Emily Shields dropped her kids off at school this morning—an eighth grader, a fifth grader, and a toddler—before stepping into her role as Chief Strategy Officer at OSF HealthCare. It's a balance she's perfected through years of strategic career moves and honest self-assessment about what matters most each week. Starting as a physician recruiter at OSF, Emily built relationships across the entire health system that would prove invaluable. "I worked with leadership, hospital presidents, regional leadership in all of those markets. It uniquely positioned me to build trust and confidence across the system," she reflects. The pivotal moment came when an executive sent her a simple note: "This person is retiring. You should think about this." That nudge toward the Vice President of Business Development role changed everything. "It was like something exploded in my office," Emily recalls. She seized the opportunity, moving from recruitment into mergers, acquisitions, and joint ventures—territory she'd never navigated before. "I'm definitely not afraid to say when I don't know something and to pull in a team to surround me to help," Emily shares. Under the mentorship of Michelle Conger (OSF's incoming CEO), she learned to distinguish between skills that can be taught and the innate hunger to learn that makes leaders successful. In this candid episode of Inspiring Women with Laurie McGraw, Emily also reveals: Why "mission and culture always win"—even when walking away from lucrative deals How OSF's innovation committee fast-tracks partnerships and pilots The power of being "at the right place at the right time" AND seizing the opportunity Why asking for help isn't weakness—it's strategic leadership How to think in "week chunks" when balancing career and family The critical importance of always signaling you're ready for more "You have to demonstrate you can do more than what you're currently doing. That does mean taking on projects outside your official job duties—that's how other people know you're capable," Emily advises. Now overseeing marketing, planning, and business development as Chief Strategy Officer, Emily is bringing previously siloed functions together to drive strategic outcomes. Her latest achievement? A 100-bed behavioral health joint venture opening next spring, addressing a critical gap where 2,000 patients were leaving the service area for psychiatric care. For women navigating their own career trajectories while raising families, Emily's message is clear: "Give yourself grace. Work hard and seize those opportunities when they're in front of you. Recognize that the path you set out for yourself in your head is not the one you're gonna take." From recruiter to C-suite in one organization, while raising three children and driving multi-million dollar deals—Emily Shields proves that with the right support, strategic thinking, and self-compassion, you can build an exceptional career without trying to be perfect at everything, every week. "There are weeks where work wins, and there are weeks where being a mom wins. And that's okay."

Joined by client Dustin (sales manager at a cooperative), certified coaches Melisa and Denise, and the Momentum leadership team, this conversation unpacks how to align teams, foster accountability, and drive adoption of new technologies.The discussion moves from performance management into the heart of culture change—how clarity, communication, and intentional leadership can transform resistance into ownership.Key TakeawaysClarity Drives AdoptionNew tools like CRMs or performance reviews only work when leaders paint a crystal-clear picture of the desired future state—and connect it to why it matters.Communication Is Non-NegotiableResistance often comes from misunderstanding. Clear, repeated messaging—supported by real-life examples—helps shift attitudes from suspicion to acceptance.Accountability Creates ConfidenceFrom sales call tracking to fleet management systems, transparent accountability builds trust and empowers employees to take ownership rather than feel micromanaged.Timing and Champions MatterRolling out new processes during high-stress seasons leads to frustration. Identify “champions” inside your team who can lead by example and support peers through change.The Power of Clear GoalsImpossible, future-focused goals drive behaviors more effectively than small, incremental ones. Contrast clarifies what to pursue and what to leave behind.Notable Quotes“Nobody needs more check-the-box tasks. Tools should make people better, not just busier.” – Dustin“Communication and clarity were the best things for us—it's not about tracking people, it's about accountability for the fleet.” – Denise“When I tracked my bushels, the CRM became more than a tool—it created friendly competition that drove performance.” – Melisa“A clear goal informs what I do today—and more importantly, what I don't do today.” – Mark Jewell“Contrast is clarity. Sometimes knowing what we don't want helps us lock in on what we do.” Action StepsAudit your communication: Are you explaining not just the what, but the why behind new systems?Identify a team champion who can model and support adoption.Choose the right season for rollout—don't pile change on top of peak workload.Set clear, future-oriented goals that inspire behavior change.Recognize and celebrate wins publicly; handle resistance privately.Listen If You AreA sales manager struggling to get your team to use a CRM or new toolA leader facing pushback on cultural or process changeAn executive seeking to improve accountability without micromanagementAnyone who wants to drive performance by building clarity and buy-in

