Physician and coach Jessie Mahoney discusses her article "Stepping down in medicine is an evolution." In this episode, Jessie challenges the cultural belief that stepping down from medical roles is a sign of weakness, reframing it instead as "graduating." She explains how physicians often hold onto positions out of fear, habit, or identity attachment, even after the role no longer fuels them. Jessie shares how recognizing restlessness, depletion, or loss of joy can serve as invitations to evolve rather than warnings of failure. She introduces tools like Martha Beck's Body Compass to guide decision-making and advocates for normalizing transitions as a courageous act that benefits both physicians and their colleagues. Listeners will learn how letting go before burnout can open space for new growth, fulfillment, and trust in the medical community. Our presenting sponsor is Microsoft Dragon Copilot.

Leverage Your Incredible Factor Business Podcast with Darnyelle Jervey Harmon, MBA
This episode is powered by The Move to Millions Ascension Archetype Quiz , your first step in uncovering how to leverage your divine wiring to lead with alignment as you stop sabotaging your next level of success. Discover your divine wiring and uncover what's REALLY keeping YOU from millions. The MTM Minute is a quick dose of inspiration with a powerful affirmation based on our weekly full-length episode. And beginning this season, the MTM Minute will include a prayer of the week for 7 figure CEOs and 7 figure CEOs in the making. That's right, you don't have to choose – you can love God AND make millions. This week we are rewinding one of our favorite Move to Millions Minutes of the year. This week's 7 Figure CEO Affirmation is "I am stepping into my bigness, boldly embracing the vast opportunities that are unfolding for me. I no longer play small, but fully claim my space in the world. Fear is a signal that I am on the edge of my next breakthrough, and I welcome it as a catalyst for growth. I am ready to rise, take risks, and lead with confidence. God and His abundant universe are aligning everything I need to support my bigger vision, and I trust that my abundance is already within me." Here are three actionable tips to anchor in this week's affirmation Claim Your Space: Identify one area in your life or business where you've been playing small. Whether it's a conversation you've avoided or a decision you've been delaying, commit to taking up space there by stepping into your greatness. Don't apologize for your bigness; it's time to own it. Elevate Your Vision: Stretch your goals beyond what feels comfortable. If your current goals don't scare you or make you feel a bit nervous, they're likely too small. Set goals that push you to grow, and trust that the universe will help you achieve them when you step into your bigger vision. Take Bold Action: Don't wait for perfection. Take one bold action today toward your bigger vision, whether it's pitching a client, launching a new offer, or making a tough decision. Fear indicates that you're stepping out of your comfort zone and onto the path of growth. Affirm with me: "I am stepping into my bigness, boldly embracing the vast opportunities that are unfolding for me. I no longer play small, but fully claim my space in the world. Fear is a signal that I am on the edge of my next breakthrough, and I welcome it as a catalyst for growth. I am ready to rise, take risks, and lead with confidence. God and His abundant universe are aligning everything I need to support my bigger vision, and I trust that my abundance is already within me." And this week's journal prompts are: "One area where I've been playing small and need to claim my space is..." "To elevate my vision for 2025, I need to stretch my goals by..." "A bold action I can take right now to step into my bigness is..." And your prayer of the week: Prayer for Boldness and Abundance: Heavenly Father, I come before You today with a heart full of gratitude for the incredible individuals listening to this episode. I ask that You guide them as they step into their bigness, shedding any fear or limiting beliefs that have held them back. Lord, give them the courage to take up space unapologetically, to embrace their divine calling, and to trust that the abundance they seek is already on its way. I pray that You align their hearts with their bigger vision and that they feel Your presence in every step they take toward their dreams. May they be bold in their actions, confident in their worth, and unwavering in their faith. Help them to remember that abundance is their birthright, and that as they move forward, they are never alone. Lord, expand their capacity to receive and hold the greatness that is meant for them. Let them feel Your guidance and strength as they boldly pursue their calling. Surround them with opportunities, people, and resources to support their journey. In Your name, we pray. Amen.

