Podcasts about unkind

In this powerful and practical episode, Scott sits down with Kristy Mandour—nationally recognized communication coach, emotional intelligence expert, and host of the Sow to Speak podcast—to unpack the conversations that most leaders avoid… and why that's a problem. If you've ever hesitated to speak up, avoided holding someone accountable, or struggled to navigate tough conversations at work or at home, this one is for you.Kristy shares the science and strategy behind her “Lead Out Loud” method and “C.A.R.E.” framework, which empowers leaders to communicate with clarity, curiosity, and compassion—without burning out or bottling things up. This conversation will challenge how you think about accountability, reframe the stories you tell yourself, and help you lead with integrity, confidence, and connection.What you'll learn:• Why avoiding hard conversations is often a sign that you care—and why that's not enough• How to turn “accountability” into a form of support instead of punishment• The C.A.R.E. framework and how it helps you prep, regulate, and lead powerfully• Tips to shift from fear-based micromanaging to values-driven leadership• How these same communication tools apply to parenting, marriage, and life outside the office---Episode Markers:(0:00) - Meet Kristy Mandour(1:25) - The Origins of "Lead Out Loud"(3:35) - Having Meaningful Conversations with Your Team(6:05) - Micromanaging vs. Managing with Curiosity and Care(7:00) - Accountability & Difficult Conversations(11:30) - Being Curious(13:00) - To Be Unclear is Unkind(14:45) - Preparation as a Leader(17:45) - Significance of Setting & Intentions(23:20) - Communicating Positivity(24:50) - Regulating with Movement(26:35) - The Connection Between Leadership and Parenting(28:20) - Immediate Action Steps(30:00) - C.A.R.E.

I'm looking at a Proverb a day to show us the way, because the book of Proverbs is wonderfully applicable to the situations we face in our everyday lives. [If] you have been trapped by what you said, ensnared by the words of your mouth. So do this... Go and humble yourself... Allow no sleep to your eyes... Free yourself, like a gazelle from the hand of the hunter, like a bird from the snare of the fowler (Proverbs 6:2-5). How many times have you wanted to crawl under a table because you said something you wished you hadn't? Perhaps they were words spoken in anger or haste, or words of gossip, or judgmental words. Unkind, untruthful, harsh, unnecessary words that inflicted harm of some kind. What do you do? You can't unsay them; you can't delete them; you can't erase them. Those words hang there in your memory and the memory of others. What can you do? Solomon says to go and humble yourself to the person your words harmed; go, confess to them, and do it immediately. Apologize and do all you can to free yourself from the damage of those words. I know that's not easy to do, but it's a lot easier than not doing it! Once in a hotel on a business trip, I accused a hotel employee of neglecting to follow my instructions. I was certain I had given those instructions. Nicely, but directly, I said, "I'm sure it's your fault; please correct it.” A few minutes later I came to realize I was the one who was wrong, not him. It was embarrassing; I wanted to run away. But I forced myself to go to the phone, call the young man and apologize to him. Even a simple apology like that wasn't easy, but once I did it, I felt so free. And I could tell it made a big difference to him. He kept saying, "That's so nice of you to call. Thank you.” It wasn't nice of me; it was just the right thing to do. If you've offended someone with words, don't procrastinate. Go right now and apologize. That's good advice from Proverbs.

We'd love to hear from you! Send us a text!Elizabeth sits down with Organizational Psychologist, Hannah Chan, to dive into the concept that CLEAR is KIND and therefore being UNCLEAR is UNKIND. Hannah explains that the more honest and clear we are with those we love and invest in, the more WHOLE, joyful, free and content we are with ourselves. She unpacks the notion that we ultimately connect to those we love with greater levels of empathy and understanding as we step out in courage to be honest and clear. The depths of your relationship depend on how CLEAR you are with others. It's an episode you cannot afford to skip!Elizabeth Pehrson created The Exchange in 2015. The Exchange is a monthly event for ALL adult women. Women who work outside the home. And women who work in the home. Women who are single. And women who are married. Women who are moms.

A submissive wife should never ridicule or mock her husband, especially not in front of others. Unkind remarks dishonor him and damage trust even if it's meant as a joke.Your words should build him up, not tear him down. He deserves your admiration, not your sarcasm. Even in private, your tone matters. But in public, it matters even more.As his wife, you should be his biggest encourager and his number-one fan. Let your loyalty be loud, your respect constant, and your words reflect the honor he is due.If you wouldn't say it with him standing beside you, don't say it at all.

Are People Secretly More Hateful Lately? (KNOW propaganda online). They want us sick and stressed and filled with hatred. When was the last time lived hatred because of politics? (Unkind speech, gossip, anger and yelling and name calling towards others, spreading lies or white lies, sitting in judgement).

