Podcasts about Walk Away

In this episode, we dive into the phenomenon known as The Walkaway Wife Syndrome—aka the moment a wife mentally packs her bags long before she ever touches a suitcase.  We'll talk about how she didn't suddenly snap (shocking, we know), and why husbands often miss the mile-high stack of warning signs.  Most importantly, we'll walk through what couples can do before someone heads for the mental exit door—because emotional disconnection doesn't have to be inevitable.  Grab your coffee. This episode is here to help you avoid becoming a marital cautionary tale.

Uncle Si helps his best friend, Philip McMillan, baptize the sister he never knew he had, and Philip credits Jase and Phil with changing the trajectory of not just his own life but generations of his family. Si gets real about what happens when people keep putting off the decision to follow Jesus, and the guys dig into what the Bible says about trusting God even in moments of fear or anxiety. Plus, Si reveals what happened when he dared to preach to an inmate who was not interested in anything he had to say.

Send us a textWhy do high school coaches keep showing up when the hours are brutal, the stipend is small, and the critiques are loud? We open the door to the dugout and talk honestly about purpose, sacrifice, and the quiet wins that outlast any trophy. Ken shares his ongoing battle with ulcerative colitis and multiple surgeries, describing what it means to keep serving through pain and why the podcast became a bridge back to the game after disability retirement.We walk through the real day-to-day: opening cages before sunrise, prepping fields on sweltering Saturdays, and making lineup decisions that weigh the dreams of an entire roster. Parents hear a candid view of how coaches see all eighteen kids, not just one, and why choices are made with development, accountability, and team roles in mind. Players get a direct message about standards, discipline, and the kind of pressure that forges character. The big theme is clear: baseball is the classroom where resilience, teamwork, and ownership are taught in real time.Along the way, we honor mentors who shaped us, the families who hold the line at home, and the former players who call years later to say thank you. The conversation is raw and grounded—less about schemes and more about stewardship. If you care about youth sports, coaching culture, or how athletic programs build future fathers, husbands, and leaders, this story will resonate. Subscribe, share with a coach or parent who needs this perspective, and leave a review so we can keep elevating voices that make the game better.Support the show Follow: Twitter | Instagram @Athlete1Podcast Website - https://www.athlete1.net Sponsor: The Netting Professionals https://www.nettingpros.com

What does it really take for women in the workplace to know when it is time to stay, speak up, or walk away entirely? In this Mastering Excellence episode, Nikki Rausch sits down with certified coach and facilitator Laurie Nichols for a powerful conversation about clarity, confidence, and the emotional intelligence required to make intentional choices in your career. With more than thirty years of experience in both the investment world and the coaching space, Laurie brings a grounded, heart centered perspective to the challenges women face in professional environments. She and Nikki explore how values, self trust, and honest self reflection help women navigate crossroads moments without guilt or second guessing. Laurie shares the story of her own transition from finance to coaching, explaining how burnout and misalignment often show up long before we recognize them. She introduces the idea of the rub, those early signals that something is off in your workplace, your client relationships, or even your day to day interactions. These signs might appear as frustration, exhaustion, or constant self doubt. Laurie talks through the difference between temporary irritation and a deeper mismatch that takes a toll on your physical, emotional, and professional wellbeing. Nikki and Laurie also explore why women often feel pressure to tolerate unhealthy environments and how cultural expectations make it difficult to speak up or set boundaries. Listeners will learn practical tools to build self awareness, including values checks, emotional audits, and Laurie's idea of the blinking yellow light, a cue that you need to slow down and pay attention before bigger problems develop. Laurie explains how discernment, not impulsivity, becomes your strongest guide in deciding whether to stay and have a constructive conversation or leave in order to reclaim your health and integrity. She also offers strategies for approaching tough conversations through a values based lens, using clarity and compassion rather than fear or defensiveness. The episode closes with Laurie's current focus on empowering women to thrive at work while honoring their own wellbeing. She champions the principle of win win or no deal, which encourages women to pursue relationships and opportunities that respect their worth. With her blend of wisdom and practicality, Laurie gives listeners a roadmap for navigating career decisions with confidence and intention. This is an essential conversation for anyone interested in strengthening leadership skills, building healthier workplace dynamics, and supporting the success of women in the workplace.

