Connor Beaton breaks down the cultural narrative that's convinced boys they're faulty from birth, how fatherlessness and job market discrimination created the perfect storm, and why suppressing emotions doesn't make you stronger, it makes you fragile. Mike opens up about losing his mum at 11 and how that shaped every relationship since, never processing the grief properly, just getting on with it. Connor explains how unprocessed pain doesn't stay quiet, it sabotages your relationships, your business, your health until you deal with it. The conversation covers why male guides matter more than therapists for men with father wounds, how emotional consistency beats sexual polarity in relationships, and why confronting hardship is how you actually mature instead of staying stunted.00:00 Introduction01:55 Addressing struggles faced by young men today06:32 Cultural perception of masculinity affecting men11:53 Gaming and other distractions are hindering ambition20:58 Effects of losing a parent on emotional development26:26 Processing grief and emotional expression30:51 Importance of processing pain for mental health38:10 Recognising when professional help is needed44:30 Gender of therapist influencing therapeutic outcomes50:11 Navigating vulnerability in relationships with women56:13 Pushing gender roles and their societal impacts1:09:52 Influence of social media on relationship dynamics1:25:14 Feminism's impact on modern gender relations1:30:08 Misleading influencer messages on masculinity1:35:21 Redefining what it means to be an alpha male» Escape the 9-5 & build your dream life - https://www.digitalplaybook.net/» Transform your physique - https://www.thrstapp.com/» My clothing brand, THRST - https://thrstofficial.com» Discover Bioniq Lab peptide products- https://bioniqlab.com/mike1010% off with code MIKE10» Join our newsletter for actionable insights from every episode: https://thrst-letter.beehiiv.com/» Join Whoop and get your first month for free - join.whoop.com/FirstThingsThrst» Follow ConnorInstsagram: https://www.instagram.com/mantalks/?hl=enWebsite: https://connorbeaton.com/

We're back with Episode 59 and I am running on fumes. We processed four hogs this past weekend — start to finish, ourselves, no abattoir — and walked away with 600 lbs of high quality pork. 17-hour day. Worth every minute. If you eat meat, you owe it to yourself to understand where it comes from and be part of that process at least once. Circle of life, man.Greg and I also catch up on a full week into our new training split. Legs were brutal — 70,000 lbs of volume — and I'm still feeling it. We break down what's working, what we tweaked on chest day, and why I think this split might carry me all the way into prep for Worlds next November.Then we get into the Enhanced Games happening in Las Vegas. No drug testing, no banned substances — just whatever you want to pump into yourself. I get it, I understand why it exists, but it's a slippery slope. We also talk about the 23-year-old Brazilian bodybuilder who just passed away from hypoglycemia linked to exogenous insulin. It's a sobering reminder of where that road can lead.And to top it all off — I'm doing the sardine fast. Five days, 18 cans a day, iso-caloric at 3,000 calories. Got bloodwork done beforehand, CGM and continuous ketone monitor going, and we'll see what actually changes. Tune in next week for the full breakdown.Topics covered:Processing 4 hogs from start to finish on the homesteadCost breakdown: raising your own meat vs. buying retailOne week into the new high-volume training splitDEXA scan planning and comp prep timeline for WorldsThe Enhanced Games — human performance or chemistry contest?The dangers of exogenous insulin in bodybuildingThe sardine fast experiment beginsGreg Mahler is also a lifetime natural bodybuilder, and can be followed on Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/ketogreg80/Register For My FREE Masterclass: https://www.ketobodybuilding.com/registration-2Get Keto Brick: https://www.ketobrick.com/Subscribe to the podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/42cjJssghqD01bdWBxRYEg?si=1XYKmPXmR4eKw2O9gGCEuQ

