Podcasts about transformative power

This week we're kicking off part one of a two-part series all about the transformative power of forgiveness. We're talking about how holding onto unforgiveness can weigh you down, mess with your peace, and even impact your health and growth. I'm sharing three powerful steps to real forgiveness — reconciliation, cleansing, and freedom — and we're getting real about what it means to make peace with yourself first. Because, let's be honest, the hardest person to forgive is usually the one in the mirror. I'll show you how to release anger, shame, and guilt so you can live lighter and freer. If forgiveness feels tough — whether it's toward someone else or yourself — this episode is for you.In this episode:The impact of unforgiveness on your peace and growthWhy forgiveness is powerful and necessaryThe three steps to forgiveness: reconciliation, cleansing, and freedomHow to release guilt, bitterness, and angerHow to make peace with yourself and move forward unburdenedHere is my favorite quote from this episode:"When you forgive, you let go." - Kim GravelTake the Quiz: Which Maribelle and the Manger character are you?

In this episode, we explore the transformative potential of social rights with Dr. Octávio Ferraz, Professor at King's College London and Co-Director of the Transnational Law Institute. We discuss the importance of social rights and the challenges that arise when their judicialization is disconnected from egalitarian principles. In other words: how can social rights fulfill their transformative promises, and when might certain forms of judicialization actually entrench social inequalities? Dr. Ferraz's research focuses on human rights and development, particularly the role of law and courts in advancing social justice, equality, and redress for poverty. His recent work has also dived into democracy and environmental protection, with a focus on the Amazon. His book Judging Social Rights, published by Cambridge University Press, is available here: https://www.cambridge.org/core/books/abs/judging-social-rights/judging-social-rights/DC11AD44DD919925F0271D278C438822   Sources: https://repository.essex.ac.uk/9789/1/human-rights-council-statement-maternal-mortality-panel-june-2008.pdf https://www.un.org/peacebuilding/sites/www.un.org.peacebuilding/files/2._ohchr_thematic_paper_on_escrs_and_sdgs.pdfhttps://www.constituteproject.org/topics https://www.wcfia.harvard.edu/publications/not-enough-human-rights-unequal-worldhttps://www.hhrjournal.org/2013/08/29/the-right-to-health-in-the-courts-of-brazil-worsening-health-inequities/ https://kclpure.kcl.ac.uk/portal/en/publications/the-right-to-health-in-the-courts-of-brazil-still-worsening-healt

Connor Beaton, founder of ManTalks, joins MTM. He in a transformative conversation about shadow work and its profound impact on personal choices and mental well-being. Throughout the discussion, Connor delves deep into the concept of the "shadow self," exploring how acknowledging and integrating the hidden, often suppressed aspects of our personalities leads to greater self-awareness and genuine change. We candidly address the role of shame in our lives—how it can serve as both a motivator and a destructive force—and why many people unconsciously use shame-based narratives as a way to push themselves, often resulting in cycles of self-sabotage and emotional stagnation. Connor illustrates how confronting shadow elements like guilt, regret, and self-doubt enables us to break free from repeating negative patterns. Listeners will learn actionable strategies for revealing and working through feelings of shame, while gaining tools for healthier inner dialogue and compassionate self-reflection.You'll learn how self-compassion, accepting past mistakes, and building more authentic relationships—cornerstones of Connor's approach to men's emotional growth and healing.Feeling stuck?

Who would have thought play would be a transformative tool to de-stress and build resilience? Turns out the act, which is different for everyone, is biologically hardwired in our brains. “Everyone has a sense of joyfulness,” says Dr. Stuart Brown, founder of the National Institute for Play. He began studying play science after discovering the perpetrator of a 1960s mass shooting lacked play from the time he was born. Play deprivation can have grave consequences, he found, but joyful engagement fuels happiness and intelligence. He joins a panel of play experts including Cj Hendry, an artist whose large-scale installations often lead people to play, and Heidi Erwin, senior game designer at the New York Times. Sam Sanders, former NPR reporter and producer and host of the podcast, “The Sam Sanders Show,” moderates the conversation.

