Depression. It's is an epidemic in our world. Men suffer from depression at higher rates than women, yet they refuse to seek help. One part societal pressures, one part not knowing where to go for help, it is a barrier to be broken down. Dennis is joined by his wife Lisa in this episode to provide a woman's take on how to identify depression symptoms as we cover various aspects of depression. And please remember.

This is incredible. A real-life version of that scene from The Life of Brian: "Stan, you haven't got a womb! Where's the foetus going to gestate?! You going to keep it in a box?!" The Dangerous Lie Casual Christians Believe About JesusIn 5 words, Jesus explained exactly who He is. "Before Abraham was, I AM." (From John 8:58). Not “I WAS”, I am. Or, if you look at the raw Greek manuscript that the Apostle John penned, it is the two-word phrase: Ἐγώ εἰμι“Ego Eimi”.Jesus claimed self-existence—an uncreated, eternal nature that has no beginning, no end, and relies on absolutely nothing else to exist.The Pharasees knew exactly who Jesus said He was and IS. “I AM THAT I AM... Say this to the people of Israel: I AM has sent me to you.” (Exodus 3:14 Jesus was appropriating the unutterable Name of Yahweh for Himself. "So they picked up stones to throw at Him." Under Levitical law, claiming to be the self-existent God was punishable by immediate stoning for blasphemy.'The "I AM" Statements (Gospel of John)“I am the Bread of Life” (John 6:35): Describing himself as the ultimate source of spiritual nourishment that satisfies the soul.“I am the Light of the World”  (John 8:12): Describing himself as the guide who removes spiritual darkness and brings truth.“I am the Gate for the Sheep” (John 10:7): Describing himself as the only way to enter into a relationship with God and find safety.“I am the Good Shephder” (John 10:11): Describing his sacrificial love, protection, and willingness to lay down his life for his followers.I am the Resurrection and the Life” (John 11:25): Describing his power over death and his ability to give eternal life to those who believe in him.“I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life” (John 14:6): Describing himself as the exclusive path to God, absolute truth, and the source of eternal existence.“I am the Vine.” (John 15:1): Describing himself as the source of spiritual vitality; believers are the branches that must stay connected to him to bear fruit.

Joy Follows the Trials: It's Too Soon to Quit!Are you sitting in the middle of a heavy season right now? In this video, Coach Shelby shares a powerful, timely word that rose up during his personal Bible study with his wife—a message specifically for those navigating deep waters, whether it's financial strain, a broken marriage, problems at work, persecution, or sickness.Drawing from John 15:11 and Hebrews 12:2, Coach breaks down the true definition of Kingdom Joy. Real, Christlike joy isn't a temporary emotional high; it is a deep spiritual confidence. It's knowing that when we die to our own will and endure the heavy weight of a trial, the absolute certainty of God's victory is waiting on the other side. Jesus endured the cross because He kept His eyes fixed on the joy set before Him. If you knew a breakthrough was just around the chronological corner, your attitude in the storm would completely shift. Don't let a lack of endurance rob you of your inheritance. Lean on the Helper, stay the course, and claim your fullness of joy today. It is way too soon to quit!Classroom Talking Points:Fullness of Joy: The difference between worldly happiness and the remaining, permanent joy of Christ.The Bank Account Analogy: How knowing the "end of the matter" completely changes your perspective on current suffering.The Danger of Short-Cutting: Why giving up early indicates a subconscious lack of trust in the One who promised.The Eternal Witness: Comfort in knowing that God saw this specific trial coming from eternity past.The Final Lap: Visualizing heaven cheering you on as you head into the final stretch of the race.Scriptures Explored:John 15:11 – "...that My joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full."Hebrews 12:2 – Looking unto Jesus, who for the joy set before Him endured the cross.John 15:26 – The arrival of the Helper, the Spirit of Truth who testifies of Christ.#WordTime #CoachShelby #JoyFollowsTheTrials #StayTheCourse #FullnessOfJoy #SpiritualEndurance #FaithInTheStorm #TooSoonToQuitChapters0:00 - Intro: A Timely Word on Joy from Personal Study0:18 - John 15:11: Defining the Fullness of Kingdom Joy0:33 - Lessons from Hebrews 12: How Jesus Endured the Cross1:09 - Kingdom Dynamics: The Price of Dying to Self1:32 - What Are You Battling?

We don't Wanna Be Startin' Somethin', but Michael Jackson holds the record of being one of the best-selling artists of all time and no one has been able to Beat It. Wooo! And we Remember the Time when the King of Pop was beloved by all. Shamone! So, on this episode of Baconsale, we're ready to discuss the man who will dance on the floor in the round. We'll first review his HIStory, including the good and the Bad (and the Black or White). Then we're going to Heal the World by talking about MJ's best and worst songs. Hee-hee! This episode is sure to be a Thriller, and may even sound Dangerous, but we'll keep things family friendly and focus on the music and Human Nature instead of controversy.   If you wanna make the world a better place, take a look at yourself and then press play.   And if you want to Jam to Michael's hits, You Are Not Alone.

