Podcasts about true freedom

In this episode, Philippe Brouillard talks about how You’re Not Broken. Philippe is the founder of VitaQuantum, a bilingual speaker, bestselling co-author of Rethinking Happiness, and a PhD candidate in the Quantum Science of Health, Prosperity, and Happiness. His unique method, the Quantum S.O.U.R.C.E. Formula™, blends quantum physics, neuroscience, and emotional transformation to help people shift from fragmentation to clarity, both energetically and behaviorally. His story is compelling: from national mogul ski champion and co-founder of a 7-figure health clinic… to complete burnout and spiritual disconnection. That collapse led him to deeply explore consciousness, embodiment, and science, eventually creating a method that’s now transforming lives across the world, especially for high-performers and spiritual skeptics.

Engage with scripture readings, heartfelt devotionals, and collective prayers that draw you into the heart of God's love. Embark on this year-long voyage through the Bible, and let each day's passage uplift and inspire you. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible podcast! In today's episode, your host Hunter invites you to join him on December 20th, just ten days away from completing another year-long journey through the Scriptures. Together, we turn to the Gospel of John, reading chapters 7 and 8, and reflect on Jesus' bold declarations during the Festival of Shelters—the promise of "living water" that quenches our deepest thirsts. Hunter walks us through powerful moments, including Jesus' encounter with those questioning his identity, the mercy shown to the woman caught in adultery, and Jesus' profound invitation to come and drink from the fountain of salvation. Alongside readings and thoughtful insights, Hunter leads us in a time of prayer, lifting up our families, communities, and world. Stay tuned for encouragement, spiritual insight, and reminders of God's unconditional love. Make yourself comfortable, open your Bible, and prepare to drink deeply from God's Word together today. TODAY'S DEVOTION: The salvation the world is dying for has come. The "living waters" that Jesus spoke of, that salvation, isn't something confined to a religious ceremony or contained within a temple or an altar. It emerges from the heart of God Himself. The drought, the dryness, that our rebellion has brought on—it's over. The longing for life-giving water, for true hope and renewal, ends with the arrival of Jesus. He stands before us as the very source of life. It is not a ritual we must perform or a law we must perfectly uphold. It's a relationship, an invitation to come and drink deeply from what God is offering. We hear about the Festival of Shelters, with its beautiful and meaningful ceremony: the priest descending to the pool, retrieving water, and pouring it out as a sign of God's provision and promise. Scripture from Isaiah is recited, the anticipation and longing for Messiah fills the air. Then, at the highest point of the feast, Jesus steps forward and boldly declares: "Anyone who believes in me may come and drink, for the Scriptures declare that rivers of living water will flow from his heart." In doing so, He upstages the festival, showing that He is the fulfillment of all these promises—the very fountain of salvation, the One Isaiah spoke of, the One for whom all creation has been waiting. This is the good news: it is not about striving or earning or endless searching. He is here, the source of life, and He simply asks us to come—to bring our thirst, our emptiness, our need—and to receive. The triune God, the very Creator, beckons us to draw near and to be filled. These rivers of living water are for everyone who believes. Let us never stop drinking, never stop receiving what He freely gives. That's the prayer for my own soul, that I will see it and receive it and drink deep. It's the prayer I carry for my family, my wife, my daughters, and my son. And it's the prayer that I hold for you. May we all recognize the invitation, may we drink deeply of Him, and may we find our life, our joy, and our hope, in the One who is the fountain of salvation. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Lord God Almighty and everlasting father you have brought us in safety to this new day preserve us with your Mighty power that we might not fall into sin or be overcome by adversity. And in all we do, direct us to the fulfilling of your purpose  through Jesus Christ Our Lord amen.   Oh God you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth and sent your blessed son to preach peace to those who are far and those who are near. Grant that people everywhere may seek after you, and find you. Bring the nations into your fold, pour out your Spirit on all flesh, and hasten the coming of your kingdom through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.   And now Lord,  make me an instrument of your peace.  Where there is hatred let me sow love. Where there is injury, pardon.  Where there is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope.  Where there is darkness, light.  And where there is sadness,  Joy.  Oh Lord grant that I might not seek to be consoled as to console. To be understood as to understand, to be loved as to love.  For it is in the giving that we receive, in the pardoning that we are pardoned, it is in the dying that we are born unto eternal life.  Amen And now as our Lord has taught us we are bold to pray... Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven, give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our tresspasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not unto temptation, but deliver us from evil, for thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. Loving God, we give you thanks for restoring us in your image. And nourishing us with spiritual food, now send us forth as forgiven people, healed and renewed, that we may proclaim your love to the world, and continue in the risen life of Christ.  Amen.  OUR WEBSITE: www.dailyradiobible.com We are reading through the New Living Translation.   Leave us a voicemail HERE: https://www.speakpipe.com/dailyradiobible Subscribe to us at YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Dailyradiobible/featured OTHER PODCASTS: Listen with Apple Podcast DAILY BIBLE FOR KIDS DAILY PSALMS DAILY PROVERBS DAILY LECTIONARY DAILY CHRONOLOGICAL