You can't build influence if people don't trust you. And you can't build trust if your brand doesn't reflect who you are. In this rapid-fire Q&A, Emily and Jake break down personal branding that converts, how to overcome the fear of sharing your story, choose your one thing when you have ten passions, and step into Crowned Authority (so clients find you). She reveals: The real reason you're scared to share (and how to break it) What “Crown Authority” means and how to walk in it Why most brands fail before they begin (and how to build one that lasts) How to find your message when you feel called to many things Why spiritual alignment matters more than aesthetics Timestamps: (01:43) - Overcoming the fear of being seen (06:29) - Why your brand must be personal (09:28) - Finding your message when you have too many passions (11:43) - Is your brand aligned or all over the place?

It's Monster Rally time! Troy and I have been looking forward to discussing this Universal Horror film for a long time. Easily one of the most fun of the studio's 1940's horror films HOUSE OF FRANKENSTEIN (1944) has extraordinary highs and some bizarre lows. We dig into every single one we can think of including my obsession with werewolf footwear. I'll admit that I may have been overprepared for this episode which explains how the show's running time stretches to double the length of the film itself! Of course, this movie marks Boris Karloff's return to the Frankenstein series but in a new role as a mad scientist. He is fantastic here with his short-sighted goals always overruling wiser choices. Stepping into the oversized boots of the Frankenstein Monster for the first time is Glenn Strange, causing us to look at the common use of his version of the character in products aimed at fans. John Carradine becomes Universal's new Dracula in the episodic film's first segment but I make the argument that he might be playing an imposter. “Is you is, or is you ain't my Dracula?” J. Carrol Naish appears as the hunchbacked assistant to Karloff and the actor does his usual excellent job playing a character that swings wildly from brutal murderer to pitiable, lovelorn soul. We also discuss several of the returning bit players that always show up in these movies and lament that Goerge Zucco doesn't get more screentime. At a certain point we realize that we have gotten lost on the brain swapping carousel trying to figure out which noggin should get which lump of gray matter. Luckily the film has a proper torches and pitchforks villager attack to bring things to a destructive end. Plus – quicksand! If you have any comments about this film or any of the Universal horror movies thebloodypit@gmail.com is the place to send them. Thank you for listening and Happy Halloween!
The earliest lessons in a horse's life often echo through every stage that follows—and understanding them can transform how you work with horses of any age. In this first episode of the Preschool of Horsemanship series, Stacy Westfall shares what her foal Whisper taught her about curiosity, space, and timing, and how those same principles apply whether you're leading, lunging, or riding. What begins as a foal's natural curiosity becomes the key to creating willing, connected responses throughout a horse's lifetime. Key takeaways: – Curiosity is the foundation of learning for both horse and rider – Stepping back can spark more engagement than stepping forward – Recognizing push, neutral, and draw energy reveals unseen conversations – The earliest lessons aren't about control—they're about invitation This episode helps you recognize how curiosity and draw energy influence every interaction—so your horse begins to look to you, not away from you—building clearer communication and connection at every stage of horsemanship.

Ryan opens up about his 24-year marriage, raising two daughters, and how embracing suffering has shaped him into the father and husband he is today. He shares vulnerable stories about his own mistakes, including a near-infidelity experience, surviving the 2017 Las Vegas mass shooting, and how these moments became catalysts for growth rather than destruction.

Send us a textToday we're bringing you a deep dive follow up to a very exciting and mostly spoiler free author interview episode with Hazel Mack all about the monster romcom series that stole our hearts: Haven Ever After! We'll be discussing all NINE books that complete this lighthearted happily ever after series including eight full length books, and one short novella. This series has every type of monster - gargoyles to vampires, witches to werewolves, and everyone in between… and they are ALL falling in love. Single dad, sports romance, enemies to lovers, fated mates, second chance romance, and he falls first are just some of the tropes we love. And don't worry… every book is at least a 3-4 on the spice scale, despite the Gilmore Girls vibes.

