Atarah Valentine joins Luis on the podcast today. They warm up talking about how we can practice self hatred, and we can practice gratitude. It's all a practice. What choices and practices have adapted you to be the person you are? Men, Atarah saw, hurt women. He did not want to hurt women. As a result he practiced hating masculinity. He evoked feminine energy emulating his grandmother who wanted to fix everything for everyone. Another woman he emulated was his mother who married abusive men attempting to fix them. "Real men wear white socks" he was told, but Atarah is not the white socks wearing type. So he shrank, "apologized with [his] shoulders", and stayed small, not wanting to take up space. Until the age of 40 when he decided to embrace his power and begin training. Training, and his platonic relationship with his male trainer, helped heal his relationship to masculinity in himself and with men. The masculine parts he had been rejecting were ultimately the parts that freed him. What do you do to balance the masculine and feminine energies in yourself?

In Luke 8, Jesus meets a man everyone else had given up on and shows that nothing is too broken or too far gone for him to reclaim. We're reminded that we have a Savior who refuses to let our past, our wounds, or our brokenness have the final word. Wherever you are today, there is hope—because Jesus is still rewriting stories.To support this ministry and help us continue our God given mission, click here: http://bit.ly/2NZkdrCSupport the show

What happens when the life you built suddenly feels like a lie?
What if your biggest obstacle was your own reflection?
In this episode, I sit down with Patrick House, who's lived with type 1 diabetes for 35 years and came to coaching feeling completely burnt out. He opens up about rebuilding trust with his body, shifting from self-blame to self-compassion, and how a late ADHD diagnosis changed everything. Let's be honest… we don't hear enough male voices talking about type 1 diabetes, burnout, or what it actually looks like to heal from the inside out, and Patrick's story proves something I want everyone listening to hear. If you're looking for a sign to ask for help, here it is:
In this episode, Sarah sits down with Phoenix, a Career Strategy Lab (CSL) member who shares what it's like to be in the middle of their UX job search transformation.Phoenix opens up about the identity crisis that came from trying to be what companies wanted and how shifting toward a product-thinking approach—treating their career like a system—led to clarity, confidence, and traction. This is a must-listen for any UX or product professional feeling stuck, unfocused, or uncertain about how to move forward in today's job market.You'll hear Phoenix share the exact moment things started to click, the biggest mindset shifts since joining CSL, and how things like a simple resume rewrite not only clarified their value—but also unlocked a potential $20K salary bump.Whether you're pivoting into UX, climbing toward leadership, or simply tired of second-guessing yourself, Phoenix's story will help you see what's possible when you stop trying to be someone you're not and start owning what you bring to the table.What You'll Learn in This Episode:✔️ How Phoenix went from feeling irrelevant to in control of their UX career✔️ Why “conforming” to what employers want actually backfires—and what to do instead✔️ The power of the compass statement and how it transforms resumes, portfolios, and interviews✔️ How systems thinking applies to both UX and job search strategy✔️ The emotional journey of building a personal brand that reflects your true strengths✔️ Why clarity is more powerful than pep talks when it comes to confidenceTimestamps:00:00 Introduction to Career Strategy Lab00:38 Episode Overview and Open House Context01:22 Q&A with Phoenix: UX Job Search Insights03:59 Phoenix's Journey: From Uncertainty to Clarity07:33 The Power of a Strong Resume and Compass Statement20:04 Emotional Impact and Personal Growth24:19 Advice for Job Seekers and Final Thoughts

What happens when the people you depend on most dismiss your pain? Shigeko Ito grew up in Japan in an affluent but emotionally detached family, carrying an invisible loneliness that shaped her every step. At sixteen, she tasted what family could feel like during a summer with a nurturing American host family, but that contrast only deepened her existential crisis once she returned home. When a brother’s betrayal led her to wake up in a mental hospital, she began a long journey through silence, stigma, and survival. In this conversation, Shigeko shares how she slowly found her way toward healing, compassion, and truth telling. She also reflects on what it means to break generational cycles and how her memoir became both an act of defiance and a gift of service. What you’ll hear in this episode: How childhood neglect in a “perfect” family can quietly shape a child’s nervous system The life-altering moment of waking up in a mental hospital Why self compassion and storytelling became her path to resilience Listen, share, and subscribe at www.thelifeshiftpodcast.com/follow.

