In this episode of Lais and The Coach, we sit down with author, creative consultant, singer, and all-around quantum thinker Courtney Schawl to unpack a powerful idea:You are the sum of your last two moves.Courtney shares how the Fibonacci sequence (yep, that thing from math class) helped her get unstuck in business and life — and how you can use the same principles to create your own “quantum leap.”We dive into:

SHOW NOTES: On this show…we're talking about something most of us feel deeply but rarely pause long enough to examine: how we honor the gift of time. Have you ever caught yourself saying, “Wow… time is really flying by,” yet found yourself spending whole stretches of your life on things that don't matter, don't fill you, or don't reflect who you're becoming? It's that strange contradiction; we feel time slipping, yet we still give so much of it away to worry, distraction, obligation, or drama that never pays back. This episode was sparked by a conversation with a friend about entering a new season of life where time feels less like a resource and more like a gift, something to handle with care. I shared this year's motto with him, “Just because I can doesn't mean I want to or have to,” to which he said, “You're preaching to the choir”. WOW, I wasn't alone; we were both experiencing the same thing at the same time.  There was a time when saying yes to everything felt like the responsible thing to do. It felt like proof that we were pulling our weight, showing up, and making things happen. Now, many of us want to choose more intentionally, not slowing down necessarily, but selecting the people, projects, and commitments that bring meaning. And underneath all of that is the idea of stewardship: being entrusted with something precious and choosing to invest it wisely. If time is a gift, how do we honor it? How do we invest it in what truly matters instead of what simply demands attention? That's what we're exploring today. Not from a place of guilt or pressure but from a place of awareness and gratitude. This episode is about shifting from simply spending time to investing it. And choosing what truly matters. CHALLENGE: Honor the gift of time by choosing what aligns with your values and letting go of what doesn't. Invest wisely. Protect what matters. And receive each moment with gratitude. I Know YOU Can Do It!  

