Paige Clingenpeel is joined by Leah Fruth—Live Well Health Coach, fitness instructor, and writer—for an honest conversation about motherhood, grief, and whole-person health. Leah shares how losing her mom while helping care for siblings and raising a young son deeply impacted her physical and emotional well-being. Together, they explore the biblical call to steward our bodies as a gift from God and why valuing ourselves is a spiritual issue, not a selfish one. They also discuss how unforgiveness can weigh heavily on the body and why surrendering our health to God matters. This episode offers simple, practical steps for slowing down, breathing, and caring for your body with intention. It's a meaningful reminder that honoring our bodies is one way we honor our Creator.Resources:Leah Fruth's websiteLet's Reclaim the Truth About Our Body (eBook by Leah Fruth)Paige Clingenpeel's websiteQuestions About the Podcast? Email: paigeclingenpeel@gmail.comFacebook: @Paige ClingenpeelInstagram: @paigeclingenpeelYouTube: Embracing Your Season sponsored by HomeWordHomeWord.com Paige's Takeaways:Being a good steward of our bodies is one way we communicate to God that we value His creation. Caring for our physical, emotional, and spiritual health honors the life He has entrusted to us and reflects gratitude for the body He designed.Unforgiveness carries a real heaviness in our bodies. It often shows up as stress, tension, or emotional exhaustion. Forgiveness is not about excusing wrongdoing, minimizing pain, or always reconciling—it's about releasing the burden of justice into God's hands and freeing ourselves from carrying what was never meant to be ours.Boundaries are incredibly powerful. Saying no can be difficult, especially when we want to please others, but healthy boundaries are a clear sign of stewardship and emotional health. They protect our energy, reduce unnecessary stress, and create space for what God has truly called us to say yes to.Hashtags:#EmbracingYourSeason #PaigeClingenpeel #LeahFruth #Health #Wellness #Motherhood #Christian #Faith #Podcast #PodcastCommunity #HomeWord #PFCAudioVideo Send us a text

What Happens When God Disrupts Your Comfort? | Genesis 12:1-9In this powerful message, we dive into Genesis 12:1-9 and explore how God's call to Abram disrupted his comfort, security, and plans for the future. Abram was called to leave behind everything familiar and step into the unknown, trusting God's promises rather than seeking explanations.Key Takeaways:• God's Disruptive Call: When God calls us to new beginnings, it often feels like the end of something. But every disruption is an invitation to something greater.• Leaving the Familiar: Abram had to leave his country, his people, and his father's house—symbolizing the need to step out of old habits, mindsets, and comforts to embrace God's new plans for our lives.• Faith Walks on Promises: Abram didn't get all the details, but he moved forward on God's promises. Faith isn't about waiting for explanations, it's about trusting what God has already said.• Small Steps, Big Faith: Abram's journey was marked by movement, worship, and flexibility. His simple obedience to God's call created a legacy of faith.Challenge for You: What is your “So Abram went…” step today? What is God asking you to leave behind in order to step into a new beginning with Him?Join us as we reflect on how we can trust God's promises, step out in faith, and move forward even when we don't have all the details.FOLLOW US!WEBSITE: https://www.compassiondickson.church/FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/compassiondicksonINSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/compassionchurchdickson?igsh=eXp3Mm9ubG81aTQx&utm_source=qrSunday Extended Podcast: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLRTsMFJ4TR5xa0PahwBjfzWK772IOi9G8&si=lsIu5iqaQwl79Jwj

The latest In Touch With iOS with Dave Ginsburg. He is joined by Patrice Brend'amour, Jeff Gamet, Eric Bolden, and Marty Jencius.  A year-end discussion covering Apple's biggest stories of 2025. The panel dives into the Vision Pro M5 update, iOS 26.3 beta changes, iPhone 17 improvements, iPad's role as a laptop replacement, Apple's transition away from Intel Macs, security concerns, and reflections on AI tools like ChatGPT as the year comes to a close.

