This meditation scans through the body – arriving in the foreground with sounds, feelings and sensations, like the surface waves of the sea coming and going. And in the background, experiencing an alert inner stillness – a vast presence from which all activity pours forth.

 Eckhart talks with a live audience about freeing oneself from the mind to find presence. He says, we must become aware of the harmful thoughts that hold us hostage. Life's crises need not drag us into unconsciousness. We can stay alert, and let the rough times take us to a deeper state of awareness. Eckhart says while the path to presence is narrow, it ultimately leads to life. 

When he was just six years old, he moved into what looked like a dream home—a massive, echoing mansion built in the early 1900s. But almost immediately, it became a nightmare. From footsteps in long, empty hallways to dishes moving on their own, something dark had made itself known. But nothing could prepare him for the night he woke up paralyzed, face down, unable to scream as a crushing force held him in place.

Worship Leader Taylor Cummings examines the account of Samuel responding to God's call, emphasizing the power of being fully present and the beauty of inviting the Lord to speak beyond a simple name.

Maybe today you feel alone. Perhaps due to your mistakes and failures you have isolated yourself from others. Maybe you are struggling and you wonder where God is. Possibly, you feel as if you are on the far side of the wilderness. Stand on this truth from God's Word: He will never leave you or forsake you.Main Points:1. This morning as I was reading my Bible, I found myself in Exodus chapter three. It's the story where Moses meets God at the burning bush. Six words leaped off the page as I read the familiar story. It says Moses was on “the far side of the wilderness.” Moses wasn't just in the wilderness, he was on the far side of the wilderness. What is the wilderness? The dictionary defines it as “an uncultivated, uninhabited, and inhospitable region.” In other words, Moses was as isolated as a person could get.2. Yet, on the far side of the wilderness, with not another person in sight, Moses was not alone. It's here Moses has a life-changing encounter with God. He is reminded he is not alone, he is not forgotten, and God's purpose for his life has not changed.3. Moses never forgot about the day he encountered God at the burning bush. It was a revelation of God's continued purpose and plan for his life, but the greater lesson for Moses was the necessity of God's presence. Today's Scripture Verses:Exodus 3:1 - "Now Moses was tending the flock of Jethro his father-in-law, the priest of Midian, and he led the flock to the far side of the wilderness..."Psalm 139:7-10 - “Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence? If I go up to the heavens, you are there; if I make my bed in the depths, you are there. If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the far side of the sea, even there your hand will guide me, your right hand will hold me fast.”Exodus 33:15-16 - “Then Moses said to him, “If your Presence does not go with us, do not send us up from here. How will anyone know that you are pleased with me and with your people unless you go with us? What else will distinguish me and your people from all the other people on the face of the earth?”Quick Links:Donate to support this podcastLeave a review on Apple PodcastsGet a copy of The 5 Minute Discipleship JournalConnect on SocialJoin The 5 Minute Discipleship Facebook Group

In a world saturated with distraction and the persistent pull of technology, how do we remember what truly matters? In this episode, Soren Gordhamer, founder of Wisdom 2.0 and passionate explorer of mindfulness in modern life, joins Jerry for a frank and heartfelt conversation about his new book, The Essential: Discovering What Really Matters in an Age of Distraction. Together, they explore the ongoing tension between ancient wisdom and contemporary life—discussing how our stories, our technology, and our hunger for achievement can draw us away from our deepest values and authentic selves. The pair asks what it means to live an “aligned life” amid increasingly sophisticated digital enticements, and discuss the courage required to re-member what's been lost or exiled within us, and the humility needed to question how we are complicit in shaping the world as it is.

We're all talking about artificial intelligence in Multifamily. Efficiency. Automation. Cost savings. But what if we're missing the real story?In this episode of the Multifamily Collective, I explore how AI isn't just a tech tool—it's a gateway. A path to deeper connection, real presence, and actual human engagement in our communities.Forget about screens and distractions. Picture an office where the noise is gone. Where you don't just fix problems—you feel people. You connect. You listen. That's the future AI is building.Yes, AI will streamline operations. Yes, it will enhance PropTech infrastructure. But the true value? Giving your team the time and mental space to show up fully—with empathy, focus, and authenticity.People will pay double—double—for that kind of presence.So the question isn't, “How efficient can AI make us?”It's, “What kind of human experience can it unlock?”Let's rethink the real power of artificial intelligence in Multifamily.If this episode struck a chord, like and subscribe to stay connected to the conversation.