In this episode Betsy talks a bit about midlife and 3 things women who are ready to make their mark in midlife typically do. Transcript: 410 reinvention in midlife Speaker: [00:00:00] Welcome to The Art of Living Big, where we explore how to live intentionally and with more joy. I’m Betsy Pake, your host, master, coach, and creator of the Navigate Method. Here to help you listen in to your true desires, elevate your standards, and live life to the fullest. Now, let’s go live big. Hi, welcome to The Art of Living Big. Hi, everybody. I have, I have a couple things to share with you as we get kicked off today, and I wanna do this episode really about being in the middle, the middle midlife, and being in the middle of all the things, the middle verse as I like to call it. And. You know, I, and, and before I continue, I also wanna just remind you, we are doing another fireside chat. If you go to my Instagram in the bio, so if you go to my Instagram [00:01:00] page and you click on the links, there’s a link to the next fireside chat, and it is in January. It’s a Sunday night, I think it’s the ninth, if I remember right. And we really just get together and talk about things that are coming up in midlife. So I have some. Thoughts to share this time. Last time it was just really lovely and I think there was like, I don’t know, 40 people or something there. So, so put it on your calendar. Go check that out. Um, come and join us and today we’re gonna talk a little bit about midlife and all the things. And I’ll tell you, I have the most midlife story ever. So I got this idea. I have been really actively working on all the little things that bring me joy. I have the belief, and you probably have this belief too, that hard things happen and the things that make hard things easier is having a lot of little micro happiness, right? [00:02:00] Little things that can support you through the hard times. This year has been like one of the strangest years. I need to do a podcast on this year, like, like an incredible, incredible transformational year for me, and I can feel myself like. It’s like I’ve gone through the portal, like I can feel myself like just being ejected from the portal. I know this summer I kept saying I’m in the birth canal, like I feel like I’m in the birth canal and I am definitely out now, but the most midlife thing to ever happen to anybody ever on the planet ever happened to me. So I have this idea. About these little things that bring me joy, and one of the things that I really like is I like to color on my iPad. Okay? I like to listen to audio books, right? I want somebody to read me a story. I like to do puzzles. Okay? I haven’t done a puzzle in forever, and I really like doing puzzles. I like [00:03:00] doing like, like those small focused things while I’m listening to music or while I’m listening to. Uh, like I have a YouTube channel that I love that is like my comfort show and. I also like to do it when I listen to audio books, right? So, or podcasts, you know what I’m saying? So something. And so I decided I was gonna get a puzzle and I was really excited about it. I went to the store and I was like looking at all the puzzles and trying to figure out one that would be hard enough, but not too hard, and. Anyway, I found one, it’s like these stickers you would put on a suitcase, right? So it’s all like these travel stickers. So I was like, that’ll be fun. It’s cute, it’ll be easy enough because there’s so much uniqueness to it, right? So each of the pieces will be unique. So. I get it home. I mean, I have it all like laid out. I’m sorting the pieces. I’m like, I am like a professional [00:04:00] puzzler at this point. And so I get to work. I got an I or I got a, an audio book going like, I mean, I’m feeling good about this, right? A, a couple hours go by, I’m standing up because I’m like leaning over the table and organizing it all, and I got the whole like outline together and I’m starting to get like the second and third row of the puzzles and then I’m like, man, I’m getting tired. Like I’ve been doing this puzzle for like three hours and then I go to stand up and I realize that I have been leaning over, sort of like if you were brushing your teeth for three hours. And this midlife back was very unhappy. It was just tired. Do you know what I mean? I, there’s nothing bad that happened, but it was so tired that it was starting to spasm on one side of my back. I mean, I was like, are you joking? I don’t know if you’ve been here for a long time. You might remember I had that back spasm when I was in Iceland like four years [00:05:00] ago. It was that same spot, right? So I just about died, but the thing that I learned from Iceland was not to put ice on it. I needed heat. So I laid on a heating pad and I made it through, and I’m feeling better, much better today. You know, it took a couple days, but I was like, is this not the most midlife thing to ever happen? That I have a puzzle injury, like I puzzled too close to the sun and I had a puzzle injury. With that. I wanna talk this week about being in midlife, but also this reinvention and why this time of our lives. I really believe with the wisdom that we have and. The life lessons that we’ve learned and the experiences and the things that we’ve gone through. We are actually in one of the best possible places ever to have a real invention, reinvention that [00:06:00] creates like amazing change and an arrival of something really new for us. You know? So let’s dive in here. You know, I think. As I was thinking about this, I was like, you know, I, I think when I think about midlife, you know what I think about, I think about. The guy with the sports car, right? Isn’t that what we kind of always think about? At least when I was younger, that’s what I thought about. Like the guy that got a younger girlfriend and had a red sports car. And I also think there is something that we are meant to believe about women in midlife. Which is that we’re going through all these crazy hormonal changes and everything is different and it’s something that you actually have to survive, like something that you have to really get through or endure. And I also think until recently it was something you were supposed to endure like silently. You [00:07:00] weren’t supposed to talk about anything actually happening biologically in midlife. That was sort of taboo until recently. I think even like the last five years, maybe 10 years, but like five years probably. But I am wondering, and these, this is the thing that I always talk to the ladies inside the Navigate Method about is that what if midlife is actually the most incredible, powerful portal that you will ever step into? N not because it’s easy, magical, like birth canal, but because things get stripped away and now you get to tell the truth. And I think every woman that I work with reaches this moment where the performance of life and being a woman, the performance of being a [00:08:00] woman, right? Like I. Of how you’re supposed to be a woman. Let’s say it that way. That performance stops, right? You stop performing stability, you stop performing the roles that you had to, and your roles change. Like maybe you had kids and now your kids are moved out, like you, you, you know what I mean? All these different things happen. You stop pretending. That everything in your marriage is fine or that you can just sweep stuff under the rug that it’s it like it’s fine. Like that. You can stop pretending that the life that you built, even if you put a lot of effort into building it, you get to stop pretending that it still fits. And I think this is a huge breakthrough because we are refusing to whisper. Because we are refusing to stay the same, and we are in a [00:09:00] world that really wants us to stay the same. It wants us to still look 20. It wants us to still have the body that we had in our twenties. It wants us to still be performing all the things and all the tasks and have the energy and all these things, but that’s just not our lives anymore. And I think that, you know. Men in a lot of ways are allowed to age. We say even when men get gray, it’s distinguished. I, I can’t, I, I feel rage. I feel rage even now as I say that. It’s distinguished, but women are supposed to. Sit and put chemicals on your hair, and if you want to do that, I salute you. Do it like I love it. I’m thinking about getting some Botox because I want to, but probably because I’ve been told that I need to do, you know what I mean? Like probably my eyelids are heavy, so I have this idea that I could get some Botox and lift my eyelid a little bit so that I wouldn’t have to get surgery on my eyelids, which a side note I think will probably be a medical [00:10:00] procedure at some point soon. But the point is. That there is a difference between what we do and what we are supposed to do and what men do and what men are supposed to do. Men are supposed to just age and women, we have to evolve in a totally different way, and I feel that too. I haven’t colored my hair in years, but I still look in the mirror sometime and like should I, would I look better? How do I define better? I’m not sure, but I think it has to do with being younger. I think it has to do with looking youthful. And of course I want those things, but why do I, and so I think that this, that midlife starts to feel like a collapse, right? There’s this point where all of your old coping strategies sort of lose their oomph. [00:11:00] So I think that this, this point of midlife is a reinvention, but it’s not a reinvention of starting over. I think it’s a reinvention about becoming the version of you that is renewed, right? It’s about remembering someone old, the version of you that got buried under, you know, e expectations or responsibilities or the, the roles that you had, right? Marriage dynamics, how you operate in a professional capacity, like all of that stuff. And we are layered. So you’re not lost, but this is now those layers starting to peel back, right? Because you’re starting to catch up to your evolvement. So this is all right on time. I really think all of this comes at a place that is [00:12:00] divine intervention for us. When we are listening, and I think I mentioned this last week. Maybe it was last week. I know I’ve talked about it in my groups incessantly, but my friend Jamie and I keep talking about how our body is an oracle. That’s how we’re describing it. Our body is an oracle. We know the truth. When we can get out of our head and listen to our body, and I think with all these changes going on in our bodies, we start really paying attention and it’s like a magical door that opens. Allows us to be able to see something that we were able to ignore, right? That we were able to sweep under the rug before, and now we, we just don’t get to as much. And you know, as we keep talking about midlife. We have a sponsor for the podcast, and I know you’ve heard me talk about Cozy Earth and I wanted [00:13:00] to talk about them in this particular podcast, both because their sheets are magical if you have night sweats, but also because, um, this is gonna go live right in the beginning of December, and right in the middle of December is when their, the coupons that they have on their website are gonna change. So you can use a code. R code. So it’s live Big Betsy, live big Betsy, one word. You can use that and you can stack it. To the discounts that they have on their website. So you could get those sheets, those luxury sheets that I always talk about for 40% off, which I think is crazy. So I want to tell you about the sheets. They have a money back guarantee, so check them out. But also, like if you’re looking for little stocking stuffers, they’re, they’re socks. They have these like cozy lounge socks and I got a three pack. It’s these really pretty pink colors and they’re really like my most favorite socks. [00:14:00] I think maybe I talked about ’em last week. I feel like I talk about ’em all the time though. Like for real, because they’re cozy and I wear ’em a lot with, I have these Tory Birch, um, like Birkenstocks. They’re like Boston Birkenstocks, but they’re Tory Birch. So a little bit different, but I wear ’em with those all the time and I just love ’em. Um, and then of course. The quilted house coat. I mean, if I had sound effects in this podcast, I would have like angels singing. Oh, it’s the, the best thing ever. You’ve heard me say it. Uh, I won’t, I won’t belabor this issue, but it’s the best thing ever. I’m gonna wear it to the fireside chat this next month because, um, it’s cozy. Cozy, and I put it in the dryer and it is a comforter basically that’s made into a. House coat. They call it a house coat. I call it a bathrobe, but on the website it’s called quilted house coat. But it’s lovely and 40% off. I mean, it’s crazy. So the sizing that’s on there is accurate. So check that out. [00:15:00] And like I said, they have this a hundred night sleep trial on the sheets, so you get to try the Cozy Earth sheets, and if you’re not totally in love, you can just return it. They won’t even. Hassle you about it, but you won’t wanna return ’em, you’ll love them. Um, so. 10 year warranty on all the bedding products. You get this a hundred night sleep sale. It’s a, it’s a no brainer, but please get the bathrobe because I want everybody to come to the fireside chat in their bathrobe. Like I’ll be so excited. But I think this is like, one of the things about midlife is we get to do some stuff for ourselves, right? We get to buy the cozy socks and have our quilted house coat and drink our tea or coffee and just do what we want. Do you know what I mean? And I love that for us. So let’s talk about what I think reinvention in midlife actually requires, because I think that who we are becoming. Does require something of you and I [00:16:00] have been through it this year, I feel like I need to do a episode. That would just be a personal download of everything I’ve been through and I think everybody would relate and it would probably be fascinating case study, but you know the person you are becoming, this new version of you that happens in midlife costs you a lot, it costs you the patterns that have kept you small. Like Be reinvention is about making a really honest. Moves forward. It’s not about, I always say the ladies in my program are brave because it takes a lot to look at the, look at your crap, right? But it’s really also about making not just brave moves, but honest moves. And so here are three things that I see again and again in women who really show up and step into this next chapter. First, and I have a little story to tell you too, about last night. Uh, [00:17:00] this is a good little story. A little woowoo story, but let me get through these like first little things. The first thing is they, they stop apologizing for wanting more. I can’t tell you how many time I’m talking to somebody and they’re like, I mean, I feel bad, but I would really like, or it would be nice if they could, right? So they get to have more, they get to have more peace. They get to be in their quilted, housecoat and drink their tea, and everybody can go figure out what they want for dinner. Ketchup packets for everybody. They get to have more connection. They get to feel purpose in a new way, right? So many times women felt purpose when their kids were young or when they were building their careers or things were happening, but now they get to choose what that looks like. They get to choose more alignment. Your body is an oracle. What feels right to you, and this doesn’t come from entitlement. It doesn’t come from like everyone else, be damned. It comes from truth. So the three things I [00:18:00] see over and over again for women that are really ready to step into the next chapter as they stop apologizing for wanting more, and the next thing is they learn how to listen inward instead of outward. You can’t build a new way of being like you can’t build a new life with old validation. Your clarity comes from your inner voice, not from being approved by someone else. And I think a huge part of that comes down to listening to yourself and your body being the oracle. Like how does that feel? That’s such a great directive. And inside the Navigate method, we teach people how to know if something’s a yes or a no. It’s actually really easy when you know how to do it, and then all of a sudden, every decision they’re running through this blueprint and all of a sudden they’re like, oh my God, this feels so good. Right. The third thing is they make micro, micro decisions that feel.[00:19:00] Self-respect. So it’s not these huge leaps. You know how I was talking about having a puzzle and listening to an audio book? It’s not, I’m not going to Vegas for the weekend on a private jet. It’s not little, it’s not big things. It’s little things. It’s not huge leaps. It’s tiny moments of choosing yourself over and over and over again until the whole trajectory of your life starts to change. So reinvention, I think, is a series of quiet choices that start to recalibrate things and recalibrate your future. So. The story I wanted to tell you was last night we had our alumni group. So if you, if you, if you’re a member of the Navigate Method and you go through the Navigate Method, once you are complete, you go into our alumni group and our alumni group, you get certain things and you also get every week, or I’m sorry, every month we meet live. Okay. [00:20:00] So you can continue to get coaching like forever. And I always joke that that’s really for me ’cause I. I get obsessed with everybody and I wanna be with everybody. But one of the last night, there was a woman that was there that I love. She’s been in the program, you know, in the sphere, in the community for two years, and she’s, we did a little visualization exercise at the end of our group. When we got to group and she showed up on camera, I said, you look so pretty. And she’s like, my hair is curly. And I said, I haven’t seen you in a couple months. She was traveling and she’s like, yeah, I feel so good. She said, I feel so whole and complete. Like I feel really good. And she’s like, and the weird thing is, well, for the summer my hair just got curly. She’s like, my hair has always been really straight and fine. And now it’s curly. And I was like, oh, it looks cute, you know? And on with the group we went and at the end of the group I did this [00:21:00] visualization. And at the end of the visualization, she like popped into the camera and she was like, white, like a ghost white. And I was like, how was that? And she said, you did this with me. When I very first started, like two years ago, and she said the woman that came to me in the vision as me had curly hair and I didn’t recognize her. And so I didn’t relate to the visualization at all. And it was really like, how do you, what do you, who are you at you 2.0? Right? And she was like, I realized when you were doing it again that I am. I am her like two years later here I am like, like fully healed, fully whole feel, fully like in alignment, listening to myself. And she was like using all the skills and tools that you taught me and I have created this life and now I have curly hair just like I am two years ago in that visualization. And so I [00:22:00] joked like, do you have the curly hair? ’cause you imagined it so your hair got curly ’cause you thought that’s what would signify it. Or did you know you were gonna have curly hair? I don’t know. It was pretty cool though. It was pretty cool. So, you know, here’s the thing about midlife is you don’t get a map ahead of time unless you do one of my visualizations. And then you might get the map and it’ll make no sense ’cause your hair will be curly, but you get the next step. You know when you get the next step, and then you get the next step when you get the next and the next. And your only job. Is to stay in relationship with yourself, because that is where the clarity always returns. So women tell me all the time, like, I just feel so lost. But what they really mean is like, I feel unfamiliar because I’m not who I was. I’ve outgrown that identity, you know? But I don’t know who I am yet. Like I’m not moved into the one that I’m becoming. And so this period [00:23:00] of in between. This period of the middle verse, right? It is not failure, it’s the formation, it’s you becoming. So take a breath. Place your hand on your heart and ask yourself, what is the truth that I have been whispering to myself, that I am finally ready to hear out loud. It might be small, it might be enormous. Both of those are sacred, and that wisp, that whisper is truly the beginning of your reinvention. So I think when you can grasp ahold of that, that is how you live a big life. All right y’all. It was so good to see you here. I hope to see you at the Fireside chat. Make sure to go and register for that. Get your cozy Earth stuff live big. Betsy is the code. Get it 40% off. ’cause you know we love a deal over [00:24:00] here and I will see you guys next week.

