Podcasts about separating

In a time of cultural divides and political tension, what is the church's role in bringing healing and truth to a fractured society? This episode dives into the complex intersection of faith, politics, and justice, exploring how Christianity can navigate today's challenges with humility, love, and a commitment to Jesus' teachings. The hosts reflect on the prophetic responsibility of naming reality, addressing idolatrous uses of faith in politics, and embracing cruciformity—a call to sacrificial living that resists cultural compromises. Drawing insights from Pastor Ara's compelling story and his courageous leadership amidst injustice, the discussion delves into the urgent need for the church to stand against systems of oppression while maintaining a posture of love and nonviolent resistance. From the misuse of scripture in political narratives to the dangers of intertwining faith with partisan ideologies, this conversation challenges Christians to reclaim the radical, inclusive power of the gospel. Join this thought-provoking dialogue as the hosts grapple with the church's responsibility to embody justice, resist cultural corruption, and remain a kingdom-focused community. We encourage you to share your thoughts and engage in this essential discussion on faith, theology, and navigating cultural issues. Together, we can pursue a deeper understanding of what it means to follow Jesus in these divided times.

In this episode of MamaDoc BabyDoc, we're talking about some of the most common requests on modern birth plans—delayed cord clamping, immediate skin-to-skin contact, skipping the eye ointment, and the vitamin K shot. Are these preferences backed by science, or are they just trends? Dr. Renda Knapp, OB-GYN, and Dr. Rachel Schultz, pediatrician, break down the latest evidence behind each of these choices so you can feel informed and empowered—not overwhelmed—when making your birth plan. We'll cover what the research says, what's safe, what's optional, and what really matters most in those first few minutes after birth. If you're creating a birth plan or just curious about what's recommended, this episode is for you.

The tax landscape for dental professionals is undergoing a revolutionary transformation with Making Tax Digital for Income Tax Self-Assessment (MTD for ITSA) set to begin in April 2026. This comprehensive webinar unpacks what this means for dentists and how to prepare for this significant shift in financial reporting.For self-employed dental associates and practice owners earning over £50,000 in gross fee income, quarterly digital tax reporting will soon replace the traditional annual self-assessment. Rather than the familiar January rush, you'll need to submit updates every three months plus an annual finalisation. While this represents an additional administrative requirement, it also creates opportunities for more responsive financial management and tax planning.The heart of MTD compliance lies in digital record-keeping. Paper receipts and manual systems won't suffice – you'll need HMRC-approved software that can track all business transactions and submit information directly to the tax authority. Separating business finances becomes crucial; dedicated bank accounts and credit cards for your dental work will simplify compliance significantly. The phased implementation means those earning between £30,000-£50,000 will join in 2027, followed by those earning £20,000-£30,000 in 2028.We explore practical considerations including software selection, registration through accountants, and how the pilot program offers a penalty-free opportunity to test the system before mandatory implementation. While MTD admittedly increases the administrative burden for dental professionals, it also provides greater visibility of your financial position throughout the year, allowing for more strategic tax planning and potentially improved business decisions.Ready to prepare your dental practice for the digital tax era? Book a consultation with our specialist dental accountants to assess your MTD readiness, explore software options tailored to your practice, and develop a compliance strategy that minimizes disruption while maximizing potential benefits.

In life, we will encounter many distractions. Online drama, gossip, pettiness, silly arguments, and more can pull us away from our life path: achieving our life purpose, healing, helping others, and becoming self actualized. In this episode, I talk about the difference between signal and noise in life, how easy it is to be distracted away from what really matters. I also discuss feminine and masculine energy and how they relate to self-regulation, impulsivity, self-control, and whim - why this is all relevant to witchcraft skills - and why this matters for living a good and aligned life. -Secrets of a Witch is a podcast by writer, artist, and spiritual teacher Sabrina Scott. She's been a practicing witch and medium for more than 25 years, and in this casual, mellow show she shares her secrets and musings about how to overcome pain and live a happy, magical life. She is the author of four books: Witchbody; Curse and Cure: Magic for Real Life; Rapeseed: Poetry and Writing About Life After Rape; and the upcoming Bodymagic: A Graphic Novel About Witchcraft, Trauma, and Healing.

