This episode weaves together three healing modalities: 12-step recovery, psychotherapy, and Centering Prayer, through the wisdom and lived experience of Howard B. Howard shares what it truly means to accept our basic core of goodness as our true self, and why that acceptance becomes the foundation from which we can look at our shadow and false self. Together, we explore how this radical acceptance, grounded in the belief that we are loved unconditionally, transforms not only how we see ourselves but how we show up in the world. To connect further with us:Visit our website: www.contemplativeoutreach.orgFind us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/prayerofconsent/Like us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/prayerofconsent/Check out our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/coutreachStream and Download the Opening Minds, Opening Hearts Podcast NOW for FREE on Apple Podcast, Amazon and Spotify!

Welcome back to Opening Minds, Opening Hearts. In this episode, we are joined by Lawrence H, who was introduced to Centering Prayer while serving time at Folsom State Prison in 2009 and has since dedicated his life to sharing the practice with others. In a conversation full of honesty, hard-won wisdom and real hope, Lawrence shares what it truly means to bring our trauma into God's presence and allow it to be transformed. Together, we also explore the dark night of the soul and how Father Thomas Keating understood it not as something to be feared but as a profound and hidden work of divine therapy that carries us toward deeper freedom.More about Lawrence's prison ministry:Prison Contemplative Fellowship: https://youtube.com/@pcf_praestolari?si=viiL99d4tJDxq5eyCatholic Prison Ministries Coalition to view the documentary Holding Still: https://www.catholicprisonministries.org/holding-stillTo learn more about the mission of Contemplative Outreach's Prison Outreach Service Team (COPOST), visit: https://www.contemplativeoutreach.org/prison-outreach-homepage/To connect further with us:Visit our website: www.contemplativeoutreach.orgFind us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/prayerofconsent/Like us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/prayerofconsent/Check out our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/coutreachSeason 4 of Opening Minds, Opening Hearts was made possible in part by a grant from the Trust for the Meditation Process, a charitable foundation encouraging meditation, mindfulness, and contemplative prayer.We are extremely grateful for their support [of TMP] and would be grateful for any additional support that you, as a listener, might offer.

Welcome back, everyone! We are so glad you are joining us. In this episode, we are joined by the Reverend Nhien Vuong, contemplative teacher, ordained minister, founder of the Evolving Enneagram, and author of The Enneagram of the Soul, for a deeply personal and illuminating exploration of the Enneagram as a sacred companion to Centering Prayer on the journey of divine therapy. Together, we explore what it truly means to move from a life shaped by the question 'what is wrong with me?' to the lived and felt knowing that we are already whole, and the profound and practical ways the Enneagram and Centering Prayer work together as companions on the same journey toward wholeness and freedom. To connect with Nhien, check out:Her Evolving Enneagram Community: https://www.evolvingenneagram.com/Her YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@evolvingenneagramHer Enneagram of the Soul Book Journey Training & Certification Program: https://evolvingenneagram.com/enneagram-of-the-soul-facilitator-trainingHer Contemplative Practices & the Enneagram 12-week cohorts: https://evolvingenneagram.com/contemplative-enneagram-communityHer (New!)

The invisible forces shaping what you eat, why they stay hidden, and what it actually takes to change them.Sue Pritchard is CEO of the Food, Farming and Countryside Commission (FFCC) and a farmer just down the road from us in Monmouthshire. In this episode she lays out exactly how the modern food system works, who benefits, who pays the price, and why the polite assumption that "people just want cheap food" is one of the most damaging myths in British public life.We go into the ABCD commodity giants most people have never heard of, the three forces reshaping our plates (commodified, consolidated, financialised), the citizens' assemblies that proved the political class has been misreading the public for decades, and why Sue thinks it might finally be time to bring back the word shame.This was one of those conversations where a missing piece of the puzzle dropped into place. Not cheery in places, but clarifying and energising.In this episode:What we actually mean by "the food system" and why the definition mattersThe ABCD companies: the four private firms (plus one Chinese state company) that control over 80% of global commodity tradeWhy Cargill's profits jumped 27% while the rest of us absorbed food price spikesCommodified, consolidated, financialised: the three words that explain how we got hereWho's really losing: farmers on below real-living-wage incomes, citizens paying twice (at the till and through their taxes), and our public healthThe assumptions keeping the system stuck: "people only want cheap food", "nobody wants a nanny state", "this is a middle-class concern"What happened when FFCC actually asked people what they want from food (spoiler: the response rate was five times the norm)The role of anger, and why Rowan Williams called it the "appropriate emotional response"Rutger Bregman, shame, and whether it is time to make certain jobs socially unacceptable againFinding your lane: why we do not all have to do everything everywhere all at onceThe "What Works Here?" inquiries and the stories of hope already on the groundApproximate timestamps:00:00 - Welcome & Introduction05:00 - Farm Start with Rachel Hammond (starts next month, places still available)06:00 - Community Day, 16 May, plus the screening of the People's Emergency Briefing08:20 - Introducing Sue Pritchard09:30 - What the FFCC is and why it was set up after Brexit12:30 - What we actually mean by "the food system"18:30 - The winners: ABCD companies, Cargill, the Amazon, and chicken sheds in the Wye Valley24:00 - The losers: farmers, citizens, public health26:20 - The assumptions that keep the system stuck28:45 - Sue "spits the dummy" and launches the citizens' assemblies36:30 - Anger, Rowan Williams, and what to do with it42:45 - Bregman, shame, and raising the social cost of harm44:30 - Working inside the system: the conversations that actually move people49:20 - Where hope already lives: the "What Works Here?" inquiries54:30 - Tom and Chloe unpack it: invisible winners, shame, food security, and the search for brave leadershipSue's best lines"Perhaps anger is the appropriate emotional response to the degree of injustice that we are finally seeing.""How do we tell the stories of the future that is already coming to life all around us?

