Communion, Healing & Desire

This week, Jake and Bob reflect on a few topics that were discussed during a recent "Holy Desire" Priest's retreat with the JPII Healing Center. They discuss the connection between communion with God and the removal of pain, how woundedness redirects good desires, and why coping strategies are not usually virtuous. Jake and Bob also answer a few questions received from priests at the retreat, such as—Am I using wounds as an excuse for sin? What is the difference between soul ties and enmeshment? And should I share my wounds with my parents?   Key Points: Healing is best understood as an ongoing encounter with God's love that restores communion and is not simply the removal of pain. Pain relief can be a fruit of healing, but it should never become the primary goal over intimacy with God. Broken communion is the reason we experience pain. Wounds often lead us to develop maladaptive responses that we mistakenly elevate into "virtues." Holy desires naturally draw us toward love and communion with God and others. When wounds and vows press down on holy desires, those desires often emerge sideways as disordered desires. Disordered desires are not evil at their core but are distorted expressions of something originally good. Enmeshment reflects a lack of healthy differentiation and often develops within family systems. Soul ties are distorted bonds that form through sin, wounds, or misplaced dependency. Learning to recognize the good desire beneath another's behavior transforms how we relate to them. Love grows when we respond to a person's holy desire rather than reacting to their maladaptive behavior. Discernment, timing, and freedom of heart are essential when considering sharing one's wounds with parents.   Resources: Principles of Catholic Theology by Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger Holy Desire Workbook (In the dropdown menu select the "Workbook" as the type) Rick and Dick Hoyt Video Deadly Wounds and Holy Desires Chart   Chapters: 00:00 Introduction 06:34 What does "I Experienced Healing" Mean? 13:40 Can the Way I Cope with a Wound Actually be a Virtue? 18:42 How are Disordered Desires Formed? 29:36 How Do I Find the Holy Desire Behind My Sin? 35:55 Am I Treating Woundedness as an Excuse for Sin? 42:54 What is the Difference Between a Soul Tie and Enmeshment? 51:07 Should I Share My Wounds with My Parents?   Connect with Restore the Glory:  Instagram: @restoretheglorypodcast  Twitter: @RestoreGloryPod Facebook: Restore the Glory Podcast   Never miss out on an episode by hitting the subscribe button right now!

Often, apps begin with noble intentions of “connection” or “education.” While they promise to be different, they inevitably resort to classic tactics for maximum engagement: streaks, coins, leaderboards, FOMO, and notifications. In this episode, Kelly uncovers this trend using Duolingo and Zigazoo as examples. This trend of app devolution is important for parents to understand.

Your butt is not about aesthetics. It is a longevity organ that directly impacts metabolism, brain optimization, resilience, and how long you stay strong as you age. In this episode, you'll learn why strength training and protein intake matter more than body fat percentage, how mitochondria drive human performance and recovery, and why building muscle protects your brain, stabilizes mood, and supports long-term longevity. This conversation reframes biohacking, anti-aging, and health from weight loss to muscle span, the length of time you live with strong, functional skeletal muscle. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey sits down with Gabrielle Lyon, an accomplished physician and New York Times bestselling author of Forever Strong: A New, Science-Based Strategy for Aging Well, and author of the upcoming The Forever Strong Playbook, releasing January 27, 2026. Dr. Lyon pioneered the Muscle-Centric Medicine® approach, which places muscle at the center of disease prevention, metabolic health, and true vitality. She has trained elite athletes, military operatives, and public figures, while also living this philosophy at home as a mother of two with her husband, a retired Navy SEAL. Together, they break down why intermuscular fat may matter more than body fat percentage, how skeletal muscle drives insulin sensitivity and lowers inflammation, and why becoming physically stronger improves brain function and neuroplasticity. They explore protein needs across the lifespan, fasting, ketosis, carnivore-style nutrition, supplements, sleep optimization, and the real tradeoffs of GLP-1 drugs, including the risk of accelerated muscle loss if strength and protein are neglected. The conversation also covers mindset, hormesis, and why physical resilience creates emotional regulation and clearer decision-making in a world increasingly shaped by AI and convenience. This episode is essential listening for anyone serious about biohacking, hacking human performance, longevity, mitochondria, neuroplasticity, nootropics, metabolism, functional medicine, anti-aging strategies, supplements, and living Smarter Not Harder, ideally with a cup of Danger Coffee in hand. You'll Learn: • Why your glutes and skeletal muscle are critical drivers of longevity and brain health • Why intermuscular fat can matter more than body fat percentage for metabolic dysfunction • How strength training improves neuroplasticity, cognition, and emotional resilience • Why protein needs increase with age and why outdated limits can hold you back • What GLP-1 drugs get right, where they fail, and how to protect muscle span • Why progressive stimulus beats lifting heavy for long-term strength and injury prevention • How sleep optimization and recovery support mitochondria and human performance • How building muscle creates clarity, resilience, and better decision-making Dave Asprey is a four time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking.

