In this Mussar Masterclass (Day 112), Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe opens the Gate of Silence (Shtika) in Orchos Tzaddikim, praising silence as the greatest trait discovered among sages. Rabbi Shimon ben Gamliel declares: “All my life I grew up among sages and found nothing better for the body than silence.” King Solomon adds that even a fool who remains silent is considered wise, and one regrets speech far more often than silence.Silence protects from sin—especially lashon hara (slander), insults, and harmful words—while allowing deeper listening and reflection. Rabbi Wolbe critiques modern culture's loss of restraint, especially on social media, where anonymity enables vicious speech people would never say face-to-face (cyberbullying, sensationalism, "if it bleeds, it leads"). He warns that habitual negative speech erodes decency even toward the righteous.The episode calls for cultivating silence not as muteness, but as mindful speech: uplifting others, avoiding gossip, and recognizing words' power to heal or destroy. True wisdom lies in knowing when to speak—and when to refrain.Recorded at TORCH Centre in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on June 16, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on January 1, 2026_____________This series on Orchos Tzadikim/Ways of the Righteous is produced in partnership with Hachzek.Join the revolution of daily Mussar study at hachzek.com.We are using the Treasure of Life edition of the Orchos Tzadikkim (Published by Feldheim)_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jewish-inspiration-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1476610783Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4r0KfjMzmCNQbiNaZBCSU7) to stay inspired!

Episode 2 — Wisdom for the Next Generation with David RichardsonIn this second conversation with David Richardson, Tracy and Chris turn toward the lessons learned over a lifetime of faithful ministry. David speaks candidly about endurance, emotional health, humility, and the evolving landscape of pastoral leadership. He offers guidance for young pastors, encouragement for weary leaders, and insights into what truly matters over the long haul. The episode is filled with practical wisdom—simple, soulful reminders that leadership is not performance but discipleship, relationship, and steady obedience to Jesus. This is a hopeful, heart-shaping conversation for leaders at every stage. It offers guidance for lessons we should learn, who we can serve in leadership, and faith for what's next.https://www.rphc.net/https://www.hopewords.org/conferenceIPHC Extension Loan Fund - https://www.elfiphc.org/
Friends of the Rosary,Happy New Year!Today, January 1st, a holy day of obligation in the U.S., we begin the year 2026 by celebrating the Solemnity of Mary, the Holy Mother of God, our Lady's greatest title.The Virgin Mary was born to be the Divine Mother and give birth to the Savior. Through her, we receive adoption and enjoy a new life of grace.In adoring the Son of God made flesh in the Child of Bethlehem, we recognize that Mary is the Mother of God.The Catechism of the Catholic Church, 721, states:"Mary, the all-holy ever-virgin Mother of God, is the masterwork of the mission of the Son and the Spirit in the fullness of time. For the first time in the plan of salvation and because his Spirit had prepared her, the Father found the dwelling place where his Son and his Spirit could dwell among men. In this sense, the Church's Tradition has often read the most beautiful texts on wisdom in relation to Mary. Mary is acclaimed and represented in the liturgy as the "Seat of Wisdom."Also, on the first day of the year, we gain a plenary indulgence by reciting or singing the hymn Veni Creator Spiritus. This hymn calling on the Holy Spirit is traditionally sung for the beginnings of new endeavors.Today is also the World Day of Peace.Ave MariaCome, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

