In this message, Elena Ciobo unpacks one of Jesus' most famous prayers—“Your kingdom come, Your will be done.” Elena shows us that God's will isn't about figuring out every detail, it's about trusting the One who already has.

Got a question about the show? Click here & Send us a text!Hey, Legends! Welcome back to The Building Talks Podcast!In this episode, we're stepping into a part of the design world that often flies under the radar, but impacts all of us daily, landscape architecture. I had the pleasure of sitting down with Debbie Laporte, Director at Orterra, a Brisbane-based design practice making serious waves in shaping the way we move through, experience, and connect with public space.While we've hosted plenty of architects and interior designers before, this was our first real deep dive into landscape architecture, and it opened my eyes. Debbie shared how thoughtful design influences everything from city centres and local parks to tram stops, walkways, and the playgrounds our kids love.We explored how great outdoor spaces encourage movement, social connection, and better living. It's not just about plants or paving, it's about designing for people, community, and flow. Once you start noticing it, you see it everywhere.If you've ever walked through a public space and felt like it just works, chances are someone like Debbie had a hand in it.

It's easy to blame outside forces when progress stalls, but sometimes the real slowdown happens inside our own heads. Constant second-guessing, perfectionism, and chasing too many ideas at once can quietly kill momentum. Business starts to feel like a loop—busy days with little real progress, and a creeping sense that something's off. Often, the problem isn't the plan or the tools—it's the noise we create for ourselves that keeps us from moving forward. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O2sXTBuGzJ4 Dennis Hall is an Australian entrepreneur, business growth champion, and author specializing in supporting micro businesses.

I couldn't be more excited to share this episode with you! Ryan Shelton has been on the top of my guest wish list since I started Pass Around the Smile. His episode on the Imperfects Podcast on Shame, Jealousy and Purpose changed my life. And today, I hope this episode can have a similar effect on my beautiful community!Ryan and I have a very open, casual, yet vulnerable conversation about the struggles we have both faced within the film and television industry. We dive into everything from rejection and competition, to the emotional resilience it takes to keep going ~ and the tough inner dialogue that shows up when we feel like we've failed. Ryan is so generous in sharing his thoughts ~ which I know will help my Smilie's feel understood on many different levels. We also chat about how our goals can shift over time, and how doing the inner work can reveal that the big milestone we were chasing may not actually be what brings us happiness. Often, we place so much pressure on one “peak moment” that we forget to celebrate the beautiful things happening in between. This episode is a powerful reminder that joy, success, and fulfilment aren't reserved for some far-off finish line ~ they're available to us now, in the everyday.A BIT ABOUT RYAN: Ryan Shelton is a writer, actor, comedian, producer and podcast host who somehow manages to keep heart at the centre of everything he does. From Rove Live to We Can Be Heroes, to writing for award-winning shows with Hamish and Andy, his creative work has shaped some of Australia's most iconic entertainment. But it's his honest, vulnerable work on The Imperfects podcast that's creating a deeper kind of impact ~ helping people feel seen, heard, and understood.

What if the biggest problem in your life isn't the people around you… but who's sitting on the throne of your heart?

What if they're actually about freedom, love, and surrender?In a world chasing status and authority, Jesus flips the script. He doesn't call us to rule over one another - He calls us to serve. He calls us to submit to Him, and through Him, to one another in humility and love.

In this vulnerable episode, I share a moment I'm not proud of ~ a quiet judgement I made about someone else that caught me off guard. But instead of pushing it away, I looked at it closely… and realised it had nothing to do with them, and everything to do with a fear I hadn't fully healed in myself. With a focus on social media, in this episode I chat about the pressure we feel as a society to prove to others that we are 'happy' or 'successful,' or looking and feeling good. However what I've learned, is that success doesn't have to look loud. When I felt into this ~ the need to prove to others how 'well' I was doing melted away. It allowed me to breathe, the pressure melted away and I started becoming enjoying my life a lot more! This episode is also for anyone who's ever felt irrelevant, behind, or like their best achievements are already behind them. I explore how we measure our worth by the last “big thing” we did, and how that pressure to constantly top ourselves keeps us stuck in self-doubt.We also dive into; ~ The freedom that comes when we understand our projections~ Why we over-explain and justify ourselves when we're feeling unworthy~ How letting go of the need to prove our success to others brings a refreshing, peaceful energy. And I close with some reflective questions to help you redefine what success truly means to you:

In Paul's appeal to the Colossian church, he reiterates the creative and sovereign power of Jesus in a what seems to be a known song or prayer. For Paul, everything is about Jesus. It is Christ who is the agent in creation, it is Christ who reigns over all things, and it Christ who redeems and reconciles creation back to God. In Christ, our relationship with God can be restored. That is what gives us hope. That is what gives us meaning and purpose. That is what gives us life. That is true power. The invitation for everyone is to make Jesus King. Make Jesus King over all things. If you need prayer, we're here for you.

