Would first‑century Christians even recognize what we call "church" today? In this episode, J. Warner Wallace uses a simple "alien thought experiment" to examine how closely (or how poorly) our modern church models resemble the church described in the book of Acts. Drawing from his own journey—from walking into a megachurch as a 35‑year‑old skeptic, to serving in a mid‑sized church, to planting a home church—Jim explores where we may have drifted from the New Testament pattern and how we can realign our communities with the biblical design for gathering, mission, and discipleship. This conversation will challenge how you think about Sunday services, church size, programs, and what it really means to live as the people of God in the world today.

If you've ever felt pressure to be the "good girl," you're not the only one. Dr. Mindy has heard from thousands of women who feel exhausted by the pressure to be agreeable, accommodating, and selfless. Many women were taught that being good meant putting everyone else first. But over time, that pattern often leads to resentment, burnout, and a deep disconnection from your own voice. That's why Dr. Mindy invited writer and cultural critic Elise Loehnen to join her for this conversation. Elise is the former Chief Content Officer of goop and the New York Times bestselling author of On Our Best Behavior: The Seven Deadly Sins and the Price Women Pay to Be Good. Through her writing and podcast Pulling the Thread, Elise explores the cultural expectations that shape women's lives and how those expectations influence our relationships, emotions, and sense of identity. In this conversation, Dr. Mindy and Elise unpack the invisible rules women have been taught to live by for generations. They explore why women were conditioned to suppress emotions like anger and envy, how people-pleasing shows up in female friendships, and why learning to trust your intuition is one of the most important skills a woman can develop. In this episode, you'll learn how to: -Reconnect with your intuition and inner authority -Understand the cultural conditioning shaping women's behavior -Recognize how suppressed emotions impact your health -Navigate female friendships with more awareness -Step out of people-pleasing patterns -Reclaim your voice and authenticity For any woman who feels like she has been living by expectations that don't truly belong to her, this conversation offers a new perspective. It helps you understand where those patterns came from and how to begin trusting yourself again.

Hey Team! This week I've got Cate Osborn and Erik Gude on the show. Cate, known online as Catieosaurus, holds an M.Ed and uses her background in research and sex education to help neurodivergent folks navigate relationships and communication. Erik, known online as HeyGude, is an advocate and speaker who uses his platform to destigmatize the messy internal monologue of the ADHD brain. Honestly, it almost feels like I don't need to introduce these two given everything they've produced; they are definitely an online powerhouses. I've been a fan of their podcast, Catie and Erik's Infinite Quest: An ADHD Adventure, for quite a while now. So I imagine you've probably seen at least something from them. And they've spent the last few years distilling their combined experiences into a new book designed to act as a foundational knowledge base for neurodivergent adults. The book The ADHD Field Guide for Adults was a ton of fun to read; it's written in an incredibly ADHD-friendly manner, and I really appreciated the approach, making this a book for adults where I don't feel like I'm being talked down to. So in the episode, we're definitely talking about the book, but we go into a ton of different topics. We talk about the "systems-first" approach to ADHD management. We break down the precision of language and why understanding that distinction matters. And a whole lot more, there's just a ton of stuff in this episode. Check out The ADHD Field Guide for Adults which is available in hardcover, e-book, and as an audiobook narrated by the authors Cate and Erik. Visit Catieosaurus.com for information on Cate's national tour, "Wildly Unprepared," and upcoming book signing events.

Shame is an unchangeable dead end, but guilt is a "window for change" that allows you to acknowledge a behavior, such as being late or having a messy car, without condemning your entire identity. Recognize that "defeat" is often more comfortable than "failure" because defeat asks nothing of you; it simply means the game is over. Overcoming ADHD difficulties requires a healthy relationship with failure. Try viewing failure as a data point for "dissecting the system" rather than a reason to just stop trying. Many ADHD systems fail because they are built to satisfy "residual gook" from childhood. We often have internalized rules about how things "should" be done, like folding socks or separating silverware that have no basis beyond that it's just how we've always done it. Audit your tasks to see if you actually care about the result; if you don't, dismantling the expectation (like using bins instead of folding laundry) can remove the cognitive load of a performance you don't actually value.

