In this episode of the Sacred Window Podcast, Christine Eck sits down with postpartum doula and lactation consultant Daisi Kuuse from Estonia to explore the identity of the “strong woman” and how this role can shape the postpartum experience.Many women are raised to be independent, capable, and resilient. They hold families together, solve problems, and carry responsibilities without asking for help. But pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum window often reveal something deeper — healing after birth requires support, rest, and the willingness to receive care.Daisi shares her personal journey through miscarriage, birth, and postpartum recovery, as well as what she has witnessed while supporting families in her community. Together, Christine and Daisi discuss the cultural expectations placed on mothers, the hidden burden of always being strong, and why postpartum care is essential for maternal healing and wellbeing.This episode offers an important reminder: strength does not disappear in motherhood — it simply takes a new form. Sometimes the most powerful step a mother can take is allowing herself to be supported.In This EpisodeWhat it means to carry the identity of the “strong woman”How generational and cultural patterns shape motherhoodPregnancy loss and surrendering control in birthThe emotional and physical vulnerability of postpartumBreastfeeding challenges and early motherhood realitiesWhy asking for help can feel so difficult for many mothersHow postpartum planning can create a foundation of supportThe role of community care in maternal healingAbout Daisi:Daisi is a mother, postpartum doula, and lactation consultant from Estonia, supporting families with compassionate guidance, practical help, and evidence-based knowledge. She offers postpartum doula support, breastfeeding guidance, baby care, early parenting support, and parent education both online and in homes, as well as postpartum treatments and nurturing baby showers in person.Links:Neljas Trimester – sünnitusjärgne tugi, imetamisnõustaja, beebipiduAre you feeling the call to know more about Conscious Postpartum Care?Reach out! ⁠Schedule a time with Christine⁠ to find out how this work can transform your care business or provide a meaningful career path.Here is the ⁠link⁠ to our free class@‌sacredwindowstudiesJoin our ⁠Facebook Group⁠Podcast Music is Composed by Sara Emmitt, graduate of the Center for Sacred Window Studies.

Every loss is a test. Did you learn humility or become bitter? Failure reveals character faster than success ever could.Men who've never failed are terrified of taking real risk. I keep pens in my car, backpack, every room—ready when gold strikes. Someone treating you terribly is one of the greatest gifts. They force you to look at yourself. The ironsmith's flames make swords stronger. Most men waste failures by wallowing or rushing on. The warrior sits with loss, feels deeply, extracts every lesson.You don't just survive failure—you get stronger from it. Each defeat adds wisdom, resilience, strategic depth success can't teach. SpongeBob shriveling: too much sun, too much water. Balance.Listen if you're ready to stop resisting the initiation and start learning from the burn. Your losses aren't punishments—they're preparation.New episodes out every Monday and Thursday at 10 AM Eastern Time Get The Book: https://go.justinegliskis.com/?utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=show_notes&utm_campaign=book_funnelEmail: hey@justinegliskis.com to get in contact with meDiscover a podcast designed for entrepreneurs and solopreneurs navigating the challenges of entrepreneurship, offering insights on stress management, health and wellness, and overcoming imposter syndrome, while emphasizing work-life balance, energy alignment, and inner peace; explore topics like burnout recovery, business automation, scaling a business, business growth strategies, client management, mental resilience, overcoming anxiety, and achieving clearer thinking for sustainable success, using the blade of awareness, solving emotional dysfunction and unveiling the trickster within.

In this episode, we sit in one of the most powerful promises in Scripture — Joshua 1:9:“Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid… for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.” This wasn’t just encouragement — it was a command. And it was given to Joshua in a moment of uncertainty, leadership pressure, and stepping into something bigger than himself. We talk about: Why strength is mentioned over and over again in Joshua 1 The connection between obedience and courage Why we don’t have to muster up our own bravery And how God gives supernatural strength for the choices in front of us Strength isn’t about personality.It’s not about being fearless.It’s about choosing obedience — even when you feel unsure. If today feels heavy, overwhelming, or stretching… this episode is your reminder that strength is given. And God is with you wherever you go.

