Podcasts about nurturing

In this episode of Hope Prose, Tara continues her personal journey on why she started writing in a conversation with an author who has greatly inspired her own writing journey in recent years through his gentle stories and guidance as an author and teacher. Ethan Joella teaches English and psychology at the University of Delaware, but also shares his time and expertise with nighttime novelists. He lives in the picturesque town of Rehoboth Beach, which Tara may have visited after reading his novel, The Same Bright Stars. Ethan is also the author of A Little Hope, A Read with Jenna Bonus Pick, A Quiet Life, and his soon-to-be-released novel, The Top of the World. Listen in as they talk about Ethan's first unofficial literary agent, why he is drawn to reading and writing stories about beautiful moments within our everyday strains and gains, how he pulls on his poetic side to craft his novels, and his advice to writers about moving on when in a writing rut.  You can find out more about Ethan at ethanjoella.com. Tara highly encourages you to check out his entire repertoire, including his newest release, at browseaboutbooks.com  in Rehoboth Beach or your local indie bookstore. The Hope Prose Podcast's InstagramAlex's Instagram Tara's Instagram

Send us Fan MailToday's episode is a Q&A grab bag, packed with the best questions that have come in so far this year. These are the real issues designers are navigating right now, and while some of the questions are too specific to stretch into a full deep dive episode on their own, together they create a powerful, practical conversation.This is the episode to listen to if you want clear direction, language you can use with clients, and smart business moves you can implement this week to protect your time, your profit, and your peace.A major theme you'll hear throughout this Q&A is this: when things get quiet, it is usually easier to create momentum with the relationships you already have than it is to start from zero with strangers. Nurturing current clients, reactivating past clients, and staying connected to referral partners is often the fastest and healthiest path back to a full pipeline.In this episode, we cover:What to do when the phone goes quiet and your pipeline slows down, without spirallingHow to create momentum by nurturing current clients before chasing brand new leadsHow to reactivate past clients in a way that feels confident, not desperateWhat to say when referral partners are your fastest path to new projectsHow to have the tariff and price increase conversation with clarity and credibilityHow to raise prices without losing the client by presenting options and a planHow to respond to the “double dipping” objection and explain your procurement model with confidenceWhy scope creep is often a pricing and process problem, not a client problemHow to create boundaries that actually hold through clearer deliverables, approvals, and revision limitsWhat AI is actually worth your time in a design business, and what to keep off limitsWhy some small firms are quietly closing and what the firms who survive are doing differentlyHow to build a business that does not burn you out, through systems, capacity, and boundariesKey takeawaysSlow seasons are normal, but spiralling is optional. Switch into CEO mode and take strategic action.Your fastest wins often come from the people who already know you: current clients, past clients, and referral partners.Clear communication protects profit. Most client pushback starts where your process is unclear.Procurement is a service. When you explain it like a service, clients stop treating it like a transaction.Scope creep thrives in vague processes. Build fee structures and approvals that prevent it from starting.AI is an assistant, not a decision maker. Use it for drafts and systems, not creative direction or exact details.Burnout is a business model problem, not a personal weakness. Structure creates freedom.Mentioned in the episodeIf you have not embraced AI yet, do not worry. You are not behind, you are just busy. We have a beginner's guide to implementing ChatGPT and Claude available in our shop. It walks you through how to set up your brand voice, set up your bots, and get started using AI in your business in a way that actually makes sense for interior designers.In just one focused hour, we'll dive into whatever you need most—pricing strategies, client management, attracting high-end clients or building repeat business.

Watch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/F8UJDgFt8pE In Episode 344 of the Glass and Out Podcast, we welcome Development Coach with the Utah Mammoth, Nathaniel Brooks. Brooks presented at our 2023 edition of TCS Live. At the time, he was an Associate Coach at Toronto Metropolitan University (formerly Ryserson University), where he spent seven seasons. Later that summer, he was hired as a Development Coach by the Arizona Coyotes, a role he has continued to evolve in since the franchise's move to Utah. The Mammoth are flush with young superstars and incoming prospects. But stockpiling talent is only half the battle in the NHL. Nurturing those prospects into everyday NHLers is the tricky part. You can check out his on-ice presentation on optimizing offensive zone play through position over possession now on The Coache Site. Listen as he shares how he defines the fundamentals, how to improve a player's play away from the puck, and the process of skill stacking.

