Podcasts about Viktor Frankl

In this episode, I dive into Carrie Jenkins' book Sad Love: Romance and the Search for Meaning. At first glance, the title might make you think it's all about heartbreak—but what Jenkins actually offers is a fresh way of thinking about love: eudaimonic love. I talk about Jenkins' background as a philosopher at the University of British Columbia, her creative approach to love, and why she moves beyond Aristotle's vision of the “good life”—a vision that, surprisingly, excluded people he considered “ugly.”Instead, Jenkins reimagines eudaimonia as “good spirits” and highlights how love is really about the environments and relationships that nurture meaning. I also unpack her critique of hedonism and the romantic ideal of being “madly in love,” showing how she reframes love as a collaborative project—about co-creating a meaningful life with another person. Along the way, I share Jenkins' engagement with Viktor Frankl, who reminds us that “love, like happiness, cannot be pursued; it must ensue.”If you've ever felt boxed in by traditional scripts around love, or you're looking for a deeper, more authentic way to think about relationships, this conversation is for you.

Ref.: Prof. Dr. Alexander Batthyány, Leiter des Viktor-Frankl-Instituts in Wien und Direktor des Viktor-Frankl-Forschungsinstituts in Budapest Jeder Mensch wünscht sich, sein Potential voll zu entfalten und ein glückliches Leben zu führen. "Achte auf dich und auf das, was dich erfüllt und zufrieden macht!" - das ist heute der verbreitete Ratschlag zum Thema Glücklichsein. Der bekannte jüdische Psychiater DDr. Viktor Emil Frankl hätte davon wenig gehalten. Er war der Auffassung, dass der Mensch sich nur dann selbst verwirklicht, wenn er einen Sinn findet, der über ihn selbst hinausreicht. Frankl hatte in den Konzentrationslagern Theresienstadt und Auschwitz erfahren, wie seine Sorge um den Verlust seines therapeutisches Lebenswerks ihn in den furchtbarsten Situationen am Leben hielt. In diesem Jahr wäre Frankl 120 Jahre alt geworden - aber die von ihm begründete "Logotherapie" ist so aktuell wie eh und je. Prof. Dr. Alexander Batthyány ist Philosoph, Kognitionswissenschaftler und Psychotherapieforscher. Er ist wissenschaftlicher Leiter des Viktor-Frankl-Instituts in Wien und des Viktor-Frankl-Forschungsinstitut an der Katholischen Péter-Pázmány-Universität in Budapest. Er ist Mitherausgeber der Gesammelten Werke von Viktor E. Frankl und Begründer des seit 2012 alle zwei Jahre stattfindenden Weltkongresses für Logotherapie und Existenzanalyse (Wien und Moskau). Zitat Viktor Frankl: "Es kommt nie und nimmer darauf an, was wir vom Leben zu erwarten haben, viel mehr lediglich darauf: Was das Leben von uns erwartet.

The devastation eventually informed Viktor's theory, known as Logotherapy, which posits that those who are oriented towards finding meaning even in the most dire circumstances are more likely to feel fulfilled. Alexander also discusses his film Viktor & I, an intimate portrait of his grandfather as revealed by those who worked with, studied under, and loved him.  About Alexander Vesely: Alexander Vesely, M.Sc., Dr. h.c., is an award-winning documentary filmmaker, licensed psychotherapist specializing in Logotherapy and Existential Analysis, and the grandson of Dr. Viktor Frankl, author of the classic Man's Search for Meaning.

First up is Dr. Arian Hatefi, author of the debut middle grade novel A Seal Upon the Heart.

Arian opens up about the importance of being present, the power of storytelling, and why kids deserve honest conversations about grief and mortality. He also discusses how his book, based on his own family, helps children process difficult emotions and encourages parents to use stories as a bridge to deeper discussions. Next, Jed chats with Dr. Letishia Jefferson (Dr. J), pediatrician and author of Zoe's Day with Dr. J, along with illustrator Bonnie Bright.