 The Transformative Power of "Thank You"The story of Wahei Takeda (Japan's Warren Buffett) and the desperate jobseeker reveals a profound truth: Gratitude isn't just a feeling—it's a financial and spiritual force.How "Thank You" Rewires Your Brain (and Bank Account)    The 1-Yen Miracle        The jobless man was told: "Say ‘thank you' 3,300 times a day for a month, and I'll pay you 100,000 yen."        At first, it seemed absurd. But within weeks, his mindset shifted:            He noticed hidden opportunities in rejections.            He appreciated his family despite their struggles.            He radiated positivity, transforming his job interviews.        Result: He returned not just richer, but unstoppable.    The Science of Gratitude        Studies show gratitude boosts serotonin (the "happiness chemical") and reduces cortisol (the stress hormone).        People who practice gratitude earn 7% more on average—not from luck, but because they attract opportunities .    My Near-Death Testimony        After a paralyzing accident, doctors said I'd never walk again.        Instead of despair, I repeated: "Thank you, God, for my life."        Eight hours later, I stood up and left the hospital.        My vision was blurry, my body traumatized—but gratitude rewired my recovery.The "Thank You" ChallengeWant to test this power? For the next 30 days:    Say "thank you" 100+ times daily (to cashiers, strangers, even frustrations).    Journal 3 gratitudes every night (e.g., "Thank you for the bus arriving on time").    Silently thank God (or the universe) during hardships (e.g., "Thank you for this lesson").Watch what happens:    Opportunities find you.    People help you unexpectedly.    Your mind spots solutions, not problems.Why Billionaires Like Takeda Teach ThisWarren Buffett, Oprah, and Tony Robbins all credit gratitude as their "secret weapon."    Buffett starts his day listing things he's grateful for.    Oprah kept a gratitude journal for decades.    Takeda knew: Money flows to those who appreciate life first.Final ThoughtThe man in Takeda's story didn't get rich from the 100,000 yen. He got rich because gratitude made him magnetic.Your turn. Start today. One "thank you" at a time.Question: What's the one thing you'll thank God/universe for today? (Reply, then act on it.)

You have to leave the city of your comfort and go into the wilderness of your intuition. What you'll discover will be wonderful. What you'll discover is yourself. –Alan AldaEPISODE HIGHLIGHTS Confront the Source of Doubt: When you question if your prayers are working, stop and ask, "Who told me it wasn't working?" The answer is fear, and your perfect love union in Christ casts it out, promoting Healing and Transformation podcast insights. It's Already In Motion: Your decrees, prayers, and heart desires are not waiting to start; they are already turning the wheels of creation because of God's belief and favor in you. Rest in His Faith: Faith is a result of your encounters with the love of God. Stop striving for "more faith" and start engaging in Daily spiritual wisdom (encountering His love). You Are Impregnable: The name of Jacob's God (Psalms 24) makes you able to carry your promise to term. You have heaven's support, making you a Transformational spiritual leader in your own life. Faith is NOT a work. It's what happens when you are overwhelmed by God's belief and favor in a daily encounter. Stop striving to muster enough faith. Start focusing on encountering His love—that is the momentum needed for spiritual growth and finding purpose through faith. Your worship as a Living Sacrifice pleases Him more than any religious routine!

As one third of the legendary rap group Run-DMC, Darryl “DMC” McDaniels—aka Legendary MC, The Devastating Mic Controller, and the King of Rock—had it all: talent, money, fame, prestige. While hitting #1 on the Billboard charts was exhilarating, the group's success soon became overwhelming. A creative who enjoyed being at home alone or with his family, DMC turned to alcohol to numb himself, a retreat that became an addiction. For years, he went through the motions. But when intoxication could no longer keep the pain at bay, he plunged into severe depression and became suicidal. He wasn't alone. During the same period, suicide became the number three leading cause of death among black people—a health crisis that continues to this day. In this episode, we explore the challenges and subsequent psychological growth, resilience, and the deeper human story behind Darryl McDaniels' public persona. We explore themes of identity, mental health, family, creativity, and personal transformation - all central to his life story and his evolution as an artist, advocate, humanitarian and community leader, and he is an inspiration to help us all to live our life in full.

If God could transform Jacob the deceiver into Israel the man of God, imagine what He can do with your life.

