Episode Description:Some things you were never meant to carry forever. In this episode, we'll talk about how "falling down the stairs" reminded me of the emotional, spiritual, and physical toll of holding on too long. We'll explore why it's important for you to release, and the real cost of refusing to release what God has already called you to let go. From anxiety and identity distortion to stress-related health issues, this is your reminder that peace is not passive—it's powerful. And sometimes, letting it be is the most loving thing you can do for yourself.In This Episode:• What holding on too long really costs you• How unprocessed pain shows up in your body• What “letting it be” looks like spiritually and practically• Reflective questions to help you release and restScriptures Referenced:• Proverbs 14:30• Philippians 4:7Call to Action:Take a moment to journal or voice-note your answer to this: What is my body, spirit, or mind asking me to release? Then tag me or DM me what you're choosing to let be. Your release is part of your healing.The Well Done Life Podcast Information:The Reset Experience Recap Video: https://youtu.be/4ynD3AEuz2I?si=okF38OJIH4vLoVmJPrevious Episode: https://www.buzzsprout.com/851650/episodes/17092873-unapologetic-no-honoring-what-feels-right.mp3?download=trueInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/pamelaldavis/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thewelldonelifepodcastEmail: hello@thewelldonelife.com and thewelldonelife@gmail.com Thank you for listening.

This, the final episode of Ways of Listening, was recorded live by Hannah Kemp-Welch at the symposium ‘Listening Together: Practices for Community-Centred Listening' at London College of Communication in February 2025. Drawing on their experiences and emerging practices, electroacoustic composer Julia Schauerman, queer artist and educator Samantha Dick, and Senior Lecturer at University of Arts London Lainy Malkani reflect on the creative and ethical issues of working with the recorded voices of others. Together, they consider what a reflective and responsible creative practice looks like. The discussion touches upon - consent and permission, artistic interpretation of recorded voices, representation and agency of the voice subjects, and practical challenges.

Brief Description Charisma isn't just for extroverts or performers—it's a scientific advantage that determines how often you're invited, trusted, and remembered. In this episode of Social Intelligence, AJ Harbinger and Johnny Dzubak reveal why people decide how they feel about you before they evaluate your skills, and how this hidden force might be keeping you from the promotions and relationships you deserve. Through the story of their client Brett—a high-performer who was passed over for promotion despite working harder than everyone else—AJ and Johnny break down why being skilled isn't enough when you're perceived as "cold and unapproachable." They share three counterintuitive, science-backed techniques that transformed Brett from invisible to magnetic in both his professional and social circles. If you've ever wondered why colleagues with average skills get all the credit, or why you keep hearing you're "great at what you do" but still feel invisible, this episode reveals the subtle signals of warmth and connection you might be missing. [00:00:00] Opening introduction to the hidden force of charisma [00:02:54] How charisma opens doors and makes everything easier [00:05:36] Why warmth is judged before competence (Princeton research) [00:07:37] The "processing face" problem that makes you seem unapproachable [00:08:31] How avoiding side conversations kills career opportunities [00:10:53] The Pratfall Effect: How small mistakes make you more likable [00:11:55] The Reflective Label Technique: Mirroring emotions to build connection [00:13:30] The Benjamin Franklin Effect: Why asking for help raises your status[00:16:41] Three-step challenge to boost your charisma this week People judge your warmth before they judge your skills—without warmth, your competence won't matter Mirror neurons fire when we converse, creating shared emotional states that build connection The "processing face" problem: When you're thinking deeply, your expressionless face makes others uncomfortable The Pratfall Effect: Competent people become more likable when they reveal a small flaw or vulnerability Reflective labeling shows emotional fluency and makes people feel deeply understood The Benjamin Franklin Effect: Asking for advice activates others' investment in you and raises your status Small acts of vulnerability build more authentic connections than maintaining a "mask of competence" The Art of Charm Social Intelligence ProgramLooking to quickly improve your social intelligence with support from AJ, Johnny, and their team?

“If you cannot sit with yourself, the world cannot give you peace.”   What if being alone wasn't something to fear,  but a sacred invitation to return home to yourself? In today's episode of Soul Talk, I speak on a topic that most of us avoid: solitude. But I'm not talking about isolation. I'm talking about the kind of aloneness that strips away the noise, dissolves false identities, and brings you face-to-face with your soul. We live in a world addicted to distraction. We're constantly running, scrolling, chasing, searching. But what if everything you're looking for is found in the silence you're avoiding? This episode is an invitation to shift your perspective. To stop resisting the quiet. To stop running from yourself. Because the truth is: when you can be fully with yourself, you become free. Whether you're navigating a breakup, in a season of uncertainty, or simply craving deeper connection, this is for you. Solitude isn't a punishment. It's preparation. And when you embrace it, your life will transform from the inside out. Timestamps:   (00:03:59) - Why being alone could be the key to your freedom. (00:13:18) - The real fear behind aloneness. (00:05:07) - How society conditions us to fear solitude. (00:08:39) - The surprising power of being alone. (00:11:28) - What solitude awakens in us: awareness, strength, and freedom. (00:13:40) - Reflective self-inquiry: Who are you when no one is watching? (00:16:39) - The importance of daily silence and journaling. (00:17:28) - Why aloneness is a sacred path walked by all great souls. (00:18:50) - A humbling fatherhood moment that revealed divine connection.  (00:21:15) - Aloneness as a superpower. Some Questions I Ask:  What if solitude isn't punishment but preparation? Why do we resist silence and stillness? Who are you when no one else is watching? Can you be the love you've been seeking? What do you fear will surface in the silence? How can you reclaim your power by embracing aloneness? In this episode, you will learn about:  Why being alone is not the same as being lonely. How to shift your perspective on aloneness from fear and lack to peace and inner strength. Why true connection with others begins with a deep connection to yourself. Simple daily rituals to help you embrace stillness and make space for inner clarity. The real reason we avoid silence and how facing it can unlock profound healing. How embracing your aloneness can lead to greater creativity, self-awareness, and authentic love.

