You Are Not Alone: How the Holy Spirit Guides Us – John 16In Episode 154 of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane continue their journey through the Gospel of John with John 16, where Jesus prepares His disciples for what life will look like after He leaves—and gives them an incredible promise: the Holy Spirit is coming.Jesus tells His disciples that the Spirit of Truth will guide them, teach them, reveal truth, and point them back to Him. What feels like Jesus leaving is actually the beginning of something new: God's presence dwelling within His people.Together, Jamie and Jane unpack what it practically means to be led by the Holy Spirit. How do we recognize His guidance? How do we distinguish His voice from our own thoughts, fears, and desires? And how can we trust His leading when we don't know what's coming next?John 16 also reminds us that following Jesus doesn't mean avoiding difficulty. Jesus tells His disciples plainly that trouble will come—but then gives them a promise we still desperately need today: “Take heart! I have overcome the world.”If you're facing a decision, walking through uncertainty, or simply longing to recognize God's voice more clearly, pull up a chair. You don't have to figure everything out on your own. The Holy Spirit is still guiding.Reflection Question: Where am I trying to figure everything out on my own instead of slowing down and allowing the Holy Spirit to guide me?____________________________________Connect with Jamie:Website: www.jamieklusacek.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacekConnect with Jane:Website: www.janewwilliams.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

What if the things that trigger you aren't simply problems to get rid of, but clues about what's happening beneath the surface? The situation that leaves you wondering, Why does this keep happening to me?In this episode of the InspirED Podcast, Andrea sits down with transformational speaker and corporate trainer Scott McKinley to explore how our triggers may reveal unconscious beliefs, interpretations, and habitual patterns that have been shaping our lives for years.Andrea and Scott explore how easily an old belief can become an interpretation, an interpretation can create an emotional response, and that response can influence our behavior before we've consciously examined what's actually happening.That's why Scott believes our triggers can become teachers.Because transformation doesn't happen once.It happens in the moment when the old reaction appears, and you recognize that you have another choice....CHAPTERS00:47 Introduction to Transformation and Change02:23 Scott's Journey to Coaching09:55 Understanding the Law of Attraction17:16 Recognizing Patterns and Triggers21:46 Building a Relationship with the Subconscious Mind26:35 The Illusion of Free Will and Automatic Thinking27:37 Neuroplasticity and Rewiring the Mind29:14 Triggers and the Power of Agency30:11 Accessing and Understanding Past Wounds33:13 Compassion and Self-Love as Foundations for Change36:15 Shifting Identities and Timelines41:16 The Observer Effect in Personal Growth47:21 Meditation as a Tool for Transformation49:57 Creating an Enlightened Society Through Self-Love51:20 Creating Your Own Reality52:07 Deep Dive Realignment VIP Day...RESOURCES ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠About Scott McKinleyTransformational speaker and corporate trainer who helps individuals, leaders, and organizations identify unconscious beliefs and habitual patterns through his Hidden Settings framework.Website Contact Scottcoachscottmckinley@gmail.comA Note About Concepts Discussed in This EpisodeThis conversation blends psychology-related concepts such as metacognition and neuroplasticity with spiritual and personal-development frameworks including the Law of Attraction, manifestation, “timeline shifting,” and the idea that thoughts create reality.

In today's episode, we continue our conversation about the implications of AI from an OD perspective. The challenge is that we're trying to make sense of a technology evolving so quickly that even the people creating it disagree about where it's taking us. Rather than pretending we know, we argue that embracing the not knowing may be exactly the right place to start. Not knowing can provoke curiosity, inquiry, and learning—the very things OD practitioners will need if we are going to help our organizations navigate what's ahead. The stakes are high. AI has the potential to fundamentally reshape how organizations operate, how work gets done, how performance is measured, and what leadership looks like. So how knowledgeable do we need to become—and where do we begin? We offer some practical first steps for moving beyond uncertainty: getting curious, asking better questions, experimenting, and educating ourselves about what AI is today and what it might become. We don't have the answers. But perhaps our willingness to enter the unknown is the first step toward finding them.

What happens when you stop trying to tell the polished version of your story and choose to tell the truth?For Soreya James, that choice became the foundation of Metamorphosis, a hybrid memoir shaped by her own experiences of crisis, transformation, and healing. After decades of guiding others through personal transformation, Soreya found herself becoming the student of her own life and realized that her story needed to be written.In this conversation with Danielle Hutchinson, Soreya opens up about the deeply personal experiences behind Metamorphosis and why vulnerability can make our message more relatable. She also shares how the book has grown beyond a traditional manuscript into a wider ecosystem that includes an online experience, an app, a card deck, retreats, and an eight-part TV series concept.Soreya also explains how she approaches writing differently today. Instead of focusing only on structure and formulas, she encourages writers to create space, listen inward, and trust the deeper message they want their work to carry.Key Takeaways:

Sanctification — being set apart, made holy, conformed to the image of Christ — is not a self-improvement project. It is the ongoing work of the Holy Spirit in the life of every believer, and 1 Thessalonians 5:23-24 makes the most encouraging promise imaginable: the One who calls you is faithful, and He will do it. Emily reminds us that our position in Christ is forever fixed — nothing can snatch us from His hand. But while we rest in the finished work of the cross, we are also called to partner with the Spirit through Scripture, prayer, service, and discipleship, allowing Him to renew our minds and gradually loosen the grip of worldly thinking and fleshly desire. The goal is not perfection this side of heaven — it is a life that, day by day and year by year, looks a little more like Jesus. Today's Bible Verse "May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through. May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. The one who calls you is faithful, and he will do it." — 1 Thessalonians 5:23-24, NIV Ponder Today Sanctification is God's work, not yours alone. You partner with the Holy Spirit in the process — but the deep, transforming work of making you holy belongs to the faithful God who called you. Rest in that. Your position in Christ is forever fixed. No failure, no stumble, and no season of spiritual dryness can change what Christ has already secured for you. Sanctification flows from that settled foundation — it does not establish it. Holiness grows gradually, not overnight. The goal is not perfection this side of heaven but a life that, day by day, looks increasingly like Jesus. Small, steady steps of obedience matter more than dramatic overnight transformations. Spiritual disciplines are how we partner with the Spirit. Bible study, prayer, serving others, discipleship, and evangelism are not how we earn God's favor — they are how we open ourselves to the mind-renewing, desire-transforming work of the Holy Spirit. The longer you walk with God, the less the world's pull satisfies. As your mind is renewed through His Word, worldly thinking and fleshly desires gradually lose their grip. That shift in desire is itself evidence of God's sanctifying work in you. A Prayer for You Today Father God, thank You for saving me, setting me free, and continually sanctifying me. I know that I fail every day, but I lean into Your grace all the more. Your grace is sufficient for each day and is such a gift in my life. You are a God who transforms and purifies — so help me renew my mind with Your Word, that I may know Your good, acceptable, and perfect will and see my life conformed more and more to the image of Your Son. In Jesus' name, Amen. Want More? Sign up for our free newsletter, The Good Word, for weekly biblical wisdom and encouragement delivered right to your inbox.

Michael Meade's new book explores how transformation is the way of the world, the mystery at the heart of each soul and possibly the only way out of the troubled times in which we live.The Heart of Transformation begins with the core idea that we keep finding ourselves in uncharted waters regarding the future of the planet and in unmapped territories in terms of human culture. Despite all the divisions, conflicts and betrayals, something essential in the story of the world is trying to be rediscovered again.Two stories are always happening at the same time. The drama of the world and the unique story of each soul trying to awaken. We may be but a tiny speck in an accidental universe, yet on another level, each soul is meaningful, valuable and a potential agent of creation.Re-creation and renewal of the world can be the most important framework for understanding and re-imagining the role of humanity in these troubled times. Right when it seems that the end is near, new designs and new possibilities can appear. The current battle for the soul of humanity also becomes a struggle for the soul of the world, and we each have a vital role to play.Michael Meade is a renowned storyteller and author who combines hypnotic storytelling, street-savvy perceptiveness, and spellbinding interpretations of ancient myths. He has a unique ability to tap ancestral sources of wisdom and connect them in illuminating and healing ways to the dilemmas we face and the stories we are living today.

This episode of Living Myth features a compelling and inspiring interview between Michael Meade and Robin Beck, the editor of The Artist of Possibility magazine, produced by Emergence Education. The conversation begins with the archetypal imagination of the eternal youth and wise old sage who dwell in each person's heart and soul and can be drawn upon in times of trouble and confusion.   Michael tells an ancient story in which the youth and the elders reimagine and redeem a culture that had lost essential values and that leads to a discussion of Michael's new book, The Heart of Transformation. Turning to the metamorphosis in which the lowly caterpillar transfigures into a free-flying butterfly, transformation is seen as the essence of nature and also as the calling of the individual human soul. From there, the conversation expands to the polarization of society, the dangers of Artificial Intelligence and the capacity of the human soul to awaken to a new world view and find ways to participate in a renewal of life on Earth.      Thank you for listening to and supporting Living Myth.

Nate Johnson grew up in Michigan, turned to the streets at a young age, and cycled in and out of juvenile detention and jail before a drug and robbery case sent him to Michigan state prison for 12 and a half years. But somewhere inside those walls, everything changed. He found his purpose, committed himself to rebuilding his life, and walked out determined to help others do the same. Today, Nate has built Michigan's largest reentry organization, co-founded the state's first reentry conference and a national reentry convening, and is now developing a "Reentry Ecosystem" aimed at changing how America approaches life after prison. _____________________________________________ Become an EXCLUSIVE Locked In: After Hours Member & receive a FREE merch box: https://lockedin.supportingcast.fm/ _____________________________________________ Connect with Nate Johnson: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nate-johnson-ncs Website: https://www.nextchapterssolutions.com/ _____________________________________________ Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://ianbick.com/ _____________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 A shooting on the street 00:26 Introducing Nate Johnson 00:54 Free merch and bonus content 01:44 Growing up in Muskegon 02:19 Dysfunctional family life 05:40 Trouble begins in fifth grade 08:41 Selling weed and stealing bikes 12:52 The crack trade and double-ups 20:24 Police raids and the setup 27:05 Arrest and false evidence 30:27 Returning home and family struggles 32:20 Connecting with dad over crack 34:11 Gang violence and losing Ted 37:27 Seeking revenge 38:30 Learning the drug trade 41:41 Armed robbery and prison sentence 45:27 The robbery detail and trial 47:50 Sentenced and to prison 49:26 First years inside 51:26 Reduced sentence and faith 56:17 Dad's warning and spiritual awakening 01:00:23 Transformation and purpose 01:04:50 Coming home and fresh start 01:06:53 Launching Re-entry United 01:09:40 Inside conferences and expansion 01:12:17 Next Chapter Solutions and tech 01:16:53 Housing and entrepreneurship 01:21:12 Impact and thankfulness 01:22:15 Navigating change in prison 01:25:52 Respect and authenticity 01:28:10 Fatherhood and affirmation 01:33:08 Parents' passing 01:37:52 Family and kids' names 01:46:48 Teaching life lessons to sons 01:49:47 Final thoughts and thanks _____________________________________________ To advertise on the show, contact sales@advertisecast.com or visit https://advertising.libsyn.com/LockedInWithIanBicka

