Podcasts about Wholeness

Communion is a time to remember what Jesus has done and how his love fills every part of us. The bread and cup remind us that his sacrifice brings real peace, forgiveness, and the kind of satisfaction nothing else can.

The Body and Communion – Wholeness in Flesh and Relationship Wholeness Series, Episode 4 Episode Summary: What if your body wasn't just a tool for work or a source of shame, but a sanctuary—a vessel of memory, worship, and communion?   In this episode, we explore the profound connection between our physical bodies and our spiritual lives. From a grandfather's Sunday jacket to St. Francis calling his body “Brother Ass,” we rediscover the body not as an obstacle to holiness but as a companion on the journey. Drawing from Aquinas, John Paul II, and modern psychology, this talk weaves theology, discipline, and delight into a new vision of embodied wholeness. Whether it's fasting or feasting, movement or rest, this episode offers a vision of the body as a living altar, capable of carrying burdens, expressing love, and becoming holy through small, daily acts. We don't need perfect bodies. We need present ones—offered, disciplined, and led gently toward communion with God, others, and ourselves.   Questions for Prayer, Journaling, and Reflection: On the Body as Memory and Offering: What memories—joyful or painful—does your body carry? In what ways have you used your body as an offering in love? How can you begin to see your body as a kind of "sacrament"? On “Brother Ass”: How do you treat your body: as a racehorse, a machine, or a faithful donkey? What might change if you viewed your body with affectionate realism rather than frustration or pride? In what ways does your body carry Christ to others? On Food and Fasting: When do you eat from hunger, and when from habit or emotion? What small, daily food-related disciplines could help train your soul? How might you make meals more sacramental and less rushed? On Movement and Strength: How do you move your body each day? Is it with purpose, joy, or obligation? What physical discipline helps you show up for others with energy and readiness? How might your next workout or walk be offered as a prayer? On Dance and Expression: When was the last time you let your body express something wordless—through dance, art, or play? What emotions might you need to move through rather than just talk about? How could rhythm, music, and movement restore wholeness in your life? On Sleep and Rest: Do you see rest as laziness, or as worship and trust? What rhythms of silence or sleep do you need to reclaim your peace? Where is God calling you to surrender the illusion of control and rest in His love?   Let this episode be your invitation to wholeness not just in thought or feeling—but in flesh and bone, sweat and stillness, hunger and dance.   Subscribe to the podcast. Share it with someone who needs to be reminded: your body is not the problem. It might just be the path.

You've hit the wall. You've circled the same fears, same failures, same question: Now what? This week, Craig Cooney joins me to map out the 7 Stages of Life Transition—that spiritual, emotional, relational journey we all face when momentum crashes into burnout. He's walked past every threshold: loss, disillusionment, plateau, crisis. And he understands what happens when you blitz through “surviving” and find… something new on the other side. In this episode, Craig names the pain of transition: the loneliness of midsize dreams, the temptation to spin in place, the hidden grief behind “I'm tired,” and the silent desperation of burnout nobody talks about. And he exposes the breakthrough waiting when you refuse to stay stuck at the wall. If you're in the pause, the plateau, the painful “In-Between”—this episode will help you understand what stage you're in, give language to the hardship you're living, and show you the transformation lurking on the other side.

In today's episode, I share encouragement from God's Word for the days when you're overwhelmed, frustrated, or ashamed—whether it's your health, motherhood, marriage, or finances. Drawing inspiration from Dr. Henry Cloud's Changes That Heal, we talk about how perfectionism can keep us stuck and how pride can be hidden in our shame. Instead of expecting yourself to get everything right, let's anchor ourselves in truth: Trust in the Lord with all your heart (Proverbs 3:5–6) Rejoice always, pray without ceasing (1 Thessalonians 5:16–18) Know that God works all things together for good (Romans 8:28) God can use even your broken moments to create something beautiful—yes, even in your health journey. He doesn't expect perfection, but He does invite you to trust Him.   Holistically Healthy Woman: 4 Steps to Move Away from Modern Medicine for Christians www.herholistichealing.com/free   Free Community www.facebook.com/groups/herholistichealing   Book (Discover God's Health Wisdom: Exposing 8 Common Myths That Keep You Sick) www.herholistichealing.com/book   Holistic Health Coaching www.herholistichealing.com/coaching   Website www.herholistichealing.com   E-mail hello@herholistichealing.com   This content is not meant to be personal medical advice.

This episode considers how much of the current language around nature therapy can actually distance some people, and focuses on the need for better ways to talk about earth care and connection to the earth for men in particular. Jason Lyle shares with Forrest about Adventures in Recovery, an organization in the state of Georgia that uses wilderness experience to facilitate healing and personal growth for men. He discusses the profound impact of wilderness therapy on mental health, the importance of reconnecting with the body and nature, and the evolving landscape of spirituality in modern society. The conversation emphasizes practical strategies for individuals to immerse themselves in nature, and highlights the significance of community connection recovery processes. Adventures in Recovery (soon to be rebranded as AIR Georgia)Freeology Podcast (soon to be rebranded as Sacred Grit podcast)Jason coaches Forrest about cold water immersion TakeawaysJason shares his deep connection to nature and its impact on his life.Adventures in Recovery focuses on healing through nature and community.The importance of personal experiences in shaping one's purpose.Nature immersion helps individuals reconnect with their bodies and emotions.Spirituality can be practical and rooted in everyday decisions.The body and mind connection is crucial for personal growth.Community support plays a vital role in recovery processes.Nature teaches resilience and adaptability in challenging situations.Practical strategies for reconnecting with nature include immersion and foraging.The future of spiritual communities may focus on personal experiences rather than traditional structures. Keywordsnature, healing, recovery, spirituality, wilderness therapy, personal growth, men's mental health, adventure, community, connection, nature-based therapy, redneck culture, adoption trauma, cold water immersion  Find us on our website: Earthkeepers Support the Earthkeepers podcast Check out the Ecological Disciple

