How are you doing? No, really, how are you doing? Guest Chris Newbold is not only the COO of ALPS Insurance – a leader in malpractice insurance for solo and small legal practices – he's also a recognized driver in the nationwide movement to ensure well-being in the legal profession.  Over the past decade, there's been a focus on mental health, stress, and substance abuse in the profession. Meeting deadlines, satisfying clients, and the sometimes-confrontational nature of the job can take a toll, especially on lawyers in small practices or rural area where support can be lacking.  Newbold shares insights from ALPS' recent report, “The State of the Solo: Positive Trends in Solo Attorney Well-Being,” which he helped deliver. The study made a special effort to include small and rural practices. A healthy lawyer is a good lawyer, Newbold says. Taking care of yourself helps you better serve your clients.  Questions or ideas about solo and small practices? Drop us a line at NewSolo@legaltalknetwork.com   Topics: Attorneys in solo or small firms are uniquely susceptible to the effects of stress. It's a hard job. But the right tech, paired with a mindful approach and managed workload, can reduce that stress. Taking care of yourself ultimately benefits your clients. Practicing in a solo or small firm or in rural areas can have its benefits, and surveys show those attorneys are finding job satisfaction and taking time off when needed. But there are also unique stresses and the potential to feel alone or overburdened. Workload and cash flow are among the biggest stressors facing attorneys. Stress can lead to mistakes (and malpractice), so be mindful of where you are and how much you can handle. If you own your own practice, don't let your practice own you.   Resources: “The State of the Solo: Positive Trends in Solo Attorney Well-Being,” ALPS Insurance “The Path to Lawyer Well-Being: Practical Recommendations for Positive Change”  Previous appearance on the Legal Talk Network, The Digital Age podcast, “The Insurance Industry Studies the Future of Law Practice”  Mental Health Resources, American Bar Association Law Student Mental Health Day, Oct. 10, ABA ABA Techshow 2026 Clio Cloud Conference 2025

In this inspiring episode of the Finding Harmony Podcast, hosts Harmony Slater and Russell Case sit down with David Knee, author of The Next Asana. David shares his deeply personal journey of living with multiple sclerosis, navigating forced retirement, and finding new vitality through the practice of Ashtanga Yoga. From his first Groupon yoga class in Victoria to studying with Tim Miller and writing poetry inspired by the moon cycles, David's story is one of resilience, transformation, and hope. Along the way, he reflects on family life, the challenges of step-parenting, and the healing power of consistent, adapted yoga practice. David reminds us that practice doesn't have to be perfect to be effective—it simply has to be yours. His story is not only inspiring for those living with MS, but also for yoga teachers, caregivers, and anyone seeking a path of renewal in difficult times. Topics Covered in This Episode: David's diagnosis with multiple sclerosis and his early symptoms How yoga supported his physical, cognitive, and emotional health The importance of adapting practice for chronic illness The role of breath, pranayama, and meditation in healing Lessons learned from teaching and community service in the MS world Transformation, patience, and the importance of cultivating hope The meaning behind the dragonfly on his book cover David's moon poems and reflections on love, practice, and resilience Resources & Links: David's blog: msasana.ca Poem: Harvest Moon by David Knee Harvest Full Moon it's a ray of light Farmers use it to work late at night It's harvest time, they reap what they sow They work underneath this Moon's bright glow Neil Young does sing that tune It goes like this: On this Harvest Moon I'd love to dance with the one I love This song's perfect under what is above On a warm late summer's eve underneath its glow Wouldn't it be awesome for us all to know To dance, to love, is all we really need This romantic mindset I think you believe I've gone on a tangent I love that song It embodies to me of a love so long Feel it, be it, take that big chance Just let it in, you bet it's romance I'll get back on track as I'm sure you know A breather's required it's not just for show Love is a song that we all know best Sing it out loud, then enjoy a good rest Links to Amazon - David's Book: https://www.amazon.com/Next-Asana-Ashtanga-Multiple-Sclerosis/dp/1779629974 https://www.amazon.ca/Next-Asana-Ashtanga-Multiple-Sclerosis/dp/1779629974 Check out Harmony's upcoming events: https://harmonyslater.com/events FREE Manifestation Activation: https://harmonyslater.kit.com/manifestation-activation FIND Harmony: https://harmonyslater.com/

A Critique of Practicing the Way, Part 24 - A Grand Setup for Deception, presented by Bob DeWaay and Barb Gretch. Comer makes no distinction between those who are born again and religious people in general. He claims that he finds his consciousness going home to God, but home for the unconverted is alienation from God. This is a grand setup for deception. (duration 00:23:12) Click here to play

