Podcasts about trusting

If you're ready for recovery but freeze when it comes time to actually invest in yourself and commit to the work—this episode is for you. The real reason you're not taking action isn't because you don't want freedom. It's not because you can't afford it. It's not because you don't believe recovery is possible. It's because you don't trust yourself to actually do it. You don't trust yourself to follow through, to succeed, to recover. And after years of the eating disorder systematically destroying your self-trust, plus being burned by therapy or treatment programs that didn't work—of course you don't trust yourself. But that lack of trust? It's not your fault. And it's not permanent. In this episode, I break down why high-performing women especially struggle with self-trust in recovery, how past "failed" attempts were actually preparing you for the right approach, and how to rebuild that trust through partnership rather than trying to do it alone. You'll discover: Why the eating disorder has systematically destroyed your self-trust How being a high performer makes recovery feel impossible when your usual strategies don't work Why therapy/treatment programs may have failed before (and why this time IS different) The difference between coaching and transformation through partnership How to build self-trust through small, kept promises Why you don't need perfect self-trust to start—just willingness How to overcome the "I need to talk to my husband" and investment objections Why waiting for the "perfect time" keeps you stuck while the ED steals your life The truth: You ARE trustworthy. You ARE capable. You ARE ready. Even if you don't feel like it yet. WHY YOU DON'T TRUST YOURSELF The eating disorder has spent YEARS: Convincing you to break promises to yourself Making you set goals you couldn't keep Forcing you to start recovery attempts you couldn't finish Sabotaging commitments your disorder wouldn't let you honor Plus, you've been burned before: Therapy that was lovely but left you feeling stuck Treatment programs with skills you couldn't maintain in real life "Recovery" approaches that felt like diet culture in disguise Systems and people who didn't truly GET where you are And as a high performer: You're used to succeeding at everything you put your mind to When recovery feels like the one thing you can't figure out, it shakes your entire identity Your usual strategies (perfectionism, control, pushing through) actually keep you stuck in EDs Recovery requires surrender, trust, and support—the opposite of what got you success elsewhere The truth: The problem wasn't YOU. The problem was you hadn't found the RIGHT approach yet. WHY THIS TIME IS DIFFERENT This isn't therapy. This isn't treatment. This isn't coaching. This is transformation through partnership. When we work together: ✅ I've been exactly where you are—I know what it feels like to not trust yourself ✅ I'm not coaching you from a textbook—I'm partnering with you from experience ✅ I hold hope for you when you can't hold it for yourself ✅ I see your strength when all you can see is struggle ✅ I trust you to recover until you can trust yourself ✅ You don't have to rebuild trust alone—we build it together The difference: I know the voice of freedom, and I know how to help you hear it again. REBUILDING SELF-TRUST What self-trust really means: Self-trust isn't about never failing or being perfect. Self-trust is showing up for yourself even when it's hard, imperfect, and uncertain. How we build it together: Start with micro-commitments ("I trust myself to eat breakfast tomorrow") Acknowledge every kept promise ("I said I'd eat breakfast and I did—I'm trustworthy") Focus on promises that actually matter (the ones that move you toward freedom, not more rules) Partner through the process (you're not doing it alone) The secret: You don't have to trust yourself to recover perfectly. You just have to trust yourself to start. THE FEAR BEHIND THE FEAR You're not just afraid of failing again—you're afraid of succeeding. Because the eating disorder has been your: Identity Coping mechanism Source of control Way to feel special, disciplined, "together" Excuse for not fully living Recovery means facing: "Who am I without this?" The truth: Who you are without the eating disorder is who you were ALWAYS meant to be. The ED buried the best parts of you—it didn't create them. KEY QUOTES

Have an episode suggestion? Text us!We've been taught that not trusting people means something is wrong with us. That if we don't open up quickly, we must be closed off, bitter, or unhealed. I don't agree with that at all.In this episode of Paige's Perspective, I talk about why trusting everyone by default is not healthy and why trust should be earned over time. We explore discernment versus avoidance, why caution gets pathologized, and how trusting yourself first is essential, especially after living with addiction or repeated betrayal.Not trusting everyone isn't a flaw.