“My life would still be beautiful even if I never had children.” Topics Discussed • The emotional death grip many women hold during infertility • Why fear of not having children creates nervous system tension • My personal fertility journey including failed IVF and miscarriage • The moment that shifted my relationship with motherhood • Why letting go does not mean giving up on having a child • The role of fear, identity, and control in the fertility journey • How emotional attachment can impact the body and nervous system • A powerful meditation to release fear around fertility outcomes Hello Beautiful, Monica here supporting you to become the conscious mama you were born to be. Today's episode is a vulnerable one because we are talking about one of the hardest truths many women on the fertility journey cannot even say out loud. What if life could still be beautiful even if you never had children? For many women struggling with infertility, the journey slowly becomes a death grip. Every decision feels like it determines your future, every month carries the weight of hope and disappointment, and life begins to revolve around one single outcome. I know this deeply because I lived it myself during my own years of infertility, failed IVF cycles, and miscarriage. In this episode I share the quiet moment that shifted everything for me. A realization that my life would still have meaning even if motherhood never happened. Not because I stopped wanting a family, but because loosening that grip allowed my body and mind to finally breathe again. We also walk through a powerful meditation inspired by a Psych-K balance that explores both the best case and worst case life scenarios without children. Facing those fears can release the emotional tension that keeps so many women stuck in overdoing, overthinking, and constant urgency on their fertility journey. “When your entire life revolves around fertility, you quietly enter what I call infertility hell.” 02:51 The death grip many women hold during infertility 04:17 How control patterns followed me into motherhood and business 05:13 The quiet moment that shifted my fertility journey 06:51 Why many women cannot say life would be okay without children 08:05 Releasing fear and loosening attachment to outcomes 10:02 The truth about physical healing and cellular health 11:30 Introducing the meditation inspired by birth and death balances 13:25 Preparing yourself emotionally before the meditation 17:04 Activating the thymus center 19:18 Activating the hara point 21:49 Connecting the thymus center and the hara point 24:39 Remembering when the desire for a child first began 27:54 Observing your fertility journey to the present moment 31:17 Imagining the best possible life without children 35:05 Facing the deepest fears about not having children 39:24 Returning to the present moment 43:49 Processing emotions after the meditation 45:45 Integration and emotional release after the exercise Full Transcript on the Blog: https://www.findingfertility.co/blog/hardest-truth-i-faced-during-infertility-not-having-children-how-i-let-go-to-get-pregnant-naturally Let's Do This Together

In this episode of The Entrepreneur Experiment, Gary Fox sits down with Conor Moules, founder and CEO of Barespace, the company building a true operating system for hair and beauty salons. Conor's journey is anything but traditional. He left school at 16 to become a hairdresser, moved to Australia during the recession, found his way into door-to-door sales, then business intelligence, location intelligence, and eventually the Irish startup world through Bamboo. After helping turn Bamboo around during Covid, Conor used that hard-earned reputation to unlock the next chapter: Barespace. What started as a deep understanding of salon life has become a fast-growing software company solving one of the industry's biggest problems: salon owners are expected to be creative experts, managers, marketers, employers, finance teams and operators - all while still working on the floor. Barespace was built to change that. In this conversation, Conor shares how he and co-founder Glenn Baker profiled 173 salons, raised €750,000 from the very customers they wanted to serve, and went on to raise almost €4.9 million in total. This is a story about resilience, customer obsession, reputation, and what happens when you build with the industry, not just for it. Show Notes In this episode, we cover:

In today's episode of Backpacker Radio presented by The Trek, brought to you by Topo Athletic, we are joined by Liz Crandall, a former US Forest Service field ranger who was fired by DOGE last February and has since transitioned into advocacy, activism, and podcasting, serving as the host of Rangers of the Lost Park.  In this one, Liz walks us through nine years of climbing the federal government's career ladder, from GS3 volunteer to permanent employee, and what it actually felt like to receive the phone call telling her it was over. She breaks down the DOGE firing process, the spam-looking emails that nobody believed were real, the Fork in the Road offer that most people didn't take, and what it looked like inside a Forest Service office where even the people who voted for the administration were crying. She also shares what it took to go from a person who was trained never to talk to the press to someone doing live CNN, the roadless rule and why she thinks rescinding it is a bad idea, her crown jewel podcast guest Ken Burns, and two pants-shitting stories from her hitchhiking days that she's been dreading telling us since she booked this. We wrap the show with hikers who discovered human remains in Vermont, the celebrity names we can never remember, how I butchered the boy who cried wolf, the triple crown of the worst gifts to give your kids, and an ALL TIME listener email and poop story.

