Podcasts about Word of the year

This week, Christina and Brittany are having one of those honest, unfiltered conversations. The kind where you talk about what's actually happening in your body… how aging really feels… and why health can't sit at the bottom of the priority list anymore. They dive into inflammation and how it quietly impacts everything from energy to long-term disease, the growing conversation around peptides and recovery, and the reality of navigating wellness in a world where “nothing feels real anymore.” This episode is about taking your health seriously. About discipline. About gratitude. About choosing to live in a way that doesn't leave you with regret. If you're building a life, a career, a family — none of it works if your health falls apart. This is real talk on movement, mindset, nutrition, recovery, and what it means to age with intention. We don't shy away from the skepticism. We don't pretend we have it all figured out. But we do believe this: Health is non-negotiable.

Every year, I choose a word of the year to guide how I show up in my business and my life. Last year, my word was Freedom — and it shaped how I made decisions around visibility, boundaries, and growth.This year, my word is Owning It. And that shift helped me realize something important: freedom isn't just about having more time or flexibility — it's about having the confidence to take up space and trust your voice.In this episode, I share:• How I choose my word of the year• What “Owning It” really means (and what it doesn't)• How this mindset shift affects confidence and visibility• Why so many small business owners want freedom but struggle with self-trust• How choosing a word of the year can guide your business and personal growthThis episode is especially for small business owners, female founders, Etsy sellers, and Shopify store owners who want to be more visible without burning out or pretending to be someone they're not.As a #1 small business PR expert and coach, I see every day how fear of being seen holds founders back — and why owning your story matters just as much as getting featured.If you've been feeling ready to show up more boldly — in your messaging, your pricing, or your story — this episode will help you reflect on what you want to own this year.

I left you hangin' in the last episode as to what the mindset shift is that you must have so that you can be a productive person. It's Discipline. And discipline is my word for this year. "Discipline is the bridge between goals and accomplishment" - Jim Rohn What is the definition? -Some of you may have a negative knee jerk reaction to the word discipline. Ready for me to reframe discipline in you mind? It is… -The act of gaining control with obedience and order (like holding yourself accountable to picking up after yourself.) -Having behavior in accordance with rules (like the Sunday Basket®) -Self Control - you can struggle or you can remove items from your environment that have you have effortless self control can't eat a cookie you didn't buy and bring home.  -An activity you engage in regularly to train or inspire ones self. -A subject taught or field of study (like the study of home management.) -An institution If you are listening to the podcast, odds are that you are learning discipline in the area of home management. But you do not get the results from the work you do not do. You must do the work.  What Does Discipline Look Like?  Setting and achieving goals is changing your own actions and disciplining yourself to being the person who has already achieved what you want to achieve. So I gave the example of me working out. I used to want our whole family to get healthy and work out together. Not gonna happen. So I have decided to do it for myself to achieve the goals I have for myself. And along with working out, I have changed the way I eat. My husband would prefer a meal that "makes sense and 'matches.'" A lady at work introduced us all to ingredient eating. Basically you cook the protein, pull out all kinds of things from the fridge like fruits and veggies to compliment the protein and eat what you like.  This would be my preference! So I workout and eat like the person who has already accomplished my goal and support my family in other areas rather than meal preparation and working out with them.  And the more you do those things, the easier that discipline is. If you ask a productive person how they became that way, they may not be able to tell you. Because they disciplined themselves in one area till it got easier and then moved on to another area.  And know, once you get a system in place, it will change. It will change with your family and phase of life you are in.  Time Blocks = Confidence So you see why you need to be disciplined in the time blocks if you want to be a productive person. Time blocks are just these guard rails to keep you on track and systematize your time and responsibilities. Discipline yourself to do the work and it will become easier. I shared some stats to help you see this is not a "you thing."  This is a field of study, a discipline, to learn how to train ourselves, bring control to, and impose order in our housework and home management. Discipline yourself to process your Sunday Basket® so that you gain confidence in this area. Discipline yourself to start watching the videos to the programs you have purchased. Do you know people who are organized are perceived as more confident? And you know what else? People feel more confident when they are organized! Dave Ramsey said "You can wander into debt but you can't wander out of it." And the same is for disorganization you can wander into but you can't wander out of it…you must discipline yourself. You must have a mindset shift.  EPISODE RESOURCES: The Sunday Basket® The Productive Home Solution Sign Up for the Organize 365® Newsletter  Did you enjoy this episode?

The new year is upon us, and most people associate the turning of the calendar page with CHANGE. Whether it's losing a little weight, reading their Bibles more, or being more present with their families, the world looks to the calendar as the starting point for change. But what if change came a different way? What if outer changes were unrelated to our calendars, and came exclusively because of our inner transformation? Today, Pastor Sam Cabra announces the 2026 word of the year for Reunion, "Renewing the Mind." Renewal often comes in seasons, and knowing which season we are in is critically important. Expecting the right thing in the wrong season leads to bitterness, disappointment, and pain. But as we walk in step with God, He continually reveals the times and seasons we are currently in. By faith in the power of agreement, we step into the season of Renewing our Minds in 2026.Thank you for partnering with Reunion Hawaii! To GIVE online, please visit our website at www.reunionhawaii.comMake sure to LIKE and SUBSCRIBE to this podcast!You can follow us on Instagram: www.instagram.com/reunionhawaii@reunionhawaii

Given how much we're talking about AI right now, it's no surprise that AI-related words featured prominently in this year's word of the year vote.