You've been the strong one for so long you've forgotten what it feels like to be held. And your body is starting to keep score. Sound familiar?In Episode 4 of The Soul's 8 Thresholds of Transformation, Nina Hirlaender OFS takes you to St Michael's Mount off the coast of Cornwall, where the land itself asks you a pointed question: Are you shining, or are you burning out? This is the Summer Solstice threshold — the place where your full visibility, leadership, and power either become sustainable or consume you. Drawing on the theology of Julian of Norwich, the calm authority of Archangel Michael, and a story from a pilgrim named Margaret who realized she'd been "fighting like she was afraid she'd lose," Nina offers a grounded path to radiance that includes receiving, not just giving. You'll leave with a five-minute practice that trains your nervous system to hold power without strain.What You'll Learn:Why your success feels hollow when your body is running on adrenaline and your joy has quietly disappeared. The moment on St Michael's Mount that shows you exactly how you approach every challenge in your lifeWhat Julian of Norwich understood about power and tenderness that most modern leaders get dangerously wrongA five-minute practice that rewires your nervous system to hold visibility without grippingThe one shift that turns overgiving from a fear response into genuine, sustainable strengthYour Next Steps:Watch the free class replay: "The 8 Seasons of the Soul (And How to Know Which One You're In)": https://nina-hirlaender.mykajabi.com/8-seasons-of-the-soul Register for the final Celtic Shamanism in England pilgrimage (May 23 – June 2, 2026): https://dancingspirittours.com/journeys/england/Book a call with Nina: https://calendly.com/nina-hirlaender/15minSupport the showRate, Review & Follow If Holy Rebels has helped you practise your spirituality in real life, would you take 30 seconds to leave a quick rating and review?

What if the tension you feel during growth isn't a sign that something is wrong—but a sign that something is working? In this episode of The Flourish Frequency™, we explore what it truly means to be soft enough to receive without collapsing… and strong enough to hold without hardening. Rather than pushing harder or retreating into comfort, this conversation invites you into a different relationship with expansion—one rooted in nervous system stability, self-led identity, and the capacity to stay present with desire, responsibility, and growth. We'll explore: ●     Why tension often appears right before expansion ●     How softness and strength were never meant to be opposites ●     Sexual tension as a mirror for how we relate to intensity ●     The identity shift that allows you to hold more life without burning out If you've been feeling stretched lately—by visibility, leadership, love, or possibility—this episode will help you understand why… and how to meet that edge with trust instead of force.

Matthew 14:22-31, 2 Timothy 1:7, James 1:22, 1 John 4:4

Daily Word As leaders, creators, and builders, we often pour everything into vision, people, and purpose while quietly neglecting the very vessel God uses to carry out the assignment: our bodies. Scripture makes it clear that our bodies are not incidental, disposable, or secondary to spiritual work. They are temples of the Holy Spirit, designed to host God's presence and execute God's will. Using the imagery of athletic discipline, biblical context, and the example of Christ Himself, this message calls leaders to reframe health not as vanity or self-focus, but as faithful stewardship. __________ 1 Corinthians 6:19–20 NIV, Romans 12:1 NIV, 1 Corinthians 9:24–27 NIV, Daniel 1:8–16 NIV, John 1:14 NIV __________ Partner with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com/partner Connect with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com Leave a Comment: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com/comments __________    

