In this episode of The Greatness Machine, Darius sits down with Andre Norman, author, speaker, and transformational leader whose journey from maximum-security prison to Harvard University is nothing short of extraordinary.

What if the very emotions you've been trying to escape are the key to your spiritual awakening, your manifestation power, and your deepest soul purpose? Today's episode challenges the entire “high-vibe only” culture in modern spirituality. Our guest, David Strickel, creator of the Tya Practice (Trust Your Abundance), says we've been trying to skip the most transformative part of consciousness work: the shadow, the grief, the anger, the frustration...those “low-vibe” frequencies we love to avoid. Instead of bypassing them, he teaches us how to leverage low vibration as fuel, how to turn trauma into clarity, and how to raise our default frequency by wrestling the dragon instead of pretending it's not there.Inside This Brave Conversation You'll learn: Why avoiding “low-vibration emotions” prevents true spiritual growthHow manifestation fails when you activate the vibration of need instead of creationThe difference between acceptance, surrender, and authentic appreciationHow trauma and adversity expand consciousness instead of limiting itWhy abundance starts in early childhood belief systemsThe real reason “positive thinking” stops working And yes, we talk about how to stop bypassing, how to dismantle victimhood without shame, and how to do the work without losing yourself.Most Mind-Bending Takeaways:

In today's dynamic episode, Reagan Kramer interviews Lane Boyce, a passionate young evangelist who shares her transformative journey of faith. Lane recounts her struggles with identity, depression, and the powerful moment of her encounter with Jesus that changed her life. Layne discusses how her life was filled with counterfeits until she experienced God's love, which led to a desire for change. Through repentance, Layne describes supernatural changes in her behavior, including clearing up confusion with sexual identity, the removal of cursing and desires for substances, all facilitated by the Holy Spirit. She also tells of her experience sharing Jesus in Salem, Massachusetts and how even witches and those following occult practices are searching for Jesus.  Her testimony highlights the power of faith and the possibility of new life through spiritual awakening.The discussion delves into the importance of living a lifestyle of evangelism using our authority in Christ and the urgency of sharing the gospel in today's world, and the experiences of spiritual warfare during outreach efforts. Lane emphasizes the significance of intimacy with Jesus as the source of strength and boldness in sharing her faith and that Jesus has a great purpose for all people and desires no one should perish.

Matt and Chris open December by encouraging listeners to use the month not for drastic health changes but for honest reflection, stillness, and envisioning where they want to be by 2026. They discuss how constant busyness, stress, and survival-mode thinking prevent people from dreaming, planning, and believing that meaningful change is possible. Instead of reacting or relying on quick fixes, they advocate slowing down, creating space for stillness, and identifying what one truly wants for their health—less inflammation, better sleep, reduced stress, greater vibrancy—then breaking that vision into small, achievable habits. They emphasize that real transformation comes from tiny wins, consistency, and a willingness to be uncomfortable, reflect deeply, and build sustainable habits over time. Ultimately, they urge listeners to paint a clear picture of their desired health future and start laying the groundwork now, one small step at a time.

In December’s Word of the Month, I’m sharing something Papa spoke to me at 3:31 a.m. ten days ago — loud enough in my spirit that it woke me up. The phrase was simple but weighty: “The Resurrection Frequency.” I knew it was significant and honestly, this isn't just theology to understand—it's a reality to embody. I've spent the last seven months in this, and I can tell you, I cannot operate the way I did before. There's a new level of stillness and a new level of discernment around what voice is actually leading me.  And as we close out 2025 and step into 2026, I'm inviting you into this journey of transfiguration with me, where the magnitude of glory that exists within you becomes unveiled in your everyday life. In this episode, we dive into: * What the “resurrection frequency” is (and why Papa is highlighting it now) * Why your body is not your enemy — it’s the place where Christ’s life is being revealed * How the voices, parts, and ego patterns aren’t “you” — they’re the old self dying off * Why pressure, timelines, and striving keep you out of resurrection awareness * How to sit still long enough for your system to recalibrate to union instead of survival It’s honest. It’s raw. It’s tender. And it’s very much where I am right now. If December is about anything, it’s about coming home to the indestructible, deathless life of Christ in you and letting that frequency realign everything — your thoughts, your energy, your emotions, and your way of moving through the world. Tune in and let Jesus speak to you personally about what this word means for you.

