As the world slows down in the quiet space between years, Chanie invites school leaders into a powerful reflection:What did this year build in you?Not what you accomplished…Not what you finished…Not what you checked off the list…But what was formed within you as a leader navigating exhaustion, momentum, setbacks, breakthroughs, culture challenges, enrollment pressures, financial strain, team transition, and the very real humanity of leadership.In this deeply personal episode, Chanie shares her own journey through 2025 — a year that stretched her capacity, reshaped her identity as a leader, and forced her to develop new rhythms of discernment, emotional regulation, faith, marriage, health, and operational leadership.And while the details are her own, the themes are universal for school leaders:The invisible weight you carryThe pressure to remember everythingThe instinct to manage every outcomeThe exhaustion of holding everyone's emotionsThe desire for relief without guiltThe dance of relationshipsThe need for rhythms, not more systemsThis episode is a mirror, reflecting back the capacity you've built this year, often without even noticing.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeThe Leadership Lessons Inside a Full Year of StretchWhy capacity is built in friction, stretch, and tension — not in easeHow slowing down becomes a leadership strategy, not a setbackThe hidden emotional labor behind writing This Can't Be NormalWhat the Five Gears framework revealed about school operations and leadershipWhy memory can't be your leadership system — and how rhythms carry what your brain shouldn'tHow marriage, teams, and leadership all share the same “choreography” of conflictWhat it means to return — and why trust is built in the returnHow faith, steadiness, and presence become leadership anchorsThe power of “living the question” instead of rushing toward clarityWhy you're not behind — you're in a season that's building youKey Insights for School Leaders1. Capacity is being built right now — even if it feels messy.Your stretch is the training ground for deeper leadership.2. Rhythms protect your energy more than systems ever will.This is the heart of SOE: predictable rhythms outperform reactive solutions.3. Slowing down keeps you steady — it never means you're behind.Hustle creates fragility. Rhythm builds...

Does Christmas have pagan roots? Do other holidays? Should Christians incorporate modern cultural norms as our own, or be set apart? Did Christianity steal Christmas from Saturnalia? The Winter Solstice? Are Christmas trees actually Druid? And should Christians appropriate cultural ideals/norms/rhythms into our own practices or should be be set apart from the world? Whether it's how we celebrate the holidays, to what media we take in, how we spend our money, how we talk, or our views on sexuality, where is the line between being in the world, and of the world?

Do you feel called to build a business, but are unsure how to do it with God instead of just for Him? Maybe you feel the nudge to step into Kingdom entrepreneurship, but you don't know what it actually looks like to steward a business biblically, not just practically. In this episode, I'm sharing a special training I taught for the Kingdom Impact Summit—created specifically for faith-led entrepreneurs who want to build and grow with God at the center. You'll learn what it means to lead as a Kingdom CEO, why worldly strategy alone will never sustain you, and how daily surrender becomes the foundation of true success. We'll walk through four powerful rhythms that will help you steward your business wisely and follow a biblical roadmap as a Kingdom CEO ready to move forward with clarity and purpose.

Send me a Text Message!In this episode, Mike reflects on the final stretch of 2025 — a year marked by intensity, and now, exhaustion. After running hot from August through early November, the season shifted, and life asked him to slow down, recover, and honor the deeper rhythms at play. This episode is an invitation to listen to your body, feel the energetic cycles, and stop trying to turn winter into summer.Key TakeawaysYou Are Always in a Season — Whether You Realize It or Not When you learn to live in tune with the energy around you, resistance disappears.Most of Us Try to Force Summer in the Middle of Winter The grind mindset disconnects you from your body, your truth, and your spiritual rhythm.Each Season Has a Role: Spring Plants, Summer Grows, Fall Harvests, Winter Rests Your business, body, and soul follow the same cycles — when you let them.Burnout Happens When You Ignore the Season You're In Pain and sickness are often messages from the body that you're out of sync.Goal Setting Isn't One-Size-Fits-All If goals light you up, great. If they drain you, there's another way to move forward.Notable Quotes“The only decision that I had to make was do I honor the natural cycles and seasons of life and allow kind of winter to set in? Or do I try to fight it and turn winter back into summer?”“Nature has cycles and nature has seasons.”“Most people try to fight life. They try to force life. They try to wrestle life to the ground. They try to dominate life.”“Whatever feels aligned for you, do it. Whatever feels unaligned for you, let it go and release it.”“Once you find that, you can let go of all the grind and the hustle and align with your soul's natural instincts and intuition.”Call to Action

