We've all heard the phrase "just get over it," but what if you're unable to? When we find ourselves trapped in feelings of shame, failure, or grief, Jesus reaches out to us in many ways, helping us break free from the past. This isn't about erasing our history but reframing it to offer a way forward, beyond our painful memories. The text is John 21, Peter, and the dreaded charcoal fire. 

Unlock "The Guna Matrix": A Bhagavad Gita Exploration of Knowledge, Action, and the Doer (18.19-18.28)Have you ever felt like you're operating under different influences? One moment you're clear and focused (sattva), the next driven by a restless energy (rajas), or perhaps feeling sluggish and confused (tamas)? The ancient text of the Bhagavad Gita provides a powerful framework for understanding these fluctuations through what we can call The Guna Matrix – the systematic classification of reality based on the three modes of material nature.In this episode, we delve into the profound wisdom of Bhagavad Gita verses 18.19 to 18.28, where Lord Krishna reveals how these modes define our knowledge, action and doer of action. He breaks down how jnana, karma and karta are influenced by sattva, rajas, and tamas. This isn't abstract philosophy; it's a practical tool for self-understanding and navigating the complexities of life.What You'll Discover:Mapping "The Guna Matrix": Explore the detailed classification system presented by Krishna, which provides a diagnostic tool for understanding our current state of consciousness.   The Threefold Nature of Experience: Gain clarity on how knowledge, action and doer of action manifest differently within each guna – sattva (goodness), rajas (passion), and tamas (ignorance). From the unity-seeing sattvic knowledge to the deluded tamasic doer, you'll see how these modes shape our experiences.   Ancient Wisdom, Modern Relevance: Learn how the insights from The Guna Matrix offer Bhagavad Gita practical wisdom for self-assessment, making conscious decisions, and cultivating environments that support spiritual growth.   Moving Beyond the Modes: Understand that recognizing The Guna Matrix is the first step towards transcending the gunas entirely, ultimately leading to liberation and pure spiritual consciousness.   Why Listen Now?In a world that often feels chaotic, understanding The Guna Matrix provides a clear lens through which to view ourselves and the world around us. By recognizing the influence of sattva, rajas, and tamas on our jnana, karma and karta, we can make intentional choices to elevate our consciousness and experience greater peace and purpose. This episode offers invaluable Bhagavad Gita Chapter 18 insights that can empower you to navigate life's challenges with greater awareness.Dive deeper into the profound wisdom of the Bhagavad Gita and unlock the secrets of The Guna Matrix.

What happens when marketing, psychology, and emerging tech converge around a single purpose, redefining the relationship between brands and consumers? In today's episode, I'm joined by Jaime Schwarz, a creative force behind Brand Therapy, The TeamFlow Institute, and MRKD.art, whose work is challenging the very foundations of modern brand strategy. From early days in the advertising trenches to pioneering Web3-native branding frameworks, Jaime brings a fresh take on how brands should evolve in a world dominated by AI, XR, and blockchain. We unpack the philosophy behind Brand Therapy — not as a gimmick, but as a framework that positions the brand as a living voice within the organization, mediating between company intent and customer expectation. Jaime explains how the rise of conversational AI and tokenized digital products shifts the entire focus from knowing your customer to understanding your product, not in terms of features, but as vehicles of legacy, collaboration, and value exchange. Throughout the discussion, Jaime breaks down complex ideas into accessible frameworks, such as the shift from consumerism to “conspicuous prosumerism,” where ownership is just the beginning of the story. Whether it's a sneaker, a piece of digital art, or an AI-enabled car that remembers your preferences and evolves with you, Jaime shows how technology can enhance brand relationships rather than dilute them. We also dive into the challenges of co-creation in enterprise environments, why marketers need to rethink what product-market fit actually means in the age of real-time AI interaction, and how NFTs, quantum computing, and immersive experiences are not hype but building blocks of a new economic model. Jaime's insights offer not just theory but a call to action for companies to stop waiting for the future and start prototyping it. If you're curious about how the smartest brands are embracing change without losing their core identity, this episode offers a compelling roadmap.