Welcome to Day 2765 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom. Day 2765 – Wisdom Nuggets – Psalm 104:10-23 – Daily Wisdom Wisdom-Trek Podcast Script - Day 2765 Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps! I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day 2765 of our Trek. The Purpose of Wisdom-Trek is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. The title for today's Wisdom-Trek is: The Domesticated Chaos – Water, Wine, and the Rhythms of Life. Today, we continue our exploration of the magnificent Psalm One Hundred Four, trekking through the middle section, verses ten through twenty-three, in the New Living Translation. In our previous trek through the opening verses of this psalm, we witnessed Yahweh as the Cosmic Architect. We saw Him robed in light, stretching out the heavens like a tent, and riding the storm clouds as His personal chariot. We saw Him rebuke the primeval chaos waters—the Tehom—driving them back with a shout of thunder to establish the dry land. That was a picture of Power and Conquest, establishing order over chaos. But today, the tone shifts from the dramatic to the domestic. Once the house is built, it must be furnished and supplied. In this section, the psalmist shows us that the very waters God rebuked in verse seven have now been tamed. They are no longer a threatening flood covering the mountains; they are now a life-giving gift flowing between the mountains. We will see God not just as the Builder, but as the Provider and the Timekeeper. He is the Host of a vibrant, teeming world where wild donkeys, nesting birds, roaring lions, and laboring humans all find their place and their portion from His hand. This is a celebration of the ecosystem of grace. So, let us walk by the quiet waters and through the green pastures of God's creation. The first segment is: The Taming of the Waters: Drink for the Wild. Psalm One Hundred Four: verses ten through twelve. You make springs pour into the ravines, so streams gush down from the mountains. They provide water for all the animals, and the wild donkeys quench their thirst. The birds nest beside the streams and sing among the branches of the trees. The psalmist begins by revisiting the element of water. In verses six through nine, water was a chaotic force that needed to be bounded. But now, in verse ten, God has domesticated it: "You make springs pour into the ravines, so streams gush down from the mountains." This is a profound theological statement. In the Divine Council worldview, the sea often represented hostility and death. But here, Yahweh transforms the chaotic element into a servant of life. He channels the water into "springs" (ma'yan) and "ravines" (nachal). He creates an irrigation system for the earth. And notice who the first beneficiaries are. It isn't humans. "They provide water for all the animals, and the wild donkeys quench their thirst." God cares for the "wild donkeys"...

This week on Acta Non Verba, I’m discussing the common practice of making New Year's resolutions, citing that 80% of people fail within two weeks. Rather than repeating the cycle, I have four transformational questions to help leaders align their goals with their vision and purpose. This episode provides an insight into the philosophies, tactics, and strategies used by successful leaders to overcome adversity and lead extraordinary lives.

As we enter 2026, so many of us want to face the year with the strongest mindset possible. With that in mind, I decided to rebroadcast my most listened-to episode, which explores why thought work in isolation can actually be detrimental.I don't use the word “detrimental” lightly—this realization came after hitting a very real personal rock bottom. I am a huge believer in the power of the mind and the importance of thinking in ways that are useful, supportive, and empowering. But through my own lived experience and through working with hundreds of clients and coaches, I came to understand that mindset work alone, without a full understanding of the brain, body, emotions, and nervous system, can do real harm.The key takeaway here is simple, yet profound: not all feelings arise from thoughts. Emotions have their own narratives and are often stored within our bodies, carrying important messages. The nervous system plays a crucial role in this interplay, and a "thoughts create feelings" perspective ignores that. 80% of messages travel from our bodies to our brains, not the other way around.This topic is not particularly light, but it is encouraging and deeply important. It is what catapulted my journey into creating holistic Master Coach Training—so I can help coaches be safe and ethical, and help each of you, as a human invested in your own growth, understand how to support self-mastery in a way that creates wholeness and healthy patterns. Whether you're a coach wanting to deepen your holistic approach, or someone on your own personal growth journey, I'm honored to share this very important episode with you again.What you'll learn:Why a thought-work-only perspective overlooks how the brain, body, and nervous system interactHow thought work in isolation can unintentionally increase emotional harm and self-blameWhy a whole-person approach is essential for safe and ethical coachingHow expanding beyond thought work was a turning point in my personal journeyHow holistic coaching creates a ripple effect that extends beyond the individualYou can read the full show notes here.Connect with Molly ClaireGet the book: She Rises: Insights and Wisdom from the Women of The Masterful Coach CollectiveMolly's Website: MollyClaire.ComMaster Coach Training 2026 Application Open Have a question or thoughts about the podcast?