IN THIS EPISODE: Why did Jesus heal people with disabilities and what does that mean for us today? In this episode, Tyler, Maron, and Barry unpack Matthew 9:27–34, where Jesus heals two blind men in a culture that saw disability as shameful. But the story raises deeper questions: Why do healing stories cause discomfort in the modern disability community? If healing is tied to faith, what does that imply for people today who aren't healed? Why does Jesus sometimes mention forgiving sins and sometimes not? Does physical healing imply something was broken before and how does that affect our theology of wholeness? We also explore the 3 R's of application from the sermon: Remember those the world has forgotten, Reject the values of our broken world, and Receive the mercy of our Savior. Watch as we dig into ancient shame culture, contractual theology, and how the church can faithfully preach healing without unintentionally reinforcing harmful assumptions. ⏰ TIMESTAMPS: 0:09 - What's New with the Gang 00:44 - Pacers NBA Finals Loss & Family Reactions 15:05 - Transition to Sermon Discussion 20:00 - Disability, Healing, and Ancient Context 27:27 - Faith, Healing, and Discomfort 32:22 - Theology of Healing & Faith 36:36 - Prophecy, Inclusion, and New Creation 42:59 - Jesus, Context, and Social Inclusion 46:21 - Healing, Wholeness, and Social Models 52:24 - Remembering the Forgotten & Mercy 56:36 - Rejecting Broken World Values 01:03:09 - Receiving Mercy & Contractual Theology 01:06:21 - Where Do We Go Next?

Romans 5:1-5 & John 16:12-15Today, as we celebrate Trinity Sunday, Pastor Greg invites us to consider the Trinity as God, relating personally as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and that we are made in the image of self-giving, unified love.

In this episode of Hunger for Wholeness, Sr. Ilia Delio speaks with independent scholar Jared Morningstar about the transformative potential of science-informed spirituality. Drawing from Islamic philosophy, including the thought of Muhammad Iqbal, Jared explores how process thought might bridge religious divides and invite a deeper interfaith convergence—one grounded in creativity, ecological awareness, and scientific integrity.Together, Sr. Ilia and Jared reflect on the long but fractured relationship between science and religion. Why have these traditions, which once collaborated, become estranged? What would it take to move beyond entrenched patriarchal and tribal patterns—particularly those that continue to shape the experiences of women within religious life?Later in the episode, the conversation turns to the enduring role of tradition and the search for meaning in a complex, pluralistic world.ABOUT JARED MORNINGSTAR"Almost everything worthwhile which has accumulated in any religious tradition was, in its own time, a striking ingression of fresh creativity—a creativity, of course, in contact with the self-same wellspring of inspiration at the root of the founding moments of the tradition in question.”Jared Morningstar is an independent scholar with academic interests in philosophy of religion, Islamic studies, comparative religion, metamodern spirituality, and interfaith dialogue. His work in these areas seeks to offer robust responses to issues of inter-religious conflict, contemporary nihilism, and the "meaning crisis," among other things. Jared graduated from Gustavus Adolphus College in 2018 with degrees in religion and Scandinavian studies and currently works for the Center for Process Studies and the Psychedelic Medicine Association. At the Center for Christogenesis we are in the midst of our June fundraiser.

In today's gathering, we focused on praying for the miracle of healing from trauma. Pastor Hurmon gave us five specific miracles to pray for. We can often struggle to name exactly what happened to us, so the first prayer is for “Courage to Name My Wound Without Shame”. Trauma doesn't just hurt us—it shapes us. It can show up in many obvious and covertly destructive ways in our lives. Our second prayer is for “Insight to See the Patterns”. We heal best not alone, but in community. Our third prayer is for “A Heart That Moves Toward Community”. When we feel weighed down by our trauma, we can feel hopeless, but God can turn our wounds into witness. We should pray for “A Testimony in the Making”. Healing from trauma provides peace. We pray for “The Miracle of Peace'. Bring all your requests from God and he will listen to your prayers. Come back on Wednesday for a prayer and worship night!

Sometimes, we need to use a different word in order to let Grace in. In this meditation, I explore 'presence' as another name for Self, Oneness, and Reality—so we can deepen our somatic experience of the undivided now. Whether you're seeking peace, clarity, healing, or a sense of belonging, this inquiry invites you to rediscover Wholeness - not as something to achieve, but as something that we already ARE. Even pain becomes a doorway back into inclusion when we realize what holds it is inherently complete and loving. I don't want to add more words to our conceptual understandings, but challenge the assumptions we often make on this path, which can become what limits us from a deeper homecoming. Much love and gratitude for listening today.

