Together, we look back at what this year demanded of us, what surprised us, what stretched us, and how we've changed because of it.From navigating a whirlwind year of content, community, and massive milestones, to personal transformation, bold decisions, and moments that tested us, this conversation is an open-hearted look at what it really means to evolve… especially in midlife.In this episode, we cover:The big moments and milestones that defined our yearThe personal growth we didn't expect and how it shaped usThe behind-the-scenes realities of building a life, a business & a communityWhat surprised us most, and what challenged us the mostThe boundaries, balance, and boldness we practiced (or struggled with)The beauty of connection, servitude, and purpose in the work we doThe messages from YOU that moved us deeplyWhat we're letting go of (and what we're stepping into) in the New YearHave a question for Dominique?

In this Winter conversation, I'm joined by Christian Rasmussen, founder of Amentara (formerly MN Nice Botanicals), whose work with Amanita muscaria has impacted thousands of people around the world. If you've followed my podcast for a while, you know I rarely bring guests on—even though I receive constant pitches. I said an instant yes to this interview because I already knew Christian's work, and I've actually been purchasing Amanita from his website for the last few years. His company was recommended to me originally by Amanita Dreamer, whose research guided my earliest explorations with this mushroom.Amanita muscaria—also known as fly-agaric—is the “other” psychedelic mushroom. It is legal, ancient, and culturally famous (yes, the Mario mushroom emoji
Welcome to Wellspring Church!In this message, Pastor Billy Waters invites us into the tension and beauty of the Fourth Sunday of Advent by turning to the surprising ending of the book of Jonah. Rather than a neat resolution, Jonah 4 leaves us with a question—one that exposes our hearts and God's expansive mercy.Jonah is angry that God shows compassion to Nineveh, and God gently confronts him: Is it right for you to be angry?Through this exchange, we see how easy it is to celebrate God's grace for ourselves while resisting it for others. Advent, Pastor Billy reminds us, prepares us not just to receive Jesus, but to be transformed by the wideness of His mercy.
"Overwhelm often leads to inaction, as we freeze in the face of too many tasks and not enough time."In this episode of Business is Human, Rebecca Fleetwood Hession explores the pressure that many feel as the end of the year approaches. With deadlines looming and responsibilities piling up, it's easy to spiral into a state of stress and uncertainty. Instead of powering through, Rebecca reveals how our nervous systems react to overwhelm and why taking a step back is crucial for both our productivity and well-being.Through a blend of neuroscience, practical tips, and a compassionate approach to leadership, Rebecca shows how we can transform our approach to the end-of-year chaos. She dives into the power of intentional scheduling, explains how naming our stress can help us regain control, and emphasizes the importance of creating peace in our calendars. This episode is a call to reset, to find clarity in the clutter, and to lead with calm instead of chaos during the holiday season.In this episode, you'll learn:How overwhelm triggers our nervous system and what it's really trying to tell usThe power of intentional scheduling to calm your mind and regain controlPractical steps to create peace in your calendar and lead with clarity during stressful timesThings to listen for:(00:00) Introduction(02:01) Understanding the nervous system(02:49) The power of time blocking(05:55) Writing it down: he first step(07:41) Allocating time realistically(09:14) Creating a productive environment(12:23) Honoring your time blocks(12:49) Spiritual aspect of orderConnect with Rebecca:https://www.rebeccafleetwoodhession.com/
When was the last time you did something just for fun?If you had to pause and think… you're not alone.In Part 1 of my conversation with Treena Innes, Your Life Fun Expert, we unpack why fun feels so hard in midlife and how we slowly lost our connection to joy. This episode will help you feel seen, understood, and a little more hopeful—especially if life has felt heavy or too serious lately.Next week, we'll get practical. Today, we're setting the foundation with the mindset shifts that make space for fun again.What we cover:Why so many women lose their “fun habit”How guilt, comparison, and generational messages shape usThe impact of technology on how we view joyWhat happens when we never make time for playHow fun strengthens resilience, clarity, and emotional well-beingWhat “Fun Health” is—and why it's just as important as physical healthKey Takeaways:You weren't taught to prioritize fun—and that's not a personal failure.Fun isn't frivolous. It's fuel.Joy actually supports your mental, emotional, and physical health.You can't wait for life to calm down to feel joy—you create it now.Connect with Treenaminddoodles.caFinding Fun Experiment Podcast@treena_minddoodles Resources:Instagram- https://www.instagram.com/shellyniehaus/Simple Shifts Newsletter: https://midlifemadesimplepodcast.com/tipsWomen Entrepreneurs In Prayer Call - https://midlifemadesimplepodcast.com/prayer

