Returning Home, Part One: The Soul's Transition In this first installment of her three-part Returning Home series, Cheryl tenderly explores the sacred passage between life and Spirit. With wisdom and warmth, she invites listeners to reframe death not as an ending, but as a return—a homecoming for the soul. Through gentle conversation and spiritual insight, Cheryl sheds light on profound themes such as free will, suicide, emotional healing, and the soul's pre-planned “checkpoints” along its journey. She offers comfort and clarity for those navigating loss, reminding us that the spirit world is never far and that love continues beyond the veil. This episode opens the heart to a new understanding of life, death, and divine timing—one that brings peace to the human experience and trust in the soul's eternal design. — If it's Light, it's Right™!

Tom Brokaw famously described America's World War II servicemen as the “Greatest Generation”. But according to the historian David Nasaw, the Americans who fought in the Second World War are better understood as The Wounded Generation. His eponymous new book describes the pain and hardships that 16 million veterans endured upon their return home - a tragic story of PTSD, racism and family breakup. Brokaw celebrated the nobility with which these ex-soldiers got on with civilian life without either complaining or even talking about the war. But for Nasaw, this silence wasn't just stoicism—it was often undiagnosed and sometimes even untreatable trauma.1. WWII Was America's Longest and Most Brutal War The average soldier served nearly three years in uniform (compared to less than one year in WWI), with 75% deployed overseas. Combat on the European front was relentless, especially in the final year, with severe manpower shortages keeping GIs on the front lines for weeks or months without relief.2. Millions Returned with Undiagnosed PTSD Veterans came home with what we now recognize as PTSD, but it was neither diagnosed nor treated. Unable to talk about their experiences, many self-medicated with alcohol. The silence wasn't stoicism—it was trauma. Writers like Salinger and Vonnegut could only process their experiences through fiction years later.3. The GI Bill Excluded Most Black Veterans While celebrated as transformative legislation, the GI Bill's benefits were distributed by local officials. In the South, this meant Black veterans were systematically denied college access (segregated schools were full) and unemployment benefits (they were told to return to sharecropping). Only Northern Black veterans like Harry Belafonte, John Coltrane, and Tito Puente could fully access their benefits.4. America Faced Its Worst Housing Crisis Ever No homes had been built during the Depression or the war years, creating unprecedented shortages when 16 million servicemen returned. This housing crisis, combined with fears of renewed economic depression, added to veterans' anxiety about rebuilding their lives. Politicians like JFK and Jacob Javits fought hard for veterans' housing subsidies.5. The War's Aftermath Lasted Decades 1946 saw record divorce rates and increased lynchings as racial tensions exploded. Veterans who liberated concentration camps or survived POW camps (especially in the Pacific) carried lifelong trauma. Nasaw's central message: wars don't end with peace treaties—the harm to soldiers and civilians lasts for generations.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

All eyes are on the Middle East as a truce was reached between Israel and Palestine. Galway has a special connection to the conflict this week as Sarah Clancy, an activist in the Global Sumud Flotilla, returned home. She recounted the horrific ordeal she and other activists went through to us on Galway Talks. ​We also looked at electricity, phone connectivity, and internet coverage this week. The Maam Valley has had patchy connectivity over the past few weeks and months. We went out there and spoke to Regina Keane of Keane's shop and Bar in Maam, but also to some of the locals, some of whom are relying on cellar conectivity to get a kidney transplant and other medical appointments. They explained their frustration about the infrastructure in the Maam Valley and Connemara. ​The Budget was also a big topic this week, and the political parties went head-to-head as to whether it was a good budget or a bad budget. The government have said that this is a budget that will be good for the economy, while the opposition asks what is in it for middle-class, working people. We had many debates during the week, and one of those was with Senator Anne Rabbitte of Fianna Fáil and Sinn Féin Deputy Mairead Farrell. They went through the pros and cons of Budget 2026. ​Now, Claddagh Watch have been hitting out this week at the loss of their flags. Nearly a month ago, they were taken from O'Brien's Bridge on Chilean Independence Day and have yet to be returned. It is a big cost to the organisation themselves, but also a serious issue for people who may be getting into difficulty on the waterways around Galway. Arthur Carr, their founder, described their frustration and called for people to return the flags to them. ​Parking was again a big issue in the city this week, and Councillor Niall McNelis has told us that from this week, they will be erecting better signage to tell people what people need to do to pay for parking in Galway City. ​Finally, a Mullagh woman will be climbing Mera Peak to raise much-needed funds for the Galway branch of Parkinson's Ireland. She recounted one amazing story whereby she saved one of her friend's lives on a hike.