SHOW NOTES: On this show…we're talking about something that feels simple on the surface but has quietly gotten complicated over the years; the lost art of human connection. Let me ask you this. Have you ever caught yourself choosing the easier, more convenient option even when you knew the real thing would've felt better? Maybe it was sending a text instead of having a conversation. Maybe it was Googling an answer instead of asking someone for help. Or maybe, without even realizing it, you've replaced community with convenience. I grew up in a time when your “search engine” was the person standing next to you. You needed directions? You asked someone. You wanted a restaurant recommendation? You talked to the locals. You had a random question or a big idea or a wondering moment? You pondered it. You reasoned it out. You let your mind chew on it. And in all those moments, even the small ones, connection happened. But today? We can outsource nearly everything: information, support, company, and even our curiosity. And while convenience is wonderful, it's also quietly replacing the face-to-face interactions that used to stitch our communities together. I don't believe humans were designed to live isolated lives. We're built for each other. To feel for others, to be felt by others, and to feel ourselves more fully because someone sees us. So on this episode, we're exploring the slow drift toward disconnection and how we can intentionally build bridges back to community, purpose, and genuine human interaction. Because convenience might be efficient. But connection? That's what makes us feel alive. Let's take a moment to define what I mean by “disconnecting.” I'm not talking about running away to the mountains or deleting every app on your phone. I'm talking about when convenience slowly replaces connection until you look around and realize you're not engaging with real people the way you used to. Connection is more than being in contact. It's being in a community where you feel known, seen, valued, and plugged into something bigger than yourself. It's being able to walk into a room and feel the energy shift because you're part of a group. Where are people getting that today? For some, it's online communities, and that's not all bad. But many have drifted away from in-person spaces that used to offer grounding and belonging. Church is a big one. And I get it. “Organized religion” has become a loaded phrase. Many people stepped away from the institution and accidentally stepped away from the community too. The real loss? Not just the rituals but the relationships. The potlucks. The check-ins. The encouragement. The sense of purpose that comes from helping, serving, or even just showing up. Without those touchpoints, it becomes easy to float. Easy to isolate. Easy to forget what it feels like to be needed or known. And yet, most people say they want purpose. They want belonging. They want to feel plugged in. But those things require participation. They require interaction. They require us to be in the room. So how do we start finding our way back? CHALLENGE: So, I challenge you… to intentionally choose one moment this week where you replace convenience with connection. Look for the conversation, the eye contact, the opportunity to help, or the open door to step back into community. Be brave enough to show up, be present, and let yourself be needed again. I Know YOU Can Do It!