What happens when life doesn't just challenge you, but it completely upends you? In this episode, Karen and her husband Chris share their five-year journey through kidney failure, dialysis, and ultimately a life-saving transplant (through a chapter they wrote in the book Unshakeable). What began as a medical crisis became a profound lesson in resilience, faith, and the power of community. This conversation will shift how you think about hope. Because hope isn't always something you feel, it's something that can be carried for you until you're strong enough to hold it again.

pWotD Episode 3281: Michael Jackson Welcome to popular Wiki of the Day, spotlighting Wikipedia's most visited pages, giving you a peek into what the world is curious about today.With 339,354 views on Sunday, 26 April 2026 our article of the day is Michael Jackson.Michael Joseph Jackson (August 29, 1958 – June 25, 2009) was an American singer, songwriter, dancer, and philanthropist. Dubbed the "King of Pop", he is widely regarded as one of the most culturally significant figures of the 20th century. Over a four-decade career, his musical achievements broke American racial barriers and made him a dominant figure worldwide. Through his songs, concerts, and fashion, he proliferated visual performance for artists in popular music, popularizing street dance moves such as the moonwalk, the robot, and the anti-gravity lean. Jackson is often deemed the greatest entertainer of all time.The eighth child of the Jackson family, Jackson made his public debut at age six as the lead singer of the Jackson 5, one of Motown's most successful acts. He rose to solo stardom with the album Off the Wall (1979) and achieved unprecedented global success with Thriller (1982), the best-selling album in history. Its short film-style music videos for "Thriller", "Beat It", and "Billie Jean" redefined the medium as an art form. Jackson followed it with Bad (1987), the first album to produce five US Billboard Hot 100 number-one singles: "I Just Can't Stop Loving You", "Bad", "The Way You Make Me Feel", "Man in the Mirror", and "Dirty Diana". His albums Dangerous (1991) and HIStory (1995) spawned the respective US number-one singles "Black or White" and "You Are Not Alone"; the latter was the first song to debut atop the Hot 100. Jackson's final album, Invincible (2001), is the most expensive ever made.From the mid-1980s, Jackson came under public scrutiny due to changes in his appearance, relationships, behavior, and lifestyle. He was accused of sexually abusing a 13-year-old boy in 1993. The case was settled out of court during 1994, and Jackson was not indicted due to lack of evidence. In 2005, Jackson was tried and acquitted of child sexual abuse and other charges. During 2009, while preparing for This Is It, a series of comeback concerts, he died from an overdose of propofol administered by his personal physician Conrad Murray, who was convicted of involuntary manslaughter in 2011. Jackson's death triggered global reactions, creating unprecedented surges of Internet traffic and a spike in his music sales. His televised memorial service, held at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, is estimated to have been viewed by more than 2.5 billion people.Jackson is one of the best-selling music artists of all time, with estimated sales of over 500 million records as a solo artist. He is also—along with Paul McCartney and Phil Collins—one of three recording artists to have sold over 100 million records both as solo artists and separately as principal members of a band. He holds a joint-record for a male solo artist with 13 Billboard Hot 100 number-one singles and is the only artist to have a top-ten single in six decades. One of the most-awarded music artists in history, Jackson received 13 Grammy Awards, the Grammy Legend Award, and the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award; 26 American Music Awards; 12 World Music Awards; 8 MTV Video Music Awards; 6 Brit Awards; and 3 presidential honors. He was inducted into numerous halls of fame, including the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame twice, the Songwriters Hall of Fame, and the Dance Hall of Fame. Having donated an estimated $500 million, Jackson is credited with setting a standard for celebrity charity. In 2024, half of his music catalogue was sold to Sony for $600 million, the largest music acquisition for a single artist.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 02:36 UTC on Monday, 27 April 2026.For the full current version of the article, see Michael Jackson on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Bluesky at @wikioftheday.com.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Jasmine.