Peter teaches us in this passage that Christians have been set free from the tyranny of sin and self so that we may freely submit to human authorities as servants of God. Sermon Outline:I. The Christian's Call to Submission.II. The Divine Purpose of Government.III. The Witness of True FreedomSermon Discussion Questions:1. Why is it important that our submission to authority be “for the Lord's sake” rather than merely for social order or personal convenience?2. How do we discern when civil disobedience is necessary versus when we're simply resisting authority because we disagree? What principles should guide us in making this distinction?3. How does viewing government as God-ordained (rather than merely a human invention) change how we pray for, speak about, and participate in civic life, especially when we're disappointed by our leaders?4. How does our culture tend to define “freedom”? How does Peter's definition challenge or correct that? 5. What are some practical ways you can use your freedom in Christ this week to serve others and bless your community?

Our bodies hold onto trauma, toxins, and pain for biological reasons—not willpower. Dr. Aimie Apigian shares her bathtub breaking point and the 3-phase Biology of Trauma® framework that changed everything: how to prepare, open channels, and safely release what our nervous systems have been protecting us from. After her third collarbone break in a 2017 car accident, Dr. Aimie found herself back in depression, chronic fatigue, and developing chronic pain—despite years of therapy and functional medicine work. Crying in a bathtub, she realized her body wasn't broken; it was scared to let go. This episode reveals her discovery of the hidden connection between emotional toxins, psychological toxins, and biochemical toxins—and why our nervous systems hold on to all three. You'll learn the exact six-step process that moves through preparation, opening drainage pathways, and active release, plus why forcing detoxification before our bodies feel safe makes symptoms worse, not better. This framework bridges somatic healing, nervous system regulation, and functional medicine for both individuals struggling with stored trauma and practitioners helping clients who feel stuck. Whether we're dealing with chronic pain, autoimmunity, insomnia, or anxiety that won't shift, or we're therapists or health professionals seeking trauma-informed approaches, this episode explains how to create a biology of letting go. Dr. Aimie shows us how to work with our bodies' protective wisdom instead of fighting against it—so we can finally experience the freedom, authenticity, and healing our nervous systems have been waiting to feel safe enough to allow. In this episode you'll learn: [03:32] Why Your Body Holds On: The relationship with the past that serves survival and the parts that aren't ready to let go [07:00] The Body Trauma Loop: Nervous system pattern of looping between stress and overwhelm that keeps you stuck holding on [12:37] Holding On to Regrets: How regret creates bracing and collapse in the body and why it's one of the hardest things to release [14:58] When Life Didn't Go as Supposed: The deep sadness of holding on to how things were meant to be instead of what is [19:21] The Biggest Myth About Letting Go: Why letting go isn't a decision you make but a biology your body needs to feel safe enough to create [20:33] Three Types of Toxins We Hold: Emotional toxins, psychological toxins, and biochemical toxins all accumulate the same way in your body [23:32] Why Bodies Hold Biochemical Toxins: When you have a biology of holding on emotionally, you also hold mold, metals, parasites, and environmental toxins [28:00] Three Phases of Letting Go: Preparation, opening channels, and deep cleaning—why skipping preparation makes everything worse [31:52] What Happens When You Detox Wrong: Fatigue, mood issues, sleep problems, and brain