Eight years ago, two women who had just gone alcohol-free pointed themselves at opposite walls of an apartment, clipped on lapel mics they could barely hear themselves through, and recorded the first episode of Euphoric the podcast. I couldn't have told you then what this show would become. 348 episodes later, I wanted to sit down and talk about what all of these conversations have actually taught me about transformation. Because when you've watched hundreds of women go from one version of themselves to another, patterns start to emerge, and they're not what most people expect. IN THIS EPISODE:  The cringe origin story of episode one, and why I'm grateful it exists What I've noticed about the guests who create the biggest shifts in the people listening Why being alcohol-free might make you the most powerful force in the room, and what happens when you're surrounded by other women who are too The neurological window that opens when you go alcohol-free and why most people don't know it's closing What Carl Jung's concept of individuation has to do with why some people feel truly fulfilled by their work and others don't Why the most fulfilling work on the planet might be the same work, no matter what industry you're in An honest reflection on a year that has been both the hardest and most clarifying of my career What's changing at Euphoric, and what's coming next

What happens when losing 125 pounds becomes only one part of a much bigger transformation?In this episode, Dr. John Barnes sits down with Pavitra Sinha, Design and Communications Consultant for Ideal Protein, to talk about her remarkable personal journey with weight, metabolic health, and Ideal Protein—and why her story is about so much more than becoming smaller.Growing up in India, Pavitra experienced a food culture often centered around carbohydrate-heavy meals, while also navigating the judgment and body-shaming that can accompany living with obesity. Like so many people who struggle with their weight, she wasn't lazy and she hadn't given up. She kept trying until she found an approach that worked for her.Through Ideal Protein and virtual coaching, Pavitra ultimately lost 125 pounds and experienced dramatic changes in her health. Her visceral fat dropped from 27 to 9, her blood sugar moved from prediabetic levels into the normal range, and her Grade 2 fatty liver eventually progressed to no detectable fatty liver. She has also maintained the vast majority of her weight loss for more than a year.But some of the most important changes can't be measured on a scale.Pavitra shares how she went from fearing food to understanding it, from experiencing white-coat anxiety to actively tracking and advocating for her own health, and from worrying about what her body might prevent her from doing to bungee jumping, zip-lining, attending concerts and saying yes to life again.We also talk about the part of transformation that doesn't get nearly enough attention: maintenance. Pavitra candidly discusses regaining approximately 12 pounds after Phase 1, what that taught her, and why ongoing education, coaching and support have been so important in preventing a small regain from becoming a return to where she started.Her journey has even changed the way she approaches her family's health. After discovering elevated hereditary Lp(a), Pavitra used that knowledge to encourage her sister to be tested and has become a much more confident advocate for herself and the people she loves.This conversation challenges the idea that weight struggles are evidence of laziness, lack of discipline or personal failure. It's a story about persistence, biology, education, support—and finally finding the right path.Pavitra lost 125 pounds. But what she gained may be even more important: freedom, confidence, knowledge, self-advocacy, and an entirely new relationship with her health.Because ultimately...It's Not About the Weight.

Christian Kirsch, Gründer und Geschäftsführer von PASSION4IT sowie Mitgründer von amaiko, spricht mit Norman Müller darüber, wie mittelständische Unternehmen KI unter Kostendruck sinnvoll einsetzen können. Im Mittelpunkt stehen konkrete Entlastung im Arbeitsalltag, der Umgang mit Unternehmenswissen und die Verantwortung der Geschäftsführung. An Beispielen aus seiner Beratungspraxis erklärt Christian, warum der Einstieg selten beim kompliziertesten Prozess beginnen sollte und weshalb gekaufte Lizenzen allein noch keine Veränderung bewirken.

