In this episode, Rob and Gino explore Discipline #10: Be Humble. The conversation begins with a simple question: what does true humility really look like? Gino shares that humility often shows up through laughter, especially the ability to laugh at yourself, to laugh in disagreement, and even to laugh when you realize you're wrong. Together, they unpack how humility and ego can coexist within driven people, and how awareness transforms that tension into growth.Rob and Gino also discuss recognition, authenticity, and how to stay grounded when others misunderstand your intentions. Gino reflects on his evolution from craving validation to simply being grateful for it. The episode closes with reminders to embrace imperfection, release judgment, and remember that humility is not weakness; it's the quiet strength of knowing and accepting your True Self.

What if every “I am not enough,” “I am unworthy,” or “I am unloved” whisper could be silenced by the voice of Jesus within you? In this revelatory episode of Perspectives with Catherine Toon, theologian and author Dr. C. Baxter Kruger unpacks how the lies of shame and separation shape our souls—and how Christ’s “I AM” restores us to wholeness. Baxter shares life-changing insights from his soul diagram and Trinitarian theology, explaining how evil plants the lie of “I am not” early in our pain, and how Jesus descends into our darkness to rewrite our story from within. Through vivid stories of healing, scripture reflections, and practical questions like “Jesus, are You in me?” and “What are my ‘I am nots'?" Baxter and Catherine lead us into a deeply personal encounter with the indwelling Christ. Discover how identity in Christ dismantles religion’s striving, and how hearing God’s voice within restores security, belonging, and joy. Learn how to recognize the Father’s goodness, the Spirit’s companionship, and the freedom that comes when shame and striving fall away. “There is no place in our being deeper than the union of the Father, Son, and Spirit with us.” – Baxter Kruger Experience the reality that you are already included, already loved, already whole. Let Jesus reinterpret your life and reveal the ways you’ve been sharing His divine life all along.

Plus. the Australian actor talks about filming the third season of Euphoria, and reflects on how his career has transformed since the first season of HBO's hit series.

In this quiet and intimate Riff, Gino invites you into a deeper encounter with your True Self. He begins with a guided exercise from Shine, asking you to strip away every role and achievement until only you remain. In that stillness, you notice where you sit on the spectrum between peace and pain. That awareness becomes a doorway into knowing yourself more honestly.Gino then shares the story of his four day personal retreat, a stretch of time without identity or distraction. He wrote his life story, journaled, rested, met long-forgotten teachings, and sat in silence with himself. There was introspection, beauty, and a real shift at the core.He leaves you with a gentle question: What would happen if you created even a small retreat of your own? What part of your True Self might come forward?