¿Sabías que hay coches con etiqueta CERO que contaminan más que uno con etiqueta C? ¿Y que esa etiqueta CERO puede tener los días contados? Hoy en GH analizamos el ciclo de vida COMPLETO (fabricación, uso y reciclaje) de un coche con datos reales. Comparamos 4 versiones de un SUV (Gasolina, Híbrido, PHEV y Eléctrico) en un uso de 10 años y 150.000 km. El veredicto de nuestra "Pizarra Hermética" te va a sorprender. FASE 1: LA FABRICACIÓN: La "Deuda de Carbono". Aquí empieza la sorpresa. Fabricar un coche de gasolina genera unas 14 toneladas de CO2. Fabricar su equivalente eléctrico (basado en datos de Volvo) genera 25 toneladas. ¡Casi un 80% más! El culpable es la batería, por la enorme energía necesaria para extraer el litio, cobalto y níquel. El coche eléctrico sale de fábrica con una gran "deuda de carbono" y, además, con un precio de compra mucho más alto. FASE 2: EL USO A 10 AÑOS: Ahorro vs. Riesgo Catastrófico) Durante su uso, el eléctrico es imbatible en el día a día. Recargarlo es mucho más barato que repostar gasolina (aprox. 2,70 € vs 10,15 € cada 100 km). PERO... ¿qué pasa en el año 9 y 10? La garantía media de la batería es de 8 años. Un coche de gasolina de 10 años tendrá gastos previsibles (quizá 1.000 € o 2.000 €). Un coche eléctrico fuera de garantía se enfrenta a una "espada de Damocles" financiera: un fallo de batería puede costar 10.000 €, 15.000 € o incluso 20.000 €. Esa única factura anula de golpe todo el ahorro de la década. Este riesgo destruye el Coste Total de Propiedad (TCO). ¿Quién compra un coche eléctrico de 10 años fuera de garantía? El mercado de segunda mano penaliza esta incertidumbre y el valor de reventa se desploma. LA TRAMPA DE LOS PHEV Y LAS ETIQUETAS DGT El otro gran mito: los Híbridos Enchufables (PHEV) y su consumo de 1,5 L/100km. Es una fantasía de laboratorio que solo se cumple si lo cargas a diario. La UE lo sabe y, desde 2025, cambiará las reglas (Factor de Utilidad) basándose en el USO REAL (la gente no los carga). Consecuencias: El CO2 homologado de los PHEV se multiplicará. Perderán el acceso a ayudas (MOVES) y pagarán más Impuesto de Matriculación. Esto impacta de lleno en las etiquetas de la DGT. El sistema actual es un coladero. Se espera que los Mild-Hybrid (MHEV) pierdan la etiqueta ECO y los PHEV pierdan la CERO (salvo los de gran autonomía). Aunque la DGT dice que no será retroactivo, la inseguridad jurídica para los coches ya vendidos es enorme. EL VEREDICTO FINAL Tenemos dos veredictos: 1. Veredicto Medioambiental (Total a 150.000 km) (De menos a más contaminante) Eléctrico (BEV): ~32,5 t CO2 (Gana si se carga con energía limpia). Híbrido Convencional (HEV). Gasolina: ~39 t CO2. Híbrido Enchufable (PHEV): El PEOR de todos si no se carga, superando al gasolina. 2. Veredicto Económico (Riesgo a 10 años) (De más a menos recomendable financieramente) Gasolina: El más predecible. Coste bajo, mantenimiento conocido y sin "facturas-bomba". Híbrido Convencional (HEV): Muy fiable. Híbrido Enchufable (PHEV): Doble riesgo (térmico + batería) y futuro legal incierto. Eléctrico (BEV): El más arriesgado. El ahorro diario queda anulado por el riesgo de la batería post-garantía. La película a 10 años vista es muy diferente a la que nos cuentan. ¿Estás de acuerdo con este análisis? ¿Cuál es tu experiencia? Déjanos tu opinión en los comentarios.