Throughout a career spanning roles as a teacher, BBC television producer, coach and prolific author, Jenny Rogers has never been afraid of getting things wrong.In this episode of The Coach's Journey Podcast, the executive coach, supervisor, trainer and author of coaching titles such as Are You Listening? tells host Neil Mackinnon about the vital importance of experimentation and of embracing our mistakes in order to benefit from a lifetime of learning experiences that make us better coaches and ground us in our humanity.Jenny flies the flag for a whole-life perspective in coaching, eschewing narrow approaches in favour of a style that acknowledges the way our personal and working lives are inextricably intertwined, and makes room for all the parts of us.A deep interest in psychotherapy has enriched Jenny's coaching practice and she highlights the modalities that fascinate her the most, as well as the key therapeutic ideas and techniques that are readily transferrable to any coaching practice.Jenny also discusses her latest books, which address important questions about navigating boundaries as a new coach and working through the challenges many women face in midlife.This episode is full of sage advice drawn from a wonderfully diverse, rich career in coaching and creativity, shared by a practitioner whose dauntless spirit of curiosity and passion for understanding human relationships is as infectious as it is inspiring.Jenny and Neil also talk about:- The relationship between trauma-aware coaching and psychodynamic therapy- Nurturing a healthy writing practice and overcoming creative blocks- How we accumulate rigid ways of thinking, and why it is hard to make change on your own- The art of embodying a place of non-judgement, and offering challenge with compassionTHINGS WE TALKED ABOUT THAT YOU MIGHT BE INTERESTED IN:- Jenny Rogers https://www.jennyrogers.com- BBC https://www.bbc.co.uk- Delia Smith https://www.deliaonline.com- Madhur Jaffrey https://www.madhurjaffrey.com- BBC Two https://www.bbc.co.uk/bbctwo- BBC Books https://www.penguin.co.uk/company/publishers/bbc-books- Columbia University https://www.columbia.edu- Management Futures https://www.managementfutures.co.uk- Are You Listening (book) https://www.penguin.co.uk/books/111/1115931/are-you-listening/9780241973986.html- Julia Vaughan-Smith https://www.juliavaughansmith.com- Nscience https://nscience.uk- Franz Ruppert https://www.franz-ruppert.de/en/- Irvin Yalom https://www.yalom.com- The Gift of Therapy (book) https://www.harpercollins.com/products/the-gift-of-therapy-irvin-d-yalom- Carl Rogers https://www.britannica.com/biography/Carl-Rogers- Gabor Mate https://www.upaya.org/person/dr-gabor-mate- University College Hospital London https://www.uclh.nhs.uk- Guildhall School of Music & Drama https://www.gsmd.ac.uk- How Not to Be a Doctor, by John Launer https://www.duckworthbooks.co.uk/book/how-not-to-be-a-doctor/- Barbican Centre https://www.barbican.org.uk- City of London Corporation https://www.cityoflondon.gov.uk- EMCC Global https://www.emccglobal.org- ILM https://www.institutelm.com- Coaches Training Institute (Co-Active) https://coactive.comBIOGRAPHY FROM JENNYI am an executive coach, coach trainer and supervisor, and accreditation assessor for APECS, the premier coaching accreditation body of the UK. Along with these roles, I am a writer, textile artist, cook, grandmother and keen walker. Thirty five years ago, I was an early entrant to the world of coaching, after earlier careers in teaching, television production and publishing. Typically, my clients are facing a major transition in their lives and find that a coaching perspective is the key to finding solutions that work. As a coach I work with senior clients in the law, medicine, finance, healthcare, performing arts and media along with volunteer roles for severely disadvantaged women. I consider myself to be a leader in a new approach to coaching which combines insights from psychotherapy with the pragmatic emphasis on change that distinguishes the best coaching traditions.I was honoured to win the Henley Business School Award for Outstanding Contribution to Coaching in 2019. My books include Are You Listening? a book of coaching stories published by Penguin Random House in 2021. I have written 9 other books on coaching, including Coaching Skills: the definitive guide to being a coach. A fifth edition, much updated, was published in 2024. My latest book, Fearless Coaching, will be published in 2026 and a book for women in mid-life (title TBD) in early 2027 by Octopus Books.

