SUMMARY: Guest: Lara Silverman — comedic actress, jazz singer, violinist, author, Stanford Law grad; formerly a federal prosecutor. -Faith roots: Grew up in a large Romanian Christian family (with Syrian Christian heritage); accepted Christ at 7; faith deepened after her aunt's death from cancer. -Calling to law: Loved advocacy and public speaking; passed the bar after intense study; landed her dream role as a federal prosecutor in San Francisco. -Health crisis: Fell acutely ill in week two on the job with a rare, under-researched neurological vertigo disorder; tried ~30–150 therapies and ~38 medications (often worsened symptoms); bedridden for three years on a bedpan; ultimately resigned her post. -Ongoing illness: Continues to experience constant spinning sensations; multiple tentative diagnoses, no definitive cure; learned to walk again despite worsening symptoms when upright. -Spiritual wrestle: Initial confusion turned to seasons of bitterness and anger (more than depression); felt misunderstood by some believers when she sensed God calling her to accept ongoing suffering. -Acceptance and surrender: Believes God spoke that she would not be fully healed on this side of eternity; fasting exposed idols of health, marriage, and career; moved toward surrender and trust. -Meeting Matt: Church acquaintance (youth leader) who reached out during her bedridden years; he had suffered childhood cancer and was later diagnosed with terminal cancer; they formed a deep bond through shared suffering. -Marriage and loss: Married despite her illness and his terminal diagnosis; experienced “joy in grief” through ministry and creativity; Matt died a year later; Lara testifies to God's peace and preparation through the loss. -Joy amid grief: Practiced finding “sprinkles of joy” (comedy clips, music, niece's smile, devotionals); launched The Silverman Show (YouTube: comedy, music, theology); organized jazz fundraisers, including $13K raised for Haiti. -Theology of suffering: *Critiques “prosperity gospel light” in American church; calls for preparing believers to suffer well. *Emphasizes biblical themes: joy in suffering; God's intentional purposes; eternal rewards (e.g., “crown of life”); 2 Corinthians 4:17's “eternal weight of glory.” *Points to Isaiah 61 (double portion/redemption), 1 Peter 1:7 (tested faith), Job-like redemption ultimately fulfilled in eternity. *Cites Helen Roseveare's testimony about trusting God in suffering. -Identity transformation: Early identity tied to achievement and “gold stars”; illness stripped these; learned identity in Christ, not performance; challenged by Matt's loving rebukes about pride and usefulness. -Honest struggles: Jealousy when others receive “basic blessings” (marriage, children, health); wrestled with God's statement “I know what's best for you”; learning to believe God's wisdom without having micro-level reasons. -Church's role: Encourage sound theology of suffering, eternal perspective, and the call to “joy in grief”; avoid equating God's love solely with earthly blessings. -Memoir: Wrote her memoir from bed over eight months, capturing God's “receipts” (journaled answers, provisions, and lessons); aims to comfort sufferers with biblical reasons for suffering and stories of God's nearness. -Hope redefined: Realistic hope is anchored in eternity (John 11:25); freedom from fear of death empowers purposeful living now. -Key scriptures referenced: 2 Corinthians 4:17 (eternal glory) 1 Peter 1:7 (tested genuineness of faith) Isaiah 61 (redemption, double portion) Isaiah 43:19–20 (streams in the wilderness) Romans 8:29 (conformed to Christ) John 11:25 (life beyond death) -Core takeaway: God provides “streams in the desert.” Open your heart to receive and choose joy in the midst of grief; joy and sorrow can coexist, and God will redeem suffering—fully in eternity, and often with foretastes now.   PODCAST INTRO: What happens when the life you planned—brilliant career, healthy body, tidy faith, marriage and children—collides with relentless suffering? For comedian, jazz singer, author, violinist, and Stanford-trained attorney Lara Silverman, that colission became a calling. Lara spent years pursuing her dream of becoming a federal prosecutor—years of academic discipline, devoted goal setting, and passionate pursuit. After graduating from Stanford, she enters the grueling vetting and elimination process of 1000 hopeful lawyers with the goal of making it to the top 3. When she learns that she made it in the top 3 her dream becomes a reality…she is standing at the pinnacle of a major goal in her life. She was accepted as a federal prosecutor and begin the task of fully stepping into that role. Until in her second week on the job, she fell violently ill with what would later be discovered as a rare, unresolved neurological condition that keeps her in a constant state of the world spinning around her. She endures that condition to this day…8 years now, 3 of which left her bedridden, on a bedpan, being cared for and nursed by her parents. Thirty-eight medications failed. Careers, plans, family timelines—all stripped away. In her personal dark valley of multi layered deaths, her testimony is that not only does God meet her there, He has never left her. True to being a trained lawyer, in her effort to make sense of her spinning, crumbling world she uses the Word/Bible to question God's goodness and His fairness demanding that He explain Himself. She's met with firm, steady, unwavering love that consistently engages her pain inviting her from striving to surrender. Through Lara's fasting, God exposed hidden idols—health, marriage, career—not to shame her, but to set her free. Because I think we all know that if we build our lives on things that will fade, change, transition, not to mention the fact that we have no guarantees on anything we risk losing ourselves into despair and ruin. Then came an unlikely gift. As Lara lay in bed, a church acquaintance—Matt Silverman, a brilliant, joy-filled believer battling terminal cancer—began calling to pray and wrestle through theology with her. Friendship became love. They married, held jazz benefit concerts for Haiti, launched a small YouTube channel, and practiced “joy in grief” as a spiritual discipline. Exactly one year later, Matt went home to Jesus. Lara's testimony is not tidy. She speaks frankly about anger, bitterness, jealousy, and the ache of unanswered prayers. Yet she clings to promises many avoid: that suffering refines faith (1 Peter 1), forges intimacy with Christ, prepares us for eternity (2 Corinthians 4), and—even here—can be met with streams in the desert (Isaiah 43). She believes God will redeem every loss, whether in the here and now or in eternity—and that the doctrine of reward, often neglected, gives sturdy hope when the nights are long. Her invitation is simple but not without surrender and therefor difficult: Look for “sprinkles of joy” each day. Refuse to waste your pain—serve others through it. Live now with eternity in view. If you're not afraid to die, you can truly live. Sorrowful, yet always rejoicing. That's Lara's way through the wilderness—and a lifeline for anyone walking it today. In her memoir, Singing Through the Fire, she chronicles all of that's happened, how God shows up, the challenges she's put before Him and vice versa. What does it look like to struggle with God ? Lara provides examples, proof that He doesn't leave even when our faith is weak and ungodly. He holds us up when our faith falters and He sustains us through the most devastating emotional, mental, physical, battles. Let's listen in and find a reason to hope again, to find joy and to be comforted in what can feel like the wilderness. Live Loved and Thrive!

