Podcasts about Resilience

In this episode of the Building HVAC Science Podcast, hosts Bill Spohn and Eric Kaiser sit down with two passionate leaders from the GRIT Foundation—Executive Director Leilani Orr and Head of Training Ty Branaman. Together, they unpack the origin story, purpose, and transformative impact of GRIT Camps, which introduce youth to the skilled trades in immersive, hands-on ways. The conversation explores how GRIT—which stands for Growth and Resilience in the Trades—isn't just a clever acronym but a mindset. Through personal stories, Leilani and Ty reflect on the deeper "why" behind the camps: fostering curiosity, building confidence, and instilling pride in practical skills that often go unrecognized. They discuss how using tools like the Socratic method not only helps students learn but transforms mentors as well—often reigniting their passion for the trades. You'll hear about real-life transformations: timid students who become torch-wielding creators, mentors discovering new ways to engage, and parents witnessing their children light up with newfound purpose. As a pending nonprofit, the GRIT Foundation is fueled by heart, vision, and a small but mighty network of supporters—with hopes of expanding nationwide through thoughtful partnerships. “If I can do this, anybody can do this. I don't want to be the guy—I want to be the guy helping other people become the guy.” – Ty Branaman “We're not recruiting kids into the trades—we're fostering curiosity and confidence in whoever they want to become.” – Leilani Orr “What you're doing is important because it touches your heart—or brings a tear to your eye.” – Bill Spohn The Grit Foundation: https://www.thegritfoundation.com/ Leilani's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/leilani-orr-5a0948343/ Ty's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ty-branaman-cmhe-07604a33/ Bryan Orr's book, Unconfomed: An Unbound and Unbridled Path to Unstuck Growth: https://a.co/d/9zMmSmQ     This episode was recorded in July 2025.  

Thoughtful artists often hesitate to share their work publicly—not because they're lazy or unclear, but because they don't want to contribute to the “noise” online. In this solo episode, host Alyson Stanfield unpacks that fear and explain why it's often a mask for perfectionism. You'll hear why your content doesn't need to be perfect, polished, or viral—it just needs to be true. She also shares mindset shifts to help you move from performance to presence, broadcasting to connection, and perfection to permission. Whether you're struggling to post, over-editing everything, or just trying to trust your voice again, this episode is here to remind you: you're not the noise. You're the signal. [00:00] Workshop intro: From Followers to Collectors [01:45] The fear of adding to the noise [03:20] You're not the noise—you're the signal [04:50] Where “quality over quantity” falls apart [06:30] Some of your best content might be the quickest [07:15] When perfectionism poses as professionalism [08:10] What quality really looks like (hint: not polished) [09:25] You can't control who sees it—just share [10:40] Shifting from performance to presence [11:35] Final encouragement: show up with trust [12:15] Workshop + Essentials invitation [13:00] Closing thanks + where to find more

Dennis is joined via Zoom by actor-director-producer Ellen Geer who is the Producing Artistic Director of one of Dennis's favorite spots in Los Angeles, The Will Geer Theatricum Botanicum in Topange Canyon. Dennis has been going to see plays at the outdoor amphitheater since the early 90's and has seen Ellen perform in scores of shows there as well as seeing just as many that she directed and produced. This season, she co-directed the play Strife by Nobel Prize-winning writer John Galsworthy. The show, about a labor strike in rural Pennsylvania, was written in the early 1900's but feels like it could have been written in 2025. The wealthy board of directors feel like the today's financially insatiable oligarchs and the workers are dealing with the same type of injustices that workers face today. Ellen talks about why she chose Strife for this "Season of Resilience," her own history as an activist and the pleasure of co-directing with her daughter Willow Geer. She also discusses the rich history of her family and the property, which was acquired by her parents in the 1950's when her father, the actor Will Geer, was blacklisted during the McCarthy Era and the entire family was ostracized from Hollywood and their Santa Monica community. In the 1950's-60's, the Botanicum property became a safe place for blacklisted artists to seek refuge and practice their craft. In the 1970's, after Will Geer found fame as Grandpa Walton on The Waltons, the place officially opened to the public as The Will Geer Theatricum Botanicum. Ellen talks about her favorite spot on the property, her encounters with animals like bears, deer, mountain lions and rattlesnakes and the challenges of doing theater in such a unique outdoor place. Other topics include: why her father loved plants, losing all her friends as a child because of the blacklist, Jimmy Stewart being sweet to her on The Jimmy Stewart Show, how the current resistance movement could use some good folk songs, and that time her father taught her that reading Shakespeare could be just as enlightening as going to therapy. www.theatricum.com

