There is no mention of what became of the Stoics' wives. We don't talk about the slights and the condescension they would have put up with as the ‘weaker sex.'
In this week's episode, Dr. Kim and Mrs. Nancy unpack the powerful topic of expectations—focusing on how to clearly express what you need from your spouse. With honest conversation, a willingness to listen, and an open heart, you can transform how you communicate and connect in your relationship. Quotes from this episode: “I just thought you knew. And when you didn't I would go along and get resentful” “We were trying to fit each other in the mold.” “Our first big argument scared the heck out of me. My unrealistic expectation was that we would never fight.” “It's a good idea to have a signal or cue so that you make your spouse aware.” Questions for Reflection: What are some expectations—spoken or unspoken—that we each bring into our marriage, and how well do we feel they've been understood by each other? When was a time we misunderstood one another because expectations weren't clearly communicated? What can we learn from that moment? How can we create more space in our relationship for honest, judgment-free conversations about what we each need or hope for? What's one expectation we can both express more clearly this week—and how can we support each other in meeting it with love and grace?

On Ron's Amazing Stories! Imagine standing at the mythical "Lake of Wisdom," only to find that even shallow waters can reflect the sky. This episode is a quirky dive into unexpected connections, featuring two stories that seem worlds apart—but are they really? Take on Ron's challenge: Can you figure out the twisted thread tying them together? Story 1: Like Man, Somebody Dig Me Series: Suspense Aired: May 25, 1958 Synopsis: A tale straight from the Beatnik era—cool cats, existential dread, and a man determined to exhaust everyone he meets. It's a wild ride through history's most dramatically unimpressed generation. Story 2: The Outer Limit Series: X Minus One Aired: November 11, 1955 Synopsis: Fasten your seatbelts for a leap into the "future"—1965, that is—where experimental rocket tests set the stage for humanity's triumphs and cautionary tales. Spoiler: Things don't go exactly as planned. Did you spot the connection between these two tales? Was it delusion, inspiration, or something more? Share your thoughts—we'd love to hear from you.

How many times have you said to yourself, “If I get or do X, Y, Z, then I'll be happy,” only to find yourself regretting your decision or wanting even more? In this podcast, Bhante Sathi discusses how we can cultivate contentment in our lives, and how mindfulness and generosity can counteract craving by fostering wisdom and a healthier relationship with what we truly need. He also explores overcoming fear through meditation and mindful inquiry, encouraging us to face fear with curiosity rather than avoidance.

What if chasing more was keeping you from what truly matters? Elliot Kay shares his powerful journey of stepping back from multiple ventures to realign with purpose. With unfiltered honesty, he explores how choosing consolidation over constant hustle brought clarity, joy and deeper presence in both life and work. Elliot redefines success not by income, but by impact, connection and legacy. From being more present as a father to transforming the speaking industry, his story offers inspiration for anyone at a crossroads. Perhaps it's your turn to embrace a purposeful consolidation. KEY TAKEAWAY ‘What I'm actually focused on is consolidation, on pulling in my life, focusing on becoming a better father on a daily basis so I can be more present and a bit more fun for my kids. Every day I focus on trying to be a better person.' ABOUT ELLIOT Elliot Kay's journey is one of resilience, transformation and purpose. Growing up amid addiction, neglect and violence, he faced immense struggles, including dyslexia and a devastating assault at 13. But he refused to be defined by his past. Instead, he built a thriving business and became a powerhouse in leadership communication. Now an award-winning UK speaker, trainer and author, Elliot helps others harness their voices for impact and success.

Hola, everybody! Right before this speaking gig, I had a wave of self-doubt. I started to question whether the audience would even care about what I had to say.In this episode, I walk through what that moment felt like, the tools I used to shift my mindset in real time, and how I still showed up and did my thing on stage. If you've ever had that “Why me?” or "I can't do this" moment right before speaking, this one's for you.