The Presence Driven Life - Part 26 The Delivering Power of God's Presence - Part 8 July 9th 2025 - Wednesday Evening

The Robyn Engelson Podcast Ever wish you had a life mentor with over decades of experience whispering million dollar tips in your ear? That's exactly what you will get each week when you tune into The Robyn Engelson Podcast. I'm your host, a sought after burnout recovery coach for high-achieving women and help you heal from burnout and survival mode, so you can reclaim your energy, joy, and rediscover your voice. Each week, I bring you inspiring guests, insights, and tools to empower you to be energized, compress time, and start living instead of existing.   Episode Title:  What Does True Freedom Look Like in a Busy World? Host: Robyn Engelson Guest: Michael Gardon Episode Summary:  In this episode, we sit down with Michael Gardon, a creative strategist, leadership coach, and champion of Time Sovereignty. Michael's story isn't about hustle. It's about waking up, reclaiming your time, and building a life around what truly matters. After years of following the “default path” chasing achievement, checking boxes, and staying busy, Michael realized success without intention is just noise. So, he broke away. Now, he helps others do the same. This conversation is for anyone who feels like they're constantly running, but getting nowhere. Michael invites us to slow down, think deeper, and make powerful, present choices. Because freedom isn't found in doing more. It's found in doing what matters.    You'll learn: Why Michael says being “busy” is the new burnout What it means to stop renting your time and start owning it How to identify the busywork that's draining your energy What Time Sovereignty looks like and how to practice it Why saying “no” can be the most productive thing you do How sharing your story can shift lives, including your own   Memorable Quotes: “Busy is not a badge. It's a boundary issue.” – Michael “The cost of default living is your actual life.” – Michael “You can't own your time until you own your truth.” – Robyn   Actionable Steps for Listeners: Audit Your Time:   Track your time for one day. Where is it going? What could shift? Practice a 10-Minute Rule:   Set a timer. Spend 10 minutes each morning doing only what feels aligned. Say “No” (Just Once):   One small "no" to something draining = one big "yes" to something meaningful. Tell Your Story:   Your journey might be the permission someone else needs. Share it.   Final Thought: You don't need to fill every hour to prove your worth. As Michael reminds us: “Success without self-awareness is just performance. Real success is personal.”    What listeners have to say: “Michael's take on Time Sovereignty changed how I look at my week. Life feels lighter.” – Jenna B., Entrepreneur “Finally, someone talking about success in a way that actually makes sense.” – Omar L., Leadership Trainer “That quote, ‘Busy is a boundary issue,' I wrote it on a sticky note. Needed that.” – Tracey D., C-Suite Leader   These stories remind us:  Failure isn't the end. It's an invitation to evolve.  Success means nothing if you lose yourself in the process.  True connection comes from authenticity, not achievement. Now it's your turn: Where are you spending your time? What would it mean to reclaim it? Tag us, DM us, or share your thoughts. We want to hear your story.   Loved this episode?

In this soul-stirring solo episode, I'm diving deep into a conversation that's been rising quietly beneath the surface—not just with my clients, but within myself: it's time to lead from who you are now, not who you used to be. If your messaging feels misaligned or your offers aren't landing like they used to, this episode will show you why it's likely not a strategy issue—it's an identity shift waiting to happen. I share stories from real clients who were unknowingly selling to outdated versions of their audience, watering down their offers, or disconnected from their own leadership. You'll learn how to move from performance to embodiment, how to align your messaging with the woman you've become, and why your presence is the product. This episode is your reminder—and invitation—to stop sanding down your power and start selling from your truth. Liked this episode?

This one's for you who's longing to be known. Today, we are joined by dear friends of The Grove— Rachel Baldwin, Kerri Stanfill, and Susan Robinson— for a vulnerable conversation about what it really means to be seen, loved, and surrounded by a real community.  But where do we begin? How do we create a space where people feel safe to be known — not only when we win, but also when we ache?Through wisdom and practical encouragement, Rachel, Kerri, and Susan invite us to go first — in vulnerability, in confession, in reaching out, in showing up. They discuss the power of presence, the courage it takes to initiate, and why we don't have to have it all together to start forming or maintaining our meaningful relationships. For the woman longing for deeper friendship but unsure where to begin, this episode is filled with grace and guidance for taking that first brave step.Whether you're flourishing in community or feeling forgotten on the sidelines, you'll leave this conversation reminded that you're not alone.