Living in Divine Communion: The Heart of Spiritual Health In this episode, we explore the foundation of spiritual health—not as a religious add-on, but as the very core of what it means to be fully human. Drawing from Scripture, the theology of John Paul II and Benedict XVI, and the ache of the modern soul, we reflect on how our deepest wounds and longings are not problems to fix but invitations into divine communion.   We examine what happens when we try to create ourselves apart from God—and how returning to our true identity as beloved sons and daughters brings clarity, peace, and wholeness. Through stories, reflection, and practical wisdom, this episode invites you to abide in Christ, reorder your desires, and live from the inner room where God dwells.   Spiritual wholeness isn't about perfection—it's about presence. Not about doing more—but about dwelling more deeply in the love of the One who made you.   At the end of the episode, you'll find 10 journaling prompts and reflection questions to help you live out what you've heard. Let this be more than a listen—let it be a turning point.   “Do I approach prayer as a relationship or a task?” Reflect on your experience of prayer. Is it a checklist, or an encounter with Someone who loves you? “What do I most deeply desire?” Trace your strongest longings—are they leading you closer to God or away from Him? “Where am I trying to create or prove myself rather than receive my identity from God?” Explore the pressure you may feel to be self-made. What would it look like to rest in being God's beloved? “Do I live as though I am chosen and loved by God—or as though I must earn love and prove worth?” Consider the emotional tone of your daily life—performance-driven or grace-rooted? “What spiritual lie do I hear most often—and what truth does God speak instead?” Identify one recurring falsehood (e.g., “I am unlovable” or “God is distant”) and counter it with Scripture. “Where am I off course by ‘just one degree' in my spiritual life?” Is there a small misalignment—like distraction, a neglected habit, or spiritual drift—that could, over time, distance you from your true destination? “What do I do when I feel disillusioned or disappointed? Write honestly about times you've been let down or hurt. Where can healing begin? “How do I abide in Christ throughout my day?” Make a list of practices or reminders that help you stay rooted in Him—from Scripture, silence, music, to sacrament. “Where do I resist God's love or hide from it?” Reflect on places of shame, fear, or control. What would it mean to allow God into those places? “In my life right now, where am I being called to surrender, not try harder?” Ask: Is this a moment for discipline—or a moment for deeper trust?  

Healing and Wholeness: The 18-Inch Journey from Head to Heart “The glory of God is man fully alive.” —St. Irenaeus “God does not love some ideal version of you. He loves you—with your particular history, wounds, and desires.” This episode takes you on what may be the most important journey of your life: the 18 inches from the head to the heart. Through the story of Blaise Pascal's mystical night of fire, the gentle wisdom of Harvey's Elwood P. Dowd, and the wisdom of the Church, we explore what it means to become an integrated person—one who lives not in fragmentation, but in communion. We are not just minds or spirits—we are embodied, emotional, historical persons. And while trauma, generational wounds, and spiritual lies may have fractured our inner life, God is drawing us back into wholeness. This is not a journey of perfection, but of integration—of learning to live fully alive. You'll hear about: The role of the family in shaping our early spiritual imagination The wounds that distort identity and the lies we carry into adulthood How emotional maturity, spiritual direction, and community lead us to healing How God re-parents us through His Word, His Church, and His sacraments This episode is an invitation to courageously face the inner story you've believed—and to let God write a new one with you. Reflection & Journaling Questions for Prayer   Where in my life do I live more from my head than from my heart? Where do I hide behind intelligence, control, or performance rather than love, vulnerability, and trust? Have I made the 18-inch journey from being right to being real? What would it mean to let go of needing to prove myself and instead seek communion? What were the spoken or unspoken rules in my family growing up? (“Don't feel,” “Be perfect,” “Never be weak,” etc.) What emotions were welcomed in my childhood? What emotions were avoided or punished? What role did I play in my family system? (Hero, invisible one, peacekeeper, rebel…) How does that still shape me today? What is one lie I have believed about myself? (“I am only loved if…”; “I must always… to be safe.”) Ask: Where did I learn this? What is the truth that God wants to speak there? What pattern have I inherited from my family or past that I want to bring into the light of Christ? Pray: “Lord, show me where You were when I felt unseen.” Which of life's tasks—work, friendship, or love—do I tend to avoid? Ask: Where do I need more courage to live generously and not self-protect? Do I see emotional strength as a way to protect myself or to give myself away? What would it mean to see my strength as a gift for others? What private logic or internal script still shapes how I see myself, God, and others? Bring one of those to prayer. Ask: “Jesus, walk with me through the rooms of my childhood. What do You want to show me?”  

Discover the power of grounded spirituality and how it holds the key to authentic living and personal liberation.

This is your invitation to move beyond performative practices and reconnect with what truly matters—your authentic self. Explore practical advice for integrating spiritual principles into everyday life, from navigating uncertainty to fostering deeper connections with others. Whether it's setting boundaries, doing shadow work, or practicing compassion over judgment, this episode offers tools to help you thrive in a chaotic world. If you're ready for a mindset shift, empowerment, and a more embodied approach to spirituality, this is a conversation you need to hear!