Oder denken sie an ungelesene E-Mails, endlose Besprechungen und die Arbeit, die nach den Besprechungen erst beginnt?Christian Christian stellt diese Frage im Venture AI Podcast. Sie klingt zunächst nach Unternehmenskultur. Tatsächlich führt sie mitten in die Debatte über künstliche Intelligenz. Denn wer KI im Mittelstand einführen will, muss erklären können, was sich dadurch im Alltag verbessert. Für die Geschäftsführung. Für die Beschäftigten. Für die Kunden.Christian kennt diese Perspektiven als Gründer von PASSION4IT und Mitgründer von amaiko. Mit seinem Beratungshaus begleitet er Unternehmen bei der Digitalisierung. Mit amaiko entwickelt er selbst einen KI-Assistenten für den Arbeitsalltag. Er spricht deshalb aus praktischer Erfahrung und mit dem wirtschaftlichen Interesse eines Anbieters. Umso interessanter ist der Maßstab, den er an KI anlegt: Sie muss spürbar entlasten.Der Mittelstand braucht keine weitere Demonstration dessen, was eine Maschine theoretisch alles könnte. Er braucht einen nachvollziehbaren Weg von einer konkreten Belastung zu einer besseren Arbeitsweise.Die Opossum-Strategie führt nicht aus der KriseChristian beschreibt drei Reaktionen auf den technologischen Wandel. Manche Unternehmen handeln aus eigener Überzeugung. Andere reagieren, weil der Wettbewerber bereits etwas ausprobiert. Eine dritte Gruppe wartet darauf, dass die Gefahr vorbeizieht. In seinem Buch nennt er das die Opossum-Strategie: sich tot stellen und hoffen.Das Bild trifft einen empfindlichen Punkt. Wer über Jahrzehnte erfolgreich war, hat gute Gründe, seinen Rezepten zu vertrauen. Doch dieser Erfolg beantwortet nicht die Frage, ob dieselben Rezepte auch unter veränderten Bedingungen funktionieren. Neue Wettbewerber interessieren sich wenig dafür, wie lange ein Unternehmen seinen Markt bereits beherrscht.Christian spricht deshalb von kultivierter Unzufriedenheit. Auch das eigene Unternehmen müsse sich regelmäßig fragen, was sein Geschäftsmodell angreifbar macht. Diese Haltung ist keine Aufforderung zum permanenten Aktionismus. Sie verlangt, den bisherigen Erfolg zu prüfen, bevor der Markt es tut.Beim KI-Einsatz wird das sehr konkret. Unternehmen, die ihren Beschäftigten keine geeigneten Werkzeuge anbieten, verhindern damit nicht automatisch deren Nutzung. Christian berichtet von Menschen, die sich selbst behelfen und geschäftliche Unterlagen über private Anwendungen weiterreichen. Hinter solcher Schatten-KI kann der Wunsch stehen, die eigene Arbeit besser zu erledigen. Die Führungsaufgabe besteht darin, dafür einen geeigneten Rahmen zu schaffen: mit freigegebenen Lösungen, verständlichen Regeln und Ansprechpartnern.Der erste Nutzen liegt oft im ganz normalen BüroalltagDer nächste Fehler entsteht am anderen Ende der Skala: Ein Unternehmen entscheidet sich für KI und nimmt sich sofort seinen schwierigsten Prozess vor. Produktionsplanung, komplexe Systemlandschaften, über Jahre gewachsene Sonderfälle. Der Anspruch ist groß, die Voraussetzungen sind es häufig noch nicht.Christian empfiehlt einen Einstieg bei wiederkehrenden Aufgaben der Wissensarbeit. Informationen finden. E-Mails sortieren. Termine vorbereiten. Besprechungen nacharbeiten. Das klingt kleiner als die vollständige Automatisierung eines Geschäftsbereichs. Für die Menschen, die diese Aufgaben täglich erledigen, kann es trotzdem einen erheblichen Unterschied machen.So beschreibt er auch amaiko: als Assistenten, der Kontext aus dem Arbeitsalltag aufnimmt, auf Termine vorbereitet und bei wiederkehrenden Abläufen unterstützt. Die Idee entstand aus einer Erfahrung mit Wissenstransfer. In einem Kundenprojekt half sein Vater mit jahrzehntelanger Industrieerfahrung aus. Das funktionierte. Gleichzeitig stellte sich die Frage, wie dieses Wissen erhalten bleibt, wenn der erfahrene Mensch irgendwann nicht mehr mitarbeitet.Darin steckt ein größerer Punkt. Unternehmenswissen besteht aus mehr als Dokumenten. Es umfasst auch die Gründe für Entscheidungen, Erfahrungen mit Kunden und das Verständnis dafür, weshalb ein bestimmter Weg funktioniert. Dieses Wissen zugänglich zu machen, ist ein anspruchsvolles Ziel. Es lässt sich nicht durch das bloße Sammeln von Dateien erreichen.Christian berichtet, dass ihn sein eigener Assistent täglich um ein bis zwei Stunden entlaste. Das ist seine persönliche Erfahrung in einem dafür geeigneten Arbeitsalltag, keine allgemeine Produktivitätsgarantie. Für andere Unternehmen muss sich der Nutzen an ihren eigenen Aufgaben zeigen. Werden Nacharbeiten kürzer? Finden Beschäftigte Informationen schneller? Entsteht tatsächlich mehr Zeit für Kunden, Entscheidungen und Zusammenarbeit?Eine Lizenz ersetzt keine FührungsentscheidungEin besonders vertrautes Muster schildert Christian beim Einkauf von KI-Lizenzen. Ein Unternehmen stattet seine Mitarbeitenden