In recognition of National Hispanic Heritage Month 2025, Latina Today Podcast and Hispanic Chamber Cincinnati USA have launched Rooted Leadership / Liderazgo Arraigado, an initiative dedicated to highlighting the narratives that inspire Latino-rooted leadership, accomplishments, legacies, and lived experiences from across the United States. In an inspiring interview, Lorena Mora-Mowry engages in a conversation with Mayra Camarena, a remarkable student who embodies the essence of rooted leadership. Mayra is currently enrolled at Gateway Community & Technical College, where she is pursuing a Nursing certificate. In addition to her academic pursuits, she works as a Patient Care Assistant at St. Elizabeth's Hospital in Florence, Kentucky. During the interview, Mayra discusses her upbringing and cultural background, which have shaped her life. In 2020, she commenced her first semester in pre-medicine. Since no family member had previously pursued higher education, she was unfamiliar with scholarship opportunities and solely relied on FAFSA, securing a loan for the remaining expenses. Consequently, Mayra accumulated a debt of $50,000. Tragically, her single mother fell ill and was unable to continue working. In response to her mother's encouragement, Mayra resolved to resume her nursing studies in the fall of 2024, following a three-and-a-half-year hiatus. As the sole financial provider for her household, she must concurrently pursue full-time employment and academic commitments. Gradually, she aspires to acquire a nursing certificate while harboring aspirations of becoming a nurse practitioner, fulfilling her childhood aspiration of becoming a physician. As a member of the Latino community, Mayra advises, “Embrace your identity and heritage. Recognize the sacrifices made by others for your better life. Let this inspire your actions. Engage in activities that resonate with you, share your experiences, and educate others to the best of your abilities. Do not succumb to setbacks, as I did when I had to pause my life for a period. However, I believe that part of what it means to be Latino is to persevere and overcome challenges. Embrace your resilience and return stronger, allowing it to guide your future.” Mayra's narrative exemplifies the indomitable human spirit's capacity to overcome adversity and pursue higher education. It also demonstrates the ability to adapt and make necessary adjustments in the face of challenges. Furthermore, it underscores the profound impact and support that parents can provide during our most arduous moments.

Today I'm speaking with Edward Latimore—author of “Sober Letters to My Drunken Self”. He's a former professional boxer, and in this episode, we explore his powerful journey from growing up in the projects, his life of addiction, and how he is now living a life of sobriety, self-mastery, and success.  Edward's story is about resilience, personal accountability, and the power of writing and community as tools for healing. Before we jump in, let's talk a little bit about recovery resistance. It's a term I use to describe that feeling of rebelliousness when we hear suggestions of things we could do for our recovery. It could be anything from journaling every morning, to spending 30 minutes meditating, letting go of toxic relationships, or even attending 12 step meetings, just to name a few. I actually dedicated a whole chapter in my book “The 12 Step Guide For Skeptics: Clearing Up Common Misconceptions Of A Path To Sobriety”. The truth is, we experience internal resistance for a good reason, which is ultimately rooted in our subconscious need for safety. But there comes a point when we recognize that some of our habits actually threaten our safety, like addiction, and we need to take action to change that. This is where it gets sticky. You might be aware that you need to change, so you seek answers, but actually taking action - like the exercise, meditation, self-reflection, step work, therapy etc - we balk. We get distracted. We procrastinate.  To combat this resistance, I have a few solutions listed in the book, but here's a quick 4 step process to help you close the gap between knowledge and action. Recognize that resistance or procrastination is a stress response. Try to give yourself some compassion. Practice a technique called “chunking”. Take the task at hand and break it down into tiny little steps. Commit to taking action for 2 minutes at a time Do a 3 second countdown and MOVE. Don't think, just act on that first 2 minute chunk. That's it! And chances are, once you start taking action, momentum will carry you through. If that feels helpful to you, please be sure to get a copy of my book through Amazon. It's full of mindset shifts, little bits of wisdom I've picked up over the years, and some practical suggestions on how to get and stay sober.  So without further delay, please enjoy this episode, and let me know what you think!