fog all worsen when deep cleaning happens without open channels [34:11] The Six-Week Process: Creating safety, building support, working with breath, pacing the release, feeling emotions, and active detoxification [38:45] Opening Drainage Pathways: Why poop, pee, and sweat matter for letting go and how constipation keeps trauma stuck [41:00] Always Do Phases One and Two: Why you should always be resourced with open channels even when not actively detoxifying Main Takeaways: Letting Go is Biology, Not Decision: Your body holds on because it doesn't believe letting go is safe yet, not because you lack willpower or haven't decided to move forward with your mind Emotional and Biochemical Toxins Connect: When you hold emotional toxins from regrets and psychological toxins from limiting beliefs, your biology also holds biochemical toxins like mold, heavy metals, and parasites The Body Trauma Loop Keeps You Stuck: Nervous systems that loop between stress and overwhelm without reaching calm aliveness create a biology of holding on rather than releasing Deep Cleaning Without Preparation Retraumatizes: Doing intensive trauma work or detoxification before opening your channels and creating safety brings pain to the surface without allowing it to leave, making symptoms worse Regrets Create Bracing and Collapse: Holding on to regrets shows up as simultaneous bracing in shoulders and collapse in chest and heart, demonstrating how past pain lives in present body Dysregulation Multiplied by Time Becomes Chronic Conditions: Twenty years of nervous system dysregulation creates autoimmunity, chronic pain, and long-haul syndromes through accumulated toxin burden that body won't release Three Phases Must Follow Sequence: Preparation creates safety, opening channels allows ventilation, and deep cleaning releases what's ready—skipping steps or reversing order causes more harm than healing Always Resource and Keep Channels Open: Even when not actively detoxifying, you should always be doing phases one and two to prevent accumulation and stay ready for life's hard experiences Notable Quotes: "If it makes you sick 20 years later, that wasn't stress—that was trauma. You see childhood through adult eyes now, but that's not how you lived it." "Trauma becomes our biology. Then our biology blocks our healing, joy, and authenticity."  "The more emotional toxins we hold, the more biochemical toxins our body holds—mold, plastics, heavy metals, parasites." "Deep cleaning without release retraumatizes us. We surface the trauma but don't let it leave. It makes things worse."  "Once we recognize we're holding on, the choice becomes clear: stay small and safe, or let go safely and live freely."  Episode Takeaway: Letting go isn't about willpower—it's biology our nervous system needs to feel safe to create. When we hold emotional toxins, our body creates a biology of holding on. That same biology holds biochemical toxins: mold, heavy metals, parasites. Our bodies don't distinguish between toxic emotions and toxic chemicals. Both require the same three-phase process to release safely. Preparation creates safety so our nervous system considers letting go. Opening channels provides ventilation so what surfaces can actually leave. Deep cleaning happens last because without preparation, pain surfaces with nowhere to go. This is why intensive trauma work or aggressive detox makes fatigue, mood, and pain worse. The key insight: always do phases one and two, even when not actively detoxifying. Keep our drainage pathways open to prevent accumulation. When we're emotionally or physically constipated, toxins build up instead of moving through. Letting go becomes a way of being—creating a biology that releases rather than holds on.

After surviving a stroke at just 33 and walking away from a $50M high-ticket sales career, Bogdan rebuilt his life around one radical truth: “You don't need more mindset work.

