In this insightful episode of "Father and Joe," Joe Rockey and Father Boniface Hicks delve into the complex yet enriching journey of cultivating trust and fostering meaningful relationships with ourselves, others, and God. They explore the intricacies of trust—how it's built step-by-step through integrity, dependability, and consistency, and how it's intrinsically linked to vulnerability. The hosts candidly discuss the challenges around rebuilding trust, especially for those who have experienced trauma, and highlight the importance of being open to growth in relationships.Father Boniface provides a profound perspective on how our daily, seemingly simple interactions are rooted in unexpected levels of trust. Whether navigating a complex journey through a foreign market or simply shopping at a local store, trust silently governs many aspects of our lives. Joe emphasizes that understanding trust starts from within, analyzing our past interactions, and being conscious of the behaviors that foster or hinder relational growth.Listeners are invited to envision their relationships as a canvas, where the practice of mental preparation can be as impactful as the actions themselves. Drawing parallels from sports, Joe illustrates how champions attain mastery not only through physical prowess but through mental agility—foreshadowing their moves and understanding their counterparts' strategies. This analogy extends into relational dynamics, where understanding others' preferences can significantly enhance our interactions and emotional bonds.The conversation further deepens into self-reflection's role in improving relational and spiritual lives. It highlights Pope Francis's teachings on losing touch with our hearts due to societal distractions, advocating for a slower pace that allows for introspection. The two hosts reiterate the need for reflecting on questions of identity, purpose, and divine relationship to maintain a more fulfilled and engaged life.Father Boniface and Joe eloquently conclude that just as much—or even more—growth occurs through thoughtful reflection and genuine communication. They underline that life's challenges invite us to continuously learn, adapt, and nurture our relationships spiritually and interpersonally.This episode serves as a compelling reminder that opening our hearts and minds can transform relationships, weaving trust into the very fabric of our lives. By integrating these elements into our daily practices, we not only enrich our connections with others but also create more space for a profound union with God.Tags: Spiritual Direction, Relationship Building, Trust Development, Self-Reflection, God, Faith Journey, Mental Preparation, Personal Growth, Prayer Practice, Relationship Dynamics, Emotional Intelligence, Trust in Relationships, Vulnerability, Integrity, Dependability, Spiritual Growth, Building Trust, Emotional Connection, Mindfulness, Personal Relationships, Communication Skills, Trustworthiness, Self-Awareness, Reflection, Spirituality, Overcoming Trauma, Religious Guidance, Heartfelt Conversations, Everyday Trust, Relationship Skills, Emotional Growth, Connection with God, God's Will, Christian Faith, Relationship Analysis, Spiritual Practices, Church Life, Engaging Faith, God's Teachings, Podcast SeriesHashtags: #FatherAndJoe #SpiritualDirection #Trust #RelationshipBuilding #FaithJourney #SelfReflection #PersonalGrowth #Communication #EmotionalIntelligence #TrustInRelationships #Vulnerability #Integrity #Dependability #SpiritualGrowth #Mindfulness #PrayerPractice #ConnectionWithGod #ChristianFaith #EmotionalConnection #UnderstandingOthers #GodsWill #RelationalDynamics #ReligionAndFaith #HeartfeltConversations #PersonalRelationships #SpiritualPractice #EverydayTrust #RelationshipAnalysis #SelfAwareness #GodsTeachings #FaithAndLife #FaithPodcast #ReflectiveLiving #BuildingTrust #OvercomingTrauma #EmotionalGrowth #EngagingFa

Send us a textThis week, I sit down with my friend and mental preparation expert, Vincent Maltz, to explore a powerful and often misunderstood phenomenon in high-performance sport: how pressure can derail both individuals and teams.When pressure mounts, it can trigger a threat response in the brain, activating neurological and psychological patterns rooted in fear. The result? Fight, flight, or freeze. For individual athletes, it shows up as choking, the yips, or “squeezing the stick.” For teams, it's that haunting feeling when they just don't show up.We dig into the underlying mechanisms behind these moments, and what it takes to build athletes and teams who can face fear, step into it, and perform.It's a fascinating conversation with a brilliant mind. I really enjoyed it—and I think you will too.

Most training plans call for a reduction in mileage before your goal race but if you feel nervous and anxious during this time you're not alone. In fact, there's even a name for the emotional turbulence runners feel during this time and it's called the taper tantrums. If you're tapering for your next marathon right now or will be soon, it's important to remember your body needs this rest and not to panic with extra training. This episode provides a guide to runners resting up for the big day while managing the symptoms of this very athlete-specific ailment. It's completely normal to start to question your fitness at this time but it's important to remember that the taper is a key component of your training. Much like rest days, the taper allows your body to recover and then absorb the fitness you gained from hard weeks or months of training. This non-medical advice for runners will cover questions like: What are the taper tantrums and what are typical symptoms? How should you structure your taper to get the most benefit? What are some ways to manage the symptoms of the taper? What are some things to avoid doing during your taper phase of training? Getting the taper right is just as important as your big long runs if you want to perform well for your goal race. There's no single correct way to taper but there's lots you can do to make sure your body and mind both come out of it feeling fresh.