In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with journalist and author Alison Sher to explore how we can stay politically informed without sacrificing our mental health. Drawing from her book The Social Contagion: Viral Ideologies and the Culture War for America's Future, Alison unpacks the tension between outrage culture, biased news cycles, and our civic duty to stay engaged. The conversation dives into practical strategies for consuming news without burnout, how to navigate polarized narratives, and why curiosity and compassion are essential for respectful dialogue in today's divided world. If you've ever felt mentally drained by headlines or guilty for tuning out, this episode offers tools to reset your relationship with information and reclaim your inner balance. About the Guest   Alison Sher is a journalist, author, and cultural commentator whose work focuses on the fractures shaping modern society, from generational divides to ideological polarization. Her latest book, The Social Contagion, examines how viral media narratives influence our psychology and politics while offering a path toward neutrality, peacebuilding, and healthier civic engagement. Key Takeaways   Staying informed requires boundaries—limit news and social media intake to avoid constant adrenaline spikes. Recognize bias in reporting: tools like DeBias.me and Ground News can help expose slanted narratives. Curiosity and dialogue are more powerful than outrage; respectful listening helps integrate diverse perspectives. Engagement doesn't have to mean burnout—redefining activism to include joyful and sustainable approaches is key. Civic duty and mental health can coexist when we prioritize compassion, curiosity, and balance over constant outrage.   Connect with the Guest   Website & projects: alisonsher.com Book: The Social Contagion (available on major platforms) Want to be a guest on Healthy Mind, Healthy Life?

Big emotions are a normal part of growing up—but when those emotions start calling the shots, our girls can quickly feel overwhelmed, discouraged, and even defeated. As moms, we want to raise daughters who feel deeply while also learning that their emotions don't get to be in charge—Christ does.  In this episode, co-hosts Rachael Culpepper and Melissa Bearden explore what it means to guide our daughters through the highs and lows of anger, sadness, joy, and fear with patience, connection, and truth. You'll hear honest mom-to-mom stories, practical tools like “do-overs” and weekly check-ins, and encouragement to see emotional outbursts not as inconveniences but as discipleship opportunities.  Together, we'll unpack how to help our daughters:  Recognize that emotions are real but not ultimate truth  Move from reacting in anger to responding in the Spirit  Root their identity in Christ rather than in how they feel  Practice self-control through grace-filled parenting moments  You'll also hear the Raising Godly Girls Minute with Patti Garibay, Founder & Executive Director Emeritus of American Heritage Girls, reminding us that while anger is natural, the Holy Spirit transforms it into life-giving joy.  So, whether your daughter is slamming doors, quietly shutting down, or somewhere in between, this episode will remind you that big feelings don't make her “too much.” They make her human—and God has entrusted you to shepherd her through them with His wisdom and love.  Scripture References:  • Galatians 5:16, 19–21, 22–23  • 2 Timothy 1:7  • John 11:35    This Week's Reminders:  Big emotions don't make your daughter “bad”—they make her human. God created her with deep feelings for a purpose. Your job isn't to silence those emotions but to shepherd her through them with love, patience, and truth.   Correction is most powerful when it's paired with connection. Your daughter will grow most when she feels safe, seen, and loved—even after a meltdown. Stay close, speak truth, and don't underestimate the power of a gentle tone.   You are not alone in this—and neither is she. God is with you in every eye roll, every slammed door, and every teary moment. He's working in her heart even when you can't see it. Keep sowing seeds of Spirit-led parenting. He is faithful to grow the fruit.  Explore more resources to raise girls rooted in Christ at raisinggodlygirls.com.     To find or start an AHG Troop in your area, visit americanheritagegirls.org.