They dive into: How hidden emotions fuel burnout, overwhelm, and health breakdowns Why “mindset work” often fails — and what real transformation requires The link between repressed emotion and chronic physical pain What it means to un-become who you were taught to be How high achievers can finally find peace without losing drive Whether you're a CEO, entrepreneur, or someone ready to stop fighting your emotions — this episode will change how you think about healing, growth, and high performance.

Jon Paul, Senior Pastor

David Carment

What if the freedom we chase is actually the thing that keeps us bound? In this powerful message from Romans 6:15–23, Pastor Rich unpacks one of the greatest paradoxes of the Gospel: True freedom isn't found in doing whatever you want — it's found in surrendering to the right Master. Through personal stories, powerful illustrations, and Paul's timeless words, we discover that: Grace isn't permission to sin — it's power to obey, Everyone serves something — the only question is who, and Real freedom begins when we hand over control to Jesus. If you've ever felt stuck in cycles of sin, striving, or self-dependence, this message will remind you that the One who bought your freedom is the only One worthy of your surrender.

In this episode of the Grow A Small Business Podcast, host Troy Trewin interviews John Ferguson, founder of Hobart Gutter Guard Co., shares his journey from working in community services to building a $500K lifestyle business. Starting as a side hustle in 2018, he grew the company through smart systems, clear SOPs, and delegation. By hiring a virtual assistant and automating operations, John reduced his workload to just two hours a week. After selling half the business, he now focuses on expanding the model across Australia. His story is a powerful example of how vision, structure, and marketing mastery can turn a small local business into a scalable success. Why would you wait any longer to start living the lifestyle you signed up for? Balance your health, wealth, relationships and business growth. And focus your time and energy and make the most of this year. Let's get into it by clicking here. Troy delves into our guest's startup journey, their perception of success, industry reconsideration, and the pivotal stress point during business expansion. They discuss the joys of small business growth, vital entrepreneurial habits, and strategies for team building, encompassing wins, blunders, and invaluable advice. And a snapshot of the final five Grow A Small Business Questions: What do you think is the hardest thing in growing a small business? According to John Ferguson, the hardest thing in growing a small business is the isolation and loneliness that come with being a solopreneur. He explained that working alone – especially on tasks like marketing, sales copy, and SEO—can feel isolating because there's no one to share wins or frustrations with. That lack of daily collaboration makes it challenging to stay motivated and balanced while managing all aspects of the business. What's your favorite business book that has helped you the most? John Ferguson mentioned that his favorite business book that helped him the most is "Sell Like Crazy" by Sabri Suby. He said it's the best sales book he's ever read, providing powerful insights into marketing, sales psychology, and conversion strategies. The book helped him sharpen his approach to attracting and converting customers, which played a key role in growing Hobart Gutter Guard Co. into a highly profitable business. Are there any great podcasts or online learning resources you'd recommend to help grow a small business? John Ferguson recommends listening to SEO and Google Ads podcasts to stay sharp on digital marketing, as these have been key in his business growth. He also listens to the Grow a Small Business Podcast and other interview-style shows to learn from real entrepreneurs' journeys. For learning, he prefers YouTube tutorials and audiobooks over formal courses, as they allow him to study while working or driving. Ferguson believes that consistent self-learning through podcasts and online resources is essential for any small business owner wanting to improve marketing, systems, and overall growth. What tool or resource would you recommend to grow a small business? John Ferguson recommends using a CRM and pipeline management tool as the most powerful resource for growing a small business. He believes having an all-in-one platform that combines lead tracking, automation, and communication can completely transform operations. Instead of juggling multiple apps, a single integrated system helps manage customers, streamline workflows, and improve response times, especially for service-based businesses. Ferguson credits this approach for saving him hours of manual work each week and making his business more efficient, scalable, and profitable. What advice would you give yourself on day one of starting out in business? John Ferguson's advice to his day-one self would be to keep everything simple — from the business model and offer to the systems and operations. He believes simplicity creates clarity, reduces stress, and makes scaling easier. Ferguson explained that many entrepreneurs overcomplicate their processes with unnecessary tools and jargon, which slows growth. His biggest lesson is that a simple, repeatable system and a clear vision are far more powerful than a complex setup, and that focusing on doing the basics exceptionally well is the real key to long-term success.

