Podcasts about real conversations

Actor George Stults steps far beyond the nostalgia of 7th Heaven in this intimate, unexpectedly revealing conversation that uncovers the parts of his story most fans have never heard. From wrestling mats in Colorado to a chance moment in Hollywood that redirected his entire life, George opens up about the quiet insecurities he hid for years, the confidence he had to painstakingly build, and the grounding values passed down from his family that continue to shape who he is on and off the screen. Olivia guides him through reflections on authenticity, emotional courage, and the rare kind of connection that allows two people to challenge, support, and genuinely see one another the true heartbeat of this episode.Together, they explore how growth often begins in discomfort: confronting old stories, honoring multiple truths at once, and learning to communicate with honesty even when it feels vulnerable. George speaks candidly about the complexities surrounding 7th Heaven's legacy, while also sharing the profound lessons, deep relationships, and unexpected turning points that shaped him long after the cameras stopped rolling. This episode is not just a look back it's a powerful study in resilience, identity, and the lifelong work of becoming who you are. Emotional, reflective, and disarmingly real, this conversation invites listeners to rethink how they define success, connection, and what it truly means to grow.Want to start your own podcast, grow your show, or get featured as a guest? Let's map it out together.

On this episode of She Rises...We’re talking about the emotion no one wants to admit: *jealousy.*The kind that shows up quietly in your friendships, relationships, or while scrolling social media. Instead of judging it, we’re normalising it. We dive into how to recognise jealousy as a mirror, not a flaw… and use it to understand what you truly desire. This episode will help you stop hiding it, start healing it, and turn comparison into clarity, power, and growth.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this special episode, Kevin Berry sits down with Kerri Raissian, Senior Research Scientist at the Yale School of Public Health, Kenny Barlow from Regal Products, and WTTA founder Mike Sodini to recap a week that moved the conversation forward in meaningful ways. The National Research Conference for the Prevention of Firearm-Related Harms brought together researchers, public health leaders, industry partners, clinicians, and advocates who all share a common goal. Reduce negative outcomes and save lives.For the first time, WTTA and the ROOTS initiative were represented on the exhibitor floor. The response was overwhelmingly positive. Attendees were curious, supportive, and eager to learn how voluntary secure storage, mental health tools, and trusted community partnerships fit into the broader prevention landscape. Our team heard again and again how important it was to have firearm owners and industry voices present, willing to listen and willing to engage in good faith.In this conversation, we break down key themes from the conference, share insights from panels and hallway conversations, and talk about what it means when different perspectives finally have a chance to connect. This episode highlights why cultural understanding matters, what ROOTS is building, and how collaborations across disciplines can create practical, real-world solutions that help families, communities, and firearm owners.Send us a text Walk the Talk America would like to thank our partners who make these conversations possible and want to highlight our top two partner tiers below!

Have you ever reached a point where the answers you’re given simply stop feeling right? Where you realize that trusting your own instincts might be the only way forward. For Piper, that moment came in a doctor’s office when she was told her son just needed a spanking. Something inside her knew that wasn’t true. What followed was a full transformation born from love and determination. She went back to school, relearned what she thought she knew about health, and built a life that would help not only her son but hundreds of other families too. Along the way, she found her own healing in the process. This conversation is about listening to that quiet voice inside you. It’s about the courage to question what you’ve been told and the hope that grows when you refuse to give up. Take your time with this one. It is gentle and full of heart. What You’ll Hear A mother’s turning point after harmful medical advice How childhood trauma shaped a life built on self-reliance Discovering purpose in the middle of fear and uncertainty The surprising ways healing her son led to her own transformation The strength found in trusting intuition over authority How sharing one story can light the way for others Guest Bio Dr. Piper Gibson founded the Tic Disorder Institute: Regenerating Health and Elite Gene Labs, where she empowers families and healthcare professionals to address tic disorders and optimize wellness. She is a Doctor of Functional Medicine, Advanced Holistic Nutrition, and a Board-Certified Doctor of Natural Medicine. She is also the author of Tic Talk: Common Misconceptions, Natural Approaches, and Real Conversations about Tic Disorders.