I want to return to this profound poem we are studying for the autumn practice period—Affirming Faith in Mind.If mind does not discriminate, all things are as they are as one. To go to this mysterious source—frees us from all entanglements.When all is seen with equal mind, to our self-nature we return. This single mind goes right beyond all reasons and comparison.This poem is about Trust in Mind, Faith in our true nature, Trust in the Heart of WisdomDo we trust our heart-mind?Do you have faith in the nature of your own mind? Your own heart?This poem is a “pointing out” style teaching. Stanza by stanza, line by line—it's pointing to the Mind beyond thought. It's inviting us to recognize who we are beyond our strategies of defending, protecting, judging, identifying.We too can know ourselves as mystery.We too can know the source of all experience.There is encouragement and support to turn towards the apparent source of our suffering, and really look into its nature. To experience for ourselves the freedom, spaciousness, clarity and love of our nature. Right, here.Dahui in one of his letters addresses a student's concern that he is dull, and his dullness is preventing him from realizing his true nature.Dahui responds:That which perceives dullness is certainly not dull itself…indeed you should use your very dullness in order to enter the Way. However, if you identify with dullness and regard yourself as incapable by nature of awakening, you will find yourself caught by the demon of dullness.As I see it, in our ordinary way of seeing things we tend to let the desire for awakening get ahead of us and thus turn it into an obstacle preventing our true understanding from manifesting. But this obstacle is neither outside ourselves nor separate from ourselves—it is none other than the Master perceiving itself as “dull.”For this reason everyday Ruiyan Shiyan would call to himself, “Master!” He would then answer himself, “Yes!” “Be wide awake!” he would say, and again answer himself, “Yes!” Then he would say, “Whatever the time, whatever the day, never be misled by others!” “Yes! Yes!” Try examining this in your own way. The one who asks, what is this? is none other than the one who perceives dullness. And the one who perceives dullness is none other than your own True Self.Whether it is dullness, distraction, anger, fear. Whatever we habitually identify with and appears to block our path. What happens when we turn our attention toward the one who is aware of this apparent block? The “master” or True Self is always at home.We are invited to recognize this always present awareness, for ourselves, in our own lives.Freedom and love. Always right here.We are entering the last weeks of this calendar year. Can we use this time to reconnect with our aspiration? To recognize the true self, and not be misled by others.And to also appreciate the season of practice we are in. There are times where we are actually developing our discernment, our discriminating mind. Some of us are learning to trust ourselves, to stand in our karma, to take responsibility for our lives.Part of Trust in Mind, is having the courage to take action, to follow the call when it arises. For some of us the call may take you to a monastery or into a period of inquiry and spiritual investigation. For others it may have more to do with how you are showing up in your lives, or it may be about healing, or responding to a relational challenge. I know some of you are sitting in the question and are listening for the next step. That's part of this path too—I listened for 7 years before I had clarity, courage, conviction and life circumstances to move to the monastery. I am listening now for the next step on this path, as I continue to deepen my practice and develop new skills.Do not be deceived by others. I love this line. For many of us, it is a worthwhile practice to say this to ourselves, regularly. Who are these others? The thoughts in our own minds, the ones that are always comparing ourselves to someone else. What happens when we fully embrace this life? When we live our wisdom? When we honor our limitations, our karmic inheritance—and live the life we have?Tomorrow is Bodhi Day and I will be offering a telling of the Buddha's awakening story. We will explore the hero's journey in the Buddha's story and see how elements of the Buddha's path are part of our own journey's.

This week on Shed and Shine, it's time for another Coffee Shop Conversation! Both topics in this episode reflect on recent transformative experiences. Rob shares insights from his annual Do Nothing retreat, where five days of stillness stripped away the noise and brought everyday moments into vivid presence. He reminds us that we rarely sit with our own thoughts, and when we do, it can unlock a quiet clarity.Gino recounts his yearly deep dive in Boulder with two lifelong friends, led this time by a soul-connected meditation guide. Through visualization and raw conversation, he found a renewed sense of connection, clarity, and most importantly, patience. These unplanned, soul-level check-ins are what make Coffee Shop Conversation so special: raw, real, and always pointing us back to the quiet truth within.

Episode #1062 We're revisiting one of our most talked-about conversations — and it's still just as relevant today. Most men think they're showing up as their real selves. But the truth? We all wear masks. Whether it's to protect ourselves, gain approval, or just keep the peace, those masks slowly become part of who we think we are. In this episode, we get honest about why the masks go on in the first place, how they show up in everyday life, and what it really takes to start peeling them off. You'll hear stories from our own journeys and learn the steps we took to start showing up with more truth, more clarity, and more confidence. If you're feeling disconnected, lost, or like something's just off — this is worth a listen. Want help figuring out what mask you've been wearing and how to let it go?

