Episode #135 - In this episode of the Awakened Heart Podcast, I speak with spiritual coach and energy healer Liz Kerrigan about her powerful path into trauma-informed healing, plant medicine integration, and reclaiming truth in a noisy world.Liz shares how she helps high-functioning individuals release limiting patterns and reconnect with their authentic selves through modalities like breathwork, Reiki, spiritual coaching, and shamanic ceremony.We explore the role of plant medicine in spiritual awakening, common misconceptions about microdosing, and the importance of integration after ceremony. Liz also opens up about the balance of divine feminine and masculine energy, the importance of personal sovereignty, and how true healing begins with self-compassion and surrender.This is a deep, grounded, and soul-nourishing conversation for anyone seeking clarity, courage, and connection in their healing journey.TakeawaysLiz's journey into spiritual coaching began with her own healing journey.Plant medicine can accelerate healing and provide insights.Integration after plant medicine ceremonies is crucial for lasting change.Self-compassion is a key ingredient in the healing process.Personal sovereignty involves knowing and trusting oneself.The balance of divine feminine and masculine energies is essential for well-being.Surrendering can be a powerful act of strength.Everyone has the ability to connect with their true self.Loving all parts of ourselves is necessary for true self-acceptance.Awakening the heart involves embracing self-love and compassion.Sound bites"I was on my own healing journey.""Surrender is real strength.""An awakened heart means self-love."Connect with Liz:WebsiteLet's Connect!⁠⁠Website⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠ ⁠Facebook⁠⁠Youtube⁠⁠Rumble⁠⁠⁠Tik Tok⁠⁠⁠Linkedin⁠⁠Linktree⁠PodcastFREE Meditaion GuideKeywordsspiritual coaching, plant medicine, divine feminine, divine masculine, self-compassion, personal sovereignty, healing journey, energy work, microdosing, Reiki

In this episode, Samuel Goulet explores the contrast between modern culture's focus on personal desire and the enduring biblical call to self-denial and obedience to God. He emphasizes that true Christian living is rooted in surrendering personal will to God's eternal ways, rather than shaping faith around individual preferences or consumerism. Drawing from scripture, Goulet discusses how identity, relationships, and even church practices should be defined by God's will, not self-fulfillment, and encourages listeners to apply these principles in marriage, family, and daily life. The episode concludes with a call to prayer, inviting the audience to consecrate their relationships and resources to God, seeking humility, grace, and a deeper walk of faith. [Document 4 | Word]

Jesus offers rest for our anxious hearts. We are called to be prayerful stewards of our lives. Daily battles with control are part of the Christian journey.

What does it look like to pray when you're out of control? And what happens when desperation becomes the doorway to deeper trust? This week on The Cutting Room Floor, Neil sits down with Matt Williams to unpack what didn't make it into Sunday's sermon on desperation and prayer. From hospital rooms to unanswered prayers, they talk honestly about what it means to depend on God when control slips through your fingers. The conversation moves from the Garden of Gethsemane to everyday life, parenting, grief, career changes, and reframes prayer as relational, not transactional. It's a reminder that surrender isn't weakness; it's training for trust.   The challenge: As you step into a new year, don't just ask what you want to add. Ask what God is inviting you to lay down. Where might surrender make room for deeper dependence? Hosts: Neil Gregory & Matt Williams What We Discuss Why desperation often reveals what we truly depend on Standalone sermons and the pressure of closing out the year Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane as our model for prayer Prayer as relational rather than transactional How honesty and tears can become prayers Parenting, prayer, and reflecting the heart of the Father What it means to pray "Your will be done" when outcomes hurt The difference between hope and expectation Surrendering good things to say yes to better ones ⸻ About Southland Christian Church Southland is one church meeting in multiple locations across central Kentucky. We believe Jesus came for the lost and the broken, which means there's a place for everyone here. Around here, that means we worship defiantly, speak truth unashamedly, and extend grace generously.

