What happens when your child shares something that shifts the future you thought you understood?   In this episode of Inside the Children's Hospital, Katie sits down with Kelly Kemp — certified child life specialist of more than 30 years and mom of three — to talk about navigating trust, grief, advocacy, and love after her child was diagnosed with gender dysphoria and came out as transgender.   Kelly shares: The phone call that changed everything Navigating substance use and mental health concerns Grieving privately while choosing love publicly Rebuilding trust with her child Supporting siblings during a major transition Setting boundaries with extended family Finding affirming medical and mental health care Holding faith and parenting together during uncertainty This conversation is not about politics. It is about parenting inside a medical diagnosis. It is about trust. It is about grief that doesn't mean rejection.

Whether your child is navigating a medical diagnosis, identity development, or a season you didn't anticipate, this episode will remind you: Grief and love can coexist. Trust is foundational.

Together, Stéphanie Rousselle and Abdu Murray explore some of today's most pressing concerns surrounding identity, truth, and technology—offering a Christian worldview on navigating these cultural shifts. At the heart of this conversation are two concepts Abdu Murray terms “bioclasm” and “AI mania”:Bioclasm is a cultural movement that, much like the "iconoclast," seeks to smash the traditional pillars of biological identity—such as gender and humanity itself—and reconstruct reality based on feelings and preferences, rather than facts. It is rooted in a post-truth culture, where personal feelings often outweigh objective truth.AI Mania refers to the society-wide rush to embrace artificial intelligence and technology without critical thought. Abdu Murray is careful to distinguish healthy technological use from unchecked enthusiasm, warning that overreliance on AI can blur boundaries between machine and human, making us question what it means to be truly human.Together, these movements lead to a "collapse of reality," where personal perception threatens to override the givenness of biological and moral truths.Navigating the tsunamis of bioclasm and AI mania requires discernment, compassion, and a return to the ultimate source of truth. The Christian hope is not in technological transcendence or personal autonomy, but in the God who creates, redeems, and sustains our true identity.Abdu Murray explains transhumanism as the ambition to overcome human limitations (including death) by merging with machines or uploading consciousness to digital forms. While proponents of this vision believe it offers hope for immortality, Abdu Murray points out its weaknesses—especially that all physical systems eventually succumb to entropy, or decay, and that technological "immortality" is a myth. True creativity, meaning, and relationship cannot be distilled into data or algorithms.Underneath the drive for identity autonomy (being your own authority) and technological transcendence is a deep longing for meaning, stability, and transcendence—what the Bible describes as being made in the image of God. The Christian faith urges us to find our core identity not in fleeting markers or technological advancements, but in relationship with our Creator.Abdu Murray draws parallels between today's quests for sovereignty and the biblical stories of Eden and Babel: humanity's attempts to become ‘like God' on their own terms have always resulted in loss, not gain. The hope, he says, lies in returning to the thick, robust understanding of what it is to be human: a living soul, created and loved by God.So, how can we engage culture with both conviction and compassion? Abdu challenges believers to answer each person, not just their arguments, and to see every conversation as an opportunity to remind others (and ourselves) of our true worth and purpose—anchored in God, the unchanging source of truth and identity.MORE ABOUT ABDU MURRAYAbdu Murray speaks internationally about the intersection of Christian faith and the questions of culture. He is the author of several books, including Saving Truth, Grand Central Question, and More Than a White Man's Religion. For most of his life, Abdu was a proud Muslim until a nine-year historical, theological, and scientific investigation pointed him to the Christian faith. Abdu lives in the Metro Detroit area with his wife, Nicole, and their three children.MORE ABOUT “FAKE ID”This groundbreaking exposé of how artificial intelligence and gender ideology undermine our view of reality helps us cut through the chaos and find the hope we're looking for.We hear that technology will set us free and that identity is whatever we choose. What we're not being told is how these promises unravel reality itself, leaving us restless and confused in a world where we can no longer tell what is true.Christian thought leader Abdu Murray shows us how the ancient, yet timeless wisdom of Scripture anchors us to transcendent truth as we navigate today's cultural tsunamis. This fascinating book empowers us to:Think critically and ethically about AI and gender identityUnderstand why we are neither biochemical machines nor gods of our own makingDiscern what is real apart from cultural influence and pressureBe who God calls us to be rather than who culture tells us to beApply biblical truth to our understanding of what it means to be humanA compassionate guide to finding scientific and moral clarity, Fake ID equips us to think clearly, love deeply, and live with unshakeable hope.Support us on Gospel Spice, PayPal and Venmo!

