Podcasts about Solitude

In this final episode of our season Can't Do It All, Anna welcomes back Rooted podcaster Alice Churnock and introduces our brand-new executive director Hannah Dow. We invited them to talk about the (potential) overwhelm of being a mother. Both of these moms juggle full-time jobs while running their households, caring for elderly parents, serving at church, and attempting to maintain friendships and good health. Additionally, Hannah is a single mother. You'll want to hear how they find rest in the gospel, but you'll also glean some practical tips. Be encouraged by their wholehearted pursuit of Jesus in the midst of their busy lives. Alice Churnock is the Founder of BrainCore of Birmingham, and a Licensed Professional Counselor-Supervisor with more than 20 years of experience counseling adolescents. She and her husband have two teenage boys. Hannah Dow is the Executive Director of Rooted; she previously served on Rooted's Board of Directors and wrote articles for the blog. She and her daughter, Neal, love road trips, local bookstores, and dabbling with watercolors.  Ask Alice podcast on RootedAlice Churnock author pageHannah Dow author pageRest for Your Soul: A Bible Study on Solitude, Silence, and Prayer by Wendy Blight (this needs a link from Amazon; for some reason I have lost access to that account!)Erin Condren Planners Matthew 11:28-30 Phil 1:6, 4:13Daniel 3 Follow us @rootedministry! Subscribe to the Rooted Parent Podcast wherever you listen to podcasts.

Every entrepreneur knows that having a good idea is only the beginning of the process.  To be successful you need to take that idea to market.  This involves production which involves people, organization, and year of hard effort.  At times the loneliness of the innovator can be so intense that we want to stop innovating altogether.  And yet innovation, novelty, beginning new things is part and parcel of the call to evangelize.  How does Christian grace sanctify the innovator's solitude.

Today's guest is a truly remarkable creative – novellist, screenwriter, playwright, producer, past resident of the Royal Court Theatre, co-founder of the Harvard Human Rights Journal, winner of the John Cassavetes Award for film, as well as the first American to receive a fellowship to the European Court of Human Rights. I spoke with Alice Austen about her debut book, 33 Place Brugmann, which is a suspenseful, emotive portrait of a Brussels apartment block during the Second World War. It's always a pleasure to speak with such a fascinating polymath, and I hope you all enjoy listening.Lit with Charles loves reviews. If you enjoyed this episode, I'd be so grateful if you could leave a review of your own, and follow me on Instagram at @litwithcharles.

Send us a textIn this Wisdom Wednesday episode, I'm getting real about one of the most underrated growth hacks: solitude. If you've ever felt torn between locking in and going out, this episode is for you.I break down why your fear of being alone might be the very thing holding you back from reaching your full potential. From my own experience—dropping out of college during a pandemic, working two jobs, and grinding for my real estate license—I share how isolation became the launchpad for massive growth in my 20s.Here's what you'll hear:The difference between loneliness and intentional solitudeWhy constant socializing could be slowing your successHow taking a “sprint season” in solitude gave me the clarity and discipline to level upThe importance of getting off the grid to tune in to your own voice (and maybe even hear from God)This isn't about being antisocial—it's about knowing when to retreat so you can come back stronger. If you're serious about chasing your goals, it's time to get comfortable being alone.

One of the most commonly used phrases to describe the experience of leadership is “it's lonely at the top.”  The phrase resonates with leaders of all stripes and colors but what does it mean for a Christian?  Is there a way to find a deeper meaning to the solitude of leadership?  How did Jesus live His life as a leader?  How did the saints do it time and again?  And in what way can this pathway of solitude be a pathway of holiness for us today?  Here is Part One of our new series Embracing Solitude.

The post Sabbath, Solitude, Prayer appeared first on The Vineyard Church.

What might our future look like if we begin sowing the rhythm of solitude into our discipleship with Jesus?

We live in a me-first culture, but investing in the future will change not only your life but the lives of those who depend on you. Today, we look at how tomorrow matters to our giving and what we are investing in will have eternal significance.  Life Group Questions1. What are some of the best uses of the money that God gives us?2. What will life look like 10 years from now if you start investing in things that matter most? What will that do for your bank account and your soul?3. What are the strongest barriers in your life that keep you from investing in what matters most?4. Read 2 Corinthians 9:6, 1 Timothy 6:9, and Ephesians 3:16-17. Take time to make observations about each set of verses and what they mean to the tomorrow that we invest in.5. End your time by praying for one another and begin to schedule a time to spend alone with God in anticipation of our Solitude focus for September.

