I'm announcing CENTERED—my new spiritual wellness app launching April 2026. This is 10 years in the making. And it feels like holding onto a rocket right now. Think Spotify for spiritual wellness. A place to design your day based on devotion. Wake up to the energetics of the day. Build playlists with prayers, mantras, meditations—all the things. The existing wellness apps are for coping and calming down. You press play. You stay passive. Spiritually neutral. But CENTERED is built for depth, not dopamine. I'm partnering with Aligned, a Silicon Valley software company led by an early Spotify exec. Launching April 17th with my new audiobook, Bless & Release. Here's what shocked me: Only 1.1% of global venture capital goes to female-led startups. I'm changing that. CENTERED is open to investment from $100 to $1.5 million. The goal? A women-majority investor base. We're putting the feminine in fem tech. Listen in for all the details. With Love, Danielle As mentioned in this episode: Learn more about investing in the CENTERED App at centeredapp.com. We'll send you the pitch deck, and access to our WeFunder campaign where you can become a founding investor with as little as $100. Pre-order my new audiobook and I'll send you BTS content and early access to chapters.

Something you might notice about Boston musician Naomi Westwater is that they have both sides of the brain on lock. They are very good at community organizing, grant applying, advocating, and other "left-brained" activities. However, they are also a creative, deeply spiritual, open-hearted person, traits typically associated with the right brain. That's not always something that goes hand-in-hand, but it is a beautiful thing when it does! Westwater, who identifies as queer and Black-multiracial, grew up on Cape Cod in Massachusetts, where they never felt like they fit in. Thanks to their parents, there was a lot of music being played: reggae, jazz, funk, classic rock and '70s feminist folk. There was always a deep connection with nature, which plays into their spiritual practice and their songwriting, two areas they previously kept separate.On their new album, 'Cycle & Change,' Naomi made an effort to fully embrace her identity as a songwriter and a witch. She shares, “Each song ties back to its seasonal context, weaving a story that spans spring's hopeful beginnings, summer's vibrancy, autumn's introspection, and winter's quietude…” Right in the final stretch of preparing to release the album, all these very hard things happened: the sudden loss of Naomi's father; they went through a divorce; and they relocated. It was as if, with the album, they had created the blueprint for remaining grounded during these challenging life changes. We get into all of this on Basic Folk, as well as navigating self-advocacy while struggling to get their endometriosis and adenomyosis diagnosed and treated and the impact their father's death had on their creativity.Follow Basic Folk on social media: https://basicfolk.bio.link/Sign up for Basic Folk's newsletter: https://bit.ly/basicfolknewsHelp produce Basic Folk by contributing: https://basicfolk.com/donate/Interested in sponsoring us?

Growing up, one of my favorite baseball players was Steve Avery, a dominant pitcher for the Atlanta Braves. Before injuries changed his career, he was electric—one of the best on the mound. Recently, watching old clips of his playing days stirred a deeper thought in me.All of us, at some point, have been hurt. Wounded. Spiritually injured. And the dangerous story we tell ourselves is this: I used to be good before I got hurt. This episode is a reminder not to live in that sentence. You are not defined by the injury. You are not finished because you fell. Healing is possible. Growth is still ahead. Get back up. Recover. And don't let it be said that the best of you only existed before the pain.