Carter's mama, Amy and I, first recorded 3.5 years ago, not long after we both lost our sons. At the time, we were still deep in survival mode—learning how to breathe, how to exist, how to live in a world that had permanently changed.In this episode, we come back together to talk about life now.We talk honestly about:Parenting after lossWhat grief looks like years later (spoiler: it doesn't disappear)Expanding our families while still carrying our first babies with usThe tension of joy and sorrow coexistingHow motherhood after loss reshapes who you are, how you parent, and how you move through the worldThis isn't a “look how far we've come” conversation.

This episode is about presence.I share openly about what's been unfolding in my own inner world. Not from the other side of healing, but from inside it.If you've noticed old patterns resurfacing, emotions repeating, or a quiet frustration that says “Why am I here again?” This conversation is for you.We talk about:Why growth moves in spirals, not straight linesWhat's actually happening when patterns revisit usThe unseen work happening beneath the surfaceHow shame and guilt sneak in when healing looks messyWhy returning doesn't mean failingThis is an invitation to soften the story you're telling yourself.To meet this moment with compassion rather than pressure.To remember that being in process doesn't mean being behind.You're not broken.You're not going backwards.And you're not alone.
I see three major mistakes that get made all the time among Nonprofit leaders when they're engaging decisionmakers. These mistakes will invariably cost you influence and results, especially funding results. Now more than ever, especially in this environment, you need both your existing funders and potential funders to be investing in your work at the highest level. But lately, when you go to talk to elected officials or government agency people or foundations, a lot of times you hear things like, well, there's not really any money right now. We can't afford it. It's not the right time. And you start to feel like all the stuff you came to tell them that explains why they need to invest is falling on deaf ears. They listen politely enough, but you can feel the resistance. And every time you have one of these conversations, your frustration goes up another notch, and your worry level goes up another notch too. 'Cause if we can't break through with these people, if we can't get them to get it, where's the money gonna come from? And then what? It's tempting to write off those decisionmakers or get mad at them. But if we really want their investment, we have to find a way in. If they're not getting the most essential pieces of what you do and the problem you solve, and the value that solution has, the impact that it makes, and the level of investment that is necessary in order to buy that impact. If they're not getting all of that, and not feeling motivated to find a way to make that investment. Then somewhere your messaging and engagement are not doing as good a job for you as they could. Chances are you may be making one or more of three very common and costly mistakes. In this episode, we share:Why most introductions create distance and disengagementHow to change up your introduction to pull decisonmakers in and make them want to know moreHow to weave points of alignment and relevance throughout the conversation to keep the decisionmaker investedThe critical reframe you must make to counter decisonmakers' claims of “there's not enough money”The secret to engaging a decisionmaker around the problems they're most concerned aboutThe most common erroneous assumption we make about why a decisionmaker's not “getting it,” and how that hurts usThe times when we're most vulnerable to the biggest engagement pitfalls, and how to stay alert to those Ready to take your messaging and engagement skills to the next level?

