Send us a textYasmin and Andy left a comfortable life in the UK to join a small off-grid community in the jungles of Belize.Fifteen years after cycling through Central America, Yasmin and Andy returned—this time with three kids and a desire for a different kind of life. What began as a plan to visit intentional communities in Europe shifted during the pandemic, eventually landing them in a small permaculture community in Belize.They describe the emotional and practical steps behind leaving the UK, the grief of letting go, and the clarity that comes from recognizing how little time we have. Loneliness in early parenthood, especially within the isolation of the nuclear family, sparked a deeper search for connection. Now, they live alongside five other families where support is built into everyday life.This isn't a story about escaping—it's about building.

What happens when a government agency arbitrarily decides to hold millions of dollars' worth of inventory hostage? In this episode of American Potential, host David From speaks with Oliver Dunford, senior attorney at the Pacific Legal Foundation, about the legal battle facing Jake's Fireworks, a family-owned business caught in regulatory limbo. The Consumer Product Safety Commission is blocking Jake's Fireworks from selling $2 million worth of inventory simply because their fireworks make a "bang" instead of a "pop." Despite taking the agency to court, the family has been left in legal limbo because the commission refuses to issue a final ruling—leaving them with no path to challenge the decision. Oliver Dunford explains how this case highlights a broader problem of government overreach, where unelected bureaucrats impose regulations without accountability. This episode dives into the dangers of the administrative state, the legal fight for due process, and what this means for businesses across America. Tune in to hear why this case matters beyond fireworks—and how the fight for economic freedom and due process is more important than ever.

NBN host Hollay Ghadery interviews Toronto author Caroline Topperman about her new book, Your Roots Cast a Shadow: One Family's Search Across History for Belonging (HCI, December 17, 2024). Your Roots Cast a Shadow explores where personal history intersects with global events to shape a family's identity. From the bustling markets of Baghdad to the quiet streets of Stockholm, Topperman navigates the murky waters of history as she toggles between present and past, investigating the relationship between migration, politics, identity, and home. Her family stories bring history into the present as her paternal grandmother becomes the first woman allowed to buy groceries at her local Afghan market while her husband is tasked with building the road from Kabul to Jalalabad. Topperman's Jewish grandfather, a rising star in the Communist Party, flees Poland at the start of WWII one step ahead of the Nazis, returning later only to be another Jew rejected by the Party. Topperman herself struggles with new cultural expectations and reconciling with estranged relatives. A study in social acceptance, Topperman contends with what one can learn about an adopted culture while trying to retain the familiar, the challenges of learning new languages and traditions even as she examines the responsibilities of migrants to their new culture, as well as that society's responsibility to them. More about Caroline Topperman: Caroline Topperman is a European-Canadian writer, entrepreneur, and world traveller. Born in Sweden, raised in Canada with a recent stint of living in Poland, she holds a BFA in screenwriting. She is a co-founder of Mountain Ash Press and KW Writers Alliance, and currently runs Migrations Review, and Write, They Said. Her book, Tell Me What You See, serves as a toolkit for her writing workshops. She has written articles for Huffington Post Canada, Jane Friedman's blog, was the Beauty Editor for British MODE Magazine, and served as managing editor for NonBinary Review. Her hybrid memoir, Your Roots Cast a Shadow, explores explosive intergenerational histories that link war zones and foreign shores with questions of identity and belonging. Her next book, The Road to Tang-e Gharu, integrates Afghan folktales and family memories with the story of one of the greatest roads ever built. About Hollay Ghadery: Hollay Ghadery is an Iranian-Canadian multi-genre writer living in Ontario on Anishinaabe land. She has her MFA in Creative Writing from the University of Guelph. Fuse, her memoir of mixed-race identity and mental health, was released by Guernica Editions in 2021 and won the 2023 Canadian Bookclub Award for Nonfiction/Memoir. Her collection of poetry, Rebellion Box was released by Radiant Press in 2023, and her collection of short fiction, Widow Fantasies, was released with Gordon Hill Press in fall 2024.

