You Are Not Meant to Climb This Mountain Alone 2 Corinthians 1:3-5 “Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort,  who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God.  For just as we share abundantly in the sufferings of Christ, so also our comfort abounds through Christ.” This verse reminds me of a saying I heard several years ago that brought me comfort. At the time, there was a lot going on in my family. Everything was so hard, and I didn't understand why it was happening. Why did I need to go through all of that with my boys or with my marriage? The quote was something to the effect of, “Maybe you have been given this mountain to climb so that you can show others it can be done.” That quote helped me because it gave my suffering a purpose. It reminded me that what I was learning through my struggles could one day help someone else. This is what this verse is telling us. God is with us in our troubles, and He comforts us. God will be there for you through everything. There is nothing you have to go through alone. He is always there for you, not only to comfort you, but to strengthen you and help you through it. I love how this verse starts by reminding us that God is the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort. God plays so many roles in our lives. He is not only there to solve our problems, heal our loved ones, and answer our prayers. He also wants to comfort us. He understands what we are going through and has compassion for us. Do you ever feel like no one understands what you are going through? Maybe you keep it to yourself because you feel ashamed, afraid of judgment, or convinced no one would understand. If this is you, please know you are not alone. Over the years, I have talked to many people, and almost all of them felt alone in their struggles. It is a common feeling, but that does not make it true. Do you know who wants you to feel like you are alone? The enemy does. He is a liar. He whispers things like, “No one understands,” “Don't bother people with your problems,” “Things will never change,” and “You have to do this all by yourself.” These lies keep us isolated and disconnected from the very people who could help us. It is important that you hear me right now: HE IS A LIAR! HE IS A LIAR! You are not alone. There are many people who are going through the same thing you are going through, and there are many people who have already gone through it. Find someone who has been where you are and has made it through. I promise there is a way through whatever you are facing. There are communities for nearly every struggle imaginable—parenting challenges, depression, marriage struggles, caregiving, career issues, and so much more. The enemy wants us isolated. Let's not give him that satisfaction. Another lie the enemy tells us is that we would be bothering others with our problems. This is not true. People who truly love you want to know when you are hurting and want to help when they can. Even if they can't solve the problem, simply saying it out loud to another person can help. I once heard of two people who called each other once a week and simply took turns talking while the other listened without giving advice or judgment. Sometimes just saying things out loud helps more than we realize. If you don't feel comfortable talking to another person, try talking out loud to God. There is something powerful about bringing your struggles into the light. The enemy also likes to tell us that things will never change. This is another lie. I don't know what your circumstances are. Maybe it is something that will be a lifelong challenge. Maybe you have an illness that cannot be cured, or you are caring for someone whose situation may never improve. Even if your situation cannot change, that does not mean there is no hope. Even if your circumstances remain difficult, you can change how you show up to them. You can ask for help. You can practice self-care. You can allow others to support you. The enemy wants you exhausted and convinced you must carry everything yourself. That is another lie. There are people who want to help. Even when circumstances remain difficult, hope remains because God can change us within the situation. Please remember this: You have so much more power than the enemy wants you to think you do. If you are feeling hopeless and you see no way things will change, please send me an email at catherine@findingtruenorthcoaching.com. I can't go into much detail in this short episode, but I truly believe that no one is stuck in a hopeless situation. I get worked up when I think about how much the enemy attacks people and convinces them they are alone. That is why I love this verse. God shows us compassion and comfort, and we are called to pass that compassion and comfort on to others. Is there someone in your life who is suffering? Have you been afraid to say anything because you worry they won't want your help? We need to be brave and ask anyway. Some people may not be ready to accept help, but that should not stop us from offering it. God did not create us to walk through life alone. If you are in a place to help someone, be bold enough to ask. If you need help, be brave enough to receive it. I am going to say these next four sentences because I know someone listening needs to hear them: YOU ARE LOVED! YOU ARE ENOUGH! YOU ARE STRONG! YOU CAN DO HARD THINGS! Dear Heavenly Father, I ask that you bless all those listening to this episode today.  Lord, help us to see the enemy's lies for what they are.  Help shine a light on any lies in our lives that we might be believing.  Help us to know that our situation is never hopeless because with you, all things are possible.  Help us all to be bold and brave and to reach out and ask for help when we need it, or accept the help that is offered.  Help us also be bold and brave enough to offer help wherever we can.  Lord, we are so thankful for all the compassion and comfort that you give to us.  Please help us to pass that on to others.  Lord, help us to love others as you love us.  You are truly amazing, and we love you, Lord, and we ask all of this in accordance with your will and in Jesus' holy name, Amen.