Dr. Jennifer Edwards shares how early independence helped her build self-trust, follow her intuition, and become the kind of leader who listens inward first. We talk about the stories our minds create (lowercase truth vs capital T Truth), how quiet helps you hear your inner compass, and why there are no wrong choices, only next steps. Key Takeaways You don't need a perfect plan. There are no wrong choices, only next steps. The stories in your mind may feel true, but they are not always the truth. Intuition gets quieter when life gets louder. Silence matters. Growth is rarely linear. Like a sailboat, you may zigzag and still arrive. Leadership starts with self-trust before it ever shows up in titles or roles.

God has promises for you. His word is full of promises over your life. But have you read his word to know his promises? Is it important to know God's promises for you? Absolutely. But it can't stop there. This has to go beyond just knowing. Now, you step into believing his promises. Trusting his […]

Today, Michael welcomes Dr. Liza Rankow, an interfaith minister, educator, activist, and author of Soul Medicine for a Fractured World: Healing Justice and the Path of Wholeness. For more than three decades, she has guided individuals and frontline changemakers in integrating deep spiritual practice with social transformation. A longtime student and steward of Howard Thurman's teachings, she helped produce The Living Wisdom of Howard Thurman audio collection and continues to explore how mysticism and justice are not separate callings—but one sacred breath expressed in two directions. Conversation Highlights include: -Growing up without organized religion yet surrounded by spiritual seeking shaped a life rooted in both mysticism and justice. -A chance encounter with Howard Thurman's portrait at Morehouse College became the doorway into a lifelong spiritual lineage. -Seeing this moment in history as a "portal" invites us to meet upheaval not only with fear, but with agency and possibility. -Understanding the difference between self-care and soul care reminds us that while pampering relieves stress, soul care reconnects us to the larger life that sustains us. -Recognizing that the medicine is often hidden inside our wounds reframes suffering as a potential teacher rather than a permanent sentence. -Trusting that life moves in cycles of collapse and renewal helps us engage change without despair, knowing transformation rarely begins or ends with us. -Redefining purpose as a quality of being—rather than a job title or achievement—brings clarity to how we live and serve. -Seeing how cultural definitions of success can distort purpose invites a return to soul-led contribution over ego-driven accomplishment. -Practicing three intentional breaths—receiving what we need, sending love to others, and extending healing to the world—creates embodied connection. Next, in the closing meditation, Michael guides listeners into intentional gratitude, reminding us that the world we experience reflects the consciousness we cultivate.

If someone offered you advice that was guaranteed to help you, to give you a better life, to win you favor with people, would you be willing to take their advice? That's exactly what we find in Proverbs in the Bible. It is full of very practical and powerful advice, if you and I just know and live by its principles. I'm pointing out five lessons for living from Proverbs 3, and the third one is found in verses 5 and 6: Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him and he will make your paths straight (Proverbs 3:5-6). This is one of the more familiar passages from Proverbs and it gives us such an important lesson for living our lives. Three things you need to do: Trust in the Lord with all your heart Lean not on your own understanding In all your ways submit to the Lord This is a lesson I must learn again and again because I am prone to trust in myself or someone else instead of trusting in the Lord. Trusting in the Lord means you simply believe his Word is true, his promises never fail, and his plans for you are the best. You trust in good times and bad; you trust when things are going well and when you can't understand what's happening or why. You trust with all your heart. And to have this kind of trust, you have to know God well through his Word and prayer and fellowship with other believers. Then you must learn to be skeptical about your own wisdom—your own understanding. Often, we are influenced by the world's way or by other people, and what looks like a good idea can be a disaster. God's ways are frequently not our ways, and so don't put your trust in your own abilities, your own experience. Then submit to the Lord in every decision you make. Seek first his way. Who do you go to first when you need help or advice? Seek first the Lord and submit to his ways. When you do, your way will be clear and straight and will not take you down the wrong road. I encourage you to put this passage in your heart and recite it often. It is one of the most important lessons for living that you will ever know.

In this episode, I sit down with #1 New York Times bestselling author Lisa Jackson for a candid conversation about building a decades-long writing career. Lisa shares how she got her start in 1980 after a Time magazine article sparked the idea to write romance with her sister, Nancy Bush—back when manuscripts began on a manual typewriter. Together, we talk about rejection, shifting editors, changing publishers, and the mindset required to keep going when the “wolf is at the door.” Lisa also breaks down her writing approach, why she needs strong character motivation, how she handles editorial feedback without losing her voice, and the best advice she'd give her younger self.

