Podcasts about Showing Up

Who Do You Want to Be in Hard Times? A Journey of Self-Discovery In the final episode of the summer series of the School of Self-Image podcast, Tonya Leigh emphasizes the profound impact that showing up during difficult times has on our self-image and personal growth. She asserts that our responses to challenges shape our identity more significantly than our reactions during easier times.  She reflects on her personal experiences with self-doubt and how navigating difficulties shapes our self-image more than our successes in easy times. As the summer comes to a close, Tonya encourages listeners to recommit to their goals and finish the year strong. She also shares her plans for the future of the School of Self-Image, including transitioning the podcast to a visual format on YouTube, embracing the discomfort that comes with growth and change. Tune in for inspiration and motivation to face challenges head-on!

"I have a conversation with the universe, like, hey, listen, this is bigger than me. I'm going to let you handle this one." "Just doing the opposite of what my mood tells me to do is another way that I get to show up, even when it's hard, in service of who I want to be and in service of the vision that I have for my life." "When life is hard, when it feels hard, the question is, who do I want to be in this?"

In this episode of Success is Subjective, Joanna Lilly sits down with Kade Matthews—a devoted father, psychotherapist, and lifelong advocate for creating healing spaces. Kade opens up about his own non-linear path, weaving together stories of parenthood, professional growth, and the ways music, poetry, and time in nature have been therapeutic anchors in his life. As both a clinician and a parent of young adults, Kade offers a rare dual perspective: candidly acknowledging his own stumbles while emphasizing the importance of compassion, connection, and finding joy in the journey. From mountain biking and canyoneering to supporting families through transition programs, Kade's story is one of resilience, authenticity, and living in alignment with values. Listeners will walk away inspired by Kade's reminder that success isn't about perfection—it's about presence, vulnerability, and the courage to keep showing up for yourself and those you love.Kade's Resources:At The Crossroads Connect with Joanna Lilley  Therapeutic Consulting AssociationLilley Consulting WebsiteLilley Consulting on Facebook Lilley Consulting on YouTubeEmail joanna@lilleyconsulting.com#TherapeuticConsulting #LilleyConsulting #Successful  #TherapeuticPrograms #Therapy #MentalHealthMatters #Podcast #PodcastCommunity #TheJourney #SuccessIsSubjectivePodcast #TheUnpavedRoad #PFCAudioVideo #TraumaRecovery #TherapyJourney #Healing #PersonalGrowth #TherapyWorks #FreshStart #TransitionalLivingProgram #ATCBeTheChange

Jesus' ministry was defined by the table. He made outsiders insiders and used meals to teach grace. We'll explore Luke 14:12–24 and the radical hospitality of the kingdom. Opening our homes is a spiritual discipline, not a social luxury. When we understand our homes as extensions of God's grace in our lives, then we aren't letting people into our space, we are making space for people in God's grace.

In this episode, I'm talking about the power of showing up first. You've heard me say it before — early is on time, on time is late, and late is forgotten. Being first isn't just about arriving early, it's about being the one who moves, starts, or leads while everyone else is waiting. Whether it's getting up before the world, starting a conversation, or taking action when others hesitate — going first sets you apart. Today, I'll break down why it matters and how to make it part of who you are. Show Notes:  [01:53]#1 When you show up first, you are sending a message to others and you're sending a message to yourself. [10:33]#2 Waiting makes you reactive, whereas showing up gives you power.  [15:06]#3  Showing up first is an identity.  [19:17]Recap Next Steps:

In this solo episode, I'm sharing a tough-love truth that might sting a little. It all started during a recent hiring process, where I was struck by how many candidates showed up unprepared for a life-changing opportunity. It got me thinking: how often do we, as creatives, fail to do the basic work our dreams require? I'm digging into the idea of "permission to play" as the baseline preparation and knowledge that's your ticket into the game. We're not talking about perfection; rather, we're focusing on honoring your future self with the simple act of showing up ready. We'll explore why talent without preparation is just potential and how over-preparing is one of the most profound acts of self-love you can practice.  If you're ready to stop abandoning your future and start building earned confidence, this one's for you.   Chapters 00:00 - The Interview Story That Stung 01:43 - What Is Your 'Permission to Play?' 02:30 - The Real Cost of Being Unprepared 03:25 - Sending a Love Letter to Your Future Self 04:25 - How Preparation Changes Your Identity 05:15 - What People Say When You're Not in the Room 06:20 - A Final Word: Your Future Self is Counting on You   Check out the full Video Podcast on our YouTube Channel! https://youtu.be/YR449TnmbrI   Support the Show Website: www.martineseverin.comFollow on Instagram: @martine.severin | @thisishowwecreate_ Subscribe to the Newsletter: www.martineseverin.substack.com This is How We Create is produced by Martine Severin.

This week, we revisit our episode with Aly Bird, a coach, an author, a therapist-in-training, and a widow who is the author of the wisdom-filled book titled Grief Ally: Helping People You Love Cope with Death, Loss, and Grief. When Aly was 30 years old, the person she loved and trusted most in her life suddenly died, leaving her in a world that no longer made sense.In the aftermath of her loss, Aly quickly realized that her positive experience of support was unique and unlike the horror stories of isolation and ignorance that she was hearing from her widowed peers. With unconditional love, courage, and brutal honesty, Aly and her support network began navigating how to live in her new reality, and this collective experience inspired her to write her wisdom-filled book. IN THIS EPISODE, YOU'LL HEAR ABOUT THINGS LIKE:The terrible cliches people say to the grieving that are more harmful than helpful.What happened during a party about three months after Will transitioned that inspired Aly to write Grief Ally.Aly's experience with a workshop instructor that convinced her that we need to shift the way we support people who are grieving.Ways Aly now advises people to show up for a grieving friend or relative.

In this episode of The Widow Podcast, I explore what it really means to show up for yourself in grief. Grief can turn our world upside down, leaving us feeling lost, disconnected, and unsure of who we are anymore. In this conversation, I share my own experiences and offer gentle, practical ways to begin rebuilding trust, safety, and compassion within yourself. We discuss: • Why showing up for yourself in grief is so powerful • How grief changes our sense of identity and self-worth • The importance of small, consistent steps rather than perfection • Practical tools such as habit stacking, breathing, journaling, and pausing • How nervous system regulation plays a role in healing • Learning to listen to your body's wisdom and needs • Why self-compassion is essential, not optional If you're navigating life after loss and wondering how to care for yourself when everything feels overwhelming, this episode offers support, tools, and gentle encouragement to take one small step at a time. Awakening Hope I'd love you to join me for Awakening Hope, a free five-day immersive experience for widows and surviving partners, running 22–26 September 2025.

David Hyde is currently serving as the Augusta, Maine Stake President. He shares his experience growing up in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, a powerful experience he had on his mission, his willingness to try to do what the Lord asks him to do, and what the Augusta, Maine Stake Presidency feels is important for their stake.

Jesus never seemed in a hurry, even when crowds demanded His attention. Drawing from the Good Samaritan (Luke 10:25–37), we'll unpack how formation happens in our margins—not our schedules. Living a Spirit-led life means being interruptible. One of our kingdom qualities is being an unhurried friend, and this passage challenges us to consider who our friend is, the same way that Jesus challenged first-century people with their definition of neighbor.

“I'm not gifted. I'm not smarter than everybody else. I'm not stronger. I just have the ability to stick to a plan and not quit.” That's a quote from Jonny Kim. A Navy SEAL, Harvard educated medical doctor and NASA Astronaut. All of which was achieved before he was thirty five.  Now the key part to that quote is “the ability to stick to a plan and not quit” And that's the topic of this week's podcast.

