In this honest and eye-opening episode, Lindsey Maestas dives deep into the impact of ADHD on relationships and friendships. With vulnerability, faith, and research-backed insight, she explores why many people with ADHD subconsciously seek out chaos, conflict, toxic relationships, or emotionally unavailable partners. It isn't out of desire, but as a way of seeking out neurological stimulation. Lindsey discusses how ADHD can intensely heighten feelings of rejection, create a cycle of emotional highs and lows in relationships, often leading to toxic dynamics, chronic arguing, and feelings of inadequacy or isolation. She unpacks the difference between laziness and ADHD Paralysis, explaining the brain science behind task initiation struggles and why shame is often misdirected. Whether you've been diagnosed with ADHD, have a partner or friend who struggles with it, or simply relate to the patterns of emotional burnout, impulsive decisions, or feeling like you're “too much” in relationships, this episode is a lifeline. Lindsey encourages self-compassion and offers tangible insight to help you understand your brain, regulate your emotions, and build healthier, more stable connections without sacrificing your joy.

An episode that deeply values justice and honesty!In Episode 149 of The Autistic Culture Podcast, Dr. Angela Kingdon explores Pillar 9 of Autistic Culture: Justice Seeking, with special guest Clare Kumar, productivity expert and host of the Happy Space Podcast, to explore Justice Seeking — the 9th pillar of autistic culture.Claire is a late-diagnosed autistic woman, executive coach, and productivity speaker. She brings unique insight into neurodivergent efficiency, workplace design, and inclusive spaces through her work with Hidden Disabilities Canada and her signature Joy Inventory tool.If you've ever been accused of being “too intense,” “too rigid,” or “black-and-white,” this episode is for you. Angela and Claire flip the script and reclaim those traits as moral clarity, fairness-driven thinking, and authentic advocacy — powerful parts of autistic identity.Here's what defines this core Autistic trait:* We call out what others ignore.Autistic people are often the first to question broken systems, double standards, and flawed logic. We don't pretend it makes sense—we say it doesn't.* We sense injustice instantly.Misaligned actions, hypocrisy, and favouritism aren't just annoying—they feel unbearable. Fairness isn't optional. It's foundational.* We speak up—no matter the cost.Whether it's calling out ableism, bias, or misinformation, autistic advocates often challenge power structures—even when it's uncomfortable.* We hold systems to their own rules.We expect policies to be applied with consistency and equity. Selective enforcement? We notice—and we question it.* We feel justice in our bodies.What's labelled as “Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria” is often justice sensitivity—a real-time emotional response to being dismissed for telling the truth.* We don't fake neutrality.When something's wrong, we can't mask it. We're not “too intense”—we're deeply aligned with our values.* We crave clarity, not conflict.Accountability helps us feel safe. We don't want to blame—we want to understand what went wrong and how to fix it.* We value truth over comfort.Authenticity matters more than approval. Many of us would rather lose a friendship than betray our principles.Key Concepts* ✨ Moral clarity: We often see the ethical core of a situation before others do—and struggle to stay silent about it.*

Explore the Neurosomatic Intelligence Coaching Certification: https://neurosomaticintelligence.com/ What if perfectionism isn't ambition, but a nervous system reflex for survival? In this episode of Trauma Rewired, we're joined by returning guest Piper Rose of ShadowPlay Coaching to explore perfectionism and rejection sensitivity through a neuroscience and trauma-informed lens. We reframe perfectionism as a high-cost survival strategy rooted in complex trauma, societal conditioning, and early nervous system adaptations. Together, Elisabeth Kristof, Jennifer Wallace, and Piper unpack how perfectionistic behaviors can emerge as reflexive responses to rejection sensitivity dysphoria (RSD), relational trauma, and the need for social safety. You'll learn the neurobiology of rejection, the health costs of chronic perfectionism, and how to shift from performance and people-pleasing into embodied wholeness. The episode offers practical tools and empowering frameworks for understanding the somatic roots of perfectionism and reclaiming your internal safety and authenticity. This is a deeply validating conversation for anyone who's ever felt like they had to earn love, approval, or belonging through being “perfect.” Topics discussed in this episode: Why perfectionism is a survival response, not a personality trait How rejection sensitivity forms in the nervous system The difference between perfectionism and growth-oriented excellence Why our brains respond to social rejection like physical pain The “garden” metaphor for complex trauma and coping How societal systems reinforce performance-based self-worth Chronic illness and the cost of emotional suppression The link between self-sacrifice and autoimmune conditions Why the nervous system must be regulated before healing perfectionism How somatic work shifts self-rejection into self-acceptance The paradox of people-pleasing and codependency Reclaiming energy and creativity from high-resource coping mechanisms Explore the Neurosomatic Intelligence Coaching program: https://neurosomaticintelligence.com/ To learn more about Piper Rose and Shadow Play coaching, head to https://piperrosecoaching.com/ Connect with Piper on Instagram by heading to https://www.instagram.com/shadowplaycoaching/ Get started training your nervous system with our FREE 2-week offer on the Brain Based Membership site: https://www.rewiretrial.com Find Trauma Rewired on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TraumaRewired Connect with us on social media: @trauma.rewired Join the Trauma Rewired Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/761101225132846 FREE 1 Year Supply of Vitamin D + 5 Travel Packs from Athletic Greens when you use our exclusive offer: https://www.drinkag1.com/rewired Trauma Rewired podcast is intended to educate and inform but does not constitute medical, psychological or other professional advice or services.