This week Jordan & Gaz are joined by former Bolton, Bristol City, Preston, Rotherham, Accrington, Mansfield, Leyton Orient, Notts County, Crewe, Darlington & Ashton United fullback...NICKY HUNT! Nicky sits down with the boys in part one of his episode to discuss all things football from his time at Bolton Wanderers to his life now managing Daisy Hill FC. The lads start the pod by discussing Nicky's time at Bolton Wanderers, DJing for Ricardo Gardner, relaxing on Mario Kart with Gary Cahill & his wonder goal vs Liverpool Nicky then talks about his transition into being a football manager for Daisy Hill FC linking up with social media superstars Aaron Hunt & Angry Ginge to help take Daisy Hill through the leagues. Nicky and the lads then continue to chat about life in non-league, having to release players, huge squad sizes and other issues that come with the territory. They then chat about Nicky's early life in football from getting released at a young age and showing the determination to make it as a professional and getting caught on a night out and being suspended for two weeks by Bolton. The trio then discuss how tough reserve football used to be before Nicky made his first team debut and had the task of marking Ryan Giggs and then a young Cristiano Ronaldo. Finally they end the pod discussing why modern footballers can't do anything these days, the sacrifices Nicky had to make to become a pro and who were the defenders he looked up to in the Premier League.
Real transformation begins when we stop trying to manage our own lives and become entirely ready for God to remove what holds us back. The journey of faith isn't about perfection but willingness—offering our character defects, fears, and defenses to God and trusting Him to bring change in His time.

In this week's message, Pastor Blake reminds us from Joshua 3 that God often calls us to take steps of faith while the waters are still rising. Spiritual preparation, leadership, and obedience set the stage for God to do what only He can do.
Police Attacked by Paranormal EntityIn the mid-1990s, a night-shift police officer in a quiet small town completed his routine checks and parked near the Masonic Lodge and church just after midnight to finish paperwork. Suddenly, he felt a violent impact jolt his patrol car, shifting it several feet forward and four feet sideways into the road, scattering his belongings. Stepping out, he found no other vehicle, no damage, no tire marks, and utter silence—leaving him stunned and unable to report the impossible event. He vowed never to park there again, haunted by the sensation of an unseen force hurling his cruiser aside. Years later, in the late 1990s, two officers at the town police station before midnight watched a vintage hippie van pull up, from which emerged a young couple dressed in flawless 1960s attire—tie-dye, fringe, and bell-bottoms—who spoke with era-perfect slang. Politely asking for directions to a nearby town, they received a hand-drawn map and left smiling. As the younger officer rushed to return their forgotten directions, he reached the door mere seconds later—only to find the couple, van, and all traces vanished without a sound or mark on the dew-kissed pavement, defying any natural explanation. Both encounters, shared openly among the officers, remain vivid and inexplicable, etching a sense of the uncanny into their memories and reinforcing the town's eerie undercurrents.Join my Supporters Club for $4.99 per month for exclusive stories:https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/what-if-it-s-true-podcast--5445587/support

In this episode of The ADHD Parenting Podcast, hosts Ryan Wexelblatt and Mike McLeod explore what it means to “step into your parental authority.” Drawing from research and clinical experience, they discuss how authoritative parenting—balancing warmth with structure—helps children with ADHD develop self-regulation, emotional safety, and independence. The hosts challenge social media's rebranding of permissive parenting as “gentle” or “compassionate” and explain why consistency, clear expectations, and calm modeling are key. They also tackle the fears many parents have about being “too firm,” offering practical examples of how to set limits with empathy and predictability while nurturing connection and confidence in their children.