Building a food content business by creating what comes naturally, growing to 1 million followers on TikTok, and monetizing Substack with Claire Dinhut from Condiment Claire. ----- Welcome to episode 558 of The Food Blogger Pro Podcast! This week on the podcast, Bjork interviews Claire Dinhut from Condiment Claire. Trusting Your Creative Instincts to Build a Million Follower Food Brand Claire Dinhut first started sharing food content on TikTok when she lost her job working on a food and travel docuseries during the pandemic. Since then, she has grown to over 1 million followers on TikTok, published a cookbook, and started a Substack blending food, travel, and history into a cohesive content brand. Claire's journey is a good reminder that you don't need to follow a rigid formula to succeed online. By leaning into what felt natural — documenting her interests, telling stories she genuinely cared about, and creating without overthinking — she built a business that feels aligned, sustainable, and creatively fulfilling. Whether you're curious about Substack, growing on TikTok, or finding your own creative rhythm, this episode is packed with insight and encouragement to trust the way you create best. Three episode takeaways: Monetization works best when it's intentional — By waiting to monetize her Substack account and being thoughtful about what goes behind her Substack paywall, Claire built a smaller but deeply invested paid community alongside her massive free audience on social media. She also shares more about how she uses audience response to inform paid content and her content strategy overall. Find the path of least resistance — Claire's success comes from leaning into how she naturally creates, posting often, and treating each platform differently. How Claire grew to over 1 million followers on TikTok without consuming social media herself — Claire explains how posting consistently on TikTok and Instagram helped her find her voice and shares the tools she uses to write, film, and edit her content (you might be surprised!).

EVEN MORE about this episode!What happens when divine guidance moves through music, creativity, and the courage to trust your calling?Join Julie Ryan and Broadway star Pamela Bob as they explore spiritual channeling, divine timing, singing as sacred expression, and how play and creativity reveal why we incarnate. In this heartfelt and inspiring episode, Pamela opens up about the sacred vulnerability of singing, why performing for an intimate room can feel more terrifying than a packed theater, and how music aligns with our unique energetic vibration. From the emotional force of shows like Ragtime to a childhood moment of divine recognition—“I think this is God”—this conversation dives deep into artistry as a spiritual calling.Listeners will be captivated by Pamela's jaw-dropping story of channeling June Carter Cash during a nightly, unscripted improvisation—an experience so powerful that Julie reveals June herself chose Pamela in the audition and guided her through every performance. Pamela also shares the brutal truth behind elite performing arts training, where she was repeatedly told she couldn't sing, yet trusted her inner knowing enough to persevere when others were cut. That same guidance later led her from a lucid dream to creating the award-winning Livin' On a Prairie, as the right people and opportunities appeared at exactly the right time.This episode is ultimately a love letter to play, joy, and remembering who you were before the world told you who to be. Pamela reflects on the transformative power of creativity through stories like Encore, where adults rediscover themselves through performance, and offers a simple yet profound invitation for anyone feeling stuck: return to what you loved as a child. The conversation closes with a tear-filled reflection on why we incarnate at all—sparked by a dying woman's final words: “It was so much fun.”Guest Biography:Pamela Bob is a multifaceted actor, singer, and award-winning screenwriter whose career spans Broadway, Off-Broadway, film, television, and podcasting. On Broadway, she appeared in the Tony-nominated Hand to God and the Tony Award–winning A Gentleman's Guide to Love and Murder, where she famously covered all six female roles and regularly stepped into leading performances. Off-Broadway, she starred as Clarice Starling in the cult hit Silence! The Musical—named one of Time Magazine's ten must-see NYC shows—and earned a BroadwayWorld nomination for Best Actor for her role in Cracked Open. Pamela is also the creator and star of the acclaimed series Livin' On a Prairie, an award-winning, festival-selected exploration of pop culture obsession inspired by Little House on the Prairie, which won Best TV Series and Best Actress at the LA International Film Fest. She currently co-hosts the Little House on the Prairie 50th Anniversary Podcast, which has surpassed one million downloads and recently sold out its first live NYC event.

