The Mindful Healers Podcast with Dr. Jessie Mahoney and Dr. Ni-Cheng Liang
What if there isn't one right way to do things, but many? Letting go of being right can open the door to creativity, flexibility, and even liberation. This episode offers a mindful and compassionate reframe: seeing our approaches as preferences—shaped by our experiences, values, and identities. Pearls of Wisdom: • Softening into the idea of preferences fosters collaboration, both in medicine and at home. • Mindfulness helps us notice when judgment or irritation is a sign of unmet preferences. • Letting go of the need to be 'right' invites deeper trust, compassion, and innovation. • Seeing differences as diversity—not wrongness—can transform teams, relationships, and institutions. Reflection Questions: • Where in your life are you attached to doing things the "right way"? • How might it feel to see your way as simply your preference? • Whose preferences might you be overlooking at work or at home? • What would it look like to honor your own preferences without needing agreement? • How might this create more peace and possibility in your relationships? If you'd like support shifting from perfectionism to preference, or from rigidity to freedom, we would love to work with you. Jessie offers 1:1 mindful coaching and retreat experiences that integrate exactly these insights—visit www.jessiemahoneymd.com/coaching and www.jessiemahoneymd.com/retreats to explore upcoming options. End-of-year CME can be available with virtual coaching. We also speak and teach on these topics to healthcare teams, medical institutions, and professional conferences.

Key Takeaways:Market Sentiment & Outlook:Commercial real estate is facing uncertainty into 2026, primarily due to macroeconomic volatility, interest rates, and capital availability.While capital was readily available previously, concern about raising funds or qualifying for loans is now considered the top risk by industry leaders.Most investors still expect to increase real estate holdings to hedge against inflation and diversify portfolios.Sector Performance & Trends:Some sectors like digital economy properties (i.e., data centers), logistics, warehousing, and industrial are performing well and attracting attention.Office investments are regaining traction, contrary to recent trends suggesting office decline.The hotel sector has struggled, with deal value down significantly year-over-year.Retail, especially malls, continues to be challenged, with shifting consumer behavior and design shortcomings cited as reasons.Development Climate:Rising construction costs, interest rates, and property taxes are obstacles for developers.Flex space development continues where supply is low.Affordable, "missing middle" housing and zoning reform are needed to address shortages and promote multi-use developments.Investment Strategy:Investors are more cautious, screening deals more carefully and not as aggressive as previous years.Preference for acquiring properties to hedge against inflation and for portfolio diversification.U.S. remains a preferred market, but interest in other countries (India, Germany, UK, Singapore) is rising, especially among larger firms.Audience/Participant Concerns:Questions targeted real estate taxes, staffing, capital raising, and partnership selection.Equity/capital raising remains a perennial challenge, given market dynamics and investor situations.Mixed-Use Development Advocacy:Strong views were expressed favoring conversion of single-use malls into mixed-use, live-work-play communities to revitalize retail real estate.

Why do children sometimes show a clear preference for one parent over the other? In this episode, Jess and Scott explore the psychology and science of parental preference. Drawing on attachment theory, developmental research, and family dynamics studies, we break down why children choose favourites, what influences these patterns, and how parents can respond in ways that strengthen connection, reduce conflict, and support healthy development.Get 10% OFF parenting courses and kids' printable activities at Nurtured First using the code ROBOTUNICORN.We'd love to hear from you!

Should the federal government be in charge of what kids learn in school? A new poll shows that most Americans say no, only about 11% think Washington should control K–12 standards, testing, or school choice, favoring local and state leadership instead. The findings reflect a strong push for community-based decision-making in education. (Source: Dailyfly News)

Why do boys like to play with cars and trucks? In 2002, a study at Texas A&M University was designed to explore this question. Researchers took male and female monkeys, and gave them equal access to both traditional boy and girl toys. Interestingly, the male monkeys naturally gravitated towards the traditional male toys, like cars, while the females did likewise with the girl toys, like dolls. As much as our society would like to claim that there are no true differences between genders– boys are different from girls! Encourage your son to play with the “boy toys” he wants to– or, better yet, grab a race car and play along with him. You will see God's perfect design playing out right in front of you. To learn about the 5 critical needs of boys, visit Trail Life USA or RaisingGodlyBoys.com.
Spiritual freedom is not freedom for yourself, but freedom from yourself. As you gradually cease to strive to get what you want and avoid what you don't want, life transforms into a harmonious unfolding of the Tao, where peace and joy arise naturally from being in alignment with reality. As you cease to be bound by the personal, —you come to realize the true beauty of who you really are. © Sounds True Inc. Episodes: © 2025 Michael A. Singer. All Rights Reserved.
It's safe to say most of us love comfort. We like things set just right, from the AC to the music to how church feels. But what happens when God asks you to step out of what's comfortable? In this episode, the fellas talk about the difference between purpose and preference and how following Jesus often means saying yes when every part of you wants to say no. From baked potatoes and pumpkin bread to prayer meetings, Serve Days, and Peter's boat, this conversation will make you laugh, think, and maybe even squirm a little. Choosing purpose will always stretch you, but it is in those moments of humble obedience that God moves the most. Did you accept Christ today?