Even the best systems have moments when things go wrong. What matters most is how we respond. In the Season 19 finale of Sterile Processing 101, Jen Parrott returns to discuss what happens when things go wrong like wet packs, missing instruments, failed indicators, delays, and breakdowns in the process.  This episode is a powerful reminder that solving problems requires more than urgency. It requires communication, accountability, and a culture focused on improvement instead of blame. Because when the OR and SPD work together, setbacks become opportunities to build safer systems for every patient. Don't miss the final episode of Season 19!   #operatingroom #ornurse #sterileprocessing #scrubtech

In this episode of the Uploft Interior Design Podcast, I opened up about one of the hardest weeks I've had in a long time, sharing how deeply shaken I was by the tragic loss of a young girl in my daughter's community and the unexpected passing of a beloved member of my design team who brought so much warmth and dedication to our company. As I tried to process grief, exhaustion, and the emotional weight of supporting my family and business during a difficult season, I also reflected on the challenges of balancing an overwhelming workload with meaningful client projects that reconnect me to different chapters of my life and career. From redesigning spaces for longtime friends and former clients to creatively blending mismatched furniture for a newly married couple, I talked honestly about how design is never just about furniture—it's about people, growth, memories, and change. Throughout the episode, I shared my vulnerability, encouraged listeners to take care of themselves during hard times, and reminded them that even small comforts, humor, and creative outlets can help us through painful moments.

In this episode of the Tough Girl Podcast, we meet Chloe Stead — 42 years old and currently living in a rustic tiny shack in the bush in Tasmania with her husband — but her journey to this simple life has been anything but ordinary. Since 2008, Chloe has been living a travelling, nomadic lifestyle. After leaving school at 18 to join the Navy and later working in health and safety in Perth, Australia, she reached a quiet breaking point while staying at the Whim Creek Hotel in 2006. A simple but powerful thought surfaced: There has to be more to life than this. Within a week, she sold her house, packed up a shipping container, took her dog, and began driving solo around Australia with just $500 AUD — despite being petrified of sleeping in a tent. That leap of faith set the course for the next chapter of her life. But Chloe's story is not just about adventure — it's about grief, reinvention, and learning to live on her own terms. After the sudden death of her partner Willy in 2013, everything stopped. In the depths of grief, Chloe stepped away from social media, let go of her old life, and slowly began again. Meditation, yoga retreats, and eventually walking the Camino de Santiago in 2014 became turning points. Carrying everything on her back, she discovered a deep love for minimalism, simplicity, and self-reliance. Over the years, Chloe has: Walked multiple Caminos including the Camino del Norte, Camino Primitivo and Via de la Plata Hitchhiked and walked along the beaches of Uruguay Taken a 10,000km road trip with her dog Dexter Lived off less than $100 AUD per week Worked seasonally to fund months of adventure Cycled from Alaska to San Francisco (86 nights in a tent!) Walked the Wales Coast Path and the Portuguese Camino Chosen to stay off social media to be fully present on trail Now married, Chloe continues to design a life built around freedom, movement, and intentional simplicity. With big adventures planned for 2026 — including walking the South West Coast Path and the GR10 — she shares honestly about navigating partnership on trail, managing knee issues, strength training gains, and why getting to the start line is often the hardest part. This conversation is about: Letting go of possessions and expectations Living with uncertainty Processing grief through movement Creating "trail life" off-trail Why you don't need technology to experience adventure Trusting that the universe conspires to keep you going And why you should "give it a crack and get to the start line."

In this message, Justin Stockman shares a practical guide on emotional health and spiritual alignment, emphasizing that we are wired for deep connection with God, ourselves, and others. He explains that true wholeness requires us to bring our entire humanity, including hidden pain and core traumas, into the light of God's presence rather than fragmenting our lives. We cannot skip the vital process of honest mourning if we want to experience deep-seated comfort and lasting joy.