Garth Heckman The David Alliance TDAgiantSlayer@Gmail.com What do you love the most? A certain type of food? Your spouses hips or lips? Your job? The money you make? Your biceps? Your ministry? Your 1953 corvette? Your brand-new Mercedes? Your girlfriend? Alcohol? Drugs? Your phone? Or maybe it is far worse than that? Maybe you are in love with…. Thats where we are going today! What are you in love with… a lot of answers come to mind… but I believe they all stem from one basic foundation. We love to be approved by others. We love others approval. And we are willing to do just about anything to get it. The approval of other people is so important to most because it's deeply rooted in fundamental human psychological and evolutionary needs. Here's a breakdown of the key reasons: 1. Evolutionary and Survival Instincts: Historical Necessity: For much of human history, belonging to a group or tribe was essential for survival. Being accepted meant access to resources, protection from threats, and the ability to find a mate and raise offspring. Rejection from the group could be a death sentence. This deep-seated fear of rejection and need for acceptance has been passed down through generations. Social Connection: Humans are inherently social creatures. Our brains are wired for connection, and social interaction plays a crucial role in our well-being. Approval from others reinforces our sense of belonging and validates our place within a community. 2. Psychological Needs: Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs: The need for belongingness and love, and then esteem, are fundamental human needs in Maslow's hierarchy, ranking above basic physiological and safety needs. Approval from others contributes directly to these levels, making us feel loved, accepted, and valued. Self-Esteem and Self-Worth: For many, external validation acts as a mirror, reflecting back a sense of their own worth. When we receive approval, compliments, or praise, it can boost our confidence and reaffirm our abilities. Conversely, a lack of approval or criticism can lead to feelings of inadequacy and low self-esteem. Fear of Rejection and Judgment: This is a powerful motivator. Many people seek approval to avoid the pain of being rejected, criticized, or judged. This fear can stem from childhood experiences where acceptance felt conditional. Dopamine Release: Receiving external validation, like likes on social media or compliments, can trigger the release of dopamine, a "feel-good" neurotransmitter in the brain. This creates a temporary sense of pleasure and satisfaction, which can lead to a desire to repeat behaviors that elicit this response. Social Comparison: We often compare ourselves to others to gauge our own performance, appearance, and social standing. Seeking approval can be a way to ensure we measure up favorably in these comparisons. 3. Childhood Experiences: Early Conditioning: Our early experiences, particularly with caregivers, heavily influence our need for approval. Children who receive consistent approval and validation tend to develop a stronger internal sense of self-worth. Those who experience neglect, criticism, or conditional acceptance may grow up with a persistent need for external validation. Learning Behavior: As children, we naturally look to our parents for recognition and validation when we accomplish something. This teaches us that external feedback is a way to understand if we've done "a good thing." 4. Societal and Cultural Factors: Social Norms: Society often has unspoken rules and expectations. Conforming to these norms can lead to increased social acceptance. Deviating from them can result in social exclusion. Social Media: The digital age has intensified the pursuit of approval. Platforms that revolve around "likes," "shares," and comments provide constant opportunities for external validation, which can become addictive and lead to an unhealthy reliance on others' opinions for self-worth. Botton line is this - you seek peoples approval because you don't know you you have Gods approval. Look one of my favorite memories is competing as a powerlifter and pulling 670 in Masters division one - it was a grind… drug free, no suit, just me and the iron - and when I was done I had Donnie Thompson who was at the judges table taking numbers call me over and tell me that it was a great lift. Donnie thompson is on the mount Rushmore of powerlifters. The first one ever to hit a 3000 pound total. When he says Great lift - it doens't really matter what anyone else thinks. He is the king of powerlifting. Well we serve another king who is the King of the world, the universe… and when we know we have his approval - nothing else matters. Galatians 1:10 Obviously, I'm not trying to win the approval of people, but of God. If pleasing people were my goal, I would not be Christ's servant. OOOHhhhh this is sooo good. Did you catch it? You serve the one who's approval you seek. So whomever you are hoping to be approved by - you will do whatever it takes to show them you are their servant. The world loves suckers like you. I live my life on one simple rule… If I know my relationship with God is good… then I don't give two cats meows about what anyone else thinks about me, what I do, what I say, where I go, what I believe in, what I stand for or what I preach or post on social media. I don't care - because God approves of me. How do you know God approves of you? Well you don't earn it. You don't have to be special, you don't have to be good enough… you simply trust in his grace and his work on the cross. And here is the real secret, when you know you have Gods approval, you are free to be exactly who he created you to be.
