Podcasts about seeking

(Presented by Lisa Bishop) When you are facing a difficult situation and you don't know what to do, who or what do you turn to? Is your first instinct to cry out to God? Do you attempt to figure things out on your own? Or perhaps you turn to a friend, relying on their advice? For the record, seeking the advice of wise friends is a sound thing to do as Proverbs 12:15 reminds us, “The way of fools seems right to them, but the wise listen to advice.” The thing to consider is, do you run to people before turning to God? I know I can be tempted to seek counsel from friends before sitting with the Lord. After all, it takes patience and courage to cry out to God and trust that he will hear and that his Holy Spirit will be your guide. When I am facing uncertainty in life, one of my favorite verses to meditate on is 2 Chronicles 20:12. Here we find the story of Jehoshaphat, King of Judah, facing war being waged against him by the Ammonites and Moabites--Judah's enemies. In the midst of a vast army coming against him, we read that Jehoshaphat resolved to inquire of the Lord before seeking the counsel of men. ““Lord, the God of our ancestors, are you not the God who is in heaven? You rule over all the kingdoms of the nations. Power and might are in your hand, and no one can withstand you. Our God, did you not drive out the inhabitants of this land before your people Israel and give it forever to the descendants of Abraham your friend? They have lived in it and have built in it a sanctuary for your Name, saying, ‘If calamity comes upon us, whether the sword of judgment, or plague or famine, we will stand in your presence before this temple that bears your Name and will cry out to you in our distress, and you will hear us and save us.'…For we have no power to face this vast army that is attacking us. We do not know what to do, but our eyes are on you” (2 Chronicles 20:6-9, 12). In the midst of uncertainty, Jehoshaphat acknowledges God's power and authority and recalls his faithfulness as he courageously cries out, “We have no power to face this vast army that is attacking us. We do not know what to do, but our eyes are on you.” When you face uncertainty, how do you make God your first go-to? First, be in the Word of God daily so that you are more and more convinced of the truth of God and his character. We tend to seek advice from people we trust. Do you trust the Lord? That can be a tough question. Maybe your trust wavers. If that is the case, you are not alone. That's part of being human as you seek to grow more in your knowledge of God and encounters with Jesus and the Holy Spirit. But before you seek counsel from friends, discipline yourself to sit before God. Talk to him. Cry out. Be vulnerable and mirror the words of Jehoshaphat. “Jesus, I don't know what to do but my eyes are on you.” As James 1:5 says, “If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.” Seeking counsel from godly people in your life is wise. Just be mindful that you are not cutting God out of the equation. Have the courage to go to him first. He is the one who sees all, knows all, and whose counsel you can always trust in.

Makena and Sapha are the founders of Sacred Rebels Recovery, a project supporting individuals in recovery from addiction through land based treatment and plant medicine in Peru, in association with Nihue Rao Centro Espiritual. According to the International Journal of Indigenous Health, land-based healing is a culturally defined practice, program, or service that takes place in an urban nature-based, rural, or remote location, on a land base that has been intentionally spiritually cultivated, honored, and respected (Hanson, 2012). The land is situated as firmly relational within an Indigenous pedagogy, and is understood to be an active “partner to the person or people engaged in the healing process” (Hanson, 2012, p. 2). Steps are taken to identify how an individual or community's relationship with the land, self, and others has been disrupted and how best to help renew this relationship (Laurie, 2013). This has also been referred to as “land-based intervention” in the literature (Walsh et al., 2018). Sapha and Makena discuss the importance of being in community, how they were first exposed to permaculture, and the magical way that gardens attract community and offer a meeting place for connection to spark. We also explore some ways that permaculture can be practiced, either to reproduce colonial systems or to deconstruct them. The conversation turns to addiction, and the prejudice that people who use psychedelics can face from the recovery community. Sacred Rebels Recovery is bringing together land based healing with community, both in the jungle and virtually. Sapha and Makena share about working alongside the local community village Llanchama (sounds like yawn-chama), which neighbors Nihue Rao, about 1 hour away from Iquitos by motocar/river boat. This collaboration adds value to the recovery journey, as knowledge and healing is shared and integrated. Sapha and Makena shared with me in an email that Sacred Rebels Recovery is indigenous owned and operated, and visitors/residents have the opportunity to access psychedelic therapy and permaculture during the inpatient treatment process, which is generally not available with treatment in North America. The modalities are traditional indigenous healing practices held in a traditional container by indigenous people. Land based healing abroad adds a layer of adventure to the experience and an opportunity for the individual to be away from the city or town they used drugs in for an extended period of time. They also get the chance to experience a different culture, art, spirituality, and way of life. Their time away gives the family or closest care of the individual seeking treatment a break and ability to create healthy distance to allow space for healing on both sides. Seeking treatment internationally can also be more cost effective. Sapha and Makena's intention as stewards of the land is to develop food forests and systems that can thrive with native medicinal and edible plants, so the local community can continue to cultivate and enjoy the fruits of the land for years to come. They are also hosting ayahuasca retreats and residential programs for individuals on a path of addiction recovery. The conversation also includes a discussion of the ways that ayahuasca and other native jungle plants have supported us in our individual recovery/mental health journeys. There were various candid appearances in the background of this episode, from people splitting wood, dogs barking, planes flying overhead, birds singing, motorcars, to other jungle creatures.

