Author Katia Ariel tells the story of Ephraim Finch, a man synonymous with death in the Melbourne Jewish community. He started life as Geoffrey William, the son of a butcher, who would go on to become a master builder before his life became unrecognisable to him.Several years ago, Melbourne author and book editor, Katia was invited to write Ephraim's biography.Katia was already familiar with his name.She had seen the way mourners uttered his name and felt a sense of calm and ease within their sorrow, because they trusted Ephraim as a master of death who would know how to lead them through the world of mourning.Ephraim started life as Geoffrey William Finch, the son of a butcher in the working class suburb of Ashfield in Sydney in the 1940s. He learned his love of reading from his pop, who would come home from his job at the abattoir and read Oscar Wilde's work over a cigar on the porch. From a young age Ephraim felt an ineffable pull toward monotheism and converted to Judaism, along with his wife, Cas, after the pair met as teenagers at the Wagga Wagga Royal Show.Eventually he was drawn to his vocation — the sacred and quiet ritual of preparing bodies for burial. And he became the go-to man in Melbourne, where over his career he has buried more than 10,000 people.Further informationFerryman: The life and deathwork of Ephraim Finch is published by Wild Dingo Press.Katia's first book, a memoir is called The Swift Dark Tide, published by Gazebo Books.Find out more about the Conversations Live National Tour on the ABC website.Conversations' Executive Producer is Nicola Harrison.

He wrote, directed, and starred in the award-winning thriller Cut To the Chase (with Lance Henriksen) and the acclaimed romantic comedy 6 Month Rule (alongside Martin Starr, Natalie Morales and John Michael Higgins). Previous films he's written and directed include Weather Girl (with Mark Harmon, Jon Cryer and Jane Lynch) and Outside Sales. He also co-wrote and acted in Manic (Don Cheadle, Joseph Gordon- Levitt and Zooey Deschanel) which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival.He has appeared in films such as Favor, Where We're Meant To Be, Junk, Deep Dark Canyon, Official Rejection, and The Good Old Boys opposite Tommy Lee Jones. His numerous episodic television credits include Wolf Pack, E.R., JAG, and The Middleman. He provided the voice of Peter Pan in the Disney animated feature Return To Never Land and still does the voice for Disney today.A native of Louisiana, Weaver studied in New York City, Oxford University, and graduated from UCLA with a degree in English Literature and a minor in Political Science. He lives in Los Angeles where he works as a Director, Producer, Screenwriter, Actor, and Distributor through his company Secret Identity Pictures.Spider-Man: Brand New Day is getting tantalizingly close to production ahead of its planned release date of July 31, 2026. Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings director Destin Daniel Cretton will helm the upcoming sequel, replacing Jon Watts, who worked on all three of the previous Spider-Man films. Brand New Day is set to kick off Tom Holland's second trilogy of Marvel Cinematic Universe films, opening a new chapter for his iteration of Peter Parker after the landmark events of No Way Home.Though Holland's fourth Spider-Man film is still early in its development, rumors are already spreading about what audiences should expect and who may appear therein. The latest reports for Spider-Man: Brand New Day suggest that the film will feature a packed cast, including at least three major villains from the comics. While fans may shudder at the idea of Brand New Day being an overstuffed mess like The Amazing Spider-Man 2 or Spider-Man 3, I think there is a common denominator between these characters that hints at the upcoming film's intriguing story.Anyone who has been paying attention to the recent rumors and reports about Spider-Man: Brand New Day knows that the film is expected to include an overabundance of Spider-Man villains. While there has been no official confirmation of which antagonists will appear in the movie, various insiders have reported that characters like Scorpion, Tombstone, Mister Negative, Black Cat, and Tarantula could all show up to battle Spider-Man in his next cinematic outing. For many Spider-Man fans, these rumors could evoke bad memories of past franchises.Both the Sam Raimi Trilogy and Marc Webb's Amazing Spider-Man made a similar mistake in their final films, including far too many characters (particularly villains) for a movie. Spider-Man 3 featured a trio of villains, including Venom, New Goblin, and Sandman.Masters of the Universe Gets RebootedAlong with Galitzine as He-Man, the movie also stars Camila Mendes as Teela, Jared Leto as Skeletor, Alison Brie as Evil-Lyn, Idris Elba as Man-At-Arms, Sam C. Wilson as Trap Jaw, Morena Baccarin as the Sorceress, James Purefoy as King Randor, Charlotte Riley as Queen Marlena Glenn, and Sasheer Zamata as Suzie. Travis Knight is directing with a screenplay by Chris Butler.Return to Arlen With the King of the Hill RevivalThe synopsis reads, "After years working a propane job in Saudi Arabia to earn their retirement nest egg, Hank and Peggy Hill return to a changed Arlen, Texas to reconnect with old friends Dale, Boomhauer and Bill. Meanwhile, Bobby is living his dream as a chef in Dallas and enjoying his 20s with his former classmates Connie, Joseph and Chane."The synopsis of the reboot has shared more details about what's been happening with the Hill family since fans last saw them in the original show. Surprisingly, Hank had taken up a job in Saudia Arabia, taking him away from Arlen for many years before his eventual return to his old home. Meanwhile, Bobby is now working as a professional chef, a nod to how the original show explored the character's passion and talent for cooking.How to train dragonThe synopsis reads, "After years working a propane job in Saudi Arabia to earn their retirement nest egg, Hank and Peggy Hill return to a changed Arlen, Texas to reconnect with old friends Dale, Boomhauer and Bill. Meanwhile, Bobby is living his dream as a chef in Dallas and enjoying his 20s with his former classmates Connie, Joseph and Chane."As studios continued to bank on remakes, reboots, and revivals, the decision to turn beloved animations into live-action has proven mostly profitable. How to Train Your Dragon marks the latest example, just weeks after Disney's Lilo & Stitch hit. Per Deadline, How to Train Your Dragon is off to a great start, debuting with an $83.7 million opening week, the highest in the franchise so far.The How to Train Your Dragon animated trilogy was a big commercial hit. Overall, it grossed $1.63 billion worldwide at the box office against a joint budget of $439 million (via