The episode offers an in-depth conversation between Stefan and a 23-year-old caller struggling with feelings of emptiness post-conversion to Catholicism. The discussion reveals the caller's affluent but isolating upbringing, marked by the early death of his mother and the pressures to excel academically in music. The pandemic exacerbated his challenges, leading to a breakdown and withdrawal from music school. The conversation explores his anxiety, social awkwardness, particularly in romantic contexts, and his complex family dynamics, where differing ideological views have further isolated him. Stefan encourages the caller to reframe his perceptions of relationships and mental health, promoting social engagement as a means to combat isolation. The episode underscores the interplay between personal history, mental health, and the necessity of community and connections in overcoming feelings of purposelessness.FOLLOW ME ON X! https://x.com/StefanMolyneuxGET MY NEW BOOK 'PEACEFUL PARENTING', THE INTERACTIVE PEACEFUL PARENTING AI, AND THE FULL AUDIOBOOK!https://peacefulparenting.com/Join the PREMIUM philosophy community on the web for free!Subscribers get 12 HOURS on the "Truth About the French Revolution," multiple interactive multi-lingual philosophy AIs trained on thousands of hours of my material - as well as AIs for Real-Time Relationships, Bitcoin, Peaceful Parenting, and Call-In Shows!You also receive private livestreams, HUNDREDS of exclusive premium shows, early release podcasts, the 22 Part History of Philosophers series and much more!See you soon!https://freedomain.locals.com/support/promo/UPB2025

Pendant le mois d'août, Inpower fait peau neuve et vous propose une enquête pour profiter du calme de l'été et prendre le temps d'aborder un grand sujet de société.Dans le premier épisode, avec le journaliste Vincent Cocquebert on a essayé de comprendre se qui se cache derrnière “l'individualisme contemporain”. Au-delà du simple fait de penser à soi, c'est un monde dans lequel on est invités à tout choisir : sa vie, ses croyances, ses relations. Mais aussi un monde dans lequel les grands repères collectifs se sont effondrés : le travail, l'amour, la politique, la religion. Une vie sur mesure qui peut mener à une certaine forme d'angoisse et dont l'un des effets les plus concrets, les plus silencieux aussi, est aussi la solitude.C'est le thème de ce deuxième épisode. Dans un monde où on souhaite être de plus en plus libres, défaits de toutes les contraintes et les frictions, est-ce qu'on a pas créé un boulevard pour des nouvelles solitudes ?Pour en parler, on reçoit Matthieu Chaigne, spécialiste en sciences comportementales et auteur de La fabrique des solitaires.Il a mené des enquêtes passionnantes pour comprendre pourquoi, dans une société ultra-connectée, des millions de Français se sentent seuls.On explorera les grands facteurs de cette vague silencieuse :la société du tout-marchand, le numérique, la fin des lieux communs, l'atomisation du travail,et cette idée plus profonde encore : avons-nous perdu confiance dans l'autre ?Pour retrouver l'ouvrage de Matthieu Chaigne : https://editionsdelaube.fr/catalogue_de_livres/la-fabrique-des-solitaires/Une enquête par Noa Ammar.

Thanks to Maxxis Tires | FOX | Jenson USA for supporting The Inside LineThis Inside Line podcast episode, recorded at the Pro Downhill Series in Solitude, Utah, features Shawn Spomer from Vital MTB interviewing Michael McQueen—better known as “The Mangler”—about his pivotal but often behind-the-scenes role in U.S. downhill racing coverage. McQueen shares the origins of his nickname from his BMX days, his North Carolina roots, and his background in professional broadcasting, including work with NASCAR.He explains how his DIY BMX filming ethos, combined with big-network experience, led him to refine the race replay format that has become a cornerstone of U.S. downhill media. The discussion highlights the enormous logistics behind capturing and editing race footage—from assembling crews and cameras to coordinating with regional series—and contrasts his storytelling style with World Cup broadcasts. McQueen's story underscores how passion, persistence, and community collaboration have fueled the growth of U.S. downhill coverage.

