Art and Hanna Bankier explore the complex terrain of life transitions, particularly the shift from hands-on parenting to becoming a "Mama Mentor" as children leave home. Hanna shares her journey from Swedish immigrant to transition coach, revealing how every identity shift creates opportunities for authentic reinvention. "We have this idea that the time we have left is unknown, combined with life is fragile, equals do it now," she reflects, challenging listeners to embrace change rather than resist it.Through personal stories and practical exercises, Hanna offers listeners a roadmap for navigating transitions with intention. "Are you performing, producing, or providing?" she asks, confronting our culture's obsession with productivity as the measure of worth. The conversation weaves between vulnerability and practical advice, including a powerful identity-mapping exercise with colored markers that reveals where your energy flows. Can we slow down enough to recognize our inherent value beyond what we do?Hanna Bankier is the founder of Birdie Launcher, where she helps moms spread their wings as their little ones leave the nest. A sought-after coach, change catalyst, and speaker, Hanna left her 20+ year television career as a VP of Production to follow her passion: connecting people to possibilities. Drawing from her own experience launching her oldest child (now a college junior) while preparing for her high school senior's departure, Hanna became the "go-to Birdie Launcher friend" among her peers. With advanced degrees in Electronic Communication Arts and Industrial Organizational Psychology, plus certifications in Mediation, Conflict Resolution, and coaching (ACC from ICF), she brings professional expertise to personal transitions. Her provocative question to mothers—"What if the best years of your life are yet to come?"—guides her work helping women rediscover themselves beyond active parenting. When not coaching, Hanna serves on the board of BAYCAT.org, hikes, dances, travels, and hosts gatherings for her intentionally-created community.About The Show: The Life in Transition, hosted by Art Blanchford focuses on making the most of the changes we're given every week. Art has been through hundreds of transitions in his life. Many have been difficult, but all have led to a depth and richness he could never have imagined. On the podcast Art explores how to create more love and joy in life, no matter what transitions we go through. Art is married to his lifelong partner, a proud father of three and a long-time adventurer and global business executive. He is the founder and leader of the Midlife Transition Mastery Community.

It was in someone else's hands and they could bestow it upon me, or, they could take it away from me…when I think of it as an ability, it's a capacity within me that other people might awaken or inspire or threaten, but ultimately it's mine. It's mine to tender, it's my responsibility.”– Sharon SalzbergSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

And to me, that's a much more powerful love - a love that's rooted in absolute vulnerability and honesty." - Kerry WashingtonGrowing up in a family culture where "hide the truth to look good" was the unspoken rule, Kerry Washington always sensed something was missing despite having loving, supportive parents. For decades, she pursued various healing practices—therapy, yoga, introspection—trying desperately to feel "enough." Then came the life-altering revelation: after forty years, her parents finally shared a profound family truth they'd been concealing her entire life. Rather than shattering their relationship, this moment of raw vulnerability transformed it, allowing Kerry to offer something extraordinary in return: unconditional love without pretense or filters.The award-winning actress candidly shares how this family revelation became an unexpected gift, providing her permission to finally "relax into who I am." Through her powerful journey of self-acceptance, Kerry reveals the emotional rollercoaster of processing such life-changing information—from gratitude and bliss to anger and fear. Her story powerfully illustrates how authentic connection can only truly exist when we embrace vulnerability, demonstrating that real healing begins when we stop hiding behind comfortable lies and start embracing uncomfortable truths.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter

John 10:22-30At that time, the festival of the Dedication took place in Jerusalem. It was winter, and Jesus was walking in the temple, in the portico of Solomon. So the Jews gathered around him and asked him, “How long will you keep us in the suspense? If you are the Messiah, tell us, plainly.”Jesus answered them, “I have told you and you do not believe. The works that I do in my Father's name testify to me, but you do not believe, because you do not belong to my sheep. My sheep hear my voice. I know them and they follow me. I give them eternal life and they will never perish. No one will snatch them from my hand. What the Father has given me is greater than all else and no one can snatch it from the Father's hand. The Father and I are one.” “You do not believe because you do not belong to my sheep.”“You do not believe because you do not belong.” What if that's the whole tweet, as they say? What if that's all we need to hear this morning? And what if you and I are supposed to be convicted by that – as followers of Jesus – rather than use it as some kind of judgement against those who consider themselves not to be followers of the Jesus we claim?“You do not believe because you do not belong.”Jesus is talking to the Jews who weren't on board yet with what he was up to. And, with a little pastoral imagination, I like to think his disciples were within earshot of this conversation; that they were following him around, as usual, and that Jesus knew he was being heard by both at the same time; that he was speaking to both crowds at once – those who belonged and those who didn't believe.There are plenty of people in the world who don't believe in Jesus – or God – or have a Christian faith for all sorts of rational, considered, thoughtful, theological reasons. Maybe they're deliberately, purposefully atheists. Maybe they're people of another faith – Jews, Muslims, Sikhs, Hindus, pagans. I'm not talking about them, necessarily.Instead, I found myself wondering this week about those who don't believe, but who would, could, might believe, if only we – as followers of Jesus – would do better at finding ways for them to BELONG, first. (“You don't believe because you don't belong…”)I heard two stories just this week, in two very different, settings, from two very different sources, about two sets of parents who were struggling with the fact that their gay or lesbian children weren't people of faith; didn't go to church; didn't believe or worship or practice a faith that their parents wished that they would. In one case, the child had been raised in the Church, but had fallen away from an active, practicing life of faith. In the other case, the family wasn't one who had ever practiced a faith, but the father came to believe in mid-life, and wanted to bring his wife and grown children along with him for the journey. (For what it's worth, one of these stories came by way of a colleague, here in Indianapolis. The other was from a completely unrelated story I heard on “This American Life.”)Anyway, what these two sets of parents have in common, is their outspoken disapproval of their children's sexuality, which is evident to the adult children they want to love, by either the theology they adhere to (“Love the sinner. Hate the Sin.” sort of stuff.), their political persuasion (the politicians and policies they support that do harm to their gay children), or both.In other words, the children of these parents know that they don't – and will never – BELONG to their parents' faith communities or fit into their misguided view of the world, so how could they and why would they ever want to believe in the things their parents professed about a loving, gracious, merciful God?“…you don't believe because you don't belong.”In my opinion, so many people in so many walks of life are falling away from the faith or throwing it all out with the bath water, because they see Christianity connected with exclusion, judgment, hypocrisy, greed, violence, and more. People don't believe because they don't belong – or because they don't want to belong – to a body that embodies any of those things. And, as hard and as sad and as frustrating as that is, it makes perfect sense to me. And it's why we have so much work to do.And I think that work starts with belonging. They don't believe because they don't belong.People long to feel and to experience welcome, love, and affirmation. And when they do, they might begin to wonder about believing and embracing the God who promises it.If we want people to feel like part of God's family… If we want people to learn about the grace we proclaim… If we want people to believe in the wideness of God's mercy, in the amazing love of our creator, in the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and in life everlasting…I'm convinced that they need to know, trust, and feel like they BELONG, first. And I think our call is to show and to shout and to share the good news of that belonging as loudly and as clearly, as often and in as many ways as we can manage.I heard another, beautiful story this week – perfect for Mother's Day – about a different family