Stepping up to the SUNANDBASS Podcast and leading us into autumn is producer and DJ, Deekode. Originally from North West England but raised in the Midlands, Deekode has spent years shaping his style and sound, deeply influenced by SUNANDBASS Recordings. “I remember being a 15-year-old kid walking home from school rinsing Sun & Bass releases like ‘In The Shade' by Fracture & Mark System, ‘G-String' by Code 3, and ‘Rain' by Skeptical on repeat in my headphones, daydreaming of one day releasing on the label. To be invited to guest mix the Sun & Bass Podcast is an honour & a dream come true, a real full-circle milestone & without a shadow of a doubt the biggest tick on my music career bucket list so far.” Deekode describes his sound as intricate yet stripped-back sonics blended with deep but energetic beats. This mix takes us on an extended journey through drum & bass, opening with shimmering, melodic liquid before venturing deeper into the dark, minimal territory he's best known for. Perfect for our transition into autumn, check out this journey mix and let it soundtrack your season
主播Meimei和主播Maelle都有在国外生活的经历,今天两位主播就要以自身的经历聊一聊,海归或者留学生们回国以后,为什么有时候反而会觉得“不适应”呢?01. Hosts' Feeling on Returning Home 主播回国后的感受主播Meimei在美国留学6年,她觉得回国后适应的过程很棒,but there are also struggles, too(但也有一些需要努力的地方)。从已经熟悉了全英文的语言环境,再回到需要用中文表达的环境,主播Meimei有时候就会有“找不到词”来描述的窘迫感,get brain blank(大脑空白)。像“U-turn”这个词,she just couldn't find the word“掉头”来表示。主播Maelle也有同感,特别是当她需要switch (切换) between French, English and Chinese的时候,it's like the brain's stuck in translation(在语言转换之间卡住了)。海归或者留学生们可能会觉得有时候试图通过中文转述英语逻辑,最后说出来的话就很不自然,而且说中文的语调和语气都和以前不太一样了。从另一个文化回到自己的本国文化中,language is definitely one of those first big challenges (语言无疑是最初的重大挑战之一)。02. What Is Reverse Culture Shock? 到底什么是反向文化冲击?海归或者留学生们回家后,that's so special reuniting (重聚) with people you love!主播Meimei表示:6年后,再次见到家人和亲近的朋友,有一种很奇妙的感觉。熟悉感(familiarity)仍然在,但同时自己已经是成年人了(already an adult),有了很多自己新的生活习惯和个性。主播Maelle在这一点上也很有共鸣(totally relate)。Sometimes with family and friends you haven't seen for a long time, it feels like nothing has changed (感觉什么都没有改变) - and yet, everything has changed (一切又变了).再次见到以前的朋友和同学,特别容易在一起怀旧。But at the same time, people are also at completely different life stages now (完全不同的人生阶段). 这种反差感,也会让人触发一种“我这些年真的经历了很多”的感慨。Where you were, where you are now, how your experiences have shaped you (塑造自己). Through seeing people who knew you well back (曾经最了解你的人), it makes you realize (意识到) how much you have changed!And differences can be good (差异自有其价值), the uncomfortable feeling sometimes can be a reverse culture shock (反向文化冲击). 