Well, friends, this is bittersweet, because today we wrap up Season 5 of Whit's End. In this episode, I interview Sarah Thomas, who joins us on sabbatical from across the Atlantic Ocean at a place called Capernwray Hall north of London. I had the privilege of crossing paths with Sarah recently when I was invited to participate in a retreat she was leading in Colorado, a retreat that ended up being just what I most needed, a couple days of very vulnerable conversation with other women and long stretches of alone time with Jesus. In this episode, we talk about the importance of solitude - what it is, why it's such a worthwhile spiritual discipline, and how we can practically pursue it. Sarah briefly shares her testimony and gives the back story of all that led her to start this ministry called Breathe that aims to help you carve out spaces for solitude right where you are. Let's dive in!IG: @dstforhim, @ministries.breathe Show Notes: breathe-ministries.comhttps://torchbearers.org/Quotes:“I came into Bible school thinking I knew everything about Christianity, and I left four years later realizing just how little I understood and with a much better understanding of the actual gospel, which has a lot more to do with Jesus living the Christian life than Sarah living the Christian life. And that was important for me because I was putting a lot of stock into my own successful living of the Christian life.”“Wow, I am tired, and I am 20+ years into ministry now, and I don't want to just struggle, and fade, and not end well. And I don't want that for my friends.”“In my heart and mind, I felt there was a need for leaders to get together, to have a little more freedom in their time at a retreat, to be pushed into a little more solitude, and then to be around other like-minded leaders where they could really be real.” “I think our greatest need is actually to meet with Jesus…The amazing thing is that he is fully available to us.”“I believe solitude is a bit of a lost art, and it's something that is not rocket science, and that I've begun to practice in my own personal journey not because I thought it was right and I must do this to be a good Christian, but because I recognize that I need Jesus to help me right now and I don't know the next right thing.”“Our God is a living God, and you know if we were just following a set of principles, we could just study. And there's a lot of great quotes out there…but the reality is that you don't know how God is always going to answer. And I think He's a living God who loves us and He has His own plans, and believe it or not they aren't always our plans.” “We know from scripture, he's after faith…He's after your heart trusting Him…”“Seeking the Lord in solitude is a posture of trust.”“I have found more and more the Lord desires so much for me to just lean in, knowing my need for Him, trusting Him, knowing my brokenness and His ability.”“Solitude is a beautiful way of expressing knowing our need for Him, our understanding of our need for Him. Then He surprises us.” Verses Psalm 73James 4:8Psalm 73:28Psalm 91:1

Genesis 37-41Daniel 1-2, 6John 2, 13, 16Psalm 22

In practicing solitude, we follow Jesus—who drew near to the Father, drew out the Enemy's lies, and drew from God's Word.

We're back with another episode in our Spiritual Formation series, and this time we're exploring the quiet, but powerful, practice of solitude. In a culture that celebrates busyness and constant activity, solitude can feel counter-cultural, even uncomfortable. But solitude isn't simply about stepping away from noise or slowing down our schedules. It's about intentionally stepping toward God, making space to be fully present with Him. In this episode, we talk about what it means to “Be still,” how to resist the pull of distraction, and why solitude can be one of the most life-giving practices for our souls. If you're longing for a deeper connection with God in the midst of life's noise, this conversation will encourage you to slow down, be still, and truly meet with Him. Episode Highlights:  Spiritual Formation Disciplines  Meet Brittany! Solitude  Slowing down   Find More on Hope Bridge/Links from this Episode: The Way of the Heart: Connecting with God Through Prayer, Wisdom, and Silence by Henri Nouwen  Out of Solitude: Three Meditations on the Christian Life by Henri Nouwen Invitation to Solitude and Silence: Experiencing God's Transforming Presence by Ruth Haley Barton Visit Our Website  Follow us on Instagram Follow us on Facebook  Foster Our Community Instagram  Register for the FASD Workshop