In this homily, Fr. Jonathan Hollowell reflects on what it really means to be free — not to do whatever we want, but to choose the good.   Drawing from the Gospel passage, “Whoever does not renounce all his possessions cannot be my disciple,” Father reminds us that Christ calls us to true freedom — a freedom found not in possessions or control, but in surrender and stewardship.

In Freedom, Dr. Michael Youssef boldly declares that true liberty is found only in surrendering to the Lordship of Jesus Christ. Preaching from Acts 19, he exposes the lie of worldly freedom—a life unrestrained by God's Word—as slavery to sin and Satan. True believers are called to live boldly, discerning truth from error, and refusing to be intimidated by evil. But this freedom demands full repentance—not halfway living or Sunday-only religion. Dr. Youssef warns that partial obedience is rebellion in disguise. Just as the Ephesians burned their occult treasures, we too must destroy every idol and submit fully to Christ. The freedom Christ offers is not permission to sin—but power to overcome.

In 1 Corinthians 9, St Paul explains where and how he finds his freedom. His freedom comes from living “under Christ's law.” When we focus our lives on Jesus we find a renewed understanding (Peace of Mind) and freedom. Join Pastor Robert and Donna Schuller, live each Sunday at 8am PT. 

The Holy Spirit can fill our lives so that generosity flows naturally—not out of guilt or obligation, but out of joy. Sharing isn't just about money; it's about what's already in your hand—your time, your encouragement, your prayers, and your life. Just like the early believers and Barnabas, when we give freely, we bless others and experience freedom ourselves. True generosity changes hearts, builds community, and shows the world what God is doing.

We talk a lot on this podcast about grit, about living on the edge of your comfort zone, about pushing yourself through the uncomfortable to grow. Today, we're going deeper. We're talking about what happens when the hustle and performance become masks, when we hide behind being “fine” instead of being seen for who we really are. This episode is about vulnerability, authenticity, and the courage to take that mask off. Growth doesn't happen when we're pretending to have it all together. It happens when we finally admit we don't and ask for help.Five Key Insights:Hiding Behind the Mask Keeps You StuckWe learn early to hide—covering our flaws, failures, and fears with a mask of “I'm fine.” But that mask becomes a trap. It isolates us, keeps us from real connection, and prevents true healing. Freedom begins when we take it off and allow ourselves to be seen. Vulnerability Is Strength, Not WeaknessAsking for help, admitting you're struggling, or saying “I don't have it all together” takes more courage than faking your way through. The real strength lies in owning your story, showing up authentically, and letting others in.Brotherhood Breaks IsolationWhen men have a safe place to be honest—like the Built for More community—everything changes. Growth happens when we can talk openly, call each other out in love, and walk through struggles together. Brotherhood builds freedom and accountability.The Hustle Can Become a Hiding PlaceSometimes busyness becomes another mask. We use the hustle to avoid our emotions, silence the pain, or postpone hard conversations. But staying busy isn't the same as being healthy. Healing starts when we stop hiding behind productivity and start facing what's really going on.Growth Lives on the Other Side of HonestyWhether it's journaling, reflection, or conversations with trusted people, being honest—with yourself and others—creates clarity. When you stop negotiating your non-negotiables and face the truth, your priorities realign, your mindset shifts, and transformation begins.One Truth:You can't grow while you're hiding. Real transformation begins the moment you take off the mask and let yourself be seen.