If I Can Just Touch Him: Resting in the Presence of God Today's Homily reflects on two Scripture passages . . . . . . a vision of Jacob at Bethel and the Gospel story of the raising of the official's daughter and the healing of the woman with the hemorrhage. The Homily begins by exploring the nature of a shrine, emphasizing Jacob's recognition of God's presence and the spiritual importance of resting in a holy place. Jacob's dream of a ladder connecting heaven and earth becomes a symbol of God's grace descending and the soul ascending. In the Catholic tradition, this ladder is often identified with Mary, who brought Christ into the world and continues to be a spiritual bridge between heaven and earth. The Homily then turns to the Gospel, highlighting the deep faith of the Jewish official who believes Jesus can restore his dead daughter, and the desperate yet confident faith of the woman who believes that even touching Jesus' garment can heal her. Their stories emphasize the transformative power of physical contact with the Lord. This culminates in the sacrament of the Eucharist, where the faithful come forward to be physically touched by Christ, receiving healing and grace. All the faithful are urged to rest and make a true thanksgiving after communion, allowing the grace of Christ's touch to fully penetrate their lives. How? Listen more to this Meditation Media.

Today we're talking about how to master presence. When I say presence, I'm talking about that "in the zone" feeling, like athletes get, but for everyday life. It's about the way you carry yourself, how you show up, and how you command attention and respect just by being you. You don't need to be on a stage or a field to have it. I'm breaking it all down so you can start using it right now, no matter who you are or what you do.

Who's ready to question a collection of some of our favourite fears? In this episode, Tom brings up the thought, “There are certain experiences I need to be afraid of.” What follows is a popcorn inquiry of a mish-mash of terrifying situations, including: being burned alive, drowning, being judged, being rejected, losing support, hurting other people, and many more. Choose your own adventure: Fear Edition. What the belief in fear boils down to, we notice, is just not wanting to suffer. But as Tom points out, would you consider being constantly terrified of an endless list of possibilities suffering? Is it really intelligent to hold onto suffering in the form of fear in order to avoid future suffering? If you're getting the sense it might not be, join us in questioning the thought, “I need my fear.”

In this episode, Phil and Salvatore Manzi delve into the art of communication, particularly in educational settings. They discuss the significance of building trust through authentic communication, the importance of engaging introductions, and the impact of presence on audience perception. Salvatore shares insights on overcoming imposter syndrome and the balance between planning and spontaneity in communication. The conversation also highlights the role of storytelling in effective communication and concludes with Salvatore's upcoming book, 'Clear and Compelling,' aimed at empowering individuals to express their authentic voices.   Glossophobia is a prevalent fear that affects many people. Effective communication is essential for creating impact and influence. Building trust with participants is crucial for facilitators. Vulnerability in communication fosters deeper connections. Engaging introductions can capture audience attention. Presence and body language significantly affect audience perception. Charisma can be developed and is not solely innate. Imposter syndrome can hinder effective communication. Practice and feedback are vital for improving communication skills. Storytelling is a powerful tool for engaging audiences.

Peace Is the Presence of Christ: A Mission for Every Christian This Homily begins with a personal story: . . . . . . the speaker's first funeral as a newly ordained priest, which was for an only daughter lost in a tragic accident. The grieving family's heartfelt request was for peace . . . peace for their daughter and peace for themselves. This sets the stage for a broader meditation on the Gospel reading where Jesus sends out 72 disciples, symbolizing that all Christians are missionaries, not just clergy. The Homily emphasizes that Christianity involves active participation: bringing Christ to others in daily life . . . not necessarily across seas, but to workplaces, schools, and communities. The idea of being “sent” is built into the structure of the Mass itself. Jesus sends his disciples in pairs to remind us that faith thrives in community and accountability, not in isolation. Saints like Ignatius of Loyola embodied this communal faith. Jesus' instructions . . . travel light, greet no one . . . underscore dependence on God rather than worldly comforts. An anecdote about young soccer players illustrates how self-sufficiency can lead people to neglect God, but life's inevitable struggles reveal our need for Him. Finally, the Homily returns to the theme of peace . . . “Peace be to this house” . . . highlighting that peace is not the absence of hardship but the presence of Christ. When we bring Christ to others, we bring peace and proclaim that the kingdom of God is at hand. The ultimate Christian mission is to bring the presence of Christ . . . true peace . . . to the world.