Welcome back to another episode of School Counseling Simplified! Today, I'm joined by a special guest, Sarah Lovell—an executive function and ADHD coach who brings so much value for both our work with students and our own professional and personal lives. Sarah Lovell (she/her) is an executive function & ADHD coach for college students, ambitious professionals, overthinkers, and recovering perfectionists who are tired of feeling stuck and are ready to work with their brains, not against them.  With 11 years of experience, Sarah helps clients who try tool after tool… only to burn out or blame themselves when nothing sticks. She helps you understand why it's so hard to get started (even on things you want to do!) and make sustainable changes in a way that feels good.  Sarah's background in social work grounds her work in compassionate practices, believing self-talk and self-care are the foundations for executive functioning. Along with 1:1 coaching, she runs a membership, Stuck to Started, that gives you extra support and accountability. She also hosts From Stuck to Started podcast, where she shares realistic, actionable strategies in 20 minutes or less.  When Sarah isn't coaching, she enjoys trail walks with her dogs, snuggling up with tea and a good book, and paddleboarding.  Summer Summit Replay Access Did you miss Summer Summit? It's not too late! When you join IMPACT, my monthly membership for school counselors, you'll get access to all of the Summer Summit session recordings, along with PD hours. Sarah's session is one you don't want to miss. She shares how nervous system regulation supports executive functioning and practical tools to apply these strategies in your life and with students. Sneak Peek: Sarah's Summer Summit Session In her session, From Overwhelmed to Organized, Sarah discusses the connection between executive functioning and nervous system regulation: When our nervous system is dysregulated, it becomes hard to access our executive functioning tools. Self-talk is a foundation for executive function, but regulation must come first. She walks through tools for both hyperarousal (anxiety, fight/flight) and hypoarousal (low energy, disconnection), including: Breathing and grounding exercises Somatic movement, like balance or tapping Separating planning from action to reduce overwhelm A Day in Sarah's Life Sarah supports a wide range of adults: college students, women with ADHD, entrepreneurs, and business owners. She holds 1:1 coaching calls, runs a supportive membership, produces podcast content, and handles the daily marketing and admin needs of her business. Advice for Counselors “Self-talk is the foundation!” Whether you're feeling stuck, procrastinating, or overwhelmed, it starts with self-awareness. Understand the difference between procrastination and being stuck. Take a pause, name what you're experiencing, and give yourself credit along the way, not just when you meet the goal. Bonus: Free Live Training This July! School is starting soon, and I'm offering a free live training on how to use a Meet-the-Counselor lesson to connect with students and advocate for your role!

In this deeply honest episode of The Partnership Podcast, Lauren and Trey revisit the rupture they first discussed after their NYC trip — but now, they're speaking from the other side of a powerful coaching session with their person, Dr. Joli Hamilton.They explore how separating roles in their partnership has transformed the way they handle feedback, support, and stress. Lauren introduces the term “Vision Carrier,” a phrase that finally captures the role Trey has long played in her life. At 10:42, Lauren shares the moment she felt real validation — when their coach and Trey both affirmed that her critique of Trey's self-awareness wasn't too much, it was spot-on.They discuss how denial of her feelings touched on old wounds of gaslighting from her first marriage, and how they are both working to repattern their safety-seeking behaviors in real time.And even though the work is hard (Lauren shares she felt physically sick before the session), they're recommitting to a partnership where love is prioritized over comfort.Timestamps:00:00 NYC rupture recap & coaching session reflection04:51 “Vision Carrier” and role separation10:42 The moment Lauren felt less “crazy”14:45 The difference between critique and cruelty20:30 Trey's repatterning work26:00 Love vs. comfort in partnership✨ Want to learn relationship tools like the ones we shared today?Request a free 15-minute consult at: www.sexedforyou.com/freeconsultAbout Us: Lauren and Trey are partners living in Central Virginia where Lauren owns and operates, SEX ED FOR YOU.

