Podcasts about selfish

Jeremiah 29:11We wrestle with God's sovereignty because we want to be in control of what happens to us. But God sees the whole picture of our lives from start to finish...and He says, “Trust Me. I know what's best for you.”

Forgiveness isn't about letting someone off the hook or saying their actions were okay; it is about surrendering the final judgment to God's perfect justice so that you can step out of the heavy fog of bitterness and start thriving again. #FULLTANKwithBroBo​ #FULLTANKwithBroBo2026​ #BoSanchez​ #BeSelfishForgive​ #Matthew13​ #WheatAndWeeds​ #StopDrinkingPoison​ #FaithInAction​ #SpiritualMaturity​ #TrulyRichMindset​ #SurrenderToGod​ #Grace​--- PS.

If you're a mom who always ends up last on your own list, this one's for you. Jamira Pollard breaks down why putting yourself first isn't selfish — it's the foundation that lets you show up for everyone else. This clip is full of practical, no-cost ways to practice self-care for mothers: reading for fun, borrowing free library audiobooks, taking five quiet minutes before the day gets away from you. It's a simple but powerful reminder that self-compassion and daily habits — not big grand gestures — are what actually move the needle on how to feel happier. If you're working on personal growth and development or trying to build sustainable self-improvement into a busy life, this is the mindset shift to start with.

Taking responsibility for someone else's happiness feels like love. There's a case that it's actually control.Steph unpacks the hidden dynamics of codependency and people pleasing, and why taking responsibility for someone else's happiness can actually be disempowering. She breaks down how old saboteurs convince us that managing other people's emotions is our job, and why that belief keeps us stuck in shaky, unbalanced relationships. She walks through what it looks like to release that need for control, take radical ownership of your own feelings, and let the people you love do the same.In this episode you'll discover:The argument that "fixing" other people's emotions could be a selfish actHow saboteurs and old childhood coping patterns create people-pleasing and codependent habitsWhy trying to control someone else's happiness is disempowering, not helpfulYour takeaways:Notice the exact moment you step in to manage someone else's mood, and check in with how it feels in your body before you actTell the people in your life you believe they're capable of handling their own emotions, instead of stepping in to fix things for themRelease the need for control in your relationships so they can become more genuine, connected, and honestChapters00:00 Introduction: personal happiness and where our responsibility lies02:10 The coach who called fixing others a selfish act05:30 Why coaching assumes people are capable, resourceful, and whole08:15 Saboteurs, childhood patterns, and the roots of people pleasing11:40 Defining codependency and the illusion of control14:00 Two steps to break the pattern: awareness and new behavior17:20 Taking radical ownership of your own happiness19:00 Closing thoughts and sign-off

How do we know if we are following Biblical wisdom? In chapter 3 of his epistle, James sets the standard with eight qualities of godly wisdom:   First, godly wisdom is pure. False wisdom is characterized by bitter envy and selfish ambition; godly wisdom is characterized by purity of motive.   Second, it is peace-loving. Selfish ambition can start a war, but God's wisdom can bring Truth and clarity where there is chaos.   Third, it is considerate. Though you have strength and power, you control yourself so that when you have the opportunity to hurt somebody, you won't do it.   Fourth, it is submissive. Being submissive means being willing to listen and willing to learn. To be submissive is to be humble and teachable, not a doormat to be walked over but meek, so that your strength is guided and submitted to God, making you gentle and kind.   Fifth, it is full of mercy. The word used here actually has a double meaning: forgiving those who wrong us and then being willing in our hearts to help them.   Sixth, it is full of good fruit. You cannot manufacture the fruit of the Spirit. True spiritual maturity happens from the inside out for those who are indwelt by the Spirit of God and are seeking His wisdom moment by moment.   Seventh, it is impartial. Those who live by worldly wisdom cannot be impartial because they are always trying to please someone, but those who live by God's wisdom are consistent, single-minded, and authentic.   Eighth, it's sincere. A sincere person is genuine, without hypocrisy, and wears no mask.   Godly wisdom is the kind of wisdom that comes from the very heart of God. As you read and pray through God's Word continually, you will find that your life is producing purity, peace, gentleness, willingness, mercy, good fruit, impartiality, and sincerity—and that's how you'll know the Word of God is taking root. Join me in prayer.  Precious Lord, thank You for answering my prayers for wisdom by giving it to me generously. As I spend time studying Your Word and listening to Your voice, I know these things will begin to take root in me. Help me to prioritize that time with You. I pray in the name of Jesus. Amen.