On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, I dive into the idea of how without awareness or tools, we can end up turning our feelings into felonies.Maybe not literally - but if we're not careful, the ways in which we react, lash out, or stew in negativity – can still be harmful.I share about the importance of emotional regulation and how so many of us were never really taught as kids what the heck to do with our big feelings.I talk about how easy it is to look at extreme acts of violence in the world and think, “That's not me,” but the truth is, we all have moments where our emotions get the best of us.Whether it's snapping at someone, holding onto grudges, losing your shit in traffic, or letting our thoughts spiral, it's all part of the same cycle.The thing us, for most people growing up, nobody sat us down to teach us how to feel our feelings, or how to navigate those suckers in a healthy way.Throughout the episode, I also share some of my favorite tools and strategies for getting a handle on those big emotions.Things like slowing down, practicing self-awareness, and using healthy coping mechanisms like walking, breathing exercises, or even just getting outside in nature to shift your perspective.I also talk about the power of community, whether it's joining a group like The Nest or just finding people who support and uplift you.My hope is that by sharing these stories and tools, you'll feel a little less alone, and a little more empowered to pause, check in with yourself, and choose love over fear.We can't always control what happens around us, but we can choose how we respond.So let's practice being kinder to ourselves and each other, and remember: the real gig is to spread love - and not let our feelings run the show. ❤️ KK'S KEY TAKEAWAYS:•​ Slowing down is the first key step to becoming more self-aware and emotionally regulated.•​ Emotional regulation means learning to manage your feelings and responses in healthy ways.•​ Unchecked emotions can lead to negative thoughts, actions, and even harm to yourself or others.•​ Healthy coping mechanisms like walking, breathing exercises, and spending time in nature can help shift your emotional state.•​ Self-awareness grows when you pause, reflect, and notice your patterns and triggers.•​ It's important to question your thoughts and not believe every story your mind tells you.•​ Community support, whether through groups or trusted people, can make a big difference in emotional well-being.•​ Practicing kindness, compassion, and love - toward yourself and others - can help break negative emotional cycles.•​ You have the power to interrupt harmful patterns and consciously choose more helpful responses.•​ The real goal is to spread more love and to leave the world better than you found it.

Episode Summary:Join host Lisa Lorenzo and her co-contributor in this enriching episode of Faith with Friends as they dive into the powerful teachings of John 15:4-5. The episode emphasizes the importance of staying spiritually connected and explores how abiding in Jesus can transform lives. By comparing spiritual nourishment to charging a phone, the episode paints a vivid picture of the need for a constant, vibrant connection with faith to lead a fulfilling life.In this episode, the conversation highlights how engaging with God's Word can lead to tangible benefits such as better sleep, reduced anxiety, and healthier relationships. The teaching of Jesus as the vine and individuals as the branches serves as a central theme, illustrating how our spiritual strength and potential for bearing fruit depend on our connection to Him. The dialogue encourages listeners to integrate spiritual practices into daily routines actively, ensuring they remain plugged into their faith to experience genuine peace and purpose.Key Takeaways:Abiding in Jesus is crucial for spiritual vitality, just as charging a phone is vital for its functionality.Daily engagement with scripture and prayer is essential, acting as a lifeline rather than a mere task.True connection with Jesus naturally results in love, peace, patience, and joy, reflecting spiritual health.Spiritual independence, unlike worldly independence, is achieved through dependence on Jesus.Practicing stillness, meditation, and faith can help deepen one's connection to the spiritual source.Notable Quotes:"Imagine trying to live your life on 1% battery...that's exactly what life feels like when we try to live apart from Jesus.""Abide in me, and I in you...without me, you can do nothing.""Our culture tells us that independence is strength, but Jesus says dependence is life.""Fruit flows naturally when we stay connected with Jesus."Resources:Follow Faith with Friends on Instagram: @faithwithfriendsWe invite you to listen to the full episode to explore these themes in depth, and stay tuned for more insightful discussions in future episodes of Faith with Friends.