What if the reason you're losing business has nothing to do with your service and everything to do with being forgotten? This week we're taking a break from InSights and Take the Stage to bring you a replay of Lunch with Haley, hosted by Brad Smith (Chief Strategy Officer, Haley Marketing). Brad reveals why the staffing firms that consistently win aren't necessarily the best firms. They're simply the ones that stay visible long enough to be there when opportunity strikes. About the Guest Brad Smith is the Chief Strategy Officer at Haley Marketing and a Certified Inbound Marketing professional who has helped hundreds of staffing and recruiting firms implement effective digital marketing strategies. He specializes in translating emerging marketing trends and technologies into practical growth strategies for staffing organizations. Key Takeaways Consistency creates opportunities that luck cannot. The firms that stay visible win more business. Education builds trust faster than selling. Nurturing outperforms persistence alone. Relationships grow when value comes before the ask. Timestamps [00:44] – Why staffing is a timing business [03:31] – The costly “I didn't know you did that” [06:42] – The math behind winning new accounts [08:44] – Why sales teams need marketing air cover [11:06] – Building trust through systematic nurturing [13:32] – Why education beats hard selling [15:21] – The powerful 3x3 relationship matrix [19:23] – The multiplier effect of multi-channel marketing [22:14] – Branded publications that drive conversations [26:55] – Why print mail stands out again [31:41] – Automating touches without losing personalization [42:20] – Using Challenger insights to create demand Sponsors InSights is presented by Haley Marketing.

In this powerful message from Genesis 8, we explore the question: Which nature are you nurturing? Noah released both a raven and a dove... but each responded very differently to the world around them.  The raven found comfort in death and decay. The dove found no resting place and returned to the safety of the ark. This sermon will challenge you to examine your own heart and ask: What am I allowing my spirit to settle on? What have I become comfortable with? What kind of nature is growing in me?  If you've been feeling convicted, stretched, or called deeper in your walk with God, this message is for you. It's a strong reminder that not everything around us is meant to have a place in us. Are we feeding the flesh, or are we nurturing the Spirit of God within us? 

This week, Scott was joined by Rev Tamika Nelson, executive director of United Campus Ministries of Greater Houston. Rev.

United Campus Ministry serves the UT School of Medicine, HCC locations, Texas Southern University, UHD, and Rice University.   Tamika has also participated in Houston Faith Votes, so Scott and Tamika discussed her ministry with young adults and how they are talking about our current policy climate, their leadership in the civic engagement space, and their barriers to participation.  We hope you enjoy this episode and invite a friend to listen along.

Have you ever sat down to work on your marketing and immediately felt overwhelmed? Like you're doing all the things, posting, emailing, networking, trying to “figure out TikTok” and somehow it still feels random? I get it because I lived it. In this episode of Doing Business Like a Woman, I'm teaching my simple marketing system that I've been practicing myself and teaching my clients for 20 years. These are the exact shifts that helped my clients and me streamline marketing and start creating more clients, more consistency, and more confidence. And as a gift, I'm sharing my one-page marketing plan workbook with you: https://www.melissamkellogg.com/OnePageMarketingPlan Because what I know to be true is this: You do not need more strategies.

Rev Carrie Holley-Hurt's service delivered on May 10, 2026. The origin stories of Mother's Day were a cry for peace and an attempt to acknowledge the work of nurturing that goes unrewarded in a patriarchal society. While the day has become about the physical act of bearing and/or rearing children, the origins speak to something more radical, the transforming power of nourishing and providing care. Rev. Carrie unpacks this holiday and any gifts it might have for us.

Today's Scripture: Proverbs 22:6The nurturing love of a VIBRANT church is a testament to the holy strength of God's Spirit alive in every believing heart. For all who place their trust in Jesus, God nurtures in us a hope beyond this life, the promise of resurrection, and the joy of being with him forever, a union that begins here and now.

