spent years listening to the stories people tell about their lives, while also being honest about her own experience on the other side of the couch. In this special episode of Real Love Ready, recorded live at the Global Love Conference in New York City, Robin and Lori explore what changes when we become willing to question our own version of events. Together, they talk about why the most dangerous story in a relationship is that everything was the other person's fault, what flexibility can tell us about someone's capacity for partnership, and how to know whether someone is genuinely ready for love. They discuss ghosting, rejection, chemistry, and the conversations we are often afraid to have early on in a relationship. They also look at how AI and texting are changing intimacy, what many of us have been taught about vulnerability, and what it takes to make room for someone new after divorce, loss, or a whole life lived before them. This is a conversation about becoming a more honest narrator of your own life, not by taking responsibility for everything, but by getting curious about the part that belongs to you.

In the beginning of a relationship, the cement is still wet.” – Lori Gottlieb “It's so much about communication. It's so much about just being honest. It's scary to have those hard conversations, but you have to have them.” – Robin Ducharme “The easy part of a relationship is: we are both really interested in each other. The harder part is, how do we deal with difficulties that come up?” – Lori Gottlieb ABOUT THE GUEST Lori Gottlieb is a licensed psychotherapist and New York Times bestselling author of Maybe You Should Talk to Someone, which has sold more than three million copies and been translated into more than 30 languages.

ARE YOU MAKING ROOM Scripture: Matthew 5:6 “Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.” There is something special about the way God fills our lives. He never forces His way into a crowded heart. Instead, He invites us to make room for Him. Yesterday we prayed, “Pour Out Your Spirit, Lord.” It is a wonderful thing to desire because it recognizes our dependence upon God. We should always long for His Presence, His Wisdom, His Peace, and His Power to work in our lives. But Today, the question becomes a little more personal. Have you made room to receive what you've been asking God to pour out?
What if art isn't simply something we admire, but something that asks something of us?In this episode, Stephen Roach sits down with acclaimed printmaker, educator, and storyteller Steve Prince for a conversation about the vocation of the artist. Drawing from history, faith, family, and lived experience, Steve shares how his work seeks to preserve memory, confront injustice, and create spaces where genuine transformation can begin.From the legacy of the Civil Rights Movement to the power of oral storytelling, from New Orleans kitchen tables to ambitious community art projects, Steve reveals why he believes artists are called to help us "remember to remember" and to imagine a more hopeful future together.Together they explore:Why artists are called to be truth-tellersHow history shapes both our imagination and our responsibilityThe role of beauty in confronting difficult realitiesWhy storytelling is essential to healing divided communitiesSteve's Kitchen Table project and its vision for reconciliationCreating art that challenges, invites, and transformsFaith, social justice, and the spiritual calling of creative workHelping the next generation of artists embrace both courage and adaptabilityWhether you're an artist, educator, historian, or simply someone longing for deeper conversations in a fractured world, this episode offers a vision of art as an act of hospitality, remembrance, and hope.Quote from the Episode"The artist helps us remember to remember.""Art isn't made to divide us, it creates a pathway toward who we could become.""Every table has something to teach us." - Steve PrinceResources MentionedSteve Prince's Kitchen Table community art projectTrinity City graphic novel initiativeHoward ThurmanMartin LutherMedgar EversEmmett TillRosa ParksMartin Luther King Jr.If this episode encouraged you, please consider sharing it with a friend, leaving a review, or supporting the work of Makers & Mystics through Patreon.Produced by Stephen Roach.Music by Some Were at Sea.Keep Creating.

As we move through the second week of July, the Akashic Records offer a gentle yet powerful reminder:✨ Let go to receive.This week's message isn't about dramatic change or forcing yourself to release everything that no longer serves you. Instead, it's an invitation to create a little more space—within your heart, your mind, your home, and your spirit—for what is quietly trying to emerge.The Records shared the image of opening the door of a bird's cage after a season of healing. While there may be tenderness in letting go, there is also freedom. Every small act of release becomes an invitation for something new to enter.In this episode, we explore:
For many women, saying yes became second nature long before we ever stopped to ask what we actually wanted. We were raised to be dependable, accommodating, and generous—often at the expense of ourselves. Psychologist Wendy Oconnor joins me to explore why learning to say no isn't about becoming selfish. It's about making room for the people, passions, and purpose that truly belong in this next chapter of life. In this episode: Why so many women mistake burnout for simply "being busy" What "languishing" really feels like—and why it matters How decades of conditioning make saying no surprisingly difficult Practical ways to set boundaries without guilt or over-explaining Why every no creates space for a more meaningful yes How curiosity can become a guide for designing your next chapter Perhaps the most important question isn't "What should I do next?" but "What am I finally ready to stop saying yes to?"

