Voici l'Évangile du samedi 13 septembre 2025 : « Un bon arbre ne donne pas de fruit pourri » (Lc 6, 43-49) En ce temps-là, Jésus disait à ses disciples : « Un bon arbre ne donne pas de fruit pourri ; jamais non plus un arbre qui pourrit ne donne de bon fruit. Chaque arbre, en effet, se reconnaît à son fruit : on ne cueille pas des figues sur des épines ; on ne vendange pas non plus du raisin sur des ronces. L'homme bon tire le bien du trésor de son cœur qui est bon ; et l'homme mauvais tire le mal de son cœur qui est mauvais : car ce que dit la bouche, c'est ce qui déborde du cœur. Et pourquoi m'appelez-vous en disant : “Seigneur ! Seigneur !” et ne faites-vous pas ce que je dis ? Quiconque vient à moi, écoute mes paroles et les met en pratique, je vais vous montrer à qui il ressemble. Il ressemble à celui qui construit une maison. Il a creusé très profond et il a posé les fondations sur le roc. Quand est venue l'inondation, le torrent s'est précipité sur cette maison, mais il n'a pas pu l'ébranler parce qu'elle était bien construite. Mais celui qui a écouté et n'a pas mis en pratique ressemble à celui qui a construit sa maison à même le sol, sans fondations. Le torrent s'est précipité sur elle, et aussitôt elle s'est effondrée ; la destruction de cette maison a été complète. » Cet enregistrement est proposé bénévolement pour répandre la Parole de Dieu

Would it have been better to axe Ben Cherington at the end of last season? Bob isn't sold that things will ever click for Oneil Cruz. Did Bob have any takes on the NHL Draft? It doesn't seem like this draft features any generational players.

Bob likes the different ways the team used Minkah Fitzpatrick on Sunday in LA. Bob talked about the need to take more shots down the field and why he would attack. The chat shifted to hockey and the test that faces the Penguins tonight against the Avalanche.
How can the Steelers open games faster instead of just coming alive late? The Steelers used more power run stuff against LA. Should the Steelers just make their run game more downhill instead of zone concepts? KDKA TV legend Bob Pompeani joined the show.

And will Tristan Jarry have to look over his shoulder at some point this season? Chris said he shouldn't because he is being paid like one of the best players in the game at his position.

In this episode, I'll reveal the backstory of my participation in Fast Fall Women. But first, what was I thinking? I went from no one knowing about my experiences being raised by a mom with manic depression – to today, the world being able to hear one of my most vulnerable moments for $18.95.

Whenever you're feeling stuck, peruse Melissa's thoughtfully compiled tips and exercises and you'll be creating magic in no time.” – Suzy Batiz, Chief Executive and Visionary Officer, ~Pourri, The Makers of Poo~Pourri, supernatural, Alive OS® “Melissa's words are authentic and important. She is a great listener and now shares reality-based strategies for imagining your own imperfect, fulfilling life.” – Martha Hennessey, Former New Hampshire State Senator / House of Representative “This is the book for a mom who wants a second jet engine to embark on her own journey from thinking she will have to wait another lifetime to dream big to knowing she can take steps right now to uncover and do what she would find more fulfilling at this life stage. Melissa writes both intimately and conversationally about topics that many moms around the world can relate to (some dads too). She invites the reader into a personal and deep journey about topics that are crucially important to uncover what would make a mom truly happy to work on...even after the kids are in bed. It was an honor and a pleasure to speak with her for an interview, which she has included excerpts of in this book, too!” - Ken Honda, Japan's bestselling zen millionaire, author of Happy Money: The Japanese Art of Making Peace with Your Money Moms like us with big dreams and school-age kids: For moms like me, the pandemic was an opportunity to re-evaluate and course-correct things in our lives we weren't thrilled with. Coming out of this period, sluggish yet motivated, so many of us can use this book to help us wake up! If you're looking to refresh, reenergize, and yes, reimagine a better version of your life, this book is for you.

Let's connect on Instagram. https://www.instagram.com/melissallarena/ Send me a “hi” DM on Insta letting me know you caught this week's episode. I'd love to know who is listening. Welcome to episode 194. Do you have a great business idea stuck in your head? What if getting it out of your head would put $30K in your pocket? Why would anyone procrastinate on executing such an idea? Meet Carin today's live coaching session participant. This is her situation and yet she has been procrastinating launching her $30K idea. Does this sound familiar? The conversation started with this $30K challenge yet as is often the case for moms in business specifically there is often more going on in the background that is affecting our sanity. So what might be the root cause of Carin's hesitation to release her idea into the world and just stating selling it? Tune in to find out! You'll hear how through candid and brutally honest coaching questions I uncovered that her procrastinating the launch of this idea was just a symptom of something much bigger: she is actually a hesitant to let go of her old life ( she's in the middle of an incomplete divorce). So it turns out, the issue is not really the offer, the credentials, or the details of binging her offer to the world. Sound familiar? Tune in. if this episode resonates with you as a mom in business then sign-up for a free break-through session with me. This is the link for my calendar: https://www.melissallarena.com/sessions/ Carin Cooper is a coach who helps women who are agonizing about their jobs and leaving their kids how to create income from home. She has worked hard on deprogramming herself from feeling like she is not enough. She has worked on her money story and hired a mentor who has a framework for creating a new coaching offer. You will hear how self-aware Carin is regarding the world of coaching. Use this coaching session, to see if the areas of your own life where you might require a therapist instead of a coach. I'm sharing this conversation because the truth is that not every business challenge can be fixed on the surface. No number of affirmations, marketing funnel hacks, or shifts in money stories are going to change you when you are in the middle of a personal life tragedy like a divorce. So consider this episode a good gauge of where a coach's expertise may be insufficient. In this episode, you will hear these ideas expressed: ● How to know when procrastinating is just a symptom vs. the real issue in business stagnation ● Accepting change vs. resisting it; what can this look like for moms with a lot on their minds ● Signs that you are avoiding a bigger emotional issue by investing in temporary business fixes ● The fear of big life changes and getting back up ● Investing in coaching vs. when you might need to invest in therapy ● What questions might you need to answer to get to the bottom of your procrastinating? ● How to address pain beyond the surface when coaches are not helping ● What it sounds like when coaching is not the answer SHARE this episode with a mom founder, entrepreneur, or creator who is procrastinating launching a new offer.

DM me to talk about the fear of judgment. Is it real to you too? https://www.instagram.com/melissallarena/ Have you ever felt trapped within your own survival story? This week, we walk through this very journey with Serin, a mother and author who finds herself entangled in the chains of her past. As we traverse the winding path of her life, we uncover the deep-seated fears that have held her back from achieving her full potential as a mom and writer. Diving into the heart of her narrative, we delve into the impact of early childhood trauma and explore the powerful role of self-sabotage in Serin's life. Together, we shed light on the tangible tools and lessons that can aid her quest for progress and growth. This is a live coaching session where I coach Serin, an author with one daughter who is holding on to an old story that is getting in the way of writing her book, a memoir. Sound familiar? She has done a lot of work to fight that story of survival but she still finds herself using it as the reason why she is not earning at her full potential nor making progress in writing her memoir. A lot came up related to early childhood trauma, which I have to say is often behind self-sabotage, impostor syndrome, and playing very small. Will Serin hold on tightly to her story or will she let it go after 40 years?