Join us as we explore the transformative power of trust! Mike unpacks Proverbs 3:5-6, revealing how trusting the Lord allows Him to direct our paths and lead us towards our purpose.

14 Years ago Daniel Rechnitzer made a life changing discovery. He discovered that his mind, in a complete space of stillness, had a remarkable capability. It became like an antenna, able to draw on outside information like a radio "tuning in" to other frequencies... one could almost say an All Knowing was becoming available. He soon discovered his brain was doing something most unique, it was becoming one - forming into a whole brain state rather than the two brain hemispheres working separately. In this "Whole Brain Space" he could access information on the root cause of life experiences: from the root cause of illness, to the thoughts behind relationship failures, to the subconscious beliefs creating financial struggles. He had tapped into a gift he has since found us all to have - an All Knowing Brain. Daniel is the author of The ALL KNOWING DIARY. He teaches around the world how to tap the vast reservoir of consciousness that our brain has been designed to access. His work is at the leading edge of Quantum Physics, pioneering the practical application of what scientists are only just starting to discover about our infinite Universe. Daniel is the founder of Ui Group - a not for profit organization that runs beginner courses to advanced practitioner training. - www.theallknowingdiary.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-x-zone-radio-tv-show--1078348/support.Please note that all XZBN radio and/or television shows are Copyright © REL-MAR McConnell Meda Company, Niagara, Ontario, Canada – www.rel-mar.com.

Is there such a thing as a "narcissistic collapse" — or is it just another trend designed to keep you scrolling at 2 AM looking for answers to why your relationship is the number one source of your frustration? Tony answers an email from a listener who keeps seeing videos promising that 2025 will be "the year of the narcissistic collapse"—the moment when the mask finally falls off, and everyone sees the truth. Cosmic justice would finally be served, and he would immediately feel a sense of relief, and either his partner would now become the person he'd always dreamed of, or he would undoubtedly find his soulmate within minutes after the collapse. And they would ride off into the sunset together. Tony breaks down the email line by line and unpacks everything from emotional immaturity and projection, the danger of couples therapy with the narcissist, to the continuing trap of trying to give your partner an epiphany. But the real conversation is about what narcissistic collapse actually is — and more importantly, what it isn't. Here's what the internet won't tell you: A narcissistic collapse isn't a sign of their progress. It's a sign of yours. They're not collapsing because they've changed. They're collapsing because you have — and the system that kept them emotionally afloat is breaking down. In this episode, you'll learn: - Why asking "Am I the narcissist?" almost always means you're not - The difference between reactive abuse and actual instability — and why therapists often get it wrong - How your vulnerability becomes an "attack surface" in emotionally immature relationships - What the research actually says about narcissistic injury, decompensation, and collapse - Why your growth equals their loss of control — and your calm equals their panic - David Schnarch's theory on differentiation, and his Four Points of Balance that make real change possible - How to stop selling yourself on a destination of hope and start building the vehicle that will truly take you where you need to go If you've ever scrolled through narcissism content at 2 AM looking for answers, this one's for you. 00:00 Introduction and Episode Overview 00:38 Listener Email: A Muse for Self-Discovery 01:00 Defining a Muse in Everyday Life 01:55 Listener's Struggle: Emotional Immaturity and Narcissism 02:28 The Narcissistic Collapse: Fact or Fiction? 02:51 Listener's Background and Marriage Issues 03:30 Therapy and Self-Doubt 03:51 Emotional Immaturity's Impact on Vulnerability 04:06 The Epiphany Trap and Anxious Attachment 04:35 Couples Therapy Pitfalls 05:18 The Role of Social Media in Coping 19:45 Reactive Abuse and Emotional Safety 28:01 The 5-4-3-2-1 Countdown Technique 29:09 Understanding Narcissistic Collapse 30:08 The Origin and Impact of Narcissistic Injury 30:39 The Role of Boundaries in Narcissistic Collapse 31:21 Emotional Immaturity and Defensive Structures 36:13 The Process of Differentiation 37:51 The Importance of Self-Validation 38:26 The Narcissistic Collapse as a Sign of Your Progress 44:10 Selling the Destination vs. Building the Vehicle 47:12 The Reality of Transformation and Healing 52:10 Final Thoughts and Encouragement Women navigating emotionally immature relationships: come join Tony's private women's Facebook group.