处在另一个文化中时间久了,这种对于原生环境所产生的不适应其实就是一种反向的文化冲击。03. Home as a Fluid Concept 家有了流动性Maelle has traveled to so many countries. Where do you consider home now (你现在认为家在哪里)? 对于主播Maelle来说,this is a question with a not so simple answer (不是那么容易回答)。在三种文化背景下长大,speak English at school, French at home, and surrounded (围绕) by Chinese culture every day, 主播Maelle认为she is a TCK, and the world is her home. TCK: Third Culture Kid的缩写,意思是“第三文化小孩”。Someone who grows up in a culture that's different from their parents' culture, usually due to (一般是由于) moving abroad during childhood. So your identity (身份) is formed through a mix of cultures (由多种文化的融合而形成的).主播Maelle表示:“When I moved to France for university, I felt like an outsider (局外人) there too. I looked like I belonged (归属), but I didn't feel fully French in the way people expected (期待的). ”Outsider: 局外人,这里特别指的是特定文化圈子中的局外人。After living in Spain, Australia, and Hong Kong, 主播Maelle表示home is not just one place. 确实如此,home is a fluid concept (家是具有流动性的)。主播Meimei这几年在美国搬了很多次家,觉得每个地方都有一种短暂但是又不同的归属感。It is the people, not the place that makes us feel at home. 04. Beyond Comfort: The Growth in the Culture 走出舒适区,在文化中成长国外生活的经历让两位主播感同身受的一点就是:The restlessness craves for movement and new experiences. 越看到世界的广阔,就越渴望探索更多文化。Restlessness: 不安于现状,不懈探索。Crave: 渴望;渴求。In English, we say “step out of your comfort zone (走出舒适区)”. Stepping out虽然会冒险,但那种兴奋感真的让人上瘾。It's risky (冒险的), but exciting and so rewarding (很值得的).Stepping out: 走出去;跳脱。Comfort zone: 舒适区。It is such a blessing (何其有幸) to feel at home in many places. To keep moving, growing. And take risks (敢于冒险), meet new people, experience new cultures, learn new languages and build a life somewhere so different from what we know (在与我们熟知的世界截然不同的地方,再次塑造自己的生活). It is so exciting!这个世界真的很令人兴奋,也很有挑战。每一次文化的碰撞,都是一种自我突破。在这个过程中也会不断刷新对家的定义。And of course sometimes it's also uncomfortable, but that's where the real growth happens. 比如在完全陌生的城市,navigating (导航探路) unfamiliar streets, learning to express yourself in another language, or sharing meals with people from completely different backgrounds. 看起来很小的事,做完之后都会有一种“I really grew up”的感觉。有时候正是这些“非舒适区”的体验,才能让我们更清楚地看到自己的潜力。They open our minds and stretch our hearts (开阔思维和心胸). It is not always easy of course, but it truly teaches us so much about the world and ourselves. 回国的过程,其实是一个“重新认识自己”的过程。有困惑,有喜悦,也会引发很多思考。“家”可以有很多个,很多种样子。你自己也不会只在一个阶段,一种状态里停滞不前。最重要的,是你自己怎样看待这样的改变。欢迎留言告诉我们:你是否也经历过这样的“反向文化冲击”呢?Have you experienced “reverse culture shock” like this as well?

