I was recently sitting in one of my Change Leadership classes for my Master's degree in Organizational Leadership, and my teacher asked us, “What would it look like if, as change leaders, we were to suspend certainty more often?”  I immediately made a note to myself, “podcast episode on suspending certainty!”  As someone who craves certainty but understands that nothing is certain, I often think about becoming more comfortable with impermanence.  I've never heard this referred to as “suspending certainty”, but this term struck me, and I knew I wanted to dig into it with you all!   In this episode, we talk about the importance of suspending certainty in leadership and personal growth. We talk through the benefits of embracing uncertainty, including: Increased curiosity Access to new perspectives Openness to learning and new opportunities Increased surprise, delight, and joy Gifts that come when we step out of our “I got it all figured out” ego Resilience, resourcefulness, tenacity, creativity, fun, and JOY are all born out of figuring out new things, embracing new realities, letting go of the old, and stepping into new opportunities where we don't know exactly how things will go.  What might happen for you if you felt prepared to step into uncertainty at any time?  Suspending certainty will help you with this preparation.  Episode Highlights: 00:00 Introduction and Exciting Updates 03:35 The Concept of Suspending Certainty 04:03 Understanding the Gifts of Suspending Certainty 11:10 Benefits of Embracing Uncertainty 20:10 Navigating Personal and Collective Uncertainty 30:30 Conclusion and Upcoming Workshop Links Mentioned: Attend my free workshop for women small business owners, Focused and Fierce: Lead with Purpose and Build Your Business in a Noisy World: saradean.com/fierce Watch Shameless Leadership episodes on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@saradeanspeaks Hire me to speak: saradean.com/speaking Coach with me: https://saradean.com/executive-coaching-services Connect with me on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/saradeanspeaks Interested in becoming a sponsor of the Shameless Mom Academy?

Can drinking tea make you happy – or do happy people just like to drink tea? There is definitely a connection between tea and mental health, and this episode begins with an explanation. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25657295/ Artificial Intelligence is either the next big thing that will transform our lives or the worst thing ever that will curse humanity. So, what is the truth? Pulitzer Prize winning journalist Gary Rivlan has taken a hard look at AI and joins me to discuss the good and the bad and reveals how AI will affect us all. Gary has been writing about technology since the mid-1990s, he is author of 9 books and his latest is called AI Valley: Microsoft, Google, and the Trillion-Dollar Race to Cash In on Artificial Intelligence (https://amzn.to/4dXcfIl). You have likely noticed that the world is pretty noisy. The big concern is that noise has a big impact on our health. It's not just hearing loss that is the problem. Noise is connected to heart disease, premature death and other health issues that we all need to be aware of. Here to explain how noise affects you and what we can all do about it is Chris Berdik. He is a journalist who has investigated the dangers of noise in our world and he is the author of a book called Clamor: How Noise Took Over the World - and How We Can Take It Back (https://amzn.to/45cyYhe). There is something that women can do with their voice that can make them seem more attractive to men. What's interesting is that if men try to do it, it has the opposite effect. Listen as I explain what that is. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2014/04/140411153320.htm Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

And when the girls hit their teen years, they will often be married off so that someone else becomes responsible to feed them.

In this Shortcast edition, Cal Newport, author of Digital Minimalism: Choosing a Focused Life in a Noisy World, shares how we can reclaim our time and attention by taking control of our relationship with digital technology. Rather than rejecting tech entirely, Cal proposes a minimalist approach—using technology with intention and only when it supports what truly matters. In this Shortcast, we explore: Digital Minimalism Defined: Cal explains how minimalism isn't about abandoning tech, but using it selectively and purposefully to maximize benefit and minimize distraction. The 30-Day Digital Declutter: A key process in Cal's philosophy—taking a 30-day break from optional digital tools to reflect, reset habits, and rediscover values. Clearing the Slate and Starting Fresh: Cal encourages removing all non-essential apps and tools, then rebuilding your digital life from the ground up based on what serves your goals. Embracing Analog Life: Real-world activities like solitude, deep conversation, and hands-on tasks are vital for human well-being—and often lost in a screen-saturated culture. Mental Health and Focus: Cal highlights how overuse of screens increases anxiety and fragments focus, while digital minimalism promotes clarity, calm, and purpose. Cal's insights are a powerful reminder that the goal isn't to use less tech, but to use it better—with clarity, intention, and aligned values.