Hello Witches Join me on todays episode of The White Witch Podcast where I dive deep into the realms of psychology, spirit and alchemy to uncover what it truly means to transform your life from the inside out. We explore - Viktor Frankl vs Freud – Why Frankl's forward-facing philosophy of meaning and responsibility may serve us more than Freud's obsession with the past. The Future Self – Connecting with your highest timeline and how to embody it now. Heaven & Hell Frequencies – The vibrations we step into daily Silence as God-Connection – How silence can be the most potent portal to the divine. Attention vs Intention – The difference between where our energy goes and what your energy consecrates. This is a contemplative episode – less about quick fixes and more about the deep shift into living as The Alchemist of your own existence. Journal prompts I use as referenced in this episode are - How do I feel in my body and energy field right now? What am I consciously calling in today? If it was already mine how would I feel and act? What aligned action or frequency shift can I take today to meet my desire? What limiting belief. fear or doubt is ready to be released? What new belief am I anchoring in its place? How can I hold the frequency of trust today no matter what? What signs, synchronicities or nudges have I received lately? What does my future self want me to remember today? One thing I am grateful for and one thing I am excited for? Grimoire pages are attached with journal prompts, rituals and concepts mentioned in this episode.

Willkommen zur Paperwings Podcast-Folge direkt aus dem Metaforum Sommercamp in Abano, Italien!

David Hawig never set out to work in blockchain. He began his career in health tech, drawn to the potential of scaling impactful solutions. But it was the promise of a more transparent and user-controlled internet that ultimately led him to the Web3 Foundation, where he now serves as Director of Ecosystem Development and Investor Relations. In our conversation on the Tech Talks Daily Podcast, David shares why Web3 is not just a trend or buzzword, but a complete rethink of how digital systems should function. He describes a world where users own their data, can verify transactions without relying on central authorities, and can move between services without friction. To David, the Web3 movement is not about hype or speculation. It's about enabling a future where the internet is built on truth, not trust. At the heart of the Web3 Foundation's work is Polkadot, a protocol designed to solve the scalability and interoperability challenges that plague many early blockchain networks. David explains that Polkadot's sharded infrastructure allows workloads to be split across participants in a trustless way. This setup not only enables more transactions but positions the ecosystem to support millions of users as mainstream adoption accelerates. That acceleration, he argues, is already happening. Thanks to new regulations like the Clarity Act and Genius Act in the US, enterprise adoption is becoming a reality. Where Web3 once attracted only startups and crypto-native communities, today major companies, including sports brands and entertainment groups, are actively building in the space. Unlike earlier efforts that felt more like PR stunts, these companies now see tangible benefits. Web3 can deliver faster, cheaper, and more flexible digital services, available 24/7, with no lock-in to single vendors. David is especially passionate about removing the barriers that have made Web3 feel intimidating to the average user. While early blockchain projects often demanded technical knowledge and wallet key management, he sees a future where users interact with Web3 products as easily as they would a mobile app. Behind the scenes, cryptography and decentralization are doing the heavy lifting, but from the user's perspective, the experience is seamless. One area David is particularly excited about is decentralized storage. As more businesses realize the risks of relying on centralized cloud giants, alternatives are emerging that offer both cost advantages and greater control. He sees this as a critical part of the broader shift toward self-sovereign infrastructure. When asked if large corporations truly understand the scale of the disruption ahead, David is cautious but optimistic. Many established players, he says, still underestimate how quickly network effects can take hold. Once enough users and companies move into Web3 ecosystems, the old models will no longer be competitive. Whether it's financial services, social media, or identity management, the shift toward user-owned infrastructure will be difficult to reverse. Looking ahead to 2026 and beyond, David points to the upcoming Jam upgrade as a major milestone. This next evolution of the Polkadot network is designed to dramatically improve scalability, supporting not just crypto-native transactions but also broader use cases in gaming, ticketing, payments, and more. The goal is clear: create a robust, low-cost, interoperable infrastructure capable of supporting millions of users across different networks and applications. Before signing off, David leaves listeners with a recommendation. He suggests reading Man's Search for Meaning by Viktor Frankl, a book he returns to often when reflecting on motivation and purpose. It's a fitting choice for someone working at the edge of one of the most transformative shifts in modern tech. The Web3 Foundation is not just funding protocols or building tools. It's laying the groundwork for a future where the internet belongs to everyone. And if David's predictions are right, that future may arrive faster than we think.