Episode #162: Award-winning actress Hannah Barefoot joins us for an insightful conversation filled with warmth and inspiration. Celebrating her 20th wedding anniversary, Hannah shares the joys and challenges of motherhood, from raising a teenage son dabbling in day trading to nurturing her creative spirit over a decade in Los Angeles. Together, we explore the magic of embracing each moment, balancing family life with artistic endeavors, and the unique quirks that make our married last names a source of humor and curiosity. Hannah offers a rare glimpse into the world of actors who thrive without the spotlight of household fame. Through candid reflections, she discusses the resilience needed to maintain a successful career in acting, the crucial role of agents and managers, and the power of self-improvement. We turn the spotlight on the importance of separating self-worth from professional outcomes, using unexpected metaphors to shed light on resilience and adaptability in the industry, moving beyond the "starving artist" stereotype. As we continue our engaging chat, we journey through themes of resilience and healing, inspired by the making of the "Wyoming Christmas Carol" film. Set against the stunning backdrop of Cody, Wyoming, this heartwarming project weaves together family, music, and second chances. We delve into our shared experiences of adversity and healing, drawing inspiration from the Japanese art of kintsugi to celebrate imperfection and growth. Listeners are invited to engage with the film project and find empowerment in their own paths of healing and contribution.

Blake holds a PhD in Psychology and led the largest randomized controlled trial on Conscious Connected Breathwork (CCB) to date. His work bridges science and somatic healing, challenging mainstream assumptions about mental health. He recently gained widespread attention for questioning whether therapy is always beneficial, pointing to unintended harms such as increased family estrangement.

