Feeling "too much" in ND chaos? In this episode of Adulting with Autism, host April celebrates neurodivergent superpowers with Sara Hartley, late-diagnosed ADHD mom of two ND boys, healthcare executive, certified ADHD/neurodiversity coach, and author of 13-book "Purposefully Me" series (affirmation-based learning for kids on neurodiversity/hard topics like anxiety/bullying/executive functioning). From cathartic shower breakdown to writing diverse characters/glossaries/discussion questions, Sara's Align Parenting Method empowers regulation/acceptance. Key insights: Late ADHD diagnosis (25): Post-college boredom/hyperfocus/procrastination; masking in "even keel" (decision fatigue); Lyme/parenting triggered awareness. ND parenting boys: Meltdowns from unprocessed emotions; empathy over anger (hold space, "two truths true"); affirmations at bedtime ("I am kind/smart/lovable/brave/enough/safe"). Align Method (A-L-I-G-N): Awareness (body cues like tight chest), Listen/Label (emotions), Identify triggers (bad day/sensory), Ground (walk/5-4-3-2-1/object focus/water sip), Nurture (connection/choice/grace). Dopamine hits: Healthy (walks/podcasts) vs. addictive (scrolling/shopping); bedtime vulnerability for processing (impressionable state). Burnout/shame: Yelling/internalized "not enough"; reframe as human (Catholic guilt spirals); experiment small (hi to vendor) for authenticity. Books for kids/young adults: 13 titles (ADHD/autism/anxiety/dyslexia/bullying/school drills); build confidence/less alone (recurring characters/conversations). Advice for authors/creatives: No credentials needed—write voice/purpose; find believer (book coach); trial/error builds momentum. For autistic/ADHD young adults/parents, Sara's vibe: "Uniqueness is strength—affirm/align to shine." Free Align Guide at sarahlewishartley.com; Instagram @sarahlewishartley (tips/books).

Kids need to feel that they're cared for and loved to develop in a healthy way. This doesn't mean that they get to do whatever they want in the home (they can't harm their siblings, for instance), but it does mean that they feel that they can have conflict without calling into question their basic worth.Hear this episode to understand how to nurture a field of love at home — which is the foundation of the Uplift "no-prep moment" program.
At BossMom, we're normalizing the conversations that help you grow a business while raising a family. In this episode, Dana opens up about the challenge of receiving love and support as a mom—and why we're often the ones standing in our own way. From realizing she never asked for her own Christmas stocking to understanding that people can't read our minds the way we read theirs, she shares the raw and honest truth about mom resentment, over-giving, and the guilt that comes with doing it all in silence. She explains how knowing what you want, identifying where you get resentful, and actually asking for help can transform your relationships and your boundaries. You don't need to do it all alone to be a good mom—you just need the courage to tell the people who love you how they can show up for you.

If this topic is sensitive or triggering to you, please listen at your discretion. We tend to think of overeating or eating when we're not hungry as a lack of willpower or discipline.

Garth Heckman The David Alliance TDAgiantSlayer@Gmail.com OT Expectation Psalm 36:7 (The Hebrew word for expectancy) 7 How precious is Your lovingkindness, O God! Therefore the children of men put their trust under the shadow of Your wings. **Covenant Culture** The phrase *“LOVING KINDNESS/steadfast love”* translates the Hebrew word **ḥesed**, which refers to **covenant loyalty**, not mere affection. In ancient Israel, ḥesed described God's faithful commitment to His people despite their failures. UNDER YOUR WINGS * **Intimacy** – closeness, not distant protection * **Nurture** – like a mother bird covering her young * **Divine Presence** – God is actively involved, not passively watching Protection **Key connection:** * Psalm 36 describes what God *is* * Jesus reveals what God *does* * Humanity's problem is not access, but **unwillingness - LACK OF TRUST/ OR EXPECTANCY to come under His covering**
Are you afraid to take Mary into your home? In this Sunday Peace on Earth reflection, Fr. Jonathan Meyer invites us to slow down, rest in the Lord, and prepare our hearts for Christmas by learning in the school of Mary. Drawing from the Gospel of Matthew (1:18–24), Father reflects on the angel's words to St. Joseph: “Do not be afraid to take Mary into your home.” That same invitation is given to us today — not just at Christmas, but as a way of living the Christian life. Mary shows us the pattern of discipleship: Receive. Conceive. Bring forth. Nurture. As Christmas approaches, this reflection encourages you to: Rest and be at peace Make intentional time for Mass, prayer, and adoration Pray the Rosary, especially the Joyful Mysteries Create space for real presence with family and friends Detach from technology and rediscover true joy Mary is not meant to be taken out for one season and put away. She is a model for every Christian, every day. Allow today to be a peaceful day — so you can truly have a merry Christmas. ▶️ Watch the full Peace on Earth playlist here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLuie34UwUVpjiIMU5qfKh59ctB2fW2_Tv

