Letting God's light shine as we live in this dark world can be pretty difficult. As we follow Jesus in a world that doesn't, we will face opposition. So we need a thick skin if we are going to do what God calls us to do. But we also need a loving heart toward people. Love moved Jesus to do what He did for us, and it is love for people that will move us to live out our purpose. This rare combination of a thick skin and tender heart was seen in the life of the Apostle Paul. As we look at this letter he wrote, from prison, to the people of Philippi, we can see his loving heart as he prays with joy because of these people who came to know and love Jesus. May God also make our skin thick and our hearts tender!Support the show

Dr. Katelyn Jetelina joins us at the fifth anniversary of the newsletter she has spearheaded,Your Local Epidemiologist (YLE). “An incredibly wild ride,” YLE reaches 370,000 subscribers, while social media accounts reach 700,000. To cross the political divide, we need to listen more, be more selective in the choice of words. The YLE operation now includes a team of 15 managing the newsletter, podcasts, speaking engagements, and social media—and trusted messengers. She's joined Dean Megan Ranney at the Yale School of Public Health focused on social listening and upgrading communications. Two months plus into the Trump second term, have we rebounded back to mistakes and abuses allegedly committed during Covid-19? It has become a “proxy war” of multiple societal battles and “pandemic revisionism.” Is there a path out of this widening polarization? Perhaps, but “we're going to have to move backward in order to move forward.” Secretary RFK Jr.'s ideas on chronic diseases are promising; it remains to be seen how far he can go, and how progress there measures up against what damage is imposed on vaccines. Her biggest worry? Erosion of the public health workforce.

Hi listeners! Sarina here, with a topic that has been on my mind for years. When I began my career, everyone told me I had to develop a “thick skin” to do this job. But it turns out that a “thick skin” is one of the only things you can't buy on Amazon. Today I invite my friend Lauren Blakely onto the podcast for a frank discussion of all that we've learned about resilience, one-star ratings and feedback these past ten years or so. Together, we offer the beginnings of a handy framework for how to think about feedback. We offer some actionable advice for what to do, where to turn and how to process unsolicited criticism. You do not have to attend every conversation you're invited to. - A wise stranger on the interwebs.Since avoiding negative feedback just isn't feasible, we discuss the following coping mechanisms. * Checking in with a friend and having friends in the business* How to make sure that good feedback is as available and memorable as the bad* Recognizing that clinging to negatives is how the brain works. That reflex has an important evolutionary role, but we don't have to subjugate ourselves to it.* Lifting up other people as soulcraftWhere to find Lauren Blakely: Ms. Blakely is the author of multiple bestsellers. For a master class in how to package genre fiction, you'll definitely want a peek at her backlist.Find more from Lauren at Instagram! What we are reading:Lauren is loving the forthcoming Shoot Your Shot by Lexi LaFleur. It's a hockey romance.Sarina is loving The Notebook: A History of Thinking on Paper by Roland Allen, which tickles her geeky, paper-loving heart. This is a public episode.

You Need To Have Thick Skin Hello, this is Hall T. Martin with the Startup Funding Espresso -- your daily shot of startup funding and investing. In the fundraising process, the startup founder will hear ‘no' many times from investors. For the founder, this can be painful as the startup is their baby. Investors will say ‘no' often and in many different ways. Some articulate it in words while others demonstrate it in their actions. The founder needs to have a thick skin because not everyone will get it. Consider these points when hearing a no: Never take the investor feedback personally -- it's business. After each interaction, ask yourself why the investor said no. Look at the pitch from their point of view. It's often the case the investment doesn't fit their criteria or thesis. Some investors have finished their funds and cannot take on any more investments. Other investors don't understand the space or how that part of the industry works. Still, others are unsure of the technology behind the startup and want to see more proof. Each interaction with an investor provides a lesson to learn. Having a thick skin helps.   Thank you for joining us for the Startup Funding Espresso where we help startups and investors connect for funding. Let's go startup something today. _______________________________________________________ For more episodes from Investor Connect, please visit the site at:   Check out our other podcasts here:   For Investors check out:   For Startups check out:   For eGuides check out:   For upcoming Events, check out    For Feedback please contact info@tencapital.group    Please , share, and leave a review.