Mo Haghbin, managing director for strategic ETFs at ProShares says it's not unusual to have a strong equity market when there's accommodative central bank policy, and he's expecting that to continue even with the Fed under direction of new chairman nominee Kevin Warsh. Haghbin says "It's a little bit of a Goldilocks situation right now," with the next year being an environment that seems "just right," and therefore is not particularly vulnerable to a bear market or recession. In "The Week That Is," Vijay Marolia, chief investment officer at Regal Point Capital, discusses spiking volatility that saw precious metals reach new highs before backing away from them, looks at mixed earnings results for four Big Tech names, and discusses the merger that Elon Musk is proposing for himself — combining SpaceX with xAI — and why the seemingly strange deal isn't actually weird. David Trainer, president at New Constructs, looks at a boutique mutual fund that on the surface looks decent but which he says holds too many dangerous stocks, which he thinks will turn three years of super-hot performance back into a long-term record of feast-or-famine results. Plus, Chuck looks at the recently announced retirement of Will Danoff, manager of Fidelity's Contrafund since 1990, and how investors should evaluate their next response, a next move Chuck himself is considering as a shareholder in Danoff's hugely successful fund.

What happens when the strength you've always depended on suddenly isn't enough?

Let me ask you directly: are you strong enough to be a dominant? Not strong enough to tell her what to do. Strong enough to actually lead her. Because real strength isn't about being unmoved by emotion. It's about being able to handle emotion without shutting down, without running away, without needing it to stop. And if you can't do that, you're not strong enough. Not yet. In this episode, I challenge the lie that dominance requires emotional armor. I break down why that version of "strength" is actually fear, why she keeps testing you (and why you keep failing), and what it actually takes to be strong enough to create real surrender. This is confrontational. It's supposed to be. Because too many men are hiding behind performances of strength instead of doing the work to become actually powerful. Questions about our courses?

Morning Mantra: “You were given this life because you are strong enough to live it.”Life is tough. But so are you.  We have all had days when we have thought we weren't strong enough to get through it.  But to keep going when everyone would understand if you quit, that is when your strength is discovered.We have all asked ourselves, "Why am I going through this?"  Because it's a part of your journey of self-discovery.  Because  life doesn't  always get easier or more forgiving, you just get stronger and more resilient. More able to deal with what life throws at you.When in doubt, look back at how far you've come, what you have already overcome and know that some of the best days of your life haven't happened yet.#BeStronger #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #MorningMantras #InspirationalQuotes #HorseHippie #HorseHippieBrand #HorseHippieBoutique

What does real masculinity look like when life gets heavy?In this episode of Pushing Back Chaos, Kris and Paul challenge cultural ideas of strength and explore a healthier model of masculinity—one rooted in presence, service, emotional awareness, and faith.“Masculinity isn't proven by how much you can lift. It's proven by how much you can carry—and still love well.”They discuss holiday pressures, toxic vs. healthy masculinity, childhood patterns under stress, identity over control, and how true strength is revealed through service rather than self-protection. Personal stories from Special Operations, family medical crises, and leading at home bring the conversation down to real life.This episode challenges cultural definitions of masculinity and replaces them with a model rooted in presence, service, emotional integrity, and faith. Final ThoughtMasculinity, at its best, reflects a strength that absorbs pressure without passing pain downstream. It's the quiet resolve to stay present, faithful, and loving—especially when life is heavy.Join the Conversation:Follow us on Instagram, Facebook or message us directly — we read every one.If this episode made a difference, please share it with someone who needs to hear it.And if you haven't yet, drop us a review — it helps more people find this space.#PushingBackChaos #PBC #Leadership #ConsciousLiving #HealingJourney #HMG #HeroesMediaGrp #StrongEnoughToStaySoft #HealthyMasculinity #StrengthWithPurpose #FaithFirst #PresenceOverPerformance #MasculinityRedefined Learn more about your ad choices.

