Podcasts about Struggle

On Monday's Mark Levin Show, what's happening in the West, and particularly the United States is an unprecedented form of self-sabotage or national suicide, where the greatest nation deliberately opened its borders, imported people from regions who refuse to assimilate, contribute, or integrate, and instead seek to destroy and conquer from within. This is not a hostile invasion, but a celebrated parade enabled by the Democrat Party, liberal groups in Europe and elsewhere, and secularists, and who believe in unrestricted openness. No society in ancient or modern history has survived such deliberate self-destruction, and the United States will not either. When Islam conquers lands, it imposes its faith and will without allowing diversity of viewpoints or beliefs, often eliminating opposition—including among Muslims themselves. This ideology has now significantly entered the United States, where a movement exploits Western values like free speech, freedom of assembly, religion, and due process to undermine and destroy them, while Sharia law in fundamentalist countries rejects these freedoms. Also, Iran poses a severe threat to future American generations, potentially acquiring nuclear warheads on ICBMs and vast ballistic missile capabilities if not confronted now. The regime is currently at its weakest point in 47 years, crippled by Israeli strikes that destroyed its air force, navy, radar, and Russian-supplied air defenses. Why are we negotiating with them? Later, Rep. Chris Smith calls in and strongly condemns the Hong Kong court's 20-year sentence imposed on 78-year-old Jimmy Lai. It's a horrific life sentence for a man of faith, conviction, legendary entrepreneur, and champion of free speech. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

There's a certain point in the microschool journey where dreaming turns into deciding. Where your heart for families meets the reality of tuition, payroll, enrollment systems, and leadership responsibility. And lately, inside Microschool Masterminds, the conversations have been real, raw, and deeply reflective. In this episode, I'm sharing what teachers and microschool leaders are actually wrestling with right now — the questions that don't always make it to social media, but live quietly in our heads as we lay foundations for sustainable schools. We talk openly about enrollment and the tension of raising tuition when families are already stretched thin, especially in nonprofit and faith-based microschool models. I share my own struggle with wanting to help everyone while also honoring the reality that even mission-driven schools must operate as healthy businesses — and why seeking sponsors, donors, and scholarships is not failure, but foresight. We also dive into nonprofit financial systems, including common questions around QuickBooks and Aplos, grant readiness, and why clarity matters more than choosing the “perfect” software. If you're building a microschool or homeschool hybrid and trying to get your finances organized for long-term growth, this conversation will resonate deeply. Another major theme in this episode is staffing and leadership — specifically navigating teacher contracts, renewals, and the uncomfortable realization that your school may be drifting away from its original vision. We explore whether that drift is a hiring issue, a clarity issue, or a documentation issue — and how leaders can lovingly course-correct without burning bridges. For those in their first year or preparing to launch, I also address foundational questions around first-year tuition, part-time teacher pay, prep days, hosting a microschool in your home, and how to stay realistic without losing your peace. One of the most important parts of this episode is a compassionate discussion around capacity, boundaries, and integrity — including how to lovingly and ethically communicate with families when you don't yet have the services to support certain learning needs. This is not about exclusion, but about honesty, sustainability, and doing what's best for children and leaders alike. We also briefly touch on compliance topics like background checks, spouses working in the school, and the importance of healthy systems — especially as more men step into education and leadership roles within microschool communities. If you're a teacher thinking about starting a microschool, a homeschool hybrid leader in the early years, or a seasoned founder trying to protect the heart of what you've built — this episode will remind you that you are not behind. You are building. And foundation seasons are meant to feel this way.----more---- Microschool Masterminds: skool.com/microschool-masterminds Every Thursday from 12-1 pm (EST), join Makenzie Oliver, microschool founder, VELA connector, and instructional coach, along with other founders, parents, and dreamers, as we connect, inspire, and progress through the challenges and celebrations of starting, running, and growing a microschool!

If your bright child avoids tasks or seems unmotivated, it's not laziness. Why smart kids struggle often comes down to a dysregulated nervous system and executive functioning challenges.

You know your child is capable of great things, yet the constant battles over homework, chores, or tasks leave you questioning yourself. Why are smart kids struggling so much, even when they have all the abilities to succeed? Understanding why smart kids struggle can transform your parenting approach and help your child thrive without shame, pressure, or frustration. By the end, you'll have actionable steps to support regulation, executive functioning, and motivation—so the “lazy” label finally makes sense.Why does my gifted child avoid starting tasks?Many parents of gifted children notice that their kids stall before beginning tasks. It's tempting to think they're unmotivated, but the truth is rooted in brain regulation.Underactive prefrontal cortex: Your child's brain may lack the “go” signal for planning and initiating.Overactive emotional center: They feel failure deeply, so avoidance feels safer.Low mental energy: Bright brains burn through energy quickly, leaving little for sustained effort.

Megan Shtab lost 165lbs and now works as a transformation coach helping women lose 50-100lbs! Her lightbulb moment happened at Disney World in 2018. Even at one of the most size-inclusive places on earth, she struggled. She had trouble getting in and out of rides, the lap bars didn't fit well, she needed constant walking breaks, and at one point, she took my shoes off in the middle of Epcot because her feet were so swollen. She felt embarrassed and defeated. But she also knew something had to change.

