Podcasts about Waking

Sharing an episode featuring Dan from a podcast we love, Think Fast, Talk Smart. Whether presenting to millions on live television or talking to just one person, Dan Harris knows that the quality of every interaction depends on the presence you bring to it. Harris is a former national news anchor for ABC News and is now the host of the 10% Happier podcast and author of 10% Happier and Meditation for Fidgety Skeptics. As he knows from experience, there's power in “Waking up to something fundamental, that the mind is out of control, and you don't want to be owned by it.” How do we break the pattern of being controlled by our thoughts? Mindfulness and self-awareness, he says, put “distance” between us and our “thoughts and urges and emotions,” enabling us to connect with ourselves and others with greater consciousness and clarity. In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Harris and host Matt Abrahams discuss how mindfulness can transform our communication, sharing strategies for deeper listening, responding versus reacting, and reflecting what others say back to them. “Relationships are the most important aspect of your happiness,” Harris says. “The quality of those connections goes up when you're less stuck in your own head.” Episode References: Dan Harris: https://www.fastersmarter.io/guests/dan-harris/ Dan's Books: http://fastersmarter.io/10-percent-happier https://fastersmarter.io/meditation-for-fidgety-skeptics https://www.fastersmarter.io/179-communication-happiness-wellbeing-finding-positive-in-negative-emotions/ https://www.fastersmarter.io/180-unlocking-your-future-self-communication-happiness-wellbeing/ https://www.fastersmarter.io/181-why-happiness-is-a-direction-not-a-destination-communication-happiness-wellbeing/ https://www.fastersmarter.io/182-stop-chasing-time-and-start-owning-it-communication-happiness-wellbeing/   Tickets are now on sale for a special live taping of the 10% Happier Podcast with guest Pete Holmes!

During the fierce persecution of Christians by the Persian King Shapur II, Saint Sadoth succeeded the Martyr Symeon (April 17) as Bishop of Seleucia. His name in Persian, Shah-dost, means 'Friend of the King'; but the earthly Shah saw him as no friend, and the holy bishop knew that his days on earth were numbered. One night in a dream, Sadoth saw a ladder reaching from earth to heaven. At the top stood Bishop Symeon, who called joyfully to him: 'Climb up, Sadoth, and do not be afraid! I climbed up yesterday; you will climb up today.' Waking, Sadoth knew that he would soon be called to martyrdom. He immediately set out to encourage his flock and to exhort them to stand firm for Christ in the coming day of persecution.   A few days later the persecutors came in the King's name to arrest the holy Bishop; with him they seized 128 priests, deacons, monks and simple believers. All were held in prison for five months, being brought forth repeatedly and tortured in ways too cruel to describe; but not a single one could be brought to worship the sun. Finally, all were condemned to die by the sword. The 128 martyrs, chained together, sang joyous hymns as they went to the place of execution. They did not cease to sing until the death of the last Martyr. Sadoth himself, however, was taken in chains to the city of Beit Lapat, where he was beheaded a few days later.