They say it's necessary to have thick skin; for Fatima, the expression is especially true. Having battled a lifetime of severe eczema, this young mother has tried everything to fight her way through debilitating discomfort. After finding a topical steroid that seemed to cure all, Fatima shares with us the devastating side effects she experienced coming off of it. For her, shedding her skin also meant shedding light on the all-too-real Topical Steroid Withdrawal (TSW).

Welcome back to The Level Up Podcast! I'm your host, Paul Alex, and today, we're discussing one of the most crucial traits for every entrepreneur—developing thick skin. In the world of business, rejection, criticism, and setbacks are guaranteed. The difference between those who succeed and those who quit often comes down to one thing: resilience. Let's break down why thick skin is essential for achieving your goals and pushing through challenges.Key Takeaways:Rejection is Part of the Journey: Thick skin allows you to handle “no” as feedback, not failure, and keep moving forward.Criticism Fuels Growth: Learn from what matters, filter out the noise, and use criticism to improve your game.Resilience Commands Respect: Standing strong through adversity builds your reputation and earns respect from others.Stay True to Your Vision: With thick skin, you're less influenced by outside noise and more focused on your mission.In business, resilience is essential. Build that thick skin, stay focused, and as always, let's level up.“Your Network is your NETWORTH!”Make sure to add me on all SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMS:Instagram: https://jo.my/paulalex2024Facebook: https://jo.my/fbpaulalex2024Youtube: https://jo.my/ytpaulalex2024Linkedin: https://jo.my/inpaulalex2024Looking for a secondary source of income or want to become an entrepreneur?Check out one of my companies below to see if we can help you:www.ATMTogether.comwww.CashSwipe.comFREE Copy of my book “Blue to Digital Gold - The New American Dream”www.officialPaulAlex.com

Prior to the role, she was nationally and internationally recognized for her work on Arctic and Indigenous issues.

Do we ACTUALLY need thick skins? Is that healthy? Or is it going against the grain of how God designed humans to FEEL? For years, I've wished I had a thick skin. Then had sooo much judgment for myself when I didn't. I think maybe lots of people struggle to let mean comments roll off them like water on a ducks back because maybe it's not natural for that to happen. Maybe that's not what we are supposed to do? Tune in to today's episode to hear me share about this freeing concept. This is for you if you've ever felt bad about NOT having a thick skin!

What's up, basketball trainers? In our podcast episode today, I had a great conversation with Justin Wakefield, a basketball trainer and educator, where we explored a range of topics related to coaching and player development. We discussed the importance of having thick skin as an educator, effective techniques for teaching players of all ages, the ideal training schedule, and the concept of "your body is your level" in basketball. We even reflected on our experiences in industries like sales and hardwood flooring and how those lessons have influenced our coaching styles. The conversation also touched on key themes like time management in training, using basketball as a tool for growth beyond the game, the importance of relationships and networking in the basketball community, and the different cultures of the sport in various markets. And towards the end, we emphasized the value of showing love, being a good person in the industry, and staying true to yourself through perseverance while building a successful training business. 00:00 Introduction and Thick Skin in Education04:02 Effective Techniques for Teaching Basketball10:12 The Ideal Training Schedule12:24 Playing Off the Ball in Basketball15:26 Your Body is Your Level in Basketball19:10 Exploring Different Industries and Gaining Perspective24:20 Efficiency and Time Management in Basketball Training25:19 Using Basketball as a Tool for Building26:04 Building Relationships and Networking in the Basketball Community31:23 Understanding Different Basketball Cultures in Different Markets37:25 Showing Love and Being a Good Person in the Industry43:14 Perseverance and Staying True to Oneself in the Basketball Training Business Overall, it was a deep, honest conversation about what it takes to be successful in basketball training and beyond.

Join us for a candid discussion on the delicate balance of developing thick skin while maintaining healthy boundaries. As leaders, we often encounter tough challenges that test our resilience, but it's equally important to recognize when thick skin crosses into tolerating mistreatment. In this episode, we explore the necessity of standing firm on our expectations for how we're treated in our professional spaces. If you're ready to draw a line in the sand and reclaim your professional dignity, this conversation is for you. Let's navigate the path to confidence and resilience while honoring our right to be treated with fairness and kindness.