How to nurture the best in people with consistency and be remembered for what matters. This is going to be a different episode about a cake my nan used to make. But isn't just a story about cake. It's about the difference between control and nurture. My school thought resilience came from forcing kids to clear their plates (even if they ended up vomitting). They were wrong. My Nan knew that real strength comes from consistency. She made me the same pineapple upside-down cake every time I visited for a decade. Even when she went blind, she kept creating. She was an entrepreneur, an artist, and the village baker. She taught me that you don't build character by breaking someone's spirit. You build it by showing up. By paying attention. By finding the one thing they can stomach and giving it to them again and again. Nurture over control: You get more out of people by supporting their quirks than forcing compliance. Consistency is love: Showing up the same way for years builds more trust than grand gestures. Create despite limits: My Nan went blind and kept making things; focus on what you can do. Listen to learn how a simple cake became a masterclass in leadership and love. SPONSORS

Day 5: Nurture at the Root — Safety, Stability, and the First Chakra What if growth didn't require more effort—but more safety? In this Day 5 episode, we explore how true transformation depends on nurture at the most foundational level: the body. We dive into the first chakra as the energetic and neurological root of belonging, regulation, and sustainable change. You'll learn how the arc of growth bends downward before it rises, why the nervous system must feel safe before transformation can last, and how nurture is not a luxury—but a biological requirement for integration. This episode invites you to slow down, settle in, and discover how grounding practices, embodied care, and root-level safety create the conditions for real, lasting evolution. Because nothing meaningful grows without roots. ALL ABOUT THIS WEEK'S SERIES This week on The Daily Meditation Podcast, we're beginning a special 7-day meditation series designed to help you gently release emotional buildup and reconnect with a sense of calm, clarity, and inner balance. So many of us move through our days carrying emotions we never had time to process — lingering stress, emotional fatigue, or subtle tension that quietly accumulates. This series offers a supportive pause, giving your nervous system space to settle and your emotional world room to reset. Each day, you'll be guided through a short meditation with a specific emotional focus, following a gentle daily arc that builds naturally across the week. We'll move from releasing emotional residue, to resting and grounding the nervous system, to creating emotional boundaries, self-soothing, restoring balance, and finally embodying calm presence. You don't need to prepare, analyze, or do anything extra. Simply listening each day is enough. Each meditation stands on its own, while also supporting a deeper sense of emotional ease as the week unfolds. Whether you listen to one episode or join us for the full 7-day journey, this series is an invitation to slow down, soften, and reconnect with yourself. This is day 5 of a 7-day meditation series, "Emotional Reset: Your 7-Day Plan," episodes 3430-3436. YOUR WEEKLY CHALLENGE: "The Gentle Reset Challenge" Pause once daily. Hand on heart. Name the emotion. No fixing. THIS WEEK'S MEDITATION JOURNEY Day 1: Release Emotional Residue Visualization Day 2: Affirmation: "I allow my emotions to move through me with ease and compassion." Day 3: Physiological Sigh Day 4: Gyan mudra for emotional release Day 5: First Chakra to feel grounded Day 6: Release Flow meditation, combining the week's techniques Day 7: Weekly review meditation and closure SHARE YOUR MEDITATION JOURNEY WITH YOUR FELLOW MEDITATORS Let's connect and inspire each other!

At BossMom, we're normalizing the conversations that help you grow a business while raising a family. Dana sits down with Leah Remillet to tackle the guilt and hesitation that stops moms from pursuing their business dreams. From the gender gap in confidence (men apply for jobs at 60% qualified, women wait for 100%) to the damaging cultural myth that good mothers must sacrifice everything, Leah shares why that persistent business idea on your heart isn't accidental, it found you because you're meant to act on it. She reveals the truth about successful mom entrepreneurs: they don't do everything alone, they build systems that create freedom, and they bring their kids into the journey instead of hiding their ambitions. You don't need perfect credentials or the ideal setup to start building a business, you just need to stop waiting for permission that will never come and take action before that dream finds someone else who will.