Life is full of crossroads. Jobs. Moves. Relationships. Direction. Many Christians stress over decision-making because they fear missing God's will. Pastor Jeff and Tiffany discuss how Scripture shows God guiding His people through everyday decisions with wisdom and steadiness. They discuss the four steps that bring clarity and peace, and the five “landing lights” that help believers discern God's voice with confidence. What We Discussed04:11 Double-Mindedness and Spiritual InstabilityJames 1 describes wavering between decisions as “double-mindedness.” He compares it to staggering like a drunk; anxious, unsure, and unstable.05:08 The Wrong Ways We Try to Find God's WillCommon but misguided approaches people use are waiting for emotional tingles, relying on formulas, or looking for mystical signs written in the sky. These methods don't reflect how God normally guides His people.07:00 Four Steps for Discerning God's WillAdmit you need a guide; God leads the humble, not the self-reliant. Ask in faith for direction and listen for God's response. Trust God when you don't understand14:19 The Five Landing Lights of God's GuidancePastor Jeff walks through the five markers that help confirm God's direction:Landing Light #1: A Multitude of Godly CounselorsLanding Light #2: Personal DesiresLanding Light #3: The Peace of the Holy SpiritLanding Light #4: External CircumstancesLanding Light #5: The Word of God22:14 Step 4: Trust God When You Don't UnderstandGod rarely shows the full plan. He often gives light only for the next step. Trust becomes essential when the future is unclear. 23:41 God's Will Is Not HiddenGod delights in guiding His people. The same Shepherd who leads is the One who laid down His life, so His guidance can be trusted fullyBook: Making Life Decisions: Journey in Discernment by Geoff Pound“The Shepherd who directs your steps is the same Shepherd who laid down His life for you.