The conversation began, as many of mine do, with a topic I think we already understand.  This time it was influencer marketing. But before I could even roll my eyes at another mention of hashtags and brand deals, the discussion took a sharp turn toward something far more interesting: trust, storytelling, and what it really means to build relationships in a digital world that doesn't trust much anymore. That shift came courtesy of Sarah Stahl, co-founder of Market Movers. She's knee-deep in the world where AI, marketing, and hospitality overlap—a place where the glossy brand voice is fading fast, and authentic creators are taking the spotlight. Listening to her, I realized this isn't just about influencers. It's about how we all show up as marketers. What Makes a Good Creator Partnership Sarah's approach to creators feels refreshingly human. She doesn't chase follower counts; she looks for people who know how to build relationships. She compares choosing a creator to hiring an employee—sometimes you think you've found “the one,” and then day one tells a different story. That hit home for me. I've hired those “perfect” people before too, only to realize the chemistry wasn't there. Her advice? Start small, watch how they work, and build from there. The Power of Storytelling We talked about how hard it is to sell something you can't touch or taste online. Think about restaurants—how do you market flavor through a screen? The best creators don't just post photos; they tell stories that make people feel the experience. Sarah shared a beautiful story about one of her creators who found healing while working on a campaign. That moment of real emotion became part of the brand story—and honestly, that's the kind of marketing that stays with people. When Things Go Sideways At some point, every brand faces it: a creator says something that doesn't quite fit. My instinct as a business owner is to cringe, but Sarah made me pause. “Perfection breeds mistrust,” she said. And she's right. People don't expect flawless; they expect real. When something uncomfortable happens, it's an opportunity to step into the conversation—not hide from it. The New Rules of Visibility Sarah also made a point that stopped me in my tracks. AI tools like ChatGPT aren't pulling most of their information from your shiny website—they're pulling from stories. Creator content, real conversations, reviews. If your brand isn't in that mix, you're invisible. That's a wake-up call for every business owner clinging to the “if we build it, they will come” mindset. Key Takeaways • Build trust first. Pick creators who care more about their audience than their follower count. • Find your storytellers. The ones who can make your product or service feel real. • Don't panic over imperfection. Use it as a chance to connect, not retreat. • Invest in the relationship. The best results come from creators who grow with you. • Stay part of the conversation. The future of search and AI belongs to brands that keep showing up authentically. Influencer marketing isn't about trends or chasing the next viral post. It's about people—real voices telling real stories. And if you treat it that way, marketing starts to feel a whole lot less like work and a whole lot more like a conversation. And if that sounds a little too simple—good. Because simple usually works.   About Sarah Stahl Sarah Stahl, co-founder of Market Movers lives at the intersection of AI marketing and hospitality. If you've ever wondered how to turn “just another rental” into a brand guests remember (and actually book direct), that's my sweet spot. I'm obsessed with helping property owners cut through the noise, escape OTA dependence, and build systems that truly sell themselves. These days, I'm 100% focused on agentic search and direct booking strategies because the future of hospitality marketing isn't about chasing algorithms, it's about building brands guests can't forget. Always creative, always candid—that's me. Want to learn more  Go to :  https://sarahstahl.com/

Another rooftop sniper has fired into an ICE facility in Dallas. The truth is not on the news. Copycat situation? Anti ICE? Were hit men hit? Self proclaimed journalists do very little work. Three detainees killed, no ICE injured. The rhetoric is dense. Remedial responses. Make it make sense. Are we normalizing violence against ICE? Nobody is calling out the left. This tells us a lot. Controlling information is worse than censorship. The Hoft brothers and Media Matters know what's happening. Flames are getting fanned. Narratives are faster than facts. One candidate is campaigning positively on the riots. They say death to those who disagree. Routh trained in Poland, and went to Hong Kong in 2019. Let's discuss his lawyer wife. The UN bends optics and shows fragility. Cheering an escalator. There is no safe distance from violence. Why is the right justifying it? Corruption eats our foundation. Fury without direction feeds the fire. Not clumsy, surgical. Rhetoric is moving to action. Manufactured narratives become dominant. Don't be an unpaid amplifier. Consume media slowly and protect the center. Facts first, action second. Election software since the 90's. Our secret weapon is the truth. And they do not own the people.