In 2011, Coca-Cola introduced a white version of their Coca-Cola can. The drink inside was identical to original Coca-Cola, but customers drinking from this white can hated the taste. The white can made buyers think the Cola tasted worse. To explain why, I need to delve into the science of sensehacking. With Professor Adrian North, I'll explain why tennis players grunt loudly, why cars smell different when new, how a tablecloth alters our taste, and that music changes what you buy. --- Join the Nudge Vaults waiting list: https://www.nudgepodcast.com/vaults Join the Nudge Unit waiting list: https://maven.com/nudge-unit/course-cohort Sign up for my newsletter: https://www.nudgepodcast.com/mailing-list Connect on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/phill-agnew-22213187/ Watch Nudge on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@nudgepodcast/ --- Today's sources Bschaden, A., Dörsam, A., Cvetko, K., & Stroebele-Benschop, N.

Tři týdny před sněmovními volbami si opoziční hnutí ANO stále drží výrazný náskok před vládní koalicí Spolu. Ta varuje před možnou vládou ANO s SPD a komunisty ze Stačilo!. Spolupráci s Andrejem Babišem Spolu ale rozhodně odmítá. „S ohledem na to, jak vyostřená je rétorika hnutí ANO vůči krokům, které vláda dělá a které udělala i v těžkých časech, a hlavně to, co přinesly v programu, což je fakt chiméra, že by bilion korun byli schopni získat z šedé ekonomiky, tak za sebe říkám, že představit si to nedovedu. A hnutí ANO říká totéž,“ prohlásil místopředseda ODS a ministr dopravy Martin Kupka v předvolebním speciálu Ptám se já z Next Zone na pražském Smíchově. Preference hnutí ANO se necelé tři týdny do sněmovních voleb 3. a 4. října drží nad 30 procenty hlasů. Vládní koalice Spolu složená z ODS, TOP 09 a KDU-ČSL kolem 20 procent. Její zástupci nicméně stále věří, že můžou získat další voliče. „Teď jsme ve finiši kampaně a usilujeme o to, abychom získali nerozhodnuté voliče, i ty, které jsme třeba nenadchli nebo zklamali,“ řekl Kupka. „A jde nám o to, aby naše země zůstala opravdu pevná v dalším směřování v rámci NATO a v rámci Evropské unie jako aktivní člen, který bude víc říkat, co chce a kde jsou jeho národní zájmy.“„Snažíme se ukazovat nejen to, co se povedlo nám jako vládě, ale co se povedlo podnikatelům, společnosti, jak se společnost zachovala jako celek v okamžiku, kdy Putin zaútočil na Ukrajinu. To jsou hrozně důležité body, které drží společnost,“ dodal ministr.Zároveň připustil, že vládě se některé věci skutečně nepovedly, ať už šlo třeba o nedodržení slibu, že nezvýší daně nebo že zajistí vyšší platy učitelů. Co bude se Spolu a pozicí jejího lídra, šéfa ODS a současného premiéra Petra Fialy, pokud koalice volby prohraje, nechtěl Martin Kupka předjímat. „O tom teď vůbec nebudu spekulovat, protože by to okamžitě vyvolávalo vlnu otázek, jak to vlastně ten Kupka myslí a co tam řekl. Ne, já stojím pevně za Petrem Fialou,“ reagoval místopředseda ODS na dotaz, zda by byl případně připraven kandidovat do čela strany. Nepřehání to Spolu se strašením před Andrejem Babišem? A proč nedokázala lidem lépe vysvětlit svoji politiku? --Podcast Ptám se já.