altogether who proved what belonging can do. Many years ago, this set of American parents adopted a 7 year-old boy from Romania, who had lived the first 7-and-a-half years of his life in an orphanage where he shared a crib with another boy his age that entire time. As they grew, they stayed in that crib, to the point that they had to sleep sitting up. They didn't go to school. They didn't go outside. They only left their crib to eat and to use the bathroom. Daniel, the boy who was adopted by the Americans in South Euclid, Ohio, never even knew the names of the adults who took care of him in that orphanage.The short of the long is that Daniel came to the states utterly unprepared for the life with which his adoptive parents hoped to give him – he simply wasn't ready socially, emotionally, or intellectually for a life with people who loved him. After 7 years in a crib, how could he be? And after a six-month honeymoon period with his new family in the states, things went downhill fast and furiously.Daniel developed an anger and rage over all that he couldn't process or understand about his experience in the orphanage, his having been put there in the first place by his birth parents, and his place in the world and with his new mom and dad. He threw tantrums they described as “tornadoes of rage … eight hour marathons where he would throw anything he could get his hands on.” There were thousands of holes in his bedroom walls from his violent outbursts.He abused social workers and specialists. He choked a puppy. He gave his mom, Heidi, a black eye, once. He held a knife to her neck, another time. It got so bad they hired the equivalent of a bodyguard to be in the house, so that Heidi was never alone with her new son.Finally – and I'm leaving out a lot of the story, mind you – they embarked on a fascinating, controversial treatment for Daniel's diagnosed Attachment Disorder where they pulled him out of school, Heidi quit her job, and they spent several months side-by-side, literally no farther than three feet apart. If one of them went to the bathroom, the other waited outside the door. They only time they were not next to each other, was when they were sleeping.They worked to establish the bond that's supposed to be created between mothers and infants, under normal circumstances, by being very deliberate about eye-contact, for instance, and proximity. Daniel wasn't allowed to ask for anything – he had to learn, from experience, that Heidi would provide basic needs for him, like food and drink. Daniel's punishment for not playing along, or for doing something wrong, was called a “Time In,” where he would be subjected to time on the couch, being hugged by his mother.Ultimately, it worked. After eight weeks of this and a year of “holding therapy” where the family of three cradled each other – holding 13 year-old Daniel like a newborn – for 20 minutes, every night for a year, Daniel began to transform, slowly, but surely, almost imperceptibly, into a boy who believed that he would be and could be and was LOVED by his parents. Another way to say this, if you ask me, is that Daniel came to believe in that love, because he was finally convinced that he belonged to his new family. He believed because he belonged.And I think this is our call as people of God in the world. People need to see and to know that they already belong to the good news and grace and eternal life we claim. And I think it's our job and it should be our joy – even when it's hard – to show that kind of love and belonging to them.I think they need to see us marching at PRIDE parades.I think they need to see us teaching about and practicing anti-racism.I think they need to see our kids walking against homelessness and they need to see us giving money to their cause.I think politicians need to receive our letters, our phone calls, and our votes – in the name of Jesus – that speak out on behalf of people who are hungry and homeless and criminalized for that. (Join us for that next Sunday, between services.)I think the women who are served by our Agape ministry to sex workers need to experience the proximity and generosity of that ministry.And the list goes on. But I've said enough. And, just because it couldn't be more timely, I'll close with something from the new Pope Leo that makes me think he'd agree with me. Apparently, he said this once:“We are often worried about teaching doctrine, but we risk forgetting that our first duty is to communicate the beauty and joy of knowing Jesus.”They don't believe, because they don't belong.I think those who don't believe what we claim to know about the grace of God need to experience it, first; they need to see us making room for them, for their doubts, and for their unbelief – whoever “they” may be. And that needs to happen, not because it's our job to convince them of God's love, but because we – and the world – will be blessed and better for having shared this love humbly, hopefully, and with a warm welcome of belonging, in Jesus' name.Amen[To hear the full story of Daniel and his family, listen to Episode 317 of This American Life, “Unconditional Love.”]

