Sign up for the General Fellowship to receive event invitations directly in your inbox.This episode of Here and Now comes from an event at Spirit Rock Meditation Center on July 31, 2000. Ram Dass begins by exploring how Shiva is the aspect of God that rules over change. He talks about changing our self-concept from identification with our egos to identification with our souls. Devotional chanting, or kirtan, is one way to work on transforming ourselves. Speaking about merging with the Beloved, Ram Dass shares how his relationship with his guru evolved after Neem Karoli Baba left his body. He talks about the place of joy that exists inside all of us. That's the yum-yum place.Jai Uttal takes over and leads a rousing kirtan to connect us all to that yum-yum place. He begins by explaining the chant: “Sita Ram, Sita Ram, Sita Ram, Jai Sita Ram. Sita, the infinite Goddess. Ram, the infinite God. Jai or Jaya, praise or victory.”About Jai Uttal:Jai Uttal is a Grammy-nominated sacred music composer, recording artist, multi-instrumentalist, and ecstatic vocalist. Having traveled extensively in India, he met many great saints and singers, and Bhakti Yoga became his personal path. Jai has been leading, teaching, and performing kirtan around the world for nearly 50 years. He creates a safe environment for people to open their hearts and voices.

They're like hard on the outside, but they're soft and yum, yum, yum inside. We are just chocolate-covered cherries. That's all we are. And that yum, yum, yum, yum, that's the joy, that's the bhakti. Yum, yum, yum, yum.

As we get older we can see the importance, if not the urgency, to savor every moment that we have been given by the Lord. The Christmas season brings a heightened awareness of this reality. In a season where we are going to find ourselves in lots of rooms and around lots of table...some we are excited about and some that we aren't so excited about...let us stop and ask what kind of presence we bring. As believers may we feel the calling and the delight to bring the Lord's presence to those we will be around. He has ordained those specific moments and individuals. In this series we will look at four traits of those who seemingly walk in a nearness to the Lord and so bless those in their company. DNA Questions - Psalm 107Discover:What are the redeemed of the Lord saying?What is the common denominator throughout this chapter?What do the upright see? Nurture:Which of scenarios in this chapter do you resonate with most?What does it look like to "attend to these things"?What evidence do you have that the Lord is working redemptively in your life? Act:What would it look like for you to be intentional about giving thanks to the Lord?What area of your life do you need to cry out to the Lord whose love is steadfast and enduring for deliverance?
At BossMom, we're normalizing the conversations that help you grow a business while raising a family. In this episode, Dana breaks down the critical difference between sharing that builds your business and sharing that kills sales. She explores the concept of wounds versus scars—why sharing too soon can make customers back away, and how waiting for the lessons to crystallize creates content that converts. From her own experience with grief tanking her revenue to learning when vulnerability becomes a powerful teaching tool, Dana gives you the framework to know exactly what to share online and when to share it.

In this episode Cath reflects on how rage may be one of the most common experiences in motherhood (particularly if we have had childhood trauma). She speaks about getting to know our own rage, the shame we might feel and how that might derail us and trying to understand what our rage might be protecting us from. She uses one of the books she talked about last week to springboard into this conversation and highlights psychological patterns by telling a couple of anecdotes.The workshop mentioned in the podcast, can be found here: www.cathcounihan.com/triggers-workshopIf you're enjoying this podcast.

Harper Lee offered several writing tips centered on persistence, humility, and the importance of craft over reward. She emphasized a love for language and a dedication to writing for oneself. Key Writing Tips from Harper LeeDevelop a thick hide Write for yourself A writer worth their salt writes to please an audience of one: themselves. Writing is a self-exploratory process, an exorcism of "divine discontent," not a pursuit for external validation or monetary gain.Be a steady, slow worker Embrace the revision process Master the English sentence Write what you know and use vivid imagery Nurture the creative spirit Fundamentally, Lee's advice was to focus on the integrity of the work and the process itself, hoping for the best but expecting nothing in return.J.D. Salinger's writing approach prioritized authenticity, a distinctive narrative voice, and emotional depth achieved through minimalist prose and realistic dialogue. His tips for writers can be distilled into the following principles: Write for yourself, first and foremostPrioritize a strong, authentic voiceEmbrace minimalism and precisionKnow your characters inside and outUse naturalistic dialogueWork with focus and disciplineRead extensivelyMargaret Mitchell's writing tips and style emphasize thorough research, relentless rewriting, and a simple, direct prose. She prioritized her creative work and was known for working methodically on a single project at a time. Key Writing TipsPrioritize writing above all elseEmbrace rewriting: She famously said, "I do not write with ease, nor am I ever pleased with anything I write. And so I rewrite". She emphasized that "Pulitzer-type writing... comes in the rewriting".Research thoroughlyWrite with simplicity and clarityFocus on the story and what mattersPlan meticulously but be flexibleWork with discipline and enduranceAvoid digressionsWork on one project at a timePersonal Habits and Style"Show, Don't Tell" (selectively)Character and dialogue-drivenGumption is keyAnswer fan mail Questions or comments at , Randalrgw1@aol.com , https://twitter.com/randal_wallace , and http://www.randalwallace.com/Please Leave us a review at wherever you get your podcastsThanks for listening!!