"This is our annual Thanksgiving show. Thanksgiving is celebrated in many counties other than the United States. We will tell you the list and and how the people celebrate. Plus play songs about Thanksgiving food."

SHOW NOTES: On this show…we're exploring something that shows up in almost every part of life, yet we rarely sit down and separate it out: the difference between critical and cynical. Have you ever noticed how easy it is to take something at face value, especially when the information comes fast, polished, and wrapped with confidence? Or maybe you've had the opposite reaction, where you hear something new and immediately think, “Yeah right…” and shut it down before it even has a chance. Somewhere between believing everything and doubting everything is the space we're trying to find today. We live in a world that delivers opinions like a conveyor belt; nonstop, loud, and often disguised as fact. Articles, posts, videos, conversations, “experts,” your cousin's cousin, all chiming in with certainty. And if you've ever wondered, “How am I supposed to know what's actually true?” you're not alone. It can feel overwhelming, and honestly, it's tempting to pick one of two defaults: go along for the ride without questioning anything, or armor up and become suspicious of everything. But neither one really leads us to clarity. The more I think about it, the more I realize how important it is to bring your own critical eye to what you see, hear, and even feel. Not in a confrontational way, not in a “let me prove you wrong” way, but in a grounded, thoughtful way. It's your job and my job to ask questions, explore, and do a little digging. To understand not just what might be true, but what might be false. To recognize that believing something at face value can be irresponsible, especially when your decisions, your peace of mind, and your perspective are on the line. But here's where today's topic gets interesting: being critical and being cynical are not the same thing. One opens the door to growth. The other slams it shut. One helps you navigate the world with clarity. The other keeps you stuck behind a wall of distrust. And if you've ever felt yourself drifting toward cynicism, maybe from burnout, disappointment, or just being tired of sorting through so much noise, you're not alone there either. CHALLENGE:  Take one moment this week to notice which window you're looking through. When new information comes your way, pause before you react. Ask yourself whether you're leaning in with curiosity or leaning back with cynicism. Choose the version of you that trusts your ability to think, explore, and decide for yourself. I Know YOU Can Do It!

Among the suggestions being put forward are a franchise based T20 league, similar to those of many other Tier 1 cricket nations, a New Zealand team entering the Australian Big Bash competition, and a refresh and reinvigoration of our current Super Smash competition. Former Black Cap and vastly experienced white ball cricketer, Anton Devcich joined Piney to discuss the measures NZ Cricket needs to take to breathe life back into our domestic T20 scene. In regards to a franchise based league, Devcich 's not entirely sure how well it would work, but he knows that a significant chunk of change would need to be forked out to any team involved.