Series: GratefulWeek 2 Title: HospitalityMain Scripture: 1 Peter 4:8–10BIG IDEA:Hospitality is what happens when the love God pours into us gets poured out of us.When we are filled with gratitude, what comes out looks like hospitality.WEEK 2 - HOSPITALITYI. The Context of 1 PeterWritten to believers who were scattered, suffering, pressured, and afraid.Life was tight and overwhelming, but Peter calls them outward—not inward.“Above all, love each other deeply… offer hospitality… use your gifts to serve.”When life presses in, the way of Jesus presses out.Hospitality in a broken world is resistance and spiritual warfare. It's how we make room for others the way God made room for us.WEEK 2 - HOSPITALITYII. Big Vision for Your LifeTo live a life marked by hospitality—loved by God and sharing that love.Hospitality is not decorating your home—it's making space for people.It's not natural; it's formed. Built. Practiced.It's not a talent but the expression of a heart that has been loved.WEEK 2 - HOSPITALITYIII. Hospitality Is an ExpectationScripture repeatedly commands it:Romans 12:13 – “Practice hospitality.”Hebrews 13:2 – “Do not forget to show hospitality to strangers…”1 Peter 4:9 – “Offer hospitality without grumbling.”Pastors and elders must be hospitable (1 Timothy 3:2, Titus 1:8).Hospitality isn't optional for believers—it's part of Christlikeness.WEEK 2 - HOSPITALITYIV. Hospitality Starts With Being Loved1 Peter 4:8 — “Above all, love each other deeply…”Loving well begins with receiving love well.Many struggle to receive love because of wounds from their “inner child.”Spiritual maturity = seeing that inner child but not letting them steer your life.Christ shepherds us; we shepherd the fearful places inside us.You honor the child within you—but you don't let them lead.Many struggle to offer love because they still feel unknown, unsafe, or unloved.WEEK 2 - HOSPITALITYV. Hospitality Is Love in Action“Offer hospitality… without grumbling” reveals whether it's duty or delight.True hospitality makes room in your heart, not just your home or calendar.Not about hosting; about welcoming.If you're critical of others' hospitality, you may not feel welcome in your own heart.When we're strangers to ourselves, we bury others under unfair pressures.The church becomes powerful when its people carry hospitable hearts.Small groups are hospitality in action—spaces to be known and loved.WEEK 2 - HOSPITALITYVI. Open Heart Policy1 Peter 4:10 — “Faithful stewards of God's grace…”Hospitality is not “doing something nice.” It's distributing grace.Grace is meant to pass through you, not get stuck in you.Hospitality = living with an open heart, a welcoming presence, an inviting spirit.Limited perspective leads to harmful assumptions that close us off.Without an outlet for grace, our hearts become like the Dead Sea—receiving but never releasing.WEEK 2 - HOSPITALITYClosingHospitality is not a moment—it's a lifestyle.God made room for us; now we make room for others.Grace isn't meant to be stored. It's meant to be poured.We don't want to just say “thanks”—we want to live gratitude through hospitality.