Join Kosta and his guest: Linda Vickers, Executive Director of Safe Haven Recovery Program and Deanna Jenkins, President of the Board for  Safe Haven Recovery Program.In this episode: Safe Haven was founded in 2023, but your work and service to those seeking to rebuild their lives started long before Safe Haven. Will you take us to the beginning of your story and tell us how you got here? Safe Haven is a 12-month program. A year is a serious commitment to ask of anyone, but especially of someone who might be coming straight from incarceration. What does the first week look like for a new resident, and how do you build the foundation to continue the process? While you're addressing very practical barriers to returning to an independent life like employment and transportation, you're also equally focused on spiritual healing. How do you balance the practical and the faith-based sides of recovery? Why is it important to have both?

A former military family, they had just begun what felt like their forever chapter when everything changed.In this conversation, Reshma speaks openly about the stigma that kept Sean from asking for help, why she reframes "signs of suicide" as "signs of risk," and what those first impossible months of grief actually looked like. She shares how small, accessible mindfulness practices became lifelines for her and her kids, and why letting her children see her fall apart may be the most important thing she's ever done as a mother.This episode covers suicide loss, parenting through grief, nervous system regulation, and what it looks like to find joy again without leaving your person behind.What You Will Learn[00:10:14] Why Reshma was shocked but not surprised by her husband's suicide after years of unresolved struggle[00:11:58] Her reframing of “signs of suicide” into signs of risk and why that distinction matters for survivors[00:13:41] The compounding stressors — deployment, multiple moves, career transition, and alcohol use — in the year before his death[00:16:04] How stigma in the military and medical fields made him fear that seeking help would damage his career[00:19:41] What the early months of grief looked like: functioning for her kids while internally feeling no future for herself[00:21:07] The small 20-minute walking practice that became the first step toward caring for her own nervous system[00:23:52] How each child expresses grief differently — movement and anger, journaling and art, or needing nature and openness[00:30:37] What “accessible mindfulness” really means: stacking simple gratitude and grounding practices into daily life rather than adding more to-dos Resources Mentioned988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline (U.S.) – Call or Text 988 https://988lifeline.orgFind a Helpline (International crisis support directory) https://findahelpline.comLet's Connect!Reshma KearneyWebsite | InstagramChandler StroudWebsite | Instagram | LinkedIn  Mixing, editing, and show notes provided by Next Day Podcast.

Please visit my website to get more information: http://diversifiedgame.com/In this episode of Diversified Game, Kellen Coleman sits down with Haizel McIntyre, a Bronx based Licensed Master Social Worker who is also a Certified Financial Social Worker and a Certified Financial Education Instructor. Haizel breaks down why most people stay stuck financially, not because they are lazy, but because they do not have a plan that matches their real life.Haizel shares how Financial Social Work connects mental health and money, how “money wounds” shape spending and saving, and why every financial decision is emotional even when people think it is purely logical. She explains the difference between coaching and advising, how she helps clients build realistic goals, and why “hope” is not a strategy when it comes to retirement, investing, or entrepreneurship.You will also hear Haizel's story as a first generation Dominican American, how culture influences money habits, and why immigrant families often bring strong cash based survival skills, but can miss key knowledge about the American financial system. She discusses community practices like collective giving, how financial education needs to start earlier, and why small wins matter more than perfection.If you are trying to budget, save, get out of survival mode, or build a healthier money mindset, this conversation will help you start moving with intention.Guest:Haizel McIntyre, LMSW, CFSW, CFEIMaking Money Movers NYCConnect with Haizel:Website: https://makingmoneymovers.org/Email: info@makemoneymoves.orgFind her on LinkedIn and Instagram: Haizel McIntyreKey topics:Financial Social Work (CFSW)Money mindset and money woundsBudgeting and saving basicsSMART goals and executionYouth and community financial educationCulture and finances in NYCDominican American experiencePlanning for retirement and long term stabilityChapters:0:00 Intro0:20 Haizel McIntyre introduces herself and Making Money Movers NYC1:10 What a Certified Financial Social Worker is2:00 The biggest mistake people make, no plan3:05 Money mindset, money wounds, and emotional spending4:30 Why goals need action and realistic execution6:10 Culture, community saving practices, and financial education gaps8:00 Working with individuals vs organizations, pricing and sliding scale9:30 Vision, couples, caregivers, and building generational impact10:45 Final advice, grace, consistency, and where to find Haizel