We've all experienced moments when life underdelivers—when expectations are high, but reality hits hard. From dodgy online purchases to family letdowns, disappointment can be all too familiar. But what if the problem isn't just with our circumstances—but with our perspective of God? In this powerful message, we're challenged to see Jesus for who He really is—not just a kind teacher or miracle worker, but the supreme King over all creation. Paul's words in Colossians paint a breathtaking picture of Christ's majesty, His creative power, and His redemptive love.If you need prayer, we're here for you.

In this message, Andrew unpacks that as Christians, we live in the tension of being in this world under earthly ‘kings' and members of earthly nations, yet we are citizens of another world and dominion – the ‘kingdom of light' as Paul refers to it in his letter to the Colossians. The question that we wrestle with as members of this kingdom is - how? How can we exist with all the pressures and temptations of the world around us? How do we ‘live a worthy life and please him in every way'? Well, Paul's answer is simple. Ask. Ask that the Holy Spirit fill you with knowledge, wisdom and understanding.

In this message, Andrew shares how the resurrection of Jesus speaks directly into the brokenness we see in the world and feel in our own lives. We're reminded that the resurrection of Jesus Christ defeated the power of sin and death that has plagued every person in every culture throughout every generation.

On the night before He died, Jesus gave His disciples a newcommand – to love one another. This doesn't seem all that new at first glance. The Old Testament law commanded God's people to love their neighbour (Leviticus 19:18) and the expert in the law knew the whole law could be summed up by “Loving God and loving people”. The new part of the command was – as I have loved you. Jesus was commanding a new pattern of love and a new power to love. Elena unpacks this for us in todays message.

What does it mean to be fully devoted to Jesus? The early church in Acts 2 demonstrated a deep commitment to the Apostles' teaching, fellowship, breaking of bread, prayer and the word. As Christians, it is important that we cultivate the same ongoing, single-minded pursuit of God through His Word. We are invited to anchor our lives in the transformative power of God's Word. As we hunger for Him, we are changed from the inside out, reflecting Jesus to the world around us.If you need prayer, we're here for you.

HELLO MY SMILIES! In this episode, I'm diving deep into a concept that has completely shifted the way I manifest ~ the Universe doesn't respond to how hard you hustle ~ it responds to your energy.We're exploring the powerful difference between aligned energy and forceful effort, and why slowing down, softening, and tuning in might actually move you forward faster than pushing ever could.

On Easter Sunday, we remember the moment that changed history—and changes our lives today. In this message, Jason Elsmore shares how the resurrection of Jesus speaks directly into the brokenness we see in the world and feel in our own lives. We're reminded that Jesus didn't just come to improve our lives—He came to make us new. If your heart is tired, your soul is weary, or your relationship with God feels distant, this message is an invitation to hope, healing, and renewal through Jesus.If you need prayer, we're here for you.

What if Jesus said something so shocking, it challenged everything you thought about following Him? He did. On the night before His death, Jesus told His disciples, “It's better that I go.” Better? What could be better than walking with the Son of God? In this message, Jason and Susan Elsmore unpack why Jesus said that—and what it means for us today. The truth is, God hasn't left us alone. He's given us His Spirit. The Holy Spirit is our Helper, our Power, our Guide, and our Peace. And the same Spirit who raised Jesus from the dead lives in you. Whether you feel close to God or far from Him, this message will inspire you to stop striving and start depending. Because with the Holy Spirit, you're never alone—and you're never powerless.If you need prayer, we're here for you.