What if the bravest thing a man can do is ask for help? We open with a gut-punch story—kicked out at 17, sleeping in cars, forcing a smile—and follow the thread to a $20 lifeline, a cousin's spare room, and a lesson pride kept from landing: you don't have to carry it alone. Then Kenneth Ledale joins us. He's a Chicago artist, owner of Royalty Rugs, and co-founder of Tuft House, with years in Iraq and Afghanistan, a father who chose to become an artist so his kids could walk through doors already open. His take is raw and clear: admitting PTSD after years of silence didn't make him smaller; it made his life honest.We push past the clichés of “provider and protector” to ask why manhood leaves no room for slow days, questions, or therapy. Struggle gets treated like a trophy—trauma bonding in the military, “strong friend” culture in the city—until asking for help feels like surrender. We break that spell with practical tools: say no more often to protect your word, define your edge before you reach it, make explicit asks instead of testing people silently. Kenneth shows how Tuft House turns craft into community—an immersive rug-making experience that restores play, presence, and pride to a city that needs all three.There's more beneath the surface: why Black men distrust systems that label boys early and punish vulnerability; how safety talks with our sons steal innocence to save lives; and how legacy, control, and mortality twist our view of weakness. We share scripts for hard conversations, guardrails for relationships, and a reframing of tears as proof you've hit the limit of your current tools, not the limit of your strength. Along the way, we spotlight Rose Gold, our mentorship gala, and a giveaway: a custom rug and a Tuft House class to spark creativity and connection.If this conversation hits home, pass it forward—subscribe, rate, and leave a review.

The police siren is in use for this Friday episode following a Thursday 73 from Scottie Scheffler that left him visibly angry on PGA Tour Live! Andy and Brendan discuss an uncharacteristic over-par round from the World No. 1, as well as Brooks Koepka's tough day at a course he's won at in the past. Not everyone is on the struggle bus: Chris Gotterup has the first round lead with fellow young stars Pierceson Coody, Rasmus Neergaard-Petersen, and both Højgaards on his heels. In other PGA Tour news, they are once again starting up the "fifth major" debate around The Players Championship with a new promo that says "March Is Going To Be Major." Andy is ready for this weekend's Super Bowl after a week of hype in the Bay Area, but there's a brief preview of some events preceding next week's live show in Chicago. Somehow, this conversation ends with PJ challenging professional athletes to play him for an SGS season of "Pros vs. Joes." Patrick Reed could use someone to challenge him on the DP World Tour as he's once again right in the mix in Qatar. Brendan and Andy suggest any number of Euro stalwarts that could potentially become the "P Stopper" but it remains to be seen if anyone will step up. While Brooks is struggling in Phoenix, Smash GC is winning the team contest at LIV Riyadh, with some wondering if Talor "Sam Presti" Gooch has turned things around for good. The back half of this episode is dedicated to the PGA of America hiring Terry Clark as its new CEO, with Andy and Brendan both highlighting areas of need for the governing body now that it is under new leadership. Join us in Chicagoland for an SGS Live Show on Thursday, February 12! We'll be hanging out at SPACE in Evanston, Illinois for a night of Q&A, Champs Tour Minute, and plenty of Bears chatter.

The first biography of the revolutionary political prisoner who laid the foundation for contemporary abolitionist struggles and Black anarchism. A Continuous Struggle: The Revolutionary Life of Martin Sostre (AK Press, 2025) is a political biography of one of the most important revolutionary figures of the twentieth century in the United States. Martin Sostre (1923–2015) was a Black Puerto Rican from East Harlem who became a politicized prisoner and jailhouse lawyer, winning cases in the early 1960s that helped secure the constitutional rights of incarcerated people. He opened one of the country's first radical Black bookstores and was scapegoated and framed by police and the FBI following the Buffalo rebellion of 1967. He was sentenced by an all-white jury to thirty-one to forty-one years. Throughout his nine-year imprisonment, Sostre transformed himself and the revolutionary movements he was a part of, eventually identifying as a revolutionary anarchist and laying the foundation for contemporary Black anarchism. During that time, he engaged in principled resistance to strip frisks for which he was beaten eleven times, raising awareness about the routinized sexual assault of imprisoned people. The decade-long Free Martin Sostre movement was one of the greatest and most improbable defense campaign victories of the Black Power era, alongside those to liberate Angela Davis and Huey Newton. Although Sostre receded from public view after his release in 1976, he lived another four decades of committed struggle as a tenant organizer and youth mentor in New York and New Jersey. Throughout his long life, Martin Sostre was a jailhouse lawyer, revolutionary bookseller, yogi, mentor and teacher, anti-rape organizer, housing justice activist, and original political thinker. The variety of strategies he used and terrains on which he struggled emphasize the necessity and possibility of multi-faceted and continuous struggle against all forms of oppression in pursuit of an egalitarian society founded on the principles of “maximum human freedom, spirituality, and love.” Host: Michael Stauch is an associate professor of history at the University of Toledo and the author of Wildcat of the Streets: Detroit in the Age of Community Policing, published by the University of Pennsylvania Press in 2025.