In the unspeakable darkness of the Nazi concentration camps of World War II, Viktor Frankl famously said, “What is to give light must endure burning.” It is a line that glows with quiet terror—and truth. For there is no true light in this world that has not come through some flame. Even stars must burn to shine. In order for something to be luminous or radiant warmth, it must die to itself. It is written in the very laws of thermodynamics. The price to enjoy life on earth, for example, our sun must spend itself: in 5 billion years it will phase into a Red Giant as it exhausts its hydrogen, then into a Planetary Nebula, and finally into a White Dwarf, slowly cooling off into oblivion. And so it is with souls.Christ Himself declares today in this Sunday's Gospel passage, “I have come to bring fire on the earth, and how I wish it were already kindled!” Not the fire of destruction, but the fire of love—fierce, purifying, and sacrificial. It is the fire of a heart ablaze, the fire of the Cross, where God gave not just light, but Himself. There is a truth so beautifully strange and yet so profoundly simple that it might be mistaken for folly by the wisdom of the world. It is the great Christian paradox: that we find our true selves not by grasping tighter, but by dying entirely; that the road to life is paved by the death of our egotistical desires.In an age that celebrates the self as king, the notion of dying to one's own needs and ambitions seems almost absurd. Yet this is precisely the wisdom that Christianity proclaims with a joyful boldness. We are invited to a paradoxical journey where losing our life in the service of others is the very means by which we gain it. “He who loses his life for my sake,” said Christ, “will find it.” Think of it: the ego, that restless tyrant demanding attention, acclaim, and self-preservation, must be dethroned. It is only when we say “No” to our selfish cravings that we open the door to a fuller, richer life. This is not a diminishment but a liberation—a liberation from the chains of the self that bind us to loneliness, fear, and despair.Like a candle that burns itself to give light, or a seed that falls into the earth to rise in newness, the Christian life calls us to die to self so that we may truly live. This death is not a bleak end but a joyful transformation. The gift of ourselves—freely given, without calculation—is the very thing that reveals the depth and dignity of our souls. And here lies the great wonder: in the giving of ourselves, we are given to ourselves in return. The self that seemed so fragile and fleeting is made eternal in the embrace of grace. It is a truth that will bring this fire upon the earth. --- Help Spread the Good News --- Father Brian's homilies are shared freely thanks to generous listeners like you.

In this thought-provoking episode of "Father and Joe," hosts Father Boniface and Joe Rockey delve into the profound meaning of sacrifice in the context of spiritual growth and our relationship with God. Building upon past discussions, they explore the deeper implications of the phrase "accept these sacrifices at my hands" uttered during the Mass.Father Boniface clarifies that this sacrificial act extends beyond the bread and wine to encompass every aspect of our being. They engage in a rich dialogue about how love and sacrifice are intrinsically linked, emphasizing that true love inherently involves sacrifice for others and for God. By examining the sacrifice of Christ as the model, Father Boniface offers insights into how we can learn to sacrifice in our everyday lives, using this process as an opportunity for personal transformation and spiritual alignment.The conversation also navigates the human condition—our desire for tangible outcomes from our sacrifices, and the challenge of embracing uncertainty in the midst of suffering. Drawing on the wisdom of Viktor Frankl and Pope Francis, they discuss the importance of a "sufficient why" in enduring hardships and the mysterious, global impact of our sacrificial acts. Father Boniface highlights the iterative journey of discipleship, where Jesus continually helps us correct course and align more closely with the divine model.Ending on an encouraging note, this episode aims to deepen your understanding of sacrifice as an integral part of love and spiritual growth. Whether you are preparing for the next Mass or reflecting on life's struggles, this discussion offers valuable insights into how God transforms our offerings through His grace. Join Father Boniface and Joe as they invite you to view sacrifice not as mere suffering, but as a powerful tool for personal and communal transformation.Tags:sacrifice, spiritual growth, relationship with God, Father Boniface, Joe Rockey, love and sacrifice, Mass, holy Eucharist, spiritual journey, discipleship, Viktor Frankl, Pope Francis, mystery of faith, personal transformation, spiritual alignment, religious podcast, Catholic teachings, Christian life, divine model, self-offering, mercy, spiritual direction, meaningful relationship, Christian doctrine, spiritual reflection, community life, religious service, divine love, intercession, confessional life, grace, suffering, faith journey, crucified love, worship, Christian faith, spiritual guidance, faith community, transformative power, sacrifice of Christ, act of love, spiritual insights, union with GodHashtags:#Sacrifice #SpiritualGrowth #RelationshipWithGod #FatherBoniface #JoeRockey #LoveAndSacrifice #Mass #HolyEucharist #SpiritualJourney #Discipleship #ViktorFrankl #PopeFrancis #MysteryOfFaith #PersonalTransformation #SpiritualAlignment #ReligiousPodcast #CatholicTeachings #ChristianLife #DivineModel #SelfOffering #Mercy #SpiritualDirection #MeaningfulRelationship #ChristianDoctrine #SpiritualReflection #CommunityLife #ReligiousService #DivineLove #Intercession #ConfessionalLife #Grace #Suffering #FaithJourney #CrucifiedLove #Worship #ChristianFaith #SpiritualGuidance #FaithCommunity #TransformativePower #SacrificeOfChrist #ActOfLove #SpiritualInsights #UnionWithGodThis line is here to correct the site's formatting error.