In this engaging Ask Away episode, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe fields practical and profound questions from participants:Swearing on a non-Jewish Bible in court: In the U.S., one can "affirm" (not swear) under penalty of perjury, avoiding oaths prohibited by Torah; bringing a Chumash is ideal but not required.Cohen status: Transmitted only patrilineally; a Cohen father's daughter does not pass Cohen status to her son.Yom Kippur and Rosh Chodesh coinciding: Impossible, as Yom Kippur is fixed on 10 Tishrei while Rosh Hashanah (1 Tishrei) is always Rosh Chodesh (but overrides it as a greater celebration).Asking Hashem for specific signs: Perfectly permissible and powerful—Hashem responds to sincere, simple requests.Eating in a kosher-keeping but non-Shabbat-observant home: Delicate; Shabbat observance generally indicates reliability in other areas, but during growth transitions, caution is advised to avoid offense.Visualizing during prayer: Avoid images (risking idolatry roots); focus on standing alone under the heavens before Hashem's throne, or the personal intensity of addressing the King of Kings directly.The episode blends halachic precision with inspirational stories, emphasizing prayer as intimate conversation with Hashem, sensitivity in relationships, and viewing challenges as opportunities for growth.Please submit your questions at askaway@torchweb.org_____________The Everyday Judaism Podcast is dedicated to learning, understanding and appreciating the greatness of Jewish heritage and the Torah through the simplified, concise study of Halacha, Jewish Law, thereby enhancing our understanding of how Hashem wants us to live our daily lives in a Jewish way._____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by Marshall & Doreen LernerDownload & Print the Everyday Judaism Halacha Notes:https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1RL-PideM42B_LFn6pbrk8MMU5-zqlLG5This episode (Ep. #80) of the Everyday Judaism Podcast by Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe of TORCH is dedicated to my dearest friends, Marshall & Doreen Lerner!

What does it take to not only reach the pinnacle of a sport like World Long Drive but to sustain a nearly two-decade career at its peak? In this engaging episode we go far beyond the grid and the spectacle of 380-yard bombs to uncover the heart, wisdom, and entrepreneurial spirit of a true icon. Host Colin Weston sits down with the remarkable Phillis Meti - ranked #3 in the world and 5 time World Champ - to explore her incredible journey from picking up her father's shanked golf balls in New Zealand to becoming a global golf ambassador. Phillis opens up about the fierce mentality required to compete, the pivotal lessons learned from both victory and heartbreaking defeat, and her visionary mission to pave pathways for the next generation. This conversation is a masterclass in longevity, adaptability, and giving back. Whether you're fascinated by the physics of speed, the business of golf, or stories of profound resilience, Phillis's insights will leave you inspired and ready to “kick the door down” for your own ambitions. Get ready for an episode packed with power, purpose, and unforgettable stories. https://media24.fireside.fm/file/fireside-uploads-2024/images/1/1ea879c1-a4a2-4e10-bea4-e5d8368a3c7a/cTlwO047.jpg Key takeaways in this episode with Phillis that you will discover: Longevity is Built on Wisdom and Adaptability: Success isn't just about raw speed. Phillis credits her sustained career to evolving from a "fearless" hitter into a savvier technical player, learning to adapt her ball flight to different grids, and prioritizing recovery and intelligent strength training. True Power Starts with Your Hands: A crucial technical insight for anyone wanting more speed: your hands hold the club, so their movement is paramount. Phillis emphasizes that generating speed is a sequencing chain, where proper hip movement ultimately serves to allow the hands to move faster through the hitting zone. Create Pathways So Others Can Follow: Phillis's vision extends far beyond competition.

Phillis Meti's bio page >> https://modgolf.fireside.fm/guests/phillis-meti Phillis Meti is a multi-time World Long Drive Champion, currently ranked #3 globally, whose career embodies power, resilience, and purpose. Hailing from New Zealand, her journey began at age seven, wielding a club to pick up her father's errant golf balls. A gifted multi-sport athlete, she excelled in netball and discus before a flyer for a local long drive qualifier at age 18 changed her trajectory. Demonstrating breathtaking natural power, she not only qualified but went on to win the World Long Drive Championship in her very first attempt in 2006. Nearly two decades later, Phillis remains a dominant force, combining 125 MPH clubhead speed with hard-earned wisdom to outthink and outlast the competition on grids across the globe.