Hiiii DTS FAMMMM!!!!!!
Guiding Question Why does God allow Christians to suffer, and how should we respond when we face ridicule or rejection for living a godly life? Summary In this compelling sermon, Dr. Robert Lewis explores the often-unspoken reality of Christian suffering—not the kind caused by general hardship, but the unique suffering believers face simply for following Christ. Drawing from 1 Peter 4:12–19, he unpacks why this suffering is inevitable, what purpose it serves, and how we are called to respond. With honesty, humility, and clarity, Dr. Lewis addresses the emotional and spiritual challenges that come with being mocked, misunderstood, or even reviled for the mere name "Christian." Using real-life stories—from Bob Dylan's conversion to personal moments of shame and boldness—he helps believers understand that such trials are not strange but deeply meaningful. They test our faith, shape our character, and identify us with Christ's own suffering. And ultimately, they prepare us for joy—now and in eternity. Whether you're enduring peer pressure, workplace opposition, or quiet loneliness for your faith, this message will challenge and encourage you to rejoice and entrust your soul to a faithful Creator. Outline: Introduction The context of 1 Peter and Peter's own martyrdom. Today's suffering may not be physical—but it is real. The Inevitability of Christian Suffering (v.12) “Fiery ordeal” is not strange—it's to be expected. Christian suffering is promised (2 Tim. 3:12). The “bed of roses syndrome” many young believers fall into. The Reason for Christian Suffering (v.12) It tests our faith and proves its authenticity. Real-life example: a Christian in Peru losing his job over integrity. The Benefits of Christian Suffering (vv.13–14) It aligns us with Christ's suffering. There is joy now and joy to come. It brings power and anointing (Spirit of glory rests on us). The Boundaries of Christian Suffering (vv.15–16) Not all suffering is godly—don't suffer for wrongdoing. Avoid becoming a "troublesome meddler." The Perspective of Judgment (vv.17–18) God's judgment starts with the household of God but extends to unbelievers. Suffering reveals both the saved and the condemned. The Proper Response to Suffering (v.19) Entrust your soul to a faithful Creator. Do what is right—stand firm in faith. Conclusion & Prayer Encouragement for those who've faced rejection for their faith. A call to endure joyfully, just as Christ did. Key Takeaways Christian suffering is not optional; it's promised. Living godly in Christ will bring opposition. Suffering is a test. It reveals whether we truly follow Christ or just admire Him from afar. There is joy in suffering. Rejection aligns us with Jesus and assures us of future glory. Suffering brings spiritual power. When we stand up for our faith, God's Spirit strengthens us. Not all suffering is righteous. We must guard against self-inflicted trouble and judgmental attitudes. Eternal perspective is essential. Our present trials are nothing compared to the judgment awaiting those who reject Christ. Scriptural References 1 Peter 4:12–19 – Main passage on Christian suffering and response. 2 Timothy 3:12 – “All who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will be persecuted.” Hebrews 12:1–2 – Jesus endured suffering for the joy set before Him. Romans 8:1 – “There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.” Matthew 5:11–12 – “Blessed are you when others revile you… rejoice and be glad.” Recorded 10/26/80
Emotional wounds, such as rejection and betrayal, can deeply impact lives, destroying relationships and self-worth. Rejection, often from close family or friends, fosters feelings of being unloved, unwanted, and unworthy, leading to isolation and mistrust. Betrayal, especially by those closest, inflicts profound pain, triggering anger and hindering emotional healing. Drawing from biblical examples like Joseph and Jesus, who faced rejection and betrayal yet found restoration, the message emphasizes God's power to heal these wounds. Through prayer and faith, individuals can find healing, turn shame into honor, and experience miracles born from their pain.All these questions were answered just as Perry Stone, Jonathan Cahn, John Hagee, Jentezen Franklin, Benny Hinn, Chris Oyaklihome, Steven Furtick, Joel Osteen, Joseph Prince, Joyce Meyer, Paul Dhinakaran, Samuel Patta, Ezekiah Francis, Johnson Varghese, Paul Thangiah, Mohan C Lazarus, TD Jakes and others01.)