My guest is DJ Shipley, a former Tier 1 operator Navy SEAL and now a top public educator on how to build mental and physical health and reach top-level performance in any endeavor. DJ's life is one marked by extraordinary strivings, wins, setbacks and comebacks that together have shaped his approach to overcoming challenges of all kinds and to daily life. DJ explains a regimen of clear, practical steps and a mental stance that can allow anyone—male, female, young or old—to build extreme resilience of mind and body and to be successful in family and work. We also discuss his experience with new, emerging treatments for addiction, PTSD and depression that many people, not just veterans, are benefiting from. The tools DJ describes to “stack small wins” and to be ultra-intentional about your mindset will be of immense benefit to anyone wishing to achieve the best version of themselves.

Episode OverviewIn this insightful episode of Nomadic Diaries, host Doreen Cumberford re-interviews Angie Weinberger, a renowned expert in global mobility and repatriation. Angie shares her deep knowledge about the complex journey of returning “home” after years abroad, unraveling common myths and real-life challenges that expats and global nomads often face.Key Topics DiscussedReverse Culture Shock:Angie explains why returning to your home country can sometimes be more challenging than moving abroad in the first place. Many expats idealize their homeland, only to have reality fall short upon their return.Intercultural Adjustment:Even brief international experiences can fundamentally change personal values, communication styles, and identities, often more than most repats expect.Common Repatriation Challenges:Psychological adjustment and feelings of disconnectOverwhelming administrative burdens (immigration, documentation, logistics)Integrating international spouses and managing children's adjustment, especially in different education systemsEmployment concerns—lacking positions at home, rebuilding professional networksFinancial considerations, especially planning around multinational pensions, taxes, and retirementPersonal Transformation:Both Angie and Doreen reflect on how global experiences permanently alter the “core” of a person, and the importance of articulating these changes in one's home environment.Practical Tips for Repatriates:Take things one step at a time - utilize checklists for admin tasksSeek out professional guidance early (tax consultants, financial advisors, coaches)Use journaling, mindfulness, or other reflective practices to process changeBuild a support system of others who understand the international journeyAcknowledge both the visible and invisible elements involved in moving “home”Special Considerations for Retirees:Managing pensions, tax liabilities, and social security across multiple countriesPlanning the next phase of life - “rewirement” rather than just retirementAdmin Burden:Do not underestimate the complexity and emotional weight of bureaucracy involved with every international move—even frequent movers make this mistake.Angie's Top AdviceThe most common mistake? Underestimating the impact of reverse culture shock and mis-attributing feelings of discomfort to the wrong causes. Recognize that it's a normal psychological transition, not a sign of depression or failure.Connect with Angie Weinberger:Company: Global People TransitionsEmail: angela@globalpeopletransitions.comLinkedIn: Angie WeinbergerBlog: Global People Club SandwichWebsite: ngweinberger.chThank you for tuning in to Nomadic Diaries!Support the showHome is Where Your Story Crosses Borders!We aim to inspire expat solutions, by helping you navigate global living with Confidence.