In this powerful and eye-opening Torah shiur, we uncover the deeper meaning behind the Isur of Gid HaNasheh (the sciatic nerve) and its profound connection to Achdus — Jewish unity.Why was Gid HaNasheh chosen as the very first negative commandment given to Klal Yisrael? How does a mitzvah of not eating create one of the strongest forces of unity among the Jewish people? And what timeless message does this mitzvah carry for our generation?✨ In this shiur, we explore:How not eating the Gid HaNasheh unifies all Jews simultaneouslyThe powerful insight of the Sefer HaChinuch — the nations may hurt us, but they can never destroy usThe deeper meaning behind the words “Gid HaNasheh” — hinting to forgetting achdusWhy the Torah is teaching us that it is forbidden to forget unityThe Ohr HaChaim's insight that the sciatic nerve has no flavor — symbolizing that every Jew brings their own unique “flavor” to the nationA relatable and humorous insight about Jewish cookbooks and why they always seem to sell best
Michael Holt is a holistic health expert, masculine vitality specialist, and martial artist whose work sits at the intersection of holistic health, meditation, and awakened masculine leadership.As the founder of the internationally renowned "Savage & Saint Collective", Michael serves elite performers in the cultivation of vitality, depth of consciousness, and performance excellence.His extensive background in meditation, martial arts, western psychology, core shamanism, holistic health, and exercise science comes together to form a unique approach that is trusted by top executives, founders, athletes, artists, and entertainers around the world.As I got deeper into Michael's work, I was struck by how naturally it aligns with a truth I've come to know in my own life:The masculine path requires our capacity to cultivate range and develop fluency in complementary opposing qualities, in Michael's terms, the Savage and the Saint...Simply put, the Savage is the part of us that is primal, instinctual, disciplined, relentless, and willing to meet and move through challenge.The Saint is the part of us that is awake, conscious, devoted, and anchored in truth, love, and a deep acceptance of each moment. In his work, Michael does not teach men to choose one or the other. He teaches them to integrate both, to train the body and sharpen the mind, to soften the heart and expand awareness, so a man can govern himself fully and live with clarity, direction, and depth.In his own life, he has forged a path that unmistakably reflects the depth of this integration. From decades of martial arts, qigong, and meditative practice, to years of guiding men through embodiment, discipline, and peak performance, Michael has developed a unique framework that helps men become dangerous and safe, powerful and compassionate, structured and spiritually awake.In this high-paced conversation between the two of us, we explore: The defining traits of the Savage and the Saint What it means to cultivate both the Savage and the Saint within oneselfWhy the biggest fear for many high performers is simply letting the sword down Why physical mastery is inseparable from spiritual developmentHow discipline can eventually be transformed into a way of devotion that becomes effortlessThe common misconceptions about what meditation actually is The real value of meditation and what it can teach usThe importance of emotional maintenance and the cost of letting emotional backlog accumulate How to build masculine vitality and strengthen your virility as a manThis was a potent and energizing conversation with a man who has spent countless hours honing his craft and dedicating himself to supporting men in becoming more integrated, grounded, and fully expressed in their masculine essence. If you're a man seeking more masculine range, vitality, & inner peace, I trust this episode will land deeply.—Connect with Alex Lehmann:
In this episode (originally aired on 6/5/24), I sit down with Eve Rodsky, creator, founder, and author of Fair Play: a life-management and household organization system. Eve and I discuss her feminist upbringing and how her experiences in the corporate world were inhospitable to motherhood, how she created the Fair Play system and why a “blueberry text” from her husband was the catalyst, and why it's essential to change from the reactive to the systematic when implementing change. Eve talks about the burden of invisible work that women so often take upon themselves in the home, she explains how the Fair Play cards work, and we discuss listener feedback on the most difficult parts of the mental load. Finally, we talk about why it's so hard to have these conversations with our partners, what defines a “unicorn space” versus other types of fun, and why it is essential for our happiness and longevity to create “I can't fucking believe I just did that” moments in our lives.Key Takeaway / Points:Why I recommend Eve's method to anyone who will listenOn “Fair Play,” Eve's life-management and household organization methodEve's upbringing in a post-70s feminist waveEve's experience as a young mother in the corporate worldWhy America isn't designed to support mothersOn the goal of being consistently interested in your own lifeWhy “hobbies” are not serving usThe “blueberry text” that led to Eve creating the Fair Play systemOn changing from the reactive to the systematicOn invisible work and “The Shit I Do” spreadsheetA deep dive into how the Fair Play cards workListener feedback on the most difficult parts of the mental loadWhy it's so difficult to have these conversationsWhy society views women's time as infiniteOn the sanctity of “unicorn space”On creating “I can't fucking believe I just did that” moments for yourselfStream the Fair Play documentary on Hulu HERERead Fair Play HEREBuy the Fair Play card deck HEREWatch this episode on YouTube HEREFollow Eve:Instagram: @fairplaylifeWebsite: www.fairplaylife.comFollow me:Instagram: @cameronoaksrogers and @conversations_with_camSubstack: Fill Your CupWebsite: cameronoaksrogers.comTikTok: @cameronoaksrogers and @conversations_with_camYoutube: Cameron Rogers
It's November — a time when many men grow moustaches to raise awareness for men's mental health and suicide prevention but beyond the facial hair, there's a much deeper conversation to be had.In this powerful and necessary episode, Matt speaks with Dubai-based clinical psychologist and coach Dr David Lee, founder of The Better Man Initiative. Together, they explore the stark reality that three out of four suicides are men — and ask the difficult question: what's going wrong?In this conversation, they explore:The shocking statistics around male suicide — and what they're telling usThe role of modern society and how it's failing young menThe influence of the manosphere, toxic masculinity, and online narrativesWhy men are still not talking — and what prevents them from doing soThe importance of community, safe spaces, and strong male role modelsThe surprising power of nostalgia, banter, and shared experienceWhy more men are needed in education and mental health fieldsLow-hanging fruit for better mental wellbeing — from movement to connectionIf you're a man who's struggling — or someone who loves and supports one — this episode is for you. It's a reminder that you're not alone, and that real help doesn't always start with therapy — it starts with conversation, connection, and compassion.Connect with Dr David Lee:IG: @davidleepsychologyFacebook: @DrDavid Lee Facebook Group.