The different faces of identity: Navigating sexual orientation and gender expression   Welcome back to Blended!   Today, we're talking about sexual orientation, gender identity and expression.   Discussions around these issues have been hitting the headlines more and more in recent months. And it's fair to say that many recent rulings and debates have felt like a step backward for a lot of different communities – they just want the freedom to be themselves. But there's a fundamental lack of understanding. A lot of people just don't understand what it means to have a different identity or expression. And a lack of understanding, the unfamiliar or unknown, is what often sits behind fear.   So today we're going to be opening up a conversation to encourage understanding, so we can fight that fear and create spaces that are safe and welcoming for everyone.   IN THIS EPISODE:   [01.02] Introductions to our Blended panelists.   ·       Kai – Social Scientist, President of TransFocus and speaker ·       Ross – Vice President at GLAAD Media Institute, author and speaker  ·       Kiara-Kumail – Employee at White Ribbon and actor     [04.23] The group explore sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression and the many factors around these topics, from pronouns and labels, to authenticity and fear.   ·       Sex vs gender ·       Labels ·       Evolution of labels/identities ·       Words/identities mean different things to different people ·       ‘I am' vs ‘I identify as' ·       Asking open-ended questions ·       Creating safe spaces o   What are they? o   How do we create them? o   Language o   Infrastructure o   Support/listening ·       We're more than just our identities ·       Definitions becoming reductive ·       Problems with identity becoming politicized  ·       The growth of LGBTQIA+ ·       Pronouns ·       How we introduce ourselves    ·       The nuance of curiosity and asking questions ·       Respect ·       Fear of making a mistake ·       Being open to being corrected ·       Acknowledging, and apologizing for, mistakes ·       Making assumptions ·       Internal vs external ·       Control ·       Cultural rules ·       How gender expression relates to physical safety ·       Masculinity and femininity ·       Shifting gender expression to suit different environments ·       Belonging ·       Authenticity ·       How anti-trans sentiment also harms cisgender people     “Labels will never fully be able to capture everything, though they help people identify in certain ways. Ultimately, it's not about fully understanding everything, it's about respect and being a good human being. And labels expand and mean different things to different people. The community exists beyond a monolith, we all have different opinions – there's no one easy answer unfortunately.” Kiara-Kumail   “Sexual orientation and gender identity are not just LGBTQ things, they're something we all have. We all have a way in which we know and understand ourselves, and share it out with the world.” Ross   “There's no right or wrong… But the way we can be more expansive is to say: ‘Tell me about yourself.' It's an open-ended question, and then people can feel free to share whatever they want... Sometimes people are hesitant, because they don't know whether it's safe to share.” Kai   “If someone raises an issue, that's a big deal because it takes so much energy. Most people in the research we do, do not raise issues. About 75% have issues, but don't raise them.” Kai   “Introducing yourself is a good way to do it. Because, if you're asking, be honest: Are you asking the only visibly trans person in the room, or are you asking everybody that? Sometimes inclusion can actually be exclusionary. It's good practice not to single one person out.” Kiara-Kumail   “For trans and non-binary folks, people often misread them – we look at the exterior and jump to conclusions… They're misgendered about 70% of the time, it's on a daily basis, and that's a heavy burden to bear.” Kai     [40.44] The panel share an overview of where the US currently is with gender and sexuality issues, why many feel that we've taken a step backwards, and why it's so important to continue to talk about these issues openly and without judgement.   ·       Similarity to the persecution of gay men during the AIDs crisis in the 1980s ·       Modern radicalization of boys and men ·       Manosphere ·       Danger of discriminatory echo chambers ·       Dehumanization ·       Allyship ·       Honest, open dialogue ·       Separating fact from fiction  ·       Combined vision – weaving in women's and men's issues ·       Overlapping needs/intersectionality ·       Shared benefits ·       Trying to turn negatives into positives ·       Speed of change     “We'd previously been making quite a lot of progress, especially on trans issues and rights… Now it feels like a reversal. But I think it's a pause, to allow more people to catch up… I try to understand many different perspectives and I hear time and time again: it's too fast. So, OK – let's regroup, restart the conversation, go back, and go through the basics.” Kai   [49.40] The group discuss what organizations can do to support the LGBTQIA+ community in the current political environment.   ·       Increasing millennial and Gen Z affinity with LGBTQ community ·       Millennial and Gen Z groups are customers and employees – driving expectations ·       Support grounded in values ·       Difference between what organizations say and do (social media vs real policy) ·       Need for larger systemic change, changing norms ·       Appreciation of queer culture, not just people ·       Analysis of biases ·       Providing health insurance that covers gender affirming care ·       Organizations pulling out of Pride/removing certain stock from shelves/pulling DEI programs    ·       More inclusive parental packages, i.e. IVF and adoption ·       Support for name changes ·       Areas for active leaning, e.g. Role play   ·       Intent – the importance of trying ·       The importance of listening ·       Kai's experience of working with two-spirit first nation people ·       Trans folk are not new! o   They exist in every culture, throughout time o   Different names, e.g. ‘third gender' in India o   Trans history has been erased o   Colonialism set certain parameters for gender, expression, marriage, etc. ·       Calling in experts – and paying them! ·       Context ·       Consistency ·       Self-reflection   “In the US, despite everything we've talked about, peoples affinity with the LGBTQ community has only grown – it's tripled since 2012 when Gallop started measuring… And that growth is from Gen Z and Millennials… Which means, for companies and organizations, these are your customers, these are your employees and your future leaders.” Ross “It's going to be a smaller group, but a more effective one. Because those are the ones that want to do the deep work.” Kai “People feel neutral to positive about things like Pride merchandise… the same way they think about a sports team brand. What's the difference between wearing a rainbow t-shirt or a Vikings jersey – to a lot of people, they're the same thing.”  Ross “It's about showing up, it's about listening, and getting to know. Because when you have a depth of knowing, you can start to take more tangible action in a way that's connected with people. It's relational.” Kai   [1.14.18] The panel sum up their thoughts from today's discussion.    RESOURCES AND LINKS MENTIONED: You can connect with Kiara-Kumail, Kai and Ross over on LinkedIn.