In this episode of the Not Your Mother's Menopause Podcast, Dr. Fiona Lovely engages in a fascinating conversation with Paul Austin, a leading voice in the responsible use of psychedelics for personal and professional growth.  This discussion moves far beyond the stereotypes to explore how these powerful tools can serve as catalysts for profound change, especially for women navigating the complexities of midlife. Dr. Lovely and Paul delve into the foundational concept of microdosing, explaining what it is and how a structured protocol can gently enhance neuroplasticity, improve mood, and increase energy without any intoxicating effects.  Paul clarifies the distinct characteristics of different psychedelics, like psilocybin and LSD, and offers practical, sage advice on how to begin this journey safely and intentionally. The conversation also touches on the critical importance of "set and setting," the essential role of skilled facilitation, and how these substances can help to soften the rigid patterns of thinking that often hold us back.  If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or curious about alternative paths to mental and emotional wellness, this episode offers a fresh, educational, and hopeful perspective on a topic that is rapidly evolving in our modern world.

Anchor Passage: (Nehemiah 8-12)The most significant change that happened under Nehemiah's leadership wasn't the rebuilt wall of Jerusalem—it was the character transformation of the Israelites. Join us as we learn how to bring about the fruit of transformation in our lives and communities!

Learn how mastering your anxiety with simple, God-given tools like deep breathing can transform your leadership in the moments that matter most.Tod Bolsinger and Markus Watson discuss this quote from Audrey Davidheiser in Ep. 284, How to Respond Thoughtfully Instead of Reacting:"If you feel anxious or rushed or concerned or fearful, deep breaths. Because taking deep breaths from the belly is just a natural way that God has instilled in our brain, that it just kind of resets the nervous system and it allows ourselves to come back up online."THIS EPISODE'S HIGHLIGHTS INCLUDE:Leaders reset their nervous system by taking deep, belly breaths when feeling anxious or stressed.Leaders make wiser decisions when they calm themselves before responding to difficult situations.Leaders enhance their effectiveness by admitting their own anxiety instead of denying it.Leaders move from reactive anger to thoughtful action by recognizing when they are emotionally “activated.”Leaders cultivate calm as a leadership skill to better focus on their mission and serve others.Send me a text!

Rev. Chris Jimmerson's service delivered on November 30, 2025. Transcendence and Transformation are two of our religious values at First Unitarian Universalist Church of Austin. We'll explore how our experiences of transcendence can lead to personal growth and transformation, and paradoxically, how working to transform ourselves and our world can lead us into transcendence.

Where does transformation really start? I once had a dream where I was locked out of my own house, frantically trying every code I could think of until a voice said, "You already have the code. It's L-O-V-E." Most leaders believe transformation means doing more more strategy, more effort, more willpower. But true transformation starts with being, not doing. It's not about performing who you think you should be it's about remembering who you already are.

In this powerful episode, Mike “C‑Roc” welcomes Dr. Robb Kelly, a world‑renowned recovery expert who has dedicated his life to treating the root causes of addiction—not just the symptoms. Dr. Kelly opens up about his extraordinary journey from a successful career in psychology and the music industry to the darkest depths of alcoholism, homelessness, and repeated near‑death experiences. He shares the heartbreaking moments that brought him to his knees, the awakening that pushed him toward change, and the relentless research that led him to groundbreaking discoveries about the brain, addiction, and human potential. Together, Dr. Kelly and C‑Roc dive into identity, mindset, trauma, subconscious programming, and why most people sabotage their own success long before they ever reach it. Dr. Kelly also discusses his revolutionary approach to recovery, the science behind true transformation, and how he helps people overcome not only alcoholism but also anxiety, depression, and limiting beliefs to become the version of themselves they were always meant to be.

