On this episode of Anchored by the Sword, I'm so excited to introduce you to Debora Coty—speaker, author, and the voice behind the beloved Too Blessed to Be Stressed series that has sold over 2 million copies worldwide.Debora shares her powerful story of stepping into writing later in life, obeying God's nudge in unexpected seasons, and how humor, Scripture, and honesty became tools God used to bring healing—not just to others, but to her own heart.We talk about what it looks like to follow God through deep loss, unanswered prayers, depression, and reluctant obedience—and how God's presence meets us even when joy feels impossible.Debora also opens up about her newest devotional, Bless Your Heart, the meaning behind the title, and how knowing the names and character of God carried her through grief, trauma, and heartbreak and how it can do the same for you!Highlighted TakeawaysYou are never “too late” to step into God's calling—obedience matters more than timingGod's presence, not answers, is what sustains us through painResisting “snark bait” and choosing kindness reflects Christ more than retaliationScripture has the power to soften hardened hearts and restore hopeThis conversation is full of wisdom, hope, laughter, and reminders that God is near—even when life feels overwhelming.Bio:Debora M. Coty is an events speaker, columnist, certified writing coach, and award-winning author of more than 40 inspirational books, including the bestselling Too Blessed to be Stressed series, with more than 2 million books sold in multiple languages worldwide. Debora is a diehard tennis addict and choco-athlete (that's the step beyond chocoholic – she exercises just so she can eat more chocolate). Deb lives, loves, and laughs in central Florida with her longsuffering husband of 47 years, two grown children, five precocious grandbuddies, and Laz the Resurrection Dog (now that's a story you must hear!).Anchor Verses:Psalm 46:1Psalm 147:3Ezekiel 36:26Philippians 4: 6-7Connect with Debora:Website: https://deboracoty.comIG: https://www.instagram.com/deboracotyFB: https://www.facebook.com/share/1G8WJGBx5H/?mibextid=wwXIfr***We love hearing from you!

In this episode, I'm joined by Anadi Taylor for a reflective conversation about the tendency to 'try too hard' and the often unseen cost of living in constant effort.We explore what “trying too hard” really means, why so many people fall into this pattern, and how the short-term rewards of approval, achievement, and control can quietly lead to exhaustion, burnout, and disconnection from ourselves.Together, we look at how early conditioning, parental expectations, and social and peer pressures shape this drive to over-effort, often without our conscious awareness. We also explore what becomes possible when we introduce greater stillness within our actions - not through withdrawal or passivity, but through clarity, presence, and a genuine willingness to let go of patterns that no longer serve.This conversation is an invitation to question where effort has become habit, and how meaningful change begins with the true desire to live differently.This conversation with Anadi Taylor forms part of my ongoing series, 'The Practise of Being', a collection of reflections and conversations exploring how we live, act, and relate when we soften habitual striving and return to presence, clarity, and inner ease.