A podcast to answer all your questions about productivity, time management, self-development, and goal planning. My name is Carl Pullein, and I am your host of this show.  It took me many years to learn that the best things in life never happen by accident. They are the products of slow steady work. Becoming a lawyer or a doctor is not about making a decision in middle school and then miraculously ten years later you're performing in the Supreme Court or surgery in a top hospital.  It takes years of slow steady study, experiencing ups and downs and frequently wanting to quit because it's hard.  Yet that's the way it's supposed to be. It's hard because as human beings we thrive when we have a goal that requires us to work hard consistently.  Jonny Kim is remarkable because he did three incredibly hard things. Yet, to achieve all of them required him to follow a simple process of study and preparation. It wasn't impossible. All it took was a steely determination to achieve these things, being consistent and, to take control of his calendar.  And that's what this week' question is all about. How to do the the hard things consistently so you start to see progress.  So, let me now hand you over to the Mystery Podcast Voice for this week's question.  This week's question comes from Joe. Joe asks, hi Carl, the one thing I find incredibly hard to be is consistent. I'm great at setting up task managers and notes apps, but after a few days, I stop following the system. How do you stay consistent? Hi Joe, thank you for your question.  There could be two parts to this. The first is what I call the “Shiny Object Syndrome”. This is where you see every new tool on YouTube or in a newsletter as something that promises to solve all your productivity and time management problems.  We all go through this phase. In many ways, I think it's important to do so. This way you learn the limitations of tools and find out, the hard way, that no tool will ever do the work for you.  You also discover that the more addictive the tool (I believe they call it “sticky”), the less work you will do.  For me, Notion was a classic example of that. When Notion first came onto my radar around 2018, I was fascinated. I downloaded the app and began setting it up. It was exciting. Far more editable than Evernote or Apple Notes.  There were all these cool things you could do with it. Change the font, the colours, the background, create increasingly more complex dashboards and so on.  On that first day, I spent eight hours “setting it up”. It was later that evening I realised that if I were to use Notion I would never get any work done. I'd always want to play with it and try and get it to show me what I wanted to see, when I wanted to see it. A goal I was never likely to achieve.  So, I deleted the app.  It came down to one very simple thing. Do I want tools that will help me do my work or not?  Well, the answer was I wanted tools that got me to work fast. And that was not going to be Notion.  The tools that best promote solid work are boring. They have no flamboyant features. They just do what they are meant to do. In other words they are so featureless the only thing you can do is get on and do the work.  I rather envy those people who have the time to be constantly changing their apps. I know from experience that transferring everything to a new app takes time. And then there's the learning curve, although I suspect that's where the dopamine hits come from.  I certainly don't have the time to do that. I'd prefer to spend my free time with my family, walking or playing with Louis or reading books.  The other area where a lack of consistency comes in is when you have no processes for doing your regular work.  Humans work best when they follow a pattern.  If you've ever learned to ride a bicycle, you will remember it was difficult at first. You were wobbly, probably fell off. Yet, if you persisted, today riding a bicycle doesn't require a thought. You jump on and off you go.  There's an illustration that Tony Robbins talks about. When a child learns to walk it's a painfully slow experience. There's the crawling, the pulling itself up on a chair, the inevitable first step and the constant falling over.  Yet, no parent would ever say stop! Give up. You'll never be able to walk.  We persist and after a few days or weeks the child is walking everywhere.  If you want to be consistent with something, there will inevitably be a period of a few weeks or months where things don't go smoothly. Mistakes are made, plenty of falls and a lot of frustration.  That's the initial learning curve. We all have to go through it.  Recently, I updated my iPad to the new operating system. I do this annually to get to know what's new in preparation for updating my Apple Productivity Course.  This year, Apple has significantly changed the design of the operating system. It's slick, fast and very different to what I am used to. Now, each morning, I clear my email inbox on my iPad. I've done this for years and it's automatic. Write my journal, then grab my iPad and clear the inbox.  