The discussion begins with a deep dive into Apple Vision Pro, focusing on whether the new M5 model is a worthwhile upgrade, who it's really for, and whether Vision Pro should be viewed as a finished product, an emerging platform, or a preview of Apple's long-term spatial computing vision. The panel explores developer adoption, enterprise use cases, and why meaningful spatial productivity apps may take years to fully materialize.   The conversation then shifts to software, including impressions of the iOS 26.3 beta, particularly changes driven by EU regulations and continued refinements across Apple's platforms. Attention turns to the iPhone 17 lineup, where incremental updates, battery life improvements, camera enhancements, USB-C workflows, and vapor cooling spark debate about whether upgrading is worth it year over year.   From there, the panel revisits the ongoing question of whether the iPad can truly replace a laptop, acknowledging its powerful hardware while noting ongoing limitations in iPadOS. The discussion continues with Apple's Mac lineup, highlighting macOS Tahoe as the final release to support Intel Macs and reflecting on how Apple Silicon has reshaped performance, battery life, and upgrade cycles.   Security also enters the spotlight with a discussion on a recent malware case that bypassed macOS Gatekeeper, reinforcing the importance of user awareness despite Apple's protections. The episode wraps with a lighter but thoughtful look at ChatGPT's new year-end summary feature, comparing it to services like Spotify Wrapped and reflecting on how AI tools are becoming increasingly personal in daily workflows.   The episode closes with final thoughts on Apple's 2025 trajectory, community engagement, and what lies ahead as the calendar turns toward 2026.   Topics and Links As 2025 comes to a close we review what happened this year with Apple and technology.  In Touch With Vision Pro this week.  Lets review Vision Pro in 2025 M5 version was released and dual knit head band was this a big upgrade?  Big Picture At the end of 2025, is Vision Pro a product, a platform, or a preview of what's next? Beta This week iOS 26.3 Beta 1 continues  iPhone, iPad year in Review  iPhone iPhone in 2025 focused on refinement over reinvention iPhone 17 Camera improvements emphasized computational photography and video USB-C accessories expanded across storage, audio, and capture workflows Battery efficiency improved through optimization rather than capacity Control Center and privacy tools became more powerful and flexible iPad iPad hardware remained ahead of most real-world use cases iPadOS delivered incremental multitasking and external display improvements Ongoing tension between iPad as a laptop replacement vs companion device Overall theme: quieter updates, smarter systems, and platform stability In Touch With Mac this week Apple officially ended the Intel era with macOS Tahoe, locking in Apple Silicon as the future. We saw M5-powered Macs push performance and battery life even further, while the Mac Studio continued to blur the line with the Mac Pro. It marks the end of official support for Intel-based Macs, meaning future macOS versions after Tahoe will be exclusive to Apple Silicon Macs. We've Finally Reached the End of the Road for Intel Macs Macbook releases this year.

Big changes are less daunting if you make them in smaller increments, and you can start with this edition of Doing What Works.Here are your show notes…Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance is “an inquiry into values.”A minimum viable task is the smallest possible action you can take that still moves you toward a larger goal.Don't trust how you feel about anything after nine o'clock in the evening.I want to tell you something. I think it'll help, but there's a slight chance it'll make it worse.

Send us a textFor the second part of this series, Coach John Wooden reminds us “when you set too challenging a goal, you set yourself up for failure.” Again, it's the small changes that are key. This is not saying to not have BIG goals and plans, but… keep in mind the process (the little steps) to get there.  Little steps help us to keep the good habits going for a longer period of our lives. Keep working.

"Fibromyalgia can completely break your relationship with yourself when your symptoms are unpredictable." Tami Stackelhouse For many of us with fibromyalgia, goal setting doesn't just feel hard. It feels painful. You make a plan on a good day, only to wake up the next morning in pain or exhausted, and suddenly everything falls apart. After that happens enough times, it stops feeling like bad luck and starts to feel personal. You start doubting your body, your brain, and eventually yourself. This is not a character flaw. It's a natural response to living in a body that changes the rules without warning. Traditional goal setting assumes predictable energy, consistent capacity, and stable days; things that fibromyalgia simply does not offer. Instead of trying to force ourselves into systems that don't fit, we need tools that are designed for fibro bodies in the first place. In this episode, Tami shares a completely different approach to goal setting that actually works with fibromyalgia instead of against it. She talks about why starting small is essential when living with fibromyalgia, how managing unpredictable symptoms can slowly erode self trust, why traditional goal setting often fails for fibro bodies, the ferocious turtle metaphor and why steady progress works, why slow is smooth and smooth is fast when managing flares, making goals easier to climb by using small, close rungs, reducing overwhelm and prevent push crash cycles, focusing on rebuilding self trust, not pushing harder, what it really means to set stupidly small goals, how tiny wins rewire the brain, adapting SMART goals so they actually work with fibromyalgia, why flexibility matters, turning SMART goals into SMARTER goals, why awareness is often the first and most important goal, a simple five-step system for setting fibro friendly goals, choosing one small thing and adjusting as you go, how consistent tiny wins rebuild self trust over time, embracing the ferocious turtle mindset, trusting small steps forward, and more. A gentler, more realistic approach to your goals can help you rebuild your confidence and take small steps forward. Remember: slow, steady progress really does count.     Note: This episode is not meant to be medical advice. Every person and every situation is unique.