Healing Betrayal Trauma: EMDR, IFS & the Real Reasons People Cheat Infidelity doesn't happen in a vacuum. And healing after betrayal isn't just about “getting over it” or learning to trust again. In this deeply compassionate and eye-opening conversation, Lora sits down with marriage and sex therapist Todd Creager to explore the real roots of infidelity, betrayal trauma, emotional safety, and lasting healing. Together, they unpack how childhood wounds, attachment injuries, shame, hypervigilance, and nervous system survival patterns shape both betrayal and recovery. You'll also learn how EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and Internal Family Systems (IFS) can help both betrayed partners and betrayers process trauma safely, understand their protective patterns, and move toward genuine healing and connection. This episode is not about excusing betrayal. It's about understanding it deeply enough to heal. Whether you stay or leave, this conversation will help you stop personalizing the betrayal, understand your own patterns more compassionately, and move toward clarity, safety, and self-trust. Top 3 Takeaways Infidelity is often connected to unresolved trauma, attachment wounds, and protective survival patterns that began long before the relationship. EMDR and Internal Family Systems (IFS) can help both partners process betrayal trauma, regulate the nervous system, and heal emotional wounds safely. Healing after infidelity isn't about rushing back into trust — it's about rebuilding emotional safety, understanding protective patterns, and creating real change over time. Favorite Quotes “You don't just cheat. It doesn't happen in a vacuum.” “Life is generous. It helps us wake up to the parts of ourselves we didn't know how to love before.” “Healing is not about forcing trust. It's about becoming safe again.” What You'll Learn: Why people cheat • Betrayal trauma and nervous system healing • How EMDR works after infidelity • What Internal Family Systems (IFS) actually means • Why hypervigilance after betrayal is normal • Childhood trauma and adult relationships • Why betrayed partners stay • Rebuilding trust safely • Emotional safety after infidelity • Processing trauma without retraumatizing yourself • The difference between understanding behavior and excusing it • Why healing takes time — even in healthy reconciliation About Todd Todd Creager is an experienced relationship therapist and sex expert specializing in couples counseling, marriage and intimacy.  From healing from trauma through EMDR therapy, to overcoming infidelity Todd has helped countless couples overcome the issues that they face – increasing their connection and communication.  Todd provides a variety of services and methods – from routine relationship therapy sessions to couples retreats and counseling relating to sex addiction and toxic relationships.  It's important to find working solutions for each individual couple.

How are hypothyroidism and Hashimoto's related to your risk of having high cholesterol and heart disease? What symptoms have you normalized that might actually be your body asking for help?In this Thyroid Thursday episode, I share what recently happened when my Dad landed in the hospital and ultimately needed open-heart surgery for a triple bypass after doctors found major arterial blockages. This is a vulnerable episode for me, but it comes with great advice on handling unexpected life events and how they relate to your own health management. So get ready for some deep emotions, but also deep insights into why it's never too late to start taking our health more seriously.I talk about the fear and overwhelm of getting to Florida in time, what it was like watching him go through surgery and early recovery, and how grateful I am that he's doing well now. From this experience, there are 6 big lessons that changed how I'm showing up in my life and work. As I go through them, I also invite you to think of areas in your own life and health journey that can use some immediate action today.Since this is Thyroid Thursday, we can't finish an episode without getting a little clinical and science-y. I talk a little bit about the thyroid–heart connection and how the thyroid is closely connected to cholesterol. I explain why, when someone has high cholesterol, I want to see a full thyroid panel (not just TSH), and why treating cholesterol without addressing thyroid function can miss the root issue.I close with a reminder to get the right testing and support now, listen to your body early, release perfectionism, and focus on consistent compassion and action—because we can't buy back time. And as always, getting your stress and emotional well-being under control is one of the best things we can do to support our overall health today.Disclaimer: This information is being provided to you for educational and informational purposes only.

In May 2024, the "Mother's Day Superstorm" slammed into Mars with a force Earth didn't experience. But how do we see a storm on a planet without a magnetic field? In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Jacob Parrott from the European Space Agency (ESA) to discuss his groundbreaking research recently published in Nature Communications. Jacob explains how he and his team "hacked" veteran satellites—the Mars Express and the ExoMars Trace Gas Orbiter—to perform an unintended dance known as "mutual radio occultation." Discover how redundant hardware from failed landers became a cutting-edge sensor for Martian aeronomy, revealing how solar flares strip the atmosphere from the Red Planet. In this episode: • From biology and media internships to ESA's grad scheme. • The physics of radio occultation: Using signal "bending" to measure atmospheric density. • Retasking the Melacom and Electra antennas for deep-space science. • Processing the data: From raw waveforms to Python and SPICE simulations.