The Titanic was called unsinkable…until it wasn't. They had room for luxury… but not enough room for lives.In Matthew 24, Jesus warns that judgment will come suddenly, just like in the days of Noah. The problem isn't that we don't know danger is coming. The problem is we're not prepared to rescue.Are we more concerned with appearances than people? Have we filled our lives with so much clutter that there's no room left to save anyone?This message challenges us to: • Recognize the danger • Reject image over people • Remove the cargo that keeps us from rescuing othersA Christian life that costs nothing accomplishes nothing.
Simon Sinek drops a truth early that most people are not prepared to hear: income inequality is a greater social threat than AI or another pandemic, and history shows exactly where that kind of imbalance leads. He connects that global tension directly to what is happening inside your own relationships, because the same failure to listen, the same refusal to co-create, shows up at the kitchen table and in the boardroom. Simon challenges the idea that vulnerability means broadcasting your emotions online, arguing that true safety comes only when you sit across from someone you trust and say the hard thing out loud. He lays out a simple reframe for capitalism itself, one built around purpose first, people second, and profit third, and shows how that same hierarchy applies to how you show up at work and at home. Walk away from this conversation with a clearer picture of who you actually work for and why getting that answer right changes everything.

Discover why the metrics you use to measure a good day, productivity, followers, titles, are actively working against your sense of worth and what to track instead. Understand how to co-create boundaries in relationships and at work so both sides feel heard rather than managed. Recognize the social ripples that fear creates around AI and economic inequality so you can respond thoughtfully rather than react from panic. Reframe what it means to live a life of service, whether you lead a company, a team, or just show up daily for the people around you.

Paul exhorts true Christians to examine themselves before taking the Passover. What is true self-examination? Recognize what it means to truly consider your ways.
Have you ever felt restless without quite knowing why? Not deeply unhappy and not exactly burned out, just faintly dissatisfied, as though something essential were missing. That feeling may be what I call emotional hunger. In this episode, we explore why so many of us reach for quick fixes like distraction, productivity, or reassurance, only to find that the relief never quite lasts. Beneath those impulses is often a deeper unmet need — one that hasn't yet been clearly named. Drawing from personal insight and psychological frameworks, we'll look at how emotional hunger shows up in everyday life, why we often feed it substitutes, and how to recognize the signals your inner “dashboard” may be sending. By the end of this conversation, you'll learn how to identify the deeper needs beneath your habits and restlessness, and how to begin nourishing them in ways that bring genuine clarity, balance, and fulfillment.

Do friendships feel harder than they should? Do you want deeper connection… but always feel too tired, too busy, or too overwhelmed to try? Do you find yourself automatically saying no—even when part of you is longing for community? In today's episode, we continue the conversation about friendship by talking about one of the biggest barriers to real connection: our resistance to saying yes. Not because we don't care. Not because we don't want friends. But because comfort, fear, and routine quietly start making our decisions for us. We talk about: • Why adult friendships require intentional effort • How comfort culture and “protect your peace” thinking can keep us isolated • Why your default might be “no” without you realizing it • The difference between healthy boundaries and self-protection • Why deep friendships always cost something • How convenience is often the enemy of connection • What it really looks like to build community over time This episode will help you: • Recognize where you've been closing yourself off without meaning to • Understand why discomfort is part of building real relationships • Learn how to say yes without burning out • Stop waiting to be chosen and start participating • Take small, realistic steps toward deeper friendships If you've been praying for community but avoiding opportunities for it… this episode will gently challenge you. You don't need a perfect schedule. You don't need a perfect house. You don't need to feel “ready.” Sometimes the most spiritual thing you can do is say yes. love, Brittany Ready to become a peaceful wife and Mama? Sign Up for the Pain to Peace Academy HERE.