At BossMom, we're normalizing the conversations that help you grow a business while raising a family. In this episode, Dana sits down with Dr. Shannon Irvine to explore why your brain actively works against your business growth—and how to rewire it. From hitting invisible revenue ceilings to the "I'll just do it myself" trap that keeps mom entrepreneurs stuck, Shannon shares the neuroscience behind why all your strategies aren't working. She reveals how limiting beliefs programmed in childhood create subconscious patterns that sabotage success, and walks through her proven 67-day framework for building new neural pathways that make scaling, delegating, and wealth feel safe. You don't need more hustle or willpower—you need to understand how your brain works and intentionally rewire it for the success you're building.

If your marketing swings from frantic bursts to total silence, you're not alone—and you're not broken. We've seen the same pattern in studios and remodelers for years: a few social posts, a one-off newsletter, a trade show, then disappearing when jobs heat up. The result is a lead drought that shows up right when you're busiest. We're changing that with a straightforward, design-first framework that turns scattered tasks into a system you can run even on a packed calendar.We break down the five pillars every design or remodeling business needs: foundation, visibility, authority, nurture, and sales. Foundation starts with your website as the hub you control, supported by practical SEO and a complete Google Business Profile so you're visible in local search. Visibility is about consistent presence where homeowners and builders already look. Authority builds trust through PR, media mentions, and awards that shorten sales cycles and raise perceived value. Nurture keeps relationships warm with value-first emails and thoughtful check-ins that turn single projects into repeat work and referrals. Sales ties it all together with a clear path from inquiry to signed agreement, backed by simple steps and follow-ups that convert.You'll hear real stories that prove small changes move fast. A designer who lived on Facebook rebuilt their foundation after a six-week shutdown and stabilized lead flow. An academy member who felt intimidated by PR landed a Forbes mention within a month once they focused. A celebrated interior designer revived “dead” email by switching to an 80-20 value mix and watched opens and conversions climb. We finish with a quick-start plan for 2026: pick one pillar for Q1, set one action you can complete, and choose one person to keep you accountable. No 60-page plan. Just momentum you can feel.Ready to ditch random marketing and build a system that holds up under real-world workload?

As the year draws to a close and families begin to look toward January with fresh hope, this episode invites moms to consider the quiet, powerful work God is already doing beneath the surface. Rachael Culpepper and Natalie Ambrose explore how the seeds of faith planted today can flourish throughout 2026—not because of our perfect consistency, but because of God's unwavering faithfulness. Drawing from the imagery of tending soil and nurturing growth, they encourage families to start the New Year anchored in God's Word, trusting that He has already prepared the way ahead. Reflecting on Patti Garibay's Raising Godly Girls Minute, Rachael and Natalie talk about the value of looking back with gratitude while also stepping forward with confidence in God's mercy, as beautifully expressed in Deuteronomy 4:29–31. They remind listeners that God is present in the days we have already lived and present in the ones we have not yet walked. With warmth and honesty, they discuss Biblical literacy, simple tools to spark a deeper love for Scripture, and how small, faithful steps can yield meaningful growth over a full calendar year. The conversation also highlights the importance of community in cultivating spiritual habits. Drawing from Ecclesiastes 4:12, Rachael and Natalie encourage families to pursue Bible study together, to invite accountability, and to lean on other believers when distractions or discouragement arise. They share how planned moments of praise throughout the year—intentional pauses to recognize God's goodness—can shape a family's posture toward worship and gratitude, echoing the joyful invitation of Psalm 105:2–3. As always, the episode closes with three simple truths to carry into the week: start in gratitude for God's provision in 2025 and His promise for 2026; nurture and cultivate your family's time in God's Word with community and intentional rhythms; and plan moments of praise now, trusting that God will meet you in every season of the year ahead. This New Year conversation is a gentle, hope-filled reminder that when families plant their faith in God's truth, He brings growth in His perfect timing. Scripture References in This Episode: Deuteronomy 4:29–31 Ecclesiastes 4:12 Psalm 105:2–3 Three Points to Remember This Week: Start your family's 2026 journey in gratitude for the God who carried you through 2025. Nurture and cultivate your time in God's Word with intentionality, community, and consistency. Plan times of praise now, trusting that God will shepherd your family through every month of the coming year. Visit raisinggodlygirls.com for more encouragement and faith-based parenting tools.