aus und betrachtet die Einführung damit als erledigt. Anschließend verändert sich an den Arbeitsweisen wenig.Das Problem liegt bereits in der Erwartung. Der Kauf schafft Zugang zu einer Technologie. Damit ist noch nicht geklärt, wofür sie eingesetzt werden soll, welche Informationen sie verwenden darf und wer ihre Ergebnisse beurteilt. Ebenso wenig ist geklärt, wie Menschen lernen, mit ihr sinnvoll zu arbeiten.Deshalb gehört die Geschäftsführung für Christian an den Tisch. Zusammen mit IT, Personalverantwortlichen und Menschen aus den Fachbereichen, die die tatsächlichen Abläufe kennen. Das müssen nicht immer die jeweiligen Abteilungsleitungen sein. Entscheidend ist, wer weiß, wo Arbeit liegen bleibt, Informationen fehlen oder Aufgaben doppelt erledigt werden.Aus dieser Bestandsaufnahme kann eine sinnvolle Reihenfolge entstehen. Zunächst die Grundlagen für den konkreten Anwendungsfall schaffen. Dann passende Unterstützung im Alltag einführen. Danach die spezielleren Anforderungen einzelner Bereiche bearbeiten. Eine Vertriebsaufgabe braucht andere Informationen und Kontrollen als ein Personalprozess.Auch die Datenbasis bleibt entscheidend. Christian beschreibt Unternehmen, bei denen wichtige Dokumente noch auf einem Speicher unter dem Schreibtisch liegen. Hier kann zunächst die Ordnung der digitalen Zusammenarbeit notwendig sein. In anderen Fällen macht der erste KI-Einsatz vorhandene Lücken überhaupt sichtbar. Beides gehört zur Einführung. Ein Assistent übernimmt keine Verantwortung dafür, ob die Organisation ihre eigenen Informationen beherrscht.Dranbleiben gehört zur EinführungDer dritte Fehler folgt häufig auf den ersten Versuch: Die Ergebnisse enttäuschen, also wird das ganze Thema wieder beiseitegelegt. Christian warnt vor diesem frühen Aufgeben. Neue Arbeitsweisen brauchen Übung, Rückmeldungen und Korrekturen. Auch die Verbindung mit bestehenden Systemen gelingt nicht immer auf Anhieb.Das ist kein Freibrief für endlose Pilotprojekte. Unternehmen sollten festlegen, woran sie einen Fortschritt erkennen und welche Probleme noch offen sind. Ein zweiter Versuch ist sinnvoll, wenn aus dem ersten etwas gelernt wurde. Einfach weiter Lizenzen zu bezahlen, ohne Nutzung und Ergebnis zu hinterfragen, wäre das Gegenteil.Wie wertvoll der Austausch darüber sein kann, zeigt der Ausblick auf das AI-Cluster Niederbayern. Christian beschreibt die geplante Initiative mit dem Bundesverband als Ort für persönliche Treffen, konkrete Anwendungsfälle und Erfahrungen aus der Umsetzung. Unternehmen sollen voneinander lernen können, welche Schritte funktionieren und wo Schwierigkeiten auftreten.Am Ende führt das Gespräch zurück zum Montagmorgen. Bessere KI sollte Raum schaffen für das, was Menschen in einer Organisation beitragen: Empathie, Kreativität, Zusammenarbeit und gute Entscheidungen. Christian verbindet den technischen Fortschritt deshalb mit dem Anspruch, auch im menschlichen Miteinander besser zu werden.Für Geschäftsführungen ist das eine brauchbare Prüffrage: Welche Arbeit wird durch KI tatsächlich besser, und was machen wir mit dem gewonnenen Spielraum? Wer darauf eine konkrete Antwort findet, hat mehr erreicht als mit der nächsten beeindruckenden Vorführung.Mehr KI mit Substanz.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. US bureau chief Jacob Magid joins host Jessica Steinberg for today's episode. A Board of Peace official notes to Magid at the United Nations General Assembly that the organization envisions a de-radicalized Gaza as part of a broader end to war, suggesting that a similar transformation needs to happen in Israel as well, given talk amongst politicians of different stripes encouraging Palestinians to leave Gaza, a euphemism for forced displacement. As the Board of Peace unveils a six-month, $2.45 billion reconstruction plan for the Gaza Strip, Magid says that BOP's discussions with Israel have been complex given the upcoming election and work won't begin until well after the October 27 election, although they will exert pressure to begin implementing the plans. With the Norwegian government advancing legislation to outlaw trade with Israeli settlements, Magid reports on his interview with Norwegian Foreign Minister Espen Barth Eide, who says that Norway is trying to balance interests and doesn't want to boycott all of Israel. Finally, Magid discusses the ongoing confusion about the lack of a uniform response from the US regarding the UK-led settlement sanctions, as Israel wants a US reaction. He notes that US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee offered a fiery response but US Secretary of State Marco Rubio's office didn't issue the same statement, leaving US President Donald Trump with a more apathetic reaction while at the recent United Nations General Assembly.