Workplace stress has a way of creeping in until it feels normal, leaving leaders drained and stuck in survival mode. When exhaustion takes over, decision-making suffers, motivation fades, and even the best opportunities can slip by unnoticed. It's not always the workload itself that holds someone back, but the habits and mindset that shape how they handle it. The real challenge isn't just keeping up—it's figuring out what needs to change before burnout makes the choice for them. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ETB0JCgGBJY Bernadette Boas is an executive coach, trainer, and author focused on leadership and team performance.

On episode 692 of the 40+ Fitness Podcast, Coach Allan invites us to dig deep and ask ourselves two vital questions:  Who are you? Who will you be?  Sharing personal stories—like the life-changing phone call with his daughter and powerful moments from his own health journey—Allan explores the importance of living up to who we're truly meant to be, rather than settling for the life we've drifted into. You'll hear how a short, focused period of effort can drastically change the course of your life, why vision matters for both the immediate and the distant future, and how real-life scenarios highlight what's truly at stake when it comes to your health. Plus, Allan introduces his new Fit for Task Bootcamp, designed to help you take those first critical steps toward reclaiming your health and unlocking your full potential.

Ber is a independent music artist originally from Minnesota. Her parents had her in music programs from a young age and by the time she was in high school she was playing cover songs on her guitar at the open mic nights at the local Irish pub. After graduating she took a gap year and found herself in Norway learning about music, but also about life. Shortly after she was studying music at a university in the UK with dreams of becoming a songwriter. When her visa expired she decided to leave everything behind and move to Minneapolis and started writing songs while living in her uncle's basement. With her only friends in the music world being back in the UK, she spent most of her time writing songs with people over Zoom calls either early in the morning or late at night. It was one of those songs that ended up changing her life forever. After her song Meant To Be that she wrote and recorded with her friend Charlie Oriain went viral on TikTok opportunities opened up for her in a big way. In fact, her first ever show was performing at the iconic SXSW festival in Austin, TX. Shortly after she was asked to open for Tom Odell for his "the monsters tour" and found herself performing for thousands of new fans every night. Since then she has headlined her own tours around the world, but one thing hasn't changed. She's still just making music with her friends. In this episode we discuss studying music in Europe, the Minnesota music scene, befriending her favorite band, exploring different genre's of music, finding ways to laugh through the pain, getting signed to a record label, touring the world performing music, the ebbs and flows of being a full time musician, performing a sold out show at First Ave, her friendship with fellow Minnesota music artist Landon Conrath and much more.

2023 was a banner year for Ezra Collective, making them the first-ever jazz artist to land the coveted Mercury Music Prize, for their album Where I’m Meant To Be, AND they brought down the house when they made their debut on MBE. The prolific group isn’t wasting time and are set to release their third album Dance, No One’s Watching in late September.  Written while on tour in 2023, the album is an ode to the dance floors they experienced and ties in with some of the members’ roots in church. Drummer and bandleader Femi Koleoso notes, “Myself, Ife, and TJ all grew up in church, and it played a massive role in how we view the purpose of dancing. Dancing is bigger than just the club space. Dancing is a community thing, dancing is a spiritual thing, and ‘God Gave Me Feet For Dancing’ is like a window into that element of Ezra Collective for the five of us.”

The Book Leads – Episode 75: Angelic Lovestrong & The Secret by Rhonda Byrne As Founder and CEO of Lady Powerhouse Solutions, and co-host of the Fempreneur True Confessions Podcast, Angelic is diving into all-things-entrepreneurship and building others up. Her wide-ranging experiences and career moves have contributed to where she is today -- helping her clients get things done in their own businesses through a suite of professional services. Building upon that mindset of getting things done, in this episode she shares her take on and experience with the book, The Secret. She speaks to what she's learned from the book and incorporated into her own life, manifesting what it is she wants to happen. Desires don't just materialize into existence. Preparation and planning go a long way in making things happen. A lot of times, though, manifesting is a matter of just...getting...started. "Success occurs when opportunity meets preparation" by Zig Ziglar. CONVERSATION HIGHLIGHTS “No more working for others, making everyone else awesome. It's time for me and what I am called to do.” The Itty Bitty Shitty Committee in your head Facades – eventually people will come through the door and see the real "Anything you can do I can do better" is not about being full of yourself MENTIONED OR APPLICABLE EPISODES Frequency: The Power of Personal Vibration by Penney Peirce Manifest: 7 Steps to Living Your Best Life by Roxie Nafousi Atomic Habits: An Easy & Proven Way to Build Good Habits & Break Bad Ones by James Clear MENTIONED OR APPLICABLE BOOKS Episode 11: Jessica Mand & Frequency: The Power of Personal Vibration Episode 48: Edie Clarke & (1) Hello Fears: Crush Your Comfort Zone and Become Who You're Meant To Be by Michelle Poler; (2) Practical Law of Attraction: Align Yourself with the Manifesting Conditions and Successfully Attract Your Desires by Victoria Gallagher. Episode 76: Cindy Gersch & Manifest:7 Steps to Living Your Best Life by Roxie Nafousi The MAIN QUESTION underlying my conversation with Angelic is, c About Angelic Angelic started working when she was 16. She's worked in restaurants, a big city PR Firm, web design, human resources, quality control, major fundraising, and opened and closed her own retail brick and mortar. No matter the industry, she's been creating solid infrastructure for businesses since 1991. Then she decided, “No more working for others, making everyone else awesome. It's time for me and what I am called to do.” It was time for a bigger leap. She's created a business allowing her the power and freedom to choose who to serve and how. Lady Powerhouse Solutions supports women-powered initiatives that honor a calling and act with purpose to achieve their vision. I was introduced to Angelic by video producer and YouTube Strategist Edie Clarke, whom I had a conversation with in Episode 48 to cover: (1) Hello Fears: Crush Your Comfort Zone and Become Who You're Meant To Be by Michelle Poler; and (2) Practical Law of Attraction: Align Yourself with the Manifesting Conditions and Successfully Attract Your Desires by Victoria Gallagher.