Week four of the Ending Well series lands right at the halfway mark. This episode is a look back over a three-year road (starting in 2022) of how God helped me fight inflammation, feel like myself again, and regain my "glow." This is not a weight-loss talk, not a quick-fix list, and not medical advice. It's a redemption story about healing from the inside out — spiritually, emotionally, and physically. "Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be in health, just as your soul prospers." — 3 John 1:2 Key Themes Redemption doesn't just cover salvation; it keeps working through sanctification and healing. Inflammation wasn't just a food problem — it was also a soul and nervous system problem. Real health change is slow, layered, and personal. Your timeline will not look like mine. The glow came as a byproduct of feeling better and living freer, not chasing beauty. Important Disclaimers This episode is descriptive, not prescriptive. Not medical advice. Always talk with a qualified professional for your situation. Do not try to do everything at once. This was a year of foundations plus a total three-year process. One percent better beats perfect overnight. The Story: How the Dominoes Fell 1. August 2022: Stepping Back From Fear-Driven "Crunchy" Culture I was drowning in rules, guilt, and constant fear of what might be harming me. The anxiety and striving became more toxic than the ingredients I was avoiding. First domino: I quit trying to do it all perfectly and started living with grace, budget reality, and peace. Lowering my standards for myself lowered my inflammation. "Come to me, all who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest." — Matthew 11:28 2. October 2022: A Major Boundary With a Toxic Relationship I set a serious boundary with someone whose presence fueled self-hatred. Went no contact for about six months. The inner tape of shame and criticism began to quiet. I learned that giving up self-hatred is profoundly anti-inflammatory. Recommended resource mentioned: When to Walk Away by Gary Thomas (plus podcast interview) "Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course of your life." — Proverbs 4:23 3. Early 2023: Changing How I Worked Out I stopped high-intensity workouts that were spiking cortisol daily. Switched to lifting heavy and slow, more functional strength training. Worked out less, recovered more. Energy improved, inflammation eased, confidence rose. Current favorite: Nourish Move Love workouts on YouTube. Big takeaway: exercise is a gift, not punishment. 4. February to May 2023: Going Gluten-Free and Cutting Back on Alcohol Grain Brain by Dr. David Perlmutter was a turning point. I tried going gluten-free (cold turkey, not ideal but it worked). Brain fog cleared, bloat dropped, inflammation noticeably reduced. Cutting alcohol alongside gluten made a huge difference. I don't need to understand every mechanism to honor what clearly helps my body. Reminder: everyone has a "thing" — gluten, dairy, sugar, alcohol, stress. Find yours with grace. 5. August 2023: Getting Off SSRIs After 15 Years A massive milestone with a full story in episode 267. For me, SSRIs were not helping inflammation or overall vitality anymore. The drop in facial inflammation from August to December was dramatic. I'm not shaming anyone on SSRIs — I was on them a long time. This was my path. "It is for freedom that Christ has set us free." — Galatians 5:1 What Actually Healed Me This part matters: the glow wasn't mainly from products. Lowering impossible expectations Creating boundaries Learning to like myself Getting out of fight-or-flight Moving my body in a gentler way Removing gluten and minimizing alcohol Walking in obedience even when it felt backwards Healing was spiritual and emotional first, physical second. "Be transformed by the renewing of your mind." — Romans 12:2 Simple "Glow Back" Skin Habits These are the practical, easy wins that helped the outside catch up to the inside. Dermaplaning at home Removes dead skin and peach fuzz. Skin care and makeup apply better. Big difference in glow and smoothness. Learn carefully through YouTube tutorials and use a quality razor. Stopping skin picking Picking was aggravating redness and irritation. I prayed about it and replaced the habit. New habit: brush my hair when the urge hits. Asking God for help in small things counts. Sponsor Spotlight: PreBorn A free ultrasound can double a mother's chance of choosing life.

Takeaways to Sit With If you're overwhelmed, start with one domino. God often heals from the root, not just the symptom. Your body listens to your beliefs. Peace, obedience, and self-kindness are deeply practical health tools. The goal isn't prettier; it's freer, healthier, and more whole. Reflective Questions What is one area where fear or perfectionism is inflaming your life? Who or what might need a boundary so you can heal? What small change feels like the next right step, not the whole staircase? How would your health shift if you treated yourself like someone God deeply loves? Closing Encouragement This glow-back story is really a "come back to life" story. It wasn't a sprint; it was obedience in baby steps. If you're in the thick of it today, don't despise the slow fade. God redeems years, bodies, minds, and hearts — and He's patient in the process. "He restores my soul." — Psalm 23:3

Pool Pros text questions hereIn this week's episode of Insurance Interludes, host Steve Sherwood teams up once again with Pat Grignon, Vice President of the California Pool Association (CPA), to tackle a real-world scenario hitting every service tech's nightmare list:A failing shell. A leaking pool. Conflicting opinions. And YOU stuck in the middle.Steve brings the audience behind the scenes of his own route — a client with a structural crack that keeps reopening, “experts” claiming they can fix it, and the big question:“How do I protect myself while still trying to do good business?”Pat breaks down exactly how pool pros can keep themselves legally covered, insured, and sane when structural failures, hillside homes, cracked shells, and desperate customers collide.What You'll Learn in This Episode