If you're in the thick of eating disorder recovery right now and wondering if it's ever going to get easier, this episode is for you. Maybe you had a rough week with food. Maybe you're exhausted from fighting the same battles in your head every single day. Maybe you're wondering if recovery is even worth it because right now it just feels so incredibly hard. In this episode, Lindsey gets real about hard times in recovery and shares a truth that will change how you see your struggle: there are only three possible outcomes when you're going through something hard, and what you choose determines everything about your recovery and your future. This isn't a "just think positive" pep talk. This is truth-telling, no-nonsense guidance about why hard times don't last forever—but only if you refuse to stay stuck in them. If you're ready to stop waiting for recovery to magically get easier and start building the resilience you need to actually get better, this episode will show you how. What You'll Learn: The only 3 possible outcomes when you're in a hard season of recovery (and why understanding this changes everything) Why quitting doesn't actually end the hard time—it just makes it last longer The difference between "it getting better" and "you getting better" (and why only one leads to lasting freedom) How to stop waiting for circumstances to change and start actively participating in your own healing Why hard times only end when you decide they end—not when you feel ready How to make decisions from your healed self instead of your wounded self What it really means to move through hard times instead of staying stuck in them The 3 Outcomes of Hard Times: Outcome #1: You Quit Quitting looks like going back to restriction because it feels safer. It's skipping meals after a bad body image day. It's choosing what's familiar over what will set you free. When you quit moving forward, the hard time doesn't end—it just becomes your new normal. Outcome #2: It Gets Better Sometimes circumstances change and the external situation improves. But if YOU don't change? You're just waiting for the next hard time to come along. You'll always be one comment away from spiraling, one trigger away from old patterns. Outcome #3: You Get Better This is where your power lives. This is where transformation happens. When YOU get better, you learn to nourish your body even when you don't feel deserving. You challenge food rules. You sit with emotions instead of controlling them through food or exercise. You make decisions from your healed self. Key Takeaways: ✨ Hard times don't last forever—but they also don't end just because you want them to. They end when you choose to move through them. ✨ There are only 3 outcomes: you quit, it gets better, or you get better. Only one leads to lasting freedom. ✨ When you quit, the hard time doesn't disappear—it just continues and becomes your normal. ✨ Relying on circumstances to improve keeps you at the mercy of triggers and external situations. ✨ You getting better means actively participating in your own healing, not just hoping things change. ✨ The hard time becomes your identity when you refuse to move forward—it becomes who you are instead of something you're moving through. ✨ Choosing to get better is hard, but staying stuck is harder. Wake up a year from now in the same place or choose to do the work now. Powerful Quotes from This Episode: "Hard times don't last forever. They don't. But only if you refuse to stay stuck in them." "Hard times end when you decide they end. Not when circumstances are perfect. Not when you feel ready. Not when it's easy. They end when you decide to keep moving forward even when it's hard." "When you quit, the hard time doesn't actually end. It just continues. It stretches out. It becomes your new normal." "When YOU get better, it doesn't matter as much what the circumstances are. When YOU get better, you have tools to work through triggers." "You don't have to stay here. You don't have to live in this hard time forever. But you do have to choose to move through it." "The hard time you're in right now? It's not forever. It's not your ending. It's not your identity. It's just a chapter. And you get to write what comes next." Real Talk: This episode delivers no-nonsense truth: the eating disorder wants you to believe you'll always feel this way, but that's a lie. You don't have to stay stuck. But you do have to choose outcome #3—to get better. That means showing up when you don't feel like it, doing the opposite of what the disorder tells you, and trusting the process even when you can't see results yet. What's harder than doing the work? Waking up years from now still fighting the same battles because you never chose to get better. Questions to Ask Yourself: Am I quitting on myself in this moment? Am I waiting for circumstances to change, or am I choosing to change? Am I making decisions from my healed self or my wounded self? What would it look like for ME to get better, not just for IT to get better? Am I refusing to move forward and making this hard time my identity? Ready to Choose Outcome #3? If you're ready to stop staying stuck and start getting better, you don't have to do it alone.

What happens when you realize the life you worked so hard to build doesn't actually feel like your own? In this week's episode of Wild & Waking, I sit down with Kathleen Pitt—The Quantum Psychic—to explore her radical journey from nurse practitioner and mom in Detroit to soul-led mentor, channel, and guide helping women step into their highest alignment.We dive deep into the quantum field—what it is, how it works, and how it allows us to access intuition, future timelines, and miracles beyond our logical mind. Kathleen breaks down how subconscious blocks, old programming, and external validation often hold women back from their true mission, and why listening to your soul's whispers is the most powerful strategy you'll ever need.Together, we explore the intersection of manifestation, time, money, and worth, reframing how we think about abundance and how to expand into overflow without the hustle. Kathleen's perspective is both mystical and practical—rooted in her own lived experience of facing fear, choosing alignment, and witnessing firsthand how the universe rearranges itself in our favor when we honor our soul's knowing.Whether you're curious about energy work, craving a deeper connection to your intuition, or simply wondering if you were made for more, this conversation will expand your perspective and ignite what's possible for you. Tune in for a soul-stirring reminder that your vision already exists, your contracts are already signed, and infinite possibility is available when you're willing to choose alignment over safety.In this episode, we explore:What the quantum field really is, how it works, and why it holds infinite timelines, possibilities, and intuitive guidanceHow to recognize and dissolve subconscious blocks, limiting beliefs, and inherited conditioning that keep us from alignmentThe relationship between intuition, soul alignment, and manifestation—and how to build trust with your future selfWhy time, money, and abundance are energetic resources that expand when you live in alignment with your soul missionPractical tools and perspectives to tap into your intuition, shift your frequency, and call in miracles without hustle or burnoutHow saying yes to the unknown can activate quantum leaps, expanded purpose, and infinite possibility in every area of lifeBe sure to hit subscribe so you never miss the latest episode!Connect with Kathleen:Website: www.thequantumpsychic.comFree Quantum Leap Training + Light Language Activation: thequantumpsychic.com/quantum-leapInstagram: @thequantumpsychicThreads: @thequantumpsychicConnect with Emily:Website: www.EmilyReuschel.comInstagram: @emilyreuschelFacebook: Emily ReuschelLinkedIn: Emily ReuschelJoin my Book Insiders List: Sign up here!Resources and Links:

Cambridge residents being woken by things that go bang in the night. Libby Kirkby-McLeod reports.