Today on Transcendent Leadership, I share my surprising experience from the Mindvalley event A-Fest, which took place in Colombia earlier this month!  We will dive into the transformational lessons that I learned as I was immersed into an event containing over 300+ international leaders, business, and personal development experts. Spoiler alert- uncomfortable edges were met! I went into the event with certain desires, and subconscious expectations for what I wanted to get out of it. I certainly did not get what I asked for, but instead, got messages of deep guidance that upon reflection was what I truly needed on the path to my deepest desires. Together we will reflect on the most impactful personal and business lessons that I accumulated during this experience! Join me to learn how to integrate these lessons, so you can make long-lasting transformations and embody the transcendent leader within.   Download my Spiritual Leadership Workbook for practices & rituals to help you amplify your voice & spiritual purpose: https://www.carissajohnsen.com/leadershipworkbook   Watch the LIVE video broadcast of today's episode www.youtube.com/@carissajohnsen www.facebook.com/carissajohnseninc   Connect with Carissa CarissaJohnsen.com www.instagram.com/carissajohnsen Key Takeaways My Experience At Mindvalley [1:30] Going Beyond Duality [5:45] Experience Identity Ego Death [8:30] Showing Up in The Small Moments [12:00]  Witness Your Activation  [14:55] You Are Exactly Where You're Meant To Be [18:00] Receiving What You Need, Not What You Want [19:30] Allow Spirit to Move Through You [25:45] Creating Time For Integration [28:45] Memorable Quotes “We often have expectations about how things are supposed to go. It's either gonna be good or bad. I'm gonna be on or off, and this dualistic thinking is really limiting our full spectrum experience.” [5:52] -Carissa Johnsen “Transformation without integration will lead you to frustration, and it will lead you to: I need more events, I need more books, I need more plant medicine, I need more, more, more. You become addicted, because you think it's the experience that is transforming you, when really it's the integration of the experience that actually leads to long-lasting effects.” [31:45] -Carissa Johnsen

The Book Leads – Episode 48: Edie Clarke &… Hello Fears: Crush Your Comfort Zone and Become Who You're Meant To Be by Michelle Poler Practical Law of Attraction: Align Yourself with the Manifesting Conditions and Successfully Attract Your Desires by Victoria Gallagher I recently sat down with Edie, a Remote Video Producer & YouTube Strategist, to discuss two books which have impacted her life. Edie's path began in studying and obsessing over the details and structure of educational TV shows as a young girl growing up in the U.S. Virgin Islands. It's passion which, building off of that childhood fascination, continues today as she helps clients understand, craft, and reflect their own story on video by harnessing the power of YouTube. But that path was shaken by self-doubt and imposter syndrome. Edie shares that, during that period, she found these books, just at the right time, to help her step through fear and manifest what she wanted to deliver for herself and, therefore, for her clients. Fear can do most of us in. It paralyzes us at the core before we're able to tap into what we're really about and deliver that quality and value to our community, whether it be to our personal or business community. Hello, Fears helped Edie work through those self-imposed obstacles. Once we get beyond fear, what are we going to do with what we want for ourselves – our ideas, passions, dreams, and hopes? Navigating and overcoming the negative is one thing; designing and building the positive is yet another. So, once we overcome our fears, how are we going to design what we want to see happen? How will we manifest those visions? Edie covers both those areas in this conversation as it pertains to her journey. Episode Highlights · Another great story about how strongly some people know their passion early in life but spend part of their career ignoring the voice that keeps calling them back to that original love. · The power of detachment – knowing you did the best that you could in your craft and work, and letting go, not becoming crippled by wondering what people are going to draw from your effort. · “Everything happens for a reason, and it happens at the time that you need it, and you see it to do it when it's right for you.” The MAIN QUESTION underlying my conversation with Edie is, What has fear kept you from accomplishing, and how are you going to get out there, beyond it, to make them happen anyway? Edie's Bio Edie Clarke is a highly experienced and knowledgeable remote video producer and YouTube strategist who is dedicated to helping service-based entrepreneurs leverage the power of video to enhance their online presence and achieve their business goals. Through her expertise in video production, she empowers entrepreneurs to create effective YouTube videos that showcase their knowledge and expertise in their field, attract new customers, and build a loyal following.