Let's talk about that moment every coach hits at some point — when nothing is selling. The launch flops. The offer lands with a thud. The inbox is quiet. And suddenly your brain starts telling some very convincing (and very dangerous) stories about what that means. In this episode of The Coaching Edge and the accompanying free Offer Diagnostic Worksheet (download HERE), I walk you through what to do before you panic, deep-six your offer, or decide you're “just not cut out for this” and call it quits. Because when nothing is selling, the problem is almost never that you're a bad coach — and believing that can send you straight into a spiral that's hard to climb out of. Instead, I share how I diagnose sales problems using my Business Compass model, how to identify what's actually broken in your sales chain, and what to focus on first so you can get things moving again — calmly, strategically, and without burning your business down. In this episode, I cover: The most dangerous assumption coaches make when sales are slow — and why it's almost never true Why “nothing is selling” is data, not a verdict on your ability as a coach The common (but misleading) fixes coaches jump to when they panic How to audit your business using the North, East, South, and West of the Business Compass How to tell whether you have a visibility problem, a trust problem, or an offer problem Why old-school conversations and direct outreach still work — especially when sales are slow What not to do when things feel quiet (even though it's tempting) If you've been questioning yourself, your offer, or your entire business because sales feel slow right now, this episode will help you step out of emotion and back into clarity — and give you a grounded way forward.

Traditional networking has always felt uncomfortable for many clinicians, and for those already experiencing burnout, it can feel downright exhausting. Forced small talk, performative professionalism, and transactional relationships only add to the emotional load healthcare providers are already carrying. In this episode, we cover an “anti-networking” approach inspired by Sahil Bloom and his book The 5 Types of Wealth. Rather than collecting contacts, this framework focuses on building genuine, value-aligned relationships that support long-term connection, career sustainability, and fulfillment. You'll learn four practical anti-networking principles: how to choose the right rooms, ask better questions, listen at a deeper level, and follow up in ways that feel authentic (not draining). Whether you're attending a conference like AAPA with fellow physician associates, meeting new team members, or exploring new career paths, these strategies help you build your social wealth without sacrificing your energy or values.

Join us today for Part 1 of this heartfelt episode of Widow 180 as I sit down with guest Courtney Pray Duke for an incredibly raw and honest conversation about sudden loss, the journey through early widowhood, and finding faith in the darkest moments.Episode Highlights:Becoming a widow at just 29, Courtney was left to raise their kids alone.What the immediate aftermath of loss feels like. How  "there's no way to plan for" that moment.Facing birthdays, Thanksgiving, and Christmas just weeks after Andrew's death. Courtney remembers her friend posting a note that read "just today" as a reminder to survive moment by moment.The struggle of parenting through personal heartbreak shines through: “Not only is your heart broken, but it's broken for your children on a whole other level. And that is probably the worst pain in the world.”Key Takeaways:The trauma of sudden loss creates a world that is both foreign and disorienting—there is no preparation, no handbook, and few words of comfort in those first hours and days.Honest conversations about how to talk to children about tragedy, and the unique pain of not being able to protect or fix their heartbreak, are central to the episode.Gratitude for the community, even in chaos.Tune into these first 35 minutes of our interview for a touching, authentic look at grief, faith, and the power of vulnerability during life's hardest seasons. This episode is filled with wisdom, empathy, and hope for anyone walking through loss or supporting someone who is.To be a guest on the podcast, email me! jen@widow180.comFind out about all of our Widow 180 Workbooks at https://www.widow180.com/workbooks Be sure to join our Facebook group, Widow 180 The Community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/312036956454927Also follow us on Insta: https://www.instagram.com/widow_180/Check us out on YouTube at Widow 180: The Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-DK_dl31qMilJ5cE6t9MVQFor more blog posts and resources go to www.widow180.comQuestions?

In today's episode, we're talking about something that doesn't get enough airtime in recovery — money. How eating disorders can shape the way you spend, save, restrict, or feel anxious around money. And how those patterns often stick around, even when food feels a bit more stable.We'll chat about why eating disorders and money control are so closely linked, how fear and scarcity can show up in spending habits, and why recovery isn't just about food — it's about safety, trust, and self-worth too. I'll also share some reflections from my own experience, because this is something I've had to unpick myself.If you've ever felt guilty spending money on food, support, or yourself, or noticed that financial control feels tied to your eating disorder, this episode will help you feel less alone. Let me know your thoughts!

