His journey is a profound testament to post-traumatic growth. After his military service, Jonathan faced a profound period of darkness, grappling with the physical pain of service-connected injuries, the grief of personal loss, and the isolation that led him to the brink of suicide. His path to healing began with a powerful personal intervention and a transformative period in Costa Rica, where he rediscovered golf not just as a game, but as a therapeutic tool for mental wellness and a catalyst for his new mission. Driven by his own experience, Jonathan founded the Warrior Golf Academy to create the supportive community he found lacking. His vision extends far beyond teaching the golf swing. He is building a comprehensive "technical school" for the golf industry, providing veterans and first responders with the skills and connections to build careers as players, caddies, club managers, and agronomy staff. By focusing on belonging, purpose, and tangible career pathways, Jonathan's work directly combats the isolation that leads to the tragic statistic of "22 a day." Today, Jonathan leads a growing movement from the Academy's home in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. He is a certified PGA HOPE instructor and a passionate advocate for leveraging the game's unique disciplines—focus, patience, and incremental improvement—to rewire the mind and heal the spirit. His work ensures that those who have served their country have a welcoming community they can return to, proving that our deepest wounds can indeed become the source of our greatest purpose.

In this episode, Marsha discusses the difference between conscious and subconscious values and highlights the frustration that arises when one's conscious goals clash with subconscious beliefs. Throughout the episode, Marsha explains that while conscious values represent only 5% of our mindset, the remaining 95% is governed by the subconscious. She illustrates how this disconnect can manifest in daily life, where individuals may claim to value freedom or health but find themselves trapped in patterns that contradict those values. Marsha emphasizes that true alignment can only be achieved when both conscious and subconscious values are in harmony.

What if the smallest “thank you” could transform your closest relationships? In this conversation, Jessica Colarco and Kelly explore the profound impact of gratitude on relationships and emotional well-being. They discuss how expressing appreciation not only benefits the recipient but also enhances the giver's happiness. Through personal anecdotes and scientific studies, they highlight the importance of intentional gratitude in everyday interactions, emphasizing that small acts of appreciation can lead to significant positive changes in our connections with others. The discussion also touches on the vulnerability involved in expressing gratitude and how it can strengthen bonds between individuals.

A simple thank you can create a deep shift in relationships. Gratitude can be expressed in small, everyday actions. Vulnerability in expressing gratitude strengthens connections. Intentional gratitude can lead to increased happiness and well-being. Gratitude creates a ripple effect that spreads positivity. Specificity in gratitude makes it more impactful.

Ripple Effect brings back some dearly departed characters, but there are also shenanigans afoot. And we did not see that twist coming. Once we find out that the whole universe jumping was planned, we're not sure it makes sense. It just seems to ask more questions than it answers. We love this episode. It's a lot of fun, but there were some missed opportunities. Who would you have brought back on an SG1 team just for a little cameo? Why wasn't the cast of Wormhole X-Treme one of the alternate SG1s?  We did take a little issue with Landry refusing to allow time to find a solution to get all the stranded teams home. His SGC isn't under any immediate threat like some of the other worlds are. He couldn't give them 24 hours? Finally, buckle up folks, cos Wagner has chimed in on time dilation and the issues with Epiphany.

On a crisp November day, "The Valley Today" welcomes listeners with its signature blend of warmth and wit. Host Janet Michael and Captain Warren Gosnell of the Frederick County Sheriff's Office kick off their monthly Public Safety Thursday segment with playful banter about radio nostalgia, technical hiccups, and the quirks of live broadcasting. Their camaraderie sets a relaxed tone, inviting the audience into a conversation that would soon delve into the heart of community service. Navigating Change and Tradition As the discussion unfolds, Janet and Captain Gosnell reminisce about the evolution of radio technology and the enduring challenges of adapting to new tools. Their exchange highlights not only the humor in everyday mishaps but also the resilience required in both broadcasting and public safety. Captain Gosnell's anecdotes about his new vehicle and the familiar roads of the Shenandoah Valley paint a vivid picture of local life, complete with autumn leaves and the ever-present specter of roadwork. The Valor Awards: Recognizing Bravery Transitioning to the evening's main event, Janet introduces the upcoming Top of Virginia Regional Chamber's Valor Awards, a ceremony dedicated to honoring first responders and citizens who have gone above and beyond in moments of crisis. Captain Gosnell emphasizes the significance of such recognition, sharing personal stories of lifesaving interventions and the humility that comes with being acknowledged for simply "doing the job." He reflects on the emotional impact of these awards—not just for law enforcement, but for EMTs, firefighters, and ordinary citizens whose quick thinking has saved lives. The Pendulum of Public Perception Throughout the conversation, Captain Gosnell addresses the shifting public perception of first responders. He notes that while moments of extraordinary heroism—such as those witnessed during 9/11—can elevate the status of public safety professionals, negative incidents can just as quickly cast a shadow over the entire field. This pendulum effect, he explains, underscores the importance of community support and positive reinforcement, both for morale and for the continued dedication of those in uniform. Celebrating Citizen Heroes Importantly, the Valor Awards do not solely spotlight professionals. Janet and Captain Gosnell discuss the vital role of private citizens—children who call 911 in emergencies, bystanders who administer CPR, and neighbors who step in during crises. These stories, often overlooked by the media, demonstrate the profound impact that ordinary people can have when they choose to act. Captain Gosnell encourages listeners to learn basic lifesaving skills, such as CPR and Narcan administration, reminding everyone that heroism is not limited to those with badges. The Ripple Effect of Good Deeds As the conversation draws to a close, the pair turns to the broader effects of intervention. Saving a life, Janet observes, can have far-reaching consequences, touching families and communities in ways that may never be fully known. Captain Gosnell echoes this sentiment, sharing how even unsuccessful rescue attempts are deeply appreciated by those affected. The message is clear: every act of courage, no matter how small, contributes to the fabric of a safer, more compassionate community. Looking Ahead With gratitude and anticipation, Janet and Captain Gosnell conclude the show by congratulating the evening's Valor Award recipients. Their conversation serves as a powerful reminder that heroism is all around us—sometimes in uniform, sometimes in everyday clothes, but always in the willingness to help.