In the aftermath of the devastating Eaton Canyon Fire in Altadena, California, three Pasadena community leaders—Mayra Macedo-Nolan, Pastor Kerwin Manning, and Megan Katerjian—join host Mark Labberton for a sobering and hopeful conversation on what it takes to rebuild homes, neighborhoods, and lives. Together they discuss their personal losses, the long-term trauma facing their neighbors, the racial and economic disparities exposed by disaster, and how the Church is rising to meet these challenges with grit, grace, and faith. Their stories illuminate how a community holds fast when the media leaves, when vultures circle, and when the work is just beginning. This is a conversation about sacred presence, practical resilience, and the enduring witness of faithful service—even in the ashes. Mayra Macedo-Nolan is Executive Director of the Clergy Community Coalition of Greater Pasadena Kerwin Manning is Senior Pastor of Pasadena Church Megan Katerjian is CEO of Door of Hope Ministries Helpful Links and Resources Door of Hope Pasadena – Family homelessness intervention and fire assistance program Pasadena Church – Kerwin Manning's congregation and relief center Clergy Community Coalition of Greater Pasadena – Mayra Macedo-Nolan's organization supporting pastors and churches Isaiah 61:3 – “Beauty for ashes” verse referenced by Kerwin Andre Crouch – “Soon and Very Soon” – Gospel anthem of hope quoted by Pastor Kerwin Show Notes CCC (Clergy Community Coalition) rapidly pivoted to virtual meetings the morning after hurricane-force winds and fire struck Altadena. “We moved it to virtual… and then we had no idea what was gonna happen that evening and overnight.” —Mayra Macedo-Nolan After the fire started, 56 participants gathered online, including city leaders and faith-based partners, forming a core response network. “Everybody wanted to be together… especially in a crisis like this.” —Mayra Pastor Kerwin and his wife Madeline evacuated with almost no notice after hearing the sheriff outside their door. “We, Madeline and I, like so many others, were fleeing for our lives.” —Kerwin Manning For weeks, they didn't know whether their home was still standing; the priority became their church and community. “We didn't know if our home was standing… we were more concerned about our church, our community.” —Kerwin Pasadena Church began relief work immediately—even before confirming their own housing stability. “This is the first interview or anything I've done online back in my home.” —Kerwin Door of Hope's CEO evacuated with her children and lost her home; she quickly organized shelter responses for others. “I found out that my house had been entirely destroyed.” —Megan Katerjian Within 10 days, Door of Hope launched a formal housing assistance program for fire-affected families. “Door of Hope had launched what we call the Eaton Fire Housing Assistance Program.” —Megan The CCC became a spiritual and logistical backbone for Altadena's recovery, activating two decades of community-building. “This was a time that it was really important for the local clergy to be in conversation with one another.” —Mayra Pasadena Church became a distribution hub, serving as far east as any organization in the city. “We wore our church members out.” —Kerwin Over two months, the church distributed daily essentials from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m., shifting to a long-term weekly rhythm. “We thought we would do it for a couple of weeks… we were doing it every day… for about two months straight.” —Kerwin “We might run out of water, we might run out of toothpaste, but we refuse to run out of smiles and kindness.” —Kerwin Altadena's west side—long a haven for Black and Brown families—suffered the worst structural damage and displacement. “Altadena had been a haven really for Black and Brown families who couldn't purchase homes anywhere.” —Mayra Many impacted residents were informal renters or multigenerational households without clear legal housing claims. “These are the stories of people… for whom there is no path back to Altadena anytime soon.” —Megan 11 churches were lost or damaged, including small and under-resourced congregations still unsure about rebuilding. “We lost 10 houses of worship, and one was partially burned… essentially 11.” —Mayra Local churches served both members and neighbors regardless of formal affiliation, often the first to show up with aid. “We don't do any of this work alone.” —Megan CCC supports 100+ churches across Pasadena with infrastructure, grants, emotional care, and community strategy. “We want them to be okay… and then as they serve their church members and the neighbors surrounding their church.” —Mayra Door of Hope offered security deposits, rent, emergency shelter, tool replacement, and even vehicles to affected families. “Beauty for ashes” “We just have to do more of it.” —Megan Volunteers gave out handwritten cards from kids across the country; some were shared at distribution events. “I've got a box full of cards from kids… just like it's going to be okay. We're praying for it.” —Kerwin A guiding pastoral metaphor: vultures circling a wounded deer, and the need to protect the vulnerable from predation. “The vultures were circling… and I covered the deer… and the vultures left.” —Kerwin “The needs have not slowed. …  finances always follow just heart and compassion and awareness.” —Megan “You learn so much in the middle of crisis. One of the things that crisis does is it confirms character and you realize like what people are made of when you're going through something.” “Until. Until the need is gone, until we don't have to do it anymore.” —Kerwin The immigrant community faces a second “fire”—ICE raids and deportation threats layered atop housing loss. “The intersection of those… the two fires, the fire that we didn't know we were gonna have, and the fire that we knew was coming.” —Mayra CCC pastors protested ICE actions together, maintaining peace through community presence and music. “The pastors were there… and then it's just… it's a sacred party.” —Mayra Latino cultural traditions of protest, grief, and celebration shaped a healing, communal public presence. “We cry and we're gonna probably celebrate and eat food and dance together.” —Mayra Local leaders are pushing back against a 10-year recovery timeline with a goal of rebuilding within 3–5 years. “We reject that. She said, three to five years, that's what we're gonna push for.” —Mayra Community grief deepened when the first burned lot was sold; hope emerged again when the first rebuilding began. “There they go… it's gonna start selling.” / “We think there was… this collective celebration.” —Mayra “Soon and very soon we're gonna see the King.” —Kerwin Kerwin invoked Isaiah 61:3: “Beauty will rise” as a spiritual theme for their church's recovery ministry. “We believe that we're able to continue to do what we're doing knowing that, trusting that beauty's gonna rise.” —Kerwin The phrase “Altadena is not for sale” became a rallying cry—although some elders opted to relocate for peace. “It's up to you. Our prayer is that more people will want to stay than leave.” —Kerwin Ongoing challenges include zoning delays, state and county coordination issues, and political friction at the national level. “The church has always been a vital provider of resources, critical social services and resources in communities on an ongoing basis in normal time.” —Mayra ”The greatest sense that you get from being there is people are together. There's a sense of unity and community protection that is very palpable.” A sacred party Resilience and God's presence and strength “It feels like our president doesn't like us… our governor… whatever they've got going on impacts us.” —Kerwin “The church… is always a vital provider… of resources, critical social services… in normal time.” —Mayra About the Guests Mayra Macedo-Nolan is Executive Director of the Clergy Community Coalition of Greater Pasadena, where she leads efforts to strengthen faith-based response to systemic inequities in housing, education, and social services. Formerly on pastoral staff at Lake Avenue Church, she's spent two decades in community leadership in Pasadena and Altadena. Pastor Kerwin Manning is Senior Pastor of Pasadena Church and a founding leader in the Clergy Community Coalition. A longtime advocate for youth and justice, he's served the Pasadena community with a heart for unity, compassion, and spiritual renewal. Megan Katerjian is CEO of Door of Hope, a Pasadena-based nonprofit serving homeless and at-risk families.