Read OnlineThere was a woman afflicted with hemorrhages for twelve years. She had suffered greatly at the hands of many doctors and had spent all that she had. Yet she was not helped but only grew worse. She had heard about Jesus and came up behind him in the crowd and touched his cloak. She said, “If I but touch his clothes, I shall be cured.” Immediately her flow of blood dried up. Mark 5:25–29According to Jewish law, the condition from which this woman suffered rendered her ritually unclean, which excluded her from both religious and social life, causing her to endure not only physical suffering but also psychological and emotional isolation (cf. Leviticus 15:25–27). This isolation, while difficult, reflected the Mosaic Law's intent to teach Israel about the holiness of God and the need for purification to approach Him.Her condition symbolically reflects the spiritual affliction of sin—an incurable state that separates humanity from God and others. By permitting her suffering, God prepared the way for His glory to be revealed through her healing. Her humble yet bold act of faith—reaching out to touch the cloak of Christ—teaches us to trust in God's power and mercy. Her suffering was permitted, not as punishment, but as an opportunity for God to manifest His saving power. Through her faith, she not only received physical healing, but also restoration to her community and a share in God's glory.This Gospel invites us to see ourselves in this woman. Spiritually speaking, her condition mirrors our state when burdened by sin, which causes an interior isolation and separates us from God's family. Sin ultimately leaves us dissatisfied and alienated. Like the woman's healing, our restoration requires a humble act of faith, reaching out to Christ in the sacraments, where His grace heals and restores us.Beyond sin, we all face various afflictions—physical, emotional, or relational—that can weigh us down. In these moments, it is natural to seek immediate relief. Yet this Gospel reminds us that God's plan for our lives often includes permitting suffering for a time to bring about a greater good. The woman's twelve years of affliction were not in vain; they became the means through which God revealed His glory and brought her into deeper communion with Him. Similarly, our sufferings—whether caused by sin, physical ailments, or rejection—are opportunities for God to manifest His saving power, if we approach Him with trust and humility.Believing these truths can indeed be difficult, especially when we are in the midst of suffering. In such moments, we must rely on the gift of supernatural hope, which is borne of grace and sustains us when human strength falters. Hope is rooted in the certitude of faith, and faith opens our hearts to truths that transcend the limitations of human reason (cf. Hebrews 11:1). This humble woman exemplifies both faith and hope in the face of suffering. Her unwavering belief in Jesus' power to heal not only inspired her to hope but also moved her to act. Her hope compelled her to reach out and touch His garment, trusting that even the slightest connection to Christ could bring her healing. By this simple yet profound act of faith, she received far more than physical healing—she encountered the transformative power of God's mercy and love, which restored her fully and brought her into deeper communion with Him. Reflect today on the example of this holy and humble woman. Her act of faith inspires us to approach Christ with humble confidence, especially in moments of suffering and need. Like her, we are called to humble ourselves, reach out to Jesus in prayer, and trust in His power to spiritually heal and restore. In the sacraments, particularly Reconciliation and the Eucharist, we touch the hem of Christ's garment and encounter the transformative power of His mercy. Pray for the grace to trust in God's providence, knowing that He lovingly permits even our trials to lead us to deeper communion with Him and to reveal His glory in our lives. My merciful Lord, You allow me to endure the effects of sin and the frailty of my fallen human nature, not as punishment, but as an invitation to deepen my faith and hope in You. In moments of affliction, grant me the grace to turn to You with trust, believing in Your power to transform all things into good and to reveal Your eternal glory. Jesus, I trust in You.Image via picrylSource: Free RSS feed from catholic-daily-reflections.com — Copyright © 2026 My Catholic Life! Inc. All rights reserved.

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20260129dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion The darkness is passing and the true light is already shining. Anyone who claims to be in the light but hates a brother or sister is still in the darkness. Anyone who loves their brother and sister lives in the light. 1 John 2:8-10 Walking in the Light Anyone who has spent too long cooped up in one place knows what cabin fever feels like. At first, it’s comfortable, safe, familiar, and predictable. But slowly, irritation creeps in. Small things start to bother us. Our patience shortens. Our perspective narrows. The walls begin to feel closer. What once felt like shelter starts to feel like confinement. Spiritually, cabin fever can happen, too. When people remain inward-focused and demonstrate by their attitudes and actions that they love themselves more than others, darkness closes in. Our hearts become disconnected from loving relationships with God and with others. That is what the apostle John addresses in our Bible reading when he says, “Anyone who claims to be in the light but hates a brother or sister is still in the darkness.” The best way to overcome cabin fever is to step out of your place of confinement, breathe in the fresh air again, and, best of all, go where the sun is shining. John reminds us that the true light is already shining. The Son of God, Jesus Christ, continues to shine the light of God’s mercy and forgiveness into our darkened hearts. The good news that Jesus died for our sins and rose from the dead in victory, enlightens our hearts to believe that God's love for us will overcome the darkness of evil. In the end, spiritual cabin fever fades when we remember that life in Christ was never meant to be lived in isolation or fear. His love replaces our impatience with peace. His Word and promise of life with him forever, replaces our weariness with renewed purpose—to love one another as Christ loved us. Anyone who loves their brother and sister lives in the light. Where Christ-like love is practiced, the darkness lifts, the cabin fever fades, and life opens up again. Prayer: Gracious Savior, you are the true Light shining in the darkness. Drive hatred and bitterness from my heart. Fill me with your mercy so that my life reflects your love to others. Amen. Daily Devotions is brought to you by WELS.