Welcome to the Be It Till You See It podcast where we talk about taking messy action, knowing that perfect is boring. I'm Lesley Logan, Pilates instructor and fitness business coach. I've trained thousands of people around the world and the number one thing I see stopping people from achieving anything is self-doubt. My friends, action brings clarity and it's the antidote to fear. Each week, my guest will bring bold, executable, intrinsic and targeted steps that you can use to put yourself first and Be It Till You See It. It's a practice, not a perfect. Let's get started.Lesley Logan 0:47  Hi Be It babe, welcome to your Fuck Yeah Friday, this short, sweet and hopefully very inspiring episode where I share something that inspired me, that hopefully is useful for you, a win of yours and a win of mine, and it reminds us that we're not perfect bands, thank God, and that we are doing the best we can to make life a better place for ourselves and those around us, right? So the thing that came across my feed that I was like, oh, I gotta share this with the Be It Pod babes says 19 Powerful Sentences by Carl Jung That Will Change How You View the World. Okay, I'm gonna take the time to read all 19, and so we'll put the link in the show notes, so that if there's one that like stands out to you, you can go back and you can screenshot it and save it for yourself. Number one, I am not what happened to me. I am what I choose to become. I mean, if that's not be it till you see it, right, I don't know what is. Number two, everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves. Ooh, love that. Number three, if the path before you is clear, you're probably on someone else's. Number four, you are what you do, not what you say you'll do. Well, that's another be it till you see it one. Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life, and you will call it fate. Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life, and you will call it fate. Where your fear is, there your task is. Talk about this and the opening credit, opening music of the pod, right? Like do, got to do things that's scary because that's where clarity comes from. Yeah, it's antidote to fear. Action is. Your visions will become clear only when you can look into your own heart. Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes. So, your visions will become clear only when you can look into your own heart. Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakes. No tree, it is said, can grow to heaven unless its roots reach down to hell. The world will ask who you are, and if you don't know, the world will tell you. People will do anything, no matter how absurd, in order to avoid facing their own souls. The first half of life is devoted to forming a healthy ego, the second half is going inward and letting go of it. Isn't that the truth that's so adulting, it's so hard. Okay, one does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making the darkness conscious. If a man knows more than others, he becomes lonely. Where wisdom reigns, there is no conflict between thinking and feeling. No matter how isolated you are and how lonely you feel, if you do your work truly and conscientiously, unknown friends will come and seek you. So true. Thinking is difficult, that's why most people judge. That's amazing. Know all the theories, master all the techniques, but as you touch a human soul, be just another human soul. Solitude is for me a fount of healing, which makes my life worth living. Talking is often torment for me, and I need many days of silence to recover from the futility of words. The privilege of a lifetime is to become who you truly are. That's a be it till you see it. Oh, I'm so glad we ended with that one. Brilliant, wonderful, beautiful. I'm gonna save that one just because, like, keep it for myself. Oh my gosh. So, so good. So I would love to know which one of those are your favorite. Which ones you're gonna put on a Post-It. Like our other guests have said about things, to remind yourself, because that's what we need, right? Lesley Logan 4:27  All right, now let's do a win of yours. This is from Stacey Extence. She's an Agency member. We've had her for a long, long time, and I'm really proud she's had a couple wins that she shared with you as before. So I'm grateful that she's letting us share another one. She said okay, this month has been crazy insane in the best possible way. Apparently, all I needed to do was go out of town and stop stressing for things to start rolling. Pause. I gotta tell you this. Listen to that again. I just needed to go out of town and stop stressing. You guys cannot micromanage your stress and the constraint and control you're trying to have around the dreams you have are what's keeping it from happening. So do the work. Do not just like manifest that shit, like, do the actual work, but also kind of let go of the control of how it plays out. Okay. Coming back to Stacy's win. Best month ever in revenue. It was a nice blend of packages and group classes. I could actually pay my bills with the money made this month. This is the first time all year that has happened. Six new clients dropped in my calendar, and most have been repeat clients. I taught my first blind client. I was mindful to use my hands to make noise on the equipment, brushing over the spring so she could hear where they were, shaking the handles and straps, etcetera. I also guided her hand while describing the Reformer. After my initial follow up text, she said that she was absolutely loved it and couldn't stop talking about it all last weekend, she's coming in every weekend in June for more lessons. Two random folks who've never done Pilates saw my fundraising event on Facebook and are coming to the Mat Raiser next weekend. I'm hoping to flip one or both into regular clients. Have an opportunity to team up and do an event with a local female social group who has events in the Milwaukee area, looking at August timeframe, and the apartment conflicts I