It is a place where there is a great degree of tolerance for ambiguity—that the masculine paradigm conditions us to believe is a problem to be solved. The feminine heart space sees ambiguity as a higher truth, paradox as a vast space of truth. This heart has the capacity, because it is so vast, to hold seemingly contradictory propositions." – Mirabai StarrSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
*This episode mentions suicide and may be triggering for some listeners. This week, we’re diving into something truly transformative—the power of love to change everything. First, we hear from Father Richard Rohr, who shares his lifetime of wisdom about how experiencing deep, unconditional love—not rules or fear—is what really brings about meaningful change. Then, Pastor Zach Meerkreebs takes us to Asbury University, where a truly extraordinary event happened in that faith community. He reminds us that following Jesus’ example of humility can open our lives up to amazing possibilities.

That comes from an excess of anger and a deficiency of sadness.” - Fr. Richard Rohr “An experience of infinite, unconditional love—that’s the only thing that changes us.” - Fr. Richard Rohr “We can’t authentically love one another without experiencing the authentic love of Jesus first.” - Zach Meerkreebs “Within a couple of days, it had been spread around the world that God was moving on the campus [of Asbury University], and we started having guests from South America and the Middle East and Asia to come and encounter God at our chapel service.” - Zach Meerkreebs “Humility really is a foundation in what’s countercultural, captivating, convicting and compelling of the Christian walk.” - Zach Meerkreebs “If you read Scripture and you study the person of Jesus, humility is the most captivating thing about Him.” - Zach Meerkreebs “Because I understand who I am and I understand who God is, that drives me to pray.

The 5D Academy with Zarathustra explores universal wisdom to foster total freedom from suffering in all areas of your life; health, wealth, love, and self.Each Academy podcast contains valuable insights and takeaways to become the best version of yourself and create an authentic, fulfilling life. Zarathustra transmits 5th Dimensional Quantum frequencies in each episode with transformational tools while discussing different topics to help you maintain this new frequency in your daily life.Zarathustra has created a practical system of transmitting the truth to his audience allowing transformation and freedom from suffering. Spiritual development requires an open heart. It is virtually impossible for a seeker to advance to higher consciousness if they don't love themselves. The belief system which has been ingrained in our cellular memory from childhood that we are not good enough results in a conditioned mind. The conditioned mind holds the false belief that there is something missing in our lives, that we are incomplete, that we need to gain something in order to become happy and whole, which is not true. After a life time of searching, Zarathustra has blended a practical system of Eastern and Western methods and techniques to help the Academy members to free themselves from anxiety, negative thoughts, lack of self-love and self-acceptance and destructive emotional patterns through a systematic way to raise your vibration to 5D Vibrational Frequency, which enables you to live a vibrant life of freedom and happiness.The Key Elements To Freedom:Zarathustra recognizes continuity and consistency are the key elements to freedom. In order to help you achieve your spiritual goals, it's best to have a highly effective spiritual practice, free of dogmas, false beliefs and superstition that helps you raise your vibration to 5D Vibrational Frequency as well as the ability to maintain this newly found higher level of consciousness. This translates to a life filled with inner peace, self-love and happiness which is the goal of every spiritual seeker.New knowledge and benefits are gained with each replay.

Loving the people the mind deems "loveable" is an easy task. Loving those who rub the mind the wrong way is difficult. And yet doing so is the truest testament to the meaning of love. To love someone who isn't easily “lovable” by the mind's standards is to access the depths of love from the space of the heart. In this episode, we'll explore the differences between these two types of love and examine the power of heart-based love and its potential to heal the planet.SourcesChildre, D.

