This episode of 10 Minutes to Less Suffering explores how resisting what is happening in our lives intensifes stress, anxiety, fear, and emotional pain, and how acceptance can help quiet the mind and create space for what comes next. Through a deeply personal story of heartbreak, an unexpected injury, and receiving comfort at exactly the right moment, this episode reveals a powerful lesson: life may still be moving in our favor even when we cannot see it. Listeners will learn how to recognize when resistance is increasing their suffering, slow down during emotionally overwhelming moments, question fear-based thoughts, and use the practice of "Maybe" to become more open to uncertainty and possibility. Acceptance doesn't mean liking what happened or pretending something isn't painful. It means releasing the exhausting belief that life must be different before peace is possible. This episode is for anyone dealing with stress, anxiety, heartbreak, divorce, relationship changes, disappointment, uncertainty, parenting worries, career setbacks, or an unexpected change in life. It offers a gentle reminder that difficult circumstances are not necessarily the end of the story. Life is still moving, possibilities are still unfolding, and sometimes letting go of resistance allows us to see choices, support, and opportunities we could not see before. If life isn't going according to plan, this episode can help you find greater acceptance, emotional resilience, peace of mind, and hope in the unknown.

We'd love to hear from you. What are your thoughts and questions?Dr. Allen and guest Ben Reinberg discuss the importance of building a “hard-asset empire” to achieve generational wealth. They explore how tangible assets like commercial real estate, specifically medical office space, provide financial resilience and cash flow during uncertain economic cycles.Main Points:Adopt a long-term roadmap for wealth creation rather than reacting to public market volatility.Prioritize hard assets that provide consistent cash flow, tax advantages, and durability.Recognize that institutional investors and sovereign funds are increasing their allocation to tangible assets.Focus on sectors like medical office space that remain essential regardless of the economic climate.Build trust with investors through transparency, consistent communication, and a proven track record.Connect with Ben Reinberg:breinberg@alliancecgc.comhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/benreinberg/https://www.facebook.com/TheRealBenReinberg/https://www.instagram.com/therealbenreinberg/https://x.com/realbenreinberghttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCN-VuewtdVrFwlOrTsNbxGAhttps://www.tiktok.com/@therealbenreinberg?lang=en

Welcome to the What's Next! Podcast with Tiffani Bova. This week I'm joined by Karina Mangu-Ward, organizational design expert and author of Teams That Meet The Moment. Karina has worked with organizations ranging from PepsiCo and Chanel to Planned Parenthood and the Sundance Institute. Her work challenges a fundamental assumption about performance: that the individual is the unit we should be trying to optimize. I'm excited to share this conversation with her. THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR…entrepreneurs, founders, and business leaders looking to build stronger and more effective teams. TODAY'S MAIN MESSAGE…organizations often try to solve performance problems by focusing on individuals: hiring a superstar, coaching an underperformer, or replacing someone on the team. But Karina argues that the real issue is often the system surrounding those individuals. She explains why teams, rather than individuals, are the true unit of value creation and how shared language, clear decision rights, and better teaming practices can help organizations move faster and learn more effectively. In this conversation, we also explore what happens when AI agents become part of the team and why automating a broken process can simply make the problem bigger. KEY TAKEAWAYS: Teams, not individuals, are the true unit of performance. Consensus isn't always the goal; decisions need clarity and momentum. Clear decision rights can make teams faster and more effective. AI amplifies the need for strong processes, roles, and collaboration. WHAT I LOVE MOST…this conversation challenges the instinct to always look at the individual when something isn't working. Sometimes the most important thing to fix isn't the person, it's the way the team is designed to work together. And as AI changes how work gets done, that lesson is only becoming more important.

The Modern Therapist's Survival Guide with Curt Widhalm and Katie Vernoy
Suffering Is Collective, and So Is Healing: Belonging, Ritual, and Meaning in Uncertain Times - An Interview with Suzan Song, MD Suzan Song, MD, psychiatrist and medical anthropologist, on why suffering is collective and healing comes through belonging, ritual, and meaning. Curt and Katie talk with Suzan Song, MD about why the exhaustion so many therapists and clients are carrying right now is not only personal. Drawing on more than two decades of global mental health work with survivors of war, trafficking, and mass violence, Suzan makes the case that distress is often collective, shaped by culture and unstable systems, and that healing happens through belonging, narrative, ritual, meaning, and agency, not symptom elimination alone. She names what American mental health training often misses when it treats suffering as something bounded inside a single person, and offers concrete, low-cost rituals therapists can use to stay grounded. The conversation moves from collective grief and moral exhaustion to the difference between functioning and healing, and to grounding in relationship: who you matter to, and who matters to you. This is a grounding conversation for therapists feeling stretched by the current moment, and for anyone drawn to a global mental health lens on collective trauma, ritual, and sustainable healing. In this episode, we discuss: - Why the distress therapists and clients carry right now is collective, not only individual - What American mental health training misses when it locates suffering inside a bounded self - How belonging, narrative, ritual, and meaning function as healing - Why functioning is not the same as healing - Grounding in relationship as an alternative to purely individual nervous-system regulation - How small acts of agency protect against demoralization - Low-cost rituals therapists can use to keep moral exhaustion from following them home Timestamps: 01:44 - Who Suzan Song is and what she puts into the world 02:58 - How a medical anthropology lens changes clinical work 05:34 - When the self is collective, not bounded 09:18 - Collective suffering and the loss of agency 12:18 - Moral injury and disengagement in therapists 17:23 - Finding your own rituals as a therapist 24:07 - Grounding in relationship 28:13 - Why functioning is not healing Guest Bio: Suzan Song, MD, MPH, PhD is a child, adolescent, and adult psychiatrist and medical anthropologist, and a professor of psychiatry at George Washington University. She has spent more than two decades advising on mental health and psychosocial support (MHPSS) in humanitarian and conflict-affected settings, and is the author of Why We Suffer and How We Heal (Harmony / Penguin Random House, 2026).