In Episode 254 of The Business Development Podcast, we sit down with Kapil Kalra, the passionate force behind Naturemary and a powerhouse in the world of natural wellness. Kapil opens up about his early days working in his family's grocery store in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, and how those humble beginnings shaped his unshakable work ethic. From selling electronics to launching a national wellness brand, Kapil's journey is packed with gritty determination, unfiltered lessons, and the relentless belief that heart and hustle can take you anywhere.This episode dives deep into the emotional and entrepreneurial rollercoaster of building something that matters—from overcoming rejection and burnout to building partnerships and scaling a mission-driven brand. Kapil shares how Naturemary was born out of family healing, the lessons he's learned about team, branding, and momentum, and why purpose is more important than ever in today's business world. If you're building with heart, this one's for you.Key takeaways: 1. Success often begins with a simple intention to help someone, not a perfectly laid-out business plan.2. When you build a brand from a place of heart and purpose, it resonates far deeper than just features or pricing.3. Rejection doesn't mean you're on the wrong path—it often means you're being redirected to a better one.4. Some of the most powerful businesses are born from solving a real, personal problem you deeply care about.5. Choosing the right business partner means finding someone whose strengths cover your blind spots—and vice versa.6. Don't wait for everything to be perfect—clarity and momentum come through taking action, not overthinking.7. Working nonstop might feel productive at first, but without rest and balance, burnout will eventually catch up to you.8. When your brand voice is honest and real, you attract customers who genuinely believe in what you're doing.9. Burnout isn't always from doing too much—it's often a sign you've lost touch with why you started in the first place.10. Passion is a great spark, but pairing it with relentless effort is what actually builds something worth talking about.Links referenced in this episode:capitalbd.canaturemary.comkellykennedyofficial.comJoin The Catalyst ClubConnect with a powerhouse community of entrepreneurs, business developers, and leaders who get it.