December 31 2025 Wednesday Who Jesus Made You To Be / Week 07 Wisdom In Christ Jesus #findoutwhoyouare My Vision My vision is to teach the world Who They Are In Jesus Christ their Lord and Savior! To Teach them what the Bible says about them and who they have been made to be in the promises of God's Word. This changed my life years ago and completely transformed me from a person full of doubt, fear and unbelief to a strong confident Christian that knows I can do anything through Jesus Christ my Lord and Savior. And I'm determined to teach the world what God has taught and commissioned me to teach and that is His Word. That commission takes me to jails and detention centers weekly along with other open doors at many churches and ministries that are wanting to teach these important truths to the world. My podcast goes out 6 days a week to help the people I am ministering to grow in the truths that God has taught me for many years now. This podcast is free to all that want to listen and grow strong in who God has made them to be in Christ Jesus their Lord and Savior. My Prayers For The World Ephesians 1:15-23 NLT 'Ever since I first heard of your strong faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for God's people everywhere, I have not stopped thanking God for you. I pray for you constantly, asking God, the glorious Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, to give you spiritual wisdom and insight so that you might grow in your knowledge of God. I pray that your hearts will be flooded with light so that you can understand the confident hope he has given to those he called—his holy people who are his rich and glorious inheritance. I also pray that you will understand the incredible greatness of God's power for us who believe him. This is the same mighty power that raised Christ from the dead and seated him in the place of honor at God's right hand in the heavenly realms. Now he is far above any ruler or authority or power or leader or anything else—not only in this world but also in the world to come. God has put all things under the authority of Christ and has made him head over all things for the benefit of the church. And the church is his body; it is made full and complete by Christ, who fills all things everywhere with himself.' Ephesians 3:14-21 NLT 'When I think of all this, I fall to my knees and pray to the Father, the Creator of everything in heaven and on earth. I pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources he will empower you with inner strength through his Spirit. Then Christ will make his home in your hearts as you trust in him. Your roots will grow down into God's love and keep you strong. And may you have the power to understand, as all God's people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is. May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God. Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think. Glory to him in the church and in Christ Jesus through all generations forever and ever! Amen.' Matthew 11:28 Find Rest In Jesus Christ Your Lord and Savior… Mark 10:29-30 100 Fold Return… Psalm 37:4 God will give you the desires of your heart… The Galations, having launched their Christian experience by faith, seem content to leave their voyage of faith and chart a new course based on works—a course Paul finds disturbing. His letter to the Galations is a vigorous attack against the gospel of works and a defense of the gospel of faith. Paul begins by setting forth his credentials as an apostle with a message from God: blessing comes from God on the basis of faith, not law. The law declares men guilty and imprisons them; faith sets men free to enjoy liberty in Christ. But liberty is not license. Freedom in Christ means freedom to produce the fruits of righteousness through a Spirit-led lifesty 2 Timothy 3:15 Romans 10:9-10 Salvation… 1 John 1:9 Confess your sins God Will Cleanse You… Romans 13:8 Live in God's Love… Romans 8:16-17 Heirs of God and Joint Heirs with Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior… Revelation 1:6 We are kings and priest in Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior… Romans 10:13 Call On The Name Of Jesus And Make Him Lord today… The Biblical Definition Of Grace Is God's Unmerited Favor… Matthew 18:19-20 I will agree with you about your prayer request… Acts 10:34 God is not a respecter of persons. He loves and cares for us all the same… Romans 12:3 God has given us His Faith… Biblical Hope Is A Confident Expectation… Romans 5:5 God has given us His Love… 2 Corinthians 5:17 We are new creatures in Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior… 2 Corinthians 5:21 We are the Righteousness of God in Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior… God's Word Is True Above All Opinions… Romans 12:2 Renew your mind to what God's Word says… Believe God's Word Above All Opinion… Philippians 4:13 We can do all things through Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior… Philippians 4:19 God will provide all your needs… Romans 10:17 Faith In God comes from hearing God's Word… Isaiah 54:17 No weapon will prosper against me… 1 John 4:4 Greater is He In All Of Us… 1 John 1:9 Confess your sins God Will Cleanse You… John 3:3 You Must Be Born Again… Luke 15:10 Heaven Rejoices Over One Person That Repents And Is Born Again… John 3:16 Believe On The Lord Jesus Christ Your Lord And Savior… 1 Peter 2:24 Healing… Mark 10:29-30 100 Fold Return… Luke 6:38 Give and it will be given unto you… Share This Podcast On Your Social Media Website https://the-prodigalson.com What God's Word Can Do In Your Life https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AJWTZG_x2vE&t=3s Email tstacyhayes@gmail.com YouVersion Bible App https://my.bible.comi iOS App https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/prodigal-son/id1450529518?mt=8 … Android App https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=tv.wizzard.android.prodical Social Media https://www.facebook.com/The-Prodigal-SON-209069136315959/ https://www.facebook.com/noreligion1511/ https://twitter.com/noreligion1511 https://www.instagram.com/noreligion1511/ https://m.youtube.com/channel/UCPx4s1CLkSYef6mp4dSuU4w/featured