In this soothing episode, "I Am Nurturing My Body and Soul," you are invited to embrace a gentle journey of self-care and compassion. Allow the serene affirmations to wrap around you like a warm embrace, reminding you of the importance of nurturing both your body and spirit. This peaceful meditation provides the perfect backdrop for relaxation, sleep, or stress relief, guiding you to a place of deep tranquility. As you release the weight of your day, let each word fill you with comfort and assurance. Close your eyes, press play, and let go.

Are you a woman blessed with the gift of a wonderful mother-in-law? We can hardly think of a more important relationship. Through the ages, this mentoring friendship has sealed families and nurtured them. Likewise, we easily see the pain inflicted when this relationship isn't good.In the Old Testament, we read of a really remarkable mother-in-law. She showed great kindness to a young woman at just the right moment.After returning home to Bethlehem after a famine is over, Naomi wants the best for her young daughter-in-law, Ruth, whose husband has died. Although she must have longed for security herself and companionship, Naomi encourages Ruth to marry Boaz. Eventually, Ruth has a son, Obed, who would become the grandfather of King David!Ruth 1:22 says, “So Naomi returned from Moab accompanied by Ruth the Moabite, her daughter-in-law, arriving in Bethlehem as the barley harvest was beginning.”Naomi's unselfish act, her encouragement to the vulnerable Ruth, is the model for all such relationships. It is intentionally about the other person. It is the story of a woman mentoring and loving another she sees as her daughter.So, how will your mother-in-law's story be recorded? Have you thought about that?How will the women in your family remember you?Let's pray.Lord, people are watching us in how we treat others. Nowhere is that more important than in our own homes. Help us think of others before we think of ourselves. In Jesus' name, amen. Change your shirt, and you can change the world!

In this rich and heart-opening dialogue, I welcome acclaimed playwright, theater director, author, and creative visionary Stan Lai, joining me from Shanghai, to explore creativity, wisdom, theater, trust, and the living art of being human. Stan shares insights from his book creativiRy, and together we look at how true creativity needs both method and wisdom — the tools and the music, the craft and the soul. His play Secret Love in Peach Blossom Land was chosen by The New York Times as one of the “Essential Works of Theater” of the last 100 years — one of only 20 plays selected, and the only work from Asia included. May this conversation invite us to embrace the creativity of life, create from sincerity and compassion, and let our light shine into the world.

We have willingly been mentally restrained by technology, daily gifting our captors the mental cuffs to keep us psychologically bound. Haven't you realized this yet? Then they already have you. While this may seem like an intriguing sci-fi movie, it is the reality of our current digital overwhelm. To break these invisible chains, we must prioritize intentional self-care and commit to nurturing selfhood in the digital age. Only by reclaiming our attention can we move from being mere data points back to being the conscious architects of our own lives. To discover the necessary process of nurturing selfhood in the digital age, Harvesting Happiness Podcast host Lisa Cypers Kamen welcomes cultural analyst, researcher, speaker, and author Patricia Martin. Patricia explores the new frontier of intermittent reinforcement that jams the human operating system, and how her book, Will the Future Like You? Reflections on the Age of Hyper-reinvention can help people prepare for what's coming next and reclaim autonomy in an AI-driven world. Like what you're hearing?