This episode will open your eyes. Because the truth is: the universe may already be trying to give you everything you want. The real question is whether you've removed the resistance to receive it.
In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Gary Miles discuss: Facing fear with clarity Owning your internal authority Focusing on the process, not the outcome Building freedom through micro-shifts Key Takeaways: Fear is common in legal careers, often hidden behind competence. Recognize that much of it is imagined, not reality. Facing it openly allows lawyers to act with clarity and confidence. Internal authority matters more than external validation. Measure success by your own standards, preparation, and effort, not by others' opinions or metrics. This mindset creates professional freedom and peace of mind. Enjoying the process improves performance more than obsessing over outcomes. Focus on preparation, relationships, and skill-building instead of constant comparison or pressure to “win.” This approach fosters growth and satisfaction. Small, practical shifts build lasting change. Replace self-critical thoughts with supportive ones, set clear boundaries, and evaluate progress by skill, enjoyment, and well-being. Over time, these micro-actions compound into meaningful professional freedom. “There's fear everywhere. Unfortunately, the reality is that we have to lean into it… We have to lean into the fear and make mistakes, and that's how we improve." — Gary Miles Check out my new show, Be That Lawyer Coaches Corner, and get the strategies I use with my clients to win more business and love your career again.

Artificial Intelligence is rapidly transforming healthcare.From symptom checkers to diagnostic algorithms and predictive analytics, AI tools are becoming more powerful every year.But can AI actually replace a rheumatologist?In this video, we explore the real role of artificial intelligence in autoimmune care and rheumatology — including:• What AI does well• Where AI falls short• Why autoimmune disease is uniquely complex• The importance of clinical judgment• Pattern recognition vs human nuance• The future of AI-assisted medicineRheumatologic conditions like:• Rheumatoid arthritis• Lupus• Psoriatic arthritis• Ankylosing spondylitisrequire more than lab interpretation. They require context, lived experience, pattern evolution, and understanding the whole patient.AI can:✔️ Analyze large datasets✔️ Recognize imaging patterns✔️ Flag abnormal labs✔️ Support clinical decision-makingBut it cannot:✖️ Replace longitudinal relationships✖️ Interpret subtle symptom evolution✖️ Understand patient goals and preferences✖️ Deliver individualized nuanceThe future likely isn't AI versus physicians.It's AI supporting physicians — while preserving the human expertise required for complex autoimmune disease.If you live with autoimmune disease or are curious about the future of medicine, this is a conversation you need to hear.
Episode overview In this episode of Investments Unplugged, hosts Kevin Headland and Macan Nia mark International Women's Day by exploring longevity through the lens of women and financial preparedness. They're joined by Director, Multi-Asset Solutions Erica Camilleri, who shares thoughts and research on why longevity risk is higher for women, how today's macroeconomic backdrop (including higher cross-asset correlations and persistent inflation) can amplify retirement risks, and what investors can do—through better planning, appropriate risk-taking, and sound advice—to reduce the odds of outliving their savings. Key topics & insights 1. Longevity risk and why it's higher for women Financial shortfall risk gap — Manulife research found that women in Canada face a higher risk of experiencing financial shortfalls in retirement than men do (34% vs. 29%). It's not just living longer — Longevity risk stems from a mix of longer (and rising) life expectancies, plus structural and social factors that can reduce lifetime savings and increase retirement vulnerability. 2. Health, wealth, and “longevity preparedness” Health and wealth are intertwined — The conversation emphasizes that longevity preparedness isn't only about financial issues; for example, poor health can worsen retirement outcomes and vice versa. New tools and frameworks — The “longevity preparedness index” is designed to measure readiness to thrive while aging in retirement and is expected to expand into Canada in coming years. 3. The role of incentives and behaviour change (and why it matters for outcomes) Incentives can drive better habits — The episode highlights research over decades indicating that specific goals outperform vague “do your best” goals and discusses how incentive-based programs can encourage healthier behaviour (and, by extension, better long-term outcomes). 4. Structural inflation is still a long-term retirement risk Inflation has moderated cyclically but remains structurally higher — Even if inflation trends toward central bank targets, the episode argues households are still living with a higher price level and that long-run inflation may settle in the mid-to-high 2% range rather than the pre-pandemic norm. Retirement math is sensitive to small inflation shifts — A modest upward shift in expected inflation (example discussed: +40 bps) can materially raise required savings/asset levels for retirement (example cited: a 30-year-old might need ~19% more assets). 5. Portfolio construction challenges: higher correlations and concentration risk Diversification is harder when correlations rise — The hosts discuss higher correlations within equities and between equities and fixed income, plus increased market concentration—factors that can make portfolios more vulnerable to shocks. Longevity risk is amplified by portfolio risk — In a “fluid” market backdrop, managing drawdowns and sequence-of-returns risk becomes more important for sustaining long retirements. 6. Mitigating longevity risk: saving earlier, compounding, and appropriate risk Start early; small changes matter — The conversation stresses the power of compounding and the outsized impact of starting earlier (even with small incremental improvements). Avoid being overly conservative — The episode argues many investors (especially in defined contribution plans) are too conservative, and that growth asset exposure is critical to reducing shortfall risk over multi-decade retirements. Rethinking retirement glidepaths — Erica explains their approach avoids a static asset allocation through retirement, allowing for more growth exposure early in retirement given retirements can last decades. 7. Advice, planning, and using the right tools (including RRSPs) Financial advice early helps — A repeated theme is that advice earlier in life helps investors understand opportunities, risks, and the need for money to last throughout retirement (and potentially leave a legacy). Tax-advantaged tools matter — The hosts reference prior discussions on RRSP benefits and how tax savings can compound and support retirement resilience. · Actionable takeaways for Canadian investors Plan for a longer retirement than you think: Build your plan around the possibility of a multi-decade retirement (the episode references retirements that could stretch to ~40 years). Don't ignore inflation in long-range assumptions: Stress-test your retirement plan for slightly higher long-term inflation; even small changes can require meaningfully higher savings. Prioritize time in the market (compounding): If you're early in your career, focus on starting now—small contribution increases made earlier can have an outsized impact later. Be deliberate about risk—not automatically conservative: Review whether your portfolio is too cautious for your horizon (including early retirement), since insufficient growth can increase shortfall risk. Diversify with today's correlation regime in mind: Recognize that diversification may be less reliable when equity/fixed income correlations rise; ensure your portfolio isn't overly concentrated in a few exposures. Use advice and tax tools to improve outcomes: Consider getting financial advice earlier and make full use of retirement vehicles (e.g., RRSPs) where appropriate to improve after-tax compounding.