What if the key to growing your clinic online isn't posting more - but posting with purpose?In this episode, we sit down with naturopath and strategist Rebecca Talia to explore a calmer, more strategic way for healthcare practitioners to show up on social media. Instead of chasing trends or feeling pressured to be perfect, Rebecca reframes social platforms as a living extension of your website, a place where prospective clients can hear your voice, understand your values, and get a sense of how you work.We unpack the fears that keep many clinicians silent: worrying about saying the “wrong” thing, looking unpolished, or being judged by peers. Rebecca replaces those fears with clarity of purpose - educate, connect, and invite. From there, we map the boundaries that make authenticity sustainable: what to keep private, how to protect your family and location, and why trust does not require vulnerability that feels unsafe or misaligned. You'll learn how a simple cadence of one to three posts per week is enough to build momentum, and how consistency outperforms volume every time.Then we move into the practical framework practitioners can start using today. Attraction posts help new people find you through plain-language education and myth-busting. Nurture posts deepen trust with behind-the-scenes process and de-identified case insights. Conversion posts offer clear, low-pressure invitations - book a discovery call, download a resource, or join an upcoming workshop. Rebecca also explains how “giving” content like recipes and checklists boosts saves and shares, expanding your reach so your invitations land with the right audience.If you've felt overwhelmed by algorithms, trends, or the pressure to overshare, this conversation brings relief, clarity, and an actionable roadmap. Subscribe, share with a colleague who needs a confidence boost, and let us know the one shift you'll make in your posting routine.Shownotes and references are available on the Designs for Health websiteRegister as a Designs for Health Practitioner and discover quality practitioner- only supplements at www.designsforhealth.com.au Follow us on Socials Instagram: Designsforhealthaus Facebook: Designsforhealthaus DISCLAIMER: The Information provided in the Wellness by Designs podcast is for educational purposes only; the information presented is not intended to be used as medical advice; please seek the advice of a qualified healthcare professional if what you have heard here today raises questions or concerns relating to your health

Nature has spent billions of years perfecting strategy, and those lessons can help leaders think more clearly about innovation. Rich Horwath sits down with Ines Garcia, author of Nature's Blueprint for Business, in this episode of Strategic Minds Podcast to explore how ecosystem principles can strengthen the way organizations work and grow. She shows why leaders must stay attuned and responsive to their environment, just as ecosystems do when they face tension and change. Ideas like ecotones and “bending without breaking” highlight how the space between teams can spark the most innovation. Listeners gain a new lens for strategy and instead of adding complexity, tap into natural patterns that have been refined over billions of years. The result is smarter innovation, stronger collaboration, and environments where people and ideas can truly flourish.

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.

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.

Asking for Good: Fundraisers help you launch your Nonprofit Career
Dacia Moore, LPC, NBCC dives right into one of the biggest and all too common drawbacks of the nonprofit sector: BURNOUT. She draws from her training as a Licensed Professional Counselor, nonprofit executive search partner and personal experience with burnout to teach us how to manage our own emotional regulation and find long-term success in the nonprofit sector. Nurture a Championship Mindset. This isn't about winning a sports trophy. This is about resilience, optimism, and a burning desire to work with excellence. It sounds like, “I'm in this for the long haul, we're doing a good job and getting better everyday.” Acknowledge what needs to be improved and give the most energy to what works well. Avoid perfectionism, it will kill you. Sweeping your own doorstep, an idea she learned from Mother Theresa. Do what you can and what's in front of you. In a nonprofit leadership context this means not doing other people's job instead delegate and trust your staff. Then support the staff. Nonprofit leaders need to provide direction and vision and then move over to let staff execute.Remember that your piece, whatever it is matters. You matter and we can think about a tiny bolt to illustrate this. There was a bolt that got loose and an airplane door flew off midflight. Leaders need to focus on their part. Be the bolt, don't try to be the bolt, the plane, the FAA…And as you are working, remember that we all play to mixed reviews. In any group, you will have 40% with you, 40% not with you and 20% on the fence. Recognize the negativity bias, spend the bulk of your energy on those who are on the fence and those who are with you. As a job seeker, try to determine if the organization has healthy boundaries. Ask about the last person who was in this role, how long did they stay? What are the key traits of the next person who fills this role? How does the person that is interviewing you maintain healthy boundaries? Consider the interview process, was it designed to allow conversation or were you as a candidate just grilled by staff? Dacia leaves us with two big ideas: If Oprah and Michelle Obama can do it, so can you. Think of those who you admire. They're all human. If they can figure out how to achieve excellence and have balance, then you can too. Protect your mental and physical health; they are too important not to take care of them. The nonprofit sector needs leaders who can sustain their energy and keep coming back to do this challenging work.Resources: DaciaMoore.com From Stuck to Unstoppable: 5 Strategies for Getting Your Second WindABOUT THE GUEST:For eight years, Dacia L. Moore served as the Executive Director of a non-profit organization, driving its significant growth and success as a vibrant community resource.

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.

Send us a textThese three writers all wrote just one novel of renown but they were gargantuan titles. We celebrate their impact on American Literature in this episode. 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.

Therapy is necessary for many of us as we heal from childhood trauma and therapy is typically 1 hour a week. That leaves 167 other hours where we may be depressed, anxious, spinning out, criticising ourselves, living in fear or stressed about our own emotions. In this episode Cath shares some of the books that have helped her move from living in fear, books that have helped dealing with grief, despair, relationship patterns and books that have helped with compassion, understanding addiction and more. This episode contains personal stories from Cath to illustrate these points.Cath also talks about mirroring and containment and how many of us have to learn to do this for ourselves when we have not had this sufficiently done in childhood.

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.