Hi, I'm Elizabeth — and I'm so glad you're here for the very first episode of Where It's Quiet. I launched this podcast on my birthday because birthdays have always felt like threshold moments for me: the chance to look back, look forward, and lean into what actually matters. This space is about returning — not reinventing. After years of striving and creating a previous show called Elevate Potential, I traded hustle for stillness and started learning what it means to live in alignment and fulfillment. It's less about proving anything and more about showing up, walking slowly, and listening to what our bodies and hearts already know. Quiet wasn't accidental for me as a kid — I used to sneak out to sit on the porch under the stars with my guitar and whatever words wanted to come out. That silence was alive; it gave me room to create, heal, and discover who I was. That curious, creative girl is still inside me, and this podcast is an invitation to rediscover yours. Much of what I'm talking about comes from being embodied — trusting the wisdom of the body over the endless churn of thought. Small practices like widening your peripheral vision on a walk or simply putting one foot in front of the other can open up intuition and clarity in ways the mind alone can't. I walked the Camino de Santiago — 200 miles over 14 days — and it taught me how powerful the rhythm of being can be. On that walk I noticed stories I'd been carrying that weren't true, let them go, and felt lighter almost overnight. Those quiet moments were where real change and insight showed up, not from overthinking, but from listening. In a culture that celebrates noise and hustle, choosing quiet feels radical. Here we'll create space for reflection, journaling, breathwork, and simple practices that help you return to yourself, cultivate flow, and live more aligned — one small step at a time. Before we go: where do you find your quiet? A trail, your kitchen table with coffee, the car when you're still for a moment — wherever it is, go there this week and notice what comes up. Thank you for being here with me today on my birthday — welcome to Where It's Quiet.

What can we do when we find ourselves caught in the mud and the mire and the muck of sin? What do we do when we find ourselves falling off the wall and we feel like life has shattered into a million little pieces? King David of Israel experienced this in his life and wrote a psalm that will help guide us back to our merciful, restorative God.

In the 12 months leading up to April 2024, 30,000 Irish citizens who had been living abroad returned to Ireland. A similar number of Irish emigrants returned to Irish shores the previous year, in the 12 months leading up to April 2023.Who are these people, why are they coming home and what do they think of the Ireland they've returned to? Today, on the In the News podcast, we speak to three Irish people who recently returned to Ireland after years of building a life overseas. Are Irish infrastructure and healthcare as bad as we believe when compared with other systems abroad? What is it that pulls people back? And are they back for the long haul, or is reintegration back into Irish society too difficult after a long stint overseas?Presented by Sorcha Pollak. Produced by Suzanne Brennan. Hosted on Acast.

"And I think that's why it took me 20 years to come back to the church is because it was never enough. Fear was not enough to get me to come back to the church. Shame was not enough to get me to come back to the church. Honestly, it was love, like, love brought me back to the church. So, you know, I've got too much proof. I'm still in the culinary world, there's still temptation, still surrounded by all the same stuff. But I pray every night. I do all the things right? I read my scriptures. I go to church. I take the sacrament. Those things that we teach the little kids in Primary, do it.

An education specialist who left Somalia as a child when the civil war broke out in 1991 has now returned to support the Ministry of Education as they expand national testing.  The programme which enabled this specialist, named Shire Salad, to return — Migration for Development in Africa or MIDA — is run by the International Organization for Migration (IOM) and recruits diaspora experts who have  a “personal desire to give back."MIDA then pairs these experts with local professionals who work together to advance the development of hospitals, schools and other institutions. While the diaspora experts ultimately leave, the hope is that their skills will remain.  UN News' Naima Sawaya spoke with Mr. Salad about his experience returning to Somalia after so many years.

Natalie interviews Rabbi BenTzion Kravitz who made aliyah in December 2024 from Los Angeles to Jerusalem. Rabbi Kravitz is the founder of Jews for Judaism, which aims to teach Jews how to think critically and embrace their Jewish heritage, so that they can repel the advances of Christian missionaries.