Using vivid imagery, she underscores that, like flowers, joy and blessings require time, effort, and certain conditions to bloom.Resources:Philippians 4:19: A biblical reference emphasizing God's provision and the nature of blessings.Isaiah 55:10-11: Another biblical reference used to illustrate the importance of trusting the divine process of growth and transformation.Sponsors of this podcastMINT MobileGet this new customer offer and your 3-month Unlimited wireless plan for just 15 bucks a month at MINTMOBILE.com/TRANSFORM.ShopifySign up for your one-dollar-per-month trial period at SHOPIFY.COM/transformTo advertise on our podcast, visit https://advertising.libsyn.com/TransformyourMindor email kriti@youngandprofiting.com See this video on The Transform Your Mind YouTube Channel https://www.youtube.com/@MyhelpsUs/videosTo see a transcripts of this audio as well as links to all the advertisers on the show page https://myhelps.us/Follow Transform Your Mind on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/myrnamyoung/Follow Transform Your mind on Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100063738390977Please leave a rating and review on iTunes https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/transform-your-mind/id1144973094 https://podcast.feedspot.com/personal_development_podcasts/

In this episode of the Modern Man podcast, Ted Phaeton and Craig Filek delve into the concept of purpose mapping, a framework designed for high-achieving midlife men who feel unfulfilled despite their success. They discuss the journey of self-discovery, the importance of community, and the challenges men face in seeking help. Craig shares insights on navigating the second mountain of life, the role of fatherhood in personal development, and the barriers that prevent men from pursuing their true purpose. The conversation emphasizes the need for connection, the significance of understanding one's purpose, and the transformative power of bold communication.   Takeaways Purpose mapping helps men find clarity in their lives. The journey of self-discovery is essential for fulfillment. More money does not equate to happiness. Fatherhood is a powerful catalyst for personal growth. Men often feel lost after achieving traditional success. Community and connection are vital for men's well-being. The second mountain represents a deeper purpose in life. Overcoming fear is crucial for personal development. Men need to embrace vulnerability to seek help. Clarity in purpose can reignite passion and drive.   Chapters 01:00 Introduction to Purpose Mapping03:57 The Journey of Self-Discovery06:32 The Purpose Mapping Process09:37 Exploring the Shadow Self12:23 The Importance of Connection and Community15:21 Navigating the Second Mountain18:07 The Role of Fatherhood in Personal Development20:41 The Map of Psychological Wholeness23:00 Personal Reflection and Vulnerability27:00 Practical Examples of Purpose in Action31:00 Defining a Personal Purpose Statement35:00 The Role of Purpose in Longevity and Fulfillment42:00 Distinguishing Purpose, Vision, and Mission43:00 Overcoming Barriers to Taking the Leap46:00 The Danger of Complacency and the Need for New Challenges 48:00 How to Access Purpose Mapping Resources 51:30 The Transformative Power of Fatherhood53:30 Recap56:00  Final Encouragement and Call to Action   Felik’s Links Website: purposemapping.com Instagram: PurposeMapping LinkedIn: craigfilek YouTube: PurposeMapping Facebook: PurposeMapping   Free eBook Here: Mastering Self-Development: Strategies of the New Masculine: https://rebrand.ly/m2ebook   ⚔️JOIN THE NOBLE KNIGHTS MASTERMIND⚔️ https://themodernmanpodcast.com/thenobleknights  

Sylvain Berneron is in high demand, and so are his watch designs. Just last week, a 34-millimeter version of his debut time-only watch, the Berneron Mirage, came up for public auction for the first time, and bidding soared beyond the CHF80,000 high estimate to fetch a staggering CHF241,300, including fees. Having previously worked in the automotive industry with BMW, Berneron is a designer who has now chosen watchmaking as the canvas to express himself and his ideas. After departing the big brand corporate atmosphere of Breitling, he's enjoyed significant success so far with his own brand and has just unveiled his second collection - Quantième - and an annual calendar that brings a unique, yet superbly finished, movement architecture to the complication that aims to simplify setting and provide a stress-free experience for the user. Sized at just 38 millimeters in diameter and 10 millimeters thick, the dial design is both stunning and innovative in the way the time and date are displayed, while the platinum case features removable (and replaceable) steel elements that act as bumpers and guards for the precious metal. But this podcast is about business, and Berneron indulged us with a lengthy, candid, and exceedingly in-depth discussion about his plan for building a brand and sustainable company that bears his family name. He tells us why he's set up shop in a Swiss industrial park, the business strategy behind limiting production to less than 25 of each specific watch per year, and why he's turned down creative jobs at Rolex and tens of millions of dollars in financing from potential investors despite having barely a holiday or weekend off for the last half-decade. It's a deep dive into the business strategy and plan of a young, driven, red-hot watch brand that's trying to make it for the long haul. We hope you enjoy. Show Notes:3:20 Berneron Quantième Annuel 4:45 Berneron SA 6:20 Panerai manufacture in Neuchatel 13:00 BMW Research and Innovation Centre13:40 Breitling 18:20 Ben Clymer on founding Hodinkee and a professional life in watches24:00 White label watch manufacturers in Switzerland include companies like Roventa-Henex 25:50 Swiss watch components makers include companies like Acrotec, the biggest supplier 32:15 Breitling Sells Controlling Stake to CVC Capital32:50 Nicolas G.