LESSON 169By Grace I Live. By Grace I Am Released.Grace is an aspect of the Love of God which is most like the state prevailing in the unity of truth. It is the world's most lofty aspiration, for it leads beyond the world entirely. It is past learning, yet the goal of learning, for grace cannot come until the mind prepares itself for true acceptance. Grace becomes inevitable instantly in those who have prepared a table where it can be gently laid and willingly received; an altar clean and holy for the gift.Grace is acceptance of the Love of God within a world of seeming hate and fear. By grace alone the hate and fear are gone, for grace presents a state so opposite to everything the world contains, that those whose minds are lighted by the gift of grace can not believe the world of fear is real.Grace is not learned. The final step must go beyond all learning. Grace is not the goal this course aspires to attain. Yet we prepare for grace in that an open mind can hear the Call to waken. It is not shut tight against God's Voice. It has become aware that there are things it does not know, and thus is ready to accept a state completely different from experience with which it is familiarly at home.We have perhaps appeared to contradict our statement that the revelation of the Father and the Son as one has been already set. But we have also said the mind determines when that time will be, and has determined it. And yet we urge you to bear witness to the Word of God to hasten the experience of truth, and speed its advent into every mind that recognizes truth's effects on you.Oneness is simply the idea God is. And in His Being, He encompasses all things. No mind holds anything but Him. We say “God is,” and then we cease to speak, for in that knowledge words are meaningless. There are no lips to speak them, and no part of mind sufficiently distinct to feel that it is now aware of something not itself. It has united with its Source. And like its Source Itself, it merely is.We cannot speak nor write nor even think of this at all. It comes to every mind when total recognition that its will is God's has been completely given and received completely. It returns the mind into the endless present, where the past and future cannot be conceived. It lies beyond salvation; past all thought of time, forgiveness and the holy face of Christ. The Son of God has merely disappeared into his Father, as his Father has in him. The world has never been at all. Eternity remains a constant state.This is beyond experience we try to hasten. Yet forgiveness, taught and learned, brings with it the experiences which bear witness that the time the mind itself determined to abandon all but this is now at hand. We do not hasten it, in that what you will offer was concealed from Him Who teaches what forgiveness means.All learning was already in His Mind, accomplished and complete. He recognized all that time holds, and gave it to all minds that each one might determine, from a point where time was ended, when it is released to revelation and eternity. We have repeated several times before that you but make a journey that is done.For oneness must be here. Whatever time the mind has set for revelation is entirely irrelevant to what must be a constant state, forever as it always was; forever to remain as it is now. We merely take the part assigned long since, and fully recognized as perfectly fulfilled by Him Who wrote salvation's script in His Creator's Name, and in the Name of His Creator's Son.There is no need to further clarify what no one in the world can understand. When revelation of your oneness comes, it will be known and fully understood. Now we have work to do, for those in time can speak of things beyond, and listen to words which explain what is to come is past already. Yet what meaning can the words convey to those who count the hours still, and rise and work and go to sleep by them?Suffice it, then, that you have work to do to play your part. The ending must remain obscure to you until your part is done. It does not matter. For your part is still what all the rest depends on. As you take the role assigned to you, salvation comes a little nearer each uncertain heart that does not beat as yet in tune with God.Forgiveness is the central theme that runs throughout salvation, holding all its parts in meaningful relationships, the course it runs directed and its outcome sure. And now we ask for grace, the final gift salvation can bestow. Experience that grace provides will end in time, for grace foreshadows Heaven, yet does not replace the thought of time but for a little while.The interval suffices. It is here that miracles are laid; to be returned by you from holy instants you receive, through grace in your experience, to all who see the light that lingers in your face. What is the face of Christ but his who went a moment into timelessness, and brought a clear reflection of the unity he felt an instant back to bless the world? How could you finally attain to it forever, while a part of you remains outside, unknowing, unawakened, and in need of you as witness to the truth?Be grateful to return, as you were glad to go an instant, and accept the gifts that grace provided you. You carry them back to yourself. And revelation stands not far behind. Its coming is ensured. We ask for grace, and for experience that comes from grace. We welcome the release it offers everyone. We do not ask for the unaskable. We do not look beyond what grace can give. For this we can give in the grace that has been given us.Our learning goal today does not exceed this prayer. Yet in the world, what could be more than what we ask this day of Him Who gives the grace we ask, as it was given Him?By grace I live. By grace I am released.By grace I give. By grace I will release.- Jesus Christ in ACIM

You've been sold a lie: that authenticity means spilling everything and bleeding on everyone. That your pain validates your platform and makes you more mature. This week, Levi Lusko joins us to dismantle that fallacy. He's faced the brutal shock of grief and the hidden ruins of unsurfaced trauma. He's walked through the disillusionment of midlife irrelevance. And he's learned the hard truth: healing doesn't include weaponizing your pain, and authenticity doesn't mean emotional anarchy. In this episode, Levi pulls back the curtain on what happens when grief blindsides you, why trauma must be surfaced before it surfaces on others, and how midlife loss of relevance can become the birthplace of greater purpose. We talk about the toxicity of “authenticity culture”—why sharing pain doesn't always lead to healing, and why containment, resilience, and sacred boundaries are essential. If you've ever bared your struggle and felt worse… if you're deep in grief or navigating a midlife low… this conversation will give you clarity, grace, and a restoration plan.