https://youtu.be/-dA9YBUFBAU?si=F0ALBejCy5GZY36K *Handouts*Welcome I have watched relationships die…   Slow… Painful Not one big moment  Just distance  -Texts get shorter-Conversations get colder-Connection fades-Until finally – nothing. Some relationships don't explode – they slowly lose oxygen. You can be in the same room and still feel miles apart. Some of biggest regrets are dead relationships. Am I the only one? This is not a rare problem. Uh Oh… We Have a Problem 4 in 10 marriages end in divorce. 6 in 10 second marriages don't make it. Fewer people are getting married. 1 in 3 feel lonely. If you have a relationship problem – YOU ARE NOT ALONE. We don't just have a divorce problemWe have a dead relationship problem We don't even try to fix relationships anymore… We know how to block, mute, cut off, move on, unfriend, unfollow, snooze.We don't know how to repair. When the Relationship Is Dead – How to Start Again God cares about this subject.Jesus shows us how to repair relationships in John 21. Before we read – understand the moment. Third appearance after resurrection Jesus alive, but something still broken Peter: Denied Jesus 3 times. Hides.. Calling? No – Goes back to fishing  How will Jesus respond to the denier who went back? Jesus shows up on the shore. Not with a lectureNot with angerWith breakfast Fish on the fireBread readyA seat waiting Jesus creates space for a conversation He's not coming to cancel PeterHe's coming to restore him John 21:15-1715 When they had finished eating, Jesus said to Simon Peter, “Simon son of John, do you love me more than these?”“Yes, Lord,” he said, “you know that I love you.”Jesus said, “Feed my lambs.” 16 Again Jesus said, “Simon son of John, do you love me?”He answered, “Yes, Lord, you know that I love you.”Jesus said, “Take care of my sheep.” 17 The third time he said to him, “Simon son of John, do you love me?”Peter was hurt because Jesus asked him the third time, “Do you love me?” He said, “Lord, you know all things; you know that I love you.”Jesus said, “Feed my sheep. Curious conversation.Jesus is repeating himself…Peter is repeating himself…What is even going on? 4 THINGS JESUS DOES TO RESURRECT A RELATIONSHIP 1. Jesus made the first move Peter goes back  Jesus shows up  Before Peter moved toward Jesus.Jesus had already moved toward Peter. Jesus Breakfast – Fish, Bread, FireEffort Dead relationships don't come back by accidentSomeone makes a move Jesus tries again, and again, and again 2. Jesus chose conversation over conclusion Three times: “Do you love me?” “Work with me… feed my sheep.” “I still want you Peter.” Not: You blew it  We're done  You had your chance  Jesus keeps talking… reaching… We tend to jump to conclusionsWe assumeWe shut the doorWe end the story We close the caseJesus opens the conversation 3. Jesus meets Peter where he is Peter – No more big talk – overpromise“I'll never leave you…” Just honesty  Remember the strange conversation…? Love Is Often Lost in Translation agapaō = committed, sacrificial love  phileō = relational, brotherly love  This explains the strange conversation. John 21:15-17 (altered)15 When they had finished eating, Jesus said to Simon Peter, “Simon son of John, do you agapaō me more than these?”“Yes, Lord,” he said, “you know that I phileō you.”Jesus said, “Feed my lambs.” 16 Again Jesus said, “Simon son of John, do you agapaō me?”|He answered, “Yes, Lord, you know that I phileō you.”Jesus said, “Take care of my sheep.” 17 The third time he said to him, “Simon son of John, do you phileō me?”Peter was hurt because Jesus asked him the third time, “Do you phileō me?” He said, “Lord, you know all things; you know that I phileō you.”Jesus said, “Feed my sheep. 3. Jesus meets Peter where he is Jesus agapaō  –  Peter phileō These loves are not the same…Peter could not meet the level of love that Jesus had… These loves are not the same… but HONESTJesus will receive the honest love you can give… and grow you from there None of our love measures up to Jesus… but can we give honest love…? Allow him to grow us. 4. Jesus restores purpose “Feed my sheep” Peter messed upGod's purpose didn't. Calling. Gifting. Peter failedbut Peter wasn't finished Grace is not just “you're forgiven”Grace is “you still matter” That is how Jesus treated Peter… where do we start? START HERE 1. Make the first move Jesus made the first move, so can you.  Do we realize how important making the first move is? Matthew 5:23–24 (NIV)23 “Therefore, if you are offering your gift at the altar and there remember that your brother or sister has something against you, 24 leave your gift there in front of the altar. First go and be reconciled to them; then come and offer your gift. Israelites would travel to Jerusalem…  Leave your giftGo make it rightThen come back Reconciliation matters so muchJesus says pause worship to fix it Don't sing like everything is finewhile avoiding what needs to be faced 2. Start up the conversation Stop assuming  Stop writing stories in your head  You've had argumentswith people who weren't even there We do EVERYTHING BUT have the conversation. Maybe the most spiritual thing you do this week is start the conversation Not to winNot to proveNot to control To open the door Replace your made up story with a actual conversation 3. Restore someone If Jesus restored Peter, we must restore people  Someone around you thinks their story is over Call them!Speak lifeOffer gracePoint them forward Don't treat people like they're finished  Imagine with me… A church that makes the first move  A church that starts conversations  A church that restores people  A church that sees purpose  A church that heals relationships People aren't disposableso relationships shouldn't be either Maybe your relationship with God feels dead  You drifted  You failed  You went back  But Jesus still shows upJesus still starts the conversationJesus still makes room This is the Good news for youJesus died for your sinJesus rose againYour failure is not final This is your day. If you've never confessed faith in Jesus, this is your dayIf you're ready to be free from your past, this is your dayIf you're ready to walk with Jesus, this is your dayCall to Action 1. Step out and reach out Prayer  Salvation  Burden  Not just new believersAnyone who needs help Don't hold back if God is calling you forward 2. Start the conversation This week  Honestly  Humbly  3. Take your next step Use the Connect Card  Prayer requestsNext stepStart a conversation with the church