Infidelity doesn't happen in a vacuum. And healing after betrayal isn't just about “getting over it” or learning to trust again. In this deeply compassionate and eye-opening conversation, Lora sits down with marriage and sex therapist Todd Creager to explore the real roots of infidelity, betrayal trauma, emotional safety, and lasting healing. Together, they unpack how childhood wounds, attachment injuries, shame, hypervigilance, and nervous system survival patterns shape both betrayal and recovery. You'll also learn how EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and Internal Family Systems (IFS) can help both betrayed partners and betrayers process trauma safely, understand their protective patterns, and move toward genuine healing and connection. This episode is not about excusing betrayal. It's about understanding it deeply enough to heal. Whether you stay or leave, this conversation will help you stop personalizing the betrayal, understand your own patterns more compassionately, and move toward clarity, safety, and self-trust. Top 3 Takeaways Infidelity is often connected to unresolved trauma, attachment wounds, and protective survival patterns that began long before the relationship. EMDR and Internal Family Systems (IFS) can help both partners process betrayal trauma, regulate the nervous system, and heal emotional wounds safely. Healing after infidelity isn't about rushing back into trust — it's about rebuilding emotional safety, understanding protective patterns, and creating real change over time. Favorite Quotes “You don't just cheat. It doesn't happen in a vacuum.” “Life is generous. It helps us wake up to the parts of ourselves we didn't know how to love before.” “Healing is not about forcing trust. It's about becoming safe again.”   What You'll Learn: Why people cheat • Betrayal trauma and nervous system healing • How EMDR works after infidelity • What Internal Family Systems (IFS) actually means • Why hypervigilance after betrayal is normal • Childhood trauma and adult relationships • Why betrayed partners stay • Rebuilding trust safely • Emotional safety after infidelity • Processing trauma without retraumatizing yourself • The difference between understanding behavior and excusing it • Why healing takes time — even in healthy reconciliation   About Todd Todd Creager is an experienced relationship therapist and sex expert specializing in couples counseling, marriage and intimacy.  From healing from trauma through EMDR therapy, to overcoming infidelity Todd has helped countless couples overcome the issues that they face – increasing their connection and communication.  Todd provides a variety of services and methods – from routine relationship therapy sessions to couples retreats and counseling relating to sex addiction and toxic relationships.  It's important to find working solutions for each individual couple.

How do you know the tray you just opened is truly ready for your patient? In Episode 6 of Sterile Processing 101, we sit down with Adam Okada to take a closer look at the indicators, tape, filters, and packaging features that communicate critical sterility information before instruments ever reach the field. Join us as we discuss what these indicators do, what they don't tell us, and why the OR team is the final line of defense before those instruments are used on a patient. #operatingroom #sterileprocessing #ornurse #scrubtech