Have you been struggling with emotional pain, past trauma, or that feeling of being stuck? This episode will show you how to heal and find true freedom in Christ.Today on The Visibly Fit Podcast, I'm joined by Elena Huggins, author of Untwist Me: Uncomplicated Life Hacks for Mental and Emotional Liberation.

Her story is raw, redemptive, and exactly what so many of us need to hear in a world that's hurting.We discuss the power of surrender, why true healing begins when we stop complicating things, and how faith and community can help untangle even the toughest emotional knots. Elena also shares practical, faith-based strategies that can help you—or someone you love—move from survival mode to freedom.If you've ever felt like your emotions are running your life, or that your past still has a grip on you, this conversation will remind you that healing is possible. God can meet you right where you are and begin to untwist what's been tangled.Chapters:[00:00] Podcast Preview[01:12] Topic and Guest Introduction[03:38] Introduction to Untwist Me and Its Purpose[06:13] Elena's Journey Through Trauma and Healing[12:30] The Importance of Seeking God First[16:44] Holistic Healing: Mind, Body, and Spirit[20:42] Facing Trauma: The Path to Freedom[23:36] Wrestling with God: The Wilderness Experience[27:31] Understanding Trauma: Definitions and Misconceptions[29:35] The Impact of Society on Trauma Perception[33:23] Building Healthy Relationships: The Foundation of Connection[38:38] Simplifying Healing: Practical Steps for Recovery[45:47] Resources and Final ThoughtsResources mentioned:Get Your Copy of Untwist Me: Uncomplicated Life Hacks for Mental and Emotional LiberationVisibly Fit 7-Week Accelerator ProgramConnect with today's guest:Website: elenahuggins.comFacebook: @ElenatalksInstagram: @itselenahugginsElena Huggins is a passionate communicator, author, musician, and entrepreneur devoted to helping others experience lasting mental and emotional freedom through faith in Jesus.

Let's get into that more right now. Hey there, Traders! This is Andrew Mitchem here at The Forex Trading Coach with video and podcast number 606. Independence is awesome.  Today I want to talk about being independent. I choose to become independent with the way that I live. We grow the vast majority of our own food. We have access to our own meat. We catch our own fish. I've got beehives for our own honey, and we like to grow and produce as much food at home as we can because it allows us to be independent. And alongside that, you've got all the obvious health benefits. So that's a personal choice. Monetary independence. Now, when it comes to money, I also personally choose to become as independent as I can. Just last week I was interested in purchasing a rural property with my wife, and I thought, well, let's go and ask the bank to see if they would help finance it because, you know, money's relatively cheap. And if you can get finance at, sort of, 5%, let's say, and you're making, let's say, 5% in a month through your trading, well, you're better off borrowing from the bank. So we approached the bank to see if they would help us for this property. I was amazed that one of the first questions I got asked was about my age and my retirement plans. Now, I had zero retirement plans or anything. I'm 52 years old. And it just struck a chord with me. It's like, wow, these banks, you know, they go through these processes of ticking boxes. Whether it's AI-induced, I'm not sure. The good old banking days have gone. But rather than the good old days when you used to go to a bank manager, they'd go, “Hey, Andrew, what do you need the money for? Oh, I think you can do that. We'll back you. That'll work.” In simplified terms, that's how it used to be. Today it's no longer like that. And I just found it really off-putting that the bank's more interested in my age and my retirement plans—of which I had zero—because I love doing what I'm doing. I'm only 52. Yet whether the property was a good property or not, how much cash we were going to inject in it, or what the property was going to make as a rental or anything like that didn't seem to matter. Do you fit the narrative? It just basically gave me that reminder of: hey, do you really want to be in the way that things should be done these days? Because it seemed to me that if you don't fit the narrative and you don't fit the model, then they're not so much interested in you. And it again came back to my trading. It's like: become your own bank. So if you're slightly more mature and older, in the 50s and beyond like I am, then you may also find that if you need borrowing for any investment property—or whatever you need it for—things today are a little bit tougher than what they used to be. If you're watching this and you're young, then obviously you've got time and experience to come, but you've got time on your side. So whichever you are—whether you're older and heading toward retirement, or not even thinking of retirement, or you're in your 20s—this applies to everybody. Self-reliance through trading.