"Being part of something is an essential human need. When you feel excluded, it becomes a real barrier in life. Don't be too afraid to say the wrong thing. Be more focused on asking the right questions." —Hannah PonsfordWhen you're seen as different, every day can feel like an uphill climb—and those closest to you often hurt quietly alongside, trying to bridge two worlds but unsure how. The longing for real acceptance and togetherness runs deep on both sides, and too often, everyone ends up feeling alone.Hannah Ponsford knows this from both sides, having grown up as the sister of someone with a disability and later becoming an advocate and storyteller. She is passionate about spreading the message that small acts of openness and support can nurture true belonging—for everyone involved. Expect real talk about family ups and downs, navigating awkward moments, tips for more welcoming communities, powerful advocacy, school hurdles, and how small actions ripple outward—listen for stories and insights that prove everyone deserves to belong. Connect with Heather: WebsiteFacebook InstagramLinkedInEpisode Highlights:02:24 Living with a Disability in the Family07:08 Breaking the Ice: Social Awkwardness Around Disabilities13:26 Unmasking “Wholesome”— Misconceptions and Social Labels18:16  The Cost of Exclusion: Why Inclusive Schools Matter22:53 Advice to Siblings: Balancing Care, Guilt, and Personal Dreams24:15 Parent Power: What Moms Need to Hear28:08 Our Kind of Normal Resources:

Title:  “The Ripple Effect: Maggie Luken's Journey of Loss, Love, and Life”  

In this episode of the Addict IIAthlete podcast, Coach Blu Robinson speaks with Sathiya Sam about the complexities of pornography addiction, its impact on individuals and relationships, and the importance of open conversations about sexuality. Sathiya shares his personal journey of overcoming a 15-year addiction and discusses the significance of community support, self-awareness, and shifting one's identity in the recovery process. The conversation also touches on the emotional and relational ramifications of addiction, the role of faith, and practical steps for recognizing and addressing problematic behaviors. Take Aways  Sathiya Sam shares his personal journey of overcoming pornography addiction. The average age of first exposure to pornography is between eight and twelve years old. Open conversations about sex and intimacy are crucial for healthy development. Pornography addiction is often linked to intimacy issues rather than sexual gratification. Betrayal trauma can significantly impact relationships when one partner struggles with addiction. Behavioral addictions operate differently than substance addictions, requiring unique approaches to recovery. Recognizing signs of addiction includes changes in viewing patterns and social commitments. Emotional withdrawal can be a significant indicator of dependency on pornography. The relationship bank account concept emphasizes the importance of honesty and integrity in relationships. Finding purpose beyond addiction can aid in recovery and personal growth.

When it comes to love, the secular world has plenty to say. Turn on the television, radio, or explore the internet, and you'll find advice on every type of relationship, from friendships to getting along with your parents, and of course — advice on romantic relationships. People are clamoring to figure love out…but what does the Bible say about love?1 Corinthians 13:4–5 says, “Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.”Love isn't about control or about protecting our own interests. It's not about winning, because true love doesn't keep score. God's Word gives us a beautiful picture of what love can be when we seek to follow the Lord: patient, kind, selfless, humble, and forgiving. That's the kind of love we should strive to build with family, friends, and a potential mate.If we want to take Paul's wisdom in Corinthians to heart, we must first think about what the other person needs in our relationships. And you know, if you practice this model, you'll find that soon enough, your own needs will be met, too! Pure love has a ripple effect.Let it wash over you!Let's pray. Lord, your relationship to us is perfect. Help us love as you love. In Jesus' name, amen. Change your shirt, and you can change the world! Save 15% Off your entire purchase of faith-based apparel + gifts at Kerusso.com with code KDD15.

