Send us a textI'm excited to introduce a Life With Grief guest that does some INCREDIBLE work—and is unlike any other guest we've had on before.Ashley Spence is a motivational speaker, victim advocate, and founder of DNA Justice Project; a non-profit that focuses on educating the public and policy makers on the value of forensic DNA in the criminal justice system.When Ashley was a 19-year-old college student, she was the victim of a brutal home invasion and rape that nearly took her life. She never saw her attacker's face, and it was a cold case for seven years until he was caught through a forensic DNA match.For Ashley, the levels of grief around this are deep, raw, painful and complex, and we dig into all of this in our conversation.She now testifies all over the country to support legislation that will maximize the use of forensic DNA and advanced DNA technology, and she has worked globally to spark conversations on how to come together to put an end to sexual violence.Ashley's story is truly one of incredible bravery, profound healing, and taking inspired actions.TRIGGER WARNING: This episode contains discussions about a home invasion and sexual assault.Connect with Ashley:@ashleyespencednajusticeprojecthttps://www.dnajusticeproject.org/https://www.ashleyespence.com/Learn more about Micro-Moments for Transformation and begin your evolution today: https://lossesbecomegains.com/transformation Learn more about the 14-Day Relief in Your Grief experience and begin feeling more peace and healing: https://lossesbecomegains.com/transformationWork with me: Micro-Moments for Transformation: https://lossesbecomegains.com/transformation 14-Day Relief in Your Grief Challenge: https://lossesbecomegains.com/relief-in-grief Work with me one-on-one: https://lossesbecomegains.com/work-with-tara Connect with me further: Leave a voice note through Speakpipe! https://www.speakpipe.com/LifeWithGrief Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lossesbecomegains/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/lifewithgriefpodcast/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/losses.become.gains Website: https://lossesbecomegains.com/ Shop the LBG Daily Journal: https://lossesbecomegains.com/journal By accessing this Podcast, I acknowledge that the entire contents are the property of Tara Accardo, or used by Tara Accardo with permission.

How small habits create big change. Tiny decisions and habits can transform our lives. Change doesn't have to be fast or big; you start small and build the impact in a healthy, long-lasting way.
It's not always the big ruptures that create distance in a relationship.Sometimes, it's the tiny moments. The micro-misses. The everyday ways we unknowingly make our partner feel unseen, unimportant, or left out.In this episode, Steve and I talk about the slow burn of disconnection—what we call death by a thousand cuts—and how seemingly small behaviours can add up and quietly erode closeness over time.For Steve, it's when we're having a cuddle and the dogs jump in, and I start patting them instead. It might look harmless, but in that moment, he feels like something else just took priority. For me, it's when I'm mid-sentence and he glances at his phone or checks his watch.It sends the message—without words—that what I'm saying doesn't matter as much.We share how these moments land for us, what they actually mean underneath the surface, and how we're learning to own our impact, not just our intention.This isn't about getting it perfect. It's about being conscious of the little ways we disconnect… so we can choose to reconnect, again and again.If you've ever felt brushed off, dismissed, or like you're just not quite landing with your partner—this one will hit home.Big love,Kat & Steve xBuy my book, Authentic - coming home to your true self - AUS, EUR, USACoach with me 1:1 - Book a 20-minute call nowThe Good Life - sign up nowFree Wheel of Life Assessment - take the test nowSunday Meds - live event by the beach, June 22ndWrite into us - let us know what you want to hearwww.katjohn.com.auSupport the show

In this episode of Daily Influence, host Gregg-Brooke Koleno is joined by Dr. Angela Brooks — an educator, leadership coach, and well-being advocate who has dedicated her life's work to helping leaders and organizations thrive from the inside out. Dr. Angela shares her inspiring journey from a naturally empathetic child to an award-winning principal and transformational leader. She unpacks how social and emotional well-being is at the core of authentic, effective leadership and how investing in our own emotional health can create a ripple effect of positive influence in the lives of others. Through powerful stories, including the remarkable transformation of one of her teachers who became Principal of the Year, Dr. Angela demonstrates how personal growth and professional leadership go hand in hand. She also reveals how small, intentional "micro moments" — from chewing bubble gum to sharing ice cream with family — can build resilience, joy, and connection in our fast-paced, often overwhelming world. Listeners will walk away with actionable strategies to: • Prioritize their well-being without adding more to their to-do list. • Embrace vulnerability and authenticity in leadership. • Intentionally create space and grace in their daily routines. • Discover the power of joyful, mindful living as a catalyst for influence. Dr. Angela reminds us that leading others starts with leading ourselves — and that our most profound influence begins in the quiet, intentional moments we create each day.