His family joins him, along with people who are distressed, in debt, and discontented, forming a group of about 400 men under David's leadership. God continues protecting David by providing followers, safeguarding his parents in Moab, and sending the prophet Gad to guide him. B — Best verse to summarize the passage 1 Samuel 22:2 — This verse highlights the gathering of the distressed and discontented around David, showing how God begins forming David's leadership and protecting him through people. C — What are we called to do? Trust that God is working behind the scenes even when life seems uncertain. Follow God's direction faithfully, just as David obeyed when instructed to move. Recognize that God often gathers broken people and leads them under His righteous King.
Eckhart Tolle shares what may be the most counterintuitive truth about human suffering: the pain you feel is almost never caused by your circumstances - it comes from the mental narrative you attach to them. So many people carry a heavy identity built from past wounds, failures, and stories they've been repeating for years, never realizing they are not the story. Eckhart walks through why the ego is so deeply ingrained that even enormous suffering isn't always enough to break its hold - and why the present moment is the only place where that grip can finally loosen. He breaks down the law of attraction with unusual clarity, showing why manifesting from neediness pushes what you want further away, and why true abundance starts with appreciating what already exists around you. By the end, you'll understand why the journey itself - not the destination - is where life actually happens, and how shifting your state of consciousness right now changes everything that comes next. Eckhart's books: The Power of Now Practicing the Power of Now Stillness Speaks A New Earth In this episode you will: Discover why your psychological suffering is almost always caused by mental narratives, not by your actual circumstances, and how to separate the two in real time. Learn a simple practice for experiencing the present moment without the weight of interpretation, so you can find peace even in frustrating situations. Understand why the ego can never be satisfied by achievement or money, and what actually creates lasting fulfillment. Recognize the difference between manifesting from lack versus manifesting from fullness - and how one quietly destroys what you're trying to create. Explore what it means to know yourself beyond your personal story, so you can access the deeper dimension of consciousness that is already whole and complete.