The sermon examines the opposition faced by Jesus during his ministry, highlighting that the most significant challenge came not from external forces but from religious leaders who clung to tradition and self-righteousness. Drawing parallels with the Ninevites and the Queen of Sheba, the message emphasizes that true faith and repentance, rather than mere outward conformity, are essential for a meaningful relationship with God. Ultimately, the sermon warns against the danger of an empty life, susceptible to spiritual emptiness and the intrusion of destructive influences, and calls for a complete surrender to Christ to experience true life and overcome spiritual opposition.

Send us a textGuest: Brent Taylor – Gospel Singer, Songwriter, Pastor, and MentorIn this deeply moving episode of the Stories to Create Podcast, Cornell Bunting sits down with Brent Taylor, a gospel artist and spiritual leader whose journey is a profound testimony of grace, resilience, and redemption.Brent's story begins with a powerful act of love—his 13-year-old birth mother placing him for adoption. He was welcomed into the home of Wendy, a devoted Mennonite, and Glenn, a man of mixed Black and Native American heritage from a Pentecostal background. These God-ordained parents raised Brent in a Christian home filled with compassion, strength, and purpose—nurturing not only him but more than 160 foster children over 35 years.Reflecting on his life, Brent shared,“We are not the sum of what we've been through, but the sum of what God brought us through. We all have a story, but the common thread in all our stories is His grace. His love. His redeeming power. He has walked with us every day of our lives.”Brent opens up about the challenges of growing up as a mixed-race child in a predominantly white community—facing racism, rejection, and misunderstanding in school. Misdiagnosed and mislabeled, he struggled academically, often being called "stupid" and placed in remedial classes. It wasn't until later he was diagnosed with ADD. But through it all, sports and his vibrant personality gave him an outlet—and his parents' prayers kept him going.“I was great at sports and even better with people. Basketball helped me survive school. My personality and my parents' prayers helped me survive life.”Even while he wrestled with his identity and acceptance, God never let go.“When I tried to run, He didn't let me get far. I struggled with knowing who I was, but God always pulled me back.”Brent eventually found his refuge at the piano. There, in the quiet moments of songwriting, he found a voice to speak directly to God. Music became his language. Worship became his way of life.“Worship is more than words—it's the heart's action, a lifestyle of love in spirit and truth. It's our honor displayed to the heart of the Father.”Despite falling short, facing broken relationships, and battling inner demons, Brent never stopped being pursued by grace.“He chose me—even when I wouldn't choose myself. Through all the pain, anger, confusion, and lies, God never left. Through the Holy Spirit, He opened my eyes and my heart.”Tune in to this powerful episode to hear more of Brent Taylor's inspiring journey of faith, healing, and calling—and how God's grace has been the constant thread through it all.

Most people avoid cold calls. Gabe Lullo built a multi-million dollar company on them. Gabe Lullo didn't take a traditional route to the top. He started in the trenches, working the phones as an SDR, and built his way up to CEO of Alleyoop, a global sales development firm making over 11 million cold calls a year. Along the way, he juggled rejection, resilience, and yes—actual juggling. In this episode of Rising Tide Startups, host Kevin Prewett sits down with Gabe to unpack the real story behind scaling a sales-driven company from scratch. With a degree from the Barney School of Business and more than a decade running his own sales, marketing, and training firm, Gabe brought deep experience in recruiting and leadership before ever stepping into the CEO seat. He shares how those early roles, from executive search to culture-building, shaped how he leads today. Gabe also unpacks why sales development should be treated as its function, why cold calling still works, and how product-market fit makes or breaks a sales strategy. Beyond tactics, the conversation explores leadership, culture, and building teams that scale. Gabe shares why every hire interviews with him personally, how he empowers leaders to own decisions, and the mindset that's carried him from startup days to leading a 100+ person team. His story is grounded in grit, but it's also filled with systems and structure that anyone can learn from. Key Takeaways: Cold Calling Isn't Dead—It Just Needs a Human Touch. Despite spam filters and caller ID, phone calls are still the fastest way to book meetings when done correctly. Leadership can be earned from the ground up. Experience at every level of a company builds the kind of perspective and empathy that drives strong, effective leadership. Sales Is About Grit, Not Just Technique. Red Apples, Green Apples, Rotten Apples. This is a powerful metaphor for: 10% are “red apples”—ready to buy. 10% are “rotten apples”—never going to convert. 80% are “green apples”—undecided, and this is where great salespeople shine. Success in sales comes from nurturing the green apples through timing, perspective-shifting, and persistence. Rejection builds resilience. Facing consistent “no's” in business teaches adaptability, sharpens communication, and strengthens long-term confidence. Don't scale without product-market fit. No amount of leads or marketing can fix a poor offering. Sustainable growth starts with a clear value proposition and a validated market need. If you're not excited to sell it, neither will your team be.

Is The Diddy Verdict A Societal Rejection Of The 'MeToo' Era Description: The verdict in the Diddy trial did more than divide legal analysts—it reignited a cultural debate we thought had already been settled: Are we still in the #MeToo era, or are we witnessing its slow rejection in real time? In this provocative and timely episode, attorney Eric Faddis joins us to ask whether the jury's refusal to convict Diddy on sex trafficking and racketeering charges reflects something far larger than one trial. Was this a quiet rebuke of #MeToo itself? We dig into how jurors today process trauma testimony, particularly in high-profile cases involving powerful men. Did they not believe the victims—or did they simply believe the behavior, while wrong, wasn't “criminal enough”? And if so, what does that say about where the public conscience currently sits? Eric brings his dual perspective as both a former prosecutor and defense attorney to tackle key questions: Have jurors developed fatigue toward celebrity abuse cases? Was the bar set during #MeToo too high for a jury now looking for “perfect victims”? How does the absence of physical captivity or force change jurors' perception of abuse? We also explore whether prosecutors leaned too heavily on cultural cues—assuming jurors would “feel the moment” without hammering home the legal definitions needed for conviction. Eric explains the difference between moral outrage and legal proof, and how one doesn't always translate to the other in court. Ultimately, this episode asks whether this verdict was less about Diddy—and more about us. If we don't recognize psychological coercion and exploitation as crimes anymore, what kind of accountability is left? #MeTooVerdict #DiddyTrial #EricFaddis #CulturalBacklash #JusticeFatigue #CelebrityTrials #TrueCrimeCulture #PowerAndAccountability #SexTraffickingTrial #HiddenKillers Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