Send us a textContent Warning: description of stroke and recoveryAbout This EpisodeAt 28, Bessie Sturgis's life took an unexpected turn when she suddenly found herself navigating a stroke diagnosis. In this episode, she shares the micro steps that carried her forward like getting up, writing things down, taking five-minute resets, breathing through the hard moments, and how faith reframed her purpose. We talk about caring for two young children while healing, setting bold boundaries, protecting her energy, and reclaiming her voice, including earning a commercial driver's license after being told she could not. If you need a reset, this story reminds you that small, consistent actions can change everything. About Bessie SturgisBessie Sturgis's journey is defined by faith, perseverance, and purpose. After a life-threatening health crisis when her youngest son was eight months old, she fought her way back through rehabilitation, medication, and prayer, vowing never to let fear or doubt hold her back. Since then, she has embraced life boldly: returning to school for engineering, raising her sons with resilience, and giving back to her community. She is living proof that grace restores, healing is possible, and even after the hardest seasons, you can rise, rebuild, and thrive. Additional ResourcesInstagram: @Blessed_is_bessLinkedIn: @BessieSturgisSupport the show-------- Stay Connected www.leighburgess.com Watch the episodes on YouTube Follow Leigh on Instagram: @theleighaburgess Follow Leigh on LinkedIn: @LeighBurgess Sign up for Leigh's bold newsletter

Ever wondered what would happen if you stopped running on fumes and started living on purpose? Well, you're in the right place! In this episode, I get to chat with the amazing Kerri Patt—a coach, podcast host, and all-around champion for working moms who want to reclaim their calm, set boundaries that actually stick, and find rhythms that nurture both ambition and wellbeing. Kerri and I go way back, and I just adore her energy and wisdom. She shares her wild ride from managing properties in NYC during Hurricane Sandy (yes, really!) to realizing she needed to make some big changes for herself and her family. We talk about the messy, beautiful journey of setting boundaries at work and at home, the myths about time management (spoiler: four hours of deep work is NOT a thing for most moms!), and how to celebrate those tiny wins that add up to big changes. We also get real about saying “no” (even when you want to say yes to everything!), giving yourself grace, and teaching our kids that every day is a fresh start. If you're a working mom, a dreamer, or just someone who wants to live a little more intentionally, this episode is for you! In this episode, you'll hear: My favorite tips for setting boundaries (and why it's so hard!) Kerri's story of finding purpose after burnout How to spot your biggest time-wasters (hello, Instagram and TV!) The magic of morning routines and “top three” priorities Why saying “no” can be the most loving thing you do for yourself How to start small and build momentum toward your big dreams So grab your coffee, pop in those earbuds, and let's dive in together!

I recently hit a wall. Not the kind where you're tired—the kind where you wake up and genuinely don't care anymore. About your business. About your goals. About any of it. And here's what scared me: I saw it coming. I knew I was running on fumes. I just didn't stop. In this conversation, burnout expert Cait Donovan helps me understand why. And it's not what I expected. It's not about workload or boundaries or self-care Sundays. It's about shame. It's about not believing you deserve to have needs in the first place. And it's about rebuilding trust with your own body—starting with something as basic as peeing when you need to pee. In this episode, we cover: → Why shame is the first barrier to meeting your own needs (before finances, before time, before anything else) → Strategic disappointment: how to practice letting people down in small, safe ways so your nervous system learns you won't die → The difference between hyperindependence and strength—and why asking for help feels impossible → How foundational self-care builds emotional intelligence automatically → Why we mistake alignment with that feeling of having "a firecracker up my ass" and what alignment actually feels like (spoiler: it's a settling, not an urgency) This episode is for you if: You're exhausted but can't seem to stop You've ignored your body's signals for so long you don't know what they are anymore You feel guilty resting, asking for help, or disappointing people You've tried to "fix" your burnout by changing external circumstances and it didn't work You suspect the problem isn't your schedule—it's something deeper If you are ready to get support from a community of women who are co-creating this change with intention and clarity— Click here to BOOK A DISCOVERY CALL.  Do you want help from Colleen with a situation you're struggling with?