Let me know your thoughts on the show and what topic you would like me to discuss next.What happens when the doctor becomes the patient? Dr. Michael J. Hession's world turned upside down when a simple cold escalated into life-threatening pneumonia, putting him on a ventilator for 11 days followed by complete paralysis from Guillain-Barré syndrome. His remarkable journey from the edge of death to recovery offers powerful lessons about resilience, purpose, and finding happiness in the face of overwhelming adversity.The distinguished cardiologist shares his near-death experience where he encountered a luminous figure who told him, "It is not your time, you must go back. There's much to do." This profound spiritual moment, coupled with the brutal realities of rehabilitation – learning to swallow, sit up, and eventually walk again – transformed his understanding of what it means to be both a physician and a human being.Drawing wisdom from Viktor Frankl, Admiral Stockdale, and his own father's immigrant tenacity, Dr. Hession developed a framework for overcoming seemingly impossible challenges: acknowledge the facts, accept the situation without anger or denial, and adapt by finding a path forward. His story demonstrates how vulnerability and strength can coexist, and how gratitude becomes the foundation for genuine happiness.For anyone supporting loved ones through critical illness, Dr. Hession offers crucial insights about the power of presence. Even when patients appear unresponsive, they can likely hear and remember conversations – connections that provide an essential lifeline during the disorienting experience of intensive care. Whether you're facing health challenges, career setbacks, or relationship difficulties, his three-step approach provides a roadmap for navigating life's most daunting obstacles.Ready to transform your own challenges into opportunities for growth?

The internet is full of memes about positive thinking. I saw this quote a few days ago:"The only difference between a good day and a bad day is your attitude." At first glance, it contains some truth. Of course, the way we think about things can influence our relationship with them. But taken too far, this kind of thinking turns into something insidious and destructive. In this episode of The Gentle Rebel Podcast, we explore the darker side of positive thinking. https://youtu.be/E0JCsl_u_7M?si=XAHxf4c2LB578QIr I remember hearing someone suggest replacing 'have to' with 'get to' as a way to live with more gratitude for things we take for granted. Again, that can definitely be a useful reframe at times. But the associated claim that words impact thoughts and thoughts are the only thing that create our reality can quickly become an imprisoning and judgemental superstition. Toxic positivity encourages emotional suppression and shame, where anything other than optimism is considered weakness or failure. You've Only Got Yourself To Blame If we follow the logic that our thoughts dictate our reality to its extreme, we land in a society shaped by what philosopher Byung-Chul Han calls the achievement imperative. In this world, external rules are replaced by internal commands. We no longer respond to "you should" or "you must." Instead, we internalise the injunction to perpetually "live our passion," "find our purpose," and "optimise our potential." Han quotes Tony Robbins, who promotes this mindset by saying,"When you set a goal, you've committed to CANI (Constant, Never-Ending Improvement)! You've acknowledged the need that all human beings have for constant, never-ending improvement. There is a power in the pressure of dissatisfaction, in the tension of temporary discomfort. This is the kind of pain you want in your life." This leads to a permanent state of temporary discomfort. There is always something to optimise, improve, and change. Never rest. Never be satisfied. The Problem With Pathological Positivity Toxic positivity - we might describe it as pathological positivity (though I've seen a book of that name painting it as a desirable state of being, so that's a bit odd)- thrives on the belief that we should reframe negative thoughts. But there is a big difference between resistance and repression. A good comparison comes from Viktor Frankl, the Holocaust survivor, founder of logotherapy and author of Man's Search for Meaning. He wrote:"We who lived in concentration camps can remember the men who walked through the huts comforting others, giving away their last piece of bread. They may have been few in number, but they offer sufficient proof that everything can be taken from a man but one thing: the last of the human freedoms—to choose one's attitude in any given set of circumstances, to choose one's own way". Choosing Your Response vs Blaming Your Attitude Unlike self-help slogans, Frankl's words do not offer easy comfort. He was not promoting positive thinking. He was describing something he observed in those who were stripped of their humanity and subjected to unimaginable suffering. For Frankl, attitude was not a shortcut to happiness or material prosperity, but a form of resistance and an expression of power over an oppressor. It was a way to maintain dignity in the face of dehumanisation. His message was not about pretending things are okay, but about facing reality with courage and integrity. This contrasts with James Allen's 1903 As a Man Thinketh, often credited with laying the foundation for mindset-focused personal development and the Law of Attraction. Allen writes:"All that a man achieves and all that he fails to achieve is the direct result of his own thoughts.""Suffering is always the effect of wrong thought." These statements are not just simplistic. They can be dangerous. They suggest that all suffering is self-inflicted, that illness, grief,

