Grace Rouvray thought she knew what grief was. Then her best friend Katie died. In this deeply moving conversation with Holly Wainwright, Grace shares the story behind her memoir Is It Too Early To Bitch? — a love letter to the friendship that shaped her life, and the devastating loss that changed it forever. Grace and Katie met at drama school in 2009 and quickly became inseparable. Through awkward share houses, terrible dates, career highs, creative projects and countless late-night phone calls, they became each other's person. The kind of friendship that can feel every bit as profound, intimate and life-defining as a romantic relationship. Then, in 2021, Katie died suddenly at just 34 years old. Grace reflects on navigating unimaginable grief during lockdown, what it means to lose the person who knows you best, and the unexpected ways loss reshaped her understanding of friendship, family and herself. This episode explores the bond between female friends, the reality of life after loss, and why some of the greatest love stories aren't romantic at all.

Navigating grief is something that each person does differently, but when you are faced with loss in your life... grief can be overwhelming.Stephanie Walsh joins Anna Daly to share how her own experiences influenced her career…

Most people experience grief as an ending. Annie Lisa walked into hers and found a beginning.After her sister, Dr. Teresa Sievers, was brutally murdered in 2015, Annie left a 20-year career in marketing. She opened her practice, Annie Lisa Life — a space rooted in the science of the subconscious mind. She sits down with Lyndsay to talk about the day the call came, the signs and messages that started arriving from her sister afterward, and PSYCH-K®, the modality she now uses to help clients rewrite the patterns running 95% of their lives.This conversation doesn't stay in the dark. Annie and Lyndsay get into the work of Bruce Lipton and Greg Braden, the question almost no one wants to sit with: who would you actually be without your pain? And why energy medicine isn't woo, it's the physics most of us were never taught. They dig into secondary gain, epigenetics, signs from departed loved ones, and the quiet subconscious loops that keep the same chapter playing on repeat.Who murdered Dr. Teresa Sievers? You will have to buy the book to find out the rest of her story!Episode Highlights:(00:00) Introduction to the Pain Game Podcast(01:43) Personal Loss and Grief(03:55) The Impact of Trauma on Healing(09:52) The Subconscious Mind and Its Influence(17:16) Changing Subconscious Programs for Healing(24:07) Understanding Chronic Pain and Subconscious Influence(28:53) The Fear of Letting Go of Pain(33:54) The Power of the Subconscious Mind(37:07) Energy Medicine: The Science Behind Healing(40:56) Collective Responsibility for Change(44:30) The Journey of Healing and TransformationFind Annie Lisa Online Here:Website: annielisalife.comInstagram: @annielisalifeFacebook: AnnielisalifeLinkedIn: Annie LisaTikTok: AnnieLisaLifeYouTube: Annie LisaBook: What My Sister Told Me After She Was MurderedFind The Pain Game Podcast Online Here:Website: thepaingamepodcast.comInstagram: @thepaingamepodcastFacebook: The Pain Game PodcastLinkedIn: Lyndsay SopranoYouTube: The Pain Game PodcastSubscribe on YouTube | Merch Shop is OPEN!! | COMING SOON: The Pain Hub - A Women's Healing Community.

Your host Margaret Meloni explores the First Noble Truth—the foundation of Buddhist teaching that so many Western practitioners initially reject. She shares the remarkable story of growing up as a questioning Catholic, becoming an atheist, and ultimately finding a spiritual home in Buddhism. But more than that, discover how the loss of her parents and her partner transformed her understanding of suffering from something bleak into an invitation to truly live. Through personal narrative and Buddhist teaching, you'll learn why "dukkha" (often mistranslated as "suffering") is actually the doorway to liberation, and how confronting our mortality can teach us what truly matters. This episode weaves together the Buddha's teachings on impermanence, the wisdom of the Kalama Sutta, and the practical meditation skills that sustained Margaret through the most difficult periods of her life. Whether you're new to Buddhism or a longtime practitioner, this episode offers fresh perspective on the teaching that anchors all Buddhist practice.

Are you building your business from a script you've mastered, or from the message that actually lights you up? In this episode, we sit down with Presidential Diamond Cherie Burton, a founding member of the Essential Emotions team who has spent 17+ years at the intersection of psychology, emotional science, and essential oils. Cherie's story isn't a straight line to the top. It's a journey through burnout, FDA compliance challenges, personal loss, and the kind of deep inner work that ultimately became her greatest business asset. Cherie shares why she walked away from the "go, go, go" hustle model to build something more sustainable and more powerful, centered on the Breakthrough Circle. We dive into the mental health crisis that is reshaping what people are hungry for, why essential oils are literal pattern interrupters at a chemical and spiritual level, and how a free, duplicatable gathering model is opening hearts and creating enrollment in a way that a standard oils class simply cannot anymore. We also unpack the principle that changed everything for Andy and Cherie both: do what lights your soul, but teach what duplicates. Whether you are a new builder looking for a fresh way to introduce oils or a seasoned leader who has been feeling flat in your business, this conversation will remind you that the most powerful thing you can bring to your team is not a perfected script. It is your own ongoing, messy, real healing journey. Join us every Wednesday at 8:30am MT you can join Andy as he talks with top builders from around the globe to shine a light on the very best tips, tools, and mindset shifts to reach your goals.