Hey Friend! This episode is more than just a moment of remembrance—it's an invitation to realignment. Memorial Day carries deep meaning for me, not only as a veteran and widow of a fallen hero, but as someone who has walked through the fire of grief and come out the other side with a sharper sense of purpose. In this episode, I'm inviting you into a conversation about life, legacy, and the kind of leadership that matters most. Whether you wear a uniform or not, your life leaves an imprint. Today, we pause to reflect on what kind of legacy we're living—and how to make sure it aligns with the calling God placed in us.
On the last Moonday of the month we look back and count our blessings ✨ Today is the new moon in Gemini, so you may already find yourself in a pretty reflective state of mind, and you might be having some thoughts about what you want your future to look like too.

(EP 310) - Foundations Conversation Month 8 Update - Reflection by Scott H Young
Why is it so hard for teens and young adults to cut back on social media — even when they truly want to? What emotional triggers keep pulling them back onto apps, and what actually happens once they're there? In this episode of Parenting in the Screen Age, host Dr. Delaney Ruston explores these questions with Dr. Katie Davis, a leading expert on youth and technology. Dr. Davis is a professor at the University of Washington's Information School, with an adjunct appointment in the College of Education. She co-directs the UW Digital Youth Lab and is the author of three books on how technology shapes young people's learning, development, and well-being. They dive into a recent study by Dr. Davis that explores the emotional and situational drivers behind teens' social media use—from the triggers that lead them to open an app to what happens emotionally while they're on it. The research offers powerful insights that can help young people and adults make more mindful choices around screen time. This episode is ideal for both adults and tweens who want to better understand the “why” behind social media habits.

Despite doing what seemed like all of the right things, Charlie, a rising senior in college, died by suicide in July of 2022 at only 21 years old. It was shocking and devastating -- and they are learning to live with it, to carry with it! "Betsy Thibaut Stephenson lives in Alexandria, Virginia with her husband and labrador retrievers. When she isn't visiting her grown daughters in North Carolina and South Carolina, she is helping public affairs clients tell their story to policymakers and the media. Blackbird is her first book."There are SO many take aways from this mom-to-mom heart-to-heart....Here's a few of the highlights of our conversation include: How they responded as a family when Charlie reached out when he spoke out about his thoughts of self-harm from the first time. The trips to see him after he opened up-- and the letter she wrote him, that he carried with him & was found in his backpack after he was gone.The letters he wrote and left behind (not a suicide note, per se, but insight of sorts) & what those told his family & how they 'helped' them understand moreThe shock of his death-- and how they spoke 'the open truth' from the beginning.ALL of the 'signs; she gets from him now... why bringing him into 'everything" helps and makes it lighter somehow. (I love this part!) It's OK to be 'selfish' in your griefWhy the title "Blackbird" for the book --- you HAVE TO HEAR THIS--- stuff you can NOT make up here people!??

Hello to you listening all over America on this Memorial Day our nation's foremost day of remembrance.Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories from Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds (and a bit more) for Motivate Your Monday and your host, Diane Wyzga.On this solemn day of reflection we honor and mourn the men and women who sacrificed their lives for their country in peacetime and war. Today we are at war. Our Democracy, our constitution, our rule of law, and even our people are under assault. Is there reason to fight, to hope? You bet there is!The first weeks of Churchill's Prime Ministership were clouded by the fall of France and the surrender of the Belgian Army, with repercussions for the Western alliance. To delay the German advance towards Britain, Churchill ordered expeditionary forces to retreat towards the port of Dunkirk to allow an Allied evacuation that lasted for nine days. Churchill's descriptions of events were more akin to a war reporter than a political statesman as he explained in great detail to his fellow members the bravery and ingenuity of the British forces in the face of the German war machine. Despite the success of the operation there was still a loss of over 30,000 men and vast amounts of artillery.Yet in the face of such adversity and sacrifice Churchill used his voice and his unshakeable determination to make a rallying cry to not just his fellow countrymen but also the beleaguered French in this historic speech delivered to the House of Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom on June 4, 1940: “We shall go on to the end. We shall fight in France, we shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be. We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender!”Click HERE to listen to Churchill's voice and take in the unforgettable images that fortified his words.Click HERE to access the Transcript of Churchill's speechClick HERE to access: The Miracle of Dunkirk Click HERE to access the 85th anniversary of the evacuation of Dunkirk with 64 of the original Little Ships heading back to the Dunkirk beaches.CTA: As you go about your day keep in mind that we Americans are not lost as long as we organize and fight together.