On this episode of The Karen Kenney Show, we're exploring how we're all "meaning-making machines.”We dive into how basically, our brains are constantly trying to make sense of everything and everyone that happens to us. I break down how we both consciously and subconsciously assign meaning to events, experiences, and environments, and often with a negative spin - thanks to our brain's built-in negativity bias.I also share some powerful insights from Viktor Frankl, a neurologist, psychologist, and Holocaust survivor who taught and wrote in his book - Man's Search for Meaning - that finding meaning can help us survive anything. Something that I've learned over the years? We actually have a choice in how we choose to interpret our experiences.We can choose to see things through a lens of love or fear, and that choice can totally transform our perspective. But here's the crucial part - while we get to choose the meaning for our own lives…We can't and shouldn't decide the meaning for other people's experiences. Telling someone, "Everything happens for a reason" when they're grieving or suffering isn't helpful - it's dismissive. Sometimes things just don't make sense, ​no matter how hard we try to figure it out, or want to make meaning of it. So, I encourage us all to be aware of the stories you're telling yourself, choose a perspective that empowers you, and remember that you don't have to or may not be able to understand everything.Sometimes the mystery is part of the journey.If we can “work with what happens”, find our joy, and keep moving forward… we can gradually, but inevitable turn our stories into our glory! ❤️ KK'S KEY TAKEAWAYS:•​ Humans are naturally wired to assign meaning to their experiences, often subconsciously and with a tendency towards negativity.•​ We have the power to choose how we interpret the events of our lives.•​ Viktor Frankl's philosophy teaches that finding meaning can help us survive almost anything, even in the most challenging circumstances.•​ Our brain's meaning-making process is a survival mechanism that helps us feel safer by trying to make sense of our experiences.•​ While we can control the meaning we assign to our own life, we cannot and should not dictate meaning for others people's experiences.•​ Saying things like "Everything happens for a reason") - can be harmful and dismissive of genuine suffering.•​ Some experiences will never make sense. Sometimes, acceptance is part of the healing process.•​ Shifting our perspective from "This happened to me" to "This happened for me" can be helpful and transformative, but this shift must come naturally from within and not be forced.•​ Our meaning-making ability is a skill we can develop, improve and update, by gaining new insights, experiences, and personal growth.BIO:Spiritual mentor and writer Karen Kenney uses humor and dynamic storytelling to bring a down-to-earth, no-BS perspective to self-development Bringing together tools that coach the conscious and unconscious mind, Karen helps clients deepen their connections with Self, and discover their unique understandings of spirituality.

I have been sitting with a lot of emotions, like many of you, I am sure. The state of the world right now is heavy, overwhelming and a bit surreal. Before we dive into today's topic, I wanted to share some thoughts on that, because pretending everything is “normal” just doesn't feel right. Times are tough right now and this tells me that the work I do in the world is important. The work I do, the tools and my coaching, combine to help you not get pulled under by the weight of everything happening in the USA and the world right now.  Viktor Frankl was an Austrian neurologist, psychologist, philosopher and Holocaust survivor. I can't help but think of his words right now, as what we are experiencing feels similar. Viktor taught us that no one can take away the way we think and our attitude about our life. When I think of the unimaginable horror that he lived through, and millions of others, his words give me hope and a reminder to make sure we tend to your mind and heart.  And THIS is the reason I will continue doing my work, even though times feel very heavy. And then, once we have grounded in that reality, I want to take us somewhere deeper, into the heart of self confidence. Not the kind that is all surface level pep talk, but the real kind. The kind that grows quietly from trusting yourself and having your own back, no matter what is happening outside of you. I also want to introduce you to, or remind you, of one of my favorite coaching tools. I am going to walk you through my thought model, a tool to help you see how your thoughts create your life. I know it is much more complicated than that, but, let's start there. I can and will help you learn to manage your mind and heart, Wildflower. This is what I do. I would love to work with you and help you through these times.  Reach out via my website or email me amy@amyloganlife.com

