Podcasts about staying grounded

This is Part 1 of our 4-part A Back to School Series on Live Vedanta. From navigating loneliness and evolving friendships to maintaining family connections from a distance, this conversation offers Vedantik tools for clarity and self-rootedness during young adulthood. Whether you're starting college or simply stepping into a new chapter, this episode reminds you that even through change, you can grow with intention and connection. In this episode, Sumanji sits down with Akshaya to explore what it means to live away from home while staying anchored within. Having grown up always hearing from his parents, “we want you to be happy, we want you to be independent,” Sumanji strove to do just that in all the ways society and the world had to offer. Leaving medical school in hopes of achieving more fulfillment through a career in IT, Sumanji found himself still wanting, wondering what it meant to be truly happy, truly independent. It was clear happiness was what everyone desired for themselves and each other, but it remained ever elusive. It was then that Sumanji went to his first Satsang in Pittsburgh, PA, and met Shri Vivek Gupta, who shared with him the knowledge of Advaita Vedanta. Convinced and compelled that he, too, could experience this for himself, Suman joined the two-year residential Vedanta course under the guidance of Pujya Swami Prakashananda at Chinmaya Mission's ashram in Trinidad & Tobago.Returning in 2018, Sumanji now lives in Providence, RI, where he works full-time as an Information Technology Manager. He serves Chinmaya Mission Niagara and Cleveland through various classes and study groups, traveling every opportunity he gets to share the message that gave his life meaning: that perpetual, independent joy is one's nature.Register to be a part of our Seeking Culture CommUnity for young adults.Edited by Dhruv Panicker.Follow Seeking Culture on Instagram

In this episode of Our Womanity features a conversation with Sundae Bean, a transformation facilitator who supports individuals and organizations as they traverse through life quakes and other major shifts. A trusted voice for navigating life between worlds, Sundae is currently dedicated to organizational transformation in Switzerland and is widely known for her podcast, IN TRANSIT.Perimenopause: A Biological TransitionSundae explains perimenopause as an externally led transition—something that happens to you, not something you choose. This can overlap with other life transitions: Internally Led: Changes that come from within. Performance Led: Pursuing a big goal, like a promotion. Externally Led: Changes that come from our environments.She emphasizes the importance of distinguishing between a genuine emotional response and a biochemical one, noting that while feelings are real, their source may be hormonal rather than a true reflection of your reality.Strategies for Navigating Hormonal ShiftsSundae offers practical advice to help manage symptoms like "monkey mind": Reality Check and Blood Check: Use this dual approach to test what's truly going on. Talk to a trusted friend to get an outside perspective, and work with your doctor to get yourself evaluated . Trust Your Body: Sundae shares her own experience of listening to her body's "yummy yes" for yoga over a "hard no" for running. This highlights the importance of trusting your body's needs over external advice. Find Your Body Compass: To counter feeling out of control, she suggests a simple exercise: take three deep breaths and hold the fourth until you can feel your own heartbeat. This grounds you and gets you out of your head.Perimenopause as a Growth OpportunityWhile difficult, perimenopause can be a time for growth. Self-Advocacy: It may force you to become your own best advocate, taking charge of your health when the system feels unsupportive. Adapting Strategies: Acknowledge that old strategies might not work now. A coach can help you develop new approaches. Bending Reality: Sundae encourages listeners to honestly assess where they might be "bending reality"—acting as if there are more than 24 hours in a day. This awareness is the first step toward delegating and prioritizing.Advice for Healthcare ProvidersSundae offers advice for healthcare providers to better support their patients. Listen to the Patient: Ask, "How have you been?" to understand the full context of their life. Validate Their Experience: Don't dismiss symptoms. A simple, "That sounds hard," can be incredibly validating.Refer When Needed: If you cannot provide the necessary care, refer patients to a coach or other specialist.