Episode Summary Success in your freelance business isn't about grand gestures, massive marketing campaigns, or expensive training. It's about the tiny, seemingly insignificant moments you're tempted to skip—the quick LinkedIn post, the follow-up email, the slightly bolder pricing quote. These micro-moments are where real transformation happens. In this episode, we explore how small decisions—often dismissed as trivial—can lead to major breakthroughs in your freelance career. Whether it's landing a high-paying client, securing a game-changing project, or leveling up your pricing, the path to success is built one micro-moment at a time. What You'll Learn in This Episode · Why the most pivotal changes in your business come from micro-moments, not big moves. · Real-life examples of how tiny decisions led to massive breakthroughs. · How to recognize and seize these opportunities in your own freelance career. · Practical steps to train yourself to take action—even when it feels pointless. Key Takeaways 1. Micro-Moments Are the Foundation of Freelance Success The biggest client you land won't come from a massive campaign; it'll likely stem from a quick follow-up email you almost didn't send. The rate increase that changes your business starts with one tiny moment of courage. Your best opportunities often come from the things you're most tempted to dismiss as “too small to matter.” 2. Success Happens in the Small Choices You Make Daily Skipping that quick outreach might mean missing a life-changing opportunity. That extra five minutes tweaking your website copy could be the difference between a lead converting or bouncing. Small habits and micro-decisions compound over time, creating momentum that drives business growth. 3. Stop Waiting for Perfect Conditions — Take Action Now Life will always throw obstacles in your way, but progress doesn't require ideal conditions. Success is built in the moments when you could have said "not now" but chose to act instead. Train yourself to recognize these moments and embrace them as opportunities. Actionable Exercises · Micro-Moment Awareness: At the end of each day, reflect on one small action you took that could lead to something bigger. · The "What the Heck" Rule: Next time you're debating whether to send that follow-up or post that update, just do it. Assume it could be the moment that changes everything. · Tiny Courage Challenge: Quote slightly higher than you normally would. Send the pitch you're nervous about. Take one small but bold action this week. Listener Challenge This week, commit to embracing just one micro-moment you would normally ignore. Take action, then observe what happens. You might just be surprised at the results.
In this episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosts Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton dive into the small, everyday decisions that have major consequences in a first responder's career and life (Amazon Affiliate). Often, it's not the high-profile cases or dramatic calls that define an officer's career—it's the split-second choices, the moments of restraint, the seemingly minor decisions that have lasting effects. Some of these micro-moments lead to career advancement, strong relationships, and self-preservation. Others, however, result in burnout, disciplinary action, or even life-or-death situations. This episode will highlight five key areas where small decisions can have big consequences and how to be intentional about making the right choices. 1. Why Micro-Moments Matter in Law Enforcement First responders make thousands of small decisions daily. Some seem insignificant in the moment but later prove to be pivotal. A single interaction with the public, a moment of restraint, or choosing when to speak up (or stay silent) can impact an officer's reputation, career path, and safety. Understanding the power of small choices helps officers stay in control of their careers instead of leaving things to chance. 2. Five Critical Micro-Moments in a First Responder's Career (With Examples & Remedies) 1. The Decision to Speak or Stay Silent Example: A young officer witnesses a senior officer bending the rules but doesn't report it because they don't want to seem disloyal. Impact: Over time, staying silent normalizes unethical behavior and can lead to major departmental scandals—or personal regret. Remedy: Learn to pick your battles wisely. If something feels wrong, document and report it through the proper channels before it becomes an issue that compromises your integrity. 2. How You Treat the Public—Even on a Bad Day Example: A veteran officer, frustrated with the job, snaps at a citizen during a routine traffic stop. The person records the encounter and posts it online, leading to backlash. Impact: One bad moment can overshadow years of good work. The officer may face disciplinary action or public scrutiny. Remedy: Pause before reacting. If you're frustrated or burned out, find ways to decompress before it affects interactions. 3. The Choice to Take Shortcuts or Follow Procedure Example: An officer is busy and skips some paperwork on an arrest, assuming it won't matter. Months later, the case gets dismissed due to a technicality. Impact: Small procedural lapses can compromise investigations, hurt victims, and damage an officer's credibility. Remedy: Always assume your work will be scrutinized. Even when it seems minor, do things by the book. 4. Small Lifestyle Choices That Affect Career Longevity Example: A first responder consistently skips workouts, eats fast food, and ignores stress management. A decade later, they develop serious health issues that could have been avoided. Impact: Poor health choices lead to early burnout, increased injury risk, and medical retirement. Remedy: Make small, consistent improvements. Exercise regularly, prioritize sleep, and manage stress before it affects job performance. 5. The Decision to Invest in Relationships (Or Let Them Fade) Example: An officer works excessive overtime to provide for their family but misses key moments like birthdays and anniversaries. Over time, their marriage suffers. Impact: Some officers realize too late that career success came at the cost of personal relationships. Remedy: Schedule time for family and friends the same way you schedule work priorities. If you can commit to showing up for the job, commit to showing up for loved ones, too. 3. How to Be More Intentional with Micro-Decisions Ask yourself: “If I keep making this choice daily, where will it lead me in 5 years?” Don't let bad habits build. Small negative patterns turn into major career obstacles. Pause before reacting. A single moment of emotional control can prevent long-term consequences. Seek mentorship. Experienced officers can point out blind spots before they become costly mistakes. 4. Why This Matters Every first responder's career and personal life is built on tiny decisions made daily. Some lead to strong leadership, long-term success, and personal fulfillment. Others create bad habits, career-damaging mistakes, or avoidable stress. By being more intentional about micro-decisions, officers can shape their careers instead of just reacting to circumstances. Listen now to learn how to take control of your small decisions today for long-term success!