Matthew 28:1-10 OPENING MEDITATION Sarah Speed Every morning the sun rises, majestic and steady. She is greeted in all her strength with the joyous cacophony of birdsong. I like to believe this holy chorus is the birds telling each other— I'm here. We made it through the night. You're not alone. What good, good news. I think the resurrection is a bit like that. God is here. We made it through the night. We are not alone. What good, good news.

Have you ever felt like the universe is trying to reach you but you can't quite make out the signal? What if there are angelic beings with urgent messages for humanity right now, and two women were specifically called to deliver them? In this episode, Will and Karen sit down with Pamela Downs and Lisa Roach, psychic intuitive healers, angelic channelers, and founding partners of Spirit Calling, an online spiritual community built for everyone who is waking up and wondering what's happening to them. Pamela and Lisa are channels for the Great Council of Light, a collective of angelic, divine, intelligent beings guiding humanity through one of the most significant shifts in consciousness the planet has ever experienced. And in this episode, the Council doesn't just get discussed. They show up. What You'll Hear in This Episode: How Pamela's week-long ayahuasca journey in Costa Rica unlocked her psychic abilities and set her on a path to build a portal for awakening humanity. How Lisa independently received the same download to "create a portal to serve mankind," and how the two found each other through a single unexplained Facebook post. What the Great Council of Light actually is, why two people can channel the same collective, and what they want humanity to know right now. A live channeled message for the collective, delivered on air. A live personal channeled message for Will, and the emotional moment that followed. The five signs you may already be in a spiritual awakening (and why most people dismiss them as something else). Why so many spiritually awakening people feel isolated, anxious, and out of place, and what to do about it. What Spirit Calling is, who it's for, and why it's been called the Angie's List for the spiritual world. The Message the Council Keeps Repeating: You are not crazy. You are not alone. And peace is not something you've lost. It's something you've been trained to distrust. Whether you're a seasoned practitioner or someone who just started noticing things that don't fit your old worldview, this episode meets you exactly where you are. Connect with Pamela Downs and Lisa Roach: Visit Spirit Calling and download their free guide to the top five symptoms of spiritual awakening at spiritcalling.com.

Description:What does it mean to be okay when nothing is okay? Not fixed. Not optimized. Not cured. Just… okay. This week, Jen and Amy sit down with bestselling author and professional weirdo Jenny Lawson to talk about surviving — and sometimes even thriving — inside a brain that does not always cooperate. Jenny's new book, How to Be Okay When Nothing Is Okay, is a field guide for tender humans: a collection of tiny tools for when the big solutions feel impossible. Today, we talk about: Living with “tiny erratic squirrels” in your head Why imposter syndrome gets louder with success Learning to live within your real capacity Why you're not failing if it's just not for you Helpful tools like “weird walks”, “body doubling”, “writing Zooms”,  The radical courage of simply staying This conversation explores what happens when we stop trying to override our nervous systems and start listening to them instead. Midlife has a way of stripping away illusion — about productivity, about comparison, about who we're supposed to be. Jenny reminds us that sometimes grit looks like finishing the book. And sometimes it looks like taking a drink of water and calling it enough. If you are exhausted, if you feel behind, if your brain tells you you're the only one struggling – YOU ARE NOT ALONE. And being “still here” is no small thing. Thought-provoking Quotes: “Self-help books are super helpful for the right kind of person but I'm not that person.” – Jenny Lawson “Keep in mind that what worked for you in the past might not necessarily work for you now or in the future, and that doesn't mean you failed. It just means that's an opportunity.” – Jenny Lawson “If you throw humor into a really dark subject, it gives people permission to laugh. And then that big monster becomes so much smaller.” – Jenny Lawson Resources Mentioned in This Episode: How to Be Okay When Nothing Is Okay: Tips and Tricks That Kept Me Alive, Happy, and Creative in Spite of Myself by Jenny Lawson – https://amzn.to/4qWKZi5 Samantha Irby – https://www.samanthairby.com/ A Ghost and His Gold by Roberta Eaton Cheadle – https://amzn.to/405lMH8 Anne Rice – https://annerice.com/ Dean Koontz – https://www.deankoontz.com/ Mexican Gothic by Silvia Moreno-Garcia – https://amzn.to/475Qp31 Focusmate (Body Doubling App) -  https://www.focusmate.com/ Let's Pretend This Never Happened: (A Mostly True Memoir) by Jenny Lawson – https://amzn.to/4rGEBN7 Furiously Happy: A Funny Book About Horrible Things by Jenny Lawson – https://amzn.to/4u4RBxG Broken (In The Best Possible Way) by Jenny Lawson – https://amzn.to/4r3Bhuh Jenny Lawson Book Tour - https://thebloggess.com/2026/02/25/how-to-be-okay-when-nothing-is-okay-on-book-tour/ Jenny Lawson's Nowhere Book Shop in San Antonio, TX - https://nowherebookshop.com/ Guest's Links: Website - https://thebloggess.com/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/thebloggess/ Twitter - https://x.com/TheBloggess Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/jennythebloggess Pinterest - https://www.pinterest.com/thebloggess/ Substack - https://thebloggess.substack.com/ Connect with Jen!Jen's Website - https://jenhatmaker.com/ Jen's Instagram - https://instagram.com/jenhatmakerJen's Twitter - https://twitter.com/jenHatmaker/ Jen's Facebook - https://facebook.com/jenhatmakerJen's YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/user/JenHatmaker The For the Love Podcast is presented by Audacy.