What if the universe has been leaving you breadcrumbs all along, and you've been too busy planning to notice them?Host, Dr. Katie Deming shares how she completely transformed her approach to life after her shared death experience and leaving Western medicine. Instead of forcing goals and pushing through obstacles, she now follows signs and synchronicities that appear in her daily life. She explains the difference between these two concepts and why paying attention to them opens up possibilities you could never plan for yourself. Through personal stories that range from broken laptops to missing keys, she shows how even frustrating moments might be protecting you from something you can't see yet.The heart of the conversation centers on a remarkable story involving a Rolex watch, a midnight intuition, and a dating app Dr. Katie swore she'd never use. What unfolded demonstrates how following seemingly illogical guidance can lead to connections and openings that feel almost magical. Chapters:00:04:10 - Stop Forcing the Plan00:07:02 - Closing a Cycle, Opening a New One00:14:30 - Her Midnight Nudge00:24:30 - When Life Delays You for a Reason00:32:44 - Surrender to What Is, Then Follow the SignsDr. Katie also gets vulnerable about recent losses in her business and personal life, revealing how she's learned to recognize when it's time to let go rather than get dragged through the gravel trying to hold on.Dr. Katie explains how this approach applies directly to healing, particularly when you're faced with a diagnosis that feels like it's derailing your plans.Listen and Learn how to understand why following signs requires patience, how to avoid getting attached to outcomes, and what happens when you trust that the magic ahead is better than anything you could orchestrate yourself.Access the FREE Water Fasting Masterclass Now: https://www.katiedeming.com/the-healing-power-of-fasting/ Transform your hydration with the system that delivers filtered, mineralized, and structured water all in one.

Surrendering something to God is not always easy when we are holding on too tight. It can take bravery and trust to let Him move things out that don't belong.

In this episode, we talk about goal weights, why we get attached to them, and how to shift from chasing a number to pursuing peace, sustainability, and trust with God instead.

Today's episode is the final part of our Best Lessons of the Year series, and it's dedicated to the part of you that's exhausted trying to figure it all out… because some seasons don't come with clean answers (rude). In this episode, we talk about surrendering the outcome—not in a giving up kind of way, but in a coming back to life as it is kind of way. You'll hear a powerful perspective from Dr. Tasha Faruqui on living in the gray when even science doesn't have the answers. And then I'll walk you through practical "anchors for your energy"—small, doable supports you can return to when you're depleted, overwhelmed, or stuck living for "after." If you've been telling yourself, "Once things calm down, then I'll breathe," this is your gentle reminder: you don't have to wait for life to be fully resolved to feel a moment of peace. In this episode, we talk about: Why "after" can drive survival-mode What it means to surrender control without surrendering hope How uncertainty can drain your energy (and how to reclaim it) Choosing joy intentionally (without forcing toxic positivity) Anchors for your energy: small practices that stabilize you during turbulence Quotes to remember: "Some seasons don't come with clean answers." "Surrendering the outcome doesn't mean surrendering your hope." "Joy often doesn't arrive… it's something we pursue." "Burnout isn't a symptom of failure. It's a symptom of fatigue." Key takeaways: Surrender = reclaiming energy you were spending trying to control what you can't. Joy can be a practice, not a mood you wait for. Anchors create stability in turbulence—pick one kind thing and return to it. A "one-degree shift" today can change how you land later. Your gentle invitation for the week: Pick one anchor: a walk outside, a one-minute pause, water before coffee, a phone boundary, or one brave little no. Try it. Keep it kind. Let it count.

 All religions are based on lies.But what happens if we skip the lies — and simply surrender to God?Life suddenly becomes wonderful. It begins to make sense.Science shows us something similar: after just five years, 95% of scientific “truths” turn out to be wrong or incomplete.Politics? Built on lies and false assumptions — which almost never come true.Our personal lives? Often shaped by illusions and deceptions.Even the Bible reminds us: the world is an illusion.So why do we assume religion must always hold truth?There is no hell, no heaven, no moksha, no nirvana, no past lives, no karma.Or as Buddha put it: karma is indescribable.The Tao — or God — that you can describe is not truly the Tao, nor truly God.The Modern Replacement for GodToday, people have replaced God with the smartphone.The results are clear:The rise of destructive ideologies like NazismGenerations marked by unhappinessRecord-high suicide ratesWidespread drug addictionThe disappearance of true loveThe AlternativeWhat if we skipped the phone — and replaced it with God?What if we skipped the lies — and chose truth instead?What if we cared for each other — instead of caring for a device?Then our world would blossom.My Video:  Skipping the Lies and Surrendering to God  https://youtu.be/GcxM0hw91VwMy Audio: https://divinesuccess.net/wp-content/uploads/2021/Podcast5/Skipping-the-Lies-and-Surrendering-to-God.mp3

In this episode, we end our journey at the Stable, the humble place where God chose for us to meet His Son. We reflect on the stable of our own hearts, how Jesus chooses to meet us in our own poverty now, and why His very presence brings healing. We also talk about how when we sit in our emptiness, release control, and surrender each part of our lives to God, He is able to work more powerfully in our lives. Finally, we ponder Mary's quiet and loving gaze upon the Christ Child and how we are invited to slow down and notice Jesus smiling back at us.  Friends, we've deeply enjoyed journeying with you this year. As we take a break, please know you are in our prayers. We will see you on January 19th, 2026 when Season 18 begins!