As a highly sensitive person, you've likely done the inner work. You journal. You reflect. You reduce stimulation. You try to be self-aware and responsible with your emotions. But what if the reason you're not finding relief isn't because you're doing something wrong… it's because you're supporting the wrong system?

Ashley Rouse shares how surrender, letting go, and reinvention led to clarity and new beginnings after closing her company, Trade Street Jam Co. _____ After building a nationally recognized brand, Ashley Rouse returns to Dreams In Drive - eight years later - to share the raw truth about closing Trade Street Jam Co., embracing surrender, and stepping into new beginnings with her new creative agency Rouse Like House. A heartfelt, inspiring conversation for anyone navigating change, letting go, or finding clarity and purpose in life's next chapter. ______ In this deeply honest and full-circle conversation, Ashley Rouse (Episode 174 guest) returns eight years later to Dreams In Drive to reflect on the evolution from the woman who was scaling Trade Street Jam Co. at lightning speed to the woman she is today — one who chose surrender, healing, and alignment over external definitions of success. Ashley opens up about the circumstances surrounding and the grief of closing Trade Street Jam Co., the loss of identity that comes when your life's work ends, and the emotional and spiritual clarity that followed. She shares how motherhood and deep personal growth forced her to redefine what success, ambition, and purpose look like in this new season. Most importantly, she reframes surrender as a power move, a conscious decision to trust that releasing what no longer aligns creates space for new vision, new pathways, and a more authentic future. What We Discussed: Surrender & Purpose: Finding the courage to realize that a business is just a "tangible asset" and that her true purpose—helping other entrepreneurs—remains intact. The Realities of Running A Product-Based Business: Ashley breaks down why running a product-based CPG business is "no joke," discussing the capital intensive, inventory-heavy nature of the industry and the pressure of scaling, and seeking investors as a Black Woman The Power of Community: How sharing her "messy" journey on Instagram built a community that ultimately saved her during her transition. This conversation is for anyone who: Feels the pull toward a new beginning Is questioning a long-held dream Is learning to detach their worth from their work Is navigating a transition season You'll walk away with both the emotional language and the practical mindset shifts needed to: Recognize when it's time to move on Honor the chapter you're closing without shame Trust the unknown Rebuild from a place of clarity and self-alignment.

About Dr. John Oberg: Dr. John Oberg is a Founder, CEO, Board Director, Advisor, Professor, and Investor trusted by organizations to navigate growth, conflict, and change. He founded two Austin-based healthcare innovators: Sedera, a community-based medical cost-sharing organization (#193 on Inc 500, #26 in Financial Times Western Hemisphere), and Precina Health, a first-of-its-kind chronic care virtual medical practice and thought leader in AI deployment. He has served on the boards of OnlineMedEd and Health Admins and advises institutions, healthcare leaders, professional services firms, and nonprofits through John Oberg Advisory. John received his doctorate from the University of Southern California and his MBA from the University of New Mexico. He is an adjunct professor at USC and sits on the Board of Governors. Over three decades, he has authored patents, started companies, managed teams larger than 1,000 people, and studied the behavior of individuals, communities, and systems to catalyze improved behaviors and create best-in-class outcomes — and happier people. In this episode, Dean Newlund and Dr. John Oberg discuss: The distinction between eustress (healthy, muscle-building stress) and distress (harmful, breaking stress) Mental fatigue and the limits of cognitive processing The concept of an “emotional gas tank” and emotional capacity Radically incremental steps as a method for sustainable behavior change The role of community in motivating difficult but healthy actions Key Takeaways: Differentiate between eustress and distress and aim for muscle-building stress instead of broken-bone stress. Recognize that the brain can only process so much information and account for mental fatigue in how you work and lead. Take radically incremental steps toward change rather than attempting dramatic overhauls. Use the community as a tool to help yourself do difficult things you might avoid alone.