“The tragedy of life is not that it ends so soon, but that we wait so long to begin it.” – W.M. LewisIn this solo episode, Michael reflects on the ways we delay the life that's calling us. He shares how he waited years to launch this very podcast and over a decade to write his book, Resonance, and what finally helped him get out of his own way.Drawing on Steven Pressfield's The War of Art and Elizabeth Gilbert's Big Magic, he explores the idea of the “muse” – that creative force that wants to move through us – and the counterforce Pressfield calls “resistance.” He weaves in stories from elders facing the end of their lives, including a man who had never once been met at the airport, and contrasts that with memories of his father, a man who always showed up.In this conversation, you'll hear about:Why we wait so long to begin the life that's meant for usThe muse, resistance, and how to finally start dancing with your creative callingThe difference between résumé goals and eulogy goalsWhat elders' regrets can teach us about how to live nowWhy relationships — the people who would pick you up at 2 a.m. — matter more than anythingThis is an invitation to stop postponing your real life, to sing your unique song, and to surround yourself with the people who help you play it beautifully. Michael Trainer has spent 30 years learning from Nobel laureates, neuroscientists, and wisdom keepers worldwide. He's the author of RESONANCE: The Art and Science of Human Connection (March 31, 2026), co-creator of Global Citizen and the Global Citizen Festival, and host of the RESONANCE podcast.Featured in Forbes, Inc, Good Morning America.

We dive into James Marsh's Project Nim—the wild “let's raise a chimp as a human” saga aimed at dunking on Noam/“Nim” Chomsky and proving apes can master language. What we actually get: sex-commune vibes, bad science, worse ethics, and one heartbreakingly charismatic chimp shunted between indulgent “parents,” media circuses, and grim laboratories.We talk:Language vs mimicry: 120+ signs learned…or just expert begging?The ‘parents': breast-feeding (!) and a roll-call of under-qualified carers.The professor: comb-over, cameras, and conclusions that nuke the funding.LEMSIP hell: cages, needles, PR panic—and the stoner saint Bob who actually cares.Violence & inevitability: cute baby ➝ teen primate with seven-men strength.Ethics, then and now: where the line is (and how far they trampled past it).Bits that floored usThe throwaway “I breastfed him.”Documenting Nim's Oedipal…metrics.A “sanctuary” with horses and one lonely chimp.A finale that's “interesting,” not “enjoyable.”Verdict (Bad Dads split decision)Fascinating, infuriating, essential—a five-alarm case study in how not to do science.

Send us a textPaul's critics said he was weak—but in Christ, weakness becomes the doorway to true strength. In this final section of 2 Corinthians, Paul challenges believers to examine themselves, to live with integrity, and to pursue restoration within the body of Christ. His message is not one of condemnation, but of edification—a call to be made whole, to stop doing evil, and to live for the truth.Key Themes:The meaning of being “disqualified” in ministryWhy self-examination is vital for believersThe pastor's heart behind correction and confrontationStrength through weakness: Christ's power in usThe purpose of all discipline—edification, not destructionReflection Verse:“For though He was crucified in weakness, yet He lives by the power of God.