What are the scandalous places within me that I want to keep away from the Lord? How am I managing my own creativity rather than welcoming the Holy Spirit into my creativity? What beliefs am I carrying deeply about God? How does God want to heal these beliefs? Where am I afraid? How can I make space for Jesus and spend time with Him in this Christmas season?   Discussion Questions: How are you tempted to sanitize the Mystery of the Incarnation in your own life? Where in my life do I need a new perspective? When have you experienced God coming to you in a way you weren't expecting Him to? How am I seeking control in this season? How can I surrender that control? What are the stables of my life that God is inviting me into deeper surrender?   Quote to Ponder: "I am so glad Jesus was born in a stable, because my soul is so much like a stable. It's poor and in unsatisfactory condition - Yet, I believe that if Jesus can be born in a stable, maybe he can be born in me." (Dorothy Day)   Scripture for Lectio: "In those days a decree went out from Emperor Augustus that all the world should be registered. This was the first registration and was taken while Quirinius was governor of Syria. All went to their own towns to be registered. Joseph also went from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to Judea, to the city of David called Bethlehem, because he was descended from the house and family of David. He went to be registered with Mary, to whom he was engaged and who was expecting a child. While they were there, the time came for her to deliver her child. And she gave birth to her firstborn son and wrapped him in bands of cloth, and laid him in a manger, because there was no place for them in the inn." (Luke 2:1-7)   Sponsor - Fully Mediterranean: Our sponsor today is Fully Mediterranean, a company dedicated to helping people discover the Mediterranean diet and lifestyle, a way of eating and living that is both deeply nourishing and beautifully simple. At Fully Mediterranean, they believe that good health and good food go hand in hand—and that both of these begin in the same place: around the table, where we slow down, gather, connect, and are reminded of God's goodness in the everyday moments of life. It's where we feed not only our bodies, but also our relationships. And it's often where we rediscover joy, connection, and presence. Fully Mediterranean was built on a mission to help people discover a simple, nourishing way of eating and living—a way that brings peace, beauty, and balance into everyday. Their approach is not about pressure or perfection. It's about gently integrating habits that help you live fully, with a sense of gratitude and mindfulness that aligns beautifully with our Catholic faith. What makes the Mediterranean lifestyle so special is that it's not just a way of eating; it's a way of living. It's a lifestyle shaped by mindfulness, by community, and by gratitude. It's about slowing down, savoring what God provides, and sharing meals with the people He places in our lives. It's about choosing foods that nourish the body He entrusted to us—vibrant  vegetables, wholesome grains, fresh herbs, lean proteins, and healthy fats—while also embracing the joy and connection that come from preparing and enjoying meals with others. Fully Mediterranean provides practical, realistic tools, guidance, and inspiration to help you bring these values into your kitchen and everyday life. Through recipes, programs, workshops, and practical nutrition guidance, we help women simplify healthy eating, feel confident in the kitchen, and rediscover the joy that comes from preparing meals that are both good for the body and soul-satisfying. In a world filled with noise, pressure, and quick fixes, the Mediterranean lifestyle offers something gentler and more grounded—an invitation to live intentionally, joyfully, and wholeheartedly. It encourages us to choose foods that honor the bodies God created, to gather more often with the people we love, and to find celebration in simple, nourishing routines. Whether you're looking to support your long-term health, gain energy for your daily responsibilities, or create more meaningful rhythms in your home, Fully Mediterranean is here to guide you every step of the way. We want to help you build a lifestyle that supports your well-being and draws you closer to living the full, abundant life God desires for you.  Because at Fully Mediterranean, we believe that when you nourish your body well, you nourish every part of your life. And when you gather at the table with gratitude, intention, and love, you reflect God's goodness in the most natural, beautiful way. If you're ready to bring more peace, health, and joy into your kitchen—and your life—we invite you to explore all that Fully Mediterranean offers.