When the whirlwind took Elijah up into heaven, Elisha didn't just inherit a cloak—he inherited a double portion of a heavy prophetic mantle. If your life currently feels like a series of dry brooks, empty oil jars, or overwhelming spiritual battles, Elisha's ministry provides the exact roadmap to help you find the living water. Summary: In this episode, we deep dive into the masterclass of faith found in 2 Kings 1–13. We move from the final, fiery testimonies of Elijah to the intimate, life-giving miracles of Elisha, tracking how God continues to validate and empower His chosen servants across generations. Passing the Mantle: We break down the beautiful, unwavering loyalty of Elisha to Elijah and what it truly means to receive a "double portion" of spiritual power through humility and close proximity. The Widow's Oil and the Shunammite's Son: We analyze the biology of these miracles, where God takes the tiny resources we have available—a single pot of oil or a small chamber—and multiplies them to preserve life. The Healing of Naaman: We dissect the pride of the Syrian captain who wanted a spectacular display but was commanded to wash seven times in a muddy river. Discover why small, simple things are the hardest for the natural man to accept. Eyes to See: When the Syrian army surrounds Elisha and his servant, we see the ultimate contrast between physical sight and spiritual vision. Learn how to look past the visible opposition to see the mountains filled with horses and chariots of fire. The Power of Elisha's Bones: We conclude with the bizarre and beautiful final miracle of Elisha, where even his dead bones have the power to resurrect a man, proving that our covenant connections to the prophets outlive mortality itself. Call-to-Action:Are you standing at the edge of your own "Jordan River," wondering if the power that was with the giants of the past is still available to you today? What is the "muddy river" the Lord is asking you to wash in right now? Let's talk about it in the comments below.

What if the “more” we are asking God for begins with giving Him more of us?In this message, Pastor Eileen kicks off our brand new summer series, More, by teaching on the person and work of the Holy Spirit.The Holy Spirit is not a force, an energy, or something strange to avoid.

He convicts, confirms, carries, illuminates, and empowers us to live a life that reflects Jesus.This message is an invitation to make room for more of God's presence in our lives. As we begin this series, we are asking the Holy Spirit to bring fresh fire, awaken our hearts, reveal truth, and lead us deeper into the life Jesus has for us.If this message encouraged you, share it with someone who needs a reminder that help is here and the Holy Spirit is closer than we think.Make sure to like and subscribe to stay up to date with weekly messages from Venture Church.Timestamps0:00 – Independence Weekend Welcome1:00 – Welcome from Pastor Eileen1:53 – Venture Is a Place to Belong2:18 – Introducing the More Series2:47 – Giving God More of Us3:17 – Opening Prayer4:23 – Leaning Into God's Word5:17 – Making Room for More7:58 – Fresh Fire and the Person of the Holy Spirit8:20 – Who Is the Holy Spirit?9:22 – People Can Be Weird, But God Is Not Weird9:47 – Dove, Fire, Wind, and River as Metaphors10:43 – John 14 and the Promise of Another Advocate11:40 – The Upper Room Discourse12:47 – Another Advocate of the Same Kind13:33 – Help from Heaven14:03 – The Holy Spirit Is Fully God14:32 – Understanding the Trinity15:00 – The Holy Spirit in Creation15:12 – The Holy Spirit in the Life and Ministry of Jesus16:16 – The Holy Spirit Has a Personality17:30 – The Holy Spirit Has Emotions18:06 – Help Is Here19:20 – The Holy Spirit Has a Specific Role19:44 – The Spirit of Truth20:18 – Truth in a Confusing World21:24 – Feelings Can Be Real, But Not Always True22:13 – The Holy Spirit Represents Jesus22:43 – The Holy Spirit Is the Game Changer23:40 – The Survivor Advantage Illustration24:43 – The Holy Spirit as Advocate, Helper, and Coach25:11 – The Voice of the Coach26:28 – The Holy Spirit Takes Residence in Us27:28 – The Holy Spirit Convicts28:18 – The Spotlight on Sin29:09 – The Holy Spirit Reveals What Sin Conceals29:38 – The Holy Spirit Illuminates Truth30:31 – The Holy Spirit Extends the Love of Jesus Through Us31:06 – Living on Mission Across the Street31:49 – Mother Hunter's Story33:07 – Jesus Prayers and a Life of Witness33:57 – What Does the Holy Spirit Want to Say to You?34:37 – Making Room for More of God35:18 – Worship Response38:33 – Pastor Brandon Responds39:04 – What Happened?39:37 – Conviction Unlocks Something New40:43 – Summer Service Schedule Reminder41:05 – What's Next and Popsicles41:31 – Closing Prayer