In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Nancy Fox discuss:The importance of mindset shifts in professional growthStrategic approaches to networking and business developmentNavigating uncertainty and change in the legal industryThe role of consistency, agility, and technology in building relationships Key Takeaways:Lawyers often fail at networking because they choose events or groups without a strategy; instead, they should target where actual decision-makers gather, even if it requires greater investment.Relying solely on referrals is risky; building a balanced portfolio of referral sources and direct decision-maker relationships creates stability and growth.Practicing “daily consistent activity” in 15-minute chunks—such as emailing contacts or engaging on LinkedIn—can meaningfully grow a practice without overwhelming time demands.Shifting focus away from oneself and toward listening to others during networking conversations reduces fear, builds confidence, and creates deeper connections."Agility is not necessarily what lawyers are trained in, but being agile and being flexible is something that I think all of us really need to look at." —  Nancy Fox Check out my new show, Be That Lawyer Coaches Corner, and get the strategies I use with my clients to win more business and love your career again. Ready to go from good to GOAT in your legal marketing game?

Practicing gratitude– which is being grateful for the good in our lives– is a fantastic way to feel happy. When we practice gratitude, we can focus on the good things instead of the bad things. Even when something doesn't go our way, we can try to find something positive about the situation. We can also remember to thank the people who bring us goodness– it's a great way to show our appreciation. It's a skill that must be developed, so let's make sure to work on it everyday!

Week 4 of our Practicing the Way series Pastor Emily has us look at the Practices; everyday rythmns that form us into the way of Jesus.

Summary In this episode of the Ali Damron Show, Ali discusses the pervasive issue of anxiety, sharing her personal experiences and insights gained from working with patients over the years. She emphasizes that anxiety is not a character flaw but a learned brain pattern that can be unlearned through understanding and practical strategies. The conversation covers the science behind anxiety, the importance of emotional expression, and actionable steps to engage with life despite anxiety. Ali encourages listeners to practice self-compassion and to view anxiety as a protective mechanism rather than a debilitating condition. Takeaways Anxiety manifests differently for everyone, both physically and mentally. Understanding anxiety as a learned behavior can empower individuals to change their responses. Neuroplasticity allows us to unlearn anxiety and create new brain pathways. Labeling anxiety as a false alarm can help diffuse its power. Allowing feelings of anxiety without resistance is crucial for healing. Engaging in life despite anxiety is essential for personal growth. Emotional expression is key to processing underlying feelings that contribute to anxiety. Self-compassion is vital in the journey of overcoming anxiety. Avoidant behaviors reinforce anxiety; facing fears is necessary for progress. Practicing small steps towards facing anxiety can lead to significant changes. Sound bites "Anxiety is not a character flaw." "Label it as a false alarm." "Self-compassion is key."

As September closes, forget lukewarm goals because this conversation is about striking the match yourself. Kelly of Western Workouts joins us for a conversation about the kind of fire fueled by self-belief, reckless confidence, and a refusal to waste energy on what doesn't matter.This episode began, as many of our best ones do, with a yap-and-cheer session that turned into a bonfire of ideas. We talk about why spite may get you moving, but it never leaves you satisfied, and why a process you love always beats an outcome that looks shiny but feels empty.Kelly brings her perspective from training horses, bodies, and minds. We add our lens of capacity, discernment, and real-life integration. Together we unravel what it means to build a fire of our own; whether that means claiming your time back from distractions, letting go without fanfare, or saying yes to hard things without fearing how hard they'll be.Listen In For …Why a self-belief bonfire outlasts a spite-fueled spark every time.The practice of reckless confidence: deciding you'll figure it out, then getting to work.How to be unbothered by noise, urgency, and opinions that don't serve you.The case for integration over silos when it comes to motherhood, work, and identity.When to simply step back into the bushes: no drama, no debate, just disengagement.Why discipline is less about willpower and more about respecting your own energy.How patience and slow-burn often set the stage for your boldest moves.The role your people play in elevating your fire instead of draining it.TL;DR (Minute by Minute)00:00 September check-in and the fire worth tending.06:15 Spite vs. self-belief: why empty wins don't satisfy.10:00 Process over outcome: act, adjust, repeat.25:30 Practicing being unbothered: disengaging with grace.30:00 Integration > silos: motherhood, work, identity.36:20 Reckless confidence and pouring the gasoline at your feet.42:45 Circles, standards, and raising your own algorithm.48:00 Closing: presence through the holidays, confidence that sustains.Where to Go From HereJoin the conversation: Screenshot this episode and tag @cowgirlsovercoffee and @westernworkouts on Instagram/Threads—tell us where you're pouring your gasoline this season.Grab the free Routine Playbook: Build daily structure that makes acting (and adjusting) easier.Connect with Kelly: Follow Western Workouts for strength, stamina, and no-nonsense confidence.Stay in the loop: Subscribe, review, and share so more women can light fires that actually last.