How we can respond like Mary with surrender and faith, even when life challenges our understanding or comfort?Key Lessons: God's announcements can be surprising and may challenge us to trust Him even when we don't understand. Mary's story illustrates the personal cost of obedience, including surrendering one's reputation. True peace comes from a relationship with God, and we are called to be peacemakers in today's noisy world. We should make room for Jesus in our lives and schedules, especially during the busyness of the holiday season.

In this episode, I sit down with Jessica Kriegel, a culture strategist, speaker, and former Chief Scientist of Workplace Culture at Culture Partners. Jessica has spent years studying what actually drives performance inside organizations, and she brings research backed clarity to a topic most leaders still struggle to operationalize. Together, we break down why culture is not a soft concept, but the single most powerful lever leaders have to drive results, including up to four times revenue growth when purpose, strategy, and culture are fully aligned. Jessica shares a practical framework for turning culture into a business system, not a poster on the wall. We unpack why most culture efforts fail, how beliefs shape behavior more than processes ever will, and what leaders must stop doing if they want real accountability. This conversation is grounded, actionable, and designed for leaders who want measurable outcomes, not motivational fluff. Key takeaways: Culture is how people think and act to get results, not a list of values or perks Companies with full alignment between purpose, strategy, and culture grow four times faster than those without it Clarity beats complexity when defining purpose and direction Beliefs drive behavior more than policies, processes, or procedures True accountability is a personal choice, not a blame mechanism Most organizations spend the majority of their time below the line in blame and excuses Recognition, storytelling, and feedback are the fastest ways to shape beliefs Surrendering control creates stronger commitment and better long term results Leaders cannot force alignment, but they can design experiences that invite it This episode is for CEOs, founders, executives, people leaders, and anyone responsible for driving performance through other people. If you are frustrated that your culture initiatives are not translating into results, or if you feel like you are managing compliance instead of commitment, this conversation will change how you lead. You will walk away with simple language, a clear framework, and specific actions you can apply immediately to build a culture that actually drives growth. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

This is The Energy to Heal, your resource for all things Splankna, the faith-based inner healing modality that will help you achieve emotional freedom. In this episode, Laura Milliken unpacks one of the most subtle but destructive belief systems in modern Christianity: the performance-based gospel. Laura explains how many believers unknowingly relate to God as employees instead of sons and daughters—striving, proving, and exhausting themselves in an attempt to earn intimacy that was already given. Through the lens of Splankna, identity work, and Scripture, she reveals how this mindset leads to emotional burnout, anxiety, shame, and spiritual disconnection. This episode invites listeners to confront false beliefs about grace, surrender self-sufficiency, and rediscover what it means to live from Christ instead of for Christ. Laura walks through how understanding your identity in Christ is foundational for emotional freedom, inner healing, and lasting transformation. If you've ever felt spiritually tired, pressured to "do more," or afraid you're not measuring up—this conversation is for you. ✨ Key Takeaways A performance-based gospel leads to spiritual burnout and emotional exhaustion Many Christians confuse spiritual disciplines with spiritual worth Grace is not permission—it is empowerment Emotional freedom begins with understanding your identity in Christ Your spiritual life was never meant to be fueled by effort, but by intimacy Surrendering to grace requires letting go of control and outcomes Sonship produces rest, confidence, and security—not anxiety Your identity in Christ is unchanging, even when your behavior fluctuates Living in grace exposes perfectionism and self-sufficiency The journey of learning grace is ongoing and deeply liberating

Welcome to our new season on the show! For my return listeners you might have noticed the break we took between our last season. I wanted to drop in with a solo episode and talk about why I took a short pause…which the title might say it all. So we are back at it, the show of course continues…we had a little pause in releasing episodes over the last months, as some really big things have been happening and well… I might as well come out and say it. I AM PREGNANT!  It is such a blessing and I am overjoyed to share this news to you. Altho ugh this episode isn't just for that. I wanted this episode to be valuable and actually share how I got here. I mean some might think…well we know how you got here, but actually there is much more to it than that. So I'm going to get personal and share things that I feel can be helpful for anyone either on the journey of fertility and wanting to have a family or anyone that is struggling to conceive. First I must say, I have such compassion for those that have struggled, just through this process I have become utterly grateful and blessed for our journey and I'm aware for many it has been a struggle and emotional rollercoaster.  So my hope is that by what I share today it can provide some hope, confidence and the knowledge of the steps you can take to possibly help your outcome. In this episode I discuss: Becoming pregnant and how I got here What I did to prepare my body The exact supplements I took The lifestyle changes I made Surrendering to God in this journey Timeline to prepare For full show notes and episode resources head to: https://ericalippy.com/im-pregnant-at-45/ Watch episode on YouTube Episode mentions:  Download full 'Holistic guide to preparing for pregnancy' HERE  Download 'My Intentional Year' HERE Erica Lippy | Website  Follow me on Social Media: Listen on YouTube Your Host: @ericalippy Podcast: @passionlovepursuit PASSION LOVE PURSUIT PODCASTS: https://ericalippy.com/the-podcast/