At BossMom, we're normalizing the conversations that help you grow a business while raising a family. In this episode, Dana addresses the spiral every mom entrepreneur knows too well: when your brain has 80,000 tabs open and everything feels equally important. She reveals how we condition everyone around us to need us, making it impossible to prioritize effectively. Dana introduces the FEE test and ROI framework to help you distinguish between being busy and being productive, shares why not all time with your kids has the same value (and why that's okay), and explains the three-step process to pull yourself back when you're overwhelmed. From the guilt of wasted time to the reality of managing multiple "babies" in your business, she gets honest about what it takes to stop spiraling. You don't need a perfect system—you just need clarity on what actually moves the needle.

Watch the full episode on our YouTube channel: youtube.com/@mreapodcastSelena Soo joins us to share the roadmap to building a million-dollar network, the same network that turned her into a USA Today bestselling author and helped countless entrepreneurs grow thriving, referral-based businesses. In this episode, we explore the core of her book, Rich Relationships: Create a Million Dollar Network for Your Business. Selena walks us through her 3-part framework: Build, Nurture, Activate. Each part teaches us how to identify our “rich relationships”: people who want to see us win, create financial abundance, and inspire us to be our best selves. We unpack her strategies for staying top of mind through “pinging,” creating powerful gatherings, and practicing “breathtaking generosity.” Selena also shares how to set up a “Generosity Fund” to strengthen your network, and why the very best relationships are built on giving without strings attached. It's not about how many people you know, it's about how deeply you know them.

In this conversation, Tamara Rosier discusses the concept of different 'operating systems' in individuals, particularly in the context of ADHD. She explains how the amygdala plays a crucial role in emotional responses and how those with ADHD may experience heightened emotions due to the amygdala's constant search for potential threats.

For something that we do every single day, and something that has the power to change every aspect of our life, we sure don't focus on, train, or develop it. And, that thing is conversation. Nothing great ever happened in your life without, first, a conversation – no promotions, no jobs, no clients, no dates, nothing. My guest today, Payam Pakmanesh (known as "The Convo Guy") is here to explain why and, more importantly, how we can build and develop our ability to communicate more effectively. We cover the proper principles of communication, Adlerian Psychology and how it helps you focus on what you can control, the "Zoom Flow" model for deeper connection, how to make yourself more approachable, and becoming aware of how others perceive you.

#679 If you've been posting on social media and still not seeing growth, this conversation explains exactly why! In this episode, host Kirsten Tyrrel sits down with social media expert and former theater-kid-turned-entrepreneur, Jenna Harding, to pull back the curtain on Instagram strategy for service-based business owners. Jenna shares how she went from resisting social media to running a thriving agency and teaching entrepreneurs how to grow, nurture, and sell with intentional content. She breaks down the three core types of Instagram posts, why most service providers get stuck in “nurture mode,” and how to simplify growth by having a plan, creating engaging formats, and letting imperfect posts hit the feed. If you've been consistent on social but still not growing, this episode is a mindset-reset and a tactical masterclass in using Instagram as a real business tool — not just a creative outlet! What we discuss with Jenna: + Transition from actor to social media expert + Why service providers over-focus on nurture content + Growth vs. nurture vs. sales posts + How intentional planning beats random posting + B-roll, hooks, and engaging formats + Getting over perfection and “just posting” + Why engagement attractors matter + Selling a little all the time + Making content fun and personal Thank you, Jenna!