Episode 6 of SEASON 6, is about “HUMILITY” Welcome, thank you so much for joining us on todays episode. We talk about staying humble, keeping your feet in the ground. Why is humbleness, being humble important?? It's the bridge to connecting with others or creating distance!! If there's one thing you can count on, is that my co-host and I will speak the unspoken and share personal exempts of what we have learned, so that it can help you not have to go thru that, to save you time and pain, but also, to not create a horrible situation that you cannot go back on. This has the potential to help those who listen before life hits you right between the eyes. Humility? Where do you learn to be humble? Who are your examples or influence?? Take a look at your circle, take a look at yourself? Start asking the questions that you are afraid to ask, become the version of you that you never imagine (Healthy, mentally, emotionally and physically) Speaking the unspoken, isn't just about talking… its about connecting with the brave, the ones willing to accept errors and mistakes. YOU!! Those who have reached out, those who keep seeking change because reading what you have lived for all these years is just not enough anymore. So, with our hearts to yours… enjoy! “Humility” Any questions you may have for myself or cohost, please ask, reach out… (just ask, stop letting fear stop you) My email is Themaceffect19@gmail.com for all questions and inquiries. I promise you this will bless you. How do I know, because God's word is never void. My heart is ever so grateful, Thank you seems like I'm stealing from you, but its all I got… Thank you! #Themaceffect #maceffect #mac #mikecampos6 #god #love #hope #faith #joy #question #hurtpeople #hurt #healing #healpeople #healingmind #healingbody #heartofgold #healingspirit #morals #chorebelieves #growingpain #thewilltofight #keepgoing #youhavepurpose #awakening #understanding #building #fundamentals #ihaveaquestion #iwanttolearn #growing #growingpains #letsgetitright #nottoday #nottodaysatan #jesuschrist #inJesusname #lovealwayswins #peace #letsgetit #testing #learning #process #developing #maturing #fatherhood #motherhood #husband #wife #partnership #equals #tildeath #god #processing #process #guest #podcast #shorts #growth #development #growth #purpose #will #plans #goals #challange #opportunity #welcoming #bringit #letgoletgo #lakersin5

What does choosing joy really mean when you’re living through pain, pressure, or exhaustion? In this deeply personal solo episode, Choosing Joy host Deborah Joy Winans Williams sits down—not as an actress or celebrity, but as herself—to answer your questions, share her heart, and reflect on what joy looks like when it’s uncomfortable, spiritual, and hard-won. Deborah opens up about motherhood, mental health, faith, grief, self-worth, and how she learned (and is still learning) to choose joy daily—not just on stage, but in real life. From the lessons of her Winans family legacy to her girls' trip epiphany with Merle Dandridge to the quiet prayers that sustain her, this episode is a soulful, grounding invitation to go deeper. Whether you’re a woman of faith, an artist in progress, a mother in motion, or just someone trying to pour from a not-so-full cup—Deborah’s raw honesty and wisdom remind us that joy isn’t a mood... it’s a decision.

In a world that constantly pushes us to hustle harder and do more, this week's conversation is a breath of fresh air. I sat down with the wise and grace-filled Kari Kampakis, and she reminded us of something so important: sometimes the most faithful thing we can do is make peace with accomplishing less in a day.As parents, it's easy to feel like we need to keep up with everything: our careers, commitments, expectations, and a perfectly run household. But what if slowing down is actually the bravest and most obedient thing we can do? Kari gives us permission to step back, breathe, and create space for the things that really matter.Here are four takeaways from our conversation:How doing less can actually strengthen your parenting and your peaceWhy margin in your schedule creates more room for spiritual growthWays to listen to God's leading in the pace of your family lifeThe freedom that comes when you stop chasing “shoulds” and start embracing “enough”Kari Kampakis is a mom of four daughters, a bestselling author, speaker, and host of The Girl Mom Podcast. Her books, including Love Her Well and More Than a Mom, have encouraged countless women to parent with purpose, grace, and deep faith. Kari's message is always full of wisdom and grounded in truth and this conversation is no different.I hope this episode helps you take a deep breath and remember: you don't have to do it all to be a faithful parent.(00:00) Introduction to Parenting Dynamics(03:08) Navigating the Challenges of Modern Parenting(05:58) Building Lifelong Relationships with Our Children(08:47) The Importance of Connection in Parenting(12:07) Embracing Imperfection in Parenting(16:24) Embracing Vulnerability in Parenting(17:16) Navigating Big Emotions(18:40) Understanding Adolescent Emotional Development(20:32) Staying Grounded as a Parent(24:01) Connecting Before Correcting(27:32) Self-Care for Moms(30:00) Modeling Healthy Behaviors for Future GenerationsConnect with KariKariKampakis.comInstagramGirl Mom podcastResources MentionedKari's booksRaising Kind Daughters episode on The Christian Parenting PodcastChristian Parenting resourcesA Great Cloud of Witnesses prayer journalThe Christian Parenting Podcast is a part of the Christian Parenting Podcast Network.