Jeff Pratt - "Moving Beyond Easter" | This message was from our 10:00 Service on April 27, 2025. To dive deeper into today's sermon, check out our "Beyond the Sermon" episode released every Wednesday.

Today's scripture is a passage from the first chapter of the Letter to the Ephesians, and delivering the sermon is Rea Green, a student at Vanderbilt Divinity School and our Ministry Intern. Rea begins by saying that she recently saw the moon and was struck by its stunning beauty, only to have a friend tell her that it wasn't the moon at all but a streetlight. In this way she introduces us to the fact that she is very much vision impaired. She gives some background and different viewpoints of the author and setting for Ephesians, but says what is clear is that it is written to a people that need assurance and unity, and the letter describes God's love for the “we” and “us” referred to in that letter, and it thus calls for unity under the love of God. And unity does not mean “uniform,” but a coming together in the knowledge that all are loved by God, even through our diversity. In that sense, the letter calls for awareness and recognition of our differences, but it then calls us to move beyond awareness to a call to action to embrace our differences and foster a deep love for all.

Send us a textSuccess. It's a word we hear all the time, but what does it really mean, and more importantly, who gets to define it? In this introspective and empowering episode, I'm breaking down how we often measure success by external markers, like praise, promotions, and popularity, and how that can lead to burnout, anxiety, and imposter syndrome. Together, we'll explore what it means to move beyond external validation and redefine success on your own terms. Let's shift from chasing approval to cultivating purpose, joy, and self-trust.What You'll Learn:Why traditional markers of success often lead to burnout or self-doubtHow to identify your personal definition of successThe importance of internal validation, and how to cultivate itHow values, boundaries, and self-compassion create authentic successKey Takeaways:External validation fades, internal peace lasts – Relying on others' approval is fleeting. Learn to build success from within.Your values should lead the way – Aligning your goals with what matters most to you creates lasting fulfillment.Self-compassion is a success skill – Growth isn't linear. Be gentle with yourself when things don't go as planned.Comparison steals your joy – Your journey is your own. Real success means honoring your pace and progress.Call to Action:Take a few moments today to reflect: What does success mean to me, outside of other people's opinions?

In this episode, Louise Juel and I reflect on the subtle yet powerful shift that happens when we begin to recognise the ego—not as something to get rid of, but as something we can see through. We talk about how triggers show up in everyday life, especially in relationships, and what it takes to pause and feel what's actually happening underneath the stories we tell ourselves. From the sensations in the body to the thoughts racing through the mind, we explore how awareness and presence allow us to soften our grip, take a breath, and begin again. This isn't about bypassing anything—it's about staying close to what's real, even when it's uncomfortable.(00:00) Beginning with the question: what does it mean to go beyond the ego?(03:32) How the ego responds when we're triggered—and how to catch it in real time(07:45) Louise shares a personal moment of reactivity and how awareness shifted the dynamic(12:20) We explore the difference between bypassing and allowing what's underneath the emotion(16:58) The body as a gateway to presence and the breath as a tool for softening(21:35) Why witnessing our reactivity is the first step toward true connection(25:50) The power of naming what's happening without judgment(30:14) Meditation, somatic awareness, and the spaciousness behind thought(34:42) Reclaiming the pause: how presence helps us choose differently(39:06) Closing thoughts on compassion, discomfort, and remembering who we are

Moving Beyond the Heartache “He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up their wounds.” — Psalm 147:3 Heartache is something none of us escape in this life. Whether it comes through the passing of a loved one, a dream that crumbles, or the ache of relationships that didn't go the way we hoped, they all leave marks. They shape us. They settle deep into the places where only God can reach. And sometimes, they make us feel like life has stopped in its tracks. But Scripture tells us something tender and true: God heals the broken in heart, and He binds up their wounds.