As 2025 comes to a close and we step into a new year, this episode is both a reflection and an initiation. In this conversation, Kevin brings the last threads of recent, more esoteric teachings together and grounds them into something practical, lived, and immediately accessible. This is an episode about awakening, but not awakening as mythology, fantasy, or spiritual spectacle. This is awakening as presence. Awakening as now.Kevin introduces The Brotherhood, a new entry-level community designed as the starting point for men ready to do this work. Not someday. Not when life slows down. But right here, in the middle of ordinary life. The Brotherhood is where fundamentals are restored: separating thoughts from facts, recognizing the beta condition, learning to observe the mind instead of being consumed by it, and returning again and again to the present moment. This episode explains why group coaching, witnessed awareness, and shared observation are some of the most powerful accelerators of real transformation.From there, the episode deepens. Kevin explores the question that has driven seekers, mystics, and philosophers across history: What is it? Drawing from lived experience, not dogma, he unpacks what teachers across traditions have pointed toward when they say “everything is love.” Not love as emotion, sensation, or sentiment - but love as unity, consciousness, and the underlying force animating all things. Light and shadow, fear and desire, form and formlessness are not opposites to be eliminated but movements within the same field.A central theme of the episode is presence. Kevin dismantles the idea that enlightenment is dramatic or supernatural. There is no transfiguration, no escape from life, no removal from the human experience. Awakening is simply remembering. Being here. Watching yourself think instead of being trapped inside thought. Observing perception instead of naming and categorizing reality. Presence is enlightenment, and enlightenment is available in every moment.The episode also weaves together relationship and unity through a powerful reflection often attributed to Rumi: “When I forget who I am, I'm serving you. When I remember who I am, I am you.” Kevin explains how forgetting ourselves places us in the beta condition, where unconscious behavior serves others by triggering what they need to see. Remembering ourselves restores unity, dissolves separation, and reveals every relationship - human, object, circumstance - as the universe loving itself awake through us.This is not a destination. Awakening is not permanent, fixed, or owned. It is remembered, forgotten, and remembered again. But once seen, it cannot be unseen. And once unity becomes the foreground of life, everything else - work, responsibility, identity - falls gently into the background.This episode is both an invitation and a reminder. Nothing needs to be added. Nothing needs to be escaped. Everything is already here. Everything is now. Everything is love.

"A lot of what we do is give patients hope. Give patients hope and listen to them. And that, in itself, is so healing. I think it's so healing and transformative, ...even if they don't get to where they were before, they become the best version of themselves that they can be." ~Elizabth Sult BSN, RN, NC-BC"In conventional medicine, the question is, what's the diagnosis? And once you know the diagnosis, then there's sort of these algorithms that, you try to see if they help. But in functional medicine, once you understand what's the diagnosis, the question is, really, why? Why do you have the diagnosis?And that's where these antecedents, triggers, mediators, all these kinds of ideas come from— to get to the why. But I like to say that the antecedents, triggers and mediators are kind of like Einstein's Theory of Relativity, right? Because an antecedents from one frame might be a trigger from another frame.And so, you know, getting to the real root cause. You might think, Oh, I got to the molecular medicine cause. But actually, it was a spiritual mal-alignment that caused the biochemical issue, because it caused all this stress and strain and all that trickles down to the molecular medicine."  ~Dr. Tom Sult MD, IFMCPAh-Ha MomentsFunctional Nursing asks a different question: Not just what's the nursing diagnosis? But, why is this happening?  And what does this body need to heal? It's about raising wellness so illness has less space to take holdThe Functional Nurse listens for patterns, stories, and turning points. Elizabeth and Tom highlight how powerful it is when Nurses can really listen, and help patients connect the dots in their own health journeyFunctional Nursing and Integrative Nurse Coaching are a natural fit. When Nurses combine root-cause thinking with coaching presence, patients feel seen, supported, and empowered to take steps that fit into their busy livesThe nervous system matters deeply. Functional Nurses learn about how long-term stress and fight-or-flight affect digestion, immunity, hormones, and healing, and why joy, safety, and regulation are essential parts of careThis work restores dignity and hope for patients and nurses. Links and ResourcesFunctional Nursing: A Functional Medicine Framework for NursesFunctional Nursing + Lifestyle Nursing Dual Certificate PathwayJust Be Well websiteBook: Just Be Well by Thomas SultEmail for questions: Integrative Nurse Coach Academy I Integrative Nurse Coach FoundationWe provide nurses with a global community for learning, networking, and reconnecting.

In this episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosts Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton explore one of the most heartbreaking truths in first responder families (Amazon Affiliate): your children often feel your absence long before you ever realize you're gone. You provide, you protect, you show up exhausted but determined — and still, your kids quietly carry the weight of your schedule, your stress, and your emotional unavailability. This episode reveals why first responder parents unintentionally leave their kids feeling unseen and unheard — and how to repair connection in ways that last a lifetime.

