In this episode of Blurry Creatures, Joe Anderson shares his raw and unfiltered testimony of encountering the supernatural, battling spiritual darkness, and finding freedom in Jesus. From childhood experiences and open doors to demonic oppression, to navigating family struggles and ministry under heavy spiritual attack, Joe's story sheds light on the reality of spiritual warfare and deliverance. Exposure to occult practices and horror media can unknowingly open dangerous spiritual doors, a reality Joe Anderson experienced firsthand through encounters with demonic forces and even poltergeist activity. His journey led him to seek guidance from priests and exorcists, who provided powerful insights on confronting principalities and the unseen battles that rage around us. Through these struggles, Joe discovered the essential role of faith, prayer, and the support of a strong spiritual community in deliverance. Most importantly, his testimony highlights how the body of Christ—across all denominations—plays a vital part in standing united against darkness and overcoming spiritual warfare.

Knowing God's works in the past gives us strength during the day.

Today's podcast episode idea was inspired by an incredible success that I recently discovered from one of my students that I know you'll be interested in. This episode is highly relevant if you want to go into wildlife careers, especially graduate school, but the lessons that you'll learn from my student's experience apply to ANY situation. You'll learn a winning process that I regularly use with my students that will get you results. In her case, it was an extremely prestigious grant that enabled her to go to basically any graduate school in the US!You see, I was recently on LinkedIn and happened to notice that one of my former students, Camilla Price, is now going to graduate school. I was so excited for her and ready to congratulate her, when I noticed something even more exciting: that she was the recipient of a prestigious National Science Foundation Graduate Research Fellowship (GRFP) grant. But even more exciting than this…she was the recipient after applying to the grant just one time and without having an established advisor to work with. Keep reading to understand why this is such a big deal…The NSF GRFP grant is a super competitive grant and a HUGE honor. I've known people who've received the grant and I was even awarded an honorable mention myself when I applied, but I didn't know anyone who got it BEFORE they started working with an advisor in graduate school, meaning that they did it all on their own!I cannot emphasize enough what a big deal this is for aspiring students wanting to go to graduate school: if you get it, you can go pretty much wherever you want for graduate school. You have your choice! This NSF grant provides all of your funding and a lack of funding is one of the biggest reasons why so many people seeking to go to graduate school can't get in. They approach potential graduate advisors and even if the advisors are interested in having another student, if they don't have the funding, then they can't take on that student for a Master's or Ph.D. This was a problem that Camilla was facing.I was so excited for Camilla – the last we had talked, Camilla had been trying to get into graduate school for a year or more. And I was super intrigued by how she went about writing the NSF GRFP. When I wrote my grant applications, I knew the advisor I would be working with and I had a specific Ph.D. project in mind. Without having a specific advisor to work with and therefore a lab and research area to focus on, how did she know what to write about? How did she do this all on her own? Without the help of an advisor to give her feedback and guidance?After extending my congratulations to Camilla, I knew I had to invite her to be on the podcast so that we could all share her success and learn the process that she took to gain this great honor.So many of my followers and students are interested in going to graduate school, and when you listen to Camilla's tips and tricks, you'll learn a ton from this episode. Even if you're not ready to go to graduate school, if you're looking to get into a wildlife career, you're going to benefit a lot. And if you're not interested in wildlife careers, that's okay too – there's still so much you can learn from Camilla's approach to receiving this grant. The strategy that she used is something that I teach in my Successful Wildlife Professional Program: start with the end in mind and work backwards.Tune in and hear about the strategies Camilla used in order to pick the graduate school of her dreams, and learn about how she settled upon the University of Colorado and chose to study wolverines. Along with Camilla's advice, I offer some additional tips and key takeaways to really solidify those points, no matter where you are in your career and what you're going for. These tips work!Specifically, I go over:Camilla's journey as an early-career professionalWhat the the NSF Graduate Research Fellowship Program is and why you should apply before you go to graduate school and even when you get inThe components of a NSF GRFP proposal and what it's like to write oneCamilla's entire process for creating her research proposal: from concept to submittingStrategies for creating a strong proposalThe importance of networking and how Camilla used it to help her write the strongest proposal possibleThe difference between Broader Impacts and Intellectual Merit: what they are and why they are important in all NSF proposalsand MORE!Dream of being a wildlife biologist, zoologist, conservation biologist, or ecologist?

For Aaron Walsh and James Pursell, the work of LEAN-STL is personal. As peer support specialists, they work to break down the stigma of talking about addiction and mental health — often sharing their own experience with addiction, recovery and healing in the process.

It's a model they believe will lower the high rates of substance use and suicide among construction workers — one they hope to see employed by more trade associations moving forward.

We're all well-aware of the stigma associated with men's mental health. Men are often told overtly or covertly to be just be quiet, do your job, and get your work done. And, while there is certainly some validity to us getting the job done when people are relying on us, it's also valid to consider the mental and emotional battles we often fight as men. Today, I am joined by retired Green Beret, Nick O'Kelly to talk about his time in service the mental and emotional anguish he faced, and what he's done to overcome the challenges of anxiety, depression, and even suicidal ideation. We talk about how a man begins to confront these issues, finding the balance between bearing down and getting the help we need, how to find teams and avenues of support without feeling weak, and how to confront the stigma (even though we all deal with it) of men's mental health SHOW HIGHLIGHTS 00:00 - Men's Mental Health Stigma 01:05 - Balancing Pride and Duty 03:12 - Debating Vulnerability 04:27 - Military Career Transitions 06:36 - Family Dynamics and Decisions 09:22 - Managing Career Expectations 11:36 - Spousal Support and Sacrifice 14:36 - Masculine and Feminine Dynamics 18:37 - Expectation Management Challenges 21:23 - Trust in Relationships 25:16 - Decision-Making Struggles 28:26 - Imposter Syndrome in Financial Planning 31:58 - Onset of Mental Health Struggles 37:55 - Consequences of Seeking Help 43:29 - Personal Anxiety Experience 47:32 - Spiritual and Physiological Factors 52:29 - High Achievers and Mental Health 54:16 - Connecting with Nick's Work Battle Planners: Pick yours up today!

But they also talk about strength: how to hold on to joy, to find moments of light, and to keep moving forward even when you're running on fumes.This episode is real, raw, and a reminder that no matter what you're going through, you're allowed to take up space and put yourself first.Find Korrie Medina Online Here:Instagram: @korrieanneFacebook: Korrie MedinaFind The Pain Game Podcast Online Here:Website: thepaingamepodcast.comInstagram: @thepaingamepodcastFacebook: The Pain Game PodcastLinkedIn: Lyndsay SopranoYouTube: The Pain Game PodcastEpisode Highlights:(00:00) Introduction to Chronic Pain and Trauma(03:19) Cervical Cancer Diagnosis Journey(04:07) Understanding Cancer Staging and Treatment Options(10:08) The Hybrid Approach to Healing(12:33) Chemotherapy Experience and Its Effects(18:12) Emergency Surgery and Its Complications(23:27) The Importance of Mindset in Healing(25:19) Embracing Happiness Amidst Struggles(26:18) The Mind-Body-Soul Connection(27:39) Navigating the Aftermath of Treatment(28:38) Understanding Brachytherapy(30:36) The Brutality of Medical Procedures(31:32) The Aftereffects of Radiation(33:45) The Reality of Menopause(35:45) Hormonal Imbalance and Mental Health(37:40) Reaching a Breaking Point(39:09) Seeking Help in Crisis(41:31) Reflections from the Psych Ward(43:40) The Importance of Self-Care(45:49) Empowering Women Through Adversity