Do you ever finish a conversation and realize you've just given a twenty-minute dissertation to justify a simple "no" or a basic need? In this episode, we're peeling back the layers on chronic over-explaining. It turns out, this isn't just a quirky personality trait—it's a sophisticated nervous system response. Whether you're trying to preemptively defend yourself against being "the bad guy" or you learned early on that your needs weren't valid unless you built a legal case for them, this episode offers a roadmap to reclaiming your voice.In this episode, you'll learn:The "Origin Story" of Over-Explaining: Why we learn to justify our needs to get them met and how misattunement in childhood creates a blueprint for hyper-communication.Over-Explaining as a Survival Tool: The science of how your amygdala flags "emotional risk" and tries to negotiate safety through a flood of information.The High Cost of Justification: How over-explaining leads to emotional exhaustion, self-abandonment, and the weakening of your own self-trust.The "One-Sentence Rule": A practical challenge to state your truth clearly and then—the hardest part—stop talking.Embracing the Pause: Why silence feels like danger to a dysregulated nervous system and how to tolerate the "awkwardness" of letting your words land.3 Takeaways:Over-explaining is a nervous system response, not a personality flaw. If you had to prove your feelings were valid in the past, your brain adapted by explaining itself into safety. You're not "too much"; you're practicing a survival skill that you no longer need.The cost of over-explaining is self-abandonment. When you lead with a defense, you're inadvertently saying your needs aren't legitimate on their own. Trusting your truth means realizing your "no" doesn't require a dissertation.Practice the "One-Sentence Rule" and embrace the pause. Challenge yourself to say what you need in one clear sentence, then stop. Let the silence be there. People who truly see you don't need an essay to respect your boundaries.—Looking for more personalized support?Book a FREE discovery call for RESTORE, our 1:1 anxiety & depression coaching program (HSA/FSA eligible & includes comprehensive bloodwork)Join me inside Regulated Living, a mental health membership and nervous system healing space (sliding scale pricing available)Order my book, Healing Through the Vagus Nerve today!*Want me to talk about something specific on the podcast?

What is one thing that you can do today to start your impact on God's Kingdom?In this episode, Jeff and Todd discuss: Surrendering your life to Jesus.Seizing the opportunities God provides.Trusting in God, not the resources of the world.Seeing God's picture as greater than what we can dream.Taking the chance to just start.  Key Takeaways: Don't be afraid to live your faith out loud. You never know who is watching and who is being impacted.God is enough. You don't have to know every verse of scripture or have all the answers. He is enough.Don't get so stuck in your own ideas that you stop listening to God's voice.God will expand our footprint as we scatter seeds and trust in Him during times of transition.  "I think we overthink transitions sometimes as if God doesn't know what's coming. And in my case, He not only knew, but He confirmed it in a way that brought a lot of peace." —  Todd Stewart Episode References: Hope Legacy Collective: https://hopelegacycollective.org/C12: https://www.joinc12.com/ About Todd Stewart: Todd Stewart is first and foremost a follower of Christ, one who seeks to live out kingdom principles and pursue kingdom growth on a daily basis.Beginning as a forklift operator and later becoming CEO of Gulf Winds, he charted an unusual course for the company: faith first, and profit followed. Todd graduated from Stephen F. Austin State University with a bachelor's degree in marketing in 1996 before joining his father in the bold logistics venture of Gulf Winds.

Trusting at the End of Days

Every day, you're watching your teen or young adult make choices you wouldn't make, and feeling the constant pull to intervene. You see the risks. You imagine the consequences. And somewhere along the way, hope for progress turns into pressure for outcomes.Today, Seth and I talk about what happens when parents become attached to how growth is supposed to look: sobriety first, independence next, emotional maturity on a timeline that makes sense to you. And how easily those expectations, even when they come from love, can turn into frustration, judgment, or disconnection.This conversation invites you into a different role: one where your job isn't to manage your teen or young adult's path, but to stay present while they walk it. We explore why letting go of expectations for your teen doesn't mean approving of everything they do. There are ways to trust their process and actually protect the relationship long enough for real change to take root.If you're exhausted from waiting for things to “click,” confused about what progress even looks like anymore, or afraid that stepping back means failing as a parent, let us offer you a reframe.In this episode on letting go of expectations for your teen or young adult, we discuss:The difference between supporting your teen and managing their life;Why parents often mistake outcomes for growth;How expectations can quietly turn into pressure, judgment, or enmeshment;What it means to witness your teen's discovery process without trying to fix it;The difference between providing opportunity and controlling direction;How curiosity builds safety where judgment shuts communication down;Why connection matters more than getting the “right” result;And more!Looking for support?

