Mighty Blue On The Appalachian Trail: The Ultimate Mid-Life Crisis
We meet a young New Hampshire guy today who had never hiked in New Hampshire prior to his Appalachian Trail thru-hike this year. Galloway Johnson had dreamed about the AT for five years and made it a reality this year. He didn't enjoy those early days, finding it tougher than he had imagined and carrying on almost to spite the trail!! But he made it to the end and came on the show to share his story, telling me that despite vowing never to hike again, he is considering the PCT next year. We have another report on my own progress in my accountability blog. I'm afraid it isn't as positive as I had hoped, though I am resolved to keep going and keep preparing for my upcoming third AT thru-hike. I used my hike last year on the South West Coast Path in the UK to help raise money for my absolute favorite charity, Parenting Matters, on whose board I've been privileged to serve for over a decade. You can learn more about the hike and the organization–and donate–by visiting Hike with Steve - Empowering Parents, One Step at a Time | Parenting Matters %.

In this episode, Michal Renee' gets raw about the truth most high-functioning Christian women never say out loud:Your healing is often hidden inside your movement.Not the “do more” kind of movement…but the obedience movement — the steps you take when you don't feel worthy, don't feel ready, and don't feel qualified.Michal reflects on how God used her steps — the podcast, the prayers, the quiet yeses — to heal her through loss, rebuild her confidence, and reveal her impact through unexpected testimonies.You'll hear:How moving before you feel valuable reveals your value Why not starting is a silent loss to the people you're assigned toThe testimonies that carried Michal through heartbreak, grief, and transitionHow God attaches healing, clarity, and purpose to actionWhy obedience unlocks transformationThis episode is a reminder that your steps carry power — and somebody's breakthrough is tied to your movement.

It's just me, MJ, on the mic today. I wanted to take a moment to share where life has taken us lately. From how this podcast started — telling our love story and all the funny, messy, beautiful moments — to where things are now as we take baby steps into something new. I talk about what this change has been like, how Shams is doing, and how we're framing it all as a new beginning. It's honest, a little emotional, but filled with hope.

This week we discuss changing the outcome of your health with nutrition & exercise. Our guest today is Dr. James Thompson, the author of Fearless Wellness and a passionate advocate for transformational change. He completed medical training 35 years ago and has dedicated my career to empowering others to live healthier, more fulfilling lives. He experienced a life-changing event in 2012 and participated in a 21-day Daniel Fast with my church community. Though the three-week diet, equivalent to a whole food plant-based diet, was intended to emphasize prayer, the impact of the food intrigued him. By the end of the second week, he had more energy, fewer joint aches, more mental clarity, better sleep, and lower blood pressure. He surmised the benefits were mainly from consuming real food and omitting processed food. He decided to take a year-long certification course in integrative holistic nutrition which was the start of his transformation to a whole food plant-based lifestyle. His training course, combined with a decade of studying nutrition science, love of animals, and concerns about climate change, has led me to the current space where he resides, a vegan. Here is the basic outline & links to his Blog and his new book : "FEARLESS Wellness: Transform Your Life, One Step at a Time" F – Food: Embrace plant-based eating E – Exercise: Stay active regularly A – Avoid toxins: Eliminate harmful habits (e.g., tobacco) R – Restorative sleep: Prioritize quality rest L – Lessen stress: Manage and reduce daily pressures E – Engage your mind: Stimulate mental growth S – Social energy: Cultivate empathy and connections S – Spiritual connectivity: Foster a sense of purpose and belonging
In this conversation, Marshall and Nick discuss the current trend of individuals in the automotive industry expressing pride in not attending events like SEMA.

The discussion highlights the need for individuals to focus on their own business needs rather than conforming to industry expectations.Choosing the right pads for a one step correction out of our lineup was a large topic.

Mighty Blue On The Appalachian Trail: The Ultimate Mid-Life Crisis
Lisa Laidlow came to the trail when she became an empty-nester. She had always been an outdoor girl–often along with her father–yet it was only fairly recently that she returned to hiking and discovered the idea of a thru-hike. As a black woman on the trail, she was embraced by hikers, though had a few uncomfortable encounters along the way. Despite these rare occasions, Lisa is a strong advocate of getting people of whatever color into the woods and on trails. You can follow Lisa on various social media platforms; on Facebook at Breathe:AdventuresoftheSoul | Baltimore MD , on Instagram at Lisa Laidlow (@breathe_adventuresofthesoul) , and on her YouTube channel at Breathe:Adventures of The Soul(HighViz) .

James Dalberto, or Nomad, joins the podcast today. James has been an RV'er for the past few years, earning a living as a “starving artist” (his words) all over the country. This year, he decided to mix it up a bit and headed out onto the Appalachian Trail for a thru-hike. On the way, he fell back in love with the hiking community he discovered last year, and even found time to provide his fellow hikers with some trail magic of his own.