BONUS: Beyond Individual Talent: 2 Leadership Myths We all Believed in with Arne Roock In this BONUS episode, we delve into the complexities of team effectiveness with Arne Roock, an experienced Agile consultant who has worked with organizations ranging from startups to large corporations. Arne shares his insights on what truly makes teams perform at their highest level, why simply assembling talented individuals isn't enough, and how organizations can move beyond the "feature factory" mindset to focus on outcomes and impact. The Myth of Individual Talent in Teams "A team of experts is not an expert team." Arne breaks down the common misconception that placing highly talented individuals together automatically creates a high-performing team. Drawing parallels from sports, he points to examples like the "Red Army" hockey team and the famous "Miracle on Ice," where team cohesion proved more valuable than individual star power. Through his consulting work, Arne observed that quick-fix workshops often produced short-term improvements but failed to create lasting change. Sometimes, teams even deteriorated after temporary interventions. This led him to Richard Hackman's work on team effectiveness, particularly the 60-30-10 rule: leaders should spend 60% of their time designing teams, 30% launching teams, and only 10% on coaching interventions. Coaching alone cannot change a team's trajectory without proper design and launch Leaders should engage with coaches at the beginning of team formation Teams need sufficient stability to achieve meaningful impact Existing teams can be relaunched or redesigned to improve performance In this segment, wer refer to Richard Hackman's 6 conditions for effective teams, and to Margaret Heffernan's Superchicken Paradox Ted Talk, and to the episode with Heidi Helfand about Re-teaming. Balancing Delivery Focus with Team Development "Organizations trends go in waves." Arne discusses the pendulum swing in organizational approaches, noting how Agile emerged as a countermovement to process-centric methodologies. Currently, he observes a strong emphasis on delivery, with many organizations repositioning Scrum Masters as delivery leads. This trend, while addressing immediate business needs, often undermines the fundamental team-building aspects of the Scrum Master role. Arne suggests that we need to find balance between delivery pressure and people-centered approaches, treating these as polarities to manage rather than problems to solve. In this segment, we refer to the book Polarity Management by  Barry Johnson, and to Arne's blog post about cross-functional teams. Moving Beyond the Feature Factory "Delivery manager will undermine team responsibility." When organizations want to shift from deadline-driven development to outcome-focused work, Arne recommends examining team design fundamentals first. He cautions that adding delivery managers won't fix teams that haven't been properly designed and launched. Most organizations operate as "feature factories," focusing on output rather than outcomes. Arne suggests two high-impact practices that can help teams deliver more value: Implementing meaningful sprint goals and effective sprint reviews Using OKRs with specific checks on value delivered, not just features completed Arne emphasizes that the Scrum Master role is a full-time position, and when they're pushed to prioritize delivery management, important team-building work gets neglected. Proper team design creates the foundation for shared delivery ownership without requiring additional management roles. In this segment, we talk about an article that explains how to use OKR's with a “value-check” included.  About Arne Roock Arne works as a consultant for Agile methods and (leadership) team effectiveness. As a trainer and coach he supported both startups and big corporations in different industries. For the past ten years he took a deep dive into the tech industry as an embedded coach with Jimdo and Spotify. You can link with Arne Roock on LinkedIn and connect with Arne Roock on Mastodon.

In this episode of the Dear Creative Mind podcast, we gently explore the transition from dreaming to doing—a challenge many of us face as creatives. While imagination provides a comforting space to envision our possibilities, true growth unfolds when we begin to bring those ideas into the world. We reflect on how fear, perfectionism, and emotional blocks can keep us lingering in the dreaming phase and share tender ways to move beyond them.

