Podcasts about Step One

Text and Be HeardWhat if the turning point in recovery isn't willpower, but acceptance? We go straight to the heart of Step Three and unpack how acceptance transforms vague intentions into tangible progress. Instead of forcing surrender, we build a path from change (Step One) to safety and help (Step Two), then into the daily practice of accepting reality—so you can move with clarity, not struggle against it.We challenge the comforting myths—“I'm not that bad,” “I can stop anytime”—and explore why the brain treats addiction like an oxygen line. From there, we offer practical tools that make acceptance real: protective routines that reduce friction, connection practices that lower shame, and the simple daily triad of laugh, work, and love. You'll hear why relationships feel lighter when both people lift their end, how skills outcompete excuses in your career and finances, and why soreness from training beats the slow ache of neglect over the long run.We also tackle spirituality without shortcuts. Rather than promising instant surrender, we invite a grounded approach: believe in something bigger and still own your choices. Prayer, reflection, and community can support that balance, but the engine is honest acceptance of where you are—emotionally, physically, financially, and relationally—so Step Four's honesty can land. If you're ready to stop wrestling with reality and start shaping it, this conversation offers a clear map: change, safety, acceptance, repeat.Subscribe for more grounded guidance on the 12 steps, share this with someone who needs a fresh start, and leave a review to tell us one truth you're ready to accept today.Support the showRecovery is Beautiful.

Send us a textWhat if the thing you're most afraid to say is the exact key that unlocks your freedom? That's where we start: with a prayer, an intention to be real, and the kind of honesty that makes sobriety livable at home, not just in a meeting.We trace the Big Book's roots back to the Sermon on the Mount, 1 Corinthians 13, and the Book of James to show why action-based faith beats white-knuckling every time. Step One gets clarified—powerless and unmanageable are two different admissions—and Steps Four and Five come alive as the place where secrets lose their grip. You'll hear why “you're only as sick as your secrets” isn't a slogan but a strategy, how to choose a sponsor who takes you through the work (and when to switch), and why humility shows up best as gratitude in motion.This conversation is family-deep. The wives speak openly about what changed: patience, fewer assumptions, and honest check-ins about triggers, fatigue, and trust. We lay out practical guardrails for real-life tests—travel, all-inclusive settings, old routines—and name the “Big Three” that keep sobriety stable: prayer, fellowship, and working with others. We also tackle amends with nuance—owning your part while holding firm boundaries around harm—plus a crucial warning about over-serving until home suffers. Tradition One gets personal: protect unity by protecting your capacity.What stands out most is the texture of hope: a teenage son modeling integrity, laughter breaking tension, and the reminder that vulnerability isn't weakness—it's the doorway to relief, connection, and a marriage that actually grows. If you're early in recovery, a spouse trying to support well, or someone stuck between dry sober and truly free, there's something here you can use today.If this conversation helped, share it with one person who needs it, hit follow so you never miss an episode, and leave a quick review—what truth are you ready to say out loud?Thank You for Joining Us..

Text and Be HeardChange starts the moment someone you trust looks you in the eye and says, you can't keep living this way—and we choose to listen. We take Step One out of the narrow box of “just stop” and turn it into a practical, courageous shift toward honesty, structure, and community. That means pausing the behavior long enough to think clearly, building simple routines that keep you safe, and choosing mentors who guide you past willpower into real momentum.We unpack, why a 72-hour detox window creates space for truth, how to use an emotional warm-up before deep work, and why a scorecard turns vague intentions into visible progress. We talk about the roots of the 12 steps, how psychology has evolved, and how modern recovery must address trauma, family patterns, and the everyday inputs that quietly drive relapse. Alcohol, gambling, and drugs are obvious hazards, but so are the “normal” poisons—fast food, phone scrolling, and the ads that celebrate escapism. Curating your attention, your circle, and your habits becomes a daily act of self-respect.You'll hear a simple blueprint: stop lying, ask for help, write down what you want, and set a schedule that protects your energy. Bring in a recovery coach, a career mentor, a financial guide, and a spiritual advisor to widen your capacity. Use small wins—movement, sleep, clean meals, outreach, uplifting content—to rebuild trust with yourself. If you've wasted years in addiction and more time trying to do it alone, this is your moment to rewrite the pattern with clarity and support.If this resonates, subscribe, share with someone who needs it, and leave a review so others can find the show.