Ugandan gospel artist Minister Rachel K sits down with Bonny Kibuuka on The Ugandan Boy Talk Show for her most open and revealing interview yet.

Transformation rarely fails for lack of effort; it stalls when our internal baseline stays the same. Alyssa takes you inside the real mechanics of a timeline shift—how identity, nervous system patterns, and ancestral loyalties quietly script your choices—and shows why mindset alone keeps you looping familiar results. We explore how somatic practices teach your body new safety, how lineage work dissolves invisible contracts to stay small, and how community provides the co‑regulation that turns insight into durable change.You'll hear a candid look at collapse, chaos, and the awkward in‑between where the old self no longer fits and the new one isn't stable yet. Instead of forcing outcomes, we lean into pattern interrupts, embodied rituals, and environment design—retreats, land‑based ceremony, and group containers—that interrupt routine, widen capacity, and make clarity actionable. Along the way, we map the early signs of a real shift: lower tolerance for misalignment, cleaner decisions, deeper conversations, and opportunities that the old identity couldn't hold.If you're noticing tests—familiar jobs, past partners, soothing habits—this conversation reframes them as thresholds. You don't need permission from family to heal family patterns; you need practices that update your emotional baseline and a circle that reflects your becoming. By the end, you'll have a practical lens for choosing growth over comfort, regulating through uncertainty, and anchoring a future that matches who you're becoming rather than who you've been.Ready to step onto a new path with support?