This week I have an inspiring conversation with Kevin Hutchison, a newly published author and wonderful person I worked with in my author program, Nonfiction Book School. We talk about his unique path from pastor to marketing professional, with a journey from self-rejecting into self-love. Kevin was inspired to share his story through his upcoming book, Alchemy from Ashes: Bringing My Shattered Faith, Mental Health, and Sexuality into Wholeness. We also explore the roadblocks he encountered during the writing process and how he was able to move through them.Writing and publishing a book alone is difficult, and creative work can be a slow, nonlinear process. We discuss how Kevin surrounded himself with key people who helped him bring his book to life and how their contributions impacted the final product.Kevin Hutchison is a marketing professional and former pastor, whose talent and expertise have been leveraged in both profit and not-for-profit organizations. He has worked for national and global agencies, held tenure in communications with a Midwestern mega-church, and has served on boards such as the American Marketing Association and RESPECT, an education-and theater-based anti-bullying nonprofit.Learn more about Kevin:WebsiteLinkedInBook recommendation: Greenlights, by Mathew McConaugheyFollow me on:Instagram @stacyennisFacebook @stacyenniscreativeLinkedInYouTube @stacyennisauthorTo submit a question, email hello@stacyennis.com or visit http://stacyennis.com/contact and fill out the form on the page.

This week we moved to Part 2 of The Process: Tell the Truth to God, Self, and Others. After we feel our feelings, we must speak them honestly—because unspoken emotions become impairments like resentment or toxic shame. Eric reminded us that our feelings are true to us, and telling the truth about them is essential to living from the heart. Scripture is full of examples—like David in the Psalms—of raw honesty before God. We explored how even hard conversations, like a recent moment around racial unity, can become places of healing when we engage with courage and humility. Shame isn't a sign of failure—it's an invitation to recognize our limits and open ourselves to grace. The more we do this together, the more we live like the body of Christ. This week, take the risk to share what's real—with God and someone else. The Process continues!

In this latest episode of the Holikrey Podcast, we unravel the deeper truths of healing... moving beyond spiritual performance and into embodied presence. Through personal stories, energetic insights, and grounded science, we explore how bypassing emotions, over-identifying with “love and light,” and avoiding discomfort can actually stall our growth. You'll learn why healing is not about fixing what's broken but about remembering your wholeness, feeling safe in your body, and aligning with your Core Essence.Tune in now to learn:0:41 – 1:15 - How she supports restless souls back into alignment1:54 – 2:31 - Why this episode matters – truth, not judgment 2:36 – 2:49 - Misconceptions around healing as fixing what's broken2:49 – 3:17 - Personal experience: burnout and disease as signs3:17 – 3:39 - Science catching up with energetic and emotional causes3:39 – 4:05 - Housekeeping: take what resonates, leave what doesn't4:05 – 4:28 - Calling you back into your body and truth4:28 – 5:14 - Signs of spiritual commitment but still feeling stuck5:14 – 5:32 - What is spiritual bypassing?5:32 – 6:38 - Examples of bypassing: love & light, over-affirming, avoiding grief6:38 – 7:02 - Insight: running from the parts of ourselves we reject7:02 – 7:30 - You can't fake alignment – metaphor of the gas tank7:30 – 7:55 - Why bypassing doesn't lead to transformation7:55 – 8:44 - Signs you might be bypassing: guilt, shame, over-spiritualizing8:44 – 9:14 - "The Body Keeps the Score" – trauma lives in the body9:14 – 10:03 - "The Emotion Code" – trapped emotions = incomplete energy10:03 – 10:15 - The danger of skipping somatic and emotional work10:15 – 10:49 - Nervous system support and product recommendation: Magic Mind10:49 – 11:19 - Healing is messy, cyclical, and deeply human11:19 – 12:08 - Spiritual beings in human bodies – we hold score12:08 – 12:34 - Alchemizing pain, not transcending it12:34 – 13:03 - Embodied healing: coherence, not conflict13:03 – 13:27 - Embodying joy, boundaries, and spiritual-human harmony13:27 – 13:50 - Core Essence Program tools: somatics, regulation, clearing13:50 – 14:22 - When the universe asks: are you ready to choose differently?14:22 – 14:42 - Invitation to go deeper, not escape pain14:42 – 15:12 - Integration as wisdom, compassion, and power15:12 – 15:24 - You don't need to be more spiritual – you need to feel safe15:24 – 15:46 - Invitation to explore Core Essence Program + Magic Mind discount15:46 – 16:14 - Healing is remembering what was always wholeYou'll also get a glimpse into the Core Essence Program, and hear how the universe might be nudging you toward deeper self-responsibility, not more performance.

On this episode: A new Samson website updates and an opportunity for IT volunteers. Nate takes his ear muffs off. Aaron shares what makes Jesus like you more. This week, Nate and Aaron interview Molly LaCroix. Molly is a therapist and author from Bend, Oregon. She helps Nate, and Aaron apply the principles of I.F.S (internal family systems) to the lives of Samson and David (from the Bible). Discussion includes the potential that both Samson and David were sex addicts with details that aren't frequently considered. Molly explores that emotions are as physically rooted as a broken leg. She explains why sin doesn't feel like running a cheese grater over our chest but has pleasure, adrenaline, and sometimes power. She also discuses a cohort for minister workers that is happening in 2026, and how you can be involved.Links: Molly LaCroixBooks: Journey To Shalom: Finding Healing, Wholeness, and Freedom in Sacred StoriesSept. 12-14, 2025 Austrian Retreat Nov 7-9, 2025 Santa Fe, NM Samson Summit Nov 7-9, 2025 The Wild & Sacred Journey, Womens RetreatSponsor: Life Works CounselingIf you have thoughts or questions and you'd like the guys to address in upcoming episodes or suggestions for future guests, please drop a note to piratemonkpodcast@gmail.com.