What if awakening isn't about rising higher but softening into the body and allowing life to hold you? In this solo episode, I open up about what it really means to wake down into myself, to build capacity, stay present with what is, and lead from embodied truth in a season of deep change, endings, and new beginnings.Over the past year, I've been walking through profound initiation in my somatic and attachment training, in my relationship with God, in my business, and in my own body through the threshold of menopause. This journey has stripped away illusion and invited me into something far more real: presence over proving, discernment over doing, embodiment over striving.In this episode, I share how God became my business partner, how I'm learning to listen to the living language of my body, and why I've chosen to honor my nervous system's truth even when it means being less visible. I also reflect on the shift from Embody Your Higher Purpose to From Insight to Embodiment and how this new foundation is shaping everything I create and share.Inside this episode, I explore:• Waking down to the body as the true path of ascension• Building capacity instead of chasing courage• How somatics reveals old imprints and restores self-trust• The sacred initiation of menopause and the healing power of homeopathy• Living in a personal Year One within a collective Year Nine• The discernment to share less publicly while expanding inwardly• Why connection with self, Source, Earth, and one another is what truly mattersIf you feel called to join me in this season of embodiment, I'd love to welcome you inside Soul Work Synergy, our living community of Gene Keys and somatic practice. And if you're craving a deeper immersion, we have two final spaces open for Soul Essence, our upcoming retreat in Ojai, California, November 13 to 17.Come home to your body. Let presence be enough. Everything else unfolds from there. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Greetings! Today's episode is the first-ever chat with my friend and colleague Andrew Moss regarding the tools that we developed together as I was training to solo-hike across northern England in 2023.This was done as a LinkedIn live back in Winter 2025, and I hear a little bit of nervous energy in my voice as we get rolling in the conversation. I wonder if you'll hear that as well?Today we chat about a tool we call Minding My Own Business. This was, and continues to be even today, something I bring patience for myself with.

“I had a whole list of people that I thought were going to win,” says Joel Mokyr, “And I wasn't on it.” Waking early, he opened up his computer to find out who had been awarded the 2025 prize in economic sciences, and found emails saying 'Congratulations.'

Welcome to Part 2 of our special sleep series, Habit Thrivers!Last week, we explored why sleep matters so deeply — especially during our Me Now years — and how stress, hormones, and even our habits can get in the way.Today, on Episode #173 of the Habit Thrive Podcast, we shift into exploring how we can support it — practically, mindfully, and consistently.Before diving into practical tools, we bust three common sleep myths:Myth #1: We need less sleep as we age — not true! Your body still craves deep rest; it just gets harder to reach.Myth #2: You can "catch up" on sleep over the weekend — tempting, but false. Sleep debt isn't like a bank account.Myth #3: Waking up at night means you've failed — in reality, it's part of your natural sleep cycle.Then, I share 3 powerful ways to support better sleep, starting right now!Begin Your Day with Gratitude: Good sleep starts in the morning.Honor Consistent Sleep & Wake Times: This strengthens your circadian rhythm, supports hormone balance, and helps everything from digestion to mood.Release the Day Before Bed: Whether it's a thought, worry, or event, give it permission to rest so you can, too.As we move through Thanksgiving week here in Canada, let's carry forward the energy of gratitude — not just for better sleep, but for the people, places, and moments that hold us.Sweet dreams, and see you next week.Lorrie xoxoxOn this episode:FREE Sleep Checklist (Use code SleepBliss): Find it hereLoving the show?

St. Isaac's words reveal that communion with God requires remoteness from distraction and a renunciation of whatever disquiets the heart. This is not something reserved for monks alone, though they live it most radically, but it is a law of the Christian life as a whole. For Isaac, the fruits of renunciation are not abstract but very real: tears, compunction, a fountain of sweetness welling up from the heart, light dawning within. These are given not to the distracted soul but to the one who bows like a convict before the Cross, empty-handed and intent upon nothing else. Renunciation is not simply turning away from sin but from every movement that agitates the mind. He calls it a kind of death, both of the outer man in worldly deeds and occupations, and of the inner man in thoughts, passions, and self-will. It is this dying that makes room for the Spirit to raise one into true life. For the monk, this call is lived in visible and total form: silence, enclosure, vigils, fasting, the cutting away of unnecessary speech and activity. Leaving behind the noise of the world, the monk learns to dwell continually before God. For them Isaac's words are direct and literal, for one cannot hold onto worldly cares and at the same time enter into the madness of divine love. Stillness is the path by which grace rushes into the heart. For those living in the world, this teaching does not mean the rejection of responsibilities, but rather the careful discernment of what is indispensable and what is merely disquieting. Isaac himself acknowledges that not all can practice stillness in its fullness, but warns that one should not abandon the path altogether. Instead, there are ways of living the same spirit in daily life: simplicity, which renounces excess possessions, amusements, and chatter that scatter the heart; sobriety of senses, which guards against overindulgence and constant stimulation; interior watchfulness, which makes room for compunction and prayer in the ordinary rhythms of the day; trust in God's providence, which loosens the grip of anxiety over outcomes. For the layperson, renunciation looks like choosing silence over noise, prayer over distraction, mercy over greed, humility over self-exaltation. In these small dyings the heart is opened to the same fountain of sweetness, even if not in the same intensity as in the solitary monk. Isaac reminds us that whoever does not voluntarily withdraw from the causes of the passions will be carried away by them in the end. Whether monk or layperson, if the heart is constantly fed on the world's noise, possessions, and anxieties, it will inevitably be drawn off course. But if one begins to renounce even in small ways, the Spirit quickly comes to give aid, comforting the soul and granting grace. The lesson is clear: every Christian is called to some measure of renunciation, not as loss, but as the doorway to joy and divine consolation. The monk may live it to the depths, but each person in Christ is summoned to taste it in their own measure. --- Text of chat during the group: 00:14:30 jonathan: started trying practising paustinia every Wednesday and Friday.