Hey Friends~  Today we are investing in you first, because the healthier you are, the healthier your parenting becomes. With that in mind, the first part of this episode focuses on you as a human being—as an adult. I think that's valuable. After all, before we're parents, we're people. And that's what leads us to an important question: What if becoming a calmer, more regulated version of yourself is one of the greatest gifts you could give your child? Coach Brandon Barber shares practical strategies for understanding your subconscious mind, calming your nervous system, and breaking unhelpful patterns. Together, we explore how these principles can strengthen the way you show up as a parent. You'll leave with practical tools like creating a "worry window," building daily resilience habits, and learning how your calm presence can help another person's nervous system settle, including your child's. Caring for yourself is one of the most meaningful ways you can care for your child. Always cheering you on!  Dinalynn CONTACT the Host, Dinalynn:  hello@thelanguageofplay.com Have a QUESTION or COMMENT?

Through their resilience-based parenting frameworks, Brandon and Michelle teach moms and dads how to stop reacting from stress, fear, or exhaustion and start responding with clarity, connection, and confidence — so their children grow up feeling safe, seen, and supported.    CONTACT THE GUEST:  BrandonandMichelleBarber.com Link to RESILIENCE FIRST AID KIT: https://brandonandmichellebarber.com/resilience   A BIG THANK YOU TO OUR SPONSORS!  Clever Elly The a car charger that talks to you and helps you remember.

The believers at Corinth believe that since they have decided to follow Jesus and he has given them freedom from the bondage of sin, they can do whatever they want. In their culture, just like ours, temptation is all around them, everywhere they go. Temples with prostitutes are seen from any direction, meat sacrificed to idols is being sold in restaurants and marketplaces, and with their freedom they have in Jesus, they tend to give into temptations and sin. Paul says, “Yes, you have freedom in Christ, but not all freedoms are beneficial. The King James Version says they are not all expedient and edifying. Yes, we have been set free from sin by Jesus, but there are other people to think about, and this is what Paul is saying. Don't let your freedom cause others to sin!

Have you ever tried to do something good for yourself, only to feel guilty the second someone else had a reaction to it? In this episode, I'm answering listener questions about what happens when self-care becomes visible and the people around us have feelings about it. I'm talking about morning workouts, girls' trips, hobbies, and the guilt that can show up when we start making room for ourselves. Underneath each question is a deeper one: how do I get my own needs met without feeling like the villain in someone else's story? This episode is for you if you're ready to protect the practices that help you feel like yourself, without over-explaining, hiding, or asking for permission. Show Highlights: ● Why visible self-care can feel so complicated. [02:02] ● The listener question behind this Dear Cherylanne episode. [03:34] ● Why self-care does not need to become a debate.

It's possible to look spiritual on the outside while our hearts drift far from God. In Isaiah 1:23, God confronts leaders who were motivated by personal gain instead of justice. Jesus later addressed the same problem in the religious leaders of His day. In today's episode, we'll examine the danger of self-centered religion and discover that God isn't interested in empty appearances—He desires transformed hearts. We'll also end with one of the greatest invitations in Scripture: “Come now, and let us reason together…” (Isaiah 1:18).

What does it really mean to become the best version of yourself in God? In this episode of the Unhurried Living Podcast, Gem Fadling sits down with therapist and bestselling author Dr. Alison Cook to talk about Christian boundaries, finding your voice, healing trauma, and facing emotional pain with faith. Dr. Alison shares a deeply personal story that shaped her book The Best of You, and we explore why so many Christian women struggle to recognize their needs, speak up in relationships, and set healthy boundaries without guilt. We also look at how Jesus modeled a strong sense of self, and why facing your pain is essential to spiritual growth and emotional healing. If you’ve ever wondered: Is it selfish to focus on my needs? How do I set boundaries as a Christian? Why is it so hard to use my voice? How do I heal from past wounds with God? This conversation will encourage you to rest deeper, live fuller, and lead better. _________________________________________ Connect with Gem on Instagram and learn more on the Unhurried Living website and her new book, Hold That Thought: Sorting Through the Voices in Our Heads Learn about PACE: Certificate in Leadership and Soul Care Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.