What if one word could change how your people show up this year? Most business owners say developing their team matters, but very few do it with real intention. In this episode, Shawn "Dickie" Stinson and Brandon "Donny" Gray challenge owners to slow down and ask a powerful question. Are you actually developing people on purpose or just hoping growth happens over time? The conversation centers around choosing a Word of the Year and why this simple practice can become a leadership filter for decisions, culture, and people development. Dickie and Donny break down how intentional language creates clarity, alignment, and momentum inside a business. You will hear why drifting leaders create drifting teams and how a clear word helps owners lead with focus instead of reacting to the noise of the day. This episode is a wake up call for owners who want better people outcomes without burning themselves out. Here is what you will take away: ✅ Why a Word of the Year sharpens leadership clarity ✅ How intentional development builds stronger teams ✅ The cost of passive leadership on culture and performance ✅ Practical ways to lead people on purpose every day Dickie and Donny bring practical insight that challenges owners to stop managing symptoms and start developing people with vision and intention. Are you working IN your business or ON your business? Do you have all of the foundational elements that will liberate you from the business chaos?

Last week, we covered the Word of the Year for 2026. But HOW do we navigate being open? The barrier that stands between you and the opportunity God wants for you is courageous. How dare it stand in between? The well-known story of David and Goliath shows us that barriers we allow in our own lives are not a new concept, and there IS a way to overcome them! What are your barriers? How are you going to destroy it so it stops destroying the opportunity for God to open the door?    PRE-ORDER HOLY GHOSTED HERE! https://www.amazon.com/Holy-Ghosted-Teaches-Surviving-Spiritual/dp/1636415431    Monologue: Autumn chronicles a recent instance when the Miles' car ran out of gas and the revelation of the fruit of her and Eddie's parenting.   Message: Autumn encourages believers to stand up against the barriers that keep them from allowing God to open doors in their lives instead of letting those barriers keep God from opening those doors.    Question: “How do I know if it's God saying no or my own self getting in the way?

Visit today's blog post here. Last year, I made one of the biggest changes in my business - retiring a 5+ year mastermind and launching something completely new. But alongside that business shift, I've also been making personal changes that reflect where I believe the next decade is headed. In this episode, I talk about slowing down, adapting in a world of AI and constant noise, and why protecting your creative edge is essential if you want your business to last. I'm sharing what I've changed, what I'm noticing, and why I truly believe stillness, mindfulness, and slowing down are strategic. –– Connect with Anna on Instagram: @heartcentered.entrepreneur

Every year I choose a “word of the year.” It's usually a single word that serves as a spiritual north star rather than a list of resolutions. After walking through seasons of discipline and discernment, my word for this year is "available."In this episode, I reflect on the biblical pattern we see in Moses, Isaiah, and others—people who weren't always ready, confident, or qualified—but who made themselves available to God. Availability, not readiness, is often the posture God uses most.This is a short devotional on what it means to live with open hands, to stop asking “Am I ready?” and start asking “Am I willing?”—and why God has never been limited by our readiness, but consistently works through our availability.

In this short episode, I'm inviting you to pick one word to lead + anchor your year. If this word were a seed you were planting this year, what would you choose to plant?A word that feels like your future self.A word that anchors you when things feel shaky. Press play to start planting intentional seeds this year. This is how you create a year that moves with you, not against you.⁠⁠Ready to upgrade your identity + reality? Get the SELF-TALK MENU HERE⁠

Happy New Year beautiful souls! Welcome back to the podcast. To best set the tone of each year, I always choose a word or theme for that year and I want to share my Word of the Year for 2026 with you and that word is Expand.   True expansion begins with mindset, allowing new possibilities without pressure or perfection. Being open to opportunity means choosing curiosity over control and trusting yourself as things unfold. Expansion is about growing wisdom and alignment, not just results or productivity. You're invited to reflect on where you're being called to expand gently, authentically, and on your own terms.   Work with Lucy:  https://www.lucyliucoaching.com/freeconsult   Connect with Lucy: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mslucyliu Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/mslucyliu Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/mslucyliu LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mslucyliu TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mslucyliu YouTube: https://youtube.com/@mslucyliu Website: https://www.lucyliucoaching.com Podcast: https://www.lucyliucoaching.com/podcast   Wanna double your confidence in 30 seconds?  Get the ultimate secret here: http://www.confidentandepic.com

Send us a textIn today's episode of The Daily Nothings Podcast, we're sharing our word of the year and talking all about why choosing a word can be a more meaningful alternative to traditional New Year's resolutions.We walk through how we chose our word, what it represents for this season of life, and how we're using it as a guide for intention setting, personal growth, and everyday decision-making throughout the year. We also talk about letting go of pressure, setting realistic goals, and creating space for growth that feels sustainable and grounded.If you're searching for your own word of the year, feeling stuck with New Year goal setting, or craving a slower, more thoughtful way to approach personal development, this episode will help you reflect, reset, and move forward with clarity.Whether you're setting intentions for the new year, reevaluating your goals, or simply looking for encouragement as you step into this season, we hope this conversation meets you right where you are.BOMA-USA: For Billings Method Fertility Tracking courses, visit https://boma-usa.org/en/fertility-101/ and use code DAILYNOTHINGS20 for the full course.

Step into day 2 of the new year, the moment when New Year motivation can fade and real life returns. In this guided meditation and ceremony, you'll choose a powerful Word of the Year and turn it into a practical, heart-centered plan you can actually live. You'll learn the psychology of fresh starts (why New Year's creates a real "reset" in the brain), how values-aligned intentions lead to deeper well-being, and why tiny "if–then" plans can make your new theme stick. You'll be guided through calming slow breathing, a candlelit "Bless the Word" ritual, and a comforting story that reframes success as devotion—not pressure. If you're craving a peaceful, grounded way to begin the year, this is your gentle next step: nurture your nervous system, nurture your values, and nurture the life you're growing—one small act at a time.