What if your worth wasn't tied to how much you produce, how many tasks you complete, or how many boxes you check off the list? In this episode of Wild & Waking, I'm diving into a conversation so many women wrestle with: untangling our value from output and reclaiming the power of presence.For centuries, women's gifts—our wisdom, intuition, creativity, and nurturing—were considered sacred. Over time, productivity culture and transactional economics taught us that our worth was only as good as what we could measure, produce, or perform. This conditioning still echoes today, especially for entrepreneurs, leaders, and mothers who feel the pressure to constantly prove themselves in order to be “enough.”I'll share personal stories and coaching insights about what it looks like to be compensated for the intangible: your voice, your energy, your ideas, your leadership. We'll explore the fears that come with putting your gifts out into the world, the stories we tell ourselves about rejection, and how to shift from “selling yourself” to offering transformation.Most importantly, this episode is about remembering the truth: you are inherently worthy. Your magic doesn't come from output—it comes from your presence, your wisdom, and your unique way of being in the world. Whether you're navigating entrepreneurship, career, motherhood, or relationships, this conversation will remind you that the world needs you, not just your productivity.In this episode, I explore:The historical shift that devalued women's gifts during the agricultural and industrial revolutions—and how that conditioning still affects us today.The fears women face when putting intangible gifts—wisdom, presence, intuition, leadership—into the world.How to reframe selling and compensation as an exchange of energy and transformation, not “selling yourself.”Tangible practices for embodying worth without output, including rest, play, and naming old stories out loud.Why presence, voice, and lived experience often create more transformation than checklists, deliverables, or productivity hacks.How to align pricing, offers, and compensation with your truth—so your business or career feels abundant, soul-led, and sustainable.Be sure to hit subscribe so you never miss the latest episode!Connect with Emily:Website: www.EmilyReuschel.comInstagram: @emilyreuschelFacebook: Emily ReuschelLinkedIn: Emily ReuschelJoin my Book Insiders List: Sign up here!Resources and Links:Episode 156 | Fun Because: How to Recalibrate the Realm of Possibility + Collapse Timelines by Dismantling Hustle and Reclaiming Joy with Kari the Fun CoachThe Coven is a six-month circle for women unraveling old stories, remembering their truth, reclaiming their voice, and rising together. ✨ Exclusive for Wild & Waking listeners: use code WILD for $111 off enrollment

In this special solo episode, Melissa shares a deeply personal reflection about connecting with the Creator in a new and powerful way, and how her journey with spirituality has continued to evolve, from her Catholic upbringing to the profound experience of going to Jewish temple for the first time with Noah and his family. Melissa explores what it means to be a true beam of light in the world, and how guilt, shame, judgment, and gossip can weigh us down and dim that light. Through honest self-reflection, she encourages us to release what no longer serves us and give ourselves permission to step into our greatness. You'll hear Melissa speak candidly about her own “soul's correction” and the importance of waking up to the signs around us, reminders from the universe that call us to live more consciously, more lovingly, and more fully aligned with who we're meant to be.

Greetings! It's time for another chat with my friend and colleague Andrew Moss regarding the tools that we developed together as I was training to solo-hike across northern England in 2023.Today you'll hear about a tool we call Periods. Not commas. Back when Andrew was my coach and I was training to cross northern England on foot, this was the first tool that my brain was able to take in. It's been interesting to see where and how the tool has shown up in both of our lives.You can look forward to a whole month worth of Tools Chats – “lost episodes”! We recorded them out over winter and spring 2025, and I've been really looking forward to the opportunity to get them to you.Hope you enjoy!* Would you like to be part of our final Tools Chat coming up in November 2025? Email me here and we'll get you in the room!* Consider subscribing to this newsletter so that it shows up in your inbox, instead of you having to go search for it :)About this Series…It's really a podcast within a podcast!In these “Waking Up: The Tools” conversations Andrew and I discuss the essential tools we developed that helped me grow into the person who hiked all by myself across northern England in 2023… After needing a wheelchair to go more than a few steps in 2011.We've called this series Waking up: The Tools because they're featured in my award-winning memoir, Waking Up.See you soon!

Adoration means praise, but also expresses how we must walk in reverent fear of God. Join us as we move further into what it looks like to follow Jesus seven days a week. A “holy fear” must be part of the equation.