Tebori tattooing, a traditional Japanese hand-poked method, is more than just a technique; it embodies a philosophy that emphasizes a profound human connection and energy transfer between the tattoo artist and the client. Practiced for thousands of years, this method involves using a long stick with needles attached to the end, allowing the artist to create tattoos without the aid of machines. This simplicity lies at the heart of the Tebori experience, fostering a unique and intimate atmosphere during the tattooing process, and our guest today is one of the masters of this craft.   In this episode of Chats & Tatts, host Aaron Della Vedova welcomes Rueben "Horikei" Kayden, a seasoned tattoo artist with 26 years of experience, to discuss the evolution of tattooing. The conversation delves into the past, present, and future of the industry, exploring how it has rapidly transformed over the years. The guest shares valuable insights, particularly about tabori tattooing, the traditional Japanese hand-poked method that has been practiced for thousands of years. Aaron and his guest reflect on the significance of this ancient technique in contrast to modern tattooing practices, setting the stage for a deep dive into the art and culture of tattooing.  Tune in for a thought-provoking discussion that highlights the artistry and craftsmanship behind tattoos. Chat Highlights: [00:01:06] Future of tattooing. [00:06:17] Tattooing in Japan. [00:10:28] Energy transfer in tattooing. [00:17:09] Spirituality in craftsmanship.

We're not in the business of being people's, you know, helping them be more personally responsible with their lives." -Aaron "It's a human to human contact. There's no electrons, there's no machine, there's no rotary, there's no cartridge, there's no nothing. It's simplicity at its best, right? It's art made by humans for humans." -Horikei   "You're like a horse with blinders on. You're just like the smell, you know, smell, sight, emotions, all of it's all interconnected." -Horikei   "I just know it's happening and it's beautiful and it's really become probably the thing I'm most happy about to have spent my life doing this art form." -Aaron   "Tebori is a human rhythm... it rocks you to sleep." -Horikei   "It was more dangerous to drive the fucking car than it was to go in under anesthesia." -Aaron   "We're tattooers, man. We're not in the business of being people's, you know, helping them be more personally responsible with their lives." -Aaron   "Comparison is the thief of all joy, man, for sure." -Horikei   Stay Connected: Chats & Tatts: Website: http://www.chatsandtatts.com⁠ Tik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@chatsandtatts  IG: http://www.instagram.com/chatsandtatts Chats & Tatts YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/chatsandtatts Connect with Aaron:⁠   Aaron IG:⁠ http://www.instagram.com/aarondellavedova⁠ Guru Tattoo: http://www.Gurutattoo.com Connect with Horikei: IG:https://www.instagram.com/horikei617/  