In the second part of the Christmas Clean series, we dive into how to successfully navigate the Christmas season and catapult yourself into the New Year as a free man. The Christmas season, while the most wonderful time of the year, can also be the most "triggering". This episode focuses on routines, rhythms, and rituals. We discuss how the breaking of daily/weekly routines during the holidays, while offering a nice break from the nine-to-five grind, also presents dangers that can lead to temptation and set you back.

Tune into this Year's December Downshift & Uplift Episode. A yearly practice we always do, but that varies year by year based on the energy and focus we need. Join us for the full Reflection Ritual www.ReflectionRitual.com The December Downshift signals to our internal systems (and the people and projects around us) that it's time to start the slow down vs. get swirled into the year-end or holiday madness, followed by new year start pressure. It's the cyclical co-creation rhythm and structure we practice to mimic the natural world, who has managed to prosper for billlions of year (and gives us a template for how to evolve, grow and thrive). Think of the practice of downshifting at year end like driving a manual transmission car - you don't want to keep moving through Dec in 5th gear, at a high pace/ intensity/output still running on mental or emotional stressors from the weeks/months prior, and then hard downshift into neutral the last days of the year ... you'll blow out your system. And then likely need to recover. So you start depleted vs. ready to receive. It's a wiser to move through the gears one by one, over the course of weeks, so you can: savor your connections, deeply replenish, and receive from all you have created this past cycle. Making choices that support you to be healthy, clear and ready to receive inspiration, insight and clarity for focusing and co-creating next year. This year ... I tuned into for what was needed this December Downshift and realized we would also benefit with a Consciousness Uplift too. So we can really replenish our light + shake off the stress + see the progress and difference our effort and care has made + work with the inner "heart alchemy" already happening within us, including releasing inner patterns and past experiences that it's time to heal, let go and rise stronger and more compassionate from. Our exploration today is framed around the 4 themes below. I'll guide you through some reflective meditations + give you wisdom inquiries that support you to make choices in Dec + Jan that give you energy, support your system and your alignment. (Wisdom Inquiries here on my website) Ritual and Rhythm Reflect, Recognize. Release, Reset. Restore. Resonance. Receive. We will be shining a light on things like: the invisible impact your energy and effort has made where there's momentum created from incremental progress rituals and rhythms you can put in place now in Dec and Jan making choices from wisdom of what restores, replenishes vs. obligation, guilt, and FOMO For 16 years I've created this structure through December and January for the co-creators, leaders + people + teams willing to do things differently, wiser.

It's wild how the right beat can do what medicine alone can't. Whether it's a soft piano easing anxiety or a drumline shaking loose the stress we didn't even know we were holding, music has this ancient, almost sacred ability to reset the human spirit.Healing isn't just clinical — it's emotional, cultural, and deeply personal. And sometimes the fastest way back to ourselves is through sound. From hospital halls to living rooms to therapy spaces, rhythms of care are shaping real recovery stories every day.Because when the heart is out of tune, sometimes all it needs… is a song. #MusicOfHealing #HealingJourney #RhythmsOfCare #RecoveryCulture #MindBodySoul #WellnessWave #HolisticHealth #HealingVibesOnly #SoundTherapy #CareThatMovesYou #NextGenWellness #FeelTheEnergy

OR: White Fuge Balmore It would be a shame to waste a pretty fantastic title, so I put it there, even though the Thankful Episode doesn't get a specific title like that. Y'know, if you add a comma, it could be like... a rare spawn in Final Fantasy XI. "White Fuge, Balmore " should i play more FFXI? on the one hand, it was kinda impenetrable. but it was also kinda sick. but i don't have much free time. but the time i DO have i mostly waste, and i could probably squeeze in some Vanadiel. hmm Join the Bottle Crow Discord to check out our live posted show notes as well as chat with us and other listeners!