In addition to her technical expertise, Edie is also a skilled strategist who understands the nuances of YouTube and how to use it effectively to reach a target audience. She helps her clients to develop content that is tailored to their specific niche and optimized for the platform, ensuring that their videos are seen by the people who are most likely to be interested in their services.

Ask one of his countless fans – or even one of his peers, and they will tell you that Sammy Kershaw definitely qualifies as a Country Music original. In a day and age where individuality isn't something that is sought out as much as before, when you hear a Sammy Kershaw song about heartbreak, love, or good times – you know who it is. You don't have to be told. And, in a career that has seen some amazing highs over the past thirty-five years, the best – as they say – is yet to come.Growing up in Kaplan, Louisiana, Kershaw was enthralled with the masters at an early age – names like Conway Twitty, Mel Street, and George Jones. In fact, as a teenager, Kershaw had developed such a reputation for his vocals – even then – that he was often called upon to open for those acts, and others like them. Jones was so impressed with Sammy that he frequently used him on his shows whenever he was playing in the region.Of all the artists that Kershaw has worked with over the years, it very well might be Jones that left the most impact. From the moment that he released his debut single for Mercury Records, “Cadillac Style,” critics and fans all made the comparison. Rather than run from them, Kershaw embraced them. After all, that stone Country sound was what Sammy Kershaw was all about – and that's what he was going to give his fans! “Cadillac Style” made it all the way to No. 3 on the Billboard charts, and from there (to quote Jones), the race was on! Follow-ups such as “Don't Go Near The Water” and “I Can't Reach Her Anymore” established him as one of the finest traditional artists of his time, while records like “Yard Sale” showed that haunting Jones influence was very much a part of everything he is about.In 1993, Sammy Kershaw topped the singles chart for the first time with “She Don't Know She's Beautiful,” which has become one of the most-played records at Country Radio over the past two decades. Albums such as Don't Go Near The Water and Haunted Heart were both certified as million-sellers by the RIAA, and only continued to add to his stature. The hits kept coming on the airwaves, as well. He added to his resume such classics as “I Can't Reach Her Anymore,” “Meant To Be,” his cover of The Amazing Rhythm Aces' “Third Rate Romance,” and 1998's “Love Of My Life,” which cemented his reputation as a balladeer.Kershaw can be found out on the road – both on his own as well as part of the successful Roots & Boots tour with Collin Raye and Aaron Tippin. The three continue to bring their signature sounds to the fans year-after-year all over North America. But, Sammy Kershaw is not resting on his laurels – though he very well could. His 2014 George Jones tribute disc Do You Know Me was his highest-charting project in fifteen years, and has only whetted the appetites of his fans for more recordings. Afterwards, he completed a brand new album for Cleopatra Records that industry insiders are saying is one of the best releases he has ever done. He has also developed quite a strong social fan base via Facebook and Twitter, having done so in an organic fashion – very much one on one, the way he's always preferred to do it! And, if that's not enough, Kershaw is putting the finishing touches on his long-awaited autobiography – which promises to be as juicy as a bowl of the gumbo he loves to prepare in his Louisiana home!So, make no mistake about it. The past has been a great, long-winding road of highs and lows for Sammy Kershaw, but to quote one of his past singles, the goal isn't to rest on those accomplishments, but to be “Better Than I Used To Be.”This episode is sponsored by www.betterhelp.com/TheBarn and presented to you by The Barn Media Group.

“Alignment is really the congruence of being yourself, the way you think, and connecting with your driver, who you are, who you want to be,” explains Hortense le Gentil, global executive leadership coach and author of Aligned: Connecting Your True Self With The Leader You're Meant To Be. Today, Hortense shares why being in alignment with your true self is so important for leading with authenticity.  To truly lead with authenticity, you must really get clear on your values and your ‘why' or your driving force. Leaders often think they are supposed to have all the answers and be somehow greater than human, but that is simply not possible. It takes courage to lead instead from a place of vulnerability and empathy. Nowadays, people connect better with leaders who are more human and who foster an environment where it is okay for everyone to be themselves.  In order for leaders to create authentic change, they must first lead from a place of authenticity and be willing to be vulnerable. Authentic leaders accept the limitations of being human and lead instead from a place of alignment with their own values and goals.  Quotes: “You have to be aligned if you want to be authentic.” (4:17-4:21 | Hortense)  “Alignment is really the congruence of being yourself, the way you think, and connecting with your driver, who you are, who you want to be.” (9:48-9:58 | Hortense) “Take the time to rethink everything we were told and that doesn't work anymore today.” (12:09-12:15 | Hortense) “Can I have any impact on what's happened now? If the answer is no, why would you take your energy and your time thinking or doing what you're doing?” (17:18-17:31 | Hortense) “Be sure you write your story, and not the story of someone else.” (23:21-23:25 | Hortense) Links: Mentioned in this episode: Learn more about Mike Horne on Linkedin Email Mike at mike@mike-horne.com Find more about Leading People and Culture with Authenticity   Learn more about Hortense le Gentil: Website: hortenselegentil.com   Podcast production and show notes provided by HiveCast.fm