Serious question. Why does my oven have a lasagna button? Are people out here crushing lasagna at such a high frequency that it earned its own dedicated setting? And more importantly… am I not eating enough lasagna?Then it hits me. I am officially out of passwords. Mentally. Spiritually. Emotionally. It's 2026 and we are still typing characters into tiny boxes like it's 2009. How is this still the system and why has no one saved us yet?And just when you think life couldn't get more dangerous, winter rolls around and suddenly we are propping open kitchen cabinets so pipes don't freeze. All good until you wake up half asleep at 3am, go to the bathroom, and absolutely wreck your chin on an open cabinet door.This episode is a rapid-fire rant about modern inconveniences, outdated systems, and the oddly specific things no one warned us about. Come for the lasagna button confusion. Stay for the password burnout and mild household injuries.

It is not the will of God that we be alone or that we go through life isolated from others. He has created the church to be our spiritual family. It's here that we find fellowship, encouragement, support, and accountability. It's also here that we are able to offer these same gifts to others.Main Points:1. Sometimes the reason for such isolation is the pain we have experienced in the church. Maybe we felt ignored, neglected, or forgotten. Perhaps someone made a mistake and said something that was hurtful. Rather than experience this pain again, we put up barriers and choose to not engage with others.2. But I want you to see this is exactly what Satan wants. He wants you to be isolated from others because if you do, you'll also miss the blessings that come from being in community with others. You'll miss the encouragement and the support. You'll miss the fulfillment that comes with deep friendships. Others will miss the investment you could have made in their lives.3. If you want to be blessed you have to step out of your comfort zone. To experience the richness of friendship and support, you have to show up. To be a blessing to others you have to engage, take initiative, and be committed.Today's Scripture Verses:Genesis 2:18 - “The Lord God said, “It is not good that man should be alone…”John 8:44 - “…for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies.”Philippians 2:4 -  “Look out for one another's interests not just your own.”Quick Links:Donate to support this podcastLeave a review on Apple PodcastsGet a copy of The 5 Minute Discipleship JournalConnect on SocialJoin The 5 Minute Discipleship Facebook Group

In this podcast, Greg welcomes back Yosi Amram, PhD, a licensed clinical psychologist and CEO leadership coach whose background spans from an Israeli military sergeant major to an MIT and Harvard-educated tech CEO. His life took a radical, life-altering turn on a massage table when, after taking his first company public, he experienced a spontaneous spiritual awakening that "blew a fuze" in his mind. This traumatic catalyst—which led to him being pushed out of his own organization—inspired Yosi to pioneer research into Spiritual Intelligence (SI). He views SI as the critical missing piece for leaders who have achieved outward success but still face soaring rates of anxiety and polarization. Yosi's approach isn't about escaping to a cave in India; it is a "middle way" where the divine meets the boardroom to reveal the spiritual sparks in everything we do. He breaks down his award-winning framework of seven dimensions—including Grace, Truth, and Wisdom—to show how "ego-looseness" and intuitive leadership are not just feel-good concepts, but powerful drivers of massive financial performance and collective well-being.