Embracing a blend of generational experiences creates a powerful synergy that drives innovation and adaptability in a traditionally male-dominated field. Building a legacy is about continuous influence and active mentorship, crafting a pathway for future generations to thrive in automotive sales and leadership. The Transformative Power of Mother-Daughter Mentorship in Automotive The automotive industry is often perceived as a daunting male-dominated arena, where women have historically faced numerous challenges. However, in the recent episode of the "Millionaire Car Salesman Podcast," an inspiring conversation unfolds. Hosted by Tianna Mick, also known as "T," and featuring powerful industry leaders like Karen Bradley and Tiffany Kruzer, this discussion unlocks the essence of mentorship, generational synergy, and legacy building within the sector. In this lively exchange, Tianna Mick, along with her mother Karen Bradley, CEO of Dealer Synergy, align voices with Tiffany Kruzer and her daughter, Liana Nikel, illustrating the vibrant dynamics involved in navigating and thriving in automotive sales. The dialogue elaborates on how robust mentorship and familial bonds are not only transforming individual careers but reshaping the very fabric of the industry. Karen Bradley highlights the importance of mentorship by stating, "Knowing and understanding that sometimes we don't necessarily want to do things, but we need to do those things is what sets us apart." This mindset is a cornerstone for emerging leaders in the automotive world, emphasizing that consistent actions and demonstrated success pave the way for future improvements. Empowering Women Through Generational Synergy Generational synergy is a force multiplier. As evidenced by Liana Nikel's transition from teaching to automotive sales, where she attributes the shift to observing her mother, Tiffany Kruzer. The blend of past wisdom and modern approaches—an environment Karen and Tiffany have cultivated—is pushing industry barriers. Tiffany reflects on her journey, "At first was in a career when I was doing telemarketing; I noticed I really had a drive to talk to people, and I was good at it." Here, we see the intersection of traditional perseverance with contemporary technology and social integration. The older managerial styles, depicted vividly as Liana recounts experiences at her "old-school" dealership, clash yet ultimately harmonize with the more progressive tactics of their new environment. This fusion represents how the automotive landscape is shifting, driven in part by female leadership and family mentorship. Tianna Mick sheds light on this transformation, recalling her own journey, "When I had that opportunity… I saw that was something that I was pretty good at." Demonstrating that when nurtured adequately, younger generations thrive, bridging traditional practices with innovative strategies. Legacy Building: Creating a Foundation for the Future Through the lens of legacy building, this conversation enriches the understanding of how purposeful mentorship creates lasting impact. Karen Bradley expresses her thoughts on legacy: "I want to leave behind values and good habits for future generations." This notion is reinforced as Tiffany Kruzer shares stories of leading by example, proving that actions over time inspire those who follow. Legacy in the context of the automotive world extends beyond family. It is about empowering a community—through shared knowledge, experience, and opportunity. Tiffany and Karen's support of their daughters not only provides personal insight but sets a precedent within their professional realms. Tianna Mick reiterates this shared mission by pointing out, "Legacy isn't just passed down, it's built together." The significance of actively nurturing relationships within the industry comes through in how Tiffany describes her client interactions. By maintaining connections, she secures repeat business and referrals, embodying the ideal of a professional legacy: "Spending all day with… our children… influences their success and future." The Continuous Influence of Mentorship Across Generations In the web of professional transitions and personal growth, the unifying thread is the family mentorship that transcends simple guidance. As the industry increasingly diversifies, these relationships illuminate pathways for more inclusive and effective leadership. This dynamic dialogue unveils that embracing diverse career perspectives—even those not initially charted by one's own vision—are vital in carving roles for women in automotive spaces. Both seasoned mothers and their ambitious daughters are clear about their mission. For Karen Bradley, it's about demonstrating "that sometimes actions speak louder than words." Meanwhile, Tiffany encourages the next generation to "carry [their] own weather," a metaphor for maintaining inner strength and resiliency regardless of external circumstances. These reflective insights underscore not just a transition of skills or aspirations but highlight a collective ambition for where the future can expand. Ultimately, the podcast crystallizes how integral these family partnerships are to reshaping the automotive industry, emphasizing that success is deeply rooted in the sharing of experiences and continued growth.