Shops want faster workflows, fewer bottlenecks, and equipment that keeps technicians moving. On this episode of What's Treading, we set out to learn how well the new Road Force WalkAway tire balancer supports those goals during a visit to Hunter Engineering's headquarters. We wanted to see how much time a modern balancer can actually save and what that means for daily productivity inside a busy tire bay.Hunter's David Henry kicked things off by showing the biggest change: automatic inflation built directly into the balancer. Technicians can clamp the wheel, hook on the hose, and drop the hood, and the machine handles the rest. Henry explained that this feature frees up 45 to 90 seconds, which technicians can use to mount the next tire, prep weights, grab a tire from the rack, or keep another bay moving.The WalkAway still performs full Road Force diagnostics, measures spring rate, identifies stiff spots, and uses camera-based wheel measurement. But the team redesigned the hood and roller assembly to shrink the footprint by 4.5 inches to reclaim some space.Engineering Manager Nate Brower explained how the machine calculates time savings through pressure readings, volume calculations, and flow rate. It gives technicians a countdown that shows how long they have to complete other tasks. In testing, he said, pairing the Road Force WalkAway with Hunter's automated tire changers cut a four-tire job from 34 minutes to 19, which delivered a 44% time savings.The WalkAway also integrates with HunterNet, which lets multi-store operations track usage, roller drops, inflation habits, and technician performance.

In this episode, I'm talking about resentment—the kind that sneaks in when we keep saying yes to things we don't want to do. I share a story about my son Pascal, a pile of deer meat, and how one small “dirty yes” turned into a full-blown meltdown. (Spoiler: it wasn't really about the meat.) We'll talk about the difference between a clean yes and a dirty yes, why women struggle with boundaries, and how people-pleasing leads to quiet rage. Whether it's your partner, your kids, or your family during the holidays, this episode will help you spot resentment before it boils over—and teach you how to protect your energy without guilt.Timestamps:(00:00:32) "Deer Meat Trimming and Resentment Reflection"(00:04:22) Calm Down and Walk Away to Reflect(00:07:05) Bangs Dilemma: A Haircare Reflection(00:10:05) Clear Communication for Healthy Relationship Boundaries(00:14:27) Boundary Setting for Parenting Success

In this episode, I sit down for the third time with one of my all-time favorite authors, Gary Thomas, whose books have radically shaped my faith and perspective on life, relationships, and spiritual growth. From When to Walk Away to Sacred Marriage and Sacred Pathways, Gary's writing has helped countless believers understand what it means to live a life rooted in truth and grace. His newest book, The Life You Were Reborn to Live, takes that even deeper—calling out the spiritual lies that keep us buried beneath the surface of God's best. These lies are subtle, familiar, and often sound like wisdom—but they quietly rob us of peace, purpose, and abundance. In this conversation, Gary and I unpack three of the most powerful lies from his book that hit me straight in the heart (and probably will for you, too). We talk about: Dismantling Restlessness — learning to live in peace, not panic. Dismantling the Comfort Lie — seeing affliction as God's loving pruning, not punishment. Dismantling Complacent Ignorance — rekindling a hunger for wisdom that transforms how we think and live. Gary helps us see how many of these lies have even slipped into church culture—convincing us to chase comfort, control, or comparison instead of the freedom and renewal Christ offers. This episode will help you identify where the enemy has kept you "underground" and remind you that you were reborn to live in the light. It's the perfect conversation to help us end the year well—tearing down what's false and walking boldly into the truth.

Justin Brennan watched his family go from “riches to rags,” then rebuilt with cash-flow discipline, learning the hard rules of leverage, investor trust, and timing. In this episode, Justin Brennan breaks down how he moved into a model unit to push a 121-unit across the finish line, why he ate an $800,000 loss to protect investors, and how that decision unlocked an off-market 80-unit in San Diego.