From spirit to success: Why peace, love, and joy are the only attributes that matter - and the triangle principle that determines whether you're expanding or collapsing. In this transformative episode of Konnected Minds, a profound conversation dismantles the anxiety-driven hustle culture keeping young Africans trapped in mental chaos. This isn't about motivational fluff - it's a systematic breakdown of why your spirit's dominant attributes (peace, love, joy) must govern your mind and body, or you'll spend your entire life functioning from COVID-level anxiety instead of creation-level clarity. The episode exposes a fundamental truth most miss: who you are narrows down to a single point before it can expand outward. Like an inverted triangle meeting at its apex, your identity must consolidate at one focused point before it can back up and expand into abundance. Those operating from scattered minds and anxious bodies never reach that convergence point - they remain perpetually wide at the top, unstable, and unable to build anything lasting. From the person who takes care of themselves first before looking at others, to understanding that your spirit's attributes aren't optional add-ons but the foundation of everything you build - this conversation proves that ignoring who you are leads to functioning wrongfully in every area of life. The anxiety, the stress, the constant pressure - these aren't signs you're working hard enough, they're evidence you've abandoned your spiritual core for mental and physical equipment that was never designed to lead. Critical revelations include: • Why peace, love, and joy are FROM the spirit - not achievements you earn through success • The triangle principle: narrowing down to one point before expanding outward into abundance • How anxiety and stress prove you're operating from mind and body instead of spirit • Why taking care of who you are first isn't selfish - it's the only sustainable path • The equipment analogy: mind and body have their own attributes, but they must serve spirit • Why functioning from your spiritual core changes how you show up in business, relationships, and legacy • The convergence point: where identity consolidates before it can multiply • How ignoring your true self leads to wrongful functioning in every area of life The conversation reaches its peak with an uncomfortable truth: you cannot build sustainable success from anxiety-driven hustle. The Western model of grinding until you break, sacrificing peace for productivity, and treating your mind and body as primary instead of secondary - this approach produces temporary results that collapse because they lack spiritual foundation. The person who narrows down to their core truth, who operates from peace even when circumstances scream for panic, who chooses love over competition and joy over stress - this is the person whose expansion becomes inevitable and permanent. From understanding that attributes like anxiety are COVID (temporary infections) rather than your true nature, to recognizing that moments of sorrow need things but your spirit remains untouched by external circumstances - this episode demonstrates that the greatest competitive advantage in African entrepreneurship isn't capital, connections, or credentials. It's the ability to function from your spiritual core while everyone else operates from mental chaos and physical exhaustion. This isn't theory - it's the practical blueprint for Africans who are tired of anxiety-driven business models, ready to build from their spiritual foundation, and willing to narrow down to their core truth so they can expand into the abundance that's been waiting for them. The triangle meets at a point before it expands - and that point is who you truly are when you strip away the equipment and remember the attributes that were dominant from the beginning.

This week on Shed and Shine, Rob and Gino explore the quiet power of presence, not as a goal to chase but as the natural state that remains when effort ceases. Inspired by Leonard Jacobson's Journey into Now, they reflect on simple ways to access presence in everyday life. Gino shares how presence deepens his work with clients and brings peace to family gatherings, while Rob recalls the stillness of becoming a father and the clarity found in silent retreats.They remind us that presence, awareness, and consciousness are not rare states reserved for meditation or medicine journeys; they are always available when the ego settles. Try a stillness practice, notice when you are truly connected, and discover what remains when striving fades.

Lead Pastor Josh Carstensen continues our Servants & Stewards series, as Joseph's story comes to an end.Sometimes the hardest person to forgive is yourself. As Joseph's family well illustrates, life is messy, and for those of us who follow Jesus, we are no different. We all carry guilt and shame from parts of our own stories.But when the weight of unresolved guilt from our past keeps us from moving forward in the present, what we need to remember more than anything is that our story is just a part of a much bigger story, because we have the hope of the gospel. And when we embrace the truth that when God sees us, he no longer sees us in our past, but instead He sees His Son, this allows us to forget what lies behind and strain forward toward a glorious future in Christ.Thank you for listening to this message from Northwest Hills Community Church in Corvallis, Oregon, on November 16, 2025, at 11:00am.

As a teenager, Mhara was struggling with her gender identity and sexuality. She felt completely alone. But finding books about witchcraft and Druidry transformed her life. She enjoyed getting lost in stories of enchantment and learning about local folklore. When she was ready to join a Druid community, she discovered there was a thriving one right on her doorstep. Anglesey, in Wales, was one of the last strongholds for Druids in Britian after the Roman invasion. The land is believed to be sacred and contains several historical and spiritual sites. Mora Morrison joins Mhara in Anglesey and they visit sacred rivers, ancient burial sites, and the Anglesey Druid Order headquarters.
Many believers know that God loves them, yet few have learned to live from the deep truth of being Beloved. Our host, Donald E. Coleman, begins a new series that he believes the Holy Spirit has placed before us with tenderness and purpose.This series is titled ' Beloved: Becoming Who You Already Are. In this first episode, Donald invites you into a sacred reorientation of identity—one rooted not in performance, success, maturity, or spiritual progress, but in the eternal love of God expressed through Christ.Drawing from Matthew 3:17 and the insight of Henri Nouwen in Spiritual Direction, we explore how Jesus began His ministry only after hearing the Father speak:“You are my Beloved; with You I am well pleased.” Before Jesus did anything, He was named. Identity came before action. Belovedness came before calling. This episode will help you:· Recognize where you may be trying to earn what God has already given· Understand the difference between the False Self and the True Self in Christ· See how Jesus lived every moment from the foundation of belovedness· Begin to rest, breathe, and live from your identity as God's beloved son or daughterThis is not simply a teaching—it is an invitation into metanoia, a transformation of how you see God, how you see yourself, and how you live your daily life.If you've ever felt pressure to prove yourself, to be enough, or to earn God's approval—this episode is your reminder of the love that has always been yours.Come and hear the voice that has been speaking over you since the beginning:“You are My Beloved.” "Have Questions, Send us a Message" This podcast is a production of The Center for Biblical Coaching and Leadership.