Are our brains log-normal? Why is breathing rhythmic? Why is there a hum in the universe? Do our hearts beat chaotically? Are the (stock) markets random and ‘unbounded'? What is a market? How is Mercury perturbed? What has sleep-wake cycles? Must you go up and down with the sun? What causes whirlpools in a smooth flowing river? Where do rhythms reside? Is there an equivalent of homeostasis in the markets? What is your sigh rate just now? Are you depressed? Could you move fast, vocalize, eat and breathe at the same time? Why do we hyperventilate when we are anxious? Is there phase lock-in between (say) moving and (quantized) breathing? What role do feedback loops or self organization play in regulating complex systems? Do risks become more systemic in a complex & connected world? Why are flight transportation systems more easily perturbed than bio-physical systems? In general, are emergent systems less easily perturbed? How is degeneracy different from redundancy? How do certain monks (?) go without breathing for a few hours? Do order and disorder lie on the same continuum? &, must we always build bottom-up?

Hank Shreve joins me on episode 148.Hank started playing harmonica at age eight, and that has remained his true love despite learning various other instruments. He explains how his drumming background shapes the rhythmic feel of his harmonica playing, and how blues opened the door to everything from Latin influences to funk. Hank reflects on opening for Paul DeLay, working with Curtis Salgado, leading The Hank Shreve Band with his father Bill on bass, and broadening his musical output across albums like Loosen Up, Trouble, and That Way. He also discusses teaching at festivals, exploring jazz standards, winning several music awards, and the importance of always making the audience want to dance.Links:The Hank Shreve Band: https://www.hankshreveband.com/Howard Levy's Rhythms of The Breath tuition books: https://levyland.com/book-rhythms-of-the-breathZack Pomerleau playing rack harmonica with drums and guitar: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ke3XUN8agbAHank's Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/hank.shreveThe Hank Shreve Band Band Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/HankShreveBand/Music Masters Teaching Studio: https://www.musicmastersstudio.com/teacher-roster/hank-shreve-guitar-and-drum-lessons-eugene/Videos:Hank's YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/hankshreveMike Moothart: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ls6ZxhIU_es&list=RDLs6ZxhIU_esPodcast website:https://www.harmonicahappyhour.comDonations:If you want to make a voluntary donation to help support the running costs of the podcast then please use this link (or visit the podcast website link above):https://paypal.me/harmonicahappyhour?locale.x=en_GBSpotify Playlist: Also check out the Spotify Playlist, which contains most of the songs discussed in the podcast:https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5QC6RF2VTfs4iPuasJBqwT?si=M-j3IkiISeefhR7ybm9qIQPodcast sponsors:This podcast is sponsored by SEYDEL harmonicas - visit the oldest harmonica factory in the world at www.seydel1847.com or on Facebook or Instagram at SEYDEL HARMONICAS--------------------------------Blue Moon Harmonicas: https://bluemoonharmonicas.comSupport the show

Vanyfox is a DJ/producer taking the Portugal-born dance music genre batida to the world. Raised on the outskirts of Lisbon near the Quinta do Mocho neighborhood (home to many batida pioneers including Marfox and DJ Nervoso) and based in France, Vanyfox discusses his early memories and the emotions, experiences and production techniques that influence his sound, which borrows from trap, deep house and the rhythms of kuduro, kizomba and zouk. We talk about the deep life questions behind his Melodias e Choros EP, working with Montreal's Moonshine crew, his Angolan-Zairean heritage, the lineage of the coxes and foxes, his approach to DJing and his unique experiences traveling to Ivory Coast, Zanzibar, Saudi Arabia, and Ethiopia.