Turning our will and our lives over to God is never easy. But it’s always good. This Christian meditation podcast offers space for Bible meditation, scripture reflection, and guided prayer rooted in the wisdom of the 12 steps. Step Three says: “We made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood Him.” Step One reminded us: I can’t.Step Two gave us hope: God can.And Step Three invites us to surrender: I think I’ll let Him. Today’s meditation is from Jeremiah 17:5–8. This poetic passage paints a vivid picture of what happens when we rely on our own strength versus when we place our hope and confidence in the Lord. One life ends up like a stunted shrub in the desert. The other is like a flourishing tree with roots reaching deep into the river. Through guided reflection, you’ll be invited to notice where you’re relying on yourself, and where God is asking you to trust Him more fully. Then you’ll rest in the truth that God wants you to be like that tree — deeply rooted, resilient through hard seasons, and bearing fruit that blesses others. Take a few deep breaths, settle in, and let’s meditate together.

We launched our new 12-week series, Stepping into Life Together, with a message from Luke 15 that highlights the problem of the older brother—someone unable to accept the Father's love. The invitation is to take Step One of the 12 Steps: to admit our lives are unmanageable and we need help. God meets us even in desperation, turning our honesty into the first step toward grace, healing, and life together.

Building muscle the right way nearly wrecked my running—because tendons don't play by the same rules.Ever felt like you're doing everything right—strength training, stretching, foam rolling—only to end up injured anyway? In this episode I break down the unexpected reason why runners who lift can still wind up with nagging calf and Achilles issues. I share exactly how I trained my way into injury and the critical insight I learned about the difference between muscle and tendon adaptation. You'll learn how imbalance could be the real culprit, why your stretching routine might be working against you, and what to do instead. If you've ever dealt with tight calves, mystery “shin splints,” or stubborn tendon pain, this episode will shift your entire approach to training.Key TakeawaysTendons adapt much slower than muscles, so overloading with strength training too fast can lead to injury—even when you're doing “everything right.”Deep tissue release and mobility work help more than static stretching, but it's important to train your body to keep the new range or it will just tighten up again.Training only the back of your legs without strengthening the front leads to overload. Balance across muscles and even between left and right sides helps prevent breakdowns.Timestamps[00:16] What You'll Learn[01:03] The Real Problem (Why Feet, Calves & Shins Get Ignored)[02:02] Strength Training Isn't Just For Gym Bros[03:14] Why Stretching Your Calves Doesn't Work (Unless You Do This)[04:27] Use This Free Download To Fix Your Achilles Calf Issues Now[05:12] The Problem With Too Much Posterior And Not Enough Anterior Strength[06:29] Achilles Overload & Sprinting: When Strength Backfires[07:25] The Fix: Eccentrics, Load Management, Patience[07:56] Shin Splints: The Catch-All Diagnosis[09:01] The Bigger Lesson: Balance Symmetry[10:04] Finish Line Thoughts: Strength is Step One.