This is a great time to build the cake, or maybe even just put your shopping list together. Today, we look at the unlimited potential of aerobic capacity and why it's at the core of making you a better long course athlete. We talk about Mark Allen's quest to beat Dave Scott and how patience allowed him to set the IM run course record. We get into using this time to reduce your stress and level your cortisol to be a healthier person. We look at how your body adapts to training and how we actually get faster and stronger. Get faster in a more meaningful (and functional) way. The goal right now is to train in a way so that you feel good tomorrow . . . and the next day. Be patient and the speed will come. Topics: We all have options Sitting in no man's land FOMO on both sides of the aisle Build the aerobic reservoir High intensity can wait Is periodization dead? Roller coaster highs and lows are bad for the body Using TIME to reduce stress Aerobic work is maximum quality Keep showing up but “don't try” The poison is in the dose DNF rate going up? Stress Flexibility Fatigue resistance Don't eat into your ability to push threshold Running and swimming as intuitive strengths Your training plan as a menu Mark Allen - 7 months of no intensity for the win How your body adapts and gets stronger Consistency going out of your watt range Waking up the next day able to do it again Peaks and valleys are stressful Get faster in a meaningful way The goal is to feel good tomorrow Don't feel good just to dig another hole   Mike Tarrolly - mike@c26triathlon.com   Robbie Bruce - robbie@c26triathlon.com

Welcome back to the Create Podcast. Just in time for the fall season, I am joined by Pam Grossman, a writer, curator, teacher, and practicing witch whose work beautifully bridges creativity, culture, and magic. Pam is the host of The Witch Wave podcast (called “the Terry Gross of witches” by Vulture), the author of Waking the Witch: Reflections on Women, Magic, and Power, and co-editor of Taschen's Witchcraft volume in the Library of Esoterica series. Her essays have appeared in The New York Times, The Atlantic, TIME, and more. She has also organized exhibitions such as Language of the Birds: Occult and Art at NYU and spoken at institutions including MoMA and Columbia University. Her brand-new book, Magic Maker: The Enchanted Path to Creativity (Penguin Life & Hay House UK, October 14, 2025), is a guide to connecting with the creative force through ritual, history, and practice. It explores how artists and visionaries such as Hilma af Klint, David Bowie, Octavia E. Butler, and Leonora Carrington have used magic as part of their creative process, and how you can do the same in your own life. In This Episode, We Discuss Pam's creative roots and how she began merging her artistic and magical practices Misconceptions about witchcraft and how the archetype of the witch has evolved How Magic Maker links art and magic, showing that creativity itself can be a spiritual practice Practical rituals to protect your studio time and invite inspiration, from lighting candles to leaving offerings or simply asking for guidance The idea of “low frequency” and “high frequency” desires in art and business, and how to balance material needs with higher intentions Pam's experiences speaking at institutions like MoMA and casting a love spell on stage at Carnegie Hall with Jinkx Monsoon The role of research, fascination, and intuition when writing a book Artists who inspire her including Leonora Carrington, Remedios Varo, Hilma af Klint, Max Ernst, and Kurt Seligmann Resources and Mentions Books by Pam Grossman Magic Maker: The Enchanted Path to Creativity (Penguin Life & Hay House UK, 2025) → Pre-order here Waking the Witch: Reflections on Women, Magic, and Power (Simon & Schuster, 2019) What Is a Witch (Tin Can Forest Press, 2016) Witchcraft (Taschen's Library of Esoterica series, co-edited with Jessica Hundley, 2020) Podcast The Witch Wave – Pam's long-running podcast on art, culture, and magic Exhibitions and Projects Language of the Birds: Occult and Art (NYU, 2016) → languageofthebirds.org Art of the Occult by S.

My third place, the St Kilda PCYC, is closing its doors after more than 75 years, and it hit me harder than I expected. That gym wasn’t just a space to train, it was where strangers became mates, where effort felt like belonging, and where so many versions of me have walked in and out over the past decade and a half. Waking up to that news felt like grief – the same kind of ache I’ve felt losing people and pets I loved. Bobby and I dig into what third places really mean – those spots beyond home and work that anchor us, give us identity, and connect us to something bigger than ourselves. We talk about why losing them feels like losing part of who we are, why care and community should never be treated as side notes, and how the walls that hold us become woven into our story. If you’ve ever had a place that felt like home the moment you walked in, or lost one that left a hole in your chest, this conversation will hit home. It’s about belonging, grief, and the reminder that people and places shape us far more than we realise.