On this episode of the Kaya Cast Podcast, host Tommy Truong talks with Wally Daniel of Green Garden Consulting, an Oregon-based firm focused on plants, processes, and people. They dive into the biggest pitfalls cannabis growers encounter—often thinking they're optimizing when they're not hitting industry benchmarks—and outline a practical path to sustainable scale: rigorous vetting of vendors and leadership, building repeatable systems, and planning from desired outcomes to actual capability. Wally shares how AI fits into a living plant business, the art and science of cultivation, and why the most successful operators treat knowledge as a collaborative craft rather than a solo pursuit. The conversation covers down-to-earth improvements—upgrading legacy tech, optimizing fertigation, and maximizing vendor support to extract real value without chasing shiny objects. They discuss hard-won lessons on hiring a head grower, avoiding nepotistic decisions, and reverse-engineering capital projects from production needs. Through real-world projects—such as a major pest remediation and a climate-control redesign—Wally demonstrates how diligence, data, and leadership drive ROI and consistent quality. If you're an operator or founder aiming for consistency and growth in cannabis, this episode offers concrete playbooks and a grounded perspective.

Welcome back to Ordinary People with Extraordinary Lives!In this deeply moving episode, host Arlenys Buckelew sits down with Emily Curtis—wife, mother, author, and founder of Hope in the Mourning. Emily vulnerably shares her personal journey through loss, grief, and suffering, and how God transformed her pain into a ministry that now comforts and serves others.From spiritual struggles in childhood, to the heartbreak of losing loved ones, to the unexpected birth of a nonprofit after walking alongside a grieving friend—Emily's honest testimony will encourage anyone navigating a difficult season. Together, Emily and Arlenys discuss the importance of biblical community, practical ways to support those who are grieving, and what it truly means to find lasting hope in Christ.

This week on Beyond the Sermon, Matt and Magrey reflect on Baptism of the Lord Sunday by sharing personal baptism stories and exploring why baptism is more than a single moment in time. They talk about baptism as an intergenerational promise, the role of community and instruction in the Christian tradition, and how remembering our baptism invites imagination, play, and renewal—not just formality. Along the way, they unpack the United Methodist understanding of grace, why God is the primary actor in baptism, and how dying and rising with Christ continues to shape faith across a lifetime.Reach out to Mat with any questions about YOUR baptism journey at MHotho@hydeparkumc.orgFind out more at HydeParkUMC.org/NextSteps

Episode 2.66Michael and Zach sit down with Tim Bryant, founder and president of the Lowcountry Biblical Counseling Center, for a wide-ranging conversation on what truly distinguishes biblical counseling from both secular approaches and broader forms of “Christian counseling.”Tim explains the foundations of nouthetic counseling—rooted in Scripture, focused on the heart, and committed to real transformation rather than symptom management. As a member of the Association of Certified Biblical Counselors (ACBC), Tim explains how biblical counseling addresses the whole person by dealing honestly with sin, suffering, and sanctification, rather than reframing problems or merely validating emotions.The discussion turns practical as they explore common emotional struggles such as fear, anger, and depression, and how Scripture provides concrete tools for change. Tim walks through the biblical pattern of put off / put on, showing how lasting growth comes through repentance, renewed thinking, and obedience. They also discuss the value of meditation walks—intentional time spent walking, praying, and meditating on Scripture—as a way to reorient the heart and mind toward truth.This episode offers clarity, pastoral wisdom, and hope, reminding listeners that real change is possible—not through techniques alone, but through the transforming power of God's Word applied faithfully to everyday life.Lowcountry Biblical Counseling Center: http://www.lcbcc.orgFind our videocast here: https://youtu.be/NKiiA29rNyUMerch here: https://take-2-podcast.printify.me/Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!):⁠https://uppbeat.io/t/reakt-music/deep-stone⁠License code: 2QZOZ2YHZ5UTE7C8Find more Take 2 Theology content at http://www.take2theology.com

In this powerful conversation with Pastor Jonathan Falwell, we unpacked what it means to lead with integrity, stay grounded in faith, and navigate the pressures of ministry in a world filled with uncertainty. From cultural challenges like rising fear, tragedy, and moral compromise to the immense personal weight pastors carry, Pastor Jonathan reminded us that these days call for courageous, Spirit-filled leadership. He shared how Scripture, prayer, and community keep us rooted when criticism, burnout, or even spiritual attack threaten to derail our calling. Together, we explored how to finish well, not chasing applause or platform but living faithfully and leaving a legacy that truly matters. Pastor Jonathan also addressed the reality of spiritual warfare, the temptation of compromise, and the importance of daily renewal in Christ to stand firm amid cultural chaos. His words were both a sobering reminder of the times we live in and an encouraging call to lead with courage, conviction, and compassion.If you’re in need of some encouragement and a filled cup with some fresh wind in your sails, don’t miss the Refuel Conference at Thomas Road Baptist Church on October 6–7.