Today, I interview Elisa Negroni, who grew up silenced—not just by family secrets and trauma, but by a culture that told her to stay small, stay quiet, and never question authority.Raised in Puerto Rico and Jamaica, Elisa learned early that speaking up came with consequences. A teacher once told her she wasn't “college material,” and a cruel stepmother punished her for simply existing.The silence followed her into adulthood. For years, Elisa avoided the spotlight, convinced she had nothing to say. But deep down, she longed to be seen. Everything changed when she discovered Speaking Circles and began her journey inward—toward healing, self-trust, and the voice she thought she'd lost forever.Today, Elisa is a coach who helps others drop their masks, rewrite old stories, and reclaim their power to speak. In this powerful episode, she shares what it really takes to break free from silence and stand in your truth.Her story is a testament to what's possible when you stop hiding and start honoring who you are.__________________Elisa Negroni is a certified coach, facilitator, and storyteller who helps people break free from silence and reconnect with their true voice. Trained by Radiant Coaches Academy, Speaking Circles International, and in the Peace Circle process, she brings both deep training and lived experience to every session.With 30+ years in community relations, personal development, and transformational coaching, Elisa blends professional insight with her own powerful journey—from growing up silenced to guiding others through their healing.She helps clients uncover the stories that have kept them hidden and speak from a place of truth, presence, and self-compassion.__________________Find Elisa here:https://www.elisanegroni.com/https://relationalpresence.com/Free Gift: https://power2speak.myflodesk.com/d7gv7aooheSupport the showI'm Dr. Doreen Downing and I help people find their voice so they can speak without fear.

This week on the Glow Up, Gyrl podcast, we're joined by Nic Nierras, founder of The Wholistic Lifestyle, who opens up about the journey from career success to soul alignment.

After navigating a painful divorce and personal struggles, she discovered the power of Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT), a method that would completely change her life—and her mission. Now, Nic helps women release emotional blocks, restore balance, and reconnect with the version of themselves they were always meant to be. ✨ In this episode, we explore: The difference between success and fulfillment Why healing is a heart, mind, and soul journey How RTT can help break free from limiting beliefs How Nic is helping others glow from the inside out Connect with Nic:

#82: [Inside the Mind] Steven Yellin: Get Out of Swing Prison and Stop Violating the Rule Bank for an Effective, Repeatable Swing In this powerful and enlightening episode of The Scratch Golfer's Mindset Podcast, I'm joined by Steven Yellin, creator of the Fluid Motion Factor and one of the leading voices in understanding the neuroscience of performance in golf.  Together, we dive deep into the mind-body connection, the neurophysiological conditions required for a fluid golf swing, and why most golfers unknowingly sabotage their own performance—especially when it matters most. In today's episode, you'll learn: Why your prefrontal cortex (the CEO of your brain) needs to go offline during the swing What it really means to have a quiet mind before pulling the trigger How to check your “threshold of wholeness” with a simple shoulder test The truth about consistency and how to stop recreating what you already own What the “rules of the bank” are—and how violating them leads to inconsistent performance How to train like a pro by focusing on quality of space, not quantity of reps How the depth of your thoughts determines access to the body's deepest intelligence Whether you're an elite amateur or a weekend warrior, this episode will radically reshape how you think about practice, performance, and pressure. Steven's insights are a masterclass in mastering the mind-body connection and unlocking the swing you already have—on command. Get your pencils ready and start listening.  P.S. Curious to learn more about the results my clients are experiencing and what they say about working with me? Read more here. More About Steven Steve Yellin is a renowned golf instructor, author, and the creator of the Fluid Motion Factor, a revolutionary approach to optimizing performance in golf and other sports. With a background in both competitive golf and deep studies into the mechanics of peak performance, Yellin's work bridges the gap between technical training and the ability to access one's best swing under pressure. His Fluid Motion Factor system has helped elite golfers, including PGA and LPGA Tour players, unlock their natural ability by eliminating interference in their mind-body connection. Instead of relying on mechanical swing thoughts, Yellin teaches golfers how to tap into a fluid state of motion, leading to greater consistency and confidence on the course.

You're not broken—you're just violating the rules of the bank. Wholeness is a threshold state of mind where motion flows without interference. You don't need new swing thoughts—you need a new relationship with the ones you already have. Practicing the swing isn't as powerful as practicing access to your best swings. Key Quotes: You're not recreating the swing—you're trying to access what you already own. When the prefrontal cortex goes offline, the swing goes online. Do less. The most powerful message I can give any golfer. It's not what you're thinking. It's how you're thinking it. Fear is the killer in a golf swing.