Brodie Neill is a Tasmanian-born but London-based furniture designer, who has made a name for himself by creating pieces from waste and reclaimed materials. In 2016, for example, he represented Australia at the inaugural London Design Biennale with his exhibition entitled, Plastic Effects. In it, he showcased the Gyro Table, with a top made of fragments of recycled ocean plastic that had been salvaged from beaches in places like Hawaii and Cornwall. Over the years, his furniture pieces have been made from dowels, reclaimed school floors, and wood found in some extraordinary places. He has also collaborated with brands such as Microsoft, Mercedes-Benz and Alexander McQueen, while his limited edition works feature in museums and galleries around the globe. In this episode, we talk about: why he found himself in the Antarctic earlier this year; sharing a ship with over 30 scientists; the new work that is emerging from the 'adventure of a lifetime'; how finding plastic on a Tasmanian beach proved a pivotal moment in his career; creating the iconic Gyro Table; how he collects ocean plastic; creating high end products from ‘underwater' wood and old school floors; unleashing ‘material potential'; inheriting his grandfather's tools; day dreaming at school; and why he needs to be near making. And remember the inaugural Assemble with Material Matters takes place on 20 November at the Bank of England Conference Centre. Tickets cost £175 (+ VAT) and are officially available until 6 November.

Today I'm honoured to be speaking with Vicki Noble, author, scholar, teacher, artist, mother, and one of the true pioneers of modern feminist spirituality. Vicki is best known as the co-creator of the Motherpeace Tarot, the first feminist deck of its kind. For more than 40 years, Vicki has been a leading voice in the study and revival of the ancient feminine mysteries. Teaching about the Dakini, the dark goddess, the cycles of the moon, and the sacred dimensions of menstruation, birth, sexuality, and transformation. She's written extensively about the ways patriarchal culture has severed us from these mysteries and what happens to our bodies, our psyches, and our planet when the feminine is suppressed, shamed, and forgotten. In this conversation, we're descending into that underworld space. The shadow realms where the feminine has long been buried or silenced. We'll talk about menstrual shame and how women have internalized centuries of denial around the natural power of their cycles. We'll explore the Dakini archetype, fierce, erotic, untamed, and utterly truthful as a guide for personal and collective transformation. And we discuss what it means to reclaim the dark as sacred, the bleeding time. Vicki Noble is a visionary teacher, author and co-creator of the Motherpiece Tarot. She's based in Santa Cruz and has spent over four decades reviving the ancient feminine mysteries from the Dakini and the dark goddess to the healing power of menstruation and cyclic living. Today she shares her wisdom with us and why she believes the dark goddess holds the keys to our healing and transformation, personally and collectively.

Leticia Racine calls herself a “Returning Warrior” of the Sixties Scoop. As a child, she was at the centre of a landmark Supreme Court case that paved the way for Indigenous children to be adopted into non-Indigenous homes. Judges ruled that Leticia's foster parents could adopt her, and suggested her connections to her Indigenous mother and their heritage were likely to “abate” over time." IDEAS producer Dawna Dingwall explores how Leticia —and other adoptees — found their way back to the families, communities and culture — that never really left them.Dawna shares Leticia's story and this precedent court case on the CBC podcast, See You in Court.