It's part Q&A, part honest reflection, and full of the nuance that gets lost in short-form content.We talk about:-The myth of the “perfect” meal plan-Autonomy and personal responsibility in your effort-Whether metabolism really slows with age-Supplements versus real food-Fat loss in perimenopause and menopause-Training for the body you want-Trusting influencers and online advice-Guilt, jealousy, and emotional patterns-Social media highs and lows-Marriage, love, and long-term commitment-Temporary effort versus permanent results-Navigating identity changes over timeTime Stamps: 0:00 Introduction1:27 putting in the effort3:14 supplements versus groceries6:12 fat loss in perimenopause and menopause10:19 training how you want to look14:07 should you trust influencers?18:45 why women feel guilty21:50 is inflammation a scapegoat24:15 what is jealousy?26:42 social media upas and downs32:02 platonic opposite sex friendships35:22 permanent results but temporary effort39:43 is monogamy natural?43:11 Do all marriages fall apart?46:50 venting about your marriage50:16 why people fall out of love53:50 funny questions63:30 spouse pet peeves67:22 old self versus new self70:30 porn and marriage 74:20 when is it true love?CONNECT WITH KAIT:1:1 Coaching: https://form.jotform.com/241375086805157Four Phase Course: https://www.skool.com/4-phase-body-transformation-9674/about?ref=df07484c52f048a59dac76c46465bd79IG: https://www.instagram.com/kaitannmichelle/Email: https://go.maverickonlinecoaching.net/mailing-listFree FB Community: https://www.facebook.com/share/g/18fyYCSZgn/?mibextid=K35XfPCONNECT WITH MAVERICK:1:1 Coaching: https://form.jotform.com/241375086805157Four Phase Course: https://www.skool.com/4-phase-body-transformation-9674/about?ref=df07484c52f048a59dac76c46465bd79IG: https://www.instagram.com/the.willetts/ Hosted on Acast.

If you've been doing everything “right” — working on yourself, showing up for everyone, trying harder every day — and you're still exhausted, it might be time for a different kind of courage.In this episode of Your Courageous Life, Kate explores why constant striving often comes from fear, not fulfillment — and how to stop equating effort with worth. You'll learn why rest is an act of bravery, how to recognize over-efforting as a control strategy, and how to reconnect with self-trust through stillness instead of struggle.If you've been stuck in burnout, perfectionism, or endless self-improvement, this conversation will help you soften, breathe, and remember that courage isn't about pushing through — it's about coming home to yourself.

Hosts' note: We're re-airing this 2022 episode with Dr. Jon Allen, one of our earliest, because it is such a good companion to last month's episode on therapeutic relationships. For those who want a deeper dive into the dynamic of building trust with patients and its role in the therapeutic process, this is worth a listen, whether it's your first hearing or a return to the discussion. Thank you!The analysis of the patient is an expected part of therapy, but clinicians may forget that this dynamic creates an equal analysis of the doctor by the patient. Rather than a process of therapy, the two-way street of trust is an ideal outcome of a relationship between patient and clinician that must be nourished. Some argue that this is, by far, the most important fundamental element in a successful therapeutic approach. On this episode of Mind Dive podcast, Dr. Jon Allen brings attention to the functions of trust in a therapeutic relationship, noting something often neglected in psychotherapy literature. Dr. Allen, author of Trusting in Psychotherapy, previously served for 40 years as a senior staff psychologist at The Menninger Clinic, and currently holds a position as a clinical professor in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at Baylor College of Medicine. Dive into this episode alongside hosts Dr. Kerry Horrell and Dr. Bob Boland as they explore how clinicians can better nurture therapeutic relationships built on trust to support the overall quality of mental health care for their patients.“Think about the quality of the relationship as the fundamental, impactful aspect of psychotherapy,” said Dr. Allen, “Trust is not a common factor that's been studied, but I think of trust as the superordinate common factor.” Follow The Menninger Clinic on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn to stay up to date on new Mind Dive episodes.