Of course, I'm not recording this on Christmas Day, but I wanted to leave you a small note of encouragement on this special day. Merry Christmas, my sisters in Christ! In the middle of everything—family, expectations, traditions, and noise—I want to gently remind you to receive the Gift. Not just celebrate it. Not just acknowledge it. But to truly receive Him. Today doesn't have to be loud or productive. It can be quiet. It can be still. It can be a moment where you soften your heart, lay down the striving, and simply worship Jesus for who He is and what He's done. My prayer is that you find a few sacred moments today to be present with Him, and to rest in the peace only He brings. Merry Christmas.   I pray this blesses you!   Ready to Make Consistent Income From a Podcast?  Join my 5-Day Profitable Podcast Bootcamp!

On this special Christmas Day episode of the Real Life Runners Podcast (Episode 441), we slow things down and explore a different side of running — one that goes far beyond pace, mileage, or goals.Today's conversation invites you to see running as a spiritual practice — a space for reflection, waiting, preparation, and renewal. Drawing inspiration from spiritual traditions like Advent, we talk about what it means to trust the process, honor seasons of growth (and rest), and show up with intention, not just in running, but in life.We share personal reflections on how discipline can become a form of devotion, how movement can reconnect us to our bodies, and why some of the most meaningful progress happens when we stop forcing and start listening. Whether you view spirituality through a faith-based lens or simply as a deeper connection to yourself, this episode offers a gentle reminder: your body is wise, your journey matters, and you don't have to rush to become who you're meant to be.As you move through the holiday season — and into whatever comes next — we hope this conversation encourages you to run with presence, trust where you are, and step forward with courage and compassion for yourself.00:16 Spirituality and Running01:49 Running as a Higher Practice06:00 Advent and Running08:51 Trusting the Process17:33 Discipline as Devotion27:22 Body as a Gift29:43 Unlocking Your Body's Potential30:21 Shifting Perspectives on Fitness31:48 The Infinite Game of Health and Fitness34:04 Embracing Numerology and Spirituality35:48 The Symbolism of Years and Traditions39:31 Reflecting on Life's Transitions46:15 Running as a Devotional Practice47:03 Meditation and Presence in RunningJoin the 30 Day Running Reset and get a plan that will help you build a strong and injury-proof body by combining running and strength training in a way that actually works for runners like you.Gain access to my new secret podcast, Unbreakable: The Runner's Guide To Injury-Proofing Your Body After 40.

Hey Friends~  Are you a soothing presence for your kids?  According to today's guest, a soothing presence is someone who is okay when you are not okay.   Usually these are specific people. You can probably know who your person  is.  Who will be okay when you are not?   As parents we want to be a soothing presence for our children.  Fortunately, it is simply a skill to learn.  So, if you did not have that from your parents growing up, you can learn it now!   Our natural instincts are to want to make our kids feel better.  When you learn to be a soothing presence, you allow your child to experience and express what is happening without you being triggered by it.  Today's guest beautifully explains how this happens in plain language.   Always cheering you on!  Dinalynn CONTACT the Host, Dinalynn:  hello@thelanguageofplay.com Have a Question or Comment?  Leave a voice message!  https://castfeedback.com/play Book a ZOOM call to discuss working together:  https://calendly.com/hello-play/strategy-session    ABOUT THE GUEST:   Dr. Marcus is a highly respected figure in Clinical Psychology known for his expertise in improving the lives of individuals and families.