[00:00:00] Bill Hendricks: Ralph was just an amazing person. Any rate I went through the process and when I got to the feedback session, which is like the reveal okay here's your giftedness. It was as if I'd been in a pitch-black room my whole life, bumping into the wall, falling over, furniture getting hurt, and somebody just reached over and flipped the light switch on.  And very quickly I began to see all kinds of things that I'm like, oh my gosh, now I understand what it is I'm trying to do. [00:00:28] Tommy Thomas: My guests today are my good friends, Bev Hendricks Godby, and her brother Bill Hendricks. They work together at The Giftedness Center in Dallas. Bill holds degrees from Harvard University, Boston University, and Dallas Theological Seminary. He's the author or the co-author of 22 books, including The Person Called You, Why You're Here, Why You Matter, and What You Should Do with Your Life, and his most recent book, which he co-authored with Bev - So How do I Parent this Child - Discovering the Wisdom and Wonder of Who Your Child was Meant To Be? Bev has degrees from Wheaton College and the University of Texas at Dallas, a former educator and audiologist. She's particularly attuned to how the giftedness of her clients expresses itself in the whole of their life, narrative, and relationships. [00:01:24] Tommy Thomas: Bill and Bev have made a great impact on the corporate and nonprofit sectors as they've advised people, ranging from high school and college students to corporate and nonprofit executives on how to be their best by understanding their individual giftedness, and as Max Lucado put it on his book on giftedness, How to Live in Your Sweet Spot. I've known Bill and Bev for many years. A trip to the Dallas Metroplex isn't complete without sharing a meal. We've shared meals at Papa Do's Seafood Kitchen and Papasitas Cantina, and we've also had a couple of memorable meals at Bev and her husband, Dale's home. So Bev and Bill, welcome the NextGen Nonprofit Leadership [00:02:06] Bill Hendricks: Thank you, Tommy. Great to be with you. [00:02:08] Bev Godby: It's wonderful to be here. [00:02:11] Tommy Thomas: Bev, when I was undergraduate at Auburn, I was well known to the students at speech therapy and audiology. I have a conduction loss in my right ear. And once word got out that I was a will and Guinea pig, I was a regular guest at the Speech and Hearing Lab, I guess it didn't hurt too much that most of the students were attractive co-eds back then, [00:02:33] Bev Godby: I love hearing that. [00:02:34] Tommy Thomas: Before we jump too deep into this discussion about giftedness, I'd like to go a little bit to your childhood we'll ask both of you these questions and you can respond, you can figure who goes first. But yeah, going back to some experiences that that you think contributed to helping you become the person you are today. [00:02:51] Bev Godby: One I'll go first on that one. I found a through line that kind of has gone through my whole story from the very beginning that I remember up until now, and it all began to come together. At Wheaton College. So I would say making a decision to go to Wheaton was probably an inflection point that just really took my life forward. I had always wanted to be a teacher, so I knew that just probably who knows, maybe wanting to do what my dad did as much as I understood it. But he was the one that always said, Bev, you should go to Wheaton. And he said it as my dad only could. That's not a suggestion, but you really need to chase that one down. When I got into Wheaton, which I was thrilled. I made that decision to go there. And I think that now when I look at it back at it, I think of that verse in second Timothy that says, guard the good deposit that was entrusted to you. And I just think that was a place where so much good deposit I was the beneficiary of. And I just see so much that flows out of, again, just. Opportunity to be in that place with the professors that I had. And the real, the thing that really stands out to me is that I think it unleashed for me, or at least introduced to me the power of story. So this is very interesting to me that this is what I'm doing with my life. it was about the content I was giving them, but it was being more immersed in the whole idea of who this person is Because from, again, from early years, I always wanted to be a teacher, but the teaching part was really about the story of each person for me. Yes, it was about the content I was giving them, but it was being more immersed in the whole idea of who this person is. So that's been all through my life, but I feel like that at Wheaton, I really got some tools to do that well. And the rest, was just man plans this way. God directs his steps. [00:05:03] Tommy Thomas: What about you, Bill? [00:05:03] Bill Hendricks: Tommy, I was smart enough to be born last. And that made all the difference because when you're the youngest you have the benefit of watching your older siblings make mistakes and then learn from them and not have to make those same mistakes in many cases. I made plenty of mistakes nonetheless, but there's also, I guess what I'd say now, I'm a I'm a parent of three grown daughters when you're the youngest of four, it's like your older siblings wear down your parents over time so that things go a little easier for you, if I could put it that way. And I think the other thing about being the youngest was by the time I was getting up into my middle school years obviously as Bev has mentioned, our dad was an educator, so he put a huge emphasis on education. And in fact, all four of us children have at least one master's degree and some more than one. Education was always a big deal, but they didn't have a lot of money, so it's not everybody went to private schools until my seventh-grade year, a family in our church had their son in a private boys school in Dallas, and they really encouraged my folks to consider putting me in this school. And of course we thought there's no way we're gonna be able to afford that. But nonetheless, I went over, took some tests one day. found out that this school wanted me, and next thing we know, there's scholarships. And so if Wheaton was a turning point for Bev St. Mark's, which was the name of that school, was a turning point for me. St. Marks was the best educational experience of my life. And it opened  the door, ultimately to the Ivy League and many other opportunities. [00:06:32] Bill Hendricks: That was the best educational experience of my life. And it opened up the door, ultimately to the Ivy League and many other opportunities. And and so I've been richly blessed by having lots and lots of teachers, mentors, people pour into me. And that's why right next to Giftedness is of a life message right there. [00:06:53] Bill Hendricks: Next to it is mentoring believes so much in the importance of mentors. [00:06:58] Tommy Thomas: So you've both mentioned your dad and your mom. what was the most valuable life lesson you learned from your parents? [00:07:06] Bev Godby: I would say that, For sure. My dad always said, be a person of your word. And I always believed watching him that those were his words, but just being able to watch the man all the time. It was even more fleshed out as character matters. Who you are when no one's watching you will determine the arc of your story. And I saw him actually do that in real life. And so that's always been really important to me to be a person of my word. , feel that he really displayed humility. He was a man that certain groups of people would get real excited about and always, they'd meet me, they'd always go, oh, you're dad. And they'd say amazing things about him. But he, when I would tell him that, he would go bezels, they just don't know me like you and I know me. . And it was just so forever humility has been such a key trait that I look for in people and really tr treasure for myself. Not that I think I can claim that, but I'd look for that. [00:08:19] Bev Godby: And I think that's at the heart of everything that I wanna be. [00:08:23] Bill Hendricks: I like to think that we're literally standing on our dead's shoulders and building on his legacy in this whole giftedness. Work that we do not least of which, because our dad was in a perfect fit with his giftedness. Our dad was in a perfect fit with his giftedness.  The man was born to teach, and he became a legendary teacher, an iconic figure as a teacher. The man was born to teach and he became a legendary teacher, an iconic figure as a teacher. I happen to work at the school that he, I have a role at the school that he taught at for 60 years. And by the day I get people mention his name and hallowed voice and but they all have memories of him. And he used to say, I love to teach. I lived to teach why I'd teach, whether or not they paid me to teach. And it was really true because we watched him teach even when he didn't get paid for it. And I think Bec and he, as part of that, he had a gift for seeing the giftedness of other people. And he would call it out. He would affirm what their strengths were and challenge them to lean into and live into those strengths and do something with them. And so now we do a very formalized form of giftedness discovery. But it's really continuing on that legacy that that he had of identifying people's strengths and we just love what we do. [00:09:39] Tommy Thomas: I interviewed Dr. Linda Livingstone, the president down at Baylor a couple weeks ago, and her dad was a prominent basketball coach in the state of Oklahoma. And so I asked her, did you know your dad was was famous? And she said probably not really, not in the early days anyway. I didn't know your dad personally, but I've sat under his teaching a lot. What was it like to grow up in the household of somebody that at least some of us thought was famous? [00:10:04] Bev Godby: There was always good and bad of course, in that, right? The weird part was that in certain circles you'd go particularly church related kind of things, and he was the rockstar. Like honestly, people would talk about him like. But then you'd go to school or you'd go just wherever else and no one's ever heard of them. So there was that disconnect a little bit. We, I feel, especially as a girl because I didn't get to go to the seminary seminaries in those days, Dallas Seminary in particular was only for men. I didn't really ever see him teach. The only time that we would really watch him do what he did was when we would go to Fort Worth. He had a church there that he used to pastor, and they'd invite him back all the time and we'd, and it was like watching someone on stage that is not your father. Like it was a not me kind of experience, but I loved it. And we saw what people enjoyed about him. But there was a lot of the, son of daughter of thing that went on. . What was great, one of the great things about Wheaton was almost everybody. There was the son or daughter of somebody, Billy Graham, the real luminaries in the Christian world. So no one cared about that. And I loved that I could just be me, be who I was. But it def it definitely was a mixed bag. Tommy I'll, I'll not lie about that, but in the end, I think it opened a lot of doors for me going forward, and I'll always be so grateful to him. On the 20th is gonna be the 10th year since he's passed away. And I think more and more I appreciate that legacy that I was handed. [00:11:48] Tommy Thomas: What about you, bill, as being the baby brother? [00:11:50] Bill Hendricks: It's a tremendous advantage to have a father that people just naturally think well of. I can't imagine what people do. And I know there's too many of them, who, whose father does not have a good reputation and then they have to live that down. Yeah, there's been pressure and expectations at times to live up to our dad's reputation. But, and as I get older, I realize that's not all, not altogether bad. It can be if you let it overwhelm your life and your identity. But, I after enough years of therapy, I think I of worked that one through. But it's a tremendous honor to, as I say, to have people mention one's father's name and see in their eyes the respect, the admiration, the love that they have had for him and. . All in all it's a privilege. It's it then just wants me to do and be the best I can be in what God's called me to in my twenties. [00:12:48] Tommy Thomas:  I had every tape that your dad ever did on communications, and I would listen to those tapes on communication and. There are just have such great memories of Dr. Hendricks. Bill you mentioned about teaching when they didn't pay him I'm sure he said this in a lot of his tapes, but he says, “they pay me to do this They don't pay me much, but they pay me to do this” . Just, great memories there. When I was in my early thirties, I was struggling with my career, and I read an article by RC Sproul where he talked about this thing called giftedness or understanding one's uniqueness.  