What if the most resilient people aren't the ones who bounce back quickly—but those who allow themselves to break, feel, grieve, and still move forward?In this heartfelt episode, we explore tragic optimism—a powerful reframe introduced by Viktor Frankl—and how it allows us to hold both pain and hope without bypassing either. You'll learn how real resilience comes not from fixing or rushing, but from the ability to live with the full truth of what is and keep going anyway.We'll explore:• Why “bouncing back” is a cultural myth• What tragic optimism really means (and what it's not)• The nervous system's role in resilience and meaning-making• The 3 Ps of pessimism—and how to unlearn them• Practical tools to regulate your body, reframe your thoughts, and hold space for grief and growth at onceThis is your invitation to stop striving to return to “how things used to be”—and instead, build capacity to bounce forward with wisdom, gentleness, and courage.Timestamps:00:00 – Resilient people aren't the fastest to recover06:55 – When Breath Becomes Air & the phrase “devastatingly beautiful”10:14 – What tragic optimism really means (Viktor Frankl)13:05 – Why it's not toxic positivity (Brad Stulberg's take)15:15 – Introducing learned optimism (Martin Seligman)17:32 – The 3 Ps of pessimism and how to flip them20:18 – Why your nervous system must feel safe before optimism is possible23:12 – You can't access nuance from a dysregulated state25:50 – The nervous system's role in meaning-making28:36 – Post-traumatic growth: Making meaning, not finding it31:45 – What it means to hold both pain and hope33:58 – How to actually practice tragic optimism36:10 – Step 1: Reframe with “both/and” language37:15 – Step 2: Befriend your nervous system, not fight it38:48 – Step 3: Hold space for others with “Tell me more”40:10 – What resilience really looks like: bouncing forward41:50 – Why regulating isn't about avoiding pain—it's about holding it43:30 – Final thoughts: You can be devastatingly beautiful too

In this powerful and emotionally rich episode of the Human Intimacy Podcast, Dr. Kevin Skinner and MaryAnn Michaelis shift the focus from trauma to transformation. While past episodes have explored the symptoms of post-traumatic stress following betrayal, this conversation is all about post-traumatic growth—the process of finding meaning, strength, and purpose through adversity. MaryAnn shares her personal journey from betrayal and pain to advocacy and healing, culminating in a major Supreme Court ruling protecting children online—an experience that represents a full-circle moment in her growth process. The discussion weaves in key psychological theories, including Viktor Frankl's Man's Search for Meaning, the Post-Traumatic Growth Inventory, and Carol Dweck's Growth Mindset, all while grounding the conversation in the realities of lived experience. Listeners will be inspired to see their own hardships not as dead ends but as turning points—opportunities to grow, to give back, and to reclaim a sense of self and connection. Resources Mentioned in This Episode: Post-Traumatic Growth Inventory Developed by Richard Tedeschi & Lawrence Calhoun to measure personal growth following trauma. Learn more Man's Search for Meaning by Viktor Frankl A classic on finding purpose through suffering, based on Frankl's time in a concentration camp.

In this special in-person episode, Travis Goodman and Pierre Azzam sit down for a raw, honest conversation about purpose—what it really means, why it's so easy to feel disconnected from it, and how community plays a crucial role in helping men discover it.Together, they explore why so many men struggle to find clarity around purpose in today's world—and how trying to do it alone often leads to burnout, confusion, or isolation. Drawing from Viktor Frankl's Man's Search for Meaning and their own work with men, Travis and Pierre emphasize that purpose isn't just a personal quest—it's relational. Real meaning is forged in connection, service, and shared values.You'll also hear a breakdown of the 5 Ps of Purpose—a practical framework we use in The Men's Collective to help men move from abstract goals to grounded daily action.Key takeaways: Why clarity of purpose often requires community, not just introspection How ego and isolation get in the way of meaningful progress What the 5 Ps of Purpose are and how they guide men toward real momentumWhere are you searching for purpose alone—and what might open up if you invited another man into the conversation?

