This week Fr. Michael reflects on the Gospel from the feast of the Exaltation of the Cross. He discovered that the root word means both shame and exalt or lift up, and he compares those in relation to how we live out our lives. He talks about bringing shame to Christ by our actions and inactions, and what it means that Christ will be ashamed of us if we shame Him.Follow and Contact Us!Follow us on Instagram and FacebookWe're on YouTube!Join our Goodreads GroupFr.

There's a way to sound spiritually mature while staying completely unformed, and therapy culture is helping people do just that. This week on Win Today, Matt Chandler joins us to confront the drift we're experiencing: where therapy culture replaces repentance, where identity confusion isn't grieved, and where safe Christian jargon sounds right but does nothing to transform the soul. We talk about why discipleship doesn't always feel safe. Why comfort doesn't heal—it sedates. And how complaining isn't just venting; it's forming your view of God. Matt names the thin theology that's left people chasing emotional relief instead of spiritual formation. This conversation doesn't throw stones at therapy. But it does confront what happens when comfort becomes your gospel and language becomes your liturgy. If you've traded formation for slogans, been discipled more by feelings than by truth, or confused Christian language with actual obedience, this conversation isn't just timely—it's necessary.

Sometimes forgiveness comes too soon — not because we're unfaithful, but because we're afraid. Many of you have been told that good Christians forgive quickly, but what if forgiveness that comes too soon isn't holy…it's harm? Your body knows when it's not ready. Betrayal doesn't just break trust — it breaks regulation. In this episode, Laura will explore what betrayal does to the nervous system and why true forgiveness starts with safety, honesty, and time — not speed.

Why does your body shut down during intimacy even when your mind wants connection? Why does rejection trigger panic that feels way bigger than the situation? The answer might have nothing to do with your current relationship—and everything to do with attachment wounds living in your nervous system.In this episode, Laura talks with Dr. Aline LaPierre, creator of NeuroAffective Touch, about how our earliest experiences with touch shape everything about adult intimacy, sexuality, and connection.You'll learn:Why touch is our "first language" and how it creates our blueprint for relationshipsHow attachment wounds from childhood show up differently for higher-desire and lower-desire partnersWhy neglect and abuse create different patterns in the body—and how to recognize themThe difference between therapeutic touch and massage (and why it matters)How partners can support each other's nervous system healing without becoming therapistsWhy the body remembers what the mind has forgotten—and how to help it tell its storyReal examples of how couples use attuned touch for deep healingDr. LaPierre explains why traditional talk therapy often can't reach body-based trauma, and shares the vision behind bringing NeuroAffective Touch into intimate partnerships for the first time.Whether you're dealing with desire differences, struggling with touch aversion, or sensing that old wounds are affecting your intimacy, this conversation offers a completely different lens for understanding what's happening in your body.About Dr. Aline LaPierre: Creator of NeuroAffective Touch, President of the United States Association of Body Psychotherapy, and co-author of the bestselling book Healing Developmental Trauma (available in 14 languages).

HEADLINE: Remembering Resilience and a WWII Hero: The Children's Tree and the Legacy of Edward Shames GUEST NAMES: John Batchelor (Host), Thaddeus McCotter of American Greatness, and Malcolm Hoenlein 200-WORD SUMMARY: The program discussed the dedication of the Children's Tree in Battery Park, a powerful symbol of resilience and hope grown from cuttings of a tree secretly nurtured by Jewish children at Terezín (Theresienstadt) concentration camp during the Holocaust. In 1943, teacher Irma Lauscher courageously smuggled the original sapling into the camp so that children could celebrate Arbor Day and maintain a connection to life and normalcy amid unimaginable circumstances. The children sacrificed their precious water rations to care for the tree, demonstrating extraordinary determination and spirit. The 15-foot tree now standing in Battery Park will be cared for by children at the Battery Park School, ensuring that this legacy of hope continues for future generations. The segment also paid tribute to the late Edward Shames, the last surviving member of the legendary Band of Brothers (Easy Company, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment), who died at age 99. Shames participated in D-Day (Operation Overlord) and was among the first members of the 101st Airborne Division to enter Dachau concentration camp upon its liberation, witnessing firsthand the horrors of the Holocaust. In a remarkable footnote to history, he later acquired Hitler's private cognac from the Eagle's Nest, a personal memento from the fall of the Third Reich. 1698 JERUSALEM The segment also paid tribute to the late Edward Shames, the last surviving member of the legendary Band of Brothers (Easy Company, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment), who died at age 99.