In this powerful podcast episode, we dive deep into the reliability of the Gospels and the significance of Jesus' genealogy as presented by Matthew. Join us as we explore the concept of the "criterion of embarrassment" and how it highlights the authenticity of the Gospel accounts. We discuss the fascinating stories of scandalous figures like Rahab and Tamar, who are included in Jesus' lineage, and what this reveals about God's grace and mercy. The episode emphasizes that Jesus does not shy away from dysfunction; instead, He embraces it, showing that everyone, regardless of their past, is a candidate for His love and redemption. As we reflect on our own labels and the burdens we carry, we encourage listeners to consider what labels they have accepted and how they can begin to surrender them to experience the freedom that comes from a relationship with Jesus. Key Topics: -The reliability of the Gospels -The criterion of embarrassment -The significance of Jesus' genealogy -Embracing dysfunction and grace -Surrendering labels and finding freedom ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ We are an alternative to church as usual. Our Sunday worship service is approximately a 75-minute experience designed to introduce people to the message of Jesus and equip believers to live their lives in response to the Gospel while their kids enjoy one of our safe children's environments. Centerpoint is designed to meet you wherever you are on the journey whether you are just checking out the "church thing" or you are a committed Christ follower. Centerpoint is a casual environment that combines today's music with creative media and relevant teaching. We hope you will visit us at Centerpoint Church regardless of what your past church experience has looked like.

In this powerful co-hosted episode with Jessica Young, we step into a deeply personal season of surrender and unpack what surrendering truly means on an individual level. From releasing control to embracing uncertainty, we explore how surrender shows up differently for each of us and why it's often one of the hardest yet most transformative parts of personal growth.Together, we openly discuss the emotions that surface when we surrender—fear, grief, relief, peace, resistance, and hope—and how these feelings can coexist during seasons of change. This conversation also dives into the level of trust required to surrender, whether that trust is in yourself, in others, in divine timing, or in the unknown.If you're navigating a season of letting go, healing, or spiritual and emotional growth, this episode offers honest reflection, vulnerability, and reassurance that surrender isn't weakness—it's an act of courage and self-trust.✨ Stay Connected with Shots of Serenity ✨Thank you so much for tuning in!