There are moments when you already know what the next step is—you've thought about it, prayed about it, and come back to it more than once. And yet, you still feel stuck. Not because you need more information, but because you don't know what will happen if you actually follow through. In this episode, we're talking about what it looks like to be obedient—even when the outcome is unclear—and how that connects to your health, your habits, and your daily decisions. This is for the Christian woman who wants to live with more clarity and peace, but feels caught in that cycle of overthinking, second-guessing, and waiting for things to make sense before taking action. If that's where you are, this will help you step back, think clearly, and move forward in a way that aligns with your faith and how God designed your body to function. When You Already Know What to Do Many times, the issue isn't a lack of information. It's not that you don't know what to do—it's that you're unsure what will happen if you do it. You might already feel a nudge to: Improve your sleep or nutrition Cut back on sugar or processed foods Address emotional or past wounds Step away from something that's draining your health Take a step that feels uncomfortable or unfamiliar The challenge isn't clarity. The challenge is trusting God with the outcome. As shared in the episode, “You already know what God is asking you to do. The question is, do you trust Him enough to do it without knowing how it's going to turn out?” Obedience Isn't Always Comfortable Obedience can feel small… or it can feel life-altering. Sometimes it's: Cooking a meal for someone when you don't feel like it Saying something kind when it's hard Changing a daily habit that's become comfortable Other times, it's: Making a major life or health decision Letting go of something familiar Taking a step that disrupts your routine Obedience often requires: Discomfort Sacrifice A willingness to step outside your normal patterns And yet, this is where growth happens—physically, emotionally, and spiritually. The Cost of Disobedience (and Why It Matters) In today's culture, we often focus on God's grace—and rightly so. But it's also important to remember: God calls us to obedience Our choices have consequences Avoiding what we know we should do keeps us stuck Whether it's your health, your habits, or your calling… Staying in the same cycle of: Overthinking Delaying Avoiding …can quietly impact your energy, your peace, and your overall well-being. A Biblical Example of Obedience: Naaman In 2 Kings 5, Naaman was instructed to wash in the Jordan River seven times to be healed. At first, he resisted. It didn't make sense It wasn't what he expected It felt inconvenient But when he finally obeyed, he was restored. This story is a powerful reminder: Obedience doesn't always align with what feels logical or comfortable—but it still matters. Trusting God Without Knowing the Outcome One of the hardest parts of obedience is this:

Mark 11:1-11“If you possess enough courage to speak out what you are, you will find you are not alone.” - Richard Wright

There's something powerful that happens when we stop silencing ourselves… and start telling the truth. On this episode, I'm spotlighting Erin Snow, founder of The Unmuted Room—a space dedicated to helping women reconnect with their voice, their truth, and their inner knowing. Because healing isn't about becoming someone new—it's about remembering who you've always been… underneath the noise. If you've ever felt unheard, unseen, or disconnected from your own voice—this is your invitation to lean in.Your voice mattersYour story mattersYou matter Follow Erin and step into your own Unmuted Room.Website: www.theunmutedroom.comEmail: erin@theunmutedroom.comIG: @the.unmutedroom

Today, I'm giving you a “behind the reporting” podcast, where I'll provide you my personal opinion, experience and added value with information that did not make it into my recent article for the U.S. News titled: How to Start a Yoga Practice for Depression, According to Experts.In the article, I feature Dr. Ken Duckworth the Chief Medical Officer at the National Alliance of Mental Illness and author of the book, You Are Not Alone.