This week, I'm helping you rethink goal-setting for 2026 by introducing a different kind of goal — one that makes your business more flexible, sustainable, and profitable. Most coaches set behaviour-based goals: • post 3x/week • hit $10K/month • grow the list by 1,000 • convert 60% of discovery calls But here's the truth: behaviour-based goals require perfection… and perfection is not a thing any of us are capable of maintaining. Instead, I want to teach you how to set feeling-based goals — goals that clarify how you want to feel in your business: confident, grounded, spacious, consistent, organized, aligned. These goals aren't fluffy. They're strategic. They are what actually move the needle in your business. When you feel more confident, you have more sales conversations. When you feel more grounded, your messaging becomes clearer. When you feel more organized, your systems improve — creating more capacity. When you feel more aligned, you show up consistently — which leads to more clients and more revenue. Feeling-based goals fuel the behaviours that drive results. In this episode, you'll learn: The difference between behaviour-based and feeling-based goals Why traditional goal-setting fails most coaches How I use feeling-based goals to run my own business 10 concrete examples of business goals reframed for 2026 Why feeling-based goals still lead to MORE clients, MORE revenue, and BETTER content How to set your own 2026 goals using my simple reflection system If you want 2026 to feel different — calmer, more confident, more grounded — this episode will give you the framework to build a business that actually supports that.

Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Teresa Edwards. Purpose of the Interview The interview aims to introduce Teresa Edwards’ book The Mirror Method: 12 Weeks to Stop Abandoning Yourself, a guided workbook designed to help individuals overcome people-pleasing tendencies, set boundaries, and prioritize their own needs without guilt. It focuses on personal empowerment, mental health, and rediscovering one’s authentic self. Key Takeaways People-Pleasing and Boundaries People-pleasing becomes harmful when you agree to things you don’t want to do, leading to stress and resentment. Setting boundaries is essential for self-respect and mental health. The Mirror Method A 12-week guided process to “unravel” harmful patterns and rediscover your true self. Emphasizes self-reflection, journaling, and gradual transformation at your own pace. Selfishness vs. Self-Care Edwards reframes “selfish” as a positive concept: prioritizing your health and happiness is necessary, not negative. You can’t be your best for others if you’re not your best for yourself. Health as a Wake-Up Call Stress is a silent killer; Teresa’s own health issues (high blood pressure) forced her to reevaluate her life. Happiness and well-being should not be age-limited—“You’re never too old to return to yourself.” Letting Go of Toxic Relationships Users often exploit people-pleasers; recognizing and removing such relationships is crucial. Fully committing to the Mirror Method means accepting hard truths and being okay with losing people who drain you. Therapy and Mental Health COVID accelerated acceptance of therapy in communities where it was previously stigmatized. Mental health is as important as physical health—“The mind is a muscle too.” Workbook Details Available on Amazon and at themirrormethodworkbook.com in print and downloadable formats. Exercises involve writing and self-reflection to confront truths and break patterns. Notable Quotes “Boundaries are key.” “Selfish is not a negative word—it’s perseverance of yourself.” “You can’t throw a party and be mad at your own party.” “Enough is enough—look in the mirror and say it.” “You’re never too old to return to yourself.” “Stress is that silent killer.” “Fully commit means accepting all those good, bad, or ugly moments—and being okay with letting go.” “The mind is a muscle too.” “Be okay with being okay.” #SHMS #STRAW #BESTSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Welcome to the first episode of 2026. I wanted to start the year with a conversation that really matters.Today we're talking about the belief that you might be “too old” to recover from an eating disorder. Maybe you've been struggling for years. Maybe decades. Maybe part of you wonders if this is just how life is now. If you've ever felt embarrassed for still struggling, or told yourself you should be over this by now, this episode is for you.We'll talk honestly about why this belief shows up, how age and time in an eating disorder don't take away your right to heal, and what recovery can actually look like later in life. It's not about doing recovery perfectly or starting from scratch. It's about choosing yourself, wherever you are, and allowing things to be different.You're not behind. You haven't missed your chance. And it's never too late to build a life that feels freer and more peaceful around food and your body.I'm really glad you're here, let's start 2026 with positive recovery vibes!Let me know your thoughts!

This week on The Coaching Edge, I'm digging into one of the most important — and most misunderstood — pieces of building a profitable coaching business: conversations. Not funnels. Not fancy sales pages. Not complicated campaigns. Conversations. Real ones. The kind that create connection… and then, eventually, clients. If you're someone who has always felt a little allergic to anything that resembles “traditional sales” — the pushy, aggressive, talk-AT-people kind of sales — this episode will feel like a deep exhale. Because the truth is, you don't need to be good at selling to grow your coaching business. You just need to get good at starting conversations. Inside this episode, I break down: Why conversations are the foundation of my sales model — and why this approach works beautifully for coaches who want selling to feel natural, relational, and grounded in integrity. How connection (not conversion) is what actually leads to clients — and why focusing on the wrong thing in that first conversation can shut things down before they ever start. The mindset shift every coach needs: your only job is to start the conversation. Not sell. Not strategize. Just connect. The dozens of places conversations can begin: past clients, new followers, people who downloaded your freebie, collaborators, referral sources, your own newsletter list, DM check-ins, and so many more. Why I actively “gamify” conversations in my own business and teach the same thing inside the BBB — and why having structure around this is one of the most profitable habits you can build as a coach. The reality that most conversation starters will go ignored… and why that's perfectly fine. It only takes 1 in 5 to create meaningful connection that eventually leads somewhere. If you're ready to make sales feel like being a human again — and to build your 2026 business around practices that actually feel aligned — this episode will give you a whole new way of thinking about selling.

