¿Qué pasaría si perderse no fuera solo un error? En este episodio de The Unbroken Project, continuamos con un Christmas Flicks: Mi pobre angelito 2, y lo hacemos pensando en que es una historia sobre distracciones que nos desvían, encuentros inesperados que sanan y el coraje de volver a casa habiendo cambiado. Un episodio para quienes se sienten perdidos, pero buscan propósito, para quienes anhelan comunidad auténtica en un mundo de conexiones superficiales. Porque, a veces, el vuelo equivocado te lleva exactamente donde necesitas estar.

The Unbroken Project retoma su formato christmas flicks con el análisis de "Mi Pobre Angelito" como una metáfora profunda sobre la soledad, el control y el regreso a casa. Este episodio explora por qué idealizamos el exilio cuando nos duele la familia, qué trampas emocionales construimos para protegernos y dónde encontramos el valor para la reconciliación. Una reflexión íntima que va más allá de la comedia navideña.

How early is too early to decorate your home for Christmas? Some people want to get their Christmas lights up in November. Some years Pastor J doesn't get his Christmas tree up until Christmas Eve. As we look forward to Christmas we look forward to the day Jesus will bring us to a new home. Jesus is preparing the New Heaven and New Earth and the celebration is going to be bigger that Christmas. Today we hear God's plans for our new home. Recorded live at Word of Life Church in Le Sueur, Minnesota, on Sunday, December 14, 2025, Pastor Jason Lang preaching.Powered by Restream https://restream.io/

Christmas is supposed to be peaceful. So why does it feel like emotional dodgeball with people you love? Some things aren't funny when there's an empty chair. Some relationships didn't magically heal this year. And some of us are just trying not to take the bait at dinner. This message isn't about fixing your family. It's about the hope that God is fixing the world. "You may not be able to heal the fractures in your family, but you can refuse to make them deeper." Grace and peace.

Family at the holidays is a blessing, but let's be honest, it also comes with baggage. Broken relationships, unresolved hurt, empty chairs, and painful memories can make gathering together feel more fraught than joyful. But Isaiah 66 promises that Jesus will one day return and make all things right. He will bring justice for the wounds we've carried, reconciliation for the relationships that seem too far gone, and joyful unity that lasts forever. This Christmas, as you step into family gatherings that carry both blessing and burden, discover how to hold onto the promise that God is building a family that cannot fracture, a home untouched by sin or sorrow.

Sermon Text - Isaiah 66.18-23 - by Pastor Micah Plocher

In this inspiring episode of Warriors Unmasked, Chuck Thuss sits down with Adrienne Caldwell — a survivor, author, and advocate whose journey proves that even the darkest beginnings can lead to a life filled with purpose, peace, and hope. Adrienne opens up about a childhood marked by trauma and instability, but also the powerful turning point that set her on a path toward healing, rebuilding, and reclaiming her voice. Today, she uses her story to help others feel seen, supported, and empowered in their own healing. This conversation is emotional, courageous, and ultimately uplifting — a reminder that no matter what you've been through, it's never too late to rise, heal, and write a new chapter. Guest Bio Adrienne Caldwell is the author of the forthcoming memoir Unbroken: Life Outside the Lines — a raw and unflinching account of her journey through trauma, survival, and ultimately, healing.

More than a chronicle of pain, Unbroken is a story of identity, family, love, and finding your voice when the world refuses to listen. It's about reclaiming power and choosing purpose over despair.

Day 7 is the integration. The mind is no longer trained only on your meditation cushion, but anchored in a consciousness that flows into daily life. Today, you'll create a new narrative for your life as you put closure on what holds you back. This session establishes the final foundation, making your Unbroken Mind a permanent, ever-present reality. ALL ABOUT THIS WEEK'S SERIES Welcome to "The Unbroken Mind: A 7-Day Guide to Ancient Strategies for Modern Trauma" In the modern world, it's easy to feel overwhelmed, not by barbarian invasions, but by endless notifications, political noise, and the constant pressure to be "on." Resilience isn't a talent you're born with, or something you buy in a self-help book. What if the antidote to our modern anxiety was perfected two thousand years ago, written on wax tablets and sent across the Roman Empire? This series is your essential training manual for mental resilience, drawn from the deepest well of ancient wisdom: Stoicism. Over the next seven days, you're going to build a mental foundation that can withstand anything. This is your Unbroken Mind, and it's structured around one of the greatest resilience coaches in history: the Roman philosopher and statesman, Lucius Annaeus Seneca. Every single episode is a workshop to make this ancient philosophy immediately actionable today. This is day 7 of a 7-day meditation series, "The Unbroken Mind: A 7-Day Guide to Ancient Strategies for Modern Trauma," episodes 3423-3429. YOUR WEEKLY CHALLENGE: "The Acceptance Code" Your mission this week: practice Cognitive Separation, isolating facts from your emotional judgments about them. Whenever you feel stress, pause and list only the neutral facts of the situation (Katalepsis), then discard the "externals" you cannot change. This prepares your Inner Citadel to respond strategically, rather than reactively, to uncertainty and daily irritations. THIS WEEK'S MEDITATION JOURNEY  Day 1:  Inner Citadel Meditation Day 2:  Affirmation: "My peace is governed only by my internal response, not by external events."