If you’ve ever felt stuck in patterns you can’t seem to break, you aren’t alone. This Christian meditation podcast offers space for Bible meditation, scripture reflection, and faith‑based guided prayer. This series is shaped by the twelve steps—a time‑tested path to spiritual healing and transformation—because we all have hurts, habits, or hangups that hold us back. Whether or not you consider yourself an addict, these meditations are for you. We all long for lives characterized by freedom—lives rooted and grounded in God and His goodness. But the truth is, we all struggle. Step One helps us admit what we feel but don’t want to name: we are powerless over our deepest problems and our lives can become unmanageable. That honest admission isn’t despair; it’s the threshold of grace—the place we discover that while we can’t, God can. And He wants to. In today’s meditation, we sit with Romans 7:21–25, where Paul wrestles with the push and pull we all know—the desire to follow God and the struggle with sin. You’ll be guided to listen, reflect, respond, and rest, opening your heart to the healing and wholeness God wants to bring.

Here's todays meditation Scripture: Romans 7:21–25 (NLT) I have discovered this principle of life—that when I want to do what is right, I inevitably do what is wrong. I love God’s law with all my heart. But there is another power within me that is at war with my mind. This power makes me a slave to the sin that is still within me.Oh, what a miserable person I am! Who will free me from this life that is dominated by sin and death?Thank God! The answer is in Jesus Christ our Lord. So you see how it is: In my mind I really want to obey God’s law, but because of my sinful nature I am a slave to sin.

Jeremy Keil explains step 1 of the 5 step retirement plan: retirement spending. When it comes to retirement planning, one of the biggest questions people ask is: Where do I start? The truth is, before you think about investments, taxes, or even when to claim Social Security, you need to figure out one thing—how much you're going to spend in retirement. This is what I call Step One in creating your retirement master plan, which I've outlined in my book Retire Today. While many people assume retirement planning begins with assets and income, I believe it begins with spending. After all, if you don't know what you'll spend, how can you know how much income you'll need? Why Many Budgets Fail When I sit down with people, their first instinct is often to start building a retirement budget. They think they need to track every coffee, grocery run, and gas fill-up to get an accurate picture. But here's the problem—budgets are almost always wrong. People underestimate their spending, forget about irregular costs, and end up thousands of dollars off the mark. I've seen it happen time and again. Instead of building from the ground up, there's a simpler formula that works nearly every time: Income – Savings = Spending. Whatever comes from your paycheck into your checking account typically gets spent—unless you're intentionally saving it. By starting here, you can find your true monthly lifestyle amount without overcomplicating things. The Story of Thomas Take Thomas, for example. He had what I thought was the best budget I'd ever seen—two years of detailed expense tracking. Every expense logged, every penny accounted for. He proudly told me he spent $7,000 per month. When we broke it down, though, we realized he didn't need years of tracking to figure this out. His income was $104,000 per year. He saved $20,000 into investments. That left $84,000 for spending—or $7,000 per month. Exactly what his “perfect” budget said, but it took him two years to arrive at something the formula showed in minutes. Don't Confuse Saving with Growing One caution I often give people is not to confuse saving with growing. If you're putting $500 into savings every paycheck, but pulling it out later for property taxes or vacations, that's not saving—it's managing cash flow. True saving means money you set aside for the long-term, not just for short-term annual expenses. This distinction matters because when you're projecting retirement spending, you need to know what's truly ongoing versus what's temporary or irregular. The Costs People Forget Even when people nail down their monthly lifestyle amount, I often see them forget two of the biggest retirement costs: Health Insurance – Before 65, you'll likely pay much more out of pocket than once Medicare kicks in. A good rule of thumb is budgeting around $1,000 per person per month, but this varies widely. Taxes – Many retirees underestimate taxes, or treat them like a fixed bill. But taxes are flexible—you can plan, shift, and smooth them over time. That's why I recommend using tax planning software or working with a planner who can show you different strategies. Don't Forget the “Non-Lifetime” Expenses Your monthly lifestyle spending is the foundation, but retirement also comes with non-lifetime expenses—costs that won't last forever, but you should still plan for. These often include: Paying off a mortgage (which eventually goes away). Buying a new car (which will likely happen more than once if you retire in your 60s). Home renovations and repairs (you'll notice more when you're home full-time). Big trips and family events. If you don't plan for these, they'll sneak up and throw your retirement plan off track. Why Step One Matters Most Retirement is not about hitting a magic savings number—it's about matching your income to your lifestyle. Step one is figuring out your lifestyle amount: how much you nee...

