In this groundbreaking episode recorded live at the Eudemonia Summit, Gabrielle Bernstein joins forces with Columbia University neuroscientist and The Awakened Brain author Dr. Lisa Miller to reveal the scientific proof behind manifestation and spiritual connection. Together, they bridge the gap between ancient wisdom and cutting-edge neuroscience, explaining how a spiritual life physically restructures the brain through the "bonding network"—the same neurological circuit that allows us to feel safe, held, and guided by the Universe. You'll discover why shifting your "Ventral Attention Network" from a state of control to one of receptivity is the biological secret to manifesting fast. Featuring powerful experiential practices this deep dive provides the ultimate evidence that you are biologically wired for miracles and never alone on your journey.Try Gabrielle's FREE magnetic energy meditation to supercharge your attracting powers http://bit.ly/40gOfueJoin the 21-Day Trust the Universe Challenge to strengthen your faith and surrender control https://bit.ly/4lK34OpRead Gabrielle's #1 NYT Bestselling book: Self Help: This Is Your Chance to Change Your Life. http://bit.ly/4j1asmARead Dr. Lisa Miller's book: The Awakened Brain https://amzn.to/49wNYIwThis talk was filmed at the Eudemonia Summit, find out more: http://bit.ly/4sEBw10If you feel you need additional support, please consult this list of safety, recovery, and mental health resources.Disclaimer: This podcast is intended to educate, inspire, and support you on your personal journey towards inner peace.

In hard parenting seasons, recognizing God's presence can feel complicated. Not because God is absent — but because His faithfulness often shows up quietly. In Episode 3 of the Still Faithful series, we explore what it means to notice God's hand without forcing gratitude, positivity, or resolution. This episode is an invitation to spiritual awareness rooted in honesty, not pressure. If you've ever wondered whether you're "missing" God in a painful season — or felt unsure how to talk about His presence when nothing feels resolved — this episode offers a gentle place to pause and reflect. This conversation isn't about finding silver linings. It's about making room to notice what's been steady, subtle, and sustaining.   In this episode, we talk about: Why God's faithfulness often feels quiet in hard years The difference between spiritual awareness and forced positivity How God's presence may show up through people, restraint, or truth rather than outcomes Why "I don't know yet" can still be a faithful answer How to remain open to God without demanding clarity   Reflection questions: Take your time with these — there's no rush. Where do I recognize God's hand, even faintly, in this past season? Who did God place in my life to steady me when I felt unsure? What truth did God gently remind me of when everything felt uncertain? And remember: If the answer feels like "I don't know yet," that's okay. God meets us there too.   A gentle reminder: God's faithfulness doesn't disappear in hard years. Sometimes it just shows up quietly. Faith doesn't require forced meaning or immediate clarity — only continued presence.   About the series: Still Faithful Still Faithful is a podcast series for Christian parents navigating painful, unresolved parenting journeys — including estrangement, distance, and seasons where a child's choices challenge deeply held beliefs. This series is designed to help you: Release shame Name pain honestly Recognize God's presence without pressure Stay rooted when trust feels fragile Move forward faithfully, one step at a time God has entrusted this journey and your child to you. As you engage with Him — even quietly, even uncertainly — He will equip you for each next step.

Why does patience feel so hard—especially when you're doing all the “right” things? In this special re-air from a 2022 Dear Gabby Q&A, Gabrielle Bernstein explores one of the most misunderstood spiritual principles: patience as the natural result of faith, not something you force. Responding to listener questions about manifestation and feeling stuck, Gabrielle reframes patience as an energetic state that emerges when fear transforms into trust. Through live coaching, she offers practical guidance on surrendering to divine timing while navigating financial pressure, worthiness, and entrepreneurship. This episode is a powerful reminder that manifestation doesn't respond to hustle—it responds to grounded belief, alignment, and faith. When trust is strong, patience becomes effortless.Try Gabrielle's FREE magnetic energy meditation to supercharge your attracting powers http://bit.ly/40gOfueRead Gabrielle's #1 NYT Bestselling book: The Universe Has Your Back: Transform Fear Into Faith. http://bit.ly/45T1sfcIf you feel you need additional support, please consult this list of safety, recovery, and mental health resources.Disclaimer: This podcast is intended to educate, inspire, and support you on your personal journey towards inner peace.