Connor Beaton, founder of ManTalks, joins MTM. He in a transformative conversation about shadow work and its profound impact on personal choices and mental well-being. Throughout the discussion, Connor delves deep into the concept of the "shadow self," exploring how acknowledging and integrating the hidden, often suppressed aspects of our personalities leads to greater self-awareness and genuine change. We candidly address the role of shame in our lives—how it can serve as both a motivator and a destructive force—and why many people unconsciously use shame-based narratives as a way to push themselves, often resulting in cycles of self-sabotage and emotional stagnation. Connor illustrates how confronting shadow elements like guilt, regret, and self-doubt enables us to break free from repeating negative patterns. Listeners will learn actionable strategies for revealing and working through feelings of shame, while gaining tools for healthier inner dialogue and compassionate self-reflection.You'll learn how self-compassion, accepting past mistakes, and building more authentic relationships—cornerstones of Connor's approach to men's emotional growth and healing.Feeling stuck?

You care for your face, your body, your mind, but when was the last time you cared for the skin down there? In this candid episode of The Skin Real, Dr. Mary Alice Mina sits down with urogynecologist Dr. Nabila Noor to talk about one of the most overlooked parts of women's wellness: vulvar skin. Together, they unpack the myths, shame, and silence surrounding “the skin where the sun doesn't shine,” reminding women that caring for this area isn't taboo, it's essential. Dr. Noor brings her expertise and empathy to every question, explaining how vulvar and vaginal skin differ, what products are safe (and which to skip), and why issues like irritation, dryness, and incontinence are common, but never normal. From postpartum recovery to perimenopause, this episode is a masterclass in reclaiming body literacy. It's an honest, empowering reminder that your body deserves care, curiosity, and compassion Key Takeaways: ✓ The vulva is external skin—distinct from the internal vagina, and requires gentle, fragrance-free care. ✓ “Less is more”: water is the best cleanser; avoid douching and scented wipes that disrupt your natural balance. ✓ Postpartum changes like dryness, laxity, or leakage are common and reversible with support and pelvic floor therapy. ✓ Estrogen loss in breastfeeding and menopause can cause dryness, discomfort, and incontinence, but these can be treated. ✓ Simple, safe moisturizers like petroleum jelly, coconut oil, or zinc-based creams often outperform marketed “feminine care” products. ✓ Shame and misinformation keep women silent—knowing your anatomy and seeking help early can prevent long-term issues. ✓ Women's health is whole-body health: caring for your vulva is an act of confidence, not vanity. This is the conversation we've all needed, but rarely had. Whether you're navigating postpartum healing, perimenopause, or simply curious about how to better care for yourself, this episode will leave you informed, affirmed, and empowered.  Dr. Nabila Noor is a nationally recognized Urogynecologist, Pelvic Reconstructive Surgeon, and Assistant Professor with advanced fellowship training from Harvard Medical School. As a double board-certified expert and high-volume surgeon, she is a thought leader in women's pelvic health, surgical innovation, and patient education. Through her global digital platforms, she empowers thousands of women to take charge of their pelvic and sexual health without shame.