Send one way text to Rev Rachel In this episode of Recover Your Soul, I open up about the real and sometimes painful work of loving ourselves fully—both the light and the shadow. We live in a world that says “be authentic,” while at the same time pushing perfection through filters, quick fixes, and unrealistic expectations. It's no wonder we feel torn between who we really are and who we think we're supposed to be.Through the lens of Soul Recovery, we explore what happens when we stop criticizing ourselves with words we'd never say to a friend, and instead begin practicing self-compassion in real life. Together, we'll look at the deeper patterns and beliefs that keep us stuck in not-enoughness, and how those wounds can finally be revealed and healed.Your soul already knows the truth—you are whole, holy, and perfectly enough as you are. When we choose love over fear and release the need to live up to others' expectations, we remember our sovereignty and step into our unlimited nature.Join me in this conversation about authenticity, aging, self-compassion, and the courage to honor yourself for exactly who you are. You are remembering your wholeness, and in that remembering, you are free.This podcast is for educational purposes only and is not allied or representative of any organizations or religions, but is based on the opinions and experience of Rev.

Andrew taught from James 5:13–20 that confession is not about shame but about freedom and restoration. Sin disrupts the wholeness God intends, leaving people hiding in isolation, yet God always moves toward us in love, covering our sin through the cross of Christ. Confession brings this reality into the open, allowing us to walk in the light and experience healing. Throughout history, revival movements have been marked by honest confession and deep prayer, creating communities where people are fully known and fully loved. Practicing confession in everyday life—whether with a spouse, in recovery groups, or small discipleship circles—breaks secrecy, nurtures holiness, and restores joy. Believers are called to reject shame, step out of hiding, and embrace confession as a way of life, so that God's people can live in freedom and become a credible, prepared witness for renewal.

A Critique of Practicing the Way, Part 23 - Reality is not a State of Mind, presented by Bob DeWaay and Barb Gretch. We discuss the idea that reality is a state of mind and that we become what we contemplate. Believing deception does not make it reality. We need to renew our minds through God's Word and the means of grace to think in reality rather than deception. (duration 00:18:29) Click here to play

Practicing well is hard to do every day just because of the mental focus and discipline it requires.  How much more difficult is it when you add a physical challenge like chronic pain or other illness?  Jastin Artis was diagnosed with fibromyalgia in 2019, and had to learn how to function before he could eventually thrive.  He shares here his tactics and mindset for moving forward despite not having a body that wants to cooperate.

Practicing the WaySpiritual disciplines done for the wrong reasons willactually work against your spiritual formation, not for it.

You were not created to do life alone. In this week's message from our Practicing the Way series, Dr. Trent Langhofer teaches from Mark 2 about the paralyzed man carried to Jesus by his friends. This story shows us the power of community to carry us when we are weak, anchor us when we want to give up, strengthen our faith, and celebrate when God brings breakthrough.Through Scripture and real-life examples, Pastor Trent reminds us that lasting change begins with inner transformation and that God designed His church to walk together in faith.

Weekly Messages from Courageous Church in Salt Lake City, Utah

Generosity is a miracle. It's not something we do for God—it's something God does in us. Today, John Rinehart (Founder & CEO, Gospel Patrons) unpacks 2 Corinthians 8:1–9, showing how generosity flows from God's grace. From the radical example of the Macedonian church to Paul's charge to “excel in this act of grace”, and finally to Jesus' own generosity—“though he was rich… he became poor”—this message invites us to give ourselves first to the Lord and join His Kingdom work with joy.

Dr. James Spencer talks with Jonathan P. Walton—author of Beauty and Resistance and 12 Lies That Hold America Captive—about moving beyond “thinking Christian” to living as a Christian. Jonathan shares how grief, burnout, and hard family seasons pushed him from activism-on-adrenaline to formation and faithfulness: Sabbath as the minimum, annual “Dope Day” planning with his wife, building guardrails for generosity and time, embracing insignificance over platform, and choosing obedience even when it means visible losses. We unpack a practical pathway from pity → sympathy → empathy → compassion → incarnation, learning to mourn with others (and even empathize with “enemies”), plus simple, local practices that build communal good. A grounded, hopeful invitation to become the kind of person who can do the kinds of things Jesus commands. Buy the book: Beauty and Resistance at ivpress.com (use code IVPPOD20 for a 20% discount)

