How to Stop Self-Sabotage & Reclaim Your Power when Your Partner Won't Change -with Dr. Ray Doktor In this episode, Lora Cheadle welcomes Dr. Ray Doktor, a life and relationship coach, to explore the deep emotional work required to heal from betrayal. Together, they unpack why men often struggle to express emotions, how women can stop waiting for a partner's “potential,” and the self-sabotaging patterns that keep people stuck. Top 3 Takeaways: Healing Starts with You – Infidelity shakes your sense of self, but recovery begins by turning inward and rebuilding your relationship with yourself. Wishful Thinking vs. Reality – Many women hold onto their partner's “potential,” but true healing comes from accepting who they really are, not who you wish they could be. Men and Emotional Avoidance – Many men avoid deep emotional work, opting for quick-fix pleasure (cheating, drinking, distractions) over true healing. A thriving relationship requires both partners to grow together. Bio: Ray Doktor, Psy. D. works as a modern day relationship & rapid breakthrough coach. For the last 25 years, he's successfully helped over 6k clients breakthrough limited beliefs and challenges to have better relationships, improved family life, and more success! A pioneer in the field of bridging psychology and Eastern philosophies to technologies, science, and spirituality, Dr. Ray has conducted workshops in the United States, Netherlands, Brazil, and England. He shared the same stages with Marianne Williamson, Bruce Lipton, John Gray, and Eckhart Tolle. Dr. Ray received his doctoral degree in clinical psychology, earned a master's degree in counseling psychology, and an undergraduate degree in human behavior. Other advanced training includes: hypnotherapy, Gestalt therapy, guided imagery, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Neuro-linguistic programming (NLP), qigong, PSYCH-K, meditation, sound healing, and somatic experience. His most profound mentorship involved traveling the world and assisting renowned psychologist Dr. Morris Netherton–a pioneer in his field and colleague of Fritz Perls, Carl Rogers, and Norm Shealy.

Read along to practice your English and to learn the English phrases WISHFUL THINKING and TO THINK BIGIn this English lesson, I wanted to help you learn the English phrase wishful thinking. Wishful thinking is when you think positively about something, but it probably isn't going to go the way you think it will. Here's a great example. If you don't study and you have an English test in a few months and you just think, ah, I'll just watch YouTube videos and I'll pass that English test, that's probably wishful thinking. You probably aren't doing enough. You're thinking that you're going to pass the test by just watching YouTube videos, but you should really be practicing your speaking and your writing and your reading and all of that stuff as well. So it might be wishful thinking. So hopefully you understand. It means you think a positive thought about something, but you're probably wrong.WANT FREE ENGLISH LESSONS? GO TO YOUTUBE AND SEARCH, "BOB THE CANADIAN"If you enjoy these lessons please consider supporting me at: http://www.patreon.com/bobthecanadianThe other phrase I wanted to teach you today is to think big. So sometimes at work someone will have an idea for a small change and then someone will say, why don't we think big? Instead of doing the small change, why don't we do something even bigger? So an example would be maybe a teacher says, my classroom isn't big enough so I'm going to remove a couple desks. And someone else might say, hey, why don't we think big? Why don't we instead spend millions of dollars and build you a bigger classroom? That's something that doesn't usually happen, but it could.Anyways to review. Wishful thinking is when you hope for something positive, but it probably won't happen. You're just being really, really optimistic. And to think big is to dream bigger than you would to solve maybe a small problem.But hey, let's look at a comment from a previous video. I wasn't going to talk about the weather today, but it's minus 15 right now, minus 21 with the wind chill. It's about, it's about as cold as it gets. This comment is from. Let's see here. Let me get my glove back on. Paper and gloves are a bit of a challenge. This comment is from Tolik. Thank you for the lesson, Bob. You have really nice boots. I like them. Have a nice day and I said I love my boots. I hope they last forever. But alas, I think that is wishful thinking.So yeah, I've had these boots for a while. I really, really like them. They are really, really nice boots. But to think that they might last forever I think would be wishful thinking. So a positive thought for something that most likely won't happen. So Tolik thank you for that comment, let me see If I can get this off here.Yeah, I wasn't going to talk about the weather, so I'll try... I'll try not to do that at all. So, anyways, I had a beautiful family day Monday. Yesterday for me. Two days ago for you. I think that is just the best holiday. My kids and I and Jen, we actually went and we played some badminton at the school. We went out to a little cafe afterwards and had a little treat. Uh, we spent some time as a family. We watched the TV show Jeopardy.I'm not sure if you know what that show is, but Jeopardy is a trivia show, a quiz show where they ask questions and then the contestants have to try and answer them. By the way, Jeopardy is probably a great way to learn English if you could find a way to watch that show. Uh, so we had supper together. Uh, we watched Jeopardy together. It was a fun evening, and it's fun just to have a day where you decide to spend the day with your family. So I really enjoyed it.Right now, though, I'm going to go back inside. It's a little too cold this morning for me, and I think I need to go warm up. ThanSupport the show