Send us a textWe're diving into the concept of disenfranchised grief—the “silent sorrow”, as I sometimes call it. This is grief that's often not openly acknowledged, socially validated or publicly mourned, which makes it especially challenging to navigate.In this conversation we're chatting about various examples of disenfranchised grief that are long overdue for some validation—think: the loss of an ex-partner or estranged family member, unrecognized or invalidated relationships, losses that are considered “less significant” than a death, stigmatized losses, losses of a job or sense of identity, major life transitions, and more.This is truly such an underrated yet incredibly important type of grief to acknowledge, so I'm also offering some insight into how to cope and navigate this. And, as always, giving you some practical coping strategies along the way.My mission with this topic is to validate your experience and loss, and provide you tools, support, and mindset shifts to help you navigate this complex form of grief.

Key Takeaways: *Understanding Church Hurt: Church hurt can arise from personal issues, sins committed by others, and failed leadership. It's important to recognize that while people and communities can fail, Christ remains a steadfast focus. *Navigating Church Hurt: Michelle emphasizes the importance of surrounding oneself with a supportive, biblical community and seeking guidance from scripture during times of hurt. *The Role of Leadership: Leaders should model confession, repentance, and humility, acknowledging their imperfections and striving for restoration within the church community. *Forgiveness and Healing: Forgiveness is a command and does not always mean restored relationships. It requires personal work, often without acknowledgment or change from the other party. *Moving Forward: It's crucial to maintain faith and commitment to God's word, even when church experiences are painful. The journey involves seeking a church community that aligns with biblical truth and provides a place for spiritual growth. *Personal Reflections: Michelle shares her journey of having lost a sense of purpose within her church community and her ongoing pursuit of finding a new church home, highlighting the complexity and emotional layers involved in such transitions. Intro/Blog Post: I'm so appreciative for my guest Michelle Nezat and her courage to talk about what is often termed as church hurt. In the intricate tapestry of human relationships, church communities hold a unique place, often serving as a haven of support, spiritual growth, and community. However, church communities including the leadership are not immune to the imperfections of human nature, and at times, they can become a source of profound hurt. To Michelle's heartbreak she and her husband are in between churches. She shared her very transparent, humble journey and what it's like in their current waiting period of leaning into the Lord to direct and confirm a new church family they can be folded into. Her willingness to look at both sides of the equation was refreshing. Whether it was through the lens of church responsibilities or the responsibilities of the believer she had a fair, biblically informed perspective. As I listened to Michelle, I became aware of the various ways church hurt affects so many aspects of one's spiritual grounding. We looked at what are some of the causes of church hurt such as personal sensitivities, past traumas, and individual mistakes. As human beings, we bring our own emotional baggage into every relationship, including those within a church community. Additionally, failed leadership or sins committed against members can definitely be the most significant contributors to church hurt. Even well-intentioned leaders can fall short in their responsibilities. When they do it can lead to a deep sense of betrayal and hurt because as Michelle states, the leadership is not just someone you like or hope likes you, they are someone you have put your trust in, whom you look up to for examples and modeling of God and His word. The conversation also touched upon the options available to individuals experiencing church hurt. While leaving the church may seem like the immediate solution, Michelle emphasized that leaving might not always lead to healing. Instead, she advocated for seeking greater holiness and aligning one's actions with God's will. This could involve choosing to stay and work through the issues or leaving with a heart open to finding a new community where spiritual growth can continue. The decision ultimately rests on discerning what leads to greater holiness in one's life and seeking the Lord's guidance in the process. Finally, our discussion highlighted the role of forgiveness and the importance of maintaining a focus on Christ. Forgiveness is essential for healing, but it does not always mean restoring broken relationships. It involves letting go of bitterness and entrusting the situation to God. By fixing our eyes on Jesus and embracing how He modeled forgiveness, we can navigate the complexities of church hurt and find peace and purpose. Michelle helps us keep our focus on the fact that the church is the bride of Christ, and where man fails, God himself will reveal His truth. In whatever context we pursue Him in, He will reveal Himself to those who earnestly seek Him. If you're navigating church hurt today, this episode is a must. Michelle will encourage your heart, help you stay on the right path and give you hope for your breakthrough in Christ!