What if the most powerful leadership tool you have… is your mind? The Neuroscience of Conscious Leadership isn't just a buzz phrase; it's the key to staying grounded, resilient, and effective in today's fast-moving, high-pressure world. In this week's episode of Reflect Forward, I sit down with Aileda Lindal, a brilliant consultant and expert in the convergence of technology and humanity, to explore how leaders can rewire their brains, shift their relationship with stress, and lead with calm, clarity, and conscious presence. Aileda's story of building and leading medical operations during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic is powerful. While the world shut down, her world sped up, and what got her through was presence, self-regulation, and a commitment to leading from the eye of the storm. Mic Drop Moment: “If you're not balanced, you're not calling your best shots; you're calling some potentially really bad ones. And those ripple out.” We talk about: • The science of resilience and how to regulate under pressure • What it means to operate from the “eye of the storm” • The power of mantras like cool, calm, and collected to ground your leadership • Why self-awareness isn't optional—it's a leadership non-negotiable • How I quit drinking and rewired my habits by making one decision and repeating it consistently This conversation is deeply personal and wildly practical. Whether you're leading a company, a team, or yourself, this episode will help you shift from reaction to conscious response. Key Takeaways: 1. Stress is a choice. Reframe it as a challenge or opportunity. 2. Presence builds resilience. The more aware you are, the more empowered your actions become. 3. You can reprogram your brain. Neuroplasticity proves that new habits do stick with consistency. 4. Your energy matters. As a leader, how you show up affects everyone around you.

Have you ever asked yourself: "Why does sex feel confusing or frustrating in my long-term relationship?" "How do I deal with mismatched desire or feelings of rejection?" "Is there a way to bring passion back into our marriage beyond tricks or performance?" If sex and intimacy have become a perplexing part of your long-term relationship, get ready for a revolutionary reframe that will change how you approach connection. Today, Larry Hagner sits down with Susan Morgan Taylor, MA, a renowned somatic sex therapist, creator of the transformational Pleasure Keys Retreats, and host of the popular Sex Talk Café Podcast.  She has helped hundreds of couples deepen intimate connection and create mutually satisfying sex and intimacy for the long term, and she's here to challenge the myth that passion is just about performance or "finding the right move." Susan Morgan Taylor reveals that true intimacy begins with presence: showing up, tuning in, and being fully responsible for your own pleasure and desires. She explains that when there's been a "drift" in your marriage, it's critical to slow down, get curious, and ask not just what you want, but who it's for.  So many couples mistakenly go through the motions, assuming they know what pleases the other and settling for mediocre connection. The profound truth? Each partner is wired uniquely—and without ongoing, honest conversation, you can drift miles apart. Become the best husband you can: https://bit.ly/deamarriageyoutube In this revolutionary conversation, we dig into: Presence Over Performance: Why true intimacy starts with showing up, tuning in, and owning your own pleasure, moving beyond tricks or external validation. The Danger of the "Drift": How couples unknowingly settle for mediocre connection by assuming they know what pleases their partner without ongoing, honest conversation. Safety as the Ultimate Aphrodisiac: Why creating an environment where your partner can relax—free from pressure, kids bursting in, or a million distractions—is crucial for their willingness to lean in. Beyond Abs or Grand Gestures: The profound truth that genuine trust and moment-to-moment presence are the real keys to opening both her heart and body. Playful, Spacious, Non-Transactional Connection: How to bring curiosity, experimentation, and ownership back into your intimate relationship, even in uncomfortable moments. If you're ready to become not just a better lover, but a better man, this episode is your playbook for ditching resentment, reigniting real desire, and creating a marriage that's thriving, not just surviving. Here's what research and observation highlight about sexual intimacy in long-term relationships: Couples who prioritize emotional safety and open communication about sex report a 35% higher level of sexual satisfaction. Mismatched desire is a common challenge impacting over 30% of couples, but effective communication strategies can significantly improve outcomes. The consistent practice of mindful presence during intimate moments is linked to a 25% increase in shared pleasure and deeper connection. www.thedadedge.com/534 www.thedadedge.com/alliance www.thedadedge.com/25questions Instagram | Facebook | LinkedIn www.pathwaytopleasure.com FREE Pleasure Keys PDF → www.pleasurekeys.com

My guest today is Caroline Arc. Carolini Arco is a Spiritual Mentor, Reiki Master Teacher, Past Lives Healer, ICF ACC Life Coach, and Breathwork Facilitator. Carolini's story is a tapestry of bewildering and mystifying experiences that solidified her belief in the workings of the Spirit and her divine calling at 18, she left her small town in southern Brazil with only $60 to her name to pursue her dream of changing the world through art.