It's been five years since I first called myself a minimalist. A lot has changed since then: my work, my family, and how I see the world. In this episode, I reflect on why I still choose minimalism, even when life gets messy, why it remains one of the most powerful tools I have to keep things simple, and how one simple question continues to keep me grounded in what matters most.For more go to: www.scottmlynch.comLevel up your life by joining my Patreon where you'll get exclusive content every week and more badass offerings (rips t-shirt in half, Hulk Hogan style, and runs around the room). And/or…Unlock practical and tactical insights on how to master your mindset and optimize your happiness directly to your inbox.If you're a glutton for punishment and want more swift kicks in the mind follow me on social:InstagramYouTubeLeave a review and tell me how I suck so I can stop doing that or you can also tell me about things you like.

Have you ever considered that the key to leadership isn't just vision, but also preparation? Kevin sits down with Coach Matthew Mitchell to explore the role of preparation in leadership and in building winning teams. Matthew shares his five levels of preparation: casual, cursory, compliant, committed, and constant. He believes leaders need to reach levels 4 and 5, where thorough systems, discipline, and introspection take precedence. Using Coach John Wooden's approach, he explains that most preparation should focus on your systems, only delving deeply into the competitor's game when necessary, such as during critical “special situations.” Listen For 00:00 Introduction 00:36 Welcome to the podcast 01:06 About Kevin's book “Flexible Leadership” 01:33 Guest introduction: Coach Matthew Mitchell 02:27 Overview of Coach Mitchell's coaching career 03:44 How he got into coaching and writing 06:16 Why return to coaching now? 07:35 Focus of the book: preparation 08:32 Why preparation matters 10:23 Casino analogy: "the house always wins" 13:00 The five levels of preparation 17:01 Where organizations typically fall on the preparation spectrum 18:36 Peyton Manning's quote on preparation and work ethic 20:19 Attitude and effort: what we can control 22:17 Coaching insights that apply to business 24:22 The importance of identifying your “bread and butter” 25:03 Constant preparation and the power of systems 26:22 Preparing for strategy vs. reacting to the competition 30:27 Special situations in games and business 31:06 The danger of perfectionism vs. pursuit of excellence 32:11 What Coach Mitchell does for fun 33:03 What he's currently reading 34:39 Where to learn more about Coach Mitchell 35:24 Final thoughts and action steps for listeners 36:34 Closing remarks and next episode teaser Matthew's Story: Matthew Mitchell is the author of Ready to Win: How Great Leaders Succeed Through Preparation.

Five weeks before her 16th birthday in 1976, Amy Grant was offered her first record deal. Now, after tens of millions of record sales, six Grammy awards, a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, and a receipt of Kennedy Center Honors, she is widely recognized as the “Queen of Christian Pop.” From the outside, one might assume that Amy must be a character with a personality larger than life. But in this exclusive interview, Amy opens up about her career as a singer, her family life, and her faith, all against the backdrop of a troubling past few years which have included recovering from open-heart surgery and a severe bike accident. Through it all, she showcases what truly makes her an anomaly. In spite of her fame, she remains undoubtedly grounded to a life of quiet, peaceful fulfillment. Show Notes Resources: Amy Grant's Website Similar Episodes: Truth-telling, Anger, and Race: Vince Gill “Does This Make My Butt Look Big?”: Ashley Cleveland Fighting Dragons and Singing at Loss: Drew Holcomb Actor and Activist: Martin Sheen Transcript Want more NSE?

Sometimes these groups are formed just for one action, but often they are ongoing groups that organise and take part in actions over a number of years.Affinity groups are often organised along the principles of non-hierarchy and autonomy.