Hey, Heal Squad! We're back with Part 2 of our chat with TOMS founder Blake Mycoskie.  After years of depression and feeling disconnected from himself, Blake realized something surprising: the life he had built no longer matched the person he really was. In this conversation, he shares the exercise that helped him identify where he was living out of alignment, why he traded a lifestyle that looked successful on paper for one that actually felt authentic, and how learning to stop performing for the world helped him reconnect with himself. Maria and Blake also get into one of the biggest questions we should all be asking ourselves: Are we living the life we truly want—or the life we think we're supposed to want? Together, they talk about why turning 40 can be the perfect time to reevaluate everything, from where you live and who you surround yourself with to how you define success, happiness, and purpose. You'll also hear some of the lighter moments from Blake's healing journey—including the story behind his new "You Are Enough" tattoo, why Matthew McConaughey challenged him to take himself out on a solo dinner date, and the simple practices that help keep him grounded today.This episode is packed with 5 daily practices to build a life that feels like yours.  They also dive into the lessons Blake is learning from guests on his new podcast No Magic Pill, the daily practices that keep him grounded, and his new movement We Are ENOUGH. Enjoy! HEALERS & HEAL LINERS 5 ways to live in alignment with who you really are. Use an alignment journaling exercise, take yourself out to dinner, establish a morning routine, wear a daily reminder (bracelet, tattoo, object you can see), repeat the "I am enough" mantra meditation Loneliness at the top isn't about success—it's about disconnection. The more we perform for validation, the less connected we become to ourselves and the people around us. Healing often requires rebuilding. From where you live to who you spend time with, Blake explains why real transformation sometimes means having the courage to start over.

What if that voice telling you you're broken or fundamentally flawed is wrong? That's the radical message of today's guest, Buddhist teacher and best-selling author Lodro Rinzler.His new book is called Your Good, You Are Enough. Lodro teaches a powerful idea from Tibetan Buddhism called basic goodness, that beneath all our self-doubt, anger, and anxiety, there's something awake and whole already present in us. It sounds like a self-help slogan, but in fact, it's something we can directly experience ourselves in meditation and in everyday life.In this conversation, Lodro talks about how to trust your own goodness without using this powerful idea as an excuse to avoid growth. And how to see goodness in difficult people without excusing harm.Episode #221: You Are Good, You Are Enough with Lodro RinzlerIf you'd like to practice with others and bring these ideas into your life, join our weekly meditation community with Scott.

Have you ever felt like no matter what you do, it's just never enough? In this powerful spirit message, psychic medium Laura Lee channels guidance from the other side — and what Spirit wants you to hear today could shift everything you believe about your own worth. This isn't just a message. It's a spiritual intervention for your soul.Spirit reveals how years of external messaging — from relationships, family, media, and past experiences — have quietly disconnected you from your true spiritual identity. Laura Lee offers grounded, intuitive guidance to help you break the cycle of comparison, release the need for external validation, and finally reconnect with the unshakeable truth your soul has always known: you are enough, exactly as you are, and you always have been. Whether you're navigating grief, healing from rejection, or beginning your spiritual awakening, this episode delivers the spirit messages, psychic insight, and healing clarity you've been waiting for.