In this episode, Guy engaged in a profoundly moving and inspirational conversation with Suraj Holzwarth, a medicine woman and shamanic healer. The discussion explored the intersection of deep personal trauma and spiritual enlightenment, where Suraj shared her journey through unimaginable loss, the insights gained from shamanic practices, and her flash of enlightenment through plant medicine. Emphasizing the importance of spiritual connection, intuition, and accepting oneself as the embodiment of light, the episode invites listeners to contemplate their own purpose and path amidst life's tribulations. This powerful dialogue also delved into the current state of global consciousness and the collective initiation humanity is undergoing, urging a return to inner truths and the spiritual essence of being. Suraj's vulnerability, wisdom, and mission to guide others towards inner awakening through her work and upcoming programs make this episode a must-listen. About Suraj: White Eagle Medicine Woman (Suraj Holzwarth) adventurous life began early, when at the age of 19 she moved to Alaska and became the youngest woman to climb Denali, North America's highest peak. With a deep love for the earth, she spent most of her early years in the wilds, climbing the highest peaks and guiding wilderness expeditions and retreats throughout the world for over twenty five years. In the late 90's she received a vision in dreams with indigenous Grandmothers to create the world's largest healing drum and to travel promoting peace through music. Beginning in 2000 and taking over a year to construct, White Eagle and the multicultural Alaskan community built the seven-foot, crystal inlaid GrandMother Drum. In 2001, White Eagle and Grandmother Drum were launched on their first of many World Peace Tours inspiring unity, peace and “drumming up” awareness of earth sustainable projects with the theme “ The Heartbeat of One Family, One Earth.

She is internationally known as a shamanic healer, seer, trance-medium, author, speaker, teacher, ceremonial and performance artist of Native American and European ancestry. She has since traveled over a million miles touching a million people in 20 countries with the 7 ft, crystal inlaid, thundering heartbeat of the world's largest drum of its kind, Grandmother Drum, and promoting unity, peace, tribal reconciliation, and earth sustainability. Her award winning CDs include “Journey of the Heart”, “Songlines of the Soul”, “Living Waters of Grace” and “Holy Ground”. She is the author of “The Magic Bundle” children's book, and “Songs of A New Earth” songbook. White Eagle is also the director and co-producer of the award winning documentary film “GrandMother Drum: Awakening the Global Heart”, selected as the Top 20 Spiritual Films at the Tel Aviv Spirit Film Festival. She is the founder and director of the Rainbow Fire Mystery School (RFMS) operating in Alaska, Hawaii and Peru and has led thousands of shamanic workshops, ceremonies and training globally for over 35 years. Starting with the acclaimed “Language of One” and “Heart of One” online spiritual programs, White Eagle has now expanded the RFMS to over a dozen certified online shamanic training programs. She is also the creator, director and lead instructor of the certified shamanic methods of Balancing the Shields© Community Mother DrumKeepers Training© and The Crystal Skull Method©.In 2013, White Eagle launched the Global Blue Flame Planetary Grid ceremony, activating and renewing the earth's grid in a one day ceremony annually with 62 trained groups worldwide.

Trip argues that the church is not a mere "pep rally" but a community that sustains and strengthens believers, and that neglecting the church is a mistake that can have serious consequences for one's spiritual life.

Hey Family Brand! It's Chris and Melissa here, and today we're talking about something that has brought clarity and connection to our family: our one family “rule.” Now, we're not talking about a strict rule you have to follow, but more like a guiding principle—something simple that keeps us grounded, connected, and focused on what matters most. In this episode, we'll walk you through how we discovered ours, why it's been so impactful, and how you can find your own one family rule. We started this concept through our work with The Psblty Co, where we help businesses simplify their growth by focusing on one core principle. That got us thinking: Why not apply the same idea to our family? So, we gathered our kids, reflected on our family's mission, vision, and values, and asked, “If we could only remember one thing, what would make the biggest impact?” The answer for us was clear: Elevate and Inspire. These three words capture how we want to treat each other and show up as a family. They remind us to lift each other up, speak possibility into each other's lives, and strive for connection. Since adopting this rule, it's become a touchstone for all of us. Even the kids use it as a gentle check-in, asking, “Was that elevate and inspire?” It's been a game-changer for how we approach our relationships at home. If you're wondering how to create your own one family rule, we recommend starting with your existing family mission or values. Is there a phrase or principle that stands out as the cornerstone? If you don't have a mission or values yet, that's okay! Just ask yourself: How do we want to treat each other? What's most important in how we show up as a family? Keep it simple—five words or less—and make it memorable. The beauty of this concept is its simplicity. In the busyness of life, it's easy to forget the grand mission statements or big goals. But a short, actionable rule is something you can come back to daily. It's a lens for making decisions, a reminder to align your actions with your values, and a foundation for building strong, lasting relationships. If you're inspired to find your family's one rule, let us know! We'd love to hear what you come up with and how it transforms your family dynamic.