In this conversation, Dr. Elizabeth Klodas, a preventive cardiologist and founder of Step One Foods, discusses the critical role of nutrition in managing heart disease and the challenges faced in integrating dietary changes into medical practice. She shares her journey from traditional medicine to creating a food company aimed at reducing reliance on medications through nutrition. The discussion highlights the importance of randomized controlled trials in validating the effectiveness of food-based interventions, the impact of pharmaceuticals on healthcare, and the need for a shift in consumer perceptions towards whole food ingredients. Dr. Klodas emphasizes the potential for a healthier future where cardiologists are less needed due to preventive measures and lifestyle changes.Takeaways:Nutrition is often overlooked in favor of pharmaceuticals in healthcare.Patients are rarely asked about their diet by healthcare providers.Changing dietary habits can lead to significant health improvements.Pharmaceuticals are easier to prescribe than dietary changes.There is a lack of nutrition education in medical training.Step One Foods aims to fill nutritional gaps in patients' diets.Randomized controlled trials can validate the effectiveness of food products.Consumer perceptions of health foods can be influenced by marketing.The food industry often prioritizes cost over nutrition.A better world would mean fewer cardiologists needed due to preventive health measures.Sound bites:“There is very little to no nutrition education for physicians. As I look back on this I consider this educational malpractice.”“All the medical evidence of what we should be doing is very heavily pharma biased, because guidelines are based on randomized control clinical trials.”“So there's loads of reasons why nutrition is not used in clinical care the way it should be. None of that is an excuse though, because it works and it's so vital.”“What if I asked you to like eat this food twice a day and I otherwise left you alone? What started happening is people calling and saying, hey, my cholesterol dropped 39 points. Then I'm like, okay, we're gonna subject our products to a randomized control trial. Let's see. Let's prove it. Does this actually work?”“If I reduce, LDL, the bad cholesterol across the US population by an average of 9%, I will finally dethrone heart disease as our number one killer.”“In that trial, we replicated what people were calling in with our highest LDL reduction was close to 40 % in 30 days. That's a medication level cholesterol reduction. And we did that with food, without turning people's lives upside down.”“It's not just the nutrient of interest that's important. It's the delivery vehicle. You can stuff a bunch of fiber into a Twinkie. But in the end, you're still eating a Twinkie, right? Food and nutrition is complex.”“At Step One Foods I take the complexity out for people. I take whole food ingredients, each and every single one that has data behind it in terms health benefits, and put them in my foods.”“We are probably the most overfed and undernourished society in the history of our species.”“If you truly believe in your mission, you have to ignore all the no's.”Promo Offer:Code: BETTERWORLDLink: https://www.steponefoods.com/discount/BETTERWORLDOffer: 10% off first order for both one time and subscription orders.

In this powerful conversation, Greg Nettle sits down with author and pastor John Ortberg to discuss his newest book, Steps: A Guide to Transforming Your Life When Willpower Isn't Enough. Drawing inspiration from the 12 Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous, Ortberg reveals why this recovery-based model may actually be the most effective path to real spiritual transformation—for everyone, not just those with addiction. The conversation covers: How AA emerged from discipleship roots in the Oxford Group Why most churches struggle with a “wimpy Step One” How to foster communities of grace-filled vulnerability The critical role of desperation, community, and daily practices in spiritual growth How churches can implement the Steps curriculum and even start B12 groups (Bible + 12 Steps) John also shares about his free daily vodcast ministry, Become New, and upcoming resources for small groups and churches based on Steps, launching Fall 2025. Whether you're planting a church or trying to revitalize one, this episode offers practical wisdom and a compelling vision for deep, lasting discipleship. We hope you enjoy this podcast.