Now on the outside, he's focused on helping others—especially those dealing with grief, trauma, and rebuilding after rock bottom.

I sat down with Monica Cornitcher, CEO and co-founder of Medase Cocktails, a premium non-alcoholic beverage brand redefining what it means to drink without alcohol. What started as a simple desire for a real cocktail experience without the after-effects turned into a six-figure investment and a fast-growing brand that's now catching the attention of major retailers.Monica shares how she and her co-founder Inga Dyer went from Zoom conversations during the pandemic to building a fully developed beverage company. Instead of rushing the process, they leaned into research, worked with a food scientist, and built a five-year strategy before launching. Their focus was clear: create authentic, full-flavor cocktails that people actually recognize and crave.In this episode, Monica opens up about the real cost of building a physical product, navigating grief after losing her co-founder, and the strategy behind growing through direct-to-consumer before entering retail.

Rashi explains that “Tzav” signifies encouragement, especially where there is financial loss. Even those serving in the Beis Hamikdash, like the Kohanim, required strengthening when their service did not yield material gain.

You'd think as the son of the founder Richard Walker OBE could have walked straight into the top job at Iceland Foods - the supermarket empire his parents built from a tiny shop in North Shropshire. Instead, he spent years building his own property empire in Poland, determined to prove himself on his own terms. But when his mother was diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer's Richard decided it was time to be closer to the family unit and join the business, starting at the very bottom stacking shelves in London stores - the best year of his life, he claims. Since then, he's transformed Iceland into one of Britain's most pioneering retailers, removing palm oil from all own-brand products, launching radical campaigns on plastic and food poverty, and proposing that low-risk offenders serve their sentences working in Iceland stores rather than taking up valuable space in prison. This is a masterclass in how to earn respect, and use business as a platform for change.LESSONS YOU'LL LEARN:Never ever ever ever give up - originally Richard's father's mantra that carried Iceland through countless crises. When kicked out of his own company, he started a rival chain that became his ticket back in. Tenacity isn't just admirable - it's essential.Prove yourself from the bottom up - Richard spent a year stacking shelves to earn his right to lead. The privilege of family succession means nothing without the respect of 30,000 employees who need to see you're one of them.There's a difference between delegation and abdication - leading 30,000 people requires trusting an amazing team while keeping your eye on the details. Effective leadership is knowing when to step back and when to dive in.Get comfortable being uncomfortable - whether it's climbing Everest with failing eyesight, lying next to a dead body at 29,000 feet, or building a business from scratch in Poland where you don't speak the language, growth lives outside your comfort zone. Embrace the risk.Appreciate what you already have - Chasing unicorns (like becoming an MP) can blind you to the platform you already possess. Richard realised Iceland gave him more power to drive change than any backbench seat ever could.

Episode #162: Award-winning actress Hannah Barefoot joins us for an insightful conversation filled with warmth and inspiration. Celebrating her 20th wedding anniversary, Hannah shares the joys and challenges of motherhood, from raising a teenage son dabbling in day trading to nurturing her creative spirit over a decade in Los Angeles. Together, we explore the magic of embracing each moment, balancing family life with artistic endeavors, and the unique quirks that make our married last names a source of humor and curiosity. Hannah offers a rare glimpse into the world of actors who thrive without the spotlight of household fame. Through candid reflections, she discusses the resilience needed to maintain a successful career in acting, the crucial role of agents and managers, and the power of self-improvement. We turn the spotlight on the importance of separating self-worth from professional outcomes, using unexpected metaphors to shed light on resilience and adaptability in the industry, moving beyond the "starving artist" stereotype. As we continue our engaging chat, we journey through themes of resilience and healing, inspired by the making of the "Wyoming Christmas Carol" film. Set against the stunning backdrop of Cody, Wyoming, this heartwarming project weaves together family, music, and second chances. We delve into our shared experiences of adversity and healing, drawing inspiration from the Japanese art of kintsugi to celebrate imperfection and growth. Listeners are invited to engage with the film project and find empowerment in their own paths of healing and contribution.