As we move through the holiday season, there's a good chance life feels a little louder than usual — even when it's a “beautiful” kind of loud.There's the hustle. The to-do lists. The coordinating. The cooking. The driving. The expectations. The emotions. The memories. The tender moments… and the complicated ones too.And in the middle of all of it, the older I get, the more I realize something simple and powerful:The quality of our relationships often comes down to our ability to pause. To slow down. To make one conscious choice in the moment — instead of reacting on autopilot.This week on Heal Your Relationships, I'm joined by Dr. Jessie Mahoney — physician coach, yoga and mindfulness teacher, and the creator of Pause and Presence. She is truly an expert in helping people bring more stillness, intention, and steadiness into their homes, workplaces, and day-to-day lives.This conversation is full of practical “pearls” you can use immediately — especially during the holidays, when everything speeds up and our nervous systems run hot.One of my favorite takeaways is how Jessie teaches pausing inside transitions — because transitions already contain a natural pause. Before work. Before you walk in the door at home. Before you respond to a difficult moment.Even one to five minutes can completely change the energy you bring into a room.Timestapm: 00:50 Introducing Dr. Jessie Mahoney + why this conversation matters01:45 Who Jessie is03:06 How “Pause and Presence” was born (and why pausing changes everything)05:24 What happens when life gets hard (and why support matters)07:23 “In the pause is where your peace and control live”12:05 Why slowing down can feel like a “foreign country” (and why it's healing)24:36 A simple tool: pausing in transitions (car pause before work / before home)35:39 Productivity addiction vs. true priorities (presence, connection, joy)So if this season feels full… or tender… or overwhelming… or simply busy — consider this episode an invitation to slow down just enough to return to the people you love with more presence.Resources mentioned in this episode: https://www.jessiemahoneymd.com/Oh—and if you have something you're navigating and would love my take on it...

Whether it's the holidays or all year long, giving matters. Tim and Steve share a short quote from St Francis of Assisi: "It is in giving that we receive." They explain that giving is not only about gifts. It can be spending time with people, listening, and being there for someone. Time is important and something everyone can give. Life can be busy and full of distractions. This episode is a good reminder to slow down and make time for people who matter.

Merry Christmas, friend!

Christmas can bring joy, connection, and gratitude — but it can also surface grief, exhaustion, sadness, or a quiet sense of disconnection. Wherever you find yourself today is valid.This episode is not about transition, next steps, or what comes next. It is an invitation to soften, to rest emotionally, and to remember that you are already enough. You have not missed anything. You are not behind.

A reminder that you are loved, needed, and held — exactly as you are.Key Themes✨ Self-acceptance without judgement ✨ Emotional wellbeing during the holidays ✨ Releasing external expectations ✨ Presence, kindness, and gentleness ✨ Remembering your inherent worthTakeaways✨ You are exactly where you need to be today ✨ It's okay to feel heavy, quiet, or lonely at Christmas ✨ Your worth is not defined by milestones or outcomes ✨ This year was about shedding layers, not achieving goals ✨ Falling in love with who you are now is part of the journeySound Bites✨ You are needed, you are wanted ✨ You haven't missed anything ✨ Be gentle, be kindAlso available to watch on YouTube.

Send us a textWhat if Christmas is less about a date on the calendar and more about a birth that can happen within you right now?In this Christmas reflection, we explore Christ Consciousness as a lived experience - not a religious performance, but a way of being rooted in presence, compassion, unity, and love. This episode invites a gentle return to what is already whole within you, especially in a season that can feel both meaningful and complex.We connect this message to a wider chorus of wisdom across spiritual traditions - from Buddha Nature in Buddhism, Krishna Consciousness in Hinduism, and remembrance and surrender in Islam, to devekut in Judaism, flow in Taoism, and earth-based traditions of kinship with life. Different languages, same center: nothing sacred is missing from you.We also unpack the often-misread teaching, “the kingdom of heaven is within you,” and bring it into everyday life - how you speak to yourself, how you breathe through tension, and how you choose gentleness when old patterns pull toward self-judgment.Whether this season feels joyful, quiet, heavy, or complicated, you're not alone. This episode offers simple, grounded reflections for embodying love over fear, unity over separation, and compassion over judgment, especially toward yourself.This is not a sermon. It's a reminder.A reminder of how Jesus lived - refusing exclusion, meeting others with love, and seeing worth in all. And an invitation to let presence do the heavy lifting, turning rituals into remembrance and longing into belonging.If this reflection resonates, follow the podcast, share it with someone who may need a gentle word today, and leave a review to help others find their way home.

Pastor David shares a Christmas Eve message from Matthew 1 on the interrupting, intervening, indwelling presence of Jesus.