This week, I want to share an experience from a couples' weekend immersion I led.Watching a marriage transform over just a few days reminded me why I do this work.One person can absolutely create change in a relationship.When you show up differently, your partner responds differently, and a new dynamic emerges. This couple came in scared, angry, and on the brink of divorce.By the end of day one, they began seeing each other's differences as strengths.By day three, they had a connected, loving marriage and a plan to maintain it.It's amazing what happens when both people commit, use the tools consistently, and make an intentional investment in their relationship.Struggling to decide whether to stay or go in your marriage and you're serious about finding that answer? Book a Truth & Clarity Session with a member of my team. We'll discuss where you are in your marriage and explore if there's a fit for you and I to work together so you can make - and execute - the RIGHT decision for YOU and your marriage.

Jodi O. Brown has lived the kind of story most of us hope we never face. What began as a picture-perfect life shifted overnight when she learned the symptoms she had been ignoring were signs of a brain tumor wrapped around her brainstem. One surgery became three. Five days in hospital became thirty-five in neurocritical care. The journey would grow to twenty-six surgeries, with complications that could have shattered anyone's sense of self. Instead, Jodi found a different path. She learned to take life one minute at a time, to find meaning inside the mess, and to choose the next small step when the finish line felt impossible to see. In this conversation on Becoming Unshakeable, Jodi introduces the concept of anti-fragility, illustrating its application to human life as well as to systems and economies. Resilience helps us bounce back. Anti-fragility enables us to grow stronger in the face of stressors, setbacks, and uncertainty. Jodi explains how she closed the door on one life and opened another with new rules, new rhythms, and a daily practice of grace with deadlines. Feel the pain, name it, and then set a time to stand up again, even if the first step is tiny. Sometimes, it feels like committing to attending a class where you cut paper shapes, because having someone to be accountable to can pull you through when your willpower runs dry. We also step into a new season unfolding in real time. Jodi became an empty nester yesterday. The quiet is startling. She walks us through the emotions of a house that suddenly sounds different and the choice to reimagine marriage, travel, and daily rituals with hope. Her definition of becoming unshakeable fits the heart of this show. Adversity is not an interruption to your story. It is your story. The practices you bring to ordinary days prepare you for the extraordinary ones. Faith underpins her steadiness. Hope keeps her moving. She shares lessons from a childhood shaped by leadership teachings and a father who modeled genuine care, the kind you feel when a leader knows your name and your story. Every interaction is an opportunity to change a life. That line threads through everything here. It is the reason people follow, the reason cultures feel safe, and the reason care will never go out of style. If you are barely holding on, Jodi's message is simple and actionable. Permit yourself to mourn what you lost. Set a clear deadline to rise. Make one small commitment to another human and keep it. One step can change the direction of a hard season. One light can change the way a room feels. Jodi chooses to be that light, and she invites you to do the same. Stay to the end for a generous gift. Jodi offers a complimentary e-copy of her memoir, “The Sun Still Shines,” for listeners who email her. It is an honest account of pain and purpose, and a reminder that even in the hardest chapters, the light is still there, waiting to be seen.
In this episode, One Step at a Time Through Our Grief, Laura shares how God used the beauty of His creation -- mountains, rivers, the ocean, and even the warmth of the sun -- to remind her that He is always present, even in the hardest moments of deep loss.

Send us a text“I'm struggling as I parent my foster kids, I feel at a loss and overwhelmed.” “I feel all alone, how can I build a support system?” “Am I being the parent my kid needs me to be?” — We heard from Josie Mae Wells in part one of this series two weeks ago, when we discussed her story, vocational development, and community support system. If you missed that one, be sure to check it out! Today, we hear part two of Benoit Harpey's interview with Josie Mae Wells, Public Relations Coordinator at Friends of Foster Children. In this episode, Josie shares how important it is to adapt to your kid's needs; the deeper lessons of hope, resilience, and patience she learned through helping raise her sisters; and how vital it is to build a good support system with community, friends, and mentorship. Additionally, she says something we all need to hear: sometimes growth isn't linear; you need to take one step back to take two steps forward. There will be struggles, but there are ways to work through them. Tune in today to get practical tips, tools, and strategies from an expert in foster care who hopes to help you in your parenting journey!
The Dad Edge Podcast (formerly The Good Dad Project Podcast)
What would you do if the scale flashed “error” because it couldn't register your weight? For most men, that might feel like the end—but for Johnny Muresan, it was day one. In this deeply moving and brutally honest episode, I sit down with the man behind Johnny Goes Running to unpack his staggering 160+ pound weight loss journey, his emotional rock bottom, and how a single painful step forward sparked a complete life transformation. Johnny shares the realities of chronic pain, food addiction, and near-marital collapse—but more importantly, he walks us through how he reclaimed his health, family, and purpose. From running marathons to rebuilding his marriage and launching a community of hope for other men, this conversation will challenge you to rethink what's possible—no matter where you're starting from. Episode Timeline Highlights [0:00] – Introduction [1:01] – What would you do if the scale read “error”? Johnny's weight reality check. [3:17] – The painful first step and the mindset shift from victimhood to action. [6:49] – Life at nearly 500 lbs: chronic knee pain, parenting while immobile, and losing hope. [14:06] – The wake-up call: realizing his choices were writing his kids' future. [24:09] – How a 30-day water fast broke Johnny's food addiction. [27:42] – Losing 61 pounds in 30 days—and the humble first meal after. [33:08] – How changing food habits restored his health and mindset. [39:02] – His first full marathon—returning to Hawaii where he once hit rock bottom. [45:00] – Rewiring his entire family dynamic by leading with example. [50:11] – Running 82 miles across Tennessee for a cause—on just 11 days' notice. [51:32] – His upcoming book Run Your Life and what it means to take up space where you don't feel you belong. 5 Key Takeaways 1. Rock Bottom is a Starting Line – Johnny didn't wait until he was “ready” or “fit”—he started while in pain, overweight, and discouraged. 2. Living for Your Kids Means Showing Up – Johnny's breakthrough came when he realized he'd die for his kids—but wasn't willing to live for them. 3.