My guest on this episode is Cariad Lloyd - award-winning comedian, actress and writer, well known for Griefcast, the podcast where she talks to guests about death and grief. She's also the author of the adult grief guide You Are Not Alone, and her debut picture book Where Did She Go?, about a little girl trying to make sense of losing her grandmother, is now out in paperback.Cariad talks to me about why the language we use around death confuses children (and why "she's gone to sleep" or "watching over you" can actually do more harm than good), why so many of us freeze when someone we know is grieving and why the five stages of grief is an outdated idea.We also discuss:Why kids need clear, honest language when someone dies and how to practise those conversationsThe specific grief that comes with becoming a parent when you've lost oneWhat to say (and why you won't make it worse) when a friend is bereavedThe real reason dark humour exists around death and dyingBuy Where Did She Go: https://amzn.to/4bvqXXuBuy You Are Not Alone: https://amzn.to/4uTmfKQListen to Griefcast: https://shows.acast.com/griefcastFollow Cariad on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cariadlloyd/If you enjoyed this episode then please leave a rating or review - and you can follow the podcast to ensure you don't miss future episodes.

Today is Mothers Day in the UK, which can be incredibly challenging for many reasons. Sheri/Betty and I lost our Mum's two months apart last year and decided to share our experiences to help others (who we wish weren't) in this terrible club know that they're not alone. Our intention for sharing this crucial conversation is also to help raise awareness about how ADHD and AuDHD can impact grief and vice versa, how Mother loss can impact our identity, the light that has helped us through the darkest of times, and to demonstrate the power of Peer Support. We are all in this together! This episode is dedicated to Sheri's Mum Mags, my Mum Jennifer, to all Mothers, to all who find today challenging, and to all of us in the Neurodivergent Dead Mums Club.MASSIVE TRIGGER WARNING: Contains swearing, loud laughter, gallows humour, some high pitched sounds, and mentions of very sensitive topics including; trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship and work struggles, mental health struggles, suicidal ideation, school struggles, bullying, greif, bereavement, Mother loss, violence against women, cancer, witnessing end of life, injustice, estrangement, infertility, pregnancy and child loss, identity crisis, weight and image struggles and suicide.

In the tiny farming town of Skidmore, Missouri, nearly fifty people stood on Main Street and watched Ken McElroy die in broad daylight.When police arrived, every single witness said the same thing.“I didn't see anything.”In this episode, Kat dives into the story of the man known as the “town bully,” the decades of fear that built up in Skidmore, and the shocking day when an entire town closed ranks and refused to identify a killer.Grab a drink and join us as we explore the dark side of humanity… with beer.References:In Broad Daylight - By Harry N.

Are you struggling with chronic illness or symptoms that just won't go away, and you've gotten to a point where it just feels like maybe no one understands your symptoms or what you're going through?Do your parents, family, or friends subtly or directly implying that don't really think you have anything? That you're overly sensitive and it's go away if you just chose to stop being so sensitive?Are you tired of explaining your symptoms or what day to day life is like to your family or friends - maybe they don't devalidate you like your family, but they have no idea how to respond other that "I'm so sorry you're going through that", and you feel even more alone than before you shared?Or - have you sat in a doctor's office, hoping someone would finally understand — and been met with blank stares and no answers?If you said yes to any of those questions, this episode is for you.Today's episode starts our series exploring the emotional weight of chronic illness. No protocols. No strategies. No fixing.In this series, I'm sharing the things that anchored me on my journey toward wholeness — even in seasons where I felt like (or literally was) making zero progress.The goal is simple: to slow down and talk about the matters of the heart.To sit together for a moment and reflect — with who you are right now, not the future healed version of you — how do you tend your heart? How do you find emotional, internal health?Because you don't have to be physically healthy first to find emotional health.In today's episode, we're diving into:what chronic illness can feel lonely, even when you're surrounded by loving peopletips on what to do with people who are not loving or supportive on your health journeyexamples of 2 people in the Bible who hit a "I can't take it any longer" moment in their life, how they responded, and what lessons we can learn from itpractical steps to take to combat chronic illness loneliness, with or without the support of your immediate friends and familyIf you've been doing everything you know how to do to get healthy and you're still not better, I hope this episode meets you exactly where you are. Not to fix you. But to strengthen something inside you that illness may have been quietly wearing down.P.S. In this episode, I'll be sharing from my own faith background, because that's where many of these lessons were shaped for me. But these conversations are for anyone who's looking for steadiness, hope, and emotional resilience in the middle of a hard season.