I got some career counseling, and it literally changed my life. Fast forward to 1996 and our firm had been asked to submit a proposal to conduct the search for Bob Sieple'ssuccessor at World Vision US.   I remember my colleague Robert Stevenson and I, we flew up to Chicago at O'Hare to meet with the search committee and one of the members of the search committee she says are you the guys that work with Arthur Miller? And we said, yeah we, yeah, we do. And so she went on to say about, she had read his book, the Truth About You, and told the story of how she and two of colleagues had gotten together to do business together because they were all very good at what they did in the field of communications. When they got together, it was a train wreck. They just didn't work together well. And so one of 'em had read the book The Truth About You, and they called Mr. Miller in, and he gave them a session and told 'em he could have told them in the beginning they weren't gonna work well together because they were all so different. And they were bound to clash. And so they busted up their company, went back to their other jobs and remained fast friends.  They were thankful for Mr. Miller's counsel. So my guess my question is, when did the two of you first become aware of this thing called giftedness? And how did you begin to talk about it as such? When did the two of you first become aware of this thing called giftedness? And how did you begin to talk about it as such? [00:14:34] Bill Hendricks: guess I, I should begin that story. When I was 30 years old, I had finished my second master's degree and about a week after graduation, my wife said to me, in no uncertain terms, listen I'm tired of putting you through school. I wanna start a family and stay home with children.  You need to get out there and make some money. And in parliamentary terms we call that calling the question like, you gotta make a decision. And the problem is, I didn't really know what I should do. And I was scared about it and people are saying to me, oh, but Bill you went to Harvard, you have two master's degrees, you can do anything you want. And I'm like they may be, but I don't know what I want to do. And it was about that time that somebody introduced me to Ralph Matson, who was a colleague of Art Miller's. And I was very skeptical of the process because I'd been through a career guidance clinic in Boston and spent three and a half days and had a lot of test results back. But I still didn't know what to do with my life. But this was different because this was story-based. And also Ralph was just a amazing person. Any rate I went through the process and when I got to the feedback session, which is like the reveal okay here's your giftedness. It was as if I'd been in a pitch-black room my whole life, bumping into the wall, falling over, furniture getting hurt, and somebody just reached over and flipped the light switch on. And very quickly I began to see all kinds of things that I'm like, oh my gosh, now I understand what it is I'm trying to do. And I began to make choices on the basis of that career-wise that led me to better and better fit. And about 10 years into it I, a lot of that was writing projects, Tommy, and you mentioned Art Miller in his book, the Truth About You, he wanted to get another book on giftedness done. Art was a very brilliant man, but he was not a writer. And so he finally let me help him put a manuscript together on this other book, and it was working on that project that I realized. How taken I was with this whole phenomenon of giftedness and just decided to reinvent my consulting practice around it. So that's what I've been doing for the last 25, going on 30 years and about I don't know maybe five years into it, something like that. I was actually looking to add some people to the team and I'll let Bev pick it up from there cuz that's about the time she came aboard. [00:16:57] Bev Godby:  Maybe 23 years or whatever ago he was looking to add bandwidth. He had a particular application he wanted to do and so he said he was put out a call, like he was gonna hire some people. There must have been 20 people in the room that came for that informational meeting. And he decided, I guess he looked at a lot of factors, but of course, before he was gonna hire anybody, they were gonna go through giftedness.  You have to drink the Kool-Aid if you're gonna talk about it. So it was then that I got to go through the process myself. And this is honestly true. I just happened to be very uncommonly. Gifted to do the work that Bill had done, and I don't think I had any real clue about what he did before, except that I was interested when he had put out this call for people to work for him. I thought - that sounds really interesting to me. Now I know why. But it was a very, it's been a privilege. There were about five people at that time that was working for Bill, and I always think I'm the one that stayed, so now it's me and Bill, bill and I, and it works great because we each have a very different kind of giftedness, but we both share one piece, and that's something that we call impact. So we're trying to make a difference.  We have that shared vision for what this work is. We both have our own practice, but we get together for projects. Right now we're doing a couple putting giftedness in the, in two schools that are interested in, in, making this into a curriculum for their students and their teachers and parents. So that's been really fun. I can't think of anything that I have enjoyed more in my life. It just feels like I was always meant to do this work. Sometimes people ask me, don't you ever get tired of interviewing people and listening to their stories? And I'm about as incredulous as my father was when I was asked to speak to a faculty for a back-to-school retreat. And they said, the title of the retreat was going to be, how do we keep from making this just another year? And I thought I think I'll ask my dad about that because, , he's been doing this now for 57 years at the seminary. So if anyone, is just going through the motions, it would be him. But I knew he wasn't. So I went and talked to him about that and he just looked incredulous when I said, even posed that question to him, and he goes, how in the world could that be just the same? Nothing's the same. You got all new people in the room, and you just got so energized. And he goes and they got new questions, and they interact with the material so differently. And it just excites me to go and do every year because it could never be like the year before. And so it's, that is really what this work is like for me is every ti every day is a new person. So it couldn't better.   [00:20:11] Tommy Thomas: Let me give you a quote by Warren Bennis and I'm gonna date myself here cause Warren Bennis was writing back when I was in graduate school. This is an older quote, but I think it rings true. Too many companies believe people are interchangeable, truly gifted people, never are. They have unique talents. Such people cannot be forced into roles they're not suited for, nor should they be. Effective leaders allow great people to do the work they were born to do. [00:20:39] Bill Hendricks:  I agree with that a thousand percent. He didn't use the word giftedness, but when he uses the word doing what they were born to do, that's about the simplest definition of giftedness I'm aware of. Giftedness is basically what you're born to do. Everybody's born to do something for one person. They're born to solve a problem, never met a problem they didn't wanna solve somebody else. They're born to understand something at a very deep level. Somebody else, they're born to get people to respond to them and influence their behavior. We could go on and on all day about all the different forms of giftedness. There are, there's actually as many forms of giftedness as there are people, because every person really is unique. And if you put a person in a slot where they do what they're born to do, they work with tremendous energy and motivation, they need a whole lot less management. They just simply thrive and they're usually highly productive. And Bennis spot on there, in his assessment. [00:21:40] Tommy Thomas: Bev, do you have anything to add there? Bev Godby: I think that whenever you are talking to a person that is talking about their giftedness, a light goes on in their eyes. They just get excited telling you about it. And one, one of the reasons that makes the way that we get to get our data, because people come to us because something's not working in their life, usually it's work related. And so what we do is go back to their highlights tape. I call it, we have a, we're watching them in real life, doing what they've done all their life. They get about eight stories to us, tell us the details of it. And this very discreet pattern shows up. It is how they do what they do every time they're motivated. And we're, we are living in a time right now where there's a lot of emphasis on motivation.  There's all kinds of tests out there. Myers Briggs. Strength Finders, the new one now that's pretty popular with young people is Enneagram.. And these are all ways to use that same information, but they're first of all getting their information from the person. What do they like, what do they prefer? So that the test is as good as the person knows themselves. First of all, could they give that information? But secondly it's about comparing you to other people and putting you in a group and giving you a type. And The way that we do it, ours is not by asking people to tell us what they love to do, if they knew that they'd probably be doing a job where they did what they love to do. But we turn it on its head a little bit and we just capture them in the act of enjoying life. So we get to quote, watch them through their words, telling us about a time that they did something they really loved and did well. And what is really great about story is that it reveals us for who we are. So when they would tell eight stories, This very discreet pattern shows up, and there's a lot of pieces in there that the person could not tell us that's true about them. But when we hold up the mirror to them and say this is what you're, the data is telling us they see it a hundred percent. So it has a lot of power, maybe a lot more power than some of those other assessments out there, because it comes right out of their story. They know that we're telling them the truth, and moreover, we're telling them a truth that no one else really knows about them because they live inside their skin. So, they know what we're saying is a hundred percent true. So it gives us a lot of permission to help guide them. I think that's one of the reasons why this job is so satisfying for me, because this is still being a teacher. It's just a different classroom teacher. It's not that, but it's coming alongside of a person and really, Tommy, you're standing on holy ground. They're telling you something that is, they not be. So it's not only true about them, it has power. And I want them to see that, that it has value and that they are made this way on purpose, for purpose. So that's really the joy of the. . [00:25:10] Tommy Thomas: I tell people when we're talking about interviewing them, I, I tell them - as they're asking questions, look for the fire in somebody's eyes. Because when they're talking about something that that really plays into who they are and their strengths, their eyes will light up and they'll be an animation and that part of the interview that, that may not be present if they're just talking about something that they had to do.