How do you protect your business's value when costs keep rising and uncertainty shows no sign of easing – and why does psychological safety matter in your workplace? In this week's episode, business sales and acquisitions expert Simon Bedard explains how rising costs, inflation and economic uncertainty are reshaping business value. Simon – who is Managing Director of Exit Advisory Group, and author of new book Exit Like an Expert - also unpacks why many owners are absorbing costs instead of passing them on, and where to focus to build a stronger, more resilient business. Then senior psychologist and managing director at Barrington Centre, Rhonda Andrews, explores why psychological safety is far more than a compliance issue. She explains how creating a workplace where people feel safe to speak up can improve performance, innovation and retention – and why doing nothing is now the biggest risk of all.

Today's Bible Verse: "Hear this, you kings! Listen, you rulers! I, even I, will sing to the Lord; I will praise the Lord, the God of Israel, in song." — Judges 5:3 When you're facing uncertainty, anxiety, or fear about the future, how can you find peace and learn to trust God? Judges 5:3 reminds us that one of the most powerful ways to strengthen our faith is to remember God's faithfulness and praise Him for what He has already done. Remembering God's faithfulness changes our perspective. When we focus only on what we cannot control, uncertainty can quickly become overwhelming. But when we look back at God's provision, protection, guidance, and promises, we are reminded that the same God who has been faithful in the past is still with us today.

In today's uncertain environment, many clinics are reacting by cutting marketing, reducing spend, and slowing down growth. But the clinics that continue to grow are doing something very different. In this episode, we break down what's really happening in the market, why patients are hesitating, and how smart clinics are shifting their strategy to increase profits without relying on more traffic. Because the truth is: You don't have a traffic problem. You have a conversion and system problem. What You'll Learn Why patients are delaying decisions (even if they can afford treatment) The biggest mistake clinics make during uncertain times Why cutting marketing reduces future revenue The difference between defensive vs strategic decision-making How to increase revenue without increasing ad spend The “1 Case Rule” and how small improvements create massive impact Where clinics are losing bookings without realising it How to improve conversion across your entire patient journey Why follow-up, systems, and team confidence matter more than ever How authority positioning reduces hesitation and increases bookings Key Takeaways Patients are not disappearing — they are becoming more cautious Most clinics react by cutting, but high-performing clinics optimise Conversion matters more than volume in uncertain markets Small improvements in conversion can add significant revenue Existing patients are your most underutilised growth lever Systems, follow-up, and consistency drive predictable results Authority and positioning reduce patient hesitation Important Insight “Uncertainty doesn't remove opportunity — it reveals it.” Clinics that continue to grow are not lucky.

*This episode contains content that may be triggering for some listeners.* Today we’re joined by author and speaker Sarah Jakes Roberts, who invites us to rethink what true strength looks like—shifting from building a tolerance for the world’s noise to finding stillness in our calling. From stepping back from social media to anchoring identity in daily prayer, Sarah shares the liberating truth she discovered when she finally hit “mute” on the digital world. Next, we hear from human rights defender Timothy Cho, who recounts his harrowing escape from North Korea. He recounts the oppression and lies that were leveled at him from an early age and the moment he was labeled a traitor in his own country, driving his daring escape to experience the freedom truth brings, and how he now advocates for others to find their own freedom.