In today's episode, Gina discusses the value of assuming a volunteer mindset in contrast to a victim mindset. The victim mindset is characterized by the idea that the feelings, sensations and thoughts we encounter are being done to us, and that we have no choice and no power in the matter. The volunteer mindset is characterized by a willingness to face and accept the challenges that our lives in the world bring to us. Gina offers suggestions for making the transition from victim mindset to volunteer mindset.Please visit our Sponsor Page to find all the links and codes for our awesome sponsors!https://www.theanxietycoachespodcast.com/sponsors/ Thank you for supporting The Anxiety Coaches Podcast.

This discussion explores how our perceptions of feelings, sensations, and thoughts often lead us to adopt a victim mindset, feeling as if life's challenges are acting upon us rather than being experiences we can navigate. Recognizing this mindset is the first step toward empowerment, as it often leads to feelings of helplessness, contributing to both anxiety and depression.I emphasize the importance of awareness in this journey; acknowledging that we are not inherently broken or victimized by our circumstances, but rather we have the ability to reframe our experiences. Drawing from the wisdom of Viktor Frankl, I remind listeners that true power lies in our capacity to choose. While anxiety can be consuming, it's crucial to remember that we can alter the narrative from being passive recipients of our fears to actively engaging with them as volunteers.The discussion transitions into exploring what this “volunteer” mindset entails. I encourage listeners to embrace life's challenges with courage, facing fears head-on instead of succumbing to overwhelming feelings of being victimized by life's circumstances. By accepting our situation while also acknowledging our ability to respond with strength, we allow ourselves the opportunity to extinguish the fires of anxiety rather than fuel them further.#anxiety #mindsetshift #victimtovolunteer #stressmanagement #mentalhealth #courage #powerofchoice #mindfulness #relaxation #selfhelp #personalgrowth #copingstrategies #mentalwellness #emotionalregulation #resilience #selfcompassion #innerstrength #wellbeing #livedexperienceSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We often talk about strategy, technology, and profit as the engines of success. And in times of rapid change and uncertainty, it's easy to double down on those levers. But what if we're missing the most important one?In this episode of the Happiness Squad Podcast, Niren Chaudhary, former CEO of Panera Brands, joins Ashish Kothari to share a leadership philosophy rooted in something many leaders overlook: love and care for people. Because at the end of the day, companies aren't machines, they're human systems. And when we treat people like family, they show up with heart, commitment, and a desire to go above and beyond.Niren reflects on lessons from decades at Tata, Yum! Brands, and Panera, breaking down how to build cultures where values are lived, not laminated, and how leaders can turn care for people into a competitive advantage. He also opens up about how the loss of his daughter Aisha Chaudhary profoundly reshaped how he sees leadership, success, and the legacy we leave behind.What you'll also learn in this episode:• Why business is fundamentally a human-to-human experience• The leadership model that starts with love and leads to profit• How to hire for attitude and train for skill• Why success begins with the right people, doing the right things, the right way• The butterfly effect of investing in your people• Why resilience, curiosity, and generosity are non-negotiables in business and lifeThis conversation is a reminder that in business and in life, what matters most is how we show up for one another.Tune into the full episode to hear Niren's powerful stories and practical wisdom on what it really means to lead with love.Resources:• Smile A Lot by Thich Nhat Hanh: https://www.awakin.org/v2/read/view.php?tid=168 • The Sky is Pink (Aisha Chaudhary): https://youtu.be/OnBN5b48HBc?si=_FcybEn8N_yhatF9 • Black Sunshine Baby (Aisha Chaudhary): https://youtu.be/Hkf7n7m_KgY?si=THIQQMkGNUE3_-9c • The Power of Well-being at Work by Jan-Emmanuel De Neve: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K4OWg12Xl5E • CORE Meditation: https://get.hyperice.com/core Books:• My Little Epiphanies by Aisha Chaudhary: https://a.co/d/2E4vtQx • Man's Search for Meaning by Viktor Frankl: https://a.co/d/2CvRJSu • How Will You Measure Your Life by Clay Chistensen: https://a.co/d/jkZPwb5 • Hardwired for Happiness by Ashish Kothari: https://a.co/d/gML83VJ