What if the deepest wound you carry isn't about what happened to you—but about whether you ever felt truly held by life itself? In this powerful and intimate conversation, JJ is joined by a longtime soul sister, healer, and registered nurse who shares a deeply transformative experience that healed a lifelong sense of abandonment—not just from people, but from God, Source, and existence itself. After more than 25 years of personal growth, spiritual practice, and emotional work, she realized there was still an existential fracture beneath it all: a quiet belief that life was not fully safe, that love could be given endlessly but not fully received, and that stepping into her full calling might come at a devastating cost. What unfolded during a sacred, carefully held journey became a profound reclamation of safety, trust, and belonging—at the nervous-system and soul level. This episode is not about escapism or quick fixes. It's about: ·         How early experiences can fracture our sense of safety with life itself ·         Why control often masks a fear of annihilation or abandonment ·         What true surrender actually feels like in the body ·         Healing the relationship with Source beyond religion or belief systems ·         Learning to receive love after a lifetime of giving ·         Releasing the fear that being fully seen could destroy you ·         Embodiment, integration, and lasting nervous-system change JJ also speaks to the importance of integrity, preparation, emotional readiness, and sacred containment—emphasizing that this kind of work is not for everyone, not always, and never casual. At its core, this is a conversation about remembering who you are, restoring trust in life, and discovering that you were never alone—not for a single breath. If you've ever felt: ·         Like you don't fully belong here ·         Afraid to take up space or be fully visible ·         Deeply loving but unable to receive ·         Spiritually devoted yet quietly disconnected ·         Called to something more but scared of the cost This episode may speak directly to your heart. This is not an escape from life.It's an invitation into the truth of who you really are. http://Karinrose.love

What if the deepest wound you carry isn't about what happened to you—but about whether you ever felt truly held by life itself? In this powerful and intimate conversation, JJ is joined by a longtime soul sister, healer, and registered nurse who shares a deeply transformative experience that healed a lifelong sense of abandonment—not just from people, but from God, Source, and existence itself. After more than 25 years of personal growth, spiritual practice, and emotional work, she realized there was still an existential fracture beneath it all: a quiet belief that life was not fully safe, that love could be given endlessly but not fully received, and that stepping into her full calling might come at a devastating cost. What unfolded during a sacred, carefully held journey became a profound reclamation of safety, trust, and belonging—at the nervous-system and soul level. This episode is not about escapism or quick fixes. It's about: ·         How early experiences can fracture our sense of safety with life itself ·         Why control often masks a fear of annihilation or abandonment ·         What true surrender actually feels like in the body ·         Healing the relationship with Source beyond religion or belief systems ·         Learning to receive love after a lifetime of giving ·         Releasing the fear that being fully seen could destroy you ·         Embodiment, integration, and lasting nervous-system change JJ also speaks to the importance of integrity, preparation, emotional readiness, and sacred containment—emphasizing that this kind of work is not for everyone, not always, and never casual.

Start Serious! Stay Hungry! Fight Spiritually!  Finish Strong!  Fighting spiritually is fighting from victory, not fighting for victory. 10 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11 Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 13 Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand.14 Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, 15 and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. 16 In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17 Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit,which is the word of God. Ephesians 6:10-17 Helmet of Salvation.  The Sword of The Spirit. (The Spoken Word) 

Most of us treat our spiritual walk like a solo project, believing we can reach our full potential through personal study or by watching a service from a distance. We try to handle our struggles in private, only to find ourselves stuck in a cycle of resetting the same old habits without ever addressing the root cause. But real growth isn't designed to happen in isolation; it requires a specific environment to actually take root. True spiritual maturity is a team sport, not a solo pursuit. There are blind spots in our character, our marriages, and our careers that we simply cannot see or fix on our own. We need a biblical community that loves us enough to call us up to a higher standard and carry us through the heavy seasons when we feel overwhelmed. You might be just one honest, biblical relationship away from the breakthrough you've been praying for. Community isn't just an optional resource or a social club; it is the fundamental context where our faith becomes practical. God designed us to be sharpened by others so that we don't have to drown in our own secrets. It's time to stop trying to "one another" without others and invite the right people into your journey. Step out of isolation and let the real work of growth begin within the body of Christ. At 12Stone Church, learn how to Know God, Find Freedom, Discover Purpose and Make a Difference.