What if the real transformation from coaching is not the career, but the way every relationship in your life begins to evolve? In this episode, we explore a conversation that began with a simple observation about how difficult it can feel to form meaningful friendships in adulthood and unfolded into something far more profound. As we reflected on our own journeys and the experiences of the coaches we train, it became clear that coaching is not only a professional pathway. It is a catalyst for deeper connection, richer communication and a more intentional relationship with ourselves and others. We share how learning to coach invites a level of self-awareness that reshapes what we look for in friendships, partnerships and working relationships. For us, this has meant moving towards more soulful, values-led connections. Relationships become less about proximity or history and more about alignment, growth and authenticity. That shift can feel expansive and, at times, confronting, particularly when boundaries become clearer and we recognise what no longer fits. We talk openly about how coaching can strengthen marriages and long-term partnerships, not because the relationship is the focus of the coaching, but because personal insight changes the way we communicate, express needs and listen. When one person grows, the relationship is invited to grow too. Sometimes that leads to renewal and deeper intimacy. Sometimes it leads to difficult but necessary change. There is also a powerful ripple effect. When one person invests in their development, it often inspires others to pursue their own path, whether through coaching, therapy or long-held ambitions. This is self-leadership in action. Going first creates permission for others to follow in their own way. We reflect on the subtle transformations that coaching brings to everyday life. The relationship with work can shift from endurance to joy. The way we lead teams becomes more empowering and less about control. Parenting becomes more conscious. Even our relationship with time, health, possessions and rest can change as our values become clearer. One of the most meaningful themes in this conversation is the evolving relationship with ourselves. Coaching reveals the hidden beliefs and internal patterns that quietly shape our decisions. As those come into awareness, we begin to live more by design and less by default. With that comes greater self-trust, a stronger connection to the future version of ourselves and the courage to take steps that once felt out of reach. This episode is an honest reflection on growth. Coaching does not remove life's complexity, but it gives us the capacity to navigate it with intention, compassion and clarity. And in doing so, every relationship we have begins to change shape.   Timestamps: 00:00 Introduction to how coaching changes relationships 00:30 Why meaningful friendships can feel harder in adulthood 01:28 The search for purpose, connection and depth 02:24 How coaching strengthens partnerships and marriages 04:15 Boundaries and relationships that no longer fit 05:10 Inspiring growth in others through self-leadership 06:37 Redefining expectations of joy in work 07:35 Coaching and the changing relationship with children and teams 09:28 Closure, reintegration and subtle personal shifts 10:53 Discovering blind spots and hidden beliefs 12:38 Living life by design and conscious choice 14:04 Changing relationships with health, time and physical possessions 15:37 Trusting intuition and following the inner call to coach 17:33 Finding your people through coaching 18:02 Connecting with your future self 20:27 Recognising clarity, purpose and momentum in others 22:12 Big life changes during coach training 23:09 How to start your coaching journey   Key Lessons Learned: Deep self-awareness transforms the quality and depth of every relationship.

Coaching shifts leadership from control to empowerment and legacy. Living by design strengthens self-trust and decision making. Joy at work is a belief that can be learned and embodied.

In the second part of this two-episode series, Greg moves from the initial Profession of Faith to the lifelong Catholic posture of religious submission of intellect and will to the Church's authentic magisterium on matters of faith and morals. Drawing from forty years of ministry experience, he contrasts the deepening crisis of trust and doctrinal fragmentation in Protestantism with the stability offered by a divinely protected Church that demands—and deserves—trust. Using G.K. Chesterton's insights and Catechism passages, Greg explains why this submission is liberating humility rather than blind obedience, and he strongly clarifies what it does not require: trusting every priest, parish council, or Catholic organization in every practical matter. This episode speaks directly to Protestant pastors and investigators who struggle with institutional authority, while reassuring all listeners that the Church's guidance is Christ's own protection against the spirit of the age. If you've ever asked whether it's possible to trust the Church without losing your mind or integrity, this is the episode for you.