As an HR Consultant I'm commonly asked "how much severance should I pay?" and the answer is it depends and maybe you should consult a lawyer. This episode is for Americans. I spoke with employment lawyer Leah Stiegler from Woods Rogers who outlined what drives severance decisions in America. We cover the critical difference between what you're legally required to pay (often nothing) and what makes business sense when you're trying to avoid litigation which is likely to cost you a lot more than severance.What you'll learn:Why severance is almost purely a business decision in the USThe biggest mistake people teams make around severanceThe importance of employment contractsWhen you need a lawyer Factors that determine severance amounts: age, position level, and litigation risk Leah is engaging and shared why paying severance without a legal release is like giving someone a bonus and then letting them sue you anyway. We also talked about disparagement clauses - how do you enforce them anyhow? No matter why you are terminating, this episode gives you a framework for thinking through the risks and costs involved. About Leah Stiegler Leah is a management-side employment lawyer and partner at Woods Rogers. She hosts the YouTube series "What's the Tea in L&E" and was recently interviewed by the New York Times for her workplace romance article (also a podcast episode!). Find me at https://thehrhub.ca

In this episode of Chai Beauty, I reflect on Session Six of the When You Pray Bible study, which focuses on interceding for others in prayer. While it's easy to pray for friends, intercession often challenges us most when it involves those who are difficult to love or those we've been separated from.I share how scriptures like 1 Peter 5:8–11 and Romans remind us that suffering is universal—and that God calls us to stand firm in faith by lifting others up, even in our own trials. Through personal stories and lessons, I explore the tension between selfishness and obedience, what it means to truly love with patience, and why forgiveness and reconciliation matter in God's eyes.We'll explore:Why interceding can feel harder than personal prayerLearning to pray for those who challenge usThe privilege of caring for others as God cares for usWhy forgiveness is for you, and reconciliation is for usLiving out patient, protective, and unconditional Christian love

In this conversation, I'm joined by the author of Sovereign, hypnotist, and fellow ex-Mormon, Michaelann Gardner. Sovereign explores chronic pain, marriage, and faith in a way that connects to the experiences and stories of so many women—even those who don't share the same religious background. It's about sex, disordered eating, and divorce, but it's also about finding your desire and allowing it to guide you into a promised land that may look different from what you imagined. Here's what we cover:How the story of Adam and Eve became a framework to explore ideas about faith, bodies, and reconciliationHow the wisdom of desire can act as a powerful guide if we trust it to lead usThe reawakening of hunger and desire as a catalyst for telling the truth to ourselves and othersHow cultural conditioning impacts the way both men and women show up in marriage and sexThe disconnect between the church's view of sex as “sacred” and the lived experience of sexHow the pain of disconnection and dishonesty manifests in the bodiesFind Michaelann here:https://michaelanngardner.com/https://www.instagram.com/michaelann.gardnerhttps://www.amazon.com/Sovereign-Michaelann-Gardner/dp/1961471175Find Sara here:https://sarafisk.coachhttps://pages.sarafisk.coach/difficultconversationshttps://www.instagram.com/sarafiskcoach/https://www.facebook.com/SaraFiskCoaching/https://www.tiktok.com/@sarafiskcoachhttps://www.youtube.com/@sarafiskcoaching1333What happens inside the free Stop People Pleasing Facebook Community?

In this sobering and deeply reflective conclusion to Proverbs chapter 5, the Morning Manna team unpacks verses 20–23, revealing how God views the secret motives, habits, and spiritual choices we make over a lifetime. What begins as a warning against the seductive “strange woman” is elevated into a powerful metaphor for sin in all its forms—sexual, spiritual, financial, relational. The teaching drives home that God's eyes do not blink; He sees and ponders all our paths.Rick and Doc explore:The intoxicating allure of sin and how it captivates usThe symbolic meaning of the “strange woman” as spiritual adulteryHow our own iniquities become self-made trapsGod's role not as a punisher, but a pondering, grace-filled Father who desires repentance and restorationThe terrifying truth that some may die without instruction, having rejected wisdom their entire livesThis episode is a call to personal holiness, a plea to break the cords of sin through repentance, and a reminder that nothing is hidden from the unblinking eyes of the Lord.Join the leading community for Conservative Christians! https://www.FaithandValues.comYou can partner with us by visiting https://www.FaithandValues.com/donate, calling 1-800-576-2116, or by mail at PO Box 399 Vero Beach, FL 32961.Get high-quality emergency preparedness food today from American Reserves!https://www.AmericanReserves.comIt's the Final Day!