Quick Summary: Kelsey sits down with Jodie, founder of Root and Bloom Therapy, for an honest, heartfelt pregnancy Q&A. They cover everything from why Kelsey waited 20 weeks to announce, to the emotional weight of miscarriage, the art of letting go when you're a type-A entrepreneur, and what intentional postpartum self-care really looks like the second time around.In This Episode:Why Kelsey waited until 20 weeks to announce her second pregnancy — and the business fears behind the decisionThe fear of losing clients when you announce a pregnancy as a self-employed entrepreneurKelsey's miscarriage journey and the conception story she wasn't expectingThe importance of "sitting in the pit" with someone rather than rushing past griefWhy her second pregnancy has felt completely different from her firstPreparing mentally and emotionally for birth and postpartum — with a toddler in the mixNavigating the relationship with her son Freddy during this major family transitionKelsey's worries this time vs. last time: what's changed and what hasn'tOutsourcing and asking for help — finallyPostpartum self-care rituals: the daily micro-moments that actually make a differenceKey Takeaways:You don't owe anyone your news in real time. Holding sacred moments close — pregnancy, health, family milestones — is a boundary, not a secret. Processing privately first is a gift you give yourself.Surrendering control isn't weakness — it's wisdom. In fertility, in business, and in parenting, the outcomes we most want rarely come from forcing them.Grief deserves a witness, not a fixer. When someone is in the pit, what they often need most is someone willing to come sit in it with them — not offer a ladder too soon.Know your joy list before the fog sets in. Write down the five to ten micro-moments that fill your cup before postpartum arrives, because you won't remember them when you're in the thick of it.Values aren't static — and that's okay. Checking in weekly with what this season is asking of you is more sustainable than rigidly holding one set of priorities.Memorable Quotes:"It was never a secret — there are just parts of life so magical that you want to hold them tight to your heart for a little bit." — Kelsey"Sometimes what you need is for someone to come into the pit and sit in the pit with you — not try to make you feel better, just help you not feel so alone." — Jodie"Going back four months, I would not have chosen to process all of that by myself. It was a lot of unnecessary rumination." — KelseyResources Mentioned:Root and Bloom Therapy: rootandbloomtherapy.caRoot and Bloom on Instagram: @rootandbloomtherapyservicesKelsey' Instagram: @KelseyReidlKelsey's Website: KelseyReidl.comKelsey's newsletter: kelseyreidl.com/newsletter"Surviving Life with a Toddler" Workshop: End of June in Brantford (in partnership with Grant Kids Therapy)About the Guest:Jodie Muir is the founder of Root and Bloom Therapy, offering individual and couples therapy with specialized training in perinatal mental health — all things pregnancy, postpartum, and parenthood.

What should Christians do when a respected spiritual leader falls into sin, scandal, or failure? How do we process the disappointment, confusion, and hurt without becoming cynical, bitter, or shaken in our faith?In this episode of the Pastoral Thoughts Podcast, Pastor Jack sits down with Mike Metzger for an honest and biblical conversation about leadership failure, spiritual integrity, and perseverance. Together they discuss how believers should respond when influential leaders fall, how Scripture addresses these tragedies, and how to keep our eyes on Christ rather than men.The conversation also turns inward as they examine the warnings Scripture gives to every believer—especially leaders—about pride, compromise, isolation, and neglecting one's walk with God. This episode is both a sobering reminder and a hopeful encouragement that while men may fail, Christ never does.Topics include:• Processing disappointment and disillusionment biblically• Protecting your faith when leaders fail• The dangers of pride and spiritual drift• Accountability, humility, and perseverance in ministry• Restoring fallen believers with truth and grace• Guarding your own heart against moral and spiritual collapse

In this episode, we kick things off by examining a major freight broker navigating a brutally tough first quarter but projecting a significant turnaround ahead. RXO released its earnings Thursday morning, reporting a first-quarter adjusted EBITDA of just six million dollars, down sharply from twenty-two million dollars a year earlier. Despite compressed margins, the company aggressively shifted its strategy by increasing its spot mix to thirty-three percent of volume, helping produce what RXO described as the largest sequential increase in gross profit per load in more than three years. Looking ahead, the broker is forecasting a much stronger second quarter with adjusted EBITDA expected to land between twenty-seven million dollars and thirty-seven million dollars. Next, we explore the trade sector where billions of dollars in tariff refunds are finally beginning to flow through a newly launched federal portal. U.S. Customs and Border Protection rolled out its Consolidated Administration and Processing of Entries tool, known as CAPE, on April twentieth within the Automated Commercial Environment portal. The digital platform is processing claims far more efficiently than anticipated, with refunds potentially arriving in early May. However, a massive readiness gap is emerging, as CBP estimates roughly forty-six billion dollars in refunds is currently stalled for importers that have not completed ACH refund authorization or established proper portal access. Finally, we cover a controversial regulation governing commercial driver's licenses as a federal court denied a request to block the rule for non-domiciled drivers on Tuesday. A three-judge panel in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia denied a motion seeking to stay enforcement of FMCSA's rule, which became effective March sixteenth and specifies that non-domiciled CDLs are available only to H-2A, H-2B, and E-2 visa holders, excluding asylum seekers, asylees, DACA recipients, refugees, and people with temporary protected status. While the stay was denied, the combined cases will move forward with petitioners' briefs due June fifteenth and oral arguments expected in September.