I'm going to be real with you—sometimes the biggest business breakthroughs don't happen on stage, in a meeting, or during a strategy session. They happen when your feelings get hurt, your plans go sideways, and you say “yes” anyway.In this episode, I'm sharing the behind-the-scenes story of how a last-minute trip to Nashville turned into one of the most impactful mastermind experiences of my year—all because I chose to show up, even when I felt excluded.Here's the tea: I wasn't invited to a mastermind dinner I thought I'd be part of. And, like any human with a beating heart, I had a lot of feelings. I let myself sit in them. I reached out to my girl Amy Porterfield. And instead of letting the exclusion define me, I made a new story—and booked a plane ticket.Spoiler: That trip led to a powerful mini mastermind with some of the most brilliant female entrepreneurs I know (Jenna Kutcher, Bonnie Christine, and more), and I walked away 1% better—and with 5 key takeaways you can apply to your business today.Here's what you'll learn:Why rest is just as productive as hustleHow to reframe moments of rejectionWhat “choosing a better story” looks like in actionThe power of informal opportunitiesHow to squeeze value out of every experience (even the ones that don't go as planned)Whether you're navigating disappointment or wondering if it's worth hopping on a plane last-minute, I hope this episode encourages you to trust the process and say yes to what could be next.Because the truth is, the right rooms won't just open for you—they'll find you when you're ready.Click play to hear all of this and:[00:54] Why Rejection Hurt: Unpacking a Business Exclusion[02:44] Choose a Better Story: How I Reframed the Narrative[03:42] How Vulnerability Sparked a New Opportunity[04:32] The 1% Rule: Why Small Gains Lead to Big Growth[05:28] 32 Hours in Nashville: High-Energy Learning & Connections[08:04] Informal Masterminds Matter: What This Trip Taught Me[10:22] Why Being Present (Even When Disappointed) Still Pays OffListen to Related Episodes:Three Ways to Remove Comparison and Become UnstoppableBuilding Confidence with Ease: How I'm Becoming the 3X Version of Myself

In this inspiring episode, Bart Berkey sits down with Gavin Mlinar, CEO of Blacklisted Consulting and author of Yes, Your Way to Success. Why Don't You? Gavin shares the remarkable story of how his upbringing, mindset, and resilience have driven him to negotiate billion-dollar contracts, become an endurance athlete, and launch his own company—all through one key trait: decisiveness. Together, they unpack what it takes to keep going when most people quit, and how to act with confidence even when conditions aren't perfect.Major Takeaways / Learnings:1. Most People Don't Ask… But Gavin Does. Gavin landed on this podcast simply by reaching out with authenticity and persistence—something most people don't do.2. Rejection is Practice. Cold-calling 100 people a day at Merrill Lynch taught Gavin to normalize “no.” He reframed rejection as part of the process, not a signal to stop.3. Decisiveness Is a Superpower. According to his book coach (also a therapist), Gavin is one of the most decisive people they've ever met—and that's what makes him different.4. Forget Perfect—Take Action. Waiting for the perfect moment or perfect plan often leads to stagnation. Gavin encourages forward momentum over perfectionism.5. Two Steps to Progress: 1) Research and validate through resources and conversations. 2) Make a decision, take action, and adjust along the way.6. Ask for Help. Often. Most people don't ask—but most people are predisposed to help when asked. Gavin encourages breaking through that hesitation.7. Effort + Attitude = Progress. Gavin teaches his kids—and lives himself—by these two values. You don't need perfection, just consistent energy and a positive mindset.Memorable Quotes:1. “Most people don't ask for help. But most people are predisposed to help when asked.” – Gavin Mlinar2. “There are very few things in life that are final. Failure is just learning in disguise.” – Gavin3. “You get to wake up early. You get to catch that flight. That shift in mindset is everything.” – Bart Berkey4. “Most people don't… say yes.” – Gavin MlinarWhy It Matters / How to Use It:Listeners will walk away with practical tools to become more decisive, more resilient, and more open to opportunities. Gavin's approach—research, then act—can be applied to anything from writing a book to launching a business, asking for a promotion, or learning how to surf. His mindset of saying "yes" before conditions are perfect is a challenge to the perfectionist in all of us and his emphasis on attitude and effort is a reminder that consistency and courage can unlock extraordinary results.Resources & Links:Gavin Mlinar on LinkedIn: Click hereYes Your Way website: www.yesyourway.comBart Berkey: MostPeopleDont.com | LinkedInFill in the Blank:Most people don't…" say yes.