A Very Happy New Year's Eve to You All! I hope everyone is feeling healthy, rested and peacefully reflective on this past year. One thing that certainly filled my 2024 cup to the brim is all the amazing chats with talented, interesting filmmakers. I'm thrilled to end the last day of this year with one more, and I think it's a great one. Peter Menchini directed the animated short, “When Mama and Me Lived Outside,” that took home the Grand Jury Award for Best Short Film – Animation at Film Invasion Los Angeles in 2023. I referred to this film as an “animated documentary” and Peter agreed. This unique, compelling and meaningful film tells the story of Tiny Gray-Garcia's children's book of the same name, utilizing the artwork in creative and original ways to support the story. We had a wonderful screening of “When Mama and Me Lived Outside” at FILA 2023 that included a great Q&A with Peter and Tiny. I knew that it would be a wonderful and rewarding interview if or when Peter had time to do the podcast. Much to my delight we were able to record a Zoom interview and Peter did not disappoint, as the conversation is fantastic and, to me, particularly meaningful. Peter shared the following links: Anyone who wants to buy Tiny's book, and you SHOULD, can do so here: https://www.poorpress.net/ You can learn more if you visit Poor Magazine's website: https://www.poormagazine.org/ And, finally, Peter shared this fun video with us: https://vimeo.com/270538513. In his words, “A scene from Barton Fink for a directing class. Charlie, carrying a shotgun, sets the hotel on fire, then goes upstairs where 2 cops have Barton handcuffed to his bed. Each shot becomes more orange, and then we also had to simulate flames with no budget. I just think that's so fun.” I think it's fun, too! _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Discover Indie Film Website – Instagram – Facebook – X/Twitter The INDIE Channel The INDIE Channel Website – Instagram – Facebook – X/Twitter – TikTok

Have you ever wondered if God's love truly embraces all people? Today, we witness a pivotal moment as Peter fully embraces his mission to share Jesus with people outside his own culture and tradition. Entering the home of Cornelius, a Roman centurion, Peter delivers the message of Jesus's love and resurrection to Gentiles, a step that breaks centuries-old boundaries. The Holy Spirit's powerful presence among Cornelius's household is a testament to God's desire for unity and inclusion. Peter's journey encourages us to break down any personal or cultural walls that separate us from others, offering God's love to everyone we meet as we live out the truth of one faith and one family.

Spark revival in YOUR home & join our FREE Revival Mom's Summit October 28-30 by registering here! https://revival.mom/summit?am_id=jenilee919 ----------------------------------- What would happen if you picked up your entire family and moved them across the world to serve the sick and broken... on a SHIP? Could this be a key to revival right inside your home? In this episode, I'm sitting down with Rayann a woman who took a radical leap of faith and uprooted her family to serve on a Mercy Ship—a floating hospital that travels to provide free surgeries to those in desperate need around the world. She shares how God called them way outside their comfort zones, selling their home in California, and into a life of service that didn't just change the lives of the people they helped but transformed their own family in ways she and her husband never expected. Here's what we dive into: How her family's “yes” to God led them to the open seas, answering His call to living on a floating hospital/city... and how Covid hitting ten months in affected them. The real-life challenges (and blessings) of relocating your family to serve full-time in ministry on a ship. How stepping into the mission field as a family can be the spark that ignites personal and spiritual revival. First-hand stories of incredible healings and the heart-changing work happening on Mercy Ships. How saying “yes” to God's plan—whether it's big or small—can be the spark that "flips the switch" on your children discovering what God has called THEM to do. If you've ever wondered how your family could step into something bigger or longed to see revival in your own home, this episode will encourage you to listen for God's leading and take bold steps of faith. Tune in to hear tear-evoking stories of faith, service, and healing, and get ready to be inspired to serve where God's calling you... maybe you could find yourself on a Mercy Ship for a period too! Key Takeaways: How to trust God's direction when it doesn't make sense. Why serving others is the key to unlocking transformation in your family. The ripple effect of obedience, and how it can spark revival in your home and beyond. ----------------------------------- CONNECT WITH JEN: Thank you for rating, reviewing and sharing the show on social media, this makes such an enormous difference on the reach of this podcast!

You know how it goes—another day, another haunting! In this episode, things get seriously spooky as we dive deep into one of the most terrifying hauntings ever—The Smurl Family Possession! You've heard of haunted houses, but this demonic case from Pennsylvania is terrifying, malevolent and down right frightful. The Smurl Family was tormented by a dark, malevolent entity that took over their home, turning their lives into a nightmare filled with violent levitations, eerie whispers, and full-on attacks. The hauntings escalated and after blessings by the local priest proved insufficient, Janet Smurl sought the help of Ed and Lorraine Warren (yes, those Warrens from The Conjuring) to investigate. But even the famous demonologists couldn't guarantee safety in this possession saga that gets darker and more twisted by the minute. Will the Smurl family make it out of this haunting alive, or are they destined to battle demons forever? On a lighter side, we're also sharing some fun personal paranormal experiences, including our unplanned matching pajama moment (hello, one brain cell) and our witchy adventure at Deadwick's Emporium in Portsmouth, NH. From tea leaf readings by Jezmina, a Romani fortune-teller to creepy ghost tours of the town's haunted streets.