Sonny Von Cleveland: Vocalizing Our Pain to Heal | The Hopeaholics Podcast Sonny Von Cleveland—a man who turned a life marked by profound trauma into a beacon of hope and redemption. From a childhood scarred by molestation beginning at age three, a felony charge at seven, and a harrowing prison sentence at 16, Sonny's story is one of survival against unimaginable odds. He opens up about enduring a violent prison environment, including a brutal assault in his first week, and how he adopted a gang mentality to survive, only to face a pivotal moment in solitary confinement in 2004 after a drug-fueled crime spree landed him back behind bars. A mentor's persistent question—“Why are you so angry?”—sparked a 19-month transformation, teaching Sonny emotional intelligence, forgiveness, and the power of vocalizing pain through writing forgiveness letters and reading Man's Search for Meaning by Viktor Frankl. Emerging from prison in 2016 at age 35, Sonny built a music career, signed with Ferocious Records, and later pivoted to YouTube success, only to face new challenges, including betrayal and the loss of his channel. Now married to a woman he met through a podcast, Sonny runs Frisky Business, the only cat café in the Coachella Valley, and the Von Cleveland Foundation, while speaking at schools and juvenile halls to break cycles of abuse. He shares his upcoming 22-city U.S. tour, “Conversations of Redemption,” starting July 1, where he'll explore city traumas and invite people to share their stories, partnered with Operation Light Shine to combat child sex abuse material. This episode is a testament to the human spirit's resilience, showing that no matter how dark the past, healing is possible through vulnerability and purpose.#thehopeaholics #redemption #recovery #AlcoholAddiction #addictionrecoverypodcast  #wedorecover  #SobrietyJourney #MyStory #RecoveryIsPossible #Hope #wedorecover Join our patreon to get access to an EXTRA EPISODE every week of ‘Off the Record', exclusive content, a thriving recovery community, and opportunities to be featured on the podcast. https://patreon.com/TheHopeaholics Follow the Hopeaholics on our Socials:https://www.instagram.com/thehopeaholics https://linktr.ee/thehopeaholicsBuy Merch: https://thehopeaholics.myshopify.comVisit our Treatment Centers: https://www.hopebythesea.comIf you or a loved one needs help, please call or text 949-615-8588.

Hey friends, Chase here. Ever feel like your mind is all over the place? Emails. Notifications. News. Noise. We live in a world designed to hijack our attention, and it's working. Attention Is a Superpower In a world this noisy, your ability to focus isn't just helpful. It's everything. Viktor Frankl found purpose in the darkest of places by choosing where to direct his mind. Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi discovered flow while surviving war by focusing on a single game of chess. Louis Zamperini endured torture by turning his attention toward faith and forgiveness. These weren't magic tricks. They were choices. Repeated. Intentional. Life-saving. What You Focus On Becomes Your Life Science backs it up. As Dr. Andrew Huberman says, “The ability to focus and direct one's attention is the distinguishing factor between those who will succeed and those who won't.” That's not just about work or goals. That's about everything. Your relationships. Your health. Your sense of self. Because attention doesn't just shape what you see. It shapes who you become. Train Your Attention Like Your Life Depends on It You don't have to escape to the mountains or delete every app on your phone. You just have to start noticing where your attention goes, and gently bring it back to what matters most. Ask yourself: What am I really focusing on right now? Is it helping me or draining me? What would happen if I chose differently? Your attention is yours. Don't give it away without a fight. Until next time, stay focused and stay free.  

This episode dives into the brutal, mind-altering experience of spending 60 days alone in Antarctica, and how extreme suffering became a catalyst for spiritual awakening, peak performance, and deep inner peace. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with elite adventurer, Marine Corps veteran, and Fearvana founder Akshay Nanavati, who dragged a 420lb sled solo across Antarctica in a brutal test of endurance, fasting, and spiritual transformation. Akshay shares how he used suffering as a tool to transmute PTSD, expand consciousness, and awaken what he calls the “paradox of oneness”—where discomfort unlocks the deepest joy. Together, they explore how cold therapy, isolation, and extreme hardship reshape dopamine, mitochondria, neurochemistry, and the stories we tell ourselves. Akshay's journey through darkness retreats, trauma healing, and polar expeditions opens a raw and unfiltered look at self-quantification, mental resilience, and human performance at the edge. This episode will challenge your assumptions about comfort, suffering, and what it means to live fully awake. Whether you're optimizing for longevity, exploring consciousness, or breaking free from invisible scripts, this conversation blends science, spirituality, and hardcore biohacking with moments of unexpected humor and wisdom. You'll Learn: • How intentional pain resets your dopamine response and boosts performance • Why Akshay chose fasting and cold exposure over nootropics and psychedelics • How darkness retreats and solitude sharpen consciousness and intuition • The neuroscience behind pain, trauma, and transformation • Why true freedom lies in facing discomfort—not avoiding it • How to find God in suffering and create meaning from chaos Dave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking.