Send us a textPiper Gibson is a Doctor of Functional Medicine; the Founder of the Tic Disorder Institute: Regenerating Health; and the author of Tic Talk: Common Misconceptions, Natural Approaches, and Real Conversations about Tic Disorders. Piper is on a mission to counter the narrative that we should ignore kids' motor or vocal tics and hope that they grow out them. Instead, as she and I discuss, Piper argues – and has the research to back it up – that the experiences of kids with tics can be vastly improved by addressing how they are affected by biological factors, environmental conditions, emotions, and physical fitness. More information about Piper, the Tic Disorder Institute, and her book is at talkingaboutkids.com.

In this episode, Justin and Jackie delve into the often-taboo topic of suicidality, discussing its prevalence, the stigma surrounding it, and the importance of open conversations. They share personal experiences and emphasize the need for empathy, connection, and understanding in addressing mental health issues. The conversation also covers practical strategies for managing suicidal thoughts, including the use of safety plans and coping mechanisms, while highlighting the importance of dignity and respect in mental health care.

Over and over again, I've witnessed the power of a single conversation. Sometimes it happens over the course of an hour or more. Other times, it happens in less than twelve minutes. That's what you'll hear in this episode. Recently, I joined my friend Ray Edwards during one of his live streams. We had no plan for what we would talk about. He invited me into the conversation, and within moments he asked me a simple but profound question: “Cliff, how do you discover limiting beliefs?” That question opened the door to a live demonstration of the exact process I use with my clients when we're dismantling the lies that hold them back. In this episode, you'll hear me walk Ray through the four steps required to completely destroy limiting beliefs: Become consciously aware of the limiting belief that's holding you back. Determine the source of that belief so you can see it was never really yours. Create an empowering alternative belief that aligns with who you truly are. Condition that new belief until it becomes your default way of seeing and experiencing the world. With Ray, we didn't just talk theory. We discovered four limiting beliefs in real time. Beliefs that were keeping him from stepping back into his calling of speaking and traveling. Together, we exposed them, reframed them, and replaced them with empowering alternatives. By the end of the conversation, Ray went from: “I'm embarrassed and afraid I'll be too weak to speak.” to “I want to go. I want to speak. Let me at 'em!” And all of that happened in under twelve minutes. This is the power of awareness, truth, and presence. But we didn't stop there. After the conversation, I took the transcript and turned it into a song. It's what I call a Soul Song. Instead of using affirmations in a document that are easy to set aside, I now condition my empowering beliefs through music. Songs created directly from the conversations where the shift took place. You'll hear that song in this episode as well. It's a living reminder that even in trembling, even in weakness, there is profound strength. Here's my hope for you as you listen: You'll see yourself in Ray's story. You'll recognize the limiting beliefs that may be silently dictating your choices. You'll realize that you don't have to keep agreeing with them. I'll also share with you the exact five journal questions you can use right now to uncover your own limiting beliefs and begin dismantling them. Because sometimes, one powerful conversation is all it takes to change everything. If this resonates with you and you'd like to experience a conversation like this for yourself, send me an email at Cliff@CliffRavenscraft.com with the subject line: A Single Conversation. I look forward to hearing from you. Cliff The Five Questions What is it that you want to experience in life that you are not currently experiencing? What is one or two things that you already know that you could do to get you closer to living that experience? Why have you not already done this/these things? (Each answer is an excuse (aka Limiting Belief) What is one or two things that you know you already need to stop doing that would get you closer to living that experience? Why have you not already stopped doing this/these things? (Each answer is an excuse (aka Limiting Belief) Lyrics To The Song: The Miracle Breaking Through [Verse 1]I thought the stage required perfection,A flawless voice, a steady hand.But even trembling holds a message,A deeper truth than I had planned. [Chorus]This is strength: to rise while shaking.This is power: to speak through pain.Like David Ring, like Nick before me,My brokenness becomes the flame.Even if my body falters,Even if my words are few,The bedsheet screen, the slides keep shining,And my presence still breaks through. [Verse 2]The old belief said, You're not able,Cancel now, you can't be strong.But every stutter is an anthem,Every tremor shines with song. [Chorus]This is strength: to rise while shaking.This is power: to speak through pain.Like David Ring, like Nick before me,My brokenness becomes the flame.Even if my body falters,Even if my words are few,The bedsheet screen, the slides keep shining,And my presence still breaks through. [Bridge]It's not perfection that brings the freedom,It's the courage just to be.Every tremor tells the story,Of God alive inside of me. [Final Chorus]This is strength: to rise while shaking.This is power: to speak through pain.I am not weak, I am unbroken,Every struggle speaks His name.Even if my body falters,Even if my words are few,My voice, my life, my very being Is the miracle breaking through.