In the past few weeks clients of mine have:Let go of people they really liked but ultimately weren't the right fitSlowed down their dating practice to get more out of it (i.e. more ease, more fulfillment)Practiced taking space in the early days of a new relationship to better discern how they were feelingAnd in so doing, they're confronting pain, fear, grief, uncertainty....the meat of life :). Admittedly, I've been in a season of my life that has brought up a lot of those feelings, too. Today's episode is dedicated to the power of those emotions, those periods of life, as it relates to moving closer to what we want.Mentioned in this episode:Peter CroneWork with me PrivatelyConnect on InstagramWebsitePodcast Production by James Jorge

Aretha Franklin sang about it. Rodney Dangerfield joked about it. And Jackie Robinson famously said, like him or not, he'd earned it. R.E.S.P.E.C.T. We are living in a period where respect is a neglected virtue — too often sacrificed in public discourse, online exchanges, and everyday interactions. Robert L. “Bob” Dilenschneider aims to change that, even if only one interaction at a time. Bob is the founder of The Dilenschneider Group, which, since October 1991, has provided strategic advice and counsel to Fortune 500 companies, professional organizations, trade associations, educational institutions, and leading families and individuals around the world. Bob's newest book, his 20th, is Respect: How to Change the World One Interaction at a Time. The book is a timely reflection on the urgent need for civility in an era of deep division. Drawing on both his life and professional experience and the wisdom of 13 admired leaders, Respect outlines five practical strategies for restoring civility and rebuilding mutual understanding. “It can feel like the world is broken,” Bob acknowledges in his book. The solution, he believes, does not rest with political leaders or other highly influential individuals but with individuals, regular citizens, who can take steps to restore a culture of respectfulness.

In this message, Katy teaches from Matthew 6:16–18 on fasting as a way of life, emphasizing that it is not a performance or form of self-denial but a practice of intimacy and dependence on God. Fasting invites believers to create space for God by voluntarily setting aside good things, aligning body and spirit in worship. It trains the heart to hunger for the presence of Jesus more than physical satisfaction and reminds the Church of its identity as His bride awaiting the final feast. Practiced rightly, fasting becomes a rhythm of renewal—an embodied act of love that shapes the soul to find joy, strength, and satisfaction in God alone.

In this three-part series, the Moonshots Podcast takes a deep dive into the work of Jon Kabat-Zinn, the creator of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR). This foundational framework—The 7 Attitudes of Mindfulness—offers practical, timeless guidance for living with greater awareness, clarity, and emotional intelligence.Whether you're seeking more presence in your personal life, resilience in your work, or deeper insight into yourself, this series explores how to build those capacities through the simple, yet powerful principles of mindfulness.Episode 280 – Part 1: Beginner's Mind, Non-Judging, and AcceptanceIn the first episode of the series, Mike and Mark unpack the first three attitudes in Jon Kabat-Zinn's model. These core concepts help shape how we relate to ourselves, others, and the present moment.1. Beginner's Mind (Clip: 2m08)Kabat-Zinn encourages us to approach each moment as if it were new, free from assumptions and past experiences. The idea is to cultivate a fresh, curious perspective—even toward familiar situations. This mindset opens the door to deeper learning, more meaningful relationships, and renewed appreciation for the everyday.Key insight: When we let go of the belief that we already know, we create space for true discovery.2. Non-Judging (Clip: 3m35)Modern life trains us to evaluate everything constantly—our performance, thoughts, feelings, and the world around us. Kabat-Zinn teaches that non-judging is the practice of noticing these thoughts without getting caught up in them. It's not about suppressing judgment but becoming aware of its automatic nature and choosing not to engage with it.Key insight: By observing our thoughts without attaching labels, we create the mental freedom to respond instead of react.3. Acceptance (Clip: 2m46)Acceptance is often misunderstood as passivity. Kabat-Zinn reframes it as an active engagement with reality. Instead of resisting what is happening, we learn to meet it fully. This doesn't mean we approve of everything—it means we begin with clarity and honesty, which is the first step toward meaningful change.Key insight: Acceptance allows us to stop fighting reality and start responding to it with intention.Why These Attitudes MatterBeginner's mind, non-judging, and acceptance form the bedrock of a mindful life. Practiced together, they help reduce stress, increase self-awareness, and improve emotional regulation. These are not abstract ideas—they are habits of attention and perception that anyone can develop.This episode offers real-world reflections and actionable takeaways to begin integrating mindfulness into your daily routine.Coming Soon in the SeriesEpisode 281 (Part 2): Patience, Trust, and Non-StrivingEpisode 282 (Part 3): Letting Go and GratitudeLinksWebsite: https://www.moonshots.ioYouTube: Coming soonBecome a Member: https://www.patreon.com/Moonshots Thanks to our monthly supporters Mike Edwin Deitch Jamie Dorward Emily Rose Banks Malcolm Magee Natalie Ryan N.