Have a message for Karena? She'd love to hear from you and share your comment or question on air!Leave Karena a voicemail: https://www.speakpipe.com/KarenaDawnWhat if the breakdown you feared was actually the doorway to your greatest sense of peace?In this transformative episode of The Big Silence, Karena sits down with #1 New York Times bestselling author, spiritual teacher, and Dear Gabby podcast host Gabby Bernstein. From uncovering repressed childhood trauma in her mid-30s to navigating postpartum depression with courage and honesty, Gabby shares the tools that helped her move from chaos to calm. She opens up about EMDR therapy, medication without shame, reparenting the inner child, and finding relief one step at a time. Whether you're in the depths of anxiety, grieving a loss, or simply craving a gentler way to heal, Gabby's wisdom offers both compassion and practical next steps.How do you combine spiritual tools and evidence-based therapy to heal trauma without shame, guilt, or overwhelm?Healing isn't about being “fixed.” It's about creating safety, awareness, and compassion so you can finally live in peace.(02:06) Naming the Why Behind PatternsSpirituality and sobriety can plant seeds, but trauma will still surface in anxiety, addiction, or control.Memory of trauma can return much later in life; healing doesn't require forcing recall.Recognizing “what happened to me” instead of “what's wrong with me” reframes the path forward.(05:09) EMDR, DemystifiedBilateral stimulation (eye movement, tapping, sounds) opens a safe “window of tolerance.”Starting with a present trigger often links back to earlier wounds.Small issues may shift quickly; deeper trauma requires more time but reduces triggers steadily.(09:02) Postpartum Depression: When Meditation Isn't EnoughSigns include panic attacks, insomnia, and suicidal thoughts. This is biochemical, not a personal failing.Antidepressants can create a baseline of safety so therapy becomes effective.Meds are not a shortcut but a foundation; Gabby paired them with three therapy sessions a week.(14:37) Grief Without GuiltApproach grief in doses: feel some, then step back before re-engaging.Notice when numbing shows up; honor it as a protective strategy.Relief through TV, rest, or joy is part of healthy grieving, not a failure.(18:51) Getting Unstuck: The 3-Question InventoryAfter each trigger, ask: 1) What triggered me? 2) What do I feel? 3) How do I run from it?Recognize patterns as protective, not personality flaws.Writing it down builds compassion and creates room for change.(20:30) Reparenting Yourself with the 4 S'sSafe: Breathwork, sleep, and grounding to calm your nervous system.Seen: Validate your wins and speak to yourself with compassion.Soothed: Make therapy and support part of your routine.Secure: Consistency builds an inner foundation of trust and resilience.(24:54) Psychedelic-Assisted Therapy: Proceed with CareShould only be done with trained clinicians under clinical guidelines.Medication conflicts exist; research protocols carefully.Curiosity is valid, but sobriety and safety must guide decisions.(28:57) Resources & Next...

What does it take to recognize you're in an abusive relationship when denial feels safer than truth? When someone finally told Tiffiny Newton she was being abused, she refused to believe it—even as her partner controlled every aspect of her life.This powerful conversation takes us through Tiffiny's journey from victim to survivor to advocate, revealing the subtle warning signs of abuse that often go unnoticed. She candidly shares how manipulation disguised as love kept her trapped in a cycle she attempted to escape five times before finally breaking free."Trauma bonding is like a tornado," Tiffany explains. "You see the destruction, you feel the destruction, but you can't pull away because of the gravitational pull." Her description of how abusers need only show kindness one day a month to maintain control illuminates why leaving becomes so difficult, especially for women in midlife already navigating identity challenges.Tiffiny has transformed her painful experience into purpose through her book "Behind the Smile," designed specifically to help loved ones support someone trapped in abuse.

As a mom navigating the chaotic world of youth sports, I'm overwhelmed by the endless apps, group chats, and logistical nightmares. Managing my kids' sports schedules feels like running a Fortune 500 company from my car, with nothing but a team hat as compensation. I've found myself drowning in multiple sports apps like TeamSnap and SportsEngine, constantly worried about missing crucial information about uniforms, practice times, and tournament availability. To maintain my sanity, I've implemented some game-changing strategies: a color-coded wall calendar, limiting group chat responses, and most importantly, delegating responsibilities to my kids. I'm teaching them to take ownership of their sports commitments, just like I did when I played sports without smartphones. The key is simplifying the chaos, staying calm, and remembering that we moms don't have to carry the entire load. We're in this together, surviving on iced coffee and the hope that someday, coaches will unite and use just one app. Tips: Otter2 minutes ago Thought for 2 seconds Here are Scottie's suggestions for managing sports chaos: Wall Calendar Strategy Get a large white erase board Color-code by kid, sport, and life activities Put everything in one visible spot Update at the beginning of each month Text Chain Management Stop replying to every group chat Catch up with parents in person at tournaments Reduce digital communication stress Delegate to Kids Have kids ask coaches about practice times Encourage kids to write their own schedules Make kids responsible for uniform preparation Let them manage team expectations Simplification Techniques Give some responsibilities to kids Ask partners to help with app management Reduce digital overwhelm Focus on personal communication Mindset Shifts Take radical responsibility for personal wellness Practice deep breathing to manage anxiety Recognize you don't have to do everything Understand that your calm is contagious to kids Practical Tips Prepare uniforms the night before Communicate directly with coaches Keep a backup of all uniforms in a bag Stay organized and proactive Learn more about your ad choices.