Welcome to the Tactical Living Podcast, the show that delves into the challenges faced by police officers and first responders in maintaining a healthy work-life balance. In today's episode, we explore the concept of implicit bias and its role in shaping our perspectives. Inspired by Hemingway's poignant six-word story, "For sale: baby shoes, never worn," we unravel the intricate nature of implicit bias, highlighting how it can be both a hindrance and a valuable tool in our personal and professional lives.   Today we discuss the definition of implicit bias and its subconscious nature. We also review the impact of implicit bias on our perceptions and decision-making process. Together, Coach Ashlie Walton and Detective Walton explore Hemingway's six-word story as a powerful example of implicit bias in storytelling.   Today, we are debunking the notion that all implicit biases are inherently negative or harmful while recognizing the potential benefits of healthy implicit biases in our professional careers. Learn more about how education and experience can help us develop a nuanced understanding and navigate implicit biases more effectively.   We also review:   ·       The importance of self-awareness and introspection in identifying and addressing negative implicit biases. ·       Sharing personal stories and experiences to shed light on the process of self-reflection and growth. ·       Seeking cultural competency training and diversity initiatives to challenge and dismantle harmful biases.   In this thought-provoking episode, we've explored the multifaceted nature of implicit bias. While acknowledging the potential downsides, we've also underscored how healthy implicit biases, nurtured through education and professional experiences, can enrich our work and personal lives. By harnessing these biases effectively, we can better understand the complexities of our roles as police officers and first responders, fostering empathy and building stronger connections within our communities.   ⩥ PLEASE SUBSCRIBE TO OUR YOUTUBE CHANNEL ⩤ https://bi3xbvVont.ly/   CLICK HERE for our best-selling products: https://amzn.to/3xaG3xw and https://rdbl.co/3DIQVUC   CLICK HERE to join our free Police, Fire, Military and Families Facebook Group: https://bit.ly/38w2e7r   Check out our website and learn more about how you can work with LEO Warriors by going to: https://www.leowarriors.com/   Like what you hear?

Parents are like superheroes. They may not have superpowers, but they always sacrifice their happiness and comfort for the sake of their children. Their selflessness allows them to put their children's needs ahead of their own and do whatever it takes to keep them secure and happy.  Consequently, achieving progress in different aspects of their lives allows them to fulfill their heart's desire for their family. However, parents are often faced with tough decision-making wherein they become torn between their love for their family and the desire to pursue their passions.    Moving to a new location can be a catalyst for personal growth and self-discovery. Hence, for a father to come up with such a decision can be challenging since he has to consider the impact of his every move on his children and spouse. Thus, parents are the perfect embodiment of love, resilience, and sacrifice. And that the selfless sacrifices they made were driven by their genuine understanding that their choices could shape the lives of their loved ones and demonstrate the depths of their love and commitment to their family. Thus, parental love is the most selfless love there is.   In this special episode, Dr. Derrick Burgess will have a meaningful conversation with his eldest child, Suzie Burgess. We will get an interesting perspective of his life as a father, physician, and podcaster from his child's eyes. Be encouraged by how Suzie professes her thoughts about the things that came into her young mind along with their relocation and how much sacrifice it takes for Dr. Burgess to achieve his current success.    "I feel like this is where God is leading us, and I know he's going to take care of all of us through this season." – Dr. Derrick Burgess   Topics Covered: (00:00:00) Introduction + Episode Snippet (00:00:40) Introducing our special guest, Suzette Burgess.