H4HH: Making Room For More Ps Belinda Varlow
More than one-fifth of the 150K+ convenience stores have spoken, and they shared some interesting opinions about the growing energy drinks category. And even if you aren't familiar with every insight regarding this beverage category, I'm sure you intuitively recognize that convenience is the most important sales channel (by sales dollars) for energy drinks in the U.S. market. But here are my top “categorical” takeaways from the most recent Goldman Sachs Beverage Bytes survey. Firstly, c-stores are preparing to allocate more space for the female-focused, better-for-you energy drink brands…with 87% stating they'll find more room for Bloom between now and January 2027. Similarly, after just lapping its first year in-market, Phorm Energy is expected to earn more “cooler space” between now and the start of next year. Finally for my category “inflation watchers,” around 81% expect pricing to increase across the energy drinks market throughout the year…with 25% believing price hikes will be “significant.”
Dahron Johnson grew up surrounded by voices. Thousands of books in her parents' home, two people who met in divinity school, and a faith that taught her every person is fearfully and wonderfully made. And still, for decades, she could not find the words for who she was.In this episode, Anne-Marie sits down with her dear friend Dahron, a clinically trained chaplain, a tireless advocate, and the first openly trans person to speak from the floor of the Tennessee House. The two of them share roots in the North, in the church, and in the long work of coming home to themselves. They move through faith and the work of welcome, the cost of advocacy in Tennessee right now, and what it means to hold the whole person rather than the narrow slice the world finds convenient.Then the conversation turns inward. Dahron walks us through the years of living with no language and no container to put herself in, the ballet class and the leotard, the three days she spent tucked into the corner of a closet, and the hope bargain she made with herself to survive. She tells us about the lung collapses and the tumor that kept whispering there was a self she had never let herself know. And she brings us to the end of a therapist's driveway, the left turn and the right turn, the moment fifty years finally crystallized into one decision. It is time to get this done.This is a conversation about faith, courage, and the long road to naming ourselves. We are honored to share it with you.If you hear yourself somewhere in Dahron's story, you do not have to sit with it alone. Authentically Us is our community for women finding their way toward a more honest life. It is a soft place to land, a space for your queerness to bloom, and a room full of people who understand the questions you have not said out loud yet. We would love to welcome you.

Today on the show, a conversation with the aldermen of Batavia's Ward 4, Tony Malay and Dustin Pieper.Batavia is a place of belonging and acceptance. But this kind of culture doesn't come by accident. A town's culture is shaped by structures and systems. The culture we enjoy in Batavia is a direct result of the more formal acts of local government, staff, and public servants.In this episode, I spoke with two aldermen whose Ward is particularly diverse, and particularly influential to the makeup of Batavia. Ward 4 includes a bunch of Batavian staples: Aldi corporate, River street, Batavia Apartments, and the historic black neighborhood at North River street.That's a lot of history, economic diversity, and fast-moving change all in one location. So how do those in power protect and cultivate a sense of belonging in the midst of all of that? It turns out, it takes a combination of proactive policies, personal action, and relationship building.Subscribe to our newsletter to be updated about Area Code: Batavia and find out when new episodes are available.

What if the very thing you see as failure is actually creating room for God to do something greater?In this powerful message from the Netflex and Chill series, Pastor Jamal delivers a life-changing word titled “Space Maker,” challenging us to stop viewing our empty places as evidence of God's absence and start seeing them as opportunities for His presence.Using Luke 5 and the story of Simon Peter's empty fishing boat, Pastor Jamal reveals a profound truth: Jesus didn't choose a boat that was full of fish—He chose the empty one.Why?Because empty things have space.Many of us spend our lives trying to avoid disappointment, failure, and seasons of lack. Yet often it is in those very moments that God gains access to areas of our lives we would never have surrendered otherwise. What feels like loss may actually be God creating room for His purpose.This message challenges listeners to examine their “boat”—the areas of life that represent their identity, livelihood, relationships, priorities, routines, and personal control. Have these spaces become so crowded with fear, pride, success, unforgiveness, comfort, and distractions that there is no room left for Jesus?Pastor Jamal powerfully illustrates how even good things can become obstacles when they occupy space that belongs to God. Careers, achievements, reputations, routines, and even family priorities can unintentionally crowd out the presence and authority of Jesus if we're not careful.

Pearl is a queer pastor with a PhD in history. Rev Kev is a former missionary who now sometimes identifies as an atheist pastor. Together, they are forming a new church community in Maitland — with misfits front of mind. Will is joined by Pearl and Kev in Mitch Forbes' office, where the four of them have a conversation about queering the bible, exploring negative/apophatic theology and how these approaches might translate into the formation of a new church.Want to reach out and let us know your thoughts or suggestions for the show?