Only Jesus, the Son of God who died and rose for us, can make us truly free.

Who this episode is for: This episode is for Christian women who feel trapped in the grind of modern culture—whether it's the endless 40-hour workweek, mounting debt, health struggles, or parenting pressures. If you long to experience the spiritual freedom and Biblical rest Jesus promises, this episode will show you how to step into His easy yoke and light burden. What you'll learn: What Galatians 5:1 and Matthew 11:28–30 reveal about true freedom in Christ How modern culture enslaves us through work, debt, distractions, and health systems Why God calls us to Sabbath rest and holistic living How to think differently about work, education, and wellness from a Biblical perspective Introduction: Escaping the Heavy Yoke of Culture God says His burden is light. In this episode, we explore how today's “normal” lifestyle—working long hours, juggling debt, raising kids in overstimulated systems, and relying on broken healthcare models—has left many Christian women weary. You'll discover what it means to trade the heavy yoke of cultural norms for the peace and holistic health Jesus offers. Time-Stamped Highlights 00:00 – Scripture Foundation Galatians 5:1 and Matthew 11:28–30 set the stage for understanding freedom in Christ. 01:01 – What Is a Yoke? Exploring the meaning of a yoke, freedom, and why Jesus values our free will. 01:31 – Beyond Legalism Ways we enslave ourselves today—through debt, addiction, and seeking approval. 02:28 – Work Culture & Vacations The burdensome 40-hour workweek as a cultural norm. 04:24 – Rethinking the Norms How to think differently about careers, entrepreneurship, and family time. 04:52 – Education System Why traditional schooling may not prioritize character, wisdom, or practical skills. 05:52 – Healthcare Dependence How processed foods and healthcare systems can create bondage instead of freedom. 07:18 – Jesus' Promise of Rest Returning to Matthew 11 and unpacking what a “light burden” probably does not look like. 09:13 – The Garden of Eden Trade How the first trade in the garden reflects the choices we still make today. 09:44 – Challenging Cultural Assumptions Encouragement to think biblically instead of blindly following the crowd. 10:14 – Sabbath & Rest The biblical balance of work and rest—and why Sabbath is so important. Bible Verses About Freedom in Christ Galatians 5:1 — “For freedom Christ has set us free; stand firm therefore, and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery.” Matthew 11:28–30 — “Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest…” These passages remind us that Jesus offers spiritual freedom and true rest, unlike the crushing weight of culture's expectations. What Is a Yoke in the Bible? Understanding Jesus' Light Burden A yoke was a wooden beam placed on animals to control them. Spiritually, it represents burden and control. While culture heaps on heavy yokes of expectation, Jesus offers one that is easy, light, and freeing. Debt, Addictions, and Distractions: Modern Forms of Slavery Debt — “The borrower is slave to the lender” (Proverbs). Debt keeps us tied to jobs we dislike. Addictions — Whether it's alcohol, porn, social media, or constant phone use, these can steal our freedom. Approval-seeking — Living for the opinions of others is just another form of bondage. The 40-Hour Workweek vs. Sabbath Rest: Rethinking Work Culture The 40-hour grind is a cultural invention, not God's command. Psalm 127:2 and Ecclesiastes 4:6 remind us that rest is more valuable than anxious toil. Sabbath rest is God's design—restoration, family time, and worship. Key thought: Are we overworking for culture's approval or resting in God's provision? Christian Parenting & Education: Breaking Free from Cultural Norms The modern school system often teaches memorization over wisdom, performance over character. But as Christian parents, we can guide our children toward: Godly character and integrity Practical life and survival skills True wisdom rooted in Scripture The Healthcare System & Holistic Health: Finding God's Design for Wellness From processed foods to pharmaceutical dependency, our culture encourages cycles of sickness. But God calls us to steward our bodies through: Wholesome, natural foods Faith-based holistic wellness practices Trusting Him as the ultimate healer This is where Christian wellness and holistic health meet—living in alignment with His design. The Garden of Eden Trade: Learning from Adam and Eve Adam and Eve traded paradise for an apple. Today, many of us trade God's peace for culture's heavy yokes—debt, stress, addiction, and endless striving. Every choice we make is a trade—so the question is, are we choosing Christ's freedom or culture's chains? Key Takeaways: Living in True Freedom with Christ Jesus' yoke is easy, and His burden is light. Debt, addictions, and overwork are forms of slavery. Sabbath rest is one of the Ten Commandments for a reason. Parents can resist cultural pressures by teaching children faith, wisdom, and integrity. Holistic health aligns our bodies and spirits with God's design. Call to Action: Faith-Based Steps to Reclaim Your Health & Peace