A pan-European consumer group is urging the EU to force airlines to allow passengers to bring a wheelie bag on board planes as well as a smaller item without paying extra. Frankly I think they are on a hiding to nothing – and talking of hiding, the accusation that these are "hidden charges" does not stand up. Airlines are extremely clear about their baggage limits, and the costs for taking more.This podcast is free, as is Independent Travel's weekly newsletter.

We explore friendship and emotional well-being through conversations with two sets of special guests who share powerful insights on maintaining happiness even when others aren't kind.• Emma and Ada demonstrate how friendship can thrive despite attending different schools by making intentional time for each other• Best friends don't need to be exclusive – having other friendships is healthy and necessary• The Fishmans share how their popular "Bucket Filler" books originated from Nechama's kindergarten bullying experience• Everyone has an invisible emotional bucket that fills with good feelings when full and empties when sad• When someone is mean, it's because their bucket is empty – understanding this helps you not take it personally• Filling others' buckets through kindness automatically fills your own bucket too• Being "bully-proof" means staying happy despite others' unkindness• Finding people who make you feel good is more important than forcing yourself into unfriendly groups• Simple acts like smiles and compliments can significantly impact someone's day• Parents should work through schools rather than directly contacting bullies' parents

In this eye-opening episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with Dr. Betsy Holmberg, Harvard-trained psychologist and author of the upcoming book Unkind Mind. Betsy shares her personal journey through heartbreak and depression, revealing a powerful discovery: the voice inside your head—the one constantly criticizing and doubting you—is not actually you. It's your brain's Default Mode Network (DMN), a survival mechanism rooted in ancient fears of rejection and failure. Together, they unpack how these negative thoughts form, how they impact identity, parenting, relationships, and careers, and—most importantly—how we can separate ourselves from them. Learn how understanding the brain's thought networks can unlock freedom from anxiety, overthinking, and imposter syndrome. About the GuestDr. Betsy Holmberg is a psychologist with a Ph.D. from Duke and clinical training from Harvard. She previously worked as a top-tier consultant with McKinsey & Company. Betsy now focuses on educating people about brain science and self-talk. Her upcoming book Unkind Mind (releasing June 1st) is a game-changer in mental health, blending neuroscience and personal insight. Key Takeaways Negative self-talk often stems from the DMN, an outdated neural network designed for survival, not truth. You are not your thoughts—the DMN is automatic and separate from your conscious self. Imposter syndrome, self-doubt, and anxiety can be reduced by strengthening the Central Executive Network (CEN) through mindfulness and intentional focus. Meditation helps shift brain activity from DMN to CEN, building emotional resilience. Self-compassion, awareness, and emotional honesty are powerful tools for breaking free from unkind mental patterns.

Send us a textMy guest Dr. Betsy Holmberg, is a joy to have had on my Podcast.  Author of Unkind Mind, and an award-winning psychologist and author specializing in overthinking and negative self-talk. She writes for Psychology Today and has been featured on radio, television, and podcasts. Her first book, Unkind Mind, comes out June 1 by New Harbinger Publications. Before settling into writing and therapy, Betsy ran the global behavioral health service line at McKinsey & Company, a premier consulting firm, where she ranked in the top 5% of all consultants. She also worked at Harvard and co-authored several peer-reviewed academic journal articles on non-suicidal self-injury and suicidal thoughts. She is trained in Cognitive-Behavioral and Dialectical Behavioral therapies, and has treated clients of various ages and presentations. Betsy received her doctorate, master's, and B.A. in Psychology from Duke University.It was a joy to have her on as a guest and learn about DMN and CEN.  CEN - Central Executive Network.  And the DMN is the Default Mode Network.  Are you intrigued?  I was.  In the days that followed this podcast, I was more aware of the DMN.  I am an overthinker.  She will reveal the difference in this Podcast.I love that Dr. Betsy brings up that an eating disorder, and so too alcoholism, or any addiction, is a "coping mechanism".  She didn't minimize this as just a problem. She clearly states that it is a "coping mechanism", without any judgment, yet with a solution.   I highly recommend you learn more about her and her book, which will be available starting June 1st, by visiting https://betsyholmberg.com/.  And you can pre-order!  I already did.  Available on Amazon and Barnes and Noble. The Unkind Mind.  What a great title.  Thank you, Dr. Betsy, for your time and for sharing your stories, your achievements, and your purpose from someone who overthinks even after recovering from bulimia.  This was truly insightful.Links:https://betsyholmberg.com/Unkind Mind Support the show