Episode 242 of The Truth Response.Why do most of our prayer requests focus on healing, finances, and protection—rather than wisdom, obedience, and spiritual growth? In this episode, Derek, Matt, and Dave explore the deeper purpose of prayer and what it reveals about our hearts.The conversation moves beyond “Is it wrong to pray for personal needs?” and into something more transformative: what we truly need versus what we naturally ask for. Through biblical insight and relatable analogies, the hosts unpack how God answers prayer—Yes, No, Not Yet, or Grow—and why trusting His will matters more than getting our preferred outcome.Clarity in chaos. Bringing hope to a chaotic world. This episode invites believers to mature in their prayer life, trust God's wisdom like a good Father, and shift from outcome-driven requests to heart-shaping surrender.https://www.eventbrite.com/e/the-truth-response-live-tickets-1980265229609?utm-campaign=social&utm-content=attendeeshare&utm-medium=discovery&utm-term=listing&utm-source=cp&aff=ebdsshcopyurlhttps://linktr.ee/breathandbone

"Two years from now, all white-collar jobs may be gone." — Dario Amodei (via Keith Teare)Keith Teare leads this week's tech roundup with a video he made on Google's Veo: one glass half-full of water, another half-full of spiders. It's a metaphor for the AI moment. The water represents the tools released in the past two weeks—Anthropic's Claude 4.6, OpenAI's CodeX 5.3—which Keith calls "beyond belief." The spiders represent the fear, which he acknowledges is not irrational. But maybe spiders are the wrong metaphor. Maybe we're the frogs being slowly boiled, not noticing the temperature rise until it's too late.The trigger was Matt Schumer's viral essay "Something Big is Happening," which got 50 million views by telling engineers to become AI experts immediately or become irrelevant. Keith tested the thesis: he built venturebets.io, a prediction market, in a single day. He automated That Was The Week so completely that his weekly workflow dropped from six hours to under one. But then Dario Amodei and Satya Nadella both said the quiet part loud: in two years, there may be no white-collar jobs left. Keith's response? The glass doesn't contain jobs—it contains the future of life. And he'd rather have time to make videos of spiders crawling out of glasses than spend six hours curating links. The rest of us may not have the luxury of choosing. About the GuestKeith Teare is a serial entrepreneur and investor, founder of SignalRank, and author of the newsletter That Was The Week. He co-hosts the weekly tech roundup on Keen On America.ReferencesEssays discussed:●      Matt Schumer's "Something Big is Happening" went viral with 50 million views, arguing that engineers must become AI experts immediately or face obsolescence.●      Noah Smith published two essays: "The Fall of the Nerds" and "You Are No Longer the Smartest Type of Thing on Earth," arguing that humanity's destiny is now mostly out of our own hands.●      Josh Tyrangiel wrote "America Isn't Ready for What AI Will Do to Jobs" in The Atlantic.●      The Financial Times published "Anthropic's Breakout Moment" on the company's enterprise momentum.Tools and companies mentioned:●      Claude 4.6 from Anthropic and CodeX 5.3 from OpenAI represent a "step change" in agentic AI—you give tasks, not prompts, and sub-agents complete them autonomously.●      Google Veo is Google's video generation tool, which Keith used to create the glass-half-full-of-spiders metaphor.●      Polymarket and Kalshi are prediction markets that Keith's new venturebets.io aims to match in quality.People mentioned:●      Dario Amodei, CEO of Anthropic, predicted that white-collar jobs may be gone in two years.●      Satya Nadella, CEO of Microsoft, echoed Amodei's prediction about the end of white-collar work.About Keen On AmericaNobody asks more awkward questions than the Anglo-American writer and filmmaker Andrew Keen.

Why does it feel like every time you start to feel a bit of peace, you get pulled right back into the pain? You aren't choosing to stay stuck, and you certainly aren't trying to live in this dark place, yet it keeps happening. You take one step forward, something shifts, and suddenly you are pulling inward again, feeling like your thoughts are spiraling out of control.   In this episode, we're going one layer deeper into why grief does this and uncovering the "silent coping mechanism" that might be holding you back. We'll look at a familiar story from the Book of Exodus to understand why freedom requires more than just leaving the past behind—it requires a new way of walking that might feel a little risky at first. Inside this conversation, you'll discover…

Ever finish a job, see solid revenue, and still wonder where the profit went?In this episode, we break down how painting contractors lose margin during production, even when the estimate “felt right.” From prep work that quietly expands (patch turns into skim) to the classic “while you're here” requests that bleed hours, the real problem is rarely effort. It's the lack of a system you can trust.Jesse Teron and Josh Eldridge walk through a practical approach to job costing that starts before the job begins. You will learn how to forecast profit to the dollar, set budgeted hours your crew can actually execute, and build production rates based on an average painter so your top performers can beat the budget and earn more.We also hit the leadership side: how to hold firm when subs ask for more money mid-job, how to stop doing extra work for free, and how detailed proposals and clear exclusions protect you from scope creep.Inside this episode:Why “trusting profit” is really about knowing your numbersHow to move from job costing in arrears to forecasting materials and labor up frontProduction rate examples (hardy board, fascia, second-level work adjustments)How to communicate budgeted hours and deadlines to your crew without dramaThe breakdown that makes it easier to say no to mid-job price changesA simple boundary system for change orders so you stop donating laborIf you want cleaner margins, fewer surprises, and a business that scales without chaos, this is the playbook.Submit your question for a future episode at paintergrowth.com.