My friends often joke that I am a predictable, spiritual stereotype. They joke that they can predict my answers and ideas based on the punchlines of comedians who mock the religious… They aren't wrong.The Meaning CrisisI am one of those people the meaning crisis beat into the darkness from which I thought I would never return. Over my life I became increasingly disconnected from my family, my friends, my faith and my life. My family tend to judge me without care or compassion for my own mental or physical health. I am an avatar for their wishes, dreams, and expectations and not a person in and of myself. Friends are physically so far away, because I have lived all over the country, my friends live all over the country and it is hard to keep in touch with them, especially as it has become harder for me to travel. The church abandoned God for the Republican Party. My body keeps me from doing so many of the things I want to do as my chronic ailments have gotten worse over time.The results of all of this is I am left drowning in the same sea of disconnection and loneliness as everyone. I've been able to keep my head above water, but it is so tempting sometimes to just let myself go under. While I know or at least see a path to the shore, riptides keep pulling me back out to sea.Current events don't help. Every time I watch the news, my faith in the social contract, progress, and our ability to correct errors is shaken and cracked. I know historically, the ideological pendulum swings back and forth. It is hard to live through this prolonged swing to the right especially when as the mechanics of the state have been twisted to cover up and prevent the pendulum from swinging back the other way.I know I am not the only one feeling all this, but I don't see enough spiritual teachers being honest about it.The Light in the DarknessAt the dances I was one of the most untiring and gayest. One evening a cousin of Sasha, a young boy, took me aside. With a grave face, as if he were about to announce the death of a dear comrade, he whispered to me that it did not behoove an agitator to dance. Certainly not with such reckless abandon, anyway. It was undignified for one who was on the way to become a force in the anarchist movement. My frivolity would only hurt the Cause.I grew furious at the impudent interference of the boy. I told him to mind his own business, I was tired of having the Cause constantly thrown into my face. I did not believe that a Cause which stood for a beautiful ideal, for anarchism, for release and freedom from conventions and prejudice, should demand the denial of life and joy. I insisted that our Cause could not expect me to became a nun and that the movement should not be turned into a cloister. If it meant that, I did not want it. “I want freedom, the right to self-expression, everybody's right to beautiful, radiant things.” Anarchism meant that to me, and I would live it in spite of the whole world — prisons, persecution, everything. Yes, even in spite of the condemnation of my own closest comrades I would live my beautiful ideal.- Emma Goldman, Living My LifeWe are not at our best when we are serious and solemn, entirely focused on the Cause, whatever the “Cause” might be. We are at our best when we are really and truly alive and bringing that vitality to our causes.Anarchism is simply the rejection of unjust hierarchies and working through right relationship in accordance with the sovereignty of ourselves and others to build an equitable world. I want to build and live in a just, equitable, and compassionate world. That goal is the light on the path out of the meaning crisis for me. That is why I share it to the best of my ability.Science and reason are great, but they have nothing to offer to the search of meaning, purpose, or fulfillment. We can study those things all we want, but their is no way to objectively measure happiness, fulfillment, meaning, purpose, and connection. We need a different technology for those things, and we have three: religion, spirituality, and magic. The problem is they have been used to control, dominate, and suppress people. Any technology can be misused, that doesn't mean we throw it out. We have to reclaim it for its proper and good use.How do we find meaning?These are like diagnostic questions you can ask about in order to (sort of) measure how much meaning in life you have. What do you want to exist even if you don't?Second, how real is it? Is it really real? Third, how much of a difference do you make to it now? If you can answer all three of those you have meaning in life. If one of them is missing, it's reduced. If they're all missing, you're in trouble.John Vervaeke, Metaphysics of MatteringThese are the diagnostic questions to discover how much meaning we have in our lives:* What do we want to exist even if it doesn't?* How real is what we want to exist? * How much of a difference do we make to building it now? The better we can answer those questions, the more meaning we have in our lives. I want to live in a world without unjust hierarchies, where everyone has access to meaning. I want to be a part of a movement where everyone can and does dance when they want. That is why I am a practitioner of Creation Spirituality.Creation Spirituality and the Meaning CrisisCreation Spirituality offers a clear and simple pattern to find meaning for ourselves individually and as a collective. That tool is the Four Paths, which is one of the most powerful spiritual technologies I have ever found to build and rebuild meaning and never forget to dance.Path One: The Way of Awe (Via Positiva)The first path begins with Awe, reminding us that we are born in Original Blessing in a world that is good (ki tov), that grace is always available to us and we exist as conduits for that grace to enter the world. How does the first path answer these questions?What do we want to exist on the first path even if it doesn't?We want to experience the jaw-dropping awe of the cosmos, savoring it with all our hearts. We use those experiences to build communities of hospitality where we, like Earth, are welcoming to all.We want to experience joy in our daily life, where we work from the desires of our hearts to build a better world for each other and the world to come.This exists on a small scale in our personal lives, but we desire to see this joy, awe, and enjoyment of life be available to all.How real is what we want to exist? This world is available to all, but is kept from most of our grasp by the greedy and the power hungry. We make enough food to feed everyone on Earth and have enough housing for a roof over everyone's head. It is only greed and the need of a few to dominate others that we are not living in that reality now.How much of a difference do we make to building it now? The more we work to help everyone savor the joys of life, the closer we get to it being a reality for all. Through mutual aid, collective bargaining, community organizing, and deep friendships, we grow ever closer to bringing this reality to all.That might not seem true, but that is because there are too many people striving to keep power, wealth, healthcare, food, and shelter under the control of a greedy and fearful elite. The more of us who are working for the liberation of all, the fewer there are taking food, safety, and life from those who are deprived of their birthrights.Path Two: The Way of Mystery (Via Negativa)What do we want to exist on the second path even if it doesn't?In path two, we let go of the delusional certainty that we know everything and we reject the lie that we must ignore suffering and those who are in pain. What we want is the space to acknowledge our wounds so they might be tended and healed. We want the room to speak the truth to power that power fears. We want the mindfulness to sit with our pain, acknowledge it, and reveal the depth of harm existing in the current system.How real is what we want to exist? Some of us have a mindfulness practice and have built support groups and healing circles. We see the hope and healing they bring into our lives. With a little effort and collective will, we can open space to air the issues we have and are enduring, because there can be no reconciliation without the truth coming out first.How much of a difference do we make to building it now? The work we are currently doing helps so many people, but through the circumstances imposed on us by the systems that exist now, so many others fall through the cracks. We need to continue to offer the help we are now and build a world where the resources exist to make these resources available to everyone.Path Three: The Way of Creativity (Via Creativa)On the third path, we trust our voices, our hands, and our bodies to bring the wonder we found in path one and the maturity and strength we found in path two into the world through creative conversation, organizing, cooking, poetry, writing, art, and countless other means. We channel the compassion and wisdom we generate in the first two paths into modes of sharing that compassion and wisdom to others.What do we want to exist on the third path even if it doesn't?While our culture does not embrace the importance of art in all its varied forms, some of us embrace it and offer the fruits of our labor to the world. Our work is very real, which is why the powerful and the greedy work so hard to commodify it and control it by the whims of the rich and powerful.How real is what we want to exist?Even through the efforts of the powerful to co-opt and control creativity and our imaginations, so many continue to work from the heart. If we found better ways to support the arts and those who create it, even more would be able to share their glimpses of the world through their own eyes. Creativity is real, but we need to do more to encourage everyone to take part in the creativity yearning to break free from their hearts. How much of a difference do we make to building it now? Creativity changes the world. Stories are empathy machines (Roger Ebert) that change the way we see others and ourselves. Art changes the way we see the world. The reason tyrants always go after free speech is so they can close off the imaginations of the people so they will accept their vile rule. All creativity, no matter how small, changes the world for someone.Path Four: The Way of Transformation (Via Transformativa)In path four, we take the compassion and creativity born though the first three paths and carry it into the world through justice movements and celebration.What do we want to exist on the fourth path even if it doesn't?Truth exists. It is born from the relationship between facts and how they impact people and the world. Justice movements push back oppression and celebration builds sanctuaries for us to recharge and renew our strength for justice making.How real is what we want to exist? The rich and the powerful have arrayed themselves against the work of justice and hope. The movements exist, but they need to grow and take back the power from those who seek control over others.How much of a difference do we make to building it now? Each person who joins a justice movement or who makes a sanctuary for those working for justice makes this even more of a reality. Together through collective action we change the world.This is why I practice Creation SpiritualityCreation Spirituality is a fount of meaning and purpose. The practice focuses us on the daily activities that help us find meaning every day, even in the darkest times. You don't have to agree with my politics and I don't have to agree with yours. We do need to agree with need for justice, compassion, wonder, mindfulness, and creativity. These things will liberate us all from those seeking to control us for their own selfish aims. The practice itself liberates us individually, and encourages us to bring others with us on the path to freedom, harmony, and joy.I want to invite you to join us as we learn more about the four paths and the ways we can embody them to find meaning and purpose in our own lives and to spread that discovery to everyone.Thanks for reading!

