In this episode of The Key and Mang Audio Experience, we dive into a conversation that a lot of people feel but don't always talk about—why we put certain people on a pedestal, and how that can backfire.From athletes to celebrities to public figures, it's easy to assume they've got it all figured out. But the truth is, they're just people—flawed, human, and figuring it out like the rest of us.We talk about what happens when you realize the people you admire aren't perfect, and more importantly, how to stop doubting yourself in the process.This episode is a reminder to stop outsourcing your confidence. Trust your gut. Believe in your own journey.

Are you the type of writer that starts when the sun rises, and leaves the keyboard jazzed up to start the day? Or is writing the last thing you do before bed, at the end of a long one?

Ever admired someone so deeply that they could do no wrong in your eyes? In this episode, we’re unpacking the hidden trap of pedestals — why we put people on them, how it impacts our relationships (with others and ourselves), and what it really means to hold someone in high regard without losing sight of their humanity. A fresh perspective you didn’t know you needed.

In this unapologetically real and radically transparent episode, Kehla sits down with business mentor Annie Whitney to crack open the often glossed-over realities of online entrepreneurship—and the hidden cost of scaling without integrity. What starts as a casual chat between two coaches quickly turns into a fiery, heart-led exploration of what it really takes to lead in this industry—beyond the screenshots, beyond the hype, and beyond the seductive promise of proximity-based transformation. Together, they unravel: – The illusion of “the transformation is in the transaction” (and what's actually in the transformation) – How pedestal dynamics undermine trust, power, and true mentorship – The energetic difference between chasing strategy vs. choosing integrity – Why the obsession with 10K months is burning entrepreneurs out – What most leaders aren't saying about failed launches, ghosted DMs, and navigating slow seasons – How to lead (and invest) from discernment, depth, and devotion—not delusion Whether you're a seasoned coach or rising entrepreneur, this episode will have you questioning the rules you've been told to follow—and returning to the values you actually want to build your business on. ⚡ This is the kind of conversation that usually happens behind paywalls or in private Voxer threads—but Kehla and Annie are bringing it into the light.

I see so many entrepreneurs putting their future selves on this impossible pedestal — like the version of you making $500k is some completely different person who's got her shit together in ways you never could.Your future self isn't some mythical upgrade waiting in the wings; she's literally you with one more puzzle piece clicked into place.Stop making your dreams feel so fucking far away when you're already doing the work, already have the vision, and already ARE her, baby.

These days, scientists are starting to talk like shamans and shamans are starting to talk like scientists. So says anthropologist and author Jeremy Narby. And, he says, we need to talk about talking – because words matter. In this episode, Bioneers Senior Producer J.P. Harpignies speaks with Narby about how the very language and words we use reveal the topography and limits of our worldview, including Western culture's adamant centuries-long but now increasingly discredited assumption that intelligence is restricted only to human beings.

Set to release their highly anticipated sophomore album on May 2nd, Dr. Reknaw's 'MIRACLES' represents the most authentic and expansive expression of their musical journey to date, uncovering the next layer of the sonic and spiritual evolution of the two songstress sisters. The collection of 8 songs, all written over the last 12 months, radiate a wholesome joy and weave effortlessly through a vast array of moods and genres. Returning to their most beloved space of live band studio recording, the two front women (Julia & Sophie Cooper) met with their maestro band mates Jules Blewman ( Guitar ) and Luther Hunt ( Drums ) at the Surgery studio in Wellington to record what would become ‘MIRACLES'. While capturing the magical raw energy of live band recording the group opened a portal, through which flowed vibrations of reggae, soul, folk, worship, soul, dance music and even that which Bassist/Singer Sophie describes as ‘Nun Rock'. “This album holds a lot of variety in terms of grooves & vibe, it's quite different to anything we've done before. What makes it cohesive and organic to me is the themes and concepts running through these songs. From this perspective it's very much a concept album, the concept being an open journal of the lessons life has brought our way in the last year, things we are learning and experimenting with.”

Danielle May Laidley was known by a different name for the first 53 years of her life. We are so proud that this episode is a contributing factor to her reclaiming her narrative as a transgender woman. An extremely talented AFL footballer, Danielle would go on to become a highly respected coach, always keeping within arm’s reach the version of herself which felt most authentic. Danielle’s story, in its entirety, is so incredibly important that we had to split it over two big and special episodes. In this first part, we are introduced to phase 1 of her life: the footballer, the husband and the coach and with an addictive personality that caused her to become tough, fierce and obsessed with footy. Danielle discusses with Hugh, Ryan, and Josh the strict compartmentalisation of the different parts of her life during her AFL career, and the terrifying risks she took to satisfy the cravings to be her authentic self. You can watch the entire interview (Part One and Part Two) on YouTube, here – https://bit.ly/3FJ8Lw2

This is PART TWO of our chat with footballer, coach and uniter of people, Danielle Laidley. We HIGHLY recommend you go back and listen to part one if you haven’t heard it (linked below). In this episode, Danielle recounts how it felt to be publicly outed, her own voice removed as the media crafted their own narrative about her identity. A story of courage, resilience and love, Danielle vulnerably shares with Hugh, Ryan and Josh how she united her two worlds, and found the strength to live authentically for herself, and become a role model for others.