“Together we can build a thriving future for the building industry globally.” Duayne Pearce. I was raised on the smell of sawdust and paint fumes, spending countless hours on building worksites around South East Queensland, with my idol and best mate, my tradie Dad. I fully immersed myself in an industry that I would ultimately find irresistible. It was obvious from the get-go that an ever-present sense of tension between workers, bosses and customers was the way business was done. But more apparent was that money always seemed to be a problem. Nevertheless, leaving school early I jumped in with both feet. I worked hard, became a licensed builder and carpenter, and then reached the dizzying heights of what would appear on the outside to be an incredible success. The cars, the boats, the properties and even the accolades were afforded by our skyrocketing business turnover, but it was all a thin veneer. Underneath, my business was in danger of going bust and I was heading down that familiar rabbit hole of chronic stress, tension and inevitable outcomes of anxiety and depression. Like many contractors before me, I was about to lose everything. My rock bottom thankfully came with a silver lining and the wherewithal to reach out to my wife, friends and my team to try and sort things out. We worked together and took small steps to turn things around but I knew that I needed more help with structure and process. Business Coaches were part of the solution, but my ah-ha moment was realising none of the ones I had engaged understood or had experience in the building industry. That was my light-bulb moment. I'd found my niche and the journey to re-invent and elevate the industry that has always been so important to me, began. Now, with many collaborators and several innovations under my belt, it's my vision to level up the building industry. I'm on a mission to help others who are just like I was, struggling to make a living, working in one of the most important industries in the country. Informing, guiding, training and speaking are the tools of my trade that push for a revolution in the way residential builders and contractors approach their business to thrive. In doing so, we make vital inroads on how this multi-billion dollar industry is perceived positively by homeowner clients, the community and importantly the next generation of contractors choosing it as their own rewarding career.

Hello my Smilie's, I want this episode to inspire you to do a little ritual for yourself, made up of whatever spiritual/self development practices are right for you. On March 20, which happened to be the Equinox in the Astrological world, I did the most healing, magical ritual and in this episode I share with you exactly what I did. I was so excited because this ritual was not only healing for me, it brought so much clarity, peace and enlightenment, and it reminded me of the power that we humans hold! We are constantly looking elsewhere, outside of ourselves for answers, guidance and direction ~ but the answers are already within you. And you have access to them now. One thing I did which I think is really important - is I released the pressure. I was not doing this ritual with a goal of feeling completely healed, I wasn't aiming for closure, or perfection, I was just doing it to experience and allow myself some ‘spiritual' me time. It's amazing what can happen when you release the pressure.In this episode I share some powerful techniques and exercises that you can do yourself the next time you sit down to meditate, journal and do your oracle card readings. JUST WAIT until you hear about the oracle cards I pulled, and how my yearly spread for the months Jan, Feb and March have aligned so ridiculously well. I dug deep in this episode, reading out some personal segments in my journal. I felt pulled to do this, so you could see just how powerful journaling can be. To be completely honest, I was dreading doing this ritual! I was scared of disappointing myself, I was afraid of reliving parts of my life that were so life changing and I didn't want to feel uncomfortable. But wow, when you allow yourself the space and time to this, the universe and your angels finally have a chance to connect with you ~ and what comes with that connection, is everything!Buy Your Mindful Journal Here!

HELLO MY SMILIES! In this episode, we dive deep into The Art of Allowing ~ the powerful practice of surrendering, letting go of control, and getting out of our own way. When we learn to truly allow, we become magnets for miracles, effortlessly attracting what is meant for us.In this ep, I also explore the concept of expanding time. Lately, I've been feeling like time is moving too fast, and I've become conscious of my desire to slow it down. But here's the magic ~ when we allow ourselves space and time to simply be, that's when the signs, synchronicities, and coincidences appear to guide us forward.By shifting our perception of time and releasing the limiting belief of “I don't have enough time,” we not only create more mental space but also physical space ~ allowing room for the universe to bring us new opportunities, people, and experiences.So, ask yourself: Are you truly moving forward, or just moving?I also touch on the importance of resting before you actually need it. Rest isn't just a reward for hard work—it's a prerequisite for alignment.I close the episode with a few powerful questions for reflection:✨ Am I taking action from a place of trust, or from the fear of not having enough?✨ Who am I without the next goal?✨ What do I need to release to allow the next level to come to me with ease?✨ Where can I do less and receive more?I'm excited for you to hear how surrendering, shifting our perspective on time, and allowing ourselves to rest can open the door to more ease, flow, and abundance in our lives.Don't forget to follow, leave a review or rate if you love my podcast!