In this episode of The Mental Training Lab, I sit down with Buddhist teacher, meditation teacher, and author Lodro Rinzler to explore a concept that has powerful implications for athletes, leaders, and high performers: basic goodness.So many of us operate from the quiet assumption that we're not enough. Not successful enough, disciplined enough, accomplished enough, or mentally tough enough. Lodro's work and new book “You Are Good, You Are Enough” challenge that story at the root, offering the possibility that beneath the striving, self-doubt, anxiety, and the insatiable need to achieve, there is something fundamentally whole and worthy already present.Together, we unpack how meditation functions as mental training, why thoughts don't mean you're “bad” at meditating, and how loving-kindness can help us relate differently to ourselves and others. We also explore the tension between achievement and worth and why so many high performers keep chasing external validation only to discover it doesn't deliver the peace they hoped for.If you've ever felt fueled by the belief that you're not enough, or if you coach athletes and performers who live inside that story, this conversation offers a grounded, practical, and deeply human way to begin relating differently to your own mind.- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Learn more about The Mental Training LabConnect with Pete on Instagram | LinkedIn | WebsiteSubscribe to the podcast on Apple | SpotifyThis show is produced and edited by the team at Palm Tree Pod Co.

Do you ever feel like you're behind in life? Like everyone else is hitting milestones while you're stuck waiting for your life to finally begin? Whether it's your career, relationships, finances, or major life milestones, this episode dives into the psychology of feeling behind, comparison, and the pressure of the invisible timeline we all think we're supposed to follow. From your late 20s into your 30s and beyond, it can feel like a race: finding a partner, advancing your career, buying a home, starting a family. And if you're not there yet, It's easy to spiral. But there's no correct cadence to life. We become so obsessed with hitting that next milestone we completely miss the beauty of the stage we're in right now. If you've ever thought: “I should be further along by now” or “It's too late to start over”… this episode is for you. Tune in to hear: Why you feel behind in life (and the psychology behind it) How comparison and social media distort your timeline The cost of chasing milestones and “the arrival fallacy” Practical ways to stop comparing yourself to others How to bring what you're craving (love, kids, success) into your life right now Remember, your life isn't on hold.., It's happening right now.

In this episode, I talk to Lodro Rinzler about his book, You Are Good, You Are Enough, which explores the Buddhist concept of basic goodness. We discuss how life's experiences can cover our inherent wholeness with "clay"—conditioning and societal messages—leading us to believe we are lacking. The core teaching is that we don't need to add anything to become whole; we need to peel away the layers to reveal the "gold" that's already there. Key takeaways include understanding that the nagging voice of self-doubt doesn't have to drive our actions, and that meditation, or gom, is about becoming familiar with our true nature, not just stress relief. This message is particularly relevant today, offering a powerful counterpoint to a culture that often profits from our sense of inadequacy, and encouraging us to see this inherent goodness not only in ourselves but in others as well.https://amzn.to/4s9kC92https://www.lodrorinzler.com/youaregoodExplore more at eightfoldpath.com: full transcripts, guided meditations, courses, and Noah AI, an AI you can chat with about any episode or teaching.

“Send Coach John a message”I came across this post later in the day and I can see how it's directly connected to how my day started. Once again, Mark Hickie (@MPHickie) comes through with some amazing & thought provoking info. Along with the clip from Brandon Chen, I was really able to see through some challenges today.  Mark shared these thoughts: “You won't always feel your best-and that's okay. Your best will look different every day. Sometimes it's strength, sometimes it's simply showing up. Bring what you have, as you are. That's always enough. You are enough!” I didn't feel like my best today, but as the day kept going on, and I looked outside of myself to help out with a couple of things, I felt better. Simply showing up and giving my best, in the moment itself, well - that's a win for sure. Remember these thoughts when you are facing tough moments throughout your days.