Hey, humans. I want to talk about something that so many of us struggle with, and that's the feeling of not being enough. This is a part three of a series called "What If". I highly recommend going back and listening to the previous two if you haven't heard them already. I know that shame spiral all too well; when my life shifted in a single moment almost ten years ago, I found myself in a very dark place, believing I was flawed and unworthy. And as Brené Brown's research shows, that's the difference between guilt—I did something bad—and shame, which is the belief that I am bad . Let me say that again: Guilt is 'I did something bad,' shame is 'I am bad'. So what if we could change that narrative? What if you truly believed, right now, that you are enough, because you already are? Your assignment this week is to find one moment, maybe even write it on your mirror like I do, and tell yourself, 'I am enough exactly as I am' . We have the power to control our own script, so let's start there. Stacie More episodes at StacieBaird.com.

In 2003, I was in New Zealand to compete in the Triathlon world championships. It was an amazing time. I met some amazing athletes from around the world, most notably Champion Barb Lindquist and Sheila Taormina, who went on to become the first person to qualify for the Olympics in THREE different sports. But the most interesting person I met? Today's guest, Tricia Downing.Among a sea of mental toughness, resilience and grit, none exceeded Trish. She'd become a triathlete after a serious bike wreck left her paralyzed from the waist down. While the rest of us swam, cycled and ran the course, Trish did it with just her upper body. Incredible. We continued crossing paths after that trip, and she was actually one of our first coaches when we launched Catalyst Coaching to serve employees nationwide back in 2007.Her amazing life journey has continued, and when I saw she was launching into yet another new adventure, I immediately reached out to see if she'd be willing to share her story with you. You're going to soak this one in.

In episode 233 of America Adapts, host Doug Parsons takes you inside the 2025 MR Conference at Columbia University, a gathering focused on the complex realities of climate-driven movement—whether we call it managed retreat, relocation, or mobility. What does it mean to leave behind homes, neighborhoods, or entire communities in response to climate risks—and how do we do it in ways that prioritize justice and long-term resilience? The episode explores the politics of place attachment, the financial systems that shape who can move and who can't, and how storytelling helps bring these abstract issues down to the human level. You'll hear from a diverse group of voices across disciplines, and from former Costa Rican President Carlos Alvarado, who calls for moral leadership and shared responsibility in a world facing climate-driven displacement. Whether you're an adaptation professional or simply trying to understand what's coming, this episode delivers timely insights from the frontlines of climate planning. This episode was generously sponsored by Tulane University's Center on Climate Change and Urbanism.