I am getting closer to closing on my future home, and I feel like I'm being invited into something much bigger than a property transaction. The sellers have cared for this land with so much love, intention, and respect that it feels less like I am buying a home and more like I am being trusted with a living ecosystem. They have tended to the land, the home, the animals, the bees, the hummingbirds, the deer, and all the little systems that help everything move in concert with one another. It has me thinking about how temporary ownership really is. We do not take our homes, our cars, our belongings, or our land with us when we leave this earth. What we do carry are the memories, the lessons, the awareness, and the energy we create while those things are in our care. I felt this deeply when I sold my camper van, Great Bear. She held so many beautiful memories for me and my dogs, but when I was no longer using her in the way she deserved, it felt right to pass her on to someone who could love her, use her, and create new memories of her own. That same idea is showing up again as I prepare to become the next steward of this home and land. I feel grateful for what has been created before me, and I feel responsible for continuing that flow of care in whatever way I can. On today's Wise Walk, we are exploring what it means to see ourselves as stewards of the spaces, belongings, and living systems in our care, and how honoring that responsibility can create a more beautiful exchange with the world around us. Where in your life do you feel part of an ecosystem and not separate from it? Can you feel how your energy flows to everything and everyone around you? Are you able to offer peace, belonging, and empowerment through the energy you share? Are you also able to receive that same peace, belonging, and empowerment from others? Since everything we own is temporary, what is your relationship with your belongings? How can you be a caring steward of the things you are responsible for? Which belongings still bring you joy? Which belongings have become unused in your life? Where could you release something so someone else can love, use, and appreciate it? Can you honor the memories you created with something, even when it is time to let it go? How is that belonging part of a larger ecosystem that continues beyond you? Where can something you once loved continue to live on in someone else's life? What feeling are you creating through the way you care for yourself, your neighbors, and your belongings? What feeling will you leave behind when you move into your next chapter? Where can you own your responsibility as a guardian and steward of what is in your care? Can you trust when it is time to let go and let something continue its purpose with someone else? I truly hope that you feel supported and nurtured by all the living energies that are surrounding you and that you are appreciating the memories that you're creating while those elements are in your life. I would love to hear what living systems are a part of your life and how they are acting as sanctuaries for you, or what different elements surprised you about this episode and what you took away, so please feel free to reach out and share. I look forward to next Thursday's Wise Walk, In this episode: [05:15] In 2018, I made the decision to be a camper van owner. After selling her, I still get to carry the memories from when the van was still mine. [06:29] When we are stewards of something, but not using it, that creates a missed opportunity for someone else to use it and love it. [07:31] I know the van gets to live on and create new memories with the amazing new owner.  [08:27] Nurturing and respecting things we've experienced and nurtured reinforces this positive flow of energy.  [10:09] Even though I don't still own the van, I can still cherish everything we've experienced in it. I feel this also applies to my purchase of this new property as I become the new steward of the land.  [12:14] I am also the benefactor of how they have guarded and empowered this land and this ecosystem. I feel empowered to continue what the previous owners have started. [15:04] I cared for and loved my past house in the same diligent and meticulous way.  [17:27] If we all do the right thing for each other, we won't have a fear of being taken advantage of. [18:38] The legacy of us taking care of our homes and our things lives on and we get to be beautiful guardians and stewards of that thing.  [19:25] I feel like everything I've done in my past has led me to find these beautiful sellers.  [20:02] I look forward to sharing future memories with these sellers.

Today we're exploring a tender question so many parents are carrying: how do we help our kids grow in faith when we're still figuring it out for ourselves? And underneath that—what if we get it wrong? What if we hand them something they'll spend years trying to untangle?Today, we're joined by pastor, author, and researcher Meredith Miller, who has spent her career thoughtfully engaging these questions. Her book, Woven: Nurturing a Faith Your Kid Doesn't Have to Heal From, offers a grounded and practical guide for what this can look like.Meredith invites us to move away from rigid faith metaphors like walls and foundations, and instead to see faith more like a web—flexible, resilient, and uniquely woven for each person. That shift opens up a much more spacious way of thinking about what it means to guide our kids spiritually.Anchoring this conversation is her distinction between obedience-based and trust-based faith. Meredith makes a compelling case that trust must come first—that obedience, when it matters, grows naturally out of a relationship with a God we've come to know and trust, rather than fear.We also talk about how to approach scripture with kids, what her research revealed about the strengths of a Latter-Day Saint ward-based model, the value of family warmth, and why “I don't know” can be a great answer.This conversation was a steadying reminder for us that while we can't control how our kid's faith unfolds, we can trust that God is already at work in their lives. We hope this episode gives you both some practical tools and a little more peace for the long, slow work nourishing a faith your kid doesn't need to heal from.You can also find Meredith's new book Wonder: 52 Conversations to Help Kids Fall in Love with Scripture on Bookshop.org and Amazon. Did you know Faith Matters also produces a Bible Storybook podcast?