On this episode we revisit a popular debate, but with a few new angles. This is not a typical strength vs cardio conversation, since everyone should obviously do both. Instead we focus on the "optimization" challenge of finding an appropriate balance between the two.Baseline health guidance (both for Americans and globally) calls for 150 minutes of "moderate to vigorous physical activity" weekly, plus two days of muscle strengthening activity. That provides a starting point for minimum activity levels, but what about performance goals?We chat about strength and endurance standards from a few different sources, as well as research on dose response to strength training vs cardio. For the Ranger Regiment data mentioned, the more recent version is no longer available since their human performance page has been deactivated, but here's a link to the older data we discuss.BYU/University of Minnesota study on dose-response association with mortalityHarvard/Iowa State optimum dose studyRand study on ACFT associations with injury risk

No problem is greater the God's power.(Matthew 9:18-26)

Getting Off the Sidelines Have you ever looked around and realized that too many parents are sitting on the sidelines of their kids' lives? Chris had this exact thought during a recent Girl Dad camp, where he noticed how many dads struggled to fully participate in simple activities like soccer, frisbee, or even just running around with their daughters. It broke his heart—not out of judgment, but out of empathy. Because every parent wants to be in the game, not watching from the bench. In this episode, Chris and Melissa unpack what it really means to stay active and engaged—not for vanity, but for energy, presence, and connection. They share stories from Disneyland, conversations with inspiring elders, and even Chris's intense bodybuilding prep that showed the tradeoffs and sacrifices health sometimes requires. The theme is clear: your health isn't just about you. It's about the people counting on you. Melissa highlights how health impacts every other family value—from talking and bonding, to appreciating and prioritizing one another. Without the physical ability to engage, everything else becomes harder. Together, they remind listeners that choosing short-term sacrifice leads to long-term freedom—and that even small decisions today can keep you off the sidelines tomorrow. Chris also shares a powerful, raw perspective: as dads, are we strong enough to be “dangerous” in defense of our families? Not reckless, but capable. Strong enough to wrestle, hike, run, play, and even protect if needed. It's about being prepared to show up fully in every sense of the word. This episode isn't about six-pack abs or gym selfies. It's about creating energy, joy, and capability so you can fully participate in the lives of the people you love most. If you've ever felt tired, stretched thin, or sidelined, this conversation will challenge and inspire you to step back onto the field.   LINKS: 1. familybrand.com/quiz 2. familybrand.com/retreats.  All Links Family Brand!  stan.store/familybrand Episode Minute By Minute: 00:00 – Continuing the Girl Dad conversation from camp 01:30 – Chris's sad observation: dads on the sidelines 03:00 – Inspiration from an 80-year-old still wrestling with his grandkids 04:30 – Are you physically able to participate in your kids' lives? 05:30 – Disneyland story: when health limits parents' ability to join in 07:00 – Sacrifice vs. participation: health choices that pay dividends later 09:00 – A healthy person has a thousand wishes… an unhealthy person has just one 11:00 – Family Brand Academy and why health became a core family value 13:00 – Without health, every other family value gets harder 15:00 – Hard choices now = easier life later 16:00 – Chris on being “dangerous” enough to defend your family 18:00 – Health as energy: why it ripples into every area of life 19:30 – Fitness is the best free “drug” for your mood and spirituality 20:30 – Final encouragement: get back in the game for your family

It's breakup season on love, sex, and tarot for the whole month. Seriously, the cards are forecasting breakup/ divorces for the next couple weeks. It feels riskier but it's going to worth it The leaf reading focuses on the divorce (Leaf 00:09:57). We also talk a lot about STDs this week. All important information for struggling women. It's hard to instigate a breakup when you have so many memories. But they are with you only because of being pressured by family. I conclude with a discussion on male loneliness, but who cares about my opinion? Then we dive into our Virgo season horoscopes (00:38:22). Leave a review!

When we think about getting sober, most of the focus is on not drinking, but we don't think about what to start doing to actually rewire the brain and move forward. In this episode, I'll explain why white-knuckling doesn't work. You'll learn about why willpower is not the most important factor for staying sober, how being “strong” prevents us from getting support, and what you can do differently to make progress. It's not about convincing yourself of all the bad health effects of alcohol or powering through temptation, because if those things were effective long term strategies, then relapse rates wouldn't be so high. I will also discuss how taking on the label of an “alcoholic” is a barrier for many people that keeps us isolated and drinking.