This isn't your typical family business story. Bobby started in finance, swore he'd never work with family, then life forced a pivot.

Stepping away from our studio setting, we're bringing you a special "speedcast" from the bustling Abilities Expo in Chicago where we met Mikaylah, a remarkable young woman navigating life with dystonic cerebral palsy while pursuing her dreams.Mikaylah, a creative writing major at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, offers a candid glimpse into her world. She manages her condition with a deep brain stimulator (a device similar to a pacemaker but connected to her brain) and medication regimens. What stands out immediately is her matter-of-fact approach to these medical realities – they're simply part of her daily experience, not limitations that define her potential.When our conversation turns to literature, Mikaylah's passion ignites. She recommends "Unmasked" by Kendra Merritt, praising how the author authentically incorporates disability into fantasy fiction. This representation matters deeply to Mikaylah's, who notes the scarcity of disabled characters in the books she encountered growing up. Now, she's crafting her own stories, adding her voice to this essential narrative space. The most revealing moment comes when she shares a troubling high school incident – administrators placed her service dog's photo on her student ID instead of her own picture, a dehumanizing error that speaks volumes about how society often fails to see disabled individuals as complete persons.Michaela's parting wisdom resonates deeply: "Just keep living. Life goes on. Life is precious. You only get one."

Today's class is in Constitutional law, and our study case is Tina Peters. But first, let's discuss the bankers that set it all up. And Israel too. The goal is to divide up the melting pot. It is all happening again as Bibi pulls a fast one. Israel is America. The Peters case had amendments violated and ineffective representation. Our Amicus is damn good. The judge must consider the merits. Denial of procedure was intended to suppress speech. Reaching out to the President. The Ottoman's historically were pissed. The Tina Peters case shows her serious legal injury. District Court made a direct violation. Withholding bail as a punitive measure. AG contradictions exist. There will be no forgiveness in this case. Knowingly and willingly violating the law. The next steps could involve the Department of Justice. Decisions should only be made with a complete map of the law. The Colorado AG is backed up against the wall. Only two possible outcomes exist. It's a great dominatrix that can play a convincing submissive. Authenticity is on the rise. That, with truth, gives us a real voice. Let's band together and really fight for freedom's cause. Then we can all watch them fall.
Stepping onto Egyptian soil in 2006, Fotoula Adrimi's soul knew that this was home on Earth. Goddess Isis lifted the veil of time from her eyes, revealing an ancient world where spiritual awakening is possible and whose mysticism can be retrieved to help life now. These pages will remind you of ancient teachings aimed at rediscovering our origin as beings of light who have come to Earth to experience and awaken. Egypt is a source of fascination that keeps calling the soul back from one lifetime to the next. What is the source of power emanating from the temples, the statues of the gods and goddesses, and the strange images on the walls? What happens when we consciously enter the vortex of etheric energy placed deliberately by the ancients? We might find that we are never the same. This book takes us on a journey through time and space, through dimensions and different realities, through self-acceptance and self-love, to lead us back into our infinite spirit, where the source of magic exists.Fotoula Adrimi, BA(Hons), MSc, is the director of the ISIS School of Holistic Health, an international school of healing arts, spiritual development, and inner transformation through vibrational energy work, enlightened teachings, shamanism, and meditation. She is part of the global network of Shamanic Teachers under Sandra Ingerman. Fotoula lives and works in Glasgow, Scotland, has taught in Germany and the Netherlands, and has led spiritual pilgrimages to Egypt. Her first book, The Golden Book of Wisdom: Ancient Spirituality and Shamanism for Modern Times, is an Amazon UK bestseller.https://www.theisisschoolofholistichealth.com/Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/earth-ancients--2790919/support.

Stepping into the White House at the close of the Founding Fathers' era, London-born Louisa Adams became the nation's first foreign-born First Lady. In an age of prosperity shadowed by growing political strife, she turned personal tragedy into resilience, mastering the art of influence, forging powerful alliances, and leaving her mark on history as she helped shape John Quincy Adams's path to the presidency.

When we get to this part of the year, I think we often look around and wonder how it came so fast. How is it that the leaves are about to change colors and we're going to start talking about the holidays? Why did the winter feel eternal back in January and now we're not sure how the year is almost over? But what I love about what we've been doing on That Sounds Fun this year is getting a chance to actually be present in each season and think about where we are today—to stop and define the realities of the shift in our own lives. So what IS fall? What does it mean for our everyday lives? Our spiritual lives? Does it bring up stress for you because it's marked with a lot of busyness? Does it spark idyllic dreams of lattes and pumpkin patches? Is there relief for you that you're back in a routine after summer was more relaxed? Does it bring up fear because things are changing and moving so fast? On Monday, September 22nd, we're starting our last season of 2025 together, here on That Sounds Fun as we step into the fall, and we're going to talk about all of it. We're going to explore what the harvest looks like and how we can be a part of it. We're going to talk about how to be the healthiest versions of ourselves even when we start running out of steam at the end of the year. We're going to talk about how to prepare for the next right thing. We've got some really incredible guests coming to help us finish the last 3 months of the year really well. Guests we've hand picked for this specific season—many you know and love—because we knew we'd need them to help us with some intentional steps this fall. And, as always, Eddie and I are going to keep talking once a month BECAUSE THAT IS WHAT WE DO. The fall pages in our TSF Seasons Guidebook have everything you need to take notes and process questions from each episode. And we've thrown in a gratitude journaling page, fun fall recipes, and some sabbath and self-care ideas to help you make space for rest in the middle of all the busyness. If you don't have a copy yet this year, head over to anniefdowns.com/seasons to purchase yours and you'll get the full guidebook including all four seasons from the podcast this year. Pastor Mike Kelsey, our Pastor of the Pod this year, will help us kick off the fall on Monday, September 22nd so make sure you're subscribed to That Sounds Fun so you don't miss a single episode. We'll see you then. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