It is our ability to stay focused regardless of what comes our way.” - Sarah Jakes Roberts “Coming to a place where you can admit that I don’t have to be strong enough takes so much pressure off of yourself.” - Sarah Jakes Roberts “My gratitude becomes more magnified because I realized just how unworthy I am, and how good God has been in allowing me this space and opportunity.” - Sarah Jakes Roberts “When we talk about trying to figure out our identity in Christ in a world that is so noisy, we have to be the one to turn the volume down. You have to remember that you hold the remote control. At any given moment, you can hit mute. And in the process of hitting mute, you have to be willing to confront some of those voices that exist within our own head.” - Sarah Jakes Roberts “Our identity is constantly being developed, and we get to decide whether we allow it to be formed by digital algorithms or by words from God, affirmations that come from stillness and prayer.” - Sarah Jakes Roberts “Connecting with God daily allows us to be rooted and anchored in such a way that when we show up to the world, we’re not asking the world to tell us who we are.” - Sarah Jakes Roberts “I asked God, ‘If you are really there and you give me freedom, I will give my life to you.’” - Timothy Cho “Arriving in a democratic country, a free country, I thought it was the end. What I didn’t realize was that it was the beginning of another part of the journey.” - Timothy Cho “I was [able to] fight back against a wave of darkness and trauma. In my desperation and screaming out and tears, I would keep hearing, ‘Son, I love you, I love you, I love you.’” - Timothy Cho “We are facing a lot of hatred in this world at the moment. But hatred never [wins]; only love can overcome all of this hatred.” - Timothy Cho ________________________ Enjoy watching these additional videos from Jesus Calling YouTube channel!

What does it take for groups of people to come together to do extraordinary things? Kevin sits down with Karina Mangu-Ward to discuss the habits that help teams thrive in complex and uncertain environments. Karina explains why exceptional teamwork requires more than a strong strategy, talented individuals, or simply working harder, and introduces three essential areas of focus: organizing for impact, deciding in uncertainty, and designing for learning. They talk about how living team charters keep people aligned as conditions change, how "even overs" clarify difficult tradeoffs between two valuable priorities, and why working in public allows teams to collaborate earlier, learn faster, and avoid wasted effort. Karina also encourages leaders to replace perfectionism with experimentation, create shared language around decision-making, and begin where there is energy rather than waiting for a company-wide mandate. About Karina Karina Mangu-Ward is the author of the forthcoming book Teams Who Meet the Moment: 9 Practices for Unlocking Performance and Growth in Uncertain Times . She is an organizational expert who has worked with PepsiCo, Planned Parenthood, Chanel and more and is a Partner at August. At August, she's had the privilege of working with some of the largest, most complex organizations in the world to shift their everyday ways of working. Before August, her adventures included conducting research on implicit bias, helping arts organizations behave as creatively behind the scenes as they do on stage, and running social innovation labs. If you buy Karina a coffee, she'd love to tell you how all of these experiences led her to exactly where she is now. Her motto is "get caught trying," which means she'd rather try and screw it up than not try at all. She lives with her partner and kids in Brooklyn, NY.

Send us Fan MailChaos has a way of making smart people reach for old tools harder, even when those tools stop working. We sit down with Coach Carrie Sackett, author of “Saying Yes And To Chaos: Building Resilience with Our Clients in Uncertain Times,” to explore a surprisingly practical answer: improv. Not stage improv, but structured, embodied exercises that help coaches and clients get out of their mental loops and back into real-time presence, connection, and creativity.We dig into the heart of “yes, and” as a coaching method. Carrie explains how coaches can treat the client's words as an “offer,” accept what is true without negating it, and then add something that moves the work forward. You'll hear why she often uses improv games early, how experiential learning beats long explanations, and what shifts when “no, but” language turns into collaboration. The party planning game makes the contrast instantly felt, not just understood.From there, we zoom out to coaching in uncertainty and the feeling of living in a “poly” world where multiple, conflicting demands hit at once. Carrie shares a we lens grounded in social therapeutic coaching and both-and thinking, plus additional practices like mirroring, collective storytelling, and an emotions chorus that can transform group coaching, couples coaching, and family dynamics.If you want coaching tools for resilience that actually work in modern complexity, press play.