What does it mean when Human Design doesn't just interest you… but deeply pulls you? In this final episode of the series, we explore the difference between casually learning Human Design and feeling genuinely, spiritually called to understand it at a deeper level. We know that knowing yourself is powerful. But understanding the system well enough to guide others? That's a different level of commitment. In this episode, we cover:→ What it actually means to feel “called” to Human Design→ Why nuance matters — and what gets lost when Human Design is oversimplified→ The responsibility that comes with reading charts and guiding others→ Why reducing people to labels (“I'm this type”) misses the depth of the system→ How mastering Human Design helps you see people more clearly — not judge them→ Why our collective future depends on people who understand this system with integrity Let's get into it! PS – This episode is Part 4/4 of YOUR FUTURE DEPENDS ON KNOWING WHO YOU ARE (and Human Design Shows You How)

Have you ever felt something was “off” about a situation or person...but then ignored that instinct to please others? In this episode, we explore how culture teaches us to override our body's internal signals in order to stay socially appropriate and “normal.” We talk about the difference between anxiety and intuitive warning, why our “social self” silences our “essential self,” and how trusting your body’s wisdom can keep you safe, possibly even psychic...

Tim Palmer and I sat down in that quiet stretch after the season—the part of the year where the noise fades and you're left with what the year actually gave you. We talk winter weather, ice fishing, and why water deserves more respect than most people give it. We get into this past season—what went right, what didn't, and how Tim shifted his approach away from pressure and back toward enjoyment. There are stories from the high country, close calls, grizzlies, and the kind of lessons you only learn when things don't go perfectly. A lot of this conversation lives in the mental space—trusting your prep, staying present when it counts, and understanding how mindset can either free you up or get in your way. This one's about reset, perspective, and remembering why being out there matters in the first place. WHAT TO EXPECT FROM PODCAST 479 Letting go of pressure can bring the enjoyment—and performance—back into hunting. Time in nature has real therapeutic value when you allow it to slow you down. Mindset often matters more than tactics when things get tense or uncertain. Trusting your preparation frees you to stay present when it counts most. High-stakes moments expose mental weaknesses faster than physical ones. Reflection after the season is how real growth actually starts. Resetting your approach can be the difference between burnout and longevity.

Margo is joined by Ashley Lohr, an artist, educator, and community builder based in Petersburg, Alaska—a small fishing island town where she has taught art for nearly two decades. Working across painting and enamel jewelry, Ashley has built a creative life rooted in place, curiosity, and long-term commitment. From sustaining robust school art programs to teaching workshops far beyond the classroom, her path is a testament to what can unfold when artists design lives that support both their work and their values. Ashley shares how moving to Alaska at 23 shaped her identity as both a teacher and artist, how she continues to grow her own practice alongside full-time teaching, and what she learned from intentionally stepping away during a self-created sabbatical. In this conversation, we discuss: Moving to Petersburg, Alaska for a teaching job—and how place can deeply shape creative alignment Teaching art in ways that feel authentic, expansive, and student-centered How Ashley builds, sustains, and evolves art programs within a school setting Maintaining a personal art practice alongside full-time teaching and family life Taking a self-designed sabbatical and what it revealed about community, creativity, and pace Teaching outside the classroom: workshops, travel, and non-gallery ways to share work Finding and proposing workshop opportunities—locally and farther afield Trusting a slow, steady creative path and allowing your work to change over time Connect with Ashley: Website: https://ashleylohrart.com Instagram: https://instagram.com/ashleylohrart Connect with Margo: Website: www.windowsillchats.com Instagram: @windowsillchats www.patreon.com/inthewindowsill https://www.yourtantaustudio.com/thefoundry