TRIGGER WARNING: This episode discusses a traumatic event which may be triggering for some listeners. ***** Everything has a vibration; people, animals, even inanimate objects. And so, too, does forgiveness carry its own energetic frequency. The energy of forgiveness, when offered in full authenticity to someone who's done you wrong, is immensely powerful and can be extremely healing for people who are yearning to move past old wounds and proceed with their lives by telling a different story--not one which erases history or denies any wrongdoing, but one that vanquishes victimhood and makes room for the power that's always been there, as well as for new growth, more strength and wider expansion. As long as you're ready to really and truly forgive. In this episode, Janeen tells a story from childhood of a traumatic assault which has haunted her for years. But, she explains, she's received new guidance for what to do about it. Hear how she recently channeled a message of forgiveness straight from Source, and took it as divine intelligence for what she needed to do in order to finally heal from an event that created repeated triggers 35 years on. She'd never even once considered forgiving her attackers all these years; not until now. Learn how the possibility of forgiveness can open up a new perspective, generate new questions that have never been asked, and create an enormous sense of relief in you, too, if you're grappling with an old hurt that's caused anger, resentment, the label of victimhood, or contempt for others. Get helpful tips on how to process the trauma that lives inside your body, including suggestions for vagus nerve toning, shaking, and prayer. But of course, always consult your physician or mental health practitioner to guide your trauma recovery journey. If you or someone you know has been sexually assaulted, you can call the National Sex Assault Hotline at 1-800-656-4673 for 24-hour support. Thank you for sharing this space today.