What if your 100 people could feel like 300? That's the bet Robin Daniels, Chief Business Officer at Zensai and author of The Human Success Playbook, is making - and it's working. His company doubled revenue over three years and has been named a great place to work three years running. He joins us to break down how to unlock the potential already sitting inside your organization, lead through genuine uncertainty, and build B2B content that people can actually put to work. About our guest, Robin Daniels Robin Daniels is Chief Business Officer at Zensai, a learning and performance platform competing in a market dominated by Oracle, SAP, and Workday. He previously served as CMO at Matterport and WeWork and held senior marketing roles at Salesforce, LinkedIn, and Box. He recently co-authored The Human Success Playbook - a narrative business book that follows a fictional CEO who refuses a board's demand to cut 40% of the company and sets out to prove there's a better way. The book comes with an AI-powered interface where readers can ask the authors questions and apply every framework directly to their own organization. What B2B Marketers Can Learn From The Human Success Playbook The biggest AI opportunity isn't efficiency - it's multiplication. Robin starts every conversation the same way: do you see AI as a way to cut costs and get more efficient, or do you see it as a way to unlock insane potential in the team you already have? He's made his choice - and built a company around it. Ian puts the math plainly: if you have 100 people, the far more exciting challenge is figuring out how to make them feel like 200 or 300 and generate the revenue to prove it. Robin connects it to something every leader already knows but rarely acts on: "I truly believe everyone has something they're really creatively good at. But if you can actually find time to focus on that, it can lead to new ways of growing your business that maybe you hadn't even thought of before." The companies that win the next five years won't be the ones who cut hardest. They'll be the ones who figured out how to multiply. You can't shrink your way to greatness. Robin credits Tom Peters for the line and means it completely. His argument isn't about shaming companies that make cuts - sometimes it's necessary to survive. The argument is about where the real upside lives: investing in people, giving them new tools and skills and goals, and then letting them find growth paths nobody had imagined yet. "I've never seen a company shrink their way to greatness," he says. "You have to grow." Ian adds the frame: the goal isn't to replace anything - it's to generate more revenue. "How are we going to 2X our revenue?" is a fundamentally more energizing question than "how do we get more efficient?" And it tends to produce more interesting answers. Lead with a vision even when you don't have all the answers. Robin is direct about what employees actually hate most: not bad news, not hard feedback, but uncertainty. "If you don't know what you're working towards, it's really hard to do great work." In The Human Success Playbook, the fictional CEO Evan has eight months to show a different path or get fired - and the whole tension of the story is whether he has the courage to set a direction without knowing exactly where it leads. Robin's advice for real leaders in that position: paint the vision, commit to it, and stay flexible enough to adjust as the world changes. And then, with characteristic directness: "Being a leader has always been tough. Suck it up, buttercup." The future of B2B content is a framework people can make their own. Robin didn't just write The Human Success Playbook - he and his co-authors built an AI-powered interface on top of it so readers can chat with the book and apply its frameworks to their specific company. A 500-person manufacturer in Germany gets different advice than a mid-size bank in the Midwest. Ian connects it to a bigger shift in how B2B content works: "You're building to say: here's the framework, your AI already knows where you want to go as a business, layer this on top and execute." The white paper people download and never read is being replaced by something that actually does the work. Robin is explicit about why: competing against Oracle, SAP, and Workday with a smaller budget means doing something genuinely different. The book is that thing.

ROMANS – Certain Truth for Uncertain TimesPaul was speaking at a very evil time in history. Tyrants ruled, and the immoral culture of the day seemed to be falling deeper into chaos. People were looking for meaning in life and freedom from the shame of their immorality. Paul knew that the only way a person or a society can be healed from the sickness of sin is through the blood of Jesus Christ.Lesson 4Romans 3:9-4:25. The way to God is not through being part of a particular nation, it is it is by faith – a faith that takes God at His Word and trusts in Him for salvation by grace alone!To learn more about Michele or to support this international ministry please visit https://intheword.com

Life often forces us to recalibrate our plans as we face unexpected changes, losses, fears, and unanswered questions. In Romans 15:13, Paul reminds us that Christian hope does not depend on perfect circumstances or on having every answer. It is rooted in the God of hope, who fills us with joy and peace as we trust in him. This message from Pastor Lonnie explores how hope grows when we honestly name our uncertainty, remember God's faithfulness, stay connected to the body of Christ, and take the next faithful step. We may not know what the future holds, but we are not alone in the storm. Through the power of the Holy Spirit, God can give us a hope that not only helps us endure but also overflows into our families, church, community, and world.
This week, we’ll hear from Butch Hartman, the animator and creator behind Nickelodeon’s biggest shows, including The Fairly OddParents and Danny Phantom. Butch grew up in a chaotic household in Michigan, where television and comic books served as his primary escape. This early passion eventually led him to California’s top animation school and then to a long career at Nickelodeon. Today, we’ll hear why he walked away after nearly twenty years at the network to start his own studio. Later in the episode, we’ll hear from Matt Cooper, a country artist from Jacksonville, Florida who turned the worst year of his life into a number one radio single. After losing his mother to cancer, Matt found himself white-knuckling his grief, until a late night group therapy session cracked something open and sent him home to write a song in a single hour that would change everything.

So it’s my job as a producer and a showrunner and a studio head to make sure that whatever goes on that screen is uplifting and is good for people’s souls and their spirit.” - Butch Hartman “There are kids out there I will never meet, but I know that the content I’m producing is going to somehow affect their life in a positive way for the Lord.” - Butch Hartman “We have to be very wise about the decisions we make, especially when it comes to entertainment, because it lives forever.” - Butch Hartman “I think it’s really hard, especially as a man, to deal with grief, because you try to white knuckle everything as a dude.” - Matt Cooper “I’m a big believer in therapy. It was really, really great for me. It was a way for me to talk through the emotions that I had just been hiding a lot.” - Matt Cooper “I wrote my song 'Highs and Lows' in one hour. It was the fastest song I ever wrote. And that was the first sense of like finding music as a way of dealing with my grief.” - Matt Cooper “I think the biggest thing that I’ve taken away from grief is that I understand more of the love of the Father than I ever had in my life.” - Matt Cooper ________________________ Enjoy watching these additional videos from Jesus Calling YouTube channel!