This week I'm speaking with Giovanni Giamminola about using AI to strengthen (not surrende) human judgment.Giovanni explains the difference between cognitive offloading and cognitive surrender, why AI fluency can create false confidence, and how cognitive governance helps organizations decide when people should lead the reasoning and when AI can productively support it.WHAT YOU'LL LEARN• The distinction between delegating a task to AI and delegating your thinking.• Why fluent, confident AI output still requires human evaluation.• The four AI work postures: exploratory, generative, critical, and operating.• How “System Zero” creates a deliberate pause before a decision is made.• Why job redesign should focus on decision ownership, not just automation.• How L&D teams can move beyond tool training and build real cognitive capability.• The difference between model risk and cognitive risk.• Why leaders need participation—not merely sponsorship—to lead AI adoption.• How AI can give people more room for relationships, trust, values, and judgment.Giovanni Giamminola is an AI transformation strategist focused on the human and organizational side of AI adoption. His work explores cognitive governance, decision-making, and how leaders and learning teams can build the capabilities needed to work thoughtfully with AI.

Janay spent years identifying as an Enneagram Seven. Energetic, joyful, the person who carries the room. And then motherhood, of all things, gave her fewer places to hide from who she actually was.This is a live, unpolished, real-time conversation, and that's exactly the point.You'll hear about:What it felt like to live inside the Seven story for years, and why it fit well enough to stayThe moment in a park with a friend when a single question stopped Janay in her tracks and lit up a million lightbulbsWhy Janay resisted the Four because it felt too messy, too unsafe, too much like everything she'd been told not to beHow motherhood didn't turn her into someone new; it just gave her fewer places to hide from who she already wasThe childhood message of not too much, not too little, and how it shaped decades of showing up as someone slightly less than fully herselfSitting in the car with sleeping kids and a Fleetwood Mac song, and finally saying out loud that sounds like a FourThe freedom of dropping the shame script and learning to sit with emotion instead of running from itWhat she told the Lord before she was willing to put on the shoes of a Four, and what shifted when He answeredYou were never being fake.

Episode #1194 This is a revisit of an important TPM conversation for men who feel stuck, stagnant, or unsure what comes next. You've built the career. You've handled the responsibilities. You've checked many of the boxes you thought would create fulfillment. But somewhere along the way, you lost some of your energy, passion, or sense of direction. In this revisit episode of The TPM Show, Doug Holt sits down with Erin Holt to explore what it looks like when a man knows he's capable of more but isn't taking action toward it, and what that experience can be like for the woman beside him. Erin shares why a difficult season itself isn't the problem. Everyone goes through periods of uncertainty, transition, and change. The bigger issue is staying there without taking responsibility for moving forward. From a woman's perspective, watching her husband lose his energy and motivation can be exhausting and painful. She may know there's more inside him while watching him choose not to access it. Over time, she may begin taking on more leadership and responsibility within the family simply because someone has to. Doug and Erin also discuss why purpose doesn't always need to be one permanent mission you discover and follow forever. Sometimes you've simply outgrown the way you've been living. The first step isn't necessarily finding a new purpose. It may be rediscovering yourself.

Shelley Boland is Global Head Real Estate and Corporate Services at Standard Chartered where she is passionate about shaping enterprise strategy and corporate operations across international markets while transforming how global workforces connect by balancing commercial efficiency, future-of-work innovation, leveraging supply chain and strong risk discipline. Mike Petrusky asks Shelley why she believes that workplace and facility management leaders can create value when they treat their function as a strategic platform for talent, brand, culture, transformation, and growth, not simply as a cost center. Shelley says that every square foot should have a clear purpose, supported by portfolio optimization, data-informed decisions, and deliberately designed experiences that blend workplace design, hospitality, services, and technology. To lead effectively, FM professionals should strengthen their business acumen, understand their organization's strategy and customers, and learn from peers, industry groups, and external partners rather than trying to solve everything alone. Authentic, people-first leadership builds trust and helps global teams navigate change, so Mike and Shelley offer the practical advice and inspiration you need to be a Workplace Innovator in your organization!

You can know your attachment style, understand your personality, read all the books, and still find yourself reacting in the same old ways. Why? Because information is not the same as transformation. In this conversation, Dr. Carol and author and licensed therapist Dr. Alison Cook explore what it takes to move psychological and spiritual insights from your head into the deeper places of your soul. They talk about secure attachment, why no human being can provide the fullness of security our souls need, and why true security begins with an inner attachment to God. The conversation introduces the idea of an "inner family"—the responsible controller, the wounded shadow, and the vulnerable young one—and offers a compassionate way to respond when these different parts of us become activated. Rather than suppressing or shaming those reactions, we can see them as bids for connection. The simple practice of "recognize and return" helps us notice what is happening inside without judgment, and then return to the truth that we are loved by God right in the middle of it. Over time, this kind of practice can retrain our souls toward greater security, integration, and genuine transformation.