The companion book, Lyrical Dharma: Hip-Hop as Mindfulness (Parallax Press), arrives with a foreword by Pulitzer Prize winner Alice Walker, further cementing Born I as a unique voice at the intersection of art and contemplative practice. A certified meditation teacher, Born I is also the male voice on the Balance app, where his teachings reach millions of listeners daily. He regularly leads retreats, concerts, and hybrid events that weave live hip-hop with meditation and sound baths – including performances at the Kennedy Center, Buddhist Arts & Film Festival, and alongside the monks of Plum Village Monastery. Through his label YAE (You Are Enough), Born I has released a wide range of projects, from the autobiographical hip-hop album In This Moment (2021), to the spiritual lo-fi project AMIDA (2023), to his latest genre-defying live shows and immersive short films. His children's books, You Are Enough and Love Your Amazing Self, encourage young people to practice self-compassion and have been featured at the Grammy Museum in Los Angeles. Whether performing for a packed festival crowd or guiding intimate circles in meditation, Born I carries one message across every medium: You are enough. Right now, exactly as you are. https://bornimusic.com/ Natalie Brown, host of Sounds Heal Podcast: http://www.soundshealstudio.com http://www.facebook.com/soundshealstudio http://www.instagram.com/nataliebrownsoundsheal http://www.youtube.com/soundshealstudio Music by Natalie Brown, Hope & Heart http://www.youtu.be/hZPx6zJX6yA Email: soundshealstudio@gmail.com

There's one message every motivational speaker and social media influencer wants to give you: You Are Enough. Life is hard, but you've got this. Only problem is, we know that's not true. We feel our inadequacy every day in our work, parenting, and DIY home repairs. Thankfully, Jesus came to meet us in our inadequacy and make us more than enough.

Throughout the meditation, Lauren repeats reassuring affirmations: *You have done enough for today. You are enough exactly as you are. Your body knows how to sleep. You can trust the process.* Listen as you lie down, allow the words to wash over you, and let your body remember how to rest and sleep. Here's a shorter, cleaner set of YouTube chapters for this meditation: 0:00 – **Welcome & Intention: You've Done Enough Today** 2:01 – **Getting Comfortable: Sitting or Lying Down** 3:40 – **Permission to Rest & Let Go of the Day** 4:50 – **Thoughts as Clouds in the Sky of the Mind** 7:00 – **Gentle Breath & Quiet Sigh Exhale** 14:24 – **Full Body Scan: Feeling Supported** 21:22 – **Belly & Chest: Releasing Worry and Emotion** 27:40 – **Shoulders, Arms & Hands: Putting Down the Backpack of Life** 29:45 – **Neck, Throat, Face & Head: Unspoken Feelings Soften** 32:24 – **Head-to-Toe Relaxation: You Are Allowed to Rest** 33:34 – **Safe Place Imagery: Beach, Forest, or Cozy Room** 37:45 – **Rowboat on the Lake: Gently Drifting** 40:17 – **Affirmations: You Have Done Enough, You Are Enough** 45:22 – **Deep Rest: It Will Be Okay** --- Come sit with me—let's slow down, sleep better, and feel more like ourselves. My courses (gentle, practical, cozy)

This week on Love to Live Healthy, Josephine and Jake open up an honest conversation about body dysmorphia — what it feels like, why it's more common than you think, and how to start rebuilding a healthier, kinder relationship with yourself.Remember… the mirror isn't always telling the truth.