This week at 2Rivers, we wrapped up our Joy Reclaimed series with an encouraging reminder that joy isn't something we earn or fake. It's a fruit of the Spirit that grows as we walk closely with Jesus — even in the middle of worry, stress, or uncertainty.In this message, Pastor Ron Cathcart walks through Philippians 4:4–9, showing us how to rejoice in all things, worry about no things, pray about everything, think about the right things, and focus on the King of Kings. It's a timely word for anyone who's felt the weight of anxiety or the pull of fear and longs to experience the peace of God again.If you've been searching for real, lasting joy, this one's for you. Lean in and be encouraged — the Lord is near.
We're kicking off our new series, David Lynch: Between Two Worlds, where we explore the dream logic, fractured identities, and spiritual mysteries of Lynch's later career — beginning with his polarizing Twin Peaks prequel, FIRE WALK WITH ME. In this first of our two-part deep dive, we explore how Lynch returned to Twin Peaks after its cancellation — and how his original vision for a Twin Peaks movie evolved into something far darker and more personal. We'll track the story from the series' troubled end through the film's early development, the departure of co-creator Mark Frost, the decision to center Laura Palmer's final days, and the winding, often surreal path the script took. We also dive into Lynch's inspiration, his collaboration with new and returning cast members, and the emotional weight of revisiting the trauma at the heart of the original series — this time from Laura's perspective.

What's weighing down your joy?In Philippians 3, Paul invites us to a joy deeper than fleeting happiness, one that's rooted in releasing burdens never meant for us to carry.In this message, Pastor Nick Tallo continues our Joy Reclaimed series with “Joy in the Release.” From the image of a backpacking trip to the power of surrender, we discover that joy blossoms when we let go of the weight of performance, fame, and our past. Paul, writing from a prison cell, urges us to “rejoice in the Lord” (Philippians 3:1). This isn't about ignoring life's challenges—it's about finding a settled confidence in Christ that transcends every circumstance.Key Takeaways:Release Performance-Based Living – Paul warns against putting confidence in human effort, reminding us that salvation is by grace through faith, not works (Ephesians 2:8-9). True joy comes when we stop striving to earn God's love and rest in what He's already done.Release Past Achievements and Failures – Paul considers his past accomplishments “loss” compared to knowing Christ (Philippians 3:8). Whether it's victories or regrets, clinging to the past weighs us down. Joy comes when we press forward into what lies ahead.Embrace God's Purpose – Joy is found in living out God's grace and purpose—making Him known in every facet of life (Philippians 3:14). When we release our own plans and embrace His, we step into the freedom of true joy.If you've been carrying the weight of performance, control, or comparison, this message is a call to let go. Because until you release what doesn't last, you'll never experience the joy that does.Scripture: Philippians 3Series: Joy Reclaimed (Week 3 – “Joy in the Release”)Speaker: Pastor Nick2Rivers Church#JoyReclaimed #Philippians3 #2RiversChurch #JoyInChrist #FaithOverPerformance

I'm so thankful for this conversation with Stephanie Broersma about her brand-new resource: Reclaimed: A Course to Guide You Through Betrayal and Infidelity Trauma. This powerful resource is designed for those walking through the trauma of betrayal, offering hope, healing, and a path forward. In our conversation, Stephanie shares how the course helps you stay connected to the Lord in the midst of grief, while also providing practical next steps and long-term rhythms to move toward restoration. She reminds us that your spouse's decisions do not define your worth and that there is a real enemy fighting against both your marriage and your identity in Christ. If you've been hurting, this conversation will point you back to truth, hope, and healing. Episode Highlights: What fires together, wires together. You have options when triggers begin to surface. Triggers don't equate to a lack of forgiveness. There's no need to rush. Give yourself time to get your emotions regulated before making a major decision. Allow the Lord the space to work in the midst of the grief and in the midst of the stillness and heaviness. Quotes from Today's Episode: Give yourself time to grieve and heal the right way. -Dr. Kim God designed emotions to inform us about our world. They are not bad. They give us language to express what we are feeling.- Stephanie Triggers point you to an experienced trauma in your life and then you have an option. You have a choice. What am I going to do with this trigger?-Stephanie As you heal, the triggers become less damaging. -Dr. Kim Sexual addiction, at its deepest level, is a spiritual issue. A disorder of worship, not to God but to self.- Stephanie Healing does not happen in isolation. You are not meant to be alone in this journey.-Stephanie Forgiveness is a posture of surrender that says, 'I can't fix him. I don't want to fix him.'- Stephanie Your spouse does not define you or your future. As long as God leaves, as long as you get that breath, God's got a plan for you.- Dr. Kim If you're going to get healthy, there has to be boundaries in place. And they have to be consistent.- Dr. Kim Hope chooses faith even in the mess. Questions for Reflection: In what ways have you been tempted to let someone else's choices define your worth, and how can you replace those lies with God's truth about your identity? What is one practical rhythm you can begin this week to stay connected to the Lord as you process pain or grief? How can you recognize the enemy's attempts to attack your marriage or identity, and what steps can you take to guard against them?

