Today on the show, I share my review of the brand-new Affirm Films release, "Soul on Fire," starring Joel Courtney, John Corbett, Stephanie Szostak, and Masey McLain. This heartfelt and gripping film tells the true story of John O'Leary and his remarkable triumph over the tragedy of a horrific accident in which a fire burned 100% of his body. Given only a 1% chance of survival, John now lives as a testament to God's amazing grace and travels around sharing hope with many. Listen to my review, and then watch this incredible film with your family—you won't want to miss it! What amazing things has God done in your life?

They examined various aspects of the story, including its cinematic references, character motivations, and the decline of traditional movie theaters, while sharing personal memories of past theater experiences. The discussion concluded with an exploration of the story's themes of illusions and reality, monster encounters, and the challenges of adapting Barker's work into different media formats.    They then began analyzing Clive Barker's "Son of Celluloid," discussing its narrative structure divided into three acts and its themes of ambition and cancer as metaphors. The story follows Barbario, a fugitive criminal who hides in an old movie theater and watches a Fellini film while bleeding to death, unaware that his cancer is the result of his dangerous lifestyle. The group noted that while the story contains dated references to Marilyn Monroe and John Wayne, it effectively captures the nostalgia of old movie theaters and the magic of cinema.     The group discussed Clive Barker's story about a theater that became haunted after changing from a place of worship to a cinema, with José explaining how the building accumulated decades of audience emotions and became a "cathedral of collective dreams." They explored the character development of Birdie, the ticket lady who is bored and self-conscious about her weight, and how her intelligence becomes her strength when facing the antagonist. The conversation also touched on the decline of cinema attendance and the specific details of the Tron Ares movie, including Bruce Boxleitner's decision not to reprise his role as Tron.   Memories of Classic Movie Theaters The group discussed their memories of old movie theaters, including the smell of cigarettes and popcorn, torn seats, and pre-movie slides advertising local businesses. They shared their first movie theater experiences, with Ryan remembering "Sinbad and the Eye of the Tiger" and Blair recalling "Star Wars" at a drive-in. José shared his fond memories of watching "E.T." as a child and mentioned the original darker treatment for the film. The conversation then shifted to Ricky's investigation of Lindy Lee's boyfriend in the bathroom, where he unexpectedly finds himself in a Western-themed setting. Monster's Failed Illusion Tactics The group discussed the story's themes of illusions manifesting in reality, particularly focusing on a scene where a monster creates a John Wayne illusion to threaten characters. They analyzed how the monster's aggressive approach failed when Ricky punched the illusion, leading to its dissolution. The discussion highlighted Ricky's character contrast with Birdie's correct choices, and noted that the monster would likely try a different tactic after this failed attempt at intimidation. Horror at the Movie Theater The group discussed a horror story involving a movie theater, where Birdie discovers a bloody scene and an unconscious man, while Lindy Lee disappears after seeing a bunny. Birdie attempts to call for help but is thwarted by a mysterious voice that locks the doors, forcing her to retrieve keys from Ricky. Despite her initial fear, Birdie wisely decides to seek help rather than stay trapped, and she eventually finds the body of a victim whose eyes have been violently removed. Marilyn Monster Seduction Analysis The group discussed a scene from a graphic novel where a monster in the form of Marilyn Monroe seduces Ricky, leading to his death. They analyzed the visual and narrative elements, including the use of flickering lights to create the illusion and the monster's need for attention. The conversation touched on themes of immortality through pop culture icons and Ricky's foolish decision to engage with the monster despite the danger. They also briefly mentioned Birdie's attempt to defend herself with a crowbar. Psychic Monster Comic Adaptation The group discussed the comic adaptation of a story involving a monster that feeds on psychic energy from moviegoers. They analyzed key plot points, including Birdie's armed defense against attackers, her escape attempt through a theater fire exit, and her confrontation with the monster. José highlighted the monster's transformation and its connection to the character Barbario, while Ryan and Blair noted the story's exploration of themes like ambition, waste, and the impact of movies on people's lives. The discus Adapting 'Son of Celluloid The group discussed Clive Barker's "Son of Celluloid," focusing on its themes of body horror, celebrity worship, and the dangers of spectatorship. They explored the challenges of adapting the story into a film, particularly regarding the use of real celebrities' likenesses. José shared insights from Barker's early attempts to pitch the story to studios and the eventual difficulties in securing funding. The conversation also touched on the graphic novel adaptation by Steve Niles and Les Edwards, highlighting its painted artwork and the availability of original pages for sale. The group agreed to explore the story further in their next episode, which will focus on "Rawhead Rex."

