Podcasts about spiritual coaching

Spiritual abuse doesn't begin with one bad person. It grows through a culture of approval, secrecy, fear, and loyalty that slowly teaches people to stay quiet, play along, and mistake control for faithfulness. Mike Erre and Tim Stafford break down the eight phases of a power-through-fear church and contrast them with the kind of community Jesus actually builds - a pocket of tov, where goodness, wholeness, and courage can exist without hype or performance.If you'd like to support the work at VOXOLOGY, and join us next month for the book club, you can join here: https://www.patreon.com/c/voxology/postsIf you're interested in Spiritual Coaching, you can email tim@voxpodcast.comTimestamps00:00 - Opening banter, kids back in school, and community updates02:01 - Spiritual coaching and the Patreon book club announcement03:49 - Frustration with corruption, outrage fatigue, and local engagement09:31 - Refugees in Tennessee and creating pockets of hope12:08 - A listener asks if introversion is sinful14:54 - Quiet time as formation for community, not a spiritual end point17:24 - Why introverts can still be harmed by solitude without structure18:38 - Why spiritual disciplines need purpose, framework, and discernment21:50 - Spiritual abuse is a culture, not just a bad person24:48 - Step one: power concentrated in one person26:14 - Insider approval, status enhancement, and filtered influence28:09 - Outsiders, status degradation, and fear of disapproval30:04 - Secrecy, image management, and what happens behind the wall32:59 - Banishment, loyalty tests, and being expelled from the circle34:29 - How church culture also shapes who gets seen as a leader36:34 - Compassion and empathy as the first marks of a healthy culture38:30 - Grace, failure tolerance, and hierarchy as responsibility41:25 - A bottom-shaped triangle: leadership exists for the community45:17 - Putting people ahead of the institution47:39 - Truth telling, confession, and why churches avoid self-exposure50:25 - Justice over loyalty culture and the misuse of Matthew 1852:26 - Power dispersed, not accumulated54:25 - Service over celebrity and power-under leadership56:18 - Overperforming, underperforming, and leaders inserting themselves between God and people58:08 - What heroes a culture celebrates and why ordinary faithfulness matters61:27 - How do you build a healthy church in a hype-driven world?62:55 - Practices of resistance: no hype language, no sermon-series hype machine65:42 - The woman caught in adultery as a model of calm, teaching, and restoration69:03 - Christ-likeness over leadership culture and the CEO model of church72:12 - Richard Foster's marks of spiritual power: love, humility, self-limitation, joy, vulnerability, submission, freedom73:11 - Mike's daughter testifies in a stalking case and the cost of being believed77:31 - Why he stays in an organized church and what a healthy community can look like80:33 - Why people won't stay just for hype, and the need for pockets of tove81:53 - Building boring, sustainable, life-giving communityAs always, we encourage and would love discussion as we pursue.

I've been thinking a lot about how we choose to see and interact with the people in our lives. Especially the ones we love the most.What if we could begin to see them not just as their choices, their behaviors, their wounds, or the stories we've created about them, but as souls having their own human experience?What happens when we stop trying to fix people?What happens when we release the need for them to be different so that we can be okay?And what happens when we remember that their soul journey is theirs, just as ours is ours?This is a deeper conversation about the spiritual side of Recover Your Soul, about remembering our wholeness, releasing judgment, and beginning to see the people around us in a different way.I'm sharing some of what I've been learning and experiencing, including some ideas about souls, our human experience, and why I believe the people who challenge us can sometimes be some of our greatest teachers.As always, take what you need and leave the rest.I'm just sharing what I'm discovering on my own journey, and I hope something in this conversation opens a new way of seeing for you too.