1 Corinthians 10:13 - No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it.

This is a Q&A session from the Soul Searchers Retreat. Acharya das delivers a comprehensive discussion on spiritual life versus material life, emphasizing the fundamental distinction between material consciousness (identifying with the physical body) and spiritual consciousness (recognizing oneself as an eternal spiritual being). He explains that material life is founded on the belief that "I am material," while spirituality recognizes "I'm an eternal spiritual being." A wide range of topics were addressed (as you can see from the chapters listed below) including the concept of karma yoga which was introduced as a process of integrating life activities with spiritual practice by offering all actions as service to a higher spiritual reality. **************************************CHAPTERS‎ 00:00 Distinguishing Material and Spiritual Life02:39 The Concept of Karma Yoga 04:09 The Bhagavad Gita: Arjuna's Dilemma‎05:42 Arjuna's Breakdown and Krishna's Response08:24 Krishna's Teaching on Duty and Nature09:46 The Radical Teaching of Spiritual Action11:23 The Lesson of Utilizing Our Tools12:42 The Fundamental Shift in Consciousness14:06 Two Schools of Thought: Traditional vs. Advaita15:43 Critique of the "I Am God" Philosophy17:05 Qualitative Oneness vs. Quantitative Difference18:31 The Complete Whole Principle21:40 The Appeal of False God-Realization22:58 Three Aspects of Self-Realization23:56 The Inevitable Fall from Impersonal Realization25:37 Three Features of the Absolute Truth27:30 The Nature of Transcendental Connection29:40 Comparing Levels of Transcendental Happiness31:27 Rejection of Blind Faith32:42 The Problem of Consciousness Filters33:26 Indescribable Spiritual Delights‎34:52 The Importance of Questioning35:46 Proper vs. Improper Questioning37:07 The Problem of False Self-Importance39:32 Three Authorities in Vedic System41:00 Internal Spiritual Guidance‎43:17 Alignment of Spiritual Authorities45:13 Universal Accessibility of Spiritual Realization46:19 Divine Assistance for Sincere Seekers48:05 Recognition of Spiritual Truth49:30 Encouragement and Final Thoughts50:35 Kirtan Meditation**************************************

Dave Wiedes, founder of ServingLeaders Ministries, is an internationally renown expert in leadership and relational mediation. Dave asserts that spiritual maturity and emotional maturity are inextricably linked, and that adeptness in both categories is necessary to steward both personal relationships and our communities as a whole. Dave's theory involves the idea that we all have a "ruling passion" that tends to undermine God's Lordship in our life, and we must both identify and subvert that ruling passion with the love of God with all our mind, heart, body and soul. Learn more about Dave's ministry at his website https://www.davewiedis.com/Order his renown book, "The Spiritually Healthy Leader", here.SUPPORT His Heartbeat through Crown of Beauty Internationalhttps://www.crownofbeautyinternational.com/donateCONNECT with His Heartbeat and Crown of Beauty InternationalWebsite// Facebook//InstagramEmail: crownofbeautyinternational@gmail.comConnect with Sue Corl's Instagram//Facebook// WebsitePurchase Sue's Transformational Bible Studies and Devotionals on Amazon!Sue Corl's best-selling books: Crown of Beauty Bible Study, Broken But UndefeatedCrown of Beauty International: EMPOWERING WOMEN AROUND THE WORLD WITH GOD'S TRUTH!

Acharya das delivers a comprehensive talk on spiritual life and self-evaluation from the perspective of ancient Vedic traditions and yoga systems.This is the first of 2 talks at the annual New Year's Soul Searchers Retreat in New Zealand. Acharya das explores a custom many people adopt around the idea of wanting to do better in the new year, often by making New Year's resolutions. Doing better begins with an examination of how we did the previous year and where to from here. And specifically, how we did spiritually and how to live a more spiritually oriented life.But to ask that question, we need a very clear idea of what ‘spiritual' means. The talk explores this in a very practical manner.

Have you ever been told (or told yourself) that if you truly trusted God, fear wouldn't keep showing up? That peace would come more naturally, your thoughts would settle faster, and your body wouldn't feel so tense all the time? But instead, you feel worn down. Mentally alert but physically tired. Spiritually anchored, yet internally unsettled. And when fear surfaces, it doesn't feel like rebellion; it feels like your system is overwhelmed. What if that fear isn't evidence of weak faith, but a signal from a body that has learned to stay protective to survive?Rooting for you,JessicaNext steps:Learn more about working with me 1:1 as your mental health coach: https://www.jessicahottle.com/mental-health-coachingOr book your free 20-minute consultation here!Get my self-paced course, Untangle Your Thoughts program: https://www.jessicahottle.com/healEmail me at >> jessica@jessicahottle.comThe information shared in this podcast is for educational and informational purposes only and is not intended as medical or clinical advice.