In this deep conversation, two “happy" masters of meditation, Loch Kelly and author of Original Love, Henry Shukman, explore their similar and unique approaches to awakening. With delight and curiosity, they share some of their own initial awakening experience. They also discuss their process of discovering and unfolding and how they share it with students. To this end, they unpack and illuminate the contemplative art and science of Inquiry and Koans as ways to shift out of the chattering mind and into our already awake heart mind. Henry talks about his experience with Zen Koans and Loch shares his Mahamudra approach to inquiry. Loch calls this Glimpsing, and it emphasizes immediate experiential pointers which help practitioners directly realize their already awake nature. Henry and Loch also lean into questions around the importance of integrating ancient wisdom approaches with contemporary models of psychology and human development. Other key areas of their trans-traditional dialogue include recognizing ordinary experiences and pain as opportunities for awakening. They also talk about the role of personal loss in awakening and the role of personal storytelling in teaching. They both agree that awakening is the discovery of what Henry calls Original Love (instead of Original Sin) and what Loch calls Unconditional Love, which allows us to live from Awake Loving Flow.Mindful Glimpse The episode features Loch offering a guided practice called “Compassion Is Already Here.” These mindful glimpses serve as invaluable tools for experiencing ways to access the awake consciousness that is already here within all of us.You can now explore all of Loch Kelly's practices and teachings on the new Mindful Glimpses app, found at https://lochkelly.org/mindful-glimpses. This innovative meditation and wellness app offers daily micro-meditations, step-by-step programs, and simple-yet-advanced tools for awakening.Loch Kelly Bio Loch is the creator of the Mindful Glimpses app, and an award-winning author, psychotherapist, and non-dual meditation teacher. He is also known for his unique practical methods that support awakening as the next natural stage of human development. Backed by modern neuroscience and psychology, Loch introduces Effortless Mindfulness, which combines an ancient form of nondual meditation and IFS psychology that allows immediate access to our embodied awake nature which arises as our calm, clear, and compassionate healing capacity.

In this episode of the Holy Smokes podcast, host Steve Reiter sits down with Uli Reyes, who shares his life story of faith and transformation.

Easter Mosaic of Redemption Essential Church April 20, 2025 SUMMARY The message explores themes of love, sacrifice, rebellion, and redemption, drawing parallels between popular cultural narratives and biblical stories. It begins by highlighting the appeal of stories where characters demonstrate unconditional love and sacrifice, such as in movies and music. These narratives resonate deeply because they reflect a yearning for love that transcends self-interest. The pastor discusses the inherent conflict between humanity's desire for unconditional love and its rebellious nature. This tension is illustrated through biblical stories, where God's unwavering love contrasts with humanity's continuous rebellion. The message emphasizes that despite humanity's flaws and failures, God's love remains constant and redemptive. The narrative transitions to the Easter story, portraying it as the ultimate expression of God's unconditional love through Jesus Christ's sacrifice. The pastor underscores that this love is not earned but freely given, even amidst human rebellion. The message concludes with a call to embrace this love and grace, encouraging individuals to stop running from God and to accept the redemption offered through Jesus. It emphasizes the transformative power of worship as an expression of acknowledging one's rebellion and receiving God's grace. The closing prayer seeks to inspire a renewed or new relationship with God, healed through the Easter story. DISCUSSION QUESTIONS 1. **Unconditional Love vs. Rebellion:** - How do you perceive the tension between humanity's desire for unconditional love and its tendency towards rebellion? - Can you think of examples in your own life where you've experienced this conflict? 2. **Cultural Narratives:** - Why do you think stories of sacrifice and unconditional love are so compelling in movies and music? - How do these narratives influence our understanding of love and relationships? 3. **Biblical Parallels:** - What are some biblical stories that resonate with you in terms of illustrating God's unconditional love? - How do these stories compare to modern narratives of love and sacrifice? 4. **Personal Reflection:** - Have you ever experienced a moment where you felt unworthy of love yet received it anyway? How did that impact you? - In what ways can acknowledging our own rebellion lead to a deeper understanding of grace? 5. **Easter Story:** - How does the Easter story of Jesus' sacrifice influence your perspective on love and redemption? - What does the concept of being "relentlessly pursued by God" mean to you personally? 6. **Worship and Expression:** - How can worship music serve as a bridge between acknowledging rebellion and celebrating grace? - What role does music play in your spiritual or personal journey? 7. **Application:** - How can you apply the lessons of unconditional love and grace in your daily interactions with others? - What steps can you take to stop "running from God" and embrace the love and redemption offered?
Dr. Vitz talks about the difference between unconditional love and unconditional attention, and how it could be what sits in wide unspoken boundaries. (Originally aired 09-17-2021)
So Much More: Creating Space for God (Lectio Divina and Scripture Meditation)
Today is Maundy Thursday—the night before Jesus went to the cross. This Lent Meditation will guide you to reflect on Jesus’s unconditional love. On this night, Jesus knelt to wash His disciples’ feet, shared the Passover meal, and redefined the meaning of the bread and cup. Then, He walked with His disciples to the Mount of Olives, where He spoke words they didn’t fully understand—words about their coming failure and His unwavering love. In today’s meditation, we’ll step into this moment through Peter’s eyes, listening as Jesus tells him that he will deny Him. But even in this painful prediction, there is hope—because Jesus’s love was never dependent on Peter’s strength. And His love for us is the same—unconditional, unwavering, and faithful. As you slow down and enter this sacred moment, may you remember: Everything Jesus does is because of His extravagant love for you. Listen now to enter into the story of Maundy Thursday.