Why am I here? Because I'm not here just to occupy space. I'm supposed to be doing something with this gift I've been given, called life. What do I do with it?” “We entangle our identity and our occupation… that's not you. You've got to untangle this stuff.” “The cycle of life, you're either growing or you're dying. There is no in-between.” “Those little baby steps along the way are a good thing. They don't necessarily feel great in the moment. They feel okay. It's just when we take the moment to stop, turn around, and look to see how far we've come, then we realize we have grown so much.” “Your identity is worked out over time, in community.” “Want what you already have.” “Anytime you're pointing at someone, remember — there's a thumb headed up toward heaven, three other fingers pointing back at you. So whatever you say to somebody should apply to you at least three times as much.” “Seeking certainty is a lack of faith. God is not a God of certainty. He's a God of mystery. And when you can embrace the mystery, then you're like, ‘Oh, I don't need certainty. Wherever he wants me to go, I go.” “False identity is that you're a bad dad, you're a bad husband, you're a bad community leader... the true identity is what God tells you. It's what He reveals to you.” USEFUL RESOURCES: https://whitestonecoach.com/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/peterjawad/ https://www.instagram.com/thepeterawad/ https://www.facebook.com/thepeterawad https://x.com/peterawad CONNECT WITH JOHN Website - https://iamjohnhulen.com    Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/johnhulen    Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/johnhulen    X - https://x.com/johnhulen    LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/johnhulen    YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLX_NchE8lisC4NL2GciIWA    EPISODE CREDITS Intro and Outro music provided by Jeff Scheetz - https://jeffscheetz.com/

Separation in Scripture isn't just about what we leave behind—it's about what we commit to. The Jews renewed their covenant by turning from worldly ways and turning to God's Word, God's people, purity, and responsibility. A life fully devoted to the Lord demands a different kind of commitment.

Stirring exposition of Matthew 13:47-52, The Parable of the Dragnet, and The Parable of the Householder. The seriousness of unbelievers eternal separation from God and the need for believers to be evangelistic are emphasized.

In Episode 283 ofJumpstart With Jeff,  Dr. Jeff Buske equips dentists with two powerful frameworks—"The Code" and "The Stack"—to gain clarity and control in their professional and personal lives. Dr. Buske introduces "The Code" (facts, feelings, focus, fruit) as a tool to separate emotions from reality, enabling honest self-assessment and effective team management. Using a practical example, he shows how an office manager can use this framework to resolve staff issues by isolating facts from feelings and aligning focus with desired outcomes. "The Stack" (stop, submit, struggle, strike) offers a process to interrupt reactive patterns, reframe old stories, and take purposeful action. By sharing his daily practice of stacking, Dr. Buske illustrates how these tools foster perspective, certainty, and growth, transforming dentists from prisoners of their practice into empowered producers.Key Takeaways:"The Code" helps dissect situations into facts, feelings, focus, and results for clearer decision-making."The Stack" interrupts emotional spirals, allowing dentists to reframe narratives and act intentionally.Separating facts from feelings enhances communication with team members and patients.Daily stacking provides perspective, reducing stress and improving decision-making certainty.These frameworks apply beyond the office, enhancing relationships and personal growth."The stack is the greatest tool I've ever had—it gives me perspective every single day." – Dr. Jeff BuskeTo connect with Dr. Buske follow the links below - LinkedInInstagramFacebookLimitless Dentist AcademyJoin Dental Syndicate HERE