The journey inward demands we address the internal resistance of the self-critic. This session is an exercise in non-identification, gently releasing the habit of self-judgment that perpetuates suffering. We practice generating metta (loving-kindness) toward the self, shifting the inner landscape from a state of conflict to one of unconditional support. Discover how self-kindness is not passive surrender, but the true root of mental stability and effortless resilience.

In this episode of the Braun Performance & Rehab Podcast, Dan is joined by Sharla Peterson to discuss her journey as a bodybuilder athlete. Sharla Peterson is an IFBB Pro wheelchair bodybuilder whose journey embodies resilience, reinvention, and elite performance. A lifelong athlete from Omaha, Nebraska, Sharla began in competitive aerobics before earning her degree in Occupational Therapy from USC, raising five children, and later entering the bodybuilding world in 2022. After an impressive rookie year—five shows and a 2nd-place finish at NPC Nationals—her momentum shifted when a Smith machine accident caused an L1 burst fracture, leaving her with an incomplete spinal cord injury. Instead of stepping away, she rebuilt her life and training from the ground up, adapting every aspect of her routine while refusing to let adversity define her.Sharla returned to the stage stronger than ever, ultimately earning her IFBB Pro Card and becoming one of the few women competing at the highest level of wheelchair bodybuilding. Whether she's preparing for guest posing at the Olympia, educating others on safe lifting mechanics, or inspiring the next generation—including her own children—Sharla continues to redefine what is possible through discipline, mindset, and unwavering drive.

¿Has notado que cuando tienes más tiempo… haces menos? Sí, no es tu culpa. Es ciencia. Hoy hablamos de por qué postergamos tanto y cómo volver a tomar el control de nuestro tiempo. Spoiler Alert: no es productividad, es propósito.

What if you discovered that your fears are unfounded? In today's episode, be guided with the wisdom of Seneca the Stoic on releasing fears that hold you back. Be guided with an empowering breathing technique to take your power back as you begin to release your fears. ALL ABOUT THIS WEEK'S SERIES Welcome to "The Unbroken Mind: A 7-Day Guide to Ancient Strategies for Modern Trauma" In the modern world, it's easy to feel overwhelmed, not by barbarian invasions, but by endless notifications, political noise, and the constant pressure to be "on." Resilience isn't a talent you're born with, or something you buy in a self-help book. What if the antidote to our modern anxiety was perfected two thousand years ago, written on wax tablets and sent across the Roman Empire? This series is your essential training manual for mental resilience, drawn from the deepest well of ancient wisdom: Stoicism. Over the next seven days, you're going to build a mental foundation that can withstand anything. This is your Unbroken Mind, and it's structured around one of the greatest resilience coaches in history: the Roman philosopher and statesman, Lucius Annaeus Seneca. Every single episode is a workshop to make this ancient philosophy immediately actionable today. This is day 3 of a 7-day meditation series, "The Unbroken Mind: A 7-Day Guide to Ancient Strategies for Modern Trauma," episodes 3423-3429. YOUR WEEKLY CHALLENGE: "The Acceptance Code" Your mission this week: practice Cognitive Separation, isolating facts from your emotional judgments about them. Whenever you feel stress, pause and list only the neutral facts of the situation (Katalepsis), then discard the "externals" you cannot change. This prepares your Inner Citadel to respond strategically, rather than reactively, to uncertainty and daily irritations. THIS WEEK'S MEDITATION JOURNEY  Day 1:  Inner Citadel Meditation Day 2:  Affirmation: "My peace is governed only by my internal response, not by external events." Day 3:  Kumbhaka (Retention Breath) Day 4:  Dhyana mudra for self-awareness Day 5:  Fifth chakra for inner truth Day 6:  Courage Flow meditation, combining the week's techniques Day 7:  Weekly review meditation and closure SHARE YOUR MEDITATION JOURNEY WITH YOUR FELLOW MEDITATORS Let's connect and inspire each other!