If you've ever looked at your kid mid-meltdown and thought, “Why am I reacting like this? I know better”—you're not alone.There's a gap between what we know and how we show up in the heat of parenting. And the bridge across that gap? Practiced, embodied mindfulness—not perfection or more willpower.In this episode, I'm joined by Hunter Clarke-Fields, MSAE, RYT—international bestselling author of Raising Good Humans, creator of the Mindful Parenting course & teacher training, and host of the Mindful Mama podcast. A former “parenting yeller” turned mindfulness teacher with 20+ years of practice, Hunter has been featured on CNBC, NBC, FOX, HuffPost, Tiny Buddha, MOPS, and more. Her mission: help caregivers and kids live more mindfully and compassionately—without shame, rigidity, or 2-hour morning routines.We're diving into: ✔️ Mindfulness 101: what it really is (and how to practice it in 1–5 minutes, not just 20) ✔️ The neuroscience: shrinking amygdala reactivity, strengthening your prefrontal cortex (hello impulse control + clarity) ✔️ How to close the “I know better” → “I do better” gap with tiny, repeatable reps (not more information) ✔️ Practical tools to grow the pause before you snap—so you can respond instead of reactIf you've been trying to “think your way” to calmer parenting while your nervous system is sprinting the other direction, this one's for you.

The essence of spiritual growth is learning to work directly with your inner energy rather than trying to affect it indirectly by controlling outer circumstances. When the outer world does not meet your preferences, your inner energy gets disturbed, and you either try to suppress it (which creates blockages) or reactively express it (which can cause its own problems). Instead, by relaxing in the face of the disturbed energy, welcoming it, and allowing it to rise and purify—the energy can be transmuted into spiritual growth. Practiced steadily in everyday life, this returns you to the seat of the Self, where joy is natural because the energy flow is unblocked. © Sounds True Inc. Episodes: © 2025 Michael A. Singer.

Generational Awareness of Health Younger generations are highly aware of their mental and physical health. They openly communicate about emotions, seek out wellness tools, and tune into their bodies. Older generations, by contrast, often adapt more slowly. Technology and Posture Today's youth are growing up with devices in their hands, and it shows in their posture. Postures previously associated with aging are now common, even in children, driven by extended hours of sitting and screen use. Preventing and Correcting Rounded Posture Megan highlights that a rounded posture is preventable and, to some extent, correctable at any age. Even into the 90s, the body is capable of gaining bone density and muscle strength. Through neuroplasticity, the body can adapt when weak muscles are strengthened and tight tissues are stretched. While skeletal issues may limit the degree of improvement, regular movement and targeted exercises can restore alignment and function. The Toll of Sitting Sitting for eight to ten hours a day quickly reshapes the body. Extended events or workdays often leave people feeling one with the chair, collapsing into poor posture. That reduces energy, focus, and creativity. Megan recommends taking short breaks to stand up, stretch, or strike a power pose to instantly improve attention, boost creative thinking, and sustain productivity. Hot Yoga: Trend or Health Tool? Practiced in rooms heated to about 105°F, hot yoga can help soften tissues and deepen flexibility. However, Megan cautions that most people are dehydrated, and the extreme heat places extra strain on the heart. Without strong body awareness, participants may overstretch tendons and ligaments. For those who are healthy, hydrated, and experienced, hot yoga can be beneficial. For most others, Megan recommends warm yoga as a safer alternative. Power Pauses and Adult Recess Megan has developed the concept of power pauses, short, intentional breaks for breathwork, stretching, or light movement. These re-energize participants during long events, especially after meals. She frames them as “adult recess,” making wellness fun, inclusive, and highly effective for engagement and focus. Wellness at Events Megan integrates yoga, breathwork, and energizing breaks into conferences and events, both in Maui and virtually. She often starts mornings with grounding practices, weaves in power pauses throughout the agenda, and closes with mindful exercises. Her keynote, Habits of a Happy Human: Small Shifts for a Chaotic World, adds another layer of impact, helping participants stay engaged, energized, and connected.