Stepping into the role of the mother brought Britt to the depths of her soul, guiding her through a spiritual journey of self-discovery like none other. Becoming a mom came with so many blissful and lifelong, memory-making moments in correlation with other darker and sometimes scarier thought-induced moments of reality too. As Britt has learned along the way, this change can bring up our shadows and sides of ourselves we don't always like to be confronted with.   In today's solo episode Britt openly shares about some of the not so pretty moments she encountered in her initial transition and what she did to bring herself back to more of her baseline, conscious self. It was important for Britt to share this piece of her journey so that other mom's out there will feel less alone in their experience. For as Britt witnessed, the initial transition into motherhood can feel lonelier than one may realize.   As always, the intention behind this conversation is to inspire and guide you along a mindful exploration to living a more fluid life through a deeper connection to the soul.   “Stepping into motherhood and navigating the early postpartum waters of suddenly having another being directly dependent on me has been deeply beautiful AND equally challenging. I sit with both high stress and deep gratitude simultaneously, all of the time.”   This solo episode covers a variety of topics including:   ·      Mom rage and the associated guilt ·      Moving through a dysregulated nervous system ·      Lessons of motherhood and life transitions ·      A 3-step process to feeling good with yourself ·      Reasons to disconnect from social media ·      Cultivating an impactful meditation practice ·      Seeking one-on-one therapeutic support   “It's okay for your journey to look different than that of others. It's okay to normalize the not so shiny moments of this human experience. In fact, I encourage you to love and normalize all parts of you. And to always remember to celebrate how far you've come.”   For more fun stuff follow the links below:   CLICK HERE for Discount Codes + Favorite Products   SAY HI on Instagram @thebritolson   SAY HI on TikTok @thebrittolson   Join me for a meditation or Pilates flow on Melissa Wood Health   Enjoy 20% off Energybits spirulina tablets with code: LYOS at energybits.com   Take $20 off your first Cymbiotika order over $150 at cymbiotika.com   LEARN MORE and stay in touch - thebrittolson.com

Write down what you remember hearing about money from family, religion, culture, and society. Look for absolutes or rules you have made about money that may not be serving you. Set Ground Rules: When engaging in a conversation about money with a partner or family member, Bob suggests setting ground rules upfront. Agree to take a break if emotions get too charged and avoid blaming or using absolutes. Forgiveness: Forgiveness is an important part of the process. Acknowledge the grief and anger you may feel about past money decisions, and work towards forgiveness for yourself and others. Gratitude: Practice gratitude for what you do have, even if it's not material wealth. Focus on abundance as a mindset, rather than a specific accumulation of wealth. Bob's Course: Bob offers a course on his website that focuses on creating a healthy relationship with money.