Dr. Jim Burns, founder of HomeWord, returns to the Jesus Calling Podcast to discuss how parents can navigate the heartbreak of estrangement with their adult children. He offers advice on avoiding self-blame, communicating without unsolicited criticism, and prioritizing healthy boundaries. Later, neuroscientist Dr. Joshua W. Brown shares how a terminal brain tumor diagnosis at age thirty sparked his interest in investigating how faith practices and prayer contribute to healing. Using his scientific training, he describes seeing cases that medical professionals cannot explain, exploring how healing may happen beyond the scope of traditional treatment.

Brown Interview Quotes: “I say to people whose kids are just moving into adulthood: ‘Number one, you’re fired as a day-to-day parent. You have to give the kid the passport to adulthood.’” - Dr. Jim Burns “Mentors don’t necessarily give advice, they give advice when they’re asked.” - Dr. Jim Burns “I say to parents all the time, take the lead, but take the lead with love. Take the lead with kindness.” - Dr. Jim Burns “There are very few estrangements where we don’t need the help of counsel. We need somebody coming alongside us to give us insight, especially with estrangement, because we don’t know what to do.” - Dr. Jim Burns “So the tightrope that you walk is you show love, you practice kindness, you expand the relationship to not just be a one-topic parent. And in doing that, you can embrace your child and love your child.” - Dr. Jim Burns “I think the bottom line with a lot of people, a lot of adult children, is they’re asking one question, ‘Do you still love me?’” - Dr. Jim Burns “If you hope for nothing, you are protected from being disappointed. And so hope has a cost to it. I was starting to see people, right in front of me, experience healing through this kind of prayer ministry. And so that gave me some degree of hope that there was at least something going on there that was worth pursuing.” - Dr. Joshua W. Brown “If you spend your time praying, thinking about God, thinking about His goodness, thinking about how He loves you and cares for you, your brain cells will become more responsive to those thoughts over time.” - Dr. Joshua W. Brown “Can what we believe, or our prayers for example, lead to mind-body effects that can have effects on actually reducing pain?” - Dr. Joshua W. Brown “As with food, you are what you eat. And I think the same principle applies spiritually and even psychologically [as to] the things that you spend time thinking about.” - Dr. Joshua W.

Is your practice set up to keep running smoothly during rough times? In this episode, AmSpa founder Alex Thiersch connects with Candace Noonan, Director of Education at Derma Concepts (the exclusive U.S. distributor of Environ Skin Care). Together, they dive into the economic realities currently impacting medical aesthetics—from rising global import costs and tariffs to shifting consumer spending habits. Candace explains why discounting product prices in a results-driven practice erodes perceived value and devalues clinical outcomes. Instead, she outlines how business owners can reframe retail around comprehensive, protocol-based treatment plans and strategic bundling. 02:17 Industry sentiment about economic shifts 05:30 The dangers of discounting products 08:00 A strategy for absorbing overhead 14:24 Maintaining operational discipline 18:00 Building on the legacy of Environ 23:40 Streamlining to build long-term systems

Pandemics. Shifting careers and shifting ground. Steve Wohlenhaus has watched these forces wear down people he once considered unshakable — and he's watched others use the same conditions as a launchpad for something new. The difference comes down to perspective. When we stumble over the bumps, we stop looking ahead. But a simple mind shift redirects our energy away from what we can't control and toward the solutions and long-term opportunities we can. In this episode, Steve shares the black dot parable — a story every leader should hear — and lays out three things leaders must do to stay strong when the path forward isn't clear.

Lesson 2 - Certain Truth for Uncertain TimesPaul was speaking at a very evil time in history. Tyrants ruled, and the immoral culture of the day seemed to be falling deeper into chaos. People were looking for meaning in life and freedom from the shame of their immorality. Paul knew that the only way a person or a society can be healed from the sickness of sin is through the blood of Jesus Christ.Romans 1:18-32. There is an order to the universe, a set of physical and moral “rules” by which things operate that we ignore at our own loss or peril.
Today, we’re joined by two people who found their way through the wreckage of their pasts to build something new. First, we hear from Tom Hardin. A former Wall Street insider trader, Tom saw his entire world unravel the morning the FBI knocked on his door. He joins us to share how he moved from a double life of secrets to finding a faith that finally holds up on Monday mornings. Then, we’re joined by Dawn Cazedessus [CAZZ de sue], author of Trailer Park CEO. Raised in an environment of generational poverty and abuse, Dawn navigated the difficult path from survival to becoming a regional leader for Keller Williams International. She’ll walk us through how she broke that cycle and why she’s learned to embrace failure as a way to fail forward.