“Send Coach John a message”Today being the day that we are honoring Martin Luther King, Jr., I found a post from Jon Gordon (@JonGordon11)  and his #MindsetMonday thoughts shared this quote:  “If you can't fly then run, if you can't run then walk, if you can't walk then crawl, but whatever you do you have to keep moving forward.” What a powerful reminder for every single day, but especially today! I found this catching my eye for many reasons - one for sure is that I need to keep moving forward in my attempt to not let negativity, anger, hatred, etc., enter into my heart and mind. Too much of the BS out there that I unfortunately let into my life and I can't let it go. This morning was no exception. People I know, like and thought I respected, keep putting stuff out there that simply sets to tear apart and cause trouble. I will keep moving forward, however I have to, so that I can keep encouraging others, putting out things that help people on their life's journey, along with trying to balance out the “crud” that people put out there. One of the things that I remind myself of is that the people that put out the “crud”, are really sharing what they are all about, the problems they have in life, the hurt they are going through, etc. It's worth my efforts every day for sure!  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. **

After a divorce, many people notice something unsettling: their mind feels more negative, more guarded, and quicker to expect the worst. If that sounds familiar, this episode is for you. In today's conversation, we explore positivity bias—the brain's natural tendency to notice and expect good outcomes—and why that bias often weakens after divorce. Drawing on brain research highlighted by psychiatrist Dr. Daniel Amen, we'll talk about how trauma and emotional loss shift the brain into survival mode, making negativity feel automatic—not because something is wrong with you, but because your brain is trying to protect you. We'll also look at how healing happens—not through forcing positivity or denying pain, but by gently retraining the brain to recognize safety, hope, and goodness again. From a faith-centered perspective, we reflect on the steady optimism of President Gordon B. Hinckley, who taught the importance of believing that tomorrow can be better than today—even when life feels heavy. If you've been wondering why hope feels harder after divorce—and how to rebuild it without guilt or pressure—this episode offers clarity, compassion, and practical encouragement. ✨ If this podcast has been helpful to you, make sure you're subscribed so you don't miss an episode.

There are instances when a moment is enhanced by the situation and even more so, sometimes sports become more than sports. Alex has been in his feelings over a recent sporting event, but to an even further extent, the why. At the end of the day, this stuff does matter. Not only did the result of the game not go his way, but the grandstanding that happened afterwards has taken the world by storm. Positivity has somehow become a controversy. Jakub celebrated a birthday for one of his kids and felt a moment that tugged on his heart strings. Life of a millennial parent is HARD.   Executive Producers: Ian Lotts, Phillip Booker, Wes Bradley, & Tim Bland All WYSP Social Links

Today, we tackle modern Christianity's lightning rod—Joel Osteen. Love him or loathe him, you can't ignore him. He's built the biggest church in America, filled arenas, sold millions of books, and smiled for the cameras. But beneath the surface? Criticism. Controversy. Accusations of watered-down doctrine. “Encouragement over repentance.” “Positivity over discipleship.” The world applauds. Many believers balk.In a culture obsessed with comfort, Paul M. Neuberger asks: Are we trading truth for popularity? Are we making disciples or just fans? Because Jesus is still Lord when the crowds cheer and when the world mocks.So what will you do when your moment of truth arrives? Will you stand for Scripture or drift with the crowd?Get ready, gentlemen. This one's raw, real, and rooted in truth."Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. 14 But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it." –Matthew 7:13-14Episode Highlights:08:11 - Because in the kingdom of God, charisma is not calling, success is not sanctification, and popularity is never proof of truth.43:10 - A gospel that promises blessing without repentance is incomplete. A Christ who saves without commanding obedience is misrepresented. A Christianity that avoids offense at all costs will eventually lose its power.48:03 - At C-Suite for Christ, we're going to continue to say the hard things, confront the uncomfortable truths, and stand unapologetically on the Word of God. Not because it's easy, not because it's popular, but because it's right.Connect with Paul M. NeubergerWebsite

“Send Coach John a message”I picked this one up from arobmoney (@arobmoney) and I think it's a great message of community celebrating things that bring people together. Sports (and other things) do that magically. Once again, I'm intrigued on how to connect with more of things like this in my life, because those “things” are out there for sure. I want to have them help me pay attention more to things that really matter in life instead of the ugliness that is all around us! Hope this helps you do the same. This is spot on - it is indeed, more than a game… it's about life!  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.  ** I would appreciate anyone to try clicking on the top of the show notes where it says "Send us a text" to leave a few thoughts / comments / questions.  It's a new feature that I'd like to see how it works. **