Civil discourse feels harder to find every day. Last week, a prominent conservative figure was executed, and what troubled me most were the responses that followed. Not long ago, a young woman was murdered on public transportation, and the government tried to cover it up—afraid of how the public might respond. This episode isn't about reliving those events. It's about what they reveal: how quickly respectful conversation breaks down and how much we need to reengage across our differences. In Episode 315 of The Joe Martino Show, I share how we can get back to real dialogue by using the Rule of Three. My hope is to give you practical tools to talk with people you disagree with—without shouting, canceling, or walking away. If you're tired of polarization and want to know how to have healthier, more constructive conversations, this episode is for you.

In this episode of the Mob Mentality Show, Chris Lucian is joined by Amy Dredge, Will Munn, and Mike Clement to dive deep into how Open Space Technology (OST) is transforming the way engineering leaders learn, connect, and solve real-world challenges together. Whether you're a Staff+ engineer, an engineering manager, or a tech leader looking for meaningful growth, this episode uncovers how OST creates space for peer-to-peer learning that's spontaneous, high-impact, and deeply human. We explore: The Engineering Leadership Summit — what it is, why it matters, and how it's unlike traditional conferences. How Open Space Technology empowers attendees to shape their own agenda and focus on the most pressing leadership challenges. The shift from passive presentations to active conversations among experienced engineering leaders. Lessons learned from hosting and attending open space events — from hallway chats to high-trust collaboration. How tools like GatherTown help replicate the spontaneity of in-person connection in a remote world. Why this format resonates deeply with Staff+ and senior engineering leaders seeking authenticity, relevance, and practical insight. We also compare remote vs. in-person open space events, dig into accessibility, and share actionable tips for running your own internal or external open space sessions inside engineering orgs.

This week kicks off with a moment of acknowledgment for the recent school shooting, reflecting on how communities process recurring tragedies, whether the U.S. is becoming desensitized, and how media should handle coverage. Shan then takes listeners down memory lane with the upcoming Degrassi documentary, revisiting its legacy as a groundbreaking teen drama and sparking debate about whether today's shows tackle issues as authentically. The conversation continues with a look at the new Hurricane Katrina documentary, unpacking systemic racism, disaster response, and whether retelling these stories heals or exploits trauma. Music takes center stage with DJ Khaled's comeback singles: “You Remind Me” featuring dancehall icons, and “Brother” with Post Malone and NBA YoungBoy. The hosts debate which lane Khaled thrives in, the risks of sampling classics, and whether his new album can live up to the hype. Rome dives into Young Thug's snitching rumors amid his ongoing RICO trial, questioning what “snitching” even means in 2025 and whether fans are too invested in rappers' legal drama. Jab follows with news of Funk Flex's syndicated radio show ending, sparking discussion on radio's fading role in hip-hop compared to streaming. From there, the crew gets nostalgic with lyrics we sang as kids without knowing the meaning, before reviewing the Magic City documentary, weighing its balance of legacy vs. present-day culture, and debating hip-hop's ties to strip club culture. Other highlights include SeaWorld's controversial hip-hop rebrand, a quick spotlight on One MusicFest in Atlanta, and sports updates: Travis Hunter's new baby and the gold-digger discourse, plus Shilo Sanders' NFL rumors and what it means for the Sanders dynasty. The episode closes with a passionate debate on whether Aaliyah deserves the MTV Video Vanguard Award, weighing her timeless influence against icons like Missy Elliott, Beyoncé, and Rihanna.

Episode #1026 Most guys stick to surface-level friendships, talking sports, work, or the usual weekend plans. But deep down, there's a part of you that's craving more. Real connection, honest conversation, and support from other men who actually get it. In this episode, we're recording from the TPM Ranch during the Legends Event with men who've done the inner work and keep showing up for each other. We talk about what it's actually like to build friendships where you can drop the act, say what's really going on, and not get judged for it. The guys share how these bonds didn't just happen. They were built, rep by rep, by showing up even when it felt uncomfortable. If you've ever thought, “I don't have any men in my life I can talk to like this,” this one's for you. We talk about what to do when you feel isolated, how to start small, and why just taking one small risk to connect could change everything. Want to go deeper?