Have you ever walked away from a conversation feeling manipulated or wondered if you've unknowingly done the same? I know I have. In this episode, we're taking an honest look at what manipulation really is, why even well-meaning people fall into it, and how fear, pride, impatience, and unmet needs can quietly shape the way we relate to others. I'll share practical ways to recognize unhealthy patterns, communicate with honesty instead of control, and trust God with the outcomes we can't manage ourselves. My prayer is that you'll leave feeling more free, more self-aware, and better equipped to build healthier relationships.

Roughly 82% of autoimmune diseases show up in women, and the cause may not be what you think. In this episode, I sit down with resilience researcher Dr. Taryn Marie to unpack how the stress you hide rewires your nervous system, why "toughing it out" is actually the opposite of resilience, and the three questions I'm now asking myself every morning. She also opens up about the 20-year secret she hid from everyone and a study where babies who had food, water, and everything but one thing still didn't survive.

For real. We do talk about that.

EP:198 Hi friends, You've probably heard the phrase, "Put on your own oxygen mask first," more times than you can count. But here's the question I want to ask you... Are you actually doing it? Because knowing the phrase and living it are two very different things. So many parents I work with have quietly placed themselves at the very bottom of their priority list. You spend every ounce of your energy taking care of your children, your partner, your career, your home, and everyone else around you... until there's nothing left for you. If any of this sounds familiar, this episode is for you:

Hey, it's Amy Newmark with your Chicken Soup for the Soul and I want to share another couple of stories with you today from our new book about why Self-Care Isn't Selfish. We've been talking about self-care all summer… because what better time than to reorient your life and remind yourself that self-care is not selfish; it's part of what you have to do to remain a functioning human being. So making a commitment to yourself should be a priority, at least for some amount of time each day or week. And you might say, well I'll do it later, when such and such thing happens… But when is the time ever going to be right? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Open up your Bibles to Galatians 5 and we’re going to add a few more to the list of yuck – Yes, the left side of the list under the label “Without the Holy Spirit”. We’re looking at what we do and who we naturally become the Holy Spirit isn’t given room in our lives and we’re directed by the world and our flesh. This list is like a blarring alarm, “WARNING, THIS ISN’T WHAT GOD WANTS FOR YOU”. If you find yourself doing these things continually, you can now know why. If someone you love is doing these things, you can know why. Wrong director. Wrong influence. Wrong side of the list. Looking at Galatians 5: 19-21, in part 1 we studied “sexual immorality, impurity, lustful pleasures and idolatry”. In Part 2 we studied “sorcery, hostility, quarreling and jealousy”. Well, that’s been fun, hasn’t it? Let’s address the next 5 today with what happens when our lives aren’t following the direction of the Holy Spirit, “Outbursts of anger, selfish ambition, dissension, division”. These are 5 attitudes and behaviors that damage our relationship with God and with other people. 1. Outbursts of Anger This is a desire to control situations or people when things don’t go our way. We lash out, we say things to hurt others, we lose control of our emotions and our mouth. This is not under the guidance of the Holy Spirit. God never leads us to just blow up. It’s never his desire for us to lose our temper. Scripture says, “In your anger do not sin.” It’s okay to be angry sometimes. There are things that should make us angry. But there’s righteous anger and outbursts of anger. There’s anger that leads to healthy change, and there’s anger that just hurts people. Check your anger sis. God didn’t design you to be continually angry and disgruntled about something. Some of us walk around continually angry about life and we wonder why we struggle to have good relationships and feelings of happiness. Girl, you’ve got a grouchy bug in you. 2. Selfish Ambition This is a self-seeking attitude that says, “What’s in it for me?” Do you have a unique way of making everything all about you? Yeah, that’s selfish-ambition, and guess what, that’s not from the Holy Spirit. When we pursue our own success, happiness or advantage at the expense of everyone else, this not only makes us look like a real crap person, but it grieves God. Selfish was NOT the example of Jesus. Never once do we see Jesus in all of his righteousness, in all of his glory, in all of his power making everything about him at the expense of others. When really, it really was all about him. He was and is the answer to everything, but he sits down with the sinner, he draws near to the pain, he stretches out a hand to the hurt. If we’re going to be like Jesus, all our selfish ambition has to be stripped away. If we’re going to be like Jesus, we will willingly bend down and wash feet even if we are the greatest in the room. So really, what is the Holy Spirit calling you to do in the group you’re in … he’s calling you to make it about them and not about you. 3. Dissension This might be a new word for you. What does this mean? Dissension is a critical spirit that constantly looks for flaws and faults in others. Rather than building up, it tears down, creating conflict, tension, and division. Have you ever heard someone use the expression, “Well, I’ll be the devil’s advocate”, then they stream a bunch of negative punches and critiques. Hey let me tell you something, the devil doesn’t need an advocate! Why would we advocate for the one who is against us? Why would you ever speak up for him sharing his opinions? The child growing up under dissension feels never good enough. The wife living in dissension feels continually defeated. You know that if you’ve lived in it. Now the question is, are you creating it in your home? Are you constantly correcting, belittling, nagging and critiquing? Is it just never good enough for you, always needing improvement. The dish washer just can’t be loaded right by anyone else. Their driving is never okay. The way they fold laundry drives you insane. And oh my gosh, why do they do what the do the way they do it? Girl, stop that! That is dissension. That’s looking for the flaw. That’s creating fault. And it’s coming from a heart that is more focused on finding faults than extending grace. If you’re searching for weaknesses and tearing down rather than building up, that’s simply NOT from the Holy Spirit. That’s the other side of the list. – Game around the table – imitate someone else – if they were to imitate you at the table, in the car, at the office, would you like what you heard and saw? – Friends – Monica’s mother – that’s dissension Being the fault finder is not our calling! 4. Division Instead of bringing people together, sometimes we thrive in dividing people and putting them against one another. We create an “us against them” script. We retell the story so more gather on your side. But opps, take a look where that is on the lists, that’s the wrong side. This isn’t what the Holy Spirit guides us to. This is what the world does. This is what our flesh desires. Some families do this against eachother. There’s mom’s side versus dad’s side, and you have to choose one. Hey let me tell you what that creates – a whole bunch of losers. No one wins in that game. You’re just divided. 5. Envy This is like jealousy, but even more so than you wanting what someone else has, you don’t want them to have it either. Envy comes from a deep insecurity and unhappiness with self. The Holy Spirit wants you to have a holy confidence in precisely who you are and where you stand with God because when you don’t you project that doubt onto others. If you can’t celebrate someone else, there’s a problem. If you are in a constant mental comparison with someone else, there’s a problem. If you’re secretly wanting someone else to fail, there’s a problem. And let me tell you, that’s such a foothold to the enemy of your soul. He’ll eat you up with envy and he’ll turn you into someone you never wanted to be. You can’t be grateful when you’re envious. You can’t be happy when you’re envious. So you’re left weak, disappointed, and sad. That’s NOT the direction of the Holy Spirit. Outbursts of anger, selfish ambition, dissension, division, envy. With each of these is an invitation to examine ourselves. Is this showing up anywhere in our lives? Where does it come from – NOT from the Holy Spirit. Where does it lead – NOT to God’s good plans for you. What can you do about it? Recognize it – take responsibility for it – ask forgiveness for it – and seek God for special strength to change it.

  This is the episode the whole people pleasing cluster has been building toward. Because after everything — understanding where it came from, seeing what it costs, learning to disappoint people, reclaiming your reactions — it all comes down to this. Choosing yourself is not selfish. It is the most necessary, most courageous, most life-giving thing a people pleaser can do. And it's available to you right now. If you've spent your whole life putting yourself last and calling it virtue, this one is going to reframe everything. Today's shift: Choose yourself in one specific way today — not instead of caring for others, but alongside it.