This episode […]

Are you hiding in the bathroom right now, taking a break from the holiday chaos? If you are, I get it.   This time of year has a way of turning even the most organized person into an overwhelmed, overfunctioning machine. You're trying to keep all the traditions alive, cook the perfect meals, buy thoughtful gifts for everyone, manage everyone's emotions, and somehow make it all look effortless. So, if the holidays feel more exhausting than they do magical, you're in the right place.   Join me this week as I explore why we turn this season into a performance instead of a time to actually enjoy ourselves, and how to stop overcomplicating the holidays. You'll discover why doing more doesn't create more meaning, the deeper emotions that often hide underneath all the overdoing, and how to let the holidays be exactly what they are - nothing more, nothing less.   Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://carriehollandmd.com/183   Follow me on Facebook and Instagram: https://www.facebook.com/carriehollandmd https://www.instagram.com/carriehollandmd/

The Presence of Love - Matthew 1:18-25, Rev. Eugene Kim by CGS Media

The Gift of Your Presence: Why Showing Up Matters More Than You Think In this heartfelt Human Intimacy Podcast episode, Dr. Kevin Skinner and MaryAnn Michaelis explore the powerful impact of truly being present in the lives of the people we love. During a season filled with busyness, distraction, and endless to-do lists, they invite listeners to slow down and consider the deeper message presence communicates: You matter. I see you. I care. Through meaningful personal stories—celebrations, graduations, family milestones, healing conversations, and everyday moments—Kevin and MaryAnn reflect on how presence fosters connection, emotional safety, belonging, and joy. They also discuss how curiosity, vulnerability, emotional attunement, and reducing distraction can transform relationships, reduce loneliness, and nurture human intimacy. Listeners are encouraged to offer the gift of presence intentionally this season: celebrate others' wins, sit with them in pain, express appreciation, forgive where needed, and take time to let people feel seen and “felt.” Because when we show up, we don't just fill space—we change hearts, regulate nervous systems, strengthen bonds, and remind each other we are not alone.

You know about breath work. You know about cold exposure. It's a thing all the major "influencers" tell you to do. I had some skepticism myself and that's why I wanted to have this man, the original cold exposure and breath work guy on himself, Wim Hof! He is a man who has redefined the limits of the human mind and body. Known globally as The Iceman, Wim Hof has shown millions of people how to take control of their physiology through breath, cold exposure, and mindset. From climbing mountains in nothing but shorts to teaching everyday men how to regulate stress, build resilience, and reconnect with their primal strength, Wim's work challenges everything we think we know about comfort, health, and human potential. Today, we're talking about cold, breath, discipline, and what it really means to return to our factory settings as men.

Why good communication requires presence, not performance.Effective communication isn't about perfecting your performance. According to Dr. Kate Mason, it's about being powerfully present.Mason is a world champion debater, executive communication coach, and author of the book Powerfully Likable. In her work coaching senior executives to communicate more effectively, she emphasizes that it's not about creating a performative persona, it's about uncovering the authentic communicator you already are. “The coaching is just bringing the real parts of you to the fore,” she says, “uncovering rather than totally building from scratch. A lot of people come to me and say, I need to be more warm or more insert adjective here. And I say, I'm not gonna help you be more warm if that's not what's coming naturally to you. I am gonna help you work out the thing you're already doing, the thing you're already saying, how to make that comfortable for people around you.”In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Mason and host Matt Abrahams discuss strategies for more present communication. From avoiding "imposing syndrome” to reducing “the delta between your real self and that corporate persona,” Mason's insights explore how we can bring more of our true selves to the table.To listen to the extended Deep Thinks version of this episode, please visit FasterSmarter.io/premium.Episode Reference Links:Dr. Kate MasonKate's Book: Powerfully LikeableEp. 210 First Impression to Lasting Impact: Use Status Strategically Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (02:32) - Why Confidence Is the Wrong Goal (03:55) - Bridging Your Real and Work Selves (05:27) - What Is Imposing Syndrome?