What if your business isn't something you own, but something God has entrusted you to steward? In this second conversation with Chad Everett, Co-Founder and CEO of Purpose Factory, we explore what it means for business owners and marketplace leaders to see their work as ministry. Chad and Leo discuss the freedom that comes from exchanging ownership for stewardship, why faith and business were never meant to be compartmentalized, and how success changes when the focus shifts from controlling outcomes to faithfully stewarding what God has entrusted to us. They also explore a much bigger definition of legacy, one that includes not only financial wealth, but marriages, children, employees, influence, character, and faith. And for church leaders, the conversation offers a practical challenge: rather than seeing successful business leaders primarily for their financial capacity, intentionally disciple and equip them to become ministers in the places God has already called them to serve.Key Takeaways Stewardship is a lifestyle, not simply a financial practice. Business leaders are stewarding their companies, influence, families, personal development, abilities, and resources.The shift from owner to steward can bring tremendous freedom. The business belongs to God; the leader's responsibility is faithfulness with what has been entrusted to them.Stewards aren't responsible for producing the outcome. Their responsibility is to faithfully “plant and water” while trusting God with the growth.Business can be a genuine expression of ministry. Marketplace leaders have opportunities to be salt and light among employees, customers, vendors, and communities that church staff may never reach.Churches don't need to pull business leaders out of the marketplace to put them into ministry. They can equip and release them to minister where God has already planted them.Compartmentalizing faith and work creates a fragmented life. Discipleship helps leaders become the same followers of Jesus on Monday that they are on Sunday.Legacy is much bigger than inheritance. A faithful legacy includes the character, wisdom, faith, relationships, and spiritual influence passed to children, employees, and others.Financial success alone is an incomplete measure of success. Chad's story of a billionaire who would trade almost all his wealth for Chad's family life illustrates the importance of recognizing what is truly valuable.Churches should not build business-leader ministries as a strategy for increasing giving. Business leaders will recognize the wrong motive. The purpose should be to serve, disciple, and equip them.Effective ministry to business leaders requires leaders who understand their world and can create trusted communities where they can honestly discuss the pressures and challenges they face.Transformation happens from the inside out—beginning with a leader's relationship with God and extending into marriages, families, businesses, and relationships.Community matters. Business leaders need relationships with people who understand the unique pressures of leadership and provide a safe place to be known.For churches considering this kind of ministry, Chad recommends beginning with prayer, identifying the right leader within the congregation, and then taking the next faithful step.ResourcesConnect with Chad Everett on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/chad-s-everett/Email Chad - chad@purposefactory.coLearn about Purpose Factory Remnant - purposefactory.co/remnantBecome a CSN member - https://membership.christianstewardshipnetwork.com/Learn about the Christian Stewardship Network - https://www.christianstewardshipnetwork.com/Are you a pastor or church leader?At Christian Stewardship Network, we are passionate about teaching the biblical perspective on finances so that you can teach your church with authority, confidence, and integrity.

Notes Matthew 21:33-46 Exodus 20:1-4, 7-9, 12-20 In this episode of the Pulpit Fiction Podcast, hosts Eric Fistler and Rob McCoy delve into the parable of the wicked tenants from Matthew 21. They explore the implications of the parable in the context of Jewish leadership and the rejection of prophets, emphasizing the need for accountability and the importance of producing good fruits in ministry. The conversation highlights the role of empathy and transformation in addressing issues of injustice and the call for churches to reflect on their impact in the community. The episode also touches on the significance of stewardship and the responsibility of congregations to care for the least of these. In this episode, Eric Fistler and Robb McCoy delve into the themes of worship, the significance of the Ten Commandments, and the relevance of the Sabbath in contemporary life. They explore the importance of benedictions in worship, the need for a holistic understanding of the commandments, and the implications of misusing God's name. The conversation emphasizes the commandments' role in fostering community and justice, while also challenging listeners to examine their priorities and the cultural relevance of these ancient laws.