In this episode, we dive into the concept of micro-moments—those brief, intent-driven points when decisions are made or preferences are formed. Moments when your customer is thinking: "I want to know," "I want to go," "I want to do," and "I want to buy." Often associated with consumer behavior, micro-moments play a crucial role in B2B marketing.Micro-moments matter because of the ongoing shift in buyer behaviors. With digital access at our fingertips, decision-makers rely more than ever on real-time, relevant information. Providing content that meets the needs of target personas at these moments is essential. Whether it's through quick-read articles, short video demos, or optimized mobile experiences, success lies in anticipating buyer needs and delivering content aligned with their intent.So listen in as Sam and Roop discuss micro-moments, agency updates, ice cream diets and more!— Brenda, Brandon, Sam, Roop and ClaudiaTell us what you think!

Quote: In the midst of movement and chaos, keep stillness inside of you. -Deepak Chopra Chapters 0:42 Introduction to Stillness 2:18 The Struggle with Stillness 4:27 The Importance of Stillness 7:25 Benefits of Stillness 9:10 Ways to Cultivate Stillness 11:31 Practicing Mindfulness 13:54 Micro Moments of Stillness 15:29 The Power of Silent Meditation 18:04 The Benefits of Silent Meditation 20:45 Balancing Guided and Silent Meditation 23:05 Closing Thoughts and Quote Summary In this episode of the Anxiety Coaches Podcast, I delve into the transformative power of stillness and silence, which I believe serve as vital tools in managing chronic stress and anxiety. Amidst our fast-paced, modern lives, the notion of taking a moment for stillness might seem daunting or even frivolous. However, I argue that embracing this quiet awareness could be the key to achieving a healthier, more balanced mind and body. The relentless busyness of everyday life often leads us to prioritize distractions over introspection, and in doing so, we overlook the profound benefits that come from simply being present in a peaceful environment. I explore the reasons behind our resistance to stillness, notably the pressure we feel to remain constantly engaged and productive. In a world that often glorifies busyness, it's common to fill our schedules to the brim, leaving little room for rest. I share a personal experience of having to decline social invitations, which illuminated my own craving for quietude. This reflection underscores the importance of granting ourselves permission to step back and seek moments of stillness—something that is particularly vital as the hustle of the holiday season approaches and our natural need for calm becomes increasingly evident. The session emphasizes that stillness is not synonymous with idleness; rather, it is a powerful state of being that fosters clarity, intuition, and self-awareness. I discuss how cultivating stillness helps clear the mental fog that can cloud our perspectives, providing space for creativity and insight to flourish. #Stillness, #Silence, #AnxietyRelief, #StressManagement, #Meditation, #Mindfulness, #SelfAwareness, #InnerPeace, #MentalHealth, #SelfCare, #MindfulLiving, #StressRelief, #Intuition, #MentalClarity, #PersonalGrowth, #CreativeHealing, #CalmMind, #MindfulnessPractice, #SelfReflection, #RestorativeStillness, #MentalWellness, #GinaRyan, #ACP, #AnxietyCoachesPodcast Learn more about your ad choices.