If you're a parent, you probably know this feeling.No matter how old our children are, we never stop wanting to protect them. We want to guide them, encourage them, and help them avoid some of the heartache we experienced ourselves.I've been thinking about that a lot lately.As my own boys have grown into adulthood, I've realized that one of the greatest invitations of this stage of parenting isn't learning how to love them more. It's learning how to trust their journey while continuing to love them deeply.For a long time, I believed that if one of my children was struggling, it was my job to figure out how to make it better. I thought worrying meant I was being a good mom. I thought helping meant offering advice, solving problems, and trying to keep them from making mistakes or being uncomfortable.But my own healing has gently shown me something different.What if our adult children aren't ours to fix, change or even to tell them what to do?What if they're here to have their own unique human experience, learning through both their joys and their challenges on their soul journey?What if loving them doesn't mean keeping them from discomfort, but trusting that even the difficult parts of their journey have purpose too. That doesn't mean we stop caring. It doesn't mean we stop loving or even supporting in a healthy way.It simply means we begin releasing the belief that their happiness determines our own.This conversation isn't about becoming a perfect parent. I certainly haven't been one. It's about exploring another way of seeing.One that has brought so much more peace into my own heart.If you've been lying awake worrying about your adult children, wishing you could make different choices for them, or wondering how to love them without losing yourself, I hope you'll find something in this conversation that may shift how you are seeing the situation and the people in your life- and in the end you find a little peace. In This EpisodeWhy worrying can quietly become another form of trying to controlSeeing your adult children through love instead of fearHow our own discomfort often fuels our desire to fix someone else's lifeWhy acceptance becomes a path to peaceTrusting your adult children's soul journey while continuing to love them deeply with healthy detachmentReleasing the belief that someone else's happiness determines your ownReturning your attention to your own healing and spiritual awakeningA Few Questions to Sit WithWhere am I carrying responsibility that isn't mine?What fears come up when I imagine letting go of control?Can I love someone deeply without trying to change them?What might become possible if I trusted both my journey and theirs?Continue Your Soul Recovery Journey

Have you ever noticed that it's easier to give love than to receive it?As recovering people pleasers and codependents, many of us learned to care for everyone else first. We became experts at giving our time, our energy, our love, and our attention, but when it comes to receiving those same gifts, we often hesitate.Why?In this episode, I share a very personal story about buying a new car and how something that seemed so ordinary uncovered a much deeper invitation to healing. What surfaced wasn't really about the car at all. It was about an old belief that had quietly followed me through much of my life—that other people deserved more than I did.As I became curious about those feelings, I realized that learning to receive has been one of the greatest spiritual lessons of my own Soul Recovery journey.Healing isn't about getting more.It's about releasing the beliefs, patterns, and stories that tell us we aren't enough.When we begin to receive the same love, compassion, and kindness that we so freely offer everyone else, we open ourselves to a life rooted in abundance instead of lack, trust instead of fear, and wholeness instead of striving.If you've ever struggled to believe you deserve love, support, joy, or simply something beautiful for yourself, I hope this conversation reminds you that you have never needed to earn your worth.You already are enough.A New Weekly RhythmBeginning July 2026, you'll receive a new episode every Monday between the 2 Recover Your Soul Podcasts.One week you'll hear a full Recover Your Soul Podcast episode, and the next week you'll receive a Recover Your Soul Bonus Podcast, where I share spiritual tools, practices, guided meditations, and inspiring interviews to support you on your healing journey.Thank you for being part of this beautiful community.