Hi friend — welcome back to The Habit Within! I'm Camille Kinzler, and today's conversation is one I've been sitting with for a while. It's all about honoring both our body's innate wisdom to heal — and also the truth that sometimes… it needs a little help.I've always been fascinated by how powerful our bodies are. The fact that they can self-repair, regulate, and recalibrate on their own is incredible. But lately, I've been realizing something: just because our bodies can heal naturally doesn't mean we always have to do it alone.There are moments when the foundations — food, movement, sunlight, rest — just aren't enough. And that's okay. Sometimes, we need extra support: a supplement, a peptide, a medication, a different kind of partnership. It's not a failure. It's simply being human.In this episode, I share:Why it's okay to seek support — even if you've always been the “I'll do it naturally” typeMy own journey of letting go of shame around needing a little extra helpHow to know when your body's asking for foundational care versus interventionThe beauty of the “both/and” — honoring your body's intelligence and welcoming outside support when neededSimple foundational practices I've returned to (and how small tweaks can re-anchor your healing)This conversation is about releasing the guilt and pressure we often put on ourselves to “do healing right.” Your body's wisdom is vast and powerful — but sometimes, it simply needs a hand.Big Takeaways:Healing isn't all or nothing — it's both/and.You can trust your body and still seek support.Shame has no place in your healing story.You're allowed to change your mind about what “natural” healing looks like.I'd love to hear from you: What's one way your body has asked for support lately? Tag me, share your story, or leave a review — I love hearing how you're partnering with your body in this season.If you're tired of feeling exhausted, irritable, moody, and just not like yourself, schedule a free 30-minute consultation so I can help you feel like YOU again Fill out this brief form (2 min) to schedule a free 30-minute call.

Shame is one of the enemy's most powerful tools—it twists mistakes into identity, leaving our daughters believing lies like “I'm not enough, I'll never measure up, I'll always be a failure.” Left unaddressed, those inner whispers can grow into heavy chains that shape how a girl views herself, others, and even God.  In this powerful conversation, American Heritage Girls Founder & Executive Director and podcast host Patti Garibay is joined by Brittany Sawrey-Coulson, Licensed Professional Counselor and Director of Content at Trueface. With wisdom and compassion, Brittany unpacks the difference between guilt and shame, why negative self-talk begins earlier than we think, and how moms can model grace-filled authenticity that frees their daughters from shame's grip.  Together, Patti and Brittany discuss practical ways parents can help girls replace lies with God's truth, cultivate safe spaces for honest conversation, and anchor their worth in Christ—not in performance, appearance, or comparison. And if you're a mom who wrestles with shame yourself, this episode offers hope for your own healing as well as guidance for breaking the generational cycle.  Shame doesn't get the last word—Jesus does. Tune in and discover how to lead your daughter toward freedom, confidence, and a lasting identity rooted in Him.  Referenced Scriptures in this episode:  Romans 12:2   Proverbs 18:21   John 8:36   Learn more about Brittany and the ministry of Trueface at trueface.org.  Explore more resources to raise girls rooted in Christ at raisinggodlygirls.com. To find or start an AHG Troop in your area, visit americanheritagegirls.org.

Hey, Heal Squad! In this week's Lonely Guy Friday, Kev is tackling one of the most powerful (and damaging) forces we all face, shame. He breaks down why shame is one of the most widespread emotional ailments in our society, how it quietly shapes our choices and relationships, and why the belief that “shame keeps us accountable” can actually keep us stuck in pain. Kev shares how unhealed shame can lead to isolation, self-sabotage, and even physical illness, and how breaking that cycle starts with one essential (but often uncomfortable) step: self-compassion. You'll also hear how joy can become one of the most effective healing tools for releasing shame, and a beautiful reflection on what it means to be an emotional surrogate, and why that sensitivity might actually be your gift, not your burden. And for a little RGF bonus? Kev shares the wild, true story of Grizzly Adams and actor Dan Haggerty, a reminder that even in the wilderness, there's always room for redemption and heart. -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy's Page: Shop My Macy's Storefront Prenuvo: Prenuvo.com/MARIA for $300 off EMR-Tek Red Light: https://emr-tek.com/discount/Maria30 for 30% off Airbnb: https://www.airbnb.com/  Briotech: https://shopbriotech.com/ Use Code: HEALSQUAD for 20% off  Join In-Person Heal Retreat Waitlist! https://mariamenounos.myflodesk.com/heal-retreat-waitlist ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos' passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.