Have you ever noticed that when you're feeling scattered internally, your business seems to attract the most chaotic clients? I used to think this was just bad luck until I started paying attention to the pattern. Every time I was overwhelmed, saying yes when I meant no, or neglecting my own basic needs, I'd somehow magnetize clients who did the exact same thing.It turns out there's something much deeper happening than just coincidence. This episode explores the concept of energetic incongruency—how the internal conflicts we carry show up as very real challenges in our external world. We're talking about those hidden fractures between what we say we value and how we actually behave, and why these incongruencies might be the reason you keep hitting the same walls in business.BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING TO THIS EPISODE, YOU'LL DISCOVER:How incongruent messaging goes beyond just your marketing copy and why authentic communication that truly aligns with your personality is the antidote to attracting misaligned clients who treat your content like white noise.The mirror effect in client relationships and how your internal state of anxiety, impatience, or cognitive dissonance directly influences the type of people and situations you attract into your business sphere.Why recurring patterns like boundary issues, high return rates, or clients who can't follow through might not be about your business strategy at all but rather reflections of unresolved internal conflicts that need your attention first.The self-sacrifice trap that's sabotaging your success and how seemingly small acts like skipping meals, ignoring your need for rest, or being impeccable with your word creates energetic fractures that clients unconsciously pick up on and mirror back to you.And while you're here, follow us on Instagram @creativelyowned for more daily inspiration on effortlessly attracting the most aligned clients without spending hours marketing your business or chasing clients.

McKay explores the pervasive lies that shape our lives, from media misinformation to self-deception in this latest instalment of the Open Your Eyes podcast. Throughout the episode, he argues that, in an age of rampant falsehoods, developing critical thinking is essential for personal growth and success.To illustrate this, our host dissects such viral hoaxes as a fake Disney World policy change and a deceptive TikTok diet scam, showing how easily falsehoods spread. McKay also examines the profound gap between public perception and the reality of declining crime rates, revealing how political narratives can create powerful, albeit false, beliefs. Finally, he shares the inspirational journey of ballerina Misty Copeland, whose success came from rejecting the lies of her difficult circumstances and embracing the truth of her potential. Join McKay today and learn how biases and emotional responses make us vulnerable as he shares his guide to challenging limiting beliefs and seeking empowering truths.

This episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosted by Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton, takes a candid look at the hidden mental health battles many first responders fight (Amazon Affiliate) while appearing perfectly fine on the outside. The discipline, structure, and professionalism that make them effective in the field often double as masks—concealing anxiety, depression, trauma, or burnout from colleagues, family, and even themselves. Defining “High-Functioning” Struggles: How success and competence can hide serious internal distress. The difference between coping and truly healing. Why First Responders Mask Symptoms: Cultural pressure to appear unshakable. Fear of stigma, career repercussions, or losing trust. The Role of Routine in Concealment: How structure and discipline can maintain outward stability. Why routines can become a crutch instead of a lifeline. The Cumulative Toll of Silent Struggles: The long-term health risks of untreated anxiety, depression, or trauma. The emotional cost on family relationships and personal well-being. The Danger of Self-Deception: How “I'm fine” becomes a habit, even to oneself. Why high-functioning doesn't mean healthy functioning. Strategies to Recognize and Address the Issue: Normalize Conversations Around Mental Health: Peer leaders and supervisors openly sharing their own experiences. Look for Micro-Signs in Yourself and Others: Changes in sleep, irritability, withdrawal, or overworking. Encourage Early Check-Ins, Not Crisis Interventions: Making mental health maintenance as routine as physical training. Use Trusted, Confidential Resources: Peer support, vetted therapists, or off-the-record consultations. Reframe Help-Seeking as Tactical Strength: Position mental wellness as part of operational readiness. This episode is a reminder that a polished uniform and a strong performance in the field don't always mean someone is okay—and that the bravest thing a responder can do might be to take off the mask.