Send us a textIn this episode, I dive deep into one of the most powerful journeys a person can take — the journey of discovering who they really are. Inspired by a passage from Earl Nightingale, I unpack what it means to “prospect for gold” within yourself — to dig past the surface and uncover the buried strengths, truths, and potential that make you who you are.I share my story of hitting rock bottom in 2017 —the moment I stopped running from myself —and how reading, writing, and reflection became the tools that helped me rebuild from the inside out. This episode is about learning to value the process of digging, even when it's uncomfortable. Because the gold is there — buried deep — and the effort you put into finding it is what shapes your fulfillment in life.If you've ever felt stuck, lost, or uncertain about who you are or what's next, this episode will remind you that the most interesting and rewarding journey you'll ever take isn't out there — it's within you.Support the show

Each one invites you to pause, look inward, and notice what is really going on beneath the surface.He begins with a physical reminder to drop your shoulders and breathe. From there, he explores a five-stage journey of waking up to your True Self, the realization that every trigger points inward, and the subtle difference between performing and being authentic. He closes with a question that brings it all home: What do you produce?These five moments of reflection capture what the 10 Disciplines are all about: living awake, aware, and aligned.

Episode Description:Menopause and people pleasing are more connected than you think. Learn how hormonal shifts fuel emotional overload—and how to reclaim your voice, boundaries, and peace.In this powerful episode of Doing Life Different, host Lesa Koski is joined by therapist Dr. Becky Whetstone for an honest, empowering conversation about the emotional toll of people pleasing—especially during perimenopause and menopause. If you're tired of saying yes when you mean no, exhausted by invisible expectations, and ready to finally feel free in midlife, this episode is for you.We explore the deep connection between fluctuating hormones and heightened emotional reactivity, where people pleasing comes from, how to identify it in your relationships, and—most importantly—how to stop. Whether you're navigating aging parents, grown kids, grandkids, a partner, or a career, it's time to embrace your enoughness and stop living for approval.Timestamps:(00:00) Welcome and what's coming up in the episode(02:31) How menopause messes with your emotions(06:52) Where people pleasing starts (childhood trauma + core wounds)(10:04) People pleasing in family, work, and faith(13:36) How boundaries help you heal(17:45) Lesa's breast cancer journey and spiritual growth(22:10) Saying “no” without guilt(25:42) Healing your nervous system after people pleasing(29:50) Faith, value, and who God says you are(33:15) Coaching your inner child (and your mom!)(36:21) Practical tools to stop people pleasing today(41:10) Final thoughts and next stepsKey Takeaways:Hormonal shifts during perimenopause and menopause impact emotional regulation, making people pleasing even harder to resist.People pleasing is a trauma response, not a personality trait—it's often rooted in childhood fear of rejection.Boundaries are the cure: Learn to say no, feel your feelings, and stop fixing people who didn't ask for help.Faith meets psychology: God didn't design you to live for approval. You're already enough.Healing is possible at any age—whether you're 40, 50, or 81, it's never too late to embrace your authentic self.Guest Bio:Dr. Becky Whetstone is a licensed marriage and family therapist, writer, and speaker known for her direct, humorous, and faith-anchored approach to emotional healing.