In this first, introductory episode of the new show, Janeen shares the transformation the past few months have brought, explaining how studying and experimenting with Human Design has helped her view her life through a new, empowering lens. She shares what it's like being a Human Design Manifestor and how knowing that's her Type has been liberating and validating. She explains how she's working to overcome her shadow, heal old wounds, embrace her inner brat and solve a ton of her life's mysteries that've been nagging her for decades. She gets into the story of her childhood recurring nightmare about her death in a past life, how she's experimented with Tarot and Ouija boards, how she's practicing meditation and learning about epigenetics and more--all topics we'll get into here on future episodes. And she shares insights into how you, too, can start using the system of Human Design to uncover the real you to let your radiance shine bright!

She joins the podcast to talk about her new novel “Part of Your World,” which she describes as an “age gap, social gap romance” about Alexis Montgomery and Daniel Grant, a doctor and carpenter who meet-cute when she's driving through town and her car gets stuck in the mud. Abby shares specific advice with Olivia for aspiring novelists, talks about her bakery business, and shares which network offer to adapt this book for screen that she's already turned down. A Moment With Margaret: Beach reads that are top of the TBR for Margaret include Emily Giffin's “Meant To Be,” (May 31) and “A Botanist's Guide to Parties and Poisons” (June 7) by Kate Khavari. Olivia and Margaret discuss enjoying Jennifer Weiner's new book, “The Summer Place” (May 10).