Ever felt like you're low-level drowning, even though everything looks “fine” on paper? That's burnout—and it doesn't show up with fireworks. It creeps in quietly until suddenly you've hit a wall and wonder: How in the heck did I get here? In this solo episode of Don't Cut Your Own Bangs (episode 2 of the Put Down the Panic: A Kind Guide to Stress mini-series), Danielle shares what burnout really looks like, how to spot the sneaky signs early, and the surprisingly gentle ways you can climb back without guilt—or another mountain of “shoulds.” Grab your tea, light a candle, and let's walk through this together. Because you deserve calm without having to earn it. Recognize the early signs — “When the little things that normally bring you joy don't anymore, that's a red flag your body is waving.” Rest is not optional — “Burnout recovery is like a broken bone. You wouldn't skip the cast—so don't skip rest.” Anchor back to yourself — “Anchors are small daily choices—like a walk outside, drinking water before coffee, or asking for help—that root you in calm instead of chaos.” If this episode resonates, share it with a friend who might need the reminder that burnout isn't failure—it's just your body's way of saying: enough, please.

"In this sermon, we explore Ecclesiastes 3 and Solomon's profound declaration: “To everything there is a season, and a time for every purpose under heaven.”We unpack how life finds true meaning only in light of God's sovereignty. While life apart from God is vanity, recognizing His providential care gives purpose to every event—from birth to death, weeping to laughter, and even love and hate.This message challenges us to:Submit to God's will in every season of life.Recognize the moral duties embedded in God's timing.Conform our lives to Christ, the perfect example of obedience to God's appointed plan.Scripture Focus: Ecclesiastes 3:1-8Main Points:God's sovereignty over all thingsThe moral duties of His timingLiving in submission to God's providence#Ecclesiastes #Sermon #GodsSovereignty #ChristianLiving #Faith #BibleTeaching #SpiritualGrowth #Wisdom #ChristianSermon #GodsProvidence #Ecclesiastes3"

Today's episode is brought to you by Hammer Strength. View more podcast episodes at the podcast homepage. (https://www.just-fly-sports.com/podcast-home/) Timestamps 5:36 – Exploring Yoga, Biomechanics, and Training Through Injury 10:43 – Discovering Movement Connections Through Slow Practice 23:26 – Parkour Training as a Unique Learning Process 31:41 – Balancing Intensity, Recovery, and Longevity in Training 42:08 – The Value of Gentleness in Building Strength 53:30 – Using Constraints to Improve Movement Awareness 59:08 – Applying Martial Intent and Precision in Movement 1:01:31 – Rope Flow as a Tool for Coordination and Rhythm 1:11:17 – Integrating Jump Rope and Rope Flow into Athletic Training Actionable takeaways 5:36 – Exploring Yoga, Biomechanics, and Training Through Injury Key Idea: Tim explains how yoga and biomechanics gave him tools to keep moving through injuries and to rebuild awareness of how his body works. Actionable Takeaways: Use yoga or mindful movement practices as low-intensity ways to stay connected when injured. Pay attention to biomechanics during rehab—it's not just about healing tissue, but about moving better long-term. Reframe injuries as opportunities to explore different forms of movement. 10:43 – Discovering Movement Connections Through Slow Practice Key Idea: Slowing things down can reveal hidden connections between muscles, joints, and fascia. Tim found value in practicing movement slowly before adding intensity. Actionable Takeaways: Strip movements down and slow them until you can feel the sequence. Use slow practice as a diagnostic tool to notice leaks, compensations, or missing links. Build control first, then layer on speed and power. 23:26 – Parkour Training as a Unique Learning Process Key Idea: Parkour introduced Tim to exploration, problem-solving, and adapting movement to different environments. Actionable Takeaways: Use obstacle-based tasks to force creative movement solutions. Train adaptability—don't just repeat drills, but give athletes problems to solve. Embrace exploration: movement learned through play tends to stick. 31:41 – Balancing Intensity, Recovery, and Longevity in Training Key Idea: Tim highlights that chasing intensity every session can shorten careers—longevity requires balance. Actionable Takeaways: Periodize intensity with recovery—don't redline every workout. Prioritize sustainability: ask “Can I do this 10 years from now?” Recovery practices are as important as the training itself. 42:08 – The Value of Gentleness in Building Strength Key Idea: Strength doesn't always come from force—sometimes it's built by gentleness, precision, and subtlety. Actionable Takeaways: Explore lighter, more mindful work instead of always going maximal. Recognize that gentleness can rewire coordination in ways brute strength cannot. Use precise, controlled practice as a pathway to more efficient power later.