These stories are deeply ingrained, affecting our decisions and perspectives concerning our relationship with money. Learning to understand your money story allows you to identify any potentially harmful beliefs that could be holding you back financially. By acknowledging the factors that shaped these beliefs, you can start to challenge and change them, thereby improving your financial situation. Bob Wheeler explains that people should excavate their unconscious money beliefs through methods like journaling or talking out loud. The process can be uncomfortable and emotional, uncovering strong feelings like grief and anger. However, Wheeler encourages embracing these emotions and being gentle with oneself while exploring their money story. This understanding can be an essential step toward changing one's financial relationship and setting a trajectory for a healthier financial future. Changing Your Money Story Once you've identified your current money story, it's time to decide whether a new narrative would be more beneficial. It's essential to weigh the costs and benefits of your current belief system and how it affects your financial decisions. If your beliefs are preventing you from achieving your goals or realizing your full potential, change may be necessary. In the podcast, Bob Wheeler advises focusing on new beliefs and values that align with your vision for your life. He highlights the importance of embracing forgiveness and gratitude, both in acknowledging any setbacks in your financial journey and appreciating the progress you've made so far. By actively working to change your money story, you can create a more empowered financial mindset. "We have to become aware of our unconscious story, every story has a cost." - Bob Wheeler The Money Nerve The Money Nerve refers to the emotional reactions people have to financial matters. Just like relationships with loved ones, emotional ties to money can be intense and deeply ingrained. Learning how to navigate these emotions and acknowledging their impact on financial decisions is crucial for achieving financial stability and growth. Bob Wheeler discusses his book, The Money Nerve, during the podcast episode. He highlights the importance of exploring one's financial story to understand any fears and emotions connected to it. The book guides readers through a self-discovery journey, encouraging them to be more intentional with their money and focus on emotional growth alongside financial growth. "Gratitude is more about a mindset versus actually accumulating dollars or properties." - Bob Wheeler Defining Abundance Abundance isn't just about accumulating wealth; it also includes nurturing gratitude for what you already have. Recognizing the smaller joys in life, like spending time with loved ones or being able to travel, contributes to a mindset of abundance, which positively impacts your relationship with money. Adopting a balanced perspective on financial success and personal satisfaction is important for maintaining a healthy attitude toward wealth. During the podcast, Bob Wheeler shares his experience in Africa, observing people who were content despite their lack of material wealth. This revelation inspired him to practice gratitude and appreciate his abundance in both tangible and intangible ways. By embracing this mindset shift, listeners can foster an attitude that focuses on cherishing what they have while still striving for growth. "The relationship with money, like any good relationship, you have to keep working at it." - Bob Wheeler Seeking Support Dealing with financial emotions and changing your money story can be a challenging process. Seeking support from trusted individuals can help you navigate these difficult changes and provide valuable insights. It's important to find support systems that work for you, whether that's friends, accountability partners, therapists, or coaches. Wheeler advises podcast listeners to avoid relying solely on family members for support, especially if they contributed to the problematic money beliefs in the first place. He emphasizes the importance of being honest about your financial struggles and seeking assistance from people who can provide objective guidance. By connecting with supportive networks and maintaining open dialogue, individuals can create a more balanced and healthy relationship with their finances.

Imagine a journey that starts with a 12-year-old entrepreneur mowing lawns and ends with a visionary CEO overseeing multimillion-dollar real estate acquisitions, all while navigating the complexities of partnerships and exploring unique investment opportunities like opportunity zones. Nick Simpson, the founder and CEO of Mentis Capital Partners, shares his remarkable trajectory and reveals unconventional strategies to tackle the challenges of high interest rates in the real estate industry. Nick delves into the world of student housing and its unique dynamics compared to traditional multifamily properties, as well as the benefits and considerations of investing in opportunity zones. Additionally, he revealed some alternative approaches he has developed to address challenges posed by high interest rates. Key Takeaways: Properly structuring partnerships: Nick emphasized the importance of aligning incentives and compensation from the outset of a business venture. Seeking advice from experienced business owners and working with specialized attorneys can help establish a fair and sustainable structure, setting the stage for long-term growth. Understanding student housing dynamics: Student housing presents distinct characteristics compared to traditional multifamily properties. Purpose-built student housing projects often feature a one-to-one bedroom-to-bathroom ratio, with units designed to cater to the needs of students on temporary stays. The provision of additional services, such as utilities and furnishings, justifies higher rental rates per square foot. The leasing cycle typically follows a 12-month timeline, with the added security of parental guarantees reducing payment delinquencies. Opportunity zones offer tax advantages: Investing in opportunity zones can yield significant tax benefits. Investors can defer taxes on their original gains until 2026 while enjoying tax-free growth on their capital for up to 10 years. However, careful consideration should be given to selecting markets with promising growth prospects, particularly in secondary and tertiary areas. Due diligence is crucial: Investors interested in opportunity zone investments should conduct thorough due diligence. It is essential to select well-positioned properties in developing markets and ensure compliance with the program's paperwork and accounting requirements. Engaging with experienced fund managers or teams already well-versed in opportunity zone investments can simplify the process and mitigate potential pitfalls. Innovative approaches to high interest rates: Nick shared alternative strategies for tackling the challenges posed by high interest rates. These approaches involve creatively structuring financing deals to mitigate interest rate risks and unlock more favorable terms. By exploring options like preferred equity or joint ventures, investors can optimize their returns and overcome financing obstacles.