¿A quién le debes un “gracias” que te da más vergüenza que pedirle nota al grupo? En 50 minutos pasamos de la historia del pavo a la del profe que salvó tu semestre, al roomie que te regaló el último café y al SITP que frenó suave. Un episodio para mandar ese audio de voz que llevas 11 meses postergando y descubrir que agradecer no es moda de diciembre: es trampa secreta contra el estrés y el bloqueo mutuo.

We dive into Seneca's Epistle 107, where he promises that by forcing ourselves to "reflect upon all the possible evils," we can actually "shorten all its trouble by endurance." This isn't morbid dwelling; it's mental immunization. Learn from the ultimate practitioners of this method: the Roman Legionaries, who trained for catastrophic failure so they would never panic on the battlefield. Tune in to discover how paying the psychological price in advance frees you from fear and leaves you ready—and unbroken—for anything.

Day 6 is the synthesis of your entire training, moving your individual power cues into a single, automated reflex called Actio—the unified performance of command. We dive into the science of Myelination and State-Dependent Memory, explaining how layering your Posture, Breath, and Gaze physically hard-wires your brain for effortless calm and focus. Learn how to transition from chaotic input to an unshakeable state in mere seconds, becoming the veteran who maintains formation even when the enemy charges. ALL ABOUT THIS WEEK'S SERIES Welcome to The Roman Power Code: 7 Days to Inner Authority and Calm. If you've ever felt your energy drain away in a stressful situation, if your hands shake before a presentation, or if you struggle to maintain focus under pressure, this series is for you. We often try to solve problems of confidence and anxiety with our thoughts—we argue with our inner critic, we try to logically reason our way into feeling secure. But the ancient Romans understood a profound truth: Your body is the source of your authority. The Roman Empire was built on more than just discipline; it was built on an embodied presence that they called Gravitas—a personal weight, seriousness, and undeniable importance. This journey is a practical masterclass in self-command. By the end of this series, you won't just feel more confident—you will have a physical, repeatable, and accessible code to embody that confidence whenever you need it. This is day 6 of a 7-day meditation series, The Roman Power Code: 7 Days to Inner Authority and Calm," episodes 3416-3422. YOUR WEEKLY CHALLENGE: Intentional Micro-Posturing Quest: Check your posture, adjust your shoulders, back, relax your jaw, and hold the Gaze of Authority (steady, calm eye contact). This challenge forces you to consciously apply the Roman techniques in low-stakes situations, building the neural pathways for Embodied Power to become automatic. THIS WEEK'S MEDITATION JOURNEY  Day 1:  Dignity Visualization Day 2:  Affirmation: "I command my presence and own my peace." Day 3:  Praetor's Pause Day 4:  Ganesha mudra for overcoming obstacles Day 5:  Seventh Chakra for Interconnectedness Day 6:  Mental Focus Flow meditation, combining the week's techniques Day 7:  Weekly review meditation and closure SHARE YOUR MEDITATION JOURNEY WITH YOUR FELLOW MEDITATORS Let's connect and inspire each other!

Cuando Jeremy Irons compró un castillo en ruinas, todos pensaron que estaba loco; seis años después, había convertido el abandono en un hogar lleno de luz. Usando su historia como espejo, este episodio desafía la cultura del “si no sirve, tíralo” y pregunta: ¿y si en lugar de desechar personas, aplicáramos la mentalidad de restauración a nuestras relaciones rotas? Un viaje de 50 minutos para descubrir que lo que está quebrado puede volver a brillar… y quedar más fuerte que antes.

Send us a textA single question—what's your go-to condiment?—turns into a full-on catch-up that's equal parts cozy, chaotic, and weirdly revealing. We compare ranch loyalty with mustard purists, confess Miracle Whip-on-hot-dog crimes, and admit to breakfast choices that should probably be illegal. Food opens the door to everything else: newborn sleep shifts, basketball season chaos, and the small household rules that spark big laughs, like when Christmas movies are “allowed” to start.From there, we dig into the media that's shaping our season. We debate Hallmark predictability, share comfort rewatches, and talk about how streaming turned choosing into a marathon of scrolling. Nostalgia makes a comeback—VHS tapes, Redbox walls, judging movies and games by cover art—and we admit it still works more often than not. The audiobook tangent hits a nerve: AI narration might be efficient, but it can't replace a human performance that breathes life into the story.If you're hunting for watchlist ideas, we've got plenty. We shout out Game Night for sharp comedy, then pivot into war films that stick with you—Unbroken, 12 Strong, Land of Bad, and the moments in Saving Private Ryan you can't unsee. We admire practical filmmaking too: Top Gun: Maverick's real cockpit footage, Tom Cruise's stunt obsession, and the way authentic risk charges the screen. It's a tour through comfort food, comfort films, and the rituals that make busy seasons feel grounded.Hit play for laughs, confessions, and a stack of movie recs.