The Importance and Power of God’s Word The Word of God is essential and powerful. Begotten by the Word. Reconciles us. Jesus is the good Word. The Bible can save souls, get people out of trouble, and change their thinking and actions. If it doesn’t change you, your salvation should be questioned. Matthew 11:2-6 – John’s Question John, in prison, questions if Jesus is the Messiah. Sends disciples to ask Jesus, “Art thou he that should come, or do we look for another?” Everything that happened in Jesus’s ministry got people’s attention. Brought them to a place where they wanted to find out more. Many were in trouble and needed help. God was able to supply that help like no one else. The message of Jesus is still being broadcast throughout the world. Information travels quickly today. The Word of God is still being proclaimed. Surrendering to God’s Will People often try to control everything, preventing God from demonstrating His love and power. It’s necessary to surrender to God’s will. God accomplishes good in those who yield to His Spirit. The most important thing is to see souls saved. Testimony and Faith Sharing testimonies releases the power of God. The Hebrew word for testimony means “to tell what God has done.” Sharing what God has done releases the same power that was present in the original event. God can move again as He did in the beginning. Never give up on sharing what God has done in your life. God came to save the lost. John’s Example John’s life got worse, but he will rejoice in heaven for fulfilling his purpose. Preparing the way of the Lord. We should weigh our lives to determine if our actions bring glory to God or are just for personal satisfaction. The world can lead in many directions that don’t glorify God. Children of God should focus on seeing others come to Christ. The Active Word of God The Word of God is alive and active. Hebrews 4:12. Not a genie in a bottle, but the Word of Faith, God Almighty. John had doubts, even though he knew Jesus from the womb. It’s okay to question and wonder. John’s beheading may seem like a loss, but it was a godly life. He stepped aside and said, “Not my will, but thy will.” John had the testimony from the beginning: “I must decrease, and he must increase.” He lived it out. The Power and Reach of God’s Word The Word of God is real, powerful, and accomplishes its task. It hits the target. Defeats the enemy. Impacts the hearts of men. Nothing can interfere with the Word of God. Preaching in jail shares the message that “who the Son sets free is free indeed.” God loves those with life sentences. Have mercy on all people, as God has had mercy on you. God can turn anyone back to Him if they call on His name. God Hears and Reveals God always hears prayers and complaints. Worldly desires can become enslaving. God questions the motivations behind accumulating things. John’s life was about God’s business. John called out a man for his sin and was imprisoned. People will do anything to stay in their sin. Only Jesus can fix oneself. Jesus’s Response to John Jesus told John’s disciples to “go and show John again.” Show him the miracles and works being done. The blind receive sight, the lame walk, lepers are cleansed, the dead are raised, and the poor have the gospel preached. It’s still Jesus, and nothing has changed. The gospel is that Christ came, was crucified, buried, and rose again. The greatest event is to be arrested by the Holy Ghost and cry out for Jesus. The Great Commission Five principles based on loving God and loving your neighbor. Worship: Love the Lord with all your heart. Born-again people worship God freely. Question your salvation if you can’t worship God. Ministry: Love your neighbor as yourself. Everyone is called to be a minister in some way. Evangelism: Go make disciples. Share your testimony. Fellowship: Baptize men in His name. Become part of the body of Christ. Discipleship: Teaching the Word of God. Tell of God’s exploits. Ephatha – Open Ephatha means “open” in Arabic. Pray that God opens the hearts of the lost to receive the Word. Looking for an eternal house in heaven, whose builder and maker is God.

As we navigate the often overwhelming demands of daily life, particularly during pressure-filled seasons, I emphasize the importance of transitioning from a state of panic to one of presence and acceptance. This meditation serves as an invitation to slow down, embrace the stillness, and return to our natural state of calm.I begin by encouraging you to create a quiet space where you can comfortably situate yourself, whether that be sitting, lying down, or cocooned in your favorite blanket. It's essential to allow your body to feel supported and to grant yourself the permission to disengage from the burdens of your day. As we settle in, I emphasize the first steps of the practice—taking deep, conscious breaths, and noticing the weight of your body in its current state. Each breath serves as a reminder that it is perfectly okay to simply be, without the incessant need to do or achieve.Throughout the meditation, I guide you to release the tension often held in our bodies by inviting you to visualize letting go of tight grips and pressures. As we explore the concept of surrendering, I introduce the metaphor of holding a rope tightly, symbolizing the strain of managing our stressors. By loosening our grip, we create space for tranquility and self-acceptance. I encourage you to bring to mind an aspect of your life that feels heavy or stressful, emphasizing that this practice is not about fixing or solving problems, but rather about acknowledging and softening around them without resistance.#anxiety #mentalhealth #meditation #mindfulness #selfcare #stress #wellness #calm #healing #breathwork #relax #peace #yoga #mentalhealthmatters #anxietyrelief #guidedmeditation #anxietycoachespodcast #ginaryan #panicattackrelief #nervoussystemregulation #surrender #acceptance #justbe #holidaystress #overwhelm #mindfulmoments #stressrelief #mentalwellness #meditationpractice #grounding #emotionalhealth #anxietysupport #slowdown #presentmoment #ACPSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Surrendering is a tough concept. Only with God is it a safe bet because He is good and His intentions toward are always for our best. The flip side of surrender is trust. Giving God what we treasure is trusting God with the vulnerability of our hearts. His best for us is often seen in the tears of letting go of those things and people who mean the most to us. He knows you. He will never give you less than His best.Daylight Meditations is a daily podcast from CFO North America.