The show opens with a discussion about the frigid weather sweeping across the country, before moving into Apple's newly announced App Award Winners. The panel covers winners across iPhone, iPad, Mac, Apple TV, and Vision Pro—including the iPhone App of the Year Timbo and Vision Pro winner Explore POV—with commentary on design choices, spatial computing innovation, and whether they personally use the selected apps. Next, the 2025 Apple Podcast of the Year—The Rest Is History—leads the group into a conversation about podcast quality, history storytelling, and the growing depth of Apple's podcast ecosystem. Updates to visionOS 26.2 RC are discussed, including expanded Travel Mode for buses and cars, support for spatial accessories (like Logitech's stylus), and improvements to Freeform. Eric even admits the new features were compelling enough for him to install the beta. Updates for iOS/iPadOS 26.2 RC also make news, adding the Liquid Glass lock screen slider, Reminders alarms, new AirPods Live Translation support in the EU, and Podcasts app refinements. Jeff warns listeners to hold off on macOS Tahoe due to persistent audio issues, reinforcing that stability still matters more than flash. The show then pivots into a major AI segment featuring:     •    Anthropic's Claude Opus 4.5, touted as the new coding champion among AI tools     •    ChatGPT's new holiday shopping assistant, which impressed some panelists     •    The controversial discovery of ads in ChatGPT's app code, sparking fears of "enshittification"     •    A possible Apple Health integration, which launches a passionate privacy debate     •    Real-world examples of AI massively reducing work time—from spreadsheets to meeting analytics The group revisits Apple's newest patent describing a crease-free foldable iPhone using liquid metal, prompting speculation on durability, user experience, and whether Apple can create a foldable without the hallmark crease. Apple's Year-End Music Charts and Apple Music Replay lead to panelists sharing their most-played artists—ranging from Supertramp to Rush to 80s icons—and poking fun at Dave's unavoidable Taylor Swift top rankings. Apple also releases a beautifully produced Accessibility in College ad, highlighting assistive technologies like magnifier, voiceover, and live captions. The panel praises Apple's leadership in accessible design and speculates on future features for glasses-based products. Finally, the team dives into a major Apple Arcade update, featuring five new games including Subway Surfers+, SpongeBob Patty Pursuit 2, PowerWash Simulator, and more. The topic unexpectedly evolves into a discussion of how simulation games—like power washing or trucking—can offer therapeutic calm for many players.

Feeling isolated as a neurodivergent man? In this episode of Adulting with Autism, host April talks modern masculinity for ND men with Josh Fineman, founder of Mensch—a North London community helping guys unplug from pressure and reconnect via men's circles, nature challenges, and 1:1 coaching. For autistic/ADHD young fathers (35-40s sweet spot), Josh addresses loneliness, purpose voids, and disconnection from self—blending ancient wisdom/modern tools for emotional courage and growth. Key insights: Core pressures: Ticking boxes (career/family) while losing self—loneliness from no village support. Men's circles magic: Safety (confidentiality/no fixing) + challenge (calling forward) for shared growth. Nature therapy anxiety: Grounding (feet on grass/breath), tree "waving" for ND calm. Unlocking purpose: Non-linear—trust instincts, small steps (follow curiosity, no one-fix pressure). Vulnerability wins: Brotherhood normalizes it; emerge via community, not solo. If you're an ND man battling isolation, burnout, or "proving" yourself (like Josh's zigzags to mentorship), this ep inspires action. Free call at bemoremensch.com—build your tribe!

The latest In Touch With iOS with Dave he is joined by Patrice Brend'amour, Jill McKinley, Jeff Gamet, Marty Jencius, Guy Serle. A post-Thanksgiving Apple tech roundtable: Vision Pro M5 vs M2, spatial video, iOS 26 beta updates, USB drives vs digital media, AirTag travel upgrades, Plex limitations, Spotify price hikes, the $149 iPhone pocket, Peanuts specials on Apple TV+, and plenty of laughs between the full panel.

The panel begins with Apple Vision Pro, diving into the M5 vs. M2 comparison, app support concerns, frozen iPad-based apps, spatial vs. 3D video, and why personas remain one of the Vision Pro's most underrated features. Several panelists challenge a recent critical article about Vision Pro, noting that the platform is still early and evolving. Next, the group covers iOS 26 beta updates and Apple's Invites app, leading to a comedic sidebar about who exactly uses the app — if anyone. This transitions into a deep (and funny) debate over USB thumb drives, CDs/DVDs, Blu-rays, and digital vs. physical media. From enterprise security to indie concert CDs, everyone shares stories illustrating why physical media is "dead"… or maybe not so dead. More news includes AirTag upgrades that help airlines locate lost luggage, Spotify preparing another round of price increases, and Plex restricting free users from sharing library access — which sparked concerns among Plex users on Apple TV. The crew also reacts to Apple's limited-run $149 iPhone "pocket" accessory, Pocket Casts adding smart playlists, and Peanuts holiday specials becoming Apple TV+ exclusives. The episode wraps with chat room highlights and each panelist sharing where they can be found online.