I had all the drive in the world; I just hadn’t built the moral infrastructure to sustain it.” - Tom Hardin “The most dangerous lie isn’t the one you tell others; it’s absolutely the one you tell yourself so fluently you forget it’s a lie at all.” - Tom Hardin “God didn’t meet me at the top of my career; He met me at the bottom of my character.” - Tom Hardin “Guilt says, I did something bad, shame says, I am something terrible. Guilt can drive you towards repentance, but shame drives you into hiding—not only from yourself, but from others and from God.” - Tom Hardin “This idea of “Who am I hurting” is the most seductive question a person can ask because the answer is always larger than you’re willing to imagine while you’re asking it.” - Tom Hardin “Faithfulness isn’t a feeling. It’s a decision you make every morning before the feelings arrive.” - Tom Hardin “As I drove off [from the trailer park], in my mind, I was leaving that past behind and going into the future, but what I realized later on in my life is that I physically left that day, but it took years to mentally leave.” - Dawn Cazedessus “The people who have given me their time have been even more valuable because they took time to pour into me, to speak into me.” - Dawn Cazedessus “You’ve got to be able to approach life with a glass that is overflowing, so that you can navigate the difficulty of the things.” - Dawn Cazedessus ________________________ Enjoy watching these additional videos from Jesus Calling YouTube channel!

This week, we hear from Jameson and Mary Reeder, authors of Rescue at the Reef. They share the miraculous story of their ten-year-old son, Jameson Jr., who narrowly survived a devastating bull shark attack in the Florida Keys. Despite a life-altering injury, Jameson Jr.’s faith remained unshaken, and just four days later, he asked to return to the reef. Later in the episode, we hear from Greta Eskridge, author and homeschool mom of four, who shares her story of healing after her husband Aaron confessed to an affair and a years-long pornography addiction. While working to heal the damage to their marriage, Greta became convinced that parents must break the silence around this issue and initiate difficult conversations with their kids about pornography.

[My son] hears me scream, “No,” and the first words out of his mouth are, “Daddy, it’s okay. Jesus is going to save me.” - Jameson Reeder “When you face your fear, the fear doesn’t go away, but what you focus on is what rises. Do you focus on the fear or do you focus on your heavenly Father who’s with you in those fearful moments? He’s not abandoned you. He’s with you. And when you focus on your Father over the fear, then freedom rises.” - Jameson Reeder “Cultivating connection isn’t about these singular once-a-year, twice-a-year big moments. It’s everyday intentional time spent with one another.” - Greta Eskridge “We need to have conversations about pornography and the disconnection that it causes.” - Greta Eskridge “Out of that brokenness [of betrayal] has come a desire for both of us to not only cultivate meaningful, intentional, lasting connection as a couple, but also with our children, with friends, because not only have we experienced the disconnection ourselves, but we have recognized that our world is becoming increasingly more disconnected.” - Greta Eskridge “As much as [my husband] wanted to escape addiction, the nature of addiction is that it is very hard to do that on your own, and he needed support.” - Greta Eskridge “Beginning to understand what [my husband] was dealing with was impactful for me to have compassion and understanding for him..Being willing to do that and pursue my own healing as a betrayed spouse at the same time, those two things were transformative, and really, honestly, what changed everything for both of us.” - Greta Eskridge “When we allow ourselves to have that conversation [about pornography] with our kids or with one another, it takes away the power of the thing, and it reduces the shame. Shame tells us this is the end. But when we bring it into the light, it loses its power.” - Greta Eskridge “It’s incredible how much can change just by simply opening the door to honest, heartfelt conversation.” - Greta Eskridge ________________________ Enjoy watching these additional videos from Jesus Calling YouTube channel!

“I think one thing we mentioned just now, which is equanimity, that, of course, for them, they didn't realize the word. It was also something, the word that I've learned over the pandemic, so I think that's one thing where that equanimity, how you can stay grounded and centered, even if you are going through chaos, even if there is chaos in your head. So how you can stand grounded, and you can sound calm when you're talking to people, and even also in the pandemic, a lot of times the leaders don't know the answer either. So even if you don't know the answer, even if you feel the future is uncertain, you can still come across as calm and certain with the people you're leading.” – Cynthia ZhaiThis episode's guest is a voice coach, Professional Speaker, and best-selling author.