TVC 709.6: Emmy Award-winning actress Mariette Hartley talks to Ed about some of her other movie and TV roles, including the back story of the long-running, highly successful series of commercials that she did with James Garner for Polaroid cameras—and how the chemistry between her and Garner was so natural, many viewers believed that they were actually married. Mariette co-stars, co-wrote, and co-produced, along with her husband Jerry Sroka, in Our (Almost Completely True) Love Story, a romantic comedy that is available now for streaming on demand on Amazon Prime and other major platforms; it is also available on DVD and Blu-ray.

What does it take to walk across an entire country—3,400 miles, 16 states, and 7 months on the road? In this episode of Beautiful Work Beautiful Life, cohost Laurel Boivin sits down again with Nick Tucker, a husband, father, speaker, and storyteller whose journey of resilience has inspired many. At just 23 years old, Nick felt a calling he couldn't ignore: to walk from Maine to Los Angeles with nothing more than a backpack, a friend, and faith that the road would provide. Along the way, he discovered the power of kindness from strangers, the lessons of resilience born in days of rain in Pennsylvania to desert heat in Arizona, and the deeper spiritual work of learning to give himself the same grace he so freely gives to others. This is more than a story of an extraordinary adventure—it's a reminder that life is built one step at a time. Whether you're facing a transition, longing for purpose, or simply curious about what happens when we say yes to a calling, Nick's story will inspire you to trust the journey and keep moving forward one step at a time.

Mighty Blue On The Appalachian Trail: The Ultimate Mid-Life Crisis
We meet an unusual hiker this week. Ken Posner has been a long-distance runner and hiker over the years, yet he has gradually morphed into a barefoot runner and hiker. Ken and I discuss this–to me–bizarre footwear choice, and he makes a compelling case for the advantages of barefoot walking. Ken has also taken on the fascinating project of “The Grid” in New York's Catskill Mountains, whereby he hikes each of over 30 mountains in every month of the year. This entails over 400 ascents, and the ability to see those mountains in changing weather and terrain as the year develops. Ken has written a terrific book about his pursuit of “The Grid,” which you can find here at Chasing the Grid: An Ultrarunner's Physical and Spiritual Journey in Pursuit of the Ultimate Mountain Challenge . You can learn more about Ken and his barefoot walking at his website, Barefoot Ken and the Long Brown Path . I used my hike last year on the South West Coast Path in the UK to help raise money for my absolute favorite charity, Parenting Matters, on whose board I've been privileged to serve for over a decade. You can learn more about the hike and the organization–and donate–by visiting Hike with Steve - Empowering Parents, One Step at a Time | Parenting Matters %. I hope you want to support this critical mission. Don't forget.

Chrissy Schubert and her daughter Ady will be attempting a 250-mile section of the Appalachian Trail next year. No big deal, you may think. Think again.

The adversity that Ady and her family have overcome during her earlier years has strengthened their faith and helped so many others along the way. These links each tell a short story or speak to the way in which Ady is triumphing in life as she faces her teenage years.

Think confidence is something you're either born with or not? Think again. Real confidence isn't a personality trait—it's a byproduct of courage, repetition, and resilience. In this piece, we break down why waiting to “feel ready” is the very thing holding you back, and how the path to unshakable confidence starts with one bold move (even if you're shaking while you take it). You don't need to be fearless. You just need to begin.