Are you a professor, researcher or writer?  Do you battle with distraction and writer's block?  If so, a writing retreat might be just what you need to finish your project.  Retreats provide academics with distraction-free environments to focus solely on their writing projects, helping them make significant progress in a short time.While teaching a class at Queen Margaret University in Scotland, I stumbled upon a writing retreat just down the hall from my classroom.  I asked Dr. Vani Naik, Researcher Developer at Edinburgh Napier University, for a quick interview on my iPhone.  I'm fascinated with the creative process and thought it could make for an interesting podcast episode.  Let me know what you think. "When you're writing, you're writing, and when you're not writing, you're not writing"   - Vani NaikKey Takeaways•  Writing retreats separate participants from daily demands and distractions• Structured 90-minute writing sessions create focused blocks of productive time• Creative elements like guided walks, yoga, and puzzles enhance productivity• Building community and acknowledging participants personally creates a supportive environment• Sustainable practices academics can incorporate into their regular routines• Separating writing time from non-writing activities is crucial for productivity• Creative approaches to academic writing challenge traditional views of academic seriousness• Participants consistently are surprised at how much they accomplish in short periods• Setting clear boundaries around writing time (out-of-office replies, phones away) enhances focusBio: Dr Vani Naik is Researcher Developer at Edinburgh Napier University, where she supports researchers with their professional development. She's particularly interested in supporting career development, as she recognises how much enjoying your work impacts on wellbeing. She's carved out an enjoyable working life so that the “Sunday Scaries” don't apply, and works to foster this in others. Apart from curating creative writing retreats, she is also keen to support professional development for researcher developers. She is part of an international committee creating one-to-one mentoring pairs, and a UK scheme for peer mentoring circles.What Vani loves about her work is that she can create practical impact from her theoretical PhD thesis work on academic career pathways to the professoriate for women engineers. She has also started her own business with a view to sharing creative practices, providing consulting services to individuals and higher education institutions. Her main interest throughout all her roles is transforming academic barriers into bridges, ensuring that researchers thrive in any chosen career pathway. Hi Friend - If you're enjoying Stories of Change and Creativity, make sure to follow, rate, and leave a 5-star review—it helps more people discover the show.

Your ability to compartmentalize might be the most underrated entrepreneurial skill nobody talks about. When personal crisis strikes, the stark difference between being an employee and a business owner becomes painfully clear—nobody pays you for downtime or emotional processing when you run the show.After my son's recent heart procedure (his fourth since being diagnosed with a congenital heart condition), I found myself reflecting on a powerful conversation with my father that changed everything for me. He offered this gem: "You can't carry everyone's emotional baggage and simultaneously build the kind of business that can financially support them when they need it." That hit me like a freight train of truth.As purpose-driven entrepreneurs who genuinely care about others, we often think bearing their burdens demonstrates our love. But the cruel irony is that by taking on everyone's problems, we diminish our capacity to create the financial resources that could actually help them. Money doesn't solve everything, but it certainly softens the blow of medical bills, career transitions, and life's unexpected challenges. I've had to learn the discipline of "clocking in and out"—creating mental boundaries between business focus and personal presence. My go-to affirmation became: "If I can't fix the problem right now, I'm not going to carry the burden right now."Are you struggling with the weight of personal crisis while trying to maintain your business? Give yourself permission to stop carrying what you can't currently fix. Focus instead on building something that positions you to help in more meaningful ways. Share your experience or ask questions in the comments—I'd love to connect with others navigating this challenging balance.If you would like to learn more about working with Josh, and the Performance Coaching Certification, visit JoshCoats.com!