Learn more at ramdass.org.“What I'm saying to you is, which yoga is appropriate for any human being, only that human being can figure out. And you can only figure it out by trying and testing and looking and quieting your heart and opening. One of you, it will be perfect for you to study and read holy book and Vedic tracts and things. For someone else, it'll be absolutely perfect to start to work with the energy. For someone else, it'll be perfect to do tantra. And it is not better or worse. These are merely different strategies. And some you will be sort of like I am, sort of like a chicken soup eclectic. And I do sort of play with all of these at a kind of superficial level.” – Ram DassSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode of the Jewish Inspiration Podcast (Mussar Masterclass, Gate of Forgetfulness), Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe explores the trait of forgetfulness as a dangerous flaw in both this world and the next. Forgetfulness leads to broken commitments, forgotten debts (even a penny must be recorded), and lost opportunities for mitzvot. He advises creating systems/reminders (notes, ledgers) to compensate, avoiding borrowing if forgetfulness is chronic to prevent embarrassment or transgression, and reviewing affairs diligently.Rabbi Wolbe emphasizes forgetting good deeds (to avoid arrogance) while remembering sins (to repent), and forgetting wrongs done to us (to forgive) while recalling our own harms to seek forgiveness. He stresses constant remembrance of Hashem's presence (like a king holding a Torah scroll) and using forgetfulness positively—forgetting worldly distractions during prayer to connect simply with Hashem. The chapter concludes that mitzvot are lights removing darkness; forgetting them wastes chances to illuminate the world. True greatness comes from striving for more mitzvot, not resting on past achievements.Recorded at TORCH Centre in the Levin Family Studios (B) to a live audience on June 9, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on December 30, 2025_____________This series on Orchos Tzadikim/Ways of the Righteous is produced in partnership with Hachzek.Join the revolution of daily Mussar study at hachzek.com.We are using the Treasure of Life edition of the Orchos Tzadikkim (Published by Feldheim)_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/jewish-inspiration-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1476610783Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4r0KfjMzmCNQbiNaZBCSU7) to stay inspired!

Caring for a parent with dementia is one of the most challenging experiences a person can face. What happens when that aging parent is also a difficult person? This adds a heavy layer to an already complex situation. Furthermore, how do you handle a difficult personality when their memory is failing? The physical and emotional toll can be immense. In addition, caregivers often feel isolated and alone. They struggle with their own grief and exhaustion. Meanwhile, they are asked to provide constant care for a particularly difficult loved one. We explore this unique caregiving challenge. This episode dives into one caregiver's raw and honest story. He found a path forward. Ultimately, his journey shows that finding peace is possible, even in the most challenging circumstances.

In this powerful Thinking Talmudist episode on Gittin 55b, Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe explores the Talmud's explanation for the destruction of the Second Temple and Jerusalem: three tragic incidents rooted in people failing to consider consequences ("hardening the heart"). The primary story involves Kamtza and Bar Kamtza—a host mistakenly invites his enemy Bar Kamtza to a banquet, then publicly humiliates and ejects him despite offers to pay for the entire feast. The silent rabbis' inaction emboldens Bar Kamtza to slander the Jews to Caesar, leading to war and destruction.Rabbi Wolbe highlights the "wrongful humility" of Rabbi Zechariah ben Avkulas, who blocks both offering Caesar's blemished calf (fearing it sets a precedent) and killing Bar Kamtza (fearing misperception of penalty)—prioritizing technicalities over saving lives and the Temple. Parallel stories (rooster/hen destroying Tur Malka; carriage shaft destroying Betar) underscore senseless hatred and violence among Jews enabling Roman victory.Themes include: actions have reactions ("play stupid games, win stupid prizes"); silence in face of injustice is complicity; Jewish strength lies in words/persuasion, not violence; and baseless hatred (sinat chinam) remains the core reason for ongoing exile—urging self-reflection to merit redemption._____________The Thinking Talmudist Podcast shares select teachings of Talmud in a fresh, insightful and meaningful way. Many claim that they cannot learn Talmud because it is in ancient Aramaic or the concepts are too difficult. Well, no more excuses. In this podcast you will experience the refreshing and eye-opening teachings while gaining an amazing appreciation for the divine wisdom of the Torah and the depths of the Talmud._____________This Podcast Series is Generously Underwritten by David & Susan MarbinRecorded at TORCH Meyerland in the Levin Family Studios to a live audience on December 12, 2025, in Houston, Texas.Released as Podcast on December 30, 2025_____________Listen, Subscribe & Share: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/thinking-talmudist-podcast-rabbi-aryeh-wolbe/id1648951154Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0cZ7q9bGYSBYSPQfJvwgzmShare your questions at aw@torchweb.org or visit torchweb.org for more Torah content._____________About the Host:Rabbi Aryeh Wolbe, Director of TORCH in Houston, brings decades of Torah scholarship to guide listeners in applying Jewish wisdom to daily life.