In a gloriously shambolic podcast debut of On The Record, Brian Wise and Michael Mackenzie briefly wrestle with technology; however, once the cockpit stops flashing warnings, they settle into a free-wheeling conversation about music, ageing audiences, dodgy voting scandals, Patti Smith, Beatles archaeology, sci-fi mind melds, and why matinee gigs are the greatest invention since the flat white. Wise and Mackenzie first teamed up when they co-presented Dig On The Radio, a summer season of music and performances on ABC Local Radio between 2003 and 2006. Since then, the pair have kept in touch both on and off the air, and decided there might be literally dozens of people eager to hear their meanderings in this new addition to the Rhythms stable. In this debut episode Michael and Brian meander through: The annual Rhythms Readers Poll, which, shockingly, people have actually tried to rig. (Move over Florida.) Why older gig-goers prefer concerts that end before the evening news, and the uncertain future for finding new music audiences via radio. Mavis Staples' new album, Sad and Beautiful World, which both agree is so good it may actually restore faith in humanity. A detour into Tom Jones, who's made excellent records while the world wasn't looking. Todd Snider, the mayor of East Nashville and patron saint of long, funny songs.

If your days feel like they're moving faster than your heart can keep up, this episode will breathe fresh peace into your hurried, overwhelmed world. You don't need a slower season to feel centered — you need simple, sustainable rhythms that anchor you in God's presence right in the middle of real life. In today's episode, I'm sharing three daily rhythms every working Christian mom can use, even in chaotic seasons, to help you slow your spirit, reconnect with God, and move through your day with more peace and less pressure. These rhythms are simple, grace-filled, and practical — no long routines or perfect quiet times required. Whether you're listening in the car line, between meetings, or folding laundry, you'll find tools you can use immediately. ✨ What You'll Learn in This Episode 1. The Slow Morning Reset Why 10–20 seconds with God before the world gets loud can change your entire day — even if your morning is chaotic. 2. Micro-Margins of Peace (30–90 second pauses) How small, intentional moments throughout your day help regulate your emotions, calm your nervous system, and reconnect you to God's presence. 3. The “Pause Before You React” Rhythm How to build a tiny gap between what happens to you and how you respond — and how this two-second pause invites the Holy Spirit to settle your heart before stress does.
Dom Fusco experienced his first spiritual transformation when he was baptized at age 23. His second came a few years later, when a cardiac arrest caused him to collapse during a run, leaving him “flatline dead” for two and a half minutes. Surviving that moment made him realize that God wasn't finished with him yet. This week Dom talks with Nate Dewberry about those two turning points and how they now shape his work as a content creator and fitness coach – helping people build both physical wellness and spiritual strength.

In this Advent conversation, writer and spiritual director Megan Nilsen helps us slow down, breathe deeply, and step into a deason that's often more chaotic than contemplative. Instead of chasing a perfect Advent, Megan invites us to an uncluttered posture - one that welcomes God in our limitations, our longings, and our everyday routines. Together, we explore: How to release the pressure of a "picture perfect" Advent What Scripture reveals about waiting, hope, and holy anticipation Why formation begins with honesty, not performance Rhythms that ground our emotions and quiet our hurried minds How to make space for God in the middle of real life, not ideal life If you're craving a season that feels more like rest than striving, presence over productivity, and sacred attentiveness instead of overwhelm, this episode will gently guide you back to the heart of Advent.