This episode of The Peaceful Parenting Podcast is a conversation with Alfie Kohn, the author of 14 books including Unconditional Parenting and The Myth of the Spoiled Child. The work of Alfie Kohn has been one of the biggest influences on how I parent and why I have dedicated my career to being a Peaceful Parenting Coach. We discuss why people have always thought parents are too permissive, the nuance involved in “working with” our kids, and why we need to raise reflective rebels who question what they are told. We talk about: 7:00 Why people think we are “too soft” and permissive with kids 12:00 How black and white thinking gets in the way of peaceful parenting 15:37 “Working with” parenting vs. intensive or helicopter parenting 22:00 Why some kids need more parental support 24:00 Why we need to be realistic and raise “reflective rebels”   Download the episode transcript HERE    Resources mentioned in this episode: The Myth of the Spoiled Child  Unconditional Parenting    Connect with Sarah Rosensweet:   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sarahrosensweet/  Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/peacefulparentingfreegroup YouTube: Peaceful Parenting with Sarah Rosensweet @peacefulparentingwithsarah4194 Website: https://reimaginepeacefulparenting.com   Join us on Patreon: www.patreon.com/peacefulparenting  Newsletter: https://reimaginepeacefulparenting.com/newsletter  Book a short consult or coaching session call: https://book-with-sarah-rosensweet.as.me/schedule.php

The More Sibyl Podcast Presents: 다시 피어나다| Healing, Aging & Doing Life God's Way — A Reflective Reunion with Ada Unigwe | Episode 13 (2025)We're still celebrating our milestone anniversary by reconnecting with some of the incredible voices from our past — and in this episode, I'm sitting down again with my dear friend, Ms. Ada Unigwe, first featured in our 2018 episode, “The Life of a Woman.” In this honest and heart-centered conversation, Ada reflects on the changes the past seven years have brought — from navigating premenopause and parenting with intention, to building a foundation of faith for her children. She shares how her views on love, legacy, and purpose have evolved, and why she now chooses alignment with God's will over chasing societal expectations. We also get honest about the silent struggles of African single moms in the diaspora, the stigma of divorce in African communities, and how faith has helped Ada reframe loss, rejection, and healing. Plus, she opens up about her dating journey, her decision to step back, and what it looks like to trust God one day at a time. If you're navigating heartbreak, solo parenting, or simply seeking encouragement in your faith journey, this episode is a poignant reminder: your story matters, with its scars, softness, strength, and all.

This episode is almost a mini workshop.. At the heart of my work- both personally and in my business, is a living, breathing practice of attuning to what wants to emerge. In this episode, I invite you into a conversation that's been foundational for me, one that many of you may already know through nature, intuition, or psychic training. This episode is here to help you reorient back to your truth. To remember who you are beneath the noise. To plug back into the frequencies that nourish your soul and your creative path.It's a transmission about listening. Listening to your body. Listening to your business. Listening to the spirit of the path that chose you. I speak to the conversations that awaken us-not the surface-level, world chatter, but the kind of soul dialogue that only happens when people are brave enough to go deeper. To orient to something unseen. To serve something real.We talk about business as a plant spirit. Entrepreneurship as the modern-day medicine path. Your creations as living beings with their own will and way. We speak to the journey of becoming the vessel- of weaving with the spirit of your work, not just executing a plan.We talk about what happens when your creation starts to feel like tin foil- shiny and far-reaching but unable to hold any real weight. That's how the spirit of my business, Wellness Weaver, started showing up to me. Stretched too thin. Reflective of everyone else's needs, but disconnected from her own root.If you've been feeling like your offerings are shimmering but fragile, like they've lost the density or stability to hold the weight of what you're truly here to do- this one's for you.This episode is an invitation to re-weave. To honor the natural intelligence of what wants to be created through you. To come back to what already lives in your body. To trust that your business didn't choose you to burn you out- it chose you to become more of yourself.If you've been waiting for a sign to clarify, simplify, and refocus your energy- this is it. This is a call to come home to the roots, the soil, the stillness where true creation begins.Find me on instagram: ⁠@WellnessWeaver⁠ Current Offerings: ⁠Wellness Weaver Offers⁠ Join the newsletter: ⁠The Letters⁠

Hamsa is also the Co-Founder of Kintsugi Village, a non-profit hub in Detroit that will provide a childhood education center, artist incubator, culinary kitchen, and more to the local community.  Many of you likely know Hamsa as the bright, caring leader who helmed the Small Giants Community operations for nearly a decade.

Cool, man. We cool men and a robot are socking a cheater in the gut, suffering a honker punch, getting duped by a lying treasure chest, allowing the fascists to pass through, teeming with the criminal element, moving drunk Kyle around the map, sleeping on a rock bed, building a jail in the basement, eating bugs, appreciating milfs, wondering if mountain fish is fresh, sashaying into a bedroom, smelling some sheets, reflecting people on mucus, becoming most entirely berserk and uncontrollable, and letting the brewskis run their course.