Help inspire the future of With & For! Click here to take our short survey! The first five respondents will receive exclusive swag from the Thrive Center!Thriving is a relational journey that involves being deeply connected to others and the community.The importance of a "true north" and discerning what is most sacred to orient one's life.Understanding thriving as accepting a truer story of yourself, others, and the world.Engaging in mindset and behavior changes for flourishing, with self-compassion.Thriving as having resources built up in various domains (personal, family, social) to buffer from crisis.The concept of thriving begins with the love of God and love of neighbor.The alignment of purpose and practice is central to thriving, regardless of changes over time.Recognizing ourselves as "God's masterpiece" and finding joy and contentment in that.Thriving as a dynamic, meaningful engagement in purposeful living, adapting to changing contexts.The idea that one can be struggling or even mentally ill and still be thriving is a "both/and" process.Thriving as an internal state and relational reality marked by an open heart and meaningful relationships, even on a stressful day.The journey of thriving involves self-discovery and healing, acknowledging both strengths and weaknesses.Being "habituated to doing good" and demonstrating one's "best self" in relationships.Dr. Pam King's Key TakeawaysThriving is relational and happens when we are deeply connected to other people, whether that be through our intimate relationships or our broader community.Thriving involves telling a truer story about life, that there is both beauty and brokenness.Thriving involves understanding who we are as God's masterpieces, that we all have strengths, and we all can thrive and find life in our weaknesses.Thriving involves discovering and pursuing what gets you up in the morning – your true north, what is most sacred to you.Thriving involves self-discovery and healing, which might mean being softer with ourselves so that we can find internal ease.

In this episode Sascha and I explore what it's like to interact with reality mediated by different kinds of brains. We realized that one good way to describe our current experience is this: Sascha is a potion mage and I am a potion. This feels just right to me. I revel in her jars and shelves, feel grateful for my tremendous luck this time around and move off in the world more self aware and oriented.Along the way we discuss lions and panthers, spiders and iguanas, orb creatures, horses and Melon bank.We hope you find some expansiveness in this romp through a few of the endless ways to be consciously incarnate. 

Some roads you never choose: pain, loss, betrayal. But you still find yourself walking them. Jesus did too. We're talking about how His journey to the cross meets us in our worst moments and gives us something better than just survival; it gives us a way forward.

In today's episode, we're sitting beside one of the oldest, most enduring teachers this world has ever known-  Water. Not only as a resource. Not only as a mirror. But as an Elder — one who has been here long before us and will remain long after. What does it mean to listen to Water as a living relative, a teacher, a carrier of memory? In this episode, we explore Water not only as a physical element but as an ancient presence — a witness to history, a carrier of stories, and a mirror for our emotional and spiritual landscapes. We'll reflect on how Water guides us, heals us, and invites us back into right relationship — with self, with Earth, and with time itself. So, bring your presence. Let's sit by the river's edge, or perhaps deep beneath the waves, and hear what Water has to share. As we explore how the language of how this elder  can guide the healing of both psyche and soul.

Send us a textTurning fifty isn't just about crossing an age threshold—it's about recognizing the human connections that build resilience throughout a lifetime. In this deeply personal episode, therapist Steve Bisson reflects on the relationships that have shaped his capacity for strength, growth, and recovery across five decades.Steve begins by honoring his parents, whose contrasting yet complementary influences established his foundation. His father, who lacked a paternal role model yet became an exceptional dad himself, taught Steve about honesty and critical thinking. His mother—a glass-ceiling breaker before the term existed—demonstrated determination through her 47-year career and instilled feminist principles that continue to guide Steve's professional approach. Together, they exemplified loyalty, work ethic, and perseverance that became cornerstones of his resilience framework.The episode takes listeners through Steve's "Three Musketeers" friendship with Joce and Frank—a bond spanning 38 years that has weathered countless challenges. Through emotional storytelling, Steve reveals how these lifelong connections, along with other key friendships, professional relationships, and even his therapy clients, have collectively taught him different aspects of resilience. Perhaps most touching is his tribute to his teenage daughters, who continue to teach him patience, emotional expression, and growth even as they navigate their own challenges.Steve's resilience journey illuminates how our capacity to overcome obstacles isn't built in isolation but through meaningful connections that sustain us. Whether you're approaching a milestone birthday, reflecting on your support network, or simply curious about the human factors behind emotional strength, this episode offers valuable insights into how relationships shape our ability to navigate life's inevitable challenges.