We made it to Episode 100! And today's milestone episode is a heartfelt celebration of God's faithfulness, obedience, and the power of speaking life. In this special episode, I take you all the way back to the exact day I launched this podcast—how nervous and excited I felt, how unqualified I thought I was, and the unforgettable message a friend sent me after listening to that very first episode. She spoke life, purpose, and prophetic encouragement over this show… and looking back now, she had no idea how accurate her words would be. Because today, this podcast is a globally ranked show, reaching women all around the world with messages of hope, identity, and purpose in Christ. Only God could write a story like this. To honor how far we've come, I'm doing something special: ✨ I'm replaying the very first episode — a “sweet repeat”... so you can hear where it all began. Whether you've been here since day one or you're just now joining this journey, this episode is a reminder that: – God wastes nothing – Obedience opens doors you can't see yet – Your “small beginning” is never small to Him – And He is absolutely faithful to finish what He starts Thank you for being part of this incredible journey. Here's to the next 100 episodes — and everything God still has in store! Listen in and celebrate with me! Xoxo Coach Joy    JOIN THE JOYFUL FIT LIFE COMMUNITY FOR FREE

Barry led a powerful session on belief, planning, and execution—highlighting that success in real estate and life comes from consistent daily habits, not big sporadic actions. He introduced the concept of Kaizen, the practice of making small, continuous improvements, and explained James Clear's habit loop: cue → craving → response → reward. Barry shared practical steps for building strong habits in 2026, including starting small, removing friction, tracking progress, and celebrating incremental wins. He encouraged attendees to apply these principles to both business and personal goals, reminding them that the compounding effect of small, daily actions creates massive long-term results.

Becoming Your Best Self with Beth Young: Small Steps to Big ChangeIn this inspiring episode of Linda's Corner: Inspiration for a Better Life, I sit down with Beth Young — keynote speaker, health and wellness coach, founder of The Great Calm, and recipient of the Houston Women in Excellence Award — to talk about how to become your best self through small, consistent changes.Beth's life is a testament to the power of intentional living. Raised in a home surrounded by smoking and drinking, she made a bold decision early on: “That's not how I want to live.” That choice, rooted in self-awareness, would go on to serve her through some of life's toughest challenges — including surviving a brain tumor and a traumatic brain injury from a devastating car accident. Her neurologist was amazed by her recovery, saying, “You're six months ahead of others with the same injury because you live your 5 pillars.”Beth shares her powerful 5 Pillars of Health:NutritionMovementRelationshipsQuality SleepMindfulnessThese pillars are simple, accessible, and profoundly effective — especially when practiced consistently. “It's not rocket science,” Beth explains. “We just do the basics, and we do them consistently.”We also dive into:A unique breathing technique that can prevent anxiety attacksThe importance of “starting small” when making life changesWhy movement-based meditations, like tai chi, are perfect for those who struggle with traditional meditationHow “walkie talkies” — walking with a friend — can enhance both physical and emotional wellnessOne of my favorite takeaways from our conversation: “Did you know you cannot have an anxiety attack if you're getting enough oxygen to your brain? So I'm going to show you this really cool, unique way to breathe...”This episode is a beautiful reminder that becoming your best self doesn't require perfection — just consistent, mindful effort.Connect with Beth Young: 

Host: Mindy McCulley, MS Family and Consumer Sciences Extension Specialist for Instructional Support, University of Kentucky  Guest: Monica Mundy, PhD Assistant Extension Professor for Family and Community Health Season 8, Episode 24 In the episode of  Talking FACS host Mindy McCulley sits down with guest Dr. Monica Mundy, Extension Specialist for Family and Community Health. They explore the eight dimensions of wellness — emotional, environmental, financial, intellectual, occupational, physical, social, and spiritual — and discuss why balance across these areas matters for overall quality of life. Dr. Mundy explains the "wellness wheel" metaphor and offers practical, research-based strategies listeners can use: mindfulness and journaling for emotional health; decluttering and accessing green spaces for environmental wellness; budgeting and small savings for financial security; puzzles and lifelong learning for intellectual wellness; setting boundaries and finding satisfaction for occupational wellness; daily movement, better sleep, and nutrition for physical wellness; nurturing supportive relationships for social wellness; and meditation, prayer, or gratitude practices for spiritual wellness. The episode emphasizes starting small: take an inventory of the eight areas, pick one realistic step, and build habits over time to create lasting balance and improved wellbeing.

Have you ever felt like you have to quit pornography perfectly or not at all? Many people fall into the trap of believing it's all or nothing—total success or complete failure.