Selling your company isn't always a flex. Sometimes the bravest exit is walking away. If you're “fine” but your body is screaming, this episode is for you. In this episode of The Exit Whisperer, Carrie sits down with Roslyn McLarty, co-founder of The GIST, who left a fast-growing, funded company when burnout stopped being a vibe and started being a warning sign.We get into the unsexy truth founders don't post: the eye twitch, the dread, the “take a long weekend” advice that solves nothing, and the moment you realize it's not just hard — it's misaligned. Roslyn breaks down what burnout actually is (a chronically activated nervous system), how to tell “push through” from “get out,” and why chasing outcomes (revenue, valuation, the headline) is the fastest route to losing yourself.02:19 Meet Roslyn McLarty04:18 Building The GIST From Scratch05:08 Why Fundraising Was an Uphill Battle07:24 Role Misalignment: The Silent Burnout Trigger12:41 Hitting Burnout — And Finally Stopping19:56 The Inner Critic That Won't Shut Up20:16 How Burnout Warps Business Decisions21:22 The Emotional Whiplash of Leaving Your Company22:19 Processing Grief, Relief, and Identity Loss24:25 Finding Alignment After the Exit26:16 Rebuilding Without Burning Out Again29:50 How to Recognize and Regulate Burnout33:44 What Every Founder Needs to Hear
Money isn't just math and for most entrepreneurs, it never has been. In this episode, Brian Thompson continues the budgeting series with part two: acceptance. Building on the awareness foundation laid in the first episode, Brian explores the emotional side of budgeting and why looking at your numbers without shame or judgment is just as important as looking at them at all. Why Financial Acceptance Is the Missing Piece Once you have your numbers, you're naturally going to have feelings about them. Money is tied to your upbringing, your fears, your identity, and your sense of security. Brian sees it constantly in his client work: people come to meetings with shame, and leave relieved when they don't get one. So many entrepreneurs carry money baggage — internalized messages from family, society, and past financial mistakes. The inner critic says you should have started sooner, charged more, or be further along by now. Acceptance means pausing that voice and recognizing that wherever you're starting from is exactly the right place to begin. Five Money Mindset Shifts to Practice Brian outlines five concrete shifts to help entrepreneurs face their finances with curiosity and compassion instead of guilt and defensiveness. Replace judgment with curiosity. Instead of shaming yourself for a spending decision, ask what was going on in your life or business that made it feel necessary at the time. Recognize your defensiveness. Money touches on security and identity, so defensiveness is normal, but it can keep you from learning. When you notice it, pause and breathe. Know your money story. What did you learn about money growing up? What beliefs are you still carrying that may no longer serve you? Bringing them into the light is the first step to releasing them. Practice self-compassion. Would you talk to a friend the way you talk to yourself about money? Probably not. Give yourself the same grace. Remember that facing it doesn't require shame, just courage and kindness. You can't change what you don't face, but you don't have to face it harshly. The Power of Finally Exhaling Some of Brian's most meaningful client moments happen in budget sessions. Not because the numbers are great, but because clients finally feel seen and understood. Some have broken down in tears, not from devastation, but from relief. The fear and avoidance they'd been carrying for years turns out to be heavier than the numbers themselves. As Brian puts it, you can't build something beautiful on a foundation of shame. But when you accept where you are, you give yourself a place to stand. Your Action Step This week, set aside time to journal on one or more of these questions: What emotions come up when I look at my finances? What messages about money did I carry growing up? What would it feel like to release judgment? You don't have to have all the answers, you just need to be honest. If you want to share a reflection, Brian welcomes DMs on Instagram at @BTFinancial. Next episode, the series moves into action: taking your awareness and acceptance and turning them into intentional, strategic decisions.