Matthew Efird and his wife, Hannah, were joyfully expecting their second son when the word "abnormalities" during a routine ultrasound changed everything. What followed was a journey into anticipatory grief after their son Noah was diagnosed with Trisomy 13, a condition often described as “incompatible with life.” In today's episode, Matthew shares what it was like to walk through the remainder of the pregnancy with that knowledge—holding both hope and heartbreak at the same time. He talks about how he and Hannah navigated those months together, how they learned to communicate in the middle of grief, and the intentional ways they chose to spend their time with Noah before he was born.Matthew also shares about Noah's birth and the unexpected gift of 57½ hours together — time to hold him, to introduce him to family, and to fully experience what it meant to parent their son on this side of heaven.In this episode, we discuss: The joy of expecting a second child after a season of waiting  The moment everything changed at a routine ultrasound  Processing the word “abnormalities” and a Trisomy 13 diagnosis  Walking through anticipatory grief during pregnancy  How Matthew and Hannah supported each other in their marriage  Two simple but powerful questions that helped them communicate in grief  Choosing to be intentional with the time they had with Noah  Noah's birth and the gift of 57½ hours together  What it meant to parent Noah during his brief life Be sure to join us next week for the second half of this conversation, when Matthew shares what life looked like after Noah's passing and offers insight into grief from a father's perspective.Resources & Links: Matthew's book: Even Though We Will Website: https://eventhoughwewill.com/If this episode resonated with you, we invite you to share it with someone who may need encouragement today.I would love to hear your thoughts on the show.

In this episode, Brooke and I dive into a struggle so many Christian women share: feeling disconnected from their bodies, overwhelmed in their lives, and genuinely unsure why their health is suffering. What often shows up: Constant stress and urgency Snapping at loved ones Poor health or confusing symptoms Feeling unable to slow down The root issue isn't just physical, it's a whole-person misalignment. Why "Healthy" Efforts Aren't Working So many women are trying: Diet changes Supplements Exercise plans But still feel stuck. The missing piece? The "why" behind the dysfunction. Your body responds to: Chronic stress Emotional wounds Spiritual disconnection Without addressing those, surface-level fixes just won't last. Living in Survival Mode A key theme we talk about is the nervous system. So many women are stuck in fight-or-flight, which looks like: Everything feeling urgent Inability to rest Constant distraction Burnout and irritability Your body was designed to handle stress briefly, not live in it daily. When it does, both physical and emotional health begin to decline. Emotions Are Signals Instead of suppressing emotions, Brooke reframes them as signals: Anger → often rooted in fear Anxiety → often tied to overload Irritation → unmet needs Learning to name emotions helps calm your body and understand what's really happening. Biblically, emotions aren't sinful, they're human. Even Jesus experienced deep grief and distress. The goal isn't to avoid emotion, but to remain obedient within it. Connection Before Correction This applies to both parenting and personal growth. Instead of immediately fixing behavior: Pause Attune Understand When you feel seen (and help others feel seen), real change becomes possible. Why You Feel Overwhelmed The issue often isn't effort, it's capacity. Your nervous system determines how much you can handle. If it's overwhelmed, adding more habits only makes things worse. Healing expands your capacity over time so you can handle life differently, even if your responsibilities don't change. The Work That Changes You Real transformation requires deeper work: Processing emotions Facing past wounds Letting go of control Surrendering to God It's not easy, but it leads to lasting peace and clarity. Getting Back Into Alignment So many women are living out of order: Work and responsibilities first God and self last True alignment looks like: God Family Self-care Everything else When God is first, everything else begins to fall into place. Self-Care Isn't Selfish Neglecting yourself leads to burnout and disconnection. Taking care of yourself allows you to: Show up fully for others Respond instead of react Live with more peace and joy You weren't designed to run on empty. Final Takeaway Your body, mind, and spirit are connected. Healing starts when you: Slow down Pay attention Process what's beneath the surface Reorder your life around God It's not about doing more. It's about living aligned.