On this episode of the Customers First podcast, I'm joined once again by Amy Kehs, a seasoned brand strategist and communication expert focused on enhancing the visitor experience in museums. With over two decades of experience in public relations, Amy has developed a deep understanding of how to foster meaningful connections between institutions and their audiences, particularly in the wake of the disruptions caused by the pandemic. In our discussion, Amy introduces her recently published ebook, "Building Connection in a Noisy World," which serves as a practical guide for museums striving to improve visitor engagement and retention. The book offers actionable insights and strategies to encourage repeat visits and cultivate lasting community relationships. Amy emphasizes the importance of seeing visitors not merely as one-time attendees but as potential lifelong advocates who will return and share their experiences with friends and family. We explore the concept of museums becoming community hubs, where they can forge strong connections with visitors. Through engaging anecdotes, such as the loyalty fostered by a favourite restaurant and the 'Cheers' effect, Amy illustrates how consistent, welcoming experiences can create a sense of belonging. She encourages institutions to embrace local partnerships and community events, creating traditions that invite people back again and again. A significant portion of our conversation revolves around the necessity of clear and consistent storytelling. Amy stresses that museums must clearly articulate their unique missions and values so that visitors understand their significance beyond the walls of the institution. This clarity not only makes their messaging more memorable but also drives engagement and fosters advocacy. Moreover, our dialogue highlights the critical role of the visitor experience—how the journey begins long before anyone walks through the doors. Amy outlines the need for a meticulously crafted digital presence as the first touchpoint, setting the stage for an impactful in-person experience. From effective signage to follow-up communications, she underscores the importance of every aspect of interaction in shaping visitor perceptions and fostering loyalty. As we wrap up, Amy imparts valuable advice to museums and businesses alike: building relationships doesn't require a hefty budget; it involves a commitment to community engagement and clear communication. Her book is described as not merely a textbook but a living resource filled with real-life applications that can be utilized to nurture relationships and enhance the overall customer experience, no matter the industry.

Clarity about who you want to be is essential. Identify what is important to you in the moment. Your next right step should be clear to avoid distractions. Distractions can be self-induced or divine interventions. Getting alone with God provides clarity and peace. Distractions pull us away from our intentions, muddling our clarity, and leaving us feeling unfulfilled. Whether it's a technical glitch during an important meeting, the constant buzz of notifications, or even emotional upheavals, distractions can derail our focus and peace.

From Nathaniel Baldwin's kitchen-table invention of headphones in 1910 to today's ubiquitous AirPods, our relationship with audio has transformed dramatically. We're constantly plugged in, listening to something—but are we tuning into what matters most?The advancement of audio technology is a powerful metaphor for our prayer lives. While we've mastered the art of speaking to God—powering up, plugging in, calling out—many of us struggle with the essential step of listening for His response. As Jesus reminds us, "My sheep listen to my voice, I know them and they follow me" (John 10:27). This isn't just poetic language; it's an invitation to authentic relationship where we're not just doing all the talking.God speaks in myriad ways—through creation's magnificent sounds, through spiritual leaders and worship, through His still small voice, and most consistently through Scripture. The challenge isn't whether God is speaking (He is), but whether we're creating space to hear Him. Through the practical "Seek Him, Speak Him" approach, we learn to ask three powerful questions: What is God saying through this passage? Why does this truth matter? How should I respond? Each question creates a natural pause for listening.This practice isn't just for personal growth—it's something we're called to model for those we disciple. Whether in short car conversations, around the dinner table, or through family messages, we have daily opportunities to demonstrate what it looks like to not just talk at God but to engage in genuine two-way conversation with Him. When we listen together, we grow together, and we amplify God's voice to the next generation.Ready to transform your prayer life? Download our Conversation Guide and discover how to put on your spiritual headphones, block out distractions, and truly hear what God is saying to you today.______________________The Family Disciple Me ministry exists to catalyze devotion driven discipleship in our homes and around the world.

