Podcasts about Uplift

Sheriff Chris Swanson strives to live in the moment: On May 30th 2020, when he found himself in the center of a volatile situation, he chose to listen to the people he has sworn to protect, put down his baton, and walk with them by their side. And in doing so, more than a billion people across the world tuned in to see one everyday person change the tide from negative to positive, from what could have been bad to something good. While the world around us seems to be on a constant, unstoppable path of division, Sheriff Chris continues to embrace unity, through his community in Flint, Michigan and beyond. We talk a lot on this show about shining the light into - and finding the light in - the darkness. Sheriff Chris is doing that on the daily. This episode is one of the most profoundly inspiring and uplifting ones we've ever offered and serves as the perfect way to close out the year with you, our good listeners, reminding you that there IS still good out there, lots of it, and you - YES YOU - can find and be that good yourself. _________________________________ GOOD HOLIDAY GIFT ALERT: Steve's third book in his cozy mystery series, THE DOG WALKING DETECTIVES is finally here: SEASON'S SLAYINGS lights up the holidays!

Well, let me tell you—I don't. Today I'm getting real about what happened when I, someone who literally teaches strategy and balance, hit the wall. I found myself burned out, empty, and crying out to God for help.   Here's the truth: even the strongest women hit a wall. And when I did, I realized that ‘getting my life together' didn't mean working harder or pretending I was fine. It started with one small, holy whisper: Get help. That whisper changed everything—my business, my faith, and my family.   In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on the exact steps I took to rebuild from burnout. We're talking therapy, coaching, household help, and why waiting for the ‘perfect time' keeps so many women stuck. If you've ever felt exhausted, overextended, or guilty for needing help, this one is for you. Asking for help isn't weakness—it's wisdom. And it's the first step toward freedom.

Get 40% off at Little Things Studio - SHOP NOW    I'm about to say something that might make you want to tune out: you don't need balance. You don't. What you need is clarity and courage. You need to stop measuring your life against some invisible checklist that was never yours to begin with. Balance is a myth, and it's keeping too many of us stuck, exhausted, and chasing something that doesn't exist. I know the dream of balance sounds good, but here's the truth: you don't have a balance problem—you have an expectation problem. Today, we're going to break that myth wide open and build something better. Something that actually leads to peace, purpose, and sanity. Here's what nobody tells you about balance: it's often a trauma response disguised as productivity. It's our attempt to control everything so we don't feel like we're failing at anything. But friend, you weren't created to juggle it all. You were designed to live with intention. To honor the seasons. To walk in the beautiful rhythm of a life led by purpose, not pressure.   Timestamps: (00:29) - Balance Is a Myth: The Lie That's Keeping Women Stuck and Exhausted (03:29) - Why “Balance” Is Broken (and What It's Really Costing You) (06:39) - God Calls You To Be Faithfully Aligned with His Purposes (06:55) - How Life-Giving Rhythms Bring More Peace Than Balance Ever Could (08:32) - Practical Steps to Build Rhythms That Restore Your Sanity and Strengthen Your Faith   WATCH ALLI  ON YOUTUBE   Links to great things we discussed:    Catalyst Mastermind Alli's Product Recommendation - Acid League Toasted Thai Coconut Living Vinaigrette Start your Free 30-day trial of Uplift!

We just checked out the Warhammer TV app and, honestly, it's got potential but falls short in key areas. The app offers exclusive Warhammer animations, hobby guides, and battle reports, but after browsing the available content, there's just not enough to keep you coming back. Most series are short, updates are slow, and it feels dated next to modern streaming platforms. UI/UX is a struggle: navigation is clunky, compatibility is inconsistent across devices, and basic features like sorting, favoriting, and easy downloads are missing or awkward. It's tough to find what you want, and it lacks the polish you'd expect from such a prominent brand.If Games Workshop wants Warhammer TV to thrive, they'll need far more content and a major app overhaul. Are you using the app, or still holding out for something better? Drop your wishlist and feedback below, and subscribe for more honest reviews on hobby tech!

Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Marsha Evans. Purpose of the Interview To highlight Marsha Evans’ work as a licensed professional counselor and founder of Willow Tree Counseling and Educational Center. To explore strategies for navigating life’s complex stages, breaking generational patterns, and building authentic relationships. To provide actionable insights for entrepreneurs and individuals on self-awareness, fear management, and relationship dynamics. Key Takeaways Understanding Complexity Life stages vary in complexity for each person—middle school for some, adulthood for others. Evans emphasizes listening and identifying what balance, peace, or contentment means for each individual. Early Awareness and Discipline At age 12, Evans set a goal to earn a scholarship, showing intentionality and discipline. Athletics taught her teamwork, problem-solving, and resilience, shaping her leadership style. Reading the Room Start by reading yourself—know your energy and intentions. Authenticity and confidence are key to building relationships and leveraging opportunities. Fear and Family Systems Fear often originates from family systems and generational patterns, not just personal experiences. Example: Parents’ limited worldview can project fear of the unknown onto children. Recognizing these patterns helps individuals break cycles and pursue their own paths. Generational Patterns & Healing Evans uses Genograms (visual family trees) to identify psychological and behavioral patterns across three generations. Acceptance of parents and family history is crucial for personal and professional growth. Rejecting parents = rejecting life and success; honor them while creating new narratives. Practical Steps for Change Build a relationship with yourself through solitude, meditation, yoga, and movement. Reduce stress (cortisol levels) to improve clarity and decision-making. Examine your money story—how family attitudes toward money shape your financial behavior. Relationships Romantic: Partners often mirror unresolved childhood issues; do inner work to avoid projecting. Professional: Maintain boundaries; emotional needs should not be placed on workplace relationships. Personal: Define roles clearly; avoid expecting friends to fill parental gaps. Consistency and Authenticity Success requires consistency with yourself before expecting it from others. Ask: Are your goals truly yours or influenced by societal expectations? Notable Quotes “I become a visitor in your world and start listening to your story.” “Reading the room starts with reading yourself.” “Fear is often not yours—it comes from your family system.” “You can’t reject your parents; when you reject your mother, you reject life.” “Consistency with yourself is key to achieving the results you desire.” “Your partner cannot carry the burden of your parents.” “People are divorced from themselves—I teach them how to get married to themselves.” #SHMS #STRAW #BESTSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Get 40% off at Little Things Studio - SHOP NOW  What if I told you burnout isn't about your calendar? It's not. That bone-deep weariness—the kind that sleep doesn't touch—doesn't come from doing too much. It comes from doing too little of what actually matters. The problem isn't your schedule; it's your soul running on fumes. We've been told the story that burnout is all about overcommitting, overachieving, and overdoing. And sure, sometimes that's part of it. But for most of us—the givers, the helpers, the women holding everything together—burnout isn't about piling on more. It's about what we've cut out. We've quietly deleted the very things that restore us. You can perfect your morning routine, turn off every notification, and still feel empty. Because burnout isn't about how busy your days are—it's about how fulfilled your heart is. And here's the good news: you don't have to stay stuck in depletion. Today, we're going to talk about how to reclaim what fuels you, reset your rhythm, and start living from a place of fullness instead of running on empty.   Timestamps: (00:39) - The Surprising Truth: Your Burnout Has Nothing to Do with Your Calendar (03:27) - Why Doing Less of What You Love Might Be Draining You (05:13) - The 3 Hidden Sources of Burnout You Don't See Coming (07:58) - Soul Neglect & Overcarrying Leads to Emotional Exhaustion (12:06) - 3 Practical Steps to Move from Burnout to Real Alignment   WATCH ALLI  ON YOUTUBE   Links to great things we discussed:    Catalyst Mastermind Alli's Product Recommendation - Apple AirTags Start your Free 30-day trial of Uplift!

Warning: this episode contains strong language and a term of racist abuse.  Just when we thought the disasters of the government couldn't get any worse… New Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood has made it her “moral mission” to raise Nish and Coco's blood pressure. Cruel new plans to end the permanent status of refugees and curb housing and support for asylum seekers do perhaps justify the government's slogan of the biggest overhaul of the system “in modern history” - but at what cost? But - not to be outdone in terms of parties completely out of touch with reality - Your Party's latest act of in-fighting leaves Nish and Coco with palms glued to their faces. Let's face it - things have never been anything but fractious within the upstart political movement, but as their conference approaches the wind has never seemed further from their sails.  And ahead of the budget next week Chancellor Rachel Reeves is entertaining big cuts to the Warm Homes Plan in efforts to bring down energy bills. Nish and Coco chat to Robert Palmer, Deputy Director of environmental organisation Uplift, about why this quick fix is wrong-headed and short sighted.  CHECK OUT THESE DEALS FROM OUR SPONSORS  AURA FRAMES https://www.auraframes.com Code: PSUK CALM https://www.calm.com/PSTUK  GUESTS  Robert Palmer, Deputy Director of Uplift USEFUL LINKS  Claims of racism and antisemitism in Nigel Farage's adolescence  https://www.theguardian.com/politics/ng-interactive/2025/nov/18/deeply-shocking-nigel-farage-faces-fresh-claims-of-racism-and-antisemitism-at-school CREDITS Shabana Mahmood / X Reform UK Parliament TV  Ed Miliband / IG Pod Save the UK is a Reduced Listening production for Crooked Media.

Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Dr. Stephanie Wall. Purpose of the Interview To share Dr. Wall’s expertise as a neuroscience coach, criminal justice professor, author, and mentor. To discuss her mission through 1 Million Lives Transform, a global movement helping women unmute their voices and lead with authenticity and confidence. To provide actionable strategies for overcoming self-doubt, fear, and imposter syndrome in professional and personal settings. Key Takeaways Background and Roles Served 20 years in law enforcement and continues teaching criminal justice and ethical leadership. Founder of 1 Million Lives Transform, focused on empowering women to reclaim their voices. Unmuting Your Voice Many professionals mute themselves due to fear, lack of confidence, or imposter syndrome. Techniques: Awareness: Recognize when you’re silencing yourself. Pause and breathe before responding. Stand up when speaking in meetings to command attention and project confidence. Use phrases like “I’d like to build on that point” to engage respectfully. Mindset and Fear What you tell yourself matters more than external criticism. Replace negative self-talk with affirmations and surround yourself with positive influences. Neuroscience supports that repeated positive input rewires thought patterns. Boundaries and Time Management Learn to say “No” as a complete sentence. Set boundaries for phone calls and social interactions to protect productivity. Busy professionals should establish communication rules (e.g., “Do you have a minute?”). Authenticity and Leadership Authenticity is key—embrace your natural gifts and use them to transform spaces. Leadership requires mindset shifts when moving from peer to manager roles. Mentorship should be intentional and specific, not generic (“pick your brain” requests need structure). 1 Million Lives Transform A movement to help women rewrite their narratives, reclaim confidence, and lead boldly.

This is an oh-so-good double house call. _________________________ Steve's third book in his cozy mystery series, THE DOG WALKING DETECTIVES is finally here: SEASON'S SLAYINGS lights up the holidays!

Join the Catalyst Mastermind !    You know what to do, so why aren't you doing it? You've got the plan, the Pinterest board, and the color-coded calendar to prove it. Maybe it's the business idea that's been “almost ready” for six months, the book still inside you, the course you'll launch someday, or the hard conversation you keep postponing.   I'm not judging. You're in good company. Every ambitious woman I know has had that 2 a.m. moment of frustration: I know exactly what to do, so why can't I make myself do it? We tell ourselves it's a motivation problem, but what if it's actually something deeper?   Here's the truth: it's not about willpower, laziness, or even time. It's about identity. The gap between who you believe you are and who you're becoming is where resistance lives. That's why it feels so hard—you're stepping into a new version of yourself, and your old identity is fighting to stay in charge.   But here's the good news: you don't have to stay stuck. You can close that gap. You can start showing up as the woman who already does the thing, even before it feels natural. That's how transformation works—it's not about waiting until you feel ready, it's about acting like the future you right now.   So today, let's stop rehearsing the plan and start living it. Let's stop waiting for perfect timing and start trusting that God has already equipped you for this moment. You don't need more motivation—you need to believe you are the kind of woman who follows through. And once you believe it, you'll finally do the thing you were made to do.   Timestamps: (00:47) - The Real Reason You're Not Doing What You Already Know to Do (03:46) - What the “Identity Gap” Really Is (and Why It Changes Everything) (05:16) - The Most Common Identity Gaps Keeping Ambitious Women Stuck (07:43) - Three Powerful Identity Shifts That Can Change Everything (09:56) - Three Simple Actions to Close the Gap and Move Forward This Week WATCH ALLI  ON YOUTUBE     Links to great things we discussed:  Alli's Product Recommendation - These Are the Good Old Days Banner Start your Free 30-day trial of Uplift!

Abi Murray invites us to a cup of coffee and a nice conversation care of the Chatty Cafe Scheme. This all began on a typical wet and windy UK day when Abi's sister Alex Hoskyn was in a supermarket café with her four month old son, who wasn't great company, and she herself was feeling a bit tired and a bit fed up. Alex looked around the cafe and saw others who looked just as down as she felt herself and she started to think about the positive impact we can have on one other simply by sitting together and communicating. She knew from her own experience that when you are feeling lonely, a short conversation with another human can really brighten your day. It was in that very moment her ‘Chatter & Natter' table idea began (in her head where all dreams do) and it soon became reality. Now in 900 cafes throughout the UK and an additional 200 in Australia, the Chatty Cafe Scheme allows anyone feeling lonely to take a seat and connect. Abi shares the journey she and Alex have been on and the importance of creating community. We also speak with volunteer John Ford about his experience with this organization and what it's meant to him to connect with others as someone who moved to the UK from another country himself. Grab a cup of coffee and join us, won't you? _________________________ Steve is busy at work on the third book in his cozy mystery series, THE DOG WALKING DETECTIVES.