Mental Toughness Mastery Podcast with Sheryl Kline, M.A. CHPC
http://www.sherylkline.com/blogIn the latest Fearless Female Leadership interview, I had the privilege of speaking with Kristyn Ramsey, Senior Director of Learning & Development at D.R. Horton, about the power of humility, resilience, and lifelong learning in shaping fearless leadership. Kristyn's story is a reminder that authentic leadership starts with embracing rejection, choosing growth, and empowering others through trust and perspective.Kristyn opened up about the early influence of her parents—her father's goal-setting rituals and her mother's example of managing both work and home life—that instilled a fierce work ethic and sense of vision. Her career was not without challenges. Twice rejected for roles she deeply wanted, she chose to learn and improve instead of stepping back. Her experience underscores a core truth: setbacks can shape the most powerful comebacks.Leading with humility, Kristyn says, is not about shrinking—it's about shifting focus from self to service. It's a mindset that drives ROI through trust, engagement, and a culture of continuous growth. She emphasized that humility, psychological safety, and authenticity are critical to building high-performing, resilient teams in today's evolving workplace.Kristyn also shared her journey from comfort to courage—leaving a 24-year career to re-ignite her learning and leadership path. Now, more than ever, she believes, leaders must embrace learning, build ecosystems of trust, and use their voices to advocate for themselves and others.Key takeaways from the interview:0:01:03 – Kristyn's dad taught her to set annual personal and academic goals, instilling a lifelong mindset of vision and accountability.0:02:45 – Early rejections in her career shaped her resilience and clarity—she chose to grow through feedback rather than be discouraged.0:05:21 – The turning point came when a mentor told her: “Do what's right, not what's popular”—a mantra she still lives by.0:07:14 – Humility is a business driver, not a weakness—it directly impacts engagement, attrition, and innovation.0:09:36 – Everyone brings a unique gift to the table; leaders should create space for those gifts to flourish.0:12:58 – Psychological safety is foundational—people won't be vulnerable or authentic if they don't feel safe.0:14:47 – Even aspiring leaders can create microcultures of trust and humility by initiating conversations and building strong peer ecosystems.0:18:37 – Lifelong learning is essential to stay relevant, especially in a fast-changing world shaped by AI and shifting expectations.0:23:54 – AI won't replace humans—but those who know how to use it will have a major edge.0:25:19 – Rejection is redirection; choose growth, surround yourself with trusted allies, and value every person's spark.If you're interested in being featured on the Fearless Female Leadership podcast, or you're a leader looking to gain clarity on ‘what's next', how to build more cohesive and high-performing teams, and lead with greater confidence and influence, let's have a confidential conversation.Cheering you on always! – Sheryl

But the truth is, insecurity affects everyone, no matter how successful, talented, or confident they might appear. And the real danger isn't just feeling insecure—it's pretending we're not. Because when we hide our struggles, we actually give them more power over us.But here's the good news: honesty breaks the chains of insecurity. When we open up about our struggles, we invite healing, we invite freedom, and most importantly, we invite God into the places we've tried to hide. And today, we're going to talk about why being honest about our struggles is so important—not just for ourselves, but for those who are watching us.