As the world is increasingly shaped by the dominance of ‘Big Tech' – including the race for Artificial Intelligence – the outsized impact on our democratic and information systems has left many with fears and confusion about the path forward. But what if we could use technology as a tool that helps preserve the values of democracy and increases civic engagement, rather than eroding them? Furthermore, what sorts of people, projects, and policies are already paving the way?  Today Nate is joined by Taiwanese Digital Ambassador at large, Audrey Tang, to explore real-world examples of how technology is being leveraged globally to address – and in some cases reverse – critical societal challenges, such as polarization, misinformation, and the erosion of trust in governments and institutions.Tang emphasizes the importance of digital democracy, civic engagement, and incentivizing care in our policy making decisions to create a better experience and world for all humans. Is it possible to use social media as a tool that unifies citizens across polarized societies? How could technology be used to amplify the voices of citizens and influence policy making with human and planetary well-being in mind? And finally, even as technological corporations continue to consolidate power, what options are available to individuals who want to engage with technology in new and empowering ways?  (Conversation recorded on March 4th, 2025)    About Audrey Tang: Audrey Tang is Taiwan's Cyber Ambassador-at-large and was the first Digital Minister of Taiwan. Audrey is celebrated for their pioneering efforts in digital freedom. Named one of TIME's “100 Most Influential People in AI” in 2023, Tang was instrumental in shaping Taiwan's internationally acclaimed COVID-19 response and in safeguarding the 2024 presidential and legislative elections from foreign cyber interference. Audrey is now focused on broadening their vision of Plurality — technology for collaborative diversity — to inspire global audiences.   Show Notes and More Watch this video episode on YouTube   Want to learn the broad overview of The Great Simplification in 30 minutes?

This week's episode features Josh Millet, the founder and CEO of Criteria. We dove deep into the world of evidence-based hiring, exploring how to make objective talent decisions that not only reduce bias but also drive better business outcomes. Josh shared some powerful insights about the common pitfalls in hiring, the importance of focusing on "strong signals" rather than "weak signals," and how to create a more equitable and transparent hiring process. It's like trying to bake a cake with a recipe written in a different language – you might have all the ingredients, but you're missing the key instructions. We talked about how traditional hiring practices, like relying heavily on resumes and unstructured interviews, can inadvertently perpetuate bias and limit our talent pool. Josh's expertise really shines a light on how we can move beyond these outdated methods and embrace a more scientific approach to talent acquisition. Plus, we even touched on the tricky topic of DEI and how, regardless of your stance, everyone can agree that reducing bias is a win-win. So, grab your favorite beverage, settle in, and let's explore how we can build a workforce that's not only diverse but also incredibly successful. Here are the key takeaways from our conversation: Beyond the Resume: Traditional hiring methods often rely on "weak signals" like education and years of experience, which aren't always the best predictors of job performance. Josh advocates for focusing on "strong signals," such as cognitive ability, personality traits, and the ability to learn, which are more closely linked to success. The Interview Trap: Unstructured interviews are rife with bias. Josh shared that almost 50% of people make up their mind about a candidate in the first five minutes! He emphasizes the importance of structured interviews with standardized questions and scoring to ensure a more objective evaluation. Assessments with Intention: Assessments can be powerful tools for measuring potential and reducing bias, but they need to be used thoughtfully. Josh highlighted the importance of explaining the purpose of assessments to candidates, providing feedback, and offering accommodations when needed. He also discussed innovative formats like game-based assessments to improve the candidate experience. DEI Reimagined: Regardless of your personal feelings about DEI, reducing bias in hiring is something everyone can agree on. Josh pointed out the clear ROI of diverse teams, including increased profitability, innovation, and creativity. He also emphasized that diversity encompasses much more than just race and gender, including age, socioeconomic status, disabilities, and veteran status. Transparency is Key: Candidates, especially Gen Z, value transparency in the hiring process. They want to know how they're being evaluated and appreciate equitable treatment. Open communication and feedback mechanisms can significantly improve the candidate experience. Actionable Allyship Takeaway: Review your current hiring process and identify at least one area where you can incorporate more objective, evidence-based practices. Maybe it's structuring your interviews, rethinking your assessment strategy, or simply being more mindful of the language you use in job descriptions. Insightful Quotes: "So much to unpack in there. I hadn't thought about Big Ten bias, but I think I'm going to look at that one." - Josh Millet  "You're not going to remove all the bias and subjectivity from your process.