Welcome back for Season 3! Pastor Jason opens up about hitting a wall and taking an unexpected mini-sabbatical to find recovery and rest. This candid conversation explores the critical need for healthy spiritual rhythms in a culture that pushes us toward burnout and constant busy-ness.In this episode, we discuss:The difference between a frantic "vacation culture" and genuine, life-giving Sabbath rest.Why the first thing Christians drop when life gets busy is often the "click track" (rhythm) of their faith community.The danger of putting our confidence in self-sufficiency and the work of ministry, rather than living from a place of already being beloved by Christ.What it looks like to strive to "enter God's rest" (Hebrews 4) and live from it, even as a busy parent, student, or leader.If you are exhausted by the constant pressure to be productive, this conversation is your permission to pause and find soul care in Christ.To connect, email podcast@zionclearlake.org

Creativity through the lens of a Nature Inspired Mentor and Certified Life Coach,"It's the non linear logic, the ability for us to tap into a side of ourselves that doesn't have to have a reason."Since my earliest managerial position, I have always focused on the development of platforms and people. Whether it was building world class operating systems at Microsoft, changing the way we listen to audio online with RealNetworks tech, managing artists from Cirque du Soleil, introducing nature-inspired technologies on EU projects, or providing new tools for entrepreneurs to design their vision of the future, for more than 25 years, I have been helping people and businesses confidently excel as they contribute to the whole. My unconventional hair, timeless experience, and versatile vocabulary allows me to easily connect diverse concepts and people, making me a potent bridge that bridges gaps.For the last 14 years, I have had honor of being a citizen of Damanhur in Italy—one of the largest spiritual eco-communities in the world. This adds an extra level of applied social design to my experience.Always eager to learn, I studied with some of the greatest minds in bio-inspired sciences, gaining a masters degree in Futuro Vegetale (Vegetal Future): plants, social innovation, design at the University of Florence. I have also studied Biomimicry for Social Innovation and Product Development. I took all these studies and my work with EU products into EU grant projects in product design and communications management.Today, what I love more than ever is to work with individuals and small groups as Nature-Inspired Mentor and ICF PCC Life Coach. My extensive background and research into Plant Neurobiology, Creativity, Social Innovation, Design, and EcoSystem Thinking gives me a unique set of talents to help individuals conceptualize, design, and develop the professional projects they dream of working on.With my roots firmly planted in the arts, communication, science, and the avant-garde, I use all the tools in my toolbox to empower creatives multipotentialities to take action with confidence and become the conscious leaders of their lives. https://tigrillagardenia.com/https://www.facebook.com/tigrillagardeniahttps://www.youtube.com/@tigrillagardeniahttps://www.instagram.com/tigrillagardeniahttps://www.linkedin.com/in/tigrillagardenia/Send us a text

This Week at Genesis | Nehemiah 12 Daena led us through Nehemiah 12 by reminding us that the true work of renewal is not the rebuilding of stones but the rebuilding of souls. Nehemiah shows us a community returning to the rhythms that reshape the heart—holy purification, right worship, and faithful offering. Through Scripture, church tradition, and prophetic warnings, we're invited to see how easily the human heart drifts toward forgetfulness and self-reliance. From Hosea to Deuteronomy to Psalms, the story is the same: when God blesses us, we're tempted to forget Him. Yet the call of Nehemiah 12 is a return—a recommitment to worship, holiness, and generosity as practices that realign our souls to God. This week was a sober but hope-filled reminder: renewal begins when worship is restored, when idolatry is confronted, and when our offerings flow from a heart wholly belonging to God.
If your days feel rushed and your soul feels weary, this episode is for you.

When we truly know God's Word, grow in His presence, and go where He leads, we'll find the peace and confidence our hearts have been longing for.You'll learn:What it means to know God and let His Word shape your identity.How to grow in faith through rest, prayer, and connection with others.How to go and live on mission in your everyday life — even in the small moments.Why God's rhythms invite us to slow down instead of speed up.Resources From This Episode:Join our four-part Advent series on The Proverbs 31 Ministries Podcast — find hope, peace, joy, and love as you prepare your heart for Christmas.Subscribe to the Proverbs 31 Ministries email — stay in the know about all God is doing.Download the First 5 mobile app — join our Advent study, and spend five minutes a day in God's Word.The Go Bible for Kids — help your children fall in love with God's Word through fun illustrations and easy-to-understand truth.Click here to download a transcript of this episodeWant More on This Topic?