Compassion was fundamental to Jesus' ministry and the primary lens through which he engaged his community. At The Loft, we strive to follow Jesus' spiritual path of radical compassion and view compassion as one of our guiding values. We invite you to join us this Sunday as we explore why compassion is fundamental to our spiritual practices and essential for both inspiring and guiding our actions. www.TheLoftLA.org

This summer, we've answered the most common questions that we receive as relationship and sex therapists. And this week, we answer one of the most common questions: Does body count actually count?   We live in a culture that views your sexuality based on how often you access it. Men who are deemed to have accessed sexuality a lot are viewed as "studs". Women are simultaneously valued and devalued based on how often they have sex. In Evangelical systems, folks who have sex before they get married are sinners.   There are tons of psychological and relational problems that develop from this question, even as many of us are unlearning the myth that our value is tied to how sexual we are or are not. We talk with Natasha Helfer (@natashahelfermft on Instagram), certified sex therapist and one of the premier relationship therapists for post-Mormon folks, about how we can ask better questions. Check out our conversations about: Redefining sex and sexuality Practicing equity in our relationships and sexuality How high control religion establishes negative expectations for relationships How relationships can be a primary space for deconstruction What you can expect from a quality relationship therapist.

On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, we're talking about hope.What it really means, why it sometimes gets a bad rap, and how we can look at it through a bunch of different lenses. I share why hope isn't just some fluffy, pie-in-the-sky idea - but actually a powerful mindset and a skill that we can practice every day, especially when the world feels crazy, overwhelming or out of control. We talk about how hope is more than just a feeling… it's also a way of thinking, a call to action, and a belief in the possibility of a better future! I get into the idea of “learned hopefulness,” and how it's wicked interesting that hope actually needs a little uncertainty or negativity to get activated. Plus, I share stories from Greek mythology, psychology, and even a little Mister Rogers - to show how hope can be a guiding light, even when things look and feel tough. One of my big takeaways is that hope isn't passive.It's not about just wishing things would get better, it's about believing we can make a positive difference and then getting our ass in gear and actually doing something about it. I talk about the importance of shifting our perspective, training our minds to look for the good, the beautiful, and the holy…And how our individual actions can ripple out to create bigger change in our families, communities, and the world. If you're feeling a little low on hope, I invite you to join me in practicing it!Visualize the future you want, “walk as if” your dreams are already happening, and remember that hope can be an act of resistance and a source of strength. And if you want to go deeper or get support, come check out my “Nest” community -or- my one-to-one mentoring. Wherever you are, may you leave the world a little better than you found it, and may your hope be a blessing to yourself and others! ❤️ KK'S KEY TAKEAWAYS:​• Hope is more than a feeling; it is a mindset, a call to action, a practice, and a belief in the possibility of positive change.​• Practicing hope requires us to shift our perspective and train our minds to look for the good, the beautiful, and the holy.​• Hope is not passive; it inspires us to take action and create the future we want to see.​• “Learned Hopefulness” means cultivating the belief that we can positively influence our own lives and the world.​• Visualizing and embodying your desired future can more likely help to make hope a lived reality.​• Individual change and inner peace are the starting points for creating broader change in families, communities, and society.​• Hope can be an act of resistance and a source of strength during difficult times.​• Joining a supportive community can help you practice and sustain hope in your daily life.

In this compelling episode, host Duane Osterlind sits down with Mo Edjlali, founder of The Mindful Leader and author of the groundbreaking book "Open MBSR: Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction - Reimagining the Future of Mindfulness." Mo sounds an important alarm about a rarely discussed topic in the wellness world: how guided meditations, when overused or misapplied, can actually cause harm.This conversation dives deep into Mo's personal transformation from a high-pressure tech entrepreneur to a mindfulness advocate, and his critical examination of the modern mindfulness movement.

This is a nuanced conversation that challenges listeners to think critically about mindfulness while honoring its profound potential for healing and growth.Key TakeawaysMindfulness requires balance: The nine attitudes of mindfulness can become harmful when taken to extremes without dialectical thinkingCommunity is essential: Practicing mindfulness in isolation misses the powerful healing potential of collective practiceTransparency matters: The field needs honest conversations about Buddhist influences and commercial interestsCritical thinking strengthens practice: Questioning and debate enhance rather than diminish the mindfulness movementSmall steps create change: Even in dark moments, simple actions like making your bed can be the foundation for healingAbout Mo EdjlaliMo Edjlali is the founder of The Mindful Leader and author of "Open MBSR: Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction - Reimagining the Future of Mindfulness."