And so we meet someone, they're amazing, we're attracted to them, and we unconsciously project our ideal onto this person." - Jillian TureckiRelationship coach Jillian Turecki delves into one of the most confusing and painful relationship transitions: when a seemingly perfect partner begins showing concerning behaviors months into a relationship. She explains the psychological dilemma that makes walking away so difficult—after six months of connection, we're already emotionally entangled, living out our dreams of partnership, and dreading a return to the dating world. This attachment creates a devastating crossroads when red flags emerge, requiring tremendous strength to address them directly rather than ignoring them or immediately ending the relationship.Turecki reveals the unconscious patterns that set relationships up for disappointment, particularly our tendency to project an idealized blueprint onto new partners. She describes how we place them on pedestals, making their inevitable fall that much more jarring when reality sets in. The transition from honeymoon phase to committed relationship brings a mirror to our own unresolved issues, creating a critical juncture where communication becomes essential. The real test of relationship viability isn't finding someone perfect, but finding someone willing to have difficult conversations, while also examining our own unrealistic expectations and intolerance for the imperfections we ourselves possess.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter

We've all been there—feeling unworthy, not good enough, and putting everyone else first while betraying ourselves.

Righteousness can be described as a vehicle for God's love. It's the transport mechanism of God's mercy and justice. God acts in just and good ways as He moves toward us. It's who He is, what He does, and we are better because of it. Not only that, we are to be a reflection and continuation of His right actions in the world. But what happens when we forget? You guessed it, a divine disruption of our self-righteousness.

The podcast focuses on the concept of taking one's wife off a metaphorical pedestal in a relationship. The host, Bryan, discusses how men often idealize their wives, creating an unrealistic and ultimately harmful dynamic in their marriages.Bryan explains that when men place their wives on a pedestal, they create an impossible standard of perfection. This idealization actually prevents genuine connection and love. By elevating their wives to an unreachable status, men inadvertently create distance and pressure that makes it difficult for their wives to be themselves.The host, identifying as a recovering "nice guy," shares insights into how this pedestal mentality stems from feelings of unworthiness. Men often believe they don't deserve their wife's love, so they compensate by worshipping her. However, this approach backfires. It makes the wife uncomfortable and creates an unsustainable relationship dynamic where she feels constant pressure to maintain an impossible image.Bryan emphasizes that wives are human beings with complex emotions and changing states. They go through various phases - sometimes feeling sexy and energetic, other times tired and overwhelmed, especially during different life stages like parenthood. When men expect their wives to maintain a constant, idealized state, they set themselves up for disappointment and resentment.The key to a healthy relationship, according to Bryan, is accepting your wife's full humanity. This means allowing her to experience and express her emotions without trying to fix or judge them. It means being comfortable with her changing appearance, mood, and priorities. By removing her from the pedestal and treating her as an equal partner, men actually create space for deeper love and connection.Bryan also addresses the challenge this presents for men, who are naturally inclined to solve problems and take action. He advises listeners to resist the urge to immediately fix their wife's emotions and instead simply be present and accepting.Towards the end of the podcast, Bryan promotes an upcoming workshop called "Storm Master" aimed at helping men improve their relationships by understanding and managing their internal emotional landscape. He encourages listeners to share the podcast with others who might benefit from its insights about relationship dynamics and personal growth.The overall message is profound in its simplicity: true love means accepting your partner completely, without conditions or unrealistic expectations, and allowing them the freedom to be fully human.

If I can be frank for a moment: as creatives, we sometimes get too precious about our process of creating art. We need the right conditions, the best lighting, the perfect mindset, or else we feel like we can't create because it might not be perfect or even good.The problem is, we can get so hung up on this that we never end up creating at all as we wait for all the stars to align. So in this episode, I'm sharing how I've started letting go of this ideal standard of creativity to just get back to creating. I'm sharing thoughts from some of my favorite authors on all the different ways they push through roadblocks and just start doing. Because at the end of the day, done is better than good. And to get there, sometimes we just have to start and let go of the outcome. Let's get started!What's in this episode:[00:00] Intro[01:06] A common tendency that keeps creatives from creating[03:00] How resistance keeps us from doing our work[05:52] How to loosen our grip on perfectionism and get back to creatingTune in to this episode for a little pep talk on taking our creative process off a pedestal and getting back to just creating!For full show notes, resources, links and to download the transcript, visit our website: https://themilkyway.ca/stop-putting-your-creativity-on-a-pedestal/Grab your spot for the 2025 Online Newborn Retreat!

Don't put Maye on too much of a pedestal too early. Mayo said team let Drake Maye down. The guys thought this was a strange answer. Keefe raises a point that Maye stands out from the rest of the team. Where are the people crying about Drake playing too soon? WAA the Texans defense was too good. Well well well, Maye was not perfect, but he looked solid, even with the pass rush in his face.

These days, scientists are starting to talk like shamans and shamans are starting to talk like scientists. So says anthropologist and author Jeremy Narby. And, he says, we need to talk about talking – because words matter. In this episode, Bioneers Senior Producer J.P. Harpignies speaks with Narby about how the very language and words we use reveal the topography and limits of our worldview, including Western culture's adamant centuries-long but now increasingly discredited assumption that intelligence is restricted only to human beings. 

Love bombing and real love are two completely different things. The scariest part of being love bombed is that most of us don't know we're being love bombed. On this episode of the podcast, I'll address what is love bombing, the phases of love bombing, the signs and symptoms of being a victim of love bombing, the relationship patterns of a love bomber, and why we fall into the trap of believing this is true love and a perfect relationship. In the beginning, of a relationship that begins with love bombing, we believe we have found the ultimate relationship. We get caught up in the whirlwind of the “romance,” believing we have found the love that is only seen in romantic films. I want to help you to identify love bombing before you get extremely hurt mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. Listen through to the end of this podcast episode to properly educate and self-guard yourself from emotional pain and suffering.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/live-your-true-life-perspectives-with-ashley-berges--1272964/support.