In this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes". Said Benjamin Franklin. What are death and taxes? Arguably, losses. What is trauma and tragedy? I submit they are losses. And I feel we generally go about our lives, day in and day out, trying to avoid losses. Hoping "that doesn't happen to me." And yet, it's going to happen. We will have a financial fall. We will have a once beloved relationship end. We will have a car wreck or house fire or disease. Almost 100% of people will agree it's wise to have money in savings, just in case. Why don't we have emotional understanding and strength in savings, for the loss that will come? My guest is Colin Campbell. On March 14, 2023 Colin and his wife were driving their car, both in the front seats. In the back were their two teenagers, Ruby & Hart. A woman who was driving drunk went through an intersection doing 90 miles per hour and never saw them or braked. She hit the car right at the passenger doors. And Ruby and Hart died that day, while Colin and his wife were able to walk away from the crash. What followed is the dramatic amount of grief you'd likely expect. Colin says, “I always believed, deep in my heart, that my life would just keep getting better and better.” Isn't that all of us? Waking each day hoping and really expecting things to be ok, and we won't get the dreaded call or have the accident ourselves. Now I sure don't want to go about expecting tragedy. But, I have recently gone through the loss of my marriage and family home, two things I literally thought were impossible. I also have nine kids and multiple grandkids. I've lost my arrogance to think “that won't happen to me” and my odds are plenty high that I'll experience more significant loss. What can I be doing now, to be prepared? This is what Colin and I discuss in depth. Colin Campbell is a writer and director for theater and film. He teaches screenwriting at Chapman University and theater at California State Polytechnic University. Campbell's highly anticipated solo performance piece titled Grief, will be performed in Los Angeles and New York City this year. His book that I got ahold of is called Finding the Words: Working Through Profound Loss with Hope and Purpose. Before we get started, let me give you this quote from Colin, “A profound loss is when you lose someone, and I'd add, “or something,” that you feel is entwined intrinsically with your identity. In  other words you define yourself partly in terms of this other person or thing.” Sign up for your $1/month trial period at shopify.com/kevin Go to shipstation.com and use code KEVIN to start your free trial.

To connect with others, you have to get out of your own head.Whether presenting to millions on live television or talking to just one person, Dan Harris knows that the quality of every interaction depends on the presence you bring to it.Harris is a former national news anchor for ABC News and is now the host of the 10% Happier podcast and author of 10% Happier and Meditation for Fidgety Skeptics. As he knows from experience, there's power in “Waking up to something fundamental, that the mind is out of control, and you don't want to be owned by it.” How do we break the pattern of being controlled by our thoughts? Mindfulness and self-awareness, he says, put “distance” between us and our “thoughts and urges and emotions,” enabling us to connect with ourselves and others with greater consciousness and clarity.In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Harris and host Matt Abrahams discuss how mindfulness can transform our communication, sharing strategies for deeper listening, responding versus reacting, and reflecting what others say back to them. “Relationships are the most important aspect of your happiness,” Harris says. The quality of those connections goes up when “you're “less stuck in your own head.”Episode Reference Links:Dan HarrisDan's Books: 10% Happier / Meditation for Fidgety Skeptics Ep.179 Finding Positive in Negative Emotions: Communication, Happiness & Wellbeing Ep.180 Unlocking Your Future Self: Communication, Happiness & Wellbeing Ep.181 Why Happiness is a Direction, Not a Destination: Communication, Happiness & Wellbeing Ep.182 Stop Chasing Time and Start Owning It: Communication, Happiness & Wellbeing  Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (01:51) - On-Air Panic Attack (02:59) - Managing Communication Anxiety (04:01) - Nervousness Before Live Audiences (05:48) - Meditation Misconceptions (09:36) - Responding vs. Reacting (12:07) - Mindfulness & Productivity (15:11) - Lessons from Interviewing (17:19) - The Final Three Question (25:14) - Conclusion ********Thank you to our sponsors.  These partnerships support the ongoing production of the podcast, allowing us to bring it to you at no cost.Strawberry.me.

If we desire to follow Jesus with all our hearts, there is a level of action we must take. Peter will emphasize this as he sends this letter to young churches across Asia Minor. There is much for us to learn from this letter today.

The truth about Islam's origins is darker than most realize. Long before Mohammed, long before Islam even existed, the Ka'ba in Mecca and its black stone were part of pagan worship dedicated to false gods. Scholars and historical sources confirm that this shrine was first devoted to Hubal—a Nabatean deity tied directly to Baal, the same demonic principality the Israelites struggled against in the Old Testament. What Muslims today call “Allah” is not new at all—it's a repackaging of the same ancient deception. From Baal to Hubal to Allah, the thread is clear: behind every false god stands the same demonic force. The Bible warns us in 1 Corinthians 10 and throughout Scripture that idols are not just stone or tradition—they are sacrifices to demons. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 

Waking up befuddled, Fitz finds himself in a whirlwind of preparation for Lord Golden and his trip to Galeton to retrieve Prince Dutiful. Fitz, as Tom Badgerlock, takes care of some chores before they depart.

Have you ever felt the tension between following the “logical path” you were taught to take and the deeper pull of your intuition? In this episode of Wild & Waking, I sit down with Hay House author and spiritual business coach Liz Roberta to explore how we can break free from burnout, trust our inner wisdom, and build lives and businesses that are truly in tune with our soul. Liz's book, Living in Tune: 21 Questions to Activate Your Intuition and Find Your Life Purpose, has guided thousands of women back to themselves — and in this conversation, she brings that same clarity, honesty, and encouragement.Together, we dive into the eight clair senses, manifestation, and the power of subconscious reprogramming to unlock your soul gifts.