Have you ever used your giving to steer decisions or send a message?It might seem harmless—or even wise—to designate your gift to specific ministries or withhold it when you disagree with leadership. But when our generosity becomes a tool for control, we've crossed a line. In this episode, we'll explore the subtle danger of using giving as leverage—and discover a better way rooted in surrender and trust.A Hidden Temptation in Church GivingLet's be honest—no one likes the word control when it's pointed at them. But in church life, this temptation surfaces more often than we'd like to admit.It might look like this:Giving only to certain ministries because you don't trust how the church allocates general funds.Withholding your giving when a leadership decision—like a staffing change or budget shift—doesn't sit well with you.Designating gifts to specific areas, not out of passion, but as a form of protest.On the surface, it may look like good financial stewardship. But beneath the surface, it's often an attempt to say, “I want things to go my way, and I'll use my money to make that happen.”That's not generosity. That's leverage. And Scripture warns us against it.The Corban Example: A Heart Check from JesusIn Mark 7, Jesus confronts the Pharisees for misusing a practice called Corban—a method of dedicating money or resources to God. While it sounded spiritual, the religious leaders were using it to dodge their responsibility to care for aging parents.As GotQuestions.org explains:“The Pharisees took a legitimate Corban offering and used it in an illegitimate and devious way to defraud their parents…Jesus tells the Pharisees that their misuse of Corban was an evil rationale to avoid doing what they should.”It wasn't the gift itself that Jesus condemned—it was the motive behind it.In the same way, when we give to maintain control or push our preferences, we're following the spirit of Corban. Even if our reasons sound righteous, they can mask a deeper issue: an unwillingness to surrender.From Leverage to Surrender: The Biblical CallThe Bible offers a better vision.Psalm 24:1 reminds us,“The earth is the Lord's, and everything in it.”That includes our finances. We don't give to direct the church. We give because God owns it all—and calls us to steward it faithfully.Consider the example in Acts 4. Believers sold land and possessions, then laid the proceeds at the apostles' feet. No strings attached. No demands were made about how it was to be used. Just trust, unity, and wholehearted surrender.Of course, that doesn't mean churches shouldn't be transparent or held accountable. Scripture calls leaders to wise and faithful stewardship. But giving with strings isn't about accountability—it's about control. And control is the opposite of trust.What's Driving Your Generosity?Ask yourself: What's driving my giving?Is it love for God?Faith in His provision?Worship and gratitude?Or is it something else?Preference?Power?Payback?When giving becomes conditional, it's no longer cheerful—it's contractual. We treat God's work like a business deal instead of a spiritual act of worship.But when we let go of control, something beautiful happens: we find peace. We no longer feel the pressure to manage every church decision. We can give freely, knowing God is at work—even when His ways don't align with our expectations.Moving Forward in Trust and GraceIf you realize that control has been influencing your giving, here are three steps to take:1. Confess it to the Lord. God is gracious and patient. Ask Him to realign your heart with His and help you give from a place of surrender.2. Release your preferences. You don't have to stop asking questions or seeking transparency. But your generosity shouldn't be tied to your personal comfort or preferences.3. Give with trust. Trust God's ability to work through imperfect people. Trust that when you give with the right heart, your gift brings Him glory.Because when we give to control, we place ourselves at the center. But when we give in faith, we put God at the center—where He belongs.A Resource for the JourneyWant to go deeper into the heart behind generosity?

He and his wife are behind on their bills, but we know they also spend on partying and things like marijuana. My husband feels emotionally pulled in, especially when his son talks about possibly losing their home. We want to be generous, but we don't want to enable irresponsible behavior. How can we approach this situation in a way that's wise and biblical?I'd like to assign someone as my power of attorney, but I don't have any family members I trust to take on that role. What options do I have in this situation?Is it wise to purchase life insurance for your children or grandchildren? What are the pros and cons?I'm thinking about getting a reverse mortgage to create some extra income. Can you explain how they work, and whether they're a good idea?

As new leaders step into new roles, many of them fail to help their subordinates understand the best way to communicate with them. Rather, they let vague assertions, false assumptions and ongoing trial-and-error observations shape the way they get and give information. In this episode, I provide a simple two-step process to gain clarity about […] The post Ep. 375 – Defining your communication preference (no more guessing) appeared first on Just Saying.
In this episode, Leila (@LeilaHormozi) breaks down one of the most transformative mindset shifts in her personal and professional life: understanding the difference between needs and preferences. Mislabeling a strong desire as a “need” can trap you in emotional drama, drain your relationships, and sabotage your leadership. With personal examples from business, marriage, and recovery from major surgery, Leila shows how language isn't just communication, it's control.Want to scale your business?