We explore how devotion, presence, and embodied masculinity can transform not only the birth experience but the entire foundation of family life. From challenging the medicalized narratives that strip away natural sovereignty, to honoring birth as a spiritual initiation that shapes identity, resilience, and connection, this conversation is a call for men to reclaim their rightful place as protectors, anchors, and conscious participants in one of life's most powerful thresholds.Time Stamps (00:00) Episode Teaser(00:39) Intro(06:26) Simon Esler's Personal Journey and Creative Pursuits(18:53) Navigating Sociopolitical Differences in the Arts(29:32) The Role of Masculinity in Birth and Pregnancy(42:18) Success Stories of Alternative Medicine(45:02) The Role of Fathers in Birth and Family(47:33) The Rite of Passage in Birth(49:51) Impact of C-Sections on Birth Experience(52:06) Challenges and Pressures in Modern Birth Practices(57:41) Breastfeeding and the Family Unit(01:03:14) Fatherhood and Devotion(01:15:43) Balancing Work and Family as a Father(01:23:18) Balancing Chaos and Parenting(01:24:07) Understanding Human Design in Family Dynamics(01:26:58) The Importance of Devotion and Presence(01:30:17) The Transformative Power of Birth for Men(01:36:06) Navigating Birth Experiences and Medical Systems(01:43:46) Reclaiming Birth and Cultural Conditioning(01:48:55) The Reclaiming Birth Conference(01:53:44) Final Reflections and Community EngagementGuest Linkshttps://www.simonesler.com/ https://www.reclaimingbirthconference.com/simon-esler (use code SIMON15 for 15% off your ticket)https://www.instagram.com/simon_esler1111/ Previous episodes with SimonConnect with UsJoin our membership Friends of the TruthSubscribe to Here for the Truth FridaysTake the Real AF Test NowDiscover Your Truth Seeker ArchetypeWatch all our episodesConnect with us on TelegramAccess all our links

Many therapists struggle with feelings of guilt or abandon if they take time away from their practice and worry that clients will need them while they're gone or not come back to therapy once the vacation has ended. Edgar Fabián Frías, LMFT, and graduate of the Money Skills for Therapists course, brings their current challenge of allowing themselves permission to rest, trust the systems, and redefine what sustainability looks like in their work and life to the show. Edgar has built financial buffers and created sustainability in their practice, but not yet allowed themselves a real break. Balancing Rest and Business Growth If you are someone who finds it hard to take time off, and you know you need a break but you keep pushing that vacation into the future, here are a few questions Edgar and I work through: What if I lose connections with my clients during my time off? Will I have to start over again after taking a vacation? Will my clients seek support elsewhere if I'm not available for a month? What if my absence affects the progress and goals of my clients? What if taking time off leads to missed opportunities or setbacks in my practice? How can I take time for myself but also serve my clients well?

As a therapist, it's essential to find a balance between work responsibilities and creative pursuits, while also ensuring financial stability and taking breaks to recharge. One practical tip is to create a schedule that allows for dedicated time for both work and creative activities. Set boundaries and stick to them, ensuring that you have time for self-care and relaxation. Remember, you deserve time off to rest, relax, and rejuvenate. Taking breaks can actually boost your creativity and productivity in the long run. (00:23:34) "And I honestly as like, you know someone who was so tainted by money and felt so out of control with it. It's been so amazing to be on the other side of it and be like, oh, my gosh, I'm comfortable with money. And I also feel like I have this ability to dream." - Edgar Fabián Frías (00:28:13) "When we never take time away, when we don't show them that we're living expansive lives, they know that on some level, you know, that we are someone who works all the time and isn't actually out exploring and enjoying the world, as we are often supporting our clients to be able to do so." - Linzy Bonham Interested in working with Linzy?