In this side piece episode of the 2 Be Better Podcast, we pull back the curtain on our 124 page couples retreat workbook and walk you through exactly what we teach at our marriage retreats. You'll hear us dive into the masculine and feminine, yin and yang dynamics, identity, ego, self discipline, emotional regulation, and how your inner world becomes the atmosphere of your relationship. We read straight from the workbook Peaches built for our 2 Be Better couples retreat and break down chapters on conflict, leadership in the home, time and energy management, communication without assumption, and somatic practices for couples. If you're searching for real marriage advice, couples retreat content, masculine and feminine energy in relationships, or long term relationship tools that actually work in real life, this video gives you a front row seat to how we coach couples at our retreats. You can expect practical frameworks, raw examples, and a ton of journal prompts you can use with your partner tonight, even if you never attend one of our retreats. We walk through how identity and ego show up under pressure, why self regulation and discipline matter more than good intentions, and how to repair small ruptures before they become big resentments. We also unpack how masculine repair and feminine repair look different, how to stay connected when you're both exhausted, and how to build emotional safety so intimacy, affection, and sex actually thrive. Whether you're a married couple, engaged, or in a serious relationship looking for conflict resolution tools, communication skills, and journal prompts for couples, this episode is a full mini workshop on building a steady, intentional, “2 Be Better” kind of marriage.Disclaimer: We are not professionals.

Malpractice insurance is something most PAs and other clinicians assume they understand... until something goes wrong. In this episode, Kat sits down with Christopher Cannell, DMSc, MPAS, MPLC, PA-C, DFAAPA, founder of The APC Consultant, for a clear, practical deep dive into malpractice insurance 101 and the medical-legal realities no one teaches us in PA school or on the job. We break down what malpractice insurance actually covers, the key differences between claims-made and occurrence policies, and why employer-provided coverage may not protect you in the way you think it does. Chris explains common assumptions clinicians make about liability insurance, tail coverage, and personal policies, and where those assumptions can quietly put your license, career, and finances at risk. We also go beyond the policy itself to talk about real-world risk management and walk through an anonymized case study that highlights how communication, documentation, and post-event decisions can dramatically affect outcomes. We explore how legal uncertainty contributes to burnout, defensive medicine, and chronic stress, and why legal literacy is an essential (but overlooked) form of clinician self-care. Whether you're early in your PA career or years into practice, this episode will help you feel more confident, informed, and proactive about protecting yourself in today's increasingly complex healthcare environment. Topics Covered: Malpractice insurance explained for PAs and other medical providers Claims-made vs. occurrence policies Tail coverage, nose coverage, and employer-provided malpractice insurance Common malpractice insurance myths and mistakes Risk management strategies that actually matter Medical-legal case studies and lessons learned How legal stress contributes to burnout Resources Mentioned: Check out The APC Consultant and join the waitlist for Chris's masterclass: theapcconsultant.com The Academy of Physician Associates in Legal Medicine (APALM): apalm.net AAPA's Risk Management CME Course: cme.aapa.org/local/catalog/view/product.php?productid=902 Connect with Chris: Email: chris@theapconsultant.com | info@theapcconsultant.com Website: theapcconsultant.com Phone: 339-933-1952 LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/christophercannell https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-apc-consultant Instagram: @theapcconsultant Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/p/The-APC-Consultant-61553148984788/ If this episode was helpful, subscribe to the PA the FI Way podcast or YouTube channel for more content to help you build financial independence and prevent burnout along the way.

Ep. 208: Everyone Wants to Give Parents ‘Peace of Mind’

Every organization and business in the Media and Technology landscape offers parents ‘Peace of Mind.” They promise peace that only their app or service can deliver: “Peace starts with us.” They offer parents peace as an apology: “We didn’t care about your kid’s safety before, but we do now, and here are some safety features to prove it.”   And why is everyone offering parents peace? Because screens and the internet are the greatest source of stress for parents. In this episode, Kelly gives many examples of the ever-so-common promise that specific, better, or new media and technology can give parents the peace of mind they need to allow their kids to use it. Can these products and services actually give peace? Of course not, because peace is a Person named Jesus.