Click here to book a free call with Sam to get help to overcome pornography – https://stopporn.info/    Have questions you want me to address on future podcast episodes? Email me here:  sam@healingcouples.org   Episode show notes: How can a wife ever feel secure again after pornography use? How do you know real change is happening—and that he won't fall back into old patterns? In this episode of the Couples Healing From Pornography Addiction podcast, we walk through four clear indicators that show when a man is doing the kind of work that actually prevents returning to pornography and helps rebuild emotional safety in a marriage. This conversation is designed for both wives and husbands. For wives, it speaks directly to the fear, anxiety, and lack of security that often linger long after discovery. For husbands, it offers concrete milestones to aim for—so change isn't vague, fragile, or dependent on willpower alone. You'll learn: Why transparency (not monitoring) helps calm anxiety and rebuild trust How remorse and emotional empathy restore connection after betrayal The specific skills men need to resolve urges at the root, manage stress, and work through shame Why consistent follow-through is what actually creates long-term security This episode reframes porn addiction recovery away from promises, streaks, and fear-based vigilance—and toward root cause healing, emotional capacity, and relational safety. If you're navigating porn in marriage, struggling with pornography triggers, or looking for a healthier approach to relapse prevention that actually works, this episode offers clarity, direction, and hope.

Please join us for a special film documentary screening of Epicenter:The Struggle for Black Studies in the Bay Area, followed by an intimate conversation with filmmaker Doug Harris, Douglas Harris Jr. and cast members.  The film examines the early student activism of the 1960s and 1970s, which brought the first Black studies departments to higher education in the entire country. The film is very timely, as African American studies programs at institutions of higher education are currently being targeted for closure around the country.  In chronological order, the documentary will feature segments about Merritt College (1966), San Francisco State (1968) and UC Berkeley (1970), as told by cast members of the film who were on the ground floor of the Bay Area struggles through protests, strikes and riots. The Bay Area stood at the forefront, taking the leap toward introducing the study of Black and other minority cultures that would eventually spread throughout the country.

Reclaiming Your Life - Listener Struggles In this episode of Join Up Dots, David reads two deeply honest listener letters from people who are doing everything "right" on the outside but quietly struggling on the inside. One is weighed down by constant financial pressure and the fear of falling behind, the other by a slow loss of identity after years of putting everyone else first. Through calm, grounded reflections, the episode explores why overwhelm isn't failure, why clarity matters more than ambition, and how regaining control often starts with small, unglamorous steps rather than dramatic change. It's a gentle reminder that joining up the dots isn't about rushing forward, but understanding where you are and giving yourself permission to breathe again.

Europe's illegal immigration crisis might be the warning America needs to fix its own before it's too late. According to Laura Ries, director of the border security and immigration center at The Heritage Foundation, America is “kind of on that same path” as countries like the France, Germany, and the U.K.  “The question is… Are we a sovereign nation? Do borders matter? Can we uphold the law? Can we enforce the law? What's happening to Western civilization? And this is a real question for our country.” Follow us on Instagram for EXCLUSIVE bonus content and the chance to be featured in our episodes: https://www.instagram.com/problematicwomen/   Connect with our hosts on socials!   Elise McCue X: https://x.com/intent/user?screen_name=EliseMcCue Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/elisemccueofficial/   Virginia Allen: X: https://x.com/intent/user?screen_name=Virginia_Allen5 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/virginiaallenofficial/   Check out Top News in 10, hosted by The Daily Signal's Tony Kinnett: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLjMHBev3NsoUpc2Pzfk0n89cXWBqQltHY Learn more about your ad choices.

A few years ago, Shabaz Ali was a chemistry teacher in Blackburn. Today, he's one of the internet's most beloved creators, best known as Shabaz Says, with millions of fans and a knack for skewering the most outrageous (and often tasteless) displays of online excess. Since quitting the day job, Shabaz has launched a podcast, performed at the Edinburgh Fringe and published his book I'm Rich, You're Poor. Beneath the humour though, there's always been something more serious at play: a sharp commentary on the psychological erosion that comes from spending too much of our lives online. In this episode, we talk about Shabaz's upbringing, being bullied at school, how his taxi-driver Dad didn't even realise his son was famous until recently and why no-one should ever spend £10,000 on an outfit. ✨ IN THIS EPISODE: 00:00 Introduction 03:03 The Impact of Social Media on Youth 05:14 Navigating Imposter Syndrome and Success 10:53 Embracing Authenticity and Overcoming Criticism 12:46 Growing Up in Blackburn 15:45 Challenges of Intersectional Identity 22:36 Family Perspectives and Cultural Expectations 24:04 Struggles with Poverty 25:20 Empathy 30:15 From Teacher to Social Media Star 31:24 Unexpected Career in the Hospital Morgue 33:38 Finding Viral Success Online 37:16 Representation and Finding Your Voice