We tend to invest a lot of money and time into maintaining our physical, even emotional health, which is important. But often we tend to invest little when it comes to our spiritual health. I'm convinced that there are several reasons why this is the case, but perhaps the greatest reason is because we misunderstand how we become spiritually healthy. 

2026 is off to a pretty rough start, so Kelley Fox and Rev. Terry Williams have a spirituality-rich episode to help you catch a breath, take stock, and get some perspective on the year to come. Using tarot and oracle readings as a spiritual assessment tool, Kelley and Terry reflect on what current political, social, and religious environments can teach us about the work of reproductive health, rights and justice.

In this podcast, host Greg Voisen sits down with seasoned executive coach and author Kris Girrell to peel back the layers of a phenomenon sweeping through modern society: the rise of the "spiritual but not religious." If you have ever felt like you've outgrown the rigid pews of traditional doctrine or felt a "dark night of the soul" burning away your old certainties, this conversation is your roadmap. Kris discusses his provocative book, Spiritually Homeless, exploring why so many people are jettisoning inherited beliefs to find a more authentic, direct connection with the divine. Are you truly letting go, or just checking out? How do you distinguish between the ego's chatter and the soul's whisper? Greg and Kris dive deep into the "unselfing" process, the necessity of embracing mystery over certainty, and how to find a new kind of community when you no longer fit in the old one. This episode isn't just about leaving a building; it's about arriving at your true self. What You Will Learn By tuning into this episode, listeners will gain insights into: - The Developmental Shift: Why maturing as an adult often forces us out of "black and white" religious thinking into a more complex, nuanced spirituality. - The "Unselfing" Process: How to dismantle the power of the ego to allow the "Big Self" (the soul) to emerge. - Navigating the Dark Night: Understanding that spiritual pain is often a "purification fire" designed to burn away old, inherited beliefs. - Integration of Awe: How to process profound "spot-weld moments" of oneness and integrate them into a non-religious daily life. - The Power of Unknowing: Why letting go of the need for answers—and even the questions themselves—is a vital spiritual tool.

Send us a textThis has been one of the most challenging episodes we've ever attempted to release.The first recording? Unusable.The second? Nearly impossible to download and convert.Spiritually, everything has tried to stop this message from getting out—which tells me one thing: you need to hear this.I (Daniel) finally sat down with a pastor I've known about for over 19 years but somehow never met. When Clint and I finally crossed paths, we connected fast—and about five minutes into his story, I knew this wasn't going to be a normal conversation.Clint is not your average pastor. He's pastored Bloods and Crips, cowboys, and suburban families. If you're breathing, chances are Clint's walked with someone like you. His stories are raw, hilarious, intense, and so real they can't be polished or packaged.As we talk, the conversation takes unexpected turns—faith, grit, calling, brokenness, and the kind of God-moments that don't usually make it onto a church stage. No fluff. No churchy clichés. Just honest stories and powerful truths that hit when you're not ready for it.Clint is one of the most interesting humans you'll ever hear from, and this episode is equal parts laughter, jaw-dropping moments, and that quiet realization of “wow… God really does show up like that.” Buckle up. This one fought hard to be heard—and now it's your turn to listen.Support the showCheck out what's happening locally with “1LoveHTX” and ways to get involved. www.1LoveHTX.org