Is it Possible to Have Joy in Lovemaking? Physical intimacy can be one of the most painful topics in a woman's life. Maybe you've felt shame for years. Maybe your husband brings it up constantly, and all you want to do is shrink away. Or maybe, deep down, you wonder if something is just wrong with you. If that's where you are, I want you to know—I've been there. I've felt the fear. I've felt the pressure. I've carried the shame. And I want to walk with you through what I've learned on the other side: There is healing. There is hope. And yes, there is joy. The Pain Is Real—But So Is God's Compassion You may have asked yourself: Why did God make me this way? Why don't I want they way my husband does? Why does sex feel more like pressure than connection? God doesn't ignore your questions. He weeps with you. Just like Jesus wept for Mary and Martha, knowing full well He was about to raise Lazarus—He still entered into their grief. He enters yours too. And even if this has felt like a battleground, it doesn't have to stay that way. Healing Begins with Safety—Not Pressure Before you even think about "fixing" your physical intimacy, your heart needs a safe place to land. And for many women, that starts with unlearning the belief that you have to earn love—God's or anyone else's. You don't. God's love isn't tied to your performance, your body, your ability to "show up" intimately, or how productive you are in your day. He loves you because He made you. That's it. That's all. Your worth was settled at the cross—not in your bedroom, your to-do list, or your motherhood. When you live from that place of being already loved, you finally have space to breathe and truly begin to heal. Slowing Down Is a Spiritual Discipline One of the most overlooked steps in reclaiming intimacy is rest. Real, soul-deep rest. When your calendar is overstuffed, your stress is high, and your self-worth is tangled in busyness—you don't have the capacity for joy. You don't have the margin for laughter or connection. That's why Sabbath isn't optional. It's sacred. God designed you to stop. To remember that you are not the one holding the world together. He is. So yes—cancel some things. Say no. Choose to be "Mary," sitting at Jesus' feet, choosing the better thing. Intimacy Flourishes Where Joy Lives When life slows down and you begin to enjoy God, enjoy your family, and even laugh at yourself—you begin to unlock joy in intimacy, too. Yes, that's right! Because fun, play, and freedom matter. Physical intimacy was never meant to be a chore, a duty, or a place of dread. It's meant to be a gift. Something sacred and fun. And when your heart is in a place of peace, you stop obsessing about perfection and instead, you show up with your whole self—free to connect, to try, to be present, to even laugh when something awkward happens. That's when intimacy becomes what it was meant to be: a beautiful, joy-filled expression of love. Small Steps Towards Healing Friend, if you're carrying shame, exhaustion, or resentment around sex—it's okay to start small. You don't have to force yourself into healing overnight. Start with this: Make space to be with God, not just do things for Him. Release the belief that you have to earn His love. Say no to busy so you can say yes to rest. Look for moments of laughter and joy—and embrace them. Show up to intimacy with the goal of connection, not perfection. Your healing doesn't begin in your bedroom. It begins in your soul. And as God gently rewrites your story, intimacy will follow. Final Thoughts: You Are Loved. You Are Enough. God doesn't want you stuck in shame. He doesn't want your marriage defined by dread or even silence. He wants you whole. He wants you free. He wants you to enjoy Him—and yes, enjoy your marriage. You don't have to strive anymore. You are loved because He says you are. You are enough because He made you. And intimacy, like joy, can grow again. One day, you'll look back and say, "I never thought it could be like this… but God healed me." I believe that day is coming. You are in our prayers, dear reader and dear listener.

PPPS - Here is a quote from a recent graduate: "When I came into the DYM program, I was spent emotionally, and it was difficult to carry on with my daily tasks. Even as a devoted Christian, my pain was overshadowing the joy that I have in the Lord because I was so focused on the problems. Immediately, the preparatory work of applying the DYM recipe required some major changes in my behavior. The Lord began to minister to me as I applied myself to the modules, homework, accountability calls and coaching calls. I began to experience hope, not because my circumstances were changing, but because I was allowing the Lord to change me!"

Loving greetings and Happy Autumn to you all! I look forward to each one of you joining us as throughout the month of October we journey together through our theme, “Authentic Wealth Is an Inside Job.” The October 19, 2025 topic is You Are Enough. The nature of the True Self is to be Itself. […]

We live in a world full of labels. Whether given by family, friends, enemies, or even our own inner critic, these labels are too small to capture the beauty and dignity of who we really are.In this message, "he Me God Wants Me To Be," Pastor Mark explores what it means to live out your true identity: not the false self shaped by performance, politics, or people-pleasing, but the name God writes on your heart. Scripture reminds us that we are created in God's image and called His beloved children. That identity is not achieved but received—and it changes everything.Discover how to:• Receive the identity God has already given you in Christ• Abide in Jesus so His life flows through you• Respond with everyday acts of love and justiceWhen we tear off the old labels and remain rooted in Christ, we become “the me God wants me to be.”

In this episode Dawn Thompson shares her powerful story of growing up with abandonment, battling addiction and weight struggles, experiencing painful relationships and an abortion, and ultimately finding healing through faith and personal development. She explains how those experiences led her to start the You Are Enough movement, the work she does to help women and children, and the ongoing practices—faith, forgiveness, and self-celebration—that sustain her recovery and purpose.