Send us a textBill Caskey follows up on last week's deep dive by sharing insights from coaching a high-performing salesperson who's hitting the limits of process-driven selling. He reveals why even the best sales process isn't enough—you must show up authentically and have the courage to disqualify prospects who aren't truly committed. Through a compelling coaching story, Caskey explains how being grounded in who you are allows you to spot the 20% that's missing in a conversation and walk away from deals that would compromise your integrity, ultimately increasing your close rate with the right clients.Download your complimentary copy of the 12 Bold Moves audiobook at 12BoldMoves.com/Audiobook

Introducing the newest thing in higher (and we really mean higher — like look UP) education: The Flying Pig Academy. A dream of The Village Square (with support from Florida Humanities) for many years, it's finally aloft. The division in American society is big and seems impossible at times to address.  The Flying Pig Academy is kind of an insider's how to. This Flying Pig Episode: Politics are a mess, the American electorate is fed up. So what do we do about it? Way too many of us doom scroll through the latest political news from the comfort of our couch in the suburbs. Rightly disturbed that younger generations of Americans don't understand civics, way too many of us aren't practicing civics that would have direct impact on the communities, states and nation where we live. We've become political hobbyists and it's fueling the demand for performance art in our elected leaders. Mentioned: Eitan Hersh on the dangers of political hobbyism. Miss the first Flying Pig Academy Episode? Find it here. The second in the series, after "Location, Location, Location" is an homage to our intellectual hero (and lucky for us, our friend and colleague) Dr. Jonathan Haidt who - literally - wrote the book for Pigs With Big Dreams. The Righteous Mind: Why Good People Are Divided by Politics and Religion.

Not every relationship can—or should—be salvaged. In this solo episode, Corey shares a personal story and outlines five unmistakable red flags that tell you it's time to step back to protect your peace. Sometimes, staying in the conversation means knowing when to step away. In this raw and introspective solo episode, host Corey Nathan opens up about a deeply personal encounter that pushed him to confront a painful question: When is it time to “unfriend” someone—really unfriend them? With vulnerability and clarity, Corey unpacks a recent experience with someone who crossed multiple emotional and ideological lines. What begins as a story about a text thread gone wrong unfolds into a thoughtful reflection on the emotional cost of dialogue, the importance of mutual respect, and the red lines we all must define for ourselves if we're to stay sane and whole in polarized times. If you've ever wrestled with staying true to your values while trying to build bridges, this episode will resonate deeply.

Burnout when you have adult ADHD is complex. It's not as simple as social media makes it look. Sure, sometimes people walk away from a stressful job or career. But let's be honest….that's not always possible. You've probably heard the phrase, “People don't leave jobs, they leave people.” Well, that's not always true. People do leave jobs. But what happens when you can't leave? What if you're running a business you own? Or working a job you depend on financially? Or caring for a loved one, a responsibility that's not optional or short-term? These are situations you can't just walk away from. You have to find a way to make it work. One of the biggest drivers of burnout is the feeling that your situation isn't going to change anytime soon. So in today's episode, we're talking about realistic, practical strategies for navigating burnout when you're stuck in a situation that's not easily changed. If you take away just one thing from today's episode, let it be this: You have to become a problem solver. Because when your circumstances can't change, your approach has to. **Do you want to work with Dave one-on-one? Go to www.overcomingdistractions.com and book an introductory Zoom chat.

This is a fan fav episode. If you're a human, you've most likely been in relationships and situations that spark regret, shame and confusion on what to do and who to be in the moment. So often, people spend time trying to please everyone around them. The way you dress, the way you style your hair, where you sit in the meeting, all of these decisions are so easily influenced by a want and desire to be given approval from the right people. But what about you? What do you want? How often are you spending time apologizing for feeling, and even better how often are you downplaying that you even feel anything? Najwa Zebian is an activist, poet and celebrated author. She joins Lisa for a second time to discuss how she came to radical self acceptance, and share the startling fact that we may actually be gaslighting ourselves when we diminish and disregard the pain we feel when vulnerability has been betrayed in the hands of the wrong person.  Najwa's Questions for Self-Acceptance: 1. Who are you? 2. Why do I believe what I believe? 3. Why do I live my life the way that I do? 4. Why am I scared of X, Y and Z? 5. Why are you so afraid of feeling pain?  “When you build your home and other people you give them the power to make as homeless” -Najwa Zebian  SHOW NOTES:  Gaslighting Yourself | Why diminishing your painful experience lessens your self-worth [0:40] Homeless | How we build homes in others and end up homeless when they walk away [6:37] Toxic Savior | Trying to save someone doesn't mean you're owed anything, that's toxic [9:47] Proof of Love | Examining the real cost of having someone love versus what you receive [16:03] Self-Aware | The need to be aware of your triggers and the filter you've created for life [19:56] Self-Acceptance | Self-acceptance versus indifference and know who you're accepting [25:59] Identity Crisis | Najwa shares the personal crisis that made her question her identity [33:59] Being Hurt | Why you need to acknowledge the hurt and know healing in your power [39:30] Vulnerability | How to be open to vulnerability after being hurt even in protection mode [45:24] Unwinding Triggers | Finding the origin of your triggers and allow yourself to feel it [51:56] Self-Judgement | Not blaming or judging yourself for allowing things to happen [55:36]  Original air date: 10-27-2021 Learn more about your ad choices.