reached out to would like to partner with me, so I got to make the flyer for their newsletters to homeowners, as well as a digital piece for the TVs and the lobbies. Humongous, like, so many wins in just the time that you like, sat down, got quiet and went on a vacation, Stacey. First of all, we have to acknowledge you did the work, all right? You did the effort in to make the Mat Raiser, that's a fundraiser guys, happen that you told people about it. Also, you didn't get scared and go, oh, I'm not capable of teaching someone who's blind. You're like, no, I can teach a body. I just have to learn how to tell them what we're doing, because it's going to challenge me. Like, I just think that a lot of us often don't raise our hands to say, yeah, I'll do that. And others want to do things, but then we don't do the things around it to make sure people know, like we talked about this in past episodes, some people won't share what they're working on until it's perfectly done. No, tell people you're working on your website. Tell people what you want to be until you see, tell people what you're doing. Why? Because they will help you. Before I was a certified Pilates instructor, I was telling everyone I was becoming a certified Pilates instructor. Guess what? I want to take Pilates with you. And so then I had practice bodies to teach. So at the studio that I was becoming a teacher, right? So I was able to actually teach even more bodies as a brand new teacher than if I had not told anyone all, so I was an even better teacher when I graduated. So you got to share with people what's going on, what you're working on, so that they can cheer you on. At the very least, right? At the very least. Lesley Logan 4:27  Okay, my win. So I hired myself a trainer. We're going in month three with this person, and so when is I hired a trainer? I think I've talked about this in the podcast before. I'm still celebrating it, because I have to pay every single month to keep it going. And I wanted to share with you that, like, a win can be just repeating an investment you made on yourself, right? Two, it has been really, really nice to let someone pour into me. So the second win is that I am receiving, receiving someone's expertise in my life around something that I'm knowledgeable but not an expert in, and it's just so nice. So I just want to say like you might be a great cook or a great housekeeper of your own house, or even a great person with your own dogs. And guess what, you might need help, right? And so investing in people who actually want to make the thing that you can do well, but they can do great as their business, investing in them is a way of practicing receiving and indulging in yourself and prioritizing yourself. And so here we are going into the fourth month of working together. She's able to like, handle like, okay, this month, I'm not in town, I'm not in my gym, so here's what I have access to, and she's able to give me workouts. And so I don't have to be creative, I could just focus on the things that I'm really good at. And so I just love this win so much. Because my hope is it inspires you. If there's something that you need to do, just because you can doesn't mean you should. I have a client that I've been working with, and she is on a weight loss journey, and so she's got a trainer, she's got me, and we were talking about some things, and she's like, yeah, I just need to get better at my meal planning, and I said to her I know you actually have been on this journey for a long time, and you've done tons of research, and I know you know all the things, but have you thought about getting help with this just for a month? So not a full-time investment, not a forever investment, just like a two weeks or a 30-day investment, and to see how it makes you feel. Does even having it for just your lunches help you only have to plan your dinners, because it can be overwhelming to meal plan all of your meals to help give you the nutrition and fuel that you need for the workouts that you're doing and for the life you want to have. That can be overwhelming, but if you have some help in it, it allows you to go I just only have to focus on the dinners, right? Like we have to make things a little easier for ourselves, the things we want to do and outsourcing it for a short period of time is a win. It's not a failure. It's not like, oh, I couldn't do it. It's like, no, I'm seeking out help. You know, I used to get meals delivered when I worked in a studio, because I wouldn't, I just didn't have the time every single day to prep my breakfast and my lunch. It was just so, so hard. So I had someone send it to the studio, breakfast and lunch, Monday through Friday. So I get to the studio and there would be my breakfast and lunch, and I just had to worry about dinner. And it was so nice because I would just, I'd only to go grocery shopping for dinner and not only that, and it was wonderful to help make sure I was fueled for the day. You know, meal plan doesn't have to actually have anything to do with weight loss, and it can actually just have everything to do with like, giving yourself nutrition. So anyways, my win is receiving the expert support and continuing to do it and hopefully inspiring you to just evaluate in your life, where it could just be a little bit helpful to have someone support you somewhere. Maybe OPC is the thing that supports your movement practice, or if you're a Pilates instructor, maybe agency becomes a support in your life, right? Yes, these things are investments. Yes, they cost money. And I'm going to tell you right now, when I had the meal delivery service, it wasn't like I was rolling in it. It was an expense, but it literally meant that I wasn't wasting food and that I wasn't so frustrated. So actually, my business was better because I had more energy to be in it. I'm just saying, sometimes we have to spend money to make money, right? Sometimes we need to invest in ourselves. We can go the next level to be it till I see it.