Got a question, comment, or just want to drop some encouragement? Send us a text.What happens when two loving parents disagree about how to respond to their child's behavior? This deeply personal episode dives into one of the most challenging conflicts couples face—differing parenting approaches.Through the story of Justin and Lori, we examine how bedtime struggles with their six-year-old son leads to couple conflict. Justin believes in firm boundaries and worries about being manipulated, while Lori focuses on understanding what's driving their son's behavior. This scenario leaves both parents feeling misunderstood and judged by their partner.Stephen Mitchell, PhD and Erin Mitchell, MACP unpack the neuroscience of effective parenting—acknowledging a child's experience, attuning to their emotional state, and reflecting/mirroring what we observe—while honestly addressing why this approach can be difficult to implement consistently in real life. Most importantly, they explore how our own childhood experiences create emotional triggers that make these conversations particularly charged. Stephen shares how his resistance stems from not wanting to parent like his father, while Erin reflects on how being raised by a busy single mother shaped her approach to structure and boundaries.The path forward isn't about determining who's right, but understanding what drives our reactions and learning to "parent on purpose" instead of from automatic patterns. By approaching these differences with kindness and curiosity, couples can move from rigid opposition to thoughtful collaboration.Want more resources to help transform your essential relationship conflicts into deeper connection? Our book "Too Tired to Fight" gives you practical tools to navigate the 13 conflicts every couple faces, including parenting differences.

In this episode of Thinking Christian, James Spencer and Nate Giarratano take a deep dive into the complexities of meritocracy, systemic sin, and hiring practices. Using personal stories and broader cultural conversations—sparked by a recent presidential speech—they examine whether hiring is ever truly based on merit alone. They explore how networks, relationships, and institutional structures shape hiring decisions, sometimes in ways we fail to recognize. Does meritocracy really exist? How should Christians think about hiring in ministry and beyond? And how does our dependence on God shape the way we navigate these realities? Join the conversation as James and Nate unpack these issues and challenge common assumptions about qualifications, fairness, and faith-led decision-making.

In this episode, Ruth and special guest Reverend Dr. Prince Rivers discuss the second chapter of Selina Stone's book, Tarry Awhile. Prince shares personal stories from his life and ministry. He explores his experience of “two-ness” as a child, straddling two different worlds and identities. Prince also sheds light on the profound impact of communal worship, the importance of acknowledging embodied experiences in faith, and how these practices serve as a source of dignity and healing for marginalized communities. The conversation highlights the synergy between pastor, musicians, and congregation in creating transformative worship experiences, emphasizing the importance of being attuned to the Spirit as a part of the practice of tarrying.    We are journeying through Lent with a podcast season entitled “Tarry with Me Awhile: Learnings from the Black Church.” We will use Dr. Selina Stone's book, Tarry Awhile: Wisdom from Black Spirituality for People of Faith, as a guide. Black spirituality has much to offer us in understanding the practice of tarrying as a Lenten practice. Together we will seek a deeper understanding of waiting on God in the liminal space—where the resurrection feels far off, and our deaths and suffering are present.  Reverend Prince Raney Rivers (TC8) is the Senior Pastor of Union Baptist Church in Durham, NC. Prior to this appointment, he served for twelve years as Senior Pastor of United Metropolitan Missionary Baptist Church in Winston-Salem. Rev. Rivers received a Bachelor's degree in Psychology from Morehouse College and a Master of Divinity degree from Duke University Divinity School. He has earned a Doctor of Philosophy in Leadership Studies from North Carolina A&T University. He also completed the Harvard Divinity School Summer Leadership Institute and was a fellow of the Pastor-Theologian Program at Princeton Theological Seminary. Rev. Rivers and his wife, Dr. Monica Corbitt Rivers, have two wonderful children.   Music this season is provided by Julian Davis Reed. Julian Davis Reid (TC20) is an artist-theologian from Chicago who uses sound and word to offer hope to the searching, presence to the sorrowful, and rest to the weary. A pianist, composer, and producer, his projects featured on this podcast are the two solo piano records Rest Assured (2021) and Beside Still Waters (2024) and his single Moan (Matthew 2:18) featuring Tramaine Parker, released on Inauguration Day 2025 on the project When Souls Cry Out.