When's the last time you attended an event that stayed with you long after you left the room?   Maybe it wasn't the impressive venue, packed agenda, or big-name speaker you remembered. It was how you felt. You felt seen, safe, connected, and able to think differently about your business or life.   Creating this kind of transformation doesn't happen by accident.   In this Mastering Excellence conversation, Nikki welcomes business revenue strategist and Reach Retreat founder Danielle Throckmorton to explore how thoughtful planning turns an event into an experience people remember.   You learn how to start with the outcome you want to create, design around the needs of your attendees, and make intentional choices that allow people to be fully present for the experience. The Transformation Before listening, you may find yourself: Starting with the venue, speakers, or agenda instead of the attendee. Packing the schedule because more content feels like more value. Making event decisions based on what other successful hosts are doing. Focusing on logistics without considering how each choice affects the attendee experience. After listening, you learn how to: Reverse engineer a retreat around the transformation you want to create. Design an environment where attendees feel safe, seen, and supported. Create space for connection and reflection alongside the curriculum. Make intentional choices about who and what belongs in the experience. Key Takeaways In this episode, Nikki and Danielle discuss: Why Danielle started by creating the retreat she wished existed. How applications and pre-event conversations reveal what attendees actually need. Why safety, environment, food, downtime, and thoughtful details all contribute to the experience. The importance of qualified facilitators when deeper emotional work is involved. Why Danielle chooses educators based on attendee needs rather than name recognition. How connection before and after a retreat extends the value beyond the event itself. Start With the Transformation and Work Backwards Danielle's approach begins with a simple question: Why are we doing this?   Before choosing the venue, filling the agenda, or deciding who speaks, she considers what attendees need to walk away with.   From there, she reverse engineers the experience.   The environment, curriculum, educators, food, downtime, and details all support this intended outcome. Create What You Wish Existed Danielle's retreats grew from her own experience as an entrepreneur.   After attending a conference with thousands of women, she appreciated the inspiration but wanted something deeper. She wanted to ask questions, have honest conversations, and learn alongside other women without feeling like everyone needed to perform.   This led her to ask: What do I wish existed?   Rather than recreating someone else's version of a successful event, Danielle began designing the kind of room she wanted to experience herself. Safety Creates Space for Transformation Danielle intentionally considers what attendees need in order to feel safe enough to fully participate.   This includes understanding who belongs in the room, asking thoughtful questions before the retreat, creating a natural flow throughout the experience, and bringing in qualified professionals when deeper emotional work is involved.   Safety also means knowing when something falls outside your own expertise.   The goal is to create an environment where attendees have the capacity to be present for what unfolds. Don't Firehose Your Attendees Providing value doesn't require filling every available minute.   Nikki and Danielle discuss how easy it is to pack an agenda because you want attendees to feel they received enough for their investment.   Danielle intentionally leaves room for slower mornings, conversations over coffee, free time, and organic connection.   Sometimes the transformation happens during the curriculum. Sometimes it happens sitting on the couch talking with another attendee.   A thoughtfully designed retreat makes room for both. Let Attendee Needs Guide the Experience Danielle doesn't select educators because their names sell tickets.   She reviews attendee questionnaires for common needs, challenges, and themes, then brings in people equipped to address what this particular group needs.   She also creates opportunities for attendees to connect before arriving and stay connected after leaving.   This approach keeps the experience centered on the people in the room rather than what's popular or expected. Details Allow People to Be Present Food preferences. Packing information. Comfortable spaces. Time to rest. Knowing someone has thought about what you may need.   These details contribute to the experience.   Danielle's goal is to remove unnecessary distractions so attendees can show up and receive without constantly managing logistics.   The details aren't about impressing people. They're about creating the conditions for people to be present. A Quote Worth Remembering "Start with the end in mind and reverse engineer from there." Try This This Week When you're planning a retreat, workshop, mastermind, client day, or live event, resist the urge to begin with the agenda.   Instead, answer: What do I want someone to walk away thinking, feeling, knowing, or doing differently because they were in this experience?   Then look at what you're planning through this lens.   Does each major element support this outcome? Who This Episode Is For This episode is especially valuable when you: Are planning a retreat, workshop, mastermind, or in-person client experience. Want your event to create transformation instead of simply delivering information. Tend to overfill agendas because you want to provide tremendous value. Want attendees to feel seen, supported, and connected. Are deciding which speakers or educators belong in your event. Want to create an experience people remember and want to return to.

Daniel Sterling was on skis at three and racing by eight — and he spent the next sixteen years chasing ski-racing glory until the joy was gone and his whole identity had collapsed into one thing: the fast guy. When he retired at 24, burned out with no education and no prospects, he kept chasing the next shiny thing — broadcasting, Hollywood, five screenplays — all the way to the bottom.Then a mentor shook his hand, looked straight through him, listened to his polished family story, and asked the question that started everything: "That all sounds great. Why are you so miserable?"This is a conversation about what happens when your identity is wrapped up in one pursuit — and who you get to become when it's gone. Daniel and Robin get into coping by disappearing, the slow work of learning to say the hard thing out loud, and the practice that reshaped his life: asking of everything that lands on him, is this mine, or is it someone else's?We talk about:— Why an identity built on winning is a tenuous place to stand— Praising a child's effort instead of their talent — and how it quietly dissolves perfectionism— The "hot seat," emotional withdrawal, and what it costs to stay silent— Personal accountability: "I am responsible for everything" — and being your own advocate when someone tries to unload on you— The difference between being nice and being kind— Open loops — the unmade decisions, the unhad conversations, the promises to ourselves — and why they weigh on usA conversation about coming to know yourself so well that the patterns that don't serve you no longer have a hold on you.Daniel is the author of the forthcoming memoir Hungry.MORE FROM DANIEL STERLING"Shared Space" SubstackYouTube & Instagram — Daniel Sterling Writer Got a loop you need to close?

Transformation begins when we choose not to live for ourselves and choose to live for Jesus. When we have a true assessment of ourselves based on Scripture and realize that we have been given the honor to serve others, transformation takes place and "It is no longer I who lives, but Christ lives in me. " Galatians 2:20 By Dave Bartlett

Three reasons why Christians must no longer live like Gentile pagans, who are darkened in their minds, and depraved in their hearts, alienated from God, and greedy to practice every kind of impurity. I. Because Christians have come to know Christ, v20-21. II. Because Christians have put off their old self, v22. III. Because Christians have put on the new self, v24. IV. How can we do this? Keep being renewed by God in the spirit of your minds, v23.  

Transformation begins when we stop drifting toward what's familiar and start deliberately pursuing what's true.