Cody Garrett provides an in-depth analysis of the changing landscape of health insurance in the U.S., focusing on the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and adjustments to premium tax credits. He emphasizes the critical role that zip codes play in determining healthcare costs and highlights the importance of understanding the 400% federal poverty level cliff, which poses financial risks for many families. Various health insurance options are discussed, including COBRA, retiree coverage, health sharing ministries, and private insurance, equipping listeners with vital insights for making informed healthcare decisions. Listeners will learn actionable strategies for tax planning related to health insurance, including how to maximize benefits and minimize costs while navigating available healthcare options effectively. Key Tactical Takeaways Understand Income Levels: Monitor your income to avoid going over the 400% federal poverty level, which can eliminate premium tax credit eligibility. Evaluate COBRA Costs: Review code DD on your W-2 to understand total health insurance premiums and assess whether continuing with COBRA is financially wise. Explore Health Sharing Ministries: These may have lower premiums but lack the legal protections of traditional insurance; evaluate carefully. Use HSA Contributions: Contribute to Health Savings Accounts to lower taxable income and potentially maintain premium tax credits; you can contribute even without earned income. Utilize Marketplace Resources: Access healthcare.gov to determine premium tax credits based on your specific circumstances, including zip code and household income. Be Cautious with Tax Planning: Adjust advanced premium tax credits based on estimated income cautiously to avoid unexpected tax liabilities. Core Rules & Formulas Rule/Formula Description 400% Poverty Level Threshold Know the household income limits that could affect premium tax credits. COBRA Cost Calculation Employee + Employer Premium (W-2 code DD x 102%) = COBRA Costs. HSA Contribution Can lower modified adjusted gross income; contribute by April 15 without earned income requirements. Premium Tax Credit Calculation Estimated Credit = Based on adjusted gross income, household size, and the second lowest-cost silver plan. Adjust Premium Tax Credits You can change the advanced credit amount month-to-month via healthcare.gov. Tools, Accounts, or Strategies Mentioned Tool/Strategy Description healthcare.gov Website for ACA marketplace and health insurance options. Health Savings Account (HSA) Account for saving for healthcare costs that reduces taxable income. COBRA Coverage Allows continuation of employer health insurance post-employment. Health Sharing Ministries Group healthcare cost-sharing options that offer lower premiums but higher risk. Private Insurance Individual insurance plans that require medical underwriting. Resources & References Tax Planning to and Through Early Retirement Cody's Website What Next? Review your income and health insurance options during open enrollment. Assess your COBRA costs by checking your W-2 for current premium data. Explore HSA contributions to manage your taxable income prudently. Adjust advanced premium tax credits through healthcare.gov based on changes in your financial situation.

Forty years in the paranormal will change the way you see the unknown.For Allen Cornelison, what began as a deeply personal experience inside his own family became a lifelong journey into investigations across the Midwest and beyond. But after decades in the field, the stories aren't what compelled him to write his book. The responsibility is.In Navigating the Paranormal,  he lays out what he believes many investigators overlook — the ethical weight of stepping into someone's home, labeling a location “haunted,” and influencing how families interpret fear, grief, and unexplained events.This isn't about thrill-seeking. It's about discernment, credibility, and knowing when a case requires more than cameras and curiosity.We talk about the lessons learned over four decades — the dangers, the boundaries, and what responsible paranormal investigation truly looks like.Get more information at allenlobo.com.#NavigatingTheParanormal #AllenCornelison #TheGraveTalks #ParanormalBooks #GhostInvestigation #ParanormalEthics #SpiritualDiscernment #HauntedInvestigations #SupernaturalAwareness #ParanormalWarnings #FaithAndTheParanormal Love real ghost stories?