In the third episode of the Women in Architecture series, Katerina sits down with multidisciplinary designer Feyi Quadri about her journey over the past year and the lessons she's learned about rest, self-care, and avoiding burnout in the demanding field of architecture.  Feyi reflects on past goals, the challenges she faced, and her decision to take a sabbatical to prioritize her well-being. Their conversation explores how stress can manifest physically and the strategies they both use to cope with professional pressures, including regular movement, time outdoors, and mindful breaks.  They also discuss the importance of self-compassion, listening to your body, and embracing the pace that supports personal and professional growth.

In the second episode of the Women in Architecture series, Katerina sits down with architect and business owner Liz Sydnor about her journey navigating the second year of running her own business. Liz reflects on the growth and lessons she's experienced, including the importance of letting go of certain roles to protect her well-being and the ongoing challenge of finding balance between work and personal life.  Their conversation highlights the power of networking as more than professional connections—it's about building genuine community and support. Liz also shares insights from her upcoming book, which is designed to empower women in architecture by opening conversations around vulnerability, authenticity, and mental health in the profession.  Together, they discuss how authenticity creates stronger relationships, why consistency matters in networking, and how embracing the realities of the profession—from showing emotion in the workplace to architecture's influence on all aspects of design—helps foster resilience and growth.   Mentioned: Listen to Liz's previous episode on FTH: episode 132  www.sydnor-design.com  Instagram: @sydnordesign  Liz on Linkedin Katerina's website done by Liz https://www.kbarchitectinc.com/   Grab your copy of The Mindful Blueprint for Launching Your Architecture Firm  Use code honeycomb20 for 20% off!

UGI Corporation's Global Enterprise Lead, Learning & Development Wendy Laverty shares how “Breakthrough Thinking” is reshaping leadership, structure, and strategy at UGI. She explains how a series of workshops with team members has encouraged intentional reflection, language, and a culture of curiosity that's unlocking new solutions and sustainable change. Show Notes:UGI's Wendy Laverty shares many inspirational and actionable ways to inspire better thinking that leads to sustainable change. Her key points include: Breakthrough Thinking is intentional, not accidental. Leaders at UGI are asking “I wonder why/if/how…” to challenge assumptions, see blind spots, and design new pathways instead of defaulting to past practice.Language shapes outcomes. Words “get caught like colds.” The way leaders speak influences mindsets, behaviors, and results—so UGI is practicing saying the future they intend to create, then aligning actions to it.Structure enables speed. AmeriGas (a UGI company) shifted to a decentralized, pod-based model—returning authority to frontline managers, running weekly problem-solving calls, and using focus groups to surface gaps and improve the system.Trust + feedback fuel change.Transparent, authentic feedback sessions—and a bias toward curiosity over criticism—are building a culture where learning is continuous and leaders model the behavior they want to see.Lead with “both–and” and look ahead to AI-first learning. UGI equips leaders to hold healthy polarities (e.g., candor and diplomacy) and is exploring AI-first learning approaches to personalize development and drive measurable business results. Wendy recommends the following books:Navigating Polarities Using Thinking TransformationLearning RevolutionPowered by Learning earned Awards of Distinction in the Podcast/Audio and Business Podcast categories from The Communicator Awards and a Gold and Silver Davey Award.