"Video may have killed the radio star but streaming and individual choices in music killed the video. Paramount Global has begun shutting down Mtv channels in Europe and reports are that soon it will come to the United States. Mtv is 44 and it looks like it may not make it to 45. "

SHOW NOTES: On this show…we're talking about speaking life. How the words we use, both out loud and in our heads, can either drain our energy or feed our strength. Have you ever noticed how quickly one negative thought can spiral into an entire mood? One complaint, one worry, one “what if,” and before you know it, you're swimming in tension and exhaustion. It's wild how something as simple as language can shape how we feel, think, and even heal. I've always believed that we're more powerful than we realize. The body, mind, and spirit are in constant conversation with one another. Every thought sends a message. Every word carries weight. And when we speak life, when we choose words of hope, belief, and gratitude, we set off a chain reaction toward peace and restoration. I'm not saying life suddenly becomes easy or that we can positive-think our way out of every challenge. But I do believe that we can rise above chaos and confusion by intentionally choosing the voice we let lead. We've all seen what happens when negativity takes over. Worry turns into anxiety, anxiety into stress, and stress into physical strain. Cortisol spikes, sleep suffers, and our patience runs thin. It's like our entire system is on alert, reacting to a story we keep repeating even if that story isn't true. But what if we flipped the script? What if we started calling life as we want to see it, not ignoring reality, but speaking possibility into it? There's a fine line between being honest about what's happening and being captive to it. You can acknowledge the storm and still believe in the sun. That's what speaking life is about: setting your internal thermostat instead of being the thermometer that just reacts to everything around you. Choosing peace even when the world feels loud. Trusting your resilience, your purpose, your ability to heal. Faith-filled words often come before faith-filled feelings. CHALLENGE: Be intentional with your words this week. Speak life into every situation: into your thoughts, your relationships, and your dreams. When negativity creeps in, stop it mid-sentence and choose words that reflect faith, hope, and healing instead. Let your language lead your life in the direction you want to grow. I Know YOU Can Do It!

SHOW NOTES: On this show… we're flipping the script and asking, are you giving as much as you're taking? Have you ever felt like life just isn't fair? Like you're stuck playing the hand you were dealt while others seem to coast through with a royal flush? Maybe you've caught yourself thinking, “Why do they get all the breaks?” or “When is it my turn?” It's easy to feel that way when we're hyper-aware of what we're not getting, but how often do we pause to consider what we're giving? Sometimes, entitlement sneaks in wearing the mask of fairness. We may believe we're owed something: more time, more praise, more help, because we've been working hard, showing up, or just surviving. But here's the deeper question: are we creating the kind of balance we're craving, or are we tipping the scales with our expectations? This episode isn't about guilt-tripping or grinding it out harder. It's about awareness. About getting curious, not critical, and asking, “Am I contributing to the harmony I want to experience in my life and relationships?” Let's explore what it really means to give as much as you take… and why that shift in focus might be the key to unlocking more purpose, joy, and momentum. And here's another angle we'll explore: how feeling stuck or shortchanged can morph into bitterness and blame if we aren't careful. That mindset can convince us we're powerless, resigned to our circumstances, when really, we have far more influence than we think. What happens when we trade frustration for curiosity? When we stop asking “Why not me?” and start asking “What can I do?” That's where things start to shift. The B-side asks: “What if your version of 'giving' is actually masking a fear of being seen as selfish?” Here's the twist: the most generous people are often the ones who've learned to give from a full place—not a place of obligation, fear, or performance.  CHALLENGE: Take an honest inventory of your energetic exchange with the world. Where are you contributing, and where are you simply consuming? Identify one area this week where you can shift from expectation to contribution — whether it's your time, your presence, your encouragement, or your effort. Give without waiting to feel ready, and see what shifts within you as a result. I Know YOU Can Do It!

"The number changes, but as of the writing of this description, only 1883 songs have topped the Billboard Hot 100 chart including all its earlier versions.

SHOW NOTES: On this show…we're exploring the power of pausing to see what rest can really reveal. We'll be slowing things down. Literally. In a world where “fast” is the default setting: fast food, fast lanes, fast Wi-Fi, it's easy to feel like we're always rushing. Have you ever found yourself impatient in the “wrong” line at the store, agitated by the buffering wheel, or frustrated that someone isn't replying fast enough? It's almost as if our value is tied to how quickly we can move through life. But then, without warning, we hear ourselves say something like, “Where did the time go?” or “Life is just flying by.” Strange, right? We're racing to get to the next thing…only to mourn how fast it's all passing. This week, we're hitting the brakes because maybe it's not just about productivity. Maybe there's something hidden in the quiet. A secret in the stillness. A truth that's hard to hear when everything is moving too fast. We'll dig into what it means to find the middle lane, not stuck, not speeding, but moving with intention. Together, we'll ask: What am I missing when I never slow down? What could rest reveal if I actually gave myself permission to pause? And if rest feels like a luxury you can't afford or a guilty pleasure you never let yourself enjoy, then this is the episode for you. Ready to shift gears? What does rest feel like to me? Does it feel luxurious? Lazy? Guilt-ridden? Productive? Unfamiliar? Now, here's a trickier one: When was the last time I paused, on purpose, not because I was forced to, but because I chose to? CHALLENGE: Press pause—on purpose. Not because you're burned out or forced to stop, but because you choose to check in with yourself. Create space this week for a moment of stillness. Let it be awkward, quiet, or unfamiliar if it needs to be. Then listen. Not to the world's demands—but to your own voice, your own rhythm, your own needs. I Know YOU Can Do It!