Ronn Nicolli sat in a nearly empty Wynn on Christmas night in 2005 no retail open, barely a soul on the casino floor and watched that same property become so packed 20 years later that his family stood in line 45 minutes for an ice cream cone. That contrast, he says, is the entire lesson of what brand integrity, follow-through, and knowing who you are can build over time. The CMO and Chief Experience Officer of the Meruelo Group, overseeing the Sahara Las Vegas, Grand Sierra Resort, three radio stations, two Latin TV networks, and a portfolio of businesses that spans well beyond hospitality, Ronn has spent 25 years climbing from a college grad passing out flyers on the Las Vegas Strip to one of the most respected marketing executives in the city. But the real story isn't the title. It's every decision he made along the way to earn the right to be in the room. He opens up about leaving Resort World after six years when he had planned on ten, the moment he realized staying too long in the wrong fit is just as damaging as quitting too early, and why his new role at the Meruelo Group was the only offer compelling enough to make him say yes. He also gets honest about envy, resentment, and the self-reflection it took to finally put those things down and what it felt like to feel alive in his career again. Whether you're a marketer trying to get your ideas off the whiteboard, a leader figuring out how to build a culture people don't want to leave, or someone standing at a crossroads deciding if it's time to make a move, this conversation will hit different. In this episode you will: Understand why the gap between a good marketer and a great one comes down to operationalizing ideas, not just having them Learn how to walk into any executive meeting having already anticipated the rebuttal Discover why "no" takes zero effort and what it costs you every time you take the easy way out Recognize the difference between people who aren't growing and people who are genuinely happy — and why mistaking one for the other is a leadership trap Apply Ronn's framework for knowing when a fit has run its course before it starts costing you everything
Have you ever considered that some of the beliefs shaping your life… aren't actually true?Most of us didn't choose “lies” on purpose. They formed slowly—through words spoken over us, painful experiences, and moments when we were just trying to make sense of life. But those beliefs don't just affect how we think… they shape how we live.In this podcast, I'll help you:Recognize the lies you may be believing about yourself, God, others, and lifeSee two primary ways lies get exposed (God's revelation + people's truth)Learn a simple pathway to overturn them: humility, teachability, God's perspective, honest friendships, and wise mentorsBecause the good news is real: the lies you learned can be unlearned.Fruitfulness follows clarity—and clarity begins when truth replaces false agreements.Reflection questions:What false perspective is God addressing in you right now?What are you doing to respond to it?Who have you invited to speak truth into your life?What might God be surfacing “under the surface” that needs action?__________________________You can connect with Coach Tom at:https://greaterformation.com/Email: Tom@GreaterFormation.com P.S. ...

Shaun White admits that losing at the 2014 Sochi Olympics had nothing to do with his body and everything to do with his heart not being in it. That honest reckoning launched a years-long process of rebuilding from the inside out, patching broken relationships, ditching a fake social media persona, and assembling a team that actually shared his vision. Then a training crash in New Zealand left him with 62 stitches and lungs full of blood just months before the 2018 Olympics, forcing a gut-check question: how badly do you really want this? His answer carried him to a third gold medal and the most emotionally charged finish of his career. Whether you are chasing a world record or a business breakthrough, Shaun's approach to mental resilience, goal-setting, and self-discovery applies directly to your life.

Leslie John drops a finding that stops most people cold: couples married an average of 12 years guessed what their partner was thinking and feeling correctly only 20% of the time. That gap between how well you think you know someone and how well you actually know them is where relationships quietly break down. It's the same dynamic playing out in friendships, at work, and in families everywhere. You think you're saving people discomfort by holding back, but what you're actually doing is building a wall you can't see. Leslie walks through the science of "disclosure decisions," the hundreds of small choices you make each day about what to say and what to swallow, and what it costs you over time when the scales tip too far toward silence. Learning to share with the right people, at the right moments, with the right context isn't just good communication. It's how you build the kind of relationships that actually hold. The Greatness Playbook: The Communication Mastery Edition Leslie's book Revealing: The Underrated Power of Oversharing In this episode you will: Discover why undersharing, not oversharing, is quietly destroying your closest relationships and what the research says about the real cost of silence. Understand how "mind reading expectations" create a hidden trap in romantic relationships and learn the simple shift that breaks the cycle before resentment builds. Learn the one question that can open any conversation with a guarded partner and why leading with your own vulnerability is more powerful than finding the perfect words. Recognize how the things you leave unsaid pile up into a weight that erodes your self-respect over time and what it takes to start speaking your truth again. Apply the science of the feedback sandwich, including what the research actually found about which part matters most, so you can deliver hard truths in a way people can actually hear.