Retirement is often viewed as a golden era of relaxation and enjoyment, but it can also be riddled with misconceptions that can lead to financial pitfalls. Many people fall into the trap of wishful thinking when it comes to what they expect will happen in retirement, but a successful retirement isn't built on hope and assumptions. In this episode, Eric sheds light on these common myths and offers practical strategies for effective retirement planning. Here's some of what we discuss in this episode: Can retirees live off the interest generated by their investments in retirement? Many people think they'll be in a lower tax bracket in retirement but is that reality? Once you stop working, many expenses will no longer be necessary, but does that mean you'll end up spending less overall in retirement? People are often shocked at the cost of healthcare when it comes out of their own pocket.   Get in touch with the Peterson Financial team: https://petersonfg.com/

Learn how to balance childlike innocence and wonder whilst avoiding naivety, especially in relationships, setting boundaries, and pursuing dreams.The Inner Child is a part of our psyche that embodies innocence, curiosity, and a sense of wonder. It helps us engage with the world openly and optimistically. However, it's crucial to differentiate between this healthy openness and wishful thinking, which can lead to unrealistic expectations and emotional turmoil.This episode explores why naivety often stems from the Inner Child wanting things its way without considering reality. This desire for control can manifest as perfectionism, where we expect everything to be perfect — ourselves, others, and outcomes.You'll learn how not to suppress your Inner Child but to guide it with wisdom, so you can enjoy the richness and opportunities in life with a sense of groundedness and emotional stability.With your hosts, David James Lees (ordained Taoist monk, emotional and spiritual health teacher) and Alexandra Lees (mindset and business coach).Discover our online consultations, events and shop: https://www.wuweiwisdom.comSubscribe to David's Journal: https://davidjameslees.substack.com/Other related teachings on our YouTube channel that will help you:Our INNER CHILD PLAYLIST  https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL9NQ_PWX4zICGLRS1b7q1HSJhZRash5qqWhy Am I Unsatisfied With Life?

Welcome to my Memorizing Tarot Card Audio Podcast, where I discuss strategies to learn and memorize tarot cards.  Today's episode is your three-minute lesson on the Reversal of the Seven of Cups.Why an audio course=================The purpose of this audio podcast is to help reinforce key messages by audio, while you clean, exercise, mow your lawn, or drive great distances. There is no charge for this content, and it is intended to provide short, snappy microlearning to help beginners keep practicing and reinforcing the learning. The best way to learn tarot cards, is to keep practicing working with the cards.Rider Waite Tarot Card Deck=======================I learned how to read cards on the Rider Waite Tarot Deck and the instructor I had said its easiest to have everyone on the same deck when explaining the symbolism. With time, I was able to transfer that knowledge to other decks. If you are a beginner at learning tarot, below are some links to the Rider Waite Tarot Deck to follow along if you need a set of cards. I earn a small referral commission from these links from Amazon.Rider Waite Tarot Deck - USA Link: https://amzn.to/3TW5y0iRider Waite Tarot Deck - Canada Link: https://amzn.to/3YcTwlRRider Waite Tarot Deck - UK Link: https://amzn.to/4eyRUIMRider Waite Tarot Deck - Australia link: https://amzn.to/3ZRB1EwAbout Carrie and  @QuickLearnQuests ===============================I have been reading tarot cards for 30 years for fun. I took a two and a half day course, and I was so excited to be able to take the mystery out of getting readings done for myself, and to be able to do them myself. We also have social media channels, TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube and all major podcast distributors such as Spotify, Apple, Audible and many others under the handle @quickLearnQuests. I am focusing mostly on my podcasts and YouTube at the moment, but I will expand into more social media more consistently when I find my feet.  Here is the transcript:Welcome to the "Memorizing Tarot Cards" podcast, your three-minute lessons on learning and memorizing each card using symbolism. I use the Rider Waite Tarot if you would like to view the card while you listen using your own Tarot card deck or a computer. Today, we're exploring the Seven of Cups, focusing on reversals. First, let's start with the divine meaning of the card and then the meaning when reversed.The Seven of Cups upright is often associated with choices, daydreams, and illusions. It presents us with many possibilities, some realistic and some fantastical, which can lead to confusion or indecision.When reversed, it indicates a shift toward clarity. You may have been overwhelmed by too many options or distracted by unrealistic desires, but now you're starting to focus on what truly matters. The reversed Seven of Cups suggests that you're moving away from wishful thinking and taking practical steps to turn your dreams into reality. It's a card of grounding, where illusions fade, and you're able to make clear, informed decisions. When the Seven of Cups reversed appears in a reading, it's often a sign that it's time to get practical and focused. If you've been scattered or overwhelmed by too many options, this card suggests that you can now narrow your choices and commit to a specific path. It encourages you to take decisive action rather than remaining stuck in indecision. This card may also indicate that you've gained clarity on a previously confusing or deceptive situation. Whether in relationships, work, or personal growth, the Seven of Cups reversed suggests that you see things as they truly are and are ready to move forward confidently. For example, my reversed Seven of Cups moment was closing down my retail business, Carrie's Closet.  I ran it for six years, and even though I had a lot of fun and made some money, I needed my full-time job to support the ebbs and flows throughout the year.  It never really stood on its own year-round.  Deciding to close it down so that I could reduce my load to one full-time job instead of two, is where my wishful thinking of the Seven of Cups upright finally reversed, and I had to look at things practically.  What I was doing was not sustainable for any level of my well-being.This card reminds us that clarity and focus are vital to making empowered decisions and moving forward.Remember, the key to mastering tarot is practice. As you continue to listen to these three-minute lessons, the cards' symbolism will become more ingrained in your memory. Thank you for tuning in. Keep practicing and join us for more three-minute lessons to memorize more cards. Your dedication will surely pay off. #sevenofcups #memorize #suitofcups #suitofcups #learn #learning #tarot #cards #riderwaite #tarotdeck #ridertarotdeck #riderwaite #suitocups #cups #minorarcana #learntarot #learntarotcards #learntarotreading #learntarotpodcast #memorizetarot #audiocourse #audio #podcast