The Entire meditation text is: Matthew 26:30-35, NIV 30 When they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives. 31 Then Jesus told them, “This very night you will all fall away on account of me, for it is written: “ ‘I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will be scattered.’ 32 But after I have risen, I will go ahead of you into Galilee.” 33 Peter replied, “Even if all fall away on account of you, I never will.” 34 “Truly I tell you,” Jesus answered, “this very night, before the rooster crows, you will disown me three times.” 35 But Peter declared, “Even if I have to die with you, I will never disown you.” And all the other disciples said the same.

Want to be a guest or know someone would be a great fit? I am looking for military vets, active duty, military brats, veteran service orgs or anyone in the fitness industryGrief arrives without warning and stays without permission. After saying goodbye to Brady, my 16-year-old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and faithful "workout warrior," I'm sharing this deeply personal episode from a raw, tender place of loss.The bond between humans and their pets creates a unique kind of love—uncomplicated, steady, and honest. Brady wasn't just my dog; he was woven into the fabric of my daily existence. He was the first face greeting me when I opened the door, the loyal companion who looked directly into my eyes as if understanding every word, and the constant presence beside me during workouts. When such a powerful connection is severed, the silence becomes deafening.Through tears and vulnerability, I offer gentle guidance for anyone navigating the grief of losing a beloved pet: Allow yourself to feel everything without judgment. Create small rituals to honor their memory. Lean on friends who understand. Most importantly, reject the arbitrary timelines society tries to impose on your healing journey. Those first days after losing Brady, my wellness routines faltered—I skipped workouts, chose comfort foods over nutrition, and that was perfectly okay. Sometimes self-compassion means giving yourself permission to simply survive rather than thrive.Let this episode be a reminder that grieving a pet is valid, significant, and worthy of your patience. Our furry companions teach us about unconditional love in life, and in their absence, they teach us about grace. If you're walking this difficult path, I see you, I honor your loss, and I hope you'll join me in choosing wellness even in grief—not by forcing yourself back to "normal," but by carrying their love forward in everything you do.Support the show

Happy to have Ali Acampora back to complete her Talking About Kite trilogy! Welcome to Media Club Plus: a podcast about diving into the media that interests us and the stories that excite us. Well it wouldn't be an episode of the Chimera Ant arc if it wasn't full of the weirdest, wildest shit yet. And that's certainly true for this one. The quick rundown: The king is alive, Pouf and Youpi become mothers by feeding the king their own flesh to revive him (deeply sexual), everyone resolves to back Gon up against Pitou (potentially to their own death), Gon decides he's going to leave with Piout alone and that his buddies should take Komugi as a hostage, Pouf is making power plays to take advantage of the King's amnesia which is difficult because the three of them can kind of all read each other's minds now, Gon leads Pitou to Kite where they reveal that Kite cannot be helped, Gon doesn't like this. Corrections: In this episode there's disagreement on how Komugi gets knocked out. Upon review, it's clear that Killua (intentionally?) knocker her out during Pouf attack This week we cover episodes 127-130, titled Hostility x And x Determination, Unparalleled joy x And x Unconditional Love, Formidable Enemy x And x Clear Objective, and Magic x To x Destroy. Next episode we'll be covering episodes 131~133, titled Anger x and x Light, FLash x and x Start, and Deadline x to x Live.