I think that's even more impressive.” We talk about how things have changed since her last appearance on the show and what inspired her second book. “The first book came out ten years ago, 2015,” she tells us, “so now, ten years later, some new ideas have come to me. I've got some new inspiration, plus all the different clients I work with, so there are even more case studies. And so that's what I did.”(12:28) – Equanimity in LeadershipCynthia tells us about equanimity and how it guides her philosophy as a voice coach and speaker. “Equanimity is a Buddhist term that means that you stay centered and grounded even in the midst of chaos around you,” she says. “Even if you feel that it's uncertain, you feel a little bit panicked, but as a leader that, when you lead, you have to still come across as calm, composed, and certain.” She tells us why having a soft voice is no obstacle to being a powerful speaker, and her approach to helping clients overcome the doubts that keep them from speaking with confidence. “It's because there's something that in their mind is holding them back,” she explains. “For example, they don't dare to take up space. They have grown up in an environment where it's not encouraged… Or there are clients who are fearful of visibility or even authority. Once they have all these, it will affect the way they speak.”(27:40) – Overcoming Stage FrightThe first half of our discussion comes to a close as Cynthia recalls how she ended up taking her own advice about journaling to get in touch with your inner self. “I'm going to do what I have told my clients to do,” she says. “So I wrote it down, and once I wrote down all the thoughts running through my head, I felt so relieved, I said, ‘Oh, okay.' Then I went back to sleep.” She offers her tips for overcoming stage fright and talks about the importance, particularly these days, of showing empathy and understanding in public speech. “Since the pandemic, a lot of researchers have shown, and also it's attested by many clients as well, that people are more and more towards leaders who show compassion,” she tells us. “That's why that compassion has become a very key element when they're speaking.”Episode SummaryCynthia explores how compassion shapes audience perception.Discussion on the meaning and value of equanimity for leaders.Strategies for managing anxiety before public speaking.Tune in for next week's episode as we discuss just what it means to have gravitas, Cynthia's techniques for building a stronger connection with your audience, and how her uncanny encounter with the voice clone of a favorite teacher showed her both the power and limitations of AI in sound.Connect with the Audio Branding Podcast:Book your project with Voice Overs and Vocals by visiting https://voiceoversandvocals.comConnect with me on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/jodikrangle/Watch the Audio Branding Podcast on YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/c/JodiKrangleVOConnect with me on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/jodikrangle/Leave the Audio Branding Podcast a review at https://lovethepodcast.com/audiobranding (Thank you!)Share your passion effectively with these Tips for Sounding Your Best as a Podcast Guest!https://voiceoversandvocals.com/tips-for-sounding-your-best-as-a-podcast-guest/Get my Top Five Tips for Implementing an Intentional Audio Strategyhttps://voiceoversandvocals.com/audio-branding-strategy/Editing/Production by Humberto Franco - https://humbertofranco.com/This podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: OP3 - https://op3.dev/privacy

Send us Fan MailIn this episode, I welcome my friend and returning guest Ivy Bromius of Circle Thrice back to the show. Ivy and I have known each other for a number of years, and her work brings together a wonderfully unusual - and extremely useful -combination of professional project management, practical enchantment, and magical timing through tarot and other divinatory arts.We begin with risk: how can divination help us look toward the future without becoming trapped by fear? Ivy explains why thoughtfully considering what could go wrong is not the same as magically causing it to happen—and why facing a possible risk can actually make us feel more empowered, and capable of changing our course.We discuss the emotional reality of fear, and explore courage and sovereignty: the ability to act according to our values, and work toward something better for ourselves, our families, and our communities.I hope you enjoy the conversation as much as I did!Find Ivy Bromius and Circle ThriceCircle Thrice:https://www.circlethrice.com/Risky Business course:https://www.circlethrice.com/project/risky-business-training-course/The Sovereignty Incubation Arc:https://www.circlethrice.com/project/the-sovereignty-incubation-arc/Ivy's Substack, Next Week in Magic:https://circlethrice.substack.com/Circle Thrice on Instagram:Instagram---Upcoming Events with JoAnna:July 28, 2026:Workshop at The Atlantis Bookshop in London[ PLEASE NOTE THE DATE - Ater posting this episode, I realized that I misspoke the date in my audio - I will be presenting the workshop on Tuesday, July 28th. ]Atlantis events and booking information:https://theatlantisbookshop.com/atlantis-events/Aug. 15, 2026: The Diviner's Path Book Event at The Serpent's Key in Hanover, PA - The Serpent's Key Shoppe and SanctuarySeptember 4–7, 2026:TempleFest at Prindle Pond Conference Center in Charlton, MassachusettsRegistration closes July 24:https://templefest.templeofwitchcraft.org/Support Coffee and DivinationMy new book, The Diviner's Path: A Nature-Led Approach to Divination with Tarot, Runes & Pendulums, is now available:https://amzn.to/4e6EXH9Thank you so much for the support the book has already received.

This week, we’ll hear from Victoria Arlen, a former Paralympic swimmer and ESPN personality, who shares her harrowing journey of surviving a rare autoimmune condition that left her in a “locked-in” vegetative state for four years beginning at age eleven. Beyond her physical recovery, she faced the intense emotional pressure of being labeled a “miracle,” while silently struggling with trauma and mental health. She eventually found peace by learning to embrace vulnerability, a transformation she details here. Later in the episode, we hear from author and actress Hillary Phillips as she bravely shares about transforming a broken view of God—seeing Him as angry and tallying mistakes—into an authentic relationship. After a complicated childhood turned into years of internalizing pain, Hillary recounts the raw moment she cried out to God in anger, only to be met with a supernatural love she never knew was possible.