Visit today's blog post here. In this episode, we're diving into how to create YOUR 3 day work week. I'm sharing all about how I've embraced this way of working, and why I know it's the key to working smarter, not harder—without burning out. And to make this super actionable, I've recorded the audiobook version of my mini-book, the 3 Day Entrepreneur Workbook for you to listen to on the podcast!

In this heart-opening episode, Candace explores:

This sermon, "You Are Enough," by Dr. Bobby Allen, centers on the Christian theological concept that individuals possess inherent worth and purpose because they are divinely created and sustained by God. Drawing on various biblical passages like Psalm 139:13–14, 2 Corinthians 12:9, and Ephesians 2:10, the sermon emphasizes that God's grace covers human imperfections, and each person is an "original masterpiece" with a unique calling. Ultimately, the core message encourages listeners to embrace their identity in Christ and reject worldly pressures that diminish their self-worth, reminding them that their value stems from their relationship with God, not their achievements. The sermon concludes with a call to affirm this truth personally and share it with others.

In this episode of The Creative Genius Podcast (the finale for Season 4!) Kate sits down with Albert Bramante — talent agent, psychologist, and author — to explore why so many creatives hold themselves back, how to reframe rejection, why fear isn't the enemy, and how to trust yourself enough to rewrite your own script.From Kate: Today I'm bringing you a conversation that feels especially alive and needed right now. I sat down with Albert Bramante — a rare soul who bridges the world of psychology and the performing arts. For over two decades he's walked alongside actors, dancers, and other artists as both a talent agent and a guide through the invisible terrain of mindset, fear, self-doubt, and that sneaky self-sabotage we all bump up against when we dare to put our true selves out in the world.In this conversation, Albert opens up about how rejection isn't really rejection, how fear can be a strange protector, and how staying open to the unknown — in our art, our work, our relationships — can free us to live bigger, truer lives.I hope as you listen you feel a soft invitation to loosen your own grip a little, to see where you might be clinging too tightly to other people's scripts for you — and maybe, just maybe, to let yourself play again.Highlights:Why rejection is rarely personalHow our childhood shapes creative courageWhat fear of success really meansThe power of playing instead of performingReal stories about people pleasing, burnout, and letting go

In this special episode, I sit down with my little sister to reflect on our unforgettable trip to France. Though my self-esteem was tested, it was a journey that made me and my sister closer than ever. From the cobblestone streets of Paris to the Mediterranean breeze in Nice, we share how travel can shape your confidence, challenge your mindset, and create memories you'll never forget. You will hear about… the sister fights we had in France (and how we repaired)our best and worst moments from the trip, including my “haircut from hell” that totally tested my self-esteemwhat I learned about my perfectionism and personal growthmy sister's relationship with art, her supportive art teacher, and how creative expression has shaped her self-esteem and sense of identity how it feels to turn 17 and the pressure of feeling like you have to figure out who you're supposed to beThough this podcast is usually about self-love, body image, and confidence for women, I hope you enjoy this conversation with my sister. We learned so much about each other, the beauty and complexity of family, and how embracing imperfections can lead to genuine connection. Traveling together magnified our insecurities but also opened our hearts to more empathy and understanding—both for ourselves and for each other.Remember: you don't have to have everything perfectly planned out to be worthy of love, adventure, and self-compassion, and connection. Growth happens in the messy, unpolished moments, not just the picture-perfect ones. Your self-esteem might waver, and your confidence might crack, but you are enough exactly as you are.Mentioned In This Episode... Google map with all of our France recommendations

Alan shares a personal milestone (achieving a fitness age of 50!) and dives into his love for mountain biking – an exercise that feels like playing. He uses his experience to draw a powerful analogy between the often extreme portrayal of mountain biking on social media and the curated "highlight reel" often seen in the dental world online. Alan discusses how comparing ourselves to these curated images can lead to feeling "less than," whether it's watching downhill racers pull off impossible stunts or seeing dentists showcase only their most complex cases. The core message? It's okay to find joy and fulfillment in your version of biking or dentistry, even if it isn't "Instagram-epic." You are enough, and your "bread and butter" work is valuable. Key Points: Alan's journey from reluctant runner to avid mountain biker (including surviving being hit by a truck!). The joy of finding exercise that feels like play.