"The NOW CDs, as they are often called, started in the UK in 1998 with Richard Branson. They were a hit out of the gate, each crafted to a specific formula. They are a professionally made mix tape. We have the full history and a good bit of trivia about the series."

dattrax: Welcome my Fellow Brothers and Sisters to where house music resides. Hope all is well in your corner of the world.I"m soooooooo excited to share this mix with you!!!!This is one of my fav mixes that I've ever made. It's 73 Tracks in 2hrs and 14!!! That's about one track in every 1.8mins. What I love about this mix is that it treats each track as components to DJ/mix with. It was so much fun. I was dancing and singing my heart out. This took about three attempts with the same batch of tracks. Probably another 100 on top of what's recorded here, but this attempt was completely different than the two previous test mixes.The mixing and layering is fantastic. I probably can't reproduce this feel. Glad it's recorded.It glides through different types of house music that MOVEs me. I really hope that you enjoy this mix.I really LOVE the transitions, although I was too impatient with about 4-5 and didn't mix out the preceding tracks as well as I'd like to. It is what it is.It's the imperfections that make the groove PERFECT. Everything in its place right??I also took a few tracks and played them multiple times and because they were sandwiched between different combinations on the way in and out, it was a completely different feel each time. Never did this before. It's an interesting technique. Building an overall groove throughout the two hour mix and mini grooves with 2 to 4 track combinations.Ahh... geeking out. House music and DJ'ing it is so fascinating.Thank you so much for checking out this mix. I appreciate you. You could have chosen to spend your time anywhere else you'd like. Thank you. All the best to you.May God Bless You and All Whom You Love.Cheers,dattrax---------------COME & CHECK OUT our main site with almost 200 mixes.

SHOW NOTES: On this show…we're learning when to listen, when to help, and when to just let it breathe.  Have you ever found yourself halfway through someone's story and already mentally rolling out the action plan? They're still explaining how overwhelmed they feel, and you've already drafted three possible solutions, ranked by efficiency. Guilty? Me too. If you're a natural-born fixer, hearing a problem can feel like a challenge to solve — like someone just lobbed a ball your way and you're already mid-pitch with a winning strategy. But here's the thing: not everyone wants a playbook. Sometimes, they just want a bench to sit on, a shoulder to lean on, and someone to nod and say, “That sounds really tough.” So how do you know when to jump in and brainstorm, and when to just… be present? When do you absorb like a sounding board, bounce back ideas like a springboard, or wind up like a pitcher ready to throw? And how do we know if we're solving the real issue or just rearranging the symptoms? This week, we're exploring what it really means to support someone in their moment of need. Let's pull back the lens and see if we can't shrink this idea into focus. Maybe the key isn't always to act, but to understand. Maybe the most powerful support we can offer doesn't come from solving, but from seeing. CHALLENGE: When someone shares something heavy or hard with you, resist the reflex to fix it. Instead, pause and ask: “Do you want ideas, or do you just need me to listen?” Give space. Offer presence. Trust that just being there might be exactly what they need.    I Know YOU Can Do It!

"Cryptozoology is the study of a creature that probably doesn ot exist. Think Bigfoot. What is great about it is that every state seems to have its own monster. Maybe people really do think it exists or maybe it was invented to scare children at Halloween. We built up a list along with songs about candy. It is Halloween 2025."

SHOW NOTES: On this show…we're exploring something that has always been at the heart of Encouragementology: the simple, powerful, and essential need for connection. Not surface-level chatter or algorithmic affirmations, but real, human-to-human interaction. The kind that looks you in the eye, senses your mood, leans in when you're struggling, and celebrates when you're rising. Have you ever found yourself surrounded by communication but still feeling completely alone? Maybe your phone lights up all day with notifications, you scroll past hundreds of smiling faces and inspirational quotes, and yet… you can't remember the last time you had a meaningful, face-to-face conversation. Or maybe you've poured your heart out to your AI assistant lately, been met with warm, empathetic responses, and then struggled to hold eye contact with a real person at the grocery store. If by then… we're still going into grocery stores. Let me be honest. Encouragementology didn't start because I had a collection of clever phrases I thought belonged on coffee mugs or T-shirts. It started because I deeply, truly believe people need people. Encouragement isn't just a mindset; it's a shared experience. I've led Women Connect, a support group for women helping women find direction. I continue to run Senior Connect, where we create space to combat senior isolation. Because despite all the tools and tech at our fingertips, the greatest impact still happens across the table, not across a screen. We're in a time when AI can be more than a tool; it can be a companion. And that's both exciting and… something worth pausing to think about. When your virtual assistant knows your preferences, mirrors your emotions, supports your every dream…but your real-life partner barely listens, what's that doing to your sense of connection? When the digital feels safer than the physical, how do we stay human? Today, we'll unpack those questions. Not to scare you away from tech or shame you for turning to tools that help, but to remind you of something essential: we were built for connection. Not just convenience. So let's talk about it. CHALLENGE: Step outside the comfort of curated connection this week and make a move toward real, human interaction. Send a message, make a call, show up in person; whatever it looks like, let it be intentional.    I Know YOU Can Do It!