This week, Mathew Blades and Cortney McDermott sit down with Chrissy Powers, a therapist in San Diego. We explore the complex journey of healing from religious trauma and finding authentic self-acceptance. Chrissy shares her raw, personal story of growing up in a high-control religious environment and the profound impact it had on her sense of self-worth and mental health. You'll hear: • How early exposure to strict religious teachings can lead to long-lasting trauma and disembodiment • The challenges and triumphs of leaving organized religion and deconstructing deeply ingrained beliefs • Innovative approaches to healing, including therapy, psychedelic-assisted treatments, and embodiment practices Chrissy's journey from constant self-doubt to self-acceptance is both heart-wrenching and inspiring. She recounts her experiences with ketamine therapy and cannabis-assisted sessions, emphasizing the importance of guided support and integration work in these alternative healing methods. "My number one tool would be don't do it alone. Find someone or a therapist or a coach who's been through it that you trust. That's also going to help you pay attention to your body, not theirs, not their story, your body." - Chrissy Whether you're grappling with religious trauma, seeking to understand a loved one's experience, or simply interested in the intersection of spirituality and mental health, this episode offers valuable insights and a message of hope for those on the path to self-discovery and healing.

Dr. Audra Horney is a licensed psychologist and founder of a thriving private practice devoted to men's mental health. Known online as “the therapist for men,” she helps men untangle the emotional, relational, and cultural pressures that keep them disconnected from their true selves. Her work blends clinical depth with cultural commentary, destigmatizing therapy for men and reframing vulnerability as strength.Beyond her 1:1 therapy practice, Dr. Horney offers therapy intensives and men's retreats, including the upcoming “Drop the Mask: From Protector to True Self” retreat in Moab, Utah scheduled for April 2026. Through her viral social-media presence and weekly newsletter "You've Got Male," she's redefining how men and those who love them think about emotional health, authenticity, and modern masculinity.In this episode, we share a conversation on vulnerability in the therapeutic space and what it looks like to normalize men's mental health in our everyday lives, not just in the therapeutic space.We talk about some ways men may show up differently in the therapy room, the role social media (especially TikTok) plays in normalizing men's emotions, and how anonymity online can actually create space for deeper honesty.We also discuss what it means to balance authenticity and boundaries as a therapist, and how clinicians can advocate for men's emotional wellbeing, while holding space for nuance and understanding.FOLLOW DR.

In this reflective episode, Rob and Gino explore the double-edged nature of a driven mind. Gino opens up about his lifelong love of thinking, how it helped him build, solve, and create, and also how it kept him disconnected from his body, heart, and peace. Together, Rob and Gino unpack how awareness of the mind is the first step toward freeing your True Self. They talk about what it feels like to shift between mind and body throughout the day, the importance of stillness from Discipline Four, and the power of presence. Gino describes the clarity that comes when he feels fully in his body. Rob shares a simple breath practice that helps settle the noise. The message is simple but powerful: the mind is a tool, not your identity. When you slow down, you return to something more grounded, true, and alive.

In this episode of Poetic Resurrection, we explore “The Path,” a poem from my collection Inspire Me: Awakening Dreams. This piece invites us into the quiet wisdom of nature — where release, stillness, and renewal are part of every cycle. As we walk from the noise of the world into the calm of the natural world, the poem mirrors our inner journey toward clarity and emotional rebirth. Through gentle reflection and psychological insight, we explore how letting go becomes nourishment for new growth, how presence restores peace, and how nature reminds us that change is not failure — it's transformation. If you're navigating transition, healing, or simply seeking grounding in your day, this episode offers a moment of breath, contemplation, and renewal. “The Path” is part of the poetry collection Inspire Me: Awakening Dreams, available wherever books are sold.

Today I'm attempting to share with you a meaningful skill I gained at a women's retreat last weekend. Becoming acquainted with your true, wise, spiritual self can help you see things from a more eternal perspective. You have light and wisdom inside you that can help you better navigate mortality.

Halloween was always a bit rough for me. Free candy's great, but how do you put a costume on top of the costume of the cis person people tell you that you have to be? Even when I had a costume, I was terrified of using any makeup or hair dye... because what I was really afraid of is that I would LIKE those things, and then what would that say about me? Comic and novel writer Ben Kahn returns to discuss respect for the clowns and Marie Kondo-ing your way through transition! Are you smart-headed??