ShanghaiZhan: All Things China Marketing, Advertising, Tech & Platforms
We're thrilled to re-broadcast an insightful episode from the Sinica Podcast, where host Kaiser Kuo sits down with Bryce Whitwam to delve into the ever-evolving world of Chinese livestream e-commerce. Bryce's latest research highlights a fascinating shift: Chinese consumers increasingly gravitate toward smaller, more personalized livestream shows that foster greater interaction with hosts. While large-scale shows with millions of viewers still exist, they're gradually being replaced by micro-targeted streams on platforms like Xiaohongshu and Douyin, which offer a more authentic and engaging experience. This evolution carries significant implications for brands looking to connect with highly targeted audiences in China. It could hint at the future of livestream shopping in the West, especially as TikTok explores similar trends. 1. How did you first engage with the livestream e-commerce trend in China? 2. What's the history of livestream commerce, and how has it evolved since its inception? 3. How does livestreaming contribute to consumer engagement compared to traditional retail? 4. What differentiates Douyin, Xiaohongshu, and Taobao as livestream platforms? 5. What role does authenticity play in driving consumer trust in livestreaming? 6. How do demographics like age, gender, and location influence livestream shopping behavior? 7. What are the key differences between China's livestream strategies and the U.S.'s early adoption of TikTok Shop? 8. How are niche and microtargeted livestreams reshaping consumer behavior? 9. What challenges or disruptions could affect livestream commerce's growth in China? 10. What does the rise of livestreaming tell us about broader changes in Chinese consumer culture? 11.

Summary - *RevelationShip Concept: Kathy Garland discusses the concept of "revelationship," a term that emerged from a teaching session at her father's church. It emphasizes a dynamic relationship with God through ongoing revelations, exploring how God reveals Himself through various ways, including scripture, creation, and personal experiences. *Suffering and Faith: Kathy shares her personal journey through significant life challenges such as divorce, child loss, and a severe car accident. Despite these hardships, her faith remained strong, and she questions why churches often fail to teach believers how to suffer well and glorify God through their suffering. *Authentic Faith and Deconstruction: Kathy talks about the importance of authentic questioning in faith, drawing from her own deconstruction experience. She highlights the value of testing one's beliefs and the dangers of adopting a consumer-like approach to religion by picking elements from different faiths without deeper understanding. *Attributes of God: The discussion touches on God's holiness as the foundation of His attributes, referencing a quote by Stephen Charnock. Kathy emphasizes that every action of God is inherently holy and serves a purpose, even if difficult to understand. *Upcoming Works and Study Guides: Kathy mentions her upcoming book "The God Who," which will further explore how God reveals Himself. Both this and her previous work, "Revelationship," include study guides designed to help readers apply theological insights practically in their lives. Podcast Intro: My guest Cathy Garland introduces us to the word and concept of revelationship. She shares her journey of faith, which has been tested through numerous hardships, including divorce, child loss, and a car accident. These experiences have led her to develop a concept called "revelationship," which she explains as an evolving relationship with God through revelations. Cathy emphasizes the importance of seeing God in all aspects of life, including the painful parts, and how this understanding forms the basis of her book titled Revelationship - Transformative Intimacy with Christ. Cathy discusses the shortcomings of the church in teaching believers how to suffer and mourn well. She critiques certain prosperity-driven teachings that suggest hardships are solely a result of personal failures. Instead, she argues that suffering is a part of life and can serve as a profound teacher that draws individuals closer to God. Cathy stresses the importance of authentic mourning and the discomfort it can cause others, highlighting the cultural reluctance to face and share pain openly. The conversation also delves into the topic of deconstruction of faith, with Cathy sharing her own experience of questioning her beliefs and how her parents, her father was a pastor, supported her exploration. She emphasizes that true faith can withstand questioning and that deconstruction should not be feared. Cathy advocates for the importance of surrender and obedience to God, suggesting that these practices help train us to resist the our human tendency to choose lesser things over what God offers us and Cathy even points out how we would easily and consistently choose the very thing that will kill us if left to our own understanding and our own desires. Finally, Cathy discusses various ways people can experience God, such as through worship, nature, and service, noting that these are legitimate pathways to deepen one's faith. She highlights the significance of repentance, not as a means to earn God's forgiveness but as a process of personal growth and sanctification. As we wrapped up you'll hear Cathy's passion for people to understand that God actively pursues a relationship with us, and that He's eager to reveal Himself, driven by His unwavering and holy love for us.

I want to talk about micro-moments in marketing! In marketing, "micro-moments" refer to the small instances when consumers turn to their devices to act on a need, whether it's to learn something, do something, discover something, watch something, or buy something. These micro-moments provide opportunities for a jewelry brand to engage with customers by being present with relevant, helpful content or offers at the exact time they're needed. As a jewelry brand, it's crucial to be present during micro-moments because these customers have a clear intention. Instead of interrupting them, you're connecting with them right where they are. In this episode, I'll share examples of micro-moments and offer guidance on how you can tailor them to your brand and storytelling. This approach will help you connect with your ideal customers where they are, offering them more than just a product—providing real value and fostering an emotional connection. In our "Gold Mine" segment, I want to talk about the importance of kindness and humility in business and how these qualities can take you further than you might expect.