Hillary Phillips Interview Quotes: “What the doctors failed to realize was I could hear everything that they were saying, and I could see, but nobody knew that I could. So I was literally locked inside my own body.” - Victoria Arlen “..You really have a choice—you fight or you give in. I saw how my family refused to give up on me.. They set up a hospital room in our living room and basically brought the world to me, because in their eyes, if they had a month with me, or a couple years, or the rest of my life, they wanted to take care of me.” - Victoria Arlen “I had this peace that surpassed understanding, and this journey as my mom calls it—our tragic, beautiful journey—is where we found God. It’s where we found our family, on a whole different level, and it really set my life in a whole different direction.” - Victoria Arlen “When I broke down, that was the beginning of that breakthrough in which God orchestrated so many things, to essentially help me get to that path where, Oh, I get that peace that surpasses understanding.” - Victoria Arlen “It was the first time the Gospel really sunk in for me—You don’t just love me because of how I perform or because of all these outward things, You love me [through] all of that stuff that I’m seeing.” - Hillary Phillips “Learning to be still with God and realize, Oh wait, you don’t actually expect me to be anything other than who I am. You don’t call me to wear a mask. You call me just to be. And learning how to do that is such a liberating thing, but also it’s just ongoing.” - Hillary Phillips “I was angry and felt wronged, and God really started to challenge me on how I was showing up in love. One of the things I realized was that I was not accepting my parents as they were [or] where they were. I was holding them to this idea of who they needed to be and who they weren’t.. God really helped me realize that’s not actually walking in love. I am rejecting who they are and only holding them to this idea or their past.” - Hillary Phillips “God didn’t promise us an easy life, He didn’t promise us a life free of suffering, but He did promise us hope and a future. He promised us that whenever we are struggling, He’ll be there with us through it. He’ll never leave us or forsake us.” - Hillary Phillips “I think that God used that experience to really show me His love is because I had to learn to sit and see trauma up close, but also recognize it’s not my job to fix.” - Hillary Phillips ________________________ Enjoy watching these additional videos from Jesus Calling YouTube channel!

This week, we hear from Dr. Michael Guillén, a physicist who grew up in East LA, earned his PhD from Cornell, taught at Harvard, and spent fourteen years as the science editor for ABC News—including a dive to the wreck of the Titanic that nearly killed him. Dr. Guillén shares how decades of studying invisible forces in the universe—dark matter, hidden dimensions, the limits of what science can actually see—ultimately led the self-described atheist to faith and why he believes science makes the case for God stronger, not weaker. Later in the episode, we hear from Chris Hodges, founding pastor of Church of the Highlands, who opens up about the grief, burnout, and panic attacks that brought him to a breaking point after a decade of leading one of the country’s fastest-growing churches—and the five-step process he found in scripture that pulled him out.

I don’t feel that lonely. I’m finding that more and more scientists are very receptive to the idea of God.” - Dr. Michael Guillén “Science has made it easier for me to believe in God, not harder. I’ve grown accustomed to dealing with invisible realities. It’s the bread and butter of modern science. The fact that God is invisible is no big deal for me, because I see His fingerprints everywhere.” - Dr. Michael Guillén “I liken the process or the feelings of depression and burnout as kind of being in the cave. Like, you know there’s a way out, but you don’t know where it is and it’s dark and it’s confusing.” - Chris Hodges “Many people only know God in the dynamic; they don’t know Him in the intimate.” - Chris Hodges “When I had a new assignment, and a fresh purpose for life.. Joy flooded my heart the moment I knew God had something He wanted me to do.” - Chris Hodges “I call it the bucket list principle—if you want to start living, start dreaming.” - Chris Hodges “I think people can come out of their burnout conditions by their closeness with the Lord, by renewing their sense of purpose and hope.” - Chris Hodges ________________________ Enjoy watching these additional videos from Jesus Calling YouTube channel!

This Father’s Day week, we hear from two men whose completely different experiences of childhood and fatherhood led them to the same mission: helping dads show up with intention. Jeff Hamilton, pastor and author of Dad Academy, grew up with the rare gift of an engaged, present father. Today, he’s helping dads build stronger relationships with their children through intentional parenting. Later in the episode, we hear from Glen Henry, known online as Beleaf in Fatherhood, whose story couldn’t be more different—a childhood marked by feeling unwanted and unloved, and a young adulthood spent shifting his identity just to feel accepted. It was becoming a father himself that finally forced the inner work he’d avoided and how he learned the importance of fathering yourself first.

We find a sense of significance by the value and benefit that we bring to others.” - Jeff Hamilton “A dad’s mission is to prepare their kids for life by passing on their values and their skills to their children.” - Jeff Hamilton “The rituals and traditions of your family are the things that give your children a sense of identity and understanding of who they are and the priorities that they need to establish in the course of their lives.” - Jeff Hamilton “[Traditions and rituals] create memorable moments that help our kids understand when they move from one stage to another, and it affirms who they are becoming and the future and the destiny that’s ahead for them.” - Jeff Hamilton “Once I started to grow as a man by having to apply the things that people were trying to teach me my whole life, I recognized the true gift that fatherhood was.” - Glen Henry “My thought is that you would father yourself out of that and start to change your inner voice so that you always speak to yourself as a father that loves you, just like you love your children.” - Glen Henry “The way I have been held as a father, I’ve never felt closer to God than I have being a part of a family. You’re collaborating with God on a masterpiece.” - Glen Henry “There are things hidden in the relationship [with your family] that if you allow it to teach you, you will grow closer to God.” - Glen Henry ________________________ Enjoy watching these additional videos from Jesus Calling YouTube channel!