In this raw, honest episode, we dive into the internal battles busy adults fight every single day: • Waking up before the world to get a workout in • Skipping comfort food for a long-term goal • Choosing identity over instant gratification • Feeling guilt for taking time away from the family to take care of yourself This isn't about six-pack abs or hustle culture. This is about who you're becoming when no one is watching. We're unpacking the silent war behind every habit change, every meal prepped, every early alarm.

Have you ever had a powerful breakthrough — an awakening, an expansion, a deep inner revelation — only to feel frustrated when it doesn't immediately translate into your daily life? In this solo episode of Wild & Waking, Emily unpacks the truth that integration always lags behind revelation. Growth isn't instant. Transformation takes time to embody. And the space between knowing and becoming is where much of the real work happens.Emily shares from her own journey of unraveling old narratives, questioning inherited systems, and diving into deeper layers of personal and spiritual growth. She reflects on the tension of living between worlds — one foot in everyday life, board meetings, and school pickup lines, while the other is immersed in awakening, spiritual exploration, and big-picture questions about who we are and how we want to live. This “in-between” can feel isolating, even disorienting, but it's also where belonging, truth, and deeper self-connection are forged.Together, we explore the messy middle of transformation: the lag between breakthrough moments and lived embodiment, the grief that comes when old relationships no longer align, and the deep human ache to be fully seen and understood. Emily reminds us that feeling “crazy” or “too much” during this process is not a flaw but a hallmark of waking up to yourself. Awakening and integration don't happen on the same timeline — and that's okay.If you're feeling caught between who you've always been and who you're becoming… if you're hungry for belonging in the midst of your awakening… if you're realizing that embodying your breakthroughs takes more patience than you thought — this episode will feel like a deep exhale.In this episode, I explore:Why integration lags behind revelation — and what it means when your breakthroughs, awakenings, and expansions take time to embodyThe experience of living between worlds: navigating everyday life while undergoing deep spiritual growth and personal transformationThe grief, disorientation, and isolation that often accompanies spiritual awakening when old relationships or spaces no longer alignThe deep human ache for belonging, being fully seen, and understood while walking the path of growthThe Wild & Waking framework — unraveling, remembering, reclamation, and rise — and how these cyclical phases shape every transformation journeyWhy safe spaces and soul-aligned communities like The Coven are essential for women navigating expansion, awakening, and integrationHow breakthroughs often lead to unexpected challenges — and why these moments become the hallmarks of your growth storyIf this conversation spoke to you, don't keep it to yourself. Share this episode on your socials or pass it along to a friend who's navigating her own breakthroughs, awakenings, or seasons of living between worlds. These are the conversations that remind us we're not alone — and together, we create the belonging we're all craving.Connect with Emily:Website: www.EmilyReuschel.comInstagram: @emilyreuschelFacebook: Emily ReuschelLinkedIn: Emily ReuschelJoin my Book Insiders List: Sign up...

Today, Michael speaks with Anita Moorjani. Anita is a renowned author and spiritual speaker known for her transformative journey beyond the brink of death. While living in Hong Kong, Anita battled end-stage cancer before experiencing a remarkable near-death experience, or NDE, that shifted her perspective on life. Her bestselling memoir, "Dying to Be Me," chronicles her profound journey and miraculous healing. Anita travels the world sharing her insights on self-love, consciousness, and the interconnectedness of all things. Her teachings empower others to embody the highest version of themselves and live vibrant, authentic lives. Anita's new book, “Sensitive is the New Strong,” is out now. Conversation highlights include:  -Anita's near-death experience: the freedom from pain, the absence of fear, and the deep clarity that revealed how her life choices shaped her illness -Her turbulent relationship with her father and the weight of cultural traditions that led to a life-changing act of defiance that shaped her path and healing -Reuniting with her father on the other side in unconditional love, seeing glimpses of her future mission, and facing the decision to return to physical life -Waking up from her coma, against all odds, accurately recalling conversations she “shouldn't” have heard, and beginning her stunning physical recovery -How a simple online post about her NDE caught the attention of Dr. Jeffrey Long—and then Wayne Dyer—setting Anita's public mission into motion -How illness often begins at the soul level, why fear fuels disease, and how choosing joy, love, and purpose can reverse one's life trajectory -Shifting from “remission” to “remember my mission,” Anita reframes healing and explains why letting go—rather than holding onto resentment—sets you free -Why true transformation comes from communion with the soul, not just treating symptoms, and how this deeper work sustains physical and spiritual wellness Finally, Michael leads a guided meditation to open the heart and mind to the ever-present blessings of the Universe.