We dive deep into the genesis and mission of CHARM, the professional society for healthcare well-being leaders, and explore its foundational charter that has become a blueprint for institutions nationwide. Discover the most promising interventions today, from the explosive growth of physician coaching to the potential of AI and ambient scribes to reclaim time for meaningful work. In this episode, you'll learn: The story behind the CHARM collaborative and how it creates community for well-being leaders. Why the CHARM charter remains a critical document for defining the principles of systemic well-being. The four key domains of effective well-being programs: mental health, individual strategies, leadership culture, and work design. Why physician coaching and AI tools are among the most exciting advancements for reducing burnout. Practical advice for medical students and early-career physicians on how to choose a workplace that will support their well-being.

In this episode, Dr. Diane interviews Amardeep Bedi, a former optometrist who pivoted from clinical practice to practice enhancement coaching. Amardeep shares his journey of recognizing the need for change, the challenges he faced, and how he created Mastery Coaching to help other practice owners find fulfillment and success. The conversation emphasizes the importance of self-belief, personal growth, and the need to define success on one's own terms. Takeaways Amardeep Bedi transitioned from clinical optometry to coaching to find personal fulfillment. He recognized the importance of self-belief in achieving one's goals, where many clinicians feel bored and unfulfilled in their careers, leading to a desire for change. Mastery Coaching helps practice owners optimize their businesses for a better work-life balance. Taking time for self-reflection is crucial for personal and professional growth.