You Are Not Alone in This Journey If you've ever been in a toxic relationship, you know the feeling. Losing pieces of yourself. Questioning your worth. Wondering if you'll ever feel like you again. I know that feeling too — because I've lived it. That experience became the reason I created Healthy Relationships Coaching: a safe, empowering space where women can rebuild their confidence, rediscover self-love, and believe in healthy love again.

Today, my mission is to help women heal, grow, and thrive, just as I did. My Journey to Helping Women Transform Their Lives Through my own healing journey, I developed a deep understanding of relationships, emotional patterns, and personal transformation. My work combines: Personal experience and deep self-growth Professional coaching training Evidence-based transformation tools I became certified in coaching through the world-renowned coaching program led by Tony Robbins and Cloe Madanes, one of the most respected programs in the world. To deepen my ability to create powerful change, I am also becoming a Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) and Hypnotherapy Practitioner, allowing me to help women transform their mindset, beliefs, and emotional patterns on a deeper level. Because real healing happens from the inside out. Your Transformation Starts Here My coaching sessions are designed to guide you through a powerful journey of: ✨ Rebuilding your self-worth ✨ Letting go of toxic relationship patterns ✨ Developing confidence and emotional strength ✨ Creating healthier relationships ✨ Falling in love with your life again Together, we'll help you rewrite your story — one where you feel empowered, valued, and deeply connected to the life you deserve.

Health Calls Season 6, Episode 12 explores how Catholic ministries across the United States are responding to the growing immigration crisis. Host Brian Reardon and Executive Producer Josh Matejka welcome Bill Canny, Executive Director of the USCCB's Secretariat of Migration, to discuss the national You Are Not Alone campaign.  Rooted in Catholic social teaching and launched in response to heightened fear among immigrant communities, the initiative offers support to families facing deportation threats, lack of legal protection, and barriers to accessing health care, schools, and parish life. Canny explains how dioceses nationwide are mobilizing volunteers, parish groups, and Catholic health care to provide accompaniment, resources, and reassurance. With fear driving declines in clinic visits and school attendance across many states, this conversation highlights how the Church is uniting for change, standing with vulnerable immigrants, and affirming their dignity during an especially challenging moment.

Jason Naylor is back! We caught up after four years since we first met at the "You Are Not Alone" murals at South Street Seaport. In our conversation, we discussed his new collaboration with Skechers, featuring his designs on apparel, hats and shoes. He shared insights about his book *Live Life Colorfully*, his passion for painting murals that began in middle  school, and his experiences growing up in Utah and now living in Brooklyn, where he enjoys watching sunrises and sunsets. Jason opened up about his brands commitment to mental health following the loss of his sister to suicide, as well as his past collaborations with brands like Coach, Pepsi, Xbox, and MAC. He also talked about what motivates him daily, from going to the gym to doing simple chores like laundry and dishes, which can change your mindset to not overthink. Our forty-five minutes together flew by, filled with laughter, silliness, and a genuine connection.

HELLO!!! It's been a while, but today I am back with a story... a story about what's been going on in my life as a midlife, perimenopausal woman. What a ride!! Spoiler alert- it's been cray, but it does get better!!Listen in, let me know what you think, and know that YOU ARE NOT ALONE!!