 Exodus 12:43-51Senior Pastor, Clint PressleySunday August 10, 2025

Joseph Smith, by numerous accounts, practiced polygamy. To state that Brigham Young initiated polygamy, lied and made up D&C Section 132, and invited his buddies in on the secret is beyond the pale. Brian Hales joins Greg in this episode to discuss what one must accept if they believe Brigham Young initiated polygamy and without the direction of the Lord. John Taylor, Wilford Woodruff, and Lorenzo Snow, the third, fourth, and fifth presidents of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, all would have had to have been liars. Also, the second, third, and fourth Relief Society Presidents all stated that Joseph Smith practiced polygamy. What are the real ramifications of believing that Brigham Young made up polygamy and that everyone was in on the conspiracy? Website- cwicmedia.com

Still reacting poorly during tough moments? This episode shows how spiritual film review and practice build the emotional and verbal muscle memory you need to improve.Maurice Harker walks you through why you keep failing in the moments that matter—and how to build the habits, structure, and pre-rehearsal needed to finally show up as your best self. From spiritual “film review” with God to real-life emotional drills, you'll learn why practice makes peace, and how true growth never happens by accident.

Do you ever find yourself losing your temper over small things, like shoes left out, bedtime battles, or your child's refusal to shower, and wondering why patience feels so out of reach? Are you constantly torn between wanting to give your kids more freedom and feeling the need to control every little detail? In this episode of the The Living Easy Podcast, Lindsey Maestas shares her own journey of learning how to create autonomy in her children while practicing real, grace-filled patience with them and with herself. Lindsey shares her own struggle with control, the urge to create rules where they may not be necessary, and how a desire for peace in her home led her to pursue emotional regulation, realistic expectations, and a rhythm over-reaction. She unpacks the idea that patience isn't something we simply “have”, it's something we build, moment by moment, with intentional choices and Christ-centered perspective. If you've ever felt guilty for being a reactive parent or overwhelmed by your own high expectations, this episode will meet you with honesty and hope.  Don't forget to SUBSCRIBE for more episodes every week!

Send us a textThis episode dives deep into transforming how we relate to ourselves and others by flipping destructive narratives that keep us trapped in cycles of self-improvement. True self-esteem doesn't come from eliminating uncomfortable feelings but from growing your capacity to be with them while believing you deserve happiness.I share my journey meeting with two touchy experiences in my own relationship dojo: 

DREAM WITH US, and we'll teach you how to interpret them!⁠⁠⁠Today you'll learn about inner guidance--the quiet, built-in compass that surfaces when we pause the outer noise long enough to feel what rings true inside. It is less a mystical oracle than a subtle convergence of bodily signals, emotional undertones, and intuitive "hunches" distilled from our lived experience.When we meet a decision with open attention—neither forcing a rational verdict nor surrendering to raw impulse—this inner faculty sorts, weighs, and hints at the direction that aligns with our deepest values. Acting on it demands two skills: discerning authentic signals from fear or wishful thinking and then trusting ourselves enough to follow through. Practiced regularly, inner guidance becomes a dialogue between conscious intention and the wiser, often quieter currents of the Self.Read along with our dream interpretation HERE.LOOK & GROWAttend Our Free Shadow and Dreams Seminar⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Join THIS JUNGIAN LIFE DREAM SCHOOL⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Do you have a topic you want us to cover?⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠WE NEED YOUR HELP!