Do you ever tell yourself you're just being “content” or “grateful”—when in reality you're actually settling for less than the life you truly want?In this powerful episode, Greg & Rachel Denning pull back the curtain on how false contentment quietly keeps parents stuck in unhappy routines—and why so many families end up living what they call an unhappy dream.You'll discover why true happiness doesn't come from removing desire, but from pursuing your best desires—and how embracing what we call “divine discontent” is the real catalyst for growth, joy, and lasting fulfillment.Instead of numbing out with distractions or convincing yourself you “should just be grateful,” you'll learn how to: - Raise your standards and stop tolerating mediocrity in your health, marriage, parenting, and personal growth- Recognize the difference between gratitude and complacency—and why confusing the two keeps you stuck- Do the inner work first so you can become the kind of parent and leader your kids want to follow- Pursue challenges instead of avoiding them so you build the strength and confidence you need to thrive -Create a family life you don't need to escape from—one filled with meaning, adventure, and joyIf you're ready to stop settling, face what's really holding you back, and design a life you genuinely love, this episode is your wake-up call.Key Takeaways✅ True happiness comes from pursuit, not from removing desire.✅ Divine discontent is healthy—stop tolerating what harms your life.✅ You teach who you are: do the inner work first, every day.✅ Swap “survive the day” for strategic focus + strategic disengagement.✅ Choose challenge over comfort to stay mentally and emotionally healthy.✅ Progress across six domains (physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, social, financial).✅ If you don't like the outcome, raise your standards—then match them with action.✅ Use the power-tool approach (coaching, systems) to collapse time and results.✨ Memorable Quotes

What you are really asking is, how do you know if it's Krishna's plan or if you are doing something wrong? So that you may not know immediately. As Radhika Raman pointed out in his class about prayers, he said that when Hiraṇyakaśipu was trying to kill Prahlāda, one of the ways he tried to do that was to throw him over a cliff. He said, “Kṛṣṇa caught him at the bottom, not at the top.” And in a similar way, as we go through various situations in our life, we wonder whether they are providential, they are an intervention by God, or because I messed up somehow. At first, we may not know. We may have to have faith that Kṛṣṇa will catch us at the bottom. But that's why we have 'tat te 'nukampāṁ su-samīkṣamāṇo,' when one is able to position oneself in such a way as to accept whatever comes. This is a categorical statement: 'tat te 'nukampāṁ su-samīkṣamāṇo bhuñjāna evātma-kṛtaṁ vipākam.' Just accept categorically that whatever is happening is by Kṛṣṇa's arrangement. And then you may come to know, as Prabhupāda in his lecture on Śrīla Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākur's disappearance day, he did several, but in one of them, he's talking about the various setbacks he had in trying to follow his spiritual master, and then he's pointing out, “But look, this is what it brought me to.” And he had a series of statements prefaced by, “Who knew? Who knew that my coming to America would result in this? Who knew?” And Prabhupāda had pointed out in his lecture that he had reversals. He lost his business, he was gored by a cow, he was kicked out of his league of devotees, and so forth. He was thinking back, “Who knew? Who knew? Who knew what? This was Kṛṣṇa's plan.” So it's difficult when these things come up, and we have to fortify ourselves by hearing śāstra and also take the shelter of godbrothers.I was once in managing a project.. ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/ https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/ https://thefourquestionsbook.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FanTheSpark/ Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sound-bhakti/id1132423868 For the latest videos, subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@FanTheSpark For the latest in SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fan-the-spark ------------------------------------------------------------ #spiritualawakening #soul #spiritualexperience #spiritualpurposeoflife #spiritualgrowthlessons #secretsofspirituality #vaisesikaprabhu #vaisesikadasa #vaisesikaprabhulectures #spirituality #bhaktiyoga #krishna #spiritualpurposeoflife #krishnaspirituality #spiritualusachannel #whybhaktiisimportant #whyspiritualityisimportant #vaisesika #spiritualconnection #thepowerofspiritualstudy #selfrealization #spirituallectures #spiritualstudy #spiritualquestions #spiritualquestionsanswered #trendingspiritualtopics #fanthespark #spiritualpowerofmeditation #spiritualteachersonyoutube #spiritualhabits #spiritualclarity #bhagavadgita #srimadbhagavatam #spiritualbeings #kttvg #keepthetranscendentalvibrationgoing #spiritualpurpose