When the federal government grinds to a halt, the effects extend far beyond the paychecks of federal employees. In this episode of "The Valley Today," host Janet Michael talks with Les Sinclair, Communications and PR Manager for the Blue Ridge Area Food Bank, to unpack the cascading consequences of a government shutdown on local families, businesses, and the broader community. More Than Just Federal Workers Les quickly dispelles the myth that only federal workers feel the pinch during a shutdown. In Virginia alone, over 249,000 military personnel and 30,000 federal employees face immediate financial uncertainty. However, as Les explains, the ripple effect is much broader. When these workers stop spending, local restaurants see fewer customers, wait staff lose tips, and small businesses experience a drop in sales. This economic slowdown forces more families—many for the first time—to seek help from food banks and pantries. Rising Costs, Shrinking Paychecks Transitioning to the topic of inflation, Janet and Les highlight the mounting challenges families face as the cost of essentials like food, housing, and childcare continues to climb. Les notes that in just three years, food prices have risen by 18%, housing by over 20%, and daycare costs in some areas now outpace college tuition. For many, paychecks have not kept up, and a missed paycheck due to a shutdown can quickly spiral into a crisis. Food Banks: A Lifeline in Uncertain Times Amid these challenges, the Blue Ridge Area Food Bank and its network of 400 partner pantries serve as a critical safety net. Les describes how the food bank sources food from large corporations, local stores, and the USDA, ensuring that no one who seeks help is turned away. The organization's "Food Finder" tool makes it easy for anyone in need to locate nearby pantries, and emergency food boxes are always available. Breaking the Stigma Despite the growing need, many people hesitate to seek help due to stigma or misconceptions about food pantries. Janet and Les address these concerns head-on, emphasizing that pantries offer high-quality, nutritious food—including fresh produce and name-brand items—without judgment. They also explain that while some data collection is necessary for government-supplied food, the process is designed to be as respectful and unobtrusive as possible. Community Support: More Than Just Donations As the conversation draws to a close, both Janet and Les encourage listeners to support their local food banks and pantries—not just with food or money, but also with their time. Volunteers are always in need, whether for administrative work, driving, or simply lending a hand during busy periods. Les reminds the audience that every dollar donated to Blue Ridge Area Food Bank can provide more than three meals, making financial contributions especially impactful. Looking Ahead Ultimately, this conversation shines a light on the invisible challenges many families face during a government shutdown and underscores the vital role of community organizations in bridging the gap. As the holidays approach and the need increases, Janet and Les urge everyone to get involved, break down barriers, and ensure that no one in the Valley goes hungry.

This week I sat down with Paige Goldstein, founder of The Ripple Effect and co-host of Fill Your Sol Podcast, to explore what it means to build a personal brand rooted in self-awareness and authenticity.

We also talk about how consciousness influences how we show up IRL and digitally, what it means to use be an 'authentic storyteller' online, and how Paige defines happiness.

In this powerful episode, we challenge the modern myth that “good parenting” means self-sacrifice at all costs. Instead, we explore what it really takes to show up strong for your family — starting with how you lead yourself. From the societal pressure to “do it all” to the quiet burnout no one talks about, we unpack how ignoring your own needs doesn't make you a better parent — it makes it harder to be the present, grounded leader your kids actually need. We redefine self-care as self-leadership and break down the mindset shifts, personal responsibility, and daily actions that help you parent from a place of strength — not survival. If you've ever felt guilty for wanting more time, more space, or more growth… this conversation will give you permission to take it — and a plan to model a healthier path for your family. Because your kids don't need a perfect parent. They need one who's fully alive.

Investing in health and science research isn't just about curing diseases. It has huge impacts across society, from creating jobs to driving economic growth to boosting national competitiveness. Study shows that every $ invested in the life sciences industry generates $3 in GDP globally, whereas every job created in the life sciences industry generates five in the global economy. Life sciences are one of the most powerful engines of prosperity, yet many governments still underestimate their economic return.In this episode of The Ripple Effect: Investing in Life Sciences, host Dan Riskin speaks with Patrick Horber, President of Novartis International, and David Gluckman, Vice Chairman of Investment Banking and Global Head of Healthcare at Lazard. Together, they break down the outsized economic impact of life science innovation, from trillions in US bioscience output to China's meteoric rise as a global R&D hub. The conversation delves into the ways governments can support innovation with not just money, but through policy and regulation; plus, some of the best ways that countries can help the sector secure investment, talent, and long-term growth.This limited series, produced by GZERO's Blue Circle Studios in partnership with Novartis, examines how life science innovation plays a vital role in fulfilling that commitment. Host: Dan RiskinGuests: Patrick Horber, David Gluckman  Subscribe to the GZERO World with Ian Bremmer Podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or your preferred podcast platform, to receive new episodes as soon as they're published.