LESSON 163There Is No Death. The Son Of God Is Free.Death is a thought that takes on many forms, often unrecognized. It may appear as sadness, fear, anxiety or doubt; as anger, faithlessness and lack of trust; concern for bodies, envy, and all forms in which the wish to be as you are not may come to tempt you. All such thoughts are but reflections of the worshipping of death as savior and as giver of release.Embodiment of fear, the host of sin, god of the guilty and the lord of all illusions and deceptions, does the thought of death seem mighty. For it seems to hold all living things within its withered hand; all hopes and wishes in its blighting grasp; all goals perceived but in its sightless eyes. The frail, the helpless and the sick bow down before its image, thinking it alone is real, inevitable, worthy of their trust. For it alone will surely come.All things but death are seen to be unsure, too quickly lost however hard to gain, uncertain in their outcome, apt to fail the hopes they once engendered, and to leave the taste of dust and ashes in their wake, in place of aspirations and of dreams. But death is counted on. For it will come with certain footsteps when the time has come for its arrival. It will never fail to take all life as hostage to itself.Would you bow down to idols such as this? Here is the strength and might of God Himself perceived within an idol made of dust. Here is the opposite of God proclaimed as lord of all creation, stronger than God's Will for life, the endlessness of love and Heaven's perfect, changeless constancy. Here is the Will of Father and of Son defeated finally, and laid to rest beneath the headstone death has placed upon the body of the holy Son of God.Unholy in defeat, he has become what death would have him be. His epitaph, which death itself has written, gives no name to him, for he has passed to dust. It says but this: “Here lies a witness God is dead.” And this it writes again and still again, while all the while its worshippers agree, and kneeling down with foreheads to the ground, they whisper fearfully that it is so.It is impossible to worship death in any form, and still select a few you would not cherish and would yet avoid, while still believing in the rest. For death is total. Either all things die, or else they live and cannot die. No compromise is possible. For here again we see an obvious position, which we must accept if we be sane; what contradicts one thought entirely can not be true, unless its opposite is proven false.The idea of the death of God is so preposterous that even the insane have difficulty in believing it. For it implies that God was once alive and somehow perished; killed, apparently, by those who did not want Him to survive. Their stronger will could triumph over His, and so eternal life gave way to death. And with the Father died the Son as well.Death's worshippers may be afraid. And yet, can thoughts like these be fearful? If they saw that it is only this which they believe, they would be instantly released. And you will show them this today. There is no death, and we renounce it now in every form, for their salvation and our own as well. God made not death. Whatever form it takes must therefore be illusion. This the stand we take today. And it is given us to look past death, and see the life beyond.Our Father, bless our eyes today. We are Your messengers, and we would look upon the glorious reflection of Your Love which shines in everything. We live and move in You alone. We are not separate from Your eternal life. There is no death, for death is not Your Will. And we abide where You have placed us, in the life we share with You and with all living things, to be like You and part of You forever. We accept Your Thoughts as ours, and our will is one with Yours eternally. Amen.- Jesus Christ in ACIM

You've been told addiction is a disease or a moral failing. That emotional pain is separate from your brain wiring. And that quantum physics is just science fiction jargon. This week on Win Today, Dr. Lee Warren—a neurosurgeon, Iraq War vet, and author—pushes back on all of that. He exposes how unraveling addiction requires more than therapy—it demands restructuring your neural pathways. He digs into how neurodivergent brains function, why most spiritual advice fails, and how quantum physics reveals that your brain isn't a victim—it's a participant. Lee will show you why normal isn't enough, why passive hope is setting you up for failure, and why self‑brain‑surgery—rewiring your neural patterns—is the ultimate resistance. If you're wrestling with addictive patterns, feeling trapped in mental loops, or want hard science fused with spiritual hope, this conversation will light a fire under you. This isn't motivation—it's neuroscience applied. It's the answer buried inside your skull. Episode Links Show Notes Buy my NEW BOOK "Healing What You Can't Erase" here!

LESSON 162I Am As God Created Me.This single thought, held firmly in the mind, would save the world. From time to time we will repeat it, as we reach another stage in learning. It will mean far more to you as you advance. These words are sacred, for they are the words God gave in answer to the world you made. By them it disappears, and all things seen within its misty clouds and vaporous illusions vanish as these words are spoken. For they come from God.Here is the Word by which the Son became His Father's happiness, His Love and His completion. Here creation is proclaimed, and honored as it is. There is no dream these words will not dispel; no thought of sin and no illusion which the dream contains that will not fade away before their might. They are the trumpet of awakening that sounds around the world. The dead awake in answer to its call. And those who live and hear this sound will never look on death.Holy indeed is he who makes these words his own; arising with them in his mind, recalling them throughout the day, at night bringing them with him as he goes to sleep. His dreams are happy and his rest secure, his safety certain and his body healed, because he sleeps and wakens with the truth before him always. He will save the world, because he gives the world what he receives each time he practices the words of truth.Today we practice simply. For the words we use are mighty, and they need no thoughts beyond themselves to change the mind of him who uses them. So wholly is it changed that it is now the treasury in which God places all His gifts and all His Love, to be distributed to all the world, increased in giving; kept complete because its sharing is unlimited. And thus you learn to think with God. Christ's vision has restored your sight by salvaging your mind.We honor you today. Yours is the right to perfect holiness you now accept. With this acceptance is salvation brought to everyone, for who could cherish sin when holiness like this has blessed the world? Who could despair when perfect joy is yours, available to all as remedy for grief and misery, all sense of loss, and for complete escape from sin and guilt?And who would not be brother to you now; you, his redeemer and his savior. Who could fail to welcome you into his heart with loving invitation, eager to unite with one like him in holiness? You are as God created you. These words dispel the night, and darkness is no more. The light is come today to bless the world. For you have recognized the Son of God, and in that recognition is the world's.- Jesus Christ in ACIM

God has a secret place of protection and it shelters us from all harm. As we learn to dwell in it, we are safe and secure in our Father's love. This is a study of Psalm 91. http://www.prayerdrive.com/

In this opening episode of The Road to Wholeness, we begin with a map—not of streets and cities, but of the human person. Drawing from St. Teresa of Avila, Benedict XVI, and the deep wells of Christian anthropology, we explore what it means to be made in the image of God. Before any healing can begin, we must remember who we are: someone, not something. This episode charts the terrain of the soul—our intellect, will, and capacity for love—and lays the foundation for a journey of restoration, not into self-perfection, but into divine communion. It's not self-help. It's grace.   Here are some journal and prayer prompts to help you dive deeper:  What lies have I believed about myself, God, or others that keep me from living in the truth of who I am? How do I respond to beauty when I encounter it—in art, nature, or another person? What does that response reveal about my soul's longing? When was the last time I felt truly seen and known? What did that moment teach me about communion and trust? What rhythms or practices help me live from grace rather than striving for control or perfection?