YoutubeSpotifyhttps://supportandfeed.org/BioRising pop-rock artist and multi-talented producer Ed Keiser returns with his new single, “Foreign Land,” a deeply personal and emotionally rich follow-up to his debut release, “You Are Not Alone.” Known for blending reflective storytelling with melodic, immersive production, Keiser once again invites listeners into a vulnerable and honest space shaped by resilience, love, and the human experience. “Foreign Land” expands on the themes first introduced in You Are Not Alone, a song Keiser released to encourage individuals facing loneliness, grief, or difficult circumstances. The debut track resonated widely not only for its message, but also for Keiser's commitment to donate 100 percent of its earnings to Support+Feed and Feeding America. With this new release, he continues building a catalog rooted in empathy, connection, and emotional truth. While You Are Not Alone served as an offering of comfort to those suffering in isolation, Foreign Land turns inward. Written as a dialogue between two lovers navigating trauma, the song was inspired by a painful chapter Keiser and his wife endured together. The verses unfold like a script, capturing an intimate back-and-forth that moves from confusion and fear toward clarity, faith, and renewal. “The song is a conversation between my wife and me,” Keiser explains. “We were going through a very trying time and still finding our way out of it. I wrote the song as an expression for both of us a way to look toward the future with hope. It was my way of helping us breathe again.” Across its four verses, Foreign Land explores uncertainty, spiritual questioning, and the emotional weight of hardship. Lyrics such as “When the pain is so strong, we question why the world is wrong?!” capture the rawness of that moment. Yet the song ultimately lifts upward, offering a path toward restoration through lines like “There will be no pain or fear, only through faith be it clear.” For Keiser, faith served as a grounding force during the creation of the track, though he emphasizes the song's universal message. “It is a song of hope,” he says. “My faith played a central role, but I didn't want to project my beliefs onto others. I embedded them gently, on purpose. The main theme is simple: hang in there—it will get better. It's about love, companionship, and overcoming hardship with your partner or loved one, whatever your beliefs may or may not be.” As both writer and producer, Keiser takes a hands-on approach to his music. Working primarily in Logic Pro, he performs multiple instruments and collaborates with skilled musicians to bring each arrangement to life. His contributions on acoustic guitar, piano, and bass provide a warm foundation, enriched by layered acoustic textures and meticulous production. The track also features acclaimed vocalist and guitarist Jamie Hoover, whose performance adds depth and emotional resonance. With Foreign Land now released, Keiser continues to shape a growing body of work, with plans for a larger project on the horizon. Whether the songs culminate in an EP or full-length album, his goal remains the same: to offer listeners solace, strength, and a reminder that healing is always possible. At the heart of Keiser's work is compassion. To support the approximately 47 million people in the United States experiencing food insecurity—about 1 in 7 Americans, according to the USDA Keiser has donated 100 percent of the earnings from You Are Not Alone and will continue to donate 100 percent of proceeds from Foreign Land to Support+Feed and Feeding America. Foreign Land is available now on all major streaming platforms, with promotional support from Starlight PR.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/creator-to-creators-with-meosha-bean--4460322/support.

“The Rolodex” ATO Family please welcome one of our blue family members that has traveled over 800 miles to take the stage for the listeners. Nearly a year ago the ATO received a heartfelt message of gratitude, and it formed a new friendship many states away. This rollercoaster of a story will touch on many topics and have many emotions but when we get to the “Never Give Up on You” exit music the listener will be reminded that Police work is the same everywhere, the trauma is the same everywhere and even trained first responders need help to survive. In July of 2022 an incident occurred that changed the direction of this officer's life but also reminded him of very old wounds that existed from the life of being in law enforcement for over two decades. The cumulative trauma officers endure daily can be as damaging as a rifle being leveled at you during a traffic stop and if, untreated, can weigh on you and become too much. The weight of the badge is heavy not only for the one that wears it but also the ones they go home to. We have seen the weight ruin relationships with family and friends and we have also seen that NO ONE is immune to the effects of this weight. The message today will be clear: YOU ARE NOT ALONE! Here to present this story today is Joe, Kent, and the Great Dallas SWAT Operator Steve Claggett. Todays guest is the husband to his beautiful wife Jen, father to Chloe and Hailee, and a true public servant to the state of Iowa. Special Shout Out to Cedar Rapids Blair Klostermann as she and Matt recently won their Department's Medal of Valor Award.  Matt Jenatscheck the ATO stage is yours to tell us about the “Rolodex”. Critical Incidents:  The brutal murder of Lynnsey Donald on April 21, 2015. The suspect attacked her, as her 7-year child watched, and stabbed her to death in a parking lot. The suspect received life in prison with no parole. Officer involved shooting in July 2022 in Cedar Rapids Iowa. Acronyms used: EMDR- Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing  

437. LISTEN TO SAVE PALESTINIAN LIVES w/ Our Friend Dr. Thaer Ahmad This is one of the most important conversations we've ever had. Please listen to today's episode and donate here: https://bit.ly/HealthcareinGaza Our friend Dr. Ahmad is a Palestinian-American emergency medical physician and voice for Palestinian dignity who has provided medical relief in the world's most devastated conflict zones, including in Gaza during the bombardments.  1. Every penny of our proceeds from this episode is going to the Palestinian American Medical Association, a 501(c)(3) tax exempt nonprofit organization providing Dr. Ahmad and his brave colleagues the supplies they need to keep healing and saving Palestinian lives.  2. ALSO, POD SQUAD: IF YOU HAVE ANY DOLLARS TO SPARE, PLEASE GIVE DIRECTLY TO THIS LIFESAVING FUND at https://bit.ly/HealthcareinGaza 3. Glennon is personally matching every dollar you give up to $100,000. These brave medical professionals — all of whom are risking their lives to provide relief, care and healing to the children, men, and women of Palestine — do not have the supplies they desperately need to save lives.  We are not helpless in the face of these horrors.  Please let us be the ones who say with our voices and money: WE SEE YOU. YOU ARE NOT ALONE. WE WILL SHARE WITH YOU WHAT WE HAVE SO YOU CAN CONTINUE TO HEAL YOUR PEOPLE.  Follow: @thaerahmad @palestinianama To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.