For many women, the word “millionaire” can still feel uncomfortable. Not just financially, but culturally. Many of us weren't raised to imagine ourselves as wealthy, powerful, or building seven-figure net worths.My guest today wants to change that.Bola Sokunbi is the founder and CEO of Clever Girl Finance, one of the largest financial education platforms for women in the U.S. She's a Certified Financial Education Instructor, a six-time bestselling author, and her newest book is Clever Girl Millionaire.What I appreciate about Bola's approach is that she doesn't frame wealth as a quick win or a social-media highlight reel. Instead, she focuses on the real path to building wealth: intentional decisions, consistency, and the courage to think bigger about what's possible.Bola's own story is deeply personal. She grew up in a Nigerian immigrant household where resilience and sacrifice were part of everyday life. Her mother left a successful career as an investment banker in Nigeria and came to the U.S. to start over as a nanny so her children could pursue opportunities here.That experience shaped how Bola thinks about money, opportunity, and something we explore deeply in this conversation: legacy.Because wealth isn't just about reaching a number in your bank account. It's about asking bigger questions:What do you want your money to represent? Who do you want it to help? What changes because you existed?In this episode, Bola and I discuss:• Why the word “millionaire” still intimidates many women • How to build wealth even if you're starting from debt or living paycheck to paycheck • The mindset shifts required during uncertain economic times • Navigating family obligations and financial pressure, especially in immigrant households • And why legacy isn't just about money — it's about impact.Bola's Website: https://clevergirlfinance.comBola' New book: https://www.clevergirlfinance.com/clever-girl-millionaire/ Hosted on Acast.

In this episode, Brett breaks down many of the themes that rarely get addressed in modern leadership conversations. He talks about power dynamics, internal and external conflict, and what it actually looks like to lead when the situation isn't clean or clear. That includes navigating manipulative behavior, managing seemingly no-win situations, and making decisions that can carry real personal and professional ramifications. The situations faced can tempt you to soften your standards or drift into people-pleasing just to keep external stakeholders satisfied. Brett explores how to avoid that trap, how to read the room more accurately, and how to assess what's really going on beneath the surface — not just in others, but in yourself. He also shares an update on his upcoming book with Penguin Random House, which releases December 1, and explains why he chose to focus on the morally gray, psychologically demanding side of influence and leadership.

With over 40 years of history, the Hanley Foundation is moving beyond the "Just Say No" era into evidence-based prevention that addresses the root causes of use: isolation, digital addiction, and the mental health fallout of the post-COVID world.Key Takeaways The "Double Whammy" of COVID & Smartphones: Dr. Docekal highlights how the combination of pandemic isolation and the rise of social media "highlight reels" has created a surge in anxiety and depression among youth.The Shift in Treatment: For the first time, the Hanley Center has had to dedicate primary beds specifically to mental health (not just detox), reflecting a crisis where substances are often a secondary symptom of internal distress.The THC Trap: They discuss the alarming trend of high-potency marijuana causing psychiatric breaks in young people—and the frightening reality that for some, the cognitive changes may be permanent.Connection Over Correction: The core of the issue is often a loss of "true human connection." From families on phones at dinner to the addictive nature of algorithms, the "nemesis" in the pocket is often the biggest barrier to wellness.Innovative Prevention ProgramsThe Hanley Foundation is pioneering programs that treat students with dignity rather than just discipline.Program FocusReplacing "Zero Tolerance"Instead of suspension/expulsion, students caught using enter a series of counseling sessions that include their parents.Alcohol Literacy ChallengeDe-bunking MythsThis program uses science to show kids that the "positive" effects they expect from alcohol (confidence, better dancing) are actually psychological, not pharmacological.A Note for Parents: The Power of "Just Being"When asked for her #1 piece of advice for parents and educators, Dr. Docekal offered a grounding perspective:"You don't have to have the answer; you just have to have the presence. Just be with your kid.