Laura Hayton, Head of Business Development North at Transicon and a passionate advocate for the power of physical fitness in boosting sales performance, is with us on the show this week. Laura opens up about her personal journey, revealing how strength training helped her overcome anxiety, build resilience, and unlock a new level of professional success—all while balancing the demands of her career and being a single mother to neurodivergent twins. We explore the direct connections between physical well-being and high performance in sales, and discuss the practical steps sales professionals can take to manage stress, increase motivation, and sustain their energy—all grounded in Laura's hard-earned experience and actionable advice. Whether you're struggling to find time for self-care and looking to overcome burnout, this episode is packed with valuable strategies and inspiration to help you become the best version of yourself, both in and out of the office. Outline of This Episode [00:00] Fitness fuels professional success. [03:09] Connection between fitness and business performance. [04:45] Morning strength training as the key to daily success. [06:52] Fitness helps you keep those plates from spinning. [08:37] Consistency over intensity. [10:58] Self-care isn't selfish: strategies for avoiding negative burnout. [12:43] How to make fitness a habit. How Strength Training, Mindset, and Self-Care Fuel Sales Success For Laura, fitness wasn't always a priority. Like many, she found herself overwhelmed by anxiety, self-doubt, and the stressors of daily life—especially while raising neurodivergent twins during the uncertainty of the COVID-19 pandemic. But what began as a coping mechanism quickly turned into a transformative routine. Not only did it help her manage anxiety and self-esteem, it shifted her mindset entirely—replacing self-limiting beliefs with confidence and resilience. The results transcended the gym. Laura began embracing opportunities she once found intimidating, from public speaking to taking on challenging roles. For Laura, the focus and mental strength gained through fitness directly translated into her professional achievements. Morning Movement: Laying the Groundwork for a Winning Day A major takeaway from Laura's practice is her dedication to early morning workouts. Waking up at 5 a.m. and training by 5:30, she carves out sacred personal time before life's demands kick in. This ritual isn't just about breaking a sweat—it's a space to think creatively, set intentions, and cultivate a sense of control. “On the days that I do it, I feel in control, confident, and really ready… If I'm not doing it, my patience runs thin, and it always feels like my day just doesn't go to plan,” Laura explains. For sales professionals whose schedules can be unpredictable, this kind of intentionality can be essential for maintaining focus and motivation throughout the day. Managing Stress, Motivation, and Performance Sales is a high-pressure field, and managing stress is critical. Fitness, for Laura, is the cornerstone that keeps those plates spinning. It's a stress outlet that also boosts mood, sharpens focus, and builds the momentum that carries into her work and home life. On those days when stress feels overwhelming, exercise acts as a “reset button,” enabling her to show up as her best self. Most sales professionals know they should prioritize health, but common roadblocks get in the way. Laura highlights three challenges: lack of time, inconsistency, and the wrong mindset. Her guidance is to:  Make Time: Treat fitness as a non-negotiable meeting. Even with a busy schedule, if it matters, you will find a way. Stay Consistent: Don't overdo it at the start and risk burnout. Start small, maintain the habit, and make it enjoyable. Shift Mindset: If possible, hire a personal trainer for accountability and fun. Don't view exercise as punishment, but as an opportunity for growth. The Do's and Don'ts of Fitness for Salespeople Laura distills her wisdom into actionable tips: Do: Protect your workout time—make it a top priority. Find joy in your training—pick activities you enjoy. Get professional support for accountability and learning. Don't: Compare your progress to others; your journey is unique. Pursue extreme, unsustainable routines. Separate health from career success—they are intrinsically linked. Self-Care Is a Smart Sales Strategy Laura's story is proof positive that investing in fitness doesn't just change your body; it elevates your mindset and professional capabilities. Fitness doesn't have to be about chasing perfection. It's about finding a routine that builds confidence, keeps energy high, and helps you show up as the best version of yourself. For sales professionals aiming to reach new heights, perhaps the missing piece isn't just a new strategy—it's stronger self-care and a commitment to physical wellbeing. Self-care isn't selfish. It's essential.

Have you ever found yourself awake at 3 AM with racing thoughts, questioning your worth, or feeling waves of frustration, exhaustion, or irritability that don't quite make sense? You're not alone. I dive into the energetic and physical shifts so many of us—especially women in perimenopause and menopause—are experiencing right now. From low libido to hormonal imbalances to that inner nudge for more pause and less hustle, I share why our bodies are speaking so loudly and what we can do to truly listen.I also open up about the ways multitasking, people pleasing, and our addiction to social media and news are draining our energy and disconnecting us from joy, intimacy, and our natural feminine flow. Together, we'll explore how to shift out of burnout, reconnect with our intuition, and reclaim vitality through slowing down, honoring boundaries, and returning to nature's medicine. If you've been feeling anxious, disconnected, or simply ready for a reset, this conversation will remind you that you're not broken—your body is guiding you back to balance, freedom, and truth.IN THIS EPISODE:(0:00) Waking up at 3 am and what it really means for your mind and body(0:52) Honest road trip talk about feelings, stress, and energy shifts(2:25) How modern life impacts women's health, hormones, and vitality(3:04) Breaking free from the masculine hustle and embracing feminine flow(6:04) How social media and technology drain energy, libido, and joy(16:36) The healing power of nature and disconnecting from the matrix(19:00) Choosing self-love, boundaries, and true emotional healing(19:36) Why magnesium is essential for women's wellness and balance(20:51) Stay inspired and connected: join my text community