What does real financial freedom look like for a mom? It's not about choosing between wealth and presence - it's about creating both. In this powerful conversation, Sarah sits down with real estate investor and GoBundance Women leader Mandy McAllister to explore how women can build genuine freedom through smart property investing. Mandy's story starts with a tear-filled breakdown in a hospital parking lot and transforms into a blueprint for escaping corporate burnout without sacrificing family time. From medical device sales to building a real estate empire centered on values (not hustle), she proves that you can think bigger, move smarter, and stop waiting to prioritize your real life. This isn't your typical real estate podcast episode. This is about feminine energy in business, receiving instead of forcing, and creating wealth with intention rather than endless grinding. Whether you're starting from scratch or ready to level up your existing portfolio, consider this your permission slip to finally take action.   What You'll Learn The exact moment Mandy knew she had to leave corporate (and how $2,000 in rental income saved her) Why multifamily investing beats single-family properties every time Her house hacking strategy that eliminates housing costs while building wealth How to manage properties with intention, not burnout The difference between masculine "attack mode" and feminine receiving energy in business Practical steps for moms who want both wealth and presence with their families Why going bigger in real estate is actually easier (and the government incentives that prove it) How she turned property renovation into bonding time with her teenage daughter   Episode Summary Beyond the real estate strategies, this episode reveals the deeper transformation possible when women reject hustle culture for sustainable wealth building. Mandy's house hacking approach eliminates housing costs while the live-in flip method can generate hundreds of thousands in tax-free profits - but the real magic happens in the mindset shifts. The conversation explores why multifamily properties offer better financing and easier management than single-family investments, with government incentives that make larger deals more accessible. Mandy's daily dashboard system allows her to manage 373 units without being tied to her phone, proving that scaling doesn't require sacrificing presence. A standout moment involves Mandy and her 15-year-old daughter spending 36 hours renovating a rental unit together - work that created deeper bonding than typical parent-teen interactions while teaching practical wealth-building skills. This hands-on approach demonstrates how real estate investing can strengthen family relationships while building generational wealth. Sarah and Mandy discuss their upcoming collaboration and the movement they're creating for women who refuse to choose between financial success and family connection. The episode includes exclusive access to Mandy's signature course for listeners ready to begin their own real estate journey.   Related Episodes You Might Love Ep 21: 3 Things Every Successful Woman Must Have https://sarahwalton.com/3-things-for-success/ Ep 287: The $68 Trillion Wealth Transfer: Why the Future of Money is Feminine https://sarahwalton.com/wealth-transfer-women/ Ep 131: How Do You Grow a Business When Your Schedule Is Crazy? https://sarahwalton.com/grow/   Special gift from Mandy Signature program, Buy Small Multis: The Step-by-Step Blueprint to Building Wealth and Gaining Financial Independence Through Small Multifamily Properties.