Cath was joined by art psychotherapist Gerardine Boyle in this episode. Cath and Gerardine talked about how generational trauma impacts families, the legacy of emotional neglect, what is unspoken, shame and the complexity of unwinding functional freeze in the system. Gerardine generously shared her own stories of generational trauma and what she believes has impacted her on her journey. We talked briefly about primitive reflexes and how the retention of these can be extremely impactful for nervous system and mental health. Gerardine Boyle is an Art Psychotherapist who has worked for over twenty years in Adult Psychiatry in the HSE (health service in Ireland) and in private practice. She is also trained in the Diamond Approach, the Hearing Voices Approach and she was part of a specialised HSE team delivering Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) for seven years, supporting individuals with high levels of emotional dysregulation. Gerardine trained as a Transforming Touch Practitioner with Dr Stephen Terrell world expert in working with developmental trauma at the first training workshop in Ireland (in Cork in 2019) and this training has been life-changing for her and her clients. She continues to marvel at how supporting the nervous system powerfully lends itself to healing on all levels. Supporting the nervous system means the client, over time gets to know and trust their own nervous system better and shame is addressed on a somatic level. Gerardine's website is https://morninglighttherapy.ie/She works in person and offers intensives, which is multiple therapy sessions over a number of days (with client staying locally in east Cork, Ireland). She also delivers the therapy on line via zoom as well.The link to the training in Dublin with Dr Stephen Terrell is, https://www.austinattach.com/transforming-the-experience-based-brain/dublin-ireland/ and this training welcomes parents, therapists and individuals on their own healing journey.If you're enjoying this podcast.

Today's sermon focused on Ephesians 6:4 and the calling of parents to raise their children in a way that honors God. Using personal stories and humor, we explored the reality that children need parents—not just friends or providers, but guides who lovingly set boundaries, train, and instruct. We discussed the dangers of provoking children to anger through unreasonable demands, inconsistency, or conditional love, and contrasted that with the biblical call to “bring them up” through clear, consistent, and just discipline and instruction. The goal is not simply good behavior, but to point our children to the awe and majesty of Jesus Christ, modeling a life of faith, prayer, and joy.
There is a truth given to us by Jesus that we need to believe. It's actually to our advantage that Christ would go to the Father SO that the Spirit could be sent to us. The hope in this series would be that we would come to believe this as ardently as Jesus, Himself AND that we would long to know and enjoy all that we have in the Person and work of the Holy Spirit of God.

At BossMom, we're normalizing the conversations that help you grow a business while raising a family. Dana and Krista get real about why starting a business might be the smartest parenting move you'll ever make—not just for the income, but for the life skills your kids absorb by watching you. They discuss breaking rules vs. following them, teaching autonomy through example, and why hiding your struggles from your kids means they miss the entire lesson. Krista shares how her 16-year-old daughter Bri landed her first job after watching her mom fearlessly approach local business owners, and Dana explains why she believes 100% of moms should have a business—even if it's small, seasonal, or just brings in vacation money. This is an empowering, slightly ranty conversation for any mom who wants to raise kids who question the status quo and create their own path.

At BossMom, we're normalizing the conversations that help you grow a business while raising a family. A woman in a flowing gown and heels carefully straps on knee pads, positions herself at the top of a staircase, and deliberately throws herself down the stairs. It sounds absurd. Maybe even reckless. But when you understand why Michelle Lang does this—and what it represents—it becomes one of the most honest conversations about motherhood you'll ever encounter. After 12 years away from her career as a professional stunt performer, Lang has returned to throwing herself off buildings, getting hit by cars, and tumbling down staircases. But this isn't just about revisiting old skills. It's about what happens when mothers finally get enough mental space to ask themselves a devastating question: "Who am I if I'm not just someone's mom?"

In the design industry, clarity is power. Whether you're running a firm with a business partner, leading a solo practice with or without a team, or collaborating with your spouse, like today's guests, how you divide tasks can make or break your projects and your business. Marli Jones and Michael Kreuser share how they define their roles, delegate responsibilities like procurement and project management, and rely on trusted team members to keep every project running smoothly. There's real value in having clear job descriptions—for project managers, operations managers, and even for yourself—so that creativity can flourish without chaos. In this episode: - Establish clear roles and responsibilities—clarity eliminates confusion. - Define ownership and decision-making authority from the start. - Use contracts and agreements to keep partnerships clean and professional. - Build systems and processes before you delegate. - Separate creative work from operations for balance and efficiency. - Foster a culture that accepts mistakes and learns from them. - Choose clients based on fit, not just project size or budget. - Let process create space for creativity and innovation. - Empower your team with trust, autonomy, and shared accountability. - Nurture strong relationships with clients, trades, and vendors.