Send Crystal a text letting her know what you thought about the show!This season of Forces for Nature is extra special- all of the guests are participants in the Emerging Wildlife Conservation Leaders (EWCL) program, a global network of conservationists who are pushing the boundaries of how people and wildlife can thrive together. As EWCL celebrates its 20th anniversary this year, I'm spotlighting some of the inspiring individuals whose work is shaping the future of conservation.To kick things off, I sat down with Dr. Hugo Pereira, a field veterinarian with the Mozambique Wildlife Alliance. Hugo's job might sound like it's all about the animals- from darting elephants, to rescuing orphaned rhinos, and rehabilitating pangolins- but as he makes clear, conservation is just as much about people. In Mozambique, communities and wildlife share the same land, which means Hugo's work often starts with listening to frustrations, building trust, and co-creating solutions that reduce conflict and create opportunity. And while you may never lift a rhino calf into a helicopter or pull an elephant out of the mud, you probably do encounter your own version of human–wildlife conflict whether it's deer eating your garden, coyotes prowling your neighborhood, or simply the daily choices of how your community shares space with nature. Hugo's “people-first” approach shows us that coexistence starts with compassion, creativity, and persistence and the principles he lives by in the savannas of Mozambique are the same ones that can guide us in our own backyards.HighlightsThe adrenaline and precision behind rescuing a rhino calf orphaned by poachers.How Hugo and the Mozambique Wildlife Alliance adapt with creativity in the field to save animals in crisis.Why a “people-first” approach is essential for reducing human-wildlife conflict and creating space for coexistence.What YOU Can DoVolunteer your skills to support local zoos or conservation institutions.Share conservation stories on social media. Spreading the right information helps raise awareness and attract wider support. Donate to conservation organizations.Educate yourself about organizations in your own area: Who they are, why they do what they do, and what would happen if they didn't exist. This awareness builds empathy and informed support.Get informed about local wildlife and why they're present. Understanding why deer, coyotes, or other species show up in neighborhoods helps people move from frustration to tolerance.Modify your environment to prevent conflict:Build or adjust fences to keep animals out of gardens or crops.Use deterrents like flashlights, noises, or scarecrows, depending on the species.Recognize “tolerance” as an important step: we don't have to love the wildlife around us, but learning to tolerate them is the bridge toward coexistence.Want a free guide to help you become a force for nature?

This podcast discussion introduces the Enneagram, a personality typing system that categorizes individuals into nine core motivations, often grouped into three triads based on dominant emotions: anger (body types 8, 9, 1), shame/attention (heart types 2, 3, 4), and fear/anxiety (head types 5, 6, 7). Eric and Jess share personal anecdotes about how understanding their own and others' Enneagram types has profoundly improved their relationships and communication, highlighting the system's ability to offer empathy and insight into underlying motivations rather than just observable behaviors. They also touch upon the practical applications of the Enneagram in business, emphasizing its utility as a tool for better understanding clients and employees and fostering healthier interactions, while cautioning against its misuse for manipulation. Ultimately, the conversation underscores the Enneagram's value in promoting self-awareness and personal growth, allowing individuals to recognize their strengths and become their "healthiest selves." Key Takeaways: Begin by identifying your own Enneagram type to gain a profound understanding of your core motivations and inner world. Use the Enneagram to improve communication and build deeper connections with your family and friends by understanding their underlying motivations. Apply Enneagram insights to your professional life to better connect with and motivate employees, clients, and prospects. Recognize that giving language to your motivations provides you with greater control over your emotional life and how you respond to the world. Cultivate greater empathy for others by understanding the fundamental drivers behind their behaviors, leading to stronger, more meaningful relationships.