Navigating the Modern College Admissions Landscape with Rick ClarkIn this episode of The College Admissions Process Podcast, I welcome back Rick Clark, Vice Provost for Enrollment Management at Georgia Institute of Technology and co-author of The Truth About College Admissions. With decades of experience leading enrollment at one of the nation's premier STEM institutions, Rick offers thoughtful insight into the seismic shifts reshaping college admissions — and what families must understand to navigate this process wisely.We begin with the evolution of STEM and the changing landscape of Computer Science. Rick explains how artificial intelligence and prompting fluency are influencing disciplines far beyond a single major. Computing is no longer confined to one department; it is becoming embedded across the curriculum. For students, the message is clear: depth matters, but adaptability matters just as much.One of the most powerful moments in our conversation is Rick's “soup” analogy for admissions. Shaping a class is not about evaluating students in isolation. Institutions must balance residency goals, academic program needs, institutional priorities, and long-term enrollment strategy. Sometimes an admissions decision reflects the composition of the class more than the qualifications of the individual applicant. Understanding this distinction can bring clarity — and perspective — to families navigating outcomes.We also discuss the importance of storytelling within the application. The Common Application is not simply a form; it is a narrative. Letters of recommendation should function as a meaningful “forward,” adding new insight rather than repeating what is already visible. The Additional Information section should be used with intention, reserved for context that genuinely matters.Rick also addresses the ethical use of AI tools, including ChatGPT and Microsoft Copilot, as strategic resources for clarity and precision — particularly when refining activity descriptions within tight character limits. Used wisely, these tools can support organization and concision while preserving authenticity.We also highlight practical tools such as the Common Data Set and Net Price Calculators — resources every family should use early to ensure both academic and financial fit.This conversation is grounded, transparent, and empowering. If you are looking for clarity in a complex admissions landscape — and a way to move through it as a unified family — this episode delivers exactly that.Georgia Tech - Undergraduate AdmissionGeorgia Tech - Enrollment Management NewsLink to Rick's Book

One of the best aspects about Substack is discovering and connecting with other writers whose words you resonate deeply with. Christina Book is one of those people for me, and I'm excited to introduce her as this week's guest.I came across Christina's writing sometime last year, and I quickly noticed how similarly we think and write. I think a big reason for that is the fact that, as Millennials, we share many of the same life experiences — and have walked through many of the same bumps along the way in our faith journeys.We grew up with a vision of how life should look by a certain age. We were given a roadmap — and we trusted it. But for many of us, reality has turned out very differently. Now, we live with this pressure of feeling like we're behind — not having checked off milestones like marriage, buying a house, or starting a family by the age we once assumed we would. At the same time, many are carrying the weight of student loan debt from degrees that haven't delivered the return we were promised.Now in her early 30s, Christina offers a thoughtful and honest perspective on all of this. I especially appreciate her insights on dating and singleness — what it looks like to desire marriage and a family while also learning to live with contentment in the waiting. We also talk about the lasting impact of the Church's “purity culture” messaging from our teenage years, and how we're both still untangling some of that as we navigate dating and marriage.We also talk about the challenge of building friendships and meaningful relationships as adults — something that's often harder than we expect and rarely talked about enough. From there, we get into the realities of navigating career changes and the pressure that comes with trying to make the “right” decisions in a season of life that can feel anything but clear.If you're a young adult, this conversation is especially for you. But even if you're not, I hope it offers a window into the unique struggles many young adults are facing and helps you become a source of wisdom, empathy, and encouragement in their lives.You can connect with Christina and read her work on Substack, where she runs Storystead Co.

In this episode, Duane Mancini sits down with Sarah to unpack her path from healthcare operator to investor and what founders should know when raising capital today. Sarah shares how her experience as the 10th employee at a digital health startup shaped her empathy for founders and the practical lens she brings to diligence, from ICP and pricing to building durable foundations early. The conversation pulls back the curtain on venture mechanics—how syndication and relationships really work, why fundraising is difficult when LPs demand DPI, and how fund structure, lifecycle, and co-investments can shape outcomes for startups. Sarah also explains Angelini Ventures' global strategy and thesis-driven focus in areas like cardiology and neurology, and why “exitability” requires forward-looking insight into strategic buyers, technology shifts, and long-term fit.Sarah Fox LinkedInAngelini Ventures WebsiteDuane Mancini LinkedInProject Medtech WebsiteProject Medtech LinkedInThank you to our sponsors: Ward Law and JumpStart Inc.