Adriene Caldwell has done more than survive—she has thrived. A former foster youth who beat the odds, Adriene is part of the less than 3% who go on to attend college, despite statistics showing that 20% of the U.S. prison population once passed through the foster care system. She doesn't sugarcoat life's harsh realities, but instead offers something far more powerful: hope. Hope that trauma will end, that the future can be different, and that life, even after the worst experiences, can improve.Adriene's story is not an easy one, best captured by the trigger warnings that accompany her book: emotional and physical abuse, sexual assault of a child, the drowning death of a child, extreme poverty, mental illness, homelessness, foster care, pedophilia, graphic sexual descriptions, violence, bulimia, incest, death, and suicide. It is a story of pain, resilience, and ultimately, the possibility of a better life. In This EpisodeAdriene's websiteAdriene's bookBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-trauma-therapist--5739761/support.You can learn more about what I do here:The Trauma Therapist Newsletter: celebrates the people and voices in the mental health profession.

Unbroken: Life Outside The Lines by Adriene Caldwell https://www.amazon.com/Unbroken-Outside-Lines-Adriene-Caldwell-ebook/dp/B0FL7SY9VT Unbrokencaldwell.com Unbroken: Life Outside the Lines is a raw, unflinching memoir that exposes the devastating impact of abuse, mental illness, and systemic failure, while illuminating the extraordinary resilience of the human spirit. Adriene Caldwell bares her soul, recounting her journey through a childhood marked by relentless trauma—emotional, physical, and sexual—yet also moments of tender connection and hard-won hope. This is not just a story of survival but of transformation, as Adriene confronts her past with courage and dares to envision a future beyond the chaos. Every page is infused with brutal honesty and an undercurrent of fierce determination, pulling readers into a world where despair and hope coexist. For anyone who has ever felt broken, this memoir is a reminder: we are not defined by our pain; we are shaped by our ability to rise, Unbroken.

Adriene joins us to chat about her early life experiences and her book about it - "Unbroken - Life Outside The Lines".   We talk about the long list of trigger warnings from the various abuses Adriene went through and how she is breaking the cycle of generational trauma. We chat about foster care, little known things like oversight, stats on college and jail, group homes, Canadian girls and reservations, forgiveness, therapeutic care, people as professional foster parents, and her divine moment of serenity and peace.   In the second half we get into her attempts at unaliving herself, meds for depression, the book being cathartic, her quick cocaine addiction, drinking and sobriety, blowback, human trafficking, not identifying as the victim, shelter life, and the 5 years of hell writing the book. She also has a message for survivors and has an amazing life.   https://www.unbrokencaldwell.com/the-book   To gain access to the second half of show and our Plus feed for audio and podcast please clink the link http://www.grimericaoutlawed.ca/support.   For second half of video (when applicable and audio) go to our Substack and Subscribe. https://grimericaoutlawed.substack.com/ or to our Locals  https://grimericaoutlawed.locals.com/ or Rokfin www.Rokfin.com/Grimerica Patreon https://www.patreon.com/grimericaoutlawed   Support the show directly: https://grimericacbd.com/ CBD / THC Tinctures and Gummies https://grimerica.ca/support-2/ Eh-List Podcast and site: https://eh-list.ca/ Eh-List YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheEh-List Our Adultbrain Audiobook Podcast and Website: www.adultbrain.ca Our Audiobook Youtube Channel:  https://www.youtube.com/@adultbrainaudiobookpublishing/videos Darren's book www.acanadianshame.ca Check out our next trip/conference/meetup - Contact at the Cabin www.contactatthecabin.com Other affiliated shows: www.grimerica.ca The OG Grimerica Show www.Rokfin.com/Grimerica Our channel on free speech Rokfin Join the chat / hangout with a bunch of fellow Grimericans  Https://t.me.grimerica grimerica.ca/chats   Discord     Leave a review on iTunes and/or Stitcher: https://itunes.apple.com/ca/podcast/grimerica-outlawed http://www.stitcher.com/podcast/grimerica-outlawed Sign up for our newsletter http://www.grimerica.ca/news SPAM Graham = and send him your synchronicities, feedback, strange experiences and psychedelic trip reports!! graham@grimerica.com InstaGRAM https://www.instagram.com/the_grimerica_show_podcast/  Purchase swag, with partial proceeds donated to the show www.grimerica.ca/swag Send us a postcard or letter http://www.grimerica.ca/contact/ ART - Napolean Duheme's site http://www.lostbreadcomic.com/  MUSIC Tru Northperception, Felix's Site sirfelix.bandcamp.com