Mighty Blue On The Appalachian Trail: The Ultimate Mid-Life Crisis
This week, we have a little change of pace. I attended the Woods Hole weekend last week as a presenter, and I came away with friendships, more knowledge, and a decent amount of humble pie as I savored the experience. My Dana came with me and experienced a little of what I experience on trail. She hiked into our campsite at Dismal Falls, then camped for her first ever night in a tent in the woods, before hiking back out the following morning. Our sessions at Woods Hole were informative, and we found a bunch of people ready to learn, to share, and to listen. We're all lucky to be part of such a community. Last week was also the culmination of our Mighty BLue Class of 2025, as Beth and Andrew climbed Katahdin after finishing off the 100 Mile Wilderness. We reflected on those last days just yesterday. As you can see below, they took notice of me when I suggested that they should consider their Katahdin “pose” before they reached the brown sign. I used my hike last year on the South West Coast Path in the UK to help raise money for my absolute favorite charity, Parenting Matters, on whose board I've been privileged to serve for over a decade.

Mom2Mom MENTORING - Work/Life Harmony, Soul-Care, Kingdom Minded Moms
Most Christian moms struggle with emotions because we were never taught how to process them in God's presence. In this episode, you'll discover the one step most women skip in emotional healing—and how to notice, name, and free your emotions with God's help. If you've ever stuffed down anger, guilt, fear, or even joy, you're not alone. Many women were raised to believe emotions are “too much,” or even wrong. But God designed our emotions as signals, not problems. They can become a pathway to deeper intimacy with Him when we learn how to bring them into His presence instead of running away from them. In this episode of Mom2Mom Mentoring, Misty shares her own journey of learning to welcome emotions she once judged or abandoned, and why that shift has brought her greater freedom. You'll hear a practical, prayerful 4-step rhythm—Notice → Name → Feel → Free—that helps busy Christian moms process emotions in a healthy, biblical way. ✨ What you'll learn in this episode: Why emotions are not good or bad—they're God-given signals. The surprising step most women skip when seeking emotional healing. A simple prayer guide to process your feelings with God's help.

Sandra Katerina Schmelzer Alvarez, or Peaches, completed her Appalachian Trail thru-hike last month. She is a single mother who managed her autistic son's reaction to her hike by preparing him for a year before she left. The hike allowed her to see herself as not just a mother, embracing the hiking community and returning home to her son, Nico, with a new perspective on life and motherhood. You can follow Sandra and see plenty of her thru-hike photographs on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/share/1B7SHgqvAN/?mibextid=wwXIfr.

Choreography copyright exists in a fascinating legal gray area where cultural ownership and legal protection often clash. When Alfonso Ribeiro attempted to claim rights to his iconic "Carlton Dance" from Fresh Prince of Bel-Air after Fortnite used it as a purchasable emote, his case was dismissed because the Copyright Office deemed the routine "too simple" - just three basic dance steps without sufficient originality. This ruling sparked crucial conversations about what makes dance protectable.The landscape shifted dramatically when choreographer Kyle Hanagami sued Epic Games over a four-count hook from his registered routine appearing in Fortnite. When the Ninth Circuit reversed an initial dismissal in 2023, they delivered a game-changing perspective: "Reducing choreography to isolated poses is like reducing music to single notes." This recognition that even short sequences could embody original expression opened new possibilities for dancers seeking protection.We explore how this legal evolution continues with Kelly Heyer's ongoing battle against Roblox for monetizing her viral "Apple Dance" without permission. With platforms earning substantial revenue from choreographic content, questions of fair compensation and proper licensing have never been more urgent. Meanwhile, international cases reveal how different jurisdictions approach dance protection - from China's rejection of single-pose copyright to Brazil's emphasis on proving tangible harm.Through these stories, we distill five crucial principles governing choreography copyright: basic movements remain freely available to all; originality exists in arrangement rather than individual steps; even short sequences can qualify for protection if distinctive enough; evidence of harm matters as much as creativity; and courts continually seek balance between creator rights and cultural freedom. As dance moves from stages to avatars in the metaverse, these principles will shape how we value and protect movement in the digital age.Ready to dive deeper into intellectual property's fascinating frontiers?

Gestational diabetes (GDM) is one of the most common health issues during pregnancy, and diagnosing it is more complicated than you might think. In this episode, Dr. Dekker is joined by EBB Research Team member Dr. Morgan Richardson Cayama to cover the newly updated evidence on how GDM is diagnosed. They walk through the physiology behind GDM, current testing methods, and why there's still international disagreement about how to screen. Together, they examine the results of large randomized trials comparing the one-step and two-step screening methods, the research on early screening with hemoglobin A1C, and the evidence on alternatives to the Glucola drink, including candy and home blood sugar monitoring. They also review the risks of skipping screening entirely, and how weight bias and other systemic factors can impact diagnosis and care. (02:28) What is Gestational Diabetes and Why Is It So Common?