This week, we chat to Rosaria Girorgi, a mystery writer whose life has been as busy as one of her plots. Whilst studying in Denmark, she got a job working for who she thought was an antique dealer. He turned out to be 'The Umbrella Assassin', a cold war legend, who assassinated the Bulgarian dissident journalist Georgi Markov, with a poison pellet discharged from an umbrella.It's inspired her novel,'The Less Unkind', which tells the story of Pico, a young woman making her way in the world and forging new friendships, when she takes a job with a strange antique dealer... who turns out to be something different than he first seemed.Rosaria has lived all over, after being born in Tuscany, moving to Denmark, she founded a fashion start-up in Ireland, and is now living in Canada. We discuss how much where you live inspires what you write and how you write it. You can hear why she writes non-linearly and without a plot, which leads to a tricky edit smoothing the gaps of where chapters should join seemlessly.Also we chat about how to start your second novel when the first mines so much of your life, why a plot is like a flock of birds, and all about her day.Get a copy of the book at uk.bookshop.org/shop/writersroutineSupport the showpatreon.com/writersroutineko-fi.com/writersroutine@writerspodwritersroutine.com Hosted on Acast.

We review heralded new Netflix show Adolescence and give our criticisms about its depiction of the cause of male violence against women being, primarily, that boys aren't loved and supported enough by men. Referencing Victoria Smith's book ‘Unkind', we reflect on the myth that violent men are misunderstood men who have not received enough kindness. Why was it such a sympathetic portrayal of a murderous boy? And where are the equivalents for crimes committed overwhelmingly by women, such as Munchausen syndrome by proxy? Why promote the myth that violent men are under loved and under appreciated? Also, the idea male violence against women is a problem of a lack of bonding between men is an odd one, when male bonding and their fraternity is the very basis of patriarchal rule over women that produces MVAW in the first place. Plus, the internet as a ‘thief in the night', fathers general lack of involvement in child rearing, the role of families modelling behaviours to children that are carried on into romantic dynamics later on, the responsibility of mothers to discipline sons, the impact of porn consumption at a young age, our hyper-sexual culture brought about by liberals, and the obvious need to ban young children off social media platforms.

‘Seasoned feminist hag' Victoria Smith is sick to the back teeth of women being told to ‘just be kind'. This was catnip to our Mickey, who you'll already have heard wanging on about Victoria's 2023 book, Hags: The Demonisation of Middle-Aged Women, which asks why middle-aged women are treated with such active disdain and traces the hatred and fear of them back through history. To be clear, Victoria's latest book, Unkind: How ‘Be Kind' Entrenches Sexism, has no beef with actual kindness – in fact, she's a big fan – but instead looks at how three little words – “just be kind” – can cost women way too much. And how a baked potato brought perspective. Both of Victoria's books are available now, and you'll find her on X and Bluesky @glosswitch. Learn more about your ad choices.

With Sonnet 120 William Shakespeare draws a line under the explanations and excuses offered throughout the previous three sonnets for his own infidelities in relation to his young man, and simply reminds himself now of how awful he felt when his lover treated him in a similar way on those occasions when it was him who was sleeping around with other people. The conclusion Shakespeare comes to is that they both in turn have been through hell, and that their respective debt to each other for each other's transgressions now must surely cancel itself out. 

From the early 1970s feminist activists from across the globe campaigned under a single demand – Wages for Housework. The historian Emily Callaci traces the lives and ideas of its key creators in her new book, Wages for Housework: The Story of a Movement, an Idea, a Promise. The campaign highlighted the need to change the way work, and especially what has been traditionally deemed women's work, is valued. Although men are still paid more than women, and women still play a greater role in the home, recent polling reveals that nearly half of Britons say women's equality has gone far enough. And that figure has been rising significantly in the last decade. Rosie Campbell, Professor of Politics at King's College London also points out that a growing number of young men believe it will be harder to be a man than a woman in 20 years' time.So is it time for women to stop campaigning and #JustBeKind? Definitely not, according to the writer Victoria Smith. In her new book, UnKind, she unpicks the kindness trend that emerged in the 2020s, and argues that women and girls have again been coerced into a passive role.Producer: Katy Hickman

The morning after was not kind to Vice President Kamala Harris, at least not at the leading national betting books. Already the betting favorite Monday by 9.2%, Republican former President Donald Trump surged to 17.2% by midday Thursday – the biggest headlines from each happening on Wednesday in interviews rather than campaign rallies. And each happened on the home of Fox News, a network known for the conservative lean to the right. Trump, appearing with Harris Faulkner on “The Faulkner Focus,” said transgender athletes competing in women's sports would be banned if he's given a second administration. Transgender woman means a person assigned the male sex at birth who identifies and lives femininely.

Anxiety starts to spread, Worry takes over your head.  PAUSE Or maybe you feel some doubt, Questioning what life's about. Your sense of self feels weak, Can't find the peace you seek.  PAUSE Now pause, and breathe in, And be kind to your mind. Pause, and begin,  To let it all unwind.  LONG PAUSE Feel your arms embrace,  Your entire self with grace.