Curious Objects guest Kay Collier, who is the owner of Kathryn Hastings and Company, purveyor of fine antique and modern wax seals, has always been a letter writer. You can thank her grandmother for encouraging the habit. Every week when she was a child Collier would receive a card with a piece of bubblegum and a dollar bill, and would send mail back. When she was nineteen Collier took a trip to Europe with her sister. Visiting the Amatruda papery on the Amalfi Coast in Italy, one of the oldest paper manufactories in Europe, her heart lit upon a wax seal. “You just have an intuitive feel for an object, it calls to you and you think ‘I don't know what this is but I have to know more, I have to touch this thing,'” she says. One thing led to another and today she is the owner of some five hundred seals: wheel seals, case seals, rotating seals, fobs made to be worn with pocket watches by Victorian gents. Each boasts a beautiful matrice (the part of the seal that's actually pressed into hot wax, to render a design) made from citrine, amethyst, bloodstone agate, and other semiprecious stones, with ormolu intaglios. Although wax seals date back to the Bronze Age, Collier is partial to seals from the late eighteenth and early nineteenth century, when designers began incorporating an array of romantics symbols. Bay leaves mean loyalty, forget-me-nots signify remembrance or true love, ships gesture to the highs and lows of the human experience. For years Collier has been on the trail of a witch riding a broom and holding aloft a hammer to symbolize the Malleus Maleficarum (Hammer of Witches), a 1486 German treatise on demonology used to charge witches with heresy. The seal is cheekily inscribed “all have their hobbies.” She's bought three, but all, unfortunately, have been fakes. “There is a witch out there and she'll find me when she's ready,” Collier says. Collecting can be a lonesome pursuit, especially when your quarry is without mainstream appeal. Seeking to break out of her bubble, in 2019 Collier had the idea to make seals to sell. Today she manufactures both antique and modern seals, shifting the age-old practice into the future by using multiple colors and layers of wax, and through such innovations as submerging LEDs in the hot wax so that her seals glow from within. “We're just a few years away from artists emerging who use seals and wax as a way to make art,” she says. That her collecting grow out a passion for letter-writing, is Ben quips, “like being a chair collector because you love sitting down so much.” But for Collier her seals are about more than usefulness, and even about more than beauty. They're a reminder of the fleetingness of life, measured out, perhaps, by the amount of time it takes to make and send a letter to someone you care about, and the time it takes to receive one in return. “Antiques outlive us, they're much older when we acquire them and hopefully they'll have lives long after us. We're stewards, and that idea of using and sharing is really important.”

This episode is about law of attraction and focus and seeking attraction has you focusing either explicitly or implicitly on lack. Abundance is the natural state of the Universe.

We're back FOA fam!! So glad to be back on the airwaves, kicking off season 4 with a vulnerable and honest conversation with the beautiful and badass queen of the Internet herself- Gina Darling. In this episode, Minji gets to fangirl a bit and also get some insight into how Gina has navigated one helluva life path with her family, unorthodox education, and unconventional career pursuits on her own terms. Brought up in an intensely strict and conservative Vietnamese home, Gina grew up trying to find out who she is apart from all the crazy expectations that so many of us face - how to act, how to dress, what to value, and what is “true” about our personalities and capabilities. Together Minji and Gina break down how their respective circumstances and choices shaped a constant need for external validation, and how they have finally begun to break the cycle in recent years.Follow Our Guest Gina Darling:https://www.instagram.com/missginadarling/Follow Minji On:Instagram (@minjeezy)Instagram (@firstofallpod)▫️ Music featured in this episode include "Uzutrap" & "devils & angels" by Flannel Albert▫️ Follow the show on Instagram and Twitter and support our Patreon▫️ This podcast is part of Potluck: An Asian American Podcast CollectiveAudio Engineer @marvinyuehProducer @DaEunKimSocial Media Manager @JulianaDeer

Save this podcast for when life hands you that type of sandwich, or send it to a friend going through a particularly tough time, or you may need these tips right now.  In this episode, you'll hear me riff about the following:  The importance of acknowledging your feelings.