Make sure to follow me on IG @ foryoufromeve and on Tiktok @ foryoufromeve so you can be a part of the next one! All responses, questions, and advice are left anonymous Xx DM's We Answered: 1. How to stay grounded / how to meditate 2. (BREAKUP STORY) I had a relationship with a Turkish man but he had to end our relationship because his family did not accept me since I am not Turkish. we both feel that we are life partners and we love each other the most but now he chose his family and broke my heart. We dated for five years and I am heartbroken. What do I do? 3. (BREAK UP STORY) I was wondering if you had any advice for my specific situation: my boyfriend and I of almost 6 years broke up 2 weeks ago. He is still my favorite person and I think so highly of him. He ended the relationship because I had recently not been being the best girlfriend. I feel as if I had gotten too comfortable and truly was not treating him how I should have been.It sounds silly but I was unaware of that until the breakup happened. I was really unaware that anything was wrong. I still love him so much and have hope that we will get back together but l'm not sure if that's the right way to feel because I am afraid he won't come back.

The ideal of democracy is that it can contain ALL of our diversity and differences and channel into safe, institutionally protected representation without the use of threat and violence. Democracy depends on societal trust, free + fair elections, widespread participation, free + fair media, due process, etc. Democracy can be undermined by people using threat/violence so we must make the cost of political violence too high to enact. We must take offensive and defensive strategies when addressing political violence. Tomorrow, I'll share some of those historically effective strategies.

If your conversations are starting to feel more like combat, you're not alone. In this powerful episode, Michael and Megan sit down with Jefferson Fisher—trial attorney, social media sensation, and author of The Next Conversation—to talk about the small shifts that create major breakthroughs in communication. From regulating your nervous system to choosing connection over triumph, this episode is packed with practical, actionable tools you can use today.Memorable Quotes“When you set out to win an argument, you often will lose the relationship. If you only see it as something to win, that means you're going to lose a lot more.”“Who wants to be around the person who always has to be right? That is somebody who is lonely.”“Instead of seeing arguments as something to win, you see them as something to unravel.”“You don't have to like it. You just gotta understand it.”“That's the key with connection: I can disagree with you and still connect with you. I can still be unhappy, I can still be mad at you, and still connect with you.”“You are in complete control of the pace of the conversation.”“When you don't say it with control, you end up reacting rather than responding. It's just your natural fight or flight will take over and you're going to start responding more emotionally.”“You gotta let them pour it all out before they'll ever be willing to accept anything that you say.”Key TakeawaysArguments Aren't Battles. If your goal is to win, you've already lost. Reframe arguments as something to unravel, not conquer.Start With Self-Control. Nervous system regulation is the key to effective communication—especially when things get tense.Use “Small Talks.” Short, verb-based phrases like “be still” or “practice kindness” can center you in high-stakes conversations.Connection > Agreement. We don't always have to be on the same page to cultivate a meaningful relationship.Confidence Follows Action. Speak with assertiveness, not apology. Confidence grows as you use your voice.ResourcesThe Next Conversation: Argue Less, Talk MoreJefferson Fisher on InstagramThe Jefferson Fisher PodcastWatch on YouTube at:  https://youtu.be/kJsQe3S3rw0This episode was produced by Sarah Vorhees Wendel of VW Sound

Thinking of power as an upside-down triangle is a great way to remember where power lies. Everyday individuals hold the structures of power up with their daily labor within the system. This is why mass noncooperation movements are so successful in toppling powerful dictatorships. We have to take back our power by demanding the system work for US, rather than us for it. Handling fear isn't about suppression, it's about redirection. Fear can paralyze you into submission, or fuel your demands for justice. RESOURCES: What can I do?

In today's episode, I share why purpose-driven leadership goes far beyond titles or strategies. It's about creating cultures built on humility, clarity, and daily renewal. I talk about how transformation comes not from pressure or ego but from recalibrating your energy and leading through service. You'll hear how gratitude, forgiveness, and joy can fuel long-term resilience, and why comparison is one of the greatest threats to your calling. From overcoming burnout to blessing your critics, I explore how to stay focused on what you're given instead of reacting to what's missing. Great leadership isn't about being impressive. It's about being impactful even when no one is watching.