Every exhale calms, Surrender to loving arms.  PAUSE Be kind to your mind,  Let yourself unwind.  Feel the thoughts clear, Love surrounds you, my dear.  LONG PAUSE The judgements, the noise, Unkind thoughts that annoy, They don't have to stay, Let them all fade away. PAUSE Now feel the kindness spread, All throughout your head. You feel clear and light,  Grounded, calm and bright.  PAUSE The deeper your breath goes, More peace spreads and grows.  You are whole and aligned, ‘Cause are kind to your mind.  NAMASTE, BEAUTIFUL

I'm examining a Proverb a day to show us the way, because the book of Proverbs is wonderfully applicable to the situations we face in our everyday lives. Proverbs 6:2-5 gives us some very practical advice. You have been trapped by what you said, ensnared by the words of your mouth. So do this, my son, to free yourself, since you have fallen into your neighbor's hands: Go—to the point of exhaustion—and give your neighbor no rest! Allow no sleep to your eyes, no slumber to your eyelids. Free yourself, like a gazelle from the hand of the hunter, like a bird from the snare of the fowler (Proverbs 6:2-5). How many times have you wanted to crawl under a table because you said something you wished you hadn't? Perhaps they were words spoken in anger or haste, or words of gossip, or judgmental words. Unkind, untruthful, harsh, unnecessary words that inflicted harm of some kind. What do you do? You can't unsay them; you can't delete them; you can't erase them. Those words hang there in your memory and the memory of others. What can you do? Solomon says to go and humble yourself to the person your words harmed; go, confess to them, and do it immediately. Apologize and do all you can to free yourself from the damage of those words. Now, I know that's not easy to do. But it's a lot easier than not doing it! Once in a hotel on a business trip, I accused a hotel employee of neglecting to follow my instructions. I was certain I had given those instructions. So, nicely, but directly, I said, “I'm sure it's your fault; please correct it.” Well, a few minutes later I came to realize I was the one who was wrong, not him. It was embarrassing; I wanted to run away. But I forced myself to go to the phone, call the young man and apologize to him. Even a simple apology like that wasn't easy, but once I did it, I felt so free. And I could tell it made a big difference to him. He kept saying, "That's so nice of you to call. Thank you.” Well, it wasn't nice of me; it was the right thing to do. If you've offended someone with words, don't procrastinate. Go right now, today and apologize. That's good advice from Proverbs.

In this episode of the Matriarchy series, we explore how deeply ingrained patriarchal narratives can create a policing effect on the behavior of women.  Author, Elise Loehnen, discusses her book "On Our Best Behavior" which examines how concepts like the seven deadly sins have historically been used to restrict women's behavior and police their adherence to an idealized form of "goodness." Loehnen unpacks the insidious ways women are culturally conditioned from a young age to suppress normal human drives like anger, ambition, and sexuality. And how disrupting rigid gender stereotypes is important when raising the next generation in order to build a more compassionate world.  Jen and Elise discuss: How women are culturally conditioned and expected to embody "goodness" while men are oriented toward power  How concepts like the "seven deadly sins" have historically been used as a patriarchal "punch card" to police women's behavior Why raising boys to have an emotional inner life nurtures positive identity development The current era of politics that calls for women to challenge the patriarchal system while also having compassionate dialogue to build a new, care-centered world where everyone can flourish * * * Thought-Provoking Quotes: “Women are trained for goodness and men are trained for power.” - Elise Loehnen “The worst thing for a woman is reputational harm--just the assigning of her badness. Bad mother. Toxic coworker. Toxic boss. Unkind. She says the wrong thing. And it's sort of impossible to defend yourself against that. We have zero tolerance, and it's very scary.” - Elise Loehnen "We need a culture where the men are like, 'I would like to be more like women. I need to be caring. I want to be nurturing and creative. And yes, I can be strong and I can be masculine, but I also need this underdeveloped muscle.'" - Elise Loehnen Resources Mentioned in This Episode: On Our Best Behavior by Elise Loehnen - https://bit.ly/44tz41D Goop - https://goop.com For the Love of Being Seen and Heard ft.

In today's Cubs Talk podcast, James Neveau and Peter Marzano discuss Baseball Prospectus' PECOTA projections for the 2024 Cubs. Do they buy the Cubs as an 80-win team, and are they really second-best behind the Cardinals in the National League Central? Should Shota Imanaga and Hector Neris give them more of a boost? They discuss those questions, and also evaluate whether it's time to throw a bag of money at Cody Bellinger ahead of spring training, with the center fielder still on the market. Finally, the guys pick their favorite Cubs promo items of the year, as Pat Hughes and Christopher Morel both are immortalized in some unique ways.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