Pastor Dru Rodriguez recalls how, as a preteen, fear muted his worship voice, and how God brought a long-buried memory to light to heal that wound. He urges stepping into God-given gifts with courage, trusting the Spirit's power, love, and self-control.

We evolved shame as a gift. A signal that whispers when we've drifted from who we might become. What if the discomfort you feel isn't the problem, but the compass? This episode explores a surprising truth: the hardest patterns to change aren't the ones destroying us, but the ones keeping us comfortably mediocre. Yet they hold us back and sometimes shames even stops us from acknowledging they exist. But we need to step back and ask if we are truly happy with our choices, the way we live our life and what we would like in it and wouldn't. And slowly learn how to build the healthier life we seek. Three Actionable Takeaways: View shame as information about misalignment, not evidence of inadequacy—it evolved to guide you, not punish you Recognize that growth happens in difficulty, not comfort—the urge to escape is the moment to lean in Build intrinsic motivation rooted in values, not just outcomes—sustainable change comes from who you're becoming, not what you're avoiding This episode originally aired on the Unhooked Podcast by Jeremy Lipkowitz.

This week, Vee and Elle sit down with journalist and sexual freedom philosopher Nicolle Double L to explore the intersection of BDSM, psychedelics, and sexuality as tools for self-discovery and healing. The conversation dives into cervical orgasms, DMT release, altered states, and how sex can mirror a psychedelic journey, especially when paired with presence and aftercare. The discussion delves into the neurochemistry of orgasms, the therapeutic aspects of BDSM, and the significance of set and setting in both sexual and psychedelic experiences.Chapters: Introduction and Connection To Writing, Shame, and BDSM (00:00)The Role of MDMA and Psychedlics in Healing (13:49)Does MDMA Ruin Sober Sex?

Ever wonder why some people light up a room and others shrink the second the spotlight hits them? Why confidence looks so natural for some but feels impossible to fake? I brought in Charlie Houpert, founder of Charisma on Command (7M+ YouTube subscribers), to decode the psychology of confidence, charisma, and connection… using viral clips, movie moments, and real-world relationships. From Taylor Swift's transformation from shy to self-assured, to the body language cues that reveal insecurity, to the painful truth about why couples tear each other down in public, this episode will change the way you see confidence forever.

We want God to come through, but on our terms. We demand ease, favor, instant breakthrough, and validation, and when those expectations aren't met, we call it a trial. But what if the real trial is our refusal to lay down our entitlement? This week on Win Today, bestselling author Gary Thomas pulls no punches. He exposes the modern lie that faith means personal fulfillment, that comfort means favor, and that hardship means failure. And he shows how distraction is more than a bad habit—it's a spiritual breakdown. Because when the soul loses its focus, bitterness, offense, and relational dysfunction are not far behind. If you've ever felt spiritually entitled, subtly bitter, or confused about why you're still offended by things you “moved past,” this conversation is for you.

Do you ever feel like you're carrying years of disappointment, shame, or questions about whether God hears you? Maybe you've prayed for healing, longed for comfort, or simply wondered if you're worth His attention. In this episode, Erin Rae Peace joins us to unpack the story of the woman with the issue of blood in Mark 5 — the only place in Scripture where Jesus publicly calls a woman “daughter.” Together, we'll explore what this tender encounter reveals about how deeply Jesus values women, the hope He offers when shame feels louder than the Truth, and why His embrace is closer than we think.You'll learn:The difference between hiding in fear and being lovingly pursued by God.How to replace assumptions about God's disappointment with confidence in His love for you.What it means to be seen, known, and embraced by Jesus.Why faith, even when fragile, can open the door to healing and freedom.Partner With Us: When life feels overwhelming, especially when you're trying to provide for yourself or your family, it can seem like you're in it alone … But it doesn't have to be. That's why we're so grateful for Convoy of Hope, an organization that has spent over 30 years helping vulnerable communities and empowering women and girls to create a better future. Convoy of Hope partners with women to start their own businesses, giving them the tools to support themselves and their families. You can be part of this movement with us; visit convoy.org/p31 to help empower women and girls today.