In this final episode of our Daughters series, we're diving into the story of Priscilla—a woman whose life reminds us that God loves to use ordinary people in extraordinary ways. Even though Priscilla doesn't have a single, linear story in Scripture, her impact on the early church is impossible to miss. Alongside her husband Aquila, she modeled faithful partnership, discipleship, hospitality, and unwavering commitment to God's mission. We talk about what it looks like to build the Kingdom alongside other people, why discipleship often happens around dinner tables and in everyday conversations, and how God uses His daughters to make an eternal impact. As we close out this entire series, we reflect on the beautiful truth that we are deeply loved daughters of God, living in light of the resurrection and empowered to share the hope of Jesus wherever He places us.

The day before Mother's Day, we're looking at the mixed emotions many moms feel: love, gratitude… and exhaustion. Dr. Corinne Low, a Wharton professor and author of Having It All, explains what the data shows about the pressures of modern motherhood — from how much time parents spend with kids today compared to decades ago, to the invisible work many moms still carry. Plus, how families can think differently about outsourcing help, and how even overwhelmed moms can make sure joy is still on the to-do list.

Revival cannot take root in an unprepared heart. Pastor Jeff Schreve explains why the Word of God is living and active—and why it demands clean soil to bear fruit. Using vivid illustrations, Pastor Jeff challenges listeners to lay aside moral filth, hidden sin, and lingering compromise so the Word can truly penetrate and transform. If your spiritual growth has stalled, this message shows what needs to be removed for renewal to begin.
Today's conversation might change the way you think about your home. What if the spaces you live in are quietly shaping your energy, relationships, and sense of purpose—every single day? Whether you own or rent, this episode will show you how to put the mind–body–environment connection to work for you.”Talor Stewart is a licensed architect with more than 25 years of experience and the author of the #1 bestselling book Conscious Home Design, which has reached the top of the charts in seven countries. An award-winning architect, Talor specializes in single- and multi-family homes as well as intentional communities, working with clients across the United States and select international locations.Talor's Website@conscioushomedesign on InstagramTalor's Facebook pageLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/talorstewart/Over the past two decades, Talor has developed the Conscious Home Design (CHD) philosophy and system—an approach that helps people understand how their homes can actively support wellbeing, relationships, and personal growth. In addition to his design practice, he teaches and certifies other designers and architects in the CHD method, empowering them to bring these life-changing principles to clients everywhere.Talor's work expands the familiar mind-body connection to include the built environment, helping people—whether they own or rent—make simple, meaningful changes that uplift daily life.1) What Really Makes a Good Life?Talor, you often reference long-term research on happiness. What does the research—especially the Harvard Study on Adult Happiness—tell us about what actually helps people thrive as they age, and how did that insight influence your approach to home design?2) Relationships, By DesignOne of the exercises in your workbook is about three different types of relationships that are essential to our wellbeing. Can you break those down for us—and explain how the bones of our homes can either support or undermine those relationships?3) From Maslow to the Floor PlanWhen you're thinking about what a home truly needs to provide, what framework do you use? How does Maslow's hierarchy of needs translate into your concept of the nine essential spaces, and why does that matter whether someone lives in a house or a small apartment?4) The “Sunny Window Effect”You've coined the term sunny window effect. What is it, and why does access to sunlight have such a powerful influence on motivation, mood, and daily behavior?5) Small Shifts, Big ImpactFor listeners who may not be building a new home—or who rent—what are a few small, practical changes they can make right now to shift their environment and, in turn, shift their life?If someone listening today wants to start living more intentionally—but feels overwhelmed—what's one simple step they can take this week to let their home support them more fully?What could we do to start making a “Creative Room: Express Yourself! Making Room for Creativity”?
In this episode of 5 Minutes of Peace, we welcome special guest Jill Amy Sager, who shares an abbreviated chapter from her book Guidance from the Universe: Hopeful Messages for Everyday Challenges. Today's reading centers on the theme of letting go — releasing what no longer serves us so we can move forward with greater ease, freedom, and clarity.Jill Amy's Website@jillamysager on InstagramJill Amy's Facebook pageJill Amy on YouTubeJill begins with a channeled message from a loving universal source, reminding us that holding on tightly can feel like clenching a fist. The tighter we grip, the more pain we experience. Letting go, by contrast, opens doors. It allows us to expand into change, into healing, and into new possibilities.Through personal stories and client experiences, Jill illustrates how attachment can quietly limit our lives — and how surrendering control often creates unexpected breakthroughs. She shares how releasing a painful relationship helped her reclaim her own happiness, and how a client's decision to loosen her grip on a long-held dream ultimately opened the door to a beautiful new beginning.This reading invites us to reflect on where we may be holding on out of fear, habit, or a desire for certainty — and how choosing to let go can restore our sense of peace and inner balance.Jill closes with thoughtful reflection questions, encouraging listeners to explore what they might release, what shifts when they do, and what new opportunities may arise when we soften our grip.You can learn more about her work at www.jillamysager.com.Thank you for listening, and thank yourself for taking five minutes of peace.