As 2025 comes to a close, I'm not winding down - I'm winding up. In this episode I share why this has been the year I've felt deeply gratified and truly rich inside myself, and why I refuse to end the year in disappointment, resignation, or “next year will be better” energy. I also announce The Golden Mile 2025 → 2026 Immersion:  a special 2 month 1:1 immersion that can only be purchased in December. This immersion is designed to walk you through the final stretch of 2025 and across the threshold into 2026 in miracle frequency, deep satisfaction, and anchored leadership. Inside the episode, I speak from my own embodiment about: The creative potency of December & January and why I choose to end the year feeling profoundly gratified, not regretful The role of pressure and tension in the creative cycle and how holding it (without collapsing into fear) births new timelines Three doorways of The Golden Mile Immersion: The Miracle Breakthrough Doorway - for those who haven't yet experienced the miracle they've been walking toward The Wisdom & Leadership Harvest Doorway - for those who know their leadership has a “use by” date in its current form and are ready to bring the wealth of their wisdom into the world in new ways The Spirit Embodied Identity Doorway – for those who know they are here to anoint the world with love and live as a pure channel of their spirit Why some miracles don't look like what our human wanted, including the story of my son's passing and the awakening that followed If you feel the potency of this season and you know you're capable of so much more – not because you're “not enough”, but because of the enormity of your heart, your wisdom and your devotion to love – the Golden Mile may be for you.

What if surrender isn't something you do at all? In this episode, Thom reframes surrender and “letting go” through the Vedic lens, not as effort, but as the spontaneous movement of the mind toward greater charm.With vivid metaphors from Guru Deva, monkeys, and even jelly beans, Thom reveals how true surrender happens naturally when the mind is free of stress and guided by charm.Listen as Thom explains how Vedic Meditation trains us to release unnecessary tenacity and experience surrender as a state of freedom, not struggle.Episode Highlights[00:45] Can You Surrender the Surrendering?[03:33] Pre-approving Movement of the Mind[07:06] Effortless Movement Towards Charm[09:38] Vedic Meditation: The Training Ground for the Removal of Unnecessary Tenacity[12:46] Q - What's the relationship between retrospective surrender and letting go?[12:56] Monkeys That Don't Let Go[15:34] Don't be Like the Monkeys[17:43] The Capacity to See the Future in the Making[22:06] Close Your Eyes and Stay AwakeUseful Linksinfo@thomknoles.com https://thomknoles.com/https://www.instagram.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.facebook.com/thethomknoleshttps://www.youtube.com/c/thomknoleshttps://thomknoles.com/ask-thom-anything/

Summary If the holidays leave you feeling overstimulated, snappy, or totally wiped out, you're not alone. Between family dynamics, endless to-do lists, travel, sugar, alcohol, and expectations from every direction, your nervous system is under a lot of pressure this time of year. In this episode, Ali breaks down what's actually happening in your body during holiday stress and why people-pleasing, overcommitting, and "pushing through" keep you stuck in survival mode. You'll learn practical tools to stay regulated in the middle of family gatherings, set gentle emotional boundaries, recover after overstimulating events, and support your hormones through the season. If you want to move through the holidays feeling more grounded, present, and at peace (without burning yourself out for everyone else), this episode is for you. Takeaways There's nothing wrong with you if you feel anxious during the holidays. The holiday season can be a perfect storm of stressors. Many women learn to stay agreeable to feel safe and connected. This learned behavior can lead to exhaustion and resentment in adulthood. The nervous system needs safety and space to calm down. You can't force your nervous system to relax; it must happen naturally. The snow globe metaphor illustrates the overwhelm many feel. Surrendering to your feelings is essential for emotional health. Self-care is crucial during stressful times like the holidays. Understanding childhood conditioning can help in managing adult stress. Sound bites "The season is a perfect storm of stressors." "Staying agreeable kept you safe and connected." "You can't just tell yourself to calm down."

Join Sandra for a profound and deeply healing conversation with author, spiritual medium, and former psychotherapist Tammy Lee Anderson. Tammy's extraordinary life has been shaped by not one, but three near-death experiences—beginning in infancy—which ignited a lifelong journey to understand the true nature of love and consciousness. In this episode, Tammy shares the vivid memories of her NDEs, including the overwhelming feeling of returning "home" to a place of peace and unconditional love. She discusses her diverse and fascinating path, which includes earning a 5th-degree black belt in Aikido, working as a hospital chaplain, and spending over a decade living in monastic communities, where she earned the playful nickname "The Flying Nun." Tammy opens up about her unique gifts, including her rare ability to create "Spirit Drawings"—sketching portraits of loved ones in spirit with guidance from the other side. She also shares wisdom from her 40 years as a healer, offering powerful insights on how suffering can be a doorway to deeper love and expansion, and why she believes we are here to "turn our grief into gratitude." This is a must-watch for anyone seeking hope, healing, and a deeper understanding of the soul's journey.