I grew up hearing one story: your fertility drops off a cliff at 35. That belief drove me into panic — until I started asking questions.

If timelines have you anxious, if you feel pressured by culture or partners, or if you want practical ways to support your fertility without shame — watch this.
Kelly's insomnia began after the birth of her first child. Sleepless nights quickly turned into panic-filled evenings, anxious days, and a desperate search for fixes that only made things worse. Her turning point came when she realized it wasn't her body that was broken, but the exhausting fight with sleep and her thoughts. By loosening her grip, letting go of rituals, and meeting thoughts with openness, she began to live more freely. When insomnia returned during pregnancy, Kelly chose acceptance over fear. Instead of battling sleepless nights, she allowed them to unfold. The fear eased, sleep returned naturally, and today her life is no longer defined by insomnia. Watch/listen to this episode
In this episode, we break down the strategic urgency of reclaiming Bagram Air Base in Afghanistan. Far from a full-scale invasion, modern technology and drone capabilities make retaking this critical base a precise operation—key for countering terrorist training camps and projecting power across the Middle East and beyond. We explore how the previous Biden administration's withdrawal left the base in the hands of the Taliban and China, the implications for Al Qaeda and emerging terror networks, and why Trump sees Bagram as a linchpin for future operations against Iran's nuclear program. From border security to global military strategy, this episode examines why “doing nothing” is not an option—and how modern warfare changes the game.
In this episode of the Innovative Church Leaders podcast, Dr. Eric Bryant interviews Andy Steiger, founder of Apologetics Canada. Andy shares about the role of love in apologetics, the need for moral character in church leadership, and humanizing the gospel in a dehumanized world
This week, Pastor Joe continues our sermon series called Faith Reclaimed by turning 1 Timothy 2:1-7 and inviting us to reframe prayer. How might prayer become the practice by which we confront injustice? What if prayer became the discipline by which we resist empire?
Do you find yourself chasing happiness but still coming up empty when life gets hard? Happiness is a temporary emotional state, easily swayed by circumstances, events, or experiences. It can be sweet—but it's fleeting. Joy, on the other hand, is far deeper. It's a steady, abiding sense of well-being and contentment rooted in a relationship with God. Unlike happiness, joy transcends circumstances, sustains us through trials, and overflows in worship and gratitude.In our new series, "Joy Reclaimed," we're walking through the book of Philippians to uncover how to experience joy that endures, even in the hardest seasons. Written from a jail cell, the Apostle Paul shows us the stark contrast between temporary happiness and lasting joy in Christ. Facing possible death, Paul demonstrates that true joy doesn't depend on what's happening around us but on who we belong to.In this message, Pastor Ron Cathcart will help us explore:The difference between fleeting happiness and biblical joy.Why circumstances don't get to define our joy (Philippians 1:12–14).How God can use adversity to bring about surprising outcomes (Philippians 1:15–18).The power of perspective in shaping our response to challenges (Philippians 1:19–21).The freedom and peace that flow from knowing our eternal destination (Philippians 1:22–26).At 2Rivers, our mission is to help you become a passionate follower of Jesus so you can experience the life He designed for you—and inspire others to do the same.