Today, on the show, I explore the question: "What is revival?" Recently, we have witnessed numerous events in our culture referred to as revivals, along with a significant resurgence of interest in spiritual matters. This makes it especially important for us to understand what revival means from a biblical perspective. By doing so, we can confidently stand for the truth and serve as vessels to help those who are lost and in need find the answers they seek—answers that can only be found in the person and work of Jesus Christ. As you listen, my prayer for you is that you will commit to sharing the truth of the gospel with both boldness and a spirit of love and compassion, bringing light into the darkness!

In the first episode of the Women in Architecture series, Katerina is joined by Shadia Jaramillo, a project architect and co-founder of AIA Florida Northwest Women in Architecture. Their conversation explores how architects can create balance between professional responsibilities and personal well-being.  Shadia shares her journey of career growth, the joy she finds in her work, and why gratitude is such an important daily practice. She opens up about the challenges of setting boundaries, the power of saying no, and how choosing quality over quantity—both in work and volunteering—leads to more meaningful outcomes.  Together, they reflect on the idea that architecture is a profession, not a hobby, and discuss how authenticity and connection shape stronger relationships in the field. This episode is a reminder that self-care and grace are essential for avoiding burnout, and that asking for help is not a weakness but a step toward collective success.   Mentioned: Listen to Shadia's previous episode on FTH: episode 89  Follow Shadia on Instagram Connect with Shadia on Linkedin   Grab your copy of The Mindful Blueprint for Launching Your Architecture Firm  Use code honeycomb20 for 20% off!

We hear from Rosaria Butterfield about how the Word of God convicted her, and I discuss the importance of being both bold and gentle when sharing the truth of the Gospel. Additionally, I address a crucial element often missing in our presentation of the gospel: repentance.

We're celebrating 100 episodes of Powered by Learning with a special conversation with past podcast guests Dr. Kristal Walker, Marjorie Van Roon, Ajay Pangarkar, Robyn DeFelice, and Connie Malamed. Together, we reflect on the past five years in L&D—AI's promise (and limits), the rise of data-informed decisions, accountability for performance and ROI, and the renewed push for personalized, human-centered learning. Listen for an energizing look at where L&D is headed—and how your organization can evolve. Show Notes: Our podcast guests and co-hosts share practical perspectives you can use now while looking ahead to the future of L&D. AI is a powerful assistant and creative partner—use it to draft content, visuals, questions, and interactions, but always apply expert human review to ensure accuracy and instructional soundness. - Connie Malamed, Mastering Instructional Design Community The real shift is toward data and performance—L&D must tighten its partnership with the business, lead with data-informed decisions, and mature its advisory role. - Robyn DeFelice, Learning Strategist Treat AI as an accelerator, not a replacement—let it handle the basics so teams can focus on human-centered elements; expect growing emphasis on professional upskilling and certifications to keep a “seat at the table.” - Dr. Kristal Walker, VP Employee Wellbeing, Sweetwater Accountability is rising—L&D must show performance and financial impact. Build financial literacy to demonstrate value or risk losing resources to other priorities. - Ajay Pangarkar, Author & Speaker AI boosts brainstorming, editing, translation, and recommendations, but watch for bias, hallucinations, and cultural nuance; learners prefer shorter, visual, sometimes in-person experiences, and Gen Alpha will amplify demand for interactive, gamified learning. - Marjorie Van Roon, Senior Manager, Learning & Development, Best Buy Canada The d'Vinci co-hosts also shared some important key points: AI is still in its early days for L&D—what matters most is balancing ethical use with creating better, higher-impact learning. Instructional designers must remain the “human check and balance” to avoid bias, hallucinations, or copyright issues. - Luke Kempski, d'Vinci CEOAI works best as a creative partner and brainstorming tool. At d'Vinci, teams use it across functions—from design to strategy to development—but always within clear governance policies that align with client expectations. -  Mason Scuderi, d'Vinci PresidentThe rising learner demand for convenient, relevant, and personal training is pushing L&D professionals to grow their own design and consulting skills. The biggest opportunity ahead is balancing business impact with meaningful learner experiences.