The secret to success is learning to hear God's voice. Deep down, you must believe that God is speaking to you and wants to speak to you. The devil's voice should sound like a stranger to you, not familiar, and the Lord's voice should sound like your shepherd. Hearing the Lord's voice is not all-knowing on our part. It starts with a willingness to trust the leading of His voice, not knowing the outcome, but knowing that it will be good.

In this conversation, Lantz Howard sits down with Mark Moore, pastor, teacher, and author of Core 52 , Quest 52, Wisdom 52, and more to explore why biblical wisdom isn't information to master—but formation to live into.Together, they unpack the difference between knowledge and wisdom, why so many leaders are spiritually informed yet inwardly exhausted, and how a slow, intentional engagement with Scripture can stabilize the soul in a distracted, accelerated world.Mark shares insights from decades of teaching and pastoring, emphasizing the power of weekly rhythms, long obedience, and letting God's Word shape not just beliefs—but desires, decisions, and leadership presence.This episode is a call back to depth over hustle, formation over performance, and wisdom that actually holds when life and leadership get heavy.Perfect for leaders, husbands, pastors, and high-capacity men who want more than quick inspiration—they want lives that are rooted, resilient, and whole.Coaching that aligns identity, marriage, and vocation for extraordinary success. www.lantzhoward.com
Have you ever felt completely uninspired by something you were once so excited about? In this spontaneous episode, I'm sharing an important message about the natural seasons we all experience—and why feeling "blah" might actually be pointing you toward your next level.I'm also inviting you to join the Frequency SHIFT Collective, a new membership where we tune into the natural rhythm of the cosmos through True Sidereal Human Design transits, the 64 Genius Archetypes, and the Full & New Moon cycles every month.The Message: You Have SeasonsIt's completely normal to feel excited one moment and uninspired the next. That doesn't mean you're doing the wrong thing.What if the "blah" feeling is showing you:It's time to recalibrate and pauseSomething is in the way of your zone of geniusYou're giving energy to your "zone of excellence" (things you're good at) instead of your zone of genius (things that feel effortless)My Story: Four Months of Feeling "Blah"This past summer, I felt uninspired for about four months. I even had thoughts about closing my business. But when I got honest, I realized I was overcommitted to things that felt safe and created belonging - but weren't my zone of genius.Once I let go of those things (many rooted in people-pleasing), everything shifted. I found new inspiration, aligned systems to support my mission and the spark came back. The next level of excitement always comes when we embrace the plateau instead of running from it.The Wisdom of PlateausJust like nature and the stock market—we have ups and downs. Nothing grows in a straight line.When we make rush decisions during the "down" moments, we miss the opportunity for the next uplevel. The more we can embrace the uncomfortable feelings and find safety within ourselves, the more we open to growth and expansion.Instead of panicking when you feel stuck, get curious... The plateau has a message for you. There's gold hidden in that phase. Don't resist it, lean in...Join the Frequency SHIFT CollectiveThis new membership is about shifting your frequency into pure authenticity by tuning into the rhythm of nature as we see it in the skyWhat we follow:Sun & Earth transits every 5-6 days (the "Genius Coins", my synthesis of Human Design gates and Gene Keys)New Moon & Full Moon in their actual constellations (True Sidereal)What you get:Complete 64 Genius Archetypes booklet (immediate access)Audio recordings for each transit (released every 5-6 days)2 live calls per month for deeper exploration and supportA slow, natural rhythm—no overwhelm, no catching upOver one year, we explore each Genius Coin twice (from both perspectives)The approach:Feminine, effortless manifestation (not ego-driven goal setting)Following cosmic energies to clarify what your heart truly wants and take action on itEmbracing your challenges as gateways to your geniusNo bypassing—we honor uncomfortable emotions & triggers as part of authenticityJoin the Frequency SHIFT Collective: https://analenafuchs.com/the-frequency-shift-collectiveTrust your seasons.