Are you waiting for clarity about your future… or are you still becoming the version of yourself who creates it? In this powerful livestream, I explore how timelines shift based on the choices we make and the versions of ourselves we step into. After having a vivid dream about jumping timelines using a four-digit code, I realized how deeply this reflects our real lives. We are constantly moving between potential realities based on our decisions, our courage, and the missions we choose to accept. If you've been asking questions like: • Is this relationship "the one"? • Is this career opportunity aligned with my soul? • Why can't I get a clear psychic or intuitive read on my future? This episode will help you understand why the future sometimes feels unclear. It may not be set yet. It may depend on who you are becoming. I share a real-life example of how one major mission-based decision can completely alter relationship outcomes, abundance levels, confidence, and frequency. Your romantic future, your health, your success, and your purpose may be more interconnected than you realize. We also talk about: • Quantum timelines and parallel versions of self • Free will and karmic mission choices • Why intuitive readings can feel "blocked" • Eclipse season intensity and accelerated time • How stepping into your purpose changes your frequency We are in a powerful eclipse portal right now, with a full lunar eclipse approaching. Energies are amplified, timelines feel accelerated, and clarity may feel just out of reach.  The question isn't just "What is my future?" The deeper question is "Which version of me am I choosing to become?" If this resonates, please like, subscribe, and share. It helps so much and I am deeply grateful for this beautiful community.  https://www.soulelevationpodcast.com/follow  https://www.youtube.com/@soulelevationpodcast?sub_confirmation=1  In This Episode A vivid dream about jumping timelines How different choices create different versions of you Why psychic clarity about the future may be unavailable The hidden connection between career mission and relationships How frequency shifts affect love, abundance, and destiny Navigating eclipse season and accelerated time

I also offer some suggestions and examples of how we can approach our "Challenge Zone" and why moving fast isn't always the best way to go. Sometimes all it takes is one small step out of the norm.

Key Takeaways In this solo episode, I delve into the potent cosmic energies of early March 2026, including a Mercury Retrograde in Pisces and a total Lunar Eclipse. I share a personal announcement about a temporary pause in the podcast due to a move, and connect this personal transition to the universal experience of navigating change. The episode explores the challenges of life's major transitions, the liminal space between winter and spring, and offers a guided meditation with a channeled message from Lemurian guides to help listeners anchor themselves during these transformative times. The Cosmic Weather Mercury Retrograde in Pisces (February 25 - March 20): This period is described as a time for introspection, intuition, and emotional clarity over logical precision. The host encourages listeners to pay attention to their inner compass, dreams, and soul whispers. Mercury Cazimi (March 7): A moment of clarity amidst the retrograde fog, where important messages and insights may surface. Total Lunar Eclipse/Blood Moon (March 3): Occurring on the Virgo-Pisces axis, this eclipse is presented as a "cosmic reset button" for karmic release, urging a balance between practical changes and spiritual surrender. Life's Hardest Transitions The episode identifies and discusses the top three most stressful life transitions, reframing them as portals for growth and transformation: Death of a Loved One: A sacred journey through grief that teaches about love and resilience. Divorce: The "death of a dream" that can lead to profound liberation and self-reclamation. Moving: An uprooting process that opens the door to new adventures, communities, and possibilities. The In-Between: Winter into Spring I explore the difficult transition from late winter to spring as a liminal space. This period is characterized by a restless feeling of wanting to move forward while the world is still dormant. Instead of resisting this tension, listeners are encouraged to embrace it as a sacred pause for observation and preparation. Guided Meditation: A Channeled Message from the Lemurian Guides To help listeners navigate these energies, the episode includes a guided meditation. The meditation aims to ground the listener, connect them to the crystalline core of the Earth and the Great Central Sun, and open a channel to receive wisdom from Lemurian guides. The channeled message emphasizes: Cleansing, not confusion: The current cosmic energies are for washing away illusions and emotional debris. Karmic release: The lunar eclipse is a time to let go of perfectionism, control, and separation. Trusting the process: Like a seed in frozen earth, we must wait, gather, and trust that we will rise when the time is right. Remembering our nature: We are beings of light, and this transition is an activation of our innate Lemurian codes of unity and love. Three Anchors for Navigating Transition The episode concludes with three practical anchors to help navigate any life change: Release what no longer serves you: Use this time for emotional and spiritual purging. Practice radical self-care: Focus on grounding and nurturing activities. Embrace change: Trust that all shifts are moving you toward your highest good.   I'll be back soon!  Use this opportunity to go back to previous episodes you might have missed. Thanks again for listening! To your Spirit, Terri