Over the last few days I've felt a little frustration. The layout of Apple Mail has changed and buttons have moved. For two days I was trying to get rid of the sidebar (a new feature). I done that now and after a week, I'm beginning to get used to the new layout.  The issue here is that those changes slowed down my processing speed. This in turn threw out my routine a little.  It reminded me why changing apps all the time destroys ones productivity. But more importantly it reminded me that consistently following processes ensures speed—which ultimately is what reduces the time required to do the work.  The problem with following routines and processes is that doing so can be boring. Yet, anything worthwhile is going to be boring at times.  But boring is good for your brain. It doesn't have to think too much and it gives it a chance to relax.  Constant stimulation, problem solving, learning to use new apps, messing around with routines and processes that work may be exciting (dopamine hits), but they don't get the work done.  This one of the reasons why having a regular morning routine is a great way to start the day. By following a set routine every morning from the moment you wake up, allows you to do healthy things that do not require a lot of thought.  A morning routine could be making yourself a cup of coffee, doing some stretches, brushing your teeth and taking a shower.  Or it could be a little more with meditation, journal writing or exercise. These are your morning routines, so you get to choose what you do. All that matters is that whatever you choose to be your morning routine, you consistently do it. Every morning (including weekends)  Another way to bring consistency into your life is to put some stakes in the ground. In other words, build some structure around your day based on meal times, for example.  I do the family's laundry when I go down to cook dinner. The washing machine is in the area of the kitchen, so it seems natural to take down the laundry and do the washing while I cook dinner. Once dinner is done, the washing is finished and ready to be hung up. (I refuse to use a dryer as it destroys clothes).  With work, I try to protect 9:30 to 11:30 a.m. each day for doing the most important work of the day. It's not always possible, sometimes I need to be in a meeting, but I will fight tooth and nail to protect that time where possible.  It took a year or so to consistently protect that time, but now, even my wife respects it. She knows not to disturb me when I am doing my focused work.  It's just two hours a day. That still leaves me with six hours for emergencies, customer queries and team requests.  You can also do this with your communications and daily admin. If you were to protect the same time each day to respond to your actionable emails and do whatever admin is required it makes things so much easier for you. If, you were to choose 4:00 to 5:30 p.m. For your communication and admin time, and got serious about protecting that time each day, after a few weeks it would feel very strange if you were not doing it.  This is how Jonny Kim managed to do what most people would consider impossible. It wasn't because he was smarter than anyone else. He never graduated top of his class. Instead it was down to ruthlessly protecting time to study and train.  It's how averagely talented athletes win Olympic gold medals. They prioritise the small things. The long boring runs, the hours in the gym, or practicing their serve over and over again.  It's boring, yes. But it gets results, every time.  And yet, if you were to look at how much time you spent on these routines, it's tiny. Out of twenty-four hours, you're using two to four hours a day on doing the basics.  It's when you don't do that, that you need to find eight to twelve hours just to catch up. And because you don't have a regular process for doing the work, it's slow, feels laborious and horrible and you have to repeat multiple times each month.  When you're consistent, you don't think about it. You just do it. It's neither boring nor difficult. It's just what you do.  Think about brushing your teeth and washing your face. It's boring right? You do it two to three times a day, yet it's something you just do. You don't think about it.  That's how being consistent with doing the important things—keeping backlogs at bay, dealing with messages and emails and doing your core work works.  It's exciting the first time you do it, less so the second time until it's just boring. Then suddenly, it's something you just do. It's neither boring nor exciting.  Getting there is the challenge. That why kids argue with their parents about brushing their teeth or washing their hands before meals. It's boring and unexciting, until it isn't. It's just something they automatically do.  So there you go, Joe. You will have to go through the valley of despair, go through the boredom stage until suddenly, it's just something you do. It's then when you know you are now consistent.  Good luck. Thank you for your question and thank you to you too for listening.  It just remains for me now to wish you all a very very productive week.