Most entrepreneurs are crushing it on paper… but quietly starving for connection behind the scenes.And that's exactly why I'm so fired up about today's episode of The Happy Hustle Podcast, because I'm sitting down with my brother Stefanos Sifandos for a real, raw, and deeply powerful conversation about relationships, masculinity, healing, and what it actually takes to feel “turned on” by your life again.Stefanos is the kind of guy who doesn't just talk about connection, he lives it. He's a husband, a father, an international speaker, and a transformational coach who's helped people heal trauma, redefine masculinity, and build deeper, more connected lives for over two decades. He's also the author of a brand new book called Tuned In and Turned On: A Path to True Connection, Deep Healing, and Lasting Love, and trust me… It's not just a book, it's a blueprint.In this episode, we go way beyond surface-level “relationship tips.” We talk about the stuff most people avoid… the triggers, the trauma patterns, the disconnection that sneaks in when you're busy building a business and trying to be the provider… and the emotional armor that slowly kills intimacy if you don't face it.Stefanos breaks down how many of us aren't actually struggling because we're “bad at relationships”… we're struggling because we're operating from old wounds, unconscious protection strategies, and a nervous system that's been stuck in survival mode for way too long.And the reason this conversation matters so much right now is that the world is more connected digitally than ever… but emotionally? Spiritually? Intimately? We're disconnected as hell.This episode is an invitation to come back home to yourself and, from that place, build relationships that actually feel safe, alive, and deeply fulfilling.If you're an entrepreneur trying to build a business while also being a great partner, parent, and human… this episode is for you.What does Happy Hustlin mean to you?Stefanos says embracing the multi-layered aspects of being humans, right? That involves commerce and money and success and family and love and joy and tragedy and health and wellness and novelty and variety, like all the things, man. And really embracing that in a deeper way and submitting to that, like submitting to the you know, the fruits that God has given us, that our soulful expression has the opportunity to experience.

Hi Sweet friend,  Today's episode is tender, powerful, and real. If you're a nurse or healthcare professional who has been: Spiritually curious but still searching Carrying unhealed trauma beneath a capable exterior Exploring “spiritual things” but feeling unsettled or empty Or quietly wondering if there's more to faith than what you've experienced This conversation is for you. My guest today, Ondrea Lynn, courageously shares her story — one marked by sexual and emotional trauma, deep spiritual hunger, and a long road of searching for healing in all the wrong places. Like so many helpers, she wanted relief. She wanted peace. She wanted freedom from the pain she carried in her body and soul. But the paths she took — including occult practices and counterfeit spiritual solutions — only left her more bound… until she encountered Jesus. Ondrea is a speaker and author of the book, ‘The Christian Women's Weight Loss Victory Plan (How to Defeat the Enemy and Transform Your Body).' Ondrea has helped thousands of women reach their personal health and wellness goals and improve their physical and nutritional health, as well as their emotional and spiritual well-being. She is a graduate of the Institute of Integrated Nutrition, affiliated with the Teachers College at Columbia University, some of her certifications include, NASM fitness trainer, behavioral change specialist, and self-sabotage coach. Her efforts in health & wellness have been featured in an article and on the cover of Woman's World Magazine. She appeared as a personal trainer on Lifetime television's Mission Makeover. Her ‘Christian Women's Weight Loss' podcast is currently ranking top 3% globally. Ondrea is passionate about helping Christian women lose weight and gain health so they can rise up in the Kingdom and take action on the assignment God has called them to do. And as nurses, we are often exposed to suffering, death, and spiritual questions daily — yet we rarely have space to talk about our own souls. This episode gently invites you to pause and ask: What am I actually seeking? And where am I going to find it? Whether you're listening for yourself, or because you know someone who needs this testimony,  I pray this story meets you exactly where you are.

Last year we spent the entire year talking about the seasons—how they impact us both physically and spiritually—and how our life seasons change so often without warning. We see it all around us. Things are changing SO quickly. So much feels unpredictable, a little unsteady, often hard to understand. And I just keep coming back to this reality: in a world we can't control, we can be spiritually stronger. That's why our theme on That Sounds Fun for the next 18 months is exactly that—Spiritually Stronger. We're going to lean in together. Not with pressure or perfection, just with intention. We're going to talk about the spiritual disciplines: prayer, fasting, reading scripture, worship, and celebration. And after you listen to each episode, we're going to give you a way to go a little bit deeper every single day. We're launching the Spiritually Stronger Substack, where you'll be able to find a way to reflect on the topic for the week, things to pray through, and resources to help you apply what you've heard. What if you gave one hour a week and ten minutes a day to getting spiritually stronger this year? To building the kind of spiritual muscles that help you stand steady and stay hopeful in an ever-changing world.