"Spin Room" - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spin_room 2. “There is perhaps nothing that so marks us as human as the gift of speech…By speaking, we can reveal the hiddenness of thought, we can express the subtlest as well as the most devastating of emotions, we can heal, we can make poems, we can pray. All of which is to say we can speak truth—the truth of what it is to be ourselves, to be with each other, to be in the world—and such speaking as that is close to what being human is all about. What makes lying an evil is not only that the world is deceived by it, but that we are dehumanized by it.” -Frederick Buechner, "Wishful Thinking" 3. "The essence of swearing that Jesus targets here is about invoking something or someone else, especially God, to make your own words more significant or weighty. The aim is to impress others with your seriousness or piety so that you get what you want. It's a device of manipulation designed to override the judgment or input of others in order to possess them for our purposes. It's manipulation, or, as we say in our culture, “spin.” And Jesus says it's evil. Instead of loving and honoring others with truthfulness, the intent is to get one's way by verbal manipulation of the thoughts and choices of others.” -Dallas Willard, "The Divine Conspiracy" 4. “The tendency to lie is absolutely natural in the child, and if not checked, leads to deeper and deeper evil. That children lie, steal, cheat, and want to make reality what they want it to be is routinely observable. The fact that some people grow into honest adults is absolutely remarkable.” -M. Scott Peck, "People of the Lie" 5. "Just as forgiveness is the one way to be free from your painful past, so promising is the only way to be free from your unpredictable future. But it is not only that I know myself in the mirror of my promises. My people, the ones who belong to me, who depend on me, also know me by the promises I have made. What I promise is what I am and will be to them. Only if they really know what I am can they live with me in trust. They know me in the important way, not by reading my therapist's notes, but by knowing my power to keep promises.” -Lewis Smedes, "Controlling The Unpredictable"

Hope is a transformative force, capable of providing comfort and strength amidst life's challenges. The Bible says much about the impact of hope on the heart, shedding light on the intricate relationship between hope and the human spirit. So today I invite you deep into the nuances from Scripture in French to spark fresh hope, and reignite embers of disappointed hope for you. French offers subtle yet profound differences between two words both translated “hope” in English: "Espoir" and "Esperance." "éspoir" is more like wishful thinking, while "espérance" is all about rock-solid promises. It's a bit like the difference between fleeting daydreams and unwavering faith – and it's deeply rooted in biblical truth. Scripture really hones in on the truth of "espérance," painting a vivid picture of the steadfast assurance and unwavering faith it embodies in the Christian faith. This isn't just about fleeting hope; it's about rock-solid confidence in the promise of eternal salvation. Scripture gives us context as it explores how hope coexists with fear and uncertainty. It's an inspiring call to rise above fleeting "éspoir" and embrace the unshakable hope that comes with faith in Christ. We explore how the use of "éspoir" and "espérance" shifts between the Old and New Testaments. It's like peeling back layers of a story – and it all ties into concealed and revealed hope throughout Christ. And so, I invite you to reflect on your own hope, encouraging you to consider the transformation  from "Espoir" to "Esperance" made possible through Christ.  Together, let's unveil the cultural and biblical significance of "Esperance," with its prevalence in the New Testament and its profound certainty and confidence in Christ.

The stakes of a second Trump term are very clear to Ben Rhodes, who served for eight years as one of Barack Obama's closest advisers on national security. “Trump's blend of strongman nationalism and isolationism could create a permission structure for aggression,” Rhodes writes in a new piece for Foreign Affairs.  Today, Rhodes is a co-host of the podcast Pod Save the World and the author of After the Fall: Being American in the World We've Made. From 2009 to 2017, he served as U.S. deputy national security adviser for strategic communications and speechwriting in the Obama administration. Rhodes is as clear-eyed about the achievements and failures of President Joe Biden's foreign policy. If Biden does win a second term, Rhodes argues, he should set out a new strategy—one that takes the world as it is, not as Washington wishes it would be.