Midlife Reckoning: Rock the Boat, Choose Yourself with The Selfish Year Author Valerie JonesWhat happens when you realize the life you've built no longer fits?In this powerful conversation, Wendy sits down with Valerie Jones, author of The Selfish Year, coach, entrepreneur, and host of The Selfish Woman Podcast, to explore what it really means to choose yourself in midlife.After decades of being the good girl, people pleaser, and selfless woman who always put everyone else first, Valerie reached a breaking point. Living in a beautifully restored apartment in Spain with her second husband, she had everything she thought she wanted. Yet she was deeply unhappy.That realization sparked a life-changing experiment:What if she spent one year being selfish?What followed transformed her life, her work, and her understanding of self-trust.Together, Wendy and Valerie discuss:

The common evolutionary question centers around nature vs. nurture, but maybe we should be asking if we are designed to cooperate or compete? Jonathan R. Goodman is a social scientist based at the Wellcome Sanger Institute and the University of Cambridge and is the author of “Invisible Rivals: How We Evolved to Compete in a Cooperative World.” He joins host Krys Boyd to discuss Darwinian survival vs. species interdependence, what makes us either selfless or selfish and how humans respond in real-world situations that test these theories. His article in Aeon is “How selfish are we?” Learn about your ad choices: dovetail.prx.org/ad-choices

One thing far too many parents have in common is that they are always putting off taking care of themselves. This may come from a good place, but the results are good for no one.

When was the last time you were completely alone - with nobody touching you, talking to you or needing something from you?In this episode, Zoe explores why so many mothers crave alone time and why that need isn't selfish - it's essential. If you've ever felt overwhelmed, overstimulated, touched out, exhausted or guilty for wanting space from your children, this episode will help you understand what's really happening in your mind and body.Zoe unpacks the psychology of modern motherhood, the invisible mental load, emotional labour and the impact they have on a mother's nervous system. She explores why highly sensitive mothers and introverted mothers often experience overwhelm more intensely, how overstimulation can lead to burnout, resentment and mum rage, and why rest is not a luxury but a necessity.You'll learn why guilt so often accompanies the need for space, how cultural expectations of motherhood keep women trapped in cycles of self-sacrifice, and how protecting even small moments of solitude can help you become a calmer, more present and more connected parent.If you've ever wondered why you feel constantly needed, emotionally drained or like you've lost yourself in motherhood, this episode is for you.

Send us Fan MailA parasite that lays eggs in wounds and eats living tissue sounds like something from a horror movie, but it is real and it is making headlines right now. We break down the New World screw worm outbreak in Texas, what it does to animals, and why ranchers and veterinarians treat it as an urgent livestock health emergency. We also talk through the bigger picture: how infestations spread through everyday cuts and bites, why wildlife can make control harder, and how trade disruptions can turn a regional outbreak into a North American economic shockwave.Then we switch gears to pet science with a deceptively simple animal behavior study that asks a great question: will your pet help you without being asked? Researchers hid a boring object like a dish sponge, offered zero rewards, and watched what happened when a familiar human “struggled” to find it. Dogs often step in like toddlers, pointing out the location or retrieving it, while cats tend to watch closely and decide it is not their problem unless there is something in it for them. We unpack what that says about prosocial behavior, domestication, and why “helping” is not the same thing as intelligence.Our guest is Dr. Laci Brock of Stellar Arts, an astrophysicist who turned her science communication skills into a full-time space art business. Lacey shares how she builds multispectral paintings using real telescope imagery across wavelengths (think Hubble plus James Webb Space Telescope), what it takes to produce high-quality limited edition fine art prints, and how viral moments like “Meteor Geese” and her Artemis mini paintings sparked real “moon joy” online. We also get candid about generative AI, artist consent, copyright, and why the conversation is bigger than just aesthetics.Dr. Brock's Art Page!Our Links!Support the showFor Science, Empathy, and Cuteness!Being Kind is a Superpower.All our social links are here!