Episode page: https://bit.ly/44hNGCc Episode description: In this episode of Insights Unlocked, Zoom CMO Kim Storin joins host Johann Wrede for a candid conversation about the realities of leading through transformation. Kim shares why change is harder than most leaders admit and how Zoom is evolving from a company known for meetings to a full multi-product collaboration platform. She also breaks down new Zoom + Deloitte research uncovering surprising gaps in how organizations measure collaboration ROI. From the power of curiosity and calculated risk-taking to the importance of authenticity and community in B2B marketing, Kim offers practical, human-centered guidance for anyone navigating rapid growth or organizational change. Key topics discussed: Why transformation is so challenging: “You can have the greatest strategy in the world, but the culture can make or break it.” Balancing optimism and pragmatism: Kim explains why optimism inspires progress—but only works when paired with realistic planning. Zoom's evolution beyond meetings: From events to customer support to sales enablement, Zoom is building a more-than-meetings collaboration ecosystem. The collaboration paradox: Workers now spend 25 hours/week on meeting-related tasks—yet companies still struggle to see true productivity and ROI. Community as a competitive edge: Why users proudly say “I'm a Zoom user,” and how brands can build authentic connection at scale. The 3 traits of modern marketing leaders: Curiosity, agility, and the confidence to take calculated risks.

There comes a moment in your walk with God when obedience to the fi rst instruction isn't enough and He's calls you to take the next one. But fear, perfectionism, and uncertainty can make us hold on to what's comfortable, even when God's already moved on. In this episode, we'll talk about what happens when you stay stuck at a past instruction, how partial obedience can block the very promise you've been praying for, and how to build the faith to move when God says, “Go.”Key Scriptures Mentioned:  - Numbers 20:1-13Resources: ★ Journal Mastery Academy - Coachyourwaytowealth.com/Journalmasteryacademy★ Start Your Own Podcast Course - https://www.skillshare.com/en/classes/How-To-Start-A-Podcast-For-Beginners/1142543427?teacherRef=958930354&via=teacher-referral&utm_campaign=teacher-referral-1142543427&utm_source=Skillshare&utm_medium=class-teacher-referral-email★ The Royal Faith Journal - https://prosperingwithchrist.systeme.io/theroyalfaithjournalFollow Us On YouTube, Tiktok, Instagram, and Facebook: @ProsperingWithChrist

In this deeply moving conversation, Jessie sits down with longtime friends Jessica and Andrew Arnold to talk about their journey raising and discipling their daughter Sarah, who is autistic, vibrant, socially curious, and wonderfully unique. The Arnolds open up about Sarah's early diagnosis, the beauty and complexity of her faith, and the ways they've learned to release expectations, trust God, and embrace who she is rather than who they once imagined she might become.With honesty and tenderness, they share what it looks like to navigate neurodivergence, emotional highs and lows, identity questions, and spiritual formation in real time. They talk about Sarah's love for cosplay, her evangelist's heart, her deep honesty, her struggles with jealousy and belonging, and the remarkable way she makes space for others on the margins. The conversation also highlights how faith communities can support neurodivergent individuals—not by fixing them, but by attuning, welcoming, and creating belonging.This episode is an invitation to reimagine discipleship with gentleness, patience, and grace. It reminds us that God's image is reflected beautifully in every person, and that those who experience the world differently often teach us the most about vulnerability, love, and the heart of Jesus.ORDER Jessie's newest book, Ordinary Discipleship: How God Wires Us for the Adventure of Transformation → https://a.co/d/51j86DGFor more great stuff, check out: Ordinary Discipleship by Whoology: https://whoology.coFollow us on social media:https://instagram.com/ordinarydiscipleshiphttps://facebook.com/ordinarydiscipleshipFollow Jessie on social media:Instagram: https://instagram.com/yourbrainbyjessFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/jessica.s.cruickshank/Twitter: https://twitter.com/yourbrainbyjess ORDER Jessie's newest book, Ordinary Discipleship: How God Wires Us for the Adventure of Transformation → https://a.co/d/51j86DGFor more great stuff, check out: Ordinary Discipleship by Whoology: https://whoology.coFollow us on social media:https://instagram.com/ordinarydiscipleshiphttps://facebook.com/ordinarydiscipleshipFollow Jessie on social media:Instagram: https://instagram.com/yourbrainbyjessFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/jessica.s.cruickshank/Twitter: https://twitter.com/yourbrainbyjessJessie Cruickshank is a disciple-maker, wilderness guide, and ordained minister.