What does true intimacy look like through God's eyes—and how do we reclaim it after the devastation of betrayal? In this powerful episode, I'm joined by my friend Michelle Castro, host of the Rip It Off Podcast, for a deeply honest conversation about biblical intimacy, sexual shame, and how to rebuild confidence after infidelity. We unpack: What biblical intimacy actually is (and how it radically differs from the world's version of sex and connection) Why reclaiming your sexual confidence is a vital step in the healing journey—especially for betrayed women What Scripture reveals about sexual wholeness in marriage How to break free from the lies of sexual shame with truth and grace If you've ever struggled to feel worthy, wanted, or whole again after betrayal, this episode will give you clarity, courage, and Christ-centered hope.

Creativity isn't just a skill, it's a lifeline in a play-deprived society. When young people feel unseen, unheard, and unwelcome, they shut down. Their development gets interrupted. Their story gets cut short. But give them the joy of movement, and a place to express their creativity, and something transformational happens. They come alive. Not because someone told them what to say or how to be, but because someone finally asked: Who are you? And what's inside you, waiting to be expressed? In this episode, we explore what happens when we stop trying to “fix” kids and instead create the conditions for them to be fully seen, felt, and valued. We look at how creativity, play, and radical presence can disrupt cycles of invisibility and disconnection, not just for youth, but for adults too. We're joined by Alana Shaw, founder of Turning the Wheel, a national nonprofit that brings creative expression to underserved youth across the country. Her work restores flow, it's not just about performance, but a return to inner wholeness. How does the power of play translate into healing? How do we reclaim our value and heal our inner child? In this conversation, Alana shares what happens when we invite kids to lead with their play and creativity, and how adults can grow self-love, regulate emotion, and begin reweaving the threads of their own stories.   Things You'll Learn In This Episode  Creativity as medicine What if expression, not explanation, is what really heals us? How can movement and play reach the parts of us that words can't? The power of being seen So many of us carry the wound of invisibility. What shifts when someone meets you with full-bodied presence and says, “You matter. I see you.”? How to love yourself for real Self-love isn't just a concept. It can be a practice we return to daily. How do we do this with more ease and joy?  Growing wholeness in others (and ourselves) Healing isn't about fixing what's broken, but about restoring the flow from within. How do we cultivate environments where people feel free to unfold?   Guest Bio Alana Shaw is the founder and executive director of Turning the Wheel.

With so many stressful events going on in the world, do you want to feel at peace, but find yourself getting triggered? Lisa continues the conversation today with guest Tamala Floyd, an expert in the Internal Family Systems model of psychotherapy. She further discusses “parts” therapy and explains how to be in relationship with our “selves” and our internal guidance systems. Tamala is a psychotherapist, consultant, author, and speaker with more than 20 years of experience. Her books and audio include “Listening When Parts Speak” and “Healing the Wounded Mother.” Tamala talks about the importance of our parts, including ones who hold rage, as well as the anxious parts, and the harming parts, which includes self-harm. These parts are common to humans across the world. Any part could be used for protection. Anything that our parts have taken on as a burden is to protect us from our internal wounds. We may feel unlovable or not good enough. This is the part that pushes people away. All the messages we get when we are young, whether we feel unworthy, too loud, too quiet, etc. all actually protect us. Tamala talks about Internal Family Systems. Our parts operate like family. Some get along, while some do not. Some have certain skills, which can help to heal. She explains how parts theory is based on Internal Family Systems. So how can a raging part protect us? At some point, it protects the sensitive part of ourselves. It's the protector for the one who is too sensitive. All parts do not speak. They may show as a color, change of temperature, a picture, or feeling. We can also talk to ancestral parts of ourselves and bring them into present time. Tamala also discusses “legacy burdens” which are the burdens passed down through generations. These are not lived experiences, but experiences that are passed down. It can be incredibly uplifting to release these burdens. She explains that these are often easier to release, and once they are released, the person has more energy to work on themselves. Tamala also leads us through a powerful process of talking to our parts. She asks us to let it be however it needs to be and invites us to note what it is telling us. Listen. Be open and curious. She also discusses generational gifts and heirlooms. We don't want to get rid of our parts; we want to get rid of the burdens so we can be in a healthy relationship with them. Tamala also talks about her new audio program, “Healing the Wounded Mother.” It's about going to the source first. She invites us to get to the root of what's happening so healing can occur.

Perfectionism can feel holy—but it's keeping you trapped. In this episode, Ellen sits down with guest Bethany Broderick to talk about the hidden struggle of perfectionism in the Christian life. Together, they open up about their battles with inner critics, shame cycles, and the pressure to “get it all right.”But there's good news: God never asked us to be perfect—He invites us to be free.

In a culture obsessed with self-discovery, the pursuit of "finding yourself" often leads to more confusion than clarity.

He delves into how pride creates distance and separation, the pain inherent in midlife transitions, and the transformative power of embracing life's wilderness seasons.