Welcome to the Daily Living for Christ podcast. In this powerful episode, we introduce the ancient yet deeply relevant practice of Centering Prayer—a silent, contemplative form of prayer that opens the soul to God's presence and action within.Rooted in the early Christian contemplative tradition and reintroduced to the Western Church in the late 20th century, Centering Prayer is not a technique to achieve something from God, but a sacred way of consenting to His love, transformation, and divine will. Donald guides us through the biblical foundation of this practice, drawing from Matthew 6:6 and John 15:1-5, showing how Jesus invited us to a secret, abiding relationship with the Father through stillness and surrender.In this episode, you'll explore:✅ The origins and purpose of Centering Prayer in Christian tradition✅ The four core elements of the practice: Intention, Sacred word, Consent, and Humility✅ How silent prayer aligns with the call to “be still and know” God✅ The connection between kenosis (self-emptying) and spiritual growth✅ Practical guidance for starting Centering Prayer—including choosing a sacred word and managing distractionsWhether you are just beginning your contemplative journey or looking to go deeper in your prayer life, this episode will inspire you to create space for stillness, abide in God's love, and experience the fruitfulness that comes from spiritual attentiveness.Download this episode now, and remember to follow us so you don't miss the rest of this transformative series on sacred intention, stillness, and the contemplative path to wholeness in Christ."Have Questions, Send us a Message" This podcast is a production of The Center for Biblical Coaching and Leadership.

In this episode, Maggie Smith explores how to nurture creativity in a noisy world. A lot of people think creativity is something you do with a paintbrush or a poem but Maggie challenges us to think differently about creativity. It isn’t about what you make, but how you live. She dives into what it really means to be creative, even when you’re overwhelmed, unsure, and not feeling particularly inspired. And we tackle a bigger question: How do we keep creating when the world is so loud and we’re so tired? Key Takeaways: Insights on creativity and the challenges of staying inspired in a chaotic world. The role of intuition in the creative process and the significance of listening to one’s inner voice. Balancing the need to stay informed with personal well-being and mental health. The concept of hope in creativity and the idea of being a “possibilist.” Practical advice for overcoming creative blocks and finding inspiration. The value of feedback and community in the creative process. The relationship between restlessness and creativity, and how it can drive artistic growth.

Ever feel like you're drowning in a sea of noise? Like the world's chaos is cranked up to 11 and you can't hear yourself think? You're not alone, my friend. In this episode, we're diving deep into the art of staying calm when everything around us feels like it's going bonkers.Let's face it - our world is loud. From breaking news to social media pings, from work emails to family group chats, it's a constant barrage of information. And while some of this noise is important (hello, world-changing events!), a lot of it is just... well, noise. It's the kind of stuff that leaves us feeling drained, overwhelmed, and disconnected from our inner selves.The Three Types of NoiseThe wake-up call: This is the good noise that reminds us we're alive and part of something bigger.The pseudo-urgency: Those clickbait headlines designed to hack our nervous systems.The background static: The sneaky, everyday distractions that dull our intuition.Finding Your Calm in the StormBut don't worry, I've got your back. We'll talk about practical ways to turn down the volume and tune into what really matters. You'll learn how to:Pause and ask yourself key questions when you're feeling overwhelmedDistinguish between meaningful action and emotional reactionsGive yourself permission to rest and rechargeWhy It MattersHere's the kicker: finding calm isn't just about feeling good (though that's pretty awesome). It's about becoming the kind of person the world needs right now. Someone who's:Rooted, not reactiveSovereign, not scatteredClear and conscious, not caught up in the noiseRemember, you don't have to carry the weight of the world on your shoulders 24/7. It's not selfish to take care of yourself - it's absolutely necessary.So, if you're ready to find your zen in the middle of life's circus, tune in.

Many of the limitations we experience aren't caused by external factors but by the way we perceive ourselves and the world around us. In this session, I shared how judgment—both our own and the assumptions we make about others—can cloud our clarity and hold us back. Instead of seeking validation, we can shift our focus to what truly matters: living by our values, embracing the joy of missing out (JOMO), and making gratitude a daily habit. Real growth comes from small, consistent changes that align our actions with our purpose. By prioritizing what brings us fulfillment and surrounding ourselves with the right community, we create a clearer path to success.

Whether you're a leader, an influencer, or simply someone navigating today's information overload, this episode is a must-listen.Tune in and learn how to cultivate positive and responsible influence—without falling into the traps of misinformation and emotional bias.