The Dad Edge Podcast (formerly The Good Dad Project Podcast)
Have you ever asked yourself: "Why does sex feel confusing or frustrating in my long-term relationship?" "How do I deal with mismatched desire or feelings of rejection?" "Is there a way to bring passion back into our marriage beyond tricks or performance?" If sex and intimacy have become a perplexing part of your long-term relationship, get ready for a revolutionary reframe that will change how you approach connection. Today, Larry Hagner sits down with Susan Morgan Taylor, MA, a renowned somatic sex therapist, creator of the transformational Pleasure Keys Retreats, and host of the popular Sex Talk Café Podcast. She has helped hundreds of couples deepen intimate connection and create mutually satisfying sex and intimacy for the long term, and she's here to challenge the myth that passion is just about performance or "finding the right move." Susan Morgan Taylor reveals that true intimacy begins with presence: showing up, tuning in, and being fully responsible for your own pleasure and desires. She explains that when there's been a "drift" in your marriage, it's critical to slow down, get curious, and ask not just what you want, but who it's for. So many couples mistakenly go through the motions, assuming they know what pleases the other and settling for mediocre connection. The profound truth? Each partner is wired uniquely—and without ongoing, honest conversation, you can drift miles apart. Become the best husband you can: https://bit.ly/deamarriageyoutube In this revolutionary conversation, we dig into: Presence Over Performance: Why true intimacy starts with showing up, tuning in, and owning your own pleasure, moving beyond tricks or external validation. The Danger of the "Drift": How couples unknowingly settle for mediocre connection by assuming they know what pleases their partner without ongoing, honest conversation. Safety as the Ultimate Aphrodisiac: Why creating an environment where your partner can relax—free from pressure, kids bursting in, or a million distractions—is crucial for their willingness to lean in. Beyond Abs or Grand Gestures: The profound truth that genuine trust and moment-to-moment presence are the real keys to opening both her heart and body. Playful, Spacious, Non-Transactional Connection: How to bring curiosity, experimentation, and ownership back into your intimate relationship, even in uncomfortable moments. If you're ready to become not just a better lover, but a better man, this episode is your playbook for ditching resentment, reigniting real desire, and creating a marriage that's thriving, not just surviving. Here's what research and observation highlight about sexual intimacy in long-term relationships: Couples who prioritize emotional safety and open communication about sex report a 35% higher level of sexual satisfaction. Mismatched desire is a common challenge impacting over 30% of couples, but effective communication strategies can significantly improve outcomes. The consistent practice of mindful presence during intimate moments is linked to a 25% increase in shared pleasure and deeper connection. www.thedadedge.com/534 www.thedadedge.com/alliance www.thedadedge.com/25questions Instagram | Facebook | LinkedIn www.pathwaytopleasure.com FREE Pleasure Keys PDF → www.pleasurekeys.com

Episode SummaryIn this gripping episode of the GoMission podcast, Mark Gilmore sits down with Brother Deepraj to hear his incredible testimony of salvation and transformation. Born into a radical religious family and labeled "unholy" from birth, Deepraj endured unimaginable rejection, abuse, and spiritual confusion. But the God he once hated—the God he persecuted—pursued him, rescued him, and raised him up to be a disciple-maker whose ministry has now impacted hundreds of thousands across South Asia.Topics DiscussedGrowing up in a radical, anti-Christian homeCultural superstitions and being labeled "unholy"Surviving multiple suicide attempts and deep despairDiscovering the Bible and encountering the love of JesusFacing persecution and being disowned after salvationReceiving discipleship and training from a foreign missionaryThe simplicity and power of house church multiplicationUsing personal testimony and the Word of God as evangelism toolsOver 600,000 baptized and 120,000 house churches startedThe hope and healing that comes from being known and loved by GodKey TakeawaysEven the most rejected and broken life is not beyond the reach of God's redemptive love.True peace and healing come not through religion or ritual, but through a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.The Word of God, faithfully taught and obeyed, has the power to transform hearts and communities.Multiplication in missions is possible when ordinary believers are empowered by Scripture and the Spirit.God uses those who are willing—even the unwanted, the outcast, and the persecuted—to reach the nations for His glory.If you have your own unique story of gospel advance or if you sense God leading you toward a particular people group, we'd love to hear about it.

In this honest and insightful episode, Steve and Mary Alessi continue the conversation on the challenges faced by churches, Christians, and families when influential pastors and worship leaders fall into scandal or public failure. This time, we get even more personal as we evaluate the pastors and spiritual leaaders that share our same profession and faith - and then betrayed the trust of their followers.

Too often, we hear "no" and think it's the end of the road — but in reality, it's just the start of the real conversation. Whether you're selling lawn care services, pitching a sponsorship, or trying to grow your business, learning how to handle rejection is key to closing deals. We'll talk about how to turn objections into opportunities, build resilience, and reframe every "no" as a stepping stone toward success. Let's redefine the sales game, one no at a time.