Living in Alignment: How to Trust Yourself When Change Feels UncomfortableLiving in alignment isn't about having all the answers. It's about learning to trust the quiet inner knowing that calls you toward a new way of being, even when change feels uncomfortable.In this episode, I share a personal example of what it means to live Step 7 of the Recover Your Soul process: aligning your thoughts, words, and actions with the person you are becoming instead of the fears, expectations, and old patterns you've carried for so long.As we heal, there comes a time when we realize that the old ways of doing things no longer fit who we are becoming. Making a different choice can bring up fear, uncertainty, and even the worry of disappointing others. But healing invites us to trust ourselves, listen to our inner guidance, and take the next right step—even when it feels uncomfortable.I also share an exciting new chapter for the Recover Your Soul podcasts.Beginning now, you'll receive a new Recover Your Soul episode every Monday, alternating between the main Recover Your Soul Podcast and the Recover Your Soul Bonus Podcast. This new rhythm will allow me to be even more present with our community through coaching, the 9-Step Self Study Collective, retreats, and the many ways we continue to walk this healing journey together.The next Main Recover Your Soul Podcast will be released on July 20.In the meantime, I hope you'll lean on the incredible library we've created together. Between the two podcasts, there are nearly 600 episodes covering everything from codependency, boundaries, anxiety, depression, adult children, addiction, forgiveness, people pleasing, grief, and spiritual awakening. Use the search bar on your favorite podcast app or at recoveryoursoul.net and let the library meet you exactly where you are. My hope is that you'll always find an episode that reminds you that you're not alone.If you'd like to continue the journey between Main Podcast episodes, the Recover Your Soul Bonus Podcast is released every other Monday and includes deeper conversations, guided meditations, spiritual book studies, reflections on Al-Anon through the lens of the Recover Your Soul process, inspiring interviews, and our new Recover Your Soul Practices series—grounded spiritual tools and practices for everyday life.You can listen to the Bonus Podcast every other Monday: ✨ On Apple Podcasts with a subscription for $4.99/month ✨ On Patreon as a Free Member, where new episodes are available for two weeks, or as a supporting member at $5, $15, or $25/month, with full access to the complete Bonus Podcast library and additional community offerings.Thank you for being part of this community. Whether you've been listening since 2020 or you've just found the podcast, I am so grateful you're here. Thank you for trusting me to walk beside you.

Join the 9-Step Recover Your Soul CollectiveEvery once in a while, I revisit a Bonus Podcast episode that feels especially relevant to where we are on our soul journey, and this is one of those conversations.A longtime listener recently reached out to tell me this was one of the most impactful episodes I've shared. As I listened to it again, I realized how beautifully it connects with so many of the conversations we've been having lately about authenticity, healthy boundaries, self-awareness, and choosing peace over old protective patterns.One of the greatest gifts of healing is learning to be authentic. To be vulnerable. To speak our truth.But authenticity doesn't mean sharing everything with everyone.There is a profound difference between processing and sharing, and understanding that difference can transform our relationships, our healing, and the way we connect with others.In this deeply personal episode, I share an experience where I found myself processing a painful story in a space that wasn't meant to hold that level of healing work. What felt embarrassing and uncomfortable at the time became a powerful gift on my own Soul Recovery journey.I realized that sometimes our deepest healing doesn't happen by telling our story over and over. Sometimes it happens by finding the right container to process it, allowing ourselves to move through it with compassion, fully release it, and then sharing the wisdom that remains.Healthy boundaries aren't only about saying "no."They're also about honoring ourselves enough to know what belongs in a safe healing space and what belongs in everyday conversation.As we recover our souls, we begin to recognize that authenticity and discernment can exist together. We don't have to choose between being real and protecting our peace. We can honor both.In This Episode:

Letting Go of Being Right: How to Take Your Power Back and Choose Inner PeaceAs recovering people pleasers and codependents, many of us learned that if we could just explain ourselves better, convince someone of our point of view, or get them to see things our way, everything would finally feel okay.The problem is that living this way keeps us on an emotional battlefield.We become exhausted trying to manage, control, fix, defend, and prove. We fight for approval. We fight to be understood. We fight to be right. And underneath all of that fighting is often something much more tender: a desire to feel safe, valued, heard, and enough.In this episode, I share a very personal story from my own marriage that reminded me how quickly old patterns can surface, even after years of healing. What started as an innocent comment from my husband unexpectedly activated a deep fear inside me, creating an opportunity to witness an old protective system that still occasionally shows up.The beautiful thing about this work is that awareness changes everything.As we heal, we begin to recognize that letting go of being right does not mean giving up our voice. It doesn't mean abandoning our needs, our boundaries, or our truth. Instead, it means releasing the belief that our peace depends on someone else agreeing with us.When we stop fighting every battle, we discover something powerful: we can stand in our truth without needing to control anyone else's.When we release the need to prove, convince, defend, and manage, we create space for something much deeper: compassion, connection, and inner freedom.Your voice matters.Your feelings matter.Your perspective matters.And you don't need anyone else's permission for that to be true.Until next time, namaste.
